AmaKristu kufanele azi futhi aqaphele ukuthi uNkulunkulu wanikeza izwi lakhe ngenxa yothando. Ngoba amaKhristu amaningi awabheki amagama nemiyalo kaNkulunkulu njengothando, Kepha njengomthwalo osindayo, Umthetho kanye nobugqila. Nakuba amazwi kaNkulunkulu eveza okuphambene futhi esikhundleni sokufa aveze ukuphila. Kodwa ngenxa yokuthi abantu abaningi abazalwa ngokusha futhi abangokomoya ngakho basengabantu benyama, abaphuphuthekiswe unkulunkulu walelizwe namanga abahlala kuwo, abakwazi ukuhlukanisa izinto zasemhlabeni womoya.
UNkulunkulu wanikeza iZwi laKhe ngothando kumuntu
INkosi uNkulunkulu yamthatha umuntu, wambeka ensimini yase-Edene ukuba ayilime, ayigcine. UJehova uNkulunkulu wamyala umuntu, ethi, Kuyo yonke imithi yensimu ungadla ngokuthanda kwakho: Kodwa emthini wolwazi lokuhle nokubi, ungadli kuwo: ngoba mhla usidla uyakufa isibili (Genesis 2:15-17)
UNkulunkulu wanika u-Adamu iZwi laKhe; indoda, owadalwa ngokuphelele ngomfanekiso kaNkulunkulu, wathi, ukuthi umuntu wayengadla kuyo yonke imithi yasensimini yase-Edene, ngaphandle kwesihlahla sokwazi okuhle lokubi.
Umuntu walalela umyalo kaNkulunkulu, UMdali wakhe, kwaze kwafika usathane egqoke inyoka wasondela kumuntu walinga umuntu ngamazwi akhe akhohlisayo..
Esikhundleni sokukholwa nokulalela uNkulunkulu namazwi Akhe, umuntu wakhetha ukukholwa nokulalela amazwi kadeveli.
Futhi siyawubona umphumela wokukholwa emazwini kasathane nokuthi kwenzekani uma ubeka ithemba lakho kudeveli, Indalo. Ngoba ukukholwa emazwini kadeveli kubangela ukwehlukana noNkulunkulu futhi kubangela ukufa nokubhujiswa
Ngokulalela amazwi kadeveli, umuntu wazinikela kudeveli futhi wawa esikhundleni sakhe futhi umoya womuntu wafa. Udeveli wathatha indawo yomuntu futhi waba umbusi womhlaba noyise nombusi womuntu owile. Umuntu owile waba indodana kadeveli, ngoba wonke umuntu, onoSathane njengoyise, ukholelwa emazwini kadeveli futhi wenza lokho akushoyo. (Funda futhi: ‘Imiyalo kaNkulunkulu nemiyalo kadeveli‘)
UNkulunkulu wanikeza umthetho waKhe ngothando kubantu baKhe
Sothini-ke? Umthetho uyisono? UNkulunkulu makakwenqabele. Cha, Ngangingasazi isono, kodwa ngomthetho: ngoba inkanuko bengingayazi, ngaphandle kokuthi umthetho wawushilo, Ungafisi. Kodwa isono, ethatha ithuba ngomlayo, yenza kimi yonke inkanuko. Ngokuba ngaphandle komthetho isono sasifile. Ngokuba ngake ngaphila ngaphandle komthetho: kodwa kwathi sekufike umlayo, isono savuka, futhi ngafa. Nomyalo, eyayimiselwe ukuphila, ngathola ukuthi ngiyakufa. Ngesono, ethatha ithuba ngomlayo, ungikhohlisile, langibulala ngalo. Ngakho-ke umthetho ungcwele, lomlayo ungcwele, futhi nje, futhi kuhle (AmaRoma 7:7-12)
UNkulunkulu wayebafunela okuhle abantu Bakhe futhi avikele abantu Bakhe futhi wayengafuni ukuba kwenzeke okubi kubantu baKhe. Ngakho-ke uNkulunkulu wanikeza umthetho waKhe ngothando, naphezu kweqiniso lokuthi akubona bonke ababebheka ukunikezwa komthetho njengesenzo sothando, kodwa njengesibopho nobugqila.
Ngenxa yalokho, abaningi bendlu yakwa-Israyeli bahlubuka emthethweni futhi benqaba ukuzithoba kuNkulunkulu, ngokulalela amazwi nemiyalo Yakhe, futhi benza lokho abafuna ukukwenza futhi bacabanga ukuthi yini elungile.
Kodwa ukuhlubuka kwabo nokungalaleli kwabo uNkulunkulu neZwi laKhe akuzange kulethe inkululeko, ukuthula, nokuphila, njengoba bebelindele, kodwa ubugqila, ukuyaluza, isijeziso, nokufa.
Abantu bakaNkulunkulu baze bamelana nabaprofethi bakaNkulunkulu, ababemiswe uNkulunkulu futhi bakhuluma amazwi Akhe. Kusukela emazwini kaNkulunkulu, okwakhulunywa ngemilomo yabaprofethi, zazingekho ngokuvumelana nokulindela kanye nentando yomuntu, lapho abantu bakaNkulunkulu bahlubuka futhi benqaba ukulalela amazwi abaprofethi. Abazange bacabangele amazwi abaprofethi njengothando lukaNkulunkulu nokuthi amazwi Akhe ayezoletha ukuthula nokuphila. Ngakho-ke, abaprofethi abaningi bathuliswa, ngokubathumba abaprofethi, abavalele etilongweni, futhi ngisho nangokubulala abaprofethi
UZimu wanikela ngezwi lakhe ngenxa yothando
IZwi likaNkulunkulu alikashintshi futhi lisakhiqiza ukuphila nokuthula, kulabo abakholwa kuJesu Kristu, iZwi Eliphilayo, Owathunyelwa uNkulunkulu ngothando emhlabeni ukuze asindise isintu ekubhujisweni. UNkulunkulu unikeze iZwi laKhe ngothando nalabo abakholelwa eZwini futhi balalele iZwi futhi benze lokho iZwi elikushoyo, bayophila enkululekweni yangempela futhi bathole ukuthula kukaNkulunkulu ezimpilweni zabo.
Imiyalo kaNkulunkulu, okuyimiyalo futhi kaJesu, akuwona umthwalo osindayo kulabo, abazelwe ngokusha kuKristu futhi baba isidalwa esisha.
Imithetho kaNkulunkulu iwumthwalo onzima kumuntu omdala, ongowenyama njalo ohamba ngokwenyama, ngoba isimo sesono siyabusa enyameni.
Kufana nje nezingane, abangenalwazi futhi abangenakho ukuqonda ngakho-ke abangaqondi futhi bangayiqondi imithetho yabazali babo, kodwa bheka imithetho yabo njengesijeziso nobugqila. Nakuba abazali bezithanda izingane zabo futhi befuna ukuvikela nokugcina izingane zabo ebubini. Abafuni kwenzeke okubi kubantwana babo. Kuphela lapho umntwana esekhule ngempela futhi eba umuntu omdala ingane iyoqonda abazali bayo futhi ibone ukuthi imithetho etholakala othandweni futhi yanikezwa ngothando nokuthi imithetho yayingemibi futhi yayingahloselwe isijeziso futhi ayizange iholele ebugqilini., kodwa wamvikela umntwana futhi wamvikela ebubini.
Kuyafana nangoNkulunkulu. Uma nje umuntu omdala wenyama ebusa futhi ikholwa lihlala liyingane, umntwana uyobheka amazwi nemiyalelo kaNkulunkulu kanye namazwi namazwi nemiyalo kaJesu njengomthwalo osindayo, isijeziso, umthetho, kanye nobugqila, esikhundleni sokwazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu unikeze iZwi laKhe ngothando ukuvikela umuntu nokugcina umuntu ebubini nasekubhujisweni nasekufeni, ngamanye amazwi, ukusindisa isintu futhi basigcine besindisiwe.
Abathanda uJesu; iZwi liyogcina amazwi Akhe futhi lihambe othandweni
UJesu waphendula wathi kuye, Uma umuntu engithanda Mina, uzogcina amazwi Ami: futhi uBaba Wami uyomthanda, futhi Sizofika kuye, bese wenza ukuhlala naye naye. Ongangithandiyo akagcini amazwi aMi: nezwi enilizwayo akusilo elami, kodwa uBaba oNgithumileyo (UJohane 14:23-24)
Labo, abazelwe kabusha kuKristu babeka phansi inyama yabo, futhi nithande uBaba futhi nibe ngabaKhe, uzolalela amazwi Akhe futhi enze imiyalelo Yakhe futhi aphile ngokwentando kaNkulunkulu.
Bakholelwa kuJesu Kristu; iZwi futhi uMthande noNkulunkulu uBaba, futhi wazi uBaba ngeZwi futhi ujwayelene nothando Lwakhe. Ngakho-ke bayazi, ukuthi uNkulunkulu unomqondo omuhle kakhulu ngomuntu nokuthi amazwi nemiyalo Yakhe ingumoya futhi inokuphila futhi isindisa abantu futhi ibagcine ibaholela ekuphileni okuphakade..
Bakholelwa emazwini kaNkulunkulu futhi basebenzise amazwi Akhe futhi bahambe eZwini, lapho ngokuhamba kwabo nokulalela amazwi kaNkulunkulu, babonisa uNkulunkulu uthando lwabo futhi bahambe othandweni.
IZwi liletha ukuphila
Futhi uma umuntu ezwa amazwi aMi, futhi ningakholwa, Angimahluleli: ngoba kangizanga ukuthi ngahlulele umhlaba, kodwa ukusindisa umhlaba. Ongalayo Mina, futhi akawemukeli amazwi Ami, unomahlulelayo: izwi engilikhulumile, nguyena oyakumahlulela ngosuku lokugcina. Ngokuba angikhulumanga ngokwami; kodwa uBaba ongithumileyo, Wanginika umyalo, okufanele ngikusho, nalokho okufanele ngikukhulume. Futhi ngiyazi ukuthi umyalo wakhe ungukuphila okuphakade: ngakho-ke lokhu engikukhulumayo, njengalokhu uBaba asho kimi, ngakho ngiyakhuluma (UJohane 12:47-50)
IZwi lahlulela inyama futhi lilahla imisebenzi yenyama, kodwa iZwi liveza ukuphila kumuntu omusha, osephenduke umoya.
Udeveli ufuna ukugcina wonke umuntu engenalwazi futhi abadukise ngamanga akhe futhi enze abantu bakholwe ukuthi iZwi likaNkulunkulu liwumthwalo osindayo futhi liyisidala futhi lingokomthetho., futhi kuholela ebugqilini futhi kuvimbele abantu ukuba baphile ngokukhululeka.
Kodwa iZwi likaNkulunkulu aliwona umthwalo osindayo futhi liletha insindiso nenkululeko yeqiniso esikhundleni sokugqilazwa futhi linikeza ukuphila esikhundleni sokufa futhi liholela ekuphileni okuphakade..
Ngokungafani namazwi kadeveli aholela ebugqilini, isibhicongo, nokufa.
‘Yibani usawoti womhlaba’
