Inspire-se nos ensinamentos de Jesus, afinal, atos de amor ajudam a espalhar a Palavra.
1. Ore pelos seus inimigos
But I say to you, Love your enemies, and offer tefillos (prayers) for the ones bringing redifah (persecution) upon you.
A misericórdia salva!
Jesus ensinou que devemos amar não apenas aqueles que nos amam, mas também nossos inimigos ou quem consideramos inimigos, mesmo que sem absoluta certeza.
1. O Bom Samaritano
In reply, Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach said, A certain ish was coming down from Yerushalayim to Yericho, and he encountered shodedim. They stripped him and inflicted a klap, more than one, and they went away and left him half dead. It so happened that a certain kohen was coming down by that derech, and, having seen him, he passed by on the other side. And likewise also a Levi happened upon the place, but when he came and saw him, he passed by on the other side. But a certain Shomroni, traveling along on the derech, came upon him; and when he saw him, he was filled with rachmei shomayim. And when this Shomroni approached, he bandaged the manʼs wounds, pouring shemen and yayin over them; and when he had placed him upon his own donkey, he brought the man to a malon and cared for him. And on the next day he produced two denarii and gave them to the inn keeper of the malon and said, Take care of him, and whatever you spend additionally, I will take care of, when I return. Who of these shalosha seems to you to have become a re’a to the one having fallen among the shodedim? And the Baal Torah answered, The one having shown the man rachamim. And Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach said to him, Go and do likewise.
O verdadeiro amor transcende barreiras!
Em Lucas 10:30-37, Jesus conta a parábola do Bom Samaritano. Um homem é assaltado e deixado quase morto. Dois passam por ele sem ajudá-lo, mas um samaritano, considerado inimigo dos judeus, oferece ajuda ao desamparado. Jesus explica que o verdadeiro amor ao próximo transcende barreiras culturais e preconceitos, encorajando-nos a agir com compaixão para com todos.
3. A Mulher Adúltera
And the Sofrim and the Perushim led an isha (woman) having been caught in ni’uf (adultery) and, having stood her in the midst, They say to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, Rabbi, this isha (woman) has been caught in the act of committing ni’uf (adultery). Now in our Torah Moshe Rabbeinu gave us a mitzvah to stone such nashim. You, therefore, what do you say? But this they were saying to put a nissayon before Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach that they might have something about which to accuse him, but he, having stooped down with his finger, was writing on the ground. But as they were remaining, questioning him, he stood up and said to them, The one without chet (sin) among you, at her let him be first to throw a stone. And again, having stooped down, he was writing on the ground. And the ones having heard were departing, one by one, beginning with the zekenim, and he was left alone with the isha standing before him. And having stood up, he said to her, Isha, where are they? Does no one condemn you? And she said, No one, Adoni. And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, Neither do I condemn you. Go and practice chet no more.
Perdão e compaixão acima de tudo!
Em João 8:3-11, Jesus encontra uma mulher acusada de adultério, prestes a ser apedrejada. Diferente dos demais, Ele não a condena, mas desafia os acusadores, dizendo:
"Aquele que dentre vós está sem pecado seja o primeiro que atire pedra contra ela."
Todos vão embora, e Jesus salva e orienta a mulher, mostrando um exemplo poderoso de perdão e compaixão.
4. O Servo do Centurião
Now when Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach entered into K’far-Nachum, a centurion approached him, begging him and saying, Adoneinu, my servant has been bedridden in the house, paralyzed, in terrible tza’ar. And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to him, I am coming. I will bring him refuah (healing). The centurion answered, Adoneinu, I am not worthy that you might come under my roof, but only say the dvar, and my servant will receive the refuah (healing). For I also am a man under marut (authority), having soldiers subordinate to myself, and I say to this one, Go! And he goes, and to another, Come! And he comes, and to my servant, Do this! And he does it. And having heard this, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was amazed and said to those who followed him, Omein, I say to you, in no one in Yisroel have I found such great emunah. And I say to you, that many from the mizrach (east) and the maarav (west) will come and will sit bimesibba (reclining at tish) with Avraham and Yitzchak and Ya’akov in the Malchut HaShomayim. But the Bnei HaMalchut will be thrown out into the outer choshech (darkness), where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth. And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to the centurion, Go! According to your bitachon (trust), your emunah (faith), let it be for you. And his servant was given refuah (healing) punkt (exactly) at that hour.
Fé que move montanhas!
Em Mateus 8:5-13, um centurião prova a sua fé, acreditando que Jesus pode curar seu servo apenas com uma palavra. Jesus, impressionado com a fé do centurião, cura o servo.
Este ato de amor e cura mostra que Jesus ajuda a todos, independentemente de origem, posição social ou qualquer outra classificação. Ele é misericordioso sem ver a quem.
5. O Sacrifício na Cruz
Ahavah (agape) gedolah than this no one has, that someone lay down his neshamah for his chaverim.
O maior ato de amor ao próximo!
O maior ato de amor ao próximo foi feito por Cristo na Cruz para que pudéssemos ser salvos. Em João 15:13, Jesus disse:
"Ninguém tem maior amor do que este, de dar alguém a sua vida pelos seus amigos."
Lembre-se sempre de agradecer pelo sacrifício de Jesus, que deu sua vida na Terra por nós, a humanidade.
