crown of thorns

Send forth your light and your truth, that you may guide me, and bring me to your holy mountain, to your dwelling place.

………………………………………………——The Bible·Old Testament·Psalms

I searched the heavens, but I did not see Lucifer, so I prayed to those gift books, that my eyes might see Lucifer.Suddenly, my eyes were opened, and I could see what I had never seen.I was never able to track his whereabouts before, and now I see.Because I already know the source of this book, and because my wisdom today is very different from that of 200 years ago. I know that my wisdom has greatly increased, and I have received the blessing and inspiration of the Lord.

He once gave me an apocalypse, saying: Release, imprison, and start again and again from my hand, I will be like a shepherd in the wilderness, lifting the snake over my head, and using the snake as an olive crown.

Snakes are the most sensitive species among living beings. When He said that the snake is my crown, he was referring to my wisdom.I am gradually enlightened to the oracles that I could not know before.

Now I see Lucifer in a deep mountain in Hori, which is close to Lake Yas, and there is a lot of wasteland to the south, because there were no people living here at that time. [Note: After Noah, the area south of Holi was the residence of the Assyrians, in the northeast of today’s Iraq.Yas Lake (LakeYars) is the old name of the Assyrians, today it is called Fan Lake, and the old translation is Pan Lake.Turkish for VanGolu. 】

Where is he doing?I feel strange in my heart.I went down to him.

Although I'm in the lower realm, I can't get close to the realm on the ground. In front of the mountain where Lucifer is, there are two giant dragons blocking the way. These two giant dragons are one black and one white. One breathes fire and the other spits ice. I thought dragons were the most evil creatures, and I couldn't destroy them with my own strength, so I felt embarrassed. [Note: In the tradition of the Hebrews, the dragon is an evil creature, which is different from the image of the Chinese dragon. 】

"Angel, what are you doing here?" the black dragon said suddenly.

When I heard the words of this evil creature, I felt awkward in describing it, and turned my head unwilling to answer what it said.Seeing that I loathed it so much, the black dragon spit fire into the air, and said contemptuously, "You're a fool."

I was annoyed when I heard this, so I said, "I'm here to see Lucifer."

"Your Highness Lucifer doesn't see fools." The white dragon raised its claws, as if to grab me.But because my wings are the wings of Selah given by God, its claws cannot be grasped.

"There is the sigh of the Lord on your wings." Bailong said in surprise.

"How did you know this?" It was me who was even more surprised, because I thought dragons were unreasonable evils.

"My lord Lucifer once told me that the hardest thing in this world is neither Michael's sword nor Gabriel's awl, but the sigh of God." Bailong said. [Note: When the ancient Hebrews communicated with each other to show respect, they would also call each other "my lord", which means "my lord", not specifically referring to God. 】

"Is Lucifer your master?" This is really a strange thing, Lucifer is such a holy existence, why does he raise a dragon?

"Exactly. Angel, this is not the place for you to come." The black dragon said lazily, "My lord once said that the angels who come here must have a scroll that allows them to enter, otherwise they are not allowed to visit him."

"What is this access scroll?"

"How can I tell you this, angel, go back!" The black dragon waved its claws, trying to drive me away.I was about to be chased away, when suddenly bright lights scattered in the sky, it must be Lucifer coming.He rolled up his sleeves, wearing a pair of glasses, looking gentle.In hand is holding a brush.

When the two dragons saw Lucifer, they knelt down.

"Raziel... what are you doing here?"

"Lucifer!" My voice trembled, "I have a lot to say to you."

"I have finished what I have to say." Lucifer's face was slightly sentimental, and now his sentimentality was written on his face, even ordinary people could see it.After that, Lucifer turned around to leave.

"Send me so many books, why didn't you tell me?" I called out to him.

"Because of you...because you like it."

"Why won't you tell me?"

Lucifer turned around and adjusted his glasses frame: "I don't want to cause you trouble. You don't belong to me, and I can't be with you, so I don't think it's necessary for you to know this. You know, but you Troubled."

"I want to join the letter club. So many books have been sent to me, why don't you let me join?"

"No. That's dangerous."

"Danger?"

Lucifer sighed and beckoned me to go into the mountains.It turns out that this is a private realm under Lucifer's realm, and it is located in Heli's deep mountain crypt. I am afraid that this is the place where the Epistle Society's secret 丨 meeting 丨 is held here.The size of the crypt is beyond imagination, with criss-crossing corridors and many rooms, including a large circular meeting place, where I guess the members of the letter club sit around and discuss with each other.Lucifer led me to one of the rooms, where I saw many scattered books, molds for printing books, various printing tools, half-printed books, pamphlets and papers of various colors, everywhere.The brush in His hand was probably used for inking.

"Books printed using this traditional model are not easily detected by God."

"What exactly are you trying to do with this?"

"Find a place to sit down first, sorry, it's too messy here." Lucifer moved two wooden chairs.I sit opposite him.He frowned and sighed thoughtfully.I saw him think for a while, then suddenly stood up and said, "Some things, it's better if you don't know. You'd better go."

"Why don't you let me know, what are you afraid of?" I felt strange, I just sat down, why did you want to drive me away again?

"Raziel, if you want to be with Michael forever, don't ask any more questions. I have a few new books printed here. You can read them. From now on, just pretend that you have never been here. My words are That's right."

"Where I can find it with my eyes, can the Lord not find it?" I thought this place was not difficult to find, and there was no need to keep it secret.

"What? Didn't you come here after hearing from Petrie?"

"No, I prayed for the book you sent me, and my eyes were opened, and I saw you here. So I came to you."

"Raziel, do you know that the Lord doesn't even know about this place." Lucifer's expression was serious, as if he was lying.However, these words were unbearable for me. I looked stiff and smiled awkwardly and said, "How is it possible? How can I compare with God."

"It's not like this. I have given a revelation to this place. No one can know about it except the members of the Epistle Society. If you say it, you will never be heard by the Lord. Raziel, your wisdom has become more and more extraordinary. This ..." Lucifer suddenly panicked and didn't know why, it was the first time I saw him like this.He was walking back and forth, restless.

"What happened?"

"Raziel, you can't learn any more. If your knowledge is too much, you will suffer."

"Can knowledge be exaggerated?"

"I'm telling the truth!" Lucifer yelled out, I was startled, and looked at him blankly, "I'm very worried, very worried about you, if the Lord knows about it."

Looking at his expression, I suddenly guessed a little bit about all this, and I said quietly: "Lucifer, can I have the same perception as the Lord?"

He stood still suddenly, looked at me for a while, and then said, "Is this from your heart?"

"Yes, I don't think there is any superior wisdom. The most intelligent person in the world is Jehovah. However, I think that even humans can surpass angels in some ways. The book you sent me is not Is it all from the world? How could angels write such a book? I wondered if the wisdom of angels could be equal to or even surpassed Jehovah in some places? Perhaps in general, Yahweh must be omniscient, but knowledge in a certain aspect may not be able to see through it?"

Lucifer bowed his head and said, "Do you know what these words you said mean?"

"I know, but if it's you, you must understand me. That's what I think."

Lucifer smiled, and I saw that his smile was filled with relief and bitterness: "Rachel, Rachel, how can I not love you? How can I not love you?"

"Your Highness Lucifer, my heart belongs to Michael."

"I know. But love comes from my heart. I love you and have nothing to do with you."

"That's true." I thought about it, and the words were very profound.

"Then, since you are willing to be with Michael, you should know that the Lord does not allow angels to be smarter than him, even in a certain aspect, or even in one issue."

"Why? Isn't the Lord a God of forgiveness?"

"No, maybe it was before, but not now." Lucifer's hand began to tremble, and suddenly, the brush in his hand was crushed to pieces.

"what on earth is it?"

"If you listen to what I say next, maybe you and Michael will be separated forever, but what I say below must be the truth. Are you willing to listen to the truth, or stay in the illusion and continue your love?"

These words hit my heart, and scenes from 200 years ago flashed through my mind. I didn't know how to answer for a moment. Almost before. I already knew that Michael and I didn't really like each other in the first place."

"It's not this problem. This problem is just a trivial matter. If you know the following, there must be only two paths for you to choose in the future: one is to die, and the other is to say goodbye to Michael forever. Have you made up your mind? If you don't Well, I won’t say anything, and I don’t want to see you suffer anymore.”

Why are these two consequences that I cannot afford.

"The truth in the world is mostly tragic. It is not what you want to see. It is because you don't want to see it that it is called the truth. My sorrow for many years cannot be cured, because I don't know where the road is going. Let's go. My hands are stained with many sins, but I am still called holy by the angels." Lucifer slumped on the chair after speaking.

"Your hands are stained with sin? This..." I really can't think of what sin Lucifer will commit. "I think I need some time to think about the problem you just mentioned."

"It doesn't matter, perhaps, happiness is more important than its truth. Sometimes I also think, is it necessary to pursue the true truth? If that truth will only bring you endless pain, then why don't I leave this truth?"

But is it really good to live in illusory happiness?I was apprehensive, and it was difficult to make a decision.

"It's okay if you can't make up your mind..."

He took a deep breath and said, but I saw that his mood was very unstable, and suddenly he stood up again and said to me: "No, I can't let you take any more risks." Lucifer pressed my head with an extremely sad face and said , "Raziel, you will forget what you saw today, and now you should return to heaven."

I suddenly shook off His hand and said, "Lucifer! Don't hint at me! I hate it."

I resisted him with my own strength, which was far beyond his imagination: "Since the beginning, no one can resist my suggestion."

"There are many things you haven't experienced before." I smiled at him, "I'm leaving first, I have to think about what you said."

It should indeed be considered carefully. In any case, this is a major event related to the future.I want to discuss it with Michael before making a decision.
