 Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, Isimo SikaNkulunkulu, NoNkulunkulu Uqobo Lwakhe III IVANGELI LOKUFIKA KOMBUSOLokhu kuhlanganyela okwahlukahlukene kube nomthelela kuwo wonke umuntu ngamunye. Njengamanje, abantu sebengakwazi ngempela ekugcineni ukuzwa ubukhona bukaNkulunkulu ngokweqiniso nokuthi empeleni uNkulunkulu usondelene kakhulu nabo. Nakuba abantu bekholwe kuNkulunkulu iminyaka eminingi, abakaze bayiqonde ngokwempela imicabango kanye nemiqondo Yakhe njengoba benza manje, noma bazizwe ngokweqiniso izenzo Zakhe ezibonakalayo njengoba kwenzeka manje. Noma ngabe ukuhlakanipha noma ukwenza okubonakalayo, abantu abaningi sebefunde into entsha futhi bazuza nokuqonda okukhulu, futhi balibonile iphutha ekufuneni kwabo okwedlule, babona ukukha phezulu kwalokho abadlule kukho nokuthi okuningi akuhambisani nentando kaNkulunkulu, babona nokuthi into umuntu ayiswele kakhulu ulwazi ngesimo sikaNkulunkulu. Lolu lwazi ngasengxenyeni yabantu luwuhlobo lolwazi lokwemizwa; ukwenyukela ezingeni lolwazi olunengqondo kubiza ukujula kancane kancane kanye nokuqiniswa ngalokho abadlula kukho. Ngaphambi kokuba umuntu aqonde uNkulunkulu ngokweqiniso, ngokwabo kungashiwo ukuthi bayakholelwa ebukhoneni bukaNkulunkulu ezinhliziyweni zabo, kodwa abanakho ukuqonda kweqiniso ngemibuzo enjengokuthi Yena empeleni uluhlobo luni lukaNkulunkulu, iyini intando Yakhe, siyini isimo Sakhe, nokuthi ingabe usibheka kanjani ngempela isintu. Lokhu kwehlisa kakhulu ukukholwa kwabantu kuNkulunkuluukukholwa kwabo akufinyeleli impela ekubeni msulwa noma ekuphelelisweni. Noma ngabe ubhekene nezwi likaNkulunkulu ubuso nobuso, noma uzwa ukuthi wazane noNkulunkulu ngodlule kukho, kuselokhu kungeke kushiwo namanje ukuthi usuyamqonda ngokugcwele. Ngoba awuyazi imicabango kaNkulunkulu, noma ukuthi uthandani futhi uzondani, yini emthukuthelisayo futhi yini emjabulisayo, awunakho ukumqonda ngokweqiniso. Ukukholwa kwakho kumi esisekelweni esingenaso isiqiniseko kanye nasemicabangweni, kuncike ezifisweni zakho zokuzicabangela. Kusekude kakhulu nenkolo yangempela, futhi usekude kakhulu nokuba ngumlandeli weqiniso. Izincazelo zalezi zibonelo ezisezindabeni zeBhayibheli zivumele abantu ukuba bazi inhliziyo kaNkulunkulu, ukuthi wayecabangani kuso sonke isinyathelo somsebenzi Wakhe ngasinye nokuthi kungani enza lo msebenzi, kwabe kuyini inhloso Yakhe yasekuqaleni kanye nohlelo Lwakhe ngesikhathi ewenza, wawafeza kanjani amasu Akhe, nokuthi walihlelela kanjani futhi walikhulisa kanjani icebo Lakhe. Ngalezi zindaba, singazuza ukuqonda okunemininingwane futhi okuqonde ngqo mayelana nayo yonke inhloso kaNkulunkulu kanye nomcabango okuyiwona wona ngesikhathi seminyaka eyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha somsebenzi Wakhe wokuphatha, kanye nendlela Yakhe abuka ngayo abantu ngezikhathi ezahlukene nangezinkathi ezahlukene. Ukuqonda ukuthi uNkulunkulu wayecabangani, sabe sinjani isimo sengqondo Yakhe, kanye nesimo ayesiveza lapho ebhekana nezimo zonke, kungasiza wonke umuntu ukuthi abone ngokujulile ubukhona Bakhe beqiniso, futhi ngokujulile kakhulu ezwe ubukhona kanye nobuqotho Bakhe.

Ngale ndlela, izinhliziyo zabantu zingavuleleka kuNkulunkulu kancane kancane, zisondele kuNkulunkulu, futhi zingamqonda kangcono, isimo Sakhe, ingqikithi Yakhe, futhi bazi kangcono uNkulunkulu weqiniso uqobo Lwakhe.Namuhla sizobheka ngokufingqiwe imicabango, imibono, kanye nakho konke ukusebenza kukaNkulunkulu kusukela ekudaleni abantu, nokuthi sibheke ukuthi imuphi umsebenzi awenza kusukela ekudalweni kwezwe kuze kufike ekuqaleni kweNkathi Yomusa ngokusemthethweni. Ngakho sizokwazi ukuthola ukuthi imiphi imicabango kanye nemibono kaNkulunkulu engaziwa muntu, kusukela lapho-ke sesingachaza ukuhleleka kwecebo likaNkulunkulu lokuphatha, futhi siqonde ngokuphelele isimo uNkulunkulu adalela kuso umsebenzi Wakhe wokuphatha, umsuka wawo kanye nendlela yokuwuthuthukisa, futhi siqonde ngokuphelele ukuthi imiphi imiphumela ayifunayo emsebenzi Wakhe wokuphathaokusho, umnyombo kanye nenhloso yomsebenzi Wakhe wokuphatha. Ukuze siqonde lezi zinto kumele sibuyele emuva, esikhathini esikude futhi esithule lapho kwakungekho bantu ...Ngesikhathi uNkulunkulu evuka embhedeni Wakhe, umcabango aba nawo kuqala kwakuyilo: ukudala umuntu ophilayo, umuntu ophilayo wangempelaumuntu ozophila Naye futhi abe umhlobo Wakhe njalo. Lo muntu owayezokwazi ukumlalela, futhi uNkulunkulu wayezokwazi ukukhipha isifuba Sakhe kuyena futhi akhulume naye. Kwase kuthi, ngokokuqala ngqa, uNkulunkulu wathatha umhlabathi ogcwele isandla, futhi wawusebenzisa ukudala umuntu wokuqala ngqa ophilayo ayekade emcabanga, wabe esenika lesi sidalwa esiphilayo igamaAdamu. Lapho uNkulunkulu esezuze lo muntu ophilayo futhi ophefumulayo, ingabe Wazizwa kanjani? Ngokokuqala ngqa, wazizwela injabulo yokuba nothandekayo, umhlobo. Ngokokuqala ngqa, waphinde wazizwela umthwalo wokuba ubaba, kanye nokukhathazeka okufika nakho. Lo muntu ophilayo futhi ophefumulayo walethela uNkulunkulu intokozo kanye nenjabulo; wazizwela eduduzekile ngokokuqala ngqa. Lokhu kwakuyinto yokuqala uNkulunkulu ayeyenzile ayengayenzanga ngemicabango noma nangamazwi Akhe, kodwa kwenziwa ngezandla Zakhe zombili. Ngesikhathi lolu hlobo lwesidalwaumuntu ophilayo futhi ophefumulayosima phambi kukaNkulunkulu, senziwe ngenyama negazi, sinomzimba futhi nesimo, futhi sikwazi ukukhuluma noNkulunkulu, Wazizwela uhlobo lwenjabulo ayengakaze aluzwe ngaphambili. Wazizwela ngempela umthwalo futhi lomphefumulo ophilayo akusikho nje ukuthi wawumenza azizwe enozwelo enhliziyweni Yakhe, kodwa konke ngisho nokuncinyane okwakukwenza nakho kwamthinta futhi kwafudumeza inhliziyo Yakhe. Ngakho ngesikhathi lo mphefumulo ophilayo uma phambi kukaNkulunkulu, kwakungokokuqaka efikelwa umcabango wokuba nabantu abaningi abazofana nalo. Lokhu kwakuwuchungechunge lwezehlakalo ezaqala ngomcabango wokuqala uNkulunkulu abe nawo, zonke lezi zehlakalo zazenzeke ngokokuqala, kodwa ngalezi zehlakalo, nanoma ngabe yini lena abe eyizwa ngaleso sikhathiinjabulo, umthwalo, ukukhathalelakwakungekho muntu ayengakhuluma naye ngalokhu. Kusukela ngalowo mzuzu, uNkulunkulu waba nomzwangedwa ngempela kanye nosizi ayengakaze aluzwe ngaphambili. Yena wezwa ukuthi abantu babengakwazi ukwamukela noma ukuqonda uthando kanye nokukhathalela Kwakhe, noma izinjongo Zakhe ngesintu, ngalokho Yena waba nokudabuka kanye nobuhlungu enhliziyweni Yakhe. Noma ngabe umuntu wayemenzele le nto, umuntu wayengazi ngayo futhi engaqondi. Ngaphandle nje kwentokozo, ukujabula kanye nenduduzo eyalethwa umuntu Kuye, masinyane yaletha futhi imizwa Yakhe yokuqala yosizi kanye nomzwangedwa. Lena kwakuyimicabango kanye nemizwa kaNkulunkulu ngezikhathi zonke. Ngesikhathi uNkulunkulu ekwenza konke lokhu, enhliziyweni Yakhe wasuka enjabulweni waya osizini, waphinda wasuka osizini waya ezinhlungwini, konke kuxubene nokukhathazeka. Konke ayefuna ukukwenza kwakungukushesha ukuba enze lo muntu, lolu hlanga lwesintu ukuba lwazi ukuthi kwakukhonani enhliziyweni Yakhe futhi luqonde izinjongo Zakhe ngokushesha. Ngalokho, babengakwazi ukuphenduka abalandeli Bakhe futhi babe nhliziyonye Naye. Babengeke besalalele uNkulunkulu ekhuluma kodwa bahlale bengenamazwi; babengeke besahlale bengazi ukuthi bangahlanganyela kanjani noNkulunkulu emsebenzini Wakhe; ngaphezu kwakho konke, babengeke besaba ngabantu abangenandaba nokuthi ziyini izidingo zikaNkulunkulu. Lezi zinto zokuqala uNkulunkulu aziqeda zinenjongo enkulu futhi zibaluleke kakhulu ecebeni Lakhe lokuphatha nakubantu namuhla.Emva kokuhlanganyela ngakho konke lokhu, ingabe niyiqonda ngeqiniso intando kaNkulunkulu? UNkulunkulu ubona lesi sibonelo sokuphatha isintu, sokusindisa abantu, sibaluleke kakhulu kunanoma yini enye. Akakwenzi konke lokhu ngomqondo Wakhe kuphela, noma ngamazwi Akhe kuphela, futhi Yena ikakhulukazi akakwenzi ngokunganakiukwenza konke lokhu ngokohlelo, ngenjongo, ngezinga, kanye nentando Yakhe. Kuyacaca ukuthi lo msebenzi wokusindisa isintu ubaluleke kakhulu kuNkulunkulu nakumuntu. Noma ngabe unzima kanjani umsebenzi, nanoma ngabe zizinkulu kangakanani iziphazamiso, noma ngabe babuthakathaka kanjani abantu, noma ngabe kujule kangakanani ukuhlubuka kwesintu, akukho kulokhu okunzima kuNkulunkulu. UNkulunkulu uzenza matasatasa, efaka amandla Akhe acophelelayo futhi ephatha umsebenzi afuna ukuwenza Yena uqobo Lwakhe. Futhi Yena uhlela konke, futhi ebusa abantu bonke kanye nomsebenzi afuna ukuwuqedaakukho okwalokhu okwake kwenziwa ngaphambili. Kungokokuqala uNkulunkulu asebenzisa lezi zindlela futhi akhokha nenani elikhulu ngalo msebenzi omkhulu wokuphatha nokusindisa isintu. Ngesikhathi uNkulunkulu esenza lo msebenzi, kancane kancane uyaveza kubantu ngaphandle kokugodla umsebenzi Wakhe onzima, lokhu anakho nayikho, ukuhlakanipha kanye namandla Akhe, nayo yonke ingxenye yesimo Sakhe.

Ngakho-ke, emhlabeni wonke, ngaphandle kwabantu uNkulunkulu aqonde ukubaphatha nokubasindisa, ayikaze ibe khona noma iyiphi indalo esondelene noNkulunkulu, enobudlelwano obusondelene Naye ngalo luhlobo. Enhliziyweni Yakhe, isintu afuna ukusiphatha nokusisindisa sibalulekile kakhulu, futhi siyigugu Kuye ngaphezu kwakho konke; noma ngabe ekhokhe inani elikhulu ngabo, futhi nanoma ngabe bemzwisa ubuhlungu futhi bengalaleli, Yena akabadeli futhi uqhubeka ngokungakhathali emsebenzini Wakhe, engenakukhononda futhi engazisoli. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi uyazi ukuthi masinyane noma kungekudala, isintu ngelinye ilanga siyovumela ubizo Lwakhe, futhi sinyakaziswe amazwi Akhe, sibone ukuthi Yena uyiNkosi yendalo, bese sibuyela ngasohlangothini Lwakhe...Emva kokuzwa konke lokhu namhlanje, ningezwa sengathi konke uNkulunkulu akwenzayo kujwayelekile. Kusengathi abantu bebelokhu beyizwa intando kaNkulunkulu ngabo emazwini Akhe kanye nasemsebenzini Wakhe, kodwa kuhlala njalo kuyibanga elithile phakathi kwemizwa yabo noma ulwazi lwabo kanye nalokhu uNkulunkulu akucabangayo. Ngakho-ke, ngicabanga ukuthi kubalulekile ukukhuluma nabantu bonke ngokuthi kungani uNkulunkulu wadala uhlanga lwesintu, kanye nesendlalelo mayelana nesifiso Sakhe sokuzuza abantu Yena abenethemba ngabo.

Math 12:1 Ngaleso sikhathi uJesu wahamba phakathi kwamasimu ommbila ngesabatha; futhi abafundi bakhe babelambile, base beqala ukukha izikhwebu ukuze badle.2 Math 12:6-8 Kepha ngithi kini, Lapha kukhona omkhulu kunethempeli. Kepha ukuba benazi ukuthi lokhu kusho ukuthini, ngizoba nesihawu, futhi hhayi umhlatshelo, ngabe ningabalahlanga laba abangenacala. Ngokuba iNdodana yomuntu iyiNkosi ngisho yosuku lwesabatha.Kungani sikhethe lesi siqephu? Sihlangana kanjani nesimo sikaNkulunkulu? Kulo mbhalo, okokuqala esikwaziyo ukuthi kwakulusuku lweSabatha, kodwa iNkosi uJesu waphumela ngaphandle futhi waholela abafundi Bakhe emasimini. Okukhulu kakhulu okucasulayo ukuthi baze baqala ukukha izikhwebu ukuze badle. NgeNkathi Yomthetho, imithetho kaJehova uNkulunkulu yayithi abantu akumele nje baphume phandle noma bazibandakanye nezinto ezenziwa ngeSabathazaziziningi izinto okwakungamele ukuba zenziwe ngeSabatha. Lesi senzo seNkosi uJesu sasidida kulabo ababephile ngaphansi komthetho isikhathi eside, futhi savusa ukugxekwa. Mayelana nokudideka kwabo kanye nange ndlela abakhuluma ngayo ngalokhu uJesu akwenzile, sizokubuyisela eceleni okwamanje bese siqala ngokugxila ekutheni kungani wakhetha ukukwenza ngeSabatha, phakathi kwazo zonke izinsuku, nanokuthi yini lena ayefuna ukuyikhuluma kubantu ababehlala phansi komthetho ngalesi senzo. Lokhu ukuxhumana phakathi kwalesi siqephu kanye nesimo sikaNkulunkulu engifuna ukukhuluma ngaso.Ngesikhathi ifika iNkosi uJesu, yasebenzisa izenzo ezibonakalayo ukuze ikhulume nabantu: UNkulunkulu wayesesukile eNkathini Yomthetho futhi eseqale umsebenzi omusha, kanti lo msebenzi omusha wawungadingi ukugcinwa kweSabatha; ngesikhathi uNkulunkulu ephuma emikhawulweni yosuku lweSabatha, lokhu kwakungamazwibela omsebenzi Wakhe omusha, futhi umsebenzi Wakhe omkhulu weqiniso wawuqhubeka ukubonakaliswa obala. Ngesikhathi iNkosi uJesu iqala umsebenzi Wayo, yayisishiye ngemuva izintambo zeNkathi Yomthetho, futhi yayisidlubulundele emigomeni nezimiso zangaleyo nkathi. Kuyena, kwakungekho nokuncane oluhambisana nomthetho; Wayesewulahla ngokuphelele futhi engasawugcini, futhi wayengasadingi ukuba isintu siwugcine. Ngakho lapha uyabona ukuthi iNkosi uJesu yadabula emasimini ngeSabatha; iNkosi ayiphumulanga, kodwa yayingaphandle isebenza. Lesi senzo Sakhe sethusa indlela abantu ababecabanga ngayo futhi Wabatshela ukuthi Yena akasaphili ngaphansi komthetho, nanokuthi useyishiyile imikhawulo yeSabatha wabe esevela phambi kwesintu futhi phakathi kwabo ngomfanekiso omusha, nange ndlela entsha yokusebenza. Lesi senzo Sakhe satshengisa abantu ukuthi Yena ufike nomsebenzi omusha owaqala ngokuthi uphume emthethweni futhi uphume naseSabatheni. Ngesikhathi uNkulunkulu enza umsebenzi Wakhe omusha, akabuyanga esanamathela kokudala, futhi wayengasakhathazekile ngezinqubo zeNkathi Yomthetho. Futhi wayengaphazamiswa umsebenzi Wakhe wangenkathi engaphambilini, kodwa Wasebenza ngokujwayelekile ngeSabatha futhi ngesikhathi abafundi Bakhe sebelambile, bakha izikhwebu badla. Konke lokhu kwakujwayelekile emehlweni kaNkulunkulu. UNkulunkulu wayengaba nesiqalo esisha somsebenzi Wakhe omningi afuna ukuwenza kanye nezinto afuna ukuzisho.

Lena enye yezinjongo Zakhe emsebenzini Wakhe omusha. UNkulunkulu akabambeleli kokudala noma athathe indlela eyaziwayo; uma Yena esebenza futhi ekhuluma, akukho nzima ngale ndlela abantu abacabanga ngayo. KuNkulunkulu, konke kumahhala futhi kukhululiwe, futhi akukho ukuthikanyezwa, akukho izithiyolokhu akuletha esintwini inkululeko nokukhululwa kodwa. UnguNkulunkulu ophilayo, uNkulunkulu okhona ngobuqotho nangeqiniso. Yena akasiwo unodoli noma isithombe sobumba, futhi uhluke kakhulu ezithixweni abantu abazingcwelisayo futhi bazidumise. Yena uyaphila futhi unomdlandla, futhi lokho okulethwa amazwi nomsebenzi Wakhe kubantu kungukuphila kanye nokukhanya kuphela, inkululeko nokukhululwa kuphela, ngokuba uphethe iqiniso, ukuphila, kanye nendlelaAkakhinyabezwa yilutho kunoma imuphi umsebenzi Wakhe. Noma ngabe abantu bathini futhi noma ngabe babona kanjani noma bawuhlola kanjani umsebenzi Wakhe omusha, Uzoqhubeka nomsebenzi Wakhe ngaphandle kokungabaza. Akakhathazeki ngemicabanga yanoma ubani noma ngeminwe ekhomba ngokusola emsebenzini nasemazwini Akhe, ngisho noma ukumelana nokuphikisana kwabo Naye okunamandla, emsebenzini Wakhe omusha. Akukho noyedwa phakathi kwendalo ongasebenzisa ukucabanga komuntu, noma ukubona ngamehlo engqondo komuntu, ulwazi, noma ubuqotho bomuntu ukukala noma ukuchaza lokhu okwenziwa uNkulunkulu, ukujivaza noma ukuketula umsebenzi Wakhe. Akukho ukuthikanyezwa emsebenzini Wakhe futhi ngeke wavinjwa yinoma imuphi umuntu, into, noma okuthile, futhi ngeke aphazanyiswa imimoya yobutha. Emsebenzini Wakhe omusha, uhlala njalo eyiNkosi enqobayo, kanti noma iyiphi imimoya yobutha kanye nawo wonke amahlubuka kanye nabakhohlisi esintwini, bonke bacindezelekile ngaphansi kwezinyawo Zakhe. Nanoma ngabe umsebenzi Wakhe awenzayo ukusiphi isigaba esisha, kumele uthuthukiswe futhi ukhuliswe phakathi kwesintu, futhi kumele wenziwe ngaphandle kwezithikamezo emhlabeni wonke, kuze kube sekuphelelisweni komsebenzi Wakhe omkhulu. Lona uNkulunkulu onamandla onke nokuhlakanipha, kanye negunya namandla. Ngakho, iNkosi uJesu yayingaphumela phandle ngokusobala futhi isebenze ngosuku lweSabatha ngokuba enhliziyweni Yayo yayingekho imigomo, futhi lwalungekho ulwazi noma isifundiso esavela esintwini. Lokhu ayenakho kwakungumsebenzi kaNkulunkulu omusha kanye nendlela Yakhe, futhi umsebenzi Wakhe wawuyindlela yokukhulula abantu, ukubadedela, ukubavumela ukuba babekhona ekukhanyeni, nokubavumela ukuba baphile. Kanti labo abakhonza izithixo noma onkulunkulu bamanga baphila nsuku zonke beboshiwe uSathane, bebanjwe yilo lonke uhlobo lwemigomo namahlazonamhlanje into eyodwa ayivumelekile, kusasa enyeayikho inkululeko ezimpilweni zabo. Bafana neziboshwa zifakwe ozankosi, ayisaphathwa eyenjabulo. Ingabe ukuthiywa kumele ini? Kumele izingqinamba, izibopho, kanye nobubi. Ngesikhathi umuntu eseqala ukukhonza izithixo, bakhonza unkulunkulu wamanga, bakhonza umoya omubi. Izithiyo ziza kanye nalokhu. Angeke udle lokhu nalokhuya, namhlanje awukwazi ukuphuma phandle, kusasa awukwazi ukulayitha isitofu, ngosuku olulandelayo awukwazi ukungena endlini entsha, kumele kukhethwe izinsuku ezithile zemishado nemingcwabo, kubandakanya nokuzalwa kwabantwana. Kubizwa ngokuthini lokhu? Lokhu kubizwa ngokuthi yisithiyo; kungukuboshwa kwesintu, izintambo zikaSathane kanye nemimoya emibi ebalawulayo, ebamba izinhliziyo kanye nemizimba yabo. Ingabe lezi zithiyo zikhona kuNkulunkulu? Uma ukhuluma ngobungcwele bukaNkulunkulu, kumele ucabange lokhu kuqala: KuNkulunkulu azikho izivimbelo. UNkulunkulu unezimiso emazwini nasemsebenzini Wakhe, kodwa azikho izithiyo, ngokuba uNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe uyiqiniso, indlela, nokuphila.Manje ake sibheke kulesi siqephu esilandelayo, Kepha ngithi kini, Lapha kukhona omkhulu kunethempeli. Kepha ukuba benazi ukuthi lokhu kusho ukuthini, ngizoba nesihawu, futhi hhayi umhlatshelo, ngabe ningabalahlanga laba abangenacala. Ngokuba iNdodana yomuntu iyiNkosi ngisho yosuku lwesabatha Math 12:6-8. Ingabe ithempeli lichazani la? Ukukubeka ngendlela elula, ithempeli isakhiwo esimangalisayo, eside, futhi eNkathini Yomthetho, ithempeli kwakuyindawo yabapristi yokukhonza uNkulunkulu. Ngesikhathi iNkosi uJesu ithi lapha kukhona omkhulu kunethempeli, ingabe kwakumele bani ukuthi kukhona? Ngokucacile, ukuthi kukhona kumele iNkosi uJesu enyameni, ngoba uYena kuphela owabe emkhulu kunethempeli. Lawo mazwi ayebatshelani abantu? Ayetshela abantu ukuba baphume ethempeliniuNkulunkulu wayesephumile futhi engasasebenzi kulo, ngakho kumele abantu bafune izinyathelo zikaNkulunkulu ngaphandle kwethempeli bese belandela izinyathelo Zakhe emsebenzini Wakhe omusha. Isendlalelo seNkosi uJesu lapho isho lokhu, ukuthi ngaphansi komthetho, abantu kwasekufike lapho babebona ithempeli njengento enkulu kunoNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe. Okungukuthi, abantu babekhonza ithempeli ngaphezu kukaNkulunkulu, ngakho iNkosi uJesu yabexwayisa ngokuthi akumele bakhonze izithixo, kodwa kufanele bakhonze uNkulunkulu ngokuba Yena uphakeme kunakho konke. Yingakho, Yena wathi: ngizoba nesihawu, futhi hhayi umhlatshelo. Kusobala ukuthi emehlweni eNkosi uJesu, abantu abaningi ngaphansi komthetho abasamkhonzi uJehova, kodwa babenza inqubo yomhlatshelo, futhi iNkosi uJesu yanquma ukuthi le nqubo yayi wukukhonza izithixo. Laba bakhonzi bezithixo babebona ithempeli kuyinto enkulu, futhi ephakeme kunoNkulunkulu. Ezinhliziyweni zabo kwakukhona ithempeli kuphela, hhayi uNkulunkulu, futhi uma belahlekelwe ithempeli, balahlekelwe indawo yokuhlala. Ngaphandle kwethempeli babengenayo indawo yokukhonza futhi bengakwazi nokwenza imihlatshelo yabo. Le ndawo yabo ebizwa ngokuthi indawo yokuhlala lapho abasebenzela khona egameni lokuthi bakhazimulisa uJehova uNkulunkulu, yayibavumela ukuba bahlale ethempelini kodwa bezenzela izinto zabo. Nalokhu okubizwa ngokuthi ukwenza imihlatshelo kwabo, kwakuwukwenza izinto zabo zehlazo ngaphansi kwesisithezo sokwenza inkonzo yabo ethempelini. Lesi kwakuyisizathu sokuba abantu ngaleso sikhathi babone ithempeli lilikhulu kunoNkulunkulu. Ngokuba babesebenzisa ithempeli njengesimbozo, nomhlatshelo njengesi sithezo sokukhohlisa abantu kanye nokukhohlisa uNkulunkulu, iNkosi uJesu yakusho lokhu ukwexwayisa abantu. Uma nisebenzisa la mazwi esikhathini samanje, avumelekile ngokulingana futhi afanelekile ngokulingana. Noma-ke abantu namhlanje sebebone imisebenzi eyahlukene kaNkulunkulu kuneyabonwa abantu beNkathi Yomthetho, isimo semvelo yabo siyafana. Engqikithini yomsebenzi wanamuhla, abantu bayoqhubeka nokwenza izinto ezifanayo nalezi ngoba ithempeli likhulu kunoNkulunkulu. Isibonelo, abantu babona ukufeza izimfanelo zabo njengomsebenzi wabo; babona ukufakazela uNkulunkulu nokulwa nodrako obomvu njengenhlangano yezepolitiki ivikela amalungelo abantu, intando yeningi kanye nenkululeko; baphendula izimfanelo zabo ukuze basebenzise amakhono abo abe njengemisebenzi yabo, kodwa ukwesaba uNkulunkulu noma ukuyeka okubi bakwenza ize, kodwa bakwenza ingxenyana yesifundiso senkolo okumele sigcinwe; kanye nokunye. Lokhu abantu abakuvezayo akuve kungokufanayo njengalokhu ithempeli likhulu kunoNkulunkulu? Ngaphandle ngokuthi eminyakeni eyizinkulungwane ezimbili eyedlule, abantu babenza izinto eziqondene nabo ethempelini eliphathekayo, kodwa namhlanje, abantu benza imisebenzi yabo ethempelini elingaphatheki. Labo bantu abayithatha njengegugu imigomo, babona imigomo imikhulu kunoNkulunkulu, labo bantu abathanda ukugqama babona ukugqama kukukhulu kunoNkulunkulu, labo abathanda imisebenzi yabo bayibona imikhulu ngaphezu kukaNkulunkulu, njalo njalokonke lokhu abakuvezayo Mina kungiholela ekutheni ngithi: Abantu badumisa uNkulunkulu njengomkhulu kakhulu ngamazwi abo, kodwa ngokwamehlo abo konke kukhulu kunoNkulunkulu. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi abantu bazitholela amathuba abo endleleni yabo yokulandela uNkulunkulu ukuveza amakhono abo, noma ukwenza amabhizinisi abo noma imisebenzi yabo yokuziphilisa, bayaziqhelelanisa noNkulunkulu bese bezinikela emisebenzini yokuziphilisa abayithandayo. Kepha lokhu uNkulunkulu abanike khona ngokubathembe, nentando Yakhe, lezo zinto kade zalahlwa. Kulesi sithombe, yini ehlukile ngalaba bantu kunalabo abazenzela imisebenzi yabo ethempelini eminyakeni eyizinkulungwane ezimbili eyedlule?Okulandelayo, ake sibheke umusho wokugcina kulesi siqephu sombhalo: Ngokuba iNdodana yomuntu iyiNkosi ngisho yosuku lwesabatha. Ingabe lukhona yini uhlangothi olubonakalayo kulo musho? Yonke into uNkulunkulu ayishoyo ivela enhliziyweni Yakhe, ngakho kungani washo lokhu? Uyiqonda kanjani le nto? Usungayiqonda incazelo yalo musho manje, kodwa ngalesa sikhathi abantu abaningi abaqondanga ngenxa yokuthi isintu sasisanda kuphuma eNkathini Yomthetho. Kubona, ukuphuma eSabatheni kwakuyinto enzima kakhulu ukuyenza, angisakhulumi ngokuqonda ukuthi liyini iSabatha leqiniso.Umusho othi iNdodana yomuntu iyiNkosi ngisho yosuku lwesabatha. utshela abantu ukuthi zonke izinto zikaNkulunkulu aziphatheki, futhi-ke noma uNkulunkulu angafeza izidingo zakho eziphathekayo, emva kokuba zonke izidingo zakho eziphathekayo sezifeziwe, ukwaneliseka kwakho ngalezi zinto kungayithatha yini indawo yokufuna iqiniso? Lokhu ngokucacileyo akunakwenzeka! Isimo sikaNkulunkulu kanye nalokhu ayikho nayikho esesixoxe ngakho, kokubili kuyiqiniso. Ngeke kwalinganiswa nenani elisindayo lezinto eziphathekayo noma isigqi sakho sikalwe ngemali, ngoba akusiyona into ephathekayo, futhi kufeza izidingo zenhliziyo yomuntu ngamunye. Kuwona wonke umuntu, inani leqiniso elingaphatheki kumele libe likhulu kunenani lanoma yiziphi izinto ocabanga ukuthi zinhle, zilungile. La mazwi ayinto okumele nihlale kuyo. Iphuzu elisemqoka kulokhu engikushilo ukuthi ilokhu uNkulunkulu anakho nayikho kanye nakho konke OkukaNkulunkulu kuyizinto ezibaluleke kakhulu kuwona wonke umuntu futhi azikwazi ukumelwa yinoma iyiphi into ephathekayo. Ngizokunika isibonelo: Uma ulambile, udinga ukudla. Lokhu kudla kungaba nempilo noma kube kweswele impilo, kodwa inqobo nje uma usuthile, lowo muzwa ongemnandi wokulamba angeke usaba khonausuhambile. Ungahlala lapho ngokuthula, nomzimba wakho uyophumula. Ukulamba kwabantu kungaxazululeka ngokudla, kodwa uma ulandela uNkulunkulu futhi uzwa ukuthi awunakho ukumqonda, ungakuxazulula kanjani ukulamba enhliziyweni yakho? Kungaxazululeka ngokudla na? Noma uma ulandela uNkulunkulu futhi ungayiqondi intando Yakhe, ungasebenzisani Naye ukuze uvale lokhu kulamba enhliziyweni yakho? Ekuqhubekeni kohambo lwakho lwensindiso noNkulunkulu, ngesikhathi ufuna uguquko esimweni sakho, uma ungayiqondi intando Yakhe noma ungazi ukuthi liyini iqiniso, uma ungasiqondi isimo sikaNkulunkulu, akukwenzi yini uzizwe ungakhululekile? Awuzizwa yini usulambile futhi womile kakhulu enhliziyweni yakho? Akwenzeki yini ukuthi le mizwa ikuvimbele ekutheni uzwe ukuthula enhliziyweni yakho? Ngalokho, yini ongayenza ukuvala lokhu kulamba okusenhliziyweni yakhoingabe ikhona indlela yokukuxazulula? Abanye abantu baya ezitolo, abanye bathola abangani babo ukuba bavule isifuba sabo kubo, balala besuthi, abanye bafunda kakhulu amazwi kaNkulunkulu, noma basebenze kanzima futhi bazikhandla ukugcwalisa izimfanelo zabo. Ingabe lezi zinto zingaxazulula izingqinamba zakho zangempela? Nonke niziqonda ngokugcwele izinhlobo zale mikhuba. Uma uzizwa ungenamandla, uma uzwa ukulangazelela okunamandla kokuba uzuze ukukhanyiselwa nguNkulunkulu ukuba akuvumele ukuba wazi iqiniso uqobo kanye nentando Yakhe, ingabe yini oyidinga kakhulu? Okudingayo akusikhona ukudla okugcwele, futhi akusiwo amazwi ambalwa. Ngaphezu kwalokho, akusikho ukunethezeka okwadlulayo kanye nokwaneliseka kwenyamaokudingayo ukuthi uNkulunkulu akutshele wena ngqo, ngokucacile ukuthi kumele wenzeni futhi ukwenze kanjani, futhi akutshele ngokucacile ukuthi liyini iqiniso. Emva kokuqonda lokhu, nanoma ngabe into encane kakhulu, awuzizweli yini wanelisekile enhliziyweni yakho kunokuba ubuzidlele ukudla? Uma inhliziyo yakho yanelisekile, akwenzeki yini ukuba inhliziyo yakho, ubuwena bonke, buzuze ukuthula? Ngalesi sifaniso kanye nokuhlaziya, ingabe niyaqonda manje ukuthi kungani bengifuna ukwabelana nani lo musho, iNdodana yomuntu iyiNkosi ngisho yosuku lwesabatha? Incazelo yawo ukuthi lokho okuvela kuNkulunkulu, lokhu anakho nayikho, nakho konke Okwakhe kukhulu kunezinto zonke, kubandakanya nento, noma umuntu owake wakholwa ukuthi uyigugu kakhulu kuwe. Lokho kusho ukuthi, uma umuntu engenakho ukuba namazwi avela emlonyeni kaNkulunkulu noma engaqondi intando Yakhe, ngeke azuze ukuthula. Kulokhu enisazodlula kukho, niyoqonda ukuthi kungani bengifuna ukuba nibone lesi siqephu namuhlalokhu kubaluleke kakhulu. Yonke into uNkulunkulu ayenzayo iyiqiniso nokuphila. Iqiniso le sintu kuyinto abangeke bayiswele ezimpilweni zabo, ngeke baphile ngaphandle kwayo; ungasho futhi ukuthi iyonanto enkulu kakhulu. Noma ungeke wakwazi ukuyibona, noma ukuyithinta, ukubaluleka kwayo kuwe ngeke ukuzibe; iyonanto kuphela engaletha ukuthula enhliziyweni yakho.Ngaphakathi komsebenzi owenziwa iNkosi uJesu ngeNkathi Yomusa, ungabona enye ingxenye yalokhu uNkulunkulu anakho nayikho. Kwabonakaliswa ngenyama Yakhe, futhi kwenziwa ukuba kwenzeke ukuze abantu babone futhi batuse ngokuba umuntu Kwakhe, futhi babone ubunkulunkulu bukaNkulunkulu kubonakalisiwe ngokwenyama. Lezi zibonakaliso ezimbili zavumela abantu ukuba babone uNkulunkulu wangempela weqiniso, futhi zabavumela ukuba bazibumbele umfanekiso ohlukile kaNkulunkulu. Nokho, ngenkathi yesikhathi esiphakathi kokudalwa komhlaba kanye nokuphela kweNkathi Yomthetho, okusho ukuthi, ngaphambi kweNkathi Yomusa, lokho okwabonwa, abakuzwa, futhi nabadlule kukho abantu kwakuyingxenye yobunkulunkulu bukaNkulunkulu kuphela. Kwakuyilokho uNkulunkulu akwenzile nakushilo embusweni ongaphatheki ngezandla, nezinto azivezayo ebuntwini Bakhe wangempela ezingeke zabonakala noma zathintwa. Ngokuvamile, lezi zinto zenza ukuba abantu bezwe ukuthi uNkulunkulu wayemkhulu, futhi babengeke bakwazi ukusondela Kuye. Isithombe uNkulunkulu avamise ukusinika kubantu ukuthi wayekhazimula njalo njalo, abantu baze bacabanga ukuthi yonke imicabango kanye nemibono Yakhe ngayinye yayiyimfihlakalo futhi iyindida ngale ndlela yokuthi yayingekho indlela yokufinyelela kuyo, ayisaphathwa eyokuzama ukuyiqonda kanye nokuyitusa. Kubantu, yonke into ngoNkulunkulu yayiqhelileiqhele ngale ndlela yokuthi abantu abakwazanga ukuyibona, abakwazanga ukuyithinta. Kwakusengathi uphezulu esibhakabhakeni, futhi kwakungathi akekho nhlobo. Ngakho kubantu, ukuqonda inhliziyo nomqondo kaNkulunkulu noma yini ayicabangayo yayingenakwenzeka, futhi ingafinyeleleki. Noma ngabe uNkulunkulu wenza eminye imisebenzi eqinile ngeNkathi Yomthetho, wakhipha namazwi athile futhi wabonakalisa izimo ezithile ukuze avumele abantu ukuba batuse futhi babone ulwazi lweqiniso Ngaye, kodwa ekugcineni, lokho kwabe kuwukuziveza kukaNkulunkulu kulokhu anakho nayikho. Isintu asiwutholanga umqondo onzulu kulokhu kuziveza ngokuthia lokho anakho nayikho, futhi ukucabanga kwabo ngoNkulunkulu kwakusabambeke phakathi kwendawo yokuthi uMoya okunzima ukuba seduze nawo, lona ofiyoza njalo Ngokuba uNkulunkulu akasebenzisanga into ethile noma isithombe sendawo ephathekayo ukuze abonakale kubantu, baqhubeka nokwehluleka ukumchaza ngolimi lwabantu. Ezinhliziyweni nasezingqondweni zabantu, babehlala befuna ukusebenzisa ulimi lwabo ukumisa izinga likaNkulunkulu, ukumenza aphatheke futhi abe umuntu, njengokuthi mude kangakanani, mkhulu kangakanani, ubukeka kanjani, uthandani futhi ungumuntu onjani. Eqinisweni, enhliziyweni Yakhe uNkulunkulu wabe azi ukuthi abantu babecabanga ngale ndlela. Wayeziqonda kahle izidingo zabantu, kanjalo, Yena wabe azi ukuthi kumele enzeni, ngakho Yena Wawenza umsebenzi Wakhe ngendlela ehlukile ngeNkathi Yomusa. Le ndlela yayinobunkulunkulu kanye nobuntu. Ngesikhathi iNkosi uJesu isebenza, abantu babona ukuthi uNkulunkulu uziveza ngezimo zabantu abahlukene. Isibonelo, Yena wayekwazi ukudansa, eya emishadweni, ehlanganyela nabantu, ekhuluma nabo, exoxisana ngezinto nabo. Nangaphezu kwalokho, iNkosi uJesu yafeza umsebenzi omningi owawumele ubunkulunkulu Bakhe, futhi kunjalo, wonke lo msebenzi wawuyisiboniso futhi wambula isimo sikaNkulunkulu. Ngalesi sikhathi, lapho ubunkulunkulu bukaNkulunkulu babonakala enyameni eyejwayelekile, abantu abebengayibona futhi bayithinte, ababuyanga besezwa ukuthi uyakhazimula ngaphakathi nangaphandle, babengakwazi ukusondela Kuye. Kunalokho, babezama ukuqonda intando kaNkulunkulu noma umsebenzi weNdodana yomuntu. Indodana yomuntu esesimweni somuntu yaveza ubunkulunkulu bukaNkulunkulu ngokobuntu Bakhe futhi wadlulisa intando kaNkulunkulu esintwini. Futhi ngokubonakaliswa kwentando kanye nesimo sikaNkulunkulu, Yena waphinda waveza kubantu uNkulunkulu ongabonakali noma ongathinteki emhlabeni wakwamoya. Lokhu okwabonwa ngabantu kwakunguNkulunkulu uqolo Lwakhe, ethinteka futhi enenyama namathambo. Ngakho iNdodana yomuntu esesimweni somuntu yenza izinto ezifana nobuyena Bakhe, ukuma Kwakhe, isithombe Sakhe, isimo Sakhe kanye nalokho Yena anakho nayikho, yaqina futhi yenziwa isimo somuntu. Noma ngabe ukubonakala kwengaphandle kweNdodana yomuntu kwaba nemikhawulo mayelana nomfanekiso kaNkulunkulu, ingqikithi Yakhe kanye nalokhu anakho nayikho kwakwazi ngokupheleleyo ukumela ubunjalo nokumakwakunokwahlukana ngokwesimo sokubonakaliswa. Noma ngabe iNdodana yomuntu enyameni noma ebunkulunkulwini Bayo, ngeke siphike ukuthi Yona yamela nokuma kukaNkulunkulu. Ngalesi sikhathi, nokho, uNkulunkulu wasebenza ngenyama, wakhuluma njengokwenyama, futhi wama phambi kwesintu ngobunjalo nangokuma kweNdodana yomuntu, futhi lokhu kwanika abantu ithuba lokuhlangana nokuzizwela amazwi eqiniso kaNkulunkulu phakathi kwesintu. Yaphinda yavumela abantu ukuba babe nokuqonda ubunkulunkulu Bakhe kanye nobukhulu Bakhe phakathi kokuzithoba, kanye nokuzuza ukuqonda kwangaphambili kanye nencazelo yangaphambili yeqiniso kanye noqobo lukaNkulunkulu. Nakuba umsebenzi owafezwa iNkosi uJesu, izindlela Zakhe zokusebenza, nange ndlela ayekhuluma ngayo eyabe yahlukile kuleyo yomuntu woqobo kaNkulunkulu emhlabeni wakwamoya, yonke into Ngaye yamela uNkulunkulu uqobo ngokweqiniso abantu ababengakaze bayibone ngaphambililokhu ngeke kuphikwe! Okusho ukuthi, nanoma ngabe uNkulunkulu uvela ngasiphi isimo, noma ukhuluma ngayiphi indlela Yena akhuluma ngayo, noma ngamuphi umfanekiso abhekana ngawo nesintu, uNkulunkulu akameli lutho kodwa Yena uqobo Lwakhe. Yena angeke amele umuntuangeke amele noma imuphi umuntu okhohlakele. UNkulunkulu unguNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe, futhi lokhu akusoze kwaphikwa.Math 18:12-14 Nicabangani? uma umuntu enezimvu eziyikhulu, bese eyodwa ilahleka, akazishiyi ezingamashumi ayisishiyagalolunye nesishiyagalolunye, futhi aye ezintabeni, ayofuna elahlekile na? Bese uma eyithola, ngiqinisile ngithi kini, uthokoza ngayo kakhulu kunalezi zimvu, ezingamashumi ayisishiyagalolunye nesishiyagalolunye ezingalahlekanga. Kanjalo akusiyo intando kaYihlo osezulwini, ukuba kubhubhe noyedwa kulaba abancane.Math 18:21-22 Khona-ke kwasondela uPetru kuye, futhi wathi, Nkosi, umfowethu angone kangaki, futhi ngimthethelela na? kuze kube kasikhombisa na? UJesu wathi kuye, angisho kuwe, Kuze kube kasikhombisa: kodwa, Kuze kube kamashumi ayisikhombisa aphindwe kasikhombisa.Math 22:37-39 UJesu wathi kuye, Wothanda iNKOSI uNkulunkulu wakho ngenhliziyo yakho yonke, nangomphefumulo wakho wonke, nangengqondo yakho yonke. Lo umyalelo wokuqala futhi omkhulu. Nowesibili uyafana nawo, Wothanda umakhelwane wakho njengoba uzithanda wena ngokwakho.Ngesikhathi uNkulunkulu ethatha isimo senyama, Wasilethela lokho kanye nesigaba somsebenzi Wakhewaletha umsebenzi othile wale nkathi kanye nesimo ayefuna ukusiveza kule nkathi. Ngaleyo nkathi, konke okwenziwa yiNdodana yomuntu kwakuzungeza emsebenzini uNkulunkulu ayefuna ukuwenza ngalenkathi. Wayengeke enze okuningi noma okuncane. Yonke into ayisho kanye nalo lonke uhlobo lo msebenzi awenza, kwakumayelana nalenkathi. akukhathaliseki ukuthi wakuveza ngendlela yobuntu nangolimi lo buntu noma ngolimi lo bunkulunkulunanoma ngayiphi indlela, nanoma ngakuliphi uhlangothiinjongo Yakhe kwakuwukusiza abantu ukuze baqonde ukuthi wayefuna ukwenzani, kwakuyini intando Yakhe, yini imibandela ayeyidinga kubantu. Wayengasebenzisa izindlela ezahlukene, ekubukeni ngezindlela ezahlukeni ukuze asize abantu ukuba baqonde futhi bayazi intando Yakhe, baqonde umsebenzi Wakhe wokuhlenga isintu. Ngakho ngeNkathi Yomusa sibona iNkosi uJesu ivamise ukusebenzisa ulimi lo muntu ukuze aveze ayefuna ukukukhuluma nesintu. Nangaphezulu, simbona ngasohlangothini lo mqondisi ojwayelekile ekhuluma nabantu, efeza izidingo zabo, ebasiza ngalokho abakucelile. Le ndlela yokusebenza ayibonakalanga ngeNkathi Yomthetho eyayikhona ngampambi kweNkathi Yomusa. Wasondela kakhulu futhi waba nesihe esintwini, kanye nokukwazi ukuthola imiphumela ebonakalayo kukho kokubili, isimo nendlela yokwenza. Inkulumo yokuthethelela abantu kamashumi ayisikhombisa aphindwe kasikhombisa ilichaza kahle leli phuzu. Injongo ezuzwe inombolo kule nkulumo ukuthi ivumele abantu baqonde inhloso yeNkosi uJesu ngesikhathi ekusho lokhu. Injongo Yakhe kwakungukuthi abantu kumele baxolele abanyehhayi kanye noma kabili, futhi hhayi ngokuphindwe kasikhombisa, kodwa amashumi ayisikhombisa aphindwe kasikhombisa. Uhlobo luni lombono lolu amashumi ayisikhombisa aphindwe kasikhombisa? Olokuthi abantu benze ukuthethelela kube umthwalo wabo, into okumele bayifunde, futhi kube indlela okumele bayigcine, noma ngabe-ke lokhu bekuyinkulumo nje, inikeza iphuzu elibucayi. Lenza ukuba abantu baqonde ngokucacile futhi labanika umqondo onokucophelela ukuba bafunde intetheleloukuthethelela ngaphandle kwemibandela nangaphandle kwemikhawulo, kodwa ngokwesimo sengqondo yokubekezelelana kanye nokuqonda abanye.

Isiqiniseko Sayo kanye nalokhu eyayikunqumile ukukwenza kwakuphathelene nokusindisa umuntu, futhi yayinenjongo eyodwa: ukwenza intando kaNkulunkulu, ukuze akwazi ukuqala isigaba esilandelayo emsebenzini Wakhe ngempumelelo. Yilokhu okwakusemqondweni weNkosi uJesu ngaleso sikhathi.Ephila enyameni, uNkulunkulu osemzimbeni, wayenobuntu obujwayelekile; Yena wayenemizwa kanye nokucabanga komuntu ojwayelekile, wayazi ukuthi iyini intokozo, buyini ubuhlungu, kodwa ngesikhathi ebona isintu sikulolu hlobo lwempilo, wezwa ngokujulile ukuthi ukumane enika abantu izifundiso, ukubanikeza utho noma ukubafundisa okuthile, kwakungeke kubaholele ekutheni baphume esonweni. Nokuthi balalele imiyalelo kwakungeke kubahlenge esonweni nakhokungesikhathi lapho ebhekana khona nesono sesintu kuphela futhi ethatha umfanekiso wenyama enesono lapho wayengasishintshanisa nenkululeko yesintu. Ngakho emva kokuba iNkosi uJesu isibonile futhi yakufakazela ukuphila kwabantu esonweni, kwaba khona ukulangazelela okukhulu okwabonakaliswa enhliziyweni Yayoukuvumela abantu balahle ngokwabo izimpilo zabo zokuzabalaza esonweni. Lokhu kulangazelela kwayenza ukuba Izwe kakhulu ukuthi kumele iye esiphambanweni futhi Ithathe izono zabantu ngokuphuthuma, masinyane. Lena kwakuyimicabango yeNkosi uJesu ngaleso sikhathi, emva kokuba isiphilile nabantu futhi ibonile, izwile, futhi izwile usizi lwezimpilo zabo esonweni. Ukuthi uNkulunkulu osemzimbeni wayenalolu hlobo lokulangazelela ngesintu, ukuthi wayengaveza lolu hlobo lwesimongabe lokhu yinto umuntu ojwayelekile angaba nayo? Wayengabonani umuntu ojwayelekile kulesi simo? Wayezocabangani? Uma umuntu ojwayelekile wayengabhekana nakho konke lokhu, ingabe wayezobuka izinkinga ngendlela ephezulu? Akunjalo! Nakuba uNkulunkulu osemzimbeni uyafana ncamashi nabantu, wafunda ulwazi lwabantu futhi wakhuluma ulimi lwabantu, futhi kwesinye isikhathi uveza imibono Yakhe ngezindlela zesintu nangemisho, ngendlela abona ngayo abantu, ingqikithi yezinto, nange ndlela abantu abakhohlakele ababona ngayo isintu kanye nobunjalo bezinto akufani. Indlela abuka ngayo kanye nokuphakama kwalapho emi khona kuyinto angenakufinyelela kuyo umuntu okhohlakele. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi uNkulunkulu uyiqiniso, inyama ayigqokile inobunjalo bukaNkulunkulu, futhi imicabango Yakhe kanye nalokho okuvezwa ubuntu Bakhe, nakho kuyiqiniso. Kubantu abakhohlakele, lokhu akukhuluma esenyameni kuwukuhlinzekwa kweqiniso kanye nokuphila. Lokhu kuhlinzekwa akusikhona okomuntu oyedwa, kodwa okwesintu sonke. Ngokuba noma imuphi umuntu okhohlakele, enhliziyweni yakhe kukhona kuphela labo bantu abambalwa abahambisana naye. Yilabo bantu kuphela abakhathalelayo, akhathazekile ngabo. Uma kuvela inhlekelele ucabanga kuqala ngezingane zakhe, lowo ashade naye, noma abazali kanti umuntu othanda ukusiza, angacabanga ngesihlobo noma umngani olungile; angacabanga ngabanye? Ngeke! Ngoba abantu, emva kwakho konke, bangabantu, futhi bangakwazi ukubheka izinto zonke kuphela ngasohlangothini nokuphakama komuntu. Nokho, uNkulunkulu osemzimbeni uhluke kakhulu kumuntu okhohlakele. Noma ngabe ujwayeleke kangakanani, noma uvame kangakanani, noma uphansi kangakanani uNkulunkulu osemzimbeni, ngisho noma bambukela phansi kangakanani abantu, imicabango Yakhe, nesimo sengqondo Yakhe ngesintu, kuyizinto umuntu angeke aze abe nazo, futhi akekho umuntu ongakulingisa. Uyohlala njalo ebheka isintu ngobukhona kanye nomqondo kaNkulunkulu, akasoze abona umuntu ngokubuka kwezinga lomuntu ojwayelekile nje, futhi nange ndlela yomuntu okhohlakele. Uma abantu bebheka isintu, babuka ngokubona kwabantu, futhi basebenzisa izinto ezifana nolwazi lwabantu kanye nemigomo yabantu kanye nabakufundile njengesilinganiso. Lokhu kungaphakathi kwesilinganiso salokho abantu abangakubona ngamehlo abo; kungaphakathi kwesilinganiso esingafezwa umuntu okhohlakeleyo. Uma uNkulunkulu ebheka isintu, ubuka ngokubona kobunkulunkulu, futhi usebenzisa ingqikithi yakhe kanye nalokhu anakho nayikho njengesilinganiso. Lesi silinganiso simbandakanya izinto ezingabonwa ngabantu, yilapho uNkulunkulu osemzimbeni kanye nabantu abakhohlakele bephambana kakhulu. Lo mehluko wenziwa ubunjalo babantu nobunjalo bukaNkulunkulu, yilobu bunjalo obenza ukubona kwabo nokuma kwabo kanye nangendlela nokuphakama ababona ngakho izinto. Ingabe niyakubona ukukhuluma nokubonakaliswa kukaNkulunkulu uqobo lwakhe eNkosini uJesu? Ningasho nithi lokho okwenziwa nokwashiwo iNkosi uJesu kwakuhlobene nenkonzo Yakhe kanye nomsebenzi nokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu, yilokho ukubonakaliswa nokwembulwa kobunjalo bukaNkulunkulu. Noma wayenakho ukubonakaliswa komuntu, ingqikithi yobunkulunkulu Bakhe kanye nokwembulwa kobunkulunkulu Bakhe angeke kuphikwe. Ingabe lokhu kubonakaliswa komuntu kwakuwukubonakaliswa kwesintu? Ukubonakaliswa kobuntu Bakhe, ngobunjalo Bakhe, kwakuhlukile kakhulu ekubonakalisweni komuntu okhohlakele. INkosi uJesu yayingubuntu bukaNkulunkulu, futhi uma engaba omunye wabajwayelekile, abantu abakhohlakele, yayingazibona yini izimpilo zesintu zisezonweni ngendlela yobunkulunkulu? Akunjalo! Lona ngumehluko phakathi kweNdodana yomuntu kanye nabantu abajwayelekile. Bonke abantu abakhohlakele baphila esonweni, kanti noma ubani uma ebona isono, abanawo umuzwa othile ngaso; bonke bayafana, njengengulube ehlala odakeni engazizwa ingakhululekile, noma ingcolileidla kahle, ilale kamnandi. Uma umuntu engahlanza isibaya sezingulube, ingulube ngeke isanethezeka, futhi ngeke ihlale ihlanzekile. Kungakapheli isikhathi, iyophindela futhi iyozigingqa odakeni, inethezeke ngokupheleleyo, ngokuba iyisidalwa esingcolile. Uma abantu bebona izingulube, babona ukuthi zingcolile, uma uyigeza, ingulube ayizizwa ingconoyingakho engekho umuntu ogcina ingulube endlini yakhe. Indlela abantu ababona ngayo izingulube iyohlala njalo ihlukile kune ndlela izingulube ezizibona ngayo, ngoba abantu nezingulube abasibo abohlobo olufanayo. Futhi ngenxa yokuthi ubuntu beNdodana yomuntu abufani nobabantu abakhohlakele, ubuntu bukaNkulunkulu kuphela obungamela ukubona ngendlela kaNkulunkulu, futhi kume endaweni yokuphakama kukaNkulunkulu ukubona isintu, ukubona zonke izinto.Lapho uNkulunkulu eba yinyama futhi ehlala phakathi kwesintu, yikuphi lokhu kuhlupheka akuzwayo enyameni? Ingabe ukhona oqonda ngempela? Abanye abantu bathi uNkulunkulu uhlupheka kakhulu, nanoma enguNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe, abantu abaqondi ingqikithi Yakhe futhi bamthathisa okomuntu njalo, lokhu okumezwa azizwe ecasukile futhi oniwebathi ukuhlupheka kukaNkulunkulu kukhulu. Abanye abantu bathi uNkulunkulu umsulwa futhi akanasono, kodwa Yena uhlupheka ngokufana kanye nesintu futhi uhlupheka ngokukhashelwa, ukuhletshwa, ukujivazwa kanye nesintu; bathi futhi wabekezelela ukungaqondwa kanye nokungalalelwa abalandeli Bakheukuhlupheka kukaNkulunkulu kungelinganiswe. Kubonakala sengathi awumqondi ngempela uNkulunkulu. Eqinisweni, lokhu kuhlupheka enikhuluma ngakho akukubali ukuhlupheka kwangempela kukaNkulunkulu, ngokuba kukhona ukuhlupheka okudlula lokhu. Pho-ke, ikuphi ukuhlupheka kweqiniso kukaNkulunkulu? Ikuphi ukuhlupheka ngokweqiniso kobuntu bukaNkulunkulu enyameni? KuNkulunkulu, ukungamqondi kwesintu nokungamboni njengoNkulunkulu akakubali njengenhlupheko. Nokho, abantu bajwayele ukuzwa sengathi kungenzeka uNkulunkulu wahlupheka ukungabi nobulungiswa obukhulu, ngesikhathi uNkulunkulu esenyameni angeke abonise ubuyena Bakhe esintwini futhi ngeke ababonise ubukhulu Bakhe, futhi uNkulunkulu usitheza ngokuthobekileyo inyama engabalulekile, lokho kwakuhlukumeza kuYena. Abantu bakuthathela enhliziyweni lokhu abakuqondayo nalokho abakubonayo okokuhlupheka kukaNkulunkulu, bese bephoqelela zonke izinhlobo zokudabuka kuNkulunkulu futhi isikhathi esiningi baze balethe nendumiso encanyana yakho. Eqinisweni, ukhona umehluko, kukhona igebe phakathi kwalokhu abantu abakuqonda njengokuhlupheka kukaNkulunkulu kanye nalokhu akuzwa ngempela. Nginitshela iqinisokuNkulunkulu, nanoma ngabe uMoya kaNkulunkulu noma ubuntu bukaNkulunkulu enyameni, lokho kuhlupheka akusikho ukuhlupheka kweqiniso. Kanti yini lena uNkulunkulu ayihlupheka ngempela? Ake sikhulume ngokuhlupheka kukaNkulunkulu kuphela sikususela ekubukeni ngendlela kaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu.Lapho uNkulunkulu ethatha eba yinyama, eba umuntu osphakathi nendawo, ojwayelekile, ohlala phakathi kwesintu, icala ngecala nabantu, akaziboni futhi akazizwa yini izindlela zabantu, imithetho kanye nefilosofi yokuphila. Ingabe Yena uzizwa kanjani ngalezi zindlela nemithetho yokuphila? Ingabe uyenyanya enhliziyweni Yakhe? Iziphi izindlela nemithetho yesintu yokuphila? Iziphi izimiso abagxile kuzo? Imuphi umsuka wazo? Izindlela, imithetho kanye nokunye kwesintu kokuphilakonke lokhu kwenziwe kususelwa emqondweni, olwazini kanye nomgomo wokuphila kaSathane. Abantu abaphila ngaphansi kwale nhlobo yemithetho abanabo ubuntu, abanalo iqinisobonke behlula iqiniso, futhi banobutha kuNkulunkulu. Uma sibheka ingqikithi kaNkulunkulu kuphambene nalokhu okungukucabanga, ulwazi kanye nomgomo wokuphila kaSathane. Ingqikithi Yakhe igcwele ukulunga, iqiniso, ubungcwele, kanye nobukhona bezinto ezinhle. UNkulunkulu, enale ngqikithi futhi ephila phakathi kwesintuingabe uzwani enhliziyweni Yakhe? Ingabe akugcwele yini ubuhlungu? Inhliziyo Yakhe isebuhlungwini, futhi lokhu ubuhlungu obungeke baqondwa noma babonwa ngumuntu. Ngoba yonke into abhekana, ahlangabezane, ayizwayo, ayibonayo kanye nadlula kuyo Yena, inkohlakalo yomuntu kuphela, ububi, kanye nokuhlubuka kwabo abamelene neqiniso. Konke lokhu okuvela kubantu kungumsuka wokuhlupheka Kwakhe. Lokho kusho ukuthi, ngokuba ingqikithi Yakhe ayifani neyabantu abakhohlakele, ukukhohlakala kwabantu kuba umsuka wokuhlupheka Kwakhe okukhulu. Uma uNkulunkulu ethatha isimo senyama, ingabe Yena uyakwazi yini ukuthola umuntu onolimi olufana noLwakhe? Lokhu angeke kutholakale phakathi kwesintu. Akekho ongatholakala ongakhuluma, ongaxoxisana noNkulunkuluungathi uhlobo luni lo muzwa uNkulunkulu analo? Izinto abantu abakhuluma ngazo, ukuthi bayazithanda, abazifunayo, nabazilangazelelayo, kuyisono, nokujwayela ububi. Uma uNkulunkulu ebhekana nakho konke lokhu, akufani yini nomsebenzi enhliziyweni Yakhe? Ebhekene nazo zonke lezi zinto, angaba nayo yini injabulo enhliziyweni Yakhe? Angakuthola yini ukududuzeka? Labo abaphila Naye ngabantu abagcwele ukuhlubuka kanye nobubikungenzeka kanjani ukuthi inhliziyo Yakhe ingahlupheki? Ingabe kungakanani lokhu kuhlupheka, futhi ubani onendaba nakho? Ubani oqaphelayo? Ubani ongakubonga? Abantu abangenandlela yokuqonda inhliziyo kaNkulunkulu. Ukuhlupheka Kwakhe into abantu abangakwazi ukuyazisa, futhi ukubanda nokungabi namizwa kwabantu kwenza ukuhlupheka Kwakhe kujule kakhulu.Kukhona abanye abantu abangazwelana nosizi lukaKristu ngoba kukhona ivesi eBhayibhelini elithi: Izimpungushe zinemigodi, nezinyoni zezulu zinezidleke; kodwa iNdodana yomuntu ayinayo indawo yokubeka ikhanda. Ngesikhathi abantu bekuzwa lokhu, bakufaka ezinhliziyweni zabo futhi base beyakholwa ukuthi lokhu ukuhlupheka okukhulu uNkulunkulu akubekezelela, futhi ukuhlupheka okukhulu uKristu akubekezelela. Manje, uma sikubheka ngokwamaqiniso, ileso simo yini? UNkulunkulu akakholwa ukuthi lobu bunzima ukuhlupheka. Yena akakaze akhale ngokungabikho bokulungiswa ngenxa yobunzima benyama, Yena akakaze enze ukuba abantu bamkhokhele noma bamvuze nanoma ngani. Nokho, ngesikhathi ebona zonke izinto zesintu, izimpilo ezikhohlakele kanye nobubi babantu abakhohlakele, uma ebona ukuthi isintu sibanjwe uSathane futhi saboshwa uSathane futhi angeke siphunyuke, ukuthi abantu abaphila esonweni abazi ukuthi liyini iqinisoYena akakwazi ukumela zonke lezi zono. Ukwenyanya Kwakhe abantu kwenyukela usuku ngosuku, kodwa kwakumele akubekezelele konke lokhu. Lokhu ukuhlupheka kukaNkulunkulu okukhulu. UNkulunkulu akakwazi ukubonisa ngisho izwi lenhliziyo Yakhe noma imizwa Yakhe phakathi kwabalandeli Bakhe, futhi akekho phakathi kwabalandeli Bakhe ongaqonda ngeqiniso ukuhlupheka Kwakhe. Akekho nozamayo ukuqonda noma ukududuza inhliziyo Yakheinhliziyo Yakhe ibekezelela lobu buhlungu nsuku zonke, minyaka yonke, ngezikhathi zonke. Nibonani kukho konke lokhu? UNkulunkulu akadingi lutho kubantu ukushintshanisa nalokhu akunikelile, kodwa kungenxa yobunjalo Bakhe, angeke akwazi ukumela ububi besintu, inkohlakalo, kanye nesono, kodwa uzwa ukunyanya nenzondo enkulu, okuholela inhliziyo nenyama kaNkulunkulu ekubekezeleleni ukuhlupheka okungapheli. Niyakubona konke lokhu na? Kungenzeka, akukho namunye wenu ongabona lokhu, ngokuba akukho namunye wenu ongaqonda uNkulunkulu. Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi ningazizwela khona nina kancane kancane.Joh 6:8-13 Omunye wabafundi bakhe, u-Andreya, umfowabo kaSimoni Petru, wathi kuye, Kukhona insizwa lapha, enezinkwa zebhali eziyisihlanu, kanye nezinhlanzi ezincane ezimbili: kodwa ziyini lezi kwabaningi kangaka na? UJesu waye sethi, Bahlaliseni phansi abantu. Manje kwakunotshani obuningi kuleyo ndawo. Ngakho abantu bahlala phansi, ngokwenani cishe izinkulungwaneni eziyisihlanu. UJesu wase ethatha izinkwa; esethandazile wabonga, wazabela abafundi bakhe, abafundi kulabo ababehlezi phansi; kanjalo futhi nezinhlanzi njengokufisa kwabo. Kuthe ngenkathi sebesuthi, wathi kubafundi bakhe, Buthani imvuthuluka esele, kuze kungachitheki lutho. Ngakho bazibuthela ndawonye, futhi zagcwala obhasikidi abayishumi nambili ngemvuthuluka yezinkwa eziyisihlanu zebhali, eyayisele phezu kwalokho abebakudlile.Joh 11:43-44 Futhi lapho esekhulumile, wamemeza ngelizwi elikhulu, Lazaru, phuma. Futhi loyo owayefile waphuma, eboshwe izandla nezinyawo ngezindwangu zase thuneni: futhi ubuso bakhe buboshwe ngendwangu. UJesu wathi kubo, Mthukululeni, bese nimyeka ahambe.Phakathi kwezimangaliso ezenziwa iNkosi uJesu, sikhethe kuphela lezi ezimbili ngokuba zanele ukubonisa lokhu engifisa ukukhuluma ngakho lapha. Lezi zimangaliso ezimbili ziyashaqisana kakhulu, futhi zimele izimangaliso zeNkosi uJesu ngeNkathi Yomusa.Okokuqala, ake sibheke isiqephu sokuqala: UJesu Usuthisa Izinkulungwane Eziyisihlanu.Inhloboni yomcabango othi izinkwa eziyisihlanu nezinhlanzi ezimbili? Bangaki abantu abangasuthiswa izinkwa eziyisihlanu nezinhlanzi ezimbili? Uma nilinganisa ngokulangazelela ukudla komuntu oyedwa ngokujwayelekile, kungalingana abantu ababili. Nokho, kulotshiwe kulesi siqephu ukuthi izinkwa eziyisihlanu nezinhlanzi ezimbili zasuthisa abantu abangaki? Kulotshiwe kulo mbhalo ngale ndlela: Manje kwakunotshani obuningi kuleyo ndawo. Ngakho abantu bahlala phansi, ngokwenani cishe izinkulungwaneni eziyisihlanu. Uma kuqhathaniswa nezinkwa eziyisihlanu nezinhlanzi ezimbili, ingabe izinkulungwane eziyisihlanu ziyisibalo esikhulu? Ngokomcabango womuntu, ukwahlukanisa izinkwa eziyisihlanu nezinhlanzi ezimbili phakathi kwabantu abayizinkulungwane eziyisihlanu akunakwenzeka, ngoba umehluko phakathi kwakho mukhulu kakhulu. Noma bekungathiwa wonke umuntu uluma kanye kancane, bekungeke kwabanela abantu abayizinkulungwane eziyisihlanu. Kodwa lapha, iNkosi uJesu yenza isimangalisoYona ayibavumelanga kuphela abantu abayizinkulungwane eziyisihlanu ukuba badle basuthe, kodwa kwaba nangaphezulu. Umbhalo uthi: Kuthe ngenkathi sebesuthi, wathi kubafundi bakhe, Buthani imvuthuluka esele, kuze kungachitheki lutho. Ngakho bazibuthela ndawonye, futhi zagcwala obhasikidi abayishumi nambili ngemvuthuluka yezinkwa eziyisihlanu zebhali, eyayisele phezu kwalokho abebakudlile. Lesi simangaliso savumela abantu ukuba babone ubunjalo kanye nezinga leNkosi uJesu, sabavumela futhi ukuba babone ukuthi akukho okungenzeki kuNkulunkulubabona iqiniso nokuba namandla onke kukaNkulunkulu. Izinkwa eziyisihlanu nezinhlanzi ezimbili zanela ukusuthisa izinkulungwane eziyisihlanu. Kodwa uma kwakungekho kudla ngabe uNkulunkulu wayezokwazi yini ukusuthisa izinkulungwane eziyisihlanu? Kunjalo, Yena wayezokwazi! Lesi kwakuyisimangaliso, ngakho ngokungagwemeki, abantu bezwa ukuthi lokhu akuqondisiseki futhi bezwa ukuthi akukholakali futhi kuyimfihlakalo, kodwa kuNkulunkulu, Ukwenza lokhu kwakuyinto engelutho. Njengoba lokhu kwakuyinto ejwayelekile kuNkulunkulu, kungani lokhu kutonyuliwe ngenxa yokuhumusha? Ngoba lokhu okufihleke ngemuva kwalesi simangaliso kuqukethe intando yeNkosi uJesu, engakaze itholwe isintu.Okokuqala, ake sizame ukuqonda uhlobo luni lwabantu laba abayizinkulungwane eziyisihlanu. Ingabe babengabalandeli beNkosi uJesu? Emibhalweni, siyazi ukuthi kwakungesibo abalandeli Bayo. Ingabe babazi ukuthi iNkosi uJesu ingubani? Babengazi ngempela! Okungenani, babengazi ukuthi umuntu omi phambi kwabo kwakunguKristu, noma kungenzeka ukuthi abanye abantu bebazi igama Lakhe kuphela, futhi ukwazi into noma babezwile ngezinto owayezenzile. Babenelukuluku nje ngeNkosi uJesu ngenxa yezindaba, kodwa naningeke uthi babemlandela Yena, ingasaphathwa eyokumqonda Yena. Ngesikhathi iNkosi uJesu ibona laba bantu abayizinkulungwane eziyisihlanu, babelambile, becabanga kuphela ukuba basuthiswe, ngakho kwakuyilengqikithi eyenza ukuba iNkosi uJesu yanelise ukufisa kwabo. Ngesikhathi yenelisa izifiso zabo, kwakunani enhliziyweni Yayo? Yona yayibabheka kanjani laba bantu ababefuna ukusuthiswa kuphela? Ngalesi sikhathi imicabango yeNkosi uJesu kanye nendlela eyayibabheka ngayo yayihamabisana nesimo kanye nobunjalo Bayo. Ibhekane nalaba bantu abayizinkulungwane eziyisihlanu abalambile futhi abafuna kuphela ukusuthiswa, Yona ibhekene nalaba bantu abanelukuluku kanye nethemba Ngayo, iNkosi uJesu yacabanga ukusebenzisa lesi simangaliso ukunikeza umusa phezu kwabo. Nokho, ayibanga namathemba aphezulu okuthi bazophenduka abalandeli Bayo, ngoba yayazi ukuthi babezifunela ukungena ebumnandini nokuthi badle basuthe, ngakho yenza okwedlulele ngalokho eyayinakho lapho, yasebenzisa izinkwa eziyisihlanu nezinhlanzi ezimbili ukusuthisa abantu abayizinkulungwane eziyisihlanu. Yavula amehlo alaba bantu ababejabulela ubumnandi, ababefuna ukubona izimangaliso, futhi bazibonela ngamehlo abo izinto ezazingafezwa ubuntu bukaNkulunkulu. Noma-ke iNkosi uJesu yasebenzisa into ephathekayo ukwanelisa ilukuluku labo, yabe yazi enhliziyweni Yayo ukuthi laba bantu abayizinkulungwane eziyisihlanu babezifunela ukuba nesidlo esimnandi, ngakho ayishongo lutho futhi ayibashumayezangayavele yabavumela ukuba babone isimangaliso senzeka. Yayingeke ikwazi neze ukubaphatha ngendlela efanayo nalena eyayiphatha ngayo abafundi Bayo ababemlandela ngeqiniso, kodwa enhliziyweni kaNkulunkulu, zonke izidalwa zazingaphansi kokubusa Kwakhe, futhi Yayizovumela zonke izidalwa ezisemehlweni Ayo ukuba zithokozele umusa kaNkulunkulu uma kunesidingo. Noma-ke laba bantu babengamazi ukuthi Ungubani noma Bayiqonde noma babe nendlela Abayibuka ngayo, noma babe nokubonga Kuyo emva kokudla izinkwa nezinhlanzi, lokhu akusiyo into uNkulunkulu owayengayenza udabaWanikeza laba bantu ithuba elimangalisayo ukuba bathokozele umusa kaNkulunkulu. Abanye bathi uNkulunkulu unezimiso kulokhu akwenzayo, Yena akabi umlindi noma avikele abangakholwa, futhi Yena akabavumeli ukuba bathokozele umusa Wakhe. Ingabe kunjalo ngempela? Emehlweni kaNkulunkulu, inqobo nje beyizidalwa eziphilayo ezidalwe Nguye; uzobelapha, abahlelele, futhi ababuse ngezindlela ezahlukene. Lena yimicabango kanye nendlela uNkulunkulu abuka ngayo izinto zonke.Nakuba abantu abayizinkulungwane eziyisihlanu abadla izinkwa nezinhlanzi abahlelanga ukulandela iNkosi uJesu, akaqinisanga isandla kubo; emva kokuba sebedle basutha, ingabe niyazi ukuthi yenzani iNkosi uJesu? Ingabe yabashumayeza? Yaya kuphi emva kokwenza lokhu? Umbhalo awukubhalanga ukuthi iNkosi uJesu kukhona eyakusho kubo; emva kokuba isiqedile isimangaliso Sayo, Yahamba ngokunyomuka. Ingabe kukhona yini akudinga kulaba bantu? Ingabe yaba khona yini inzondo? Kwakungekho lutho kwalokhuAyibange isafuna ukucabanga ngalaba bantu abangayilandelanga, futhi ngalesi sikhathi inhliziyo Yayo yayisebuhlungwini. Ngokuba Yayisibonile ukonakala kwesintu futhi Yayisikuzwile ukudelwa ngabantu, futhi ngesikhathi ibabona laba bantu noma Yayinabo, ukungaboni kwabantu kanye nokungazi kwenza yaba nosizi kakhulu futhi kwashiya inhliziyo Yakhe isezinhlungwini, ngakho Yafuna ukubashiya laba bantu masinyane. Inkosi ayibanga nalutho eludinga kubo enhliziyweni Yayo, ayifunanga ukucabanga ngabo, Ayifunanga ukusebenzisa amandla Ayo ngabo, futhi yabe yazi ukuthi ngeke bayilandelengaphezu kwakho konke lokhu, indlela Yona eyayibabuka ngayo yayicacile. Yayifuna ukubaphatha kahle, ukubahlinzekela, ukubondla. Ngalesi sizathu sokuthi iNkosi uJesu yayingubuntu bukaNkulunkulu, Yena waveza ngokwemvelo ingqikithi kaNkulunkulu futhi Yabaphatha ngomusa laba bantu. Yabaphatha ngomusa ngenhliziyo enesihawu nokubekezelelana. Noma ngabe laba bantu bayibona kanjani iNkosi uJesu, noma ngabe uhlobo luni lwemiphumela olwaluzoba khona, Yavele yaphatha zonke izidalwa ngokwesimo Sayo njengeNkosi yendalo yonke. Lokhu eyakwembula kwakungenakho okwahlukile, isimo sikaNkulunkulu, kanye nalokhu anakho nayikho. Ngakho iNkosi uJesu yenza into ngokuthula, emva kwalokhu yahamba ngokuthulaiyiphi ingxenye yesimo sikaNkulunkulu lena? Ungasho yini ukuthi lona umusa nothando kaNkulunkulu? Ungasho yini ukuthi uNkulunkulu uzifunela okwakhe? Ingabe umuntu ojwayelekile angakwenza lokhu? Angeke ngempela! Empeleni, kwakungobani laba bantu abayizinkulungwane eziyisihlanu abasuthiswa iNkosi uJesu ngezinkwa eziyisihlanu nezinhlanzi ezimbili? Ungasho yini ukuthi laba bantu babehambisana Naye? Ungasho yini ukuthi bonke babenobutha kuNkulunkulu? Kungashiwo ngesiqiniseko ukuthi babengenabutha neNkosi, kodwa ingqikithi yabo yayinobutha noNkulunkulu. Kodwa wabaphatha kanjani uNkulunkulu laba bantu? Yena wasebenzisa indlela ukuze adambise ubutha babantu kuNkulunkulule ndlela ibizwa ngokuthi umusa. Okungukuthi, noma ngabe iNkosi Yababona njengezoni, nokho emehlweni kaNkulunkulu bayindalo, ngakho yaziphatha ngomusa lezi zoni. Lokhu kungukubekezelela kukaNkulunkulu, futhi lokhu kubekezelela kunqunywa ubunguye nobunjalo bukaNkulunkulu. Ngakho, lokhu into engeke yenziwe umuntu odalwe nguNkulunkuluuNkulunkulu kuphela ongenza lokhu.Uma usukwazi ngempela ukwazisa imicabango kaNkulunkulu kanye nendlela uNkulunkulu abheka ngayo isintu, uma ungaqonda ngempela imizwa nokukhathalela kukaNkulunkulu isidalwa ngasinye, uyokwazi ukuqonda ukuzinikela kanye nothando aluchitha ngomunntu ngamunye wabantu abadalwe uMdali. Uma lokhu kwenzeka, uzosebenzisa amagama amabili ukuchaza uthando lukaNkulunkuluimaphi lawomagama? Abanye bathi ongenabugovu, abanye abantu bathi unobuntu. Kulamagama amabili, unobuntu igama elingafanele ukuchaza uthando lukaNkulunkulu. Leli igama elisetshenziswa ngabantu ukuchaza umuntu onemicabango nemizwa evulelekile. Ngiyalinyanya leli gama, ngoba libhekise ekukhipheni incazelo ngokungahleleki, ngokubandlulula, ngokunganaki izimiso. Kuyinkulumo eqhutshwa imizwa yabantu abayiziwula futhi abadidekile. Uma leli gama lisetshenziswa ukuchaza uthando lukaNkulunkulu, kukhona injongo yokuhlambalaza, nakanjani. Nginamagama amabili achaza uthando lukaNkulunkulu ngeqinisoimaphi lamagama? Elokuqala elithi mkhulukazi. Kungabe leli gama liyakhumbuzana kakhulu? Elesibili elithi ubanzi. Kukhona incazelo yangempela kulamagama amabili engiwasebenzisayo ukuchaza uthando lukaNkulunkulu. Athathwe ngokoqobo, mkhulukazi lichaza umthamo noma amandla okuqukethe into, kodwa akusho lutho ukuthi into ingakananiinto abantu abangakwazi ukuyithinta nokuyibona. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi ikhona, akusiyona into esuselwayo, futhi inika abantu umuzwa wokuthi icophelele futhi iyaphatheka. Akusho lutho ukuthi uyibuka ngasohlangothini oluyisicaba noma olunxantathu; awudingi ukucabanga ngobukhona bayo, ngokuba kuyinto ekhona ngempela. Noma-ke usebenzisa umkhulukazi ukuchaza uthando lukaNkulunkulu uyezwa ukuthi linikeza uthando Lwakhe inani, nokho, linikeza umuzwa wokungalinganiseki futhi. Ngithi uthando lukaNkulunkulu lunganikwa inani ngoba uthando Lwakhe akusilo uhlobo olungenanhlangano, futhi aluphethuki kunoma iyiphi into yakudala. Okunalokho, luyinto okuhlephulelwana ngayo ezintweni zonke ezibuswa nguNkulunkulu, futhi luyinto ethokozelwa indalo yonke ngokwamazinga ahlukene kanye nangezindlela ezahlukene. Noma-ke abantu bengaluboni noma baluthinte, lolu thando luletha ukugcinwa kanye nempilo ezintweni zonke njengokuba lwembulwa kancane kancane ezimpilweni zabo, futhi babala futhi bafakazele uthando lukaNkulunkulu abaluthokozela yonke imizuzu. Ngithi uthando lukaNkulunkulu alulinganiseki ngoba imfihlakalo kaNkulunkulu ihlinzeka futhi yondla zonke izinto, lokho kunzima kubantu ukuba bakuqonde, kanjalo nemicabango kaNkulunkulu yezinto zonke, ikakhulukazi lezo zesintu. Lokhu kusho ukuthi, akekho owazi igazi nezinyembezi zoMdali azichithele isintu. Akekho ongabamba, akekho ongaqonda ukujula noma ukuphakama kothando loMdali analo ngesintu, esidalwe izandla Zakhe. Ukuchaza uthando lukaNkulunkulu njengolukhulukazi ukusiza abantu ukuba bazise futhi baqonde ububanzi neqiniso lobukhona Bakhe. Ukuze futhi abantu baqonde ngokujulile incazelo yeqiniso yegama Mdali, futhi ukuze abantu bazuze ukuqonda okujulile kwencazelo yeqiniso yesidlaliso indalo. Lichaza ukuthini igama elithi ububanzi? Lisetshenziselwa ulwandle noma umkhathi, njengokuthi umkhathi obanzi, noma ulwandle olubanzi. Ububanzi kanye nokujula kakhulu komkhathi kungaphezu kokuqonda komuntu, futhi into ethumba imicabango yomuntu, ngendlela yokuthi igcwale ukuncoma. Imfihlakalo nenjula yalo kuyabonakala kodwa akuthinteki. Uma ucabanga ngolwandle, ucabanga ngobubanzi balolubonakala lungenamkhawulo, futhi uyayizwa imfihlakalo yalo kanye nokusingatha kwalo. Yingakho ngisebenzise igama ububanzi ukuchaza uthando lukaNkulunkulu. Ukusiza abantu ukuba bezwe ukuthi kuyigugu kangakanani, ukuzwa injula yobuhle bothando Lwakhe, kanye nokuthi amandla othando Lwakhe awanamkhawulo futhi lunzulu. Ukubasiza bezwe ubungcwele bothando Lwakhe, kanye nesithunzi nokungakhubekisani kukaNkulunkulu okuvezwa ngothando Lwakhe. Manje uyacabanga ukuthi ububanzi buyigama elifanele ukuchaza uthando lukaNkulunkulu? Ingabe uthando lukaNkulunkulu lungavumelana nalamagama amabili, ubukhulukazi kanye nobubanzi? Nakanjani! Ngokolimi lwabantu, yila magama amabili kuphela afanele, futhi asondelene nokuchaza uthando lukaNkulunkulu. Anicabangi kanjalo? Uma bengingathi chazani uthando lukaNkulunkulu, ningawasebenzisa la magama amabili? Cishe angeke, ngoba ukuqonda nokwazisa kwenu uthando lukaNkulunkulu kunomkhawulo ngendlela yokubuka eyisicaba, futhi alukanyukeli ebudeni bendawo enhlangothintathu. Ngakho uma bengingathi chazani uthando lukaNkulunkulu, benizozwa ukuthi neswele amazwi; futhi nize nehleke ukukhuluma. Amagama amabili engikhulume ngawo namuhla angabanzima kini ukuba niwaqonde, noma nje nivele ungavumi, lokhu kungasho ukuthi ukwazisa nokuqonda kwenu uthando lukaNkulunkulu kunokuzenzisa futhi kuphakathi komngcingo. Ngishilo ngaphambili ukuthi uNkulunkulu akanamhobholouyalikhumbula igama ukungabi namhobholo. Kungashiwo yini ukuthi uthando lukaNkulunkulu lungachazwa kuphela ngokungabi namhobholo? Lokhu akumngcingo kakhulu? Kumele ucabange ngalolu daba kakhulu kube khona okuzuzayo kulo.Nicabangani emva kokufunda lesi siqephu? Ukubaluleka kwalesi simangaliso esenziwa iNkosi uJesu kwabe kukukhulu kakhulu kunaleso esidlule ngoba asikho isimanga esimangazayo ngaphezu kokubuyisa indoda efile ethuneni. Ukwenza kweNkosi uJesu into enje kwakubalulekile kakhulu ngaleyo nkathi. Ngokuba uNkulunkulu wayesephenduke inyama, abantu babengaboni kuphela ukuvela kwakhe enyameni, uhlangothi Lwakhe oluphathekayo, kanye nohlangothi Lwakhe olunganakiwe. Noma abantu babona baqonda ubunjalo Bakhe noma amandla eyayibonakala inawo Yona, akekho owabe azi ukuthi iNkosi uJesu ivelaphi, kwakungubani ingqikithi Yayo yeqiniso, nokuthi yikuphi futhi okunye eyayingakwenza. Konke lokhu kwakungaziwa isintu. Abantu abaningi bafuna ubufakazi balokhu, nokwazi iqiniso. Kukhona yini uNkulunkulu owayengakwenza ukuveza ubufakazi ngobuyena Bakhe? KuNkulunkulu, lokhu kwakungumoya ohelezayokwakuwubala. Yena wayengenza into noma kuphi, noma ngasiphi isikhathi ukufakaza ngobuyena nangobunjalo Bakhe, kodwa uNkulunkulu wakwenza konke lokhu ngohlelo, futhi ngokulandelana. Akazenzanga izinto ngokokucwasa; wabheka isikhathi esifanele, kanye nethuba elilungile ukwenza into ebalulekile ukuba ibonwe isintu. Lokhu kufakazela igunya Lakhe kanye nobunjalo Bakhe. Ngakho-ke, ingabe ukuvuka kukaLazaru kufakazela ubunjalo beNkosi uJesu? Ake sibheke lesi siqephu sombhalo: Futhi lapho esekhulumile, wamemeza ngelizwi elikhulu, Lazaru, phuma. Futhi loyo owayefile waphuma. Ngesikhathi iNkosi uJesu ikwenza lokhu, Yona yasho into eyodwa: Lazaru, phuma. ULazaru wabe esephuma ethuneni lakhelokhu kwafezeka ngenxa yomusho owodwa owashiwo iNkosi. Ngalesi sikhathi, iNkosi ayibekanga i-altare, futhi ayenzanga ezinye izenzo, Yona yavele yasho into eyodwa. Lokhu kungabizwa ngesimangaliso noma ngomyalelo? Noma kwakuwuhlobo lo buthakathi? Uma ukukha ngaphezulu, kubukeka sengathi kumele kubizwe ngesimangaliso, futhi uma ukubheka ngendlela ephucuzekile, kunjalo, ungakubiza ngesimangaliso. Nokho, angeke ngempela kubizwe ngomlingo wokubuyisa umphefumulo kwabafileyo, futhi angeke ngempela ukubize ngobuthakathi. Kulungile ukusho ukuthi, lokhu kwakuyisimangaliso segunya lo Mdali. Leli igunya, kanye nekhono likaNkulunkulu. UNkulunkulu unegunya lokuthi umuntu afe, umphefumulo wakhe ushiye umzimba wakhe bese ubuyela eHayidesi, noma kuphi lapho okumele uye khona. Uma umuntu efa, nalapho abaya khona emva kokufalokhu kunqunywa nguNkulunkulu. Angakwenza lokhu noma ngasiphi isikhathi noma kuphi. Yena akacindezelwa ngabantu, izehlakalo, izinto, isikhala, noma indawo. Uma Yena efuna ukukwenza, uzokwenza, ngoba zonke izinto nokuphilayo kungaphansi kokubusa Kwakhe, futhi zonke izinto ziyaphila futhi zife ngezwi Lakhe, igunya Lakhe. Angavusa umuntu ofilelokhu futhi yinto angayenza noma nini, noma kuphi. Lokhu yigunya okunguMdali kuphela analo.Uma iNkosi uJesu kukhona ekwenzayo okufana nokubuyisa uLazaru ekufeni, injongo Yayo kwabe kuwukunika ubufakazi kubantu nakuSathane ukuze babone, futhi yenze abantu noSathane bazi ukuthi izinto zonke zesintu, ukuphila nokufa kwesintu kunqunywa nguNkulunkulu, nokuthi noma yayikade ithathe isimo senyama, njengokwemihla, ihlala ibusa izwe lenyama elibonakalayo kanye nezwe lakwamoya abantu abangeke balibone. Lokhu kwabe kungokokubonisa abantu noSathane ukuthi izinto zonke zesintu azikho phansi kombuso kaSathane. Lokhu kwakungukwembulwa nokubonakaliswa kwegunya likaNkulunkulu, futhi kwakuyindlela kaNkulunkulu yokuthumela umyalezo kuzo zonke izinto ukuthi ukufa nokuphila kusezandleni zikaNkulunkulu. Ukuvusa kweNkosi uJesu uLazarule ndlela yokwenza izinto kwakungenye yendlela yoMdali yokufundisa nokuqondisa isintu. Kwakuyisenzo esiqinile asebenzisa ngayo ikhono kanye negunya Lakhe ukuqondisa isintu, kanye nokuhlinzeka abantu. Kwakuyindlela ngaphandle kwamazwi ukuba uMdali avumele isintu sibone iqiniso Lakhe libusa ezintweni zonke. Kwakuyindlela Yakhe yokutshela isintu ngezenzo eziphathekayo, ukuthi ayikho insindiso ngaphandle Kwakhe. Lolu hlobo lo kuthula lusho ukuthi ukuqondisa Kwakhe isintu kumi kuze kube phakadeakunakusuka, futhi kwaletha enhliziyweni yomuntu ukwethuka kanye nokukhanyiseleka okungayikuphela. Ukuvuka kukaLazaru kwakhazimulisa uNkulunkululokhu kunomthelela ojulile kubo bonke abangabalandeli bakaNkulunkulu. Igxilisa wonke umuntu oqonda ngokujulile lesi sehlakako ukuqonda, umbono othi nguNkulunkulu kuphela ongayala ukuphila nokufa. Noma uNkulunkulu enalolu hlobo lwegunya, futhi noma wathumela umlayezo ngobukhosi Bakhe phezu kokuphila nokufa kwesintu ngokuvuka kukaLazaru, lokhu kwakungesiwo umsebenzi Wakhe oyiwona wona. UNkulunkulu akayenzi into engenancazelo. Yonke into ayenzayo ibaluleke kakhulu; konke kuyingcebo ejwayelekile. Yena wayengeke enze ukuphuma komuntu ethuneni kube iwona msebenzi Wakhe obalulekile, noma kube iyona njongo Yakhe noma enye indaba. UNkulunkulu akukho akwenzayo ngaphandle kwencazelo. Okukodwa ukuvuka kukaLazaru kwanele ukubonisa igunya likaNkulunkulu. Kwanele ukufakaza ngobunjalo kweNkosi uJesu. Yingakho iNkosi uJesu ingaluphindanga lolu hlobo lwesimangaliso. UNkulunkulu wenza izinto ngokwezimiso Zakhe. Ngokolimi lwabantu, bekuzothiwa uNkulunkulu uyawuqikelela ngomsebenzi Wakhe obalulekile. Okungukuthi, uma uNkulunkulu enza izinto akaduki enjongweni Yakhe. Yena uyazi ukuthi imuphi umsebenzi afuna ukuwenza kulesi isigaba, lokho afuna ukukufeza, futhi uzosebenza angaphambuki ecebeni Lakhe. Uma umuntu okhohlakele ebe nalolu hlobo lwekhono, ebezocabanga ngezindlela zokuveza ikhono lakhe ukuze abanye bazi ukuthi yena uyingozi kangakanani, ngakho bebezomkhothamela, ukuze abalawule futhi abashwabadele. Lobu ububi obuvela kuSathanelokhu kubizwa ngenkohlakalo. UNkulunkulu akanaso isimo esinje, futhi akanayo ingqikithi enje. Injongo Yakhe ngokwenza izinto akusikho ukuthi abukwe Yena, kodwa ukuhlinzeka isintu ngesambulo esikhulu kanye nesiqondiso, ngakho abantu babona izibonelo ezimbalwa eBhayibhelini ezifana nalezi. Lokhu akusho ukuthi amakhono eNkosi uJesu ayenomkhawulo, noma akakwazanga ukwenza lolu hlobo lwento. Kusho ukuthi uNkulunkulu wayengafuni ukukwenza, ngoba ukuvuswa kukaLazaru iNkosi uJesu kwaba nomthelela ophathekayo, futhi ngenxa yokuthi umsebenzi obalulekile kaNkulunkulu ethathe isimo senyama kwakungesikho ukwenza izimangaliso, kwakungesikho ukuvusa abantu abafileyo, kodwa kwakungumsebenzi wokuhlengwa kwesintu. Ngakho, umsebenzi omningi owafezwa iNkosi uJesu kwakuwukufundisa abantu, ukubahlinzeka, ukubasiza, kanye nezinto ezinjengokuvusa uLazaru ezingezincane enkonzweni eyenziwa iNkosi uJesu. Nangaphezulu, naningasho ukuthi ukubukisa akusiyo ingxenye yobunjalo bukaNkulunkulu, ngakho ukungabonakalisi izimangaliso eziningi kwakungekhona ukuvimbeka ngenhloso, noma kwakungeyiso isizathu semikhawulo yendawo, futhi kwakungesikho ukwesweleka kwekhono.10. UJesu Uhlulelwa AbaFarisi11. UJesu Ukhuza AbaFarisiJoh 20:26-29 Emva futhi kwezinsuku eziyisishiyagalombili, abafundi bakhe babesendlini, noTomase enabo: uJesu wafika, iminyango ivaliwe, futhi wema phakathi kwabo, wabe esethi, Ukuthula makube kini. Khona-ke wathi kuTomase, Letha lapha umunwe wakho, futhi ubone izandla zami; bese letha isandla sakho, futhi usifake ohlangothini lwami: ungabi ongenalo ukholo, kodwa onokholo. UTomase wabe esephendula wathi kuye, NKOSI yami noNkulunkulu wami. UJesu wathi kuye, Tomase, ngenxa yokuthi usungibonile, usuyakholwa: Babusisiwe abakholwayo, kodwa bengabonanga.Joh 21:16-17 Wabuye wathi kuyena ngokwesibili, Simoni, ndodana kaJona, uyangithanda? Wathi kuye, Yebo, Nkosi; uyazi ukuthi ngiyakuthana. Wathi kuye, Yondla izimvu zami. Wathi kuye ngokwesithathu, Simoni, ndodana kaJona, uyangithanda na? UPetru wadabuka ngokuba wayesembuza okwesithathu ukuthi, Uyangithanda na? Futhi wathi kuye, Nkosi, wazi konke wena; uyazi ngiyakuthanda. uJesu wathi kuye, Yondla izimvu zami.Lokhu lezi ziqephu ezikhuluma ngakho ezinye zezinto ezenziwa iNkosi uJesu futhi wazisho kubafundi Bakhe emva kokuvuka. Okokuqala, ake sibheke umehluko phakathi kweNkosi uJesu ngaphambi nangemuva kokuvuka. Ingabe wayesewuJesu ofanayo wezinsuku ezidlule? Umbhalo uqukethe lo musho olandelayo ochaza ngeNkosi uJesu emva kokuvuka uJesu wafika, iminyango ivaliwe, futhi wema phakathi kwabo, wabe esethi, Ukuthula makube kini. Kuyacaca ukuthi iNkosi uJesu ngaleso sikhathi wayengasekho enyameni, kodwa emzimbeni womoya. Lokhu kwakungenxa yokuthi wayesedlulile emkhawulweni wenyama, ngesikhathi umnyango uvuliwe Yena wabe esakwazi ukufika phakathi kwabo futhi abavumele bembone Yena. Lona ngumehluko omkhulu phakathi kweNkosi uJesu emva kokuvuka kanye neNkosi uJesu ngaphambi kokuvuka. Noma ngabe wawungekho umehluko ngengaphandle lo mzimba womoya wangaleso sikhathi kanye nengaphandle leNkosi uJesu ngaphambili, uJesu ngaleso sikhathi wayesephenduke uJesu owayefana nesihambi kubantu, ngokuba wayesephenduke umzimba womoya emva kokuvuswa kwabafileyo, uma kuqhathaniswa nenyama Yakhe yangaphambili, lo mzimba womoya wawuletha imibuzo futhi udida abantu. Futhi wavula igebe phakathi kukaJesu nabantu, abantu bezwa ezinhliziyweni zabo ukuthi iNkosi uJesu ngaleso sikhathi yayisiphenduke imfihlakalo kakhulu. Lokhu ukuqonda kanye nemizwa ngasohlangothini lwabantu, ngokungazelelwe kwababuyisela emuva enkathini yokukholwa kuNkulunkulu owayengabonakali futhi engathinteki. Ngakho, into yokuqala iNkosi uJesu eyayenza emva kokuvuka Kwayo kwaba ukuvumela wonke umuntu ukuba Bayibone, ukuqinisekisa ukuthi Yona ikhona, nokuqinisekisa ukuvuka Kwayo. Ngaphezu kwalokho, kwabuyisela ubudlelwano nabantu, ubudlelwano ayenabo ngesikhathi esebenza enyameni, futhi wayenguKristu ababengambona futhi bengamthinta. Ngale ndlela, umphumela owodwa ukuthi abantu ababanga nokungabaza ukuthi iNkosi uJesu yayivusiwe ekufeni emva kokubethelwa esiphambanweni, futhi kwakungekho ukungabaza ngomsebenzi weNkosi wokuhlenga isintu. Omunye umphumela ukuthi iqiniso lo kuvela kweNkosi uJesu kubantu emva kokuvuka Kwakhe futhi ukuvumela abantu bambone futhi bamthinte kwaqinisekisa isintu ngeNkathi Yomusa. Kusukela ngalesi sikhathi, abantu ababuyelanga enkathini edlule, iNkathi Yomthetho, ngenxa yokunyamalala noma ukuhlubuka, kodwa baqhubekela phambili, belandela izimfundiso nomsebenzi owenziwa iNkosi uJesu. Ngakho, isigaba esisha emsebenzini ngeNkathi Yomusa yayisivuliwe ngokusemthethweni, abantu ababengaphansi komthetho baphuma emthethweni ngokomthetho kusukela ngaleso sikhathi kuqhubeke, base bengena enkathini entsha, ngokuqala okusha. Kunezincazelo eziphindiwe ngokubonakala kweNkosi uJesu esintwini emva kokuvuka.Njengoba wayesewumzimba womoya, kwakungenzeka kanjani ukuthi abantu bayithinte Yona futhi bayibone Yona? Lokhu kumayelana nokubaluleka kokubonakala kweNkosi uJesu esintwini. Kukhona yini enikuqaphele kulezi ziqephu zombhalo? Ngokujwayelekile, imizimba womoya ayikwazi ukubonakala noma ukuthinteka, futhi emva kokuvuka umsebenzi iNkosi uJesu eyayikade iwenza, wawuvele usufeziwe. Ngakho, ngokucabanga nje, sasingekho isidingo sokuthi Yona ibuyele phakathi kwabantu ngokwesithombe Sayo semvelo ukuzohlangana nabo, kodwa ukubonakala komzimba womoya weNkosi uJesu kubantu abafana noTomase, kwenza ukubaluleka kwawo kube nesigqi kakhulu, futhi kwangena kwagxila ezinhliziyweni zabantu. Uma Efika kuTomase, Yena wavumela uTomase ongabazayo ukuba athinte izandla Zakhe, wayesemtshela: letha isandla sakho, futhi usifake ohlangothini lwami: ungabi ongenalo ukholo, kodwa onokholo. La mazwi, lokhu kwenza kwakungesizo izinto iNkosi uJesu eyayifuna ukuzenza emva kokuba esevulile kodwa kwakuyizinto owayefuna ukuzenza ngaphambi kokuba abethelwe esiphambanweni. Kunobufakazi bokuthi iNkosi uJesu eyayingakabethelwa esiphambanweni, kakade yayisinokuqonda abantu abanjengo Tomase. Ngakho, singabonani kulokhu? WayeseyiNkosi uJesu efanayo emva kokuvuka Kwakhe. Ingqikithi Yakhe yayingaguqukanga. Ukungabaza kuka Tomase kwakungeve kuqala nje kodwa kwakukade kukuye ngesikhathi sonke ebelandela ngaso iNkosi uJesu, kodwa Wabe eyiNkosi uJesu eyayivusiwe ekufeni futhi wayebuye ezweni laka moya nesiqu sakhe sasekuqaleni, nesimo Sakhe sasekuqaleni, Kanye nokuqonda Kwakhe isintu kusukela ngesikhathi Sakhe esenyameni, ngakho Wahamba ukuyofuna uTomase kuqala, ukuze ivumele uTomase ukuba ayithinte izimbambo Zayo, ukumvumela ukuthi angaboni kuphela umzimba Wayo womoya emva kokuvuka, kodwa ukumvumela ukuba athinte futhi ezwe ubukhona bomzimba Wayo womoya, futhi ahlukane phansi nokungabaza kwakhe. Ngaphambi kokuba iNkosi uJesu ibethelwe esiphambanweni, uTomase wayehlala engabaza ukuthi unguKristu, futhi wayengakukholwa lokhu. Ukukholwa kwakhe kuNkulunkulu kwakumiswe yilokhu akwazi ukukubona ngamehlo akhe, lokho ayekwazi ukukuthinta ngezandla zakhe. INkosi uJesu yayinokuqonda okuhle ngokukholwa kwalolu hlobo lomuntu. Babekholwa kuphela uNkulunkulu osezulwini, futhi babengakholwa nhlobo, futhi babengeke bamamukele Oyedwa othunyelwe uNkulunkulu noma uKristu enyameni. Ukuze imenze ukuba ayazise futhi akholwe ubukhona beNkosi uJesu nokuthi ngempela wayenguNkulunkulu enyameni, wavumela uTomase ukuba elule isandla sakhe bese ethinta ubambo Lwayo. Ingabe ukungabaza kukaTomase kwakuhlukene phakathi kwengaphambili nengemuva lokuvuka kweNkosi uJesu? Ebehlala engabaza, ngaphandle kokuthi umzimba womoya weNkosi uJesu uvele kuye mathupha, futhi uvumela uTomase ukuba athinte omaka bezipikili emzimbeni Wayo, akekho owayengaguquka ukungabaza kwakhe, futhi akekho owayengamenza akudedele. Ngakho kusukela ngesikhathi iNkosi uJesu imvumela ukuba athinte ubambo Lwayo ukuze ezwe ubukhona bezimpawu zezipikili, ukungabaza kukaTomase kwanyamalala, wayesazi ukuthi iNkosi uJesu ivukile futhi wavuma, wakholwa ukuthi iNkosi uJesu inguKristu, ukuthi wayenguNkulunkulu enyameni. Noma ngaleso sikhathi uTomase wayengasangabazi, walahlekelwa ithuba lokuhlangana noKristu, ukumlandela, kanye nokumazi ingunaphakade. Walahlekelwa ithuba lokuthi uKristu amphelelise. Ukubonakala kweNkosi uJesu kanye namazwi Ayo kwaletha isiphetho, kanye nobufakazi bokukholwa kwalabo ababegcwele ukungabaza, Yona yasebenzisa amagama Ayo angempela ukutshela labo ababekholwa kuphela kuNkulunkulu osezulwini kodwa bengakholwa kuKristu: uNkulunkulu akakuncomanga ukukholwa kwabo, kanye nokulandela kwabo okwakugcwele ukungabaza. Usuku abakholwa ngalo kuNkulunkulu noKristu ngokugcwele kungaba ilona suku lapho uNkulunkulu aqeda umsebenzi Wakhe omkhulu. Impela, lolo suku kwaku lusuku futhi lapho ukungabaza kwabo kwathola isinqumo. Isimo sengqondo yabo ngoNkulunkulu sanquma isiphetho sabo, nokungabaza kwabo okunenkani kwasho ukuthi ukukholwa kwabo akubanikanga miphumela, futhi ubulukhuni babo kwasho ukuthi amathemba abo ayeyize. Ngenxa yokuthi ukukholwa kwabo kuNkulunkulu osezulwini, kwakondliwe ngenkohliso, futhi ukungabaza kwabo uKristu kwakuyisimo sengqondo sabo sangempela ngoNkulunkulu, noma bathinta omaka bezipikili emzimbeni weNkosi uJesu, ukukholwa kwabo kwakungenamsebenzi futhi imiphumela yabo yayingachazwa ngokuthi ukushaya umoyakuyize. Lokhu iNkosi uJesu eyakusho kuTomase kwakucacile kakhulu kuwona wonke umuntu. INkosi uJesu evukile iNkosi uJesu ekuqaleni eyachitha iminyaka engamashumi amathathu nantathu nesigamu isebenza phakathi kwesintu. Noma wayebethelwe esiphambanweni futhi wabhekana nesigodini sethunzi lokufa, futhi wabhekana nokuvuka, ubuyena Bayo bonke abuguqukanga. Noma-ke manje inophawu lwezipikili emzimbeni Wayo, noma-ke ivusiwe futhi yaphuma ethuneni, isimo Sayo, ukuqonda Kwayo isintu, injongo Yayo ngesintu akuguqukanga nakancane. Okunye, Yona yabatshela abantu ukuthi yehla esiphambanweni, futhi yanqoba phezu kwesono, yanqoba phezu kobunzima, futhi yanqoba phezu kokufa. Izimpawu zesipikili kwakungubufakazi wokuba umnikelo wesono ukuze kuhlengwe isintu ngempumelelo. Yona yayitshela abantu ukuthi Yayisizithathile izono zesintu futhi Yayisiqedile umsebenzi Wayo wokuhlenga. Ngesikhathi ibuyela ukuyoba nabafundi Bayo, yabatshela ngokubonakala Kwayo: Mina ngiyaphila, ngisekhona; namuhla Mina ngimile phambi kwenu ukuze ningibone futhi ningithinte. Ngiyohlala nginani. INkosi uJesu yayifuna ukusebenzisa indaba kaTomase njengesixwayiso kubantu abalandelayo: Nakuba ukholwa iNkosi uJesu, angeke uyibone noma uyithinte, nokho ungabusiseka ngokholo lwakho lwangempela, futhi ungayibona iNkosi uJesu ngokholo lwakho lweangempela; lolu hlobo lo muntu lubusisekile.La mazwi alotshiwe eBhayibhelini ukuthi iNkosi uJesu yakhuluma kuTomase awusizo olukhulu kubantu beNkathi Yomusa. Ukubonakala Kwayo namazwi Ayo kuTomase kwaba nomthelela obalulekile esizukulwaneni esizayo, futhi anokubaluleka okuphakade. UTomase umele uhlobo lo muntu okholwa kuNkulunkulu futhi ebe emngabaza uNkulunkulu. Banemvelo esolayo, banezinhliziyo ezimbi, bayakhohlisa, futhi abakholwa ezintweni uNkulunkulu angazifeza. Abakholwa kuNkulunkulu uMninimandla Wonke, kanye nokubusa Kwakhe, futhi abakholwa kubuntu bukaNkulunkulu. Nokho, ukuvuka kweNkosi uJesu kwaba ukushaywa ngempama ebusweni kubo, kwaba nika ithuba lokuba bathole ukungabaza kwabo, babone ukungabaza kwabo, bavume inkohliso yabo, ukuze bakholwe ebukhoneni nasekuvukeni kweNkosi uJesu. Lokhu okwenzeka ngoTomase kwakuyisexwayiso nesiyalo sezizukulwane ukuze abantu abaningi bazibheke ukuze bangangabazi njengoTomase, futhi uma kungukuthi bebengabaza, bayoshona ebumyameni. Uma ulandela uNkulunkulu, kodwa njengoTomase, uhlale ufuna ukuthinta ubambo lweNkosi futhi uthinte nezimpawu zesipikili ukuqinisekisa, ukufakazela, ukucabangela ukuthi uNkulunkulu ukhona noma akekho, UNkulunkulu uzokudela. Ngakho, iNkosi uJesu ifuna abantu ukuthi bangabi njengoTomase, bekholwa kuphela yilokhu abakubonayo ngamehlo abo, kodwa ukuthi ube ngumuntu omsulwa, othembekile, ongagcini ukungabaza maqondana noNkulunkulu, kodwa ukholwe Kuye futhi umlandele kuphela Yena. Lolu hlobo lo muntu lubusisekile. Lokhu iNkosi uJesu ekufuna kubantu kuncane kakhulu, futhi kuyisixwayisa kubalandeli Bayo.Kulenkulumo, iNkosi uJesu yabuza uPetru ngokuphindelela into eyodwa: Petru, uyangithanda na? Leli izinga eliphezulu iNkosi uJesu elidingayo kubantu abafana noPetru emva kokuvuka Kwayo, abakholwa kuKristu ngeqiniso futhi abalwela ukuthanda iNkosi. Lo mbuzo wawufana nophenyo, kungathi ukuhlonywa ngemibuzo, okungaphezulu, kwakuyisidingo kanye nokulindelwe kubantu abafana noPetru. Yena wasebenzisa le ndlela ukuze abantu bazindle futhi bazibheke: Udingani uNkulunkulu kubantu? Ngiyayithanda yini iNkosi? Ngingamthanda kanjani uNkulunkulu? Nakuba iNkosi uJesu yabuza lo mbuzo kuPetru kuphela, iqiniso ukuthi enhliziyweni Yayo, Yona yayifuna ukusebenzisa leli thuba lokubuza uPetru lolu hlobo lo mbuzo wabantu abaningi abafuna ukuthanda uNkulunkulu. Ukuthi nje uPetru wayebusisekile ukusetshenziswa njengomele lolu hlobo lo muntu, ukuthola ukubuzwa okuvela emlonyeni weNkosi uJesu.Uma uqhathanisa ukuthi letha isandla sakho, futhi usifake ohlangothini lwami: ungabi ongenalo ukholo, kodwa onokholo, okwashiwo iNkosi uJesu kuTomase emva kokuvuka Kwayo, nombuzo Wayo ophindwe kathathu wokubuza uPetru: Simoni, ndodana kaJona, uyangithanda na? uvumela abantu ukuba bezwe ubunzima be simo sengqondo yeNkosi uJesu, kanye nokuphuthuma eyayikuzwa ngesikhathi imbuza. UTomase ongabazayo yena nemvelo yakhe enobuqili nenkohliso, iNkosi uJesu yamvumela ukuba elule isandla sakhe, wathinta izimpawu zesipikili, okwamenza wakholwa ukuthi iNkosi uJesu iyiNdodana yomuntu evukile futhi wabazisa ubunjalo beNkosi uJesu njengoKrisu. Nakuba iNkosi uJesu ingamkhuzanga ngesankahlu uTomase, noma futhi ingavezanga ngamazwi ukumehlulelwa okucacile, Yamazisa ukuthi Yabe imqonda ngezenzo zoqobo, kulapho yabe ikhombisa futhi isimo sengqondo kanye nokuqonda Kwakhe loluya hlobo lo muntu. Okudingwayo futhi okulindelwe yiNkosi uJesu kulolu hlobo lo muntu angeke kubonakale kulokhu eyakusho Yona. Ngokuba abantu abafana noTomase abanayo nentanjana nje okukholwa kweqiniso. Okudingwa yiNkosi uJesu kubona kukulokhu kuphela, kodwa isimo sengqondo Eyasiveza kubantu abafana noPetru sihlukile kakhulu. Ayidinganga ukuba uPetru alule isandla sakhe athinte izimpawu zesipikili, futhi Ayishongo ukuthi kuPetru: ungabi ongenalo ukholo, kodwa onokholo. Kunalokho, yabuza uPetru ngokuphindaphinda umbuzo ofanayo. Lona kwakuwumbuzo owawuphonsa inselelo unenjongo nakanjani eyenza ukuthi bonke abalandeli bakaKristu bezwe benokuzisola, nokwesaba, kodwa futhi bezwe umuzwa oshisekile onosizi weNkosi uJesu. Futhi lapho besezihlungwini nasekuhluphekeni okukhulu, bangakwazi kakhulu ukuqonda ukukhathazeka kweNkosi uJesu ngokunakekela Kwayo; bayazibona izimfundiso Zayo eziqotho kanye nemibandela Yayo yabantu abamsulwa abathembekile. Umbuzo weNkosi uJesu uvumela abantu ukuba bezwe okulindelwe iNkosi uJesu kubantu okuboniswa, kula mazwi alula akusikho ukumane ukholwe Kuyo futhi Uyilandele kuphela, kodwa ukuphumelela ukuba nothando, ukuthanda iNkosi yakho, ukuthanda uNkulunkulu wakho. Lolu hlobo lo thando luyanakekela futhi luyalalela. Lungabantu bephilela uNkulunkulu, befela uNkulunkulu, benikela konke kuNkulunkulu, besebenzisa futhi benika konke kuNkulunkulu. Lolu hlobo lo thando lunika uNkulunkulu induduzo, lumvumela ukuba athokozele ubufakazi, futhi lumvumela ukuba aphumule. Luyinkokhelo yesintu kuNkulunkulu, umthwalo wabo, ukuzibophezela kanye nomsebenzi wabo, futhi kuyindlela okumele abantu bayilandela izimpilo zabo zonke. Le mibuzo emithathu yayiyisidingo kanye nenkuthazo iNkosi uJesu eyayenzela uPetru nabo bonke abantu ababeyopheleliswa. Kwakuyile mibuzo emithathu eyahola futhi yakhuthaza uPetru ukufeza indlela yakhe empilweni, futhi kwakuyimibuzo lapho iNkosi uJesu isihamba eyaholela uPetru ukuqala indlela yakhe yokupheleliswa, eyamhola, ngenxa yothando lwakhe lweNkosi, ukunakekela inhliziyo yeNkosi, ukulalela iNkosi, ukunika induduzo eNkosini, kanye nokunikela impilo yakhe yonke kanye nobuyena bonke ngenxa yalolu thando.Ngesikhathi seNkathi Yomusa, umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu wabe ungowezinhlobo ezimbili zabantu okokuqala. Olokuqala kwakuwuhlobo lo muntu owayekholwa Kuye futhi emlandele Yena, owayekwazi ukugcina imiyalelo Yakhe, owayekwazi ukuthwala isiphambano futhi abambelele endleleni yeNkathi Yomusa. Lolu hlobo lo muntu lwaluzothola isibusiso sikaNkulunkulu futhi athokozele umusa kaNkulunkulu. Uhlobo lwesibili lo muntu lwalufana noPetru, umuntu oyopheleliswa. Ngakho, emva kokuba iNkosi uJesu ivusiwe, Yona yenza izinto ezimbili zokuqala ezibalulekile. Eyokuqala yayikuTomase, enye yayikuPetru. Ingabe zimeleni lezi zinto ezimbili? Ingabe zimele izinjongo zikaNkulunkulu zeqiniso zokusindisa isintu? Ingabe zimele ukubaqotho kukaNkulunkulu kubantu? Umsebenzi eyawenza noTomase, kwabe kuwukwexwayisa abantu ukuba bangangabazi, kodwa bakholwe nje. Umsebenzi Eyawenza noPetru kwakuwukuqinisa ukukholwa kwabantu abafana noPetru, kanye nokusho kucace lokho akudingayo kulolu hlobo lo muntu, ukubonisa ukuthi iziphi izinjongo okumele bazifune.Emva kokuba iNkosi uJesu isivukiwe, Yona yaziveza kubantu eyayicabanga ukuthi babalulekile, yakhuluma nabo, yasho eyayikudinga kubona, yabashiya nezinjongo Zayo, kanye nalokho Ekulindele kubantu. Okungukuthi, njengoNkulunkulu othathe isimo sesintu, akusho lutho ukuthi kwakungesikhathi Sayo enyameni, noma emzimbeni womoya emva kokubethelwa esiphambanweni kanye nokuvuswaUkukhathalela Kwayo isintu kanye nalokho ekudingayo kubantu akuguqukanga, Yona yayikhathazekile ngalaba bafundi Bayo ngaphambi kokuba Ibe phezulu esiphambanweni; enhliziyweni Yayo, yayicacelwe ngesimo somuntu ngamunye, Yayiqonda ngokushodayo kumuntu ngamunye, futhi ngempela, ukuqonda Kwayo wonke umuntu emva kokufa, ukuvuswa, kanye nokuba umzimba womoya kwakufana njengoba kwakunjalo ngesikhathi isenyameni. Yona yabe yazi ukuthi abantu babengenasiqiniseko ngobunjalo Bayo njengoKristu, kodwa ngesikhathi Sayo enyameni ayenzanga izimfuno ezinzima kubantu. Kodwa emva kokuba isivusiwe, Yona yayakubo, yabenza baba nesiqiniseko sokuthi iNkosi uJesu yayivele kuNkulunkulu, ukuthi yabe inguNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu, futhi yasebenzisa ukubonakala Kwayo nokuvuka Kwayo njengombono omkhulu kanye nenkuthazo entfunweni yempilo yonke yesintu. Ukuvuka Kwayo ekufeni akuqinisanga kuphela labo abayilandelayo, kodwa yabeka umsebenzi Wayo weNkathi Yomusa ngokupheleleyo ukuze usebenze phakathi kwesintu, kungakho ivangeli lensindiso yeNkosi uJesu ngeNkathi Yomusa lisabalale kuwo wonke amakhona abantu, kancane kancane. Ungasho yini ukuthi ukubonakala kweNkosi uJesu kwakubalulekile? Uma ubunguTomase noma uPetru ngalesiya sikhathi, futhi uhlangabezane nalento eyodwa empilweni yakho eyayibalulekile kakhulu, ingabe yayingaba namuphi umthelela kuwe? Wawungakubona lokhu njengombono omuhle futhi omkhulu kakhulu empilweni yakho yokukholwa kuNkulunkulu? Wawungakubona lokhu njengesikhuthazo sokulandela kwakho uNkulunkulu, sokulwela kwakho ukumenelisa Yena, kanye nokufuna uthando lukaNkulunkulu empilweni yakho? Wawunganikela umzamo wempilo yakho yonke ukusabalalisa lo mbono omkhulukazi? Ubungenza ukusabalalisa insindiso yeNkosi uJesu kube umyalo owamukelayo kuNkulunkulu? Nakuba ningakahlangabezani nalokhu, udaba lukaTomase nolukaPetru lwanele kubantu bamanje ukuba babenokuqonda okucacile ngentando kaNkulunkulu kanye noNkulunkulu. Kungashiwo ukuthi emva kokuba uNkulunkulu ethathe isimo senyama, emva kokuba Yena uqobo ebhekane nempilo phakathi kwesintu kanye nempilo yobuntu, emva kokubona ukonakala kwesintu kanye nesimo sempilo yabantu, uNkulunkulu enyameni wakuzwa ngokujulile ukungabi nakuzisiza, usizi, nokudabukisa kwesintu. UNkulunkulu waba nesihawu kakhulu ngesimo sesintu ngenxa yobuntu Bakhe ngesikhathi Yena ephila enyameni, ngenxa yesazela Sakhe enyameni. Lokhu kwamholela ekubeni nokukhathalela okukhulu abalandeli Bakhe. Lezi izinto cishe ongeke niziqonde, kodwa ngingachaza ukukhathalela nokunakekela kukaNkulunkulu enyameni ngabalandeli Bakhe ngamunye ngalesi sisho: ukukhathalela okunzulu. Nakuba leli gama livela olimini lwabantu, futhi nakuba kuyisisho sabantu, sikhombisa futhi sichaza imizwa kaNkulunkulu ngabalandeli Bakhe. Ngokukhathazeka okukhulu kukaNkulunkulu ngabantu, ngokuhamba kwesikhathi sokubhekana nalezi zinto, niyokuzwa lokhu futhi nikunambithe kancane kancane. Nokho, lokhu kungazuzwa ngokuqonda isimo sikaNkulunkulu kancane kancane ngokufuna uguquko ezimweni zenu. Ukubonakala kweNkosi uJesu kwakhombisa ukukhathalela Kwakhe okukhulu abalandeli Bakhe kubantu futhi kwakudlulisela emzimbeni Wakhe womoya, noma ningathi ubunkulunkulu Bakhe. Ukubonakala Kwakhe kwenza ukuba abantu babone okunye futhi babe nomuzwa wokukhathalela nokunakekela kukaNkulunkulu ngesikhathi futhi ibonisa ukuthi uNkulunkulu uyena ovula inkathi, othuthukisa inkathi, uYena futhi ovala inkathi. Ngokubonakala Kwakhe waqinisa ukukholwa kwabantu bonke, futhi ngokubonakala Kwakhe wafakazela umhlaba ngokuthi unguNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe. Lokhu kwanika abalandeli Bakhe isiqinisekiso esiphakade, futhi ngokubanakekela Kwakhe wavula isigaba somsebenzi Wakhe ngenkathi entsha.13. UJesu Udla Isinkwa Futhi Uchaza Imibhalo Emva Kokuvuka KwakheLuka 24:30-32 Kwathi ehleli nabo esidlweni, wathatha isinkwa, wathandaza wasibonga, wase esihlephula, wabanika. Futhi amehlo abo avuleka, base bemazi; wayesenyamalala kubona. Base bethi omunye komunye, Izinhliziyo zethu bezingavuthi yini phakathi kwethu, ngenkathi ekhuluma kithi endleleni, nalapho esicacisela imibhalo na?14. Abafundi Banika UJesu Inhlanzi Eyosiwe Ukuba AdleLuka 24:36-43 Futhi besakhuluma lokho, uJesu wema phakathi kwabo, wathi kubo, Ukuthula makube kini. Kepha bashaywa uvalo futhi besaba, bethi babona isipoki. Waye sethi kubo, Kungani nikhathazeka na? futhi kungani kuvela imicabango ezinhliziyweni zenu na? Bhekani izandla nezinyawo zami, ukuthi imina uqobo: ngithinteni, nibone, ngokuba isipoki asinayo inyama namathambo, njengoba ningibona mina nginakho. Futhi lapho esekushilo lokho, wababonisa izandlakane nezinyawo zakhe. Futhi bengakakholwa ngenxa yentokozo, kanye nokumangala, wathi kubo, Ninakho okudliwayo lapha na? Bamnika iqatha lenhlanzi ethosiwe nekhekheba lezinyosi. Wakuthatha, futhi wakudla phambi kwabo.Okulandelayo, sizobheka ezindimeni zombhalo ezingenhla. Isiqephu sokuqala sikhuluma ngeNkosi uJesu idla isinkwa futhi ichaza imibhalo emva ngokuvuka Kwakhe, isiqephu sesibili sikhuluma ngeNkosi uJesu idla inhlanzi eyosiwe necwecwe lezinyosi. Ziletha luphi usizo ngokwazi ngesimo sikaNkulunkulu lezi ziqephu ezimbili? Ungacabanga ngohlobo lwesithombe ositholayo kulezi zincazelo zeNkosi uJesu idla isinkwa kanye nenhlanzi eyosiwe? Ungacabanga, uma iNkosi uJesu emi phambi kwakho idla isinkwa, ungazizwa kanjani? Noma uma Yona ingadla nawe etafuleni elilodwa, idla inhlanzi nesinkwa nabantu, wawuzoba nomuzwa onjani ngaleso sikhathi? Uma uzwa ukuthi ubuzoba seduze kakhulu neNkosi, ukuthi isondelene kakhulu nawe, ngakho lo muzwa uyiqiniso. Lokhu isithelo iNkosi uJesu eyayisifuna ukusithela ngokudla isinkwa nenhlanzi phambi kwezinkumbi emva kokuvuka Kwakhe. Ukuba iNkosi uJesu yayikhulume nabantu kuphela emva kokuvuka Kwayo, uma bebengeke bayithinte inyama namathambo Ayo, kodwa bezwe ukuthi inguMoya ongafinyeleleki, babezozizwa kanjani? Bebezojabha? Ngesikhathi abantu bejabhile, bebezozizwa belahliwe? Bebengeke yini bezwe igebe neNkosi uJesu Kristu? Yiluphi uhlobo lomthelela omubi obuzodalwa igebe phakathi kobudlelwano babantu noNkulunkulu? Abantu bebezozizwa benokwesaba, bebengeke basondele Kuye, bebezoba nomqondo wokumgcina ebangeni elihloniphekile. Kusukela lapho, bebezozonda ubudlelwano babo obusondelene neNkosi uJesu Kristu, bese bebuyela ebudlelwanweni phakathi kwesintu noNkulunkulu osezulwini, njengoba kwakunjalo ngaphambi kweNkathi Yomusa. Umzimba womoya abantu ababengeke bawuthinte noma bawuzwe uholela ekuqedeni ukusondelana noNkulunkuluowasimamiswa ngesikhathi senkathi yeNkosi uJesu esenyameni, igebe lingekho phakathi Kwakhe nabantulime ukuba khona. Imizwa yabantu mayelana nomzimba womoya kuwukwesaba kuphela, ukugwema, kanye nokugqolozela okungenamazwi. Abacabangi ukusondela eduze, ukuzoxoxisa Naye, ukumethemba, noma ukuba nethemba Kuye. UNkulunkulu wayengabaza ukubona lolu hlobo lo muzwa ababenawo abantu Ngaye. Wayengathandi ukubona abantu bemziba noma bezisusa Kuye, Yena wayefuna abantu bamqonde Yena, basondele Kuye futhi babe umndeni Wakhe. Uma umndeni wakho, abantwana bakho bekubona kodwa bengakukhumbuli, futhi bengezi eduze kwakho kodwa behlala bekuziba, uma ungazuzanga ukuqonda kwabo ngazo zonke izinto obenzele zona, lokhu kungakwenza uzizwe kanjani? Ngeke yini kube buhlungu? Angeke yini wephuke inhliziyo? Ilokhu impela uNkulunkulu akuzwayo uma abantu Bemziba. Ngakho, emva kokuvuka Kwayo, iNkosi uJesu yabonakala kubantu eyisimo senyama negazi, wadla futhi waphuza nabo. UNkulunkulu ubona abantu njengomndeni futhi ufuna isintu simbone ngale ndlela, kukule ndlela kuphela lapho uNkulunkulu engathola khona abantu, futhi lapho abantu bengakwazi ukuthanda nokukhonza uNkulunkulu ngeqiniso. Manje usuyaqonda yini injongo yami ngokunyomula lezi ziqephu ezimbili zombhalo lapho iNkosi uJesu idla isinkwa futhi ichaza imibhalo, abafundi Bayo bayinika inhlanzi eyosiwe necwecwe lezinyosi ukuba idle emva kokuvuka Kwayo?Kungashiwo ukuthi lezi zinto eziluchungechunge ezashiwo futhi zenziwa yiNkosi uJesu emva kokuvuka Kwayo zazinomqondo, futhi zenziwe ngezinjongo ezinomusa. Babegcwele umusa nothando uNkulunkulu analo ngabantu, babegcwele ukwazisa nokunakekela okunokucophelela Eyayinakho ngobudlelwano obusondele Eyayibumisile nesintu ngesikhathi Sayo isenyameni. Ikakhulukazi, babegcwele inkumbulo ngokwasekudlule kanye nethemba Eyayinalo ngempilo yokudla nokuphila nabalandeli Bayo ngesikhathi Sakhe esenyameni. Ngakho, uNkulunkulu wayengafuni abantu bezwe igebe phakathi kukaNkulunkulu nabantu, futhi wayengafuni isintu siziqhelelanise noNkulunkulu. Ikakhulukazi, Yena wayengafuni isintu sizwe ukuthi iNkosi uJesu emva kokuvuka yayingaseyona iNkosi esondelene kakhulu nabantu, ukuthi Yayingasekho kanye nesintu ngoba Yabuyela emhlabeni wakwamoya, Yabuyela kuBaba owayengabonwa futhi engafinyelelwa ngabantu. Yona Yayingafuni abantu bezwe ukuthi kwakunomehluko ngokwezikhundla phakathi Kwayo nesintu. Uma uNkulunkulu ebona abantu abafuna Ukuyilandela kodwa Bayigcine kude ngenxa yenhlonipho, inhliziyo Yayo iba bobuhlungu ngoba kusho ukuthi izinhliziyo zabo zikude kakhulu Nayo, kusho ukuthi kuyoba nzima kakhulu Kuyo ukuzuza izinhliziyo zabo. Ngakho uma Ibibonakale kubantu ngomzimba womoya abangawuboni futhi abangawuthinti, nalokhu futhi kwakuzomqhelelanisa umuntu noNkulunkulu, futhi kwakuzoholela isintu ukubona uKristu ngephutha emva kokuvuka Kwakhe ngokuthi wayesephenduke waba nempakamo, yohlobo oluhlukile kunabantu, futhi umuntu owayengeke esakwazi ukuhlala etafuleni adle nomuntu ngoba abantu bagcwele izono, bangcolile, futhi abasoze bakwazi ukusondelane noNkulunkulu. Ukuze kususwe lokhu kungaqondisisi kwesintu, INkosi uJesu yenza izinto eziningi eyayivamise ukuzenza enyameni, njengoba kulotshiwe eBhayibhelini, wathatha isinkwa, wathandaza wasibonga, wase esihlephula, wabanika. Yachaza futhi imibhalo kubo, njengoba yayikade ijwayele ukwenza. Konke lokhu iNkosi uJesu eyakwenza, kwenza ukuba wonke umuntu owayibona ezwe ukuthi iNkosi uJesu ayikaguquki, ukuthi iseyiNkosi uJesu efanayo. Nakuba yayikade ibethelwe esiphambanweni futhi yayidlulile ekufeni, Yona yayivusiwe, futhi yayingakasishiyi isintu. Yayibuyile ukuba phakathi kwabantu, futhi konke okwayo kwakungakaguquki. INdodana yomuntu emi phambi kwabantu yayiseyiNkosi uJesu efanayo. Ukuziphatha Kwayo nokukhuluma Kwayo nabantu kwezwakala kufana. Yayesagcwele uthando, umusa, kanye nokubekezelelanaYena wayeseyileyo Nkosi uJesu ethanda abanye njengalokhu izithanda Yona, ingathethelela isintu kamashumi ayisikhombisa aphindwe kasikhombisa. Njengemihla, Yadla nabantu, Yaxoxisana nabo ngemibhalo, okubalukekile, ngendlela efana neyasekuqaleni, Yayenziwe ngenyama negazi, ithinteka futhi ibonakala. INdodana yomuntu ngale ndlela yavumela abantu ukuba bazizwele besondelene Nayo, bakhululeke, bezwe intokozo yokuzuza okuthile obekulahlekile, bezwa futhi kulula ukuba bangancika ngesibindi nangokuze themba futhi babheke eNdodaneni yomuntu eyayingathethelela izono zesintu. Baqala futhi ukukhuleka egameni leNkosi uJesu ngaphandle kokungabaza, bakhulekela ukuthola umusa, izibusiso Zayo, ukuthola ukuthula nenjabulo evela Kuyo, ukuzuza ukunakekelwa nokuvikelwa Yiyo, futhi baqala ukuphilisa nokuxosha amademoni egameni leNkosi uJesu.Ngesikhathi iNkosi uJesu isebenza enyameni, abalandeli Bayo abaningi babengakwazi ukufakazela ubunjalo Bayo kanye nezinto Ezishilo. Ngesikhathi inyukela esiphambanweni, umqondo wabalandeli Bayo wawulindele okunye; ngesikhathi Yona ibethelwa esiphambanweni indlela yonke kuze kufike lapho ingena ethuneni, umqondo wabantu Ngayo wawuphoxekile. Ngesikhathi iNdodana yomuntu isebenza enyameni, ngalesi sikhathi abantu base beqalile ezinhliziyweni zabo ukusuka ekungabazeni baya ekuphikeni izinto ezishiwo iNkosi uJesu ngesikhathi Sayo isenyameni. Ngesikhathi iphuma ethuneni, futhi ibonakala kubantu ngabanye ngabanye, iningi labantu Ababeyibonile ngamehlo abo noma bezwa izindaba zokuvuka Kwayo, baqala futhi kancane ukusuka ekuyiphikeni baya ekungabazeni. Ngalesi sikhathi iNkosi uJesu ithi kuTomase makafake isandla sakhe ohlangothini, ngesikhathi iNkosi uJesu ihlephula isinkwa idla phambi kwesixuku emva kokuvuka Kwayo, futhi emva kwalokho yadla inhlanzi eyosiwe necwecwe lezinyosi phambi kwabo, kungalesi sikhathi kuphela lapho baqala ukwamukela ukuthi iNkosi uJesu inguKristu enyameni. Ningasho nithi kwakungathi lo mzimba womoya onenyama negazi omi phambi kwalabo bantu, wawuvusa ngamunye wabo ephusheni: INdodana yomuntu emi phambi kwabo kwakuyileyo eyayikade ikhona kusukela ngesikhathi sakudala. Yona yayinesimo, inenyama negazi, futhi yayisiphilile futhi idlile kanye nesintu isikhathi eside... Ngalesi sikhathi, abantu bazizwela ukuthi ubukhona Bayo babungobempela, bumangalisa kakhulu; futhi babe nentokozo kanye nenjabulo, ngesikhathi esifanayo, futhi begcwele uzwelo. Ukubonakala Kwayo futhi kwenza ukuba abantu babone ngokweqiniso ukuthobeka Kwayo, bezwe ukuba seduze Kwayo, nokulangazelela Kwayo, ukunamathela Kwayo esintwini. Lokhu kuhlangana futhi okufushane kwenza abantu ababona iNkosi uJesu bezwe sengathi isikhathi sonke sokuphila sasidlulile. Ukulahleka, ukudideka, ukwesaba, ukukhathazeka, ukulangazelela kanye nezinhliziyo ezingasenamuzwa zathola induduzo. Babengasangabazi noma babengasa dumele ngoba bezwa ukuthi manje kwase kunethemba kanye nento ababengathembela kuyo. INdodana yomuntu emi phambi kwabo, izohlala ima nabo ingunaphakade, Yena uzoba umbhoshongo wabo onamandla, umpheme wabo wempilo yabo yonke.Nakuba isikhathi seNkosi uJesu sokusebenza enyameni sasigcwele ubunzima nokuhlupheka, ngokubonakala Kwayo emzimbeni Wayo womoya wenyama negazi, ngokugcwele nangokuphelele, Yona yafeza umsebenzi Wayo wangaleso sikhathi enyameni ukuze ihlenge isintu. Yaqala inkonzo Yayo ngokuba senyameni, kodwa yabe isiphetha inkonzo Yayo ngokubonakala esintwini ngesimo Sayo senyama. Yamemezela iNkathi Yomusa, Yaqala iNkathi Yomusa ngobunjalo Bayo njengoKristu.
