once, always

i might as well warn you not to read this entry if you had not yet finished the chronicles of narnia.

jacq posted "be thou my vision" on her blog. i also wanted to, but i'll direct you there instead. click here. it reminds me of my mentor and of narnia. the part about the High King brings peter to mind. they were given authority to rule over narnia just as we were given the authority to rule the earth. anyway, when lucy realized that narnia was much bigger than the closet, mrs. badger told her, "it's the world, dear." :)

"once a king or queen of narnia, always a king or queen of narnia." it contradicts with susan's plight in the end. my understanding of salvation tells me that she was supposed to be saved if not for her earlier faith, then for the faithfulness of aslan that they would always have a place there, assuming of course that he's anything like our God.

what happens to the people who have never heard of the Lord Jesus Christ? a knight in the chronicles of narnia was told that he was serving aslan even when he was serving someone else. in that case, was it just a matter of names? i refuse to believe that all religions worship the same god. the mortals are forgetting their roles in trying to switch with the Creator's.
