Chapter 198: Four Kinds of Believers
Wang Jinjue once considered why he was the only one of the four of them who became the god of hot pot.
In the world of Torrell, to become a god, one must have followers, priesthood, and "divine fire".
The priesthood is the three of them, you change one sentence, I change one sentence, and the devil changes it. The faithful were also available after the opening. Only the "divine fire" is only available to Wang Jinjue.
It was a Shinto artifact "Mirror of the Realms", and there was a trace of divine fire in it that was about to be extinguished, and the price reached 8,000 points.
What is this thing for?
It's just that after God has hit the body, look through the mirror to see what kind of God you have invited, where it comes from, and what its name is.
By coincidence, Wang Jinjue became the god of hot pot.
Please God to come up, only when you become a "god" can you understand "God Fighting", and you have a deeper understanding of "Dutian Please Mystery".
Only this world is suitable for Wang Jinjue. From this point of view, the main god space really collected money and did things.
In his mind, there was a place that shone brightly, and it was the kingdom of God that had not yet been formed.
There is nothing in the kingdom of God but darkness. And his image is of a man of light, and around him, his followers converge into a sea of stars.
Particularly bright and associated with him is his pastor.
This is followed by the bright "devouts", the "fanatics" glowing with black and blue light, and the last slightly bright ones are the "pan-believers".
As for the "righteous believers", Wang Jinjue still has none.
The so-called "pan-believers" only have a shallow belief in the gods, but they do not intend to act and live in strict accordance with the creed teachings of the gods. He said that he believed it, but whether he believed it or not, only he knew it in his heart.
In fact, most believers are at this stage, after all, no faith is going to be hung on the wall.
"Devout believers" believe that the teachings of the gods are close to them, and that the way of life advocated by the gods and the church makes them feel at ease and comfortable. It's not so much about believing in gods as it is about maintaining your favorite way of life and inner feelings.
In the world of Torrell, the teachings of many gods are more like values and codes of conduct. For example, the teachings of the goddess of luck Temorrah:
[People should act boldly in order to be truly alive.] In the vast majority of cases, courage and determination to take risks are far more important than careful planning. Don't hesitate, believe in the goddess and leave yourself to fate. Believe in your luck, you are your own master, and the Goddess will let you know whether this time is luck or bad luck. As long as you are brave and strive to pursue your dreams, the goddess will help you. 】
To sum it up in one sentence, life and death depend on life and wealth!
If you are also such an adventurous opportunist, you will undoubtedly find that the teachings of Temorrah are very much to your taste. Even if you don't believe in Temorrah, there is a high probability that you will be personally connected to your kingdom after death.
Therefore, many Chinese in the twenty-first world came to the Feren Continent, even if they were atheists, but because of their handsomeness, wisdom, loyalty, eagle and wolf Gu and other qualities, they were scrambling to be voters by a bunch of gods.
Because you fit so well with their teachings, even if you don't disdain them.
There is no such thing as a true unbeliever, unless they are fools or vegetative people, and there are truly strange people.
When people live, there will always be some faith! People who have no faith, even if their hearts are like ashes, there are still cults and evil gods whose teachings are in line with you!
And the "fanatics" are not, they ignore all good things for the sake of faith, they can use the most brutal and despicable means for the sake of faith, and they still feel a clear conscience when they do any dirty thing in their hands. The essence is that he is extremely dissatisfied with reality, and wants to use the gods to change reality and realize his ideas, and the higher the degree of dissatisfaction with reality, the higher the degree of fanaticism.
Among Wang Jinjue's believers, there is really a fanatical believer, he believes that the "God of Hot Pot" is the best god in the world, and everyone should be made to believe in the "God of Hot Pot", anyway, anyone who says bad things about the "God of Hot Pot" should be killed.
Although Wang Jinjue has repeatedly told him, he doesn't care what others think.
But a mad believer, living in his own world, promises well on his lips, and what he thinks in his heart, only he knows.
When these three types of believers enter the church, they all think:
The doctrine of this religion is in line with my heart, joining this religion has helped me a lot, God can rely on it, and so on. I only know and agree with the doctrine but I don't know why, or I know a little about it, but it is not profound.
Unlike them are the "Orthodox Christians".
Orthodox Christians, while studying the scriptures and practicing the way of life guided by the doctrine, have this thought: Why do the gods preach such doctrines? Where did the idea of the gods come from?
When Orthodox Christians act in accordance with the scriptures and teachings, observe the changes and connections of everything externally, and investigate the changes and choices of their hearts internally, and finally seize the slightest opportunity to understand why the gods are like this, to have a little awareness of the goals that the gods are pointing to, and to understand why they are the way they are, such people are called righteous believers.
See through the phenomenon, see the essence. They need the gods, and what they need is not the power of the gods, but the guidance of the gods!
They have dreams, but they are confused and helpless in the world, unable to find their own direction of action; They have ideas, but they are struck by worldly strife, their hearts are shaken, and they don't know whether to persist or give up, so they turn to the gods for help.
However, orthodox believers do not want the gods to give them strength, but the gods to give them spiritual guidance, so that they can continue to uphold their convictions and not give up under any difficult conditions.
Righteous believers and fanatics may seem the same when it comes to upholding their beliefs under any difficult conditions, but in fact they are fundamentally different.
The firmness of the fanatical believer, the most important basis of which is dissatisfaction with external reality or a strong desire, is rooted in something external; And the most important foundation of the firmness of righteous believers is their self-knowledge and choice, which is rooted in their own hearts!
To put it simply, orthodox believers are more upside down than fanatical believers!
Just as there is a distinction between bumps. Some of them are hit by life, can't stand the stimulation, give up on themselves, and are willing to fall.
And some of them are hit by life continuously, but he does not give in, even if his favorite wife dies, his favorite son dies, even if his comrades betray! But he clearly understood the problem, and he still had to continue fighting!
It is "thirty-eight years have passed, and a finger has been flicked." You can go to the moon for nine days, you can go down to the five seas to catch turtles, and talk and laugh triumphantly. There is nothing difficult in the world, as long as you are willing to climb! ”
When I wrote the last sentence, I suddenly remembered another sentence: "Suddenly reported that there was a tiger in the world, and tears flew as a downpour." Tearful eyes~
