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.
27 »My sheep hear my voice. I know them and they follow me.
45 »It is written in the prophets: Jehovah shall teach them all. Every one who hears the Father and has learned comes to me. (Jeremiah 31:34)
47 »He that is of God hears the words of God. That is why you do not listen. You are not from God!«
24 »Truly, Truly I say to you, he who hears my word, and believes him that sent me, has everlasting life. He will not receive judgment for he has passed out of death into life.25 »Truly I tell you, the hour is coming when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and those who hear listenunderstand will live.
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was like God God-like.
14 The Word Jesus became flesh a human being and lived with us. We saw the glory of the only begotten son from the Father. He was full of loving-kindness 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.
16 God inspired all Scripture! It is profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness. Greek: theopneustos: God-breathed17 Thus the man of God may be completely equipped for every good work.
20 Know this first that no prophecy of scripture is for private interpretation.21 For no prophecy ever came by the will of man! Men spoke from God, being moved by the Holy Spirit.
17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word about Christ.
24 »Everyone who hears my words, and does them is like a wise man that builds his house on a rock.25 »The rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat upon that house; and it did not fall. It was built on a solid rock foundation.
28 He replied: »More blessed are those who hear the word of God and obey it.«
Buscar e ouvir
Deus promete: 'Clama a mim, e te responderei.' Quando buscamos sinceramente sua voz, encontramos direção e revelação.
3 Call to me and I will answer you. I will tell you grand and impressive things, things you do not know.«
21 You will hear a voice behind you say: »This is the way. Walk in it,« whether it turns to the right or to the left.
24 »They said: Today Jehovah our God has shown us how powerful and glorious he is. He spoke to us from the fire. We learned that people could live, even though God speaks to them.
3 The voice of Jehovah is upon the waters. The God of glory thunders, Jehovah is over many waters.4 The voice of Jehovah is powerful. The voice of Jehovah is glorious.5 The voice of Jehovah breaks the cedars. Jehovah splinters the cedars of Lebanon.
4 I call aloud to Jehovah. He answers me from his holy mountain.
