Chapter 27
Essential Wonder of God

a
Good travelers do not leave tracks
b
Good orators do not seek errors
Good reckoners do not use counters
c

d
Good rulers need no bars
Thus no one can open it
Good binders need no ropes
Thus no one can untie it

e
Therefore, God saves others
And abandons no one
God saves all things
And abandons nothing
This is called following the light of God

Therefore, good men are teachers of bad men
f
Bad men are lessons for good men
If you fail to value and learn the lessons from your teachers
Then intelligence counts for nothing

g
This is the essential wonder of God’s love
