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.
No one is holy like the Lord!
There is no one besides you;
there is no Rock like our God.
"How great you are, O Sovereign Lord! There is no one like you. We have never even heard of another God like you!
For every house has a builder, but the one who built everything is God.
O Lord, I will honor and praise your name,
for you are my God.
You do such wonderful things!
You planned them long ago,
and now you have accomplished them.
"My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts," says the Lord.
"And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine.
Deus é amor
Deus é amor. Quem permanece no amor permanece em Deus e Deus nele. Nós amamos porque Ele nos amou primeiro.
We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love.
God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them.
We love each other because he loved us first.
If someone says, "I love God," but hates a fellow believer, that person is a liar; for if we don’t love people we can see, how can we love God, whom we cannot see?
No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is brought to full expression in us.
For the Lord your God is living among you.
He is a mighty savior.
He will take delight in you with gladness.
With his love, he will calm all your fears.
He will rejoice over you with joyful songs."
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 search again for the Lord your God. And if you search for him with all your heart and soul, you will find him.
Taste and see that the Lord is good.
Oh, the joys of those who take refuge in him!
I said to the Lord, "You are my Master!
Every good thing I have comes from you."
Whom have I in heaven but you?
I desire you more than anything on earth.
But when I am afraid,
I will put my trust in you.
You are my rock and my fortress.
For the honor of your name, lead me out of this danger.
For whoever finds me finds life
and receives 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.
This is my command—be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."
For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.
Always be full of joy in the Lord. I say it again—rejoice!
"Arise, Jerusalem! Let your light shine for all to see.
For the glory of the Lord rises to shine on you.
For I hold you by your right hand—
I, the Lord your God.
And I say to you,
‘Don’t be afraid. I am here to help you.
Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up in honor.
Don’t be misled—you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant.
"Honor your father and mother. Then you will live a long, full life in the land the Lord your God is giving you.
