UDavide noJonathani babengabangane; babengabangane bomphefumulo. UJonathani wayethanda uDavide njengoba ezithanda yena futhi uthando lukaDavide ngoJonathani lwalumangalisa futhi ludlula uthando lwabesifazane. Kodwa ingabe lokhu kusho, ukuthi uDavide noJonathani babeyizitabane futhi benemizwa yobungqingili ngomunye nomunye? Lithini iBhayibheli ngobuhlobo bukaDavide noJonathani, babeyizithandwa zikaDavide noJonathani?
Ubungqingili
Ngaphambi kokuba sixoxe ngalolu daba, ake sibheke ubutabane. Ubungqingili (kanye nemizwa yobungqingili) kubangelwa umoya wenkanuko yobulili kanye nenkohlakalo. Lapho umoya wenkanuko nokonakala usebenza endaweni kamoya ubonakala endaweni yemvelo ezimpilweni zabantu.. Omunye wemiphumela yenyama yomoya wenkanuko nokonakala ubungqingili. Khumbula, ukuthi konke okwenzeka endaweni kamoya kubonakale endaweni yemvelo. Lapho imizwa yobungqingili nenkanuko ilawula umuntu, niyazi ukuthi umoya ongcolile wenkanuko nokonakala uyasebenza endaweni kamoya.
Lapho umuntu evumela lezi zinkanuko kanye nemizwa yobutabane, lo moya wenkanuko yobulili nokonakala uyolawula impilo yomuntu futhi uyobusa endaweni yomoya. Lo moya ngeke ulawule umuntu kuphela kodwa uzothinta futhi uzame ukungena nakwezinye izimpilo.
Lapho abantu beba nemizwa yobungqingili, amandla engeziwe azonikezwa lomoya omubi ongcolile, futhi yilapho abantu bethinteka futhi belawulwa yilo moya.
Akumangalisi ukuthi sibona ukwanda kobungqingili emhlabeni wonke. Bayanda abantu abaphumela obala ngobutabane babo, ubulili obubili, noma i-transgender.
Lomoya wenkanuko nokonakala ulawula izimpilo eziningi, kuhlanganise nezingqondo zabo. Ngenxa yalokho, ubudlelwano obuningi eBhayibhelini buhunyushwa ngokobulili nokuhlanekezela, kuhlanganise nobuhlobo phakathi kukaDavide noJonathani. Kodwa ingqondo eyonakele kuphela engashintsha ubudlelwano bukaNkulunkulu obuseBhayibhelini bube ubudlelwano bobulili obukhohlakele.
Umoya wenkanuko ubonakala endaweni yemvelo
ngenkulumo nangezenzo
Njengoba kuxoxwe ngakho kokuthunyelwe kwebhulogi kwangaphambilini, Lithini iBhayibheli ngobutabane”, lapho umoya wenkanuko yobulili nokonakala ulawula ingqondo yomuntu ubonakala endaweni yemvelo ngokuphila komuntu; ngenkulumo nangemisebenzi yakhe.
Bheka indlela izitabane eziningi ezixhumana ngayo. Izikhathi eziningi, inkulumo yabo iqukethe izinkulumo zobulili, amahlaya ocansi, noma amagama anencazelo yocansi efihliwe. Bheka ukuziqhenya kwezitabane, omagazini gay, izitabane zomculo, amafilimu ezitabane, izinhlelo zethelevishini noma amafilimu ahilela ubungqingili, imboni yomculo, imboni yezemfashini, njll. Konke kuvusa inkanuko futhi kugxile ocansini.
Umoya wenkanuko yobulili kanye nokuhlanekezela ulawula izimpilo zabo futhi yingakho ubulili bulawula ingqondo kanye nempilo yabo. Konke kugxile ocansini. Kodwa manje, ake sibheke ubungane bukaDavide noJonathani nokuthi uDavide noJonathani babeyizitabane yini.
Umphefumulo kaJonathani wawuhlangene nomphefumulo kaDavide
Futhi kwenzeka, eseqedile ukukhuluma kuSawule, ukuthi umphefumulo kaJonathani wanamathela umphefumulo kaDavide, uJonathani wamthanda njengomphefumulo wakhe (1 Samuweli 18:1)
UJonathani wayemesaba uJehova. Phakathi nempi namaFilisti, UJonathani wathembela kuJehova futhi wakholwa ukuthi uNkulunkulu uzowanikela amaFilisti esandleni sakhe. Ngakho uJonathani wamshiya uyise nebutho lakhe, futhi wahamba nodibi lwakhe ekamu lamaFilisti. UJonathani nodibi lwakhe bahamba ngokukholwa futhi uNkulunkulu wawanikela ngempela amaFilisti esandleni sakhe.
Naye uDavide wayemesaba uJehova, wahamba ngentando yakhe. Lapho uJonathani ebona uDavide, Umphefumulo kaJonathani wawuhlangene nomphefumulo kaDavide. UJonathani wathanda uDavide njengomphefumulo wakhe. Wayesethole umaqondana.
Sifunda ukuthi umphefumulo kaJonathani wawuhlanganiswe nomphefumulo kaDavide hhayi umzimba wakhe. Uthando lukaJonathani ngoDavide lwaluwubungane lobuzalwane nothando olungcwele.
Isivumelwano phakathi kukaDavide noJonathani
Lapho uJonathani ehamba noDavide endle, UJonathani wenza isivumelwano noDavide futhi wahilela uNkulunkulu. UJonathani wenza isivumelwano nendlu kaDavide, ngoba uJonathani wathanda uDavida njengomphefumulo wakhe; njengaye.
UJonathani wanika uDavide ingubo yakhe nezingubo zakhe (izikhali zakhe (1 Samuweli 18:3-4). Lokhu kwaba isiqinisekiso nomfanekiso ongokwesiprofetho wokuthi ubukhosi bukaSawule babungeke budlulele endodaneni yakhe uJonathani, kodwa kuDavida. Lokhu akuhlangene nocansi, kodwa lihlobene nothando lobuzalwane olungenabugovu.
Kodwa uma nilawulwa umoya omubi wenkanuko yobulili, khona-ke ungakwazi ngempela ukuhumusha lokhu ngendlela ehlanekezelwe engcolile.
Lapho uJonathani noDavide sebevalelisa, bakhale baqabulane (1 Samuweli 20:41). Ukuqabulana kwabo kwakuwukuqabula kobuzalwane okuvamile hhayi ukuqabulana okuvusa inkanuko. Kwakuvamile lapho amadoda amabili eqabulana.
Bheka u-Isaka, uLabani no-Esawu, owanga uJakobe. U-Aaron, who kissed Moses. Look at Samuel, who kissed Saul. Absalomu, who kissed everyone, who came to him (2 Samuweli 15:5). David kissed Barzillai (2 Samuweli 19:39). Jude kissed Jesus. The elders fell on Paul’s neck and kissed him (IzEnzo 20:37).
Jonathan loved David as himself
Uyothanda umakhelwane wakho njengoba uzithanda wena (Maka 12:31)
Jonathan loved David as a brother, as his own flesh and blood. He loved David as himself. Didn’t Jesus also give us the commandment, to love our neighbor as ourselves?
Does this mean, that we should have sexual relationships with our neighbors? Ngokuphambene nalokho!
You can meet someone of the same gender, with whom you have a spiritual connection. Someone whom you consider your soul mate. You love that person as your own brother or sister and you will share a lot of things. Sometimes even more than with your own spouse. But does that mean that you have a sexual relationship with that person? Cha, nimane ningumlingani womphefumulo womunye nomunye futhi nithandane njengomfowenu noma udadewenu. Ayihlangene nemizwa yobungqingili noma ucansi.
Uthando lukaDavide ngoJonathani lwalumangalisa,
edlulisa uthando lwabesifazane
Lapho uDavide ekhala, ngesililo sakhe ngoSawule noJonathani, ababulawa bobabili ngesikhathi sokulwa, uthe:” ngidabukile ngawe, umfowethu uJonathani: ubuthandeka kakhulu kimi: uthando lwakho kimi lwaluyisimangaliso, edlulisa uthando lwabesifazane”.
Ngakho, lokhu kufanele kube ubufakazi, ngokusho kwezitabane, ukuthi uDavide wayeyisitabane futhi uJonathani engungqingili nokuthi uDavide wayenobuhlobo bobulili obufanayo noJonathani. Kodwa amanga amakhulu lawo! Ngoba uma lokho kwakuyiqiniso, khona-ke uDavide wayezoba nobuhlobo bobulili obufanayo noSawule. Njengoba nayo ibhaliwe: OSawule noJonathani babebahle, bethandeka ekuphileni kwabo,
Uthando lukaDavide ngoJonathani lwaluwuthando lobuzalwane lokwesaba uNkulunkulu olungenabugovu, lokho kwakungaphezu kothando ayenalo ngabantu besifazane. Kwakungekho lutho olungcolile ngalolu thando lobuzalwane. Kuphela ucansi olukhohlakele futhi ingqondo elahlekile ingaphendula lokhu kube yinto ephambene, ucansi, futhi engcolile.
Ukube uDavid ubeyisitabane, kwakungafanele yini ukuba uDavide abe nothando lukaJonathani olufana nolukaDavide ngabesifazane? Kepha lokho bekungenjalo. Uthando lukaDavide lobuzalwane ngoJonathani lwalungaphezu kwe (ucansi) uthando kubantu besifazane. Kwakungolunye uhlobo lothando, lokho kwakungasekelwe ezinkanukweni zobulili zenyama, (ubungqingili) imizwa, kanye nezifiso. Kwakuwuthando lobuzalwane olungenabugovu lomphefumulo
Ingabe uDavide noJonathani babeyizitabane?
Ngabe uJonathani ubengaba nendodana uma eyisitabane?
UJonathani waba nendodana, owayekhubazekile ekhubazekile; uMefibhosheti. Ngakho-ke singaphetha ngokuthi noJonathani wayenomfazi, ayesondelene naye.
UDavide wayenabesifazane abaningi
UDavide wayenabesifazane abaningi, njengokuthi i. Abigail, u-Ahinohama, UMakha, UHagith, Abital, Eglah (2 Samuweli 3:2-5), UMikhali (2 Samuweli 3:13-14), kanye noBhathisheba (2 Samuweli 5:13).
Ukube uDavid wayeyisitabane, do you think that he would have made any effort to get his wife Michal, Saul’s daughter, back? Would David have married Michal, Jonathan’s sister, and be intimate with her, if David would have had a sexual relationship with Jonathan?
Would David have feelings of lust for Bathsheba,
if David was gay?
If David was indeed gay, would he have had sexual feelings of lust for Bathsheba? Since he was physically attracted to her because he laid with her? When someone is gay, then the person has no sexual feelings of lust for someone of the opposite gender, but only for his own gender.
Therefore if David was a homosexual, David wouldn’t lust after Bathsheba. He only would have looked from his roof, but wouldn’t have done anything. Will the next statement and lie be, that David was a bi-sexual?
Ukube uDavid wayeyisitabane, uNkulunkulu wayengeke amjezise uDavide?
UNkulunkulu wamjezisa uDavide ngenxa yokuthi uDavide wayedelele izwi likaJehova futhi wenza okubi emehlweni akhe. UDavide wayesebulele u-Uriya, ngenkemba yabantwana bakwa-Amoni, futhi wayethathe umka-Uriya wamenza owakhe. Lokhu kuziphatha kwakuyisinengiso kuNkulunkulu futhi yingakho uNkulunkulu wathumela umprofethi uNathani kuDavide. UNathani wamelana noDavide ngento embi ayeyenzile.
Lapho uDavide waphenduka, isono sakhe zithethelelwe futhi uDavide akazange abulawe. Nokho, ngenxa yalokho uDavide ayekwenzile nangenxa yokuthi uDavide wayedelele uJehova, Indodana kaDavide yayizofa futhi inkemba yayingeke isuke endlini kaDavide. UJehova uzamvusela ububi uDavida endlini yakhe njalo uNkulunkulu wayezathatha abafazi bakaDavida phambi kwamehlo akhe abanikele umakhelwane wakhe.. Futhi yilokho kanye okwenzeka.
Uma uNkulunkulu amjezisa uDavide ngalesi senzo, uNkulunkulu wayengeke yini amjezise uDavide ukube uDavide wayenobuhlobo bobulili obufanayo noJonathani? Ingabe uNkulunkulu wayengeke agwebe uDavide ukufa ngokomthetho? Njengoba uNkulunkulu ecacile eZwini laKhe futhi wenza njengokuyala kwakhe. Kubhaliwe:
Ungalali nabantu, njengakubantu besifazane: kuyisinengiso (Ungqingwe 18:22)
Ningazingcolisi nganoma iyiphi yalezo zinto: ngokuba ngazo zonke lezi izizwe engizixoshile phambi kwenu zingcolisiwe: Futhi izwe lingcolile: ngalokho ngiyalihambela ububi balo, nezwe liyabahlanza abakhileyo kulo. Ngakho anogcina izimiso zami nezahlulelo zami, ningenzi nesisodwa salezi zinengiso; loba ngubani owesizwe sakini, noma yimuphi umfokazi ogogobeleyo phakathi kwenu: (Ngoba zonke lezi zinengiso abantu belizwe bayenzile, ababengaphambi kwakho, nezwe lingcolile;) Ukuthi izwe linganihlanzi nani, nxa lisingcolisa, njengoba yahlanza izizwe ezazingaphambi kwenu.
Ngokuba yilowo nalowo owenza noma iyiphi yalezi zinengiso, labo abazinikelayo bazaqunywa phakathi kwabantu bakibo. Ngakho anogcina isimiso sami, ukuze ningenzi nowodwa wale mikhuba enengekayo, okwenziwa phambi kwakho, futhi ukuze ningazingcolisi ngakho: nginguJehova uNkulunkulu wenu (Ungqingwe 18:24-30)
Uma indoda ilala nesintu, njengoba elala lowesifazana, bobabili benzile isinengiso: bayakubulawa nokubulawa; igazi labo liyakuba phezu kwabo (Ungqingwe 20:13)
Makungabikho sifebe emadodakazini akwa-Israyeli, noma isifebe sabantwana bakwa-Israyeli (Duteronomi 23:17)
Yenza uNkulunkulu, UJesu noMoya oNgcwele bayabuvuma ubungqingili?
Ubungqingili babuyisinengiso futhi namanje kuNkulunkulu. Uma kuyisinengiso kuNkulunkulu, futhi kuyisinengiso kuJesu Kristu nakuMoya oNgcwele. Ngoba uJesu uyiZwi, owaba yinyama. UJesu Kristu weza ukuzokwenza intando kaNkulunkulu futhi wanikela ngokuphila Kwakhe ngentando Yakhe.
Ngingakwazi ngokwami ngokwami ukwenza lutho: Njengoba ngizwa, Ngihlulele: Futhi ukwahlulela kwami kumane nje; ngoba angifuni intando yami, Kepha intando kababa ongithumileyo (UJohane 5:30)
Ngoba ngehle ezulwini, hhayi ukwenza intando Yami, kodwa intando yalowo oNgithumileyo (UJohane 6:38)
Ngikhuluma lokho engikubonile nobaba (UJohane 8:38)
Ukwemukelwa kobungqingili esontweni kuvela emqondweni olahliwe
Iqiniso, that we live in a New Covenant, doesn’t mean that Intando kaNkulunkulu has changed. God’s Word stands forever and will never change (Funda futhi: IZwi likaNkulunkulu limiswe phakade).
After the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit testified, through the apostles, that homosexuality and being gay is a sin. The acceptance of homosexuality derives from a reprobate mind, as we read in the first chapter of the Book of Romans. Since they had rejected God and His Word and didn’t believe and accept His truth, God had given them up to vile affections. And this is still happening today.
Ngenxa yalokho uNkulunkulu wabanikela ekuhuhekeni okuyichilo: ngoba nabesifazane babo baguqula ukwenza kwemvelo kwaba ngokuphambene nemvelo: kanjalo namadoda, ukushiya ukusetshenziswa kwemvelo kowesifazane, bavutha ekukhanukeleni kwabo omunye komunye; amadoda namadoda enza okuyichilo, bemukela phakathi kwabo umvuzo ofanele ukuduka kwabo. Futhi njengoba babengathandi ukugcina uNkulunkulu ekwazini kwabo, UNkulunkulu wabanikela emqondweni obolile, ukwenza lezo zinto ezingafanele (AmaRoma 1:26-28)
Lithi iZwi, that homosexuals will not inherit the Kingdom of God
Anazi ukuthi abangalungile abayikulidla ifa lombuso kaNkulunkulu? Ungakhohliswa: hhayi izifebe, Futhi abakhonza izithombe, noma iziphikiso, futhi noma ukufezekisa, noma abahlukumezi bakithi ngesintu, Namasela, noma ihaha, noma izidakwa, noma abaphikisi, noma ukuphaphama, Uyakulidla Ilifa Ngombuso KaNkulunkulu. Babenjalo abanye benu: kodwa seligezisiwe, Kepha ningcweliswa, kodwa lilungisisiwe ebizweni leNkosi uJesu, Ngomoya kaNkulunkulu wethu (1 AbaseKorinte 6:9-11)
The Word of God remains the truth
People can change, twist and interpret the Word from their carnal mind, out of their own knowledge, okutholakele, Imibono, imizwa, imizwelo, kanye nolwazi(s), ezivame ukugqugquzelwa imimoya emibi yobumnyama futhi zigunyaze ubungqingili. Nokho, akushintshi lutho ngeqiniso. Ngoba iqiniso linjalo, lokho kuNkulunkulu, uJesu, noMoya oNgcwele, ubutabane buyisinengiso futhi buyohlala buyisinengiso. Akukho futhi akekho ongakushintsha lokho.
UNkulunkulu, UJesu Kristu; iZwi, futhi uMoya oNgcwele awusoze wavuma ubungqingili ngoba abakwazi ukuhlanganyela nemisebenzi yobumnyama.; isono.
UJesu Kristu uye wabhekana nenkinga yesono, ukuze wonke umuntu, okholwa kuye, futhi iba azalwe kabusha futhi uyaMlandela, uzahlengwa ku imvelo yesono (Imvelo ka-Adam) futhi uzo abuse phezu kwenyama yakhe laphezu kwesono.
Ukube kwakumele uJesu eze emhlabeni azobhubhisa imisebenzi kadeveli, pho kungani manje uJesu kufanele avume imisebenzi kadeveli?
Ubungqingili buyisono futhi buhlala buyisono. A ikholwa elizelwe ngokusha lizakwehlukanisa imimoya, njalo kayikubhajwa yimimoya yobumnyama. Kunalokho, ikholwa elizelwe ngokusha liyobusa futhi ube nokubusa phezu kwamandla nemimoya yobumnyama, okuhlanganisa nomoya wenkanuko nokonakala.
Akumangalisi yini, ukuthi yonke imibhalo eseBhayibhelini ekhuluma ngobungqingili iyenqatshwa nokuthi ubudlelwano bokuhlonipha uNkulunkulu nobungcwele eBhayibhelini buphendukezelwa ebuhlotsheni bobulili.? Kungani kunjalo?
Ngoba baphuphuthekiswe ngenxa yeqiniso futhi abazimisele ukwamukela iqiniso. Ngoba iqiniso libhekana nabo ngokuziphatha kwabo; isono sabo futhi akukhona lokho abakufunayo. Abafuni bafe enyameni yabo, kodwa bafuna ukuqhubeka behamba ngokwenyama futhi bondle izinkanuko nezinkanuko zabo. Yingakho beshintsha futhi balungise iZwi likaNkulunkulu libe ngeyabo (ubungqingili) imizwa, izinkanuko, kanye nezifiso.
Kodwa iZwi liyohlala liyiqiniso futhi ekugcineni liyokwahlulela wonke umuntu ngokwemisebenzi yakhe (UJohane 12:48, 1 UPetru 4:5, IsAmbulo 20:12, 15). IZwi licacile futhi akukho-zaba, ngoba akekho!
‘Yibani usawoti womhlaba’
