The most direct and significant faith issue is the film's representation of repentance and redemption following an experience of God, as displayed by one character, the failure of another to do likewise, and the consequences of each. 

The reaction of others toward those who repent, are redeemed, and follow the call and righteousness of God. Giving up the ways and wages of the old life to accept the Way and blessings of following God and seeking the Kingdom of God. 

No one is beyond God's seeking one to repent and receive grace and redemption, and the witness and impact such redemption can have on others.

The ultimate failure of Worldly powers and promises vs the faithfulless of God.  

The place and potential of secular films to present faith teaching in ways that speak to persons outside the Church and faith.
