I'm going to get to heaven and make a beeline to C. S. Lewis to say hi and then be extremely confused when I don't hear him reply in this voice.

It would be an understatement to say, C S Lewis was an intellectual giant of his day.

As Often occurs, I clumsily grasp for Deeper Understanding and clarification in searching KZfaq. Associated with my newly acquired zeal for exploring "Apologetics", as a means to reaching and Positively Intriguing, if not outrightly Converting, these recent generations, specifically my own young adult children. I THANK You for these posts! I Pray, they will help me shine the light of our Savior JESUS into thier Worldly Bombarded Hearts and minds. I can, in this case thank algorithms for putting these writings in my field of veiw. However, Moreover, I believe the Spirit of the Lord works for the good and for His Glory in all the lives of those of us whom are called Children of God, and who "Humble Themselves and Pray". I type all of that, probably grammatically horrible, to say THANK YOU! God Bless You and Your Efforts!

Godbless C.S.Lewis! An apologetic/evangelistic before its time, some may even say prophetic! But most certainly an erudite, analytical & logical thinker, of the highest quality. And also one of the finest English bread, and educated examples of all time. Not even mentioning his fiction works! Bravo C.S.Lewis. bravo 👏 W.A.Cook.from England 🇬🇧

I have read two of his books; Mere Christianity and Screwtape Letters. Thanks Mr C.S. Liews.

You know, it’s almost as if all this Jesus stuff might just be really really important

00:34 - 1. Christianity and Culture 34:56 - 2. To the editor of 'Theology' 40:50 - 3. Peace Proposals for Br.Every and Mr.Bethell

Absolutely marvelous. CS Lewis did a perfect impression of writing in the style of Herodotus, and this narrator is just perfect. Thank you for this and have a very Merry Christmas!

This is very interesting... I remember as a boy being subjected to the idea that ALL that mattered was 'culture'. If one was 'cultured', one would 'automatically' be a good man. As for being a saint, well that was comprised in the all-encompassing notion of being a 'gentleman'. You see, if you were 'cultured', you would not only automatically be a good man but also a gentleman - one could eventually get away with having a mistress without falling from grace but that's another topic altogether. Needless to say, we weren't churchgoers and 'culture' had become an idol in my family circle. Having said this, 'bourgeois' (Christian) culture does have its place as an adjuvant to good morals but should never be considered as an end in itself nor as a replacement for the Sacraments...

Honestly thank you so much for posting these essays

thank you SO MUCH for posting these essays!!!!

I liked the talk of "Good" and "Bad". Is there Good which is Bad, or Bad which is Good? All Good Will not be Grown from. Was the "Act" Good, or was the "Result" Good? The results often place your mind within a situation where you feel accomplishment that doesn't actually aid Growth. It can aid laziness instead, depending on "What" was acquired, by "What exact Work". And "Which" are you "Praising"? The "Work"? Or possibly the "Result"? And what will such self praise get me? What is the result on my self? But can't we always learn easily from "Bad"? Is this "Good"? Should we hope for the "Bad", that we more easily "Grow" with less needed Thought? Would such an entire life be considered "Good" or "Bad"? "Good" if it was "Bad", and "Bad" if it was "Good"? What do we "Desire"? As we decide upon this, doesn't the CONFUSING cycle just continue? And keep setting us up with the EXACT same "Question"?

1 Corinthians 15:3-4 (The Gospel)

I fell asleep listening to this and dreamed I was listening to a sermon by a new priest at our FSSP parish and I was super confused lol

Hold on, if you can't have a Christian literature, then what were the Chronicles of Narnia?

These are very helpful. Thank you for your efforts in putting this channel and these essays together

Random strain of thought work with me. Could we as mankind be using culture to distract ourselves from our true purpose??? For example if we put all of our brains together in a sort of hive mind block chain of different perspectives and simply dug into the Bible as a people what would happen?

Where did you get the voice of the elder scrolls oblivion npc?

Diogenes for Christ! Yes Yes Yes. All I said was that all power is ultimately supported by violence but there is a power coming that requires no violence and when all men are brothers that power will be known and it shall not need name when all men are seeing, but call the power God and the name Heaven

What a brilliant guy! RIP.

c. 55:02

Thanks for posting this!

💘

So who’s the voice of these if not Lewis himself?

Excellent

Interesting new take!

Good stuff! Could you make a playlist of these videos in the chronological order Lewis wrote them? TY!

unsure what exactly he is defining as culture here in this discussion seemingly it is just entertainment, and not things like language, architecture, food, tools, festivals, philosophy etc.

way is there an imagine of Aslan in the tabaco smoke from Lewis's lit pipe

Who is the voice of this?

What's a schizo poster?

Thank you.

This strangely is in line with George Bataille theory that all literature is complicent with evil, that without it there is no drama and thus no interest, so evil is inherent within anything we amuse ourselves and only by acknowledging this reliance can literature communicate fully and intensely. Perhaps the apple in the garden was the just first instance of a Mcguffen.

this is so dense

Actually jesus the moment born in a manger knew who his Father, that's why his disciples also did recognise thus a promised Christ as their great teacher, finally so he's led followers into the Godly Spirit's protection as guidance helping on their Mission entrusted them. I am able to understand it now why three ways relational confirming the Trinity's Infants phase, Youth phase and Adults phase from what he kept on teaching each one about him till next Pauline's phase I am also clear his entire life dedicated become like Jesus & a Slave to Master's splendid works as Holy Spirit's which nobody else could do for Greco Romans and rest of us?! Why because Jesus said Be like a child, St Paul told Don't be like a Child!? Son of God always behaved like One enjoying lilies in field and sorrowful of falling sparrow hoping His Father's all knowing Person, just as People mature St Paul's wanted his Church members to remember while an innocent child has it's side guardian Angels around until when its grown up leading to Devil's den thinking like a Pro able defeating It..

For anyone who is unsure about their salvation please check out Renee Roland on KZfaq, it really is all about Jesus!!

As much as I have loved C.S. as I've have grown in "wisdom and knowledge of the understanding of God" it is sad to see NOW his legalistic understanding of religious Christianity. He has not "rightly divided the word of truth" in that he states the "task" man has been given "is righteousness. " A task is something we must continue to work. A saint in the Body of Christ saved under God's Gospel of grace 1 Cor 15:1-4. BELIEVING CHRIST DIED WAS BURIED AND RESURRECTED FOR OUR SINS." nOT the GOSPEL OF THR KINGDOM--Jesus, John the Baptist, Peter and the Disciples preached under the Law. The Apostle of the Gentiles, PAUL preaches Christ crucified, and the dispensation of God's Grace previously hidden until Christ reveals it to him, after his conversion Gal 1:11, 12. Eph 3:2. Matthee- Luke is Old Testament and under the Law which Jesus adhered to and taught as He walked the earth those 3 1/2 years of His ministry. He/they taught "repent be baptized and look for the Kingdom of Heaven." BELIEVE He was thr Christ, the Son of God...much different than what He committed and entrusted Paul to preach...the Gospel that is the power of Salvation unto God for those that BELIEVE. Lewis is still quoting verses and understanding that peryain to requirements of the Law. When we believe the Holy Spirit writes, thru Paul....God gives us His Righteousness. 2 Cor 5:21 God reconciled the world at the time of the Cross 2 Cor 5 ;18 Our ministry is THIS Word of Reconciliation. One is to BLIEVE He did....1 Cor 15:1-4 It is obvious C.S. Lewis' understanding has not been enlightened to the understanding and meaning of Paul's Epistles-- the ACTUAL New Testament....where men are covered by Christ's Vlood not animals....as they were up and through Christ's ministry and as far as 20 years after His death Acts 20:21 where Peter, James and the Jerusalem church are still ZEALOUS FOR THE LAW. Paul writes the Law is dead in ROMANS.
