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 There is none holy as the Lord is: for there is no other beside thee, and there is none strong like our God.
22 Therefore thou art magnified, O Lord God, because there is none like to thee, neither is there any God besides thee, in all the things that we have heard with our ears.
4 For every house is built by some man: but he that created all things, is God.
1 For the hand of the Lord shall rest in this mountain: and Moab shall be trodden down under him, as straw is broken in pieces with the wain.
8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts: nor your ways my ways, saith 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 known, and have believed the charity, which God hath to us. God is charity: and he that abideth in charity, abideth in God, and God in him.
19 Let us therefore love God, because God first hath loved us.
20 If any man say, I love God, and hateth his brother; he is a liar. For he that loveth not his brother, whom he seeth, how can he love God, whom he seeth not?
12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abideth in us, and his charity is perfected in us.
17 The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty, he will save: he will rejoice over thee with gladness, he will be silent in his love, he will be joyful over thee in praise.
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 And when thou shalt seek there the Lord thy God, thou shalt find him: yet so, if thou seek him with all thy heart, and all the affliction of thy soul.
8 The angel of the Lord shall encamp round about them that fear him: and shall deliver them.
2 I have said to the Lord, thou art my God, for thou hast no need of my goods.
25 For what have I in heaven? and besides thee what do I desire upon earth?
3 My enemies have trodden on me all the day long; for they are many that make war against me.
3 Bow down thy ear to me: make haste to deliver me. Be thou unto me a God, a protector, and a house of refuge, to save me.
35 He that shall find me, shall find life, and shall have salvation from the Lord:
Viver com Deus
Sê forte e corajoso, porque o Senhor teu Deus é contigo. Em Deus encontramos a razão de existir.
9 Behold I command thee, take courage, end be strong. Fear not and be not dismayed: because the Lord thy God is with thee in all things whatsoever thou shalt go to.
13 I can do all these things in him who strengtheneth me.
4 Rejoice in the Lord always; again, I say, rejoice.
1 Arise, be enlightened, O Jerusalem: for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.
13 For I am the Lord thy God, who take thee by the hand, and say to thee: Fear not, I have helped thee.
10 Be humbled in the sight of the Lord, and he will exalt you.
7 Be not deceived, God is not mocked.
12 Honour thy father and thy mother, that thou mayest be longlived upon the land which the Lord thy God will give thee.
