Yintoni ukholo? Makhe sibone indlela iBhayibhile eyichaza ngayo
Ukholo luchazwa njengokholo olunokholo olomeleleyo ukukholelwa ngokuqinileyo kwinto apho kungekho bungqina bubonakalayo; ukuthembela ngokupheleleyo, ukuthembana, ukuthembana okanye ukuzinikela. Ukholo luchasene nokuthandabuza.
Isichazi-magama sikaWebster seNew World College sichaza ukholo njenge "nkolelo engenakuphikiswa engafunisi bungqina okanye bungqina; ukukholelwa ngokungagungqiyo kuThixo, imigaqo yezenkolo ".
Tumelo: yintoni?
Ibhayibhile inika inkcazo emfutshane yokholo kumaHebhere 11: 1:
"Ngoku ukholo kukuqiniseka kwento esithembe ukuyenza noqinisekileyo kwinto esingayiboniyo." (Sinethemba lantoni? Siyathemba ukuba uThixo unokuthenjwa kwaye uyasihlonipha izithembiso zakhe. Siqinisekile ukuba izithembiso zakhe zosindiso, ubomi banaphakade kunye nomzimba ovusiweyo ziya kuba zezethu ngenye imini, ukuba ungubani na uThixo.
Inxalenye yesibini yale nkcazo ibona ingxaki yethu: uThixo akabonakali. Asinakho ukuyibona iparadesi. Ubomi obungenasiphelo, obuqala ngokusindiswa kwethu apha emhlabeni, kukwinto esingayiboniyo, kodwa ukholo lwethu kuThixo lusenza siqiniseke ngezi zinto. Kwakhona, asithembeli kubungqina besayensi nakubonakalayo kodwa ekuthembekeni ngokupheleleyo komntu.
Sifunda phi isimilo sikaThixo ukuze simthembe? Impendulo ecacileyo yiBhayibhile, apho uThixo azityhila ngokupheleleyo kubalandeli bakhe. Yonke into esifuna ukuyazi ngoThixo ikhona, kwaye ingumfanekiso ochanekileyo kunye nobunzulu bendalo yakhe.
Enye yezinto esizifundayo ngoThixo eziseBhayi, kukuba akanakuxoka. Ingqibelelo yayo igqibelele; ke, xa esithi iBible iyinyani, singalamkela eli bango, sisekelezwe isimo sikaThixo.Iindinyana ezininzi zebhayibhile zingenakuqondakala, ukanti amaKhristu awamkela ngenxa yokholo kuThixo onokuthenjwa.
Tumelo: kutheni siyifuna?
IBhayibhile yincwadi yokufundisa yobuKristu. Ayisixeleli abalandeli ukuba mabathembe bani, kodwa kutheni kufuneka simthembe.
Kubomi bethu bemihla ngemihla, amaKristu ahlaselwa kuwo onke amacala ngokuthandabuza. Ukuthandabuza yayiyimfihlelo emncinci emdaka yompostile uThomas, owayehambe noYesu Krestu iminyaka emithathu, bemmamela imihla ngemihla, bejonga izinto azenzayo, bade bade bayibona iphakamisa abantu ekufeni. Kodwa akufika eluvukweni lukaKristu, uTomas wacela kuvavanyo oluqinisekileyo:
Wandula ke (uYesu) wathi kuTomas: “Beka umnwe wakho apha; jonga izandla zam. Yandisa isandla sakho kwaye usibeka ecaleni kwam. Yeka ukuthandabuza kwaye ukholwe ". (Yohane 20: 27, NIV)
UTomas wayengoyena mntu wayethandabuza eBhayibhileni. Kwiphepha elisezantsi, kwisahluko se-11 samaHebhere, ibhayibhile yazisa uluhlu olunomdla lwamaqhawe eTestamente eNdala kwindima ekuthiwa yi "Faith Hall of Fame". La madoda nabafazi kunye namabali abo bayabonakala ukukhuthaza nokucela umngeni kwinkolo yethu.
Amakholwa, ukholo luqala uthotho lweziganeko ezikhokelela ezulwini:
Ngokholo ngesisa sikaThixo, amaKristu axolelwe. Sifumana isipho sosindiso ngokholo kwidini likaYesu Krestu.
Ngokuthembela ngokupheleleyo kuThixo ngokukholwa kuYesu Krestu, amakholwa asindiswa kumgwebo kaThixo ngesono nakwiziphumo zaso.
Okokugqibela, ngobabalo lukaThixo, siba ngamagorha okholo ngokulandela iNkosi ngokuthe rhoqo ngakumbi kukholo.
Tumelo: siyifumana njani?
Ngelishwa, enye yeembono eziphosakeleyo ebomini bobuKristu kukuba sinako ukuzenzela ukholo. Asinako uku.
Sizabalazela ukondla ukholo ngokwenza imisebenzi yobuKristu, ukuthandaza ngakumbi, ukufunda iBhayibhile ngakumbi; Ngamanye amagama, ukwenza, ukwenza. Kodwa iSibhalo sithi asiyondlela esifumana ngayo:
"Kungenxa yokuba usindiswe ngobabalo, ngokholo - kwaye ayisiwedwa, sisipho sikaThixo eso - asibenzwanga nguMartin Luther, omnye wabahlaziyi bobuKristu bokuqala, wanyanzelisa ukuba ukholo luvela kuThixo osebenza kuthi kwaye ngaphandle komnye umthombo: "Cela uThixo ukuba asebenzise ukholo kuwe, okanye uya kuhlala ngonaphakade ngaphandle kokholo, nokuba ungathanda ntoni na, uthini na okanye wenze ntoni na."
U-Luther nabanye abafundi bezakwalizwi baqaqambisa isenzo sokumamela ivangeli eshunyayelwayo:
Yini na ukuba uIsaya athi, Nkosi, ngubani na okholiweyo ludaba lwethu? Ke ukholo lungavela ngokuva nokuva ngelizwi likaKristu. Yiyo loo nto intshumayelo iye yaba yeyona nto iphambili kwiinkonzo zonqulo zamaProtestanti. ILizwi elithethiweyo nguThixo linamandla angaphezu kwendalo ukwakha ukholo kubaphulaphuli. Unqulo oluhlangeneyo lubalulekile ekukhuthazeni ukholo njengoko kushunyayelwa eLizwini likaThixo.
Xa utata onomsindo weza kuYesu ecela ukuba unyana wakhe owayeneedemon aphiliswe, le ndoda yathetha oku:
“Kwangoko utata oyinkwenkwe wadanduluka wathi: 'Ndiyacinga; Ndincede ndoyise ukungakholelwa kwam! .
