UQEQESHO, ukungcola, ukuzila ukutya, idini… la ngamagama athanda ukusenza sizinze kuba siwadibanisa nentlungu. Kodwa uYesu akazange. Njengoko uSt. Paul wabhala:

Ngenxa yovuyo olwaluphambi kwakhe, uYesu wawunyamezela umnqamlezo… (Heb 12: 2)

Umahluko phakathi kwemonki yamaKrestu kunye nemonki yamaBuddha yile nto kanye: isiphelo somkristu asikokungcungcuthekiswa kweemvakalelo zakhe, nokuba luxolo nokuzola; koko nguThixo ngokwakhe. Nantoni na encinci iyasilela ukuzaliseka njengokuphosa ilitye esibhakabhakeni kusilela ukubetha inyanga. Ukufezekiswa komKristu kukuvumela uThixo ukuba amfumane ukuze abe noThixo. Yiyo le manyano yeentliziyo eguqula kwaye ibuyisele umphefumlo kumfanekiso kunye nokufana koBathathu Emnye oyiNgcwele. Kodwa nobona manyano bunzulu noThixo bunokuhamba nobumnyama obukhulu, ukoma ngokomoya, kunye nomoya wokulahlwa-njengoYesu, nangona wayevumelana ngokupheleleyo nokuthanda kukaYise, wakuva ukushiywa emnqamlezweni.

Yiyo loo nto uSt. Paul ebhala namhlanje:

Uqeqesho lukaYehova, nyana wam, musa ukulucekisa, Ungakruquki sisohlwayo sakhe; Kuba lowo imthandayo iNkosi iyamqeqesha, ubetha wonke unyana amamkelayo… Ngelo xesha, lonke uqeqesho lubonakala ngathi alungonobangela wovuyo kodwa lwentlungu, kanti kamva luzisa isiqhamo soxolo sobulungisa kwabo baqeqeshiweyo siso. (Ufundo lokuqala)

Kufuneka, njengamakholwa, sithathe imbono eyahlukileyo yokubandezeleka kungenjalo kuya kusityumza imimoya yethu. Kukaninzi sikhala sithi "Kutheni !!?" kuThixo xa yonke into ihamba gwenxa kunokuba ithi, "Njani?" Inqwenela njani iNkosi ukuba ndiphile ngalo mzuzu unje? Akukho nto iza kuthi ingaqali idlule ezandleni zikaBawo wethu wasezulwini onothando, njengazo zonke izabhokhwe, onke ameva, zonke iziqalekiso, sonke isikhonkwane esingakhange siyichukumise inyama nentliziyo kaKristu ngaphandle kokuthanda kukaYise. Ngalo moya wentembeko, lonke usizi lukaKrestu, emva koko, lwayalelwa kuvuyo olwaluphambi kwakhe. Lwaluyintoni olo vuyo? Ukuvula amasango eZulu; ukumilisela ixesha loMoya oyiNgcwele; ukwamkela kuphela abazalwana noodade, kodwa bazenze ngokomfanekiso wakhe. Uvuyo lukaYesu lwaluyalelwe ngokupheleleyo uvuyo lwethu.

Ukuba nithi niyigcine imithetho yam, hlalani eluthandweni lwam; njengokuba mna ndayigcinayo imithetho kaBawo, ndahlala eluthandweni lwakhe. Ezi zinto ndizithethile kuni, ukuze uvuyo lwam luhlale kuni, luthi novuyo lwenu luzaliseke. (UYohane 15: 10-11)

Uyabona ke, ukuba senza u Yesu injongo yethu, ukuba senza ukuthanda kwakhe kobungcwele kube sisikhokelo sethu- oko kuthetha ukuba kufuneka siqeqeshe, sibulale, kwaye sizikhwebule kwiminqweno yenyama egqithisileyo — ngoko ke iziqhamo zoxolo zalo ziya kuba luvuyo. Kodwa ayisiyongxaki leyo, ukuba kushushu nje okomzuzwana-xa ujonge iqhekeza lakho lesithathu lekhekhelethi, okanye igama elingenabubele lisemilebeni yakho, okanye isikhombisi sakho sempuku sihamba ngaphezulu kwekhonkco elingenaThixo-ngaba xa siphulukana nenjongo? Xa ukude, iGolgotha ​​ikhangeleka ngathi yintaba entle entle. Kodwa xa silapho, emnqamlezweni, silibale ngokukhawuleza ukuba yintoni iKalvari! Zingisa, umntakwethu nodade wethu. Musa ukutshintshisa uvuyo kunye noxolo oluvela kuThixo, ewe, uThixo ngokwakhe, ngento encinci.

Ngoko ke ekubeni uKristu eve ubunzima esenyameni, xhobani nani kwaloo ngcingane; kaThixo. (1 Pet 4: 1-2)

Okokugqibela, qonda ukuba akukho hlazo ekuvumeni ubuthathaka bakho, akukho hlazo, enyanisweni, kwi ukubaleka kwisilingo. KwiVangeli namhlanje, abantu 'abo bamvayo [uYesu] bothuka. Babesithi, Lo mntu uzuze phi na konke oku? Hlobo luni lobulumko anikwe lona? ” Impendulo kukuba uYesu wayethobela. Intlango yesilingo kwaye ukuthobela kuvelise isiqhamo sobulumko. Ngokunjalo, "oobawo benkqantosi" yayingamadoda abaleka ngokwenyani izilingo zehlabathi, asabela kwimimandla yase-Egypt. Kwaye apho, isiqhamo sobulumko satyatyamba, senza isiseko se-monasticism kunye nemephu yangaphakathi yomanyano noThixo. Ngokuba,

Ukoyika uYehova kukuqala kokwazi; Ubulumko noqeqesho izimathane ziludelile. (IMiz. 1: 7)

… Ikamva lehlabathi lisemngciphekweni ngaphandle kokuba kuza abantu abazizilumko. —IPOPA ST. UYOHANE PAUL IIFamiliaris Consortium, n. I-8
