One thought of hell, one thought of heaven

The video touched me in two ways:

First, through this film, I understand why Saul (Paul) persecuted Christians in the early stage, because he believed that God’s law was the content of the Old Testament written in the Pentateuch of Moses. When Christ came, the Lord made the new covenant. At that time, there were many changes and new methods of interpreting the Bible, which made him feel that this was malicious and deliberate blasphemy and difficult to accept, but that was the truth. It is also a terrible thing for people to show their enthusiasm to serve God, because once they believe in their logical beliefs, they can sometimes become as scary as the devil.

What Luke said to the people who were going to enter the arena the next day and were preyed by lions gave me peace of mind, "Just for a while, then for a while, and then you can be with God forever. Don’t be afraid. "Then the next day, people calmly entered the cruel reality of the competitive scene. People were peaceful. This is the role of God in people's hearts. When I was listening to a psychology class before, I said that a good counselor can also make people safe. I also cited an example. If a person is in a very dangerous environment, he hangs on a cliff on a cliff. There was a mouse biting this teng on the top, and a crocodile on the bottom was waiting for him to fall and eat him. At this moment, this person could see a bright red strawberry next to him. The color was beautiful. He took it off and ate it. The taste is extremely good. I think this is also a situation where God is with him. The inner peace of a person is really more important than anything else. One thought of hell, one thought of heaven.

Paul, Apostle of Christ quotes

  • Mauritius Gallas: If it were the only truth everyone would believe it.

    Luke: Not so. Christ, who is truth, rose from the dead, many do not believe.

    Mauritius Gallas: Lies, fabrications...

    Paul: If Christ had not risen from the dead, then our preaching is useless, and so is our faith.

    Mauritius Gallas: Oh, you have no doubts at all?

    Paul: Men do not die for things they doubt.

  • Paul: Imagine yourself looking out at the vast sea before you. You reach down and put a hand into the water and you scoop it up towards you. Immediately the water starts leaking through your fingers until the hand is empty. That water is a man's life. From birth to death it is always slipping through our hands until it is gone, along with all that you hold dear in this world. And yet the Kingdom I speak of - that I live for - is like the rest of the water out in the sea. Man lives for that cup of water that slips through his fingers. Those that follow Jesus Christ live for that endless expanse of sea.

    Mauritius Gallas: What if, after all this, I still do not believe in your Christ?

    Paul: I wasn't trying to convince you.

    [laughs]

    Paul: Listen to me. There is only a moment. It is not me. It is Christ himself that looks upon you and shatters your defenses and in that moment you will understand that you are completely known by God... and you are completely loved. I will pray that moment comes for you.
