I know there are pastors that are promoting these Narnia films as Christian. I think they are seeing things but are they also being set up for the Narnia film that will come out in 2014 called “The Last Battle” that has a universalism message. Since the emerging church and many church leaders have already embraced the heresy of universalism that seems very likely. The world in 2014 after the war against Islamic fundamentalism will want to believe in universalism. Will this film help along those lines and will the same pastors continue to promote this as Christian. I would think that it is more than likely.

FANS OF NARNIA BEWARE, THE WORST IS YET TO COME – CWN

Here I will make a not-so-bold prediction about the forthcoming Chronicle of Narnia story, The Last Battle, currently scheduled for release in May 2014. Unlike those who are concerned the current films are not true enough to the original stories, my concern is that Hollywood will be delighted to make this true to the original. My basis for saying this is Lewis’ documented theology of universalism. Unfortunately, it boldly raises its ugly heretical head in the closing scenes of The Last Battle, in a chapter titled “Further Up and Further In.”

Here a character named Emeth has happily come to faith in Aslan. Heretofore he had worshipped Narnia’s equivalent of Satan, a false god called Tash. This might be wonderful news apart from the hair-raising account of the conversation he reports he had with Aslan.[i] Upon encountering Aslan for the first time Emeth “fell at his feet and thought, ‘Surely this is the hour of death; for the Lion… will know that I have served Tash all my days and not him.’” When Aslan inexplicably says to Emeth “Son, thou art welcome,” he replies “Alas Lord I am no son of Thine but the servant of Tash.” To which Aslan answers, “Child all the service thou hast done to Tash, I account as service done to me.” Huh??

Are we to ever imagine that Jesus at the Judgment of the world would ever say to a Satanist, whatever service you have done unto Satan, (like child sacrifice, rape, murder, pedophilia, etc) I account as service done to me? Any such thinking is entirely blasphemous and the worst form of heresy. Yet, for all the good thinking which can be accredited to C.S. Lewis it is this thinking which Hollywood will most rejoice in promoting.
