\"\"\u00cen a doua duminic\u0103 dup\u0103 Rusalii, sunt pr\u0103znui\u021bi Sfin\u021bii locali ai fiec\u0103rei Biserici Ortodoxe, \u00een cazul nostru Sfin\u021bii Rom\u00e2ni. \u0218i cuv\u00e2ntul ne va fi despre sfin\u021bi, fiindc\u0103 \u0219i Apostolul citit azi a fost despre ei. Despre acei oameni, care, pur \u0219i simplu, au crezut cuvintelor M\u00e2ntuitorului, au crezut c\u0103 ce a zis El este adev\u0103rat \u0219i au \u00eemplinit cu fapta \u00een via\u021ba lor. Ei ne-au l\u0103sat m\u0103rturie proasp\u0103t\u0103 c\u0103 tot ce a zis Hristos e adev\u0103rat, c\u0103 Hristos este atotputernic \u2013 chiar dac\u0103 \u00eentr-un fel care nou\u0103, \u00een micimea noastr\u0103, ne scap\u0103 \u2013 \u0219i c\u0103 se poate ajunge la iubirea Dumnezeiasc\u0103. Ei au crezut \u0219i au dat totul pentru aceasta, astfel sfin\u021bindu-se. Sfin\u021bii sunt modele de inspira\u021bie pentru noi.<\/p>

\u00cen capitolul 3 de la Efeseni, Sf\u00e2ntul Pavel ne spune foarte frumos ce \u00eenseamn\u0103 un sf\u00e2nt, cum e sufletul unui sf\u00e2nt \u0219i cum ar trebui \u0219i noi s\u0103 dorim s\u0103 fim: \u201eMie, celui mai mic dec\u00e2t to\u021bi sfin\u021bii, mi-a fost dat harul acesta, ca s\u0103 binevestesc neamurilor bog\u0103\u021bia lui Hristos<\/strong>, de nep\u0103truns, \u0219i s\u0103 descop\u0103r tuturor care este iconomia tainei celei din veci ascunse \u00een Dumnezeu, Ziditorul a toate, prin Iisus Hristos, Pentru ca \u00een\u021belepciunea lui Dumnezeu cea de multe feluri s\u0103 se fac\u0103 cunoscut\u0103 acum, prin Biseric\u0103, \u00eencep\u0103toriilor \u0219i st\u0103p\u00e2niilor, \u00een ceruri\u201d (8-10). Despre ce ne vorbe\u0219te aici? Despre bog\u0103\u021bia de nep\u0103truns a lui Hristos. Sfin\u021bii, a\u0219a cum o s\u0103 zic\u0103 mai departe Sf\u00e2ntul Pavel, au l\u0103rgit sufletele lor \u0219i au prins bog\u0103\u021bia care zace \u00een Hristos.<\/p>

Noi, dimpotriv\u0103, de\u0219i st\u0103m pe o gr\u0103mad\u0103 de aur (ne \u00eemp\u0103rt\u0103\u0219im cu Sf\u00e2ntul Trup \u0219i S\u00e2nge ale lui Hristos etc) suntem s\u0103raci. \u0218i cer\u0219im c\u00e2\u021biva b\u0103nu\u021bi \u00een st\u00e2nga \u0219i \u00een dreapta. Aceasta, deoarece nu \u0219tim s\u0103 ne jertfim, nu \u0219tim s\u0103 credem cuvintelor lui Hristos. Suntem pu\u021bin credincio\u0219i. Dar sfin\u021bii au crezut. \u0218i, prin ei, spune Sf\u00e2ntul Pavel, s-a ar\u0103tat \u0219i \u00eengerilor din ceruri \u00een\u021belepciunea lui Dumnezeu. Nici puterile \u00eengere\u0219ti nu \u0219tiau tainele acestea pe care Le-a ar\u0103tat Dumnezeu prin oameni.<\/p>

Continu\u0103 Sf\u00e2ntul Pavel: \u201eDup\u0103 sfatul cel din veci, pe care El L-a \u00eemplinit \u00een Hristos Iisus, Domnul nostru, \u00centru Care avem, prin credin\u021ba \u00een El, \u00eendr\u0103zneal\u0103 \u0219i apropiere de Dumnezeu, cu deplin\u0103 \u00eencredere<\/strong>\u201d (11-12). Asta nu avem noi: \u00eendr\u0103zneal\u0103 \u0219i apropiere de Dumnezeu, cu deplin\u0103 \u00eencredere. \u0218i de unde se vede c\u0103 nu avem? Din faptul c\u0103 ne l\u0103s\u0103m impresiona\u021bi de ispite \u0219i \u00eencerc\u0103ri, de lucrarea vr\u0103jma\u0219ului, \u00een general. Suntem cople\u0219i\u021bi, timora\u021bi de lucrarea celui r\u0103u. Noi nu tr\u0103im \u00een inima noastr\u0103 apropierea aceasta de Dumnezeu, \u00eendr\u0103zneala \u0219i credincio\u0219ia \u00een puterea Lui.<\/p>

\u201eDe aceea, v\u0103 rog s\u0103 nu v\u0103 pierde\u021bi cump\u0103tul, din pricina necazurilor mele pentru voi; ele sunt slava voastr\u0103. Pentru aceasta, \u00eemi plec genunchii \u00eenaintea Tat\u0103lui Domnului nostru Iisus Hristos... s\u0103 v\u0103 d\u0103ruiasc\u0103, dup\u0103 bog\u0103\u021bia slavei Sale, ca s\u0103 fi\u021bi puternic \u00eent\u0103ri\u021bi, prin Duhul S\u0103u, \u00een omul din\u0103untru. \u0218i Hristos s\u0103 Se s\u0103l\u0103\u0219luiasc\u0103, prin credin\u021b\u0103, \u00een inimile voastre, \u00eenr\u0103d\u0103cina\u021bi \u0219i \u00eentemeia\u021bi fiind \u00een iubire, ca s\u0103 pute\u021bi \u00een\u021belege \u00eempreun\u0103 cu to\u021bi sfin\u021bii care este l\u0103rgimea \u0219i lungimea \u0219i \u00een\u0103l\u021bimea \u0219i ad\u00e2ncimea\u201d (13-18). La aceasta suntem chema\u021bi: s\u0103 l\u0103rgim inimile noastre (cf. 2 Corinteni 6, 13). Pentru aceasta este f\u0103cut\u0103 inima omului: s\u0103 se l\u0103rgeasc\u0103, s\u0103 cuprind\u0103 cerul, p\u0103m\u00e2ntul \u0219i pe to\u021bi oamenii, a\u0219a cum zic Sfin\u021bii P\u0103rin\u021bi.<\/p>

Aceasta este bog\u0103\u021bia cea mare, pe care, din p\u0103cate, nu o acces\u0103m din cauza credin\u021bei noastre pu\u021bine, din cauza intereselor noastre care sunt \u00een alt\u0103 parte. Noi nu ne dorim aceast\u0103 bog\u0103\u021bie. Noi altceva ne dorim. Pentru c\u0103 dac\u0103 ne-am fi dorit-o, nu am mai fi a\u0219a ca ni\u0219te orfani \u0219i b\u0103tu\u021bi de v\u00e2nt, ci am fi avut \u00eendr\u0103zneal\u0103 \u0219i \u00eencredere \u00een El.<\/p>

\u201e\u0218i s\u0103 cunoa\u0219te\u021bi iubirea lui Hristos, cea mai presus de cuno\u0219tin\u021b\u0103, ca s\u0103 v\u0103 umple\u021bi de toat\u0103 plin\u0103tatea lui Dumnezeu<\/strong>\u201d (19). Pentru aceasta suntem f\u0103cu\u021bi: s\u0103 gust\u0103m, adic\u0103 s\u0103 cunoa\u0219tem \u201eiubirea lui Hristos, cea mai presus de cuno\u0219tin\u021b\u0103\u201d. Aceasta nu e o cuno\u0219tin\u021b\u0103 ra\u021bional\u0103, ci una a inimii prin Duhul Sf\u00e2nt. Acesta este cre\u0219tinul adev\u0103rat. E important s\u0103 \u00eennoim f\u0103g\u0103duin\u021bele acestea, fiindc\u0103 pentru ele ne-am botezat, ca s\u0103 mergem \u00een direc\u021bia aceasta. \u0218ti\u021bi cum zicea Sf\u00e2ntul Pavel despre Hristos, c\u0103 \u00een El a locuit toat\u0103 deplin\u0103tatea dumnezeirii (cf. Coloseni 2, 9). \u0218i noi suntem chema\u021bi s\u0103 ne umplem de toat\u0103 plin\u0103tatea lui Dumnezeu.<\/p>

\u201eIar Celui ce poate s\u0103 fac\u0103, prin puterea cea lucr\u0103toare \u00een noi, cu mult mai presus dec\u00e2t toate c\u00e2te cerem sau pricepem noi, Lui fie slava \u00een Biseric\u0103 \u0219i \u00eentru Hristos Iisus \u00een toate neamurile veacului veacurilor. Amin!\u201d (20-21) Dac\u0103 o s\u0103 citim cu aten\u021bie acest text, fiecare \u00een con\u0219tiin\u021ba lui, o s\u0103 vedem c\u0103 suntem mult, mult sub demnitatea de cre\u0219tini. Hristos a venit s\u0103 ne aduc\u0103 \u201evia\u021b\u0103 din bel\u0219ug\u201d (cf. Ioan 10,10), ne-a vorbit \u0219i ne a\u0219teapt\u0103 s\u0103 gust\u0103m din acestea, s\u0103 avem \u00eencredere \u00een El. Asta vrea de la noi: s\u0103 ne dea lucruri mai presus de ceea ce cerem sau pricepem.<\/p>

Aceasta este ceea ce ar trebui s\u0103 ne dorim noi, cre\u0219tini fiind, s\u0103 gust\u0103m din aceste realit\u0103\u021bi.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
