Old-Time Musicians

Chapter 705 "Bound Volume"

The believers looked at each other and read the thoughtfulness in each other's eyes.

"At that time, King Pharisees of Guyanus went to see Saint Sebastian and said, 'Our nobles fast often, but your disciples do not fast. Why is that?'"

"Saint Sebastian said to them, 'How can the bridegroom mourn while the bridegroom is with his companions? But the day will come when the bridegroom will leave them, and then they will fast.'"

Fanning also threw out a religious allusion in history to deepen everyone's enlightenment.

"No one sews a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for the patch pulls away from the garment, making the tear worse. And no one puts new wine into old wineskins, for the skins burst and the wine spills, ruining the skins. But new wine is put into new wineskins, and both are preserved. The one wearing the old clothes eats the new wine with sweet joy."

"The Lord never said, 'New is honor and old is unrighteousness,' but each has its own proper gift."

"Then I turned my mind and thought, 'Light is good, and it is pleasant to see the sun, but remember the days of darkness, for they will be many, and all that is to come is vanity.'"

"One sows his seed in the morning, and another does not rest his hands in the evening. Be reconciled, all of you, accept. For you do not know which will prosper, the one sowing early or the one sowing late, or whether both are good."

Fanning's words were gentle and generous, and they touched everyone's hearts one by one.

The moonlight shone through the clouds, and the dark night turned into a clear night.

His words always followed the hidden teachings of "Zhu", and like the doctrine documents of the past and present, he presented the purest rhetoric and argumentative style.

It seemed that there was a strange power and wisdom that directly made these clergymen who usually held different opinions understand each other's positions and distress.

The differences between them were also eliminated.

"Bishop Bruno Walter, right?" Fanning said again.

"Oh, yes, yes." Walter's mind was lifted and he hurried forward.

The person the conductor admired and respected most in his life was the teacher in the south, of course his boss, and then there was Master Lavoisier.

Why did he mention my name? Was it because I was guaranteeing my church membership at that time? This was the first time we met face to face, but I definitely recited the Gospel a lot on weekdays. Walter couldn't help but feel flattered and excited.

"A righteous man in the secular world?"

"Yes, I think so. I have been married to my wife for ten years and have two children, and a nephew who is under my guardianship."

"When I returned to Janus from the South, you and I were the guarantors. I really remember it." Fanning recalled.

"Yes, yes, and Bishop Christopher." Walter was very happy. "At that time, my teacher introduced me to a position in the Old Symphony Orchestra, so I returned to the North Continent in advance. Later, Mr. Fanning asked me to help with this, and I also asked Bishop Christopher."

He didn't expect that a church guarantee to "return favors" at that time would actually guarantee a Saint Lavoisier!

Sure enough, in terms of investment vision, if your boss is the first in the world, no one dares to be second.

"You were promoted to 'Forging Lion' at that time, and you have wisdom in teaching the spirituality of 'Candle'. Why did you only receive the position of bishop now?" Fanning asked again.

"Well, the key now needs to be reviewed by the Special Patrol Office, which is very time-consuming. Then the lay believers are promoted to honorary bishops, which is the highest position, and the process for the church to give opinions will be longer. I am not good at that either," Walter explained embarrassedly.

"So those of you who advocate war should reconcile with those who are gentle, and those who are abstinent should also reconcile with the lay people. This is the principle I just asked you to accept."

Fanning nodded slightly to show that he understood, and spoke again gently.

"As for virgins or laymen, I have no command from the Lord, but since I have been shown mercy by the Lord to be faithful, I give you my opinion."

"Because of the present hardship, I think it is better for people to keep to themselves. If a man has a wife, he should not seek to be separated from her; if he has no wife, he should not seek a wife. If you marry and have children, you are not sinning. If a virgin marries and has sex, she is not sinning. However, these people will suffer in their flesh, and I want you to be spared from this suffering."

In a large group of churchgoers, those who served singles or had families all listened quietly and nodded.

Fanning continued earnestly: "For the unmarried man is anxious about the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord. The married man is anxious about the things of the world, how he may please his wife."

"There is also a difference between women and virgins. The unmarried woman is anxious about the things of the Lord, how she may be holy in body and spirit. The married woman is anxious about the things of the world, how she may get her husband to walk in the way of righteousness."

"I say this for your benefit, not to imprison you, but to enable you to do what is right, so that you may serve the Lord with all your heart without distraction."

Many people, including Walter, felt that their spirituality was trembling slightly.

This is a kind of touch after wisdom is enlightened, a touch with mystical experience, and it is by no means a simple "tears in the eyes".

Many non-Janusian nonbelievers even have the idea of ​​being baptized.

This book has been updated recently at ##!! Update!

A bright light suddenly lit up in Melaltine's heart!

He immediately reviewed everything from the beginning to the end: Well, what has Master Lavoisier brought to everyone since his return? In addition to the two religious masterpieces, in addition to teaching the secret of the "Endless Fugue", what other truths did he teach everyone?

In summary, he found that

he talked about the future development direction of religious music, the control of the Special Patrol Office, the territorial dispute with Lydia, the enclosure war in the South, the attitude towards foreigners, and the contradictions between internal factions!

It seems to be based on the doubts of the questioner and is casually expressed.

In fact, all of them are related to the general direction of the church! These are the most core contradictions facing the church today! They are also the most critical and difficult to answer principled issues related to the future fate of Janus!

These arrangements are obviously meaningful!

The issues are indeed very sensitive.

Well, it is no exaggeration to say that they are all "sensitive topics".

But now, they are explained one by one.

There is nothing that cannot be discussed, and everything can be discussed!

So everyone's knot was untied, they were accepted and more harmonious.

"Your Holiness sent me here tonight. I thought it was just an investigation mission, so I didn't show up. It's really a pity, but I have to witness the gospel and accept it." Melaltin took a deep breath.

He realized that what Lavoisier brought this time was not only music works and creative techniques, but also the improvement of the clergy's combat power.

Melaltin had a premonition that Janus might enter an unprecedented period of people's cohesion!

Fanning took the initiative to glance at Laxus and the investigators who were searching on the river beach.

"I saw that when these Theolians revealed their identities just now, some believers avoided their eyes, some retreated, and some still stood upright, but lost their magnanimity in their hearts. Do you know why?"

Fanning still asked Walter, but his voice was solid and mellow, without any consideration for the special patrol hall.

Walter could only smile bitterly: "To be honest, Master Lavoisier, many of us came here to listen to the sermon on 'leave'."
