5 momentos em que Jesus mostrou como amar ao próximo

44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,*BYZ and TR love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully accuse you and persecute you; see Luke 6:27–28.

30 Jesus took up this question and said, "A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho when he fell into the hands of robbers. They stripped him, beat him, and went away, leaving him half dead.

31 Now by chance a priest was going down the same road, but when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

32 So too, when a Levite came to that spot and saw him, he passed by on the other side.

33 But a Samaritan on a journey came upon him, and when he saw him, he had compassion. 34 He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

35 The next day he took out two denarii*A denarius was customarily a day’s wage for a laborer; see Matthew 20:2. and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Take care of him,’ he said, ‘and on my return I will repay you for any additional expense.’

36 Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?"

37 "The one who showed him mercy," replied the expert in the law.

Then Jesus told him, "Go and do likewise."

3 The scribes and Pharisees, however, brought to Him a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before them 4 and said, "Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. 5 In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such a woman. So what do You say?"

6 They said this to test Him, in order to have a basis for accusing Him. But Jesus bent down and began to write on the ground with His finger.

7 When they continued to question Him, He straightened up and said to them, "Let him who is without sin among you be the first to cast a stone at her." 8 And again He bent down and wrote on the ground.

9 When they heard this,* they began to go away one by one, beginning with the older ones, until only Jesus was left, with the woman standing there. 10 Then Jesus straightened up* and asked her, "Woman, where are your accusers?*WH and NA where are they Has no one condemned you?"

11 "No one, Lord," she answered.

"Then neither do I condemn you," Jesus declared. "Now go and sin no more."

The Faith of the Centurion

5 When Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came and pleaded with Him, 6 "Lord, my servant* lies at home, paralyzed and in terrible agony."

7 "I will go and heal him," Jesus replied.

8 The centurion answered, "Lord, I am not worthy to have You come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed. 9 For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell one to go, and he goes, and another to come, and he comes. I tell my servant to do something, and he does it."

10 When Jesus heard this, He marveled and said to those following Him, "Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith. 11 I say to you that many will come from the east and the west to share the banquet with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. 12 But the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth."

13 Then Jesus said to the centurion, "Go! As you have believed, so will it be done for you." And his servant was healed at that very hour.

13 Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.
