U-Esawu wayeyizibulo lika-Isaka, owayenelungelo lobuzibulo. Njengezibulo, U-Esawu wayenesikhundla esikhethekile futhi wayenelungelo lesibusiso nesithembiso sefa likayise u-Isaka.. Kodwa ngomzuzwana wobuthakathaka, U-Esawu wayengasihloniphi isikhundla sakhe futhi wayengabazisi ubuzibulo bakhe, kepha u-Esawu wadelela ubuzibulo bakhe, wathengisa ngobuzibulo bakhe ukuze azithobe isikhashana. NjengamaKristu amaningi athengisa ubuzibulo bawo ukuze bathole injabulo yesikhashana yezwe futhi acabange ukuthi uNkulunkulu uyakuvumela. Kodwa kuyiqiniso lokho? Lithini iBhayibheli ngokuthengisa ubuzibulo bakho?
U-Esawu wadelela ubuzibulo bakhe
Landelani ukuthula nabantu bonke, nobungcwele, ngaphandle kwalokho kakho ozayibona iNkosi: nibhekisise kungabikho osilelayo umusa kaNkulunkulu; funa kumile impande yokubaba inikhathaze, futhi ngalokho abaningi bayangcoliswa; funa kube khona isifebe, noma umuntu ongcolile, ku-Esawu, owathengisa ngobuzibulo bakhe ngocezwana lunye (amaHebheru 12:14-16)
Lapho u-Esawu ebuya endle, wabona isitshulu sikadali, uJakobe ayekuphekile, U-Esawu wacela uJakobe ukuthi amphakele ngokubomvu okubomvu, ngoba uEsawu wayediniwe. Kodwa uJakobe wathi, ukuthi uEsawu engakadli, U-Esawu kwadingeka amthengisele ubuzibulo bakhe. Njengoba ukulamba kuka-Eaus kwakubaluleke kakhulu kuye kunobuzibulo bakhe, U-Esawu wasamukela isicelo sikaJakobe.
Futhi kwenzeka, ukuthi u-Esawu, owayengcolile, wathengisa ngobuzibulo bakhe kumfowabo omncane uJakobe ngesinkwa nesitshulu sikadali.
Ubuzibulo buka-Esawu babulingana naye njengepuleti lokudla.
Ngamazwi nangesenzo sakhe, U-Esawu wabonisa ukuthi wayengamesabi uNkulunkulu futhi wayengabazisi ubuzibulo bakhe; ukuma, kanye nefa, ayizuzile ngomusa kaNkulunkulu, esikhundleni salokho u-Esawu wadelela ubuzibulo bakhe (Genesis 25:29-34).
Ngesenzo sakhe, U-Esawu akagcinanga nje ngokudelela futhi walahla ubuzibulo bakhe, kepha u-Esawu wamdelela, wamenqaba uMniki lobuzibulo bakhe.
Ngikuthandile, isho iNkosi. Nokho nithi, Usithande ngakuphi? Wayengeyena u-Esawu umfowabo kaJakobe? isho iNkosi: nokho ngamthanda uJakobe, Ngamzonda u-Esawu, izintaba zakhe wazenza incithakalo ngenxa yamakhanka asehlane. (UMalaki 1:2-3)
Isenzo sika-Esawu sasiyisinengiso kuNkulunkulu, ngoba u-Esawu wayengawuqakathekisi umthetho kaNkulunkulu, kodwa wadelela ngakho uNkulunkulu wamzonda u-Esawu (UMalaki 1:3, AmaRoma 9:13).
Ukuthengisa ubuzali bakho bokuzalwa kwenjabulo yesikhashana
Ngeshwa, ngokungazi nokuntula ulwazi lweZwi likaNkulunkulu amaKristu amaningi awabazisi ubuzibulo bawo futhi awathathi isikhundla sawo njengendodana kaNkulunkulu futhi aphile njengesidalwa esisha ngemva kukaMoya., njengoJesu. Kunalokho, amaKristu amaningi ahlala eyindalo endala, ongowenyama futhi ophila ngokwenyama, njengo-Esawu.
UJesu wakwazi ukumelana nezilingo zenyama, ngoba uJesu wayemesaba uYise njalo emazi uYise lamazwi akhe.
Wayemthanda uYise ngayo yonke inhliziyo Yakhe, ingqondo, umphefumulo, namandla.
UJesu wayezinikele kuNkulunkulu uBaba futhi wafuna izinto, ezaziphezulu hhayi izinto, ezazisemhlabeni.
Kodwa amaKristu amaningi ahlala endalo endala, abazithandayo, nangenxa yokuntula ukwesaba uNkulunkulu neZwi laKhe, futhi ngenxa yenhlamba yabo, bashintshile ngezikhundla zabo, isithembiso, nefa lezinjabulo zesikhashana kanye nokufeza izinkanuko nezifiso zenyama yabo.
Babonisa ngezenzo ukuthi uthando lwabo ngokwabo lukhulu kunothando lwabo ngoNkulunkulu. Futhi ukuthi ukufeza izinkanuko nezifiso zabo zesikhashana kubaluleke kakhulu kubo kunokuhlala bethembekile futhi bethembekile kuNkulunkulu, IZwi laKhe, noMoya oNgcwele, Abamamukele kuye. Ngenxa yokuziphatha kwabo, bayameyisa uNkulunkulu, uJesu; IZwi laKhe, noMoya oNgcwele.
Ukungabi nandaba nesono
Ngenxa yezimfundiso ezingamanga ze Uthando lwamanga futhi Umusa Wamanga, ukungcweliswa akusashunyayelwa futhi inqubo yokungcweliswa ayisatholakali. Ikhehla alihlehli kodwa lihlala liphila ngakho-ke abaningi baphila emvelweni yabo yenyama endala.
Intshumayelo yesimanje isidale isithombe, ukuthi akunandaba ukuthi uphila kanjani ngakho-ke amakholwa amaningi ayekethise futhi awanandaba nesono futhi anikeze ukufinyelela ezinkanukweni nasezifisweni zenyama. (Funda futhi: ‘Uma usulondoloziwe njalo? ‘Ungaphila esonweni futhi usindiswe?’ futhi ‘Imfundiso yamaNikolawu’).
Isono asisathathwa njengesibi, okuphambene nentando kaNkulunkulu ngakho-ke kufanele kususwe. Kunalokho, isono sithathwa njengento eyingxenye yesintu ngakho isono siyamukelwa (Funda futhi: ‘Ungakwazi yini ukusebenzisa umhlaba ophukile njengezaba?‘ futhi ‘Ungaqhubeka ukona ngaphansi komusa?‘).
Kungani kufanele ushintshe uma ungacela intethelelo?
Kungani kufanele ushintshe uma nawe ukwazi ukuphila ngokwenyama uqhubeke ukona futhi uvele ucele intethelelo njalo lapho ona futhi uthethelelwe?
Ngenxa yalo mqondo, amakholwa amaningi awona kusengaphambili, okusho ukuthi ngaphambi kokuba benze isono, kakade babehlose ukucela intethelelo ngokushesha ngemva kokuba bonile. Ngoba uma nje ucela intethelelo kuNkulunkulu, uzothethelelwa.
Kodwa uma ucabanga ngale ndlela futhi uzama ukuthola indlela yokuqhubeka nokwenza isono ngaphandle kwemiphumela, khona-ke imvelo yakho ayikashintshi futhi awuzalwa kabusha. Usaphila kuleyo mvelo yenyama, ofuna ukuphila ngemva kwentando, izinkanuko, lezifiso zenyama.
Yebo uzothethelelwa uma uphenduka ngokweqiniso esonweni sakho(s). Kodwa kunomehluko phakathi kokwenza isono nokuphikelela ngamabomu esonweni (Funda futhi: ‘Siyini isono esiyisa ekufeni futhi isono esingesiso esokufa?‘)
Abantu abaningi bacela intethelelo ngezono zabo ngenxa yomkhuba othile, ngoba bakhuliswe bafundiswa kanjalo, kumbe ngoba sebebanjiwe, esikhundleni sokubonisa ukuzisola kwangempela (ngesono sabo(s)) kuNkulunkulu. Ngakho-ke abaphenduki ngempela ngemva kwesono sabo, kodwa benza isono esifanayo ngokuphindaphindiwe noma baphinde babuye ngemva kwesikhashana esonweni esifanayo.
Akusekho umnikelo nomusa
Ngoba uma sona ngamabomu ngemuva kwalokho sithole ulwazi lweqiniso, akusekho umnikelo wezono, Kepha ukubhekwa okuthile okwesabekayo kwesahlulelo kanye nentukuthelo yomlilo, okuzodla izitha (amaHebheru 10:26-29)
U-Esawu wayengowesizukulwane sendalo endala; indoda ewile. Umoya ka-Esawu wawusafile futhi u-Esawu ephila ngaphansi kokubuswa yisono nokufa njengesigqila senyama. Kodwa ngisho nangenhlamba yendalo endala, UNkulunkulu akazange abonise umusa.
Lapho umzuzu wesithembiso ufika futhi u-Esawu waya kuyise ukuze athole isibusiso sakhe, U-Esawu walahlwa. U-Esawu akayitholanga indawo yokuphenduka, nakuba u-Esawu wafunisisa ngezinyembezi (Genesis 27:34-40, amaHebheru 12:17).
Cabanga ngamehlo engqondo, kusho ukuthini lokhu kulabo, abaye bathola ulwazi lweqiniso futhi bathi bayakholwa futhi bathi bayindalo entsha futhi bamukele uMoya oNgcwele, kodwa okwamanje, baqhubeka bekhonza inyama yabo futhi banikele ngalokho inyama yabo ekucelayo futhi bathengise ubuzibulo babo ukuze bathole injabulo yesikhashana. Kulabo, abona ngamabomu, akusayikuba khona umhlatshelo, nomusa, kodwa ithemba elibi kuphela.
