The Ethics of Confucius

Warren Gilbert Benton

Sinossi

Kǒng Fūzǐ, or Kung-fu-tse (latinized into Confucius in the late 16th century by the early Jesuit missionaries) was a Chinese philosopher and politician of the Spring and Autumn period who is traditionally considered the paragon of Chinese sages. Born around 550 B.C., he descended from one of the many royal families which had figured in the past as rulers of tribes or provinces of ancient China. Confucius’s teachings and philosophy underpin East Asian culture and society, remaining influential across China and East Asia to this day. His philosophical teachings, called Confucianism, emphasized personal and governmental morality, correctness of social relationships, justice, kindness, and sincerity. But what was the most authentic ethical meaning of his teachings and philosophy? How much did his message contribute to the creation of Chinese culture? The great American journalist Warren Gilbert Benton (1850-1931), with his essay The Ethics of Confucius, attempted to answer these questions.

The Essentials of Prayer -...

Edward M. Bounds

*** Premium Ebook with beautiful layout ***The men of olden times who wrought well in prayer, who brought the largest things to pass, who moved God to do great things, were those who were entirely given over to God in their praying. God wants, and must have, all that there is in man in answering his prayers. He must have whole-hearted men through whom to work out His purposes and plans concerning men. God must have men in their entirety. No double-minded man need apply. No vacillating man can be used. No man with a divided allegiance to God, and the world and self, can do the praying that is needed.In one word, the entire man without reservation must love God. So it takes the same entire man to do the praying which God requires of men. All the powers of man must be engaged in it. God cannot tolerate a divided heart in the love He requires of men, neither can He bear with a divided man in praying.
