Uloyiso kwihlabathi

Ukuchwayita okuhle ngumyalelo kaKristu, kwaye oku kufuneka kube yenye yeempawu zamaKristu kweli hlabathi. Abo bakholelwa kuKrestu akufuneki bakhathazeke (Yohane 14: 1). Iimbandezelo zeli hlabathi likho ziqinisekile, nangona kunjalo, azinakuthelekiswa nozuko lwehlabathi elizayo, apho uthatha inxaxheba kulo.


Uloyiso kwihlabathi

Ukuphindaphinda: Wavuswa kwakhona, kwaye ngoku uyinxalenye yosapho lukaThixo njengonyana, nangona kunjalo, kukuthanda kwakhe ukuba ungasuswa emhlabeni. “Andiceli ukuba ubasuse ehlabathini; ndicela ukuba bakusindise ebubini” (Yohane 17:15). Phambi kweli hlabathi ucwangco lukaKrestu lucacile: Yomelelani, ndiloyisile ihlabathi! (UYohane 16:36).

Siyayazi loo nto “Wenjenje uThixo ukulithanda kwakhe ihlabathi ude wancama uNyana wakhe okuphela kwamzeleyo…” (Yohane 3:16), ukuze wonke umntu okholwayo kuKrestu angatshabalali afumane ubomi obungunaphakade. Leliphi ilizwe alithandayo uThixo? UThixo waluthanda uluntu, Oko kukuthi, uThixo wabathanda bonke abantu abazalwe nguAdam ngaphandle kokwahlulahlula (ubuntu = umhlaba).

Ungomnye wabantu abathandwa kakhulu nguThixo, kwaye noKrestu wahlangulwa ukuze ungatshabalali, kuba esi iya kuba sisiphelo soluntu, ngenxa yembewu ka-Adam enokonakala.

Ngoku, ngenxa yokuba ukuKristu, awuseyonxalenye yoluntu olulahlekileyo “Abangabo abehlabathi, njengokuba nam ndingenguye owehlabathi” (Yohane 17:16). UThixo wabathanda bonke abantu, kwaye abo bakholwayo badalwa kwakhona njengamadoda omoya, kwaye bayeka ukuba ngabomhlaba ka-Adam.

Wakholelwa, wazalwa ngokutsha waba yinxalenye yendalo nosapho lukaThixo. Uyekile ukuba ngunyana ka-Adam, waza waba ngunyana kaThixo kuKristu (uAdam wokugqibela), indoda yokomoya.

UKristu, ngaphambi kokubethelelwa emnqamlezweni, wathandaza kuYise esithi: “Andiceli ukuba ubasuse ehlabathini; ndicela ukuba ubagcine ebubini” (Yohane 17:15). Oko kukuthi, uYesu wayezakususwa kweli hlabathi, kodwa abo bakholelwa kuye ngekhe basuswe kweli hlabathi. Oku kubonisa ukuba, nangona ungekasuswa kweli hlabathi, awungowalo (emhlabeni).

Uyimpahla ekhethekileyo kaThixo, utywinwe ngoMoya oyiNgcwele othenjisiweyo:

“… osisiqinisekiso selifa lethu, ukukhululwa kwendlu kaThixo, ukuze kuzukiswe ubuqaqawuli bakhe” (Eph 1:14).

Nangona ungekasuswa emhlabeni, sele ulusindile urhwaphilizo olukulo.

“Esinike zona izithembiso ezikhulu nezixabisekileyo, ukuze ngazo nibe nenxaxheba kubume bobuThixo, nisinde ekonakaleni, okukhoyo ngokukhanuka okusehlabathini” (2Pe 1: 4).

Ndihlala ndikhumbula “… ukuba singabakaThixo, nokuba ihlabathi lilele kongendawo” (1 Yohane 5:19).

UYesu ucele uYise ukuba angakhutshwa emhlabeni kwaye agcinwe ekhohlakeleyo. Ngale ndlela, themba kananjalo ukuba nguYesu okugcina ungafumaneki kokubi (1 Yohane 5:18).

UYesu waloyisa ihlabathi kwaye nawe uthatha inxaxheba kolu loyiso. Nangona kunjalo, oku akuthethi ukuba ngelixa ukhoyo kweli hlabathi ukhuselekile kwiimbandezelo “Ndinixelele le nto, ukuze nibe noxolo kum; Ehlabathini niya kuba neembandezelo, kodwa yomelelani, mna ndiloyisile ihlabathi” (Yohane 16:33).

Ukuchwayita okuhle ngumyalelo kaKristu kwaye oku kufuneka kube yenye yeempawu zabo bakholelwa kuye. Abo bakholelwa kuKrestu akufuneki baphazanyiswe xa behlangabezana neengxaki kobu bomi (Yohane 14: 1). Iimbandezelo zeli lizwe ziqinisekile, nangona kunjalo, azikho kufutshane nobuqaqawuli belizwe elizayo, apho uthatha inxaxheba kulo.

Uloyisile ihlabathi xa wawuphuma kusapho lukaThixo “Bantwana abancinci, nina ningabakaThixo, kwaye sele niboyisile; kuba okukhulu kuwe kunoko kusehlabathini” (1 Yohane 4: 4).

Ungaphezulu kwempumelelo yalowo wayekuthanda (Roma 8:37)!

Nangona kunjalo, kukho umyalezo wokulumkisa: “Musani ukulithanda ihlabathi nehlabathi…” (1 Yohane 2:15). Siyazi ukuba uKrestu usisicamagushelo sezono zehlabathi liphela, nabani na omamkelayo kungenxa yokuba Uyamthanda kwaye uyamthanda nalowo wamvelisayo.

Nabani na okholelwa kuKrestu wenza ukuthanda kukaThixo, uyafana nothando lukaThixo. Nabani na omthandayo uThixo akalithandi ihlabathi kwaye akangoweli hlabathi, oko kukuthi, kuba wenze intando kaThixo, okokukholelwa kulowo wamthumayo, awulithandi ihlabathi. Kodwa kwabo bangalithandiyo ilizwe (abo bakholelwa kuKrestu), kuhlala kungathandi oko kusehlabathini.

Ukuze ungathandi izinto ezisehlabathini kufuneka ulandele umpostile uPawulos. “Kwaye abo basebenzisa eli hlabathi, ngokungathi abalisebenzisanga kakubi, kuba ukubonakala kweli hlabathi kuyadlula” (1Co 7: 31). “Ngoku ke ihlabathi liyadlula, nenkanuko yalo…” (1 Yohane 2:17), kodwa uyakuhlala ngonaphakade noKristu.

Xa wawuzelwe nguThixo, woyisa umhlaba kwaye waqala ukuphila kumoya. Ke ngoko, ophilayo emoyeni (ivangeli), kufuneka ahambe ngokomoya “Ngokuba konke okuzelweyo nguThixo kuyaleyisa ihlabathi; lulo ke olu uloyiso oluleyisayo ihlabathi, ukholo lwethu” (1 Yohane 5: 4).
