Ku 2 AbaseKorinte 2:11, UPawulu wabhalela ibandla laseKorinte, babengawazi amacebo kaSathane. UJesu wayesazi isitha sakhe, Wayejwayelene nemvelo kaSathane namaqhinga kaSathane. UJesu wayazi ukuthi uphezu kwaziphi izindlela futhi walinga abantu ukuba bone futhi wabangela ukuhlubuka kuNkulunkulu ophilayo. Ngakho-ke uJesu waxwayisa abantu futhi wababizela ekuphendukeni. Futhi njengoJesu, Usakhemvamela, owazalwa ngokusha wagcwaliswa ngoMoya oNgcwele, futhi wayesazi isitha sakhe futhi wayejwayelene nemvelo kaSathane namaqhinga akhe. Futhi ngakho wonke umuntu, oseyindodana kaNkulunkulu (lokhu kusebenza kokubili abesilisa nabesifazane) futhi sewamukele uMoya oNgcwele, kufanele ajwayelane nemvelo yamaqhinga kaSathane. Kodwa ingabe lokhu kusenjalo? Asiwazi amacebo kaSathane?
AmaKristu amaningi aphuphuthekiswe unkulunkulu walelizwe
Isihloko esandulele besikhuluma ngonkulunkulu walelizwe nendlela uSathane aphuphuthekise ngayo izingqondo zabantu, kuhlanganise namaKristu, ukuze akwazi ukufeza umsebenzi wakhe emhlabeni (Funda futhi: ‘Ukuthi unkulunkulu walelizwe uziphuphuthekise kanjani izingqondo zabantu')
Udale isithombe esingamanga sikaJesu namaKrestu esiphikisana neZwi likaNkulunkulu ngakho-ke siphikisana neqiniso ngokuphelele. (Funda futhi: ‘Yeka indlela uJesu womgunyathi akhiqiza ngayo amaKristu-mbumbulu')
Ubeke umuntu ngaphezu kukaNkulunkulu wabenza isikhungo sebandla futhi wabenza bakholwe ukuthi ukubekezelela nokwamukela isono, okuwumsebenzi wenyama, ebandleni, kuyinto enhle futhi ekhombisa ukuthi uyabakhathalela abantu futhi uyabathanda abantu.
Manje, usathane ukhohlisile amaKristu amaningi ngamanga akhe wawabangela ukuba ahambe emangeni akhe ebumnyameni, becabanga ukuthi benza imisebenzi emihle futhi bakha uMbuso kaNkulunkulu, Ngenkathi ngingokoqobo, abawakhi uMbuso kaNkulunkulu kodwa umbuso kaSathane emhlabeni (Funda futhi: ‘Ukubhubhisa imisebenzi kaNkulunkulu esikhundleni sokubhubhisa imisebenzi kaDeveli‘)
Ingabe amaKristu asengamasosha kaKristu?
AmaKristu amaningi awasewona amasosha kaKristu omoya futhi awahambi egqoke izikhali ezingokomoya futhi awalwi ngeZwi futhi awawaphikisi amanga kaSathane ngamagama athi ‘Kulotshiwe…’, njengoba uJesu enza. Njengoba bengafundi futhi bengatadishi iBhayibheli futhi bengalazi iZwi mathupha futhi ngenxa yalokho bengakwazi okulotshiweyo..
Bazi okuningi ngabanye (odumile) AmaKristu nokuhamba kwawo noNkulunkulu nezimfundiso zawo kanye (okungaphezu kwemvelo) okuhlangenwe nakho, ngokufunda izincwadi zabo, ukubukela izinhlelo zabo kanye/noma ukulalela izintshumayelo zabo. Noma kunjalo, abalazi iZwi uqobo. Bazi uNkulunkulu uBaba kuphela, UJesu Kristu, loMoya oNgcwele ngenzwabethi.
UPawulu wayelazi iZwi futhi wayengawazi amacebo kaSathane
Kodwa uma ekhona obangele usizi, akangidabukisanga, kodwa ngokwengxenye: ukuze nginganithwesi ngokweqile. Kumanele onjalo lokhu kujeziswa, okwenziwa ngabaningi. ngakho-ke kufanele nimthethelele, futhi amduduze, hlezi onjalo aginywe usizi olukhulu. Ngalokho ngiyanincenga ukuba niluqinisekise uthando lwenu kuye. Ngokuba ngabhalela nalokhu, ukuze ngazi ubufakazi benu, noma nilalela ezintweni zonke. Enimthethelela utho, nami ngiyakuxolela: ngoba uba ngithethelele utho, engimxolele ngakho, ngenxa yenu ngikuthethelele ngomuntu (ubukhona) kaKristu; Hleze usathane asizuze: ngoba asibona abangenalwazi ngamacebo akhe (2 AbaseKorinte 2:5-11)
UPawulu wayenobudlelwane bomuntu siqu noJesu Kristu noMoya oNgcwele futhi wayelalela uNkulunkulu kukho konke. Wayengesabi ukutshela amasonto iqiniso futhi abhekane nawo futhi awaxwayise ngamasu kaSathane, ngoba uPawulu wayewazi amaqhinga kaSathane (imicabango) nendlela asebenze ngayo. UPawulu wayeyisosha likaKristu futhi wembula imisebenzi kaSathane futhi wayibhubhisa. UPawulu wayala amabandla ukuba enze into efanayo njengaye.
Ku 2 AbaseKorinte 2, UPawulu ubhekisela esenzakalweni sangaphambilini ebandleni, okulotshwe encwadini yokuqala.
Ku 1 AbaseKorinte 5, UPawulu wabhala ukuthi kwabikwa ukuthi kwakukhona ubufebe phakathi kwabo, okungukuthi umuntu kufanele abe nomkayise.
Kunalokho ibandla lalila laphenduka, ibandla lakhukhumala lavumela isono sobufebe ebandleni, lapho ibandla langcoliswa ngakho.
Njenganamuhla, amabandla amaningi angcoliswa ngokuvumela isono ebandleni.
Amabandla amaningi angcoliswe isono
Esikhundleni sokuzithoba kuJesu Kristu; iNhloko yeBandla nokulalela intando kaNkulunkulu, abefundisi nabadala abaningi bazibeke ezinyathelweni futhi bayaziqhenya futhi bakhukhumele ngolwazi lwabo lwenyama kanye nokuziphatha kwabo ngokunganaki ngesono.. Benza ngobuqotho, kuyilapho bephikelela esonweni futhi/noma bevuma izono zabanye futhi bavumele (ucansi) ukungcola ebandleni (Funda futhi: ‘Lithini iBhayibheli ngesono eBandleni?‘).
Baningi abaholi abawile namanje ngenxa yobufebe baphenduka kuphela ngoba bebanjiwe nesikhundla sabo esontweni sisengcupheni., kodwa hhayi ngoba bezisola ngempela ngento abayenze kuNkulunkulu futhi ngenxa yalokho abaphenduki ngokweqiniso ezonweni zabo. Ngoba izikhathi eziningi, babuyela esonweni esifanayo ngokuphindaphindiwe.
Futhi esikhundleni sokuthi abanye bayeke lokhu kuziphatha futhi babavimbele ekungcoliseni ibandla futhi bonakalise uMbuso, ngokubasusa ezikhundleni zabo nasenkonzweni, babagcina ehhovisi nasenkonzweni efanayo, noma uzibuyisele emuva kwesikhathi esifushane ehhovisi nasenkonzweni efanayo, ngoba ngokusho kwabo, ngokwenza lokho, bakhombisa uthando lwabo nozwelo kubo (umakhelwane wabo).
Lokhu kwenzeka, konke ngenxa yokuthi bangabantu benyama futhi benza izinqumo ngemizwa nemizwa yabo, esikhundleni seZwi noMoya (Funda futhi: ‘Wayesho ukuthini uPawulu ngokubeka izandla kungazelele muntu?‘)
Ababona ngokomoya kodwa abenyama ngakho-ke abanalwazi ngentando kaNkulunkulu futhi abanalwazi ngamasu kaSathane.. Bahlulela abakubonayo ngemizwa yabo futhi baholwa imizwa nemizwa yabo hhayi ngalokho okushiwo iZwi noMoya.. Ngenxa yalokho amabandla amaningi asephenduke inyama futhi angcoliswa izono zabantu.
Uma nje amaKristu eqhubeka enza imisebenzi yenyama futhi ephikelela esonweni, kubonisa ukuthi abakazalwa ngokusha futhi abakayitholi inhliziyo entsha yenyama ekhiqiza imisebenzi yokulunga, kodwa ukuthi baseyindalo endala futhi basenenhliziyo yetshe engavuselelwanga eveza izono nokungalungi (Oh. Mathewu 15:19 (Funda futhi: ‘Kungani uNkulunkulu waloba umthetho waKhe ezibhebheni zamatshe?‘))
UPawulu wayengokomoya futhi eshukunyiswa uthando
Kodwa uPawulu nabanye abaphostoli babengenjalo. Babengebona abenyama kodwa ngokomoya. Ngakho-ke babengawazi amacebo kaSathane, kodwa babazi kahle ukuthi isitha sabo sasiphezu kwaziphi izinto esasizama ukukwenza.
Babephapheme ngokomoya futhi beqaphile futhi bebona izingozi ezingokomoya zesitha sabo futhi bakhuluma ngesibindi emasontweni futhi baxwayisa amabandla., naphezu komphumela, ukwenqatshwa, nokushushiswa kwabantu.
Ngakho uPawulu wabhalela ibandla laseKorinte mayelana nobufebe obabusebandleni futhi ngoba wayazi ukuthi imvubelo encane yayiyobilisa inhlama yonke., UPawulu wayemahlulele lowo muntu, owenza ubufebe, ngesenzo sakhe wamnikela umuntu kuSathane (Funda futhi: ‘Kusho ukuthini ukuletha umuntu kuSathane?).
Nakuba lesi senzo sabonakala singenanhliziyo, UPawulu wanikeza lo myalo ngenxa yothando ngoJesu Kristu, umuntu, kanye nebandla.
Ngenxa yothando ngoJesu, ngoba uPawulu wayazi ukuthi uJesu uyasizonda isono futhi akasoze ayekethisa esonweni ngakho uPawulu wazithoba entandweni kaJesu futhi wenza intando yaKhe ebandleni..
Ngenxa yothando lomuntu, ngoba uPawuli wayekwazi, ukuthi isono siholela ekufeni, naphezu kothando nomusa kaNkulunkulu. Ngakho-ke wakwenza, ukuze umuntu aphenduke.
Nangenxa yothando lwebandla, ngoba uPawuli wayekwazi, leso sono singangcolisa ibandla futhi sibangele ukuhlubuka kuNkulunkulu.
Ibandla laliqonda uthando lukaPawulu ngebandla futhi lalalela amazwi kaPawulu nomyalo wakhe futhi lamsusa umuntu phakathi kwalo., lapho ibandla lafakazela ukuthi lalilalela ezintweni zonke.
Isijeziso sebandla saletha indoda ekuphendukeni, ngoba kucatshangwa ukuthi umuntu, owacela intethelelo ebandleni e 2 AbaseKorinte 2, ngumuntu ofanayo okukhulunywa ngaye kuye 1 AbaseKorinte 5.
USathane akakwazanga ukubasiza
UPawulu wayala ibandla ukuba lithethelele indoda leyo futhi liyiduduze futhi liqinisekise uthando lwalo ngayo ngokuyivumela ebandleni (inothi, imayelana nokuvumela indoda ibuyele esontweni hhayi ehhovisi (inkonzo).
UPawulu wayemahlulele lowo muntu, futhi ibandla lalalela amazwi kaPawulu futhi lajezisa umuntu, ukuze bahlale bebumbene. Lapho ibandla limxolele umuntu, UPawulu naye wamthethelela lowo muntu, ukuze umuntu athethelelwe, futhi uPawulu nebandla babezohlala bemunye, futhi uSathane wayengeke azuze phezu kwabo, ngoba babengawazi amacebo kaSathane.
UPawulu wayazi isitha sakhe futhi wazi ngeZwi, ayelwa laye, futhi ngalolo lwazi uPawulu wenza futhi akazange amnikeze udeveli indawo.
Ingabe ibandla alinalwazi ngamaqhinga kasathane?
Ngeshwa, emasontweni amaningi, akusenjalo futhi uSathane usengene ngendlela ekhohlisayo emasontweni amaningi futhi ngezimfundiso zamanga wawalinga ukuba one.. Amabandla amaningi amnikeze udeveli indawo ngokuhamba enyameni nokwamukela isono. Indawo kaSathane isenyameni. Ngakho-ke uma nje inyama isaphila, uyohlale ethola indlela yokufeza umsebenzi wakhe (Funda futhi: ‘Izimfundiso zamanga eziyinhlamba kuNkulunkulu‘ futhi ‘Izimfundiso zamademoni zibulala isonto‘).
Angathumba ibandla lonke, ngomuntu oyedwa nje, ongowenyama futhi uhlala engokwenyama. Udinga umuntu oyedwa kuphela ukuze afeze umsebenzi wakhe futhi acekele phansi ibandla futhi acime ukukhanya.
Ngakho-ke ngokuvamile, usebenzisa abantu, abangase babonakale bengokomoya kodwa bengokwenyama futhi benethonya ebandleni.
Usebenzisa abashumayeli, kwenye indawo, futhi ikakhulukazi izingane zabo ukwakha ibandla lenyama eliholwa yinyama; izinzwa, imizwa, imizwelo, ingqondo yenyama, kanye nentando yomuntu, esikhundleni seZwi, uMoya oNgcwele, nentando kaNkulunkulu.
USathane uyazi ukuthi kulula ngabantu ukwahlulela izono zabantu, abakude, kunokwahlulela izono zabantu, abaseduze nabo. Kulula ukuma eZwini futhi ulalele intando kaNkulunkulu futhi wahlulele isono somfokazi, kunokuma eZwini futhi ulalele intando kaNkulunkulu futhi ulahle isono sesihlobo.
Umuntu oseduze uhlobene nomuntu, kuba nzima kakhulu ukulandela uJesu nokuqhubeka nokuma eZwini nokwenza intando kaNkulunkulu nokulahla isono.
Ungena kanjani uSathane emindenini nasemabandleni?
Thatha, Ngokwesibonelo, umzali nengane. Umzali ongumKristu angalalela intando kaNkulunkulu futhi ame eZwini kwabanye, abamela kude futhi babhekane nabo ngento engahambisani nentando kaNkulunkulu futhi basilahle isono. Kodwa uma ingane yomzali ongumKristu yenza into efanayo ncamashi ephambene nentando kaNkulunkulu futhi yenza imisebenzi efana neyomuntu., ababelahlwa abazali abangamaKristu, umzali uyakubekezelela futhi uyakwamukela futhi ayekethise nemisebenzi yobumnyama, ngenxa yokwesaba, ngoba umzali wesaba ukuhlulelwa abanye futhi/noma wesaba ukulahlekelwa ingane.
Futhi ngakho uSathane usebambe amaKristu amaningi futhi ungena emindenini nasemabandleni, ngezihlobo, abangase babonakale belungile kodwa benqaba ukuzithoba kuJesu Kristu futhi balandele iZwi futhi benze intando kaNkulunkulu futhi balahle imisebenzi yenyama, kodwa benze intando yabo njalo bahambe ngendlela yabo, nangemizwa yamaKristu, okuthi ngokwamukela imisebenzi yenyama bayophika uJesu futhi bakhothame kuSathane futhi bazithobe kuye futhi baphoqelele intando yakhe (Funda futhi: ‘Umoya ka-Eli''futhi ‘Ingabe uyamvuma uJesu phambi komuntu noma uyamphika?‘)
USathane uyabazi abantu. Wazi amandla nobuthakathaka babo ngamazwi nangezenzo. Ngakho-ke, wazi kahle, ukuthi angabalinga kanjani abantu ukuba bone futhi aqinisekise ukuthi abantu baphila ngokungalaleli intando kaNkulunkulu. Futhi ngenxa yalokho uSathane unenzuzo phezu kwabantu futhi azuze ukunqoba phezu kwabo
Nokho, UNkulunkulu wembula emadodaneni Akhe, ngeZwi lakhe, isimo sikadeveli nemicabango nemisebenzi yakhe, okufanele bazi ngayo imvelo, imicabango, nemisebenzi kaSathane. Kodwa ngenxa yokuthi amaKristu amaningi awalifundi futhi alitadishe iBhayibheli ngokwawo, abazi lutho ngaye futhi abanalwazi ngamasu kaSathane, okwenza kube lula ngabo ukudukiswa ngamazwi abantu nangezimfundiso zamanga futhi balingeke ukuba bone.
IZwi likaNkulunkulu lahlulela imicabango nezizindlo zenhliziyo
Ngoba izwi likaNkulunkulu liyashesha, futhi enamandla, nobukhali kunanoma iyiphi inkemba eyehla, Ukubhoboza ngisho nasekuhlukaniseni umphefumulo nomoya, kanye namalunga nommonka, futhi ungumqondo wemicabango nezinhloso zenhliziyo. Futhi asikho isidalwa esingabonakali emehlweni akhe: Kepha zonke izinto zinqunu, zavulwa emehlweni alowo esifanele azenze (amaHebheru 4:12-13)
NgeZwi likaNkulunkulu, uzokwazi intando kaNkulunkulu futhi uzothola ulwazi lukamoya, hhayi kuphela ngoNkulunkulu noMbuso Wakhe nentando yaKhe, kodwa futhi mayelana nesitha sakho empini yomoya.
IZwi likaNkulunkulu lahlulela imicabango nezizindlo zenhliziyo, iZwi lembula konke. Akukho okuhlala kufihliwe.
Uma ugcina egameni futhi iZwi lihlala kuwe, bese kuthi ngeQiniso, uyakwehlukanisa okuhle nokubi, ukwazi ukwahlukanisa imicabango kanye nemisebenzi kaNkulunkulu nemicabango nemisebenzi kadeveli.
Ngoba izikhathi eziningi, okuthile kungase kubukeke sengathi kuvela kuNkulunkulu, futhi ithathwa njengesimangaliso, Ngenkathi ngingokoqobo, livela kuSathane, olamandla futhi owenza izibonakaliso lezimangaliso zamanga, kodwa akanazo izinhloso ezinhle ngawe, Kepha okubi kakhulu.
Ngakho-ke thatha iBhayibheli ufunde iZwi likaNkulunkulu futhi uthole ukumazi Yena kanye nentando Yakhe, ukuze ukwazi ukuhlukanisa okuhle nokubi futhi uqaphele amaqhinga kaSathane futhi umvimbele ekuzuzeni ukunqoba, Ngokuthi, ‘Kubhaliwe ukuthi…’.
‘Yiba usawoti womhlaba’
