Maybe Not So Orthodox After All

[arisbe]

Clive Staples Lewis has been perhaps the single most useful tool of Satan since his appearance in the Christian community sometime around World War 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.

Theosis is a term of great weight in the Eastern churches, and is the name of the adult Sunday School I attend.

I know nothing of Benny Hinn, but when I see the name I can't help thinking of Benny Hill, who is much missed.

Ah! Yes, theosis. I really do need to pay more attention to the Eastern Churches.

TBH I don't know much about Benny Hinn. He's one of those faith healers and is... I think... Pentecostal. But the one time I caught him on TV he was making statements to the effect that we could wield the power of God if we had proper faith.

"Your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods..." Heh.

Without paying for the material on that CD the site promoted, which I'm sure is horrid and shrill, I imagine that the prominent placement of the quote I mentioned insinuates that they consider it to be C. S. Lewis's prime heresy.
