Iziqondiso Zenkundla Yezokuxhumana ZomKristu

Ukunyuka kwezinkundla zokuxhumana kudale inkundla lapho cishe noma ngubani onoxhumo lwe-inthanethi engaba inkanyezi, umgqugquzeli, noma umuzwa wegciwane. Nakuba ziningi izindlela ezingenzeka zokusebenzisa izinkundla zokuxhumana ukuze zibe nethonya lobuKristu, amaKristu amaningi awayilungele impi engokomoya ebhekene nawo lapho engena ezinkundleni zokuxhumana. Kunokuba basondele begqoke izikhali ezingokomoya ezigcwele, abaningi bayehlisa ukuqapha futhi isitha sizuza ngokugcwele. Ukuchaza izinkundla zokuxhumana njengezimpi ezingokomoya kuzobonakala kungavamile kwabaningi, kodwa nginikeza izizathu eziyisikhombisa zokuthi kungani inkundla yezokuxhumana injalo. Njengoba siqhubeka nalezi zizathu, ngiyakunxenxa uzibuze lemibuzo: Kungani ngingena kulolu hlelo lokusebenza, iwebhusayithi, noma isifunzo sezindaba? Ngiyamhlonipha yini uNkulunkulu ngisezinkundleni zokuxhumana?

Isizathu #1: Ukukhonza izithixo

Uma kukhulunywa ngokukhonza izithinxo, abanye bethu bacabanga ngama-Israyeli nethole legolide, noma amaGreki anonkulunkulu bawo abaningi namathempeli, okanye izibazo nezithombe ezenziwe. Into ukuthi, sicabanga izithixo njengezinto ezithintekayo. Nokho, izithixo kuyinoma yini ethatha indawo efanelekile yaNkulunkulu ezinhlizweni zethu. Kubekwe ngendlela ehlukile, imali, ucansi, udumo, isikhathi, umlingani wethu, izingane zethu, ukudla, ukuzivocavoca, "uhlobo" lwethu, uyasithola isithombe. Noma yini ungaba isithixo uma siyenza ibaluleke kakhulu kunoNkulunkulu. USathane unobuciko ekujikeni iziphoo ezinhle esizinikwe uNkulunkulu (umsebenzi, ucansi, ukudla, umndeni njll), usikhuthaza ukuthi lezizinto sizitholele ngokwethu ngezindlela ezisheshayo singalindi uNkulunkulu. Ekujuleni kokukhonza izithixo, kunomqondo wokuthi, ezinye izinto ngaphandle kukaNkulunkulu zingagculisa izimfuno nezidingo zami.Izinkundla zethu zokuxhumana zigcwele lomqondo. Kumele sisebenzise izinkundla zokuxhumana nezikhali ezigcwele ezingokomoya, siqonda ngokugcwele ukuthi uNkulunkulu kuphela ogculisayo nonelisayo. Ngengoba esho uDavide kuMahubo 34v 8 “ “Yizwani, nibone ukuthi uSimakade muhle; babusisiwe labo abaphephela kuye.”. Ngiyaninxusa ukuthi uzizwele uNkulunkulu namhlanje kunokuthi ulandele ukuthandwa kuzinkundla zokuxhumala.

Isizathu #2: Ubuvila

Ngaphandle uma uke waphila ngaphansi kwedwala iminyaka embalwa edlule, uyazi ukuthi izinkundla zokuxhumana ziboleka ubuvila. Izinkundla eziningi zisebenzisa ama-algorithms ahlala ebeka okuthunyelwe okuhlobene nomuntu siqu kokuphakelayo kwezindaba zakho ukuze uhlale umatasa. Ngeshwa, lokhu futhi kukuvimbela ekusebenziseni isikhathi sakho ngempumelelo. Kweyesi-2 Thesalonika isahluko sesithathu, uPawulu ukhuluma ngendaba yokungenzi lutho futhi ukhuluma ngokuqondile evesini lesikhombisa kuya kweleshumi nanye. Uthi, “Uma umuntu engathandi ukusebenza, makangadli. Ngoba siyezwa ukuthi abanye phakathi kwenu bahamba ngobuvila, bengenzi lutho ngomsebenzi, kodwa bengenzi lutho. Lena akuyona inkinga entsha ebhekene nekholwa! Abantu babhekane nenkinga yokungenzi lutho kudala ngaphambi kwe-smartphone. Ungase ubuze: “Iyini inkinga ngokuphumula nokuskrola kwipheyiji lami?” Isibhedlela saseMcLean sinesihloko esikhuluma ngezinkinga ezithile ezivela ezinkundleni zokuxhumana, okungukuthi ukucindezeleka nokukhathazeka.[1] Ukwengeza, kumaKristu, kuyinkinga lapho isikhathi sethu ezinkundleni zokuxhumana sibekwe phambili kunesikhathi sethu eZwini likaNkulunkulu. Singakanani isikhathi ongakwazi ukusichitha ekukhulekeleni abanye, ekufundeni iBhayibheli, nasekuxoxeni nabantu ngomthelela weVangeli empilweni yakho? Inkundla yezokuxhumana ingakunika imizuzwana eyishumi nanhlanu yodumo, kodwa iVangeli linamandla okuguqula izimpilo ingunaphakade.

Isizathu #3: Isici esithi "Mina".

Mhlawumbe akukho lutho olubamba inhliziyo yenkundla yezokuxhumana njengesithombe ozishuthe sona. Futhi enhliziyweni yesithombe ozishuthe sona nguwe, noma into ethi "mina". Kuwukuzikhazimulisa ngaphezu kwakho konke okunye. Lokhu kungqubuzana ngokuqondile nomyalo kaNkulunkulu kumKristu, njengoba uJesu esibiza ukuba sizidele, sithathe isiphambano sethu, futhi simlandele. Ukuzidumisa kwezinkundla zokuxhumana kuzifakazela kakhulu emyalezweni wokuthi konke esikudingayo ukuze sijabule ukulandela izinhliziyo zethu. Ikakhulukazi ekuqaleni konyaka, umuntu angathola noma iyiphi inombolo yemiyalezo eyakhayo ezungeza okuphakelayo kwezindaba. IBhayibheli lisitshela indaba ehlukile, yokuthi inhliziyo iyakhohlisa ngaphezu kwakho konke, futhi imbi ngokuphelelwa yithemba. UJesu wathi zonke izinhlobo zobubi nobubi ziphuma ezinhliziyweni zethu. Ngempela, ukunqoba isici esithi “Mina” akukhona lokho esingakwenza kodwa kumayelana nalokho uKristu asekwenzile. UPawulu ubhala ngalokhu okuningi ezincwadini zakhe. NjengamaKristu, sibethelwe esiphambanweni kanye noKristu. Akuseyithina esiphilayo, kodwa uKristu ophila kithi. Futhi ukuphila manje esikuphila enyameni siphila ngokukholwa eNdodaneni kaNkulunkulu, eyasithanda futhi yazinikela ngenxa yethu. Ukwengeza, kufanele “…sigqoke iNkosi uJesu Kristu, ningalungiseleli inyama ukuba nigcwalise izinkanuko zayo.” Uma ungawutholi umfanekiso okwamanje, ake ngikucacise: akukho ngawe! AmaKristu ahlengiwe ukuze anikeze inkazimulo nodumo kuNkulunkulu, hhayi ukuzithuthukisa thina nezenzo zethu. Ingabe lowo mlayezo iphrofayela yakho yenkundla yezokuxhumana ewuthumela emhlabeni? Uma kungenjalo, sebenzisa isikhathi esithile emthandazweni futhi ucele uNkulunkulu akusize uhlole inhliziyo nezisusa zakho.

Isizathu #4: Ukuzihlukanisa

Okunye okubaxakayo ezinkundleni zokuxhumana wukuthi iqale yavezwa njengendlela yokuhlanganisa abantu kodwa yasheshe yaba wucwaningo lokuzihlukanisa. Nakuba inkundla yezokuxhumana isisiza ukuthi sixhumane endaweni nesikhathi, ingaba kalula enye imaski esiyibekela umhlaba. Izinkulungwane zezihlungi, ukuthintwa, kanye nemithelela imboza amaphutha abonwayo futhi aveze isithombe esifuna abantu basibone. Ekwethuleni uhlangothi lwethu oluhle kakhulu kubantu ngokusebenzisa inkundla yezokuxhumana, sakha ukuzehlukanisa nabanye. Ukungabaza kuqala ukungena…ingabe abantu bayangithanda ngenxa yami noma kumuntu engimveza ekuphakeleni kwami…futhi imaskhi ihlala isikhathi eside. Sivaleleka “kwiqiniso” eliku-inthanethi ngokulahlekelwa ubudlelwano bomuntu siqu. Inkululeko yezinkundla zokuxhumana esikhundleni salokho iba yijele esibhajwe kulo; ukuhlukaniswa esikhundleni sokuxhumana kuyabusa. Indlela eya ekuzihlukaniseni yenzeka kancane kancane. Okokuqala, ukulahlekelwa imisebenzi evamile, njengenkonzo yesonto, isonto elilodwa noma amabili ngokulandelana, bese kuthatha isikhathi eside ukuphendula imibhalo nezingcingo, ukuhoxa ebuhlotsheni bomuntu siqu, futhi ekugcineni ugweme ukuthintana okungafuneki ngangokunokwenzeka. Kodwa lokhu kuphambene neBhayibheli. AmaKristu awabizwanga ukuba abe abalindi bodwa. Kunalokho, sinxuswa ukuba sihlangane ndawonye, ​​sikhuthazane, futhi sithwalisane imithwalo yethu. Uma uzithola usendleleni ebheke ekubeni wedwa, finyelela kumzalwane noma udade omethembayo kuKristu ozohamba nawe ngezikhathi zobunzima bomuntu siqu.

Isizathu #5: Imiyalezo efihliwe

Angikhulumi ngemilayezo eqanjiwe efihliwe ye-National Treasure noma i-DaVinci Code, kodwa kunalokho ukusakazwa okuqhubekayo kolwazi esilucubungula ngokungazi ekusebenziseni kwethu izinkundla zokuxhumana. Lapho sichayeka kakhulu embonweni, yilapho sikholelwa ukuthi lowo mbono ulungile kakhulu. Ukuchayeka okungaguquki emicabangweni nemibono kuholela ekuvunyweni buthule. Siphelelwa amandla ngenxa yobucayi besimo futhi siqale ukukwamukela “njengokujwayelekile.” Nakuba lokhu kungeyona into embi ngokwako, njengamaKristu kumelwe sikhumbule ukuthi izindinganiso zokuziphatha, izindinganiso, nezinkambiso zezwe kungqubuzana nokuziphatha, izindinganiso, nezinkambiso zombuso kaNkulunkulu. Sibizelwe ukuba sezweni kodwa hhayi abezwe, okusho ukuthi kufanele siqaphele ukuthi, esikhundleni sezwi likaNkulunkulu, izwe lithonya izinkolelo zethu. Lokhu kuhlotshaniswa eduze nobuhlobo bethu nabanye kanye nemiphumela yokuzihlukanisa ekuhambeni kwethu kobuKristu. Kubalulekile ukuba sibe nabafowethu nodadewethu abangamaKristu ekuphileni kwethu abazosilungisa ngomusa lapho siqala ukuduka. Kubalulekile nokutadisha nokwazi leloZwi likaNkulunkulu ngokuseduze. Ngaphandle kolwazi nokuqonda iZwi likaNkulunkulu, singena empini engokomoya singahlomile. Inkohliso iyisikhali esingabhubhisa sesitha, kodwa iqiniso leZwi likaNkulunkulu linikeza isisekelo esiqinile sokumelana namaqhinga kasathane. Ngiyakukhuthaza ukuba utadishe iZwi, uqhathanise ukuhlakanipha kwezwe neqiniso lemiBhalo, futhi uqaphe inhliziyo yakho ngaphezu kwakho konke okunye.

Isizathu #6: Ukuhaha

Nakuba abazali bakho kanye nogogo nomkhulu kungenzeka ukuthi bazamile ukuhambisana nabakwaJones, ungase uzithole uzama ukuhambisana namaKardashians, noma ezinye izinkanyezi “zangempela” zosaziwayo. Izinkundla zokuxhumana zengeza uphethiloli emlilweni wokuhaha. Akusadingeki sincike kuma-paparazzi ukuze sazi ngempilo yabacebile nabadumile. Vele uwalandele ezinkundleni zokuxhumana futhi ungagcwaliswa yonke imininingwane (ihlungwe ngokufanelekile, kunjalo!) Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ulwa nokuhaha noma cha, udinga ukuya enkundleni yakho yezokuxhumana ngenhliziyo nengqondo efanele. Lokho kuqala ngokugxila kulokho uNkulunkulu akulungiselele kona. EyabaseFilipi isahluko sesine inikeza isiqondiso esihle kakhulu sokugcina uNkulunkulu eze kuqala. Jabulani eNkosini ngaso sonke isikhathi, nibonge, niphumule ekuthuleni kukaKristu, nizindle okuyiqiniso, nokuhloniphekayo, nokulunga, nokuthandekayo, nokumhlophe. Njengoba senza lokhu, uNkulunkulu uyoguqula izifiso zenhliziyo yethu ukuze njengoPawulu, nathi sithi konke kuwukulahlekelwa nemfucuza ngaphandle kukaKristu.

Isizathu #7: Inkanuko

Ingoma yezingane ifika engqondweni: “Qaphela amehlo amancane kulokho okubonayo, qaphela amehlo amancane kulokho okubonayo; ngokuba uBaba osezulwini ubheka phansi othandweni, ngakho qaphelani nina enikubonayo.” Ezinye izinkundla zokuxhumana zinikeza indlela eseyenziwe ngomumo yokukhanukela, kodwa ngisho nokuthunyelwe okubonakala kungenangozi kungasibangela ukuba sikhubeke. Umuntu angacindezelwa ukuthi achithe imizuzu emihlanu ezinkundleni zokuxhumana eziningi ngaphandle kokuhlangana nomuntu ogqoke (noma okhumule) ngendlela evusa inkanuko. Ngaphambi kokuba siqale ukusola abanye, khumbula ukuthi inkanuko iyisimo senhliziyo yethu. Ngakho-ke, ikhambi alitholakali ngokumane ugweme zonke izithombe ezingase zibangele inkanuko. Esikhundleni salokho, sidinga ukubeka kuqala isikhathi sokuba neNkosi futhi sithembele Kuye ukuze aguqule izinhliziyo zethu futhi asiphule izifiso zethu zesono. Ngesikhathi esifanayo, kufanele ngamunye aqaphele ukuthambekela kwethu engozini ebangelwa izinkundla zokuxhumana futhi siqikelele ukuthi singazifaki esilingweni ngamabomu. UJohane usitshela ukuthi akufanele sithande izinto zezwe; inkanuko yenyama, inkanuko yamehlo, lokuzigqaja kokuphila.

 

Ukukhula kwezinkundla zokuxhumana kuveza izinselelo eziningi kumKrestu kanye nokuhamba kwabo neNkosi. Futhi inikeza inkundla enkulu ongahlanganyela kuyo iVangeli. AmaKristu asebenzisa lezi zinkundla kudingeka azilungiselele ngokwengqondo nangokomoya ukuze abhekane nezingozi ezingokwemvelo zezinkundla zokuxhumana. Akufanele sifaniswe naleli zwe kodwa kufanele siguqulwe ngokwenziwa ibentsha ingqondo yethu. Ngethemba ukuthi ukugxila kwenu kuzoba eNkosini nasekulungeni kwayo njengoba nixoxisana nesiko ngokusebenzisa izinkundla zokuxhumana.
