Ukuzalwa kukaJesu ngentombi
UJesu, iNdodana kaNkulunkulu ephila phakade, waba umuntu. Ngaphandle kwalokhu, angeke kube khona ubuKristu bangempela. Umphostoli uJohane wakubeka ngalendlela: Kufanele nazi uMoya kaNkulunkulu ngalokhu: Wonke umoya ovumayo ukuthi uJesu Kristu weza enyameni uvela kuNkulunkulu; futhi wonke umoya ongamvumi uJesu akasiye okaNkulunkulu. Futhi lowo ungumoya womphikukristu enawuzwa ukuthi uyeza, futhi kakade usezweni.1. UJohane 4,2-enye).
Ukuzalwa kukaJesu yintombi kuchaza ukuthi iNdodana kaNkulunkulu yaba ngumuntu ophelele ngenkathi ihlala iyikho - iNdodana kaNkulunkulu yaphakade. Iqiniso lokuthi unina kaJesu, uMariya, wayeyintombi nto kwakuwuphawu lokuthi wayengeke akhulelwe ngokuthatha isinyathelo noma ngokuhlanganyela. Ukukhulelwa ngaphandle komshado esibelethweni sikaMariya kwenzeka ngokusebenza kukaMoya oNgcwele, owahlanganisa isimo sobuntu sikaMariya nesimo sobuNkulunkulu seNdodana kaNkulunkulu. INdodana kaNkulunkulu ngalokho yathatha bonke ubukhona bomuntu: kusukela ekuzalweni kuya ekufeni, ekuvukeni nasekukhuphukeni, futhi manje iphila ingunaphakade ebuntwini bayo obukhazinyulisiwe.
Kunabantu abahlekisa ngenkolelo yokuthi ukuzalwa kukaJesu kwakuyisimangaliso sikaNkulunkulu. Laba basolwayo balulaza umlando weBhayibheli nenkolelo yethu kuwo. Ngikuthola ukuphikisa kwabo kuyindida impela ngoba, ngenkathi bebheka ukuzalwa kwentombi njengento engenakwenzeka, bakhuthaza uhlobo lwabo lokuzalwa kwentombi oluhlobene nezimangalo ezimbili eziyisisekelo:
1. Bathi umkhathi wavela ngokwawo, kwavela ize. Ngiqonde ukuthi sinelungelo lokubiza lesi simangaliso, noma ngabe kuthiwa senzeka ngaphandle kwenhloso noma inhloso. Uma sibhekisisa ukuqanjwa kwabo kokungabi nalutho, kuyacaca ukuthi kuyiphupho nje. Akukho lutho lwabo luchazwa kabusha njengento efana nokuguquguquka kwe-quantum endaweni engenalutho, amabhamuza we-cosmic noma iqoqo elingapheli lokuhlukahluka. Ngamanye amazwi, ukusebenzisa kwabo leli gama akukho okudukisayo, njengoba akukho lutho lwabo lugcwele okuthile - into okwavela kuyo umkhathi wethu!
2. Bathi ukuphila kwavela ezintweni ezingaphili. Kimina, lesi simangalo “silandiwe” kakhulu kunenkolelo yokuthi uJesu wazalwa yintombi nto. Naphezu kweqiniso elifakazelwe ngokwesayensi lokuthi ukuphila kuvela ekuphileni kuphela, abanye bayakwazi ukukholelwa ukuthi ukuphila kwavela esobhoni lasendulo elingaphili. Nakuba izazi zesayensi nezibalo ziye zabonisa ukuthi isenzakalo esinjalo singenakwenzeka, abanye bakuthola kulula ukukholelwa esimangalisweni esingenangqondo kunasesimangaliso sangempela sokuzalwa kukaJesu yincasakazi.
Yize abagxeki benamamodeli abo okuzalwa kwezintombi, bakuthatha njengomdlalo omuhle ukuhlekisa ngamaKristu ngokukholelwa ekuzalweni kukaJesu yintombi, okudinga isimangaliso esivela kuNkulunkulu uqobo ogcwele yonke indalo. Akudingekile yini ukucabanga ukuthi labo ababheka ukuzalwa komzimba njengento engenakwenzeka noma engenakwenzeka basebenzisa izindinganiso ezimbili ezihlukene?
UmBhalo ufundisa ukuthi ukuzalwa kwentombi kwakuyisibonakaliso esiyisimangaliso esivela kuNkulunkulu (Isa. 7,14) eyayiklanyelwe ukufeza izinhloso zayo. Ukusetshenziswa ngokuphindaphindiwe kwesiqu esithi “iNdodana kaNkulunkulu” kuqinisekisa ukuthi uKristu wakhulelwa futhi wazalwa ngowesifazane (futhi ngaphandle kokuhlanganyela kwendoda) ngamandla kaNkulunkulu. Umphostoli uPetru uqinisekisa ukuthi lokhu kwenzeka ngempela: ngoba asilandelanga izinganekwane eziyinkimbinkimbi lapho sinazisa amandla nokufika kweNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu; kodwa sizibonele ngokwethu inkazimulo yakhe (2. uPeter 1,16).
Isitatimende somphostoli uPetru sinikeza ukuphikisa okucacile, okuphelele kwanoma isiphi isimangalo sokuthi ukulandisa kokuzalwa komzimba, kufaka phakathi ukuzalwa kukaJesu yintombi, kuyinganekwane noma inganekwane. Iqiniso lokuzalwa kwentombi lifakazela isimangaliso sokukhulelwa okungaphezu kwemvelo ngesenzo sikaNkulunkulu uqobo, sendalo yakhe. Ukuzalwa kukaKristu kwakungokwemvelo futhi kujwayelekile kuzo zonke izindlela, kufaka phakathi sonke isikhathi sokukhulelwa komuntu esiswini sikaMariya. Ukuze uJesu ahlenge zonke izici zobukhona bomuntu, kwakudingeka ukuthi athathele kuye konke, anqobe bonke ubuthakathaka futhi avuselele ubuntu bethu kuye kusukela ekuqaleni kuze kube sekugcineni. Ukuze uNkulunkulu alaphe uqhekeko olwalulethwe ububi phakathi kwakhe nomuntu, uNkulunkulu kwakufanele akulungisele ngokwakhe lokho okwenziwe yisintu.
Ukuze uNkulunkulu abuyisane nathi, bekufanele eze ngokwakhe, aziveze, asinakekele, bese esiholela kuye, aqale ezimpandeni zangempela zobukhona bomuntu. Futhi yilokho kanye uNkulunkulu akwenza ebuntwini beNdodana kaNkulunkulu engunaPhakade. Ngenkathi ehlala enguNkulunkulu ophelele, waba ngomunye wethu ngokuphelele ukuze kuye nangaye sikwazi ukuba nobudlelwano nobudlelwano noYise, eNdodaneni, ngoMoya oNgcwele. Umbhali wencwadi eya kumaHeberu ukhomba leli qiniso elimangalisayo ngalamazwi alandelayo:
Ngokuba abantwana sebeyinyama negazi, naye wakwamukela ngokulingana, ukuze ngokufa kwakhe athathe amandla kuye owayenamandla phezu kokufa, onguSathane, ahlenge labo abathi ngokwesaba ukufa kukho konke ukuphila kwabo. ukuba yizinceku. Ngoba akakhathaleli izingelosi, kodwa unakekela abantwana baka-Abrahama. Ngakho-ke kwakufanele abe njengabafowabo kukho konke, ukuze abe nesihe nompristi omkhulu othembekile phambi kukaNkulunkulu wokuhlawulela izono zabantu (Heb. 2,14-enye).
Ekufikeni kwayo kokuqala iNdodana kaNkulunkulu empeleni yayingu-Imanuweli ebuntwini bukaJesu waseNazaretha (uNkulunkulu unathi, Math. 1,23). Ukuzalwa kukaJesu yintombi nto kwakuyisimemezelo sikaNkulunkulu sokuthi wayeyolungisa yonke into ekuphileni komuntu kusukela ekuqaleni kuze kube sekugcineni. Ekubuyeni kwakhe kwesibili, okusazofika, uJesu uyonqoba futhi anqobe bonke ububi ngokuqeda bonke ubuhlungu nokufa. Umphostoli uJohane wakubeka ngalendlela: Ohlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi wathi: Bheka, ngenza konke kube kusha (IsAmbulo 2)1,5).
Ngibonile amadoda akhulile ekhala ngemuva kokuzalwa kwengane yawo. Kwesinye isikhathi sikhuluma ngokufanele "ngesimangaliso sokubeletha". Ngiyethemba ubona ukuzalwa kukaJesu njengesimangaliso sokuzalwa kwaLowo "owenza konke kube kusha" ngempela.
Ake sigubhe isimangaliso sokuzalwa kukaJesu sindawonye.
