Nascer de novo
Nascer de novo é a porta de entrada para a vida em Deus. Jesus ensinou que sem o novo nascimento espiritual, ninguém pode ver nem entrar no Reino de Deus.
A necessidade do novo nascimento
Jesus declarou a Nicodemos: 'Aquele que não nascer de novo não pode ver o Reino de Deus.' O novo nascimento é pelo Espírito.
Jesus answered him, "Truly, truly, I say to yoʋ, unless someone is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."
Jesus answered him, "Truly, truly, I say to yoʋ, unless someone is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." Nicodemus said to him, "How can a person be born when he is old? Can he enter the womb of his mother a second time and be born?" Jesus answered, "Truly, truly, I say to yoʋ, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not be amazed that I said to yoʋ, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows where it wishes. Yoʋ hear the sound of it, but yoʋ do not know where it is coming from or where it is going; so it is with everyone born of the Spirit."
Jesus answered, "Truly, truly, I say to yoʋ, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not be amazed that I said to yoʋ, ‘You must be born again.’
Truly I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will certainly not enter it."
True Greatness
In that hour the disciples came to Jesus and said, "Who is greater in the kingdom of heaven?" So Jesus called over a little child, placed him among them, and said, "Truly I say to you, unless you change and become like little children, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this little child is greater in the kingdom of heaven.
Nova criação em Cristo
Quem está em Cristo é nova criação. Morremos e ressuscitamos com Ele para viver em novidade de vida, livres do velho homem.
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. Old things have passed away; behold, 219 55.3% • 𝔐134 38.8% ¦ new things have come CT 2.5%all things have become new.
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. For we know that our old self has been crucified with him so that the body of sin might be done away with, and we might no longer be enslaved to sin. For he who has died has been set free from sin.
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.
So you also must consider yourselves to be dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. The life that I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself up for me.
to put off your old self, which belongs to your former way of life and is being corrupted by its deceitful desires, to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, created according to the image of God in true righteousness and holiness.
Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old self with its practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge according to the image of its Creator. Here there is no distinction between Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave and free, but Christ is all and in all.
Filhos de Deus
Nascemos de novo pela Palavra viva de Deus. Quem crê em Jesus recebe o direito de se tornar filho de Deus, nascido do Espírito.
But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
A Living Hope
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, reserved in heaven for you,
For you have been born again, not of perishable seed but of imperishable, through the word of God that lives and abides forever.
Like newborn babies, long for pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may 13 ¦ grow into salvation 𝔐6 ANT CT PCKgrow, if indeed you have tasted that 38 ¦ the Lord is good 𝔐15 {Note: The use of the name Christ in place of the word for good is likely a play on words in Greek since χριστος (Christ) and χρηστος (good) are pronounced similarly.}Christ is the Lord.
See what great love the Father has lavished upon us, that we should be called children of God! The reason the world does not know you is that it did not know him. Beloved, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been revealed. But we know that when he appears, we will be like him, because we will see him as he is.
But when the fullness of time came, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons.
Yet God, who is rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, made us alive together with Christ even when we were dead in our trespasses—by grace you have been saved.
