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 listen to my voice and I know them and they follow me,
45 It is written in the prophets, 'They will all be taught by God.' Every one who has heard from the Father and has learned comes to me.
47 He who is of God listens to God's words. For this reason you do not listen \'97 because you are not of God."
24 Truly, truly, I tell you, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me has life eternal and does not come into condemnation, but has passed over from death into life.25 Truly, truly, I tell you that the 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.
1 IN the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
14 The Word became flesh and tented among us, and we looked upon his glory, glory as of an only son from a 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.
16 All Scripture is divinely inspired and is useful for teaching, for proof, for correction of error, for education in righteousness,17 that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.
20 since you know this first, that no prophecy of Scripture comes from any one's private interpretation,21 for prophecy never came by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.
17 So then faith comes from the report and report comes through the word of Christ.
24 "Every one, therefore, who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house upon the rock;25 and the rain descended and the rivers rose and the winds blew, and they beat upon that house; but it fell not, for it had been founded on the rock.
28 He said, "Blessed are they who hear the word of God and keep it!"
