 | The
Matrix (1999)
 | One particular theme I noticed can be summed up in a
passage of scripture which states in so many words "No weapon
formed against thee shall prosper." Morpheus tells Neo that he
should free his mind. And he tells him about the agents and the fact
that noone has ever defeated any of them. Morpheus begins to tell Neo
that where everyone else has failed, he(Neo) will succeed. Neo's
questions Morpheus if he's trying to say that he will dodge bullets. Morpheus says"I'm saying when the time comes, you
won't have to." At the final battle scene, Neo rises from the
"dead" and bullets are fired at him. He stops them; all the
bullets fall without ever harming him. In the end, Neo not only survives
but he transcends the boundaries of the Matrix and life in general. For
me, this is one of the things that God is trying to show His people. Our
faith in Him, our dedication to reading and doing His word---this
empowers us to be the sons of God and to therefore free our minds from
the boundaries(tests, trials, tribulations, temptations) of this world.
You don't have to dodge bullets. Be assured that they are coming, but
because the power of God is in us, we can look at those bullets, stop
them in their tracks, and make them of none effect. (submitted by
