NgamaHebhere 4, sifunda ngokungena ekuphumleni kukaThixo. Kodwa yintoni ukuphumla kukaThixo? Ungena njani ekuphumleni kukaThixo ngokwebhayibhile kwaye uphile ekuphumleni kwakhe kwaye ube namava oxolo lukaThixo ebomini bakho?
Indlela esa eluxolweni nakubomi obungunaphakade
Utsho uYehova, Umkhululi wakho, Lowo Ungcwele kaSirayeli; NdinguYehova, uThixo wakho okufundisayo,, ukukhokele ngendlela oya kuhamba ngayo. Akwaba ubuyibazele indlebe imithetho yam!! Oko bekuya kuba njengomlambo uxolo lwakho, nobulungisa bakho njengamaza olwandle (uIsaya 58:17-18)
Indlela esa eluxolweni nakubomi obungunaphakade, yindlela yokholo kuThixo nokuthobela iLizwi laKhe.
Ngaphandle ukholo kwaye ngaphandle kokuthobela iLizwi likaThixo nelizwi laKhe, aninako ukumkholisa uThixo nokuhamba endleleni yamalungisa.
Bahamba emendweni wamalungisa, abakholwayo kuYesu Kristu, uNyana kaThixo uze uthobele uYesu kwaye uhlale unyanisekile kuye.
Ke, lungekho ukholo, akunakubakho ukumkholisa kakuhle uThixo (Hebhere 11:6)
Ngaphandle kokholo akunakwenzeka ukungena ekuphumleni kwakhe kwaye wamkele izinto, ukuba uThixo ubalungiselele abo, abakuKristu Yesu.
Ubomi kuYesu Krestu bumalunga nokholo kuye nokuhlala kuye; ilizwi.
Xa umsebenzi wentlawulelo kaYesu wagqitywa ngomhla wesibhozo, UThixo wayenokungena ekuphumleni kwaKhe. Ngokuba indalo yakhe endala; ixhego, owahlukanisiweyo noThixo waza wawa kwisikhundla sakhe waza wachatshazelwa bububi, yabuyiselwa (ukuphiliswa) ngedini likaYesu Krestu negazi Lakhe. Umntu wayenamandla okuba ngunyana okanye intombi kaThixo; umntu omtsha, oxolelaniswe noThixo, wabuyiselwa endaweni yakhe, waba ngoyena mkhulu kuKristu (ngokomoya) ulawulo emhlabeni. Ngoku yonke into yayilungile, ewe kuhle kakhulu (Funda kwakhona: Ngosuku lwesibhozo, imini yendalo entsha).
Ungena njani ekuphumleni kukaThixo?
Kwisahluko samaHebhere 4, sifunda ngokungena ekuphumleni kukaThixo. Singangena kuphela ekuphumleni kwaKhe, ngokholo ngokuzalwa ngokutsha kuYe kwaye nithobele uKrestu namazwi akhe.
Abantu bakwaSirayeli babenjalo abangamthobeliyo uThixo, xa babehlala entlango. Babengakholelwa kwilungiselelo likaThixo, baza baqhubeka besenza ukuthanda kwabo.
Bahamba ngendlela yabo, bamlinga, bamqumbisa uThixo, ngokudala abanye oothixo. Kodwa abazange benze abanye oothixo kuphela, endaweni kaThixo, nabo babembombozela bekhalaza, waba ngongawuthobeliyo umthetho wakhe, wonile njl.
UThixo wasicaphukela isimo sabo sengqondo. Ngalo lonke ixesha uThixo awayebanika a ithuba lokuguquka, kodwa amaxesha amaninzi, babengazimiselanga ukuguquka. UThixo wabona, ukuba abantu baKhe abamthembanga, kwaye ngenxa yoko abazange bamthobele uThixo.
UThixo wabonakalisa uthando lwakhe kubantu bakhe, ngokubakhupha ezweni laseYiputa, wabakhupha kwingcinezelo kaFaro, wabakhokelela emanzini entlango, nangokubakhusela imini nobusuku, ngokubatyisa, ngokubanyamekela, nangokwenza imimangaliso emininzi.
Ukulangazelela ubomi babo obudala
Kodwa kwakungafanelekanga ngokwaneleyo, ngokuba abantu bakhe bahlala bekhalaza. Babelangazelela ubomi babo bamandulo eYiputa, xa babenentabalala yokutya neziselo. Babekulungele ukubuyela emva baze bacinezelwe nguFaro, ngembuyekezo yokutya neziselo, kunokuba baphile ngenkululeko baze uThixo abe nguMlungiseleli wabo.
Abantu bakhe babenemvukelo yaye bengafuni ukumamela uThixo nokuthobela amazwi akhe. Ngoxa uThixo wayebathanda kakhulu, ngokuba belukhozo lweliso lakhe. Wayebafunela okona kulungileyo, kwaye wayefuna ukubanyamekela. Kodwa babengamthembi. Ngenxa yokungathobeli kwabo nangenxa yehambo yabo yemvukelo, UThixo wabathembisa, ukuze bangangeni ekuphumleni kwakhe.
Kwakukho indoda enye kuphela kweso sizukulwana, owavunyelwa ukuba angene ekuphumleni kukaThixo aze angene kwilizwe ledinga, yayinguYoshuwa ke lowo.
UYoshuwa wangena kwilizwe ledinga, kunye a entsha isizukulwana. UYoshuwa wayethembekile yaye emthobela uThixo. Wayigcina imiyalelo yakhe nomthetho waKhe.
Kwakutheni ukuze uYoshuwa agcine imiyalelo yaKhe? Kuba wayemthanda uThixo ngentliziyo yakhe yonke, waza wathembela kuYe.
Xa uthembela kuThixo, uya kumthobela
Ngaphandle kokholo, awuyi kukwazi ukumthemba nokumthobela. Xa uthembela ngokwenene uThixo, uze umthobele nawe. Uze ulandele iingcebiso zakhe. ILizwi laKhe liyakuba kuwe, kwaye uya kuligcina iLizwi laKhe, kwaye uhlale ukuthobela iLizwi laKhe.
Ngokukholwa kuYesu Kristu, nahlawulelwa nikhululwe emandleni obumnyama, kwaye ngoku ungokaYesu. Xa uphinde waba, uya kuba ngunyana kaThixo, uhlale ebukumkanini bakhe. Xa ungena eBukumkanini baKhe, uya kungena ekuphumleni kwakhe. Awuyi kungena ngemisebenzi yakho, kodwa ngokholo kuYesu Krestu nangokuzalwa ngokutsha ngoMoya.
Ngalo lonke ixesha uhlala kuKristu, uya kuhlala ekuphumleni kukaThixo
Ngalo lonke ixesha hlala uthobela kwiLizwi laKhe, kwaye ugcine imiyalelo yakhe, uya kuhlala kuKristu kwaye uhlale ekuphumleni kukaThixo. Ngoko ke, uya kufumana uxolo ebomini bakho.
Kodwa unokubushiya uBukumkani bakhe nanini na ufuna. Ngokukhawuleza ukuba ube abangathobeliyo iLizwi likaThixo; kwintando yaKhe, Imiyalelo yakhe, uya kumshiya nobukumkani bakhe, kwaye uya kuphuma ekuphumleni kukaThixo.
Xa ulishiya iLizwi laKhe, uya kulushiya uxolo lwakhe, kwaye siya kuwa.
Ngoko ke, usathana ufuna into enye kuphela, oko kukuzisa endaweni, apho niya kuba ngabangamthobeliyo uThixo, kwaye siphila ngokuvukela iLizwi laKhe.
Xa u vumela isono ebomini bakho, nize ningamthobeli uThixo, uya kufumana isiphithiphithi. Uxolo, Ukuphumla kukaThixo, owakhe wadibana naso ngaphambili, uya kususwa kuwe.
Kutheni abangendawo bengenaluxolo?
UThixo utsho eLizwini laKhe, ukuba abangendawo, abantu abaphila ngaphandle koThixo, abalufumani uxolo nokuba bafana nolwandle olulwayo:
Ke bona abangendawo banjengolwandle oluvunjululweyo;, xa ingenakuphumla, abamanzi abo avumbulula udaka nezibi. Akukho luxolo, utsho uThixo wam, kwabangendawo (uIsaya 57:20-21)
Abakhohlakele, abangakholwayo; ezo, abangamaziyo uYesu Kristu, phila ngaphandle koThixo, wenze ukuthanda kwabo. Abangakholwayo abafuni ngcebiso yaKhe, abalufuni uthando lwakhe, Inkathalo yakhe, okanye isibonelelo saKhe. Abangakholwayo bazibeke njengothixo phezu kobomi babo kwaye bazenzele ezabo izixhobo zehlabathi, abaye bathabatha amalungiselelo kaThixo. Bahlala esonweni nasebubini. Bahamba ngendlela yabo, indlela yenyama, okukhokelela ekufeni okungapheliyo.
‘Musa ukungena emendweni wabangendawo, kwaye ungahambi ngendlela yabantu abanobubi’
UThixo uyakulumkisa ukuba ungangeni kumendo wabangendawo, ningahambi ngendlela yamadoda anobubi. Ekuphela kwendlela yokungena kule ndlela kunye nendlela, kukuhlala sithobela amazwi kaThixo kwaye siqhubeke sihamba ngokholo nokumthobela.
Unokukhetha. Ngoko unokukhetha indlela yehlabathi, nayo yonke ingxokolo yayo, okanye ukhethe indlela kaYesu, oko kukunika ukuphumla, noxolo, yaye isikhokelela ebomini obungunaphakade.
Kholwa kuYesu, kwaye ugcine imiyalelo yakhe, Uya kunigcina ekuphumleni kwakhe nasekuxoleni kwakhe. Xa uyigcina imiyalelo Yakhe, emva koko uya kuhlala ekuphumleni kukaThixo kwaye ube noxolo ebomini bakho. Ewe, ngoko uxolo lwakho luya kuba njengomlambo, nobulungisa bakho njengamaza olwandle.
‘Yibani yityuwa yehlabathi’
