Wonke umuntu, owayezazalwa enzalweni yomuntu, wayezozalwa futhi aphile ngesivumelwano ngokufa kanye nesivumelwano nesihogo. Kepha uJesu Kristu weza ezokwakha futhi abhubhise amanga kaDeveli nemisebenzi yobumnyama nokuphula isivumelwano phakathi kwendoda nokufa okuwile kanye nesivumelwano nesihogo. Lithini ibhayibheli ngesivumelwano nokufa kanye nesivumelwano nesihogo? Ungakhululwa kanjani esivumelwaneni ngokufa nangesihogo bese ungena esivumelwaneni saphakade noNkulunkulu futhi uzuze ifa lokuphila okuphakade?
UNkulunkulu wadala umuntu ngenkululeko yokuzikhethela
Manje ngakho-ke, Uma niyolalela izwi lami ngempela, futhi ugcine isivumelwano sami, Niyakuba yingcebo eyingqayizivele kimi ngaphezu kwabo bonke abantu: Ngoba wonke umhlaba ungowami: Niyakuba ngumbuso wabapristi, nesizwe esingcwele. Lawa ngamazwi owawakhuluma kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli. UMose weza wabiza abadala babantu, wabeka phambi kobuso babo onke lawo mazwi uJehova amyale ngakho. Futhi bonke abantu baphendula bendawonye, wathi, Konke uJehova akukhulumile ukuthi sizokwenza. UMose walibuyisela amazwi abantu eNkosini (Eksodusi 19:5-8)
UNkulunkulu wayekhethe abantu abayedwa phakathi kwabo bonke abantu emhlabeni futhi wenza abantu bakhe, okungukuthi izingane, abazalwa benzalo kaJakobe; Israyeli.
Lo kwakungumusa kaNkulunkulu nelungelo.
Njengoba abantwana bakwa-Israyeli bekuwukuphela kwabantu phakathi kwabo bonke abantu emhlabeni, Obani abakhethwe uNkulunkulu babeka eceleni.
Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli babesesivumelwaneni noNkulunkulu, okwabonakala nge- ukusoka Enyameni nasendleleni yabo yokuphila.
Ngoba njengoba uNkulunkulu engcwele futhi elungile, Abantu bakhe, okwakungokwakhe, kwadingeka futhi ahambe angcwele futhi alungile.
Abantu bakaNkulunkulu bahamba bangcwele futhi balungile uma nje belalela amazwi kaNkulunkulu futhi bagcina umthetho kaMose ngayo yonke imiyalo yawo, imiyalelo, (-sattshelelwe umhlatshelo, ukudla) imithetho, amasiko, nemikhosi.
Nokho, Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli bebengakuboni njalo njengelungelo. Babengajabuli njalo ngoNkulunkulu wabo, Njengoba imvelo kaDeveli eyabusa enyameni yayo enesono, walwela uNkulunkulu nentando yakhe.
Abantu bakaNkulunkulu babenokukhetha ukulalela noma ukungalaleli amazwi kaNkulunkulu
Abantu babenokukhetha ukulalela noma ukungalaleli amazwi kaNkulunkulu. Babengayenqaba amazwi kaNkulunkulu banikeze intando, izinkanuko, kanye nezifiso zenyama enesono futhi zenze izinto, Lokho kwakuyisinengiso kuNkulunkulu, okwambulwa uNkulunkulu ngeZwi lakhe naseMiyalweni Yakhe, futhi uthele izithelo zesono, okuholela ekufeni. Noma bebengalalela amazwi kaNkulunkulu futhi abanikeli intando, izinkanuko, nezifiso zenyama futhi uthele izithelo zokulunga, okuholela empilweni. Abantu babethole la mandla avela kuNkulunkulu kusukela ekuqaleni kwendalo.
UNkulunkulu wadala ubuntu ngentando yamahhala futhi wabanika amandla okwenza lokho ababefuna ukukwenza, Ngisho nangemva kokuwa komuntu.
Ababusi bakaZimu benza isivumelwano nokufa kanye nesivumelwano nesihogo
Kungani yizwa izwi leNkosi, nina bantu, Lokho kubusa laba bantu abaseJerusalema. Ngoba nishilo, Senze isivumelwano ngokufa, futhi ngesihogo sivumelana; Lapho isishayo esichichima sidlula, ngeke eze kithi: Ngoba senze amanga isiphephelo sethu, futhi ngaphansi kwamanga sifihle ngokwethu: Ngalokho usho kanje iNkosi uNkulunkulu, Bheka, Ngilele eSiyoni ngeSisekelo Itshe, Itshe elithile, itshe eliyigugu ekhoneni, Isisekelo Esiqinisekile: Lowo Okholwa Akayikushesha.
Isahlulelo futhi ngizolala emgqeni, nokulunga ku-plummet: Isichotho siyakukhukhula isiphephelo samanga, Amanzi ayakuchichima indawo yokucasha. Isivumelwano sakho ngokufa siyakusolakala, nesivumelwano sakho nesihogo ngeke sime; Lapho isishayo esichichima sidlula, khona-ke niyakunyathelwa phansi yiyo. Kusukela ngesikhathi kuye kuzokuthatha: Ekuseni ekuseni kakhulu kuzodlula, Ngosuku nasebusuku: futhi kuzoba ukukhathazeka kuphela ukuqonda lo mbiko (Isaya 28:14-19)
Kuyadabukisa kakhulu ukufunda, Babusi bakaNkulunkulu kanjani eJerusalema eJerusalema, Obani ababenelungelo elinjalo, angikholwanga amazwi kaNkulunkulu. Bamlahla uNkulunkulu wabo futhi bamthuka, Ngokwenza isivumelwano nokufa kanye nesivumelwano nesihogo.
Bacabanga ukuthi baphephile, Lapho isishayo esichichimayo (isahlulelo) kuzodlula, Ngokwenza amanga abe yisiphephelo sabo futhi acashe ngaphansi kwamanga.
Isiprofetho esiphathelene nokuza kukaJesu Kristu, itshe eliyigugu
Kepha uNkulunkulu waprofeta ngokuza kukaJesu Kristu, INdodana KaNkulunkulu Ophilayo, Ungubani indlela, iqiniso, kanye nempilo futhi kungaba yitshe legumbi eliyigugu, Hhayi abantwana bakwa-Israyeli kuphela kodwa kubo bonke abantu, ongowokuzizukulwane ze-fallen man futhi aphile ngesivumelwano ngokufa kanye nesivumelwano nesihogo, okubonakala ngokungalaleli kwabo uNkulunkulu nezono zabo nobubi babo.
Ngakho-ke uJesu weza emhlabeni futhi wamelwa, shunyayeza, waletha umbuso kaNkulunkulu kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli.
UJesu wadalula amanga namanga abaholi, owayenze isivumelwano ngokufa kanye nesivumelwano nesihogo. Wembula futhi wabhubhisa imisebenzi yobumnyama futhi wabiza abantu ukuba baphenduke, futhi waqeda umsebenzi wakhe ophelele wokuhlengwa ngenxa yesintu ewile. (Funda futhi: Ithini incazelo yeqiniso yesiphambano?, Uyini umehluko phakathi kukaJesu nabaholi benkolo? futhi Ikuphi ukufana phakathi kwabaholi babantu bakaNkulunkulu bangaleso sikhathi namanje?).
UJesu wasiphule isivumelwano ngokufa kanye nesivumelwano nesihogo
I, INkosi ikubize ngokulunga, futhi uzobamba isandla sakho, futhi uzokugcina, futhi ngikunikeze isivumelwano sabantu, Ukukhanya kwabezizwe; Ukuvula amehlo angaboni, Ukukhipha iziboshwa ejele, kanye nabo abahlala ebumnyameni ngaphandle kwendlu yejele (Isaya 42:6-7)
Lapho ngimbona, Ngawa ezinyaweni zakhe ngifile. Wabeka isandla sakhe sokunene phezu kwami, bethi kimi, Ungesabi; Ngingowokuqala nowokugcina: Yimi lowo ophilayo, futhi wayefile; futhi, bheka, Ngiyaphila kuze kube phakade, Amen; futhi ube nezinkinobho zesihogo nezokufa (IsAmbulo 1:17-18)
UJesu weza ezohlinzeka ngendlela yokuphuma, kubo bonke labo, Ngubani owayengowesizukulwane se-willn man futhi aphile ngesivumelwano ngokufa kanye nesivumelwano nesihogo ebumnyameni.
UJesu weza kwalabo, abahamba ebumnyameni emangeni kaDeveli futhi babeka ithemba labo kulawa amanga, futhi uzifihle ngaphansi kwamanga, futhi ngenxa yalokho, yenza imisebenzi yenyama futhi uthele izithelo zokufa, okuyisono.
UZimu wanikela ngenxa yesintu ngenxa yesintu amandla okuhlenga emandleni obumnyama ngeNdodana yakhe uJesu Kristu (Oh. UJohane 3:16-21, AbaseKolose 1:12-14).
UJesu wabambela umuntu owile futhi wathatha indawo yendoda ewile esiphambanweni.
UJesu wenziwa isono wangena ekufeni wangena esihogweni, ukwephula isivumelwano phakathi komuntu owile nokufa kanye nesivumelwano phakathi komuntu owile nesihogo (A.O U-ISAYA 28:14-19, IzEnzo 2:31, Kwabase-Efesu 4:8-9, AbaseKolose 1:12-14, 1 UPetru 3:19, IsAmbulo 1:18).
Bonke labo, abakholelwa kuJesu Kristu nomsebenzi wakhe wokuhlenga futhi balalele amazwi akhe futhi bazalwa kabusha kuKristu futhi bakhe ukholo lwabo phezu kwakhe, ngeke abe namahloni.
Isivumelwano ngokufa kanye nesivumelwano esinesihogo singaphulwa kuphela ngokuzalwa kabusha kuKristu
Bayashesha kwabafileyo kuKristu futhi baphile ngoJesu; iZwi eliphilayo, Ngubani ohlezi ezindaweni zasezulwini ngenhla kwakho konke ukuholwa ngokuyinhloko, amandla, kanye nobukhosi. Baphila eqinisweni leZwi likaNkulunkulu futhi baye benza iqiniso likaNkulunkulu libe yisiphephelo nokucasha kwabo, lapho besindiswa khona kuye futhi baphila ngaphansi kokuvikelwa nguNkulunkulu. (Funda futhi: Ngabe uphila emthunzini oPhezukonke noma emthunzini wokufa?).
Ukuzalwa kabusha kuKristu kuyisidingo sokukhululwa esivumelwaneni ngokufa kanye nesivumelwano nesihogo.
Isivumelwano ngokufa kanye nesivumelwano esinesihogo esenyameni singaphulwa kuphela ngokufa kwenyama kuKristu.
Wonke umuntu, okholwa kuJesu Kristu futhi ubhapathiziwe kusosindiswe
Wonke umuntu, okholelwa kuJesu Kristu, iNdodana kaNkulunkulu, futhi inquma ukumlandela, kufanele kube abhapathizwe. Lokhu akuyona ukukhetha, Lokhu kungumyalo kaJesu Kristu.
Ukuzalwa kabusha, Ukuvuselelwa kwendoda ewile, kumele kwenzeke emhlabeni. Akunakwenzeka ukuhlala esimweni sakho esidala njengesoni esivumelwaneni esisha esimweni esisha njengosanta.
Ngeshwa, Abantu abaningi bacabanga ukuthi kungenzeka. Ngakho-ke bazama ukuhlala esimweni sabo esidala (I-Fallen State) Njengendalo entsha. Ngenxa yalokho abaningi bahamba ngemuva kwenyama emcibizweni, bacabanga ukuthi bahamba belandela uMoya. (Funda futhi: Ingabe kufanele uzalwe ngokusha ukuze uhambe ngamandla angaphezu kwawemvelo?).
Ngenxa yalokho, Sibona iSonto LaseLakewarm kanye nokunganakwa esonweni eliholele eVangelini eliyekethiswe yi-Works yenyama futhi libekezelela isono esontweni.
Sibona ukwanda kwemindeni ephazamisekile, ukuvukela, ukuziqhenya, ukungcola kobulili, ahlukanisa, neminye imisebenzi yenyama.
Kepha ukuhamba ngemuva komoya kusho ukuzithoba kuNkulunkulu nangeZwi lakhe nangokulalela amazwi kaJesu nokugcina imiyalo kaJesu, lapho uhamba khona ngokholo entandweni kaNkulunkulu futhi wenze imisebenzi elungile (Funda futhi: Kuthiwani ngomusa nemisebenzi?).
Uma ubhapathizwa kuKristu, Ubeke UKristu
Ngoba ninabo bonke abantwana bakaNkulunkulu ngokukholwa kuKristu Jesu. Ngoba abaningi bakho njengoba ubhapathizwe kuKristu ngibeke kuKristu (KwabaseGalathiya 3:26-27)
Ngobhapathizo, uziveza ngokufa nokuvuka (kusuka kwabafileyo) kaJesu Kristu. Inyama yakho iyafa kuye, lapho uhlengiwe khona emandleni obumnyama, nesivumelwano ngokufa kanye nesivumelwano sesihogo sephukile. Kusukela zonke izivumelwano nazo zonke izivumelwano nokuzinikela kuphela ngokufa (Funda futhi: Kusho ukuthini ukubhapathizwa?)
Ngakho-ke, Uma inyama yakho ifa kuKristu, isivumelwano phakathi kwakho nokufa kanye nesivumelwano phakathi kwakho nesihogo siyaphela, kanye Umthetho wesono nokufa, obusa enyameni, iphelela.
Hhayi kuze inyama yakho ifa, umoya wakho, Ngubani ongaphansi kwegunya lokufa, kungavuswa kwabafileyo.
Futhi njengoba uJesu Kristu wavuka kwabafileyo, Umoya wakho uzovuswa nabafileyo. Ngokuvuka komoya wakho kwabafileyo, Uphenduke uyindalo entsha futhi uphile ngoMoya esivumelwaneni esisha, isivumelwano saphakade, okubekwa uphawu ngegazi likaJesu, lapho umthetho womoya wokuphila kuKristu Jesu ubusa. (Funda futhi: Usuku lwesishiyagalombili, Usuku lwesivumelwano esisha).
Indoda entsha ihamba esivumelwaneni esisha
Manje uNkulunkulu Wokuthula, Lokho kwaletha futhi kwabafileyo iNkosi yethu uJesu, lowomalusi omkhulu wezimvu, ngegazi lesivumelwano esiphakade, Kukwenze ube uphelele kuwo wonke umsebenzi omuhle ukwenza intando yakhe, Ukusebenza kuwe okuphambuka emehlweni akhe, ngoJesu Kristu; Uzoba ngubani inkazimulo kuze kube phakade naphakade. Amen (amaHebheru 13:20-21)
Indoda entsha ingokomoya futhi inemvelo entsha; Imvelo kaNkulunkulu. Indoda entsha ihamba kule ndalo entsha ngemuva komoya wokulalela uNkulunkulu neZwi lakhe futhi ibeke imikhuba yakudala futhi isebenza ngoMoya (Oh. AmaRoma 8:1-13; 13:12-14, KwabaseGalathiya 5:16-26, Kwabase-Efesu 4:20-32, AbaseKolose 3 (Funda futhi: Limkhumule kanjani ikhehla? nokuthi kanjani gqoka umuntu omusha?)).
Le ndoda entsha ikholelwa kuNkulunkulu futhi ilalele uNkulunkulu neZwi laKhe. Umuntu omusha akayena owademoni futhi ngeke esamlalela futhi akholelwe amanga akhe futhi enze imisebenzi yobumnyama. Kepha le ndoda entsha iyakudalula, yabhubhisa amanga kaDeveli nemisebenzi yobumnyama ngeqiniso leZwi likaNkulunkulu.
Indoda entsha ngeke isathembela kumazwi omhlaba, amanga amanga, futhi ngeke besasenzi amanga omhlaba isiphephelo sakhe nokucasha kwakhe.
Kunalokho, Indoda entsha iyakukholwa amazwi kaNkulunkulu futhi yakhele impilo yakhe kuJesu Kristu, iZwi eliphilayo, kanye netshe legumbi eliyigugu. Futhi uNkulunkulu uzakuba yisiphephelo sakhe nendawo yokucasha. (Funda futhi: Ingabe uJesu uyitshe legumbi eliyigugu noma itshe lokukhubeka?).
Ungangeni esivumelwaneni ngokufa kanye nesivumelwano nesihogo!
Kepha yize uJesu afeze lo msebenzi omkhulu wokuhlenga ubuntu, Sibona futhi kulo nyaka, lokho njengasesivumelwaneni esidala, AmaKristu amaningi, abanambise impilo entsha esivumelwaneni esisha, Buyela enyameni kanye nemimoya empofu yezwe nokungamthelela uNkulunkulu kanye nezimpilo zabo, Faka isivumelwano ngokufa kanye nesivumelwano nesihogo futhi.
‘Yibani usawoti womhlaba’
