Impela ubusisiwe
Le ntshumayelo imayelana nokuqaphela ukuthi njengomntwana kaNkulunkulu, ubusisiwe futhi awukwazi noma awukwazi ukwenza noma ukuvuma. INkosi ibeka ithunzi lezinto ngaphambi kokuba zibe khona. Uma wamukele uJesu Kristu njengeNkosi noMsindisi wakho, ubusisiwe. Cabanga ngezwi likaNkulunkulu njengoba labikwa nguBalami umphrofethi, Num. 22:12, “UNkulunkulu wathi kuBileyamu, Ungahambi nawo; ungaqalekisi abantu, ngokuba babusisiwe.” U-Israyeli uyisithunzi sabantu bakaNkulunkulu.
Uyise wama-Israyeli wayengu-Abrahama kaNkulunkulu futhi ungu-Abrahama. KuGen. 12:1-3, “UJehova wayesethi ku-Abrama: “Phuma ezweni lakini, nasezihlotsheni zakho, nasendlini kayihlo, uye ezweni engiyakukukhombisa lona, ngikwenze ube yinkosi. isizwe esikhulu, ngiyakukubusisa, ngenze igama lakho libe likhulu; ube yisibusiso, ngibabusise abakubusisayo, ngiqalekise abakuqalekisayo, zibusiswe ngawe izizwe zonke zomhlaba.
Leli kwakuyizwi likaNkulunkulu ku-Abrahama futhi ladluliselwa ku-Isaka, uJakobe nakuJesu Kristu zonke izizwe zomhlaba kuhlanganise nabaJuda kanye nezizwe zabusiswa. Lokhu kwagcwalisa isithembiso uNkulunkulu asinika u-Abrahama njengesithunzi, futhi sagcwaliseka esiphambanweni sikaKristu; futhi ukubonakaliswa okugcwele kuyoba ekuhunyushweni kwabakholwayo, amen. Khona-ke ngeke kusaba yisithunzi kodwa into yangempela. U-Israyeli kaNkulunkulu owenziwe kuzo zonke izizwe, amaJuda nabezizwe ungu-Israyeli wangempela ngokholo luka-Abrahama ngesiphambano sikaJesu Kristu. Babusisiwe futhi awukwazi ukubaqalekisa. Ukuphelela kwesikhathi sethu akukafiki, ngakho qaphela indlela ophatha ngayo ama-Israyeli anamuhla. Basengabantu bakaNkulunkulu; ubumpumputhe bufikile phezu kwabo ukuze thina abezizwe sibone futhi samukele isiphambano sikaJesu Kristu. Uma ubabusisa ubusisiwe, uma ubaqalekisa uqalekisiwe.
Lapho uNkulunkulu ebusisa:
Lapho uNkulunkulu ekhuluma, kuyama. Watshela u-Abrahama ukuthi wayebusisiwe ngenzalo yakhe. Ngemva kokuba u-Abrahama esehambile uNkulunkulu waqhubeka ebakhumbuza ukuthi isibusiso asisho ku-Abrahama nenzalo yakhe ngokholo simile. Ngenkathi uIsrayeli esengena eZweni Lesithembiso, baba nenqwaba yezinkinga, wona, futhi ukuzethemba kwabo kwanyakaziswa izikhathi eziningi; izimpi nxazonke, kungekho ndawo ethile yokuhlala iminyaka engaphezu kwamashumi amane. Bahamba baya eZweni Lesithembiso kodwa abaningi abalamukelanga noma bangena kulo. Bahamba baya eKhanani nasezindaweni ezizungezile. Izogcwaliseka phakathi nenkulungwane yeminyaka. Kodwa kuseyisithunzi sezwe thina nabo bonke abakhulekeli beqiniso beNkosi ebesikulindele: umuzi lapho umakhi nomenzi enguNkulunkulu. UBalaki wayefuna uBhalami aqalekise abantwana bakwa Israel ababesendleleni eya eZweni Lesethembiso. UNkulunkulu wakhumbuza uBhalami isithembiso sakhe ku-Abrahama nenzalo yakhe ngokukholwa.
UNkulunkulu uyalisekela izwi lakhe:
Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli bahlushwa izikhathi eziningana ngenxa yezenzo zabo. Ngezinye izikhathi babehlangana nezizwe ezazibazonda, zibesaba, zaba buthaka lapho bezwa izenzo zamandla zikaNkulunkulu phakathi kwama-Israyeli. Amanye amakhosi nezizwe zakha izivumelwano njenganamuhla, ukuze zibhubhise abantu bakaNkulunkulu kuyo yonke inkathi. Abantwana bakwa Israel babengabantu okunzima ukubusa noma ukuhola, ngaphandle kwezibonakaliso nezimangaliso ababezibona eGibhithe. Cabanga ngazo zonke izinhlupho eGibhithe, nesokugcina sezibulo lomuntu nesilwane sifa. Cabangisisa futhi ngokuqinisekile uzophetha ngokuthi uNkulunkulu wabakhipha eGibhithe ngesandla esinamandla; kuyoba namandla kakhulu ekuhunyushweni kwebandla. UNkulunkulu wenza ezinye izimangaliso ngaphandle kwaseGibhithe, wahlukanisa uLwandle Olubomvu ukuze abantwana bakwa Israel bawele emhlabathini owomile wenza okufanayo kubo ekuweleni umfula iJordani. Wabapha ukudla kwezingelosi iminyaka engamashumi amane, kwakungekho nababuthakathaka, izicathulo azigugi; wabanika amanzi edwaleni elalibalandela, lelo dwala lalinguKristu. Waphulukisa abalunywe yinyoka evuthayo ngenxa yesono; ebheka phezulu emfanekisweni wenyoka uMose awenza, waxhoma esigxotsheni njengokuyalwa kukaJehova. UJehova wema phambi kwabantu bakhe nasezwini lakhe.
Sphakathi kwabantu:
Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli bona ngezindlela eziningi njengoba kwenzeka namuhla. Naphezu kwezibonakaliso, izimangaliso nezimangaliso uJehova azibonisa, baphendukela njalo ezithombeni nakwabanye onkulunkulu, abangezwa, bakhulume, babone, noma bakhulule. Ngokushesha bayamkhohlwa uNkulunkulu nokwethembeka kwakhe. Naphezu kwesono, ukuwa nokufinyela kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, uNkulunkulu wema ezwini lakhe; kodwa usajeziswa ngenxa yesono. UNkulunkulu usasebenza ngendlela efanayo nanamuhla, “Uma sizivuma izono zethu uNkulunkulu uthembekile futhi ulungile ukuba asithethelele futhi asihlanze kukho konke ukungalungi.” UNkulunkulu usazithethelela izono ezivunyiweyo nezilahliweyo.
UNkulunkulu akaguquki:
Lona kanye izwi likaNkulunkulu kuBhalami ngabantu bakhe, abantwana bakwa-Israyeli, linjalo kakhulu namuhla ngesiphambano sikaKristu, kwabakholwayo. Khumbula konke okubi abantwana bakwaIsrayeli abakwenza kuNkulunkulu, njengoba kwenza abaningi bethu namuhla, ngisho nangemva kokwamukela uKristu; uJehova akaliphiki izwi lakhe kodwa ujezisa isono. UnguNkulunkulu wothando kodwa futhi unguNkulunkulu wokwahlulela. Ngenombolo. 23:19-23, UNkulunkulu unobufakazi obuhlukile ngo-Israyeli, “UNkulunkulu akasiye umuntu ukuba aqambe amanga; nendodana yomuntu ukuba izisole; isishilo, ingakwenzi na? Ukhulumile, angakulungisi na? Bheka, ngamukele umyalo wokubusisa; futhi ubusisile; futhi angikwazi ukukuhlehlisa. Akabonanga ububi kuJakobe, akabonanga ububi kwa-Israyeli; uJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe unaye, nokumemeza kwenkosi kuphakathi kwabo. + Impela akukho imilingo ngoJakobe, futhi akukho ukubhula okungamelana no-Israyeli.”
Kuthiwani ngawe:
UBhalami sikhumbula kaningi efundisa uBalaki ukuthi ahole kanjani uIsrayeli ezithombeni futhi abasuse kuNkulunkulu. Kodwa futhi uNkulunkulu weza kuBileyamu futhi wakhuluma kuye futhi wamnika imiyalezo. UBhalamu wamcasula uJehova ekusebenzelaneni kwakhe noBalaki, uBalami wayazi ukuhlabela uJehova, wezwa uJehova kodwa waxutshwa nabantu abangebona abantu bakaNkulunkulu. UBhalamu wayengomunye wabantu abanenhlanhla owaba nethuba lokukhuluma nokuzwa uNkulunkulu kodwa waba nalobu bufakazi. kuJude ivesi 11 elithi “maye kubo ngokuba bahambe ngendlela kaKhayini, bagijimela ukuduka kukaBalami ngokuhaha befuna umvuzo.”
Manje ake sibheke izwi likaJehova kuBileyamu; ngabantu bakhe futhi lokho kuyasebenza nakubakholwa beqiniso kuJesu Kristu. UJesu Kristu weza emhlabeni, wafundisa, wenza izithembiso, waphulukisa, wakhululwa, wasinda, wafa, wavuka, wenyukela ezulwini futhi wanika abantu izipho. Wathi okholwa kuye (phenduka ezonweni zakho futhi uphenduke) uyakusindiswa futhi ongakholwayo usevele walahlwa. UNkulunkulu wayenobufakazi obuhlukile ngabantwana bakwa-Israyeli naphezu kwezono zabo kanye nokufika kwabo okufushane; akaphikanga. Futhi, labo abamukela uKristu basezicathulweni ezifanayo nabantwana bakwa-Israyeli emehlweni kaNkulunkulu.
UNkulunkulu wakhuluma, wafakaza futhi kwaba okokugcina:
Babusisiwe futhi labo uNkulunkulu ababusisile akukho muntu noma amandla angabaqalekisa; naphezu kwezono namaphutha kaIsrayeli nalabo abamukela uJesu Kristu njengeNkosi noMsindisi, wathi futhi, “akabonanga ububi kuJakobe noma kumakholwa eqiniso anamuhla.” Lapho wamukela uJesu Kristu njengeNkosi yakho, lapho ekubona; umbozwe ngegazi likaKristu futhi akasiboni isono sakho. Kungakho kubalulekile ukuthi uhlale kude nesono futhi uvume isono sakho ngokushesha nje lapho usibona. INkosi yathi ayibonanga bubi kwa-Israyeli noma amakholwa eqiniso. INkosi ibona igazi kuphela phezu kwakho hhayi ububi; inqobo nje uma ningahlali esonweni ukuze umusa wande; UPawuli wathi: Kakube njalo.
Akukho mlingo ngoJakobe:
UJehova wathi akukho imilingo ngoJakobe; okusho ukuthi ngegazi likaJesu Kristu elimboza ukuphila kwakho, njengoba uNkulunkulu asho ngoJakobe: akukho nhlobo yesikhali noma imilingo engasetshenziswa ngempumelelo ngokumelene nawe, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi kwenzekani; ngaphandle kokuthi uzikhiphele ngaphandle kwesembozo seGazi likaKristu ngesono. Futhi wathi akukho ukubhula ngokumelene no-Israyeli. Zonke izinhlobo zokubhula zisemoyeni namuhla; icala elibi kakhulu ukuthi ukubhula kuvamile emasontweni abizwa namuhla.
Akukho ukubhula ngo-Israyeli;
Ukubhula kunomqondo ongokwenkolo ngaphansi kwephimbo nokunamathela kukho, ukuthi amakholwa amaningi angaqaphile avalelwe. AmaKristu amaningi nabasontayo nabantu bezenkolo bathanda ukutshelwa ngekusasa labo, imibono, amaphupho, nokuxazulula izinkinga zabo ngokomoya. Amanye amabandla lapho kukhona khona lezi zinhlobo zemiphumela anobulungu obukhulu, abalandeli abaningi futhi ngokuvamile bayalawula. Ukulawula kungaba noma iyiphi indlela. Labo abacebile, bayisebenzisela ukulawula laba okuthiwa amadoda noma abesifazane bakaNkulunkulu. Abanye bomboni, umprofethi noma ababhuli basebenzisa isambulo sabo somoya ukuze balawule futhi. Ezinye zezimo zibandakanya imali, utshwala, ucansi kanye nenkohliso.
Mangikubeke kucace, lapho okukhona usathane, kukhona uNkulunkulu, nalapho kukhona inkohliso kuneqiniso. Kukhona amadoda nabesifazane beqiniso bakaNkulunkulu, amakholwa eqiniso kuJesu Kristu ambozwe yigazi. Kukhona abantwana bakaNkulunkulu abaphiwe abezwa eNkosini. Kodwa into ebaluleke kakhulu ukuthi noma yini noma yimuphi umuntu akushoyo kuwe noma akwenzayo kuwe, kumele kumashe izwi likaNkulunkulu. Izwi likaNkulunkulu liyisihluthulelo. Kufanele wazi iZwi likaNkulunkulu; futhi okuwukuphela kwendlela yokwazi iZwi likaNkulunkulu ukulifunda nsuku zonke, ngomthandazo. Uma uzwa isiprofetho, umbono, iphupho etc lihlole nezwi ubone ukuthi liyamasha yini likunika ukuthula, (Isifundo 2nd Petru 1:2-4). Khumbula, uma ngempela unoJesu Kristu ubusisiwe, futhi akukho imilingo noma ukubhula okungamelana nawe. Wonke amakholwa eqiniso kufanele akhumbule ukuthi abusisiwe kuKristu Jesu.
