Wu Shanshan made a lot of delicious food, and everyone devoted themselves wholeheartedly to eating, and before they knew it, night had quietly fallen. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After cleaning up, everyone gathered in the wheelhouse, waiting for the moment when Loki would start the ark.

Suddenly, as Loki said, there was not a single star tonight, and even the moon seemed to be ashamed to see people, hiding behind the clouds and not showing his face, and the whole night sky was pitch black.

"It's exciting to steal under God's nose."

Yagami Ryuzaki was eager to snatch the rudder from Loki and pilot the ark himself.

"Is God strong? How does it compare to Odin? ”

Qin Yi sat on the table, swinging his legs back and forth, his long silver-white hair swaying with the shaking of his body.

"God and Odin are not to be compared, Odin is a definite deity, and God is a belief, perhaps a single deity, or it may be a collective term for many gods. Can you compare a god to a faith? ”

Although Loki is an evil god of fire, even he has never seen the so-called God, but there is a god in mythology, and even the divine realm is widely spread.

God is the God who created the universe in Judea and Christianity. Regarded as the supreme belief of religious believers, in Christianity, God is the eternal being, creating and ruling the world.

God is the sustainer and creator of the universe. Deism says that God is the creator of the universe. Pantheism, on the other hand, holds that God is the universe itself.

The name of God is YHWH, and the Jews did not dare to pronounce the divine name of Yahwh directly, but only recorded the consonants without vowels, and avoided pronouncing YWH with another word, Adonay.

The vowels of Adonay are noted under YHWH in the scriptures, and they are never read in conjunction with YHWH, but are read as Adonay.

Later, the Greek Septuagint LXX changed YHWH directly as kurio (LORD) in accordance with the Jewish tradition of avoidance, and many later translations followed suit. The quotation of the Old Testament in the New Testament is based on the Septuagint Translation, so the entire New Testament is only referred to by the name of the Lord Kurio and not by any transliteration or paraphrase of YHWH.

Both the English word god and the German word Gutt are derived from the ancient Gothic word guth in the Indo-European language family before the pre-Christianity Dynasty, which originally meant "the one who is supplied" or "the one who is sacrificed", and the root word is "casting" which means a cast image of a god.

YHWH was originally only "the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob", the only God. In the Old Testament of the Bible, YHWH is known as Elohim and El, and YHWH was originally the god of rain and storm similar to Baal in the ancient Hebrew faith.

In the sixth century B.C., when the kingdom of Israel fell, Josiah, the kingdom of Judah, burned the statues of Asherah and Baal in the temple of the Lord.

The Jewish congregation quotes Deuteronomy from the Hebrew Bible: "Hear, Israelites! Jehovah is our God, Jehovah is our only God! ”

YHWH is the supreme unifying deity, "Beginning with me and ending with me." There are no gods but me. He is the creator and savior of "omniscient", "omnipotent" and "all-good".

After Cyrus freed the Babylonian Jewish elite, Nehemiah and Ezra were inspired to emphasize the tradition of revelation, prophesying that the Messiah (i.e., Jesus) would come again to save Israel and rebuild the kingdom of Israel.

As a result of the alien rule of the Persians, Greeks, and Romans, the Jews diverged in their understanding and political positions of the Old Testament and divided into different sects, including the Pharisees, who emphasized the legalistic tradition, and the Sadducees, who were centered on the chief priests, and the Essene sect, which was formed in the wilderness by dissidents who rejected the priestly authority of Jerusalem.

Influenced by Zoroastrianism, the Essenes emphasized revelation and looked forward to the coming of the Messiah and the end of the world. In the Christian faith, Jesus is the Savior, the Son of God, the incarnate Son of the Trinity.

By believing in Jesus for eternal life, Jesus made the New Covenant with mankind with His blood, and the Old Covenant was thus fulfilled. God is good, out of love for mankind and was crucified for the original sin of mankind, washed away the original sin of mankind with His blood, and through the belief that Jesus is the Son of God and the resurrection of Jesus, mankind can enter the Kingdom of Heaven and be with God again.

Because God raised Jesus from the dead, so those who trust in Jesus can also be resurrected after death. Judaism does not recognize Jesus as the Son of God, does not recognize the Trinity, i.e., Judaism only recognizes Yahweh as one ontology and does not recognize Yahweh as three persons, because the Jews record in the Talmud that Jesus was only an illegitimate son, a sinner impersonating God, just like Balaam.

Odin is just an ordinary god, there is a statue of him in the world, and people respect him very much, but after all, he is a real individual and cannot become a human faith.

And God may just be a kind of sustenance for human beings, and there may be a few gods who do things that make people mistake them for the God they believe in, but no one can be sure who God really is.

If you have seen it, Loki has seen it too, but he is not God, he is just the leader of the angel clan. That is, the culprit who forced Lucifer to fall, the supreme god of the heavenly realm.

But he is not the God of human faith, many things he is not worthy of his age alone, and he is not a kind old man, but a handsome young man, the angel clan has always been known for his handsome appearance, and he is no exception.

Of course, among all the angels, the most handsome is the former archangel Lucifer. At that time, Lucifer had six pairs of white wings behind him, golden hair, and delicate facial features, exuding divine light all over his body. Covered by any angel in the heavenly realm, including the chief and the so-called Son.

"Let's rest, let's rest, I'm going to start the ark, it will take a few days to get to Muspelheim, I can't be sure, but it can't be more than five days at most, we will all spend these five days on the ark, it will be boring."

It would be boring indeed, there was nothing on the Inexhaustible Fountain of Hewagmir, not even a view, and without a comparator, the Ark would give the illusion that it had always been in place and had never moved.

The energy hedron was placed on a small hole in the middle of the rudder, and it immediately glowed. Loki pushed up what looked like a switch-like wooden stick and took the helm.

If it weren't for the fact that they saw the car behind them getting farther and farther away, they really thought that the ark was not moving.

"Okay, let's go back and rest, this ark can only be controlled by me, you don't know the direction and can't take the helm. And as a god, it doesn't matter if I rest or not, just remember to cook me something delicious. ”
