The structure of moral activity is a reflection of the triune nature of God?

Question

A moral activity consists of a motive, an act, and a consequence.

The motive is the source (reflects the Father). It is from within, and is invisible, unseen.

The act is the embodiment of the motive (reflects the Son, who is God in the flesh). The motive takes form in the act.

The consequence flows from the act, and from the motive through the act (reflect the Holy Spirit, whom the Father sends through the Son). The consequence is the act in its impact on others.

Note that this is always the order of any moral activity. First there is the motive, then the act, and finally the consequence. Note all three are absolutely necessary in any moral activity. We can only judge one of these in light of the other two.

Moral activity is only a reflection of the structure of the triune God. It is even a truer reflection when the nature of moral activity reflects the nature of God, which is light and love.

Answer 1

It makes sense to me.

Another explanation of the three comes in simple sentence structure. The fun free ebook below gets into this rather deeply in the latter chapters.

Answer 2

that really varies on which philospher you admire, than there is the basic groundwork which your common question can run on.

I percieve this to be by our human nature, and not by reasoning.
