Justiça
A justiça é atributo de Deus e vocação do cristão. A Bíblia chama os crentes a buscar a justiça, praticar o que é reto e confiar no Deus que julga justamente.
Buscar a justiça
Buscai primeiro o Reino de Deus e a sua justiça. Quem semeia justiça colherá galardão seguro e duradouro.
But seek first the kingdom of GodSBL, WH, and NE seek first His kingdom; see also Luke 12:31. and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you.
The wicked man earns an empty wage,
but he who sows righteousness reaps a true reward.
He who pursues righteousness and loving devotion
finds life, righteousness, and honor.
To do righteousness and justice
is more desirable to the LORD than sacrifice.
All a man’s ways seem right to him,
but the LORD weighs the heart.
Ill-gotten treasures profit nothing,
but righteousness brings deliverance from death.
Justiça em Cristo
Deus tornou Cristo a nossa justiça. Pela fé somos declarados justos diante de Deus — não por obras, mas pela graça.
God made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.
God’s Grace Brings Salvation
For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to everyone. It instructs us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live sensible, upright, and godly lives in the present age,
Fight the Good Fight
But you, O man of God, flee from these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness.
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable — if anything is excellent or praiseworthy — think on these things.
Do not be deceived: God is not to be mocked. Whatever a man sows, he will reap in return.
Let us not grow weary in well-doing, for in due time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
Praticar a justiça
O fruto da justiça semeia-se em paz para os que promovem a paz. Os olhos do Senhor estão sobre os justos.
Peacemakers who sow in peace reap the fruit of righteousness.
Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power to prevail.
Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
For the LORD loves justice
and will not forsake His saints.
They are preserved forever,
but the offspring of the wicked will be cut off.
The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous,
and His ears are inclined to their cry.
Surely he will never be shaken;
the righteous man will be remembered forever.
The Two Paths
Blessed is the man
who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked,
or set foot on the path of sinners,
or sit in the seat of mockers.
With all my heart I have sought You;
do not let me stray from Your commandments.
Consequências
O Senhor recompensará cada um segundo suas obras. A justiça exalta a nação e traz segurança aos que a praticam.
God "will repay each one according to his deeds."
Make sure that no one repays evil for evil. Always pursue what is good for one another and for all people.
Suffering for Righteousness
But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. "Do not fear what they fear; do not be shaken."
If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do the same.
It is a trap for a man to dedicate something rashly,
only later to reconsider his vows.
