God in "The Lion King"
I was sitting at home watching tv and "The Lion King" came on. As I started to watch it I was just thinking how it might relate to the bible. I realized that it relates to the story of Moses. Simba and Moses are both princes who were exiled for being accused of murder. While they are exiled they start to mature and basically just hangout until God/Mufasa tells him to go back to his homeland. So, both Simba and Moses both go to their homeland and free their people from the evil ruler Scar/Pharoah. In the end they say, "You see he (Mufasa) lives in you." Since Mufasa is God he lives in Simba like he lives in the hearts of all the christians. Mufasa died to save Simba just like Jesus died to save us from sin. "The Lion King" is filled with several biblical stories. The next time you watch a movie try and see if you can relate it to a story in the Bible.
