Ngeke usakwazi ukuya esontweni noma ubukele ithelevishini yobuKristu ngaphandle kokuhlangana nabashumayeli bekhuluma ngemali. Eyodwa… singamane sithi, ecela imali. Amasonto amaningi asebenzise izindlela zezinhlangano ezisiza abampofu ukuze aqongelele imali. Njengezinhlangano zezwe ezisiza abantulayo, bangena emizweni yozwelo nobumbano. Bayazi, ukuthi uma udonsa imizwa nemizwa yabantu, abantu ngokuvamile bazimisele kakhulu ukupha. Nokho, amaKristu amaningi acasulwa yilesi siko lokucela imali esontweni futhi awasafuni ukuya esontweni. Abanye bazoze baphume esontweni bahambe. Konke lokhu kungenxa yalokhu kuziphatha kokuncenga kwenyama ibandla elikukopishele emhlabeni futhi lenza ubuKrestu. Lithini iBhayibheli ngemali? Lithini iBhayibheli ngokukhipha okweshumi nokunikela?
Isiko lokucela imali esontweni
Isonto nesonto, kuwumkhuba ofanayo. Uma sekuyisikhathi samabhakede, umdala noma umfundisi uxoxa ngendaba evusa amadlingozi ngokuntuleka kwebandla nokuthi yini abangayenza uma bethola imali. Noma babelana ngendaba ekhuthazayo yesimangaliso sezimali ngemuva kokuthi bona noma omunye umuntu enikele ngemali.
Ngale ndlela, benza ukukhanga okungokomzwelo futhi badlale ngezinzwa nemizwa yabalalele ebandleni, abathintwa yindaba futhi abazimisele kakhulu futhi bagqugquzeleke ukunikeza.
Futhi ingabe uyazi ukuthi yini into embi kakhulu?? Abanye baze bashumayele besepulpiti, ukuthi kumele ukhiphe imali ukuze uthole ukuphulukiswa. Bathi uma uhlwanyela imali, uzovuna ukuphulukiswa. Manje kungenzeka kanjani lokho? Okuwukuphela kwendlela yokuphulukiswa ngemivimbo kaJesu Kristu.
Noma yini oyihlwanyelayo uyovuna. Uma uhlwanyela imali, uzovuna imali. Uma ufuna ukuba nesihlahla samahhabhula ukuze uvune ama-apula, wafaka imbewu yomuthi wamaberry emhlabathini, ngeke uthole isihlahla sama-apula esinama-apula kodwa isihlahla sikamalibhele.
Emhlabeni, ungacishe uthenge yonke into ngemali, kodwa embusweni kaNkulunkulu, akusebenzi ngaleyo ndlela.
Amakholwa amaningi, abangakazalwa ngokusha noma abaseyizingane zomoya, bavame ukukholelwa lamanga futhi banikeze imali ukuze bathole izibusiso zenyama, njengokuphulukisa, Umlingani, umsebenzi, indlu, njalo njalo.
Amakholwa asetshenziswa ukupha. Ngisho nalapho uthola i-imeyili evela esontweni futhi uvule i-imeyili, iqala ngazo zonke izinhlobo zezithembiso ezimangalisayo ezivela eBhayibhelini; IZwi LikaNkulunkulu, kodwa uma upheqa phansi, isizathu sangempela sokuthumela i-imeyili siveziwe, ngoba abakufunayo yimali yakho kuphela.
Kungani kumele abashumayeli bacele imali?
Kodwa kungani abashumayeli bahlale becela imali? Sikhonza uNkulunkulu uSomandla. UNkulunkulu mkhulu kakhulu, ukuthi Angakwazi ukunyakazisa izinhliziyo zabantu ngokuphazima kweso. Kungani laba bashumayeli bethathe indima kaNkulunkulu? Uma bekholelwa emandleni abo futhi besebenzisa izindlela zomhlaba, UNkulunkulu uzozihoxisa Yena.
Kungani benganciki nje kuNkulunkulu esikhundleni sokuncika kubantu? Kungani bengakholelwa eZwini njengoba kulotshiwe ukuthi uNkulunkulu ukhona UJehova uthukuthele; UnguMondli wethu?
Balokhu becela njalo becela imali, kuyilapho beshumayela ukuthi kufanele uthembele kuNkulunkulu futhi ukholwe uNkulunkulu ukuze uthole izibusiso. Lokhu kuziphatha kubonisa ukuthi abakholelwa kuNkulunkulu futhi abakholelwa okulotshwe eBhayibhelini futhi abawasebenzisi amazwi abo ekuphileni kwabo.. Abakwenzi abakushumayelayo.
Abashumayeli kufanele baqale ukwenza ngokuvumelana namazwi abo benze lokho abakushumayelayo bayeke ukucela imali. Kufanele bayeke ukusebenzisa ivangeli kanye nezibusiso zomoya kaNkulunkulu, yokuqoqa imali.
Kodwa kuthiwani ngamaKristu? AmaKristu enzani ngemali yawo? Ngoba womabili amaqembu esontweni; abaholi bebandla kanye namalungu ebandla, ube nobunzima bokwethemba uNkulunkulu nokuncika Kuye.
Zombili izinhlangothi zilahlekelwe ukholo lwazo kuNkulunkulu futhi azikholelwa ngempela ukuthi uNkulunkulu uzozihlinzeka ngezidingo zazo.
AmaKristu amaningi aye athanda imali
Nakuba iBhayibheli lithi, ukuthi uNkulunkulu uzokunikeza izidingo zakho nokuthi ungakhathazeki, ngoba uNkulunkulu unguMenzi wakho, kunobumpofu obuningi phakathi kwamaKristu. AmaKristu amaningi ayantula futhi ayahlupheka. Ngobani? Ngoba amaKristu amaningi awafuni ukulalela uNkulunkulu, ingasaphathwa eyokulalela uNkulunkulu. Abafuni ukwenza lokho uNkulunkulu abatshela ukuba bakwenze ngeZwi noma ngezinhliziyo zabo.
Lapho uNkulunkulu ekhuluma nezinhliziyo zamaKristu ukuba anikele, abamlaleli. Baqala babheke ezabo izimo. Babheka izidingo zabo nazo zonke izinto abangazenza ngaleyo mali.
Abanye abakwazi ukuziphilisa ngakho abanikeli iNkosi. Kafushane, kunezizathu eziningi ezenza amaKristu angazimisele ukupha.
Abanciki kuNkulunkulu futhi abamniki uNkulunkulu okungokwakhe futhi bambonge, kodwa bayahaha futhi bantshontshela uNkulunkulu.
Bavumela ukuhaha nothando lwemali kubuse ezinhliziyweni zabo, okuyisithelo somuntu omdala hhayi esomuntu omusha (Funda futhi: Beka indoda endala futhi gqoka umuntu omusha)
Nakuba bethi, ukuthi abahaha futhi ababathandi bemali, izenzo zabo zifakazela okuhlukile.
Bathembela kakhulu emalini yabo nasezibikezelweni zezomnotho zaleli zwe kunokuba bathembele kuNkulunkulu uSomandla futhi bakholelwe futhi benze lokho uNkulunkulu akushoyo eZwini Lakhe..
Abasamnikezi uNkulunkulu, kodwa bazigcinele imali bese beyisebenzisa (izinto ze) Umhlaba. Futhi ngaphandle kokwazi, bakha umbuso kasathane.
Amasonto ayavala, ngoba amaKristu agcina izikhwama zawo zivaliwe
Amasonto amaningi akuthola kunzima ukukhokha imali yezindlu, izikweletu, kanye nemali efunekayo, ngoba amaKristu agcina izikhwama zawo zivaliwe. Ngenxa yokuthi amaKrestu agcina izikhwama zawo zivaliwe, amasonto amaningi ayavalwa. Izakhiwo zesonto ziyathengwa futhi zisetshenziswe njengezindawo zokudlela, amahhotela, amakilabhu, njalo njalo. Futhi yilokho kanye udeveli akufunayo; avale amabandla kanye nawo embusweni wakhe (Funda futhi: Ukuthi ubumnyama bacisha kanjani ukukhanya).
AmaKristu angathandazela ukuba khona kwesakhiwo sesonto lawo, kodwa uma benganikezi imali, imithandazo yabo iyize.
NgamaSonto, AmaKristu acula ngenhliziyo yonke; “malini, malini, vula amasango ezikhukhula zezulu”. Kodwa uNkulunkulu usitshelani eBhayibhelini mayelana namasango ezikhukhula?
buyela kimi, futhi ngizobuyela kini, usho uJehova Sebawoti. Kodwa nithi, Siyakubuya ngakuphi? Ingabe umuntu uzophanga uNkulunkulu? Nokho ningiphanga. Kodwa nithi, Sikuphanga ngakuphi? Kweshumi neminikelo. Niqalekisiwe ngesiqalekiso: ngoba ningiphanga, ngisho lesi sizwe sonke.
Lethani konke okweshumi endlini yengcebo, ukuze kube khona ukudla endlini Yami, futhi ningifakazele manje ngalokhu, usho uJehova Sebawoti, uma ngingakuvuleli amafasitele asezulwini, futhi nginithululele isibusiso, ukuthi ngeke kube khona indawo eyanele ukuyithola. Futhi ngizokhuza umshwabathi ngenxa yenu, futhi ngeke achithe izithelo zomhlabathi wenu; nomvini wenu awuyikuvuthulula izithelo zawo ngaphambi kwesikhathi ensimini, usho uJehova Sebawoti. Futhi zonke izizwe ziyakuthi nibusisiwe: ngokuba niyakuba yizwe elithokozisayo, usho uJehova Sebawoti (UMalaki 3:7-12)
Ngaphambi kokuba khona komthetho, U-Abrahama wakhipha okweshumi
Mhlawumbe uyacabanga: “Hhayi-ke, Ngempela uNkulunkulu wakusho lokho, kodwa lokho kungumyalo womthetho ngaphansi kweSivumelwano Esidala nathi (AmaKristu) abasaphili ngaphansi komthetho, kodwa siphila ngaphansi kweSivumelwano Esisha”.
Uqinisile kancane. Ngoba yebo, UNkulunkulu wakhuluma la mazwi eSivumelwaneni Esidala. Kodwa ungakafiki umthetho, sifunda eNcwadini kaGenesise, ukuthi uKayini no-Abela banikela kuNkulunkulu umnikelo wamazibulo abo (Genesis 4:3).
Futhi kuGenesise 14:20, sifunda ngoAbrahama enikela okweshumi kwakho konke, kwa- uMelkisedeki, inkosi yaseSalema. Futhi baphila ngaphambi komthetho futhi babengabesizukulwane sendalo endala hhayi indalo entsha.
Lithini ibhayibheli ngokukhipha okweshumi esivumelwaneni esisha
Uma siya eNcwadini yeZenzo, sifunda ukuthi labo, owafika kuKristu waba isidalwa esisha, ithengisiwe yonke into futhi wanikela ngakho konke kuNkulunkulu. Banikela konke ababenakho kubaphostoli beBandla; uMzimba kaKristu. Kanjani ngalokho? Lokho kungaphezu kokunikeza okweshumi komholo wakho.
Ayekhona namasonto, ababengamacanral, Ngokwesibonelo, ibandla laseKorinte. Ku 2 AbaseKorinte 8, UPawulu wafundisa ibandla ngokupha.
Izikhathi eziningi, AmaKristu afuna ukwamukela kuphela futhi awazimisele ukupha. Kodwa masinikele okungokukaNkulunkulu. Qala ngokunikeza okweshumi komholo wakho, ngoba ubonga ukuthi uNkulunkulu ukubusisile ngomsebenzi; ngemali engenayo, indlu, ukudla, njll. futhi lipha abampofu izipho.
Lapho ubonga futhi ubonga uNkulunkulu, uzonikela kuNkulunkulu ngokuthanda kwakho. Hhayi ngoba kufanele, kodwa ngoba ufuna (Funda futhi: ‘Inkolo noma ubudlelwano‘).
Indlela yokuphuma esikweletini?
Mhlawumbe unenkinga yezimali noma unezikweletu futhi awuyiboni indlela yokuphuma. Qala ukunikela kuNkulunkulu. Ngenxa yokulalela kwakho nangokunikela kuNkulunkulu, uyamkhombisa ukuthi uyamthanda Yena futhi uyamethemba nokuthi ukholelwa ukuthi uNkulunkulu uzokunikeza kuzo zonke izimo.
Chitha isikhathi eZwini likaNkulunkulu nasemthandazweni, khipha okweshumi futhi unikele futhi uyeke ukuchitha imali emhlabeni ezintweni zakho, ongakudingi.
Uma wenza lokhu, uzobona ukuthi uNkulunkulu uzokukhipha ngendlela eyisimangaliso kuleso simo nokuthi uNkulunkulu uzokubuyisela izimali zakho. UNkulunkulu uzozigcwalisa izithembiso Zakhe, uma uhlangabezana nemibandela. Ngoba, kufanele nifune kuqala umbuso wakhe nokulunga kwakhe futhi konke okunye kuyakwenezelwa nina!
Ungakhiphi imali ngenxa yokuhaha, kodwa nikelani ngothando
Ungakhiphi imali ngenxa yokuhaha, ukuze uthole imali eyengeziwe. Lesi akusona isimo sengqondo esifanele sokunikela. Kodwa nikelani ngothando, ngoba uyamthanda uNkulunkulu futhi ubonga uNkulunkulu. lapho unikela kuNkulunkulu ngenhliziyo ebongayo, uyakuba nenjabulo enhliziyweni yakho.
Kodwa lokhu ngiyakusho, Ohlwanyela ingcosana uyakuvuna ingcosana; nohlwanyela kakhulu uyakuvuna kakhulu (2 AbaseKorinte 9:6)
Futhi uNkulunkulu unamandla okunipha umusa wonke uvame; ukuthi wena, njalo lilokwenela konke ezintweni zonke, livame kuwo wonke umsebenzi omuhle (2 AbaseKorinte 9:8)
Uhlakazekile; wapha abampofu: ukulunga kwakhe kumi phakade. Kepha onika imbewu kumhlanyeli wokhonza isinkwa sokudla kwenu, wandise imbewu yakho, futhi andise izithelo zokulunga kwakho; (Amahubo 112:9)
Njengoba uNkulunkulu esho, Pngiqhube Mina. Umbuzo kuwe uthi: Uyalokotha yini ukukholwa uNkulunkulu?
‘Yiba usawoti womhlaba’
