5 momentos em que Jesus mostrou como amar ao próximo

44 But now listen to what I say to you: Love your enemies as well as your friends, and pray for those who cause you to suffer.

30 Jesus replied by telling him this illustration: "A Jewish man was once going down along the road from Jerusalem to Jericho. Bandits attacked him. They took away most of the man’s clothes and everything else that he had, and they beat him until he was almost dead. Then they left him. 31 It happened that a Jewish priest was going along that road. When he saw that man, instead of helping him, he passed by on the other side of the road. 32 Similarly, a man who worked in the temple in Jerusalem came to that place and saw the man. But he also passed by on the other side of the road. 33 Then a man from Samaria province came along that road to where the man was lying. People from Samaria despise Jews. But when he saw that man, he pitied him. 34 He went over to him and put some olive oil and wine on his wounds to help heal them. He wound strips of cloth around the wounds. He placed the man on his own donkey and took him to an inn and took care of him. 35 The next morning he gave two silver coins to the innkeeper and said, ‘Take care of this man. If you (sg) spend more than this amount to care for him, I will pay you back when I return.’" 36 Then Jesus said, "Three people saw the man whom bandits attacked. Which one of them acted in a loving way toward that man?" 37 The man who studied the Scriptures replied, "The one who acted mercifully toward him." Jesus said to him, "You (sg) go and act like that toward everyone whom you can help!"

3 Then men who taught the Jewish laws and some of [SYN] the Pharisee religious group brought a woman to him. She was seized {They had arranged to seize her} while she was having sex with a man who was not her husband. They made her stand up in front of the group that was listening to Jesus. 4 Then they said to Jesus, "Teacher, this woman was seized {we seized this woman} while she was having sex with a man who is not her husband. 5 Moses commanded us in the laws that he gave us that we should throw stones at such women and kill them. So what do you say we should do?" 6 They asked this question as a trap so that they could accuse him. If he said that they should not kill her, they would shame him for disobeying the law of Moses. If he said that they should kill her, they could accuse him to the Roman governor.

But Jesus bent down and wrote something on the ground with his finger. 7 While they continued to question him, he stood up and said to them, "Whichever one of you has never sinned can be the first one to start throwing stones at her." 8 Then he stooped down and wrote some more on the ground. 9 After they heard what he said, those who were questioning him went away, one by one, the older ones first and then the younger ones, knowing they were all sinners. Finally only Jesus was there, along with the woman. 10 Jesus stood up and asked her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one said you must die for your sin?" 11 She said, "No, sir, no one." Then Jesus said, "I do not condemn you either. Go home now, and do not continue your sinful life any longer!"]

Jesus healed from a distance a Roman officer’s servant because the officer trusted in him.

5 When Jesus went to Capernaum city, a Roman officer who commanded 100 soldiers came to him. He begged Jesus to help him. 6 He said to him, "Sir, my servant is lying in bed at home and is paralyzed, and he has severe pain." 7 Jesus said to him, "I will go to your house and heal him." 8 But the officer said to him, "Lord/Sir, do not bother to go. I am a non-Jew, so I am not worthy for you, a Jew, to come into my house [MTY] and associate with me. Instead, just command that my servant be healed, and he will be healed. 9 I believe this because, as for me, I am a man under the authority of others, and I also have soldiers under my authority. When I say to one of them ‘Go!’ he goes. When I say to another ‘Come!’ he comes. When I say to my slave, ‘Do this!’ he does it. And I believe that you speak with a similar kind of authority." 10 When Jesus heard this, he marveled. He said to the crowd that was walking with him, "Listen to this: I have never before found anyone who has as firm a faith in me as this non-Jewish man has. Not even in Israel, where I would expect people to believe in me, have I found anyone who has the kind of faith in me that he has! 11 I tell you truly that many other non-Jewish people who will believe in me like this Roman officer will come from distant countries, including those far to the east and far to the west [SYN], and they will sit down to eat with [MTY] Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in heaven, where God rules. 12 But the Jews [IDM] who should have allowed God to rule over them will be sent to hell, where there is total darkness. And as a result, they will weep because of their suffering and will grind their teeth because they will have severe pain [MTY]." 13 Then Jesus said to the officer, "Go home. What you believed would happen, that I would heal your servant from a distance, will happen." Then the officer went home and found out that his servant became well at the exact time that Jesus told him that he would heal him.

13 The best way that people can show that they love someone is to die for that person. There is no way that you can love someone in a greater way than that.
