厄利亞不害怕讓國王知道天主對他的懲罰。
我們需要向先知學習。
如今,有些話題成了禁忌:例如魔鬼及其對我們的攻擊,或是被判入地獄的風險。
有些人甚至害怕去想這些危險,彷彿只要不去想,危險就會消失。
或者,我們雖然會想,但只是獨自思考。
我們害怕讓這樣的議題成為大家共同討論、反思的對象。
耶穌曾多次談到魔鬼。
Elijiah is not afraid of letting the king know the punishment the Lord has decreed against him.
We need to learn from the prophet. Nowadays, some topics are kind of taboo: realities like the devil and his works against us, or the risk of being condemned to hell. Some people are afraid even of thinking about these dangers, as if by not thinking of them the danger would disappear.
Or, we think of them, but only by ourselves. We are afraid of letting such topic become object of shared talk and reflection.
Jesus spoke about the devil, and not only once.
