The Classic Chinese Novel and
Sanguosha the Card Game
Course Description:
The Three Kingdoms period, which spanned from AD 184 to 280, was a time
filled with war and turmoil due to competing powers which vied for control
over China. Wei, Wu, and Shu make up the dominant rival powers in this
period, thus giving the Three Kingdoms era its namesake. The Three Kingdoms
period of Chinese history pervades throughout Chinese culture. The Chinese

In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree:
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea.
So twice five miles of fertile ground
With walls and towers were girdled round;
And there were gardens bright with sinuous rills,
Where blossomed many an incense-bearing tree;
And here were forests ancient as the hills,
Enfolding sunny spots of greenery.

The Atlantic coast of America would be altered, especially around New York

Russia (At the time of the prophecy was atheistic and communistic) would

*********************************
你怎么知道神不知道？？？
神的计划是根据神至高旨意所定的-- 神按照他的心意行事：神不能按照人
类的历史，改变他的计划。反之，他的计划管理人类的历史。但以理书四章35节说明：
神向天上灵界和向地上的人，都是「凭自己的意旨行事」。神决定人类历史的发展，和
世上君王的兴衰(但二2131至45)。神自由地订立他的计划，不受任何人和事的干预。
神的计划有两方面：
(1)神的指导性的意旨(directive will)：有些事情，神是管理者，神叫事情
如期发生。神创造(赛四十五18)，神管治宇宙(但四35)，神设立君王和政府(但二21)，
神拣选得救的人(弗一4)等等都是。
(2)神容许性的意旨(permissive will)：虽然神决定了一切，但神可能是凭着
第二因素(secondary causes)，叫这些事情成就。举例说，罪不能推翻神的计划，不过
神并不是罪恶的创造者。罪也是在神计划范围之内，也是神永恒旨意的一部分，但
人不能推掉罪的责任。「计划(decree )和计划的实行(exec... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 9567 | 25 我花了5分钟很努力地想了想，总结了一下：
你同意旧约中，"son"用来指不同的人或非人，例如，儿子，天使，王，亚当，从它的
单数、复数形式，推不出来任何有实质意义的东西；也就是说“son"的单复数除了表明
名词一个或多个外并没有别的意义，但你却不同意可以用"son of God"指代【一个】天
使，【一个】人，【一个】王，这是很weird的逻辑。
Exodus 4:22-23 Israel is my son, even my firstborn. and I told you, "Let my
son go, so he may worship me." But you refused to let him go; so I will kill
your firstborn son.'" 这里指的是Israel（Jacob），单数形式。

的信条，其中有一段是这样说的：「神从永远，本着他自己的旨意，定下最明智、最神
圣的计划，他自主地、绝不改变地决定一切将要成就的事。不过，神绝不是罪恶之源，
他不剥夺被造者的自由意志，而且也不剥夺「第二因」的自由性或偶然性，反而加以确
立。」(译注：「第二因」与「第一因*」(first cause)──神──相对)。又说：「虽
然神知道在各种情况之下所可能发生的一切事情；可是他预定任何事，并不是根据他对
那件事情的预见(foresee)，也不是因为他预先知道它在当时的情况中将有何发展。」(
三章1-2节)
预定论认为神的旨意是绝对的，也是无条件的，一切有限的受造物联合起来也不能
影响神的旨意，这旨意完全是神在永恒里安排的。神是万物的主宰，伟大而有能力，安
