Did Emperor Kangxi believe in God?

Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty wrote poems praising Christianity.

one

In the dense eye chakra, you must know the origin of nature.

The body has no end and no space, and the position is neither silent nor empty.

Tianmen has been closed to beginners for a long time, and the road to happiness depends on his son.

True Confucianism has no respect except unscrupulous heresy.

two

Where to find the mysterious road is in the sense of density of our emperor.

Foolish people teach the gospel when the world is in decline.

Corporal Zhao has been famous for his birth since ancient times.

Now that Christ shines, my eyes are full of tears.

These are two poems written by Emperor Kangxi, which are well known to church people, but little known to ordinary people. It may be even harder for China people to imagine that Emperor Kangxi, who is famous in the history of China, knows the Bible and Catholic books like the back of his hand, and knows the history of the church like the back of his hand. In fact, Kangxi's biological mother is a devout Catholic. If it weren't for the later "etiquette dispute", Kangxi would have converted to Catholicism. He even wrote a poem of determination.

The treasure of life

The sun, moon and stars in the sky are precious, and the grains, gold and silver on the ground are precious.

The country needs to cherish integrity and loyalty, and the family needs to cherish filial sons and grandchildren.

Gold and white jade is not a treasure, but a leisure life.

A hundred years and 36,000 days, if there is no life, it is the most pitiful.

Come and die, have a dream on earth.

Eat all kinds of flavors in your mouth and put on royal clothes.

All corners of the country are guests, so how can the emperor live?

Life and death are the biggest in the world, and white jade and gold are also in vain.

Light rice and porridge satisfy hunger, and the clothes are splendid for thousands of years.

Tianmen has been open to beginners for a long time.

I am willing to accept the son, and my son's name will live forever.

I am willing to accept the son, and my son's name will live forever. This poem made western missionaries think that Kangxi had accepted the Catholic faith. In his letter to Leibniz, Bai Jin praised Kangxi beyond measure, and the whole Europe was expecting the emperor to make China the largest Catholic country. Of course, the pope's stupid decision later buried this desire of Europeans.

The more famous is Kangxi Cross Song, written by Kangxi:

Ten frames of blood and a half flow are completed, and a hundred feet of grace flow from the west.

At midnight, the disciples carried the chicken three times.

Five thousand lashes and tears, six feet hanging two thieves.

It's terrible to be shocked by eight things, and it's amazing to cry out seven words.

It is impossible for people to write this poem without a deep understanding of the crucifixion of Jesus. Interestingly, today many Christian families love to put up a pair of couplets, all of which are written by Mi-seon Jeon, and the most public, righteous and compassionate one is written by Kangxi.

Seeing this, someone will definitely ask, since Kangxi likes Christian belief so much, why did he expel missionaries later? This problem is very complicated and there is a long room for development. Interested friends go to Baidu to look for it, and there are many articles. It is worth mentioning that Kangxi once 13 times received the Pope's envoy, stating that "China people's heaven is not material, nor is it a religion that worships Confucius, but a manifestation of filial piety and respect for the heart, which does not conflict with Christian beliefs". However, the pope was stubborn and inflexible, which finally angered Kangxi, and later generations lamented it. When it was time for Yongzheng, a piece of paper said, "Do you want to turn China people into believers and become obedient subjects of your king? Once thousands of foreign ships come, China will be in big trouble ",and China will be completely cut off from Western religion.

Post another poem praising Christ written by Emperor Kangxi of Qing Dynasty, and end this article. The kings of heaven are not only willing to argue about religion, but this article should be discerning.

compliment

Establish the Lord of heaven and earth and create the root of characters.

Push it to the front without beginning and lead it to the back without end.

The six rivers are inseparable, and they are different in kind.

This invisible imitation is a relic of birth.

It is not easy to be poor by preaching knowledge and teaching.
