UMZUZU WOGUQULELO 18
Nakuba kubonakala kungaqhelekanga, kodwa kuyinyaniso. UThixo uyabavusa abantu bakhe kuba ukumka kwethu ngequbuliso kusondele. Kodwa kwangaxeshanye kukho abo bamelwe ngu-2nd Petros 3:1-7 equka, “Besithi, Liphi na idinga lokufika kwakhe? Kuba kuseloko oobawo balalayo ukufa, zonke izinto zahlala zihleli zinjengokwasekuqalekeni kwendalo. Kuba oku kufihlakele kubo ngokuthanda kwabo, ukuba izulu laye likho kwakudala, nomhlaba uvele emanzini, umi emanzini, ngelizwi likaThixo.”
Kwiveki ephelileyo omnye udade emthandazweni weva la mazwi, “ISIQEPHU ESIZA KUTHWALA ABANGCWELE. Wayithumela ebantwini kwaye ndandingomnye wabo bayifumeneyo. Indawo esisuka kuyo inokuba naphi na, inqwelo-mafutha okanye isithuthi sinokuba nakuyiphi na imilo kunye nobukhulu. Khumbula 2nd Kumkani 2:11 , “kwabonakala inqwelo yomlilo, namahashe omlilo, yabahlula bobabini; wenyuka uEliya ngomoya ovuthuzayo, waya emazulwini. U-Eliya wayeyindoda engatshatanga kodwa inguqulelo iya kubandakanya abantu abaninzi kwaye ngubani owaziyo uhlobo lwenqwelo-mafutha okanye ubugcisa obunokusisa ezulwini. Xa sibona uYesu Krestu efini sonke siyakuphuma kubuchwephesha okanye ubugcisa butshintshe siye kwenye into kuba umxhuzulane awuyi kuba namandla phezu kwethu. Usenokuzibuza ukuba ingaba oku kunokuba njalo; kodwa khumbula ikwayintshukumo yokomoya kaThixo. Amawaka aliqela abantu aphuma eYiputa noMoses, behamba entlango iminyaka engamashumi amane, kwaye izihlangu nempahla azizange ziguge, kuba uYehova wayebathwele ngenye indlela ebizwa ngokuba ngamaphiko okhozi, funda iEksodus 19:4; funda iDuteronomi 29:5 neDuteronomi 8:4 . UYehova wabathwala, uhlanga lonke ngamaphiko okhozi. Ngubani na owaziyo ukuba wenze ntoni ukuze inguqulelo isigoduse. Akusayi kubakho bantu bagwenxa kolu bhabhalaza nangona uThixo wabavumela abathile babo ukuba babe ngamaphiko okhozi ukuya kwilizwe ledinga. Olu bhabha luzayo lusiya kwilizwe ledinga lokwenyani, uzuko.
Ngale ntsasa yangoLwesithathu ephupheni lobusuku, indoda yadibana nam yaza yandazisa ukuba umsebenzi wezandla wokuguqulela ufikile. Ndaphendula ndathi, ewe abo bayayo benza amalungiselelo abo okugqibela ukuze bakwazi ukungena ngexesha elimisiweyo. Kananjalo ndathi kwindoda leyo, Kuyimfuneko ukuba ingene ebungcweleni nasebungcweleni; nokuba aba bantu basebenzela ubungcwele nobunyulu ngoku. (Inokuthetha okuthile kwabanye kwaye akukho nto kwabanye, yenza isigwebo sakho sobuqu, liphupha nje lasebusuku.)
AmaGalati 5 aya kukwazisa ukuba imisebenzi yenyama ayihambi nobungcwele nobunyulu. Ke sona isiqhamo soMoya likhaya lobungcwele nobunyulu. Ukungena kobu bugcisa isiqhamo soMoya ngobungcwele nobunyulu siyimfuneko ngokupheleleyo.
Inguqulelo kukudibana noThixo kunye Mat. 5:8 ifundeka ngolu hlobo: “Banoyolo abahlambulukileyo intliziyo; ngokuba baya kumbona uThixo bona.” Funda kwakhona u-1st Petros 1:14-16 , “Njengabantwana abathobelayo, ningamilisi okwangaphambili ngokweenkanuko zokungazi kwenu; Ngenxa enokuba kubhaliwe kwathiwa, Yibani ngcwele; ngokuba ndingcwele mna. Qiniseka ukuba ukuhamba kwethu kukufuphi. Hlalani nilungile, lindani, nithandaze. worhola ntoni na, ibe sisananelo somphefumlo wakho? komnceda ntoni na umntu, ukuba uthe walizuza ihlabathi liphela, waza wonakalelwa ke ngumphefumlo wakhe?
