“His beliefs were consistent with Christian beliefs!”

Are you sure about that?

Let me be clear, I would never say he wasn’t a saved man because I don’t know what was really in his heart at the end of his life.

I understand why Catholics would be comfortable with him, but Protestants and Evangelicals should know he rejected many of your foundational beliefs. I won’t delve into all the minutiae here, but, among many other problems, Lewis rejected biblical inerrancy, penal substitutionary atonement, and salvation by faith alone.

Much has been written and said about his aberrant beliefs, so I won’t recreate the work of others. I decided to stay away from his work years ago and don’t know the best resources on Lewis. I did a quick search and the articles linked below popped-up. There may be much better ones out there. I also found a few sermons from sermonaudio.com.

I’m sure if we tried hard enough we could find fault with everyone - except Jesus. And He said to judge them by their fruits - and C. S. Lewis has had a bumper croup!

I don’t know about your other links, but that Jesus-is-savior site I’ve seen before and it is not a reliable source for anything.

In fact, it’s rather Satanic and creepy.

It’s filled with a lot of lfat out lies and disinformation with snippets of truth mixed in for effect.

Hey, wait a minute!

Protestant after Protestant comes here to say that what they are all about is each believer reads the Bible and interprets it on his own, without the need of other men to tell him what it means.

Sounds like you are trying to set up a "Protestant magisterium" of binding doctrines.....
