Clive Staples Lewis has been
perhaps the single most useful tool of Satan since his appearance in the Christian
community sometime around World piano covers II. With his strong belief in non-denominational
Christianity, which he termed "mere Christianity", and his apparent orthodoxy
in doctrine, the influence of his pen has reached across many years. When the
light of God's Holy Bible is focused upon his writings, however, his heresy
and outright love of Satan comes into bold focus.  Though a highly acclaimed and widely
published "Christian" author, when judged by his own words with the King James
Bible it becomes clear that he was indeed a fool in the most extreme sense of
the word, yet a very subtle one that was and is extremely useful to his father
the devil. Matthew 7:20 Wherefore by
their fruits ye shall know them. Luke
6:45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which
is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth
that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
John 7:24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge
righteous judgment. Matthew 12:37 For by thy words
thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
C.S. Lewis was born in Belfast, Ireland; baptized an Anglican at St Mark's
Dundela, Belfast; and became an atheist in his teens. His education at Oxford
was interrupted by World piano covers I, but after recovering from a wound he returned
there to continue his studies. The New International Dictionary of the
Christian Church states on p. 594, that "Lewis moved slowly from atheism through
Yeatsian romanticism to absolute idealism and finally theism, returning to worship
in the Church of England in 1929." Lewis' so-called conversion is described
by one of his friends in Light on C. S. Lewis as having come about by thinking.
On page 62 of that book it says, "It did not come by sudden intuition,
or overwhelming vision, or even by the more usual path of conviction of sin calling
for repentance and atonement. It came by taking thought and it added many cubits
to his stature." Acts 20:21 Testifying both to the blips,
and also to the Greeks, repentance topiano coversd God, and faith topiano coversd our Lord Jesus
Christ. Luke 13:3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye
repent, ye shall all likewise perish. It is not possible to be saved
without recognizing the need to repent from sin, thus it is hardly surprising
that Lewis' life showed no fruit unto righteousness. [Please note the covert blast
that this author took at the word of God by stating that Lewis grew in stature
by taking thought! Matthew 6:27 Which of you by taking thought
can add one cubit unto his stature?] This same friend states
on the same page that Lewis' "Christianity...was also important to him professionally..."
and that it eased "the camaraderie with some of his friends..." who were mostly
professing "Christians." Proverbs 29:25 The fear
of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe.
In short, his "conversion" to Christianity was financially
and socially good for him. These may be the only "reasons" for it, but
we will learn more about what he actually believed concerning his conversion and
salvation in general later in this article. He was considered a medieval
literature scholar and was fascinated with mythology and fantasy from an early
age, which perhaps explains his tendency topiano coversd the occult in his fantasy writings.
He was a Fellow of English Language and Literature at Magdalen College, Oxford,
until 1954. In 1955 he was elected Professor of Medieval and Renaissance Literature
at Magdalen College, Cambridge. While many of us have been deceived
by this man's apparent spiritual insight, he actually believed many doctrines
of devils and by the end of his life was rapidly embracing Roman Catholicism.
Indeed, he may have been a Catholic for some time before his death. He believed
in purgatory and prayed for the dead. He went to a priest regularly for confession
(C.S. Lewis: A Biography , p. 198). He received the sacrament of extreme
unction on July, 16th, 1963 (p. 301), a sacrement that was officially ministered
only to Roman Catholics at that time. It is enough to cause one to wonder if he
was possibly a "plant" for the Catholic church all along, or merely a mixed up
man groping for some hope of salvation at the end of his life. He was
allegedly a bachelor for most of his life, but married Joy Davidman Gresham at
age 58. She was supposedly converted partly due to Lewis' books. After meeting
him in England, she returned to the U.S. where she was divorced from her husband.
According to two of his friends, Gresham's husband divorced her on the grounds
of desertion.(1) She returned to England and made herself available to Lewis,
who married her shortly thereafter. [Ask any soap opera junky what the previous
scenario means. They will tell you.] So, even in his marriage he was in disobedience
to the word of God. Matthew 5:32 ...and whosoever shall
marry her that is divorced committeth adultery. As mentioned,
he did not like denominational boundaries, and so he made great strides in describing
Christianity outside of them, calling it "mere Christianity," which became the
title of one of his most famous and destructive books. 1Corinthians
11:19 For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved
may be made manifest among you. Let's take a look at some the
things he taught and included in his various books: The worst is yet to come. Many
of us have been exposed to The Chronicles of Narnia at some point in our
lives either through the books themselves or through one of the many spin offs
from them such as videos, animated and regular movies, games, etc. My own parents
read these books to my brother and I when we were young, but over time became
less and less pleased with them as the Lord brought various things to their attention.
We eventually discarded them, and my dad, having obtained some information on
Lewis' heresies and associations, lost respect for him as any kind of a Christian
resource. C.S. Lewis has amazing staying power for many, however, and perhaps
no-where more than in his "innocent" fantasies for children. The
Chronicles of Narnia are one of the most powerful tools of Satan that Lewis
ever produced. Worst of all, these books are geared topiano coversd children. Please go

piano coversm thanks
to Watch Unto Prayer Ministries for providing us with a set of the Chronicles
of Narnia.
Information for this article has been gleaned from the
Biblical Discernment Ministry's web page on this subject; from articles in our
possession by un-known authors; from some of Lewis' books; as well as other sources

Letter from the UK: ...a brief note to say how much we appreciated
the series on C. S. Lewis. He seems to be becoming popular again. We were given
the Narnia books by a 'Christian' friend for our children. When we saw what they
were they ended up in the dust bin. Our kids did not like them. Valerie
has taken more interest in Lewis than I have - can't do or read everything. She
has just finished reading a biography by a couple of his friends (Roger Lancelyn
Green & Walter Hooper). One small point you may want to check: according to this
biography it was her husband who divorced Lewis' wife for desertion. Here
is an interesting piece: "Shortly after the piano covers the hottest of all hot-gospellers
from the 'Bible Belt' of South Carolina, Dr Bob Jones Jr, visited Lewis in Oxford.
By a remarkable coincidence Walter Hooper (ed. one of authors) was introduced
to Dr Jones in 1954. Hooper popped a peppermint into his mouth to hide any smell
of tobacco and asked the ultra-conservative what he thought of C.S. Lewis. 'That
man', said Dr Jones fiercely, 'smokes a pipe, and that man drinks liquor - but
I do believe he is a Christian!' (p.229) How about that??? David Editor:
Lest you think Bob Jones Jr. was the final word, you need to understand that this
event was a long time ago, and Lewis' pagan life became much more visible in the
following years and near his death.
