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.
None is holy as the Lord is; for none other is, except thee, and none is strong as our God.
Therefore, Lord God, thou art made great, for none is like thee, nor there is no God except thee, in all things which we have heard with our ears.
For each house is made of some man; he that made all things of nought is God.
Lord, thou art my God, I shall enhance thee, and I shall acknowledge to thy name; for thou hast done marvels, thine eld [or old] faithful thoughts. Amen.
For why my thoughts be not your thoughts, and my ways be not your 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.
And we have known, and believe to the charity, that God hath in us. God is charity, and he that dwelleth in charity, dwelleth in God, and God in him.
Therefore love we God, for he loved us before [or he former loved us].
If any man saith, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar. For he that loveth not his brother, whom he seeth, how may he love God, whom he seeth not?
No man saw ever God; if we love together, God dwelleth in us, and the charity of him is perfect in us.
Thy Lord God is strong in the middle of thee, he shall save [thee]; he shall make joy on thee in gladness, he shall be still in thy loving, he shall make joy withoutforth on thee in praising.
Buscar a Deus
Buscareis o Senhor e o encontrareis quando o buscardes de todo o coração. Provai e vede que o Senhor é bom.
And when thou hast sought there thy Lord God, thou shalt find him; if nevertheless thou seekest him with all thy heart, and with all the tribulation of thy soul.
Taste ye, and see, for the Lord is sweet; blessed is the man, that hopeth in him.
I said to the Lord, Thou art my God; for thou hast no need of my goods.
For why what is to me in heaven; and what would or desire I of thee on earth?
Of the highness of day I shall dread; but God, I shall hope in thee.
For thou art my strength and my refuge; and for thy name, thou shalt lead me forth, and shalt nourish me.
He that findeth me, shall find life; and he shall draw health of the Lord.
Viver com Deus
Sê forte e corajoso, porque o Senhor teu Deus é contigo. Em Deus encontramos a razão de existir.
Lo! I command to thee; be thou comforted, and be thou strong; do not thou dread, nor be thou afeared; for thy Lord God is with thee in all things, to which thou goest.
I may all things in him that comforteth me.
Joy ye in the Lord evermore; again I say, joy ye.
Rise thou, Jerusalem, be thou lightened [or lighted], for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen on thee.
For I am thy Lord God, taking thine hand, and saying to thee, Dread thou not, I helped thee.
Be ye meeked in the sight of the Lord, and he shall enhance you.
Do not ye err, God is not scorned; for those things that a man soweth, those things he shall reap.
Honour thy father and thy mother, that thou be long living on the land, which thy Lord God shall give to thee.
