Subject: On Harry Potter? |
Bible Note: Of course, Narnia and Lord of the Rings were written by Christians with an overarching Christian worldview/theme. One thing that has disturbed me is not only the books, but "Little Sorcerer's Kits" marketed by the publishing company as well. One does have to discern where to draw the line, and I am pretty confident that Tim's kids, being supervised by a concerned Christian parent, will not fall into the occult. However, I also agree with Ed that the author of this series also has an agenda beyond just telling a good story. What we as Christians must make sure that we can do is counter this, just like any other false worldview, with the true gospel of Christ Jesus. Educate yourselves on the worldview of Harry Potter, grow in your understanding of God's holy Word, and be able to articulate the truth in the face of lies. It is a God-given opportunity to present the truth of Christianity whenever things of a supernatural/spiritual nature are brought up. --Joe! |
