"Master Xilan, I want to know if God made a covenant with the prophets because making covenants is a mission God assigned to prophets?"
When faced with Antion's question, Xilan provided an explanation.
"Perhaps it is, or perhaps it is not; only God and the prophets can be sure.
I remember that the prophet received the Divine Revelation of the covenant in a dream. Perhaps God had been preparing and arranging for this covenant all along."
Although Xilan's answer wasn't perfect, it was quite comprehensive.
In fact, this was his stance on "predestination" and "the elect" at the Great Council, just phrased differently.
Antion then raised several more questions.
Some were quite straightforward, such as: Was the situation of Al and Yarlessto at sea arranged by your God?
Questions like this were easier to answer. Xilan quoted some original passages from Scriptures and thought it over in his mind, making sure he didn't stray from the prophet's path before he gave his own answer.
