Ujesu wasiyala ukuba silethe inkululeko kubathunjwa, Izindaba Ezinhle kwabampofu, futhi simemezele umusa kaNkulunkulu. Umfowabo, uJakobe, wathi akufanele nje sizwe la mazwi—kufanele siwenze. Wachaza inkolo yangempela njengokunakekela izintandane nabafelokazi. Sibona ukubikezelwa okumangalisayo emiBhalweni futhi sizwa ubuhlungu babantu abahluphekayo ezinhliziyweni zethu, kodwa singenza njani? kubukeka kukhulu futhi kuhlakazekile. Sike sakhuluma ngokuhlanganyela ukudla kanye nokuqala ubudlelwane nomakhelwane bethu, kodwa yini esingayenza ngeziboshwa, imilutha, abafelokazi, izisulu zokushushumbiswa kwabantu, izingane ezitholwayo nezintandane? Abanye bethu banethuba lokumema labomakhelwane ezimpilweni zethu. Abambalwa bethu bangase baqale ukunyakaza nezinhlangano. Iningi lethu lizizwa livimbekile.
Uwilliam Wilberforce wayengumuntu owayengavumi, oshisekayo ngokomoya emphakathini ohloniphekile wekhulu leshumi nesishiyagalolunye. Wayengeyena nje owenkolo, nokho. Uwilberforce wayengumenzi egameni lomakhelwane bakhe ababethunjwe kakhulu, abampofu nabasengozini. Ilungu lephalamende laseNgilandi lahola impi yokuqeda ubugqila eBrithani futhi labeka indinganiso entsha emazweni aseNtshonalanga. Kodwa akazange akwenze yedwa, futhi wayekwazi. Nawa amazwi ka-Wilberforce ngokwakhe mayelana nenani lomnikelo oyingqayizivele womuntu ngamunye.
“Sinamafomu ahlukene esabelwe wona esikoleni sempilo, izipho ezihlukene esiziphiwayo. Konke akukhangi okuhle. Insimbi ilusizo, nakuba ingacwebezeli njengedayimane. Igolide alinalo iphunga lembali. Ngakho-ke abantu abahlukene banezinhlobo ezehlukene zokwenza okuhle, futhi kumele sibe neso kukho bonke.”
Uwilliam Wilberforce, umbhubhisi kanye nombhali we-UbuKristu Bangempela
Kuzwakala kujwayelekile? Uyasiqaphela isihloko sencwadi yakhe? Amazwi akhe afana nalawo avela komunye umuntu ongaguquki owabhala ngobuKristu bangempela. Encwadini yokuqala kamphostoli uPawuli kwabaseKorinte wasikhumbuza ukuthi singumzimba munye onezitho eziningi. Ukube wonke umzimba ubuyindlebe, besiyobona kanjani? Uma sonke siqale izinhlangano ezingenzi nzuzo zokunakekela izintandane, ubani ongavolontiya? Ubani obezonakekela iziboshwa? Ekuqaleni kwencwadi yakhe, uPawulu wasebenzisa umfanekiso wezolimo ukuze aveze iphuzu elifanayo. Umuntu angatshala imbewu, kodwa kuba omunye oniselayo.

Ukubiza ngokubhala kabusha indaba yokungabi nababa, kodwa uJohn ungowokuqala ukuvuma ukuthi inhlangano yakhe ifana nensimbi kunedayimane. “Asenzi ubulungiswa obuhehayo. UmSamariya Olungileyo naye akenzanga ubulungiswa obuhehayo.” Sonke siyizingxenye ezahlukene. Nakuba singewona sonke amadayimane, sonke sibalulekile. Abanye bethu badinga ukuba yinsimbi. Asikwazi sonke ukuqala umbuthano. Iningi lethu lidinga ukuzigcina liqhubeka.
