UKWAHLULELWA KUFANELE KUQALA ENDLINI KANKULUNKULU
Ngokusho koMphostoli uPetru, ku-1st UPetru 4: 7, “Kepha ukuphela kwezinto zonke sekusondele: ngakho-ke yibani ngabasangulukile futhi nilinde umkhuleko.” Isahlulelo sisohlangothini olulodwa lwemali bese kuthi uSindiso kube kolunye uhlangothi. UMarko 16:16 uthi, “Okholwayo abhapathizwe uyakusindiswa (INSINDISO); kodwa lowo ongakholwayo uzolahlwa (UKWAHLULELWA-KULAHLEKA). ” NoJohane 3:18 ufundeka kanje, “Okholwa kuye kahlulelwa; kepha ongakholwayo ulahlwa KADE; nevesi 36, kodwa ulaka lukaNkulunkulu lumi phezu kwakhe. ” Lesi ukwahlulela kokuzwa iqiniso leVangeli likaKristu noMbuso bese ulilahla. Lokhu kungukugcina futhi ngithemba ukuthi niyakwazi. Leli zwe lamanje lingabukeka lilihle, futhi ungathandwa emhlabeni; konke lokhu kuzoba yize uma ungenaye uKristu. Udinga ukuthola uJesu Kristu manje, ngoba izehlakalo ezingazelelwe zingenzeka noma ngabe ufunda leli pheshana; abantu bawa ngokuzumayo bangabe besahamba. Thola uJesu manje kungakephuzi kakhulu. Endizeni uma kunenkinga ngomfutho wekhabhathi noma ukuphazamiseka emoyeni, utshelwa ukuthi ungasizi muntu kuqala, kodwa uzisize wena; noma ngabe unezingane. Nikela ngempilo yakho kuKristu kuqala ngaphambi kokukhathazeka ngomuntu.
Ibhayibheli liyasitshela ku-1st UPetru 4: 6, “Ngalesi sizathu iVangeli lashunyayelwa nakwabafileyo, ukuze bahlulelwe ngokwabantu enyameni, kodwa baphile ngokukaNkulunkulu emoyeni.” Ngokusho kuka-1st UPetru 3: 19-20, “Ngalokho futhi wahamba washumayeza imimoya esetilongweni; Okwathi kwesinye isikhathi kwakungalaleli, lapho ukulinda okude kukaNkulunkulu kulindile ezinsukwini zikaNowa. ”
Wonke umuntu uzoziphendulela kuNkulunkulu (Rom. 4:12) okulungele ukwahlulela abaphilayo nabafileyo. Kepha kufanele sikhumbule ukuthi yonke imibhalo inikezwe ngokuphefumulelwa nguNkulunkulu lapho abantu abaNgcwele bakaNkulunkulu behanjiswa (2nd Isikhathi. 3: 16-17). Omunye wemibhalo enjalo ngu-1st UPetru 4: 17-18 othi, “ISIKHATHI SESIFIKILE UKUTHI Isahlulelo SIYOQALA ENDLWINI KANKULUNKULU: FUTHI UMA SIQALA KUTHI, KUYOBA YINI UKUPHELA KWABO ABANGALALELI IVANGELI LIKANKULUNKULU? Uma olungileyo esindiswa kalukhuni, ongahloniphi uNkulunkulu nesoni bazovela kuphi na? ” Yiliphi ithuba olimayo, uqiniseke kangakanani?
UNkulunkulu uqhuba umbuso wakhe ngokwezindinganiso zakhe hhayi ezomuntu. Uphila ngezwi lakhe noma uzenzela okwakho. UNkulunkulu unemiyalo, imfundiso, izithombe, ukwahlulela, izimiso futhi umuntu unamasiko nezimfundiso zakhe: umbuzo uwukuthi, uhlinza ini? Ukuphela kwezinto zonke kuseduze futhi ukwahlulela kufanele kuqale endlini kaNkulunkulu.
Indlu kaNkulunkulu yakhiwe ngabantu, abakholwayo, abakholwayo nabangakholwa. Endlini kaNkulunkulu kunabaholi abakhiwe ngabaphostoli, abaprofethi, abavangeli, othisha, abadikoni nokuningi futhi ekugcineni abantu abavamile (1st EKorinte. 12:28). Esontweni uqala epulpiti wehlele kubadala ezihlalweni eziphakeme nezingaphambili, ikwaya kanye nomhlangano. Ukwahlulelwa kuzoqala endlini kaNkulunkulu, akekho ongavikelekile. Isonto lanamuhla likude kakhulu namakholwa okuqala. Yinye into esobala isonto namuhla futhi ikakhulukazi abaholi balahlekelwe UKWESABA UNKULUNKULU.
Lapho abantu benokwesaba uNkulunkulu babenza ngokuhlukile. KuzEnzo 6: 2-4, “Khona-ke abayishumi nambili babizela kubo uquqaba lwabafundi, bathi, akusona isizathu sokuthi sishiye IZWI LIKANKULUNKULU, sikhonze amatafula.. Ngalokho-ke bazalwane, funani phakathi kwenu amadoda ayisikhombisa akhulunywa kahle, agcwele uMoya oNgcwele nokuhlakanipha, esingakubeka phezu kwalomsebenzi. Kepha sizozinikela njalo emthandazweni nasenkonzweni yeZwi. ” Le yindlela yokwenza ibandla elinokwesaba uNkulunkulu.
Ake siqhathanise ukuthi isonto liqhutshwa kanjani namhlanje futhi sibone ukuthi kungani ibandla lanamuhla lingakwazi ukukhiqiza uhlobo lwekholwa lika STEPHEN. Abaphostoli bakhuluma ngomoya kaNkulunkulu umphumela waba sobala. Ukwahlulela kuvame ukuqala ngesikhathi semvuselelo; khumbula ukuvuselelwa kosuku lwePhentekoste kuveze ukwahlulelwa okusheshayo kuka-Ananiya noSapphire. Abaphostoli bathola ukubaluleka kwabo kuqala. Izwi likaNkulunkulu lalihamba phambili kubo. Namuhla imali nezinto ezibonakalayo namandla okulawula kuyinto eza kuqala (1st Isikhathi. 6: 9-11), kude nabaphostoli kuqala. Okwesibili, babiza uquqaba lwabatshela abakubeka phambili (iZwi) nokuthi bangaqhuba kanjani ezinye izindaba zebandla ebeziyinkinga. Namuhla abaholi bamabandla abayazi inkinga yangempela yesonto, noma abawukhathalele umhlambi nokuthi yini abakondla ngayo, uma kuyizwi likaNkulunkulu ngempela. Abaphostoli baziphathisa izindaba, ezazibandakanya izinto ezazidingeka kakhulu kubafelokazi ababengewona amaHeberu. Amasonto namuhla azoyiphatha ngendlela engemnandi.
Abaphostoli batshela uquqaba ukuthi lubheke phakathi kwenu futhi lukhethe amadoda ayisikhombisa azobhekana nalolu daba futhi abanikeze okufanele bakufune, njengokuthi UMBIKO WAMADODA ATHEMBEKILE, OGCWELE UMPHEFUMULO OYINGCWELE NOKUHLAKANIPHA. Ugcine nini umholi webandla lakho ukusebenzisa le ndlela? Amalungu ayazi ukuthi obani amadoda analezi zimfanelo, kodwa ngeshwa abaholi bamabandla namuhla abasenalo uvalo ngoNkulunkulu futhi benza noma yini abayithandayo: okungenani bayohlala bekutshela ukuthi 'ngangiholwa', ukuyenza ibe ngokomoya. Kungakho ubona izimpisi ezisesikhunjeni sezimvu njengabadala nabadikoni abangakwazi ukuphumelela esivivinyweni sefomula yedikoni noma yombhishobhi (1st Isikhathi. 3: 2-13).
Laba baholi bamabandla banamuhla bamatasa bakhe imibuso yemindeni yabo kanye nalabo abasondelene nabo. Bonke abashumayeli balungiselela indodana noma indodakazi yakhe ukuthatha ibhizinisi abayibiza ngenkonzo. Izingane zabo ziqeqeshwa kahle futhi ziqashwe ngumnyango ukulungele ukuthatha izintambo. Abaphostoli babenendlela ehlukile. Babenokubaluleka okuhlukile. Bazinikele enkonzweni yeZWI NOMTHANDAZO ngemiphumela. Namuhla isonto seliphenduke imakethe yamasheya enabaxhasi bezezimali kanye nochwepheshe bokuqongelela imali, ngayo yonke imikhonyovu yokungalungi; ngenkathi abantu abavamile behlupheka ngokuhlupheka nendlala, bebheke phezulu kuNkulunkulu. UJakobe 5 uyinduduzo yokuthi uNkulunkulu uyazi ngobubi babantu.
Yebo, ukwahlulela kuyeza futhi kuzoqala endlini kaNkulunkulu. Kulokho okunikwe okuningi kulindeleke. Iningi labaholi besonto abakwazi ukuzinikela IZWI LIKANKULUNKULU NOMTHANDAZO ngoba, abasenalo uvalo ngoNkulunkulu, sebenobungani nezwe; imali, ukuthandwa namandla onkulunkulu babo. Abaningi banezinkolo ezihlanganyelwe futhi kuyamukelwa esontweni, abaningi sebengosopolitiki basepulpiti, abaziphethe kahle ngisho nababulali batholakala emapulpiti abo. Ukuzikhohlisa kuyesabeka; zehlukanise nalokho, kungenjalo ukwahlulela kuzonifica nonke. Abaningi esontweni bayazi ukuthi kwenzekani, kepha abakwazi ukuma neqiniso (UJESU KRISTU): Funda amaRoma 1:32.
Abaholi esontweni bazobona ukwahlulelwa futhi kuyeza futhi maduze kuzoqala ngemvuselelo ezayo yamakholwa eqiniso. Abenza amakholwa yilabo abasocingweni, abazulelayo njengamaKristu ngenzuzo. Abanye bangabasebenzi nababhali bama-akhawunti abeba emaqoqweni baphambukise izimali. Abanye bangamaKrestu ngomsebenzi sidinga ukwethembeka endlini kaNkulunkulu. Kukhona abathembekile kepha abaningi bahambile nezinkathazo zalokhu kuphila nenkanuko yamehlo nokukhohlisa kokufinyelela. Iqembu lokugcina esontweni ngabantu abeza ukuzogcina ukubukeka, mhlawumbe ukujabulisa umndeni noma abangane kepha abasindisiwe. Laba babuka labo abathi bayizibonelo zabo. Bangasindiswa noma balahlekelwe ekugcineni yilokho abakubona kuwe. Uyincwadi enhle noma embi. Ukwahlulela kuzoqala endlini kaNkulunkulu. UNkulunkulu washumayela iVangeli elifanayo emimoyeni futhi labo abemukela umyalezo baphila ngokukaNkulunkulu emoyeni. IVANGELI elifanayo elakhulunywa nguKristu Jesu liyinduku yokwahlulela.
Izulu elisha nomhlaba omusha neChibi Lomlilo zingokoqobo. Isahlulelo sizonquma ukuthi uyaphi ngokuya ngemfihlo nangendlela yempilo yakho njengamanje ehambelana neZWI LIKANKULUNKULU. Kungamsizani umuntu uma ezuza umhlaba wonke kodwa alahlekelwe ngumphefumulo wakhe (Marku 8:36). Abaningi bakhulisa izingane zabo ngokukhohlisa esontweni, ikakhulukazi abaholi besonto, banikeza izingane zabo imiyalezo engalungile yokuphila kanye nevangeli (Math. 18: 6). Isamb. 22:12 sifundeka kanje, “Bheka, ngiyeza masinyane; nomvuzo wami unami ukunikela yilowo nalowo njengokomsebenzi wakhe. Ngingu-Alfa no-Omega, isiqalo nesiphetho, owokuqala nowokugcina. ” Phenduka futhi ubuyele eNkosini uJesu Kristu futhi ushiye izindlela zakho ezimbi: kungani uzofa? Isiphambano seKalvari siyindlela ebuyela kuNkulunkulu, ungabi namahloni, ukhale kuNkulunkulu kungakephuzi kakhulu. Uma uzimisele ukuphenduka uNkulunkulu uzimisele ngokuxolela.
