A parábola da Rede/ The parable of the Net



O que eu preciso dizer é o seguinte, que foi outra leitura que eu fiz no dia ontem que está em Mateus 13: 47 - 50.
Mas antes de chegar nessa passagem é bom lembrar de uma coisa que aconteceu antes dessa passagem. Quando Jesus estava chamando seus discípulos, Ele disse algo para eles que é muito importante para essa próxima passagem. "E disse Jesus: "Sigam-me, e eu os farei pescadores de homens".Marcos 1:17; com isso em mente, a nossa próxima passagem a de Mateus ""O Reino dos céus é ainda como uma rede que é lançada ao mar e apanha toda sorte de peixes.
Quando está cheia, os pescadores a puxam para a praia. Então se assentam e juntam os peixes bons em cestos, mas jogam fora os ruins. Assim acontecerá no fim desta era. Os anjos virão, separarão os perversos dos justos e lançarão aqueles na fornalha ardente, onde haverá choro e ranger de dentes". Mateus 13:47-50
 Então pense comigo, nós sabemos que cada um de nós temos uma função aqui na terra para ser desenvolvida, certo? Antes de Jesus subir aos céus Ele disse para ir, pregar o evangelho a TODA criatura.
Enquanto pescadores de homens, não temos que estar escolhendo que tipo de peixe ou pessoa nós vamos falar do amor de Jesus. Não podemos separar quem merece ou quem não merece com o nosso julgamento. Primeiro porque não somos nós que vamos fazer o julgamento final. Segundo, porque a partir do momento que começamos a julgar, já começamos a pecar, nada nos faz melhor ou diferente do próximo. Só o amor de Jesus é que nos ajuda a vencer diariamente; é com a misericórdia Dele que não somos consumidos, que ainda estamos vivos. Deus nos ama igualmente, porque todos nós somos pecadores. E não existe categoria de tamanho de pecado. Existe pecado. E todos nós pecamos.
Terceiro, Jesus durante todo o seu ministério, ele mostrou de diversas formas que todos mereciam ser tratados com amor, respeito, cuidado. Nem quando ele podia acusar, Ele não acusou. E por que você ou eu pensamos que podemos acusar? Ou se achar melhor que a outra pessoa?

No fim dos tempos não é o que você acha que é certo ou errado, justo ou injusto, bom ou mal que vai prevalecer, mas a vontade de Deus. O julgamento será DEle.

What I need to say is this, which was another reading I did the day before that is in Matthew 13: 47-50.

But before arriving at this passage it is good to remember something that happened before that passage. When Jesus was calling His disciples, He said something to them that is very important for this next passage. "And Jesus said," Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. "Mark 1:17, with this in mind, our next passage to Matthew." 47 “Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was let down into the lake and caught all kinds of fish. 48 When it was full, the fishermen pulled it up on the shore. Then they sat down and collected the good fish in baskets, but threw the bad away. 49 This is how it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous 50 and throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. "Matthew 13: 47-50

 So think with me, we do know that each one of us has a function here on earth to be developed, right? Before Jesus went up into heaven He said to go, preach the gospel to ALL creatures.

As fishers of men, we do not have to be choosing what kind of fish or person we are going to talk about Jesus' love. We can not separate who deserves or who does not deserve with our judgment. Firstly because it is not we who will make the final judgment. Second, because from the moment we begin to judge or decide, we begin to sin, nothing makes us better or different from our neighbor. It is only the love of Jesus that helps us to win daily; it is with His mercy that we are not consumed, that we are still alive. God loves us equally because we are all sinners. And there is no size category of sin. There is sin. And we all sin.

Third, Jesus throughout his ministry, he showed in various ways that everyone deserved to be treated with love, respect, care. Even when he could accuse, he didn't. And why do you or I think we can blame? Or if you think you're better than the other person?

At the end of the age, it won't be what you think that is right or wrong, just or unjust, good or evil that will determine who is going to hell or heaven. But the judgment is God's.

Choose to be full of...// Escolha ser cheio de...

Can you choose to be   Joyful? (Full of joy) Peaceful? (full of peace) Patient? (full of patience) Kind? (full of kindness) Good? (full of goodness) Faithful? (full of faith) Gentle? (full of gentleness) Generous? (full of generosity) Self-controlled? (totally self-controlled) Can you choose to be like that all the time? To everyone?   What other religion would promise you that? I am not saying that all Christians are like that all the time. No, we are not, unfortunately. However, we are prone to be more successful than others, do you know why?  When Jesus was lifted to the heavens after his resurrection, he promised that a few days later, His Spirit would come to live in us. The Holy Spirit is our helper. When we live a godly life, a prayer life, and are filled with the Holy Spirit, those are the characteristics that should be seen in us—if not all of them, at least most of them.  Would you like to live like that? To treat people like that? Well, I suppose so. ...

My take on these stories // Minha opinião nessas histórias

The 2 Samuel 9 and 10 are about David’s kindness toward others. One person received his kindness humbly, knowing that wasn’t expected from that king in particular. Saul was the first king of Israel and did not obey the word of the LORD. Therefore, the kingdom was taken away from him and his lineage. God announced to Saul that he was going to give the kingdom to someone else. Being David. Because David was not a descendant of Saul, once he started reigning, it was expected that the new king, non-descendant of the former, would kill all the former king’s descendants so no one would stand in the line of succession. Bu David did not do that. Instead, he chose to show kindness toward the last person from Saul’s house.  Saul’s grandson accepted David’s kindness. And we have a beautiful story about grace.  Chapter 10, however, tells a different story. A story of a man who didn’t accept David’s kindness because that was what he was. A person who suspected everyone around him. He ...

Arise and eat // Levante e coma

  He came to a broom bush, sat under it, and prayed that he might die. “I have had enough,  Lord ,” he said. “Take my life; I am no better than my ancestors.”   5 Then he lay down under the bush and fell asleep. All at once, an angel touched him and said, “Get up and eat.”   6 He looked around, and there by his head was some bread baked over hot coals, and a jar of water. He ate and drank and then lay down again. 7 The angel of the  Lord  came back a second time and touched him and said, “Get up and eat, for the journey is too much for you.”   8 So he got up and ate and drank. Strengthened by that food, he traveled forty days and forty nights until he reached Horeb, the mountain of God. (1 Kings 19: 4-8) How many times have you wished that this life were over? I have wished that many times. Sometimes it is just too painful, or sad, or hopeless, isn’t it? You know, Elijah...
