Chapter 324 agreed
Ed thought about it but didn't agree with it, in his opinion, his grandfather's acrylic itself was very strong, and now he still has the help of Mr. Lupin, so it's not easy to get rid of that devil, maybe the battle there may be over at this time!
Of course, although Ed guessed so, he was not 100% sure that Lupin and the others had ended the battle at this time, and Ed also knew that he could weaken the power of the devil during the day, so although he didn't agree with Louise's opinion, he didn't refute anything, but continued to listen to Louise explain why he was looking for the church as the home of the battle.
"As for why you are looking for a church to use as the home of the battle..."Speaking of this, Louise glanced at Ed with a strange look in her eyes before explaining: "First of all, there must be the power of Christian faith in the church, and secondly, in the church, it can be regarded as Mr. Ed's home field, after all, it is also an official exorcist certified by the Catholic Church, isn't it!"
Ed nodded in agreement, although Louise was right, he was indeed an official exorcist certified by the Catholic Church, but in most cases, he did use scientific and technological instruments to search for demons and other supernatural creatures and then expel the other party, so he did not have any magical and strange powers.
Note that Ed himself does not have magical powers, but because he is a Catholic exorcist, he can borrow the power of God, which is the power of God.
However, as I said before, the power of the spirit is also limited and strong and weak, and the strength of the power of the spirit is determined by the user's belief in the gods they believe in, and Ed belongs to that kind of strange Christian!
Why?
He believes in God and believes in Jesus Christ, but his belief is to use scientific theories to explain the existence of gods and the power of gods, to put it bluntly, Ed's faith is not pure, of course, it is a little inappropriate to say this, it should be said that Ed's belief in Jesus Christ is not as simple as other Christians, but to study gods with an attitude of scientific research.
There was once a saying that 'the end of science and technology is theology!' so there is nothing contradictory or wrong with Ed's own belief in Jesus Christ with this scientific spirit, but this belief is fundamentally different.
This leads to the fact that Ed's exorcist is fundamentally different from other traditional exorcists in Christianity, and even in terms of ability, to put it bluntly, Ed's ability in exorcism is completely inferior to those traditional exorcists in Christianity.
Therefore, although Ed can also borrow the power of God to make his words have the blessings of the gods, it is very weak compared to the words and spirits spoken by the orthodox Christian clergy.
Therefore, the choice of church that Louise said is also of great help to Ed himself, at least this spiritual power can be strengthened a lot with the blessing of the power of faith accumulated in the church.
"And, Mr. Ed, have you forgotten that in addition to being a wizard and having magical powers, I am also a Catholic-certified official clergyman, and I have undergone a formal Christian baptism ceremony, so I also have the authority of a Christian clergy!"
Of course, the authority here does not refer to power, but Jesus Christ gave the Christian clergy the right to borrow the power of the gods, for example, prayers, ordinary people, especially those who do not believe in God and atheists, after they pray, they have no other use except for psychological effects, while Christian clergy will be blessed by the gods after praying.
Although you may not be able to see or touch what you pray for with the blessing of the gods, and you don't even know whether the gods are paying attention to your prayers, but in general, the prayers of the clergy are more concerned by God than the prayers of different people.
For example, when an ordinary person speaks, even if he adds the beginning of the sentence 'in the name of God', it is just an ordinary sentence, but if the clergyman says this, then the words he says will be noticed by the gods and the power of the gods will be added to his words, so that the words he says will become the spirit of words.
Therefore, Louise also has the authority to borrow the power of God's blessing, but I don't know how powerful it is, after all, Louise is a wizard, and it is very strange that he can join Christianity, anyway, Ed will not believe that Louise will sincerely believe in Jesus Christ!
After Louise reminded Ed, he realized that he was certified by the Catholic Church as a clergyman, and he had also undergone a formal baptismal ceremony, so he also had priesthood authority.
However, although Louise is also a clergyman and has the authority to borrow the power of God's spirit, the other party has absolutely no formal training, especially in the dangerous situation faced at this time, Louise will not be able to use the spirit of words used by exorcists.
Thinking of this, Ed took out a book with a black cover only the size of an adult's palm from his jacket pocket, touched the cover of the black book, Ed looked nostalgic, handed it to Louise and explained: "This book was given to me by my mentor when I participated in the training of Catholic exorcists, Louise, although you are also a Catholic certified clergy, but you have not undergone professional training as an exorcist..."
Louise listened as she took the black brick-thick book handed over by Ed, and glanced at the cover, which was written with large "Bible" words in gold paint, probably because Ed had been reading it for many years, resulting in some places where the gold paint had fallen off, but the original Bible did not seem to have any defects, and it was very well preserved!
Of course, Louise had read the Bible, and after the Catholic baptismal ceremony, the church gave Louise a complete set of clergy equipment, including the Bible and all kinds of other books related to Christianity!
On weekdays, Louise will also flip through it when she is bored, but more often than not, she holds the Bible and reads a passage before going to bed to help her sleep...
So I was a little puzzled by the Bible that Ed gave him, and looked at Ed suspiciously, and before he could ask, the other party first explained: "This Bible is different from other Bibles, this is the exclusive use of the power of words and spirits by exorcists within Christianity!"
