Thola i AppUmkhuleko: Ukuzinikela kwezinsuku ezingu-14 ngoTim KellerIsampula
Isikhathi kuphela kulo lonke ivangelilapho uJesu Kristu ethandaza kuNkulunkulu futhi engambizi ngokuthi uYise esiphambanweni, lapho ethi, “Nkulunkulu wami, Nkulunkulu wami, ungikhohlwe leni na? Ungishiyeleni na? UJesu walahlekelwa ubuhlobo bakhe noYise ukuze sibe nobuhlobo noNkulunkulu njengoyise. UJesu wakhohlwakala ukuze sikhunjulwe phakade—kusukela phakade kuze kube phakade. UJesu Kristu wathwala sonke isijeziso saphakade esifanele izono zethu. Lokho kuyizindleko zomthandazo. UJesu wakhokha inani ukuze uNkulunkulu abe ngubaba wethu.
Mhlawumbe, uyabhikisha, uyihlo noma umama wakho wonile. Lokho akumele kube isithiyo emthandazweni, ngoba kuKristu kuphela lapho uyothola khona uthando oludingayo ukuze wenzele umlando womndeni wakho ongajabulisi. Akusizi ukuthi, “Kungani bebengebona abazali obekufanele ngabe bebeyibo?” Abekho abazali abayilokho okufanele babe yikho. AmaHubo 27:10 lithi: “Nakuba ubaba nomame bangishiyile, uJehova uyongithwala.” Lobu budlelwano obusha noNkulunkulu yibo obudingayo uma unesizinda somndeni esibi. Yilokhu okudingayo uma uzizwa uyisehluleki, uma uzizwa unesizungu, noma uma ucwila ekuphelelweni ithemba. Ngenxa yenani elingapheli elakhokhwa umfowenu, uJesu, uNkulunkulu uyihlo uyokusekela.
Ingxoxo noNkulunkulu iholela ekuhlanganeni noNkulunkulu. Umthandazo awuyona nje indlela esifunda ngayo lokho uJesu asenzele kona kodwa futhi uyindlela ‘esithola ngayo izinzuzo zikaNkulunkulu nsuku zonke. Umthandazo uphendula imfundiso yenkolo ibe yisipiliyoni. Ngawo sizwa ubukhona Bakhe futhi samukele injabulo Yakhe, uthando Lwakhe, ukuthula nokuqiniseka Kwakhe, futhi ngalokho siyaguqulwa esimweni sengqondo, ukuziphatha, kanye nesimilo.
