IBhayibheli liyiZwi likaNkulunkulu futhi iBhayibheli liyiQiniso likaNkulunkulu. Uma ukholwa kuJesu Kristu, bese ukholwa eZwini. Ngoba uJesu Kristu uyiZwi eliphilayo elenziwe inyama (UJohane 1:14). Uma ukholwa eZwini, bese ukholwa wonke amazwi alotshwe eBhayibhelini. Ngoba uma usho, ukuthi uyakholwa kuJesu, kodwa bayangabaza noma benqaba imibhalo ethile eBhayibhelini, khona-ke empeleni awukholelwa Kuye. Kuphakathi kokuthi ukholwa kuYe futhi ukholwe yiZwi lonke, noma awukholwa kuYe futhi uyangabaza noma wenqaba iZwi. Kodwa kungani kufanele sithembe iBhayibheli? Yibuphi ubufakazi esinabo bokuthi iBhayibheli liyiQiniso?
IBhayibheli lisho i Iqiniso
Wonke amazwi omlomo wami asekulungeni; akukho okuphambene nokuphambene kuzo (Izaga 8:8)
UJesu uthi, ukuthi wonke amazwi Akhe akhulunywa ngokulunga; akukho okuphambene nokuphambene kuzo. Wonke amazwi kaNkulunkulu, kukhulunywa ngokulunga, Akakawashintshi amazwi Akhe noma awaphendukezele amazwi Akhe. Indlela uNkulunkulu acabanga futhi azizwa ngayo ngezinto zeTestamente Elidala, ayikashintshi. Usacabanga futhi uzizwa kanjalo. Umehluko kuphela, ukuthi ngegazi likaJesu, siphila esivumelwaneni esisha.
Isivumelwano Esidala sithathelwe indawo Isivumelwano Esisha
Isivumelwano esidala, nayo yonke imithetho yayo, imithetho, imiyalo, nemikhosi, yavalwa ngegazi lezilwane futhi esikhundleni sayo kwafakwa iSivumelwano Esisha. Ngakho-ke iSivumelwano Esidala sesiphelelwe yisikhathi. Isivumelwano esisha safikaisethi entsha yemithetho, ezimele intando kaNkulunkulu futhi zibekwe uphawu ngegazi likaJesu Kristu.
Lesi Sivumelwano Esisha ngeke sisho, ukuthi uNkulunkulu uguqule intando Yakhe nomqondo Wakhe ngezindaba ezithile. Ngoba uma kunjalo, khona-ke iZwi laKhe belingeke lisaba iqiniso, futhi angeke athembeke futhi athembeke.
Uma ubheka inani lemiyalo, ukuthi uNkulunkulu wamnika uMose, nabantu baKhe, futhi uqhathanise leyo nemithetho uJesu ayinikeza phakathi nenkonzo Yakhe, bese sibona ukuthi uJesu wanikeza imiyalo eminingi kunoNkulunkulu. Futhi uJesu wathi, ukuthi uma umthanda ngempela, ubuyogcina imiyalo yaKhe (Funda futhi: ‘Imiyalo kaNkulunkulu nemiyalo kaJesu‘).
Kungenzeka kanjani lokho, ngoba kwakungekho muntu owayengagcina imilayo, uJehova uNkulunkulu awunika uMose, ngaphandle kukaJesu Kristu? Kungani uJesu adlulela phambili futhi wenza imiyalo yaba nzima futhi ngokwengeza eminye imiyalo?
Imfihlo yokugcina yonke imiyalo kaNkulunkulu
Imfihlo ithi, ukuthi ngokuhlala kukaMoya oNgcwele, uthole inhliziyo entsha kanye nemvelo entsha; Imvelo kaNkulunkulu (Isimilo sakhe). Manje uma wena vuselela ingqondo yakho ngeZwi likaNkulunkulu, ingqondo yakho (indlela yakho yokucabanga) uzohambisana noMoya oNgcwele, ngemvelo kaNkulunkulu (umlingiswa) kanye nentando Yakhe ngakho-ke uzozenza ngokuzenzakalelayo gcina yonke imiyalo yakhe.
Ukucabanga kwakhe kuba ukucabanga kwakho, nentando yakhe, iba yintando yakho.
Kuzothatha isikhathi, ukuvuselela ingqondo yakho, nokukhulela ebuntwaneni bukaNkulunkulu. Ukuthi kuzothatha isikhathi esingakanani kuncike kuwe, singakanani isikhathi osichitha eZwini nokuthi umthanda kangakanani uNkulunkulu.
Kodwa uma uvuselela ingqondo yakho ngeZwi, khona niyakufumana iqiniso, nokuhlakanipha, futhi uhambe kuyo. Uma ungawuvuseleli umqondo wakho ngeZwi, khona-ke niyoqhubeka niphila njengezwe ebugqilini besono futhi niyophila emangeni.
Ungathembela kuwo wonke amagama alotshwe eBhayibhelini. Kungenxa yokuthi kungani iBhayibheli lithembekile, okuthembekile futhi iqiniso ukuthi zonke iziprofetho eziseBhayibhelini zenzekile noma zisadinga ukwenzeka. Kodwa asikho nesisodwa isiprofetho, lokho uNkulunkulu akunikile okungakagcwaliseki.
Ngakho-ke yekani ukungabaza, kodwa kholwani amazwi kaNkulunkulu, nizuze ukholo kuye.
Uma uJesu ethi, ukuthi wonke amazwi Akhe alungile, kanye neqiniso, pho kungani kufanele ungabaze futhi wenqabe imibhalo ethile?
Kubhaliwe…
Uma umuntu ehlanekezela iqiniso lemibhalo, noma ikutshela ukuthi indlela okulotshwe ngayo yayingahlosiwe kanjalo, noma imibhalo isiphelelwe yisikhathi futhi ayikwazi ukusebenzisa imibhalo kulomhlaba wanamuhla. Noma, lapho othile ekutshela ukuthi uNkulunkulu akanandaba uma othile uqhubeka ephila esonweni, khona-ke ungakwazi ngokushesha ukwenqaba lezo zinsolo, Ngokuthi:
Kubhaliwe, ukuthi wonke amazwi eBhayibheli akhulunywe ngokulunga, futhi akukho okuphambene nokuphambene kuzo. IZwi likaNkulunkulu liyiqiniso, futhi iyohlala iyiqiniso.
UNkulunkulu uyafana, izolo, namuhla, futhi kuze kube phakade. Indlela uNkulunkulu ayecabanga ngayo ngezindaba ezithile ezinsukwini zakudala ayikashintshi. UNkulunkulu usacabanga kanjalo! Isimo Sakhe asikashintshi futhi nentando Yakhe ayikashintshi. Kungakho singamethemba ngokuphelele uNkulunkulu.
‘Yiba usawoti womhlaba’
