"Ati inteles? "**

Daca arunci mai multe seminte, imposibil sa nu incolteasca macar una! "****Aceasta fraza m-a dus cu gandul la versetul urmator: "Dimineata, seamana-ti samanta, si pana seara nu lasa mana sa ti se odihneasca, fiindca nu stii ce va izbuti, aceasta, sau aceea, sau daca amandoua sunt deopotriva de bune " Eclesiastul 11:6 "



"Tot ce NU are un fundament solid este in aer, nu rezista."**** Completarea mea: e intelept asadar sa ai o temelie care sa fie durabila, pe care nimeni si nimic sa nu o poata clatina...nici macar timpul...si atunci o concluzie corecta te duce la gandul ca ai nevoie de o temelie vesnica, neclintita: cea mai buna alegere este sa alegi pe Hristos ca temelie a vietii tale. De ce? Pentru ca El insusi a spus despre Sine ca este : "Adevarul" - asadar nu poate fi clatinat....ba chiar mai mult decat atat : Isus Insusi este : "Viatza" insasi....iar referitor la vesnicie: ""Eu sunt Alfa si Omega, Inceputul si Sfarsitul," zice Domnul Dumnezeu, Cel ce este, Cel ce era si Cel ce vine, Cel Atotputernic. " Apocalipsa 1:8. Chiar David spune inspirat de Duhul lui Dumnezeu:" Inainte ca sa se fi nascut muntii, si inainte ca sa se fi facut pamantul si lumea, din vesnicie in vesnicie, Tu esti Dumnezeu!" Psalmul 90:2



"Gandesti mult lucrezi putin. Gandesti putin lucrezi mult." - bun sfat. Dar daca mai intai te rogi si Il chemi pe Dumnezeu sa te ajute, atunci vei primi intelepciunea si puterea necesara pt a face acel lucru intr-un mod intelept si cel mai eficient.



Abia astept sa vad ce mai spun profesorii mei. Notitele le-am luat in timpul cursurilor, seminariilor, in micile pauze dedicate odihnirii mainilor si a creierului. :)

What Jesus Did! - Truthfulness!

"You have heard that it was said to our people long ago, 'When you make a vow (promise), don't break that promise. Keep the vows (promises) that you make to the Lord.' But I tell you, never make a vow. Don't make a vow using the name of heaven, because heaven is God's throne.
- Matthew 5:33-34 (ERV)

THOUGHT:
When we promise God something, he expects us to keep our word. It doesn't matter what the cultural view of truth and lying is, we are to be honest before God and with each other. In a way, it is ridiculous to try to live in any other way. After all, God knows our heart, our intentions, and our actions. He will hold us to our promises whether anyone else does or not! So let's make sure our word is genuine and that we don't need to pile up a bunch of other "flowery" language or culturally appropriate expletives to prop up our commitments. If we say we'll do it, then let's do it!

PRAYER:
Father in heaven, please forgive me for the times I have not kept my word. Stir in me a passion for faithfulness and trustworthiness. Make me a person who can be counted upon to follow through with what I say. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

Related Scriptures:

If you make a promise to God, then keep your promise. Don't be slow to do the thing you promised. God is not happy with foolish people. Give God what you promised to give him. It is better to promise nothing than to promise something and not be able to do it. - Ecclesiastes 5:4-5

"When you make a promise to the Lord your God, don't be slow to pay all that you promised. Why? Because the Lord your God will demand that you pay it. You will sin if you don't pay the things you promised. If you don't make a promise, then you are not sinning. But you must do the things you say you will do. If you make a special promise to God, then you chose to make that promise. God did not force you to make that promise. So you must do the thing you promised! - Deuteronomy 23:21-23

The Lord hates people who tell lies. But the Lord is happy with people who tell the truth. - Proverbs 12:22

Cat de mult il asteptam pe Isus sa revina sa-Si ia Mireasa?

Dincolo de rabdare

de Catalin Lata

Eu simt ca nu mai am rabdare
E ca si cum as sti
Ca vii,
In dimineata urmatoare
Eu nu inteleg
De ce mai stau
De ce aripile-mi de zbor
Nu le dezleg,
Izbavitor,
Sa 'nalt pe veci nemuritor
Sa fiu in spatiul Tau, intreg.

Si toate gandurile-mi fug
Catre intoarcerea spre casa...
As vrea sa merg, dar simt in mine
O forta care nu ma lasa
Eu, Doamne-Ti cer sa Te intorci
Din plaiul Tau
La noi, in hau,
Sa-Ti smulgi copilul dintre porci.
Sau eu ma-ntorc?! Si nu mai stiu?!
E drumu-ntoarcerii prea lung
Si parca-mi pare prea pustiu.

Tu-mi numeri pasii-ntr-un tarziu,
Sa inteleg, cand n-am rabdare,
Ca si Tu esti in asteptare.

Si Duhul Tau, dar si Mireasa
Sunt una-n simt si una-n gand:
"Ne pregateste, Doamne, casa
Si-ntoarce-Te cat mai curand!"

What Jesus Did!

It was also said, 'Any person that divorces his wife must give her a written notice of divorce.' But I tell you that any person that divorces his wife is causing his wife to be guilty of the sin of adultery. The only reason for a person to divorce his wife is if his wife had sexual relations with another man. And any person that marries that divorced woman is guilty of the sin of adultery. - Matthew 5:31-32 (ERV)

THOUGHT:

The prophet Malachi said it forcefully, "God hates divorce!" Jesus' words here are equally emphatic. Jesus' condemnation is specifically directed to men because they were the only ones in Jewish culture in Jesus' time who could divorce a marriage partner. A woman was left with few options other than remarriage or poverty. While God hates divorce, Jesus' ministry demonstrates God's love for those broken by it (cf. John 4). In fact, God hates divorce because of the brokenness it creates in the lives of those involved and the loss of character in one or both parties that often causes divorce. Because of their love for God, husbands and wives have as their goal two key things: (1) loving each other and (2) learning faithfulness through their relationship with each other. By pursuing a loving relationship and remaining faithful sexually, they are guarding themselves against divorce and honoring God by maintaining their covenant with him and with each other. In an age where promiscuity and sexual indiscretion run rampant, we must heed the call to sexual purity and loving commitment so that divorce can be prevented and its devastation avoided.

PRAYER:

Holy and faithful God, please help me keep my heart loyal and true. I want to be a person of character. Empower me by your Spirit to stay free of sexual sin and to be faithful in the commitments I make. Holy God, if I am married, I pray that you not only keep me from divorce, but that you also lead me to a life of loving service with my marriage partner. In addition, dear Father, please strengthen and bless those that I know who are in marriage distress and ransom their marriage from impending divorce. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

Related Scriptures:

You can cry and cover the Lord's altar with tears, but the Lord will not accept your gifts. The Lord will not be pleased with the things you bring to him. You ask, "Why are our gifts not accepted by the Lord?" Why? Because the Lord saw the bad things you did--he is a witness against you. He saw you cheat on your wife. You have been married to that woman since you were young. She was your girlfriend. Then you made your vows to each other--and she became your wife. {But you cheated on her}. God wants husbands and wives to become one body and one spirit. Why? So they would have holy children. So protect that spiritual unity. Don't cheat on your wife. She has been your wife from the time you were young. The Lord God of Israel says, "I hate divorce. And I hate the cruel things that men do. So protect your spiritual unity. Don't cheat on your wife." - Malachi 2:13-16

I tell you that any person that divorces his wife and marries another woman is guilty of the sin of adultery. The only reason for a person to divorce and marry again is if his first wife had sexual relations with another man." - Matthew 19:9

Now I give this command for the married people. (The command is not from me; it is from the Lord.) A wife must not leave her husband. But if a wife leaves her husband she must not marry again. Or she should go back together with her husband. Also the husband must not divorce his wife. - 1 Corinthians 7:10-11

What Jesus Did! - Shock!

If your right eye makes you sin, then take it out and throw it away. It is better to lose one part of your body than to have your whole body thrown into hell. If your right hand makes you sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell. - Matthew 5:29-30 (ERV)

THOUGHT:

Although treated as an antiquated concept in much of Western society, sin is very much a concern to Jesus. Sin is dangerous because it harms us in our walk with God. Sin is dangerous because, through us, it can cause others to sin. Sin is dangerous because our sin directly hurts others. Sin is disastrous because it separates us from God. Jesus wanted to get his disciples' attention. He wanted us to know that sin is horrid and dangerous. So he uses language that is best described as hyperbole to shock us into realizing that we must deal with sin in our lives.

We must deal with it seriously and get rid of it.

Jesus elsewhere emphasizes that sin is what comes from the heart and causes the actions on the outside. It seems to me unwise to think he is speaking literally here since he goes to great lengths to emphasize that mere external changes don't create lasting change in us. What is needed is an internal change that works itself out into the external lifestyle. Just because God is gracious doesn't mean he takes sin lightly. We must never presume upon grace and use it as an excuse to keep falling back into the same old sinful failures. Jesus wants us to deal with the sin in our lives today.

PRAYER:

Holy and righteous Father, I do not want to take my own sin lightly. Neither do I want to let it defeat me. Please empower me to put to death the misdeeds of the body as you promised. Please help me keep from taking my sin lackadaisically. In Jesus' name. Amen.

- Colossian 2:21-23

It is the evil things a person wants that tempt that person. His own evil desire leads him away and holds him. This desire causes sin. Then the sin grows and brings death. - James 1:14-15

But the bad things a person says with his mouth come from the way a person thinks. And these are the things that make a person wrong. All these bad things begin in a person's mind: evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual sins, stealing, lying, saying bad things against other people. - Matthew 15:18-19
