V Biblii \u010d\u00edtame o \u013eu\u010foch, ktor\u00ed si svojimi \u017eivotmi, skutkami a rozhodnutiami zasl\u00fa\u017eili prest\u00ed\u017ene ocenenie \u201eHrdinovia viery\u201c. S\u00fa to mu\u017eovia a \u017eeny, ktor\u00ed sa neb\u00e1li by\u0165 in\u00ed, ktor\u00fdch si Boh pou\u017eil na r\u00f4zne ve\u013ek\u00e9 veci, a od ktor\u00fdch sa toho m\u00f4\u017eeme ve\u013ea nau\u010di\u0165. Ich zoznam si m\u00f4\u017eeme pre\u010d\u00edta\u0165 v Liste \u017didom, v 11. kapitole. Odtia\u013e budeme tie\u017e \u010derpa\u0165 in\u0161pir\u00e1ciu na t\u00fato s\u00e9riu \u010dl\u00e1nkov.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
V tej jednej kapitole, \u017didom 11, je slovo \u201eviera\u201c pou\u017eit\u00e9 24-kr\u00e1t. Text jasne hovor\u00ed, \u017ee ka\u017ed\u00fd z na\u0161ich hrdinov dok\u00e1zal ve\u013ek\u00e9 veci, lebo mal vieru. Bez viery nie je mo\u017en\u00e9 \u013e\u00fabi\u0165 sa Bohu (\u017did 11:6). Viera mus\u00ed by\u0165 z\u00e1kladom na\u0161ich \u017eivotov a na\u0161ich slu\u017eieb. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u010co je ale viera? Viera je podstatou toho, na \u010do sa \u010dlovek n\u00e1deja, presved\u010den\u00edm o veciach, ktor\u00e9 sa nevidia (\u017did 11:1). Viera, skuto\u010dn\u00e1 viera, nie je len nie\u010do, v \u010do d\u00fafame, \u017ee je pravda, alebo \u017ee sa stane. Viera je presved\u010denie. Presved\u010denie a istota v nie\u010do, \u010do sme s\u00edce nevideli, ale vieme, \u017ee je pravda. V prvom rade ide o vieru v evanjelium, v t\u00fa dobr\u00fa spr\u00e1vu o Kristovi. O Jeho z\u00e1zra\u010dnom po\u010dat\u00ed, bezhrie\u0161nom \u017eivote, smrti, vzkriesen\u00ed, nanebovst\u00fapen\u00ed a Jeho bud\u00facom n\u00e1vrate v sl\u00e1ve Svojho Otca. T\u00e1to viera zachra\u0148uje a d\u00e1va ve\u010dn\u00fd \u017eivot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
„Ka\u017edodenn\u00e1 viera d\u00e1va podstatu n\u00e1\u0161mu \u017eivotu tu na zemi.<\/strong>„<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
V druhom rade ide o ka\u017edodenn\u00fa vieru vo veciach \u017eivota. K\u00fdm zachra\u0148uj\u00faca viera d\u00e1va \u017eivot ve\u010dn\u00fd, t\u00e1to ka\u017edodenn\u00e1 viera d\u00e1va podstatu n\u00e1\u0161mu \u017eivotu tu na zemi. Je zalo\u017een\u00e1 na poznan\u00ed Boha a d\u00f4vere v Jeho charakter. Nie v\u017edy n\u00e1m veci d\u00e1vaj\u00fa zmysel, niekedy v\u00f4bec nerozumieme Bo\u017e\u00edm z\u00e1merom, pre\u010do sa deje, \u010do sa deje, ale aj tak m\u00e1me vieru. Lebo chod\u00edme vierou a nie viden\u00edm.“ (2. Kor 5:7). Pr\u00e1ve t\u00e1to viera odli\u0161uje aj dne\u0161n\u00fdch \u201ehrdinov viery\u201c od ostatn\u00fdch veriacich. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nezost\u00e1va sama<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Skuto\u010dn\u00e1 viera ale nikdy nezostane sama. Skuto\u010dn\u00fa vieru v\u017edy sprev\u00e1dzaj\u00fa skutky. Lebo strom sa pozn\u00e1 po ovoc\u00ed (Mat\u00fa\u0161 12:33) a Jakub tie\u017e vo svojom liste p\u00ed\u0161e o Abrah\u00e1movi (Jakub 2:22): \u201eVid\u00ed\u0161, \u017ee viera spolu\u00fa\u010dinkovala s jeho skutkami a \u017ee viera bola dokonan\u00e1 zo skutkov.\u201d A tak, hrdinovia viery mali ve\u013ek\u00fa vieru, ale boli to ich skutky, ktor\u00e9 t\u00fa vieru dok\u00e1zali a urobili ju vidite\u013en\u00fa pre \u013eud\u00ed naokolo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
„S\u00fa na\u0161e rozhodnutia a \u010diny postaven\u00e9 na z\u00e1klade viery, ktor\u00fa m\u00e1me v Boha a Jeho charakter, alebo s\u00fa postaven\u00e9 na rozpadaj\u00facom sa z\u00e1klade na\u0161ich schopnost\u00ed a na\u0161ej m\u00fadrosti?<\/strong>„<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Dokazuj\u00fa na\u0161e skutky na\u0161u vieru, alebo sk\u00f4r ukazuj\u00fa jej opak? S\u00fa na\u0161e rozhodnutia a \u010diny postaven\u00e9 na z\u00e1klade viery, ktor\u00fa m\u00e1me v Boha a Jeho charakter, alebo s\u00fa postaven\u00e9 na rozpadaj\u00facom sa z\u00e1klade na\u0161ich schopnost\u00ed a na\u0161ej m\u00fadrosti? Ako m\u00f4\u017eeme na\u0161u vieru v Boha posilni\u0165? Viera a d\u00f4vera sa buduje viacer\u00fdmi sp\u00f4sobmi:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Zo za\u010diatku, alebo do ur\u010ditej miery, m\u00f4\u017ee by\u0165 d\u00f4vera zalo\u017een\u00e1 na svedectve niekoho in\u00e9ho. Biblia je pln\u00e1 svedectiev o tom, \u010do Boh spravil, ak\u00fd je a ako dok\u00e1zal svoju d\u00f4veryhodnos\u0165. \u010c\u00edtajme si Bibliu, vyh\u013ead\u00e1vajme si tie pr\u00edbehy a sk\u00famajme, \u010do o Bohu hovorili \u013eudia.<\/li>
- D\u00f4veru tie\u017e budujeme na z\u00e1klade poznan\u00e9ho charakteru druhej osoby. Zase, \u010d\u00edtajme Bibliu, ale tentokr\u00e1t h\u013eadajme, \u010do o sebe hovor\u00ed s\u00e1m Boh. Ak\u00fd je? <\/li>
- \u010co ale d\u00f4veru asi buduje najviac, s\u00fa spolo\u010dn\u00e9 sk\u00fasenosti a z\u00e1\u017eitky. \u010co si ty osobne za\u017eil s Bohom? Kde, ako a kedy sa dok\u00e1zal v tvojom \u017eivote? Ako vst\u00fapil do situ\u00e1cie, v ktorej si u\u017e nevidel v\u00fdchodisko a postaral sa o v\u0161etko lep\u0161ie, ne\u017e si si v\u00f4bec vedel predstavi\u0165? Budujme na\u0161u d\u00f4veru v Boha na u\u017e pre\u017eit\u00fdch sk\u00fasenostiach.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
D\u00f4vera v Boha<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
A tak, na z\u00e1klade toho, \u010do o Bohu hovoria in\u00ed, \u010do o sebe hovor\u00ed On s\u00e1m a ak\u00e9 m\u00e1me s n\u00edm sk\u00fasenosti, \u010do n\u00e1m br\u00e1ni ma\u0165 v \u0148om pln\u00fa d\u00f4veru? A ak m\u00e1me t\u00fa d\u00f4veru, \u010do n\u00e1m br\u00e1ni na nej stava\u0165 n\u00e1\u0161 \u017eivot cez skutky a rozhodnutia? Mo\u017eno strach z neistoty, strach zo zlyhania, neochota vzda\u0165 sa nie\u010doho a obetova\u0165 to Bohu, alebo n\u00e1zory in\u00fdch. Nech to je ale \u010doko\u013evek, Bohu sa v\u017edy oplat\u00ed d\u00f4verova\u0165, lebo On nielen rozumie na\u0161im \u0165a\u017ekostiam a okolnostiam, ale m\u00e1 ich aj pod kontrolou. On vie, \u010do je najlep\u0161ie a ako mu m\u00f4\u017eeme prin\u00e1\u0161a\u0165 najviac sl\u00e1vy a chv\u00e1ly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
„Nebude to \u013eahk\u00e9 a mo\u017eno ani pr\u00edjemn\u00e9, ale veri\u0165 Bohu, skuto\u010dne veri\u0165, stoj\u00ed za to.<\/strong>„<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Mo\u017eno je pre teba ta\u017ek\u00e9 Bohu d\u00f4verova\u0165 so v\u0161etk\u00fdm a vo v\u0161etkom. Za\u010dni jednou vecou. Daj Bohu pr\u00edle\u017eitos\u0165 sa dok\u00e1za\u0165. Nebude to \u013eahk\u00e9 a mo\u017eno ani pr\u00edjemn\u00e9, ale veri\u0165 Bohu, skuto\u010dne veri\u0165, stoj\u00ed za to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
List \u017didom 11. kapitola n\u00e1m pribli\u017euje nieko\u013eko pr\u00edbehov, kedy \u013eudia verili Bohu a malo to ve\u013ek\u00fd vplyv. V nasleduj\u00facich \u010dl\u00e1nkoch tejto s\u00e9rie sa budeme u\u010di\u0165 z pr\u00edkladov t\u00fdchto \u013eud\u00ed. Ako oni \u017eili svoju vieru a \u010do si z toho m\u00f4\u017eeme konkr\u00e9tne zobra\u0165 do na\u0161ich osobn\u00fdch \u017eivotov a slu\u017eieb. V\u0161etko ale stoj\u00ed na z\u00e1klade viery a d\u00f4very v Boha. A tak ako oni, aj my, slu\u017eobn\u00edci Bo\u017e\u00ed, majme vieru, ktor\u00e1 je dok\u00e1zan\u00e1 na\u0161imi \u017eivotmi, skutkami a rozhodnutiami. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
