Renascimento

Nascer de novo é o início da vida cristã. Jesus ensinou que sem o novo nascimento ninguém pode ver o Reino de Deus. É uma obra sobrenatural do Espírito Santo.

Nascer de novo

Jesus declarou a Nicodemos: 'Aquele que não nascer de novo não pode ver o Reino de Deus.' O renascimento é pela água e pelo Espírito.

3 Jesus answered and said to him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except any one be born anew he cannot see the kingdom of God.

João 3:3

5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except any one be born of water and of Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

João 3:5

6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

João 3:6

5 not on the principle of works which have been done in righteousness which we had done, but according to his own mercy he saved us through the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit,

Tito 3:5

Nova criação em Cristo

Quem está em Cristo é nova criação. Nascemos de novo pela Palavra viva e permanente de Deus, não de semente corruptível.

17 So if any one be in Christ, there is a new creation; the old things have passed away; behold all things have become new:

2 Coríntios 5:17

23 being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the living and abiding word of God.

1 Pedro 1:23

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to his great mercy, has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from among the dead,

1 Pedro 1:3

2 as newborn babes desire earnestly the pure mental milk of the word, that by it ye may grow up to salvation,

1 Pedro 2:2

Os frutos do renascimento

Quem nasceu de Deus vence o mundo, ama o próximo e tem a certeza de que Deus completará a boa obra que começou.

4 For all that has been begotten of God gets the victory over the world; and this is the victory which has gotten the victory over the world, our faith.
