Ukulunga kukaYesu
KwiTestamente eNtsha, sibona efanayo isimilo sikaThixo kuYesu Kristu. Oku akuqhelekanga, ngokuba emva kokuba uYesu ebhaptiziwe, uMoya kaThixo; UMoya oyiNgcwele, wehla weza kuYesu, wahlala kuye.
UYesu waye wamkele ubume bukaThixo kuye, kuquka ukulunga kwakhe. Ukulunga kwakhe kwatyhilwa yinyaniso, ukuba uxolele izono zomntu, wabaphilisa bonke abafayo, ekhupha needemon. Ewe, UYesu wakhulula abantu kwingcinezelo yomtyholi, nokuba bebefanele, okanye hayi.
UYesu weza emhlabeni ukuze enze okulungileyo. Weza emhlabeni ukuza kuzalisekisa umsebenzi kaYise. UYesu wayengumfanekiso kaThixo. Yonke into eyenziwa nguYesu, Wayembonile utata wakhe; UThixo wayenguYesu umzekelo wakhe.
uThixo, UYesu noMoya oyiNgcwele banye. Abakwazi ukusebenza ngokuzimeleyo. Babotshelelwe omnye komnye ngonaphakade.
Kwakukho umzuzu nje, xa bohlukene omnye komnye kwaye kwakungexesha Ukubethelelwa emnqamlezweni. Xa uYesu wathwala zonke izono kunye nabo bonke ubugwenxa behlabathi. Ngalo mzuzu, UYesu wahlulwa kuThixo, kuba uThixo wayengenako ubudlelane nesono ngoko ke uThixo wamshiya uYesu. Ukuba ungathanda ukufunda ngakumbi ngale nto, unokufunda le post ilandelayo: ‘kugqityiwe‘.
UYesu weza kukwenza okulungileyo waza wabonisa ukulunga kwakhe
UMoya weNkosi uphezu kwam, ngokuba endithambisele ukushumayela iindaba ezilungileyo kumahlwempu; Undithume ukuba ndiphilise abantliziyo zaphukileyo, ukuvakalisa inkululeko kubathinjwa, nokubuyiselwa kokubona kweemfama, Ukuba abakhulule abaqobekileyo, tvakalisani umnyaka owamkelekileyo weNkosi (Luk 4:18-19)
Hayi indlela awabuthanjiswa ngayo uYesu waseNazarete kunye noMoya oyiNgcwele kwaye ngamandla: Ngubani ohamba nenza okuhle, Ukuphilisa bonke abacinezelwa nguMtyholi; Kuba uThixo wayenaye (Yenza 10:38)
UYesu wayengenakuwufeza umsebenzi wakhe, wade wahlanjululwa, uthanjisiwe, kwaye nibhaptize ngoMoya oyiNgcwele. Igama elithi ukuthambisa livela kwigama lesiGrike elithi ‘chriõ’ (G5548 Concordance Strong) kwaye kuthetha: ukuthambisa okanye ukuhlikihla ngeoli, yiyo i, (ngentsingiselo) ukungcwalisela iofisi okanye inkonzo yenkolo: – thambisa
Wayethanjiswa, nto leyo ethetha ukuba Wabekwa kwindawo yoku zalisekisa icebo likaThixo.
UYesu weza esenyameni, kodwa behamba ngokoMoya
UYesu weza esenyameni kwaye wamkela indalo kaThixo; UMoya oyiNgcwele. UYesu weza esenyameni, kodwa wahamba ngokoMoya, kungekhona ngokwenyama. Nangona wayenamandla okuhamba emva kwenyama.
Kodwa uYesu wayemthanda uYise, wahamba ngemithetho yaKhe. Wahamba ngoko ke uYesu elandela uMoya, wavelisa isiqhamo ukulunga. UYesu wahamba wenza okuhle, wabaphilisa bonke ababecinezelwe nguMtyholi, Kuba uThixo wayenaye.
Kanye njengokuba uThixo wahlangula waza wahlangula umntu kwiTestamente eNdala, Kwakhona uYesu wakhulula umntu kwiTestamente eNtsha.
Khumbula: UMnqophiso Omtsha uye wabakho, xa uYesu wangena kwiNgcwele waza wahlala phantsi kwisihlalo sokucamagusha ngasekunene kukaYise (Funda kwakhona 'Yintoni i-Ascension Day?')
Xa uYesu wayewufezile umsebenzi wakhe emhlabeni, wahlala phantsi esihlalweni sokucamagusha, naxa uMoya oyiNgcwele wathunyelwa emhlabeni, kwaba nokwenzeka ukuba uluntu lube wazalwe ngokutsha ngoMoya kunye ube sisidalwa esitsha, ngokukholwa kuYesu Kristu, emenza uMsindisi neNkosi, namkele uMoya oyiNgcwele.
Ukulunga kwendalo entsha
I likholwa elizelwe ngokutsha, ngubani oye waba indalo entsha, ubomi bakhe ubuncamile emanzini (ubhaptizo) avuswe esebomini obutsha, ukuba angaphindi athabathe ubomi bakhe bakudala, kodwa baqale ukuhamba ngokoMoya. Ubomi obudala; ukuhamba emva kokuba inyama iphelile, kwaye ngoku lixesha, ukuhamba ngokoMoya. Ubume bukaThixo buhlala kwindalo entsha.
Ngoko ke, xa sinemvelo yakhe ihleli kuthi, kufuneka siphile ngokwemithetho Yakhe nentando Yakhe. Xa siphila emva kwentando yakhe, siya ngokuzenzekelayo zalisekisa umthetho yoMoya.
Nantsi lapho Hayi ukuvukela ngakumbi kuye, kunye neLizwi likaThixo. Kuba sinako oko uThixo anako; UMoya wakhe nathi singabaKhe. Kanye njengoThixo noYesu, indalo entsha nayo iya kuhamba emva koMoya, ukwenza okulungileyo nokuhamba ngokulungileyo, nithwale isiqhamo ukulunga.
UYesu wayizalisekisa intando kaYise
Kanye njengokuba uYesu wakuzalisekisa oko Intando kaYise, uya kuyizalisekisa i Intando kaYesu, nto leyo ke yintando kaBawo. Xa sivelisa isiqhamo ukulunga, uhambe ngokulungileyo, sihlangula abantu kwingcinezelo yomtyholi, kanye njengokuba uYesu wenzayo nanjengoko uThixo wenzayo.
UYesu wade wasithembisa, ukuze senze izinto ezinkulu kunezakhe. Enye yezi zinto ezinkulu inokuba kukuba siyakwazi ukunika ubomi obungunaphakade. UYesu wayengenakuyenza loo nto okwangoku, Wayenokuxolela izono kuphela, ngokuba ubengekabethelelwa emnqamlezweni, Umsebenzi wakhe wawungekagqitywa.
Wayengazange uthathe izitshixo, ekufeni nasesihogweni; Wayengekalithabathi igunya kumtyholi waze wambopha lowo unamandla.
Kodwa xa Yena ndathatha izitshixo ekufeni nasesihogweni, Wafumana zonke igunya ezulwini nasemhlabeni.
Xa siphila kwaye sihlala kuye (ilizwi), sinamandla phezu komtyholi, abafileyo nesihogo siya kubadlisa ubomi abantu.
Xa sihamba emva koMoya kwaye sithwala isiqhamo sokulunga, siya kumthanda ummelwane wethu. Siza kubahlangula abantu abacinezelwe ngumtyholi, siya kubaphilisa, Bakhulule koomoya abakhohlakeleyo, ubaxolele izono zabo, ubadlise ubomi.
UYesu weza kunceda abantu
Oko kukulunga, iBhayibhile ithetha ngayo. UYesu weza kuye khonza abantu, Akazanga ukuhamba ngekratshi nodumo; ukubonisa wonke umntu, ukuba wayenguNyana kaThixo. Asimi ngaphezu kweNkosi yethu, nathi sifanele sibakhonze abantu size sibahlangule kuyo nayiphi na ingcinezelo, angabi ngukumkani phezu kwabantu.
Sinokwenza okulungileyo kuphela, uhambe ngokulunga kwaKhe, xa sihamba ngokoMoya, kungekhona ngokwenyama.
UYesu wenza inyama yaKhe yalulamela uMoya wakhe, waza ngenxa yoko wahamba emva koMoya. Sifanele silandele umzekelo waKhe, size siyithobele kuMoya inyama yethu, ukuze sihambe ngokoMoya, sibe njengeNkosi yethu.
Xa thina hlaziya iingqondo zethu ngeLizwi likaThixo (enguMzekelo wethu), siya kuba njengeLizwi kwaye siya kuhamba njengoko uYesu wahambayo.
Asisenasingxengxezo, ukuya hayi yibani njengaYe, ngokuba sinendalo yakhe ehleli ngaphakathi kwethu; uMoya wakhe oyiNgcwele.
Ukulunga kweziqhamo
Ukulunga kwesiqhamo yinxalenye yendalo entsha. Ngoko ke, ukuba uye waba sisidalwa esitsha, wovelisa isiqhamo esihle. Okuthetha ukuba umthande ummelwane wakho njengoko uzithanda ngako kwaye unikele ukulunga kwakhe kubo. Musa ukujonga inyani, nokuba bayakufanelekela okanye akunjalo, ukuba bayayifuna, banike nje.
Ubungafanelanga ukulunga kweNkosi kananjalo, kodwa uyifumene xa uyicelile. Olo lubabalo lukaThixo.
Xa umntu ekuphethe kakubi, musa ukubathwala uxanduva. Mxolele loo mntu kwaye uxolele isono sakhe(s), unamandla okwenza oko. Vumela iidemon zendalo zingakubambi kuwe kwaye zikuphathe, kodwa imvelo kaThixo mayilawule kuni, ukuze nithwale isiqhamo esihle, uhambe ngokulunga kwaKhe.
