Imibhalo yenkolo lapha

UJESU Kumelwe ukuba wamangala lapho, emi ethempelini, enza "umsebenzi kaYise", umama wakhe emtshela ukuthi sekuyisikhathi sokubuyela ekhaya. Ngokumangazayo, eminyakeni eyi-18 ezayo, esikwaziyo emaVangelini ukuthi kumele ukuthi uJesu wangena ekuzikhipheni yena uqobo, azi ukuthi Weza ukuzosindisa umhlaba… kepha hhayi okwamanje. Esikhundleni salokho, lapho, ekhaya, wangena "emsebenzini wesikhashana" owejwayelekile. Lapho, emikhawulweni yomphakathi omncane waseNazaretha, amathuluzi okubaza aba amasakramente amancane iNdodana kaNkulunkulu yafunda ngawo “ubuciko bokulalela.”

Izithelo zaleyo nkathi yempilo efihliwe kaKristu zazizinkulu. Akungabazeki ukuthi kwakunguMnumzane Wethu owadlulisela kuSt. Luke izithelo zokwethembeka kweNdodana yakhe:

Umntwana wakhula, waqina, wagcwala ukuhlakanipha; nomusa kaNkulunkulu wawuphezu kwakhe. (Luka 2:40)

Futhi ngokungangabazeki ukuthi amava kaJesu ngezibusiso zikaYise nokuthandwa Kwakhe kwaholela kulawo mazwi ahlala njalo eVangelini LangoMgqibelo:

Wenze kahle, nceku yami enhle nethembekile. Njengoba ubuthembekile ezintweni ezincane, ngizokunikeza imisebenzi emikhulu. Woza wabelane ngenjabulo yenkosi yakho.

Izwe namuhla, mhlawumbe ngaphezu kwanoma isiphi isizukulwane ngaphambi kwalo, lifuna ukuthola inkululeko nokugculiseka kwalo “ngokwenza okuthandwa yilo.” Kepha uJesu wembula ukuthi injabulo yomuntu ihlangene nentando kaNkulunkulu. Yilokhu okushiwo nguSt. Paul lapho ethi uJesu "wasenzela ukuhlakanipha okuvela kuNkulunkulu." ^[1]Ukufundwa kokuqala kwangoMgqibelo Impilo yonke kaKristu yaba yisibonelo kanye nephethini okufanele siyilandele kulokho: kungukulandela intando kaNkulunkulu, evezwe emiyalweni nasezibophezelweni zesimo sempilo yomuntu, lapho umuntu engena khona empilweni kaNkulunkulu, injabulo KaNkulunkulu.

Uma nigcina imiyalo yami, niyakuhlala othandweni lwami, njengalokho nami ngigcinile imiyalo kaBaba ngihlala othandweni lwakhe. Nginitshelile lokhu, ukuze intokozo yami ibe kini, nokuthokoza kwenu kuphelele. (Johane 15: 10-11)

Leli qiniso liyaphunyuka, ngiyavuma ukuthi, bridge kithi. Ngoba okulindelwe kuncane kakhulu, ngandlela thile. Emva kwakho konke, uJesu wathi, "Ijoka lami lilula nomthwalo wami ulula." ^[2]I-Matt 11: 30 Usicela ukuthi siphile umthetho wothando kukho konke esikwenzayo, singakunaki kodwa senze "izinto ezincane" ngothando lokunaka. Ngale ndlela, singena eZwini elikhulunywe ekuqaleni kwendalo elivele lembula inhloso yomuntu, leloZwi elasimisela ukuthi sikhanye futhi sijabule ngokwenza intando kaNkulunkulu… Kodwa ngalezo zindlela ezicishe zingabaluleki. Ngakho-ke, uPawulu uyabhala:

UNkulunkulu wakhetha ubuwula bomhlaba ukuze ajabhise abahlakaniphileyo, noNkulunkulu wakhetha ababuthakathaka bomhlaba ukuba ajabhise abanamandla… (kufundwa okokuqala ngoMgqibelo)

Yebo, umhlaba uthi kufanele ube yinto enhle, igama lakho lifakwe emithonjeni yezokuxhumana, i-YouTube ne-Facebook yakho "uthanda" ukukhuphuka ngosuku! Bese ungumuntu othile! Lapho-ke wenza umehluko! Kepha uJohn the Baptist usho okuthile okungaqondakali kulesi simo:

Kumele akhule; Kumele ngehle. (Johane 3:30)

Futhi nansi “imfihlo” yalokhu kuthembeka ezintweni ezincane, lokhu kufela kimi umzuzwana nomzuzwana, lokhu kuthobela imiyalo nemiyalo yeNkosi yethu: kuvula umphefumulo ushintsha impilo futhi uguqule amandla, kuKristu ohlala ngaphakathi. ^[3]isib. Joh 14:23

Umlayezo wesiphambano ungubuwula kulabo ababhubhayo, kodwa kithina esisindiswayo kungamandla kaNkulunkulu. (Ukufundwa kokuqala kwangoLwesihlanu)

Bafowethu nodadewethu, yilokhu okushiwo ukuba ngcwele, futhi sinjalo “Ubizelwe ukuba ngcwele.” ^[4]Ukufundwa kokuqala kwangoLwesine Ngokuphambene nalokho, uJesu wabasola abaFarisi ngoba benqaba ukuba nezinhliziyo ezincane nezivulekile, ukuthi bathembeke ezintweni ezincane eziholela kokukhulu futhi kwesinye isikhathi okudingeka kakhulu. Ukubaza kukaJesu kwamlungiselela ukuthi kamuva akhe iBandla; Ukugcinwa kwendlu kaMariya eNazaretha kwamholela ekubeni abe nguMama wendlu kaNkulunkulu… nokwethembeka kwakho kuNkulunkulu ezintweni ezincane kuzolungiselela futhi guqula wena wemithwalo yemfanelo emikhulu, okungukuthi, ukubamba iqhaza ekusindisweni kwemiphefumulo. Akunasibopho esikhulu ukwedlula lesi.

Ngakho-ke, kuwo wonke amaHubo nokufundwa kuleli sonto, sizwa ukuthi iNkosi ibabusisa kanjani labo abamesabayo; ukuthi uPawulu ukuncoma kanjani ukwethembeka kwabantwana bakhe bakamoya; indlela iNkosi yethu uqobo efuna ngayo labo "ababambelela ngokuqinile" ekulaleleni kwabo. Laba yibo abancane uJesu azobabeka ngenjabulo ukuthi baphathe indlu yakhe…

Ngubani-ke le nceku ethembekileyo neqondayo, inkosi eyibeke ukuba iphathe abendlu yayo ukuba ibabele ukudla kwabo ngesikhathi esifanele na? Ibusisiwe leyo nceku, okuyakuthi kufika inkosi yayo, iyifumane yenze njalo. Ngiqinisile ngithi kini, izombeka phezu kwayo yonke impahla yayo. (IVangeli LangoLwesine)
