Imingcele Enempilo Ngobuchwepheshe

Ubuchwepheshe kanye nenkundla yezokuxhumana kuyizipho ezimbili ezinkulu zesizukulwane sethu. Kuyamangaza ukuthi singalisabalalisa kanjani iVangeli, sihlale sixhumene nabangani emhlabeni wonke, futhi sabelane ngesikhuthazo esikrinini sonke. Kodwa ngisho nezipho ezinkulu zidinga imingcele enobuhlakani. 

Uma singanakile, inkundla yezokuxhumana ingaqothula izimpilo zethu, iqalise ukuqhathanisa, futhi yandise imizwa yokukhathazeka nokudangala. Uma simatasa kakhulu siphenya izimpilo zabanye abantu, siphuthelwa ukuphila ngokwethu. 

Iqiniso liwukuthi, uNkulunkulu unikeze ngamunye wethu isikhathi esilinganiselwe lapha emhlabeni, futhi sifuna ukusisebenzisa ngokugcwele leso sikhathi. Ngakho-ke, kufanele sizibuze—ingabe isikhathi sethu ezinkundleni zokuxhumana sihlonipha uNkulunkulu nabanye, noma siyasiphazamisa kuNkulunkulu nabanye?

Isayensi yobuchopho isitshela ukuthi ukuba umlutha wobuchwepheshe kulula kakhulu. Ukuthola ukuthandwa ezinkundleni zokuxhumana kunikeza ubuchopho bethu i-dopamine—ikhemikhali yokuzizwa ujabule ekhishwa lapho senza okuthile okuhle. 

Inkinga ukuthi, ubuchopho bethu abuxhunyiwe ukuze sizwe i-dopamine engaka ngokushesha okungaka. Nezinkampani zenkundla yezokuxhumana ziyazi lokhu. Eqinisweni, baklama izinhlelo zokusebenza ukuze ngaso sonke isikhathi uma uyivula, ungazi ukuthi uzokuthola yini ukuthandwa noma cha. Lokho kulangazela—ngisho nangaphezu kwalokho okuthandwayo—kukhiqiza i-dopamine elutha kakhulu abacwaningi abayiqhathanisa nokugembula.

Futhi, ubuchwepheshe abusona isitha lapha. Kodwa, njengoba uPawulu esikhumbuza: 

Uthi: “Ngivunyelwe ukwenza noma yini,” kepha akusikho konke okulungile kuwe. Futhi ngisho noma “ngivunyelwe ukwenza noma yini,” akumele ngibe yisigqila sanoma yini. 1 KwabaseKorinte 6:12 NLT 

Kuhle ngathi ukusebenzisa ubuchwepheshe kanye nenkundla yezokuxhumana. Kufanele nje sibe nemingcele efanele ukuqinisekisa ukuthi inkundla yezokuxhumana nobuchwepheshe akusisebenzisi. 

Kudingeka futhi siqaphele ukuthi asizami ukusebenzisa inkundla yezokuxhumana ukufeza izinto ezingadalelwanga yona. Ngokuvamile kungase kuqale izingxabano futhi kubhidlize ubuhlobo, ngakho kuhle ukukhumbula ukuthi ngisho nasezikhathini zeBhayibheli, abantu babezigcina izingxoxo ezibalulekile ukuze bahlangane ubuso nobuso. Bheka nje leli vesi ku-2 KaJohane: 

Ngisenokuningi engingakusho kuwe, kodwa angifuni ukukwenza ngephepha noyinki. Ngokuba ngithemba ukunivakashela masinyane, ngikhulume nani ubuso nobuso. Khona-ke intokozo yethu iyophelela. 2 KaJohane 1:12 NLT 

Inkundla yezokuxhumana nobuchwepheshe yizipho ezinhle, kodwa zidinga ukuzibophezela. Masidale okujwayelekile okungcono ngokubeka imingcele efanele, siyisebenzise ngendlela efanele, futhi silinganisela ukusebenzisana kwethu ku-inthanethi nokuxhumana ubuso nobuso. 

Thandaza: Nkulunkulu, ngiphe ubuhlakani bokwazi ukuthi yimiphi imingcele okufanele ngiyibeke ezinkundleni zokuxhumana kanye nokusebenzisa ubuchwepheshe. Ngisize ngiphathe isikhathi sami kahle futhi ngithathe wonke amathuba okusebenzela nokuthanda abanye ngendlela owenza ngayo. Egameni likaJesu, ameni. 

Inselelo: Setha imingcele ethile yokusebenzisa inkundla yezokuxhumana nobuchwepheshe. Cabanga ngokuthatha usuku lokuphumula ezinkundleni zokuxhumana, futhi ukhulume ngalokho okufundile nabangani obathembayo.
