Kusigaba 13 sanamuhla INqabayokulinda Ukutadisha, sitshelwa ukuthi obunye bobufakazi bokuphefumulelwa kweBhayibheli ukungagunci kwalo ngokungavamile. (w12 6/15 k. 28) Lokhu kusikhumbuza isenzakalo esihilela umphostoli uPawulu lapho ekhuza obala umphostoli uPetru. (Gal. 2:11) Akagcinanga nje ngokusola uPetru phambi kwabo bonke ababebukele, kodwa wabe esechaza imininingwane ngencwadi eyayizodluliselwa emphakathini wonke wamaKristu. Ngokusobala kwakungekho ukukhathazeka ngakuye ukuthi lokhu kulandiswa kungabuthinta kanjani ubuzalwane, ngoba kwakuhilela elinye lamalungu aholayo endikimba ebusayo ngaleso sikhathi. Iqiniso lokuthi lifakiwe emiBhalweni ephefumulelwe ngokwaphezulu lingubufakazi obuningi bokuthi okuhle okutholwe esambulweni esingagunci kunalokho kwakudlula kude noma yikuphi okubi okwakungaba khona.
Abantu bayakwazisa ukugqama nokuthembeka. Sizimisele kakhulu ukuthethelela labo abavuma ngokweqiniso ukusilela noma ukweqa umthetho. Ukuziqhenya nokwesaba yikhona okusivimba ukuthi singavuleki ngamaphutha akhe.
Muva nje, umzalwane wendawo uhlinzwe kanzima emathunjini. Ukuhlinzwa kwaba yimpumelelo, kepha wathola izifo ezintathu ezahlukahlukene ngemuva kokuhlinzwa ezacishe zambulala. Ngesikhathi kuphenywa lesi sibhedlela sinqume ukuthi uphuthunyiswe egumbini lokuhlinza elingazange likhuculwe kahle kulandela ukuhlinzwa. Odokotela nomphathi wesibhedlela beza eceleni kombhede wakhe bachaza ngokusobala ngokwenzekile nokwehluleka kwabo. Kungithusile ukuzwa ukuthi bazovuma ngokukhululekile ngale ndlela ngoba kungabachaya enkantolo ebiza izindleko. Ubhuti wangichazela ukuthi manje sekuwumgomo wesibhedlela manje. Bathole ukuthi ukuvuma obala amaphutha kuholela ezinkantolo ezimbalwa kakhulu kunenqubomgomo edlule yokufihla nokuphika konke okungalungile. Ukwethembeka nokuxolisa empeleni kunenzuzo yezezimali. Kuvela ukuthi mancane amathuba okuthi abantu bavule icala lapho odokotela bevuma ngokukhululekile ukuthi babenephutha.
Njengoba iBhayibheli linconywa ngokungagunci kwalo, futhi njengoba nezwe livuma ngokusobala ukuthi kunenzuzo yokwethembeka okungagunci lapho amaphutha enziwe, asikwazi ukuzibuza ukuthi kungani labo abaholayo enhlanganweni kaJehova behluleka ukubeka isibonelo kulokhu. Asikhulumi ngabantu ngabanye. Kuwo wonke amazinga enhlangano, kukhona amadoda amahle futhi athembekile futhi athobekile avuma ngokukhululekile lapho enze iphutha. Kuphephile ukusho ukuthi le mfanelo iyisici esivelele sabantu bakaJehova namuhla; esihlukanisa kalula kuzo zonke ezinye izinkolo. Kuyiqiniso ukuthi kukhona namalungu ebandla, imvamisa abaziwayo, abangazimisele kangako ukuvuma lapho bebenze iphutha. Umuntu onjalo uyasazisa isikhundla asiphethe kakhulu kangangokuthi bazohamba bebanga elide ukufihla noma ukuphambukisa noma yikuphi ukona. Lokho-ke, kulindelekile, uma kubhekwa ukuthi inhlangano yakhiwe ngabantu abangaphelele hhayi bonke abazothola insindiso. Lokhu akuyona indaba yombono, kodwa yerekhodi lesiprofetho.
Cha, lokhu esikubhekise kuye ukungabi nesibindi. Lokhu bekuyisici sabantu bakaJehova emashumini amaningi eminyaka manje. Ake sibonise isibonelo esisodwa esibi salokhu.
Encwadini Ukubuyisana NguJF Rutherford oshicilelwe e1928 ukufundisa okulandelayo kuthuthukisiwe ekhasini 14:
“Umlaza wezinkanyezi eziyisikhombisa ezakha iPleiades ubonakala uyisikhungo somqhele lapho amasistimu aziwayo amaplanethi ezungeza nakhona njengoba amaplanethi elanga alalela ilanga futhi ehamba emizileni yawo. Kuphakanyisiwe, futhi ngesisindo esikhulu, ukuthi enye yezinkanyezi zalelo qembu yindawo yokuhlala kaJehova nendawo yezulu eliphakeme kakhulu; ukuthi yindawo lapho umlobi ophefumulelwe abhekise khona lapho ethi: “Yizwa wena uhlala endaweni yakho yokuhlala, ezulwini” (2 IziKr. 6:21); nokuthi iyindawo uJobe ayekhuluma ngayo lapho ephefumulelwa wabhala: “Ungakwazi yini ukubopha amathonya amnandi ePleiades, noma uthukulule izintambo ze-Orion?” - Jobe 38:31 ”
Ngaphandle kokungavumelani neze nesayensi, le mfundiso ayisekelwe emiBhalweni. Ukuqagela okungasendle, futhi kusobala ukuthi umbono womlobi. Ngokombono wethu wanamuhla, kuyihlazo ukuthi sike sayikholelwa into enjalo; kodwa kukhona.
Lokhu kufundiswa kuhoxisiwe ku-1952.
w53 11 / 15 p. Imibuzo ye-703 Evela Kubafundi
? Ini is kusho by 'ukubopha the amnandi amathonya of the I-Pleiades ' or 'ukukhulula the amaqembu of I-Orion ' or 'ukuletha phuma UMazaroti in wakhe izinkathi ' or 'ukuqondisa I-Arcturus nge wakhe madodana, ' as okushiwo at UJobe 38: 31, I-32? —W. S., New York.
Abanye bathi izimfanelo ezivelele kulawa maqembu ezinkanyezi noma amaqembu ezinkanyezi futhi ngenxa yalokho zinikeza ukutolika okuyimfihlo kukaJobe 38: 31, 32 okumangaza ababezwayo. Imibono yabo ayihlali izwakala njalo ngokombono wesayensi yezinkanyezi, futhi uma ibukwa ngokomBhalo ayinasisekelo ngokuphelele.
Ezinye izimfanelo…? Ukuhumusha okuyimfihlo… ?! UJ. F. Rutherford, umongameli we-Watchtower Bible and Tract society uzoba "abanye". Futhi uma lokhu bekungukuthi "ukuhumusha kwakhe kwangasese", kungani bekhululwe emphakathini encwadini enamalungelo obunikazi, eyashicilelwa futhi yasatshalaliswa ngumphakathi wethu.
Lokhu, yize mhlawumbe kuyisibonelo sethu esibi kunazo zonke sokusolwa ngokushintshwa kwemfundiso elahliwe, akuyona into ehlukile. Sinomlando omude wokusebenzisa imishwana efana nokuthi, 'abanye baye bacabanga', 'bekukholelwa ukuthi', 'kuphakanyisiwe', lapho ngaso sonke isikhathi bekuyithi ebesicabanga, sikholwe futhi siphakamisa. Asisazi ukuthi ngubani obhala i-athikili ethile, kepha siyazi ukuthi iNdikimba Ebusayo ithatha umthwalo wakho konke okushicilelwe.
Sisanda kushicilela ukuqonda okusha kwezinyawo zobumba nezensimbi zephupho likaNebukadinesari. Ngalesi sikhathi asizange sisuse icala. Ngalesi sikhathi asizange sisho lutho ngezimfundiso zethu zangaphambilini — kube khona okungenani ezintathu, ezinamafulethi amabili. I-newbie efunda i-athikili izofika esiphethweni sokuthi besingakaze siyiqonde incazelo yalesi sici esingokwesiprofetho ngaphambili.
Ngabe ukuvuma okulula, okuqonde ngqo kungalimaza kakhulu ukholo lwesikhundla nefayela? Uma kunjalo, kungani kunezibonelo eziningi kangaka zalokho nje emiBhalweni? Okungenzeka kakhulu ukuthi ukuzwa ukuxolisa okuqotho ngokusidukisa ngenxa yezinhloso ezinhle, kodwa ukuqagela kwabantu, kungasiza kakhulu ekubuyiseleni ukholo olulahlekile kulabo abaholayo. Ngemuva kwakho konke, besizolandela isibonelo sokwethembeka, ukuthobeka nokungagunci esabekwa izinceku ezithembekile zasendulo.
Noma ingabe siphakamisa ukuthi sinendlela engcono kunale ebekwe eZwini likaNkulunkulu eliphefumulelwe?
