Uthando lukaThixo-Uzipho Lokhozi | I-CD yeNtshumayelo kaNeal Frisby #1002 | 05/23/1984

Inkosi izisikelele iintliziyo zenu. Ngaba uziva wonwabile ngokwenene ngokuhlwanje? Uyamangalisa ngokwenene! Ngaba akunjalo? Ubukho beNkosi buyinto ephilayo. Ngaba awuyazi? Iphila ngakumbi kunathi. Nkosi, siyakuthanda ngobu busuku kwaye siyakholelwa ukuba uza kuhambela phambili abantu bakho. Inkonzo nganye oyincedayo; Uyasakha isiseko, sona isiseko esomeleleyo, Nkosi, sokholo nothando. Usebenza kubantu bakho, ubazisa, Nkosi, ukuze babe nokulungela wena wakufika. Chukumisa imizimba ngobu busuku. Siyalela ukugula neentlungu ukuba zimke. Abo badinga usindiso, sifuna ukuba isandla sakho esinothando sibe phezu kwabo ngobu busuku, sibacenge, kuba ixesha lifutshane. Lixesha lokuba singene sikhonze iNkosi uYesu. Nika iNkosi uqhwabe izandla!

Mamela oku ngokuhlwanje. Lo [myalezo] unokuvakala unzima ngamanye amaxesha ngathi uyatsiba, kodwa akunjalo. Iya kuhlangana kuba ndiyazi indlela iNkosi eqala ngayo ukuhamba.

Uthando olungcwele kunye nozipho lweKhozi: ngoku uthi, "Zidibene ngantoni ezi zimbini?" Siza kufumanisa ngaphambi kokuba sigqibe. Ngoku isithako esifunyenwe kulo myalezo sinqabile. Ndifuna ukuba uyimamele ngokusondeleyo: Umonde—uthando luzeka kade umsindo. Uthe mandiyishumayele lento ngokuhlwanje. Ngelixa ndandisemthandazweni wam-uyabona, kufika imiyalezo, kwaye une-atmosphere kwaye Uya kushukuma kuba kukho umntu odinga loo myalezo. Akunjalo kuphela, xa umntu eyidinga, abanye bayayidinga. Amen?

Ngoko sifumanisa apha: Umonde—uthando lunyamezela ixesha elide. Luthwala izinto zonke. Lukholwa zizinto zonke. Lithemba izinto zonke. Ngoku singena nzulu kwimfihlelo namandla kaThixo. Qaphela "zonke" kuzo zonke ezo zinto. I-Charity inika umntu amandla okuba nomonde xa yonke into ingahambi kakuhle. Wonke umntu olapha, kuquka nam ebomini bam, ngaxesha lithile xa kubonakala ngathi usencamini yencakuba kwaye …okanye kukho into eza kwenzeka kuwe, kodwa ngamandla kaThixo ayizukwenzeka rhoqo. UThixo uyakubamba. Uya kukugcina. Ke, [isisa] inika umntu amandla okuzigcina ezolile kwaye ezithembile xa abanye bezakuphulukana nesikhundla sabo kunye nokulinganisela. Kuya kunceda umntu ukukhwela ngaphezulu koku. Kuphela kwento enokuyenza.

Uthando luzama ukubona okulungileyo kuwo onke amaKristu; nakwabanye ehlabathini, ibona okulungileyo. Kubulungiseleli bam—amandla okholo athe wandinika wona, imfesane yawo, nohlobo lokholo olusentliziyweni yam, nokuba imeko injani na kwaye nokuba abanye abantu bacinga ntoni na ngabantu abathile behlabathi—into ethile engaphakathi kum kwaye ndiyazi ukuba nguMoya oyiNgcwele, ukhangela kwaye uzama ukubona into elungileyo. Ndiyakholwa ukuba amandla okholo lwam angayitshintsha [imeko]. Yiyo loo nto ndinje. Ukuba bendingenjalo, ukholo lwam belungayi komelela njengoko lunjalo, kodwa ndiyakholelwa ukuba xa abanye bengaboni nto ilungileyo kwabanye abantu okanye kumaKristu athile, amandla othando lobuthixo ahlala ade uThixo enze okuthile ngako. . [Uthando] lubona indlela xa kungekho mntu ubona indlela.

Yona [uthando lobuthixo] ikholelwa kuyo yonke ibhayibhile kwaye izama ukubona okulungileyo kuye wonke umntu nangona ngeliso nangendlebe, kwaye ngaloo ndlela yokujonga, awuboni nto. Olu luhlobo olunzulu lothando nokholo lobuthixo. Luzeka kade umsindo—luzeka kade umsindo kulo. Ubulumko luthando lobuthixo. Uthando olungcwele lubona amacala omabini engxoxo, Amen, kwaye lusebenzisa ubulumko. UYosefu wababona abakhuluwa bakhe; xa kungekho mntu wayengaboni nto ilungileyo kuloo makhwenkwe—ndithetha ukuba ayeziindlavini. Abanye babo babengababulali. Bamcaphukisa uyise. Kwakukho abavukeli phakathi kwabo, yabona; akukho thando lukaThixo. UYakobi kwafuneka akunyamezele konke oku, kodwa uYosefu ngenxa yothando lobuthixo wabona okuthile okulungileyo apho. Uthando lwakhe lobuthixo lwabatsalela kuye abo bazalwana kwakhona lwaza lwatsalela uyise kuye kwakhona. Yayingamanzi anzongonzongo, ebiza amanzi anzongonzongo; UYakobi owalupheleyo wayemthanda uYosefu yaye uYosefu wayethanda uYakobi. Aba babini badibana kwakhona. Uzuko! Haleluya!

Akakho umntu owayenokwenza okulungileyo kuloo makhwenkwe; uyise ebengenako, kodwa uYosefu wabafumana ngenxa yobudenge abenaso. Uyazi ukuba wayenokunqwenela ukugoduka aye kubabona, kodwa wahlala eYiputa. ukuzeka kade umsindo—kuba uThixo wamyalela ukuba [ahlale eYiputa]. Ndiya kubazisa ngexesha elifanelekileyo. Oko ukuzeka kade umsindo kwabatsalela kanye kuye kwaza kwabalula ngelo xesha kwaza kwababeka endleleni ekungekho bani unokuyibeka.

UAdam noEva emva kokona—emva kokuhamba noThixo yonke imihla emyezweni—ngubani owayenokubona nantoni na elungileyo apho? UThixo wenjenjalo. Amen. Wabona okulungileyo, ukuzeka kade umsindo, uthando olungcwele, kwaye namhlanje, kuloo nto kuyakuphuma ibandla, umtshakazi weNkosi uYesu Kristu. Wabona okulungileyo apho wonke umntu ebeya kubona okungalunganga. Kanjalo, kuNowa, Wabona okulungileyo. Walitshabalalisa ihlabathi kodwa uNowa. Kwakukho okulungileyo [kuNowa].

UYesu emnqamlezweni: Akukho bani wayenokubona okulungileyo. Babefuna ukumbulala. Wabuya wavuka. Kodwa noko, wayebona okulungileyo. Wathi, Bawo, baxolele, kuba abayazi into abayenzayo. Wafuna amaYuda ngothando nangokuzeka kade umsindo kobuthixo. Abanye babo baya kuphuma. Abanye babo baya kusindiswa yaye abanye babo baya kuba sezulwini kunye naye. Wajonga isela emnqamlezweni ngokuzeka kade umsindo kwakhe wathi, “Namhlanje uya kuba nam eParadesi.” ( Luka 23:43 ) 'Yabona; ababonanga nto ilungileyo kwisela; bamkhwelisa apho [emnqamlezweni]. Kodwa uThixo wabona okulungileyo. Uthando lubona zonke izinto, luthemba izinto zonke.

UYesu esiza equleni. Akubangakho namnye kuloo mzi umhlonelayo lo mfazi; Babethetha ngaye ngalo lonke ixesha, yaye mhlawumbi babenesizathu esivakalayo sokuthetha ngaye. Ukanti, uYesu weza kumfazi osequleni. Nangona, wazenza zonke ezo zinto zimbi, kodwa Yena wabona okulungileyo [kuye]. Olo thando lobuthixo lwamtsalela [kuye]. Entliziyweni yakhe ebefuna ukuphuma kobo bugqwirha nakukungcola akubo kodwa wabona kungekho ndlela. Kwakukho indlela kunye noMesiya. Waya kwintliziyo eyayitsalwe ngaphandle kwimeko [ekuyo], kwaye ngolo thando lobuthixo nokuzeka kade umsindo kunye naye, Wema ngasequleni. Wathi, Thabatha kula manzi kwaye awusayi kuphinda unxanwe. 'Yabona; Wamnikela usindiso xa kungekho bani wayenokumenzela nto, kodwa wamgibisela ngamatye, wamkhuphela ngaphandle kwesixeko waza wamphosa ecaleni. Kwafuneka eze equleni xa wonke umntu engasekho kuba wayengumfazi odume kakubi. Wayengasenakuphinda axube, kodwa uYesu wayeza kuxubana. Amen? UYesu wabona okulungileyo [kuye].

'Yabona; ukuzeka kade umsindo. Uthando luthemba iinto zonke, lukholwa zizinto zonke. Kanye apho, ekholelwa kwizinto zonke, ubona into elungileyo, ekhangele kuyo yonke imzuzu. Ke, siyayingqina eBhayibhileni loo nto xa baphosa umfazi owayekrexezile [ezinyaweni zikaYesu]—naye wayengazange ayive ivangeli. Xa babeza kumxuluba ngamatye, uYesu wamxolela. Wabhala emhlabeni ngezono zabo baza bemka. Akukho namnye wayenako ukubona okulungileyo kulo mfazi konke konke, kodwa uYesu wathi: “Mnike ithuba, ubone ukuba kuya kwenzeka ntoni na.” Ngoko, Wamamkela umfazi waza wamxolela. Uthando lubona okulungileyo kuzo zonke izinto. Amen? UPawulos wayibhala; ungawunikela umzimba wakho ube lidini eliphilileyo [ukutshiswa] nazo zonke ezo zinto. kodwa ngaphandle kolwa thando luzeka kade umsindo, yingxolo enkulu.

Ngoku, sihla siye komnye umlinganiselo. UThixo wazisa ngaphambili ngamaphiko okhozi—Wavelisa abantwana Bakhe. Wathi njengokhozi ngamaphiko alo, Wabakhupha eYiputa (Eksodus 19:4). Babebubutyebi obukhethekileyo kuYe. Uthando lwakhe olukhulu lobuthixo lwabona okulungileyo nangona esinye isizukulwana siya kucinywa, esinye siphume apho, kwaye siya kuwela. Amaphiko okhozi kuSirayeli neenzipho zalo—ukuba uthando lobuthixo lunyamezele uSirayeli. Wazivakalisa ngokwaKhe. Ubusazi ukuba Wayebizwa ngokuba ngoKhozi? Ukhozi luneentsipho ezikwazi ukubamba. Yakuba ilibambile elo xhoba, akunakwenzeka ukuba lilikhuphe likhulule apho [ukubamba]. Wabazisa ngamaphiko oKhozi waza wababamba ngesandla saKhe waza uFaro wayengenako ukubathabatha-uthando lobuThixo.

Uthando olungcwele kunye nozipho lweKhozi: Kukubamba. Ayijiki lula xa [enoba] ithandazela abo badinga usindiso, ithandazela abo basendleleni, ithandazela ababo abantwana nehlabathi. Abanye oomama banozipho lokhozi xa bethandazela abantwana babo; siya kungena kuloo nto kamva. Lo [myalezo] ukhokelela kwindlela iNkosi efuna ukuba ibandla libe ngayo kunye nendlela enokunceda ngayo ibandla. Phulaphula; inika umdla kakhulu. Uzipho lwakhe alujiki lula. Hayi indlela yokubamba! Uyifumene; Ukuthanda kwakhe kuya kuzaliseka. Amen? Oko kubamba kukumaYuda, i-144,00 eya kuhlanganisana kwaSirayeli. Ekupheleni kwexesha, loo Claw yoKhozi iya kuba kunye nomtshakazi kwaye ibathabathele phezulu njengokhozi. Wazibiza ngokuba nguKhozi. – kanye kwi-Eagle's Wings. Xa olo thando luqinile luqinile, akunakwenzeka ukuba bahlulwe [umtshakazi] esandleni sikaBawo. UYesu wathi ngokwakhe (Yohane 10:28 & 29). Amen? Olunjani lona uthando lobuthixo!

Ngamanye amaxesha, indlela athi namaKristu anyuliweyo-indlela azenza ngayo, uthi, "Baye baphumelela njani kuyo yonke loo nto?" Uthando lobuThixo, ukuzeka kade umsindo kuba uyazi ukuba bayinyama yomntu. Uyalwazi udongwe; Uyayazi into Awayidalayo. Uyazi ukuba ngoobani na abanyuliweyo. Uyawazi onke amagama abhaliweyo encwadini yobomi. Uyazi ngokuchanekileyo into Ayenzayo. 'Yabona; Ukuthanda ngaphezu kokuba ubusazi. Mhlawumbi, into eyavelisa lo [myalezo], ndiyakholwa, kukuba ngobunye ubusuku, ndandithandazela abagulayo. INkosi yathetha ngendlela uthando lwaYo olwadlula ngayo olo lomzali ongumntu.

Ke sifumanisa kwibhayibhile, kukho umzekeliso kwaye ungonyana wolahleko owayefuna lonke ilifa lakhe. Wayefuna ukuphuma aye kuyiphila loo nto. Uyise umele uBawo ongentla. Kwakukho oonyana ababini. Ibhayibhile yatsho, unyana omncinci waphuma ephila ngokuzibhubhisa. Wachitha yonke into awayenayo waza wagqiba ukutya ukutya kweehagu. Wathi, ndingcono kunale ekhaya. Ayingombono ulungileyo lo emva koko. ” Ngamanye amaxesha, abantu kufuneka badlule kuzo zonke ezo zinto ngaphambi kokuba bavuke baze babone oko uThixo abanika kona. Wathi umfana, ndigoduke. Amen. Wafika ekhaya, waxelela uyise, esithi, Ndonile kuwo amazulu, nasemehlweni akho. Wavuma. Uyise wavuya gqitha—unyana wolahleko ebuyela ekhaya. Wathi makathabathe ithole elityetyisiweyo, amnxibise owona msesane. Unyana wakhe obelahlekile ufunyenwe. Uyazi, enye inkwenkwe eyayihlala apho yayizenza ilungisa. Lo mzekeliso umela uthando lukabawo kumoni kunye nothando lukaYise kumoni. Uzipho lukaKhozi lwambuyisela ekhaya. Ungathi, Amen?

Yacaphuka enye inkwenkwe, yathi: “Akuzange undenze zonke ezo zinto mna, yaye yonke into ebinayo idliwe ngamahenyukazi namahenyukazi. Uyichithe yonke imali yakhe kwaye bendilapha ekhaya. Uyise uthe unam, ukanti ulahlekile, ubuyile ekhaya. Uyazi, lo mzekeliso awuthethi ngokuchanekileyo ngezizwe, kodwa ndakhe ndawubona umela uSirayeli ebuyela ekhaya kwakhona, Amen? Ezinye [izizwe] zama-Arabhu zathi, “Andiyithandi loo nto”—loo mzalwana ungomnye. Bona [amaYuda] bathi saa kulo lonke ihlabathi. Ngoku, babuyele ekhaya kwilizwe labo lokuzalwa. Ngumzekeliso omele i-US-ukususela kwimigaqo yokusekwa kwesi sizwe. Ngoku, njengonyana wolahleko, baye baphambuka bangena kuzo zonke iintlobo zobudikidiki nezono. Abangcwele bembandezelo, abaninzi babo bayakungena njengentlabathi yolwandle.

Uyazi, sithetha ngomzekeliso wonyana wolahleko, ikwamele iintombi zolahleko eziziyolisa eMiami, eRiviera, eParis okanye naphi na apho ziya khona. Ikwathetha nabo. Baphila ubomi babo ngechampagne naphakathi kwabantu njalo njalo besenza izono. Intombi yolahleko inokuza nayo. Amen? Ngoko lo mzekeliso ubonisa ntoni? Ibonisa uthando olungcwele lukaBawo osezulwini kubantwana Bakhe abakreqileyo okanye uthando lwakhe ngomoni. Umkhulu! Uyavuya xa umntu [umoni okanye umkreqi] efika ekhaya. Ndikuxelela ntoni; ukuba bendingumfazi esonweni, bendingathanda ukufakwa kulo mzekeliso. Wenze izinto ezinkulu. Bangaphi kuni abanokuthi, dumisani iNkosi?

Ndibabonile abantu ukuba uThixo wabandezeleka ixesha elide kunye nabo. Ebomini bam njengomfana, nakubomi babanye, Ndambona ebandezeleka ixesha elide kunye nabo. Uyazibona iinceba Zakhe zobuThixo kunye neenceba zakhe. Olo thando lobuthixo lubandezeleka ixesha elide mhlawumbi iminyaka eli-10 okanye eli-15 kwaye ke umntu uya kubuyela eNkosini uYesu aze angene. Sibona uMpostile uPawulosi; akwabakho namnye wabona okulungileyo kuye, phakathi kwabapostile nakubafundi. Bambona ekhokelela abantu ukuba bamxulube ngamatye. Bambona ebafaka entolongweni. Wathi, “Ndalitshutshisa ibandla. Ndingoyena mncinanana kubo bonke abangcwele, nakuba ndingoyena ubalaseleyo kubapostile. Babengaboni nto ilungileyo kuPawulos. Kanti, iNkosi uYesu, uzipho loKhozi, uPawulos wayengenako ukumka kuYo. Amen. Wabona into elungileyo kuPawulos waza wamfumana. Amen? Kubomi bam njengomfana, mhlawumbi unokuthi akaphileli uThixo phayaa ehlabathini ngolu hlobo, ngaphambi kokuba ndibe ngumKristu. Kodwa uThixo wabona into abantu ababengayiboni. Uzipho Lokhozi; Ebengandiyeki.

Uthando lobuthixo; Ndicinga ukuba kuhle. Kaloku ke yiva oku: Uthando luzeka kade umsindo. Luthwala iinto zonke; lukholwa ziinto zonke; luthemba iinto zonke. Qaphela: kumoni, uYesu wabeka uthando olukhulu lobuthixo, engafane amgwebe, kodwa wathi, “Guqukani.” Wabaphilisa. Ke yena wajikela kubaFarisi bodwa, wathetha amazwi anzima ngabo. Ngaba uyiphawule loo nto? Hayi kwaboni babengazi ngcono. Wayenothando novelwano olukhulu kangangokuba yayiyinto entsha…yayiyinguqu, zange bayibone into enje ebomini babo. UMesiya—Uzipho loKhozi—uza kulanda abantu bakhe. Abazange baphume ekubanjweni Kwakhe. Uthando luzeka kade umsindo. Amen. Usekunye nam ngoku? Onjani wona umyalezo! La mazwi makangene ezintliziyweni zenu, ibhayibhile yatsho njalo.

Ngoko sifumanisa, umonde luphawu olubalulekileyo lothando. La mazwi acatshulwa ngumbhali wamandulo: “Umonde luphawu olubalulekileyo lothando. Ithathela ingqalelo imida kunye nobuthathaka boluntu. Inceba inethemba lokulungileyo kuwo wonke umntu…. Ndingahamba ngebhayibhile kwiTestamente eNdala nakwiTestamente eNtsha ndinibonise abantu ukuba iNkosi yaguquka kungekho mntu wayibonayo into elungileyo kubo. UYakobi, okwesibini, wakhangeleka ngokungathi wayephambukile kuThixo kwezinye izinto awazenzayo. Kodwa uYehova wathi, “Wena uya kuba yinkosi kunye noThixo.” Ubona okulungileyo kumntu wonke. Phawula indlela uthando lukamama olulutyhila ngayo olu phawu; ukuba umntwana uye waphambuka kwaye bonke abanye bayamncama loo mntwana, umama uya kuqhubeka ethandaza kwaye enethemba. Ngokufuthi imithandazo yakhe iyaphendulwa.

Xa wonke umntu enikezela baze bayeke ukuthandaza, umama akayi kunikezela. Nantso umgangatho kaThixo kuye. Yahlukile koko amadoda anokuba nayo. Ngaba unokuthi, Amen? Abantwana abaninzi baye entolongweni. Basezitalatweni abanye babalekile emakhaya. Yonke imihla usiva ubungqina ngendlela iNkosi ezichukumise ngayo iintliziyo zabo. Bafana nonyana wolahleko. Ngamanye amaxesha, bafunda isifundo sabo ngokukhawuleza kwaye ngamanye amaxesha bafunda emva kwexesha elide. Kodwa umthandazo kamama ufana noNzipho weKhozi; aliyi kutyeka. Amanye amadoda nawo; bazothandaza kunye nomama. Ngokufuthi, loo mithandazo iyaphendulwa.

Phulaphula oku: Umvangeli uRA Torrey walishiya ikhaya eselula esaba kwimithandazo kanina. Owu, indlela awamthandazela ngayo! Wasuka nje walishiya ikhaya ngenxa yokuzimisela kwakhe ukuba angabi nanto yakwenza nonqulo. Wayezicingela njengomntu ongakholelwayo kubukho bukaThixo. Wayekholelwa ukuba wayengumenzi wekamva lakhe yaye uThixo akananto yakwenza nalo. Kodwa yonke into yayinxamnye naye—nomama wakhe ethandaza—ayinakusebenza. Wehla wehla kwakhona. Ekugqibeleni, ephelelwe lithemba, wagqiba ekubeni azibulale. Kungelo xesha awathi uThixo wambamba waza wamguqulela ngokuzukileyo kwiNkosi uYesu. UTorrey oselula wabuya ukuze asikelele unina owayemthandazele ngokunyaniseka. Waba ngomnye wabashumayeli abakhulu behlabathi ekusindiseni imiphefumlo. Uyabona, uzipho loKhozi; UThixo ekunina, akanakusuka ayeke.

Ndiyakholwa ukuba ibandla namhlanje, abanyulwa bakaThixo, banoNzipho woKhozi. Musani ukubalahla abo banyuliweyo. Bayangena Luzuko! Haleluya! Musa ukutyeka; abo bantu baya kusindiswa. UThixo uza kubabuyisela abantu baKhe. Akakhange azilibale. Bazakufunda izifundo ezithile, nganye nganye, phaya phandle ehlabathini, kodwa ela Khozi liyakuzifumana. Uthando luzeka kade umsindo; Iminyaka engama-4,000 kunye noSirayeli kwaye ngoku iminyaka engama-6,000, uthando lubandezeleka ixesha elide. Ngoko sifumanisa ukuba, kodwa ngenxa yomonde nokholo lukanina [uTorrey] kwizithembiso zikaThixo, eli bali ngelaliphele ngendlela eyahlukileyo. Ukuba ebengathandazi, bekunokonakala konke kuye.

Umonde—ukuzeka kade umsindo—luphawu lothando lobuthixo. Siyidinga njani na ebandleni namhlanje! Phakathi kwabashumayeli nabalungiseleli namhlanje, ndikholelwa ukuba luphawu ekunzima ukulufumana. Khangela nokuba ungafuna kangakanani, umthandazo njengoko uthanda, kunzima ukuwufumana. Ndiyazi. Olo lolunye lweempawu eziya kuba phakathi komtshakazi. Wonke umKristu uyakufuna oko, kodwa kukho ixabiso afanele alihlawule. Umntu kufuneka azibambe emthandazweni kunye nozimiselo olunamandla-amandla okuthobela. Uthando olungcwele alukafiki apho lufanele ukuba khona ebandleni, kodwa luyeza. Iziganeko ezenzekayo ezisingqongileyo kunye neenguqu eziya kuza ngolawulo lobuthixo, njengoko iNkosi ihamba phakathi kwabantu baYo, uthando lobuthixo luya kuqukuqela. Iya kukoyisa. Buya kukuhlutha. Iya kubamba wena. Iya kukuxwila. Uzuko! Haleluya! Uya kuguqulelwa ngolo hlobo. Uyayikholelwa loo nto? Kunzima njengoko kubonakala kubuntu bakho, inyama endala ohamba kuyo. UPawulos wayekhohlakele kunani nonke apha kwaye wabhala oku apha: Uthando lunyamezela ixesha elide, luthwala iinto zonke, lukholelwa izinto zonke kwaye luthemba izinto zonke. Lowo ngumyalezo webandla. Amen. Uthando lunobubele.

Uzipho Lokhozi: Akayi kuyeka…kodwa ubambe abo banyuliweyo. Ungalahleka; loo Claw uya kukufumana, kwaye olo thando lobuthixo luya kukubuyisela njengoonyana bolahleko kunye neentombi zolahleko esinazo ekhaya namhlanje. Ndithi kuwe iBhabheli endala kunye nenkqubo yamaRoma esinayo namhlanje (Isityhilelo 17) babiza iintombi zabo kunye noonyana babo kwaye babamanyanisa emhlabeni jikelele. Ekupheleni kwephakade eli, uThixo ubiza abantwana bakhe ukuba beze ekhaya, bamanyane naye. Uthando lunobubele, luzeka kade umsindo yaye lubona okulungileyo kwizinto zonke. Kumama, olu phawu lubonakaliswa kunyana.

'Yabona; xa singaboni nto ilungileyo kwabanye abantu—abakufutshane nawe apho usebenza khona—baya kukucaphukisa baze bakungcungcuthekise ukuba banako. Kodwa kufuneka ungayihoyi le nto kwaye uqhubeke neshishini lakho. Khumbula, ukuzeka kade umsindo. Sisekupheleni kwehlabathi kwaye uza kwenza icebo. Iza kusebenza nayo. Andizange ndilibone icebo awayenalo elingazange lisebenze. Ke, ngelixa kukho intuthumbo kweli hlabathi-ngamanye amaxesha, uPawulos wayesoloko esithi kungcono ukubakho kunye neNkosi kunokuba lapha-ngelixa kunzima emhlabeni, Uya kufumana indlela. Ukubeke ezandleni Zakhe kwaye Akayi kukukhulula. Ewe, itsho iNkosi, ukuba olu phawu lothando lobuthixo sele lukho kulo lonke ibandla, uyakuba nam! Oh yam! Ndicinga ukuba kuhle; ilizwi lokwazi. Uyabona, ukuba kulapho imelwe kukubakho ngawo onke amandla aKhe nazo zonke izipho zaKhe, siyakuguqulwa. Ekuphelisweni kwephakade eli, njengokuba zonke ezi zinto zizaliseka kwabanyulwa bakaThixo, bengasekho;

Ndifuna ubulela iNkosi ngalo myalezo. Abo bakule khasethi wanga uThixo angafikelela iintliziyo zenu. Ndifuna ukuthi: Ukuba nithandazela oonyana neentombi zenu, qhubekani nithandaza. Ewe, thandazani, itsho iNkosi, Thandazani. Uzuko! Haleluya! Yamkele entliziyweni yakho. Yiyeke kumyolelo wam kuba ndinguWill-Master kwaye ndiya kuyenza [ngaphandle]. Ungayibona le naleya, kodwa yena ubona ngenye indlela. Bonke abo bakuphulaphuleyo oku, baqhubeka bechitha ixesha [bethandazela] abo beza ebukumkanini bukaThixo, abo bakubuvangeli basemazweni, nabo uThixo ababizayo ekuvuneni. Qhubeka ngokuba uThixo unawe. Musa ukutyeka; ungaze ujike kodwa kholwani ezintliziyweni zenu.

Uthando lukholwa ziinto zonke, luthemba iinto zonke. Masibulele iNkosi. Ndiyathandaza ukuba uThixo abasikelele abo bakwikhasethi. Ndiva uthando lukaThixo kuyo yonke indawo. Iyanditya. Bangaphi kuni abanokuyiva loo nto? Olu hlobo lomyalezo lulo olwakha olo kholo, lwakha eso similo, lwakha loo kuzithemba, lusindisa imiphefumlo kwaye luyizisa ebukumkanini bukaThixo. Imithandazo yethu iyasebenza. UThixo usebenza phakathi kwabantu baKhe. Ndifuna ukwehla apha ngoku. Ndifuna ukukuthandazela. Nantoni na oyifunayo kuThixo, ukuba ufuna uthando olungaphezulu lobuthixo, umonde, ukuzeka kade umsindo, phakamisa izandla zakho kwaye uzoyise ezi zinto. Lungiselela inguqulelo. Lungiselelani izinto ezinkulu ezivela kuNdikhoyo. UThixo anisikelele iintliziyo zenu. Enkosi, Yesu. Ndiva uYesu. Umkhulu ngokwenene! Ngobu busuku emva kokuba ndigqibile ukushumayela isigidimi, kwabakho amandla angakumbi oKhozi, ndaziva ndifuna ukwanga wonk’ ubani kubaphulaphuli ngolo hlobo!
