Printable Mode1 Corinteni 9:1
|
9:1 Nu sunt eu slobod? Nu sunt eu apostol? N-am văzut eu pe Isus, Domnul nostru? Nu sunteţi voi lucrul meu în Domnul? Nu sunt eu slobod? Dovezile textuale favorizează (cf. p. 10) inversarea ordinii primelor două întrebări. Aşezarea întrebării” Nu sunt eu slobod?” întâi, face mai precisă legătura dintre versetul acesta şi ceea ce fusese dezbătut în cap. 8. E ca şi cum Pavel ar fi spus: ,,Vă cer să renunţaţi la libertatea voastră, şi să vă abţineţi de a o folosi arbitrar. Vă cer să fiţi atenţi la starea spirituală a fraţilor voştri mai slabi, şi să vă stăpâniţi libertatea în acord cu aceasta. Nu fac eu aşa ceva? Am anumite privilegii ca apostol de care nu mă folosesc, ca nu cumva făcând aşa să împiedic pe cineva să facă un cuvenit progres pe cărarea creştină.” Construcţia întrebărilor din versetul acesta arată că ele toate aşteaptă un răspuns afirmativ. Apostol. Acest capitol, cercetat superficial, poate avea înfăţişarea unei digresiuni de la tendinţa generală de gândire asupra căreia se stăruie în capitolul precedent. Totuşi, el este o continuare a temei acelui capitol, mai ales a v. 13. Pavel ilustrează dispoziţia lui de a renunţa la drepturile sale legitime ca apostol. În plus, pretenţia lui de a fi apostol fusese contestată (v. 3). El începe să enunţe dovezile apostoliei sale. Enunţarea dreptului său de a fi recunoscut ca apostol constituie una din relatările cele mai frumoase, distinse şi înnobilatoare ce se pot găsi oriunde cu privire la virtutea tăgăduirii de sine şi a principiilor ce ar trebui să determine la acţiune pe slujitorul Evangheliei. Cel care e plin de duhul lui Hristos e gata să facă orice şi să fie orice pentru a face să înainteze interesele împărăţiei lui Dumnezeu. Văzut ...pe Isus. [,,Văzut pe Isus Hristos”, KJV]. O obiecţie faţă de pretenţia lui Pavel la apostolie era că Pavel nu fusese asociat al lui Hristos pe când Hristos fusese pe pământ. Isus a chemat pe apostol ca martor al Său (vezi Fapte 1:8). E adevărat că Pavel nu fusese un asociat al Domnului înainte de moartea Lui, dar L-a văzut după învierea Lui, şi în felul acesta putea pretinde cuprinderea în grupa apostolilor (vezi Fapte 9:3-5; vezi 1Cor 15:8). Merită de a se nota faptul că Pavel adesea îşi susţinea pretenţia că era apostol prin referirea la vedenia sa divină (vezi Fapte 22:14, 15; 26:16; 1Cor 16:8, 9). Lucrarea mea. Apostolul se referă la faptul că chiar aceia care ridicau obiecţii la faptul că el era apostol fuseseră convertiţi la Domnul prin lucrarea lui. El oferă aceasta ca o dovadă că Isus îl recunoştea ca apostol şi-l binecuvânta în lucrarea aceea. Ar fi iraţional de a crede că Dumnezeu ar binecuvânta în aşa fel pe un impostor; de aceea, înfiinţarea bisericii din Corint prin lucrarea lui Pavel era o mărturie pentru apostolia lui. Un slujitor poate pe bună dreptate să atragă atenţia la binecuvântarea care însoţeşte lucrarea sa ca dovadă a faptului că e chemat de Dumnezeu (vezi Mat 7:16, 20). În Domnul. Pavel admite că tot ce fusese făcut de el fusese săvârşit prin puterea pusă la îndemână de Domnul. Ştia că de la sine nu putea face nimic (cf. Ioan 15:5). Toată puterea şi înţelepciunea lui veneau de la Domnul, care îl chemase la slujba apostolică (Rom 1:1; 1Cor 1:1; 1Tim 2:7; 2Tim 1:1; Titus 1:1). Această deplină supunere la voia lui Dumnezeu şi inteligentă recunoaştere a incapacităţii omului de a face ceva în propria sa putere, este cel dintâi şi cel mai important factor în constituirea unui slujitor cu succes al Evangheliei. |

Special note for ANDROID SmartPhones
I recommend to download PhoneMe emulator for Android from here.
Especially I recommend phoneME Advanced - Foundation Profile + MIDP High Resolution b168 rev20547 from here, or from here.
Then you have to build your application, to transfer the .jar and .jad files on your mobile phone and run using this nice emulator.
1. Install a Zip Utility from Android Market.
2. Install a File Manager from Android Market.
3. Download and install PhoneMe, as mentioned above.
4. Build your application by using Download Multilingual Service or Dynamic Download (zip).
5. Copy the zip file into your Android Phone and unzip the content in a folder, and then write down the path to the unzipped files and the name of the .jad file.
6. Launch PhoneMe from your smartphone.
7. Inside PhoneMe, write to the main window the path and the name to the .jad file, above mentioned. Will look something like: file:///mnt/sd/download/BiblePhone.jad and then press enter.
8. The application will be installed, and next a hyperlink will be available below the above mentioned textbox. On this way you can install as many of MIDP application you like on your Android Phone.
How to install the application in Java Mobile enabled phones
It is possible now to have the Holy Scriptures on your mobile phone and to read
it wherever you are due to the Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP)
technology in 1.0 and 2.0 versions, developed for Java applications.
A good advice is to try in the beginning the MIDP 1.0 / 128 Kbytes version, and
progressively to advance to MIDP 2.0 and larger volumes (512 Kbytes or more).
The application is available for MIDP 2.0, MIDP 1.0. You have only to select one
table on the field MIDP2.0 or MIDP1.0, according to the desired Bible version.
Then, you shall make a click on the JAR (Java Archive) file in order to obtain
the software to be installed on your mobile phone.
I recommend you to start with STARTER(MIDP1.0old) edition, then to continue with
INTERMEDIATE(MIDP1.0), and in the end, if the mobile phone supports this thing,
to try to install the ADVANCED (MIDP2.0) edition. Also, start with 128 kbytes
volumes, continue with 512 kbytes, and at the end try the version in one file.
There are cases where the mobile phone requires so called JAD (Java Descriptor)
files. These JAD files has to be
uploaded, on this case, together with the desired JAR files(s).
There are different methods to download the applications in your mobile phone as
follows:
1. Directly from Internet by using a WAP or GPRS connection
2. By using the infrared port of the mobile phone
3. By wireless Bluetooth access to the mobile phone
4. By cable link between PC ad mobile phone
5. If none from the above cases are valid
Next, we shall examine each case in order to have a successfully installation of
the software.
1. Directly from Internet by using a WAP or GPRS connection
If your have Internet access on your mobile phone (e.g. WAP or GPRS), it is
enough to access
https://biblephone.intercer.net/wap/ from the browser of the mobile phone,
and to access the desired Bible version, and then to make an option about
MIDP1.0 or MIDP2.0, and finally to select the desired module (e.g. one or more).
After the last selection, the desired version will be downloaded on your mobile
phone.
Many phones have only this option for installing JAVA appplications.
2. By using the infrared port of the mobile phone
Sometimes there is a need for a special uploader software for specific mobile
phones.
If you don't have access to Internet directly from your mobile phone, then you
shall have to pass to this step requiring to have infrared ports on your mobile
phone and on the computer.
a. On this case, you will download the application by using the computer from
the Internet (i.e. JAR files).
b. Once the application is downloaded (preferable on the desktop) you will have
to activate the infrared port on the mobile phone and align it with the infrared
port of the computer (preferable laptop).
c. Then a window will appear asking what file you want to send to the mobile
phone. Next, you will select the downloaded JAR file, and after OK, the mobile
phone will ask you if you want to load that file. You say YES and the
application will be downloaded on your mobile phone.
d. Probably, you will be asked by the mobile phone where you want to save it (e.g.
on the games or applications directories). After you made this selection, the
file will be ready to be loaded for run.
The displaying preference can be set inside the application in order to have
larger fonts, full screen display etc.
3. By wireless Bluetooth access to the mobile phone
Sometimes there is a need for a special uploader software for specific mobile
phones.
This situation is similar with the infrared case. You have only to activate
Bluetooth access on your mobile phone (check if exists) and on the computer (check
if exists).
4. By cable link between PC ad mobile phone
Sometimes there is a need for a special uploader software for specific
mobile phones.
On this case the steps are as follows:
a. On this case, you will download the application by using the computer from
the Internet (i.e. JAR files).
b. Once the application is downloaded (preferable on the desktop) you will have
to set up the wired connection between the mobile phone and the computer. Next,
you will start the synchronization / data transfer application and download the
JAR file in your mobile phone. Surely, you will have to consult the CD of your
mobile phone.
c. By this application you shall transfer into your mobile phone the JAR file in
the games or applications directories. Next, you will have to select for run the
JAR desired file.
5. If none from the above cases are valid
On this unhappy case, I recommend you to find a friend with a laptop having
infrared / Bluetooth capabilities, or to buy a data link cable, or to change
your current model of mobile phone.
Unfortunately, some models of mobile phones require only WAP/GPRS in order to
download and run Java applications.
Sometimes there is a need for a special uploader software for specific mobile
phones. Therefore check the documentation of them and also the page for specific
models.
Why so many versions? Simple, because not all the mobile phones support the
Bible in one file with MIDP 2.0 (the most advanced for the time being).
