Videos Revisit Messages and Moments That Have Marked the Church’s Journey
Among the content is a message presented by Bishop Macedo during the Faith Symposium in São Paulo in 2012. On that occasion, he spoke about what God expects from human beings and highlighted the importance of a relationship of faith with Him.
The Golden Jubilee series brings together content from different periods in the history of The Universal Church. The purpose is to revisit messages and teachings presented over the years, allowing the public to discover or remember content that continues to relate to the Christian life.
In the message recorded in 2012, Bishop Edir Macedo addresses what God expects from those who desire to follow Him. Among the points presented are the need for faith, dependence on God, and the difference between having a relationship with Him and simply practicing a religion.
According to the message, a relationship with God does not depend on social status, knowledge, or perfection. The central point is to recognize our own need for God and trust in Him.
Bishop Macedo also distinguishes between faith and religiosity. According to the teaching presented, it is not enough to follow religious practices; it is necessary to believe in God and develop a relationship of trust with Him.
Another point highlighted is dependence on God. Recognizing that you need Him, even without seeing Him, demonstrates an attitude of humility and trust.
The message also connects spiritual life with other areas of life. According to Bishop Macedo, when a person establishes a relationship with God, they find a foundation for guiding their choices and their life according to principles of faith.
