Isivumelwano Esidala sikhombisa ubudlelwano phakathi kukaNkulunkulu nabantu Bakhe benyama, abazalwa ngenzalo kaIsrayeli. Izikhathi eziningi, sifunda ngendlela abantu bakaNkulunkulu abaqala ngayo kahle kodwa njengoba beqhubeka nendlela yabo, bawashiya amazwi kaNkulunkulu futhi abahambanga ngendlela Yakhe kodwa bahlehla futhi bamukela amasiko amaqaba nemikhuba yemilingo ngakho bavumela izinto ezimpilweni zabo nasezweni., ezaziyisinengiso kuNkulunkulu futhi zangcolisa izimpilo zabo kanye nomhlaba wabo. Lokhu kwenzeka nangenyoka yethusi esigxotsheni, eyayikhonzwa, ihlonishwe, kanye nokukhonzwa ngabantu. Ngeshwa, okufanayo nangesiphambano. Ngoba njengoba inyoka yethusi yayikhonzwa, ihlonishwe, futhi ukhonzwe abantu bakaNkulunkulu eSivumelwaneni Esidala, amaKristu amaningi akhulekela isiphambano futhi aye akhonza isiphambano eSivumelwaneni Esisha. AmaKristu asikhonza kanjani futhi asikhonza kanjani isiphambano?? Lithini iBhayibheli ngokukhulekelwa kwesiphambano?
Abantu bakaNkulunkulu bakhonza inyoka yethusi esikhundleni sikaNkulunkulu
ETestamenteni Elidala kuNumeri 21:4-9, sifunda ngesono sabantu bakaNkulunkulu, isijeziso sikaNkulunkulu, nensindiso kaNkulunkulu ngenyoka yethusi esigxotsheni (Funda futhi: Kungani inyoka yethusi yayiyisithunzi sokufa kukaJesu esiphambanweni?).
Abantu bakaNkulunkulu abazange bayishiye inyoka yethusi esigxotsheni ehlane, but they took the brass serpent with them into the promised land as a witness and a remembrance of what happened in the wilderness.
Kodwa esikhundleni senyoka yethusi esigxotsheni kwakuyoba ufakazi kubantu bakaNkulunkulu nesikhumbuzo salokho okwenzeka ehlane kubantu bakaNkulunkulu., futhi izizukulwane ezilandelayo zaziyokhunjulwa ngokuhlubuka kwabantu, isono sabo kanye nemiphumela yesono sabo, nokuthi uNkulunkulu wayiletha kanjani insindiso ngenyoka yethusi esigxotsheni, kulabo, abalalela amazwi kaNkulunkulu babuka inyoka yethusi ngakho-ke babezomesaba uNkulunkulu futhi bahlale bethembekile kuNkulunkulu futhi abantu babonga, bakhonze futhi badumise uNkulunkulu, inyoka yethusi yayikhonzwa, ehlonishwa futhi ekhonzwa ngabantu.
Abantu bashisa impepho enyokeni yethusi esigxotsheni, okwakuthiwa nguNehushitani, ngalokho le nto yaba yisithombe kubantu; abantu benza okubi emehlweni kaNkulunkulu.
U-Hizkia wabhubhisa inyoka yethusi
Yena (incwadi) wasusa izindawo eziphakemeyo, and brake the images, futhi ugawule izihlathi, wayichoboza inyoka yethusi uMose ayeyenzile: + ngoba kuze kube yilezo zinsuku abantwana bakwa-Israyeli babeyishisela impepho: wayibiza ngokuthi uNehushitani. Wathembela kuJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli; + kangangokuthi ngemva kwakhe kwakungekho onjengaye phakathi kwawo wonke amakhosi akwaJuda, nanoma yibaphi ababengaphambi kwakhe. Ngoba wanamathela eNkosini, kasukanga ekumlandeleni, kodwa wagcina imilayo yakhe, uJehova ayala ngakho uMose (2 Amakhosi 18:4-6)
Inkosi uHizkia yahamba ngokulalela uNkulunkulu ezindleleni Zakhe futhi yagcina imiyalo Yakhe, uJehova ayala ngakho uMose, ngalokho uHezekiya wenza okulungile emehlweni kaJehova, njengoyise uDavide.
U-Hizkia wabhekana nokukhonza izithombe namasiko namasiko obuhedeni kanye nemikhuba yokulumba yabantu.. U-Hizkia wasusa indawo ephakemeyo, waphula izithombe futhi wagawula izihlathi, wayiphula inyoka yethusi, okwenziwa nguMose, ngezicucu, ukuze bangabi nakushisela inyoka yethusi impepho, bakhonze, bakhonze inyoka yethusi.
Ubungacabanga, ukuthi abantu bafunde emlandweni, kodwa izikhathi eziningi akunjalo. Okungenani, hhayi nomuntu omdala wenyama, ongeyena owomoya. Ngoba njengoba inyoka yethusi yayiyinto ekhonzwayo futhi yaba yisithixo kubantu, ngokufanayo nesiphambano sesiphenduke into ekhonzwayo nesithixo kumaKristu amaningi.
AmaKristu amaningi akhulekela isiphambano esikhundleni sikaJesu Kristu
Kuyo yonke le minyaka, kuhlanganise nale minyaka, amaKristu amaningi enze ngendlela efanayo neyabantu bakwa-Israyeli futhi bakhulekela isiphambano (into) Esikhundleni sikaNkulunkulu. Kodwa isiphambano singase singalokothi sibe into ekhulekelwayo. Isiphambano singase singabe yisithixo ezimpilweni zamaKrestu.
Esikhundleni sokudumisa nokukhulekela uJesu Kristu, isiphambano (njengento) uyahlonishwa futhi uyakhonzwa.
Isiphambano sikhulekelwa ngokuguqa nokukhuleka phambi kwesiphambano, sigubha isiphambano, bezenzela uphawu lwesiphambano, eqabula isiphambano, egqoke isiphambano njengomhlobiso, ukusebenzisa isiphambano njengentelezi ukuze uvikeleke, ukufulathela ububi namandla amademoni nokukhipha amademoni nokukhulula abantu, njll.
AmaKristu amaningi aye akhonza isiphambano futhi ngokuvamile aba nokholo olwengeziwe esiphambanweni (into ebonakalayo) futhi nikulindele esiphambanweni (into), kunokuba nokholo kuJesu Kristu kanye nomsebenzi Wakhe wokuhlenga futhi uwulindele Kuye.
Kodwa isiphambano asinawo amandla futhi singase singalokothi sibe into ekhulekelwayo nesithixo.
Abantu abaningi babethelwe eziphambanweni phakathi neminyaka futhi akukho okukhethekile okwenzeka nganoma yimuphi omunye wabo. Babethelwa esiphambanweni bafa. Kunesenzakalo esisodwa kuphela esibe nomthelela esintwini futhi senza ushintsho endalweni futhi leso kwaba ukubethelwa kukaJesu Kristu., iNdodana kaNkulunkulu, nomsebenzi Wakhe wokuhlenga.
Ngakho-ke uJesu Kristu kufanele akhulekelwe, ihlonishwe, futhi eulogized futhi isiphambano kumele kukhunjulwe, lokhu kusho ukuthi umsebenzi wokuhlenga esiphambanweni kufanele ukhunjulwe, ngoba igazi likaJesu Kristu nomsebenzi Wakhe wokuhlenga unamandla.
Ukushunyayelwa kwesiphambano
Ngoba uKristu kangithumanga ukuthi ngibhabhathize, kodwa ukushumayela ivangeli: kungeyisikho ngokuhlakanipha kwamazwi, funa isiphambano sikaKristu senziwe ize. Ngokuba ukushunyayelwa kwesiphambano kwababhubhayo kungubuwula; kodwa kithina esisindiswayo kungamandla kaNkulunkulu (1 AbaseKorinte 1:17-18)
As many as desire to make a fair shew in the flesh, bayanicindezela ukuba nisokwe; kuphela funa bazingelwe ngenxa yesiphambano sikaKristu. Ngokuba nalabo abasokile abawugcini umthetho; kodwa ngifisa ukuthi nisokwe, ukuze bazincome enyameni yenu. Kodwa uNkulunkulu makube kude nami ukuba ngiziqhayise, sindisa esiphambanweni seNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu, ngaye izwe libethelwe kimi, nami emhlabeni. Ngokuba kuKristu Jesu ukusoka akulutho, nokungasoki, kodwa isidalwa esisha (KwabaseGalathiya 6:12-15)
Yilokho uPawulu ayekusho, when he spoke about the preaching of the cross. UPawulu wayengasigqoki isiphambano futhi engasisebenzisi isiphambano, kodwa uPawulu washumayela isiphambano sikaKristu.
UPawulu akazange akhulume ngesiphambano njengento yokukhonzwa nokukhonza izithombe, kodwa uPawulu wakhuluma ngalokho okwenzeka esiphambanweni, nokuthi umsebenzi wokuhlenga kaJesu Kristu esiphambanweni ungalokothi ukhohlwe noma uphele. Ngoba ivangeli likaJesu Kristu, okungamandla kaNkulunkulu, igxile emsebenzini wokuhlenga kaJesu Kristu esiphambanweni.
Umhlatshelo kaJesu esiphambanweni nasegazini lakhe, awuchithela isintu, iseceleni kokudalwa kwezulu nomhlaba, nakho konke okungaphakathi, umsebenzi omkhulu kaNkulunkulu.
Kwenzekani esiphambanweni, ukuthi uJesu waba kanjani esikhundleni sesintu esinesono futhi wathatha zonke izono nobubi besintu phezu Kwakhe futhi wenziwa isono., futhi wathwala isijeziso sesono, okungukufa, enyameni Yakhe, ukuze wonke umuntu okholwa nguJesu Kristu futhi azalwe kabusha kuye (ukufa kwenyama kanye lokuvuka kukamoya ekufeni) babeyohlanzwa ngegazi Lakhe kuzo zonke izono zabo nobubi babo futhi babuyisane noNkulunkulu, umcimbi obaluleke kakhulu esintwini
Ukube amaKristu ayengawuqonda umsebenzi kaKristu wokuhlenga, babengabe besathula, kodwa babeyoshumayela iqiniso, ukuze imiphefumulo eminingi ikhululwe ekufeni futhi isindiswe esihogweni futhi ibuyisane noNkulunkulu.
