Chapter 1368: The Hardest Walk of Taoism (Big Change)
Mai Ke smiled secretly, your brother is also like Lao Hong before, he wants to become a god? After you know the true God we believe in, you don't think like this. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
So, McCor gave him an outline of how God saves people, that is, changes people's hearts.
Mai Ke is worthy of being a priest license, and it didn't take long for him to explain this rather complicated issue to Lao Zeng.
After asking a few more questions, Mai Ke gave further answers, and Lao Zeng felt that he was quite clear.
And I think that if someone asks him, he can answer the Tao, and he can be a teacher!
At present, he naturally doesn't understand what Mai Ke's position is.
"I'll summarize what you said like this, and see if you're right. God's work is twofold. The first point is that the Savior Jesus died on the cross in order to save people, and atoned for the sins of sinners, so that the sins of sinners can be forgiven, otherwise everyone must pay for their sins. Isn't that right?"
"Very good summing up!
"The second is that the Holy Spirit works in people's hearts, so that people can understand the content of the first point, realize that they are sinners, repent and confess their sins, and accept the Lord Jesus as their Savior and Master of life. You also emphasized that no one can know the Lord Jesus without the guidance and illumination of the Holy Spirit. ā
"You have summed it up very well, and you have a good grasp of it! I will tell you another point, which is that God tells Christians this way. These revelations of God are recorded in the Bible. ā
Mai Ke deliberately emphasized the source of the Christian faith, lest he think that it was a good idea from Mai Ke, even if he agreed.
As he spoke, he took out a Bible for him to read, but Lao Zeng took it and looked through some of it, handed it back, and then took out one himself.
It was the one McKee had given him last time.
At a glance, there were many notes added, and they were all fly-headed letters.
It seems that this man was quite serious about reading the Bible.
"Although my understanding and memory are like this, however, I also tell you, Brother Mai Ke, it is one thing for me to remember, and it is another thing to follow it! After I got the fame, although I have been serving in the center, I have been waiting for the opportunity to fully practice the way of Confucius and Mencius, and it is my greatest ambition to apply it to the world! It is also my wife and my father-in-law's expectation for me, and now, although the Manchu Qing Dynasty has been defeated by you elsewhere, in Changsha, I still want to fight with you!"
When he said this ambition, his tone was firm, his expression was fiery, and his eyes suddenly radiated with a fine light, and it is no wonder that this will be the last battle of the great ideas that have accumulated for two thousand years.
"It's nothing, I admire Brother Disheng's persistence, so, let's move on to the next step, you should know, the way of Confucius and Mencius, because of the support of those in power, makes people feel very powerful, but in fact, the way of Confucius and Mencius, not only is it inferior to the Christian faith, even in the kingdom of China, none of the hundreds of schools of thought that have been brutally suppressed, none of them are convinced, only because of the support of the government, everyone uses their own methods to temporarily avoid the edge! Today, they intend to compete again with the Confucianism represented by Brother Disheng......
Before he finished speaking, there was a commotion, from far and near, and it seemed that a team of people galloped over.
Zeng Guofan was at a loss for what was going on, and suddenly, around the corner, a big flag floated out in the wind, with three big characters written on it - old boy!
This sudden third-party intervention made both sides a little dumbfounded, which one is this?
Everyone looked at the words on the flag again, "Old boy?" Who is the old boy? Is this an honorific title, or is it a humble name?
Looking at those people again, it is even more strange, there are about three or five hundred people, and everyone is a cavalryman!
The strange thing is not the cavalry class, but their mounts!
The hundreds of people I saw were all riding bulls, and they were green bulls!
The cattle are divided into five colors, and the green cow is also acceptable, but the way they ride the bull is strange!
More than 400 people, without exception, all of them are riding bulls upside down, that is, all facing the butts of cows!
And their own butts are against the bull's head.
If it's one or two, that's it, all of them are like this, and now there are more than 400 people, all like this!
A herd of cows is running forward, but those who ride the bulls are facing backwards and are also rhythmic on the back of the oxen.
Which direction do you want to go?
Just when everyone was scorched on the outside and tender on the inside, a few boys came out, also riding a bull, the cow was also green, and the same was riding upside down, and the crisp children's sound was neatly released.
"The Tao is very Taoist, very Taoist, and I ask you what kind of way you are taking?"
Ding Shanqing was probably in a hurry to guard Yuelu Academy, and when he saw the strangeness of these people, he was annoyed, and said angrily at the moment: "What do you care about me! I think you are all demons! It's a crooked way! Hurry up and give way to me! Otherwise, I will be overwhelmed by my soldiers and let you troublemakers die!"
A few boys had probably never met such a wicked person, and as soon as they pouted, their cries came out, shouting: "Old boy grandpa, these evil ways bully grandchildren, come and take down these crooked ways!"
Suddenly, an old man in a high-crowned robe, shaking his head, came out of the crowd, sat down on a particularly strong green ox, of course, also riding upside down, and chanted as he walked: "If my way is not good, go west to Guguan! Go to the world for the Tao, and destroy the demons first! Confucius and Mencius are not on the right path, and they are also in the evil way! Children and grandchildren, take down all these demons!"
The old man walked all the way, followed by a big flag, and the three big characters on the flag, "Old Boy", indicated who this old man was.
"Wait!"
Zeng Guofan roared!
"Are you the descendants of Lao Tzu's great sage? If so, we are the descendants of the Confucian sage, don't wash the Dragon King Temple in the big water, and your own family will be infighting! Our ancestor is friends with your grandfather!"
The old boy put away the green cow, sat firmly on the cow's back, and laughed loudly!
"It is true that we are the descendants of Lao Tzu and the Great Sage, and we also know that you are the unworthy descendants of Confucius, but we are not your friends, just as our ancestors were not friends of Confucius! If we say that Confucius is at least a little humble in seeking advice, you don't know where he has been! We and you have long been different from each other and are not complicit, and now we are even more different from each other and not complicit! Our gap has increased a hundredfold compared to that time! Let's put it this way, we still adhere to the Great Dao, all actions are based on the Great Dao first, the Great Dao guides us, we follow the Dao, all the word of the Dao, is to go first, which means to walk in the front! And you, all behaviors, are against the Dao! Because, we and your Confucian and Mencian ways are incompatible! This you will be nonsense, when Confucius was speechless in front of the great sage of Lao Tzu, you are still like this, strong words, there is no meaning! Come on, come on, we will see the real chapter under our hands, and have a fight!"
