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 that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth Jesus as Lord, and shalt believe in thine heart that God has raised him from among {the} dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with {the} heart is believed to righteousness; and with {the} mouth confession made to salvation.
11 For it is written, *I* live, saith {the} Lord, that to me shall bow every knee, and every tongue shall confess to God.
11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ {is} Lord to God {the} Father's glory.
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 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.
5 He that overcomes, *he* shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot his name out of the book of life, and will confess his name before my Father and before his angels.
12 Strive earnestly {in} the good conflict of faith. Lay hold of eternal life, to which thou hast been called, and hast confessed the good confession before many witnesses.
23 Let us hold fast the confession of the hope unwavering, (for he {is} faithful who has promised;)
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.
5 I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity I covered not; I said, I will confess my transgressions unto Jehovah, and *thou* forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah.
24 Jehovah is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
10 Who is he, this King of glory? Jehovah of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah.
