Salvação
A salvação é a obra suprema de Deus. Pela graça, mediante a fé, somos salvos — não por obras, para que ninguém se glorie. É o presente mais precioso que a humanidade pode receber.
A salvação pela graça
A salvação é dom de Deus, não resultado de esforço humano. Somos justificados pela fé em Cristo Jesus e reconciliados com Deus pelo seu amor.
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; itis the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.
not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit,
who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began,
The Just Live by Faith
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
O caminho da salvação
Quem confessa Jesus como Senhor e crê em sua ressurreição será salvo. A fé em Cristo é o único caminho para a salvação.
that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
So they said, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household."
So they said, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household."
Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."
And it shall come to pass
Thatwhoever calls on the name of the Lord
Shall be saved.’
Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:
Nova vida em Cristo
Quem está em Cristo é nova criação. A salvação não é apenas perdão, mas transformação completa — de dentro para fora, para a glória de Deus.
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, heisa new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.
Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."
and said, "Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.
Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.
Segurança eterna
O crente tem a certeza da salvação. Ninguém pode arrebatar da mão de Deus aqueles que Ele chamou, justificou e glorificou.
And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.
He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him."
whom having not seen you love. Though now you do not see Him, yet believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory, receiving the end of your faith—the salvation of your souls.
He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.
A salvação presente e futura
A salvação é passada (justificação), presente (santificação) e futura (glorificação). Deus nos salva, nos guarda e nos conduz à vida eterna.
Trained by Saving Grace
For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age,
And according to the law almost all things are purified with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission.
so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation.
For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.
For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive.
Nada é impossível para Deus
Aos homens é impossível, mas para Deus tudo é possível. Ele deseja que todos sejam salvos e cheguem ao conhecimento da verdade.
But Jesus looked at them and said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible."
But He said, "The things which are impossible with men are possible with God."
for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost."
For so the Lord has commanded us:
‘I have set you as a light to the Gentiles,
That you should be for salvation to the ends of the earth.’ "
The Narrow Way
"Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it.Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.
Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.
Then Jesus said to him, "Go your way; your faith has made you well." And immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus on the road.
A Calm Resolve to Wait for the Salvation of God
Truly my soul silently waits for God;
From Him comes my salvation.
You have also given me the shield of Your salvation;
Your right hand has held me up,
Your gentleness has made me great.
You enlarged my path under me,
So my feet did not slip.
A Hymn of Faith
Though the fig tree may not blossom,
Nor fruit be on the vines;
Though the labor of the olive may fail,
And the fields yield no food;
Though the flock may be cut off from the fold,
And there be no herd in the stalls—
Yet I will rejoice in the Lord,
I will joy in the God of my salvation.
Since you were precious in My sight,
You have been honored,
And I have loved you;
Therefore I will give men for you,
And people for your life.
