I have always been interested in this kind of "Faust" plot, and this film reminded me of "Conversation with the Devil" and some of the words I excerpted, so I copied the two journals at that time without thinking. Or can be used as a small reference for this film:
1. The devil was created almost at the same time as God created the world. God is faith, hope, love... and the devil is evil, evil, and evil. However, the relationship between the goodness of God and the evil of the devil should be dialectical and unity of opposites. Without one, the existence of the other cannot be imagined. (Foreword to the book, translator's language)
2. The devil thirsts for evil, wants to continue his work of destruction, and is unwilling to change his place in the world order, that is, God treats the devil as his own negative element and gives him negation position of order. The devil lives by the negation of all, and at the same time by all that he opposes, which is to say that this order, in its being, is determined at the same time by its own negative force. The two forms of being that form the world need to be balanced. Demons follow God's command and operate in a certain way against God's intentions. It places its own existence on a certain scale, gives the scale a state of balance in relation to the other side, and at the same time pursues the destruction of this balance.
3. God also contradicts his creative nature itself (Genesis) and his inherently negative nature (authorization of the devil to destroy). God saves people, but not the devil. Considering God's nature, he should be eager to save the devil. Precisely because the fall of the angels is not a fact, not an accident, but a manifestation of the necessary structure of the world, rooted in the very nature of being. Is it therefore fair to conclude that the basic structure of existence is not the result of God's free determination, but that he himself is involved in rules independent of his will. (The above is "Conversation with the Devil" P78~83)
4. Catholicism teaches that the world that surrounds us is temporary and that the Son of God cancels the laws of the world by submitting to them. The prince of this world has won, and he has lost because of it. When we do Mass, we are once again denying this meaningless and unkind world. What we are entering is a state of goodness, love, and forgiveness. Going to Mass should have a firm belief, a sense that what we do in life is what religion demands of us, but all who are keen to go to church are worthy of "hypocrites" and "laws". The name of the Lise". In fact, firm belief is a rare gift, and the act of worship reminds us that we are all sinners. So, going to church is not about being God's chosen people. (The Milosz Dictionary P78-79)
5. In that famous case, "Whoever is without sin among you may first stone her", the woman who committed adultery was brought by the Pharisees. When Jesus came to Jesus, Jesus thought that the Pharisees were hypocrites who only valued the appearance and ignored the heart. How to be true to the doctrine? Exhausting the mystery, you need to clear the layers of fog of various circulating versions. In these fogs that are interpenetrated and mixed due to the different water content of the clouds, you may have lost your way; Murder is precisely to attribute yourself to the Pharisees whom Jesus despised; you decide to exercise tolerance, and as the LORD has persuaded, he will put in your ear: "Whoever sheds blood, his blood shall be The flow of people." Is it revenge or warning?
6. Ingmar Bergman's "Winter Light," an excellent film of doubting about God, uses light and shade to portray God's power in the heart of his faithful servant (a priest): God is Love the world? So with his faithfulness to God, God will let him lose his beloved wife? Why did someone (the fisherman) choose to commit suicide?
7 The fisherman who came to the pastor for help said: When Jesus was crucified and hung there to suffer, he cried out, "God, God, why have you forsaken me?" How loud he cried. He thought his holy father had abandoned him, he felt that all he preached was a lie, and he doubted it until he died. Isn't this his greatest pain? God's silence!
8. Is prayer a request? Is the love dedicated to God just so that God can one day favor him? Did God test who the Pharisees were from the beginning? Or there is no Pharisee at all, who strikes two safety locks that human beings can never get past heaven, confused language and selfish love.
