Reconhecer
Reconhecer a Jesus como Senhor é o fundamento da fé cristã. A confissão de fé é o ato de declarar publicamente quem Jesus é e a quem pertencemos.
Confissão e salvação
Se confessarmos com a boca que Jesus é Senhor e crermos no coração que Deus o ressuscitou, seremos salvos.
9 If you say with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and if you believe in your heart that God has raised Christ from death, you will be saved.
10 A person believes with his heart, and he is made right with God. He speaks with his mouth and so is saved from his wrong ways.
11 The holy writings say, The Lord says, "As sure as I live, every knee will bow to me. Every tongue will praise God."
11 Everyone will admit that Jesus Christ is Lord. They will praise God the Father for this.
Reconhecer a fé
Reconhecer a Jesus é um ato de coragem e compromisso. Quem o confessar diante dos homens, Ele confessará diante do Pai.
15 If anyone says, Jesus is the Son of God, God is in him and he is in God.
5 He who wins will wear white clothes. I will not take his name out of the book of life. I will tell his name to my Father and to his angels."
12 Work hard at believing in God more and more. Make sure that you get everlasting life; God called you to have it. You stood before many people and said that you believed in Christ. That was the right thing to say.
23 We must hold on to Gods promise that we have said we believed. And we must never let go. He has promised and he will do it.
Reconhecer o pecado e a bondade de Deus
Reconhecer nossos pecados é o caminho para o perdão. E reconhecer que o Senhor é nossa porção nos dá esperança inabalável.
