'Imagine' John Lennon A Christian? - Contrary To Atheist Claims, New Film Says, Beatles Were On Spiritual Journey

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 

Drew Zahn / WND

The Beatles’ legendary founder John Lennon has become a celebrated “atheist” for penning the lyrics “imagine there’s no heaven” and claiming his band had become “more popular than Jesus.”

But history’s temptation to embrace the Beatles as champions of anti-Christianity is a bit overzealous and betrays the band members’ personal journeys of faith, claims international evangelist Ray Comfort, whose new film “Genius” and book “The Beatles, God & the Bible” are sure to challenge what many have come to believe about “the Fab Four.”

“I believe that history has given John Lennon a bad rap,” Comfort writes in “The Beatles, God & the Bible.” “Like all of us, he had his many sins, but he wasn’t the hard, satanically driven, proud, anti-Christian, God-hating person many make him out to be.”

Comfort told WND the key to understanding the Beatles’ faith is putting some of their controversial comments in the proper context

“It’s true that back in their heyday in 1964 or ’65, someone asked the Beatles if they believed in God and John Lennon said they were all atheists,” Comfort explained. “But as they began to mature in their thinking, they realized that God exists. As they matured, each one of the Beatles acknowledged the existence of God in their own particular way.”

      People say I’ve got it all wrong when I say…

      I believe I was given my place on Heaven by Him. Make the most of it. It won’t last but please die before you die. But we haven’t realised this so we are doomed to make it hell else He would be among us for All to see and it would be Good.

      I know that, by choice, we make our lives miserable and fear ridden by turning this miracle into hell.

      So having said all that and hoping my kind of crazy doesn’t stand out too much. I want to say.

      Imagine! This poem rocks.
      I see you John Lennon.

      Well, it’s a clever title for a book about nothing. How about the same author take on the subject of Santa Clause – The Secret Jew. Or, how about, Gandhi – The Secret Shopaholic. Or, Hitlers Vegetarian Cookbook. Or Sid Vicious – The Secret Barry Manilow Stalker. A better title would have been, John Lennon – Bigger than Religion.

    • yeawatever

      garbage, John said he was atheist in the 60′s, the trip to India to see the Maharishi, was to get into meditation. Your research is f…ed. Imagine was just a result of his thoughts.
