Preservação das escrituras

A Palavra de Deus permanece para sempre. As Escrituras foram preservadas por Deus ao longo dos milênios para instrução, consolação e guia de todas as gerações.

A Palavra eterna

Céus e terra passarão, mas as palavras de Deus jamais passarão. Sua Palavra é eterna, infalível e imutável — a verdade que sustenta tudo.

35 Izulu lomhlaba kuzedlula, kodwa amazwi ami kawayikwedlula lanini."

Mateus 24:35

18 Ngilitshela iqiniso ukuthi kuze kunyamalale izulu lomhlaba kakuyikususwa lutho eMthethweni, loba libadlana kumbe lichatshana elilotshiweyo, kuze kupheleliswe konke.

Mateus 5:18

8 Utshani buyabuna, amaluba ayakhithika,

kodwa ilizwi likaNkulunkulu limi kuze kube nininini."

Isaías 40:8

24 Ngoba,

"Abantu bonke banjengotshani,

bonke ubukhosi babo bunjengamaluba eganga;

utshani buyabuna njalo amaluba ayakhithika,

25 kodwa ilizwi leNkosi limi kuze kube nini lanini."

Njalo leli yilo ilizwi elatshunyayelwa kini.

1 Pedro 1:24,25

23 Ngoba selizelwe kutsha, kungasikho ngenhlanyelo ebolayo, kodwa ngengaboliyo, ngelizwi eliphilayo eliqinileyo likaNkulunkulu. 24 Ngoba,

"Abantu bonke banjengotshani,

bonke ubukhosi babo bunjengamaluba eganga;

utshani buyabuna njalo amaluba ayakhithika,

25 kodwa ilizwi leNkosi limi kuze kube nini lanini."

Njalo leli yilo ilizwi elatshunyayelwa kini.

1 Pedro 1:23-25

A inspiração divina

Toda Escritura é inspirada por Deus. Homens santos falaram da parte do Senhor, e a Palavra escrita é a expressão fiel da vontade divina.

20 Phezu kwakho konke, kumele liqedisise ukuthi akukho siphrofethi soMbhalo esavela ngokuchasisa okungokomphrofethi. 21 Ngoba isiphrofethi kasizange sivele entandweni yomuntu, kodwa abantu bakhuluma kuvela kuNkulunkulu beholwa nguMoya oNgcwele.

2 Pedro 1:20,21

ILizwi Lika Nkulunkulu Lokucina: INdodana Yakhe

1 Kudala uNkulunkulu wakhuluma kubokhokho kanenginengi ngabaphrofethi langezindlela ezehlukeneyo 2 kodwa ngalezizinsuku zokucina ukhulume kithi ngeNdodana yakhe, ayibeka ukuba yindlalifa yezinto zonke, yona adala ngayo izulu lomhlaba. 3 INdodana iyikubenyezela kwenkazimulo kaNkulunkulu kanye lomfanekiso wokuba nguye kwakhe uqobo, iqinisa izinto zonke ngelizwi layo elilamandla. Emva kokuba isikufezile ukuhlanjululwa kwezono, yahlala phansi esandleni sokunene sobukhosi ezulwini.

Hebreus 1:1-3

14 ULizwi waba yinyama, wahlala phakathi kwethu. Siyibonile inkazimulo yakhe; inkazimulo yeNdodana eyiyo yodwa, eyavela kuYise, igcwele umusa leqiniso.

João 1:14

14 Ngiyazi yonke into eyenziwa nguNkulunkulu izakuba khona kokuphela; akulalutho olungengezwa kukho loba kususwe kukho. UNkulunkulu uyenza lokho ukuze abantu bamkhonze.

Eclesiastes 3:14

A Palavra como guia e tesouro

A Palavra de Deus é lâmpada para os pés, espada do Espírito e tesouro para o coração. Guardá-la e meditá-la nos protege do pecado.

11 Ilizwi lakho ngilifihlile enhliziyweni yami

ukuze ngingenzi isono kuwe.

Salmos 119:11

1 Amazulu afakaza inkazimulo kaNkulunkulu;

lomkhathi utshumayela umsebenzi wezandla zakhe.

2 Usuku ngosuku lezizinto ziyakhuluma;

ubusuku lobusuku zibonisa ulwazi.

3 Akula nkulumo, akula mazwi

ilizwi lazo alizwakali.

4 Kodwa Ilizwi lazo lizwakala emhlabeni wonke,

amazwi azo afika emikhawulweni yomhlaba.

Emazulwini uNkulunkulu uselakhele ithente ilanga.

5 Lona linjengomyeni ephuma exhibeni lakhe,

njengentshantshu ethakazelela ukugijima ibanga layo.

6 Liphuma emkhawulweni wamazulu

lihambe indlela yalo liyotshona ngakuloyana;

kakukho okusithekileyo ekutshiseni kwalo.

7 Umthetho kaThixo uphelele

uvuselela umphefumulo.

Izimiso zikaThixo zithembekile,

zihlakaniphisa izithutha.

8 Iziqondiso zikaThixo zilungile,

ziletha ukuthokoza enhliziyweni.

Imilayo kaThixo isobala,

iletha ukukhanya emehlweni.

Salmos 19:1-8

6 Njalo amazwi kaThixo amsulwa,

njengesiliva esicengwe esithandweni somlilo esebumba,

njengegolide elihlanjululwe kasikhombisa.

7 Oh Thixo, uzahlala usiphephisile

njalo usivikele ebantwini ababi nini lanini.

Salmos 12:6,7

8 Kodwa kuthini na? "Ilizwi liseduze lawe, lisemlonyeni wakho lasenhliziyweni yakho," lokho yikuthi, ilizwi lokukholwa esilitshumayelayo:

Romanos 10:8

17 Ngakho-ke, ukukholwa kuvela ekuzweni ilizwi, lelizwi lizwakala ngelizwi likaKhristu. 18 Kodwa ngiyabuza ngithi: Kabezwanga na? Impela bezwa ukuthi:

"Ilizwi labo liphumile laya kuwo wonke umhlaba,

amazwi abo emikhawulweni yomhlaba."

Romanos 10:17,18

4 Ngoba konke okwalotshwa kudala kwalotshelwa ukusifundisa, ukuze kuthi ngokubekezela langokukhuthazwa yimibhalo sibe lethemba.

Romanos 15:4

6 Imilayo le engikupha yona lamuhla kumele ibe sezinhliziyweni zenu. 7 Igcizeleleni ebantwaneni benu. Likhulume ngayo nxa lihlezi emakhaya enu lalapho lihamba endleleni, lapho lilala lanxa livuka. 8 Ibopheleni ezandleni zenu ibe luphawu, liyibophele lasemabunzini enu. 9 Ibhaleni emigubazini yezindlu zenu kanye lasemasangweni enu.
