98:1 STATI APROAPE DE OAMENI 98:2 Ritmul nostru nu trebuie sa fie mai rapid decat puterea de urmarire a acelora care sunt convinsi din punctul de vedere intelectual si emotional de adevarurile pe care noi le sustinem. Noi trebuie sa-i abordam pe oameni acolo unde sunt. Multora dintre noi ne-a trebuit multi ani ca sa ajungem la nivel acesta in reforma in domeniul sanatatii. Reforma in dieta inainteaza destul de greu pentru ca apetitul pe care trebuie sa-l invingem este foarte puternic. Lumea zace in lacomie. Ar trebui sa fim la fel de ingaduitori cu acesti oameni cum am fost si noi insine lasandu-le cel putin atat timp cat ne-a trebuit si noua sa ajungem la nivelul la care suntem. Sa-i ajutam sa inainteze pas cu pas pana cand ei vor sta tari pe platforma acestei reforme. Trebuie sa fim foarte atenti pentru a nu avea un ritm prea mare, 98:3 pentru ca altfel va trebui sa parcurgem de doua ori acelasi drum. In ceea ce priveste reformele este intotdeauna mai bine sa fii cu un pas inapoi decat cu un pas inainte. 98:4 Dar in primul rand, inainte de a scrie despre un anumit lucru, trebuie ca acesta sa fie valabil in familie noastre si sa se vada si in dieta. Altfel ar insemna ca ne ascundem, ceea ce ar fi tot un soi de fatarnicie. 98:5 Distribuirea periodicelor 98:6 Review and Herald si Signs of the Times. - Unii au facut greseala de a reduce preturile revistelor pentru a raspunde unor dificultati financiare din partea cumparatorilor. Nu trebuia actionat asa in ciuda faptului sa nu contestam sinceritatea acelora care au facut-o. Ei gandeau ca generozitatea lor ii va determina pe pastori si pe membri laici sa lucreze mai mult pentru a creste nevoia pentru aceste publicatii. 98:7 Atat pastorii cat si membrii laici ar trebui sa aiba o atitudine corecta si generozitate fata de casele de editura. In loc sa depuna toate eforturile pentru ieftinirea pretului cartilor, tratatelor si revistelor, ei ar trebui sa se straduiasca sa-i convinga pe oameni de adevarata valoare a publicatiilor noastre. Toti acesti banuti cu care s-a ieftinit pretul publicatiilor au cauzat editurilor pierderi de mii de dolari, cand de fapt ieftinirea nu a fost prea mare pentru a fi semnificativa pentru cineva. 98:8 Atat Review and Herald cat si Signs of the Times sunt reviste destul de ieftine. Dar Review este o revista foarte valoroasa pentru ca articolele din cuprinsul ei prezinta un interes deosebit pentru biserica si fiecare familie de credinciosi ar trebui sa o aiba. Daca unii sunt prea saraci pentru a le cumpara, comunitatile ar trebui sa stranga bani si sa le dea acestor familii sarace posibilitatea de a avea aceste reviste. 98:9 O astfel de actiune ar fi mult mai inteleapta decat dacaa a-i lasa pe saraci la mila editurilor si a societatilor misionare. 98:10 Se poate intreprinde acelasi lucru si cu revista Signs. Cu usoare modificari, revista a inregistrat o crestere continua in ceea ce priveste interesul si valorile morale promovate de la infiintarea ei. Aceste reviste au acelasi scop. Ele sunt doua unelte cu aplicabilitate specifica in aceasta mare lucrare de raspandire a luminii in vederea pregatirii pentru Ziua Domnului. Trebuie manifestat acelasi interes pentru sustinerea ambelor publicatii. 98:11 EXTINDETI ARIA DE ACOPERIRE. - Fratii ar trebui sa faca eforturi mai mari pentru extinderea ariei de acoperire a revistei Review. Acest lucru este posibil daca fratii si surorile noastre ar manifesta o mai mare seriozitate si ar depune eforturi mai sustinute. Revista ar trebui sa existe in fiecare familie. Daca aceia care nu se bucura saptamanal de prezenta sa ar renunta luxul pe care si-l permit uneori cu cafea si ceai, ar avea destui bani pentru ca mesagerul luminii sa patrunda si in locuinta lor. Aproape fiecare familie cumpara unul sau mai multe ziare seculare, iar acestea contin in mod frecvent povesti de dragoste sau relatari pline de suspans despre crime si marsavii, lucruri care au un efect negativ asupra mintii acelora care el citesc. Aceia care aleg sa nu aiba revista pierd foarte mult. Hristos le poate adresa prin intermediul paginilor sale, avertismente, mustrari si sfaturi care le vor schimba modul de gandire, fiind ca painea vietii. |

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).
