Khonza uJehova, uNkulunkulu Wenkululeko

[Kusuka ku-ws4 / 18 p. 8 - Juni 11-17]

“Lapho kunomoya kaJehova khona, kukhona inkululeko.” 2 Khorinte 3:17

Masikhumbuze kafushane ngombhalo wesihloko seviki eledlule. Bekuyi "Uma iNdodana inikhulula, niyokhululeka ngempela. (UJohn 8: 36) ”

Ngakho-ke sidinga ukubuza umbuzo, kungani ushintsho olungazelelwe lokugcizelela kusuka kuJesu kuya kuJehova maqondana nenkululeko? Esinye sezizathu sibonakala njengokufakwa esikhundleni okugcwele kuTestamente Elisha ku-NWT elithi “Lord” ngu “Jehova”, imvamisa ngaphandle kokubheka umongo. Uma ufunda eyesi-2 kwabaseKorinte 3 uzobona ukuthi uPawulu lapha ukhuluma ngoKristu noMoya. Eqinisweni, eyesi-2 kwabaseKorinte 3: 14-15 ithi “Kepha amandla abo engqondo afiphala. Ngoba kuze kube lamuhla isembozo lesi sihlala singafinyelelwanga ekufundweni kwesivumelwano esidala, ngoba saphela ngoKristu. Empeleni, kuze kube namuhla noma nini lapho kufundwa uMose, indwangu isembozo isezinhliziyweni zabo. ”

Ngakho lapho amavesi 16 kuya ku-18 ethi - “Kepha lapho kuphendukela eNkosini, indwangu iyasuswa. INkosi inguMoya; futhi lapho kukhona umoya weNkosi, kukhona inkululeko. Futhi sonke, ngenkathi thina ngobuso bethu obungagutshuzelwe sibonakalisa njengezibuko inkazimulo yeNkosi, siguqulwa sibe ngumfanekiso ofanayo sisuka enkazimulweni siye enkazimulweni, njengoba nje kwenziwa nguMoya weNkosi. ”- kunengqondo futhi kuvumelana nomongo wenkazimulo yeNkosi. amavesi wangaphambili kanye noJohane 8:38. Yileyo ndlela izinguqulo ezingama-25 kwezingu-26 ezihumusha ngayo lezi ziqephu njengoba zifundwa ku-Biblehub.com (okuhlukile yi-Aramaic Version ku-Living English). Uma ubheka ku-NWT yakho nokho nangombhalo oyisihloko waleli sonto uzothola “uJehova” esikhundleni sika “Nkosi” ongaqondakali kokuqukethwe futhi ongavumelani noJohn 8.

Le nhlangano inikeza izizathu zokuthi kungani basebenzise igama elithi “Lord” esikhundleni sika “Jehova” futhi yize kwezinye izindawo kukwenza kucace umbhalo, iqiniso lihlala likhona bayawushintsha umbhalo weBhayibheli. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ngenxa yokuthatha kwabo indlela enhle yokuthatha indawo yokufaka u- “Lord” ngokuthi “Jehova”, inani lezindawo abaphetha ngazo empeleni beshintsha okushiwo umbhalo, lidlula kakhulu lelo vesi ezimbalwa elingabonakala licace ngokufakwa kwalo .

Lokhu kusho ukuthi ngaphambi kokucaphuna i-2 Korion 3: 17, lapho indatshana ithi esigabeni 2 ukuthi, "UPawulu waqondisa abakholwa kanye naye eMthonjeni wenkululeko yangempela ” abese eqhubeka nokukhombisa ukuthi "umthombo wenkululeko yangempela ” nguJehova, iyabadida abafundi bayo, ikakhulukazi uma kubhekwa ukuthi umbhalo oyisihloko osendabeni yokufunda yesonto eledlule ukhombise ngokusobala ukuthi uJesu ungumthombo wenkululeko yangempela.

Kuleli qophelo abanye bangaphikisana nokuthi sihamba ngezinyawo. Kakade, uJehova unguNkulunkulu uMninimandla onke, ngakho ekugcineni ungumthombo wenkululeko yangempela. Lokho kuyiqiniso, kodwa ngesibonakaliso esifanayo ngaphandle kukaJesu ngokunikela ngempilo yakhe njengomhlatshelo wesihlengo bekungeke kube khona ithemba lokukhululeka emiphumeleni yesono, ukungapheleli nokufa. Ukugxila kweningi leTestamente Elisha kumayelana nokuphila kukaJesu, izimfundiso zakhe nokuthi ungazuza kanjani emhlatshelweni wakhe wesihlengo. Ngakho-ke ngokugxila kuJehova, inhlangano iphinde isuse ukugxila kuJesu okunguyena kanye uJehova afuna sigxile kuye!

Uyacelwa ukuthi ubheke lemibhalo elandelayo ngokuvuselela inkumbulo yakho kuleyo yamaRoma 8: 1-21 kanye noJohn 8: 31-36 okuxoxwe ngawo ngeledlule:

• KwabaseGalathiya 5: 1 "Ngaleyo nkululeko, uKristu wasikhulula." (Lapha uPawulu wayexoxa ngokukhululwa eMthethweni KaMose ogcizelela isimo sesono sesintu nesidingo saso sokuhlengwa.)
• KwabaseGalathiya 2: 4 "bazalwane bamanga ... abangena ngokukhohlisa ukuthola inkululeko yethu ebunyeni kuKristu Jesu" (umongo walesi sahluko uxoxa ngokuthi kuthiwe ulungile ngokukholwa kuKristu Jesu kunokuba ziboshwe (izigqila) zemisebenzi Umthetho KaMose)
• KwabaseRoma 3: 23,24 "Ngoba bonke bonile futhi bayasilela enkazimulweni kaNkulunkulu, futhi kuyisipho samahhala ukuthi kuthiwe balungile ngomusa wakhe ongafanelwe ngokukhululwa ngesihlengo esakhokhwa nguKristu Jesu." (Isihlengo zikaJesu wazenza zikwaziwa ukuthi zilungile)

Kodwa-ke, naphezu kokucwaninga okuningi kwemiBhalo, akubonakali kungenakwenzeka ukuthola omunye umbhalo osekela umbono wenhlangano wokuthi uJehova ungumthombo wenkululeko okukhulunywa ngayo ku2 Korion 3.[i]

Isihloko sithi “Kodwa, uPaul wachaza, 'lapho umuntu ephendukela kuJehova, umgubuzelo uyasuswa.' (2 Korinte 3:16) Asho ukuthini amazwi kaPawulu? ” (isig. 3)

Ukufunda eyesi-2 kwabaseKorinte 3: 7-15 (ingqikithi) kuyasiza kakhulu ekuqondeni ukuthi 'amagama kaPawulu asho ukuthini'. Uzokuqaphela lokho 2 Abakorinte I-3: I-7,13,14 ikhombisa ukuthi uMose wafaka iveli ngoba ama-Israyeli akakwazanga ukubhekana nenkazimulo yesivumelwano soMthetho kaMose njengoba kukhonjiswa ebusweni bokukhanya kukaMose (ngenxa yokuwuthola kwakhe kuNkulunkulu), obekubonisa ukuthi babephelele kanjani (u-Eksodusi 34: I-29-35, i-2 Korion 3: 9). Babengakwazi nokuqonda lokho okwashiwo isivumelwano soMthetho. Ukuthi umhlatshelo wesihlengo ophelele uzodingeka ukuze ubakhulule eMthethweni KaMose kanye nokungapheleli komuntu okuqokomisile. Njengoba i-2 Korion 3: I-14 iqinisekisa ukuthi amaJuda ayesenayo iveli phakathi kwabo nesivumelwano soMthetho. Ngani? Kwakungenxa yokuthi, ngokuyenza ifundwe esinagogeni, bakhombisa ukuthi abaqondi ukuthi yayisiphelile ngoKristu, ngokugcwalisa kwakhe umthetho ngomhlatshelo wakhe wesihlengo (Bona 2 Abakorinte I-3: 7, 11, 13, 14). Njengoba ivesi 2 Abakorinte I-3: I-15 iyakhombisa, uPaul bekangabhekiseli kwesihenqo njengento engokoqobo, kodwa eyengqondo. Iveli lalingelinye lokungaqondi komqondo. Kungalesi sizathu lapho uPawulu eqhubeka khona evesini 16 ukuthi "kepha lapho kukhona ukuphendukela kuKristu iveyili isusiwe." AmaJuda asevele akhonze uJehova, okungenani emcabangweni, futhi phakathi kwawo ayekhona amaJuda amaningi aqotho, ahlonipha uNkulunkulu (ULuka 2: 25-35, uLuka 2: 36-38). Lawa maJuda ahlonipha uNkulunkulu ayengadingi baphendukela kuJehova njengoba ayesemkhonze. Kodwa-ke, kwakudingeka baphendukele futhi bamukele uJesu njengoMesiya wabo, umsindisi kanye nomhlengi (2 Korion 5: 14-15, 18-19) ngaphandle kwabo ababengathemba ukuthi bazothola impilo engapheli (John 3: 16).

Ngakho-ke, le ndatshana isikisela ukuthi uPawulu wayesho ukuthini? Kusho “Phambi kukaJehova nalapho 'umoya kaJehova' ukhona, kukhona inkululeko. Kodwa-ke, ukuze sijabulele futhi sizuze kuleyo nkululeko, kufanele 'sibuyele kuJehova', okungukuthi, sibe nobuhlobo naye." (par. 4) Okokuqala, kunomehluko omkhulu phakathi kokuphendukela kuJehova — okungaba ukukhonza, ukuthola usizo, noma ukuthandaza — nokuba nobuhlobo bomuntu siqu noMdali wendawo yonke. Igama lesiGreki elihunyushwe ngokuthi “ukuphendukela” liqukethe incazelo 'yokuziphendulela', futhi njengoba uPaul abonisa evesini 15 lokho kungaba wukushintsha kwengqondo komuntu. Ngokwengeziwe njengoba sisanda kuxoxa, imibhalo ikhombisa ukukholelwa esihlengweni sikaJesu kwakuyinto ebalulekile.

Lo mbhalo uyaqhubeka “umoya kaJehova uletha ukukhululwa ebugqilini besono nokufa, kanye nasebugqilini bokukhulekelwa kwamanga nemikhuba yabo ”(umhl. 5) futhi icaphuna eyabaseRoma 6:23 neyabaseRoma 8: 2. Kodwa-ke amaRoma 6:23 athi "isipho uNkulunkulu asinikezayo ngukuphila okuphakade ngoKristu Jesu iNkosi yethu". Ngakho-ke ngaphandle kukaJesu ayikho inkululeko esonweni nasekufeni ngokwalo mbhalo. Ngokunjalo amaRoma 8: 2 athi "ngoba umthetho kamoya onika impilo kuKristu Jesu ukukhululile emthethweni wesono nowokufa." Ngakho-ke, awukho umbhalo okhonjiwe osisekela isiphetho sendatshana.

Ukwazisa Inkululeko Yethu Esinikezwe NguNkulunkulu

Inkinga ngalokhu kusatshalaliswa kwe-2 Korion 3: 15-18 ukuthi kuholela ekungaqondini kwemibhalo. Lokhu kusho ukuthi lapho indatshana ithi “Umphostoli uPawulu wanxusa wonke amaKristu ukuba angayithathi kalula inkululeko uJehova asinike yona ngomusa ngeNdodana yakhe, uJesu Kristu. (Funda eyesi-2 Korinte 6: 1) ”(isig. 7), ayinawo umthelela okufanele ngabe nawo ngenxa yokuthi amanzi abhuqiwe ngodaka. Bese kuba lula kakhulu ukuthi abazalwane nodade baphuthelwe injongo yomusa kaNkulunkulu.

Njengoba sesibekile isisekelo se-dodgy, i-athikili iyaqhubeka nokwandisa inkinga ngokuqala ukusebenzisa imigomo kwesinye sezifundo zayo zasekhaya, leyo yemfundo eqhubekayo. Isihloko sithi esigabeni 9 “Iseluleko sikaPhetro sisebenza nasezici ezibucayi kakhulu zokuphila, njengokukhetha komuntu imfundo, umsebenzi noma umsebenzi. Isibonelo, abantu abasha esikoleni namuhla bangaphansi kwengcindezi enkulu yokufanelekela ukubhaliswa ezikhungweni eziphakeme zemfundo ephakeme."

Ngabe uqaphele ngenkathi sixoxa futhi sifunda eyesi-2 kwabaseKorinte 3, 5 & 6 namaRoma 6 & 8, ukuthi ukuba nokholo nokwazisa umhlatshelo kaJesu wesihlengo kuthinte ukukhetha kwethu imfundo, umsebenzi noma umsebenzi? Cha? Nami angizange. Ngakho-ke, ingabe ukwenza ukukhetha kulezi zindawo kuyisono? Cha, ngaphandle kwalapho sikhetha umsebenzi noma umsebenzi ophikisana ngqo nemithetho kaNkulunkulu. Ngisho nabangebona ofakazi abavamile ukukhetha ukuba yisigebengu noma umbulali noma isifebe, futhi leyo misebenzi ayivamile ukufundiswa imfundo ephakeme ngokuphelele!

Manje kungani siphathwa esitatimendeni esilandelayo "Yize kuyiqiniso ukuthi sinenkululeko yokuzikhethela maqondana nemfundo nomsebenzi wethu, kufanele sikhumbule ukuthi inkululeko yethu ihlobene nokuthi zonke izinqumo esizenzayo zinemiphumela ” (isig. 10)? Lesi sitatimende sesobala olusobala. Ngakho-ke kungani uzihlupha ukukwenza? Kuvele ukuthi okuwukuphela kwesizathu ukubeka umbono ongemuhle ekukhetheni imfundo ephakeme ngaphandle kwemingcele emincane yeNdikimba Ebusayo. Kakhulu inkululeko.

Ngokusebenzisa Inkululeko Yethu Ngokuhlakanipha Ukukhonza uNkulunkulu

Isigaba 12 siqhubeka sithi: “Indlela enhle yokuzivikela ekusetshenzisweni kabi kwenkululeko yethu futhi ngaleyo ndlela siphinde sibe yizigqila zezifiso nezifiso zezwe, kufanele singene sigxile ezintweni ezingokomoya. (Galathiya 5: 16) ". 

Ngakho-ke yiziphi izinto ezingokomoya okukhulunywa ngazo kwabaseGalathiya 5:16 nomongo wawo emavesini amaGalathiya 5: 13-26? KwabaseGalathiya 3:13 kusikhumbuza ukuthi singasebenzisi inkululeko yethu esisanda kuyithola “njengesikhuthazo senyama”. Noma kunjalo, njengoba uPawulu akhumbuza amaKristu okuqala, yize "umthetho wonke ugcwaliseka ezwini linye, elithi:" Wothanda umakhelwane wakho njengalokhu uzithanda wena.. Ngakho-ke abanye babesebenzisa inkululeko yabo ukuphatha kabi amanye amaKristu. Yini uPawulu akhuluma ngayo ngokulandelayo? Ngabe wathi, 'kungenxa yokuthi uye wafunda imfundo ephakeme futhi wathola umsebenzi ngokusebenzela umqashi oyisibonelo esibi.'? Impendulo ibhalwe kumavesi 21-23 lapho ethe khona "Qhubekani nihamba ngomoya futhi ngeke nifeze isifiso senyama nhlobo". Ngakho ukuhamba ngumoya kwakuyisihluthulelo, futhi wanezela kulokho ayekusho emavesini alandelayo “Manje imisebenzi yenyama iyabonakala… Ngakolunye uhlangothi, izithelo zomoya ziluthando, injabulo, ukuthula, ukubekezela, umusa, ubuhle, ukholo, ubumnene, ukuzithiba. Akukho mthetho omelene nezinto ezinjalo. ”

Ngakho-ke kucacile kusuka kwabaseGalathiya 5: 16-26 ukuthi uPawulu wayebheka ukusebenza futhi nokukhombisa izithelo zomoya (ezicini zalo eziningi) njengokuphishekela okungokomoya okufanele ngabe sikwenza.

Ukugcina lo mbono ongokomBhalo, ake siwuqhathanise nombono walesi sihloko. Ikhuluma ngoNowa nomndeni wakhe, ithi “Bakhetha ukuzigcina bematasa kukho konke abababelwe kona ukuba bakwenze — ukwakha umkhumbi, bazigcinele ukudla kwabo kanye nezilwane, bese bexwayisa abanye. “UNowa wenza njengakho konke uNkulunkulu abemyale ngakho. Wenza kanjalo nje. ”(UGenesise 6: 22)” (isigaba 12). Ingabe ulibonile elinye iqiniso elijwayelekile elishiwo ngokuphathelene noNowa? Funda izahluko zonke zikaGenesise 6 & 7 bese uzama ngangokunokwenzeka, ngeke uthole ukuthi uJehova wabela uNowa nomndeni wakhe ukuthi bakhiphe isixwayiso. Futhi awuyikuthola irekhodi lakhe enza "kanjalo nje" ekuzwiseni isixwayiso. Kungani? Kungenxa yokuthi akazange asithole leso sabelo noma umyalo kwasekuqaleni. Sasiyaliwe ukuthi sakhe umkhumbi, futhiwenza kanjalo nje. "

Yini enye i-athikili esephakamisa yona? “Yini uJehova asiyale ukuba siyenze namuhla? Njengabafundi bakaJesu, siwazi kahle umsebenzi esiwunikwe uNkulunkulu. (Funda uLuka 4:18, 19)”(Isig. 13). Yebo, cha, uLuka usitshela konke ngokuthunywa okukhethekile kukaJesu, hhayi ngo “umsebenzi esiwunikwe uNkulunkulu.”Lapho ucaphuna isiprofetho sika-Isaya ngokuthi uMesiya wayezokwenzenjani. Kepha uMathewu 28: 19-20 ngumsebenzi esiwunikwe yiNkosi noMphathi wethu, uJesu Kristu. Kodwa-ke, uma ibukwa ngeso leNhlangano, ifundeka kanjena:

“Ngakho-ke hambani niyokwenza abantu bazo zonke izizwe babe abafundi, nibabhapathize egameni likaYise neleNdodana nelomoya ongcwele [nasekuzihlanganiseni nenhlangano kaNkulunkulu eqondiswa umoya,] nibafundise ukugcina konke enginiyale ngakho. Futhi, bheka! Nginani izinsuku zonke kuze kube isiphelo sesimiso sezinto. ”

Kusukela maphakathi nama-1980s, imibuzo yobhapathizo iguquliwe ukuze ifake iNhlangano njengengxenye yale nqubo yokwenza abafundi. Lesi ngesinye futhi isibonelo soshintsho ezindabeni ezinhle esizitholile, ngaphandle kwesixwayiso esivelele kwabaseGalathiya 1: 6-9 ngokumelene nokwenza ushintsho kwiVangeli leqiniso.

Okulandelayo sitshelwa: “Umbuzo okufanele ngamunye wethu awubheke ngothi, 'Ngingayisebenzisa yini inkululeko yami ukusekela ngokwengeziwe umsebenzi woMbuso? ” (isigaba 13) kanye “Kuyakhuthaza kakhulu ukubona ukuthi abaningi baye babona ukuphuthuma kwezikhathi zethu futhi benza ukuphila kwabo kwaba lula ukuze bakwazi ukuhlanganyela enkonzweni yesikhathi esigcwele” (isigaba 14).

Ngakho-ke, usibonile isikhuthazo sokusebenzela noma sokukhombisa izithelo zomoya njengoba zinikezwe nguPawulu kwabaseGalathiya? Cha? Kepha uyaqaphela ukuthi okuwukuphela kokuphokophela ngokomoya okukhulunyiwe ukushumayela ngokuhambisana nezindinganiso zeNhlangano ezingatholakali emiBhalweni. Abantu bazo zonke izinkolo bayashumayela. Sifana nabo ku-TV. Izithunywa zevangeli ezivela kuzo zonke izinkolo zishumayela emhlabeni wonke. Ngubani ongakaze abe neMormon angqongqoze emnyango wakhe. Ngabe lokho kukhombisa ukuthi bangabantu bokomoya, bathuthukisa izimfanelo uPawule akhuluma ngazo kwabaseGalathiya?

Futhi, noma ungazama kangakanani, ngeke uthole nencazelo “yomsebenzi woMbuso” emiBhalweni ehambisana nokwakhiwa kokuzenzela "kwenkonzo yesikhathi esigcwele" eyenziwe yiNhlangano. Isisho esisodwa esihlobene nesihlobene noMbuso "yizindaba ezinhle zoMbuso".

Ngicishe ngashiya okuwukuphela 'kokuphishekela okungokomoya' okushiwo yi-athikili, “Noma kunjalo, abaningi basebenzisa ithuba lokuvolontiya emisebenzini yokwakha engokwasezulwini emhlabeni wonke” (isig. 16). Manje lokhu kufuna akushiwo kuphela kwabaseGalathiya, akukhulunywa ngako nakuyo yonke iTestamente Elisha. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ingabe imisebenzi ilawulwa noma ilawulwa uJehova uNkulunkulu. Bazodinga ukuthi babe khona uma kufanele baqinisekise isihloko: “Ukwakhiwa okungokwasezulwini”.

Ngakho-ke lapho isihloko siphela ngo-Kwangathi singakhombisa ngezinqumo esizenzayo ukuthi siyayazisa le nkululeko. Esikhundleni sokuyibhidliza noma ukuyisebenzisa kabi, masisebenzise inkululeko yethu namathuba akuletha ukukhonza uJehova ngezinga eliphelele ngangokunokwenzeka ” (par. 17), iphethe okushiwo 'ukuba matasa emisebenzini yenhlangano'. Ngakho-ke kungcono ukuphendula ngombhalo njengakuqala. Okungcono kunokufunda u-2 kwabaseKorinte 7: 1-2 (umongo we-2 Korinte 3 & 5 okuxoxwe ngawo ekuqaleni kwalesi sihloko) othi “Ngakho-ke, njengoba sinalezi zithembiso, bathandekayo, masizihlanze kukho konke ukungcola kwenyama nomoya, uphelelisa ubungcwele ngokwesaba uNkulunkulu. Sivulele indawo. Asonanga muntu, asonakalisanga muntu, asizakalisanga muntu. ”

Asilingise uJesu Kristu njengoba umphostoli uPhawuli akhuthaza futhi sisebenzise “inkululeko ekhazimulayo yabantwana bakaNkulunkulu” ukulandela izinto ezingokomoya zangempela, ukwenziwa “kwezithelo zomoya.” (KwabaseRoma 8: 21, Galathiya 5: I-22)
