Printable ModeLuca 16:16
|
16:16 Legea si prorocii au tinut pana la Ioan; de atunci incoace, Evanghelia Imparatiei lui Dumnezeu se propovaduieste: si fiecare, ca sa intre in ea, da navala. Legea si proorocii. Adica, scrierile canonice ale VT (vezi Matei 5,17; 7,12; 22,40; Luca 24,27.44; Fapte 13,15; 28,23; vezi la Luca 24,44). Pana la Ioan. Adica, Ioan Botezatorul. ,,Pana la” predicarea ,,Imparatiei lui Dumnezeu” de catre Ioan, scrierile sacre ale VT constituiau calauza principala spre mantuire a omului (vezi Romani 3,1.2). Cuvantul ,,pana la” (Gr. mechri) nu implica in nici un caz – asa cum unii traducatori superficiali ai Scripturii ar vrea ca noi sa credem – ca ,,Legea si proorocii”, Scripturile VT si-au pierdut in vreun fel valoarea sau forta cand Ioan a inceput sa predice. Ceea ce vrea sa spuna Isus aici inseamna ca, pana la lucrarea lui Ioan, ,,Legea si proorocii” erau tot ce aveau oamenii. Evanghelia a venit nu pentru a inlocui sau pentru a anula ceea ce scrisesera Moise si proorocii, ci pentru a completa, a reintari, a confirma aceste scrieri (vezi la Matei 5,17-19). Evanghelia nu sta in locul VT, ci este un adaos la el. Acesta este clar sensul in care mechri (tradus si ,,la”) este folosit in pasajele din Scripturi ca Matei 28,15 si Romani 5,14. In tot NT nu e nici un caz in care VT sa fie depreciat in vreun fel oarecare. Dimpotriva, credinciosii NT au gasit tocmai in Scripturile VT cea mai puternica confirmare a credintei lor; de fapt, VT era singura Biblie pe care o poseda biserica primei generatii NT (vezi la Ioan 5,39). Ei nu il dispretuiau, asa cum fac astazi unii din cei care se numesc crestini, ci il onorau si il indrageau. De fapt, tocmai cu ocazia aceasta Isus a scos in evidenta scrierile VT ca indestulatoare pentru a calauzi pe oameni spre cer (vezi Luca 16,29-31). Aceia care invata ca Scripturile VT sunt fara valoare sau autoritate pentru crestin, invata contrar invataturii lui Hristos. Pavel afirma ca invataturile sale nu se indepartau ,,cu nimic de la ceea ce au spus proorocii si Moise ca are sa se intample” (Fapte 26,22). In invatatura lui, Pavel se referea staruitor la ,,Legea lui Moise” si la ,,Prooroci” (vezi Fapte 28,23). In Predica de pe Munte Isus a lamurit ca invataturile Sale nu au inlaturat in nici un fel pe cele ale VT. El declara emfatic ca n-a venit sa scoata din Scripturile VT nici cea mai mica ,,iota” sau ,,frantura de slova” (vezi la Matei 5,18). Cand a declarat ,,dar Eu va spun” (vezi la v. 22), contrastul pe care l-a facut intre invataturile VT si invataturile Sale nu era intentionat sa diminueze valoarea sau importanta celor dintai, ci sa le elibereze de conceptiile inguste ale iudeilor din vremea Sa, sa le amplifice si sa le intareasca. De atunci incoace. De la proclamarea imparatiei lui Dumnezeu de catre Ioan Botezatorul, mai multa lumina stralucise pe cararea mantuirii, iar Fariseii nu aveau nici un fel de scuza pentru a fi ,,lacomi” (vezi la v. 14). Fusese destula lumina pentru ei in VT (vezi v. 29-31), dar ei respinsesera lumina aceea (vezi Ioan5,45-47); acum ei au luat aceeasi atitudine fata de lumina sporita care se revarsa prin viata si invataturile lui Isus (vezi Ioan 1,4; 14,6). Fiecare. Probabil Isus Se refera aici la vastele multimi care Il urmau oriunde Se ducea in Perea (vezi la cap. 12,1; 14,25; 15,1). Era un interes grozav de mare, desi uneori rau condus, fata de El personal si fata de invataturile si minunile Lui. Dand navala. [,,Preseaza”, KJV]. Gr. biazo, ,, a folosi forta” sau ,,a aplica forta”. Vezi la Matei 11,12.13 pentru o discutie a intelesului lui Luca 16,16. |

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).
