Medo da morte
O medo da morte é universal, mas Cristo o venceu. A Bíblia ensina que para quem crê, a morte perdeu o aguilhão — não é mais motivo de terror, mas porta para a eternidade com Deus.
Cristo venceu a morte
Jesus assumiu carne e sangue para, pela morte, destruir o que tinha o poder da morte e libertar os que viviam em escravidão pelo medo dela.
Therefore, since the children all have flesh and blood, Jesus himself took on flesh and blood as well, so that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil, and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by the fear of death.
Now when this perishable body has put on imperishability, and this mortal body has put on immortality, then this saying that is written will be fulfilled:
"Death has been swallowed up in victory."
"O Death, where is yoʋr sting?
O Hades, where is yoʋr victory?"
Now the sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who gives us victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Therefore we were buried with him through baptism into death, so that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life.
For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will certainly also be united with him in the likeness of his resurrection.
A promessa da vida eterna
Quem ouve a Palavra e crê já passou da morte para a vida. O amor perfeito lança fora o medo, até o medo da morte.
Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.
Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me, though he may die, yet shall he live.
Truly, truly, I say to you, if anyone keeps my word, he will certainly never see death."
"For God loved the world in this way: He gave his one and only Son, so that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. Whoever fears has not been perfected in love.
Não temas
Jesus disse: não temais os que matam o corpo. No vale da sombra da morte, o Senhor está conosco como pastor e protetor.
Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul, but rather fear him who can destroy both the soul and the body in hell.
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more, and there will no longer be mourning, crying, or A(21),C,K 71.1% • 𝔐A(11) 6% ¦ pain; 𝔐A(13) ECM SBL TH WH 14.9%pain, for the former things have passed away."
Do not be afraid of what yoʋ are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison so that you may be A,C,K [88.1%] ¦ tested and WH [5.5%] • MSS [6.4%]tested, and you will have tribulation for ten days. Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give yoʋ the crown of life.
For "everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved."
As it is written,
"For yoʋr sake we face death all day long;
we are regarded as sheep for slaughter."
Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
