40:1 3. FORMAREA TIPARELOR COMPORTAMENTULUI 40:2 Inceput din copilarie. - Parintii sa inceapa chiar din camin cruciada impotriva necumpatarii, prin principiile pe care isi invata copiii sa le 40:3 urmeze inca din pruncie si atunci pot spera sa aiba succes. - Testimonies, vol. 3, pag. 567. 40:4 Educare insistenta. - Invatati-va copiii inca din leagan sa practice renuntarea de sine si autocontrolul... Imprimati in mintea lor frageda adevarul ca Dumnezeu n-a desemnat ca noi sa traim doar pentru satisfacerea prezenta de sine, ci pentru un scop anume, invatati-i ca cedarea la ispita inseamna slabiciune si rau, si ca a rezista ispitei este nobil si uman. Aceste lectii vor fi ca niste seminte semanate in pamant bun si vor aduce roada care va va bucura inima. - The Ministry of Healing, pag. 386. 40:5 Importanta unui inceput timpuriu. - Importanta acordata educarii timpurii a copiilor nu poate fi niciodata prea multa. Lectiile invatate si obiceiurile formate in anii prunciei si ai copilariei au mai multa importanta in formarea caracterului si directionarea vietii decat o are toata invatatura si pregatirea din anii ce urmeaza. - The Ministry of Healing, pag. 380. 40:6 Influenta extinsa a obiceiurilor timpurii. - In mare masura, caracterul este format in anii timpurii ai vietii. Obiceiurile fixate atunci au mai multa influenta decat orice inzestrare naturala in formarea oamenilor, fie ca uriasi ai inteligentei, fie ca pitici; pentru ca si cele mai mari talente pot, prin obiceiuri rele, degenera. Cu cat mai de timpuriu isi formeaza cineva obiceiuri daunatoare, cu atat mai strans isi vor tine acestea victima in robie si cu atat mai sigur ii vor cobori standardul de spiritualitate. - Counsels on Health, pag. 112, 113. 40:7 Dificultatea dezvatului obiceiurilor formate. - Cel mai greu lucru este sa dezradacinezi obiceiurile ingaduite de-a lungul vietii. Demonul necumpatarii are o putere uriasa si nu se invinge usor... Se merita, mame, sa dedicati pretioasele ore care va sunt date de Dumnezeu formarii caracterului copiilor vostri si invatarii lor sa adere cu strictete 40:8 la principiile cumpatarii in mancare si bautura. - Christian Temperance and Bible Hygiene, pag. 79. 40:9 Cultivarea de timpuriu a poftei pentru alcool. - Invatati-va copiii sa deteste stimulentele. Cat de multi oameni sunt ignoranti si cultiva la copiii lor un apetit pentru aceste lucruri! Am vazut in Europa surori medicale ducand paharul cu vin sau bere la buzele micutilor nevinovati, cultivand astfel in ei gustul pentru stimulente. Crescand mai mari, ei se invata sa depinda din ce in ce mai mult de aceste lucruri pana ce, putin cate putin, sunt coplesiti si imposibil de ajutat, ajungand, in final, in mormantul betivului. - Counsels on Diet and Foods, pag. 235. 40:10 Primii trei ani - Lasati ca egoismul, mania si dorinta satisfacerii de sine sa-si urmeze cursul in primii trei ani din viata copilului si va fi greu apoi sa-l aduceti sub o totala disciplina. Inclinatia vietii lui a devenit corupta, gasindu-si placerile in caile proprii si dezgustul fata de controlul parintesc. Aceste tendinte rele cresc o data cu dezvoltarea copilului pana cand, la maturitate, egoismul extrem si lipsa autocontrolului il vor lasa in voia relelor care abunda in tara noastra. - Health Reformer, aprilie 1887. 40:11 Apasatoarea responsabilitate a parintilor. - Cat de greu este sa obtii biruinta asupra apetitului odata format! Cat de important este ca parintii sa-si creasca copiii cu gusturi curate si un apetit nepervertit! Ei trebuie sa nu uite niciodata ca peste ei apasa raspunderea formarii copiilor lor, astfel incat sa aiba taria morala de a rezista raului care-i inconjoara, atunci cand vor iesi in lume. 40:12 Hristos nu I-a cerut Tatalui Sau sa-i scoata pe ucenici din mijlocul lumii, ci sa-i fereasca de raul din lume, sa-i fereasca de cedarea la ispitele pe care aveau sa le intalneasca la orice pas. Aceasta rugaciune trebuie sa o inalte tatii si mamele pentru copiii lor. Dar se vor ruga ei 40:13 lui Dumnezeu, pentru ca apoi sa-si lase copiii sa faca ceea ce vor? Dumnezeu nu-i poate feri pe copii de rau, daca parintii nu coopereaza cu El. Acestia trebuie sa-si faca lucrarea curajos si cu bucurie, ducand-o inainte fara ezitare. - Review and Herald, 9 iulie 1901. 40:14 Cei care ingaduie apetitul copilului si nu-l invata sa-si stapaneasca pasiunile pot, mai tarziu, sa vada, in sclavul iubirii pentru tutun si alcool, ale carui simturi sunt paralizate si ale carui buze rostesc minciuna si blasfemie, groaznica greseala pe care au facut-o. - Counsels on Health, pag. 114. 40:15 Formarea caracterului pentru a se opune ispitei. - Primii pasi spre necumpatare sunt, de obicei, facuti in copilarie sau la inceputul adolescentei. Copilului i se dau alimente excitante, desteptandu-i-se dorinte nenaturale. Acest apetit stricat este satisfacut pe masura ce se dezvolta. Gusturile devin incontinuu mai pervertite si sunt dorite si oferite stimulente mai puternice pana ce, in scurta vreme, sclavul poftelor da la o parte orice restrictie. Raul a inceput timpuriu in viata si ar fi putut fi prevenit de catre parinti. Observam eforturi mari facute in tara noastra pentru a se combate necumpatarea, dar dominarea si punerea in lant a leului puternic si bine crescut se dovedeste a fi o treaba grea. 40:16 Daca jumatate din eforturile depuse pentru a se opri acest urias rau ar fi directionate spre luminarea parintilor in ceea ce priveste responsabilitatea lor in formarea obiceiurilor si a caracterelor copiilor lor, ar putea rezulta un bine inmiit fata de cursul prezent, de simpla combatere a raului ajuns la apogeu. Apetitul nenatural pentru bauturi alcoolice este creat in camin, de multe ori chiar la masa celor mai zelosi conducatori de campanii pentru temperanta... 40:17 Parintii n-ar trebui sa priveasca usor lucrarea de formare a copiilor lor. Ei trebuie sa petreaca mult timp in studiu atent al legilor care ne oranduiesc viata. Ei trebuie sa faca obiectul primordial de studiu din felul in care se ocupa de copiii lor pentru a putea sa le asigure minti 40:18 sanatoase in corpuri sanatoase. Prea multi parinti sunt ghidati de obiceiuri in locul ratiunii sanatoase si al cerintelor lui Dumnezeu. Multi care se declara a fi urmasi ai lui Hristos sunt intristator de neglijenti fata de datoriile in camin. Ei nu percep sacra importanta a ceea ce Dumnezeu a incredintat mainilor lor - modelarea, de exemplu, a caracterelor copiilor lor, pentru ca acestia sa aiba taria morala, necesara pentru a rezista multelor ispite care prind in capcana piciorul tanarului. - Signs of the Times, 17 noiembrie 1890. 40:19 Incepeti din leagan. - Daca parintii si-ar fi facut datoria, punand pe masa alimente integrale, eliminand substantele iritante si stimulente si, in acelasi timp, invatandu-i pe copiii lor autocontrolul si educandu-le caracterele pentru fortificarea capacitatii morale, acum n-am mai fi avut de-a face cu leul necumpatarii. Dupa ce au fost formate obiceiuri ale necumpatarii, dezvoltate o data cu dezvoltarea copilului si consolidate o data cu maturizarea lui, cat de greu le este celor care n-au fost corect educati in tinerete sa scape de obiceiurile lor gresite si sa se invete sa-si puna frau, lor si apetitului lor nenatural. Cat de greu este sa-i inveti pe astfel de tineri si sa-i faci sa simta nevoia unei temperante crestine, cand ajung maturi! Lectiile de temperanta trebuie sa inceapa din vremea cand copilul se afla in leagan. - Review and Herald, 11 mai 1876. 40:20 Ultima confruntare. - Cand copii si parinti se vor intalni la darea de seama finala, ce scena va avea loc! Mii de copii care au fost robi ai apetitului si viciului, ale caror vieti sunt niste ruine morale, vor sta fata in fata cu parintii, care i-au facut ceea ce sunt. Cine altii decat parintii trebuie sa poarte aceasta infricosatoare raspundere? I-a stricat Domnul pe acesti tineri? O, nu! El i-a facut dupa chipul Lui, putin mai prejos decat ingerii. - Testimonies, vol. 3, pag. 568. |

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).
