Chapter 296: What is eternal life

"What is eternal life, teacher?"

An abrupt voice interrupted Paul III's musings. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

He just used the topic to criticize Yan Wangding, and he also had his own unique experience as a witness, thus explaining why people should pursue eternal life from many aspects.

After saying a lot, he stopped, not only giving everyone a little time to think and digest what he had just said, but also giving himself a little time to think about what was going to be taught next.

Of course, he does not have a fixed textbook, nor does he have a set of immutable teaching arrangements, and even the content is not immutable.

In fact, what he prefers and is better at is to flexibly preach the basic content of those beliefs according to the specific situation of the audience.

But he didn't come up with a reason, and a voice interrupted him.

He had forgotten that one of his students was a well-known TV anchor and had a knack for interviewing, where could such precious time be wasted.

After listening to some lectures just now, Wen Renyi felt that his knowledge of the field of faith had advanced by leaps and bounds.

So as soon as I saw that I was free, I went up and asked a question.

Hmm? After talking about eternal life for a long time, how did you return to the most basic knowledge of faith?

Isn't it clear to everyone what eternal life is?

Even if you don't understand it, shouldn't you understand it?

Why did it come up as a question again?

Is this girl really the anchor of Jinghua TV?

It's not very good.

As everyone knows, this is a place where a professional anchor has a higher level than everyone else.

In fact, it is this most basic thing that is more important than the real interview and valuable broadcast.

The more people don't pay attention to it, the more attention it can be given by a level announcer, and the more brilliant it can be.

Not to mention the rest of the audience, it was Paul III himself, who thought about it carefully, and it seems that there was no discussion about what eternal life is.

At least not seriously and systematically discussed.

Thinking of this, Paul III glanced appreciatively at the smell of strangeness and exclaimed: "Good question!"

He knew that this girl was an anchor and had principles to follow for interviews, so he didn't beat around the bush, but directly replied to the big questions.

"To live forever is to live without eternity, without end, from now to eternity, without end. ”

Wen Ren Yixin answered quickly: "Please describe the basic daily life of eternal life." ”

Paul III was also well prepared, and he opened his mouth and said: "There must be several characteristics like this, the first of which is always with the Creator."

"The second is that there is no sickness, no death, and therefore no tears, no sorrow.

"The third, the deeper everyday life, is that there is no sin, and therefore there is no such thing as the second, which in the final analysis is only the consequence of sin, that is, sin, which leads to those diseases and deaths, and the further consequence, that is, there are no tears and no sorrows, because these sufferings are directly caused by sickness and death.

"Fourthly, there is no such labor as it is now, because this labor is the result of the rejection of man, and everyone rejoices all day long.

"Fifth, rule over the rest of creation, and all creation is subject to the rule of man.

"Sixth, there is no sea, there is no night.

"Seventh, because there is no rule of death, everyone is free.

"Eighth, praise the Creator and worship the Creator daily.

"Ninth, you may have your own job, for example, you can continue to host your television, but you will no longer be forced to work for other reasons, but for the best of the Creator.

Of course, these are some specific contents, and the essence is that everyone is with the Creator, living together in harmony, and they are a wonderful family. ”

Wen Renyi said happily: "Thank you, Mr. Paul, it's so good! It's all something I've never heard of, I like the ninth article the most, I do whatever I like, I won't do it to earn."

You said these are all concrete, so can you talk about the nature of eternal life?"

Paul smiled, right in the middle.

"Well, I might have to spend a little more time and be as subtle as possible, don't you mind this classmate?"

Wen Renyi smiled and said, "Don't mind! Absolutely don't mind, you can say it for as long as you want." ”

Paul II smiled and said: "Maybe everyone is not very unfamiliar with the word eternal life, and those who are already believers will not say it, and true believers who have tasted eternal life certainly know what eternal life is."

Even those who have not yet believed in Christ have heard about the concept of eternal life from other sources, but whether or not to believe it, and what attitudes and actions to take after hearing it vary from person to person.

The reason for the difference is directly related to where we hear about eternal life and our understanding of eternal life.

Let's first explore what eternal life is.

Before we understand eternal life, let's look at what is not eternal life.

"First, immortality is not immortality, immortality is a concept of the Chinese cultural tradition, more precisely a yearning, one meaning of this concept is that the current physical existence will not age, will not die; the other meaning is that although the physical body can die, it can also be reincarnated in other forms after death, and this reincarnation process can be very long, and it can also be stopped after meeting certain standards through a certain procedure, and it will last forever.

"Second, eternal life is not a short life, and then there is endless death, and such a person, even if he survives for a period of time, it is difficult to say that he has life, because the original meaning of life is that there is no death, even if a person lives for a hundred years, compared with the death of hundreds of millions of years, it is really not life.

"Thirdly, eternal life is not a state of separation between the body and the soul, and eternal life must be the union of the material body and the immaterial soul of man, otherwise it is not a human being, let alone eternal life. Without the union of the body and the soul, the body is just a piece of loess, and without the union of the soul and the body, man cannot exist.

After we understand what is not eternal life, let's focus on what eternal life is, and understanding the positive meaning of eternal life is more difficult for most people than understanding what is not eternal life, after all, we have heard, witnessed or experienced too many births, old age, sickness and death, which are not immortal in nature.

"First and foremost, the knowledge of the Creator is eternal life! Eternal life cannot come from ourselves, because we are both finite and sinful, and finite and sinful determine our nature as opposed to eternal life.

For finite nature determines that we do not have natural eternal life ourselves, but are to be aided by the power that provides eternal life, which is possessed only by the Creator of man.
