Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Analysis

Lets take a look at the title “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows”. It seems like a bit of an oxymoron because Deathly symbolizes death, dark ect. Hallow symbolizes Holy, life. When I look at Harry Potter I automatically cancel out the name Harry and look to the name “Potter” and think about God: “O Lord, you are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand” Isaiah 64:8”. He is the Potter, we are the clay. He is the one who forms, shapes and creates us just like the screenwriter is the one who forms, shapes, and creates the characters in a screenplay. It would seem more plausible to me then to title the film “Harry Clay and the Deathly Hallows” since Harry is in fact a created character. For one to understand the relevance of the title “Harry Potter” one must first understand who or what the deathly hallows symbolize. (Remember this is coming from a Biblical standpoint and not from the standpoint of screenwriter Steve Kloves or Author J.K Rowling).

“The Deathly Hallows” are those angels spoke about in Jude 1:6 who didn’t keep their first HOLY estate, but rebelled against God. Now take away harry from the title and it reads, “Potter” and the Deathly Hallows. Potter as creator, as in artist, as in originator, as in Yahweh, as in Jesus Christ being the Potter going to war with fallen Angels, who are now soldiers in an army for the prince of darkness of this world. Why would satan be recruiting members to fight in his army if there wasn’t going to be a war? Why would the Potter be going to war with the Deathly Hallows?

“And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army” Revelation 19:19

Even if this doesn’t have anything to do with the concept of the Movie it has everything to do with the Reality of the spiritual warfare mankind is in. We are created in the image of God therefore we are first spirits.

My friends, brothers and sisters what we are seeing on television and movies are not merely just entertainment, It’s SPIRITUAL WARFARE. Television has in times past been broke down into TELL-A-VISION. Who’s vision is being told? Who are the holders of the vision? Are they not the Screenwriters? God says in Romans 12:2 to be transformed in the mind. I once read this quote “If we change the way we look at things the things we look at will change”. What if God is trying to show his children something? Reveal something to his children? In my next blog Lord willing, we will be dissecting the trailer to “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows”. Be blessed

"Lost and Found the Testimony" - Coming Soon

"Lost and Found the Testimony" was originally titled "Lost and Found Again the Testimony" and was originally going to be a silent film using clips from "The Passion of Joan of Arc" byDreyer. My reason for changing the title is because it was too lengthy. My reasons for changing it from a silent film, using found footage to an original film using actors is as follows.

1) The LORD placed it on my heart to show it as I saw it. And using found footage wouldn't be my testimony, but rather a Possibility of what could've happened-

2) In the Art world it would be respected, but it wouldn't be completely Original because of Found Footage.

What is Lost and Found the Testimony about?

"Lost and Found the Testimony" is a sequel to the short film "Lost and Found". I can sympathize with The Son of Sam and the Virginia Tech Shooter. Reason being is because I left my physical earthly presence and was thrown into a spiritual place and had it never been for the LORD Jesus Christ I would've been swallowed Up.

Mentally and Spiritually I was in a desert, but physically my body was on earth. God himself spoke to me out of the fire and let me know my disobedience should've been handled with Justice, but instead he showed me Mercy. The perception is when God shows Mercy it's easy for him, but thats not what I saw. I saw a struggle between Justice and Mercy- A battle between saving my life or ending it-

Anthony is leaning in watching the television, he slowly pulls his head back in shock.

What makes this film different?

Have any other people heard the voice of God speaking out of fire, as you have, and lived? Has any God ever tried to take for himself one nation out of another nation, by testings, by miraculous signs and wonders, by war, by a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, or by great and awesome deeds, like all the things the LORD your God did for you in Egypt before your very eyes?... Deut 4:33-34

Search God in "Avatar"

Looking at the film Avatar from the truth of God’s Word will reveal hidden messages within the movie. The writer of this film might have done it intentionally or not, but the truth remains that as viewers, believers, and doers of Gods Word we’re able to hear him speaking to us through this film.

This is the dilemma that the protagonist Corporal faces as he enters the world of Avatar. He initially goes in as part of the Colonels mission, but soon realizes who the evil one is. The sinners in this film are the Colonel and his gang. They go to shed innocent blood on a race of people that do the humans no harm all because of the precious goods there land posses. They murder them cold blooded for riches. This is exactly what God warns us about in Proverbs 1:10 when he says,
“My son, if sinners entice you,
do not consent.
11 If they say, “Come with us, let us lie in wait for blood;
let us ambush the innocent without reason…13 we shall find all precious goods,
we shall fill our houses with plunder…”

Although God wasn’t speaking to the protagonist he is speaking to us, his children, the believers of the Gospel. This is overlooked in the film. Gods Word stands is can be seen by his children If we search for it. The validity of his word is in plain sight to those who believe. Could God be ministering to his children through this film? Continue to read pray about it and you decide. Know that in order to view films in a way that we can see God's Word Made Manifest we must have knowledge about God's Word. We must have a relationship with him. That's the beauty of searching for God because everyone has there on experiences with him and can share new insights. Hidden messages not intentionally put there by the screen writer, but intentionally put there by God himself.

One must transform the way they view cinema and Look for God in it.
In one way the film and decisions made by Corporal can be looked at as scripted and of his own. But look again. Line up his decisions with the Word of God. Is God speaking to him? And if so is he also speaking through him to us? Corporal decides to fight against the EVIL one or the Colonel and his army. God say’s in proverbs 15 “my son, do not walk in the way with them;
hold back your foot from their paths” This is exactly what Corporal does when he realizes that these people have souls and it would be wrong to kill them for no reason.

16 for their feet run to evil,
and they make haste to shed blood”“

Countless times the evil Colonel tries to take the Avatar by force while Corporal tries to by more time and make peace. Colonel is driven by money, rage, war, and blood shed.

17 For in vain is a net spread
in the sight of any bird,
18 but these men lie in wait for their own blood;
they set an ambush for their own lives.


Colonel and his army thought they would bomb the Avatar people get their gold and leave. Just like that shed innocent blood and make a fortune. WRONG. God say’s in the next verse,

19 Such are the ways of everyone who is greedy for unjust gain; it takes away the life of its possessors”“

What happened to Colonel at the end of the film? HE dies as well as the rest of his army with only a few remaining. They went against God’s Law. They were greedy of gain and suffered the consequences. They sought to take life, but instead they’re lives were taken.

Now with this same mentality let’s look at what God is has to say about the protagonist (Corporal) based off his Word.

13 Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who gets understanding,
14 for the gain from her is better than gain from silver and her profit better than gold.
15 She is more precious than jewels, and nothing you desire can compare with her.
16 Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor.
17 Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.
18 She is a tree of life to those who lay hold of her; those who hold her fast are called blessed”

Corporal makes the decision to side with the Avatar based off of Wisdom. He chooses to stand by the Avatar instead of his own human race. God calls this man Blessed because he chose to walk in the way of wisdom and remove his foot from the evil path. God say’s that the gain of wisdom is better than gold and silver. HE gained wisdom by learning the culture of the Avatar an saw them as his own. Colonel on the other hand remained ignorant although the scientists as well as the protagonist try to give him some insight. He becomes the great warrior of the land and is honored and respected by all who dwell therin. He was first an outcast, but because he chose wisdom over silver he became honored. Wow if God isn’t speaking in this movie than I don’t know who is.

Although this film speaks about Demi gods we as Christians need to look past that and hold on to the morals of the one and true Living God, Jesus Christ.

In my efforts not to bore you all to death I cut it short, but part 2 will be posted soon. Also this is what the book “See God Daily” is about. It’s about transforming our minds to search for the God who sought us not only in film, but other mediums of entertainment as well. Remember he is Omnipotent and Omnipresent. I would love to hear your ideas and anything else you would like to say. God Bless.
