Chapter 540: It's complicated but people's hearts
Joshua didn't know that Fei Chi was extremely dissatisfied, and continued, "...... The serpent said to the woman, 'Did God really say that you should not eat of all the trees in the garden?' ’
The woman said to the serpent, "We may eat of the tree of the garden, but of the tree in the garden, God said, 'You shall not eat of it, nor touch it, lest you die.'" ’’
The serpent said to the woman, 'You will not necessarily die, for God knows that in the day you eat of it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God who knows good and evil.' ’
So when the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food, and pleasing to the eye, and lovely, and wise, she plucked it and ate it. and to her husband, and she also ate it.
And their eyes were bright, and they realized that they were naked, so they took the leaves of the fig tree and made a dress for themselves.
And a cool breeze arose, and the LORD God walked in the garden.
And when the man and his wife heard the voice of God, they hid themselves in the trees of the garden from the presence of the LORD God.
The LORD God called the man and said to him, 'Where are you?' ’
He said, 'When I heard your voice in the garden, I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself.' ’
And the Lord said: 'Who told you to be naked?' Have you eaten of the tree that I commanded you not to eat? ’
The man said, 'The woman you gave me to live with me, she gave me the fruit of the tree, and I ate it.'" ’
The Lord God said to the woman, 'What have you done?' ’
The woman said, 'The serpent deceived me, and I ate it.'" ’
And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Thou hast done this, and thou hast been cursed above all the beasts of the beast. Thou shalt walk on thy belly, and thou shalt eat dirt all the days of thy life. I will make enmity between you and women; and thy seed and the offspring of the woman are enmity against one another. The offspring of the woman will bruise your head; You're going to hurt his heel. ’
……”
Fei Chi couldn't help it again, "Master, it's too much!" Who eats the dirt? I never eat soil, and those who eat soil are earthworms, does he understand? ”
Chi Feichi: "......"
Fei Chi actually listened so seriously.
Fei Mo smashed his mouth, "It's really annoying, I will only hate people who believe in Jehovah in the future." ”
Chi Feichi: "......"
Well, Feimo listened quite seriously.
“…… And he said to the woman, 'I will multiply the pain of thy conception, and the sorrow of thy birth will be greatly.' Thou shalt desire thy husband, and thy husband shall rule over thee. ’
And he said unto Adam, Because thou hast hearkened unto thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee not to eat, the earth shall be cursed for thy sake. and thou shalt toil all the days of thy life, that thou shalt get food out of the ground. The earth will bring forth thorns and thistles, and thou shalt eat the herbs of the field. and thou shalt sweat thy face before thou shalt eat, until thou wilt return to the earth; for thou art out of the earth. You are dust, and you will return to dust. ’”
Joshua's voice recited in a calm voice, and that unhurried way of speaking was probably a habit.
Adam named his wife Eve because she was the mother of all living beings.
And the LORD God made garments of skins for Adam and his wife.
The Lord God said, 'That man is like us, and knows good and evil.' Now lest he stretch out his hand and pluck the tree of life to eat, and live forever. ’……”
"The snake said that eating it does not necessarily die, people do not die, the snake said that after eating, they know good and evil like a god, and people also know good and evil when they eat," Chi Feichi walked to the wall, looked at the pile of things, and said calmly, "The snake didn't lie, so who lied?" Who said before that you would die if you eat it? ”
Joshua closed his eyes, "The Lord God." ”
"If the fruit of good and evil is really the fruit of sin, and God knows good and evil as well, is he also sinful?" Chi Feichi continued, his tone was still calm, as if he was stating the facts, "He is afraid, people are clear-sighted, and they begin to be ashamed, such a person he can no longer control and control, he is afraid that people will eat the fruits of other trees and gain the same ability as him, and from then on the toys he appreciates will compete with him, and he will be the only one, so he banishes people and stays away from the Garden of Eden...... Joshua, let people know how to distinguish between good and evil, and think carefully, who is it that you want to help? Who is it that deceives and curses? ”
Before fooling people, you must do your homework and look for a breakthrough point.
"I ......," Joshua lowered his head and looked at you firmly, "I would like to dedicate my life of loyalty to you, and for this is why I came here, I was born 60 years ago, and my parents were devout Christians, and they named me Joshua, and they told me that it meant to be a person who had received God's help, and also to be a shy, intelligent, independent, faithful believer." ”
"I was baptized at birth to be washed away from my sins, and in this life I believed in the commandments, and led people to goodness, that they might worship him and serve him, and I had no god but him, and I did not worship any other god, nor did I covet all that was of another...... I was his disciple, but he forsaken me. ”
"The people I had helped them with, but they denied everything I had done that day, they burst into my room, they accused me of being a sinner, they smashed my things, they beat me."
"The people whom I have loved and forgived have shown their might with a hideous look at me."
"The wanderers I have provided them with bread and water are also laughing and teasing me."
"My God, my Lord, I prayed in my heart that they would see His followers."
"God has not seen my situation, He has not remembered my giving, He has not heard my voice."
"At that time, I was still following his admonitions, I was still patient and lenient, I went to church to confess, but God gave up on me completely, and he nailed me to a nail pillar."
……
Chi Feichi listened quietly.
What really broke Joshua's faith was people, the same kind of people in a certain group.
It has been said that a person who has done a lot of evil will be praised if he does a good deed, while a person who has been doing good will be spurned if he has done an evil deed.
This phenomenon exists, but in fact, when a person who has done a lot of evil has done a good deed, people will also doubt his motives, suspect that he is just a whim, and still will not be so generous to forgive him and trust him, but only want the person who will hurt them to stop hurting them, so they will give encouragement; And when a good person does an evil thing, people also know that it is just a fault and know his essence, but it is precisely because they know that he is good that people dare not hide their evil thoughts.
People have a herd mentality, and the good and evil that the general public believes will also be the standard for evaluating good and evil in the individual's subconscious.
If this criterion is expressed in points, good plus and evil subtracted, then most people are on the passing line, and most people are on the passing line out of a total of 100 points, and most people are on 60 points.
Some people want to pull up everyone's scores, that is a good person who has the world in mind, and naturally there are people who are not so selfless and generous.
For people with 40 or 50 points, those people despise them in their hearts, but they also feel that the other party is not worthy of being with them and is not worthy of being compared with themselves, so they are naturally more tolerant.
30 points is a limit.
For people with 10 or 20 points, those people will find it incredible, either for fear of being taken away and stay away, or they will think that these people will lower the overall score and want to try to pull a hand, or they will feel that these people with 10 or 20 points should be eliminated.
And the existence of such an average negative score as an organization, those people will feel terrible, can't imagine that someone can brush the negative score, while thinking about quickly removing it, and on the other hand, they are afraid of the mentality that can brush the negative score.
Not to mention anything else, Gin alone is enough to pull down the overall score of the organization by 80 points...... Ahem, anyway, seeing a group of people with an overall negative score of nearly 100 points makes me feel a little frightened, right?
Further on.
For people with 70 points, these people don't care, they are jealous, but they firmly believe that they are not impossible, but they are unwilling or did not do it.
For people with 80 or 90 points, these people find that they may not be able to do it, admire, and occasionally become self-defilement, and then they are angry at their own self-defilement, and when the opportunity to make the other party drop points comes, in order to keep that little balance in their hearts, they will pull that person down, expand the stain to blame, and try to lower more points, so that he can become like everyone else, and you can comfort yourself: Look, people with 80 or 90 points are the same as me!
And for people with 100 points, in order to cater to the illusion of perfection in their hearts, they are reluctant to deduct a point and become imperfect, so they become saints.
Even for people with a score of 99, these people feel that it is a shortcoming, an uncomfortable shortcoming, and they want to exaggerate the contribution and try to make up for that point.
Of course, there are those who try to raise everyone's average score, there are those who try to lower everyone's score, there are people who are compassionate, and there are people who hold grudges regardless of the score.
It's more complicated than people's hearts.
It's just that in general, in Joshua's particular group, Joshua was the guy in his 80s, and when they found out they could pull him down, a lot of people did that.
Pull it down, he's just like us, and I won't feel like I'm getting dirty anymore when I face him. ’
'What I can't do, he can't do, yes, he's not that good......
'I haven't been given up or punished by God, he has, which means that he is worse than me, it is too good, and the feeling that he is superior to me is just an illusion......
'Everybody doesn't like him, and if I don't like him a little more, people should agree and praise me......
They don't really think that Joshua is unforgivable, but they are just venting their evil thoughts, finding comfort for themselves, joining in the fun, and getting attention.
“…… I see their faces, they are as hypocritical and despicable as Jehovah," Joshua still says, "I feel unworthy of what I have suffered, I don't understand what I have done for so many years, I have come to hate everything I have done, I have become disgusted with all my past, I have hated my words, I have even hated the name Joshua......"
