Kwakungo kusihlwa ngo-Ephreli 17, 2014 ngasekupheleni komhlangano weNkonzo. UMfoweth 'uStewart, umxhumanisi wendikimba yabadala wayebize umhlangano wabadala omfishane. Abafowethu abayisishiyagalombili ababumba indikimba yendawo bangena egumbini lezingqungquthela ngokushesha nje ngemuva kokuvalwa kwemihlangano. Abafazi babo babezilungiselele ukufuduka sekwedlule isikhathi, bazi ukuthi kusho ukuthini ukuthi “amafushane” kulo mongo.
UFarouk Christen wayephakathi kwabokugcina ukungena. Ku-35, ubelilungu elincane kunawo wonke lomzimba, esesebenze iminyaka emithathu kuphela. Indodana kababa waseDenmark nonina ongumGibhithe, wabazwisa ubuhlungu obukhulu lapho ebhapathizwa njengomunye woFakazi BakaJehova eneminyaka engu-18 futhi ngokushesha ngemuva kwalokho waqala ukuphayona.
Isizathu somhlangano obungahlelwanga bekungakaze kumenyezelwe ngokusemthethweni, kepha uFarouk wayenombono omuhle kakhulu wokuthi yini ezokwenzeka. Ezinsukwini ezintathu nje ngaphambili, wayegwinye ukwesaba kwakhe futhi wadla isinkwa newayini esikhumbuzweni. Ukubukeka kokuxakeka ebusweni bukaGodric Boday kwakusengusha engqondweni yakhe. UGodric ubengomunye wabadala abakhonza izifanekiselo, futhi ebengumngani wakhe omkhulu emzimbeni. Wayekhumbula nokukhefuzela okwakucindezelwe kanye namazwi asebenyezelayo avela ezihlalweni ezingaphesheya kwephaseji nasemuva kwakhe. Njengoba ayezuze njengelifa lesikhumba sikayise esilinganayo, wayeqiniseka ukuthi ukugcwala kobuso bakhe kudalula imizwa yakhe yangaphakathi kuwo wonke umuntu. Okuxakayo ukuthi wayenza enye yezinto ezingokwemvelo noma imuphi umKristu okufanele azenze, kepha nokho wazizwa eyisigebengu.
Imicabango yakhe iphazanyiswe yigama elithi "Masivule ngomkhuleko." I-COBE yakhothamisa ikhanda layo, yasho umkhuleko omfishane yaqala ukuskena ubuso balabo ababekhona, yagwema ukubonwa ngamehlo ngqo noFarouk. Ngemuva kokuhlaba ikhefu, wabheka ngqo lo mdala osemusha. “Uyazi sonke siyakuthanda, mfowethu Christen?” Engalindi mpendulo, uqhubeke wathi, “Kube khona ukukhathazeka okuningi okuvezwe ngabantu abehlukene ngokwenzeka esikhumbuzweni. Ungathanda ukukhulumela lokho? ”
UFred wayehlala esebenzisa amagama okuqala kule mihlangano. UFarouk wayeqonda ukuthi lokhu kuphambuka kwamanje akuzange kube kahle. Wasula umphimbo wakhe, kwathi ngemuva kokuthandaza umfishane, wathi: "Ngicabanga ukuthi ubhekene neqiniso lokuthi ngidla izifanekiselo?"
“Yebo,” kusho uFred ngamafuphi, “Kungani ungasitshelanga ukuthi uzokwenza lokho? Ushiye singalungele ngokuphelele. ”
Kwakunezikhonkwane kanye nokububula kwezivumelwano ezivela kwabanye abantu abaningi etafuleni.
“Ngingaqala ngikubuze umbuzo, mfowethu uStewart?” Kubuza uFarouk.
U-Fred wanikina ikhanda, wathi uFarouk uyaqhubeka, "Ngabe ngiyaqonda ukuthi ubize lo mhlangano ngoba ucasukile angikunikanga bazalwane ukuthi ngizokwenzenjani? Ngabe yiyona kuphela inkinga lapha? ”
“Bekufanele ngabe usitshele kuqala ukuthi uzokwenza lokho!” Kungenelela uMfoweth 'uCarney, futhi ngabe uqhubeke ukube uFred akazange aphakamise isandla.
“Bafowethu ngiyaxolisa,” kusho uFarouk. “Ngiyaxolisa uma uzizwa ucasukile ngoba uzizwa ungabandakanywa kulesi sinqumo. Kepha kumele uqonde ukuthi kungokwamuntu uqobo… engifikile ngemuva kokuthandaza nokucinga okuningi ngomphefumlo. ”
Lokhu kwaxhuma uMfowethu Carney futhi. “Kepha yini eyenze wakwenza? Awucabangi ukuthi ungomunye wabagcotshiweyo, akunjalo? ”
UFarouk wayekade eyinceku ekhonzayo lapho kumiswa uHarold Carney. Ukhumbule ukumangala kwakhe lapho kumenyezelwa ukuthi uCarney onamabhomu wayezosebenza njengomdala. Wayenethemba lokuthi ukubhuka kwakhe akunasisekelo, ukuthi uHarold wayevuthiwe futhi wafika endaweni lapho angalawula khona ulimi. Isikhathi esasibonakala sinjalo, kodwa kamuva imililo yakudala yokuzibona iyasha futhi.
Evimbela noma isiphi isifiso sokubeka uHarold esikhundleni sakhe, wathi ukuthula, "Mfowethu Carney, angicabangi ukuthi lowo ngumbuzo ofanelekile?"
“Kungani kungenzeki?” Kuphendula uHarold, ngokusobala emangele ngale nselelo yentukuthelo yakhe elungile.
“Ngiyacela Mfowethu Carney,” kusho uFred Stewart, ezama ukuthola izwi lokuthula. Ephenduka ebuka uFarouk wachaza, "Abazalwane badidekile ngoba, umncane kakhulu ngokufana."
UFred Stewart wayeyindoda enkulu eyayigqoke ubuso bomusa. Kodwa-ke uFarouk wayebonile olunye uhlangothi kuye eminyakeni edlule - uFred owayezimele, ethatha izinqumo zomzimba enganaki kangako umthetho olandelwayo. Abaningi babemane besaba ukusukuma kuye. Akugcinanga nje ukuthi wayeyisizukulwane sesithathu somndeni wakhe ukuba "seqinisweni", kodwa futhi wayesekhonze njengomdala cishe iminyaka engamashumi amane futhi wayexhunyiwe kahle. Noma kunjalo, ngenkathi uFarouk emhlonipha njengomfowethu, akazange esatshiswe njengoba kwenza abanye. Ngenxa yalokho wayezivalele izimpondo noFred amahlandla angaphezu kweyodwa lapho kwacaca ukuthi imigomo yemibhalo ebihlehliswa noma inganakwa.
Impendulo yakhe, lapho ifika yalinganiswa. "Bafowethu, uma ninomuzwa wokuthi kukhona engikwenzile okungalungile ngicela ungikhombise eBhayibhelini lapho ngenze iphutha khona ngizokwazi ukuzilungisa."
UMario Gomez, umzalwane othulile owayengakhulumi kaningi emihlanganweni, wabuza ngokungazelele, “Mfowethu Christen, uzizwa ngempela ukuthi ungomunye wabagcotshiweyo?”
UFarouk uzame ukuzwakalisa ukumangala, noma ngabe lo mbuzo wawungenakugwenywa. “Mario, uyabona yini ukuthi ungibuza ini? Lokho kusho ukuthi, uqonde ukuthini? ”
UHarold wangenela, “Kulezi zinsuku abazalwane abaningi babonakala bethatha izifanekiselo; abazalwane okungafanele ngempela babe… ”
UFarouk uphakamise isandla ukuphazamisa. “Ngiyacela Harold, ngifisa ukuqeda ukukhuluma noMario.” Ephendukela kuMario, waqhubeka, “Ubuza ukuthi ngizwa ngempela yini ukuthi ngingomunye wabagcotshiwe. Sifundiswa ezincwadini ukuthi umuntu kufanele adle kuphela uma uNkulunkulu ekubiza. Uyakukholwa lokho? ”
“Impela,” kuphendula uMario, eqiniseka ngaye uqobo.
“Kulungile-ke, ngabe uNkulunkulu ungibizile noma akangishayelanga. Uma enza kanjalo, ungubani-ke wena ukuba ungahlulele? Bengilokhu ngikuhlonipha, Mario, ngakho-ke ukubuza ubuqotho bami kungizwisa ubuhlungu obukhulu. ”
Lokhu kwenza ukuthi uHarold asule umphimbo wakhe ngokunensa. Wayehleli izingalo zakhe ziwele futhi ubonakala ephenduka umthunzi obomvu obomvu. UFarouk unqume ukuthi lokhu kungaba yiphuzu elihle lokuphakamisa izimpendulo eziqondile. Ebuka uHarold ngqo wathi, "Mhlawumbe ucabanga ukuthi ngiyinkohliso." Kunikine ikhanda kancane kuHarold. “Noma mhlawumbe ucabanga ukuthi ngenza ukugabadela?” UHarold waphakamisa amashiya wakhe, wabukeka.
Kukho konke lokhu kushintshana, uFarouk ubelokhu encike phambili, izindololwane etafuleni lenkomfa, ekhuluma ngobuqotho. Manje uhlehlile, waqalaza kancane kancane etafuleni ezama ukudonsa amehlo abo bonke abantu, wabe esethi, “Bafowethu, uma ngingumuntu odukisayo ngabe ngencazelo yami anginayo indlela yokukwazi lokho. Akulona iqiniso lelo? Ngakho-ke bengizobe ngidla ngoba bengikholelwa ngempela ukuthi kufanele. Futhi uma ngenza ngokugabadela, khona-ke bengizobe ngidla ngoba bengikholelwa ngempela ukuthi kufanele. Futhi uma ngidla ngesizathu esingokomBhalo, ngibe sengidla ngoba ngikholwa ukuthi kufanele ngikwenze lokho. Njengoba ngishilo ngaphambili, lesi yisinqumo somuntu uqobo. Kuphakathi kwami ​​noNkulunkulu wami. Ngabe kufanelekile ngempela ukugcoba umuntu ngalolu daba? ”
"Akekho umuntu okudlayo," kusho uFred Stewart, ezama ukuthola ithoni eqinisekisayo.
“Ngempela? Ngoba nakanjani uzizwa ngaleyo ndlela. ”
Ngaphambi kokuba uFred asho okuningi, uHarold wethembele phambili, ubuso bakhe manje babunentukuthelo enkulu. "Ufuna sikholelwe ukuthi uJehova ukhethe wena kubo bonke abazalwane abasesifundeni, yebo labo abebephayona impilo yabo yonke futhi iminyaka yakho iphindwe kabili?"
UFarouk wabheka kuFred, naye owacela uHarold ukuthi abuyele azole. UHarold akazange aqhubeke, kodwa ayezolile wayengasho lutho. Waphinde weqa izingalo zakhe wakhipha enye indle.
UFarouk wathi ngokuncenga, “Mfowethu Carney, ungakholelwa noma yini oyifisayo. Angikuceli ukuthi ukholwe noma yini. Kodwa-ke, njengoba ulethe, kungenzeka amathuba amabili. Eyokuqala, ukuthi uJehova, njengoba usho, wakhetha mina. Ngaleso simo bekungaba yinto embi ukuthi noma ngubani asigxeke isinqumo sikaNkulunkulu. Okwesibili, uJehova akazange angikhethe futhi ngenza ngokugabadela. Kuleso simo, uJehova ungumahluleli wami. “
Njengenja enethambo, uHarold wayengeke akwazi ukuyishiya yedwa. "Manje yini?"
UFarouk waqalaza futhi ngaphambi kokuphendula. “Lokhu engizokusho, ngikusho ngayo yonke inhlonipho efanele kuwe nakubo bonke abazalwane abalapha. Lesi kwakuyisinqumo somuntu siqu. Empeleni akulona ibhizinisi lomunye umuntu. Ngikubheka njengento yangasese futhi angifisi ukuphinde ngikhulume ngayo. ”
Nakulokhu futhi, uMario owayevame ukuthula wakhuluma. "Mfowethu Christen, ngifisa ukwazi kakhulu ukuthi ucabangani ngesikhundla seNdikimba Ebusayo ngokuhlanganyela." Kube ngathi useqeqeshiwe, Wacabanga uFarouk.
"Mario, awuboni ukuthi unamandla kangakanani lowo mbuzo?"
“Angicabangi ukuthi yikho konke lokhu, futhi ngicabanga ukuthi sonke siyayithola impendulo.” Iphimbo lakhe lalinomusa kodwa liqinile.
“Engikushoyo ukuthi akulungile ukuthi ubuze umbuzo onjalo kumdala esikanye naye.”
UFred Stewart wabe esethi, "Ngicabanga ukuthi kungumbuzo ofanele, uFarouk."
“Bafowethu, uJehova wayekhuluma no-Adamu no-Eva nsuku zonke futhi akazange akungabaze ukwethembeka kwabo nokulalela kwabo. Kwakungaleso sikhathi lapho benikeza khona izimpawu ezibonakalayo zokungalungi ngokumfihlela lapho ebabuza khona ukuthi ngabe basidlile isithelo esenqatshelwe. Silingisa uNkulunkulu wethu uJehova ngokungabuzi imibuzo ephenya ngaphandle kokuthi kunesizathu sokwenza kanjalo. Ngikunikeze abafowethu isizathu nje sokungabaza ukuthembeka kwami? ”
"Uyenqaba ukuphendula."
“Bafowethu, beningazi cishe iminyaka eyi-9. Kulesi sonke leso sikhathi, ngake ngakunikeza isizathu sokukhathazeka? Ngabe sengike ngakhombisa ukungathembeki kuJehova, noma kuJesu, noma kwezinye izimfundiso eziseBhayibhelini? Uyangazi. Manje kungani ungibuza le mibuzo? ”UFarouk wabuza ngokokugcina.
"Kungani uvusa? Kungani ungaphenduli? ”I-COBE yatsho ngokugcizelela.
“Kalula nje, ngoba ngibona sengathi ukuphendula kungakunikeza ilungelo lokubuza umbuzo ongalungile. Bafowethu, ngikholelwa ngokuqinile ukuthi kwethula umoya ongafuneki ndawo emihlanganweni yethu. ”
USam Waters, umfowethu osekhulile onomusa we73 ukhulume manje. “Mfowethu Christen, sikubuza le mibuzo kuphela ngoba siyakuthanda futhi siyakukhathalela. Sifuna okungcono kakhulu kuwe. "
UFarouk wamoyizela kahle amadoda amadala futhi waphendula, “Sam, ngiyakuhlonipha kakhulu. Uyakwazi lokho. Kepha kule nkulumo yakho ehlose okuhle, uyiphutha. IBhayibheli lithi “uthando aluziphathi ngokungafanele. Alucasuki. ” Waphonsa amehlo kuHarold Carney ngenkathi esho lokhu, wabuyela kuSam. “Aluthokozi ngokungalungi, kodwa lujabulela iqiniso. Lubekezelela zonke izinto, lukholwa yizinto zonke, luthemba zonke izinto… ”Nginicela nonke manje ukuthi nibonise uthando kimi“ ngokukholwa nangethemba zonke izinto ”. Ungangabazi ukwethembeka kwami ​​uma ngingakunikezi isizathu sokwenza njalo. ”
Manje wabheka bonke abazalwane ababekhona wathi, “Bafowethu, uma ningithanda ngokweqiniso, nizongamukela ngenxa yalokho engiyikho. Uma ungithanda ngokweqiniso, uzosihlonipha isinqumo sami njengesiqu sakho uqobo futhi ukushiye lapho. Ngiyacela ungangicasuli ngalokhu engizokusho. Ngeke ngidingide lolu daba ngaphakathi emzimbeni. Kungokomuntu siqu. Ngicela ukukuhlonipha lokho. ”
Kwakukhona ukububula okunzima kusuka ekugcineni kwetafula. UFred Stewart uthe, “Ngabe sengicabanga ukuthi uphetha lo mhlangano. Mfowethu Waters ungathanda ukuvala ngomkhuleko? ”UHarold Carney ubukeka sengathi kukhona azokusho okuthile, kepha uFred wamnikina ikhanda kancane, wavele wajabha.
NgoMgqibelo olandelayo, uFarouk nomngane wakhe, uGodric Boday, babehlanganyele enkonzweni yasensimini. Emini bathatha ikhefu lekofi endaweni yokudlela encane ababeyijabulela bobabili. Ehleli lapho ngamakhofi namakhekhe, uFarouk uthe, "Ngamangala kakhulu lapho abadala behlangene ngoLwesine ukuthi awushongo lutho."
U-Godric ubukeka emfishane. Kwakusobala ukuthi ubekade ecabanga ngalokhu. “Ngiyaxolisa kakhulu ngalokho. Ngangivele ngingazi ukuthi ngithini. Ngiqonde ukuthi ... ngiqonde ukuthi ... bengingazi ukuthi ngithini. ”
"Umangele?"
“Umangele? Lokho kuzobe kungamampunge impela. ”
“Uxolo Godric. Ungumngane omuhle, kepha ngizwe kungcono ukuthi ngidlale amakhadi ami eduze kwesifuba kulokhu. Bengifuna ukukutshela kusenesikhathi, kepha ngifinyelele esiphethweni esinzima sokuthi kungakuhle ukungakwenzi. ”
UGodric waqonda ekhofi lakhe abelibambe ezandleni zakhe, wathi, "Uyazi uma ngikubuza umbuzo? Ngiqonde ukuthi ngeke uphendule uma ungakhululekile. ”
UFarouk wamamatheka, "Buza."
"Wazi kanjani ukuthi awuseyena omunye wezinye izimvu?"
UFarouk uthathe isikhathi eside, ejulile, wakhipha kancane, wabe esethi, “Ngikwazi kahle, futhi ngiyakwethemba njengomunye wabangane bami abaseduze. Noma kunjalo, kufanele ngibuze lokhu: Ngabe kukhona engingakucabanga noma yini futhi konke esikhuluma ngakho manje okuhlala phakathi kwethu? ”
UGodric wabukeka emangele kancane, kodwa waphendula ngaphandle kokungabaza, “Impela. Akufanele ungabaze. ”
UFarouk wehla wangena esikhwameni sakhe senkonzo, wakhipha ibhayibheli lakhe, walibeka etafuleni walibeka kuGodric. “Bheka John 10: 16 ungitshele ukuthi lapho kuthiwa ezinye izimvu zinethemba lasemhlabeni. ”
U-Godric wafunda buthule, wabheka phezulu wathi, "Akunjalo."
UFarouk wakhomba ibhayibheli ngomunwe wathi, “Sifunde sonke lesi sahluko ungitshele ukuthi sisho kuphi ngesigaba sabgcotshiweyo kanye nesigaba sasemhlabeni. Thatha isikhathi sakho."
Ngemuva kwemizuzu embalwa, uGodric wabheka inkulumo edidekile wathi, "Mhlawumbe kuyayisho kwenye ingxenye yeBhayibheli."
UFarouk wanikina ikhanda. “Ngithembe kulokhu. Leyo kuphela indawo eBhayibhelini lapho kukhulunywa khona khona igama elithi 'ezinye izimvu'. ”
Ukungakholelwa kwakhe kukhombisa, uGodric wabuza, "Kuthiwani kusambulo lapho kukhulunywa khona ngesixuku esikhulu sezinye izimvu?"
“Ikhuluma 'ngesixuku esikhulu', kodwa hhayi 'isixuku esikhulu sezinye izimvu'. Leyo nkulumo ayiveli ndawo eBhayibhelini. Uzoyithola kumamagazini, kunjalo; yonke indawo, kodwa hhayi ibhayibheli. Lapho ufika ekhaya, cinga ku-Library ye-Watchtower. Uzothola ukuthi ayikho lapho. ”
“Angiyitholi,” kusho uGodric.
“Bheka ivesi 19. Ukhuluma nobani uJesu? ”
UGodric wabheka emuva kafushane eBhayibhelini. "AmaJuda."
“Ngakwesokudla. Ngakho lapho uJesu ethi, 'Nginezinye izimvu, ezingezona ezalesi sibaya', amaJuda ayezoqonda ukuthi wayekhuluma ngobani ngenkathi ekhuluma 'ngalo mhlambi'? ”
Besilokhu sitshelwa ukuthi ubekhuluma ngabagcotshiweyo. ”Kube ngokokuqala ngqa ukuthi uGideric abambe izincomo.
“Yilokho esikufundisiwe, kuyiqiniso impela. Kodwa-ke, lapho uJesu esho la mazwi kwakungekho ogcotshwe njengamanje. Kuze kube yileso sikhathi, wayengashongo lutho ngesigaba sabgcotshwe, ngisho nakubafundi bakhe abaseduze. Futhi amaJuda ayekhuluma nabo babengeke bakuqonde lokho. UJesu wathunyelwa ezimvini ezilahlekile zakwa-Israyeli. Empeleni iBhayibheli lisebenzisa lelo binzana. Kamuva, kuzobe kunezelwa ezinye izimvu ezingezona ezesibaya sakwa-Israyeli.
Ngokuqonda kokusa uGodric washesha wathi, “Usho abeZizwe? Kodwa… ”Wabe esehamba ngemuva, kucaca ukuthi ubanjwe imicabango emibili ephikisanayo.
“Kunjalo! Akuwenzi yini umqondo owengeziwe ukuthi wayekhuluma ngezinye izimvu ngokuba abeZizwe ababezozenezelelwa esibayeni esikhona, amaJuda, futhi babe umhlambi owodwa ngaphansi koMalusi munye nethemba elilodwa? Uma ubukwa ngale ndlela, kukhona ukuvumelana okuphelele neminye imibhalo-ikakhulukazi indlela izinto ezenzeka ngayo njengoba kulotshwe kuzEnzo. Uma ubhekwa ngakolunye uhlangothi, lo mbhalo awunawo umongo futhi uhlukile. ”
"Awusikisele ukuthi sonke siye ezulwini, akunjalo?"
UFarouk wabona ukuthi umngane wakhe wayengekho ukulungele ukwamukela ukugxuma okunjalo. Waphakamisa isandla sakhe wathi, “Angisho lutho lolo hlobo. Ukuthi siya ezulwini noma siyohlala emhlabeni akusikhona ukuthi sinqume. Sixhumanise ukuthatha izifanekiselo nalokho kwazenzekela. Kodwa-ke, ukuthatha izifanekiselo akuqinisekisi lutho. Lapha, bheka I-1 Korion 11: 25, 26. "
UGodric wafunda amavesi. Lapho eqeda, uFarouk wathi, “Qaphela, uthi 'qhubeka wenze lokhu ungikhumbule'; khona-ke uyanezela, 'noma nini lapho nidla lesi sinkwa futhi niphuza le ndebe, nimemezela ukufa kweNkosi, ize ifike.' Ngakho-ke kubonakala sengathi inhloso ukumemezela ukufa kweNkosi. Futhi kubonakala sengathi akuyona into ongayikhetha. Uma uJesu Kristu esitshela ukuthi siqhubeke nokwenza okuthile, singobani-ke ukuthi, 'Uxolo Nkosi, kepha umyalo wakho awusebenzi kimi. Ngikhululekile. Akufanele ngilalele. '? ”
UGodric wayenikine ikhanda, elwa nomqondo. "Kepha lokho akusebenzi kwabagcotshiweyo kuphela?"
UFarouk uphendule wathi, “Sitshelwa ukuthi kuneqembu elincane labagcotshwa lelo elisebenza kubo. Siphinde sitshelwe ukuthi isigaba esikhulu kakhulu sabangagcotshwanga akufanele silalele umyalo. Kodwa-ke, wake wazama ukufakazela lokho kunoma ngubani okuvela eBhayibhelini? Ngiqonde ukuthi, ngibheke kakhulu eBhayibhelini futhi ngazama ukuthola ubufakazi bokuthi kukhona lonke iqembu lamaKristu, izigidi ezigidini, ezikhululiwe ngokuphelele ekulaleleni lo myalo. Ngizamile, futhi angikwazi ukuyithola ndawo. ”
U-Godric uhlale emuva futhi wakhulisa lokhu isikhashana, emunca ukhokho wakhe. Wayejulile emcabangweni, futhi wehlulekile ukuqaphela imvuthuluka eningi iwela phezu kwehembe lakhe nothango. Uthe eqeda wabheka emuva kumngani wakhe futhi wayesezokhuluma ngenkathi uFarouk ekhomba ihembe lakhe ngaphambili. U-Godric wabheka phansi enamahloni kancane lapho ebona ukungcola.
Exubha imvuthu, kubonakala sengathi uzinza emcabangweni omusha. “Kuthiwani nge-144,000? Ngeke sonke siye ezulwini, ”kusho yena ngokuzethemba.
“Empeleni ayishintshi lutho. Ngikhuluma ngokulalela umyalo wokudla, hhayi ukuthenga ithikithi lokuya ezulwini, uma uthola ukukhukhuleka kwami? Ngaphandle kwalokho, sazi kanjani ukuthi isibalo singokoqobo? Uma samukela ukuthi kungokoqobo, kufanele samukele ukuthi amaqembu ayi-12 ayi-12,000 nawo angokoqobo. Lokho kusho ukuthi izizwe ezithathwa kubo abangu-12,000 nazo zingokoqobo. Futhi nokho, sasingekho isizwe sakwaJosefa. Iphuzu lami ukuthi uma uJesu wayefuna ukukhipha iqembu elikhulu lamaKristu ekudleni wayezocacisa futhi abeke lowo mthetho. Ukungalaleli uJesu Krestu kungaba ukukhetha ukufa nokuphila. Ubengeke asibeke ethubeni lokwenza ukukhetha okunjalo ngokuya ngokuhumusha kwabantu abangaphelele maqondana nemibono engokomfanekiso. Lokho nje akuhambelani nokunakekelwa esazi ukuthi unakho ngathi. Awuvumi yini? ”
UGodric wacabanga kanzima imizuzwana embalwa. Waphuza ikhofi yakhe ende, wafinyelela ku-indie enganakile nge-khekhe lakhe, wabe esema kancane lapho esebona ukuthi useyiqedile. Wasusa isandla sakhe. "Linda umzuzu nje. Ngabe amaRoma awasho yini ukuthi umoya unikeza ubufakazi bokuthi kukhona umuntu ogcotshiweyo? ”
UFarouk wafinyelela ngaphesheya kwetafula leli Bhayibheli walivula. “Ubhekisele ku- Roma 8: 16. ”Ngemuva kokuthola leli vesi, walungulela ibhayibheli nxazonke ukuze uGrricric alibone. Ebhekisa evesini uthe, “Qaphela ukuthi leli vesi lithi umoya ufakaza ukuthi siyikho Bantwana bakaNkulunkulu, hhayi ukuthi sigcotshwe. Ngabe uzibona njengomunye wabantwana bakaNkulunkulu, uGodric? ”
"Yebo, kodwa hhayi ngomqondo ofanayo nogcotshiweyo."
Wavuma ngekhanda ukwamukela lokhu, wabe eseqhubeka, "Ngabe leli vesi lisho okuthile ngohlobo oluthile lwengane?"
"Usho ukuthini ngempela?"
“Hhayi-ke, mhlawumbe ngokomongo besingalindela ukuthi isahluko sonke sikhanyise ngokuqonda kokuthi kunezinhlobo ezimbili zamadodana namathemba amabili. Sinesikhathi esithile. Kungani ungazifuneli ngokwakho? ” UFarouk ubuze njengoba afinyelela ikhekhe lakhe elingakatholwa.
UGodric wabuyela eBhayibhelini futhi waqala ukufunda. Uthe eqeda wabheka phezulu wangasho lutho. UFarouk wakuthatha lokho njengento yakhe. “Ngakho-ke, ngokukaPawulu, enye yenyama enombono wokufa noma wokomoya ngombono wokuphila okuphakade. Ivesi 14 lithi 'bonke abaholwa umoya kaNkulunkulu bangamadodana kaNkulunkulu.' Usuvele wavuma ukukholwa ukuthi ungomunye wamadodana kaNkulunkulu. Lokho kungenxa yokuthi uMoya oNgcwele okuwe ukubangela ukuba ukukholelwe lokho. Ngaphandle kwalokho, ngokusho kwencwadi yabaseRoma isahluko 8, konke obekuzodingeka ubheke phambili ekufeni. ”
UGodric akasho lutho, ngakho uFarouk uyaqhubeka. ”Ake ngikubuze lokhu. Ngabe uJesu ungumlamuli wakho? ”
"Kunjalo."
"Ngakho-ke, uyakholelwa ekutheni ungomunye wamadodana kaNkulunkulu futhi uyakholelwa ekutheni uJesu ungumlamuli wakho."
"Hawu huh."
“Uyabona yini ukuthi lokhu okukholelwayo kuphambene nalokho esikufundiswa ezincwadini?” Kubuza uFarouk.
Akukhona okokuqala kulolu suku, uGodric wabukeka ethukile ngokweqiniso, "Ukhuluma ngani?"
“Ngikhathazeke ngokuphelele, Godric. Sifundiswa ukuthi abagcotshiweyo benoJesu njengoMlamuli wabo, kepha ukuthi akayena umlamuleli wezinye izimvu-ngokususelwa emfundisweni yethu yokuthi ezinye izimvu ziyisigaba sobuKristu esinethemba lasemhlabeni. Ngaphezu kwalokho, sifundiswa ukuthi ezinye izimvu akuzona amadodana kaNkulunkulu. Kufanele ukhumbule ukuthi sisanda ku INqabayokulinda Ngayo kanye le ndaba, futhi kusakhona enye esiza njengesifundo sokugcina kumagazini kaFebhuwari? Siyaqhubeka sifundisa ukuthi ezinye izimvu zingabangane bakaNkulunkulu kuphela. ”
“Ngabe kuzoba khona okunye, bahlonishwa?” Abazange bayiqaphele indlela yabo yokulinda.
“Ake ngikuthole lokhu,” kusho uFarouk, ekhipha imali engu- $ 10 bese eyihambisa kumlindi. "Gcina ushintshi."
Ngemuva kokuhamba kwakhe, uqhubeke wathi, “Ngiyazi ukuthi kuningi okumele ngicabange ngakho. Yenza ucwaningo. Thola ukuthi lithini ngempela iBhayibheli. Bona ukuthi ungakuthola yini emiBhalweni YamaKristu YesiGreki ekhuluma ngesigaba sonke sobuKrestu esinethemba lasemhlabeni futhi elingayi ezulwini, futhi okubaluleke kunakho konke, sikhululekile ekulaleleni umyalo kaJesu wokudla izifanekiselo. ”
Abangani laba bobabili bame, baqoqa okungokwabo bangena emnyango. Lapho bebuyela emotweni, uFarouk wabeka isandla sakhe ehlombe lomngane wakhe wathi, “Isizathu sokuthi ngithathe izifanekiselo — isizathu engangingasiniki emhlanganweni wabadala — ukuthi ngakholelwa ukuthi kufanele ngilalele umyalo UJesu Kristu. Yilokho kuphela. Ithambile futhi ilula. Akukho sambulo esingaqondakali esivela kuNkulunkulu ngobusuku engabizelwa ezulwini. Ngisanda kufika ngibone eBhayibhelini ukuthi umyalo unikezwe wonke amaKristu; eyodwa engasishiyi inketho ngaphandle kokulalela. Cabanga ngakho futhi uthandaze ngakho. Uma ufuna ukukhuluma okuningi, uyazi ukuthi ungahlala ungikhulumela. Kepha futhi, ungabelani ngalokhu ngomunye umuntu ngoba kungaphatha kabi kakhulu abafowethu nodadewethu abaningi. Futhi bekungeke kusilungele sonke. ”
UGodric wanikina isivumelwano sakhe. "Yebo, ngiyabona ukuthi kungani kungaba njalo."
Inhliziyo kaFarouk yayisiphithiphithi. Ingabe wayesanda kulahlekelwa umngane noma athole onamandla kunawo? Isikhathi kuphela esizotshela. Ngokusobala, kuzothatha isikhathi uGodric ukucubungula yonke le mininingwane emisha.
Njengoba ayekwenzile ezikhathini eziningi ngaphambili, uFarouk wacabanga, Kuyamangaza ukuthi konke lokhu kufanele kwenzeke ebandleni lobuKristu loFakazi BakaJehova.
