Ukuziphatha kwabantu nezenzo zabo kuphuma engqondweni. Ngakho-ke, ingqondo inquma ukuziphatha nezenzo zabantu. Ngaphambi kokuthi umuntu enze okuthile, kuningi osekwenzekile engqondweni. IBhayibheli lithi, ukuthi ingqondo ingalawulwa futhi ibuswe yinyama; obuswa umbuso wobumnyama noma ngoMoya; Obuswa uMbuso kaNkulunkulu. Ngakho-ke ingqondo inokuzikhethela ukwenza intando kaNkulunkulu noma intando kadeveli.
Umqondo wenyama
Ngaphambi kokuba ukholelwe kuJesu Kristu futhi waphenduka, umqondo wakho wawungowenyama futhi wawulawulwa yizwe; umbuso wobumnyama. Ingqondo yakho yaphakelwa futhi yakhiwa ulwazi, ukuhlakanipha nezinto zalomhlaba.
Kodwa ngenkathi ukholwa kuJesu Kristu, waphenduka, futhi waba azalwe kabusha emoyeni, Udluliselwe embusweni wobumnyama ungene eMbusweni kaNkulunkulu. Nahlukaniswa nezwe. Ubungesiye owezwe; umbuso wobumnyama, yini, kodwa naningababombuso kaNkulunkulu. Wawungaseyona indalo endala kodwa wawusuphenduke indalo entsha; indodana kaNkulunkulu (lokhu kusebenza kokubili abesilisa nabesifazane), kodwa ingqondo yakho yayisafana.
Ukwenziwa ibentsha ingqondo
Nakuba ube isidalwa esisha, ingqondo yakho yayisafana. Ingqondo yakho yayingashintshile futhi ingqondo yakho yayisafaniswe nezwe. Ngakho-ke, kwakudingekile ukuba vuselela ingqondo yakho ngeZwi likaNkulunkulu, ukuze uzibonele intando kaNkulunkulu futhi uhambe ngokwentando yakhe.
Kubaluleke kakhulu, ukuthi ingqondo yakho ivumelana neZwi likaNkulunkulu. Ngoba kuphela lapho, uzoba nomqondo kaKristu. Lapho unomqondo kaKristu, uzokhuluma futhi wenze njengoJesu futhi uphile ngokwentando kaNkulunkulu ngobungcwele nokulunga.
Futhi ningalingisi leli zwe: kodwa liguqulwe ngokwenziwa ibentsha ingqondo yenu, ukuze nihlole lokho okuhle, futhi eyamukelekayo, futhi ephelele, intando kaNkulunkulu (AmaRoma 12:2)
Futhi uvuselelwa emoyeni wengqondo yakho; Nokuthi nigqoke indoda entsha, Yikuphi ngemuva kokuba uNkulunkulu adalwe ngokulunga nangobungcwele beqiniso (Efe 4:23-24)
Kodwa inqobo nje, njengoba ungekho vuselela ingqondo yakho ngeZwi likaNkulunkulu, ingqondo yakho iyohlala ingavuselelwanga ngakho-ke uzohlala unjalo njengangaphambi kokuphenduka kwakho. Umqondo wakho uzohlala ungokwenyama futhi uzoqhubeka uhamba njengo indalo endala Ngemuva kwenyama. Uzolawulwa yinyama yakho futhi uzoholwa yimizwa yakho, imizwelo, imicabango, imizwa, Imibono, intando njll. Inqobo nje uma ulawulwa yinyama, niyakuhlwanyela enyameni, nivune ukonakala nokufa.
Ukuze ube nomqondo wasemnyama; Kepha ukunakekelwa ngokomoya kuyimpilo nokuthula. Ngoba ingqondo yenyama ubutha ngoNkulunkulu: Ngoba akunandaba nomthetho kaNkulunkulu, futhi akunakuba njalo. Ngakho-ke labo abasenyameni ngeke bakwazi ukujabulisa uNkulunkulu (Rom 8:6-8)
Labo, ababuswa yinyama njalonjalo (Isimo Esinesono) futhi bayobeka izingqondo zabo ezintweni zenyama (Isono Imvelo) futhi uyokwenza lokho inyama ethanda ukukwenza. Kodwa labo, ababuswa nguMoya njalo, futhi bayobeka izingqondo zabo ezintweni zikaMoya noMbuso kaNkulunkulu.
Ikhehla lisola abanye
Izikhathi eziningi amakholwa, abangaziphathanga kahle noma abenze iphutha bavame ukusho: ”udeveli ungenze ngakwenza, wangenza isono”. I Indoda endala uhlale efihla futhi esola abanye ngokuziphatha kwakhe nangephutha lakhe(s) futhi akalokothi aziphendulele ngephutha(s) wenza.
Lapho u-Adamu ona, wazifihla kuNkulunkulu. Lapho uNkulunkulu embuza, uba wayedlile emthini owenqatshelwe, Ngokushesha u-Adamu wasola u-Eva ngowakhe ukungalaleli uNkulunkulu. U-Eva wenza ngendlela efanayo futhi wasola inyoka ngokungalaleli kwakhe.
Kunjalo, inyoka yamlinga u-Eva, kodwa u-Eva no-Adamu babenecala ngezenzo zabo. Lapho u-Eva elingwa udeveli, kwangena umcabango welukuluku nesilingo emqondweni wakhe futhi esikhundleni sokuyala lowo mcabango ukuba uhambe, wavumela umcabango emqondweni wakhe futhi wawuthatha lowo mcabango.
Ngaphambi kokuba athathe isinyathelo futhi adle isithelo esenqatshelwe, wayesezikhethele kakade ukudla isithelo esenqatshelwe. U-Adamu wenza into efanayo, futhi wavuma isilingo.
Ngakho, bobabili babenecala ngezenzo zabo. Kwakuyibo, owonayo hhayi usathane.
Usathane usazama ukulinga abantu enyameni, ngoba leyo yinsimu yakhe. Uyohlale ezama ukukulinga ngokufaka imicabango emibi engqondweni yakho, lokho kuzokwenza ukuthi uziphathe kabi, wenze iphutha futhi wenze noma usho into ephambene nentando kaNkulunkulu. Yebo, udeveli uzama ukulinga abantu ngokufaka imicabango engqondweni yabo engase ibangele ukuba bone. Yilokho akwenza ngo-Adamu no-Eva, UKayini, UmkaLoti, uSamsoni, USawulu, UDavid, USolomoni njll. Yebo, wazama nokulinga uJesu, iNdodana kaNkulunkulu, kodwa uJesu wayethanda uNkulunkulu ngaphezu kwakho konke, Wayekwazi intando kaBaba Wakhe kanye nemvelo Yakhe, ngakho-ke wamnqoba udeveli ngokusebenzisa iZwi likaNkulunkulu ngendlela efanele.
Usathane angakulinga, Kepha awukwazi ukukwenza isono
Usathane angakulinga, kodwa akakwazi ukunenza one. Nguwe, ngubani onecala ngezono zenu. Unquma ukwenza into ephambene nentando kaNkulunkulu futhi one noma cha. Unesibopho sokuziphatha kwakho nezenzo zakho. Futhi konke kuqala engqondweni yakho. Ingqondo yakho iyindawo yokuzalanisa okuhle noma okubi.
Ngeshwa, usathane usenokulawula emiqondweni yamakholwa amaningi. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi amakholwa amaningi awakwenzi Vuselela ingqondo yabo ngeZwi likaNkulunkulu. Ngakho-ke, abazi lutho intando kaNkulunkulu. Baqhubeka bondla ingqondo yabo ngolwazi, ukuhlakanipha nezinto zalomhlaba. Ngenxa yalokho, ingqondo yabo ingeyezwe; usathane, futhi bahamba ngokuvumelana intando yakhe.
Ngenxa yeqiniso, ukuthi udeveli ulawula ingqondo, futhi ulawula izimpilo zamakholwa amaningi. Unquma ukuziphatha kwabo, inkulumo, kanye nezenzo. Yebo, uyabalawula ngokulawula ingqondo yabo; imicabango yabo. Ufaka imicabango engqondweni yabo ephambene nentando kaNkulunkulu, futhi inqobo nje uma besenyameni futhi beholwa yinyama, bayolalela lemicabango. Bayohamba futhi baphile ngokuvumelana nemicabango yabo futhi bayala ukuba bakwenze. Njengoba nje iZwi lisho, ukuthi ungakaphenduki wawuphila njengomhlaba, ezinkanukweni zenyama yenu, ukufeza izifiso zenyama yakho nezengqondo.
Futhi washesha, Obani ababefile eziphambekweni nasezonweni; Lapho edlula khona ngesikhathi esidlule lapho uhamba khona ngokwesifundo saleli zwe, NgokweNkosana Yamandla Emoya, Umoya osebenza manje ezinganeni zokungalaleli: esake sakhuluma phakathi kwabo sonke ngezinkanuko zenyama yethu, ukufeza izifiso zenyama nezengqondo; futhi ngokwemvelo babengabantwana bolaka, njengabanye (Kwabase-Efesu 2:1-3)
Ukuphinga
Umuntu akafebi, kanjalo nje. Nakuba amanye amakholwa, abaphingile, isho, ukuthi abakwazanga ukukusiza futhi ngaphambi kokuba bazi baphinga. Kodwa umbhedo lowo! Ukungathembeki nokuphinga ngephutha akukho. Ngoba ngaphambi kokuba umuntu aphinge, zonke izinhlobo zemicabango yocansi engcolile isivele yangena engqondweni yomuntu. Baveza umqondo wokuphinga. Umuntu angadukisa abantu abaningi, abenyama futhi abaholwa yimizwa nemizwa yabo, ngokuthatha indima yesisulu, ukuze abanye bamzwele lowo muntu futhi babe nozwelo. Kodwa labo, abaholwa nguMoya oNgcwele, futhi abaholwa imizwa nemizwa yenyama, ungaweli ngalokho. Bayohlukanisa imimoya, kuhlanganise nomoya wokuzidabukela.
Kodwa ngaphambi kokuba umuntu aphinge, umcabango ongcolile wocansi wenkanuko nesifiso usuvele wangena engqondweni. Lomcabango wavela ezinkanukweni nasezifisweni zenyama. Lokhu kukhombisa, ukuthi inyama kayisiyo ebethelwe kuKristu, kodwa usaphila futhi uyabusa empilweni yomuntu. Ukube umuntu wayenakho wathatha igunya phezu kwalomcabango, ngokuyiyala ukuthi iphume engqondweni yakhe, umuntu ubengeke aphinge. Kodwa lo muntu akakwenzanga lokho futhi wawuvumela lowo mcabango. Umuntu akagcinanga nje ngokuvumela umcabango kodwa futhi wazindla ngalo mcabango. Emqondweni, umuntu usephingile futhi usezihlanganise nomunye umuntu. Manje, le mizwa yocansi engcolile yenkanuko izoba namandla.
Umuntu, owenza ubufebe noma ophingayo, ukwenze lokhu ngokuzindla. Ngemva kokuphinga, lomoya ongcolile wenkanuko yobulili nesifiso uyobusa empilweni yomuntu. Ngoba umuntu uye walalela lomoya ngokuphinga futhi unikeze ithuba lokuphila kwakhe. Lo moya uyozibonakalisa ngezikhathi ezithile. Kungakho izikhathi eziningi lapho umuntu ephinga akubi nje isikhathi esisodwa, kodwa emva kwesikhashana, kuyenzeka futhi.
Nginikeze lesi sibonelo sokuphinga, kodwa kunezibonelo eziningi ongazibala, ngemicabango ebanga ukuziphatha nezenzo, lokho kuphambene nentando kaNkulunkulu. Njengenhlebo, ukukhwabanisa, ukuqamba amanga, ukuthukuthela, khathazeka, ukukhononda, ukulimaza abanye abantu, imikhonyovu, ubusela, ukukhwabanisa imali, ukubalekela intela nokunye. Zonke lezi zenzo zenziwa ngokuzindla ngoba zonke ziphuma emqondweni womuntu.
Ingqondo inokuzikhethela
Ingqondo inokuzikhethela. Inqobo nje uma umuntu ehlala engokwenyama futhi engakwazi ukulawula inyama yakhe, umuntu uyakubuswa yinyama yakhe; Isono Imvelo. Umuntu uzoholwa yimicabango yakhe esikhundleni sokuthatha igunya phezu kwemicabango yakhe.
Wonke umuntu uzenzela ezakhe izinqumo ukuze avumele imicabango, futhi ukhulelwe imicabango nezono, noma ukulahla imicabango futhi ungoni. Wonke umuntu unomthwalo wemfanelo ngengqondo yakhe, ukuziphatha nezenzo. Ngakho-ke awukwazi ukusola abanye ngokuziphatha noma izenzo zakho.
Yingakho ke, kubaluleke kakhulu futhi kuyadingeka vuselela ingqondo yakho ngeZwi likaNkulunkulu, esikhundleni sokuthi wondle ingqondo yakho ngezinto zalomhlaba. Ngoba ingqondo yakho inquma ukuziphatha kwakho nezenzo zakho.
Indlela yakho yokuphila iyafakaza, uma unomqondo wenyama futhi uholwa yinyama noma unomqondo kaKristu ohambisana neZwi futhi uholwa nguMoya. Uma unomqondo kaKristu futhi uholwa nguMoya oNgcwele khona-ke uzophila ngokuvumelana nawo Intando kaNkulunkulu futhi niMkhonze.
Mkhonze ngenhliziyo ephelele nangengqondo evumayo: ngoba uJehova uhlola izinhliziyo zonke, futhi uqonda yonke imicabango yemicabango: uma umfuna, Uzotholwa nguwe; kepha uma umshiya, uyakulahla kuze kube phakade (1 IziKronike 28:9)
