Nokuba thina okanye ingelosi evela ezulwini
ndimelwe kukuba ndishumayele iindaba ezilungileyo kuni
ingenguye lowo sanishumayezayo.
Makasingelwe phantsi lowo.
(Gal 1: 8)
BAYA wachitha iminyaka emithathu ezinyaweni zikaYesu, ephulaphule ngenyameko kwimfundiso Yakhe. Xa wenyukela eZulwini, wabashiya “uthumo olukhulu” lokuba “Yenzani abafundi abantu beentlanga zonke . . . nibafundisa ukuba bazigcine zonke izinto endiniyalele zona” ( Mateyu 28:19-20 ). Wabathumela ke “UMoya wenyaniso” ukukhokela imfundiso yabo ngokungenasiphoso (Yoh 16:13). Kungoko, usapho lokuqala lwabaPostile ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo lwaluya kuba lunentsingiselo, lumisela umkhombandlela weBandla liphela… nehlabathi.
Ngoko, wathini uPetros??
Intsapho Yokuqala
Isihlwele sasisele ‘sithe manga yaye siphithiphithi,’ ekubeni abapostile babephume kwigumbi eliphezulu bethetha ngeelwimi.[1]cf. Isipho seelwimi kwaye Okungakumbi kwisipho seelwimi aba bafundi bebengazazi iilwimi, kodwa bona abasemzini babeziqonda. Asixelelwa nto; kodwa emva kokuba abagxeki beqale ukutyhola abaPostile ngokunxila, kulapho uPetros wabhengeza ikhaya lakhe lokuqala kumaJuda.
Emva kokushwankathela iziganeko ezenzekileyo, ezinjengokubethelelwa, ukufa, nokuvuswa kukaYesu nendlela ezi ezizalisekisa ngayo iZibhalo, abantu ‘bahlabeka ezintliziyweni.[2]IZenzo 2: 37 Ngoku, kufuneka sinqumame umzuzwana kwaye sicinge ngempendulo yabo. Kwangaloo maYuda kanye awayebandakanyeke ngandlel’ ithile ekubethelweni kukaKristu. 
Kwakutheni ukuze amazwi oyiseko kaPetros agqobhoze iintliziyo zabo kunokuba abavuthise ngomsindo? Ayikho enye impendulo eyaneleyo ngaphandle kwamandla uMoya oyiNgcwele ekuvakaliseni iLizwi likaThixo.
Inene, ilizwi likaThixo liphilile, lisebenza, libukhali ngaphezu kwalo naliphi na ikrele elintlangothi-mbini, lingena phakathi komphefumlo nomoya, amalungu nomongo, liyakwazi ukuqonda ukubonakalisa neengcinga zentliziyo. (Heb. 4: 12)
Olona lungiselelo lugqibeleleyo lomshumayeli alunamsebenzi ngaphandle koMoya oyiNgcwele. Ngaphandle koMoya oyiNgcwele eyona ntetho ikholisayo ayinamandla phezu kwentliziyo yomntu. —IPOPA ST. UPAWULOS VI, Evangelii nuntiandi, n. I-75
Masingayilibali le nto! Nkqu neminyaka emithathu ezinyaweni zikaYesu - ezinyaweni zakhe kanye! - yayinganelanga. UMoya oyiNgcwele wawubalulekile kuthumo lwabo.
Oko kuthetha, uYesu walibiza eli lungu lesithathu likaBathathu Emnye “njengoMoya nyaniso.” Ngoko ke, amazwi kaPetros ngewayengasebenzi kakuhle ukuba wayesilela ukuthobela umyalelo kaKristu wokufundisa “zonke izinto endiniyalele zona.” Ke ngoku isiza, iKhomishini eNkulu okanye "ivangeli" ngamafutshane:
Bahlabeka ezintliziyweni zabo, babuza uPetros nabanye abapostile, besithi, Masenze ntoni na, bazalwana bam? Wathi ke uPetros kubo. “Guqukani nibhaptizwe nonke ngabanye, egameni likaYesu Kristu, ukuze nixolelwe izono zenu; kwaye niya kwamkela isipho soMoya oyiNgcwele. Kuba idinga linikwe nina, nakubantwana benu, nakubo bonke abakude, esukuba iNkosi uThixo wethu iya kubabiza. (Izenzo 2: 37-39)
Eso sivakalisi sokugqibela singundoqo: sisixelela ukuba isibhengezo sikaPetros asikho kubo kuphela kodwa sisenzela thina, kuzo zonke izizukulwana “ezikude.” Ngaloo ndlela, isigidimi seVangeli asitshintshi “kanye namaxesha.” “Ayiphuhli” ukuze iphulukane nondoqo wayo. Ayizi “zinto zintsha” kodwa iba yinto entsha kwisizukulwana ngasinye kuba iLizwi linjalo ngonaphakade. NguYesu, “uLizwi wenziwa inyama.”
Emva koko uPetros ubhala umyalezo: Zisindiseni kwesi sizukulwana sigwenxa. (Izenzo 2: 40)
Ilizwi elikwiLizwi: Guquka
Oku kuthetha ntoni ngokwenene kuthi?
Okokuqala, kufuneka sibuyisele ukholo lwethu kwi amandla eLizwi likaThixo. Uninzi lweentetho zenkolo namhlanje zigxile kwiingxoxo, ukuxolisa, kunye nokubetha isifuba sezakwalizwi - 
oko kukuthi, ukuphumelela iingxoxo. Ingozi yeyokuba isigidimi esisembindini seVangeli siyalahleka kuthotho lweentetho—iLizwi elilahlekileyo ngamazwi! Kwelinye icala, ukuchaneka kwezopolitiko — ukuxhentsa kwiimfanelo neemfuno zeVangeli — kuye kwasinciphisa isigidimi seCawa kwiindawo ezininzi saya kutsho kwiingcamango nje ezingento yanto.
UYesu uyafuna, kuba unqwenela ulonwabo lwethu lwenene. -UPOPE JOHN PAUL II, uMyalezo weSuku loLutsha lweHlabathi ka-2005, eVictoria City, Agasti 27, 2004, Zenit
Ke ngoko ndiyaphinda, ngokukodwa kubabingeleli bethu abaziintanda, nakubazalwana bam abasebulungiseni, ndithi, maniluhlaziye ukholo lwenu kumandla okushumayela iindaba ezilungileyo. kerygma...
…isibhengezo sokuqala kufuneka sivakale ngokuphindaphindiweyo: “UYesu Kristu uyakuthanda; Wancama ubomi bakhe ukuze akusindise; kwaye ngoku uhlala ecaleni kwakho yonke imihla ukuze akukhanyisele, akomeleze kwaye akukhulule.” -IPOPE FRANCIS, U-Evangelii Gaudium, n. I-164
Ngaba uyazi ukuba soyika ntoni? Ilizwi guquka. Kubonakala kum ukuba iBandla namhlanje lineentloni ngeli gama, lisoyika ukuba siya kukhathaza iimvakalelo zomnye umntu… we siya kwaliwa ukuba asitshutshiswa. Ukanti, yayiyintsapho yokuqala ngqa kaYesu!
Guqukani, kuba ubukumkani bamazulu busondele. (Mat 4:17)
Igama elithi guquka ngu a isitshixo oko kuvula umnyango wenkululeko. Kuba uYesu wafundisa oko Wonke umntu owenza isono ulikhoboka lesono. ” ( Yohane 8:34 ) Ngoko ke, ‘ukuguquka’ yenye indlela yokuthi “khululekani!” Lilizwi elithwele amandla xa sivakalisa le nyaniso ngothando! Kwintshumayelo yesibini kaPetros erekhodiweyo, uphinda eyokuqala yakhe:
Guqukani ke ngoko, nijike, ukuze zicinywe izono zenu, kwaye iNkosi ininike amaxesha okuhlaziyeka... (Izenzo 3: 19-20)
Inguquko yindlela esa ekuhlaziyekeni. Kwaye yintoni ephakathi kwezi ncwadi zithengiswayo?
Ukuba nithi niyigcine imithetho yam, hlalani eluthandweni lwam, njengokuba nam ndayigcinayo imithetho kaBawo, ndahlala eluthandweni lwakhe. Ezi zinto ndizithethile kuni, ukuze uvuyo lwam lube kuni, luthi novuyo lwenu luzaliseke. (UYohane 15: 10-11)
Ke ngoko, intshumayelo yokuqala, esele imfutshane, inokushwankathelwa: Guquka kwaye uguqulwe ngokugcina imiyalelo kaKristu, kwaye uya kuba nenkululeko, ukuhlaziyeka kunye novuyo eNkosini. Ilula ngolo hlobo... ayisoloko ilula, hayi, kodwa ilula.
ICawe ikho namhlanje ngokuchanekileyo ngenxa yokuba amandla ale Vangeli aye akhulula aza aguqula abona boni baqaqadekileyo kangangokuba babekulungele ukufa ngenxa yothando lwaLowo wabafelayo. Esi sizukulwana sidinga ukuva esi sigidimi sivakaliswa ngokutsha ngamandla oMoya oyiNgcwele!
Ayikuko ukuba iPentekoste iyekile ukuba yinyani kuyo yonke imbali yeCawe, kodwa zinkulu kakhulu iimfuno kunye neengozi zeli xesha langoku, lukhulu kakhulu ubume boluntu obutsalelekileyo ekuhlaleni kunye nokungabi namandla okukufezekisa, Akukho lusindiso lwayo ngaphandle kokuthululwa ngokutsha kwesipho sikaThixo. —IPOPA ST. UPAWULOS VI, UGaudete eDomino, ngoMeyi 9, 1975, iCandelo. VII
