Ngaphakathi 1 UPetros 2:9-10, kubhaliwe kwathiwa amaKristu, abathi baluva ubizo lukaThixo, owababizayo ukuba baphume ebumnyameni, bangene emmangalisweni wakhe, nisisizukulwana esinyuliweyo, Ububukumkani basebukhosini, Uhlanga olungcwele, kunye nabantu abangaqhelekanga. Ithetha ntoni le nto? Ngaba amaKristu aphila njengesizukulwana esinyuliweyo, ububingeleli basebukhosini, isizwe esingcwele, kunye nabantu abangaqhelekanga?
Sithetha ntoni isizukulwana esikhethiweyo?
Ke nina nisisizukulwana esinyuliweyo, Ububukumkani basebukhosini, Uhlanga olungcwele, abantu abakhethekileyo; ukuze nivakalise isidima salowo wanibizayo ukuba niphume ebumnyameni, ningene ekukhanyeni kwakhe okungummangaliso: Obekukudala bengengobantu, kodwa ngoku ningabantu bakaThixo: ababengenzelwanga nceba, ngoku ke nenzelwe inceba (1 UPetros 2:9-10)
Wonke umntu, othe wanikela ingqalelo kubizo lukaThixo nangokholo kuYesu Krestu uguqukile kwaye uzelwe ngokutsha kuKrestu, ibe sisidalwa esitsha, unyana kaThixo.
Ezo, Ngoobani ubumnyama, kodwa baluva ubizo lukaThixo, bafuduswa ebumnyameni basiwa ekukhanyeni kwakhe okungummangaliso, baxolelaniswa noThixo, bengabakaThixo, kwaye baye baba ngabantu bakaThixo.
Zisisidalwa esitsha kwaye azikho kwisizukulwana somntu owileyo, ongowenyama nomoni kwaye unomtyholi njengoyise wabo kwaye baphila ngokwenyama ekungamthobelini uThixo.. Kodwa zezesizukulwana somntu omtsha, isizukulwana esinyuliweyo, othe wenziwa ilungisa ngegazi likaYesu nomsebenzi wakhe wokuhlangula, kwaye babe noThixo njengoYise wabo kwaye baphila ngokoMoya bemthobela uThixo.
Abasengabo abantwana basebusuku, abangabakhe ubumnyama, ke basuke baba ngabantwana bemini, abangabakhe Ukukhanya kwaye baya kuphila ekuKhanyeni enyanisweni kaThixo emhlabeni (Funda kwakhona: Isono masingabi salawula njengokumkani!).
Buthetha ukuthini ububingeleli basebukhosini?
Ngoku ke, ukuba nithe naliphulaphula okunene izwi lam, uwugcine umnqophiso wam, ngoko niya kuba yinqobo (ekhethekileyo) ubutyebi kum ngaphezu kwabantu bonke: ngokuba lelam ihlabathi lonke: Niya kuba bubukumkani bababingeleli kum, nohlanga olungcwele (iEksodus 19:5-6)
Ukuza kubani, njengeLitye eliphilileyo, Ewe, akavunyelwanga ngabantu, kodwa banyulwe nguThixo, kwaye ixabisekile, Naye, njengamatye aphilileyo, nakhelwa indlu yokomoya, ububingeleli obungcwele, ukunikela imibingelelo eyiyeyomoya, owamkelekileyo kuThixo ngoYesu Kristu (1 UPetros 2:4-5)
Kanye njengokuba uYesu wayeliLitye eliphilayo, owayengavunywa ngamadoda, kodwa banyulwe nguThixo, benqabile, amakholwa nawo angamatye aphilileyo, abatshutshiswayo nabamkelwa lihlabathi, ke unyulwe nguThixo, unqabile kuye.
Babephila kwihlabathi, kodwa bafile kuThixo. Nangona kunjalo, Ngokholo kunye nokuhlaziywa kuKristu, baye baphila kuThixo, kodwa bafile ehlabathini.
UYesu Kristu unguKumkani noMbingeleli Omkhulu kwaye uyiNtloko yoMzimba Wakhe, iBandla. Indibano yamakholwa liBandla kwaye banguMzimba kaKristu emhlabeni (Funda kwakhona: UYesu Kristu uyiNtloko yoMzimba; iBandla).
Amakholwa liqumrhu lababingeleli, ababizelwe ububingeleli obungcwele nobobukumkani, baze basondeze imibingelelo eyiyeyomoya, ezikholekileyo kakuhle kuye uThixo ngoYesu Kristu, uMlamli.
Yaye kanye njengoko uYehova waba lilifa lobubingeleli babaLevi, INkosi ikwalilifa labo ngoMoya oyiNgcwele, ohleli kubo kwaye uya kuhlala enabo (Funda kwakhona: Luyintoni na udidi lukaMelkitsedeke?).
Kuba amakholwa abububingeleli basebukhosini, baya kuhlala njengababingeleli. Oku akuthethi, ukuba baya kuzahlula ehlabathini, nxiba ezizodwa (umbingeleli) impahla, kwalela ukutshata, njl. kodwa kuthetha ukuba baya kuhlala kweli hlabathi phakathi kwabantu njengababingeleli ngokuzithoba nokuzinikela kuThixo bethobela uThixo neLizwi lakhe ngentando yakhe..
Wonke amakholwa afuna ukulawula njengokumkani, kodwa bambalwa abakholwayo, abafuna ukuhlala ngcwele njengababingeleli bangqengqe imisebenzi yenyama.
Kodwa amakholwa abububingeleli basebukhosini kwaye afanele aphile ngcwele ngokuthobela uThixo ngokuthanda kwakhe kwaye enze imisebenzi yobulungisa, NjengoYesu Krestu, Ngubani uKumkani woBukumkani bamazulu kunye noMbingeleli oMkhulu woMnqophiso oMtsha otywinwe ngegazi lakhe elixabisekileyo.
Sithetha ntoni isizwe esingcwele?
Makabongwe uThixo, uYise weNkosi yethu uYesu Kristu, Ngubani osikelele kuzo zonke iintsikelelo zokomoya kwiindawo zaseMazantsi kuKristu: Njengoko wasinyulileyo kuye ngaphambi kokusekwa kwehlabathi, ukuba sibe ngcwele kwaye singabi natyala phambi kwakhe: ethe ngenxa engaphambili wasimisela ukuba senziwe oonyana ngoYesu Kristu kuye, ngokokuthanda kwakhe, Ukuze kudunyiswe uzuko lobabalo lwakhe, athe kuyo wasenzela ububele ngoyintanda (Kwabase-Efese 1:3-6)
Bonke abo bazelwe nguThixo abayi kwenza isono,; ngokuba imbewu yakhe ihleli kuye: kwaye akanakona, ngokuba ezelwe nguThixo. Kule ndlela abantwana bakaThixo bayabonakala, kunye nabantwana bakaMtyholi: Athi ke engabenzi ubulungisa, akangoThixo, Lowo ungamthandiyo umzalwana wakhe (1 UYohane 3:9-10)
Amakholwa asingawo abehlabathi kwaye ke ngoko awayi kuphila njengehlabathi kwikratshi, ukwazi nobulumko bomntu, uzingise esonweni. Kodwa amakholwa aluhlanga olungcwele kwaye ke aphila ubomi obungcwele, nto leyo ethetha ukwahlukana nehlabathi; ubumnyama, kwaye uzinikele kuThixo.
Nangona bahlala emhlabeni, Abangabo abehlabathi, kodwa ngabakaThixo. Ngenxa yokuba bengabakaThixo yaye abasengabo abehlabathi yaye baphila njengehlabathi, abayi kuqondwa kwaye bathandwe lihlabathi, ke ihlabathi liya kubathiya, ngenxa kaKristu nangenxa yokuba bayangqina ukuba imisebenzi yakhe ingendawo (Owu. UYohane 3:19-20; 7:7; 15:18-20 (Funda kwakhona: Kutheni ihlabathi liwathiyile amaKristu?)).
Ngaloo nto, amakholwa, abangabakaThixo nabahamba ngokumlulamela ngokoMoya ngokuthanda kwakhe, bazahlula kwabangakholwayo, abangabehlabathi nabahamba ekungamthobelini uThixo neLizwi lakhe ngokwenyama emnyameni (Funda kwakhona: Nguwuphi umahluko phakathi kweegusha kunye neebhokhwe?).
Bathetha ukuthini abantu abangaqhelekanga?
niyenze nyulu nje imiphefumlo yenu ngokuyilulamela inyaniso ngoMoya, kuse ekuthandeni abazalwana okungenaluhanahaniso., thandanani ngenyameko, ngokwasentliziyweni ehlambulukileyo: Ukuzalwa ngokutsha, hayi abembewu enokonakala, eyongenakonakala, ngelizwi likaThixo, odla ubomi, ehleli ngonaphakade (1 UPetros 1:22-23)
Ke, xa nditshoyo, andithethi nto nje, ngokungathi ilizwi likaThixo liphalele. Kuba asingabo bonke bakwaSirayeli, abangabakwaSirayeli: Nokuba, ngokuba bayimbewu ka-Abraham, bangabantwana bonke: kodwa, Iya kubizwa ngoIsake imbewu yakho. Yiyo i, Abo ke bangabantwana benyama, asingoonyana bakaThixo aba: ngabantwana bedinga ababalelwa embewu (AmaRoma 9:6-8)
Enziwa ke kuye uAbraham amadinga, nakuyo imbewu yakhe. Akatsho, Nakwimbewu, njengakwabaninzi; kodwa njengenye, Nakwimbewu yakho, onguKristu ke lowo (kwabaseGalati 3:16)
Kuba nina nonke ningoonyana bakaThixo ngako ukukholwa, nikuKristu Yesu;. Kuba nina nonke, nabhaptizelwayo kuKristu, namambatha uKristu. Akukho mYuda namGrike, akukho khoboka nakhululekileyo, akusekho ndoda nankazana: kuba nina nonke nimntu mnye, nikuKristu Yesu. Kwaye ukuba ningabakaKrestu, ngoko niyimbewu ka-Abraham, neendlalifa ngokwedinga (kwabaseGalati 3:26-29)
Njengaye wonke umntu, owazalwa ngembewu kaSirayeli wayengowabantu bakaThixo, ngoko ke wonke umntu ozelwe yiMbewu engenakonakala ungowabantu bakaThixo.
Ngowabantu bakaThixo, kuthetha ukuba ngokaThixo hayi omnye umntu. Ezo, abangabakhe abantu bakaThixo ngabakhe. Bangabakhe. Baya kumphulaphula kwaye bamthobele kwaye bagcine imiyalelo Yakhe, into ethetha ukuba baya kuthobela amazwi Akhe kwaye baya kwenza intando yaKhe (Funda kwakhona: Kuthekani ukuba ukuthanda kukaThixo akuyiyo intando yakho?).
Ukuba abakwenzi oku, emva koko ubomi babo bubonakala, ukuba abakaThixo, nokuba abantu bathini na, abanomoya weli hlabathi.
ILizwi licacile kwaye ekugqibeleni, liLizwi lanaphakade eliya kugweba wonke umntu ngokwemisebenzi yakhe ingekuko oko akufumanisileyo neembono zabantu, abaphila okwethutyana kulo mhlaba.
UThixo ukhethe abantu bakhe kwaye ufuna ukuba oonyana bakhe bazahlule ehlabathini baze bahluke ehlabathini (ubumnyama) endaweni yokulalanisa kunye nokuhamba kunye nehlabathi kwaye baphile njengoonyana bomtyholi ngokuzingca ngokuthanda kwabo.
Kuyintando kaThixo ukuba amakholwa, abangoonyana Bakhe kwaye bengabakhe, zisisitheliso saKhe emhlabeni, njengoYesu, kwaye siphile kwintando yakhe kwaye ke siphile ubomi obungcwele emhlabeni.
UThixo akafuni ukuba oonyana bakhe bazifihle baze bathi cwaka ngeNyaniso baze baphile njengenkamela nabameli basemhlabeni..
Kodwa uThixo ufuna oonyana baKhe, ngubani ofileyo, ke ngoKristu uthe wadla ubomi, ukuba ngamangqina akhe athembekileyo kwaye bakhanye njengezikhanyiso ebumnyameni beli hlabathi kwaye bashumayele ngenkalipho inyaniso nobukhulu bakhe emhlabeni kwaye babhence ubuxoki nemisebenzi kaMtyholi kwaye bayitshabalalise kwaye basuse isigqubuthelo sabantu. (Funda kwakhona: Ngaba unesibindi ngokwaneleyo sokuthetha iLizwi likaThixo?).
Oonyana bakaThixo bangqina ubukhulu Bakhe
Kuba singumsebenzi wakhe, Yenzelwe uKrestu Yesu kwimisebenzi elungileyo, onokuthi uThixo alungiselele ukuba kufuneka sihambe kuwo (Kwabase-Efese 2:10)
UYesu usinike umzekelo kwaye sinjalo (ngokugqibeleleyo) wadala kuye ngokomfanekiso wakhe, ngokuvuselela kwakhona, kwaye ufumana umoya wakhe oyingcwele, Oya kusifundisa, asikhokelele kuyo yonke inyaniso, aligwebe ihlabathi ngesono, Ubulungisa, kwaye ngomgwebo, ukuze sibe ngamangqina kaYesu Kristu emhlabeni size simmele, shumayela kwaye umise uBukumkani Bakhe emhlabeni, ukuze uYesu Kristu noYise bazukiswe (Owu. UYohane 16:8-13, Kwabase-Efese 2:10, 4:15-24, KwabaseKolose 3:10).
