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.
1 Be, therefore, imitators of God, as beloved children;
5 Now let this disposition be in you which was also in Christ Jesus;6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not affect to appear in divine majesty;7 but divested himself, taking upon him the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men;8 and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient to death, even the death of the cross.
1 Become imitators of me, even as I also am of Christ.
6 And you became imitators of us, and of the Lord, having embraced the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit.
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.
24 God is Spirit, and they that worship him, must worship him in spirit and truth.
