187. Ukuba senyameni kokuqala kwakungokokuhlenga isintu esonweni ngomzimba wenyama kaJesu, okuwukuthi, wasindisa umuntu esiphambanweni kodwa isimo sokukhohlakala kukaSathane kwasala kumuntu. Ukuba senyameni kwesibili akuseyikho ukusebenza njengomhlatshelo wesono kodwa ukusindisa ngokugcwele labo ababekhululwe esonweni. Lokhu kwenzelwa ukuba labo abathethelelwe bakhululwe ezonweni zabo futhi bahlanzwe ngokuphelele ukuze bathole ukuguquka esimweni, ngalokho bagqashule ethonyeni lobumnyama bukaSathane babuyele phambi kwesihlalo sikaNkulunkulu. Kungale ndlela kuphela lapho umuntu eyongcweliswa ngokugcwele. UNkulunkulu uqale umsebenzi wensindiso eNkathini Yomusa ngemva kokuphela kweNkathi Yomthetho. UNkulunkulu ngeke aphethe umsebenzi Wakhe wokwahlulela nokusola umuntu ngokuvukela bese engena ekuphumuleni zingakafiki izinsuku zokugcina. Ngakho, ezigabeni ezintathu zomsebenzi, kukabili kuphela lapho uNkulunkulu ebe yinyama khona ukuze azenzele Yena mathupha umsebenzi kubantu. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi yisigaba esisodwa kuphela ezigabeni ezintathu zomsebenzi esiwukuhola abantu ezimpilweni zabo, ngenkathi lezi ezinye ziwumsebenzi wensindiso. UNkulunkulu angaphila nabantu kuphela lapho eba yinyama futhi akuzwe ukuhlupheka okusemhlabeni, nokuthi aphile enyameni yomuntu ejwayelekile. Kungaleyo ndlela kuphela lapho enganika umuntu oyisidalwa Sakhe izwi elisebenzisekayo alidingayo. Umuntu uthola insindiso egcwele evela kuNkulunkulu ngenxa kaNkulunkulu osenyameni, hhayi ngemithandazo abayithumela ezulwini. Ngoba umuntu uyinyama; akakwazi ukubona uMoya kaNkulunkulu futhi kunzima kakhulu ukuya Kuye. Umuntu angakwazi ukuzihlanganisa noNkulunkulu osenyameni; futhi ngaye kuphela angaqonda amazwi kanye namaqiniso futhi athole insindiso ephelele. Ukuba senyameni kwesibili kwanele ukususa izono zomuntu futhi kumcwebise ngokugcwele. Ngakho ukuba senyameni kwesibili kuzophetha wonke umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu osenyameni futhi kuphelelise ukubaluleka kukaNkulunkulu osenyameni. Ngemva kwalokho, umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu osenyameni wonke uyophela nya. Ngemva kokuba senyameni okwesibili, ngeke aphinde abe yinyama ngenxa yomsebenzi Wakhe. Ngoba konke ukuphatha Kwakhe kuyobe sekuphelile. Ezinsukwini zokugcina, ukuba senyameni Kwakhe kuyobe sekubazuze ngokugcwele abakhethiweyo Bakhe futhi bonke abantu ezinsukwini zokugcina bayobe sebehlukanisiwe ngokwezinhlobo zabo. Ngeke esawenza umsebenzi wensindiso noma abuyele enyameni ukuze azokwenza noma yimuphi umsebenzi.

188. Emva komsebenzi kaJehova, uJesu waba inyama ukuze enze umsebenzi Wakhe phakathi kwabantu. Umsebenzi Wakhe awenziwanga uzimele wodwa, kodwa wakhelwa phezu komsebenzi kaJehova. Kwakungumsebenzi wenkathi entsha ngemva kokuba uNkulunkulu eqedile ngeNkathi Yomthetho. Ngokufanayo, ngemva kokuba uphelile umsebenzi kaJesu, uNkulunkulu waqhubeka nomsebenzi Wakhe weminyaka elandelayo, ngoba konke ukuphatha kukaNkulunkulu kuhlale kuqhubekela phambili. Lapho inkathi yakudala idlula, endaweni yayo kuzongena inkathi entsha, kuthi lapho usuphelile umsebenzi omdala, umsebenzi omusha uqhubeke nokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu. Lokhu kuba senyameni kukaNkulunkulu kungukuba senyameni kukaNkulunkulu kwesibili ngemva kokuqedwa komsebenzi kaJesu. Yebo, lokhu kuba senyameni akwenzeki ngokuzimela kodwa, kunalokho kuyisigaba sesithathu somsebenzi ngemva kweNkathi Yomthetho neNkathi Yomusa. Isigaba ngasinye esisha somsebenzi kaNkulunkulu sihlala siletha ukuqala okusha nenkathi entsha. Ngakho-ke kanjalo kukhona ushintsho oluhambisanayo esimweni sikaNkulunkulu, endleleni Yakhe yokusebenza, endaweni yomsebenzi Wakhe, nasegameni Lakhe. Singama ngale ngokuthi kungani kunzima kumuntu ukwamukela umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu enkathini entsha. Ngale kokuthi uphikiswa kanjani abantu, uNkulunkulu uhlale enza umsebenzi Wakhe, futhi uhlale eqondisa bonke abantu ebayisa phambili. Ngesikhathi uJesu eza emhlabeni wabantu, weza neNkathi Yomusa waqeda iNkathi Yomthetho. Ezinsukwini zokugcina, uNkulunkulu wabuye waba yinyama, wathi ukuba abe yinyama ngalesi sikhathi, waqeda iNkathi Yomusa waletha iNkathi Yombuso. Bonke labo abemukela ukuba senyameni kwesibili kukaNkulunkulu bazongena eNkathini Yombuso, bakwazi ukuvuma ngokwabo ukuholwa nguNkulunkulu. Yize uJesu enza umsebenzi omningi kubantu, waqeda kuphela ukuhlengwa kwabantu waba umnikelo wezono zabantu; akasisusanga isimo senkohlakalo yomuntu. Ukusindisa umuntu ngokugcwele ekuthonyweni uSathane akudingi kuphela ukuthi uJesu athathe izono zabantu njengomnikelo wesono, kodwa kudinga ukuba noNkulunkulu enze umsebenzi omkhulu ukuze kuqedwe nya lesi simo somuntu, esiye sonakaliswa uSathane. Ngakho, ngemva kokuba umuntu ethethelelwe izono zakhe, uNkulunkulu wayesebuyele enyameni ukuze aholele abantu enkathini entsha, waqala umsebenzi wokujezisa nokwahlulela, kanti umsebenzi Wakhe usubeke abantu endaweni ephezulu. Bonke labo abathobela ukubuswa nguNkulunkulu bazothokozela iqiniso eliphezulu bathole nezibusiso ezinkulu. Bazophila ekukhanyeni, bazuze iqiniso, indlela, nokuphila.

189. Incazelo yokuba sesimweni somuntu ukuthi uNkulunkulu ubonakala enyameni, futhi ufika ezosebenza phakathi kwesintu esidalwe Nguye esesimweni senyama. Ngakho, ukuze uNkulunkulu athathe isimo somuntu, kumele aqale abe yinyama, inyama enobuntu obujwayelekile; lokhu kuyisidingo esibaluleke kakhulu. Eqinisweni, okuqondiwe ngokuthatha isimo somuntu kukaNkulunkulu ukuthi uNkulunkulu uphila futhi asebenze enyameni, uNkulunkulu engqikithini Yakhe uqobo uthatha umzimba wenyama, uba ngumuntu.

190. Ukuba uNkulunkulu abe sesimweni somuntu kusho ukuthi uMoya kaNkulunkulu uba yinyama, okuwukuthi, uNkulunkulu uba yinyama; umsebenzi awenza enyameni umsebenzi kaMoya, owenzeka enyameni, oboniswa yinyama. Akekho umuntu ongakwazi ukufeza inkonzo eyenziwa uNkulunkulu osemzimbeni wenyama ngaphandle kukaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu; okuwukuthi, uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu kuphela, lobu buntu obujwayelekile—hhayi futhi omunye umuntu—angabonakalisa umsebenzi wobunkulunkulu. Ukuba, ngesikhathi sokuza Kwakhe kokuqala, uNkulunkulu wayengazange abe nobuntu obujwayelekile ngaphambi kokuba abe neminyaka engamashumi amabili nesishiyagalolunye—ukuba wakwazi ukwenza izimangaliso lapho ezalwa nje, ukuba wayekwazi ukukhuluma ulimi lwasezulwini lapho efunda ukukhuluma nje, ukuba kwathi zisuka nje lapho enyathela okokuqala emhlabeni wabe ekwazi ukuqonda zonke izinto zomhlaba, ukuqonda ahlukanise yonke imicabango nezinhloso zawo wonke umuntu—umuntu onjalo wayengeke abizwe ngomuntu ojwayelekile, futhi inyama enjalo yayingeke ibizwe ngenyama yomuntu. Ukuba kwakunjalo ngoKristu, ukubaluleka nengqikithi yokuthatha umzimba wenyama kukaNkulunkulu kwakuyolahleka. Ukuthi unobuntu obujwayelekile kubonisa ukuthi unguNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu; iqiniso lokuthi wedlula ekukhuleni ngendlela ejwayelekile, liqhubeka libonisa ukuthi ngempela uyinyama ejwayelekile; ngaphezu kwalokho, umsebenzi Wakhe uwubufakazi obanele bokuthi unguLizwi kaNkulunkulu, uMoya kaNkulunkulu obe yinyama.

191. UNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu kuthiwa nguKristu, kanti uKristu uyinyama embethwe uMoya kaNkulunkulu. Le nyama ayifani nomuntu oyinyama. Lo mehluko wenziwa ukuthi uKristu akayena owenyama negazi kodwa usesimweni somuntu kaMoya. Unesimo sobuntu obujwayelekile nobunkulunkulu obuphelele. Akekho umuntu onobunkulunkulu Bakhe. Ubuntu Bakhe obujwayelekile busekela yonke imisebenzi Yakhe ejwayelekile esenyameni, kanti ubunkulunkulu bona benza umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe. Noma ngabe ubuntu noma ubunkulunkulu Bakhe, kokubili kuthobela intando kaBaba osezulwini. Ingqikithi kaKristu uMoya, okungukuthi, ubunkulunkulu. Ngalokho-ke, ingqikithi Yakhe ngekaNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe; le ngqikithi angeke iwuphazamise umsebenzi Wakhe, futhi akukho angakwenza okubulala umsebenzi Wakhe, futhi angeke akhulume amazwi aphambana nentando Yakhe. Ngakho-ke, uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu angeke awenze umsebenzi ozophazamisa ukuphatha Kwakhe. Yilokhu okumele bonke abantu bakuqonde. Umongo womsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele ukusindisa abantu ngenxa yokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu. Kanjalo, umsebenzi kaKristu ukusindisa abantu ngenxa yentando kaNkulunkulu. Ngokuthi uNkulunkulu uba yinyama, uyabazi ingqikithi Bakhe enyameni Yakhe, ngendlela yokuthi inyama Yakhe yanele ukwenza umsebenzi Wakhe. Ngalokho-ke, wonke umsebenzi kaMoya kaNkulunkulu uthathelwa indawo umsebenzi kaKristu ngesikhathi sokuba sesimweni somuntu, kanti futhi umongo wawo wonke umsebenzi ngesikhathi sokuba sesimweni somuntu ungumsebenzi kaKristu. Awukwazi ukuhlanganyelwa nomsebenzi wangenye inkathi. Futhi njengoba uNkulunkulu eba yinyama, usebenza ngokuba sesimweni somuntu; njengoba eza esenyameni, umsebenzi okumele awenze uwuphelelisa esenyameni. Noma ngabe uMoya kaNkulunkulu noma uKristu, konke kunguNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe, futhi wenza umsebenzi okumele awenze enze nenkonzo okumele ayenze.

192. Lowo onguNkulunkulu osenyameni uzoba nesiqu sikaNkulunkulu, lowo onguNkulunkulu osenyameni uzobonakala njengoNkulunkulu. Njengoba uNkulunkulu eba yinyama, uzoletha umsebenzi okumele awenze, njengoba uNkulunkulu eba yinyama, uzoveza lokhu ayikho, futhi uzokwazi ukuletha iqiniso kubantu, alethe ukuphila phezu kwabantu, akhombise abantu indlela. Inyama ayinaso isiqu sikaNkulunkulu ayiyena uNkulunkulu osenyameni; asingabazi kulokhu. Ukuphenya ukuthi ngabe uNkulunkulu wenyama osenyameni, abantu kumele bathole isimo asivezayo kanye namazwi awakhulumayo. Okungukuthi, ingabe nguNkulunkulu osenyameni noma cha, nokuthi ingabe yindlela yeqiniso noma cha, kumele kwahlulelwe ngesiqu Sakhe. Ngakho-ke, ekutholeni ukuthi yinyama kaNkulunkulu osenyameni, okubalulekile ukuthi unake usiqu Sakhe (umsebenzi Wakhe, amazwi Akhe, isimo Sakhe, nokunye okuningi), kunokubheka okubonakala ngaphandle. Uma abantu bebona ingaphandle kuphela, bese bengabheki usiqu Sakhe, lokho kuveza ukungazi komuntu.

193. Okuqondiwe ngokuthatha isimo somuntu kukaNkulunkulu ukuthi uNkulunkulu uphila futhi asebenze enyameni, uNkulunkulu engqikithini Yakhe uqobo uthatha umzimba wenyama, uba ngumuntu. Ukuphila Kwakhe esengumuntu nokusebenza kuhlukaniswa izigaba ezimbili. Esokuqala, yimpilo ayiphilayo ngaphambi kokuba enze inkonzo Yakhe. Uphila emndenini ojwayelekile wabantu, ebuntwini obujwayeleke kakhulu impela, elalela imithetho yokuziphatha kanye nemithetho ejwayelekile yokuphila komuntu, enezidingo zomuntu ezijwayelekile (ukudla, okokugqoka, indawo yokuhlala, ukulala), ubuthakathaka bomuntu obujwayelekile kanye nemizwa yomuntu ejwayelekile. Ngamanye amazwi, kulesi sigaba sokuqala uphila impilo engenabo ubunkulunkulu, enobuntu obujwayeleke ngokuphelele, owenza zonke izinto ezenziwa abantu abajwayelekile. Isigaba sesibili siwukuphila Kwakhe ngemva kokuqala ukwenza inkonzo Yakhe. Usaphila ebuntwini obujwayelekile enomzimba womuntu ojwayelekile, angawabonisi nakancane amandla angaphezu kwawemvelo. Nokho uphila kuphela ngenxa yenkonzo Yakhe, futhi kulesi sikhathi ubuntu Bakhe obujwayelekile bukhona ngokuphelele ukuze kwenzeke umsebenzi ojwayelekile wobuNkulunkulu Bakhe; ngoba ngaleso sikhathi ubuntu Bakhe obujwayelekile sebukhule baze bafika ezingeni lokuthi bungakwazi ukwenza inkonzo Yakhe. Ngakho-ke isigaba sesibili sokuphila Kwakhe siwukwenza inkonzo Yakhe esebuntwini obujwayelekile, kungukuphila kwakhe kokubili kobuntu obujwayelekile nobunkulunkulu obuphelele. Isizathu sokuthi, ngesikhathi sesigaba sokuqala sokuphila Kwakhe, uphila ebuntwini obujwayeleke ngokuphelele wukuthi ubuntu Bakhe busuke bungakalingani nomsebenzi wobuNkulunkulu obuphelele, kusuke kungakavuthwa; kuba kuphela ngemuva kokukhula kobuntu Bakhe, sebukwazi ukuthwala inkonzo Yakhe, lapho angaqalisa khona ukwenza inkonzo Yakhe. Njengoba Yena, eyinyama, edinga ukuthi akhule futhi avuthwe, isigaba sokuqala sokuphila Kwakhe siwubuntu obujwayelekile, kanti esigabeni sesibili, ngenxa yokuthi ubuntu Bakhe buyakwazi ukwenza umsebenzi Wakhe nokwenza inkonzo Yakhe, ukuphila kukaNkulunkulu esimweni somuntu akuphila ngesikhathi senkonzo Yakhe kuyikho kokubili okobuntu nobuNkulunkulu obuphelele. Ukuba kusukela ekuzalweni Kwakhe uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu waqala inkonzo Yakhe ngokuzimisela, enza izibonakaliso kanye nezimangaliso ezingaphezu kwamandla emvelo, khona-ke wayengeke abe nengqikithi yomzimba. Ngakho-ke, ubuntu Bakhe bukhona ngenxa yengqikithi yomzimba Wakhe; ngeke kube khona inyama ngaphandle kobuntu, futhi umuntu ongenabo ubuntu akayena umuntu. Ngale ndlela, ubuntu benyama kaNkulunkulu buyingxenye esemqoka yenyama kaNkulunkulu ethathe isimo somuntu. Ukuthi “lapho uNkulunkulu eba sesimweni somuntu usuke enobunkulunkulu ngokuphelele, futhi akayena nhlobo umuntu,” kuwukuhlambalaza, ngoba le nkulumo ayikho nhlobo, futhi yephula umgomo wokuba sesimweni somuntu. Ngisho nangemva kokuba eqale inkonzo Yakhe, usaphila ebuNkulunkulwini Bakhe obunomkhakha wangaphandle womuntu lapho enza umsebenzi Wakhe; ukuthi nje ngaleso sikhathi, ubuntu Bakhe bufeza kuphela injongo yokuvumela ubunkulunkulu Bakhe ukuba benze umsebenzi enyameni ejwayelekile. Ngakho umenzi womsebenzi ubunkulunkulu obuhlala ebuntwini Bakhe. UbuNkulunkulu Bakhe, hhayi ubuntu Bakhe obusebenzayo, kepha ubunkulunkulu obufihlwe ngaphakathi ebuntwini Bakhe; umsebenzi Wakhe wenziwa empeleni ngubunkulunkulu Bakhe obuphelele, hhayi ubuntu Bakhe. Kodwa umenzi womsebenzi yinyama Yakhe. Umuntu angathi ungumuntu futhi unguNkulunkulu, ngoba uNkulunkulu uba nguNkulunkulu ophila enyameni, ebukeka njengomuntu ngaphandle futhi enengqikithi yobuntu kodwa futhi nengqikithi kaNkulunkulu. Ngoba ungumuntu onobuNkulunkulu, ungaphezu kwabo bonke abantu abadaliwe, ngaphezu kwawo wonke umuntu ongenza umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu. Futhi phakathi kwalabo ababukeka njengaye, phakathi kwabo bonke abanobuntu, Nguye kuphela onguNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu uqobo Lwakhe—bonke abanye bangabantu abadaliwe. Nakuba bonke benobuntu, abantu abadaliwe akukho okunye abayikho ngaphandle kobuntu, kanti uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu Yena uhlukile: Enyameni Yakhe akanabo kuphela ubuntu kodwa okubaluleke nakakhulu unobunkulunkulu. Ubuntu Bakhe buyabonakala ngokubukeka kwangaphandle kwenyama Yakhe nasekuphileni Kwakhe kwansuku zonke kodwa ubuNkulunkulu Bakhe kunzima ukubuqonda. Ngenxa yokuthi ubuNkulunkulu Bakhe buboniswa kuphela enobuntu futhi abunawo amandla angaphezu kwemvelo njengoba abantu bebucabanga, kunzima kakhulu ukuba abantu bakubone. Ngisho nanamuhla kunzima kakhulu ukuthi abantu baqonde imfihlakalo yengqikithi yangempela kaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu. Nangemva kokukhuluma okungaka ngakho, ngilindele ukuba kube yimfihlakalo eningini lenu. Empeleni, le ndaba ilula kakhulu: Njengoba uNkulunkulu eba, ingqikithi Yakhe iyinhlanganisela yobuntu nobunkulunkulu. Le nhlanganisela ibizwa ngokuthi uNkulunkulu Uqobo Lwakhe, uNkulunkulu Uqobo Lwakhe emhlabeni.

194. Ubuntu bukaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu bukhona ukusekela umsebenzi wobuNkulunkulu ojwayelekile enyameni; ukucabanga Kwakhe kobuntu obujwayelekile kugcina ubuntu Bakhe obujwayelekile kanye nayo yonke imisebenzi Yakhe ayenza esemzimbeni. Umuntu angathi ukucabanga Kwakhe komuntu okujwayelekile kukhona ukuze kusekele umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu. Ukube le nyama ibingenawo umqondo womuntu ojwayelekile, uNkulunkulu ubengeke akwazi ukusebenza esesimweni somuntu, futhi lokho adinga ukukwenza enyameni bekungeke kufezeke. Nakuba uNkulunkulu osemzimbeni womuntu enomqondo womuntu ojwayelekile, umsebenzi Wakhe awonakaliswa ukucabanga komuntu; wenza umsebenzi ebuntwini obunomqondo ojwayelekile, ngaphansi kombandela wokuthi unobuntu obunomqondo hhayi ngokusebenzisa ukucabanga komuntu okujwayelekile. Kungakhathaleki ukuthi iphakeme kangakanani imicabango yenyama Yakhe, umsebenzi Wakhe awubunikezi ubufakazi bomqondo noma ukucabanga. Ngamanye amazwi, umsebenzi Wakhe awusuki engqondweni yenyama Yakhe kodwa ungukuboniswa ngqo komsebenzi wobuNkulunkulu ebuntwini Bakhe. Umsebenzi Wakhe wonke yinkonzo adinga ukuyifeza futhi akukho nokukodwa kuyo okusuka engqondweni Yakhe. Isibonelo, ukuphulukisa abagulayo, ukuxosha amadimoni nokubethelwa kwakungaphumi emqondweni Wakhe wobuntu, kwakungeke kwenziwe yinoma imuphi umuntu onomqondo womuntu. Ngokufanayo, umsebenzi wokunqoba wanamuhla uyinkonzo ekumele yenziwe uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu, kodwa akuwona umsebenzi wentando yomuntu, kungumsebenzi ubunkulunkulu Bakhe okumele buwenze, umsebenzi ongenakwenziwa umuntu osesimweni somuntu. Ngakho uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu kumele abe nomqondo womuntu ojwayelekile, abe nobuntu obujwayelekile ngoba kumele enze umsebenzi Wakhe ebuntwini enomqondo ojwayelekile. Lokhu yingqikithi yomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu, ingqikithi uqobo kaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu.

Ngaphambi kokuba uJesu enze umsebenzi, wayemane ephila ebuntwini Bakhe obujwayelekile. Akekho owayengasho ukuthi wayenguNkulunkulu, akekho owathola ukuthi wayenguNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu; abantu babemazi njengendoda ejwayelekile ngokuphelele. Ubuntu Bakhe obuvamile obujwayeleke ngempela kwakuwubufakazi bokuthi uNkulunkulu wayethathe isimo somuntu nokuthi iNkathi yoMusa kwakuyisikhathi somsebenzi kaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu, hhayi inkathi yomsebenzi kaMoya. Kwakuwubufakazi bokuthi uMoya kaNkulunkulu wawubonakaliswe ngokuphelele enyameni, ukuthi ngenkathi uNkulunkulu esesimweni somuntu, inyama Yakhe yayizokwenza wonke umsebenzi kaMoya. UKristu onobuntu obujwayelekile uyinyama okuyilapho uMoya ubonakala khona, unobuntu obujwayelekile, umqondo kanye nokucabanga komuntu okujwayelekile. “Ukubonakalisa” kusho ukuthi uNkulunkulu uba ngumuntu, uMoya uba yinyama; ukukubeka kucace, kuba yilapho uNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe ehlala enyameni enobuntu obujwayelekile, futhi ngayo, eveza umsebenzi Wakhe wobuNkulunkulu—yilokho okushiwo ukubonakala noma ukuthatha isimo somzimba womuntu.

195. Ubuntu bukaKristu bubuswa ubunkulunkulu Bakhe. Yize noma esenyameni, ubuntu Bakhe abufani ncamashi nalobo bomuntu wenyama. Unesimo Sakhe esihlukile, naso futhi sibuswa ubunkulunkulu Bakhe. UbuNkulunkulu Bakhe abunabuthaka; ubuthaka bukaKristu buchaza lobo obobuntu Bakhe. Ngezinga elithile, lobu buthaka bucindezela ubunkulunkulu Bakhe, kodwa imikhawulo efana nale iphakathi komthamo nesikhathi esithile, futhi ayinamkhawulo. Uma kufika isikhathi sokwenza umsebenzi Wakhe wobunkulunkulu, wenziwa ngaphandle kokunaka ubuntu Bakhe. Ubuntu bukaKristu buholwa ubunkulunkulu Bakhe ngokuphelele. Ngaphandle kwempilo Yakhe ejwayelekile yobuntu Bakhe, konke okunye ukwenza kobuntu Bakhe kuthonywa, kuthintwe futhi kuqondiswe ubunkulunkulu Bakhe. Yize uKristu enobuntu, abuwuphazamisi umsebenzi wobunkulunkulu Bakhe. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi ubuntu bukaKristu buholwa ubunkulunkulu Bakhe; yize ubuntu Bakhe bungavuthiwe endleleni aziphatha ngayo phambi kwabanye, akuwuthinti umsebenzi ojwayelekile wobunkulunkulu Bakhe. Uma ngithi ubuntu Bakhe abonakaliswanga, ngisho ukuthi ubuntu bukaKristu bungaqondiswa ngqo ubunkulunkulu Bakhe, nokuthi unobuhlakani obuphezulu kunalobo bomuntu ojwayelekile. Ubuntu Bakhe bufanele ukuholwa ubunkulunkulu obusemsebenzini Wakhe; Ubuntu Bakhe bukwazi kakhulu ukuveza umsebenzi wobunkulunkulu, futhi buyakwazi kakhulu ukuthobela umsebenzi ofana nalowo. Njengoba uNkulunkulu esebenza enyameni, akakhohlwa umsebenzi okumele wenziwe umuntu osenyameni; uyakwazi ukudumisa uNkulunkulu ezulwini ngenhliziyo eneqiniso. Unengqikithi kaNkulunkulu, kanti ubuyena yilobu bukaNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe. Ukuthi nje uze emhlabeni waba umuntu odaliwe, waba nomzimba womuntu odaliwe, futhi manje unobuntu ayengenabo ngaphambilini; uyakwazi ukudumisa uNkulunkulu ezulwini. Lokhu ukuba uNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe futhi uhlukile kumuntu. Ubuyena bunguNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe. Kungokwenyama okwenza ukuthi adumise uNkulunkulu; ngakho-ke, amazwi athi “uKristu udumisa uNkulunkulu ezulwini” awalona iphutha. Akufunayo kumuntu ubuyena; usekufezile konke lokho akucelile kumuntu ngaphambi kokucela lokhu kubo. Angeke afune izinto kubantu ebe Yena engazenzi, ngoba konke lokhu kwenza ubuyena. Ngale kokuthi uwenza kanjani umsebenzi Wakhe, angeke angamlaleli uNkulunkulu. Noma ngabe yini ayicela kubantu, akukho okungaphezu kwalokho umuntu akwazi ukukwenza. Konke akwenzayo ukwenza intando kaNkulunkulu futhi kungenxa yokuphatha Kwakhe. Ubunkulunkulu bukaKristu bungaphezulu kwabo bonke abantu, ngakho-ke unegunya phezu kwezidalwa zonke. Leli gunya lingubunkulunkulu Bakhe, isimo nobuyena bukaNkulunkulu uqobo, okusho ubuyena. Ngalokho, noma ngabe ubuntu Bakhe bujwayeleke kangakanani, kungephikwe ukuthi unobuyena obunguNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe; noma ngabe ukuphi uyakhuluma futhi noma kanjani uthobela intando kaNkulunkulu, angeke kuthiwe akayena uNkulunkulu uqobo.

196. Indodana yomuntu esesimweni somuntu yaveza ubunkulunkulu bukaNkulunkulu ngokobuntu Bakhe futhi yadlulisa intando kaNkulunkulu esintwini. Futhi ngokubonakaliswa kwentando kanye nesimo sikaNkulunkulu, Yena waphinda waveza kubantu uNkulunkulu ongabonakali noma ongathinteki emhlabeni wakwamoya. Lokhu okwabonwa ngabantu kwakunguNkulunkulu uqolo Lwakhe, ethinteka futhi enenyama namathambo. Ngakho iNdodana yomuntu esesimweni somuntu yenza izinto ezifana nobuyena Bakhe, ukuma Kwakhe, isithombe Sakhe, isimo Sakhe kanye nalokho Yena anakho nayikho, yaqina futhi yenziwa isimo somuntu. Noma ngabe ukubonakala kwengaphandle kweNdodana yomuntu kwaba nemikhawulo mayelana nomfanekiso kaNkulunkulu, ingqikithi Yakhe kanye nalokhu anakho nayikho kwakwazi ngokupheleleyo ukumela ubunjalo nokuma—kwakunokwahlukana ngokwesimo sokubonakaliswa. Noma ngabe ubuntu beNdodana yomuntu noma ubunkulunkulu Bayo, ngeke siphike ukuthi Yona yamela ubunjalo nokuma kukaNkulunkulu. Ngalesi sikhathi, nokho, uNkulunkulu wasebenza ngenyama, wakhuluma njengokwenyama, futhi wama phambi kwesintu ngobunjalo nangokuma kweNdodana yomuntu, futhi lokhu kwanika abantu ithuba lokuhlangana nokuzizwela amazwi eqiniso kaNkulunkulu phakathi kwesintu. Yaphinda yavumela abantu ukuba babe nokuqonda ubunkulunkulu Bakhe kanye nobukhulu Bakhe phakathi kokuzithoba, kanye nokuzuza ukuqonda kwangaphambili kanye nencazelo yangaphambili yeqiniso kanye noqobo lukaNkulunkulu. Nakuba umsebenzi owafezwa iNkosi uJesu, izindlela Zakhe zokusebenza, nange ndlela ayekhuluma ngayo eyabe yahlukile kuleyo yomuntu woqobo kaNkulunkulu emhlabeni wakwamoya, yonke into Ngaye yamela uNkulunkulu uqobo ngokweqiniso abantu ababengakaze bayibone ngaphambili—lokhu ngeke kuphikwe! Okusho ukuthi, noma ngabe uNkulunkulu uvela ngasiphi isimo, noma ukhuluma ngayiphi indlela Yena akhuluma ngayo, noma ngamuphi umfanekiso abhekana ngawo nesintu, uNkulunkulu akameli lutho kodwa Yena uqobo Lwakhe. Yena angeke amele umuntu—angeke amele noma imuphi umuntu okhohlakele. UNkulunkulu unguNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe, futhi lokhu akusoze kwaphikwa.

197. UNkulunkulu wokoqobo uqobo okokhulunywa Ngaye namuhla usebenza ebuntwini kanye nasebunkulunkulwini kokubili. Ngokubukeka kukaNkulunkulu wokoqobo, umsebenzi Wakhe wobuntu ojwayelekile kanye nomsebenzi Wakhe ophelele wobunkulunkulu uyafezeka. Ubuntu nobunkulunkulu Bakhe buhlangene ndawonye, futhi umsebenzi wakho kokubili ufezeka ngamazwi; noma ngabe kusebuntwini noma ebunkulunkulwini, ukhuluma amazwi. Lapho uNkulunkulu esebenza esintwini, ukhuluma ulimi lwesintu, ukuze abantu baxhumane futhi baqonde. Amazwi Akhe akhulunywa ngokucacile, futhi alula ukuwaqonda, ngale ndlela yokuthi angahlinzekwa abantu bonke; kungakhathaleki noma laba bantu banolwazi noma bafunde kancane, bonke bangawathola amazwi kaNkulunkulu. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ebunkulunkulwini nawo wenziwa ngamazwi, kodwa ugcwele ukuhlinzeka, ugcwele ukuphila, awungcolisiwe imiqondo yobuntu, awufaki ukukhetha kobuntu, futhi awunayo imikhawulo yobuntu, ungaphandle kwemingcele yobuntu obujwayelekile; wona, futhi, wenziwa enyameni, kodwa ungukuvezwa kukaMoya ngqo. Uma abantu bemukela kuphela umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ebuntwini, bayoziqoqela emkhawulweni othile, futhi bayodinga ukusetshenzwa, ukuthenwa, kanye nokuqondiswa okungapheli ukuze kube khona uguquko oluncane kubo. Ngaphandle komsebenzi noma ubukhona bukaMoya oNgcwele, nokho, bayohlala bebuyela ezindleleni zabo ezindala; kungomsebenzi wobunkulunkulu kuphela lapho lezi zifo kanye nokuntula kungalungiswa, yilapho kuphela abantu bengenziwa baphelele. Esikhundleni sokusetshenzwa nokuthenwa okuqhubekayo, okudingekayo ukuhlinzekwa okuhle, kusetshenziswa amazwi ukulungisa amaphutha onke, ukusebenzisa amazwi ukuveza sonke isimo sabantu, ukusebenzisa amazwi ukuqondisa izimpilo zabo, ukukhuluma kwabo, ukwenza kwabo konke, ukuveza izinhloso zabo kanye nokukhuthazeka; lona ngumsebenzi wangempela kaNkulunkulu wokoqobo. Futhi ngalokho, esimweni sakho sengqondo ngoNkulunkulu wokoqobo kumele uzithobe kukho kokubili phambi kobuntu Bakhe, umazise futhi umvume, okunye futhi, kumele wamukele futhi ulalele umsebenzi namazwi obunkulunkulu. Ukubonakala kukaNkulunkulu enyameni kusho ukuthi wonke umsebenzi namazwi kaMoya kaNkulunkulu kwenziwa ngobuntu Bakhe obujwayelekile, nangobuntu Bakhe enyameni. Ngamanye amazwi, uMoya kaNkulunkulu ukuqondisa kokubili, umsebenzi Wakhe wobuntu bese futhi wenza nomsebenzi wobunkulunkulu enyameni, futhi kuNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu ungakwazi ukukubona kokubili, umsebenzi kaNkululunkulu esintwini kanye nomsebenzi Wakhe onobunkulunkulu obuphelele. Lokhu ngukubaluleka kwangempela okungokoqobo ngokwengeziwe kokubonakala kukaNkulunkulu wokoqobo esenyameni. Uma ungakubona lokhu ngokucacile, uyokwazi ukuhlanganisa izingxenye ezehlukene zikaNkulunkulu, futhi uyoyeka ukubeka ukubaluleka okukhulu kakhulu emsebenzini Wakhe ebunkulunkulwini, kanye nokunganaki umsebenzi Wakhe ebuntwini, futhi angeke wenze ngokwedlulele, noma uthathe izindlela eziphambukayo. Kukho konke, incazelo kaNkulunkulu wokoqobo ukuthi umsebenzi wobuntu Bakhe kanye nowobunkulunkulu Bakhe, njengalokhu uqondiswa uMoya, uvezwa enyameni Yakhe, ukuze abantu babone ukuthi ucacile futhi uyaphila, ungowokoqobo, futhi ungowangempela.

198. Amandla kaMoya kaNkulunkulu anegunya phezu kwendalo yonke. Inyama enengqikithi kaNkulunkulu nayo inegunya, kodwa uNkulunkulu osenyameni angenza wonke umsebenzi olalela intando kaBaba Osezulwini. Lokhu ngeke kutholwe noma kuqondwe umuntu. UNkulunkulu uqobo unamandla, kodwa inyama Yakhe ingathobela igunya Lakhe. Lokhu yincazelo ejulile yamazwi athi: “UKristu uthobela intando kaNkulunkulu uBaba.” UNkulunkulu unguMoya futhi angenza umsebenzi wokusindisa, njengoba uNkulunkulu engaba umuntu. Kodwa-ke, uNkulunkulu uqobo wenza umsebenzi Wakhe; akaphazamisi noma agxambukele, futhi akawenzi umsebenzi ophikisanayo, ngoba ingqikithi yomsebenzi owenziwa uMoya nowenziwa inyama uyafana. Noma ngabe uMoya noma inyama, kokubili kwenzelwe ukugcwalisa intando eyodwa nokuphatha umsebenzi ofanayo. Yize noma uMoya nenyama kunezinto ezingafani, ingqikithi bako buyafana; kokubili kunongqikithi bukaNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe, kanye nobuNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe. UNkulunkulu uqobo akanakho ukungalaleli; ingqikithi Yakhe ilungile. Uyikho konke okuhle nokulungile, futhi uwuthando lonke. Noma esenyameni, uNkulunkulu akenzi into yokungalaleli uNkulunkulu uBaba. Ngisho noma ngabe kusho ukuthi akanikele ngempilo Yakhe, uzokwenza ngenhliziyo ekhululekile angafuni ukukhetha okunye. UNkulunkulu akanakho ukuzilungisa nokuzibona ebalulekile, noma ukuzidla nokuzikhukhumeza; akanakho ukungathembeki. Konke lokhu okungalaleli uNkulunkulu kuqhamuka kuSathane; uSathane nguye umsuka wobubi nenkohlakalo. Isizathu esenza ukuthi umuntu abe nezici ezifana nezikaSathane ukuthi umuntu wonakaliswe waphinde wasetshenzwa nguSathane. UKristu akonakalisiwe nguSathane, yikho enezimpawu zikaNkulunkulu futhi azikho ezikaSathane. Noma ngabe umsebenzi unzima kangakanani noma inyama ibuthaka kangakanani, uNkulunkulu, esaphila enyameni, angeke enze okuzophazamisa umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uqobo, ingaphathwa eyokushiya intando kaNkulunkulu uBaba ngokungalaleli. Angancamela ukuzwa izinhlungu zenyama kunokuthi aphambane nentando kaNkulunkulu uBaba; kunjengoba uJesu asho emkhulekweni. “Baba, uma kungenzeka, mayidlule le ndebe Kimi; kodwa kungabi ngentando Yami, kodwa kube ngentando Yakho.” Umuntu uyokhetha, kodwa uKristu angeke akhethe. Yize enomfanekiso kaNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe, kodwa usafuna ukwenza intando kaNkulunkulu uBaba, agcwalisele lokhu uNkulunkulu uBaba amethembe ngakho, ngasohlangothini lwenyama. Lokhu into umuntu angeke akwazi ukuyenza. Lokhu okuphuma kuSathane akunangqikithi kaNkulunkulu, kunokungalaleli nokuphikisa uNkulunkulu. Angeke kumlalele ngokuphelele uNkulunkulu, futhi ngeke kuyithobele intando kaNkulunkulu. Bonke abantu ngaphandle kukaKristu bangakwenza lokhu okuphikisa uNkulunkulu, futhi akekho noyedwa ongamukela umsebenzi athenjwe uNkulunkulu ngawo; akekho noyedwa ongakwazi ukubona ukuphatha kukaNkulunkulu njengomsebenzi wabo okumele bawenze. Ukuthobela intando kaNkulunkulu uBaba kuyingqikithi kaKristu; ukungalaleli uNkulunkulu kufana noSathane. Lezi zinto zombili azihambelani, futhi noma ubani onalezi zici zikaSathane angeke abizwe ngoKristu. Isizathu esenza ukuthi umuntu angakwazi ukwenza umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu esikhundleni Sakhe yingoba umuntu akanaso nesisodwa isimo sengqikithi kaNkulunkulu. Umuntu usebenzela uNkulunkulu ngoba efuna ukuzuza okwakhe nekusasa lakhe, kodwa uKristu usebenzela ukwenza intando kaNkulunkulu uBaba.

199. Nakuba uNkulunkulu osemzimbeni uyafana ncamashi nabantu, wafunda ulwazi lwabantu futhi wakhuluma ulimi lwabantu, futhi kwesinye isikhathi uveza imibono Yakhe ngezindlela zesintu nangemisho, ngendlela abona ngayo abantu, ingqikithi yezinto, nange ndlela abantu abakhohlakele ababona ngayo isintu kanye nobunjalo bezinto akufani. Indlela abuka ngayo kanye nokuphakama kwalapho emi khona kuyinto angenakufinyelela kuyo umuntu okhohlakele. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi uNkulunkulu uyiqiniso, inyama ayigqokile inobunjalo bukaNkulunkulu, futhi imicabango Yakhe kanye nalokho okuvezwa ubuntu Bakhe, nakho kuyiqiniso. Kubantu abakhohlakele, lokhu akukhuluma esenyameni kuwukuhlinzekwa kweqiniso kanye nokuphila. Lokhu kuhlinzekwa akusikhona okomuntu oyedwa, kodwa okwesintu sonke. Ngokuba noma imuphi umuntu okhohlakele, enhliziyweni yakhe kukhona kuphela labo bantu abambalwa abahambisana naye. Yilabo bantu kuphela abakhathalelayo, akhathazekile ngabo. Uma kuvela inhlekelele ucabanga kuqala ngezingane zakhe, lowo ashade naye, noma abazali kanti umuntu othanda ukusiza, angacabanga ngesihlobo noma umngani olungile; uyacabanga ngabanye? Ngeke! Ngoba abantu, emva kwakho konke, bangabantu, futhi bangakwazi ukubheka izinto zonke kuphela ngasohlangothini nokuphakama komuntu. Nokho, uNkulunkulu osemzimbeni uhluke kakhulu kumuntu okhohlakele. Noma ngabe ujwayeleke kangakanani, noma uvame kangakanani, noma uphansi kangakanani uNkulunkulu osemzimbeni, ngisho noma bambukela phansi kangakanani abantu, imicabango Yakhe, nesimo sengqondo Yakhe ngesintu, kuyizinto umuntu angeke aze abe nazo, futhi akekho umuntu ongakulingisa. Uyohlala njalo ebheka isintu ngobukhona kanye nomqondo kaNkulunkulu, akasoze abona umuntu ngokubuka kwezinga lomuntu ojwayelekile nje, futhi nange ndlela yomuntu okhohlakele. Uma abantu bebheka isintu, babuka ngokubona kwabantu, futhi basebenzisa izinto ezifana nolwazi lwabantu kanye nemigomo yabantu kanye nabakufundile njengesilinganiso. Lokhu kungaphakathi kwesilinganiso salokho abantu abangakubona ngamehlo abo; kungaphakathi kwesilinganiso esingafezwa umuntu okhohlakeleyo. Uma uNkulunkulu ebheka isintu, ubuka ngokubona kobunkulunkulu, futhi usebenzisa ingqikithi yakhe kanye nalokhu anakho nayikho njengesilinganiso. Lesi silinganiso simbandakanya izinto ezingabonwa ngabantu, yilapho uNkulunkulu osemzimbeni kanye nabantu abakhohlakele bephambana kakhulu. Lo mehluko wenziwa ubunjalo babantu nobunjalo bukaNkulunkulu, yilobu bunjalo obenza ukubona kwabo nokuma kwabo kanye nangendlela nokuphakama ababona ngakho izinto.

200. Ukuthi ngabe unalo ulwazi ngalokho owake wabhekana nakho ngaphambilini okuphathelene nabantu okuthi uphila kanjani futhi ubhekana kanjani nomndeni wakho kungabonakala kulokho okubonakalisayo, kube ngeke uze ubone emsebenzini kaNkulunkulu esesimweni somuntu ukuthi ngabe Yena uke wabhekana nabantu yini. Wazi kahle kamhlophe ingqikithi yomuntu, angakwazi ukudalula zonke izinhlobo zemisebenzi ephathelene nezinhlobo zabantu. Uphuma phambili kakhulu ekudaluleli isimo sokukhohlakala somuntu kanye nokuziphatha kabi. Akaphili phakathi kwabantu abaphila impilo yasemhlabeni, kodwa wazi kahle ngesimo semvelo sabantu basemhlabeni kanye nayo yonke inkohlakalo yabantu abaphila impilo yasemhlabeni. Unjalo nje. Yize engabhekani nomhlaba, uyayazi imithetho yokubhekana nomhlaba, ngoba usiqonda kahle isimo somuntu. Unolwazi ngomsebenzi kaMoya ongeke ubonwe ngamehlo omuntu futhi ongeke kuzwiwe izindlebe zomuntu, namuhla kanye nangaphambilini. Lokhu kufaka phakathi ukuhlakanipha okungesiyo imfundiso yokuphila nezimangaliso okulukhuni kubantu ukuziqonda. Yingakho eyilokhu ayikho, kwenziwe kwavuleleka kubantu futhi kufihlakele kubantu. Lokho akuvezayo akusikho lokho umuntu onokwehlukile ayikho, kodwa yilokho okuyigalelo elitholakalayo kanye nesimo sikaMoya. Akahambi emhlabeni kodwa wazi konke okukuwo. Uxhumana “nezazi zomlando” ababengenalwazi noma ukukhanyiseleka, kodwa ukhipha amazwi aphakeme kunolwazi futhi angaphezu kwabantu abakhulu. Uphila phakathi kwabantu abandikindiki abangenabo ubuntu futhi abangaziqondi izivumelwano zabantu kanye nempilo, kodwa angacela isintu ukuthi siphile ngobuntu obujwayelekile, khona manjalo aveze isisekelo kanye nobuntu obuphansi besintu. Konke lokhu kuyilokho ayikho, kungaphezu kwalokho umuntu wenyama negazi ayikho. Kuye, asikho isidingo sokuthi ubhekane nempilo ethinta abantu exakile, nezima nengcolile ukuze wenze umsebenzi adinga ukuthi uwenza futhi udalula ingqikithi yenkohlakalo yesintu. Impilo yokuphila nabantu engcolile ayiyingcwelisi inyama. Umsebenzi kanye namazwi Akhe kudalula ukungalaleli komuntu futhi akuhlinzeki umuntu ngolwazi lwalokho ake abhekana nakho ngaphambilini kanye nezifundo zokubhekana nomhlaba. Akadingi ukwenza uphenyo ngomphakathi noma ngomndeni womuntu uma enika umuntu ukuphila. Ukudalula nokwahlulela umuntu akusikho ukuveza ulwazi Lwakhe ngalokho Ake abhekana nakho ngaphambilini enyameni Yakhe; kuwukudalula ukungalungi komuntu emuva kokwazi ukungalaleli komuntu kwesikhathi eside kanye nokubekezelela inkohlakalo yomuntu. Umsebenzi awenzayo ukudalula isimo Sakhe kubantu nokuveza ubuyena. Nguye kuphela ongenza lokhu, akusiyo into engenziwa umuntu wenyama negazi.

201. Umsebenzi nokuvezwa uKristu kuveza ingqikithi Bakhe. Uyakwazi ukuqeda ngenhliziyo eneqiniso konke lokhu athenjwe ngakho. Uyakwazi ukudumisa uNkulunkulu osezulwini ngenhliziyo eneqiniso, futhi ngenhliziyo eneqiniso afune intando kaNkulunkulu uBaba. Konke lokhu kuvezwa ingqikithi Yakhe. Kanjalo nokwembuleka kwendalo kuvezwa ingqikithi Yakhe; isizathu sokuthi ukwembuleka Kwakhe kwendalo kubizwe kanjena ukuthi lokhu akuvezayo akukhona okokufanekisa, noma umphumela wokufundiswa umuntu, noma umphumela weminyaka eminingi elungiswa ngumuntu. Akazange akufunde noma azihlobise ngakho; kunalokho, kuyinto engaphathi Kuye. Abantu bangawuphika umsebenzi Wakhe, lokhu akuvezayo, ubuntu Bakhe, kanye nayo yonke impilo yobuntu Bakhe obujwayelekile, kodwa akekho ongaphika ukuthi ukhonza uNkulunkulu osezulwini ngenhliziyo eneqiniso; akekho ongaphika ukuthi uzile ukuzofeza intando kaBaba wasezulwini, akekho futhi ongaphika ubuqotho afuna ngabo uNkulunkulu uBaba. Yize isithombe Sakhe singazithokozisi izinzwa, inkulumo Yakhe ingenawo umoya ongaphezu kokuvamile, nomsebenzi Wakhe unganyakazisi umhlaba noma unyakazise izulu njengoba umuntu ecabanga, ngempela unguKristu, ofeza intando kaBaba osezulwini ngenhliziyo eneqiniso, othobela ngokugcwele uBaba osezulwini, futhi othoba kuze kube sekufeni. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi ingqikithi Yakhe yingqikithi kaKristu. Kunzima ukuthi abantu balikholwe leli qiniso kodwa lona likhona impela. Uma inkonzo kaKristu isigcwalisiwe ngokupheleleyo, abantu bazokwazi ukubona emsebenzini Wakhe ukuthi isimo Sakhe nobuyena bumele isimo nobuyena bukaNkulunkulu ezulwini. Ngaleso sikhathi, ukusongwa komsebenzi Wakhe kuzoqinisekisa ukuthi ngempela uyinyama Izwi eliba yiyo, futhi engafani nenyama negazi lomuntu.

202. UNkulunkulu waba inyama eyabizwa ngokuthi uKristu, futhi okuwuKristu okwazi ukunika abantu iqiniso elibizwa ngokuthi uNkulunkulu. Akukho okukhulu ngalokhu, ngoba uqukethe isiqu sikaNkulunkulu, futhi uqukethe isimo sikaNkulunkulu, kanye nobuhlakani emsebenzini Wakhe, umuntu angekuthole. Labo abazibiza ngoKristu, kepha bengakwazi ukwenza umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, bangabakhohlisi. UKristu akasikho nje ukubonakaliswa kukaNkulunkulu emhlabeni, kodwa futhi uyinyama embethwe uNkulunkulu njengoba ephethe futhi eqedela umsebenzi Wakhe kubantu. Le nyama akusiyo leyo endawo yayo ingathathwa yinoma imuphi umuntu, kodwa yileyo engathwala umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ngendlela egculisayo emhlabeni, futhi ibonakalise isimo sikaNkulunkulu, imele uNkulunkulu kahle, futhi inike umuntu ukuphila. Esikhathini esingatheni, labo abazenza uKristu bayowa, ngoba yize bethi banguKristu, akukho abanakho okuwumgogodla kaKristu. Ngakho ngithi ubuqiniso ngoKristu ngeke buchazwe umuntu, kodwa kuphendulwa futhi kunqunywe uNkulunkulu Uqobo.

203. Inyama eyembethwe uMoya kaNkulunkulu yinyama kaNkulunkulu uqobo. UMoya kaNkulunkulu uphakeme; unamandla onke, ungcwele, futhi ulungile. Ngokufanayo, inyama Yakhe nayo iphakeme, inamandla onke, ingcwele, futhi ilungile. Inyama enjalo ingenza kuphela lokho okulungile nokuzuzisa isintu, lokho okungcwele, okukhazimulayo nokunamandla; akakwazi ukwenza noma yini emelene neqiniso noma emelene nobuqotho nobulungiswa, ingasaphathwa eyokwenza noma yini ekhaphela uMoya kaNkulunkulu. UMoya kaNkulunkulu ungcwele, futhi ngaleyo ndlela inyama Yakhe ayikhohlakaliswa nguSathane; inyama Yakhe inengqikithi eyehlukile enyameni yomuntu. Ngoba ngumuntu, hhayi uNkulunkulu, okhohlakaliswa nguSathane; uSathane ngeke akwazi ukukhohlakalisa inyama kaNkulunkulu. Ngakho, nakuba umuntu noKristu bahlala endaweni efanayo, ngumuntu kuphela ongenwa, asetshenziswe, futhi abanjwe uSathane. Ngokwehlukile, uKristu akangenwa naphakade ukukhohlakala kukaSathane, ngoba uSathane ngeke aze akwazi ukukhuphukela endaweni ephezu kwakho konke, futhi ngeke aze akwazi ukusondela kuNkulunkulu. Namuhla, kufanele nonke niqonde ukuthi yisintu kuphela, esikhohlakaliswe nguSathane, esingikhaphelayo. Ukukhaphela akusoze kwaba yinkinga ebandakanya uKristu nakancane.

204. UNkulunkulu waba inyama ngenxa yokuthi ihloso yomsebenzi wakhe akuwona umoya kaSathane, noma into engaphili, kodwa umuntu, oyinyama owonakaliswe uSathane. Lokho kungenxa kanye yokuthi inyama yomuntu yonakalisiwe ukuthi uNkulunkulu wenze umuntu wenyama injongo yomsebenzi Wakhe; ngaphezu kwalokho, ngenxa yokuthi umuntu uyinjongo yenkohlakalo, wenze umuntu waba iyona kuphela injongo yomsebenzi Wakhe kuzo zonke izigaba zomsebenzi Wakhe wensindiso. Umuntu uyisidalwa esifayo, uyinyama negazi, futhi uNkulunkulu Nguye Yedwa ongasindisa umuntu. Ngale ndlela, uNkulunkulu kumele abe inyama enakho konke umuntu anakho ukuze umsebenzi Wakhe, ukuze futhi umsebenzi Wakhe ube nemithelela engcono. UNkulunkulu kumele abe inyama ukuze enze umsebenzi Wakhe, ngenxa kanye yokuthi umuntu uyinyama, futhi akakwazi ukunqoba isono nokuzehlukanisa nenyama. Nakuba ukwakheka nesiqu sikaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu kwehluka kakhulu ekwakhekeni nesiqu somuntu, kodwa ukubukeka kuyefana nokomuntu, unokubukeka komuntu ovamile, futhi uphila ukuphila komuntu ojwayelekile futhi labo abambonayo ngeke babone mehluko kumuntu ojwayelekile. Le ndlela yokubukeka evamile nobuntu obuvamile kwanele Kuye ukuze enze umsebenzi Wakhe wobunkulunkulu ebuntwini obuvamile. Inyama Yakhe imvumela ukuba enze umsebenzi Wakhe ebuntwini obuvamile, bese imsiza ukuthi enze umsebenzi Wakhe phakathi kwesintu, futhi ubuntu Bakhe obuvamile, phezu kwalokho, bumsiza ukuba enze umsebenzi wensindiso phakathi kwabantu. Nakuba ubuntu bakhe obujwayelekile bubangele ukudideka okukhulu kubantu, ukudideka okunjalo akuwuphazamisanga kakhulu umthelela ojwayelekile womsebenzi Wakhe kubantu. Ngamafuphi, umsebenzi wenyama Yakhe evamile umzuzisa kakhulu umuntu. Nakuba abantu abaningi bengabamukeli ubuntu Bakhe obuvamile, umsebenzi Wakhe usengathela, futhi le mithelela itholakala ngenxa yobuntu obuvamile. Kulokhu akunakungabaza. Ngomsebenzi Wakhe esesimweni somuntu, umuntu uzuza izinto eziphindwe kashumi noma kaninginingi kunemicabango ekhona phakathi kwabantu ngobuntu bakhe obejwayelekile, futhi yonke le micabango ekugcineni izogwinywa umsebenzi Wakhe. Futhi umthelela umsebenzi Wakhe osuwufezile, okusho ukuthi, ulwazi umuntu analo Ngaye, uyedlula kude imicabango yomuntu Ngaye. Akunakwenzeka ukuba uwubone ngeso lengqondo noma uwulinganise umsebenzi awenza esesimweni somuntu, ngoba inyama Yakhe ayifani neyanoma imuphi umuntu wenyama, nakuba ingxenye engaphandle ifana ncamashi, isiqu asifani. Inyama Yakhe yenza ibe miningi imicabango kubantu mayelana noNkulunkulu, kodwa inyama Yakhe ingenza umuntu athole ulwazi oluningi, futhi inganqoba noma imuphi umuntu onengxenye efanayo yangaphandle. Ngoba akayena nje umuntu kuphela, kodwa unguNkulunkulu onengxenye engaphandle yomuntu, futhi akekho ongazi imfihlakalo noma ongamqonda ngokugcwele.

208. Okuwukuphela kwesizathu esenza uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu abe inyama, kungenxa yezidingo zomuntu owonakalisiwe. Kungenxa yezidingo zomuntu hhayi ezikaNkulunkulu, futhi konke anikela ngakho nokuhlupheka Kwakhe kungenxa yesintu, akukhona okwenzuzo kaNkulunkulu uqobo. Abukho ubuhle nobubi nemiklomelo kuNkulunkulu; akufanele avune isivuno sesikhathi esizayo, ngaphandle kwalokho ayevele ekweletwa khona. Konke akwenzayo nanikela ngakho ngenxa yesintu akakwenzeli ukuba athole imiklomelo emikhulu kodwa ukwenzela isintu kuphela. Nakuba umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu enyameni ubandakanya ubunzima obuningi obungacabangeki, imiphumela okugcina kuba nayo iyidlula kude leyo yomsebenzi owenziwa uMoya ngokuqondile. Umsebenzi wenyama unobunzima obukhulu, futhi inyama ayinakuba nesiqu esifana nesikaMoya; ngeke ikwazi ukuthwala izenzo ezifana nezoMoya, mancane kakhulu amathuba okuthi ibe negunya elifanayo nelikaMoya. Kodwa ingqikithi yomsebenzi wale nyama enganakekile iyedlula kude eyomsebenzi owenziwe uqondiswa uMoya, nale enyama uqobo iyimpendulo yazo zonke izidingo zomuntu. Kulabo abazosindiswa, umsebenzi kaMoya uphansi kakhulu kunowenyama: Umsebenzi kaMoya ukwazi ukuhlanganisa indawo yonke, zonke izindaba, imifula, amachibi, nezilwandle, kodwa umsebenzi wenyama uthela kahle kuwo wonke umuntu othintane nomuntu wenyama. Okungaphezu kwalokho, inyama kaNkulunkulu esesimweni esithintekayo umuntu angayiqonda futhi ayethembe kangcono, futhi ingajulisa ulwazi lomuntu ngoNkulunkulu, futhi ingashiya kumuntu ukuqonda okubanzi ngezenzo zangempela zikaNkulunkulu. Umsebenzi kaMoya umbozwe emfihlakalweni, kunzima ngomuntu ofayo ukuthi awuqonde, futhi kunzima nakakhulu kubo ukuthi bawubone, ngakho babambelela emicabangweni engasho lutho. Nokho, umsebenzi wenyama ujwayelekile, futhi usekelwe ezintweni ezingokoqobo, futhi uqukethe ukuhlakanipha okucebile, uyiqiniso elingabonakala ngisho nangeso lenyama lomuntu; umuntu angabubona ngokoqobo ubuhlakani bomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, asikho isidingo sokuthi asebenzise kakhulu iso lakhe lengqondo. Lokhu ukunemba nokubaluleka kwangempela komsebenzi kaNkulunkulu enyameni. UMoya ungenza kuphela izinto ezingabonakali ngeso lomuntu futhi okunzima kuye ukuthi azibone ngeso lengqondo, isibonelo, ukukhanyiselwa uMoya, ukunyakaza kukaMoya, ukuqondiswa uMoya, kodwa ngokomuntu onengqondo, lokho akunikezi incazelo ecacile. Kuhlinzeka kuphela incazelo enyakazayo, noma ebanzi, futhi ngeke kukhiphe imiyalelo ngamazwi. Nokho, umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu osenyameni uhluke kakhulu: Unokuqondisa okucacile kwamazwi, unentando ecacile, futhi unemigomo ecacile efunakalayo. Ngakho akudingeki ukuthi umuntu acinge, noma asebenzise iso lakhe lengqondo noma aqagele. Lokhu ukukhanyiswa komsebenzi enyameni, nomehluko wakho omkhulu emsebenzini kaMoya. Umsebenzi kaMoya ulungele isilinganiso esithile kuphela, ngeke uthathe isikhundla somsebenzi wenyama. Umsebenzi wenyama unika umuntu imigomo enemba kakhulu futhi edingekayo nolwazi lwangempela, olunosizo kakhulu kunomsebenzi kaMoya. Umsebenzi oyigugu kakhulu kumuntu owonakele yilona onamazwi anembayo, imigomo ecacile, futhi ongabonakala noma uthinteke. Umsebenzi onengqondo kuphela nokuqondisa okufika ngesikhathi okufaneleka nokuthandwa ngumuntu, okudingwa abantu ovivinyweni lwabo, futhi umsebenzi kuphela wangempela ongasindisa umuntu ekukhohlakaleni nasesimweni sakhe esiphansi. Lokhu kungafezwa kuphela uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu; uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu kuphela ongasindisa umuntu enkohlakalweni nasesimweni sakhe esiphansi sakudala. Nakuba uMoya uyingqikithi yemvelo kaNkulunkulu, umsebenzi ofana nalo ungenziwa kuphela inyama Yakhe. Uma uMoya usebenze wodwa, umsebenzi Wakhe-ke ngeke usebenze ngokunomthelela—leli yiqiniso elimsulwa. Nakuba abantu abaningi sebephenduke izitha zikaNkulunkulu ngenxa yale nyama, lapho uNkulunkulu eqeda umsebenzi Wakhe, labo abamelene Naye ngeke bayeke kuphela ukuba izitha Zakhe, kodwa kuyokwenzeka okuphambene ngokuthi babe ofakazi Bakhe. Bayoba ofakazi abanqotshwe Nguye, ofakazi abafanelekayo Kuye futhi abangehlukaniseki Naye. Wenza ukuba umuntu azi ukubaluleka komsebenzi Wakhe kumuntu esenyameni yomuntu, futhi umuntu kufanele akwazi ukubaluleka kwale nyama enjongweni yokuba khona komuntu, azi indima Yakhe yangempela ekukhuleni kokuphila komuntu, futhi ngaphezu kwalokho, azi ukuthi le nyama iyoba umthombo ophilayo wokuphila umuntu angeke akwazi ukwahlukana nakho.

209. Nakuba inyama kaNkulunkulu ikude kakhulu nokufana nomfanekiso nesikhundla sikaNkulunkulu, futhi kumuntu ibonakala ingafanelani nesikhundla Sakhe sangempela, le nyama, engasivezi ngempela isithombe esicacile sikaNkulunkulu, noma isiqu sangempela sikaNkulunkulu, ingenza umsebenzi uMoya kaNkulunkulu ongeke ukwazi ukuwenza ngokuqondile. Kunjalo ukubaluleka nomsebenzi wangempela wokuba sesimweni somuntu kukaNkulunkulu, futhi yilokhu kubaluleka nokuba nomsebenzi kwakho umuntu angakwazisi futhi angakuvumi. Nakuba bonke abantu bephakamisa uMoya kaNkulunkulu futhi bebukela phansi inyama kaNkulunkulu, kungakhathaleki ukuthi babuka kanjani futhi bacabangani, ukubaluleka kwangempela nokuba yigugu kwenyama kukudlula kude okoMoya. Empeleni, lokhu kumayelana nesintu esikhohlakele kuphela. Kuwo wonke umuntu ofuna iqiniso futhi olangazelela ukubonakala kukaNkulunkulu, umsebenzi kaMoya unganika kuphela ukunyakaziseka nesambulo, nomuzwa wokumangala ongachazeki futhi ongacabangeki, futhi nomuzwa wokuthi mkhulu, uphakeme, futhi uyaziseka, kodwa akufikeki kuwo futhi awutholakali nhlobo. Umuntu noMoya kaNkulunkulu bengabukelana kude kuphela, sengathi kunebanga elide phakathi kwabo, futhi abasoze bafana, sengathi umuntu noNkulunkulu bahlukaniswe umngcele ongabonakali. Eqinisweni, lokhu ukulutheka umuntu akunikwe uMoya, okubangelwa ukuthi umuntu noMoya abalona uhlobo olulodwa, futhi uMoya nomuntu abasoze baphila ndawonye emhlabeni owodwa, nokuthi uMoya awunalutho lomuntu. Ngakho umuntu akawudingi uMoya, ngoba uMoya awukwazi ukwenza ngokuqondile umsebenzi odingwa kakhulu umuntu. Umsebenzi wenyama unikeza umuntu imigomo yangempela angayilandela, amazwi acacile, nomuzwa wokuthi ungokoqobo futhi ujwayelekile, uthobekile futhi uvamile. Nakuba umuntu angase amesabe, kubantu abaningi kulula ukuzwana naye: Umuntu angabubona ubuso Bakhe, ezwe izwi Lakhe, futhi akadingeki ukumbukela kude. Le nyama izwakala kusondeleka kuyo, ayikude, akulukhuni ukuyiqonda, kodwa iyabonakala futhi iyathinteka, ngoba le nyama isemhlabeni owodwa nomuntu.

210. Umuntu useyabona ukuthi umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu osenyameni ungaphezulu kokwejwayelekile. Kuningi umuntu angeke akwazi ukukuthola; kuyizimfihlakalo nezimangaliso. Ngakho, baningi asebezinikele. Abanye abakaze bazinikele kumuntu selokhu bazalwa, kodwa lapho bebona amazwi kaNkulunkulu namuhla, bazinikela ngokugcwele ngaphandle kokuqaphela ukuthi sebenze kanjalo, futhi abanasibindi sokuqala ukucubungula noma ukusho noma yini enye. Umuntu uwile ngaphansi kwezwi kanye nokwahlulela kwezwi. Uma uMoya kaNkulunkulu wawukhuluma kubantu, bonke babeyozinikela ngokugcwele ezwini, baguqe phansi ngaphandle kwamazwi esambulo, njengoba kwenza uPawulu lapho ewela phansi ngenxa yokukhanya endleleni eya eDamaseku. Ukube uNkulunkulu waqhubeka wasebenza ngale ndlela, umuntu wayengeke akwazi ukubona ukonakala kwakhe ngokwahlulela kwezwi futhi athole insindiso. Kungokuba senyameni kuphela lapho engahambisa khona mathupha amazwi Akhe kuzo zonke izindlebe, ukuze bonke abanezindlebe bezwe amazwi futhi bamukele umsebenzi Wakhe wokwahlulela ngezwi. Inje kuphela imiphumela engatholakala ngezwi Lakhe, kunokuvela koMoya owesabise umuntu umphoqe ukuba azinikele. Kungenzeka kuphela ngomsebenzi owenziwayo osezingeni eliphezulu ukuba isimo esidala somuntu, esifihleke ngaphakathi kuye iminyaka eminingi, sivezwe obala ukuze abantu basibone futhi basiguqule. Lona umsebenzi wangokoqobo owenziwa uNkulunkulu osenyameni; ukhuluma futhi ethule ukwahlulela ngendlela ephathekayo ukuze kuzuzwe imiphumela yokwahlulela kumuntu ngezwi. Leli yigunya likaNkulunkulu osenyameni nokubaluleka kokuba kwakhe senyameni. Kwenziwa ukuze igunya likaNkulunkulu osenyameni, imiphumela etholakale ngomsebenzi wezwi, nokuthi uMoya oze usenyameni kwaziwe; ubonisa igunya Lakhe ngokwahlulela umuntu ngezwi. Nakuba inyama Yakhe iwukubonakala kwangaphandle komuntu ojwayelekile, iwumphumela amazwi Akhe awutholayo obonisa umuntu ukuthi ugcwele igunya, ukuthi unguNkulunkulu uqobo nokuthi amazwi Akhe awukubonakaliswa kukaNkulunkulu uqobo. Lokhu kukhombisa bonke abantu ukuthi unguNkulunkulu uqobo, uNkulunkulu uqobo owaba yinyama, ukuthi akufanele acasulwe yinoma ngubani, nokuthi akekho ongedlula ukwahlulela Kwakhe ngezwi, futhi akukho mandla obumnyama angabusa phezu kwegunya Lakhe. Umuntu uzinikela kuye ngokuphelele ngoba uwuLizwi obe yinyama, ithonya Lakhe, nokwahlulela Kwakhe ngezwi. Umsebenzi owawulethwe yinyama yakhe uyigunya analo. Uba yinyama ngoba inyama ingakwazi nayo ukuba negunya futhi uyakwazi ukwenza umsebenzi kubantu ngendlela engokoqobo, ebonakalayo nethintekayo kumuntu. Umsebenzi onjalo uba ngokoqobo kakhulu ngokwengeziwe kunoma yimuphi umsebenzi owenziwa ngokuqondile nguMoya kaNkulunkulu onegunya lonke futhi imiphumela yawo nayo isobala. Lokhu kungoba inyama Yakhe ingakhuluma futhi yenze umsebenzi ngendlela engokoqobo; isakhiwo sangaphandle senyama Yakhe asinagunya futhi umuntu angafinyelela kuso. Ingqikithi Yakhe inegunya kodwa igunya Lakhe alibonakali kumuntu. Lapho ekhuluma nalapho esebenza, umuntu akakwazi ukubona ukuthi kukhona igunya Lakhe; lokhu kuba kuhle nakakhulu emsebenzini Wakhe ongokoqobo. Futhi yonke imisebenzi enje ingaba nemiphumela. Ngisho kungekho muntu obonayo ukuthi unegunya noma obonayo ukuthi akanakucasulwa noma abone ulaka Lwakhe, ngegunya Lakhe elifihlakele, ulaka nokukhuluma obala, uzuza imiphumela ayihlosile yamazwi Akhe. Ngamanye amazwi, ngesimo sephimbo Lakhe, ukuqina kwenkulumo kanye nokuhlakanipha kwamazwi Akhe umuntu uyakholwa ngokugcwele. Ngaleyo ndlela, umuntu uyazinikela emazwini kaNkulunkulu osenyameni, obonakala engenalo igunya, ngaleyo ndlela afeze inhloso Yakhe yokusindisa umuntu. Lokhu okunye ukubaluleka kokuba Kwakhe senyameni: ukukhuluma ngokwengeziwe ngokoqobo futhi avumele ubuqiniso bamazwi Akhe ukuba bube nomthelela kumuntu ukuze babone amandla ezwi likaNkulunkulu. Ngakho lo msebenzi, uma ungenziwa ngokuba senyameni, ngeke ube ngisho nemincane imiphumela futhi ngeke uzisindise izoni. Uma uNkulunkulu engabi yinyama, uhlala enguMoya ongabonakali futhi ongathinteki kumuntu. Umuntu uyisidalwa esiyinyama futhi umuntu noNkulunkulu bangabasemihlabeni emibili engafani nengafani ngemvelo. UMoya kaNkulunkulu awuhambisani nomuntu wenyama futhi akukho ukuhlobana okungakheka phakathi kwabo; ngaphezu kwalokho, umuntu akakwazi ukuba umoya. Ngaleyo ndlela, uMoya kaNkulunkulu kumele ube ngesinye sezidalwa futhi wenze umsebenzi Wakhe wokuqala. UNkulunkulu angenyukela endaweni ephakeme aphinde azithobe abe umuntu oyisidalwa, enze umsebenzi futhi aphile nabantu, kodwa umuntu akakwazi ukwenyukela ezindaweni eziphezulu abe ngumoya futhi kukancane kakhulu ukuba umuntu ehlele phansi. Ngakho, uNkulunkulu kumele abe yinyama ukuze enze umsebenzi Wakhe. Njengokuba senyameni kokuqala, yinyama kaNkulunkulu osenyameni kuphela eyayingahlenga isintu ngokubethelwa Kwakhe, kuyilapho kwakungeke kwenzeke ukuba uMoya kaNkulunkulu ubethelwe njengomnikelo wesono somuntu. UNkulunkulu angaba yinyama ukuze asebenze njengomnikelo wesono soumuntu kodwa umuntu akakwazanga ukunyukela ezulwini ukuyozilandela umnikelo wesono uNkulunkulu ayewulungiselele bona. Ngaleyo ndlela, uNkulunkulu kumele ahambe kulezi zindawo zombili, ezulwini nasemhlabeni, kunokuba enze ukuba abantu banyukele ezulwini ukuze bathathe insindiso, ngoba umuntu uwile futhi akakwazi ukuya ezulwini, futhi kukancane kakhulu ukuba athole umhlatshelo wesono. Kanjalo, kwakufanele ukuba uJesu eze phakathi kwabantu futhi azenzele mathupha umsebenzi owawungeke ufezwe ngabantu. Njalo lapho uNkulunkulu eba yinyama, kwakusuke kufanele ngempela ukuba enze kanjalo. Ukube esinye salezi zigaba sasingenziwa nguMoya kaNkulunkulu ngokuqondile, wayengeke abhekane nokwehliswa isithunzi ngokuba senyameni.

212. Ngesikhathi uNkulunkulu engakathathi isimo senyama, abantu babengaqondi okuningi kwalokho ayekusho ngoba kwaphuma ebunkulunkulwini obuphelele. Indlela yokubuka kanye nengqikithi yalokho Akusho, kwakungabonakali futhi kungafinyeleleki esintwini; kwakhulunywa kususelwa emhlabeni wakwamoya abantu ababengawuboni. Ngokuba abantu ababephila enyameni, babengakwazi ukudlulela emhlabeni wakwamoya. Kodwa emva kokuba uNkulunkulu ethathe isimo senyama, wakhuluma nesintu ngendlela yobuntu futhi waphuma futhi wedlula ububanzi bomhlaba womoya. Wayengakhuluma ngesimo Sakhe sobunkulunkulu, intando Yakhe, kanye nesimo sengqondo Yakhe ngezinto abantu ababengazicabanga kanye nezinto abazibonayo futhi abahlangabezana nazo ezimpilweni zabo. Futhi wayesebenzisa izindlela abantu ababekwazi ukuzamukela, ngolimi abaluqondayo, nolwazi ababekwazi ukulubamba, ukuvumela isintu ukuba siqonde futhi simazi uNkulunkulu, ukuqonda inhloso Yakhe kanye nezinga alidingayo ngaphakathi kobubanzi bomthamo wabo, kuze kufike ezingeni lapho bekwazi khona. Lena kwakuyindlela kanye nesimiso somsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ebuntwini. Noma-ke izindlela zikaNkulunkulu kanye nezimiso Zakhe zokusebenza enyameni zaphumelela ngokusebenza ngobuntu, zathola imiphumela ayayingeke itholakale ngokusebenza ngobunkulunkulu ngqo. Ukusebenza kukaNkulunkulu ebuntwini kwakubambeka, kuneqiniso, futhi kunenhloso, izindlela zazikhululekile, futhi zedlula iNkathi Yomthetho ngokwesimo.

213. Injongo yokufika kukaNkulunkulu enyameni ikakhulukazi, ukwenza ukuba abantu babone imisebenzi yangempela kaNkulunkulu, ukunikeza isiqu uMoya ongenasimo enyameni, kanye nokuvumela abantu ukuba bambone futhi bamthinte. Ngale ndlela, labo abapheleliswe Nguye bazophila ubuyena, bazozuzwa Nguye, futhi babe ngabenhliziyo Yakhe. Ukuba uNkulunkulu wayekhulume ezulwini kuphela, futhi wangeza ngempela emhlabeni, abantu bebezolokhu bengakwazi ukumazi uNkulunkulu, bebezokwazi kuphela ukushumayela imisebenzi kaNkulunkulu besebenzisa okucatshangiwe okungenalutho, futhi bebengeke babe namazwi kaNkulunkulu njengeqiniso. Injongo kaNkulunkulu ngokuza emhlabeni ukwenza njengesibonelo kanye nesifanekiso salabo abazozuzwa uNkulunkulu; kungale ndlela kuphela lapho abantu bengazi khona uNkulunkulu ngempela, futhi bamthinte uNkulunkulu, futhi bambone, kulapho kuphela bengakwazi ukuzuzwa ngeqiniso uNkulunkulu.

214. Kuyoba lapho uNkulunkulu ezithoba kuze kube sezingeni elithile kuphela, okusho ukuthi lapho uNkulunkulu eba senyameni, lapho umuntu engaba khona umngani nesethenjwa Sakhe. UNkulunkulu unguMoya: Kwenzeka kanjani ukuba umuntu akufanelekele ukuba umngani nalo Moya, ophakeme kangaka nobabazekayo? Yilapho kuphela uMoya kaNkulunkulu wehla uba yinyama, uba yisidalwa ngaphandle esibukeka njengomuntu, lapho umuntu angakwazi ukuqonda intando Yakhe futhi azuzwe Nguye. UNkulunkulu ukhuluma aphinde asebenze enyameni, ajabule nabanye, adabuke futhi abhekane nezinsizi zomuntu, aphile emhlabeni ofanayo nalo umuntu aphila kuwo, avikele umuntu, amqondise, kulokhu uhlanza umuntu, emvumela ukuba athole insindiso Yakhe kanye nesibusiso. Uma umuntu esezithole zonke lezi zinto, uyiqonda nakangcono intando kaNkulunkulu, futhi yilapho kuphela angaba khona umngani kaNkulunkulu. Yilokhu kuphela okungokoqobo. Uma uNkulunkulu engaqondakali futhi engabonakali kumuntu, umuntu angaba kanjani umngani Wakhe? Ingabe lena akuyona imfundiso engenalutho?

215. Kubo bonke labo abaphila enyameni, ukuguqula isimo sabo kudinga ukuthi babe nemigomo yokulandelwa, futhi ukwazi uNkulunkulu kudinga ukuba ukufakaza ngezenzo Zakhe zangempela nobuso Bakhe bangempela. Kokubili lokhu kungafezwa ngenyama kaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu kuphela, futhi kokubili kungafezwa kuphela ngenyama evamile nengokoqobo. Yingakho ukuba sesimweni somuntu kudingekile, futhi yikho okwenza adingwe yiso sonke isintu esikhohlakele. Njengoba abantu kudingeka ukuthi bazi uNkulunkulu, izithombe zoNkulunkulu abangaqondakali futhi abanamandla angaphezu kwemvelo kumele zixoshwe ezinhliziyweni zabo, futhi njengoba kudingeka ukuba balahle isimo sabo esikhohlakele, kumele bazi kuqala isimo sabo esikhohlakele. Uma umuntu enza kuphela umsebenzi ngenjongo yokuxosha izithombe zoNkulunkulu abangaqondakali ezinhliziyweni zabantu, ngeke-ke aphumele ukufeza umphumela ocacile. Izithombe zoNkulunkulu abangaqondakali abasezinhliziyweni zabantu azinakwembulwa, zisuswe noma zixoshwe ngokuphelele ngamazwi kuphela. Ngokwenza kanjalo, ekugcineni kuyoba yinto engenakwenzeka ukukhipha lezi zinto ezijulile kubantu. Ukushintshanisa lezi zinto ezingacacile futhi ezinamandla angaphezu kwemvelo noNkulunkulu ongokoqobo kuphela nesithombe sangempela sikaNkulunkulu, ukwenza abantu ukuba bazazi kancane kancane, okungafeza umphumela ofanele. Umuntu uyabona ukuthi uNkulunkulu ayemfuna ngezinye izikhathi ezedlule akaqondakali futhi unamandla angaphezu kwavamile. Into engazuza lokhu akukhona ukuhola okuqondile kukaMoya, ingasaphathwa eyezimfundiso zomuntu, kodwa uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu. Imicabango yomuntu isala ngemuva lapho uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu esenza umsebenzi Wakhe, ngoba ukuvama nokuba ngokoqobo kukaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu kungqubuzana nonkulunkulu abangaqondakali nabanamandla angaphezu kwavamile abasezingqondweni zabantu. Umcabango oyiwona womuntu ungembulwa kuphela ngokuthi uqhathaniswe noNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu. Ngaphandle kokumqhathanisa noNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu, imicabango yomuntu ayisobe yembulwa; ngamanye amazwi, ngaphandle kokuqhathanisa, ukuba ngokoqobo kwezinto ezingaqondakali akusobe kwembulwa. Akekho okwazi ukusebenzisa amazwi ukuze enze lo msebenzi, futhi akekho okwazi ukucacisa lo msebenzi esebenzisa amazwi. NguNkulunkulu kuphela ongenza umsebenzi Wakhe, futhi akekho omunye ongenza lo msebenzi esikhundleni Sakhe. Akunandaba ukuthi ulimi olukhulunywa umuntu lucebe kangakanani, ngeke akwazi ukuveza ukuba ngokoqobo nokuvama kukaNkulunkulu. Umuntu uNkulunkulu angamazi kangcono, futhi ambone ngokucacile, uma uNkulunkulu esebenza Yena mathupha phakathi kwabantu futhi aveze indlela abukeka ngayo nesiqu Sakhe. Lokhu ngeke kufezwe yinoma imuphi umuntu wenyama. Empeleni, uMoya kaNkulunkulu nawo awukwazi ukufeza lokhu. UNkulunkulu angasindisa isintu esonakele ethonyeni likaSathane, kodwa lo msebenzi ngeke ufeze ngokuqondile uMoya kaNkulunkulu; kunalokho ungafezwa kuphela inyama enoMoya kaNkulunkulu, inyama kaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu. Le nyama ingumuntu futhi inguNkulunkulu, inyama enobuntu obuvamile futhi uNkulunkulu ayinike wonke amandla aphezulu. Ngakho, ngisho noma le nyama ingewona uMoya kaNkulunkulu, futhi yehluka kakhulu eMoyeni, isenguNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu uqobo osindisa isintu, owuMoya futhi oyinyama. Akunandaba ukuthi ubizwa ngani, ekugcineni usenguNkulunkulu osindisa isintu. Ngoba uMoya kaNkulunkulu awubonakali enyameni, futhi umsebenzi wenyama uphinde ube umsebenzi kaMoya kaNkulunkulu; umehluko kumane kube ukuthi lo msebenzi awenziwa kusetshenziswa isiqu sikaMoya, kodwa kusuke kusetshenziswa isiqu senyama. Umsebenzi odinga ukwenziwa uMoya ngokuqondile awumdingi uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu, futhi umsebenzi owenziwe inyama ngeke uqondiswe uMoya, kodwa ungenziwa kuphela uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu. Yilokhu okudingekayo kulo msebenzi, futhi nokudingwa yisintu esikhohlakele. Ezigabeni ezintathu zomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, sisodwa isigaba esenziwa siqondiswa uMoya, futhi ezinye izigaba ezimbili zaziqondiswa uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu, zingaqondiswa uMoya ngokuqondile. Umsebenzi weNkathi Yomthetho owenziwa uMoya wawungabandakanyi ukushintsha isimo esikhohlakele somuntu, futhi awuzange udinge noma yiluphi ulwazi lomuntu ngoNkulunkulu. Umsebenzi wenyama kaNkulunkulu eNkathini Yomusa naseNkathini Yombuso, uhlanganisa isimo somuntu esikhohlakele nolwazi lwakhe ngoNkulunkulu, futhi uyingxenye ebalulekile nebucayi yomsebenzi wensindiso. Ngakho, isintu esikhohlakele siyidinga kakhulu insindiso kaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu, futhi siwudinga kakhulu umsebenzi oqondile kaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu. Isintu sidinga ukuba uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu aseluse, aseseke, asiphuzise, asondle, asahlulele futhi asijezise, futhi siwudinga kakhulu umusa nokutakulwa uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu. UNkulunkulu wenyama kuphela, ongaba ithemba lomuntu, umelusi womuntu, nosizo lwamanje lomuntu, futhi konke lokhu kuyisidingo sikaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu namuhla nasezikhathini ezedlule.

216. UNkulunkulu uze emhlabeni ukuzokwenza umsebenzi wakhe phakathi kwabantu, ukuziveza yena mathupha kubantu kanye nokuvumela umuntu ukumbona; yinto encane lena? Kukhulu impela! Akunjengoba umuntu ecabanga nje engqondweni yakhe ukuthi uNkulunkulu ufike ukuze umuntu ambuke nje, ukuze umuntu aqonde ukuthi uNkulunkulu ukhona ngokoqobo futhi akuve kuwukuthi akaqondakali noma uyize, nokuthi uNkulunkulu uphakeme kodwa uthobekile. Kungenzeka ukuthi kulula kangako nje? Yingoba impela uSathane wonakalisile inyama yomuntu, nokuthi umuntu nguye uNkulunkulu ahlose ukumsindisa, yingakho uNkulunkulu kufanele athathe isimo senyama ukuze alwe noSathane nokuthi eluse umuntu yena ngokwakhe. Yilokhu kuphela okuwusizo emsebenzini wakhe. Imizimba yenyama emibili kaNkulunkulu ibekhona ukuze ehlule uSathane, futhi ibe khona ukuze asindise umuntu kangcono. Ingoba lowo olwa noSathane kungaba uNkulunkulu kuphela, noma nguMoya kaNkulunkulu noma uNkulunkulu ethathe isimo somzimba. Ngamafuphi, ngeke kube yizingelosi ezilwa noSathane, ingasaphathwa eyomuntu, owonakaliswe nguSathane. Izingelosi azinamandla okukwenza, kanti umuntu akanamandla futhi nangaphezulu. Kanjalo, uma uNkulunkulu efuna ukusebenza impilo yomuntu, uma efisa ukuza yena mathupha emhlabeni azosindisa umuntu, kufanele athathe isimo senyama mathupha, kanti nangobuyena bakhe bemvelo kanye nomsebenzi okufanele awenze, afike phakathi kwabantu futhi Asindise umuntu mathupha. Uma kungenjalo, uma bekunguMoya kaNkulunkulu noma umuntu obenza lo msebenzi, lempi beyizohluleka unomphela ukufeza umphumelo wayo, futhi beyingeke ize iphele. Kuphela uma uNkulunkulu ethatha isimo senyama ukuyolwa noSathane mathupha phakathi kwabantu ilapho umuntu eyoba nethuba lokusindiswa. Ngaphezu kwalokho, yilapho kuphela uSathane ezothola ukujabhiswa, futhi asale engenamathuba angawasebenzisa noma amacebo angawenza. Umsebenzi waNkulunkulu onesimo sesintu ngeke ufezwe uMoya kaNkulunkulu, futhi nangaphezulu ngeke wenziwa umuntu wenyama ewenzela uNkulunkulu, ngoba umsebenzi awenzayo ngowempilo yomuntu. Uma umuntu ubengabamba iqhaza kule mpi, ubezobaleka esebuphixiphixini obudabukisayo kuphela, futhi ubengeke akwazi nempela ukushintsha isimo somuntu esonakele. Ubengeke akwazi ukusindisa umuntu esiphambanweni, noma ukunqoba sonke isintu esidlubulundelayo, kodwa ubezokwazi kuphela ukwenza umsebenzana nje omncane ongedluli ezimisweni, noma umsebenzi ongaphathelene nokuhlulwa kukaSathane. Ngakho-ke ingabe uzihluphelani? Kuyini ukubaluleka komsebenzi ongeke uzuze isintu, kungasaphathwa okokwehlula uSathane? Ngakho-ke, impi noSathane ingenziwa kuphela uNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe, futhi ubengeke nhlobo umuntu akwazi ukuwenza. Umsebenzi womuntu ukulalela nokulandela, ngoba umuntu akakwazi ukwenza umsebenzi ohlobene nokudala amazulu nomhlaba, noma, ngaphezu kwalokho, enze umsebenzi wokwehlula uSathane. Umuntu angenelisa uMdali ngaphansi kokuholwa nguNkulunkulu uqobo lwakhe, ngalokho uSathane uyahlulwa; iyo kuphela into umuntu angayenza. Ngakho, njalo lapho impilo entsha iqala, okungukuthi, umsebenzi wenkathi entsha uqala, lo msebenzi wenziwa nguNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe mathupha, ngaleyo ndlela uhola inkathi yonkana, futhi uvula indlela entsha yesintu. Ukuqala kwenkathi entsha ngayinye, yisiqalo esisha empini noSathane, umuntu angena ngayo embusweni omusha futhi omuhle kakhulu kanye nenkathi entsha eholwa mathupha nguNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe.

217. Kungani ngithi incazelo yokuba uNkulunkulu abe sesimweni somuntu ayipheleliswanga emsebenzini kaJesu? Yingenxa yokuthi uLizwi akabanga yinyama ngokuphelele. Lokho uJesu akwenza kuphela kwakuyingxenye yomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu esesimweni somuntu; Wenza kuphela umsebenzi wokuhlenga futhi akazange awuqede umsebenzi wokuzuza umuntu ngokuphelele. Ngalesi sizathu, uNkulunkulu ube yinyama futhi ngezinsuku zokugcina. Lesi sigaba somsebenzi naso senziwa enyameni ejwayelekile, senziwe umuntu ojwayelekile kakhulu, obuntu bakhe obungababazeki nakancane. Ngamanye amazwi, uNkulunkulu ube umuntu ophelele, futhi ungumuntu obuntu bakhe bungobukaNkulunkulu, umuntu ophelele, inyama ephelele, owenza umsebenzi. Emehlweni omuntu, uyinyama nje engababazeki nhlobo, umuntu ojwayeleke kakhulu okhuluma ulimi lwasezulwini, ongabonisi zibonakaliso, ongenzi zimangaliso, kungasaphathwa ukuthi adalule iqiniso langempela ngenkolo emahholo amakhulu emihlangano. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu wesibili, ubonakala kubantu ungafani kakhulu nokaNkulunkulu wokuqala owayesesimweni somuntu kangangokuthi kusengathi akukho nokuncane kuyo okufanayo futhi akukho okwenziwa emsebenzini wokuqala okungabonakala kulesi sikhathi. Nakuba umsebenzi wenyama ethathe isimo somuntu yesibili uhlukile kunalowo weyokuqala, lokho akufakazi ukuthi umthombo wabo awuwodwa. Ukuthi umthombo Wabo uyafana yini, kuncike ekutheni uhlobo olunjani lomsebenzi owenziwe ngabantu abangokwenyama hhayi owenziwe yingaphandle Labo. Ngesikhathi sezigaba ezintathu zomsebenzi Wakhe, uNkulunkulu usebe sesimweni somuntu kabili, futhi kuzo zombili izikhathi umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu othathe isimo somuntu uqala inkathi entsha, wethula umsebenzi omusha; ukuthatha umzimba womuntu kokubili kuyahambisana. Kuyinto engenakwenzeka ukuba amehlo omuntu abone ukuthi yomibili le mizimba empeleni ivela emthonjeni owodwa. Akubuzwa, kungaphezu kokubona komuntu noma ukucabanga komuntu. Kodwa engqikithini Yayo iyafana ngoba imisebenzi Yayo ivela kuMoya ofanayo. Ukuthi yomibili le mizimba ethathe isimo somuntu ivela emthonjeni ofanayo angeke kwahlulelwe ngesikhathi noma indawo ezalelwe kuyo, noma ezinye izinto ezifana nalezo, kodwa ngomsebenzi waphezulu obonakaliswe Yiyo. Umzimba othathe isimo somuntu wesibili awenzi nowodwa umsebenzi owenziwa nguJesu, ngoba umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu awuhambisani nalokho okubonakala eningini njengokulungile, kodwa isikhathi ngasinye uvula indlela entsha. Umzimba wesibili awuhlosile ukujulisa noma ukuqinisa umthelela womzimba wokuqala ezingqondweni zabantu, kodwa ukuhambisana nawo nokuwuphelelisa ukuze ulwazi ngoNkulunkulu lujule kubantu, nokuba ugqashule yonke imithetho esezinhliziyweni zabantu nokususa zonke izithombe eziyinkohliso ngoNkulunkulu ezinhliziyweni zabo. Kungashiwo ukuthi asikho nesisodwa isigaba somsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uqobo esinganikeza umuntu ulwazi oluphelele Ngaye; isigaba ngasinye sinikeza ingxenye, hhayi lonke ulwazi Ngaye. Nakuba uNkulunkulu ezivezile isimo Sakhe ngokuphelele, ngenxa yokuthi ukuqonda komuntu kunomkhawulo, ulwazi lwakhe ngoNkulunkulu lulokhu lungaphelele. Kuyinto engenakwenzeka, ngokusebenzisa ulimi lwabantu, ukuveza isimo sikaNkulunkulu sisonke; kungasaphathwa ukuthi kuncane kangakanani isigaba ngasinye somsebenzi Wakhe esingakuveza ngoNkulunkulu ephelele? Usebenza esenyameni embozwe ubuntu Bakhe obujwayelekile, futhi umuntu angamazi kuphela ngezenzo zobunkulunkulu Bakhe kuphela, hhayi ngomzimba Wakhe obonakalayo. UNkulunkulu uba sesimweni somuntu ukuze avumele ukuba umuntu amazi ngemisebenzi Yakhe ehlukahlukene, futhi asikho isigaba somsebenzi Wakhe esifana nesinye. Yingale ndlela kuphela umuntu angaba khona nolwazi oluphelele ngomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu esenyameni, hhayi ngokubopheleka engxenyeni eyodwa. Nakuba umsebenzi wemizimba emibili esesimweni somuntu ungafani, ingqikithi yale mizimba, nomthombo womsebenzi Wayo, kuyefana; ukuthi nje ikhona ukuze yenze izigaba ezimbili zomsebenzi ezehlukene futhi ibe sezinkathini ezimbili ezingafani. Akukhathaleki ukuthi kwenzekani, imizimba kaNkulunkulu esesimweni somuntu inengqikithi efanayo nomthombo ofanayo—leli yiqiniso elingenakuphikwa.

218. UNkulunkulu, ekubeni Kwakhe sesimweni somuntu okokuqala akazange awuqede umsebenzi wokuba sesimweni somuntu; waqeda isigaba sokuqala kuphela leso okwakubalulekile ukuba uNkulunkulu asenze esesimweni somuntu. Ngakho, ukuze aqede umsebenzi wokuba sesimweni somuntu, uNkulunkulu ubuyele enyameni futhi, ukuphila konke ukujwayeleka nobunjalo benyama, okungukuthi, enza ukuba iZwi likaNkulunkulu lizibonakalise enyameni ejwayelekile futhi evamile ngokuphelele, ngalokho ephetha umsebenzi ayewushiye engawuqedanga esesesimweni somuntu. Inyama yesibili ethathe isimo somuntu ngokwengqikithi isafana neyokuqala, kodwa ingokoqobo ngisho nakakhulu, ijwayeleke nakakhulu kuneyokuqala. Ngenxa yalokho, ubuhlungu uNkulunkulu wesibili osesimweni somuntu abubekezelelayo bukhulu kakhulu kunobokuqala, kodwa lokhu kuhlupheka kungenxa yenkonzo Yakhe esesimweni somuntu okuhlukile kunokuhlupheka komuntu owonakele. Futhi kuvela ekujwayelekeni neqiniso lenyama Yakhe. Ngenxa yokuthi wenza inkonzo Yakhe emzimbeni ongokoqobo nojwayelekile, inyama kumele ibhekane nokuhlushwa okukhulu. Ukuvama Kwakhe nokuba ngokoqobo kwenyama Yakhe, kusho ukuhlupheka okukhulu nakakhulu lapho enza inkonzo Yakhe. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uvezwa enyameni ejwayeleke kakhulu, engesona nhlobo isimangaliso. Ngenxa yokuthi inyama Yakhe ijwayelekile futhi kumele ithwale umsebenzi wokusindisa abantu, uhlupheka nakakhulu kunenyama enamandla angajwayelekile—konke lokho kuhlupheka kusukela eqinisweni nokujwayeleka kwenyama Yakhe. Kusukela kulokho kuhlupheka le mizimba emibili esesimweni somuntu eyabhekana nakho lapho yenza izinkonzo Zayo, lokhu kwenza kubonakale ukubaluleka kwenyama ethathe isimo somuntu. Ukuvama Kwakhe nokuba ngokoqobo kwenyama Yakhe, kusho ukuhlupheka okukhulu nakakhulu okumele akubekezelele njengoba enza umsebenzi, abantu baba nombono omubi nakakhulu kwande nezingozi ezingamehlela. Nokho, lapho inyama iba ngokoqobo nakakhulu, yilapho iba nezidingo kanye nobuntu obujwayelekile nakakhulu, kuba yilapho ikwazi khona ukwenza umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu enyameni. Kwakuyinyama kaJesu eyabethelwa esiphambanweni, inyama Yakhe le anikela ngayo njengomhlatshelo wesono; kwakungenyama enobuntu obujwayelekile anqoba ngayo uSathane futhi wasindisa umuntu esiphambanweni ngokuphelele. Futhi kulapho eyinyama ephelele lapho uNkulunkulu, ekubeni Kwakhe sesimweni somuntu okwesibili, enza khona umsebenzi wokunqoba futhi ehlule uSathane. Yinyama ejwayelekile futhi engokoqobo ngokuphelele kuphela engenza umsebenzi wokunqoba sewuwonke futhi inikeze ubufakazi obunamandla. Okuwukuthi, ukunqoba umuntu kwenziwa ukuba kuphumelele ngeqiniso nokujwayeleka kukaNkulunkulu osenyameni, hhayi ngezimangaliso nezambulo ezingaphezu kwamandla emvelo. Inkonzo yalo Nkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu ukukhuluma, futhi ngaleyo ndlela anqobe futhi aphelelise umuntu; ngamanye amazwi, umsebenzi kaMoya owenzeka enyameni, umsebenzi wenyama, ukukhuluma bese ngalokho unqobe, wembule, uphelelise futhi ususe umuntu ngokuphelele. Ngakho, kungomsebenzi wokunqoba lapho umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu enyameni uyofezeka ngokugcwele. Umsebenzi wokuqala wokuhlenga wawungukuqala komsebenzi wokuba sesimweni somuntu; inyama eyenza umsebenzi wokunqoba izoqeda wonke umsebenzi wokuthatha isimo somzimba wenyama. Uma siwuhlukanisa ngokobulili, omunye ungowesilisa kanti omunye ungowesifazane; kulokhu, incazelo yokuthatha isimo somuntu kukaNkulunkulu seyiphelele. Le ncazelo iqeda imibono eyiphutha yabantu ngoNkulunkulu: UNkulunkulu angaba yikho kokubili owesilisa nowesifazane, futhi uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu eqinisweni akanabo ubulili.

221. UNkulunkulu uze emhlabeni ikakhulukazi ukuze afeze iqiniso lokuthi “uLizwi uba yinyama,” okusho ukuthi, uze ukuze amazwi Akhe azonikezwa esenyameni (hhayi njengasesikhathini sikaMose eTestamenteni Elidala, lapho uNkulunkulu ayekhuluma ngokuqondile esesibhakabhakeni). Ngemva kwalokho ngalinye lamazwi Akhe lizogcwaliseka phakathi neNkathi Yombuso Weminyaka Eyinkulungwane, azoba amaqiniso asobala emehlweni abantu, futhi abantu bazowabona ngamehlo abo ngaphandle kokungabaza.

Lena incazelo enembayo yokuthi “uLizwi waba yinyama” nethi “Ukubonakala kukaLizwi enyameni.” UNkulunkulu kuphela ongakhuluma intando kaMoya, futhi uNkulunkulu osenyameni kuphela ongakhulumela uMoya; amazwi kaNkulunkulu enziwe acaca ekubeni sesimweni somuntu kukaNkulunkulu, futhi wonke umuntu uqondiswa yiwo. Akekho okhululiwe, bonke bakhona ngaphakathi kwalo mngcele. Yingala mazwi kuphela lapho abantu bengakwazi khona; labo abangazuzi ngale ndlela bayaziphuphela nje uma becabanga ukuthi bangathola amazwi avela ezulwini. Lelo gunya libonakaliswe uNkulunkulu ekuguqulweni abe yinyama: ukwenza ukuba bonke bakholwe. Ngisho kuthiwa ompetha abaqeqeshiwe noma abefundisi bezinkolo angeke bakwazi ukukhuluma la mazwi. Kumele bazithobe kuwo, futhi akekho ongakwazi ukuqalisa kabusha. UNkulunkulu uzosebenzisa amazwi ukuze anqobe umhlaba wonke. Uzokwenza lokhu hhayi ngokuguqulelwa enyameni, kodwa ngokusebenzisa amazwi avela umlonyeni kaNkulunkulu obe yinyama ukuze anqobe bonke abantu emhlabeni wonke; yilokhu kuphela okunguLizwi eba yinyama, futhi yilokhu kuphela ukubonakala kukaLizwi enyameni.

222. UNkulunkulu oyinyama uziveza Yena kubantu abambalwa abamlandelayo njengoba ezenzela umsebenzi Wakhe, kodwa hhayi kuzo zonke izidalwa. Waba yinyama kuphela ukuze azofeza isigaba somsebenzi kuphela, hhayi ukuzobonisa abantu umfanekiso Wakhe. Nokho, umsebenzi Wakhe kumele ufezwe nguye uqobo, nokho kubalulekile Kuye ukuba akwenze lokhu esenyameni.

Umsebenzi olandelayo wona wonke wenziwe nguMoya oNgcwele ngokuqondile. Kulesi sikhathi, umuntu ubengeke asibone kalula isiqu Sakhe esenyameni; akazibonakalisi nhlobo Yena uqobo kubantu futhi uyohlale efihlakele. Kunesikhathi esilinganiselwe umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu osenyameni, okumele wenziwe enkathini ethile, ngesikhathi esithile, esizweni naphakathi kwabantu abathile. Umsebenzi onjalo umelele kuphela umsebenzi wesikhathi sikaNkulunkulu eyinyama futhi uqondene nesikhathi esithile, umele umsebenzi woMoya kaNkulunkulu enkathini eyodwa ethile futhi hhayi wonke umsebenzi Wakhe. Ngakho, isiqu sikaNkulunkulu abe yinyama ngaso ngeke sivezwe kubo bonke abantu. Okukhonjiswa ezihlweleni ukulunga kukaNkulunkulu nesimo Sakhe esiphelele, kunesiqu Sakhe lapho eba yinyama kabili. Akusona isiqu esisodwa esivezwa kumuntu, noma iziqu ezimbili ezihlanganisiwe. Ngakho, kuphoqelekile ukuthi uNkulunkulu osenyameni awushiye umhlaba ekuqedeni umsebenzi adinga ukuwenza, ngoba usuke ezele ukuzokwenza kuphela umsebenzi okumele awenze, hhayi ukuzobonisa abantu isiqu Sakhe. Nakuba ukubaluleka kokuba Kwakhe senyameni sekugcwaliswe nguNkulunkulu eba yinyama kabili, usazoqhubeka nokungazibonakalisi obala kunoma yisiphi isizwe esingakaze simbone. UJesu ngeke aphinde futhi aziveze kumaJuda njengeLanga lokulunga, noma enyuke iNtaba Yeminqumo abonakale kubo bonke abantu; konke okubonwa ngamaJuda ngumfanekiso wakhe ngesikhathi eseJudiya. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi umsebenzi kaJesu esenyameni waphela eminyakeni eyizinkulungwane ezimbili ezedlule; ngeke abuyele eJudiya esesiqwini somJuda, ingasaphathwa eyokuziveza esesiqwini somJuda kunoma yiziphi iZizwe, ngoba isiqu sikaJesu eyinyama yisithombe nje somJuda, akusona esendodana yomuntu eyayibonwe nguJohane. Nakuba uJesu wethembisa abalandeli Bakhe ukuthi uyobuya futhi, ngeke avele aziveze esimweni somJuda kwabeZizwe. Kufanele ukuba nazi ukuthi umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu osenyameni uwukuvula inkathi. Lo msebenzi ungoweminyaka embalwa kuphela futhi angeke awufeze wonke umsebenzi kaMoya kaNkulunkulu. Lokhu kufana nendlela isiqu sikaJesu njengeJuda esingamelela ngayo kuphela isiqu sikaNkulunkulu njengoba wayesebenza eJudiya, lapho wayengenza kuphela umsebenzi wokubethelwa.

Ngakho, ngemva kokuba esebethelwe futhi waphetha umsebenzi Wakhe, wenyukela phezulu futhi wazifihla ngokuphelele kubantu. Kusuka ngaleso sikhathi, labo kwabeZizwe ababekholwa ngobuqotho babebona kuphela izithombe Zakhe ababezinameka ezindongeni, hhayi ukubonakaliswa kweNkosi uJesu. Lesi sithombe sidwetshwe ngumuntu nje, asiyiso isiqu uNkulunkulu uqobo asikhombisa umuntu. UNkulunkulu ngeke azibonakalise ezihlweleni esiqwini sangenkathi ebe yinyama kabili. Umsebenzi awenzayo esintwini uwukusivumela ukuba siqonde isimo Sakhe. Konke lokhu kufezwa ngokubonisa umuntu umsebenzi wezinkathi ezahlukahlukene kanye nesimo asenze saziwa nomsebenzi awenzile kunokuba azibonakalise ngoJesu. Lokhu kusho ukuthi, isiqu sikaNkulunkulu asaziswanga abantu ngesiqu senyama, kunalokho ngomsebenzi owenziwe inyama Yakhe, uNkulunkulu wesiqu nesimo; futhi ngomsebenzi Wakhe, isiqu Sakhe siyakhonjiswa nesimo Sakhe senziwe saziwe.

Akuyiwo kuphela umzimba kaNkulunkulu wokuba senyameni kwesibili, kodwa futhi umzimba uNkulunkulu abuya ekuwo. Uyinyama ejwayelekile kakhulu. Kuye, awukwazi ukubona into ehlukile kweyabanye, kodwa ungathola Kuye amaqiniso ongakaze uwezwe ngaphambilini. Le nyama engabalulekile iwukuhlanganiswa kwawo wonke amazwi eqiniso avela kuNkulunkulu, lokho okwenza umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ezinsukwini zokugcina, futhi kuveza sonke isimo sikaNkulunkulu ukuze umuntu asiqonde. Awukufisi kakhulu ukubona uNkulunkulu osezulwini? Awufisi kakhulu ukuqonda uNkulunkulu osezulwini? Awufisi kakhulu ukubona isiphetho sesintu? Uzokutshela zonke lezi zimfihlo okungekho muntu oke wakwazi ukukutshela zona, futhi uzobuye akutshele amaqiniso ongawaqondi. Uyisango lakho lokungena embusweni, nomqondisi wakho ekungeneni enkathini entsha. Inyama ejwayeleke kanjalo iqukethe izimfihlakalo ezingenakwaziwa.

Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ezinsukwini zokugcina ukuvumela umuntu ukubona uNkulunkulu osezulwini ephila phakathi kwabantu emhlabeni, futhi nokwenza umuntu ukuthi azi, alalele, ahloniphe, futhi athande uNkulunkulu. Yingakho ebuyele enyameni okwesibili. Nakuba lokho umuntu akubonayo namuhla kunguNkulunkulu ofana nomuntu, uNkulunkulu onekhala kanye namehlo amabili, futhi uNkulunkulu ongamangalisi, ekugcineni uNkulunkulu uzokukhombisa ukuthi ngaphandle kokuba khona kwalo muntu, izulu nomhlaba kungabhekana noguquko olumangalisayo; ngaphandle kokuba khona kwalo muntu, izulu lingafiphala, umhlaba ungaphenduka isiphithiphithi, futhi sonke isintu singaphila endlaleni nezifo ezibhubhisayo. Uzokukhombisa ukuthi ngaphandle kwensindiso kaNkulunkulu osenyameni ezinsukwini zokugcina, uNkulunkulu ngabe kade abhubhisa sonke isintu esihogweni; ngaphandle kokuba khona kwale nyama, ubuyohlala njalo uyinkosi yezoni nezidumbu ingunaphakade. Kufanele wazi ukuthi ngaphandle kokuba khona kwale nyama, sonke isintu besizobhekana nenhlekelele engenakugwemeka futhi sithole kunzima ukuphunyuka esijezisweni sikaNkulunkulu esinzima kakhulu ezinsukwini zokugcina.

Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu yilokhu ongeke wakuqonda. Uma ungaqondi noma isinqumo sakho silungile futhi ungazi noma umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ungaphumelela, kungani ungazami inhlanhla yakho futhi ubone noma lomuntu ojwayelekile uwusizo olukhulu kuwena, nokuthi uNkulunkulu wenze umsebenzi omkhulu.

Nakuba zombili kwakuyizikhathi zenkohlakalo enkulu engabekezeleki ukuba ayibone uNkulunkulu, futhi isintu ezinkathini zombili sasikhohlakele ngendlela yokuthi saphika uNkulunkulu njengeNkosi, bonke abantu esikhathini sikaNowa babhujiswa nguNkulunkulu. Isintu ezinkathini zombili samdabukisa kakhulu uNkulunkulu, kepha uNkulunkulu uselokhu enesineke nabantu ezinsukwini zokugcina kuze kube manje. Kungani kunjalo? Awukaze ukucabange lokhu?
