My Last Day

by Jacob Abshire on June 15, 2011

“One of the criminals who were hanged railed at him, saying, ‘Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us!’ But the other rebuked him, saying, ‘Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? And we indeed justly, for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong.’ And he said, ‘Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.’ And he said to him, ‘Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise.’”

Below is a short film imagining these final moments through the eyes of the repentant criminal. It was produced by The JESUS Film Project, a nonprofit organization aimed at sharing “Jesus with everyone in his or her own heart language using media tools and movement building strategies.” Donate to the mission and help spread the word.
