Consequências dos nossos atos: o que colhemos
O que a Bíblia ensina sobre as consequências dos nossos atos
A Bíblia ensina que nenhuma ação acontece no vazio: cada escolha produz resultados imediatos e terá uma prestação de contas definitiva diante de Deus. O que você faz, decide ou fala gera frutos inevitáveis para a sua vida e para a vida de quem está ao redor.
A responsabilidade por essas consequências é sempre pessoal. Ninguém responde pelas faltas de outro, nem colhe de forma passiva aquilo que não plantou.
So then each one of us will give an account of himself to God.(Romans 14:12)
who will repay each person according to his deeds: to those who by perseverance in doing good seek glory, honor, and immortality, He will give eternal life; but to those who are self-serving and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, He will give wrath and indignation. There will be tribulation and distress for every soul of mankind who does evil, for the Jew first and also for the Greek, but glory, honor, and peace to everyone who does what is good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For there is no partiality with God.(Romans 2:6-11)
"Do not judge, so that you will not be judged.For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you.(Matthew 7:1,2)
As consequências das palavras e decisões precipitadas
As consequências não começam nos grandes erros públicos, mas na forma como você usa a fala e no discernimento antes de agir. Quem fala de forma descuidada ou assume compromissos sem avaliar o custo arca com as marcas da própria precipitação.
O princípio bíblico da prudência mostra que prever o perigo é parte da responsabilidade moral: agir por impulso traz danos que poderiam ser evitados com sabedoria.
But I tell you that for every careless word that people speak, they will give an account of it on the day of judgment.(Matthew 12:36)
A prudent person sees evil and hides himself,
But the naive proceed, and pay the penalty.(Proverbs 22:3)
If you are wise, you are wise for yourself,
And if you scoff, you alone will suffer from it.(Proverbs 9:12)
It is a trap for a person to say carelessly, "It is holy!"
And after the vows to make inquiry.(Proverbs 20:25)
Nada do que é feito em segredo fica sem resposta
A ilusão de que certos atos não têm consequências costuma nascer do silêncio imediato: comete-se o erro e nada parece acontecer de imediato. As Escrituras tratam isso como um engano mortal.
Deus examina motivações ocultas e conhece o coração humano em profundidade. O tempo não apaga a responsabilidade moral, e a justiça divina alcança tanto a omissão quanto o ato deliberado.
For the word of God is living and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, even penetrating as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are open and laid bare to the eyes of Him to whom we must answer.(Hebrews 4:12,13)
Why has the wicked treated God disrespectfully?
He has said to himself, "You will not require an account."
You have seen it, for You have looked at harm and provocation to take it into Your hand.
The unfortunate commits himself to You;
You have been the helper of the orphan.(Psalm 10:13,14)
"Now if a person sins and does any of the things which the Lord has commanded not to be done, though he was unaware, he is still guilty and shall bear his punishment.(Leviticus 5:17)
I certainly will require your lifeblood; from every animal I will require it. And from every person, from every man as his brother I will require the life of a person.(Genesis 9:5)
