Maninzi amaKristu, abalangazelela ubhaptizo lomlilo. Ngenxa yazo zonke iimfundiso ezingobhaptizo lomlilo, banolindelo oluthile lobhaptizo lomlilo kwaye bafuna ukulufumana olu bhaptizo ngomlilo. Kodwa ithini iBhayibhile ngobhaptizo lomlilo? Ngaba uYesu wathembisa ubhaptizo lomlilo kumakholwa okanye hayi? Yintoni intsingiselo yobhaptizo lomlilo?
Ngaba konke ukubonakaliswa kwenyama kuphuma kuMoya oyiNgcwele?
Maninzi amaKristu, abafuna ukufumana ubhaptizo ngomlilo kwaye baye kwiinkomfa kunye neentlanganiso zecawa ezijikeleza umlilo woMoya kunye nemvuselelo. Ngexesha lenkonzo, izinto zendalo ezifana nomculo kunye nokukhanya kwe-neon zisetyenziselwa ukudala umoya othile ofanele ubafake 'kwisimo somoya' nokuqinisekisa ukuba ubukho bukaThixo buya kubonakala phakathi kwabo.. Babiza uMoya oyiNgcwele kwaye bacule iingoma zokumema uMoya oyiNgcwele ukuba eze phakathi kwabo. Kungenxa yokuba bafuna ukuva ubukho bukaThixo enyameni yabo (Owu. iimvakalelo, iimvakalelo).
Bawaphinda amazwi engoma ngokuphindaphindiweyo. Abanye abantu balala phantsi ngelixa bebiza kwaye bebongoza uThixo ukuba abaphe uMoya oyiNgcwele. Bayangqiba, khala, kwaye bakhale de kubekho into eyenzekayo kwaye bafumana iimvakalelo kunye neemvakalelo, abacinga ukuba ivela kuThixo.
Bazithulula kwaye bazinikele ngokupheleleyo kwiimvakalelo zabo. Bazivumela ukuba bakhokelwe yimvakalelo kunye neemvakalelo zabo kwaye bangene uhlobo oluthile lwe-trance. Abanye baba neemvakalelo zothando olunzulu, abacinga ukuba ivela kuThixo, kwaye baqale ukuhleka, khwaza, khala, umdaniso, ngcangcazela, njl.. Abanye bakhasa okanye babhadula emgangathweni bade baziphathe kwaye bavakale okwezilwanyana.
Bacinga ukuba bafumene ukuthululwa koMoya oyiNgcwele nobhaptizo ngomlilo. Kuba zonke iintlobo zembonakalo zenzeka, ngaphandle komnye: isikhalo sikaMoya. Isikhalo sikaMoya malunga nemeko yeCawa kunye nezono ezenziwa eCaweni.
UMtyholi ungumlinganisi
Nangona amakholwa amaninzi acinga ukuba ubukho boMoya oyiNgcwele kunye nokubhaptizwa ngomlilo kuqulethe iimvakalelo kunye neemvakalelo ezithile, kwaye (amandla angaphezu kwawemvelo) izibonakaliso, ziphosakele ngokupheleleyo.
UMtyholi ungumlinganisi kwaye wazi kakuhle ukuba yintoni na amaKristu asenyameni, abalawulwa yingqiqo nabakhokelwa yinyama yabo elangazelelayo noko bajolise kuko, oko kukuthi kwiimvakalelo kunye nokubonakaliswa kummandla wendalo. Bafuna ukuva okanye ukuva into kwaye bafumane umoya othile, kodwa ngaphezu kwakho konke, bafuna ukubona imiqondiso nezimanga. Yiyo loo nto benqula uThixo.
Kodwa uThixo sele ubanikile abanye kubo oko babekufuna. Kodwa ingxaki kukuba umfanekiso abawenzileyo ngoMoya oyiNgcwele awuhambelani noMoya oyiNgcwele wokwenyani.
Nge iimfundiso zobuxoki yomntu ophuma kumtyholi, badale umfanekiso woMoya oyiNgcwele, oko kuyaphambuka eLizwini.
Ngokuswela ulwazi lweLizwi, ababoni ukuba uThixo sele ebanike konke abakufunayo ukuze bamisele uBukumkani Bakhe kulo mhlaba.
Umtyholi usebenzisa ukungazi kwabo aze axelise ‘umoya wabo oyingcwele’ aze ahlasele amakholwa ngeengelosi zakhe. Baqalisa ukuhleka, khala, ngcangcazela, ngcangcazela, amava ukushwabana kwemisipha okungalawulekiyo kwaye enze njengezilwanyana. Bayacula kwaye badanise, banomdla, kwaye babe nexesha lobomi babo kuba yiloo nto ababeyifuna.
Kodwa zonke ezi mbonakalo zenyama zezokwexeshana kuphela kwaye zinokwanelisa amakholwa okwexeshana. Kuba kamsinya nje bakufika ekhaya baze baqhubeke nemisebenzi yabo yemihla ngemihla baze baxakeke kubomi bentsapho ‘umlilo’ ababecinga ukuba bawufumene uyacima..
Kodwa ngaba ubhaptizo ngomlilo olushunyayelwa namhlanje kwaye namava, ubhaptizo lomlilo oluchazwe eBhayibhileni? Ngaba ubhaptizo lomlilo luvela kuMoya oyiNgcwele kwaye lubhaptizo lomlilo olulungiselelwe amakholwa?
Umlilo uneentsingiselo ezininzi
Umlilo usetyenziswa izihlandlo ezininzi eBhayibhileni yaye uneentsingiselo ezininzi ezahlukahlukeneyo. Umlilo unokujongwa kwaye uchazwe kwii-engile ezininzi. Umlilo awusetyenziswa ngokoqobo kuphela kodwa ukwangumfuziselo phakathi kwabanye, uThixo, UYesu; ilizwi, UMoya oyiNgcwele, iingelosi, abalungiseleli bakaThixo, ubungcwele bukaThixo, Ukulunga kukaThixo, izilingo, ukungcwaliswa, ukucocwa, ukutshatyalaliswa kwesono (yonke into echasene nentando kaThixo), njl. Ekubeni eli nqaku lithetha ngenxalenye yeBhayibhile apho uYohane wathetha ngoYesu onguMesiya nobhaptizo ngoMoya oyiNgcwele nangomlilo., umlilo kuya kuxoxwa ngawo kulo mxholo.
UYohane umBhaptizi wathetha ngobhaptizo oluthathu
Kodwa xa wabona abaninzi babaFarisi nabaSadusi besiza ekubhaptizweni kwakhe, wathi kubo, Nzalandini yamarhamba, onilumkisileyo ukuba niyibaleke ingqumbo ezayo? Velisani ngoko iziqhamo eziyifaneleyo inguquko: Kwaye musani ukucinga ukuthetha ngaphakathi kwenu, Thina sinobawo uAbraham: kuba ndithi kuni, Unako uThixo kuwo la matye ukumvelisela abantwana uAbraham. Kungokunje izembe selibekiwe ezingcanjini zemithi: ke ngoko wonke umthi ongavelisi siqhamo silungileyo uyagawulwa, kwaye iphoswe emlilweni. Mna okunene ndinibhaptizela enguqukweni ngamanzi;: kodwa lowo uzayo emva kwam unamandla kunam, ozihlangu zakhe ndingakulingeneyo ukubathwala: yena uya kunibhaptiza ngoMoya oyiNgcwele, nangomlilo: Osifutha sisandla saKhe, Uya kuwucamagushela umhlaba wakhe, ayibuthele ingqolowa yakhe kuvimba; Ke wona umququ uya kuwutshisa ngomlilo ongacimekiyo (UMateyu 3:11-12, ULuka 3:16-17).
Ngaphambi kokuba uYohane athethe ngeentlobo ezahlukahlukeneyo zobhaptizo, UYohane wathetha nabaFarisi nabaSadusi ngomhla womgwebo nokuba wonke umntu, ongavelisi siqhamo esimfaneleyo inguquko, yayiza kuphoswa emlilweni.
UYohane wabhaptizela enguqukweni emanzini, kodwa uMesiya, owayeza kuza emva kukaYohane, babeza kubabhaptiza ngoMoya oyiNgcwele nangomlilo.
UYesu Krestu wayenguye kwaye unguMesiya kwaye uYesu unoxanduva lokubhaptizwa ngoMoya oyiNgcwele kunye nobhaptizo lomlilo.
Osifutha sisandla saKhe, Uya kuwucamagushela umhlaba wakhe, ayibuthele ingqolowa yakhe kuvimba; Ke wona umququ uya kuwutshisa ngomlilo ongacimekiyo (UMateyu 3:12)
UJohn akazange ayeke emva kwegama elithi 'umlilo', kodwa waqhubeka ethetha kwakhona ngeMini yoMgwebo nangoYesu amandla akhe. Ngokuba uYesu uya kuwutshisa umququ ngomlilo ongacimiyo, elatha kwidike lomlilo elingunaphakade; indawo yokugqibela umtyholi, izithunywa zakhe, naboni; abakhonzi bezono nobugwenxa.
Yintoni umlilo kaMoya?
Umlilo woMoya awunanto yakwenza neemvakalelo, iimvakalelo, ukubonakaliswa kwenyama okanye umoya okhethekileyo. Umlilo woMoya unento yonke yokwenza nokuhlambulula umgangatho wakhe okanye ukuwubeka ngamanye amazwi, ngenkqubo yokungcwaliswa komntu, oye waba a indalo entsha kuKristu ngaye ukuzalwa ngokutsha. Ubungcwele bukaThixo sisazulu kwaye ubungcwele bakhe bujongana nabantu ngezono zabo kwaye bababizele enguqukweni nasekususweni kwezono. (ukungamthobeli uThixo).
UThixo ungumlilo odlayo, yonke into emiyo endleleni yobungcwele bakhe nobulungisa bakhe buya kutshatyalaliswa (iDuteronomi 4:24, iDuteronomi 9:3, IsiHebhere 12:29).
Wonke umntu ozelwe ngokutsha uya kusulungekiswa (engabhaptizwanga) ngomlilo ukuze inyama nemisebenzi yeNkosi indoda endala iya kugqitywa.
Wathi uYesu, nokuba Uze kuphosa umlilo emhlabeni. Akazanga ukuzisa uxolo, kodwa iyantlukwano (Lu 12:49). Lo mlilo ubhekisa kwiyantlukwano nentshutshiso eya kuza ngenxa yokuza kwaKhe nobulungisa bakhe, yona eyichithayo imisebenzi kaMtyholi.
UYesu wazibhenca izono zabantu, ngokuba wahamba ngobulungisa, ukwenza ukuthanda kukaThixo emhlabeni.
UYesu wayengengoMntu, owanyamezela wavuma yonke into. Ngelishwa, amakholwa amaninzi aphuhlise oku umfanekiso waKhe. Kodwa ukuba baya kufunda iBhayibhile ngokwabo ngoMoya oyiNgcwele kwaye bangathembeli ‘ngokumfamekileyo’ kumazwi azo zonke iintlobo zabashumayeli., ngoko babeya kufumana wonke omnye umfanekiso waKhe. Babeza kumazi uYesu Kristu wokwenene; iLizwi eliphilileyo noNyana kaThixo ophilileyo. Ngenxa yokuba uYesu akazange anyamezele kwaye amkele yonke into kwaye akazange avumele abantu ukuba baqhubeke ezonweni zabo. Kodwa uYesu wabakhalimela abantu bakaThixo ngezono zabo waza wabayalela ukuba batshintshe ubomi babo baze basuse izono zabo. Ukuze bahambe ekuthandeni kukaThixo baze bamkhonze. UYesu wayemelene naye yaye ethetha eluleka yaye enegunya. Wayethetha amazwi anzima kwaye engoyiki izimvo zabantu okanye ukuba baya kumshiya.
Ubhaptizo ngoMoya oyiNgcwele
UYesu wathetha nabafundi bakhe ngokuza komnye uMthuthuzeli; UMoya oyiNgcwele. Wabathembisa ukuba uya kuthandaza kuBawo nokuba uya kubathumela uMoya oyiNgcwele. Babeza kubhaptizwa ngoMoya oyiNgcwele kwaye Yena uya kuba nabo ahlale ngaphakathi kubo (UYohane 14:16-26, UYohane 15:26, UYohane 16:7, IZenzo 1:5-8). Akukho ndawo, ngaba uYesu wathetha ngobhaptizo lwesibini, ababeza kuzifumana. Kwakukho ubhaptizo olunye kuphela, awabathembisa wona uYesu, yaba nguwo lowo Ubhaptizo noMoya oyiNgcwele.
This baptism with the Holy Spirit would be enough to ‘set them on fire’. Lo nto, they would become God’s ministers of fire or in other words, ministers of the righteousness of God, instead of timid collaborators of the world.
Because as God is a consuming fire, and represents His holiness and righteousness, and as His Word is as fire, so shall His sons be a consuming fire and represent His holiness and righteousness and speak words of fire.
They shall speak the truth of God and confront people with their sins and call them to repentance so that they will be saved from destruction
Jesus had given His disciples all His authority; Igama lakhe and by the baptism with the Holy Spirit they would receive power so that they would walk in authority and power according to the intando kaThixo and represent and establish His Kingdom on this earth. Just like Jesus walked in the authority of His Father and in the power of the Holy Spirit after the will of God and represented and established His Kingdom on this earth.
Ubhaptizo ngomlilo
Jesus spoke many times about fire. But when Jesus talked about the fire, Jesus didn’t refer to the baptism with the Holy Spirit but Jesus referred to hell.
Nivile ukuba kwathiwa kumanyange, Awuyi kubulala; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: Ke mna ndithi kuni, Bonke abo baqumbele, ngaphandle kwesizathu, baya kuba semngciphekweni womgwebo: Kwaye nabani na oya kuthi kumzalwana wakhe, Rack, iya kuba semngciphekweni weBhunga: Ke ngubani na othe wathetha, Uyasidenge, iya kuba sengozini yesihogo somlilo (UMateyu 5:21-22)
Wonke umthi ongenzi siqhamo esihle uyaphiliswa, kwaye iphoswe emlilweni (UMateyu 7:19)
Waphendula ke wathi kubo, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world. The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth (UMateyu 13:37-42)
So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just, And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth (UMateyu 13:49-50)
And if thy hand offend thee, usinqumle: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. And if thy foot offend thee, usinqumle: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. And if thine eye offend thee, Khuphela ngaphandle: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire: Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. Kuba bonke baya kugalelwa ityuwa ngomlilo, Wonke umbingelelo wogalelwa ityuwa ngetyuwa (Phawula 9:43-49, UMateyu 18:8-9)
Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, qalekisiwe, Kwimililo kanaphakade, ilungiselelwe uMtyholi kunye neengelosi zakhe (UMateyu 25:41)
Ukuba umntu uthe akahlali kum, ulahlelwa phandle njengesebe, kwaye ibunile; bawabuthe abantu, wabaphosa emlilweni, kwaye zitshiswe (UYohane 15:6)
Jesus was baptized three times
UYesu wayekhona Ubhaptizwe emanzini and received the baptism with the Holy Spirit from His Father. But these were not the only baptisms Jesus received. Jesus was also baptized in the sufferings and eventually death (Phawula 10:38-39, ULuka 12:50). Jesus received this baptism from His Father for all sinners.
Jesus was baptized in the sufferings unto death and became the Substitute for sinners (1 Pe 3:18, I-ROM 5:19). UYesu, who was righteous took all the sins and the punishment for sinners upon Himself so that if they would believe in Him and be baptized in Him, babengayi kulwamkela ubhaptizo ngomlilo, leyo ilungiselelwe wonke umoni, kodwa ubomi obungunaphakade.
UThixo wabhaptiza uYesu kwiimbandezelo ukusa ekufeni naxa uYesu woyisa ukufa waza wavuswa kwabafileyo njengoMoyisi, Wafumana uBukumkani noBukumkani kuYise. UYesu uya kunikela ubukumkani kuYise, ekugqibeleni, xa athe wabubhangisa bonke ubulawuli, nalo lonke igunya, namandla (1 KwabaseKorinte 15:24).
UYesu ubhaptiza ngoMoya oyiNgcwele nangomlilo
Kuba, khangela, iyeza imini, liya kuvutha njengeziko lezonka; nabo bonke abanekratshi, ewe, nabo bonke abenza okubi, iya kuba ziindiza: kwaye loo mini izayo iya kubatshisa, utsho uYehova wemikhosi, ukuze lingabashiyeli ngcambu nasebe (uMalaki 4:1)
UYesu unikwe lonke igunya ezulwini nasemhlabeni kwaye uyababhaptiza abo, abakholwayo kuYe kwaye balungele ukubeka ubomi babo phantsi Mlandeleni, ngoMoya oyiNgcwele.
Ke abangakholwayo; abo bangakholwayo kwaye bathobele, kodwa alikhanyele iLizwi likaThixo, uya kwaliwa nguYesu; ILizwi likaThixo eliphilileyo kwaye uya kubabhaptiza ngomlilo edikeni lomlilo elingunaphakade (ISityhilelo 20:15, 2 KwabaseTesalonika 1:7-9)
‘Yibani yityuwa yehlabathi’
