Re: Hogwarts School of Prayer and Miracles

Hello I am new to this forum and have found it vastly interesting. I am however a Harry Potter fan and I find the rewriting of the books to be disrespectful.

Hi, Chantal. Perhaps I can help you see this from a different perspective, the correct perspective. You see, Christ temporarily SUFFERED and DIED on the Cross for some of us. He did this not because He had to, after all, being God from since before time (John 1:1), He could have easily snapped His Divine Fingers and forgiven us, or even created the laws of physics to include Salvation to all, but that's neither here nor there, because He DID temporarily suffer and die for us. And in doing so, He put Himself through physical and emotional distress. I've been through labor a number of times, and while it's true each labor was many times longer than Christ's suffering on the Cross, His suffering was much worse because it took into account everyone's sins. How do you put a price on Sin? You can't. That's how. And how does mankind repay Him? With gratitude? With repentance? Hard. Ly. Mankind repays Him by inviting Satan into their homes through such diabolical tools as this witch story. Harry Potter makes witchcraft and magic look "cool" and "hip." All the kids want to do it. And what will it get them? An eternity in HELL. If you think that's not offensive - to drive your children to suffer for ever and ever and ever and never ever get a break from it - then you must have no morals and hate children as much as you hate Jesus.

That is your belief and you are entitled to it. It is not everyone's belief and I view freedom of literature is as important as freedom of speech. If my mother did not wish me to read a book it is her job as parent not to let me. My point was if someone, say a Muslim, was rewriting a popular Christian fiction book book to better fit there beliefs I think you would be upset and rightly so. Also I used Christian fiction as an example because Harry Potter is of the fiction type.

First of all, this is NOT a debate forum. We're right and you're wrong, according to Jesus and the Holy Word of God. Please read THIS thread before making an even bigger fool of yourself.

Secondly, while the internets might seem to be "free" to you, this particular corner of the internets is a privately owned Christian forum. The rights you have on this forum are listed HERE. Please contact a Pastor immediately if you feel that any of your rights have been violated.

Finally, your unsaved opinions or tantrums are not even slightly of interest to us. We follow the Holy Word of God TO THE LETTER, and make no apologies for that. One of the most important commandments in the Bible tells us to avoid unsaved scum such as yourself. You wandered in here uninvited, and unwelcome .


Can you find a Scripture that says "free speech" is something that God condones? Because I don't see it in my Bible.

Re: Hogwarts School of Prayer and Miracles

Does anyone know if this is available for purchase in hardback? I have a 20 year old Granddaughter that wanted to read the original books, but of course I put my foot down.

It is short enough to not keep her from her chores, and a man will not have to explain a lot of the words.

To be honest, I think that your granddaughter would be much more happy if you got her the original books! They are filled with love, friendship and adventure, and can teach us adults a thing or two! My children loved them!


Sincerely,
Sally

Hello! Cas here. Of course all kids want to go to Hogwarts! A childs imagination can take them to many places. My daughter Sarah wanted to go to Hogwarts when me and Sally read her the books, so when she turned eleven we had a sorting ceremony and did Harry Potter themed stuff. All of this is brilliant! You are encouraging a child to open their mind to many different things! At the end of the day, they know it's not real, no matter how many pygmtouffs you buy them! There is nothing wrong with encouraging a child's imagination!

Sally, those books are the antithesis of the Bible! The book promotes that women are equal to men and will tell them what to do (Ephesians 5:22 Violation), witchcraft is good (Exodus 22:18) and that breaking rules is ok (Romans 13:5 Violation) and that's only the beginning. The Bible is the way to heaven and demands complete obedience. I can't because of my desire to obey the Lord read those books, rather I am to condemn them for they are wrong according to the Lord. I strongly suggest burning them as the trash they are (just like the writer will also burn, but in the eternal bowels of Hell).
