Injabulo yesikhashana

Lapho ngibona le ndlela yesayensi yenjabulo ku-athikili ye-Psychology Today, ngahleka kakhulu:

Nakuba le nqubo engenangqondo yaveza injabulo yesikhashana, ayizange iveze injabulo ehlala njalo. Ngicela ungaqondi kahle; Ngijabulela ukuhleka njengabo bonke abantu. Kungakho ngithanda amazwi kaKarl Barth: “Hleka; kuyinto eseduze kakhulu emseni kaNkulunkulu. “Nakuba kokubili injabulo nenjabulo kungasenza sihleke, kunomehluko omkhulu phakathi kwakho kokubili. Umehluko engabhekana nawo eminyakeni eminingi edlule ngesikhathi ubaba wami eshona (sisesithombeni sindawonye kwesokudla). Yebo, angizange ngijabule ngokudlula kukababa, kodwa ngaduduzwa futhi ngakhuthazwa injabulo yokwazi ukuthi wayethola ukusondelana okusha noNkulunkulu phakade. Umcabango waleliqiniso elikhazimulayo waqhubeka futhi wanginika injabulo. Kuye ngenguqulo, iBhayibheli lisebenzisa igama elithi ukujabula nenjabulo izikhathi ezingaba ngu-30, kuyilapho ukujabula nokujabula kuvela izikhathi ezingaphezu kuka-300. ETestamenteni Elidala, igama lesiHeberu elithi Sama (elihunyushwe ngokuthi ukujabula, ukujabula kanye nokuthokoza) lisetshenziselwa ukuhlanganisa izinhlobonhlobo zezinto abantu abahlangabezana nazo njengocansi, umshado, ukuzalwa kwezingane, isivuno, ukunqoba nokuphuza iwayini (IsiHlabelelo seziHlabelelo). 1,4 ; izwi 05,18; IHubo 113,9; Isaya 9,3 kanye neHubo 104,15). ETestamenteni Elisha, igama lesiGrikhi elithi chara lisetshenziswe ikakhulukazi ukuveza injabulo esenzweni sokuhlenga sikaNkulunkulu, ukufika kweNdodana Yakhe (Luka 2,10) nokuvuka kukaJesu (Luka 24,41). Njengoba silifunda eTestamenteni Elisha, siyaqonda ukuthi igama elithi injabulo lingaphezu komuzwa; kuyisici somKristu. Injabulo iyingxenye yesithelo esivezwa ukusebenza kwangaphakathi kukaMoya oNgcwele.

Sijwayelana kahle nenjabulo esiyithola ezenzweni ezinhle zemifanekiso yemvu elahlekile, uhlamvu lwemali olulahlekile, kanye nendodana yolahleko (Luka 1 Kor.5,2-24) bona. Ngokubuyiselwa nokubuyisana kwalokho “okulahlekile,” sibona lapha umuntu oyinhloko ehlanganisa uNkulunkulu uBaba njengenjabulo. UmBhalo futhi usifundisa ukuthi injabulo yeqiniso ayithonywa izimo zangaphandle ezinjengobuhlungu, usizi, nokulahlekelwa. Injabulo ingalandela ukuhlupheka ngenxa kaKristu (Kolose 1,24) ukuba. Naphezu kokuhlupheka okubi kanye nehlazo lokubethelwa, uJesu uthola injabulo enkulu (KumaHeberu 1 Kor.2,2).

Njengoba sazi ubuqiniso baphakade, abaningi bethu bathola injabulo yangempela ngisho nalapho kufanele sivalelise kothandekayo. Lokhu kuyiqiniso ngoba kunobuhlobo obungenakunqamuka phakathi kothando nenjabulo. Lokhu sikubona emazwini kaJesu lapho efingqa izimfundiso zakhe kubafundi bakhe: “Nginitshela zonke lezi zinto ukuze ukuthokoza kwami ​​kugcwale kini, nenjabulo yenu iphelele. Futhi unjalo umyalo wami: Thandanani njengoba nje nginithandile.” ( Johane 15,11-12). Njengoba sikhula othandweni lukaNkulunkulu, nenjabulo yethu iyakhula. Ngempela, zonke izithelo zikaMoya oNgcwele ziyakhula kithi njengoba sikhula othandweni.

Encwadini ayibhalela ibandla laseFilipi, uPawulu eboshiwe eRoma, uPawulu usisiza ukuba siqonde umehluko phakathi kwenjabulo nentokozo. Kule ncwadi wasebenzisa amagama athi injabulo, ukujabula nokujabula izikhathi ezingu-16. Sengivakashele amajele amaningi nezikhungo zokuvalelwa futhi ngeke uthole abantu abajabule lapho. Kodwa uPawulu, eboshiwe, wazizwa ejabule engazi noma wayezophila noma afe. Ngenxa yokholo lwakhe kuKristu, uPawulu wayezimisele ukubona izimo zakhe ngeso lokholo ngendlela ehluke kakhulu kunaleyo abantu abaningi ababengayibona. Phawula lokho akusho kweyabaseFilipi 1,12-14 wabhala:

"Bafowethu abathandekayo! Ngifuna nazi ukuthi ukuboshwa kwami ​​akuzange kuvimbele ukusabalala kwevangeli. Ngokuphambene nalokho! Manje sekubacacele bonke onogada bami lapha kanye nakwabanye ababambe iqhaza ecaleni ukuthi ngiboshiwe kuphela ngoba ngikholelwa kuKristu. Ngaphezu kwalokho, amaKristu amaningi aye athola isibindi esisha nokuzethemba ngokuboshwa kwami. Manje bashumayela izwi likaNkulunkulu ngaphandle kokwesaba nokungesabi.”

La mazwi anamandla avela enjabulweni yangaphakathi uPawulu ayenayo naphezu kwezimo zakhe. Wayazi ukuthi ungubani kuKristu nokuthi uKristu wayengubani. KwabaseFilipi 4,11-13 wabhala:

“Angikusho lokhu ukuze ngikunake isidingo sami. Phela ngiye ngafunda ukuzwana kuzo zonke izimo zokuphila. Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi nginokuncane noma okuningi, ngikwazi kahle kokubili, ngakho ngingakwazi ukubhekana nakho kokubili: Ngingasutha futhi ngilambe; ngingaswela ngibe nensada. Ngingakwenza konke lokhu ngoKristu, ongipha amandla namandla.”

Singahlanganisa umehluko phakathi kwenjabulo nenjabulo ngezindlela eziningi.

• Injabulo ingeyesikhashana, ivame ukuba yesikhashana, noma ingumphumela wokwaneliseka kwesikhashana. Injabulo ingunaphakade futhi ingokomoya, isihluthulelo sokubona ukuthi uNkulunkulu ungubani nokuthi wenzeni, wenzani futhi uzokwenzani.
• Ngoba injabulo ixhomeke ezicini eziningi. Iyadlula, ijule noma ikhule. Injabulo iba lapho sikhula ebuhlotsheni bethu noNkulunkulu nakwabanye.
• Injabulo ivela kwizenzakalo zesikhashana, zangaphandle, ekubukeni nasezenzweni. Injabulo ilele kuwe futhi ivela emsebenzini kaMoya oNgcwele.

Ngenxa yokuthi uNkulunkulu wasidalela ukuhlanganyela naye, akukho okunye okunganelisa imiphefumulo yethu futhi kusilethele injabulo ehlala njalo. Ngokukholwa uJesu uphila kithi nathi kuye. Ngenxa yokuthi asisaziphileli thina, singajabula kuzo zonke izimo, ngisho nasekuhluphekeni (Jakobe 1,2), sizihlanganisa noJesu, owahlupheka ngenxa yethu. Naphezu kokuhlupheka kwakhe okukhulu ejele, uPawulu wabhala kweyabaseFilipi 4,4: "Jabulani ngokuthi ningabakaJesu Kristu. Futhi ngifuna ukuphinda ngithi: Jabulani!"

UJesu wasibizela ekuphileni kokuzidela ngenxa yabanye. Kulokhu kuphila kunenkulumo ebonakala iyindida: “Noma ubani ongasindisa ukuphila kwakhe nganoma iyiphi indlela uyolahlekelwa yikho, kodwa noma ubani odela ukuphila kwakhe ngenxa yami uyokuzuza phakade.” ( Mathewu 16,25). Njengabantu, sivame ukuchitha amahora noma izinsuku singacabangi kangako ngenkazimulo, uthando, nobungcwele bukaNkulunkulu. Kodwa ngineqiniso ukuthi uma sibona uKristu enkazimulweni yakhe egcwele, sizohlanganisa amakhanda ethu futhi sithi, “Bengingazinaka kanjani ezinye izinto na?

Asikamboni uKristu ngokucacile ngendlela ebesingathanda ngayo. Sihlala emijondolo, ngomqondo ongokomfanekiso, futhi kunzima ukucabanga izindawo esingakaze siye kuzo. Simatasa kakhulu sizama ukusinda emijondolo ukuze singene enkazimulweni kaNkulunkulu (bheka isihloko sethu esithi, Injabulo Yensindiso ). Injabulo yaphakade yenza kube nokwenzeka ukuqonda ukuhlupheka kwalempilo njengamathuba okuthola umusa, ukwazi uNkulunkulu, kanye nokumethemba ngokujulile. Sizuza ekuthokozeleni okuphakade nakakhulu ngemva kokuzabalaza nobugqila besono kanye nabo bonke ubunzima balokhu kuphila. Siyokwazisa imizimba ekhazinyulisiwe nakakhulu ngemva kokuzwa ubuhlungu bemizimba yethu yenyama. Ngikholwa ukuthi yingakho uKarl Barth athi, “Injabulo iyindlela elula yokubonga.” Singabonga ngokuthi injabulo yasungulwa ngaphambi kukaJesu. Wenza uJesu wakwazi ukubekezelela isiphambano. Ngokufanayo, injabulo nayo yayibekwe phambi kwethu.
