Ezinye izibaya zezimvu...
Kunabantu abasenyakatho yezigidi eziyizinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa emhlabeni. UbuKrestu yinkolo enkulu kunazo zonke, enabantu abangaphezu kwezigidigidi ezi-2... okushiya izigidigidi ezi-5 abangase bazibuze ukuthi amaKristu acabanga ukuthi kuzokwenzekani kwabangewona amaKristu!
EVangelini likaJohane, kunezindawo eziyisikhombisa lapho uJesu azifanisa khona nento engokomfanekiso, ngezinye izikhathi ebizwa ngokuthi amazwi angu-7 athi “Nginguye”. Ezinye zazo zingazwakala zikhethekile. Ake sibheke imibhalo:
Nazi izitatimende ezintathu eziyizithembiso ezicacile kubantu abangamaKristu angempela - okungukuthi, abakholelwa kukho, futhi baphila ngakho. Ababandakanyi muntu, kodwa ngokuqinisekile kukhona okushiwo ukuthi lena INDLELA:
“Khona-ke uJesu waphinda wakhuluma kubo, wathi: ‘Mina ngiwukukhanya kwezwe; ongilandelayo kasoze ahamba ebumnyameni, kodwa woba nokukhanya kokuphila. (Johane 8:12)
“Mina ngiyisango lezimvu... Mina ngiyisango: uma umuntu engena ngami, uyakusindiswa, futhi uyakungena aphume, futhi athole idlelo.” (Johane 10:7, 9)
“Mina ngingukuvuka nokuphila. okholwa yimi, noma efa, wophila.” (Johane 11:25)
Okulandelayo, nazi ezinye izitatimende ezimbili ezenza isithembiso esifanayo, kodwa futhi ezishoyo ukuthi uma ungamamukeli uJesu, ngeke usindiswe:
“UJesu wathi kuye: “Mina ngiyindlela, neqiniso, nokuphila; akekho oza kuBaba ngaphandle kwaMi.” (Johane 14:6)
“Mina ngingumvini weqiniso, noBaba ungumlimi... Hlalani kimi, nami kini. Njengalokhu igatsha lingethele isithelo ngokwalo, ngaphandle kokuthi lihlale emvinini; anisakwazi, uma ningahlali kimi. Mina ngingumvini, nina ningamagatsha; ohlala kimi, nami kuye, lowo uthela izithelo eziningi; ngokuba ngaphandle kwami ningenze lutho. Uma umuntu engahlali kimi, ulahlwa ngaphandle njengegatsha, abune; abantu bayawabutha, bawaphonse emlilweni, ashiswe. (Johane 15:1, 4, 5, 9)
Ngaphambilini evangelini likaJohane, kunesitatimende sesi-6 sokuthi "Nginguye", noma izitatimende ezibekwe esidlekeni. Banezici ezimbili ezikhethekile. Nansi enye yamabhangqa:
“UJesu wathi kubo: “Mina ngiyisinkwa sokuphila; ozayo kimi kasoze alamba, nokholwa yimi kasoze oma. Futhi ngaphezu kwalokho, "Akakho ongeza kimi ngaphandle kokuba uBaba ongithumileyo emdonsa, futhi mina ngizomvusa ngosuku lokugcina." (Johane 6:35, 44).
Kunombono omusha lapha. “UBaba” udonsela abantu kuJesu. Lokhu kuyinkomba yokungena okuvela kuNkulunkulu ezingqondweni zethu, okusikhipha exhaphozini lethu. Lokhu “kudonsa” kusenza sivule iZwi, “size kuJesu”, sifune isiqondiso sikamoya.
Kulendaba efanayo, kuJohane 6, uJesu naye usho lokhu,
“Mina ngiyisinkwa esiphilayo esehla ezulwini; uma umuntu edla lesi sinkwa, uyakuphila phakade; ..’ Khona-ke uJesu wathi kubo: ‘Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini, Ngaphandle kokuthi nidle inyama yeNdodana yomuntu, niphuze igazi layo, aninakuphila kini.Johane 6:35, 41, 48, 51)
Lokhu kwakuyimfundiso enzima. Kubonakala sengathi abantu abaningi babengaqondi ukuthi uJesu wayengakhulumi ngenyama negazi langempela. Emavesini 60 no 66, lithi,
“Ngakho abaningi kubafundi bakhe bekuzwa lokho bathi: “Lilukhuni leli zwi; ngubani ongalizwa na?... Kusukela ngaleso sikhathi abaningi kubafundi bakhe babuyela emuva, ababe besahamba naye.Johane 6:60, 66)
Kube nengxabano ende ebandleni lamaKrestu mayelana nencazelo yalokhu. Ingabe uJesu wayekhuluma ngegazi lakhe langempela? Inyama yakhe yangempela? Ingabe amaKristu kwakufanele adle abantu? Cha. Emcabangweni Omusha WobuKristu, sihlala sibheka incazelo yangaphakathi yamagama ngomqondo ongokoqobo. Isinkwa nenyama kubhekisela kokuhle. Igazi newayini kubhekisela eqinisweni. Kudingeka sizame ukuba abalungile, futhi sizame ukufunda iqiniso. UJesu wayesibonisa ukuthi kubukeka kanjani okuhle, futhi esifundisa imibono yeqiniso.
Nali isiqephu esivela komunye wemisebenzi ye-Swedenborg:
Njengoba zonke izinto ezingokomoya nezisezulwini zihlobana kuphela nobuhle neqiniso, kulandela ukuthi inyama isho isenzo esihle esihlobene nokuthakazelelwa negazi lisho iqiniso elihlobene nokholo. Ezingeni eliphezulu, la mazwi asho ubuhle bobunkulunkulu bothando lweNkosi kanye neqiniso elingcwele lokuhlakanipha kweNkosi. (Inkolo YeQiniso yobuKhrestu 706)
Kunemininingwane eminingi kuleso sigaba okubhekiselwe kuso, futhi kulezi ezilandelayo; ngokukholisayo basekela le ncazelo ezindimeni eziningi zeBhayibheli. Akufanele ukufunda!
Manje, ukubuyela esitatimendeni esithi "Nginguye"... nasi esesikhombisa. Ibonisa i-ecumenism ethile:
“Mina ngingumalusi omuhle.... Mina ngingumalusi omuhle, futhi ngiyazazi izimvu zami, futhi ezami ngiyazazi.... Nezinye izimvu nginazo, ezingezona ezalesi sibaya; bayakulizwa izwi lami; futhi kuyoba mhlambi munye, nomalusi munye. (Johane 10:11, 14)
Lezi ezinye izimvu zingabantu bebandla elingokomoya, “labo abaqondiswa futhi ababuswa ngeqiniso elingokomoya nokuhle”. Izimfihlakalo Zezulu 7035.
Namuhla, nomaphi lapho abantu befuna khona ukuhlakanipha kweqiniso futhi babonise uthando lwangempela ngomakhelwane babo, labo “bayizinye izibaya zezimvu”. Kukhona iqiniso likamoya nokuhle kuwo wonke amagumbi omhlaba. Kusukela ekuqapheliseni okungokomoya, uthando lweNkosi nokuhlakanipha belokhu kugeleza emicabangweni yabantu -- kwamukelwe kalufifi noma ngokucacile, noma ngezinye izikhathi ngokuvamile kwenqatshwa. Lapho, muva nje, amasiko adluliselwa ngomlomo kancane kancane adedela alotshiwe, “iZwi Lasendulo”, njengoba iSwedenborg ilibiza kanjalo, lasakazwa kuwo wonke umhlaba owakhiwe. Izingcezu zalo zagcinwa eTestamenteni Elidala, nakweminye imibhalo engcwele yasendulo.
Ku Johane 10:14, kuyilapho kukhona okulindelekile ukuthi izibaya zezimvu zizohlangana zibe munye, akusho ukuthi kufanele ukuba kwesinye isibaya manje. Leyo yinto okumele siyigubhe. Ingabe umuntu kufanele abe umKristu ukuze asindiswe? Kuthiwani uma bengumBuddha omuhle othando lwabo olubusayo luwuthando ngomakhelwane? Noma iMuslim elihle elifuna ukwazi nokwenza intando kaAllah?
Nali isiqephu esimangalisayo esivela kuLuka:
“Bayakuza bevela empumalanga, nasentshonalanga, nasenyakatho, naseningizimu, bahlale ekudleni embusweni kaNkulunkulu; ube ngowokugcina." (Luka 13:23, 28-30)
Kusukela eNcwadini yesAmbulo, kukhona lokhu, futhi:
“Emva kwalokho ngabona, bheka, isixuku esikhulu ebesingenakubalwa muntu, siphuma kuzo zonke izizwe, nemindeni, nabantu, nezilimi, simi phambi kwesihlalo sobukhosi naphambi kweWundlu, sembethe izingubo ezimhlophe. izandla ezandleni zabo..." (IsAmbulo 7:9)
Okokugcina, nali icaphuno eliqinisayo eliwusizo elivela Izimfihlakalo Zezulu 1032:
"INkosi inesihawu kuso sonke isintu. Ufuna ukusindisa wonke umuntu emhlabeni wonke futhi adonsele bonke abantu kuye. Umusa weNkosi awupheli; alizivumeli ukuba lilinganiselwe kwabambalwa ebandleni kodwa lifinyelela kuwo wonke umuntu osebusweni bomhlaba.”
Sizivumelanisa kanjani izisho ezizwakalayo kuphela nalezo ezizwakalayo ezihlanganisayo? Emfundisweni Entsha yobuKristu, noma ubani osothandweni lokuhle, noma othandweni lweqiniso lapho kukhona okuhle, uyosindiswa. Futhi, siyavuma ukuthi iqiniso nokuhle kuvela eNkosini, hhayi kithi. Noma ubani, kunoma iyiphi inkolo, ongalufuni usizo lukaNkulunkulu ekubalekeleni uthando olubi nemibono engamanga, uyohlala ebambekile. Noma ubani ofuna ngobuqotho, ngokuphikelelayo, ngokuthobeka efuna okuhle neqiniso “usebandleni likamoya”, okungukuthi, kwesinye sezibaya zezimvu.
Ingabe ezinye izibaya zezimvu zinamadlelo angcono kunezinye? Yebo. Ingabe izinkolo ziyahlukahluka ngenani leqiniso ezilidluliselayo, noma ngezinga lemikhuba ezitusayo neziphila ngayo? Yebo bayakwenza. NgeSifundo SeBhayibheli SamaKristu Esisha, sicabanga ukuthi ubuKristu buyindlela engcono kakhulu? Yebo. Ingabe ukuphela komgwaqo? Cha. Ingabe ukuphela kwendawo okuyiwa kuyo? Kungenzeka.
UJesu wathi Wayeyindlela, iQiniso, nokuPhila. WayeyiZwi esesimweni somuntu -- iqiniso likamoya. Ayikho indlela eya ensindisweni ngaphandle kokuphuma eNdleleni, ukufuna iQiniso, nokuphila ukuPhila kokuhle. Ungaqala noma yikuphi. Njengoba usondela esiqongweni sentaba, uzobe usondela endaweni lapho ukukhanya kucace kakhulu.
