Namoro
O namoro cristão deve ser vivido com sabedoria, pureza e propósito. A Bíblia orienta sobre escolher um cônjuge, guardar o coração e honrar a Deus em todo relacionamento.
Guardar o coração
Sobre tudo o que se deve guardar, guarda o teu coração, porque dele procedem as fontes da vida. O namoro exige vigilância e sabedoria.
Keep your heart with all vigilance,
for from it flow the springs of life.
The Temple of the Living God
Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness? What accord has Christ with Belial? Or what portion does a believer share with an unbeliever?
"Do two walk together,
unless they have agreed to meet?
Do not be deceived: "Bad company ruins good morals."
Pureza e santidade
O corpo é templo do Espírito Santo. A Bíblia nos chama a fugir da imoralidade e esperar no amor com paciência e respeito mútuo.
Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body. Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.
"Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for food"—and God will destroy both one and the other. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.
But if they cannot exercise self-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem,
that you not stir up or awaken love
until it pleases.
Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous.
A esposa prudente vem do Senhor
Deus criou o homem e a mulher para completarem-se. A casa e os bens são herança dos pais, mas a esposa prudente vem do Senhor.
Then the Lord God said, "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him."
House and wealth are inherited from fathers,
but a prudent wife is from the Lord.
And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.
