Ke kaloku abathile bakubaFarisi bakuva amazwi kaYesu, ukuba uthe weza umgwebo ehlabathini, ukuze abangaboniyo babone, bathi ababonayo babe ziimfama, babuza uYesu ukuba baziimfama na. Wabaphendula uYesu, ukuba ubumfama, ubufanele ungabi nasono: kodwa ngoku uthi, Siyabona; isono senu sihleli. Wayethetha ukuthini uYesu ngaloo nto? Athetha ukuthini la mazwi kaYesu ebandleni? Ngaba icawe ibona okanye imfama?
UYesu wenza iimfama zabona, ziimfama ezibonayo
Imfama yaphinda yabona, ngenxa yokuba wayeweva waza wakholwa amazwi kaYesu waza wawathobela waza wenza oko uYesu wayemyalele ukuba akwenze. Wayekholelwa ukuba uYesu wayekho (kwaye isekhona) uKristu. Kodwa abaFarisi, ababengabaphengululi bomthetho nabaprofeti yaye babefanele ukuba babeqhelene namazwi nokuthanda kukaThixo neziprofeto ezingoKristu babefanele bamqonde uYesu njengoNyana kaThixo noKristu., kodwa babengawakholelwa amazwi kaYesu kwaye bengakholelwa ukuba uYesu wayenguKristu, kodwa yamgatyile.
Kanye njengokuba babengakholelwa ukuba uThixo wayethumele uYohane umBhaptizi emhlabeni ukuze alungise indlela yokuza kukaYesu Krestu kwaye ke ngoko bala ukukholwa nokuthobela amazwi nomyalelo kaYohane umBhaptizi nokuguquka babhaptizwe. (o.a. UMateyu 21:32, Funda kwakhona: UYohane umBhaptizi, indoda engazange iguqe).
AbaFarisi babenezikhundla eziphakamileyo yaye babezingca yaye bethembele kobabo ubulumko, ukuqonda, izakhono, kwaye isebenza.
Babezenza amalungisa yaye bezigqala njengamadoda angamalungisa, ngelixa imvelo yabo yayingendawo kwaye imisebenzi yabo yayingahambelani nentando kaThixo.
AbaFarisi’ ingqondo yamfanyekiswa ngokomoya. Babecinga ukuba babengabo bahlukileyo kumthetho kwaye babephakanyiselwe ngaphezu kwabantu. Eli kratshi lababopha ebukhobokeni laza labathintela ukuba bazithobe baguquke bajike kwiindlela zabo ezimbi babuyele kuThixo..
Ikratshi lomntu alinakuze lizise umntu enguqukweni, kodwa ikratshi lomntu liya kubangela ukuba umntu ahambe ebumnyameni kwaye aqhubeke esonweni.
Lowo uthi uyabona, kodwa aqhubeke esonweni, isono sakhe sihleli
Watsho njalo uYesu, Mna ndizele ugwebo kweli hlabathi, ukuze abangaboniyo babone; bathi ababonayo babe ziimfama. Baziva ezo nto nabathile kubaFarisi ababenaye, Yathi kuye, Ngaba nathi siziimfama? Wathi kubo uYesu, Ukuba beniziimfama, ningabi nasono: ke ngoku nithi, Siyabona; ngoko ke isono senu sihleli. (UYohane 9:39-41)
Xa abanye abaFarisi babuza uYesu ukuba baziimfama nabo na, Wabaphendula uYesu, ukuba ubuziimfama, ubungenasono, kodwa ngoku uthi, Siyabona, isono senu sihleli. UYesu wayesithi ukuba abaFarisi, abamisebenzi yabo yayingendawo ngoko ke benza izinto ezichasene ngokupheleleyo nentando kaThixo kwaye abazange bawathobele amazwi kunye nentando kaThixo., babeziimfama ngoko ngebengenasono. Kodwa kuba bathi babona, ngelixa babehamba ebumnyameni kwaye benza izinto ezichasene nentando kaThixo kwaye abazange bawathobele amazwi kunye nentando kaThixo kwaye ngoko bona, isono sabo sihleli.
UYesu wangqina, ukuba imisebenzi yenyama ingendawo kwaye wonke umntu, lowo unyamezelayo esonweni, uhamba ebumnyameni, enze iinkanuko nokuthanda kukayise uMtyholi, ongumlawuli weli hlabathi. Ukuba umntu uthe wahlala esonweni, akahambi ekukhanyeni, akakwenzi ukuthanda kukaThixo, akangokaThixo kodwa uMtyholi. (Owu. UYohane 8:44, KwabaseKolose 1:21, uTito 1:16, 1 UYohane 3:4-10).
Nangona umntu enokuthi uyabona, umntu ngokwenene uyimfama ngokomoya, ngokuba umntu akayiboni imisebenzi yenyama nobumnyama, kwaye ukuba umntu uyayiqonda into yokuba imisebenzi yenyama nobumnyama ingendawo, kodwa zenzeni kunjalo, umntu lowo uya kufumana ugwebo olukhulu (Funda kwakhona: Ngaba unokuqhubeka ukona phantsi kobabalo?).
Benza ntoni abaFarisi?
Ngoxa abaFarisi babezenza amalungisa yaye bezizele yaye becinga ukuba bahamba ngokuhlonela uThixo, UYesu wayecinga ngenye indlela. KuMateyu 23, phakathi kwabanye, UYesu wayethetha etempileni kwindimbane nabafundi bakhe ngokuhamba nangemisebenzi yabaFarisi nababhali..
UYesu akazange athule kodwa wayibhenca imisebenzi yabo.
Kakade babebaninzi phakathi kwabalawuli, ababekholwa kuYesu, kodwa abazange bavume, hleze bagxothwe endlwini yesikhungu, kuba babethanda uzuko oluvela ebantwini, ngaphezu kozuko oluvela kuThixo (UYohane 12:42-43).
Kodwa uninzi lwabaFarisi nababhali babengabakhokeli abaziimfama, abahanahanisi, amangcwaba amhlophe, iinyoka, Isizukulwana samarhamba, abangahlalanga enyanisweni kaThixo, kanye njengoyise wabo uMtyholi, ongazange ahlale enyanisweni kaThixo kodwa ngenxa yekratshi lakhe waba ngongakholwayo waza wawa kwisikhundla sakhe (Funda kwakhona: Idabi egadini).
Nangona ababhali nabaFarisi babehleli esihlalweni sikaMoses baza bafundisa abantu, abazange bakwenze oko babekufundisa yaye babeyalela abantu ukuba bakwenze. Bayibopha imithwalo enzima kwaye inzima ukuba bayithwale kwaye bayibeke emagxeni abantu, abavumanga ukuwashukumisa nangomnwe lo wabo.
Kuphela nje yonke imisebenzi yabo babeyenza ukuze babonwe ngabantu kwaye banconywe kwaye banqulwe ngabantu. Ngoko ke, bayenza imisebenzi ngezizathu zokuzingca (Funda kwakhona: Uyintoni umahluko phakathi kukaYesu neenkokeli zonqulo?).
AbaFarisi babengabahanahanisi nabakhokeli abaziimfama
AbaFarisi nababhali babengabahanahanisi; abadlali benqanaba lobomi, abadlale indima yento ababengeyiyo, kuba:
- Babuvala ubukumkani bukaThixo ebantwini, kuba abangenanga bona ngokwabo, akabavumela nabangenayo ukuba bangene
- Badla izindlu zabahlolokazi kwaye behanahanisa benza umthandazo omde
- Bajikeleza ulwandle nomhlaba ukuba benze abe mnye ongena ebuYudeni; bathi, akuba enziwe, bamenza umntwana wesihogo ngokuphindwe kabini kunabo.
- Isishumi esihlawulwayo setyeleba, idile, nekumin, yaye wayezishiyile ezona zinto zinzima zomthetho, isigwebo, inceba, kunye nokholo.
- Babengabakhokeli abaziimfama, owahluza imbuzane, waginya inkamela
- bahlambulula umphandle wendebe nesitya;, kodwa ngaphakathi bezele kukuphanga nokugqithisela.
- Ayefana namangcwaba aqatywe mhlophe, eyabonakala intle ngenene ngaphandle, kodwa ngaphakathi ebezele ngamathambo abantu abafileyo, nako konke ukungcola. Ngokunjalo nabo babonakala bengamalungisa ebantwini, kodwa ngaphakathi bezele luhanahaniso nobutshinga.
- Bakha amangcwaba abaprofeti, Wawahombisa amangcwaba amalungisa, Uye wathi, Ukuba babekho ngemihla yooyise, ngebengabangahlulelananga nabo ngegazi labaprofeti. Ngako oko babengamangqina kubo ngokwabo, nokuba babengabantwana babo bababulala abaprofeti, babeya kuyizalisa imilinganiso yooyise.
AbaFarisi nababhali babeziinyoka, isizukulwana samarhamba. Babeza kuwusaba njani umgwebo wesihogo?
UYesu waprofeta waza waxelela abaFarisi nababhali, ukuze abathumele abaprofeti, nezilumko, nababhali: baye inxenye kubo bayibulala, bayibethelela eminqamlezweni; kodwa inxenye kubo yabatyakatya ezindlwini zabo zesikhungu, nibatshutshise kwimizi ngemizi:, ukuze lifike phezu kwabo lonke igazi elinobulungisa elaphalazwa emhlabeni, lithabathela egazini lika-Abheli ilungisa, lizise egazini likaZekariya, unyana kaBharakiya, abambulala phakathi kwetempile nesibingelelo (Funda kwakhona: Kutheni le nto uThixo engamhloneli umnikelo kaKayin?).
Benza ntoni abaFarisi emva kokujongana neLizwi?
Emva kokuba uYesu ewathethile la mazwi waza wajongana nabaFarisi nababhali ngezono zabo, abaFarisi nababhali babenokukhetha kwakhona, ngokujongana neLizwi kunye nokweyiseka kwesono sabo, ukuba bazithobe kwaye baguquke okanye hayi.
AbaFarisi bakhetha le yokugqibela, apho amazwi kaYesu azaliseka kwaye awazange abulale uYesu Kristu kuphela, uNyana kaThixo, waza waMbethelela emnqamlezweni, kodwa kananjalo balitshutshisa iBandla laKhe bada babulala abathile beBandla ukuze bavale umlomo amakholwa nokucima ukukhanya (Funda kwakhona: Indlela ubumnyama obucima ngayo ukukhanya).
Kwaye oku kusenzeka, ngenxa yokuba kwaloo moya wawusebenza kubaFarisi nababhali usasebenza yaye usasebenza kubomi beenkokeli ezininzi zecawa. (Funda kwakhona: Zifana njani iinkokeli zabantu bakaThixo zamandulo nezangoku?)
UYesu nabapostile balumkisa amakholwa ngabaprofeti bobuxoki nabafundisi bobuxoki
Ngenxa yoKristu bobuxoki, nabaprofeti ababuxoki, baya kunyuka, kwaye uya kuwutsalwa imiqondiso nemimangaliso, ukulahlekisa, Ukuba kunokwenzeka, Nditsho nonyulo. Kodwa thabatheni: khangela, Ndizimisele ngako konke izinto (Phawula 13:22-23 (Kwakhona uMateyu 24:24-25))
Lumkela Abaprofeti bobuxoki, Eza kuwe kwimpahla yegusha, Kodwa ngaphakathi ziingcuka eziqwengayo. Niya kubazi ngeziqhamo zabo (UMateyu 7:15-16)
Kodwa kwakukho nabaprofeti bobuxoki phakathi kwabantu, njengokuba naphakathi kwenu kuya kubakho abafundisi ababuxoki, abaya kungenisa bucala amahlelo entshabalalo, bemkhanyela uMnini-nto-zonke owabathengayo, bazisele intshabalalo emsinya. Baninzi abaya kulandela intshabalalo yabo; eya kunyeliswa ngenxa yabo indlela yenyaniso. Bathi benokubawa, banibonelele ngamazwi alalanisayo: abakugwetywa kungaphumliyo kwakudala, Umgwebo wabo awozeli (2 UPetros 2:1-3)
Zintanda, musa ukukholelwa wonke umoya, Kodwa zama imimoya ukuba zingoThixo: Kuba uninzi lwabaprofeti bobuxoki baphumile ehlabathini. Mazini ngale nto uMoya kaThixo: Wonke umoya omvumayo uYesu Kristu eze esenyameni, ungokaThixo: Nomoya wonke ongamvumiyo uYesu Kristu eze esenyameni, asingokaThixo: kwaye lo nguloo moya womchasi-Kristu, eniyivayo ukuba iyeza; nangoku uselukho ehlabathini (1 UYohane 4:1-3)
UYesu waprofeta waza walumkisa amakholwa ngoku kwiincwadi zawo, ngokuba babemazi umbandezeli wabo, umtyholi, kwaye babeqhelene nemisebenzi yakhe.
Ayesazi ukuba utshaba lwawo yayingengobantu abangangqalanga, kodwa utshaba lwabo lwalunye, onegunya phezu kwabantu, Ngoobani Ilizwe (ubumnyama), kwaye uyazilawula; umtyholi.
Abapostile nabafundi bakaYesu babengengabo abenyama kodwa babefana kanye noYesu ngokomoya ngokuzalwa ngokutsha kuKristu. Babesazi ukuba babengamajoni kaKristu kwimfazwe yokomoya yaye bephumeza amandla akhe emhlabeni yaye bengalwi nenyama negazi kodwa nabalawuli., amandla, abalawuli bobumnyama beli lizwe, nxamnye nenkohlakalo yomoya kwiindawo eziphakamileyo, leyo, phakathi kwabanye, yalawula kubomi beenkokeli zonqulo ezizimfama kwaye yatshutshisa iBandla likaKristu kwaye isasebenza kwaye isebenza kubomi babantu abaninzi., kuquka neenkokeli zeecawa ezininzi.
Ngaba icawe ibona okanye imfama?
Abalindi bakhe baziimfama: bonke abanalwazi, bonke bazizinja ezizizidenge, azikwazi ukukhonkotha; ukulala, ulele phantsi, ukuthanda ukulala. Ewe, zizinja ezibawayo, ezingahluthiyo, kwaye bangabalusi abangaqondiyo: bonke bajonge kweyabo indlela, elowo ngenxa yenzuzo yakhe, ukusuka kwindawo yakhe. Yizani nina, bathi, Ndiza kuthabatha iwayini, siya kuzihluthisa ngesiselo esinxilisayo; kuya kuba njenganamhlanje ngomso, kwaye kuninzi ngakumbi (uIsaya 56:10-12)
Ngenxa yokuba iBandla aliliphulaphulanga iLizwi kwaye lizityeshele izilumkiso zeLizwi noMoya oyiNgcwele kwaye alizange liphaphame ngokomoya., kodwa uyalahlekiswa, ngemimoya ekhohlisayo yobumnyama, utshintsho lwenzekile eBandleni kwaye uMzimba kaKristu wasuka kuMoya ukuya enyameni, apho imimoya yobumnyama inikwe inkululeko kwaye umtyholi umisele itrone yakhe kwiicawe ezininzi (Funda kwakhona: Itrone kaSathana kwaye Indlela ICawa yeHlabathi ilungiselelwe ngayo uMchasi-Kristu).
Amakholwa amaninzi ayisayoyiki iNkosi yaye ulwazi ngokuthanda kukaThixo noBukumkani bakhe nokulungileyo nokubi alukho.. Abayi kucalula imimoya, kodwa baye banekratshi baza bala ukuzithoba kuYesu Kristu; ilizwi, kwaye utshintshe kwaye ugcine imiyalelo Yakhe.
Abaninzi baye baba dikidiki ngokuphathelele izinto zoMoya noBukumkani bukaThixo yaye abakhange basikhathalele isono nentswela-bulungisa..
Abasigqali isono njengento embi; njengentando kaMtyholi nesiqhamo sokufa, kodwa basigqala isono njengento eqhelekileyo neyinxalenye yendalo yomntu.
Baye baqheleka isono, ngoko akufuneki batshintshe kwaye balahle ixhego, kodwa hlalani nisenza imisebenzi yenyama, kwaye ngenxa yoko ubomi babo abutshintshi kwaye bahlala bephila njengehlabathi. Abangqini ngoYesu Krestu kwaye ababizi abamelwane babo enguqukweni kodwa bayeke bathethe into abafuna ukuyiva kuba abafuni kubangela iingxaki. (Funda kwakhona: Ukuba amaKhristu ahlala ethe cwaka, abathinjiwe ebumnyameni bakhulule?)
Kwaye abaninzi bathi bazelwe ngokutsha kwaye bangokomoya kwaye bayabona kwaye bacinga ukuba baphila enyanisweni, ngelixa imisebenzi yabo ingqina ukuba baziimfama kwaye basahamba ebumnyameni kwaye benza iinkanuko zoyise wabo, njengabaFarisi, ababengaboni kodwa babeziimfama.
Kwaye ngenxa yokuba bathi bayabona, kwaye ke ngoko bathi baqhelene nentando kaThixo kwaye banolwazi nokuqonda kokomoya kwaye bayazi ukuba isono akulunganga kodwa sibi., ngoko ke qhubekani nisona ngabom, izono zabo ziya kuhlala.
‘Yibani yityuwa yehlabathi’
