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.
"There is no one holy like the Lord,
Indeed, there is no one besides You,
Nor is there any rock like our God.
For this reason You are great, Lord God; for there is no one like You, and there is no God except You, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God.
Lord, You are my God;
I will exalt You, I will give thanks to Your name;
For You have worked wonders,
Plans formed long ago, with perfect faithfulness.
"For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways My ways," declares 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.
We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who remains in love remains in God, and God remains in him.
We love, because He first loved us.
If someone says, "I love God," and yet he hates his brother or sister, he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother and sister whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen.
No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God remains in us, and His love is perfected in us.
"The Lord your God is in your midst,
A victorious warrior.
He will rejoice over you with joy,
He will be quiet in His love,
He will rejoice over you with shouts of joy.
Buscar a Deus
Buscareis o Senhor e o encontrareis quando o buscardes de todo o coração. Provai e vede que o Senhor é bom.
But from there you will seek the Lord your God, and you will find Him if you search for Him with all your heart and all your soul.
Taste and see that the Lord is good;
How blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him!
I said to the Lord, "You are my Lord;
I have nothing good besides You."
Whom do I have in heaven but You?
And with You, I desire nothing on earth.
When I am afraid,
I will put my trust in You.
For You are my rock and my fortress;
For the sake of Your name You will lead me and guide me.
"For one who finds me finds life,
And obtains favor from the Lord.
Viver com Deus
Sê forte e corajoso, porque o Senhor teu Deus é contigo. Em Deus encontramos a razão de existir.
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous! Do not be terrified nor dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."
I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.
Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice!
"Arise, shine; for your light has come,
And the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.
"For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand,
Who says to you, ‘Do not fear, I will help you.’
Humble yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you.
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a person sows, this he will also reap.
"Honor your father and your mother, so that your days may be prolonged on the land which the Lord your God gives you.
