Filho de Deus
Jesus é o Filho de Deus — a revelação suprema do Pai. Nele habita toda a plenitude da divindade e por Ele temos acesso ao Pai, à salvação e à vida eterna.
A revelação do Filho
O Filho é o resplendor da glória de Deus. Quem vê o Filho vê o Pai. Jesus é a imagem perfeita do Deus invisível.
He reflects the brightness of God’s glory and is the exact likeness of God’s own being, sustaining the universe with his powerful word. After achieving forgiveness for the sins of all human beings, he sat down in heaven at the right side of God, the Supreme Power.
The Son was made greater than the angels, just as the name that God gave him is greater than theirs.
The Word became a human being and, full of grace and truth, lived among us. We saw his glory, the glory which he received as the Father’s only Son.
No one has ever seen God. The only Son, who is the same as God and is at the Father’s side, he has made him known.
Jesus answered them, "My Father is always working, and I too must work."
This saying made the Jewish authorities all the more determined to kill him; not only had he broken the Sabbath law, but he had said that God was his own Father and in this way had made himself equal with God.
Confissão e fé
Tu és o Cristo, o Filho do Deus vivo! Quem confessa que Jesus é o Filho de Deus, Deus permanece nele.
Jesus went to the territory near the town of Caesarea Philippi, where he asked his disciples, "Who do people say the Son of Man is?"
"Some say John the Baptist," they answered. "Others say Elijah, while others say Jeremiah or some other prophet."
"What about you?" he asked them. "Who do you say I am?"
Simon Peter answered, "You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God."
As soon as Jesus was baptized, he came up out of the water. Then heaven was opened to him, and he saw the Spirit of God coming down like a dove and lighting on him. Then a voice said from heaven, "This is my own dear Son, with whom I am pleased."
If we declare that Jesus is the Son of God, we live in union with God and God lives in union with us.
And God showed his love for us by sending his only Son into the world, so that we might have life through him. This is what love is: it is not that we have loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the means by which our sins are forgiven.
Whoever continues to sin belongs to the Devil, because the Devil has sinned from the very beginning. The Son of God appeared for this very reason, to destroy what the Devil had done.
Whoever has the Son has this life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.
Vida no Filho
Deus enviou seu Filho ao mundo para que vivêssemos por Ele. O Filho dá vida, julga e reconcilia os pecadores com o Pai.
For God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not die but have eternal life.
Just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, in the same way the Son gives life to those he wants to. Nor does the Father himself judge anyone. He has given his Son the full right to judge, so that all will honor the Son in the same way as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.
I am telling you the truth: the time is coming—the time has already come—when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear it will come to life. Just as the Father is himself the source of life, in the same way he has made his Son to be the source of life.
Some, however, did receive him and believed in him; so he gave them the right to become God’s children. They did not become God’s children by natural means, that is, by being born as the children of a human father; God himself was their Father.
so that it is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me. This life that I live now, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave his life for me.
But when the right time finally came, God sent his own Son. He came as the son of a human mother and lived under the Jewish Law, to redeem those who were under the Law, so that we might become God’s children.
To show that you are his children, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who cries out, "Father, my Father."
We were God’s enemies, but he made us his friends through the death of his Son. Now that we are God’s friends, how much more will we be saved by Christ’s life!
A child is born to us!
A son is given to us!
And he will be our ruler.
He will be called, "Wonderful Counselor,"
"Mighty God," "Eternal Father,"
"Prince of Peace."
