Cinga namhlanje ngobunzulu bokholo lwakho nolwazi lwakho ngoMesiya
Wabayala abafundi bakhe, ukuba bangaxeleli bani; ukuba yena nguye uKristu. UMateyu 16:20
Eli binzana kwiVangeli yanamhlanje liza kwangoko emva kokuba uPetros enze uvumo lwakhe lokholo kuYesu njengoMesiya. UYesu naye uxelela uPetros ukuba "ululwalwa" kwaye uya kulakhela phezu kolu lwalwa ibandla lakhe. UYesu uqhubeka exelela uPetros ukuba uya kumnika "izitshixo zobukumkani". Emva koko uxelela uPetros nabanye abafundi ukuba bangazifihli.
Kwakutheni ukuze uYesu athethe into enjalo? Iyintoni inkuthazo yakho? Kubonakala ngathi uYesu angathanda ukuba baqhubele phambili, baxelele wonke umntu ukuba unguMesiya. Kodwa ayisiyiyo le nto iyitshoyo.
Esinye sezizathu zoku "Imfihlelo kaMesiya" kukuba uYesu akafuni igama lokuba ungubani ukusasaza ngokungacwangciswanga. Endaweni yoko, ufuna abantu beze bazokufumanisa ubuyena bakhe ngesipho esinamandla sokholo. Ufuna ukuba badibane naye, bavuleke emthandazweni kuyo yonke into ayithethayo kwaye emva koko bafumane isipho sokholo kuBawo oseZulwini.
Le ndlela yesazisi sakhe siyinyani ibonisa ukubaluleka kokumazi ngokobuqu ngokholo. Ekugqibeleni, emva kokufa kuka Yesu, uvuko nokwenyukela kwakhe ezulwini, abafundi babizelwa phambili nokushumayela elubala malunga nokuba ngubani uYesu.Kodwa ngeli lixa uYesu wayenabo, waziswa ebantwini ngo ukudibana kwabo naye.
Nangona sonke sibizelwe ekuvakaliseni uKrestu ngokuvulekileyo nangokuqhubekekayo kumhla wethu, ubunikazi bakhe bokwenene busenokuqondwa kwaye bakholelwe kuphela ngokudibana nomntu. Xa simva evakalisa, kufuneka sivuleleke kubukho bakhe obungcwele, size kuthi kwaye sithethe nathi kubunzulu bobukho bethu. Nguye, kwaye nguye yedwa, okwaziyo "ukusiqinisekisa" ukuba ungubani na. Nguye kuphela uMesiya, uNyana kaThixo ophilileyo, njengoko watshoyo uSt. Kufuneka size kule nto siyibonayo ngokudibana kwethu naye ezintliziyweni zethu.
Cinga namhlanje ngobunzulu bokholo lwakho nolwazi lwakho lukaMesiya. Uyakholelwa kuye ngamandla akho onke? Ngaba wamvumela uYesu ukuba atyhile ubukho bakhe kuwe? Zama ukufumanisa "imfihlelo" yesazisi sakhe sokwenyani ngokumamela uBawo othetha nawe entliziyweni yakho. Kulapho kuphela apho uya kuba nokholo kuNyana kaThixo.
Nkosi, ndiyakholelwa ukuba wena unguye uKristu, uMesiya, uNyana kaThixo ophilileyo! Ndincede ukuswela kwam ukholo ukuze ndikholelwe kuwe kwaye ndikuthande ngomphefumlo wam uphela. Ndimeme, Nkosi yam ethandekayo, kubunzulu bentliziyo yakho undivumele ndiphumle apho ngokholo kunye nawe. UYesu ndiyakholelwa kuwe.
