The devout Confucius was connected to the Spirit of Commonsense: was Confucius simply extending Divine Intervention?
One day a Chinese religious leader named Confucius was called to advise the prince of Ch’I to define “good government,” to the ruler he proclaimed: “There is good government when the Ruler is Ruler, the minister is minister, the Father is father, and the son is son.”[1] The devout Confucius was connected to the Spirit of Commonsense. His philosophy, paralleled by few, was simply Divine. Ruling elite and politicians feared his simplicity so they sent him away from Ch’i.
The Trinity of God prevails when the Father, Son and Holy Spirit minister to people of Faith. Together they instill Morality, Good Judgment, and just Statutes for the World-at-Large. Those who accept God’s gracious murmurs are Converted-in-Nature and could govern a Divine way-of-life for all Humanity; commonsense would forever prevail through believing God’s Trinity exists, was Confucius simply extending Divine Intervention?
“The wicked are stringing their bows and fitting their arrows on the bowstrings. They shoot from the shadows at those whose hearts are right. The foundations of law and order have collapsed. What can the righteous do?
But the Lord is in his holy Temple; the Lord still rules from heaven. He watches everyone closely
examining every person on earth. The Lord examines both the righteous and the wicked. He hates those who love violence. He will rain down blazing coals and burning sulfur on the wicked, punishing them with scorching winds. For the righteous Lord loves justice. The virtuous will see his face.” (Psalms 11:3-7 NLT)
We have a while before “Good Government,” will reign in Hope and common sense rather than Selfish Tradition. But our Lord’s Trinity continuously flows into souls that are Humbled into Empowering, Understanding, and Trusting others; then God will Rule and Minister as Father through His Son Jesus whose Spirit never rests.
