Re: 12 reasons Harry Potter should be banned

The author is a witch in real life. This is how she evades having her tomes of evil and sorcery banned. Or maybe I'm just a witch-hunter at heart.

Re: 12 reasons Harry Potter should be banned

I still do not understand why these books are so evil, can someone kindly explain to me?

Go back and read this thread from the beginning.


Also, please make a thread of your own in the "Introductions" section of the forum, so that we can properly greet you. Tell us about yourself, your church, and how you came to find Jesus.

Re: 12 reasons Harry Potter should be banned

so am i damned to hell now?
is there anyway to be forgiven?
im sorry for my sins!

Just beg Jesus for forgiveness. Here's a simple prayer:

Dear Lord Jesus,

I know that I am worthless. I know I am completely pathetic and miserable, dirty, evil, sinful, disgusting. I am the lowest of lows. I am a worm. Less than a worm. I don't even deserve to live. In short, I am exactly as you have created me. Dear wonderful, perfect God, I beg you for forgiveness for having been born imperfectly. I beg and plead down on my knees that I not be sent into a fire to be tormented and tortured forever and ever and ever because a distant ancestor of mine ate the wrong fruit. I ask You, who are perfect in mercy, to please try to find some way of receiving me into Your Eternal Kingdom even though I have disgraced You by not worshiping and adoring you up till now. So I ask that you pour the blood of Your only Son who is Yourself and died temporarily on the cross for me. I understand that this is the only way You could ever forgive me, oh Divine Master. I accept You as my personal savior, from now on I'll do absolutely everything you tell me to do. I'll follow the rules of the Bible to the letter and never sin again. I pray this in the name of You and of Your Father, and of the Holy Spirit who conceived You and is also You. Amen.

If you repeated those words just now, then I tell you, you have been saved! Now all you need to do is get baptized and never sin again, and you're in the clear.

Even if you read it as a child. No True Christian would ever allow their child look in the direction of such satanic material, let alone read it.

Re: 12 reasons Harry Potter should be banned

Reading ANY of those books is like begging Satan to come to hell.

Re: 12 reasons Harry Potter should be banned

Even if people's beliefs are different, who are you to judge us? Does it not say in the bible to not judge others? Or am I mistaken for what was formerly shown to me.

How unusual. An atheist with a one-eyed view.

Mrs Phebe Dewitt.

PS. We ARE to JUDGE ANYTHING AGAINST GOD AS IT IS RIGHTEOUS JUDGEMENT!


Luke 7:43
and the Lord Jesus said unto him: "Thou hast rightly judged."

Luke 12:57
"Yea, and why even of yourselves judge ye not what is right?"

1Cor.2:15-16
"But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ."

Rom.6:13, 16, 18
13. "Yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God."

16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves as servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?"

18 Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness."

II Cor.11:15
Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works."

2 Tim. 2:15
"Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."


1John 2:29
"If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of Him."


.......

Do you need more to show you that we are well within the right of God to do so?

God's law

Leviticus 19:15
Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour.

Christ's own words

John 7:24
Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

Clear enough?

Re: 12 reasons Harry Potter should be banned

Accepting Jesus FREES us pal. What are your beliefs? Who are you to judge us?

Obviously I'm a horrible sunday school teacher since I read the Harry Potter series and I'm probably brainwashing these poor kids. Hurry up and save them before I do any more damage to them!

No. But if you'd like to come here and tell them, I wouldn't mind. Obviously I'm a horrible sunday school teacher since I read the Harry Potter series and I'm probably brainwashing these poor kids. Hurry up and save them before I do any more damage to them!

Re: 12 reasons Harry Potter should be banned

[QUOTE=sportzgrl33;435733]I don't have a disregard for God. [...]Also, I am your neighbor since I am a Christian. [...]I also do know what being a Christian means. I am baptized, worship God every Sunday, love him, and have faith in him. I know it means believing that Jesus died and rose again for my sins, is one with the Father and Holy Spirit, and that he loves me even though I sin. "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast." Ephesians 2:8-9 [quote]That is the fluffy-bunny side, a lot of false Christians think that that is all God does. Read this from 150 years ago,

"They are poor prophets that twaddle to me about the benevolence &c of the Creator: as if the unutterable unfathomable Creation had nothing else to do but constitute itself into a Soup-kitchen, and God Most High were mere President of a universal Charity Ball! In no time of history, I think, has such wretched stuff been spoken and snivelled about God, Thomas Carlyle to John Stuart Mill (Templand, Thornhill, Dumfriesshire, / 11 April, 1842)"

The kids do know about going to Hell. Therefore, I'm not lying to them.

And stoning gays? And burning witches? And the slaughter of the Midianites? And the Godly Human Sacrifice of Jephthah's daughter? And that they should be prepared to be eaten by their parents? If so, you are doing good work.
