AmaKristu amaningi abheke phambili ukubuya kukaJesu. Babheke phambili ezulwini elisha nomhlaba omusha, lokho kuzofika. Balindele ukuthola ukuphila okuphakade futhi bathole ifa kuJesu Kristu ngemva kokufa kwabo. KunamaKristu amaningi, ngubani namanje bazibheka njengezoni. Bacabanga, ukuthi bathwale umthwalo wesono, ububi obukhona, icala, nokulahlwa ngesikhathi sokuphila kwabo emhlabeni. Bayakhuleka, funda iBhayibheli, hamba uye esontweni wenze umsebenzi wokupha ebandleni kanye nomphakathi futhi uphile impilo yobuKristu futhi ucabange, ukuthi ngokwenza lezizinto, basindisiwe. Baholwa yinyama yabo; imizwa yabo, imizwelo, cabangela, nezinzwa, futhi uphile njengomhlaba nje. Balinda ukufa, okuyobanikeza ukufinyelela ekuphileni okuphakade nefa labo ezulwini elisha nasemhlabeni omusha. Kodwa bazokuthola yini abakulindele noma cha? Kungani Izulu Elisha Futhi Umhlaba Omusha Ungeze Kwaba Amakholwa amaningi?
I okusha izulu nomhlaba omusha
Ngabona izulu elisha nomhlaba omusha: ngokuba izulu lokuqala nomhlaba wokuqala kudlulile; ulwandle lwalungasekho (IsAmbulo 21:1)
Ngeshwa, izulu elisha nomhlaba omusha ngeke kufike kumaKristu amaningi. Esikhundleni sokuphila okuphakade, bayakwamukeliswa umlilo ophakade. Umlilo, ababefanele ukukwamukela, phakathi nokuphila kwabo emhlabeni wakhe futhi wayeyobanikeza ukufinyelela ekuphileni okuphakade nasezulwini elisha nomhlaba omusha.
Phakathi nokuphila kwabo emhlabeni, kwakufanele ngabe bahlanjululwe futhi bangcwelisiwe, ngalomlilo ongcwele.
Wonke umuntu, abakholwa kuJesu, baphenduke futhi benze uJesu abe nguMsindisi neNkosi yezimpilo zabo (Umsindisi ebugqilini babo njengesoni, kanye nemvelo yabo enesono, kanye neNkosi yesimo sabo esisha sikamoya: indalo entsha), futhi kunjaloozelwe ngamanzi nangoMoya, izohlanzwa, futhi bangcweliswe ngeZwi nangomlilo kaMoya oNgcwele.
Ngegazi likaJesu Kristu senziwe ngcwele futhi nilungile, futhi zonke izono zakho kanye nobubi kusukela ekuphileni kwakho kwangaphambili zithethelelwe futhi kwesuliwe. Kodwa manje lesi simo sikamoya kumele sibonakale empilweni yakho, futhi lokho kwenzeka ngenqubo yokungcweliswa.
Umlilo kaMoya oNgcwele uyadingeka kulowo ozelwe ngokusha, ukuze bangcwelise izimpilo zabo futhi balahle imisebenzi yenyama (Isono nobubi (Funda futhi: ‘Kuyini ukubhabhadiswa ngomlilo?‘)).
UMoya oNgcwele
KunamaKristu amaningi, abangamvumi uMoya oNgcwele njengoMuntu, ingasaphathwa imisebenzi Yakhe. Babheka uMoya oNgcwele njengohlobo oluthile lwamandla, amandla, amandla noma umoya, lokho kuphephetha phezu kwabantu, bese beza behamba.
Abakholelwa ekubhapathizweni ngoMoya oNgcwele futhi bacabanga ukuthi kuyinqaba ukukhuluma ngezinye izilimi, abangakwazi ukukuqonda. Lapho bezwa abantu bekhuluma ngezinye izilimi, bazibheka njengezixakile, kufiphele, neziwula.
Ngeshwa, amaKristu amaningi ayakwenqaba ukubhapathizwa ngoMoya oNgcwele. Nakuba lokhu kubhapathizwa kuyadingeka ukuze ube yindalo entsha futhi uhambe emva kukaMoya. Ngaphandle kombhaphathizo kaMoya oNgcwele, akunakwenzeka ukuba ube indalo entsha, ingasaphathwa eyokuhamba njengesidalwa esisha emva kukaMoya.
UJesu uyisibonelo sethu
Uma sibheka impilo kaJesu, siyabona ukuthi uJesu wayengowokuqala abhabhathizwe ngamanzi, bese ebhapathizwa ngoMoya oNgcwele. UJesu wayeyizibulo leNdalo entsha (Indoda entsha); ozelwe ngamanzi nangoMoya. Lapho uJesu ebhapathizwa ngoMoya oNgcwele, uMoya oNgcwele wamholela ehlane. UJesu wasebenzisa 40 izinsuku ehlane ukuvuza.
Kungani uJesu aholelwa ehlane? Ngoba inyama Yakhe kwakufanele ibe ngaphansi kukaMoya, ukuze uJesu afeze umsebenzi wakhe kulomhlaba. Kwakulula? Cha, kodwa uJesu wakwenza!
UJesu wamelana nazo zonke izilingo zikasathane. Lapho uJesu ephuma ehlane, Inyama Yakhe yathotshelwa uMoya futhi inkonzo Yakhe yaqala.
UJesu uyisibonelo sethu, ngakho uma uJesu ekwenzile, kufanele futhi sikwenze. Ngaphandle kwa-, asifuni ukufana noJesu futhi asifuni ukuhamba njengoJesu.
Ukufa kwekhehla
Inkinga ngamaKrestu amaningi, ukuthi bangabe besafa ngokwenyama, futhi ungakhumuli umuntu omdala nemvelo yakhe yesono. Abakhethi ukubeka phansi inyama yabo kulokhu kuphila. Ngakho-ke ngokuzenzekelayo bakhetha ukubeka phansi inyama yabo lapho befa ngokwemvelo. Kodwa uma bekhetha owakamuva, khona-ke kuyobe sekwephuze kakhulu ukuba sizuze ifa lokuphila okuphakade. UJesu wathi, ukuthi unenkululeko yokuzikhethela phakathi nokuphila kwakho kulo mhlaba
- ukufa, enyameni, ngesikhathi impilo yakho futhi uzuze impilo yakho
- ukufa, enyameni, ngemva ukufa kwakho futhi ulahlekelwe ukuphila kwakho
Uma ukhetha owokuqala bese ufela inyama, phakathi nokuphila kwakho kulo mhlaba, kunawo ngokukhululeka beka phansi impilo yakho kuKristu. Kulapho kuphela lapho uyothola khona ukuphila okuphakade.
Kodwa uma uthanda impilo yakho ngaphezu kokuthanda uJesu, futhi abazimisele, kwa- kufa enyameni, phakathi nokuphila kwakho kulo mhlaba, bese uzokhetha ngokuzenzakalelayo inketho yakamuva: ukufa, enyameni, ngemva uyafa, futhi niyakwamukeliswa ukufa okuphakade (Maka 8:34-35, UJohane 12:24-25).
Nguwe, owenza isinqumo, akekho omunye ongakwazi ukukwenzela leso sinqumo. Wonke umuntu emhlabeni uzobhekana noJesunjengoMsindisi noma njengoMahluleli.
Kuphela uma ubeka phansi ngokukhululeka ukuphila kwakho (inyama yakho, 'uqobo lwakho'), phakathi nokuphila kwakho kulo mhlaba futhigqoka umuntu omusha futhi ulalele uJesu; iZwi, futhi uqondiswe futhikulungiswe ngeZwi, khona izulu elisha nomhlaba kuyakufikela nina.
Kodwa uma ungawubeki phansi ukuphila kwakho, futhi ungakwenzi gqoka umuntu omushafuthi niqhubeke niphila ngokwenyama. Lapho ungazithobi eZwini futhi ungalilaleli iZwi, khona izulu elisha nomhlaba omusha akuyikufikela nina. Kodwa nizakwamukeliswa umlilo ophakade esikhundleni.
Ukufela enyameni kuyinqubo ebuhlungu, Kepha kuyadingeka. Angikhulumi ngokuzibulala (uzibulale), kodwa ngikhuluma ngokubulala imisebenzi yenyama.
Ngeshwa, abashumayeli abaningi abashumayeli ngakho ukufa enyameni, nokwembatha umuntu omusha. Bathi: “kulungile ke, konke kungomusa, futhi siyakholwa kuJesu Kristu.” Kodwa umusa kaNkulunkulu awusoze wasetshenziswa njengezaba, ukuqhubeka uphila esonweni (Funda futhi: ‘Ungaqhubeka ukona ngaphansi komusa?’).
Udeveli naye uyakholelwa kuNkulunkulu
Usathane namadimoni akhe, futhi kholwani kuJesu, nakuNkulunkulu, futhi ngicabanga ngisho nangaphezu kwabantu abaningi. Ngoba udeveli umbonile uNkulunkulu ubuso nobuso, futhi ngisho waMkhonza. Udeveli uyazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu ungubani. Kodwa ngenxa yakhe ukungalaleli uNkulunkulu, udeveli waphonswa ezulwini waphonswa emhlabeni. Indawo yokugcina kadeveli namademoni akhe iyichibi lomlilo.
Uma uthi uyakholwa kuJesu Kristu kodwa uqhubeke wenza intando yakho uqhubeke uphila ngokwenyama, aniyikwamukela ukuphila okuphakade. Ngoba inqobo nje uma nihlala nilalela inyama futhi nikhonza isono, usathane ungumbusi wakho. Ukukholelwa kuJesu Kristu kuyisiqalo futhi akusona isiphetho.
Ngokukholwa kuJesu Kristu, wenziwe ulungile futhi ungcwele. Lapho uba azalwe kabusha futhi wemukele uMoya waKhe, uyakwenza ibentsha ingqondo yakho, uhambe ngokulandela uMoya ebungcweleni nasekulungeni, ukwenza imisebenzi kaJesu.
Uzozithoba eZwini, futhi aqondiswe yiZwi. Uzokwenza lalela iZwi, futhi enze intando yaKhe.
Lena imfihlo yokukholwa. Ngoba uma umuntu ehlala engokwenyama futhi eqhubeka ephila ngokwenyama, inyama iyabusa empilweni yomuntu. Umuntu uyokholwa izwe esikhundleni seZwi futhi uyobuswa umuzwa. Umuntu ngeke akwazi ukukholwa futhi ngeke akwazi ukugcina, noma ulalele imiyalo kaNkulunkulu. Ngoba inyama ayikwazi ukulalela intando kaNkulunkulu.
Ingqondo yenyama ubutha ngoNkulunkulu
Ukuze ube nomqondo wasemnyama; Kepha ukunakekelwa ngokomoya kuyimpilo nokuthula. Ngoba ingqondo yenyama ubutha ngoNkulunkulu: Ngoba akunandaba nomthetho kaNkulunkulu, futhi akunakuba njalo. Ngakho-ke nabo, abasenyameni, angemthokozise uNkulunkulu (AmaRoma 8:6-8)
UJesu wabiza umuntu ongakazalwa, ongakholwayo, nesizukulwane esonakele: Khona uJesu waphendula wathi, O sizukulwane esingakholwayo nesiphambeneyo, koze kube nini nginani? koze kube nini nginibekezelela? (Mathewu 17:17)
UPawulu wabhalela ibandla laseThesalonika:
Lapho iNkosi uJesu iyokwembulwa ezulwini kanye nezingelosi zayo ezinamandla, Emalangabi omlilo ephindisela kwabangamaziyo uNkulunkulu, nabangalaleli ivangeli leNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu: abayakujeziswa ngokubhujiswa okuphakade basuke ebusweni beNkosi, nasenkazimulweni yamandla akhe (2 Thesalonika 1:7-9)
Uma ungamazi uJesu, iZwi, ngeke ukwazi ukumlalela nokugcina imiyalo Yakhe. Ungakwazi kuphela yazi iNkosi uJehova, ngoJesu, iZwi (Ibhayibheli).
Ngakho uma wena ungenzi yazi iZwi, awumazi, futhi uzokwenza hhayi bakwazi ukuhamba emva kwentando Yakhe futhi bamthokozise. Uma ungalilaleli iZwi futhi ungahambi ngentando Yakhe, kaliyikwamukela ukuphila okuphakade, kodwa ukubhujiswa okuphakade.
Kuphela uma umuntu ezelwe ngamanzi nangoMoya, futhi uhamba emva kukaMoya, (s)uyongena embusweni kaNkulunkulu kulomhlaba, futhi uthole ukuphila okuphakade.
Nakhu ayikho enye indlela kunokufa kuJesu Kristu, lokuvuswa kwabafileyo ngamandla kaMoya oNgcwele, nokuba isidalwa esisha. Uyoba isidalwa esisha ngesikhathi sokuphila kwakho kulo mhlaba hhayi ngemva kokufa kwakho, ngoba ngaleso sikhathi kuyoba sekwephuze kakhulu, futhi ngeke ungene emhlabeni omusha.
“Yiba usawoti womhlaba”
