Eminyakeni edlule, kube nezingxoxo eziningi kanye nezinkulumompikiswano mayelana nendalo kanye nemfundiso yokuziphendukela kwemvelo, ngaphakathi nangaphandle kwebandla. Ngenxa yesitatimende sesayensi somhlaba esithathwe emqondweni wenyama yomuntu, Ngubani ongowomhlaba, kancane kancane ibandla laqala ukungabaza iqiniso leZwi likaNkulunkulu elithi, UNkulunkulu unguMdali wezulu nomhlaba nakho konke okungaphakathi. Bayazibuza, uNkulunkulu wadala izulu nomhlaba ngezinsuku eziyisithupha? Noma…
Amakholwa enyama awafuni ukubukeka eyiziwula noma eyiziphukuphuku
Ngeshwa, ababaningi abakholwayo ababebethele inyama yabo. Abazange badela ukuphila kwabo kuJesu Kristu futhi usahamba ngokwenyama. Ngenxa yalokho, banendaba ukuthi abanye bacabangani ngabo. Abafuni ukubhekwa njengeziwula noma iziwula, kodwa bafuna ukuphila njengezwe futhi bathandwe futhi bamukelwe yizwe. Ngakho-ke abaningi baye balungisa futhi washintsha iZwi likaNkulunkulu ekutholeni kwabo, Imibono, namafilosofi, eziphuma emqondweni wenyama futhi zithonywa izimfundiso zesayensi zomuntu. Lokhu kuye kwenza abaningi baphambuka eZwini likaNkulunkulu.
Kodwa labo, abangakholwa futhi abangahlali ngokweqiniso eZwini likaNkulunkulu, kodwa ukholelwa ekuziphendukeleni kwemvelo, okuyimfundiso yomuntu, Ungabi nguNkulunkulu, ngoba abamlaleli futhi abahambi Indlela yakhe, kodwa lalela amazwi abantu benyama futhi bangene ezindleleni abazikhethele bona.
Wonke umuntu uyakholwa
Bangase bathi, ukuthi bangamaKristu nokuthi bakholelwa kuNkulunkulu nokuthi ukholo lwabo luyingxenye enkulu yokuphila kwabo futhi lubanika amandla. Kodwa ukholo lwabo lwakhiwe phezu kwasiphi isisekelo?
Udeveli namademoni nabo bakholelwa kuNkulunkulu. Bakholelwa ukuthi uNkulunkulu ukhona, mhlawumbe ngaphezu kwabantu, kodwa abasindisiwe. Indawo yabo yaphakade iyichibi lomlilo laphakade.
Kusho isiwula enhliziyweni yaso, Akekho uNkulunkulu. Bakhohlakele, benze izinengiso, Akekho owenza okuhle (Isu leminiso sikhathi 14:1)
Abantu abangakholelwa ebukhoneni bukaNkulunkulu nabo bayakholelwa. Bakholelwa ukuthi uNkulunkulu akekho. Wonke umuntu kulo mhlaba ukholelwa kokuthile. Abanye bakholelwa ukuthi uNkulunkulu ukhona, abanye bakholelwa ukuthi uNkulunkulu akekho futhi abanye bakholelwa konkulunkulu abaningi noma ukuthi umuntu noma izilwane zingonkulunkulu.
Ukukholwa kwenyama
Kuyo yonke iminyaka, amaKristu amaningi asuke kancane kancane eZwini likaNkulunkulu futhi ahlakulela olwawo ukholo, ethonywa yi- amafilosofi omuntu futhi izimfundiso zamadimoni futhi ngokuyinhloko isekelwe phezu kwezinzwa, imizwa, nemizwelo.
Ngeshwa, awekho amakholwa amaningi, abafunda futhi batadishe iBhayibheli ngokwabo ngoMoya oNgcwele futhi bamukele futhi babekezelele iqiniso elimsulwa leZwi likaNkulunkulu. Ngoba iZwi elimsulwa livame ukuba lukhuni futhi lisho ukuzithoba eqinisweni kanye noshintsho lwempilo(uhlobo) futhi ababaningi abazimisele ukuzithoba kuNkulunkulu futhi baguqule izimpilo zabo.
Umoya wokuzibusa uyabusa ezimpilweni eziningi. Ngenxa yalokho, akuseyena uJesu, OyiNkosi yabo futhi uhlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi bempilo yabo. Kodwa banayo baziphakamisa njengonkulunkulu bazenza amakhosi, abahlezi esihlalweni sempilo yabo.
Abasalibheki iBhayibheli njengeQiniso. Kodwa baye bashintsha futhi balungisa amazwi eBhayibheli ukuze avumelane namafilosofi nezinto ezitholwe umuntu, okuvela kumqondo wezwe wenyama.
AmaKristu, abakholelwa ekuziphendukeleni kwemvelo
Baningi abashumayeli nabefundisi, abashumayela ngeBhayibheli ngamaSonto, kuyilapho bekholelwa ekuziphendukeleni kwemvelo. Ngoba bakholelwa ekuziphendukeleni kwemvelo, babukela phansi futhi phika uNkulunkulu njengoMdali wezulu nomhlaba? Amakholwa amaningi aseyizihlubuki ekukholweni naseZwini, ngoba kabazange avuselele ingqondo yabo ngeZwi likaNkulunkulu kodwa esikhundleni salokho, wagcwalisa ingqondo yabo ngolwazi, ukuhlakanipha, kanye neqiniso lomhlaba, phakathi kwa- (-ngesu lokwazi) Izinhlelo zethelevishini, izincwadi, izindaba, omagazini, inkundla yezokuxhumana njll., osekubangele ukuthi balingabaze iZwi likaNkulunkulu.
KunamaKristu amaningi, abazalwa futhi bakhulela emndenini wamaKrestu futhi bengamaKrestu ngokwesiko. Baya esontweni futhi bathandaze ngaphambi kokudla nangaphambi kokuba balale futhi ngezinye izikhathi bafunda iBhayibheli. Bazibiza ngamaKristu futhi babukeka njengamaKristu ngaphandle, ngenxa yokuziphatha kwabo kobuntu. Kodwa ngokweZwi, bacabanga futhi baphile njengezitha zesiphambano futhi bangabaphiki bakaNkulunkulu. Bavuma uNkulunkulu ngomlomo wabo, kodwa izinhliziyo zabo azikho kuYe, kodwa emhlabeni (Mat 15:8)
UMoya oNgcwele ufakaza ngoNkulunkulu, uMdali wezulu nomhlaba
Uma umuntu ethi uzelwe kabusha, khona-ke umoya womuntu uvusiwe kwabafileyo ngamandla kaMoya oNgcwele. Umoya KaNkulunkulu, Ohlala kumuntu, unguMoya kaNkulunkulu ofanayo, Owahamba phezu kobuso bamanzi, kuyilapho umhlaba wawungenalutho futhi ungenalutho nalapho ubumnyama buphezu kotwa.
UMoya ofanayo unguMoya weQiniso, Ongufakazi kaNkulunkulu uSomandla; uMdali wezulu nomhlaba nakho konke okungaphakathi noJesu Kristu; iZwi (Jn 14:17, Jn 15:26, Jn 16:13, Rom 8:9, 1 Ukukhanywa 2:12, 1 Ukukhanywa 3:16, 2 Ukukhanywa 1:22, 1 Okunguohano 4:13, 1 Okunguohano 5:6-8)
Ngakho-ke, uma othile ephika uMdali futhi alungise iZwi ekuhlakanipheni nolwazi lwalelizwe, khona-ke lowo muntu akanawo uMoya oNgcwele. Ngoba uNkulunkulu akanakuziphika.
UMoya oNgcwele ungufakazi wendalo futhi ufakaza ngeqiniso, ukuthi uNkulunkulu unguMdali wezulu nomhlaba, nokuthi Wadala izulu nomhlaba nakho konke okungaphakathi ngezinsuku eziyisithupha. Lowo nguNkulunkulu uSomandla, Esimkhonzayo! Akukho okungenzeki Kuye.
O Nkosi, mikhulu kangakanani imisebenzi yakho! nemicabango yakho ijulile kakhulu. Isiwula kasazi; nesiwula asikuqondi lokhu (Isu leminiso sikhathi 92:5-6)
Kodwa njengoba sekuxoxiwe kakade kokuthunyelwe kwebhulogi kwangaphambilini: ‘Ingabe iBhayibheli nesayensi kungahambisana?', umuntu ongenamoya akakwazi ukuqonda iqiniso likaNkulunkulu futhi abone uMbuso kaNkulunkulu. Futhi yingakho umuntu ongenamoya engakwazi ukuqonda ukuthi into ingadalwa kanjani ngaphandle kweze.
UJesu wathi, ukuthi ngaphandle uma umuntu eba azalwe kabusha, akaboni noma angene embusweni kaNkulunkulu (Jn 3:3-5). Futhi ngenxa yokuthi amakholwa amaningi awazalwa kabusha ngokweqiniso, basengabenyama futhi bayabuswa umqondo. Banomqondo wenyama ngakho-ke baphila ngokuvumelana nomqondo wabo wenyama, owakhiwa ulwazi nokuhlakanipha kwalomhlaba, qonda.
Ngokukholwa, niyakwazi ukuqonda indalo
Umsebenzi wokuqala wokholo ochazwe ngesiHeberu 11 kuyindalo. IZwi liyafakaza, ukuthi uNkulunkulu unguMdali wezulu nomhlaba nawo wonke amabutho awo.
Ngokukholwa siyaqonda ukuthi umhlaba wakhiwe ngezwi likaNkulunkulu, ukuze okubonwayo akwenziwa kokubonwayo (Heb 11:3)
Kuphela uma umuntu esezelwe kabusha, umuntu uyakwazi ukukholwa ukuthi uNkulunkulu udale ngeZwi Lakhe namandla Akhe izulu nomhlaba nakho konke okungaphakathi.
Uma usho, ukuthi uyakholelwa kuNkulunkulu futhi uthi uzelwe kabusha, bese ukholwa yiZwi likaNkulunkulu futhi ukholwe ukuthi uNkulunkulu udale izulu nomhlaba nakho konke okungaphakathi ngezinsuku eziyisithupha.
Uma ungakukholwa lokhu, kodwa esikhundleni salokho kholwa lokho isayensi ekutshela kona futhi ucabangele ukuziphendukela kwemvelo hhayi imfundiso ewubuwula yomuntu, kodwa iqiniso, ngakho awukholelwa kuNkulunkulu nasemazwini Akhe, kodwa ngamazwi omuntu.
Ngokukholelwa emazwini omuntu ngaphezu kwamazwi kaNkulunkulu, uthi uNkulunkulu ungumqambimanga nokuthi okulotshwe eBhayibhelini; IZwi lakhe alilona iqiniso, Kepha amanga.
UNkulunkulu unguMdali wezulu nomhlaba?
Naphezu kwalokho okushiwo yisayensi, iZwi likaNkulunkulu liyasifundisa, lowo Nkulunkulu IS UMdali wezulu nomhlaba nakho konke kungaphakathi. Akukho ndawo eBhayibhelini lapho kukhona ukuqhuma okukhulu noma inqubo yokuziphendukela kwemvelo komhlaba, izitshalo, izihlahla, izilwane, abantu, njll. okukhulunywe ngakho.
IZwi liyafakaza ngoNkulunkulu njengoMdali futhi liyavuma ukuthi uNkulunkulu wadala izulu nomhlaba nakho konke okungaphakathi.. Yebo, iZwi lize lifakaze ukuthi indalo ngokwayo ifakaza ngamandla kaNkulunkulu nobuNkulunkulu Bakhe. Ukuze, akekho onezaba, nini (s)uyokuma phambi kwesihlalo sobukhosi sikaNkulunkulu ngosuku lokwahlulela. Akekho ongasho, lokho (s)wayengazi.
Ngokuba okungabonwayo kwakhe kwasekudalweni kwezwe kubonakala obala, Ukuqondwa ngezinto ezenziwayo, Ngisho namandla akhe aphakade nonkulunkulu; ukuze ngaphandle kwesaba (Rom 1:20)
Lolu wusuku uJehova alwenzile; siyakwethaba, sithokoze kulo (Isu leminiso sikhathi 118:24)
UHezekiya wakhuleka phambi kukaJehova, wathi, O Nkosi Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, elihlala phakathi kwamakherubi, wena unguNkulunkulu, ngitsho wena wedwa, yayo yonke imibuso yomhlaba; Wena wenzile izulu nomhlaba (2 nini 19:15)
Wena, yebo wena, unguJehova yedwa; Wenze izulu, izulu lamazulu, nabo bonke ababambisene nabo, Umhlaba, nezinto zonke ezikuwo, izilwandle, nakho konke okukuyo, futhi Uyabalondoloza bonke; nebandla lasezulwini likhuleka kuwe (Neh 9:6)
Amazulu amemezela inkazimulo kaNkulunkulu; nomkhathi ubonakalisa umsebenzi wezandla zakhe (Isu leminiso sikhathi 19:1)
Ngezwi likaJehova izulu lenziwa; nalo lonke ibandla lawo ngomoya womlomo wakhe. Uyabutha amanzi olwandle njengenqwaba: Ubeka ukujula ezinqolobaneni. Umhlaba wonke mawumesabe uJehova: bonke abakhileyo emhlabeni mabamesabe. Ngokuba Wakhuluma, kwase kwenziwa; Wayala, futhi yema yaqina (Isu leminiso sikhathi 33:6-9)
Nibusisiwe nguJehova owenza izulu nomhlaba. Izulu, ngisho amazulu, abeNkosi: kepha umhlaba uwunikile abantwana babantu (Isu leminiso sikhathi 115:15-16)
Usizo lwami luvela kuJehova, owenza izulu nomhlaba (Isu leminiso sikhathi 121:2)
UJehova owenza izulu nomhlaba makakubusise eseSiyoni (Isu leminiso sikhathi 134:3)
Ubusisiwe lowo omsizi wakhe uNkulunkulu kaJakobe, othemba lakhe likuJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe:
Okwenza izulu, nomhlaba, ulwandle, nakho konke okukuyo: ogcina iqiniso kuze kube phakade (Isu leminiso sikhathi 146:5-6)
Mabadumise iGama leNkosi: ngoba walaya, zadalwa.
Futhi uzimisile kuze kube phakade naphakade: Wenzile isimemezelo esingayikwedlula (Isu leminiso sikhathi 148:5-6))
Nkosi, Wena unguNkulunkulu, owenzile izulu, nomhlaba, kanye nolwandle, nakho konke okukubo (IzEnzo 4:24)
Nathi singabantu abanemizwa efana neyenu, ngishumayele kini ukuthi niphenduke kulezi zithixo eziyize nibuyele kuNkulunkulu ophilayo, elenza izulu, nomhlaba, kanye nolwandle, nezinto zonke ezikuwo (IzEnzo 14:15)
Mesabeni uNkulunkulu, nimnike inkazimulo; ngoba ihola lokwahlulela kwakhe selifikile: nikhuleke kuye owenza izulu, nomhlaba, kanye nolwandle, nemithombo yamanzi (Emuva 14:7)
(Funda futhi: 2Kuya 2:12, Umsebenzi 38-41, Isu leminiso sikhathi 124:8, Isiboshwa 37:16)
Ingabe uNkulunkulu wadala umhlaba ngezinsuku eziyisithupha noma iminyaka eyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha?
Ingabe ngempela indalo yadalwa ngezinsuku eziyisithupha njengoba iZwi likaNkulunkulu lisho? Noma ingabe indalo yadalwa eminyakeni eyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha, njengoba abantu abaningi besho?
Abantu, abaqhamuke nalesi sitatimende bathi, ukuthi kwathatha iminyaka eyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha uNkulunkulu ukudala umhlaba, bebengami eqinisweni leZwi likaNkulunkulu, kodwa bazivumela ukuba bathonywe ukuhlakanipha nolwazi lwalelizwe futhi bazama ukuxuba ukuziphendukela kwemvelo neBhayibheli; IZwi LikaNkulunkulu.
Lesi sitatimende nesifundiso siphuma emqondweni wenyama, elingakwazi ukuqonda futhi likholelwe ukuthi kwathatha usuku olulodwa nje uNkulunkulu ukuba adale okuthile ngaphandle kweze.
Umqondo wenyama awukwazi ukuqonda nokuqonda, ungabiza kanjani izinto, ezingenjengokungathi zikhona, futhi enze okuthile kube khona kusuka endaweni yomoya kuya endaweni yemvelo. Ukuze basekele amafilosofi nezimfundiso zabo kanye nencazelo yabo engokomfanekiso yegama elithi ‘yôm’ bacaphuna imibhalo elandelayo:
Ngokuba iminyaka eyinkulungwane emehlweni akho injengezolo lapho selidlulile, nanjengomlindo wasebusuku (Isu leminiso sikhathi 90:4)
Kodwa, bathandekayo, ningazi lutho ngale nto eyodwa, ukuthi usuku olulodwa eNkosini lunjengeminyaka eyinkulungwane, neminyaka eyinkulungwane njengosuku olulodwa (2 Isifuba khadi 3:8)
Kodwa le mibhalo emibili ayihlanganise lutho nendalo kodwa ihlobene nomehluko phakathi kwendlela uNkulunkulu abheka ngayo isikhathi nendlela umuntu wemvelo wenyama asibheka ngayo isikhathi.. Ngoba isikhathi sikaNkulunkulu sihlukile kunesomuntu. KumaHubo 90 imayelana nempilo yomuntu wemvelo kanye naphakathi 2 UPetru 3:8 imayelana nesithembiso ukubuya kukaJesu.
IZwi liyafakaza, ukuthi uNkulunkulu wadala izulu nomhlaba ngezinsuku eziyisithupha nokuthi uNkulunkulu waphumula ngosuku lwesikhombisa:
Kwaqedwa kanjalo izulu nomhlaba, nebandla labo lonke. UNkulunkulu waqeda ngosuku lwesikhombisa umsebenzi wakhe abewenzile; waphumula ngosuku lwesikhombisa emsebenzini wakhe wonke abewenzile. Futhi uNkulunkulu wabusisa usuku lwesikhombisa, futhi walingcwelisa: ngoba ngalo waphumula kuwo wonke umsebenzi wakhe uNkulunkulu awudalile wawenza. Lezi ziyizizukulwane zezulu nomhlaba ekudalweni kwakho, mhla uJehova uNkulunkulu edala umhlaba nezulu (Gen 2:1-4)
Ngokuba ngezinsuku eziyisithupha uJehova wenza izulu nomhlaba, ulwandle, nakho konke okukubo, waphumula ngosuku lwesikhombisa: ngalokho uJehova walubusisa usuku lwesabatha, futhi wayingcwelisa (U wanga 20:11)
Ngokuba ngezinsuku eziyisithupha uJehova wenza izulu nomhlaba, waphumula ngosuku lwesikhombisa, futhi waqabuleka (U wanga 31:17)
Ukukhanya kungaba khona kanjani ilanga lingakadalwa?
Abantu abaningi bayakungabaza ngobuqiniso, ukwethembeka, kanye nokwethembeka kweZwi likaNkulunkulu ngoba kuGenesise 1 kulotshiwe, ukuthi ukukhanya nemini nobusuku kwadalwa futhi kwakukhona ngaphambi kwelanga, inyanga, kwadalwa izinkanyezi. Kodwa kungaba kanjani ukukhanya ngaphandle kwelanga?
Abantu abaningi bathi, ukuthi lokhu akunakwenzeka ngakho-ke bathi iBhayibheli alilona iqiniso! Ngoba ilanga likhiqiza ukukhanya. Futhi uma ilanga ladalwa ngosuku lwesine, khona-ke ukukhanya nemini nobusuku kungaba khona kanjani ngaphambi kwelanga, inyanga, nezinkanyezi? Ngakho-ke bakhetha ukukholelwa ukuziphendukela kwemvelo futhi babheke ukuziphendukela kwemvelo njengeqiniso.
Kodwa bekungeke kube kuhle, ukube amakholwa abenentshisekelo ngezinto zikamoya zoMbuso kaNkulunkulu njengoba ososayensi besendaweni yemvelo futhi batadisha futhi bacwaninge imibhalo njengososayensi abafunda futhi bacwaninge.?
Ukukhanya, uNkulunkulu awudala ngosuku lokuqala kungukukhanya, okuvela kuYe. Ukukhanya kuvela kuNkulunkulu hhayi elangeni. UNkulunkulu ubusa phezu kokukhanya hhayi ilanga. Ngoba uNkulunkulu ungukukhanya.
NginguJehova, futhi akukho okunye, akakho uNkulunkulu ngaphandle Kwami: ngikubhincile, noma ungangazi Mina: ukuze bazi kusukela ekuphumeni kwelanga, futhi kusukela entshonalanga, ukuthi akakho omunye ngaphandle Kwami. NginguJehova, futhi akukho okunye. Ngakha ukukhanya, futhi adale ubumnyama: Ngenza ukuthula, futhi adale ububi: Mina Jehova ngenza zonke izinto (Isiboshwa 45:5-7)
UNkulunkulu wahlukanisa ukukhanya nobumnyama wabiza ukukhanya: imini nobumnyama: ubusuku. Imini nobusuku kwakukhona ngaphambi kwezinkanyiso; ilanga, inyanga nezinkanyezi, zadalwa.
Lapho izulu, umhlaba owomile; kwadalwa umhlaba nezilwandle, kwase kuyisikhathi sokudalwa kwezinkanyiso emkhathini wezulu
UNkulunkulu wayesekudalile kakade ukukhanya futhi wayesevele ehlukanise imini nobusuku, kodwa manje usedale futhi wamisa izinkanyiso, lokho kwakuyoba nesibopho sokukhanya emhlabeni.
Ukukhanya nemini nobusuku kwase kukhona, kodwa manje Unikeze isibopho negunya elangeni, inyanga nezinkanyezi. Kusukela osukwini lwesine, babeyoba nesibopho sokukhanya emhlabeni.
Njengoba nje uNkulunkulu enikeze umthwalo kanye nokubusa kumuntu phezu komhlaba kanye nendawo yawo. UNkulunkulu wayeseqedile ukudala, kodwa Wadlulisela umthwalo kanye nobukhosi kumuntu (Gen 1:26-28, Isu leminiso sikhathi 115:16)
Ukudalwa kwelanga, inyanga, nezinkanyezi ngosuku lwesine
Usho kanje uJehova, onika ilanga libe ngukukhanya emini, nezimiso zenyanga nezezinkanyezi zibe ngukukhanya ebusuku (Ngoba 31:35)
Ngosuku lwesine, UNkulunkulu wadala ilanga, inyanga, nezinkanyezi, wazibeka emkhathini wezulu, wazilaya ukuthi zikhanyise emini lebusuku. Kwakuyikhomishini leyo, uNkulunkulu alinike ilanga, inyanga, nezinkanyezi (Indalo yakhe). UNkulunkulu wabenza baba nesibopho sokukhanya.
Kusukela ngalolo suku, babenomthwalo wemfanelo ukwahlukanisa imini nobusuku, kube yizimpawu, kanye nezinkathi zonyaka, futhi izinsuku neminyaka, futhi zibe yizinkanyiso emkhathini wezulu zokukhanyisa emhlabeni.
UNkulunkulu wanika ilanga amandla okubusa phezu kwemini futhi wanika inyanga nezinkanyezi amandla okubusa ubusuku nokuhlukanisa ukukhanya nobumnyama.. Lapho uNkulunkulu edala ilanga, inyanga, nezinkanyezi, wazinika amandla okukhanyisa, nokubusa imini nobusuku, UNkulunkulu wabona ukuthi kuhle (Gen 1:14-19)
UNkulunkulu unguMdali wokukhanya hhayi ilanga
Usuku ngolwaKho, nobusuku bungobakho: Nguwe owalungisa ukukhanya nelanga (Isu leminiso sikhathi 74:16)
Ukukhanya kuvela kuNkulunkulu. Ukukhanya kudalwe uNkulunkulu hhayi ilanga. Ilanga alenzanga usuku, nenyanga nezinkanyezi akukwenzanga ubusuku. Kodwa uNkulunkulu wadala ukukhanya futhi wahlukanisa ukukhanya nobumnyama. UNkulunkulu wenza imini nobusuku hhayi indalo yakhe.
UNkulunkulu wanikeza umyalo elangeni ukuba likhanyise emhlabeni, kodwa ilanga lidalwe nguNkulunkulu ngakho-ke liyindalo kaNkulunkulu futhi ngenxa yalokho, ilanga lingase lingakhonzwa.
Mhlawumbe uNkulunkulu wadala ukukhanya nemini nobusuku ngaphambi kokuba adale ilanga, inyanga, nezinkanyezi, ukuvimbela abantu ukuthi bacabange ukuthi ilanga, inyanga, futhi izinkanyezi zinikeza ukukhanya futhi zibheke njengonkulunkulu(s) futhi ubakhonze, njengoba kwenzeka emasikweni amaningi amaqaba.
UNkulunkulu wabenqabela abantu baKhe, ukukhonza ilanga, inyanga, nezinkanyezi. Uma umuntu engeke agcine umyalo waKhe futhi akhonze ilanga, inyanga, nezinkanyezi, khona-ke lowo muntu wayezojeziswa ngesigwebo sokufa (Kwanikeza 4:19, Kwanikeza 17:3-5).
Naphezu kwamazwi nemiyalo kaNkulunkulu, naphezu kwezixwayiso zaKhe, Abantu bakhe babevame ukuzulazula futhi bangene endleleni yamasiko amaqaba futhi bakhulekele ilanga, inyanga, nezinkanyezi (2 Kuya 23:5-5, 2 Kuya 23:11, Sti 8:16)
Kodwa ilanga alisiye unkulunkulu futhi alisoze laba unkulunkulu, kodwa ilanga liyindalo yesandla sikaNkulunkulu futhi liyohlala liyindalo kaNkulunkulu. Ilanga liwufakazi kaNkulunkulu nobukhulu nobukhosi Bakhe.
Amazulu amemezela inkazimulo kaNkulunkulu; nomkhathi ubonakalisa umsebenzi wezandla zakhe. Usuku nosuku lukhuluma inkulumo, nobusuku bunikeza ubusuku ukwazi. Akukho nkulumo noma ulimi, lapho izwi labo lingezwakali. Intambo yawo iphumele emhlabeni wonke, lamazwi abo kuze kube sekupheleni komhlaba. Umisele ilanga itabernakele kuzo, Enjengomkhwenyana ephuma ekamelweni lakhe, futhi ithokoza njengendoda enamandla ukugijima umncintiswano. Ukuphuma kwakhe kuvela emkhawulweni wezulu, nokujikeleza kwayo kuze kube sekugcineni kwayo: akukho okufihlakele ekushiseni kwawo (Isu leminiso sikhathi 19:1-6)
Amazulu amemezela inkazimulo kaNkulunkulu; nomkhathi ubonakalisa umsebenzi wezandla zakhe (Isu leminiso sikhathi 19:1)
Wamisa inyanga ibe ngezinkathi zonyaka: ilanga liyakwazi ukutshona kwalo (Isu leminiso sikhathi 104:19)
Igunya likaNkulunkulu phezu kwelanga
Lapho uJoshuwa ekhuluma kuJehova futhi wayala ilanga nenyanga ukuba zime, balalela. Ekuziphatheni kukaJoshuwa, sibona ukholo lwakhe kuNkulunkulu, owayala indalo kaNkulunkulu ukuthi ime, futhi uNkulunkulu wezwa futhi waphendula amazwi kaJoshuwa futhi ilanga nenyanga zalalela futhi zama (Uma 10:12-13, Hab 3:11).
Izazi zemfundiso yenkolo zithi, ukuthi lokhu akwenzekanga ngempela, kodwa ukuthi isingathekiso. Ososayensi bathi, ukuthi lesi sigameko kwakungukusitheka kwelanga. Kodwa ngokusho lokhu, babukela phansi uNkulunkulu uSomandla kanye nobukhulu namandla Akhe.
Okufanayo kuyasebenza ophawini, uNkulunkulu alinika uHizkia, ukuthi ithunzi lelanga liyohlehla amadigri ayishumi ukusuka ezitebhisini. Ilanga lalalela izwi likaNkulunkulu, labuya amazinga ayishumi.
Bheka, ngiyakubuyisa isithunzi seziqu, elase lishona ilanga lika-Ahazi, amadigri ayishumi emuva. Ngakho ilanga labuya amadigri ayishumi, kwehle ngaziphi iziqu (Isiboshwa 38:8)
Ubumnyama
Kuzofika usuku, ukuthi ilanga, inyanga, nezinkanyezi ngeke zisakunika ukukhanya kwazo, ngenxa yezono ezisemhlabeni. Izono ziyakuba nkulu emhlabeni, ukuthi indalo, kuhlanganise nelanga, inyanga, nezinkanyezi, uzohlupheka.
Lokhu futhi kwenzeka lapho uJesu ethatha zonke izono zomhlaba phezu Kwakhe futhi isono samnqoba. Lokhu kwabonakala endaweni yemvelo ngobumnyama, eyabusa phezu komhlaba kusukela ngehora lesithupha kwaze kwaba yihora lesishiyagalolunye (Mat 27:45, Mar 15:33).
Bheka, usuku lweNkosi luyeza, Unonya kokubili ulaka kanye nentukuthelo evuthayo, ukubeka umhlaba uyincithakalo: futhi uyobhubhisa izoni kuwo. Ngokuba iziqalo zezulu nemilaza yazo aziyikukhanya: Ilanga liyoba mnyama emzimbeni lapho ephumayo, Futhi inyanga ngeke ibangele ukukhanya kwayo kukhanye (Isiboshwa 13:9-10)
Lapho ngizokukhipha, Ngizomboza izulu, futhi wenze izinkanyezi zalo zimnyama; Ngizomboza ilanga ngefu, Inyanga ayiyikumnika ukukhanya. Zonke izibani ezikhanyayo zezulu ngiyokwenza ubumnyama phezu kwakho, wabeka ubumnyama ezweni lakho, isho iNkosi uJehova (Sti 32:7-8)
Umhlaba uyazamazama phambi kwabo; Amazulu azothuthumela: Ilanga nenyanga kuzoba mnyama, Futhi izinkanyezi zizokhipha ukukhanya kwazo (UJoe 2:10)
Futhi ngizobonakalisa izimangaliso ezulwini nasemhlabeni, igazi nomlilo, nezinsika zentuthu. Ilanga lizoguqulwa laba ubumnyama, nenyanga igazi, ngaphambi kosuku olukhulu nolwesabekayo lweNkosi (UJoe 2:30-31)
Ilanga nenyanga kuyakufiphazwa, nezinkanyezi zihoxise ukukhanya kwazo (UJoe 3:15)
Futhi kuyokwenzeka ngalolo suku, isho iNkosi uJehova, ukuthi ngizakutshonisa ilanga emini, futhi ngizokwenza ubumnyama emhlabeni ngosuku olucwathile (Amo 8:9)
Masinyane nje emva kosizi lwalezozinsuku lezo zinzulu ziba mnyama, Inyanga ayiyikumnika ukukhanya, Izinkanyezi ziyakuwa ezulwini, namandla ezulu ayanyakaziswa (Mat 24:29, Mar 13:24-25, Uhu 21:25-26)
Ngase ngibona lapho livula uphawu lwesithupha, futhi, lo, kwaba khona ukuzamazama komhlaba okukhulu; ilanga laba mnyama njengesaka loboya, inyanga yaba njengegazi; Izinkanyezi zezulu zawela emhlabeni, Njengoba umkhiwane uphonsa amakhiwane akhe kungapheli, Lapho enyakaziswa komoya onamandla (Emuva 6:12-13)
Ingelosi yesine yayisibetha, nengxenye yesithathu yelanga yashaywa, lengxenye yesithathu yenyanga, lengxenye yesithathu yezinkanyezi; kangangokuthi ingxenye yesithathu yazo yaba mnyama, nosuku alukhanyi ngengxenye yesithathu yalo, nobusuku ngokunjalo (Emuva 8:12)
Kungaba khona kanjani ukukhanya ngaphandle kwezibani?
Kungaba khona kanjani ukukhanya ngaphandle kwelanga, inyanga, nezinkanyezi? UNkulunkulu akancikile elangeni, inyanga, nezinkanyezi. Ngoba emhlabeni omusha nezulu, ngeke libe khona ilanga, inyanga, nezinkanyezi. Kepha uNkulunkulu uyakuba ngukukhanya okuphakade, akhanyisele abangcwele.
Ilanga alisayikuba ngukukhanya kwakho emini; nenyanga ayiyikukukhanyisela ngenxa yokukhanya: kepha uJehova uyakuba ngukukhanya okuphakade kuwe, noNkulunkulu wakho inkazimulo yakho. Ilanga lakho alisayikushona; nenyanga yakho ayiyikugoqa: ngokuba uJehova uyakuba ngukukhanya kwakho okuphakade, lezinsuku zokulila kwakho zizaphela (Isiboshwa 60:19-20)
Ubusuku abuyikuba khona lapho; futhi abalidingi ikhandlela, nokukhanya kwelanga; ngoba iNkosi uNkulunkulu iyabakhanyisela: bayakubusa kuze kube phakade naphakade (Emuva 22:5)
Ingabe umuntu wakhiwe ngothuli noma izinkawu ezishintshile?
IBhayibheli lithi, ukuthi uNkulunkulu wadala umuntu ngothuli lomhlaba, emva komfanekiso kaNkulunkulu (El-elohim; UNkulunkulu, iZwi, noMoya oNgcwele). UNkulunkulu wadala umuntu ngothuli lomhlaba futhi waphefumulela emakhaleni akhe umoya wokuphila futhi umuntu waba umphefumulo ophilayo.
Nokho, ngokusho kukaMnu. Darwin, umuntu akadalwanga uNkulunkulu, kodwa umuntu uyinkawu eguqukile. Ngokusho kwakhe, abantu bebeyophuma ohlotsheni lwenkawu efanayo njenge-orangutan, i-gorilla, kanye nemfene. I-chimpanzee yisiteji ngaphambi kokuvela kumuntu. Le mfundiso isekelwe eqinisweni, ukuthi imfene inokuningi okufana nomuntu.
Kodwa isilwane esinemilenze emine singaba kanjani umuntu onemilenze emibili? Futhi uma umuntu engavela kulolu hlobo lwezinkawu, pho kungani engazange wonke ama-orangutan, ama-gorilla nezimfene ziguqukela kumuntu? Ukube lesi sitatimende sizoba yiqiniso, kwenzeka kanjani ukuthi kube nohlobo olulodwa kuphela lwezinhlobo zezinkawu eziye zavela futhi zonke ezinye izinhlobo zezimfene azizange ziguquke? Futhi kuthiwani ngezinye izilwane? Kungani bengaguquki kwezinye izidalwa?
Kuyamangalisa, hlobo luni lwethonya nomthelela amazwi omuntu oyedwa angaba nawo esintwini sonke. Kuvuka umuntu ongqondongqondo wenyama asakaze amanga akhe; amafilosofi akhe, ezisekelwe kulokho akutholile nasemicabangweni yakhe.
Ngabe uMnu. UDarwin uye wachitha izimfundiso zakhe ngaphambi kokuba afe noma cha, akubalulekile. Kumayelana nethonya elikhulu izitatimende nezimfundiso zakhe ezinawo kwisayensi yemvelo yesimanje kanye nalokho abantu abakwenzayo ngezimfundiso zakhe.. Ngoba isayensi yemvelo isakholelwa emazwini akhe futhi isasebenzisa izimfundiso zakhe futhi ikholelwa ukuthi abantu bavela ezimfeneni..
Futhi ngoba abantu abaningi, abathi bakholwa kuNkulunkulu, abazalwa ngokusha futhi ngenxa yalokho abanakho okungokomoya futhi basenawo umqondo wenyama, bakholelwa amazwi omuntu ngaphezu kwamazwi kaNkulunkulu.
Kodwa iZwi likhuluma ngokumelene nazo zonke izitatimende okwakhiwe phezu kwazo ukuziphendukela kwemvelo. Lithi iZwi, ukuthi yonke inyama ayinyamanye. Futhi yingakho inyama yezinkawu ingasoze yaba inyama yabantu.
Yonke inyama ayifani: kodwa lunye uhlobo lwenyama yabantu, enye inyama yezilwane, enye yezinhlanzi, nenye yezinyoni. (1 NoRor 15:39)
IZwi liyafakaza, ukuthi uNkulunkulu wadala umuntu ngothuli lomhlabathi ngomfanekiso kaNkulunkulu:
Futhi uNkulunkulu wathi, Masenze umuntu esithombeni sethu, Ngemuva kokufana kwethu: Futhi mababusi phezu kwezinhlanzi zolwandle, Ngaphezulu kwenyoni yomoya, futhi phezu kwezinkomo, naphezu komhlaba wonke, Futhi phezu kwayo yonke into emfishane ekhakule umhlaba. Ngakho-ke uNkulunkulu wadala umuntu ngomfanekiso wakhe, Ngomfanekiso kaNkulunkulu wadala yena; Owesilisa nowesifazane bazidalile (Gen 1:26-27)
UJehova uNkulunkulu watshala insimu e-Edene ngasempumalanga; wambeka lapho umuntu ayembumbile (Gen 2:8)
Futhi uJehova uNkulunkulu wabumba ngomhlabathi zonke izilwane zasendle, nezinyoni zonke zezulu; waziletha ku-Adamu ukuze abone ukuthi angaziqamba ngokuthini: nalokho u-Adamu azibiza ngakho konke okuphilayo, lelo kwakuyigama layo (Gen 2:19)
Futhi uNkulunkulu wabona ukuthi ububi bomuntu bukhulu emhlabeni, nokuthi yonke imicabango yemicabango yenhliziyo yakhe ibilungile njalo. Kwaphenduka iNkosi ukuthi wayenze umuntu emhlabeni, Futhi kwamzwisa ubuhlungu enhliziyweni yakhe. INKOSI yathi, Ngizobhubhisa umuntu engikudalele ebusweni bomhlaba; bobabili indoda, nesilo, nento emfushane, nezinyoni zomoya; ngoba phenduka kimi ukuthi ngizenzile (Gen 6:5-7)
Ochitha igazi lomuntu, igazi lakhe lizachithwa ngabantu: ngoba ngomfanekiso kaNkulunkulu wenza umuntu (Gen 9:6)
UMoya kaNkulunkulu ungenze, nokuphefumula kukaSomandla kwangiphilisa. (Umsebenzi 33:4)
Yazini ukuthi iNkosi inguNkulunkulu: nguye osenzileyo, futhi hhayi thina ngokwethu; singabantu baKhe, nezimvu zedlelo laKhe. (Isu leminiso sikhathi 100:3)
Ngizokudumisa; ngoba ngenziwe ngokwesaba futhi ngokumangalisayo: Kuyamangaza yimisebenzi yakho;
nokuthi umphefumulo wami uyazi kahle. Inyama yami yayingafihlekile kuWe, Lapho ngenziwa ngasese, futhi yenziwa ngokuqinile ezingxenyeni eziphansi zomhlaba. (Isu leminiso sikhathi 139:13-14)
Ngalolo suku umuntu uyobheka kuMenzi wakhe, amehlo akhe ayakubheka oNgcwele ka-Israyeli (Isiboshwa 17:7)
Usho kanje uNkulunkulu INKOSI, Lowo owadala amazulu, futhi wazeluleka; Lowo osakaza umhlaba, nokuthi lokho kuphuma kukho; Lowo onika uphefumulela kubantu kuwo, noMoya kubo abahamba kuwo (Isiboshwa 42:5)
II ngenze umhlaba, futhi wadala umuntu phezu kwayo: I, ngisho izandla Zami, welule amazulu, Futhi wonke umkhosi wabo ngiyalwa (Isiboshwa 45:12)
Ngenzile Umhlaba, umuntu nesilwane esisemhlabeni, ngamandla ami amakhulu nangengalo yami eyeluliweyo, ngilinike lowo engibone kufanele (Ngoba 27:5)
Kodwa kusukela ekuqaleni kokudalwa uNkulunkulu wabenza owesilisa nowesifazane (Mar 10:6, Mat 19:4)
(Funda futhi: Gen 5:1-2, Umsebenzi 4:17, Isiboshwa 64:8, Uhlobo 12:1, Mal 2:10, UJames 3:9)
IZwi likaNkulunkulu
Yonke imibhalo iphefumulelwe nguNkulunkulu, futhi inenzuzo yokufundisa, ngokusola, ukuze kulungiswe, ukuze kufundiswe ekulungeni: Ukuze umuntu kaNkulunkulu aphelele, ifakwe kahle kuyo yonke imisebenzi emihle (2 UThim 3:16-17)
Wonke amazwi kaNkulunkulu, okulotshwe eBhayibhelini kungamazwi kamoya futhi aphethe ukuphila kukaNkulunkulu. Wonke amazwi kaNkulunkulu, lokho kutshalwa empilweni yekholwa, kuncike emhlabathini nokukhulisa, bathele izithelo noma bangathele. IBhayibheli liyisinkwa sikamoya kanye Insinjana yokudweba isiyingi kumuntu omusha, ozelwe ngokusha kuJesu Kristu, futhi iholela umuntu omusha eqinisweni likaNkulunkulu.
Uma nje uchezuka eZwini futhi ushiye iZwi, futhi uphile ngemva kwemicabango yakho, amafilosofi, okutholakele, Imibono, imizwa, kanye nokuhlangenwe nakho, uzochezuka umusa futhi uthembele ekwazini kwakho, ulwazi, nokuhlakanipha, ezakhiwe yizwe. Aniyikuphila ngokukholwa emva kweZwi futhi nishumayele iZwi, kodwa uzoshumayela futhi uhambe ngokholo kuwena; ulwazi lwakho, ukuhlakanipha, kanye.
Ngalesosikhathi uJesu waphendula wathi, ngiyakubonga, O Baba, Nkosi yezulu nomhlaba, ngoba uzifihlile lezizinto kwabahlakaniphileyo labaqedisisayo, futhi uzembulele izingane (Mat 11:25)
UPawulu wema eqinile okholweni futhi washumayela ngoJesu Kristu
UPawulu wakholelwa kuJesu Kristu futhi wema eqinile okholweni. Akazange ayekethise ekuhlakanipheni kwezwe namafilosofi akhe, ngoba wathatha ukuhlakanipha lolwazi lwalumhlaba njengobuthutha (1 Ukukhanywa 1:20). Ngokusho komhlaba, UPawulu wayengumuntu onekhono. Nokho, lapho eba nokuhlangana noJesu Kristu, wabeka phansi ukuhlakanipha kwakhe kwasemhlabeni nolwazi futhi wembatha uJesu Kristu futhi bamlandela.
UPawulu wayesephenduke isidalwa esisha futhi uMoya oNgcwele wahlala kuye. Akazange asebenzise zonke izinhlobo zamagama aphoqayo omuntu, kodwa weza ngamandla kaNkulunkulu futhi wakhuluma amazwi Akhe ngegunya
Lapho uPawulu ese-Athene, ezinye izazi zefilosofi zamaEpikhuru namaStoyiki zazinelukuluku lokwazi ngezimfundiso zakhe ezintsha. UPawulu akazange esabe futhi athonywe yibo nezimfundiso zabo futhi akazange alushiye ukholo lwakhe. Kodwa uPawulu washumayela ngoJesu Kristu nokuvuka kwakhe nangenxa yokushumayela kwakhe isiphambano, abanye babo beza ekukholweni (IzEnzo 17:17-34).
Ukumesaba uJehova kungukuqala kokuhlakanipha
Umehluko omkhulu phakathi kwangaleso sikhathi namanje unjalo, ukuthi abaprofethi beTestamente Elidala nabaphostoli nabafundi bakaJesu eTestamenteni Elisha babenokwesaba (ukwesaba) kaNkulunkulu. Ngenxa yokwesaba kwabo uNkulunkulu, babenokuhlakanipha kukaNkulunkulu. Bavuma uNkulunkulu njengoMdali wezulu nomhlaba nakho konke okungaphakathi futhi babheka konke ayekukhulumile nakusho njengeqiniso..
Bahlala bethembekile kuYe, naphezu kokushushiswa kwabantu. Ngoba uma ufunda iTestamente Elidala neTestamente Elisha, khona-ke niyaqaphela ukuthi akekho kubaprofethi, abaphostoli, labafundi, ababemiswe uNkulunkulu futhi bakhuluma iqiniso Lakhe, babethandwa ngempela.
Hhayi-ke, babethandwa uma kukhona okwakudingeka kwenzeke ngoba basenkingeni, noma uma bedinga, ukuphulukisa, izwi lolwazi, ukuhlakanipha mayelana nendaba ethile noma enye into.
Kodwa ngokushesha nje umprofethi, umphostoli noma umfundi weza wakhuluma ngeGama likaNkulunkulu futhi wabhekana nabo ngokuziphatha kwabo futhi wababizela ekuphendukeni noma lapho beprofetha ngesenzakalo esizayo., lokho bekungekuhle, khona-ke ngokuzumayo babengasathandwa kangako futhi bashushiswa futhi baboshwa.
Abanye baze bagwetshwa intambo, ngoba nje bakhuluma iqiniso likaNkulunkulu futhi baprofetha eGameni laKhe. Futhi into ebuhlungu, ukuthi kaningi babengayalwa ukuba bathule futhi baboshwe futhi babulawe abangakholwa; Abezizwe, kodwa ngabantu babo.
Lokhu akwenzekanga eTestamenteni Elidala kuphela, kodwa naseTestamenteni Elisha futhi kusenzeka (Mat 23:31, Uhu 11:47, 1 Th 2:14-16).
Uyakholelwa yini eZwini likaNkulunkulu?
Kunezimpikiswano eziningi ezengeziwe eziphikisana nemfundiso yokuziphendukela kwemvelo. Kodwa uma ngingacaphuna yonke imibhalo evela eBhayibhelini futhi ngicaphune bonke ubufakazi nezimpikiswano, ngeke kusize ukuncenga umuntu wenyama wemvelo onomqondo wenyama kule mfundiso engamanga.
Konke kumayelana nento eyodwa futhi kunjalo: uyakholelwa yini eZwini likaNkulunkulu? Uyakholwa ukuthi iBhayibheli liyiZwi likaNkulunkulu futhi limele Yena? Uyakholwa ukuthi iBhayibheli liyiQiniso? Ngoba ngaphandle kokholo akunakwenzeka ukujabulisa uNkulunkulu. Inyama nomqondo wenyama akukwazi ukukholwa. Ngoba ukholo luyisithelo somoya hhayi senyama.
Indalo emisha kuphela, omoya wabo uvuswa kwabafileyo, bayakwazi ukuqonda futhi bakholwe iBhayibheli; IZwi LikaNkulunkulu.
Labo, abazelwe nguNkulunkulu bayakulilalela izwi lakhe. Ngakho-ke, bayolalela iZwi futhi benze lokho iZwi elibatshela ukuba bakwenze. Bazalwa nguNkulunkulu futhi bakholelwa ukuthi uNkulunkulu unguMdali wezulu nomhlaba nakho konke okungaphakathi.
Kubo bonke abanye abantu, iBhayibheli liwubuwula. Ngakho-ke ngeke balalele amazwi eBhayibheli. Kodwa bayolalela amazwi omuntu wenyama, abaphethe futhi abamele ukuhlakanipha nolwazi lwezwe.
Umuntu wenyama, ongekho emoyeni ungowezwe. Ngakho-ke umuntu wenyama uyolalela izwe futhi akholwe okushiwo yizwe. Njengoba isayensi iwulwazi lwezwe umuntu wenyama ukholelwa okushiwo yisayensi, kuhlanganise nokuziphendukela kwemvelo.
Wonke umuntu unikezwe inkululeko yokuzikhethela. Ngakho-ke wonke umuntu ukhululekile ukukholwa futhi enze noma yini (s)ufuna. Wonke umuntu angase azikhethele ukukholelwa kulokho iBhayibheli elikushoyo noma lokho okushiwo izwe. Kodwa into eyodwa icacile, futhi lokho kungukuthi indalo kanye nokuziphendukela kwemvelo akukwazi ukuhambisana. Kungaba munye noma okunye.
