UYesu uyiNtloko yomzimba waKhe; ibandla (indibano yamakholwa). EBhayibhileni kuMateyu 16, UYesu wanika abafundi bakhe isithembiso kunye noyilo lwecawe yakhe. UYesu wakwenza kwacaca, Ibandla lakhe laliza kwakhiwa phezu kwesiseko esinjani kwanegunya eliya kuba nalo emhlabeni. Ngoko, lakhiwe phezu kwesiphi isiseko ibandla? Kule post blog, siza kujonga ukuba ithini iBhayibhile ngesiseko sebandla, nakwizithuba zeblogi ezilandelayo, ‘amasango esihogo’, ‘izitshixo zoBukumkani bamazulu', kunye 'ukubopha kunye nokukhulula’ kuya kuxutyushwa.
Isiseko sebandla
Athi kubo uYesu, Ke nina nithi ndingubani na?? Waphendula ke uSimon Petros wathi, UnguKristu, uNyana kaThixo ophilileyo. Waphendula ke uYesu, wathi kuye, Unoyolo wena, USimon Barjona: ngokuba akukutyhilelwanga oku yinyama negazi, kodwa nguBawo osemazulwini. Kwaye nditsho nawe, UnguPeter, yaye phezu kolu lwalwa ndiya kulakhela ibandla lam; Kwaye amasango esihogo akayi koyisa. Kwaye ndiya kukunika izitshixo zobukumkani bamazulu: kwaye nantoni na othe wakubopha emhlabeni iya kubotshwa emazulwini: kwaye othe wakukhulula emhlabeni, kokhululwa emazulwini (UMateyu 16:15-19)
Xa uYesu wabuza abafundi bakhe, lowo babeba unguye? USimon Petros wamphendula wathi: “UnguKristu, uNyana kaThixo ophilileyo!”
UYesu wathi kuPetros (unyana kaYona), ukuba wayenoyolo ngenxa yokuba inyama negazi azimtyhilelanga, kodwa uYise, Ngubani osezulwini. Kuba uYesu watsho kuMateyu 11:25: Ndiyabulela kuwe, Owu Bawo, Nkosi yezulu nomhlaba, ngokuba ezi zinto uzifihlile kwizilumko neengqondi, wabatyhilela iintsana.
“Kweli litye, Ndiya kulakha ibandla lam”
Kanye njengokuba uPetros wangqinayo malunga nokuba ungubani na uYesu, UYesu wangqina ukuba wayengubani na uPetros nokuba wayeya kulakhela phezu kolu lwalwa ibandla lakhe. Oku kuthetha ukuba uYesu wayeza kulakha ibandla lakhe phezu kobungqina bukaPetros: ukuba uYesu unguye uKristu; uNyana kaThixo ophilileyo.
UYesu wayengenakulakha ibandla laKhe phezu kobulumko nolwazi lwabantu abafundileyo; abaFarisi nabaSadusi. Akazange alakhele ibandla laKhe phezu kwababingeleli nombingeleli omkhulu. Kodwa uYesu wayeza kulakha ibandla lakhe phezu kobungqina bomlobi.
UYesu wathembisa uPetros; umlobi, ukuba Uyakulakha ibandla laKhe phezu kobungqina bakhe.
Esi sithembiso, awathi uYesu wamnika uPetros, yazaliseka ngomhla wePentekoste. Ngomhla wePentekoste abanyanisekileyo 120 abafundi nabalandeli bakaYesu Kristu, babhaptizwa baza bazaliswa nguMoya oyiNgcwele.
Kwaza ngequbuliso kwaphuma ezulwini isandi somoya ovuthuza ngamandla, wayizalisa yonke indlu ababehleli kuyo. Kwabonakala kubo iilwimi ezabekayo, ngathi zezomlilo, lwahlala phezu kwabo bonke ngabanye. Bazaliswa bonke nguMoya oyiNgcwele, baqala ukuthetha ngalwimi zimbi, njengoko umoya wabanika amazwi (IZenzo 2:2-4)
Ukuthululwa koMoya oyiNgcwele kwafika ngexesha elifanelekileyo. Kuba ngelo xesha amadoda amaninzi angamaYuda avela kumazwe ngamazwe ayehlanganisene eYerusalem ukuza kubhiyozela iShavuot. La madoda azinikeleyo abeva abafundi bethetha ngeelwimi zabo, ngemisebenzi emangalisayo kaThixo. Bamangaliswa, kodwa kanjalo ndiyathandabuza, kuba babengazi ukuba bacinge ntoni ngaloo nto. Abanye bade bahlekisa ngehambo yabafundi, ngokuthi basele kakhulu iwayini.
Ubungqina bukaPetros kumaYuda
Kodwa ke kwenzeka, ukuba idinga likaYesu lalizaliseka. UPetros, owayenentloni ngoYesu ngaphambili, wamkhanyela 3 amaxesha xa wayeyindalo endala, yaba yi indalo entsha ngobhaptizo ngoMoya oyiNgcwele kwaye oko kwabonakala ngokukhawuleza.
Wesuka wema ke uPetros nabalishumi elinamnye, ukuphakamisa ilizwi lakhe, wangqina ngokungafihlisiyo, ngokungafihlisiyo, nangegunya, ngaye uYesu Kristu; uNyana kaThixo ophilileyo.
UPetros wangqina ngokuzaliseka kwedinga, uThixo awawunika umprofeti uYoweli. UPetros wangqina ngoYesu Kristu, uNyana kaThixo ophilileyo. Wangqina ngoYesu’ hamba, Ukubethelelwa emnqamlezweni, Uvuko lwabafileyo, nendlela uYesu awaphakanyiswa ngayo ngasekunene kukaThixo, wamkele kuye uYise, idinga loMoya oyiNgcwele, Waphalala phandle, njengoko babebona yaye beva.
UPetros wathetha namadoda angamaYuda, ngokuba uThixo wamenza njani uYesu okwamnye, Ayembethelele emnqamlezweni, zombini * noKristu.
Ngobungqina bukaPetros nangamandla oMoya oyiNgcwele, bahlabeke ezintliziyweni zabo. Babuza kuPetros nabanye abafundi, into ababefanele bayenze. Wabaphendula ke uPetros: “Guquka kwaye ube ubhaptiziwe nonke ngabanye kwi Igama likaYesu Kristu ukuze kuxolelwe izono, kwaye niya kwamkela isipho soMoya oyiNgcwele” (IZenzo 2: 37-38)
Ubungqina bukaPetros kuzo zonke iintlanga
UPetros naye wayengumpostile wokuqala, owafumana isityhilelo sikaThixo, ukuba usindiso lwalubhekiselwe nakwiiNtlanga; abo babengengabo abenyama kumaYuda. Ngalesi sityhilelo sikaThixo kunye nokuthobela uMoya oyiNgcwele, UPetros wayalelwa ukuba ahambe, endlwini kaKorneli. Ngoku, UKorneli wayengumntu weentlanga, engenguye umYuda.
Ngoxa uPetros wayengqina ngoYesu Kristu, uNyana kaThixo ophilileyo, uMoya oyiNgcwele wabawela. Baqalisa ukuthetha ngeelwimi baza bamzukisa uThixo. Ngoxa uPetros wabona ukuba uMoya oyiNgcwele wawela phezu kweentlanga, akazange abone sizathu sokuba angababhaptizi emanzini. Ngoko ke wababhaptiza eGameni likaYesu Kristu (IZenzo 11). Ngaloo mini, Kananjalo iintlanga uThixo waziphe ukuguqukela ebomini.
UPetros wayengumpostile wokuqala, owangqina nge umnqophiso omtsha kuYesu Krestu kwaye wavula ucango lokushunyayelwa kwevangeli likaYesu Krestu. Wayengowokuqala, owangqinayo kumaYuda, nakuzo iintlanga;.
Obu yaba bubungqina, kwaye obu isebubungqina uYesu Krestu akha phezu kwabo ibandla laKhe. UYesu Krestu lilitye lembombo kwibandla laKhe, kwaye okoko sihlala sibubungqina baKhe kwaye sihlala sinyanisekile kuYe nakumazwi aKhe, Uyakuhlala eliLitye lembombo kwibandla laKhe.
Ke ngoku aningabo abasemzini, nabasemzini, kodwa amanye amaphecana kunye nabaNgcwele, nendlu kaThixo; Kwaye zakhiwe kwisiseko sabapostile nabaprofeti, UYesu Kristu ngokwakhe ulilitye lekona; Lowo uza kubeleka ngabani na lonke ulwakhiwo ekhulela itempile engcwele eNkosini: Ekuninakwe nani nikhelwe, ukuze nihlale kuye uYehova ngoMoya kaThixo (Kwabase-Efese 2:19-22)
Ubungqina bukaYesu Kristu
Ibandla lakhelwe phezu kwesiseko sobungqina, ukuba uYesu unguye uKristu, uNyana kaThixo ophilileyo. Kuphela kulo bungqina, uYesu uya kulakha ibandla laKhe. UYesu usalakha ibandla lakhe kobu bungqina, into ethetha ukuba akalakhi ibandla laKhe phezu kwezakwalizwi nakubulumko nolwazi lomntu (inzululwazi). Icawe; indibano yamakholwa, unokuba nolwazi oluninzi ngentloko lweBhayibhile, kodwa ningabi nalwazi ngokwasemoyeni nasekufeni.
UBukumkani bukaThixo buBukumkani bomoya yaye abunakubonwa ngeliso lenyama. Yiyeke loo nto indoda endala yenyama, okhokelwa ziingqondo zakhe, iimvakalelo, iimvakalelo, iingcinga, Ingqondo, njl. inokushumayela uBukumkani bukaThixo nokuzisa uBukumkani bukaThixo kulo mhlaba. Abafundi bezakwalizwi kunye neenkokeli zecawa banokuba nenkulu (isayensi) ulwazi lweBhayibhile kwaye lunokuthetha amazwi amnandi anomtsalane, kodwa phezu kwesi siseko, awuyi kuba nako ukwakha ibandla, ophilileyo ngokomoya nowoyisayo.
NguYesu Krestu kuphela onguMakhi webandla lakhe kwaye usebenzisa abantu, abakholwayo kuye, kwaye zilungiselelwe Beka ubomi babo kwaye mihla le bathabathe umnqamlezo wabo kwaye landela uYesu. Usebenzisa abantu, abazaliswe nguMoya oyiNgcwele nabamele uYesu; ILizwi ebomini babo kwaye babe ngamangqina akhe kude kube sekupheleni.
