ASIBEKE IZIMPI ZOKUKHANYA
KwabaseRoma 13:12 ethi, “Ubusuku sebudlulile, imini isisondele; ngakho-ke asilahle imisebenzi yobumnyama, futhi masihlome izikhali zokukhanya. ” Qhathanisa ingxenye edwetshelwe yombhalo nabase-Efesu 6: 11, “Hlomani izikhali zonke zikaNkulunkulu ukuze nibe namandla okumelana namaqhinga kasathane”. Yini izikhali ongazibuza? Izincazelo ezingaba khona zifaka:
1.) Izimbozo zensimbi ezazigqokwa amasosha phambilini ukuvikela umzimba empini
2.) Isembozo sokuzivikela somzimba ikakhulukazi empini
3.) Noma yikuphi ukumbozwa okugqokwa njengokuvikela izikhali.
Ukusetshenziswa kwezikhali ukuzivikela futhi kwesinye isikhathi ngesikhathi sezenzo ezihlaselayo. Imvamisa kuhlotshaniswa nolaka noma impi. UmKristu uvame ukuba sesimweni sempi. Impi ingabonakala noma ingabonakali. Ngokuvamile izimpi zomzimba zekholwa zingathonywa umuntu noma idemoni. Impi engabonakali noma engokomoya idemoni. Umuntu wemvelo akakwazi ukulwa impi engokomoya noma engabonakali. Ulwa iningi lezimpi zakhe endaweni ebonakalayo futhi uvame ukungazazi izikhali ezidingekayo ukulwa nezitha zakhe. Indoda yomsele ivame ukubandakanyeka ezimpini zomzimba nezingokomoya futhi ngokuvamile ihlulwa izimpi zayo ngoba abazi noma bazazise izinhlobo zezimpi ababhekene nazo. Impi yokomoya ebandakanya umuntu wokomoya imvamisa iphikisana namandla obumnyama. Imvamisa la mandla obudimoni namanxusa awo awabonakali. Uma ubhekisisa ungahle ukwazi ukubona ezinye zezenzo noma ukunyakaza kwalamanxusa angokomoya. Kulezi zinsuku sibhekene nezitha ezinonya. Kwezinye izimo, basebenzisa izinto zemvelo noma zenyama ngokumelene nomuntu ongokomoya.
Noma kunjalo, uNkulunkulu akazange asishiye singahlomile kule mpi. Empeleni iyimpi phakathi kokuhle nokubi, uNkulunkulu nosathane. UNkulunkulu wasihlomisa kahle ngempi. Njengoba kushiwo ku-2nd KwabaseKorinte 10: 3-5, “Ngoba noma sihamba enyameni, asilwi ngokwenyama: Ngokuba izikhali zempi yethu azizona ezenyama, kodwa zinamandla ngoNkulunkulu ekudilizeni izinqaba: Sichitha imicabango nakho konke into ephakeme eyaziphakamisa yamelana nolwazi ngoNkulunkulu, futhi yathumba futhi yaletha yonke imicabango ekulaleleni kukaKristu. ” Lapha, uNkulunkulu ukhumbuza wonke umKristu ukuthi ubhekene nani. Asilwi ngokwenyama. Lokhu kukutshela ukuthi impi yobuKrestu ayikho enyameni. Noma isitha siza ngensimbi yomzimba noma yenyama kasathane; yilwa lempi endaweni yomoya futhi impumelelo yakho izobonakala ngokwenyama, uma kunesidingo.
Namuhla silwa izimpi ezahlukahlukene ngoba njengamaKrestu sisezweni: Kepha kufanele sikhumbule, sisezweni kepha asibona abomhlaba. Uma singekho kulo mhlaba kumele sihlale sizikhumbuza futhi sigxile ekubuyeni kwethu lapho safika khona. Izikhali zempi yethu akusizo neze zaleli zwe. Kungakho umbhalo uthe, izikhali zempi yethu akuzona ezenyama. Ngaphezu kwalokho, abase-Efesu 6: 14-17, bathi kufanele sigqoke zonke izikhali zikaNkulunkulu.
Izembatho zekholwa ngezikaNkulunkulu. Izembatho zikaNkulunkulu zimboza kusukela ekhanda kuye ezinyaweni. Ibizwa ngokuthi “zonke izikhali,” zikaNkulunkulu. Kwabase-Efesu 6: 14-17 kufundeka kanje, “Yimani-ke, nibhince iqiniso ezinkalweni, nifakile isitsha sesifuba sokulunga; izinyawo zigqokisiwe ukulungiswa kwevangeli lokuthula; Ngaphezu kwakho konke thatha isihlangu sokukholwa, lapho uzokwazi khona ukucima yonke imicibisholo evuthayo yababi. Futhi thathani isigqoko sokuzivikela sensindiso, nenkemba kaMoya, okuyizwi likaNkulunkulu. ” Inkemba kaMoya ayiphethe nje ibhayibheli eliqukethe izwi likaNkulunkulu. Kusho ukwazi izithembiso zikaNkulunkulu, izithombe, izahlulelo, imiyalelo, iziphathimandla kanye nokunethezeka kwezwi likaNkulunkulu nokwazi ukuthi ungaziguqula kanjani zibe yinkemba. Guqula izwi likaNkulunkulu libe yisikhali sokulwa namandla obumnyama. IBhayibheli lisiyala ukuba sigqoke zonke izikhali zikaNkulunkulu empini eqinisekile. Uma ulwa nazo zonke izikhali zikaNkulunkulu ngokholo uqinisekile ukuthi uzowina. Lithi ibhayibheli (Rom. 8:37) singabanqobi ngaphezu kwakhe owasithandayo. Kakhulu umbhalo osencwadini yabaseRoma 13:12 usitshela ukuthi sigqoke "izikhali zokukhanya." Kungani ukukhanya, ungazibuza.
Ukukhanya empini kuyisikhali esesabekayo. Cabanga ngemibhobho yesikhathi sasebusuku, amalambu e-laser, izikhali zokukhanya ezivela emkhathini zifaka; cabanga ngamandla okukhanya kwelanga nenyanga, namathonya awo. Lezi zibani zisebenza kangcono ebumnyameni. Kunezibani ezihlukile kepha i-Light of Life ingukukhanya okukhulu kakhulu (uJohn 8: 12) futhi lokho kukhanya kokuPhila nguJesu Kristu. Silwa namandla obumnyama. UJohn 1: 9, uthi lokhu kungukukhanya okukhanyisa wonke umuntu oza emhlabeni. UJesu Kristu ungukukhanya kwezwe elivela ezulwini. Umbhalo uthi, "Hlomani izikhali zokukhanya." Ukuhlanganyela kule mpi namandla obumnyama kufanele sigqoke izikhali zokukhanya, zonke izikhali zikaNkulunkulu. NgokukaJohane 1: 3-5, “Zonke izinto zenziwa Nguye; futhi ngaphandle Kwakhe akuzange kwenziwe noma yini eyenziwayo. KuYe kwakukhona Ukuphila; nokuPhila kwakungukukhanya kwabantu. Futhi ukuKhanya kukhanya ebumnyameni; futhi ubumnyama abukwamukelanga. ” Ukukhanya kwembula yonke imisebenzi yobumnyama futhi leso ngesinye sezizathu esidinga ukuthi sigqoke izikhali zokuKhanya.
The izikhali Yokukhanya kanye ne- izikhali zonke zikaNkulunkulu zitholakala emthonjeni owodwa kuphela futhi lowo mthombo nguJesu Kristu. Umthombo yizikhali. Umthombo ngukuPhila, nomthombo ngukuKhanya. UJesu Kristu uyisikhali sokuzivikela. Kungakho uMphostoli uPawulu abhale ngokugcizelela ngalezi zembatho zempi. Waqonda izikhali. UPaul wahlangana nomthombo, ukuKhanya futhi wezwa amandla nokubusa kwezikhali endleleni eya eDamaseku njengoba kubhalwe kuZenzo 22: 6-11 ngamazwi akhe. Okokuqala, wezwa amandla nenkazimulo yokuKhanya okukhulu okuvela ezulwini. Okwesibili, wakhomba umthombo lapho ethi, “Ungubani wena Nkosi?” Impendulo yathi, "NginguJESU WASENAZARETHA." Okwesithathu, wezwa amandla nokubusa kokuKhanya njengoba waphuphuthekiswa futhi walahlekelwa ukubona ngenxa yenkazimulo yako. Kusukela ngaleso sikhathi, waba ngaphansi kokubusa kokuKhanya nasekulaleleni njengomuntu okhethiwe kaNkulunkulu. UPawulu wayengesona isitha sikaNkulunkulu ngaphandle kwalokho wayezobhujiswa. Esikhundleni salokho umusa kaNkulunkulu wamnika insindiso nokwambulwa ukuthi ungubani uJesu Kristu, Heb. 13: 8.
Kungakho umfowethu uPaul esho ngesibindi, gqoka izikhali zokuKhanya futhi namandla obumnyama awanakukuphambanisa nawe. Waphinda wabhala, wembatha zonke izikhali zikaNkulunkulu. Waqhubeka njengoba ebhala (ngiyazi ukuthi ngikholwe kubani, 2nd Thimothewu 1:12). UPaul wayethengiselwe iNkosi ngokuphelele futhi iNkosi yamvakashela ngezikhathi ezirekhodiwe, njengokuthathwa aye ezulwini lesithathu, lapho kuphahlazeka umkhumbi, nalapho esejele. Manje cabanga ngobuningi bezambulo ezamenza wakholwa. Kungakho ekugcineni abhale ngomugqa ofanayo kwabaseRoma 13:14, “Kepha gqokani iNkosi uJesu Kristu, ningenzi malungiselelo enyama, ukufeza izinkanuko zayo.” Impi isemikhakheni eminingi njengoba eyabaseGalathiya 5: 16-21 ingaphambili, kanti enye ingaphambili ingu-Efesu 6:12 lapho impi ibandakanya ubukhosi, namandla, nababusi bobumnyama baleli zwe kanye nobubi obungokomoya ezindaweni eziphakeme .
Masinake izeluleko zomzalwane othandekayo uPaul. Masembathe iNkosi uJesu Kristu njengengubo yensindiso. Phenduka futhi uguqulwe, uma ungasindiswanga. Gqokani zonke izikhali zikaNkulunkulu zokulwa nemisebenzi yobumnyama. Ekugcineni, gqoka izikhali zokuKhanya (uJesu Kristu). Lokho kuzoqeda noma yikuphi ukuphazamiseka kwamademoni, kuphuphuthekise noma yimaphi amandla aphikisayo. Lezi zikhali zokukhanya zingangena kunoma yiluphi udonga lobumnyama. Khumbula u-Eksodusi 14: 19 & 20 ukhombisa amandla amakhulu ezembatho zokukhanya. Ukugqoka uJesu Kristu, isambatho sokukhanya, kukuvumela ukuba unqobe izimpi futhi wakhe ubufakazi bokunqoba okuqhubekayo. Njengoba kushiwo kuSambulo 12:11, "Futhi bamnqobile (uSathane namandla obumnyama) ngegazi leWundlu nangezwi lobufakazi babo."
