“Yibani abalingisi balabo okuthi ngokholo nokubekezela bazuze ifa lezithembiso.” -U-6: 12
Angazi ngawe, kepha kubonakala kimi ukuthi besilokhu sikhuluma kakhulu ngoJefta nendodakazi yakhe ezikhathini zamuva. Ngicabange ukuthi lokhu kungaba umbono nje wamanga, ngakho ngiphendule umbuzo kuhlelo lweWT Library ngathola ukuthi kusuka ngo-2005 ukuze 2015 (Iminyaka ye-11), uJefta kubhekiswa kuye INqabayokulinda Izikhathi ze-104, ngenkathi zisuka ku-1993 ukuze 2003 (futhi neminyaka eyi-11), inani lehla laya kuma-32 kuphela. Lokho kukwanda okuphindwe kathathu! Lokhu kuyaphawuleka, ngoba lapho iNhlangano ifuna ukwenza izingcingo zokuzidela nokulalela, lokhu kungenye yezindaba eziseBhayibhelini. Xhumanisa lokhu nezinye izindatshana zakamuva ezikhuluma ngokwethembeka — ingasaphathwa eyomhlangano ophelele kulo nyaka ngendaba — bese kuqala i-ajenda.
Kuyiqiniso ukuthi imihlatshelo yayiyingxenye enkulu yohlelo lwezinto lwamaJuda. Isizathu salokho ukuthi uJehova wayesiza amaJuda ukuthi aqonde ukuzidela ayezokwenzela bona ngokunikela ngeNdodana yakhe ukuze bonke baphile. UMthetho nezimfuneko zawo zomhlatshelo wabaletha kuKristu. (IGa 3: 24) Kodwa-ke, lapho lelo phuzu selenziwe futhi umhlatshelo kaMesiya wagcwalisa umthetho, uJehova wayeka ukucela imihlatshelo. Sasingasekho isidingo sazo. Ngakho-ke, emiBhalweni YamaKrestu, leli gama livela kabili kuphela maqondana namaKrestu.
"Ngenxa yalokho ngiyanincenga, bazalwane, ngobubele bukaNkulunkulu ukuba nilethe imizimba yenu ingumhlatshelo ophilayo, ongcwele, owamukelekayo kuNkulunkulu, inkonzo engcwele ngamandla enu okucabanga. ” (Roma 12: 1)
“Ngaye masinikele njalonjalo kuNkulunkulu umhlatshelo wokubonga, okungukuthi, isithelo sezindebe ezivuma obala igama lakhe.” (AmaHeberu 13: 15)
Lapha umbhali ukhuluma ngokufanisa. Usebenzisa umqondo womhlatshelo — lowo labo abavela emlandweni wobuqaba noma wamaJuda ababezojwayeleka ngawo — ukufanekisa iphuzu mayelana nokusebenzela uNkulunkulu. Akaceli noma adinge ukuthi amaKristu anikele ngokuthile njengomnikelo kuNkulunkulu. Akasho ukuthi kulindeleke ukuthi badele ithuba lokushada, noma babe nezingane zokujabulisa uNkulunkulu. Akasho ukuthi kufanele badele ubudlelwane babo namalungu omndeni, ikakhulukazi izingane nabazukulu ukuze bajabulise uNkulunkulu.
Njengoba le ukuphela kwemibhalo esebenzisa imihlatshelo ebuhlotsheni benkonzo yethu kuNkulunkulu, umuntu kufanele azibuze ukuthi kungani iNhlangano ibeka ukugcizelela okukhulu kakhulu ngesidingo soFakazi BakaJehova sokuzidela ukuze bathole ukuvunyelwa uNkulunkulu, njengoba isihloko sisho.
Ukushintsha ukulandisa
Lesi sihloko siqala ngokubeka isisekelo esingamanga, sidukisa umfundi ukuba acabange ukuthi umhlatshelo uJefta nendodakazi yakhe uyenze into eyayifunwa nguJefta.
"UJefta nendodakazi yakhe eyesaba uNkulunkulu bathembela futhi bathembela endleleni kaJehova yokwenza izinto, ngisho noma kwakunzima ukwenza kanjalo. Babeqiniseka ukuthi ukuthola ukuvunyelwa uNkulunkulu kuwufanele noma yikuphi ukuzidela. ” - Indima. 2
Njengoba sizobona maduzane, ubuholi beNhlangano bufuna ukuthi sikholwe ukuthi uJehova ulindele ukuthi kwenziwe imihlatshelo yomuntu siqu njengendlela yokumjabulisa. Lapho sesamukele lesisekelo, umbuzo osobala uwukuthi, 'Yikuphi ukuzidela uNkulunkulu akufunayo kimi?' Kuyisinyathelo esifushane-ke ukubeka amagama emlonyeni kaNkulunkulu ngokuthi ngokuphendula izidingo nezidingo zeNhlangano senza imihlatshelo uJehova ayifunayo kithi.
Kepha uma uJehova engafunanga uJefta 'umnikelo wokushiswa' wendodakazi yakhe, umbono weNhlangano uyahamba. Nakhu okushiwo yi-akhawunti empeleni:
“Kepha inkosi yama-Amoni ayizange ilalele umlayezo uJefta awuthumela kuye. Umoya we-29 wehlela kuJefta, wadlula eGileyadi nakwaManase, waya eMispa laseGileyadi, wayesuka eMispa laseGileyadi waya kuma-Amoni. I-30 Khona-ke uJefta wenza isithembiso kuJehova wathi: “Uma uwanikela ama-Amoni esandleni sami, i-31 khona-ke noma ngubani ophuma emnyango wendlu yami ukuhlangana nami lapho ngibuya ngokuthula kuma-Amoni , ngiyonikela lowo ngomnikelo wokushiswa. ”(Jg 11: 28-31)
Umoya kaJehova wawusuvele ukuJefta. Wayengadingi ukwenza isifungo sakhe. Eqinisweni, uJesu uyakukhuthaza ukwenza izifungo, futhi siyazi ukuthi ungumfanekiso ophelele kaBaba, ngakho-ke singaqiniseka ukuthi uJehova uzizwa ngendlela efanayo futhi wayengafuni noma edinga isithembiso encekwini yakhe. (I-Mt 5: 33-36) Ukube uJefta wayengasidingi isiqinisekiso esengeziwe esamenza wenza lesi sithembiso kuNkulunkulu, ngabe ayikho isidingo sokuthi indodakazi yakhe idele amathuba ayo okushada nokuzala izingane. Ukuthi lesi sihloko sithi “uJefta nendodakazi yakhe eyesaba uNkulunkulu babeka ithemba labo futhi bathembele endleleni kaJehova yokwenza izinto, noma ngabe kwakunzima ukwenza lokho”, kunikeza isithombe sokuthi nguJehova obangele lesi simo. Iqiniso liwukuthi, uJefta wenza isifungo esingadingekile futhi ngenxa yalokho, waboshwa yiso.
Lingangcweliswa kanjani igama likaJehova uma sifundisa ukuthi konke lokhu bekuyindlela yakhe yokwenza izinto? Ngabe lokhu akuphikisani nezwi likaNkulunkulu elitholakala ku- IzAga 10: 22?
"Isibusiso sikaJehova-yiso esicebisayo, futhi akenezeli ubuhlungu kanye naso." (I-Pr 10: 22)
Ukuhlala Uthembekile Naphezu Kwezinkinga
Ngemuva kokwenza amaphuzu amaningi ngokuphila kukaJefta, lesi sihloko sidonsa isifundo esilandelayo:
“Ingabe sizovumela isibonelo sikaJefta ukuba sithinte izinhliziyo zethu? Mhlawumbe siye sathola ukudumazeka noma ukuphathwa kubi ngabazalwane abathile abangamaKristu. Uma kunjalo, akufanele sivumele izinselele ezinjalo zisivimbele ukuya emihlanganweni yobuKristu noma ukukhonza uJehova nokuba nebandla ngokugcwele. Silingisa uJefta, nathi singavumela izindinganiso zaphezulu ukuba zisisize sinqobe izimo ezingezinhle futhi siqhubeke singamandla okuhle. ”- Par. I-10
Umbhalo ongezansi ukhuluma ngokuhlala kukaJefta ethembekile naphezu kokuphoxeka. Uthembekile kubani? Enhlanganweni yasemhlabeni yakwa-Israyeli? Endikimbeni ebusayo yakwa-Israyeli? Noma kuJehova? Eqinisweni, abaholi noma isigungu esilawulayo bangaleso sikhathi babemphatha kabi futhi bembalekela, kepha lapho befika ngaphansi kwengcindezelo, kwakudingeka bakhothame kuye lapho eseba ngumholi wabo.
Uma sizothola isifundo kulokhu, lapho amaKristu eqiniso evinjelwa ukuhola kwesonto noma inhlangano yawo, akufanele afune ukuziphindisela noma abambe amagqubu, ngoba luyeza usuku lapho uJehova eyophakamisa abanjalo phezu kwalabo abacindezelwe zona, inqobo nje uma zihlala zithobekile futhi zihlala zithembekile kuYise naseNdodaneni yakhe egcotshiwe.
Lona kwakuwumyalezo womfanekiso kaJesu kaLazaru owawuthinta abafundi bakhe nendikimba ebusayo yakwa-Israyeli ngaleso sikhathi. Ngabe sicabanga ukuthi lesi simiso sesishintshile osukwini lwethu? Akunjalo, ngoba omunye umfanekiso ophathelene nokolweni nokhula ukhombisa ukuthi ukolweni uzokhula kanjani kanye nokhula, kodwa ekugcineni uyoqoqwa futhi “uzokhanya ngokukhazimulayo njengelanga.” (I-Mt 13: 43)
Ukuzidela Okuvumayo Kwembula Ukholo lwethu
Manje sifinyelela ku-crux yalolu cwaningo. Noma kunini INqabayokulinda iqhuba i-athikili ekhuluma ngesifungo sikaJefta, isetshenziswa njengesisekelo sokunxenxa oFakazi BakaJehova ukuba benze imihlatshelo efanayo. Izigaba 11 kuya ku-14 zikhombisa ukubaluleka kokugcina isithembiso uma sesenziwe, bese zithatha esibonelweni sikaJefta nendodakazi yakhe ukukhombisa ukuthi uJehova ukwamukela futhi akubusise kanjani ukulalela okunjalo.
Ngabe lokhu kuhlangene ngani namaKrestu? Ingabe uJesu akasitsheli yini ukuthi ukwenza izithembiso “kuvela komubi”? (I-Mt 5: 37) Impela uyakwenza, kepha uzokhumbula amasonto ambalwa nje emuva, sinezihloko ezikhuluma ngokubhapathizwa kwezingane lapho kuchazwa khona imfuneko ye-JW — imfuneko engekho emBhalweni efuna umuntu ngamunye ozobhapathizwa isithembiso sokuzinikela kuJehova.
Ukulinganisa ukucabanga kwabo ngale mfuneko yamanga, isigaba 15 siyaqhubeka:
“Lapho sinikezela ukuphila kwethu kuJehova, safunga ukuthi sizokwenza intando yakhe singanqikazi. Sasazi ukuthi ukufeza leso sithembiso kwakuyodinga ukuzidela. Kodwa-ke, ukuzimisela kwethu kufakwa ovivinyweni ikakhulukazi lapho sicelwa ukuba senze izinto ezingafani nokuthanda kwethu ekuqaleni. ”- Iziq. I-15
Ngubani osicela ukuba "senze izinto ebengingazithandi ekuqaleni"?
Isigaba lesi sibeka lesi sitatimende kusimo sesenzo, okushiyela kumfundi ukukhomba ukuthi “ngubani”. Ake sizame ukukufaka esikhathini esisebenzayo ukuze sibone ukuthi singakwazi yini ukubona ukuthi ngubani ngempela owenza lokho okubuzayo.
“Noma kunjalo, ukuzimisela kwethu kuvivinywa ikakhulukazi lapho Kubuza uJehova Senze izinto ezingafani nokuthanda kwethu ekuqaleni. ”(Par. 5)
UJehova, ngendodana yakhe, usicela ukuba sizimisele ukuhlazeka, ngisho nokufa, ngenkathi silingisa indodana yakhe ngokuthwala isigxobo sokuhlushwa esingokomfanekiso sokuphila kobuKristu. (I-Lu 9: 23-26; U-12: 2) Kodwa-ke, i-athikili ayikhulumi ngesicelo esenziwe nguNkulunkulu kuwo wonke amaKrestu, akunjalo? Kubukeka sengathi kubhekiswe kuzicelo ezithile, eziqonde kumuntu okuyiyo. Ingabe uJehova wake wakucela ukuba wenze okuthile? Ngicabanga ukuthi uma uNkulunkulu eza kuwe futhi ekucela ukuthi uthengise ikhaya lakho bese uyophayona, ubuzongena kulo, akunjalo? Kodwa ngokwazi kwami, akakaze abuze muntu ukuthi enze lokho.
Ngokusekelwe kulokho esizokuthola esigabeni 17, kubonakala sengathi ukuguquguquka kwesenzo esisebenzayo salo layini kufanele kufundeke:
“Kodwa-ke, ukuzimisela kwethu kuvivinywa ikakhulukazi lapho iNhlangano ibuza Senze izinto ezingafani nokuthanda kwethu ekuqaleni. ”(Par. 5)
Ake siwuhlukanise umusho nomusho, ukugomela ngokugomela.
“Izinkulungwane zamadoda nabesifazane abasebasha abangamaKristu bazidela ngokuzithandela emshadweni noma abanazo izingane — okungenani okwamanje — ukuze bakhonze uJehova ngokugcwele.” - Isigaba I-17a
Awukho umBhalo lapho uJehova noma uJesu bacela amaKristu ukuthi anikele ngethemba lokuthola izingane e-altare "lenkonzo ephelele" eya kuNkulunkulu. Iyini ngempela insizakalo egcwele? Kushiwo lokho oFakazi abakubiza ngokuthi 'inkonzo yesikhathi esigcwele' okusho ukuphayona, ukusebenza eBethel, noma omunye umsebenzi onjengomsebenzi wokwakha wamazwe omhlaba lapho bakhonza khona izidingo zeNhlangano. Kumelwe sikhumbule ukuthi ukuphayona akuyona imfuneko engokomBhalo, futhi ukunikela amahora anqunyelwe kusengaphambili emsebenzini wokushumayela akuyona into uJehova athi masiyenze. IBhayibheli liyasho ukuthi abanye “banesipho” sokuhlala bengashadile ngenxa yeNkosi, kepha lokhu akubonwa njengomhlatshelo. UJesu akasiceli ukuthi sihlale singashadile ukuze simjabulise kangcono. (I-Mt 19: 11, 12)
“Nabantu asebekhulile kungenzeka badela isikhathi abebengasisebenzisa nezingane zabo nabazukulu babo ukuze basebenze emisebenzini yokwakha engokwasezulwini noma baye eSikoleni Sabashumayeli Bevangeli LoMbuso futhi bakhonze ezindaweni ezinesidingo esikhulu sabamemezeli boMbuso.” - Isigaba I-17b
I-Assertion 17b ibuye ihlambalaze igama likaNkulunkulu, ngokusikisela ukuthi ukudela ubudlelwane bethu obuyigugu nezingane nabazukulu ukuze sikwazi ukuya kwesinye sezikole ze-JW.org noma ukwakha ihhovisi legatsha noma indawo yokuhumusha kuyinto ejabulisa uNkulunkulu. Ngabe uJehova usicela ukuba sinikele njengomhlatshelo wokushiswa isikhathi esingenakubuyiseka esinaso sokubopha futhi sifundise izingane zethu nabazukulu?
Ngazi ngabathile abacelwa ukuthi basize ngokwakhiwa kwamazwe omhlaba, noma ekwakhiweni kwamagatsha ezweni labo. Abanye bayeka imisebenzi, bathengisa amakhaya, bathatha izimpande bathutha, badela ukuzinza ngokwezimali kulokho ababekubheka njengokukhonza uNkulunkulu. Benza lokho ababetshelwe ukuthi uJehova ubacela ukuba bakwenze. Ngemuva kwalokho amaphrojekthi wokwakha amiswa okwesikhashana. Asikho isizathu esanikezwa. Abantu abanjalo babephatheke kabi futhi bexakekile ukuthi kungani izinto zingahambi. Babazi ukuthi ukubona kusengaphambili namandla kaJehova kwenza ukwehluleka kube yinto engenakwenzeka, kepha imisebenzi yehlulekile, izimpilo zabantu zaphazanyiswa.
Njengoba sesibonile, ”Isibusiso sikaJehova — yiso esicebisayo, futhi akenezeli ubuhlungu kanye naso.” (I-Pr 10: 22) Ukuthi uJehova ufuna izinceku ezithembekile ukuba zizidele ngaleyo ndlela kuletha isihlamba egameni lakhe lapho imisebenzi ingaphumeleli.
Abanye babekela eceleni izindaba zabo ukuze bahlanganyele emikhankasweni yenkonzo ngenkathi yeSikhumbuzo. ” - Isigaba I-17c
Njengoba sengisebenze ngokwami kule mikhankaso, ngiyazi ukuthi singabantu nje beposi kuphela abajikelezayo. Lokhu kubiza isikhathi nesikhathi nophethiloli futhi kuzosebenza kangcono ukudlulisa lo msebenzi kusevisi yeposi. Yize kunjalo, ukwethula lokhu njengomhlatshelo womuntu uqobo uJehova awufuna kithi kusho nokuthi futhi uJehova ufuna ukuthi isikhumbuzo sisetshenziswe njengomkhankaso wokuqasha.
Ukukhunjulwa kweSidlo SeNkosi Sakusihlwa akukaze kwethulwe eBhayibhelini njengethuluzi lokuqasha. AmaKristu ekhulu lokuqala awazange aye ezimakethe ukuyomema bonke futhi bazosiza esidlweni sabo. Isikhumbuzo bekuyinto yangasese, into ebekelwe abafowabo bakaKristu, umakoti kaKristu.
Inkonzo enjalo yenhliziyo yonke iletha injabulo ejulile kuJehova, ongasoze awukhohlwa umsebenzi wabo nothando abalubonisiwe ngaye. ” - Indima. 17d
Siyacelwa ukuba sizidele ngokuguqula impilo yethu — sinikele ngomshado, izingane, noma isikhathi esibalulekile namalungu omndeni — ngoba lokhu kuletha “injabulo ejulile” kuJehova. Sibuthola kuphi ubufakazi besitatimende esinjalo?
“Kungenzeka yini ngawe ukuba uzidele ngokwengeziwe ukuze ukhonze uJehova ngokugcwele?” - Indima. 17e
Futhi manje, emva kwakho konke lokhu, sicelwa ukuba sizidele kakhulu.
Ngabe kukhona uJehova angakusho ngalokhu, ngokunikela ngeminikelo yomKrestu? Ngempela uyakwenza.
“. . .nale ukumthanda ngenhliziyo yakho yonke nangokuqonda komuntu konke nangamandla akho onke nalomuntu othanda umakhelwane wakho njengoba uzithanda wena ubaluleke kakhulu kunayo yonke iminikelo yokushiswa ephelele nemihlatshelo... . ”(UMnu 12: 33)
“. . .Hamba, bese ufunda ukuthi kusho ukuthini lokhu: 'Ngifuna isihe, hhayi umhlatshelo.' Ngoba ngize ukubiza, hhayi abantu abalungile, kodwa izoni. ”I-Mt 9: 13)
Izifundo
Singavuma ngenhliziyo yonke nezigaba ezimbili zokugcina:
“Yize impilo kaJefta yayigcwele izinselelo, wavumela ukucabanga kukaJehova ukuba kuqondise izinqumo zakhe empilweni. Wenqaba amathonya ezwe ayemzungezile. ”- Par. I-18
NjengoJefta, masivumele ukucabanga kukaJehova — hhayi okwabantu — kuqondise izinqumo zethu ekuphileni. UJefta wenqaba amathonya omhlaba. (NgesiGreki: yonke; ebhekise kubantu) Izwe elalizungeze uJefta kwakuyisizwe sakwa-Israyeli.
Uyini umhlaba ozungeze oFakazi BakaJehova? Yikuphi ukucindezela kontanga okuthinta oFakazi BakaJehova? Yithonya likabani okumelwe simelane nalo?
“Ukudumazeka okukhulu okubangelwa abanye kwehluleka ukwenza buthaka ukuzimisela kwakhe ukuhlala ethembekile. Ukuzinikela kwakhe ngokuzithandela kanye nokwendodakazi yakhe kwaholela ezibusisweni, ngoba uJehova wazisebenzisa zombili ukuthuthukisa ukukhulekelwa okumsulwa. Ngesikhathi lapho abanye belahla izindinganiso zikaNkulunkulu, uJefta nendodakazi yakhe banamathela kubo. ”- U-Par. I-18
Ukudana okubuhlungu okuqhamuka ekukhapheleni abantu ebesibathembile akumele kusenze sishiye uJehova, siwele ekungakholelweni kuNkulunkulu njengoba abaningi babafowethu nodadewethu sebenzile. Manje sinethuba lokuthuthukisa ukukhulekela okumsulwa ngesikhathi lapho oFakazi BakaJehova abaningi belahla izindinganiso zaphezulu ngokudela onembeza babo e-altare lokulalela abantu ngokungaboni.
"IBhayibheli lisinxusa ukuba" sibe ngabalingisi balabo abathi ngokukholwa nangokubekezela bazuze ifa lezithembiso. "(Heb. 6: 12) Kwangathi singaba njengoJefta nendodakazi yakhe ngokuphila ngeqiniso eliyisisekelo eliqokomiswa izimpilo zabo: Ukuthembeka kuholela ekwamukelweni nguNkulunkulu. ”- Umq. I-19
Inhlangano yosuku lwakhe yazama ukubeka uJefta phansi, kepha wahlala ethembekile kuNkulunkulu. Akazange akhothamele ukucindezela kontanga, noma azivumele ukuthi alalele abantu phezu kukaNkulunkulu. Wathola ukuvunyelwa uNkulunkulu nomvuzo wokukhuthazela ngokwethembeka okunjalo. Yeka isibonelo esihle kithi!

I-1 Tim 4: 3
Bayenqabela abantu ukuthi bashade futhi babayale ukuba badle ukudla okuthile, uNkulunkulu akudalile ukuba kwamukelwe ngokubonga yilabo abakholwayo nabaziyo iqiniso.

I-8 Uphendule wathi: “Qaphelani ukuthi anikhohlisiwe. Ngoba abaningi bayoza ngegama lami, bethi, 'nginguye,' futhi, 'Isikhathi siseduze.' Ungabalandeli. I-9 Lapho uzwa ngezimpi nokuvuka, ungesabi. Lezi zinto kufanele zenzeke kuqala, kepha ukuphela akuyikufika khona lapho. ”
