singakholwa kanjani Futhi ukholo lungenzani?

“Sesilungisisiwe ngokholo, sinokuthula kuNkulunkulu ngeNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu.” ( Roma 5,1:XNUMX ) Ukulungisiswa kusho ukuthiwa ulungile [uhlanzekile], ulungile ngokholo.

'Okholwa nguye olungisisa ongamesabi uNkulunkulu, uyakuba-njalo Ukholo kuthiwa ukulunga [ukuhlanzeka].” “Kepha ngikhuluma ngokulunga [ukuhlanzeka] phambi kukaNkulunkulu ozayo ngokukholwa kuJesu Kristu kubo bonke abakholwayo.”—Roma 4,5:3,22; XNUMX:XNUMX.

Umnikelo kaNkulunkulu ngenhliziyo yakho: umhlophe kunomhlophe

Ngakho lokhu kulunga kuthatha indawo yazo zonke izono zethu. INkosi yenzani ngezono zethu? “Noma izono zenu zibomvu ngegazi, nokho ziyakuba mhlophe njengeqhwa; noma zibomvu okwegazi, ziyakuba njengoboya bezimvu.” ( Isaya 1,18:XNUMX )

Isimo esisha siphambene ncamashi nesidala: noma ngabe zimnyama kangakanani izono, zenziwa zibe mhlophe qhwa. Siyokwembathiswa izingubo ezimhlophe, izono zethu ezibomvu zegazi ziyosuswa kithi, izingubo zethu ezingcolile zizophendulwa zibe uboya obumhlophe qhwa. Ngakho uma sicela ukuba izono zethu zisuswe kithi, sicela ukuhlanzwa.

Kusho ukuthini ukwenziwa kube mhlophe qhwa? “Izembatho zakhe zaba mhlophe, zaba mhlophe kakhulu, ngendlela okungekho mhlophe emhlabeni ongazenza zibe mhlophe.” ( Marku 9,3:XNUMX ) Yona kanye le sambatho sembathiswa thina, esimhlophe kakhulu ukwedlula noma yimuphi umthaki omhlophe ongayenziwa. Ingabe lesi sithembiso asizuzisi? Okholwayo uncike kulesi sithembiso.

Susa ubumnyama!

“Ngiyakwesula ububi bakho njengefu nezono zakho njengenkungu. Phendukela kimi, ngoba ngizokuhlenga.” ( Isaya 44,22:22 a ) UJehova usesikhokhile kakade isihlengo ngokufa kukaMesiya. Manje uthi: “Buyela kimi, ngokuba ngikuhlengile!” ( ivesi XNUMX b ) Amafu amnyama amnyama nenkungu eminyene iyancibilika, kuyaqedwa.

“Uphi uNkulunkulu onjengawe, othethelela izono, othethelela ububi balabo abaseleyo efeni lakhe; ongabambeleli entukuthelweni yakhe kuze kube phakade, ngokuba ethanda umusa. Uyophinde abe nesihe kithi, anyathele ububi bethu ngaphansi kwezinyawo zethu futhi aziphonse zonke izono zethu ekujuleni kolwandle.” ( Mika 7,18.19:12,17, 14,12 ) Ubani athethelelayo? Abasele ngemuva? Okunye? Labo abagcina imiyalo futhi benokholo lukaJesu (IsAmbulo XNUMX:XNUMX; XNUMX:XNUMX). Ngakho lesi sithembiso ngesethu. Uyasenzela yena. Ususa izono zethu. Uyakujabulela ukusiphatha kangcono kunalokho esisifanele. Uyajabula ngathi lapho simkholelwa. Zonke izono zethu ziyophonswa ekujuleni kolwandle, ekujuleni ongakucabanga. Akusona yini isithembiso esihle leso?

Ukuqhubeka: Itimu yocingo olukhulu: kukhululekile kunomahhala
