Usindiso, Icandelo 3: Imbewu

Kwi nqaku yangaphambili, sixoxe ngendlela uAdam noEva ababudlalisa ngayo ulwalamano lwabo olukhethekileyo kunye noThixo. Zonke izinto ezoyikisayo kunye neentlekele zembali yoluntu zihamba zisuka kwilahleko eyodwa. Oku kulandela ke ngoko, ukuba ukubuyiselwa kolo lwalamano luthetha ukuxolelaniswa noThixo njengoBawo lusindiso lwethu. Ukuba konke okubi kuhamba ngokulahleka kwayo, kunoko konke okulungileyo kuya kuvela ekubuyiselweni kwayo. Ngamagama alula, siyasindiswa xa siphinda siba yinxalenye yosapho lukaThixo, xa siphinda sibiza uYehova, Bawo. (I-Ro 8: 15) Ukuze oku kwenzeke, akufuneki ukuba silinde izehlo eziguqula umhlaba, njengemfazwe yemini enkulu kaThixo uSomandla, iArmagedon. Usindiso lunokwenzeka kumntu ngamnye kwaye nangaliphi na ixesha. Ngapha koko, sele yenzekile izihlandlo ezingenakubalwa ukusukela kwimihla kaKrestu. (I-Ro 3: 30-31; 4:5; 5:1, 9; 6: 7-11)

Kodwa siza ngaphambili.

Masibuyele ekuqalekeni, kwixesha apho uAdam noEva baphoselwa ngaphandle komyezo ababewulungiselelwe nguYise. UYehova wawahlutha ilifa. Ngokomthetho, babengaselulo usapho, bengenalo ilungelo lezinto zikaThixo, kubandakanya ubomi obungunaphakade. Babefuna ukuzilawula. Bafumana ukuzilawula. Babezilawula ngekamva labo — bengoothixo, bezenzela izigqibo ngokulungileyo nokubi. (IGe 3: 22Nangona abazali bethu bokuqala babenokuthi bangabantwana bakaThixo ngenxa yendalo yabo, ngokusemthethweni, ngoku babeziinkedama. Inzala yabo yayiya kuzalwa ngaphandle kosapho lukaThixo.

Ngaba inzala engenakubalwa ka-Adam noEva yayigwetyelwe ukuphila kwaye ife esonweni ingenathemba? UYehova akanakujika kwizithembiso zakhe. Akanakophula owakhe umthetho. Kwelinye icala, ilizwi lakhe alinakusilela. Ukuba abantu abonayo kufuneka bafe-kwaye sonke sizalelwe esonweni KwabaseRoma 5: 12 ithi-ingenzeka njani ukuba injongo engenakuguqulwa kaYehova yokugcwalisa umhlaba nabantwana bakhe esinqeni sika-Adam ifezeke? (IGe 1: 28) UThixo onothando angabagweba njani abamsulwa ukufa? Ewe singaboni, kodwa asikhethanga ukuba njalo, nanjengoko umntwana ozelwe ngumama amakhoboka eziyobisi ekhetha ukuzalwa elikhoboka leziyobisi.

Into eyongezelekileyo kwingxaki yingxaki ephambili yokungcwaliswa kwegama likaThixo. UMtyholi (Gr. idayabolos, elithetha “umhlebi”) wayesele engcolisile igama likaThixo. Abantu abaninzi banokumnyelisa uThixo ukutyhubela iminyaka, bembek 'ityala ngako konke ukubandezeleka nokoyikekayo kobukho bomntu. UThixo oluthando unokuyicombulula njani le ngxaki aze angcwalise igama lakhe?

Iingelosi zazibukele zonke ezi ziganeko zenzeka e-Eden. Ngelixa yenziwe ibalasele kunabantu, kodwa kumgangatho omncinci kuphela. (I-Ps 8: 5Banobukrelekrele obukhulu, ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo, kodwa akukho nto yaneleyo yokutyhila-ingakumbi ngelo xesha lokuqala-imfihlakalo yesisombululo sikaThixo kwesi sidima sibonakala singenakulungiseka nesinamandla. Kuphela lukholo lwabo kuYise osemazulwini olwaluza kubaqinisekisa ukuba uyakufumana indlela — leyo wayenza, kwangoko nangoko, nangona wakhetha ukugcina iinkcukacha zifihliwe kwinto eyabizwa ngokuba "Imfihlelo Engcwele". (Mnu 4: 11 Khawucinge nje ngemfihlakalo enokuthi isisombululo sayo sityhileke kancinci kwiinkulungwane nakwimilleni yexesha. Oku kwenziwa ngokobulumko bukaThixo, kwaye sinokumangaliswa kuko kuphela.

Okuninzi ngoku kutyhilwe malunga nemfihlakalo yosindiso lwethu, kodwa njengokuba sikufunda oku, kufuneka silumke singavumeli ikratshi lonakalise ukuqonda kwethu. Uninzi luye lwangamaxhoba kolo yeha loLuntu, bekholelwa ukuba bayifumene yonke. Kuyinyani, ngenxa yokujonga emva nokutyhilwa kukaYesu, ngoku sinombono opheleleyo wokufezekiswa kwenjongo kaThixo, kodwa asikayazi yonke loo nto. Nangona ukubhalwa kweBhayibhile kwakusondela esiphelweni, iingelosi ezulwini zazisalunguza kwimfihlakalo yenceba kaThixo. (I-1Pe 1: 12) Iinkolo ezininzi ziwele kumgibe wokucinga ukuba konke sele kwenzekile, nto leyo ebangele ukuba izigidi zabantu zilahlekiswe ngamathemba obuxoki noloyiko olungeyonyani, zombini ezo zinto zisasetyenziselwa ukunyanzelisa ukuthotyelwa kwemithetho yabantu.

Imbewu Iyavela

Umxholo weli nqaku uthi IGenesis 3: 15.

“Ndiya kubeka ubutshaba phakathi kwakho nomfazi, naphakathi kwembewu yakho nembewu yakhe; Yona iya kukutyumza intloko, wena uya kuyityumza isithende. (IGe 3: 15 NASB)

Esi sisiprofeto sokuqala ukubhalwa eBhayibhileni. Wawuthetha kwangoko emva kwemvukelo ka-Adam no-Eva, ebonisa ubulumko obungenasiphelo bukaThixo, kuba isenzo eso sasisenziwa, kunokuba uBawo wethu wasezulwini wayenaso isisombululo.

Igama eliguqulelwe apha ngokuthi “imbewu” lithatyathwe kwigama lesiHebhere Zera () Kwaye kuthetha 'inzala' okanye 'inzala'. UYehova wabona kwangaphambili imigca emibini yemilambo emi ngokuchasene ngokuqhubekayo kude kube sekupheleni. Inyoka apha isetyenziswe ngokomfuziselo, ibhekisa kuSathana obizwa kwenye indawo ebizwa ngokuba yinyoka "yoqobo" okanye "yakudala". (Re 12: 9Isikweko sandisiwe. Inyoka ebaleka phantsi emhlabeni kufuneka ibambe kancinci, esithendeni. Nangona kunjalo, umntu obulala inyoka uya entloko. Ukutyumza imeko yobuchopho, kubulala inyoka.

Kuyaphawuleka ukuba ngelixa ubutshaba bokuqala buqala phakathi kukaSathana nomfazi — zombini imbewu ingekabikho — umlo wokwenene awukho phakathi kukaSathana nomfazi, kodwa phakathi kwakhe nembewu yomfazi okanye imbewu.

Ukutsiba phambili-akukho mfuneko yomlumkisi apha-siyazi ukuba uYesu uyinzala yomfazi kwaye ngaye, uluntu lusindisiwe. Oku kungaphezulu, kunikiwe, kodwa kwanele kweli nqanaba ukuphakamisa umbuzo: Kutheni le nto kufunwa umgca wenzala? Kutheni ungamane ulahla uYesu ebhlowu ungene kwimbali ngexesha elifanelekileyo? Kutheni usenza umgca omude weminyaka engamawaka wabantu ohlaselwa rhoqo nguSathana kunye nenzala yakhe ngaphambi kokuba ekugqibeleni abonise umhlaba noMesiya?

Ndiqinisekile zininzi izizathu. Ndiqinisekile ngokufanayo ukuba asibazi bonke okwangoku-kodwa siza kubazi. Sifanele siwakhumbule amazwi kaPawulos awayisiya kwabaseRoma xa wayethetha nje ngenkalo enye yale mbewu.

"UYE, le ubunzulu bobutyebi, nobulumko, nolwazi lukaThixo! Asikuko nokuba ayiphengululeki imigwebo yakhe, azilandeki iindlela zakhe! (I-Ro 11: 33 I-BLB)[i]

Okanye njengoko i-NWT iguqulela: "ukulandelwa kwangaphambili" kweendlela zaKhe.

Ngoku sinamawaka eminyaka yokubona izinto zembali, ukanti asinakukufumana ngokupheleleyo okwadlulayo ukuqonda ubulumko bukaThixo ngokupheleleyo.

Oko bekuthethiwe, masibe nethuba elinye lokusetyenziswa kukaThixo ngumnombo wenzala okhokelela kuKristu, nangaphaya.

(Nceda ukhumbule ukuba onke amanqaku akule ndawo zizincoko, kwaye ngenxa yoko, zivulelekile ukuba zixoxwe. Ngapha koko, siyakwamkela oku kuba ngezimvo zophando zabafundi, sinokufikelela ekuqondeni okupheleleyo kwenyaniso, eya kuthi isebenze njengesiseko esiqinileyo sokuqhubela phambili.)

IGenesis 3: 15 ithetha ngobutshaba phakathi kukaSathana nomfazi. Abafazi ababizwa ngamagama. Ukuba singafumanisa ukuba ngubani lo mfazi, sinokusiqonda ngcono isizathu somnombo wenzala okhokelela kusindiso lwethu.

Abanye, ngokukodwa iCawa yamaKatolika, bathi umfazi nguMariya, unina kaYesu.

Kwaye uPopu John Paul II wafundisa kwi UMulieris Dignitatem:

Kubalulekile ukuba [kwi AmaGalati 4: 4] UPaul Paul akambizi uMama kaKrestu ngegama lakhe, "uMariya," kodwa umbiza ngokuba "ngumfazi": Oku kungqinelana namazwi eProtoevangelium kwincwadi yeGenesis (cf. Gen. 3:15). Ngulaa “mfazi” ubekhona kumsitho we-salvific obonisa "ixesha elipheleleyo": Esi siganeko siyenzeka kuye nangaye. "[ii]

Ewe, indima kaMariya, "iMadonna", "uMama kaThixo", ibalulekile kwinkolo yamaKatolika.

ULuther, ngokuhlukana nobuKatolika wathi "umfazi" wayebhekisa kuYesu, kwaye imbewu yakhe ibhekisa kwilizwi likaThixo ebandleni.[iii]

AmaNgqina kaYehova, anenjongo yokufumana inkxaso kwingcinga yombutho, owasezulwini nowasemhlabeni, bayakholelwa kumfazi IGenesis 3: 15 limela intlangano kaYehova yasezulwini yoonyana bokomoya.

“Kuya kulandela ngokusengqiqweni nangokuvisisana neZibhalo athi“ umfazi ”ka IGenesis 3: 15 wayeza kuba “ngumfazi” wokomoya Kwaye iyahambelana nento yokuba "umtshakazi," okanye "umfazi," kaKrestu ayingomfazi uzimeleyo, kodwa udityanisiwe, wenziwe ngamalungu amaninzi omoya (Re 21: 9), “umfazi” ozala oonyana bokomoya bakaThixo, 'umfazi' kaThixo (owaprofetwa kwangaphambili kuIsaya nakuYeremiya njengoko kuchaziwe ngaphambili), wayeza kwenziwa ngabantu abaninzi bokomoya. Ingangumzimba wabantu, umbutho, owasezulwini. ”
(yi-I-2 p. 1198 Umfazi)

Iqela ngalinye lenkolo libona izinto ngegilasi ezinombala ngokobuqu bazo. Ukuba uthatha ixesha lokuphanda la mabango ahlukeneyo, uya kubona ukuba avela ngokuvakalayo ukusuka kwindawo ethile yokujonga. Nangona kunjalo, sifuna ukukhumbula umgaqo ofumaneka kwiMizekeliso:

Umntu wokuqala ukuthetha enkundleni uvakala eyiyo — de kuqale imibuzo. ” (Pr 18: 17 NLT)

Nokuba isengqiqweni kangakanani indlela yokuqiqa, kufuneka ihambelane nayo yonke ingxelo yeBhayibhile. Kuzo zombini ezi mfundiso, inye into ehambelanayo: akukho namnye unokubonisa uqhagamshelo ngqo IGenesis 3: 15. Akukho sibhalo sithi uYesu ngumfazi, okanye uMariya ngumfazi, okanye umbutho wasezulwini kaYehova ngulo mfazi. Ke endaweni yokusebenzisa i-eisegesis kunye nokunyanzelisa intsingiselo apho kungabonakali khona, endaweni yoko masivumele iZibhalo ukuba 'zibuze'. Vumela iZibhalo zizithethele.

Umxholo we IGenesis 3: 15 kubandakanya ukuwela esonweni nakwiziphumo ezibi. Isahluko sonke sineendinyana ezingama-24. Nantsi ke iphelele ngamanqaku aphezulu afanelekileyo kwingxoxo ekuyo.

“Ke kaloku inyoka yayiyeyona ilumkileyo kunawo onke amarhamncwa asendle awayewenzile uYehova uThixo. Yatsho ke ibhinqa: “Utshilo ngokwenene na uThixo ukuba nize ningadli kuyo yonke imithi yomyezo?” ² Kule nto ibhinqa yathi kwinyoka: “Kwiziqhamo zemithi yomyezo singadla. ³ Uthe ke uThixo malunga nesiqhamo somthi osemyezweni phakathi: 'Ize ningadli kuwo, ningawuchukumisi; kungenjalo uya kufa. '” ⁴ Yathi le nyoka ibhinqa: “Ngokuqinisekileyo anisayi kufa. ⁵ Kuba uThixo uyazi ukuba mhla nithe nadla kuzo aya kuvuleka amehlo enu nize nibe njengoThixo, nazi okulungileyo nokubi. ” ⁶ Ngenxa yoko, ibhinqa wabona ukuba umthi wawulungele ukudliwa kwanokuba wawuyinto enqwenelekayo emehlweni, ewe, umthi lowo wawuthandeka ukuwujonga. Ngoko wathabatha eziqhameni zawo wadla. Emva koko, wanika nendoda yakhe xa yayikunye nayo, nayo yatya. ⁷ Aqabuka amehlo abo bobabini, baziqonda ukuba bahamba ze; Athunga ke amagqabi omkhiwane, azenzela imibhinqo. ⁸ Kamva baliva ilizwi likaYehova uThixo njengoko wayehamba emyezweni malunga nomoya opholileyo wemini, yaza indoda nomfazi wayo bazimela ebusweni bukaYehova uThixo phakathi kwemithi yomyezo. ⁹ Waqhubeka ke uYehova uThixo embiza umntu esithi kuye: “Uphi na?” ¹⁰ Ekugqibeleni wathi: “Ndive ilizwi lakho egadini, kodwa ndoyika kuba ndihamba ze, ndazimela.” ¹¹ Wathi: “Uxelelwe ngubani na ukuba uhamba ze? Udlile na kuwo umthi, endakuwisela umthetho ngawo, ndathi, Uze ungadli kuwo? ¹² Le ndoda yathi: “Umfazi owandinika bona ukuba ube nam, nguye ondinikileyo kuwo umthi, ndadla ke. ¹³ UYehova uThixo wathi ibhinqa: "Yintoni le uyenzileyo?" Umfazi waphendula wathi: "Inyoka indikhohlisile, ndatya ke." ¹⁴ Wathi uYehova uThixo kwinyoka: “Uyenzile le nto, uqalekisiwe wena ngaphezu kwezinto zonke ezizitho zine, neento zonke eziphilileyo zasendle; Uya kuhamba ngesisu, udle uthuli yonke imihla yobomi bakho. ¹⁵ Ndiya kubeka ubutshaba phakathi kwakho ibhinqa naphakathi kwembewu yakho nembewu yakhe. Yona iya kukutyumza intloko, wena uya kuyityumza isithende. ” ¹⁶ Ku ibhinqa wathi: “Ndizoyandisa kakhulu intlungu yokukhulelwa kwakho; Uya kuzalela abantwana unembulaleko, inkanuko yakho ibe sendodeni yakho, ikulawule yona. ” ¹⁷ KuAdam wathi: “Ngenxa enokuba uliphulaphule ilizwi lomkakho, wadla kuwo umthi endakuwisela umthetho ngawo ndathi, 'Uze ungadli kuwo,' uqalekisiwe umhlaba ngenxa yakho. Uya kuyidla imveliso yakho ngentlungu yonke imihla yobomi bakho. ¹⁸ Uya kukuntshulela ameva nenkunzane, uze ubudle utyani basendle. ¹⁹ Uya kudla isonka sokubila kobuso bakho ude ubuyele emhlabeni, kuba uthatyathwe kuwo. Ngokuba uluthuli, uya kubuyela kwaseluthulini. ” ²⁰ Emva koko uAdam wamthiya igama elinguEva umkakhe, kuba wayeza kuba ngunina wabo bonke abaphilayo. ²¹ UYehova uThixo wabenzela iingubo ezinde zezintsu uAdam nomkakhe, zokubambesa. ²² Emva koko uYehova uThixo wathi: “Yabonani, umntu usuke waba njengomnye wethu, ukwazi okulungileyo nokubi; Ngoku ukuze angoluli isandla sakhe, athabathe nakwisiqhamo somthi wobomi, adle, aphile ngonaphakade, ” ²³ Wamgxotha ke uYehova uThixo emyezweni we-Eden, ukuba asebenze umhlaba abethatyathwe kuwo. ²⁴ Wamgxotha ke umntu, wabeka ngasempuma komyezo wase-Eden iikerubhi kunye nelangatye lekrele elijikajikayo lilinde indlela eya emthini wobomi. ” (I-X 3: 1-24)

Qaphela ukuba ngaphambi kwivesi 15, uEva kubhekiswa kuye njengo “mfazi” izihlandlo ezisixhenxe, kodwa akazange abizwe ngegama. Ngapha koko, ngokwe vesi 20, wayenegama emva ezi ziganeko zenzekile. Oku kuhlala kuxhasa uluvo lwabanye lokuba uEva wakhohliswa kwakamsinya emva kokudalwa kwakhe, nangona singenakukuchaza oku.

Emva kwendinyana 15, ibinzana elithi “umfazi” liphinda lisetyenziswe xa uYehova egweba. Angathanda kakhulu ukwandisa iintlungu zokukhulelwa kwakhe. Ngokubhekele phaya- kwaye mhlawumbi ngenxa yokungalingani okubangelwa sisono-yena neentombi zakhe babeza kujongana nolwalamano olubi phakathi kwendoda nomfazi.

Lilonke, igama elithi “umfazi” lisetyenziswe amaxesha alithoba kwesi sahluko. Akunakubakho mathandabuzo ngokomxholo wokusetyenziswa kwayo kwindinyana 1 ukuya 14 kwaye kwakhona kwindinyana 16 isebenza kuEva. Ngaba kubonakala kusengqiqweni ke ngoko ukuba uThixo angatshintsha ngendlela engaqondakaliyo ukusebenzisa kwayo kwindima ye-15 ukubhekisa 'kumfazi' othile okhoyo ukuza kuthi ga ngoku? ULuther, uPopu, iQumrhu Elilawulayo lamaNgqina kaYehova, nabanye, banqwenela ukuba sikholelwe njalo, kuba ayikho enye indlela abanokuthi ngayo batolike ingxelo yabo. Ngaba likho ilungelo kubo lokulindela oku kuthi?

Ngaba akubonakali kusengqiqweni kwaye kungaguquguquki kuthi ukuqala ukubona ukuba ukuqonda okuthe ngqo nokungqalileyo kuyaxhaswa sisiBhalo ngaphambi kokukuyekelela endaweni yoko kunokuba yinto etolikwa ebantwini?

Ubutshaba phakathi kukaSathana noMfazi

AmaNgqina kaYehova akayamkeli into yokuba uEva “ngumfazi”, kuba ubutshaba buhlala buhleli kude kube sekupheleni kweentsuku, kodwa uEfa wasweleka kumawaka eminyaka eyadlulayo. Nangona kunjalo, uya kuqaphela ukuba ngelixa uThixo ebeka ubutshaba phakathi kwenyoka nomfazi, ayingomfazi omtyumza entloko. Ngapha koko, ukutyumza isithende kunye nentloko ngumlo owenzeka hayi phakathi kukaSathana nomfazi, kodwa nguSathana nembewu yakhe.

Unoko engqondweni, makhe sihlolisise isahluko ngasinye kwindinyana 15.

Phawula ukuba nguYehova 'owabeka ubutshaba phakathi' kukaSathana nabafazi. Kude kube kukudibana noThixo, umfazi wayeziva elindelwe lithemba, ejonge phambili ekubeni 'njengoThixo'. Akukho bungqina bakuva ubutshaba kwinyoka ngelo xesha. Wayesekhohlisiwe ngokupheleleyo njengoko uPawulos esitsho.

"Kwaye noAdam akazange akhohliswe, kodwa umfazi, ekhohlisiwe, wangena kwisikreqo." (I-1Ti 2: 14 I-BLB)[iv]

Wayekholelwa kuSathana xa wamxelela ukuba uyakuba njengoThixo. Kwathi kanti, oko kuyinyaniso, kodwa hayi ngendlela awayeyiqonde ngayo. (Thelekisa iivesi 5 no-22) USathana wayesazi ukuba uyamlahlekisa, kwaye ukuze aqiniseke, wamxelela ubuxoki, ukuba ngekhe afe. Emva koko watyhola igama elihle likaThixo ngokumbiza ngokuba ulixoki kwaye ethetha ukuba wayefihlela abantwana bakhe into entle. (I-X 3: 5-6)

Umfazi akazange acinge ukuphulukana nendlu yakhe efana negadi. Khange abone kusengaphambili ukuba uyakuphela esebenza ngokulima kumhlaba onobutshaba ecaleni kwendoda elawulayo. Wayengalindelanga ukuba buhlungu obungakanani bokuzala xa buza kuziva ngathi. Wafumana zonke isohlwayo awazifumanayo uAdam kunye nezinye. Ngaphezulu, ngaphambi kokuba asweleke wayenamava okuguga: ukwaluphala, ukuphulukana nenkangeleko yakhe, ukuba buthathaka kunye nokudodobala.

UAdam akazange ayibone inyoka. UAdam akazange akhohliswe, kodwa siyazi ukuba wamgxeka uEva. (IGe 3: 12) Akunakwenzeka kuthi njengabantu abanengqiqo ukucinga ukuba njengoko iminyaka yayihamba wayejonga ngothando lukaSathana. Ngokunokwenzeka, ukuba wayenomnqweno omnye, ngekwakukubuyela umva ngexesha aze atyumze intloko yenyoka ngokwakhe. Enjani yona intiyo amele ukuba wayiva ngayo!

Ngaba kunokwenzeka ukuba wafundisa abo bantwana inzondo? Kunzima ukucinga ngenye indlela. Abanye babantwana bakhe, emva koko, babemthanda uThixo kwaye baqhubeka neemvakalelo zabo zobutshaba kwinyoka. Abanye, nangona kunjalo, beza kulandela uSathana kwiindlela zakhe. Imizekelo emibini yokuqala yokwahlukana ifumaneka kwingxelo ka-Abheli noKayin. (I-X 4: 1-16)

Ubutshaba buqhubeka

Bonke abantu bayinzala kaEva. Ke imbewu okanye imbewu kaSathana neyomfazi kufuneka ibhekise kumnombo ongenguwo owofuzo. Ngenkulungwane yokuqala, ababhali, abaFarisi neenkokeli zonqulo zamaJuda zazibanga zingabantwana baka-Abraham, kodwa yena uYesu wazibiza ukuba ziyimbewu kaSathana. (John 8: 33; John 8: 44)

Ubutshaba phakathi kwembewu kaSathana nebhinqa baqala kwangethuba xa uKayin wabulala umntakwabo uAbheli. UAbheli waba ngumfeli-nkolo wokuqala; ixhoba lokuqala lentshutshiso yenkolo. Umnombo wembewu yomfazi uqhubeke nabanye njengoEnoki, owathathwa nguThixo. (IGe 5: 24; U-11: 5) UYehova wayilondoloza imbewu yakhe ngokutshatyalaliswa kwehlabathi lamandulo ngokusindisa imiphefumlo esibhozo ethembekileyo. (I-1Pe 3: 19, 20) Kuyo yonke imbali bekukho abantu abathembekileyo, imbewu yomfazi, abaye batshutshiswa yimbewu kaSathana. Ngaba le yinxalenye yokutyunyuzwa isithende? Ngokuqinisekileyo, asinakukuthandabuza ukuba incopho yokutyunyuzwa kwesithende kukaSathana kwenzeka xa wasebenzisa imbewu yakhe, iinkokeli zonqulo zomhla kaYesu, ukubulala uNyana kaThixo othanjisiweyo. Kodwa uYesu wavuswa, ke elo nxeba lalingelokufa. Nangona kunjalo, ubutshaba phakathi kwezi mbewu zimbini abuzange buphelele apho. UYesu waxela kwangaphambili ukuba abalandeli bakhe babeza kuqhubeka betshutshiswa. (I-Mt 5: 10-12; Mt 10: 23; I-Mt 23: 33-36)

Ngaba ukutyumza isithende kuyaqhubeka nazo? Le ndinyana ingasikhokelela ekubeni sikholelwe njalo:

“Simon, Simon, uyabona, uSathana ubenibanga ukuze anihluze njengengqolowa. Ke mna ndikhungile ngawe, ukuba ukholo lwakho lungapheli. Naxa ubuyile, bomeleze abazalwana bakho. (I-Lu 22: 31-32 I-ESV)

Kungaphikiswa ukuba nathi sityunyuzwe isithende, kuba sivavanywa njengoko iNkosi yethu yavavanywayo, kodwa njengaye, siza kuvuswa ukuze umvumbo uphile. (U-4: 15; Ya 1: 2-4; UPhil 3: 10-11)

Oku akuyithinteli kwaphela indlela yokutyumka uYesu. Iklasi kuphela, kodwa ukutyunyuzwa kwakhe kwisibonda sentuthumbo kumiselwe njengomgangatho esimele ukufikelela kuwo.

"Wandula ke wathi kubo bonke:" Ukuba nabani na ufuna ukundilandela, makazincame, athabathe isibonda sakhe sentuthumbo imihla ngemihla aze aqhubeke endilandela. ²⁴ Kuba othe wathanda ukuwusindisa umphefumlo wakhe, wolahlekelwa nguwo; ke othe wawulahla umphefumlo wakhe ngenxa yam, wowusindisa lowo. ” (Lu 9: 23, 24)

Nokuba ukutyunyuzwa kwesithende kumalunga nokubulawa kweNkosi yethu, okanye kubandakanya konke ukutshutshiswa nokubulawa kwembewu ukusuka e-Abheli kude kube sekupheleni ayisiyiyo into esinokuthi siqiniseke ngayo. Nangona kunjalo, inye into ibonakala icacile: Kude kube ngoku ibe yindlela enye. Lonto iyakutshintsha. Imbewu yomfazi ilinda ngomonde ixesha likaThixo lokwenza. AyingoYesu yedwa oza kutyumza intloko yenyoka. Abo badla ilifa ubukumkani bamazulu baya kuthatha inxaxheba ngokunjalo.

“Anazi na ukuba siya kugweba iingelosi? . . . ” (1Co 6: 3)

“UThixo onika uxolo uya kumtyumza uSathana kamsinya phantsi kweenyawo zenu. Ngamana ububele obungasifanelanga beNkosi yethu uYesu bungaba nani. ” (I-Ro 16: 20)

Qaphela kwakhona ukuba ngelixa ubutshaba bukhona phakathi kwezi mbewu zimbini, ukutyumka kuphakathi kwembewu yomfazi noSathana. Imbewu yomfazi ayityumzi imbewu yenyoka entloko. Kungenxa yokuba kukho ithuba lokuhlawulelwa kwabo benza imbewu yenyoka. (Mt 23: 33; IZenzo 15: 5)

Kutyhilwa Okusesikweni KukaThixo

Okwangoku, sinokubuyela kumbuzo wethu: Kutheni uzikhathaza ngembewu? Kutheni ubandakanya umfazi kunye nembewu yakhe kule nkqubo? Kutheni ubandakanya abantu konke konke? Ngaba ngokwenene uYehova wayefuna ukuba abantu babe nenxaxheba ekusombululeni imbambano yosindiso? Kusenokubonakala ngathi ekuphela kwento eyayifuneka yayingumfazi omnye ongumntu awayeza kuthi ngaye enze uNyana wakhe okuphela kwamzeleyo engenasono. Zonke iimfuno zomthetho wakhe ziya kwaneliswa ngaloo ndlela, akunjalo? Ke kutheni udala obu butshaba buya kwiwaka leminyaka?

Kufuneka sazi ukuba umthetho kaThixo awubandi kwaye awomile. Ngumthetho wothando. (I-1Jo 4: 8Njengoko sijonga ukusebenza kobulumko obunothando, siya siyiqonda ngakumbi nangakumbi into ngoThixo omangalisayo esimnqulayo.

UYesu akazange abhekisele kuSathana njengombulali wokuqala, kodwa njengesibulala-mntu santlandlolo. KwaSirayeli, umntu obulele umntu wayengabulawa ngurhulumente, kodwa wayebulawa zizalamane zalowo ubuleweyo. Babenelungelo elisemthethweni lokwenza oko. USathana usibangele ukubandezeleka okungathethekiyo ukuqala kuEva. Ufuna ukuziswa ematyaleni, kodwa hayi indlela eyonelisa ngakumbi ukuba ubulungisa buya kuthi bube yinto engento kwabo awabaxhaphazayo. Oku kongeza intsingiselo enzulu ku KwabaseRoma 16: 20akunjalo?

Enye inkalo yembewu kukuba ibonelela ngeendlela zokutyhubela amawaka eminyaka yokungcwalisa igama likaYehova. Ngokuhlala bethembekile kuThixo wabo, abantu abaninzi ukususela ku-Abheli ukuya phambili baye babonisa uthando ngoThixo wabo kwada kwasekufeni. Bonke aba bafuna ukwamkelwa njengoonyana: ukubuyela kusapho lukaThixo. Babonisa ngokholo lwabo ukuba nabantu abangafezekanga, njengendalo kaThixo, eyenziwe ngokomfanekiso wakhe, banako ukubonakalisa ubuqaqawuli bakhe.

"Kwaye thina, abanobuso obungenakutyhilwa bonke sibonakalisa ubuqaqawuli beNkosi, siguqulwa sibe yimfanekiselo yobuqaqawuli obuqaqambileyo, obuvela eNkosini enguMoya." (2Co 3: 18)

Noko ke, kubonakala ukuba kukho esinye isizathu sokuba uYehova akhethe ukusebenzisa imbewu yomfazi kwinkqubo eya kuphumela kusindiso loluntu. Oku siza kuxubusha ngako kwinqaku lethu elilandelayo kolu ngcelele.

Ndise kwinqaku elilandelayo lolu ngcelele
