Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu phakathi kwabantu ungehlukaniswe nomuntu uqobo, ngoba umuntu uyinjongo yomsebenzi Wakhe, futhi nguye kuphela isidalwa esenziwe uNkulunkulu esingafakaza kuNkulunkulu. Impilo yomuntu kanye nayo yonke imisebenzi yomuntu akunakwehlukaniswa noNkulunkulu, futhi konke kulawulwa izandla zikaNkulunkulu, futhi kungaze kuthiwe akekho umuntu ophila engancikanga kuNkulunkulu. Akekho umuntu ongakuphika lokhu, ngoba kuyiqiniso. Konke okwenziwa uNkulunkulu ukwenzela ukuthi kuzuze isintu, futhi kuqondiswe emaqhingeni kaSathane. Konke okudingwa umuntu kuvela kuNkulunkulu, futhi uNkulunkulu uwumthombo wempilo yomuntu. Ngakho, umuntu akakwazi ukuqhela kuNkulunkulu. Ngaphezu kwalokho, uNkulunkulu akakaze abe nenhloso yokuqhela kumuntu. Umsebenzi owenziwa uNkulunkulu uwenzela isintu sisonke, futhi imicabango Yakhe ihlala inomusa. Ngakho kumuntu, umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu kanye nemicabango kaNkulunkulu (okuyintando kaNkulunkulu) kokubili "kuyimibono" okumele yaziwe umuntu. Imibono enjalo iphinde ibe ngukuphatha kukaNkulunkulu, futhi umsebenzi ongenziwe umuntu. Izimfuneko uNkulunkulu azenza kumuntu ngenkathi enza umsebenzi Wakhe, khona manjalo, zibizwa ngokuthi "ukwenza" komuntu. Imibono iwumsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uqobo, noma iyintando Yakhe ngesintu noma izinhloso kanye nokubaluleka koMsebenzi Wakhe. Kungaphinde kuthiwe imibono iyingxenye yokuphatha, ngoba lokhu kuphatha kungumsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, futhi kuqondiswe kumuntu, okusho ukuthi lokho kuwumsebenzi owenziwa uNkulunkulu kumuntu. Lo msebenzi uwubufakazi kanye nendlela umuntu azi ngayo uNkulunkulu, futhi usemqoka kumuntu. Uma, esikhundleni sokunaka ulwazi lomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, abantu benaka izimfundiso ngokukholwa kuNkulunkulu kuphela, noma imininingwane engatheni nengabalulekile, kusho ukuthi ngeke baze bamazi uNkulunkulu, futhi, phezu kwalokho, ngeke baze bakulangazelele ukuthandwa nguNkulunkulu. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uwusizo olukhulu kakhulu olwazini lomuntu ngoNkulunkulu, futhi ubizwa ngokuthi imibono. Le mibono iwumsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, intando kaNkulunkulu, futhi izinhloso nokubalulekile emsebenzini kaNkulunkulu; konke kuwusizo kumuntu. Ukwenza kusho lokho okumele kwenziwe umuntu, lokho okumele kwenziwe izidalwa ezilandela uNkulunkulu. Kuphinde kube wumsebenzi womuntu. Okumele kwenziwe umuntu akusiyo into eyayiqondwa umuntu kusukela ekuqaleni, kodwa yilokho okudingekayo uNkulunkulu akwenza kumuntu ngeNkathi enza umsebenzi Wakhe. Lezi zidingo ziye ngokuya zijula futhi ziphakama ngenkathi uNkulunkulu esebenza. Isibonelo, ngeNkathi Yomthetho, kwakumele umuntu alandele umthetho, futhi ngeNkathi Yomusa, umuntu kwadingeka ukuthi athwale isiphambano. INkathi Yombuso yehlukile: Okudingeka kumuntu kungaphezu kwalokho okwakudingeka ngeNkathi YoMthetho NangeNkathi Yomusa. Ngenkathi imibono ikhushulwa, okudingeka kumuntu kuba sezingeni eliphakeme, futhi kuba sobala kakhulu futhi kube ngokwempela. Kanjalo, imibono iba yinto yangempela kakhulu. Le mibono yangempela eminingi idala ukuthi umuntu alalele uNkulunkulu kuphela, kodwa, phezu kwalokho, yakha ulwazi lwakhe ngoNkulunkulu.
Uma kuqhathaniswa nezinkathi ezedlule, umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ngeNkathi Yombuso uyinto engenzeka kalula, uqondiswe kakhulu engqikithini yomuntu kanye nasekuguquleni isimo sakhe, futhi ukwazi kangcono ukuba wufakazi kaNkulunkulu uqobo kubo bonke abamlandelayo. Ngamanye amazwi, ngeNkathi Yombuso, njengoba esebenza, uNkulunkulu uziveza kakhulu kumuntu ngaphezu kwalokho ake wakwenza ngaphambilini, okusho ukuthi imibono okumele yaziwe ngabantu iphakeme kakhulu kuneyesikhathi sangaphambili. Ngenxa yokuthi umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu kubantu ungene endaweni okungakaze kungenwe kuyo, imibono eyaziwa abantu ngeNkathi Yombuso iphakeme kunawo wonke umsebenzi wokuphatha. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu sewungene endaweni okungakaze kungene kuyo, ngakho imibono eyaziwa abantu seyibe yimibono ephakeme kunayo yonke, futhi ukwenza kwabantu okuvele ngayo nakho kuphakeme kunesikhathi sangaphambili, ngoba ukwenza komuntu ziguquka ngezigaba nemibono, futhi ukulungisiswa kwemibono nakho kuveza ukulungisiswa kwalokho okudingeka kumuntu. Kuzothi lapho konke ukuphatha kukaNkulunkulu sekufika lapho kuma khona, kanjalo nezenzo zomuntu zizokuma, futhi ngaphandle komsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, umuntu uzophoqeleka ukuthi agcine imfundiso yesikhathi sakudala, kungenjalo uyophelelwa umgodi wokucasha. Ngaphandle kwemibono emisha, akuzukuba khona zenzo ezintsha ezizokwenziwa umuntu, ngaphandle kwemibono ephelele, akuzukuba khona zenzo ezilungisisiwe ezizokwenziwa umuntu; ngaphandle kwemibono ephakeme, akuzukuba khona zenzo eziphakeme ezenziwa umuntu. Ukwenza komuntu kuguquka nezinyathelo zikaNkulunkulu, futhi, kanjalo, ulwazi kanye nalokho umuntu abhekana nakho kuguquka ngokomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu. Noma ngabe umuntu ukwazi ukwenza kangakanani, kodwa akehlukaniseki noNkulunkulu, futhi uma uNkulunkulu engase ayeke ukusebenza nje isikhashana, umuntu angafa ngaso leso sikhathi ngenxa yolaka Lwakhe. Umuntu akanalutho angakloloda ngalo, ngoba noma lungaphakama kangakanani ulwazi lomuntu namuhla, noma lunganzulu kangakanani ngalokho adlule kukho ngaphambilini, lungehlukaniseke nomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu - ngoba ukwenza komuntu, kanye nalokho okumele akufune ekukholweni kwakhe kuNkulunkulu, kungehlukaniswe nemibono. Kuzo zonke izinyathelo zomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu kunemibono okumele yaziwe umuntu, imibono elandelwa yilokho okufanele okufunwa nguNkulunkulu kumuntu. Ngaphandle kwale mibono njengesisekelo, umuntu ubengeke akwazi ukwenza lutho, noma ubengeke umuntu akwazi ukulandela uNkulunkulu ngokungangabazi. Uma umuntu engamazi uNkulunkulu noma engayiqondi intando kaNkulunkulu, konke okwenziwa umuntu kuyize, futhi bekungeke kukwazi ukugunyazwa uNkulunkulu. Noma ngabe iziphiwo zomuntu ziningi kangakanani, nalapho angehlukaniswe nomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu kanye nokuholwa uNkulunkulu. Ngisho kungakuhle kangakanani noma kungaba kuningi kangakani ukwenza komuntu, ngeke kukwazi ukuthatha indawo yomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu. Ngakho, ayikho nhlobo indlela ukwenza komuntu okungahlukaniswa ngayo nemibono. Labo abangayemukeli imibono emisha abanakho ukwenza okusha. Ukwenza kwabo akuhlobene neqiniso ngoba kulandela izimfundiso futhi kugcina umthetho ofile; akunamibono emisha nhlobo, futhi ngenxa yalokho, akwenzi lutho ngalokho okwenzeka enkathini entsha. Balahlekelwe imibono, futhi ngokwenza njalo balahlekelwe umsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele, futhi balahlekelwe iqiniso. Labo abangenalo iqiniso bayinzalo yento engasile, bayisiqu sikaSathane. Noma ngabe umuntu uwuhlobo luni lomuntu, ngeke akwazi ukungabi nemibono yomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, futhi ngeke ancishwe ubukhona bukaMoya oNgcwele; lapho nje umuntu elahlekelwa imibono, wehlela eHayidesi ngaleso sikhathi futhi aphile ebumnyameni. Abantu abangenayo imibono yilabo abalandela uNkulunkulu ngobuwula, bayilabo abangenawo umsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele futhi baphila esihogweni. Abantu abanjalo abalilandeli iqiniso, futhi balengisa igama likaNkulunkulu njengophawu nje. Labo abangawazi umsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele, abangamazi uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu, abangazazi izigaba ezintathu zomsebenzi kukho konke ukuphatha kukaNkulunkulu - abayazi imibono, ngakho abanalo iqiniso. Futhi ngabe labo abangenalo iqiniso abayibo abenzi bobubi? Labo abazimisele ngokwenza iqiniso, abazimisele ngokufuna ulwazi ngoNkulunkulu, ababambisene noNkulunkulu bangabantu imibono eyisisekelo sabo. Bamukelwe uNkulunkulu ngoba basebenzisana noNkulunkulu, futhi yilokhu kusebenzisana okumele kwenziwe ngumuntu.
Imibono iqukethe izindlela eziningi okumele zilandelwe. Okuphathekayo okufuneka kubantu kuphinde kuqukathwe yimibono, njengawo umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu okumele waziwe abantu. Ngaphambili, emihlanganweni ekhethekile noma imihlangano emikhulu eyayibanjwa ezindaweni ezihlukahlukene, kwakukhulunywa ngengxenye eyodwa kwendlela yokwenza. Lokhu kwenza kwakuba yilokho okwakuzokwenziwa ngeNkathi Yomusa, futhi kwakuhlobene kancane kakhulu nolwazi ngoNkulunkulu, ngoba imibono yeNkathi Yomusa kwakuwumbono wokubethelwa kukaJesu kuphela, futhi yayingekho imibono emikhulu kunalona. Umuntu kwakungafanele azi okungaphezulu komsebenzi Wakhe wokuhlenga isintu ngokubethelwa, ngakho ngeNkathi Yomusa yayingekho eminye imibono yokulandelwa ngumuntu. Ngale ndlela, umuntu wayenolwazi oluncane ngoNkulunkulu, futhi ngale kolwazi ngothando lukaJesu kanye nozwelo, kwakunezinto ezimbalwa ezilula nezidabukisayo okwakumele azenze, izinto ezaziqhelelene kakhulu nesikhathi sanamuhla. Phambilini, noma ngabe kwakuhlangenwe ngayiphi indlela, umuntu wayengakwazi ukukhuluma ngolwazi lwangokoqobo lomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, engeke akwazi nokusho ngokucacile ukuthi iyiphi indlela yokwenza efanele umuntu okwakumele ayithathe. Wayedamane engeza imininingwane elula esisekelweni sokulalela nokubekezela; kwakungekho nguquko etheni engqikithini yokwenza kwakhe, ngoba ngaso leso sikhathi uNkulunkulu akazange enze msebenzi omusha, futhi ayekudinga nje kumuntu kwakuwukulalela nokubekezela, noma ukuthwala isiphambano. Ngaphandle kwalezi zenzo, ayikho imibono engaphezu kwokubethelewa kukaJesu. Ngaphambili, kwakungakhulunywa ngeminye imibono ngoba uNkulunkulu wayengazange enze msebenzi omkhulu, futhi wayefuna okumbalwa kumuntu. Ngale ndlela, ngisho noma umuntu wayenzeni, wayengakwazi ukweqa le mingcele, imingcele eyayizinto ezilula ukuthi umuntu azenze. Namuhla ngikhuluma ngeminye imibono ngoba namuhla, sekwenziwe umsebenzi omningi, umsebenzi ophindaphindeke kaningi kunalowo weNkathi Yomthetho kanye neNkathi Yomusa. Okudingekayo kumuntu, nakho, kuphindaphindeke kaningi kunezinkathi zakudala. Uma umuntu engakwazi ukwazi lo msebenzi ngokugcwele, kuyobe kusho ukuthi awukho semqoka; kungathiwa umuntu uyoba nobunzima bokwazi ngokugcwele umsebenzi onje uma enganikeli ngamandla aso sonke isikhathi sokuphila kwakhe ukuthi azame ukuluthola. Emsebenzini wokunqoba, ukukhuluma ngendlela yokwenza kuphela kungenza ukunqotshwa komuntu kungenzeki. Ukukhuluma ngemibono nje, kube kungadingeke lutho kumuntu, nakho kungenza ukunqoba umuntu kungenzeki. Uma kungakhulunywanga lutho ngaphandle kwendlela yokwenza, kuyodala ukuthi ingabikho indlela yokunemba ebuthakathakeni bomuntu, noma ukukhipha imicabango yomuntu, futhi angeke kuphunyelelwe nhlobo ekunqobeni umuntu. Imibono iyithuluzi elibalulekile ekunqotshweni komuntu, nokho uma ibingekho indlela yokwenza ngaphandle kwemibono, bekuyosho ukuthi umuntu akazukuba nandlela yokulandela, futhi akazukuba nayo indlela yokungena. Lokhu bekulokhu kuyisimiso somsebenzi kaNkulunkulu kusukela ekuqaleni kuze kube sekugcineni: Emibonweni kunalokho okungenziwa, futhi ikhona imibono eyenezela ekwenzeni. Izinga lokuguquka empilweni yomuntu kanye nasesimweni sakhe kuhambisana noguquko lwemibono. Ukuba umuntu ubethembela emizamweni yakhe kuphela, ngabe impela ubengeke akwazi ukuthola izinga elikhulu lokkuguquka. Imibono ikhuluma ngomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uqobo kanye nokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu. Ukwenza kumayelana nendlela umuntu enza ngayo, kanye nendlela yobukhona bomuntu; kukho konke ukuphatha kukaNkulunkulu, ubudlelwano phakathi kwemibono kanye nezenzo kuwubudlelwano phakathi kukaNkulunkulu nomuntu. Uma beyingase isuswe imibono, noma ukuba bekukhulunywa ngayo ngaphandle kokukhuluma ngokwenza, noma ukuba bekuyimibono nje kodwa ukwenza komuntu kungekho, ngakho lezo zinto bezingethathwe njengokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu, futhi bekungethiwe umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu wenzelwe isintu; ngale ndlela, umsebenzi womuntu ubungeke ususwe kuphela, kodwa bewuzobe uphika inhloso yomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu. Ukuba, kwasekuqaleni kuze kube sekugcineni, umuntu kwakudingeke nje ukuze enze, ngaphandle kokubandakanya umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, futhi, phezu kwalokho, ukuba umuntu ubengadingeki ukuthi azi umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, bekuyoba kuncane kakhulu ukuba ubizwe ngokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu. Ukuba umuntu ubengamazi uNkulunkulu, futhi engayazi intando kaNkulunkulu, futhi eqhubeka nezenzo zakhe engaboni enza ngendlela engasile nengaqondile, ubengeke aze abe yisidalwa esifaneleke ngokugcwele. Futhi, lezi zinto ezimbili zingehlukaniseke. Ukuba bekunomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu kuphela, okuwukuthi, ukuba bekunemibono kuphela futhi ukuba bekungekho ukusebenzisana noma okwenziwa umuntu, lezi zinto bezingebizwe ngokuthi ukuphatha kukaNkulunkulu. Ukuba bekunezenzo kanye nokungena komuntu kuphela, noma ngabe indlela umuntu angena kuyo iphakeme kangakanani, nalokhu, bekungeke kwamukeleke. Ukungena komuntu kumele kuye ngokuya kuguquka ngokuhambisana nomsebenzi kanye nemibono; kungeguqukee ngokuthanda kwakhe. Imigomo yokwenza komuntu ayikhululekile futhi ayenzi umathanda, kodwa iphansi kwezibopho ezithile. Imigomo enjalo iyaguquka ngokuhambisana nemibono yomsebenzi. Ngakho ukuphathwa komsebenzi kaNkulunkulu kugcina kuwumsebenzi kaNkulunkulu kanye nezenzo zomuntu.
Umsebenzi wokuphatha weza ngenxa yesintu, okusho ukuthi wadalwa ubukhona besintu. Kwakungekho ukuphatha ngaphambi kwesintu, noma ekuqaleni, ngenkathi kudalwa amazulu nomhlaba nakho konke. Ukuba, kuwo wonke umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, kwakungekho ukwenza okwakungaba yinzuzo kumuntu, okuwukuthi, uma uNkulunkulu wayengazenzanga izidingo ezifanele isintu esikhohlakele (ukuba, emsebenzini owenziwa uNkulunkulu, kwayingekho ndlela efanele ukuthi umuntu ayilandele ), kusho ukuthi lo msebenzi bewungebizwe ngokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu. Ukuba umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uwonke bewubandakanya kuphela ukutshela isintu esikhohlakele ukuthi siqhubeke kanjani nokwenza kwaso, futhi uNkulunkulu engaqhubekanga nomsebenzi WLakhe, futhi engabonakalisanga luphawu sokuba namandla onke Kwakhe noma ubuhlakani, kwakuyosho ukuthi noma kungaphakama kangakanani okudingwa uNkulunkulu kumuntu, ngisho uNkulunkulu wayengaphila isikhathi esingakanani phakathi kwabantu, umuntu ubengeke azi lutho ngesimo sikaNkulunkulu; ukuba bekunjalo, umsebenzi walolu hlobo bewungeke ufaneleke kakhudlwana ukubizwa ngokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu. Ukukubeka kalula, umsebenzi wokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu wumsebenzi owenziwa uNkulunkulu, futhi wonke umsebenzi owenziwa ngaphansi kokuqondisa kukaNkulunkulu yilabo abazuzwe uNkulunkulu. Umsebenzi onjalo ungafinyezwa ngokuthi uwukuphatha, futhi kushiwo umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ophakathi kwabantu, kanjalo nokubambisana okuphakathi Kwakhe kanye nalabo abamlandelayo; konke lokhu kuhlanganisiwe kungabizwa ngokuphatha. Lapha, umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ubizwa ngemibono, futhi ukusebenzisana nomuntu kubizwa ngokwenza. Uma umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uphakeme (okusho, imibono ephakeme), isimo sikaNkulunkulu naso sizocaciswa ngokuthe xaxa kumuntu, futhi lokho kuphambana kakhulu nokucabanga komuntu, futhi uma nezenzo zizophakama kakhulu kanjalo nokwenza nokusebenzisana nomuntu. Uma kudingeka okuphakeme kumuntu, nomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uyakhula ekuphambaneni nemicabango yomuntu, okungenxa yakho iukuthi zilingo zomuntu, kanye nezilinganiso okudingeka ukuthi ahlangabezane nazo, nazo ziyaphakama. Ekuqedweni kwalo msebenzi, yonke imibono iyobe isiqediwe, futhi lokho okudingeka umuntu akwenze kuyobe sekufinyelele esicongweni sokuphelela. Lesi kuyobe futhi kuyisikhathi lapho konke kuyobekwa ngokwezinhlobo zakho, ngoba lokho obekumele kwaziwe umuntu uyobe esekhonjisiwe khona. Ngakho, uma imibono ifinyelela ekupheleleni, umsebenzi uyobe ususondela ekupheleni kwawo, futhi ukwenza komuntu nakho kuyobe sekufike esicongweni. Ukwenza komuntu kusekelwe emsebenzini kaNkulunkulu, futhi ukuphatha kukaNkulunkulu kubonakaliswa ngokugcwele ngenxa yokwenza komuntu kanye nokubamba iqhaza komuntu. Umuntu ungumsebenzi kaNkulunkulu aziqhenya ngawo, kanye nenjongo yomsebenzi wokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu uwonke, futhi uphinde abe umkhiqizo wokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu uwonke. Ukuba uNkulunkulu ubesebenza yedwa, ngaphandle kokubambisana nomuntu, bekungeke kube khona lutho obekuyocacisa isimo somsebenzi Wakhe uwonke, futhi ngale ndlela bekungeke kube khona ngisho okukodwa obekuzobonakalisa ukubaluleka kokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu. Kungokukhetha kuphela into efanele engaphandle komsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, futhi okungabonakalisa lo msebenzi, futhi kufakazele ukuba namandla onke nobuhlakani bakho, lapho kungenzeka khona ukufeza inhloso yokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu, nokufeza inhloso yokusebenzisa wonke lo mseben ukunqoba uSathane ngokuphelele. Ngakho, umuntu uyingxenye yomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu engelahlwe, futhi umuntu nguye kuphela ongenza ukuphatha kukaNkulunkulu kuthele izithelo futhi kufeze inhloso nqangi yakho; ngaphandle komuntu, akukho okunye okuphilayo okungabamba leli qhaza. Uma umuntu engaba ubufakazi obuyiqiniso bomsebenzi wokuphatha, ukungalaleli kwesintu esikhohlakele bekuyoqedwa nya. Lokhu kubiza ukuthi umuntu anikwe ukwenza okufanele kwezikhathi ezahlukene, nokuthi uNkulunkulu enze umsebenzi ohambisana nalokho phakathi kwabantu. Yile ndlela kuphela okuyotholakala ngayo iqembu labantu abayofakazela umsebenzi wokuphatha. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu phakathi kwabantu ungebe wubufakazi ngoNkulunkulu uqobo ngomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu wodwa; lobo bufakazi nabo budinga abantu abaphilayo abafanelwe umsebenzi Wakhe ukuze bufezeke. UNkulunkulu uyoqala asebenze kulaba bantu, okuyobonakaliswa umsebenzi Wakhe ngabo, futhi ngalokhu lobo bufakazi buyotholakala phakathi kwezidalwa. Futhi kulokhu, uNkulunkulu uyobe eseyifezile inhloso yomsebenzi Wakhe. UNkulunkulu akasebenzi yedwa ukuze anqobe uSathane ngoba ngeke azifakazele yena mathupha phakathi kwazo zonke izidalwa. Ukuba ubeyokwenza njalo, bekungeke kwenzeke ukuthi umuntu akholwe ngokugcwele, ngakho uNkulunkulu kumele asebenze kumuntu ukuze amnqobe, futhi kuyoba ngaleso sikhathi kuphela lapha eyokwazi ukuthola ubufakazi phakathi kwazo zonke izidalwa. Ukuba uNkulunkulu ubezosebenza eyedwa, futhi kungekho ukubambisana nomuntu, noma ukuba umuntu bekungadingeki ukuthi asebenzisane Naye, ngalokho umuntu ubengeke asazi isimo sikaNkulunkulu, futhi ubeyohlala engazi ngentando kaNkulunkulu; ngale ndlela, bekungeke kuze kubizwe ngomsebenzi wokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu. Ukuba nje umuntu uqobo ubezophokophela, futhi afune, futhi asebenze ngokuzikhandla, kodwa angawuqondi umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, bekuyobe kusho ukuthi umuntu uyazidlalela nje. Ngaphandle komsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele, okwenziwa umuntu kungokukaSathane, uyahlubuka futhi ungumenzi wobubi; uSathane ubonakaliswa kukho konke okwenziwa isintu esikhohlakele, futhi akukho okuhambisana noNkulunkulu, futhi konke kuwukubonakaliswa kukaSathane. Akukho nhlobo osekukhulunyiwe okungokwemibono nokwenza kuphela. Phezu kwesisekelo semibono, umuntu uthola ukwenza nendlela yokulalela, ukuze abeke ukuqonda kwakhe eceleni bese ethola izinto abengazange abe nazo ngaphambili. UNkulunkulu ufuna ukuthi umuntu asebenzisane Naye, ukuthi umuntu athobele izidingo Zakhe ngokuphelele, futhi umuntu ucela ukubona umsebenzi owenziwe uNkulunkulu uqobo, ezwe amandla amakhulu kaNkulunkulu, futhi azi isimo sikaNkulunkulu. Lokhu, uma kufinyezwa, kungukuphatha kukaNkulunkulu. Ukuhlanganyela kukaNkulunkulu nomuntu kungukuphatha, kanye nokuphatha okukhulu kakhulu.
Lokho okubandakanya imibono ikakhulu kusho imisebenzi kaNkulunkulu uqobo, futhi lokho kubandakanya ukwenza okumele kwenziwe umuntu, futhi akuhlangene nhlobo noNkulunkulu. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uqedelwa uNkulunkulu qobo, futhi ukwenza komuntu kufezwa umuntu uqobo. Lokho okumele kwenziwe uNkulunkulu uqobo akudingeki ukuthi kwenziwe umuntu, futhi lokho okumele kwenziwe umuntu akuhlangene noNkulunkulu. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uyinkonzo Yakhe yedwa, futhi ayihlangene nomuntu. Lo msebenzi akudingeke ukuthi wenziwe umuntu, futhi, phezu kwalokho, umuntu angeke akwazi ukwenza umsebenzi owenziwa uNkulunkulu. Lokho okudingeka ukuthi kwenziwe umuntu kumele kufezwe umuntu, ngisho noma kungaba ukunikela ngempilo yakhe, noma ukuzihambisa kuSathane ukuze abe wufakazi - lokhu kumele kufezwe umuntu. UNkulunkulu uqobo uqedela wonke umsebenzi okumele awenze, futhi lokho okumele kwenziwe umuntu uyakukhonjiswa, kuthi umsebenzi osele usalele umuntu. UNkulunkulu akawenzi umsebenzi wokwengeza. Wenza umsebenzi Wakhe kuphela, futhi ukhombisa umuntu indlela kuphela, futhi wenza umsebenzi wokuvula indlela, akawenzi umsebenzi wokuphendla indlela; lokhu kumele kuqondwe umuntu. Ukwenza iqiniso kusho ukwenza amazwi kaNkulunkulu, futhi lokhu kuwumsebenzi womuntu, futhi yikho okumele kwenziwe umuntu, futhi akuhlangene nhlobo noNkulunkulu. Uma umuntu ephoqa ukuthi uNkulunkulu ahlupheke futhi acwenge iqiniso, ngendlela efana neyomuntu, umuntu usuka enza ukungalaleli. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ukwenza inkonzo Yakhe, futhi umsebenzi womuntu ukuhlonipha ukuhola kukaNkulunkulu, ngaphandle kokuphikisa. Lokho okumele umuntu afinyelele kukho kumele kwenzeke, ngisho noma uNkulunkulu esebenza noma ephila ngayiphi indlela. NguNkulunkulu uqobo kuphela ongadinga okuthile kumuntu, okusho ukuthi, uNkulunkulu uqobo okufanele afune okuthile kumuntu. Umuntu kumele angabi nokunye angakwenza, kumele angenzi lutho olunye ngaphandle kokuthoba nokwenza ngokuphelele; yilo mqondo umuntu okumele abe nawo. Uma umsebenzi okumele wenziwe uNkulunkulu uqobo usuphelele, kudingeka umuntu adlule kuwo, isinyathelo ngesinyathelo. Uma, ekugcineni, kuthi sekuqedwe wonke umsebenzi wokuphatha kaNkulunkulu, umuntu engakakakwenzi lokho okudingwa uNkulunkulu, kuyofuneka ukuthi umuntu ajeziswe.

Uma umuntu elandela iqiniso lokuthi "uJehova nguNkulunkulu" futhi "uJesu nguKristu," okungamaqiniso asebenza kuphela enkathini eyodwa, umuntu-ke akasoze ahambisana nomsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele, futhi uyohlala engakwazi ukuzuza umsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele. Noma ngabe uNkulunkulu usebenza kanjani, umuntu ulandela ngaphandle kokungabaza, futhi ulandela eduze. Ngale ndlela, umuntu ubengasuswa kanjani uMoya ONgcwele? Noma ngabe wenzani uNkulunkulu, inqobo uma umuntu enesiqiniseko sokuthi umsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele, futhi ehambisana nomsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele ngaphandle kokunqikaza, futhi ezama ukuhlangabezana nezidingo zikaNkulunkulu, pho angajeziswa kanjani? Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu awukaze ume, izinyathelo zakhe azikaze zime, futhi ngaphambi kokuqeda umsebenzi Wakhe wokuphatha, ubelokhu ematasa, futhi akami. Kodwa umuntu wehlukile: Njengoba ethole ingxenyana yomsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele, uwuphatha sengathi awusoze waguquka; esethole ulwazi oluncane, akaqhubekeli phambili ukuze alandele ezinyathelweni zomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu omusha; esebone ingxenyana yomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, ubheka uNkulunkulu ngokushesha njengesithombe esibazwe ngokhuni, futhi ukholwa ukuthi uNkulunkulu uyohlala eyilesi simo asibona phambi kwakhe, ukuthi sasinje kudala futhi siyoba njalo nangesikhathi esizayo; esethole ulwazi olungatheni, umuntu uziqhenya kangangoba uyazikhohlwa futhi aqale ukumemezela ngesimo nobukhona bukaNkulunkulu okungekho nhlobo; futhi eseqinisekile ngesigaba esisodwa somsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele, noma ngabe wuhlobo luni lomuntu olumemezela umsebenzi omusha kaNkulunkulu, umuntu akawamukeli. Laba ngabantu abangeke bakwazi ukwamukela umsebenzi omusha kaMoya oNgcwele; futhi balukhuni; futhi abakwazi ukwamukela izinto ezintsha. Abantu balolo hlobo bakholwa kuNkulunkulu kodwa abamamukeli uNkulunkulu. Umuntu ukholwa ukuthi ama-Israyeli ayenephutha "ngokukholwa kuJehova bese engakholwa kuJesu," kodwa abantu abaningi babamba iqhaza kulokhu "ukukholwa kuJehova bachithe uJesu" futhi "balangazela ukubuya kukaMesiya, kodwa baphikisa uMesiya obizwa ngokuthi uJesu." Akumangazi-ke ukuthi abantu basaphila ngaphansi kukaSathane emuva kokwamukela isigaba esisodwa somsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele, futhi abakazitholi izibusiso zikaNkulunkulu. Lokhu akudalwa ukuhlubuka komuntu? AmaKristu emhlabeni jikelele angahambisananga nomsebenzi omusha wanamuhla abambelele enkolweni yokuthi asenhlanhleni, ukuthi uNkulunkulu uzofeza izifiso zabo ngazinye. Nokho abakwazi ukusho baqiniseke ukuthi kungani uNkulunkulu ezobayisa ezulwini lesithathu, futhi abanasiqiniseko ngokuthi uJesu uzobalanda egibele ifu elimhlophe, futhi bengesho nakancane ngokuqiniseka ukuthi uJesu uzofika ngempela na egibele phezu kwefu elimhlophe ngalolo suku abalucabangayo. Bonke balangazele, futhi badidekile; nabo uqobo abazi nokuthi ngabe uNkulunkulu uzothatha omunye nomunye wabo, ingcosane yabantu abehlukene, bakuwo wonke amahlelo. Umsebenzi owenziwa uNkulunkulu manje, inkathi yamanje, intando kaNkulunkulu - abaqondi kutho kulokhu, futhi akukho okunye abangakwenza ngaphandle kokubala izinsuku ngeminwe yabo. Yilabo kuphela abalandela ezinyathelweni zeMvana kuze kube sekugcineni abayokwazi ukuthola izibusiso zokugcina, kanti labo bantu “abahlakaniphile,” abangakwazi ukulandela kuze kube sekugcineni kepha bekholwa ukuthi bakuzuze konke, ngeke bakwazi ukubona ukuvela kukaNkulunkulu. Bonke bakholwa ukuthi bangabantu abakhaliphe kakhulu emhlabeni, futhi bayakunqamula ukuqhubeka kokuthuthukisa umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ngaphandle kwesizathu, futhi kubukeka sengathi bakholwa ngokugcwele ukuthi uNkulunkulu uzobayisa ezulwini, lapho "abathembeke kuNkulunkulu kakhulu, abalandela uNkulunkulu, abalandela amazwi kaNkulunkulu." Noma "bethembeke ngokweqile" amazwini akhulunywe uNkulunkulu, amazwi abo nezenzo kusabonakala kunyanyisa kakhulu ngoba kuphikisana nomsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele, futhi benza inkohliso nobubi. Labo abangalandeli kuze kube sekugcineni, abasilelayo emsebenzini kaMoya oNgcwele, futhi ababambelela emsebenzini omdala abahlulekanga nje ukugcwalisa ukwethembeka kuNkulunkulu kuphela, kodwa, baphenduke labo abaphikisana noNkulunkulu, baba yilabo abachitha isikhathi esisha, futhi abazojeziswa. Ngabe bakhona abadabukisa ngaphezu kwabo? Abaningi baze bakholwe ukuthi labo abachitha umthetho omdala futhi bamukele umsebenzi omusha abananembeza. Laba bantu, abakhuluma ngonembeza kuphela, futhi bengawazi umsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele, bazogcina sebenqanyulelwe amathuba okuthuthuka ngobabo onembeza. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu awulandeli imfundiso, futhi yize kungumsebenzi Wakhe uqobo, uNkulunkulu akabambeleli kuwo. Lokho okumele kuphikwe kuyaphikwa, lokho okumele kunqunywe kuyanqunywa. Kepha umuntu uzenza isitha sikaNkulunkulu ngokubambelela engxenyeni encane yomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu wokuphatha. Akukhona ukuxaka komuntu lokhu? Akukhona ukungazi komuntu lokhu? Uma abantu belokhu benovalo futhi beqaphele kakhulu ngenxa yokwesaba ukungazitholi izibusiso zikaNkulunkulu, yilapho behluleka khona ukuthola izibusiso ezinkulu, kanye nokuthola isibusiso sokugcina. Labo bantu abalandela umthetho njengezigqila bonke bakhombisa ukwethembeka okukhulu emthethweni, futhi abaveza lokho kwethembeka emthethweni, yibo abangabahlubuki abaphikisana noNkulunkulu. Ngoba manje ekuyiNkathi Yombuso hhayi iNkathi yoMthetho, futhi umsebenzi wanamuhla ungeqhathaniswe nomsebenzi wakudala, futhi umsebenzi wakudala ungeqhathaniswe nomsebenzi wanamuhla. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu sewuguqukile, futhi ukwenza komuntu nakho sekuguqukile; akusewona owokubambelela emthethweni noma ukuthwala isiphambano. Ngakho, ukwethembeka kwabantu emthethweni nasesiphambanweni akuzukuthola ukuvunywa uNkulunkulu.
Umuntu uzopheleliswa ngeNkathi Yombuso. Emuva komsebenzi wokunqoba, umuntu uyobhekana nokucwengwa kanye nokuhlupheka. Labo abanganqoba nabangaba ofakazi ngesikhathi sokuhlupheka yibo abagcina sebepheleliswa; baba ngabanqobi. Ngesikhathi senhlupheko, abantu kudingeka ukuthi bamukele ukucwengwa, futhi lokhu kucwengwa kungumsebenzi wokugcina kaNkulunkulu. Kungokokugcina lapho umuntu eyocwengwa ngaphambi kokuphethwa komsebenzi wokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu, futhi bonke labo abalandela uNkulunkulu kumele bamukele ukuvivinywa kokugcina, kumele bamukele ukucwengwa kokugcina. Labo abehlelwe ukuhlupheka abanawo umsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele kanye nokuholwa uNkulunkulu, kodwa labo abanqotshwe ngempela futhi abafuna uNkulunkulu ngokweqiniso bayogcina bemile bengapheli amandla; yibo abanobuntu, nabathanda uNkulunkulu ngokweqiniso. Noma angenzani uNkulunkulu, labo abanqobayo ngeke bephucwe imibono, futhi bazomela iqiniso balenze ngaphandle kokwahluleka ebufakazini babo. Bayilabo abazophuma ngokuphelele enhluphekweni enkulu. Yize labo abadoba emanzini anyakaziswayo besengathola abangakusebenzele namuhla, akekho umuntu ongakwazi ukubalekela ukuhlupheka kokugcina, futhi akekho ongabalekela ukuvivinywa kokugcina. Kulabo abanqobayo, lokho kuhlupheka kuwukucwengwa okukhulu; kodwa kulabo abadoba emanzini anyakaziswayo, kuwumsebenzi wokunqunywa ophelele. Noma bangalingwa kanjani, ukukhanya kwalabo abanoNkulunkulu ezinhliziyweni zabo kuhlala kungaguqukile; kodwa labo abangenaye uNkulunkulu enhliziyweni yabo, uma umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ungenalusizo enyameni yabo, baguqula indlela ababheka uNkulunkulu ngayo, futhi baze basuke kuNkulunkulu. Banjalo abangeke bame kuze kube sekupheleni, abafuna izibusiso zikaNkulunkulu kuphela futhi abangalangazeleli ukuzikhandlela uNkulunkulu futhi nokuzinikela Kuye. Laba bantu ababi bayoxoshwa bonke uma umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu sewufika ekugcineni, futhi abafanelwe ukudatshukelwa. Labo abangenabo ubuntu bayehluleka ukuthanda uNkulunkulu ngokweqiniso. Uma isimo siphephile futhi sivikelekile, noma uma bengathola inzuzo, bamlalela ngokuphelele uNkulunkulu, kodwa lapho lokho abakulangazelelayo kuba sengcupheni noma kugcina sekuchithiwe, bajika ngas0 leso sikhathi. Ngisho esikhathini sobusuku obubodwa, bangase baphenduke besuka ekubeni abantu abamoyizelayo, "abenenhliziyo enhle" babe ngabantu ababi nababulali abesabekayo, baphendukele okubasizile izolo kube yisitha sabo esikhulu, ngaphandle kwesizathu. Uma lawo madimoni engakhishwa, amadimoni angabulala ngokuphazima kweso, ngeke abe yimbangela yokuqhubeka kwezinhlupheko? Umsebenzi wokusindisa umuntu awufezwa kulandela ukuqedwa komsebenzi wokunqoba. Yize umsebenzi usufike ekugcineni, umsebenzi wokuhlanza umuntu awukafiki lapho; lolo hlobo lomsebenzi luyoqedelwa uma esehlanzwe ngokugcwele, uma labo abazithoba ngokuphelele kuNkulunkulu sebephelelisiwe, futhi uma labo abazenzisayo abangenaye uNkulunkulu ezinhliziyweni zabo sebesusiwe. Labo abangamanelisi uNkulunkulu esigabeni sokugcina somsebenzi Wakhe bayokhishwa ngokugcwele, futhi labo abakhishwayo bangabakadeveli. Njengoba behluleka ukwanelisa uNkulunkulu, bayahlubuka kuNkulunkulu, futhi yize laba bantu belandela uNkulunkulu namuhla, lokhu akufakazeli ukuthi bayilabo abayogcina bemile. Emazwini athi "labo abalandela uNkulunkulu kuze kube sekugcineni bayothola insindiso," incazelo "yokulandela" iwukuma uqine phakathi kwezinhlupheko. Namuhla, abantu abaningi bakholwa ukuthi ukulandela uNkulunkulu kulula, kodwa lapho umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu sewuzophela, uzoyazi incazelo yangempela "yokulandela." Ngoba nje usakwazi ukulandela uNkulunkulu namuhla emuva kokunqotshwa, lokhu akufakazeli ukuthi ungomunye walabo abazopheliswa. Labo abangakwazi ukubekezelela izilingo, abangakwazi ukunqoba phakathi kwezinhlupho, ekugcineni, ngeke bakwazi ukuma, futhi ngeke bakwazi ukulandela uNkulunkulu kuze kube sekugcineni. Labo abalandela uNkulunkulu ngokweqiniso bakwazi ukubekezela lapho umsebenzi wabo uvivinywa, kanti labo abangamlandeli ngokweqiniso uNkulunkulu abakwazi ukumela ukuvivinywa uNkulunkulu. Bayoxoshwa kungekudala, kanti abanqobi bayohlala embusweni. Ukuthi ngabe umuntu ufuna uNkulunkulu ngokweqiniso kunqunywa ukuvivinywa komsebenzi wakhe, okuwukuthi, kwenzeka ngokuvivinywa uNkulunkulu, futhi akuhlangene nhlobo nezinqumo umuntu azithathela zona. UNkulunkulu akamchithi noma kanjani nje umuntu; konke akwenzayo kwenza umuntu akholwe ngokweqiniso. Akenzi lutho olungabonakali kumuntu, noma umsebenzi ongeke umenze umuntu akholwe. Ukuthi ukukholwa komuntu kuyiqiniso noma cha kufakazelwa ngamaqiniso, kungenqunywe umuntu. Ukuthi "ukolweni ungenziwe ukhula, futhi ukhula lungenziwe ukolweni" akungatshazwa. Bonke labo abamthanda ngokweqiniso uNkulunkulu bazohlala embusweni, futhi uNkulunkulu akazukuphatha muntu kabi uma emthanda ngempela uNkulunkulu. Ngokususela emisebenzini nobufakazi obahlukene, abanqobi abasembusweni bayosebenza njengabaphristi noma abalandeli, futhi labo abanqobayo ezinhluphekweni bayoba yisigungu sabaphristi embusweni. Isigungu sabaphristi siyokwakhiwa uma umsebenzi wevangeli usuphelile emhlabeni jikelele. Uma sekufika isikhathi, okumele kwenziwe umuntu kuyoba umsebenzi wakhe embusweni kaNkulunkulu, kanye nokuhlala kwakhe ndawonye noNkulunkulu embusweni. Esigungwini sabaphristi kuyoba nomphristi omkhulu kanye nabaphristi, futhi abasele bayoba amadodana kanye nabantu baNkulunkulu. Konke lokhu kuyonqunywa ngokobufakazi babo kuNkulunkulu ngezinkathi zenhlupheko; akuwona amagama anikezwa kalula nje. Uma isithunzi somuntu sesitholakele, umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uyophela, ngoba umuntu ngamunye uyobe esebekwe ngokohlobo lwakhe futhi ebuyiselwe esimweni sakhe sasekuqaleni, futhi lokhu kuwuphawu lokuqedwa komsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, lokhu kuwumphumela wokugcina womsebenzi kaNkulunkulu kanye nokwenza komuntu, futhi kuwukucaciswa kwesimo kwemibono yomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu kanye nokusebenzisana nomuntu. Ekugcineni, umuntu uyophumula embusweni kaNkulunkulu, futhi noNkulunkulu, uyokwenza njalo, uyobuyela endaweni Yakhe ukuze aphumule. Lokhu kuwumphumela wokugcina weminyaka eyizi-6000 yokusebenzisana phakathi kukaNkulunkulu nomuntu.
