Imingcele 101Isampula

Okuhle ngaphakathi, Okubi ngaphandle

Imingcele isisiza ukuhlukanisa impahla yethu ukuze sikwazi ukuyinakekela. Isisiza ukuba siqaphe izinhliziyo zethu “ngako konke ukukhuthala” ( IzAga 4:23 NASB). Kudingeka sigcine izinto ezizosikhulisa ngaphakathi kocingo lwethu futhi sigcine izinto ezizosilimaza ngaphandle. Ngamafuphi, imingcele isisiza ukuthi sigcine okuhle ngaphakathi nokubi ngaphandle. Kuqapha ingcebo yethu ( NgokukaMathewu 6:19–20) ukuze abantu bangakuntshontshi. Igcina amagugu ngaphakathi nezingulube ngaphandle ( NgokukaMathathewu 7:6)

Kwesinye isikhathi siba nokubi ngaphakathi kanye nokuhle ngaphandle. Kulezi zimo, kudingeka sikwazi ukuvula imingcele yethu ukuze sivumele okuhle ngaphakathi nokubi kuphume. Ngamanye amazwi, izindonga zethu zidinga amasango kuzo. Ngokwesibonelo, uma ngithola ukuthi nginezinhlungu noma isono esithile ngaphakathi, kudingeka ngivule isifuba ngikhulume ngaso kuNkulunkulu nakwabanye, ukuze ngelapheke. Ukuvuma ubuhlungu nesono kuyasiza “ekukukhipheni” ukuze kungaqhubeki kungifaka ushevu ngaphakathi ( 1 KaJohane 1:9; EJakobe 5:16; NgokukaMarku 7:21–23)

Futhi lapho okuhle kungaphandle, sidinga ukuvula amasango ethu futhi "singene." uJesu ukhuluma ngalesi simangaliso “ekumamukeleni” yena neqiniso lakhe (IsAmbulo 3:20; NgokukaJohane 1:12). Abanye abantu banezinto ezinhle abangasipha zona, futhi kudingeka “sivule izinhliziyo zethu” kubo ( 2 KwabaseKorinte. 6:11–13). Ngokuvamile sizovala imingcele yethu ezintweni ezinhle kwabanye, sihlale esimweni sokuswela.

Ngamafuphi, imingcele ayizona izindonga. IBhayibheli alisho ukuthi kumele ‘sibiyelwe’ kwabanye; empeleni, lithi kufanele sibe “munye” nabo (NgokukaJohane 17:11). Kufanele sibe semphakathini nabo. Kodwa kuwo wonke umphakathi, wonke amalungu anendawo yawo kanye nempahla. Okubalulekile ukuthi imigqa yezakhiwo ingene ngaphakathi ngokwanele ukuze ivumele ukudlula futhi ibe namandla ngokwanele ukuze igweme ingozi.

Ngokuvamile, lapho abantu behlukunyezwa besakhula, bahlehlisa umsebenzi wemingcele futhi bagcine ababi phakathi kanye nokuhle ngaphandle. Lapho uMariya ekhula, wahlukunyezwa uyise. Akazange akhuthazwe ukwakha imingcele emihle. Ngenxa yalokho, wayezivala, ebambe izinhlungu ngaphakathi; wayengeke avule ukuveza ubuhlungu bakhe futhi abukhiphe emphefumulweni wakhe. Ubengeke futhi avuleleke ukuze avumele ukwesekwa kwangaphandle kungene ukuze amelaphe. Ngaphezu kwalokho, wayehlale evumela abanye ukuba “balahle” ubuhlungu obengeziwe emphefumulweni wakhe. Ngenxa yalokho, lapho ezofuna usizo, wayethwele izinhlungu eziningi, esahlukunyezwa, futhi “ebiyelwe ngodonga” ngenxa yokusekelwa okuvela ngaphandle.

Kwakumele ahlehlise izindlela ezazisebenza ngayo imingcele yakhe. Wayedinga uthango oluqinile ngokwanele ukuze avimbele okubi ngaphandle namasango alezo zingosi ukuze akhiphe okubi kakade okusemphefumulweni wakhe futhi angenise okuhle ayekudinga kakhulu.
