Endaweni Yethu: Iminikelo Yokuzila Kusukela Ngesikhathi SomusaIsampula
Akukho ukulahlwa
INkosi uJesu, uNkulunkulu kusukela kwaphakade, yathatha inyama yomuntu futhi yeza yaphila emhlabeni mathupha ngenxa yezizathu eziningi. Kodwa inhloko yazo iwukukhulula labo ababegcinwe ebugqilini ukuphila kwabo konke ngokwesaba ukufa, njengoba umlobi wamaHeberu ekubeka esahlukweni sesibili.
UJesu waphila impilo yokuthatha indawo yethu, ethobela yonke imithetho kaNkulunkulu neyomuntu futhi eyigcina yonke ngokuphelele. Wanikela ngomzimba wakhe ekuhlukunyezweni nasekuhluphekeni, azi ukuthi ngale ndlela isijeziso esasisifanele sasidluliselwa ngokuphelele kuye. Ekugcineni, wazinikela ekufeni uqobo, futhi ngokushintshana okukhulu okwenzeka eKalvari, ukufa kwethu kwaba ukufa kwakhe futhi ubumsulwa bakhe baba okwethu.
Isiphetho? “Manje akukho ukulahlwa kwabakuKristu Jesu, ngokuba ngoKristu Jesu umthetho kaMoya wokuphila ungikhululile emthethweni wesono nokufa” (KwabaseRoma 8:1, 2). Yingakho ungaphinde wesabe uNkulunkulu. Izono zakho zaxolelwa, zonke, ngokusobala, ngokukhululekile, kudala, ngaphandle kokubhekisela ekusebenzeni kwakho. Kuyifa, hhayi inkokhelo. Ngeyakho-bonke abakholwa ukuthi banayo.
UNkulunkulu uyasho ngempela—akukho ukulahlwa kusho ukulahlwa. Ungakhipha umoya manje.
