Ukukhula ngokomoya kwenzeka lapho ufisa ubisi lweZwi

Ngakho lahlani ububi bonke, nobuqili bonke, nokuzenzisa, nomhawu, nokuhleba konke; 2njengezingane ezisand' ukuzalwa langazelelani ubisi olungokomoya olungenakonakala, ukuze nikhule ngalo kube ngukusindiswa, 

1 kaPetru 2: 1-2

Ukukhula ngokomoya kwenzeka lapho ufisa ubisi lweZwi oluhlanzekile njengomntwana osanda kuzalwa efisa ubisi. Umntwana ngokuyisisekelo ufisa ubisi, futhi yilokho. Eqinisweni, abanandaba nokunye okuningi ngaphandle kobisi. Yilokho kuphila okukodwa okuphawuleka kakhulu futhi okuyingqayizivele. 

Njengoba umntwana ekhula, ukuphila kuba nzima nakakhulu. Akuselona ubisi nje; akusekho ukudla nje. Kodwa uPetru uthi uma ufuna ukukhula, udinga ukubekela eceleni konke okunye. Udinga ukubekela eceleni bonke ububi noma ububi, nanoma yini eyinkohliso. Beka eceleni noma yikuphi ukuzenzisa, umona, noma yikuphi ukukhuluma okubi. Zikhumule zonke lezo zinto ezingalungile futhi ugxile entweni eyodwa—ubisi olumsulwa lweZwi. Yilokho inselele. 

Uma ufuna ukukhula uqine okholweni, udinga ukugxila kuphela ekufiseni ubisi olumsulwa lweZwi. Ngaso sonke isikhathi uma uthola ithuba lokuphuza lolo bisi, kufanele uphuthume ukuze wanelise. Uzokhula kanjalo.

 Izithelo zikaMoya

Kepha izithelo zikaMoya ziluthando, nokujabula, nokuthula, nokubekezela, nobubele, nobuvi, nokukholeka, nobumnene, nokuzithiba. Akukho mthetho omelana nokunjalo. 

KwabaseGalathiya 5:22-23

Lombhalo usitshela ukuthi lapho uMoya oNgcwele elawula ngokugcwele impilo yakho, yilokhu ozoba yikho. Lezi zici eziyisishiyagalolunye zixhumene, futhi isithelo esikhiqizwayo yileli phakheji. Kufana nesihlahla esithela izinhlobo eziyisishiyagalolunye zezithelo. Uma sihamba ngoMoya, kuzoba nothando lwe-agape, oluwuthando lwentando. 

Akulona uthando lomzwelo noma ukukhangwa ngokomzimba noma isibopho somndeni. Uthando lokuzidela ngamabomu. Futhi kuyoba khona ukwaneliseka okujulile kwenjabulo kanye nokuzola kwangaphakathi kokuthula okuvela kuMoya kaNkulunkulu owengamele yonke into. Kuyoba khona ukubekezela noma ukubekezela kokubekezelela ukucasuka nobunzima, kanye nomusa noma ukukhathalela okunesisa ngabanye. 

Kuyoba khona ubuhle, ubuhle bokuziphatha nangokomoya. Kuyoba khona ukwethembeka, ukwethembeka, nokwethembeka. Futhi kuyoba khona ubumnene noma ukuthobeka nokuzithiba, ukubamba izinkanuko. UPawulu uyanezela ukuthi “awukho umthetho omelene nabanjalo.” Noma ngabe ubunomthetho wangaphandle, ubungeke uphoqe umuntu ukuthi abe nalolu hlobo lomlingiswa. Awukwazi ukusebenzisa umthetho ukukhiqiza lokhu. 

Lesi sithelo sigeleza siphuma ngaphakathi kuphela ngenkonzo kaMoya oNgcwele. Ngakho-ke kufanele sibonge kangakanani ngalowoMoya owenza izimangaliso, futhi kufanele sikulangazelele kangakanani ukubonakalisa lesosithelo njengoba sihamba ngokulalela iZwi laKhe elambuliwe!

 Izibusiso zikaNkulunkulu zithululelwa phezu kwethu

Makabongwe uNkulunkulu uYise weNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu owabuye wasizala kabusha ngokwesihawu sakhe esikhulu ukuba sibe nethemba eliphilileyo ngokuvuka kukaJesu Kristu kwabafileyo, 4sibe nefa elingapheliyo, nelingenasisihla, nelingabuniyo, eniligcinelwe ezulwini; 

1 kaPetru 1:3-4

Kulo lonke iTestamente Elidala, uNkulunkulu unamagama amaningana. ETestamenteni Elisha, kakhulukazi “unguNkulunkulu noYise weNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu.” Uhlanganyela ukuphila okungokomoya kanye nokuphila okuphakade, isimo esibalulekile esifana nesikaJesu Kristu. 

Usephinde wasizala ethembeni eliphilayo njengoba sibeka ithemba lethu kuJesu Kristu. Kodwa konke uNkulunkulu akuhlelele labo abangabakhe akukakabi okwethu. Ngakho siphila ethembeni, ithemba eliphilayo lokuphila okuphakade, ngoba uKristu wavuka kwabafileyo. Ngakho siphila ngokukholwa. 

Siphila namuhla phakathi kwezibusiso zikaNkulunkulu ezithululelwa phezu kwethu, kodwa kukhona iqiniso elikhazimulayo eliseza phambi kwethu. Futhi uPetru wabe esenezela ukuthi sinefa elingenakonakala—elingeke linqanyulwe, elingenabala. Ayikho ngaphansi kwanoma yikuphi ukukhubazeka noma ukuphazamiseka noma ukufiphala. 

Kodwa, kunalokho, ligcinwe liphelele kukho konke ukugcwala kwalo, bonke ubumsulwa balo, yonke inkazimulo yalo ezulwini ngenxa yethu. Ngakho-ke asigcini nje ngokujabulela lokho uJehova asenzele kona manje, kodwa ithemba lethu seligxilile ngosuku lapho ifa liba ngokoqobo lapho singena ezulwini.

 UNkulunkulu wenza okuwukuphela komuntu owayengasazi isono ukuba abe yisono ngenxa yethu

Ongasazanga isono wamenza isono ngenxa yethu, ukuze kuyena senziwe sibe ngukulunga kukaNkulunkulu. 

2 Corinthians 5:21

Amagama ayishumi nanhlanu esiGrekini sokuqala kuleli vesi aveza imfundiso yokushintshanisa njengelinye ivesi elilodwa eBhayibhelini. UNkulunkulu wenza okuwukuphela komuntu owayengasazi isono, iNkosi uJesu Kristu, ukuba abe yisono ngenxa yethu. Abanye abantu benza iphutha lokucabanga ukuthi lokhu kusho ukuthi uJesu waba yisoni—ukuthi, esiphambanweni, empeleni wajeziswa ngoba eyisoni. 

Iqiniso liwukuthi, esiphambanweni, uJesu wayengcwele njengoba ayenjalo phakade ngaphambili noma phakade kamuva. Esiphambanweni, uNkulunkulu waphatha uJesu njengokungathi wazenza mathupha zonke izono ezake zenziwa yibo bonke abantu abayoke bakholwe, nokho, eqinisweni, akenzanga nesisodwa sazo. UNkulunkulu wabeka isijeziso sezono zethu phezu kweNdodana engenasono. Ivesi lonke lithi “sibe ngukulunga kukaNkulunkulu kuye.” Lokho ngolunye uhlangothi lokushintshwa. UNkulunkulu waphatha uJesu njengesoni ukuze asiphathe njengokungathi silungile. 

Wayengesona isoni, futhi nathi asilungile. Lokho esikhundleni. Wagcwalisa konke ukulunga ukuze ukuphila Kwakhe okungenasono kubalwe kuwe. 

Kuyamangalisa kakhulu, akunjalo? Esiphambanweni, uNkulunkulu uphatha uJesu njengokungathi waphila impilo yakho ukuze akuphathe sengathi uphila impilo Yakhe. Leyo yinhliziyo yevangeli.

 Sihlengiwe ngegazi eliyigugu likaKristu

nazi ukuthi anihlengwanga ekuhambeni kwenu okuyize enakunikezwa ngawoyihlo ngezinto ezibhubhayo, isiliva negolide, kodwa ngegazi elinqabileyo likaKristu kungathi elewundlu elingenacala, elingenabala; 

1 kaPetru 1:18-19

Ukuhlengwa kuwumqondo omuhle kakhulu. I-Redemption kwakuyigama lobuchwepheshe lemali ekhokhelwa ukubuyisela isiboshwa sempi. Inomqondo wokukhokha isihlengo sokukhulula othile. Sasidinga ukukhululwa empilweni engenamsebenzi, engenanjongo eyadluliselwa ngosiko kobaba bethu. 

Sasidinga ukukhululwa kulokho ngoba indlela yezwe iyindlela yokufa nokwahlulelwa. Sihlengiwe ngegazi eliyigugu likaKristu. Nguye kuphela owayengumhlatshelo owamukelekayo kuNkulunkulu owakhokha inani lezono zethu. 

Futhi uvezwa njengeWundlu elingenasici nelingenabala ngoba kulo lonke iTestamente Elidala yonke imihlatshelo yezilwane enikelwa njengeminikelo yesono kuNkulunkulu yonke yayibheke phambili ekufikeni kweNkosi uJesu Kristu, owayeyoba iwundlu lokugcina. 

Kungakho ngokushesha ngemva kokufa Kwakhe idolobha laseJerusalema labhujiswa amaRoma ngo-70 A.D., futhi ngalokho kubhujiswa, yonke inqubo yemihlatshelo yaphela. Kuze kube namuhla alikaze libe khona ithempeli noma indawo yomhlatshelo, futhi alikho elidingekayo ngoba uJesu wayengumhlatshelo wokugcina.
