The Last Temptation of Christ (1988) Poster

Barry Miller: Jeroboam

Quotes 

  • Jerobeam : God took you by the hand and brought you here.

    Jesus : You think it's a blessing to know what God wants? I'll tell you what he wants. He wants to *push* me over! Can't you see what's inside of me? All my sins.

    Jerobeam : We all sin.

    Jesus : Not my sins. I'm a liar. A hypocrite. I'm afraid of everything. I don't ever tell the truth. I don't have the courage. When I see a woman, I blush and look away. I want her; but, I take her, for God, and that makes me proud. And then my pride ruins Magdalene. I don't steal. I don't fight. I don't kill. Not because I don't want to but because I'm afraid. I want to rebel against you, against everything, against God! But, I'm afraid. You want to know who my mother and father are? You want to know who my God is? Fear. You look inside me and that's all you'll find.

    Jerobeam : But the more devils we have inside us the more chance we have to repent.

    Jesus : Lucifer is inside me. He says to me, "You're not the Son of King David. You're not a man. You're the Son of Man. And more, the Son of God. And more than that, God." Do you want to ask me anything else?
