O que a Bíblia ensina sobre perdão e misericórdia

Misericórdia é Deus reter o castigo que merecemos; perdão é o cancelamento completo dessa culpa por meio de Cristo. Na Bíblia, os dois conceitos andam juntos: quem experimenta a compaixão do Pai recebe a liberdade da condenação e assume a responsabilidade de tratar o próximo com essa mesma graça.

In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our wrongdoings, according to the riches of His grace(Ephesians 1:7)

As far as the east is from the west,

So far has He removed our wrongdoings from us.(Psalm 103:12)

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous, so that He will forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.(1 John 1:9)

For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.(Colossians 1:13,14)

O caráter perdoador de Deus

A misericórdia não é uma reação passageira de Deus, mas parte inseparável de quem Ele é. As Escrituras mostram que o Senhor não sente prazer em punir, mas se alegra em acolher quem reconhece os próprios limites e falhas.

Who is a God like You, who pardons wrongdoing

And passes over a rebellious act of the remnant of His possession?

He does not retain His anger forever,

Because He delights in mercy.(Micah 7:18)

For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive,

And abundant in mercy to all who call upon You.(Psalm 86:5)

And tear your heart and not merely your garments."

Now return to the Lord your God,

For He is gracious and compassionate,

Slow to anger, abounding in mercy

And relenting of catastrophe.(Joel 2:13)

"Nevertheless, in Your great compassion You did not make an end of them or abandon them,

For You are a gracious and compassionate God.(Nehemiah 9:31)

"I, I alone, am the one who wipes out your wrongdoings for My own sake,

And I will not remember your sins.(Isaiah 43:25)

"For I will be merciful toward their wrongdoings,

And their sins I will no longer remember."(Hebrews 8:12)

O caminho do arrependimento

O perdão divino é gratuito, mas exige uma mudança de postura: o arrependimento sincero. Arrepender-se não significa tentar compensar erros com boas ações, mas confessar as faltas diante de Deus e abandonar a prática que fere a comunhão com Ele.

One who conceals his wrongdoings will not prosper,

But one who confesses and abandons them will find compassion.(Proverbs 28:13)

I acknowledged my sin to You,

And I did not hide my guilt;

I said, "I will confess my wrongdoings to the Lord";

And You forgave the guilt of my sin. Selah(Psalm 32:5)

Let the wicked abandon his way,

And the unrighteous person his thoughts;

And let him return to the Lord,

And He will have compassion on him,

And to our God,

For He will abundantly pardon.(Isaiah 55:7)

Therefore repent and return, so that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord;(Acts 3:19)

Peter said to them, "Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.(Acts 2:38)

Therefore let it be known to you, brothers, that through Him forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you, and through Him everyone who believes is freed from all things, from which you could not be freed through the Law of Moses.(Acts 13:38,39)

So having overlooked the times of ignorance, God is now proclaiming to mankind that all people everywhere are to repent,(Acts 17:30)

and My people who are called by My name humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.(2 Chronicles 7:14)

Por que perdoar quem nos ofendeu

Jesus estabelece que o perdão humano não se baseia no merecimento de quem ofendeu, mas na consciência de quanto nós mesmos já fomos perdoados por Deus. Reter o perdão alimenta a amargura e trava a nossa própria comunhão com o Pai.

Then Peter came up and said to Him, "Lord, how many times shall my brother sin against me and I still forgive him? Up to seven times?" Jesus *said to him, "I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy-seven times.(Matthew 18:21,22)

My heavenly Father will also do the same to you, if each of you does not forgive his brother from your heart."(Matthew 18:35)

For if you forgive other people for their offenses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.But if you do not forgive other people, then your Father will not forgive your offenses.(Matthew 6:14,15)

‘And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.(Matthew 6:12)

"Blessed are the merciful, for they will receive mercy.(Matthew 5:7)

bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against anyone; just as the Lord forgave you, so must you do also.(Colossians 3:13)

Be kind to one another, compassionate, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you.(Ephesians 4:32)

Como praticar o perdão nos relacionamentos

Perdoar no cotidiano é uma decisão prática de abrir mão da vingança e do ressentimento. O perdão não ignora o erro nem exige convivência imediata sem arrependimento, mas impede que a ofensa continue gerando veneno e destruição na convivência.

Be on your guard! If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.And if he sins against you seven times a day, and returns to you seven times, saying, ‘I repent,’ you shall forgive him."(Luke 17:3,4)

"Do not judge, and you will not be judged; and do not condemn, and you will not be condemned; pardon, and you will be pardoned.(Luke 6:37)

[But Jesus was saying, "Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing."] And they cast lots, dividing His garments among themselves.(Luke 23:34)

And whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone, so that your Father who is in heaven will also forgive you for your offenses.(Mark 11:25)

You shall not take vengeance, nor hold any grudge against the sons of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself; I am the Lord.(Leviticus 19:18)

One who conceals an offense seeks love,

But one who repeats a matter separates close friends.(Proverbs 17:9)

See to it that no one comes short of the grace of God; that no root of bitterness springing up causes trouble, and by it many become defiled;(Hebrews 12:15)

But if anyone has caused sorrow, he has caused sorrow not for me, but in some degree—not to say too much—for all of you. Sufficient for such a person is this punishment which was imposed by the majority, so that on the other hand, you should rather forgive and comfort him, otherwise such a person might be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow. Therefore I urge you to reaffirm your love for him.(2 Corinthians 2:5-8)

Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins.(1 Peter 4:8)

She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said, "I do not condemn you, either. Go. From now on do not sin any longer."]](John 8:11)

Is anyone among you sick? Then he must call for the elders of the church and they are to pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord; and the prayer of faith will restore the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up, and if he has committed sins, they will be forgiven him.(James 5:14,15)

and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.(1 John 2:2)
