I'm a sucker for C. S. Lewis. I have dozens of his books on Kindle already but just bought three more. I've bought them all for around this price whenever they go on sale, so thanks for sharing.

I just finished reading his space trilogy and reading Aboliton of Man now.

I love cs Lewis (my favorites are the great divorce, screwtape letters, and narnia), but the four loves was kinda hard to get through. Just kind of a slog through some of the types of love. It ended well though. I'd pay $2-3 for it to fill out my kindle versions of his works, if I hadn't already purchased it years back.

Check if your local library has Libby or hoopla. I've been able to get every CS Lewis book as a free rental. It's easy to send the e-book to your Kindle. If you need more than two weeks to read each one, you can put your Kindle in airplane mode, and it won't return until you reconnect to the Internet.

Our pastor along with many teachers quote CS Lewis. Later I found out he had views that aren't orthodox Christian.

"Lewis taught and believed in purgatory (despite the fact that Article 22 of the Thirty-nine Articles of the Church of England describes the doctrine of purgatory as "repugnant to the Word of God"), said prayers for the dead, believed in the physical presence of Christ's body and blood in the bread and wine, a sacrament that he came to call "Mass," practiced and taught auricular confession, believed in baptismal salvation, and free will. As we have seen, he rejected the inerrancy of Scripture and justification by faith alone, as well as the doctrines of total depravity and the sovereignty of God.
So we ask again: Did C. S. Lewis go to Heaven? And our answer must be: Not if he believed what he wrote in his books and letters."

I'm so confused by your statement. I don't see dealbreaker with lewis belief though. If he believed in Jesus and followed that where he could, that is all anyone can really do.

Book reviews at deal sites are not the place or forum for arcane sectarian debates about theology.

As a Christian do you really wat to push people away from a author that has brought millions some relationship with God.

As a Christian you should be so very broken hearted if he did not get to heaven versus the excitement you seem to have imagining him not. You may want to focus on your own faith as what you have done here causes me some doubt about how sincere it is. It is not a matter of one-upmanship and at least Lewis made that abundantly clear.

Faith in Jesus is the only criteria for justification. C.S. Lewis was an apologist and evangelist -- and demonstrated his faith through those works and his life. While aspects of his theology are indeed unorthodox, we can praise God that right theology and doctrine are not criteria for salvation -- otherwise heaven would be a very empty place. Robbins' point of view here is uncharitable and driven by unmentioned motivations. We should recognize the working of God in Lewis' life and praise God for how he used Lewis to make faith accessible to many.
