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 you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and will believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
10 For with the heart man believes to righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made to salvation.
11 For it is written, As I live, says the Lord, to me every knee will bow, And every tongue will confess to God.
11 and that every tongue should confess, The Lord Jesus Christ, to the glory of God the Father.
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 Whoever will confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God stays in him, and he in God.
5 He who overcomes will thus be arrayed in white garments; and I will in no way blot his name out of the Book of Life, and I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.
12 Fight the good fight of the faith, lay hold on the eternal life, to which you were called and confessed the good confession in the sight of many witnesses.
23 let us hold fast the confession of the unwavering hope; for he who promised is faithful:
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 to you, And my iniquity I did not hide: I said, I will confess my transgressions to Yahweh; And you forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah.
24 Yahweh is my portion, says my soul; therefore I will hope in him.
10 Who is this King of glory? Yahweh of hosts, He is the King of glory. Selah.
