Liu Jin couldn't help but frown as he listened to the bishop's nonsense.
The Holy See is obviously well prepared. Even these missionaries have learned the Ming Dynasty dialect and can speak the Ming Dynasty dialect quite well. From his speech, it is also known that they have a relatively good understanding of some situations in the Ming Dynasty.
Looking at the people around them, many people nodded in deep agreement after hearing what they said.
People are greedy for life and afraid of death.
Therefore, almost all religions will create something similar.
For example, heaven, heaven and hell, the afterlife, etc. If you believe in religion, you can wash away your sins, and you can ascend to the kingdom of heaven and enjoy blessings after death, or you can be reincarnated into a wealthy family and enjoy glory and wealth in the afterlife.
.
On the other hand, if you don't believe in religion, you won't be able to wash away your sins. After death, you will go to hell and undergo severe torture to pay for your sins, or you may be reincarnated as an animal in the next life and receive the flesh of a mermaid.
This is common to almost all religions.
Christianity is like this, Buddhism is like this, yslj is not different, even Hinduism in Tianzhu is like this, almost all religions use this method.
In order to make people feel that they are guilty, they even preach that people are born with mouths, that people are guilty of eating meat, so they must be vegetarians, so as to alleviate their sins, etc.
The most essential purpose of everything is to let people believe in their own religion and develop followers.
At the same time, almost all religions will deliberately compile some scriptures and the like, using some gods to explain some things that everyone has not been able to understand clearly, and at the same time reflect the greatness and fraternity of gods.
They will also make up some non-existent heavens, hells, etc. to seduce and intimidate ignorant people into believing in them. At the same time, most of them will ask you to be kind, filial to your parents, etc. to cover up your true nature.
At this moment, Liu Jin listened carefully to the missionary's words. The other party used this method so innocently that many people at the scene were stunned for a moment after being fooled.
Some people even expressed on the spot that they wanted to join the religion and become their followers, hoping to wash away their sins so that they could enter the kingdom of heaven after death and enjoy happiness in the next life.
"The lost lambs~"
"Return to the embrace of the Lord, believe in the Lord, and you will surely obtain salvation. Do one good deed every day. You will wash away your sins, enter the kingdom of heaven after death, and join a wealthy family in the next life."
Clementine has a very loud voice and speaks very well in Ming Dynasty. He has spent a lot of hard work to learn from others. He can even write beautiful calligraphy. All this is to come to Ming Dynasty.
Spread the light of the Lord.
“What does it take to believe in your Christianity?”
Someone stood up and asked.
"You don't need to do anything. You just need to worship the Lord at home and then go to the church to pray every week."
Clementine replied with a kind smile.
At first glance, these people in front of them are Ming people who are either rich or noble. They are all dressed in extraordinary clothes. If they can be developed into believers, it will be very helpful for the spread of Christianity in the Ming Dynasty.
“But we don’t have churches in Ming Dynasty?”
Someone asked again immediately.
"Child of the Lord, please don't worry about this problem. Soon we will build the first church of the Ming Dynasty here in the capital of the Ming Dynasty."
Clementine said very confidently.
“As long as you believe in the Lord, can you really ascend to heaven after death?”
"Of course, the Lord loves the world. As long as people believe in the Lord, always keep the Lord in their hearts, and use everything they have to practice the Lord's purposes, they will be able to wash away their sins and enter heaven after death."
"What will it be like to go to hell if your sins are not washed away?"
"Hell is boundless, with a total of eighteen levels of hell. Each level of hell corresponds to the corresponding punishment, such as tongue pulling, scissors, steamer, oil pan, mountain of knives, sea of fire, etc. If you have not washed away your sins, you need to go through ten
Only after the torture of the eight hells can one be reincarnated."
"And because of my own sins, even if I am reincarnated, I can only be reincarnated as an animal, and I cannot be reincarnated as a human being, let alone be reincarnated into a wealthy family."
“Is it useful to do good deeds without believing in Christ?”
"Of course it is useful. As long as you do one good deed every day, you can reduce your sins. But if you don't believe in the Lord, all the good deeds you have done will be compromised."
"We all believe in Buddhism. Believing in Buddhism is about the same as believing in Christianity, right?"
"There is still a big difference. Our Christian Lord is the greatest and most almighty God in the world, and the Buddha you mentioned is just a very ordinary god. It is definitely better to believe in the Lord than to believe in the Buddha.
"
People kept asking him questions at the scene, and he was able to answer them fluently. He also had a good understanding of some situations in the Ming Dynasty and had done enough homework.
"You are simply deceiving the public with your lies~"
At this moment, a voice sounded, like a basin of cold water poured on everyone present, and it immediately attracted everyone's attention, and everyone looked over.
"Young man, you seem to have a big prejudice against us?"
Clementine looked at Liu Jin carefully. He was not angry, but asked very gently.
"Of course~"
Liu Jin said with great certainty.
"First, our Ming court clearly stipulates that no individual or group can privately spread religion anywhere in the Ming Dynasty without permission."
"Have you obtained permission from our Ming court?"
Liu Jin asked righteously.
"Although we have not yet obtained permission from the Ming Dynasty court, we are negotiating this matter with His Majesty the Ming Emperor and will obtain permission soon."
"What's more, the Lord is omnipotent. The Lord will allow the Ming Dynasty to allow us to preach. We have not committed any crimes, let alone any illegal crimes. Why are we not allowed to preach in the Ming Dynasty?"
"We are just spreading the glory of the Lord. We are also trying to persuade people to be positive and do good, but we are not encouraging people to do bad things."
Upon hearing this, Clementine narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a while and replied.
"That means we haven't obtained the permission yet. Since we haven't obtained the permission, it's a violation of our Ming Dynasty's laws."
Liu Jin sneered.
"Second, your so-called gods, heaven, hell, and afterlife, etc., are all bad deceptions. This is not only true for your Christianity, but also for Buddhism, and also for yslj and Tianzhu's Hinduism.
Too."
"There is no difference between you at all, and as far as I know, your Christianity seems to have some indulgences and the like, which are specially used to make money. You can use money to buy indulgences to atone for your sins. Finally,
You have all squandered all this money."
Liu Jin continued without waiting for his reply.
After hearing Liu Jin's words, Clementine became anxious. Just as he was about to defend himself, Liu Jin continued.
"And why your pope often exposes all kinds of scandals, is greedy for money, lustful, extravagant, and uses various means to attack dissidents."
"You keep saying that you must do good deeds every day, but why can all of you clergymen get married, have children, and have a lot of money?"
"If there really is a Lord, I think the Lord will first throw your pope into the eighteenth level of hell, and send all of you clergy into the reincarnation of animals, making cows and horses for the devout believers.
.”
"As far as I know, here in Europe, many people who believe in your Christianity are not only exploited by the kings and nobles, but also by you religious people. They need to pay tithes every year, that is, they must pay what they have earned.
Tithes of finances are given to the church, and in addition, indulgences must be purchased, etc.”
When I heard Liu Jin's words, I was shocked on the spot.
"It turns out they are all liars~"
"Let me tell you, it feels similar to those monks. It's like heaven or hell."
"You still have to pay taxes. What indulgences are you selling? It's too heavy to pay ten percent of the property. The taxes our Ming Emperor has not collected are that much. They are so greedy. If you believe them, how can you believe them?"
Aren’t you asking us to pay money to these barbarians?”
"Let me tell you, what kind of good intentions can these barbarians have? It turns out they are all trying to defraud us of our money. They came here deliberately to defraud us because we Ming people are rich."
"These foreign monks can actually marry, have children, and drink wine and eat meat. They are not as good as our Ming monks. At least some of them are real eminent monks."
"Monks are the same. They all deceive people out of money. I know that there are some monks in the capital who drink wine every day, but some people will give money to these monks."
"It's not all their lies. They say donating sesame oil money can accumulate blessings and bring blessings in the future. They are actually similar to these foreign monks. They are all lies."
Everyone was talking to each other, and all of a sudden they no longer had any good impressions of Christianity.
Originally, the people of the Ming Dynasty were very proud and looked down on the foreign barbarians and things like that. They felt that everything was good for the Ming Dynasty. But now when they heard Liu Jin say this, they immediately stood up and left without even thinking about it.
Clementine listened to the words of everyone present and then looked at the people leaving one after another. Everyone was dumbfounded. Then he came to Liu Jin angrily and said: "You are hindering us from spreading the glory of the Lord to the Ming Dynasty.
He has committed a boundless sin and will suffer all kinds of torture and suffering after death. He will not be able to be reborn forever and will suffer in hell."
"A foreign monk~"
"Be careful what you say, this is the Ming Dynasty, your gods can't control this place."
Liu Jin did not speak, but Zhu Houzhao stood up, glared at him fiercely and said.
"No one knows whether I will go to hell, but I'm afraid you won't have a good life in the future."
Liu Jin looked at the other party, smiled and said.
These missionaries are really arrogant, and I must treat them well.
