Endaweni Yethu: Iminikelo Yokuzila Kusukela Ngesikhathi SomusaIsampula
Ibusisiwe iNkosi
Alikho izwe elenza umcimbi wobukhosi kangcono kuneBrithani. U-Elizabeth II uye wabusa isikhathi eside kangangokuthi asebekhulile kuphela abangakhumbula ukugcotshwa kokugcina ngo-1953, kodwa ngokushesha umhlaba uzobona okune. Inkosi entsha izofika ngodwendwe lwamakhosi, ilandela Umphathi WeNkosi Ephethe umqhele wegolide oqinile ka-St. Edward, futhi kamuva izotshalwa ne-Golden Spurs (yakudala ngo-A.D. 1189), igilavu yasebukhosini, i-golden orb, nentonga yegolide.
Yeka ukuthi uhambo lukaJesu lwasebukhosini lwaluhluke kanjani eNtabeni Yeminqumo engena eJerusalema. Intaba yakhe yayiyithole lembongolo, isilwane esincane esasingeke siphakamise ikhanda laso ngaphezu kwesixuku. Nokho abantu abaningi kulesosixuku babona ukuthi ungowasebukhosini kangangokuthi baqala ukuhuba bathi: “Ibusisiwe inkosi ezayo egameni leNkosi!” (Luka 19:38) Isambatho sobukhosi esasimlindile kwakuyijazi elidala lebutho lamaRoma; intonga anikwa yona yayiwumhlanga omncane; umqhele owawubekwe ekhanda lakhe wawungengowegolide kodwa wameva.
Igazi elehla ebusweni bakhe emeveni kwakuyigazi lomuntu kanye negazi likaNkulunkulu. Ngakho-ke inamandla okuthenga nokuhlenga. Njengomuntu uKristu angasimela enkantolo kaNkulunkulu; njengoNkulunkulu angamela umhlaba wonke wezoni eziswele. Ngemivimbo yakhe siphilisiwe thina.
INtaba Yeminqumo yasebenza njengolunye udwendwe olubalulekile lokuthweswa ubukhosi. Kwakukuleyo ndawo lapho uKristu ovusiwe anyukela khona ezulwini. Ukuthobeka Kwakhe manje esikhundleni senkazimulo; izikhonzi zakhe manje ziyizingelosi eziyizinkulungwane eziyishumi eziphindwe kazinkulungwane eziyishumi; ubukhona bakhe noMoya wakhe kugcwalise indawo yonke; ubusa zonke izinto ukuze kuzuze abafowabo nodadewabo. Ngokukholwa, nathi singabasebukhosini. Ubukhosi basezulwini.
