Ouvir a voz de Deus
Ouvir a voz de Deus é o privilégio supremo do cristão. Ele fala por sua Palavra, pelo Espírito e em circunstâncias — e as ovelhas reconhecem a voz do bom Pastor.
As ovelhas ouvem a voz do Pastor
Jesus disse: minhas ovelhas ouvem minha voz, eu as conheço e elas me seguem. A relação com Deus é íntima e pessoal.
My sheep hear my voice, I know them, and they follow me.
It is written in the Prophets:And they will all be taught by God.,Everyone who has listened to and learned from the Fathercomes to me —
The one who is from God listens to God’s words. This is why you don’t listen, because you are not from God."
Life and Judgment
"Truly I tell you, anyone who hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal lifeand will not come under judgment but has passed from death to life.
"Truly I tell you, an hour is coming, and is now here,when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.
Prologue
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
The Word became flesh and dwelt among us. We observed his glory, the glory as the one and only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.
Deus fala pela Palavra
Toda Escritura é inspirada por Deus. A Bíblia é a voz confiável de Deus registrada para nos guiar em toda verdade.
All Scripture is inspired by God , and is profitable for teaching, for rebuking, for correcting, for training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.
Above all, you know this: No prophecy of Scripture comes from the prophet’s own interpretation, because no prophecy ever came by the will of man; instead, men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
So faith comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes through the message about Christ. ,
The Two Foundations
"Therefore,everyone who hears these wordsof mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.The rain fell, the rivers rose, and the winds blew and pounded that house. Yet it didn’t collapse, because its foundation was on the rock.
He said, "Rather, blessed are those who hear the word of Godand keep it."
Buscar e ouvir
Deus promete: 'Clama a mim, e te responderei.' Quando buscamos sinceramente sua voz, encontramos direção e revelação.
Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and incomprehensible things you do not know.
and whenever you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear this command behind you: "This is the way. Walk in it."
You said, ‘Look, the Lord our God has shown us his glory and greatness, and we have heard his voice from the fire. Today we have seen that God speaks with a person, yet he still lives.
The voice of the Lord is above the waters.
The God of glory thunders —
the Lord, above the vast water,
the voice of the Lord in power,
the voice of the Lord in splendor.
The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars;
the Lord shatters the cedars of Lebanon.
I cry aloud to the Lord,
and he answers me from his holy mountain. Selah
