Summary

"I thought he would come," said Voldemort in his high, clear voice, his eyes on the leaping flames. "I expected him to come."

These were the words ushered from Voldemort’s mouth just moments before Harry Potter met his apparent demise. In this moment, Harry had made the choice to sacrifice himself in order to protect his friends- exchanging his own life for the safety of every other witch and wizard who bravely fought against Voldemort’s forces.

And for a little while, it looked as though this may have been the end for Harry. Unlike his previous confrontations with Voldemort– like his meeting with a fragmented Voldemort attached to Professor Quirrell, or their duel in the graveyard of Little Hangleton – this time Harry had come forward without any intentions to fight back. He came to die.

Of course we later find out that Harry, who stared death right in the face, eventually survives. But what I want to discuss today is HOW he survives.

If we go by Harry Potter canon, there are several explanations that shed light on how Harry manages to survive, and we owe our gratitude to Dumbledore for providing us with answers to these sorts of questions.

But what I want to suggest today…Is that Dumbledore LIED. Join me in today’s video as we discuss WHY Dumbledore lied and explore the REAL WAY that Harry was able to return to the land of the living.

Let’s dive in.
