Printable ModeRomani 3:20

3:20 Caci nimeni nu va fi socotit neprihanit inaintea Lui, prin faptele Legii, deoarece prin Lege vine cunostinta deplina a pacatului. Caci. [,,de aceea”, KJV]. Mai degraba ,,pentru ca”. Ceea ce urmeaza introduce motivul pentru care fiecare gura va fi inchisa si toata lumea va fi socotita ca trebuie sa dea socoteala lui Dumnezeu (vers. 19). Nimeni. [,,nici un trup”, KJV]. Adica nici o fiinta omeneasca. Fara indoiala ca Pavel face aluzie la Psalmul 143,2. Socotit neprihanit. [,,a face neprihanit”, KJV]. Gr. dikaioo, ,,a aseza neprihanit”, ,,a considera ca e neprihanit”, ,,a declara ca e neprihanit”, ,,a trata ca fiind neprihanit”, ,,a prezenta ca neprihanit”. Cuvantul apare de 39 de ori in Noul Testament, 27 din acestea fiind in scrierile lui Pavel. Insemnatatea lui dikaioo e uneori umbrita prin traducerea ,,a face neprihanit”. In limba greaca dikaioo, ,, a face neprihanit”, dikaios, ,,neprihanit”, dikaiosune, ,,neprihanire” sunt toate construite pe aceesi radacina si legatura dintre ele este clar vazuta. Asa cum e folosit in Noul Testament cu referire la fiintele omenesti, a face neprihanit arata actul prin care o persoana e adusa intr-o situatie dreapta in legatura cu Dumnezeu. Prin actul acesta, Dumnezeu achita un om care este vinovat de o fapta rea sau trateaza ca neprihanit pe cineva care este nelegiuit. Inseamna anularea acuzatiilor care se gasesc impotriva credinciosului la curtea cereasca. ,,Daca te predai Lui si-l primeste ca Mantuitor, atunci oricat de pacatoasa ar fi fost viata ta, din consideratie pentru El, tu esti socotit neprihanit” (SC 62; vezi cap. 3,28; 4,25; 5,1). Prin faptele Legii. Literal, ,,din lucrari ale legii”, adica lucrari aratate de lege. In limba greaca, ,,lege” este fara articol (vezi cap. 2,12). Pavel afirma un adevar general care e aplicabil atat grecilor, cat si iudeilor. Indreptatirea prin faptele legii a fost temelia oricarui sistem religios fals si a devenit chiar si principiul religiei iudaice (DA 35, 36). Dar faptele savarsite in ascultare de oricare lege, fie ca legea aceea e facuta cunoscut prin ratiune, constiinta sau descoperire [revelatie], nu pot indreptati un pacatos inaintea lui Dumnezeu (Gal 3,2). Pavel a aratat deja ca neamurile calcasera legea descoperita lor in natura si in constiinta (Rom 1). La fel el a dovedit ca iudeii calcasera legea descoperita lor in Vechiul Testament si mai ales in Cele zece porunci (cap. 2). Si iudeul si cel dintre neamuri au aceeasi nevoie de indreptatire. Dar legea nu are putere sa indreptateasca. Ea poate numai sa arate pacatosenia pacatului in adevaratele lui aspecte. Neprihanirea nu poate fi capatata decat pe o singura cale. Nu e contradictie intre cele afirmate in cap. 2,13, ,,cei ce implinesc legea vor fi socotiti neprihaniti [drepti]” si pasajul acesta, ,,nimeni nu va fi socotit neprihanit [neprihanit] inaintea Lui, prin faptele legii”. Primul subliniaza faptul ca vor fi indreptatiti numai cei care se predau in asa masura lui Dumnezeu incat sunt dispusi sa implineasca orice porunceste El, in felul acesta fiind nu numai ,,auzitori ai Legii”. Al doilea accentueaza faptul la fel de adevarat ca faptele bune de ascultare nu pot, in nici un caz, sa cumpere mantuirea. Ele pot, in cel mai bun caz, sa fie dovada credintei prin care e capatata indreptatirea. Prin lege. In versiunea greaca, expresia nu este articulata (vezi cap. 2,12). Cunostinta. Gr. epignosis, un termen care inseamna clar si exact cunoastere (vezi Rom 1,28; 10,2; Efes 4,13), un cuvantul obisnuit pentru cunostinta (gnosis). Legea este norma faptelor neprihanite, si orice nu ajunge sa corespunda legii este pacat, deoarece pacatul este nelegiuire, neascultare de lege (1 Ioan 3,4). Cu cat cineva ajunge sa cunoasca mai bine acest standard, cu atat mai mult ii vor fi sporite constienta si simtul pacatului. Aceasta este cauza pentru care omul nu poate fi indreptatit prin faptele legii. In ce priveste indreptatirea, legea a facut tot ce a putut cand pacatosul a fost adus pe punctul de a exclama: ,,O, nenorocitul de mine! Cine ma va izbavi de acest trup de moarte?” (vezi Rom 7,24). Legea tine oglinda in fata vinovatului, dar nu poate sa indeparteze vinovatia. Versetul acesta, impreuna cu afirmatia lui Pavel ca legea urmeaza sa ne duca la Hristos (Gal 3,24), arata clar legatura dintre lege si Evanghelie. Evanghelia, in nici un caz, nu a inlaturat functia necesara a legii. Doctrina indreptatirii prin credinta ,,prezinta Legea si Evanghelia, legandu-le pe cele doua intr-un tot desavarsit” (TM 94). |

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).
