Versi relativi a Romans, 15:

Chapter 15 of Romans deals mainly on the importance of unity and Christian love among the brothers, and also about Paul's mission to bring the Gospel to the Gentiles. The following verses are related to these topics:

1 Corinthians 1:10: "I pray, brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you speak all the same thing, and that there is no divisions among you; first be united in the same thought and the same opinion." This verse emphasizes the importance of unity among Christians, something emphasized in chapter 15 of Romans.

Ephesians 4:3: "Striving diligently for preserving the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace." Again, the unit is emphasized, showing the importance of working to maintain peace and unity.

John 13:34-35: "A new commandment I give you, Let you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love each other. " Jesus teaches about Christian love as a witness to the world, something Paul emphasizes in Romans chapter 15.

2 Corinthians 5:18-19: "But everything comes from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; for God was in Christ reconciling the world, not imputing his transgressions to men. , and entrusted us with the word of reconciliation. " Reconciliation through Christ is a central theme of the Gospel, and is mentioned by Paul in Romans 15:16.

1 Thessalonians 1:8-9: "For, starting from you, the word of the Lord was not only in Macedonia and Acaia, but also everywhere your faith to God has become known, so that We have no need to say anything. " Just as Paul highlights his mission of bringing the Gospel to the Gentiles in Romans 15, here we see the diffusion of the message by the Thessalonians.





“Não queremos aceitar o fato de que o sofrimento é necessário para nossa alma e de que a cruz deve ser o nosso pão cotidiano. Assim como o corpo precisa ser nutrido, também a alma precisa da cruz, dia a dia, para purificá-la e desapegá-la das coisas terrenas. Não queremos entender que Deus não quer e não pode salvar-nos nem santificar-nos sem a cruz. Quanto mais Ele chama uma alma a Si, mais a santifica por meio da cruz.” São Padre Pio de Pietrelcina
