Imfihlakalo yempilo yethu entsha
UJobe obusisiwe, ngokuba ngumuntu weSonto Elingcwele, kwesinye isikhathi ukhuluma ngezwi lomzimba, kwesinye isikhathi kunalokho ngezwi lekhanda. Futhi njengoba ekhuluma ngezitho zakhe zomzimba, uvuka masinyane kumazwi omholi. Ngakho-ke futhi lapha kuyangezwa: Lokhu ngiyahlupheka, kepha nokho akukho dlame ezandleni zami futhi umkhuleko wami ubumsulwa (cf. uJobe 16:17).
UKristu eqinisweni wahlupheka inkanuko futhi wakhuthazelela ukuhlushwa kwesiphambano ukuze asikhulule, yize engazange enze ubudlova ngezandla zakhe, noma isono, futhi kwakungekho nkohliso emlonyeni wakhe. Nguye kuphela kubo bonke owaphakamisa umthandazo wakhe kuNkulunkulu omsulwa, ngoba ngisho nasekuhluphekeni kothando akuthandazela abashushisi, ethi: "Baba, bathethelele, ngoba abakwazi abakwenzayo" (Lk 23:34).
Yini umuntu angayisho, yini umuntu angayicabanga imsulwa kunokuncengela komuntu ngesihe esivuna labo abasenza sihlupheke?
Kwenzeka-ke ukuthi igazi loMhlengi wethu, elachithwa ngonya ngabashushisi, labe selithathwa yibo ngokholo futhi uKristu wamenyezelwa yiNdodana kaNkulunkulu.
Kuleli gazi, kuze kube seqophelweni, siyanezela: "O mhlaba, ungalimbozi igazi lami nokukhala kwami kungenzeka kungapheli." Indoda enesono yatshelwa: Ungumhlaba futhi uzobuyela emhlabeni (bheka uGenesise 3:19). Kepha umhlaba awulifihlanga igazi loMhlengi wethu, ngoba isoni ngasinye, sithatha inani lokuhlengwa kwaso, simenza into yokholo lwayo, indumiso yakhe nokumemezela kwakhe kwabanye.
Umhlaba awulimbozanga igazi lakhe, nangenxa yokuthi iSonto elingcwele selishumayele imfihlakalo yokuhlengwa kwakhe kuzo zonke izingxenye zomhlaba.
Kufanele kuqashelwe-ke lokho okufakiwe: "Futhi kwangathi ukukhala kwami kunganqamuki". Igazi lokuhlengwa elithathwa njengokukhala koMhlengi wethu. Ngakho-ke uPawule ubuye akhulume "ngegazi lokufafaza ngezwi eliqephuzayo kunalelo lika-Abela" (Heb 12:24). Manje ngegazi lika-Abela kuthiwa: "Izwi legazi lomfowenu liyakhala kimi lisemhlabathini" (Gen 4:10).
Kepha igazi likaJesu likhuluma kakhulu kunalelo lika-Abela, ngoba igazi lika-Abela lalifuna ukufa kwe-fratricide, kanti igazi leNkosi lalincenga impilo yabashushisi.
Ngakho-ke kufanele silingise lokho esikutholayo futhi sishumayele kwabanye lokho esikukhonzayo, ukuze imfihlakalo yokulangazelela kweNkosi ingabi yize kithi.
Uma umlomo ungakumemezeli okukholwa yinhliziyo, ngisho nokukhala kwaso kuyancishwa. Kepha ukuze ukukhala kwakhe kungambozwa kithina, kuyadingeka ukuthi ngamunye, ngokwamandla akhe, afakaze kubafowethu bemfihlakalo yempilo yakhe entsha.
