Uma usuqedile ukufunda le ncwadi, uma usuzibonile zonke izinyathelo zomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu osenyameni eNkathini Yombuso, uzozwa ukuthi amathemba eminyaka eminingi aseyabonakala. Uzozwa ukuthi kumanje kuphela lapho osubone khona uNkulunkulu ubuso nobuso; kumanje kuphela lapho ubheke khona ubuso bukaNkulunkulu, uzwe ukukhuluma kukaNkulunkulu, uthokozele ubuhlakani bomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, uzwe ngempela ukuthi unguNkulunkulu oyiqiniso futhi umninimandla onke. Nizozwa ukuthi senizuze izinto eziningi abantu benkathi edlule abangazange bakubona noma baba nakho. Ngalesi sikhathi, nizokwazi kahle ukuthi kuyini ukukholelwa kuNkulunkulu, nokuthi kuyini ukufuna inhliziyo kaNkulunkulu. Yebo, uma ninamathela emibonweni yakudala, nichithe noma niphike iqiniso likaNkulunkulu wenyama wesibili, kusho ukuthi nizosala ningenalutho ningatholanga lutho, ekugcineni nibe necala lokuphikisa uNkulunkulu. Labo abahlonipha iqiniso bazithobe emsebenzini kaNkulunkulu bazongena ngaphansi kwegama likaNkulunkulu osenyameni okwesibili—uSomandla. Bazokwazi ukwamukela ukuholwa nguNkulunkulu, futhi bazothola okuningi neqiniso eliphakeme bathole nokuphila okuyiqiniso kwabantu. Bazobona umbono abantu bakudala abangawubonanga: “Ngaphenduka ukuba ngibone izwi ebelikhuluma nami Kuthe lapho ngiphenduka, ngabona izinti zezibani eziyisikhombisa zegolide. Phakathi kwezinti zezibani eziyisikhombisa, kwakukhona ofana neNdodana yomuntu, wayembethe ingubo ekhawula ezinyaweni, ezibophe ngebhande legolide ezibeleni. Ikhanda lakhe nezinwele zakhe kumhlophe njengoboya bezimvu, lalimhlophe njengeqhwa, namehlo akhe enjengamalangabi omlilo; futhi izinyawo zakhe zifana nethusi elikhazimulayo sengathi zazishiswe esithandweni; nezwi lakhe linjengenhlokomo yamanzi amaningi. Futhi wayephethe izinkanyezi eziyisikhombisa esandleni sakhe sokunene, nasemlonyeni wakhe kwaphuma inkemba ebukhali esika nhlangothi zombili, nobuso bakhe bunjengelanga elikhanya ngamandla alo” (IsAmbulo 1:12-16). Lo mbono ubonakalisa isimo esiphelele sikaNkulunkulu, kanti futhi umbono onjengalona wesimo Sakhe esiphelele ubonakalisa umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uma eba yinyama ngalesi sikhathi. Ezikhukhuleni zokujezisa nokwahlulela, iNdodana yomuntu ibonakalisa isimo Sayo semvelo ngokukhuluma amazwi, ukuze bonke abemukela ukusola nokwahlulela Kwakhe babone ubuso beqiniso beNdodana yomuntu, ubuso obuyisibonakaliso esiyiqiniso sobuso beNdodana yomuntu obabonwa nguJohane. (Yebo, konke lokhu ngeke kubonakale kulabo abangawemukeli umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu eNkathini Yombuso. Ubuso beqiniso bukaNkulunkulu ngeke buchazeke kahle ngamagama omuntu, ngakho-ke uNkulunkulu usebenzisa ukubonakalisa isimo Sakhe semvelo ukukhombisa abantu ubuso Bakhe beqiniso. Okungukuthi bonke labo ababone isimo semvelo seNdodana yomuntu babubonile ubuso beqiniso beNdodana yomuntu, ngoba uNkulunkulu mkhulu kakhulu futhi ngeke achazeke ngamagama abantu. Uma abantu sebesibonile isinyathelo ngasinye somsebenzi kaNkulunkulu eNkathini Yombuso, bayobe sebeyazi incazelo eyiqiniso yamazwi uJohane awakhuluma eNdodaneni yomuntu phakathi kwezibani: “Ikhanda lakhe nezinwele zakhe kumhlophe njengoboya bezimvu, lalimhlophe njengeqhwa, namehlo akhe enjengamalangabi omlilo; futhi izinyawo zakhe zifana nethusi elikhazimulayo sengathi zazishiswe esithandweni; nezwi lakhe linjengenhlokomo yamanzi amaningi. Futhi wayephethe izinkanyezi eziyisikhombisa esandleni sakhe sokunene, nasemlonyeni wakhe kwaphuma inkemba ebukhali esika nhlangothi zombili, nobuso bakhe bunjengelanga elikhanya ngamandla alo.” Ngaleso sikhathi, nizokwazi ngaphandle kokungabaza ukuthi le nyama ejwayelekile ekhulume amazwi amaningi kangaka ngempela inguNkulunkulu osenyameni okwesibili. Futhi nizokwazi ukuthi nibusiseke kangakanani, nizizwe ninenhlanhla enkulu. Ngeke nifise ukwamukela lesi sibusiso?
Ingxenye yokuqala yale ncwadi ingamazwi kaMoya aya emabandleni. La mazwi amelela ukusuka ekugcineni kweNkathi Yomusa kuya ekuqaleni kweNkathi Yombuso, futhi awubufakazi obusobala beNdodana yomuntu obuya emabandleni. Futhi angukugcwaliseka kwamazwi esAmbulo athi “Onezindlebe makezwe okushiwo uMoya emabandleni.” Lokhu kungumsebenzi uNkulunkulu awuqala eNkathini Yombuso. Ingxenye yesibili yale ncwadi ingamazwi iNdodana yomuntu eyawakhuluma ngokuqondile ngemva kokuzembula ngokusemthethweni. Abandakanya izinhlobo eziningi zokuqukethwe okucebile kwamazwi nokushiwo okunjengesiprofetho, isambulo sezimfihlakalo, nendlela yokuphila. Kukhona okubikezela ikusasa lombuso, izambulo zezimfihlakalo zohlelo lukaNkulunkulu lokuphatha, ukuhlukaniswa kwendalo yomuntu, iziyalo nezexwayiso, ukwehlulela okunzima, amazwi enduduzo asuka enhliziyweni, ukukhuluma ngempilo, ukukhuluma ngokungena, nokunye nokunye. Kafushane nje, lokhu uNkulunkulu anakho, lokhu ayikho, nesimo sikaNkulunkulu konke kubonakaliswa emsebenzini Wakhe nasemazwini Akhe.

“Onezindlebe makezwe okushiwo uMoya emabandleni.” Seniwezwile manje amazwi oMoya oNgcwele? Amazwi kaNkulunkulu afikile phezu kwenu. Niyawezwa? UNkulunkulu wenza umsebenzi wezwi ezinsukwini zokugcina, kanti amagama anjengalawa oMoya oNgcwele, ngoba uNkulunkulu unguMoya oNgcwele futhi uyakwazi ukuba yinyama; ngakho-ke, amazwi oMoya oNgcwele, njengoba ekhulunyiwe esikhathini esedlule, angamazwi kaNkulunkulu osenyameni namuhla. Baningi abantu abangenangqondo abakholelwa ukuthi amazwi kaMoya oNgcwele kumelwe ehle emazulwini eze ezindlebeni zabantu. Noma ngubani ocabanga ngale ndlela akawazi umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu. Eqinisweni, amazwi akhulunywa nguMoya oNgcwele yilawo akhulunywa nguNkulunkulu esenyameni. UMoya oNgcwele awukhulumi ngqo nomuntu, kanti futhi noJehova akazange akhulume ngqo nabantu, ngisho naseNkathini Yomthetho. Ngeke kwenzeke ukuthi enze kanjalo ngale nkathi yanamuhla? Ukuze uNkulunkulu akhulume enze umsebenzi, kumele abe yinyama, kungenjalo umsebenzi Wakhe ngeke uyifeze inhloso Yakhe. Labo abaphika uNkulunkulu oyinyama yilabo abangawazi uMoya noma imigomo asebenza ngayo uNkulunkulu. Labo abakholelwa ukuthi manje yinkathi yoMoya oNgcwele kodwa bengawemukeli umsebenzi Wakhe omusha yilabo abaphila ngokholo olungacacile. Abantu abanjena ngeke bawuthole umsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele. Labo abafisa kuphela ukuthi uMoya oNgcwele ukhulume ngqo futhi wenze umsebenzi Wakhe, kodwa bengawemukeli amazwi noma umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu osenyameni, ngeke bakwazi ukungena enkathini entsha noma bathole insindiso ephelele kuNkulunkulu!

Umuntu ukholelwa ukuthi ngemva kokubethelwa novuko, uJesu wabuyela ezulwini ngefu elimhlophe, wabe esethola indawo Yakhe ngakwesokunene Sophezu Konke. Ngokufanayo, umuntu ucabanga ukuthi uJesu uzophinde ehle ngefu elimhlophe (leli fu libhekisela efwini lelo uJesu anyuka ngalo lapho ebuyela ezulwini), phakathi kwalabo abebelokhu bemlinde ngokulangazela iminyaka eyizinkulungwane nokuthi uzoba nesithombe nezembatho zamaJuda. Ngemva kokuvela kubantu, uyobanika ukudla futhi enze amanzi okuphila ukuba agobhoze phambi kwabo futhi aphile nabantu, egcwele umusa nothando, ephila futhi engokoqobo. Njalo njalo. Nokho uJesu uMsindisi akazange akwenze lokhu; wenza okuphambene nalokho umuntu ayekucabanga. Akazange afike kulabo abebelokhu belinde ukubuya Kwakhe futhi akazange abonakale kubo bonke abantu njengoba ayegibele ifu elimhlophe. Usefikile, kodwa abantu abamazi, futhi bayaqhubeka bengakunaki ukufika Kwakhe. Abantu bamane bamlinda ngokungenasidingo futhi bengaboni ukuthi usehlile ngefu elimhlophe (ifu eliwuMoya Wakhe, amazwi Akhe kanye nesimo semvelo Yakhe yonke nakho konke ayikho), manje usephakathi kweqembu labantu abangabanqobi azobakha phakathi nezinsuku zokugcina.

Umsebenzi wamanje wokunqoba umsebenzi ohloselwe ukucacisa ukuthi isiphetho somuntu siyoba yini. Kungani ngithi ukusola nokwahlulela kwanamuhla kuyisahlulelo esiphambi kwesihlalo esikhulu sobukhosi sezinsuku zokugcina? Anikuboni lokhu? Kungani umsebenzi wokunqoba uyisigaba sokugcina? Awukhona yini ukuvezwa kwesigaba ngasinye umuntu ayophelela kuso? Awukhona yini ukuvumela wonke umuntu, enkambweni yomsebenzi wokunqoba wokusola nokwahlulela, ukuvezwa kobunjalo bangempela kanye nokuhlelwa ngokwezinhlobo kamuva? Kunokuthi lokhu ukunqoba isintu, kungaba ngcono ukuthi lokhu kuveza ukuthi isigaba ngasinye somuntu siyophelelaphi. Lokho kusho ukuthi, lokhu kuwukwahlulela izono zabo nokuveza izigaba ezihlukahlukene zabantu, kunqunywe ngaleyo ndlela ukuthi babi noma balungile. Ngemva komsebenzi wokunqoba kulandela umsebenzi wokuklomelisa abalungile nokujezisa ababi: Abantu abalalela ngokugcwele, okusho ukuthi abanqotshwe ngokugcwele, bayobekwa esigabeni esilandelayo sokusakaza umsebenzi endaweni yonke; abanganqotshiwe bayobekwa ebumnyameni futhi bayobhekana nenhlekelele. Ngakho abantu bayohlukaniswa ngokohlobo lwabo, abenzi bokubi bayokwenziwa iqembu lezikhohlakali, ngeke baphinde bayibone inhlamvu yelanga, nabenzi bokuhle bayokwenziwa iqembu labalungile, ukuze bathole ukukhanya futhi baphile phakade ekukhanyeni. Ukuphela kwazo zonke izinto sekuseduze, ukuphela komuntu kucaciswe kwakhanya bha emehlweni akhe, futhi zonke izinto ziyobekwa ngezinhlobo zazo. Ngakho abantu bangakwazi kanjani ukuphunyuka kulokhu? Ukwembulwa kokuphela kwesigaba ngasinye somuntu kuphela lapho ukuphela kwazo zonke izinto sekuseduze, futhi kuphela phakathi nomsebenzi wokunqoba indawo yonke (okubandakanya wonke umsebenzi wokunqoba oqala ngomsebenzi wamanje). Lokhu kwembulwa kokuphela kwaso sonke isintu kwenziwa phambi kwesihlalo sokwahlulela, ngendlela yokusola, nangendlela yomsebenzi wokunqoba wezinsuku zokugcina.

UNkulunkulu wadala abantu futhi wababeka emhlabeni, laba aye wabahola kwaze kwaba manje. Wabe esesindisa abantu waba njengomnikelo wesono kubantu. Ekugcineni, kusafanele anqobe isintu, alondoloze sonke isintu futhi asibuyisele esimweni saso sasekuqaleni. Lona umsebenzi uNkulunkulu abelokhu ewenza kusukela ekuqaleni kuze kube sekugcineni—wokumbuyisela esimweni sakhe ayeyiso ekuqaleni. Uyomisa umbuso Wakhe futhi abuyise izinto ezifana nesimo sasekuqaleni somuntu, okusho ukuthi uyovuselela igunya emhlabeni nakuyo yonke indalo. Umuntu walahlekelwa inhliziyo eyesaba uNkulunkulu ngemva kokonakaliswa uSathane, futhi walahlekelwa umsebenzi izidalwa zikaNkulunkulu okufanele zibe nawo, waba isitha esingamlaleli uNkulunkulu. Umuntu waphila ngaphansi kokubusa kukaSathane futhi walandela imiyalo kaSathane; ngakho uNkulunkulu wayengenayo indlela yokusebenza phakathi kwezidalwa Zakhe, futhi akakwazanga ukwenza ukuba izidalwa Zakhe zimesabe. Umuntu wadalwa uNkulunkulu, wakhonza uNkulunkulu, kodwa umuntu waqala ukumjikela uNkulunkulu wakhonza uSathane. USathane waba isithixo senhliziyo yomuntu. Ngakho uNkulunkulu walahlekelwa indawo Yakhe enhliziyweni yomuntu, okuwukuthi walahlekelwa incazelo yendalo kaNkulunkulu yabantu, manje ukuze abuyise ayekuhlosile ngendalo Yakhe kumele umuntu ambuyisele esimweni ayeyiso ekuqaleni bese exosha umuntu onesimo esikhohlakele. Ukuze abuyise umuntu kuSathane, kumele asindise umuntu esonweni. Kungale ndlela kuphela angabuyisa ngayo kancane kancane isimo sasekuqaleni somuntu futhi abuyise umsebenzi wasekuqaleni womuntu, futhi ekugcineni uNkulunkulu abuyise umbuso Wakhe. Ukubhujiswa kwabantwana bokungalaleli nakho kuzokwenziwa ukuze umuntu amkhonze kangcono uNkulunkulu futhi aphile kangcono emhlabeni. Njengoba uNkulunkulu adala umuntu, kufanele enze umuntu amkhonze; njengoba uNkulunkulu efisa ukubuyisa umsebenzi wasekuqaleni womuntu, lokho uzokwenza ngokuphelele, ngaphandle kwenkohlakalo. Ukubuyisa igunya Lakhe kusho ukwenza ukuthi umuntu amkhonze futhi amlalele; kusho ukuthi kufanele enze umuntu aphile ngenxa Yakhe futhi ashabalalise izitha Zakhe ngenxa yegunya Lakhe; kusho ukuthi uzokwenza ukuthi yonke ingxenye yakhe yokugcina iqhubeke phakathi kwabantu futhi ngaphandle kokuphikiswa umuntu. Umbuso afisa ukuwumisa embusweni Wakhe. Isintu asifisayo yilesi esimkhonzayo, esimlalela ngokuphelele futhi esinenkazimulo Yakhe. Uma engabasindisi abantu abonakalisiwe, okushiwo indalo Yakhe kuyophenduka ize; ngeke esaba nalo igunya kubantu, futhi umbuso Wakhe ngeke ukwazi ukuba khona emhlabeni. Uma engazibhubhisi lezo zitha ezingamlaleli, ngeke akwazi ukuthola inkazimulo Yakhe egcwele, futhi ngeke akwazi ukumisa umbuso phezu komhlaba. Lezi izimpawu zokuqedwa komsebenzi Wakhe nezimpawu zokufezwa kwezinto Zakhe ezinkulu: ukubhubhisa ngokuphelele abantu abangamlaleli; nokuletha ekuphumuleni labo abenziwe baphelela. Lapho abantu bebuyiselwa esimweni ababeyiso kuqala, lapho abantu bengaqeda imisebenzi yabo, bagcine indawo yabo futhi balalele wonke amalungiselelo kaNkulunkulu, uNkulunkulu uyobe eseqoqe iqembu labantu abamkhonzayo emhlabeni, futhi uyomisa nombuso emhlabeni, umbuso ozokhonza Yena. Uyoba nokunqoba kwaphakade emhlabeni, futhi labo abamelene naye bayoshabalala kuze kube phakade. Lokhu kuyobuyisa injongo Yakhe yasekuqaleni ngokudala zonke izinto; futhi kuyobuyisa negunya Lakhe phezu komhlaba, igunya Lakhe phakathi kwazo zonke izinto negunya lakhe phakathi kwezitha Zakhe. Lolu uphawu lokunqoba Kwakhe okuphelele. Ngaphezu kwalokho, abantu bayongena ekuphumuleni nasekuphileni okulandela umgudu ofanele. UNkulunkulu uyophinde angene ekuphumuleni kwaphakade kanye nabantu, angene ekuphileni okuphakade okungokukaNkulunkulu nomuntu. Ukungcola nokungalaleli kwabantu emhlabeni kuzonyamalala, njengoba kuzoba njalo nangokukhala emhlabeni. Bonke abasemhlabeni abamelana noNkulunkulu ngeke babe khona. UNkulunkulu nabantu abasindisile kuphela okufanele basale; indalo Yakhe kuphela okufanele isale.

Amazwi kaNkulunkulu azosabalalela emakhaya angenakubalwa, azokwaziwa yibo bonke, futhi kungaleso sikhathi kuphela lapho amazwi Akhe ezosabalala emhlabeni wonke. Okungukuthi, uma umsebenzi Wakhe kumele usabalale kuwo wonke umhlaba, amazwi Akhe kumele asatshalaliswe. Osukwini lwenkazimulo kaNkulunkulu, amazwi Akhe azobonisa amandla negunya lawo. Onke amazwi Akhe kusukela ngesikhathi esingakhumbuleki kuze kube namuhla azofezeka futhi azogcwaliseka. Ngale ndlela, inkazimulo izoya kuNkulunkulu emhlabeni—okusho ukuthi, amazwi Akhe azobusa emhlabeni. Bonke ababi bazosolwa amazwi asemlonyeni kaNkulunkulu, bonke abalungile bazobusiswa amazwi omlomo Wakhe, futhi bonke bazokwakhiwa futhi bapheleliswe amazwi omlomo Wakhe. Angeke abonise noma yiziphi izimpawu noma izimangaliso; konke kuzofezwa amazwi Akhe, futhi amazwi Akhe azokhiqiza amaqiniso. Wonke umuntu emhlabeni uzohalalisela amazwi kaNkulunkulu, kungakhathaleki ukuthi badala noma bayizingane, owesilisa, owesifazane, omdala, omncane, bonke abantu bazozithoba ngaphansi kwamazwi kaNkulunkulu. Amazwi kaNkulunkulu azobonakala enyameni, futhi azobonakala ngokucacile futhi ephila kubantu emhlabeni. UNkulunkulu uze emhlabeni ikakhulukazi ukuze afeze iqiniso lokuthi “uLizwi uba yinyama,” okusho ukuthi, uze ukuze amazwi Akhe azonikezwa esenyameni (hhayi njengasesikhathini sikaMose eTestamenteni Elidala, lapho uNkulunkulu ayekhuluma ngokuqondile esesibhakabhakeni). Ngemva kwalokho ngalinye lamazwi Akhe lizogcwaliseka phakathi neNkathi Yombuso Weminyaka Eyinkulungwane, azoba amaqiniso asobala emehlweni abantu, futhi abantu bazowabona ngamehlo abo ngaphandle kokungabaza. Lena yincazelo yangempela yokuba sesimweni somuntu kukaNkulunkulu. Okungukuthi, umsebenzi kaMoya ufezwa ngenyama, nangamazwi. Lena incazelo enembayo yokuthi “uLizwi waba yinyama” nethi “Ukubonakala kukaLizwi enyameni.” UNkulunkulu kuphela ongakhuluma intando kaMoya, futhi uNkulunkulu osenyameni kuphela ongakhulumela uMoya; amazwi kaNkulunkulu enziwe acaca ekubeni sesimweni somuntu kukaNkulunkulu, futhi wonke umuntu uqondiswa yiwo. Akekho okhululiwe, bonke bakhona ngaphakathi kwalo mngcele. Yingala mazwi kuphela lapho abantu bengakwazi khona; labo abangazuzi ngale ndlela bayaziphuphela nje uma becabanga ukuthi bangathola amazwi avela ezulwini. Lelo gunya libonakaliswe uNkulunkulu ekuguqulweni abe yinyama: ukwenza ukuba bonke bakholwe. Ngisho kuthiwa ompetha abaqeqeshiwe noma abefundisi bezinkolo angeke bakwazi ukukhuluma la mazwi. Kumele bazithobe kuwo, futhi akekho ongakwazi ukuqalisa kabusha. UNkulunkulu uzosebenzisa amazwi ukuze anqobe umhlaba wonke. Uzokwenza lokhu hhayi ngokuguqulelwa enyameni, kodwa ngokusebenzisa amazwi avela umlonyeni kaNkulunkulu obe yinyama ukuze anqobe bonke abantu emhlabeni wonke; yilokhu kuphela okunguLizwi eba yinyama, futhi yilokhu kuphela ukubonakala kukaLizwi enyameni. Mhlawumbe, kubantu, kubonakala sengathi uNkulunkulu akakenzi msebenzi ongako—kodwa uNkulunkulu kufanele akhlume nje amazwi Akhe kubantu ukuze bakholwe ngokuphelele, futhi kubo ukuze bathuthumele. Ngaphandle kwamaqiniso abantu bayamemeza futhi bakhamuluke; ngamazwi kaNkulunkulu, bayathula. UNkulunkulu nakanjani uzolifeza leli qiniso, ngoba kuyicebo Lakhe lesikhathi eside: ukufeza ukufika kukaLizwi emhlabeni. Eqinisweni, asikho isidingo sokuba ngichaze—ukufika koMbuso Weminyaka Eyinkungwane emhlabeni kuwukufika kwamazwi kaNkulunkulu emhlabeni. Ukwehla kweJerusalema elisha livela ezulwini kuwukufika kwamazwi kaNkulunkulu ukuba aphile phakathi kwabantu, ukuze aphelekezele konke okwenziwa umuntu. Leli wuhlelo oluhlelwe uNkulunkulu: amazwi Akhe azovela emhlabeni iminyaka eyinkulungwane, futhi azobonisa zonke izenzo Zakhe, futhi aqedele wonke umsebenzi Wakhe emhlabeni, emva kwakho okuyophela lesi sigaba sesintu.
