isn't there a rule that restricts people from talking about MTG on a christian forum?
Building A Bridge: MTG’s Library of AlexandriaDid you know Magic The Gathering has at least two cards that you as a believer can use as a bridge to witness to MTG players. They are: Library of Alexandria from their Arabian Nights expansion and Nebuchadnezzar from the Chronicles expansion. You can share with them the Truth about both....

Obviously Redemption players generally care a lot about the source of Redemption cards, since it's more meaningful to us than a source of cards, but I don't know enough about the average MTG player to know if this would work.

Alexander the Great founded the city of Alexandria in Egypt and died in 323 B.C. At that point you can show them the Winged Leopard beast of the Rock of The Ages Expansion which represents his empire. The 4 winged, 4 headed beast represents the speed in which he conquered the know world and the 4 parts in which his empire was divided after his death. One of Alexander’s Generals, Ptolemy I Soter took control of this great city which is located along the Mediterranean Sea Northwest of the city of Memphis situated on the Nile River. It became a center for education and contained a massive library, aka MTG’s Library of Alexandria, which had over 700,000 volumes of books. Then you can say this spiritual principle, Christianity is not based on information knowledge. You can gather all the information on the Earth and still not know who God is. Christianity is based on revelation knowledge, knowledge that is revealed. You can see this by John 7:14-17 when Jesus was teaching in the temple. You ability to learn does not replace your need for Faith and Faith is required of you no matter what you have learned.Ptolemy I was highly intelligent and is described in the Book of Daniel ch. 11 as the King of the South. He was able to start a dynasty that would last for over 200 years. Ptolemy II Philadelphus’s reign was marked by massive building projects such as the light house of Pharos and the Library of Alexandria and commissioned 72 translators to translate the Hebrew Bible into the first Greek translation, the Septuagint. The Library of Alexandria was destroyed by the Saracens in about 642 A.D. who were led by Antiocus II Theos who successfully defeated Ptolemy II.
