Imibhalo yenkolo lapha
DO uzithola uthukuthela lapho uzwa izitatimende ezinjengokuthi “qeda izinto onazo” noma “ulahle umhlaba”, njll. Uma kunjalo, imvamisa kungenxa yokuthi sinombono osontekile wokuthi ubuKristu buyini — ukuthi inkolo yobuhlungu nokujeziswa.
Ngenkathi uNkulunkulu edala amazulu nomhlaba, wakubheka futhi Wabona ukuthi kuhle. ” [1]IGen 1: 25 Kepha kwesinye isikhathi, ubungcwele babangcwele bungashiya omunye umbono wokuthi noma yini edala umuzwa wenjabulo noma yenjabulo empeleni iyisilingo esisiholela kokuhle kakhulu, okungukuthi uNkulunkulu. Kepha uNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe wadala indawo yonke nakho konke okuqukethe ukuze kujatshulelwe futhi kuphathiswe umuntu. Ngakho-ke, ukushona kwelanga okuhle, isithelo somvini, isinkwa sokuvuna, ukumamatheka komunye, injabulo yothando lomshado… konke lokhu kuyizimpawu ezikhomba ebuhleni obukhulu: uNkulunkulu.
Futhi lokho is iphuzu. Isono sokuqala, futhi ngenxa yalokho ukulimala esikwenzile ebuntwini bethu, kuphazamise inhloso yokuqala yendalo: ukusiholela ebudlelwaneni obujulile noZiqu-zintathu Ongcwele. Ngokungazelelwe, ukushona kwelanga okuhle kuba ukufuna umhlaba; isithelo somvini siba yisifiso sewayini; isinkwa sokuvuna siba yisikhathi sokuminza; ukumamatheka komunye kuba yisifiso sokuphatha abanye; injabulo yothando lomshado iba inkanuko yobumnandi benkanuko, njalonjalo. Uyabona-ke ukuthi indalo muhle impela, kepha kunjalo Isono okuhlanekezela okuhle, ukukuguqula kube ngumthombo wosizi. Njengoba uJesu asho:
Wonke umuntu owenza isono uyisigqila sesono. (Johane 8:34)
UJesu uqobo waphefumula emoyeni wasentabeni, wangcwelisa amanzi, wangcwelisa isithelo somvini, futhi wathokozela izithelo zemisebenzi yabanye, ngisho nasetafuleni lezoni. Kodwa Wayeyindoda ekhululekile. Kukuleyo nkululeko kuphela lapho akushiya khona konke kwaba kuhle kakhulu: inkazimulo kuBaba — kanye nethuba lokuthi mina nawe angahlanganyela kuleyo nkazimulo. Ngakho-ke, kufanele sithi namuhla ngezinhliziyo zethu zonke:
Ngiyakubonga ukuthi ngenziwa ngokwesabekayo, ngokumangalisayo; iyamangalisa imisebenzi yakho. (Ihubo lanamuhla)
Kepha inhloso yale misebenzi ukusiholela enjabulweni nasenkululekweni engamadodakazi namadodana kaNkulunkulu, makabongwe uJesu Kristu uMsindisi wethu. Ngakho-ke, uSt. Paul uthi esifundweni sokuqala, "Uma ukudla kwenza umfowethu one, ngeke ngiphinde ngiyidle inyama, ukuze ngingamenzi umfowethu one." Ukudla akuyona inkinga; [2]Esibonelweni sikaPawulu, ukudla inyama enikelwe ezithombeni kwakuyimbangela yesono. ukuthambekela okweqile kokuyiguqula ibe isithixo.
Kungakho uJesu esifundisa eVangelini ukuthi singahluleli noma sigxeke abanye. Sonke siyizidalwa eziwile, okuthi noma sibhapathiziwe, sithwale ngempilo kaNkulunkulu etendeni lasemhlabeni elihamba lihudule lisidonsele emhlabeni. Sidinga ukubona ukuthi lesi sisindo, lesi silonda enhliziyweni yomuntu, sihlelekile — sidlula kulo lonke uhlanga lwesintu. Futhi-ke, sidinga ukusizana ukuze siphume esonweni sobugqila, futhi yebo, kaningi ngezindleko ezinkulu zomuntu siqu.
… Thanda izitha zakho, wenze okuhle kulabo abakuzondayo, ubusise labo abakuqalekisayo, thandazela labo abakuphatha kabi… Yiba nomusa, njengoba noYihlo enesihe. (IVangeli Lanamuhla)
Kufanele sizikhumbuze njalo ukuthi sonke senzelwe udumo, senzelwe ukuxhumana noNkulunkulu. Futhi kulelo zinga esivula ngalo izinhliziyo zethu kuye futhi senqabe lezi zinkanuko ezikhubazekile kanye nalezo zinto ezincane eziholela enkanukweni, yilelo banga uNkulunkulu angadlulisela ngalo uMbuso kithi. Yingakho ngithi ubuKrestu bunjalo hhayi inkolo yobuhlungu nokujeziswa, kodwa ukulungiselela—ukulungiselela ukuthola impilo kaNkulunkulu engapheli. Yebo, Ufuna ukufanisa futhi adlule ukuphana kwethu kuYe. Ngakho-ke, noma ngabe Insimu yase-Edene ivaliwe, kunokuthile okukhulu okusilindele. [3]"Lokho iso elingakubonanga, nendlebe engakuzwanga, nokungazange kungene enhliziyweni yomuntu, lokho uNkulunkulu akulungiselele labo abamthandayo." (1 Kor. 2:9)
Le mpilo nakho konke okuyizimpawu zesikhashana zobuhle kuyadlula. Manje zingamalungiselelo enkazimulo enkulu elindele labo abakhetha uMsindisi kunesono.
Nikeza futhi uphiwe izipho; isilinganiso esihle, esipakishwe ndawonye, esinyakazisisiwe, nesichichimayo, sizothelwa ethangeni lakho. Ngoba isilinganiso enilinganisa ngaso nani enizobuya ngaso nizolinganiselwa ngaso nani. (IVangeli Lanamuhla)
Ngibonga labo kini ababonile ukuthi le yinkonzo yesikhathi esigcwele engadingi imithandazo yenu kuphela, kepha nokuxhaswa ngokwezimali ukuze niqhubeke.
Inoveli enamandla, ejabulisayo ezohlala emicabangweni yakho isikhathi eside kakhulu…
