Alguns dias atrás, alguns pensamentos invadiram a minha cabeça e eu queria compartilhar com vocês.
Some days ago, some thoughts invaded my head and I wanted to share it with you.

1 - A mídia e a cultura | The media and the culture:
Muitas vezes as pessoas pensam que a mídia (Tv, rádio, internet…) refletem a cultura de um país. No entanto, a verdade é que a mídia tem moldado a nossa cultura. Não podemos ser ingênuos ao pensar que as coisas estão na TV por acaso, pois o inimigo tem usado a mídia para infiltrar coisas na nossa cabeça. Não sei o que tem passado na TV do Brasil, mas imagino que vai de mal a pior.
Many times, people think that the media (tv, radio, internet...) reflect the culture of a country. Therefore, the truth is that media has molded our culture. We can't be naive and think that the things are on TV randomly, because the enemy has been using the media to put things in our minds. I don't know what's going on the TV in Brazil, but I imagine that it's going from bad to worst.

Eu acredito que a cultura do Reino precisa penetrar na mídia. Precisamos de jornalistas, escritores, músicos, blogueiros, fotógrafos cristãos, comprometidos com Cristo, que irão moldar a nossa cultura. Mesmo que a gente comece atingindo apenas o povo cristão, já é um grande começo pois precisamos transformar a nossa mente de acordo com a Palavra de Deus.
I believe that the Kingdom Culture needs to get inside media. We need Christian journalists, writers, musicians, bloggers, photographers, committed with Christ, that will shape our culture. Even if we start by reaching only Christians, it is already a huge start, because we need to transform our minds according to the Word of God.

Romanos 12:2 - Não vivam como vivem as pessoas deste mundo, mas deixem que Deus os transforme por meio de uma completa mudança da mente de vocês. Assim vocês conhecerão a vontade de Deus, isto é, aquilo que é bom, perfeito e agradável a ele.
Romans 12:2 - Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
Vamos nos posicionar como cristãos e mostrar a todos a diferença que faz pertencer a Jesus!
"Por amor de Ti oh Brasil, não me calarei nem me aquietarei!"
Let's position ourselves as Christians and show everyone the difference we had by belonging to Jesus!
"For my love for you oh Brazil, I won't shut myself neither quiet myself"

2 - Pecados interiores e pecados exteriores | Inside sins and outside sins
Muitas pessoas vivem focando nas leis do Antigo Testamento. Não é por nada não, mas um dos pastores que ouvimos pregar recentemente falou que deveríamos viver de acordo com o "código de santidade", descrito em Levíticos 17-19. Tudo bem, concordo com o que ele falou e tal, só que ele se esqueceu de mencionar que santidade também está no interior. Jesus mesmo disse "Pois é do interior, do coração dos homens, que procedem os maus pensamentos, as prostituições, os furtos, os homicídios, os adultérios, a cobiça, as maldades, o dolo, a libertinagem, a inveja, a blasfêmia, a soberba, a insensatez; todas estas más coisas procedem de dentro e contaminam o homem." Marcos 7:21-23
Many people focus all the time on the law of the Old Testament. We heard a pastor lately and he said that we should live according to the 'holiness law' described in Leviticus 17-19. Ok, I agree with what he said, but he forgot to mention that holiness is also in the inside. Jesus himself said "For from within, out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft,murder, adultery, coveting, wickedness, deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride,foolishness. All these evil things come from within, and they defile a person.” Mark 7:21-23

Acho que nós cristãos precisamos tomar cuidado pra não viver debaixo da lei de Levíticos, preocupados com o que as outras pessoas vêem e sim, lembrar que Deus vê o nosso interior, ele sabe a motivação do nosso coração em fazer as coisas. Precisamos ser santos de dentro pra fora ;)
I think we as Christians should take care not to live under the law of Leviticus, worried about what people see, but remember that God sees our inside, he knows the motivation in our hearts to do these things. We need to be holy from the inside out :)

3 - Que eu preciso estar alerta | That I need to be aware
Sim, eu preciso estar sempre alerta, porque quanto mais eu aprendo sobre a Bíblia, maior é a tendência de eu julgar o que as outras pessoas falam. Eu quero ter um coração ensinável!
Yes, I need to be always aware, because the more I learn about the Bible, biggest is the tendency I have to judge what other people say. I want to have a teachable heart.
