Ngabe kubukeka kanjani ukukhululeka esonweni?
Wake wayibona indlovu iboshwe esigxotsheni futhi uzibuze ukuthi kungani intambo encane kangaka nesigxobo ezintekenteke zingabamba indlovu ekhulile? KwabaseRoma 6: 6 bathi: "Asisazigqili isono." Kodwa-ke kwesinye isikhathi, njengaleyo ndlovu, sizizwa singenamandla phambi kwesilingo.
Ukwehluleka kungasenza singabaze insindiso yethu. Ngabe umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu kimi uhlala ngoKristu? Yini inkinga kimi?
Imidlwane yezindlovu iqeqeshelwe ukuzithoba. Imizimba yabo emincane ayikwazi ukuhambisa okuthunyelwe okuqinile kwensimbi. Ngokushesha bafunda ukuthi alikho iphuzu lokumelana nalo. Lapho isikhulile, indlovu enkulu ayisazami ngisho nokumelana nesigxobo, ngisho nangemva kokuba iketanga elinamandla lifakwe esikhundleni ngentambo emincane nesigxobo esibuthakathaka. Kuhlala sengathi lesi sigxobo esincane siyakulawula.
Njengaleyo ndlovu encane, sinesimo sokuzithoba esonweni. Ngaphambi kokufika kuKristu, isono sasilawula imicabango yethu, imizwelo nezenzo zethu. Futhi ngenkathi amaRoma 6 ethi amakholwa "akhululwe esonweni," abaningi bethu njengaleyo ndlovu esikhulile bakholelwa ukuthi isono sinamandla kunathi.
Ukuqonda ukubambelela kwengqondo isono esinakho, lesi sahluko esikhulu siyasichazela ukuthi kungani sikhululekile esonweni futhi sisibonisa ukuthi singaphila kanjani kuso.
Yazi iqiniso
"Kufanele sithini-ke? Ngabe sizoqhubeka ukona ukuze umusa ukhuphuke? Ngaphandle kwencazelo! Yithina efile esonweni; singaphila kanjani lapho? "(Roma 6: 1-2).
UJesu wathi iqiniso lizokukhulula. AmaRoma 6 anikeza iqiniso elibalulekile mayelana nobunikazi bethu obusha kuKristu. Umgomo wokuqala ukuthi safa esonweni.
Ekuqaleni kokuhamba kwami kobuKristu, ngandlela thile ngeza nombono wokuthi isono kufanele sigoqeke futhi sizwakale sifile. Kodwa-ke, ukuheha ukungabekezeleli nokuzifisa ngezifiso zami zobugovu kwakusaphila kakhulu. Phawula ukuthi ubani owafa kumaRoma. Safela isono (Gal 2: 20). Isono sisaphila kakhulu.
Ukuqaphela ukuthi ubani ofile kusisiza ukuthi sihlukane nokulawulwa kwesono. Ngiyindalo entsha futhi angisafanele ngithobele amandla esono (Gal. 5: 16; 2 Kor. 5: 17). Ukubuyela emzekelisweni wendlovu, kuKristu, ngiyindlovu endala. UJesu wasika intambo eyangibopha esonweni. Isono asisangilawuli ngaphandle kokuthi siyinikeza amandla.
Ngafa nini isono?
“Anazi yini ukuthi sonke thina ababhapathizelwa kuKristu Jesu, sabhapathizelwa ekufeni kwakhe? Ngakho-ke sangcwatshwa naye ngokubhapathizelwa ekufeni, ukuze kuthi, njengoba noKristu avuka kwabafileyo ngenkazimulo kaYise, nathi siphile impilo entsha ”(Rom 6: 3-4).

Njengoba ngichazile encwadini yami, Thatha i-Break, “Ngezinsuku ezisebhayibhelini, lapho udayi wezindwangu ethatha ucezu lwendwangu emhlophe futhi ebhapathiza noma elufaka kubhavu obomvu obomvu, indwangu yayihlonzwa unomphela ngombala obomvu. Akekho obheka ihembe elibomvu athi, "Ihembe elihle elimhlophe elinedayi obomvu kulo." Cha, ihembe elibomvu. "
Okwamanje lapho sibeka ukholo lwethu kuKristu, sabhaphathizelwa kuKristu Jesu.UNkulunkulu akasibheki futhi akasiboni isoni sinobuhle obuncane bukaKristu. “Ubona osanta ohlanganiswe ngokuphelele nobulungiswa beNdodana yakhe. Esikhundleni sokusibiza ngokuthi siyizoni ezisindiswe ngomusa, kunemba ngokwengeziwe ukusho ukuthi sasiyizoni, kepha manje sesingcwele, sisindisiwe ngomusa, kwesinye isikhathi ona (2 KwabaseKhorinte 5:17). Ongakholwayo angakhombisa umusa futhi okholwayo angaba namawala, kepha uNkulunkulu ubakhombisa abantwana Bakhe ngobunjalo babo. "
UKristu wathwala isono sethu - hhayi esakhe - esiphambanweni. Amakholwa akhonjwa ngokufa kwakhe, ukungcwatshwa nokuvuka kwakhe. Lapho uKristu efa, ngafa (Gal 2: 20). Ngenkathi angcwatshwa, izono zami zingcwatshwa olwandle olujulile, zihlukaniswa nami kude nempumalanga ngasentshonalanga (AmaHubo 103: 12).
Lapho sizibona ngokwendlela uNkulunkulu asibona ngayo - njengabathandekayo, abanqobayo, nabantwana abangcwele bakaNkulunkulu - kulapho sikwazi khona ukumelana nokuthambekela esonweni. Ukwazi umongo wethu omusha ufuna ukujabulisa uNkulunkulu, futhi uyakwazi ukumjabulisa, kusiqinisa ukwenza izinqumo ezifanele ngamandla oMoya oNgcwele. Isipho sikaNkulunkulu sobulungiswa kuJesu sinamandla amakhulu kunamandla wesono (Rom 5: 17).
“Siyazi ukuthi izono zethu zakudala zabethelwa kanye noJesu ukuze isono siphelelwe amandla ezimpilweni zethu. Asisezona izigqila zesono. Ngoba lapho sifa kanye noKristu sakhululwa emandleni esono ”(Roma 6: 6-7).
Ngiphila kanjani ngikhululekile emandleni esono?
"Ngakho-ke kufanele futhi uzibone ufile ngamandla esono futhi uphilele uNkulunkulu ngoKristu Jesu" (Rom 6:11).
Akumele sazi iqiniso kuphela, kufanele siphile njengoba lokho uNkulunkulu akushoyo kuyiqiniso yize kungenjalo.
