Njalo ngonyaka, ULwesihlanu Oluhle lukhunjulwa ngamaKristu. Kodwa yini incazelo ye-Good Friday? Kwenzekeni ngoGood Friday? Lithini iBhayibheli ngoGood Friday? Kungani uGood Friday kuwusuku olubaluleke kangaka kumaKristu nasesintwini?
Kwenzekeni ngoGood Friday?
NgoLwesihlanu Oluhle, siyakhumbula ukubethelwa kukaJesu Kristu. Sikhumbula ngoGood Friday, ukuthi uJesu wafela abantu futhi wathatha zonke izono, ububi, ukugula, nezifo phezu Kwakhe. UJesu wathwala zonke izono nobubi futhi wathatha inhlawulo yesono, okungukufa, phezu kwaKhe.
UJesu wathatha zonke izono zomhlaba phezu kwakhe, ukuze wonke umuntu, abangakholwa Kuye, wayeyohlengwa ngegazi laKhe, esonweni nasekufeni, futhi uhlanganiswe noBaba.
Bonke abahlengiweyo beNkosi basindisiwe futhi bayothola ukuphila okuphakade.
Uma ukholwa kuJesu Kristu, Ungu hlengiwe esimweni sakho sesono kanye nemvelo yesono.
Igazi lakhe likukhulule emandleni kasathane futhi wakuletha embusweni kaNkulunkulu. Ungu engaseyisoni, kodwa usube ngcwele.
Lapho usuba ngcwele, kusho ujuthi, ukuze nani nihambe njengongcwele futhi nihambe ebungcweleni nasekulungeni. NjengoJesu wahamba ebungcweleni nasekulungeni, ngoba usebe nguMnikazi wenu omutsha.
Ngaphambi kokuthi wamukele uJesu Kristu, njengoMsindisi neNkosi yakho, nahamba ngokwentando kaSathane (umnikazi wakho wangaphambilini).
Kodwa manje, kufanele nihambe ngokwentando kaJesu (Umnikazi wakho omusha). Ungathola intando Yakhe eZwini Lakhe. IZwi linguJesu, nangeZwi laKhe, Uzokwembula futhi abelane ngentando Yakhe nawe.
Iposi lokushaywa
Futhi Wathatha isinkwa, futhi wabonga, futhi wayihlephula, wabanika, ethi, lokhu kungumzimba Wami onikelwa nina: lokhu kwenzeni ningikhumbula. Kanjalo nendebe emva kokudla kwakusihlwa, ethi, Le ndebe iyisivumelwano esisha egazini Lami, elichithelwe wena (Luka 22:19-20)
UJesu wathatha isinkwa, elifanekisela umzimba Wakhe emhlabeni obonakalayo. Njalo lapho uthatha isinkwa futhi udla isinkwa, uyawukhumbula umzimba waKhe, eyanikelwa ngenxa yenu. Uyayikhumbula imivimbo, Wazithwala, esigxotsheni sokushaywa, ngoLwesihlanu Oluhle. Niyakhumbula ukuthi ngemivimbo yaKhe naphiliswa. Yebo, konke ukugula nesifo Wathwala phezu kwaKhe esigxotsheni sokushaywa.
Kodwa walinyazwa ngenxa yeziphambeko zethu, Yachotshozwa ngobubi bethu: isijeziso sokuthula kwethu sasiphezu kwakhe; nangemivimbo yaKhe siphilisiwe (Isaya 53:5)
Kabani imivimbo naphulukiswa ngayo (1 UPetru 2:24)
Umsebenzi ophelile eKalvari
Ngemva kweposi lokushaywa, UJesu waqhubeka nendlela yakhe eya eKalvari; indawo, lapho Ayezafela khona, kubo bonke abantu. Yebo, Wayezonikelwa ngenxa yaso sonke isintu.
NgoLwesihlanu Oluhle, UJesu wahlatshwa esiphambanweni futhi wathwala zonke iziphambeko nezono zesintu. UJesu wathatha zonke izono, ububi, futhi ekugcineni ukufa phezu kwaKhe. Ukuze wonke umuntu, okholwa Kuye uyakwamukela ukuhlengwa, ukuphila okuphakade, impilo ehlangene noBaba. Wonke umuntu, owahlengwa ngegazi likaJesu, ngeke abhekane nokufa.
Igazi lakhe (Impilo yakhe) lachithwa esiphambanweni. Iwayini oliphuzayo lifanekisela igazi Lakhe (Impilo yakhe) eyakugeza zonke izono zakho nobubi futhi yakuhlenga emvelweni yesono.
UJesu wayenenjongo eyodwa, futhi lokho kwakuwukwenza intando kaBaba Wakhe. Wayazi, ukuthi uNkulunkulu ubathanda kangakanani abantu.
Yebo, UJesu wayazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu uthanda kangakanani wena, futhi ngoba Wabona lolothando olukhulu lukaBaba Wakhe ngawe, Wanikela ngokuphila Kwakhe ngenxa yakho. Ukuze uzophinde uhlanganiswe noMdali wakho, uYihlo oseZulwini.
Ungakhohlwa umhlatshelo Wakhe omkhulu. Ungalokothi ukhohlwe isiphambano negazi likaJesu Kristu. Kodwa khumbula nsuku zonke, lokho akwenzele kona kanye nalokho akunike khona.
Nsuku zonke, kufanele uthabathe isiphambano sakho ulandele uJesu, okusho ukuthi wenza futhi uphile ngokwentando Yakhe, futhi akuseyona intando yakho. Uma uhamba entandweni Yakhe, uzoMthokozisa, futhi umphakamise kukho konke okwenzayo.
