Contributed by Sermon Central on Oct 25, 2005 (message contributor)
In the movie John Q, Denzell Washington plays John Q and during the movie his son becomes develops a heart disease. Throughout the movie it is shown that because the family does not have enough money and there are not enough heart donors the child will not make it. Finally Denzell holds up the emergency room taking hostages and locking all of the doors. When he still cannot get someone to give his son a heart and where the illustration clip should come in Denzell says i will do anything for my son. I will die so he won’t it is an amazing scene and you can see the love on denzel face he will literally do anything so his son will live. I think it is a great representation of Christ’s love for us.
