Imfihlelo kaHezekile

Ekuqaleni ipapashwe ngoLwesithathu, Juni 11, 2014, 8:47 pm ngesiJamani e www.letztercountdown.org

Uphuhliso phakathi kwenxalenye ewexukileyo yebandla lama-Adventist lukwabonakala kwixilongo lokuqala nelesibini kwelo nqanaba lokutolika. UMzalwan’ uRobert wakwenza kwacaca kakhulu kweyakhe amanqaku akutshanje indlela umba owahlulahlulayo wokumiselwa kwamabhinqa owahlula ibandla waza wakhokelela ekubeni uTed Wilson (ekubonakala) aphulukane namandla obukumkani. UMzalwana uJan waphupha enye ingxaki ebandleni lama-Adventist, endiyikhankanye kweyam NgoJuni 29, 2013 intshumayelo, yaye kwenzeka kanye ngexesha elifanelekileyo. Yayimalunga nokunyuka koxinzelelo lwe LGBT uluntu—abantu abanezinye iingcamango zesini—abazange bayeke kwanto, nkqu necawa yama-Adventist.

IBandla lama-Adventist Litshona Kwisiphithiphithi

Makube lee kum ukubhala isincoko esingesiluleko seBhayibhile kubantu abanobufanasini okanye obunye utyekelo oluchasene nesini esahlukileyo. Ukufunda oko kuthethwa ngumpostile uPawulos kwabaseRoma isahluko 1 kufanele kwanele kuye nabani na. Iqukumbela ngolu hlobo lulandelayo:

bona bathi, besazi kakuhle isimiselo sikaThixo, sokuba abo bazenzayo izinto ezinjalo bafanelwe kukufa, banganeli kukuzenza, basuka bathakazelele nabo bazenzayo. ( Roma 1:32 )

Ukuba umpostile omkhulu weeNtlanga wayebhale oku namhlanje, ngokuqinisekileyo ngewayetyholwe ngokusasaza “intetho yentiyo” nokuhluthwa inkululeko yakhe. Wayeya kutyunyuzwa ukuba abe ngamasuntswana kumatshini wokusila weNew World Order. Nangona kunjalo, ndingathanda ukugxininisa ukuba le ngxelo yakhe ingentla iquka isisombululo saba bantu, esihlala singahoywa ... umgwebo kaThixo, ukufa kunye nokulahlekelwa bubomi obungunaphakade, kuza kuphela kwabo "benza izinto ezinjalo." Yiyo loo nto ndithe kwintshumayelo yam, “Sukuyenza nje loo nto!”

Njengelungu lokufunda kuphela lamaqela eengxoxo ze-Adventist Yahoo kunye nabafundisi kunye nabavangeli basemazweni, ndiye ndakwazi ukulandela indlela izimvo ngaphakathi kwebandla lama-Adventist eziye zaqhubela phambili kwiinyanga ezimbalwa ezidlulileyo ukususela ekupheleni kukaJuni 2013. Kuye kwaba malunga nokwamkelwa kwabantu abagxile kwi-LGBT njengamalungu ebandla lethu ngokuma okupheleleyo kunye nelungelo lokubamba iiofisi zecawa kunye nokumiselwa. Ngaba kufuneka ndikuxelele oko kwaphuma njengoluvo oluphambili lwenkoliso yeenkokeli zeCawa yama-Adventist? Ngaba ndimele ndigxininise into yokuba abo basebenzisa iBhayibhile njengesiseko seembono zabo bajongwa ngabo bonke abanye njengabagwebayo nabangenaluthando?

Icawa yamaSabatha yahlukene, yaye ubukhulu becala inxalenye enkulu yecawa “ivuyiswa ngabo bazenzayo.” Ephupheni lakhe, uMzalwan’ uJan wabona ibhedi yomtshato kumgangatho ongasentla wendlu; indlu ifuzisela ibandla. Ibhedi yayikhal’ ibhungane, kukho amaplanga amabini aphuma kuyo. Esi sibini sahlukene kwaye mhlawumbi “sawuguqula umsebenzi wemvelo waba kokuchasene nemvelo” ( Roma 1:26 ). Ekuphela kwento eyasalayo kulwalamano lweendlela ezintathu phakathi kwendoda nomfazi noKristu olwamiselwa nguThixo e-Eden nolungqamana nomfanekiso Wakhe, yayingumqamelo omhlophe ekubonakala ukuba ungento yanto nelaphu elibomvu, elimela isikhalo esilusizi sobulungisa negazi likaKristu.

Kwinqaku Itshekimate yeCawa yama-Adventist, sachaza oko kwakuya kuthetha ukuba icawa yenza “ngokweBhayibhile” ngalo mbandela. Ukungxamiseka nokuba negalelo kwezi ngxaki kwabangela ukuba uTed Wilson abize ingqungquthela ekhethekileyo eKapa, ​​eMzantsi Afrika. Abathunywa abangama-350 abavela kuzo zonke iindawo zehlabathi bahlanganisana ngoMatshi ukuze bafumanise indlela iCawa yamaSabatha eyayinokukuphepha ngayo ukwaphukelwa yinqanawa kumanzi ayingozi olongamo lukapopu. Ewe kunjalo, uTed Wilson kwafuneka aphinde umphathi wakhe kaSathana, owayesele enze amafanasini abahlobo bakhe ngoJulayi wonyaka ophelileyo. Kweyakhe intetho yokuvula, wakwazi ukuhamba entanjeni phakathi kokudlala i-conservatism kunye nokutshabalalisa ngokuzithandela imilinganiselo yobuKristu bama-Adventist kuluntu lwethu ngokhetho lwakhe lobuchule lwamagama kunye nehlabathi eligcwele iingcamango ezinokolulwa nangayiphi na indlela ofuna ngayo ...

Wayibiza ngokuba "kukungangqinelani kunye nokuziphatha okungalunganga" kwiCawa yama-Adventist ukuba ihlukanise amalungu aqhubayo oluntu lwe-LGBT ukuze aqeqeshe "ngelixa ingabahoyi abo babandakanyeka kwisini sangaphambi komtshato okanye ukukrexeza.

“Sisonke singaboni” yaye ekubeni siya kuqhubeka sinjalo—kuba inkoliso yamalungu ecawa yamaSabatha ayawakhanyela amandla kaThixo—kwafuneka sikuphephe ukukhalimela nabani na owenza izono ezingafaniyo nezethu. Elinjani iqhinga elihle. Ngokungathandabuzekiyo kungekudala siza kuva ngabafundisi nabongameli abangamafanasini kwicawa yethu, beshumayela ivangeli yamalungelo oluntu nokulingana kweMvukelo yamaFrentshi epulpitini. (Funda iSahluko 11 seSityhilelo kunye nesahluko seMvukelo yaseFransi Impikiswano Enkulu... ukuba ungayifumana incwadi.)

Akumangalisi ukuba okuhambelanayo intetho yokuvala kwingqungquthela yokwabelana ngesondo ka-Ella Simmons, usekela mongameli weCawa yama-Adventist yehlabathi, wadibana nentswahla yezandla zikaTed Wilson ngoku obonakala ehluthiwe, owathi (ngokuhanahanisa) walile ukuvuma ukunyulwa kukaSandra Roberts. Nangona uSimmons wagxininisa ukuba "Lo gama sikhusela, sifihla, [kwaye] ewe, sivumela ukukrexeza, ukunganyaniseki, kunye nezinye izono ezalelwe nguThixo ecaweni kwaye ngokukodwa kwiindawo eziphakamileyo, asiyi kukwazi ukufikelela kumalungu ngamazwi ethu enyaniso ukuze kuguqulwe ubomi babo-ngayiphi na indlela," uxelisa nje oko uTed Wilson sele etshilo phakathi kwemigca ngaphandle kwesono kuqala: Ayithethi ngokugwetywa kwaboni. Enyanisweni imalunga nokusinda kwezorhwebo kweCawa yama-Adventist njenge ishishini, lilawulwa ukusuka ngaphandle ngorhulumente kwaye ilawulwa ngabasebenzi bezabelo zoqhelaniso ezahlukeneyo:

Kangangeentsuku ezine iinkokeli zecawe eziphezulu kunye nabameli bommandla baxoxa ngempendulo yecawe kukuziphatha kwabantu abathandana besini esinye xa bejongene nokutshintsha kwenkcubeko yehlabathi eyandayo ekuxhaseni ubudlelwane babantu abathandana besini esinye. Incwadi ethi “Ngomfanekiselo KaThixo: ISibhalo. Ukwabelana ngesondo. Uluntu.” kuxoxwe ingqungquthela into yokuba imiba ye-LGBT iyachaphazela imisebenzi yecawe yengqesho kunye Imisebenzi yeenkqubo zayo zemfundo nezempilo kwinani elikhulayo lemimandla yehlabathi.

Lo ngumqhubi wangempela emva kwengxoxo yokwamkelwa okanye ukungamkelwa kwamalungu angamafanasini okanye iinkokeli ebandleni. Imalunga neshishini kunye nokuthotyelwa kwemimiselo yezabelo zabasebenzi, ngaphandle koko baya kuphulukana nesidima sabo njengenkampani yecawe kunye namalungelo okuxolelwa kwirhafu. Ngoko kwakusengqiqweni ukuba emva kwenyanga kuphela, ngoAprili 24 walo nyaka, lowo udume ngokukhululeka I-Netherlands Union yayiyeyokuqala ukwenza isigqibo “ngokuchasene neCawa yamaSabatha” sokuba iicawa zimele zibe “ziindawo ezikhuselekileyo zabantu beLGBTQ”, nokuba abo “bangasuswa kubulungu.” Esi sigqibo seManyano yaseNetherland sichasa ngokupheleleyo isitatimende esisemthethweni zisiwe kwiiveki nje ezimbini phambi kweNtlanganiso yeNkomfa kaWonke-wonke yasentwasahlobo:

“Akuhambelani nendlela iCawa eyiqonda ngayo imfundiso yezibhalo ukwamkela okanye ukugcina amalungu abo aqhelisela ukuziphatha okubi ngokwesini okungavisisaniyo neemfundiso zeBhayibhile. Akwamkelekanga nokuba abefundisi bama-Adventist okanye iicawa zilungiselele imitshato okanye izibonelelo zomtshato kubantu besini esifanayo”

Njengokumiselwa kwabasetyhini, umdlalo ofanayo udlalwa kwakhona ... Omnye uyaqala, kwaye ekugqibeleni uninzi oluninzi luphela ukuya kwicala elifanayo. Ngokucacileyo, ibandla lahlulwe ngaphakathi kwaye alisakwazi ukuzalisekisa umsebenzi walo wokuvakalisa isigidimi sengelosi yesithathu. Le mibandela isenokuba ayinanto yakwenza nesilumkiso sokungalwamkeli uphawu lwerhamncwa okanye izibetho ezizayo. Khangela indlela ibandla eliphambuke ngayo kwicebo likaThixo ngabo!

Izifundo zeekomiti zokumiselwa kwabasetyhini ziphele ngeseshoni yokugqibela yeentsuku ezininzi ye-TOSC ngomhla wesi-4 kuJuni, 2014. Uphengululo lwaBalindi Ingxelo ithi:

Ilungu elinye le-TOSC laqaphela iqela ukuba ngoLwesithathu, nge-4 kaJuni, yayiyiPentekoste kwikhalenda yamaJuda. Wathi, wayenethemba lokuba ummangaliso wemvisiswano usenokuyiqukumbela le nkqubo yeminyaka emibini yokufunda njengoko amalungu ayecelwa ukuba akhethe isisombululo asithandayo, okanye “Indlela ePhambili,” kumbandela icawa ebijijisana nawo ngaphezu kweminyaka engama-25.

Intetho yelungu lekomiti mhlawumbi yayisisihlabo esibi, kuba iPentekoste yasebhayibhileni yawa ngosuku olulandelayo, ngenxa yokuba ikroba lokuqala lenyanga kwinyanga yokuqala eYerusalem lalingabonakali kwada kwayi-1 ka-Epreli ngokuhlwa ngenxa yomhla we-XNUMX ka-Epreli. 8 ° umthetho—nto leyo engengawo amaKristu okanye ama-Adventist okanye amaYuda anamhlanje angenalo naluphi na ulwazi ngayo. Njengoko uEllen G. White sele etshilo, ibandla (kunye nabo bonke abanye) alazi nesiqingatha senyaniso malunga namasiko amadala amaYuda:

We musa isiqingatha baqonde icebo leNkosi ekuthabatheni oonyana bakaSirayeli ebukhobokeni baseYiputa, baze babakhokelele entlango ukuya eKanan. Njengoko siqokelela imisebe yobungcwele ekhanya kwivangeli, siya kuba nombono ocacileyo kuqoqosho lwamaJuda, kunye noxabiso olunzulu ngoqoqosho lwawo. iinyaniso ezibalulekileyo. Ukuhlolisisa kwethu inyaniso akukapheleli. Siye saqokelelana imitha yokukhanya embalwa kuphela. Abo bangabafundi bemihla ngemihla beLizwi ayiyi kuzicombulula iingxaki zoqoqosho lwamaYuda. Baza ku sikuqonda iinyaniso ezifundiswa yinkonzo yaseTempileni. Umsebenzi kaThixo uthintelwa kukuqonda kwehlabathi icebo lakhe elikhulu. Ubomi bexesha elizayo buya kuyityhila intsingiselo yemithetho uKristu, egutyungelwe ngumqulu welifu, wayinika abantu Bakhe.— Letter 156, 1903, iphe. 2, 3. (To PT Magan, July 27, 1903.)3MR 259.1}

Ivoti yokugqibela iveze iinyaniso ezimbini: eyokuqala, iBandla leSDA lisabhadula entlango, kwaye okwesibini, lahlulwe ngokupheleleyo sisininzi samalungu esixhasa ukumiselwa kwabasetyhini. Iivoti zenziwe ngamalungu angama-94 e-TOSC:

Amashumi amane Amalungu e-TOSC achongwe njengokhetho lwawo lokuqala isikhundla sokuba “Iqumrhu ngalinye elinoxanduva lokubiza abefundisi ligunyaziswe ukukhetha ukuba libe namadoda kuphela njengabafundisi abamiselweyo; okanye ukuba nazo madoda namabhinqa njengabalungiseleli abamiselweyo.”

Amalungu angamashumi amathathu anesibini aye athanda isindululo esingqina “uqheliselo lokumisela/ukugunyazisa kuphela abafanelekileyo abantu kwiofisi yomfundisi/yomfundisi ehlabathini lonke . . . .”

Ukhetho lwesithathu yayilukhetho lokuqala lwe Abathathi-nxaxheba abasi-22. Yathi, “uKristu kuphela kwentloko yecawa,” iphawula ukuba kukho “umzekelo weBhayibhile wokukhokela amadoda, phantsi kobuntloko bukaKristu, kwisigxina somlungiseleli omiselweyo.” Kodwa olu khetho longezelele ngelithi “Sicebisa ukuba iinkokeli zamahlelo ezikumgangatho ofanelekileyo zigunyaziswe ukwenza isigqibo, ngokusekelwe kwimigaqo yeBhayibhile, enoba olo hlengahlengiso [imvume yokumisela amadoda namabhinqa] lunokufaneleka kummandla okanye ummandla wabo.”

Ukuba sibala iqela loku-1 kunye nelesi-3 kunye, amalungu alo angakhange anike voti icacileyo ngokuchasene nokumiselwa kwabasetyhini, sifumanisa uninzi luxhasa ukumiselwa kwabasetyhini: ama-62 ukuya kuma-32 okanye ama-66%. Ngoku isemthethweni ... UTed Wilson uphulukene nedabi lakhe elihlekisayo ngokuchasene nokumiselwa kwabasetyhini, kwaye kulo nyaka uzayo ISeshini yeNkomfa Jikelele eSan Antonio, eTexas, uya kwenza izigqibo ezinika uThixo lonke ilungelo lokuthulula ingqumbo Yakhe ngezibetho kumalungu awexukileyo ebandla leSDA. Baya kube beyigatyile baza bayityeshela yonke into uYesu awayebabonisa yona kwiOrion kangangeminyaka emithandathu.

Umfundi ongakhathaliyo usenokubuza: “Kubhalwe phi kwiOrion ukuba uThixo akakwamkeli ukumiselwa kwamabhinqa okanye abantu beLGBTQ?” Kubhaliwe ekuqaleni kweyokuqala Umjikelo omkhulu weOrion, eyaqala ngo-Oktobha 27, 4037 BC ngokudalwa kuka-Adam, kancinane phambi kokuba iSabatha yokudala iqale. UAdam wadalwa ngokomfanekiselo kaThixo, indoda nenkazana (indoda nomfazi, Genesis 1:27) ngendima yakhe yobunkokeli yomncedi wakhe (Genesis 2:18). Akazange adalwe njengefanasini, okanye ukumkanikazi wokutsalwa, okanye njengomntwana wangoku ophantse abe yedwa-ukukhulisa umntwana, uMnumzana uMama, ngelixa inkosikazi yakhe ihleli kwicala likaTed Wilson ukwenza isigqibo ngekamva leShishini leSDA lamazwe amaninzi.

Imibala eyiNyaniso yeeNkokeli zeSDA

Endaweni yomanyano, kukho iyantlukwano. Kunokuba sithembeke kuThixo, sifumana iinkokeli ezixelela uThixo oko ebecinga ukuba wonile. Oku kundikhumbuza i-comic endiyibone mva nje kuFacebook-ndiyilungisile nje kancinci:

Ngaba ucinga ukuba kuyabaxa kum ukuthelekisa iinkokeli zeSDA “nezidwangube” zamaKatolika? Ngaba ucinga ukuba oko akuyi kuvunyelwa, okanye kuya kukhubekisa? Ngaphandle kwesibakala sokuba ukuziphatha ngokupheleleyo kweenkokeli zeSDA sisithuko kuThixo kwaye iqumbisa ingqumbo yakhe, ndingubani na mna ukuba ndigwebe aba bantu? (Nakuphi na ukufana kwengxelo yam Nye kaPope Francis’ ikwayinto eyenzeka ngamabona-ndenzile.) Akakho omnye ngaphandle kuka-Ellen G. White ngokwakhe owabona kwiphupha awayelinikwe nguThixo ukuba ngenye imini kuya kufika kwinqanaba lokuba iinkokeli zethu zifane kanye “nabasebenzi” baseVatican, kwaye ngokutsho Inkolelo ye-18 esisiseko, wonke umSabatha ekubhaptizweni kwakhe ufanele amqonde njengomprofetikazi...

Ngobo busuku ndaphupha ndinjalo kwi-Battle Creek ejonge kwiglasi esecaleni emnyango wabona inkampani isiya endlwini, ibini ngababini. Babejonge ngqongqo kwaye bezimisele. Ndandibazi kakuhle ndaza ndajika ndavula ucango lwegumbi lokuhlala ukuze ndibamkele, kodwa ndacinga ukuba ndiya kuphinda ndijonge kwakhona. Imeko yatshintshwa. Inkampani ngoku ibonise imbonakalo ye Umngcelele wamaKatolika. Omnye wayephethe umnqamlezo esandleni sakhe, omnye ingcongolo. Kwaye njengoko besondela. Ophethe ingcongolo wayijikeleza indlu, esithi amaxa amathathu: “Le ndlu zithintelwe. Iimpahla kufuneka zithathwe. Bathetha ngokuchasene nomyalelo wethu ongcwele. Uvalo lwandibamba, ndabaleka ndangena endlwini, ndiphuma kumnyango ongasentla, ndazifumana ndiphakathi kweqela, abanye endandibazi, kodwa. Khange ndibenesibindi sokuthetha nabo ndisoyika ukungcatshwa. Ndazama ukukhangela indawo endandinokulila kuyo ndize ndithandaze ngaphandle kokuba ndibonane namehlo anolangazelelo, naphi na apho ndibheka khona. Ndandisoloko ndisithi: “Ukuba nje bendinokukuqonda oku! Ukuba baya kundixelela into endiyithethileyo okanye endiyenzileyo!

Ndalila ndithandaza kakhulu xa ndibona kuhluthwa iimpahla zethu. Ndazama ukufunda uvelwano okanye imfesane kum kwinkangeleko yabo bandijikelezileyo, kwaye ndaphawula inkangeleko yabaninzi endandicinga ukuba bangathetha nam kwaye bandithuthuzele ukuba bangoyiki ukuba baya kujongwa ngabanye. Ndenze ilinge elinye lokubaleka kweso sihlwele, kodwa ndibone ukuba ndijongwe, Ndazifihla iinjongo zam. Ndaqalisa ukulila ngokuvakalayo, ndisithi: “Akwaba bebenokundixelela le nto ndiyenzileyo okanye into endiyithethileyo!” Umyeni wam, owayelele ebhedini kwigumbi elinye, wandiva ukuba ndilila kakhulu waza wandivusa. Umqamelo wam wawumanzi ziinyembezi, yaye ukudandatheka okulusizi kwakuphezu kwam. {1T 577.2–578.1}

Xa uEllen G. White waphupha oku ngentwasahlobo ka-1876, wayehamba nomyeni wakhe kwaye bamisa eOrange kwindlela ebuyela e-Battle Creek. (I-Battle Creek, indawo echazwe ngokucacileyo yesenzo sephupha, ngumzekelo.) Kuyaphawuleka ukuba indawo yesenzo sephupha yachazwa ngokucacileyo njenge-Battle Creek, eyayisisihlalo seNkomfa Jikelele ngoko. Ngaloo ndlela umngcelele wamaKatolika awawubonayo wasekwa ziinkokeli zeNkomfa yeZizwe Ezimanyeneyo. Namhlanje ngamalungu angama-300 eKomiti eLawulayo yeNkomfa Jikelele. Okokuqala wagxininisa ukuba wayebazi kakuhle abantu ababesiza endlwini yakhe, ekubeni wayengekawuboni umngcelele wamaKatolika. Emva koko waphinda wajonga—nto leyo ebonisa ukutsiba kwexesha (kwixesha lethu)—yaye iNkomfa yeZizwe eziManyeneyo yajika yaba ngumngcelele wamaKatolika.

Mhlawumbi sinokungena nzulu kwaye sichonge uhlobo lwamaKatolika u-Ellen G. White waboniswa. Omnye ephethe umnqamlezo omnye ephethe ingcongolo ngesandla. Zombini zibhekisa kuYesu ngokwakhe okanye kwiimbandezelo zakhe...

Amhluba, amnxiba ingubo ebomvu. Bathi, baluka isithsaba sameva, bambeka ngaso entloko. ephethe ingcongolo esandleni sakhe sokunene. aguqa ngamadolo kuye, edlala ngaye, esithi, Vuya, Kumkani wamaYuda! Bamtshicela, kwaye wayithabatha ingcongolo, wambetha entloko. (UMateyu 27: 28-30)

Yandula ke indoda eyayinengcongolo yakhafula indlu ka-Ellen G. White nawo wonke umsebenzi wobomi bakhe nemibhalo yakhe ngentsingiselo (kuba “bathethe ngokuchasene nomyalelo wethu ongcwele”). Ukuba iisimboli ezimbini zokuqala (umnqamlezo kunye nengcongolo) zibonisa ingcamango yokuba u-Ellen G. White wayejongene apha kunye NguYesuyayo, ke iya kucaca ngakumbi. Yeyiphi kwimibhalo kaEllen G. White eyayithetha ngokuchasene “nengcwele umyalelo"?

Yayingumbhalo awathi ngawo ngokwakhe oku kulandelayo:

“Impikiswano Enkulu,” Ngaphezulu kweSilivere okanye iGolide-Impikiswano Enkulu kufuneka kakhulu isasazwe ngokubanzi. Iqulethe ibali lexesha elidlulileyo, elangoku nekamva. Kumagqabantshintshi ayo eziganeko zokugqibela zembali yalo mhlaba, inikela ubungqina obunamandla obuxhasa inyaniso. ndingu ukuxhalaba ngakumbi ukubona ukusasazwa ngokubanzi kwale ncwadi kunayo nayiphi na enye endiyibhalileyo; kuba ngaphakathi Impikiswano Enkulu, isigidimi sokugqibela sesilumkiso ehlabathini sinikelwa ngokucace ngakumbi kunayo nayiphi na enye yeencwadi zam.— Letter 281, 1905.CM 127.1} ….

INkosi indibekele imibandela ebaluleke ngokungxamisekileyo, nefikelela nakwixesha elizayo. Aye athethwa amazwi ngentlawulo Wathi kum, Zibhalele encwadini izinto ozibonileyo nozivileyo, uyihambise ebantwini bonke; kuba ixesha likufuphi apho imbali yexesha elidluleyo iya kuphindwa kwakhona.” Ndiye ndavuswa ngentsimbi yokuqala, neyesibini, okanye eyesithathu ekuseni kukho ingongoma ethile ebethelelwe engqondweni yam, ngokungathi ndithethe ngelizwi likaThixo....CM 128.1} ….

Incwadi Impikiswano EnkuluYehova, ndixabise ngaphezu kwesilivere negolide; kwaye ndinqwenela kakhulu ukuba ifike phambi kwabantu. Ngelixa ubhala umbhalo we Impikiswano Enkulu, ndandisoloko ndibuqonda ubukho beengelosi zikaThixo. Kwaye amaxesha amaninzi le mibono endandiyibhala yayivela kum ngokutsha ngemibono yasebusuku. ukuze ahlaziyeke yaye acace engqondweni yam.— Ileta 56, 1911.CM 128.3}

Unokubona ukuba utshaba luyithiyile kangakanani le ncwadi ngenxa yokuba wafumana uhlaselo olubi lukaSathana xa waqalisa ukusebenza kuyo:

Kwiintsuku ezimbini emva koko, ngoxa sasihamba ngeenqwelo-mafutha esinge eJackson, eMik., salungisa amacebo ethu okubhala nokupapasha, ngoko nangoko ekubuyeleni kwethu ekhaya, incwadi enomxholo othi, “Imbambano Enkulu phakathi kukaKristu neengelosi Zakhe, noSathana neeNgelosi Zakhe,” ngokuqhelekileyo eyaziwa ngokuba “Zizipho Zokomoya,” Umqu. 1. [Qaphela.—Lo mqulu, othetha ngokuwa komntu, icebo lentlawulelo, nembali yebandla ukususela kwixesha likaKristu ukuya emhlabeni omtsha, ungqinelana nenxalenye yokugqibela yeZibhalo zamandulo, 145-295 (uhlelo olutsha). Inxalenye yalo mqulu, njengoko yandiswa kwiminyaka yamva, ngoku ipapashwa ngokwahlukeneyo phantsi komxholo jikelele othi, “The Great Controversy Between Christ and Satan.”] Ndandinjalo ngoko njengesiqhelo.

Ekufikeni kukaloliwe eJackson, saya kuMzalwana uPalmer. Sasisele sisendlini kodwa ixeshana elifutshane, xa, xa ndandincokola noDade Palmer, ulwimi lwam lwala ukuthetha into endandinqwenela ukuyithetha, kwaye lwabonakala lukhulu kwaye lundindisholo. Imvakalelo engaqhelekanga nebandayo yabetha intliziyo yam, yadlula phezu kwentloko yam, yehla ngecala lam lasekunene. Okwexeshana ndaba semandleni, ndavuswa lilizwi lomthandazo onyanisekileyo. Ndazama ukusebenzisa amalungu am asekhohlo, kodwa ayengenamsebenzi kwaphela. Kangangexeshana ndandingalindelanga ukuphila. Yayiyiyesithathu umothuko wam wokukhubazeka; yaye nangona kumgama oziikhilomitha ezingamashumi amahlanu ukusuka ekhaya, andizange ndilindele ukubabona abantwana bam kwakhona. Ndaye ndakhumbula ixesha loloyiso endandilonwabele eLovett's Grove, kwaye ndacinga ukuba yayibubungqina bam bokugqibela, kwaye ndaziva ndixolelwa ukufa.

Sekunjalo imithandazo enyanisekileyo yabahlobo bam yayinyukela ezulwini ngenxa yam, kwaye ngokukhawuleza kwavakala imvakalelo ehlabayo emilenzeni yam, kwaye ndayidumisa iNkosi ukuba ndingayisebenzisa kancinane. INkosi yeva kwaye yaphendula imithandazo ethembekileyo yabantwana Bayo, kwaye amandla kaSathana aphulwa. Ngobo busuku ndabandezeleka kakhulu, kodwa ngosuku olulandelayo ndomelezwa ngokwaneleyo ukuba ndibuyele ekhaya.

Kangangeeveki eziliqela andizange ndiluve uxinezeleko lwesandla okanye awona manzi abandayo agalelwa entloko. Xa ndiphakama ukuze ndihambe, ndandidla ngokugxadazela, yaye maxa wambi ndandiwela phantsi. Kule meko intluphekileyo ndaqalisa ukubhala ngempikiswano enkulu. Ekuqaleni ndandikwazi ukubhala kodwa iphepha elinye ngosuku, aze ke aphumle iintsuku ezintathu; kodwa njengoko ndandihambela phambili, amandla am anda. Ukuba ndindisholo kwentloko yam akuzange kubonakale kuyiphazamisa ingqondo yam, yaye ngaphambi kokuba ndiwuvale loo msebenzi [“Izipho Zokomoya,” Umqu. 1], umphumo womothuko wawundishiyile ngokupheleleyo.

Ngexesha lenkomfa eBattle Creek, ngoJuni, 1858, ndaboniswa embonweni ukuba kuhlaselo lwesiquphe lwaseJackson. USathana wayefuna ukuthabatha ubomi bam, ukuze athintele umsebenzi Bendiza kubhala; kodwa izithunywa zikaThixo zithunyelwe ukundihlangula. Kwakhona ndabona, phakathi kwezinye izinto, ukuba ndifanele ukusikelelwa ngempilo ebhetele kunangaphambi kohlaselo. {I-LS 162.2-163.3}

Ngokuqinisekileyo lo mbhalo, kunye nephupha lomngcelele we-1867, kufuneka ubandakanye ubungqina bokuba icawa yethu ingene ngokupheleleyo Umyalelo “ongcwele” wamaJesuit. Ngoko apho Impikiswano Enkulu ngaba uEllen G. White wathetha ngamaJesuit? Uphando olubanzi lwemibhalo ka-Ellen G. White (malunga namaphepha angama-100,000) lutyhila umphumo onomdla kakhulu ... ngokuthetha ngokubanzi, wathetha ngokuchasene namaJesuit. kuphela in Impikiswano Enkulu (kodwa ngokucacileyo kuloo ncwadi).

Kuyo yonke iNgqobhoko, UbuProtestanti basongelwa ziintshaba ezoyikekayo. Uloyiso lokuqala loHlaziyo oludluleyo, iRoma yabiza imikhosi emitsha, inethemba lokuphumeza oko intshabalalo. Ngeli xesha umyalelo wamaJesuit wadalwa, oyena ukhohlakeleyo, ongathembekanga, nonamandla kuzo zonke iintshatsheli zobupapa. Unqunyulwe kumaqhina asemhlabeni nakwiminqweno yabantu, efile kumabango othando lwendalo, Isizathu kunye nesazela sathuliswa ngokupheleleyo, babengazi mthetho, kungekho qhina, kodwa elo locwangco lwabo, kwaye kungekho xanduva ngaphandle kokwandisa amandla alo. Ivangeli kaKristu yabenzela abalandeli bayo ukuba bahlangabezane nengozi kwaye banyamezele ubunzima, bengothuswa yingqele, yindlala, kukubulaleka, nobuhlwempu, ukuba baphakamise ibhanile yenyaniso ebusweni bomqa, umhadi, kunye nesibonda. Ukulwa nale mikhosi, UbuJesuitism ikhuthaze abalandeli bayo nge Inzondelelo yempambano oko kwabenza banyamezela njengeengozi, bawachasa amandla enyaniso zonke izixhobo zokukhohlisa. Kwakungekho lwaphulo-mthetho lukhulu kakhulu ukuba balwenze, akukho nkohliso isisiseko kakhulu ukuba bayenze, kungekho nanye into efihlakeleyo ekunzima ukuyicinga. Ubhambathise ubuhlwempu obungapheliyo kunye nokuthobeka, [Bona imbonakalo kaPopu Francis] yayilusukelo lwabo ababelufunde kukufumana ubutyebi namandla, nokuzinikela ukusa ekubhukuqweni kobuProtestanti, nasekumiselweni kwakhona kolongamo lukapopu. [jonga umyalezo kapopu oya kuKenneth Copeland kwi Inqaku lokugqibela]

Xa bevela njengamalungu omyalelo wabo, banxibe isambatho sobungcwele, bendwendwela entolongweni kwaye ezibhedlele, ndilungiselela i abagulayo namahlwempu, ezibanga ukuba alishiyile ihlabathi, [Pope Francis: IBandla kufuneka lizilahle izinto zehlabathi] ethwele igama elingcwele likaYesu, owatyhutyhayo esenza okulungileyo. Kodwa phantsi kwalo mphandle ongenatyala ezona njongo zolwaphulo-mthetho neziyingozi ngokufuthi zazifihlwa. Yayingumgaqo osisiseko womyalelo ukuba isiphelo sigwebela iindlela. Ngale khowudi, ukuxoka, ubusela, ukuxoka, ukubulala, ayengaxoleleki nje kuphela kodwa ayencomeka, xa ayefeza izilangazelelo zecawa. Ngaphantsi ezahlukeneyo ezifihlayo amaJesuit asebenza indlela yawo kwizikhundla zombuso, enyuka ukuba abe ngabacebisi bookumkani, kwaye ukubumba umgaqo-nkqubo wezizwe. Baba zizicaka zokuba ziintlola kwiinkosi zabo. Bamisela iikholeji zoonyana babathetheli nabanumzana, nezikolo zabantu abaqhelekileyo; yaye abantwana babazali bamaProtestanti batsaleleka ekubhiyozeleni izithethe zobupopu. Bonke ubukhazikhazi bangaphandle kunye nokubonakaliswa konqulo lwamaRomi kwaziswa ukuze kubhideke ingqondo kwaye kukhazimle kuze kuthimbe intelekelelo, yaza ngaloo ndlela inkululeko ababeyibulalekela oobawo baza bopha yangcatshwa ngoonyana. AmaJesuit azisasaza ngokukhawuleza kulo lonke elaseYurophu, yaye naphi na apho ayesiya khona, kwalandela ukuvuselelwa kobupapa.

Ukubanika amandla amakhulu, kwakhutshwa inkunzi yenkomo ukusekwa kwakhona kwenkundla yokuncina amakholwa. Phezu kwayo nje intiyo ngokubanzi eyayijongwa ngayo, nakumazwe obuKatolika, le nkundla yoyikekayo yaphinda yasekwa ngabalawuli abangamapopu, kwaye inkohlakalo emanyumnyezi kakhulu ukuba ingathwala ukukhanya kwemini yayiphindaphindwa kwizisele zayo ezifihlakeleyo. Kumazwe amaninzi, amawakawaka eentyatyambo zesizwe, abona basulungekileyo nababekekileyo, abona bafundisi bakrelekrele nabafunde kakhulu, abahlonela uThixo nabazinikeleyo, abemi abakhutheleyo nabathanda ilizwe labo, izifundiswa ezikrelekrele, amagcisa anetalente, amagcisa achubekileyo, abulawa okanye anyanzelwa ukuba abalekele kwamanye amazwe.

Ezo yayiziindlela iRoma eyayizicelile ukucima ukukhanya koHlaziyo, ukuyisusa ebantwini iBhayibhile, nokubuyisela ukungazi neenkolelo zamaXesha Obumnyama. Kodwa phantsi kwentsikelelo kaThixo nokusebenza kwaloo madoda abekekileyo awawaphakamisayo ukuba angene ezihlangwini zikaLuther, ubuProtestanti abuzange bubhukuqwe. Kwakungekuko ukuthandwa okanye iingalo zeenkosana ukuba namandla awo. Awona mazwe mancinane, awona angawona mazwe aphantsi, angawona anamandla, aba ziinqaba zalo. YayiyiGeneva encinane phakathi kweentshaba ezinamandla ezaziceba ukuyitshabalalisa; yayiyiHolland kunxweme lwesanti yayo ngaselwandle olusemantla, ijijisana nengcinezelo yaseSpain, ngoko esona kumkani sikhulu nesinobunewunewu kwizikumkani; yayimfiliba, iSweden eyayiyinyumba, eyafumana uloyiso loHlaziyo. {GC 234.2–235.3}

Namhlanje mhlawumbi iya kuba yiParaguay encinane, nabantu bayo abazizigidi ezi-6. Kutshanje ikhuphe a ingxelo karhulumente oluchasene noMbutho waMazwe aseMelika (i-OAS) kunye noxinzelelo lwamazwe angabamelwane akhohlakeleyo aseBrazil naseArgentina. Isiteyitimenti sathi asizukuvumela imitshato yabantu besini esinye apha okanye sinikeze ukulingana kumalungu oluntu lweLGBT. Kwakhona kumele kubekho isizathu sokuba uThixo akhethe eli lizwe lincinane njengesihlalo esitsha setempile yakhe yasemhlabeni intendelezo.

Sibona inkcazo ecacileyo yobupopu bukaFrancis kwisicatshulwa sesilumkiso sika-Ellen G. White ngasentla. Kwanokukhethwa kwegama lakhe likapopu kukhomba kwinkqubo yakhe yokuthobeka njengesigqubuthelo solwaphulo-mthetho olubi oluya kuqalisa ngoku phantsi kolawulo lwakhe. Ungumtshutshisi wamaKristu okwenyaniso oya kugqiba kwelokuba agcine iSabatha ngokuchasene nemithetho yohlanga lwawo nangokunxamnye nezibhengezo zikaKristu wobuxoki oza kufika kungekudala.

Emva kweBhayibhile, eyona ncwadi athiywa kakhulu nguSathana yenziwa yayinto engekhoyo. Yagqwethwa ngokuyinqumla ukusuka kumaphepha angaphezu kwama-700 ukuya kutsho ngaphantsi kwangama-90, yaye oku kwenziwa nguTed Wilson namadoda akhe awayenxibe izambatho ezimnyama, ezanziwa mhlophe baza banikwa isi-7 segolide ngaphambili. Akukho nto ayithethayo uEllen G. White malunga noopopu okanye ngomyalelo wamaJesuit yasindiswa kuyo umlingo. Kwaye, bahlobo, yayiluyilo lolu tshaba lukhohlakeleyo lobuProtestanti ngokwethu kwango-2010, kuba uTed Wilson wayesele ebhengeze ukushicilelwa nokusasazwa kweekopi ezingamakhulu ezigidi “Impikiswano Enkulu” kamsinya nje emva konyulo lwakhe. Thina wabhala ngayo. Wonke umfundi kufuneka azi ukuba lo mbhalo ushwankathelweyo kunye nogqwethekileyo wamaJesuit unegama elihlekisayo Ithemba Elikhulu, kwaye ngoku sele isasazwa ixesha elithile nge-18 yezigidi ezingabonakaliyo ezithengiswe-i-stupid Adventist, mhlawumbi engazange ifunde inyani. impikiswano enkulu.

Le yeyona nkohliso inkulu yeprojekthi ukusukela ekusekweni kwecawe. Babiza iwebhusayithi esemthethweni Iprojekthi yeNgqungquthela enkulu kwaye ubonise i-wannabe Adventist kwi Lasekhaya abangenalwazi malunga nendlela yokunxiba. Banokwahlulwa kwihlabathi nje kancinci njengoko le ncwadi inokwahlulwa kwinoveli ye-esoteric edelelayo ethetha okuthile malunga nokufika komphambukeli oluhlaza onguKristu.

(Abo bangayiqondiyo inkcazo yam malunga nekhowudi yesinxibo kufuneka ngokuqinisekileyo bayifunde incwadi I-Creeping Compromise nguJoe Crews. Lo mseki we Iinyaniso ezimangalisayo-ngokungafaniyo nomongameli wangoku u-Doug Batchelor-ubhale ikhowudi yokuziphatha ye-Adventist yangempela kwaye wayiphakamisa. Ngokuqinisekileyo ibuyela eBhayibhileni kunye nemibhalo ka-Ellen G. White. Awunakukwazi ukufumana ulwazi oluthe kratya kunye nolufutshane malunga nendlela ekufuneka utshintshe ngayo ubomi bakho, ukutya kwakho kunye nempahla yakho ukuze ube ngowe-144,000! Qaphela abafazi: kuya kuba nzima kuwe, kuba ifashoni yanamhlanje ayikufanelanga. Umfazi wam endimthandayo, njengebhinqa eliselula elineminyaka emalunga nama-30 ubudala, walwa waza woyisa umlo owawuchasene nezinto awayezithandayo. Bonke abo bacinga ukuba banokungqengqa ekhefini elunxwemeni bekunye nesiqingatha-okanye abantu abaze ngokupheleleyo begcakamele ilanga baze bakholise uThixo kwangaxeshanye kufuneka ngoku bazilungiselele ukunxiba ngokufudumeleyo iholide yokunyuka intaba endaweni yoko. Kwaye enye into ... ikhowudi yokunxiba ayisebenzi kuphela ngeSabatha ebandleni, kodwa kuyo yonke iveki yomsebenzi. Hayi, uThixo akenzanga lula kuwe, kodwa abo basenalo uthando lwabo lokuqala baya kufumanisa ukuba umthwalo wakhe ukhaphukhaphu.)

Imvuselelo enkulu kunye nohlaziyo olwathi uTed Wilson waluthembisa kwiminyaka emine eyadlulayo yajika yaba licebo lepilisi yokulala yamaJesuit kwimilinganiselo embalwa eseleyo esinayo kwiCawa yama-Adventist. Baphanga isazisi sethu sangaphambili kunye nekamva, esaboniswa ikakhulu kwi Impikiswano Enkulu, yaye benza amaSabatha aba ngabavangeli boncwadi baseRoma. Ndincoma inqaku amanyathelo ukuya eRoma nakubani na ongekayiboni into edlalwayo ngenxa yezi ziqhamo. Apho unokubona indlela amaJesuit angena ngamandla ngayo ecaweni yethu, ngakumbi ngeminyaka yoo-1980. Konke oku kubhalwe kwi Orion kwaye Isitya Sexesha, iincwadi ezimbini zikaThixo zasezulwini, iBhayibhile ebhekisela kuzo Incwadi yaMatywina aSixhenxe kwaye Incwadi yeeNdudumo eziSixhenxe.

Uhlaselo lwesiBini oluneArtillery eNzima

Oko kwakunganelanga kuTed Wilson kunye nabazalwana bakhe be-frat-order. U-Ellen G. White kwafuneka afe ngokupheleleyo, kungekhona nje Impikiswano Enkulu. Neminye imibhalo yakhe kwafuneka inyamalale. Angayenza njani le nto ingumhanahanisi kaPope Francis ukuba iicawe zethu, xa ngaxeshanye wayenomsebenzi wokudlala umongameli obambeleyo?

Akukho mntu ufanele ukujongela phantsi ubuqhophololo bamaJesuit! UEllen G. White uye wayenza yacaca loo nto ngasentla, akunjalo? UTed Wilson akazange nje abhengeze ukuhanjiswa kwezigidi zeekopi ze Impikiswano Enkulu emva konyulo lwakhe, kodwa kwakhona ukuba uya kubuyisela Ellen G. White kwindawo yakhe yemveli. KwiSeshini yeNkomfa kaWonke-wonke e-Atlanta, kwi (e) edumileyo kaJulayi 3, 2010 intetho yakhe yokuqala. Bheka phambili (yokuzonwabisa|umbhalo), wathetha amazwi amakhulu ngokubaluleka kwemibhalo ka-Ellen G. White:

Ngoku, ukubuyela kwiSityhilelo 12:17 nakolunye uphawu olukhulu olwahlula abantu bakaThixo abaseleyo. Sifunda ukuba baya kuba “nobungqina bukaYesu Kristu.” ISityhilelo 19:10 sisixelela ukuba “ubungqina bukaYesu bungumoya wesiprofeto.” Kwaloo moya mnye owashukumisa amadoda angcwele amandulo kwakhona, kule mihla yokugqibela, wavelisa umthunywa weNkosi. Bazalwane noodade bam beBandla lamaSabatha, INkosi isinike esona sipho sikhulu sinokubakho kwiincwadi zoMoya weSiprofetho. Kanye njengokuba iBhayibhile ingekaphelelwa lixesha okanye ingenamsebenzi, ngokunjalo nobungqina bomthunywa kaThixo wexesha lokugqibela. UThixo wasebenzisa u-Ellen G White njengomkhonzi othobekileyo ukunika ukuqonda okuphefumlelweyo malunga neSibhalo, isiprofetho, impilo, imfundo, ubudlelwane, ubuthunywa, iintsapho, kunye nezinye izihloko ezininzi. Masifunde uMoya wesiprofetho, silandele uMoya wesiprofetho kwaye sabelane ngoMoya wesiprofetho. Zininzi iincwadi ezimangalisayo ezinokwabelana ngazo kuquka nencwadi enye ethi Ellen G. White wabonisa ukuba wayenqwenela ukusasazwa ngaphezu kwayo nayiphi na enye, ethi, “The Great Controversy.” Ndiyayibulela iNkosi ngenkululeko yonqulo kweli lizwe nakwamanye amazwe esivumela ukuba sabelane ngenyaniso. UMoya weSiprofetho ungomnye we chonga iimpawu zabantu bakaThixo bemihla yokugqibela yaye isasebenza nanamhlanje njengoko kwakunjalo ngaphambili ngenxa yokuba yanikelwa kuthi lizulu ngokwalo. Njengentsalela kaThixo ethembekileyo, ngamana singangaze sikutshitshise ukukhanya okuxabisekileyo esikunikwe kwimibhalo kaEllen G. White.

Kodwa ngequbuliso ngo-Okthobha 9, 2013 sifunda lo myalezo ulandelayo wothusayo I-Adventist namhlanje:

I-Pacific Press iyaphuma kwiShishini lokuSebenza kwiivenkile zeencwadi

Ndiza kushwankathela ezona ngongoma zibalulekileyo kweli nqaku.

1. I-Pacific Press Publishing Association (eyasekwa ngo-1874), yenye yezindlu ezimbini zopapasho ezisebenzela iNkomfa Jikelele eMntla Melika. Enye yiReview kunye neHerald. I-Pacific Press ibuyisela uxanduva lwee-ABCs ezingama-25 (iivenkile zeencwadi zama-Adventist) emva kwiinkomfa zengingqi ezinike uxanduva kumpapashi kwiminyaka eli-15 eyadlulayo. Ngelo xesha, iivenkile zeencwadi zazingakwazi ukusebenza ngenzuzo.

2. Oku kuthetha ukuba ukuvalwa kweevenkile zeencwadi, ngenxa yokuba azikwazi ukuphila ngokwazo kwaye azixhaswa ngemali. Kungeyiyo iNkomfa Jikelele, okanye umpapashi, okanye ngeenkomfa zasekhaya.

3. Kwenziwa esi sigqibo ukususela ngoDisemba 31, 2013. (Sikwafumene lo mhla kumgca wexesha kwiforum yethu.)

4. Basithethelela isigqibo esisekwe kwinto yokuba ukuziphatha komthengi kucingelwa ukuba kutshintshile ngenxa yetekhnoloji entsha efana ne-Intanethi, ngenxa yoko. ukuhlutha iivenkile zeencwadi isiseko sazo sezemali.

5. U-Adventist owayesebenze kwishishini lokushicilela wathetha into ebonisa ukuba isizathu sokuvalwa silele kwenye indawo. Kwiminyaka eyi-10 kuye kwakho ukuhla kokuthengiswa ngokuthe ngqo kweencwadi ngokuchasene nokuthengiswa kwe-e-book. Kuphela ziivenkile ezithengisa iincwadi ezinendawo elungileyo kunye nentaphane yezithuthi zikawonke-wonke ezisebenza ngokunenzuzo ethe chatha (umzekelo, i-ABC kwiziko lokuthenga eMaryland). Nangona kunjalo, phantse zonke ii-ABC zigcinwe ngaphakathi okanye kufutshane nesakhiwo see-ofisi zeenkomfa zengingqi, apho kungekho zithuthi zikawonke-wonke. Ngaloo ndlela, uthi phakathi kwemigca abayenzileyo iimpazamo ezinkulu zolawulo, kwaye ndithi oku kwenziwe ngabom, njengoko siza kubona.

6. Ndandiqala ngqa ukufunda ngecebo ukuba ezi zindlu zimbini zopapasho zama-Adventist zihlangane. Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, baye bashicilela baza bapapasha ngokuzimeleyo. Kungekudala siza kubona ukuba oku kudityaniswa kuthetha ukuthini kwaye yintoni isicwangciso sokwenene emva kwayo.

Nabani na ocinga ukuba "umgcini" uTed Wilson ngokwakhe akananto yakwenza nayo uyaphazama kwakhona. Wandwendwela i Pacific Press ngo-Agasti ka-2013, yaye ngobuganga bamaJesuit bazijija zonke iingcaphulo zikaEllen G. White ezithetha ngomsebenzi wengelosi yesine ophunyezwa ngokuyintloko “zizindlu zopapasho” neecolporteurs. Nanku umzekelo wesicatshulwa esinye esinjalo:

Kwaye kwiqondo elikhulu ngokusebenzisa izindlu zethu zopapasho kufuneka wenziwe umsebenzi waloo nto enye ingelosi owehla emazulwini enamandla amakhulu Lowo ulikhanyisela ihlabathi ngobuqaqawuli bakhe.

Olundilisekileyo luxanduva oluphezu kwezindlu zethu zopapasho. Abo baqhuba la maziko, abo ngubani ohlelayo balungiselel’ iincwadi, bemi njengoko besenza ekukhanyeni kwenjongo kaThixo, yaye ubizelwe ukulumkisa ihlabathi, baphenduliswa nguThixo ngemiphefumlo yabanye abantu. Kubo, kwanakubalungiseleli belizwi, sisebenza isigidimi esanikelwa nguThixo kumprofeti Wakhe wamandulo: “Nyana womntu, ndikwenze umboniseli kwindlu kaSirayeli; ngoko ke woliva ilizwi emlonyeni wam, ubalumkise ngokuphuma kum. Xa ndithi kongendawo, Inene, uya kufa, mntundini ungendawo; usuke ungathethi wena, ukuba umvuselele ongendawo, emke endleleni yakhe: wofa yena ongendawo ngobugwenxa bakhe; ke igazi lakhe ndolibiza esandleni sakho. Hezekile 33:7, 8T 140.3–4}

Ngayo yonke inkunkuma ethe yathengiswa kwii-ABC ngelixa iincwadi zika-Ellen G. White ziqokelela uthuli kwiishelufu, kuya kufuneka sizibuze ukuba yintoni na inyani yobuthixo "indlu yopapasho". kunye nesigidimi sengelosi yesine, njengencwadi kaDaniyeli yayiyincwadi yebandla leSDA phantsi kwesithunywa sesithathu. UThixo uneendlela zakhe kwaye uvula iindlela ezintsha xa iinkokeli zicinga ukuba zikhuselekile ukutshabalalisa umsebenzi wakhe. Ukubeka kwimbono echanekileyo, amazwi kaTed Wilson asuka ku-Agasti 15, 2013 avakala njengengxelo embi (yenxalenye ewexukileyo yecawa yeSDA) ngoku ezaliseka phambi kwamehlo ethu:

Ngamanye amaxesha izicwangciso esicinga ukuba zinokuba zezona zilungileyo kwimeko ethile, isenokungabi yile nto acinga ngayo uThixo.

Kwintsalela yeli nqaku lePasifiki Press, nangona kunjalo, kunzima ukubona ukuba ukudityaniswa kwezindlu ezimbini zopapasho zama-Adventist kuthetha ntoni ngokwenene, kwaye yiyo loo nto ndingazange ndibhale ngezi zinto ngelo xesha okanye ndifikelele kwizigqibo malunga neziphumo ezizayo. Kodwa kutsha nje njengoko ndijonge kulo mbandela ngakumbi, ividiyo yeYouTube ngo Umfundisi uBrandon Coy ndivule amehlo am. Udlan’ indlebe nomzalwana waseSeventh-day Adventist “osebenza neReview and Herald” (mhlawumbi kwalowo ukhankanywe kwinqaku leAdventist Today).

(Imibhalo engezantsi iyafumaneka.)

Ndizakushwankathela ezona ngxelo zibalulekileyo kwakhona ukuze ukwazi ukubamba umfanekiso omkhulu kunye neziphumo zawo ezimbi:

1. Ekuqaleni, umzalwana ugxininisa oko Ellen G. White wabhala malunga ukubaluleka komsebenzi wopapasho. Usebenzisa isicatshulwa esingasentla malunga nomsebenzi wengelosi yesine kwaye uthi imeko yangoku iyamoyikisa.

2. Uphononongo kunye neHerald ziya kuyeka ngokupheleleyo ukushicilela iincwadi, nangona iya kuqhubeka ikho njengendlu yokupapasha egameni kunye neofisi kwikomkhulu leGC eSilver Spring, MD.

3. Iincwadi zikaEllen G. White-ezifana Umnqweno WamaXesha Adala kwaye Impikiswano Enkulu—azisayi kuphinda ziprintwe.

4. I-Pacific Press, njengendlu yokugqibela yokushicilela ye-Adventist, iya kuthatyathwa yiCandelo laseNyakatho yaseMelika (NAD) kwaye ngoko iya kuba phantsi kolawulo lwayo ngokupheleleyo.

5. Ezi zinto sele zigqityiwe, kodwa kuqhubeke Juni 17, 2014 yonke into isebenza ngevoti. [Lo mhla uya kusikhathaza ngakumbi ngasekupheleni kwenqaku.]

6. Amaziko amabini awayezimele ngaphambili ngoku aya “kufunxwa” yiCawe kumanqanaba awahlukeneyo!

7. SinePacific Press kuphela enokushicilela, kodwa kuya kwenzeka ntoni ukuba umlilo utshabalalisa iPasifiki Press? Ngoko sasingayi kuba nayo indlela yokushicilela uncwadi lwethu okanye yokuba iicolporteurs zilufumane ukuze lusasazwe ebudeni besikhalo esikhulu.

Makhe ndiphazamise udliwano-ndlebe ngokufutshane. Lo mzalwana ubonakala eyazi kakuhle into eyathethwa nguEllen G. White malunga nemililo emibini eyoyikekayo yesanitarium etenxileyo e-Battle Creek kunye nendlu yopapasho yoHlolo neHerald:

xa Battle Creek Sanitarium yatshatyalaliswa [ngoFebruwari 18, 1902], uKristu wazinikela ukuba akhusele ubomi bamadoda nabafazi. Kule ntshabalalo uThixo wayebabongoza abantu bakhe ukuba babuyele kuye. Kwaye ekutshatyalalisweni kwe Uphononongo kunye neofisi yeHerald [ngoDisemba 30, 1902], nokusindisa ubomi, Uyababongoza okwesibini; Unqwenela ukuba babone ukuba amandla okwenza imimangaliso Ongenasiphelo asetyenzisiwe ukusindisa ubomi, ukuze wonke umsebenzi abe nethuba lokuguquka kwaye aguquke. UThixo uthi: “Ukuba bathe babuyela kum, ndobabuyisela uvuyo losindiso lwam. Kodwa ukuba baqhubeka behamba ngendlela yabo, ndiya kusondela ngakumbi; ibe imbandezelo iya kuyifikela imizalwane abathi bakholwa yinyaniso, bangenzi nyaniso, bangamenzi ankwantye uYehova, uThixo kaSirayeli, nokoyikwa kwawo.” {8T102.3}

Embonweni wasebusuku ndabona ikrele lomlilo lijinga phezu kwe-Battle Creek. Bazalwana, uThixo ungakuthi. Ndifuna ukukuxelela loo nto ukuba emva kwezilumkiso ezikhutshiweyo kula matshiso, zithe iintloko zabantu bakowethu zithe zalungisa, njengoko zenzé kwamandulo, ziziphakamise; UThixo uya kuthatha imizimba ngokulandelayo. Njengoko ehleli nje, uya kuthetha kubo ngolwimi abangaluqondiyo. UThixo usijongile ukuba siya kuzithoba na phambi kwakhe njengabantwana abancinci. Ndithetha la mazwi ngoku ukuze size kuye ngokuzithoba nokuzohlwaya, sifumanise ukuba ufuna ntoni na kuthi. {4MR 367.2}

Ndayalelwa ukuba kukho njalo bonakalisa ukungalikhathaleli iLizwi likaThixo, zinikwe ngobungqina boMoya wakhe oyiNgcwele, ukuba iNkosi ijike, ibhukuqe; undwendwela i-Battle Creek nezigwebo zaKhe. . . . Ndiyazi kakuhle iimeko ezikhoyo kuzo zombini iiNkampani zokuPhonononga kunye neHerald Publishing kunye neSanitarium. Ndifumene umyalelo wokuba ezi zakhiwo zikhulu zitshatyalaliswe ngumlilo. Ndiqinisekile ukuba ngaphandle kokuba ulawulo lwala maziko luqhutywa ngakumbi ngokomyalelo kaThixo, kuya kutyhilwa ngakumbi ukungakholiswa kukaThixo. {ukusuka Ubulungiseleli Bokupapasha, iphe. 172-173}

Ngaba lifikile ngoku ixesha lokuba isiprofeto sika-Ellen G. White sizaliseke? Ngaba kukho “ukungakhathalelwa kweLizwi likaThixo” kwiinkokeli zanamhlanje zeSDA? Uzakwehla phi umlilo, xa iReview and Herald ineofisi yayo kwikomkhulu leNkomfa Jikelele ukusuka ngomhla we-17 kweyeSilimela ngowama-2014 ukuya phambili?

Masiqhubeke nesishwankathelo sodliwano-ndlebe:

8. Umbuzo olandelayo ngulo: kuya kwenzeka ntoni kubavangeli boncwadi (iicolporteurs)? Lo mzalwana ubonakala engenakuzinceda, kuba akukho mntu waziyo ukusebenza ngaphandle kokuprintwa kweencwadi. Noko ke, uthi ngokutsho kukaEllen G. White, kuya kubakho umsebenzi wee<em>colporteurs de kuvalwe umnyango wenceba, kodwa kungekhona owabefundisi. Ukwathi indlela yesintu ingasebenza kuphela xa kukho iincwadi. Ukuba akunjalo, ngoko uThixo uya kufumana enye indlela. [Kwaye unento enjalo phambi kwamehlo akho ngoku njengokuba ufunda le migca. Sisebenza imini nobusuku ekupapasheni inyaniso, ezaliswe zizicatshulwa zeencwadi zika-Ellen G. White, ekunika eyona nto ibalulekileyo kwimo egxininisiweyo kuba “into ebesiyifunda iminyaka, kuya kufuneka bayifunde kwiinyanga ezimbalwa.” {EW 67.2}]

9. Njengesizathu sokuvuma kwakhe ukwenza olu dliwano-ndlebe, lo mzalwana uthi iphathelele imiphefumlo eya kulahleka kuba akukho ncwadi iya kushicilelwa. Oku kuphathelele "izinto ezingunaphakade" kunye "nobomi obungunaphakade," kungekhona malunga nemali kunye nemali.

10. Ngenxa yesibakala sokuba “icawa ayixhasi [Uphononongo kunye neHerald] ngendlela yokuba siqhubeke sihamba,” kufuneka sincanywe eso sakhiwo sidala, yaye abasebenzi abaninzi baya kugxothwa. Ukuba ukuPhononongwa bekungayi kuvumelana nesicwangciso seNkomfa Jikelele, ngoko ke ukuwa kwezemali kuya kuba yindlela yodwa eseleyo. [Ngaba ubuyilindele le nto “kuTed Wilson” wakho “othandekayo? EJamani sithi “umntu ubeke umpu esifubeni sakhe.”]

11. Kukho amanani ahlukeneyo okuba bangaphi na abasebenzi abaya kuphulukana nemisebenzi yabo (phakathi kwama-40 ne-100 ebekhankanyiwe). Abanye baya kuya kwi-Pacific Press e-Idaho; abanye baya kuba nomsebenzi kwi-ofisi yokuHlola entsha eSilver Spring, MD. Kodwa abaninzi kuya kufuneka bafumane umsebenzi omtsha.

12. Uphononongo kunye neHerald zazikho kwakudala ngaphambi kokuba ihlelo lifumane igama ngo-1863. Imele i-Adventism iyonke. Ukwenza umsebenzi kaThixo kuthetha ukupapasha uncwadi. Sinokuyiqonda into eyenzekayo ngexesha loovulindlela namhlanje kuphela ngenxa yokuba bayipapasha. ILizwi likaThixo lifikelela eziphelweni zomhlaba ngokupapashwa. Ebuhlungu, wongezelela esithi: “Ngandlel’ ithile, izinto zitshintshile.”

13. "Baza konga imali, kodwa mingaphi imiphefumlo ekuya kufuneka ihlawule iindleko?"

14. IThe Review and Herald yayingeyo “izimeleyo” yeCawe, kodwa yayisenjalo ukuzimela kunye nokukwazi ukuzenzela izigqibo. Oku kuzimela kulahleke ngokupheleleyo ngoku, nangona kunjalo. Sele "ifunxwe," kwaye ngoku iphantsi kolawulo olupheleleyo lweGC. [Umgaqo wamaRoma wegunya lobukumkani uyasebenza apha.]

15. “Sidinga imvuselelo…hayi iinkqubo…sifuna ukuba uThixo enze utshintsho oluthile ezintliziyweni zethu…kuba isiphelo sezinto zonke sisemnyango.” [Ngaloo ndlela uthetha ngobuxoki bukaTed Wilson inkqubo yemvuselelo kunye nohlaziyo. Sibhale malunga naloo nto kwicandelo Phantsi kweFlegi yobuxoki.]

16. Kwakhona lo mzalwana uthandekayo ugxininisa ukuba onke amaqanda afakwa kwingobozi enye. Kodwa kuthekani ukuba iPacific Press iyatshisa? Sele kwenzekile ngexesha lika-Ellen G. White. Ingelosi enekrele elidangazelayo yema phezu kwesanitarium kunye noPhononongo ngo-1902. Kwiminyaka emine kamva, i-Pacific Press nayo yatshisa. Oko kwakungemva nje kokwakhiwa kwakhona emva kwenyikima enkulu yaseSan Francisco. Abantu ngelo xesha baqonda ukuba yayiyimigwebo kaThixo ngenxa yokuphatha kakubi kwabo.

17. Umfundisi uCoy ubuza ukuba yonke le nto ingaba yi-harbinger enokwenzeka yokuphela komsebenzi kunye nokuphela kwexesha, kuba i-Adventism yaqala ngokwenene ngomsebenzi wokushicilela, kwaye ngoku sibona ezi zindlu zivaliwe. Impendulo yalo mzalwana ishiya mathandabuzo: “Ukuba iReview and Herald inokuvalwa, liliphi iziko eliseleyo? Leliphi iziko elingekho sesichengeni? Loma Linda? Inkqubo yethu yonke yokhathalelo lwempilo? Iicawe zethu? Yonke into idibene kakhulu. Akukho kuzimela geqe, akukho kwahlulwa ukuba ukuba ilungu elinye liyatsalwa lize liwe, lingawa lonke. Ke ukuba bayakwazi ukuvala iReview ngenxa yezinto zemali, kuthini ukuba ngeSabatha ezayo akuzubakho nkonzo?” [Siphinde sabhala ngaloo nto kwi Itshekimate yeCawa yama-Adventist.]

18. Umzalwana wethu uhlabela mgama esithi: “[UThixo] akafuni sakhiwo. Ufuna abantu ukuba bafuduke....Oko kwenzeka kumaYuda kubonakala kusenzeka kuthi. Leyo yinkalo eyoyikisayo. Oko kuthetha ukuba xa uMesiya esiza kuthi, sisenokuba singakulungelanga kanye njengokuba babenjalo abantu abeva umvangeli wokuqala efika, kubalusi ababebizelwe entsimini ukuba baye kungena eYerusalem yaye uMesiya wayeya kubaxelela ukuba akukho sigidimi siya kuzalwa kubo. Ukuva isigidimi? Uyakwazi ukubiza ... nabaphi na abanye abantu abavela kuyo nayiphi na enye indawo ehlabathini kwaye ubanike le nyaniso kwaye ubathumele ngaphandle. Ilifa lethu lelomoya. Ilifa lethu asilomzimba. AsingoMaSabatha ngokuzalwa. Kungamava. Uyazi, kufuneka sizalwe ngokutsha, okanye asingobakhe....Ingaba iNkosi...ivala amaziko ethu ngenxa yokungathobeli kwethu? Ngumbuzo wam lowo. Umbuzo wam kum, kunye nombuzo wam wecawa yam. "

19. Umfundisi uCoy ushwankathela kwakhona: “Le vidiyo iphume kumthwalo...ukuvusa [abantu bakaThixo] kubume behlabathi...obu buchwechwela ecaweni yethu...[kwaye] kufuneka sibe nemvuselelo phakathi kwamaqela ethu.”

20. Umzalwana wethu ongumvangeli woncwadi ugxininisa ukuba uYesu uzibonakalisa kwisigidimi saseLawodike njengovulindlela nomvangeli wasemazweni onkqonkqoza emnyango. “Wayengaqali ukunkqonkqoza endlwini yehlabathi. Wayenkqonkqoza endlwini yecawa…Kodwa ukuba ucango luvalwe ngezinto ezininzi ezifunjwe, zininzi iinkqubo ezifezayo. nto, ukuze ungaphumi endlwini yakho, uye kunkqonkqoza naYe ezicangweni… uze waneliseke, utyebile, utyebile, ungasweli nto, uya kuthi ke uKristu afumane umntu ezindleleni nasezindleleni. UYesu unkqonkqoza emnyango wethu. Kwaye Uyakudlula kuthi ukuba asiMvumeli ukuba angene. Kodwa ukuba siyeyisa saluvula ucango, Uthembisa ukungena. Kwaye yingelosi eya kusinika uzuko esiludingayo. U-hayi uzuko lwangaphandle, kodwa utshintsho lwangaphakathi lobomi."

21. Kumthandazo wokuqukumbela, uMfundisi uCoy wenza enye into ebaluleke kakhulu: “Nkosi, kuhlaselwe ubuProtestanti. Siyabona ukuba upopu waseRoma ucele ukuba amaProtestanti achithe, aphelise uHlaziyo lobuProtestanti, aze abuyele kuMama iRoma. Ngeli xesha lobumnyama, Nkosi siyabona ukuba izindlu zethu zokushicilela ziyavalwa kanye ngelo xesha, kwa ngayo iyure esiwadinga kakhulu ukuze sikwazi ukusasaza la maphecana kunye naloo maphepha afana namagqabi ekwindla, siyahlaselwa. Nkosi, ndiyathandaza ukuba wenze le vidiyo incede ukuvusa abantu. Vusa abantu ukuba baqonde ukuba sikwiiyure zokugqibela ngaphambi kokuba uYesu eze…”

Ngoku ndiyakwazi ukuthi “amen” ngentliziyo yam yonke kube kanye. Aba bazalwana babini baye bayiqonda into eyenzekayo, kwaye obu bubungqina bokuba uMoya oyiNgcwele uyasebenza kubo. Kufuneka unikele ingqalelo kwakhona! Okokuqala iingxaki ezigqubayo ecaweni zicaca kubo bobabini. Bayancwina kwaye bakhale ngayo ngenxa yothando lwabo ngoYesu kunye nemiphefumlo esengozini yokuphulukana nobomi babo obungunaphakade. Emva koko omabini ngequbuliso agxininisa ukuba isiphelo sisondele. Nabani na okufutshane nokufumanisa ingelosi yesine uya kufumanisa ngokukhawuleza ukuba sikufuphi kangakanani na ekupheleni kwexesha kulo mhlaba. Oku kufuneka kube nesizathu sokuba umfundi ofanelekileyo azifumanele ngokwakhe.

Upelo oluphindwe kathathu

Khumbula inqaku eliphambili kwiphupha lika-Ellen G. White, xa iNkomfa yeZizwe eziManyeneyo yaguquka yaba ngumngcelele wamaKatolika phambi kwamehlo akhe...

Inkampani ngoku ibonise imbonakalo ye Umngcelele wamaKatolika. Omnye wayephethe umnqamlezo esandleni sakhe, omnye ingcongolo. Kwaye njengoko besondela. Ophethe ingcongolo wayijikeleza indlu, esithi amaxa amathathu: “Le ndlu zithintelwe. Iimpahla kufuneka zithathwe. Bathetha ngokuchasene nomyalelo wethu ongcwele. {1T577.2}

Umlingo owaphoswa phezu kwendlu ka-Ellen G. White wavakaliswa amaxa amathathu. Oku kubonisa amanqanaba amathathu uhlaselo ngokuchasene nobungqina bomprofetikazi. Sele siqaphele ezimbini kuzo: uhlaselo Impikiswano Enkulu kunye nokuyekwa kokushicilela iincwadi zakhe. Yintoni enye enokucwangciswa?

1. A Amagqabantshintshi eBhayibhile eNtsha, ehlelwe ngumJesuit ogama linguÁngel Manuel Rodriguez

As Impikiswano Enkulu yanqunyulwa ngaphaya kokuqondwa, ngoko kwenzeka kumsebenzi wethu wemiqulu esixhenxe okanye esibhozo, ehlala iluncedo kakhulu kwaye ibonakala ingatshintshanga ukususela kwiminyaka yamashumi amahlanu. “Ngesifundiswa” esiphambili u-Ángel Manuel Rodriguez njengomhleli “weqela lezizwe ngezizwe labaphengululi bama-Adventist,” baye benza uAzazel umgadi wegadi! (Khawufane ucinge ukuba bekuya kwenzeka ntoni xa ukhulula ibhokhwe egadini yakho.) Njengomongameli weBRI kangangexesha elide, umsebenzi wakhe uye wavelisa iziqhamo zamaJesuit kuphela nokugatywa ngokupheleleyo kwesigidimi seOrion. Inkcazo entsha iya kuba kuphela a Ongatshatanga ivolumu, nto leyo ebonisa ukuba bazakucima kangakanani kwakhona ukwenza i-theology yethu ihambelane nentshukumo ye-ecumenical.

Ixesha lithetha kakhulu, nangona kunjalo. Babhengeza le nkcazelo intsha yeBhayibhile ngoAprili 24, 2013, kwiintsuku ezintathu ngaphambi kokuba i<em>gamma-ray igqabhuke njengomlilo. Umqondiso kaYona kwiBandla eliwexukileyo (kunye nesiqalo sesithathu sokugqibela se Isitya Sexesha). Ibekwe ixesha ngokuhambelana ngokupheleleyo ne ucwangciso lweVatican. Ngorhatya lwaloo mini, sabamba iSidlo seNkosi sangokuhlwa esingcwele sePasika yokwenyani ka-2013, ngelixa ibandla leSDA lazisa eli cebo litsha likaMtyholi. Iya kuqalisa ukuvelisa isiqhamo NgoJulayi we2015 ngexesha leSeshini yeNkomfa Jikelele eSan Antonio, emva kokuba into ipapashwe. Umhla wokubonakala kwayo kwiSeshini yeNkomfa Jikelele (Julayi 2-11, 2015) ihambelana ngokugqibeleleyo nokuqala kwexilongo lesithandathu kunye nokukhululwa kwemimoya emine (Julayi 8, 2015). Kakade ke, akusayi kuphinda kubekho umqulu 7-A, owawushwankathela onke amagqabaza kaEllen G. White ngeBhayibhile. Ilifa lika-Ellen G. White liya kuba waqalekiswa okwesithathu.

2. The "ukuxela" yazo zonke iincwadi zikaEllen G. White

Oko abaninzi basenokucinga ukuba yintsikelelo nako kunokubuyisela umva, ngakumbi ukuba imbopheleleko ibekwe ezandleni ezingafanelekanga. Uninzi lwama-Adventist lusenokungazi nokuba inxalenye ebalulekileyo yemibhalo yoMoya wesiprofetho ilawulwa yi Ellen G. White Estate kwaye ayizange yenziwe ifumaneke esidlangalaleni. Abo bayaziyo kudala befuna i-database yoluntu ngokuvakalayo. Bafuna ukubona le mibhalo kwi-Intanethi. Imalunga nokuskenwa kwemibhalo-ngqangi yemibhalo epapashiweyo kunye nemibhalo-ngqangi emininzi engazange ipapashwe.

Kunzima kum ukufumana i-engile efanelekileyo apha ngaphandle kokubeka uMoya weSiprofetho, lowo u-Ellen G. White ngokungathandabuzekiyo wayenawo, ekukhanyeni okungalunganga. Ndimele 100% emva koko u-Ellen G. White wathi! Kodwa ngokutolika okuphosakeleyo kwabazalwana noodade bethu kunye neengxelo zabo ezingenasiseko ngokuchasene nokubeka ixesha (bona Ilizwi leNgcebiso), siyazi ukuba imibhalo yakhe inokusetyenziswa chasene ukukhanya kwesesine isithunywa. Iincwadi zakhe zihlala zisetyenziswa chasene inyaniso nakwezinye iinkalo. Bamenza ukuba athethe izinto ebengakhange azithethe, kuba bayikrazula imibhalo yakhe ngaphandle komxholo. Emva kokuba ebhale kwaye epapashe amaphepha angaphezu kwe-100,000 ebomini bakhe, ngummangaliso ngokwawo ukuba kukho ukuphikisana okumbalwa okubonakalayo kuyo. Kodwa naloo nto inika ukutya okwaneleyo kumakhulukhulu e-anti-Ellen G. White websites.

Abalawuli be-Ellen G. White Estate ngokuqinisekileyo babesazi ebudeni beminyaka eli-100 emva kokufa komprofetikazi, isizathu sokuba imibhalo ethile ingafanele yenziwe ifumaneke esidlangalaleni. Umzekelo, kukho amakhulu ezithuba kwiforum yethu yokufunda, apho siye saxoxa ngokuzaliseka okunokwenzeka kwesiprofetho kunye namalungu ethu kwaye sazama ukufumanisa ukuba icebo likaThixo libandakanya namaxesha angakumbi. Leyo yiseshoni yokucingisisa ngengqondo enganyanzelekanga ukuba “iphefumlelwe”. Ngelixa sikholelwa ukuba izinto zethu ezipapashiweyo ziphefumlelwe nguThixo, amanqaku amaninzi eeforamu zethu ngokuqinisekileyo azikho kwaye ziqulethe iimpazamo ezaziwayo, nto leyo eqhelekileyo ngokupheleleyo. Siwashiya loo manqaku ukuze abhale ukukhangela kwethu okunyanisekileyo ngenyaniso, evulekele ukuhlolwa kwamalungu ethu eforum eneenjongo ezintle. Inkqubo yokufumana inyaniso yindinisa kwaye inzima. Kukho nemibhalo-ngqangi kunye nedrafti evela kum engekapapashwa kuba ndibona ukuba ndibhale ngakumbi ngokubandezeleka okwabangelwa libandla umphefumlo wam, kunokuba kuzaliseke umsebenzi kaThixo wokulumkisa ibandla.

Kodwa ukuba iintshaba zethu bezinokubona zize zipapashe ezo ncwadi, ngoko ukunikezela kwazo ngendlela ekhohlakeleyo ngophando oluneenjongo ezintle okanye iileta zangasese ngokuqinisekileyo zinokubangela umonakalo omkhulu. Ukuthetha ngokuphandle: ngokobuqu, andicingi ukuba ibandla elikreqileyo linecebo elinyanisekileyo nelinenjongo entle emva kokukhululwa ngephanyazo kwayo yonke imibhalo ka-Ellen G. White. Ngapha koko, ndiyakrokrela ukuba bafuna ukondla abachasi be-Adventism ngezinto ezingakumbi. Ndicinga ukuba umphumo wokwenyani wokubhengezwa kwayo yonke imibhalo ka-Ellen G. White iya kufana neNkomfa Jikelele emelwe nguTed Wilson malunga nenzuzo enkulu ye-Adventism eya kuba kukusasaza izigidi zeekopi Impikiswano Enkulu ngexesha lokuhlala kwakhe: yaphela kwi-debacle yokusasazwa kwencwadana Ithemba Elikhulu. Ekugqibeleni bafuna ukubamba uMoya weSiprofetho ukuba bahlekise. Uninzi lwama-Adventist asathembekile anokuba nethemba lentetha entle okanye ecacileyo yomprofetikazi, kodwa oko ngokuqinisekileyo akusayi kuzalisekiswa yiNkomfa kaWonke-wonke elingana nomngcelele wamaJesuit. Ngokuqinisekileyo uThixo wayeya kuqinisekisa ukuba ngaphezulu kwemibhalo yoMoya weSiprofetho yayipapashiwe kule minyaka ilikhulu idlulileyo ukuba yayilicebo lakhe elo.

Kwakhona, ixesha inika umdla kakhulu! Sisicwangciso esintsonkothileyo esinamanqanaba amaninzi, esabhengezwa yiWhite Estate kwangexesha nge-10 kaJuni ka-2013. Besilungiselela iSabatha ePhakamileyo yePentekoste yomhla we-15 kaJuni ka-2013. Isaqhwithi yaqhambuka ngenxa yethu, ummeli weBandla lama-Adventist, yaza yancothula umthi omkhulu njengomfuziselo womkhiwane ogawulweyo kaLuka 13. Ngoku sisondela kwisikhumbuzo seso siganeko! (Funda umzekeliso!)

Ekwindla ka-2014 (ekuqaleni kwexilongo lesithathu) i-website ezinikeleyo iya kuqaliswa ukupapashwa. Ukunikezelwa kweziko elitsha labatyeleli kucwangciswe kwiSeshini yeNkomfa Jikelele ngoJulayi 2015, kunye nokubonakala kwencwadi entsha yonyaka ngo-Ellen G. White kunye nezinye izinto ezincinci.

Olona bhengezo lokwenene aluyi kuqhubeka de kube nguJulayi 16, 2015 yaye luya kubandakanya amanyathelo aliqela de kube nguNovemba 26, 2015. Ngaloo ndlela konke “okubhengezwa” kuza kuthabatha iinyanga ezintathu ngaphambi kwexesha lezibetho (ngo-Oktobha 25, 2015) yaye kuya kuphela ngexesha lezibetho. Elo xesha elimisiweyo ngokuqinisekileyo alikhethwanga ngokuthandabuzekayo. AmaJesuit awazi kakuhle uMyalezo weOrion neSikhephe Sexesha, yaye ayawazi owona mhla i-144,000 emele ukutywinwa ngawo. Yiyo loo nto beya kuqalisa olo hlaselo lukhulu lokugqibela ngelo xesha. Kweli nqaku kuya kufuneka sicingisise nzulu ngexesha abafanele batywinwe ngalo ngokwenene abali-144,000 XNUMX.

Nangona kunjalo, oko akwanelanga ukupela kathathu ...

I-Adventist Review yabika isiganeko esimangalisayo ngoMeyi 20, 2014, kunye nesihloko INtlanganiso Engazange Ibonwe Ivavanya Ubume boBuvangeli beCawa. “Intlanganiso eyimbali yeenkokeli zolawulo zeCawa yama-Adventist kuMntla Merika” yaqhutywa ngoMeyi 13-15 eWashington “ukuze kuxutyushwe ngekamva lecawa nokwakheka kwayo, intlangano nobuthunywa bayo.”

Iziqinisekiso zabo ziphantse zavakala zihlekisa xa i-95% yeenkokeli zolawulo zabhengeza-xa zibuzwa-ukuba ziyakuvuma ukushiya iiofisi zabo ukuba ziya kukhonza ubufundisi beCawa. (Akukho mntu apho okholelwa ngokwenene ukuba oko kuya yimfuneko. Sele bekwiphenyane laseRoma.)

Ngoko nangoko uDan Jackson wanikela indumiso yakhe kwabo “bameli bahlonel’ uThixo” ngala mazwi: “Lo moya wokuzincama ubonakalisa umnqweno wokwenene wokuhlolisisa ngokunyanisekileyo iinkqubo zethu zangoku zentlangano nezobuvangeli nendlela ezifuna ukulungiswa ngayo ukuze iCawa yama-Adventist ifaneleke ngakumbi kuluntu lwethu kule nkulungwane yama-21.”

Ngaba unayo nayiphi na ingcamango yokuba le nto ingantoni okwangoku?

I-NAD evukela ngokupheleleyo ijonge indlela yokudibanisa ngcono kunye nentshukumo ye-ecumenical! Ngenxa yaloo njongo, izinto eziphambili ngokubaluleka a isicwangciso samacandelo amathathu ngoku zinikezelwe, ukuba zifundwe kwaye kunikwe ingxelo ngazo kwiNtlanganiso yokuphela konyaka ye-NAD kwi-2014.

Isangqa esenziwe ngengcongolo sabizwa ngokuba "Ukubumba i-NAD yangoMso" kwaye ukupela kathathu kwaba ngolu hlobo lulandelayo:

1. “Phuhlisa a Isicwangciso sokuthengisa kwiAdventism ebotshelelwe ku imvakalelo ecacileyo yobuntu bethu, ukuxhobisa amalungu ukudibana noluntu lwehlabathi kuquka ukuvula iicawa zethu iiyure ezininzi ukuba iyafumaneka kuluntu lwasekuhlaleni;”

Ithetha ntoni le nto? Ngaba i-Adventism yayingeyonto ilungileyo? Ngaba sineentloni ngobuni bethu, ukufuna entsha? Kuthetha ukuthini ukunxulumana nabantu behlabathi? Ngaba siye saba ngabezopolitiko namabhunga esixeko, kwaye ngaba sinikela ngeeholo zethu zokuhlangana kumaqela ezopolitiko, ukuze asiphathe kakuhle kumthetho weCawe? Ndiba buhlungu sisisu ndibhala ngayo! Umntu akanakuyikholelwa into ethethwa apho!

2. “Yenza izindululo ezichaza iindlela abaphathi kunye nabaphathi becawe abanokuthi bazenze ukulungelelanisa imisebenzi kunye nokuphelisa uphindaphindo apho kungekho mfuneko kuwo onke amanqanaba;

Oku kuthetha ulawulo olupheleleyo ukuya kwilungu ngalinye kwinto enokwenziwa ngumntu ngamnye kwindawo yakhe yobuthunywa. Akukho mzamo wokuzenzela uya kuze uvunyelwe ngaphandle kokubekw' esweni ngokuthe ngqo kweenkokeli zecawe. Phambi kokuba unikeze isifundo seBhayibhile kummelwane wakho, kuya kufuneka uqale ungenise ifomu kwicawe yakho yasekhaya, apho iya kuthi iqwalaselwe yonke indlela ukuya kutsho kubunkokeli beNAD ukubona ukuba injongo yakho ayinakufezekiswa ngokulula ngakumbi ngevidiyo ecumenically eveliswe yiCawe. Emva konyaka, uya kufumana ividiyo oza kuyinika ummelwane wakho osele ephethwe sisilonda sesibetho sokuqala. Igunya lobukumkani baseRoma alipheli nto!

3. “Yabela ikhomishini emele umngeni wokuphonononga ubuncinci iimeko ezintathu ze ukwabiwa ngokutsha kwenkxaso yemali evela kumalungu ukuhambisela phambili umsebenzi wecawa.”

Ngoku bakwaphanga nezishumi neminikelo evela kuThixo kwaye bathetha ngokwabiwa kwakhona kwemali. Akukho lizwi malunga no-Ellen G. White kunye nento ayithethayo. Ewe ikwamalunga nemvukelo evulekileyo ngokuchasene neNkomfa kaWonke-wonke, ezithatha njengekuphela “kovimba wemali kaThixo”. Naleyo ayilunganga. Unokuwubona umsantsa ongaphakathi ebandleni. Xa kufikwa kwimali, ngokuqinisekileyo baya kuxhobisa iibhombu zabo zeathom kuba uTed Wilson akazi kuxolelwa okanye nosizi ngalo mbandela, nokuba akazenzisi. Mhlawumbi, mhlawumbi, umntu uya kufumana ingcamango yokuba ngubani ngokwenene ofanele ukufumana izishumi neminikelo, kwaye ngubani onegunya lokuba Ilizwi likaThixo kule mihla yokugqibela. Ndide ndadibanisa uxwebhu lwangaphandle kumba wesishumi neminikelo, ekubeni isihloko singaphaya kwemida yeli nqaku.

Xa u-Ellen G. White wabona emaphupheni akhe konke oku kubandezeleka kunye nokungcatshwa kwalo lonke ilifa lethu lama-Adventist kunye nesazisi njengabantu bakaThixo, ukusabela kwakhe kuyaqondakala kakhulu:

I walila kwaye ndathandaza kakhulu xa ndibona izinto zethu zohluthwa. Ndazama ukufunda uvelwano okanye usizi ngam kwinkangeleko yabo bandijikelezileyo, ndaphawula inkangeleko yabaninzi endandicinga ukuba bangathetha nam bandithuthuzele xa bengoyiki ukuba bangajongwa ngabanye. Ndazama nje ukubaleka kweso sihlwele, kodwa ndibona ukuba ndijongwe, ndazifihla iinjongo zam. Ndaqalisa belila ngokuvakalayo, besithi: Ukuba bebenokundixelela into endiyenzileyo okanye into endiyithethileyo! Umyeni wam, owayelele ebhedini kwigumbi elinye. wandiva ndilila wandivusa. Umqamelo wam ubu ndimanzi ziinyembezi, kwaye ukudandatheka okulusizi kwemimoya kwakuphezu kwam. {1T578.1}

Umbuzo omkhulu abanawo onke amaSabatha anyanisekileyo nakhalayo ngulo: Ngaba uThixo uya kukujonga konke oku ngokungohlwaywa ixesha elide engenzanga nto ukuhlambulula ibandla lakhe? Kwaye ngubani oya kuma xa oku kuhlanjululwa kuqala, eyaziwa ngokubanzi njenge ukungcangcazela kwiAdventism. Kuyo nayiphi na imeko, uEllen G. White wancwina walila malunga nemeko embi awayibonayo ebandleni ngemihla yokugqibela. Oku kusikhumbuza ekuphela kweqela labantu kwisiprofeto sikaHezekile isahluko 9 abafumana umqondiso ebunzi, baze ngaloo ndlela basinde kwindyikityha enkulu:

Wathi uYehova kuye, Canda esazulwini somzi, esazulwini seYerusalem, ubeke uphawu emabunzini amadoda anxaxhileyo. ncwina kunye nesikhalo ngenxa yamasikizi onke awenziwayo esazulwini sayo. (UHezekile 9: 4)

Amadoda aphethe izixhobo zokuxhela

Masiqale ekuqaleni... Umbono kaHezekile, esiza kuwuqwalasela ngoku, uqala kwisahluko 8 ngembonakalo yendoda echazwa ngolu hlobo:

Ndabona, nantso into efana nendoda ukubonakala kwayo; kuthabathele esinqeni sayo kwehla, ingumlilo; kuthabathele esinqeni sayo kunyuse, ngathi kukubonakala kokukhazimla, ngathi yimbonakalo yegolide evuthiweyo. ( Hezekile 8:2 )

Ingxelo yethu yeBhayibhile (omdala) inika ingxelo yokuba uHezekile wanikwa enye i-theophany apha, nto leyo ethetha into engaphantsi kokuba uYesu ngokwakhe wabonakala apha. UnguLowo kwiDivine Trio echongwa ngemo yakhe yomntu. Thabatha nezinye iingcaciso eziyelelene ngoKrestu nazo, ngomlilo nentlaka (umz. IsiTyhilelo 1:14).

Ebudeni beSahluko 8, uYehova ubonisa umprofeti wakhe uHezekile amasikizi amanyumnyezi awayesenziwa eYerusalem nasetempileni Yakhe.

Wolula into emilise okwesandla, wandibamba ngesihlwitha sentloko yam; umoya wandifunqula phakathi komhlaba nezulu, wandizisa emibonweni kaThixo ukuya Yerusalem, emnyango wesango eliphakathi, elibheke ngasentla; iphi isihlalo sika umfanekiso wekhwele eliwuxhokonxayo. (UHezekile 8: 3)

Ngaloo ndlela umprofeti usondela ngokusondela ngakumbi kwingcwele kaYehova. Kwesi sahluko siya kungqina ukwanda kwentshutshiso kwibandla likaThixo, njengoko sele sikhankanyile kwintaphane yamanqaku asele ekhona kwaye kwakhona kweli.

Incopho yowexuko namasikizi ichazwa kukufikelela ekungeneni kwetempile ngolu hlobo lulandelayo:

Wandisa entendelezweni ephakathi yendlu kaYehova, nanko, emnyango wetempile kaYehova, phakathi kwevaranda nesibingelelo, kukho phakathi kwevaranda nesibingelelo. amadoda amalunga namashumi amabini anesihlanu. beyinikele umva itempile kaYehova, ubuso babo bubheke empumalanga; baqubuda elangeni ngasempuma. Wathi kum, Ubonile na, nyana womntu? Kuyinto elula na kwindlu kaYuda, ukuba benze amasikizi abawenzayo apha? ngokuba belizalisile ilizwe ngogonyamelo, babuye bandiqumbisa; Nam ndiya kwenza ngobushushu; aliyi kuba nanceba iliso lam, ndibaconge; nokuba badanduluke ezindlebeni zam ngezwi elikhulu, andiyi kuva. (UHezekile 8: 16-18)

Ngaba ayinomdla ukuba ukusukela ngo-1901 kukho malunga namashumi amabini anesihlanu amadoda aquka iKomiti eLawulayo yeNkomfa Jikelele, ngubani eneneni onelizwi kunye nomongameli?

IKomiti eLawulayo yale [SDA] iNkomfa iya kuba ngamashumi amabini anesihlanu ngenani… (1901 General Conference Bulletin, iphepha 379, inqaku lesi-4, icandelo 1, ikholamu 1, umhlathi 2)

Abaninzi banokuphikisa ukuba iKomiti Elawulayo ngoku inamalungu amalunga nama-300 - 400, kodwa eneneni kukho elinye iqela elincinane elilawulayo phezu kwabo, kwaye libandakanya kuphela malunga amalungu angamashumi amabini anesihlanu yesangqa esingaphakathi sabanquli belanga abangamaJesuit ngokupheleleyo, kanye njengokuba isibhalo seBhayibhile sisithi “malunga”:

“Apha kwiNkomfa kaWonke-wonke, eyona komiti iphezulu yokwenza izigqibo, ngokuqinisekileyo, yiKomiti yeNkomfa Jikelele [IKomiti eLawulayo]. Kukho ikomiti esiyibiza ngokuba 'ngamaGosa eNkomfa Jikelele' eyenziwe ngayo malunga namashumi amabini anesihlanu okanye amashumi amabini anesithandathu--umongameli, oonobhala, kunye noonondyebo, kunye nabanye abambalwa abamenyiweyo. Le komiti yikomiti yohlulo emisela izinto ekufuneka ziye kwiKomiti yeNkomfa Jikelele.” Ileta evela kwiOfisi kaMongameli weNkomfa Jikelele yamaSeventh-day Adventists, BE Jacobs--uMncedisi woLawulo kuMongameli, ngomhla woku-1 kuNovemba ka-1990.

Akukho nokuba i-Bible Commentary yethu endala ifumana inkcazo yembali okanye yeklasikhi kubantu be-25, ngoko kufuneka sicinge ukuba u-Ellen G. White wayechanekile kwakhona xa wathi abaprofeti baprofeta ngaphantsi kwexesha labo kuneyethu {CTr 357.2}. Ke, njengoko sihamba noHezekile kwiSahluko 8 ukusuka kwiindonga zesixeko saseYerusalem / eRoma apho isikizi lika "Jesuit Pope Francis" liye lamiswa ukususela kunyulo lwakhe ngo-Matshi 13, 2013, edlula ubuProtestanti obuwexukileyo kunye nama-70 Kenneth Copelands etshisa isiqhumiso ngomlilo ongaqhelekanga kunye nezirhubuluzi ezinqulayo, ezifikelela kwisango letempile okanye i-Tamuzdayidi edlula isango letempile okanye i-Tamuzneded kwisango letempile. yeNeo-Adventism ekungeneni kwesango, esiza kwintendelezo engaphakathi yendlu yeNkosi kunye nabangcatshi bayo abamalunga namashumi amabini anesihlanu abantu be-Advent emnyango wetempile, ngoko ingqumbo kaThixo iya kuthululwa kwicala elichaseneyo-ukusuka ngaphakathi ngaphandle-phezu kwawo onke amaKristu awexukileyo nazingcayo...

Ngokuba lifikile ixesha lokuba umgwebo mawuqale endlwini kaThixo; Ukuba ke iqala ngathi, koba yintoni na ukuphela kwabo bangazilulameliyo iindaba ezilungileyo zikaThixo? (Funda eyoku-1 kaPetros 4:17.)

Iinkokeli kunye nabashumayeli be-Adventism yanamhlanje bayawuphepha umbandela kaHezekile 9. Ngaloo ndlela yinyani eyaziwa kancinci ebandleni ukuba uEllen G. White usisebenzisa esi sahluko ngokuthe ngqo ebandleni. Uprofeta ngokungagungqiyo ukuba iqela eliwexukileyo lecawe “elingancwiyo kwaye lilile” liya kubandezeleka kanye njengoko amazwi amabi kaThixo ngokwakhe aye asoyikisa...

Abo bemi kwicebo likaThixo ngeli xesha? Ngaba ezo abathi kanye kanye ababuthethelelayo ubugwenxa phakathi kwabo bathi bangabantu bakaThixo, nabambombozelelayo ezintliziyweni zabo, ukuba abathanga ekuhleni, nxamnye nabo baya kusohlwaya isono? Ngaba ngabo bamelana nabo baze bavelane nabenzi bobubi? Akunjalo! Ngaphandle kokuba bayaguquka, bawushiye umsebenzi kaSathana ekucinezeleni abo banomthwalo womsebenzi [Ngubani onolu xanduva namhlanje?] nasekuphakamiseni izandla zaboni eZiyon; abasayi kuze bafumane uphawu lokutywinwa kwenkoliseko kaThixo. Baya kuwa ekubhujisweni kwabangendawo; imelwe ngumsebenzi we Ntlanu amadoda aphethe izixhobo zokuxhela. Phawula le ngongoma ngenyameko: Abo bamkela uphawu olunyulu lwenyaniso, basebenza kubo ngokholo amandla oMoya oyiNgcwele, amelwe luphawu yindoda yelinen, ngabo “bancwinayo nabakhala ngenxa yamasikizi onke enziwayo” ebandleni. Uthando lwabo ngobunyulu nembeko nozuko lukaThixo lunjalo, yaye banalo imbono ecace gca yesono esigqithileyo, kangangokuba babonakaliswe besezintlungwini, bencwina, belila. Funda isahluko sesithoba sikaHezekile.

Kodwa ukubulawa ngokubanzi kwabo bonke abo bangawuboniyo ngaloo ndlela umahluko obanzi phakathi kwesono nobulungisa, yaye bengaziva njengabo bemiyo kwicebo likaThixo baze bamkele uphawu, kuchazwa ngolungelelwano oluya kuYesu. amadoda amahlanu anezixhobo zokuxhela; Xelani emva kwayo phakathi komzi, nixabele, iliso lenu lingabi nanceba, ningacongi; amadoda amakhulu, amadodana nomthinjana, nabantwana, nabafazi; niqale engcweleni yam. {3T 267.1–2}

Gcinga ezingqondweni:

1. Isicatshulwa siyasebenza kwixesha lethu nakwibandla leSDA.

2. U-Ellen G. White wenza kucace ukuba nguMoya oyiNgcwele onika itywina lokukhusela abo basiqondayo isono ukuba sinjalo kwaye bayancwina kwaye bakhale ngaso.

3. Uchaza umbhalo ongacacanga kuHezekile 9:2 ngokucacileyo yaye usixelela ukuba kumadoda amathandathu akhankanywe apho, kuphela. abahlanu baphethe isixhobo sokuxhela kwaye owokuqala nguMoya oyiNgcwele.

Kufuneka sijonge inqaku lokugqibela ngokusondeleyo kancinane. Okokuqala masifunde ivesi:

Wabiza ngelizwi elikhulu ezindlebeni zam, esithi, Sondelani, baveleli bomzi, elowo ephethe ngesandla izixhobo zakhe zokutshabalalisa. Kwaye, khangela, amadoda amathandathu avela endleleni lesango eliphezulu elijonge entla, nesango eliphezulu elibheke entla elowo unento yokuxhela esandleni sakhe; kukho indoda kubo eyambethe ilinen ecikizekileyo, inophondo lweinki yombhali ecaleni layo. zangena, zema ecaleni lesibingelelo sobhedu. ( Hezekile 9:1-2 )

“Amadoda amathandathu, elowo unesixhobo sokuxhela esandleni sakhe.” Yayiza kuba ngamajoni kaThixo amathandathu awayeza kubulala. Kodwa kwakukho “indoda enye phakathi kwabo” engqinelana nengcaciso yokutywinwa koMoya oyiNgcwele. Ngaba ungomnye wabathandathu, okanye ungowesixhenxe phakathi kwesithandathu? Inkcazo yethu yeBhayibhile eza kungabikho kungekudala ithi:

Indoda enye phakathi kwabo. Le ndoda yayingomnye wabathandathu ababephethe izixhobo zokuxhela, ingenguye owesixhenxe, njengoko abanye abatoliki besitsho (bona 3T 266, 267). ‘Wayambethe ilinen,’ isambatho esiqhelekileyo sababingeleli, yaye ingubo ekhethekileyo yombingeleli omkhulu kwimisitho yoMhla omkhulu woCamagushelo (Lev. 16). {SDA Bible Commentary, vol. 4; bona kuHezekile 9:2 .

Ngaba uyasiqonda isizathu sokuba iSihlomelo sethu seBhayibhile sinyamalale? Umhlalutyi ubhekisela kule mibhalo ingasentla kaEllen G. White, owabona embonweni ukuba ngamadoda amalunga namahlanu kuphela aphethe izixhobo zokuxhela. Imfundiso yengcwele iyacingelwa, kwaye imiboniso esibonisiweyo kufuneka yenzeke ngexesha lomgwebo wophando ngoMhla woCamagushelo ukususela ngo-1844. Ewe awunakukugcina oku kwinkonzo ye-ecumenical-friendly; yonke into kufuneka icinywe kwaye ihambe! Phantsi kokugxekwa okuphakamileyo kweBhayibhile, akukho mfundiso yangcwele, akukho kuphinda kusetyenziswe imibhalo yakudala yesiprofeto kwixesha lethu, yaye ngokuqinisekileyo akakho uEllen G. White!

Nangona kunjalo, le kuphela kwendlela yokusombulula imfihlakalo kaHezekile 9, esithe chu silandela umkhondo wayo. Esi siprofeto sisinika eyona ngenelo ibalaseleyo. Imfihlelo eneneni ilele kumzekeliso ongaqhelekanga wamadoda amathandathu, obonakala wahluke kakhulu kwimifanekiso yeapocalyptic yamatywina asixhenxe, amaxilongo asixhenxe nezibetho ezisixhenxe. Ndiyarhana ukuba abatoliki abaninzi baye bafikelela kwingcamango ethile xa bethelekisa uHezekile 9 namaxilongo asixhenxe, nawo aprofeta ngezigwebo zesohlwayo (ngobabalo).

Ngobabalo? Ewe, masifunde...

Kwathi, xa ababulalayo, ndisele mna, ndawa ngobuso, ndakhala, ndathi, Awu! Uya kuwatshabalalisa onke na amasalela akwaSirayeli ngokubuthulula ubushushu bakho phezu kweYerusalem? Wathi kum, Ubugwenxa bendlu kaSirayeli nobendlu kaYuda bukhulu kunene, nelizwe lizele ligazi, nomzi uzele bubugqwetha; Ke nam aliyi kuba nanceba iliso lam, ndibaconge; ndiya kubanika ngokwendlela yabo entlokweni yabo. Nantso indoda eyayambethe ilinen emhlophe, ebinophondo lweinki ethangeni layo, ibuya nelizwi, yathi, Ndenze njengoko ubundiwisele umthetho ngako. (UHezekile 9: 8-11)

Kufuneka uhlolisise isicatshulwa ngononophelo olukhulu ukuze ubone inyaniso. Nangona iNkosi ithi iliso laYo aliyi kuba nanceba kwaye akayi kuba nanceba, uMoya oyiNgcwele, kwiingubo zelinen zombingeleli omkhulu njengommeli kaYesu, ubonisa ngokucacileyo ukuba ixesha lobabalo alikapheli xa kufikwa ekuhlanjululweni kwebandla. Kunokuba kubhekiselwe kwizibetho, kusenokwenzeka ukuba kusondele ixesha elifutshane ngaphambi kokuvalwa kocango lwenceba. Siyazi ukuba lixesha lemvula yasekwindla, okanye ixesha lenkathazo. Kude kube yivesi yokugqibela yesahluko 9 apho uMoya oyiNgcwele anike ingxelo yokuba ukutywinwa kufeziwe. Okoko kusekho ukutywinwa, lusekho ubabalo. Ngexesha lezibetho, akuyi kuphinda kutywinwe mntu, kwaye noYesu akasayi kunxiba isambatho sobubingeleli obukhulu nangaphezulu, kodwa uya kunxiba ezobukhosi.

Ngoku ndifuna ukukucela ukuba ucinge ngokuzimeleyo malunga nendlela yokuvanisa amadoda amathandathu akuHezekile 9-uMoya oyiNgcwele namadoda amahlanu aphethe izixhobo zokuxhela - kunye namaxilongo asixhenxe eSityhilelo. Ngaba kunzima? Amalungu ethu eforum adinga ixesha elide ukuyibona...

Makhe siphinde sijonge isibhalo seBhayibhile, size sinikele ingqalelo kulandelelwano oluchanekileyo lwezenzo zala madoda mathandathu:

Wathi uYehova kuye, [uMoya oyiNgcwele] Canda esazulwini somzi, esazulwini seYerusalem, ubeke uphawu emabunzini amadoda ancwinayo, ancwinayo ngenxa yamasikizi onke awenzekayo esazulwini sayo. Kwaye nakwabanye [ezintlanu ngezixhobo zokuxhela] Wathi ezindlebeni zam, Hambani niye emva kwakhe phakathi komzi, nixabele; malingabi nanceba iliso lenu, ningacongi; (Hezekile 9:4-5)

Ukuba sabela la madoda mathandathu ukuba avuthe amaxilongo, kuya kubakho amaxilongo amathandathu kuphela. Yaye leyo yimfihlelo kaHezekile! Sinokuyicombulula njani le nto?

Ixilongo lokuqala kufuneka libe sisenzo sikaMoya oyiNgcwele, nto leyo emele umsebenzi wokutywina ohamba kude kube sekupheleni kweSahluko 9, uthatha iivesi ngokolandelelwano oluchaziweyo. Emva kwakhe, okanye ngoxa ehamba phambili, amadoda amahlanu amlandela enezixhobo zawo zokuxhela. Kufuneka babelwe ixilongo lesibini ukuya kwelesithandathu. Ngoko ngubani oza kubuya ngexilongo lesixhenxe? Kunjalo, isangqa sigqityiwe! UMoya oyiNgcwele uyeza kwakhona anike ingxelo yokuthobela...

Nantso indoda eyayambethe ilinen emhlophe, ebinophondo lweinki ethangeni layo, ibuya nendaba, isithi, Ndenze njengoko ubundiwisele umthetho ngako. (UHezekile 9: 11)

UHezekile 9 eneneni sisitshixo sokuqonda indlela asebenza ngayo amaxilongo, nokuba abekwe ngaphakathi kwelinye ukuya kumlinganiselo othile. Ixilongo lokuqala lihamba kuwo wonke umjikelo wexilongo (ubuncinane de imimoya emine ikhululwe), kwaye ekubeni abanye belandela, nabo badlula de ingxelo yempumelelo yoMoya oyiNgcwele igqibe umjikelo kwixilongo lesixhenxe. Umbhalo kaHezekile 9:11 ungqinelana ne-a carillon ezulwini:

kwaye esesixhenxe isithunywa savuthela ixilongo; kwabakho amazwi amakhulu ezulwini, esithi. Izikumkani zehlabathi zithe zaba zezeNkosi yethu nezikaKristu wayo; uya kulawula ngonaphakade kanaphakade. Aye amadoda amakhulu amashumi mabini anamane, ahleli phambi koThixo ezitroneni zawo, awa ngobuso, aqubuda kuThixo, esithi, Siyabulela kuwe, Nkosi, Thixo Somandla, lowo ukhoyo, wawukho, uzayo; ngokuba uwathabathile amandla akho amakhulu, waba ngukumkani. ( ISityhilelo 11:15-17 )

Xa i-144,000 yonke itywiniwe kwaye abafeli-nkolo baya kube bebufezile ubungqina babo, uya kuthi ke uBawo abe eliphumelele ityala. UKristu unokwambatha iingubo zobukumkani kwaye izibetho zinokuwa.

Zaqumba iintlanga, kwaye ingqumbo yakho ufikile... (ISityhilelo 11:18)

Jonga ngononophelo ngakumbi umjikelo wexilongo:

(Le tshathi ingaba ikhutshelwe kwindawo yokukhuphela kwisisombululo esiphezulu soncedo lokufundisa.)

Imfihlelo kaHezekile 9, indlela amadoda amathandathu anokudibana ngayo namaxilongo asixhenxe, inokuconjululwa kuphela ngomjikelo wewotshi—iwotshi yeOrion-kuba uMoya oyiNgcwele ubonakala kabini (ixilongo lokuqala nelesixhenxe) njengengelosi (yinkwenkwezi) njengomkhweli wehashe elimhlophe (ubunyulu beendaba ezilungileyo).

Ayikho enye intshukumo kulo mhlaba enokuchonga ngokufanelekileyo iindawo zengxaki kaHezekile 9 okanye iqalise ukuyicombulula ngokuchanekileyo. Kwangaxeshanye, siye sanikezela ngobungqina bokuqala bebhayibhile bethiyori ephakanyiswa rhoqo kodwa engazange ingqinwe ukuba izithunywa zezulu ezinamaxilongo ngasinye ziyakhala ngexesha elithile, kodwa ke ziqhubeke ukuya ekupheleni komjikelo wexilongo ngokwalo. Abo bawabonayo amaxilongo efakwe phakathi kwelinye babenyanisile. Babeswele nje amaxesha (imihla yeentsuku). Ngoku unokuzifunda ngokulula!

Ukukhululwa Kwemimoya Emine

Ngaba uyasiqonda ngoku ukuba kutheni kungekho nto “ichulumancisayo” eyenzeka kwixilongo lokuqala? Yayilixesha loMoya oyiNgcwele, owahamba yedwa ngaphambili kwixesha eliphambili lexilongo lokuqala, elaqala ngokuhla kwakhe njengengelosi yesine ngoJanuwari 31 ukuya ku-1 kaFebruwari walo nyaka. Wahamba phambi kwamadoda anezixhobo zokuxhela njengomkhweli wehashe elimhlophe waza wavuthela ixilongo lokuqala lobabalo. Nguye owathintela intaba-mlilo enkulu yeYellowstone National Park ukuba itshabalalise isinye kwisithathu soMntla Merika, ibe nguye owathintela intlekele yaseCrimea ekubeni ibangele ukufa kwamawakawaka.

Kodwa kuthekani ngamanye amaxilongo? Uya kuqalisa nini umgwebo webandla eliwexukileyo? Indoda yesibini sele inesixhobo sokuxhela esandleni sayo. Ngenxa yokuba umgwebo uqala endlwini kaThixo nakumadoda amakhulu asetempileni, kumele kwenzeke okuthile ebudeni bexesha elingundoqo lexilongo lesibini ukuze kuzaliseke esi siprofeto. Sikholelwa ukuba amaziko amaninzi e-Adventist kungekudala aya kugwetywa ngomlilo ongacimiyo ovela kuThixo njenge-sanitarium e-Battle Creek kunye ne-Review and Herald kwi-1902. UThixo wayishiya iCawa ye-Adventist ehleliweyo waza wanika uSathana isandla esikhululekile ukuba atshabalalise. Sikwakholelwa ukuba kufuneka kuqalwe ngesakhiwo sekomkhulu leNkomfa Jikelele eSilver Spring, MD, ekubeni isibhalo seBhayibhile sithetha ngamadoda amakhulu endlu kaThixo, athetha ngawo kuqala.

Nangona kunjalo, siyazi ukuba kusekho ubabalo kuba ixesha lokutywinwa lisaza kuqhubeka. Kukho umbono ka-Ellen G. White ongekacaciswa ngokupheleleyo, kwaye uya kusinceda ekuqondeni kwethu umjikelo wexilongo. Sele ilinde iminyaka eyi-165 ukuze lo mzuzu uqondwe.

Lo mbono unesihloko esifanelekileyo Ukutywinwa encwadini Imibhalo yokuqala, kwaye kufuneka ifundwe ngokupheleleyo kube kanye nguye wonke umntu phambi kokuba kufundwe kwakhona apha. Ndiza kukhupha kuphela ezona ngcaphuno zibalulekileyo.

Enyanisweni, kukho imibono emibini echazwe kwesi sahluko 4. Imeko yemicimbi engazange ibekwe ngokupheleleyo ku-Ellen G. White kumbono okhankanywe kuqala iphindwa kabini kumbono wesibini kunye neenkcukacha ezingakumbi. Ukuba singamaYuda, ngoko besiya kuqonda oko njengokugxininisa okukhethekileyo kokubaluleka kwaloo nxalenye yombono.

Okokuqala, umbono wethu uqinisekisiwe ukuba umjikelo wesibetho unokuqalisa kuphela emva kokuba umjikelo wexilongo ugqityiwe:

Ndabona ukuba izithunywa zozine zaziya kubamba imimoya yomine, de umsebenzi kaYesu wenziwe engcweleni, kwandule ke kufike izibetho ezisixhenxe zokugqibela. {EW 36.2}

Ukukhululwa kwemimoya emine kwenzeka kwixilongo lesithandathu, ngokutsho kwesibhalo seBhayibhile:

Kwaye i ingelosi yesithandathu yavuthela ixilongo. ndeva izwi liphuma ezimpondweni zone zesibingelelo segolide esiphambi koThixo, lisithi kwisithunywa sesithandathu, esinexilongo. Zikhululeni izithunywa zezulu ezine, ezibotshwe emlanjeni omkhulu ongumEfrati. Zaza zakhululwa izithunywa zozine, ezazilungiselwe ilixa, nemini, nenyanga, nomnyaka, ukuba zibulale isahlulo sesithathu sabantu. ( ISityhilelo 9:13-15 )

Emva koko, uEllen G. White uboniswa ukuba ummiselo wokufa uya kuphuma ekuqaleni kwexesha lezibetho, nokuba ixesha lenkathazo kaYakobi liya kuqala kwaye liliphi ikamva labo baya kubandezeleka abakhe bayiqonda iSabatha kodwa abazange bayigcine xa babevavanywa. Emva koko ubona umbono ongaqhelekanga ekupheleni kombono wokuqala weSabatha kusasa kaJanuwari 5, 1849 okhankanywe kwesi sahluko:

Ingelosi ekhonzayo yandikhokelela kwakhona esixekweni, apho ndabona khona iingelosi ezine begxalathelana ukuya kwisango lomzi. Babesandula ukuzisa ikhadi legolide kwingelosi eyayisesangweni xa ndabona enye ingelosi ibhabha ngokukhawuleza isuka kwicala lendlela olona zuko lubalaseleyo, kunye nokulila kunye ilizwi elikhulu kwezinye iingelosi, kwaye ewangawangisa into phezulu naphantsi esandleni sakhe. Ndacela ingelosi yam ukuba indixelele ngento endiyibonileyo. Wandixelela ukuba andisayi kubona ngoko, kodwa kungekudala wayeza kundibonisa ukuba zithetha ukuthini ezo zinto ndazibonayo. {EW 37.1}

Kubonakala ngathi ngumboniso wokuqala kaDaniyeli 8, xa umprofeti olungileyo wagulayo ngenxa yokuba wayengawuqondi umbono. Kodwa u-Ellen G. White akazange alinde ixesha elide njengoko uDaniel ohluphekileyo ukuba iinkcukacha zichazwe. Kwangaloo mvakwemini yeSabatha, waba nombono wesibini:

ndabona iingelosi ezine ababenomsebenzi ehlabathini, besaya kuwufeza. UYesu wayembethe iingubo zobubingeleli. [Ngoko ke sikwixesha elincinane lenkathazo.] Wajonga ngosizi kwintsalela, wandula ke waphakama Izandla zakhe, wadanduluka ngelizwi elinosizi olukhulu. “Igazi lam, Bawo, igazi laM, igazi laM, igazi laM!” Ndabona ukukhanya okuqaqambileyo okuphuma kuThixo, ohleli phezu kwetrone enkulu emhlophe, kuphalazwa lonke kuYesu. Ndabona isithunywa sezulu, sinothumo oluvela kuYesu, sibhabha ngamendu, sisiya kwizithunywa zozine, ezazinomsebenzi wokwenza emhlabeni; ewangawangisa into phezulu naphantsi esandleni sakhe, ekhala ngelizwi elikhulu. “Bamba! Bamba! Bamba! Bamba! de abakhonzi bakaThixo batywinwe emabunzini abo. {EW 38.1}

Kumbono wokuqala wale Sabatha ikhethekileyo, uEllen G. White wabona ikroba lesiganeko sasezulwini esijikeleze ingelosi yesine (esinye). Kumbono wesibini waboniswa imiphumo eyayiya kuba nayo ekuhambeni kwengelosi yesine emhlabeni, ubulungiseleli bethu. Kangangexesha elide sasizibuza ukuba yintoni le “ngelosi” iwangawangisa ihla inyuka isesandleni sayo. Mhlawumbi kwakunjalo ku-Ellen G. White, kuba kumbono wesibini ubuza kwakhona kwaye ufumana impendulo:

Ndayibuza ingelosi endandihamba nayo intsingiselo yoko ndakuvayo, noko kwakusele kuza kukwenza iingelosi ezine. Wathi kum ukuba nguThixo owathinteleyo amandla, nokuba wazinika izithunywa zakhe umyalelo phezu kwezinto ezisemhlabeni; ukuba izithunywa zezulu zone zazinamandla avela kuThixo okubamba imimoya yomine, nokuba sele ziza kuyindulula; Kuthe ke, zakubon' ukuba ziyemka izandla zabo, kwakuvuthuza imimoya yomine, iliso lenceba likaYesu labandela kwababengatywinwanga; Waphakama Izandla zakhe kuBawo bambongoza ukuba aliphalaze igazi lakhe ngenxa yabo. Kwaza kwamiselwa esinye isithunywa sezulu ukuba siphaphazele ngokukhawuleza siye kuzo iingelosi ezine, size sithi zibambe, de abakhonzi bakaThixo batywinwe ngetywina loThixo ophilayo emabunzini abo. {EW 38.2}

De kube nguJanuwari 31, 2014, bekungenakwenzeka ukuba siyitolike le mibono ngokuchanekileyo. Kodwa ingelosi yesine yehla inento eyayiwangawangisa ihla inyuka phambi kwamehlo ethu. Yayiyitshathi yomjikelo wexilongo endandiyifumene ngobusuku obungaphambi kwam intshumayelo kaJanuwari 31 ngokuhlwa. Kwaye kulo mjikelo, okukuphindwa kokugqibela kwemijikelo emininzi yamaxilongo, kukho imiyalelo ekhethekileyo engazange inikwe ngaphambili. Imimoya (iimfazwe neentlekele) yayiza kubanjwa de ukutywinwa kugqitywe.

Ngoku kufuneka ucingisise nzulu: Ngawaphi amaxilongo asebenza kuwo ‘izibambiso’ ezine zikaYesu? Sinamaxilongo asixhenxe, kodwa amane kuphela “abamba”. Ixilongo lesithandathu alinakuba “libamba” kuba lifanekisela ukukhululwa kwemimoya emine, yaye ngaloo ndlela, ngokusengqiqweni, ukutywinwa kufanele kugqitywe. Akukho “kubamba” okufunekayo kwixilongo lokuqala kuba akaphathanga sixhobo sokuxhela. Ngoko umyalelo wokuba sibambe imimoya emine isebenza kwixilongo lesibini, lesithathu, lesine nelesihlanu.

Ukuba negunya phezu kwemimoya emine ngumfuziselo nje. Asinako ukuwisa imigwebo kwaye singafuni, nangona umonde wethu ulingwa. Ngokwendalo singathanda ukuvela ekufundeni siye ekuboneni (singathanda ukukhulula imimoya emine), kodwa uYesu ufuna umonde ongakumbi kuthi. Igunya lethu lelobugcisa besiprofeto. Igunya lethu lilinganiselwe ekuqondeni iindinyana zesiprofeto namandla okutolika imibono, njengale ingasentla, namhlanje nangendlela efanelekileyo.

Kodwa kubhalwe phi kwisicatshulwa ukuba le miyalelo ibhalwe ngokwenene kwixilongo lesibini ukuya kwelesihlanu? Ngaba asiyontelekelelo yethu nje leyo ngaphandle kokuxhaswa ngakumbi kunombono ngokwawo?

Masiphinde sijonge itshathi yexilongo engasentla size sicinge ngoYesu enamanxeba akhe eOrion, njengoko bendimbonise kwiminyaka eyadlulayo kwisilayidi 173 se Intetho yeOrion. Ngawaphi amanxeba ahambelana nexilongo lesibini ukuya kwelesihlanu? Asinangxaki yokudibanisa ixilongo lesithathu nelesine kunye izandla zika Yesu.

Kumjikelo womgwebo, ndatolika imigca yetrone (ixilongo lesibini nelesihlanu) njengomnqamlezo kaYesu, kodwa Yena waphakamisa izandla Zakhe ngesitshizi sokutshisa ukulungelelanisa neenkwenkwezi iBetelgeuse kunye neBellatrix. Nokuba sihlala kunye nokutolikwa kwemigca yetrone njengomnqamlezo womjikelo wexilongo, nangona kunjalo, Izandla zikaYesu yayiza kubethelelwa ngokomfuziselo kwimiqadi ethe tye (umqadi onqamlezileyo okanye imigca yetrone).

Ngaloo ndlela, ixilongo lesibini laliza kuhambelana nesandla sasekunene sikaYesu emnqamlezweni, ngoxa ixilongo lesithathu liya kuba sisandla esinye, siphakanyiselwe phezulu nje. Ngokunjalo, kwelinye icala lomjikelo wexilongo: elesine ixilongo liya kuba sisandla sikaYesu esiphakanyisiweyo sasekhohlo lize elesihlanu libe lelo libekwe emnqamlezweni.

Kwakhona kubonakala kusengqiqweni ukuba xa wayecela uYise ukuba abambe imimoya, uYesu wayeya kubuza ngezandla Zakhe kungekhona ngeenyawo Zakhe okanye ngecala Lakhe. Ukuba ufunda isicatshulwa salo mbono ngenyameko (kunye nogxininiso lwam), ngoko sitsho kanye ngolo hlobo. Kuphindo lwesithathu lomboniso osembonweni, sinawo izandla zika Yesu kwisininzi kunye nentshukumo ukusuka "kwindawo yokuphumla emnqamlezweni" ngokuphakanyiswa kwezandla zasekunene nezasekhohlo ukusuka kwimigca yetrone ukuya eBetelgeuse naseBellatrix, ngokulandelanayo:

... kwaye Yena khuliswe Izandla zakhe kuBawo bambongoza ukuba aliphalaze igazi lakhe ngenxa yabo. Kwaza kwamiselwa esinye isithunywa sezulu ukuba siphaphazele ngokukhawuleza siye kuzo iingelosi ezine, size sithi zibambe, de abakhonzi bakaThixo batywinwe ngetywina loThixo ophilayo emabunzini abo. {EW 38.2}

(Ngokomzekelo, oopopayi babonisa ukuphakanyiswa kwesandla sikaYesu sasekunene kwixilongo lesibini nelesithathu.)

Ngenxa yoko, amadoda amane anezixhobo zokuxhela athintelwa sisithintelo esiyalelwe nguYesu ngokwaKhe. Oko kwenza igazi Lakhe lisebenze ukuze intshabalalo ebangelwa zizithunywa zexilongo ingabi yoyikekayo kangangokuba akukho nyama inokusindiswa, nangona uSathana ebengathanda ukuba kube njalo.

Xa ucinga ngento eyayinokwenzeka kumaxilongo amabini okuqala (funda Amaxilongo anesandi esithile kwakhona), ngoko ke sinokuba nombulelo kuphela kuYesu ngonaphakade ngenkonzo yakhe yokuthethelela. Izindlu ezinkulu zokupapasha zama-Adventist zeReview and Herald and the Pacific Press eneneni zazenzelwe ukwenza lo msebenzi, kodwa ekubeni siwenza ngomsebenzi wethu omncinane “wokupapasha nokushicilela” endaweni yoko, sinokuba nombulelo kuba akuyomfuneko ukuba siqhubeke siwenza phantsi kweemeko ezinzima ngendlela engathethekiyo. Sisenofikelelo lwe-Intanethi kunye noqhagamshelwano nani bantu behlabathi jikelele, kwaye sisenako ukunika lo myalezo wokugqibela ngamandla ethu okugqibela.

Imilambo yase-Eden

Siye sajongana nokukhululwa kwemimoya emine kweli nqaku, kodwa ngokutsho kweBhayibhile le yabotshwa kumlambo omkhulu umEfrate.

Sathi esesithandathu isithunywa savuthela ixilongo, ndeva izwi liphuma ezimpondweni zone zesibingelelo segolide esiphambi koThixo, lisithi kwisithunywa sesithandathu, esinexilongo, Zithukulule izithunywa zozine. ababotshwe kumlambo omkhulu UmEfrate. Zaza zakhululwa izithunywa zozine, ebezilungisiwe iyure, nomhla, nenyanga, nonyaka, ukuze asibulale isahlulo sesithathu sabantu. ( ISityhilelo 9:13-15 )

Njengoko uYosiya uLitch waxela kwangaphambili umhla ochanekileyo wokuzaliseka kwexilongo lesithandathu le-classical kunye nokuwa koBukhosi base-Ottoman ngo-Agasti 11, 1840. Maranatha 152}, ngoko isandi sexilongo lesithandathu ngoJulayi 8, 2015 siya kucaca ukuba akukho mntu uya kuzithandabuza izifundo zethu. Ngelo xesha, ixesha lokutywinwa liya kube ligqityiwe i-144,000, kuba iingelosi ezine ziya kubamba imimoya de zitywinwe zonke... ngoko nabani na othandabuzayo ixesha elide ngokuqinisekileyo akanakuba ngowe-144,000!

Ndaza emva kwezi zinto ndabona iingelosi ezine emi kwiimbombo zone zomhlaba. ibambe imimoya yomine yomhlaba; ukuze kungavuthuzi moya phezu komhlaba, naphezu kolwandle, naphezu kwemithi yonke; Ndaye ndabona enye ingelosi enyuka evela empumalanga [empuma = iOrion], ukuba itywina likaThixo ophilileyo: Wadanduluka ngelizwi elikhulu kuye izithunywa zezulu zone, ezanikwa ukuba ziwonakalisa umhlaba nolwandle; esithi, Musa ukuwonakalisa umhlaba, nolwandle, nemithi; side sibatywine abakhonzi boThixo wethu emabunzini abo. (Isityhilelo 7: 1-3)

Apha sifumana umlingani webhayibhile kumbono kaEllen G. White ontlumbini phantsi kwesihloko esingaphambili. Kodwa unantoni yakwenza nomlambo umEfrate, okhankanywa ngokukhethekileyo kumjikelo wesibetho?

kwaye esesithandathu isithunywa sayiphalaza ingqayi yaso phezu kwewayini umlambo omkhulu umEfrate; atsha amanzi awo, yaba yindlela ookumkani basempumalanga [empuma = iOrion] inokulungiswa. ( ISityhilelo 16:12 )

Abahlalutyi abambalwa sele bebonile ukuba ookumkani basempuma yiDivine Trio—uBawo, uKristu noMoya Oyingcwele. Singafunda loo nto-okanye into efana kakhulu-kwiNgxelo yethu yeBhayibhile (esekhoyo):

Ngokwembono yesibini, “ookumkani basempuma” bamela uKristu nabo bahamba naye. Le mbono isekela ibinzana elithi “ookumkani basempuma,” njengamanye amazwi okomfuziselo akwiSityhi. 16:12 , kwisiganeko esingokwembali sikaKoreshi esoyisa iBhabhiloni waza kamva wakhulula abantu bakaThixo, amaYuda, ukuba abuyele kwilizwe lawo lokuzalwa. {SDA Bible Commentary, vol. 7; bona kwiSityhilelo 16:12 .

KuMhlomlo weBhayibhile, sikwafunda ukuba umEfrate ngokwenene yayingumlambo owawuqukuqela phakathi kwesixeko saseBhabhiloni. Kwenzeka ntoni emva phaya, xa amaPersi angena eBhabhiloni nakwiMene Tekele kukumkani waseBhabheli uBheleshatsare wazalisekisa kwangobo busuku (bona uDaniyeli 5)?

YayinguKoreshi owoyisa isixeko saseBhabhiloni emva kokuba ephambukise umEfrate waza wasihlasela eso sixeko. umlambo owomileyo. Oko kwenzeka ngo-Oktobha 13, 539 BC. UKoreshi waprofetwa ngegama kuIsaya 44 no-45 ‘njengomthanjiswa weNkosi,’ yaye ngaloo ndlela umi njengomfuziselo kaKristu ngokwaKhe. Oko kuyingqinela ngamandla le mbono ingasentla yokuba umlambo umEfrati uya koma ekubuyeni kwesibini kukaYesu, kwaye leyo yintsingiselo yokwenene yookumkani basempuma.

Kodwa siziqonda njani ezi ndinyana kwixesha lethu? Kuthetha ukuthini ukuba umlambo umEfrate uya koma ngokoqobo ukulungiselela ukuza kwesibini kukaYesu?

Ukuze sikuqonde oku, kufuneka sitshintshe ukusuka kwincwadi yokugqibela yeBhayibhile siye kweyokuqala, apho umEfrate uqanjwa ngegama lokuqala:

UYehova uThixo watyala umyezo e-Eden ngasempumalanga; wambeka khona umntu abembumbile. UYehova uThixo wantshulisa emhlabeni yonke imithi enqwenelekayo ngokukhangeleka, nelungele ukudliwa; nomthi wobomi esazulwini somyezo, nomthi wokwazi okulungileyo nokubi. Kwaphuma umlambo e-Eden wokuwunyakamisa umyezo; wahlukana apho, waba ngomnye iintloko ezine. Igama le Okokuqala yiPison: nguwo lowo ujikeleze lonke ilizwe laseHavila, apho kukho igolide; Igolide yelo lizwe intle, ikhona ibhedolaki nelitye lebherilo. Kwaye igama le umlambo wesibini yiGihon. nguwo lowo ujikeleze lonke ilizwe lakwaKushi. Kwaye igama le umlambo wesithathu yiHidekele; nguwo lowo ubheka ngasempumalanga kwaseAsiriya. Kwaye i umlambo wesine ngu UmEfrate. (Genesis 2: 8-14)

Ababhali-mbali nabembi bezinto zakudala babefuna ukusebenzisa inkcazelo yemilambo emine yomlambo eyayiphuma kuMyezo wase-Eden ukuze bawufumane. Kodwa ngelishwa:

10. Umlambo. Mninzi umzamo wezifundiswa owenziwe kumzamo wokucacisa ivesi 10–14, kodwa ingcaciso eyanelisayo mhlawumbi ayinakuze ifumaneke, kuba umphezulu womhlaba emva koNogumbe wawufana kancinane noko wawukho ngaphambili. Intlekele enjengokunyuswa kweentaba eziphakamileyo nokwenza imimandla emikhulu yolwandle yayingenakukwazi ukushiya izinto ezingaphantsi komhlaba njengemilambo ingachatshazelwanga. Ke ngoko asinathemba lokuchonga amagama ejografi angaphambi konogumbe kunye neempawu zomhlaba zanamhlanje, ngaphandle kokuba iMphefumlo inokusenzela oko (bona iPP 105-108). {SDA Bible Commentary, vol. 1; jonga kwiGenesis 2:10}

Ngaphaya koko, siya kukhangela ilize kulo mhlaba uMyezo wase-Edeni:

Umyezo wase-Eden wahlala emhlabeni ixesha elide emva kokuba umntu ekhutshiwe kwiindlela zawo ezimnandi. Uhlanga oluwileyo lwaluvunyelwe ixesha elide ukuba lukhangele kwikhaya labamsulwa, ukungena kwalo kuvaliwe kuphela ziingelosi ezibukeleyo. Esangweni laseParadesi elilindwa ziikerubhi ubuqaqauli bobuThixo batyhilwa. Kweza uAdam noonyana bakhe ukuza kunqula uThixo. Apha bahlaziya izibhambathiso zabo zokuthobela loo mthetho ngenxa yokunxaxha kwawo okwakubagxothile e-Eden. Ekufikeni kobubi elimiweyo, ukuba ububi babantu bugqibe ukutshatyalaliswa kwabo ngonogumbe wamanzi; isandla esatyala i-Eden sawurhola emhlabeni. Kodwa ekubuyiselweni kokugqibela, xa kuya kubakho “izulu elitsha nomhlaba omtsha” ( ISityhilelo 21:1 ), liya kubuyiselwa lihonjiswe ngokuzukileyo ngakumbi kunasekuqaleni. {PP 62.2}

Kodwa uThixo akabhali nto ingenamsebenzi eLizwini laKhe; sikubonile oko kuqinisekiswa amaxesha amaninzi. Kwaye ukuba uthe wanweba unxibelelwano ukusuka kumEfrati wase-Eden ukuya ekubuyeni kwesibini kukaKristu apho aphinda ayikhankanye, ngoko ngumsebenzi wethu ongcwele ukuyiphanda.

Umlambo owawuphuma kuMyezo wase-Eden uchazwa ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo njengowahlulahlula ube yimisinga emine. Le milambo mine ide ibalwe yaye ichazwe ngokulandelelana kwayo eBhayibhileni. Amanzi aqukuqelayo adla ngokumela ukuhamba kwexesha okanye ukulandelelana kweziganeko kwimbali yoluntu nakwindalo iphela. Kukwasebenza okufanayo nalapha xa sithetha ngomfuziselo wasemhlabeni, umlambo wamanzi obomi oqukuqela uphuma e-Eden, njengomfuziselo womlambo wasezulwini ophuma kwitrone kaThixo.

Uye wandibonisa emsulwa umlambo wamanzi obomi, uqaqambile, ngathi ngumkhenkce, uphuma etroneni kaThixo neyeMvana. Phakathi kwesitrato sawo namacala omabini omlambo, kukho umthi wobomi, ovelisa iintlobo zeziqhamo ezilishumi elinambini, unika iinyanga ngeenyanga zonke isiqhamo sawo; abe amagqabi omthi lowo engawokuphilisa iintlanga. ( ISityhilelo 22:1-2 )

UYesu ngokwakhe wabhekisela kwimfundiso yakhe njengamanzi obomi:

UMoya nomtshakazi bathi, Yiza. Lowo uvayo makathi, Yiza. Lowo unxaniweyo makeze. nosukuba ethanda, makawathabathe amanzi obomi ngesisa. (ISityhilelo 22: 17)

Waphendula uYesu wathi kuye, Ukuba ubusazi isipho sikaThixo, ngubani na lo uthi kuwe, Ndiphe ndisele; Unge ucele kuye, yena wakunika amanzi aphilayo. (UJohn 4: 10)

Ngoko ke, imilambo emine yase-Eden imela amanzi obomi kumaxesha amane awahlukahlukeneyo embali yoluntu. Vumela uMoya oyiNgcwele usikhokele njengoko sifunda amagama emilambo ukuze sibone enoba sinokufumanisa ukuba ngawaphi amaxesha embali yoluntu agxininiswa ngokukodwa ngesipho samanzi obomi obungunaphakade esivela kuThixo.

Igama lokuqala ngu I-Pison: nguwo lowo ujikeleze ilizwe lonke Havila, apho kukho igolide; Igolide yelo lizwe intle, ikhona ibhedolaki nelitye lebherilo. ( Genesis 2:11-12 )

I-Strong's isinika ulwazi malunga nentsingiselo yamagama esiHebhere:

H6376
פּישׁון
pı̂yshôn
Ukusuka H6335; i-dispersive; iPishon, umlambo wase-Eden: - iPison.

Ibhekisa kwi-H6335 njengengcambu. Ukujonga igama ngokweenkcukacha ngakumbi:

פּוּשׁ
Dudula
Ingcambu yamandulo; ukusasaza; ngokomfuziselo yenza ngokuzingca: khulani, tyebeni, dlani, yibani ziintanda;

Ngaba uyalwazi uhlanga okanye abantu abakhukhumeleyo baza bachithachitheka kwimimoya yomine kaThixo?

Isiprofeto esinxamnye noSirayeli kwiDuteronomi sisixelela ukuba simalunga nabantu bakwaSirayeli ababandezeleka ngokuphandle:

Kwaye uYehova uya kwenza ndiniphangalalise phakathi kweentlanga; nisale nibantu bambalwa ezintlangeni, apho uYehova aya kuniqhubela khona. ( Duteronomi 4:27 )

Aba bantu babenomsebenzi wokunika amanzi obomi kwindawo yabo, kodwa abazange bawenze umsebenzi wabo:

UIsaya umchaza ‘njengengxondorha yasephakadeni,’ ‘nomthunzi weliwa elikhulu ezweni elibharhileyo. Isaya 26:4 (udini); 32:2. Kwaye ubhala isithembiso esixabisekileyo, ndawakhumbuza kakuhle umsinga ophilileyo, owawuqukuqela kwaSirayeli; “Xa abasweleyo nabangamahlwempu befuna amanzi; kungabikho, ulwimi lwabo lome linxano; Mna Yehova ndiya kubaphendula, mna, Thixo kaSirayeli, andiyi kubashiya. Ndiya kugalela amanzi phezu kwabanxaniweyo, nemiqukuqela yamanzi phezu komhlaba owomileyo; “Kuya kugqobhoka amanzi entlango, nemilambo enkqantosini. Kunikelwa isimemo esithi, “Hayini, nonke nina ninxaniweyo, yizani emanzini.” Isaya 41:17; 44:3; Isaya 35:6; 55:1. Kwaye kumaphepha okugqibela eLizwi eliNgcwele esi simemo siyavakala. Umlambo wamanzi obomi, “uqaqambile njengekristale,” uphuma kwitrone kaThixo neyeMvana; kwaye ubizo lobabalo lunkenteza kuzo zonke izizukulwana, "Osukuba ethanda, makawathabathe amanzi obomi ngesisa." ISityhilelo 22:17 . {PP 413.2}

Umlambo iPison ujikeleze ilizwe laseHavila. Eli gama lithetha "isetyhula" kwaye livela kwingcambu elula ye-H2342, ebonisa iintlungu zokuzala phakathi kwezinye izinto. Enyanisweni, ihlumelo, uYesu Kristu, wazalwa luhlanga lwamaYuda. Eso sesinye isiprofeto samandulo sokuba ngenye imini uKristu wayeza kuzalwa ngamaYuda. Kanye njengokuba igolide ekumfanekiso oqingqiweyo kaDaniyeli yayimela iBhabhiloni—uhlanga olumthiyileyo uThixo—nantsi igolide yelizwe laseHavila. Imela abantu bakaThixo bokuqala ababeseyigolide xa ithelekiswa nezinto ezaziza kulandela. Yiyo loo nto uThixo ephinda athi igolide yelo lizwe “ilungile.”

Malunga neempawu zebhedolaki kunye nelitye lebherilo, abaphengululi bethu bamagqabaza eBhayibhile abanalwazi. Ndiyavuma.

Igama elithi bhdellium lithetha iperile yaye lisikhumbuza ngamasango eeperile ali-12 eSixeko esiNgcwele, wona amele izizwe ezili-12 zoSirayeli “omtsha”.

Aye ngamasango alishumi elinamabini iiperile ezilishumi elinambini; isango ngalinye lenziwe ngaperile-nye; nesitrato somzi yigolide engcwengekileyo, njengegilasi ebonakalelayo. ( ISityhilelo 21:21 )

Amatye ebherilo amela amatye esikhumbuzo namagama ezizwe ezili-12 zamandulo zakwaSirayeli, awayethwalwa ngumbingeleli omkhulu emagxeni akhe.

Uze uthabathe amatye amabini ebherilo; kwaye ukrole kuzo amagama oonyana bakaSirayeli; amagama amathandathu abo oba kwelinye ilitye, namagama amathandathu amanye abe kwelesibini ilitye, ngokweenzala zabo. Wowakrola amatye omabini, ngokomsebenzi womkroli wamatye, ngokrolo lomsesane wokutywina, ngokwamagama oonyana bakaSirayeli, uwafake imiluko yegolide. Uze uwabeke amatye omabini ezizibeni zamagxa ze-efodi, abe ngamatye esikhumbuzo koonyana bakaSirayeli, awathwale uAron amagama abo phambi koYehova ezizibeni zamagxa akhe omabini, abe sisikhumbuzo. ( Eksodus 28:9-12 )

Ekubeni ngoku kucacile ukuba umlambo wokuqala wawumela uhlanga lwamaYuda, olwalungabantu bokuqala bakaThixo apha emhlabeni, sifanele sibe nexesha elilula lokufumana uhlanga Lwakhe lwesibini kumlambo wesibini. Ngoko ke, akuyomfuneko ukuba umbhalo weBhayibhile unikele imikhondo emininzi:

Kwaye igama le umlambo wesibini yiGihon. nguwo lowo ujikeleze lonke ilizwe lakwaKushi. ( Genesis 2:13 )

IGihon ithetha nje umlambo kwaye isuka...

H1518
גּח גּיח
gîyach gôach
ghee'-akh, hamba'-akh
Ingcambu yamandulo; ukumpompoza (njengamanzi), ngokubanzi ukukhupha: - gqabhuka, bulalekelani ukuzala; khupha.

Kwimvula yokuqala, eyanikelwa ngePentekoste yowama-31 AD, amanzi oMoya oyiNgcwele aqalisa ukuqukuqela aze athululelwe kumaKristu okuqala. Iindaba ezilungileyo ezingoYesu Kristu zasasazwa zaza zampompoza njengomlambo omkhulu wegazi likaYesu nothando lukaThixo. Abapostile basebenza ngenkuthalo ukuzisa intlahlela, kwaye kwavela ubuKristu. Kwakhona babebhala iincwadi zeVangeli.

Kodwa akuzange kwenzeke yonke into ngendlela ababenqwenela ngayo. UKushi unyana kaHam, unyana kaNowa—okanye ilizwe lakwaKushi (iTiyopiya) umele ukwenziwa kukaNimrodi, owokuqala ukwakha izixeko kunye nesixeko esikhulu phakathi kwabakhi abakhulu okanye abakhi bezakhiwo. Inqaba yeBhabheli. Namhlanje, amalandela akhe “okomoya” ngoopopu, kwaye ke ilizwe lakwaKushi limela ubupopu, obathi ngelishwa bavela kwixesha lobuKristu elaqala ngo-AD 31 ukuya ku-1798.

UKushi wazala uNimrodi, yena waqala waba ligorha emhlabeni. Ukuqala kobukumkani bakhe yiBhabheli, ne-Ereki, neAkadi, neKalene, ezweni laseShinare. Kwesuka elo lizwe, waphuma eAsiriya, wakha iNineve, nesixeko iRehobhoti, neKala, neResen, phakathi kweNineve neKala: ngumzi ke lowo. ( Genesis 10:8-12 )

Masifumane ixesha lesithathu uThixo alichaza ngegama lomlambo:

Igama lowesithathu ngumlambo I-Hiddekel: yiloo nto eya ngasentshonalanga kwimpuma yeAsiriya... (IGenesis 2: 14)

Ayinayo iBible Commentary okanye iStrong's zinezimvo ezininzi ngalo mlambo. Kodwa sinaso iSibhalo esiNgcwele, esizitolika ngokwaso. Iphi enye iHidekeli ekhankanywe?

Inye kuphela indawo apho iHidekeli ibonakala khona eSibhalweni, eyile, kwisahluko 10 sencwadi kaDaniyeli xa UYesu buqu ibonakala kumprofeti kumbono omangalisayo ofikelela ekupheleni kweSahluko 12, uze uqhubele phambili ukuya kutsho ekupheleni kwale ncwadi.

Ngomhla wamashumi amabini anesine wenyanga yokuqala, njengoko ndandinjalo ngasemlanjeni omkhulu oyiHidekeli; Ndawaphakamisa amehlo am, ndabona, nantso indoda yambethe ilinen emhlophe, ebhinqe esinqeni sayo igolide ecikizekileyo yaseUfazi, umzimba wayo ubunjengekrizolite, ubuso bayo bunjengembonakalo yombane, amehlo ayo enjengezikhuni zomlilo, iingalo zayo neenyawo zayo zibonakala ngathi lubhedu olubengezelisiweyo, nesandi samazwi ayo ngathi sisandi sengxokolo. ( Daniyeli 10:4-6 )

Kuphezu kwalo mlambo iHidekeli apho uYesu umi ngoxa efunga isifungo esaziwayo kubo bonke abafundi beOrion. Ufungela amadoda amabini aselunxwemeni lomlambo, amela iminqophiso emidala nemitsha, nemigwebo yabafileyo nabaphilayo.

Mna Daniyeli ndakhangela, ndabona kumi abanye ababini, omnye ekweli cala lonxweme yomlambo, elinye ngaphaya konxweme lomlambo. Wathi omnye kwindoda bambethe ilinen, leyo yayiphezu kwamanzi omlambo; Koda kube nini na ukuphela kwezi zinto zimangalisayo? ( Daniyeli 12:5-6 )

UYesu uchazwa njengendoda eyambethe ilinen, nto leyo—njengoko sele sisazi—ebonisa inkonzo Yakhe yokuthethelela njengoMbingeleli Omkhulu ngoMhla Omkhulu Wocamagushelo okwaziwa ngokuba ngumgwebo ophandayo ezulwini. Ngoko sithetha ngexesha elisusela ngowe-1844, nangoDaniyeli, incwadi yomgwebo. Igama elithi Daniyeli ngokwalo lithetha ukuthi “uThixo ngumgwebi wam.” Le cawa imele yeyiphi? Imele ibandla lama-Adventist, kunjalo.

Ngo-2008, uThixo wandinika ukuqonda isifungo sikaYesu emi phezu kweHidekeli. Ndagqiba kwelokuba ixesha lokugwetywa kwabafileyo libe yiminyaka eyi-168 ngokufuzisela esi sifungo. Ngovuyo olukhulu, ndaya kuxelela abazalwana bam malunga noku kufunyanwa kuphela ndazifumana ndimi phambi kweendlebe ezingevayo kwiCawa yama-Adventist, nangaphambi kokuba ukubhadula kwentlango kwabantu be-Advent kuphele ngo-2010. Olu lwazi kamva lwaba ngundoqo kwisifundo se-Orion. Iwotshi kaThixo ibingenakufundeka ngaphandle kwayo.

Ngoko iHidekeli imele abantu bakaThixo bexesha lokugqibela. Kwakuyisitshixo se-Orion, kodwa kunye nesizathu sokuba abantu be-Advent banqabe oku kukhanya okukhulu okutsha. Ibiya kukhokelela ekuthululweni kwemvula yamva ikwimo yoMoya oyiNgcwele njengengelosi yesine ukusukela ngo-2010 ukuya phambili. Ukukhankanywa kokuba umlambo iHidekeli oqukuqela ngasempuma yeAsiriya, kwalatha kwingcambu elula H833 ethetha “ukubizwa okanye ukusikelelwa.” IBandla lama-Adventist lalifanele ukuba libe lilo elifumana intsikelelo eyaprofetwayo ekupheleni kweentsuku ezili-1335 zikaDaniyeli 12 , kodwa inkani yeenkokeli namalungu—ephikisana naleyo yoSirayeli wamandulo—yayithintela loo ntsikelelo kwibandla lomgwebo, iLawodike. AmaYuda akazange amqonde uYesu xa weza kubantu baKhe waza wema ecaleni kwabo, yaye ama-Adventist akazange amqonde uYesu xa wabonakala phezu kwawo eOrion, nangona uEllen G. White ecaphula iOrion njengesihlalo sikaThixo, itempile nendawo yenkonzo yokuthethela kaYesu kwingcwele yasezulwini.

Asisamangalisi ukuba kutheni kwafuneka umlambo wesine ukuzisa amanzi obomi nokuba kutheni lo mlambo ukhankanywe kwakule ndinyana inye. Intshukumo yethu ngokuqinisekileyo inxulumene ngokusondeleyo neCawa yama-Adventist. Siyintsalela ethembekileyo yebandla elinye kwaye sakha phezu kwako konke ukukhanya kwayo okulungileyo. Kwinqaku Ukuphela kweCawa yama-Adventist unokubona umfanekiso omhle kakhulu nofanayo wokumanyana kwentsalela yentsalela emfanekisweni womfazi olungileyo weSityhilelo 12. Siboniswa njengeenkwenkwezi kwisithsaba somfazi. Isithsaba yayiliBandla lama-Adventist, kwaye iinkwenkwezi zezesithsaba kanye njengomlambo wesine umEfrate ukhankanywa kumphefumlo ofanayo noweHidekeli.

Igama lowesithathu umlambo yiHidekele; nguwo ocanda ngasempumalanga kwaseAsiriya. Owesine ngumlambo UmEfrate. (IGenesis 2: 14)

Imimoya emine ibotshelelwe kulo mjelo wesine, ongenakufanekisela omnye umntu ngaphandle kwethu, ama-Adventist aphezulu eSabatha. Sele sicacise banzi ngentla apha ukuba kutheni lo mlambo umele intshukumo yethu. Sade sachaza indawo yethu yejografi kwi ILizwi likaThixo waza waphawula indlela esilifanela ngayo ingcaciso yelizwi likaThixo njengamanzi amaninzi. KuHezekile 47:1 , uThixo wanikela imiyalelo eqala kweyona ngxangxasi inkulu ehlabathini, ukuwela imilambo eyahlukahlukeneyo ukuya kwifama yethu ukuya kutsho kanye kwiminyango yetempile yethu.

UThixo waprofeta kwincwadi yokuqala yeBhayibhile ukuba ibandla lakhe lesine elingumEfrate ngenye imini liya kuba namava okukhululwa kwemimoya emine, okanye eliya kuba negunya phezu kwalo. Amanzi obomi, ngawo Isitya Sexesha uya kutshayelwa sisibetho sesithandathu. Oku akuthethi ukuba nabani na unokusindiswa ebudeni bexesha lezibetho ngamanzi ukuya kutsho kwisibetho sesithandathu, kodwa kuphawula ukuphela kwesigidimi sexesha ngokwaso. Kwisibetho sesithandathu, ekugqibeleni kuya kwenziwa isigqibo sokufa kwabali-144,000 1847. Ekubeni beya kuthi cwaka, uThixo ngokwakhe uya kunika ixesha kwakhona ngaphambi nje kokufika kukaYesu njengohlobo lokuqinisekiswa kwabantu bakhe, kwaye ngaloo ndlela umbono olandelayo ka-Ellen G. White we-XNUMX uya kuzaliseka. Kuyo, weva isibhengezo sesibini selo xesha. Uya kwandula ke owokugqibela kwimilambo emine iyeke ukuqukuqela!

Kwakusezinzulwini zobusuku awathi uThixo wakhetha ukubahlangula abantu bakhe. Bathi bakuba begculela abangendawo, kwathi gqi ilanga likhanya ngamandla alo, yema nenyanga. Abakhohlakeleyo bawujonga lo mboniso bekhwankqisiwe, ngeli lixa abangcwele babebona ngovuyo olundilisekileyo imiqondiso yenkululeko yabo. Imiqondiso nezimanga zalandela ngokukhawuleza. Yonke into yayibonakala ijikile kwindlela yayo yendalo. Yayeka imilambo ukuqukuqela. Kwavela amafu amnyama nanzima aza angquzulana. Kodwa kwakukho indawo enye ecacileyo yobuqaqawuli obuzinzisiweyo, apho ilizwi likaThixo laphuma khona njengamanzi amaninzi, linyikimisa izulu nomhlaba. Kwabakho inyikima enkulu. Avuleka ke amangcwaba, baza abo bafa benokholo ngenxa yelizwi lesithunywa sesithathu, begcina isabatha, baphuma kwiimandlalo zabo ezinothuli, bezukisiwe. Ukuva umnqophiso woxolo awayeza kuwenza uThixo nabo bawugcinayo umthetho wakhe.

Isibhakabhaka savuleka savaleka kwaza kwaxokozela. Iintaba zazamazama njengengcongolo nomoya, zaza zangqungqa amatye akrazukileyo ngeenxa zonke. Ulwandle lwalubila njengembiza, lwagibisela amatye emhlabeni. Kwaye UThixo wathetha umhla nelixa lokuza kukaYesu waza wawunikela umnqophiso ongunaphakade ebantwini Bakhe, Wathetha isivakalisi esinye, waza wathi cwaka, ngeli lixa amazwi ayeqengqeleka emhlabeni. USirayeli kaThixo wema ekhangele phezulu, ephulaphule amazwi njengoko ayephuma emlonyeni kaYehova yaye eqengqeleka emhlabeni njengeendudumo ezinkulu. Kwakundilisekile ngokoyikekayo. Ekupheleni kwesivakalisi ngasinye abangcwele badanduluka, “Luzuko! Haleluya!” Ubuso bawo bakhanyiselwa bubuqaqawuli bukaThixo, baza bakhanya bubuqaqawuli obunjengobuso bukaMoses ekuhleni kwakhe eSinayi. Abangendawo babengenakukhangela kubo ukuze bafumane uzuko. Kwaye xa intsikelelo engenasiphelo kwavakaliswa kwabo babemhlonele uThixo ukuyigcina ngcwele iSabatha yakhe, kwabakho intswahla enkulu yoloyiso phezu kwerhamncwa nomfanekiselo walo. {EW 285.1–2}

Ukuphela Kongqingo

UHezekile uyincwadi yexesha lethu—yokutywinwa kwabali-144,000 XNUMX—yaye iqulethe amatye anqabileyo amaninzi angakumbi axabisekileyo kwintshukumo yethu. Sikholelwa ukuba sifumene enye ilitye kubuncwane bukaHezekile, kwaye sinethemba lokuba siyifundisise kakuhle yonke into. Ixesha liza kuxela kungekudala ukuba sichanekile okanye asilunganga ngale ngcaciso ilandelayo.

Sitolike ngokugqibeleleyo amaxesha kaDaniel 12 emva konyaka wobabalo ngoncedo lweHSL (Isitya Sexesha), kwaye wayenokuxela kwangaphambili ixesha elichanekileyo lokurhoxa kukaBenedict XVI, unyulo lukaFrancis lukapopu kunye nokuqala kweentsuku ezingama-1260 zexesha lenkathazo ngokusekwa kweenjengele zikaJesuit Francis. Kanye njengokuba siye sakwenza oko, incwadi kaHezekile yasinceda safumana elinye ixesha elibonisa enye ingongoma ebalulekileyo kwixesha lenkqubo kaThixo.

Khumbula indlela esiye sacacisa ngayo amaxesha exesha likaDaniel 12. Sifumene iRosetta Stone ka-Ellen G. White (i-1888-1890 triplet) okwesibini kwi-triplet ye-2013-2015. Emva kokuba sazi Impazamo kaMiller waze wafumana ukubuya kwesibini kukaYesu ngoMhla oMkhulu wokuGqibela (Shemini Atzeret) ka-2016, kwaba lula ukubala umva imihla ye-1335 kaDaniyeli 12 ukuya kuFebruwari 27-28, 2013. Kulapho uBenedict XVI warhoxayo. Sasisazi ukuba ukuqala kunye nokuphela kwexesha le-1290 kunye ne-1260-day linexesha kufuneka libe phakathi kweentsuku ze-1335, kwaye bobabini kufuneka baphele kunye. Isibanzi sexeshana sasingesikhulu kakhulu, kwaye sakrokrela isithuba seentsuku ezingama-30 kude kube sekupheleni kwexesha. Oko kwangqinwa kuyinyaniso ngokugqibeleleyo. Xa uFrancis wanyulwa ngo-Matshi13, kwacaca ukuba esinye isiganeko esibalulekileyo kufuneka senzeke kanye ngo-Aprili 13 ukuqalisa ukuqala kwexesha le-1260 lenkathazo.

Iintsuku ze-1335 zimelwe kuDaniyeli 12 njengexesha lokulinda, kwaye yiloo nto kanye abaziva ngayo.

Unoyolo lowo linda, wafika kwiintsuku eziliwaka, elinamakhulu amathathu, anamanci mathathu anesihlanu. ( Daniyeli 12:12 )

Nantsi ke nomonde abangcwele, naba abayigcinayo imithetho kaThixo nokukholwa kuYesu. ( ISityhilelo 14:12 )

Yayilixesha lokulinda eliphakathi kokurhoxa kukapopu wesixhenxe ukususela ngowe-1929, xa inxeba lerhamncwa lokuqala laqalisa ukuphola laza lavunyelwa ukuba lihlale umzuzwana nje, kwaza kwafika uYesu (unoyolo lowo udla ubomi ukuza kuthi ga ngelo xesha).

Nantsi ingqiqo enobulumko. Iintloko ezisixhenxe ezi ziintaba ezisixhenxe, ehleli phezu kwazo inkazana leyo. Kananjalo zona zingookumkani abasixhenxe: abahlanu bawile, omnye ukho; [Pope John Paul II] omnye ke akakafiki; athi ke akufika. makahlale ithuba elifutshane. [Benedict XVI] (Isityhilelo 17: 9-10)

Intsingiselo yesi siprofeto ayizange iqondwe ngokucacileyo njengokuba injalo namhlanje. Abazange bamvumele uBenedict ukuba ahlale engupopu. Kwanyanzeleka ukuba arhoxe ukuze amisele indawo upopu wesibhozo nomtshutshisi wabantu bakaThixo bokwenyaniso. Yiyo loo nto uBenedict wayenokuhlala nje ixeshana elincinane (malunga neminyaka esi-7).

Upopu wesibhozo wonyulwa ngoMatshi 13, kwaye iintsuku ze-1290 zikaDaniel 12 zaqala ngaye:

Kwaye ukususela kwixesha oya kususwa ngayo umbingelelo wemihla ngemihla, kwaye isikizi eliphanzisayo misa, kuya kubakho iintsuku eziliwaka elinamakhulu amabini anamashumi alithoba. ( Daniyeli 12:11 )

Ngaloo ndlela, isikizi lesiphanziso liye lachongwa njengoPopu Francis. Yayingekuko ukunyanzeliswa komthetho weCawe njengoko amanye ama-Adventist ayekholelwa (kodwa wawusoloko uthandabuza ngokunzulu). Sibhale ngokweenkcukacha malunga nemihla ngemihla kwaye ngubani owayisusayo kwi Isilumkiso sokugqibela uthotho.

Kuya kwenzeka ntoni kuPopu Francis?

kwaye urhirho lowo wayekho, akakho, kwanguye ngowesibhozo, kwaye ungowabasixhenxe, kwaye uye entshabalalweni. (ISityhilelo 17: 11)

Ayilothemba lihle lawo kapopu “olungileyo” nothobekileyo ongumJesuit. Yena ngokwakhe uquka irhamncwa lokuqala lesiTyhilelo 13, obona bubi bukhulu obakhe bakho kwipopu. Uquka i-Counter-Reformation kunye nokuncinwa kwayo kunye nokubulawa kwabantu abaninzi ngamaJesuit. Obo bubukhosi behlabathi besibhozo, uLungelelwaniso Lwehlabathi Olutsha, obuya kutshatyalaliswa ziintlanga ngexesha lezibetho. Uya kufikelela isiphelo sakhe edikeni lomlilo ekufikeni kukaYesu, ekunye nomprofeti wobuxoki (ubuProtestanti obuwexukileyo):

kwaye urhirho ithathiwe, kunye naye umprofeti wobuxoki lowo wayenzayo imiqondiso phambi kwalo, wabalahlekisa ngayo abo balwamkelayo uphawu lwerhamncwa, nabo baqubudayo kuwo umfanekiselo walo; Bobabini baphoswa edikeni lomlilo behleli ukuvutha isulfure. ( ISityhilelo 19:20 )

Ekubeni imigca yexesha le-1290 kunye neentsuku ze-1260 zesifungo sikaYesu kuDaniyeli 12 kufuneka ziyeke kunye nokutshatyalaliswa kweNew World Order, sasisazi kwakhona isiqalo esichanekileyo seentsuku ze-1260 ngo-Aprili 13, 2013. Ngokuqinisekileyo sasizibuza ukuba yeyiphi isiganeko esiya kwenzeka ngaloo mini, kwaye bamangaliswa kukuba i-Pope entsha ye-pope-ibhunga lehlabathi limisela kanye ibhunga lehlabathi likaPopu Francis. Isithili ngasinye amaJesuit asahlula kuso isijikelezi-langa safumana esaso inkokheli.

Ikwazalisekisa esi siprofeto sikaDaniyeli 11:

Uya kuzityala ke iintente zebhotwe lakhe phakathi kweelwandle entabeni engcwele yobuqaqawuli; ukanti uya kufika ekupheleni kwakhe, kungabikho umncedayo. ( Daniyeli 11:45 )

Kwiminyaka ye-2010-2012 sinike izilumkiso zesigidimi se-Orion (amahemuhemu avela kwimpuma yezulu) kunye nezilumkiso ze-Vessel of Time (amahemuhemu avela kumntla wezulu, ingcwele kaThixo). Oko kwabeka amaJesuit eVatican kwindawo exineneyo. Ngoku babesazi ukuba iqela elincinane labantu laliqalise ukuqokelela amangqina kaBawo ali-144,000 45. Yiyo loo nto bagqabhuka ngobushushu obukhulu ukuba bamthabathe uBenedict; kwakufuneka bazithathele ngokwabo iinkokeli. Kwindinyana yama-XNUMX asixelelwa nto malunga nemfazwe evulekileyo, kodwa kuphela ungqingo. Ukumiselwa kweentente zebhotwe kunenkcazelo emfutshane yejografi: ulwandle lubonakala kwisininzi “njengeelwandle.”

Kumanqaku Ilizwi likaThixo kwaye Ukutshintsha kweNdawo, sabonisa ngokucacileyo ukuba uThixo uye wanyula ifama yethu encinane ukuba ibe yinkokeli eyintloko yabantu Bakhe nanjengembonakaliso yasemhlabeni yeYerusalem Entsha. Upopu omtsha ngupopu wokuqala ongengowaseYurophu embalini, kwaye uphuma kwilizwe lasebumelwaneni iArgentina. Ngoku khawujonge indawo ekuyo ifama yethu kwisithili saseCordillera (iSithili seNtaba yaseParaguay) xa sithelekisa neArgentina.

IArgentina yenza intshukumo yepincer ngqo kwindawo esemazantsi-mpuma eParaguay apho ikhoyo ifama yethu. Sinqunyulwe ngokusemthethweni yiArgentina kwicala lazo zombini iilwandle-uLwandlekazi lwePasifiki ukuya entshona kunye noLwandlekazi lweAtlantiki ukuya empuma. Intaba engcwele yasemhlabeni irhangqwe ngengqiqo efuziselayo ngupopu waseArgentina. Uopopu umise iintente zawo zase-Argentina, ethe phithi thwanga ngeRoma ngoku, kungekuphela nje ngenxa yokuba yavelisa upopu okwesihlandlo sokuqala, kodwa neyokuqala evela eMzantsi Melika. UFrancis ukwanobudlelwane obukhethekileyo nomfazi waseParaguay esele echonge iMbasa yeNobel Peace Prize. Usebenzisa lonke ithuba ukudumisa umfazi waseParaguay ngenkalipho yakhe ekukhuseleni nasekwakheni ngokutsha ilizwe lakhe emva kweMfazwe yoMdibaniso kaThathu. Singqingwe kwaye siyaziva. Sibethwa kukugodola okubandayo kwehlabathi elisingqongileyo elingamaKatolika, phantse ngaphandle kokukhetha.

Ihlabathi liphela liye langqingwa ngokunjalo nathi, ewe, ukususela ekusekweni kweenjengele zamaJesuit ngoAprili 13, 2013. Simele nje ungqingo lwehlabathi lonke oluchasene nenyaniso ngobuxoki noLungelelwaniso lweHlabathi eNtsha. Jonga nje indlela iinkonzo zehlabathi ezidibana ngayo ngoku eVatican inkolo yehlabathi elinye. Andinalo ixesha kunye nendawo yokupakisha yonke into eyenzekayo kwinqanaba lenqaku esele lide kakhulu. Owona mbuzo ubalulekileyo ngulo: xa ungqingo luya kujika lube luhlaselo?

Impendulo inokufihlwa kumaxesha kaHezekile, njengoko benditshilo ekuqaleni kweli nqaku. KwiSahluko 4 sikaHezekile, lo mprofeti uyalelwa ukuba abangqinge abemi baseYerusalem, nto leyo eyayifanisa imeko ababeza kujamelana nayo phantsi koNebhukadenetsare.

Wena ke, nyana womntu, thabatha isitena, usibeke phambi kwakho, ukrole phezu kwaso umzi, iYerusalem; kulala ungqingo ngokuchasene nayo, kwaye wakhe a strong [inqaba yokungqinga] ngokuchasene nayo, uyifumbele udonga lokungqinga; uwumisele iminquba; umise iindonga zokutyhomfa ngeenxa zonke. Wena ke, zithabathele kuwe ipani yentsimbi, [intsimbi ifuzisela iRoma hayi iBhabhiloni!] wayibeka eludongeni isinyithi phakathi kwakho nomzi, ubhekise ubuso bakho kuwo, kube njalo kungqingwa, kwaye wowungqinga wena. Oku kuya kuba uphawu kwindlu kaSirayeli. ( Hezekile 4:1-3 )

Emva koko sifunda ngamaxesha:

Wena ke, lala ngecala lakho lasekhohlo, ububeke ubugwenxa bendlu kaSirayeli phezu kwalo:ngangenani leentsuku oya kulala ngalo, uya kubuthwala ubugwenxa babo. Ngokuba iminyaka yobugwenxa babo ndiyenza ukuba ube phezu kwakho ibe ngangenani leentsuku; iintsuku ezimakhulu mathathu anamanci asithoba, uya kubuthwala ubugwenxa bendlu kaSirayeli. Wakuba uzifezile ezo, ulale ngecala lakho lasekunene; thwala ubugwenxa bendlu kaYuda iintsuku ezimashumi mane. Imini lemini ndikwenze umnyaka ube ngumnyaka; ( Hezekile 4:4-6 )

Abahlalutyi beBhayibhile bakufumanisa kunzima ukuyiqonda le minyaka ingama-390, nto leyo ezekeliswa kusetyenziswa umgaqo wonyaka wosuku, kuba inani elide lookumkani bakwaSirayeli ngokuqhelekileyo liyaliwa namhlanje. Nangona kunjalo, siqinisekisile ukubala okude ngewotshi ye-Orion, kwaye yenza umfanekiso ogqibeleleyo. Kuya kuba kuninzi kakhulu ukubonisa apha, nangona kunjalo. Abahlalutyi abanangxaki ngeminyaka engama-40 yezono zikaYuda.

Sinomdla, nangona kunjalo, kungekhona kwindlela ezisebenza ngayo ezi ndinyana kwixesha elidlulileyo, kodwa intsingiselo ebalulekileyo yethu ixesha ngokukaEllen G. White. Ngaloo nto, kufuneka sibuyele kumgaqo wemihla ngemihla ophumela ekungqingweni okupheleleyo kwe-390 + 40 = 430 iintsuku.

Ukuqala ngeentsuku ezingama-430 zokungqingwa kwehlabathi ngoAprili 13, 2013 ngokugxunyekwa kweentente zebhotwe zeenjengele zamaJesuit kuzo zonke iindawo zehlabathi kusizisa kuJuni 17, 2014 njengomhla wokugqibela. Sawubona lo mhla kanye ngaphambili kweli nqaku! Uyakhumbula phi? Ewe, ngumhla wokudityaniswa okanye wokuchithwa kwezindlu zethu zopapasho. Enye indlela okanye enye, oku sele kuhlaselo olukhulu kwi-Adventism nganye!

Kodwa kuHezekile 5, uhlaselo luchazwa ngokubi ngakumbi kwaye ngokuqinisekileyo luya kulindeleka ngoLwesithathu, ngoJuni 18, 2014 emva kokuphela kongqingo, ukuba sisiqonda ngokuchanekileyo esi siprofeto. Xa ufunda isicatshulwa seBhayibhile, umntu akanakuzibamba kodwa acinge ngomlilo ombi e-Battle Creek:

Wena ke, nyana womntu, thabatha ikrele elibukhali, libe sisitshetshe sokuguya, ulihambise entlokweni yakho nasesilevini sakho, uthabathe isikali sokulinganisela, uzahlule iinwele. Isahlulo sesithathu uze usitshise ngomlilo esazulwini somzi, zakuzaliseka iintsuku zongqingo. uthabathe nesinye isahlulo sesithathu, uxabele ngemela ngeenxa zonke kuso, nesinye isahlulo sesithathu usichithachithe emoyeni; ndirhole ikrele emva kwabo. Uze uthabathe kuyo zibe mbalwa, uzibophe embhinqweni wakho; Uze uthabathe kuzo, uziphose emlilweni, uzitshise emlilweni; kuba kuyo kuya kuphuma umlilo, uye kuyo yonke indlu kaSirayeli. ( Hezekile 5:1-4 )

Uhlaselo lokuqala olunombhalo othi “isahlulo sesithathu sisitshise ngomlilo esazulwini somzi” lufana noHezekile 9, ekubeni uhlaselo luphakathi kweso sixeko nalapho.

Wathi kwamanye ezindlebeni zam, Yilandeleni esixekweni, ningabi nanceba iliso lenu, ningabi nanceba iliso lenu; kodwa ningasondeli kuye nawuphi na umntu anophawu; niqale engcweleni yam. Baqalela kumadoda amakhulu abephambi kwendlu. (UHezekile 9: 5-6)

Kuphela ngabo banophawu loMoya oyiNgcwele emabunzini abo abaya kukhuselwa. Namhlanje sinako ukwahlula phakathi komqondiso owafunyanwa ngabo bancwinayo nabakhalela amasikizi enziwa kweso sixeko kunye netywina le-144,000. Umqondiso wokuncwina nokukhala okuya kukhusela kolu hlaselo lwamaxilongo wamkelwa ngabagqatswa be-144,000 XNUMX kwakunye nabafeli-nkolo abanyulwe nguThixo, ngenxa yokuba bengengabo abantu abangendawo abawexukileyo abaphulukana nobomi babo kule migwebo. Abafeli-nkolo kamva baya kunikela ubungqina ngokufa kwabo kwiNkundla yamaJesuit yokuNcina amakholwa ehlaziyiweyo njengoko bemelana nomthetho wangeCawa.

Itywina le-144,000 kukwandiswa kweli tywina. Siza kujongana nayo ngoku kwinxalenye yokugqibela yeli nqaku.

Itywina le-144,000

U-Ellen G. White wabona iinkcukacha malunga netywina elinqwenelekayo le-144,000 kumbono wakhe wokuqala:

Ngeli xesha abali-144,000 bonke babetywiniwe yaye bemanyene ngokugqibeleleyo. Emabunzini abo kubhaliwe kwathiwa. Thixo, IYerusalem entsha, kwaye Inkwenkwezi ezukileyo enegama elitsha likaYesu. [ ISityhilelo 3:12 .]... {I-WLF 14.3}

Thelekisa iimpawu zayo kunye neempawu zeSityhilelo 3:12:

Lowo weyisayo ndiya kumenza intsika etempileni yoThixo wam, angabi saphuma; ndibhale phezu kwakhe. igama loThixo wam, kwaye igama lomzi woThixo wam, oyiYerusalem entsha, ohla uphuma emazulwini uvela kuThixo wam; kwaye ndiya kubhala phezu kwakhe igama lam elitsha. (ISityhilelo 3: 12)

Ngoku zibuze:

Ngaba uyalazi igama elitsha likaYesu? Ngaba uyayazi inkwenkwezi emele Yena kwaye isembindini wewotshi? Uyamazi uYesu eyona mpawu ibalulekileyo, esisembindini wendalo iphela? Ngaba unokufikelela kwizigqibo ngawe nangobuntu bakho—obufanele bufane noKristu, okanye obufanayo noKristu—ngeliphi idini omele ukulungele ukulenza njengomnye we-144,000 XNUMX?

Ngaba uyasazi isizathu sokuba igama lesixeko sikaThixo libhalwe emabunzini e-144,000 XNUMX? Ngaba uyasiqonda isixeko esingcwele xa uYesu ebuya? Ngaba uyayiqonda indlela uYesu awakwazi ngayo ukwenza uhambo lweentsuku ezisixhenxe ukuya kwisiXeko esiNgcwele eOrion nasemva yonke ngentsasa yovuko lwaKhe, ukutyelela itempile kaBawo, ukubeka izono zoluntu emkhusaneni, aze abuye ngexesha abonakale adibane nabapostile kwigumbi eliphezulu? Ngaba unayo ingqiqo ye-a ipropathi esisiseko yeSixeko esiNgcwele kunye noMyezo wase-Eden okhoyo kuwo? (Ukuba akunjalo, funda i Izithunzi zamadini, iCandelo II kwakhona.) Kodwa akuphelelanga apho! Ngaba uyayiqonda kwakhona indawo ekuyo iYerusalem Entsha emhlabeni, nalapho ilizwi likaThixo elinjengamanzi amaninzi livela khona, eliqondwa kuphela li-144,000? Ngaba ngokwenene uyawaqonda amanqaku malunga Ilizwi likaThixo kwaye i Ukutshintsha kweNdawo, yaye ngaba ngokwenene ujolisa iindlebe zakho kwicala laseParaguay?

Ngaba uyasazi uphawu okanye uphawu (igama) likaThixo uYise, olusafihliweyo, ekufuneka lutyhilwe kuwe nguMoya oyiNgcwele? Ngaba uyaqonda ukuba uya kutywinwa kuphela xa unolu lwazi? Ukufunda amaphepha ethu kuyanceda, kodwa uMoya oyiNgcwele kufuneka akuthabathe kwaye uvunyelwe ukuba uhlale kuwe ukuze ufumane eyona nxalenye ibalulekileyo yetywina eliphindwe kathathu lelinye labali-144,000. Ngenxa yoko, kufuneka ube zizitya ezihlambulukileyo kwaye wamkele isiluleko osinikwe kwindlela yaseOrion. Kufuneka uqale ngezinto ezincinane—njengokutya kwakho nendlela yokunxiba—ukuba ufuna ukufumana uphawu olubekekileyo lukaThixo. Kodwa ngokungakumbi, ufanele ukulungele ukwenza idini elimkholisayo uBawo nelingqina ukuba ngokwenene uye wafana noNyana Wakhe oyintanda.

Umninawa wam uRobert wathi ndiza kubhala ngale nto. Ngoku ndiyenzile. Ndiyathemba ukuba andikhange ndihambe kakhulu, kwaye andikutyhilelanga ukuba yintoni na le mpawu ingaziwayo kaThixo uBawo. Kodwa andifuni kukusindisa, ndikuxelele into esiyicingayo. Uhlobo lokuqala oluphambili lukaKristu eBhayibhileni lwalungenguye omnye ngaphandle koMoses, kwaye ingoma kaMoses iya kuculwa ngabo bonke abahlawulelweyo ezulwini ngenye imini emva kokubuya kwesibini kukaYesu:

Ndabona ngathi lulwandle lwegilasi [i-Orion Nebula] ixutywe nomlilo [ukusuka kwiBetelgeuse supernova]: bathi ke abo baloyisileyo irhamncwa, nomfanekiselo walo, nophawu lwalo, nenani legama lalo, bemi phezu kolwandle lwegilasi, beneehadi zikaThixo. Kwaye bavuma ingoma kaMoses umkhonzi kaThixo nengoma yeMvana, besithi, Mikhulu, ingummangaliso imisebenzi yakho, Nkosi, Thixo Somandla; zinobulungisa, ziyinyaniso iindlela zakho, Kumkani weentlanga. ( ISityhilelo 15:2-3 )

Kodwa i-144,000 XNUMX kufuneka ifunde ingoma entsha, abanakho kuphela:

Kwaye bacula ngokungathi kunjalo ingoma entsha phambi kwetrone, naphambi kwezinto eziphilileyo zone, namadoda amakhulu; kwaye kungekho namnye unako ukuyifunda ingoma leyo, lingelilo ikhulu elinamanci mane anesine lamawaka, ababethengiwe emhlabeni. ( ISityhilelo 14:3 )

Izidalwa eziphilayo ezine kunye namadoda amakhulu angama-24 ewotshi yeOrion acula ingoma entsha ekunikezelweni kwencwadi carillon ngowe-1844. Kuphela ngabo bayiqondayo incwadi yamatywina asixhenxe nokubaluleka kwayo njengeClock of Time eOrion ababenokufunda le ngoma:

Kwaye bona [izidalwa ezine eziphilayo = izandla zewotshi, kunye nabadala abangama-24 = ivili lewotshi yeOrion] Cula ingoma entsha, esithi, Ufanele wena ukuyithabatha incwadi, nokuwavula amatywina ayo; ( ISityhilelo 5:9 )

Kodwa funda isicatshulwa senkcazo yengoma ngokubanzi! Kwakutheni ukuze uYesu avunyelwe ukuba ayifumane le ncwadi? “Kuba ebulewe, wakhulula abantu ngegazi lakhe.” Ngaba ucinga ukuba uya kuvunyelwa ukuba ube ngowe-144,000 144,000 ngenxa nje yokuba uye waqonda ukuba iwotshi yeOrion iyinyaniso? Hayi, bahlobo bam. Izulu alitshiphu kangako. Kutheni le nto ingoma kaMoses endala ifaniswa kwiSityhilelo nengoma entsha ye-144,000 XNUMX? Yintoni awayenzayo uMoses njengomfuziselo kaKristu emele yenziwe nabali-XNUMX XNUMX?

UMoses wayemkhulu kunabo bonke ababekho ngaphambi kwakhe. Wayezukiswe kakhulu nguThixo, kuba wayenelungelo lokuthetha neNkosi ubuso ngobuso, njengomntu ethetha nomhlobo. Wavunyelwa ukuba abone ukukhanya okuqaqambileyo nozuko olubalaseleyo olwalugubungele uBawo. UYehova wabakhulula ngoMoses oonyana bakaSirayeli ebukhobokeni baseYiputa. UMoses wayenjalo umthetheleli wabantu bakhe; ngokufuthi emi phakathi kwabo nengqumbo kaThixo. Wavutha kunene umsindo kaYehova kumaSirayeli, ngenxa yokungakholwa kwawo, nokukrokra kwawo, nangenxa yezono zawo ezinzulu; Uthando lukaMoses ngabo lwavavanywa. UThixo waceba ukubatshabalalisa aze amenze uhlanga olunamandla. UMoses wabonisa uthando lwakhe kuSirayeli ngokuwabongozela kwakhe ngokunyanisekileyo. Ekubandezelekeni kwakhe wambongoza uYehova ukuba abuye ekuvutheni komsindo wakhe, awaxolele amaSirayeli; okanye ucime igama lakhe kwincwadi yaKhe. {EW 162.3}

Khawucinge nje ngako! Yintoni kanye kanye awayinikelayo uMoses ukuze uYehova ajike kumsindo wakhe nxamnye nabantu bakhe? Ngaba yayibubomi bakhe bokuqala basemhlabeni, obuthetha ukufa enethemba lovuko? Ithini kanye kanye isibhalo seBhayibhile?

ngoku ukuba uthe wasixolela isono sabo; kwaye ukuba akunjalo, ndicime, Ndiyakucela encwadini yakho oyibhalileyo. (IEksodus 32:32)

Ukosulwa komntu kwincwadi yobomi kuthetha ukufa kwesibini, ukungabikho ngonaphakade: akukho zulu, akukho konwaba, akukho kosulwa ziinyembezi, akukho luvuyo nolonwabo luhlala luhleli—kuphela ubuthongo obumnyama, obungekho zingqondweni nobungenaphupha bokwahlukaniswa ngokupheleleyo noThixo othandekayo wobomi. Yiloo nto kanye awayinikelayo uMoses, kwaye yiloo nto noYesu wayiva ubunzima ngenxa yethu:

UThixo ekuKristu wazinikela ngenxa yezono zethu. Wabandezeleka kukufa okukhohlakeleyo komnqamlezo [umnqamlezo "ukufa kwesibini" ukuba bonke aboni abangaguqukiyo bamele ngenye imini babandezeleke ( ISityhilelo 20:13-15 )], wasithwalela umthwalo wetyala, “ilungisa ngenxa yabangemalungisa,” ukuze asityhilele uthando lwakhe aze asitsalele kuye....Pr 298.2}

UThixo akazange alamkele idini elanikelwa nguMoses, waza wamvusa noYesu ekufeni kwesibini. UMoses wabuthabathela kuye ubugwenxa babantu bakwaSirayeli, njengoko uYesu wathabathela kuye ubutyala bobuntu obuwileyo. Simele sikulungele ukuva ubunzima bokufa ngonaphakade ngenxa yabantu bethu abawileyo be-Advent, ngenxa yoluntu oluwileyo, kunye nendalo engabonakaliyo egcwele ubomi obumsulwa. Ngoko kunokungqinwa ukuba amandla egazi likaYesu anokuvelisa ngokwenene amangqina okwenyaniso obulungisa bukaYise. Akukho namnye okuphela kwakhe inkxalabo yokuya ezulwini engakubonanga ukufa oya kuze abe ngomnye wabali-144,000 XNUMX. Ngokuchasene noko, ufanele akulungele ukubeka ubomi bakhe obungunaphakade esibingelelweni sedini lendalo iphela, aze athabathe umngcipheko wokungaze azuze ngokwenene kwicebo lentlawulelo njengomntu—konke oku ngenxa yothando lwakhe ngeentshaba zakhe, nakwizidalwa angazange azibone ngaphandle kwamehlo okholo.

Ngelixa inzondo nendelelo iphoswa kuthi ngabazalwana bethu, onke amalungu eqonga anikele izibhambathiso zawo kwaye anikela kuThixo ukuba awacime amagama abo kwincwadi yobomi ukuze abazalwana bawo kunye nendalo iphela bahlale kunye noYesu ngonaphakade. Baye baqonda ngokwenene ubizo lwabo oluphezulu.

Ngoku nguwe omi phambi kwesigqibo... Ngaba uya kwenza njengabafundi abangama-70 abamthoba uYesu, besithi:

Lilizwi elinzima eli; ngubani na onokuyiva? ( Yohane 6:60 )

... okanye uya kulandela uYesu, owangena kweyona Ngcwele ngegazi lakhe, njengomanduleli wenu:

Kuba apho umnqophiso [isiqinisekiso, isivumelwano, isibhambathiso] Kukwafuneka ukuba kubekho ukufa komyoleli. ( Hebhere 9:16 )

Ngaba uyasiqonda ngoku isizathu sokuba u-Ellen G. White abone kumbono wakhe wokuqala ukuba...

Njengoko sasisiya kungena etempileni engcwele, uYesu waphakamisa ilizwi Lakhe elithandekayo wathi, “Bali-144,000 kuphela abangena kule ndawo,” saza sakhwaza, “Haleluya.” {EW 18.2}

Ngoku okanye akusoze, kufuneka kushunyayelwe kuyo yonke indawo:

“Vuka, vuka; nxiba amandla akho, Ziyon! Nxiba iingubo zakho zokuhomba, Yerusalem, mzi ungcwele. . . . Hayi, ukuba zintle kwazo ezintabeni iinyawo zabashumayela iindaba ezilungileyo, zabavakalisa uxolo, zabashumayela iindaba ezilungileyo, zabavakalisa usindiso; abathi kwiZiyon, Uyalawula uThixo wakho! Phulaphula ilizwi lababoniseli bakho; baya kumemelela ngelizwi kunye, ngokuba bekubona iliso ekuyibuyiseni kukaYehova iZiyon.

Gqobhokelani ekumemeleleni kunye, manxuwa aseYerusalem; ngokuba uYehova ubathuthuzele abantu bakhe, uyihlawulele wayikhulula iYerusalem. UYehova uyihlubile ingalo yakhe engcwele emehlweni eentlanga zonke; yaye zonke iziphelo zehlabathi ziya kulubona ke usindiso loThixo wethu.” Isaya 52:1-10 . {3TT 342.2–3}
