12:1 PUNEREA LA PROBA A CREDINTEI NOASTRE 12:2 In aceasta vreme de incercare avem nevoie sa ne incurajam si sa ne mangaiem unii pe altii. Ispitele lui Satana sunt mai mari acum decat au fost vreodata in trecut, caci el stie ca are putina vreme si ca foarte curand fiecare caz va fi hotarat, fie pentru viata, fie pentru moarte. Nu ne putem permite acum sa ne scufundam sub povara descurajarii si a incercarilor. Trebuie sa ramanem neclintiti in toate necazurile si sa ne incredem cu totul in Atotputernicul Dumnezeu al lui Iacov. Domnul mi-a aratat ca harul Sau ne este suficient pentru a infrunta toate incercarile noastre. Si chiar daca ele sunt mai mari decat au fost vreodata in trecut, daca ne vom increde cu totul in Dumnezeu, putem birui orice ispita si iesi victoriosi prin harul Sau. 12:3 Daca vom birui incercarile noastre si vom obtine victoria asupra ispitelor lui Satana, atunci vom suporta incercarea credintei noastre, care este mai scumpa decat aurul si vom fi mai puternici si mai bine pregatiti s-o intampinam pe urmatoarea. Daca insa dezarmam si cedam ispitelor lui Satana, vom ajunge tot mai slabi si nu vom obtine nici o rasplata pentru incercarea aceea si nu vom fi atat de bine pregatiti pentru urmatoarea; in felul acesta, vom ajunge din ce in ce mai slabi, pana cand vom fi dusi in robie de Satana, ajungand la discretia lui. Trebuie sa avem asupra noastra intreaga armatura a lui Dumnezeu si sa fim gata in orice moment pentru o confruntare cu puterile intunericului. Cand ispitele si incercarile vin nestavilite peste noi, sa mergem la Dumnezeu si sa-I spunem in rugaciune toate chinurile noastre. El nu ne va lasa sa plecam cu sufletul pustiu, ci ne va da har si tarie pentru a birui si pentru a zdrobi puterea vrajmasului. O, daca ar putea vedea toti aceste lucruri in adevarata lor lumina si ar suferi greutatile ca niste buni soldati ai lui Isus! Atunci ar inainta Israel, tare in Dumnezeu si in puterea Sa nemasurat de mare. 12:4 Dumnezeu mi-a aratat ca a dat poporului Sau sa bea o cupa a amaraciunii, pentru a-i curata si lamuri. Este o inghititura amara, iar ei o pot face inca mai amara prin cartire, plangeri si nemultumiri. Dar cei care o primesc in felul acesta trebuie sa mai soarba o data, caci prima nu a avut efectul dorit asupra inimii. Si daca nici a doua nu isi face lucrarea, atunci ei trebuie sa mai soarba o data si inca o data, pana cand se va vedea efectul dorit, in caz contrar, fiind nevoie sa fie lasati necurati, cu o inima intinata. Am vazut ca aceasta cupa a amaraciunii poate fi indulcita prin rabdare, rezistenta si rugaciune si ca va avea efectul dorit asupra inimii celor care o primesc in acest mod, iar Dumnezeu va fi onorat si slavit. Nu este un lucru mic sa fii crestin, sa apartii lui Dumnezeu si sa fii aprobat de El. Domnul mi i-a aratat pe unii care marturisesc adevarul prezent, ale caror vieti nu corespund cu marturisirea lor. Ei au standardul evlaviei extrem de scazut si sunt departe de sfintenia biblica. Unii se angajeaza intr-o conversatie desarta si nepotrivita si altii cedeaza in fata ispitei de a inalta eul. Nu ne putem astepta sa ne facem poftele, sa vietuim si sa ne purtam cum se poarta oamenii din lume, sa avem placerile lor si sa ne bucuram de compania celor care sunt ai lumii pentru ca apoi sa domnim cu Hristos in slava. 12:5 Trebuie sa fim partasi cu Hristos la suferintele Sale aici, daca vrem sa ne bucuram de slava Sa in lumea cea noua. Daca vom cauta sa ne atingem propriul interes, daca vom studia cum sa ne implinim cel mai bine placerile, in loc de a cauta sa-I fim pe plac lui Dumnezeu si sa facem sa inainteze cauza Sa pretioasa - care sufera - Il vom dezonora pe Dumnezeu si lucrarea Sa pe care marturisim ca o iubim. Nu ne-a mai ramas decat putin timp in care sa lucram pentru Dumnezeu. Nimic nu ar trebui sa fie prea scump pentru a-l jertfi in scopul salvarii turmei risipite si sfasiate a lui Isus. Cei care fac acum un legamant cu Dumnezeu prin jertfa vor fi curand stransi si dusi acasa, pentru a se bucura de o rasplata bogata si a avea noua imparatie in veci de veci. 12:6 O, haideti sa traim cu totul pentru Domnul si sa aratam printr-o viata bine randuita si o conversatie evlavioasa ca am fost cu Isus si suntem urmasii Sai blanzi si umili. Trebuie sa lucram cat este inca ziua, caci la venirea noptii intunecate a necazului si suferintei va fi prea tarziu sa lucram pentru Dumnezeu. Isus Se afla in templul Sau sfant si va accepta acum jertfele noastre, rugaciunile si marturisirile greselilor si pacatelor noastre si va ierta toate faradelegile lui Israel, pentru a putea fi sterse inainte ca El sa iasa din Sanctuar. Cand Isus paraseste Sanctuarul, cei care sunt sfinti si fara prihana se vor sfinti si vor trai si mai departe in neprihanire; caci toate pacatele lor vor fi sterse atunci si ei vor primi sigiliul viului Dumnezeu. Dar cei care sunt nedrepti si intinati vor fi nedrepti si se vor intina si mai departe; caci atunci nu va mai fi un Mare Preot in Sanctuar, care sa prezinte jertfele lor, marturisirile si rugaciunile lor inaintea scaunului de domnie al Tatalui. De aceea, ceea ce trebuie facut pentru a salva sufletele de apropiata furtuna a maniei trebuie sa fie infaptuit inainte ca Isus sa paraseasca Sfanta Sfintelor din Sanctuarul ceresc. |

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).
