351, Caesar's to Caesar
This is a very sinister difficulty, and the elder's question contains the trap of framed Joseph.
Joseph preached in the square surrounded by people that if he answered that he should not pay taxes to the Maro people, he would not only violate the laws of the Maro Empire, but also commit the crime of inciting people's riots, and would immediately be taken away by the Maro soldiers on duty.
But if John answers "should" he will lose the hearts of the people. The Messiah that people are looking forward to is the savior of all the saviors and the saviors. People believe that the savior king will lead them to establish a new kingdom, conquer the Maro Empire, and rule the Tianshu continent. Moreover, there is a more important premise in the elder's words. Everyone buys birds and releases them to sacrifice to the Aro River, but they have to pay taxes to the Maro people. How can this be explained?
John knew the elder's trick very well, but he just sneered slightly. He reached out to take a coin from his disciples, raised the coin and asked everyone, "Whose avatar is it on this coin?"
Everyone replied: "It's Kaise!" Yike and Augustus were not only the names of the two Maro rulers who were intimidating the continent back then, but later became the title and title of Maro emperors of all dynasties.
Joseph said loudly, "Then let the Kai retreat return to Kai retreat! God does not need it! Have you ever heard of the privilege of using coins to buy into the kingdom of heaven? It can only buy a place from the priests in the temple square, set up a place to sell birds, and youhuo people buy birds and let them fly. It is said that they are offering sacrifices to the Aro River, but they harm creatures in the name of God, and God will also be angry."
He said this with a blink of an eye, and the coin flew out with a sound and landed at the elder's feet.
He wisely got rid of the elder's entanglement, but did not expose the traps in the elder's question. As long as the Maro Empire was still the ruler of the Tianshu Continent, the coins used here still had a picture of Kaishi, and the merchants naturally had to pay taxes to the Maro Empire.
Jesus told people what is the real world and the ideal world, what is the world you see, and what is the kingdom of heaven guided by God? The Maro people conquered the Tianshu continent, but also provided roads and water conservancy projects. To stop the conflicts between the original tribes, not only did the Leng merchants need to pay taxes, but all the places in the Tianshu continent under the rule of the Maro Empire also included the Maro people themselves.
But what about the kingdom of heaven in the Arro River? What God needs is not these, but the true belief in the spirit, through various tests, to reach the kingdom of heaven that transcends eternal life. It is another world, a kingdom that is completely different from the world.
The people were still listening to the preaching of Joseph with admiration. The elder was bored and stood there very embarrassedly.
He ran to say that he had any questions and wanted to "ask" Joseph, and he used a tone of asking questions. And Joseph openly "teached" him in front of everyone, and this honorable elder has now become one of the listeners who cannot show his due dignity in front of Jesus.
This was simply embarrassing to take the initiative to run out and use his noble identity to support Joshua! The elder used another move with his heart. He held the staff with his five fingers tightened and quietly activated the magic of cursing. He was worthy of being a great magician, and he did not leave any traces of casting spells among thousands of people. He wanted to make Joshua feel heavy, his knees were weak, his head and shoulders leaned forward, and inexplicably knelt down and bowed to him in public.
The mysterious magic unfolded, but it was like a muddy bull entering the sea without any response. Joshua still stood there and preached to everyone, without even the tone of his speech being distorted.
When it comes to divine techniques, Joseph was much better than the elder. He knew what the elder was doing but ignored it. The best way to deal with the magical art of cursing was the magical art of praying for blessings, and Joseph condensed two tears of the gods in his form and spirit, one was passively refined, and the other was actively integrated into the mark of the spiritual hun. This flesh and blood body is also an excellent magical artifact for the magical art of praying for blessings. Even if he did nothing, the elder's curse could not produce any effect.
The people around him naturally didn't know all this. However, at this moment, something that made everyone stunned and then cheered up happened. The elder suddenly put his staff on the flat side and his knees softened, and his body leaned forward towards Joshua and knelt down towards Joshua. He pressed his hands on the staff to support the ground, put his forehead and mouth on the ground, then straightened his arms and raised his upper body, bent his arms and bowed down again and bowed three times in a row, completely ignoring the dust on his robe and forehead.
The twelve elders in the temple of Aro* in the city of Selang. They have never bowed to living people outside the statue of God. Only the Son can enjoy this kind of courtesy! This behavior of the elders is undoubtedly a convincing recognition of the identity of Joshua, and people are extremely moved.
The elder knelt down, and of course everyone could not stand. In an instant, the crowd of people in the temple square fell to their knees. The disciples also bowed to their guides, and the entire square,
Only Joseph was still standing, and the last one to kneel was the donkey behind him.
No one noticed a detail. While the elder used the magic of curse magic to be useless, the donkey behind Joshua suddenly raised a front hoof and stomped on the ground. The elder then knelt down for no reason, not what he wanted to kneel down, but was pressed down by an irresistible force. The elder struggled to get up, and the donkey stomped again. The elder's arms that had just been straightened could not hold on and bowed down.
The donkey stomped three feet in a row, and the elder bowed three times. At this time, everyone in the square also knelt down. The donkey stopped when he saw it, and took advantage of the opportunity to bend down and bowed his head to the ground to bow, and at the same time lowered his head to touch the ground.
The donkey knelt down, but the elder stood up. Seeing that because of his actions, everyone in the square knelt down to Joshua. The elder was so ashamed and angry that he was so shameless that he had no face to see anyone! His body turned into blue smoke and quickly floated into the temple and disappeared. The elder left a document on the same day and resigned from his position as the elder of the temple and left behind to thank the guests.
Joseph turned around intentionally or unintentionally and glared at the donkey, but said nothing. What can you care about with a donkey on this occasion? He spread his arms towards everyone and said, "Get up!"
When Joshua entered the city of Luelong, he decided not to show any miracles that might interfere with people's beliefs. If he wanted the elder to kneel down, Joshua had some means, and there was no need to let Medanzo, who had become a donkey, get into a hand. What Joshua did not need to kneel down in the form, nor would you be more impossible to force him. What he needed was the true belief in the spirit.
If he could use that method to prove the state he pursued, why would he have to come to the world for such a visit?
The prank Medanzo had done was very effective, and everyone asked Su to kneel down.
But after Joshua left Lengcheng that day, he ordered his disciples to take the donkey back and borrow it for fear that the village would be returned to the master.
〖〗What happened in the square made a temple elder stay away from seeing others behind closed doors. It was a public humiliation, and it was absolutely unacceptable in his identity. But others did not know the inside story, and the elder did not say anything to anyone, so he was absolutely ashamed to speak of this matter! The other eleven also felt a chill and fear in their hearts. If they had just wanted to take down Joseph and ask for sin, now they have unanimously decided that they must execute this person!
During the day, Joseph preached in the temple square, returned to the village in Bethany at night, entered the village of Shireng City seven times, and did not ride the donkey in the last few days. The festival has reached its seventh day, and the celebration is about to end. The people who poured into Shireng City from all directions are packing up and will disperse tomorrow.
On this day, Joshua did not leave Selangor City. He ordered his disciples, "Go to find Vel and Flom, and I ask him to prepare a dinner for us today, in a quiet and undisturbed place, go and wait for me first."
Weir YiFlom is the patient whom Yosu was treated in the wild mountains and forests, and is also the only thankful person among the patients who ran back to Yosu.
The disciples all left, but Joseph left Judah alone. Walking on earth, it was bound to be the worldly affairs of the human world. Of course, Joseph and his disciples also needed money to buy all kinds of things and prepare for the materials needed to travel around the world. Judah was very capable and meticulous, and was responsible for managing money and purchasing various items. He usually spent the most time on his own.
John took Judas through the streets and alleys of the Sheleng City, and there were bustling crowds everywhere. But strangely, no one could recognize Joseph! John preached to the people in the temple square for seven consecutive days. When he stood in the center of the people, everyone knew that he was the Son. But when he was mixed in the crowd, he was still wearing ordinary robes and barefoots, looking no different from everyone. Even if he walked towards him, no one realized that he was Joseph.
The scope of the Leng City is very large, thanks to the scale built by Link back then. There are also some mountains and even fields and woods in the entire outer city. Joseph took Judas away from the inner city and walked to the outer city. He came to a remote place and stopped and turned around and said, "Judah, my disciple, today I want to ask you if you understand why I gave you such a name?"
Judas trembled his shoulders, and his expression seemed to have finally waited for something that had been waiting for for a long time. He bowed and said, "Dear guide, maybe I shouldn't call you the Son, because you are that person!
...I didn't know the reason at the beginning, but not long ago, I finally understood."
John said quietly, "Congratulations on your endless trials. What do you understand?"
Judah replied, "The city of Leng was not withdrawn four hundred years ago, and the flood did not come. This is a place called Duke. A young miner named Améng was lucky to mine a precious tears of the gods. At that time, the city lord of the Capeland city state of Eju was coming to Duke with a candidate saint, hoping to find the tears of the gods.
After the tears of the gods appeared, Lord Dick ordered his Reporter to reward the young man with thirty gold coins, but the Reporter only gave the young man thirty silver coins and took away the tears of the gods in the name of Goddess Isis. Not only was the boy unable to pay the tax on the twenty gold coins owed by his family,
