GULLIVER BECAME A YOUNG BOY
ANNOTATION
This time, the legendary traveler Gulliver turned out to be a young slave, turning into a boy who stamps his bare feet on sharp stones. And then he became a cabin boy on a pirate ship.
. CHAPTER #1
The transition was quite long. The road is rocky and the hot rocks are tropical climate. And the sun was just about to set.
The boy Gulliver walked along with the mistress girl. She spanked with her bare feet much more confidently than her counterpart, who had become so young, looked about twelve years old.
The boy Gulliver muttered:
- I'm tired and thirsty!
The girl replied with a laugh:
- You are a slave! And slaves cannot ask something from their masters!
The boy sighed. Until recently, he was an adult and a captain, but now he turned out to be just a barefooted shket, who is urged on as they want!
But then came the halt. The convoy decided to rest and have a bite to eat. The captive boys, who were adults, stopped a few hours ago.
And they were allowed to drink some water and eat a tortilla with cheese and garlic.
Local food seemed delicious to Gulliver. In addition, he appreciated that now he has young, healthy, absolutely whole teeth. Then he got excited.
Only the bare soles of the feet were very much knocked down and scratched on the pebbles.
Then they were on their way again.
There were some long days here, or did it just seem so?
The girl asked Gulliver:
- So you believe in your God, but you could, for example, go to the stake for faith!
The young traveler replied:
- I am against extremes and fanaticism!
The girl agreed
- This is right! But there were those among you who went to their deaths!
Gulliver replied with a smile:
- They were different! Who went to a painful death, and who betrayed! And not only at gunpoint, but for self-interest!
The girl smiled. Her bare feet slapped the coarse gravel, and apparently she even liked that.
She sang:
The love of Christ is beautiful and pure,
She is a solid, bright beauty ...
At the same time, there is a lot of evil in our world,
Probably still a strong Satan!
The boy Gulliver was surprised:
Where does this psalm come from?
The girl answered with a smile:
- I wrote it myself! What's good?
Gulliver replied with a smile:
- To be honest, not bad! But do you believe in Christ?
The young viscountess logically remarked:
- In what sense?
The boy-captain grunted:
- Nu, that he God!?
The girl shrugged her shoulders and replied:
- That he is the Almighty God and the creator of the universe no. But the fact that he, perhaps, had some kind of magical abilities - quite!
Gulliver elaborated:
Why don't you believe in His Divine nature?
The girl confidently answered:
- Because stupidly agree to the Almighty to go to the cross! Very stupid, having the power to not be able to protect yourself!
The boy captain replied:
- He did it to take all our sins upon himself!
The young viscountess giggled and replied:
- It is not very hard to believe that the Almighty God had no other way to save mankind than to go to the cross Himself. But what about the infinite wisdom of the creator?!
Gulliver shrugged his shoulders and replied:
- Well ... There are secrets that even angels want to penetrate! And in general, it can really be otherwise and it is impossible!
The girl nodded.
- Here I will order you to embed with sticks on your bare heels, and then it will be possible!
There was a painful silence. Gulliver didn't know what to add. Indeed, theologians have been arguing for centuries. And it's really a paradox: having added another, very big crime, people got a chance for salvation. There is still a lot to argue about. And about whether the Son did not bring a ransom with his sacrifice. Only to whom? To the Father - this is strange, would the Father take such a ransom as the death of the Son. But it also sounds blasphemous to Satan.
And so it gets bad and so bad.
Gulliver sang with a sigh:
How many people have so many opinions
The secret of sacred heaven
I want everyone to know...
In search of truth, the darkness of branches,
The demon rages in rage,
Wants to impose a plan,
It's a dream to receive the light of love of generations,
Only the Almighty God can give the answer!
The young viscountess nodded.
- I see you well, eat!
Gulliver noted:
- Yes, it's even nice to walk half-naked, under the hot sun, with such a beautiful girl like you!
And again the boy gasped, stepping on a sharp stone. And he looked unhappy.
The Viscountess remarked:
- Of course, faith must be based on reasonable arguments! For example, Jesus claims to be the Most High God. However, he teaches: if they hit you on your right cheek, turn your left! And in the Old Testament, on the contrary, he gives orders to exterminate both women and children, and even domestic animals!
Gulliver replied:
- You seem to know the Bible well!
The Viscountess nodded.
- Yes, I read it. And there is a lot of cruelty and absurdity! Like a command to marry harlots, or an order to kill the innocent. And Elisha set the bears on the children, who only teased him for his baldness!
The boy Gulliver remarked:
- And people sometimes do this, creating cruelty!
The girl confirmed:
- Yes, they do! But it doesn't do them any credit!
The boy captain remarked:
- Unfortunately, sometimes it happens that you have to use cruelty. Well, if there is no other way of education! And in general, what confuses you?
The Viscountess remarked:
- On the one hand, the extreme cruelty of the Old Testament, and at the same time the gentleness of Jesus Christ, who prayed even crucified, for his executioners!
Gulliver spread his hands and answered:
- I don't know! While it is difficult to say why and what ... We must collect our thoughts. But anyway. Here the question is, but life does not end with the Earth. And maybe, having killed the child with the help of the bear Elisha, he delivered him from eternal suffering in fiery hell, immediately transferring him to paradise?
The Viscountess giggled and remarked:
- So any murderer can say - I did not let him sin! And moved to paradise!
The boy Gulliver wanted to object, but somehow thoughts did not enter his head. And what is there to talk about? Here you need to be an experienced theologian. Even theologians and theologians are not able to give a satisfactory answer to all questions. For example, why does evil exist in the presence of an Almighty and loving God? Does God want evil to exist or is he unable to end it?
And here it is very difficult to answer specifically. Or so it turns out, or otherwise. But there is a paradox that any answer will not suit everyone.
The boy captain said with a sad smile:
- Here you, for example, live a thousand years without aging. So rejoice in it. Because God has given you grace and eternal youth. But he did not give it to ordinary people. And that is his business!
The Viscountess nodded.
- Amen! This is cool!
Gulliver sang:
God is the greatest mercy of the bottomless,
You created the earth, the height of the heavens...
For the sake of the people, Your only begotten Son,
He went to the cross, and then rose again!
The girl nodded and chirped:
At the heavenly roll call
All my friends will gather
At the heavenly roll call
There, by the grace of the Lord,
I will!
Gulliver winked at her and sang in response:
My God, it's You, it's You
I see you everywhere...
When I tear flowers in passing,
And with love I worship You!
Jehovah is the crown of beauty,
In the light of day and midnight radiance ...
These are my thoughts and dreams
This youth is a bright desire!
The girl nodded with a beaming smile.
- Yes, you have a good song, however, I want you to sing more!
Gulliver sang with a smile:
How beautiful is all that is Yours,
I hear your voice everywhere...
In the heart of God's right hand sings,
And whispers into the soul like a ripening colossus!
These are mountains covered with moss,
These are waves with raging foam ...
It's a hot sand beach
This is the sun from the endless universe!
Then the girl angrily stamped her bare foot and interrupted Gulliver, asking:
- And the ugly old women, the creation of the Lord God, which are also beautiful?
Gulliver shrugged his shoulders and remarked:
- If there are inhabitants of other worlds and planets, and they are not like us, then they, too, probably, may think that we are a freak. Moreover, even in relation to the most beautiful girls!
The Viscountess agreed:
- From the point of view of dialectics - it sounds logical!
Gulliver sang with a smile:
Enlightened the Lord Almighty,
Finding Peace in Christ...
I felt that I am a sinner,
That the Lord is my savior!
The girl nodded and sang, baring her teeth:
On a heavenly throne
The Almighty King was seated...
By your great will
Christ ruled us!
They crucified God on the cross
Jesus prayed to the Father...
To not judge us harshly,
Sin has forgiven us to the end!
Mercy is limitless
He sent his Son to die...
To serve him God personally,
And dare not die!
And the girls winked at their counterpart.
Gulliver noted:
- Yes, it's lovely. Poems, let's just say - it's great! But do you recognize Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior?
The girl giggled and sang:
Jesus perfection,
Jesus perfect...
From smile to gesture
Above all praise...
Oh what a blessing
Oh what a blessing
Know that God is perfection!
Know that God is ideal!
Gulliver confirmed:
- You sang it well, and expressively! I see great potential in you.
The girl sang with delight:
In the vastness of the wonderful homeland,
Tempered in battle and labor...
We composed a joyful song
About the Almighty God and the leader ...
God Light is the glory of battle,
God Light of our youth flight...
Fighting and winning with songs,
Our people follow the Lord!
Gulliver replied with a smile:
- Great you sing! Just super!
The girl giggled and remarked:
The song helps us to build and live,
We boldly rush on a hike with a song ...
And the one who walks through life with a song,
He will never, ever disappear!
The children walked along the rocky road. It was painful for the boy's knocked down feet, but he endured and walked. And the conversation distracted from suffering.
In addition, the fact that you have all your own and young teeth is already uplifting. And the young body is hardy and healthy. And everything around is such a bright, radiant, fresh perception of the world.
The Viscountess asked:
- And why, for example, if Christ is God and he has all the power on Earth and in heaven, the most successful ruler and conqueror of all times and peoples is Genghis Khan? Who is both a barbarian and a pagan, and very cruel, and a polygamist!?
Gulliver, with a bewildered childish smile, replied:
- Well, this is a difficult question... To be honest, the Bible says Satan is the God of this age, and perhaps Genghis Khan owes his success to the Devil!
The girl replied:
- Oh no! Nothing is written in the Bible - Satan is the god of this age! I have an eternally young memory, and much better than you people, who grow old and ugly!
The boy captain remarked:
- It is written - the god of this age has blinded their minds!
The Viscountess laughed and replied:
- It does not say that it is Satan! Perhaps it means human egoism. Or maybe, for example, excessive pride, or other character flaws.
Gulliver noted:
- This is partly true! Perhaps it meant both!
The girl sang, baring her teeth:
What did the Lord mean?
Gulliver answered in confusion:
- What are you talking about?
The Viscountess smiled and replied:
- Yes, about different things! I even have a song about it!
The boy captain shrugged his shoulders and suggested:
- Come on, I'll sing first!
The girl nodded with a smile.
- If you want, sing
Just don't sing to rest!
Gulliver sang in his clear, childlike voice;
A man in disbelief is unhappy
It is impossible to live in sinful lust...
Because God's wrath is terrible
Because strict God is the judge!
The flesh in hell languishes from the heat,
And it's time for us all to understand for a long time ...
Those who do not know faith in the Lord
Fall under the yoke of hell!
A sinful man will get his
It will be like a spider on fire...
Demons will torment in the underworld,
Those who worshiped Satan!
Fear and repent enemy of the Lord -
You will be cast straight to hell...
Who does not honor the Sabbath day -
Will forever be in flames!
You honored the idol and for this in agony,
It hurts so much to writhe in hell..
Will be wicked, science -
I preferred the idol to Christ!
Didn't believe God's order
I did not want to honor the first day ...
Do not hope, you will not burn immediately -
Eternity in the torments of a sinner is destiny!
I believe that the time of revenge will come,
Jesus the Great God is coming
And the doomsday will come
He will bring salvation to people!
The Holy God will raise the dead,
Those who in faith will not be stung by decay ...
I believe I will be with the Almighty too,
In heaven - let the flesh collapse!
The girl with a smile that glowed like pearls confirmed:
- A very good song! But you won't be full of songs alone! Need something more cool and unique!
