Crusade against the Pope

Chapter 95 Calling Sinners to Repent
Brother Jesus in Heaven can give universal and infinite love to all people in the world. No matter if they are sinners, tax collectors, or prostitutes, as long as they are children of the Heavenly Father, Brother Jesus will do his best to influence them.

While walking in Jerusalem, the heavenly brother Jesus declared: "I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance."

He regarded his mercy toward sinners as the attitude of the Heavenly Father toward sinners, which made the Pharisees deeply dissatisfied.

Regarding these views of Jesus, Gillis agrees with them in theory, but in practice he adapts them to the circumstances of the time and place.

I agree with it in theory because simply drawing pictures cannot solve the root of the problem. It only solves the person who caused the problem and may cause new problems.

If it gets even more outrageous, it can even develop into a situation where the person who points out the problem will be solved, as if the problem does not exist if no one points it out.

Therefore, we must always persist in curing diseases and saving lives.

Gaillis deeply agrees with Brother Tian's other point of view.

【Since sin is so widespread, those who think they do not need salvation have become blind to themselves. 】

To put it simply, this passage means: Because the world is so bad, many people have given up on themselves.

For people living in the old society, the world was a quagmire in which they were trapped. If they did not steal, rob, rise up in resistance, violate the law, and commit crimes in the eyes of the world, they would not be able to survive.

In the old society, many people could not live a stable life just by earning their own living. They had to choose between eating or being eaten in a cannibalistic society.

If you are not humble and obedient, you will not be able to survive at all.

For such people, even Garys is unwilling to stand on the moral high ground and point fingers at them, because they have no choice.

For such people, Gailis will give them a chance to choose. As long as they are willing to embark on the right path and repent and atone for their sins, they can live a decent life after completing their torture.

When spiritual repentance and physical atonement are completed together, not only will the Father in heaven forgive that person's sins, but the kings on earth will also regard him as a sinless person.

This is salvation, and it is calling sinners to repent.

However, Gailis could not be so kind to another group of people.

Because they had the room for choice, but they still acted on their own will and without shame, feasting on the flesh and blood of the people, taking pride in it and seeing it as the right way to survive.

Perhaps the Father in heaven and Christ in the world can forgive their sins after they repent and reform.

But as the Son of Man, Garys could not forgive the blood sins these people committed in the mortal world.

In short, it is the job of Heavenly Brother Jesus to forgive sinners, and it is the job of Garys to send those people to Heavenly Brother Jesus.

"I can't stand it anymore! Simon, please prepare a carriage for me in a few days. I want to go and talk to Leonard."

"My brother once said: "Do not resist the evil one, and if someone strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also."

"But he is him, and I am me. He can influence the wicked to repent and reform, but I can't do that. In my opinion, if the sword is not placed on the necks of those sinners, how can they know that if they commit crimes in this world, they will not only go to hell after death, but also be punished in this life!"

Isabel became excited after hearing what Gellis said.

"Are you going to chop off Leonard? When are you leaving? Take me with you!" Garys, leaning against the head of the bed, smacked his lips. How come Isabel is more anxious than him?

"Don't be impatient. Now is not the time to chop that old guy off. I just want him to give up some of his ideas and collect some interest at the same time."

Based on the current plan and route, there would not be much benefit if Garys directly killed Leonard.

This is because, at present, Garys does not have enough talents under his command to take over Reynard's territory. If he acts rashly, he will easily fall into a hostile situation with the entire Kingdom of Jerusalem.

Long-term war friction will interrupt the current stable development trend of the cult, and make people like Garys run around in a desperate situation.

You must know that simply killing the noble lords will not bring about a change in order, but will instead cause the original order to collapse.

Without the ability to take over too much land, and without the ideas spreading widely and gaining the recognition of the majority of the people, rashly breaking the original order will only push the people into a more tragic abyss.

He, Gailis, had made a request to himself and the cult: We are not only good at destroying an old world, we are also good at building a new world.

Gailis continued, "It's easy to be a thief, but you can't be on guard against thieves. If we are always worried about Reynard attacking us, our development will inevitably be burdened."

"It's too passive to expect Reynard to recognize the current situation and send people to negotiate peace with us."

"This time I went to see Leonard mainly because I wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with him and get him to give up the idea of ​​continuing to use force against us."

Simon frowned when he heard what Gellis said. He didn't quite understand.

"Prophet? You went to talk to Reynard? Is he the kind of person you can have a good conversation with? After all, that guy seems to be no different from a madman."

Regarding Simon's doubts, Gaillis's answer was: "Reynard is actually a very easy-going person, but most people don't know how to talk to him."

John understood the meaning of Garys' words, patted Simon on the shoulder, and helped Garys to say: "The reason why most bastards are difficult to communicate is simply because they are missing a blade on the edge of their necks."

"The purpose of the Holy Son's meeting with Leonard is to make Leonard understand that if he continues to tangle with us, he will go to hell before he can fulfill his ambitions."

"Indeed, Leonard is a madman who doesn't care about his own life, but as long as he still has his own ambition and hopes to put the cross on Karl's room, there is still a possibility of communication."

Garys nodded slightly. What John said was what he was thinking.

Of course, in addition to asking Leonard to give up the armed confrontation with Garys and others, Garys also plans to collect some interest in advance.

Today, all the villages and towns that originally belonged to Ahmed’s tax zone have been successfully connected, and the next step is to expand to the surrounding areas.

If we don't collect the interest in advance, the development of the cult will soon reach a bottleneck. It's almost autumn ploughing time, and there's not much time left before the war next year.

Garys must race against time to develop his base and accumulate the capital to survive the chaos next year.

After telling his next plan, Gellis sighed again.

　The air conditioner in the company was broken, so I had to code after get off work. Due to time constraints, the quality was not satisfactory. :-(
　　The second update is before twelve o'clock.
