Sermos imitadores de Cristo

Ser imitador de Cristo é o chamado supremo do cristão. Paulo exortou: 'Sede meus imitadores, como eu sou de Cristo.' Fomos criados à imagem de Deus para refletir seu caráter.

Imitar a Cristo

Sede imitadores de Deus como filhos amados. Cristo se esvaziou e se humilhou — esse é o padrão que devemos seguir.

Imitators of God

1 Therefore become imitators of God, as beloved children,

Efésios 5:1

Christ’s Humiliation and Exaltation

5 Think this in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus,

6 who, existing in the form of God,

did not consider being equal with God something to be grasped,

7 but emptied himself

by taking the form of a slave,

by becoming in the likeness of people.

And being found in appearance like a man,

8 he humbled himself

by becoming obedient to the point of death,

that is, death on a cross.

Filipenses 2:5-8

Concerning Head Coverings in Worship

1 Become imitators of me, just as I also am of Christ.

1 Coríntios 11:1

6 And you became imitators of us and of the Lord, receiving the word in much affliction, with the joy of the Holy Spirit,

1 Tessalonicenses 1:6

Criados à imagem de Deus

Deus nos criou à sua imagem e semelhança. Adorar em espírito e verdade é viver refletindo o caráter do Criador.

26 And God said, "Let us make humankind in our image and according to our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of heaven, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every moving thing that moves upon the earth."
