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.
4 For the Word of the LORD [is] right; and all His works [are] in truth.
45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his Lord has made ruler over His household, to give them food in due season?
22 And you will be hated of all [men] for My name's sake, but the [one] who endures to [the] end shall be kept safe.
Integridade e verdade
O cristão confiável fala a verdade, cumpre suas promessas e persevera até o fim, mesmo quando o caminho é difícil.
15 But that you, speaking the truth in love, may in all things grow up to Him who is the Head, [even] Christ;16 from whom the whole body, fitted together and compacted by that which every joint supplies, according to [the] effectual working in the measure of each part, producing the growth of the body to the edifying of itself in love.
10 Do not at all fear what you are about to suffer. Behold, the Devil will cast [some] of you into prison, so that you may be tried. And you will have tribulation ten days. Be faithful to death, and I will give you the crown of life.
