"If the demons are angels …" Johnny Blaze objected. "They can't even enter the church!"
"Because they have sinned," Chen Ang said. "So they are punished by the Messiah."
"Because they tempt people to fall and sin?" Johnny Blaze asked. "God gave them the duty to judge sinners, but they tempt people to fall?"
"No, no, no. You misunderstood me. First of all … God didn't give them the duty. It's the Messiah. God didn't do anything. He just created, the Creator. And the Messiah is the one who arranged everything. You can also call it fate. It's not the demons' sin to tempt people's souls to fall. In fact … it's their duty. They created demons to divide and punish humans. Entrapment is also law enforcement.
"Their real sin is to kill each other and plunder power because they fear the judgment of the future. The Messiah appointed seven ancient demons, but they harmed each other … This is a challenge to the Messiah's arrangement, so … they are guilty. They betrayed the Messiah's arrangement for them.
"No leader will care if you cross the line a little bit, or should I say, exceed the line in gray areas. Only when the leader wants to deal with you will it be evidence of your crime. However, every leader will care if you challenge the authority of others. That's why they are unlucky. "
"And … if you want evidence, the evidence is in what you just said!" Chen Ang said, staring at him.
Johnny Blaze recalled what he had just said and still did not understand.
Chen Ang had to remind him. "You just said that demons and devils can't enter the church. In fact, based on my experience dealing with the rampant cults in North America, even the devil's kin can't enter the church. Only their worshippers, demon believers who have not been assimilated by their power, can enter. But you can come and go freely in the church."
"This is a very obvious proof that you are partly an angel — even if you are an Angel of Vengeance."
"So … God didn't give up on me!" Johnny Blaze said excitedly. "He didn't give up on my father either. Will his soul go to heaven?"
"Wait a minute … God didn't give up on anyone … No one will give up on their 'property.' I guarantee that you will belong to him from head to toe, from soul to body. But he just doesn't care. You're just small amounts of money. He's not a saver either. He didn't store your souls in heaven. "
"God is a financial manager who likes to invest and to constantly operate his assets."
"Therefore … your souls will generally continue to be invested … into the operation. Continuous investment … savings and whatnot, there is no such thing. This is not in line with the principles of financial management. "
"You just said that the Spirit of Vengeance is an angel!"
"So!" Chen Ang flipped through the little notebook and said, "You belong to Messiah's operations management. It's the capital that temporarily belongs to him. "
"What about the church …" Johnny Blaze still wanted to say something. Whether the soul belonged to God or not was very important to believers. Although Johnny Blaze was not a believer, as a traditional American and Southerner, he still cared about this. This was also why he was so determined to get his father's soul back.
From this, it could be seen that the capital that Messiah helped Chen Ang manage was indeed developing well, and the management level was very high.
For example, Apocalypse Chen himself, his management level was very low. In Messiah's hands, humans were happy to become his property, but in Apocalypse's hands, the property resisted very fiercely.
Of course, there was also the reason why Apocalypse's investments were different. Apocalypse's capital was used for experiments. Small things like capital appreciation had always been handled by managers like Messiah. The Four Horsemen were the functional heads of Apocalypse's company, and the specific matters were handled by them.
In fact, Chen Ang felt that Messiah did a good job. The inferior asset that originally had no experimental value — the monkey — had become a high-quality asset with high experimental value — humans!
The speed of appreciation could be said to be very fast!
Messiah could be said to be very capable!
Chen Ang solemnly taught him, "The church is not managed by God … Let me ask you, who is worshiped in the middle of the church? Who is hanging on the cross? Who established the church? Who is the one who redeems humanity? "
"My Lord Jesus!" Johnny Blaze replied.
"That's right! What temple, what God to worship? A church that worships Jesus, you let God do things … That's not reliable! So … you have to understand your own position. You are controlled by Mephitos and have a symbiotic relationship with angels, but in the end, you are a human managed by Messiah. Ownership belongs to God … but control belongs to Messiah. "
Johnny Blaze was a little confused by Chen Ang's words. He vaguely felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong with the logic, but from the perspective of his understanding and beliefs from the Bible, these words were almost treasonous.
"But God and Jesus are not of this nature!" Johnny Blaze emphasized.
"You are an administrator in the system, it is not suitable for you to question or object!" Chen Ang tapped the table and said, "You are half an angel. An angel is a spirit in service. Even if you are a civil servant of God, as a civil servant, it is not suitable for you to mention matters of faith. How faith is a matter for believers, to put it bluntly, it is a matter for humans. Humans' understanding of Messiah! Is this something an angel like you should mention? "
"Believers can question whether God is benevolent or not, and whether Messiah is bright or not, but what are you, an angel, questioning? When God sends you to test humans, you also have to ask — isn't this in line with the spirit of the Bible? Which side are you going to sit on? Humans will die sooner or later, so you won't end up as a human. Then, when there is a conflict between the identity of an angel and a human, how are you going to recognize your own position? "
Johnny Blaze's mind was a mess, and he felt as if his worldview was shattering. I am a Ghost Rider, a human who signed a contract with a demon, born and raised as a human … How did I become an angel?
For the sake of life and death in heaven …
Shut up! Putting away the random thoughts in his mind, Johnny Blaze said woodenly, "How do you think I should recognize my own position …"
"Of course, your position belongs to whichever side your butt is on. Humans are just a temporary stool for your butt to sit on, and angels are your seat for life … After you die … Messiah will deal with you according to God's position. "
"How should I recognize the decision in my heart?" Johnny Blaze asked. "What's the difference between the positions of an angel and a human?"
"…" Chen Ang picked up his beer and said, "I'll just ask you one thing … God wants Armageddon. Do you support it?"
"I …" Johnny Blaze was speechless.
"Destroy the world … Kill all humans and create another world. According to the Old Testament, there aren't many people in the Book of the Lamb … Of course, that's not the case in reality. But Armageddon is a topic you can never avoid … Are you going to judge humans as an angel on behalf of God, or are you going to be judged as a human … You see, there's a huge conflict between identities! "Chen Ang said.
"For example, the Avenging Angel was ordered to destroy Babylon and the Tower of Babel … This is the job of an angel. A person can have a position, but as an angel, your position must be the same as God's … " "I don't know …" Johnny Blaze hugged his head and said, "I don't know what to do …"
"Are you here to ask me this as an angel?" He looked up and asked, "You shouldn't be asking me this."
"Are you here to ask me this as an angel?" He looked up and questioned, "You shouldn't be asking me this."
I'm God, I can't ask … Chen Ang looked up at the sky speechlessly.
"I'm not an angel … I'm just here to ask you your attitude as an organization that protects humans," Chen Ang said. "Do you know … Mephithos joined an alliance that tried to destroy half of the life in this universe? Their first step was to prepare to destroy humanity."
"And you're the most powerful Ghost Rider controlled by Mephithos."
"So I need to know, as a member of the human race and a soul controlled by Mephithos, what's your stance? Furthermore, as half of you are angels and half of you are humans, what is your stance in the later Judgment Day? God is preparing Armageddon, and humans are going to resist. Do you support it? "
Johnny Blaze said dejectedly, "I can't answer these questions in a short period of time."
"We don't care about your answer … because the answer will always change. I just want you to know … your actual actions will be your final answer. After we step out of this circus, an old man with a silver cane will walk in. He will invite you to save the universe, and the first step will be to destroy us. "
"And when you appear on the battlefield … we will determine our attitude toward you and all the Ghost Riders."
"Think about it carefully!" Chen Ang stood up and said, "You'll eventually come face to face with us, but if your will wants to resist Mephithos, we'll help you get rid of its control. If not … then we're enemies!"
After saying this, Chen Ang turned to meet up with Steve and walked out of the circus.
"What did you say to him?" Steve asked. "I heard a lot of secrets about religion … You actually think that Apocalypse is the real God … He's not!"
"To angels … he is!"
"The Human Revolutionary Alliance isn't afraid of a galactic warlord. Thanos is nothing in front of us, even if he has many allies. What we care about is Apocalypse … So this attitude is the most important. As for the others … Johnny Blaze and the other Ghost Riders won't choose Mephithos. They can even resist that demon for a San Venganza contract. Not to mention for all of humanity. "
"But in Apocalypse, will those angels, including Mephithos, Satan, and Ghost Riders, rebel against their creator? Although demons and devils have their own stance, it's still hard to say. After all, they've never challenged the Messiah head-on, not even the most rebellious demon. "
