A. Legalism was the central governing idea of the Qin Dynasty, culminating in the unification of China under the 'First Emperor' (Qin Shi Huang). Legalist thought has often been compared to the work of Italian political writer Niccolo Machiavelli and the Arthashastra of Kautilya. Legalism was first created by Shang Yang. Hired by the then Duke Xiao of Qin, his task was to change Qin from a backward weak state to an advanced and strong one. Shang Yang made many reforms to the state, one of the most important ones would be the advance of rank, the stripping of nobility rank and laws to make both the aristocrat and common people equal. Such reform had been the advocate of a centralized system. The state of Qin may had been the first state in… [cont.]

Asked by Dancer110 - Thu Sep 13 23:14:04 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Confucianism, Daoism, Legalism (and other schools of the 'Hundred Schools of Thought') all arose among the Chinese during the greatest period of disunity and strife the Chinese people had ever known - the Warring States period (approx. 475-221 BCE). At the time, there were seven major states (Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei, and Qin) which competed for power, and the works of the intellectuals who served as advisors to the Dukes on the methods of government, war, and diplomacy were of such a high level that they easily entered into the realm of philosophy. Each one was a guide for the leader to follow and bring stability and unity to the land.

A. Confucianism is an ancient Chinese philosophy essentially invented by "Confucius", aka Master Kong, a Chinese statesman and philosopher from the seventh century BC (IIRC). Basically his philosophy comes down to respect for elders and authority, do your duty and things will be OK. Legalism is basically the idea that one should obey the law. Dauism, or Daoism, or Taoism, is the ancient Chinese religion, if you can call it religion, which is based on the idea that balance is the universal principle. Everything has a counterpart which it needs to define itself. Yin and Yang are the most famous symbol of Daoism.

As a born-again Christian, how would you define legalism in the church?
Q. Have you ever been in a legalistic church? Would it be legalistic to say that Christians should work 12 hours a day, six days a week? Would it be legalistic to say that if you're not doing everything the way the pastor wants, then God is angry with you? Would it be legalistic to say that all church members should "dress up" for church every Sunday morning, and not wear blue jeans or pullover shirts?

A. It's legalistic to say we have to follow the letter of the law, instead of the spirit/intent of the law. Jesus came to tell us and show us that love superceded the law.

A. As some have shared, the Seventh day Adventist ( SDA) still hold to the OT dispensation, mainly in terms of literal Sabbath keeping. The Messianic Jews still do, even though they believe that the Lord Jesus is the Messiah, there is still some adhering to tradition, upbringing, and jewish culture that is hard to break away from. For them to call themselves Messianic Jews mean that they have yet to see the One New Man ( Eph 2:15), where there is neither Jew nor Greek, circumcision and uncircumsision, barbarian, Scythian, slave, free man, but Christ is over all and in all ( Col 3:11).

A. Well, without breaking them down into separate categories, I would have to say they all resound with Hinduism's faith and practice called Dharma. Dharma is Right Action, Right Thinking, it's Right. What do we call a man who answers a calling to be a Minister? Well, The Calling is his Dharma. Legally, he is bound to the laws of Church and State. (I know, these days that's kind of sketchy--but there is laws of the State and Laws of God that he must abide by or else!). In terms of Taoism, he's just being what is of the Tao for him to be--or so he believes. Confucianism is, at least, arguably, a precursor to Marxism, Communism and Socialism. It is well-constructed community-minded philosophy made manifest in practice every day. Laws… [cont.]

A. Because religion teaches a mix of grace and law. and they do that because they have benn taught it by their predecessors who was taught it by their predecessors and so on. When one looks at the book of Acts we see that type of person already making inroads into the churches back then. and we see what Paul thought of them. satan saw the power the body of believers had and how effective the gospel was. He could not fight that kind of power so he "joined" so he could be a cancer and corrupt it from the inside out. So his twisted followers in the church invented doctrines that could be supported via the old testament and by taking scriptures out of context from the new and spinning a legalistic doctrine out of it.

A. These were the revolutionary foundations of eastern philosophical thought. The Chinese lived very simple lives in which they became a part of their environment and became more intimate with the workings of nature. These philosophies made for better living and peace among its people and from them begot their legal system however many revisions have been made afterward.
