"...The Lion of the tribe of Juda..." ~Revelation 5:5

14.4.10

Why Does Aslan Represent God?





"All get what they want. They do not always like it."
-The Magician's Nephew

"You see, they will not let us help them. They have chosen cunning instead of belief. Their prison is only in their own minds, yet they are in that prison; and so afraid of being taken in that they cannot be taken out."
-The Last Battle
 God is the Omniscient One- All Knowing One and is therefore wise.



Aslan is loving, gentle, and merciful.

Even after Uncle Andrew in The Magician's Nephew had messed up so much in Narnia and in his own world by messing with magic, Aslan still gave him the only thing he was still able to receive-sleep.


God is our El- Shaddai- the ever all knowing nourishing One.


Aslan is powerful and mighty.

A lion is king of the jungle. They dominate  the food chain. Their muscles alone are amazing. 

God is Omnipotent (all powerful), and his name El means Strong one.And Abir meaning "to be strong."


Aslan is the Created the world of Narnia. And sang it to life.

God created the whole world and filled it with his song of  love and breath of life.



Aslan gave his life for a traitor to fulfill prophecy, and gave his all for one he loved- Edmund.


God gave his lift for traitors to fullfill prophecy, and gave his all for the ones he loved-YOU and ME.
  

Aslan rose again to conquer the evil witch!
God rose again to conquer death-His and ours!!!!

 Hallelujah! HE IS RISEN!!!!

I like the last picture, Aslan standing with the sun shining behind him. It is a very cool picture

Yes, Maiden Warrior, that picture is just after Aslan has died as a traitor in Edmund's place...It's a beautiful picture of salvation.

And to My Imaginary Horse: I agree that it is a great picture.

I didn't edit these pictures-I just found them on Google images. You are welcome to take any pictures you like!

Love,
Queen Susan
