UJESU INKOSI: Inkonzo yePhasikal Ngo Timothy KellerIsampula
“Ukufa Kokufa”
UJesu wathi kubafundi bakhe: “Ngizakuvuka ngosuku lwesithathu.” Wakusho kuMarku 8, futhi kuMarku 9, nokho futhi kuMarku 10.
Njengoba kunikezwe lokho kuphindaphinda, kukhona okuthakazelisayo okwenzekayo. Ngosuku lwesithathu ngemva kokufa kukaJesu, abekho abafundi besilisa eduze; laba bafundi besifazane bayabonakala, kodwa beza nazo zonke izinongo ezibizayo namakha okwakuvame ukugcotshwa ngawo isidumbu. Akekho olindele uvuko. Ukube ubungumlobi weVangeli uMarku, uzama ukubhala indaba eqanjiwe enokwethenjelwa, futhi uye waba noJesu esho kaningi kubafundi bakhe ukuthi wayeyovuka ngosuku lwesithathu, ubungeke yini ube nomfundi oyedwa okucabangisisa kahle lokhu ngemva kukaJesu? ukufa, ethi kwabanye, “Hhawu, usuku lwesithathu. Mhlawumbe kufanele sihambe siyobheka ithuna likaJesu. Yini engalimaza?" Lokho kungaba okunengqondo kuphela. Kodwa akekho owasho into enjalo. Eqinisweni, babengalindele nhlobo uvuko. Akuzange kwenzeke kubo. Ingelosi eyayiphambi kwethuna elingenalutho kwadingeka ikhumbuze laba besifazane: “Niyombona, njengoba nje eshilo kini.” Ukube uMarku wayenza le ndaba, ubengeke ayibhale ngale ndlela.
Nali iphuzu: Uvuko lwaluyinto engenakwenzeka kubafundi bokuqala, njengoba kungenakwenzeka ngabo ukuba bakholwe, njengoba kunjalo kwabaningi bethu namuhla. Kuyavunywa, izizathu zabo beziyohluka kwezethu. AmaGreki ayengakholelwa ovukweni; ngokombono wezwe wamaGreki, ukuphila kwangemva kokufa kwakuwukukhululwa komphefumulo emzimbeni. Kubo uvuko lwalungeke lube ingxenye yokuphila ngemva kokufa. Ngokuqondene namaJuda, amanye awo ayekholelwa ovukweni oluvamile lwesikhathi esizayo lapho umhlaba wonke wawuyokwenziwa musha, kodwa ayengenawo umqondo wokuthi kukhona umuntu ovuka kwabafileyo. Abantu bosuku lukaJesu babengalindelekile ukuba bakholelwe ovukweni njengathi.
Ingabe kunzima kuwe ukukholelwa ukuthi uJesu wavuka kwabafileyo? Ukuvuswa kukaJesu kukunika kanjani ithemba?
