Jungle Book #7

Last night I watched movie number 7, Jungle Book. Good little story line with a fun group of characters. I enjoyed this movie mainly because as I was watching it I recalled several stories in the Bible. In fact, one entire scene all of the dialogue quoted scripture. Here are some examples of stories I was reminded of:

*When the "man cub" Mowgli was transported in a basket I thought of Moses.
*The snake Kaa, was like the serpent in the Bible. He tried to deceive Mowgli and Bagheera. I thought this one was kind of funny because Bagheera was in the middle of being "deceived" by Kaa and Mowgli snapped him out of it. This kind of reminded me of how our brothers/sisters in Christ help bring us back to reality...holding us accountable.
*Bagheera tells Mowgli when Baloo is thought to be dead... "Greater love hath no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13

Overall, I thought this was pretty neat. I don't know if any of this was intentional or just common sayings/actions which I'll talk about in my next Blog (ideas are running through my head like crazy!). Go Jungle Book, very deserving of spot number 7 on this list!
