Chapter 744: The Origin of Seeking Religion and Seeking Teaching

Mai Ke listened to Napoleon's introduction to the conflicts related to religion in Sri Lanka and the Maldives, and at the same time, he also thought of Xiao Chaogui's report on the deeds of early Christians in India and the practice of faith that they have persisted in until now.

He was now soberly aware that before proceeding further into the interior of India, the Kingdom of Heaven must rethink and determine the relevant policies of the Kingdom of Heaven.

Mai Ke knows that no matter what kind of ideological system, no matter how strange the form and content is, there is a reason for its occurrence, and if it continues, there must be suitable conditions for its existence.

Mai Ke not only listened to Napoleon's report, but also did not ignore a trace of his own experience, at the same time, he was also sure that Peter, who had not yet reported, must have encountered similar problems, and most likely this guy also encountered a new conflict of beliefs similar to such a system of thought.

So Mai Ke decided to settle this matter first: "Peter, this time of waiting for others is just to talk about the problems you brought, and then after everyone comes, you can consider and discuss it together, if it is really important." ”

Peter: "Okay, although the problem I encountered is not as strict as Lao Na's, but it is more unique, do you know the goddess of the Ganges?"

Mai Ke: "I've heard of it, it seems to be one of the Hindu deities, have you met him?"

Peter: "It's easy to meet her, with my Peter's grace, isn't it all the way unimpeded?" Unfortunately, I met her followers, and I stopped my fleet, and these people have a great future. They didn't listen to what I said, and for the first time I realized the meaning of that proverb in Chinese, how do you say it?"

Mai Ke: "'Xiucai meets soldiers, it is unreasonable'; but you are Xiucai, they soldiers; and I really think that you, Xiucai, are also fake, don't say it clearly, it would be good if you could let them understand what you are talking about." ”

Peter: "You're always so direct! They shouldn't stop me, should they? But use force against them. You said it was so cold, and the gang were all naked, except for one of their trousers, and jumped into the river. Fill that section of the Ganges! more than half a mile long. Not to mention how spectacular the view is!"

Mai Ke: "Those believers can't all be women, right? Look at how detailed you describe them! Remember that you always don't pay attention to details! That's right. Why did they stop you, did they ask for anything?"

Peter: "you! The people who went down to the river, and the men I saw, they tried so hard to stop me for one purpose." They wanted me to go and meet their goddess Ganges, because that's how everything that passed through here, and only after they thought it showed my worship and my heart, they let me go on. ”

Mai Ke: "Sure enough, I have a headache! Okay, let's discuss it together in a while." ”

At this time, the participants invited by Mai Ke arrived one after another, including the former governor Dalhousie, the former commander-in-chief Gao Fu, the future leader of the Ganges covenant of the heavenly kingdom, Xiao Chaogui, the commander-in-chief of the Western Expeditionary Army, the Commander-in-Chief of the Western Expeditionary Army, Mu Ci Yunli, and the first mayor of the holy city of Dhaka, Murchi.

Then came the Commander of the Long Knife Legion, Mohan, the Captain of the Round Knife Squad of the First Heavenly Special Warfare Team, the Captain of the Scimitar Squad of the Second Special Warfare Team, Tira, the Captain of the Second Special Warfare Team, Mu Han Med, the Chief of the Special Operations Division, the former leader of Zhehelin, the former leader of the Untouchables, and the leader of All India.

There are also Chen Yucheng, who has just returned from the front line, the captain of the war elephant team wormhole, and the leader of the Zebu Legion Mei Xin.

In addition, the commander of the British fleet, Gao Ren, was also specially invited by Mai Ke, and he had already counted this old man in his own people.

Mai Ke's logic is very simple, his seventy-year-old brother, the extremely treacherous and cunning master, are all dead set on heaven, at the age of fifty, the younger brother who admires his brother incomparably, is there any other choice?

Looking at these elites from all walks of life who originally had different beliefs and different societies gathered together in the middle of the night because of the Lord Jesus, Mai Ke couldn't help but be a little excited, they are all the power of the Holy Spirit!

Mai Ke: "Good midnight, brothers and sisters! I called you all out of the blue, because the two commanders of the sailors who came from afar have encountered some problems of conflict of faith, and if these problems are not resolved, we will not be able to sleep well! Therefore, it is necessary for everyone to sacrifice a little sleep time! Let us pray that God will be the leader of this meeting. ”

Everyone bowed their heads together.

Mai Ke: "Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for the honor and trust you have given us to send us to India at this time to carry out your plans, for the Holy Spirit to guide and watch over each of us, so that all our words will be in accordance with your will and acceptable to you, and thank you for praying for being named in the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen!"

Everyone: "Amen!"

Mai Ke first repeated to everyone the existing policy of faith in the kingdom of heaven, there are three in total.

First, no person, no action, no measure can change the nature of the kingdom of heaven, but it is for the purpose of achieving the kingdom of heaven, which is a society in which all people are united according to the teachings of the Bible and the principles of Christian faith, and the purpose of the kingdom of heaven is to glorify God alone.

Second, on the premise of acknowledging the first and guaranteeing that the first principle will not be violated at any time, all people, regardless of denomination, religion, or belief, may live and serve in the kingdom of heaven.

Article 3: All those who hold public office in the Kingdom of Heaven must fulfill their responsibilities in their positions under the guidance of the first principle, and must not operate any religious ceremonies or religious activities that are personal to them and have nothing to do with their official duties.

Zwingli: "I did not participate in the formulation of this policy, but I understand that it provides a minimum basis for the expansion of the kingdom of heaven, and at the same time sets the requirements that must be met for those who participate in the administration of the kingdom at all levels, or for those who have not yet been Christians, in order to unite the forces that can be united at that particular stage to achieve the goals of that stage." ”

Six strokes: "So, this is not what any of us here today asks, because we are all Christians, and there is the example of the Lord Jesus there as our standard, and on that basis, we carry out some limited cooperation with those who are not in the Lord, according to these three points." ”

Mai Ke: "The clarification of the two brothers is very correct! Everyone here today, whether you realize it or not, whether you have done it or not, is already higher than these three articles, so you can follow these three days and achieve the goal of the kingdom of heaven! Is it clear to everyone?"

Everyone: "Understood!"

Peter: "I already understood, and it would be stupid not to understand." ”

Mai Ke: "Shut up, you." Without the guidance of the Holy Spirit, none of us understand!"

He also said to everyone: "Now I need to be clear about two things: first, no matter what kind of belief system it is, we all know that there are reasons for it, and the main reason is that the person concerned expects to achieve their goals through the practice of faith, and this goal cannot be achieved without such practice.

This yearning, especially in places of great suffering, is most evident! This is why India is the most religiously diverse in front of us! Knowing this, we further understand what we are here for!

"Second, we can understand and sympathize with the goals of the different religions, but we must not regard them as our goals! All we must pursue our goals, not theirs! But our goals, if achieved, must not only achieve theirs in substance, but greatly surpass them!

Therefore, brothers and sisters, we must unify our understanding and take this understanding as our foundation and starting point to take each specific religious system seriously.

In addition, I would like to emphasize that this basic understanding is not the object of discussion, but the foundation of each individual, otherwise you are not qualified to discuss and participate in the treatment of different religions.

"Do you understand?"

"Understood!" Half of them looked as usual, while the other half had their kidneys turned very solemn.

Now, let's start a discussion of strategies for dealing with different religions. ”

Mai Ke is the final word.
