Egoísmo

Por Bíblia Online

O egoísmo é o oposto do amor cristão. Jesus nos ensinou a negar a nós mesmos, tomar a cruz e segui-lo. A vida cristã é vida de entrega, serviço e generosidade.

Negar-se a si mesmo

Se alguém quer vir após mim, negue-se a si mesmo. O caminho de Cristo é o caminho da auto-entrega e do serviço.

34 And when he had called the people to him, with his disciples also, he said to them, Whosoever is willing to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow me.

31 This is the first commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is no other commandment greater than these.

20 I am crucified with Christ, and I live no longer, but Christ liveth in me, and the life that I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

3 Do nothing through strife or vain-glory, but in lowliness of mind, esteem each the others better than themselves.

24 But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life precious to myself, so I may finish my course with joy, and the ministry which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

Viver para os outros

Ninguém busque o próprio interesse, mas o do próximo. O amor não busca os seus próprios interesses.

4 Love suffereth long and is kind; love envieth not; love acteth not rashly, is not puffed up:5 Doth not behave indecently, seeketh not her own, is not provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not at iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth:

18 Let none deceive himself: if any one among you thinketh himself to be wise, let him become a fool in this world, that he may become wise.

2 Let every one of us please his neighbour, for his good, to edification.

16 For where bitter zeal and strife is, there is unquietness and every evil work.
