Recent, într-o comunitate protestantă a fost ales ca prezbiter un tânar în värstă de vreo 30 de ani. Omul acesta era foarte strict cu cei din jurul său ,dar foarte tolerant cu sine și cu cei din familia sa.
In comunitatea aceea era o bătrână pe care nu o putea suporta.Bătrâna aceea era o femeie care venea mereu la biserică, asculta Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu iar când serviciile divine se terminau bătrâna pleca liniștită acasă. Însă, prezbiterașul spunea despre aceastå femeie:
-Femeia aceasta nu face absolut nimic în biserica noastră!
Totuși, s-a intâmplat ca într-o zi de închinare să vină în comunitate un nou pastor.Mesajul a fost despre lucrarea de evanghelizare. La un moment dat ,în timpul predicii pastorul a spus:
– Toți care ați cunoscut adevărul biblic prin intermediul unei persoane din această biserică ,vă rog să vă ridicați în picioare și så mergeți la persoana aceea și så-i mulțumiți.
În scurt timp , în dreptul femeii bătrâne s-au strâns câteva persoane care s-au așezat la rând pentru a-i mulțumi pentru că au cunoscut adevărul biblic prin ea.
În dreptul prezbiterului nu era nimeni.
Cum comentați atitudinea prezbiterului?
Recently , in a Protestant community a man about 30 years was chosen as an elder . This man was very strict with people around him , but very tolerant with himself and with those of his family.
In that community there was an old woman to whom the elder could not bear her. The old woman was a person who always came to church , was listening to the Word of God and when the divine services ended she quietly was going home. But the elder said about this woman :
-This woman makes absolutely nothing in this church !
However , it has happened on a day of worship that a new pastor came to that community . The message was about evangelism . At one point during the sermon the pastor said:
– All who have known biblical truth through a person in this church , I ask you to stand up and go to that person and to thank him/her. Soon ,in front of the old woman a lot of people gathered and sat in a row to thank her because they knew the biblical truth through her.
But in front of the elder was none to thank him.
How do you comment the elder”s attitude ?
Gracias … merci … bien dicho … de très bon mots … diolch …

Thank you for liking my recent blog post, George. I must tell you that I do not believe and do not have a religion. The Bible, especially the Old Testament, is crammed with horrible deeds performed by a maniac god who is proud of his unjust ways.

Welcome to my blog,too. I respect your opinion but i can’t be agree with you ,Susanenholm32. The Bible says that God is love. And I believe this thing.

Întrebarea de bază este cine suntem noi să judecăm? We know only a small facet of the other person and we all have our own biases. Accept the other as he is.
Cheers and best wishes. 🙂

Thanks for your comment.
You are right. We shouldn’t judge the people around us. We should accept them as they are.
Have a nice day!

Hello. How did you manage to publish a book on Amazon?
ApreciazăApreciază
You can publish a paperback or e-book with Amazon. Kindle Direct publishing will guide you through the process of publishing an e-book. Createspace will help you self publish a paperback. Then they are put up automatically on Amazon sites and Createspace will distribute your book to other companies. Both publishers are technically Amazon and are easy to work with.

I have written more poems i wanted to publish on Amazon but i didn’t manage to format them

I would recommend an e-book for publishing poetry. I think e-books are more popular. So if you sign up to Kindle Direct Publishing they will guide you exactly how to prepare your text. Do not worry about formatting for an e-book because it is best to format your text when uploading to Kindle. This is because your text will move around so as to fit their template.

I have an account on kdp . I have a lot of images to upload them and I didn’t manage to do this. I must read more things about it.

Text is much easier to prepare on KDP. They do offer a service where they will do it for you for a fee. There is another e-book company which I found easier to use than KDP , http://www.smashwords.com. I prefer them because they have so much information on their system and I think their system is easier to use.

As you prepare your text on the template supplied by KDP your text will move around anyway so best to format on the template.

It is very difficult to put images on an e-book. I personally prefer http://www.smashwords.com, another e-book publishing company. They have a wealth of information to help and their system is easier to use. It is just another option for you to consider.
