IVangeli - Izindaba Ezinhle!

Wonke umuntu unombono wokulungile nokungalungile, futhi wonke umuntu wenze okuthile okungalungile—ngisho nasemqondweni wakhe. “Ukuphambuka kungumuntu,” kusho isaga esaziwayo. Wonke umuntu udumaze umngane, wephule isithembiso, walimaza imizwa yomunye ngesikhathi esithile. Wonke umuntu uyayazi imizwa yecala. Ngakho abantu abafuni ukuba nento yokwenza noNkulunkulu. Abafuni usuku lokwahlulela ngoba bayazi ukuthi ngeke bame phambi kukaNkulunkulu ngonembeza omsulwa. Bayazi ukuthi kufanele bamlalele, kodwa futhi bayazi ukuthi abazange bamlalele. Banamahloni futhi bazizwa benecala.

Isikweletu sabo singahlengwa kanjani? Indlela yokuhlanza ingqondo? “Ukuthethelela kungokwaphezulu,” kuphetha igama elingukhiye. UNkulunkulu ngokwakhe uyothethelela. Abantu abaningi bayasazi lesi sisho, kodwa abakholwa ukuthi uNkulunkulu unobunkulunkulu ngokwanele ukuba anikeze iSüukuthethelela. Usazizwa unecala. Basasaba ukubonakala kukaNkulunkulu noSuku Lokwahlulela.

Kodwa uNkulunkulu uye wabonakala ngaphambili - kumuntu uJesu Kristu. Akezanga ukuzolahla kepha ukusindisa. Waletha umlayezo wentethelelo futhi wafa esiphambanweni ukuze aqinisekise ukuthi singathethelelwa.

Umlayezo kaJesu, umyalezo wesiphambano, uyizindaba ezinhle kunoma ubani ozizwa enecala. UJesu, indoda yaphezulu, wazithathela isijeziso sethu. Intethelelo izofika kubo bonke abantu abathobekile ngokwanele ukuba bakholwe ivangeli likaJesu Kristu.

Siyazidinga lezi zindaba ezinhle. Ivangeli likaKristu liletha ukuthula kwengqondo, injabulo, kanye nokunqoba komuntu siqu. Ivangeli leqiniso, izindaba ezinhle, ivangeli elashunyayelwa nguKristu. Abaphostoli nabo bashumayela ivangeli elifanayo: UJesu Kristu, ebethelwe esiphambanweni (1. AbaseKorinte 2,2), uJesu Kristu kumaKristu, ithemba lenkazimulo (Kolose 1,27), ukuvuka kwabafileyo, umyalezo wethemba nensindiso yesintu oyivangeli lombuso kaNkulunkulu.

UNkulunkulu uthume ibandla lakhe ukuba limemezele lesi sigijimiünoMoya oNgcwele ukufeza lowo msebenzi. Encwadini eya kwabaseKorinte, uPawulu uchaza ivangeli uJesu alinikeza ibandla lakhe: “Kepha ngikwenza kininaüyena owazisa ivangeli engalishumayeza nina, enalamukela nani, enimi kuye nani, eniyakusindiswa ngalo, uma nibambelela kulokho enganishumayeza khona, uma ningakholwanga ize. Ngokuba ngehlisela kini ngaphezu kwakho konke engakwamukela nami, ukuthi uKristu esikhundleni sethuübafa njengokwemibhalo; nokuthi wembelwa, nokuthi wavuswa kwabafileyo ngosuku lwesithathu njengokwemibhalo; nokuthi wabonakala kuKhefase, kamuva kwabayishumi nambili. Ngemva kwalokho wavela ngaphezu kuka-füamakhulu amahlanu brübonke kanyekanye, abaningi kubo abasekhona kuze kube manje, kepha abanye balele. Ngemva kwalokhu wabonakala kuJakobe, kamuva wabonakala kubo bonke abaphostoli; kodwa ekugcineni kwabo bonke, kwangathi kusekubizweni, wabonakala nakimi.”1. AbaseKorinte 15,1-8 Eberfeld Bible).

UPawulu “ngaphezu kwakho konke” ugcizelela ukuthi ngokomBhalo uJesu unguMesiya noma uKristu, ukuthi ungoweNkosi yethu.ünden wafa, wangcwatshwa wavuka futhi. Ugcizelela nokuthi uma umuntu ekungabaza, abaningi bangakufakazela ukuvuka kukaKristu.

UPawule ukucacisa ukuthi yivangeli “eliyosindiswa ngalo nani”. Umgomo wethu kufanele, njengoPawulu, ukudlulisela lokho esikutholile nalokho “okungaphezu kwakho konke” kwabanye.

Lokho esikutholile, futhi ngenxa yalokho okumelwe sikudlulisele, kuvumelana nalokho uPawulu nabanye abaphostoli abakuthola—okungaphezu kwakho konke okunye—ukuthi “uKristu webandla lethu.übafa njengokwemibhalo; nokuthi wembelwa, nokuthi wavuswa kwabafileyo ngosuku lwesithathu njengokwemibhalo…”.

Zonke ezinye izimfundiso zeBhayibheli zisekelwe kula maqiniso ayisisekelo. INdodana kaNkulunkulu kuphela eyayingenza iSüefa, futhi ngenxa yokuthi wakwenza lokho futhi wavuka kwabafileyo, singabhekana ngokuqiniseka okungenakunyakaziswa ukubuya Kwakhe kanye nefa lethu lokuphila okuphakade.

Kungakho uJohane wakwazi ukubhala: “Uma samukela ubufakazi babantu, nokho ubufakazi bukaNkulunkulu bukhulu kakhulu, ngokuba lokhu kungubufakazi bukaNkulunkulu, ukuthi wafakaza ngeNdodana yakhe. Lowo okholwa eNdodaneni kaNkulunkulu unalobu bufakazi ngaphakathi kwakhe. kholwa uNkulunkulu, umenza uLügnner ngokuba akakholwa ngubufakazi uNkulunkulu abunikeza ngeNdodana yakhe.

“Futhi lobu yibufakazi bokuthi uNkulunkulu usinike ukuphila okuphakade, nalokho kuphila kuseNdodaneni yakhe. Onayo indodana unokuphila; ongenayo iNdodana kaNkulunkulu akanakho ukuphila” (1. UJohane 5,9- 12).

Ivangeli elashunyayelwa nguJesu

Abanye bangakwazi, kubonakala sengathi, üukuthukuthela ngesiphrofetho seBhayibheli kodwa ukuthola kunzima ukuchaza für ukukhuthaza isigijimi esiyinhloko seBhayibheli - insindiso ngoJesu Kristu! UNkulunkulu unikeze amaKristu isipho esiyigugu kunazo zonke, nesibopho kuwo sokudayisela abanyeünokuthi bangasithola kanjani lesi sipho!

Echaza umsebenzi wabaphostoli enduneni yekhulu uKorneliyu, uPetru wathi: “Futhi [uJesu] wasiyala ukuba sishumayele kubantu, sifakaze ukuthi ubekwe nguNkulunkulu ukuba abe ngumahluleli wabaphilayo nabafileyo. bonke bafakaza abaprofethi ukuthi ngegama lakhe bonke abakholwa kuye ukuthethelelwa kweNkosiükufanele bamukele” (IzE 10,42-enye).

Lona umlayezo oyinhloko; izindaba ezinhle ezembulelwa abaphostoli zaziwumyalezo oyinhloko wabo bonke abaprofethi—ukuthi uNkulunkulu uJesu Kristu wayengumahluleli üeyenziwe ngabaphilayo nabafileyo nabo bonke abakholwa nguye, küintethelelo ngegama lakhe!

Iqiniso Eliphakathi

ULuka wabhala ukuthi uJesu wayeno-Jünger, ngaphambi nje kokuba anyukele esibhakabhakeni, enkabeni yeGüUbuqiniso besigijimi sakhe: “Wayesevula izingqondo zabo ukuba baqonde imiBhalo, wathi kubo: “Kulotshiwe kanjalo ukuthi uKristu uyohlupheka futhi avuke kwabafileyo ngosuku lwesithathu, futhi ukuphenduka kuyoshunyayelwa egameni lakhe. [Ukuphenduka] ukuze athethelelwe u-Sünaphakathi kwabantu bonke. Qala eJerusalema ube khonaür ofakazi” (Luk. 24,45-enye).

Yini okufanele abaphostoli bayiqonde ngalokho okuqukethwe imiBhalo Engcwele lapho uJesu ebanikeza incazelo yayo?ür ivuliwe? Ngamanye amazwi, yini uJesu athi yiqiniso eliwumgogodla nelibaluleke kakhulu okumele liqondwe emibhalweni ye-OT?

Ukuthi uKristu uyohlupheka futhi avuke kwabafileyo ngosuku lwesithathu, futhi lokho kuphenduka ukuze athethelelwe Süzonke izizwe ziyoshunyayelwa egameni lakhe!

“Futhi insindiso ayikho ngomunye, futhi alikho futhi elinye igama phansi kwezulu elinikiwe kubantu esimelwe ukusindiswa ngalo,” kuqhuba uPetru (IzEnzo. 4,12).

Kodwa kuthiwani ngevangeli lombuso kaNkulunkulu? UJesu akazange yini ashumayele izindaba ezinhle zombuso kaNkulunkulu? natüngokuqinisekile!

Ingabe ivangeli lombuso kaNkulunkulu lihlukile kulokho okwashiwo uPawulu, uPetru noJohane üwashumayela ngensindiso kuJesu Kristu? akunakwenzeka!

Masiqaphele ukuthi ukungena embusweni kaNkulunkulu kuyinsindiso. Ukusindiswa nokungena embusweni kaNkulunkulu kuyafana! Ukuthola ukuphila okuphakade kuyefana nokuthola insindiso [noma insindiso] ngoba insindiso ifana nokukhululwa ku-S obulalayo.üukuphela.

KuJesu kukhona ukuphila—ukuphila okuphakade. Ukuphila okuphakade kudinga intethelelo kaSüukuphela. Futhi intethelelo ye-Süende, noma ukulungisiswa, kuza kuphela ngokukholwa kuJesu Kristu.

UJesu uyikho kokubili uMahluleli noMsindisi. Futhi uyinkosi yombuso. Ivangeli lombuso kaNkulunkulu liyivangeli lensindiso kuJesu Kristu. UJesu nabaphostoli Bakhe bashumayela umyalezo ofanayo—uJesu Kristu uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu futhi ukuphela kwendlela yokuzuza insindiso, ukuhlengwa, ukuphila okuphakade, nokungena embusweni kaNkulunkulu.

Futhi uma izinzwa zomuntu zivuleka ukuze akwazi ukuqonda iziprofetho zeTestamente Elidala, njengoba uJesu avula ukuqonda kubaphostoli (Luka 2)4,45), kuyacaca ukuthi umyalezo obalulekile wabaprofethi kwakunguJesu Kristu (IzE 10,43).

Asiqhubeke. UJohane wabhala: “Okholwa eNdodaneni unokuphila okuphakade. üphezu kwakhe” (Joh 3,36). Ulimi olucacile lolu!

UJesu wathi: “Mina ngiyindlela neqiniso nokuphila; akakho oza kuBaba ngaphandle kwami” ( Johane 14,6). Esikudingayo Ukuze Sikuqonde NgeZwi LikaNkulunkulu müukuthi ngaphandle kukaJesu Kristu umuntu ngeke eze kuBaba, noma azi uNkulunkulu, noma azuze ifa lokuphila okuphakade, noma angene embusweni kaNkulunkulu.

Encwadini yakhe eya kwabaseKolose, uPawulu wabhala: “Bongani ngenjabulo kuBaba owaniphaülifanelekele ifa labangcwele ekukhanyeni. Wasisindisa emandleni obumnyama, wasidlulisela embusweni weNdodana yakhe ethandekayo, lapho sinokuhlengwa khona, okungukuthethelelwa kukaS.ünd" (Kolose 1,12- 14).

Phawula ukuthi ifa labangcwele, umbuso wokukhanya, umbuso weNdodana, ukuhlengwa nokuthethelelwa kukaS.üugqoke ingubo engenamthungo yezwi leqiniso, ivangeli.

Evesini 4 uPawulu ukhuluma “ngokholo [lwabaseKolose] kuKristu Jesu, nothando eninalo ngabo bonke abangcwele.” Ubhala ukuthi ukholo nothando luvela “ethembeni...ür ilungele wena ezulwini. Nezwa ngaye ngaphambili ngezwi leqiniso, ivangeli elafika kini..." (amavesi 5-6) Futhi ivangeli liwumgogodla wethemba lensindiso yaphakade embusweni kaNkulunkulu ngokukholwa nguJesu Kristu, uMninimandla onke. iNdodana kaNkulunkulu, esahlengwa ngayo.

Emavesini 21-23 uPawulu uyaqhubeka, “Nani enanikade ningabafokazi nezitha ezenzweni ezimbi, usenihlawulele manje ngokufa komzimba wakhe ofayo, ukuze anibeke phambi kwakhe ningcwele, ningenasici, ningenabala; uhlala ekukholweni kuphela, stüfuthi qinani, ningalilahli ithemba levangeli enalizwa, elishunyayelwa kukho konke okudaliweyo okuphansi kwezulu. mina Pawulu ngibe yinceku yakhe.

Emavesini 25 kuya ku-29 uPawulu udlulela phambili evangelini i11 inkonzo yakhe ayithunyiwe kanye nenhloso yakhe yokuyithengisa.üthola. Wabhala: “Ngibe-yizinceku [zebandla] ngesikhundla uNkulunkulu anginike sona, ukuze ngishumayele izwi lakhe ngokucebile, yebo imfihlakalo ebifihliwe kusukela kudala nezizukulwane, kepha manje yambuliwe kuye. abangcwele, uNkulunkulu athanda ukubazisa kubo ingcebo yenkazimulo yaleyo mfihlakalo phakathi kwabezizwe, enguKristu phakathi kwenu, ithemba lenkazimulo.üsiyala futhi siyala abantu bonke futhi sifundisa bonke ngokuhlakanipha konke, ukuze senze wonke umuntu aphelele kuKristu. dafürmünami ngiyazabalaza, ngibambene ngamandla osebenza ngamandla kimi.

Ivangeli limayelana nani

Lonke ivangeli ngoJesu Kristu. Ikhuluma ngobuyena kanye nenkonzo yakhe njengeNdodana kaNkulunkulu (Joh. 3,18) njengomahluleli wabaphilayo nabafileyo (2. UThimothi 4,1), njengoKristu (Izenzo 17,3), njengoMsindisi (2. UThim. 1:10), njengomphristi omkhulu (KumaHebheru 4,14), njengoba Füisipikha (1. UJohannes 2,1), njengeNkosi yamakhosi noMbusi wababusi ( IsAmbulo 17:14 ), njengezibulo phakathi kweüdern (Roma 8,29), njengomngane (Johane 15,14-enye).

Kumayelana naye njengomalusi wemiphefumulo yethu (1. uPeter  2,25), njengeWundlu likaNkulunkulu, iSüususa ukuphela kwezwe (Joh. 1,29), njengoba füsanikela ngemvana yePhasika (1. AbaseKorinte 5,7), njengomfanekiso kaNkulunkulu ongabonakali nanjengezibulo ngaphambi kwayo yonke indalo (Kol.1,15), njengenhloko yebandla nanjengesiqalo nanjengezibulo kwabafileyo ( ivesi 18 ), njengokubonakalisa inkazimulo kaNkulunkulu nomfanekiso wesimo sakhe ( Heb. 1,3), njengomambuli kaBaba (Math. 11,27), njengendlela, iqiniso nokuphila (Johane 14,6), njengoba Tür (Joh10,7).

Ivangeli limayelana noKristu njengomqalisi nomphelelisi wokholo lwethu (KumaHeberu 1 Kor2,2), njengombusi üMayelana nendalo kaNkulunkulu (Isambulo 3,14), njengowokuqala nowokugcina, isiqalo nesiphetho (IsAmbulo 22,13), njengomsizi (Jer. 23,5), kunetshe legumbi (1. UPetrus 2,6) njengamandla kaNkulunkulu nokuhlakanipha kukaNkulunkulu (1. AbaseKorinte 1,24), kunomuntu omdalaüizidingo zezizwe zonke (Hagayi 2,7).

Imayelana noKristu, ufakazi othembekile noqinisile (IsAmb 3,14), indlalifa yakho konke (Heb. 1,2), uphondo lwensindiso ( Luk 1,69), ukukhanya kwezwe ( Joh 8,12), isinkwa esiphilayo (Joh. 6,51), impande kaJese (Isa. 11,10), insindiso yethu (Luk. 2,30), ilanga lokulunga (Mal. 3,20), izwi lokuphila (1. Johane 1:1), iNdodana kaNkulunkulu yamiswa ngamandla ngokuvuka kwayo kwabafileyo (Rom. 1,4) - njalonjalo.

UPawulu wabhala: “Asikho esinye isisekelo esingabeka, kuphela leso esibekiweyo, esinguJesu Kristu.”1. AbaseKorinte 3,11). UJesu Kristu uyingqikithi, ingqikithi, isisekelo sevangeli. Besingashumayela kanjani enye into ngaphandle kokuphikisa iBhayibheli?

UJesu wathi ngaleso sikhathi kuFüAmaJuda athi: “Nihlola imiBhalo, nicabanga ukuthi ninokuphila okuphakade kuyo, futhi nguye ofakaza ngami, kodwa anifuni ukuza kimi ukuze nibe nokuphila.” ( Joh. 5,39-enye).

umyalezo wensindiso

Umlayezo wokuthengisa amaKrestuüababiziweyo kumayelana nensindiso, okungukuthi, ukuphila okuphakade embusweni kaNkulunkulu. Insindiso yaphakade noma umbuso kaNkulunkulu ungafinyelelwa kuphela ngoTür, okuwukuphela kwendlela yeqiniso—uJesu Kristu. Uyinkosi yalowo mbuso.

UJohane wabhala: “Lowo ophika iNdodana akanaye uYise; ovuma iNdodana unaye noYise.”1. UJohannes 2,23). Umphostoli uPawulu wabhalela uThimothewu: “Ngokuba munye uNkulunkulu, munye nomlamuleli phakathi kukaNkulunkulu nabantu, umuntu uKristu Jesu, owazinikela embusweni wakhe.ükonke kube yinsindiso, ukuze lokhu kushunyayelwe ngesikhathi sakho.”1. Thimothewu 2:5-6).

NgesiHebheru 2,3 siyaxwayiswa: "... thina siyakuphunyuka kanjani, uma singanaki ukusindiswa okungaka okwaqala ngokushunyayelwa kweNkosi, kwaqinisekiswa phakathi kwethu yilabo abayizwayo na?" Ivangeli lensindiso lamenyezelwa nguJesu uqoboüfuthi kwakuwumyalezo kaJesu uqobo ovela kuYise.

UJohane wabhala phansi lokho uNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe üwafakaza ngeNdodana yakhe: “Yilobu ubufakazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu usinike ukuphila okuphakade, nalokhu kuphila kuseNdodaneni yakhe. Onayo iNdodana unokuphila; ongenayo iNdodana kaNkulunkulu akanakho ukuphila.”1. UJohannes 5,11-enye).

KwaJohannes 5,22 kuze kufike ku-23, uJohane uphinde agcizelele ukubaluleka kwendodana: “Ngokuba uyise akahluleli muntu, kodwa ukwahlulela yonke indodana. üenikelwa ukuze bonke badumise iNdodana njengoba behlonipha uYise. Ongayihloniphi iNdodana akamhloniphi uYise oyithumileyo.” Kungakho iBandla lishumayela njalonjalo üMayelana noJesu Kristu! U-Isaya waprofetha, “Ngakho-ke uthi uNkulunkulu uRen: Bhekani, ngiyakubeka eSiyoni itshe elivivinyiwe, itshe legumbi eliyigugu, lesisekelo. Yilowo nalowo okholwayo akayikujabha” ( Isaya 2 )8,16 Isib).

Njengoba sihamba empilweni entsha esibizelwe kuyo kuJesu Kristu, sithembela Kuye njengendawo yethu eqinisekile futhi sithemba nsuku zonke ukubuya Kwakhe ngenkazimulo namandla, singabheka phambili efeni lethu laphakade ngethemba nokuqiniseka.

Ucingo lokuphila ikusasa lapha nanamuhla

Kepha emva kokuthunjwa kukaJohane, uJesu wafika eGalile, washumayela ivangeli likaNkulunkulu, wathi: “Isikhathi sifikile.üfuthi umbuso kaNkulunkulu ususondele. Phendukani, nikholwe yivangeli!” ( Marku 1:14-15 )

Lelivangeli elilethwa nguJesu “liyizindaba ezinhle”—umlayezo onamandla, oguqula impilo noguqulayo. IVangeli üI-Berfühhayi kuphela ukuzwa futhi ukuguqula, kodwa ekugcineni kuba bestüenze udokotela amxosheüsinda.

Ivangeli “lingamandla kaNkulunkulu kube yinsindiso kubo bonke abakholwayo” ( Roma 1:16 ). Ivangeli liyisimemo sikaNkulunkulu kithi ukuthi siphile ezingeni elehluke ngokuphelele füyizwa. Izindaba ezinhle ukuthi sinefa eliyoba elethu ngokugcwele lapho uKristu ebuya. Kuyisimemo futhi seqiniso elingokomoya eliqinisayo esingaba ngelethu manje.

UPawulu ubiza ivangeli ngokuthi “ivangeli likaKristu” (1. KwabaseKorinte 9:12), “ivangeli likaNkulunkulu” ( Roma 15:16 ) “nevangeli lokuthula” ( Efesu 6:15 ). Eqala kuJesu, uqala ukuthi jüechaza kabusha umbono wamaNdiya ngombuso kaNkulunkulu, egxile ekubalulekeni kwendawo yonke yokufika kokuqala kukaKristu.

UJesu owathi üUPawulu ufundisa ukuthi lowo owayehamba emigwaqweni enothuli yaseJudiya naseGalile manje unguKristu ovusiwe, ohlezi ngakwesokunene sikaNkulunkulu futhi “uyinhloko yawo wonke amandla neziphathimandla” (Ko 2:10).

NgokukaPawulu, ukufa nokuvuka kukaJesu Kristu kuza “kuqala” evangelini; bayisihluthuleloüthengisa izehlakalo ngohlelo lukaNkulunkulu (1. KwabaseKorinte 15:1-11. Ivangeli liyizindaba ezinhle für abampofu nabacindezelweüikhithi. Indaba inenhloso. Ekugcineni, ilungelo liyonqoba, hhayi amandla.

Isandla esigwaziwe sine üEhlulwe Isibhakela Sezikhali. Umbuso wobubi uthatha indawo yombuso kaJesu Kristu, uhlelo lwezinto amaKristu asevele abhekana nazo ngokwengxenye.

UPawulu wasigcizelela lesi sici sevangeliüNgokuphathelene nabaseKolose: “Bongani ngokuthokoza uBaba owaniphayoülifanelekele ifa labangcwele ekukhanyeni. Wasisindisa emandleni obumnyama, wasidlulisela embusweni weNdodana yakhe ethandekayo, lapho sinokuhlengwa khona, okungukuthethelelwa kukaS.ünd" (Kolose 1,12-enye).

FüKuwo wonke amaKristu ivangeli liyinto engokoqobo nekusasaüithemba elihle. UKristu ovukile oyiNkosi üCishe isikhathi, indawo nakho konke okwenzeka ezansi lapha, umlwi für amaKristu. Owakhushulelwa ezulwini ungumthombo wamandla okhona yonke indawo (Kwabase-Efesu 3,20-enye).

Izindaba ezinhle ukuthi uJesu Kristu wanqoba zonke izithiyo empilweni Yakhe yasemhlabeni üusenqobile. Indlela yesiphambano iyindlela enzima kodwa enqobayo yokungena embusweni kaNkulunkulu. Kungakho uPawulu angafingqa ivangeli ngamafuphi, “Ngokuba ngacabanga ukuthi fünginelungelo lokungazi lutho phakathi kwenu ngaphandle kukaJesu Kristu yedwa, obethelwe esiphambanweni.”1. AbaseKorinte 2,2).

Ukuguqulwa okukhulu

Lapho uJesu ebonakala eGalile futhi eshumayela ivangeli ngobuqotho, wayelindele impendulo. Ulindele nempendulo kithi namuhla.

Kodwa isimemo sikaJesu sokungena embusweni asizange sibanjwe nje. Ubizo lukaJesu füumbuso kaNkulunkulu wawunezibonakaliso nezimangaliso okwenza izwe elalihlupheka ngaphansi kombuso wamaRoma lavuka laqaphela.

Lesi esinye sezizathu ezenza uJesu acacise ukuthi wayesho ukuthini ngombuso kaNkulunkulu. AmaJuda esikhathi sikaJesu ayelindele uFüowayezobuyisela esizweni sakhe inkazimulo yezinsuku zikaDavide noSolomoniüumhlaba. Kodwa isigijimi sikaJesu “sasishintsha ngokuphindwe kabili,” njengoba kubhala isazi sase-Oxford u-NT Wright. Okokuqala, wamukela ukulindela okuvamile ukuthi u-jüI-Indian superstate ilahla ijoka lamaRoma würde, futhi wamenza into ehluke ngokuphelele. Waphendula ithemba elithandwayo lenkululeko yezombangazwe laba umlayezo wensindiso yokomoya: ivangeli!

"Umbuso kaNkulunkulu ususondele, wayebonakala ethi, kodwa akunjengoba wawucabanga" ( NT Wright, Who Was Jesus?, p. 98).

UJesu washaqisa abantu ngemiphumela yezindaba zakhe ezinhle. “Kepha abaningi abokuqala bayakuba-ngabokugcina, nabokugcina babe ngabokuqala” (Mathewu 19,30).

"Kuyoba khona ukukhala nokugedla amazinyo," esho ku-j wakheüAbantu baseNdiya, “lapho nibona u-Abrahama, no-Isaka, noJakobe, nabo bonke abaprofethi embusweni kaNkulunkulu, kodwa nina nikhishelwe ngaphandle” (Luka 13:28).

Isidlo sakusihlwa esikhulu saba fükonke lapho (Luk. 14,16-24). Ngisho nabezizwe bamenywa embusweni kaNkulunkulu. Futhi umzuzwana wawungashintshile.

Lo mprofethi waseNazaretha wayebonakala enesikhathi esiningi für ukuba nabangenalungelo—abanochoko, kanye noKrüukuphonsela abathelisi abahahayo - futhi ngezinye izikhathi ngisho für abacindezeli bamaRoma abazondwayoücker.

Izindaba ezinhle ezalethwa uJesu zafeza konke okwakulindelwe, ngisho nalezo zikaJüngo (Luk. 9,51-56). Ngokuphindaphindiwe uJesu wathi umbuso owawubalindele esikhathini esizayo wawususebenza ngamandla. Ngemva kwesenzakalo esivusa amadlingozi, wathi: “Kodwa uma ngikhipha omoya ababi ngeminwe kaNkulunkulu, khona-ke umbuso kaNkulunkulu usufikile phezu kwenu.” (Lk. 11,20). Ngamanye amazwi, abantu ababona inkonzo kaJesu babhekana nesimo samanje sesikhathi esizayo. UJesu waguqula okulindelwe okuvamile ekhanda labo okungenani ngezindlela ezintathu:

1. UJesu wafundisa izindaba ezinhle ukuthi umbuso kaNkulunkulu uyisipho—ukubusa kukaNkulunkulu okwaletha ukuphulukiswa. UJesu wasungula “umnyaka womusa weNkosi” (Luk 4,19; Isaya 61,1-2). Kodwa "okuvunyiwe" kuReich kwakuyi-Müabahluphekayo nabasindwayo, abampofu nezinxibi, abantwana abayizihlubuki nabathelisi abaphendukayo, izifebe eziphendukayo kanye neziphambeko zomphakathi. für izimvu ezimnyama nezimvu ezilahlekile ngokomoya wazibiza ngokuthi ungumalusi wazo.
2. Izindaba ezinhle zikaJesu futhi für abantu ababezimisele ukuphendukela kuNkulunkulu ngokuhlanzwa okubuhlungu kokuphenduka okuqotho. Laba abaphenduka ngobuqotho uSüngaphansi wükuNkulunkulu omkhulu züthola ubaba omkhulu, ehlola umkhathizwe ukuze abone amadodana namadodakazi akhe azulazulayo, futhi awabone lapho “esekude” ( Luka 15,20).Izindaba ezinhle zevangeli zazithi noma ubani osho ngenhliziyo ukuthi, “Nkulunkulu, makube kimi Süyiba nomusa” (Luka 18,13) i-tmd isho ngobuqotho, ngoNkulunkulu mitfüukuzwakala wüumhlaba. Ngaso sonke isikhathi “Celani, nizakuphiwa; funani, lizathola; ngqongqothani, lizavulelwa” (Lk. 11,9). FüKulabo abakholwayo futhi baphenduka ezindleleni zezwe, lezi kwakuyizindaba ezinhle kakhulu ababengazizwa.
3. Ivangeli likaJesu lalisho nokuthi akukho okungavimba ukunqoba kombuso uJesu ayewulethile - noma ngabe wawubukeka uphambene. Lo mbuso wüwahlangabezana nokumelana okubuhlungu, okungenasihawu, kodwa ekugcineni würd kuyo üBernatüamandla okunqoba nenkazimulo. UKristu wathi uJ wakheü“Kepha nxa iNdodana yomuntu iza ngenkazimulo yayo nezingelosi zonke ezingcwele kanye nayo, khona-ke iyakuhlala esihlalweni sayo senkazimulo, zibuthelwe phambi kwayo izizwe zonke, ibahlukanise omunye komunye, njengokuba umalusi ehlukanisa. izimvu zihlukaniswe ezimbuzini” (Math. 25,31-enye).

Ngakho-ke izindaba ezinhle zikaJesu zazinokungezwani okunamandla phakathi “kwabavele bekhona” kanye “nabangakabi”. Ivangeli lombuso lalibhekisela ekubuseni kukaNkulunkulu manje—“izimpumputhe ziyabona, nezinyonga ziyahamba, abanochoko bayahlanjululwa, nezithulu ziyezwa, abafileyo bayavuswa, nabampofu bayashunyayezwa ivangeli.” (Math. 11,5). Kodwa umbuso "wawungakafiki" lapho ngomqondo wokuthi impumelelo yawo epheleleükuseza. Ukuqonda iVangeli kusho ukubamba lesi sici esikabili: ngakolunye uhlangothi ubukhona obuthenjisiwe beNkosi esivele iphila phakathi kwabantu bayo kanti ngakolunye uhlangothi ukubuya kwayo kwesibili okumangalisayo.

Izindaba ezinhle zensindiso yakho

Isithunywa sevangeli uPawuli wasiza ekuqaliseni umnyakazo wesibili omkhulu wevangeli-ukusabalala kwalo lisuka eJudiya elincane liya ezweni eliphucuzekile lamaGreki namaRoma maphakathi nekhulu lokuqala. UPawulu, umshushisi wamaKristu ophendukile, udlulisa ukukhanya okuphuphuthekisayo kwevangeli ngesisekelo sempilo yansuku zonke. Ngenkathi edumisa uKristu okhazinyulisiwe, ukhathazekile futhi ngemiphumela engokoqobo yevangeli.

Naphezu kokuphikiswa okweqile, uPawulu udlulisela kwamanye amaKristu ukubaluleka okumangalisayo kokuphila kukaJesu, ukufa nokuvuka kwakhe:

“Nani enanikade ningabafokazi nezitha ezenzweni ezimbi, usenihlawulele manje ngokufa komzimba wakhe ofayo, ukuze anibeke phambi kobuso bakhe ningcwele, ningenasici, ningenabala, uma nimi ekukholweni; liqinisiwe, liqinile, ningalilahli ithemba levangeli enalizwa, elashunyayelwa kukho konke okudaliweyo okuphansi kwezulu, mina Pawulu ngaba yisikhonzi sakhe.” 1,21-enye).

Kuyabuyisana. Okungenaphutha. Umusa. Insindiso. Intethelelo. Futhi hhayi esikhathini esizayo kuphela, kodwa lapha namanje. Lelo yivangeli likaPaul.

Uvuko, umvuthwandaba lapho ama-Synoptics noJohane baqhubela khona abafundi babo  ( Johane 20,31 ), ikhulula amandla angaphakathi evangeli empilweni yansuku zonke yomKristu. Ukuvuka kukaKristu kuqinisekisa ivangeli. Ngakho-ke, uPawulu uyafundisa, lezo zenzakalo eJudiya elikude zinikeza ithemba kubo bonke abantu:

“...Anginamahloni ngevangeli; ngoba lingamandla kaNkulunkulu asindisa wonke okholwayo kuyo, amaJuda kuqala lamaGriki. Ngokuba ukulunga kukaNkulunkulu kwembulwa kuyo okuvela ekukholweni kuye ekukholweni..." (Roma 1,16-enye).

Umphostoli uJohane wengeza esinye isici evangelini. Iveza uJesu njengo “Jüeduze kwalowo ayemthanda” (Joh.19,26), ekhunjulwa njengendoda enenhliziyo yomalusi, umholi webandla onothando olujulile ngabantu ngezinto ezibakhathazayo kanye nokwesaba.

“UJesu wenza ezinye izibonakaliso eziningi phambi kwabafundi bakhe ezingalotshiwe kule ncwadi. Kodwa lezi zilotshiwe ukuze nikholwe ukuthi uJesu unguKristu, iNdodana kaNkulunkulu, nokuba ngokukholwa nibe nokuphila egameni lakhe.” Johane 20,30:31).

Ukwethulwa kukaJohane ivangeli kunomongo wakho esitatimendeni esiphawulekayo: "... ukuze ngokukholwa nibe nokuphila."

UJohane udlulisela kahle enye ingxenye yevangeli: UJesu Kristu ezikhathini zokusondelana okukhulu kakhulu komuntu siqu. UJohane unikeza ukulandisa okucacile kokuba khona kukaMesiya komuntu siqu nokuyisikhonzi.

Ivangeli lomuntu siqu

EVangelini likaJohane sihlangana noKristu owayengumshumayeli wasobala onamandla (Joh 7,37-46). Sibona uJesu efudumele futhi enomoya wokungenisa izihambi. Esimemweni sakhe esimemayo esithi "Woza uzobona!" (UJohane 1,39) enseleleni kuTomase owayengabaza ukuba afake umunwe wakhe emanxebeni asezandleni zakhe ( Johane 20,27 ), lapha uvezwa ngendlela engenakulibaleka owaba yinyama futhi wahlala phakathi kwethu ( Johane ) 1,14).

Abantu bazizwa bamukelekile futhi bekhululekile uma benoJesu kangangokuthi baxoxa naye ngendlela ejabulisayo (Joh. 6,5-8). Balala eduze kwakhe ngenkathi bedla futhi bedla esitsheni esisodwa (Johane 13,23-enye).

Babemthanda kakhulu kangangokuthi lapho nje bembona babhukuda baya ogwini ukuze badle izinhlanzi ayezithose ngokwakhe (Johane 21,7-enye).

Ivangeli likaJohane lisikhumbuza ukuthi lingakanani ivangeli ngoJesu Kristu, isibonelo Sakhe kanye nokuphila okuphakade esikuthola ngaye (Joh. 10,10). Kusikhumbuza ukuthi akwanele ukushumayela ivangeli. Nathi kufanele siphile. Umphostoli uJohane usikhuthaza ukuba abanye bazuzwe ngesibonelo sethu ukuze basihlanganyele izindaba ezinhle zombuso kaNkulunkulu. Kwakunjalo ngowesifazane ongumSamariya owahlangana noJesu Kristu emthonjeni (Joh 4,27-30), noMariya waseMandala ( Johane 20,10:18 ).

Lowo owakhala ethuneni likaLazaru, inceku ethobekile eyanika abafundi bayo uFüsse ubesaphila nanamuhla. Usinika ubukhona bakhe ngokuhlala kukaMoya oNgcwele: “Ongithandayo uyakugcina izwi lami; noBaba uyakumthanda, futhi siyakuza kuye, sihlale naye…üningesabi” (Johane 14,23, 27). UJesu uhola abantu Bakhe namuhla ngoMoya oNgcwele. Isimemo sakhe esomuntu siqu futhi sikhuthaza njengakuqala: "Woza uzobona!" (UJohane 1,39).
