Printable ModeLevitic 6:4
|
6:4 cand va pacatui astfel si se va face vinovat, sa dea inapoi lucrul luat cu sila sau luat prin inselaciune, sau incredintat lui, sau lucrul pierdut pe care l-a gasit, Sa dea inapoi. Deoarece in toate cazurile acestea se cere restituirea, Dumnezeu prescrie pentru fiecare o pedeapsa echitabila. Mai intai vine marturisirea, apoi restituirea. Aceasta trebuia sa fie facuta ,,in ziua cand isi va aduce jertfa lui pentru vina” (v.5); cu alte cuvinte, restituirea trebuie sa insoteasca marturisirea. Ea nu putea fi amanata. Restituirea este o parte vitala a programului pe care Dumnezeu il pune in fata omului care doreste sa fie liber de vina pacatului sau. Convingerea de pacat nu este de ajuns, regretarea pacatului nu este suficienta, marturisirea nu este indestulatoare. Ele trebuie sa fie insotite de o pocainta atat de adanca si totala, incat sufletul sa nu afle odihna, pana nu va fi facut orice efort spre a repara greselile care au putut fi facute. In multe cazuri, acest fapt poate include si restituirea, plata cu dobanda a lucrului furat si depunerea oricarui efort spre a indrepta greselile. Roadele adevaratei pocainte la care i-a indemnat Ioan Botezatorul pe ascultatorii sai cuprindeau si restituirea (Matei 3,8). ,,Nelegiuirile” cuprind tranzactii de afaceri indoielnice, reprezentarea frauduloasa a valori, efectele rele fara falsificare reala, deformare intentionata si orice profit asupra celui sarac sau nenorocit. ,,Nelegiuirile” cuprind poveri exorbitante de orice fel, dobanda excesiva asupra imprumuturilor, lucru necinstit pentru leafa primita. Procedeul multor oameni de a se lauda cu perspicacitatea lor in afaceri, primind aprobarea si lauda altora pentru priceperea lor in negocieri, nu este aprobat in cer (Habacuc 2,6). Din cauza aceasta si a multor altor lucruri, restituirea trebuie sa fie facuta oriunde este posibil. Acolo unde nu se poate face, este bine a se urma instructiunea din vechime si ,,lucrul acela sa se intoarca la Domnul, la preot” (Numeri 5,8). Aplicarea de astazi a acestei instructiuni ar cere ca banii in discutie sa fie dati si folositi in lucrarea Domnului. Sunt vremuri cand procedeul de a da faliment este recomandabil. In felul acesta, debitorul este eliberat legal de obligatiile sale. Dar crestinul este obligat fata de cer sa dea o atentie deosebita raspunderii sale fata de oricine poate fi privat de ce i se datoreaza. El trebuie sa aiba o constiinta sensibila si sa actioneze in mod cinstit atat fata de Dumnezeu, cat si fata de oameni. In unele cazuri, omeni din lume au facut restituiri si au fost onorati. Oriunde este posibil, crestinii trebuie sa faca acelasi lucru. Minciuna este astazi unul dintre pacatele cele mai raspandite si, in mod treptat, ajunge sa fie considerata respectabila. In formele ei diferite, intinzandu-se de la minciuna indrazneata, fatisa, pana la magulitoarea minciuna diplomatica sau sociala, ,,minciuna sfruntata” se practica din obicei si in mod universal. In formele ei mai dulci, ea este considerata ca un mijloc necesar de indulcire a unei situatii neplacute si este trecuta cu vederea ca o forma de vorbire acceptata. A minti gratios si convingator este un talent social si politic deosebit si este considerat o lucrare necesara pentru pastrarea unor anumite pozitii. O minciuna este o falsitate rostita sau facuta cu intentia de a insela. Este negarea adevarului. Tatal minciunilor este creatorul ei, reputatiile distruse si caracterele ruinate sunt copiii ei. Ea face ca albul sa arate ca negrul, si negrul ca albul (Isaia 5,20), ea desparte soti si sotii, iubiti si prieteni, ea da nastere la razboi si omoara milioane, ea impietreste constiinta, nimiceste increderea si credinta, este tovarasa hotilor, a jucatorilor de noroc, a prostituatelor si a betivilor. Ea manjeste tot ce atinge si este vrajmasa a tot ce este nobil, adevarat si curat. Acela care ,,iubeste si traieste in minciuna” se va afla pana la urma afara din cetate, impreuna cu ,,cainii, vrajitorii, curvarii, ucigasii si inchinatorii a idoli” (Apocalipsa 22,15). Biblia este clara cu privire la subiectul adevarului. Ea nu ingaduie nimic altceva. Dumnezeu este ,,Dumnezeul adevarului” (Isaia 65,16; Psalmi 31,5; Deutronom 32,4). Fiul este adevarul (Ioan 14,6). Duhul este adevarul (1 Ioan 5,6). Cuvantul este adevarul (Ioan 17,17). Legea este adevarul (Psalmi 119,142). Toate lucrarile lui Dumnezeu sunt adevar (Daniel 4,37). Sfaturile Lui sunt adevar (Isaia 25,1). Judecata este adevar (Romani 2,2). Ierusalimul este cetatea adevarului (Zaharia 8,3). Biserica este stalpul si temelia adevarului (1 Timotei 3,15). Crestinii trebuie sa ajunga la cunostinta adevarului (1 Timotei 2,4). Cei care nu cred adevarul vor fi condamnati (2 Tesaloniceni 2,12). Dumnezeu nu doreste numai o conformare exterioara fata de adevar, El doreste adevarul ,,inauntru”, in inima (Psalmi 51,6; 15,2). Pe crestin trebuie sa-l motiveze o pasiune pentru adevar. El este un reprezentant al Dumnezeului adevarului si nu trebuie sa aduca o marturie mincinoasa in nici o privinta. Inainte de toate, el trebuie sa iubeasca adevarul, pentru ca acesta este care il face liber (Ioan 8,32). Ajungand la cunostinta adevarului (1 Timotei 2,4), prin ascultare de adevar (1 Petru 1,22), el urmeaza sa fie sfintit prin adevar (Ioan 5,12). Duhul il va calauzi in tot adevarul (Ioan 18,37). Marturia lui despre adevar va fi in dragoste (Efeseni 4,15) si iubirea lui va fi iubirea adevarului (2 Tesaloniceni 2,10). O persoana care este plina de iubirea adevarului va fi credincioasa in toate relatiile vietii. Ea va uri si se va feri de orice prefacatorie si ipocrizie, motivele lui nu vor fi niciodata indoielnice. Da al lui va fi da, si nu al lui va fi nu (Iacov 5,12). El nu se va mandri cu sinceritatea lui, nici nu va rani fara a fi necesar simtamintele altcuiva, ci va indrepta cu blandete ,,pe potrivnici” (2 Timotei 2,25). El va avea reputatia de a fi un om in al carui cuvant te poti increde. |

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).
