In my book,"The Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe", we see the lion Aslan give his life for the betrayer Peter to the White Queen. You could say he sinned, and when he did, he became a slave to the White Witch. But, the great and mighty Aslan gave himself up for the sins of Peter. She takes him to the stone tablet and kills him. She thinks she has completely won the Land of Narnia. There will always be winter, but no Christmas! Then three days later, Aslan returns with a fierce GROWL that shakes the whole country of Narnia. He defeats death, and then defeats the queen. Peter and his three companions become Kings and Queens of Narnia, of course all thanks to Aslan.
Narnia is a world in which I thought up which could be like our world, but with talking animals and interesting things of this sort. The role of Jesus in our world would be played by Aslan in Narnia. I thought what would Jesus be like in this world? It was necessary for him to be the most powerful and graceful of all the creatures in Narnia. Naturally a lion fit this description. When he roars, the whole creation shakes!
At the end of the big battle in the book, Aslan walks away from the victors over the White Witch and her minions. It is not understood why he is leaving, and Mr. Beaver (A Narnian) explained why. "He warned them saying, "He'll be coming and going. One day you'll see him, and the next day you won't." He'll often drop in. "Only you mustn't press him. He's wild you know. Not a tame lion."
Jesus was tame tame in our world either (when he was walking around in it). What makes me say this? People in his day and ours say he's a good teacher, a prophet, or a way to God. He will not agree with what people say about him. We must.listen to him what he says about himself in the four Gospels in the Bible. He stated over and over I am God. We can conclude no sane mere mortal would say, "I am God." So, my famous say is Jesus is either a Liar, a Lunatic, or he is LORD!
When I read the Gospels, he clearly calls himself Lord and accepts worship, and no good Jew of his time would accept the worship of people. Not even the angels in the Bible would accept worship either. My conclusions again, Jesus is exactly who is said he was. The Lord of all creation, God.
What are your thoughts, Do you agree, Disagree, Unsure??? Let's discuss this most important matter.

“I'm on Aslan's side even if there isn't any Aslan to lead it. I'm going to live as like a Narnian as I can even if there isn't any Narnia.”
