Valioso
Cada ser humano é precioso aos olhos de Deus. As Escrituras revelam que fomos criados à imagem divina, resgatados por alto preço e chamados para um propósito eterno.
O valor que Deus nos dá
Nosso valor não vem de conquistas ou aparências, mas do fato de sermos amados pelo Criador. Deus cuida até dos passarinhos — quanto mais de nós!
"Are not two sparrows sold for a small coin and not one of them will fall to the earth without the will of your Father Who is in heaven?"
"Are not all the hairs of your head numbered?"
"Do not fear, because you are more precious than the sparrows".
"So much the more precious is a man than that. Therefore it is permissible for man to be made well on the Shabbat [rest]"
Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God-Theos?
But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: you2f are of more value than many sparrows.
"Behold the birds of the sky which sow not nor reap nor gather into barns, but your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not more precious than they?"
Preciosos aos olhos de Deus
O Senhor declara que somos preciosos e valiosos aos seus olhos. Ele nos chama de propriedade exclusiva e nos reveste de glória.
Since youi were precious in my sight, youi have been honourable, and I have loved youi: therefore will I give men for youi, and people for youri life.
Now therefore, if you2f will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then you2f shall be a peculiar (particular; special; one’s own) treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth [is] my:
Arise, shine; for youri light is come, and the glory of the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) is risen upon youi.
O verdadeiro valor
A Bíblia nos ensina que a fé, a integridade e o caráter são mais valiosos que ouro ou prata. O que tem valor eterno transcende o material.
For in Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah] neither circumcision avails any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which works by love.
Let not mercy and tforsake youi: bind them about youi neck; write them upon the table of youi heart:
So shall youi find favour and good understanding in the sight of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] and man.
The tongue of the just [is as] choice silver: the heart of the wicked [is] little worth.
Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price [is] far above rubies.
But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord - Kurios [he to whom a person belongs] Yeshua [God is Salvation], to testify the Gospel (joyful message) of the grace of God-The Father.
