Ukucamngca namhlanje: Imfihlakalo ihlala intsha
ILizwi likaThixo laveliswa ngokwasenyameni kube kanye. Ngoku, ngenxa yobubele bakhe emntwini, unqwenela ukuzalwa ngokwasemoyeni kwabo bamfunayo kwaye abe ngumntwana okhula ngokukhula kweempawu zabo ezintle. Iyazibonakalisa kuloo nqanaba umamkeli ayaziyo ukuba inako. Ayithinteli umbono omkhulu wobukhulu bayo ngenxa yomona nomona, kodwa kububulumko, phantse ukulinganisa, amandla abo banqwenela ukuwubona. Kungoko iLizwi likaThixo, ngelixa lizibonakalisa ukuya kuthi ga kwabo bathatha inxaxheba kulo, nangona kunjalo lihlala lihleli lingenakucaciswa kubo bonke, xa unikwe imfihlelo ephakamileyo. Ngesi sizathu uMpostile kaThixo, ethathela ingqalelo ngobulumko ukubaluleka kwemfihlakalo, uthi: "UYesu Kristu ukwanguye izolo, nanamhlanje, nangonaphakade!" (Heb 13,8), oko kuthetha ukuba imfihlakalo ihlala iintsha kwaye ayinakuze ibe nokuqonda kwengqondo yomntu.
UKristu uThixo uzelwe kwaye abe ngumntu, ethatha umzimba onikwe umphefumlo okrelekrele, yena, owayevumele izinto ukuba ziphume kokungekhoyo. Ukusuka empuma, inkwenkwezi ekhanya emini ebakhokelayo ikhokela amadoda azizilumko kwindawo apho iLizwi lithathe inyama, ukubonisa ngokungummangaliso ukuba iLizwi eliqulathwe emthethweni nakubaprofeti lidlula lonke ulwazi lwengqiqo kwaye likhokelela abantu kolona lwazi luphezulu.
Ngapha koko, ilizwi lomthetho nelabaprofeti, kwinkangeleko yenkwenkwezi, liqondwe ngokuchanekileyo, likhokelela ekwamkelweni kweLizwi elingumzimba wabo bathi ngenxa yobabalo babizwe ngokwemvume yobuthixo.
UThixo uba yindoda egqibeleleyo, engatshintshi kwinto engokwasendalweni yomntu, ukuba siyasusa, sithetha isono, ekungekho kuso. Uba yindoda yokucaphukisa inamba enganyolukiyo enganyamezelekiyo ukuba idle amaxhoba ayo obuntu bukaKristu. Ewe, uKristu umnika inyama yakhe ukuba ayidle. Kodwa loo nyama kwafuneka ijike ibe yityhefu kumtyholi. Inyama yasibhukuqa ngokupheleleyo isigebenga ngamandla obuThixo awayefihlwe kuso. Ngokwemvelo yomntu, kwelinye icala, ibiya kuba sisicombululo, kuba ngeyibuyisele kubabalo lwantlandlolo ngamandla obuThixo obukhoyo kuyo.
Kuba kanye njengokuba inamba, eyifakileyo ityhefu yayo kumthi wesayensi, yabonakalisa abantu, yabenza ukuba bayingcamle, kwangokunjalo, becinga ukuba bayayidla inyama yeNkosi, yonakala yaza yabhukuqwa ngamandla obuThixo owawukuyo.
Kodwa imfihlelo enkulu yokuzalwa kukaThixo ihleli iyimfihlakalo. Ewe, lingenzeka njani iLizwi, elisemzimbeni wakhe, lisemzimbeni omnye, libe ngaxeshanye njengomntu kwaye lonke libe kuYise? Ngokunjalo, kwa elo Lizwi linye, linguThixo ngokupheleleyo ngendalo, libe ngumntu ngokupheleleyo ngendalo? Kwaye oku ngaphandle kokulahla konke konke kubume bobuThixo, kuba enguThixo, okanye kweyethu, awathi waba ngumntu ngayo?
Ukholo lulodwa lufikelela kwezi mfihlakalo, lona lusisiqalelo nesiseko sezo zinto zingaphaya kokuqonda kwengqondo yomntu.
