UNkulunkulu uyakubona ukuPhenduka Kweqiniso Ekujuleni Kwezinhliziyo zabantu baseNineve

UMahluko Omkhulu phakathi Kokuphendula kwabantu baseNineve nabaseSodoma Esixwayisweni sikaNkulunkulu uJehova

Kuchaza ukuthini ukuchithwa? Ngendlela eyayivamile, kuchaza ukuthi ukunyamalala. Kodwa kanjani? Ubani owayengenza umuzi wonke unyamalale? Kungeke kwenzeke ukuba umuntu enze into enjalo, empeleni. Laba bantu babengezona iziwula; bathi bangasizwa lesi simemezelo, baqonda. Bazi ukuthi sasivele kuNkulunkulu; babazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu wabe ezokwenza umsebenzi Wakhe; bazi ukuthi ukukhohlakala kwabo kwase kuvuse ulaka lukaNkulunkulu uJehova futhi kwaletha intukuthelo Yakhe phezu kwabo, ngendlela yokuthi maduzane nje, base bezobhujiswa kanye nomuzi wabo.

Inkohlakalo YeSodoma Okuthukuthelisayo Kumuntu, Okuvusa Ulaka KuNkulunkulu

Okokuqala, ake sibheke izindima eziningi zemiBhalo ezichaza “Ukubhubhiswa kweSodoma nguNkulunkulu.”

(UGenesise 19:1-11) Kwase kufika izingelosi ezimbili eSodoma sekuhwalele; uLoti yena wayehleli esangweni laseSodoma: wathi uLoti ezibona wasukuma ukuba azihlangabeze; wayesekhothama emhlabathini ubuso bakhe bubheke phansi; futhi wathi, bhekani manje, makhosi ami, ake nichezuke, ningene endlini yenceku yenu, nichithe ubusuku bonke, futhi nihlanze izinyawo zenu, bese nivuka ekuseni, nihambe izindlela zenu.

Ngosuku Lwesithathu, Amazwi KaNkulunkulu Adala Umhlaba Nezilwandle, Negunya LikaNkulunkulu Lenza Umhlaba Uchichime Ngokuphila

Okulandelayo masifunde umusho wokuqala kuGenesise 1:9-11: “Futhi uNkulunkulu wathi, Amanzi angaphansi kwezulu mawaqoqeke ndawonye, bese kubonakala umhlabathi owomileyo.” Iziphi izinguquko ezenzeka emuva kokuthi uNkulunkulu evele wathi, “Amanzi aphansi kwezulu mawaqoqeke ndawonye, bese kubonakala umhlabathi owomileyo”? Futhi yini eyabe ikhona kule ndawo ngaphandle kokukhanya nomkhathi? EmiBhalweni, kubhalwe ukuthi: “UNkulunkulu wase ebiza umhlabathi owomileyo ngokuthi uMhlaba, nokuqoqeleka kwamanzi ndawonye wawabiza ngokuthi uLwandle: futhi uNkulunkulu wabona ukuthi kuhle.”

Iziphetho Zezinhlobo Ezahlekene Zabantu Nesithembiso SikaNkulunkulu Kumuntu

   

 Amazwi KaNkulunkulu Abalulekile:

Umsebenzi Wami uhlala iminyaka eyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha, futhi ngiyethembisa ukuthi ukulawula komubi esintwini sisonke nakho kuyoba ngokweminyaka eyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha. Ngakho, siphelile isikhathi. Angisaqhubeki futhi angisadebeseli manje: Ngezinsuku zokugcina ngizomnqoba uSathane, ngizobuyisela inkazimulo Yami, futhi ngizolanda imiphefumulo Yami emhlabeni ukuze le miphefumulo ekhathazekile ephunyuke olwandle lokuhlupheka, futhi lokhu kuzophothula umsebenzi Wami uwonke emhlabeni.

Lapho kuya kuNkulunkulu, kuthini ukuqonda kwakho?

Abantu sebekholwe kuNkulunkulu isikhathi eside, nokho abaningi kubo abaliqondi igama elithi “Nkulunkulu.” Bayalandela nje ngokudideka. Abaqondi ukuthi kungani umuntu kumele akholwe kuNkulunkulu noma ukuthi ngempela uyini uNkulunkulu. Uma abantu bazi ukukholwa nokulandela uNkulunkulu kuphela, kodwa bengazi ukuthi uyini uNkulunkulu, futhi bengamqondi uNkulunkulu, ngabe lokhu akusilo yini ihlaya elikhulu emhlabeni? 

Imiyalelo Eyishumi Yokuphatha Okufanele Ilalelwe Abantu Abakhethiweyo bakaNkulunkulu ENkathini Yombuso

1. Umuntu akumele azenze mkhulu, noma aziphakamise. Kumele akhonze futhi aphakamise uNkulunkulu.

Inkinga Enkulu: Ukukhaphela (1)

Umsebenzi Wami usuzophela. Iminyaka eminingi esiyichithe sindawonye isibe inkumbulo engabekezeleleki yenkathi edlule. Ngiye ngaphindaphinda amazwi Ami futhi angiyekanga ukuthuthuka emsebenzini Wami omusha. Empeleni, iseluleko Sami siyisakhi esidingekayo engxenyeni ngayinye yomsebenzi engiwenzayo. Ngaphandle kweseluleko Sami, nonke benizonhlanhlatha futhi nilahlekelwe kakhulu.

Inhloso Yokwengamela Umuntu

  Uma abantu bengaqonda ngokugcwele indlela elungile yempilo yomuntu kanjalo nenhloso kaNkulunkulu yokulawula umuntu, ngeke baphathe ikusasa labo ngabanye ngabanye kanye nemigomo abayiphokophelele njengomcebo ezinhliziyweni zabo. Ngeke besafisa ukukhonza abazali babo abangcole ngaphezu kwezingulube nezinja. Ingabe ikusasa nezimpokophelo zomuntu akufani ncamashi nosuku lwamanje olubizwa ngokuthi "abazali" bakaPetru? Kuyefana nje nenyama negazi lomuntu. Ingabe impokophelo, ikusasa lenyama kuyoba ukubona uNkulunkulu ngenkathi kusaphila, noma ukuba umphefumulo uhlangane noNkulunkulu emva kokufa?

Hlobo luni lwabantu abalindele wena ukuba ubeluse?

2. Kungani umhlaba wezenkolo umphikile uKrestu, futhi wamlahla ngaleyo ndlela wazithela ngeziqalekiso zikaNkulunkulu?

Izikhombo Zamavesi EBhayibheli:

   “Yizwani omunye umfanekiso: Kwakunomninindlu othile, owatshala isivini, futhi wasibiyela ngothango, futhi wemba khona isikhamo, wase akha isiqongo sokulinda, wabe esesiqashisa kubalimi, wase eya ezweni elikude: Futhi lapho isikhathi sezithelo sesisondela, wathuma izinceku zakhe kubalimi, ukuba zithathe izithelo zaso.Futhi abalimi bazibamba izinceku zakhe, futhi bashaya enye, kanti enye bayibulala, futhienye bayikhanda ngamatshe. Waphinda, wathumela ezinye izinceku eziningi kunezokuqala: futhi benza okufanayo nakuzo. Kodwa ekugcineni wathumela indodana yakhe, ethi, Bayakuyihlonipha indodana yami. Kodwa lapho abalimi bebona indodana, bakhuluma bodwa bethi, Lo uyindlalifa; wozani siyibulale, futhi sidle ifa layo. Base beyibamba,futhi bayiphonsa ngaphandle kwesivini, futhi bayibulala” (UMathewu 21:33-39).

Isahluko 8

Uma uNkulunkulu ekhuluma izwi Lakhe ngokweso likaMoya, iphimbo Lakhe liqondiswa kuso sonke isintu.
