3. Umuntu kufanele abone umehluko phakathi kukaKristu osenyameni kanye noKristu bamanga nabaphrofethi bamanga

　　

　　Izikhombo Zamavesi EBhayibheli:

　　“Ngoba kuzoba khona oKristu bamanga, nabaphrofethi bamanga, nabazoveza izibonakaliso ezinkulu nezimangaliso; ukuze, uma kungenzeka, bazodukisa ngisho nalabo abakhethiweyo” (Mathewu 24:23-24).

　　“Mina ngiyindlela, iqiniso nokuphila” (Johane 14:6 ).

　　Amazwi KaNkulunkulu Abalulekile:

　　Lowo onguNkulunkulu osenyameni uzoba nesiqu sikaNkulunkulu, lowo onguNkulunkulu osenyameni uzobonakala njengoNkulunkulu. Njengoba uNkulunkulu eba yinyama, uzoletha umsebenzi okumele awenze, njengoba uNkulunkulu eba yinyama, uzoveza lokhu ayikho, futhi uzokwazi ukuletha iqiniso kubantu, alethe ukuphila phezu kwabantu, akhombise abantu indlela. Inyama ayinaso isiqu sikaNkulunkulu ayiyena uNkulunkulu osenyameni; asingabazi kulokhu. Ukuphenya ukuthi ngabe uNkulunkulu wenyama osenyameni, abantu kumele bathole isimo asivezayo kanye namazwi awakhulumayo. Okungukuthi, ingabe nguNkulunkulu osenyameni noma cha, nokuthi ingabe yindlela yeqiniso noma cha, kumele kwahlulelwe ngesiqu Sakhe. Ngakho-ke, ekutholeni[a] ukuthi yinyama kaNkulunkulu osenyameni, okubalulekile ukuthi unake usiqu Sakhe (umsebenzi Wakhe, amazwi Akhe, isimo Sakhe, nokunye okuningi), kunokubheka okubonakala ngaphandle. Uma abantu bebona ingaphandle kuphela, bese bengabheki usiqu Sakhe, lokho kuveza ukungazi komuntu.

kwesithi Isandulelo sethi Izwi Livela Lisenyameni

　　UNkulunkulu waba inyama eyabizwa ngokuthi uKristu, futhi okuwuKristu okwazi ukunika abantu iqiniso elibizwa ngokuthi uNkulunkulu. Akukho okukhulu ngalokhu, ngoba uqukethe isiqu sikaNkulunkulu, futhi uqukethe isimo sikaNkulunkulu, kanye nobuhlakani emsebenzini Wakhe, umuntu angekuthole. Labo abazibiza ngoKristu, kepha bengakwazi ukwenza umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, bangabakhohlisi. UKristu akasikho nje ukubonakaliswa kukaNkulunkulu emhlabeni, kodwa inyama embethwe uNkulunkulu uphethe futhi uqedela umsebenzi Wakhe kubantu. Le nyama akusiyo leyo endawo yayo ingathathwa yinoma imuphi umuntu, kodwa yileyo engathwala umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ngendlela egculisayo emhlabeni, futhi ibonakalisa isimo sikaNkulunkulu, futhi inika abantu ukuphila. Esikhathini esingatheni, labo abangoKristu bamanga bayowa, ngoba yize bethi banguKristu, akukho abanakho okuwumgogodla kaKristu. Ngakho ngithi ubuqiniso ngoKristu ngeke buchazwe umuntu, kodwa kuphendulwa futhi kunqunywe uNkulunkulu Uqobo.

kwesithi “UKristu Wezinsuku Zokugcina Kuphela Onganika Umuntu Indlela Yokuphila Ingunaphakade” kwethi Izwi Livela Lisenyameni

　　UNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu kuthiwa nguKristu, kanti uKristu uyinyama embethwe uMoya kaNkulunkulu. Le nyama ayifani nomuntu oyinyama. Lo mehluko wenziwa ukuthi uKristu akayena owenyama negazi kodwa usesimweni somuntu kaMoya. Unesimo sobuntu obujwayelekile nobunkulunkulu obuphelele. Akekho umuntu onobunkulunkulu Bakhe. Ubuntu Bakhe obujwayelekile busekela yonke imisebenzi Yakhe ejwayelekile esenyameni, kanti ubunkulunkulu bona benza umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe. Noma ngabe yisimo sobuntu noma sobunkulunkulu, kokubili kuthobela intando kaBaba Osezulwini. Ingqikithi kaKristu uMoya, okungukuthi, ubunkulunkulu. Ngalokho-ke, ingqikithi Yakhe ngekaNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe; le ngqikithi angeke iwuphazamise umsebenzi Wakhe, futhi akukho angakwenza okubulala umsebenzi Wakhe, futhi angeke akhulume amazwi aphambana nentando Yakhe.

　　…………

　　Yize noma uKristu emele uNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe enyameni futhi ewenza Yena umsebenzi okumele wenziwe uNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe, akakuphiki ukuthi uNkulunkulu ukhona ezulwini, futhi akajahi ukumemezela imisebenzi Yakhe. Kunalokho, uhlala ecashile enyameni Yakhe. Ngaphandle kukaKristu, labo abazibiza ngokungelona iqiniso ngoKristu abanakho lokho anakho Yena. Uma eqhathaniswa nesimo soKristu bamanga abazidlayo nabaziphakamisa, kuyacaca ukuthi unhloboni yenyama uKristu. Ukukhula kwezinga lamanga abayiwo, kwenza laba oKristu bamanga baziveze, kanti futhi kulapho beba namandla okwenza izimpawu nezimangaliso ukuze bakhohlise abantu. OKristu bamanga abanaso isimo sikaNkulunkulu; uKristu akangcoliswa nawokuncane nje okungokoKristu bamanga. UNkulunkulu uba yinyama kuphela ukuze aphelelise umsebenzi wenyama, hhayi ngoba efuna ukuthi abantu bambone. Kunalokho, wenza umsebenzi Wakhe ukuthi kube yiwo oqinisekisa ubuyena, avumele lokhu akuvezayo ukuthi kufakazele ingqikithi Yakhe. Ingqikithi yakhe inesisekelo; ubuyena abubanjiwe yisandla Sakhe; kodwa bubonakaliswa umsebenzi Wakhe nengqikithi Yakhe. …

　　Umsebenzi nokuvezwa uKristu kuveza ingqikithi Bakhe. Uyakwazi ukuqeda ngenhliziyo eneqiniso konke lokhu athenjwe ngakho. Uyakwazi ukudumisa uNkulunkulu osezulwini ngenhliziyo eneqiniso, futhi ngenhliziyo eneqiniso afune intando kaNkulunkulu uBaba. Konke lokhu kuvezwa ingqikithi Yakhe. Kanjalo nokwembuleka kwendalo kuvezwa ingqikithi Yakhe; isizathu sokuthi ukwembuleka Kwakhe kwendalo kubizwe kanjena ukuthi lokhu akuvezayo akukhona okokufanekisa, noma umphumela wokufundiswa umuntu, noma umphumela weminyaka eminingi elungiswa ngumuntu. Akazange akufunde noma azihlobise ngakho; kunalokho, kuyinto engaphathi Kuye.

kwesithi “Ingqikithi KaKristu Ukuthobela Intando KaBaba Osezulwini” kwethi Izwi Livela Lisenyameni

　　Uma ezinsukwini zokugcina “UNkulunkulu” ofana nokubonakala kukaJesu, lowo owaphulukisa abagulayo, waxosha amadimoni futhi owabethelwa ngenxa yomuntu, “lowo Nkulunkulu,” nakuba efana nalowo ochazwa eBhayibhelini futhi kulula kumuntu ukuba amamukele, ubengeke, empeleni abe inyama egqokwe nguMoya kaNkulunkulu, kodwa egqokwe ngumoya omubi. Ngoba kuyisimiso somsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ukungalokothi aphinde lokho asekufezile.

kwesithi “Ingqikithi Yenyama Ehlalwe UNkulunkulu” kwethi Izwi Livela Lisenyameni

　　Uma, njengamanje, kungavela umuntu okwazi ukwenza izimpawu nezimangaliso, futhi ekwazi ukukhipha amadimoni, futhi asindise abagulayo, futhi enze izimpawu eziningi, futhi uma lo muntu ethi ungukubuya kukaJesu, ngabe lokhu kuyinkohliso yemimoya emibi, kanye nokulingisa kwakhe uJesu. Khumbula lokhu! UNkulunkulu akawuphindi umsebenzi owodwa. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ngeke uhambisane nemicabango yabantu; njengesibonelo, iTestamente Elidala labikezela ngokuza kukaMesiya, kodwa kwenzeka ukuthi uJesu afike, ngakho kungaba yiphutha ukuthi omunye uMesiya afike futhi. UJesu usefikile kanye, futhi kungaba yiphutha uma uJesu ubengeza futhi manje. Kunegama elilodwa enkathini ngayinye, futhi igama ngalinye lifuza inkathi. Emicabangweni yomuntu, uNkulunkulu kufanele njalo enze izimpawu nezimangaliso, kufanele njalo asindise abagulayo futhi akhiphe amadimoni, futhi kufanele njalo abenjengoJesu, kepha manje uNkulunkulu akanjalo neze. Uma, ngezinsuku zokugcina, uNkulunkulu wayesenza izimpawu nezimangaliso, futhi esakhipha amadimoni futhi asindise abagulayo—ukuba ubenza njengoJesu uqobo—uNkulunkulu ubengabe uphinda umsebenzi ofanayo, futhi umsebenzi kaJesu ubungeke ube nokubaluleka nosizo. Ngakho uNkulunkulu wenza isigaba esisodwa somsebenzi kuzo zonke izinkathi. Uma isigaba somsebenzi wakhe sesiphelile, silingiswa yimimoya emibi ngokushesha emuva kwalokho, futhi emuva kokuthi uSathane eqalise ukulandela uNkulunkulu eduzane, uNkulunkulu uguqukela kwenye indlela; uma uNkulunkulu eseqedile isigaba somsebenzi wakhe, ulingiswa imimoya emibi. Kufanele ucacelwe yilezi zinto.

kwesithi “Ukwazi Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu Namhlanje” kwethi Izwi Livela Lisenyameni

　　Kunabanye abathile abanemimoya emibi futhi abalokhu bememeza bethi, “NginguNkulunkulu!” Nokho ekugcineni, abakwazi ukuhlala bemile, ngoba basebenza egameni longafanele. Bamele uSathane futhi uMoya oNgcwele awubanaki. Nokho kungakhathaleki ukuthi uziphakamisa kangakanani noma ukuthi umemeza kakhulu kangakanani, usewumuntu owadalwa futhi uyilowo ongokaSathane. Angimemezi, nginguNkulunkulu, ngiyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu ethandekayo! Kodwa umsebenzi engiwenzayo okaNkulunkulu. Ingabe kudingeka ngimemeze? Asikho isidingo sokuphakanyiswa. UNkulunkulu uzenzela Yena mathupha umsebenzi futhi akadingi ukuba umuntu amnike isikhundla noma isiqu sokumhlonipha, futhi umsebenzi Wakhe wanele ukuba umele isiqu kanye nesikhundla Sakhe. Ngaphambi kokubhabhathizwa Kwakhe, ngabe uJesu wayengeyena uNkulunkulu uqobo? Ingabe wayengeyena uNkulunkulu osenyameni? Ngempela ngeke kuthiwe waba yindodana eyodwa kaNkulunkulu kuphela ngemva kokuba esefakazelwe? Ingabe yayingekho indoda okwakuthiwa nguJesu esikhathini eside ngaphambi kokuba aqale umsebenzi Wakhe? Awukwazi ukuveza izindlela ezintsha noma umele uMoya. Awukwazi ukuveza umsebenzi kaMoya noma amazwi awakhulumayo. Awukwazi ukwenza umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uqobo noma okaMoya. Awukwazi ukuveza ukuhlakanipha, ukumangalisa nokungaqondakali kukaNkulunkulu, noma sonke isimo uNkulunkulu asola ngaso abantu. Ngakho ukulokhu uthi unguNkulunkulu akusho lutho; unegama kuphela isiqu awunaso. UNkulunkulu uqobo ufikile, kodwa akekho noyedwa ombonayo, nokho uyaqhubeka nomsebenzi Wakhe futhi uwenza emelwe uMoya. Noma umbiza ngomuntu noma ngoNkulunkulu, iNkosi noma uKristu noma ngoDadewethu, konke kulungile. Kodwa umsebenzi awenzayo ungowoMoya futhi umele umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uqobo. Akanandaba nokuthi abantu bambiza ngaliphi igama. Igama lingawuchaza yini umsebenzi Wakhe? Ngisho noma kuthiwa umbiza ngokuthini, ngokweso likaNkulunkululu, uyinyama yoMoya kaNkulunkulu osenyameni onoMoya Wakhe; umele uMoya futhi ugunyazwe Nguye. Awukwazi ukuvulela inkathi entsha indlela, futhi ngeke ukwazi ukuqeda nokungenisa inkathi entsha noma wenze umsebenzi omusha. Ngakho awukwazi ukubizwa ngoNkulunkulu!

　　Uma umuntu ezibiza ngoNkulunkulu ebe engakwazi ukubonakalisa ubuNkulunkulu bakhe, enza umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu Uqobo, akunakungatshazwa ukuthi akasiye uNkulunkulu, ngoba akanawo umongo kaNkulunkulu, futhi lokho uNkulunkulu angakwazi ukukufeza akukho ngaphakathi kuye.

　　Phakathi kwalabo boKristu bamanga, abaprofethi bamanga nabakhohlisi, abekho yini labo ababizwa ngoNkulunkulu? Kungani bengeyena uNkulunkulu? Ngenxa yokuthi abakwazi ukwenza umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu? Ngokwemvelo bangabantu, abakhohlisi babantu, hhayi uNkulunkulu, ngakho abanakho ukubonakala kukaNkulunkulu.
