Little help here please...movies about Jesus?

Okay, I've exhausted my Web searching skills trying to find the answer to this question.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1oHJR2g7Tw

This video for the song "Mary did you know" appears to contain clips from more than one movie about the life of Jesus (I said appears because I suppose it is possible its the same movie...it's just that the actor playing Jesus doesn't look the same from scene to scene...could be lighting, makeup, facial expression that just makes me think it contains clips from more than one movie).

Anyway, I've been trying to identify the movie associated with a few specific clips. Specifically, the last scene of the video shows Jesus with the backdrop of a body of water turning back and motioning for someone off screen to follow him (starts at 3:11 into the video). What movie is this scene from...

If you don't want to watch the whole video, I'm sure that the clip of him rising out of the water (1:45), the clip where he heals a crippled person's hand (1:57), and the scene where he heals a leper (2:43) are from the same film. (others may be as well, as I said, I just not sure...the only thing I know is that I've never seen any of them! *smile*).

Do you know this movie? Even better, if I'm right and the video contains clips from several movies, do you happen to know which ones?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Update:

Thanks for the answers so far...but I know the specific clips I referenced aren't from passion of the christ (though I think a few are included in this video). The actor I'm referencing clearly isn't the same actor that played Christ in the Passion...his hair is too short, eyes, hair and skin are too light, and he smiles a lot...as I recall, there wasn't much smiling in Passion!

Update 2:

THANKS Who's got my back, yesmar and Mark H...that's it!

...and yesmar, I think you hit on why I wanted to find out what movie that was...something about the eyes and the smile in those few clips told me that the movie might paint a picture of Jesus that's more consistent with my own than most of the movies I've seen...smiling, laughing, joking...full of life and fun to be around! I plan to look for it at the bookstore tomorrow!

Michelle, I did email him...never heard back from him so I thought I'd try my friends on here for a faster response!

Thanks for the tip smarty bear...I was able to find several of the clips in the links you provided...and I actually found that video on a shelf...never watched it for some reason! Even though it wasn't the right movie for my specific question it did answer my other question about whether clips from multiple movies were being used.

    The clips in the middle that are notated 12:13 and 8:3 (these are scripture verses I'm sure) and the end where He is by a lake and beckons "come, follow me" are showing the actor Bruce Marciano in the The Visual Bible " Mathew". I found and purchased my copy from Amazon.com a long while ago. It follows the book of Matthew scripture for scripture, yet is one of the most realistic and true portrayals of Christ that I have ever seen. He laughs and jokes around with the disciples, kids love to be around Him, it's great. I've heard the actor speak at concerts and auditoriums, the role led him to be saved. Thanks for asking.

    The passion of christ, the greatest story ever told, and The Jesus Film.

    I believe it is as Whos Got my back says.

    The Visual Bible: Mathew

    Here is the imdb link:

    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0301359/

    The actor who plays Jesus is Bruce Marchiano. He also plays Jesus in "The Visual Bible: Acts" and the voice of Jesus in the upcoming Easter movie in 2009: "The Lion of Judah"

    Hope that helps.

    Edit: yesmar has it right as well.

    Passion of the Christ?!

    It is because all white people look the same.

    Seriously though, I think you are confusing images of Joseph and maybe apostles with the image of Jesus in the movie.

    it' probbly the actors body double and the movies take several weeks to film. We ourselves don't look identical from day to day. Certain facial features are more dominate than others from day to tay on anybody lack of sleep health and whatever can cause our looks to vary.
