Printable Mode2 Corinteni 3:3
|
3:3 Voi sunteti aratati ca fiind epistola lui Hristos, scrisa de noi, ca slujitori ai Lui, nu cu cerneala, ci cu Duhul Dumnezeului celui viu; nu pe niste table de piatra, ci pe niste table care sunt inimi de carne. Sunteti aratati. [,,explicit declarati”, KJV]. Literal, ,,facuti cunoscut”, ,,descoperiti”. Lumea are nevoie de crestini mai ,,citeti”. Limbajul unei vieti de crestini trebuie observat de toata lumea. Numai in felul acesta pot oamenii sa inteleaga ce inseamna crestinismul, sa priceapa marile lui adevaruri si sa se deprinda sa le placa Legea lui Dumnezeu si sa asculte de ea. Epistola lui Hristos. Fiecare credincios si fiecare biserica ar trebui sa fie o scrisoare a lui Hristos catre lume. Autorul scrisorii este Hristos. Materialul pe care e impriMatei scrisul este inima fiecarui credincios si ceea ce este scris este Legea lui Dumnezeu, o transcriere a caracterului Lui. Copistul in cazul acesta fusese Pavel. Hristos a scris Cele Zece Porunci cu insusi degetul Sau pe tablele de piatra (Ex. 24,12; 31,18; Deut. 9,1,11; cf. PP 366). El a inspirat barbati sa scrie Biblia (2 Timotei 3,16; 2 Petru 1,20.21) si este, in felul acesta, si autorul ei. Daca vor, oamenii pot sa-L vada si sa-L cunoasca pe Hristos in Lege, in Scripturi si in aceia care cred in El. Scrisa de noi. [,,slujita de noi”, KJV, G.Gal.]. Hristos l-a folosit pe Pavel ca secretar sau copist al Lui. Pavel nu a compus si nici nu a dictat scrisoarea scrisa in inimile convertitilor sai. El a fost doar instrumentul lui Dumnezeu folosit pentru redactarea acestei epistole vii. Slujitorii credinciosi ai Cuvantului din biserica de astazi sunt scriitorii lui Dumnezeu pentru aceasta generatie. Nu cu cerneala. In vechime, scrisorile erau de obicei scrise pe papirus, cu o penita de trestie si un pigment negru drept cerneala (vezi 2 Ioan 12). Scrisorile lui Pavel catre biserici au fost fara indoiala scrise in felul acesta. Dar cand e vorba de scrisul pe tablele inimii omenesti, adica in minte, se cere un mijloc mai durabil, iar acesta este Duhul viului Dumnezeu. Acolo unde Duhul Sfant e la lucru, Legea lui Dumnezeu si adevarul Sau sunt manifestate prin sfintenie, ascultare si curatire. Ascultarea de voia lui Dumnezeu devine ceva natural. Scrisul despre care vorbeste aici Pavel influenteaza nu numai intelectul, ci si vointa si sentimentele (Psalmi 1,2; 119,26). Adversarii apostolului, iudaizantii, nu scrisesera astfel de scrisori in inimile corintenilor, asa cum facuse Pavel. Lucrarea lor se marginea la litera legii. Ei erau preocupati aproape exclusiv de formele ei exterioare, dar spiritul legii nu fusese niciodata imprimate in inimile lor. Ceea ce nu putea realiza legalismul iudaic – din cauza lipsei de credinta a celor care-l practicau (Evrei 4,2) – savarsea acum Evanghelia (Romani 8,3.4). O aderare formala la litera iudaismului nu transfera principiile adevarului in inima oamenilor. Practica iudaica a religiei ramanea formala si mecanica, lipsindu-i spiritul. Table de piatra. Sau ,,tablite de piatra”. Pavel pune in contrast cele doua table de piatra pe care Dumnezeu scrisese Cele Zece Porunci la Sinai cu tablitele de carne ale inimii. Nu era nimic rau in a avea Legea lui Dumnezeu scrisa pe table de piatra, dar atata vreme cat era scrisa numai acolo si nu era transferata pe tablele de carne ale inimii oamenilor, ea ramanea o litera moarta pentru toate scopurile practice. Adevarul are o forta vie, activa numai cand e aplicat la problemele vietii. Pavel anticipeaza aici discutia despre noul legamant, din v. 6-11. Experienta noului legamant e amintita in pasaje ale Scripturii ca Ieremia 31,31-33; Ezechiel 11,19.20; 36,26.27; Evrei 8,8-10. Numai Dumnezeu are puterea de a ajunge la inima omului si de a scrie Legea Sa acolo. E mai usor pentru El sa scrie Legea Sa pe table de piatra, deoarece ele nu au putere sa se opuna. Odata ce Legea e scrisa in inima, ea nu mai este o litera moarta. Hartia si piatra sunt perisabile. Nu tot asa e cu Legea scrisa in inima si in viata. Moise a coborat de pe Sinai purtand cele doua placi de piatra, o dovada vizibila ca fusese cu Dumnezeu, si a aparut ca purtator de cuvant al lui Dumnezeu, randuit de El. Desi scrisorile de acreditare ale lui Pavel nu era intr-o forma concreta, pe hartie, ele nu erau mai putin reale, deoarece aceeasi Lege divina fusese inscrisa de Duhul Sfant in propria sa inima si in inima convertitilor sai. Pavel nu avea nevoie de alte scrisori de acreditare. Viata lui si viata acelora pe care ii condusese la Hristos constituia dovada suficienta ca insarcinarea lui era de la Dumnezeu. |

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).
