عجيبة شفاء الشحاذ الأعمى ابن برطيما
إنجيل القدّيس مرقس10/من46حتى52/:”بَيْنَمَا يَسُوعُ خَارِجٌ مِنْ أَرِيحا، هُوَ وتَلامِيذُهُ وجَمْعٌ غَفِير، كَانَ بَرْطِيمَا، أَي ٱبْنُ طِيمَا، وهُوَ شَحَّاذٌ أَعْمَى، جَالِسًا عَلَى جَانِبِ الطَّريق. فلَمَّا سَمِعَ أَنَّهُ يَسُوعُ النَّاصِرِيّ، بَدَأَ يَصْرُخُ ويَقُول: «يَا يَسُوعُ ٱبْنَ دَاوُدَ ٱرْحَمْنِي!».فَٱنْتَهَرَهُ أُنَاسٌ كَثِيرُونَ لِيَسْكُت، إِلاَّ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَزْدَادُ صُرَاخًا: «يَا ٱبْنَ دَاوُدَ ٱرْحَمْنِي!». فوَقَفَ يَسُوعُ وقَال: «أُدْعُوه!». فَدَعَوا الأَعْمَى قَائِلِين لَهُ: «ثِقْ وٱنْهَضْ! إِنَّهُ يَدْعُوك». فطَرَحَ الأَعْمَى رِدَاءَهُ، ووَثَبَ وجَاءَ إِلى يَسُوع. فقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوع: «مَاذَا تُرِيدُ أَنْ أَصْنَعَ لَكَ؟». قالَ لَهُ الأَعْمَى: «رَابُّونِي، أَنْ أُبْصِر!».فقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوع: «إِذْهَبْ! إِيْمَانُكَ خَلَّصَكَ». ولِلْوَقْتِ عَادَ يُبْصِر. ورَاحَ يَتْبَعُ يَسُوعَ في الطَّرِيق.”
إنَّنا نَحْيَا في الجَسَد، ولكِنَّنا لا نُحَارِبُ كَأُنَاسٍ جَسَدِيِّين؛ لأَنَّ أَسْلِحَةَ جِهَادِنا لَيْسَتْ جَسَدِيَّة، بَلْ هيَ قَادِرَةٌ بِٱللهِ عَلى هَدْمِ الحُصُونِ المَنِيعَة
رسالة القدّيس بولس الثانية إلى أهل قورنتس10/من01حتى10/:”يا إخوَتِي، أَنَا بُولُسُ نَفْسي أُنَاشِدُكُم بِوَدَاعَةِ المَسِيحِ وَحِلْمِهِ، أَنَا المُتَواضِعُ بَيْنَكُم عِنْدَمَا أَكُونُ حَاضِرًا، والجَريءُ عَلَيْكُم عِنْدَما أَكُونُ غَائِبًا. وأَرْجُو أَلاَّ أُجْبَرَ عِنْدَ حُضُورِي أَنْ أَكُونَ جَريئًا، بِالثِّقَةِ الَّتي لي بِكُم، والَّتي أَنْوِي أَنْ أَجْرُؤَ بِهَا عَلى الَّذينَ يَحْسَبُونَ أَنَّنا نَسْلُكُ كَأُنَاسٍ جَسَدِيِّين. أَجَل، إِنَّنا نَحْيَا في الجَسَد، ولكِنَّنا لا نُحَارِبُ كَأُنَاسٍ جَسَدِيِّين؛ لأَنَّ أَسْلِحَةَ جِهَادِنا لَيْسَتْ جَسَدِيَّة، بَلْ هيَ قَادِرَةٌ بِٱللهِ عَلى هَدْمِ الحُصُونِ المَنِيعَة؛ فإِنَّنا نَهْدِمُ الأَفْكَارَ الخَاطِئَة، وكُلَّ شُمُوخٍ يَرْتَفِعُ ضِدَّ مَعْرِفَةِ ٱلله، ونَأْسُرُ كُلَّ فِكْرٍ لِطَاعَةِ المَسِيح. ونَحْنُ مُسْتَعِدُّونَ أَنْ نُعَاقِبَ كُلَّ عُصْيَان، مَتى كَمُلَتْ طَاعَتُكُم. إِنَّكُم تَحْكُمُونَ عَلى المَظَاهِر! إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ وَاثِقًا بِنَفْسِهِ أَنَّهُ لِلمَسيح، فَلْيُفَكِّرْ في نَفْسِهِ أَنَّهُ كَمَا هوَ لِلمَسيحِ كَذلِكَ نَحْنُ أَيْضًا.”.
The Miracle Of Healing the Bling Beggar, Bartimaeus Son Of Timaeus
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Mark 10/46-52: “They came to Jericho. As Jesus and his disciples and a large crowd were leaving Jericho, Bartimaeus son of Timaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the roadside. When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout out and say, ‘Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!’ Many sternly ordered him to be quiet, but he cried out even more loudly, ‘Son of David, have mercy on me!’Jesus stood still and said, ‘Call him here.’ And they called the blind man, saying to him, ‘Take heart; get up, he is calling you.’So throwing off his cloak, he sprang up and came to Jesus.Then Jesus said to him, ‘What do you want me to do for you?’ The blind man said to him, ‘My teacher, let me see again.’Jesus said to him, ‘Go; your faith has made you well.’ Immediately he regained his sight and followed him on the way.”.
Indeed, we live as human beings, but we do not wage war according to human standards; for the weapons of our warfare are not merely human, but they have divine power to destroy strongholds.
Second Letter to the Corinthians 10/01-07:”I myself, Paul, appeal to you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ I who am humble when face to face with you, but bold towards you when I am away! I ask that when I am present I need not show boldness by daring to oppose those who think we are acting according to human standards. Indeed, we live as human beings, but we do not wage war according to human standards; for the weapons of our warfare are not merely human, but they have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every proud obstacle raised up against the knowledge of God, and we take every thought captive to obey Christ. We are ready to punish every disobedience when your obedience is complete. Look at what is before your eyes. If you are confident that you belong to Christ, remind yourself of this, that just as you belong to Christ, so also do we.”
