Printable Mode1 Ioan 4:16
|
4:16 Si noi am cunoscut si am crezut dragostea pe care o are Dumnezeu fata de noi. Dumnezeu este dragoste; si cine ramane in dragoste, ramane in Dumnezeu, si Dumnezeu ramane in el. Si noi. Ar putea fi vorba de cei pomeniti in v. 14, adica de grupa apostolilor, care, in contrast cu universalul ,,cine”, fusesera deja considerati crestini de multi ani. Datorita acestei experientei statornicite, marturia lor merita consideratie si respect. Am cunoscut si am crezut. Forma verbelor traduse astfel arata ca Ioan si colegii lui nu doar cunoscusera si crezusera, dar continua sa faca asta. Este nevoie de credinta si de cunostinta; amandoua sunt esentiale pentru experienta crestina. Inainte de a putea sa credem in Dumnezeu, trebuie sa-L cunoastem. Trebuie sa cunoastem planul de mantuire inainte de a putea sa ii incredintam viata noastra vesnica. In plus, atat cunostinta cat si credinta pot creste treptat. Cand credem ca am invatat unele lucruri, suntem gata sa cunoastem mai multe si sa credem in ele. Astfel, nici unul din aceste procese nu poate fi vreodata incheiat. Vom continua sa cunoastem mai mult si sa credem mai mult si niciodata nu vom cunoaste pe deplin profunzimile iubirii lui Dumnezeu pentru om. Pe care o are Dumnezeu fata de noi. Mai degraba ,,o are in noi”. Forma verbului din versiunea greaca accentueaza continuitatea iubirii lui Dumnezeu fata de copiii Sai. Prepozitia ,,in” arata ca noi suntem cadrul in care se descopera iubirea lui Dumnezeu. Un crestin consacrat este manifestarea cea mai convingatoare a roadelor iubirii lui Dumnezeu; aceasta, lucrand in el, il transforma pe pacatos intr-un sfant. O astfel de iubire, care face minuni, nu poate sa nu fie recunoscuta de catre cel in care ea a lucrat si de catre semenii lui, care observa puterea ei transformatoare. In felul acesta, prin viata crestinilor, ceilalti ajung sa cunoasca si sa creada iubirea lui Dumnezeu. Dumnezeu este dragoste. Vezi comentariul de la v. 8. Aici aceste cuvinte sunt legate de o afirmatie, in timp ce in v. 8 dupa ele urmeaza o declaratie negativa. Faptul ca Dumnezeu este dragoste a stat intotdeauna la baza rationamentului lui Ioan si a conditionat desele lui afirmatii categorice. Ramane in dragoste. Ori de cate ori ne pastram in atmosfera iubirii, inseamna ca ramanem in prezenta lui Dumnezeu. Pentru ca ramanem in dragoste, ramanem in Dumnezeu, care este dragoste (v. 8). Pentru a-L iubi mereu pe Dumnezeu si pe oameni, in ciuda influentelor contrarii, se cere vigoare spirituala, care poate fi veni numai dintr-o comuniune constanta cu Domnul. Cu privire la dificultatea de a pastra mereu partasia necesara intre noi si Dumnezeu, vezi comentariul de la v. 15. Dumnezeu ramane in el. [,,Dumnezeu in el”, KJV]. Dovezile textuale favorizeaza formularea ,,Dumnezeu ramane in el”. Toti cei care au gustat bucuriile acestei partasii cu Dumnezeul iubirii stiu ca rasplata este vrednica de straduinte. Satana o stie si e atat de viclean incat incearca sa tagaduiasca pe fata valoarea ei. In schimb el zugraveste multe lucruri mai putin bune in culori stralucitoare si ne indeamna sa ne concentram gandurile asupra lor chiar daca numai pentru un scurt timp. O data ce a putut sa ne abata atentia de la Dumnezeu, izbuteste adesea sa ne conduca mintea spre ganduri rele cu privire la propria persoana si la altii. Inainte de a ne da seama de primejdie, cultivam resentimente ca urmare a faptului ca atat iubirea cat si Dumnezeu au fost alungati din inima noastra. Este o tactica veche, dar functioneaza inca foarte bine! Cea mai buna aparare a noastra este sa ne concentram mintea in mod deliberat si constant asupra binecuvantarilor de care pe care le-am primit de la Dumnezeu (Psalmi 63,6; 139,17.18). Amintirea lucrurilor pe care le-a facut Dumnezeu pentru noi, a insemnatatii pe care a avut-o partasia cu El, va fi intarita si atunci cand le vom povesti altora bucuriile noastre. Astfel de marturii ii incurajeaza pe fratii nostri si ne intareste hotararea de a pastra legatura cu Cerul (Maleahi 3,16; MH 100). |

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).
