Yet i also knew that illustrations are not all denounced in the Spirit of Prophecy, and in fact, the 1843 chart was &#8220;directed by God&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>I had read enough to be absolutely convinced that if done in a proper manner, to give glory to God, that making a movie of this book could be a great way to spread the words in it, thus giving God glory.  So i had already decided to try and find friends in India, where there are many animators and who will work for less than astronomical rates, to help, and i would go physically and work on it myself.<\/p>\n<p>Well, i came to India 4 weeks ago, and the main man whose family i am staying with, and who was a bit reluctant about helping very much in this project over the 3 years that i have known him, opened up Child Guidance, and read the following quote which greatly strengthened my conviction that this movie idea is definitely from God:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>God commanded the Hebrews to teach their children His requirements, and to make them acquainted with all His dealings with their people. The home and the school were one. In the place of stranger lips, the loving hearts of the father and mother were to give instruction to their children. Thoughts of God were associated with all the events of daily life in the home dwelling. The mighty works of God in the deliverance of His people were recounted with eloquence and reverential awe. The great truths of God&#8217;s providence and of the future life were impressed on the young mind. It became acquainted with the true, the good, the beautiful. <\/p>\n<p>By the use of figures and symbols the lessons given were illustrated, and thus more firmly fixed in the memory. Through this<br \/>\n<strong>animated imagery<\/strong><br \/>\n the child was, almost from infancy, initiated into the mysteries, the wisdom, and the hopes of his fathers, and guided in a way of thinking and feeling and anticipating, that reached beyond things seen and transitory, to the unseen and eternal.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>May God guide and direct this project, and give me wisdom into how to get started!<br \/>\n<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I wondered for several years after first getting the idea to make the 1858 Great Controversy into a movie if this was even God&#8217;s will.
