19:1 16. Homosexualitatea 19:2 [In 1977, Consiliul anual al Bisericii Adventiste de Ziua a Saptea a votat ca "perversiunile sexuale ordinare, inclusiv practicile homosexuale, sunt recunoscute ca o intrebuintare gresita a atributiilor sexuale si o incalcare a planului divin cu privire la casatorie. Acestea constituie motiv de divort." (General Action, pag. 10). Motivele pentru care o persoana poate fi indepartata din Biserica Adventista de Ziua a Saptea includ "practica homosexuala si alte perversiuni sexuale." [Manualul Bisericii Adventiste de Ziua a Saptea (revizuit, 1986), p. 162]] 19:3 Stricaciunea sodomita. O, cat de dezgustat este Dumnezeu de slabiciunea, lipsa de vitalitate si eforturi facute fara Hristos a unora dintre cei care pretind a fi slujitorii sai? Lucrarea lui Dumnezeu trebuie sa fie dusa inainte, cu putere, si in sus. Acest lucru nu poate fi realizat pana cand senzualitatea care intineaza intreaga fiinta omeneasca nu este indepartata din viata celor ce sustin ca sunt religiosi. Trebuie facuta aceasta lucrare. 19:4 Membrii bisericii trebuie sa posteasca si sa se roage cautand cu staruinta sa fie biruitori prin sangele Mielului si cuvantul marturiei lor. Nici un fel de intinaciune sodomita nu va scapa de mania lui Dumnezeu atunci cand va fi executata judecata. Cei care nu se pocaiesc si nu parasesc orice practici necurate vor cadea impreuna cu cei nelegiuiti. Cei care vor deveni membri ai familiei regale si vor forma imparatia lui Dumnezeu, pe pamantul reinnoit, vor fi sfinti, nu pacatosi. (Isaia 30, 1-3.8-16) 19:5 Cei care au avut o mare lumina, dar nu au luat seama la ea, se afla intr-o pozitie mai rea decat cei carora nu le-au fost acordate atat de multe privilegii. Ei se inalta pe cei insisi nu pe Domnul. Pedeapsa pe care o va suferi orice fiinta omeneasca va fi in fiecare caz, proportionala cu dezonoarea pe care au adus-o asupra lui Dumnezeu. Multi prin ingaduinta de sine, L-au 19:6 expus pe Domnul Hristos unei rusini deschise. (Scrisoarea 159, 1901) 19:7 Patimile cele mai josnice ale inimii omenesti. Ingaduinta in lucrurile pe care le condamna Legea a devenit o putere care a dus la starea de depravare a omenirii, pipernicind mintea si pervertind facultatile. Aceeasi stare de lucruri care exista astazi a existat si inainte de potop si inainte de distrugerea Sodomei. Desfraul este in crestere in lumea noastra. Anunturi cu desene indecente sunt tiparite si afisate pe strazile noastre pentru a atrage privirile si a duce la depravare. Aceste prezentari au ca scop de a trezi cele mai josnice patimi ale inimii omenesti prin inchipuiri stricate. Aceste inchipuiri stricate sunt urmate de practici intinate ca ale celor in care s-au complacut sodomitii. Insa ceea ce este cel mai teribil este faptul ca acestea sunt practicate sub mantia sfinteniei. Tinerii nostri vor fi stricati, gandurile lor se vor degrada si sufletele lor se vor intina daca ei nu isi vor face din adevar scutul, protectia lor. (Scrisoarea 1, 1875) 19:8 Pacatele Sodomei astazi. Noi nu suntem in necunostinta de cauza cu ceea ce s-a intamplat la caderea Sodomei datorita stricaciunii locuitorilor ei. Profetul a infatisat aici (Ezechiel 16, 19) pacatele care au dus la desfrau. Aceleasi pacate care au existat in Sodoma care au atras asupra ei mania lui Dumnezeu, pana la distrugerea ei totala, exista si astazi in lume. (4 BC, 1161) 19:9 Abandonarea ciudata a principiilor. Oare nu se face suficient pentru a ni se arata pericolele care ne asalteaza pe cale? Pretutindeni se vad epave ale omeniri, daramarea altarelor familiale, familii zdrobite. Exista o abandonare ciudata a principiilor, standardul privind moralitatea este jos iar pamantul se transforma cu repeziciune intr-o Sodoma. 19:10 Practicile sodomite care au atras judecatile lui Dumnezeu asupra lumii si au facut ca aceasta sa fie potopita de foc, se inmultesc cu repeziciune. Ne apropiem de sfarsit. Dumnezeu a suportat indelung stricaciunea omenirii insa pedeapsa nu va zabovi. Fie ca toti ce care pretind sa sunt lumina lumii sa se departeze de orice nelegiuire. (RH, 10 nov. 1884). 19:11 Necuratia este astazi larg raspandita, chiar printre asa-zisii urmasi ai lui Hristos. Pasiunea nu este tinuta in frau; fiind ingaduite, inclinatiile animalice capata putere in timp ce puterile morale slabesc din ce in ce mai mult. Pacatele care au nimicit pe antediluvieni si cetatile din campie, exista si astazi, nu numai in tarile pagane, nu numai printre adeptii crestinismului popular, dar si la unii dintre cei care sustin ca asteapta venirea Fiului omului. Daca Dumnezeu v-ar prezenta aceste pacate asa cum sunt ele pentru El, ati fi umpluti de rusine si oroare. (5 T, 218) |

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).
