Kumbono wentlambo yamathambo omileyo kuHezekile 37:1-14, UThixo watyhila kumbingeleli uHezekile imeko yabantu bakhe amaSirayeli, abathi boyiswa baza bahlala ekuthinjweni eBhabhiloni. UThixo akazange nje atyhile kumbono wentlambo yamathambo omileyo ilizwe lakwaSirayeli, kodwa uThixo ukwalityhilile ikamva likaSirayeli. Ngenxa yokuba ngokuprofeta, abuya aphila amathambo omileyo, aba ngumkhosi omkhulu kunene. Yayiyintando kaThixo leyo ngabantu baKhe kwaye iseyintando kaThixo leyo ngabantu baKhe; iCawe ekwimo eyomileyo namhlanje. Ingatshintshwa njani imeko eyomileyo yeCawe? Angaphinda aphile njani amathambo omileyo, ukuze iBandla libe ngumkhosi omkhulu ngokugqithisileyo kwakhona?
Umbono wentlambo yamathambo omileyo
Isandla seNkosi saba phezu kwam (UHezekile), Wandithwala ndikuMoya weNkosi, wandibeka entlanjeni ezele ngamathambo, Wandidlulisa kuwo, wandijikelezisa ngeenxa zonke: kwaye, khangela, ayemaninzi kakhulu entilini evulekileyo; kwaye, khangela, zomile kakhulu. Wathi ke yena kum, Nyana womntu, ingaba la mathambo angaphila na? Ndaye ndaphendula, Owu Nkosi Thixo, Uyazi wena.
Waphinda wathi kum, Profeta phezu kwala mathambo, uthi kubo, Owu nina mathambo omileyo, liveni ilizwi likaYehova. Itsho iNkosi uYehova kula mathambo; Khangela, ndiya kungenisa umoya kuni;, niya kuphila ke: Kwaye ndiya kubeka imisipha phezu kwakho, kwaye iya kunyusela inyama phezu kwenu, akwambese ngolusu, kwaye ubeke umoya kuwe, niya kuphila ke; nazi ukuba ndinguYehova.
Ndaprofeta ngoko bendiwiselwe umthetho ngako: njengoko ndaprofetayo, kwavakala ingxolo, nanko kushukuma, ahlanganisana amathambo, ithambo ethanjeni lakhe. Ndithe ndakubona, khangela, kwavela kuwo imisipha nenyama, ulusu lwawagubungela ngaphezulu: akwabakho moya kuzo.
Wathi ke yena kum, Profeta kuwo umoya, profeta, unyana womntu, ndithi kumoya, Itsho iNkosi uYehova; Uvela kwimimoya yomine, Owu umoya, uphefumlele phezu kwaba babuleweyo, ukuze baphile.
Ndaprofeta ke ngoko andiwisele umthetho ngako, wangena umoya kuwo, baphila ke, bema ngeenyawo zabo, umkhosi omkhulu ngokuncamisileyo.
Wathi ke yena kum, Nyana womntu, la mathambo yindlu kaSirayeli iphela: khangela, bathi, Amathambo ethu omile, kwaye ithemba lethu lilahlekile: sinqanyulwe ukuba sibe ngamalungu.
Ke ngoko profeta uze uthi kubo, Itsho iNkosi uYehova; Khangela, Owu bantu bam, ndiya kuwavula amangcwaba enu, ndininyuse niphume emangcwabeni enu, ndikuse emhlabeni wakwaSirayeli. nazi ukuba ndinguYehova, xa ndiwavulayo amangcwaba enu, Owu bantu bam, wanikhupha emangcwabeni enu, Ndiya kuwubeka kuni uMoya wam, niya kuphila ke, yaye ndiya kukubeka ezweni lakho: nazi ukuba mna Yehova ndithethile, kwaye wayenza, utsho uYehova (UHezekile 37:1-14).
Xa isandla seNkosi samkhupha uHezekile ngoMoya weNkosi kwaye sahlala phantsi phakathi kwentlambo., ebezele ngamathambo omileyo, wagqitha kubo, wabajikelezisa, imele ukuba yayingengombono umnandi. Imeko yamathambo omileyo kunye nekamva lalingenathemba kakhulu.
Nangona kunjalo, xa uThixo wabuza uHezekile enoba amathambo ayenokuphila kusini na, UHezekile akazange aphendule ngokwengqondo yakhe yenyama kunye nokuqiqa kwendalo kwaye akazange athi akunakwenzeka, kodwa uHezekile waphendula ngokukholwa kwakhe kuThixo uSomandla wathi, ukuba uThixo wayeyazi.
Ukoyika uYehova nokholo kuThixo zazikho kuHezekile, awayibonisayo ngempendulo yakhe. Ngenxa yokholo lukaHezekile kuThixo, UThixo wayalela uHezekile ukuba aprofete kumathambo omileyo aze awabize aphile.
Ngokholo, UHezekile waprofeta kumathambo omileyo
Ubomi bukaHezekile babunikelwa kuThixo waza wamthemba uThixo ngentliziyo yakhe yonke, umphefumlo, ingqondo, kunye namandla, yaye ngenxa yoko uHezekile wamthobela uThixo waza wenza oko uThixo wayemyalele ukuba aprofete ngako.
Kwimeko yendalo nakwiliso lenyama kwabonakala kububudenge kwaye akunakwenzeka ukuba into efileyo yenziwe iphile. Kodwa kungekhona kummandla womoya nakwiliso lomoya. Kuba zonke izinto zinako ukwenzeka kuye uThixo nakubo, abakholwayo kuThixo (Funda kwakhona: ‘Yiba nokholo kuThixo‘).
Ngokholo kuThixo nokuzithoba nokuthobela uThixo nangokuthetha amazwi kaThixo, UHezekile waprofeta phezu kwamathambo omileyo entilini. Xa uHezekile wayeprofeta, kwavakala ingxolo kwashukuma amathambo adibana, ithambo ethanjeni lakhe. Yafika imisipha nenyama emathanjeni, yaza ulusu lwawagubungela ngaphezulu. Nangona kunjalo, kwakungekho moya (umoya) kubo nangoku.
Ngokholo, UHezekile waprofeta kuMoya
UThixo wayalela uHezekile ukuba aprofete kwakhona, kodwa ngoku hayi emathanjeni, kodwa kuMoya. UHezekile wawathobela amazwi kaThixo waza waprofeta njengoko uYehova wayemyalele. Wafika ke uMoya uvela kwimimoya yomine, wangena kuwo, aphila, ema ngeenyawo zawo, yaba ngumkhosi omkhulu kunene..
UHezekile akazange aphinde ayibone intlambo ezele ngamathambo omileyo, kodwa uHezekile wabona umkhosi omkhulu kakhulu weNkosi.
Ukubuyiselwa kwesizwe, umnquba, kunye nabantu
Umbono wamathambo omileyo awathi waphila wawungabhekiseli nje ekubuyiselweni kwabantu benyama bakwaSirayeli, njengesizwe, okwenzekayo, kodwa umbono wamathambo omileyo awabuya ephila ukwabhekisela ekubuyiselweni komnquba (itempile), eyatshatyalaliswayo, kummandla wendalo nowomoya, nasekubuyiselweni komntu owileyo.
Ngenxa yokuba Usuku lwePentekoste, kwaphuma ezulwini isandi somoya ovuthuza ngamandla, wayizalisa indlu, nangeLizwi, idinga likaBawo: kwangena uMoya oyiNgcwele, wangena emntwini, awathi ngalo uMoya wavuswa kwabafileyo, ukusuka engcwabeni lomoya, yaza indalo entsha yadalwa, abaya kuthi behlangene babe nguMzimba kaKristu; iBandla (Funda kwakhona: ‘Ngosuku lwesibhozo, imini yendalo entsha‘).
Umnquba wabuyiselwa waza waba yicawa
Ngaloo mini ndiya kuwuvusa umnquba kaDavide, lowo uwileyo;, uzivale iintanda zalo; ndiwamise amanxuwa akhe, kwaye ndiya kulakha njengokwemihla yamandulo: Ukuze bawahluthe amasalela akwaEdom, nakuzo zonke iintlanga, abo babizwa ngegama lam, utsho uYehova okwenzayo oku (UAmosi 9:11-12).
Ayavumelana nako oko amazwi abaprofeti; njengoko kubhaliweyo, Emveni koku ndiya kubuya, abuye awakhe umnquba kaDavide, eye yawa phantsi; ndiya kubuya ndiwakhe amanxuwa ayo, kwaye ndiya kuyimisa: Ukuze amaqongqolo abantu ayifune iNkosi, nazo zonke iintlanga, lowo kubizwe ngaye igama lam, utsho uYehova, ngulowo uzenzayo zonke ezi zinto. Iyaziwa ke nguThixo kuselokwaphakade yonke imisebenzi yakhe. (IZenzo 15:15-18).
Wathi ke yena kubo, Asikokwenu ukwazi amaxesha nokuba ngamathuba;, athe uBawo wawabeka kwelakhe igunya. Niya kwamkela ke amandla, emva koko uMoya oyiNgcwele uhlile phezu kwenu: nibe ngamangqina am eYerusalem, nakulo lonke elakwaYuda, nakwaSamari, kuse eziphelweni zehlabathi (IZenzo 1:7-8)
Umnquba owawutshatyalalisiwe kuMnqophiso oMdala kunye nebandla labantu bakaThixo basenyameni wabuyiselwa kuMnqophiso oMtsha., ngokholo kuYesu Krestu nokuzalwa ngokutsha kuye, waza waba nguMzimba kaKristu; iBandla, ibandla labantu bakaThixo bokomoya.
UThixo wasizalisekisa isithembiso sakhe kubantu bakhe, ngokunganeli nje ukukhulula abantu Bakhe nangokubabuyisela ekuthinjweni abantu Bakhe eBhabhiloni kwilizwe lakwaSirayeli, kodwa nangokukhulula abantu Bakhe nangokukhupha abantu Bakhe ekuthinjweni kokomoya kobukumkani bobumnyama ebabuyisela eBukumkanini bukaThixo., ngoYesu Kristu.
Ubume beCawa
Ngelishwa, siyabona ukuba imbali iziphinda kumnqophiso oMtsha. Nangona abantu bakaThixo baqala ngoMoya, babuyele enyameni kwaye baye benyama. Bawashiyile amazwi kaThixo baza balalanisa nehlabathi yaye bafile ngokomoya. Kwilizwe lomoya, Asuka aba ngamathambo omileyo entilini, apho ubomi bukaThixo, ngoMoya waKhe, akasekho kubo, ke ukufa kuyalawula.
Kanye njengokuba abantu abawexukileyo bakwaSirayeli bemka kuThixo baza abathobela amazwi akhe benza ububi phambi koYehova., iicawa ezininzi ziye zalandela indlela efanayo kwaye ziye zaba ngabangakholwayo, abangakholwayo, ezele likratshi, ukuzigwagwisa, uhanahaniso, kunye nezono; ukungcola kwesondo, (ngokomoya) ukukrexeza, unqulo-zithixo, uqhawulo-mtshato, ubuxoki, njl.
Yeha nina!, ababhali nabaFarisi, abahanahanisi! ngokuba nifana namangcwaba aqatywe mhlophe, ezibonakala zintle ngokwenene ngaphandle, kodwa ngaphakathi bazele ngamathambo abantu abafileyo, nako konke ukungcola. Ngokunjalo nani ngaphandle, nibonakala ebantwini ukuba ningamalungisa, kanti ke ngaphakathi nizele luhanahaniso nobutshinga (UMateyu 23:27-28)
Iicawe ezininzi azinaye uMoya oyiNgcwele kwaye ziye zalishiya iLizwi kwaye zabugatya ubulumko nolwazi lukaThixo. Baye bahamba ngendlela yabo kwaye baye bavumela baza bamkela ubulumko, ulwazi, iimfundiso, iintanda-bulumko, kunye neendlela zehlabathi, apho baye babeka ithemba labo kwihlabathi kwaye bathembele kwingqondo yabo yenyama, isakhono, kunye namandla.
Nangona bevuma ngomlomo wabo uYesu Kristu njengeNkosi yabo kwaye bathi bathembele kuThixo, izenzo zabo nendlela yabo yokuphila ithetha okwahlukileyo.
Basenokubonakala bokomoya ngendlela abathetha ngayo, thandaza kwaye uziphathe kakuhle enkonzweni naphambi kwabantu, kodwa eneneni, bangabenyama kwaye benza ngale ndlela kuphela ngenxa yezizathu zokuzingca kwaye baphakanyiswe kwaye bahlonishwe ngabantu.
Bathi bayakholelwa kuYesu Kristu; ilizwi, kodwa baphila njengeentshaba zeLizwi.
Ukuze baxolele izenzo zabo nezono zabo, bawajija ngokuchubekileyo amazwi kaThixo baze bayiguqule inyaniso kaThixo ibe bubuxoki, njengoyise wabo; umtyholi, kwaye bashumayele ivangeli yobuxoki kunye nonqulo lobuxoki.
Into ebuhlungu kukuba, oko ngenxa yokuswela ulwazi lweLizwi likaThixo, ezininzi (okwenyama) AmaKristu avumela amazwi awo awalahlekise aze abeyisele yaye ngenxa yoko, balandela umzekelo wabo kwaye benze isono kunye/okanye baziqhelisa ukona, endaweni yokulandela umzekelo kaYesu Krestu kunye namazwi Akhe kwaye baguquke kwaye basuse izono ebomini babo. Ngenxa yale vangeli yobuxoki, abantu abaninzi bakhokelela enzonzobileni(Funda kwakhona: Abefundisi abaninzi bakhokelela izimvu enzonzobileni)
ILizwi likaThixo lizinziswe ngonaphakade
ngonaphakade, INkosi, Lizinzile emazulwini ilizwi lakho(Iindumiso 119:89)
UThixo uwumise ezulwini nasemhlabeni umthetho wakhe kwaye iLizwi lakhe lizinziswe ngonaphakade. KuMnqophiso oMdala, UThixo wazisa intando Yakhe kubantu Bakhe benyama, ngokunika umthetho waKhe, awayibhalayo emacwecweni amatye, 50 iintsuku emva kwePasika. KuMnqophiso Omtsha, UThixo wayenza yaziwe intando yakhe ngoMoya oyiNgcwele, ngokubhala intando yakhe nomthetho wakhe ezingqondweni nasezintliziyweni zendalo entsha, ngoobani iBandla, 50 iintsuku emva kokubethelelwa kukaYesu Krestu (Funda kwakhona: ‘Kweneke ntoni 50 iintsuku emva kwePasika?‘ kwaye ‘Kwakutheni ukuze uThixo abhale umthetho wakhe kumacwecwe amatye?‘).
Ibandla ngalinye kufuneka liphulaphule kwaye lizinikele kuThixo kwaye lithobele amazwi akhe nomthetho woBukumkani bukaThixo, endaweni yokuguqula imithetho kaThixo yoBukumkani bukaThixo nokuyilungelelanisa nokuthanda, iimvakalelo, kunye neemvakalelo zomntu wenyama; indalo endala, ukuze baphile njengehlabathi, abangakholwayo, abangamaziyo uThixo.
Ingca iyoma;, intyatyambo iyabuna: ke lona ilizwi likaThixo wethu liya kuma ngonaphakade (uIsaya 40:8)
Akukho malunga nesigqibo secawa, imalunga noko uThixo akugqibe kwiLizwi lakhe.
Abaninzi bathi banobudlelwane noYesu Kristu, ngelixa eneneni banobudlelwane kunye nabo kwaye balandele intando yabo, iimvakalelo, nokunyameka kwenyama, nenze oko kukholekileyo kuzo, endaweni yoko kukholekileyo kuYesu Kristu, mnike imbeko, uzukise uYesu Kristu uYise ngobomi babo.
Iicawa ezininzi zisenokubonakala zichumile yaye ziphila kwiliso lenyama, kodwa kuThixo nangenxa yeliso lomoya bafile.
Bahlala ebumnyameni endaweni yokuKhanya kwaye abayisindisi imiphefumlo yabantu ebumnyameni kwaye abayifundisi ngezinto zobukumkani bukaThixo kwaye bangabondli kwaye babakhulisele ekuthandeni kukaThixo., ukuze bakhule ngokomoya emfanekisweni kaYesu Kristu baze bahambe baze benze njengaye.
Hayi, endaweni yoko, bamilise okwehlabathi, ngokuvumela nokwamkela ubulumko, ulwazi, kunye neengcamango zehlabathi.
Endaweni yokukholelwa kwiLizwi likaThixo nokushumayela iLizwi likaThixo, kunye neLizwi likaThixo eliphilayo, nokuma kwiLizwi likaThixo nokuma kwiLizwi likaThixo, abaninzi bayalahlekiswa, iphenjelelwe, nokweyiselwa ngumoya weli hlabathi kwaye nilandele indlela yehlabathi kwaye niphile njengehlabathi
Kwaye ke ivangeli iye yankcenkceshelwa kwaye ayiseyiyo ivangeli yokwenyani kaYesu Krestu, amandla kaThixo, esindisa imiphefumlo ebumnyameni, kodwa iindaba ezilungileyo zithe zaba zezabantu; ivangeli yomshumayeli okanye umprofeti ekhuthaza umshumayeli nomprofeti, kwaye ungamandla omntu womphefumlo, oko kugxile ekwamkeleni, impumelelo yenyama, nempumelelo ehlabathini nokwanda kwengeniso yebandla. Endaweni yokusindisa imiphefumlo ebumnyameni, Bakhokelela ebumnyameni imiphefumlo.
Kwiicawa ezininzi, UYESU khristu; ILizwi alisenasiseko, kodwa amazwi nezimvo, kunye namava omphefumlo (inkuthazo) abashumayeli baye baba sisiseko (Funda kwakhona: ‘Ayilombono wam, kodwa umbono wakho‘ kwaye ‘Icawa yakhela phezu kwembono yomntu‘).
Kwaye ke amazwi kaYesu Kristu, Ezingumoya nobomi azisashunyayelwa kwaye umntu womoya akasaphakelwa, kodwa amazwi abashumayeli ayashunyayelwa, abangabenyama kwaye bathwele ukufa kwaye bondle umntu wenyama. Nje ngeziphumo, umntu wenyama uhlala ephila kwaye ukufa kuyalawula kwaye isono siyaphuphuma.
Abaninzi bakhetha ukulalanisa kwaye baqubude kwihlabathi kwaye bangamthobeli uThixo baze bahlukane noThixo, kunokuhlala uthembekile kuThixo nakwiLizwi lakhe kwaye ube nobunzima nentshutshiso.
Amathambo omileyo makaphile!
NguMoya odlisa ubomi; inyama yona ayincedi lutho: amazwi endiwathethayo kuni, bangumoya, kwaye zibubomi (UYohane 6:63)
Kodwa logama nje uYesu engekabuyi, kwaye ngalo lonke ixesha abantu besaphila kulo mhlaba, akukashiywa lixesha ukuba uve iLizwi likaThixo kwaye uguquke kwaye ubuyele kuYe.
Amazwi kaYesu, ezingumoya nobomi, zisenamandla kangangokuba basavelisa ubomi.
Akukhathaliseki nokuba yome kwaye ifile kangakanani imeko yecawa, UThixo unako ukuguqula zonke iimeko kwaye unokwenza yonke into efileyo iphile, ngoMoya waKhe nangeLizwi laKhe.
Ukuba amabandla aphulaphula amazwi kaThixo aze avukele ebulungiseni aze aguquke aze azithobe kuYesu Kristu; ILizwi kunye nabantu bazalwa ngokutsha kuKristu kwaye bayibethelela inyama yabo kwaye babhaptizwe kwaye bamkele uMoya oyiNgcwele, emva koko amathambo omileyo aya kuphila kwaye amabandla abe ziindawo ezingcwele zoBukumkani bamazulu emhlabeni.
Amabandla aya kuphila kuKristu ngoMoya oyiNgcwele kwaye aya kukhululwa ekuthinjweni kwawo ngokomoya ebukumkanini bobumnyama., kwaye uya kuba noMoya waKhe, apho baye baba namandla, oko eGameni likaYesu; igunya likaYesu Krestu namandla oMoya oyiNgcwele, yonke into efileyo iya kuvuka, nemiphefumlo emininzi, abahlala besoyika ebumnyameni, uyakusindiswa, aphile, axolelaniswe noThixo, axhotyiswe ngeLizwi, ukuze bakwazi ukuthanda kukaThixo baze bahambe ekuthandeni Kwakhe baze kunye babe ngumkhosi omkhulu ngokugqithisileyo omelayo, shumayelani nimise uBukumkani bukaThixo emhlabeni.
‘Yibani yityuwa yehlabathi’
