All of a sudden, I\u2019m reading the script \u2014 what happened to \u2018God\u2019?<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Continuing, Caviezel said that he stood up for his faith when pressed by Disney, saying that he told the company,\u00a0\u201c<em>I had to say no, I can\u2019t do this. Right is right, wrong is wrong.<\/em>\u201d Disney didn\u2019t like that. According to Caviezel, the Disney personnel involved in the film\u2019s production said, when he told them to keep the God references in the script,\u00a0\u201c<em>So, you\u2019re one of those?<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But he held his ground and so Disney backed off. \u201c<em>I held my ground. And by God, they backed off. And, you know, we\u2019ve got to be strong Christians like that.

He, when making that comment, compared it to\u00a0<em>The Passion<\/em>, saying: \u201c<em>But like The Passion, they won\u2019t touch this one; your name may not appear down here in this World\u2019s Hall of Fame. In fact, you may be so unknown that no one knows your name. The Oscars in the praise of men may never come your way.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Continuing, he noted that though there might not be earthly rewards, there will be rewards in Heaven for standing up for the faith while on Earth, saying, \u201c<em>But don\u2019t forget, God has rewards the hill handout someday this crowd on Earth, they will soon forget when you\u2019re not at the top, they\u2019ll cheer like man until you fall, and then the praise will stop not God. He never does forget, and in his Hall of Fame, by just believing in his son forever, there\u2019s your name.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added that he\u2019d rather be known and loved by God than by men on Earth, saying, \u201c<em>I tell you friend, I wouldn\u2019t trade my name, however small that\u2019s written there beyond the stars in that celestial Hall, for all the famous names on Earth at the glory that they share. I\u2019d rather be in the unknown here and have my name up there. You know, when we I remember who I was going to tell you earlier, when they\u2026we were so attacked on The Passion, finally, when it came out. And this is two years now after it was we started. And all of a sudden, all the theaters were just people were driving to the theaters. And it was like, you know, CNN didn\u2019t make the people stop. Ms. NBC didn\u2019t. And all of the bad propaganda media, people listen from their hearts. And that started on Ash Wednesday, 2004. They saw a number. This is an R rated film, R rated film referring to the passion of the passionate price. And we had more on that day. The next day was insane. Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also called on people to start standing up to wokeness to defeat the left and preserve something worth saving for their children, saying,\u00a0\u201c<em>And this is the take a cultural change. If we were to get rid of trafficking and abortion and just killing children. I mean, this face is killing children. By they\u2019re talking about killing a baby 27 days after it\u2019s born. Why? even think about that? You think that saves the mother\u2019s life? For some reason? How does that save the mother\u2019s life? It\u2019s absolutely appalling. And we\u2019re done with all your pedo laws. We\u2019re done with your woke. Okay. So there\u2019s got to be something from this fire that comes out. And, and, and comes into into this new way of what we\u2019re going to do and I believe angels the first beginning of this whole thing, and that what are your children going to watch? What are we going to leave for them?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Featured image credit: screengrab from the embedded video<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Actor Jim Caviezel, the star of 2002\u2019s\u00a0The Count of Monte Cristo, a film adaptation of&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":275,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-274","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"aioseo_notices":[],"views":46,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/274","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=274"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/274\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/275"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=274"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=274"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=274"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
