2 Corinthiens 12.1

Chapitre 12.

1 à 10 Gloire du ciel et écharde en la chair.

"Me glorifier est nécessaire (à cause de vous)...bien que cela ne me convienne pas ; j'en viendrai en effet..." Encore une confirmation de ce qui a été dit à ce sujet. (2Corinthiens 11.1, note ; 2Corinthiens 11.16, note.) Aussi l'apôtre ne veut-il se glorifier que dans ses infirmités. (verset 5)

Toutefois, si des hommes aussi peu spirituels que les faux apôtres et les âmes qu'ils pouvaient avoir séduites, n'ont pas su reconnaître dans ce qui précède la vie d'un vrai serviteur de Jésus-Christ, s'ils exigent d'autres preuves, des révélations extraordinaires, des signes, des miracles, tout cela abonde encore dans la vie de Paul, (versets 2-4,12) et il le montre.

- La leçon du texte reçu "certainement il ne me convient pas de me glorifier" a contre elle les meilleures autorités.

Visions et révélations se distinguent peut-être les unes des autres en ce que les premières ont lieu dans l'esprit de l'homme par des images, (comme Actes 10.9 et suivants) tandis que les dernières sont des communications plus explicites par la parole. (Ainsi Actes 9.1 et suivants ; Actes 27.23 et suivants) Les deux sortes de manifestations se trouvent réunies dans Actes 18.9,10.

      6 He said, "Hear now my words. If there is a prophet among you, I Yahweh will make myself known to him in a vision. I will speak with him in a dream.

      Ezéchiel 1

      1 Now it happened in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth of the month, as I was among the captives by the river Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God .
      2 In the fifth of the month, which was the fifth year of king Jehoiachin's captivity,
      3 the word of Yahweh came expressly to Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and the hand of Yahweh was there on him.
      4 I looked, and behold, a stormy wind came out of the north, a great cloud, with flashing lightning, and a brightness around it, and out of its midst as it were glowing metal, out of the midst of the fire.
      5 Out of its midst came the likeness of four living creatures. This was their appearance: they had the likeness of a man.
      6 Everyone had four faces, and each one of them had four wings.
      7 Their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf's foot; and they sparkled like burnished brass.
      8 They had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides; and the four of them had their faces and their wings thus:
      9 their wings were joined one to another; they didn't turn when they went; each one went straight forward.
      10 As for the likeness of their faces, they had the face of a man; and the four of them had the face of a lion on the right side; and the four of them had the face of an ox on the left side; the four of them also had the face of an eagle.
      11 Such were their faces. Their wings were spread out above. Two wings of each one touched another, and two covered their bodies.
      12 Each one went straight forward: where the spirit was to go, they went; they didn't turn when they went.
      13 As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, like the appearance of torches: the fire went up and down among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning.
      14 The living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.
      15 Now as I saw the living creatures, behold, one wheel on the earth beside the living creatures, for each of the four faces of it.
      16 The appearance of the wheels and their work was like a beryl: and the four of them had one likeness; and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel within a wheel.
      17 When they went, they went in their four directions: they didn't turn when they went.
      18 As for their rims, they were high and dreadful; and the four of them had their rims full of eyes all around.
      19 When the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them; and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up.
      20 Wherever the spirit was to go, they went; there was the spirit to go: and the wheels were lifted up beside them; for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
      21 When those went, these went; and when those stood, these stood; and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up beside them: for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
      22 Over the head of the living creature there was the likeness of an expanse, like the awesome crystal to look on, stretched forth over their heads above.
      23 Under the expanse were their wings straight, the one toward the other: each one had two which covered on this side, and every one had two which covered on that side, their bodies.
      24 When they went, I heard the noise of their wings like the noise of great waters, like the voice of the Almighty, a noise of tumult like the noise of an army: when they stood, they let down their wings.
      25 There was a voice above the expanse that was over their heads: when they stood, they let down their wings.
      26 Above the expanse that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone; and on the likeness of the throne was a likeness as the appearance of a man on it above.
      27 I saw as it were glowing metal, as the appearance of fire within it all around, from the appearance of his waist and upward; and from the appearance of his waist and downward I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and there was brightness around him.
      28 As the appearance of the rainbow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness all around. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of Yahweh. When I saw it, I fell on my face, and I heard a voice of one that spoke.

      Ezéchiel 11

      24 The Spirit lifted me up, and brought me in the vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to them of the captivity. So the vision that I had seen went up from me.

      Daniel 10

      5 I lifted up my eyes, and looked, and behold, a man clothed in linen, whose thighs were adorned with pure gold of Uphaz:
      6 his body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as flaming torches, and his arms and his feet like burnished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.
      7 I, Daniel, alone saw the vision; for the men who were with me didn't see the vision; but a great quaking fell on them, and they fled to hide themselves.
      8 So I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me; for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength.
      9 Yet heard I the voice of his words; and when I heard the voice of his words, then was I fallen into a deep sleep on my face, with my face toward the ground.
      10 Behold, a hand touched me, which set me on my knees and on the palms of my hands.

      Joël 2

      28 "It will happen afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will prophesy. Your old men will dream dreams. Your young men will see visions.
      29 And also on the servants and on the handmaids in those days, I will pour out my Spirit.

      Jean 16

      7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth: It is to your advantage that I go away, for if I don't go away, the Counselor won't come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.

      Jean 18

      14 Now it was Caiaphas who advised the Jews that it was expedient that one man should perish for the people.

      Actes 9

      10 Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus named Ananias. The Lord said to him in a vision, "Ananias!" He said, "Behold, it's me, Lord."
      11 The Lord said to him, "Arise, and go to the street which is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judah for one named Saul, a man of Tarsus. For behold, he is praying,
      12 and in a vision he has seen a man named Ananias coming in, and laying his hands on him, that he might receive his sight."
      13 But Ananias answered, "Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he did to your saints at Jerusalem.
      14 Here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on your name."
      15 But the Lord said to him, "Go your way, for he is my chosen vessel to bear my name before the nations and kings, and the children of Israel.
      16 For I will show him how many things he must suffer for my name's sake."
      17 Ananias departed, and entered into the house. Laying his hands on him, he said, "Brother Saul, the Lord, who appeared to you on the road by which you came, has sent me, that you may receive your sight, and be filled with the Holy Spirit."

      Actes 18

      9 The Lord said to Paul in the night by a vision, "Don't be afraid, but speak and don't be silent;

      Actes 22

      17 "It happened that, when I had returned to Jerusalem, and while I prayed in the temple, I fell into a trance,
      18 and saw him saying to me, 'Hurry and get out of Jerusalem quickly, because they will not receive testimony concerning me from you.'
      19 I said, 'Lord, they themselves know that I imprisoned and beat in every synagogue those who believed in you.
      20 When the blood of Stephen, your witness, was shed, I also was standing by, and consenting to his death, and guarding the cloaks of those who killed him.'
      21 "He said to me, 'Depart, for I will send you out far from here to the Gentiles.'"

      Actes 23

      11 The following night, the Lord stood by him, and said, "Cheer up, Paul, for as you have testified about me at Jerusalem, so you must testify also at Rome."

      Actes 26

      13 at noon, O king, I saw on the way a light from the sky, brighter than the sun, shining around me and those who traveled with me.
      14 When we had all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew language, 'Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.'
      15 "I said, 'Who are you, Lord?' "He said, 'I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting.
      16 But arise, and stand on your feet, for I have appeared to you for this purpose: to appoint you a servant and a witness both of the things which you have seen, and of the things which I will reveal to you;
      17 delivering you from the people, and from the Gentiles, to whom I send you,
      18 to open their eyes, that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive remission of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in me.'
      19 "Therefore, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision,

      1 Corinthiens 6

      12 "All things are lawful for me," but not all things are expedient. "All things are lawful for me," but I will not be brought under the power of anything.

      1 Corinthiens 10

      23 "All things are lawful for me," but not all things are profitable. "All things are lawful for me," but not all things build up.

      2 Corinthiens 8

      10 I give a judgment in this: for this is expedient for you, who were the first to start a year ago, not only to do, but also to be willing.

      2 Corinthiens 11

      16 I say again, let no one think me foolish. But if so, yet receive me as foolish, that I also may boast a little.
      17 That which I speak, I don't speak according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this confidence of boasting.
      18 Seeing that many boast after the flesh, I will also boast.
      19 For you bear with the foolish gladly, being wise.
      20 For you bear with a man, if he brings you into bondage, if he devours you, if he takes you captive, if he exalts himself, if he strikes you on the face.
      21 I speak by way of disparagement, as though we had been weak. Yet however any is bold (I speak in foolishness), I am bold also.
      22 Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? So am I.
      23 Are they servants of Christ? (I speak as one beside himself) I am more so; in labors more abundantly, in prisons more abundantly, in stripes above measure, in deaths often.
      24 Five times from the Jews I received forty stripes minus one.
      25 Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I suffered shipwreck. I have been a night and a day in the deep.
      26 I have been in travels often, perils of rivers, perils of robbers, perils from my countrymen, perils from the Gentiles, perils in the city, perils in the wilderness, perils in the sea, perils among false brothers;
      27 in labor and travail, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, and in cold and nakedness.
      28 Besides those things that are outside, there is that which presses on me daily, anxiety for all the assemblies.
      29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is caused to stumble, and I don't burn with indignation?
      30 If I must boast, I will boast of the things that concern my weakness.

      2 Corinthiens 12

      1 It is doubtless not profitable for me to boast. For I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.
      7 By reason of the exceeding greatness of the revelations, that I should not be exalted excessively, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me, that I should not be exalted excessively.
      11 I have become foolish in boasting. You compelled me, for I ought to have been commended by you, for in nothing was I inferior to the very best apostles, though I am nothing.

      Galates 1

      12 For neither did I receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came to me through revelation of Jesus Christ.

      Galates 2

      2 I went up by revelation, and I laid before them the Good News which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately before those who were respected, for fear that I might be running, or had run, in vain.

      Ephésiens 3

      3 how that by revelation the mystery was made known to me, as I wrote before in few words,

      1 Jean 5

      20 We know that the Son of God has come, and has given us an understanding, that we know him who is true, and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
