Harry Potter Books teach Witchcraft to Children
The Harry Potter books are pure unadulterated witchcraft.
While they may be exiting and attractively packaged, the Harry Potter adventure series are, nonetheless, introducing millions of children to the practices and rituals of Wicca.
Equally insidious is the subtle indoctrination, through the Harry Potter series, of paganistic Wicca belief, philosophy, and values.
The books, marketed to impressionable children, pose a long-term threat to Judeo-Christian faith and culture.
The Harry Potter books are virtual manuals for occult practices and beliefs.
Under the guise of innocent fun, children are imitating the words, mannerisms and dress of witches.
In the first book of the series, Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone, the orphaned Harry Potter is taken to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry where he learns how to use witchcraft equipment, work with demon spirits, and use words such as Azkaban, Circe, Draco, Erised, Hermes, and Slytherin.
These are Wicca names for devils and demons.
The arch villain Voldemort, is described as He who must not be named, the same description Wicca uses for their seventh of seven satanic princes, who represents Christianity.
Harry sports a purple thunderbolt on his forehead, the Wicca symbol for Satan also used by the New Age practicing Nazi SS.
Many Harry Potter devotees, mainly children, are sporting thunderbolt stickers as a way of identifying with Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard who assumes amazing powers.
Harry Potter travels between the magical world and the world of muggles, which is the mundane world of those of us who reject witchcraft.
Harrys cruel aunt and uncle, portrayed villainously, reject witchcraft.
This view typifies the New Age and Wicca outlook, not to mention the aristocratic minded political left, which is that they possess an almost magical knowledge which makes them superior to those who are less enlightened and which entitles them to use the levers of power to enforce their ideas for the good of the less fortunate.
Judeo-Christian values teach that the individual can overcome evil, both in his own life and in the world, by developing character through hard work, integrity, and courage.
The New Age idea, promoted in Harry Potter, believes that some sort of external and amoral magic is required.
Judeo-Christian faith teaches that G-D created man in his image, not that man would strive to embody godlike powers himself.
Such strivings by man to embrace supernatural powers is no mere childsplay, but underlies every utopian movement in history that has sought to transform, to use another Wicca term found in Harry Potter, man into a new being.
This is the philosophy that animated both Nazism and Communism and that animates the satanic Islamic extremism of today.
American public schools are apparently planning to use Harry Potter, which means that public schools will be explicitly endorsing and furthering Wicca, in violation of federal law which bans religion from public schools.
The Bible was banned from public schools in the 1960s.
Berit Kjos, author of Brave New Schools, comments that Harry Potter fits the agenda of the education change-agents as they implement the UNESCO lifelong learning program through Goals 2000.
Lifelong learning states that:
Everyone - in homes, schools, and workplace must be mentally prepared to participate in the consensus process.
In the name of unity and community, people of all ages must help form new values, challenge contrary beliefs, report non-compliant friends and relatives, and oppose all other obstacles to compromise, common ground and mental health.
Harry Potter contributes to this unity by advocating the new values of the occult.
The muggles, those who maintain contrary beliefs, are viewed as obstacles to compromise, common ground and mental health.
The young student is taught to report non-compliant friends and relatives much as the occult New Age Nazis did to implement their new values.
Likewise, the Soviets knew how to handle those who were obstacles to compromise, common ground and mental health.
Beret Kjos offers many practical strategies to counter the Harry Potter influence:
KNOW THE TRUE GOD. When children know God, they will recognize the seductive counterfeits.
SHUN OTHER GODS. Its tempting to believe the beckoning voices that display enticing counterfeits of all Gods wonderful promises.
The power is within you, they say. Dont listen to the lies.
REMEMBER HISTORY'S LESSONS. The witchcraft and wizardry in Harry Potter books may be fantasy, but they familiarize children with a very real and increasingly popular religion one that few really understand.
Far removed from the terrors of tribal witchcraft and shamanism, Americans are oblivious to the bondages that normally follow occult favors.
But historical and archeological records have traced the earth-centered myths, practices, and consequences through the millennia.
The human cruelties involved in pagan worship included torture, mutilation and human sacrifice.
Many of these practices continued in parts of the world until the 20th century, when the spread of Christianity with its emphasis on love and the value of life, made most of these cruelties intolerable.
But now the world turns, once again, from Gods truth to the worlds gods and rituals.
SHARE GOD'S LOVE WITH EVERYONE. God's way to multicultural understanding and global unity is essential today.
He cares for people in every culture, longs to set them free, and wants to love them through us.
Harry Potter may conquer evil forces with witchcraft, but in the real spiritual world, no pagan power can counter the frightening consequences of dealing with demons. Only God can.
DON'T APOLOGIZE FOR YOUR FAITH.
REMEMBER THAT GOD IS FAR GREATER!
PRAY. Only God can slow the massive international movement toward conformity to pagan beliefs and values.
In a nation that has traded truth and reality for politically correct tolerance and unity, Christians are called to remain faithful, prayerful and hopeful in Christ, who offers genuine love and unity.
WEAR GODS ARMOR--a set of strategic truths that exposes and counters every deception.
Dont forget that our real enemy is the spiritual hierarchy of occult forces, not globalist educators or well-meaning teachers.
Only God's power and protection will enable our children to resist and triumph.

Too bad King couldn't keep up the quality or the Godliness that The Stand had. Outstanding book. But there's something not quite right about the author. I blame Maine.
Shalom.
That's not true of the Potter books.
Hey! You said cheese! What kind of cheese?
"1": And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
"2": In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
"3": And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:
"4": And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.
"5": And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.
"6": And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things which must shortly be done.
"7": Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.
"8": And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.
"9": Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.
"10": And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.
"11": He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
"12": And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
"13": I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
"14": Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
"15": For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
"16": I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.
"17": And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.
"18": For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
"19": And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
"20": He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
"21": The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
REPENT BEFORE IT"S TOO LATE! BELIEVE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST!
