Ungaluqinisa kanjani Ukholo LwakhoIsampula

Ukuphila Ngokwethembeka

Kuyini ukukholwa? Ukholo luwukwethemba okusekelwe ebufakazini obuholela ekulaleleni. 

Singaluqinisa kanjani ukholo lwethu? 

1. Yakha ukwethemba kwakho. Ubudlelwano obuqinile abukheki ngephutha. Kwakhiwe ngamabomu. Uma kuphele izinyanga ngaphandle kokukhuluma nomngani wakho omkhulu, ibanga lizoqala ukuchaza lobo budlelwano. Uma kuphele izinyanga ungakhulumanga noNkulunkulu, ibanga lizoqala ukubuchaza lobo budlelwane. Thatha isikhathi sokudala indawo kaNkulunkulu. UNkulunkulu uhlangana nathi emkhathini esiwenzayo. Thatha imizuzu eyi-10 yosuku lwakho ukuze ube noNkulunkulu. Qala ngemizuzu embalwa yomthandazo othule. Bese, uvula iBhayibheli lakho futhi ufunde isahluko noma ezimbili zomBhalo. Bhala phansi kujenali noma inothi lokho uNkulunkulu akubonisa kona kuleyo ndima yoMbhalo. Okokugcina, cela uNkulunkulu abe nawe futhi akuhole kulo lonke lolu suku. Ekuqaleni, lokhu kungase kuzwakale kuwumsebenzi onzima, kodwa ngokuhamba kwesikhathi uzothola ukuthi lesi sikhathi esihlosiwe singaba nenjongo enkulu. 

2. Tadisha ubufakazi. Uma othile ebengakubuza ukuthi kungani ukholelwa ukuthi ubuKristu buyiqiniso, ungamtshelani? Ungakwazi yini ukukhomba ubufakazi bomlando, isayensi, ifilosofi, noma osudlule kukho wena? Ukwazi ukuthi kungani sikholelwa esikukholelwayo kuyindlela enamandla ngempela yokwakha ukholo lwethu. Esikhundleni sokumane sifise ukuthi lezi zinto beziyiqiniso, singaba nesibindi esisekelwe ebufakazini. Qala ngokucabanga ngezindlela uNkulunkulu azibonakalise ngayo empilweni yakho. Bese ubuza abantu osondelene nabo mayelana nendlela uNkulunkulu abonakale ngayo ezimpilweni zabo. Vumela lezi zikhathi nezindaba zikukhuthaze ukuthi uthembele kuNkulunkulu kakhulu. Ngemuva kwalokho, qala ukubheka imisebenzi yabaxolisi abakhulu abafana noWilliam Lane Craig, C.S. Lewis, noMike Licona. Noma, hlola Uhlelo lwethu Lokushintsha: Ingabe UNkulunkulu Ukhona?  ukuze uthole isingeniso kwezinye izimpikiswano ezihlukahlukene ngobukhona bukaNkulunkulu. 

3. Ziqeqeshe ngokulalela. Ukukholelwa kuNkulunkulu akusenzi sibe amaKristu. Ukulandela uJesu kuyasenza. Lapho uJesu eqala inkonzo Yakhe futhi ebiza abafundi Bakhe, akazange abatshele ukuthi babe nezimpendulo ezifanele. Wathi kubo: “Wozani ningilandele.” Ukholo luhlala luyinto esebenzayo. Kuwukwethenjwa okusekelwe ebufakazini obuholela ekulaleleni. Lapho sibeka ithemba lethu ezenzweni, sibona indlela uNkulunkulu anokwethembeka ngayo ngempela. Lapho senza ukholo, siqala ukuzwa ukwethembeka kukaNkulunkulu. UJesu wafundisa, Uma nibambelela emfundisweni yami, ningabafundi bami isibili. Khona-ke niyolazi iqiniso, futhi iqiniso liyonikhulula” ( NgokukaJohane 8:31-32). Kusho ukuthini “ukubambelela esifundisweni saKhe”? Kusho ukwenza lokho Akushoyo. Ukulalela. Lapho silalela izimfundiso zikaJesu, siyolazi futhi silibone iqiniso, futhi iqiniso liyosikhulula. Uma ngempela ufuna ukwazi ukuthi ukulandela uJesu kufanelekile yini, sebenzisa amazwi Akhe. Njengoba wenza, uzothola ukuthi impilo yokusebenzela uJesu ingcono kakhulu kunokusebenzela noma ubani nanoma yini enye. 

Ngaphandle kokholo akwenzeki ukujabulisa uNkulunkulu. Ubizwe nguNkulunkulu ukuba uphile “ngokukholwa.” Ukwethemba ukuthi uNkulunkulu ungokoqobo, ukuthi muhle, uyakukhathalela, futhi ufuna ukuhlanganyela nawe: ukwethembana okusekelwe ebufakazini futhi kuholela ekulaleleni.
