The chanting of the Sutra of Mercy is still going on.
When Lavoisier gave an order on the stage, even Bishop Tucqueville was dumbfounded!
Under his dispatching orders, low-level servants and civil servants began to replenish incense charcoal, prepare holy water and adjust the position of lamps; the three deacons returned to the front of the procession of believers and led them gradually into the stage.
Sit tight; the fourth deacon brings the first batch of wine and bread to the consecration place, rings the bell to remind the believers, displays the consecration materials, and then leads the representatives to offer incense; the fifth deacon sings on the stage
When it comes to "Lord have mercy!", guide the Gospel fragments from the "Judgment Book" to the reading table with extreme punctuality, and sprinkle the candles with frankincense essential oil
The mass ceremony, which was originally a bit scattered due to the loss of its backbone, was actually performed to a level only seen in big city dioceses!
"You must add pure water to the blood and fire of the Lord, and you must discern whether the grape juice has a sour taste. This is a serious command, and it is sinful to deliberately disobey it."
"Did I add too much or too little?" The young deacon who was being taught felt uneasy.
"The old law requires adding very little water, but the new law no longer emphasizes very little, and only says to add a little water." Fan Ning's voice was gentle, "This change is to prevent your narrow-minded priests from being anxious about adding water.
If there is a joint ceremony and there is more than one cup for wine, you only need to control the main vessel."
He patted the other party's shoulder sincerely and said: "But this is not a prosperous occasion. You have personally worked on every cup, and the water is 10%, so your contribution must be considerable."
The young deacon bowed repeatedly, while Fan Ning walked away and looked at another place, frowning.
"This brother is biased against the use of holy silver stamps." He stretched out his hand and pointed out several positions on the unleavened bread baked on the hot pebbles.
Originally, the steam inside the cake was gradually accumulating, trying to tear the soft interior and causing the dough to swell. However, the curly-haired and bearded priest followed Fan Ning's instructions and adjusted the position of the poke. Those curved gluten
It was fixed.
As the fiery red Schmalz oil dripped, the unleavened bread gradually erupted into a sun-like color, and the aroma of rich wheat baking also wafted out.
"In the future, when making bread for the Eucharist, you must make the wheat syrup thick and do not mix in any leaven. It is not advisable to soak the egg liquid for ten minutes, and the baking time should be controlled to no more than eight minutes."
"Yes, yes." The bearded acolyte had a look of shame on his face. People from foreign countries who had not even registered religious membership were so proficient, yet he even had to be taught how to bake a cake.
Fan Ning, who re-entered the altar, waved one hand in the air. At this time, the music stopped, and the originally invisible power of the "key" was transformed into a fiery golden color by the "fountain in the painting", turning the people on the altar into a fiery golden color.
The nine-fold cloth was wrapped so high that it rose into the sky, and quickly stretched into a formal shape and fell down.
"Concrete inspiration, high rank, he is a high rank!"
The clergymen were so impressed that even several investigators stood in the corner and were stunned by the direct look.
Not to mention how difficult it is to become a high-ranking person, just talk about the level of Mass that even a layman can see.
Can someone who has not been a priest for more than ten years achieve this effect?
"All flesh is like grass. All its withered glory is like the flower of the grass. The grass will wither and the flower will wither."
As soon as the "Sutra of Compassion" ended, Fan Ning recited a "Sutra of Sutra" before the "Sutra of Glory" that originally followed.
It is the theme of the second movement of Brahms's "Deutsche Requiem" adapted from the chant.
There seemed to be timpani hammering in the air, and a severe and heavy chromatic melody was passed between the various voices in the choir:
"Brothers, be patient until the Lord comes."
"Behold, the farmer patiently waits for the precious sprout in the ground until it receives the spring and autumn rains."
Those lights have faded away from the bright and soft side, and the air is intertwined with sorrow, boredom and eagerness. There is inexplicable energy accumulating in the dark shadow of the church, but with Fan Ning’s spiritual enlightenment, the choir below
A radiant chorus burst out in a moment——
“Only the Lord lives forever!”
"The people who have been redeemed by the Lord will surely return, and they will return to the holy city with shouts of joy. Eternal joy will surely return to their heads, giving them joy and joy. All sorrow and sighing will escape!"
Outside the church, a more holy light seeped in through the cracks. The believers felt that this was different from the immersion in the past without knowing it. In an instant, their thinking became clearer than ever before. Those things were full of metaphors and difficult to distinguish.
At this moment, the clear branches of the scriptures were cut through my head like a stream, and they went straight to the main point.
The mass was still going on, and several lower-ranking clergymen felt that their inspiration was growing rapidly.
Because they are good at enlightenment, the Holy Sun Church has always had the largest number of low-ranking knowledgeable people in the official organization. However, the mass ceremony led by Fan Ning this time directly allowed several ignorant people who have accumulated experience to be inspired by ordinary people.
Three to five times that of a human being reaches the critical line of ten times. You can try to make a breakthrough in the dream control method you have practiced that night!
Although there are also factors of accumulation, just like this, after tonight, I am afraid that there will be 1-3 more knowledgeable people in the diocese!
"Since this Lavoisier has returned to the country this time, once the review process is completed, I will appoint him to sit in the position of priest of the Diocese of Lebici!"
Bishop Toucqueville's initial good impression of Lavoisier was due to the contrast between them and the arrogant and arrogant style of the Special Inspectorate.
The legacy of Lavoisier's ancient priest is very rare and has become very rare in today's industrial age. But Tucqueville also knew that artistic attainments and mysterious strength were the decisive factors.
But now, Tukweil was not only moved, he even felt a little ashamed of himself!
The regular mass music for ordinary days, the ritual program is a fixed sequence of five parts: the Sutra of Mercy, the Sutra of Glory, the Creed, the Holy Scriptures and the Lamb. You can choose different works from different composers and mix them freely.
However, the genre and order cannot be changed! Otherwise, it will not conform to the mystery of "Unfallen Fire" and will not achieve the effect of paying tribute and worshiping divine power.
Is there room for change? Of course there is.
In fact, the five parts can be added before and after, but it is not called a "regular mass", but a "special mass" or "special mass", which is used during important festivals, celebrations or major ceremonies.
!
Special masses can call upon more of the divine power of the "Unfallen Fire" and achieve greater effects, but it is easy to imagine that in a 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5-stage mass ceremony with a fixed program
To add more, what kind of artistic accomplishment and profound understanding of doctrine is required!
The current Lavoisier first added a preface to the 1st part of the regular Mass, the "Introduction to the Table", and then added the "Continuing Chant" and "Sermon Song" between 1st and 2nd.
", added the "Sutra of Consecration", "Silent Prayer without Lyrics" and "Preface" between 3 and 4. After the Eucharist was performed between 4 and 5, there was a summary and sublimation of "Holy Communion" after 5.
"Post-Recital" - Yes, Fanning cleverly arranged all seven movements of the "German Requiem" into it.
Not only were the details of the consecration exquisitely controlled, meticulously studied, and most sincere, but more importantly, a large and exquisite special mass ceremony was constructed by him!
"After the ceremony, the congregation dispersed."
In the eyes of more than five hundred pairs of awe or joy, Fan Ning spoke kindly and slowly walked down the altar.
