“Tshelani u-Arkiphu ukuthi: ‘Bheka ukuthi uyayifeza inkonzo oyitholile eNkosini.’”

Kuyathakazelisa. Asimazi u-Arkiphu, nenkonzo yakhe asiyazi. Kodwa siyazi ukuthi kwakubalulekile. Umuntu oyedwa ubaluleke kakhulu kuNkulunkulu, futhi ubizo lukaNkulunkulu empilweni yomuntu oyedwa lubalulekile emhlabeni wabo. Ngakho uPawulu uthi kuye, “phelelisa inkonzo.” Qedela okuqalile.

Uhambo lwethu luqale ngamagama amabili alula: "Ngilandele." Futhi leyo bekuyindaba yethu kusukela ekuqaleni kuze kube sekugcineni - ukulandela uJesu. Endleleni, sabona uJesu ephulukisa abagulayo, ethulisa isiphepho, ethethelela izoni ezilusizi futhi ebuyisela abantu ngempela. Futhi abafundi babeyingxenye yomsebenzi, kanjalo nani.

KuMarku 8, uJesu wabiza abafundi ukuthi bazibophezele: 

Noma ubani ofuna ukuba ngumfundi wami makazidele, athabathe isiphambano sakhe, angilandele. (NgokukaMarku 8:34)

Base belandela abafundi. Ngombusi osemusha ocebile, safunda ukuthi ukulandela uJesu kusho ukuyeka izithombe ezinjengemali nokuqhosha. Futhi safunda imiyalo kaNkulunkulu emikhulu kunayo yonke: thanda uNkulunkulu futhi uthande umakhelwane wakho. Futhi ngaphezu kwakho konke, safunda ukuthi uNkulunkulu usithanda kangakanani. UJesu wanikela ngokuphila kwakhe ukuze asisindise. 

Futhi khumbula - asikuzuzi. Asikhokhi intengo yezono zethu, futhi asizenzi abalungile. UJesu wafa ukuze akhokhe inani eliphelele, futhi wabuye wavuka ukuze asinike ukuphila okusha. Umusa. Umsebenzi wethu ukuphila impilo efanele yobizo Lwakhe.

Futhi khumbula ukuthi awufanisi umKristu ongumsiki wamakhukhi. Uguqulwa kusukela ngaphakathi ngaphandle - wenziwa kabusha emfanekisweni kaNkulunkulu owawudalelwe wona. Isibonelo: omunye wemikhuba yakho emisha kuzoba ukupha. Kodwa awunikezi imali ukuze uthole amaphuzu noNkulunkulu. Upha ngoba uNkulunkulu ungumuphi, futhi ufunda ukuphana njengaye. 

Ngakho, isikhathi sokuqala. Kukhona uhambo oluzayo. Kukhona uhambo empilweni kanye nohambo ngeBhayibheli. UNkulunkulu unomsebenzi wakho, ngakho qedela osukuqalile. Kodwa akuwona umsebenzi wakho wedwa, umsebenzi Wakhe, futhi:

“Owaqala umsebenzi omuhle kinina uyakuwufeza” (KwabaseFilipi 1:6).

Waqala lokhu - Uzokuqeda. Futhi khumbula, awuwedwa neze. Akasoze akuyekela noma akushiye (KumaHeberu 13:5). Amazwi kaJesu okugcina kubafundi evangelini likaMathewu yilawa:

“Futhi ngokuqinisekile nginani njalo kuze kube sekupheleni kwezwe” (NgokukaMathewu 28:20).
