Deus
       Atributos e características de Deus (Trindade Divina, essência, eternidade, transcendência, poder)
             Deus é amor, é bondoso, é misericordioso, mas também é um juiz justo, que julga com rigor aqueles que insistem em não se arrepender e seguir os seus mandamentos

 Deus nos ama, como um Pai amoroso, mas também nos castiga quando necessário caso insistamos em desviar de seus ensinamentos, pois não quer que sejamos condenados

4 What am I to do with you, Ephraim? What am I to do with you, Judah? For your love is like morning mist, like the dew that quickly disappears.
5 Therefore have I hacked them to pieces by means of the prophets, I have killed them with words from my mouth, my judgement will blaze forth like the light,
6 for my pleasure is in faithful love, not sacrifice, knowledge of God, not burnt offerings.
7 But they broke the covenant at Adam, there they betrayed me.

3 LORD, what is man that you regard him, the son of man that you keep him in mind,
4 a human who is merely a breath, whose days are like a passing shadow?

1 When Israel was a child I loved him and I called my son out of Egypt.
2 But the more I called, the further they went from me; they offered sacrifice to Baals and burnt incense to idols.
3 I myself taught Ephraim to walk, I myself took them by the arm but they did not know that I was healing them,
4 that I was leading them with human ties, with leading-strings of love, that, with them, I was like someone lifting an infant to his cheek and that I bent down to feed him.
5 He shall return to the land of Egypt, Assyria will be his king. Since they refuse to come back to me,
6 the sword will rage through their towns, destroying their false prophets, devouring them because of their counsel.
7 My people insist on turning from me; they call on the Most High but he does not raise them up.
8 Ephraim, how could I part with you? Israel, how could I give you up? How could I make you like Admah or treat you like Zeboiim? My heart within me is overwhelmed, my whole being burns with compassion.
9 I will not give rein to my fierce wrath, I will not destroy Ephraim again, for I am God and no human, the Holy One in your midst, and I shall not come to you in anger.

12 God is a judge, just and powerful, patient and not finding fault every day.
13 Against someone who does not repent, God will sharpen his sword; he bends his bow and makes ready.
14 For such a one he prepares deadly weapons; he barbs his arrows with fire.
15 Here is one who conceives iniquity; pregnant with malice, he gives birth to lies.
16 He digs a pit and bores it deep; and in the trap he has made he falls.
17 His malice recoils on his head; on his own skull his violence falls.
18 I thank the LORD for his righteousness, and sing to the name of the LORD, the Most High.

2 Give thanks to the LORD upon the harp; with a ten-stringed lute sing him songs.
3 O sing him a song that is new; play skilfully, with shouts of joy.
4 For the word of the LORD is faithful, and all his works to be trusted.
5 The LORD loves justice and right, and his merciful love fills the earth.

5 O Lord, you are good and forgiving, full of mercy to all who call to you.

15 But you, O God, are compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, O Lord, abundant in mercy and fidelity;

1 The LORD is king, let earth rejoice; let the many islands be glad.
2 Cloud and darkness surround him; justice and right are the foundation of his throne.

8 The LORD is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger and rich in mercy.
9 He will not always find fault; nor persist in his wrath for ever.
10 He does not treat us according to our sins, nor repay us according to our faults.
11 For as the heavens are high above the earth, so strong is his mercy for those who fear him.
12 As far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our sins from us.
13 As a father has compassion on his children, the LORD’s compassion is on those who fear him.
14 For he knows of what we are made; he remembers that we are dust.
15 The days of a human are like grass; they flower like the flower of the field.
16 The wind blows, and it is no more, and its place never sees it again.
17 But the mercy of the LORD is everlasting upon those who hold him in fear; upon children’s children his righteousness,
18 for those who keep his covenant, and take care to fulfil his commands.

7 They will recall your abundant goodness, and sing of your righteous deeds with joy.
8 The LORD is kind and full of compassion, slow to anger, abounding in mercy.
9 How good is the LORD to all, compassionate to all his creatures.

10 See the Lord GOD coming with power, his arm rules for him, see, his reward is with him, his prize goes before him.
11 He tends his flock like a shepherd, gathering the lambs in his arms, holding them against his breast and leading the mother ewes.

14 Zion was saying, ‘The LORD has abandoned me, my Lord has forgotten me.’
15 Can a woman forget the baby at her breast, feel no love for the child of her womb? Even if these were to forget, I shall not forget you.
16 Look, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your ramparts are ever before me.

8 In a flood of anger, for a moment I hid my face from you but in everlasting love I have taken pity on you,’ says the LORD, your redeemer.
9 ‘This will be to me as it was in the days of Noah when I swore that Noah’s floodwaters should never again cover the earth. So now I swear never to be angry with you and never to rebuke you.
10 The mountains may depart and the hills may be shaken but my faithful love will never leave you, my covenant of peace will never be shaken,’ says the LORD in his pity for you.

18 What god can compare with you for pardoning guilt and for overlooking crime for the remnant of his heritage? He does not harbour anger for ever since he delights in faithful love.

23 But let anyone who wants to boast, boast of this: of understanding and knowing me. For I am the LORD who acts with faithful love, justice and righteousness on earth; for in these is my delight’ – says the LORD.

1 ‘When that time comes – declares the LORD – I shall be the God o all the families of Israel and they will be my people.’
2 Thus says the LORD, ‘They have found pardon in the desert, the people who survived the sword. Israel is going forward to his rest.
3 The LORD has appeared to him from afar; I have loved you with an everlasting love and so I still maintain my faithful love for you.

30 You will suffer; everything I have said will befall you, but in the final days you will return to the LORD your God and listen to his voice.
31 For the LORD your God is a merciful God and will not desert or destroy you or forget the covenant which he made on oath with your ancestors.

9 And you know that the LORD your God is the true God, the faithful God who, though he is true to his covenant and his faithful love for a thousand generations as regards those who love him and keep his commandments,
10 punishes in their own persons those that hate him. He destroys anyone who hates him, without delay; and it is in their own persons that he punishes them.
11 Hence, you must keep and observe the commandments, laws and customs which I am laying down for you today.
12 ‘If you listen to these ordinances, keep them and observe them, and in return the LORD your God will be true to the covenant and the faithful love which he promised on oath to your ancestors.
13 He will love you and bless you and increase your numbers; he will bless the fruit of your body and the fruit of your soil, your corn, your new wine, your oil, the issue of your cattle, the young of your flock, in the land which he swore to your ancestors that he would give you.

17 They refused to obey, forgetful of the wonders which you had worked for them; they grew obstinate and made up their minds to return to their slavery in Egypt. But because you are a forgiving God, gracious and compassionate, patient and rich in faithful love, you did not abandon them!

16 But they and our ancestors acted arrogantly, grew obstinate and flouted your commands.
17 They refused to obey, forgetful of the wonders which you had worked for them; they grew obstinate and made up their minds to return to their slavery in Egypt. But because you are a forgiving God, gracious and compassionate, patient and rich in faithful love, you did not abandon them!
18 Even when they cast themselves a calf out of molten metal and said, “This is your God who brought you up from Egypt!” and committed monstrous impieties,
19 in your great compassion you did not abandon them in the desert: the pillar of cloud did not leave them, leading them on their path by day, nor the pillar of fire by night, lighting the way ahead of them, the way by which they were to go.
20 You gave them your good spirit to instruct them, you did not withhold your manna from their mouths, you gave them water for their thirst.
21 For forty years you cared for them in the desert, so that they went short of nothing; their clothes did not wear out, nor were their feet swollen.

13 Tear your hearts and not your clothes and come back to the LORD your God, for he is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger, rich in faithful love, and he relents from inflicting disaster.

14 and said, ‘O LORD, God of Israel, there is no god like you in heaven or on earth, as loyal to the covenant and faithful in love to your servants as long as they walk wholeheartedly in your way.

11 My child, do not scorn correction from the LORD, do not resent his reproof;
12 for the LORD reproves those he loves, as a father the child in whom he delights.

8 The sacrifice of the wicked is abhorrent to the LORD, dear to him is the prayer of the honest.
9 The path of the wicked is abhorrent to the LORD, but he loves the person whose goal is righteousness.
10 Correction is severe for one who leaves the way, whoever hates being reprimanded will die.

19 You will say, ‘Branches were broken off for me to be grafted in.’ That is all very well;
20 they were broken off because of their unbelief, and you gained your place through your faith. Do not take pride in yourself but be wary.
21 If God did not spare the natural branches, he may not spare you either.
22 Remember God’s severity as well as his goodness: his severity to those who fell, and to you his goodness as long as you persevere in it; if not, you too will be cut off.
23 And they, if they do not persevere in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them back in again.
24 After all, if you, cut off from what was by nature a wild olive, could then be grafted unnaturally on to a cultivated olive, how much more easily will these natural branches be grafted on to their own olive tree!

35 Instead, love your enemies and do good to them, and lend without any hope of return. You will have a great reward, and you will be children of the Most High, for he himself is kind to the ungrateful and the wicked.
36 ‘Be compassionate just as your Father is compassionate.

16 For God loved the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life.

15 If you love me you will keep my commandments.
^[...]
21 Whoever holds to my commandments and keeps them is the one who loves me; and whoever loves me will be loved by my Father, and I shall love and reveal myself to that person.’
22 Judas – not Judas Iscariot – said to him, ‘Lord, what has happened, that you will reveal yourself to us and not to the world?’
23 Jesus replied and said to him: ‘Anyone who loves me will keep my word, and will be loved by my Father, and we shall come and make a home in that person.
24 Anyone who does not love me does not keep my words. And the word that you hear is not my own: it is the word of the Father who sent me.

1 See what great love the Father has lavished on us by letting us be called God’s children, and that is what we are! The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him.

1 Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God, and whoever loves the father loves the son.
2 In this we know that we love God’s children, whenever we love God and keep his commandments,
3 for this is what the love of God is: keeping his commandments; and his commandments are not burdensome, because whatever is born of God conquers the world,
4 and this is the victory that has overcome the world – our faith.

4 But God, being rich in mercy, through the great love with which he loved us,
5 even when we were dead by our sins, brought us to life in Christ – it is through grace that you have been saved –
6 and raised us up with him and seated us with him in heaven, in Christ Jesus,

5 Have you forgotten that encouraging text which addresses you as sons? My son, do not scorn correction from the Lord, do not resent his training,
6 for the Lord trains those he loves, and chastises every son he accepts.
7 Persevere for the sake of training! God is treating you as his sons. What son is there whom the father does not train?
8 If you were not getting the training, in which all sons share, then you would be not sons but bastards.
9 Besides, we have all had our human fathers who disciplined us, and we respected them for it; should we not all the more readily submit to the Father of spirits, and so earn life?
10 Our human fathers were training us for a short life and according to their own lights; but he does it all for our own good, so that we may share his holiness.
11 Of course, any discipline at the time is painful rather than pleasant; but later, in those who have undergone it, it bears the peaceful fruit of righteousness.

18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against the ungodliness and injustice of those who by their injustice suppress the truth.

5 Listen, my dear brothers and sisters: did not God choose the poor in the world to be rich in faith and to be the heirs to the kingdom which he promised to those who love him?
6 You, on the other hand, have dishonoured the poor. Is it not the rich who lord it over you?
7 Are not they the ones who drag you into court, who insult the honourable nameb which has been pronounced over you?
8 If, however, you keep the royal Law of scripture, ‘You shall love your neighbour as yourself’, you are doing well.
9 But as soon as you become partial, you are committing sin and are condemned for breaking the Law.
10 Anyone who keeps the whole of the Law but trips up on a single point, is still guilty of breaking it all.
11 He who said, ‘You shall not commit adultery’ said also, ‘You shall not murder.’ If you commit adultery but do not commit murder you have still transgressed the Law.
12 Talk and behave like people who are going to be judged by the law of freedom.
13 Whoever acts without mercy will be judged without mercy, but mercy triumphs over judgement.
14 How does it help, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but does not have works? Will faith save that person?
15 If one of the brothers or one of the sisters is in need of clothes and has not enough food to live on,
16 and one of you says to them, ‘Go in peace. Keep warm and eat plenty,’ without giving them the bare necessities of life, what good is that?
17 In the same way faith: if good deeds do not go with it, it is quite dead by itself.
18 But someone may say, ‘So you have faithd and I have good deeds.’ Show me this faith of yours without deeds then, and I will show you faith by means of my deeds!
19 You believe in the one God – fine! But even the demons have belief, and they tremble with fear.
20 Fool! Do you want to know that faith without deeds is barren?
21 Abraham our father was not justified by his deeds when he offered his son Isaac on the altar.
22 So you can see that his faith cooperated with his works, and his faith was completed by his works.
23 In this way the scripture was fulfilled: Abraham put his faith in God, and this was considered as making him righteous, and he received the name ‘friend of God’.
24 You see that it is by deeds, and not only by believing, that someone is justified.
25 Similarly, Rahab the prostitute, was she not justified by her deeds when she welcomed the messengers and sent them away by a different road?
26 As a body without a spirit is dead, so is faith without deeds.

19 I reprove and train those whom I love: so repent in earnest.
