UMoya oyiNgcwele, le nto ingaziwayo
Xa oNgcwele uPawulos wabuza abafundi base-Efese ukuba bamamkele na uMoya oyiNgcwele ngokuza elukholweni, baphendula: “Asivanga nokuva ukuba kukho uMoya oyiNgcwele (IZenzo 19,2:XNUMX). Kodwa kuya kubakho nesizathu sokuba nakula maxesha ethu uMoya oyiNgcwele ubizwe ngokuba "Omkhulu ongaziwayo", ngelixa yena engumqhubi wenyaniso wobomi bethu bomoya. Ngenxa yesi sizathu, kulo nyaka kaMoya oyiNgcwele, sifuna ukwazi umsebenzi wakhe kwimiyalelo emfutshane kodwa eyaziwayo kaFr. Rainero Cantalamessa.
1. Ngaba kukho ukukhankanywa koMoya oyiNgcwele kwisityhilelo sakudala? – Kwasekuqaleni iBhayibhile ivula ngevesi esele ichaza ubukho bayo: Ekuqalekeni uThixo wadala amazulu nomhlaba. Umhlaba wawusenyanyeni, usentlango, nobumnyama bugutyungelwe senzonzobila, umoya kaThixo uhleli phezu kwamanzi (Gen 1,1:XNUMX). Ihlabathi ladalwa, kodwa lingenasimo. Bekusesiphithiphithi. Kwakumnyama, kunzonzobila. wada uMoya kaYehova waqalisa ukuphaphazela phezu kwamanzi lawo. Emva koko kwavela indalo. Kwaye yayiyicosmos.
Sijongene nesimboli esihle. USt. Ambrose wayitolika ngolu hlobo: UMoya oyiNgcwele nguye owenza ihlabathi lisuke kwisiphithiphithi liye kwicosmos, oko kukuthi, lisuka kwisiphithiphithi nasebumnyameni liye kwimvisiswano. KwiTestamente eNdala iimpawu zomfanekiso kaMoya oyiNgcwele azikacaci kakuhle. Kodwa indlela yakhe yokwenza ichazwe kuthi, ezibonakalisa ubukhulu becala kumacala amabini, ngokungathi usebenzisa amaza amabini ahlukeneyo.
Intshukumo yeCharismatic. UMoya kaThixo uyafika, eneneni, utyhutyha abantu abathile. Ibanika amandla angaqhelekanga, kodwa okwexeshana kuphela, okwenza imisebenzi ethe ngqo bexhasa uSirayeli, abantu bakaThixo bamandulo, ifikela amagcisa afanele ayilwe aze ayile izinto ezinqulwayo. Ingena kookumkani bakwaSirayeli ize ibenze bafanelekele ukulawula abantu bakaThixo: USamuweli wathabatha uphondo lweoli waza waluthambisa phakathi kwabazalwana bakhe, waza uMoya kaYehova wahlala phezu koDavide ukususela ngaloo mini ( 1 Sam 16,13:XNUMX ).
Kwaloo Moya mnye uza phezu kwabaprofeti bakaThixo ukuze batyhile intando yakhe ebantwini: nguMoya wesiprofeto owabaphilisayo abaprofeti beTestamente eNdala, ukuya kutsho kuYohane uMbhaptizi, umanduleli kaYesu Krestu. Ndizele amandla ngomoya kaYehova, wobulungisa nobugorha, ukuze ndimxelele uYakobi ubugwenxa bakhe, uSirayeli isono sakhe (Mi 3,8:36). Esi sisenzo sothando soMoya kaThixo, isenzo esijoliswe ekulungelweni koluntu, ngabantu abasifumeneyo. Kodwa kukho enye indlela esibonakalalisa ngayo isenzo soMoya kaThixo, sisenzo sakhe sokungcwalisa, esijolise ekuguquleni abantu ngaphakathi, ekunikeni intliziyo entsha, iimvakalelo ezintsha. Kule meko, umamkeli wesenzo soMoya weNkosi akaseloluntu, kodwa ngumntu ngamnye. Esi senzo sesibini siqala ukuzibonakalisa emva kwexesha elithile kwiTestamente eNdala. Obokuqala ubungqina bukwincwadi kaHezekile, apho athi uThixo: Ndiya kuninika intliziyo entsha, ndibeke uMoya omtsha ngaphakathi kwenu, ndithabathe iintliziyo zenu zamatye, ndininike intliziyo yenyama. Ndiya kufaka umoya wam ngaphakathi kwenu ndize ndinenze niphile ngokwemimiselo yam, ndinigcine niyenze imithetho yam ( Ezek 26, 27 51 ). Elinye icebiso lifumaneka kwiNdumiso XNUMX edumileyo, ethi, “Miserere”, apho sibongoza sisithi: Musa ukundilahla ebusweni bakho, Ungandihluthi uMoya wakho.
UMoya weNkosi uqala ukumila njengamandla otshintsho lwangaphakathi, oluguqula umntu kwaye lumphakamise ngaphezu kobungendawo bakhe bendalo.
Amandla angaqondakaliyo. Kodwa kwiTestamente eNdala iimpawu zobuntu zoMoya oyiNgcwele azikachazwa. USt. Gregory Nazianzen wanikela le ngcaciso yantlandlolo yendlela uMoya Oyingcwele azityhila ngayo: “KwiTestamente Endala wathi sasimazi ngokucacileyo uYise (uThixo, uMdali) yaye saqalisa ukumazi uNyana (eneneni, kwezinye iimeko sasimazi kakuhle uYise (uThixo, uMdali). imibhalo kamesiya sele ithetha ngaye, nokuba ikwindlela egqunyiweyo).
KwiTestamente eNtsha simazi ngokucacileyo uNyana kuba waba yinyama waza wangena phakathi kwethu. Kodwa nathi siqala ukuthetha ngoMoya oyiNgcwele. UYesu uxelela abafundi ukuba, emva kwakhe, uMthetheleli uya kuza.
Ekugqibeleni iSt. Gregory ihlala ithi ngexesha leCawa (emva kovuko), uMoya oyiNgcwele uphakathi kwethu kwaye sinokumazi. Le yimfundiso kaThixo, indlela yakhe yokuqhubeka: ngesi singqi esithe ngcembe, esiphantse sidlule ekukhanyeni siye ekukhanyeni, sifikelele ekukhanyeni okupheleleyo koBathathu Emnye.
ITestamente eNdala yonganyelwe nguMoya oyiNgcwele. Kwelinye icala, asinakulibala ukuba iincwadi zeTestamente eNdala ngokwazo zingowona mqondiso mkhulu woMoya kuba, ngokwemfundiso yobuKristu, ziphefumlelwe nguye.
Isenzo sakhe sokuqala kukusinika iBhayibhile, ethetha ngaYe nomsebenzi waKhe ezintliziyweni zabantu. Xa sivula ibhayibhile ngokholo, hayi njengabafundi kuphela okanye sifuna ukwazi nje, sidibana nomoya oyimfihlakalo woMoya. Asiyonto nje eqhubekayo, amava angabonakaliyo. AmaKristu amaninzi, efunda iBhayibhile, eva ivumba loMoya kwaye akholelwa ngokunzulu: "Eli lizwi lithetha kum. Kukukhanya kobomi bam”.
