Iindaba ezikulu khulu angeze zazwisiswa ngaphandle kokuzwisisa kokuthoma umraro wephasi. Uyabona mngani wami, thina njengabantu isono.

Iindaba ezikulu khulu angeze zazwisiswa ngaphandle kokuzwisisa kokuthoma umraro wephasi. Uyabona mngani wami, thina njengabantu isono.

Boke bonile begodu bayasilela enkazimulweni kaZimu, kwamambala, akakho umuntu olungileko ephasini ohlala enza okuhle begodu ongasoze one.

Isono sethu yinto esihlukanisa noZimu, isono siyitjhefu begodu mina nawe, mnganami, sone kuZimu begodu sifanelwe kujeziswa okungapheliko esihogweni begodu kuzokufanela bona sahlulelwe nguZimu ngezono zethu ngaphandle kobana uZimu asilibalele.

Ngaphandle kobana sisindiswe ezonweni zethu nokuya esihogweni, angeze saba nokuphila okungapheliko noZimu. Umphefumulo owonako uzakufa. Kuneendawo ezimbili zokugcina ebantwini. Abanye bazokuya esihogweni, bayokujeziswa okungapheliko begodu abanye bazokuba nokuphila okungapheliko ezulwini elitjha nephasini elitjha.

Iqiniso leli lavezwa kithi ngombana eminyakeni eyizinkulungwana eyadlulako, uZimu onguMdali wendawo yoke wakhuluma nabantu "ngomsindisi" ozokubelethwa ephasini begodu aphile ipilo elungileko ngaphandle kwesono.

Kwaphrofethiwe eminyakeni eyizinkulungwane eyadlulako bona indoda le izakubulawa babantu bayo neziphathimandla, ngokuya kwemiTlolo yobuKrestu nokukholwa kwaphrofethiwe eminyakeni engamakhulu ngaphambi kobana ibelethwe bona izokubulawa begodu ibethelwe esiphambanweni begodu izokunikela ngokuphila kwayo njengehlawulo, njengomhlatjelo wezono zethu.

Iye, mnganami, lokhu kuliqiniso. Indoda le eyafa eminyakeni ema-2000 eyadlulako yahlongakala njengehlawulo yezono zephasi loke. Wafela woke umuntu esikhathini esidlulileko, samanje, nesikhathi esizako. Okutjho bona wakufela, wahlawulela izono zakho ukwenzela bona usindiswe. Wabathanda abantu bekwaba sezingeni lapho abafela khona boke esiphambanweni sokhuni.

Umsindisi lo mumuntu uJesu Krestu, oveza bona imvelaphi yakhe beyiphezulu, indoda le uJesu Krestu ethi nguZimu ngokwakhe! kuliqiniso. UZimu ngokwakhe, umdali wendawo yoke wehla ephasini njengomuntu wamambala, umuntu opheleleko noZimu opheleleko: uJesu Krestu. Owabizwa ngokuthi yindodana kaZimu.

Lokhu kwafakazelwa nabofakazi bokuzibonela abambona eminyakeni eyi-2000 eyadlulako, kutlolwe emlandwini bona uJesu Krestu wahlongakala aneminyaka engaba ma-33 ubudala begodu wabekwa ethuneni eligadwe lisiqhema samasotja amalanga ambalwa ukwenzela bona kungabi nomuntu ozokweba isidumbu sakaJesu.

Bese kuthi ngelanga lesi-3 kwafakazelwa bona uJesu Krestu wabuya ekuphileni (wavuswa kwabafileko, wanqoba ukufa.) abantu abangaba ma-500 babona uJesu Krestu avuka kwabafileko ngemva kobana afele umhlaba begodu wangcwatshwa.

Bese kuthi emalangeni ama-40 abantu abanengi babona uJesu akhuphukela ezulwini lokha nakuthenjiswa bona uJesu Krestu uzokubuya godu azokuletha iphasi elivuselelweko lapho woke amakholwa kuJesu, labo ebebanekholo kuye njengeKosi noMsindisi wabo, abafileko namkha abaphilako bazokwamukela umzimba okhazinyulisiweko nakabuyako, amakholwa ahlongakeleko nawo azokuvuswa kwabafileko, begodu abakholwako abaphilako ngesikhathi sokubuya kwakhe bazokutjhuguluka begodu bazokwamukela imizimba ephazimulisiweko begodu bazokuthabela ukuphila okungapheliko njengombana ukufa nesono nobumbi ekugcineni kuhlulwa.

Kulungile, umnganami uJesu akakafiki, kodwana uzakubuya, begodu uJesu uzokubuya msinyana. Njeke, ukulungele ukuza kwakhe? namkha uzokwahlulelwa esihogweni ngombana awukwamukeli ukulibalelwa ngalokho uJesu akwenzele khona?

Uyabona mnganami, mina nawe njengezoni angeze sazuza ukusindiswa kwethu. Kufanele siyifumane njengesipho samahhala esivela kuZimu ngokukholwa kuJesu Krestu nalokho akwenzako, ukuthi wafa ukuhlawulela izono zethu, wangcwatshwa bese wavuka kwabafileko ngokomzimba, wanqoba ukufa nokobana kuye kwaphela esingafumana ukuphila nokusindiswa okungapheliko.

Ukukholwa kuJesu akusikuvuma amaqiniso ngaye kwaphela, ukukholwa kuJesu kukuthembela kuye, kuthembele kuJesu malungana nokusindiswa, ukulibalela nokuphila okungapheliko. Uma unokukholwa kuJesu uzomlandela. "Wangena kanye kwaphela eendaweni ezicwengileko, ingasi ngeengazi zeembuzi namathole kodwana ngeengazi zakhe, ngaleyo ndlela waqinisekisa ukuhlengwa okungapheliko."

UJesu Krestu ngokwakhe wathi eminyakeni eyi-2000 eyadlulako: “Ngombana uZimu walithanda iphasi kangaka waze wanikela ngeNdodanakhe ezelwe yodwa, ukwenzela bona nanyana ngubani okholwa kiyo angabhubhi, kodwana abe nokuphila okungapheliko. Loyo okholwa kiyo akahlulelwa, ongakholwako sele ahlulelwe, ngombana akhenge akholwe ebizweni leNdodana kaZimu ezelwe yodwa.

Godu, uJesu wathembisa eminyakeni ema-2000 eyadlulako kibo boke abakholelwa kuye: "Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini, loyo ozwa ilizwi lami, begodu akholwe ongithumileko, unokuphila okungapheliko, begodu akangeni ekwahlulelweni, kodwana udlule ekufeni waya ekuphileni."

Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Lowo okholwako unokuphila okungapheliko.”

Godu, uJesu uthi kuwe namhlanjesi mnganami, 'ngilandela': "Nangabe umuntu afuna ukungilandela, kufuze azidele, athathe isiphambano sakhe, angilandele." UJesu uyindlela, iqiniso nokuphila, Akekho umuntu oza kuZimu ngaphandle kwakhe. Landela uJesu ngombana nguye kwaphela ongasindisa umphefumulo wakho.

UJesu wathi: “Mina ngingukuvuka kwabafileko nokuphila; loyo okholwa kimi uzakuphila ngitjho nanyana angafa, begodu woke umuntu ophilako begodu akholwe kimi akasoze afe. Uyakukholwa lokhu na?”

Mnganami ngombana boke bonile begodu basilela enkazimulweni kaZimu, balungiswa njengesipho ngomusa wakhe ngokuhlengwa okukuKrestu Jesu; Ngombana ngomusa nisindisiwe ngokukholwa; begodu lokho akusikho kwenu, kodwana kusipho sakaZimu; ingasi ngebanga lezenzo, ukwenzela bona kungabi nomuntu ozikhakhazisako. Ngalokho-ke phendukani nibuyele emuva, ukwenzela bona izono zenu zisulwe, ukuze kufike isikhathi sokuqabuleka esivela ebusweni beKosi.

Ngoba umvuzo wesono kukufa, kodwana isipho samahhala sakaZimu kuphila okungapheliko kuKrestu uJesu iKosi yethu. Ngalokhu ithando lakaZimu labonakaliswa kithi, ukuthi uZimu uthumele iNdodanakhe ezelwe yodwa ephasini ukwenzela bona siphile ngayo.

Kulokhu kuthando, ingasi ukuthi sithande uZimu, kodwana yena wasithanda wathumela iNdodanakhe bona ibe mhlatjelo wezono zethu. Kodwana uZimu utjengisa ithando lakhe kithi, ngokuthi sisesezizoni, uKrestu wasifela.

Ngalokho-ke, njengombana sesilungisisiwe ngeengazi zakhe, sizokusindiswa ngaye elaka lakaZimu.

UZimu nanyana angababantu aba-3 abahlukileko, uBaba, iNdodana (uJesu Krestu), noMoya oCwengileko, ungumuntu munye kwaphela, uZimu munye kwaphela ongabantu aba-3 abahlukileko (ingasi abozimu aba-3 abahlukileko) uZimu ubaba noZimu uMoya oCwengileko banguZimu ngokupheleleko, uJesu Krestu naye unguZimu ngokupheleleko nanyana naye angumuntu opheleleko njengathi, umuntu! UJesu unguZimu nomuntu ngesikhathi sinye! UJesu ungumsindisi wephasi. Mnganami alikho elinye ibizo ngaphasi kwezulu elinikelwe ebantwini ekufuze sisindiswe ngalo ngaphandle kwebizo lakaJesu Krestu.

UJesu wafela wena ukukulibalela izono zakho, wadlula ebuhlungwini obunengi nokutlhaga ukwenzela bona ngokufa kwakhe uthethelelwe begodu uqinisekiswe ukuphila okungapheliko nanyana ungafa, kuzokuba nelanga lokuvuka kwabafileko begodu kuzokuba nephasi elibuyiselweko namazulu abuyiselweko.

Ngiyakunxusa bona ukholwe kuJesu Krestu njengeKosi yakho noMsindisi wakho. Ngibawa ukholwe iindaba ezimnandi ngaphambi kokuthi kube sekwephuzile. Phenduka (phendukela esonweni uphendukele kuZimu) begodu uthembe ngokuzeleko kuJesu Krestu namhlanjesi. Kwangathi ungafunda okunengi ngoZimu begodu ufunde okunengi ngaye ngombana uyakukhathalela ("Niphosela koke ukutshwenyeka kwakho kuye, ngombana uyakukhathalela."). Landela uJesu kusukela namhlanjesi, ungalindi! Ikusasa aliqinisekisiwe! Sibawa uzizwe utjhaphulukile ukubuza nanyana ngimiphi imibuzo...
