Amalec

”După ce sămăna Israel, Madian se suia cu Amalec şi fiii Răsăritului, şi porneau împotriva lui. Tăbărau în faţa lui, nimiceau roadele ţării pînă spre Gaza; şi nu lăsau în Israel nici merinde, nici oi, nici boi, nici măgari.   Căci se suiau împreună cu turmele şi corturile lor, soseau ca o mulţime de lăcuste, erau fără număr, ei şi cămilele lor, şi veneau în ţară ca s-o pustiască.”
11057266_857463160982464_3836171577352738164_n

Când sameni mult, dar toamna nu culegi
și fără roade anii vieții-ți trec,
încearcă frate drag să-nțelegi:
nu ești învins cumva de Amalec?

Amaleciții nu ucid, ei vin
spre toamnă doar, ca să-ți culeagă holda,
te-ncurajează, te privesc senin
să nu-nțelegi că truda ta li-e solda.

E-o pildă ce-i lăsată în Scripturi,
un tâlc din ea să știm a desluși,
cu tainice poveți și-nvățături,
căci Amalec înseamn-”a linguși”.

Lingușitorii, zâmbitori senini
te laudă cu vorba lor dulceagă,
dar în ascuns ei te împung haini,
te lasă fără rod și fără vlagă.

Și tu nu știi de unde, nu pricepi,
cum sub senina mască de blajin
se-ascunde-un suflet de arici cu țepi
o viperă ce mușcă cu venin.

Apoi mai învățăm că Madian
cu Amalec împart aceeași soartă,
sunt aliați la pradă an de an….
Dar știi că Madian înseamnă ceartă?

Iar ei sunt prieteni: cel lingușitor
cu certărețul veșnic pe gâlceavă,
pe unu-l ai amic și confesor
și guști prin el a celuilalt otravă.

(Nu te-a ajuns nici o ispita dar
nepotrivită firii omenești
și împreună ai primit prin Har
mijlocul ca să poți s-o biruiești.

Căci tot ce mai ‘nainte ni s-a scris
e mijlocul lăsat spre învățare,
crezând al pildei tâlc cum e descris
să biruim ispitele-n răbdare.)

Să știm atunci când câte-un Madian
cu duh de ceartă rău și arțăgos
ne-atacă, va veni cu el viclean
și-un Amalec cu glas dulceag, mieros.

Tu fugi de certăreț, și cazi naiv
în brațe calde de lingușitor,
crezându-l doar pe unul negativ
pe celălalt ți-l faci sfătuitor.

Și-ți trece viața ca un sac de box
lovit sau ”mângâiat” de doi ”dușmani”
trăind un incredibil paradox
de sclav sub ”amaleci” și ”madiani”.

E-un teatru prost în care ești actor
când alții-ți scriu al vieții almanah,
ei te socot o piesă-n jocul lor,
un biet pion pe-o tablă ca de șah.

Citește din judecători, din regi
de Iefta, de Barac, de Ghedeon
a-l pildei tâlc prin duh de-l înțelegi,
poți evada din starea de pion.

Și nu uita ce Moise a spus,
războiul cu acest  vrăjmaș e greu,
când mîinile întinse sunt în sus,
”cu Amalec se luptă Dumnezeu”.

Din neam în neam, din vremea lui Agag
vedem această luptă an de an,
la Refidim, la Horma, la Țiglag,
la ultimul lingușitor: Haman.

Din pilde învățăm cum să luptăm,
dar învățăm și să sărbătorim,
să ne dăm daruri, să ne bucurăm
de-un binemeritat și nou Purim.

2f7d4-resurrectionmorning

IN ENGLISH:

Chip Ingram recounts how his faith in the Jesus of the Bible was challenged in college, during his master’s and doctorate programs by getting hit with some very hard questions as to the historicity of Jesus as well as having his intellectual standing assailed. Ingram states: “So I started this journey and I’ve been on this journey for about 30 years. And the journey goes something like this: Is there intellectually feasible evidence to support a faith in the Jesus of the Bible, with His claims of deity, eternal life and absolute truth?”

This is video 1 of a 12 part series posted on Romanian television. The entire DVD set is available at amazon.com  Here is the description of the DVD set: What happens when we die? Can miracles be explained? Is there really a God? Answers to questions such as these are as varied as they are confusing, and spring from a plethora of mystical belief systems. But the fact is, we can know the truth. There are solid, logical answers to satisfy the heart and mind of those who are seeking. If you or someone you know has genuine questions about issues at the core of human existence, this series is an excellent resource! Message titles include: Why I Believe in the Resurrection / Why I Believe in Life After Death / Why I Believe in the Bible / Why I Believe in Creation – Part 1 / Why I Believe in Creation – Part 2 / Why I Believe in the God of the Bible

IN LIMBA ROMANA:

Crestinii si ateii sunt de acord dintr-o privinta, principala chestiune este invierea. Credinta noastra este construita pe un Isus care a trait in timp si spatiu. Manuscriptele biblice, cantitatea lor si calitatea, atat din punct de vedere secular, cat si din punct de vedere a savantilor religiosi; avem 25,000 de documente Nou Testamentare care autentifica realitatea/existenta lui Isus Hristos. Biblia nu este doar o formula despre cum sa-ti traiesti viata. Potrivit lui Isus, sunt cuvintele adevarate a lui Dumnezeu, cuvintele adevarate ale vietii pe care Dumnezeu vrea sa le ai.

Vei accepta sau vei respinge dovezile?

Chip Ingram povesteste citindu-l pe Francis Schaeffer,  si studiind si absolvind Universitatea de West Virginia, unde a scris lucrarea de licenta despre bazele intelectuale ale eticii, pe care a inceput sa le aprofundeze. Spune Ingram: In sesiunea de masterat si de doctorat m-au bombardat cu intrebari dificile. Asa ca am inceput aceasta aprofundare de peste 30 de ani. Cercetarea suna cam asa: Exista dovezi intelectuale care sa sustina credinta intr-un Isus din Biblie si afirmatiile Sale despre divinitatea Sa, despre viata eterna si adevarul absolut? Acum, dupa 30 de ani doresc sa raspund prin ceia ce am invatat.”

OPEN WINDOWS-T.AUSTIN SPARKS

April 4


I want to know Christ – yes, to know the power of His resurrection and participation in His sufferings, becoming like Him in His death. (Philippians 3:10 NIV)

Do recognize that the Cross is the end of the risen life, and not only the beginning. If you forget everything else, remember that. The Cross is the end of the risen life, as well as the beginning: “That I may know Him, and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, becoming conformed unto His death.”People have been to me with Philippians 3 and have asked: “Why did Paul put death at the end? Surely it ought to be right the other way round – ‘That I may be conformed to His death, and know Him in the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings.’” No, there is no mistake. The order is of the Holy Spirit. The power of His resurrection presupposes that there has been a death, but the very resurrection-life leads to the Cross. The Holy Spirit in the power of the risen life is always leading you back to the Cross, to conformity to His death. It is the very property of Life to rule out all that belongs to death. It is the very power of resurrection to bring us back to the place where death is constantly overcome.

That place is none other than the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ where the natural life is put aside. So Paul says: “…becoming conformed unto His death,” which means: to have the ground of death continuously and progressively removed; and that, again, as we have said, is the fruit of living union with Him. It would be a poor look-out for you and for me were we to be conformed to His death in entirety apart from the power of resurrection in us, apart from our already knowing the Life of the Lord. Where would be our hope? What is it that is the power of our survival when the Cross is made more real in our experience? There would be no survival were it not that His risen Life is in us. So Paul prays: “That I may know Him, and the power of His resurrection…” and that means conformity to His death without utter destruction. The end of the risen life is the Cross. The Holy Spirit is always working in relation to the Cross, in order that the power of His resurrection may be increasingly manifested in us.
