26:1 Cap. 25 - Talantii 26:2 (Capitol bazat pe textele din Matei 25, 13-30) 26:3 Pe Muntele Maslinilor, Domnul Hristos a vorbit ucenicilor Sai despre a doua Sa venire aici, pe pamant. El a enumerat unele semne ce aveau sa se arate in apropierea revenirii Sale si a cerut ucenicilor Sai sa vegheze si sa fie gata. El a repetat iarasi avertizarea: "Vegheati, dar, caci nu stiti ziua, nici ceasul in care va veni Fiul omului". Matei 25,13. Apoi, El a aratat ce inseamna a veghea in vederea revenirii Sale. Timpul nu trebuie petrecut intr-o asteptare inactiva, lenesa, ci lucrand cu zel, cu sarguinta. Aceasta este lectia pe care El vrea s-o invatam din parabola cu talantii. 26:4 "Imparatia cerurilor", spunea El, "se va asemana cu un om care, cand era sa plece intr-o alta tara, a chemat pe robii sai si le-a incredintat avutia sa. Unuia i-a dat cinci talanti, altuia doi, si altuia unul; fiecaruia dupa puterea lui,... si a plecat". Matei 25, 14-l5. 26:5 Omul care a plecat intr-o tara indepartata, reprezinta pe Domnul Hristos 26:6 care, atunci cand a rostit aceasta parabola, era aproape de timpul sa plece de pe acest pamant, la ceruri. "Slujitorii" sau robii din parabola reprezinta pe urmasii Domnului Hristos. Noi nu suntem ai nostri. Noi am fost "cumparati cu un pret" (1 Corinteni 6,20), nu "cu lucruri pieritoare, cu argint sau cu aur... ci cu sangele scump al lui Hristos" (1 Petru l, 18-l9)... "pentru ca cei ce traiesc, sa nu mai traiasca pentru ei insisi, ci pentru Cel ce a murit si a inviat pentru ei". 2 Corinteni 5, 15. 26:7 Toti oamenii au fost cumparati cu un pret nespus de mare. Revarsand intreaga comoara a cerului in aceasta lume, dandu-ne intreg cerul in Hristos, Dumnezeu a cumparat vointa, afectiunea, mintea, sufletul si intreaga fiinta omeneasca. Fie ca cineva este credincios sau necredincios, toti oamenii sunt proprietatea lui Dumnezeu. Toti sunt chemati sa lucreze pentru El si, dupa felul in care ei implinesc aceasta chemare, toti vor trebui sa dea socoteala in ziua cea mare a judecatii. 26:8 Dar cerintele lui Dumnezeu nu sunt recunoscute de catre toti. In parabola, aceia care au declarat ca au acceptat sa lucreze pentru Hristos sunt infatisati ca fiind slujitorii Sai. 26:9 Urmasii Domnului Hristos au fost rascumparati pentru slujire. Domnul ne invata ca scopul real al vietii este slujirea. Domnul Hristos a fost muncitor si tuturor urmasilor Sai le-a dat legea slujirii - slujirii lui Dumnezeu si a semenilor lor. Aici, Domnul Hristos a prezentat lumii cea mai inalta conceptie a vietii ce a fost cunoscuta vreodata. Traind pentru a sluji altora, omul este astfel adus in legatura cu Domnul Hristos. Legea slujirii devine veriga de legatura ce ne leaga de Dumnezeu si de semenii nostri. 26:10 Slujitorilor Sai, Domnul Hristos le incredinteaza "avutia Sa" - ceva ce trebuie sa fie pus la schimbator, pentru El. El da "fiecarui om lucrarea sa". Fiecare are locul sau in planul cel vesnic al cerului. Fiecare trebuie sa lucreze in colaborare cu Domnul Hristos pentru 26:11 mantuirea celor pacatosi. Dupa cum este sigur ca avem pregatit un loc in locasurile din ceruri, tot atat de sigur este si faptul ca, aici pe pamant, avem hotarat un loc anumit unde sa lucram pentru Dumnezeu. 26:12 Darurile Duhului Sfant 26:13 Talantii, pe care Domnul Hristos i-a incredintat Bisericii Sale, reprezinta - in mod deosebit - darurile si binecuvantarile date oamenilor de catre Duhul Sfant. "De pilda, unuia ii este dat, prin Duhul, sa vorbeasca despre intelepciune; altuia, sa vorbeasca despre cunostinta, datorita aceluiasi Duh; altuia, credinta, prin acelasi Duh; altuia, darul tamaduirilor, prin acelasi Duh; altuia, puterea sa faca minuni; altuia, proorocia; altuia, deosebirea duhurilor; altuia, felurite limbi; si altuia, talmacirea limbilor. Dar toate aceste lucruri le face unul si acelasi Duh, care da fiecaruia in parte, cum voieste", 1 Corinteni 12, 8-11. Nu toti oamenii primesc aceleasi daruri, dar fiecarui slujitor al lui Dumnezeu ii este fagaduit un dar al Duhului Sfant. 26:14 Mai inainte de a parasi pe ucenicii Sai, Domnul Hristos "a suflat peste ei si le-a zis: 'Luati Duh Sfant'". Ioan 20,22. De asemenea, El a zis: "Iata ca voi trimite peste voi fagaduinta Tatalui Meu". Luca 24,49. Dar darul Duhului Sfant n-a fost primit in plinatatea lui decat numai dupa inaltarea Domnului la cer. Revarsarea Duhului Sfant n-a avut loc decat atunci cand ucenicii, prin credinta si rugaciune, s-au predat pe deplin lucrarii Sale. Atunci, intr-un mod deosebit, bunurile cerului au fost incredintate urmasilor Domnului Hristos. "De aceea este zis: 'S-a suit sus, a luat robia roaba si a dat daruri oamenilor'". Efeseni 4,8.7. "Dar toate aceste lucruri le face unul si acelasi Duh, care da fiecaruia in parte, cum voieste", 1 Corinteni 12,11. Darurile sunt deja ale noastre, in Hristos Isus, dar luarea lor in stapanire depinde de primirea - de catre noi - a Duhului Sfant. 26:15 Fagaduinta Duhului Sfant nu este apreciata asa cum ar trebui sa fie. Implinirea ei nu se realizeaza asa cum ar fi putut sa fie. Lipsa Duhului Sfant este aceea care face ca lucrarea Evangheliei sa fie atat de lipsita de putere. Cineva poate sa aiba invatatura, talente, elocventa si orice alt dar natural sau dobandit; dar fara prezenta Duhului lui Dumnezeu, nici o inima nu va fi atinsa, si nici un pacatos nu va fi castigat la Hristos. Pe de alta parte, daca ei sunt legati de Hristos si daca darurile Duhului Sfant le sunt date, atunci, cei mai saraci si cei mai nestiutori dintre ucenicii Sai, vor avea o putere care va castiga inimile. Dumnezeu ii face canale prin care sa se reverse cele mai inalte influente asupra Universului. |

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).
