Emuva e1984, isisebenzi saseNdlunkulu eBrooklyn, uKarl F. Klein wabhala:
“Kusukela ngiqale ngokungenisa 'ubisi lwegama,' nansi amaqiniso ambalwa angokomoya angokomoya abantu bakaJehova asewaqondile: umehluko phakathi kwenhlangano kaNkulunkulu nenhlangano kaSathane; ukuthi ukulwelwa kukaJehova kubaluleke kakhulu kunokusindiswa kwezidalwa… ”(w84 10 / 1 p. 28)
In the isihloko sokuqala kulolu chungechunge, sihlole imfundiso ye-JW yokuthi ingqikithi yeBhayibheli “ukulwelwa kobukhosi bukaJehova” futhi sabona ukuthi ayinasisekelo esingokomBhalo.
In the isihloko sesibili, sathola isizathu esiyinhloko esenza iNhlangano iqhubeke nokugcizelela le mfundiso engamanga. Ukugxila kulokho okubizwa ngokuthi "impikiswano yobukhosi bendawo yonke" kuvumele ubuholi be-JW ukuzithathela ingubo yegunya laphezulu. Kancane kancane, ngokunganakile, oFakazi BakaJehova bayeka ukulandela uKristu base belandela iNdikimba Ebusayo. NjengabaFarisi bosuku lukaJesu, imithetho yeNdikimba Ebusayo isifikile kuzo zonke izici zempilo yabalandeli babo, ithonya indlela abathembekile abacabanga nabaziphatha ngayo ngokubeka imingcele eyeqa ngaphezu kwanoma yini ebhalwe eZwini likaNkulunkulu.[1]
Ukuphusha isihloko esithi “ukulwelwa kobukhosi bukaNkulunkulu” kwenza okungaphezu kokunika amandla ubuholi benhlangano. Ibeka lona kanye igama, elithi oFakazi BakaJehova, ngoba bafakazelani, uma kungenjalo ukuthi ukubusa kukaJehova kungcono kunekaSathane? Uma ukubusa kukaJehova kungadingeki ukuthi kulwelwe, uma inhloso yeBhayibheli kungesikho ukufakazela ukuthi umbuso wakhe ungcono kunoSathane, kusho ukuthi alikho “icala lasenkantolo lendawo yonke”[2] futhi asikho isidingo sofakazi bakaNkulunkulu.[3] Akekho yena noma indlela yakhe yokubusa esecaleni.
Ekupheleni kwendatshana yesibili, kwaphakanyiswa imibuzo mayelana nobunjalo bobukhosi bukaNkulunkulu. Ngabe kufana nje nobukhosi bomuntu ngokuhluka okukhona nje ukuthi Kwakhe unikeza umbusi olungile nemithetho enobulungiswa? Noma ingabe kuyinto ehluke kakhulu kunoma yini esake sabhekana nayo?
Isilinganiso sesingeniso kulo mbhalo sithathwe ku-Okthoba 1, 1984 INqabayokulinda. Kwembula bengazi ukuthi koFakazi BakaJehova, awukho umehluko ophathekayo phakathi kokubusa kukaSathane nokukaNkulunkulu. Uma ukulwelwa kukaJehova kunjalo Okuningi kubaluleke ukwedlula ukusindiswa kwabantu bakhe, lapho kukhona umehluko phakathi kokubusa kukaNkulunkulu nokwakaSathane? Ngabe kufanele siphethe ngokuthi, kuSathane, ukulwelwa kwakhe kungukuthi Ngaphansi kubaluleke ukwedlula ukusindiswa kwabalandeli bakhe? Akunjalo! Ngakho-ke ngokusho koFakazi BakaJehova, maqondana nokulwelwa, uSathane noJehova abahlukani. Bobabili bafuna into efanayo: ukuzithethelela; futhi ukukuthola kubaluleke ngaphezu kosindiso lwabantu babo. Ngamafuphi, oFakazi BakaJehova babheka ohlangothini oluphambene lwemali efanayo.
UFakazi KaJehova angazizwa ekhombisa ukuthobeka ngokufundisa ukuthi ukulwelwa kokubusa kukaNkulunkulu kubaluleke kakhulu kunokusindiswa kwakhe. Kodwa-ke, njengoba kungekho lapho iBhayibheli lifundisa khona into enjalo, lokhu kuthobeka kunomphumela ongahlosiwe wokuletha isihlamba egameni elihle likaNkulunkulu. Ngempela, singobani thina esingacabanga ukuthi sitshele uNkulunkulu lokho okufanele akubone kubalulekile?
Ngokwengxenye, lesi simo singenxa yokuntula ukuqonda kwangempela mayelana nokuthi yini eyakha umbuso kaNkulunkulu. Ubukhosi bukaNkulunkulu buhluke kanjani kobukaSathane nobomuntu?
Singakwazi yini, mhlawumbe ukuthola impendulo ngokuphinda sibuze umbuzo wengqikithi yeBhayibheli?
Isihloko SeBhayibheli
Njengoba ubukhosi kungeyona isihloko seBhayibheli, yini? Ukungcweliswa kwegama likaNkulunkulu? Lokho kubalulekile impela, kepha ingabe lokho yilokho okushiwo yiBhayibheli lonke? Abanye bangaphakamisa ukuthi ukusindiswa kwesintu kuyisihloko seBhayibheli: IPharadesi elahlekile laphinde labuya ipharadesi. Abanye basikisela ukuthi kumayelana nembewu kaGenesise 3:15. Kuyavunywa, kunokubaluleka okuthile kuleso sizathu kwazise ingqikithi yencwadi idlula kuyo kusukela ekuqaleni (isingeniso setimu) kuya ekugcineni (ukulungiswa kwengqikimba), okuyikho kanye okwenziwa yisihloko "senzalo". Kwethulwa kuGenesise njengemfihlakalo, eyembuleka kancane kancane emakhasini emiBhalo yangaphambi kobuKristu. Isikhukhula sikaNowa singabonakala njengendlela yokulondoloza abambalwa abasele baleyo mbewu. Incwadi kaRuthe, yize iyisifundo esiyisibonelo esihle ngokwethembeka nokwethembeka, inikeza isixhumanisi ochungechungeni lohlu lozalo oluholela kuMesiya, isici esiyinhloko senzalo. Incwadi ka-Esteri ikhombisa ukuthi uJehova wawavikela kanjani ama-Israyeli futhi ngaleyo ndlela imbewu ekuhlaselweni okukhulu nguSathane. Encwadini yokugcina yohlu lwezincwadi zeBhayibheli, iSambulo, imfihlakalo isiqediwe ngokunqoba kokugcina kwenzalo egcina ngokufa kukaSathane.
Ukungcweliswa, Insindiso, noma iMbewu? Yinye into eqinisekile, lezi zihloko ezintathu zihlobene kakhulu. Uma kufanele kusikhathaze ukulungisa eyodwa ibaluleke kakhulu kunezinye; ukuzinza esihlokweni esiyinhloko seBhayibheli?
Ngikhumbula ngisekilasini lami lezincwadi zesikole esiphakeme eShakespeare The Merchant of Venice kunezindikimba ezintathu. Uma umdlalo ungaba nezindikimba ezintathu ezihlukene, zingaki ezwini likaNkulunkulu esintwini? Mhlawumbe ngokuzama ukukhomba the Isihloko seBhayibheli sizibeka engcupheni yokwehlisa sibe sezingeni leNoveli Engcwele. Isizathu kuphela esenza ukuthi sibe nale ngxoxo kungenxa yokugcizelelwa okuyiphutha okushicilelwe yi-Watchtower, Bible & Tract Society ngalolu daba. Kepha njengoba sibonile, lokho kwenziwa ukuxhasa uhlelo lomuntu.
Ngakho-ke kunokuba sihlanganyele kulokho okuyimpikiswano yezifundo ngokuqondene nokuthi iyiphi ingqikithi esemqoka, ake sigxile esihlokweni esisodwa esizosisiza ukuthi simqonde kangcono uBaba wethu; ngoba ngokumqonda, sizoqonda indlela yakhe yokubusa — ubukhosi bakhe uma uthanda.
Icebo Ekupheleni
Ngemuva kweminyaka engaba ngu-1,600 1 yokubhala okuphefumulelwe, iBhayibheli liyaphela. Izazi eziningi ziyavuma ukuthi izincwadi zokugcina ezake zabhalwa yivangeli nezincwadi ezintathu zikaJohane. Siyini isihloko esivelele sezincwadi ezakha amagama okugcina uJehova awathumele esintwini? Ngegama elilodwa, "uthando". UJohn kwesinye isikhathi kubhekiselwa kuye ngokuthi "umphostoli wothando" ngenxa yokugcizelela kwakhe leyo mfanelo emibhalweni yakhe. Encwadini yakhe yokuqala kunesambulo esikhuthazayo ngoNkulunkulu esitholakala kumusho omfishane, olula wamagama amathathu kuphela: "uNkulunkulu uluthando". (4 Johane 8: 16, XNUMX)
Ngingahle ngiphume ngilumbo lapha, kodwa angikholwa ukuthi kukhona umusho kulo lonke iBhayibheli eliveza okuningi ngoNkulunkulu, futhi ngakho konke okudaliweyo, kunalawo magama amathathu.
UNkulunkulu uluthando
Kunjengokungathi yonke into ebhalelwe kulelo phuzu ehlanganisa iminyaka engama-4,000 yokuxhumana kwabantu noBaba wethu konke bekukhona nje ukubeka isisekelo salesi sambulo esishaqisayo. UJohn, umfundi uJesu amthandayo, wakhethwa ekupheleni kwempilo yakhe ukungcwelisa igama likaNkulunkulu ngokwambulwa kwaleli qiniso elilodwa: uNkulunkulu IS uthando.
Lokho esinakho lapha ikhwalithi eyisisekelo kaNkulunkulu; ikhwalithi echazayo. Zonke ezinye izimfanelo — ubulungiswa bakhe, ukuhlakanipha kwakhe, amandla akhe, nanoma yini enye engaba khona — ingaphansi futhi ilinganiselwe yilesi sici esivelele sikaNkulunkulu. Uthando!
Luyini uthando?
Ngaphambi kokuba siqhubeke, kufanele siqale siqiniseke ukuthi siyaluqonda ukuthi luyini uthando. Ngaphandle kwalokho, singaqhubeka ngaphansi kwesisekelo esiyiphutha esingaholela esiphethweni esingalungile.
Kunamagama amane esiGreki angahunyushwa ngokuthi “uthando” esiNgisini. Okuvamile ezincwadini zesiGreki ngu erōs lapho sithola khona igama lethu lesiNgisi elithi "erotic". Lokhu kubhekisela othandweni lwemvelo enothando. Yize ingavinjelwe kuphela othandweni lomzimba ngezimpawu zayo eziqinile zocansi, isetshenziswa kakhulu emibhalweni yesiGreki kulowo mongo.
Okulandelayo esinakho storgē. Lokhu kusetshenziselwa ukuchaza uthando phakathi kwamalungu omndeni. Ngokuyinhloko, isetshenziselwa ubudlelwano begazi, kepha amaGrikhi ayisebenzisile futhi ukuchaza noma yibuphi ubuhlobo bomndeni, ngisho nobulingisa.
Cha erōs noma storgē avele emiBhalweni YamaKristu YesiGreki, noma eyokugcina yenzeka ngegama elihlanganisiwe kwabaseRoma 12: 10 elihunyushwe ngokuthi "uthando lobuzalwane".
Igama elivame kakhulu esiGrekini elithi uthando philia okusho uthando phakathi kwabangane — lolo thando olufudumele oluzalwa ngokuhloniphana, okwabiwe nakho, kanye "nokuhlangana kwezingqondo". Ngakho-ke ngenkathi umyeni ezothanda (erōs) umkakhe nendodana bangathanda (storgē) abazali bakhe, amalungu omndeni ajabule ngempela ayoboshwa uthando (philia) komunye nomunye.
Ngokungafani namanye amagama amabili, philia Ivela emiBhalweni YamaKhristu ngezindlela zayo ezahlukahlukene (isibizo, isenzo, isiphawulo) izikhathi ezingaphezu kweshumi nambili.
UJesu wayebathanda bonke abafundi bakhe, kodwa kuyaziwa phakathi kwabo ukuthi wayenothando olukhethekile koyedwa, uJohane.
“Ngakho weza egijima kuSimoni Petru nomunye umfundi, lowo uJesu amthandayo (philia), futhi bathi, "Bayikhiphile iNkosi ethuneni, futhi asazi ukuthi bayibekephi!" (John 20: 2 NIV)
Igama lesine lesiGrikhi elithi uthando lithi agapē. Ngenkathi philia kuvame kakhulu emibhalweni yesiGreek yasendulo, agapē ayiyona. Kodwa okuhlukile kuyiqiniso emiBhalweni YamaKristu. Kukho konke ukwenzeka kwe- philia, kukhona eziyishumi agapē. UJesu walisebenzisa leli gama elincane elisetshenzisiwe lesiGreki ngenkathi enqaba abazala balo abavame kakhulu. Ababhali abangamaKrestu nabo benze njalo, belandela ukuholwa yinkosi yabo, noJohn esekela le ndaba.
Kungani?
Ngamafuphi, ngoba iNkosi yethu ibidinga ukuveza imibono emisha; imibono obekungekho zwi ngayo. Ngakho-ke uJesu wathatha umuntu ongcono kunabo bonke kusuka kusilulumagama sesiGreki wasigoqa wangena kuleli gama elilula ukujula kwencazelo namandla eyayingakaze ivezwe ngaphambili.
Lezi ezinye ezintathu zothando uthando lwenhliziyo. Ukuyiveza ngokunqekuza kuma-psychology majors aphakathi kwethu, uthando oluthinta ukusabela kwamakhemikhali / ama-hormonal ebuchosheni. Nge erōs sikhuluma ngokuthandana, noma ngabe namhlanje kuyindaba yokuwela enkanukweni. Noma kunjalo, ukusebenza kobuchopho okuphezulu akuhlangene nakancane nakho. Ngokwe storgē, ngokwengxenye yakhelwe kumuntu futhi ngokwengxenye umphumela wobuchopho obubunjwa kusukela ebuntwaneni. Lokhu akusikiseli ukuthi kukhona okungahambi kahle, ngoba lokhu ngokusobala kwaklanywe kithi nguNkulunkulu. Kepha futhi, umuntu akenzi isinqumo esiqondile sokuthanda umama noma ubaba wakho. Kwenzeka kanjalo nje, futhi kuthatha ukukhaphela okukhulu ukubhubhisa lolo thando.
Singakucabanga lokho philia kuyahluka, kodwa futhi, i-chemistry ihilelekile. Sisebenzisa lelo gama esiNgisini, ikakhulukazi lapho abantu ababili becabanga ukushada. Ngenkathi erōs engase iholele ekutheni, esikufunayo kumuntu oshade naye othile “abanamakhemikhali amahle.”
Wake wahlangana nomuntu ofuna ukuba umngane wakho, kodwa ungazizwa umthanda ngokukhethekile ngalo muntu? Angaba umuntu omuhle — onomusa, onokwethenjelwa, ohlakaniphile, noma yini. Ngokombono osebenzayo, ukukhetha okuhle kakhulu komngani, futhi ungamthanda lowo muntu ngezinga elithile, kepha uyazi ukuthi alikho ithuba lobungane obuseduze nobuseduze. Uma ubuzwa, mhlawumbe ubungeke ukwazi ukuchaza ukuthi kungani ungezwa lobo bungani, kepha awukwazi ukuzenza uzizwe. Kalula nje, ayikho i-chemistry lapho.
Ibhuku Ubuchopho Obuzishintsha nguNorman Doidge usho lokhu ekhasini 115:
"I-fMRI yakamuva (ukusebenza kwe-magnetic resonance imaging) ukuskena kwabathandi ababheka izithombe zabathandekayo bayo kukhombisa ukuthi ingxenye yobuchopho ngokugxila okukhulu kwe-dopamine iyasebenza; ubuchopho babo babubukeka njengobabantu abasebenzisa i-cocaine. ”
Ngamazwi, uthando (philia) kusenza sizizwe sihle. Ngaleyo ndlela ubuchopho bethu bunentambo.
I-Agapē yehlukile kwezinye izinhlobo zothando ngokuthi luthando oluzalwa ngengqondo. Kungaba ngokwemvelo ukuthanda abantu bakho, abangane bakho, umndeni wakho, kepha ukuthanda izitha zakho akuvele kuzenzekele. Kudinga ukuthi senze okuphambene nemvelo, ukunqoba izifiso zethu zemvelo.
Ngenkathi uJesu esiyala ukuthi sithande izitha zethu, wasebenzisa igama lesiGrikhi agapē ukwethula uthando olususelwa kusisekelo, uthando lwengqondo kanye nenhliziyo.
“Kodwa-ke ngithi kini: Qhubekani nithanda (agapate) izitha zakho futhi uthandazele labo abakushushisayo, 45 ukuze nizibonakalise ningamadodana kaYihlo osemazulwini, njengoba enza ukuba ilanga lakhe liphume kubo ababi nabalungile futhi enze imvula ibe kwabalungileyo nabangalungile. ”(Mt 5: 44, 45)
Kuwukunqoba ukuthambekela kwethu kwemvelo ukuthanda labo abasizondayo.
Lokhu akusho ukuthi lokho agapē uthando luhlala luhle. Kungasetshenziswa kabi. Isibonelo, uPaul uthi, "Ngoba uDema ungishiyile ngoba ethanda (agapēsas) uhlelo olukhona lwezinto…" (2Tm 4:10) UDemas wamshiya uPaul ngoba wayecabanga ukuthi angakuthola akufunayo ngokubuyela emhlabeni. Uthando lwakhe lwaluwumphumela wesinqumo esazi kahle.
Ngenkathi ukusetshenziswa kwesizathu — amandla engqondo — kuyahlukanisa agapē kusuka kulo lonke olunye uthando, akumelwe sicabange ukuthi ayikho ingxenye yomzwelo kuyo. I-Agapē imizwa, kepha yimizwa esiyilawulayo, kunaleyo esilawulayo. Yize kungahle kubonakale kubanda futhi kungathandeki "ukunquma" ukuzwa okuthile, lolu thando alugodoli.
Sekungamakhulu eminyaka ababhali nezimbongi bethandana 'ngokuthandana', 'ukukhukhulwa uthando', 'ukudliwa uthando' ... uhlu luyaqhubeka. Njalo, yisithandwa esingakwazi ukumelana nokuqhutshwa ngamandla othando. Kodwa uthando olunjalo, njengoba okuhlangenwe nakho kubonisile, luvame ukungaqondakali. Ukukhaphela kungadala ukuthi umyeni alahlekelwe yilokho erōs lomkakhe; indodana ukulahlekelwa storgē labazali; indoda ukulahlekelwa philia womngane, kodwa agapē akusoze kwehluleka. (1Co 13: 8) Kuzoqhubeka inqobo nje uma kunethemba lokuhlengwa.
UJesu wathi:
“Uma uthanda (agapēsēte) labo abakuthanda, uzothola muphi umvuzo? Abenzi njalo nabathelisi? I-47 Futhi uma ubingelela abantu bakho kuphela, wenzani ngaphezu kwabanye? Ngisho nabahedeni abakwenzi lokho? I-48 Iphelele-ke, njengoba uYihlo osezulwini ephelele. ”(Mt 5: 46-48)
Singase sibathande ngokujulile labo abasithandayo, sikukhombise lokho agapē uthando lomuzwa omkhulu nomzwelo. Kepha ukuze siphelele njengoNkulunkulu wethu ophelele, akumele sigcine lapho.
Ukubeka ngenye indlela, laba abanye abathathu bayathanda ukusilawula. Kepha agapē uthando esilulawulayo. Ngisho noma sinesono, singalubonisa uthando lukaNkulunkulu, ngoba senziwe ngomfanekiso wakhe naye uluthando. Ngaphandle kwesono, imfanelo evelele yokuphelela[4] umuntu uzoba nothando.
Kusetshenziswe njengoNkulunkulu, agapē Uthando oluhlale lufunela othandekayo okuhle. I-Erōs: indoda ingabekezelela izici ezimbi kumthandi ukuze ingamlahli. Storgē: Umama angahluleka ukulungisa ukuziphatha okubi enganeni ukuze esabe ukuyihlukanisa. Philia: a indoda ingavumela ukuziphatha okungalungile kumngani ukuze ingabubeki engcupheni ubungani. Kodwa-ke, uma ngayinye yalezi nayo izwa agapē kothi loyo othandekayo / ingane / umngani, yena (noma yena) uzokwenza konke okusemandleni ukuzuzisa othandekayo, kungakhathalekile ukuba sengozini kuye noma ebudlelwaneni.
I-Agapē ibeka omunye umuntu kuqala.
UmKristu ofisa ukuphelela njengoYise uphelele uyolinganisa noma ikuphi ukubonakaliswa erōs, noma storgē, noma i-philia nge agapē.
I-Agapē uthando lokunqoba. Uthando olunqoba zonke izinto. Uthando oluhlala njalo. Kuthando olungenabugovu olungapheli. Kukhulu kunethemba. Kukhulu kunokukholwa. (I-1 John 5: 3; I-1 Cor. I-13: 7, 8, 13)
Ukujula Kothando lukaNkulunkulu
Ngifunde izwi likaNkulunkulu impilo yami yonke futhi manje sengiyindoda endala ngokusemthethweni. Angingedwa kulokhu. Abaningi abafunda izindatshana kule nkundla ngokufanayo banikele impilo yabo yonke ekufundeni nasekuzameni ukuqonda uthando lukaNkulunkulu.
Isimo sethu sikhumbuza umngane wami onekotishi eliseduze kwechibi elisenyakatho. Uye lapho njalo ehlobo kusukela esemncane. Ulazi kahle leli chibi — yonke imingcele, wonke amadolozi, nawo wonke amadwala angaphansi nje komhlaba. Uyibonile entathakusa ngokusa okuthe cwaka lapho ubuso bayo bufana nengilazi. Uyayazi imisinga yayo efika ntambama eshisayo lapho kunomoya oheleza phezulu. Uhambe ngayo ngomkhumbi, wayibhukuda, wadlala emanzini ayo apholile nezingane zakhe. Noma kunjalo, akanalo nhlobo ulwazi lokuthi lujule kangakanani. Izinyawo ezingamashumi amabili noma izinkulungwane ezimbili, akazi. Ichibi elijule kakhulu emhlabeni lingaphezu nje kwekhilomitha ukujula.[5] Noma kunjalo kuyichibi nje ngokuqhathanisa nokujula kothando lukaNkulunkulu olungenamkhawulo. Ngemuva kweminyaka engaphezu kwengu-XNUMX, sengifana nomngani wami owazi kuphela ubukhulu bothando lukaNkulunkulu. Anginalo noluncane ulwazi lokujula kwalo, kepha lokho kulungile. Yilokho impilo engunaphakade, ngemuva kwakho konke.
"... Lokhu kungukuphila okuphakade: ukukwazi wena, owukuphela kukaNkulunkulu weqiniso ..." (UJohn 17: 3 NIV)
Uthando Nobukhosi
Njengoba sihamba nje ngothando lukaNkulunkulu, ake sihlele leyo ngxenye yelibi — ukunweba isingathekiso — esithinta impikiswano yobukhosi. Njengoba uNkulunkulu eluthando, ukusebenzisa kwakhe ubukhosi, ukubusa kwakhe, kufanele kusekelwe othandweni.
Asikaze sazi uhulumeni osebenza ngothando. Ngakho-ke singena emanzini angafakwanga. (Ngizoshiya isingathekiso manje.)
Lapho ebuzwa ukuthi uJesu uyikhokha yini intela yethempeli, uPetru waphendula ngokungavumi. Kamuva uJesu wamlungisa ngokubuza:
“Ucabangani, Simon? Amakhosi omhlaba amukela kubani imisebenzi noma intela yenhloko? Ezamadodaneni abo noma nakwabafokazi? ” 26 Lapho ethi: "Kwabahambi," uJesu wathi kuye: "Ngakho-ke, impela, amadodana akakhokhwa intela." (Mt 17: 25, 26)
Njengendodana yenkosi, indlalifa, uJesu wayengenaso isibopho sokukhokha intela. Okuthokozisayo ukuthi kungekudala, uSimon Peter wayezoba yindodana yenkosi futhi, ngakho-ke, futhi akayikhokhi intela. Kepha akugcini lapho. U-Adamu wayeyindodana kaNkulunkulu. (ULuka 3: 38Ukube akazange one, sonke ngabe sisengamadodana kaNkulunkulu. UJesu weza emhlabeni ukuzobuyisana. Lapho umsebenzi wakhe usuphelile, bonke abantu bazophinde babe ngabantwana bakaNkulunkulu, njengoba nje nazo zonke izingelosi. (Jobe 38: 7)
Ngakho-ke ngaso leso sikhathi, sinendlela eyingqayizivele yokubusa embusweni kaNkulunkulu. Zonke izifundo zakhe nazo ziyizingane zakhe. (Khumbula, ukubusa kukaNkulunkulu akuqali ize iphele iminyaka eyinkulungwane. - 1Co 15: 24-28) Ngakho-ke kufanele sishiye noma imuphi umqondo wobukhosi njengoba sazi kanjalo. Isibonelo esiseduze somuntu esingasithola esichaza ukubusa kukaNkulunkulu ngesikababa wezingane zakhe. Ngabe ubaba ufuna ukuphatha amadodana namadodakazi akhe? Ingabe lowo umgomo wakhe? Kuyavunywa, njengezingane, bayatshelwa ukuthi benzeni, kodwa njalo ngenhloso yokubasiza ukuthi bazimele; ukufeza isilinganiso esithile sokuzimela. Imithetho kababa yenzelwe bona, hhayi eyakhe. Noma sebekhulile, bayaqhubeka nokuholwa yileyo mithetho, ngoba bafunda besezingane ukuthi izinto ezimbi zehlela lapho bengalaleli ubaba.
Yiqiniso, ubaba ongumuntu ulinganiselwe. Izingane zakhe zingakhula zimdlule ngokuhlakanipha. Nokho, lokho ngeke kube njalo ngoBaba wethu osezulwini. Noma kunjalo, uJehova akasidalanga ukuba silawule ukuphila kwethu. Futhi akasidalelanga ukuthi simkhonze. Akazidingi izisebenzi. Uphelele kuye uqobo. Manje kungani wasidala? Impendulo ithi UNkulunkulu uluthando. Usidalele ukuthi asithande, futhi ukuze nathi sikhule simthande.
Yize kunezici ezithile ebuhlotsheni bethu noJehova uNkulunkulu ezingafaniswa nenkosi nezikhonzi zayo, umthetho wakhe sizowuqonda kangcono uma sigcina isithombe senhloko yomndeni sisezingqondweni zethu. Yimuphi ubaba obeka izizathu zakhe ngenhlalakahle yezingane zakhe? Yimuphi ubaba onentshisekelo yokuthola ukufaneleka kwesikhundla sakhe njengenhloko yomndeni kunokusindisa izingane zakhe? Khumbula, agapē ibeka othandekayo kuqala!
Yize ukulwelwa kobukhosi bukaJehova kungashiwo eBhayibhelini, ukungcweliswa kwegama lakhe. Singakuqonda kanjani lokho njengoba kuthinta thina naye agapēumthetho obekiwe?
Cabanga nje ubaba elwela ilungelo lokugcina izingane zakhe. Unkosikazi wakhe uyamhlukumeza futhi uyazi ukuthi izingane ngeke zimhambele kahle, kepha uhlambalaze igama lakhe kwaze kwaba sezingeni lokuthi inkantolo isizomnikeza ilungelo lokugcina umntwana yedwa. Kumele alwele ukugeza igama lakhe. Kodwa-ke, lokhu akakwenzi ngenxa yokuziqhenya, noma ngenxa yesidingo sokuzithethelela, kepha kunalokho ukusindisa izingane zakhe. Uthando ngabo yilo olumgqugquzelayo. Lesi yisifaniso esingesihle, kepha inhloso yaso ukukhombisa ukuthi ukuhlanza igama lakhe akumzuzisi uJehova kepha kunalokho kuyasisiza thina. Igama lakhe lingcolisiwe ezingqondweni zezikhonzi zakhe eziningi, izingane zakhe zakudala. Kungokuqonda kuphela ukuthi akafani nabaningi ababengamdweba, kepha kunalokho lufanelwe uthando lwethu nokulalela, lapho singakwazi khona ukuzuza embusweni wakhe. Kungaleso sikhathi kuphela lapho singaphinde sihlangane nomndeni wakhe. Ubaba angayithatha ingane yokutholwa, kepha ingane kufanele ikulungele ukuthathwa.
Ukungcwelisa igama likaNkulunkulu kuyasisindisa.
UMbusi ngokuchasene nobaba
