Purificação
A purificação é um tema central na Bíblia. Deus nos chama a sermos limpos — não apenas externamente, mas no coração, na mente e em toda a conduta de vida.
Purificados pelo sangue de Cristo
O sangue de Jesus nos purifica de todo pecado. Sua morte na cruz é o sacrifício perfeito que nos torna limpos diante de Deus.
But if we walk in the light as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just, so that he will forgive us our sins and will cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse our consciences from dead works to serve the living God?
who is the radiance of his glory and the representation of his essence, sustaining all things by the word of power. When he had made purification for sins through him, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,
who gave himself for us, in order that he might redeem us from all lawlessness and purify for himself a people for his own possession, zealous for good deeds.
Purificação interior
Deus cria em nós um coração puro. A purificação começa no interior — nos pensamentos, intenções e motivações do coração.
Create a clean heart for me, O God,
and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
A Prayer of Repentance and Plea for Mercy
Be gracious to me, O God, according to your loyal love.
According to your abundant mercies,
blot out my transgressions.
Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity,
and from my sin cleanse me.
Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded!
Paul’s Joy at the Corinthians’ Repentance
Therefore since we have these promises, dear friends, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement of body and spirit, accomplishing holiness in the fear of God.
Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been revealed. We know that whenever he is revealed we will be like him, because we will see him just as he is. And everyone who has this hope in him purifies himself, just as that one is pure.
Lavados pela Palavra
A Palavra de Deus e o batismo nos purificam. Jesus disse: 'Vós já estais limpos pela palavra que vos tenho falado.'
You are already clean because of the word that I have spoken to you.
Husbands and Wives
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for her; in order that he might sanctify her by cleansing her with the washing of water by the word;
And now why are you delaying? Get up, be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on his name!’
And also, corresponding to this, baptism now saves you, not the removal of dirt from the flesh, but an appeal to God for a good conscience through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
Wash! Make yourselves clean!
Remove the evil of your doings from before my eyes!
Cease to do evil!
And he said, "What comes out of a person, that defiles a person. For from within, from the heart of people, come evil plans, sexual immoralities, thefts, murders, adulteries, acts of greed, malicious deeds, deceit, licentiousness, envy, abusive speech, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within and defile a person."
