Comunhão com Deus
A comunhão com Deus é o propósito supremo da existência humana. Fomos criados para viver em intimidade com o Criador — e em Cristo, esse acesso é plenamente restaurado.
Em comunhão com Deus
Deus é fiel, pelo qual fostes chamados à comunhão de seu Filho. A comunhão com Deus é dom da graça e fruto da redenção.
faithful [is] God, through whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
Have you not known that you are a temple of God, and the Spirit of God dwells in you?
For even as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the one body, being many, are one body, so also [is] the Christ,
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, [is] with you all! Amen.
And what agreement to the temple of God with idols? For you are a temple of the living God, according as God said, "I will dwell in them, and will walk among [them], and I will be their God, and they will be My people,
so that if anyone [is] in Christ—[he is] a new creature; the old things passed away, behold, all things have become new. And all things [are] of God, who reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and gave to us the ministry of the reconciliation, how that God was in Christ—reconciling the world to Himself, not reckoning to them their trespasses; and having put in us the word of the reconciliation,
Presença divina
Eis que estou à porta e bato. O Senhor fez sua morada entre nós — e toda a criação é convidada à comunhão eterna.
behold, I have stood at the door, and I knock; if anyone may hear My voice, and may open the door, I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with Me.
and I heard a great voice out of Heaven, saying, "Behold, the dwelling place of God [is] with men, and He will dwell with them, and they will be His peoples, and God Himself will be with them [as] their God,
and I have dwelt in the midst of the sons of Israel, and have become their God,
for where there are two or three gathered together—to My Name, there am I in the midst of them."
And I do not ask in regard to these alone, but also in regard to those who will be believing in Me through their word, that they all may be one, as You Father [are] in Me, and I in You, that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. And I have given to them the glory that You have given to Me, that they may be one as We are one— I in them, and You in Me, that they may be perfected into one, and that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them as You loved Me.
Viver na comunhão
Quem permanece nele e ele no Senhor, esse dá muito fruto. A comunhão com Deus produz transformação e alegria.
and he who is keeping His commands, remains in Him, and He in him; and in this we know that He remains in us, from the Spirit that He gave us.
but we have known that the Son of God has come, and has given us a mind that we may know Him who is true, and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ; this One is the true God and the continuous Life!
in this we know that we remain in Him, and He in us, because of His Spirit He has given us.
Beloved, may we love one another, because love is of God, and everyone loving has been begotten of God, and knows God;
we declare to you that which we have seen and heard, that you also may have fellowship with us, and our fellowship [is] with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ;
And now, little children, remain in Him, so that when He may have appeared, we may have boldness, and may not be ashamed before Him, at His coming;
Having been declared righteous, then, by faith, we have peace toward God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have the access by faith into this grace in which we have stood, and we boast on the hope of the glory of God.
may we draw near with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, having the hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and having the body bathed with pure water;
Be subject, then, to God; stand up against the Devil, and he will flee from you; draw near to God, and He will draw near to you; cleanse hands, you sinners! And purify hearts, you split-souled!
