Igosa elithembekileyo- kwiSishwankathelo

“Ngubani ngokwenene olikhoboka elithembekileyo neliyingqondi?” (Mt. 24: 45-47)

Kwi post yangaphambili, Amalungu eforum aliqela anikezele ngolwazi oluxabisekileyo ngalo mbandela. Ngaphambi kokudlulela kwezinye izifundo, kungabonakala kuluncedo ukushwankathela izinto eziphambili zale ngxoxo.
Masiqale ngokufunda kwakhona iakhawunti epheleleyo yomzekeliso njengoko kubonelelwe nguLuka. Sifake nomxholo ngokunjalo, njengoncedo olongezelelweyo ekuqondeni.

Umzobo onomxholo

(ULuka 12: 32-48) “Musani ukoyika, mhlambi mncinane, ngenxa yokuba kukholekile kuYihlo ukuninika ubukumkani. 33 Thengisani izinto zenu ninikele ngezipho zenceba. Zenzeleni iingxowa zemali ezingagugiyo, ubutyebi obungapheliyo emazulwini, apho isela lingasondeliyo kungonakalisi nanundu. 34 Kuba apho bukhoyo ubuncwane benu, ziya kuba lapho neentliziyo zenu.
35 “Mazibe zibhinqiwe izinqe zenu, nezibane zenu zivutha, 36 nani ke yiba njengamadoda alinde inkosi yawo, xa ibuyayo Ukusuka emtshatweni, ukuze ukufika kwakhe kunye nokunkqonkqoza bamvulele kwaoko. 37 Anoyolo loo makhoboka ethi inkosi yawo yakufika iwafumane elindile! Inene ndithi kuni, Iya kubhinqa, ibangqengqise bona, ize isondele ibalungiselele. 38 Kwaye ukuba uthe wafika ngowesibini umlindo, nokuba ungowesithathu, Kwaye uyabafumana njalo, banoyolo! 39 Yazini ke oku, ukuba umninindlu ebesazi ukuba isela liza ngaliphi na ilixa, ange elindile, akavuma ukuba indlu yakhe igqojozwe. 40 Nani hlalani nilungile, ngenxa yokuba ngelixa eningacingi ngalo ukuba uNyana woMntu uyeza. "

⁴¹ ngelo xesha UPetros wathi: "Nkosi, ngaba lo mzekeliso uwuthetha kuthi okanye kubo bonke?" ⁴² kwaye INkosi yathi: “Ngubani ngokwenene igosa elithembekileyo, naleyo ilumkileyo, eyothi inkosi yakhe immisele phezu kwabalindi bayo ukuba abanike umlinganiselo wokutya ngexesha elifanelekileyo? ⁴³ Linoyolo elo khoboka, ukuba inkosi yalo yakufika ilifumana lisenjenjalo! ⁴⁴ Inene ndithi kuni, iya kulimisela phezu kwayo yonke impahla yayo. ⁴⁵ Kodwa ukuba ikhe ithi loo mkhonzi entliziyweni yakhe, 'Inkosi yam iyalibala ukuza,' ibe kufuneka iqalise ukubabetha izicaka nezicakakazi, idle, isele, inxile. ⁴⁶ inkosi yelo khoboka liya kuza ngemini engayilindelanga [nangelixa elingaziyo], kwaye iya kohlwaya ngokuqatha okukhulu kwaye inike isahlulo nabangathembekanga. ⁴⁷ Ke elo khoboka elakuqondayo ukuthanda kwenkosi yalo kodwa lalingalunganga okanye lenze ngokuhambelana nokuthanda kwalo liya kubethwa ngemivumbo emininzi. ⁴⁸ Kodwa lowo ebengaqondi kwaye kanjalo, izinto ezifanelwe ukubetha, uya kubethwa ezimbalwa. Ewe, wonke umntu onikwe okukhulu, kuya kufunwa okuninzi kuye; kwaye lowo abantu bambeke ukuba aphathe okuninzi, baya kufuna okungakumbi kunesiqhelo kuye.

Ukujongana nokuTolika okuSemthethweni

Uya kuphawula ukuba uYesu ukhuthaza abaphulaphuli bakhe ukuba baqhubeke nomkhondo. Ubhekisa kwinto enokwenzeka ukuba ukufika kwakhe kunokubonakala ngathi kulibazisekile. (“Ukuba ithe yafika ngowesibini umlindo, nokuba ngowesithathu…”), kodwa baya konwaba ukuba ubafumana besenza ukuthanda kwakhe ekufikeni kwakhe. Emva koko ugxininisa ukuba ukufika koNyana woMntu kuya kufana nokufika kwesela.
Ukuphendula koku, uPetros ubuza ukuba ngubani uYesu abhekisa kuye; Kubo bonke okanye kubo bonke? Qaphela ukuba uYesu akawuphenduli lo mbuzo. Endaweni yokuba abanike omnye umzekeliso, kodwa omnye udibene nowokuqala.
Ngokusemthethweni, sibanga ukuba u Yesu wafika ngo-1918. Ukuba ukhathalele ukuphanda oku kwi Ithala Leencwadi leWatchtowerUya kubona ukuba asinikeli ngxelo iqinisekileyo ngalo mhla. Isekwe ngokupheleleyo kwingqikelelo. Oko akuthethi ukuba ayilunganga. Nangona kunjalo, ukungqina, kufuneka sijonge kwenye indawo ubungqina. Kwimeko yomzekeliso, ukufika koNyana woMntu akaziwa kubaphulaphuli kwaye nangaphezulu koko, kuya kuba ngelixa apho "bangacingi ukuba kunokwenzeka". Saxela ukufika kukaKrestu ngo-1914 ngaphezulu kweminyaka engama-40 ngaphambi komsitho. Ngokuqinisekileyo sasicinga ukuba unyaka ka-1914 wawuza kwenzeka. Ke ngoko, ukuze amazwi kaYesu ayinyani, kufuneka sigqibe kwelokuba uthetha ngolunye ukufika. Umgqatswa oshiyekileyo kukufika kwakhe okanye ngaphambi nje kweArmagedon. Inye le nto inokwanela ukusilahla ukuqonda kwethu ngoku njengobuxoki.
Kuba sigqiba kwelokuba ikhoboka ludidi lwabantu, kwaye olu didi lwagwetywa ngo-1918 nguYesu lwaza emva koko lanikwa imbopheleleko yokongamela yonke impahla yakhe, kufuneka sizibuze ukuba kwenzeka ntoni kwezinye iindidi ezintathu. Bubuphi ubungqina obukhoyo bokuba udidi lwekhoboka elinobubi bohlwaywe kwaye njengoko ingxelo efanayo kaMateyu isitsho, belila nokutshixiza kwamazinyo alo kwinkulungwane edlulileyo? Ukongeza, luphi udidi lwekhoboka olufumana imivumbo emininzi kunye nolunye udidi lwekhoboka olufumana imivumbo embalwa? Zohlwaywa njani ezi zigaba zibini nguYesu ngemivumbo? Kuba le yimbali kwaye iphantse yalikhulu leminyaka kwixa lethu elidlulileyo, kufanele ukuba kucace okwangoku ukuba ngoobani ezi zigaba zithathu zongezelelekileyo zekhoboka nendlela abaphathwa ngayo nguYesu. Iimpendulo zale mibuzo zazingenakucaca njani kuwo onke amaKristu?

Ukuqonda okungolunye

Inyani elula kukuba asinokwazi ngokuqinisekileyo ukuba ngubani igosa elithembekileyo okanye ezinye iintlobo zekhoboka ezintathu. Ibhayibhile ibonisa ngokucacileyo ukuba baya kuchongwa kuphela njengesiphumo sokufika kunye nomgwebo olandelayo weNkosi yabo. Singajonga macala onke ngoku ukubona ukuba ngubani osondlayo kwaye enze izigqibo ezithile, kodwa ngaba zininzi izinto ezinokwenzeka? Ngaba liQumrhu Elilawulayo? Kodwa ngaba oko bekuya kuthetha ukuba ngabo bodwa abaya kumiselwa phezu kwayo yonke impahla yeNkosi? Ngaba yintsalela yabathanjiswa emhlabeni? Asinakuyithabatha loo nto, kodwa kufuneka siphendule umbuzo wokuba basondla njani, kuba abanalo igalelo kumanqaku apapashiweyo, okanye ukwenziwa kweQumrhu Elilawulayo, okanye ulwalathiso lombutho.
Mhlawumbi amakhoboka avela kuthi sonke njengabantu ngabanye, njengokuba kunjalo nakweminye imizekeliso kaKristu esebenzisa amakhoboka njengemifanekiso. Kuyinyani ukuba ukutya kokomoya esikutyayo kuyenziwa, kuhlelwe, kushicilelwe kwaye kwasasazwa phantse kuphela ngabo bazibanga bengolunye udidi lwezimvu esikholelwa ukuba luquka abo banethemba lasemhlabeni. Inkqubo yokondla iqala phezulu kwiQumrhu Elilawulayo kwaye inabela ngqo kumshicileli ngamnye. Oodade wethu bangumkhosi onamandla osasaza iindaba ezilungileyo. Ziba negalelo ekwabeni ukutya kokomoya.
Ngaba sicebisa ukuba onke amaKristu abhekiswa kulo mzekeliso; ukuba njengabantu ngabanye siza kugwetywa nguKristu ekufikeni kwakhe kwaye sibekwe kwelinye lala mahlelo mane amakhoboka? Inokwenzeka kuphela, kodwa into esiyithethayo kukuba asinakukwazi ukuzaliseka kwalo mzekeliso wesiprofeto de ubungqina bube phambi kwethu ngexesha lokufika kweNkosi.

Ukutya kwengqondo

Ngubani onikela ubungqina kuthi malunga nekhoboka elithembekileyo? Asingabo kanye abathi bangamakhoboka? Ngubani onikela ubungqina bokuba eli khoboka belinegunya phezu kwayo yonke impahla kaYesu ukusukela ngo-1918? Kwakhona, likhoboka elifanayo. Ke siyazi ukuba ngubani ikhoboka kuba ikhoboka lisixelela njalo.
Nantsi into ethethwa nguYesu malunga nolu hlobo lokuqiqa.

Ukuba mna ndingqina ngam, ubungqina bam abuyonyani. (UJohn 5: 31)

Ikhoboka alinakho ukungqina ngokwalo. Ingqina okanye ubungqina kufuneka buvele kwenye indawo. Ukuba loo nto ibisebenza kuNyana kaThixo emhlabeni, ingakanani ke ngoku ebantwini.
NguYesu oya kuthi, ekufikeni kwakhe, anike ubungqina bokuba ngubani kula makhoboka mane. Iziphumo zomgwebo wakhe ziya kubonakala kubo bonke ababukeleyo.
Ke ngoko, masingazikhathazi ngokutolika lo mzekeliso. Masilinde ngomonde ukufika kweNkosi yethu kwaye okwangoku sithabathele entliziyweni amazwi akhe esilumkiso avela kuLuka 12: 32-48 nakuMateyu 24: 36-51 kwaye senze konke okusemandleni ethu ukukhuthaza iimfuno zoBukumkani kunye nokulungiselela iimfuno zabazalwana noodadewethu kude kube ngulo mhla uYesu eze esebuqaqawulini boBukumkani.
