Lapho izinto ezingokoqobo ezibuhlungu zingena emizimbeni yethu, noma emizimbeni yabantu esibathandayo, zishintsha ukucabanga kwethu unomphela. 

UPetru wazibonela mathupha lokhu, ikakhulukazi njengoba kuhlobene nemicabango yakhe ngokuhlupheka. KuMathewu 16, uJesu wabikezela ukuhlupheka nokufa Kwakhe.

Ubona izinto ngeso lomuntu, hhayi ngokukaNkulunkulu.” ( NgokukaMathewu 16:23) Ewu. Kamuva, lapho uPetru ebuka uJesu ehlupheka ngokubethelwa esiphambanweni, wamphika, esabela ukuphila kwakhe. Nokho, okuthile ngalezi zenzakalo ezibuhlungu kwamshintsha uPetru. 

Izehlakalo ezibuhlungu zivame ukuholela ekuthandeni okunamandla.

Lapho uPetru ebhala ngokuhlupheka ku-1 Petru 4:1, wabhala njengomuntu onombono omusha ngokuhlupheka. Lapho echaza ukuhlupheka, wasebenzisa igama elifanayo elithi, páscho, uJesu alisebenzisa kuye kuMathewu 16. UPetru wasebenzisa leli gama kuyo yoonke eka-1 kaPetru, futhi yilapho sithola khona igama lanamuhla elithi “intshiseko. ” Páscho yingakho sibiza icala likaJesu, ukubethelwa, nokuvuswa kwakhe njengoKuhlubuka. Izigigaba ezibuhlungu zivame ukuholela entshisekweni enamandla.

Ubuhlungu bukaJesu bomzimba,i páscho Yakhe, kufanele kube isisekelo sothando lwethu. Ukufa nokuvuka kukaJesu kunamandla amakhulu okuguqula ukucabanga kwethu, bese kuguqula ukuziphatha kwethu. Kungakho uPetru eqala isahluko sesine kanje, “Ngakho-ke, njengokuba uKristu wahlupheka emzimbeni wakhe, hlomani nani-ke isimo sengqondo esifanayo, ngokuba lowo ohluphekayo esemzimbeni ufela isono. ( 1 kuPetru 4:1)

Kwaqedwa ngesono. Yilokhu uthando lukaJesu olungakwenza. Yisiphi isono empilweni yakho olungele ukuqeda ngaso? Yikuphi ukungabi nabulungiswa olungele ukulwa nakho?

Njengoba ufunda ku-1 Petru isahluko 4 namuhla, cela uNkulunkulu ukuthi akubonise ukuthi ubuhlungu bukaJesu bomzimba kanye nentshiseko kungashintsha kanjani ukucabanga kwakho, kukunike ukuzimisela ukusiqeda isono. Futhi, cela uNkulunkulu akubonise indlela yokuthandazela abantu emhlabeni wonke abashushiswa ngokomzimba nangokomzwelo ngenxa yokholo lwabo. Okokugcina, uma uke washushiswa ngenxa yokholo lwakho, yazi ukuthi unokuhlanganyela i-páscho noJesu.
