Would Jonathan Edwards Read Harry Potter?

[No Longer A Libertine]

Tolkien, Tolkien, he's our man -
If he can't write it, no one can!

CS Lewis come on down, strike this proud man's words straight down.

 

[No Longer A Libertine]

these books are modern masterpieces. its a pity Christians are missing out on them.

I guess shallow fairy tails of snow white, cinderella are more worthy.

Masterpieces? Best sellers I'll accept but masterpieces? I give caution to the wind.

Apparently there are two hidden Bible quotations in this final Potter book, according to the Wall Street Journal reviewer. Apparently Harry is actually a very good little Christian boy all along, according to this guy. I haven't read it. Godless, demonic stuff, the whole lot of it - Tolkein and Lewis too. :~

They aren't hidden. They are both inscribed on gravestones which Harry and HErmione read:

'The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death'

and

'Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also'

I wonder how may readers would ever imagine that they are scriptural.

I highly doubt that most readers of Harry Potter would know they are verses from the Bible.
