UkuGcina uLuntu, Icandelo 4: Ngoluhlobo luni lomzimba abaNtwana bakaThixo baya kuvuswa ngalo?

Oko ndaqala ukwenza ezi vidiyo, bendifumana zonke iintlobo zemibuzo malunga neBhayibhile. Ndiqaphele ukuba eminye imibuzo ibuzwa kaninzi, ngakumbi leyo inxulumene novuko lwabafileyo. AmaNgqina ashiya uMbutho afuna ukwazi ngohlobo lovuko lokuqala, olo bafundiswa ukuba alisebenzi kubo. Imibuzo emithathu ngokukodwa ebuzwa ngokuphindaphindiweyo:

1. Baza kuba nomzimba onjani abantwana bakaThixo xa bevuswa?
2. Baza kuhlala phi aba bamkelweyo?
3. Baza kwenza ntoni abo bavuko lokuqala ngelixa belinde uvuko lwesibini, uvuko lomgwebo?

Masiqale ngombuzo wokuqala. UPawulos wabuzwa umbuzo ofanayo ngamanye amaKristu aseKorinte. Uthe,

Wosuka ubani athi, Bathini na ukuvuka abafileyo? Beza benamzimba unjani na? (1 Korinte 15:35 NIV)

Phantse isiqingatha senkulungwane kamva, umbuzo wawusezingqondweni zamaKristu, kuba uYohane wabhala:

Zintanda, ngoku singabantwana bakaThixo. Akukabonakali ke into esiya kuba yiyo; Siyazi ke ukuba xa athe wabonakalaliswa, siya kufana naye; ngokuba siya kumbona njengoko anjalo. (1 Yohane 3: 2)

UYohane ucacisa gca ukuba asinokwazi ukuba siza kuba njani, ngaphandle kokuba siya kuba njengoYesu xa ebonakala. Ewe kunjalo, kuhlala kukho abanye abantu abacinga ukuba banokuzibona izinto kwaye babonakalise ulwazi olufihliweyo. AmaNgqina kaYehova ebesenza oko ukusukela ngexesha lika-CT Russell: 1925, 1975, isizukulwana esiqobanayo-olu luhlu luyaqhubeka. Banokukunika iimpendulo ezithile kuwo nawuphi na wale mibuzo mithathu, kodwa ayingabo bodwa abacinga ukuba banako. Nokuba ungumKatolika okanye uMormon okanye enye into phakathi, amathuba okuba iinkokeli zecawa yakho ziya kukuxelela ukuba bazi kakuhle ukuba unjani ngoku uYesu, emva kokuvuka kwakhe, apho abalandeli bakhe baya kuhlala khona kwaye baya kuba njani.

Kubonakala ngathi bonke aba balungiseleli, ababingeleli, kunye nabaphengululi beBhayibhile bazi ngakumbi ngalo mbandela kunompostile uYohane.

Thatha, njengomzekelo omnye, oku kukhutshwa kwiGotQuestions.org: www.gotquestions.org/bodily-reurrection- Yesu.html.

Ukanti, uninzi lwamaKorinte lwaluqonda ukuba uvuko lukaKristu ngokomzimba hayi ngokomoya. Ngapha koko, uvuko luthetha “ukuvuka kwabafileyo”; into ibuyela ebomini. Babeqonda ukuba bonke imiphefumlo yayingafi Kwaye ekufeni kwaoko wayokuhlala neNkosi (2 kwabaseKorinte 5: 8). Ke, uvuko "lokomoya" alunangqondo, njengoko umoya awufi kwaye ke akunako ukuvuswa. Ukongeza, babesazi ukuba iZibhalo, kunye noKrestu buqu, bathi umzimba wakhe uzakubuya uvuke ngomhla wesithathu. Isibhalo sikwenze kwacaca ukuba umzimba kaKristu awuyi kubona ukubola (Ndumiso 16: 10; Izenzo 2: 27), ityala elingenangqondo ukuba umzimba wakhe awuvuswanga. Okokugqibela, u-Kristu waxelela abafundi baKhe ukuba yayingumzimba waKhe owavuswayo: “Umoya awunayo inyama namathambo njengokuba nindibona ndinje” (Luka 24:39).

AbaseKorinte babeqonda ukuba “yonke imiphefumlo yayingafi”? Balderdash! Abazange baqonde nto ngoluhlobo. Umbhali wenza le nto. Ngaba ucaphula iSibhalo esinye ukungqina oku? Hayi! Eneneni, ngaba sikho iSibhalo esinye kuyo yonke iBhayibhile esithi umphefumlo awufi? Hayi! Ukuba bekukho, ababhali abanjengalo baya kuwucaphula ngomdla. Kodwa soze, kuba akukho nanye. Ngokuchasene noko, kukho izibhalo ezininzi ezibonisa ukuba umphefumlo uyafa kwaye uyafa. Nako sisiya. Misa ividiyo kancinci kwaye ujonge ngokwakho:

IGenesis 19:19, 20; INumeri 23:10; UYoshuwa 2:13, 14; 10:37; ABagwebi 5:18; 16:16, 30; 1 Kumkani 20:31, 32; INdumiso 22:29; Hezekile 18: 4, 20; 33: 6; UMateyu 2:20; 26:38; UMarko 3: 4; IZenzo 3:23; Hebhere 10:39; UYakobi 5:20; ISityhilelo 8: 9; 16: 3

Ingxaki kukuba aba baphengululi benkolo banomthwalo kwimfuno yokuxhasa imfundiso kaBathathu Emnye. UBathathu Emnye ufuna ukuba samkele ukuba uYesu nguThixo. Ewe, uThixo uSomandla akanakufa, akunjalo? Yimpoxo leyo! Ke bazokuyiqonda njani into yokuba uYesu-oko kukuthi, uThixo — wavuswa kwabafileyo? Le yingxaki ababotshelelwe ngayo. Ukuyijikeleza, babuyela kwenye imfundiso engeyiyo, umphefumlo womntu ongafiyo, kwaye bathi ngumzimba wakhe kuphela owafa. Ngelishwa, oku kudala enye into kubo, kuba ngoku banomphefumlo kaYesu uhlangana nomzimba wakhe ovusiweyo. Kutheni le nto kuyingxaki? Ewe, cinga ngako. Nanku uYesu, oko kukuthi, uThixo uSomandla, uMdali wendalo iphela, Nkosi yeengelosi, ulawula ngaphezulu kwezigidigidi zeminyele, egangqa izulu emzimbeni womntu. Ngokwam, ndiyabona njengeyona ndlela imbi yokubhukuqa uSathana. Ukusukela kwimihla yabanquli bezithixo bakaBhahali, ebezama ukuba abantu bamenze uThixo ngokwimo yabo yomntu. INgqobhoko iwufezekisile lo msebenzi ngokukholisa amawaka ezigidi ukuba anqule uThixo-Indoda kaYesu Krestu. Cinga ngento eyathethwa nguPawulos kubantu baseAthene: “Ekubeni, ke ngoko, siyinzala kaThixo, singafanelanga ukucinga ukuba Lowo ungokobuthixo unjengegolide okanye isilivere okanye ilitye, into eqingqwe ngobugcisa nokuyila komntu. (IZenzo 17: 29)

Ewe, ukuba isiqu sikaThixo ngoku sikwimo yomntu eyaziwayo, leyo yabonwa ngamakhulu abantu, oko kwathethwa nguPaul eAthene kwakububuxoki. Kuya kuba lula kakhulu kubo ukwenza umfanekiso kaThixo ube yigolide, isilivere, okanye ilitye. Babemazi kakuhle ukuba unjani.

Nangona kunjalo, abanye bazokuphikisa, “Kodwa u Yesu wathi uzakuwuphakamisa umzimba wakhe. Ewe kunjalo. Kodwa aba bantu bayazi ukuba uPawulos, ephefumlelwe, usixelela ukuba uYesu wavuswa engumoya, engengomntu, kwaye inyama negazi azinako ukubudla ilifa ubukumkani bamazulu, ngoku yintoni? Bobabini uYesu noPawulos kufuneka ukuba banyanisile bobabini bathetha inyani. Sisombulula njani okubonakala ngathi kukuphikisana? Hayi ngokuzama ukwenza ukuba isicatshulwa sibe sinye sihambelane neenkolelo zethu, kodwa ngokubeka ecaleni ukukhetha kwethu, ngokuyeka ukujonga iZibhalo ngeengcinga esele sinazo, nangokuvumela iBhayibhile ukuba izithethele.

Kuba sibuza umbuzo ofanayo nalowo wabuza abaseKorinte kuPawulos, impendulo yakhe isinika indawo entle ekufuneka siqale kuyo. Ndiyazi ukuba abantu abakholelwa kuvuko lomzimba kaYesu baya kuba nengxaki xa ndisebenzisa iNguqulelo Yehlabathi Elitsha, ke endaweni yoko ndiza kusebenzisa iBerean Standard Version kuzo zonke iikowuti ezivela kweyoku-1 kwabaseKorinte.

Eyoku-1 kwabaseKorinte 15:35, 36 ifundeka ngolu hlobo: “Wosuka ubani athi, Bathini na ukuvuka abafileyo? Beza benamzimba unjani na? Wena sidenge! Into oyihlwayelayo ayenziwa iphile ngaphandle kokuba iyafa. ”

Kungqwabalala kuPaul, awucingi? Ndiyathetha, lo mntu ubuza nje umbuzo olula. Kutheni le nto uPawulos ejongeke ngokungathi ubumbekile kwaye abize lowo ubuzayo ukuba usisidenge?

Kuya kubonakala ngathi lo ayingombuzo olula kwaphela. Kuyabonakala ukuba oku, kunye neminye imibuzo ephendulwa nguPawulosi kwincwadi yokuqala evela eKorinte, luphawu lweengcinga eziyingozi zokuba la madoda nabafazi — kodwa masithethe inyani, inokuba ubukhulu becala yayingamadoda — ayezama ukwazisa kwibandla lamaKristu. Abanye bacebisile ukuba impendulo kaPaul yayijolise ekusombululeni ingxaki yobuGnostiki, kodwa ndiyayithandabuza loo nto. Ingcinga yeGnostic ayikhange ibambe kude kube kamva, malunga nexesha uJohn abhala ngalo ileta yakhe, kwakude kudala emva kokuba uPawulos edlulile. Hayi, ndicinga ukuba le nto siyibonayo apha yinto efanayo nale siyibonayo namhlanje ngale mfundiso yomzimba womoya ozukileyo wenyama kunye nethambo abathi uYesu wabuya nazo. Ndicinga ukuba yonke ingxoxo kaPawulos iyasithethelela esi sigqibo, kuba emva kokuba eqale ngesi sijeziso sibukhali, uyaqhubeka nomfanekiso ojolise ekoyiseni umbono wovuko lomzimba.

Kwaye into oyihlwayelayo ayingomzimba uyakubakho, kodwa yimbewu nje, mhlawumbi yengqolowa okanye enye into. UThixo ke ulunika isiqu, njengoko watshoyo; athi imbewu nganye ayinike isiqu sayo. (1 Korinte 15:37, 38)

Nantsi umfanekiso we-acorn. Nanku omnye umfanekiso womthi wom-oki. Ukuba ujonga iingcambu zomthi we-oki awuyi kuyifumana i-acorn. Kufuneka ife, ngokutsho, ukuze umthi wom-oki uzalwe. Umzimba wenyama kufuneka ufe ngaphambi kokuba umzimba owunikwe nguThixo ubekho. Ukuba siyakholelwa ukuba uYesu wavuswa kwangalo mzimba wafa ngawo, ukufana kukaPawulos akunangqondo. Umzimba uYesu awubonisa abafundi bakhe wawunemingxunya ezandleni nasezinyaweni kwaye kukho umhadi kwicala apho umkhonto wawusike khona kwingxowa ye-pericardium ejikeleze intliziyo. Umzekeliso wembewu iyafa, inyamalale ngokupheleleyo, ithathelwe indawo yinto eyahluke kwaphela ayilungelanga ukuba uYesu ubuye kwangalo mzimba mnye, yile nto bayikholelwayo nabayikhuthazayo aba bantu. Ukwenza ingcaciso kaPawulos ifaneleke, kufuneka sifumane enye inkcazo ngomzimba uYesu awubonisa abafundi bakhe, leyo iyahambelana kwaye iyahambelana nazo zonke iZibhalo, hayi ezinye izizathu ezenziweyo. Kodwa masingahambi ngaphambili kwethu. UPaul uyaqhubeka nokwakha ityala lakhe:

“Yonke inyama ayifani. Kukwakho nemizimba yasezulwini nemizimba yasemhlabeni. Kodwa ubuqaqawuli bezinto zasezulwini bakwelinye inqanaba, nobukhazikhazi bemizimba yasemhlabeni bakwelinye inqanaba. Ilanga linomlinganiselo othile wobungangamsha, inyanga inenye ikwanazo iinkwenkwezi, inkwenkwezi iyahluka kwenye ngenkangeleko. ” (1 KwabaseKorinte 15: 39-41)

Le ayisiyonyaniso yesayensi. UPawulos uzama nje ukubonisa inqaku kubafundi bakhe. Into ekubonakala ukuba uzama ukufikelela kubo, kwaye ngokwandisa, kuthi, kukuba kukho umahluko phakathi kwazo zonke ezi zinto. Awafani onke. Ke, umzimba esifa ngawo awunguwo umzimba esivuswa ngawo. Oko kuchasene ngqo nento ethi abaxhasi bovuko lukaYesu lwenzeka.

Abanye bayavuma, “Umzimba esivuswe ngawo uzakujongeka ngokufanayo kodwa awufani kuba ngumzimba ozukisiweyo.” Aba baya kuthi nangona u-Yesu abuye enomzimba ofanayo, wawungafani ncam, kuba ngoku wawuzukisiwe. Ithetha ukuthini loo nto kwaye ifumaneka phi kwisibhalo? Eyona nto ayithethayo uPawulos ifumaneka kweyoku-1 kwabaseKorinte 15: 42-45:

Kuya kuba njalo ke eluvukweni lwabafileyo. uvuswa ungenakonakala. Uhlwayelwa uswele imbeko, uvuka unobuqaqawuli; Luvuswa ngozuko. Uhlwayelwa ubuthathaka, buphakanyiswa ngamandla. Kuhlwayelwa umzimba ongowemvelo, kulunge; kuvuswa umzimba ongowomoya. Kukho umzimba ongowemvelo, kukho nomzimba ongowomoya. Ngokunjalo kubhaliwe kwathiwa, Owokuqala umntu uAdam waba ngumphefumlo odla ubomi; owokugqibela uAdam waba ngumoya odlisa ubomi. ” (1 KwabaseKorinte 15: 42-45)

Uyintoni umzimba wendalo? Ngumzimba wendalo, wehlabathi lendalo. Ngumzimba wenyama; umzimba wenyama. Yintoni umzimba womoya? Ayingomzimba wenyama ngokwenyama oxhotyiswe ngumoya othile. Nokuba ukuwo umzimba wendalo — umzimba wommandla wendalo — okanye umzimba womoya — umzimba womoya. UPaul uyenza icace gca ukuba yintoni. “UAdam wokugqibela” waguqulwa waba “ngumoya odlisa ubomi.” UThixo wenza u-Adam wokuqala waba ngumntu ophilayo, kodwa uAdam wokugqibela wamenza umoya ophilisayo.

UPawulos uyaqhubeka nokwenza umahluko:

Okwasemoyeni ke akubanga kokokuqala koko kwaba kokwemvelo, kwandule ukuza okomoya. Owokuqala umntu uphume emhlabeni. Njengokuba wayenjalo umntu wasemhlabeni, banjalo nabo bangabomhlaba; kanjalo nento ayiyo osemazulwini, bakwayiyo abasemazulwini; Kwaye njengokuba sithwele ukufana nomntu wasemhlabeni, ngokunjalo siya kuthwala ukufana nomntu wasemazulwini. ” (1 KwabaseKorinte 15: 46-49)

Umntu wesibini, uYesu, wayevela ezulwini. Ngaba wayengumoya ezulwini okanye wayengumntu? Ngaba wayenomzimba womoya ezulwini okanye umzimba wenyama? Ibhayibhile isixelela ukuba [uYesu], owayekwi uhlobo lukaThixo, ayicinganga ukuba yinto enokubanjwa ilingane noThixo (KwabaseFilipi 2: 6) Ngoku, ukubukwimo kaThixo akufani nokuba nguThixo. Mna nawe sisimo somntu, okanye isimo somntu. Sithetha ngomgangatho hayi isazisi. Ifom yam yeyomntu, kodwa isazisi sam nguEric. Ke, mna nawe sabelana ngendlela enye, kodwa isazisi esahlukileyo. Asingobantu babini emntwini omnye. Ngapha koko, ndiyehla kwisihloko, ke masibuyele emgceni.

UYesu waxelela umfazi waseSamariya ukuba uThixo ungumoya. (Yohane 4:24) Akenziwanga ngenyama negazi. Ke, naye uYesu wayengumoya okwimo kaThixo. Wayenomzimba womoya. Wayekwimo kaThixo, kodwa wayinika ukuba ifumane kuThixo umzimba womntu.

Ke ngoko, xa uKrestu weza emhlabeni, wathi: Akuthandanga mbingelelo namnikelo, kodwa undilungiselele umzimba. (Hebhere 10: 5 iBerean Study Bible)

Ngaba ibingayi kuba sengqiqweni into yokuba ekuvukeni kwakhe, uThixo angambuyisela nomzimba awayenawo ngaphambili? Ewe kunjalo, ngaphandle kokuba ngoku eli qela lomoya linako ukunika ubomi. Ukuba kukho umzimba wenyama oneengalo nemilenze nentloko, kukwakho nomzimba womoya. Unjani umzimba lowo, ngubani onokuthi?

Ukubethelela isikhonkwane sokugqibela ebhokisini yabo baxhasa ukuvuswa komzimba kaYesu, uPaul uyongeza:

Ndiyanixelela ke, bazalwana, ukuba inyama negazi azinako ukubudla ilifa ubukumkani bukaThixo; nokonakala akunakukudla ilifa ukungonakali. (1 Korinte 15:50)

Ndikhumbula iminyaka emininzi eyadlulayo ndisebenzisa esi Sibhalo ukuzama ukubonisa uMormoni ukuba asiyi ezulwini nemizimba yethu eyonyulwa ukuba ilawule enye iplanethi njengothixo wayo — into abayifundisayo. Ndithe kuye, Uyabona ukuba inyama negazi azinako ukubudla ilifa ubukumkani bukaThixo; ayinakuya ezulwini. ”

Ngaphandle kokutsiba, waphendula wathi, "Ewe, kodwa inyama nethambo zinako."

Ndandiphelelwe ngamazwi! Le yayiyinto ehlekisayo kangangokuba ndandingazi ukuba ndingaphendula ndithini ngaphandle kokumthuka. Kuyabonakala ukuba, wayekholelwa ukuba xa ukhupha igazi emzimbeni, linokuya ezulwini. Igazi layigcina isemhlabeni. Ndicinga ukuba oothixo abalawula ezinye iiplanethi njengomvuzo wokunyaniseka kwabaNgcwele beMihla yokuGqibela bonke baphaphathekile kuba akukho gazi lihamba ngemithambo yabo. Ngaba babeza kufuna intliziyo? Ngaba baya kuyidinga imiphunga?

Kunzima kakhulu ukuthetha ngezi zinto ngaphandle kokuhlekisa, andithi?

Kusekho umbuzo wokuphakamisa kukaYesu umzimba wakhe.

Igama elithi “phakamisa” linokuthetha ukuvuka. Siyazi ukuba uThixo wamvusa okanye wamvusa uYesu. UYesu akazange amvuse uYesu. UThixo wamvusa uYesu. Umpostile uPetros waxelela iinkokheli zama Yuda, "makwazeke kuni nonke, nakubo bonke abantu bakwaSirayeli, ukuba ngegama likaYesu Krestu waseNazarete, enambethelelayo emnqamlezweni. athe uThixo wamvusa kwabafileyoNgulo mntu umi phambi kwakho ulungile. ” (IZenzo 4: 10 ESV)

Nje ukuba uThixo amvuse uYesu kwabafileyo, wamnika umzimba womoya kwaye noYesu waba ngumoya odlisa ubomi. Njengomoya, ngoku uYesu wayenokuphakamisa umzimba wakhe wangaphambili womntu kanye njengoko wayethembisile. Kodwa ukuphakamisa akusoloko kuthetha ukuvuka. Ukuphakamisa kunokuthetha, kulungile, nyusa.

Ngaba iingelosi ziyimimoya? Ewe, iBhayibhile itsho njalo kwiNdumiso 104: 4. Ngaba iingelosi zinokuphakamisa umzimba wenyama? Ewe kunjalo, kungenjalo, babengenakubonakala ebantwini kuba indoda ayinakubona moya.

KwiGenesis 18, sifunda ukuba amadoda amathathu eza kutyelela uAbraham. Omnye wabo ubizwa ngokuba “nguYehova.” Le ndoda ihlala noAbraham ngelixa ezinye iindlela ezimbini zisiya eSodom. Kwisahluko 19 iivesi 1 bachazwa njengeengelosi. Ke, ngaba iBhayibhile iyaxoka ngokubabiza ngamadoda kwindawo enye neengelosi kwenye? KuYohane 1:18 sixelelwa ukuba akukho mntu umbonileyo uThixo. Ukanti apha sifumana uAbraham ethetha kwaye esabelana nesidlo noYehova. Kwakhona, ngaba iBhayibhile iyaxoka?

Ngokucacileyo, ingelosi, nangona ingumoya, inokuthi ithathe inyama kwaye xa isenyameni inokubizwa ngokufanelekileyo ngokuba ngumntu hayi umoya. Isithunywa sinokubizwa ngokuba nguYehova xa esenza isithethi sikaThixo nangona eqhubeka eyingelosi kwaye engenguye uThixo uSomandla. Hayi indlela ekububudenge ngayo kuthi ukuzama ukuphikisana nayo nayiphi na le nto ngokungathi sifunda uxwebhu olusemthethweni, sikhangela umda. “Yesu, uthe awungumoya, ngenxa yoko awunakuba nguloo mntu ngoku.” Ubudenge kangakanani. Kusengqiqweni ukuthi uYesu wawuphakamisa umzimba wakhe kanye njengokuba iingelosi zazambatha inyama yomntu. Oko akuthethi ukuba uYesu unamathele kuloo mzimba. Kwangokunjalo, xa uYesu wayesithi andingumoya kwaye wabamema ukuba bazive benyama yakhe, wayengathethi ngokuxoka esithi iingelosi ezazityelele u-Abraham amadoda ziyaxoka. UYesu wayenokuwunxiba loo mzimba ngokulula njengokuba mna nawe ndanxiba isuti, kwaye wayenokususa nje ngokulula. Ngeli xesha wayesenyameni, wayeya kuba yinyama hayi umoya, ukanti indalo yakhe esisiseko, yomoya onika ubomi, iya kuhlala ingatshintshanga.

Xa wayehamba nabafundi bakhe ababini kwaye bengamazi, uMarko 16:12 uchaza isizathu sokuba athathe enye indlela. Igama elifanayo elisetyenziswe apha njengakwabaseFilipi apho lithetha ngokukhoyo okwimo kaThixo.

Emva koko uYesu wabonakala ngolunye uhlobo kwababini babo ngelixa babehamba emaphandleni. (UMarko 16:12)

Ke, uYesu akazange abambeke mzimba mnye. Unokuthatha enye indlela ukuba ukhetha njalo. Kwakutheni ukuze awuphakamise umzimba awayenawo nawo onke amanxeba ayo? Ngokucacileyo, njengoko ingxelo yokuthandabuza uThomas ibonisa, ukungqina ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo ukuba wayevukile ngokwenene. Okwangoku, abafundi babengakholelwa ukuba uYesu ubekho ngokwenyama, ngokuyinxenye kuba weza kwaye wahamba ngendlela engenakwenziwa ngumntu wenyama. Uvela ngaphakathi kwigumbi elitshixiweyo aze athi shwaka phambi kwamehlo abo. Ukuba bakholelwa ukuba le fomu bayibonayo yeyokwenyani evusiweyo, umzimba wakhe, akukho nanye kwizinto ezibhalwe nguPaul noYohane ezinokwenza ingqiqo.

Yiyo loo nto uYohane esixelela ukuba asazi ukuba siza kuba njani, kodwa nokuba yeyiphi na, siza kuba njengoYesu ngoku.

Nangona kunjalo, ukudibana kwam no “nyama nethambo” u-Mormon wandifundisa, abantu bayakholelwa kwinto abafuna ukuyikholelwa ngaphandle kwabo nabuphi na ubungqina onqwenela ukubunikezela. Ke, kumzamo wokugqibela, masamkele ingqiqo yokuba uYesu wabuya ngomzimba wakhe ozukileyo womzimba womntu okwazi ukuphila ngaphaya kwesibhakabhaka, naphina apho ikhoyo.

Kuba umzimba asweleke kuwo ngulo mzimba unawo ngoku, kwaye ekubeni sisazi ukuba umzimba ubuyile unemingxunya ezandleni zawo kunye nemingxunya yeenyawo zayo kwaye kukho umhombiso omkhulu kwicala lawo, ke kufuneka sicinge ukuba kuyaqhubeka njalo. Kuba siza kuvuswa ngokomfanekiselo kaYesu, asinakulindela into ebhetele kunaleyo wayenayo uYesu. Kuba wavuswa amanxeba akhe eselungile, siya kuba njalo nathi. Unempandla? Musa ukulindela ukubuya neenwele. Ngaba unqunyulwe ilungu lomzimba, uphulukana nomlenze mhlawumbi? Musa ukulindela ukuba nemilenze emibini. Kutheni ubenazo, ukuba umzimba kaYesu awunakulungiswa kumanxeba awo? Ngaba lo mzimba womntu uzukileyo unenkqubo yokugaya ukutya? Ngokuqinisekileyo kunjalo. Ngumzimba womntu. Ndicinga ukuba kukho izindlu zangasese ezulwini. Ndiyathetha, kutheni unenkqubo yokwetyisa ukuba awuyi kuyisebenzisa. Kukwanjalo kuwo onke amanye amalungu omzimba womntu. Cinga ngaloo nto.

Ndiyithatha nje le nto kwisiphelo sayo esisengqiqweni. Ngaba ngoku siyasibona isizathu sokuba uPawulos athi le ngcamango bubudenge waza waphendula lowo wayebuza, "Wena Sidenge!"

Isidingo sokukhusela imfundiso kaBathathu Emnye sinyanzela le ngcaciso kwaye inyanzela abo bayikhuthazayo ukuba bangene kwezinye iingcungcu ezintle zeelwimi ukuze bachaze inkcazo ecacileyo kaPawulos efumaneka kweyoku-1 kwabaseKorinte isahluko 15.

Ndiyazi ukuba ndiza kufumana izimvo ekupheleni kwale vidiyo ndizama ukuyichitha yonke le ndlela yokuqiqa kunye nobungqina ngokundityabeka ngegama elithi, "NgamaNgqina KaYehova." Bayakuthi, “Ah, awukawushiya umbutho. Usabambelele kuyo yonke le mfundiso yakudala yeJW. ” Obu bubuxoki obubizwa ngokuba "kukutyhefa iqula". Luhlobo lwe-hominem oluhlasela kakhulu njengamaNgqina alusebenzisayo xa besithi umntu ungumwexuki, kwaye sisiphumo sokungakwazi ukujongana nobungqina ngqo. Ndiyakholelwa ukuba ihlala izalwa ngaphandle kokuziva ungazithembanga malunga neenkolelo zakho. Abantu benza uhlaselo olunje ukuze bazenze baqiniseke njengaye nabani na ukuba iinkolelo zabo zisasebenza.

Sukuwela kwelo qhinga. Endaweni yoko, jonga nje ubungqina. Musa ukuyala inyaniso kuba inkolo ongavumelani nayo iyakholelwa kuyo. Andivumelani nenkoliso yeemfundiso zeCawe yamaKhatholika, kodwa ukuba ndingalahla yonke into abakholelwa kuyo - “Ityala loMbutho” - andinakukholelwa kuYesu Kristu njengoMsindisi wam, andingekhe? Ngoku, ayinakuba sisidenge loo nto!

Ke, ngaba sinokuwuphendula umbuzo, siya kuba njani? Ewe, kwaye hayi. Ukubuyela kumazwi kaJohn:

Bahlobo abathandekayo, ngoku singabantwana bakaThixo, kwaye into esiza kuba yiyo ayikatyhilwa. Siyazi ukuba xa ebonakala, siya kuba njengaye kuba siya kumbona njengoko anjalo. (1 Yohane 3: 2 Holman Christian Standard Bible)

Siyazi ukuba uYesu wakhuliswa nguThixo kwaye wanikwa umzimba womoya onika ubomi. Siyazi kwakhona ukuba kwimo yokomoya, ngayo-njengoko uPawulos wayibizayo-umzimba womoya, uYesu wayenokuthatha isimo somntu, nangaphezulu kwesinye. Uthathe nayiphi na indlela eza kuhambelana nenjongo yakhe. Xa kwakufuneka aqinisekise abafundi bakhe ukuba yayinguye ovusiweyo hayi umkhohlisi, wacinga uhlobo lomzimba wakhe oxheliweyo. Xa wayefuna ukugxila kwithemba ngaphandle kokuzichaza ukuba ungubani, uthathe enye indlela ukuze akwazi ukuthetha nabo ngaphandle kokubangxolisa. Ndiyakholelwa ukuba siyakukwazi ukwenza kwa into enye ekuvukeni kwethu.

Eminye imibuzo emibini ebesiyibuze ekuqaleni yile: Siza kuba phi kwaye siza kwenza ntoni? Ndingene nzulu ekuqikeleleni ukuba ndiphendula le mibuzo mibini kuba akukho nto ingako ibhaliweyo ngayo ebhayibhelini ngoko yithabathe ngqolowa yetyuwa, nceda. Ndiyakholelwa ukuba obu buchule uYesu wayenabo buza kunikwa kuthi ngokunjalo: ukubanakho ukuthatha imo yomntu ngenjongo yokunxibelelana noluntu ukuba lisebenze njengabalawuli kunye nababingeleli ukuze kuxolelaniswe bonke babuyele kusapho lukaThixo. Siya kuba nakho ukuthatha le fom siyifunayo ukuze sifikelele iintliziyo kwaye sitshintshe iingqondo zethu siye kwikhondo lobulungisa. Ukuba kunjalo, loo nto iphendula umbuzo wesibini: siza kuba phi?

Ayenzi ngqondo kuthi ukuba sikwezulu elikude apho singenakho ukunxibelelana nezifundo zethu. Ukumka kukaYesu, walishiya ikhoboka endaweni yalo lokujongana nokondla umhlambi kuba wayengekho. Xa ebuya, uya kuba nakho ukuthatha indima yokondla umhlambi, esenza njalo nabanye abantwana bakaThixo ababala njengabantakwabo (kunye noodade). Hebhere 12:23; AmaRoma 8: 17 iya kuphosa ukukhanya kuloo nto.

Xa iBhayibhile isebenzisa igama elithi "amazulu", ihlala ibhekisa kwiindawo ezingaphezulu koluntu: amagunya nolawulo. Ithemba lethu lichazwe kakuhle kwileta kaPawulos eya kwabaseFilipi:

Ke thina, ubumi bethu ikhona emazulwiniukusuka apho silinde ngolangazelelo umsindisi, iNkosi uYesu Krestu, oya kuwuhlaziya umzimba wethu othotyiweyo, ukuze umiliselwe umzimba wobuqaqawuli bakhe, nokusebenza kwamandla akhe, nokuzithoba izinto zonke kuye. (Filipi 3:20, 21)

Ithemba lethu lokuba yinxalenye yovuko lokuqala. Yile nto siyithandazelayo. Nokuba yeyiphi na indawo uYesu asilungiselele yona iya kuba ntle. Asiyi kuba nasikhalazo. Kodwa umnqweno wethu kukunceda abantu babuyele kwimeko yobabalo kunye noThixo, baphinde babe ngabantwana bakhe basemhlabeni. Ukwenza oko, kufuneka sikwazi ukusebenza nabo, njengoko u-Yesu wayesebenza ngomnye, ubuso ngobuso nabafundi bakhe. Indlela eya kuyenza ngayo iNkosi yethu ukuba yenzeke, njengoko besenditshilo, yinto nje eqondakalayo ngeli xesha. Kodwa njengokuba uJohn esitsho, "siya kumbona njengoko anjalo, kwaye nathi siya kufana naye." Ngoku le yinto ekufanele ukuyilwela. Yinto efanelekileyo ukuba uyifele.

Enkosi kakhulu ngokumamela. Ndingathanda ukubulela wonke umntu ngenkxaso abayinikelayo kulo msebenzi. AmaKristu akhonza kunye nabo anikela ngexesha labo elixabisekileyo lokuguqulela olu lwazi kwezinye iilwimi, ukusixhasa ekwenzeni ividiyo kunye nezinto eziprintiweyo, kunye nenkxaso-mali efuneka kakhulu. Enkosi lonke.
