Deus
Deus é a realidade suprema do universo — o criador, sustentador e redentor de tudo o que existe. Conhecê-lo é a essência da vida eterna e o maior privilégio da existência humana.
Quem é Deus
Não há santo como o Senhor. Tu és grande e fazes maravilhas — só tu és Deus. Sua majestade transcende toda compreensão.
2 No other is holy as the Lord, for there is no other God but you: there is no Rock like our God.
22 Truly you are great, O Lord God: there is no one like you and no other God but you, as is clear from everything which has come to our ears.
4 For every house has a builder; but the builder of all things is God.
1 O Lord, you are my God; I will give praise to you, I will give honour to your name; for you have done great acts of power; your purposes in the past have been made true and certain in effect.
8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, or your ways my ways, says the Lord.
Deus é amor
Deus é amor. Quem permanece no amor permanece em Deus e Deus nele. Nós amamos porque Ele nos amou primeiro.
16 And we have seen and had faith in the love which God has for us. God is love, and everyone who has love is in God, and God is in him.
19 We have the power of loving, because he first had love for us.
20 If a man says, I have love for God, and has hate for his brother, his words are false: for how is the man who has no love for his brother whom he has seen, able to have love for God whom he has not seen?
12 No man has ever seen God: if we have love for one another, God is in us and his love is made complete in us:
17 The Lord your God is among you, as a strong saviour: he will be glad over you with joy, he will make his love new again, he will make a song of joy over you as in the time of a holy feast.
Buscar a Deus
Buscareis o Senhor e o encontrareis quando o buscardes de todo o coração. Provai e vede que o Senhor é bom.
29 But if in those lands you are turned again to the Lord your God, searching for him with all your heart and soul, he will not keep himself from you.
8 \34:7\The angel of the Lord is ever watching over those who have fear of him, to keep them safe.
2 O my soul, you have said to the Lord, You are my Lord: I have no good but you.
25 Whom have I in heaven but you? and having you I have no desire for anything on earth.
3 \56:2\My haters are ever ready to put an end to me; great numbers are lifting themselves up against me.
3 \31:2\Let your ear be turned to me; take me quickly out of danger; be my strong Rock, my place of strength where I may be safe.
35 For whoever gets me gets life, and grace from the Lord will come to him.
Viver com Deus
Sê forte e corajoso, porque o Senhor teu Deus é contigo. Em Deus encontramos a razão de existir.
9 Have I not given you your orders? Take heart and be strong; have no fear and do not be troubled; for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go,
13 I am able to do all things through him who gives me strength.
4 Be glad in the Lord at all times: again I say, Be glad.
1 Up! let your face be bright, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord is shining on you.
13 For I, the Lord your God, have taken your right hand in mine, saying to you, Have no fear; I will be your helper.
10 Make yourselves low in the eyes of the Lord and you will be lifted up by him.
7 Be not tricked; God is not made sport of: for whatever seed a man puts in, that will he get back as grain.
12 Give honour to your father and to your mother, so that your life may be long in the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
