NgoLwesithathu Weviki Elingcwele

KOKUBILI UPeter noJudas bathola uMzimba neGazi likaKristu eSidlweni Sokugcina. UJesu wayazi ngaphambili ukuthi womabili amadoda ayezomphika. Womabili la madoda aqhubeka enza ngendlela ethile.

Kepha kungene umuntu oyedwa uSathane:

Emva kokuba ethathe ucezwana, uSathane wangena [kuJuda]. (Johane 13:27)

Ngakho-ke, eVangelini lanamuhla, uJesu uthi:

Maye kulowo muntu iNdodana yomuntu ekhashelwa ngaye!

Kunomehluko omkhulu phakathi kukaPeter noJudas. UPetru, ngenhliziyo yakhe yonke wayefuna ukuthanda iNkosi. “Ngizoya kubani,”Wake wathi kuJesu. Kepha esikhundleni sokuya eNkosini, uJudas walandela inyama yakhe, eshintsha uthando lukaKristu ngezinhlamvu zesiliva ezingamashumi amathathu. UPetru waphika uKristu ebuthakathakeni; UJuda wamkhaphela ngenxa yokuthanda.

Ngingubani? Lowo ngumbuzo okufanele ngamunye wethu awubuze ngaphambi kokuba samukele iSidlo esingcwele. Bangaki namuhla abemukela uMzimba neGazi likaKristu ngaphandle kokucabanga umzuzwana abamukelayo? Kubaluleke kangakanani lokhu? USt. Paul uyabhala:

Umuntu kufanele azihlole, ngakho-ke adle isinkwa aphuze nenkomishi. Ngoba noma ngubani odla futhi aphuze ngaphandle kokuqonda umzimba, uzidlela futhi aziphuzele ukwahlulela yena. (1 Kor 11: 28-19)

Waze waphawula ukuthi abaningi “bayagula futhi bakhubazekile, futhi baningi impela abafayo,” ngoba abamamukelanga kahle uJesu! Sidinga ukuhlaba ikhefu futhi sizindle ngokweqiniso ngokuthi besisondela kanjani kuMthendeleko, nokuthi sisesimweni somusa noma cha:

Noma ngubani ofisa ukwamukela uKristu esidlweni se-Ekaristi kufanele abe sesimweni somusa. Noma ngubani owaziyo ukuthi wone ngokufa akumele athole isidlo ngaphandle kokuthola ukuxolelwa esakramente lokuphenduka. -Ikhathekizimu leSonto LamaKatolika, hhayi. 1415

UJuda wakhaphela uKrestu ngemali. Kwakuyisono sokukhonza izithombe. Kuleli Sonto Elingcwele, kudingeka sihlole izinhliziyo zethu futhi sivume noma isiphi isono esibi ukuze singahlali ebumnyameni bethuna, kodwa sivuke noKristu.

Aninakuphuza indebe yeNkosi niphinde niphuza indebe yamademoni. Aninakudla etafuleni leNkosi kanye nasetafuleni lamademoni. (1 Kor. 10:22)

Ngakolunye uhlangothi, yazi ukuthi uJesu ukumemela etafuleni lesihe ngqo ngoba lobuthakathaka bakho. Ukuthi izono zakho zansuku zonke namaphutha akho kungaze kukugcine kude ne-altare, kepha kukuholele ekuthobekeni nasekulahlweni okukhulu phambi kwe IWundlu likaNkulunkulu elisusa izono zomhlaba. NjengoPeter owakhala kathathu, “Nkosi, uyazi ukuthi ngiyakuthanda!” Futhi singangeza, “…kodwa ngibuthakathaka kakhulu. Ngihawukele. ”

Umphefumulo othobekile nozisolayo kanjalo uJesu akaze ajike, kepha uyondla, ondle, futhi aqinise ngomzimba wakhe kanye negazi lakhe. Uyena, hhayi uSathane, ongena enhliziyweni.

INkosi uNkulunkulu ingusizo lwami, ngakho-ke angiphoxi ... Bheka, iNkosi uJehova ingusizo lwami… (Ukufundwa kokuqala)

Ngizodumisa igama likaNkulunkulu ngengoma, futhi ngizomdumisa ngokubonga: “Bhekani nina bantu abaphansi, nijabule; nina enifuna uNkulunkulu, kwangathi izinhliziyo zenu zingavuka! Ngoba uJehova uyabezwa abampofu, futhi akabanaki abakhe abasezibophweni. (IHubo)
