UThixo ungumlilo odlayo
Zilumkeleni;, hleze niwulibale umnqophiso kaYehova uThixo wenu, awathi Wayenza nawe, uzenzele umfanekiso oqingqiweyo, okanye into efana nayo nantoni na, awakuwisela umthetho ngako uYehova uThixo wakho. Ngokuba uYehova uThixo wakho ungumlilo odlayo, nditsho uThixo onekhwele (iDuteronomi 4:23-24)
Kungoko samkela ubukumkani obungenakugungqiswa, masenze ubabalo, ukuze simkhonze ngawo uThixo ngokukholekileyo, sinokuhlonela nokoyika;: kuba uThixo wethu ungumlilo odlayo (IsiHebhere 12:28-29)
UThixo unguThixo ongcwele nolilungisa. Ilizwi lithi iNkosi uYehova ngumlilo odlayo osebenza ngobungendawo; ubugwenxa nezono zomntu. Umlilo uneentsingiselo ezininzi ezifuziselayo eBhayibhileni, kuquka ubungcwele nobulungisa bukaThixo.
UThixo wabathanda abantu bakhe waza wayityhila intando yakhe nendalo yakhe kubo ngokubanika umthetho kuMoses. ILizwi lakhe labahlula abantu bakhe kwiiNtlanga, Ngubani owehlabathi.
Ngalo lonke ixesha begcina umthetho, bazibamba abantu bakaThixo, ukuba bangenzi imisebenzi yeentlanga, ezo zazimbi emehlweni kaYehova.
UThixo wabakhokela abantu bakhe emini emqulwini welifu yaye ebusuku ngomqulu womlilo. UThixo wabakhusela abantu bakhe waza wahamba phambi kwabo njengomlilo odlayo waza wazihlisa iintlanga zabahedeni waza wabanikela ezandleni zabo.
UThixo wabanikela ezandleni zabo, kungekhona ngenxa yobulungisa babantu bakhe kodwa ngenxa yenkohlakalo yeentlanga ezingengawo. Kwaye ke uThixo waba ngumlilo odlayo kwiiNtlanga (Owu. iEksodus 13:21, iDuteronomi 9:1-6).
Kodwa ngelishwa, Abantu bakaThixo babengasoloko bephulaphula ilizwi lakhe. Amaxesha amaninzi babephambuka Imithetho yakhe nemimiselo, nazenza zonke ezo zinto zingendawo, nto leyo uYehova uThixo wabalelayo abantu bakhe. Kwaye ke abantu bakhe babandakanyeka kwimisebenzi engendawo, zinto ezo bezilisikizi kuThixo
Kuba uThixo enguThixo weLizwi laKhe, Waqhubana nekratshi nabavukeli babantu bakhe, abathe baba ngabachasi bakhe ngemisebenzi yabo, ngokweLizwi laKhe (Owu. uIsaya 30:27-30, UYeremiya 4:4).
Ngokuba itshinizile kakhulu kum indlu kaSirayeli nendlu kaYuda, utsho uYehova. Bamkhanyele uYehova, watsho, AsinguYe; abuyi kusifikela ububi; asiyi kubona krele nandlala: abaprofeti baya kuba ngumoya;, kwaye ilizwi alikho kubo: makwenziwe njalo kubo. Yini na ukuba utsho uYehova wemikhosi, Kuba nithetha eli Lizwi, khangela, Ndiya kuwenza umlilo amazwi am emlonyeni wakho, Kwaye aba bantu bakhala, Kwaye uya kubaqwenga (UYeremiya 5:11-14)
Ayililo igama lam njengomlilo? utsho uYehova; kwaye njengesando esityhoboza ilitye lingamaqhekeza? (UYeremiya 23:29)
ILizwi likaThixo linguMlilo odlayo
Kodwa ngubani na onokuyinyamezela imini yokuza kwakhe? ngubani na oya kuma ekubonakaleni kwakhe? ngokuba unjengomlilo womnyibilikisi, nanjengabacoci’ isepha: Uya kuhlala ke engumnyibilikisi, engumcoci wesilivere;: abahlambulule oonyana bakaLevi, Uzihlambulule njengegolide nesilivere, ukuze banikele kuYehova umnikelo ngobulungisa. Woba mnandi ke kuYehova umnikelo wakwaYuda nowaseYerusalem, njengakwimihla yamandulo, nanjengakwiminyaka yangaphambili. (uMalaki 3:2-4)
UYesu, uNyana kaThixo, liLizwi eliphilileyo kunye nembonakaliso kaThixo, owangena ukufana nomntu emhlabeni.
Njengoko uThixo wayengumlilo odlayo, ngoko ke noYesu wayengumlilo odlayo. Kungenxa yokuba uYesu washumayela inyaniso nobulungisa bukaThixo.
UYesu wathetha amazwi kaThixo, wabiza abantu ukuba beze inguquko waza wabonakalisa uBukumkani bukaThixo emhlabeni. Apho uYesu watyhila ubuxoki kunye nemisebenzi kasathana ebomini babantu kwaye wabatshabalalisa.
Kodwa asingabo bonke abantu ababenemincili ngokuza kukaYesu emhlabeni, kuba uYesu wabhenca ubuxoki nemisebenzi kaMtyholi kwaye eqhubana nobugwenxa nezono zomtyholi indoda endala yenyama.
Ukuya ku, ababemoyika uThixo, bewathanda amazwi akhe, UYesu wayeliLitye eliphilayo; iLiwa, abenawo amanzi aphilileyo;.
Kodwa kwabo, ababezithanda bona nehlabathi, UYesu wayeliLitye lesikhubekiso (Funda kwakhona: UYesu; lilitye lembombo elinqabileyo okanye iLitye lesikhubekiso?)
UYesu wathumela umlilo emhlabeni
ndize kuphosa umlilo ehlabathini; kwaye ndiza kuthini, ukuba sele libasiwe? Kukho ke lubhaptizo ndifanele ukubhaptizwa ngalo; kwaye nditshixiwe njani kude kufezeke! Niba ndize kungenisa uxolo emhlabeni;? Ndiyakuxelela, Hayi; ndisuke kanye ibe yiyantlukwano: Kuba kuya kuthi, kuthabathela kwalapha, kubekho abahlanu ndlwini-nye bebambene, abathathu ngokuchasene nababini, ababini bechasa abathathu. (ULuka 12:49-52)
Nangona uYesu engezanga emhlabeni ukuza kugweba ihlabathi, ngokuba belingekafiki ixesha laKhe lokugweba, UYesu wangqina ukuba imisebenzi yabo yayingendawo.
Ngoko ke oonyana bakaMtyholi (abasebenzi bobutshinga) wayefuna ukususa uYesu kwaye acime ukuKhanya, ukuze baqhubeke nemisebenzi yabo engendawo, nobomi babo ebumnyameni, ngaphandle kokuphazanyiswa kunye nokugwetywa.
Kwenzeka into efanayo namhlanje. Zininzi, abangabehlabathi, nabathanda ukucima izibane, ezikhanyisa ebumnyameni. Kwaye ke basonga ubuxoki kwisiqingatha-inyaniso, ukuze ubumnyama bungene bungabonakali kubomi bamakholwa. Nje ukuba ubumnyama bungene, iya kwanda. Okokuqala kubomi bekholwa, ngoko kubomi bamanye amakholwa, ebangela ukuba iBandla lichaphazeleke kwaye ukuKhanya kucinywe.
UMoya oyiNgcwele ngumlilo odlayo
Kwaye xa imini yePentekosti yayiza ngokupheleleyo, baye bonke bemxhelo mnye ndaweni-nye. Kwaza ngequbuliso kwaphuma ezulwini isandi somoya ovuthuza ngamandla, wayizalisa yonke indlu ababehleli kuyo. Kwabonakala kubo iilwimi ezabekayo, ngathi zezomlilo, lwahlala phezu kwabo bonke ngabanye. Kwaye bonke bazaliswa nguMoya oyiNgcwele, baqala ukuthetha ngalwimi zimbi, njengoko umoya wabanika amazwi (IZenzo 2:1-4)
Kanye njengokuba uThixo noYesu bengumlilo odlayo, uMoya oyiNgcwele ukwangumlilo odlayo. Ngokuba ngomhla wePentekoste, wehla uMoya oyiNgcwele ezulwini, wayizalisa indlu, apho babehlanganisene khona bonke abafundi bakaYesu, kwabonakala kubo iilwimi ezingathi zezomlilo, eyayihleli phezu komntu ngamnye kubo. Ngalo mzuzu, bonke abafundi, ababekho kwigumbi eliphezulu bazaliswa nguMoya oyiNgcwele kaThixo.
UMoya oyiNgcwele wathabatha indawo yakhe kubomi bendalo entsha wabanika iilwimi ezingathi zezomlilo, eyayishumayela inyaniso nobulungisa bukaThixo.
Abafundi baba ngabakhonzi bobulungisa; amadangatye omlilo, owashumayela imisebenzi emangalisayo kaThixo nobulungisa bakhe wabiza abantu, ababengabantu bakaThixo, ukuya inguquko.
ngenxa yeelwimi zomlilo, abantu batyumkile ezintliziyweni zabo kwaye 3000 imiphefumlo yaguquka yabhaptizwa kwaye yamkela uMoya oyiNgcwele kaThixo ngomhla wePentekoste
Ezo, abanoMoya oyiNgcwele kwaye bazinikele kwiLizwi likaThixo kwaye bathobele imiyalelo yaKhe, uya kuba njengoYesu.
Baya kuba njengoYesu, owathumela umlilo ehlabathini, zisa inyaniso nobulungisa bukaThixo emhlabeni. Ngenxa yobulungisa babo kuKristu nokuhamba kwabo kobulungisa, baya kububhenca ubungendawo behlabathi baze bangqine ukuba imisebenzi yalo ingendawo.
UMoya oyiNgcwele, Umoya weNyaniso, ohleli kuzo, baya kungqina ngoYesu Krestu kwaye bohlwaye ihlabathi ngesono, Ubulungisa, nomgwebo ngenxa yomgwebo Umsebenzi ogqibeleleyo KuYesu Krestu.
Umntu omtsha uya kubizela aboni enguqukweni nasekususweni kwesono, ukuze bangabi sabotshelelwa ebukumkanini bobumnyama nobokufa, baya kudla ubomi benkululeko, nikuKristu, nisebukumkanini bukaThixo.
ILizwi likaThixo liyayidla indoda endala
Kuba bonke baya kugalelwa ityuwa ngomlilo, Wonke umbingelelo wogalelwa ityuwa ngetyuwa. Ityuwa ilungile: ke ukuba ityuwa ithe ayaba nasongo, Niya kuyinonga ngantoni na?? Yibani netyuwa kuni, nibe noxolo omnye komnye (Phawula 9:49-50)
UMoya oyiNgcwele uthetha kwaloo mazwi kaThixo, leyo uYesu wayithetha ebantwini ibe ibhalwe eBhayibhileni. Ezo, abangabakhe bamamele amazwi akhe, uya kuthobela amazwi aKhe kwaye athethe amazwi akhe aya kuhlala eluthandweni lwakhe.
ILizwi likaThixo ngu Isipili kubo kwaye ubabonise, abangobani kuYesu Kristu.
Nangona iLizwi likaThixo lisisipili somntu omtsha, ngaxeshanye kaThixo. ULizwi likrele lomoya, owahlula umoya nomphefumlo, nomlilo odlayo, odla indoda enkulu.
Kuba nangona umntu uye waba sisidalwa esitsha kuYesu Kristu kummandla womoya kwaye wamkele isimo sakhe, olu tshintsho kufuneka lubonakale kummandla wendalo.
Ke ngoko umntu omtsha uya kudlula kwinkqubo yongcwaliso kwaye uya kuhlanjululwa kwaye asulungekiswe ngamazwi kaThixo, ukuze imisebenzi kunye neentsalela zomntu omdala ziqwengwe ngamazwi kaThixo kwaye kuphela umntu omtsha.
ILizwi likaThixo licacile kwaye lisityhilela isiqhamo soMoya kunye nemisebenzi yenyama kwaye ijongene nomntu omdala ngemisebenzi yakhe. Ngalo mzuzu, umntu unokukhetha ukuthobela iLizwi aze ayisuse le misebenzi yenyama, ukuze umntu ahlanjululwe angcwaliswe okanye umntu angalithobeli iLizwi alikhanyele iLizwi kwaye athobele inyama kwaye aqhubeke esenza le misebenzi yenyama. (Funda kwakhona: Ingqondo engafanelekanga).
Anazi na, ukuba abangemalungisa abayi kubudla ilifa uBukumkani bukaThixo? Musani ukulahlekiswa: Abahenyuzi, okanye ii-idollaters, okanye abakrexezi, okanye ifakwe, nabahlukumezelayo nabantu (izenzo zobufanasini), Namasela, okanye i-covetous, okanye amanxila, okanye abaphuluki, okanye abakhupheli, Uya kubudla ilifa uBukumkani bukaThixo (1 KwabaseKorinte 6:9-10).
Ngoku imisebenzi yenyama ibonakalisiwe, zeziphi ezi; Ukukrexeza, uhenyuzo, ukungahlambuluki, I-Lascivied, Unqulo-zithixo, ubugqwirha, intiyo, umahluko, ukufuya, ingqumbo, Imbambano, ukumiselwa, i-heredies, Umona, ukubulala, ukunxila, impindezelo, kwaye kanjalo: yeyo, Njengoko bendikuxelele ngexesha elidlulileyo, Ukuze benze izinto ezinjalo abayi kulifumana ilifa uBukumkani bukaThixo (kwabaseGalati 5:19-21)
Malume emalunguleni akho asehlabathini; uhenyuzo, ukungahlambuluki, I-Inordinate Uthando, Ingqiniso lobubi, kunye nokubawa, engowasezithixo: Zeziphi izinto’ Ngenxa ingqumbo kaThixo yeza abantwana bokungathobeli: Kwindawo enahambe ngayo, oko benihleli kuzo. Ke ngoku nani zilahleni zonke ezi zinto; umsindo, ingqumbo, ububi, ukunyelisa, Unxibelelwano olungcolileyo ngaphandle komlomo wakho. Ulele enye kwenye, Ndibona ukuba niyilahle ixhego ngezenzo zakhe ezindala (KwabaseKolose 3:5-10)
Siyazi ke ukuba umthetho mhle, ukuba umntu ulisebenzisa ngokusemthethweni; Ukwazi oku, ukuze umthetho akwenziweyo kwindoda elilungisa, kodwa ngongendawo, ongathobeliyo, Kwabangamhloneliyo, naboni, Ukungakhathali kwaye ungcolise, kubabulali bootata nababulali boomama, kubabulali, Kwabahenyuzi, Kwabo bazenza inqambi ngokoluntu (izenzo zobufanasini), Abathengisi, amaxoki, Kwabantu abacociweyo, Kwaye ukuba ikho enye into echasene nemfundiso yesandi; ngokweendaba ezilungileyo zozuko lukaThixo onoyolo, ebezinikele ekuthembeni kwam (1 uTimoti 1:8-11)
Amazwi kasathana adla umntu omtsha
Kuba usathana esazi ukuba linamandla kangakanani iLizwi likaThixo kunye nokuba amazwi kaThixo enza ntoni ebomini babantu, kwaye akafuni ukuphulukana namandla akhe ebomini babantu kwaye akafuni ukuba ubukumkani bakhe buphangwe, uyawaba abulale amazwi kaThixo ebomini bamakholwa.
UMtyholi uya kwenza nantoni na ukugcina amakholwa ekude neBhayibhile; iLizwi likaThixo kangangoko kunokwenzeka. Kuba iLizwi likaThixo lityhila inyaniso kaThixo kwaye libhenca ubuxoki bomtyholi.
Ke ngoko usathana ubagcina bexakekile kwaye edala zonke iintlobo zeziphazamiso kunye ukuzonwabisa, eqinisekisa ukuba umntu uchitha lonke ixesha lakhe elixabisekileyo kwizinto zeli hlabathi; ubukumkani bakhe, endaweni yeLizwi nezinto zoBukumkani bukaThixo.
Uyabondla ngokuzonwabisa kwakhe, (ezentlalo)amajelo eendaba nemfundo, nangeemvakalelo, Ulawula iingqondo zabantu.
Ulawula iingqondo zabo ngamazwi akhe, ezithethwa ngabakhonzi bakhe, kodwa uyawaphikisa amazwi kaThixo, kwaye enze amakholwa athandabuze amazwi kaThixo kwaye atshabalalise imbewu kaThixo ebomini babantu
UMtyholi uhlwayela imbewu eyonakeleyo; ilele kubomi babantu kwaye izisa intshabalalo ebomini babantu. Kwaye ke umtyholi utshabalalisa kwaye uqwenge abantu abaninzi emhlabeni kwaye abakhokelele kuYehova enzonzobileni.
Ukuba awumameli iLizwi likaThixo kwaye ungawathobeli amazwi kaThixo kwaye ungawathobeli Susa ixhego (inyama) uyidle uyigqibe imisebenzi yakhe, koko waphulaphuleni amazwi kaMtyholi, niwathobele, usathana uya kumqwenga umntu omtsha ngobomi bakho njengendoda endala.
Ukuba awuyidli inyama yakho ngeLizwi likaThixo, kodwa hlwayelelani enyameni yenu, wothi ekugqibeleni ikuqwenge inyama. Kuba iLizwi lisitsho, ukuba uhlwayela enyameni yakho, uya kuvuna ubuqhophololo (kwabaseGalati 6:7-8)
Ke ngoko kuyafuneka ukuba ulahle umtyholi njengentloko ebomini bakho. Ukwenza njani oko? Ngokungamphulaphuli nangokungakwenzi ukuthanda kwakhe nokungawathobeli amazwi akhe. Musa ukunikezela kwiminqweno yakho yenyama kunye neminqweno, ke yibani negunya phezu kwazo, nilawule inyama yenu.
UYesu uya kubhaptiza wonke umntu
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, Lu 3:16-17).
Lonke ikholwa elizelwe ngokutsha liya kudlula kwinkqubo yokungcwaliswa kwaye liya kuhlanjululwa ngomlilo ongcwele ngeLizwi nangoMoya wakhe ngexesha lobomi balo emhlabeni.. Ukuze umntu omtsha avele kwaye abonakale kwaye umntu omdala uyafa.
UYesu; ILizwi liya kubabhaptiza bonke abantu ngomlilo kwaye abantu bangazigqibela ngokwabo xa oku kusenzeka; ngexesha lokuphila emhlabeni okanye ngoMhla woMgwebo.
Umntu angakhetha ukukholwa kwaye azinikele kuYesu Krestu kwaye aguquke, zalwa ngokutsha kwaye ufumane ubhaptizo ngoMoya oyiNgcwele, Ngubani oya kuhlambulula umntu ngomlilo wakhe ongcwele (inyaniso nobulungisa bukaThixo) eya kuqwenga ixhego, okanye umntu angakhetha ukwala uYesu Krestu ahlale ixhego abhaptizwe ngoMhla woMgwebo nguYesu.; uLizwi ngomlilo edikeni lomlilo elingunaphakade.
