UNkulunkulu Wadala Konke
Ngaphambi kokuba kube khona indawo, isikhathi, izinto, ama-molecule, noma abantu, kwakukhona uNkulunkulu.
Ekuqaleni uNkulunkulu wadala izulu nomhlaba. UGenesise 1:1 NIV
Into yokuqala esiyifundayo ngoNkulunkulu ukuthi wadala. Ukuthi uNkulunkulu wadala amazulu nomhlaba yindlela yamaHeberu yasendulo yokusho ukuthi uNkulunkulu wadala konke. Kancane kancane, igama elilodwa ngesikhathi, umbhali kaGenesise usethula kuNkulunkulu, asisize sithole ukuthi unjani. Wayekhona kungakabi bikho lutho, futhi wadala konke.
Okwenza indaba yendalo yeBhayibheli ihluke kwezinye izindaba zendalo zasendulo ukuthi kusukela uNkulunkulu adala indawo yonke, uNkulunkulu akayona ingxenye yendawo yonke. Ezinye izindaba zendalo zasendulo zivame ukuveza onkulunkulu njengengxenye yendalo, kodwa iBhayibheli lisethula kuNkulunkulu ongaphezu kwendalo Yakhe—ongcwele futhi ohlukanisiwe.
UNkulunkulu esimaziyo ukhona phakade ngaphandle kwemingcele yendawo, isikhathi, nezinto. Yingakho umbuzo othi, “Uma uNkulunkulu adala zonke izinto, ubani-ke owadala uNkulunkulu?” kuwukungaqondi kahle kukaNkulunkulu okwembulwe eBhayibhelini. UNkulunkulu weBhayibheli ungumuntu ongadalwanga, owaphakade okhona ngaphandle kwendawo yonke.
Ekuqaleni uNkulunkulu wadala izulu nomhlaba. Manje umhlaba wawuungenalutho futhi ungenalutho, ubumnyama babuphezu kotwa, futhi uuMoya kaNkulunkulu wawuzulazula phezu kwamanzi 4>. Genesise 1:1-2 NIV
Okulandelayo, sifunda ukuthi uNkulunkulu weBhayibheli unguNkulunkulu wokuhleleka. Lapho uGenesise echaza umhlaba njengongenasimo nongenalutho, uchaza umhlaba okungenawo ukuhleleka. Yilokho okushiwo okungenasimo - ukuphazamiseka nokuphithizela. Kodwa uNkulunkulu owadala yonke into ngaphandle kwesizathu wakhipha ukuhleleka kuleyo siphithiphithi. Okusho ukuthi akukho lutho uNkulunkulu aludalayo ngephutha—konke kudalwa.
Ngakho lapho umhlaba uzwa sengathi uyaphuma ekulawuleni, singathola ithemba lokuthi uMdali wethu usaphethe, futhi ukhipha ukuhleleka esiphithiphithini. Lokho kufaka nawe. Awubanga umkhiqizo wenhlanhla, kodwa umphumela wenhloso kaNkulunkulu.
Lapho sithola okwengeziwe mayelana nemvelo yendawo yonke, yilapho siqonda ngokwengeziwe ukuthi ilungiswe kahle kangakanani, inikeza ngqo izimo ezidingekayo ukuze ukuphila kube khona. Kangangokuthi abantu abaningi baye babheka umklamo wendawo yonke njengobunye bobufakazi obunamandla bokuba khona kukaNkulunkulu ongumdali.
UNkulunkulu wathi ... UGenesise 1:3 NIV
Okunye kwalesi sahluko kusihambisa ohlelweni lukaNkulunkulu esebenza ukwakha nokugcwalisa indalo Yakhe. Kungamandla amazwi Akhe njengesenzo sothando uNkulunkulu asidalayo—hhayi ngokunqoba nobudlova. Futhi ekugcineni kwale ndaba yendalo, uNkulunkulu ubheka konke akudalile futhi Ukubiza ngokuthi “kuhle kakhulu.”
Ungubani-ke uNkulunkulu? Nokho, ngokwekhasi lokuqala leBhayibheli, uNkulunkulu unguMdali wazo zonke izinto.
