Ser de confiança
A confiabilidade é uma marca do caráter cristão. A Bíblia exalta aqueles que são fiéis em suas palavras, compromissos e na missão que Deus lhes confiou.
Fidelidade como vocação
Ser de confiança é refletir o caráter de Deus, que é fiel em todas as suas promessas. A fidelidade se prova nas pequenas e grandes coisas.
45 "Who, then, is the faithful and wise servant whom his master has put in charge of his household to give the otherstheir food at the right time?
22 You will be hated by everyone because of my name. But the person who endures to the end will be saved.
Integridade e verdade
O cristão confiável fala a verdade, cumpre suas promessas e persevera até o fim, mesmo quando o caminho é difícil.
15 Instead, by speaking the truth in love, we will grow up completely into the one who is the head, that is, into Christ,16 in whom the whole body is united and held together by every ligament with which it is supplied. As each individual part does its job, the body's growth is promoted so that it builds itself up in love.
10 Don't be afraid of what you are going to suffer. Look! The devil is going to throw some of you into prison so that you may be tested. For ten days you will undergo suffering. Be faithful until death, and I will give you the victor's crown of life.
