Lei
A lei de Deus é expressão do seu caráter e amor. Do Sinai ao Sermão do Monte, a lei orienta, protege e revela o padrão santo de Deus para a vida humana.
O propósito da lei
A lei de Deus revela o pecado e nos conduz a Cristo. Pela lei é que temos consciência do que é justo e do que é errado.
For by the works of the law no person will be declared righteous before him, for through the law comes knowledge of sin.
Set Free from Sin
What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? May it never be!
Freedom in Christ
All things are permitted, but not all things are profitable. All things are permitted, but not all things build up.
For the whole law is fulfilled in one statement, namely, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self control. Against such things there is no law.
Carry the burdens of one another, and so fulfill the law of Christ.
Amar e obedecer
O maior mandamento é amar a Deus e ao próximo. Toda a lei se resume nestes dois mandamentos, que são o fundamento de tudo.
The second is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these."
This is my commandment: that you love one another just as I have loved you.
Therefore in all things, whatever you want that people should do to you, thus also you do to them. For this is the law and the prophets.
Love Fulfills the Law
Owe nothing to anyone, except to love one another, for the one who loves someone else has fulfilled the law.
And this is the commandment we have from him: that the one who loves God should love his brother also.
Dear friends, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence before God, and whatever we ask we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do what is pleasing in his sight.
Bênçãos da obediência à lei
Se andardes nos meus mandamentos, vivereis. A obediência à lei de Deus traz vida, paz e prosperidade espiritual.
"And it will happen that if you indeed listen to the voice of Yahweh your God, to diligently observe all his commandments that I am commanding you today, then Yahweh your God will set you above all the nations of the earth.
what I am commanding you today is to love Yahweh your God by going in his ways and by keeping his commandments and his statutes and his regulations, and then you will live, and you will become numerous, and Yahweh your God will bless you in the land where you are going.
And now, Israel, what is Yahweh your God asking from you, except to revere Yahweh your God, to go in all his ways and to love him and to serve Yahweh your God with all your heart and with all your soul,to keep the commandments of Yahweh and his statutes that I am commanding you today for your own good.
And these words that I am commanding you today shall be on your heart.And you shall recite them to your children, and you shall talk about them at the time of your living in your house and at the time of your going on the road and at the time of your lying down and at the time of your rising up.
The scroll of this law will not depart from your mouth; you will meditate on it day and night so that you may observe diligently all that is written in it. For then you will succeed in your ways and prosper.
Only be very careful to observe the commandment and law that Moses Yahweh’s servant commanded you, to love Yahweh your God, to walk in all his ways, to keep his commandments, to hold fast to him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul."
With my whole heart I have sought you;
do not let me stray from your commands.
I have chosen the faithful way;
I have set your ordinances before me.
But the loyal love of Yahweh
is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear him,
and his righteousness to their children’s children,
to those who keep his covenant
and remember to do his precepts.
Lei e graça
A lei veio para nos guiar; a graça veio para nos salvar. Em Cristo, cumprimos a lei pelo amor — o fruto do Espírito não tem lei contra si.
And fathers, do not make your children angry, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
He has told you, O mortal, what is good,
and what does Yahweh ask from you
but to do justice, and to love kindness,
and to walk humbly with your God?
But let justice roll on like the water, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.
Do Not Become Unevenly Yoked with Unbelievers
Do not become unevenly yoked with unbelievers, for what participation is there between righteousness and lawlessness? Or what fellowship does light have with darkness?
