Lord of the Rings is Almost Here!

Is anybody else excited about this? I will be in England to watch it. A while back I heard Viggo Mortensen was in New Zealand filming, but I don't see his name on the list of actors.

Are you joking or are you confusing this with The Hobbit?

 

[jasoncran]

the hobbit is what he is thinking of.

I saw in the news earlier today that Mt. Doom actually erupted in New Zealand today.

The Bible doesn't really say anything about it, so that's debatable. I personally don't see the harm in it. Actually, if I remember correctly, the guy who wrote the LOTR books was a Christian.

j.r.r. tolkein was catholic.

Good grief! This is the thinking that is produced by Orthodox Christendom, a religion based on fear! The 'Way of Christ' is not the way of that false religion. The "religion" of "Christianity" (all known denominations and sects) is the Mystery: Babylon The Great, Mother Of Harlots And Abominations Of The Earth - it is NOT the Body of Christ! It is an enormous false religion based on fear and BLACKMAIL (i.e. - get saved or BURN IN HELL). It is a massive kingdom of darkness, error, and superstition which MASQUERADES AS CHRIST'S KINGDOM. But it most certainly IS NOT Christ's Kingdom!



Revelation 18:4 "And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, COME OUT OF HER [Babylon], MY PEOPLE, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
Revelation 18:5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.
Revelation 18:24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth."




Go out and enjoy The Hobbit! You will learn a lot more about God's love from Tolkien than you will from a Sunday morning service in Babylon! Those who are in the pulpits on Sunday are:

2 Corinthians 11:13 "These people are false apostles. They are deceitful workers who disguise themselves as apostles of Christ.
2 Corinthians 11:14 But I am not surprised! Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.
2 Corinthians 11:15 So it is no wonder that his ministers also disguise themselves as ministers of righteousness."

Matthew 7:15 "Beware of false prophets, who come to you dressed in sheep's clothing [as shepherds], but inside they are devouring wolves."




And speaking of "DRAGONS" [like 'Smaug' in The Hobbit]:

Revelation 13:11 ""And I saw another BEAST ascending up from the earth, and it had two horns, LIKE A LAMB; and it spake as A DRAGON"

The BEAST is characterized having two horns LIKE A LAMB ['looks like' the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ - i.e. - looks Christian], BUT it speaks like THE DRAGON [but it 'speaks' and sounds just like that old serpent, the DRAGON, called the devil, and Satan. This beast professes to be the true representative of the Lamb of God in the world. It pretends to be harmless, meek, mild, inoffensive, nonagressive, pure, holy - like a lamb - but notwithstanding this, "it spake as a dragon!"

Who else but a FIRE AND BRIMSTONE breathing DRAGON would breath "hot air" out of his mouth, pronouncing a "sentence" of everlasting sadistic torture with FIRE AND BRIMSTONE in a "place" known as "hell." This twisted, evil doctrine could only come from the the arch deceiver - Satan, the devil - the "great dragon!"




As God commands us; we are to "come out of" that massive false religious system known as Babylon - the Great Harlot:

Revelation 18:4 "And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, COME OUT OF HER, MY PEOPLE, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
