This is foolish. Are you saying that the US Government should have somehow known that people were going to hijack a plane and crash it into the towers that day? How could they possibly know?
and yet the knew their was a threat, and it was disregarded, in much the same way as harry potter is in this thread, with the typical "not my problem let someone else henadle it " attitude
And even if they did think it might happen, what would they do, shut down the Towers for 10 years until the conflict is resolved? Shut down the Pentagon until the threat is over? Won't ever happen.
Just as I assume it will take divine intervention, to cause you to lay down a book on fantasy, that does nothing for your soul, and steals away your time from reading the Word of God, which is far, far more valuable, and edifying to your spirit.
Harry Potter is nothing compared to the satanically inspired horror movies that come out every year and have been coming out for decades.
The bible tells us that all sin is detestable by God, and shall never enter the Kingdom of heaven, it ultimately does not matter what the lost are doing, You are supposed to be a Child of God ,and we are told we will be held to greater accountably , than the lost. To point at the sins of others, and attempt to portray them as outweighing your own is flawed. God Tells us that no on who is still in sin shall inherit the kingdom of God, in 1 Cor 6
[9] Know ye not that
the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God?
Be not deceived:
neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
[10] Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
[11]
And such were some of you:
but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
[12] All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.
[13] Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.
[14] And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.
[15] Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.
[16] What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.
[17] But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.
[18] Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that commiteth fornication sinneth against his own body.
[19] What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
[20] For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
I would also love everybody in this thread to actually READ THE BOOKS. You already know the evils, as you claim, so it obviously wont matter if you read them. You will understand the lessons it has to teach, the good in it, it is truly an amazing book, it is easily a defining span of time in my childhood.
Have you ever actually read any of the bible for yourself?
I hope you get the kind of zeal for God, and his kingdom, as you do for a make believe story.
You are really missing out, you have and artificial substitute for something
Real.The Gospel is real, Christ is returning, all Harry potter does, is cause you to clamor for more, and to crave, and expect more magic, and occult practices.
Thats why I called it fruitless, because harry potter cannot save anyones soul. and it steals away from the Gospel, rather than drawing people to it.
