Perdão e misericórdia
O perdão é o coração do evangelho. Deus nos perdoou em Cristo e nos chama a perdoar uns aos outros, assim como fomos perdoados — sem limites e sem condições.
O perdão de Deus
Deus é rico em misericórdia. Ele apaga nossas transgressões e não se lembra mais dos nossos pecados. Quem confessa, alcança perdão.
But if we confess our sins, he is trustworthy and right so that he can forgive us our sins and make us clean from all that is not right in us.

I, yes I am the God who wipes out your sins because of who I am, and who doesn’t remember your sins any more.

As far as the east is from the west is how far the Lord has taken our sins away from us.
For you, Lord, are good; you are forgiving and full of trustworthy love for all who come to you.

I will be merciful when they do wrong, and I will forget about their sins."
Perdoar como fomos perdoados
Jesus ensinou que devemos perdoar setenta vezes sete. Se não perdoarmos aos outros, o Pai celestial também não nos perdoará.
Peter came to Jesus and asked him, "Lord, how many times should I forgive my brother for sinning against me? Seven times?"
"No, not seven times. I would say seventy times seven!" Jesus told him.

This is what my heavenly Father will do to every one of you unless you sincerely forgive your brothers."
For if you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you don’t forgive those who sin against you, then your heavenly Father won’t forgive your sins.
For if you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you don’t forgive those who sin against you, then your heavenly Father won’t forgive your sins.

Forgive our sins, just as we have forgiven those who have sinned against us.
Blessed are those who are merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
A prática do perdão
Perdoar é um ato de obediência e liberdade. A Escritura nos exorta a suportar uns aos outros e perdoar de coração, se alguém tiver algo contra outro.
Be patient with one another, forgive others among you if you have grievances against one another. Just as the Lord forgave you, you should do the same.

He rescued us from the tyranny of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, through whom we have been set free and our sins forgiven.
Misericórdia e graça
Deus é compassivo e tardio em irar-se. A misericórdia triunfa sobre o juízo, e quem se humilha diante de Deus encontra graça abundante.
Repent in your minds, and not by tearing your clothes." Come back to the Lord your God for he is gracious and kind. He is slow to get angry and full of faithful love, and changes his mind about sending punishment.
Who is a God like you who forgives sin and passes over the rebellion of those who are left of his special people? You do not remain angry forever because you delight in showing faithful love.
But because of your wonderful mercy you did not finish with them, and you did not abandon them, for you are a gracious and merciful God.
You show trust to those who trust; you show integrity to those with integrity,
and if my people who are called by my name humble themselves and pray and return to me, and turn away from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, forgive their sins, and heal their land.
Then Hezekiah sent an announcement to everyone in Israel and Judah, and also sent letters to Ephraim and Manasseh, inviting them to come to the Lord’s Temple in Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover of the Lord, the God of Israel. The king and his officials and the whole assembly in Jerusalem had decided to observe the Passover in the second month, because they hadn’t been able to observe it at the usual time since not enough priests had purified themselves and the people hadn’t had time to get to Jerusalem.
The plan seemed right to both the king and the whole assembly. So they decided to send an announcement to everyone in Israel, from Beersheba to Dan, inviting people to come and keep the Passover to the Lord, the God of Israel, in Jerusalem, for many had not done as the Law required.
So messengers went to all of Israel and Judah carrying letters from the king and his officials and with the king’s authorization. They said, "Children of Israel, return to the Lord, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, so that he may return to you who are left, who have escaped the oppression of the kings of Assyria. Don’t be like your fathers and those of you who sinned against the Lord, the God of your forefathers He made them into something horrifying, as you can see. So don’t be proud and obstinate like your fathers, but give yourselves to the Lord and come to his sanctuary, which he has made holy forever, and serve the Lord your God, that his fierce anger may no longer fall on you.
If you come back to the Lord, your relatives and children will receive mercy from their captors and will return to this land. For the Lord your God is gracious and merciful. He will not reject you if you come back to him."
The messengers went from town to town all over the land of Ephraim and Manasseh as far as Zebulun; but the people laughed at them and mocked them. Only some men from Asher, Manasseh, and Zebulun weren’t too proud to go to Jerusalem.
At this time the power of God was helping the people in Judah to all have the same desire to follow the orders of the king and his officials, as indicated by the word of the Lord.
Many people gathered in Jerusalem to celebrate the Feast of Unleavened Bread in the second month—a really large crowd. They went and removed the pagan altars in Jerusalem as well as the incense altars and threw them into the Kidron Valley. On the fourteenth day of the second month they killed the Passover lamb. The priests and Levites were ashamed, and they purified themselves and brought burnt offerings to the Lord’s Temple. They stood at their assigned positions, according to the law of Moses, the man of God. The priests sprinkled the blood of the sacrifices, which the Levites gave to them.
Since many people in the assembly had not purified themselves, the Levites had to kill the Passover lambs on behalf of every unclean person to dedicate the lambs to the Lord. Most of the people, many of those from Ephraim, Manasseh, Issachar, and Zebulun, had not purified themselves. Yet they ate the Passover meal even though this was not what the Law required, for Hezekiah had prayed for them, saying, "May the good Lord forgive everyone who sincerely wants to follow the Lord God, the God of their forefathers, even though they’re not clean according to the sanctuary requirements." The Lord accepted Hezekiah’s prayer and permitted them this violation.
The people of Israel who were there in Jerusalem celebrated the Feast of Unleavened Bread for seven days with great enthusiasm, and every day the Levites and priests praised the Lord, accompanied by loud instruments. Hezekiah spoke positively to all the Levites who showed a good understanding of the Lord. For seven days they ate the food that was assigned to them, presented friendship offerings, and gave thanks to the Lord, the God of their forefathers. Everyone then agreed to continue to celebrate the festival for seven more days. So for another seven days they celebrated, full of joy.
Hezekiah, king of Judah, gave a thousand bulls and seven thousand sheep as offerings on behalf of the assembly. The officials in turn gave a thousand bulls and ten thousand sheep as offerings on behalf of the assembly. A large number of priests purified themselves.
The whole assembly of Judah celebrated, together with the priests and Levites, and also with the whole assembly that had come from Israel, including the foreigners from Israel and those living in Judah. There was such tremendous happiness in Jerusalem, for since the time of Solomon, son of David, king of Israel, nothing like this had happened in the city. The priests and the Levites stood up to bless the people, and God heard them—their prayer ascended to where he lived in heaven.
Arrependimento e perdão
O arrependimento genuíno abre as portas do perdão. Deus convida todos ao arrependimento e promete perdoar completamente quem volta a Ele.
"Repent!" Peter told them. "All of you must be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Now repent, and change your ways, that your sins can be wiped away, so the Lord can send opportunities for you to heal and recover,
My brothers, I want you to understand that we’re telling you that through this man sins are forgiven. Through him everyone who trusts in him is made morally right from all that is wrong—in a way that you could never be set right by the law of Moses.
God disregarded people’s ignorance in the past, but now he commands everyone everywhere to repent.
Then I confessed my sins to you. I did not hide the wrongs I had done. I said to myself, "I will confess my disobedience to the Lord," and you forgave the guilt of my sins. Selah.
People who hide their sins won’t succeed, but those who confess and renounce their sins will be shown kindness.
Wicked people should change their ways and get rid of even the thought of doing something wrong. They should turn to the Lord so he can be merciful to them. Come back to our God, because he’s generous with his forgiveness.

So take care what you do. If your brother sins, warn him; and if he repents, forgive him. Even if he sins against you seven times a day, and seven times comes back and tells you, ‘I’m really sorry,’ forgive him."

Jesus said, "Father, please forgive them, for they don’t know what they’re doing." They divided up his clothes by throwing dice for them.
But when you’re praying, if you have something against someone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your sins."

Don’t look for revenge or hold a grudge against anybody, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the Lord.
Hold on to kindness and truth. Tie them around your neck; write them in your mind. That way you’ll gain a good reputation and be appreciated by both God and people.
If you forgive a wrong you encourage friendship, but if you keep talking about it you’ll lose your friend.
Make sure that none of you lack God’s grace, in case some cause of bitterness arises to give trouble and end up corrupting many of you.
Not to put it too strongly, but the person caused more pain to all of you than to me. This person suffered enough punishment from the majority of you, so now you should forgive him and be kind to him. Otherwise he may sink into despair. So I urge you to publicly affirm your love towards him.
Through him our sins are forgiven—and not only our sins, but those of the whole world.
"No one did, sir," she replied.
"I don’t condemn you either," Jesus told her. "Go, and don’t sin anymore."
Are any of you sick? You should call for the church elders and have them pray over you, and anoint you with oil in the Lord’s name. Such a prayer, trusting in God, will heal those who are sick, and the Lord will make them well. If they’ve committed sins, they will be forgiven.
If a man divorces his wife and she goes and marries someone else, could he ever go back to her? Wouldn’t the country be made totally unclean by this? But you have done worse by prostituting yourselves with many lovers, and now you want to come back to me? declares the Lord.
Look up at the bare hilltops. Is there anywhere that you haven’t had sex? You sat at the roadside like someone from the desert waiting for your lovers to pass by. You have made the land unclean with your prostitution and evil. That’s why no showers have been sent, and no spring rains have fallen. But you just stare back shamelessly like a prostitute; you refuse to accept you’ve done anything wrong.
Didn’t you just tell me, "My father, you’ve been such a close friend to me since I was little. You won’t be angry with me for a long time, will you? You won’t go on being like that forever?" This is what you’ve said, but you keep on sinning as much as you can.
During the reign of King Josiah, the Lord told me, Have you seen what unfaithful Israel has done? She has prostituted herself on every high hill and under every green tree. I hoped that after she’d done all this she’d come back to me. But she didn’t come back, and her unfaithful sister Judah saw what happened. She saw that because of everything unfaithful Israel had done on committing adultery, I sent her away, giving her a certificate of divorce. But her unfaithful sister Judah wasn’t afraid and prostituted herself too. Israel didn’t care about the immorality, as she made herself and the land unclean, committing adultery by worshiping stones and trees. Despite all this, her unfaithful sister Judah didn’t come back to me in sincerity. She only pretended to do so, declares the Lord.
The Lord told me, Unfaithful Israel showed that she wasn’t as guilty as unfaithful Judah. Now go and announce this message to the north: Come back, unfaithful Israel, declares the Lord. I won’t be angry with you anymore, because I am merciful, declares the Lord. I won’t be angry forever. Just admit you did wrong, that you rebelled against the Lord your God. You spread yourself around, committing adultery by worshiping foreign gods under every green tree, refusing to do what I told you, declares the Lord.
Come back, unfaithful children, declares the Lord, because I am married to you. I will take you, one from a town and two from a family, and bring you to Zion. I will give you shepherds who are like me who will feed you wisely and with understanding.
At that time as you increase in number in the country, declares the Lord, no one will be talking about the Ark of the Lord’s Agreement anymore. People won’t need to think about it or remember it or wonder what happened to it; and certainly won’t need to make a new one.
When that time comes Jerusalem will be called the Throne of the Lord, and all the nations will come together in Jerusalem to honor the Lord. They won’t be stubborn or wicked anymore.
At that time the people of Judah will join with the people of Israel, and they will return from the land of the north to the country I gave to your forefathers to own. I said to myself, I really want you to be my children, and to give you the best country, the most beautiful place of any nation. I hoped you would call me "Father," and never give up following me. But just like a wife might betray her husband, you have betrayed me, people of Israel, declares the Lord.
Voices are crying on bare hilltops—the Israelites weeping and pleading for mercy, because they have gone astray and forgotten the Lord their God.
Come back, unfaithful children, and I will heal your unfaithfulness.
"We’re here! Yes, we’re coming back to you, because you are the Lord our God."
There’s no doubt that pagan worship from the hills is pure lies; the idolatry that comes from the mountains is just noise. Israel’s salvation is in the Lord our God alone.
All our lives pagan idolatry has destroyed what our fathers worked so hard for: their flocks and herds, their sons and daughters.
We should lie down in shame, and have our disgrace bury us. We have sinned against the Lord our God, us and our fathers. From when we were young right up to now we have not obeyed what the Lord our God told us to do.
Most of all, you should love one another very deeply, for love covers many of the wrong things people do.
