LISTEN.

I AM STANDING AT THE DOOR
KNOCKING,

AND IF YOU HEAR MY VOICE
AND OPEN THE DOOR,

I WILL COME INTO YOU AND EAT
WITH YOU, AND YOU WITH ME.

>> JOHN: OH, MY GOD.

>> DEMETRIUS: JOHN.

>> JOHN: WRITE.

TO THE CHURCH IN EPHESUS,
LET ANYONE WHO HAS AN EAR

LISTEN TO WHAT
THE SPIRIT IS SAYING.

>> DOMITIAN: I, CESAR AUGUSTUS
TITUS FLAVIUS DOMITIANUS,

LORD OF THE EMPIRE, DO HEREBY
PROCLAIM MYSELF DIVINE.

THIS IS THE DAWN OF A NEW DAY.

THE WHOLE UNIVERSE WILL RECALL
IT AS THE DAY OF NEW BIRTH.

THE ADVENT OF THE REIGN
OF THE GOD DOMITIAN.

>> PRETENDING TO BE GOD
WHEN HE IS STILL ALIVE.

IT'S UNHEARD OF.

>> DOMITIAN: QUINTUS.

>> QUINTUS: MY LORD, AND GOD.

>> DOMITIAN: THESE CHRISTIANS
CONTINUE TO PROFANE MY HONOR

AND GLORY; ESPECIALLY
THOSE IN ASIA MINOR.

YOU ASSURED ME, GENERAL,

THAT THE LAST OF THE APOSTLES
WAS DEAD.

YET, HIS VERY NAME
IS STILL ON THEIR LIPS.

>> QUINTUS: I AM CERTAIN,
MY LORD, JOHN IS DEAD.

>> DOMITIAN: NOW, YOU, YOU SAY
DEAD, BUT THE MYTH LIVES ON.

THE GOD DOMITIAN
WILL NOT TOLERATE THIS.

YOU WILL GIVE THESE
CHRISTIANS AN ULTIMATUM.

THEY HAVE 28 DAYS
TO ACKNOWLEDGE ME PUBLICLY

AS THEIR GOD, THEIR ONLY GOD.

SHOULD THEY RESIST,
YOU WILL PUT THEM TO DEATH.

>> GUARD: TAKE THEM.

DON'T LET THEM ESCAPE.

YOU MUST COME WITH US.

[SCREAMING]

>> IRENE: VALERIUS.

>> VALERIUS: IRENE.

LET'S GO.

>> YOU KNOW THE SITUATION.

ONE MONTH'S TIME.

WE MUST BETRAY OUR FAITH,
PROCLAIM DOMITIAN

AS OUR GOD OR DIE.

WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR?
LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.

>> VALERIUS: BROTHERS, THE
ROMANS ARE OUT THERE NOW

SEIZING EVERY CHRISTIAN THEY
CAN FIND, BUT NO ONE IS GOING

TO FORCE ME OUT.

I CAN'T BELIEVE A CHRISTIAN
DOESN'T HAVE THE RIGHT

TO DEFEND HIS OWN LIFE.

>> DEFEND HIS LIFE?

HUH.

WHAT ABOUT THE
WOMEN AND CHILDREN?

>> WHAT ABOUT THE----

>> IRENE: THE LORD IS CLOSER
TO US NOW THAN YOU THINK.

THIS IS FROM JOHN.

>> GAIUS: THE LORD HAS
RETURNED TO SPEAK TO US

THROUGH HIS APOSTLE, JOHN.

JOHN, IS STILL ALIVE.

>> EVERY CHURCH HAS STARTED
TO RECEIVE LETTERS,

BUT WE HAD TO BE SURE
THEY WERE TRULY FROM HIM.

>> WHY ISN'T HE HERE?

>> IRENE: BECAUSE HE HAS TO
HIDE FROM OUR ENEMIES

LIKE WE DO,
MORE THAN WE DO.

DON'T YOU SEE THAT?

>> SHE'S RIGHT.

[ARGUING]

>> VALERIUS: IRENE,
I WANTED TO TELL YOU--

>> I SAW JOHN ONCE.
DID YOU KNOW THAT?

I WAS ONLY A GIRL AT THE TIME,
BUT I REMEMBER IT SO CLEARLY.

MY MOTHER WENT TO LISTEN TO
HIM AND BROUGHT ME ALONG.

HE CAME OVER TO ME, TO ME,
AND HE TOOK ME IN HIS ARMS

AND HE KISSED ME
ON THE CHEEK,

AND HE WHISPERED
SOMETHING IN MY EAR.

>> VALERIUS: WHAT DID HE SAY?

>> IRENE: MY CHILD,
YOU HAVE THE EYES OF A DOE.

NOW, LOOK AT ME.

I RUN LIKE A DOE CARRYING
HIS LETTERS TO THE BROTHERS.

>> VALERIUS: DO YOU REMEMBER
THE FIRST TIME WE MET?

YOU COULDN'T BELIEVE THAT I
LOVED THE SAME THINGS YOU DID.

>> IRENE: I'M AFRAID,
VALERIUS.

>> VALERIUS: YOU?

>> IRENE: EVERYTHING
IS AT STAKE NOW.

OUR LIVES ARE ABOUT TO CHANGE.

THEY HAVE TO
OR WE WILL DIE,

AND NOTHING WILL
EVER BE THE SAME.

>> VALERIUS: LISTEN TO ME.
I'M LEAVING EPHESUS.

>> IRENE: YOU'RE LEAVING, NOW?

ESCAPING IS WHAT
YOU MEAN TO SAY.

>> VALERIUS: NO.

>> IRENE: I'LL MISS YOU,
VALERIUS.

>> DOMITIAN: GENERAL, AT LAST.

WHAT NEWS DO YOU
BRING TO GOD DOMITIAN.

>> QUINTUS: A SPY, MY LORD,
HAS JUST THIS MINUTE ARRIVED

FROM EPHESUS.

I RAISED HIM MYSELF.

HE'S LIKE A SON TO ME.

>> DOMITIAN: A SON
WHO'S A SPY?

WELL, SPEAK.

YOUR LORD AND GOD
ARE READY TO HEAR.

BRING HIM TO ME.

>> VALERIUS: MY LORD,
THERE ARE RUMORS IN EPHESUS.

IT SEEMS THAT JOHN,
THE APOSTLE, IS STILL ALIVE.

IT APPEARS THAT AN OLD MAN
BY THE NAME OF THEOPHILUS,

ANOTHER CHRISTIAN,
IS IN TOUCH WITH HIM.

STRANGE LETTERS HAVE BEEN----

>> DOMITIAN: SILENCE.

>> QUINTUS: LEGENDS,
MY LORD, LEGENDS.

THEY TAKE A WHILE TO DIE OUT.

IT'S TO BE EXPECTED.

SOMEBODY PRETENDING
TO BE THEIR APOSTLE.

>> DOMITIAN: THIS IS
YOUR DOING, GENERAL.

MY SUPREME PATIENCE
HAS RUN OUT.

I'M SENDING YOU TO TAKE OVER
AS GOVERNOR OF EPHESUS.

CRUSH THE VERMIN
WHO PERPETUATE THESE LIES.

I WANT YOU, I IMPLORE YOU,

ELIMINATE EVERY TRACE
OF THIS IMPOSTOR.

AND QUINTUS.

>> QUINTUS: MY LORD.

>> DOMITIAN: YOU WILL ALSO
CUT OFF YOUR SPY'S HEAD----

>> QUINTUS: BUT MY LORD.

>> DOMITIAN: --IF WHAT HE HAS
SPOKEN REVEALS ITSELF TO BE

UNTRUE.

>> QUINTUS: I SHOULD
HAVE TOLD HIM MYSELF.

DO YOU KNOW WHERE
THE OLD MAN IS AT LEAST?

>> VALERIUS: HE'S A PRISONER
ON THE ISLAND OF PATMOS,

WHICH PUTS HIM UNDER
THE JURISDICTION OF EPHESUS.

>> QUINTUS: YOU'LL HAVE TO GET
YOURSELF ARRESTED

AND SENT OFF TO PATMOS.

>> VALERIUS: NO.

YOU RAISED ME TO BE A SOLDIER,

TO FACE MY ENEMIES
IN THE BATTLEFIELD,

NOT TO GO AROUND
LYING TO EVERYONE ALL THE TIME.

>> QUINTUS: I TURNED YOU INTO
ONE OF THE FINEST OFFICERS

IN THE EMPIRE, AND I HAVE NO
INTENTION OF REPEATING MYSELF.

YOU HAVE YOUR ORDERS.

>> VALERIUS: AND IF I REFUSE.

>> QUINTUS: REFUSE,
YOU CAN'T REFUSE.

YOU CAN'T EVEN THINK
ABOUT REFUSING.

YOU'RE OBLIGED TO ME.

LOOK WHERE YOU ARE TODAY.

YOUR REAL PARENTS WEREN'T JUST
SLAVES, THEY WERE CRIMINALS;

TRAITORS TO THE EMPIRE.

>> VALERIUS: WHAT WERE THEY?

CHRISTIANS?

WERE MY PARENTS CHRISTIANS?

>> QUINTUS: I'M SORRY,
BUT YOU'RE NOT FREE TO CHOOSE.

YOU'RE A SOLDIER.

>> GUARD: WE HAVE TO
KEEP YOU ALIVE FOR NOW.

COME ON, SCRIBES,
EVEN YOU NEED TO EAT.

THAT'S FOR YOU THEOPHILUS.

>> DEMETRIUS: JOHN, I'M AFRAID
TO EVEN CALL YOU BY NAME NOW.

JESUS SAVED US, AND HE BROUGHT
YOU, HIS LAST APOSTLE,

HERE INTO THIS PIT; WHY?

>> GUARD: GIVE ME THAT BOWL.

THIS IS ENOUGH
FOR YOU OLD MAN.

AND CONSIDER IT A GIFT FOR WHAT
LITTLE YOU GET DONE AT THE MINE.

>> DEMETRIUS:
YOU'LL ONLY EARN YOURSELF

MORE ENEMIES LIKE THAT.

>> JOHN: IS THAT
A SIN, DEMETRIUS?

>> DEMETRIUS: I WISH
I HAD YOUR STRENGTH.

>> JOHN: MY STRENGTH.

MY STRENGTH DOES NOT COME
FROM ME, IT COMES FROM THE LORD.

>> IRENE: GAIUS, NO ONE HAS
SEEN JOHN EXCEPT THEOPHILUS.

>> GAIUS: WHO IS THAT?

>> IRENE: HE'S THE ONE
JOHN GAVE THE LETTERS TO.

THE ONE THAT PASSED THE LETTERS
ON TO IONICUS, MY BROTHER,

WHO TRAVELS THERE WITH
SUPPLIES FOR THE PRISON.

>> GAIUS: WHERE
IS THIS THEOPHILUS?

>> IRENE: HE'S A PRISONER
IN THE MINES ON PATMOS.

ALL I KNOW IS THAT
HE'S A VERY OLD MAN.

>> GAIUS: I SEE.

JOHN IS NOT ONLY ALIVE,
HE SPEAKS WITH A PRISONER

ON AN INACCESSIBLE ISLAND.

LISTEN TO ME.

THE LETTERS ARE TOO IMPORTANT.

IRENE, CONVINCE YOUR BROTHER
TO TAKE YOU TO PATMOS.

I WANT YOU TO SPEAK
TO THEOPHILUS YOURSELF.

ONLY YOU CAN DO IT.

>> JOHN: FATHER,
HALLOWED BE YOUR NAME.

YOUR KINGDOM COME.

GIVE US EACH DAY
OUR DAILY BREAD,

AND FORGIVE US OUR SINS,

AS WE FORGIVE EVERYONE
WHO IS INDEBTED TO US.

AND LEAD US NOT
INTO TEMPTATION.

AMEN.

>> DEMETRIUS: JOHN,
TELL ME MORE ABOUT JESUS

AND HOW HE DIED.

>> JOHN: BLOOD WAS RUNNING
FROM HIS HANDS, HIS FEET,

AND HIS SIDE, AND HIS BREATHING
SO SUFFERED,

I COULD NOT BEAR
TO LISTEN TO IT.

IT WAS VERY COLD,
AND A STRANGE WIND CAME UP,

AND HIS MOTHER TOOK HER VEIL TO
SHIELD HERSELF, BUT SHE STAYED.

SHE WOULD HAVE STAYED
UNTIL THE END OF TIME.

AND THEN BEFORE JESUS DIED,
HE OPENED HIS EYES

AND LOOKED AT HER AND SAID,
'MOTHER, DO NOT CRY.'

AND THEN, AND THEN,
HE SAID TO HER,

'MOTHER, THIS IS YOUR SON.'

AND HE LOOKED AT ME.

>> DEMETRIUS: JOHN.

JOHN.

>> GOD: WHAT YOU SEE,
WRITE IT IN A BOOK

AND SEND IT
TO THE CHURCHES OF ASIA.

>> JOHN: LORD.

>> GOD: DO NOT FEAR.

I AM ALPHA AND OMEGA.

THE FIRST AND THE LAST,
AND HE THAT LIVES.

I WAS DEAD, BUT NOW I AM ALIVE,
AND FOREVER MORE,

AND HAVE POWER OVER
DEATH AND HELL.

WRITE THE THINGS
THAT I WILL SHOW YOU.

THEY ARE MESSAGES
FOR ALL CHURCHES.

COME, I WILL SHOW YOU THINGS
WHICH MUST BE HERE AFTER.

>> JOHN: I ENTERED
THE DOOR OF HEAVEN.

THERE WERE 24 OLD MEN
DRESSED IN WHITE ROBES

AND GOLDEN CROWNS
ON THEIR HEADS,

AND FOUR LIVING BEINGS.

BLESS THE LORD,
FIRE, AND HEAT.

BLESS THE LORD,

ALL WATERS.

LET THE EARTH BLESS THE LORD.

BLESS THE LORD, EVERY WIND.

YOU ARE WORTHY, OH LORD,
TO RECEIVE GLORY.

FOR YOU CREATED ALL THINGS.

THERE WAS A SEA OF GLASS
LIKE CRYSTAL.

BEHOLD THE THRONE THAT WAS SET
IN HEAVEN, AND ON THE THRONE

THERE WAS A SCROLL THAT WAS
WRITTEN ON BACK AND FRONT

AND WAS SEALED WITH SEVEN SEALS.

>> YES, TO GUARD THE STORY OF
MAN; THE PAST, THE PRESENT,

THE END, THE TRUTH.

>> JOHN: WHO IS WORTHY TO OPEN
THE SCROLL AND BREAK ITS SEALS.

WHO CAN REVEAL THE TRUE MEANING
OF THE THINGS GOD HAS PREPARED.

>> NO ONE IN HEAVEN, NOR ON
THE EARTH, NOR UNDER THE EARTH,

CAN OPEN THE SCROLL
AND READ IT.

NO ONE IS WORTHY.

>> JOHN: NO.

OH, MY GOD, NO.

I BESEIGE YOU.

SOMEONE MUST BREAK THE SEAL.

IT IS OUR ONLY HOPE.

OUR ONLY HOPE.

>> DEMETRIUS: JOHN.

MASTER.

JOHN.

WHAT DID YOU SEE?

TELL ME.

PLEASE TELL ME.

>> JOHN: I SAW HEAVEN AND
THE SECRET OF ALL THE THINGS

PROTECTED IN GOD'S HANDS.

>> GUARD: MOVE ALONG THERE.

COME ON.

COME ON.

COME ON.

COME ON.

MOVE IT ALONG.

>> GUARD: WAIT.

OPEN THE GATE.

OPEN THE GATE.

>> GUARD: NEW PRISONERS
FROM EPHESUS.

THERE ARE TEN OF THEM.

FIRST FIVE INSIDE
FOR REGISTRATION.

>> IONICUS: DON'T YOU
UNDERSTAND, IRENE?

MAYBE I'M HELPING SOME FRIENDS
OF MINE TO ESCAPE,

BUT I DON'T WANT TO RISK
ANYONE'S LIFE.

BE CAREFUL.

>> IRENE: IONICUS, PLEASE.

>> IONICUS: NOT A WORD
WHEN WE LAND ON PATMOS.

I'LL DO THE TALKING.

THEY ALREADY KNOW YOU CAME
TO HELP ME WITH SUPPLIES,

SO YOU DON'T HAVE
TO EXPLAIN ANYTHING.

>> IRENE: HOW CAN I GET
TO THEOPHILUS, BROTHER?

>> IONICUS: DEMETRIUS WILL
INTRODUCE YOU TO HIM.

AFTER ALL THE LETTERS HE'S
GIVEN ME FOR YOUR CHRISTIANS,

WE'VE BECOME OLD
ACQUAINTANCES.

THERE IT IS, PATMOS.

>> IRENE: IONICUS, IS THE MINE
AS BAD AS THEY SAY?

>> IONICUS:
IT'S MY IDEA OF HELL.

>> JOHN: NEXT.

YOUR NAME?

>>VALERIUS:
VALERIUS FROM EPHESUS.

IF YOU NEED ANOTHER SCRIBE,
I CAN ALSO READ AND WRITE.

>> DEMETRIUS: CHRISTIAN.

WE'RE NOT THE ONES WHO DECIDE.

>> JOHN: YOU KNOW WHAT
YOU HAVE COME HERE FOR.

YOU MAY GO.

>> BRING THEM THROUGH.

>> COME ON, LET'S GO.

>> COME ON, LET'S GO.

>> COME ON, LET'S GO.

>> IONICUS: DEMETRIUS.

>> DEMETRIUS: IONICUS.

AND YOU'RE IRENE.

I'M DEMETRIUS,
AND HE IS THEOPHILUS.

SINCE YOU ARE NEW AT THIS,
LET ME SHOW YOU THE WAREHOUSE

RIGHT AWAY.

COME WITH ME.

IRENE, COME WITH ME.

>> IONICUS: THIS IS
WHAT YOU ASKED ME FOR.

>> DEMETRIUS:
THIS IS FROM JOHN.

GUARD IT WITH YOUR LIFE.

>> IRENE: TRUST ME.

WHEN CAN I SPEAK
WITH THEOPHILUS?

>> DEMETRIUS: WELL,
I DON'T THINK----

>> IRENE: HE'S THE ONLY ONE WHO
KNOWS WHERE JOHN IS HIDING.

I HAVE TO CONVINCE
JOHN TO COME TO US.

>> DEMETRIUS: AND IF
THE ROMANS FIND HIM?

YOU KNOW WHAT THAT WOULD MEAN.

>> IRENE: HE'S THE ONLY
ONE THAT CAN SAVE US.

>> GUARD: WHAT'S
GOING ON IN HERE.

HEY!

>> IONICUS: HURRY UP, SISTER.

WE HAVE TO GET BACK TO
EPHESUS BEFORE DARK.

>> I BELIEVE SOMETHING VERY
IMPORTANT FOR ALL OF US

IS WRITTEN ON THAT SCROLL, SON.

>> VISIONS, TELL THEM
TO OUR BROTHERS

WHO ARE HIDING IN THEIR HOUSES.

TELL THEM TO OUR BROTHERS
IN THE ROMAN PRISONS.

IF JOHN DOESN'T COME HERE,

IF HE DOESN'T SHOW US
THAT HE'S ALIVE,

WILL THEY FIND THE COURAGE
TO KEEP THEIR FAITH?

[ARGUING]

>> GOD'S WORD IS SENT TO US.

>> GAIUS: WE MUST WAIT UNTIL
HIS LETTERS SHOW US GOD'S WILL.

>> THE ROMANS WON'T WAIT.

>> CORVUS: I SEE YOU'VE ALREADY
MADE YOURSELF AT HOME, GENERAL.

>> QUINTUS: THERE'S NO TIME
FOR FORMALITIES, CORVUS.

THE SITUATION HERE HAS
SLIPPED OUT OF CONTROL.

I'M TALKING ABOUT CHRISTIANS
AND THE LIES THEY SPREAD.

YOU'VE DONE NOTHING
TO STOP THEM.

>> CORVUS: WHAT LIES
ARE YOU REFERRING TO?

>> QUINTUS: THAT THE APOSTLE
CALLED JOHN IS STILL ALIVE.

>> CORVUS: THAT ONE.

YES. THEY'LL BE SAYING THAT
FOR A HUNDRED YEARS NOW.

YOU KNOW THESE CHRISTIANS.

THEY LOVE OLD WIVES TALES.

>> QUINTUS:
BUT THE EMPEROR DOESN'T.

YOU ARE REMOVED FROM YOUR
RESPONSIBILITIES AS GOVERNOR.

I AM IN CHARGE IN
EPHESUS STARTING NOW.

>> CORVUS: THIS HARDLY COMES
AS A SURPRISE, GENERAL.

>> QUINTUS: THERE'S SOMETHING
YOU CAN DO FOR ME

WHILE YOU SETTLE YOUR AFFAIRS
BEFORE YOUR DEPARTURE.

STAY OUT OF MY SIGHT.

>> CORVUS: I SEE.

WELL, IF THAT IS ALL,
GOVERNOR, I SHALL BE ON PATMOS.

>> QUINTUS: ONE MORE THING.

HAVE ANYMORE PRISONERS BEEN
TAKEN TO THE ISLAND OF PATMOS?

MORE CHRISTIANS?

>> CORVUS: THERE'S HARDLY
ROOM FOR ANOTHER ONE.

AND THEY ACCUSE ME
OF BEING LENIENT.

WE SHALL MAKE PLENTY OF SPACE
WHEN THE ULTIMATUM EXPIRES.

>> QUINTUS: WE?

WE WON'T DO ANYTHING AT ALL.

I WILL, IF I SO DECIDE.

YOU WON'T TAKE A SINGLE
INITIATIVE; IS THAT CLEAR?

VALERIUS.

>> VALERIUS: THANK YOU.

>> GUARD: YOU, GET DOWN IN
THE MINES AND HELP THE OTHERS.

>> DID YOU GET AN
ANSWER FROM IONICUS?

DID WE GET THE BOAT?

>> LOOK, WE HAVE AN ULTIMATUM
OVER OUR HEADS,

WHICH MEANS THEY'RE
GOING TO KILL US.

>> JUST SEE TO IT
THAT WE HAVE THE BOAT.

THE TUNNEL DOESN'T GO
ALL THE WAY TO EPHESUS.

>> WE'RE JUST AS ANXIOUS
TO GET OUT OF HERE

AS THE REST OF YOU.

WE STILL HAVE THE CONVINCE
THEOPHILUS,

WE'RE NOT MOVING WITHOUT HIM.

>> BE ALREADY, BECAUSE I WON'T
WAIT FOR ANYONE

WHEN THE TIME COMES.

>> HEY.

[ COUGHING ]

>> WHERE DO YOU
THINK YOU'RE GOING?

>> VALERIUS: WHERE DOES IT GO?

>> STICK YOUR NOSE WHERE IT
DOESN'T BELONG,

AND YOU'LL
END UP LOSING IT.

>> SUSTINIS: WE DIE
IN HERE, BIT BY BIT.

>> VALERIUS: YOU'VE
BEEN HERE FOR A WHILE.

DO YOU KNOW EVERYBODY HERE?

>> SUSTINIS: MORE OR LESS.

>> VALERIUS: MUST
BE HARD AT YOUR AGE.

FOR YOU AND THE OTHER ONE.

THEOPHILUS, RIGHT?

>> SUSTINIS: HE'S ABOUT
THE ONLY HUMAN BEING

YOU'LL FIND 'ROUND HERE.

>> GUARD: HEY, YOU HAVEN'T
DONE A LICK OF WORK ALL DAY,

AND NOW YOU'RE
WASTING HIS TIME, TOO.

NOW, GET UP IF YOU
WANT TO EARN YOUR FIDDLES.

I SAID GET UP.

GET UP NOW OR YOU'LL
BE SORRY FOR IT.

>> VALERIUS: DON'T EVER
TOUCH THAT OLD MAN AGAIN.

>> GUARD: GUARDS!
GUARDS! GUARDS!

YOU'LL SEE WHAT'S
IN STORE FOR YOU.

AND DON'T SAY YOU
DIDN'T DESERVE IT.

>> VALERIUS: AH! AH!

>> HE'LL DIE.

>> GUARD: STOP.

BE QUICK.

>> VALERIUS: WHY
DO YOU DO THIS?

>> YOU SAID YOU WERE
A CHRISTIAN. YOU SHOULD KNOW.

>> VALERIUS: ALL I KNOW
IS THAT I'M GOING TO DIE

IN THIS HOLE.

>> JOHN: YOU WERE AFRAID
TO BE IN A CAGE,

BECAUSE YOU HAVE KNOWN
THE VALUE OF LIBERTY.

>> VALERIUS: NO, I THOUGHT
I WAS FREE, BUT I'M A SLAVE.

I'LL ALWAYS BE A SLAVE.

>> JOHN: YOUR SERVITUDE
DOES NOT DEPEND ON ROME.

NO ROMAN CAN EVER FREE YOU.

>> VALERIUS: WHAT DO
YOU KNOW ABOUT ME?

>> JOHN: YOUR CHAINS
ARE IN YOUR HEART.

YOU DRAG THEM AROUND
WITH YOU WHEREVER YOU GO.

YOU MUST FREE YOURSELF.

>> VALERIUS: WHO ARE YOU?

>> GUARD: THAT'S ENOUGH.

>> VALERIUS: WHO ARE YOU?

WHY DO YOU LIE
TO YOUR BROTHERS?

YOU WRITE THE LETTERS.

JOHN IS DEAD.

>> JOHN: MY LORD, I AM
THE LAST OF YOUR APOSTLES ALIVE.

YET, YOU KEEP ME
AS IF IT WERE MY TOMB.

LORD, YOU REVEALED
YOUR TRUTH TO ME,

TRUTH THAT CAN FREE US ALL.

YET, YOU HOLD ME HERE WHERE
EVERY LIBERTY IS DENIED.

DID YOU NOT CALL ME TO LEAD
MY BROTHERS TO YOUR KINGDOM?

AND WHY DO THEY THINK THAT
I HAVE ABANDONED THEM?

THEY'RE LOST.

LORD, FORGIVE THEM.

THEY ARE ONLY HUMAN.

AND I AM ONLY HUMAN.

FORGIVE US ALL.

OH, GOD. LIFT THE SHADOW
FROM MY HEART.

MAKE ME WORTHY OF YOUR CALL.
MAKE ME WORTHY OF YOU.

MAKE ME WORTHY OF THE LIGHT.

>> DO NOT WEEP.

LOOK, THE MESSIAH HAS TRIUMPHED,
AND SO HE WILL OPEN THE SCROLL

AND ITS SEVEN SEALS.

>> COME, GO TRIUMPHANT,
TO TRIUMPH ONCE MORE.

>> HERE IS THE POWER
OF THE RISEN CHRIST,

THE RIDER WHO WINS OVER DEATH.

>> COME, TAKE AWAY
PEACE FROM EARTH.

>> JOHN: WHO WAS THAT?

>> IT WAS WAR.

HE'S THE ONE WHO SETS
PEOPLE KILLING EACH OTHER.

>> JOHN: HOW CAN
HE HAVE SUCH POWER?

>> SO THEY KNOW WHERE
THE PATHS OF HATE LEAD.

>> COME, A CRUST OF BREAD
FOR A WORKER'S WAGES.

>> JOHN: HE SPREADS HUNGER
AND MISERY THROUGHOUT THE WORLD.

>> AND INJUSTICE,
THE FRUITS OF SELFISHNESS.

>> COME.

>> NOW, THE WORSE
SCOURGE OF THEM ALL.

>> JOHN: WHAT IS HIS POWER?

>> THE MOST TERRIFYING
POWER THERE IS,

THE POWER OF DEATH TO REMIND
THE WORLD THAT ONLY IN GOD

THERE IS LIFE

SO THAT MAN MAY TURN TO
HIM AGAIN AND PRAISE HIM.

>> JOHN: WHO CAN
STOP ALL OF THIS?

>> ONLY THE LOVE OF HIM
WHO GAVE HIS LIFE FOR US.

DEATH WILL NOT
HAVE THE LAST WORD.

>> JOHN: HE WHO BELIEVES
SHALL HAVE ETERNAL LIFE.

GOD IS LOVE.

AND WHOSOEVER LIVES IN LOVE
LIVES IN GOD, AND GOD IN HIM.

IF WE BEAR ALL PAIN AND
SUFFERING WITH FAITH AND LOVE,

WE WILL FIND TRUE
JOY IN THE LORD.

[ CRICKETS CHIRPING ]

[ ROOSTER CROWING ]

>> WE'VE DECIDED TO LEAVE
EPHESUS BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.

MAY GOD PROTECT US ALL.

LET'S GO.

COME ON.

>> WHAT DOES APOSTLE
MEAN, FATHER?

>> IT MEANS THAT JOHN IS
A VERY SPECIAL PERSON.

>> LIKE AN ANGEL?

>> NO, HE'S A PERSON
LIKE YOU AND ME.

IT'S HIS LIFE THAT IS SPECIAL.

JESUS CHOSE JOHN
WHEN HE WAS STILL A BOY,

AND JOHN WAS JESUS'S
FAVORITE DISCIPLE.

HE NEVER LEFT JESUS'S SIDE,
EVEN WHEN HE WAS ON THE CROSS.

AND ALL THE OTHERS HAD FLED
BECAUSE THEY WERE AFRAID.

>> I WOULDN'T BE AFRAID
TO STAY BY JESUS'S SIDE.

>> I KNOW.

>>GAUIS: IRENE, GO BACK
TO PATMOS.

FIND THEOPHILUS.
FIND JOHN.

>>[CHATTER]

[BIRDS SQUACK]

>>THIS MAP GUIDE YOU
TO THE BOAT LANDING.

WE'RE GOING THE NIGHT
AFTER TOMORROW.

>>IRENE: DEMETRIUS.

>>DEMETRIUS: THEOPHILUS HAS LEFT
A LIST OF SUPPLIES IN THE BACK.

HE'S NOT WELL TODAY.

>>IRENE: WHAT HAPPENED
TO VALERIUS?

>>DEMTRIUS: COME WITH ME.

>>I'LL WATCH OUT FOR THE GUARDS.

VALERIUS TRIED TO DEFEND
ANOTHER PRISONER.

THAT PUT HIM IN ISOLATION
FOR FOUR DAYS.

>>IRENE: OH MY GOD.

JOHN'S HAD ANOTHER VISION?

>>DEMETRIUS: YES.

>>IRENE: AND HE GAVE THIS
TO YOU IN PERSON?

>>DEMETRIUS: NO, HE PASSED IT
ONTO THEOPHILUS.

>>IRENE: HOW DOES HE DO IT?

I HAVE TO SEE JOHN.

HE HAS TO COME TO US.

I TOLD YOU THAT.

HOW DOES THEOPHILUS DO IT?

TELL ME.

>>DEMETRIUS: IT'S THROUGH
A FRIEND -- A GUARD, I THINK.

>>IRENE: A GUARD?

>>DEMETRIUS: YES,
HE'S A CONVERT.

HE COMES FROM
LAODICEA.

>>IRENE: IONICUS TOLD ME
THE GUARDS ARE ALL FROM ROME.

IT'S NOT A GUARD.

THERE'S NO ONE,
NO ONE AT ALL.

YOU TWO INVENTED IT ALL
TO KEEP HIS NAME ALIVE,

BUT JOHN IS DEAD.

>>DEMETRIUS: NO, JOHN IS ALIVE.

HE'S AS ALIVE AS YOU AND ME,
TRUST ME.

>>IRENE: THEN EXPLAIN TO ME
HOW HE--

>>JOHN: CHILD, YOU STILL
HAVE THE EYES OF A DOE.

>>IRENE: JOHN! PASTOR!
THANK GOD I FOUND YOU.

WE NEED YOU SO BADLY.

YOU ARE THE ONLY WITNESS
TO THE RESURRECTION OF OUR LORD.

THEY WILL LISTEN TO YOU.

YOU WILL SAVE US.

>>JOHN: DON'T CRY, MY CHILD.

DON'T CRY.

ONLY THE LORD CAN SAVE US,

BUT NOW HE WANTS ME HERE TO DENY
MY OWN NAME AND TESTIFY TO HIS.

>>IRENE: IF YOU STAY HERE,
YOU WILL BE KILLED.

LISTEN, THERE'S A PLAN
TO ESCAPE.

COME WITH US AND TELL
OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS

WHAT GOD WANTS FROM US.

THERE'S NO OTHER WAY.

>>JOHN: I CANNOT ESCAPE
FROM THE WILL OF THE LORD,

BUT I WILL CONTINUE TO SEND YOU
HIS MESSAGES

UNTIL THE FINAL
MYSTERY IS REVEALED.

PLEASE SHARE MY SECRET
WITH ME.

>>CORVUS: WHOA.

>>GUARD: CORVUS,
JUST WHAT WE NEED.

>>WE HAVE THE BOAT.
IT'S FOR TONIGHT.

>>WHERE'S THE MAP?

>>HOLD ON, WE STILL
HAVE TO CONVINCE THEOPHILUS.

>>I'M NOT GOING TO ROT IN HERE.

GIVE ME THE MAP.

>>PUT IT ON YOUR HEAD.

IT'LL KEEP YOU FROM FRYING.

I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU DIE.

I'M GOING TO NEED YOU NOW.

LOOK, THOSE OTHER CHRISTIANS
DON'T HAVE ANY BRAINS.

WHEN THEY TAKE YOU BACK
TO THE CELL TONIGHT,

GET YOUR HANDS ON THE MAP
THEY'RE HIDING.

>>CORVUS: ENOUGH!

WHY DO YOU TEND HIM?

HE'D AS SOON CUT YOUR THROAT.

YOU STUBBORN FOOL.

TAKE THIS OLD MAN
AND PUT HIM IN THE CAGE.

LET THE OTHER ONE GO.

>>QUINTUS: IT IS CLAIMED
THAT IN LAODICEA,

THEY SPEAK OF NO ONE
BUT JOHN, THE IMMORTAL,

HENCE MY DECREE OF DOMITIAN
DIVINE EMPEROR OF ROME.

SAID PROVINCE SHALL
BE PURGED BY FIRE

AND NOT A SINGLE BLADE OF GRASS
BE LEFT STANDING.

HE CAN'T BLOT OUT
AN ENTIRE LAND.

AN ULTIMATUM ONE DAY,
A DECREE THE NEXT --

THIS IS SHEER MADNESS.

>>WHAT DO I TELL THE EMPEROR?

>>QUINTUS: TELL HIM THAT HIS
ORDERS WILL BE CARRIED OUT.

>>GUARD: A MAP OF THE COAST!

WHERE DID IT COME FROM?

>>GUARD: NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT IT.

>>FOOLISH OF YOU.

>>CUT THEIR RATIONS.

>>GUARD: BACK TO WORK.

>>QUINTUS: ATTACK EVERY
CHRISTIAN VILLAGE IN THE AREA.

KILL ALL THE CHRISTIANS.

THEY'RE ORDERS FROM
THE EMPEROR DOMITIAN HIMSELF

AND I WANT THEM CARRIED OUT.

>>[GUARD YELLING DIRECTIONS]

>>MOMMY, LOOK --
LOOK, IT'S ROMANS.

>>OH MY GOD,
IT'S ROMAN SOLDIERS!

>>GET THE CHILDREN!
WE MUST GET THE CHILDREN!

[CRYING]

>>IRENE: NO, GOD!

IS THIS YOUR WILL, LORD?

JOHN!

>>[CHANTING]

>>[CHANTING]

>>JOHN: WHEN LORD WILL INNOCENT
BLOOD NO LONGER BE SPILLED?

>>GOD:
BE PATIENT
A LITTLE LONGER

UNTIL THE NUMBER OF YOUR
BROTHERS IS COMPLETE.

NOW, SHARE MY VICTORY
OVER DEATH.

>>GUARD: GET UP, TIME TO WORK.
LET'S GO!

>>SOSTHENES, COME ON, OLD MAN.

YOU'LL MAKE IT.

COME ON.

SOSTHENES?

>> SOSTHENES IS DEAD!

SOSTHENES IS DEAD!

SOSTHENES IS DEAD!

SOSTHENES IS DEAD!

>>GUARD: STOP THAT!

GET BACK TO WORK!

WHERE DO YOU THINK
YOU ARE GOING?

>>JOHN?

JOHN?

DID YOU HEAR?

SOSTHENES IS DEAD.

>>JOHN: NO, NO.
HE IS ALIVE.

HE IS STANDING IN
THE PRESENCE OF GOD.

>>HERE'S OUR CHANCE!

OLD SOSTHENES HAS GIVEN
US THE KEY FOR FREEDOM.

COME ON, IT'S NOW OR NEVER.

COME ON!

>>WHEN WE GET TO THE PORT
WE' LL TRY TO SEIZE A BOAT.

LET'S GO!

HERE WE GO.

>>THEY FOUND OUT!

>>[SCREAMING]

>>[SCREAMING]

>>CORVUS: HOW STUPID OF THEM

TO THINK THEY'D
CATCH ME UNPREPARED.

>>GUARD: YOU CAN GO BACK
TO YOUR FRIENDS NOW.

>>CORVUS: IF ANYONE ELSE
ATTEMPTS TO ESCAPE,

I'LL HAVE TO SACRIFICE
OTHERS ALONG WITH HIM.

AS IT IS, THE ULTIMATUM
EXPIRES IN A COUPLE OF DAYS

AND WE WILL BE FORCED
TO KILL EVERY ONE OF YOU

WHO STILL REFUSES TO GIVE UP
YOUR CHRISTIAN GOD.

YOU HAVE TWO DAYS.

WHAT A WASTE OF BREATH,
WHAT A WASTE OF MAN POWER.

>>JOHN, GIVE ME YOUR BLESSING
AND PREPARE ME FOR DEATH.

I AM NOT AFRAID ANYMORE.

MAY THE LORD FORGIVE ME
FOR MY SINS.

I HAVE KNOWN YOU,
HIS FRIEND.

I BOW TO HIS WILL.

>>BLESSED ARE YOU POOR,

FOR YOURS IS THE
KINGDOM OF GOD.

BLESSED ARE YOU THAT HUNGERNOW, FOR YOU SHALL BE SATISFIED.

BLESSED ARE YOU THAT WEEP NOW,
FOR YOU SHALL LAUGH.

THE WICKED WILL NOT STAND FIRM
AT THE JUDGMENT

NOR SINNERS IN THE GATHERING
OF THE UPRISING.

THE PATH OF THE WICKED
IS DOOMED,

CHAFF BLOWN AROUND
BY THE WIND.

>>JOHN: WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE?

WHERE HAVE THEY COME FROM?

>>THEY HAVE BEEN SAVED.

THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE
BEEN THROUGH A GREAT TRIAL.

THEY HAVE WASHED THEIR
ROBES WHITE AGAIN

IN THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB.

THEY WILL NEVER HUNGER
OR THIRST AGAIN

BECAUSE THE LAND WILL BE
THEIR SHEPHERD

AND GUIDE THEM
TO THE SPRINGS OF LIFE,

AND GOD WILL WIPE AWAY
ALL TEARS FROM THEIR EYES.

THERE -- LOOK -- THE LAMB,
THE MESSIAH

IS BREAKING THE SEVENTH SEAL.

>>JOHN?

JOHN?

ANSWER ME, JOHN.

>>JOHN: THE LAMB HAS BROKEN
THE SEVENTH SEAL?

THERE WAS SILENCE,
SILENCE IN HEAVEN.

>>I MUST BE OUT OF MY MIND.
WE'LL NEVER MAKE IT.

>>IRENE: WE HAVE TO MAKE IT.

>>GUARD: YOU, COME HERE.
NOW LISTEN...

>>IRENE: VALERIUS.

>>VALERIUS: IRENE!

>>IRENE: WE HAVE TO GO NOW.

JOHN -- JOHN,
COME WITH US.

>>JOHN: I HAVE TO STAY.

>>VALERIUS: YOU CAN'T.

IF YOU STAY HERE,
IT MEANS DEATH.

>>JOHN: I HAVE TO STAY HERE.

>>IRENE: PLEASE COME WITH US.

>>JOHN: THE LORD
HAS SPOKEN TO ME.

THE SEVENTH SEAL --

PERHAPS THIS IS MY LIFE
FOR THE ROMANS TO TAKE.

>>JOHN, GOD DOESN'T WANT YOU
TO DIE NOW.

HE'S FREEING US.

>>VALERIUS: WE'VE GOT TO HURRY.

>>IRENE: WE ARE IN YOUR HANDS.

SAVE US, I BEG YOU.

I BEG YOU IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

>>PLEASE JOHN.

PLEASE JOHN.

>>JOHN: GOD HELP ME
IF I AM MAKING A MISTAKE.

COME.

>>IRENE: YES.

>>WHICH WAY?

>>GUARD: STOP.

STAY WHERE YOU ARE.

THERE ARE FEWER
GUARDS ON THAT SIDE.

AND I HAVE REMOVED
THE CENTURIES FROM THE GATE.

NOW MOVE.

>>GUARD: GUARDS!

PRISONERS ARE ESCAPING!

>>CORVUS: KILL THEM ALL!

>>GUARD: THOSE TWO GROUPS,
CUT THEM OFF

BEFORE THEY GET
TO THE PORT.

>>THIS WAY!

>>THEY FOUND OUR TRAIL.

LEAVE ME HERE.

I'M NOT GOING TO MAKE IT ANYHOW.

I'LL DELAY THEM, PLEASE.

IT'S OUR ONLY CHANCE.

>>JOHN: IN THE NAME OF JESUS,
YOUR SINS ARE FORGIVEN.

>>AMEN.

>>JOHN: GO WITH GOD.

>>VALERIUS: JOHN WILL NEVER
KEEP UP.

I'LL STAY WITH HIM.

THE REST OF YOU,
GO AHEAD TO THE BOAT.

WE'LL MEET YOU THERE.

>>VALERIUS IS RIGHT.

>>IRENE: NO, WE SHOULD
STAY TOGETHER.

I'M NOT LEAVING JOHN.

>>VALERIUS: YES YOU ARE.

THIS TIME YOU LISTEN
TO ME, SISTER.

LET'S GO.

>>JOHN: LET HER DO WHAT
HER HEART COMMANDS.

>>VALERIUS: HURRY,
THEY'RE ALMOST HERE.

LET'S GO.

>>GUARD: TURN AROUND!

>>GUARD: SEIZE HIM!

>>GUARD: WHERE ARE THE OTHERS?
ANSWER ME!

THAT WAY.

>>VALERIUS: QUICK, LET'S GO.

>>THERE -- OVER THERE.

>>JOHN: OH LORD.

LORD, FORGIVE ME.

I THOUGHT YOU HAD NO MORE
VOICE LEFT FOR ME.

[HORNS]

[HORNS]

>>SALVATION HAS BEEN
WON BY OUR GOD

AND ALL AUTHORITY
FOR HIS CHRIST,

FOR ALL EVIL HAS BEEN
DEFEATED FOREVERMORE.

[CHATTERING]

[CHATTERING]

>>VALERIUS: THEY'RE HERE.

>>JOHN: DO NOT BE AFRAID
OF THE TRUTH

IF YOU DON'T WANT
TO REMAIN A SLAVE.

>>VALERIUS: THE TRUTH
COULD KILL YOU.

>>JOHN: ONLY THE TRUTH
WILL FREE YOU.

>>IRENE: VALERIUS.

>>VALERIUS: SOLDIERS OF ROME!

CORVUS IS A TRAITOR
AND THIEF.

I AM HERE BY ORDER
OF THE NEW GOVERNOR

FROM EPHESUS
QUINTUS MAXIMUS

TO UNMASK THE REAL ENEMIES
OF THE EMPIRE

AND I ORDER YOU TO ARREST HIM
IN THE NAME OF THE EMPEROR.

>>CORVUS: SEIZE HIM!

>>VALERIUS: IF YOU DO SO,

YOU WILL ANSWER TO
QUINTUS PERSONALLY.

>>GUARD: LOOK!

SHIP'S PLAYING
THE IMPERIAL COLORS.

>>CORVUS: QUINTUS.
I SAID SEIZE HIM!

THAT'S AN ORDER.

KILL HIM!

KILL HIM!

>>GUARD: ARREST THEM ALL.

QUINTUS WILL JUDGE THEM
IN THE NAME OF THE EMPEROR.

[DOCKING CHATTER]

>>QUINTUS: WHAT HAS BEEN
GOING ON HERE?

WHO ARE THEY?

>>GUARD: THESE ARE THE PRISONERS
WHO HAVE TRIED TO ESCAPE.

ONE OF THEM CLAIMS
HE KNOWS YOU.

>>VALERIUS: IF THEY HAVE TO DIE,
I CHOOSE TO DIE ALONG WITH THEM.

I AM A CHRISTIAN,
THE SON OF CHRISTIANS.

I WILL ACCEPT YOUR SENTENCE
UNDER THE LAWS OF ROME.

>>QUINTUS: REMOVE THEIR CHAINS.

>>GUARD: WHAT?

THEY MUST DIE.

IT'S THE ORDER
OF THE EMPEROR.

>>QUINTUS: DOMITIAN
HAS BEEN ASSASSINATED.

>>NERVA IS THE EMPEROR NOW.

HE HAS DECLARED AN AMNESTY
FOR ALL PRISONERS

AND AN END TO THE PERSECUTION
OF CHRISTIANS AND JEWS.

REMOVE THEIR CHAINS.

[SCREAMING]

>>QUINTUS: YOU'RE A FREE
MAN NOW.

YOUR FATHER ADMIRES
YOUR COURAGE, SON.

>>VALERIUS: NOW YOU
KNOW THE TRUTH.

I LIED TO YOU.

I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND.

I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND MYSELF,
BUT NOW MY EYES ARE OPEN.

I LOVE YOU, IRENE.

I LOVE YOU.

CAN YOU FORGIVE ME?

>>JOHN: IRENE!

JESUS TOLD ME ONCE
THAT GOD FORGIVES THE MOST

THOSE WHO LOVE THE MOST.

>>IRENE: I'VE ALWAYS
LOVED YOU, VALERIUS.

>>QUINTUS: YOUR SUFFERING
IS OVER.

YOU'RE FREE TO GO OLD MAN.

>>JOHN: MY NAME IS JOHN.

JOHN: GOD WILL
ALWAYS WIN, FRIENDS.

HIS VICTORY OVER EVIL
IS THE ROOT OF OUR FAITH.

THE WORDS OF JESUS COME TRUE
BEFORE OUR EYES EVERYDAY

AND WILL CONTINUE TO COME TRUE
UNTIL THE END OF TIME.

BLESSED IS HE WHO OBEYS HIS
COMMANDMENT TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER

AND MAKE A BETTER WORLD.

MAY THE GRACE OF THE
LORD JESUS BE WITH YOU.

AMEN.

AND THEN I SAW A NEW HEAVEN
AND A NEW EARTH.

I SAW THE HOLY CITY,

THE NEW JERUSALEM COME
DOWN OUT OF HEAVEN FROM GOD

PREPARED AS A BRIDE
FOR HER HUSBAND.

HERE, GOD LIVES
WITH HUMAN BEINGS

AND HE WILL MAKE
HIS HOME AMONG THEM.

THERE WILL BE HIS PEOPLE
AND HE WILL BE THEIR GOD,

GOD WITH THEM.

AND HE WILL WIPE AWAY
THE TEARS FROM THEIR EYES

AND THERE WILL BE NO MORE DEATH,

NO MORE MOURNING
OR SADNESS OR PAIN.

THE WORLD OF THE PAST IS GONE.

THE SPIRIT AND THE BRIDE SAY,
'COME!'

LET ALL WHO ARE THIRSTY
COME AND ALL WHO WANT IT

MAY HAVE THE WATER OF LIFE
AND HAVE IT FREE.'

AMEN.

COME LORD JESUS.
