Ngingakhuluma ngokuhlangenwe nakho okuthile kuyo yonke ingxenye yeqiniso futhi ngingakhuluma ngolwazi oluthile oluncane. Ngaphezu kwalokho, uMoya oNgcwele ungisolile ngalolu daba futhi sengiyakwazi ukuluyeka kancane futhi ngiyakwazi ukuthoba kancane.” Lokhu kungethathwe njengenguquko esimweni sempilo. Ngani? Uyakwazi ukuyeka kancane, kodwa lokho okwenzayo akukafiki ezingeni lokwenza iqiniso ngempela. Mhlawumbe isimo sakho sifanelekile okwesikhashana futhi izimo zakho ziyavuma, noma izimo zakho ziyakuphoqa ukuba uziphathe ngale ndlela, noma isimo somqondo wakho sizinzile futhi uMoya oNgcwele uyasebenza, khona-ke uyakwazi ukukwenza. Uma ubuphakathi kokuvivinywa njengoJobe owezwa ubuhlungu bokuvivinywa, noma njengoPetru owacelwa nguNkulunkulu ukuthi afe, ubuyokwazi ukuthi, “Noma ngifa emva kokufinyelela ekwazini Wena, kuyobe kulungile”? Ukuguquka esimweni akwenzeki ngokushesha, futhi akusho ukuthi ungenza iqiniso kuso sonke isimo emva kokuqonda iqiniso. Ngaphandle, kubonakala sengathi wenza iqiniso, kodwa empeleni, inhlobo yezenzo zakho ayikhombisi ukuthi wenza iqiniso. Baningi abantu abanokuziphatha okuthile kwangaphandle, abakholwa ukuthi “Ngenza iqiniso. Ngabe angiyifezi imisebenzi yami? Ngabe angishiyanga umndeni nomsebenzi wami? Angenzi iqiniso ngokufeza imisebenzi yami?” Kodwa uNkulunkulu uthi: “Angivumi ukuthi wenza iqiniso.” Kuyini lokhu? Lokhu kuyindlela yokuziphatha. Uma ngikhuluma iqiniso, ungalahlwa ngecala ngenxa yakho; ngeke kunconywe, ngeke kukhunjulwe. Uma ngikhuluma iqiniso ngokwengeziwe, ekuhlaziyeni lokhu, wenza ububi, ukuziphatha kwakho kuphikisa uNkulunkulu. Ngaphandle, awunqamuli, awuphazamisi, awulimazi lutho, noma wenze ngokuphambene nanoma yiliphi iqiniso. Kubonakala sengathi okwenzayo kuyezwakala futhi kunomqondo, kodwa wenza ububi futhi umelana noNkulunkulu.

Inguquko esimweni nokwenza iqiniso akulula njengoba abantu becabanga. Niyaqonda manje? Ninakho okuhlangenwe nakho ngalokhu? Ningase ningakuqondi uma kubandakanya ingqikithi yezindaba. Niyobe ningene ngokungajulile ngokwedlulele. Nigijima lonke usuku, kusuka entathakusa kuze kuyohwalala, nisheshe nivuke nephuze ukulala, kodwa aniqondi ngokucacile ukuthi kuyini ukuguquka kwesimo noma siyini isimo sangempela. Akukhi phezulu lokhu? Kungakhathaleki ukuthi umdala noma umusha, ningase ningayizwa ingqikithi nokujula kwenguquko esimweni.

519. Noma ngabe kuhle kanjani ukuziphatha komuntu, lokhu akufakazeli ukuthi balalela uNkulunkulu, noma ukuthi benza iqiniso. Izinguquko ekuziphatheni ziyinkohliso yesikhashana, ziwukubonakaliswa kwentshisekelo, futhi azichazi ukuphila. Ngakho uma ubona abantu, uma bephakathi kokushisekela, bengenzela indlu kaJehova izinto futhi baze bayeke izinto, bengazidumisi. Konke ongakwenza ukuqondisa laba bantu endleleni yeqiniso, maqondana nendlela yokuphila —angeke udambise umdlandla wabo. Abantu abanentshisekelo ngokuvamile bagcwala ugqozi futhi banezifiso; abaningi babo balangazelela indlela yeqiniso, futhi bangabantu abamiselwa ngaphambili futhi bakhethwa uNkulunkulu. Abantu abaningi abanentshisekelo bakholelwa kuNkulunkulu ngeqiniso; uma umuntu eyikholwa elisha futhi engenantshisekelo, lokhu kuyinkinga. Yilabo abanentshisekelo abaholeleka kalula endleleni elungile. Abantu bengaziphatha kahle, kodwa lokho akusho ukuthi baneqiniso. Intshisekelo yabantu ingabenza kuphela ukuba bathobele imfundiso futhi belandele isiqondiso; abantu abangenalo iqiniso abanayo indlela yokuxazulula izinkinga ezinzima, futhi isifundiso angake simele iqiniso. Labo asebeguqule izimo zabo bahlukile. Baneqiniso ngaphakathi, bahlola izindaba zonke, bayakwazi ukwenza ngokuhambisana nentando kaNkulunkulu, ukwenza ngokwezimiso zeqiniso, ukwenza ngokwenelisa uNkulunkulu, futhi bayayiqonda imvelo yenkohlakalo abayivezayo. Ngesikhathi imibono nemicabango yabo ivezwa, bayakwazi ukuzihlola nokulahla inyama. Yile ndlela okubonakala ngayo inguquko esimweni. Into ebalulekile kakhulu ngenguquko yesimo ukuthi banakho kokubili iqiniso nokucaciseleka, futhi uma benza izinto, benza iqiniso ngokucophelela futhi inkohlakalo yabo ayiveli ngokuvamile. Ngokuvamile, umuntu onesimo esiguquliwe uveza ingqondo nokuqonda, futhi ngenxa yokuqonda kwabo iqiniso, ukuzikhukhumeza nokuzidla akuveli kakhulu. Bayakwazi ukubona konke ngokucacile, ngakho ababi nokuzidla ngemva kokuthola lokhu kucaciseleka. Bayakwazi ukuba nokuqonda okulinganisiwe kokuthi iyiphi indawo yomuntu, uziphatha kanjani ngendlela, uzinikela kanjani, yini okumele uyisho nokumele ungayisho, okumele uyisho futhi uyenze kubaphi abantu. Yingakho kuthiwa lezi zinhlobo zabantu banengqondo. Labo abaguqula izimo zabo baphila umfanekiso womuntu ngeqiniso, futhi baneqiniso; abaphili phansi kwethonya labanye. Labo abaguqukile esimweni bangconywana, abashayi sengathi bayashisa noma bayabanda, nanoma ngabe bakusiphi isimo, bayakwazi ukwenza umsebenzi wabo ngendlela kanye nokwenza izinto ukwanelisa uNkulunkulu. Labo abanezimo eziguquliwe abagxilile ekutheni bengenzani ukuzenza babukeke kahle ezingeni lokuzenzisa—banokucaciseleka okungaphakathi kokuthi bengenzani ukwanelisa uNkulunkulu. Ngakho-ke, ngaphandle bengengebonakale benogqozi noma sengathi kukhona into enkulu kakhulu abayenzile, kodwa konke abakwenzayo kunomqondo, kubalulekile, futhi kunemiphumela ebonakalayo. Labo abanezimo zabo eziguquliwe banesiqiniseko sokuba neqiniso eliningi—lokhu kungafakazelwa indlela ababona ngayo izinto kanye nezimiso zabo ezenzweni zabo. Labo abangenalo iqiniso ngokuphelele abakaguquki esimweni. Lokhu akusho ukuthi umuntu okhulile ebuntwini bakhe uzovele abe noshintsho esimweni; kucishe kwenzeke kakhulu uma ushevu onobusathane ngaphakathi kwemvelo yomuntu ushintsha ngenxa yokwazi kwabo uNkulunkulu kanye nokuqonda kwabo iqiniso. Lokho kusho ukuthi, labo oshevu sebehlanziwe futhi iqiniso elishiwo uNkulunkulu liyagxila phakathi komuntu, liphenduka ukuphila kwakhe, futhi liphenduka isisekelo sokuphila kwakhe. Kungalesi sikhathi kuphela lapho aphenduka khona umuntu omusha, futhi nesimo sakhe sibe sesiyashintsha. Lokhu akusho ukuthi isimo sabo sangaphandle sesimnene kangcono kuna ngaphambili, bebevame ukuzikhukhumeza kodwa manje amazwi abo asenengqondo, ukuthi babe vame ukungalaleli muntu kodwa manje sebeyakwazi ukulalela abanye —lezi zinguquko zangaphamdle angeke kushiwo ukuthi izinguquko esimweni. Empeleni izinguquko esimweni zimbandakanya nazo lezi zimo, kodwa into ebaluleke kakhulu ukuthi ukuphila kwabo kwangaphakathi sekushintshile. Iqiniso elivezwa uNkulunkulu liphenduka libe ukuphila kwabo, abanye oshevu bobusathane ngaphakathi sebususiwe, indlela umuntu aqonda ngayo seyishintshiwe ngokuphelele, futhi ayikho into kuyona ehambisana kanye naleyo yasezweni. Uyabona ngokucacile izinhlelo kanye noshevu kadrako omdala obomvu; useyiqonda kahle ingqikithi yokuphila eyiqiniso. Ngakho imigomo yokuphila kwakho isishintshile—lolu ushintsho olubaluleke kakhulu kanye nengqikithi yoshintsho kwisimo.
