In fact, as much as I enjoyed the Harry Potter series, I don't know that I will read much more of her stuff.

On the other hand, we all (or most of anyway) read fictional books all the time by authors that we would never agree with on most of what they believe. We enjoy their stories, but don't agree with their life-style. I just call that "life".
I stopped reading fictional books of that genre when I came to the Lord. Seriously. Maybe it's my background. Most of that stuff is not purely fictional. The lands and names are fictional but many of the concepts and terms are every day paganism and even witchcraft and demonism.

Let it be understood that Apostolic Friends Forum is an Apostolic Forum.
Apostolic is defined on AFF as:


  1. There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
