PHA akukho kuvangela ngaphandle kukaMoya oyiNgcwele. Emva kokuchitha iminyaka emithathu bemamele, behamba, bethetha, beloba, besitya kunye, belele ecaleni kwabo, kwaye bebeka nokuba phezu kwebele leNkosi yethu… abaPostile babebonakala bengakwazi ukungena iintliziyo zezizwe ngaphandle IPentekoste.

NDINGU Ukuqikelela ukuba uninzi lwabafundi bam baziva bengengcwele. Obo bungcwele, ubungcwele, enyanisweni yinto engenakwenzeka kobu bomi. Sithi, “Ndibuthathaka kakhulu, ndona kakhulu, ndibuthathaka ukuba ndingaze ndiphakame ndiye kufika kumalungisa.” Sifunda iZibhalo ngolu hlobo lulandelayo, kwaye siziva ukuba zibhalwe kwiplanethi eyahlukileyo:
… Njengokuba lowo unibizayo engcwele, yibani ngcwele nani ngokwenu kuyo yonke ihambo, kuba kubhaliwe kwathiwa, Yibani ngcwele, ngokuba ndingcwele mna (1 Pet. 1: 15-16)
Okanye indalo eyahlukileyo:
Ngoko yibani ngabafezekileyo, njengokuba uYihlo osemazulwini efezekile. (Mat. 5:48)
Akunakwenzeka? Ngaba uThixo angasibuza — hayi, umyalelo thina-ukuba yinto esingenako ukuyenza? Ewe ewe, kuyinyani, asinakuba ngcwele ngaphandle kwakhe, Lowo ungumthombo wabo bonke ubungcwele. UYesu wayengenangqondo:
Mna ndingumdiliya, nina ningamasebe. Lowo uhleli kum, ndibe mna ndihleli kuye, yena uthwala isiqhamo esininzi, ngokuba ngaphandle kwam aninakwenza nto. (UYohane 15: 5)
Inyani yile-kwaye uSathana unqwenela ukuyigcina ikude kuwe-ubungcwele abunakwenzeka kuphela, kodwa bunokwenzeka ngoku.
