Final Draft on Appreciation
I appreciate this book because it links with the Bible. It has many important connections to the Bible stories. Aslan symbolizes Jesus in The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe, all though one a human and one is a beast. I really like that everyone looks up to Aslan the same way a lot of people on Earth look up to God. Both Aslan and Jesus have their followers who have faith that they, as a leader, will someday come back and save them from their sins. As a Christian, I truly believe that is true, and there are many mini stories in The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe that link to the bible.
On Earth, and in Narnia, there are believers. These believers are taught to have faith and hope in their God that is the same in the Bible Many believers in the Bible were taught to keep their hope and faith high. I really like this concert because thought the beginning and the middle of the book, the people of Narnia were all talking about how Alsan will soon come and save all those who believe in him, and destroy the White Witch. The same in the Bible many people in the Bible believed that Jesus, the son of God would come down from heaven and heal the sick and help those in need. This is a wonderful example that Jesus and Aslan have “believers” who have faith and hope in them. This is another thing that I really appreciate as a Christian, I am taught to keep my faith and hope in God b/c he will answer my prayers and it really does happen. When u keep your hope and faith and trust in God, miracles do happen. And that is what is taught to the creatures of Narnia and the Christians who believe in God.
I have already explained that Alsan and Jesus is practically the same person. I’m going to go a lot deeper in The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe Aslan had been killed on the stone table by the White Witch. And in the Bible Jesus was killed on the cross. They both resurrected from the dead but they resurrected at different days. But they both had the same story of why they resurrected they both resurrected because they had taking place for a sinners death and because of that they came back to life. And I really like that they died for someone in their place. Alsan died because he was taking the place of Edmond, Edmond had sided with the White Witch and when Edmond escaped he came to Aslan’s land to reclaim. His blood so Alsan went in his place and resurrected the next day after being killed on the Stone table. Jesus’s story is a lot longer but imam make it short Jesus died for our sins so when we sin we should not be damned to hell and be judged by those around us. Even though we are still judged we are not judged the way back in the day.
All Christians know that the first man was Adam and the first woman is Eve. Now all men and women originated from Adam and Eve so in Narnia when they mean by sons of Adam and daughters of eve that is what they are talking about. That they all man have come from Adam and Eve, and as a Christian I believe that this is true we are all from one couple.
