Law or Teaching is often an ambiguous concept, for there are laws that fetter as well as teachings that liberate. Christianity, for example, distinguishes the Mosaic Law which educates but confines from the liberating grace available through faith in Christ. Works of law cannot save or liberate, according to passages from the New Testament, the Upanishads, and the Buddhist scriptures. Laws and doctrines are of provisional value, a concession to human sin, according to a text from the Tao Te | Translation - Chinese
教条或教义常是一个模棱两可的概念, 因为有束缚的教条;也有解放的教义。 就基督教来说,区别了属于教导性质的摩西律, 却局限了因对基督的信念而产生的优雅解放. 教条是不能逞救或解放的, 根据新约圣经, [奥义书], 还有佛教经典的记载. 教条和学说有的是当时的实用价值, 是对人类罪过的一种让步, 根据道德经内的一段记载….

1. Ali Baba lived in a town. He used to go to a forest everyday to get firewood to earn a living. One day, he heard a loud sound and saw forty thieves who stopped at a cliff. One said “Open Seasame.” A door of a cave opened. They entered the cave.
2. They came out and said, “Close Seasame.” It closed. They went away. Ali Baba went there and said, 'Open Seasame.” He was surprised to find gold, ornaments and jewellery inside. He filled
3. a bag with jewels and gold. He went back home and borrowed the measuring pot from his rich brother Cassim. Cassim suspected him and put some honey at botton of the pot to know the secret. While weighing some gold got stuck with the
4. honey. Cassim pestered him to tell about the treasure. Cassim went there and shouted, “Open Seasame.” He collected jewels. But he forgot the words to open the door again. The thieves found him. They cut him into pieces. Ali Baba took
5. him back to get his wounds sewn by an old tailor. On not getting the man they were suspicious. The chief came across the old tailor who told him about Ali Baba. The chief marked 'X' at his door to remember it. Marjanna, Ali Baba's
| Translation - Malay
Suatu masa dahulu, tinggal seorang lelaki yang bernama Ali Baba. Dia akan ke hutan pada setiap hari untuk mencari kayu api supaya dapat menyara hidupnya. Pada suatu hari, dia terdengar satu bunyi yang kuat dan ternampak empat puluh orang penyamun yang berhenti di atas sebuah bukit. Salah satu daripada penyamun itu menyahut “Bukalah pintu abu kasam zam zam”. Sebuah pintu gua terbuka dan mereka pun masuk ke dalam gua itu.
2. Mereka keluar dan berkata,”Tutuplah pintu abu kasam” dan pintu itu pun tertutup. Mereka pun meninggalkan tempat itu. Ali baba pun pergi ke tempat itu dan berkata,”Bukalah pintu abu kasam zam zam” dan pintu itu pun terbuka. Ali baba sungguh terkejut melihat emas, intan dan berlian di dalam gua itu.
3. Ali baba pun megisi begnya dengan ema, intan dan berlian. Dia pulang ke rumah dan meminjam pengukur abangnya yang kaya, Kassim. Kassim menyangsi bahawa ada sesuatu yang tidak kena dengan Ali Baba dan meletakkan sedikit madu di bawah pengukurnya untuk mengetahui rahsia Ali Baba.
4. Semasa mengukur emas itu, ada emas yang terlekat dengan madu. Kassim memaksa Ali Baba memberitahunya tentang harta karun itu. Kassim pun pergi ke sana dan berkata,”Bukalah pintu abu kasam zam zam”. Kassim mula mengumpul semua emas dan intan yang terdapat di sana. Kassim terlupa kata-kata untuk menutup pintu gua itu. Penyamun-penyamun itu terjumpa Kassim dan mencederakan Kassim.
5. Ali Baba membawa Kassim kepada dukun untuk menjahit luka-lukanya. Apabila penyamun-penyamun itu mencari lelaki yang disyaki, dukun itu memberitahu mereka tentang Ali Baba. Ketua penyamun itu mencari rumah Ali Baba dan membuat tanda pangkah,”X” supaya senang untuk mengenal pasti rumah itu pada waktu malam untuk membunuh Ali Baba.
