UKUHAMBA ngaselwandle lwaseGalili ngenye intsasa, ndandizibuza ukuba kwenzeka njani ukuba uYesu enqatshelwe ade angcungcuthekiswe kwaye abulawe. Ndiyathetha, nangu Lowo wayengathandanga kuphela, kodwa wayenjalo uthando uqobo: “Kuba uThixo uluthando.” [1]1 John 4: 8 Yonke imiphefumlo emva koko, lonke igama, konke ukujonga, yonke ingcinga, wonke umzuzu wawuzaliswe luthando oluNgcwele, kangangokuba aboni abomeleleyo babeya kushiya yonke into ngaxeshanye sisandi selizwi lakhe kuphela.
Waphinda waphuma, waya ngaselwandle. Beza kuye bonke abantu, wabafundisa. Uthe ke edlula, wabona uLevi, unyana ka-Alifeyu, ehleli endaweni yerhafu; Wathi ke yena kuye, Ndilandele. Waphakama ke, wamlandela (Marko 2:13-14).
Wathi kubo, Ndilandeleni; ndonenza nibe ngababambisi babantu. Bayishiya kwaoko iminatha yabo, bamlandela. ( Mateyu 4:19-20 )
Lo nguYesu lowo kufuneka simazise kwakhona ehlabathini. Lo nguYesu oye wangcwatywa ngaphantsi kwentaba yezobupolitika, amahlazo, urhwaphilizo, iyantlukwano, iimfazwe, iiyantlukwano, ukuthanda umsebenzi, ukhuphiswano, ukuzingca nokungakhathali. Ewe, ndithetha ngeBandla laKhe! Ihlabathi alisamazi uYesu—kungekhona ngenxa yokuba lingamfuni—kodwa ngenxa yokuba lingamfumani.
UPHILA KWAKHONA… ETHI
UYesu akatyhilwa ngokukrazula iincwadi zesikhokelo, ukulungisa izakhiwo ezihonjisiweyo, okanye ngokuhambisa amaphecana. Ukususela ekunyukeni kwakhe eZulwini, ufumaneka kwelo qela lamakholwa abizwa ngokuba ngamaKrestu. Ufumaneka kwabo bathe ukwimo yomntu Amazwi Akhe aguquke abe ngomnye uKristu—kungekhona nje ekuxeliseni ubomi baKhe—kodwa kubo bubuntu. Uba a 
inxalenye yabo, babe yinxalenye yaKhe. [2]“…Ngokunjalo thina, sibaninzi nje, simzimba mnye ngokumanywa noKrestu, yaye sonke ngabanye singamalungu omnye elomnye.” — Roma 12:5 Le yimfihlelo entle; ikwayinto eyahlula ubuKristu kuzo zonke ezinye iinkolo. UYesu akazange ehle eze emhlabeni ukuze asiyalele ingqibelelo yethu nonqulo lwethu aze axolise isiqu sethu sobuthixo; kunokuba, waba ngomnye wethu ukuze sibe nguYe.
ayisendim ke odla ubomi, nguKristu ke oselesidla ubomi kum; Njengoko ndiphila nje, ndisenyameni, ndiphila ngokukholwa kuNyana kaThixo, owandithandayo waza wazinikela ngenxa yam. ( Galati 2:20 )
Apha, ngesivakalisi esinye, uPawulos ushwankathele lonke icebo likaThixo lokusindisa ukususela ekuweni kuka-Adam no-Eva. Nantsi ke: UThixo wasithanda kangangokuba wancama ubomi bakhe ukuze siphinde sibufumane obethu. Kwaye buyintoni obu bomi? Imago Dei: senziwe “ngokomfanekiselo kaThixo,” yaye ngaloo ndlela, emfanekisweni woThando. Ukuzifumana kwakhona kukufumana amandla okuphinda sithandwe, size ke sithande njengoko sithandwe—ngaloo ndlela sibuyisela indalo kwimvisiswano yayo yantlandlolo. Emva kokuwa, into yokuqala eyenziwa nguAdam noEva kukufihla. Ukusukela ngoko, oku kuye kwaba sisimo esihlala sihleli somntu wonke, onzakaliswe sisono santlandlolo, ukudlala ukuzimela nokufuna noMdali.
Basive isandi sikaYehova uThixo, ehambahamba emyezweni empepheni yasemini, bazimela uAdam nomkakhe ebusweni bukaYehova uThixo, phakathi kwemithi yomyezo. (IGenesis 3: 8)
Bazimela basiva isandi seNkosi uYehova. Kodwa ngoku, ngoYesu, akuseyomfuneko ukuba sizifihle. UThixo ngokwakhe uze kusincothula emva kweentingo. Uze uThixo ngokwakhe ukuba adle kunye nathi aboni, ukuba sithi simvumele.
UYILIZWI LAKHE
Kodwa uYesu akasahambi ngakuLwandle lwaseGalili okanye kwiindlela zaseYerusalem. Kunoko, ngumKristu othunyelwa ebumnyameni, ukuze ahambe phakathi kwehlabathi lemiphefumlo ezifihlayo ngenxa yezizathu ezithile. Wonke umntu, nokuba uyayazi okanye akayazi, ulindele ukuva ilizwi leNkosi uYehova ehamba phakathi kwabo. Balindile kuwe.
Bangáthini na ke ukumnqula lowo bangakholwanga kuye? Bangáthini na ke ukukholwa kulowo bangevanga ngaye? Bangáthini na ke ukuva kungekho bani ushumayelayo? Bangathini na ke abantu ukushumayela, bengathunywanga? njengokuba kubhaliwe kwathiwa, Hayi, ukuba zintle kwazo iinyawo zabashumayela iindaba ezilungileyo! ( Roma 10:14-15 )
Kodwa “iindaba ezilungileyo” esizizisayo azilolizwi lifileyo; asingokusebenzisa ingqondo okanye “'ipharadaym' okanye 'ixabiso' nje.” [3]UPAPA JOHN PAUL II, I-L'Osservatore Romano, Matshi 24, 1993, iphe. 3. Kunoko, liLizwi eliphilayo, elinamandla, eliguqulayo, elinokuthi, kwabanye, liguqule ihlabathi labo ngephanyazo—kanye njengokuba lenzayo kumlobi kunye nomqokeleli werhafu.
Inene, ilizwi likaThixo liphilile, lisebenza, libukhali ngaphezu kwalo naliphi na ikrele elintlangothi-mbini, lingena phakathi komphefumlo nomoya, amalungu nomongo, liyakwazi ukuqonda ukubonakalisa neengcinga zentliziyo. (Hebhere 4:12)
Noko ke, xa umKristu engaphili oko akushumayelayo, akakuvumeli oko ILizwi eliphilayo ukuba lingene kwanasemphefumlweni wakhe, ubukhali bekrele bunokuba buthuntu, yaye enyanisweni, kunqabile ukuba lisuswe esingxotyeni salo.
Umhlaba ufuna kwaye ulindele kuthi ubomi obulula, umoya wokuthandaza, uthando kubo bonke, ngakumbi kubantu abaphantsi nabangamahlwempu, ukuthobela nokuthobeka, ukuzimela nokuzincama. Ngaphandle kolu phawu lobungcwele, ilizwi lethu liya kuba nobunzima ekuchukumiseni intliziyo yendoda yanamhlanje. Kusemngciphekweni wokuba lilize nokungabinazintsholongwane. —IPOPA ST. UPAWULOS VI, Evangelii Nuntiandi, n. I-76; IVatican.va
Ndiyavuma, ndiziva ndirhoxa namhlanje. Ukujonga nje iCawe ngeliso elibukhali kunokushiya umntu enesigqibo sokuba, ngaphandle kohlanjululo olunzulu nolwendalo, akukho nto inokulibuyisela kulwazi lwesidima kunye nobuthunywa bakhe. Ewe, ndicinga ukuba eli lixesha esifike ngalo. Sekunjalo, njengoko mna nomfazi wam sifunda iileta eziye zagcwala kwibhokisi yethu yeposi kule veki, sichukumiseka ngokunzulu kukubona ukuba kukho. is intsalela yamakholwa afuna ukulandela uYesu. Kukho intsalela ehlanganisene kanye ngoku kwigumbi eliPhezulu lentliziyo kaMariya, ilindele iPentekoste entsha. Yi nina othe intliziyo yam ivutha kuye, ibibhalwe ezicamango zam nemithandazo yam, njengoko ndihlala ndikhunga uThixo, ukuba asinike “ilizwi langoku,” ilizwi eliphilileyo ukuze sithembeke kuye.
Kwaye elo lizwi namhlanje lelokuba sifanele sizithathele nzulu iincwadi zeVangeli. Sifanele ukuba sizincothule ezo zinto zisisono ebomini bethu kwaye sithi “singabi saphinda” kwezo zilingo zisilawuleyo. Ngaphezu koko, nimelwe kukuthi nimfune “ngentliziyo yakho iphela, nangomphefumlo wakho uphela, nangamandla akho ephela, nangengqondo yakho iphela” [4]Luke 10: 27 ukuze abe nako inkululeko ukukutshintsha ukusuka ngaphakathi. Ngale ndlela, uya kuba zizandla neenyawo zikaKristu, ilizwi kunye nokujonga koThixo wakho.
Wenza ntoni ngexesha lakho mntakwethu? Ulinde ntoni Krestu? Kuba ihlabathi likulindele ukuze, nabo, bamfumane uYesu.
Inkxaso yakho yemali kunye nemithandazo kutheni
ufunda le namhlanje.
Ndikusikelele kwaye ndiyabulela.
Ukuhamba noMark kwi The Ngoku iLizwi,
cofa kwibhena engezantsi ukuya rhuma.
I-imeyile yakho ayizokwabelwana naye nabani na.
