Legalidades

Por Bíblia Online

A Bíblia reconhece a necessidade de leis e governo civil. Os cristãos são chamados a obedecer às autoridades estabelecidas por Deus, enquanto mantêm a lealdade suprema a Cristo.

Submissão às autoridades

Toda autoridade é instituída por Deus. O cristão é chamado a respeitar as leis, pagar tributos e honrar quem governa.

Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not? But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why make ye trial of me, ye hypocrites? Show me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a denarius. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? They say unto him, Caesar’s. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things that are Caesar’s; and unto God the things that are God’s.

Obrigações legais

Jesus cumpriu obrigações legais, pagou impostos e orientou seus seguidores a obedecer à lei sem comprometer a fé.

And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received the half-shekel came to Peter, and said, Doth not your teacher pay the half-shekel? He saith, Yea. And when he came into the house, Jesus spake first to him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? the kings of the earth, from whom do they receive toll or tribute? from their sons, or from strangers? Peter saith unto him, From strangers. Jesus said unto him, Therefore the sons are free. But, lest we cause them to stumble, go thou to the sea, and cast a hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a shekel: that take, and give unto them for me and thee.

Agree with thine adversary quickly, while thou art in the way with him; lest haply the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison. Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou have paid the last penny.

yea and before governors and kings shall ye be brought for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the Gentiles. But when they deliver you up, be not anxious how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that hour what ye shall speak.

Perspectiva divina

As nações são como uma gota no balde diante de Deus. Ele abre portas que nenhuma lei pode fechar.
