Conversão

Por Bíblia Online –

A conversão é o ato de se voltar para Deus — arrependendo-se do pecado e abraçando a graça. É o início de uma vida nova, transformada pelo amor de Cristo.

Arrependei-vos

Arrependei-vos e convertei-vos para que os vossos pecados sejam apagados. A conversão começa com a mudança de mente e coração.

19 Repent ye therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, that the times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord,

38 And Peter said, Repent, and be baptized every one of you, in the name of Jesus, for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

30 The times of ignorance indeed God overlooked; but he now commandeth all men every where to repent.

17 From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

8 Bring forth therefore fruit worthy of repentance:

15 Saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.

O amor de Deus converte

Céu se alegra por um pecador que se arrepende. Deus não deseja a morte do ímpio, mas que se converta e viva.

7 I say to you, Thus joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, who do not need repentance.

10 Thus, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God, over one sinner that repenteth.

32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

9 The Lord is not slow concerning his promise (tho' some men count it slowness) but is long-suffering toward us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

Transformação

Voltai-vos para mim e sereis salvos! Rasgai o coração e não as vestes. A verdadeira conversão transforma o interior.

19 Whomsoever I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous and repent.

5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth, fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry:

13 Neither present your members to sin, as instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and your members to God, as instruments of righteousness.

1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in any fault, ye who are spiritual restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.

21 Therefore laying aside all the filthiness and superfluity of wickedness, receive with meekness the ingrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
