Akungesabi Empini Isampula

UJesu ukhuthaza ukusetshenziswa kokholo ezintweni ezibonakala zingenakwenzeka. 

Ukholo lusebenza kanjani? Okokuqala, ukholo luqala lapho ukucabanga kuphela khona. 

1 KwabaseKorinte 2:5 ithi ukholo lwethu “alumi ekuhlakanipheni kwabantu, kodwa lusemandleni kaNkulunkulu.”

Ukholo lusekelwe ekutheni uNkulunkulu ungubani - isimo Sakhe esingaguquki, amandla Akhe kanye neZwi Lakhe. Ukholo alusekelwe emandleni ethu, ekwazini kwethu noma ekuhlakanipheni kwethu. 

U-Abrahama wabonisa lolu kholo “olungenangqondo”. KumaHeberu 11:8 uthi, “Ngokukholwa u-Abrahama walalela ebizwa ukuba aphume, aye endaweni abezakuyamukeliswa njengefa. Waphuma, engazi lapho eya khona. (ukugcizelela kungokwami)

Ngokungafani neze no-Abraham, sifuna ukuqonda zonke izinto ezinhle nezimbi ngaphambi kokuthi senze isinqumo, noma sithathe isinyathelo esiya phambili. Kodwa ukholo lumayelana nokuthembela okuphelele nokulalela uNkulunkulu ozindlela zakhe zingaphezu kokuqonda kwethu. 

Njengo-Abrahama, ukholo luyokwenza wenze izinto ezibonakala ziqinile. Kuzokwenza ubukeke uyisiwula. Kodwa, khumbula, izenzo ezinjalo zokholo zikhuthaza impumelelo enkulu kakhulu. 

Izaga 3:5-6 ziyasinxusa ukuthi, “Thembela kuJehova ngayo yonke inhliziyo yakho, ungenciki kokwakho ukuqonda. Mazise yena ezindleleni zakho zonke, uyakuqondisa imikhondo yakho.”

Masivule lawo mavesi:

Thembela eNkosini – Mina nawe sibizelwe ukuba nokholo oluphelele kuNkulunkulu

Unganciki kokwakho ukuqonda - Yekela ukucabanga kwakho

Mazise yena ezindleleni zakho zonke - Thembela kuNkulunkulu kukho konke okwenzayo 

Futhi Uyokwenza izindlela zakho ziqonde - umphumela: UNkulunkulu uzonikeza indela yodlula. 

Esinye sezithiyo ezinkulu zokholo ukucabanga komuntu. Kulapho kuphela udedela ingqondo lapho ukholo lungakwazi ukusebenza ngokugcwele.
