Isilumkiso soguqulo 104 | 7/23/1986 PM | I-CD yeNtshumayelo kaNeal Frisby #1115
Enkosi Yesu! Owu, kumnandi ngenene ngokuhlwanje. Akunjalo? Uyayiva iNkosi? Ukulungele ukukholwa yiNkosi? Ndisahamba; Andikabinalo nexesha lokuphumla. Ndiyakuthandazela ngokuhlwanje. Masikholelwe eNkosini nantoni na oyifunayo apha. Maxa wambi ndiye ndicinge entliziyweni yam ukuba bebesazi nje indlela anamandla ngayo amandla kaThixo—oko kukuthi—ukubangqongileyo noko kusemoyeni njalo njalo. Hayi indlela abanokuzabalazela ngayo ukucombulula ezo ngxaki! Kodwa rhoqo inyama endala ifuna ukuma endleleni. Ngamanye amaxesha abantu abanakuyamkela njengoko befanele, kodwa kukho izinto ezintle apha kuwe ngobu busuku.
Nkosi, siyakuthanda. Sele ushukuma. Ukholo oluncinane nje, Nkosi, luyakushukumisa, kancinane nje. Kwaye siyakholelwa ezintliziyweni zethu ukuba kukho ukholo olukhulu kananjalo phakathi kwabantu bakho apho uya kusishukumisa kakhulu. Chukumisa umntu ngamnye ngobu busuku. Bakhokele Nkosi kwiintsuku ezizayo kuba ngokuqinisekileyo siyakukufuna ngakumbi kunangaphambili njengoko sivala iminyaka, Nkosi Yesu. Ke kaloku siyawalela onke amaxhala obu bomi, sithi, mayimke iNkosi, ixhala, neengcuka, neengcinga. Imithwalo iphezu kwakho Nkosi kwaye uyayithwala. Nika iNkosi uqhwabe izandla! Mayibongwe iNkosi uYesu! Enkosi Yesu.
Ok, qhubeka uhlale phantsi. Ngoku makhe sibone ukuba singenza ntoni ngalo myalezo ngokuhlwanje. Ke, ngobu busuku, qala ukulindela entliziyweni yakho. Qalisa ukumamela. INkosi iya kukuphathela into. Uya kukusikelela ngokwenene. Ngoku, uyazi, ndicinga ukuba yayingobunye ubusuku; Ndandinexesha elininzi. Mhlawumbi ndandiwugqibile wonke umsebenzi wam nayo yonke into enjalo—ukubhala endifuna ukukwenza njalo njalo. Kwakusekuhlwile malunga nelo xesha. Ndithe kulungile, ndizolala nje. Ngequbuliso, uMoya oyiNgcwele wasuka wajikeleza wajika. Ndathatha enye iBhayibhile, endingayisebenzisiyo, kodwa yiKing James Version. Ndigqibe kakuhle, kungcono ndihlale apha phantsi. Ndiyivule nje ndayibetha ngobhontsi kancinci. Kungekudala, uziva—kwaye iNkosi indivumele ukuba ndibhale ezo zibhalo zingcwele. Wathi akwenza njalo, ndazifunda ubusuku bonke. Ndangena ebhedini. Kamva, yayimane isiza kum. Ngoko ke, kwafuneka ndivuke kwakhona kwaye ndaqalisa ukubhala amanqaku ambalwa kunye neengcaphuno ezinjalo. Sizakuyithatha apho kwaye sibone ukuba iNkosi isiphathele ntoni na ngobu busuku. Kwaye ndiyacinga ukuba iNkosi iyashukuma ngenene, siyakuba nomyalezo olungileyo apha.
Ngubani na oya kuva? Ngubani oza kuphulaphula namhlanje? Liveni iLizwi leNkosi. Ngoku, kukho into ephazamisayo kwaye iya kuphazamisa ngakumbi njengoko iminyaka ivala, yabantu abangafuni ukumamela amandla kunye neLizwi leNkosi. Kodwa kuya kubakho isandi. Kuya kubakho isandi esiphuma kuYehova. Kwiindawo ezahlukeneyo ebhayibhileni bekuvakala isandi. ISityhilelo 10 sithe sasisandi ngemihla yelo lizwi, isandi esivela kuThixo. UIsaya 53 uthi ngubani oya kukholwa ingxelo yethu? Sisebenza kubaprofeti ngokuhlwanje. Ngokuphindaphindiweyo, siva kubaprofeti, ngubani na oya kuva? Abantu, izizwe, ihlabathi, ngokubanzi, abaphulaphuli. Ngoku, sinawo apha kuYeremiya; wayefundisa uSirayeli nokumkani ngamaxesha onke. Wayeyinkwenkwe, umprofeti awathi uThixo wamvusa. Abazenzi ngolo hlobo, hayi rhoqo. Rhoqo kumawaka amabini okanye amathathu eminyaka kuyakufika omnye ofana noYeremiya, umprofeti. Ukuba ukhe wafunda ngaye kwaye abazange bakwazi ukumvalela xa esiva eNkosini. Wayethetha kuphela akukuva kuNdikhoyo. UThixo wamnika elo Lizwi. utsho uYehova. Akwenzanga mahluko ukuba abantu babethini. Yayingenzi mahluko ukuba babecinga ntoni. Wathetha oko wamnika kona uYehova.
Ngoku kwizahluko 38 – 40, siza kubalisa ibali elincinane apha. Wayebaxelela kakuhle ngalo lonke ixesha, kodwa abaphulaphula. Babengayi kuva. Babengayi kuyihoya le nto ayithethayo. Nali ibali elilusizi. Phulaphula, oku kuya kuphinda kwakhona ekupheleni kwexesha. Ngoku, umprofeti, wayetshilo uYehova ekuthetheni kwakhe. Kwakuyingozi ukuthetha ngolo hlobo. Awuzange uzame ukudlala ukuba uyamazi uThixo. Kungcono ukuba unoThixo okanye awuphilanga xesha lide. Kwaye utsho uYehova. Isahluko 38 ukuya kutsho malunga nama-40 sibalisa ibali. Wabuya wema phambi kwabathetheli nokumkani wakwaSirayeli, wathi, ukuba anithanga ninyuke nimbone ukumkani waseBhabheli, obenguNebhukadenetsare, nithethe nabathetheli bakhe, wothi imizi itshiswe ngomlilo, yindlala; izibetho–wachaza umfanekiso owoyikekayo kwiZililo. Wabaxelela okuya kwenzeka ukuba abanyuki baye kuthetha nokumkani [uNebhukadenetsare]. Wathi xa uthe wenyuka waya kuthetha naye uya kusinda, isandla sikaYehova siya kukunceda, kwaye ukumkani uya kuwusindisa umphefumlo wakho. Kodwa wathi ukuba anithanga nenjenjalo, niya kuba kwindlala enzima, imfazwe, uloyiko, ukufa, iindyikitya zokufa, zonke iintlobo zezifo neendyikitya zokufa ziya kuhamba phakathi kwenu.
Kwaye ngoko amadoda amakhulu neenkosana bathi, "Nankuya kwakhona." Bathi kukumkani, Musa ukumphulaphula. Bathi, “UYeremiya, usoloko ethetha kakubi, usoloko esixelela ezi zinto.” Kodwa ukuba uqaphele ukuba wayenyanisile ngalo lonke ixesha ethetha. Kwaye bathi, “Uyazi, ubenza buthathaka abantu. Kaloku, ubeka uloyiko ezintliziyweni zabantu. Ubenza bangcangcazele abantu. Masimgxothe nje simbulale, simsuse ngayo yonke le ntetho anayo.” Ke ngoko, uZedekiya, wehla endleleni wahamba. Uthe esahamba, bambamba lo mprofeti bamsa emhadini, emhadini. Bamjulela emhadini. Wawungenokwazi nokuwabiza amanzi ngenxa yodaka. Yayakhiwe ngodaka baza bamxhoma ukuya kuthi ga emagxeni akhe kuyo, iqula elinzulu. Kwaye babeza kumshiya apho engenanto ukutya, engenanto, aze afe ukufa okumasikizi. Lakubona oko elinye ithenwa elalilapho, laza laya kukumkani lamxelela ukuba [uYeremiya] akufanelekanga. Ngoko, uZedekiya wathi, “Kulungile, thumela amadoda apho aze amkhuphe apho. Bambuyisela kwintendelezo yentolongo. Wayengena ephuma entolongweni ngalo lonke ixesha.
Wathi ukumkani, Mziseni kum. Ngoko bamzisa kuZedekiya. Waze uZedekiya wathi, “Ngoku uYeremiya” [Yabona, uThixo wamkhupha emhadini wodaka. Wayekuphefumla kwakhe wokugqibela]. Kwaye yena [uZedekiya] wathi, “Ngoku, ndixelele. ungandibambeli nto. Wathi: “Ndixelele yonke into Yeremiya. musa ukundifihlela nto. Wayefuna inkcazelo kuYeremiya. Inokuba yayivakala ibubudenge kuye wonke umntu owayelapho ngendlela awayethetha ngayo. Ukumkani wothukile kancinci malunga naloo nto. Yaye nantsi into ethethwayo apha kuYeremiya 38:15 , “Wathi uYeremiya kuZedekiya, ukuba ndithe ndakuxelela, akuyi kundibulala na? Ukuba ndithe ndakucebisa, akuyi kundiphulaphula na? Ke kaloku, uYeremiya, ekubeni ekuMoya oyiNgcwele, wayesazi ukuba [ukumkani] akayi kumphulaphula xa emxelela. Kwaye ukuba umxelele ngokuqinisekileyo uya kumbulala nakanjani na. Ngoko, ukumkani wathi kuye, “Hayi, Yeremiya, ndiyakuthembisa njengokuba uThixo wawudala umphefumlo wakho” [wayesazi kakhulu ngaloo nto kunjalo]. Wathi, Andiyi kukuchukumisa; andiyi kukubulala. Kodwa uthe undixelele yonke into. Ke, uYeremiya, umprofeti, wathi kwakhona, “Itsho iNkosi, uThixo wemikhosi, uThixo kaSirayeli, nabo bonke. Wathi, ukuba uthe waya kukumkani waseBhabheli, wathetha kuye nabathetheli bakhe, wathi, Niya kuphila wena nendlu yakho neYerusalem. Yonke indlu yakho iya kuphila, kumkani. Kodwa uthe ukuba awunyuki uthethe naye le ndawo izocinywa. Imizi yakho iya kutshiswa, ibe yintshabalaliso kwizandla zonke, ithinjwe. Wathi uZedekiya, Ke, ndiyawoyika amaYuda. UYeremiya wathi amaYuda akayi kukusindisa. Abayi kukusindisa. Kodwa yena [uYeremiya] wathi, “Khawuwaphulaphule amazwi eNkosi uYehova.
Ngubani na oya kuphulaphula? Kwaye ufuna ukundixelela ukuba kukho abanye abaprofeti abathathu kuphela abafana noYeremiya, umprofeti, kuyo yonke ibhayibhile kwaye abazange bamphulaphule, kwaye yena owatsho uYehova ngamandla amakhulu? Wathi ngaxesha lithile [iLizwi likaThixo] lifana nomlilo, umlilo, umlilo emathanjeni am. Uthanjiswe ngamandla amakhulu; yabacaphukisa [ngakumbi]. Kwabenza bambi ngakumbi; bazivala iindlebe zabo ezingevayo kuye. Kwaye abantu, bathi, “Kutheni bengamphulaphulanga nje? Yini na ukuba bangeva namhla, utsho uYehova, uThixo kaSirayeli? Into enye; bebengayi kumazi umprofeti ukuba uthe wavuka phakathi kwabo aze uThixo ekhwele kanye emaphikweni akhe. Apho siphila khona namhlanje, basenokucalula kancinane apha naphaya malunga nabashumayeli abathile baze bazi kancinane ngabo. Ngoko [uYeremiya] wamxelela [uKumkani uZedekiya] ukuba nonke niya kutshatyalaliswa. Wathi ke ukumkani, AmaYuda, uyazi, achasene nawe nayo yonke loo nto. Wathi akwaba ungandimamela. Ndiya kuthandaza ukuba undiphulaphule ngenxa yokuba [kungenjalo] uya kucinywa. Waza wathi [uZedekiya], “Ke, Yeremiya, musa ukuxelela namnye [kuye] into oyithethileyo kum. Ndiza kukukhulula uhambe. Baxelele ukuba uthethe nam ngezibongozo zakho njalo njalo. Ungabaxeleli nto abantu ngale nto. Wahamba ke ukumkani. UYeremiya, umprofeti wahamba indlela yakhe.
Ke kaloku izizukulwana ezilishumi elinazine zazidlule kuDavide umprofeti, owayenaye. Sifunda kuMateyu, izizukulwana ezilishumi elinesine ngoku zazidlule ukususela kuDavide. Babelungiselela ukuhamba. ILizwi likaThixo liyinyaniso. Ngoku kwesi sixeko [iYerusalem] kwakukho omnye umprofeti omncinane, uDaniyeli, nabantwana abathathu abangamaHebhere ababehambahamba apho. Babengaziwa ngoko, 'yabona? Iinkosana ezincinci, zazibiza ngoHezekiya. UYeremiya wahamba indlela yakhe—umprofeti. Into elandelayo uyazi, nanku esiza ukumkani wookumkani, ababembiza ngokuba nguNebhukadenetsare ngelo xesha emhlabeni ngelo xesha. UThixo wayembize ukuba agwebe. Kwaphuma umkhosi wakhe omkhulu. Nguye owaya eTire waza wazikhahlela phantsi zonke iindonga waza waziqwenga apho, egweba ekhohlo, egweba ekunene. Waba yintloko yegolide eyabonwa nguDaniyeli umprofeti kamva. UNebhukadenetsare wehla etshayela, niyazi, umfanekiso [wephupha legolide] awamcombululelayo uDaniyeli. Weza etshayela yonke into esendleleni yakhe njengoko watshoyo umprofeti, wathabatha yonke into phambi kwakhe. UZedekiya nabanye babo baqalisa ukubaleka bephuma esixekweni bekhwele endulini, kodwa kwakusele kusemva kwexesha. Abalindi, umkhosi wabakhukulisa waza wababuyisela kanye kwindawo ethile apho uNebhukadenetsare wayekhona.
UZedekiya akazange anikele ngqalelo koko kwathethwa ngumprofeti uYeremiya, kungekhona nelizwi elinye. Ngubani na oya kuphulaphula? Wathi uNebhukadenetsare kuZedekiya [uNebhukadenetsare] entliziyweni yakhe, ukuba uthunywe khona ukuba ayigwebe loo ndawo. Wayephethe umthetheli-waka, umthetheli-waka, wamzisa khona [uZedekiya], wabathabatha [uNebhukadenetsare] bonke oonyana bakhe, wababulala phambi kwakhe, wathi, Mkhupheni amehlo akhe, nimrhuqele eBhabheli. Wathi umthetheli-waka, bevile ngoYeremiya. Ngoku uYeremiya kwafuneka azenzele umzekelo. Kwakhona wayethe iBhabhiloni yayiza kuwa kamva, kodwa babengayazi loo nto. Wayengekayibhali yonke kwimisongo. Ukumkani uNebhukadenetsare wacinga ukuba uThixo unaye [uYeremiya] ngenxa yokuba wayeyixele kwangaphambili yonke le nto. Ngoko, wathi kumthetheli-waka, “Yiya phaya uye kuthetha kuYeremiya umprofeti. Mkhupheni entolongweni. Uthe ungamenzi buhlungu kodwa yenza lento athi yenze. Weza umthetheli-waka kuye, wathi, Uyazi nawe, ukuba uThixo wayigweba le ndawo ngenxa yezithixo, nokunye, nokumlibala uThixo wabo. Andazi ukuba umthetheli-waka wazi njani ngale nto, kodwa wakwazi. UNebhukadenetsare, wayengazi ukuba uphi kanye kanye uThixo, kodwa wayesazi ukuba kwakukho uThixo kwaye [ukuba] ibhayibhile yathi Yena [uThixo] uphakamise uNebhukadenetsare emhlabeni ukuze agwebe abantu abahlukeneyo emhlabeni. Wayelizembe ledabi ngokuchasene nabo awathi uThixo wabaphakamisa ngenxa yokuba abantu babengamphulaphulanga. Ngoko, umthetheli-waka, waxelela uYeremiya—wathetha naye okwethutyana—wathi ungahamba nathi ubuyele eBhabhiloni; sikhupha uninzi lwabantu apha. Bakhupha uninzi lweengqondo zikaSirayeli, bonke ubukrelekrele bezakhiwo njalo njalo babuyela eBhabheli. UDaniyeli wayengomnye wabo. UYeremiya wayengumprofeti omkhulu. UDaniyeli wayengenakuprofeta ngoko. Wayelapho kunye nabantwana abathathu abangamaHebhere kunye nabanye bendlu yasebukhosini. Wabathabatha bonke [uNebhukadenetsare] wababuyisela eBhabhiloni. Wazisebenzisa kwisayensi nakwizinto ezahlukeneyo ezilolo hlobo. Wambiza rhoqo uDaniyeli.
Ngoko umthetheli-waka wathi: “Ungabuyela nathi eBhabheli, kuba siza kushiya abantu abambalwa namahlwempu apha, simisele ukumkani wakwaYuda. UNebhukadenetsare uza kulawula eBhabhiloni. Indlela awayenze ngayo loo nto, babengayi kuphinda bavukele ngokuchasene naye. Ukuba benjenjalo, bekungayi kusala nto ngaphandle kothuthu. Yayiphantse yaluthuthu kwaye yayiyeyona nto yoyikekayo, isililo esakha sabhalwa kwibhayibhile. Kodwa uYeremiya wajonga ngaphaya kwekhuselo lexesha iminyaka engama-2,500. Kwakhona waxela kwangaphambili ukuba iBhabhiloni yayiya kuwa, kungekhona noNebhukadenetsare, kodwa noBheleshatsare. Yaye uya kufikelela kanye kanye yaye uThixo uya kuyibhukuqa iBhabhiloni imfihlelo nazo zonke ziphela njengeSodom neGomora—efikelela kwikamva njengoko kwakuprofetiwe. Wathi ke umthetheli-waka, ukumkani wandixelela nantoni na oyifunayo, hamba nathi, okanye uhlale. Bathetha bodwa okwethutyana, uYeremiya yena wahlala nabantu abaseleyo. 'Yabona; omnye umprofeti wayesiya eBhabhiloni, uDaniyeli. UYeremiya akazange ayeke. IBhayibhile ithi uDaniyeli wafunda iincwadi awayezithunyelelwe nguYeremiya. UYeremiya wathi abantu babeya kuthinjelwa eBhabhiloni [baze bahlale khona] iminyaka engama-70. UDaniel wayesazi ukuba sele isondele xa waguqa ngamadolo. Wayekholelwa ukuba ngomnye umprofeti [uYeremiya] yaye kungelo xesha awathi wathandaza waza uGabriyeli wabonakala ukuba babuyele ekhaya. Wayesazi ukuba iminyaka engama-70 yayiza kuvuka. Babeneminyaka engama-70 behambile.
Noko ke, uYeremiya wasala, waza umthetheli-waka wathi: “Yeyi, Yeremiya, nanku umvuzo.” Ulihlwempu, wayengazange wayiva loo nto ngaphambili. Ke abo babengamazi kangako uThixo babekulungele ukumphulaphula nokumnceda, nayo indlu [yakwaYuda] eyayilapho ayizange imhlonele uThixo. Babengenalo kwaphela ukholo kulo [iLizwi likaThixo]. Umthetheli-waka wamvuza, wamnika imifuno, wamxelela apho angaya khona esixekweni, njalo njalo, wemka ke. UYeremiya wayelapho. Kwadlula izizukulwana ezilishumi elinesine ukususela ekubeni uDavide kunye nabo bathinjelwa eBhabhiloni—isiprofeto esixeliweyo. Kwaye kwizizukulwana ezilishumi elinesine ukususela kwixesha lokuphuma kwabo eBhabhiloni, weza uYesu. Siyazi, uMateyu uya kukuxelela ibali apho. Ngoku siyabona, utsho uYehova. Bamthabatha uYeremiya, bamtshonisa eludakeni. Waphuma eludakeni waza kwisahluko esilandelayo waxelela uZedekiya ukuba uSirayeli [uYuda] wayeza kutshona eludakeni. Yayifuzisela ukuba xa babefaka loo mprofeti eludakeni kanye apho uSirayeli [uYuda] wayesiya khona, ezika eludakeni. Yathinjelwa eBhabhiloni. UNebhukadenetsare wagoduka, kodwa wayephethe umprofeti [uDaniyeli]! UYeremiya waphuma kuloo ndawo. UHezekile waphakama waza umprofeti wabaprofeti, uDaniyeli, wayesembindini weBhabhiloni. UThixo wayembeke apho waza wahlala khona. Ngoku siyalazi ibali likaNebhukadenetsare njengoko wayekhula elawula. Uyalibona ibali ngoku kwelinye icala. Aba bantwana bathathu bamaHebhere baqalisa ukukhula. UDaniyeli waqalisa ukutolika amaphupha okumkani. Wambonisa ubukhosi behlabathi bentloko yegolide ukuya kutsho kwintsimbi nodongwe ekupheleni kobukomanisi ukuya kuthi ga apho—kunye nazo zonke izilwanyana—enyukayo neziwayo izikumkani zehlabathi. UYohane, owathatyathwa kwisiqithi sasePatmos kamva, wabalisa kwaeli bali. Elinjani lona ibali esinalo!
Kodwa ngubani oya kuphulaphula? UYeremiya 39:8 wathi amaKaledi ayitshisa indlu yokumkani nezindlu zabantu ngomlilo. Wazidiliza iindonga zeYerusalem, watshabalalisa yonke into eyayilapho, wathumela ilizwi lokuba uThixo amyalele ukuba akwenze. Wathi umthetheli-waka kuYeremiya. Oko kusezibhalweni. Funda uYeremiya 38-40, uya kuyibona apho. UYeremiya, wasala ngasemva. Baqhubeka. Kodwa uYeremiya waqhubeka ethetha yaye eprofeta. Ekuphumeni kwabo apho, waprofeta ukuba iBhabhiloni enkulu eyayisenzela uThixo inkonzo ngelo xesha yayiya kuwa emhlabeni ngokwawo. Wakuprofeta kwaye kwenzeka phantsi kukaBheleshatsare, kungekhona phantsi kukaNebhukadenetsare. Nguye kuphela [uNebhukadenetsare] owagwetywa nguThixo okwethutyana njengesilwanyana waza waphakama waza wagqiba kwelokuba uThixo ukho ngokwenene. Waza uBheleshatsare wabhalwa ngesandla eludongeni, lowo babengamphulaphulanga uDaniyeli. Ekugqibeleni, uBheleshatsare wambiza waza uDaniyeli watolika umbhalo wesandla owawuseludongeni lwaseBhabhiloni. Wathi yayiza kumka; ubukumkani babuza kuthatyathwa. AmaMedi namaPersi ayeza yaye uKoreshi uza kubakhulula abantwana ukuba bagoduke. Kwiminyaka engamashumi asixhenxe kamva, kwenzeka oko. Akamkhulu na uThixo? Ekugqibeleni uBheleshatsare wabiza uDaniyeli, lowo wayengazange amphulaphule, ukuba eze kutyhila oko kwakuseludongeni. Ukumkanikazi umama wamxelela ukuba angayenza. Utata wakho uye wambiza. Wayenokuyenza loo nto. Ke siyabona kwibhayibhile, ukuba ufuna ngokwenene ukufunda okuthile, yiya kwiZililo. Yabonani, walila nokulila umprofeti lowo, into eya kubakho kude kube sekupheleni kwephakade eli.
Ngubani na oya kuva namhla, ukuba kunjalo, utsho uYehova? Ngubani na oya kuphulaphula? Namhla nibaxelela ngenceba nangosindiso olukhulu lukaYehova. Ubaxelela ngamandla akhe amakhulu okuphilisa, amandla amakhulu okuhlangula. Ngubani na oya kuphulaphula? Ubaxelela ngobomi obungunaphakade, abuthembisileyo uThixo, abunakuphela, imvuselelo emfutshane enamandla, eya kuthi iNkosi, ukubanika yona. Ngubani na oya kuphulaphula? Siza kufumanisa ngomzuzu ukuba ngubani oza kuphulaphula. Nibaxelela ngokuza kweNkosi kusondele. Abagxeki bafika emoyeni kwanabakwaMoya amadala, iFull Gospel—“Ah, sinexesha elininzi.” Ngelixa eningalikhumbuleliyo, itsho iNkosi. Yehla phezu kweBhabhiloni. Yafika kuSirayeli [uYuda]. Iya kukufikela. Kuba, bathi kuYeremiya, umprofeti, “Nokuba ithe yafika, iyakuba phaya kwizizukulwana, kumakhulu amaninzi eminyaka. Yonke lentetho anayo masimbulale simkhuphe kulentlupheko yakhe apha. Uphambene,” uyabona. Ngeyure ongacingi ngayo. Kwaba mzuzwana nje wada wafika loo kumkani phezu kwabo. Oku kwabenza bangazithembi macala onke, kodwa kungekhona kuYeremiya. Yonke imihla, wayesazi ukuba isiprofeto sasisondela. Mihla le, wayebeka iindlebe zakhe emhlabeni ukuze aphulaphule loo mahashe esiza. Weva iinqwelo zokulwa ezinkulu zibaleka. Wayesazi ukuba bayeza. Bamfikela uSirayeli [uYuda].
Ke sifumanisa ukuba, ubaxelela malunga nokuza kweNkosi ekuguquleleni—ungena kwinguqulelo, uguqule abantu? Ngubani na oya kuphulaphula? Abafileyo baya kuvuka kwaye uThixo uya kuthetha nabo. Ngubani na oya kuphulaphula? Uyabona, sisihloko eso. Ngubani na oya kuphulaphula? Nantso into endiyifumene kuYeremiya awayezama ukubaxelela yona. Ifikile ke kum: ngubani ozomamela? Kwaye ndabhala phantsi xa ndibuya kunye nezinye izibhalo. Iindlala, iinyikima zomhlaba ezinkulu kulo lonke ihlabathi. Ngubani na oya kuphulaphula? Ukunqongophala kokutya kwehlabathi ngolunye lwezi ntsuku kuya kukhokelela kubuzimu phezu kwayo yaye kuya kulandela njengoko uYeremiya, umprofeti, wathi kuya kwenzeka kuSirayeli. Umchasi-Kristu uya kuvuka. Ukunyathela kwakhe kuya kusondela ngakumbi ngamaxesha onke. Inkqubo yakhe iphantsi komhlaba njengeingcingo ezityalwa ngoku ukuba athathe indawo. Ngubani na oya kuphulaphula? Urhulumente wehlabathi, urhulumente wonqulo uya kuvela. Ngubani na oya kuphulaphula? Imbandezelo iyeza, uphawu lwerhamncwa luza kunikelwa kungekudala. Ngubani na oya kuphulaphula, yabona? Utsho uYehova ukuthi, Kuya kwenzeka, kodwa ngubani na ovayo utsho uYehova? Injalo kanye loo nto. Sibuyele kuyo. Imfazwe yeathom phezu kobuso bomhlaba iya kuza, utsho uYehova, ngezothuso zemitha nendyikitya yokufa ehamba ebumnyameni endayixela kwangaphambili. Ngenxa yokuba abantu bengamameli, oko akwenzi mahluko. Iza kufika kunjalo. Ndiyayikholelwa loo nto ngentliziyo yam yonke. Umkhulu ngokwenene! Ngaba akunjalo? IArmagedon iya kufika. Izigidi, amakhulu ziya kuya kwiNtlambo yaseMegido kwaSirayeli, ezincotsheni zeentaba—kwimfazwe enkulu yeArmagedon ehlabathini lonke. Imini enkulu yeNkosi iyeza. Ngoobani abaya kuyiphulaphula imini enkulu kaYehova njengoko ibafikela apho?
IMillennium iyakufika. Umgwebo weTrone eMhlophe uyakufika. Kodwa ngubani oya kuphulaphula isigidimi? Umzi wasezulwini uya kuhla nawo; Amandla amakhulu kaThixo. Ngubani na oya kuphulaphula zonke ezo zinto? Abanyuliweyo baya kuva, itsho iNkosi. Owu! Uyabona, uYeremiya isahluko 1 okanye 2 kwaye yayingabanyulwa. Ngelo xesha babembalwa kakhulu. Athi lawo aseleyo, Yeremiya, umprofeti, ndiyavuya ngoko, ngokuba ubuhleli nathi apha. 'Yabona; ngoku wathetha inyaniso. Kwaba kanye phambi kwabo njengombono awayewubonile, ngathi yiscreen esikhulu. Ibhayibhile yathi ekupheleni kwexesha ukuba abanyulwa ibe ngabo kuphela abaya kuliva ngenene iLizwi leNkosi phambi kokuba kuguqulelwe.. Iintombi eziziziziyatha, azizange zimve Yena. Hayi. Baphakama babaleka, kodwa abazange bayifumane, 'yabona? Izilumko naloo mtshakazi unyuliweyo, abona basondeleyo kuYe, baya kuphulaphula. UThixo uya kuba neqela labantu ekupheleni kwehlabathi eliya kuphulaphula. Ndiyakholwa oku: phakathi kwela qela, uDaniyeli kunye nabantwana abathathu abangamaHebhere, bakholwa. Bangaphi kuni abayaziyo loo nto? Aba bafana [abantwana abathathu bamaHebhere] noDaniyeli, abaneminyaka nje eli-12 okanye eli-15 ubudala mhlawumbi. Babemphulaphule loo mprofeti. UDaniyeli, engazi nokuba wayeya kuba mkhulu kangakanani na ngemibono yakhe nangaphezu kukaYeremiya kwimisebenzi yemibono. Kwaye nangona kunjalo, babesazi. Ngoba? Ngokuba babengabanyulwa bakaThixo. Bangaphi kuni abakholelwayo kuloo nto? Kwaye umsebenzi omkhulu ababefanele ukuwenza eBhabhiloni, ukulumkisa, “Phumani kuyo, bantu bam.” Amen. Ngabanyuliweyo kuphela—kwaye ke ebudeni bembandezelo enkulu njengentlabathi yolwandle, abantu baqalisa—kusemva kwexesha, uyabona. Kodwa abanyuliweyo baya kuphulaphula uThixo. Ichanekile kanye. Siza kuba nezililo kwakhona. Kodwa ngubani oya kuyikholelwa ingxelo yethu? Ngubani oza kuhoya?
Ihlabathi liya kuthinjwa kwakhona lisiwe eBhabheli, isiTyhilelo 17—inkolo—kunye neSityhilelo 18—urhwebo, urhwebo lwehlabathi. Nantso ke. Baza kukhokelelwa kwakhona eBhabhiloni. Ibhayibhile ithi umhlaba uvaliwe. IBhabheli eyimfihlakalo nokumkani wayo bafanele ukungena kuyo, umchasi-Kristu. Ke sifumanisa ukuba, bayakuba ziimfama kwakhona; njengokuba uZedekiya wakhutshelwa kude eyimfama, ekhonkxiwe, ngukumkani ongumhedeni, ukumkani onamandla amakhulu phezu komhlaba.. Wakhokelelwa kude. Ngoba? Ngenxa yokuba akazange awaphulaphule amazwi kaYehova ngokuphathelele intshabalalo eyayiza kubafikela. Kwaye uyaqonda kwiiyure ezimbalwa abanye abantu [baya] kuphuma apha, baya kuzama ukulibala ngayo yonke le nto. Ayizukunceda nto. Phulaphula oko ikuthethayo iNkosi ngentshabalalo ezayo yehlabathi nangenceba Yayo yobuthixo ethethelelayo neemfesane zayo ezinkulu ezizayo, zibatshabalalise abo baya kuphulaphula into ayithethayo.. Intle ngokwenene. Akunjalo? Ngokuqinisekileyo, masikholelwe eNkosini ngentliziyo yethu yonke. Ngoko, ngesijwili, ihlabathi liya kuba yimfama lize likhokelwe eBhabhiloni ngamatyathanga njengoZedekiya. Siyazi kamva ukuba uZedekiya waguquka ngenceba. Elinjani lona ukuba lusizi ibali! KwiZililo nakuYeremiya 38 – 40-ibali awabalisa ngalo. UZedekiya, intliziyo eyaphukileyo. Waza wayibona [impazamo yakhe] waza waguquka.
Ngoku, uDaniyeli kwisahluko se-12 uthe izilumko, ziyakuqonda. Abangakholwayo kunye nabo bonke kunye nehlabathi, abazange baqonde. Babengazi nto. Kodwa uDaniyeli wathi izilumko ziya kuqaqamba njengeenkwenkwezi kuba zazikholelwa kuloo ngxelo. Ngubani onokukholelwa ingxelo yethu? 'Yabona; ngubani na oya kuyiva le nto siyithethayo? UYeremiya, owayenokumamela oko ndiza kukuthetha. “Mfakeni emhadini. Akalunganga ebantwini. Ngoba? Uzenza buthathaka izandla zabantu. Uyaboyikisa abantu. Ubeka uloyiko ezintliziyweni zabantu. Masimbulale,” bamxelela ukumkani. Wemka ukumkani, bamsa emhadini; utsho uYehova; bazigqibezela emhadini. Ndamkhupha uYeremiya, kodwa ndabashiya—iminyaka engama-70—yaye abaninzi kubo bafela esixekweni [eBhabhiloni]. Bafa bemka. Kwasala abambalwa. Yaye xa uNebhukadenetsare esenza okuthile—wayenokutshabalalisa yaye kwakungayi kubakho nto iseleyo ngaphandle kokuba ubonakalise inceba encinane. Kwaye xa wakha, wayenokwakha ubukhosi. Namhlanje, kwimbali yakudala, ubukumkani bukaNebhukadenetsare eBhabheli yayiyenye yezinto ezisi-7 ezimangalisayo zehlabathi, kunye nemiyezo yakhe ejingayo eyakhayo, kunye nesixeko esikhulu awasakhayo. UDaniyeli wathi wena uyintloko yegolide. Akukho nto yakha yema njengawe. Kwandula ke kwafika isilivere, nobhedu, nesinyithi, nodongwe, ekupheleni, kobunye ubukumkani obukhulu; UDaniyeli wathi wena uyintloko yegolide. UDaniyeli wayezama ukumkhokelela ekubeni [uNebhukadenetsare] abuyele kuThixo. Ekugqibeleni wenjenjalo. Wadlula kwizinto ezininzi. Kuphela ngumprofeti osentliziyweni yakhe nemithandazo emikhulu yaloo kumkani—uThixo wamva kwaye wakwazi ukuyichukumisa intliziyo yakhe kanye phambi kokuba afe. Ikho kwizibhalo; intle into awayithethayo ngoThixo Osenyangweni. UNebhukadenetsare wenjenjalo. Owakhe unyana akazange alithobele icebiso likaDaniel.
Ke sifumanisa ukuba njengoko sivala izahluko: Ngubani oya kuphulaphula oko iNkosi uThixo ikuthethayo malunga nokuza kwenzeka kulo mhlaba? Zonke ezi zinto ziphathelele iindlala, zonke ezi zinto ziphathelele iimfazwe, iinyikima, nokunyuka kwezi nkqubo zahlukeneyo. Zonke ezi zinto ziya kwenzeka, kodwa ngubani na oya kuphulaphula? Abanyuliweyo bakaThixo baya kuphulaphula, itsho, ekupheleni kwephakade. Baya kuba nendlebe. UThixo, uthetha nam kwakhona. Khawuthi ndibone; ingaphakathi apha. Nantsi ke: UYesu wathi lowo unendlebe, makayive into ayithethayo uMoya kuwo amabandla. Oko kwabhalwa ekugqibeleni xa zonke ezinye zagqitywa. Yayiyityibilika ingqondo yam noThixo ngokwaKhe—yasuka yafika kum. Lowo unendlebe makayive into ayithethayo uMoya kuwo amabandla. Makaphulaphule ukusuka kwiSityhilelo 1 ukuya kwiSityhilelo 22. Makayive into ayithethayo uMoya kuwo amabandla. Loo nto ikubonisa ihlabathi liphela nendlela eliyakufika ngayo esiphelweni nendlela eliya kwenzeka ngayo ukususela kwiSityhilelo 1 ukuya ku-22. Abanyuliweyo, abantu bokwenene bakaThixo, banendlebe yalo. UThixo ubeke apho, indlebe yokomoya. Bayakuva isandi salo seLizwi elimnandi likaThixo. Bangaphi kuni abathi Amen?
Ndifuna ume ngeenyawo zakho. Amen. Dumisa inkosi! Intle ngokwenene. Ngoku ndikuxelela ntoni? Awunako ukufana emva koko. Usoloko ufuna ukumamela oko uYehova akuthethayo noko kuya kwenzeka, kwanokuba uya kubenzela ntoni na abantu bakhe. Musa ukuvumela usathana akudimaze. Ungaze umvumele usathana akujikise. 'Yabona; lo mfo ukaSathana—uYeremiya wayeseyinkwenkwana, umprofeti weentlanga zonke ukuya kufikelela apho. Kwanokumkani akazange akwazi ukumchukumisa. Hayi. UThixo wayemkhethile. Ngaphambi kokuba azalwe, Wayemazi kwangaphambili. UYeremiya wathanjiswa. Kwaye usathana omdala uya kuza azame ukudlala phantsi ulungiselelo lwakhe, azame ukuludlalela phantsi. Ndiye ndamenza ukuba ayenze kum, kodwa ingena apha-ngemizuzu emithathu-uyabethwa. Uyazi, yidlalele phantsi, mdlalele phantsi. Ungayidlala njani into edlalwa nguThixo? Amen. Kodwa uSathana uyazama. Ngamanye amazwi, nciphisa into eyiyo, yibeke phantsi. Lumka! Olu thambiso luvela kuPhezukonke. Bazama ukwenza oko kuYeremiya umprofeti, kodwa abazange bakwazi ukumzikisa. Wagxumeka waphinda waphuma. Waphumelela ekugqibeleni. Lonke ilizwi laloo mprofeti liyabhalwa namhlanje; yonke into awayenzayo. Khumbula, [xa] wena unamava eNkosini kwaye uyithanda ngenene iNkosi ngentliziyo yakho yonke, kuya kubakho amanye amaKristu phaya, asenokuzama ukudlala phantsi la mandla makhulu namandla ukholelwa kuwo kunye nokholo. onawo kuThixo, kodwa womelela. USathana uzame oko kwasekuqaleni. Wazama ukuhlalisa Osenyangweni, kodwa [uSathana] wamqhatha. 'Yabona; ngokuthi uya kufana noPhezukonke akazange amenze Oyena Uphakamileyo afane naye. Yhoo mkhulu uThixo! Bangaphi kuni abakholelwayo kuloo nto? Kumnandi ngobu busuku. Ngoko ke, amava akho kunye nendlela okholelwa ngayo kuThixo—ubopheleleke ekubalekeni kokunye koko. Kodwa ukuba ukholwa ngenene entliziyweni yakho, uThixo ukumela.
Ngubani na oya kuphulaphula? Abanyuliweyo baya kuphulaphula iNkosi. Siyazi ukuba oko kuxelwe kwangaphambili kwibhayibhile. UYeremiya wayeza kukuxelela loo nto. UHezekile wayeya kukuxelela loo nto. UDaniyeli angakuxelela loo nto. U-Isaya, umprofeti uya kunixelela loo nto. Bonke abanye abaprofeti baya kukuxelela—abanyuliweyo, abo bamthandayo uThixo, ngabo abaya kuphulaphula. Haleluya! Bangaphi kuni abakholwayo ngaloo nto ngokuhlwanje? Onjani wona umyalezo! Uyazi ukuba ngumyalezo omkhulu wamandla kuloo khasethi. Ukuthanjiswa kweNkosi ukuba kukuhlangule, ukukukhokela, ukukuphakamisa, ukukugcina uhamba noYehova-uhamba kunye neNkosi, ukukhuthaza, ukukunika ukuthanjiswa nokukuphilisa; kukho konke. Khumbula, zonke ezo zinto ziyakwenzeka njengoko iminyaka ivala. Ndiza kukuthandazela ngobu busuku. Nabo baphulaphule le khasethi entliziyweni yenu, yomelelani. Kholwa eNkosini ngentliziyo yakho yonke. Ixesha liyaphela. UThixo usilungiselele izinto ezinkulu. Amen. Wathi ke usathana omdala, heyi—yabona; UYeremiya, ayizange imthintele loo nto. Ngaba kunjalo? Hayi, hayi, hayi. 'Yabona; oko kwakumalunga nesahluko 38 ukusa kwesama-40. Wayeprofeta ukususela kwisahluko sokuqala sikaYeremiya. Waqhubeka nje. Yayingenzi mahluko kwinto awayeyithethile. Abazange bamphulaphule, kodwa waqhubeka ethetha ukuya kutsho apho. Ayenokwenza nantoni na ayifunayo kuye. Kodwa elona Lizwi liPhakamileyo—weva iLizwi laKhe likhwaza njengokuba nisiva elam apha lithetha nje liqhubeka lisihla liphumela phaya.
Ngoku ekugqibeleni, ngokokwazi kwethu kuya kubakho imiqondiso emikhulu. Wathi imisebenzi endiyenzileyo niya kuyenza, kwaye yona loo misebenzi iya kuba ekuphelisweni kwephakade eli. Kwaye ndiyacinga ukuba ngexesha likaYesu kwaphuma amazwi amaninzi endudumo evela ezulwini. [abengathanda] njani ukuhlala ngobunye ubusuku aze eve Oyena Uphakamileyo edudumisa abantu Bakhe? 'Yabona; Ukuba sisondela, lowo unendlebe, makayive into ayithethayo uMoya kuwo amabandla. Ungaba naboni abalishumi abahleli ecaleni kwakho kwaye uThixo angangxola ngokwaneleyo ukuba adilize eso sakhiwo bangeva nelizwi kuso. Kodwa uya kuva. LiLizwi, yabona? Ilizwi elithe cwaka. Kwaye kuya kubakho imiqondiso emikhulu njengoko iminyaka ivala. Kwenzeka into emangalisayo kubantwana bakhe esingazange siyibone ngaphambili. Asazi kanye ukuba nganye nganye iyakuba yintoni na, kodwa siyazi ukuba iyakuba yinto emangalisayo into Ayenzayo.
Ndiza kuthandaza umthandazo omninzi phezu kwenu ngamnye kwaye ndicele iNkosi uThixo ukuba anikhokele. Ndizakuthandaza ukuba iNkosi ikusikelele ngobu busuku. Ndiyakholwa ukuba ngumyalezo omkhulu ukuba uhambe kwaye umamele-iNkosi. Amen. Sele ulungele? Ndiyamva uYesu!
