Part 2: Hollywood Exposed - C.S. Lewis & J.R.R. Tolkien




Two names synonymous with Christianity. The supposed hidden messages of God and Jesus written into their stories, brought to life on the big screen in Hollywood. I remember reading the Narnia books when I was little, when the movie first came out I was front and center to see one of my beloved books in the magic of the movie theatre. But upon further research into the life of C.S. Lewis, I began to see something disturbing unfold before my eyes. This was a supposed Christian, trying to parallel the world of the Bible with a magical world full of talking animals. If you have read my previous blogs I'm sure you already know that I am going to state the obvious. God and magic don't mix. EVER.

"There shall not be found among you anyone who... practices witchcraft, or a soothsayer, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, or one who conjures spells, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead. For all who do these things are an abomination to the LORD." -Deuteronomy 18:10-12


Now we can make the claim that he didn't know what he was doing or that it was all done in innocence, but is that true? Let's take a look at what he really was into.
In his own autobiography, Surprised By Joy, he admits that he left his Anglican faith in order to follow a mistress from school that was into theosophy, Rosocrucianism, and spiritualism, all having to do with the occult. Here is a quote from his book:

“And that started in me something with which, on and off, I have had plenty of trouble since--the desire for the preternatural, simply as such, the passion for the Occult. Not everyone has this disease; those who have will know what I mean. I once tried to describe it in a novel. It is a spiritual lust; and like the lust of the body it has the fatal power of making everything else in the world seem uninteresting while it lasts.”

He eventually joined the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, a deeply occult group with Aleister Crowley as one of the initiates. This group had a good amount of Christian followers who started the Christian mysticism sect. This sect formed a basis of uniting Christianity with magical practices and spiritual evolution. The Order Of the Golden Dawn also incorporated the teachings of the Kabbalah. Basically they took age old teachings that span back hundreds of centuries to the teachings of Baal worship, Egyptian magic, Rosicrucian and Knights Templar and formed this group. All these cults seem to come back full circle to where you can always see where they found their teachings. This Order is nothing new. And C.S. Lewis is one of those who made Christian Mysticism popular. He thought no one would ever find him out as we can see from this quote:

 "I trust no one will call me a mystic—a name, in its strict theological sense, too high, and in its popular sense (I hope) too vague, to describe me; but it appears to me that all sorts of objects, animate and inanimate, natural and artificial … seem (I hardly know how to say it) to have been prepared from all eternity for their precise place in the symphony of things."


He also made grave mistakes to have mentioned his friends, some of whom he said were his strongest influences. These being Dom Bede Griffiths and George Sayer among others. These men were influential in bringing Christianity and mysticism together. They expressed their feelings of Lewis calling him a mystic on several occasions. One critic named Leanne Payne was quoted as saying that Lewis was , " an outstanding Christian mystic."

Lewis had dedicated his autobiography to Griffiths, a man who was influential in bringing the mysticism of Hinduism and Christianity together, even being a Swami and a monk when he died in 1993, and had written books about mysticism. Lewis said he was heavily influenced by a man named George MacDonald who was a Universalist, being someone who believes that all of mankind will eventually be saved, very much a new world religion form of thinking. MacDonald wrote a book titled Lilith. This book entails a story about the Biblical Adam being married to a demon named Lilith before he married Eve. By the end of the story, Lilith is redeemed and Adam says that even the devil will be eventually be redeemed. This is a man that Lewis admired? This Universalist way of thinking shows up in one of Lewis' books called The Great Divorce. In it Lewis describes himself being in heaven and speaking to MacDonald asking him about Universalism. In the last of the Narnia books, a pagan is saved by his own works and motives and goes to heaven even though he doesn't believe in Aslan and was a follower of the enemy. Lilith even shows up in The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe where Mr. Beaver is telling about the white witch who is descended from Lilith the first wife of Adam. He even goes on to say that she is a Jinn, which is a demon that looks like a genie. Do you not see how confusing this can be to a child who is hearing or reading about this? Is this what Lewis was trying to teach children? Even if it is something to only look at as entertainment, why fill our heads with such heresy? If you truly want even more damning evidence that Lewis was indeed a forefront leader in Christian Mysticism, look no further that a book by author David C. Downing. This is the book he wrote:



What else is there to say? This was a man who was deep into the occult, a group that engaged heavily on the practice of sex magick and all things mystical, the false demonic teachings that included a man such as Aleister Crowley. He duped plenty of Christians into thinking it was ok to read and engage in thoughts that it is ok to mix magical elements and the world of Christianity, something that is strictly forbidden in the Bible. Let's not forget the ever so popular character Mr. Tumnus, the half human half goat faun. According to Lewis, this was a made up character in his head, but alas, he is far from it. This is a picture of Mr. Tumnus:



And this is a picture of the god of the wild and fertility named Pan, flute and all:




And of course we can see the eerie similarity with the satanic Baphomet.



The whole scene between Mr. Tumnus and Lucy in Narnia has such a distinct feel of pedophilia present in the air that it makes one feel uncomfortable, if you don't agree, try watching it now. A little girl is lured into a grown man's home, put to sleep and when she awakens, he tells her he did a bad thing. This coming from a creature that is modeled after a god of sex and perversion. Now do you see? Pan can also easily be connected to Peter Pan, luring children with his Pan flute, and in case you didn't know J.M. Barrie was in fact a 33rd degree freemason. Heck you can even connect the Legend of Zelda character Link to the same creature, wearing this same green (think leaves) uniform and using the same Pan flute. Now keep in mind that Lewis said the whole series of Narnia came from one image he had in his head of a faun with an umbrella in snowy woods. This character stems from the same gods and drawings and stories, they are all one and the same, Satan.

Now on to J.R.R. Tolkien. Another member of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, and leader of the introduction of Christian mysticism to the world. This man was mostly known as a Catholic instead of full blown Christian as was Lewis thought to be. But apparently Christians accept this man as being a true follower of Christ even though he was Catholic, not something I will be debating at this moment as far as if Catholics are indeed Christians which I can assure you, are not. Anyway, the occult themes in his books are far from Biblical and Christian as many are deceived into believing. It would seem that too many are willing to blindly follow occult teachings as long as the one who wrote it is "Christian". The constant theme of turning Biblical stories into a magical experience and using creatures that resemble that of demons to portray these stories is, in a word, ludicrous. Anything other than a human such as elves or trolls or hobbits or what have you are nothing more than demonic entities. And to use them as forces of good while also wielding magical powers is beyond what a rational Christian should be engaging in. Every time a Christian accepts these stories into their homes, they are in essence accepting satan and his teachings, whether you choose to believe that or not is a moot point. This is exactly how he gets to be accepted, especially by gullible Christians who believe they can not be duped by sheer entertainment. Tolkien knew what he was doing, he knew he was influential in teaching the occult to millions. There are stories on the internet given by witches themselves that contest that the Lord of the Ring books are indeed a primer for witchcraft.

I can give a personal testimony of what happened to me and my husband. Many years ago before I knew anything about Tolkien or even the dangers of Hollywood, before the Lord of the Ring movie even came out, my husband wanted to read the books in order to prep himself for the movie. So I bought him the first book. The very same night he started reading it, he awoke from the bed screaming and eve jumped out of bed and started pointing towards the ceiling and saying "do you see it? What is that??" I had to calm him down and when he came to, he said he saw what looked like a dragon flying over our bed. He wasn't dreaming, he was wide awake. Well that same night I took that book out of our room and told him he shouldn't keep reading it. When it was time for the movie to come out, we went to see it. I didn't think twice about watching it, had no qualms about the theme. As we sat there and I was actually enjoying it, the scene where the ring makes it's appearance and the old hobbit that wants it so badly that his face changes into a distorted evil looking thing, shocked my senses so badly that I had a horrible ache inside my chest, I was so uncomfortable I stood up and left the theatre, I was trembling and even started crying. No matter how hard I tried I couldn't go back into the theatre, it was as if the Holy Spirit put up a wall between me and the door, I texted my husband and told him what happened, he came out and we both left. Imagine the lack of surprise when after years of this happening, I come across my research and see what this man was into. Satan doesn't come dressed in the ugliest of personas, and even those Christians who say well I don't watch horror movies or any of those clearly demonic movies, but then we fully accept things like Lord of the Rings or Narnia, with such occult themes with characters who fully engage with magical powers and those things which God forbids us to even entertain ourselves with. God forgive me for ever having been a part of these things. When we fully allow the Holy Spirit to guide our every move, we see things differently, we feel the Spirit move us away from these things, but this happens when we deny the flesh and put away the silly pride that makes us think that because we are saved, that is enough, and we have to put no part in what we participate in. It is a lie straight from the devil.

This picture is from the book, depicting the Door of Durin or Moria:



And here we can see the Freemasonic arch :




No similarity there huh? How about the fact that the game Dungeons and Dragons, a very clear demonic game, was in fact inspired by Lord of the Rings? You can do your own research where there are Christians that claim that because of LOTR they were lured into the occult and began to become interested in witchcraft.
Let's look at some of Tolkien's quotes:
"In making a myth, in practicing 'mythopoeia,' and peopling the world with elves and dragons and goblins, a story-teller .. is actually fulfilling God's purpose, and reflecting a splintered fragment of the true light."

Fulfilling God's purpose? Where in scripture can he even begin to explain himself with such an erroneous quote?

"...the thing seems to write itself once I get going...." The Letters of J. R. R Tolkien", page 91.

Yeah there's a word for this and it's called channeling. This is not God inspired so please don't fool yourself into thinking that it was Holy Spirit channeling.

This is a map from the book:



A five pointed island. How is this not obvious?

Here is a music album that is inspired by the LOTR:



Nobody questions why such demonic games and music are "inspired" by LOTR??? It is because they are getting their inspiration from the blatant witchcraft that is taught in these books and movies.

These two were great friends, supposedly it was Tolkien who brought Lewis into the knowledge of Christ, but after seeing what these two were really into, we can easily see that they are not followers of the true Christ, perhaps an antichrist, but definitely not our Lord and Savior. By their fruits you will know them, they can spew a million different quotes about God and Christianity but at the end of the day, what sprouted from their lives, is anything but Christian. I wouldn't be caught dead reposting a C.S. Lewis meme about Christ or an inspirational quote from Tolkien, these men are of their father the devil. They do not represent Christ and if you can't see that, I suggest you take it to scripture and prove it wrong. I don't write these blogs for self satisfaction in proving a holier than thou attitude, it is because I feel I am a watchman on the wall and God wants me to warn His children to get out of the filthiness that is satan inspired, to remove the things that are becoming a stumbling block to our faith and our lives, He would never condone using magical powers to convey His message, come out of her my people He is screaming, I hear that over and over, this world has taken over every aspect of our lives into thinking these Hollywood movies and books are normal entertainment. It's time for God's people to stand up and rip off the blinders that satan has placed over our eyes. May it be for HIS glory and not mine, in the meantime, AS FOR ME AND MY HOUSE, WE WILL SERVE THE LORD!
