Isihe Nokubekezelela KukaNkulunkulu Akuyona Imvelakancane—Ukuphenduka Kweqiniso Komuntu Kuyimvelakancane

Akukhathaleki ukuthi uNkulunkulu ubebathukuthelele kangakanani abantu baseNineve, kwathi bangamemezela ukuzila futhi bembatha indwangu yamasaka nomlotha, inhliziyo Yakhe yathamba kancane kancane, futhi waqala ukuguqula inhliziyo Yakhe. Ngesikhathi ememezela kubo ukuthi Wayezowubhubhisa umuzi wabo—umzuzwana ngaphambi kokuvuma nokuphenduka kwabo ezonweni zabo—uNkulunkulu wayesabathukuthelele. Kwathi sebedlule ochungechungeni lwezenzo zokuphenduka, intukuthelo kaNkulunkulu ngabantu baseNineve, yaguquka kancane kancane yaba isihe nokubabekezelela. Ayikho into ephikisanayo ngokuqondana kwalesi sambulo mayelana nalezi zingxenye ezimbili zesimo sikaNkulunkulu esehlweni esisodwa. Umuntu angakuqonda futhi akwazi kanjani lokhu kungabikhona kokuphikisana? UNkulunkulu ngokulandelana waveza futhi wabonakalisa lobu bukhona Bakhe obubili obuphikisana kakhulu, ngesikhathi abantu baseNineve bephenduka, wavumela abantu ukuthi babone ubuqobo nokunganengeki kobukhona bukaNkulunkulu.

Isimo Esilungile SoMdali Singokoqobo Futhi Sicacile

Ngesikhathi uNkulunkulu eguqula inhliziyo Yakhe ngabantu baseNineve, ingabe isihe nokubekezelela Kwakhe kwabe kuyisithombe esinamanga? Lutho neze! Ngakho inguquko phakathi kwalezi zingxenye ezimbili zesimo sikaNkulunkulu ngesikhathi sodaba olulodwa ikusiza ukuthi uboneni? Isimo sikaNkulunkulu siyinto ephelele; asiqhekekanga neze. Akukhathaleki ukuthi Uveza intukuthelo noma isihe nokubekezelela abantu, konke lokhu kungukuvezwa kwesimo Sakhe esilungile. Isimo sikaNkulunkulu singokoqobo futhi sicacile. Uguqula imicabango nombono Wakhe ngendlela izinto eziqhubeka ngayo. Ukuguquka kombono Wakhe ngabantu baseNineve kutshela isintu ukuthi unemicabango nemibono Yakhe ngokwakhe; akayona into esebenzisa okomshini noma isithombe sobumba, kodwa unguNkulunkulu ophilayo Uqobo Lwakhe. Wayengabathukuthelela abantu baseNineve, njengoba wayengabaxolela izici zabo ezidlulile ngokuhambisana nezimo zengqondo zabo; wayenganquma ukuletha umehlo kubantu baseNineve, futhi wayengaguqula isinqumo Sakhe ngenxa yokuphenduka kwabo. Abantu baqoka ukusebenzisa imigomo njengemishini, nokusebenzisa imigomo ukuhlaziya nokuchaza uNkulunkulu, njengoba bethanda ukusebenzisa izindlela ezibekiwe zokwenza okuthile (amafomula) ukwazi isimo sikaNkulunkulu. Ngakho-ke, ngangokucabanga kwesintu kukonke, uNkulunkulu akacabangi, futhi akanayo imibono enohlonze. Eqinisweni, imicabango kaNkulunkulu iyaguquguquka njalo ngangokuguquka kwezinto nesimo sezindawo; ngesikhathi le micabango iguquka, izingxenye ezihlukene zobukhona bukaNkulunkulu zizovela.

Ingqikithi Yakhe izovezwa noma ingasiphi isikhathi noma kuyiphi indawo ngokuhambisana nokuqhubeka kwezinto. Unentukuthelo yebhubesi nesihe nokubekezelela kukamama. Isimo Sakhe esilungile akuvumelekile ukuba singabazwe, siphulwe, siguqulwe noma sihlanekezelwe noma imuphi umuntu. Phakathi kwazo zonke izindaba nezinto zonke, isimo sikaNkulunkulu esilungile, okungukuthi, intukuthelo kaNkulunkulu nesihe sikaNkulunkulu, singavezwa noma kunini noma kukuphi. Uveza ngokucacile lezi zingxenye kuzo zonke izindawo ongazicabanga emvelweni futhi uzenza ngokucacile ngazo zonke izikhathi. Isimo sikaNkulunkulu esilungile asikhawuliswa isikhathi noma indawo, noma, ngamanye amazwi, isimo sikaNkulunkulu esilungile asivezwa noma asibonakaliswe njengomshini ngokuphoqwa imingcele yesikhathi noma indawo. Kunalokho, isimo sikaNkulunkulu esilungile sibonakaliswa siphinde sivezwe ngokukhululeka noma ingasiphi isikhathi noma ikuyiphi indawo. Uma ubona uNkulunkulu eguqula inhliziyo Yakhe futhi eyeka ukubonakalisa ulaka Lwakhe futhi egwema ukubhubhisa umuzi waseNineve, ungathi uNkulunkulu unesihe nothando kuphela? Ungasho ukuthi ulaka lukaNkulunkulu luqukethe amazwi ayize? Lapho uNkulunkulu ebonakalisa ulaka olwesabekayo futhi ehoxisa isihe Sakhe, ungathi akezwa uthando lweqiniso ngesintu? UNkulunkulu ubonakalisa ulaka olwesabekayo ngenxa yezenzo ezimbi zabantu; ulaka Lwakhe alunasici.

Ukuthinteka Kwakhe, ukuguquka kwenhliziyo Yakhe kanye nesihe nokubekezelela Kwakhe maqondana nomuntu akunasici nhlobo; kuhlanzekile, kumsulwa, akunasici futhi akungcolisiwe. Ukubekezelela kukaNkulunkulu ukubekezelela okumsulwa; isihe Sakhe isihe esimsulwa. Isimo Sakhe sizoveza ulaka kanye nesihe nokubekezelela, ngokuhambisana nokuphenduka komuntu kanye nenkambo yakhe ehlukile. Akunandaba ukuthi uvezani noma ubonakalisani, kumsulwa; kuqondile; ingqikithi yakho ihluke kakhulu kunanoma yini endalweni. Imiyalo zezenzo uNkulunkulu azibonakalisayo, imicabango nemibono Yakhe noma isiphi isinqumo esithile, kanye nanoma isiphi isinqumo esisodwa, akunazo nanoma iziphi izici noma amabala.

Ngokunjalo, isihe nokubekezelela kukaNkulunkulu, okungatholakali kunanoma isiphi isidalwa, kungcwele futhi akunasici, futhi kungama lapho kuzindlwa futhi kudingidwa odlule kukho.

Emuva kokuqonda indaba yeNineve, niyayibona enye ingxenye yengqikithi yesimo esilungile sikaNkulunkulu? Ingabe ulubonile olunye uhlangothi lwesimo sikaNkulunkulu sokulunga esiyingqayizivele? Kukhona phakathi kwesintu onalolu hlobo lwesimo na? Ukhona onalolu hlobo lolaka njengolukaNkulunkulu? Ukhona onesihe nokubekezelela njengoNkulunkulu? Ubani phakathi kwendalo ongavusa ulaka olukhulu futhi anqume ukubhubhisa noma ukuletha isigemegeme esintwini?

Ukuziphatha nemicabango yendalo isiyonke, ikhona ngaphansi kokwahlulela kwesimo Sakhe esilungile. Akekho ongalawula noma uveza ulaka noma isihe; ingqikithi yoMdali kuphela—noma ngamanye amazwi, isimo esilungile soMdali—esinganquma lokhu. Lena imvelo eyingqayizivele yesimo esilungile soMdali!

Uma sesihlaziyile futhi saqonda inguquko yombono kaNkulunkulu kubantu baseNineve, niyakwazi ukusebenzisa igama “ingqayizivele” ukuchaza isihe esitholakala esimweni esilungile sikaNkulunkulu? Besithe phambilini ulaka lukaNkulunkulu luyi ngxenye eyodwa yengqikithi yesimo Sakhe esilungile futhi esiyingqayizivele. Manje, sengizochaza izingxenye ezimbili, ulaka lukaNkulunkulu nesihe sikaNkulunkulu, njengesimo Sakhe esilungile. Isimo esilungile sikaNkulunkulu singcwele; asinakunengwa futhi asinakubuzwa; kuyinto engekho kunoma yisiphi isidalwa esidaliwe noma esingadalwanga. Kuyingqayizivele futhi kukhethekile kuNkulunkulu. Lokhu ngukuthi ulaka lukaNkulunkulu lungcwele futhi alunakho ukunengeka. Ngendlela efanayo, enye ingxenye yesimo esilungile sikaNkulunkulu—isihe sikaNkulunkulu—singcwele futhi asinakucasulwa. Asikho nesisodwa isidalwa esidaliwe noma esingadalwanga esingathatha indawo noma simele uNkulunkulu ezenzweni Zakhe, futhi akekho ongathatha indawo noma amele Yena ekubhujisweni kweSodoma noma ukusindiswa kweNineve. Lokhu ukubonakaliswa kweqiniso kwesimo sikaNkulunkulu esilungile futhi esiyingqayizivele.
