KwabaseRoma 8:18-28

Ngokuba ngithi izinhlupheko zesikhathi samanje azinakulinganiswa nenkazimulo eyakwambulwa kithina. Ngokuba ukulangazela kokudaliweyo kulindele ukwambulwa kwabantwana bakaNkulunkulu. Ngokuba okudaliweyo kwabekwa phansi kobuze, kungengentando yakho kodwa ngaye owakubekayo, ethembeni lokuthi nakho okudaliweyo kuyakukhululwa ebugqileni bokubhubha, kube ngukukhululeka kwenkazimulo yabantwana bakaNkulunkulu. Ngokuba siyazi ukuthi konke okudaliweyo kuyabubula kanyekanye kunezinseka kuze kube manje; akusikho lokho kuphela, kepha nathi uqobo lwethu esinolibo lukaMoya siyabubula phakathi kwethu, silindele isimo sobuntwana, ukukhululwa komzimba wethu. Ngokuba ethembeni sisindisiwe; kepha ithemba elibonwayo alisilo ithemba; ngokuba lokhu umuntu akubonayo usakwethembelani na? Kodwa uma sithemba lokho esingakuboniyo, siyakulindela ngokubekezela. Ngokunjalo noMoya uyasisiza ebuthakathakeni bethu; ngokuba asikwazi esingakucela ngokufaneleyo, kodwa uMoya uqobo usikhulumela ngokububula okungenakuphinyiselwa; kepha yena ohlola izinhliziyo uyakwazi okuqondwa nguMoya, ngokuba ukhulumela abangcwele ngokwentando kaNkulunkulu. Siyazi ukuthi kwabamthandayo uNkulunkulu konke kusebenzelana kube ngokuhle, kulabo ababiziweyo ngecebo lakhe.
