This
movie emphasizes the issue that has plagued the Philippines since before Spain
colonized it hundreds of years ago – it is divided & weakened by
regionalism & inordinate commitment to the family clan. Both Spain &
the US recognized this & exploited it.
This
problem is not limited to one nation.
One
of the strategies that socialists use to advance their agenda is to divide
groups of people based on race, gender, & economics. We can see this very
effective weapon being used on many levels throughout our culture.
Maybe
you never thought about this, but Jesus is the answer for the divisions in our
nation today. He doesn’t change our class (race, gender, socioeconomic etc.) when
we surrender our lives to Him.
What He does is make us part of His all-inclusive, all-encompassing, ever-expanding Kingdom.
There is no better answer to what divides us!
