The following is a letter written by my friend, Camille. 

------------------------------------------------

Hello Friends,

If you have not already read some of the exerts from the Catholic League's "The Golden Compass Agenda: Unmasked", I encourage you to do so.  Especially the storyline and "quotes pulled from the second book "The Subtle Knife" and the third book "The Amber Spyglass" as well as quotes toward the end of the pamphlet of what the author says about himself.

For in reading these, you will find things like God being an old man who cannot die..."And if that is his condition, wouldn't it be the most merciful thing, the truest proof of our love for God, to seek him out and give him the gift of death?[1].

Listen oh Church, our God is El Chay (The Living God). 

Or how "The Authority, God, the Creator, the Lord, Yahweh, El, Adonai, the King, the Father, the Almighty -- those were all names he gave himself.  He was never the creator.  He was an angel like ourselves the first angel, true, the most powerful, but he was formed of Dust as we are, and Dust is only a name for what happens when matter begins to understand itself."[2]. 

How twisted.  Or how about when he crosses the line, talking about sexually mutilating children as done through the church!!!  Yes, it does explicitly say that...this comes from one of the main characters in the series "Lord Asriel", discussing the General Oblation Board severing children's daemons (demons):  "There was a precedent, Something like it had happened before.  Do you know what the word castration means?  It means removing the sexual organs of a boy so that he never develops the characteristics of a man.  A castrato keeps his high treble voice all his life, which is why the Church allowed it: so useful in Church music."[3] (emphasis mine)

 Can you imagine a ten, twelve or even 14 year old reading this???  I had to throw this one in, speaking of Lord Asriel again:  "There was a time when he thought of making it an issue of force [rebellion and overtaking the Church], but he turned away from that...it's my belief that he turned away from a rebellion against the Church not because the Church was too strong, but because it was too weak to be worth fighting...I think he's waging a higher war than that.  I think he's aiming a rebellion against the highest power of all.  He's gone a-searching for the dwelling place of the Authority Himself, and he's a-going to destroy Him."[4] (emphasis mine)

 Is this sounding at all familiar to anyone else???  And for the last quote about sexual mutilation of children (yes, in a "children's" book): "Let me tell you what is happening and who it is that we must fight.  For there is a war coming.  I don't know who will join Whit us, but I know whom we must fight.  It is the Magisterium, the Church.  For all its history...it's tried to suppress and control every natural impulse.  And when it can't control them, it cuts them out...I have traveled in the south lands.  There are churches there, believe me, that cut their children too...not in the same way, but just as horribly.  They cut their sexual organs, yes, both boys and girls; they cut them with knives so that they shan't feel.  That is what the Church does, and every church is the same: control, destroy, obliterate every good feeling.  So if a war comes, and the Church is on one side of it, we must be on the other."[5]
Oh, there is a war coming Church, whose side will you be on???

We [the Church] relinquished with Harry Potter, although I don't have the faintest idea why, as magic (power that comes from satan) is expressly forbidden for God's people.  "Well, we only watched it. We don't believe in or practice magic or witchcraft or sorcery."   

Psalm 101:3 "I will set before my eyes no vile thing. The deeds of faithless men I hate; they will not cling to me." 

Yet, how has Harry Potter "clung" to your mind?   I could go on ALL day with scripture after scripture.  Yet, many Christians gave in and watched and read and devoured.  Look what God's Word says about this, Revelation 18:4 "I heard another voice from heaven, saying, "Come out of her, my people, so that you will not participate in her sins and receive of her plagues;5 for her sins have piled up as high as heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities" (emphasis mine)

We are reaping the consequences of our "playing the harlot" with the world.   Oh, I pray the Lord open your eyes if you are desensitized to any of the above.  They are talking in this series about a war coming.  A WAR coming!  Yes, beloved in Christ, it IS coming.  Will Christ find you as the radiant Bride at His coming?  Or playing around with the harlot of this world?

Now, if you have made it this far through all my words, I'm sure you are one seeking to be like the Bride.  God revealed something to me today.  We are not wrestling with flesh and blood (Phillip Pullman) as Paul says in Ephesians, but the demonic influence behind Pullman.  What if, now hang with me here, what if, yes, we boycott those who sell tickets to this or sell childen's toys for this, but what if we with EVEN MORE fervor, PRAY for Pullman's salvation????  What a testimony to the WORLD if he was saved.  What if the 1,000's of people who are forwarding this on, hearing it spoken of in the Church, taking a verbal stand against it, what if all those people united in prayer for salvation of one man????  I believe he would be saved.  Because the Lord does not want any to perish but all to come to repentance (2 Pet 3:9).  And if just one person prayed for his salvation, the chances are it would not happen, because this man is strong in his anti-christian beliefs. 

But if 1000's prayed???  We know that the more people are praying the more powerfully the prayer is answered.  Matt. 1819 "Again, I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven. 20 For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them."   How much more if 10, 100 or 1000 pray agreeing about what we are asking for?  Who will pray with me, every day for Pullman's salvation until Dec. 7th?   Will you commit with me?  For I believe not only that it will change the course of things with this movie, but with the author himself.

Remember beloved, the war is coming, even the unsaved know it.  Will we be ready?

In Christ's Love,

Camille
