When both sides of the confrontation saw their supreme commander suddenly descending, they didn't know what was going on, and asked each other's companions on the left and right in surprise, and the result was the same reply - shaking their heads and not knowing.

In fact, Ruan Fuyun and Ruan Shiming are also like falling into a fog. They wondered how the two of them had come here? A second before they had been at the Prince's Castle, and now they were on the battlefield where the two armies were fighting.

No matter what he thought in his heart, there was no delay in action. Mai Kehe and Ruan Shiming shouted to their side at the same time: "The two sides have reached a consensus, and the allied forces will accept the peaceful reorganization of the expeditionary force! ”

Mai Ke then returned to the side of the expeditionary force in the encirclement, and Nguyen Phuc Van and Nguyen Thi Minh returned to the side of the Allied forces.

Mai Ke informed Liuhua and Ruan Shixiong of the solution, and then asked everyone to get ready and move on to the next step. Especially the military pastoral group and the teaching group. The number of people who had not yet been arranged was obviously insufficient, so those who were already in the various companies were drawn out to meet the urgent needs.

With a little arrangement here, Mai Ke led his guards to the Allied camp. He estimated that Erruan would not be too smooth.

As soon as Erruan returned, he informed all parties of the results of his talks with Mai Ke. There was no surprise in the prince's army, and he expressed his obedience to this decision. However, the Great Tree Sect and the French Marines disagreed, and said that such a major event could only be decided after the three parties of the Allied Forces discussed and agreed.

The commander of the French army, Qiu Jili, almost went berserk and shouted: "I will resolutely not surrender! I will never follow the old path of Napoleon!"

The leader of the Great Tree Sect was not fierce, but said, "Our doctrine does not have the word surrender. But the look was resolute.

Erruan happily accepted Mai Ke's conditions. The main reason is that there is a common faith. And this reason cannot be directly explained to Qiu Jili and Ruan Dashu, because they do not know Qiu Jili's state of belief and understand the other religions that Ruan Dashu believes.

Therefore, Er Nguyen had no choice but to say something about the benefits of accepting the peaceful adaptation. It is a pity that it is not convincing to ask these two people to give up the immediate benefits and seek the uncertain future benefits.

was at a stalemate, Mai Ke came, and Erruan breathed a sigh of relief. Qiu Jili and Ruan Dashu raised their vigilance to the highest level.

Ruan Shiming introduced the two sides without shaking hands. Just nodded to each other. It means that you know who the other person is. Then, Er Ruan told Mai Ke about the progress and problems.

"What is the primary purpose of life?" Mai Ke suddenly asked the two of them.

"Glorify God and rejoice in Him forever!" Qiu Jili naturally blurted out.

Ruan Dashu was not so fast. He frowned and thought for a moment. Only then did he reply, "It should be immortal." ”

"What is the primary purpose of life?" suddenly. Qiu Jili also asked, and the objects of the questioning were obviously Er Ruan and Mai Ke.

"Glorify God. Nguyen Phuc Yun replied.

"Be with God. The voice came from Ruan Shiming.

"Glorify God and rejoice in Him. Forever!" was Mai Ke's answer.

When Qiu Jili heard this, he smiled and shook hands with the three of them when he went up. Especially when Mai Ke shook hands, he not only used his hands hard, but also approached him and said, "The little catechesis is well memorized." ”

Mai Ke couldn't help laughing: "Of course, a requirement that cannot be changed is to memorize the full text of the Little Catechism. You're not bad either, blurted out. ”

After shaking hands, Qiu Jili took a few steps back and announced on the spot that the French marines had accepted the reorganization and were completely at the disposal of the expeditionary force.

Mai Ke and Er Ruan both applauded!

Now Erruan sees that Qiu Jili is no longer the arrogant foreigner, and Qiu Jili is also very pleasing to the eyes of these Annan natives whom he has always looked down on. Both sides smiled genuinely.

At this moment, Ruan Dashu felt uncomfortable, and he was left alone.

A few people did not rush him, but waited quietly there.

As a result, this wordless waiting made him feel more and more stressed, and sweat trickled down his forehead.

In order to ease his nervousness, Mai Ke asked, "Do you have any questions?" ”

"I would like to know what is the similarity and difference between our 'immortality' and your 'presence with God'. Can you explain it to me?"

"You're welcome. In fact, the two are identical on a literal and personal level.

The object of Christian faith is the living God, and only by attaining immortality can one be with God. To die is the opposite of being with God, but to be separated from Him. Therefore, being with God must involve the premise of immortality.

On a personal level, that is, from a human point of view, being with God means that you have to be in harmony with God, and to do this is to never be separated from God, and thus, to have eternal life. And this eternal life is what you call immortality. ”

Ruan Dashu nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Understood." So what's the difference?"

"The biggest difference between the two is that the starting point is different, the method is different, the purpose is different, so in the final analysis, the result is different. Mai Ke succinctly summarizes the fundamental differences between Christianity and other religions.

"Tell me more about it. Ruan Dashu requested.

The starting point is different – the eternal life that Christians seek is the beginning of God, God first created man, and then saved man, and it was God who gave us eternal life. So God does these things according to His will. We know this, and we have to be thankful in everything. Other religions, on the other hand, proceed from the desires of man, or from the gods who have created themselves.

The way is different - God's salvation is God's initiative to give his grace to man, and then change man so that he gradually meets God's requirements, that is, the requirements of eternal life. That is, to receive eternal life, God has always been there to lead. Including the guidance of the Holy Spirit, so that God can pursue eternal life from the heart. In other religions, the process of pursuing immortality is also carried out according to human standards, either in the way chosen by man, or according to the requirements of the gods who created themselves.

The purpose is different – the purpose of the Christian is to glorify God and to be with Him forever. The purpose of the Christian life is God's creative purpose, and one of the basic requirements of a Godly man is to fully align his own purpose with God's purpose. The purpose of other religions in the pursuit of immortality is to live forever, or to satisfy the requirements of the gods who created themselves.

The result is different—the eternal life of Christians is guaranteed by God, whereas the immortality of other religions is not possible at all by their own efforts or by man-made false promises of God. It is said that all roads lead to Rome, but there is only one road to heaven, that is, to the Lord Jesus, in order to truly reach eternal life. In other religions, the end result is death. Their role is, at best, a different way of dying, or dying more comfortably, that is, dying less painfully. ”

Ruan Dashu held his head and was silent, and after a long while, he raised his head and said, "Thank you for telling me so much! Can you give me a little more time? I'm going to think deeper. ”

"Okay, in the meantime, I'll pray for you!" (To be continued......)
