Ungokabani?

Ungokabani?
Yimuphi uNkulunkulu omlalelayo?
Ngomuntu okhothamela yena kuphela
Inkosi yakho yile; umkhonza manje.
Ungeke ukhonze onkulunkulu ababili;
Womabili la makhosi awakwazi ukwaba
Uthando ngenhliziyo yakho.
Akunjalo noma ngabe awulungile.
(Ingoma ye-Ssb 207)

Singobani, thina boFakazi BakaJehova? Sikhonza uNkulunkulu muphi? Sivikela obani?
Izenzo zikhuluma kakhulu kunamazwi nangezenzo zethu esikhombisa ukuthi sikwazisa kakhulu kangakanani. Ngenxa yendatshana yakamuva Ukubikwa Okubalulekile kwe-Red Hering, igatsha lithi linezinga eliphakeme mayelana nokubikwa kokuhlukunyezwa kwezingane. Nayi i-athikili ekhuluma ngezinga eliphakeme abazibekele lona mayelana nokuziphatha komuntu.
Bengikhuluma nomngani waseBethel izolo ebusuku futhi ungitshele okuthile engingakaze ngizwe ngaphambilini. Ngokusobala umkhaya waseBethel unekhodi eqinile yokuziphatha nokugqoka. Manje, bengihlala ngazi ukuthi ukuze uvakashele eBethel udinga ukugqoka ngezingubo zomhlangano, nokuthi ukuze ube seBethel udinga ukugqoka kahle. Engingakwazi ukuthi ngisho nakwezinye izindaba zomuntu uqobo, ezinjengombala wezinwele, izimbadada, nezifushane, zinamakhodi aqinile.
Ngokuphathelene nombala wezinwele, ngatshelwa ukuthi odade banobubanzi obunqunyelwe lapho kufanele bafake khona imibala yezinwele zabo. Angiqinisekile ngempela ngesisekelo semibhalo salokhu, kepha ngiyazi abanye abaphelelwe ilungelo lenkonzo yaseBethel ngokufa kwezinwele zabo ngombala othile. Ngakho-ke ngiyazi ukuthi kumele kube khona iqiniso elithile kulesi sitatimende.
Ngokuphathelene nokugqoka izikhindi, imingcele evamile yokulwa “amafushane amafushane” noma izingubo eziqinile nezembulayo yayaziwa njalo kimi. Engingakwazi ukuthi abavunyelwe ukusebenzisa umnyango wangaphambili weBethel uma begqoke izikhindi. Ukuba isivakashi esijwayelekile lapho, kufanele ngivume ukuthi angikaze ngibone umuntu owayebagqokisa egumbini lokuhlala. Okufanayo kuhamba nezicucu ezivulekile njengezimbadada zabesilisa. Abafowethu bebengeke bavunyelwe ukugqoka izimbadada futhi baphume ngaphandle komnyango eBethel, ngokusobala ukuqiniseka ukuthi akekho obukela phansi uJehova noma abantu bakhe. Yilapho ingxoxo yaqala khona ukuthakazelisa.
Ngabe sengitshelwa indaba yomuntu owayekhonza eBethel owayenze isenzo sobuqhawe futhi wasindisa othile. Wabhalwa ephephandabeni lendawo futhi wanconywa kakhulu. Okwenzeka ngokulandelayo kwakungajwayelekile. Umuntu othile ongagagulwanga ngegama wabamba igama lalo mzalwane futhi wemba inhlabathi kuye eyenzeka eminyakeni eyedlule, nangaphambi kokuba abe ngufakazi. Lokhu kwakuqukethe isithombe esikhombisa lo mzalwane esesimweni sokuyekethisa; hhayi noma yini engekho emthethweni noma enokuziphatha okubi, khumbula lokho, okuyihlazo nje. Khumbula, lokhu kwenzeka ngaphambi kokuba abhapathizwe, ngaphambi kokuba abe omunye woFakazi BakaJehova. Lapho igatsha lithola ngakho, waxoshwa eBethel. Ngibuze umngani wami ukuthi kungani lokho. Lo mzalwane waletha udumo egameni likaJehova ngesenzo sakhe esihle, futhi manje ingabe wayejeziswa ngenxa yalokho? Ingabe uJehova akasithetheleli zonke izono ezedlule lapho sibhapathizwa? Ingabe ukubhapathizwa akusona isicelo esenziwa kuNkulunkulu sokunikezwa unembeza ohlanzekile? (1 Petru 3:20, 21)
Umngane wami wasivikela isinqumo saseBethel ngokuthi le nsizwa yayingaphezu kokuhlanjalazwa futhi ngenxa yalokho yayingakufanelekeli ukwenza inkonzo ekhethekile yesikhathi esigcwele. Sivumele aboFakazi ababhabhadisiwe abasuswa ekuhlanganyeleni ngenxa yobufebe, ukuphinga — noma kwezinye izimo, kususelwa ebufakazini e-Australia, ukuhlukunyezwa kwezingane — ukubuya futhi bakhonze njengamaphayona (izikhonzi zesikhathi esigcwele) nabadala.
Ngakungabaza ukuthi akukho ndawo emBhalweni lapho uJehova enza into efana nalena kunoma ngubani oba enye yezinceku zakhe. Umngani wami wabe esecasulwa wathi angingaxabani naye. Uma i-FDS[i] uthi akafaneleki ngakho-ke aka…. I-Full Stop.
Singabobani, empeleni?

Inkinga Eyisisekelo

Ngithole le ngxoxo iyiphazamisa ngezizathu eziningi.

• UJehova akenzi lokhu ezincekwini zakhe. Iqiniso elula ukuthi uGatsheni uzizwa ngale ndlela lingikhombisa ukuthi basibambe ngezinga eliphakeme ukwedlula elikaSomandla. Ngakho-ke babonakala sengathi basebenza njengoNkulunkulu abazenzele bona.
• Obani ababevikela ngempela? Isithunzi sikaJehova? Noma ezabo?
• Uma besaba into encane efana nalena eyaziwa ngumphakathi, yibuphi ubude abazohamba ukuze bahlangabezane nezinkinga ezinkulu njengokulungiswa kokuhlukunyezwa kwezingane ezinhlwini zethu?

Izinto zokuqala kuqala.
Ake sibheke izibonelo ezithile zendlela uJehova abaphatha ngayo labo ababenze izono zasobala.

Ukusebenzelana kukaJehova neNkosi uDavide

INkosi uDavide, njengoba sonke sazi, yayingumuntu othandeka enhliziyweni kaJehova. Ngisho nangemva kwesikhathi eside eseshonile, waphathwa njengesibonelo amakhosi alandela wona okufanele awalandele. Eqinisweni, iNkosi yethu uJesu nguDavide ongokomfanekiso. (Amakhosi we-1 14: 8; Ezekiel 34: 23; 37: 24) Kodwa futhi siyazi ukuthi wenza izono ezinkulu kakhulu kubandakanya ukuphinga nokubulala wayesezama ukuzifihla. Qaphela ukuthi wayekhona kakade inceku kaJehova lapho kwenzeka lokhu. Ngitjho nawo woke umlando lo, uJehova bekamvumela bona aqhubeke nokubusa, nanyana bekusafuneka abekezelele imiphumela yezenzo zakhe.
Qaphela ukuthi i-WT ithini ngaye:

“Impilo kaDavid yayigcwele amalungelo, ukunqoba kanye nezinhlekelele. Noma kunjalo, okusidonsela kuye ngaphezu kwakho konke yilokho okwashiwo umprofethi uSamuweli ngoDavide — wayezoba “umuntu ovumelana nenhliziyo [kaJehova].” - 1 Samuweli 13:14. ” (w11 9/1 ikhasi 26)

“Sonke asiphelele, futhi sonke siyona. (Roma 3:23) Ngezinye izikhathi singawela esonweni esingathi sína, njengoba kwenza uDavide. Yize isiyalo sizuzisa, noma kunjalo, akulula ukusithatha. Empeleni, ngezinye izikhathi kuba “buhlungu.” (Hebheru 12: 6, 11) Noma kunjalo, uma 'silalela isiyalo,' singabuyisana noJehova. ” (w04 4/1 k. 18 isig. 14)

Yebo, singabuyisana noJehova, kepha ngokusobala hhayi i-Watch Tower Bible & Tract Society, noma ngabe izono zazikade zenzeka esikhathini esidlule futhi uNkulunkulu wayesesixolele. Ingabe lokhu akubonakali kukuxaka kuwe?

Umlando KaRahabi Awunakwa

URahabi wayehlala edolobheni laseJeriko futhi wayewazi kahle umuzi wakubo. Wayebazi nabantu kahle. Wabona ukuthi babethukile abakwa-Israyeli ababemasha bezungeza umuzi. Noma kunjalo uRahabi akazange ezwe ukwesaba okufanayo nezakhamizi zakubo. Kungani kwaba njalo? Ubelahle intambo ebomvu ngaphandle kwelinye lamawindi akhe ngesenzo sokholo. Ngakho-ke ngenkathi idolobha libhujiswa, umndeni wakhe wasinda. Manje uRahabi, kuze kube yileli qophelo, wayephile impilo emnandi kakhulu. Nakhu okushiwo yi-WT ngaye:

“URahabi wayeyisifebe. Leli qiniso lishaqisa abanye abahlaziyi beBhayibheli esikhathini esidlule kangangokuba bathi wayengumgcini wendlu yezihambi. Kodwa, iBhayibheli licacile futhi alifihli iqiniso. (UJoshua 2: 1; Hebheru 11: 31; James 2: 25) URahabi kungenzeka wabona kahle ukuthi indlela yakhe yokuphila yayonakele. Mhlawumbe, njengabaningi namuhla ezinhlotsheni ezinjalo zokuphila, waba nomuzwa wokuthi ubanjiwe, kungekho okunye ukukhetha uma efuna ukunakekela umndeni wakhe. ”(W13 11 / 1 p. 12)

URahabi wayehlukile kubantu bakubo. Eminyakeni edlule, ubecabanga ngemibiko ayizwile ngo-Israyeli nangoNkulunkulu wawo, uJehova. Wayengafani ngokuphelele nonkulunkulu baseKhanani! Lapha kwakukhona uNkulunkulu owayelwela abantu bakhe esikhundleni sokubahlukumeza; owaphakamisa izindinganiso zokuziphatha zabakhulekeli bakhe kunokuba azidicilele phansi. LoNkulunkulu waphatha abesifazane njengabayigugu, hhayi njengezinto nje zocansi okufanele zithengwe, zithengiswe, futhi zonakaliswe ekukhulekeleni okubi. Lapho uRahabi ezwa ukuthi u-Israyeli ukanise ngaphesheya kweJordani, eselungele ukungena, kufanele ukuba wethuka lapho ezwa lokho okwakungasho kubantu bakhe. Ingabe uJehova wambona uRahabi futhi wakuthola okuhle kuye?

“Namuhla, kunabantu abaningi abanjengoRahabi. Bazizwa beboshiwe, bebambekile endleleni yokuphila ebaphuca isithunzi nenjabulo; bazizwa bengabonakali futhi bengelutho. Icala likaRahabi liyisikhumbuzo esiduduzayo sokuthi akekho kithi ongabonakali kuNkulunkulu. Akunandaba ukuthi sizizwa siphansi kangakanani, “akakude kuye ngamunye wethu.” (Izenzo 17: 27) Usondele, futhi ukulungele ukunikeza ithemba kubo bonke labo abakholwa kuye. ”(W13 11 / 1 p. 13)

Siyabona ukuthi uJehova wamsindisa lona wesifazane. Wajoyina abantu bakhe waze wamvumela ukuba abe ngukhokhokazi kaBowazi, iNkosi uDavid futhi ekugcineni, uJesu Kristu uqobo. Kodwa-ke ukube ubesaphila namuhla, ngenxa yesikhathi esidlule, cishe ubengeke avunyelwe ukukhonza eBethel. Ingabe lokhu kunengqondo kuwe?
Ukhokho weNkosi yethu uJesu, akavunyelwe ukuthi akhonze eBethel. Ngabe mhlawumbe uJesu ubezoba nokuthile angakusho ngalokho?

Indoda Ekhohlisayo

Siqala ukuzwa ngoSawule waseTarsus ebhayibhelini kuzEnzo 7: 58 ngesikhathi kukhandwa ngamatshe uStefanu. Abantu ababelapho babeka izingubo zabo zangaphandle ezinyaweni zakhe ukuze abukele. KumJuda, wayenakho konke ukuxhumana okuhle. Nakhu okwashiwo yi-WT ngaye:

Ngokwencwadi yakhe, uSawule “wasokwa ngosuku lwesishiyagalombili, ephuma emndenini wakwa-Israyeli, owesizwe sakwaBenjamini, umHeberu owazalwa amaHeberu; ngokuqondene nomthetho, ngingumFarisi. ”Lokho kwakubhekwa njengengqondo yomthetho wamaJuda! (w03 6 / 1 p. 8)

Wayenemfundo ephakeme futhi eyisakhamuzi saseRoma okwamenza waba phakathi kwezikhulu zomphakathi emuva ngaleso sikhathi. Nokho, uSawule naye wayenecala elibi. Qaphela futhi ukuthi i-WT ithini:

“USawule wayaziwa kakhulu ngenkulumo yakhe engenanhlonipho, ngisho nangokuziphatha kwakhe ngobudlova. IBhayibheli lithi “wayephefumula usongo nokubulala abafundi beNkosi.” (IzEnzo 9: 1, 2) Kamuva wavuma ukuthi 'wayengumhlambalazi nomshushisi nomuntu oweyisayo.' (1 Thimothewu 1:13) Nakuba kungenzeka ukuthi ezinye zezihlobo zakhe zase zingamaKristu kakade, wathi ngesimo sakhe sengqondo ngabalandeli bakaKristu: “Njengoba ngangibathukuthelele ngokweqile, ngaze ngabashushisa ngisho nasemadolobheni angaphandle. ” (IzEnzo 23:16; 26:11; Roma 16: 7, 11) ”(w05 5/15 kk. 26-27 isig. 5)

Ingabe ukuziphatha kukaSawule kwakwaziwa kahle? Yebo! Wazi kahle ukuthi ngenkathi u-Ananiya ethunyelwa ukuyoshumayeza uSawulu, wesaba kakhulu ngokuhamba. Kungani? Njengoba iZenzo 9: 10-22 ziveza, isimilo sikaSawule esinolaka sase saziwa abaningi. Futhi ngakho konke lokhu, uSawule wakwamukela ukulungiswa futhi waba umphostoli uPawulu. Ukube ubesaphila namuhla, ubengabhekwa njengesikhonzi sesikhathi esigcwele oFakazi BakaJehova, kodwa ngenxa yalokho, umlando wakhe ubuyodinga ukuba simsuse kunoma imaphi “amalungelo enkonzo yesikhathi esigcwele.”

Yisiphi Isiphetho Okufanele Sidwebe?

Iphuzu lalesi senzo ukukhombisa ukuthi umbono kaJehova uhluka kangakanani ezinhlanganweni nezinqubo zenhlangano ezicabangela ukubizwa ngegama lakhe.
Ngenkathi uJehova ebheka izinhliziyo zomuntu ngamunye, futhi azisebenzise ngokwamandla abo aphelele, INqabayokulinda noma njengoba siyibiza kanjalo manje, i-JW.ORG, kubukeka sengathi inomuzwa wokuthi izindinganiso zikaJehova ziphansi kakhulu. Noma yisiphi isigameko esibuhlungu esivela empilweni yomuntu, noma ngabe senziwa ngaphambi kokuba baqale ukuhlangana noFakazi BakaJehova, sekwanele ngathi ukuba sifune ukuhambela kude.
Kubukeka sengathi iBethel inezindinganiso eziphakeme kunoJehova uNkulunkulu uqobo. Akufanele yini lokhu kusikhathaze sonke?
Sekukaningi sizwa inkulumo ethi “Ngabe ucabanga ukuthi wazi kangcono kuneNdikimba Ebusayo?” Noma, “Ngabe ubuza imibuzo ngeNceku Ethembekile?” Esifanele ukuthi sikucele ukuthi, “Ngabe iNdikimba Ebusayo icabanga ukuthi bazi okungaphezulu kwalokho? NguJehova uNkulunkulu? ”
Kuzovela ezenzweni zabo nasendleleni efakwe yinsimbi abalawula ngayo abantu eqinisweni abakwenzayo. Lokhu kukhonjiswe kaningi. Ezikhathini eziningi, ngike ngizwa egatsheni ukuthi iBhayibheli alanele ama-JWs, nathi siyazidinga izincwadi. Simane sibeka inhlangano ezingeni elifanayo nezwi likaNkulunkulu uSomandla.
Njengoba ingoma i-207 isho, asikwazi ukukhonza amaZimu amabili. Ngakho-ke umbuzo uwukuthi, “Ungokabani? Uzomlalela muphi uNkulunkulu? ”
Sizobona engxenyeni yesibili yalesi sihloko lapho ukuthembeka kwethu okungafanele kuhlale kusiholela khona.
