Isexwayiso sokuhumusha 105 | I-CD yeNtshumayelo kaNeal Frisby #1205

Amen! Nkosi, busisa izinhliziyo zakho. Yeka ukuthi kumnandi kanjani ukuba lapha! Yindawo engcono kakhulu ongaba kuyo. Akunjalo? Futhi iNkosi inathi. Indlu kaNkulunkulu—ayikho into efana nayo. Lapho ugcobo lukhona, lapho abantu bedumisa khona iNkosi, Uhlala lapho-lapho abantu beMdumisa khona. Yilokho Akusho. Ngihlala ezidumisweni zabantu bami futhi ngizonyakaza ngisebenze phakathi kwabo.

Nkosi siyakuthanda namhlanje ekuseni siyakubonga ngalelibandla. Hamba ezinhliziyweni zabo, ngamunye wabo, ephendula imikhuleko yabo, Nkosi, ebenzela izimangaliso, futhi ubanike ukuholwa, Nkosi. Kuzo zonke izicelo ezingashiwongo, zithinte. Futhi abasha, Nkosi, baphefumulela izinhliziyo zabo ukuba babheke ezintweni ezijulile eZwini likaNkulunkulu. Bathinte. Bagcobe, Nkosi. Futhi labo abadinga insindiso: yembula iqiniso lakho elikhulu namandla akho amakhulu Nkosi. Thinta zonke izinhliziyo ndawonye futhi sikukholelwa ezinhliziyweni zethu Nkosi. Ishayele iNkosi ihlombe! Mayibongwe iNkosi uJesu! UNkulunkulu abusise izinhliziyo zenu. Inkosi inibusise.

Hlala phansi. Kumnandi ngempela! Ngifuna ukubonga iNkosi ngabo bonke abantu abathi ekuqaleni bethutha lapha ezansi nalabo abathuthela lapha kamuva nje, ukuba beze kulendawo [Capstone Cathedral]. Ngezinye izikhathi, niyazi, usathane omdala njengoba enza ekuqaleni, uyodikibalisa. Noma ngabe ukuphi, usathane uzozama lokhu, uzozama lokho. Kufana nesimo sezulu; ngolunye usuku kucwebile, ngelinye ilanga liguqubele. Futhi uSathane uzama zonke izinhlobo zezinto ngoba sisondela esikhathini lapho uNkulunkulu ayeyohlanganisa abantu bakhe futhi abasuse. Leso yisikhathi esikuso nesikhathi esiyingozi kakhulu; ukudideka kuzo zonke izingxenye, kuyo yonke indawo esibheka kuyo namuhla. Ngakho-ke, njengoba abantu bebuthana, uSathane ufana nokwethuka, futhi lapho enza [ukwethuka], awu, uzomelana nento yangempela. Ufana nokuzikhulula futhi avumele abanye ukuthi baqhubeke, kodwa into engokoqobo [abantu bangempela/abakhethiweyo bakaNkulunkulu] ehlangana ndawonye futhi ihlangane, yebo, uyozama ukunidikibalisa. Uzozama konke angakwenza ukuze azame ukususa amehlo akho eNkosini uJesu. Ufuna ukugcina amehlo akho eZwini. Kuhle ngempela lokho!

Uma ufuna ukwazi ukuthi siphila esikhathini esizayo, okumele ukwenze nje ukubheka emuva bese ubona okunye kuziphindaphinda namuhla. USathane uyaphila futhi kubaFarisi nokunye. Bangaki kini abakukholwayo na? Manje, niyazi, izintshumayelo ezehlukene-ngaba nezintshumayelo ezehlukene kanjalonjalo kanjalo. Ngasho kahle, Nkosi manje—futhi ngasho lena ngapha—nginezinye [izintshumayelo] zemibhalo ethile futhi ezinye zalokhu, futhi ngithe ngizoshumayela ngayo. Ngezinye izikhathi, ukhuluma kanjalo nje. Futhi iNkosi yangitshela, Yathi amaJuda-Wabe eseqala ukunginika imibhalo ethile. Amen. Uyafuna ukukuzwa?

Kulungile, manje lalela ngokucophelela: UMlilo wasekuqaleni kwakuyiZwi likaNkulunkulu. Umlilo Wokuqala Wokudala esiwubona ezulwini kwakunguLizwi owafika phakathi kwesintu futhi wahlala enyameni. Kunjalo impela. Manje, kwenzekani ngehora lokuhanjelwa kwamaJuda? Awu, babengazi. Uyakukholwa lokho? Kunjalo impela. Kwenzakalani? Ngibhale phansi lokhu lapha. Kwenzekani kubantu namuhla? Ingabe abantu namuhla sebeqala ukwenza njengoba kwenza amaJuda ekufikeni kokuqala kukaKristu lapho ekhuluma nawo? Cishe kuyafana manje, ngabe izinhlelo ziyahlangana ngokumelene neZwi laKhe elimsulwa na? Banengxenye yeZwi, kodwa bahlangana ngokumelene nalabo abanezikhali ezigcwele. Bheka; abalifuni lonke iZwi. Ngabe izinhlelo ziyahlangana ngokumelene neZwi laKhe elimsulwa na? Yebo, lokho kulungile. Ingaphansi, kodwa ihlangana ndawonye. Ngabe bayilalele imiyalelo yomuntu yenqubo yesintu njengoba kwenza amaJuda base bephetha—bathi, babeneZwi, kodwa balibeka kabi iZwi? Babengenayo. NjengamaJuda, umuntu uyakwenza lokho namuhla.

Manje ngaphambi kokuba siqede, sizokhombisa ukuthi iZwi libaluleke kangakanani futhi iZwi linguMlilo wasekuqaleni. Manje uma sifika kulokho, sizothola ukuthi kungani ngishumayele ukuthi iZwi likaNkulunkulu libaluleke kangakanani, ukuthi ngilibophele kanjani enhliziyweni yabantu—ngiletha iZwi likaNkulunkulu, ngilethe imibhalo, ngilivumela ukuthi licwile enhliziyweni. izinhliziyo nokukuvumela ukuthi kwehle enhliziyweni—ngoba lowoMlilo wasekuqaleni unomlilo kuwo. Futhi uma Ekubiza noma uphuma kulelothuna kahle, engikubeke enhliziyweni yakho kuzokukhipha lapho. Akukho okunye ongakwenza. Uzothola ukuthi benze kanjani—bazosho izinto ezimbalwa, kodwa iZwi lishiywe ngaphandle lapho. Bayoletha izinqubo zomuntu namasiko nokunye nokunye. IZwi liwuhlobo lokufihlwa phakathi lapho. Kodwa ngaphandle kwaleloZwi elimsulwa, ngaphandle kwaleloZwi liwela ezinhliziyweni zabo, anizukuba nakho okufunekayo ukuze niphume lapha. Ngeke ube nakho okudingekayo ukuze uphume kulelo thuna. UMlilo wasekuqaleni uyiZwi. Amen. Akekho umuntu ongasondela eMlilo WokuQala, kusho uPawulu. Lowo nguMlilo waPhakade ngempela, kodwa angasondela kuwo ngeZwi. Amen. Futhi kuyabuya futhi Wakubeka eZwini. Ibhayibheli lonke [hhayi] nje amakhasi namashidi. Uma wenza ngakho, kuyasha. Amen. Uma ungakwenzi, kuvele kuhlale lapho kanjalo. Unokhiye wokuyivula. Bheka; abantu benza njengamaJuda ezinhlelweni namuhla.

Ake siqale lapha: AmaJuda awazange akholwe ngoba athola udumo komunye nomunye. Manje, niyalibona yini iphutha? Lapho uJesu efika—wayengaqondile ukuziphakamisa noma okunye okunjalo, kodwa amandla amakhulu kanye nendlela Akhuluma ngayo, kwakubonakala sengathi wayenesandla esiphezulu phezu kwabo ngaso leso sikhathi. Babefuna udumo komunye nomunye, kodwa bengafuni lutho ngoJesu. UJesu wathi: “Ningakholwa kanjani nina enidumisa omunye komunye, ningalufuni udumo oluvela kuNkulunkulu na?” Nifuna kulona ocebile noma ongapha onamandla kwezombusazwe noma ongapha onalokhu, kodwa anifuni ukuhlonishwa eNkosini. Wathi, “Ungakholwa kanjani na?” Lowo nguJohane 5:54. AmaJuda abona, kodwa awakholwa. Kodwa ngithi kini nani ningibonile, ningibhekile, futhi niyibonile imisebenzi yami engiyenzile kodwa anikholwa. Uma umbuka ngqo, uthi, “Bangakwenza kanjani lokho emhlabeni na?” O, awu, uma ungeyona inzalo yasekuqaleni futhi ungeyona imvu, ungakwenza lokho. Amen? Manje abeZizwe khona onyakeni esiphila kuwo njengamanje, isikhathi esiphila kuso, kulula kangakanani kuSathane ukubaphuphuthekisa kanye noMesiya, uKristu, ukuba ashelele aqonde ezandleni zabo njengamaJuda ngoba angifuni ukuzwa ngakho ngaleso sikhathi! Bheka; babenazo zonke izinhlobo zezinye izinhlelo. Babenazo zonke izinhlobo zezinkinga zabo futhi babengafuni ukuzwa—ngesikhathi efika ngaso, ngehora eliqondile lokuvakashelwa.

Namuhla, izikhathi eziningi abezwa ngakho, niyabo? Isikhathi esiphila kuso namhlanje nokuningi okwenzekayo-ngezinye izikhathi ukuchuma, abantu babonakala benza kahle izikhathi ngezikhathi nokunjalo kanjalo, nezindlela eziningi kakhulu abangasusa ngazo ukunaka kwabo, izinkathazo zalokhu kuphila. —bakhetha ukungezwa ngevangeli leNkosi uJesu Kristu. Bheka; benza ngendlela efanayo. Eqinisweni, Wathi bayofulathela izindlebe zabo ekugcineni eqinisweni futhi babe njengobuwula [baphendule izindlebe zabo ezinganekwaneni] nokunye kanjalo (2 Thimothewu 4:4). Bheka; kuyoba njengephupho nokunye—futhi basuse izindlebe zabo eqinisweni. Wathi ningibonile, anikholwa (Johane 6:36). Namuhla ngisho nezimangaliso nangamandla amakhulu okushumayela iZwi laKhe nogcobo, neziyalezo njengoba uMoya oNgcwele empeleni uvunguza phezu komhlaba, uzama ukuguqula izinhliziyo zabo, benza kuyo ngendlela efanayo [njengamaJuda]. ]. Futhi bambuka ngqo. Manje amaJuda ayengeke alikholwe iqiniso. Bebengeke nje bakwenze, niyabo? Manje, namuhla, ukuthi kuyini lokhu—bona ukuthi abantu baqhuba kanjani. Kungani agxeka amaJuda uma enza into efanayo? Manje amaJuda ayeneBhayibheli, iTestamente Elidala. Babethi iTestamente Elidala. Bathi uMose. Babiza u-Abrahama. Basho konke ukuze bakhiphe uJesu Kristu. Kodwa babengenaye ngisho noMose. Babengenaye ngisho no-Abrahama futhi babengenalo iTestamente Elidala. Babecabanga ukuthi baneTestamente Elidala, kodwa lalihlelwe kabusha abaFarisi ohlelweni lwezombangazwe. Yayihlelwe kabusha; lapho uJesu efika, yingakho babengamazi. USathane wayebandulele ngaphambili futhi konke lokho wayeboshwe ngezindlela ezihlukene ukuze bangakwazi ukumbona uMesiya futhi [uSathane] wayazi kahle ukuthi wenzani kubo.

Manje khumbulani, akuwona wonke amaJuda ayinzalo kaIsrayeli. Kunezinhlobo ezahlukene zamaJuda nazo zonke izinhlobo zengxubevange yamaJuda. Ngokusobala, [amanye amaJuda ayeyofika] abeZizwe noma ayengadlula osizini olukhulu lapho. Kodwa uIsrayeli, umJuda wangempela, lowo uKristu abuyela kuye ekupheleni kwenkathi futhi Uyomsindisa. Uyobabuyisela ndawonye lapho. Kodwa umJuda wamanga, nomJuda oyisoni, nalowo ongalamukeli [iZwi], uyofana nje noweZizwe. Uyoqhubeka ngqo ophakweni lwesilo nokunjalo kanjalo. Ngakho, kunomehluko phakathi kwawo wonke amaJuda kanye nomehluko phakathi kuka-Israyeli nomJuda wangempela. Ngakho, uJesu wagijimela kwabanye balabo ababengewona ama-Israyeli angempela. Ayengewona ama-Israyeli angempela kodwa ayehlala ezindaweni lapho ama-Israyeli angempela okwakufanele ahlale khona. Abaningi kuma-Israyeli bamamukela bekude. Kodwa ivangeli laphendukela kwabezizwe. Manje, asizwane; enye intshumayelo lapho.

AmaJuda awazange alikholelwe iqiniso. “Futhi ngokuba nginitshela iqiniso, aniyikungikholwa.” Manje lokho kukuJohane 8:45. Nginitshelile iqiniso, futhi ngoba nginitshele iqiniso, futhi ngavusa abafileyo, ngaphulukisa inkosi, futhi ngenza izimangaliso, aniyikukholwa kimi. Ngoba babeqeqeshelwe ukukholelwa amanga futhi babengakholelwa iqiniso. Manje zonke izinhlelo namuhla, ezingaphandle cishe kwe-10% noma i-15% yamakholwa eqiniso noma eduze kwamakholwa eqiniso—ziqeqeshwe kakhulu ngokwesiko, kakhulu ngokumelene namandla eqiniso kaNkulunkulu. Bazisho ukuthi uNkulunkulu, isimo sikaNkulunkulu, kodwa bayawuphika uMoya weqiniso, uMlilo wasekuqaleni oyiZwi likaNkulunkulu langempela, futhi kuyoba njalo, ngokuya ngokuya kuvala unyaka. Manje, abaFarisi, ababhali nabaSadusi—iSanhedrini—babuthana bonke futhi bahlangana. Kwakungokwenkolo nezombusazwe futhi baquliswa icala ngaleyo ndlela ngoJesu. Eqinisweni, icala Lakhe labanjwa ngaphambi kokuba afike. Konke kwavunywa. Amen. Akazange abe nalo ithuba lapho. Abezombangazwe nabezenkolo bahlangana bamangalela uJesu. AmaRoma ayelapho nje, uPontiyu Pilatu, bonke—lapho nje. KwakungamaJuda, uPawulu wathi, abulala uKristu. Futhi kwakungamaRoma angenzanga lutho ngakho futhi ama nje lapho. Kwakuyisimiso sezombangazwe nesimiso senkolo esasihlangana ndawonye; eyaziwa ngokuthi yiSanhedrin, eyakwehlisela lokho phezu kukaJesu, Ayeyazi ngesikhathi sokufika kwaKhe, ukuthi Wayezohamba nini. Wayelapho. Wathi nginitshelile, kepha anikholwa, ningibhekile; Manje namuhla, sineZwi likaNkulunkulu. Sinokholo lwethu futhi siyamkholwa ngenhliziyo yethu yonke. Ngandlela thize uMoya oNgcwele wenze okuthile kwabeZizwe. Usehambe ngendlela yokuthi leyonhliziyo ivuleke ukuze yamukele lelovangeli noma kungaba njengamaJuda ngezinye izikhathi. Bangaki kini abakukholwayo lokho na? Nokho, bonke abanye abeZizwe [abangokwenkolo] bafana ncamashí nabaFarisi. Bayohlanganyela nezwe lezombangazwe futhi bagibele phezu kwalo okwesikhashana, esiloni esikhulu [umphik’ ukristu] bese bevulwa. Manje, asingene lapha. Lowo omunye umlayezo ojulile.

Nakuba amaJuda ambona uKristu—impilo engenasono, ukuphelela Kwakhe [umsebenzi Wakhe], izimangaliso Zakhe, izimangaliso—abazange bakholwe. Akunandaba ukuthi Ukhulumeni. Akunandaba ukuthi yiziphi izibonakaliso Azinikeza. Akunandaba ukuthi Ujike ngayiphi indlela. Noma ngabe unamandla kangakanani. Noma ngabe lungakanani uthando lwaphezulu. Noma ngabe unamandla kangakanani. Abazange nje futhi abakholwanga. Basusa izindlebe zabo eqinisweni balalela umuntu. Manje niyabona ukuthi kungani kunzima kangaka namuhla ukuqoqela abantu eZwini elimsulwa likaNkulunkulu, kodwa lizofika. Manje uMlilo wasekuqaleni-isiqu Asinikeza-yiZwi leQiniso. Ekupheleni kwalokhu nizothola—futhi ekugcineni, Wanginika imibhalo ukuze ngifakazele ukuthi kungani. Manje njengoba kuqubuka uMlilo wasekuqaleni, indawo yonke yadalwa nazo zonke izinto uNkulunkulu ake azidala, izingelosi nakho konke. LowoMlilo wasekuqaleni phandle lapho lapho Ekhuluma. UMlilo, uMlilo wasekuqaleni uyakhuluma. Kwase kuthi-ke ekupheleni kwesikhathi, uMlilo wasekuqaleni uyiZwi elehlela enyameni futhi lakhazinyuliswa. Manje sizothola ukuthi uMlilo Woqobo uzokwenzelani nokuthi kungani uzophila futhi noma uhunyushwe. Amen.

Manje bhekisisani: kumaJuda, WayeyiNsika yoMlilo enyameni, iBhayibheli liyakusho lokho. UyiNsika yoMlilo, iNkanyezi yokusa Ekhanyayo. Lapho Wayesenyameni. WayeyiMpande futhi eyiNzalo futhi. Lokho kuyakuxazulula lokho, akunjalo? Manje isahluko 1 sikaJohane, amaJuda ayengafuni ukuzwa. Ngakho-ke, abakwazanga ukuqonda. UJesu wathi: “Kungani ningakwazi ukukhuluma kwami ​​na? Ngoba Wathi, anikwazi ukuzwa. Babengafuni ukuvula izindlebe zabo ezingokomoya. Manje, namuhla, thatha umlayezo onjengalona futhi uma uhlala phansi lapha, ungabangenisa lapha, ngaphambi kwenkonzo—bonke abaFarisi ababambelele engxenyeni yeZwi likaNkulunkulu—bayoqala ukundiza bephuma ngaphandle. lezi zihlalo. Ubungeke ubabambe ngesibhamu. Kungani kunjalo? Banomoya ongalungile, isho iNkosi. Ngumoya okubo ogxuma ugijime. Uletha leliZwi kanje; ekupheleni kwesikhathi leloZwi lifanele lifike ngaleyondlela kungenjalo akekho ozohunyushwa futhi akekho oyophuma ethuneni. IZwi lifanele lifike ngaleyondlela futhi emva kokuba seliqede inkambo yalo phezulu njengoba uNkulunkulu eshumayela leloZwi, khona-ke lizovutha. Ngiqonde ukuthi noma ubani olalela lokho noma oseduze nalokho noma okholwa leloZwi enhliziyweni yakhe, bazohamba! Baphuma kulelothuna. UNkulunkulu uzokwenza.

Manje, ngakho amaJuda, awazange ezwe. Abakwazanga futhi abakwazanga. Manje, amaZwi kaKristu, ukwahlulela ekugcineni labo abangakholwanga. Wona kanye amazwi Akhe awakhuluma ayobahlulela. Manje amaJuda, ayezenqaba iziprofetho zemibhalo futhi benqaba kuzo zonke izinhlangothi. AmaJuda ayengenawo amazwi kaNkulunkulu ahlala kuwo. Futhi bheka; bathi bakwenzile. Lalela lokhu lapha: batshelwa ukuthi bahlole imibhalo ababethi bayayikholwa. UJesu wathi uyavuma—futhi kulo lonke iTestamente Elisha uzobona amazwibela eTestamente Elidala lapho uJesu ayeyocaphuna khona iTestamente Elidala. Kwakunemibhalo eminingi [izinkulumo] kunalokhu okucabangayo futhi Wayelokhu ecaphuna leyo mibhalo kuze kube yilapho. Wathi nizisholo ukuthi niyayazi imibhalo. Ziphendle ngoba zikhuluma ngami futhi ngafika njengokusho kwemibhalo engcwele. Batshelwa ukuba bahlole imibhalo ababethi bayayikholelwa. Kodwa bhekani; abakwazanga. Babeqeqeshelwe ukukholelwa ingxenye yeqiniso noma amanga. Babeqeqeshwe kanjalo. Yayingekho enye indlela owawungawukhulula ngayo kubo. Umbhalo kaMose wasola ukungakholwa kwamaJuda. Indlela Abhala ngayo yakhombisa ukungakholwa kwamaJuda. Balahlwa ngalokho, kusho uJesu. AmaJuda ayesukile eZwini, uMlilo wasekuqaleni neZwi, iNsika yoMlilo eyafika yanikeza leloZwi. Base bekhukhulekile kuze kube manje naseTestamenteni Elidala—AbaFarisi bema lapho beMbhekile nakho konke lokho, bahlanganyela nabaSadusi futhi bahlanganyela nababhali nokunye kanjalo kanjalo bemelene noJesu. BabeneTestamente Elidala, kodwa base belihlele kabusha ngendlela enjalo.

Izinsuku esiphila kuzo, uma ungalishumayeli iZwi likaNkulunkulu ngalokho eliyikho impela, futhi ushumayele iZwi likaNkulunkulu, iZwi likaNkulunkulu elimsulwa, konke onakho wuhlelo lwemali futhi udedele izibonakaliso. landela. Kungani bonke labo ngisho nalabo abashumayela insindiso kancane njalo njalo—kungani bonke labo abashumayela insindiso kancane kancane beqala ukuphendukela kuzo zonke izimiso esizibona namuhla? Sidinga uMlilo Woqobo. Kuneqembu elilodwa elingeke lijike libe yinqubo futhi yilabo abakhethiweyo bakaNkulunkulu abaneZwi likaNkulunkulu. Bazophuma lapha futhi bazophuma lapha maduze nje! Ngenkathi Esho kimi engangizoshumayela ngakho—ukuqhathanisa amaJuda nabeZizwe—Uqhathanisa nabeZizwe manje, ababhishobhi beZizwe, abashumayeli beZizwe, abapristi beZizwe njalonjalo, zonke lezo zinqubo ezinkulu ezahlehlela emuva. iZwi likaNkulunkulu futhi unikeze abantu ingxenye yalokho kuphela. Futhi lokho kubonakala kuvumelana nenyama. Abasafuni lutho ngayo ngoba ngeke ihambisane nendlela abafuna ukwenza ngayo lapha emhlabeni. Ngokufanayo, njengoba izwe linjalo, awukho umehluko uma umuntu eya esontweni noma uma engayi lapho. Abanalo iZwi likaNkulunkulu. Futhi ngeke bezwe. Bheka; baqeqeshiwe. Ngakho-ke, lapho lowo msindo ufika phakathi kwamabili, lezo [zintombi] zalala futhi abavukile bavuka lapho. Bheka; baqeqeshiwe. Babengakwazi ukuzwa iqiniso. Bheka; baqeqeshelwe ukuzwa amanga. Uma uqamba amanga, bazovuka. Amen. Yilokho umphikukristu akwenzayo; uqamba amanga. Bazovuka, niyabo?

Ngakho ukungakholwa kuMose kwaphumela ekungakholwani kuKristu. Kepha uma ningakholwa imibhalo kaMose, niyakukholwa kanjani amazwi ami, kusho uJesu na? (Bala uJohane 5:17, 47.) UMose wanikeza umthetho, kodwa amaJuda awazange awugcine umthetho. Futhi lapha beza kuYe futhi bathi, “SinoMose nabaprofethi. Babezokhuphukela kuloMfo Oyedwa. Babezophambana naLowo, uNkulunkulu uMprofethi. Bathi sinoMose nabo bonke abaprofethi noAbrahama. Wathi, Ngangikhona ngaphambi kuka-Abrahama. Ngikhulume naye. Wajabulela ukubona usuku lwami. Ngema etendeni. Ngangimi kumzimba womoya ngenkathi ngikhuluma noAbrahama.” Khumbula lapho [u-Abrahama] ethi: iNkosi. Wambiza ngokuthi iNkosi, nakuba kwakumi amadoda amathathu; iNkosi. Bangaki kini abakukholwayo lokho na? WaMbiza kanjalo. Futhi Wema enyameni yomoya, okusho ukuthi uNkulunkulu wehla esesimweni senyama futhi wakhuluma noAbrahama. Yathi-ke iNkosi kubo, Yathi u-Abrahama wabona usuku lwami wajabula etendeni lapho ngikhona. Kuyilokho impela Ayekusho-Ngase ngehla ngabhubhisa labo ababengakholwa ezansi eSodoma naseGomora. Yona kanye [into] Ayezama ukuyitshela amaJuda futhi athi, sinabo bonke abaprofethi emva kwethu, sinoMose ngemuva kwethu futhi sino-Abrahama emva kwethu. UJesu wathi, babengeke benze noma yini njengalokho uMose ayekushilo, ukwenza noma umthetho. Bathi banomthetho, konke kusontekile. Babesonteke umthetho—iTestamente Elidala—konke okwakuyikho, kwakuwuhlelo lwemali.

Uma ungashumayeli—kulungile, ngithatha iminikelo. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu kufanele uqhubeke futhi ngiyalwe ukuba ngenze lokho futhi kufanele uqhubeke. Kodwa ngesikhathi esifanayo uma iZwi elimsulwa lingashunyayelwa namandla ayisimangaliso phakathi lapho, ngokuvamile, livele liphele njengomsebenzi. Bangaki kini abakwaziyo lokho na? Yilokho okufanele sikubheke namuhla. Izokhuluma ngokwenzekayo yonke indawo, abantu abahlukene namuhla nalokho okwenzekayo. Bheka; basuka kuleloZwi. Bukani ukuthi benzani: basuka eMlilweni wasekuqaleni oyiZwi likaNkulunkulu. Kufanele—uma uzoshumayela ivangeli elimsulwa, khona-ke siyazi ukuthi lizoya eNkosini. Kulungile. UMose wanikeza umthetho, kodwa amaJuda awazange awugcine umthetho. Imibhalo ayinakwephulwa, Wathi. Nokho, amaJuda awazange akholwe futhi uJesu, emi lapho, futhi Wabatshela ukuthi ngeke kwaphulwa. AmaJuda ayengebona abakaNkulunkulu futhi uJesu wathi, nina ningabakayihlo, udeveli uqobo. Amen. AmaJuda ayengenalo uthando lukaNkulunkulu kuwo. AmaJuda ayengamazi uNkulunkulu. Abangesibo abezimvu zikaNkulunkulu abakholwa. Manje kukhona uIsrayeli wangempela futhi kukhona uIsrayeli wamanga, kodwa babengezona izimvu zikaNkulunkulu futhi abakholwanga. Izimvu zami ziyangazi. Manje uyabona, ungashumayela futhi ungenza konke okufunayo? Kwesinye isikhathi uthi, “Uzobakholisa kanjani emhlabeni? Bangaki kulomhlaba abangalalela iZwi likaNkulunkulu elimsulwa namandla amangalisayo eNkosi na? Namuhla ekuseni emhlabeni wonke, ungase uthole u-10% noma u-15% ukuze ugxumele ngemva kwawo futhi lokho kungase kube kuningi kakhulu.

Kodwa njengoba unyaka uvala, Wethembisa ukunyakazisa phezu kwayo yonke inyama. Lizofika phezu kwayo yonke inyama kodwa lokho akusho ukuthi bonke bazolithola. Bangaki kini abakukholwayo lokho na? Ngakho, siba nokunyakazisa okukhulu. Kuzoba umsebenzi osheshayo futhi onamandla. Nokho, phakathi nosizi olukhulu, Usebenza kakhulu, ngandlela-thile emsebenzini wamaJuda. Usizi olukhulu, njengesihlabathi solwandle, okungelinye iqembu. Uqhubeka esebenza phakathi nenkulungwane yeminyaka. Kuvela obala ekwaHlulweni kwesiHlalo sobukhosi esiMhlophe emuva kwesikhathi eside abakhethiweyo sebenyuselwe phezulu. Ngikholwa ukuthi sisenkathini. Abakhethiweyo bayothathwa esizukulwaneni sethu. Siya ngokuya sisondela kuyo. Ngakho siyathola, labo abangezona izimvu zikaNkulunkulu abakholwa. AmaJuda awakholwa futhi ayengezona ezezimvu zikaNkulunkulu. Abamamukelanga uKristu, kodwa Wathi ngoba aningamukelanga futhi ngiza eGameni likaBaba, iNkosi uJesu Kristu, futhi animamukelanga, omunye uyofika ngegama lakhe, umphikukristu, futhi niyomamukela. AmaJuda, kuyo yonke le mibhalo, asusa izindlebe zawo eqinisweni. Kwakuyisifundo kwabeZizwe. Kwakuyisifundo emhlabeni wonke. Awenza kahle umsebenzi wawo, amaJuda ngaleso sikhathi—amaJuda amanga enza. Ngamunye wabo nakho konke abakwenzayo kwakuyisiyalo ngathi ukuba singafani nabo ngokungakholwa. Wayeya esonweni emgwaqeni, kulabo abenze zonke izinhlobo zezono futhi bazivume [kuye] kuye, nakubantu bonke, abampofu nabahlukahlukene futhi babeza kuye. Abanye babacebile nabo benza, kodwa hhayi abaningi kakhulu kubo. Wayeya kubo [abampofu nezoni] futhi Wemukelwa-amandla amakhulu izikhathi eziningi-kodwa kubaFarisi nezinqubo zebandla zangalolosuku kanye nenqubo yezombangazwe yangalolosuku amaphesenti ayikhulu amvukela.

Kuyoba yini ekupheleni kwenkathi? Njengaphambi kwabantu abaludinga ngempela usizo, isoni esifuna ngempela ukuphendukela kuNkulunkulu—abanye babo abangeke basinike ihora lokuba phakathi kwabo kulawo mabandla—sizophendukela kuNkulunkulu. UNkulunkulu uyohlanganisa abantu Bakhe ngendlela yokuthi uzobahumusha. Amen. Manje leloZwi—libaluleke kangakanani iZwi, kulokhu ukusa, ukulibeka enhliziyweni yakho. AmaJuda akwenqaba futhi afela ezonweni zawo. UJesu wathi, nizofela ezonweni zenu. Manje abafileyo ngokomoya bangcwaba abafileyo benyama, kusho uJesu. Ikholwa liyodlula ekufeni komoya [ngokwenyama] liye ekuphileni komoya. Abafileyo abezwa iZwi likaKristu bayophila. Labo abenzeni? Yizwa iZwi likaKristu. Labo abalaziyo iZwi leNkosi. Odla isinkwa esivela ezulwini kayikufa. Isinkwa esivela ezulwini siyiZwi likaNkulunkulu. Manje kuyeza-lapho lowoMlilo, lapho lawomandla azosebenza khona. Lalela lokhu lapha: Ogcina amazwi kaKristu akasoze afa. Lokho kuwukukhuluma ngokomoya. Akasoze afe, lowo ogcina amazwi kaKristu. Vumela lawa mazwi acwile enhliziyweni yakho.

Manje yini umehluko phakathi kwamaJuda noma labobaFarisi nabeZizwe namuhla ababengafuni ukulalela iZwi likaNkulunkulu na? Uyini umehluko lapho? Abanawo uMlilo wasekuqaleni oyiZwi kubo. Ngeke bavuke futhi ngeke bahumushe ngoba ngeke bavumele leloZwi licwile enhliziyweni yabo. Awukwazi ukufika lapho nganoma iyiphi enye indlela. Lifanele lehle futhi licwile phakathi lapho ngokukholwa kuNkulunkulu. Futhi lowo ogcina amazwi kaKristu akasoze afe ngokomoya. Ngempela uyayibeka lapho! Wamangalela enye inkathi yebandla—iSardesi—washo lokhu: “Babenayo imisebenzi, kodwa babefile ngokomoya. Aqhubeke akhulume, Wathi abaseKapernawume bayoyiswa esihogweni, eHayidesi [Mathewu 11:23]. Isicebi safa. Yaphakamisa amehlo ayo eHayidese, kepha enye [uLazaru] yathathwa kanye nezingelosi. Kwakukhona umhosha omkhulu olungisiwe lapho. Bese ithi lapha: Ukukholelwa emibhalweni engcwele ukuphela kwethemba lokuphunyuka eHayidesi noma esihogweni. Bangaki kini abakukholwayo lokho na? UJesu wasesithi: Ngilezihluthulelo zokufa lesihogo. ngiphila kuze kube phakade. Bangaki kini abakukholwayo lokho khona lapho na? Kanjalo nalo [iZwi] aniyikufa naphakade. Kungani? LeloZwi litshalwe lapho. Ngaphandle kokwenza izimanga, noma ngingayaphi, noma kwenzekani sinezimangaliso esiziphiwa uNkulunkulu. Ngaphandle kwezimangaliso nokugcotshwa okwenzeka mihla namalanga uma sithandazela abagulayo, ngiyazi ukuthi kubaluleke kakhulu ukubeka leloZwi, elifana naleso simangaliso. Ngaphandle kokubeka leloZwi enhliziyweni, isimangaliso sisodwa ngeke sibafikise lapho. Kuzoba nzima kakhulu ukufika lapho. Ungasibona leso simangaliso, kodwa akukho okufana neZwi elibekwe enhliziyweni yakho.

Manje, uMlilo wasekuqaleni owakhuluma yonke into yaba khona useZwini elitshalwe enhliziyweni yakho. Uma uzwa leliZwi ngaphambili—uma Ekhala futhi ethi, “Phuma”—uyazi ukuthi iZwi livumelana nawe naleloZwi lasekuqaleni elitshalwe kuwe lizovutha. Uma ikwenza, nalapho ivutha, lowomzimba uzokhazinyuliswa. Futhi thina esisele futhi esiphilayo—lowo mlilo ofanayo uzokhazimulisa umzimba wethu. Kulungile! Ngakho, into efanayo eyadala nonke iyona kanye into ezoba ngaphakathi kwenu ngesimo seZwi. Futhi uma Ekhuluma leloZwi, lizoshintsha libe nguMlilo okhazimulisiwe. Ngakho imfihlo yile: Gcina iZwi likaNkulunkulu enhliziyweni yakho ngaso sonke isikhathi futhi ulilalele. Ningafani namaJuda, kusho uJesu. Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi wenzani, kwakungeke bakholise. Bheka; babengesibo abezimvu zaKhe. Futhi into efanayo namhlanje, labo abangebona abezimvu zaKhe, ungeke wenze lutho ngakho phandle lapho. Bavele bafulathele izindlebe zabo eqinisweni. Kodwa babeyoba abaningi ababeyoqala ukuzwa okwengeziwe lapho uMoya oNgcwele uvunguza emhlabeni wonke, lowoMlilo wasekuqaleni uvunguza phakathi lapho. Uyongenisa abantu Bakhe bokugcina ekupheleni kwenkathi bevela emigwaqweni emikhulu nasezintangweni nasezindaweni zonke. Kuyoba khona ukuthululwa okukhulu. Kuzothinta ngisho namabandla. Kuzoba mfushane futhi kunamandla. Kuzothinta amanye amabandla omlando lapho, kodwa ikakhulukazi kuzofika kulabo abaneZwi enhliziyweni yabo—elivela emvuleni yokuqala—bangena manje engxenyeni yokugcina yamandla kaNkulunkulu. Kuyoba nomsebenzi osheshayo—futhi amathuna—labo abahamba nathi bayovuswa baphume lapho. Siyobahlanganisa nabo emoyeni futhi siyohlangana Naye! Bangaki kini abakholwa yilokho?

Lelo yiZwi lasekuqaleni. Ungumlilo, Amandla Okudala Oqobo. Lowo Mlilo Woqobo awufani nomlilo ongawufanisa. Akufani nebhomu le-athomu. Akufani nezinga lokushisa elishisa kakhulu kulo mhlaba. Kuyinto ephilayo. Yadala zonke izinto ezake zeza futhi kukhulunywa eZwini kanjalo. Ngakho, uMlilo wasekuqaleni uyiZwi likaNkulunkulu. NoMlilo wasekuqaleni owadala indawo yonke wema khona lapho kuJesu. Nango [Yena] emi khona lapho. Ngakho, leloZwi elicwila enhliziyweni yakho lizokuhumusha noma uzophuma kulelothuna. Bangaki kini abakukholwayo lokho kulokhu ukusa na? INkosi yathi, letha ukubaluleka kweZwi ngezimangaliso. Zihlanganise futhi lapho uhlanganisa okuyisimangaliso neZwi likaNkulunkulu futhi ulilandele, khona-ke usunokuthile okuphakathi nendawo [kwa] lapho uNkulunkulu akufuna khona lapho. Khona-ke uNkulunkulu uzolungisa izinto empilweni yakho. Uzokusiza. Faka iZwi lapho futhi uzobona izimangaliso eziningi futhi.

Ngifuna ume ngezinyawo zakho kulokhu ukusa phakathi lapha. Uma umusha, cishe ngeke ukujwayele ukuzwa izintshumayelo ezinjengalezi. Nginitshela into eyodwa, kukhona abanye abashumayeli abathi mhlawumbe bashumayele kanjalo. Noma kunjalo lokhu—khona impela ekupheleni kwenkathi—yilokhu okuzosusa lelo bandla. Wena uthi, “Mhlawumbe iNkosi izokwenza ngenye indlela, mhlawumbe iNkosi izovele ikhombise izimangaliso kanjalonjalo futhi ikwenze ngenye indlela.” Cha, cha, cha. Uzokwenza kanjena nje. Ungathembela kukho! Ngeke kushintshe. Ungavusa abanye abaprofethi bamanga abangu-400 baka-Ahabi noJezebeli. Ungavusa izigidi eziyishumi kulaba baprofethi bamanga emhlabeni futhi ungavusa bonke abaholi kulo mhlaba. Ungavusa wonke umuntu kulomhlaba ukuba acabange ukuthi kukhona akwaziyo kwisayense nokunjalo kanjalo. Angikhathali ukuthi bathini. Kuzoba njena. Kufanele kufike ngaleloZwi eliKhulunyiweyo lapho lowoMlilo uvutha phakathi lapho. Manje asidumise uNkulunkulu kulokhu ukusa ukuthi siyakuqonda konke lokho. Kungakho ngishumayela iZwi futhi ngilethe enhliziyweni yakho phakathi lapho, futhi ngethemba ukuthi lixhumeke lapho kuze kube phakade. Amen. Futhi lokho kuzokusiza nakanjani. Izohlala nawe ebuhleni nasebubini; kuyohlala kuwena. Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi kwenzekani, kuyoba lapho nawe.

Manje uma udinga uJesu kulokhu ukusa, okumele ukwenze nje ukumamukela. UyiZwi. Yamukela uJesu enhliziyweni yakho. Njengoba ngishilo, awekho isigidi samagama ahlukene noma amahlelo. Awekho amasistimu ahlukene ayisigidi. Inye kuphela iNkosi uJesu. Lowo nguYe. UyaMamukela enhliziyweni yakho. Uyaphenduka enhliziyweni yakho; uthi ngiyakuthanda Jesu futhi uthole leloZwi likaNkulunkulu. Uzokuqondisa. Nika uNkulunkulu inkazimulo! Amen. Kulungile, ujabule manje? Ingabe uyajabula? Uyazi iNkosi ithanda imimoya ejabulayo. Niyazi zazingekho izikhathi eziningi lapho Wayekhona ehleka ngaso sonke isikhathi; Wayenento enjalo—iminyaka emithathu nengxenye kuphela [Isikhathi senkonzo yeNkosi uJesu Kristu]—wayenomyalezo onzima okwakumelwe awulethe. Kodwa ibhayibheli lathi, wajabula ngoba umyalezo onjalo wawufihliwe kulabo ababengawufuni noma kunjalo; bonke labobantu phandle lapho ezinhlelweni nokunjalo kanjalo njengamaJuda emuva lapho. Wajabula ngalokho, akunjalo? Wayazi ukumiselwa kusengaphambili, ukunakekela—Wayezazi zonke lezi zinto futhi zisezandleni Zakhe futhi Usiyisa ekhaya.

Ngifuna ujabule namhlanje ekuseni. Asibonge nje iNkosi. Siyeza esontweni ukuzokhonza kanti yena uhlala ezidumisweni zabantu bakhe. Beka izandla zakho emoyeni. Qalani ukudumisa uJehova! Usukulungele? Wonke umuntu ulungile? Woza, Bruce [dumisa futhi ukhulekele umzalwane]! Dumisani uNkulunkulu! Ngiyabonga Jesu. Ngiyamuzwa, hawu! Ngiyamuzwa manje!
