“Ungavumeli Izandla Zakho Ziwe”

[Kusuka ku-ws9 / 16 p. I-3 Okthoba 24-30]

“Ungavumeli izandla zakho zehle.” -I-Zep 3: 16

Isifundo sethu kuleli sonto siqala ngale akhawunti yomuntu siqu:

USISTER oyiphayona elivamile futhi oshadile kumdala, uthi: “Yize ngigcina isimiso esihle sezinto ezingokomoya, ngiye ngalwa nokukhathazeka iminyaka eminingi. Kuyangiphuca ubuthongo, kuthinta impilo yami, kuthinte nendlela engiphatha ngayo abanye, futhi kwesinye isikhathi kungenza ngifune ukuyeka futhi ngikhambe ngigibele. ” - isig. I-1

Njengoba ngangiphinde ngibe yiphayona elivamile nelikhethekile nomdala uqobo, ngangicabanga ukuthi “inqubo yakhe enhle engokomoya” yayihilela umsebenzi wasensimini ukuze ahlangane nesilinganiso sakhe sehora, afunde itekisi losuku, afunde izincwadi zilungiselela emihlanganweni yebandla nemikhulu, ukuya kuyo yonke imihlangano, nokuthandaza njalo kuJehova uNkulunkulu.

Inhlangano ifundisa ukuthi “inqubo enhle engokomoya” ifaka okulandelayo:

Sibuye siqine ngemfundo yaphezulu emihlanganweni yethu yobuKristu, emihlanganweni emincane nemikhulu, nasezikoleni zethu ezingokwasezulwini. Lokho kuqeqeshwa kungasisiza ukuba sibe nesisusa esifanele, ukubeka imigomo engokomoya, kanye nokwenza imisebenzi yethu eminingi yobuKristu. (IHu. 119: 32) Ngabe ufisa ukuthola amandla kulolo hlobo lwemfundo? - isig. I-11

Asilindeli ukuthi uJehova asenzele izimangaliso. Esikhundleni salokho, kufanele senze ingxenye yethu. Lokho kufaka ukufunda kwethu iZwi likaNkulunkulu nsuku zonke, ukulungiselela nokuya emihlanganweni masonto onke, sondla izingqondo nezinhliziyo zethu ngesifundo somuntu siqu nokukhulekela komkhaya, futhi njalo ukuthembela kuJehova ngomkhuleko. - isig. I-12

Konke lokhu kuzwakala kukuhle, kuyindlela enhle yokulondoloza ingokomoya lomuntu. Akukho lutho olungalungile ngomthandazo kanye nesifundo seBhayibheli somuntu siqu sasikhathi sonke. Ukuhlangana namanye amaKristu kuyisibopho seBhayibheli. Ukuzibekela imigomo engokomoya kuhle uma nje kungokoqobo futhi kuhambisana nentando kaNkulunkulu. Umbuzo uthi, ngubani onqumayo ukuthi kuyini kukho konke lokhu? Umfundi ojwayelekile we INqabayokulinda uzoqonda ukuthi izinhloso nezibopho okukhulunywa ngazo zichazwa yiNhlangano. Okuqukethwe yimihlangano kulawulwa ubuholi beNhlangano. Isikhuthazo sokuhlanganyela esifundweni seBhayibheli esijwayelekile singaphansi kwesimo sokuthi umuntu ukwenza lokho esebenzisa izincwadi zeNhlangano kuphela.

Ingabe lokhu kuhle noma kubi? Ngabe kuyahambisana nokufundiswa nguNkulunkulu noma cha? Sifundiswa ukwahlulela hhayi ngokushiwo ngabantu, kodwa ngemiphumela eveliswa imfundiso yabo.

“Ngokufanayo yonke imithi emihle ithela izithelo ezinhle, kodwa yonke imithi ebolile ithela izithelo ezingenamsebenzi. . . ” (I-Mt 7: 17)

Isigaba 2 siveza ukuthi ukukhathazeka udadewethu ayekuzwa kwavela ezingcindezini zangaphandle ezinjengokuthi 'ukushona kothandekayo, ukugula okunzima, izikhathi ezinzima zezomnotho, noma ukubhekana nokuphikiswa njengofakazi.' Lo mbhalo awuchazi imbangela yokukhathazeka kwalo dade, kepha yilokhu okugxile kule ndatshana. Ngaphansi kwesihlokwana esithi, “Isandla SikaJehova Asisifushane Ukuba Sikwazi Ukusindisa”, sinikezwa izibonelo ezintathu ezivela ezikhathini zamaHeberu (akukho lutho lwangezikhathi zobuKristu) lapho ama-Israyeli ahlaselwa khona ngamabutho angaphandle futhi asindiswa ngesandla sikaNkulunkulu. (Bheka izigaba 5 kuya ku-9) Ngabe lezi zibonelo zingamelana nezidingo zomhlaba wonke zezigidi zoFakazi BakaJehova ezilwela ukufeza izinhloso nezibopho zeNhlangano? Ingabe imbangela yokukhathazeka koFakazi, ukuhlaselwa ama-Amaleki anamuhla, amaTopiya noma amazwe aphikisayo?

Ngikhuluma ngokuhlangenwe nakho kwami ​​kanye nokuzibonela kwami ​​njengomdala weminyaka engamashumi amane, ngingafakazela iqiniso lokuthi iningi loFakazi abakhathazekile abazizwayo lisukela “enkambisweni engokomoya” impela okumele ibe ngumthombo wabo wamandla. Umthwalo obekwa kubafowethu nodadewethu abashisekayo nabanezinhloso ezinhle njengoba bezama ukufeza “imigomo yabo engokomoya” ebekiwe ngaphambili futhi “befeza izibopho zabo eziningi zobuKristu” kuvame ukuletha umthwalo ocindezelayo. Ukwehluleka ukuhlangabezana nalezi zibopho ezibekwe ngumuntu kuholela emizweni yecala eyephuca injabulo umuntu okufanele abe nayo ngokunikela uNkulunkulu inkonzo engcwele.

AbaFarisi baziwa ngokulayisha abantu ngemithwalo engadingekile futhi engqubuzana nemiBhalo.

"Babopha imithwalo esindayo bayibeke emahlombe abantu, kepha bona abazimisele ukuyihlikihla ngomunwe." (I-Mt 23: 4)

Ngakolunye uhlangothi, uJesu wathembisa ukuthi umthwalo wakhe uzobekezeleka kalula kubo bonke, hhayi nje labo abaziqhayisa ngokuqina okungajwayelekile.

“Bekani ijoka lami phezu kwenu nifunde kimi, ngoba nginomoya omnene futhi ngithobekile ngenhliziyo, nizotholela imiphefumulo yenu ukuqabuleka. ³⁰ Ngoba ijoka lami ngelomusa nomthwalo wami ulula. ”(I-Mt 11: 29, 30)

“Unomoya omnene futhi uthobekile ngenhliziyo”. Manje yilolo hlobo lukamalusi — yilolo hlobo lomholi — sonke esingasala ngemuva. Ukuthwala umthwalo wakhe kungukuqabuleka komphefumulo wethu.

Ngikhumbula umuzwa ebesingaba nawo njengabadala kulandela ukuhambela kombonisi wesifunda okwenziwa unyaka nonyaka. “Izikhumbuzo zothando” zenhlangano zazivame ukusishiya sidangele, sinomuzwa wokuthi besingakwenzi ngokwanele. Ukwelusa kwakudingeka futhi sonke sabona ukuthi njengengxenye ebalulekile yomsebenzi wethu njengababonisi bomhlambi, nokho kwakuvame ukuba yinto enganakwa kakhulu. Kwakunesikhathi, emashumini amaningi eminyaka emuva, lapho umdala ayevunyelwe ukubala isikhathi asichitha ekwaluseni ebheke esikhathini senkonzo yasensimini okwakufanele asibike. Emuva ngaleso sikhathi sasinezilinganiso ezinzima. Uma inkumbulo isebenza, wonke ummemezeli bekulindeleke ukuthi achithe amahora ayi-12 ngenyanga emsebenzini wokushumayela, ahambise omagazini abayi-12 noma ngaphezulu, abike ama-Back Call (manje abizwa ngokuthi “Return Returnits”) noma aqhube isifundo seBhayibheli esingu-6. Lezo zilinganiso zehliswe ngokusemthethweni ngeminyaka yama-1s, zashintshwa kuphela ngo-a de facto standard. Abadala manje kulindeleke ukuba babike insimu engaphezu kwesilinganiso sebandla. Ngakho-ke, akukho lutho olushintshile. Eqinisweni, izinto ziye zaba zimbi kakhulu ngoba kunezidingo eziningi kakhulu ezibekwe ezinsukwini zabadala maqondana nokunakekela izibopho zokuphatha zenhlangano.

Ngikhumbula ngizwa izikhonzi zaseBethel zisho ukuthi zimatasa kangakanani. Babe nesikhathi esincane kangakanani. Kwangihlekisa. Babevuka ekuseni badle isidlo sasekuseni esilungisiwe. Bese behamba ngezinyawo beya emsebenzini. Bebezoba nekhefu eligcwele lehora lesidlo sasemini, baphinde badle ukudla abalungiselelwe omunye umuntu. Bese behamba beya emakhaya beya ezindaweni zokuhlala ebezihlanzelwe bona ngabasebenzi. Izingubo zabo beziyogezelwa bona, amasudi abo namashethi bacindezelwe elondolo. Uma izimoto zabo bezidinga ukulungiswa, isitolo esikuzo sasikunakekela lokho. Baze baba nesitolo sabo esikahle esizeni.[i]

Umdala ojwayelekile ongeyena waseBethel uchitha i-8 ukuze 9 amahora emsebenzini nelinye ihora noma amathathu okushayela ngokucindezelayo eya noma ebuya emsebenzini wakhe. Iningi linabafazi abasebenzayo ngoba ayikho indlela yokuziphilisa kulezi zinsuku emindenini eminingi ngaphandle kwalapho behola kabili. Ngesikhathi esisele, kufanele banakekele izidingo zezingane zabo, bathenge, balungise izinto endlini, bahlambe izingubo, bapheke konke ukudla, baqiniseke ukuthi imoto isebenza kahle, futhi banakekele izinkulungwane eminye imisebenzi eyingxenye yempilo kulesi simiso sezinto. Ngaphezu kwakho konke lokho, namandla asele, kulindeleke ukuthi babekhona futhi balungiselele imihlangano emihlanu ngesonto (ebanjwa ngamaqoqo amabili) evame ukuqhuba izingxenye ezithile. Kumele futhi bagcine izinga lamahora aphezulu kunesilinganiso emsebenzini wokushumayela noma bazosuswa esikhundleni sabo sokwengamela. Kuhlala kunemihlangano yabadala okumele ibe khona, imikhankaso ehlelwayo, imihlangano yesifunda neyesifunda ukuxhasa nganoma iziphi izindlela. Banikezwa izibopho eziningi zokuphatha zenhlangano ukubhekana nazo kubandakanya ukufunda izincwadi zomphakathi nokulandela leyo nkomba. Vele, kukhona nezindaba zokwahlulela ezivelayo. Ngokuvamile, uma kunesikhathi sokwelusa, umdala ukhathele kakhulu ukuba angakusebenzisa.

Kuyamangaza yini ukuthi ukukhathazeka nokucindezela kuyinkinga evamile eNhlanganweni?

Kungani umKristu oqotho angayamukela imithwalo enjalo? Impendulo itholakala ku-athikili:

Sizoxoxa ngezibonelo ezintathu ezivelele eziseBhayibhelini ezibonisa isifiso sikaJehova namandla akhe okuqinisa abantu bakhe ukwenza intando yakhe naphezu kobunzima obubonakala bunamandla amakhulu. - isig. I-5

Yimuphi umKristu oqotho nothembekile ongafuni ukwenza intando kaNkulunkulu? Kodwa-ke, isisekelo esidala konke ukucindezeleka ukuqonda ukuthi ukwenza konke iNdikimba Ebusayo ebayala ukuba bakwenze kufana nokwenza intando kaJehova. Akubona abadala kuphela abahlupheka ngaphansi kwalomthwalo. Amaphayona asebenza ngokuhambisana nenani lamahora avinjelwe iNdikimba Ebusayo njengendlela yokukhombisa uNkulunkulu ukuthi enza intando yakhe futhi uyamjabulisa. Kungani bengacabanga ukuthi izindinganiso ezisethwe ngaphambilini ezibekwe ngabantu zivela kuNkulunkulu ngempela?

Kungenxa yezitatimende ezinjengokulandelayo:

Cabanga futhi, ngokudla okungokomoya okusekelwe eBhayibhelini esikuthola inyanga nenyanga. Amagama UZakariya 8: 9, 13 (funda) kwakhulunywa ngenkathi ithempeli laseJerusalema lalakhiwa kabusha, futhi lawo mazwi afanele kakhulu ngathi. - isig. I-10

Ukudla kwethu okungokomoya okunikezwa ngezincwadi kufaniswa namazwi omprofethi uZakariya akhulunywa ngenkathi ithempeli lalakhiwa kabusha? Umfundi uyalelwa ukuba afunde futhi azindle ngakho UZakariya 8: 9

““ Yilokhu uJehova wamabutho akushilo, 'Izandla zakho maziqine, wena manje owezwa lawa mazwi aphuma emlonyeni wabaprofethi, lawo mazwi ayekhulunywa ngosuku okwabekwa ngalo isisekelo sendlu kaJehova wamabutho ukuze kwakhiwe ithempeli. ”(I-Zec 8: 9)

Ngakho-ke ngenkathi yonke “imigomo engokomoya” kanye “nemithwalo yemfanelo yobuKristu” ebekwe yiNhlangano ingatholakali eBhayibhelini, singacabanga ngayo njengokuqhamuka emilonyeni yabaprofethi banamuhla njengoba kwenzeka ngesikhathi sikaZakariya. Lokho uZakariya akukhuluma ngaleso sikhathi kwakusuka emlonyeni kaNkulunkulu. Ngokunjalo, “ukudla okungokomoya okususelwa eBhayibhelini esikuthola inyanga nenyanga” nakho kuvela emlonyeni kaNkulunkulu.

Yiqiniso, uZakariya wayengumprofethi kaNkulunkulu. Akukaze kudingeke ukuthi ashintshe into ayishilo, ethi wakuthola kungalungile. Akuzange kudingeke ukuthi ahlehlise noma ashiye inqubomgomo ngokuthethelela iphutha lakhe njengomphumela wokungapheleli komuntu futhi athi ukukhanya manje sekumkhanyisele futhi wayebona izinto ngokucace kakhudlwana. Lapho ethi okuthile kwakuyizwi likaNkulunkulu, kwakuyiqiniso, ngoba wayengumprofethi ophefumulelwe kaSomandla.

Umzila Wangempela Wokomoya

Isimiso esihle sokomoya kufanele sihlanganise nomthandazo. UPawulu wasitshela ukuthi "sithandaze singaphezi". Kepha kumongo waleso seluleko, uphinde wasitshela ukuthi "sijabule njalo". Vumela la magama akuqondise ekugcineni isimiso esihle sokomoya:

“Jabulani ngaso sonke isikhathi. ¹⁷ Thandaza njalo. ¹⁸ Bongani ngakho konke. Lokhu kuyintando kaNkulunkulu ngawe kuKristu Jesu. ¹⁹ Ungawucimi umlilo womoya. ²⁰ Ungaziphathi ngokwedelela iziprofetho. ²¹ Qiniseka ngazo zonke izinto; bambelela kokuhle. ²² Dedani kuzo zonke izinhlobo zobubi. ”(I-1Th 5: 16-22)

Mhlawumbe “okujwayelekile” akulona igama elingcono kakhulu lokuchaza lokhu. Ingokomoya lethu kufanele libe yingxenye yethu njengokuphefumula nokushaya kwenhliziyo yethu.

Kuthiwani ngokutadisha iBhayibheli? Ingabe kufanele sihlanganyele kuyo njalo? Kunjalo. Ngomkhuleko, sikhuluma noBaba wethu, futhi ngokufunda izwi lakhe, uyasiphendula. Ngakho-ke, umoya wakhe usiholela kulo lonke iqiniso. (John 16: 13) Ungavumeli izimfundiso zabantu ziphazamise lokho. Uma ukhuluma nobaba wakho ongumuntu, ingabe umuntu wesithathu ungena phakathi achaze ukuthi uthini ubaba wakho? Lokhu akusho ukuthi asinakufunda kwabanye abenze ucwaningo, kepha thatha konke okushiwoyo ukukuhlole njengoba uPawule esitshela ukuba sikwenze ngaphezulu: “Qinisekani ngazo zonke izinto; bambelela kokuhle. "

Ukubambelela kokuhle kusho ukuthi silahla okungalungile.

Akumelwe sikhohliswe uhlobo lokuzinikela kokuhlonipha uNkulunkulu olubonakala lwamukeleka, kodwa olususelwa ezimfundisweni eziyiphutha zabantu.

AmaJuda osuku lukaJesu ayezibheka njengabakhethiweyo bakaNkulunkulu kanti empeleni babenjalo, kepha base bezophenduka abalahliweyo bakaNkulunkulu. Ukuzinikela kwabo kwakusekelwe ekuqondeni okungamanga kwesikhundla sabo phambi kukaNkulunkulu; ukuqonda abakuthola kubaholi babo benkolo.

UJesu wathi:

“Kungakho ngikhuluma kubo ngisebenzisa imifanekiso, ngoba, uma bebheka, babheka ngeze, futhi bezwa, bezwa ngeze, futhi abawutholi umqondo wako; ¹⁴ futhi isiprofetho sika-Isaya siyagcwaliseka kubo, esithi, 'Ngokuzwa, niyokuzwa kodwa anizukuthola ukuqonda; futhi, ukubheka, nizobheka kodwa anisoze nibone. ¹⁵ Ngoba inhliziyo yalaba bantu iye yaba lukhuni, futhi ngezindlebe zabo bezwe bengaphendulanga, futhi bavale amehlo abo; ukuze bangaphinde babone ngamehlo abo futhi bezwe ngezindlebe zabo futhi bakwazi ukukuqonda ngezinhliziyo zabo babuye emuva, ngibaphulukise. ' ¹⁶ “Nokho, ayajabula amehlo akho ngoba ayabona, nezindlebe zakho ngoba ziyezwa. ¹⁷ Ngoba ngiqinisile ngithi kini, Iningi labaprofethi nabantu abalungile babefisa ukubona izinto enizibonayo kodwa abazibonanga, futhi nokuzwa izinto enizizwayo kodwa abazizwanga. ¹⁸ “Nina-ke, lalelani umfanekiso womuntu owahlwanyelayo. ¹⁹ Lapho noma ubani ezwa izwi lombuso kodwa angawutholi umqondo walo, omubi uyeza ahlwithe lokho okuhlwanyelwe enhliziyweni yakhe; nguyena ohlwanyelwe eceleni komgwaqo. ”(I-Mt 13: 13-19)

Uke walizwa “izwi loMbuso” weqiniso futhi wawuthola umqondo walo? Umlayezo wezindaba ezinhle zoMbuso owafundiswa nguJesu wawuthi bonke ababeka ukholo egameni lakhe bazothola igunya lokuba ngabantwana bakaNkulunkulu. (John 1: 12; Roma 8: 12-17) Lona umyalezo okufanele siwushumayele. Lona akuwona umyalezo iNhlangano edudula oFakazi abayizigidi eziyisishiyagalombili ukuba bawushumayele. Kukhona umyalezo wokuthi okungathenjelwa kakhulu kithi ukuba ngabangane bakaNkulunkulu futhi siphile njengezoni iminyaka eyinkulungwane, bese kuphela sithola ukuphelela.

Kuyamangaza ukuthi, lokhu INqabayokulinda ifundisa ukuthi uSathane uzama ukuvimba oFakazi ukuthi bangawushumayeli lo mlayezo.

Singaqiniseka ukuthi uDeveli akasoze avumela izandla zakhe ukuba zehle emzamweni wakhe wokumisa imisebenzi yethu yobuKristu. Usebenzisa amanga nokusongela okuvela kohulumeni, abaholi benkolo kanye nezihlubuki. Uyini umgomo wakhe? Kungenxa yokwenza izandla zethu zixegise emsebenzini wokushumayela izindaba ezinhle zoMbuso. - isig. I-10

Ingabe labo okuthiwa izihlubuki bashushisa oFakazi noma ingabe lokho kuyiqiniso? Labo bethu abavame ukungena kule sayithi bafisa kuphela ukuhlanganyela ithemba elimangalisayo nabanye lokuthi uNkulunkulu usibiza ukuthi sibe ngabantwana bakhe bokutholwa. (I-1Th 2: 11-12; I-1Pe 1: 14-15; IGa 4: 4-5) Noma kunjalo, asikwazi ukukwenza lokhu ngokukhululeka, kepha kufanele sisebenze sengathi sivinjelwe. Sizoshushiswa ngenxa yokukhuluma iqiniso. Ukushumayeza abangane bethu abaningi namalungu omndeni wakho emphakathini we-JW kufanele sisebenzise iseluleko sikaJesu ukuze senze ukushumayela kwethu ngasese ngendlela ephumelelayo. (I-Mt 10: 16; I-Mt 7: 6; I-Mt 10: 32-39) Noma kunjalo, ngezinye izikhathi siyatholakala bese sisongelwa ngokuxoshwa.

Njengakwezinye izindatshana eziningi esizibukeza, inayo isicelo, kepha hhayi ngendlela umlobi ayehlose ngayo.

QAPHELA: Lapha sinenye futhi indatshana lapho kubhekiswa khona uJehova (izikhathi ezingama-29) ukukhishwa okuphelele kweNkosi yethu uJesu, okunguyena uBaba wethu uJehova athi usisekele. (I-Mt 28: 20; 2Co 12: 8-10; I-Eph 6: 10; I-1Ti 1: 12)
