please don't believe me
Chapter 49 - Heresy 7. This host and that host
"Father Wright is not suitable for the post of bishop, not only because of his personality and ability, but also because he is a 'godly man'.
"There is no doubt that the 'favored of the gods' are more likely to attract people's attention. When they perform miracles, people are more likely to believe their words. But this attention is not necessarily a good thing, because the 'favored of the gods' are priests , the church was forced to be bound to them, and everyone was prosperous, and everyone was lost.
"After observing Father Wright's preaching scene many times, the Sara Provincial Church believes that his 'miracle display' is not impeccable, that is, this 'godly man' may fail.
"In order to prevent the church from being dragged into the quagmire by failure in the future, the decision of the province of Sara is not to support or suppress Father Wright. Under this decision, it is even more impossible for him to become a bishop."
"You mean that the 'God' of Sara is a liar?"
"No, dear Pope." Dai Bowen lowered his eyes, "No one said that. The Sara Provincial Church just thinks that Father Wright's preparation is not thorough enough, and he may not be able to win the trust of the public one day in the future."
"That's what you mean, Dorin, don't use the Sara Province Church as a cover." The Pope encouraged, "You are the future bishop of Sara Province, and what you mean is the meaning of the Sara Province Church."
"Okay." Dai Bowen stopped retorting, "I admit that I personally think that some of Father Wright's actions may violate the teachings."
The Pope smiled.
"Don't be discouraged, young man, you are the future bishop, have confidence in yourself."
Dai Bowen asked suspiciously, "Are you...supporting this decision?"
The Pope smiled and said, "Why not? The province of Sara really deserves its reputation. There is no wiser decision than this."
A thought flashed through Dai Bowen's mind, and he couldn't help asking: "So, Father Wright really...has a false name?"
"Listen to your adjectives, Dorling, the province of Sara really elected a bishop who couldn't be more decent." The Pope smiled, "And you and the Church of Sara Province have lived up to the expectations of the Holy See."
The priest opened his eyes wide: "Holy See! Could it be that the matter of Father Wright has already been introduced to the Holy See?"
"Otherwise, why do you think we are sitting face to face today?" The pope stared at the priest, his expression gradually becoming solemn, "In fact, there are not only 'godly people' in Quebec and Sara."
"what?"
"The Holy See has received reports that there are quite a few clergymen who claim to be 'God's Favored' scattered all over the country, and the most reported ones are in the province where the new bishop who is about to take office is located." The Pope said, "Do you know what this means, my dear? of?"
Dai Bowen was stunned for a moment: "Some people think that the status of 'God's Favored'...is helpful for becoming a bishop?"
The pope replied: "More than helpful. Someone has already used this to achieve their goals..."
He's talking about Wayne!Dai Bowen thought of this almost instantly.
The pope saw his lack of focus and smiled, but it was no longer gentle: "Dear Dorin, maybe you don't know that Sara Province is the only one with a 'God's favor', but in the routine report A church without a word."
This actually has little to do with Dai Bowen, who has not taken office yet, but he is now a representative of the Sara Provincial Church, so he had to reply: "I'm sorry..."
"Don't be sorry, just forget about being polite." The Pope interrupted him, "Besides, your church has done nothing wrong."
"Yes……"
"Your statement convinced me that the province of Sara is wise and rational, but it is not enough for the Holy See." The Pope leaned forward slightly, "Some provinces are not as far-sighted as you, and you have buried hidden dangers for yourself. — as you said earlier — and may drag the Holy See down the mud.”
Dai Bowen's heart skipped a beat: "You mean..."
"You said you saw the missionary scene of the 'God's Favored', Dorin." The Pope looked at him, "Now, we need a little favor from you."
Is the pope asking for help?
not.It might not even be a plea from the Holy See or the Pope, but an Overlord, using his role to force others to be his blade and shield.
Dai Bowen was sitting in an auditorium.On the left is his knight Locke, and on the right is Mills, the quasi-bishop of Winner.This is a regular Sunday of the church, but the preacher is not the original resident priest of the church, but the quasi-bishop who came from afar——"The Favored One" Wayne.
This is the arrangement of the Holy See, but not every prospective bishop has this experience.As a "God's Favored", Wayne arranged for him to give lectures for too many reasons.Wayne may not be foolishly willing to take the bait, but why not follow the arrangement of the Holy See?
The auditorium was full, and a young man with blond hair and blue eyes came out from the side door, and the worship service began soon.
The front is still the routine hymns and lectures.It has to be said that this young quasi-bishop has a holy and gentle face, clear voice, and graceful and elegant gestures.The white robe is lined with golden light, it is indeed easy for people to listen to the music and feel refreshed.
But this is a feature that many priests have more or less, let alone bishops and above.Especially today's Pope Sarnlich, his handsome face is still prominent in the high-level Holy See, and his expression, tone and behavior can reach a perfect and appropriate level, so that believers often say that they will think of him when they see him. The mind is healed.Many believers even come here for the pilgrimage just to see him.
In contrast, Father Wayne's aura is far from enough.
But what does that matter?If Wayne is also a "host", then his mission is likely to be similar to that of Dai Bowen - only he must become a bishop.
Dai Bowen successfully became the quasi-bishop because of his coincidence with the preferences of the province of Sara; Father Wayne was able to get to where he is today because of his well-known "God's providence" throughout the country.
Now, people in the Holy Land are actually watching these "miracles" for the first time.
An elderly woman stood face to face with Father Wayne.The woman, who had a hunchback visible to the naked eye, was invited to the podium after being asked about her physical condition and wishes.
Hundreds of pairs of eyes looked at her and Father Wayne, including Dai Bowen and his little friend.
"As you said, you have severe pain in your back, which makes you unable to straighten your body." Father Wayne said as he walked around behind the woman slowly, "This is a kind of pain that has troubled you for many years. Chronic disease, isn't it?"
The woman nodded yes.
"I may not be able to cure this disease, but it should relieve your pain a little bit." Father Wayne said, "Please keep your posture still."
He stretched out his right hand, but he didn't touch the woman. He just faced the woman's back with his palm facing the woman's back, and stopped in the air between the punches: "If you have any feelings, please tell the truth, madam."
The woman nodded, and the scene fell silent.
People are looking back and forth with wide-eyed eyes lest they miss any important details, but all they can feel is blankness.Dai Bowen's observation range was larger than theirs. He was looking for any settings that might affect the woman's feelings, and at the same time recalled all the words and actions that Father Wayne said after he entered the scene.
But he didn't think about it for long, and after a few seconds, the woman suddenly said: "I feel... a kind of warmth.
"The pain seems to be relieved."
Father Wayne still maintained his previous posture. He seemed to be concentrating on the palm of his hand, with a serious and solemn expression.No one could see what imperceptible force emanated from his palm. Even if the woman mentioned "warmth" and "relaxation", it was difficult for people to understand what was going on.
Soon, the woman gave them an answer.
Because her back is slowly and visibly straightening up!
She wasn't completely upright, but she did make a big visual shift.According to her original words, it was only after the pain was really relieved that she was able to slightly straighten her bent back.
No noise can be made in the auditorium, but the rustling discussions can be heard endlessly.
Dai Bowen narrowed his eyes.
Locke leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Is this Thor..."
Dai Bowen glanced at him sideways, but did not answer.
As if to prove Locke's doubts, Father Wayne took out a golden ball after finishing the woman's treatment.
"Whoever got the golden ball, please come to me. If you don't want to, or if you don't have something to heal, please pass it to anyone who needs it." Father Wayne turned his back and threw it back. small ball.
This time it was a patient with rheumatism.
Father Wayne also had a "treatment".However, because the weather has been fine recently, the patient's symptoms are not very serious, so other than the warmth, no one can see the changes.
The next two were a bad cold and swollen gums. After "treatment", they seemed to have changed more or less.But this is all their performance. Even if Father Wayne has increased the "randomness", he still cannot get rid of the suspicion of "trust".
This is Father Wayne's disadvantage.The reason why Knight Locke believed in Father Wright's "miracle" at the beginning was because in the school and other local churches, the believers are self-contained.They are familiar with the situation with each other, and they hugged into a group, so it is difficult for them to "entrust".Today's people may come from all over the country, do not know each other, and may even come to this auditorium for the first time.In this case, it is not uncommon for someone who is an "experience representative" to be suspected of being "Tuo".
However, the situation changed abruptly in the last case.
A believer whose right eye is swollen and difficult to open stands opposite Father Wayne.It is said that this is caused by being contaminated with insect venom, because it takes time to prepare the special treatment ointment, so at present, it can only be left to swell and apply cold compresses from time to time.
Father Wayne pointed his palm towards the wound "as usual", quiet and focused.
This time, too, the results came quickly.This result may not be surprising if the statements of the previous patients are connected in series.But different from the previous situation, this is a trauma visible to the naked eye, and its effect can almost shatter all doubts.
And Dai Bowen, as early as when Father Wayne was willing to challenge the treatment of "trauma", he redefined this person.
Locke approached and said, "He... the swelling has really subsided!"
The swelling of the believer's right eye lessened and the right eye opened, which shocked Locke. Fortunately, he remembered not to make loud noises.He had been deceived by Father Wright's methods before, so he thought that Father Wayne was lying before Dai Bowen spoke, but now he was slapped in the face again.
That's right... Dai Bowen squinted his eyes, and turned his eyes away from the believers who successfully opened their right eyes, and turned to Father Wayne.
This guy, maybe he is a "heretic" who can really "magic"!
"There is no doubt that the 'favored of the gods' are more likely to attract people's attention. When they perform miracles, people are more likely to believe their words. But this attention is not necessarily a good thing, because the 'favored of the gods' are priests , the church was forced to be bound to them, and everyone was prosperous, and everyone was lost.
