U-Edmund P. Clowney wabhala, “IBhayibheli alinikezi ubuciko bokuthandaza; lethula uNkulunkulu womthandazo. “Akufanele sinqume ukuthi sizothandaza kanjani ngokusekelwe kulokho esiye sabhekana nakho nemizwa esiyifunayo. Kunalokho, kufanele senze konke okusemandleni ukuze sibheke uNkulunkulu wethu njengoba enjalo, futhi umthandazo uzolandela. Lapho siqonda ngokucacile ukuthi uNkulunkulu ungubani, kulapho umthandazo wethu ulolongwa khona futhi unqunywa ngendlela efanele.

Kungenzeka ukuthi asiphenduli kuNkulunkulu wangempela kodwa kulokho esifisa ukuba uNkulunkulu nokuphila kube yikho. Ngempela, uma ziyekwa izinhliziyo zethu zizothambekela ekudaleni uNkulunkulu ongekho. Abantu abavela emasikweni aseNtshonalanga bafuna uNkulunkulu onothando nothethelelayo kodwa ongengcwele futhi ongedlulele. Ucwaningo lwempilo engokomoya yentsha esikhulile emazweni aseNtshonalanga yembula ukuthi imithandazo yabo ngokuvamile ayinakho kokubili ukuphenduka kanye nenjabulo yokuthethelelwa.
