Ukuvikela

Ungasingenisi ekulingweni, kodwa usikhulule kokubi

Ibhayibheli likuthatha njengokubalulekile ukuthi silwa nobubi nokuthi lena impi engagcini nje ngokumelana nohlobo oluthile lwezimiso zobubi ezingabonakali, kodwa futhi nobubi obusesimweni somuntu. Umqondo wamandla athile amabi, ahlakaniphile asebenza ezweni namuhla uyinto yabantu abambalwa kakhulu, ngaphandle kokuba eyizinkolo, abayithatha ngokweqiniso. Njengoba kunikezwe ubufakazi bobubi emhlabeni namuhla ngithola ukuthi lokhu kuyamangaza. Cishe kunezizathu ezimbalwa zalokhu kuxoshwa: ububi buvamise ukwenziwa i-caricatured (cabanga ngodeveli wekhathuni ogqoke i-pitchfork) noma uhlukunyezwe njengamacala abuhlungu okukhishwa kwamademoni okungahambi kahle, noma lezo zinkulumo ezidabukisayo njengokuthi 'udeveli ungenze ngakwenza'.

Eqinisweni, ake siqale ngalowo musho omubi. Izinguqulo zeBhayibheli ezindala zoMthandazo WeNkosi zazinomqondo ‘wokukhululwa ebubini’ njengokungathi isimo sefilosofi esingaqondakali. Nokho, kuyavumelana ukuthi lokhu uJesu akhuluma ngakho lapha ukukhululwa komubi. Manje kunezinkinga eziningi lapha futhi ngikubhekise encwadini yami yoMthandazo WeNkosi ukuze uthole ukuhlanganisa okuningiliziwe. Noma kunjalo, kubonakala sengathi ukuze sibe yinoma yiluphi uhlobo 'lomKristu weBhayibheli' ongaguquki kufanele sikholwe ebukhoneni bomoya omubi emhlabeni, ongaphansi kakhulu kunoNkulunkulu, kodwa nokho okwaziyo ukumelana naye futhi ongumphikisi ononya nonamandla wamakholwa. Eqinisweni, indlela umhlaba oyiyo, ngokuvamile kulula ukukholelwa ebukhoneni bukadeveli kunokukholelwa kuNkulunkulu omuhle.

Omubi lapha kukhulunywa ngaye njengesilingo. Nalokhu, kudinga ukuphathwa ngokucophelela. Enye ingozi iwukuthi sicabanga ukuthi nguNkulunkulu ngokwakhe osivivinyayo nokuthi, emthandazweni weNkosi, sicela uNkulunkulu ukuba ‘akhululeke. Mhlawumbe indlela engcono kakhulu yokubuka lesi sigaba somthetho ukwenza umehluko phakathi nokuhlola kanye nesilingo. Ukuhlola, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ngokwenyama noma ngokomoya, kuyinto enhle. Ukuphasa isivivinyo kuyinto ekhuthazayo futhi esenza sibone ukuthi sesikhulile. Noma kunjalo, uma uNkulunkulu esebenzisa uvivinyo ukuze asenze sikhule, udeveli angasiphendula sibe isilingo sokusephula.

Kungase kusize ukucabanga ukuthi le ndima ekhuluma ngayo yinto engachazwa kokubili njengesilingo kanye nokuhlola. Ngokombono kaNkulunkulu esikutholayo kuwuvivinyo lokubonisa izinga lokholo lwethu; uma siphumelela ovivinyweni singakhuthazeka kulesi sibonakaliso sokukhula kwethu ngokomoya. Kodwa uma sithatha ubukhona bukadeveli, khona-ke ukuhlolwa okufanayo kungabonakala ngombono ohlukile; uma sehluleka khona-ke uye washaya inkolo yethu yobuKristu.

Pho sikhuleka ini lapha? Kalula nje sithandazela ukuthi, lapho sibhekene nesilingo noma ukuvivinywa sizonqoba futhi singawi. Sithandazela ukuba uNkulunkulu asisize simelane nezinselelo zomubi. Ake nginikeze ukusikisela okuthathu lapha.

Okokuqala, kufanele siqaphele ukuthi nsuku zonke, ngazo zonke izindlela, kunezilingo nezilingo ezibheke kithi. Kudingeka sizilungiselele.

Okwesibili, asibhekani nomubi singenakuzivikela. Unkulunkulu unike abantwana bakhe uMoya oNgcwele ukuba abasize. Kuwubuwula obumangalisayo ukuzama ukubhekana nesilingo ngaphandle kokuphendukela kulowo uNkulunkulu amnike abantwana bakhe ukuba abavikele.

Okwesithathu, iqhinga lakudala ‘lomubi’ ukuthi uma siwa - futhi sonke siwe ngesikhathi esithile noma kwesinye - uzama ukusenza sikholwe ukuthi, ngalokhu kwehluleka, siqedile unomphela noNkulunkulu. Eqinisweni, uma singabantwana bakaNkulunkulu ngempela, khona-ke nakuba ukwehluleka kwethu ukuphumelela ovivinyweni kumdabukisa uBaba wethu osezulwini, akusona isizathu sokuba asilahle. Ukwehluleka kwethu ukuphumelela esivivinyweni akubhubhisi uhlobo lobuhlobo bethu noBaba wethu osezulwini – sihlala singabantwana bakhe – kodwa kulimaza izinga lobudlelwano bethu.
