孔子帶著一群結業弟子遠赴異鄉列國尋找新雇主與工作,由於待業人員的陣仗太大,各國雇主多所顧忌,因此都不願意雇用;有一天夜裡,在曠野的生命樹(The Tree of Life)與生命河(The River of Life)之旁,孔子沒有肉可吃,他於是抱怨地對螢火蟲說,“富而可求也,雖執鞭之士,吾亦爲之!”( 《論語‧述而篇第七》)
螢火蟲不同意地說,“《聖經》說,‘But a physical man does not receive the things of the spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot get to know [them], because they are examined spiritually. However, the spiritual man examines indeed all things, but he himself is not examined by any man. For who has come to know the mind of Jehovah, that he may instruct him? But we do have the mind of Christ.’(1 Corinthians 2:14-16),你理解‘The Spiritual Man’與‘The Physical Man的巨大差別嗎?”
