Khumbula iculo elithi, “Akukho lutho ngaphandle kwegazi likaJesu.”

Gen. 7:1-18

Izinsuku zokugcina zihlobene nezenzakalo nezenzo zomuntu kanye nemisebenzi eholela ekuhumusheni, usizi olukhulu, i-Armagedoni kanye neNkosi iyangenela ukuze ilethe iMinyaka Eyinkulungwane.

Kukho konke lokhu uJesu Kristu wasibhekisa ezinsukwini zikaNowa njengalokho okumelwe sikulindele ezenzweni nasezenzweni zomuntu. Njengoba nje osukwini lukaNowa, kusenjalo nanamuhla, “Ububi bomuntu babubukhulu emhlabeni, nokuthi zonke izizindlo zemicabango yenhliziyo yakhe zimbi kuphela.” Umphakathi wabo wanda, ukuziphatha okubi kwakuyinsakavukela. Umhlaba wawonakele. Umhlaba wawugcwele ubudlwangudlwangu.

Futhi uJehova wazisola ukuthi wayebenzile abantu emhlabeni, futhi kwaba lusizi kuye enhliziyweni yakhe. Ungacabanga nje, indlela uNkulunkulu azizwa ngayo ngomuntu osemhlabeni namuhla. Phenduka futhi uguqulwe kungakephuzi kakhulu. Phendukela kuJesu Kristu manje. Lezi izinsuku zokugcina.

Gen. 9:1-16

Izinsuku zokugcina zihlala ziphawulwa yisono, ububi nokwahlulela kukaNkulunkulu. UJesu wathi, ekupheleni kwenkathi kuyoba njengezinsuku zikaNowa, ngobudlova, inhliziyo yomuntu izoqhubeka ngokuqhubekayo ebubini obengeziwe. Namuhla singofakazi balokho izwe eliyikho, ubulwane, futhi njalo ibutho lomuntu lihamba lihamba lintshontsha, libulale futhi licekele phansi konke esandleni sikadeveli.

Namuhla, sisezinsukwini zokugcina zangempela futhi uNkulunkulu wenze umkhumbi ukuze noma ubani othanda ukungena futhi aphephe ngegazi lakhe, hhayi i-gopher wood njengesikhathi sikaNowa.

Akakhethanga ngokuqondile ukuthi ubani ongangena kulo Mphongolo Omusha wegazi lakhe; kodwa wanika wonke umuntu ithuba lokuzikhethela lokungena noma ukwenqaba lokho okunikezwayo. Lona ukuphela kwesango noma umnyango wethuba lokungena kuloMphongolo oNgcwele osezovalwa. UJesu Kristu wavala umkhumbi kaNowa futhi ngokuqinisekile uyowuvala loMphongolo oNgcwele owakhiwe ngegazi lakhe. Ingabe ungaphakathi noma awukakanqumi? UNowa kwadingeka ahambe aye emkhunjini futhi angene; kanjalo nanamuhla, qala esiphambanweni sikaJesu Kristu ngokuphenduka.

ULuka 17: 28-32

UNkulunkulu wanikeza uLoti umkhumbi ukuze abalekele isahlulelo sikaNkulunkulu. Ubukhona bukaNkulunkulu. Wafumana izingelosi ezaziza naye ukuba zibeke izandla kuLoti, umkakhe namadodakazi amabili; futhi ubayise endaweni ephephile ngaphansi komyalelo olula, “Ungabheki ngemuva.” Ubukhona beNkosi babunamandla kakhulu kunomkhumbi kaNowa. UNkulunkulu wavala umnyango wokuphepha eSodoma ngalowo myalelo. Kepha umkaLoti wasuka eBukhoneni bukaNkulunkulu, okwakuyizwi lakhe lomyalo, ethi: “Ungabheki emuva.” Khumbula uMose waphakamisa inyoka yethusi esigxotsheni ehlane; ngokomyalelo kaNkulunkulu, noma ubani olunywe inyoka kufanele ayibheke futhi aphulukiswe. Namuhla, ngenxa yesono kufanele ubheke esiphambanweni saseKalvari futhi wamukele ngenkolelo yeqiniso lokho esikwenzile nesikumelelayo. Kanjalo umuntu angangena emkhunjini wezinsuku zokugcina, weGazi likaJesu Kristu.

ULoti wabhekana nezinsuku zokugcina ezinzima kakhulu ngosuku lwakhe. Abakhwenyana bakhe nendodakazi yakhe babhujiswa esahlulelweni esinjengomlilo phezu kweSodoma neGomora nemizi ezungezile. Kwamethusa umkakhe owayeza emva kwakhe wabheka ngemuva waphenduka insika kasawoti.

Isono sase singcolise abantu baseSodoma naseGomora nasemizini eyizungezile. Ukuthi uNkulunkulu watshela u-Abrahama kuGen. 18:20-21, “UJehova wathi, ngokuba isikhalo saseSodoma nesaseGomora sikhulu, nangenxa yokuthi isono sabo sinzima kakhulu. ngiyakwehla manje, ngibone ukuthi benzile kanyekanye njengokukhala kwakho esifike kimi; uma kungenjalo, ngiyakwazi.”

UJehova wayesekwazi okwakwenzeka kodwa wayefuna ukuthulisa u-Abrahama. owayikhulekela imizi, azi ukuthi uLoti wayebhincile, enenqwaba yabantu; owake wezwa noma wayazi iNkosi ngesikhathi esebudlelwaneni buka-Abrahama: ngaphambi kokuba uLoti athuthe konke ayenakho ngaseSodoma.

Ukwahlulelwa kweSodoma kuyisithunzi salokho okuyokwenzeka kwabangamesabi uNkulunkulu ekupheleni kwesikhathi, (2 Petru 3:7-13). Ababi nabangalungile bayohanjelwa ngesahlulelo esinzima, bese kuba yichibi lomlilo. Balekela impilo yakho kuJesu.

2 Petru 3:13, “Kepha ngokwesithembiso sakhe silindele amazulu amasha nomhlaba omusha okuhlala kuwo ukulunga.”

Khumbula iculo elithi, “Nkosi ngiyeza ekhaya.”

Yena njengoNkulunkulu wazi isiphetho kwasekuqaleni. Wadala zonke izinto. Wadala lendawo yonke ngezinsuku eziyisithupha futhi waphumula ngosuku lwesikhombisa. Izinsuku zokugcina zihlobene nokuphela kosuku lwesithupha noma iminyaka eyizi-6 yomuntu. Osekuphelile ngempela futhi siphila esikhathini soguquko. Usuku lwesikhombisa, oluwukuphumula kukaNkulunkulu, iminyaka eyinkulungwane; ingane ingashona ineminyaka eyikhulu kanti ikhalenda yonyaka izoba yizinsuku ezingama-6000 ngonyaka.

UMdali wathi, lezi zinsuku zokugcina ziyoba njengezinsuku zikaNowa noLoti. Lapho babedla khona, baphuza, bethatha abafazi, bendiswa; bathenga, bathengisa, batshala, bakha, kwaze kwafika ukwahlulela phezu kwabo ngokuzumayo; futhi kwase kwephuze kakhulu, ngokuba uNkulunkulu wayesebahlukanisile futhi wabasusa abakhe endleleni. Kuyakuba njalo ngezinsuku zokugcina.

Uma iZwi lasho njalo, ubani ongakushintsha na? Konke uJesu akuprofethayo kuyagcwaliseka phambi kwamehlo ethu namuhla; bheka manje isibalo sezindawo zokuphisa utshwala emhlabeni kanye nenani lotshwala nokuziphatha okubi okuhambisana nakho. Izindawo zokudlela nezibiliboco zanamuhla. Umshado nesehlukaniso esinezingane ezibanjwe kulokhu, futhi ziyizihlubuki kubazali abangalawuleki.

Kholwa futhi wenze emazwini kaJesu Kristu ngoba njengoba uPetru asho, “INkosi iyakwazi ukukhulula ezilingweni abamesabayo uNkulunkulu, nokugcinela abangalungile usuku lokwahlulelwa, ukuba bajeziswe.

Masinake izibonakaliso zezinsuku zikaNowa noLoti ukuze kuzuze thina ngoba lezo zibonakaliso zisizungezile manje. Isibonakaliso somuthi womkhiwane, singesinye seziqinisekiso zezinsuku zokugcina; U-Israyeli manje usebuyele ngokuphelele ezweni lakubo futhi uyaqhakaza njengembali ewugwadule yenkazimulo. Khumbula ukuthi kwakungesinye seziprofetho zikaJesu mayelana nezinsuku zokugcina. Isikhathi sifushane ngempela, vuka ubone iziprofetho zikaJesu zezinsuku zokugcina ngempela zigcwaliseka phambi kwethu namuhla.

Abantu nezizwe bayathenga futhi bayathengisa, bakha amadolobha amasha ahlakaniphile kodwa balahlekelwe umbono wokuthi umnyango wethuba lokungena emkhunjini wokuphepha nokuhumusha, uJesu Kristu uyavala ngokushesha.Phenduka futhi uguqulwe, kungakephuzi kakhulu. Vuka ungaphazanyiswa, manje.

1 Thes. 5:1-10

Cishe ezinsukwini zokugcina uPawulu wenza izinkulumo eziningana zamaqiniso nezenzakalo ezizokwenzeka maduze. Ukuthi uSathane uyoba ngemva kokuvuka kukamphikuKristu, ozofika ngawo wonke amandla nezibonakaliso nezimangaliso zamanga; nangayo yonke inkohliso kulabo ababhubhayo; ngoba kabamukelanga uthando lweqiniso, ukuze basindiswe.

Futhi ngenxa yalesi sizathu uNkulunkulu uzobathumelela ukuduka okunamandla, ukuze bakholwe amanga. Kodwa ekholweni leqiniso; makwazeke ukuthi uNkulunkulu ukukhethele ukusindiswa ngokungcweliswa kukaMoya nangokukholwa yiqiniso. Ngakho yimani niqine, nibambe amasiko enawafundiswa, noma ngezwi noma ngencwadi yethu.

Lokhu kukwenza kucace ukuthi kulezi zinsuku zokugcina umuntu kufanele aqinisekise ukubizwa nokukhethwa kwabo. Hlomani izikhali zonke zikaNkulunkulu nikholwe nenze ngokwezwi likaNkulunkulu, njalo ngoba silwa noSathane futhi asazi futhi ukuthi iNkosi iyofika ngaliphi ihora. Nani hlalani nilungile, lindani, nikhuleke.

Ngokuba lapho bethi ukuthula, ukuthula nokulondeka; khona-ke imbubhiso engazelelwe ibehlele njengemihelo phezu kowesifazane okhulelweyo; njalo kabayikuphunyuka.
