Sithethelele ngamaphutha ethu

The Worldwide Church of God ngamafuphi WKG, English Worldwide Church of God (kusukela 3. April 2009 uGrace Communion International), uguqule izikhundla eminyakeni yakamuva mayelana nezinkolelo nemikhuba eminingi osekunesikhathi eside ikhona. Lezi zinguquko zazisekelwe ekucabangeni ukuthi insindiso iza ngomusa, ngokukholwa. Nakuba siye sashumayela lokhu esikhathini esidlule, bekulokhu kuxhumene nesigijimi sokuthi uNkulunkulu usikweleta umvuzo wemisebenzi yethu yobuntu obungcwele, obulungile.

Sekungamashumi eminyaka sibheke ukugcina umthetho ngokungagudluki njengesisekelo sobulungiswa bethu. Ngokwesifiso sethu sokulangazelela ukumjabulisa, sazama ukwakha ubuhlobo noNkulunkulu ngemithetho nemithetho yeTestamente Elidala. Ngomusa Wakhe, uNkulunkulu usibonisile ukuthi zonke izibopho zeTestamente azisebenzi kumaKrestu ngaphansi kweSivumelwano Esisha.

Usiholele ekunotheni komusa wakhe nasebudlelwaneni obuvuselelwe noJesu Kristu. Wavula izinhliziyo nezingqondo zethu enjabulweni yensindiso yakhe. Umbhalo ukhuluma nathi ngencazelo entsha futhi sijabula nsuku zonke ebudlelwaneni bomuntu siqu esinabo neNkosi noMsindisi wethu. 

Ngasikhathi sinye, siqonda kabuhlungu umthwalo osindayo wesikhathi esedlule. Ukuqonda kwethu okuyiphutha kwezimfundiso kufihle ivangeli elicacile likaJesu Kristu futhi kuholele ezinqumweni eziningi zamanga nemikhuba engqubuzana neBhayibheli. Kuningi okumele sizisole ngakho futhi kuningi okumele sixolise ngakho.

Sasilahla abanye futhi sizenza abalungile - sawalahla amanye amaKristu ngokuwabiza "ngamaKristu okuthiwa", "akhohliswa" nangokuthi "amathuluzi kaSathane". Sanikeza amalungu ethu indlela egxile emsebenzini wempilo yobuKrestu. Besidinga ukuthi kulandelwe imiyalelo ebucayi yomthetho weTestamente Elidala. Sithathe indlela eqinile yezomthetho ebuholini besonto.

Indlela yethu yokucabanga kweTestamente eliDala yakhuthaza imicabango yokuzikhethela nokuzikhukhumeza kunemfundiso yeTestamente Elisha yobuzalwane nobunye.

Sigcizelele ngokweqile iziprofetho zokubikezela kanye nokuqagela okungokwesiprofetho, ngaleyo ndlela silulaza ivangeli leqiniso lensindiso ngoJesu Kristu. Lezi zimfundiso nemikhuba kungumthombo wokuzisola okujulile. Silwazi kabuhlungu usizi nokuhlupheka okwabangelwa yikho.

Besingalungile, singalungile. Kwakungakaze kube khona inhloso yokudukisa noma ngubani. Besigxile kakhulu kulokho esikholelwa ukuthi senzela uNkulunkulu kangangokuthi sehlulekile ukubona indlela yokomoya ebesikuyo. Ngenhloso noma cha, leyo ndlela kwakungeyona eyebhayibheli.

Uma sibheka emuva, siyazibuza ukuthi kungenzeka kanjani ukuthi senze iphutha kangaka. Izinhliziyo zethu ziya kubo bonke abadukiswe yimfundiso yethu emibhalweni engcwele. Asikubukeli phansi ukudideka nokudideka kwabo ngokomoya. Sifuna ngobuqotho ukuqonda kwabo nokuthethelelwa.

Siyaqonda ukuthi ukujula kokuhlukaniswa kungenza ukubuyisana kube nzima. Ezingeni lomuntu, ukubuyisana kaningi kuyinkqubo ende futhi enzima ethatha isikhathi. Kepha siyayithandazela nsuku zonke futhi sikhumbule ukuthi inkonzo kaKristu yokwelapha ingavala ngisho amanxeba ajulile.

Asenzi mzamo wokufihla amanga nezimfundiso zeBhayibheli zesikhathi esedlule. Akuyona inhloso yethu ukuvele sivale imifantu. Indaba yethu siyibuka ngqo emehlweni bese sibhekana namaphutha nezono esizitholayo. Bazohlala beyingxenye yomlando wethu ngokusikhumbuza njalo ngobungozi bokubambelela emthethweni.

Kodwa ngeke siphile esikhathini esidlule. Sidinga ukweqa okwedlule. Kufanele siqhubeke. Sisho kanye nomphostoli uPawulu: “Ngikhohlwa okungasemuva futhi ngifinyelela okungaphambili futhi ngiphishekele umgomo obekiwe, umklomelo wokubizwa kukaNkulunkulu kwasezulwini ngoJesu Kristu.”— Fil. 3:13-14 ).

Ngakho-ke namuhla simi ezinyaweni zesiphambano - uphawu lokugcina lokubuyisana. Kuyindawo evumelana lapho amaqembu ahlukanisiwe angahlangana khona. NjengamaKrestu, sonke siyaziqonda ukuhlupheka okwenzeka lapho futhi siyethemba ukuthi lokhu kuhlonzwa kuzosihlanganisa.

Sifisa ukuhlangana lapho nanoma ngubani okungenzeka simzwise ubuhlungu. Yigazi leWundlu kuphela namandla kaMoya okusenza sikwazi ukubeka emuva ubuhlungu emuva futhi siqonde enjongweni yethu efanayo.

Ngakho-ke ngixolisa kakhulu ngokusuka enhliziyweni kuwo wonke amalungu, amalungu adlule, osebenza nabo, nabanye - bonke labo abake baba yizisulu zezono zethu zangesikhathi esedlule kanye nokufundwa kabi kwemiBhalo. Futhi ngiyakumema ukuba uhlanganyele nathi ekushumayeleni ivangeli leqiniso likaJesu Kristu emhlabeni wonke njengoba uNkulunkulu namanje usibusisa ngokukhula okuvuselelekile namandla emsebenzini Wakhe.
