KwabaseKolose 3:5-9, UPawulos wabhala, 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. Kwaye ubeke indoda entsha, ehlaziywe ngolwazi emva komfanekiso walowo wamdala: Apho kungekho mGrike namJuda, ukwaluka nokungaluki, Umqaba, UmSkitiya, ikhoboka okanye okhululekileyo: usuke uKristu waba kuko konke, nakuzo zonke. Yintoni amalungu akho ehlabathini? Niwangcungcuthekisa njani amalungu enu asemhlabeni?
Uxanduva lomntu omtsha (unyana kaThixo)
Ukuba uvuswe kunye noKrestu kwaye uhleli kuye, uya kufuna izinto zaphezulu, apho uKrestu uhleli khona, hayi izinto ezisemhlabeni. Inguqu yokomoya (ukuzalwa ngokutsha kuKristu) ziya kubonakala ebomini bakho emhlabeni ngokukhulula umntu omdala kwaye wambathe umntu omtsha.
UThixo akakunikanga igunya kuKristu kuphela namandla oMoya oyiNgcwele, kodwa uThixo ukwanike uxanduva lokuba (ngokomoya) Bhubhisani amalungu enu emhlabeni kwaye niyitshitshise imisebenzi yenyama, ukuze inyama ingabi salawula njengokumkani ebomini bakho, ikuwisele umthetho ngento omawuyenze, akwenze ukuba uhambe ngokwenyama ekungamthobelini uThixo neLizwi lakhe, kodwa ukuba uKristu uyalawula njengoKumkani ebomini bakho kwaye uhamba emva koMoya ngokuthobela uThixo kunye neLizwi lakhe (Funda kwakhona: Isono masingabi salawula njengokumkani!).
Olo xanduva lunikwe umntu omtsha, kwaye akukho sizathu esinye sinokucatshulwa, ukukhulula umntu omtsha kolu xanduva kunye nomsebenzi.
Akukho namnye, othi ungumKristu aze athi uzelwe ngokutsha unesikhundla esikhethekileyo yaye akaqukwanga.
Akukho mntu unelungelo lokuqhubeka ehamba ngokungazi kwaye ecinga ngokwenyama, obubutshaba kuThixo, kukufa ke, niphile njengabantwana bokungathobeli, niziintshaba zikaThixo nobulungisa bakhe (Owu. Kwabase-Efese 2:2; 4:18-19, 1 UPetros 1:14).
Indoda endala (unyana kaMtyholi) ebethelelwe emnqamlezweni noKristu
Ukuba uthi uzelwe ngokutsha kuKristu, uya kuphila njengomntu ozelwe ngokutsha, Ngubani loThixo, ekubeni indalo yakho itshintshile.
Ngokumanywa noKrestu Yesu, uMoya umniki-bomi undikhulule ekulawulweni sisono nakukufa. Ngoko ke anisaphili phantsi komthetho wesono nokufa, olawula enyameni, ngokuba inyama yenu yabethelelwa emnqamlezweni noKristu. Nikhululwe kuKristu, niphila phantsi kobabalo nomthetho woMoya wobomi (AmaRoma 6:14; 8:1).
Xa wawulixhego, ubuphila ehlabathini, kodwa bafile kuThixo, ngenxa yezono zenu nezono zenu (Owu. Kwabase-Efese 2:1-3, 1 UPetros 1:13-16).
Beningabehlabathi ke ngoko nahamba ngokwendlela (Indlela yokuphila) yeli lizwe, ngokomthetheli wegunya lesibhakabhaka, UMoya ngoku usebenza kubantwana bokungathobeli.
Indoda endala ayikwenzi ukuthanda kukaThixo, kodwa ukuthanda kukaMtyholi (umlawuli weli hlabathi), kwaye uphila ngokuthobela umtyholi ekungamthobelini uThixo ngokungakholwa.
Umntu omdala uhamba kwiinkanuko zenyama, ukwanelisa inkanuko yenyama neyenyama (okwenyama) ingqondo, yaye ungumntwana wengqumbo ngemvelo (Kwabase-Efese 2:1-3).
Umntu omtsha uvuswa ekufeni kuKristu
Siza kuthini emva koko? Siza kuqhubeka esonweni, Olo lubabalo lwaluphele? Makube lee oko. Saya kuthi, abafileyo kwisono, phila nangakumbi? Anazi na, Oko abaninzi kuthi babhaptizwe kuYesu Krestu babhaptizelwa ekufeni kwakhe? Ngoko ke sangcwatywa naye ngokubhaptizelwa ekufeni: ukuze njengokuba uKristu wavuswayo kwabafileyo ngalo uzuko loYise, Ngokunjalo nathi sifanele sihambe sinobomi obutsha.
Kuba ukuba similiselwe kuye ngemfano yokufa kwakhe, nathi siya kuba kwanjengemifuziselo yovuko lwakhe: Ukwazi oku, ukuba umntu wethu omdala wabethelelwa emnqamlezweni kunye naye, ukuze umzimba wesono uphuthiswe, ukuze singabi sasikhonza isono. kuba owafayo ugwetyelwe, wakhululwa kuso isono. Ukuba ke sifile kunye noKrestu, siyakholwa ukuba sodla ubomi kwandawonye naye: sisazi ukuba uKristu, evusiwe nje kwabafileyo, akabi safa; ukufa akusenagunya kuye. Kuba wafa ngaloo nto, Wafa kwakanye kwisono: udla ubomi ngokobudlayo, uphilela uThixo. Ngokunjalo nani zibaleleni ekuthini, ningabafileyo okunene kwisono, kodwa budla ubomi kuThixo ngoYesu Kristu, iNkosi yethu
Ngoko isono masingalawuli emzimbeni wenu onokufa, ukuze niwululamele ngokweenkanuko zawo. Kanjalo amalungu enu maningawanikeli kuso isono, ukuba abe ziintonga zentswela-bulungisa;: kodwa zinikeleni nina ngokwenu kuThixo, njengabaphilayo bephuma kwabafileyo, amalungu enu ke, ukuba abe ziintonga zobulungisa kuThixo. Kuba isono asiyi kuniphatha ngabukhosi: kuba aniphantsi komthetho, kodwa phantsi kobabalo.
Yintoni ke? sone na, ngokuba singekho phantsi komthetho, kodwa phantsi kobabalo? Makube lee oko. Anazi na, kuba lowo nizigqala kuzo, ukuba nithobele, Abakhonzi bakhe nina niye nimthobela kuye; Nokuba yesono kukufa, okanye ukuthobela ubulungisa? (AmaRoma 6:1-16)
Ngokholo kuYesu Krestu nokuzalwa ngokutsha kuye, umntu omdala wafa ekuKristu, umntu omtsha uvuswe ekufeni kuKristu, wenziwa waphilela uThixo.
Umoya womntu wenziwa waphila kwaye uMoya uya kulawula kubomi bomntu omtsha. Ngokuzithoba kuThixo nokuthobela iLizwi lakhe nangamandla oMoya oyiNgcwele, umntu omtsha uya kubhubhisa amalungu asemhlabeni kwaye abeke imisebenzi yenyama kwaye angcolise isono kumandla ayo., ngokunganikezeli kwintando, iinkanuko, nenkanuko yenyama ningenzi ngokwezicamango, abawachasayo amazwi kaThixo.
Ukuba uye waba ngumntu omtsha, aniyi kuba safuna izinto ezisemhlabeni, nihlwayele esenyameni, nivune ukonakala, Ke zona ezo zinto niya kuzifuna, ezingasemazulwini, zihlwayele ngoMoya, zithwala isiqhamo soMoya.
Awusengumkhonzi wesono nokufa, noko ke nakhululwa kuKristu, naba likhoboka lobulungisa.
Ngoko ke aniyi kuba sanikela amalungu enu kuso, ukuba abe ziintonga zentswela-bulungisa;. Aniyi kuba savumela amalungu enu asemhlabeni ukuba anilawulele into emaniyenze, kodwa kwisikhundla sakho esitsha kuKristu, uya kuthabatha igunya phezu kwamalungu akho kwaye ubulale amalungu akho asemhlabeni kwaye uzinikele kuThixo namalungu akho njengezixhobo zobulungisa kuThixo..
Athini amalungu akho, ehlabathini?
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 (KwabaseKolose 3:5-7)
Amalungu akho, ezisemhlabeni, luhenyuzo, ukungahlambuluki, I-Inordinate Uthando, Ingqiniso lobubi, kunye nokubawa, engowasezithixo.
Ukuba umKristu uqhubeka ehamba kuhenyuzo, ukungahlambuluki, I-Inordinate Uthando, Ingqiniso lobubi, kunye nokubawa, umntu usengumntu omdala hayi umntu omtsha, ekubeni umntu esathwele isiqhamo somntu omdala wenyama.
Kubalulekile ukuba umntu aguquke aze azalwe ngokutsha kuKristu, kwaye ukusuka kuMoya kuyawadlisa amalungu akhe aphezu komhlaba.
KuKristu, Ninikwe lonke igunya namandla okubulala amalungu enu emhlabeni kwaye niyilahle imisebenzi yenyama ngokuchasa uMtyholi., isono, nokufa, ukuze bangabi saba nabukhosi phezu kwenu.
Kodwa kuxhomekeke kuwe, ukuba uyafuna ukwenza okanye awufuni. Konke kuxhomekeke ekubeni uthando lwakho ngoYesu noYise lomelele ngaphezu kothando lwakho ngenyama yakho (Funda kwakhona: Ngaba uyamthanda uThixo ngaphezu kwazo zonke?).
Ukwenzakalisa amalungu akho asemhlabeni nokulahla imisebenzi yenyama yinto ekufuneka uyenzile ngokwakho. Akukho mntu wumbi unokukwenzela loo nto. Luxanduva lwakho, uya kuphenduliswa ngayo.
Kodwa ukuba awulithabathi igunya lakho kuKristu kwaye awuwabulali amalungu akho asemhlabeni, ke amalungu akho ekugqibeleni aya kukukhathaza.
Uwamosha njani amalungu akho, ehlabathini?
Ukuba uye wangunyana kaThixo (oku kusebenza kuzo zombini iinkunzi nemazi), awusayi kuphinda uzondle ngezinto zeli hlabathi eziyakuvusa kwaye zomeleze intando, neenkanuko zenyama yenu.
Uyayazi inyani nokuthanda kukaThixo kwaye uya kuqaphela ukuba unxulumana nabani na kunye nezinto ozibandakanya kunye nezinto ozenzayo.. Uya kukulumkela oko ukubukelayo, into oyimamelayo, into oyifundayo, njl.
Xa uyeka ukuzondla inyama yakho kwaye uthobe inyama, zandule ke iinkanuko nenkanuko yenyama zingavuswa, zibe namandla, ziya kufa.
Umosha amalungu akho, aphezu komhlaba ngokulawula amalungu enu niwachase. Awunikezeli kwintando yakho kunye neenkanuko kunye neminqweno yenyama yakho.
Umntu omtsha ngunyana kaThixo othobelayo
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. Kwaye ubeke indoda entsha, ehlaziywe ngolwazi emva komfanekiso walowo wamdala: Apho kungekho mGrike namJuda, ukwaluka nokungaluki, Umqaba, UmSkitiya, ikhoboka okanye okhululekileyo: usuke uKristu waba kuko konke, nakuzo zonke (KwabaseKolose 3:8-11).
Ngaphandle kokwenzakalisa amalungu, ehlabathini (uhenyuzo, ukungahlambuluki, I-Inordinate Uthando, Ingqiniso lobubi, kunye nokubawa), nawe uze uwulahle umsindo, ingqumbo, ububi, ukunyelisa, Unxibelelwano olungcolileyo ngaphandle komlomo wakho, kuba abangeni kubomi bomntu omtsha (Funda kwakhona: Ithini iBhayibhile ngexhego? kwaye Indlela yokulahla ixhego?).
Ixhego lixoki, kanye njengoyise umtyholi, ke umntu omtsha akaxoki, kodwa uthetha inyaniso kanye njengoYise. Ngoko ke, umntu omtsha akaxoki, nangona kwamanye amazwe ukuxoka kugqalwa njengento eqhelekileyo yaye kuyinxalenye yesithethe.
UMtyholi usebenzisa iinkcubeko ukwenza umsebenzi wakhe owonakalisayo kunye nokugcina abantu ebukhobokeni kwizinto zobungqibi zeli hlabathi kunye nesono nokufa kunye nokulawula abantu ukuze benze into efunwa nguMtyholi kwaye usathana angakha itrone yakhe. (Funda kwakhona: Itrone kaSathana)
Kodwa inyaniso kukuba, ukuba yonke inkcubeko iyabhanga kuKristu. Zombini indalo endala yomntu owileyo njengoko inkcubeko ithi shwaka kuKristu (Funda kwakhona: Yonke inkcubeko inyamalale kuKristu)
Akukho mahluko kuKristu
Kuba nina nonke ningoonyana bakaThixo ngako ukukholwa, nikuKristu Yesu;. Kuba nina nonke, nabhaptizelwayo kuKristu, namambatha uKristu. Akukho mYuda namGrike, akukho khoboka nakhululekileyo, akusekho ndoda nankazana: kuba nina nonke nimntu mnye, nikuKristu Yesu (kwabaseGalati 3:26-28)
Kuyintoni na obhinqileyo esinqeni sengqondo yakho, yiba phambukela, kwaye unethemba lokuphela kobabalo ekufuneka luziswe kuwe ekutyhilweni kukaYesu Krestu; Njengabantwana abathobelayo, ayizukuzonwabisa ngokwangaphambili: Ke, njengokuba enibizayo, ungcwele, Ke yibani ngcwele ngandlela zonke zencoko; Kuba kubhaliwe, Yiba ngcwele; Kuba ndingcwele (1 UPetros 1:13-16)
Ngenkqubo yokungcwaliswa, uya kuhlaziya ingqondo yakho ngeLizwi, khululani ixhego ninxibe entsha, ohlaziywe ngolwazi emva komfanekiso wakhe odale, apho kungekho mGrike namYuda, indoda okanye ibhinqa, ukwaluka nokungaluki, Umqaba, UmSkitiya, ikhoboka okanye okhululekileyo, usuke uKristu waba kubo bonke, waba kubo bonke.
