EBhayibhelini kuJohane 3: 1-10, UJesu wakhuluma noNikhodemu ngokuzalwa kabusha. Wayesho ukuthini uJesu, Lapho ethi kuNikodemu ukuthi kufanele uzalelwe futhi ukuze ungenise futhi ungene eMbusweni kaNkulunkulu? Kusho ukuthini ukuzalwa ngokusha ngamanzi nangoMoya?
“Ngaphandle kokuthi umuntu azalwe ngokusha, angeke awubone umbuso kaNkulunkulu futhi angengene embusweni kaNkulunkulu”
Kwakukhona umuntu wakubaFarisi, nguNikhodemu, umbusi wamaJuda: Lowo weza kuJesu ebusuku, wathi kuye, Rabi, siyazi ukuthi ungumfundisi ovela kuNkulunkulu: ngoba kakho ongenza lezizibonakaliso ozenzayo, ngaphandle kokuthi uNkulunkulu abe laye. UJesu waphendula wathi kuye, Ngiqinisile, ngempela, ngithi kuwe, Ngaphandle kokuthi umuntu azalwe ngokusha, angewubone umbuso kaNkulunkulu. UNikodima wathi kuye, Umuntu angazalwa kanjani esemdala? Angangena ngokwesibili esiswini sikanina, futhi azalwe?
UJesu waphendula, Ngiqinisile, ngempela, ngithi kuwe, Ngaphandle kokuthi umuntu azalwe ngamanzi langoMoya, angengene embusweni kaNkulunkulu. Lokho okuzelwe yinyama kuyinyama; nalokho okuzelwe nguMoya kungumoya. Ungamangali ngokuthi ngithe kuwe, Kufanele nizalwe kabusha. Umoya uvunguza lapho obala khona, uyawuzwa umsindo wawo, kodwa angazi ukuthi livela ngaphi, nalapho liya khona: unjalo wonke ozelwe nguMoya. UNikodima waphendula wathi kuye, Zingenzeka kanjani lezi zinto? UJesu waphendula wathi kuye, Ungumbusi wakwa-Israyeli, futhi akazi lezizinto? (UJohane 3:1-10)
UNikodima wayengumFarisi, uthisha, nombusi wakwa-Israyeli
UNikodima wayengumFarisi, umfundisi nombusi, nenkosi yakwa-Israyeli. Kepha uNikodemu wayengaqondi ukuthi uJesu wayesho ukuthini ngokuzalwa kabusha. UNikodemu wayeyilungu elicebile nelinamandla lendikimba yokwahlulela ephakeme kakhulu eJudeni lasendulo, iSanhedrin enkulu. Wayengomunye wothisha abaphezulu esizweni. Wayephiwe, brilliant, futhi waba nokuqonda okujulile kwemiBhalo, kanye neziprofetho zikaMesiya.
Ebusuku, UNikodima waya kuJesu wambuza, “Rabi, siyazi ukuthi Wena ungumfundisi ovela kuNkulunkulu: ngoba kakho ongenza lezizimangaliso ozenzayo Wena, ngaphandle kokuthi uNkulunkulu abe laye”.
Kepha ngaphambi kokuthi uNikodemus aqhubeke nokuphikisana kwakhe, UJesu waphazamisa uNikodemu. UJesu wathi, ukuthi uma umuntu engazalwa ngokusha, akaboni, futhi bangangeni embusweni kaNkulunkulu. Kodwa kungani uJesu asho lokhu?
UNikodima wayengumbusi, wayecebile, wayekholwa, Wayazi Imibhalo, wayenguthisha, wayekholelwa kuNkulunkulu, wayemesaba uNkulunkulu, wamukela i okungaphezu kwemvelo, futhi wayehlonipha uJesu. Nokho … ngazo zonke lezi zinto akakwazanga ukungena embusweni kaNkulunkulu.
Umuntu wenyama akakwazi ukuqonda izinto zikaMoya
UNikodima akazange aqonde, ukuthi uJesu wayesho ukuthini ngokuzalwa ngokusha. Ngenxa yokuthi uNikodemu wayengowenyama, UNikodima ubhekisele ekuzalweni kwenyama. Lapho uJesu ephendula uNikodima, wayengakuqondi ukuthi kusho ukuthini uJesu. UJesu wathi, ukuthi yena njengomfundisi ka-Israyeli bekufanele azi ukuthi usho ukuthini. Ngoba umuntu angaba khona, abashumayela futhi bafundise amazwi kaNkulunkulu, akaziqondi izinto zoMbuso kaNkulunkulu?
UNikodemu wayenolwazi olukhulu lobuhlakani bemiBhalo, izwi elilotshiwe. Kodwa uNikodemu wayengazi futhi engaliqondi iZwi Eliphilayo.
UNikodima akazange abone uJesu njengeNdodana kaNkulunkulu, Ngenkathi imiBhalo ifakazela ngaye. Ngakho-ke, UNikodima kwakufanele azi, ukuthi uJesu wayeyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu. UNikodemu wabona ukuthi uNkulunkulu wayenaye, kodwa wabona uJesu njengoMfundisi kuphela, owayethunywe nguNkulunkulu.
UJesu wabonakalisa uMbuso kaNkulunkulu endaweni yemvelo
Ngaphambi kokuba uJesu eze kulo mhlaba futhi waba umuntu ngokugcwele, Wahlala noNkulunkulu; UBaba Wakhe. UJesu waphila embusweni kaNkulunkulu wafika kulomhlaba, Ukushumayela Umbuso KaNkulunkulu. Akazange ashumayele umbuso kaNkulunkulu kuphela, Kepha wabona futhi waletha umbuso kaNkulunkulu kulomhlaba.
Ngesikhathi uJesu eshumayela futhi eletha uMbuso kaNkulunkulu kubantu bakaNkulunkulu (Indlu yakwa-Israyeli), Izibonakaliso nezimangaliso zamlandela.
UMbuso kaNkulunkulu wabonakala endaweni yemvelo, Ngokushumayela kweZwi, iziprofetho, Ukuthethelelwa Kwesono, ukuphulukisa, ukukhululwa, izimpawu, nezimangaliso.
uNikodemu, omunye wabaFarisi, wezwa futhi wabona imisebenzi kaJesu. UNikodima wabona ukuthi uNkulunkulu unoJesu, kodwa wayecabanga ukuthi uJesu ungumfundisi. Lapho uNikodemus elindele ukuthi uJesu aqinisekise ukuthi wayenguthisha, UJesu waqala ukukhuluma ngokuzalwa ngokusha.
Kungani uJesu akhuluma ngokuzalwa ngokusha?
Kungani uJesu akhuluma ngokuzalwa ngokusha? Hhayi-ke, ngoba uJesu wawuphendula umbuzo kaNikhodemu mayelana nemisebenzi Yakhe. UJesu wakhuluma nge indalo entsha. UJesu wamtshela, ukuthi akunakwenzeka ukubona uMbuso kaNkulunkulu, ngaphandle kokuzalwa kabusha; ezalwa ngamanzi (ubhapathizo lwamanzi) kanye loMoya (ubhapathizo ngoMoya oNgcwele).
UJesu wazalwa ngamanzi futhi wazalwa ngoMoya oNgcwele. Wayeyizibulo lendalo entsha; iNdodana kaNkulunkulu.
Wayengowokuqala kwabaningi, lokho kwakuyolandela futhi futhi kwakuyoba amadodana kaNkulunkulu (lokhu kusebenza kokubili abesilisa nabesifazane); Ukuzalwa Kwamanzi NangoMoya.
UJesu wamelela futhi wabonakalisa uMbuso kaNkulunkulu, ngoba aqhamuka embusweni kaNkulunkulu futhi waphila kulo Mbuso. Yize ayehlala kulomhlaba futhi wayengumuntu ngokuphelele, UJesu wayengeyena owaleli zwe. Ngesikhathi sokuphila Kwakhe emhlabeni, UJesu wahamba kulo Mbuso.
UJesu wayewazi uMbuso kaNkulunkulu, yingakho ayekwazi ukushumayela nokuletha uMbuso kaNkulunkulu kubantu bakaNkulunkulu emhlabeni.
Uma umuntu avela ezweni a, uzothunyelwa njengenxusa ezweni B, ngaphandle kokwazi imithetho, imithethonqubo, kanye nomthetho wezwe A, ngeke kwenzeke ukuthi lo muntu afeze umsebenzi wakhe njengenxusa futhi amele izwe u-A. Ngoba inxusa lingamela izwe kanjani, bengawazi umthetho, imithethonqubo, namasiko alelizwe? Akunakwenzeka.
AmaKhristu amanxusa wombuso kaNkulunkulu
Kuyafana namaKristu. AmaKristu kufanele amele uMbuso kaNkulunkulu emhlabeni. Kepha amaKhristu amaningi awazi okuningi ngoNkulunkulu noMbuso kaNkulunkulu.
Ungakwenza kanjani, Njengekholwa azelwe ngokusha, amele uMbuso kaNkulunkulu uma ungazi okuningi ngoMbuso?
- Ungawushumayela kanjani uMbuso kaNkulunkulu, uma ungawazi umthetho nemithethonqubo?
- Futhi ungawushumayela kanjani uMbuso kaNkulunkulu, uma ungalaleli futhi ungawugcini umthetho neziqondiso zalo Mbuso?
- Ungawushumayela kanjani uMbuso kaNkulunkulu, uma ungayazi iNkosi noma ungayilaleli iNkosi nentando Yayo?
- Ungammelela Kanjani Umbuso KaNkulunkulu, uma uqhubeka nokwenza intando yakho, Ukwenza owakho imithetho futhi uphile ngemithetho yakho? Akunakwenzeka!
Awukwazi ukushumayela uMbuso kaNkulunkulu usenyameni
Kuphela lapho uzalwa kabusha kuKristu, nizokwazi ukubona umbuso kaNkulunkulu futhi ningene embusweni kaNkulunkulu.
Ungena embusweni kaNkulunkulu, Ngenkathi usaphila lapha emhlabeni hhayi ngemuva kokufa. (Funda futhi: Kungani izulu elisha nomhlaba omusha kungeke kufike kwabaningi?).
Lapho usuzalwa ngokusha, lakho (ibuyiselwe futhi) Isikhundla esisha sikuJesu Kristu ezulwini. Lapho ukhona ehlezi kuKristu, Uyakuletha umbuso kaNkulunkulu kulomhlaba. Uzoshumayela impilo futhi usakaze impilo kubantu futhi ubuyisele (philisa) kubo egameni likaJesu Kristu namandla kaMoya oNgcwele, futhi avuse abafileyo (ngokomoya nangokwemvelo).
Kusho ukuthini ukuzalwa ngokusha ngamanzi nangoMoya?
Ukuzalwa kabusha noma ukuzalwa kabusha kuhunyushwe egameni lesiGreki i-paliggenesis (G3824) kanye nezindlela: (ngokomoya) ukuzalwa kabusha (isimo noma isenzo), leyo, (ngokomfanekiso) ukulungiswa ngokomoya; ngokuqondile ukubuyiselwa kukaMesiya: – ukuvuselelwa.
Ukuzalwa ngokusha kwenza hhayi kusho ukuguqulwa nje kwendlela yokuphila, Ukuya Kwezinsizakalo Zesonto, Ukuba yinkolo, ubulungu bebandla, noma ukwenza imisebenzi yabantu. Akuyeki ngosizi lwesono nokuphenduka.
Abantu bangaba nomusa, -nothando, namalungu esonto athembekile futhi athembekile futhi ahilelekile emisebenzini eminingi yesonto.
Bangaba nolwazi olukhulu lweBhayibheli noma ngisho nenkululeko, umshumayeli, Umfundisi noma uthisha, futhi ungavuseleli.
U-Nicodemus empeleni uyisibonelo esiphelele.
UNikodima wayengumFarisi, indoda ekholwayo. Wayengathí sina ngoNkulunkulu nomfundisi wemiBhalo. Nokho, UNikodemus akazange azalwe kabusha futhi ayengeyona engokomoya.
Akekho ongangena embusweni kaNkulunkulu ngemisebenzi emihle, impilo yokuzinikela, amakhono omuntu siqu, umzamo, noma ubuhle. Kunendlela eyodwa kuphela yokubona nokungena eMbusweni kaNkulunkulu, futhi lokho kungoJesu Kristu kanye nenqubo yokuzalwa kabusha; Ukuzalwa okusha.
Ukuzalwa kabusha kuhambisana nokuzalwa kwemvelo okungokomoya. Ayikho enye indlela izoni Ukuhlanzwa esonweni sabo nobubi bawo futhi kulungisise futhi ungene embusweni kaNkulunkulu kunokuvuselelwa kabusha kuKristu. (Funda futhi: Kungani inyama negazi kungenakulidla ifa lombuso kaNkulunkulu?).
Kusho ukuthini ukuzalwa kabusha kuKristu ngokweBhayibheli?
Uma ungangeni embusweni kaNkulunkulu ngesikhathi sokuphila kwakho lapha emhlabeni, ngeke ungene embusweni kaNkulunkulu ngemuva kokufa. Kuphela uma uzimisele ukufa '’ Futhi unikeze impilo yakho kuKristu futhi wenze uJesu weNkosi yempilo yakho alandele, kulapho kuphela lizakwemukela ukuphila okuphakade. (Funda futhi: Umsunguli wensindiso yaphakade).
Uma ufela 'uqobo’ ngeke usahamba njengoba uhambe ngaphambi kokuphenduka kwakho, kusuka kwisimo sakho sesono emikhubeni yakho yakudala. Ngoba umuntu ofile angawuthatha kanjani impilo yakhe yakudala? Akunakwenzeka. Umuntu ofile ungcwatshwe futhi nalokhu futhi kunjalo uma inyama yakho ingcwatshwa kuKristu ngobhapathizo.
Umuntu wenyama (omdala wena) ungcwatshwa endlini yokubhabhadisa. Ngakho-ke, endala awusekho.
Ngemva kokubeka phansi impilo yakho endala (ubhapathizo), umoya wakho uyovuswa kwabafileyo, ngamandla kaMoya oNgcwele futhi niyakwamukeliswa uMoya oNgcwele (ubhapathizo ngoMoya oNgcwele). Kusukela ngaleso sikhathi uMoya oNgcwele uhlala ngaphakathi kuwe.
Kuphela uma uMoya oNgcwele efika futhi ehlala ngaphakathi komzimba wakho ofile, ukuvuselelwa kuzokwenzeka. Indalo entsha ivukile kwabafileyo, lapho ufile enyameni futhi umoya wakho wavuswa kwabafileyo ngoJesu Kristu, ngamandla kaMoya oNgcwele. Ngaphandle kukaJesu Kristu nomsebenzi wakhe wokuhlenga, Akunakwenzeka ukuba yindalo entsha.
Lapho umoya wakho uyaphila futhi uba yindalo entsha, Isikhathi sokondla umoya wakho futhi vuselela ingqondo yakho ngeZwi likaNkulunkulu. Ukuze, Umoya wakho uzokhula avuthwe, abuse inyama yakho (umphefumulo nomzimba), Futhi uzohamba emva komoya njengendalo entsha, indodana kaNkulunkulu (kokubili abesilisa nabesifazane), Ngubani uNkulunkulu adale ngokuphelele kuJesu Kristu.
Niyohamba embusweni kaNkulunkulu ngokulalela uJesu Kristu; iZwi, Ukuba ngummeleli woMbuso kaNkulunkulu endaweni ohlala kuyo. Niyoshumayela futhi nibonakalise uMbuso kaNkulunkulu kubantu, ngokuthethelelwa kwezono, Ukubenza baphelele futhi babuyisele kuNkulunkulu, ukuze imiphefumulo eminingi isindiswe ekulahlweni okuphakade.
‘Yiba usawoti womhlaba’
