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 His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be provided to you.
A wicked person earns deceptive wages,
But one who sows righteousness gets a true reward.
One who pursues righteousness and loyalty
Finds life, righteousness, and honor.
To do righteousness and justice
Is preferred by the Lord more than sacrifice.
Every person’s way is right in his own eyes,
But the Lord examines the hearts.
Ill-gotten gains do not benefit,
But righteousness rescues 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.
He made Him who knew no sin to besin in our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all people, instructing us to deny ungodliness and worldly desires and to live sensibly, righteously, and in a godly manner in the present age,
But flee from these things, you man of God, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness.
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a person sows, this he will also reap.
Let’s not become discouraged in doing good, for in due time we will reap, if we do not become weary.
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.
And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. A prayer of a righteous person, when it is brought about, can accomplish much.
Come close to God and He will come close to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
For the Lord loves justice
And does not abandon His godly ones;
They are protected forever,
But the descendants of the wicked will be eliminated.
The eyes of the Lord are toward the righteous,
And His ears are toward their cry for help.
For he will never be shaken;
The righteous will be remembered forever.
The Righteous and the Wicked Contrasted.
Blessed is the person who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked,
Nor stand in the path of sinners,
Nor sit in the seat of scoffers!
With all my heart I have sought You;
Do not let me wander from Your commandments.
Consequências
O Senhor recompensará cada um segundo suas obras. A justiça exalta a nação e traz segurança aos que a praticam.
who will repay each person according to his deeds:
See that no one repays another with evil for evil, but always seek what is good for one another and for all people.
But even if you should suffer for the sake of righteousness, you are blessed. And do not fear theirintimidation, and do not be in dread,
And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.
It is a trap for a person to say carelessly, "It is holy!"
And after the vows to make inquiry.
