Isikhathi sokufunda: imizuzu eyi-10

Ukujwayela okusha kukaJesu kuzakhela igama: Abakhethiweyo. Ngenxa yamafilimu ambalwa kaJesu engangiwabone ngisemusha, angizange ngifune nokuwabheka. Mayelana nokuqukethwe, lokhu kujwayela kwefilimu ngeke kube ngcono, ngacabanga. Bengilokhu ngitelekile nge-Pasion of the Christ kaMel Gibson kuze kube namuhla ngoba “ukuthakasela” isici esinonya sokufa kukaJesu okuwumhlatshelo kuyinto engavamile kimi.

Into entsha ngokuphelele nge-The Chosen manje isingumlingiswa owuchungechunge. Kuzoba nezinkathi eziyisikhombisa zamafilimu ayisishiyagalombili iyinye. Amasizini amathathu asekhishiwe kusukela ngo-8. Ngokusekelwe ezincomweni ezivela kubantu abathandekayo, ngaqala ukubuka uchungechunge futhi ngihlale nalo kuze kube manje, ngibuke zonke izingxenye izikhathi ezimbalwa kanye namavidiyo amaningi okwenza. Kungani?

Uchungechunge olunamandla

Ngoba uchungechunge empeleni lunamandla okuba nomthelela emlandweni womhlaba. Ngoba kuyathakazelisa ngokwedlulele ngokombono wama-Adventist. Ngoba kwakwandisa umbono wami ngamavangeli ngingalindele. - Kodwa ngamunye ngamunye:

Ingxenye yentuthuko yesikhathi sokuphela?

Emashumini eminyaka amuva nje sibone ubuKristu buhambela kude noNkulunkulu neBhayibheli. Ngisho nase-USA "yobuKristu", inani labantu abangakholelwa kuNkulunkulu liye landa kancane kancane. Nokho, isiprofetho seBhayibheli sibikezela ukuthi izwe lonke liyowela ngaphansi kwenkulumo-ze yobuKristu, lize liphendukele ngisho neqembu elincane lenkolo eligcina iSabatha. Kodwa lokho kufanele kwenzeke kanjani lapho inani labantu abazibona bengabalandeli bakaJesu lincipha kancane kancane?

Ngomlayezo wawo, amaSeventh-day Adventist afinyelela abantu abanesizinda sobuKristu. Yebo, abaningi abafuna ukubhapathizwa banokuhlangenwe nakho kwangaphambili kwamanye amabandla. Kodwa The Chosen iphinde ifinyelele kubantu abaningi ababengabazi ngempela ubuKristu noma ababenezincazelo ezimbi ezingokomzwelo kubo. Lokho kukwenza ulangazelele.

Ingabe Abakhethiweyo bayinkohliso yobudeveli noma ingabe uMoya kaNkulunkulu usebenza kulolu chungechunge?

Hlola konke!

IBhayibheli liyasikhuthaza: “Zivivinyeni zonke izinto nigcine okuhle.” ( 1 Thesalonika 5,21:XNUMX ) Noma kunjalo, kufanele abukele ambalwa kakhulu amafilimu afakiwe. Kubantu abaningi, ukubuka nje izibuyekezo kuzokutshela ukuthi awudingi ukuchitha noma yisiphi isikhathi nabo. Futhi, izono eziningi ziyavezwa futhi zikhazinyuliswe ngisho kumafilimu amaningi kangangokuthi kungcono ukunikeza indawo ebanzi.

Nokho, eThe Chosen, amakholwa ambalwa evangeli ahlanganyele ndawonye emthandazweni ukuze asondeze uJesu nesigijimi sakhe kubantu. Ngokwenza kanjalo, babonisa izinga lobuchwepheshe, ukuzinikela kanye nendlela ehlaba umxhwele. Njengabantu, asikwazi ukubona enhliziyweni; ngakho-ke, uNkulunkulu kuphela owazi izinga lokungabi nabugovu kwezisusa zabo. Noma kunjalo, amafilimu angahlolwa ngokuqukethwe kwawo.

Kulula ukuqonda ngokusebenzisa i-docking yomuntu siqu

Kodwa ungalushutha kanjani uchungechunge olunengqikithi yamafilimu angu-54 ngoJesu athatha imizuzu engu-50 ngokwesilinganiso? Amavangeli awanikezi izinto ezingako. Nokho, abenzi bamafilimu bathatha inkululeko yokusebenzisa ulwazi lwevangeli njengohlaka lwezindaba zokuphila ezizwakalayo zabafundi abangu-12 nabanye abantu abahlangana noJesu. Ngenxa yalokho, umbukeli uzihlanganisa nazo futhi izindimana ezaziwa kakhulu zeBhayibheli zembula ithonya elinamandla elingokomzwelo. Ixhumene neBhayibheli.

Umbono wama-Adventist

Njenge-Adventist, ngokwemvelo ubheka lolu chungechunge ngamehlo abucayi. Konke lokhu kuya ngakuphi? Ingabe izimfundiso zamanga namaqiniso eBhayibheli asakazwa lapha? Imuphi umoya ovunguzayo lapha?

Umculo

Okuphazamisa kakhulu ingoma yetimu ye-Michael Jackson-esque kanye nezinye izingoma ezimbalwa ezivela ku-The Chosen, nakuba lezi zikhawulelwe emculweni wokuvula nokuvala kanye nezigcawu ezimbalwa kakhulu kumasizini amathathu okuqala. Ngokwezinkulumo zabo, abaculi bafuna ukukubeka kucace ukuthi indaba kaJesu ayilona uthuli futhi ayiphelelwa yisikhathi, kodwa iyisimanjemanje futhi ibalulekile namuhla. Phela iphrojusa yenziwe ngabavangeli engingahlangani nosiko lwabo lomculo. Kodwa futhi angihlanganyeli ngesiko lokuchithwa kwegazi nemishado eminingi yakwa-Israyeli wasendulo. Nokho, ngikholelwa ukuthi uNkulunkulu angasebenza futhi esebenzisa abantu abaqotho bakwamanye amasiko.

imisho ehlubukayo

Emafilimini angu-24 esewonke kuze kube manje, kunemisho emibili engiyithole emngceleni. Inkulumo kaJesu eyodwa yayingaqondwa sengathi uyise uJosefa usevele esezulwini, enye sengathi siyowela esonweni kaningi kuze kufike ukuBuya kwesiBili. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, iSabatha livezwa ngokuningiliziwe nangokukhangayo, futhi ukukhululwa esonweni, ebugovu, nasezinkolelweni zenkolo yamanga kuqhubeka kulo lonke uchungechunge.

Ngimangele

Ngesitolimende esisha ngasinye, ngilinda isikhathi lapho uchungechunge luqala indlela eholela ekubhujisweni kwalo, uma kuphela ukubhujiswa okusobala okuncane kokuqonda kobuKristu bopapa; kodwa ngaso sonke isikhathi ngimangala ngendlela umlayezo weBhayibheli odluliselwa kahle ngayo kubabukeli.

Kubantu abangasonti

Yingakho sengilutuse kakade lolu chungechunge kubantu enganginomuzwa wokuthi izincwadi zakudala zezithunywa zevangeli zazingabaniki thuba ngenxa yezizathu ezihlukahlukene. Noma abantu okuthi, naphezu kweminyaka eminingi bebhekene nezindaba ezingokomoya, baqhubeke behlehla ngokomzwelo. Futhi ngokumangalisayo, lolu chungechunge luhambisana nabo futhi ukufuna ulwazi lomuntu siqu noJesu sekuqalile (futhi).

ulwazi lwangemuva

Abalingisi nezisebenzi eziningi bavela ezizindeni ezihlukene zenkolo. Ngaphezu kwakho konke, umlingisi oyinhloko u-Jonathan Roumie ungumKatolika ozinikele kakhulu futhi othanda uPapa, okukwenza uhlale uqaphele. Izindima zakhe kanye nokuba khona kwenkundla yezokuxhumana ngaphandle kwe-The Chosen kubheke endaweni ekhathazayo. Ubaba kaMqondisi uDallas Jenkins naye ungomunye wababhali ababili kuLeft Behind. Ngeshwa, ngale ncwadi kanye nokujwayela kwayo kwefilimu, ukuhlubuka kokuHlwithwa Okuyimfihlo kwaqala udwendwe lwayo lokunqoba ebuKristwini. Kodwa lokho akulishintshi iqiniso lokuthi indodana kaJerry Jenkins yakwazi ukubhala i-screenplay nozakwabo ababili futhi yaqondisa abalingisi ngendlela yokuthi abantu badonseke kuJesu weBhayibheli. U-Dallas ubonakala egxile kakhulu kulokho afuna ukuba lo mdlalo ukwenze, okuwuhlelo lokwenza abantu bafunde iBhayibheli, bathandaze, futhi baphile noNkulunkulu futhi.

Ukuyenga noma Usizo?

Uma ijubane lokuqoshwa ligcinwa futhi iphrojekthi iqhubeka nokuxhaswa ngendlela yokuthi amafilimu ahlale etholakala mahhala ngohlelo lokusebenza olukhethiwe, isizini yokugcina ingase ikhishwe ngo-2027. Ukuthuthukiswa okuqhubekayo kuzobonisa ukuthi uchungechunge ekugcineni luholela abantu kuPapa kanye ne-ajenda yakhe yesikhathi sokuphela noma phambili kuJesu futhi luwusizo ekulungiseleleni ukubuya kwakhe.

Isenzo sikaSathane sokuphelelwa ithemba?

Kungenzeka yini ukuthi inhlekelele ezayo, kuhlanganise nomthetho wangeSonto kanye nesimemezelo sokufa, kuyoba isenzo sikaSathane sokuphelelwa ithemba? (Isenzo sakhe sokugcina sokuphelelwa ithemba siyoba ukuhlasela kweJerusalema Elisha.)

Lapho ubuKristu buthatha umhlaba ngemva kokuba uJesu enyukele endlini engcwele yasezulwini, uSathane waphoqeleka ukuba aguqule isu lakhe: akabange esabalandela abantu bakaNkulunkulu ngemibuso yezwe, kodwa wamisa isihlalo sakhe sobukhosi enhliziyweni yobuKristu: eRoma. Kwadingeka agqoke ingubo yobuKristu ukuze angalahlekelwa ithonya lakhe. Wenza ngoPapa njengommeleli kaKristu emhlabeni.

Lapho iNguquko yenza ukuba iBhayibheli liphinde litholakale ngezilimi zabantu, iSonto LamaRoma Katolika laphinde laphoqeleka ukuba lishintshe isu: lahileleka kungazelelwe ekuhunyushweni kweBhayibheli ngokwalo, futhi namuhla amaKatolika amaningi atadisha iBhayibheli emakhaya namaqembu omuntu siqu kunanini ngaphambili.

Phakathi naleso sikhathi, kungenzeka ukuthi uSathane uzame ukubhubhisa ubuKristu ngaphandle futhi esebenzisa uCharles Darwin, uFriedrich Nietzsche, uKarl Marx, uRichard Dawkins nabanye. Kodwa uNkulunkulu usenabo abantu abakhulu, abahlakazekile emabandleni nasemahlelweni amaningi - futhi uyabasebenzisa kakhulu ngangokunokwenzeka. Amandla obumnyama asebenzisa ubuhlakani obukhulu ukuduna le mizamo. Inkohliso evuthayo yayihloselwe wonke amaKristu alangazelela imvuselelo kanye nePhentekoste lesibili. Kodwa ukweqisa kwabo ngokuvamile kuyenyanyeka kangangokuthi ingxenye enkulu yobuKristu ayifuni lutho ngabo.

U-Dallas Jenkins uvela esontweni labavangeli eliphikisana ngokusobala nokwabiwa okunamandla. Uma oKhethiwe embuyisela ngempela uJesu weBhayibheli kumuntu namuhla, uSathane cishe kuyodingeka aguqule isu lakhe ngokuphindaphindiwe, aze abonakale njengoJesu ngokwakhe, ukuze avimbele abantu ukuba bangalitholi iqiniso eligcwele.

Umgomo wakhe uwukwenza amaKristu alungele ukusebenzisa ubudlova kubantu abagcina yonke imiyalo kaNkulunkulu futhi empeleni baphile ukuphila okufana noJesu. Noma iyiphi indlela ilungile kuye.

ukuphenduka nomkhuleko

Kukithi ukuthi siphenduke ngokungalishumayeli ivangeli ngempumelelo kulomhlaba. Ngenxa yokuthi ibandla lakhe lesikhathi sokuphela lilele eLawodikeya, uNkulunkulu kufanele asebenzise abantwana bakhe bakwamanye amabandla ukuze afinyelele abantu. Nokho uNkulunkulu angasebenzisa wonke umuntu ozinikele kuye.

Singaphinda silwe ngomkhuleko ukuze siqinisekise ukuthi amandla obumnyama ayavinjwa futhi awakwazi ukusebenzisa ivangeli ngezinjongo zawo. Kungafiseleka ukuthi izinkathi ezimbalwa ezizayo zencwadi ethi Abakhethiweyo zihlale zinamathele kuJesu waseBhayibhelini futhi ziqede amasiko obuKristu azungeza uJesu. Kodwa kungase kuhlale kuyisifiso esingcwele.

Kuze kube manje, ngibona Okukhethiwe njengethuluzi elingasondeza abantu abakude noJesu kanye neBhayibheli kuNkulunkulu, libenze bakwazi ukubona inkohliso yesikhathi sokuphela kwasekuqaleni, noma ngabe basese The Chosen kufanele. i-manifest.

ukuze babe ngabenzi kuJesu

Kunoma ikuphi, manje isikhathi esingakaze sibe khona sokutadisha uJesu emaVangelini. Incwadi ethi Sieg der Liebe (Leben Jesus), engiyifunde izikhathi eziningi, ingisize kakhulu ukuvumela imibhalo yevangeli leBhayibheli emifushane ukuthi ingiguqule futhi inikeze uJesu indawo enhliziyweni yami. Uma uJesu evunyelwe ukuba aphile kithi, kwabanye abantu siwukuphela kweBhayibheli asebelifundile kuze kube manje futhi ngaleyo ndlela sisebenze njengomondli weqiniso elisindisayo.

UKhethiwe naye ufuna ukuba ngumphakeli. Sengathi singalususa ugodo emehlweni ethu ngaphambi kokuba sikhiphe ibala emehlweni abazalwane bethu abangabavangeli. UNkulunkulu usinike amaqiniso ayigugu (iSabatha, umphefumulo ofayo, ukunqotshwa kwesono, indlela yokuphila, ukubekwa uphawu, imvula yamuva). Kuzofika isikhathi lapho la maqiniso eyoba sezindebeni zawo wonke umuntu, lapho abaningi beyobhekana nesinqumo futhi bathole imvula yamuva. Okuningi kuyoncika ekutheni uJesu uhlala kangakanani kithi.

Esikhathini sesikrini, i-The Chosen ingaba isibuko esiyisizayo esisivumela ukuthi sihlole ukuthi sizidela kangakanani emgwaqeni. Kunoma ikuphi, usikhuthaza ukuba sizikhathaze ngokwengeziwe ngemibhalo engcwele ephefumulelwe, isibuko sangempela. UJesu washo ngokucacile ngaye ngokwakhe: “Mina ngiyindlela, neqiniso, nokuphila. Akekho oza kuBaba ngaphandle kokuba eze ngami.” ( Johane 14,6:XNUMX ) Ungamanzi okuphila okufanele atholakale futhi athandwe.

Ukuzindla okujulile ngoJesu

Uchungechunge lwavula amehlo ami ezintweni ezimbalwa ezazingezintsha kimi, kodwa ububanzi bazo obuvalekile kimi ngokomzwelo: ukuthi bonke abafundi babebancane kangakanani. Yehluke kangakanani ngesimilo nesizinda. Indlela uJesu asebenza ngayo inethiwekhi. Yeka ukuthi kwakungenzeka kanjani ukushuba kwesimo. Okufanele ukuthi kwaqala lapho omunye esephulukisiwe kodwa omunye engakapholi. Kusho ukuthini lapho abantu abaningi ngokwengeziwe, ngisho noquqaba, belandela uJesu. Yeka ukuthi abafundi kwadingeka balahle imibono yabo kanzima kangakanani. Yeka indlela ayecindezeleke ngayo lapho eshushiswa iziphathimandla ezingokomoya nezezwe. Yeka ukuthi kwakudingeka bazizwe bengenakuzisiza futhi besengozini kangakanani ngoba uJesu wayengeyena uMesiya ophethe izikhali nokunye okuningi.

Yiqiniso, lapha ababhali besikrini basungula okuningi. Kodwa kwakungeke kucace futhi kuthembeke ngaphezu kwalokho eBhayibhelini. Manje ngifunda amavangeli ngelukuluku lokufuna ukwazi, ngoba asephila kakhulu kimina.

Amasizini amabili okuqala manje ayatholakala ngesiJalimane. Eyesithathu izophuma ekwindla. Eyesine iyaqoshwa njengamanje.

Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ukhetha ukubuka uchungechunge noma cha, kuzojabulisa ukubona ukuthi luwuthinta kanjani umphakathi nokuthi iyiphi indima oluzoyidlala entuthukweni yesikhathi sokuphela eseza.
