Liyini Iqiniso?Isampula

Inkululeko!

Ukwazi uJesu kuwukwazi Iqiniso. Iqiniso elingokoqobo, elimileyo, elingaguquki, futhi elinikeza ukuphila ngoba ligoqwe kuJesu uqobo Lwakhe, umthombo wethu. Sixoxile ukuthi kududuza kanjani ukwazi ukuthi iqiniso alinasizathu noma alinakwa, kodwa lithembekile futhi liyaziwa; ubuhlobo esingabeka izimpilo zethu kubo zonke izinsuku. Kodwa lokhu akusiletheli nje kuphela ukukhululeka kokuzinza, iqiniso libuye liphathe inkululeko noma kuphi lapho liya khona.

Kubaluleke kakhulu ukuthola lokhu, ngoba, njengo-Adamu no-Eva emuva kuGenesise 3, singase silingwe ngamanga okuthi iqiniso, njengoba lichazwa uNkulunkulu kanye nobudlelwane bethu Naye, empeleni liyakhawulela futhi liyacindezela. Lapho u-Adamu no-Eva bekhetha ukukholelwa inyoka, babevumelana nayo ukuthi uNkulunkulu wayebagcinele okuthile. Sibona ngokucacile ukuthi akunjalo, nokuthi uNkulunkulu wayefuna ukuqapha izingane Zakhe ekususweni Kuye—ukuba zingahlangabezani nokudideka nokufa okufika lapho sihlukaniswa nomthombo wokuhleleka nokuphila. Kodwa lawo manga anamandla. 

Amanga ayasibopha. Asivalela emjikelezweni wokucasha, ukulutheka, amahloni, nokuzihlukanisa. Iqiniso linomphumela ophambene. Alivimbeli noma alicindezeli; liyakhulula ngempela.

UJesu wathi kumaJuda akholwayo kuye: “Uma nibambelela emfundisweni yami, ningabafundi bami isibili; Khona-ke niyolazi iqiniso, futhi iqiniso liyonikhulula.” NgokukaJohane 8:31-32

Uye wakuthola lokho? Ukwazi iqiniso kuyasikhulula! Le nkululeko iphumela ekubeni sisondele futhi sithembele kuJesu (iQiniso). Bheka, ukuhamba eqinisweni akukhona nje ukunamathela ohlwini lwemithetho; kuwukuthokozela ubudlelwano noMsindisi, nomkhululi wabathunjwa uqobo Lwakhe. Lapho eshumayela esinagogeni ekuqaleni kwenkonzo Yakhe, uJesu ucaphuna umprofethi u-Isaya: 

“ ‘UMoya weNkosi uphezu kwami, ngokuba ingigcobile ukuba ngishumayele izindaba ezinhle kwabampofu. Ungithume ukuba ngimemezele ukukhululwa kweziboshwa, nokubona kwezimpumputhe, nokukhulula abacindezelweyo ....’” NgokukaLuka 4:18 NIV

UJesu uqhubeka nokusho ngokusobala ukuthi le ncazelo kaMesiya iwumlando Wakhe—lokhu kunguYena nokuthi uzele ukwenzani: wakhulula abantu. 

Ngakho-ke ungathengi amanga akudala akulinge ukuthi ulahle iqiniso ngoba liyakubambezela. Akunjalo. Iqiniso linobuso futhi linguJesu. Owafika ukuzosikhulula ngisho nakumajele esizenzele wona.

Inselelo: Thola amanga akuvimbela ukuba uphile ngendlela uNkulunkulu ayeyihlosile. Kungase kube yinto encane ngempela ethinta ubudlelwane bakho ngobuqili. Kungase kube yinto enkulu kakhulu osunesikhathi eside ubhekene nayo. Kubhale phansi bese uphenya eZwini likaJesu ukuze uthole iqiniso elikukhululayo. Zibophezele ekubambeni ngekhanda ivesi uNkulunkulu akubonisa lona ukuze uzikhumbuze noma nini lapho ulingeka ukuba uphinde ungene kulawo manga.
