UThixo akangothixo wexesha elitsha, odalwe ezingqondweni zabantu kwaye uthetha amazwi akhayo akholisa abantu. UThixo, owenza izinto ezifunwa ngabantu. UThixo akadalwanga ngumntu nangenxa yomntu. Kodwa umntu udalwe nguThixo yaye udalwe nguThixo. UThixo nguMdali wezulu nomhlaba nako konke okungaphakathi. ILizwi lakhe lizinze ezulwini ngonaphakade. UThixo ungcwele kwaye ulilungisa. Uthetha inyaniso kwaye wenza ngokobulungisa Bakhe neLizwi Lakhe. Kuyo yonke iBhayibhile uThixo wathetha ngabaprofeti Bakhe, UNyana kunye noonyana bakhe (oku kusebenza kuzo zombini iinkunzi nemazi) malunga nokuphela kwemihla yokugqibela nemigwebo kaThixo eya kuza phezu komhlaba, xa umlinganiselo wesono uzele.
Ilungisa likuthiyile okungendawo;
Uthi ke kuNyana, Itrone yakho, Owu Thixo, Ngonaphakade kanaphakade: Yintonga yobulungisa intonga yobukumkani bakho. Ubuthanda ubulungisa, ubuthiyile ubugwenxa; ngoko uThixo, uThixo wakho, Ukuthambise Ngeoli yomhlali ngaphezu kwabalingane bakho. Kwaye, Wena, Nkosi, Ekuqalekeni waliseka isiseko sehlabathi; Izulu liyimisebenzi yezandla zakho: ziya kutshabalala; ke wena uhlala uhleli; Aye onke njengengubo eya konakala; Kwaye njengesambatho uya kuzisonga, kwaye baya kutshintshwa: kodwa wena ukwanguye, neminyaka yakho ayiyi kuphela (Hebhere 1:8-12, (INdumiso 45:6-7))
Ukoyika uYehova kukuthiya ububi: ikratshi, kunye nekratshi, kunye nendlela embi, nomlomo otyhafileyo, Ngaba ndiyayicaphukela (IMizekeliso 8:13)
Hayi, uyolo lomntu ondivayo!, ndibukele imihla ngemihla emasangweni am, emi emigubasini yeminyango yam. kuba ondifumanayo mna, ufumene ubomi;, kwaye uya kubabalwa nguYehova. Owonayo kum wona owakhe umphefumlo: bonke abandithiyayo bathanda ukufa (IMizekeliso 8:34-36)
Indoda enobugqwetha lisikizi kumalungisa: Ondlela ithe tye ulisikizi kongendawo (IMizekeliso 29:27)
UThixo uthiyile isono nokugwenxa kwabantu. Kungenxa yokuba yimvukelo nokungathobeli uThixo neLizwi Lakhe norhulumente.
Wonke umntu, ohamba ngobulungisa usithiyile isono, njengawo wonke umntu, ohamba esonweni ukuthiyile ubulungisa (Funda kwakhona: Yintoni isono?).
Siyayibona le nto, phakathi kwabanye, kubomi bukaNowa noLote.
UNowa wayengumshumayeli wobulungisa yaye wahamba noThixo phakathi kwabantu abangahloneli Thixo (abantu abangendawo).
ULote ehleli emasangweni aseSodom, ehleli phakathi kwabantu abangahloneli Thixo, ewuqumbisa imihla ngemihla emphefumlweni wakhe olilungisa ngenxa yehambo embi yabantu abangahloneli Thixo., ababephila kwimvukelo nokungamthobeli uThixo neLizwi lakhe (Owu. 2 UPetros 2:5-8).
Bobabini uNowa noLote babephila ngexesha elithile, apho ububi bomntu ehlabathini (nakwimizi yaseSodom neGomora) Lalilikhulu kangangokuba umlinganiselo wesono wazala, kwaye ngenxa yoko izigwebo zikaThixo zeza phezu komhlaba (neSodom neGomora).
Umgwebo kaThixo phezu komhlaba (umkhukula)
Wabona ke uThixo ukuba ububi bomntu bukhulu emhlabeni, Kwaye ukuba yonke ingcinga yeengcinga zentliziyo yentliziyo yakhe yayihlala imbi. Wazohlwaya ke uYehova, ukuba wenza umntu emhlabeni, kwaba buhlungu kuye entliziyweni. Utsho * uNdikhoyo, Ndiza kumtshabalalisa umntu endimdalayo ebusweni bomhlaba; bobabini umntu, kunye nerhamncwa, nento ekhulayo, kunye neentaka zomoya; ngokuba ndiyazohlwaya ngenxa yokuba ndizenzile. Kodwa uNowa wababalwa ngamehlo eNkosi. Ezi zizukulwana zikaNowa: UNowa wayeyindoda nje, egqibeleleyo kwizizukulwana zakhe, Kwaye uNowa wahamba noThixo. UNowa wazala oonyana abathathu, Shem, iham, noYafete. Umhlaba wonakele phambi koThixo, Umhlaba wagcwaliswa lugonyamelo. Kwaye uThixo wajonga emhlabeni, kwaye, khangela, Ikhohlakele; Kuba yonke inyama ibiyonakalisile indlela yayo emhlabeni. Kwaye uThixo wathi kuNowa, Isiphelo senyama yonke sifikile phambi kwam; Ngomhlaba kuzaliswa lugonyamelo lwazo; kwaye, khangela, Ndiza kubatshabalalisa ngomhlaba (IGenesis 6:5:13)
Ngeentsuku zikaNowa, Ihlabathi lalonakele ebusweni bukaThixo, lizele lugonyamelo, konke kungenxa yehambo yesono yomntu emhlabeni. Isono saba sikhulu kangangokuba umlinganiselo wesono wazala, owathi ngayo umgwebo kaThixo phezu komhlaba, laza ihlabathi labangahloneli Thixo latshatyalaliswa ngamanzi.
Uluntu lwaluphantse lwatshabalala ngokupheleleyo ngunogumbe, Ukuba bekungengoNowa nohambo lwakhe lobulungisa.
UNowa wayengumshumayeli wobulungisa. UNowa waye eyindoda elilungisa, egqibeleleyo kwisizukulwana sakhe, wahamba noThixo, wababalwa nguThixo.
UThixo wabelana noNowa ngecebo lakhe kwaye wayalela uNowa ukuba akhe umkhombe. UNowa wakholwa kuThixo waza wathobela amazwi akhe waza wakha umkhombe, awathi ngawo uNowa nendlu yakhe bahlangulwa kuNogumbe owehla phezu komhlaba waza watshabalalisa bonke ubungendawo bomntu emhlabeni (Funda kwakhona: Ziziphi iimpawu ezisixhenxe zemihla kaNowa?).
Umgwebo kaThixo kwiSodom neGomora (imvula yesalfure nomlilo)
Kwaye ULote wawaphakamisa amehlo akhe, wawukhangela wonke ummandla waseYordan, ngokuba ubunamanzi amaninzi kuzo zonke iindawo, ngaphambi kokuba uYehova ayonakalise iSodom neGomora, njengomyezo weNkosi, njengelizwe laseYiputa, njengoko udlayo kwesa eTsohare. ULote wawunyula wonke ummandla waseYordan; uLote wehla waya empumalanga: bazahlula omnye komnye. UAbram wahlala ezweni lakwaKanan, uLote wahlala emizini yaloo mmandla, wayimisa intente yakhe ngaseSodom. Ke kaloku amadoda aseSodom ayengabenzi bobubi, engaboni abakhulu kuYehova (IGenesis 13:10-13)
Utsho * uNdikhoyo, Ngokuba sikhulu isikhalo saseSodom neGomora, ngenxa yokuba isono sabo sinzima kunene; Ndiza kuhla ngoku, ukhangele ukuba baphelelisile na ngokwesikhalo sayo, leyo ifikileyo kum; kwaye ukuba akunjalo, Ndiya kwazi. Ajika amadoda apho apho, waya eSodom: ke yena uAbraham wayesemi phambi koYehova. Wasondela uAbraham, watsho, Uya kulitshabalalisa ilungisa kunye nongendawo?? (IGenesis 18:20-23)
Kwavuka kusasa, zaza izithunywa zamngxamisa uLote, esithi, Vuka, thabatha umfazi wakho, neentombi zakho zombini, ezilapha; hleze ubhebhethwe ngobugwenxa balo mzi. Kwaye ngeli xesha walibala, amadoda ambamba ngesandla, naphezu kwesandla somfazi wakhe, kunye nesandla seentombi zakhe zombini; iNkosi ikuba nemfesane kuye: bamkhuphela phandle, wammisa ngaphandle komzi (IGenesis 19:15-16)
Ilanga laliphumile phezu komhlaba, xa uLote engena eTsohare. Wanisa ke uYehova phezu kweSodom neGomora isulfure nomlilo ophuma kuYehova uphuma emazulwini; Wayibhukuqa ke loo mizi, nalo lonke ithafa, nabo bonke abemi bezixeko, nezihluma emhlabeni. Kodwa umkakhe wajonga ngasemva esemva kwakhe, waba yintsika yetyuwa. UAbraham wavuka kusasa, waya kuloo ndawo wayemi kuyo phambi koYehova: Wajonga ngaseSodom naseGomora, nakwilizwe lonke laloo mmandla, kwaye wabona, kwaye, khangela, wenyuka umsi welo zwe, njengomsi weziko lemfutho. Kwaye kwenzeka, ekuyitshabalaliseni kukaThixo imizi yaloo mmandla, ukuba uThixo wamkhumbula uAbraham, wamkhupha uLote phakathi kobhukuqo olo, xa wayibhukuqayo imizi leyo abehleli kuyo uLote (IGenesis 19:23-29)
Ngemihla kaLote, ISodom neGomora nezixeko eziyingqongileyo zazizaliswe bubungendawo, ngenxa yehambo embi yomntu.
Indoda yaseSodom naseGomora yayikhohlakele, ingaboni emehlweni *kaNdikhoyo. Ngenxa yendlela abaphila ngayo, Isono sabo saba sibi kunene, isikhalo saseSodom neGomora saba sikhulu, sada saya kufikelela emazulwini sada seza kuYehova., wehla ngawo, ukuba abone ukuba benze ngokwesikhalo eso.
Ekufikeni nangexesha lokuhlala eSodom, kwacaca ukuba imisebenzi yabemi yayingqinelana nesikhalo saseSodom neGomora.
Babuyintoni na ubugwenxa baseSodom?
Khangela, Bubugwenxa beSodom umsakwenu obo, ikratshi, Ukuhlutha sisonka, kwaye ubuninzi bobuvila bekukho kuye neentombi zakhe, akasomeleza isandla sosizana nolihlwempu. Kwaye babenekratshi, wenza amasikizi phambi kwam: ngoko ke ndazisusa njengoko ndibona kulungile (UHezekile 16:49-50)
Kanye njengeSodom neGomora, kwanemizi ngeenxa zonke kubo, bazinikele kuhenyuzo, nokulandela inyama engaqhelekanga, zimiselwe umzekelo, beva impindezelo yomlilo ongunaphakade (Yude 1:7)
Abemi balapho babenekratshi, kunye nokuzingca kwaye baphila ngokugqithisileyo kunye nobuninzi bobuvila, ngoxa babengabakhathalele abasweleyo nabangamahlwempu kwaye bengazimeleli izandla zabo.
Babenekratshi yaye beziphilela, esenza ngokweenkanuko nenkanuko yenyama, apho babephila ngokunyoluka, ukungahlambuluki, uhenyuzo, wenza izinto ezingamasikizi kuThixo (Owu. ILevitikus 18:22; 20:13, iDuteronomi 7:25-26; 12:29-32; 13:12-18; 18:9-14; 22:5; 23:17-18; 24:1-4; 25:16; 27:15, 1 Ookumkani 11:5-8, IMizekeliso 6:16-19; 11:1, 20;12:22;15:8-9, 26; 16:5; 17:15; 20:10,23, ISityhilelo 21:27 (Funda kwakhona: Umdiliya waseSodom kwaye Ithini iBhayibhile ngobufanasini?),
Ngenxa yokuhamba kwabo ngesono (ukuhamba okubi), umlinganiselo wesono wawuzele, owathi ngayo umgwebo kaThixo phezu kweSodom neGomora, nemizi ngeenxa zonke, yatshatyalaliswa yimvula yesulfure nomlilo..
Isilinganiselo sobugwenxa bama-Amori
UThixo wenza ngokwemithetho yokomoya yendalo iphela. Yonke into ayimiseleyo uThixo ilungile kwaye yonke into ayenzayo ilungile. Nangona oku kungasoloko kubonwa ngolo hlobo ngabantu, abenyama kwaye bengabesizukulwana somntu owileyo
UThixo wenza ngokweLizwi lakhe kwaye wenza yonke into ngokusemthethweni.
Umzekelo, kwiGenesis 15:12-16, sifunda ukuba uThixo waprofeta kuAbraham ngesiphelo sakhe nembewu yakhe.
Wathi uThixo, nokuba baya kuba ngabaphambukeli ezweni elingelolabo, babakhonze, kwaye babebacinezela 400 iminyaka. Ke uYehova wayeza kulugweba olo hlanga, ababeya kumkhonza, kwaye emva koko, babephuma benempahla eninzi.
Kodwa uAbraham waya kooyise enoxolo, angcwatywe ebudaleni obukhulu. Kwesesine isizukulwana, babeza kuza apha kwakhona. Kutheni kwisizukulwana sesine? ngokuba ubugwenxa bama-Amori babungekazaliseki.
UThixo wayenokwenza ngokusemthethweni anike abantu bakhe ilizwe ledinga njengelifa, wazala ubugwenxa bama-Amori, kungekamsinya.
Imigwebo kaThixo phezu komhlaba, ngokuba umlinganiselo wesono uzele
Mikhulu, iyamangalisa imisebenzi yakho, INkosi uThixo uSomandla; zinobulungisa, ziyinyaniso iindlela zakho, Wena Kumkani weengcwele. ngubani na ongayi kukoyika?, INkosi, ulizukise igama lakho? Ngokuba inguwe wedwa ongcwele: ngokuba zonke iintlanga ziya kuza ziqubude phambi kwakho; ngokuba ibonakalisiwe imigwebo yakho (ISityhilelo 15:3-4)
Ndaze ndeva omnye ephuma esibingelelweni esithi, Nangona kunjalo, INkosi uThixo uSomandla, zinyanisekile, zinobulungisa izigwebo zakho (ISityhilelo 16:7)
Ndaza emva koko ndeva izwi elikhulu lesihlwele esikhulu emazulwini, esithi, Alleluya; Usindiso, nozuko, nembeko, kunye namandla, kwiNkosi uThixo wethu: Ngokuba iyinyaniso, inobulungisa imigwebo yakhe: ngokuba uyaligweba ihenyukazi elikhulu, eyawonakalisa umhlaba ngobuhenyu bayo, uliphindezelele igazi labakhonzi bakhe esandleni sayo (ISityhilelo 19:1-2)
Siphila kwixesha, apho ihlabathi lakreqayo kuYehova, baphila abantu njengemihla kaNowa, bahamba njengendoda yaseSodom neGomora.. Abantu banemvukelo, ngekratshi, nokuzingca. Bagxile kwinzuzo yokuzingca kunye nobutyebi kwaye abakhangeleli abahlwempuzekileyo nabasweleyo.
Abantu abafuni ukuwaphulaphula amazwi kaThixo, ezithethwa ngoonyana bakhe (oku kusebenza kuzo zombini iinkunzi nemazi) uze ubabizele enguqukweni aboni. Kodwa baye baziphakamisa njengothixo bade bazibeke ngaphezu koThixo neLizwi laKhe neNyaniso yaKhe. Bakholiswa bubunqambi babo nayihambo yabo yesono.
Baphulaphula amazwi omntu, ongowehlabathi, umphathi walo eli hlabathi (umtyholi).
Banqula izithixo, ubugqwirha, ubugqwirha, ukuvumisa (ukuxela ithamsanqa), Olunye ukuphilisa, niyinqule imisebenzi eyenziwe ngumntu. Bahamba eburheletyweni nasebubini, bengenazintloni, bevelisa iziqhamo zenyama. (Funda kwakhona: Umhlaba uyandila kwaye ulinde ukubonakaliswa koonyana bakaThixo).
Baphila eburheletyweni (uburheletya) wenze ezo zinto, athe uThixo wawalela (ngenxa yokuthanda uluntu). Bayayonwabela into enikelwa lihlabathi kwaye amaKristu amaninzi athatha inxaxheba kunye nabo.
Endaweni yokuba bahlale bephaphele ubulungisa kwaye bahlale belindile kwaye behlaziye iingqondo zabo ngeLizwi likaThixo kwaye bathathe indawo yabo kuKristu kwaye bahambe emva koMoya ngokuthobela iLizwi kwaye bangenelele bangena kwidabi lomoya kunye namandla obumnyama kwaye bathandaza., ukushumayela ivangeli kaKristu nokubizela aboni enguqukweni kwaye bebenza abafundi bakaKristu, amaKrestu amaninzi ozela alala amamela ihlabathi kwaye alungelelaniswa nehlabathi kwaye akhe kunye nehlabathi kwaye ahlengahlengisa amazwi nemimiselo kaThixo kwaye aqubuda kumtyholi kwaye avumela imimoya yobumnyama ukuba ingene ebomini babo., abahamba ngayo, njengehlabathi, emva kwenyama ebumnyameni kubukhoboka besono nokufa
Ngenxa yokuba abazange bazithathele ingqalelo izilumkiso zeLizwi kwaye abazange babeke okungasentla (imigwebo kaThixo) njengomzekelo kwabo, abangahloneli Thixo, ubumnyama buye banda, nehlabathi lingcolisiwe, ngenxa yokonakala kwehambo yabemi bakhona(Funda kwakhona: Ubumnyama bucimile ukukhanya).
Ububi bomntu kunye nokonakala emhlabeni kukhulu kakhulu, ukuba isikhalo sehlabathi ngenxa yesono sifikile emazulwini. Umlinganiselo wesono uzele, aya kuthi ngayo imigwebo kaThixo ibe phezu komhlaba, bathi abangahloneli Thixo basele kwindebe yengqumbo yeNkosi., abazikhethele ngokwabo.
‘Yibani yityuwa yehlabathi’
