TV and music: a christian interpretation

           In the Hills have Eyes, Ruby (the daughter of the monsters) sacrifices herself to help the victims She pushes the monsters off a cliff and goes down with them. She survives.
          In Twilight, Jasper is always in pain, and Alice is psychic. Jasper is an empath, They both refuse to drink blood, and Jasper feels all the pain. Vampires aren't real, but some people think they are. In my interpretation, Jasper resists his temptation, like the Lord says to, and refuses to drink blood. He embraces his pain. Alice tries to stop her psychic visions from happening. She shows the Volturi (the vampire government) what would happen if there was a war. She brought peace. The vampires and werewolves were enemies with each other, and Jacob, an angel, brought them together, like Russia and USA in the world wars. They fought Hitler together. Both in the book and real life, peace came. Peace came from Yahweh.
        I watched two different versions of Twilight. In one version, it showed me true peace: faeries and archangels loving one another. Bella and Edward lying in a grassy field, telepathically communicating. She lets Edward into her head. I don't remember all of it, but I do remember that the faeries and the angels were protectors. I saw a worse version too: the vampires attacked people and were violent. People who think they are vampires (and aren't christian) are deluded, but they stab people and drink peoples' blood. Faeries often think they are vampires, because some of their teeth look almost like fangs.
      In Lord of the Rings, Arwen chooses a mortal life because if Aragorn wasn't alive, she wouldn't want to exist. Aragorn would tell Arwen, "I'm an archangel, silly. I'm immortal too." Aragorn becomes an archangel elf, and so does Arwen. They have true love. When Arwen "chose a mortal life", she would have been possessed by a demon. When I screamed, "I choose a mortal life", i was possessed by demons. I choose to be immortal, because Jesus promises eternal life for all christians, and everyone becomes christian.
       When Frodo wants to be Lord of the Rings, he only does it because "Sauron" (the devil) possesses him and forces him to do so. Gollum bites his finger off. Gollum is drawn to evil power, and is addicted to it. Frodo is released, and feels free, and pushes Gollum and the evil ring into the fire of "Mordor". Together, they destroy evil. God will destroy evil.
         Yahweh writes, "Be wise in the way you act towards outsiders; make the most of every opportunity. Let your conversation be always filled with grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer to everyone." (Colossians 4:5-6). In LOTR, Samwise take the ring to take the burden off of Frodo, to stop the orcs from finding it. The orcs used to be elves, just like Gollum used to be a hobbit. The hobbits were wise and trusted Aragorn. He was different, and so were they, and they accepted each other. Merry and Pippin wanted a second breakfast, so Aragorn gave them both a peach. The forbidden fruit was destroyed a long time ago, so it wasn't that.
       I watched some dance movies. Ballarinas did hip-hop, and street dancers did ballet. In "the Dance Acadamey" (an australian TV show), the dance teacher said, "this is ballet not gymnastics." In true dance, gymnastics is a part of the dance. How is this God's Word?  Dance and gymnastics inspires people, and people realize that angels are real and have ethereal wings. Gymnastics helps people become angels and faeries and archangels. In gymnastics, God helps you 99.9%, then 99.0, then 95, until you have it yourself. It takes a long time.
      In the movie Chocolate, an autistic girl becomes good at Kung Fu, Kung Fu is a quiet, gentle sport, but Chocolate screams and lets the pain out and helps her family get money for food. Stealing isn't okay, but, I think, in the movie, she finds her real father in her kung fu lessons. Autism is a gift from God.
        In LOTR, Boramir tries to steal the ring from Frodo so he can use its power. Frodo runs away because a faerie said that ring bearers were destined to be alone. Aragorn finds Frodo, and Frodo offers the ring to Aragorn. Aragorn closes Frodo's hand around the ring and touches Frodo's hand in prayer. I pray that way all the time: with one hand over a fist. Aragorn refuses to trust evil. Prophets and archangels refuse to touch evil: they know that it is Jesus that will destroy evil forever. It started when He died on the cross. Some people remained evil. It's the second coming now, and God is sending the evil into hell and letting archangels preach to them.  Someday, all of earth and all the other inhabitable planets and heaven will be perfectly good. When Frodo leaves on his journey to Mordor. Samwise comes with him. He jumps into the water, even though he can't swim. Frodo saves him. Best friends stick together: no one, not even a "ring bearer", is destined to be alone.
       Frodo takes a boat to heaven (this is a metaphor for the highway to heaven), and Samwise follows. Frodo isn't Jesus, though. The ring wears him down, as evil always done. Frodo is constantly hunted by evil beings, and Samwise protects Frodo.
      
      In "More of You" by Colton Dixon, he writes that our lives are meant to be dedicated to God. It doesn't mean we don't have a self; it means he wants God to make him who he's meant to be. "The Proof of Your love" is about an archangel rescuing Peter from jail and Peter running back in to save everyone from the dungeon. In his cell, he took off his deafening headphones and the strap in his mouth (like in the music video), and meditates peacefully knowing our dad would rescue him.
     In Beyonce's song, "Pretty hurts" (which was covered by a faerie), it means that trying to be perfect is a disease. It's against anorexia and bulimia and plastic surgery (she says "Its your soul that needs a surgery). It's against hatred of your face. In the faerie version of the song, she sings "Its okay not to be okay" just like Plumb says in "Exhale".  The faerie runs on the air and meditates in the silence of the woodlands.
     People fast to lose weight. The real reason for fasting is to please God. Yahweh writes through Isaiah, "Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chains of the injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke? Is it not to share your food with the hungry and provide the poor wanderer with shelter - when you see the naked, to clothe them, and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood? Then your light will  break forth like dawn, and your healing will quickly appeal; then your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard." (Isaiah 58:6-8) Anorexics fast to lose weight - mystics fast for the glory of God - to meditate and to trust that God will put food in their stomachs - so they can save and give and be free. Don't fast to be pretty. Being underweight isn't pretty; God said to me, "Be strong, not skinny." Strong, the new skinny. Women can be just as muscular as men. If you make an effort to be strong - both physically and spiritually - you will be.
