Umbhalo-ngqangi ophefumlelweyo ulumkisa ngokuchasene nokuphazamisa isiseko kunye neentsika ezixhasayo zomyalezo we-Advent. Ngu-Ellen White

Khange ndikwazi nobuthongo oko ngentsimbi yokuqala ekuseni. INKOSI yayindinike umyalezo kuMzalwana uJohn Bell, ngoko ndawubhala phantsi. Iimbono zakhe ezithile zingumxube wenyaniso kunye neempazamo. Ukuba wayephile kumava uThixo athe wabakhokela abantu bakhe kuwo kule minyaka ingamashumi amane idlulileyo, ngewayekwazi ukuzitolika ngcono iZibhalo.

Iimpawu ezinkulu zenyaniso zisinika ukuziqhelanisa nembali yesiprofetho. Kubalulekile ukuwagcina ngononophelo. Kungenjalo ziya kubhukuqwa zize zithatyathelw’ indawo ziithiyori ezibangela ukubhideka ngakumbi kunokuqonda kokwenyani. Ndicatshulwe ukuxhasa iingcamango zobuxoki eziye zavezwa amaxesha ngamaxesha. Abaxhasi bezi ngcamango nabo bacaphula iindinyana zeBhayibhile, kodwa bazitolika ngendlela ephosakeleyo. Sekunjalo, abaninzi babekholelwa ukuba ezi ngcamango zifanele zishunyayelwe ebantwini. Noko ke, iziprofeto zikaDaniyeli nekaYohane zifuna ufundisiso olunzulu.

Kusekho abantu abaphilayo namhlanje (ngowe-1896) athe uThixo wabanika ulwazi olukhulu ngokufundisisa iziprofeto zikaDaniyeli noYohane. Kungenxa yokuba babona indlela ezinye iziprofeto ezazizaliseka ngayo emva kwesinye. Bavakalisa isigidimi esisexesheni kuluntu. Inyaniso yayiqaqambile njengelanga lasemini emaqanda. Iziganeko zembali zaziyinzaliseko engqalileyo yesiprofeto. Kwaqondwa ukuba isiprofeto luthotho lweziganeko zokomfuziselo olunabela ekupheleni kwembali yehlabathi. Iziganeko zokugqibela zinento yokwenza nomsebenzi wendoda yesono. Ibandla liyalelwe ukuba livakalise isigidimi esikhethekileyo ehlabathini: isigidimi sengelosi yesithathu. Nabani na othe wanamava ekubhengezweni kwesigidimi sengelosi yokuqala, eyesibini nesesithathu wade wathabatha inxaxheba kuso akaphambuki ngokulula njengabantu abangenabutyebi bamava abantu bakaThixo.

Amalungiselelo okuBuya kweSibini

Abantu bakaThixo bathunywe ukuba bakhuthaze ihlabathi ukuba lilungiselele ukubuya kweNkosi yethu noMsindisi uYesu Kristu. Uya kuza enamandla nobuqaqawuli obukhulu, xa uxolo nonqabiseko luya kuvakaliswa kuzo zonke iindawo zehlabathi lobuKristu, lize ibandla elileleyo nehlabathi libuze ngokungcikivayo, lisithi, Liphi na idinga lokubuya kwakhe? Zonke izinto zimi njengoko zazinjalo kwasekuqalekeni!” (2 Petros 3,4:XNUMX).

UYesu wanyuselwa ezulwini lilifu elenziwe ziingelosi eziphilayo. Izithunywa zathi kwabaseGalili, Yini na ukuba nime apha nikhangele ezulwini? Lo Yesu unyusiweyo kuni wasiwa ezulwini, uya kubuya eze kwangolo hlobo nimbone enyukela ezulwini!” ( IZenzo 1,11:XNUMX ) Esi yayisisiganeko esibalulekileyo esibalulekileyo sokucamngca nokuncokola. Iingelosi zavakalisa ukuba uya kubuya ngendlela efanayo naleyo anyuke ngayo waya ezulwini.

Ukubuya kweNkosi noMsindisi wethu uYesu Kristu kufuneka kuhlale kutsha ezingqondweni zabantu. Yenza kucace kubo bonke: UYesu uyabuya! Kwaloo Yesu mnye wenyuka waya ezulwini ephelekwa yimikhosi yasezulwini uyeza kwakhona. Kwa lo Yesu unguMthetheleli nomhlobo wethu kwinkundla yasezulwini, ethethelela wonke umntu omamkelayo njengoMsindisi, lo Yesu uyeza kwakhona ukuba anconywe kuwo onke amakholwa.

Ukutolikwa kweziprofeto zekamva

Abanye abantu baye bacinga ngoxa babefunda iBhayibhile ukuba baye bafumanisa ukukhanya okukhulu, iingcamango ezintsha. Kodwa zazingalunganga. IZibhalo ziyinyaniso ngokupheleleyo, kodwa ukusetyenziswa kakubi kweZibhalo kuye kwakhokelela abantu kwizigqibo eziphosakeleyo. Sikwimfazwe eya isiba qatha neqinisekileyo njengoko sisondela kwidabi lokugqibela. Utshaba lwethu alulali. Uhlala esebenza kwiintliziyo zabantu abangakhange babone ngokobuqu iminyaka engamashumi amahlanu edluleyo yabantu bakaThixo. Abanye basebenzisa inyaniso yangoku kwikamva. Okanye bazibekel’ amangomso iziprofeto ekudala zizalisekile. Kodwa ezi ngcamango zilujongela phantsi ukholo lwabathile.

Emva kokukhanya andinike kona uYehova ngokulunga kwakhe, nawe usesichengeni sokwenza kwaloo nto: ukushumayela iinyaniso ezisele zinendawo yazo, nomsebenzi wazo okhethekileyo kwixesha lazo kwimbali yokholo yabantu bakaThixo. Uyazamkela ezi zibakala zembali yeBhayibhile kodwa uzisebenzise kwixesha elizayo. Basafeza indima yabo kwindawo yabo kuthotho lweziganeko ezithe zasenza saba ngabantu esiphila ngabo namhlanje. Ngaloo ndlela zimele zivakaliswe kubo bonke abasebumnyameni belahleko.

Isigidimi sengelosi yesithathu saqalisa kungekudala emva kowe-1844

Abasebenzi abathembekileyo bakaYesu Kristu bafanele basebenze kunye nabazalwana abanamava ukususela kwixesha lokuvela kwesigidimi sengelosi yesithathu. Baye balandela ukukhanya nenyaniso inyathelo ngenyathelo kuhambo lwabo, betyhubela uvavanyo emva kolunye, bewuthwala umnqamlezo obekwe phambi kweenyawo zabo, yaye beqhubeka befuna “ukumazi uYehova, okubonakala kuqinisekileyo ukuba ukufika kwakhe kunjengokukhanya kwehlabathi. ukukhanya kwentsasa.”— Hoseya 6,3:XNUMX .

Wena nabanye abazalwana bethu nifanele niyamkele inyaniso njengoko uThixo wayinika abafundi bakhe besiprofeto xa, ngamava abo okwenene nawaphilayo, baqonda, bahlolisisa, baqinisekisa baza bavavanya ingongoma nganye de inyaniso yaba yinto yokwenene kubo. Ngamazwi nangokubhala bathumela inyaniso njengemitha yokukhanya eqaqambileyo nefudumeleyo kuzo zonke iindawo zehlabathi. Nabo ke imfundiso yomgwebo eziziswa zizithunywa zikaNdikhoyo ikwayiyo imfundiso kubo bonke abavakalisa esi sigidimi.

Imbopheleleko abantu bakaThixo, abakufuphi nabakude, ngoku, kukuvakaliswa kwesigidimi sengelosi yesithathu. Kwabo bafuna ukusiqonda esi sigidimi, uYehova akasayi kubashukumisela ukuba balisebenzise iLizwi ngendlela yokuba lisingele phantsi isiseko lize lishenxise iintsika zokholo ezenze amaSeventh-day Adventist ukuba abe yile nto ayiyo namhlanje.

Iimfundiso zakhula ngokulandelelanayo njengoko sasihla kwityathanga lesiprofeto elikwiLizwi likaThixo. Nanamhlanje ziyinyaniso, zingcwele, ziyinyaniso engunaphakade! Nabani na owafumana yonke into inyathelo ngenyathelo waza waluqonda udederhu lwenyaniso ekwisiprofeto wayekwalungele ukwamkela aze aphumeze yonke imitha yokukhanya engakumbi. Wathandaza, wazila ukutya, waphanda, wemba inyaniso njengobutyebi obufihliweyo, kwaye uMoya oyiNgcwele, siyamazi, wasifundisa kwaye wasikhokela. Kuye kwabekwa iithiyori ezininzi ezibonakala ziyinyaniso. Noko ke, zazizaliswe ziindinyana zeBhayibhile ezitolikwe ngendlela ephosakeleyo nezingasetyenziswa kakuhle kangangokuba zakhokelela kwiimpazamo eziyingozi. Sazi kakuhle ukuba ingongoma nganye yenyaniso yasekwa njani kwaye uMoya oyiNgcwele kaThixo wayitywina njani phezu kwayo. Ngalo lonke ixesha sasiva amazwi athi: “Nantsi inyaniso,” “ndinenyaniso, ndilandeleni!” Kodwa salunyukiswa: “Musani ukubasukela ngoku! andibathumanga, ukanti babaleka.” ( Luka 21,8:23,21; Yeremiya XNUMX:XNUMX )

Ukhokelo lukaYehova lwalucacile yaye watyhila ngokungummangaliso into eyiyo inyaniso. UYEHOVA uThixo wezulu wabaqinisekisa ngengongoma ethile.

Inyaniso ayitshintshi

Oko kwakuyinyaniso ngoko kuseyinyaniso nanamhlanje. Kodwa useva amazwi athi, “Le yinyaniso. ndinokukhanya okutsha.” Oku kuqonda kutsha kumaxesha esiprofeto kuphawulwa kukusetyenziswa kakubi kweLizwi nokushiya abantu bakaThixo bedada ngaphandle iankile. Xa umfundi weBhayibhile esamkela iinyaniso uThixo alikhokelele kuzo ibandla lakhe; ukuba uyazicwangcisa aze aziphile kubomi obubonakalayo, ngoko uba ngumjelo ophilayo wokukhanya. Kodwa nabani na ovelisa iithiyori ezintsha kwizifundo zakhe ezidibanisa inyaniso kunye neempazamo kwaye ezisa iingcamango zakhe ngaphambili ubonisa ukuba akazange akhanyise ikhandlela lakhe kwixesha lobuthixo, kungoko laphuma ebumnyameni.

Ngelishwa, kwafuneka ukuba uThixo andibonise ukuba ukwindlela enye. Into ebonakala kuwe iluthotho lwenyaniso sisiprofeto esigqwethiweyo ngokuyinxenye kwaye sichasene noko uThixo akutyhilileyo kuyinyaniso. Thina njengabantu sinoxanduva ngesigidimi sengelosi yesithathu. Yivangeli yoxolo, ubulungisa nenyaniso. Ngumsebenzi wethu ukuzibhengeza. Ngaba sinxibe sonke isikrweqe? Ifuneka ngendlela engazange ibonwe ngaphambili.

Ukucwangciswa kwemiyalezo yeengelosi

Ukuvakaliswa kwesigidimi sengelosi yokuqala, eyesibini nesesithathu kwacwangciswa ngokwelizwi lesiprofeto. Akukho nesiteki okanye ibhawuli inokushukunyiswa. Asinalo ilungelo lokutshintsha izinxulumanisi zale miyalezo kunokuba sinelungelo lokususa iTestamente eNdala ngeTestamente eNtsha. ITestamente eNdala yiVangeli ngokwemifuziselo kunye nemiqondiso, iTestamente eNtsha ingundoqo. Enye iyimfuneko njengenye. ITestamente eNdala ikwasizisela iimfundiso eziphuma emlonyeni kaMesiya. Ezi mfundiso azikhange ziphulukane namandla azo nangayiphi na indlela.

Isigidimi sokuqala nesesibini savakaliswa ngowe-1843 nangowe-1844. Namhlanje lixesha lesithathu. Zontathu ezi zigidimi ziyabhengezwa ukuza kuthi ga ngoku. Uphinda-phindo lwabo luyimfuneko njengakuqala. Kuba abaninzi bafuna inyaniso. Zivakalise ngelizwi nangokubhala, ucacisa ukulandelelana kweziprofeto ezisikhokelela kwisigidimi sengelosi yesithathu. Ngaphandle kweyokuqala neyesibini ayinakubakho eyesithathu. Injongo yethu kukuzisa le miyalezo kwihlabathi kwiimpapasho kunye neentetho kunye nokubonisa okwenzekileyo ukuza kuthi ga ngoku kunye nokuya kwenzeka kumgca wexesha lembali yesiprofetho.

Incwadi etywiniweyo yayingeyoncwadi yeSityhilelo, kodwa yayiyinxalenye yesiprofeto sikaDaniyeli esibhekisela kumaxesha okugqibela. ISibhalo sithi: “Wena ke, Daniyeli, wavale la mazwi, uyitywine incwadi kude kube lixesha lesiphelo. Abaninzi baya kubhadula bephengulula, yaye ulwazi luya kwanda.” ( Daniyeli 12,4:10,6 ) Xa le ncwadi yavulwayo, kwaphuma esi sibhengezo: “Akuyi kuba sabakho xesha.” ( ISityhilelo XNUMX:XNUMX ) Le ncwadi ikho namhlanje. UDaniyeli uyatyhila, kwaye isityhilelo sikaYesu kuYohane sijoliswe ukufikelela wonke umntu emhlabeni. Ngokwanda kolwazi abantu baya kulungiselelwa ukunyamezela ngemihla yokugqibela.

“Ndabona esinye isithunywa sezulu, siphaphazela esazulwini samazulu, sineendaba ezilungileyo ezingunaphakade, ukuba sizishumayele kwabo bemiyo phezu komhlaba, kuzo zonke iintlanga, nezizwe, neelwimi, nabantu bonke. Sathi ngezwi elikhulu, Moyikeni uThixo, nimzukise, ngokuba lifikile ilixa lokugweba kwakhe; nimnqule lowo wenza izulu, nomhlaba, nolwandle, nemithombo yamanzi.”— ISityhilelo 14,6.7:XNUMX, XNUMX .

Umbuzo weSabatha

Ukuba esi sigidimi siyathotyelwa, siya kutsala ingqalelo yazo zonke iintlanga, nezizwe, neelwimi, nabantu. Umntu uya kuliphonononga iLizwi ngononophelo aze abone ukuba leliphi na igunya elatshintsha iSabatha yomhla wesixhenxe lamisela iSabatha yokuhlekisa. Indoda yesono imshiyile okuphela koThixo oyinyaniso, yawugatya umthetho wakhe, yasinyhashela eluthulini isiseko sakhe esingcwele seSabatha. Umthetho wesine, ocacileyo nongathandabuzekiyo, awuhoywa. Isikhumbuzo seSabatha esibhengeza uThixo ophilayo, uMdali wezulu nomhlaba, sisusiwe kwaye ihlabathi linikwe iSabatha yomgunyathi endaweni yoko. Ngale ndlela kudalwe umsantsa kumthetho kaThixo. Kuba iSabatha yobuxoki ayinakuba ngumgangatho oyinyaniso.

Kwisigidimi sengelosi yokuqala, abantu babizelwe ukunqula uThixo, uMdali wethu. Nguye owenza ihlabathi nako konke okukulo. Kodwa banikela imbeko kwisiseko sobupopu esodlula umthetho kaYHWH. Kodwa ulwazi malunga nesi sihloko luya kwanda.

Isigidimi esivakaliswa sisithunywa sezulu xa sibhabha esazulwini sezulu yivangeli engunaphakade, yona leya yashunyayelwayo e-Eden xa uThixo wathi kwinyoka, ‘Ndiya kubeka ubutshaba phakathi kwakho nomfazi, phakathi kwembewu yakho nembewu yabo. yona iya kukutyumza intloko, wena uya kuyityumza isithende.” ( Genesis 1:3,15 ) Esi yayisisithembiso sokuqala soMsindisi owayeya kucel’ umngeni aze awoyise kumkhosi kaSathana edabini. UYesu weza kwihlabathi lethu ukuze abe nendalo kaThixo njengoko ibonakala kumthetho wakhe ongcwele; kuba umthetho wakhe wumzobo wemvelo yakhe. UYesu wayengumthetho kunye nevangeli. Ingelosi evakalisa iindaba ezilungileyo ezingunaphakade ngaloo ndlela ivakalisa umthetho kaThixo; ngenxa yokuba ivangeli yosindiso ikhuthaza abantu ukuba bawuthobele umthetho baze ngaloo ndlela baguqulwe ubuntu bomfanekiselo kaThixo.

UIsaya 58 uchaza uthumo lwabo banqula uThixo njengoMdali wezulu nomhlaba: “Izinto ekudala ziphanzile ziya kubuya zakhiwe ngawe, yaye uya kuvusa oko kwasekwayo.” ( Isaya 58,12:84, 58,12, 14 ) Inkonzo yesikhumbuzo kaThixo , iSabatha yakhe yosuku lwesixhenxe, iyamiselwa. “Uya kubizwa ngokuba, ‘Lowo wakha iintanda nobuyisela izitrato ukuze bahlale abantu. Ukuba uthe walubamba unyawo lwakho ngomhla wesabatha, ukuba ungenzi unokuthanda ngomhla wam ongcwele; Ukuba uthe ukuyibiza isabatha isisonwabiso sakho, uyizukise ukuba yingcwele kaYehova; ndiya kukusa ezigangeni zelizwe, ndikudlise ilifa likaYakobi uyihlo. Ewe, umlomo kaYehova uthethile.”— Isaya XNUMX:XNUMX-XNUMX .

Icawa kunye nembali yehlabathi, ukuthembeka kunye nabo bangcatsha ukholo lwabo kutyhilwa ngokucacileyo apha. Ngokubhengezwa kwesigidimi sengelosi yesithathu, abathembekileyo babeke iinyawo zabo endleleni yemithetho kaThixo. Bayamhlonela, bamhlonele baze bamzukise Lowo wadala izulu nomhlaba. Kodwa imikhosi echasayo ayimhloneli uThixo ngokukrazula ikroba kumthetho wakhe. Ngokukhawuleza nje ukuba ukukhanya kweLizwi likaThixo kwatsalel’ ingqalelo kwimithetho yakhe engcwele kwaza kwatyhila umsantsa kumthetho owawudalwe ngoopopu, abantu bazama ukuwushenxisa wonke umthetho ukuze bazenze balunge ngakumbi. Ngaba baphumelele? Hayi. Kuba bonke abo bazifundayo iZibhalo bayaqonda ukuba umthetho kaThixo awuguquki yaye ungunaphakade; isikhumbuzo sakhe, iSabatha, siya kuhlala ngonaphakade. Kungenxa yokuba yahlula okuphela koThixo oyinyaniso kubo bonke oothixo bobuxoki.

USathana uye wazingisa yaye engadinwa wazabalazela ukuqhubeka nomsebenzi awawuqalayo ezulwini wokuguqula umthetho kaThixo. Wakwazi ukulenza likholelwe ihlabathi ukuba umthetho kaThixo wawunesiphako yaye wawufuna ukulungiswa. Wasasaza le ngcamango ezulwini ngaphambi kokuwa kwakhe. Inxalenye enkulu yecawa ebizwa ngokuba yeyobuKristu ibonisa, ukuba akunjalo ngamazwi, ngoko ubuncinane ngesimo sayo sengqondo, ukuba bakholelwa kwimpazamo efanayo. Kodwa ukuba igatyana elinye okanye isuntswana lomthetho kaThixo liyatshintshwa, ngoko uSathana uye wakuphumeza emhlabeni oko angazange akwazi ukukwenza ezulwini. Ubeke umgibe wakhe okhohlisayo kwaye unethemba lokuba iBandla kunye nehlabathi liya kuwela kulo. Kodwa ayinguye wonke umntu oya kuwela kumgibe wakhe. Kuya kwenziwa umgca phakathi kwabantwana bentobelo nabantwana bokungathobeli, phakathi kwabathembekileyo nabangathembekanga. Kuya kuvela amaqela amabini amakhulu, abanquli berhamncwa nomfanekiso walo nabanquli boThixo oyinyaniso nophilayo.

Umyalezo wehlabathi

Isigidimi esikwiSityhilelo 14 sivakalisa ukuba ilixa lomgwebo kaThixo lifikile. Iya kubhengezwa ekupheleni kwamaxesha. Isithunywa sezulu esikwiSityhilelo 10 simi ngonyawo olunye phezu kolwandle nolunye unyawo emhlabeni, sibonisa ukuba esi sigidimi sifikelela kumazwe akude. Ulwandle luwele, iziqithi zolwandle ziva ukuvakaliswa kwesigidimi sokugqibela sesilumkiso kwihlabathi.

“Ingelosi endayibonayo imi phezu kolwandle naphezu komhlaba yasiphakamisela ezulwini isandla sayo, yafunga lowo udla ubomi ngonaphakade kanaphakade, owadala izulu neento zonke ezikulo, nomhlaba nayo yonke into ekuwo, nolwandle, nolwandle, nolwandle, nolwandle, nolwandle, nolwandle. konke okukuyo: akuyi kuba sabakho xesha.” ( ISityhilelo 10,5.6:1844, XNUMX ) Esi sigidimi sivakalisa ukuphela kwamaxesha esiprofeto. Ukuphoxeka kwabo babelindele iNkosi yabo ngowe-XNUMX kwakukrakra ngokwenene kubo bonke ababekulangazelela kangaka ukubonakala kwayo. UYehova wakuvumela oku kuphoxeka ukuze iintliziyo zityhilwe.

Iqikelelwe ngokucacileyo kwaye ilungiselelwe kakuhle

Akukho ilifu lizinzileyo phezu kwebandla alenze ilungiselelo likaThixo; akukho gunya lichasayo livelayo ukuba lilwe nomsebenzi kaThixo angawubonanga usiza. Yonke into yenzekile njengoko wakuxela kwangaphambili ngabaprofeti bakhe. Akazange alishiye ebumnyameni ibandla lakhe okanye amlahle, kodwa wazixela kwangaphambili iziganeko ngezibhengezo zesiprofeto zaza zaziswa ngokubonelela kwakhe oko uMoya wakhe oyiNgcwele wakuphefumlela kubaprofeti njengesiprofeto. Zonke iinjongo zakhe ziya kufezekiswa. Umthetho wakhe unxulunyaniswa netrone yakhe. Kwanokuba imikhosi kaSathana neyabantu idibana, ayinakukwazi ukuyiphelisa. Inyaniso iphefumlelwe nguThixo yaye ilondolozwe nguye; Uya kuphila aze oyise, kwanokuba ngamanye amaxesha kubonakala ngathi uyasibekela. Ivangeli kaYesu ngumthetho oqulathwe kwisimo. Inkohliso esetyenzisiweyo ukulwa nayo, onke amaqhinga asetyenziselwa ukuthethelela impazamo, yonke inkohliso eyenziwa yimikhosi kaSathana ekugqibeleni iya kwaphulwa ekugqibeleni. Inyaniso iya koyisa njengelanga lasemini emaqanda. “Ilanga lobulungisa liya kuphuma, kwaye impiliso emaphikweni alo iya kuphilisa.” ( Malaki 3,20:72,19 ) “Umhlaba wonke uya kuzala bubuqaqawuli bakhe.” ( INdumiso XNUMX:XNUMX ) “Uzuko lwakhe luya kuhlanjululwa.”

Yonke into uThixo awayeyixele kwangaphambili kwimbali yesiprofeto sexesha elidlulileyo izalisekile, kwaye yonke into ezayo iya kuzaliseka enye emva kwenye. Umprofeti kaThixo uDaniyeli umi endaweni yakhe. UYohane umi endaweni yakhe. KwiSityhilelo, iNgonyama yesizwe sakwaYuda yavula incwadi kaDaniyeli kubafundi besiprofeto. Yiyo loo nto uDaniyeli emi endaweni yakhe. Unikela ubungqina ngezityhilelo awathi uYehova wamnika zona embonweni, iziganeko ezikhulu nezindilekileyo ekufuneka sizazi emgubasini wokuzaliseka kwazo.

Kwimbali nakwisiprofeto, iLizwi likaThixo lichaza ukungqubana okude nokuqhubekayo phakathi kwenyaniso nobuxoki. Ungquzulwano lusaqhubeka. Le nto yenzekileyo iya kuphinda yenzeke. Iingxabano ezindala ziqala kwakhona. Iithiyori ezintsha zihlala zivela. Kodwa ibandla likaThixo liyayazi apho lime khona. Kungenxa yokuba ukholelwa kwinzaliseko yesiprofeto ngokuvakaliswa kwesigidimi sengelosi yokuqala, eyesibini nesesithathu. Unamava axabiseke ngaphezu kwegolide engcwengiweyo. Ufanele eme angashukumi kwaye “abambelele nkqi kwintembelo yakhe yokuqala kude kuse ekupheleni” ( Hebhere 3,14:XNUMX ).

Amava malunga ne-1844

Isigidimi sokuqala nesesibini sengelosi sasikhatshwa ngamandla aguqulayo kanye njengokuba sinjalo esesithathu namhlanje. Abantu bakhokelelwa kwisigqibo. Amandla oMoya oyiNgcwele abonakala. ISibhalo esiNgcwele safundisiswa ngokucokisekileyo, ingongoma ngengongoma. Ubusuku babuchithwa kufundwa ngokunzulu eli gama. Sayifuna inyaniso ngokungathi sifuna ubutyebi obufihliweyo. Wazityhila ke uYehova. Ukukhanya kwakhanyisa kwiziprofeto yaye savakalelwa kukuba uThixo wayengumfundisi wethu.

Ezi ndinyana zilandelayo zisikrotyana nje soko siye sakufumana: “Thoba indlebe yakho uze uve amazwi ezilumko, intliziyo yakho inikele ingqalelo kukwazi kwam! Ngokuba kumnandi, xa uthe wawagcina embilinini wakho, Xa ewonke ehleli emlonyeni wakho. Ukuze ukholose ngoYehova, Ndikwazisile namhla, ewe, wena. Andikubhalelanga na iintetho ezibalaseleyo, ezinecebo nokufundisa, ukuba uwazi amazwi ayinyaniso, ukuze udlulisele amazwi enyaniso kwabakuthumileyo?”— IMizekeliso 22,17:21-XNUMX;

Emva kokuphoxeka okukhulu, bambalwa abaqhubeka befundisisa iLizwi ngentliziyo iphela. Kodwa abanye abazange badimazeke. bakholwa ukuba nguYehova owabakhokelayo. Inyaniso yatyhilwa kubo inyathelo nenyathelo. Yadibana nezona nkumbulo zingcwele kunye nothando lwabo. Aba bafuni benyaniso bavakalelwa kukuba: UYesu uzifanisa ngokupheleleyo nendalo yethu nezinto esinomdla kuzo. Inyaniso yavunyelwa ukuba iqaqambe ngobulula bayo obuhle, kwisidima namandla ayo. Wavakalisa ukuzithemba awayengekho ngaphambi kokuphoxeka. Sakwazi ukuvakalisa isigidimi njengamntu omnye.

Kodwa kwavela ukubhideka okukhulu phakathi kwabo bangazange bahlale bethembekile elukholweni namava abo. Zonke iimbono ezicingelwayo zathengiswa njengenyaniso; Kwavakala ilizwi likaYehova lisithi, Musani ukubakholwa; ... ngokuba andibathumanga” ( Yeremiya 12,6:27,15; XNUMX:XNUMX )

Sasilumkile ukuba sibambelele kuThixo endleleni. Umyalezo kufuneka ufikelele kwihlabathi. Ukukhanya okwakukho yayisisipho esikhethekileyo esivela kuThixo! Ukugqithiswa kokukhanya ngumyalelo kaThixo! UThixo wabakhuthaza abo babedanile ababesafuna inyaniso ukuze babelane nehlabathi, inyathelo nenyathelo, ngoko babekufundisiwe. Izibhengezo zesiprofeto zifanele ziphindaphindwe ize inyaniso eyimfuneko yosindiso yaziwe. Umsebenzi wawunzima ekuqaleni. Abaphulaphuli babedla ngokusigatya isigidimi njengesingaqondwayo, kwaza kwavela ungquzulwano olukhulu, ngokukodwa ngombandela weSabatha. Kodwa uYehova ubazisa ubuso bakhe. Ngamanye amaxesha isigqubuthelo esasifihla ubuqaqawuli baKhe emehlweni ethu sasiphakanyiswa. Saza sambona kwindawo yakhe ephakamileyo nengcwele.

Ngenxa yokuba amava oovulindlela beAdvent alahlekile

UYEHOVA akayi kufuna nabani na namhlanje ukuba ayibeke ecaleni inyaniso abaphefumlelwe ngayo uMoya oyiNgcwele abathunywa bakhe.

Njengakwixesha elidlulileyo, abaninzi baya kufuna ngokunyanisekileyo ulwazi eLizwini; baya kufumana ukwazi elizwini. Kodwa abanawo amava abo beva isigidimi sesilumkiso xa babeqala ukubhengezwa.

Ngenxa yokuba bengenawo la mava, abanye abalixabisi ixabiso leemfundiso eziye zasiphawula kwaye zisenze saba yicawe ekhethekileyo esiyiyo. Abazisebenzisi ngokufanelekileyo iZibhalo yaye ngenxa yoko bavelisa iingcamango ezibubuxoki. Bacaphula iindinyana ezininzi zeBhayibhile kwaye bafundisa inyaniso eninzi; kodwa inyaniso ixutywe nemposiso kangangokuba bafikelela kwizigqibo ezibubuxoki. Noko ke, ngenxa yokuba bebhala iindinyana zeBhayibhile kuzo zonke iingcamango zabo, babona umxokelelwane othe ngqo wenyaniso phambi kwabo. Abaninzi abangenawo amava eentsuku zokuqala bamkela ezi ngcamango zobuxoki kwaye bakhokelwa ngendlela engafanelekanga, babuyela emva endaweni yokuya phambili. Yiloo kanye injongo yotshaba.

Amava amaYuda ekutolikweni kwesiprofeto

Umnqweno kaSathana ngowokuba bonke abo bathi bayinyaniso ngoku baphinde imbali yohlanga lwamaYuda. AmaYuda ayenemibhalo yeTestamente eNdala kwaye aziva esekhaya kuwo. Kodwa benza impazamo enkulu. Iziprofeto zokubuya okuzukileyo kukaMesiya esemafini ezulu zasetyenziswa ngabo ekufikeni kwakhe kokuqala. Ngenxa yokuba ukufika kwakhe kungazange kufikelelwe koko babekulindele, bamnikela umva. USathana wakwazi ukubarhwebeshela emnatheni aba bantu, abalahlekise aze abatshabalalise.

Iinyaniso ezingcwele, zanaphakade zaziphathiswe bona ehlabathini. Ubuncwane boMthetho neVangeli, obunxibelelene ngokusondeleyo njengoYise noNyana, babuza kuziswa kulo lonke ihlabathi. Umprofeti uvakalisa oku: “Ngenxa yeZiyon andiyi kuthi tu, nangenxa yeYerusalem andiyi kuyeka, bude buphume njengokukhanya ubulungisa bayo, nosindiso lwayo njengesikhuni esidangazelayo; zibubone iintlanga ubulungisa bakho, nookumkani bonke babubone ubuqaqawuli bakho; uya kubizwa ngegama elitsha, eliya kumiswa ngumlomo kaYehova. ube sisithsaba sozuko esandleni sikaYehova, nonkontsho lobukumkani esandleni soThixo wakho.”— Isaya 62,1:3-XNUMX;

Utsho uYehova ngeYerusalem. Kodwa xa uYesu weza kweli hlabathi kanye njengoko kwakuprofetiwe, enobuthixo bakhe kwimo yomntu, ngokubini isidima nokuthobeka, uthumo lwakhe aluqondwa kakuhle. Ithemba lobuxoki lenkosana yasemhlabeni lakhokelela ekutolikweni phosakeleyo kweZibhalo.

UYesu wazalelwa kwikhaya elihlwempuzekileyo eselusana. Kodwa kwakukho abo babekulungele ukumamkela njengondwendwe lwasezulwini. Izithunywa eziziingelosi zabufihlela ubuqaqawuli bazo. Kubo, ikwayara yasezulwini yahlokoma kwiinduli zaseBhetelehem noHosana isiya kukumkani osandul’ ukuzalwa. Abalusi abaqhelekileyo bakholwa nguye, bamamkela, bamnika imbeko. Kodwa kwabona bantu babefanele bamkele uYesu kuqala abazange bamqonde. Yayingenguye lowo babethembele kuye ngamabhongo. Balandela indlela engalunganga ababeyithathile ukuya esiphelweni. Baba ngabangafundisekiyo, bazenza amalungisa, abakwazi ukuzimela. Babecinga ukuba ulwazi lwabo luyinyaniso yaye ke ngabo kuphela ababenokufundisa abantu ngokukhuselekileyo.

Iingcamango ezintsha zinokuba yintsholongwane okanye i-malware

Kwalo Sathana usaqhubeka esebenza namhlanje ukuze alwenze buthathaka ukholo lwabantu bakaThixo. Kukho abo bathi ngokukhawuleza bathabathe nayiphi na ingcamango entsha baze bazitolike ngendlela ephosakeleyo iziprofeto zikaDaniyeli nezeSityhilelo. Aba bantu abaqondi ukuba kwaamadoda awayemiselwe nguThixo ukuba enze lo msebenzi ukhethekileyo azise inyaniso ngexesha elimisiweyo. La madoda abona, inyathelo nenyathelo, inzaliseko echanileyo yesi siprofeto. Nabani na ongazange abe namava oku ngokobuqu akanakukhetha ngaphandle kokuthabatha ilizwi likaThixo aze akholwe “ilizwi labo”; ngokuba babekhokelwa nguYehova ekuvakaliseni isigidimi sokuqala, nesesibini, nesesithathu. Xa ezi zigidimi zamkelwe yaye zithotyelwa, zilungiselela abantu ukuba beme ngemini enkulu kaThixo. Ukuba sifundisisa iZibhalo ukuze siqinisekise inyaniso kaThixo ayinike abakhonzi bakhe kweli hlabathi, siya kuvakalisa izigidimi zengelosi yokuqala, eyesibini, neyesithathu.

Kukho iziprofeto ezisalindele ukuzaliseka. Kodwa umsebenzi ongalunganga wawusenziwa ngokuphindaphindiweyo. Lo msebenzi wobuxoki uqhutyelwa phambili ngabo bafuna ulwazi olutsha lwesiprofeto, kodwa ngokuthe ngcembe balufulathele ulwazi uThixo asele alunikezile. Ngemiyalezo yeSityhilelo 14 ihlabathi liyavavanywa; Ziivangeli ezingunaphakade kwaye kufuneka zivakaliswe kuyo yonke indawo. Kodwa ukuze zitolike ngokutsha iziprofeto ezavakaliswa zizixhobo zakhe ezinyuliweyo phantsi kwempembelelo yoMoya wakhe oyiNgcwele, uYehova akagunyazisi nabani na ukuba enjenjalo, ngakumbi abo bangenamava emsebenzini wakhe.

Ngokolwazi andinike lona uThixo, lo ngumsebenzi wena, Mzalwana uJohn Bell, ozama ukuwenza. Iimbono zakho ziye zanxulumana nabanye; Nangona kunjalo, oku kungenxa yokuba aba bantu abanalo ingqiqo yokuvavanya ubungakanani bokwenyani beengxoxo zakho. Amava abo omsebenzi kaThixo weli xesha alinganiselwe yaye ababoni apho iimbono zakho zibakhokelela phi. Nawe awuziboni. Bavumelana ngokulula neengxelo zakho kwaye abafumani mpazamo kubo; kodwa bakhohlisiwe ngenxa yokuba udibanise iindinyana ezininzi zeBhayibhile ukuxhasa ingcamango yakho. Iingxoxo zakho zibonakala zibaqinisekisa.

Izinto zahluke ngokupheleleyo kwabo sele benamava ngemfundiso enxulumene nexesha lokugqibela lembali yehlabathi. Bayabona ukuba umela iinyaniso ezininzi ezixabisekileyo; kodwa bayabona ukuba utolika iZibhalo ngendlela engeyiyo kwaye ubeka inyaniso kwisakhelo esingeyonyani sokuqinisa impazamo. Sukuvuya ukuba abanye bayayamkela imibhalo yakho! Akulula kubazalwana benu, abanithembayo njengamaKristu nabanithanda ninjalo, ukunixelela ukuba ingxoxo yenu, enentsingiselo engaka kuni, asiyongcamango yokwenyaniso. UThixo akakuthumanga ukuba uzivakalise ebandleni lakhe.

UThixo undibonisile ukuba izibhalo oziqulunqileyo awuziqondi ngokupheleleyo. Kungenjalo ubuya kubona ukuba iingcamango zakho zisingela phantsi ngokuthe ngqo isiseko sokholo lwethu.

Mntakwethu, kwanyanzeleka ukuba ndibayale abaninzi abalandela indlela efana neyakho, aba bantu babebonakala beqinisekile ukuba uThixo uyabakhokela. Beza neengcamango zabo ezahlukeneyo kubashumayeli abavakalisa inyaniso. Ndathi kwaba bashumayeli, “UYehova akasivumeli! Musani ukuzivumela ukuba nikhohliswe kwaye ningazithwali uxanduva lokukhohlisa abanye!” Kwiintlanganiso zasenkampini kwakufuneka ndilumkise ngokucacileyo nxamnye nabo baphambuka endleleni elungileyo ngale ndlela. Ndalivakalisa ilizwi elo ngelizwi, ndibhala, ndathi: “Ize ningenyuki niwalandele.” ( 1 Kronike 14,14:XNUMX ) Ewe, isigidimi eso ndasivakalisa ngokuvakalayo nangokubhala.

Imithombo ethandabuzekayo yempembelelo

Owona msebenzi unzima endakha ndanawo yayikukuqhubana nomntu endandimazi ukuba ufuna ngokwenene ukulandela uYehova. Kangangexesha elithile wayecinga ukuba wayefumana ulwazi olutsha kuYehova. Wayegula kakhulu kwaye kwafuneka afe ngokukhawuleza. Indlela endandinethemba ngayo entliziyweni yam ukuba akazundinyanzela ukuba ndimxelele lento ayenzayo. Abo wayebacacisela iimbono zakhe, bamphulaphula ngehlombe. Abanye babecinga ukuba uphefumlelwe. Wayenze imaphu waza wacinga ukuba wayenokuyibonisa ngokusuka kwizibhalo ukuba INKOSI yayiza kubuya ngomhla okhethekileyo ngowe-1894, ndiyakholelwa ukuba. Kwabaninzi, izigqibo zakhe zazibonakala zingenasiphako. Bathetha ngezilumkiso zakhe ezinamandla kwigumbi lasesibhedlele. Eyona mifanekiso mihle yadlula phambi kwamehlo akhe. Kodwa wawuyintoni umthombo wokuphefumlelwa kwakhe? Isidambisi-ntlungu imorphine.

Kwintlanganiso yethu yenkampu eLansing, eMichigan, ngaphambi nje kohambo lwam lwaseOstreliya, kwafuneka ndithethe ngokucacileyo ngoku kukhanya kutsha. Ndaxelela abaphulaphuli ukuba amazwi abawavileyo ayengeyonyaniso ephefumlelweyo. Ukukhanya okumangalisayo okwavakaliswa njengenyaniso ezukileyo yayikukutolikwa phosakeleyo kweendinyana zeBhayibhile. Umsebenzi kaYehova wawungayi kuphela ngowe-1894. Kwafika ilizwi likaYehova kum, lisithi: “Le asiyonyaniso, kodwa iyalahlekisa. Abanye baya kubhideka zezi ntetho kwaye balahle ukholo. ”

Abanye abantu bandibhalele malunga nemibono ecekeceke kakhulu abayifumeneyo. Ezinye zazishicilelwe. Babonakala bexhathiswa bubomi obutsha, bezele yinzondelelo. Kodwa ke ndiva kubo kwaeli lizwi ndilivayo kuwe, elithi: “Musani ukukholwa ngabo!” Udibanise inyaniso nenkohliso, ude ucinge ukuba yonke into iyinyani. Ngeli xesha amaYuda nawo akhubeka. Beluka ilaphu elibonakala lihle kubo, kodwa ekugqibeleni labangela ukuba balugatye ulwazi oluziswa nguYesu. Babecinga ukuba banolwazi olukhulu. Baphila ngolu lwazi. Ngoko ke, balugatya ulwazi olusulungekileyo, lokwenyaniso uYesu awayefanele ukubazisa kubo. Iingqondo zibamba umlilo kwaye zijoyine amashishini amatsha azisa kwiindawo ezingaziwayo.

Nabani na ogqibayo ukuba uYesu uya kubuya okanye akayi kubuya nini akazisi isigidimi esiyinyani. UThixo akamniki nangayiphi na indlela nabani na ukuba athi uMesiya uya kulibazisa ukuza kwakhe iminyaka emihlanu, elishumi, okanye engamashumi amabini. »Yiyo loo nto nawe ulungile! Kuba uNyana woMntu uza ngelixa eningalikhumbuleliyo.” ( Mateyu 24,44:XNUMX ) Esi sisigidimi sethu, esona sigidimi sivakaliswa zizithunywa zezulu ezintathu njengoko ziphaphazela esazulwini sezulu. Injongo yethu namhlanje kukubhengeza lo myalezo wokugqibela kwihlabathi eliwileyo. Ubomi obutsha buvela ezulwini kwaye buthabathe bonke abantwana bakaThixo. Kodwa izantlukwano ziya kuza ebandleni, iinkampu ezimbini ziya kukhula, ingqolowa nokhula ziya kukhula kunye kude kube sekuvuneni.

Ngokuya sisondela ekupheleni kwexesha, umsebenzi uya kuba nzulu kwaye ubaluleke ngakumbi. Bonke abangamadlelane kaThixo baya kululwela ukholo kube kanye, belunikelwa kwabangcwele. Abayi kupheliswa kwisigidimi sangoku esele sikhanyisela umhlaba ngobuqaqawuli bawo. Akukho nto ifanele ukuyilwela njengozuko lukaThixo. Ilitye elizinzileyo liliwa losindiso. Inyaniso njengoko injalo kuYesu yindawo yokusabela kule mihla yempazamo.

UThixo ubalumkisile abantu bakhe ngeengozi ezizayo. UYohane wabona iziganeko zokugqibela nabantu besilwa noThixo. Funda iSityhilelo 12,17:14,10; 13:17-13 kunye nesahluko 16,13 nese-XNUMX. UYohane ubona iqela labantu abalahlekisiweyo. Uthi, “Ndabona kuphuma emlonyeni wenamba, nasemlonyeni werhamncwa, nasemlonyeni womprofeti wobuxoki, oomoya abathathu abangcolileyo, befana namasele. Kuba bangoomoya beedemon, abo benza imiqondiso, abaphuma baye kubo ookumkani bomhlaba, nabelimiweyo liphela, ukubahlanganisela emfazweni ngaloo mini inkulu kaThixo, uSomandla. Yabona, ndiza njengesela; Unoyolo lowo uphaphileyo aze azigcine iimpahla zakhe, ukuze angahambi ze lize libonakale ihlazo lakhe!” ( ISityhilelo XNUMX:XNUMX ) Ngoko ke, xa sibona iZibhalo, iZibhalo zesiHebhere zithetha ukuba ‘umntu ophaphileyo’ uya kuhlala ehleli.

Ulwazi lukaThixo lurhoxile kwabo bayigatyayo inyaniso. Abazange basamkele isigidimi seNgqina eliThembekileyo: “Ndiyakucebisa, ukuba uthenge kum igolide evuthiswe emlilweni, ukuze ube nobutyebi, neengubo ezimhlophe, ukuze wambeswe, lingabonakali ihlazo lobuze bakho. ; uthambise amehlo akho ngeoli, ukuze ubone!” ( ISityhilelo 3,18:XNUMX ) Kodwa esi sigidimi siya kuwenza umsebenzi waso. Abantu baya kulungiselelwa ukuma bengenabala phambi koThixo.

Ukunyaniseka nomanyano

UYohane wasibona isihlwele wathi: “Masigcobe, simemelele, simzukise! kuba ufikile umtshato weMvana, nomfazi wayo uzilungisile. Lanikwa ukuba ambathe ilinen ecikizekileyo, eqaqambileyo, eqaqambileyo; kuba ilinen ecikizekileyo bubulungisa babangcwele.” ( ISityhilelo 19,7.8:XNUMX, XNUMX ) Ilaphu elicikizekileyo libubulungisa.

Esi siprofeto sizalisekiswa indinyana ngendinyana: Okukhona sibambelela ngokuthembeka kumgangatho wesigidimi sengelosi yesithathu, kokukhona siya kuziqonda ngokucacileyo iziprofeto ezikuDaniyeli; kuba ISityhilelo sisizekelisa uDaniyeli. Okukhona silufumana ngokuzeleyo ulwazi olunikelwa nguMoya oyiNgcwele ngabakhonzi abamiselweyo bakaThixo, kokukhona imfundiso yesiprofeto samandulo yaqiniswa ngokunzulu ngakumbi iya kubonakala kuthi – eneneni, imiselwe ngokunzulu nangokukhuselekileyo njengetrone engunaphakade. Siya kuqiniseka ukuba amazwi amadoda kaThixo aphefumlelwe nguMoya oyiNgcwele. Nabani na ofuna ukuqonda amazwi omoya abaprofeti udinga uMoya oyiNgcwele ngokwakhe. Ezi zigidimi azizange zinikwe abaprofeti, kodwa zazinikwe bonke ababeya kuphila phakathi kweziganeko eziprofetiweyo.

Bangaphezu kwesinye okanye ababini ekucingelwa ukuba bafumene ulwazi olutsha. Bonke bakulungele ukuvakalisa ulwazi lwabo. Kodwa uThixo wayeya kuvuya ukuba ayelwamkela aze aluthobele ulwazi awayesele elunikwe. Ufuna basekele ukholo lwabo kwiivesi zeBhayibhile ezixhasa ukuma kwebandla likaThixo ixesha elide. Ivangeli yanaphakade kufuneka ibhengezwe ngezixhobo zabantu. Ngumsebenzi wethu ukuvumela imiyalezo yeengelosi iphaphazele esazulwini sezulu kunye nesilumkiso sokugqibela esiya kwihlabathi eliwileyo. Nangona singabizwanga ukuba siprofete, nangona kunjalo sibizelwe ukuba sikholelwe iziprofeto kwaye, kunye noThixo, sizise olu lwazi kwabanye. Yile nto sizama ukuyenza.

Ungasinceda ngeendlela ezininzi mntakwethu. Kodwa uYehova undithumile ukuba ndikuxelele ukuba ungajongi isiqu sakho. Lumka xa uphulaphula, uqonda kwaye ufaka ngaphakathi iLizwi likaThixo! UYehova uya kunisikelela ukuze nisebenze kunye nabazalwana benu. Abapapashi bakhe abathunyiweyo besigidimi sengelosi yesithathu basebenza kunye nezazi zasezulwini. UYehova akakuthumanga ukuba uvakalise ilizwi eliya kubangela ukungavisisani phakathi kwamakholwa. Ndiyaphinda ndithi: Akakhokeli namnye ngoMoya wakhe oyiNgcwele ukuba aphuhlise ithiyori eya kujongela phantsi ukholo kwizigidimi ezindilisekileyo azinike abantu Bakhe ehlabathini.

Ndikucebisa ukuba ungayijongi imibhalo yakho njengenyaniso exabisekileyo. Bekungayi kuba bubulumko ukuziqhubela phambili ngokuprinta oko bekubangela intloko ebuhlungu kangaka. Asikokuthanda kukaThixo ukuba lo mbandela uziswe phambi kwebandla lakhe, kuba uya kusithintela kwa isigidimi senyaniso esifanele sisikholelwe kwaye sisenze kule mihla yokugqibela, iyingozi.

Iimfihlo ezisiphazamisayo

INkosi uYesu yathi kubafundi bayo xa yayikunye nabo: “Ndisenezinto ezininzi zokuthetha kuni; kodwa aninako ukukuthwala ngoku.” ( Yoh. 16,12:XNUMX ) Ngewayetyhile izinto ezazinokutsalela ingqalelo yabafundi kangangokuba babenokulibala ngokupheleleyo oko wayebafundise ngaphambili. Bafanele bacinge nzulu ngemibandela yakhe. Ngoko ke, uYesu wazibandeza izinto ezaziya kubakhwankqisa waza wabanika ithuba lokugxeka, lokungaqondani nokunganeliseki. Akazange anike abantu abanokholo oluncinane nababeya kuba ngabangcwele isizathu sokuyifihla nokugqwetha inyaniso baze ngaloo ndlela babe negalelo ekusekweni kweenkampu.

UYesu ngewayezityhilile iimfihlelo ezaziza kubonelela ngokutya kokucinga nophando kwizizukulwana, kude kube sekupheleni kwexesha. Njengomthombo wayo yonke inzululwazi yokwenyaniso, ngewayekhuthaze abantu ukuba bahlolisise iimfihlelo. Ngoko ngebabethabatheke ngokupheleleyo kwiminyaka yabo yonke kangangokuba babengenakunqwenela ukutya inyama yoNyana kaThixo nokusela igazi lakhe.

UYesu wayesazi kakuhle ukuba uSathana uhlala esenza amayelenqe yaye exakekisa abantu ngeengcinga. Ngokwenjenjalo, uzama ukuyibetha ngoyaba inyaniso enkulu nenkulu uYesu afuna ukusicacisela yona: “Bubo ke obu ubomi obungunaphakade, ukuba mabakwazi, wena ukuphela koThixo oyinyaniso, naye lowo umthumileyo, uYesu Kristu.” ( Mateyu 17,3:XNUMX ) Ngokucacileyo, uYesu Kristu, uYesu Kristu, uYesu Kristu, wanikela ubungqina obucacileyo bokuba ‘ubomi obungunaphakade. (Yohane XNUMX:XNUMX)

Gxininisa kwimitha yokukhanya kwaye uyilondoloze njengobutyebi

Kukho isifundo kumazwi kaYesu emva kokondla abangama-5000 6,12. Wathi: “Buthani amaqhekeza aseleyo, ukuze kungonakali.” ( Yoh. XNUMX:XNUMX ) La mazwi ayethetha okungakumbi kunokuba abafundi baqokelele amaqhekeza esonka kwiingobozi. UYesu wathi bafanele bawacengceleze amazwi akhe, bafundisise izibhalo, baze bayixabise yonke imitha yokukhanya. Kunokuba bafune ulwazi uThixo angalutyhilanga, bafanele baqokelele ngenyameko oko abanike kona.

USathana ufuna ukulususa ezingqondweni zabantu ulwazi ngoThixo aze alushenxise ezintliziyweni zabo iimpawu zikaThixo. Umntu wenze izinto ezininzi eziqanjiweyo ekholelwa ukuba nguye owayilayo. Ucinga ukuba ulumke kunoThixo. Oko uThixo wakutyhilayo kwakutolikwa ngendlela engeyiyo, kwasetyenziswa kakubi, kwaxutywa neenkohliso zikaSathana. USathana ucaphula izibhalo ukuze akhohlise. Wayesele ezama ukumqhatha ngazo zonke iindlela uYesu yaye namhlanje uthetha nabantu abaninzi esebenzisa indlela efanayo. Uya kubenza bazitolike ngendlela ephosakeleyo iZibhalo aze abenze amangqina aloo mpazamo.

UYesu weza kulungisa loo nyaniso ilahlekileyo eyayihambisela phambili impazamo. Wayichola, wayiphinda waza wayibuyisela kwindawo yayo efanelekileyo kwisakhiwo senyaniso. Waza wathi mayime khona. Oku koko wakwenzayo ngomthetho kaThixo, ngeSabatha, nangelungiselelo lomtshato.

Ungumzekelo wethu. USathana ufuna ukucima yonke into esibonisa uThixo oyinyaniso. Kodwa abalandeli bakaYesu bafanele bakulinde njengobutyebi konke uThixo akutyhilileyo. Akukho nyaniso yeLizwi laKhe etyhilwe kubo ngoMoya waKhe inokubekelwa bucala.

Iithiyori zihlala zibekwa phambili ezixakekisa ingqondo kwaye zishukumise ukholo lukabani. Abo babephila ngokwenene kwixesha lokuzaliseka kweziprofeto baye baba yiloo nto bayiyo namhlanje ngezi ziprofeto: iSeventh-day Adventist. Uya kubhinqa inyaniso esinqeni sakhe, anxibe isikrweqe sonke. Kwanabo bangenawo la mava banokuvakalisa isigidimi senyaniso ngentembelo efanayo. Ukukhanya uThixo akunike abantu bakhe ngovuyo akuyi kuyenza buthathaka intembelo yabo. Kwakhona uya kulomeleza ukholo lwawo kwindlela awabakhokela ngayo kwixesha elidluleyo. Kubalulekile ukubamba ukuzithemba kwakho kokuqala kude kube sekupheleni.

“Nalu unyamezelo lwabangcwele, naba bayigcinayo imithetho kaThixo, nokholo kuYesu.” ( ISityhilelo 14,12:18,1 ) Apha sinyamezela siqinile: phantsi kwesigidimi sengelosi yesithathu: “Emva koko ndabona isihlwele esikhulu isihlwele esikhulu. Ingelosi yehla ivela ezulwini inegunya elikhulu, yaye umhlaba wakhanyiselwa bubuqaqawuli bakhe. Sadanduluka ngamandla, ngezwi elikhulu, sisithi, Iwile, iwile iBhabheli, enkulu, yaba likhaya leedemon, nentolongo yoomoya bonke abangcolileyo, nentolongo yeentaka zonke ezingcolileyo, ezithiyekileyo. Ngokuba zonke iintlanga zisele kuyo iwayini eshushu yobuhenyu bayo, Nookumkani bomhlaba bahenyuza nayo, Nabarhwebi bomhlaba baba zizityebi ngenxa yobunewunewu bayo obukhulu. Ndeva elinye izwi liphuma emazulwini lisithi: Phumani kuyo, bantu bam, Ukuze ningadlelani nayo ngezono zayo, Ukuze ningamkeliswa kwizibetho zayo. Kuba izono zabo zifikelela emazulwini, yaye uThixo ubukhumbule ubugwenxa babo.”— ISityhilelo 5:XNUMX-XNUMX .

Ngale ndlela, umongo wesigidimi sengelosi yesibini kwakhona unikwa ihlabathi ngesinye isithunywa sezulu esikhanyisa umhlaba ngobungangamsha baso. Ezi zigidimi ziyadibana zonke zibe yinto enye ukuze zifikelele abantu ngemihla yokugqibela yembali yeli hlabathi. Ihlabathi liphela liya kuvavanywa, kwaye bonke ababesebumnyameni ngeSabatha yomthetho wesine baya kusiqonda isigidimi sokugqibela senceba ebantwini.

Buza imibuzo efanelekileyo

Umsebenzi wethu kukubhengeza imiyalelo kaThixo kunye nobungqina bukaYesu Krestu. “Zilungiselele ukuhlangana noThixo wakho!” ( Amosi 4,12:12,1 ) sisilumkiso ehlabathini. Isebenza kuye ngamnye wethu ngokobuqu. Sibizelwe ukuba ‘siwulahle wonke umthwalo, nesono esisirhintyela ngokulula.’ ( Hebhere XNUMX:XNUMX ) Kukho umsebenzi ophambi kwakho, mzalwana wam: Zibotshwe edyokhweni kunye noYesu! Qinisekisa ukuba wakhela phezu kwelitye! Musa ukubeka emngciphekweni unaphakade ngenxa yoqikelelo! Kusenokwenzeka ukuba awusayi kuphinda ube nazo iziganeko eziyingozi eziqalisa ukwenzeka ngoku. Akukho mntu unokutsho ukuba ilixa lakhe lokugqibela lifikile nini na. Ngaba akukho ngqiqweni ukuvuka ngalo lonke ixesha, uzigocagoce kwaye uzibuze: Lithetha ukuthini ingunaphakade kum?

Wonke umntu kufuneka akhathazeke ngale mibuzo: Ngaba intliziyo yam iyahlaziywa? Ngaba umphefumlo wam utshintshile? Ngaba izono zam zixolelwe ngokukholwa kuYesu? Ngaba ndizelwe ngokutsha? Ndilandela esi simemo: “Yizani kum nonke nina nibulalekayo, nisindwayo ngumthwalo, ndoninika ukuphumla.” Thabathani idyokhwe yam niyithwale, nifunde kum, ngokuba ndinobulali, ndithobekile ngentliziyo; noyifumanela ukuphumla imiphefumlo yenu. Kuba idyokhwe yam imnandi, nomthwalo wam ulula” ( Mateyu 11,28:30-3,8 )? Ngaba “yonke into ndiyithatha njengento ephuthileyo kulwazi olugqwesileyo olungoKristu Yesu” ( Filipi XNUMX:XNUMX )? Ngaba ndiziva ndinoxanduva lokukholelwa onke amazwi aphuma emlonyeni kaThixo?

“Ubungqina Ngokuphathelele Iimbono Zesiprofeto Esiphethwe NguJohn Bell” ( Cooranbong, Ostreliya, Novemba 8, 1896), Umbhalo-ngqangi ukhupha i-17, 1-23.
