Vícios

Por Bíblia Online –

A Bíblia nos alerta contra os vícios e comportamentos destrutivos. Deus nos chama à liberdade em Cristo, não à escravidão de desejos e hábitos que consomem corpo e alma.

A escravidão do pecado

Todo vício é uma forma de escravidão. Jesus veio para libertar os cativos e restaurar a verdadeira liberdade dos filhos de Deus.

34 Jesus answered them, Truly, truly, I say to you, Whoever commits sin is the servant of sin.

36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.

36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.

31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If you continue in my word, then are you my disciples indeed;32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty with which Christ has made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

16 Know you not, that to whom you yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants you are to whom you obey; whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?

Resistência e domínio próprio

O fruto do Espírito inclui o domínio próprio. O cristão é chamado a ter controle sobre seus desejos, resistir à tentação e vigiar contra as obras da carne.

21 Contentions, murders, drunkenness, revelings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

12 All things are lawful to me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

12 All things are lawful to me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

13 There has no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that you may be able to bear it.

13 There has no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that you may be able to bear it.

41 Watch and pray, that you enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith works patience.

Libertação e renovação

Em Cristo somos libertos de toda forma de dependência. Pela renovação da mente, aprendemos a discernir e rejeitar o que nos prende.

1 I beseech you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.2 And be not conformed to this world: but be you transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

11 Likewise reckon you also yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God through Jesus Christ our Lord.12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in the lusts thereof.13 Neither yield you your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin: but yield yourselves to God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.

5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that from now on we should not serve sin.

11 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men,12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;

2 That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.3 For the time past of our life may suffice us to have worked the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revelings, parties, and abominable idolatries:4 Wherein they think it strange that you run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:5 Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.6 For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.7 But the end of all things is at hand: be you therefore sober, and watch to prayer.

8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

13 He that covers his sins shall not prosper: but whoever confesses and forsakes them shall have mercy.

O corpo como templo

Nosso corpo é templo do Espírito Santo. Devemos honrar a Deus com o corpo, fugindo da embriaguez, da imoralidade e de toda impureza.

19 What? know you not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which you have of God, and you are not your own?

9 Know you not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortionists, shall inherit the kingdom of God.11 And such were some of you: but you are washed, but you are sanctified, but you are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;

1 Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whoever is deceived thereby is not wise.

23 Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for your stomach' sake and your often infirmities.

16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walks about, seeking whom he may devour:

13 You are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his flavor, with which shall it be salted? it is thereafter good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For your is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

11 For it is written, As I live, said the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.12 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.
