Ipapashwe ngoLwesihlanu, 12 Okthobha 2012, 10:17 am ngesiJamani e www.letztercountdown.org

Saphakamisa iintloko zethu sajonga kwiOrion. Ukusuka apho, seva ilizwi likaThixo libalisa ibali labantu baKhe bexesha lesiphelo. Sathi ke emva koko sakufunda ngeeholide zamaYuda saza sakuqonda ukubaluleka “kweeSabatha eziPhakamileyo” (ekuxa iSabatha yomsitho ibakho ngeSabatha yomhla wesixhenxe), sanikwa ukuqonda okunzulu ngakumbi ukusuka kwiziganeko ezibalulekileyo endleleni yeBandla lamaSabatha. UThixo uyalatha kwaye akhanyise umsebenzi weli bandla likhethekileyo kwiincwadi ezimbini eziphambili ezikhankanywe eBhayibhileni: Incwadi yamaTywina aSixhenxe Orion kunye neNcwadi yeeNdudumo eziSixhenxe, ngoku esiyibiza ngokuba zi Isitya Sexesha, ebhalwe ngokuqhubekayo lilanga nenyanga.

IBandla leSDA lizibona njengenzaliseko yesiprofeto yomfazi weSityhilelo 12:1

Kwabonakala umqondiso omkhulu emazulwini; umfazi ethiwe wambu ngelanga, inyanga ingaphantsi kweenyawo zakhe, entloko kuye isisithsaba seenkwenkwezi ezilishumi elinambini: ( ISityhilelo 12:1 )

Ukujongwa ngokusondeleyo kwisimboli kulo mfanekiso kunika iziphumo ezimangalisayo.

1. Siya kufumanisa isicwangciso esityhilwa ngokuthe ngcembe kumfanekiso womfazi okwiSityhilelo 12:1, esinabela kulo mhla nangaphaya. Isimboli ngasinye simele ixesha elitsha kwicebo likaThixo losindiso.

2. Nanini na lafika ixesha lokuba inguquko yenzeke kwixesha elitsha lecebo losindiso, lalibakho elinye ukulungiselela nokuqokelela “umprofeti.” Le ngcamango yobuthixo ibonisa ubabalo lukaThixo olungenasiphelo, kuba uhlala enika izilumkiso ezininzi ngaphambi kokuba enze. Inene, iNkosi uYehova iya kwenza akukho nto, Ke yena uyaluhlakaza ucweyo lwakhe kubakhonzi bakhe abaprofeti. ( Amosi 3:7 )

3. UThixo ubeka phambi kwabantu baKhe ucango oluvulekileyo olunokukhanya okutsha kunye nenyaniso entsha yangoku kwinguqu nganye ukuya kwinqanaba elilandelayo lecebo losindiso. Noko ke, emva kwengongoma ethile, uqala ukuvala “umnyango wobabalo” kwabo bangathembekanga abangakulandeliyo ukukhanya okutsha. Abangathembekanga ubukhulu becala, abaqapheli ukuvalwa kocango kwaye bakholelwa ukuba basesendleleni elungileyo.

4. Kwinguquko nganye ukuya kwinqanaba elilandelayo lecebo losindiso, kukho “intsalela”. Ngalo lonke ixesha, kwakukho a ukuhluzwa kwabangathembekanga nokuhlanjululwa nokuvavanywa kwabathembekileyo. Yamqumbela umfazi inamba, yemka yaya kulwa naye amasalela embewu yakhe, abo bayigcinayo imithetho kaThixo, abanobungqina bukaYesu Kristu. ( ISityhilelo 12:17 )

INyanga phantsi kweenyawo zoMfazi

Uhlanga lwamaYuda lumelwa yinyanga ephantsi kweenyawo zomfazi. Ifuzisela iinkonzo zethunzi ababehlukaniswa ngazo abantu bakaThixo bangaphambili. Njengoko inyanga ibonakalisa ukukhanya kwelanga kuphela, ulungiselelo lwesithunzi lwalusisiprofeto nje sokuza kukaMesiya. Ngemisitho yawo, ubomi bawo bokuhlonel’ uThixo neentsikelelo ezityebileyo ezaziya kuphumela, amaSirayeli ayefanele achukumise izizwana ezaziwangqongile aze alungise iintliziyo zawo ukuze alungele isigidimi soMsindisi ozayo. Kodwa inkoliso yamaSirayeli yawa phantsi loo msebenzi yaye yakhula ukungathembeki kwayo kuThixo.

Njengoko lalifikile ixesha lokuba uMesiya abonakale, uThixo wakuvakalisa ngokucacileyo kwakhona kumaYuda ngoEliya wesibini, uYohane uMbhaptizi, owayeza kuhlahl’ indlela yobulungiseleli obuzukileyo boNyana kaThixo ngokwaKhe. UYesu ngokwakhe wathabatha indima ‘yomprofeti’ wokuqokelela waza washumayela iminyaka emithathu enesiqingatha phakathi kwabantu Bakhe ukuba ubukumkani bamazulu busondele nokuba kungekudala inkonzo yakhe yokuthethelela yayiza kuqalisa kwingcwele yasezulwini. Ngaloo ndlela, wayeyintsikelelo kodwa ekwangumqobo kwabaninzi. Bambalwa abaqondayo ukuba kukho umnyango ovulekileyo phambi kwabo ophuma entendelezweni ukuya kwiNdawo Engcwele yengcwele yasezulwini. Xa uYohane umbhaptizi eqalisa ukushumayela, wavakalisa ukuvulwa kocango lwabathembekileyo, yaye kubo bonke ababonayo nabamamelayo uYesu, lwavulwa banzi bangena ngalo.

Ngoko uhlanga lwamaYuda lwabiza kuThixo ukuba igazi likaYesu libe phezu kwalo nakubantwana balo, yaye uThixo wabanika umnqweno wabo. Balitywina ikamva labo ngokubulala uNyana kaThixo, owashumayela kubo ngeNgcwele yasezulwini kwitempile yabo yasemhlabeni, baza banyula uBharabhas endaweni yaKhe. Ucango oluvulekileyo olwalubekwe phambi kwabo “njengomnyango wobabalo” lwesizwe samaYuda lwaqalisa ukuvalwa, ukanti iNkosi yeZulu yabanika eminye iminyaka emithathu enesiqingatha emva koMeyi 25, AD 31 ngaphambi kokuba ashenxise isiphatho sesibane ebantwini baYo, ebenza abantu bangaphambili bakaThixo.

Kwakutheni ukuze uThixo alinde eminye iminyaka emithathu enesiqingatha? Yintoni enokuba mbi ngaphezu kokubethelela uNyana kaThixo? UStefano wawabona amazulu evulekile, neNkosi imi ngasekunene kukaThixo, kodwa endaweni yokuba eve iindumiso kuThixo weZulu awathi ngaye umbono wakhe ozukileyo wabonakaliswa, weva amatye esina phezu kwakhe evela ezandleni zabazalwana bakhe emzisa ekufeni okukhohlakeleyo. Kwanakwiminyaka emithathu enesiqingatha emva kokufa koNyana kaThixo, amaYuda ayengazange afunde nto. Baqhubeka bebabulala abaprofeti beNkosi ababefuna ukubaxelela okuthile ngengcwele yasezulwini kunye nokuthethelelwa awayekwenza uKristu apho, yaye ngoko isiphatho sesibane ekugqibeleni saya kwabo babeza kushumayela kwiiNtlanga: ibandla lokuqala lamaKristu.

Ngaphambili, uYesu wayehlanganise iintloko ezili-12—abapostile—ababeyintsalela ephuma kuwo wonke uSirayeli, yaye bayizukisa iNkosi yaye besazi apho ikhoyo ngokoqobo ngoku ngokoqobo; oko kukuthi, kwiNgcwele yengcwele yasezulwini. Kodwa akuzange kuviwe nanye intshumayelo yabo. Icebo losindiso lashunyayelwa iminyaka emithathu enesiqingatha ngaphezulu kumaYuda emva kokufa kukaYesu emnqamlezweni, yaye nangona ayebubona bonke ubungqina obuphambi kwawo yaye ekwazi nokuweva namangqina ovuko ngokwalo, iinkokeli zawo zamfulathela uMoya oyiNgcwele owayefuna ukuthetha nawo zaza ke ngoko zenza isono esingaxolelekiyo. Umnyango weNdawo Engcwele wawuvaliwe ngenxa yabo njengohlanga.

Umfazi enxibe iLanga

Umfazi weSityhilelo 12 ngokwakhe, emi enyangeni, ufuzisela ibandla lobuKristu, eliqalela ngabapostile kwaye ngokubanzi, lalikwiminyaka ka-AD 31 no-34, ngokulandelelanayo. Wambethe iLanga loBulungisa, eliyiNkosi ngokwayo, eyakhethwa njengeLitye lembombo. Ilanga livelisa ukukhanya kwalo, kanye njengokuba noYesu engumthombo wokukhanya kwenyaniso nobomi. Inkonzo yesithunzi yayingasenasidingo kwakhona ukufuzisela uMsindisi owayesele ebethelelwe emnqamlezweni waza wavuka kubo bonke uzuko lwakhe. Nangona kunjalo, icawa yobuKristu yayingayi kuhlala nemfundiso enyulu yantlandlolo, kodwa yawexuka. Umjikelo wetywina necawe uphela uchaza ukuxubana okumbi kweemfundiso zecawe nezo bekufanele ukuba bazishumayele. Amasiko neenkolelo zobuhedeni zangena nzulu ebandleni baza ubupopu baba sisixhobo sikaSathana sokutshabalalisa yonke into uYesu awayeyinike ibandla ngabapostile. Kodwa phezu kwako nje ukuxhaphaka kowexuko, ibandla lokwenyaniso likaThixo lalikho, nangona laliphelelwe ngamandla, lilondolozwe kubunyulu balo kwada kwahluzwa olunye olukhulu.

Ukususela kuHlaziyo, kwavela uluntu oluninzi lwamaProtestanti olwalungekafikeleli kuko konke ukwahlulwa kwimpembelelo yobuhedeni neyobupopi ngenxa yokuba babengaqondi ukuba ukugcina iCawa endaweni yeSabatha yasebhayibhileni kuthetha ulwamkelo lophawu loPontifi waseRoma. Ngoko uHlaziyo, olwasekwa ngokubanzi ukususela ngowe-1517 ukusa kowe-1648, lwasilela kumbandela weSabatha kwiBhunga laseTrent. Kodwa uThixo wayeza kuwuzisa lo mbuzo ngokukhawuleza ngenye indlela aze anike ukukhanya okukhulu ngemini engcwele yokuphumla eyamiselwa nguThixo ngegunya Lakhe.

Malunga nowe-1820, uThixo wavelisa “umprofeti” wokuqala wokulungiselela isifundo seBhayibhile. Umlimi waseMntla Melika uWilliam Miller wayengumsunguli wentshukumo yengelosi yokuqala yesiTyhilelo 14 kwaye wayeza kubhengeza ixesha lomgwebo kaThixo. USamuel Snow ukwabhengeze umyalezo omkhulu nowoyikekayo: “Iwile iBhabheli!” ibe yayinabalandeli abanamandla njengentloko yesigidimi sengelosi yesibini, eyayibonisa izono nezikreqo zamabandla awexukileyo amaProtestanti awayesayigcina imithetho yamaRoma endaweni yobuthixo. Zombini iintshukumo zeengelosi zabhengeza isigaba esitsha esisondele kwicebo likaThixo losindiso. Xa, ehlotyeni lowe-1844, babehlanganisene ndawonye bada bashumayela kanye kanye umhla wokuqalisa koMgwebo (babecinga, nangona kunjalo, ukuba yayiyimini yokuza kukaYesu), “isikhalo esikhulu sasezinzulwini zobusuku” savakala sisilumkiso samabandla obuKristu ukuwasusa kwizono zaseBhabhiloni nokuwalungiselela uMgwebo.

Abo basithobelayo isilumkiso baza bazilungiselela ngokomoya, kuquka nesimilo sabo, nabo babeza kuxhathisa uvavanyo uThixo awayelucwangcise ngenguqulelo eya kwisigaba esilandelayo. Kuba uThixo ngokwakhe wayengumbhali woKuphoxwa okuKhulu ka-1844, kuba wayegcine umnwe wakhe ekuqondeni ukuba yayingeyiyo imini yokubuya kukaYesu, eyabhengezwa sisikhalo sasezinzulwini zobusuku, njengoko wonke umntu wayekholelwa. Xa uYesu engazange afike ngexesha awayelilindele, ekuphela kwabantu abakwaziyo ukulugcina ukholo lwabo yayingabo babekholose ngokungagungqiyo ekuthembekeni kweLizwi likaThixo yaye kungekho moya unokubashukumisa. Bamfuna uThixo ngokuzithemba ngakumbi kunangaphambili, kodwa benza impazamo ekutolikeni kwabo ilizwi likaThixo. Bangaphi abaza kuma?

Ukuphoxeka okuKhulu kwakubandakanye onke amabandla amakhulu omhlaba emva kwesikhalo saphakathi kwebandla ezinzulwini zobusuku sengelosi edityanisiweyo yokuqala neyesibini yesiTyhilelo 14. Emva koko, kwaphinda kwasala kuphela abantu abali-12 ukuze baqhubeke behamba, ngoxa abanye babekulahlile baza bakulahla ukukhanya. Iya kuba ngaba vulindlela bali-12 beCawa yama-Adventist yamva, abathi ngo-Oktobha 23, 1844 bayibona iNyaniso yeNgcweliso baza balandela uYesu apho wayeye khona. UHiram Edson, osandul’ ukunyulwa nguThixo ‘njengomprofeti’ ohlanganisayo, onamehlo akhe okomoya njengoStefano, wabona izulu livulekile noYesu elungiselela phambi koYise kwiNgcwele kaNgcwele ngenxa yethu. Kuphela ngoovulindlela abali-12 bamaSabatha nabo bawubonayo lo mnyango uvulekileyo weSityhilelo 4:1 kwingcwele yasezulwini kunye noThixo, bedlula embundwini weNdawo Engcwele kangcwele kwiNkundla yasezulwini ngenxa yobulungiseleli bobugqwetha bukaYesu kumgwebo wophando, apho ukususela ngoku ukuya phambili wayeya kwenza ukuhlanjululwa kwengcwele yoMhla Wocamagusho wasezulwini. Iinyaniso ezinkulu zatyhilwa kubo baza bamlandela ngokwasemoyeni uThixo apho, apho iTyeya yoMnqophiso eneMithetho Elishumi yayikhona, kwaye uMoya kaThixo kamsinya emva koko wavula ukuqonda koMyalelo weSine olahlekileyo njengesenzo sokugqibela sokuhlanjululwa ukuze kubuyiselwe ivangeli kubunyulu bayo.

Ngalo lonke ixesha, xa kwakukho inguqulelo ukusuka kwelinye ixesha lomfazi kwiSityhilelo 12 ukuya kwelinye, yayilixesha lokuvala ucango lwenceba kwabo balugatyayo ucango oluvulekileyo. Xa amaYuda aphulukana neziphatho zezibane zawo, le nkqubo yaqala ngomhla (ngoku) owawunokuqinisekiswa ngokuthe ngqo: Meyi 25, AD 31 xa abangela ukuba uYesu abethelelwe emnqamlezweni. Kodwa ixesha labo lobabalo lalingekapheli. INkosi yabanika eminye iminyaka emithathu enesiqingatha de ekugqibeleni, xa bengazange bavume kwaye bamxuluba ngamatye uStefano, ucango lwavalwa. Ngeli xesha, igospile yashunyayelwa eYerusalem ngamandla ayo onke kumaYuda nakwiiNtlanga, kodwa yayingabhekiswanga ngokusemthethweni kwiiNtlanga kwaye akukho hambo lokuvangela luthathiweyo. USawule wabizwa nguYesu kamsinya nje emva kokuxulutywa ngamatye kukaStefano, yaye ngaloo ndlela ixesha elitsha lobuKristu kwiiNtlanga laliqalise ekugqibeleni, nangona ngokuqinisekileyo kwiminyaka emithathu enesiqingatha ngaphambili, abanye abahedeni baguqukela kuYesu.

Eli tyala lalifana kakhulu ngexesha lokuphuma kwicawa yamaKristu ngexesha lokugwetywa kwabantu—iCawa yeSDA. Njengoko u-Oktobha 22, 1844 wadlulayo—umhla woKuphoxeka Okukhulu—abaninzi babelubethelele emnqamlezweni ukholo lwabo kwisiprofeto seBhayibhile nakuYesu owayeza kubuya kungekudala. Kwaphinda kwadlula iminyaka emibini de uEllen G. White nomyeni wakhe bayamkela inyaniso yeSabatha baza ke ivangeli enyulu ngenene yaqalisa ukushunyayelwa kwakhona. EBhayibhileni, eli xesha lenguquko libonakaliswa ngokucacileyo ngumahluko wexesha lokuza “koNyangelemihla” nokuza “koNyana woMntu”.

Isithsaba soMfazi

ndabona zada zabekwa iitrone, wahlala uNyangelemihla; iingubo zakhe zimhlophe njengekhephu, neenwele zentloko yakhe zinjengoboya bezimvu obusulungekileyo; Itrone yakhe ibingamalangatye omlilo, neevili zayo ingumlilo ovuthayo. Kwaphuma umlambo womlilo phambi kwakhe, amawaka amawaka abelungiselela kuye, neshumi lamawaka eliphindwe ngeshumi lamawaka emi phambi kwakhe; umgwebo wenziwa, zavulwa iincwadi. (Funda uDaniyeli 7:9-10.)

Ngomhla wama-22 kuOktobha, 1844, uThixo uBawo wayesele ehleli, iitrone zabadala zalungiswa, kwaza kwaqalisa uMgwebo. Ahlala namadoda amakhulu (ngenxa yomgwebo wabafileyo) kwaza kwavulwa iincwadi. Kodwa uYesu ngokwakhe wayengekabi yinxalenye yesi siganeko. Ukubonakala kwakhe kuya kuza kwindinyana elandelayo.

Ndabona emibonweni yasebusuku, nanko onjengoNyana woMntu esiza, namafu ezulu, weza kuNyangelemihla, amsondeza phambi kwakhe. Kwaye wanikwa igunya, nobuhandiba, nobukumkaniukuze zonke iintlanga, nezizwe, neelwimi, zimbuse; igunya lakhe ligunya elingunaphakade, elingayi kudlula, nobukumkani bakhe bungayi konakaliswa. ( Daniyeli 7:13-14 )

Ukuze siqonde ngcono ngokuthe ngqo ukuba uYesu wabonakala nini kwanokuba kwenzeka ntoni na ngenxa yoko, kufuneka, njengesiqhelo, sifundisise uDaniyeli kunye neSityhilelo kunye. Lo mboniso mnye ngenene ufumaneka nakwisiTyhilelo 4 kunye nese-5. KwisiTyhilelo 4, sifumana inkcazo yenkundla kunye noYise kwitrone yakhe. Ucango oluvuliweyo kwindinyana 1 lumnyango weYona Ngcwele kaOktobha 22, 1844. Kodwa uYesu ungena kwindawo kuphela njengoko kuboniswe kwiSahluko 5 ngombuzo omkhulu wokuba ngubani ofanele ukuvula incwadi ngamatywina asixhenxe. Xa uYesu efumana incwadi esandleni sikaYise, abadala abangama-24 bathandaza kuye baze bazise isizathu sokuba bonke ubukhosi, uzuko nobukumkani bunikwe iMvana:

Bavuma ingoma entsha, besithi, Ufanele ukuyithabatha incwadi, nokuwavula amatywina ayo; ngokuba wena wenziwa waxhelwa, wasithengela uThixo ngegazi lakho siphuma kuzo zonke izizwe, neelwimi, nabantu, neentlanga; Wasenza ookumkani nababingeleli kuye uThixo wethu; ( ISityhilelo 5:9-10 )

Ukunikezelwa kolawulo, uzuko nobukumkani kwaqala kamsinya nje emva kokuqalisa koMgwebo kwaza kwathabatha ixesha elithile, kwaza emva koko kwaba litywina lokuqala elaqatywa nguYesu ngokwakhe:

Ndabona, xa iMvana yalivulayo elinye lamatywina, ndeva enye kuzo izinto eziphilileyo zone, isithi, ngathi kungesandi sokududuma, Yiza ubone. Ndabona, nalo ihashe elimhlophe; lowo wayehleli phezu kwalo enesaphetha; wanikwa isithsaba, waphuma eseyisa, nokuze eyise. ( ISityhilelo 6:1-2 )

Ama-Adventist amaninzi aye ahlasela isifundo se-Orion, esithi akukho kudlulana kweminyaka emibini phakathi koMgwebo oqala kwiSityhilelo 4 kunye nokuvulwa kwetywina lokuqala kwiSityhilelo 6, kwaye ngoko ke iwotshi ebonisa itywina lokuqala ngo-1846 imele ukuba iphosakele. Okuchaseneyo kunjalo. Kwanombhalo webhayibhile kuDaniyeli nakwisiTyhilelo ugxininisa ukuba umahluko onjalo kwixesha nesigaba senguqu ukhona. Ngeli xesha, inyaniso yoMgwebo eqala kwingcwele yasezulwini yashunyayelwa yodwa, ngaphandle kwenyaniso yeSabatha. UMkhweli weHashe eliMhlophe akazange aphume kwitywina lokuqala de uEllen G. White nomyeni wakhe bamkela iSabatha ekwindla ka-1846 ngokusekwe kwincwadi kaJoseph Bates, eyashicilelwa ngo-Agasti 1846. Kungelo xesha apho ivangeli ecocekileyo yaqala ngokwenene ukukhwela kwakhona. Nabani na okukhanyelayo oku uchasene nenyaniso yeBhayibhile neyembali.

Kwaye ayisiyiyo loo nto kuphela, ukwachasene nombono ongokobuthixo ka-Ellen G. White ngokwakhe, awawufumana ngo-1847, oye wanika ama-Adventist ixesha elide into yokucinga ngayo. Kungumbono “wokuphela kweentsuku ezingama-2300”, apho umahluko wexesha phakathi kokungena kukaYise nokungena koNyana kwingcwele yasezulwini uchazwa ngokuthe ngqo emlonyeni kaThixo:

Ndambona uBawo ephakama etroneni, kwaye enqwelweni evuthayo engena kwingcwele kangcwele ngaphakathi kwekhuselo, wahlala phantsi. Wesuka uYesu etroneni, yesuka naye into eninzi yababewile. Khange ndibone imitha yokukhanya idlula isuka kuYesu isiya kwisihlwele esingakhathaliyo emva kokuba evukile, kwaye bashiywe kubumnyama obugqibeleleyo. Abo bavukayo xa uYesu wesukayo, bagcina amehlo abo ethe ntsho kuYe njengaye wabashiya etroneni, wabakhokela phandle umganyana. [Oku kuphawula ixesha elikhethekileyo ngowe-1844, esiza kubhala ngalo kamva.] Waze Wayiphakamisa ingalo yaKhe yasekunene, saze seva ilizwi laKhe elithandekayo lisithi, “Yima apha; Ndiyemka ndiya kuBawo, ukuze ndibuthabathe ubukumkani; zigcineni zingenasiphako iingubo zenu, ndíze ndibuye okwethutyana emsithweni, ndinamkelele kum ngokwam. Kwandula ke inqwelo yokulwa enamafu, inamavili afana nomlilo odangazelayo, ijikelezwe zizithunywa zezulu, yeza apho uYesu akhoyo. Wangena enqwelweni wathwalwa wasiwa kweyona ndawo ingcwele, apho kwahlala khona uBawo. [Ukungena kukaYesu kweYona Ngcwele ngo-Oktobha 22, 1844.] Apho ndabona uYesu, uMbingeleli oMkhulu, emi phambi koBawo. Emqukumbelweni wengubo yakhe kwakukho inkenteza nerharnate, inkenteza nerharnati. Abo bavuka kunye noYesu baya kuluthumela kuye ukholo lwabo kweyona ndawo ingcwele, baze bathandaze bathi, “Bawo, siphe uMoya wakho.” Emva koko uYesu wayebaphefumlela uMoya oyiNgcwele. Kuloo moya kwakukho ukukhanya, namandla, nothando oluninzi, uvuyo noxolo [inyaniso yeSabatha, eyafika ngo-1846]. {EW 55.1}

Siye sanikela ingxelo malunga noku kwinqaku Iintsuku ezingama-1335. Yaye kanye njengokuba amaYuda ayeshiywe ebumnyameni xa iindaba ezilungileyo zaya kwiiNtlanga, ngoko yonke iNgqobhoko ephambukayo elukholweni kwizigidimi zengelosi yokuqala neyesibini yashiywa ikwintswela-lwazi yokomoya. Lo mbono uhlabela mgama uchaza imeko yabo eyoyikekayo, ekubeni belushiyile ukholo lwabo oludala baze bakugatya ukukhanya okutsha. Ekuvukeni koKudana okukhulu, babeyigatyile imfundiso yengcwele kunye nokukhanya kweSabatha kwisigidimi sengelosi yesithathu:

Ndajika, ndakhangela isihlwele esase sithobe etroneni; babengazi ukuba uYesu wayishiya. USathana wabonakala ehleli etroneni, ezama ukuqhubeka nomsebenzi kaThixo. Ndababona bejonge phezulu etroneni, bethandaza, “Bawo, siphe uMoya wakho.” USathana wayeya kwandula ke aphefumlele phezu kwabo impembelelo engengcwele; kwakukho ukukhanya namandla amaninzi, kodwa kungekho thando lumnandi, uvuyo, noxolo. Injongo kaSathana yayikukubagcina belahlekiswa kwaye bahlehle baze balahlekise abantwana bakaThixo. {EW 56.1}

Abo bayichasayo impembelelo yoMoya oyiNgcwele nokukhanya okutsha phezu kwabo nje bonke ubungqina—o busafuna ukholo—ekugqibeleni baphelela phantsi kwempembelelo yeeNtsomi zikaSathana. Ngumoya wobuxoki, ukuvuswa kobuxoki kunye nokukhanya kobuxoki okuthululelwa phezu kwabo lutshaba lwemiphefumlo, kwaye ekugqibeleni baya konakala.

Ucango lwenceba kwibandla lamaKristu lwaqalisa ukuvalwa ngo-Oktobha 22, 1844. Kuphela ngabo bahlala beqinile phezu kwako nje ukuphoxeka, ababenokuluphumelela uvavanyo olulandelayo—ukwamkelwa okanye ukugatywa inyaniso yeSabatha yomhla wesixhenxe. Ekwindla ka-1846 kwibandla lonke, kuphela ngoovulindlela abali-12 bama-Adventist abakhetha inyaniso yeNgcwele. kwaye inyaniso yeSabatha, kwaye babekulungele ke ukuqala a umjikelo omtsha waMatywina kunye neeCawe njengebandla likaThixo elihlanjululweyo. UThixo wanika amanye amabandla iminyaka emibini ukuba aguquke aze avale umnyango weYona Ngcwele. Wandula ke uSathana wavunyelwa ukuba asebenzise impembelelo engengcwele ngokukhethekileyo kubo, ababengenakuze baphinde bayibone iNyaniso yangoku njengebutho elilungelelanisiweyo.

Kule minyaka mibini yexesha leenguqu, umsitho wokumiselwa kukaYesu wenziwa kweYona Ngcwele ibe ke ngoko umfazi uthwala isithsaba entloko njengomfuziselo kaYesu othweswe isithsaba ngoxa wayembeswe ngoYesu njengeLanga Lobulungisa ebudeni bexesha lobuKristu. Enoba yinyanga, eyalatha kuYesu kwiinkonzo zemisitho, ilanga, elalinguYesu othethelelayo, okanye isithsaba esasifuzisela uMbingeleli Omkhulu wasebukhosini uYesu emva kohlobo lukaMelkitsedeke, isoloko inguYesu ejikeleza ibandla lokwenyaniso likaThixo yaye kwangaxeshanye ibonisa ukukhula kwabo kwinyaniso yangoku. Abo baya kube beyigqibile yonke imifuziselo baya kube befikelele esiphelweni, kwaye uYesu uya kubakhapha kuhambo lwabo oluya kwiOrion Nebula.

Uninzi lwama-Adventist ngelishwa aluhoyanga iisimboli eziguqukayo kwiSityhilelo 12: 1 kutshintsho olusuka kwicawa yobuKristu ukuya kwiCawa yama-Adventist kwaye bakholelwa ukuba ukuqhubela phambili kuphelisa ngomfazi, oko kukuthi, umfazi udlula kude kube sekupheleni. Ukanti umfuziselo uhambela phambili. Umfanekiso oqingqiweyo kaDaniyeli oqala entlokweni yegolide uhle uye esiphelweni sezikumkani xa ilitye elikhulu lawuqhekeza laza lazalisa umhlaba wonke, usixelela isiphelo sebali lobukhosi bukaSathana obuwohlokayo. Ngokufanayo, umfanekiso womfazi okwiSityhilelo 12 uchaza ukwakhiwa kwesakhiwo soBukumkani bukaThixo obungenasiphelo ukususela kwisiseko sabo, kwelinye icala—ukusuka ezantsi ukusa phezulu. Ukanti ibhinqa ngokwalo akangomfuziselo wokugqibela ngolu hlobo. Icawe yeSDA, ekufuneka ivele kwibandla lobuKrestu, imelwe sisithsaba somfazi weSityhilelo 12.

Kodwa eli bandla laliza kuwa kwivangeli enyulu. Ekwindla ngo-1846, kwaqalisa umjikelo omtsha wetywina kunye nebandla, owawubhalwe njengezono zeBandla leSDA ngomnwe kaThixo ngokwaKhe kwiNcwadi yamaTywina aSixhenxe kwiOrion. Ezona ntsilelo zinkulu zebandla, ezazifumene ukukhanya okungapheliyo ngoMoya weSiprofetho-Ellen G. White-kwaphawulwa nguThixo kwisizukulwana sokugqibela se-144,000 ukuba sifunde kwezi mpazamo. U-Ellen G. White wathatha indima yomprofeti ovakalisa ukukhanya okutsha kokuvavanya okumele kubangele ukuhluzwa okulandelayo. Sele kumbono wakhe wokuqala wowe-1844, wabhengeza imvula yamva nexesha lokutywinwa kwe-144,000 kwaye phantse kwiminyaka emithathu kamva, wawufumana umbono wakhe we-Orion, ilizwi likaThixo kunye neSixeko esiNgcwele, esasiza kuhla sisuka apho. Uye wavuma iphupha likaWilliam Miller njengoko wayeqhutywa nguThixo, apho kwaxelwa kwangaphambili ukuba “nguMiller weSibini”, kwaye laphinda laprintwa kwi-Early Writings yeCawa yama-Adventist njengesiprofeto.

Njengoko umyalezo we-Orion ubonakala kwi-2010 kwaye amatye alahlekileyo kaWilliam Miller "afunyenwe kwaye ahlanjululwa" njengoko iphupha likaWilliam Miller laliprofetile, indoda eyayivunyelwe ukufunda iwashi e-Orion kunye noMoya oyiNgcwele, ngoku izichaza njenge "Miller yesiBini" ethenjisiweyo. Ufanele abe “ngumprofeti” oqokelelayo wesizukulwana sokugqibela, kwaye ukusukela ngo-2010 waqala ukufuna ngenkuthalo abantu abaza kuziqonda ezi nyaniso kwaye bazimisele ukubafundisa.

UEllen G. White wayevakalise ucango oluvulekileyo ngolu hlobo: “Amafu amnyama, anzima afika angquzulana. Umoya wahlukana kwaye wabuyela umva; emva koko sinokujonga phezulu indawo evulekile eOrion, laphuma phi na ilizwi likaThixo. ISixeko esiNgcwele siyakuhla ngaloo nto indawo evulekile.” noJohn Scotram wabona ngamehlo akhe omoya kule ndawo ivulekileyo neNkosi yakhe uYesu Kristu ethethelela phambi koYise ngegazi Lakhe. Ngelixa ama-Adventist ayesiya ephelelwa lukholo kwiMfundiso eNgcwele kunye nembono yengcwele yasezulwini, abo bantu baphakamisa iintloko zabo baqala ukuhlanganisana kwaye babona amazulu evulekile kwaye babona emva komkhusane we-Orion Nebula kwaye baqonda ukuba apho uBawo wayeza kuyishiya ngokukhawuleza iNgcwele kwaye uYesu ngokwakhe uya kuthabatha umgwebo wabaphilileyo.

Ukusukela ngentwasahlobo ka-2010, umnyango ovuliweyo wawunikezelwe kwiCawa yeSDA, kodwa bakukhaba ngamandla ukukhanya okutsha njengento eyingozi. U-Ellen G. White naye wayekubonile oku embonweni waza waprofeta:

Makubekho emabandleni imbonakaliso emangalisayo yamandla kaThixo, kodwa ayisayi kushukuma phezu kwabo bangazange bazithobe phambi kweNkosi, baluvule ucango lwentliziyo ngokuvuma izono nenguquko. Ekubonakalisweni kwaloo mandla akhanyisela umhlaba ngobuqaqawuli bukaThixo, baya kubona kuphela into ethile abathi ngobumfama babo bacinge ukuba buyingozi, into eya kuvuselela uloyiko lwabo, kwaye baya kuzixhobela ukumelana nayo. Ngenxa yokuba iNkosi ingasebenzi ngokwezimvo kunye nolindelo lwabo, baya kuwuchasa umsebenzi. Bathi, “Yini na ukuba simazi uMoya kaThixo, ekubeni sineminyaka emininzi sisemsebenzini?”—Ngenxa yokuba bengazange baphendule kwizilumkiso, kwizibongozo zezigidimi zikaThixo, kodwa ngokuzingisileyo bathi, “Ndisisityebi, ndisisityebi, andiswele nto. Italente, amava amade, akayi kwenza abantu imijelo yokukhanya, ngaphandle kokuba bazibeke phantsi kwemisebe eqaqambileyo yeLanga loBulungisa, kwaye babizwe, banyulwe, kwaye balungiswe ngesipho soMoya oyiNgcwele. Xa abantu abaphatha izinto ezingcwele bezithoba phantsi kwesandla esinamandla sikaThixo, iNkosi iya kubaphakamisa. Uya kubenza babe amadoda anengqondo, babe zizityebi ngobabalo loMoya wakhe. Iimpawu zabo zesimilo ezomeleleyo, zokuzingca, ubuntamo-lukhuni babo, ziya kubonwa ekukhanyeni okuqaqamba kuKhanya lwehlabathi. “Ndiya kuza kuwe kamsinya, ndisishenxise isiphatho sesibane sakho endaweni yaso, ukuba akuthanga uguquke.” Ukuba uthe wamquqela uYehova ngentliziyo yakho yonke, uya kumfumana. {RH Disemba 23, 1890, Art. B, isiqe. 18}

UThixo wayefuna kangangethuba elide kangaka ukunika imvula yamva kwintshukumo yesithunywa sezulu sesithathu, esasixhaswe sisithunywa sikaThixo, uEllen G. White, kodwa wathi akufika ekugqibeleni, akukho bani wayekulungele ukuwuqonda lo Myalezo ukuba wawuyintoni na. Isigidimi seOrion sagatywa ngabaninzi sasithi simisela ixesha ngaphandle kokusifundisisa, yaye i<em>Vessel of Time nayo yakhatywa, nangona iphinda ingqina ukuba iCawa yeSDA yayilibandla likaThixo lexesha lokugqibela elalinenyaniso.

Kanye phambi kokuba isikhalo sasezinzulwini zobusuku naphakathi kobusuku besandi ngokwaso, amabandla angamaKristu aye alunyukisiwe izihlandlo ezithathu phambi kokuba ucango lwenceba luqale ukuvalwa ngenxa yawo (1843, entwasahlobo ka-1844, ngo-Oktobha 22, 1844) ngoko ke uThixo wayeya kuphinda aphinde le nkcukacha yophawu xa evala umnyango wobabalo kwiCawa yama-Adventist. Ngenxa yamaxesha achazwe kuDaniel 12, uJohn Scotram nabahlobo bakhe bayala iBandla leSDA ukuba liguquke kwizono ezichongiweyo nguThixo kunye nokuphambuka kwindlela ethe tye phambi kweziganeko ezinkulu zomhla wama-27 kaFebruwari 2012, ngo-Aprili 5, 2012, kunye noMeyi 5, 2012. Izilumkiso zahlekwa ukugculelwa kwaqala apha kwi-DA entloko kunye nentloko ye-DA. Ngelo xesha izinto ezinkulu zazisenzeka kwingcwele yasezulwini, kodwa zazinokubonwa kuphela ngabo bantu uThixo wayebavulele izulu. Ngomhla wama-26/27 kaFebruwari uBawo wayishiya ingcwele waza wahamba iintsuku ezingama-40 emgubasini wenkundla ngoAprili 5/6, ukuze ajongane noMgwebo ochasene naye, owawuya kuthi ekugqibeleni wenze isigqibo ngeNgqungquthela eNkulu nommangaleli uSathana. Apha uYesu wamiselwa ukuba abe nguMgwebi Ophakamileyo wendalo iphela yaye umgwebo wabaphilayo waqala ngoMeyi 5/6, 2012. Sibhale ngako konke oku kungcelele lwamanqaku. Isilumkiso Sokugqibela.

Ezi ziganeko zasezulwini azizange zikhatshwe naso nasiphi na isiganeko esibalulekileyo ekudala silindelwe yiCawa yamaSabatha njengomthetho wangeCawa eUnited States okanye iiFireballs, yaye ngenxa yoku kuphoxeka okubonakalayo, njengoko kwakunjalo ngo-Oktobha 22, 1844, abaninzi bayishiya inkolelo yabo kwiNyaniso Yangoku entsha ngenxa yokuba babengenamehlo okomoya okugqobhoza ikhuselo lengcwele yasezulwini. Noko ke, ucango lwenceba lweCawa yama-Adventist lwaqalisa ukuvaleka, yaye njengoko iicawa zamaProtestanti ezaziphambi kwayo nabantu abangamaYuda bexesha likaYesu, babengayiqondi into yokuba ekugqibeleni isiphatho sesibane sabo sasiya kupheliswa ukuba babengasivumi baze baguquke.

Abanye babevuthululiwe bashiywa endleleni. Abangakhathaliyo nabangakhathaliyo, abangazange bathelele abo babeluxabisa uloyiso nosindiso ngokwaneleyo ukuba bazingise ngokuzingisa nokungcungcuthekiswa kuko, abazange balufumane, yaye bashiywa ebumnyameni, zaza iindawo zabo zazaliswa ngokukhawuleza ngabanye ababambelele enyanisweni baze bangene ezintlwini.— Early Writings, 271 (1858). {LDE 182.1}

Kwaye kwakhona uThixo wabiza ixesha lenguqu apho kwakusenokwenzeka ukuguquka. Ukususela ngoMeyi 5/6, 2012, kwakusele kuqalisile ukugwetywa abaphilayo. Ingabonwa luninzi lweCawa yeSDA, kwaqalisa ukubalwa kokugqibela kwale nkonzo—eyinikwe ngokutyebileyo nguThixo. UMoya oyiNgcwele, nangona kunjalo, waqala ukuhlehla kwaye ezona ngxaki zimbi kakhulu zabonakala ukusuka kweli nqanaba ecaweni. Ngokomzekelo, umba wokumiselwa kwamabhinqa wabangela ukuqhekeka kwecawa ukanti akukho namnye wakwaziyo ukubona ukuba ukuphela kweCawa yeSDA elungelelanisiweyo kwacaca ngo-2012 kanye njengokuba uMzimba Wexesha wabonisayo.

Kodwa xa kanye umnyango wenceba kwiCawa yama-Adventist wawuya kuqalisa ukuvala ngonaphakade? Yaye sisiphi isiganeko esasiza kungenisa ukuvalwa kocango lwakhe lobabalo? KwanoJohn Scotram nabahlobo bakhe bajongana nale mibuzo. Ukumisela ixesha, kufuneka sembe nzulu....

Iinkwenkwezi kwiSithsaba soMfazi

Isithsaba somfazi asifaneli nje kuphela isithsaba sikaYesu, kodwa neso sithsaba sifunyanwa ngabo bonke abaya kwamkela baze baphile iinyaniso zangoku ezintsha ezaziya kutyhilwa ebudeni bexesha lokuvavanywa ukususela ngo-1844 ukuya phambili. Esinye isithsaba sinikwa abathembekileyo bebandla laseSmirna, abaya kuthi ekugqibeleni bafe ngexesha lokuphindwa kweTywina leSihlanu njengomfeli-nkolo, ukwenza inani labo elipheleleyo.

Musa ukoyika nabunye ubunzima oza kubuva. Yabona, uMtyholi uza kuyiphosa inxenye yenu entolongweni, ukuze nilingwe; niya kuba nembandezelo imihla elishumi; thembeka kude kuse ekufeni, ndikunike isithsaba sobomi. ( ISityhilelo 2:10 )

Xa yalivulayo elesihlanu itywina, ndabona phantsi kwesibingelelo imiphefumlo yababebulewe ngenxa yelizwi likaThixo, nangenxa yobungqina ababenabo: Badanduluka ngezwi elikhulu, besithi, Koda kube nini na, Nkosi engcwele, oyinyaniso, ungaligwebi, ungaliphindezeleli igazi lethu kwabo bemiyo phezu komhlaba? Banikwa bonke ngabanye iingubo ezinde ezimhlophe; kwathiwa kubo, basaya kuphumla ixesha elincinane. bade bazaliseke nabakhonzi babo, nabazalwana babo, abaza kubulawa kwanjengabo, bazaliseke. ( ISityhilelo 6:9-11 )

Isithsaba sesibini kwisiTyhilelo esinikwe ibandla laseFiladelfiya, simele i-144,000 abaye baqonda iLizwi likaThixo kunye nomyalezo wexesha kwaye abayi kubona kufa. Baya kusindiswa kwilixa lokuhendwa, eli lixesha leZibetho, kuba bangabangcwele abanomonde abangayi kulikhanyela igama likaYesu ngexesha lovavanyo olukhulu lwemithetho yeCawa.

Ngokuba waligcina ilizwi lomonde wam, nam ndiya kukugcina, ndikusindise kwilixa lokulingwa, eliza kuza phezu kwehlabathi lonke, ukulinga abo bemiyo phezu kwehlabathi. Yabona, ndiyeza kamsinya; kubambe oko unako, ukuze kungabikho mntu ukuthabathayo isithsaba sakho. ( ISityhilelo 3:10-11 )

Aba ngamangqina athembekileyo kaThixo, izidalwa eziya kungqina ubulungisa bukaThixo ekupheleni kwenyanga UMgwebo omkhulu. Isithsaba sesabo. Inxalenye yabo iya kufa, kwaye sijonga emva kunye nabo ekugwetyweni kwabafileyo. Enye inxalenye ayisayi kungcamla kufa, kwaye sijonge phambili kunye nabo ekugwetyweni kwabaphilayo size ngaloo ndlela sifumane ubomi obungunaphakade.

Kwisangqa esikhulu seetrone ezingama-24 ezijikeleze itrone kaThixo enkundleni ( ISityhilelo 4:4 ), iitrone ezili-12 ngokomfuziselo zazigcinelwe oovulindlela beCawa yama-Adventist, yaye zazimiwe iminyaka eli-168 ngexesha lomgwebo wabafileyo. Kodwa ngubani ohleli kwisemi-sangqa yesibini?

Umfuziselo wesithsaba somfazi kwiSityhilelo 12 nawo awusosiphelo. Enye inkcukacha isakhankanywa kuthi:

Kwabonakala umqondiso omkhulu emazulwini; inkazana ethiwe wambu ngelanga, inyanga ingaphantsi kweenyawo zakhe, enesithsaba entloko kwiinkwenkwezi ezilishumi elinambini: ( ISityhilelo 12:1 )

Uluntu lwentshukumo yengelosi yesine phantsi kolwalathiso lukaJohn Scotram, olucetyisiweyo ngoMeyi 5/6, 2012, iSidlo seNkosi sesibini, xa amadoda nabafazi abali-12 ngokomfuziselo bahlala phantsi kwisiqingatha sesibini sesangqa sijikeleze isihlalo sokugweba sikaThixo. Emva kweminyaka engaphezu kwemibini yokufuna ngaphakathi kwe-17 lezigidi zamalungu e-Global SDA Church elungelelanisiweyo, uJohn Scotram ukwazile ukufumana kuphela abantu abali-12 ababezinikele ngokuthobekileyo eNkosini ukuba bamkele ukukhanya kwengelosi yesine noMoya oyiNgcwele kwimvula yamva. Kwakhona kwakukho abali-12 kuphela ababeza kuthabatha inyathelo elilandelayo kwicebo likaThixo losindiso, njengoko kwakunjalo ngaphambili ngabapostile noovulindlela beAdvent. Njengoko uEllen G. White waprofetayo, abazange benze mbutho omtsha okanye bahlukane neCawa yama-Adventist, kodwa iCawa yama-Adventist ayizange ivume ukunika uzuko kwiNkosi kwaye ubuncinane ibambe isidlo seNkosi kunye nabazalwana abaye baqaphela iNyaniso yangoku yangoku.

Kulo mfuziselo weenkwenkwezi ezili-12 kwisithsaba somfazi, uThixo ude unike elona nani lichanileyo labantu abafanele babe ziintloko ze-144,000 12, kuba likwalinani lokoqobo, kuba zizizwe ezili-12,000 zoSirayeli wokomoya omtsha, ngasinye siqokelela amalungu ali-12 12 kunye nabo. Baziinkosi, yaye nganye kuzo ifanekisela uphawu lwesinye sezizwe zakwaSirayeli, ekufuneka boyise ngoncedo lukaYesu. Aba bantu bali-3 bajamelana nezona mvavanyo zinzima ngaphambi kokuba uThixo abamisele “abadala” ekugwebeni abaphilayo. Ngabo abakhokela izilumko ezikuDaniyeli XNUMX:XNUMX , ezibengezela njengeenkwenkwezi zesigidimi seOrion.

Ngaloo ndlela, ukugwetywa kwabaphilayo kwaqalisa kungaphawulwa ngabaninzi yaye kwaba luvavanyo olongezelelekileyo kwabo bambalwa ababefanele kungekudala bafumane umsebenzi wokuvakalisa isikhalo esikhulu. Besazi ukuba umgwebo wabaphilayo sele uqalile, ngoku umbuzo wokuphela komgwebo wabafileyo wawumi phambi kwabo. Kuluhlu lwamanqaku kwi Isilumkiso sokugqibela sele sabelane nabafundi ngeembono ezininzi ezivela kumava ethu, kodwa kuthi, okuninzi kwakungekacaci kwaye kuphela ngexesha uMoya oyiNgcwele wasikhokelela ekucaciseni izibhalo. Namhlanje sinokuqonda okucacileyo kweli xesha, nto leyo ekwaphawula ukuqala kokuvalwa kokugqibela kocango lwenceba kwiBandla lama-Adventist.

Uphela Nini Umgwebo Wabafileyo?

Kwasinda ezingqondweni zethu kangangexesha elithile ukuba kufuneka kubekho, njengakwizigaba ezingaphambili, ixesha lokutshintsha ukuya kwisigaba esitsha secebo losindiso, elikwayinyani nakwinguquko ekugwetyweni kwabafileyo ukuya ekugwetyweni kwabaphilayo! Iindidi ezandulelayo zitsho ngokucacileyo. Ke ngoko, bekungafanelekanga ukuba sicinge ukuba iziganeko ezinje ngeNtshukumo Enkulu kunye nomthetho weCawa ziya kwenzeka ekuqaleni komgwebo wabaphilayo. Kodwa obu yayibubuxoki kwaye siza kuyilungisa ngoku kwaye siyicacise ngokupheleleyo.

Nakucazululo lwesiFungo sikaYesu esiya kumadoda amabini kumacala omlambo kuDaniel 12 bekufanele ukuba kucace kuthi ukuba uYesu ubambe izandla zozibini kwisikhundla esiphakamileyo ngaxeshanye. Sasiqonda kakuhle ukuba kwakufuneka ukuba la madoda mabini abe ngabameli bomgwebo wabafileyo nabaphilayo, kwaye siyaqonda nokuba uYesu wayelifihle ixesha lomgwebo wabafileyo emfanekisweni ngokwawo (7 × 2 × 12 = 168 iminyaka), nokuba ixesha lomgwebo wabaphilayo livakaliswe ngendlela ethethiweyo kwisifungo (ixesha, amaxesha nesiqingatha sexesha = kodwa emva kwesiqingatha sexesha leminyaka emibini). UYesu kwakuza kufuneka aqale aphakamise isandla kwindoda enye aze kamva anike enye indoda ekwakufanele ukuba isifungo sakhe sisebenze kuyo. Ukubamba izandla zozibini kwindawo ephakanyisiweyo ngaxeshanye, njengoko umbhalo webhayibhile usitsho, sele kubonisiwe ixesha lotshintsho.

Ngaphezu koko, saba neempazamo ezininzi ekuchanekeni kwewotshi yeOrion, esinokuxolelwa ekubeni nathi singabafundi nje. Yaqala nini kanye kanye iwotshi yeOrion ukucofa okanye kwaqala nini kanye kanye ukugwetywa kwabafi? Impendulo elula yile: Ngo-Oktobha 22, 1844 ekuqaleni koMhla Wocamagushelo.

Ngoku kulandela eminye imibuzo emibini, ebesingekacaci ngayo kuba besisoloko sichanabeke kwintiyo yabachasi bexesha abanenzondelelo yempambano kwizikhundla zama-Adventist abafuna ukusinqanda ngokuphindaphindiweyo ekubhengezeni inqaku elichane kakhulu ngexesha:

1. Uqala nini kanye unyaka kwiwotshi yeOrion?
2. Iphela nini kanye kanye iminyaka eli-168 yewotshi yeOrion?

Kukho omnye umbuzo obangela umdla ngakumbi: “Kwakutheni ukuze uThixo amisele eBhayibhileni iziqalo ezibini zonyaka?” Ukuba sinokuzifumana iimpendulo zale mibuzo mibini kweli nqaku, siya kuyifumana impendulo yalo mbuzo wesithathu.

Kwangoko kwi-Presentation ye-Orion ukususela ekuqaleni kwayo ngo-2010, sabala ukuba umgama phakathi kwabadala ababini, amanqaku aphawula iiyure zewotshi, kufuneka ibe yiminyaka eyi-7 kanye. Ngamanye amazwi: iminyaka eyi-168 eMhlabeni yeMini yoMgwebo eZulwini yaphulwa yaziiyure ezingama-24 zasezulwini ezihambelana nomhlaba ukuya kwizithuba ezingama-24 zeminyaka eyi-7 inye. Bekufanele ukuba siqonde ngoko nangoko ukuba oku kungqamana nesingqi esithile uThixo awasichazela uMoses kwiminyaka engaphezu kwama-3500 eyadlulayo:

Wathetha uYehova kuMoses entabeni yaseSinayi, wathi, Thetha koonyana bakaSirayeli, uthi kubo, Xa nithe nafika kulo ilizwe endininika lona, ​​ilizwe lophumla isabatha kuYehova. Woyihlwayela iminyaka emithandathu intsimi yakho, usithene isidiliya sakho iminyaka emithandathu, uhlanganise isiqhamo saso; ke umnyaka wesixhenxe woba yisabatha yesabatha kulo ilizwe, isabatha kuYehova: uze ungayihlwayeli intsimi yakho, ungasitheni isidiliya sakho; Ummilela wokuvuna kwakho uze ungawuvuni, neediliya zesidiliya sakho esingathenwa uze ungazisiki; unyaka wokuphumla emhlabeni. Isabatha yelizwe yoba kukudla kuni; Wena, nesicaka sakho, nesicakakazi sakho, nomqeshwa wakho, nomphambukeli ophambukele kuwe, nakwiinkomo zakho, nakuzo izilo ezisezweni lakho: lonke ungeniselo lwalo loba kukudla. ( Levitikus 25:1-7 )

Kodwa kubhalwe phi ukuba ukubalwa kwale minyaka yesabatha kufanele kuqale? UThixo uphendula oku kumxholo ofanayo kwiindinyana ezintathu ezilandelayo, ngelixa esazisa ukubalwa kweminyaka yentlokoma:

Uze uzibalele iisabatha ezisixhenxe zeminyaka, iminyaka esixhenxe ibe zizihlandlo ezisixhenxe; imihla yeesabatha ezisixhenxe zeminyaka ibe yiminyaka emashumi mane anesithoba kuwe. usihambise isigodlo sentlokoma; ngolweshumi enyangeni yesixhenxe, ngomhla wokucamagusha novuthela isigodlo ezweni lenu lonke. umnyaka niwungcwalise, umnyaka wamashumi omahlanu, nivakalise inkululeko kulo lonke ilizwe kubemi balo bonke. nibuyele elowo elifeni lakhe, nibuyele elowo emizalwaneni yakhe. ( Levitikus 25:8-10 )

Ukubalwa kweminyaka phakathi komjikelo wesabatha kuya kuqalisa emva kowona mbhiyozo mkhulu wamaYuda ophindaphindwayo minyaka le, uMhla Wocamagushelo!

Kumanqaku oLudwe Lwethunzi, kwelinye icala sasinenyanga ka-Abhibhi njengesiqalo sonyaka wamaYuda. Eneneni iBhayibhile inikela ezi ziqalo zibini zonyaka. Abaninzi ngoku bakholelwa ukuba ezi ziqalo "zenkolo" kunye "noluntu" ngokulandelelana, kodwa oko akumi. Ekubeni yomibini isiqalo sonyaka sinokulandwa emva kwimithetho kaThixo, yomibini “yeyonqulo” ngendalo! Ukubhiyozelwa kweRosh Hashanah—usuku lokuqala lukaTishri kuMthendeleko Wamaxilongo—kwaziswa kamva ngoorabhi yaye kuchazwe njengokuqala koNyaka oMtsha, kodwa akukhona eBhayibhileni. Ukuba uyafuna, ungabiza ukuba "nguNyaka oMtsha wezoPolitiko" kwaye ikwabonwa ngamaYuda namhlanje.

Kodwa ngokwebhayibhile, kukho isiqalo seminyaka emibini...sonyaka womthendeleko, oqala ngePasika ngomhla we-14 wenyanga yokuqala enguAbhibhi entwasahlobo, nonyaka wesabatha osoloko uqalisa ngomhla we-10 kaTishri ngoMhla Wocamagushelo. UThixo sele ebonisile ngoku kuqalisa kweminyaka emibini ukuba kukho iziprofeto ezibini eziphambili ezinxibelelene nesiqalo ngasinye seminyaka emibini, yaye sisekelwe kula manani.

Kusengqiqweni ukwabela iiyure zewotshi yeOrion kwiisabatha ngezizathu ezibini:

1. Umgama phakathi kwabadala yiminyaka eyi-7, engumjikelo wonyaka wesabatha.
2. Iwotshi yeOrion iqala ngoMhla woCamagushelo ngo-Oktobha 22, 1844.

Wonke umgca omnye weSidlo seXesha kunye noluhlu lweeSabatha eziPhakamileyo, kwelinye icala, liquka "iNtwasahlobo / ekwindla" -inhlanganisela yokuzaliseka okuhambelanayo kwexesha leeholide. Ngaloo ndlela, kwiSidlo Sexesha, unyaka uqala ngemithendeleko yasentwasahlobo nakwinyanga enguAbhibhi. Ngoko ke, uThixo ngobulumko bakhe waseka iminyaka emibini eyisiqalo seminyaka engama-3500 eyadlulayo, intsingiselo yesiprofeto eyayingayi kucinywa de kube sekupheleni kwexesha ngesifundo seOrion kunye nokufundwa kweSikhephe seXesha.

Ngewotshi yeOrion safunda imihla esulungekileyo yonyaka, singazi ukuba unyaka uqalisa nini kanye kanye. Kodwa kwakusoloko kukho izinto ezimbini ezinokwenzeka, mhlawumbi ngePasika yasentwasahlobo okanye ngoMhla Wocamagusho ekwindla. Kodwa le nyani yasinda kuthi, kwaye sicingela nje ukuba unyaka uqale ngeminyhadala yasentwasahlobo. Ngoku sazi bhetele yaye siyaqonda ukuba iwotshi yeOrion ilandela umjikelo wesabatha, yaye oku kuneempembelelo ezinkulu zokuchaneka kokuzaliseka kweziprofeto ezithile namaxesha.

Ngoko xa sifunda umhla kwiwotshi ye-Orion, kufuneka siqonde ukuba lo nyaka uqala ekwindla kunye nosuku lwe-Yom Kippur lonyaka ochaphazelekayo kwaye awupheli de kube ngunyaka olandelayo, nge-Yom Kippur. Noko ke, kwiSidlo Sexesha, sifunda iminyaka njengeqalisa entwasahlobo ngenzaliseko yokuqala enokwenzeka yePasika yaza yaqhubeka de kwayiPasika elandelayo. Okubangel’ umdla (kwaye oku mhlawumbi kungumxholo welinye inqaku) Ubulungiseleli bukaYesu “kuMvisiswano weVangeli” kwiNgxelo yethu yeBhayibhile buqala kwiPasika ukusa kwiPasika, kunye neziganeko ezimbalwa ezidweliswe ebudeni beenyanga ezintandathu zokuqala zobulungiseleli bakhe obaqala ekwindla.

Ngaba kunokwenzeka ukuba ubulungiseleli beminyaka emithathu enesiqingatha be-144,000 bubonakalisa uBulungiseleli bukaKristu njengomfuziselo, ukususela kwiNtlawulelo ukusa kwiNtlawulelo ngokulibaziseka kwesiqingatha sonyaka?

Ukususela ekuqaleni kokugwetywa kwabaphilayo ngoMeyi 5/6, 2012, bonke abadala abangama-24 babehleli ngaxeshanye kwizangqa ezibini bejikeleze itrone kaThixo kangangexesha lenguqu elimiselwe nguThixo. Oku kungenxa yokuba umgwebo wabafileyo wawungekagqityezelwa kwaye oovulindlela bomfuziselo bama-Adventist babesahleli kwiindawo zabo kwangaxeshanye uMgwebo wawuqalisile kwabaPhilayo kunye nabadala be-12 ababoniswa njengeenkwenkwezi ze-12 zesithsaba somfazi nazo zithathe izihlalo zabo.

Kuya Kwenzeka Ntoni NgoMhla Wocamagushelo ngo-2012?

Ngoxa abazalwana bethu beSDA babehleka ngenxa yokuphoxeka kwethu okuncinane ngentwasahlobo yowama-2012, thina, njengoovulindlela bamaSabatha, saqhubeka sikhangela inyaniso yaye savuzwa. Saqonda ukuba ngokwewotshi yeOrion, “u-2012” akayi kuqalisa de kube ngokwindla ka-2012 yaye uya kuqhubeka de kube ngokwindla lowama-2013. Kwakhona siyaqonda ukuba ubulungiseleli bethu bufanele bube yimbonakaliso yeminyaka emithathu enesiqingatha yobulungiseleli bukaYesu besemhlabeni, yaye siye sahlolisisa iziganeko zeenyanga ezintandathu zokuqala zikaYesu safumanisa ukuba sasivumelana ngokupheleleyo nobulungiseleli bethu. Zimbalwa izinto ezenzekayo kwisiqingatha sokuqala sobulungiseleli bukaYesu basemhlabeni, kodwa izinto ezenzekayo zingumzekelo obalulekileyo kuthi. Ukuba nabani na ufuna ukuzifundela, unokuhlolisisa i-“Harmony of the Gospels” ekwiAdventist Bible Commentary, uMqulu 5, iphepha 196-201. Abo baya kuba phakathi kwe-144,000 XNUMX kungekudala baya kufunda kuthi oko kuye kwenzeka kwiinyanga ezintandathu ezidlulileyo kunye nathi.

Isiganeko esikhulu esahlokoma ngokwenene kubulungiseleli bukaYesu emhlabeni yayikukuhlanjululwa kwakhe kokuqala kweTempile ngePasika yowama-AD 28. Ngelo xesha, uYesu wabakhuphela ngaphandle bonke abarhwebi etempileni, ababehlaze indlu kaYise. Kwaye ke sihlanganisa ukuba kuya kubakho ukucocwa kwetempile yeCawa ye-SDA, apho abo babona ibandla njengeshishini baya kukhutshelwa ngaphandle. Konke oku kuya kuqalisa ukutshintshwa kwesiqingatha sonyaka, ekubeni ubalo lwethu lonyaka luqala ekwindla ngoMhla Wocamagushelo hayi ngePasika yasentlakohlaza. Okubangel’ umdla kukuba, uninzi ‘lwabadala’ ngoku luseParaguay, apho amaxesha onyaka amelene noMntla weIkhweyitha. UMhla Wocamagusho “nguMthendeleko waseNtwasahlobo” kuthi, njengoko yayinjalo iPasika ngomhla kaYesu eYerusalem.

Xa sijonga kuhlobo lukaYesu lokuhlanjululwa kwetempile, ngoko kufuneka kwenzeke isiganeko esithile esimenza abe nomsindo kangangokuba ekugqibeleni aqalise ukuvala ucango lobabalo lweBandla leSDA, aze agwebe yonke iTempile yeBandla enetyala elilinganayo elilingana nokuxulutywa ngamatye kukaStefano okanye ukwala inyaniso yeSabatha. Inokuba yinto embi kakhulu, apho iCawa yeSDA yatywina ikamva layo. Kufuneka ingqinelane nesono ngakuMoya oyiNgcwele.

Ingaba ngumthetho weCawe? Hayi, kuba asikahlalutyi ngokupheleleyo isimboli "seenkwenkwezi ezili-12 kwisithsaba somfazi". Ngubani ngeli xesha emva koMhla Wocamagushelo ngo-2012 ongumprofeti ovakalisayo kwaye ngubani oqokelelayo? Ukuze sikuqonde oku, kufuneka siqale sikhumbule ukuba kusekho omnye umnyango ovulekileyo, ukanti umnyango wobabalo uya kuvalwa: umnyango ovulekileyo weTyeya ukushiya le planethi kwicala le-Orion, kwaye umnyango wenceba kulo lonke uluntu uvalwa ngokwezifundo zethu kanye emva kokugwetywa kwabaphilayo. UThixo uya kuphinda abhengeze ukuvalwa kwalo mnyango wokugqibela wobabalo ngokubhengeza- kunye nokuqokelela-abaprofeti.

U-Ellen G. White waprofeta ukuba isigidimi sengelosi yesine siya kumanyana nesigidimi sengelosi yesithathu, nokuba oku kuya kuba sisikhalo esikhulu, xa uThixo ebiza kuphuma amabandla aseBhabhiloni abokugqibela kwabathembekileyo. Apha, kuya kubakho iingqokelela ezimbini phakathi kwazo zonke iintlanga zomhlaba... ukuhlanganiswa kwe-144,000 abangayi kukubona kufa, nokuhlanganiswa kwabafeli-nkolo, abangekagqibi inani lamalandela abo. Kanye njengokuba isikhalo sasezinzulwini zobusuku sasingu “mprofeti” owayevakalisa, owayelumkisa ukuba umnyango wobabalo uya kuvalwa kuluntu lobuKristu, isikhalo esikhulu singumprofeti owazisa uluntu lonke.

Kuyo, izigidimi zezithunywa zezulu ezibini zimanyene: isigidimi sengelosi yesithathu, esilumkisa ngokwamkelwa kophawu lwerhamncwa (leCawa) kunye nesigidimi sengelosi yesine, esikwasizisa umbandela wexesha kunye nomqolo oyimfuneko owenza isimilo somlandeli kaKristu. Isigidimi sengelosi yesine sikwabonisa imiphumo eyoyikekayo enokuthi ukusilela nokuba mnye kwabali-144,000 kuzise kuThixo ngokwaKhe nakwindalo iphela.

Yintoni injongo yesikhalo esikhulu? Ukutywinwa kwe-144,000 9, abafeli-nkolo nesihlwele esikhulu! Ngoko, ngubani “umqokeleli umprofeti”? Ngokucacileyo, lowo utywinayo, uMoya oyiNgcwele ngokwaKhe, indoda eneinki kaHezekile XNUMX (funda ngenyameko!). Ngoko ke nabani na osilelayo ukuthobela isikhalo esikhulu uya kuba wone ngokuthe ngqo uMoya oyiNgcwele kwakhona, njengoko kwakunjalo kuzo zonke izigaba zecebo losindiso ngaphambili. Kukwanika umdla ukuba uYesu ngokwakhe wasebenza njengomntu kwinguqulelo yokuqala yamaYuda ukuya kubuKristu kwaye ngoku ngomlingani wakhe okhoyo kuyo yonke indawo, uMoya oyiNgcwele.

Kwaye ngoku umntu kufuneka acinge kwakhona ngononophelo! Kuthetha ntoni ukumanyana kwengelosi yesithathu neyesine ukuvakalisa isikhalo esikhulu? Ucango lwenceba eluntwini luya kuvalwa nini? Luluphi uvavanyo oluphumeza oku kuhluzwa kokugqibela koluntu? Onke ama-Adventist ayazi: Umthetho weCawe, oya kwenza ukugcinwa kweSabatha kube nzima kakhulu! ICawa ye-SDA njengentshukumo yengelosi yesithathu iye yalunyukiswa iminyaka eyi-168 yomthetho weCawa wehlabathi ozayo, oya kuqala-ingakumbi e-US Kodwa akukho mntu unokwamkela uphawu lwerhamncwa okwangoku, kuba lo mthetho kufuneka ube kwindawo ukuze umntu awele ngawo. Ke, sisigaba sokuqala sokuvalwa kocango lobabalo lwehlabathi kwaye hayi ukuvalwa kocango lobabalo lweCawa yeSDA njengoko abaninzi becinga. Bonke abantu baya kuvavanywa ngumthetho weCawe hayi nje amalungu eBandla leSDA. Kufuneka kwenzeke enye into eya kuthi ingenise ukuvalwa kocango lwenceba kwiBandla leSDA kanye phambi kokufika komthetho weCawe—into eyokugqibela neyoyikekayo njengokwamkelwa kweCawa.

Isicatshulwa kuphela sika-Ellen G. White esihlala sisetyenziselwa ukubonisa ukuba umnyango wobabalo uvala iCawa yama-Adventist kumthetho weCawa ngolu hlobo lulandelayo:

Izintlu ezaphukileyo ziya kuzaliswa ngabo bafanekiselwa nguKristu njengongena ngeyure yeshumi elinanye. Baninzi uMoya kaThixo asebenza nabo. Lixesha lemigwebo kaThixo etshabalalisayo ixesha lenceba kubo abangenalo ithuba lokufunda inyaniso. UNdikhoyo uya kubabona ngobubele. Intliziyo yenceba yakhe ichukumisekile, Isandla sakhe sisesolulile ukusindisa; ngoxa umnyango uvaliwe ukuba abo bangangeniyo. Kuya kwamkelwa amanani amakhulu abokuqala ukuva inyaniso kule mihla yokugqibela.— Letter 103, 1903. {LDE 182.2}

Kuyinyani ukuba kwixeshana elincinane lenkathazo phambi kokuvalwa kocango lwenceba eluntwini, ucango lobabalo luya kuvalwa kwiBandla lama-Adventist. Kodwa akukho siseko sesigqibo sokuba ukuvalwa kocango lobabalo kwiBandla lama-Adventist kuya kubangwa ngomthetho weCawe. Ukuba awukwazi nje ukufunda kwesi sicatshulwa nokuba uzama kangakanani na.

Ngokuchaseneyo noko, ukubhengezwa komthetho weCawa ekukudala ulindelwe kukwenza isenzo sokugqibela somdlalo kwaye singenise ukuvalwa kocango lwenceba eluntwini, ekufuneka lonke luphantsi kolu vavanyo, ukuze wonke umntu agqibe ekubeni athabathe ukuma kwakhe noEmanuweli okanye utshaba lwemiphefumlo.

Ukugqiba umfanekiso weenkwenkwezi kwisithsaba somfazi, kufuneka sizibuze umbuzo: sisiphi isiganeko esibi ekugqibeleni esivala umnyango wenceba kuluntu? Kwakhona, sinokubona ukuba yintoni enokwenzeka ngokobungqina boMoya weSiprofetho, kwaye ihambelana nokuxulutywa ngamatye kukaStefano ngamaYuda: ummiselo wokugqibela wokufa wokutshatyalaliswa ngokupheleleyo kwabagcini beSabatha. Okuvuyisayo kukuba, siyazi ukuba esi senzo sokubulawa ngokohlobo lukaEstere siya kubekelwa elinye ixesha malunga nonyaka omnye, ebudeni beZibetho, xa abali-144,000 XNUMX, abanetywina elikhethekileyo likaThixo, beya kutyhubela eli xesha bephila.

Ngoku sisajongene nombuzo wokuba leliphi ityala elibi elenziwa yiCawa yeSDA ngo-Yom Kippur 2012 ukuze iqalise ukuvala ngokusisigxina ucango lwayo lobabalo kwi-Orion Nebula, ivalele ngonaphakade imbono yakhe kwingcwele yasezulwini. Ukuphendula oku, kufuneka siphinde sijonge umbuzo wokuba lunini kanye kanye uSuku lweNtlawulelo ngo-2012....

Unini uMhla woCamagushelo ngo-2012?

Ke ngoku siyaqonda ukuba iminyaka ephawulwe kwiOrion igqithana neminyaka ephawulwe kwiSikhephe seXesha ngesiqingatha sonyaka, kwaye ke ngoko sinokuqonda ngokusengqiqweni ukuba umgwebo wabafileyo, owaqala eOrion ngo-Okthobha wama-22, 1844, awuyi kugqitywa de kube yikwindla ka-2012 ngeYom Kippur. Oku kuya kuba sisiphelo sexesha leminyaka eyi-168, eyaprofetwa nguYesu ngokwakhe kwisifungo sikaDaniyeli 12. Ngokusebenzisa iSikhephe seXesha, siye safumanisa ukuba umgwebo wabaphilayo waqala ngoMeyi 5/6, 2012 ngePasika yesibini enokwenzeka ka-2012, ukuya kwisithuba seentsuku ezingama-1260. Oku kuthungelana kwakhona kubonisa ixesha leenguqu ukusuka komnye umfuziselo womfazi weSityhilelo 12 ukuya komnye. Ukudibana kwesiqingatha sonyaka sezigaba zoMgwebo ngokulandelelanayo lutshintsho ukusuka kwisithsaba ukuya kwiinkwenkwezi ezili-12 kwisithsaba. Ezi nkwenkwezi zili-12 kwisithsaba somfazi azikho umbutho omtsha weSDA, kodwa ziseleyo nje, eziye zafumana ukukhanya okutsha kuqala ngokuva ilizwi likaYesu kwaye ziye zaqonda ngoncedo loMoya oyiNgcwele ukuba zidlulisele kwabanye.

Ngowuphi uMhla woCamagushelo ngo-2012, kufuneka siqale ngayo isiqalo sokuhlanjululwa kwetempile yeSDA? Siyazi kwiVessel yeXesha kunye nekhalenda efunyenwe kwakhona kaThixo kwi Isifundo seGetsemane ukuba kukho imihla emibini enokwenzeka yoMhla Wocamagushelo. Omnye unokuthi irhasi yafunyanwa ngo-2012 kwinyanga yokuqala enokwenzeka kwaye ngaloo ndlela i-27/28 kaSeptemba kufuneka ithathwe njengosuku lokucamagushela. Kodwa sifundile kwisiXhobo seXesha ukuba iiSabatha eziPhakamileyo zikaThixo zibaluleke kakhulu. Kwaye iNtlawulelo yesibini enokwenzeka kulo nyaka ngenene yiSabatha ePhakamileyo. Iya kuba ngo-Oktobha 26/27, 2012, olusuku lwesixhenxe evekini! Ke, kufuneka sijonge isiganeko esiya kwenzeka ngaloo mini kwaye siqatha kangangokuba uThixo uya kuqalisa ukuvala ucango lwenceba kwiBandla leSDA.

Kuya kwenzeka ntoni? Iyintoni iNkosi—esebenza ngeeSabatha eziPhakamileyo—iya kuyenza namhlanje ukuya phambili ukuze igwebe ibandla laYo kumgwebo wabaphilayo? Asazi!

Kodwa siyazi ukuba i-SDA Church ijongene nomothuko omkhulu. Siyazi ukuba intliziyo yakhe sele itshatyalalisiwe ngamahlelo amaninzi kunye nokungenwa ngamaJesuit kubunkokeli. Siyazi ukuba uninzi lwama-Adventist namhlanje lufana nehlabathi njengehlabathi liphela kwaye alusahlukanga kubuKristu bobukholwa okanye “abahedeni”. Kodwa siyazi nokuba uMoya weSiprofetho wathi iyakuhlanjululwa. Nangona kunjalo, oku akutsho ukuba bangaphi abaya kusala emva kokucocwa!

Umyalezo weSikhephe seXesha ubonisa ukuphela kweCawa yeSDA elungelelanisiweyo ngo-2012 nge-triplet ehambelanayo kwiminyaka ye-1861-1863. Ngaloo minyaka, igama lecawa yethu lavotelwa, kwaye umbutho wecawe wadalwa. Kukho into eqale kule minyaka mithathu ephela ngo-2010-2012. U-Ellen G. White wakwenza kwacaca ukuba igama leCawa yeSDA likhethwe nguThixo kwaye liphefumlelwe.

SingamaSeventh-day Adventists. Ngaba sinentloni ngegama lethu? Siphendula sithi, “Hayi, hayi! Akunjalo. Ligama uYehova asinike lona. Ibonisa inyaniso eza kuba luvavanyo lweecawa.”— Letter 110, 1902.2SM 384.1}

Kumalunga “nosuku lweSixhenxe” egameni lebandla, oluya kuba luvavanyo. Abanye babahlobo bam kunye nam kangangexesha elithile sacinga ukuba oku kunokubonisa ukuba iBandla leSDA lalinokuliguqula igama layo phantsi kwengcinezelo yomthetho weCawa, nokuba umbutho wawuya kuphela ukuba babenokuwuthiya elinye igama elalingayi kukhubekisa iicawa zoLungelelwaniso olutsha lweHlabathi. Ukutshintshwa kwegama ukusuka kwi-"Seventh-day Adventist Church" ukuya kwi-"Adventist Church" kuphela kuya kuba kukungcatsha uThixo ngokwakhe onike igama. Kwakhona yayiya kuba kukungcatshwa kweSabatha, umqondiso kaThixo kubantu baKhe!

Xa iBandla lamaSeventh-day Adventist laliza kungcatsha iSabatha egameni labo, ngoko ngokuqinisekileyo ukuqala kwesiphelo kwaba bantu kwakuya kuba kufikile. Kodwa ngaba ngenene iCawa yeSDA kufuneka iguqule igama layo xa umthetho weCawe ufika ukuze uhambelane nonqulo lwangeCawa? Hayi, kwano “hayi” ocacileyo! Kungokuba upopu ngokwakhe kudala ethetha kwiincwadi zawo zeSabatha malunga neSabatha yomhla wesixhenxe, ebhekisa kwiCawa! Kuyo yonke indawo abantu bafundiswa ukuba iCawa lusuku lwesixhenxe evekini. Sele kukho amazwe amaninzi anekhalenda eziqala iveki ngoMvulo. Kulula ukuthi, “Thina maSeventh-day Adventist sibamba umhla wesixhenxe weveki njengosuku olungcwele lokuphumla,” kodwa namhlanje oko akusenakubonwa njengokwaliwa ngokuthe ngqo kweCawa, kuba intsingiselo yeli gama iye yagqwethwa ngokupheleleyo. Nabagcini benyanga beSabatha, abagcina iSabatha nyanga zonke ngosuku olwahlukileyo lweveki bazibiza ngokuba “ngama-Seventh-day Adventists” kuba kwinyanga nganye bagcina usuku lokuphumla rhoqo ngosuku lwesixhenxe. Ke kutheni inkokeli ewexukileyo inokwenza igama litshintshe kuphela ukuze ivuse isigebenga esileleyo, xa sinokwazi ukuma kakuhle negama elidala kwaye singaze sichasane noLungelelwaniso lweHlabathi eNtsha?

Noko ke, ngokutsho kweSitya Sexesha kumele ukuba igama elathiywa nguThixo ngowe-1861-1863 linento yokwenza nalo nokungcoliswa kweSabatha, yaye limele lenziwe ngokufihlakeleyo kangangokuba kwakhona uninzi lwezimvu zeSDA ezileleyo aziboni ukuba uThixo wazo ucaphuke kangangokuba ude awubethe ucango ecaweni yakhe.

Ukungcatshwa koMdali neSabatha Yakhe

Njengoko sibonile zonke ezi zinto, kwathatha kuphela uphando lweGoogle ukufumanisa ukuba yiyiphi ulwaphulo-mthetho lobunkokeli bamaJesuit be-SDAC izicwangciso ze-Oktobha 27, i-2012, ukuze bonke abaxhasayo okanye abaxhasayo oku kungcatshwa kukaThixo bakhokelwe kwintshabalalo engunaphakade. Yaye yandichukumisa ngakumbi intliziyo yam xa ndaqonda ukuba ndandisele ndiyibhalile le nto Inkohlakalo apha ngoMeyi 14, 2010 kwaye walumkisa kwiwebhusayithi yam ngokusondela kwayo kakubi. Ngelo xesha, ndandisele ndithathile oko abaninzi bakubona njengomyalezo ongathandekiyo kwi-arhente yeendaba yaseJamani yeSDA ethi "uMhla wokuDala" ngoku kufuneka ugcinwe njengenxalenye ye-Ecumenical Movement ngoLwesihlanu wokuqala ngoSeptemba. ICawa yaseJamani yeSDA nayo yayikhe yagqabaza ngoku yaza yapapasha kwakwelo nqaku ukuba iCawa yamaSeventh-day Adventist ibhiyozela uSuku lweNdalo ekupheleni kukaOktobha.

Ndandisoyika ukufa, kuba kwakucacile ukuba iSabatha nganye yayisisikhumbuzo sendalo noMdali, ingeyiyo iSabatha nje enye ngonyaka! Ukuhlutha unqulo lweSabatha kwinkumbulo yoMdali kwakuya kuba kukungcoliswa kweSabatha okungenakulinganiswa nanto. Ukubona usuku lokuphumla lweveki nganye njengosuku lokuphumla nje kwendoda njengosuku lwentsapho okanye njengosuku lokuphumla emsebenzini luqheliselo lwamaKatolika. Ngale ndlela, uJohn Paul II wayesele eyichaza kwincwadi yakhe edume kakubi ethi “Dies Domini” ngowe-1998—loo mini ayiseyiyo nje eyokuzukisa uThixo, kodwa yeyabantu kuphela.

Kodwa thina maSeventh-day Adventist kufuneka sazi ngcono. Ngaphandle kokukhuphela amakhulu eengcaphulo zikaEllen G. White ngayo, ndifuna ukuphinda ndikukhumbuze ngombhalo wokuqala womthetho wesine:

Khumbula umhla wesabatha, ukuba uwungcwalise. Wosebenza imihla emithandathu, uwenze wonke umsebenzi wakho; ke wona umhla wesixhenxe uyisabatha kaYehova uThixo wakho. Uze ungenzi namnye umsebenzi ngawo, wena, nonyana wakho, nentombi yakho, nesicaka sakho, nesicakakazi sakho, nezinto zakho ezizitho zine, nowasemzini osemasangweni akho. kuba ngemihla emithandathu uYehova wenza izulu nomhlaba, nolwandle, neento zonke ezikwezo zinto, waphumla ngomhla wesixhenxe. ngako oko uYehova wawusikelela umhla wesabatha, wawungcwalisa. ( Eksodus 20:8-11 )

Kukuphela komyalelo oqala ngobizo lokukhumbula: “Khumbula umhla weSabatha.” Kutheni sifanele siyikhumbule? kuba ngeentsuku ezintandathu uYehova wadala, waza waphumla ngomhla wesixhenxe.

Kwaye kwakutheni ukuze uYehova awusikelele umhla weSabatha waza wawenza ngcwele? Kuba umntu ufuna ikhefu emsebenzini rhoqo emva kweentsuku ezisixhenxe ngewotshi yakhe yebhayoloji? Kuba ootata kufuneka badlale nabantwana babo kanye ngeentsuku ezisixhenxe? Kuba kungenjalo siyagula? Kuba sizakuphambana? Kuba kungenjalo imitshato yethu ibiya kuba sesichengeni? Hayi, lo myalelo kungenxa yokuba uThixo waphumla kumsebenzi wakhe wendalo ngalo mhla. Kufuneka sichithe olu suku noThixo kwaye ngenene sikwinkumbulo epheleleyo yendalo yakhe emangalisayo, kwaye oko, kwiiSabatha ezingama-52 unyaka wonke.

Kodwa nabani na ovakalisa iSabatha ibe nye kuphela njengesikhumbuzo sendalo, wenza ukreqo nxamnye noYehova 51 ezinye iiSabatha zoMdali. Waphula iSabatha izihlandlo ezingama-51 ngonyaka xa kanye bekuya kwanela ukuba netyala lokwaphula yonke imithetho! Ukuba umbutho webandla uphela—ogama lawo esele liqulathe iSabatha ngokuphefumlelwa nguThixo uMdali, nokubaluleka nobungcwele obugqithileyo beSabatha kwaphawulwa ngamakhulu emibono nobungqina boMoya weSiprofetho—unokuba nobuganga bokuhlambela iSabatha ngolu hlobo, ibiya kuba kukuqhwaba okunje ebusweni bukaThixo kangangokuba noYena ebeya kuyiphendula.

“Kulungile,” ndacinga ngoMeyi 2010, “yiManyano yaseMntla Jamani kuphela yeCawa yeSDA, esele iwele ngokupheleleyo kunqulo lwecawa, ephinda ilubhengeza ngokungenazintloni usuku lwendalo. Ngaphezu koko, abazange bathethe nangendalo ISabatha, kodwa yindalo kuphela ngosuku.” Sekunjalo, ndenze ingxelo ephantse ibe yisiprofeto kwinqaku lam:

Basenethuba lokuba uThixo abaxolele, nkqu nelakhe ibandla likaYudas. Kodwa kungekudala umnyango wenceba uya kuvalwa kubo bonke, abakholelwa ukuba uMhla Wokudala nguLwesihlanu wokuqala kuSeptemba baze bagcine iCawa, uphawu lwerhamncwa, baze ke kwakhona bakhale kunye:

Sazilandela nesesithathu isithunywa, sisithi ngezwi elikhulu, Ukuba umntu uthe wanqula irhamncwa nomfanekiselo walo, wamkela uphawu lwalo ebunzini lakhe, nokuba kusesandleni sakhe, lowo uya kuyisela iwayini yomsindo kaThixo, egalelwe indebe yokucaphuka kwakhe, ingaxutywanga; uya kuthuthunjiswa ngomlilo nesulfure, phambi kwezithunywa ezingcwele, naphambi kweMvana: Umsi wokuthuthunjelwa kwabo unyuka use emaphakadeni asemaphakadeni; ( ISityhilelo 14:9-11 )

Emva koko ndakhangela nge-27 ka-Okthobha ka-2012 ndifuna ukwazi ukuba kukho nantoni na ebhengezwa liBandla le-SDA lehlabathi lonke ngaloo mini enokuthi ibhekiselele ekungcatshweni okunzulu kwegama lakhe, kwaye ndayifumana...

Ingazi inkitha yama-Adventist, uSathana uye wakwazi ukubangela ukuba iBandla leSDA lingcatshe igama elilinikwe nguThixo, uthumo lwalo lokuvakalisa isigidimi sengelosi yesithathu, ubizo lwalo noThixo walo, uThixo weSabatha... kwaye konke oku kwanange-SABATHA EPHEZULU, nangaphezu koko, eyeyocamagushelo, yaye ngaphezu koko, ngomhla wokuvalwa kocango lwayo lokuvalwa kocango.

Ngenxa yokuba basikhabayo eso silumkiso, uMoya kaThixo warhoxa kuhlanga olunesono, yaye batshabalala emanzini oMkhukula. Ngexesha lika-Abraham, Yayeka inceba ukucenga kunye nabemi ababenetyala baseSodom, kwaye bonke ngaphandle kukaLote nomfazi wakhe neentombi zakhe ezimbini batsha ngumlilo ovela ezulwini. Ngoko ngemihla kaKristu. UNyana kaThixo wavakalisa oku kumaYuda angakholwayo eso sizukulwana: “Indlu yenu ishiywa nani ize. Mateyu 23:38 . Ekhangele ezantsi kwimihla yokugqibela, kwaeli Gunya Lingenasiphelo linye livakalisa oku, ngokuphathelele abo “bangakwamkelanga ukuyithanda inyaniso, ukuze basindiswe”: “Ngenxa yoko uThixo uya kubathumela ulahlekiso olusebenza ngamandla, ukuze bakholelwe ubuxoki; 2 Tesalonika 2:10-12 . Njengokuba besala iimfundiso zelizwi lakhe, uThixo uyawususa uMoya waKhe abashiyele kwiinkohliso abazithandayo. {GC 430.3–431.1}

Kwaye kwilogo yabo bade babe nobuganga bokucaphula uYohane 1 besithi uYesu uliLizwi likaThixo owadala yonke into, eya kuthi kungekudala itshatyalaliswe ngezibetho-kwakhona ngeLizwi laKhe. Hayi indlela okubuhlungu ngayo konke oku!

Ngaba kwakhona ndingatsho ukuba iBandla leSDA langcatshwa ngubani kwaye yintoni okanye ngubani ngokwenene oxhasa “iSabatha yokuDalwa”?

Ngaba uyazi ngokuqinisekileyo okanye akunjalo? Ngaba ucinga ukuba yi-ecumenism, kuba ndibhale malunga naloo nto kwinqaku lika-2010 malunga noMhla wokuDala? Uze ubone oku inqaku ukususela ngoSeptemba 2, 2007. Kwangaloo mini, uPope Benedict XVI wabhengeza usuku lwehlabathi lonke lokuhlangula indalo, “uSuku Lokulondoloza Indalo”. Thelekisa amazwi ephepha lasekhaya leNkomfa kaWonke-wonke “yeSabatha yeNdalo” kumazwi omkhokeli kaSathana kwelo nqaku “Gcina uMhla weNdalo” kwaye ekugqibeleni uyakuqonda ukuba iNkomfa kaWonke-wonke yenza kanye oko irhamncwa lokuqala leSityhilelo 13 liyalelayo.

Ndikhangele kuyo yonke i-website yeNkomfa kaWonke-wonke yeSabatha yeNdalo ndizama ukufumana inqaku okanye intshumayelo eya kubonisa ukuba iSabatha yafuduswa liBandla lamaRoma ukuya kwiCawe kwaye kungekudala oko kuya kuba luvavanyo lokuthembeka kwethu kuThixo ngemithetho yeCawe: Hayi, akukho nto! Kodwa ndawafumana amanqaku neentshumayelo ezininzi, uninzi lwazo olwalungaquki kwanegama elithi “iSabatha!” Sithetha “ngeSabatha yeNdalo” kodwa iSabatha ngokwayo ayivunywanga. Nceda uthathe ingxaki kwaye uzikhangele!

Ngaba awukaqinisekanga ngokupheleleyo ukuba iNkomfa Jikelele iyanika kuphela Ngaba le Sabatha ibaluleke kangakanani ukuba zonke iiSabatha zibe nazo ngokungqinelana noMthetho weSine kwiEksodus 20? Funda kwakhona kanye oko kubhalwe kwiphepha lokuqala le www.creationssabbath.net:

Ke, kutheni, kwiinkonzo zethu zonqulo, singagxili kuThixo njengoMdali wethu kwaye oku kuthetha ntoni kuthi kubomi bethu bemihla ngemihla?

iSabatha, Oktobha 27, 2012, ebizwa ngokuba yiSabatha yeNdalo, yile:

• “Indlela yokuvuma ukuba uThixo unguMdali wethu nentsingiselo yale mfundiso yeBhayibhile kuthi . . . .
• ukudala imvo yomanyano ehlabathini lonke ekukhuthazeni le nkolelo ngendlela eyakhayo.”

Unokufunda kwiWCC (iBhunga leeNkonzo zeHlabathi) iphepha lewebhu ngomhla wokudala intsingiselo yegama elithi “umanyano lwehlabathi lonke”. Imalunga nokutshintsha kwemozulu, ukufudumala kwehlabathi, kunye nongcoliseko lokusingqongileyo njengomba wawo onke amabandla eecawa. Ikwangulo mxholo uPope Benedict ebesele ewukhankanyile ngowama-2007. Enyanisweni asiyonto yoMdali, kodwa yeyoluntu oluza kutshabalalisa imekobume yakhe. “Usuku Lokulondolozwa Kwendalo” lukapopu, okanye ingxelo yakhe ethi “Indalo” eyisiphumo yeecawa zobuKristu ingumbandela onzulu kwiicawa zaseBhabhiloni, kodwa iCawa yamaSabatha yamaSabatha inokuba nobuganga bokuyihlambela iSabatha ixhasa ummiselo kapopu ngokuqinisekileyo iyawubetha ucango lwenceba.

Ngaba uya kusabela njengomnye "wabahlobo" bama-Adventist bomnye wabalingane bam, abaphendule ngolwazi lomzalwana wam malunga "neSabatha yeNdalo" ezayo kunye neengozi zayo ngolu hlobo lulandelayo?

Molo J.,

Ndiyijongile iprojekthi kwaye andinako ngemizamo yam yokufumana umkhondo wengxaki ngokuthatha iSabatha ethile ukuyila ngokukhethekileyo ukuhlonipha nokudumisa uMdali.

Ngokuchasene noko:

Inyaniso yokuba kwihlabathi laseNtshona amanye ama-Adventist athandabuza kwindalo, kunengqiqo egqibeleleyo ukubeka i-counterweight enokubonelela ubunye kunye nokuqhelaniswa ubuncinane phakathi kwabo bangazinzanga. Apha ibandla lonke libandakanyeka kuyo: ukusuka kubantwana ukuya kubantu abadala. Ngaphaya koko, iBhayibhile isixelela ukuba lo mhla wenzelwe kanye oku (Eks. 20:11). Ngaphaya koko, ugxininiso olubalulekileyo lubekwe apha ngokuchasene neCawa, ukuba kunokuqinisekiswa ukuba umcimbi uya kupapashwa ngakumbi.

Ke eli lityala liyifanele inkxaso kakhulu kwaye kufuneka uye khona!

Ndiyakholwa ukuba uphose inqaku kule.

Ngokuzithoba,

S.

Xa ucinga ukuba umYuda wayenokuxulutywa ngamatye afe ngamaxesha okubhalwa kweBhayibhile xa etheza iinkuni ngeSabatha, uya kwandula ke umzalwana ongenalwazi weSDA akhwankqiswe, oya kuthi mhlawumbi amele inkoliso yama-Adventist athi ngeSabatha axole. NGO-OKTOBHA 27, 2012, I-SABATHA EPHAKAMILEYO YOMhla Wocamagushelo Ephawula UPHELA LWEMINYAKA EYI-168 YOMGWEBO WABAFILEYO.—“ukususela ebantwaneni ukuya kwixhego” kuqukwa—baya kutsiba njengeempumlo ezisuka kumawa okonakala ngokuthi besazi okanye bengazi, bahlaze uMdali, oye wasikelela waza wazingcwalisa zonke iiSabatha njengeSabatha yeNdalo.

Amazwi awawathethayo uThixo kumprofeti uHezekile, eyolula indlu yangaphambili kaThixo, afunyenwe esebenza okokugqibela kwiBandla leSDA namhlanje:

Nyana womntu, yithi kuye, Ulilizwe eli abangahlanjululwanga, abanganeswanga ngomhla wobhavumo. Lucebo lwabaprofeti balo esazulwini salo. Njengengonyama ebharhulayo, eqwenga inyamakazi, badla ixhoba; badle imiphefumlo; bathabatha ubutyebi nezinto ezinqabileyo; bandisile abahlolokazi balo esazulwini sayo. Ababingeleli balo bayawugonyamela umyalelo wam, bazihlambele iingcwele zam; abacaluli phakathi kwengcwele nokuhlambelayo, abacaluli phakathi kwenqambi nokuhlambulukileyo; bayawafihla amehlo abo kwiisabatha zam; ndihlanjelwe phakathi kwabo. Abathetheli balo esazulwini salo banjengeengcuka eziqwenga ixhoba, ukuze baphalaze igazi, batshabalalise imiphefumlo, ukuze bazuze inzuzo embi. Abaprofeti bayo bazityabeke ngodaka oluthambileyo, bebona into ekhohlakeleyo, bebavumisa ngobuxoki, besithi, Itsho iNkosi uYehova ukuthi, xa uYehova engathethanga. Tbacudisa abantu belizwe; baphangi, baxinzelela phantsi usizana nehlwempu, bacudise owasemzini ngokungesesikweni.

Ndafuna kubo indoda engaba luthango phakathi, ime ethutyeni phambi kwam, ikhusele ilizwe elo, ukuze ndingalitshabalalisi; andifumananga nto. Ngoko ke ndithulule ubhavumo lwam phezu kwabo; ndibagqibele ngomlilo wokuphuphuma komsindo wam, ndibanike ngokwendlela yabo entlokweni yaboitsho iNkosi uYehova. ( Hezekile 22:24-31 )

Kutheni singekafiki isohlwayo sikaThixo?

[Isihlomelo, ngoSeptemba 11, 2013]

UThixo unobabalo yaye ulilungisa. UEllen G. White wakha wathi kwintshumayelo yakhe:

“Ubani wayenomkhiwane, utyelwe esidiliyeni sakhe; weza efuna isiqhamo kuwo, akafumana nto. Wathi ke kumsebenzi-sidiliya, Uyabona, ndiminyaka mithathu ndiza ndifuna isiqhamo kulo mkhiwane, ndingafumani nto; wugawule; yini na ukuba uwuqobe umhlaba? Aphendule ke yena wathi kuye, Nkosi, wuyeke nangalo mnyaka, ndide khendimbe ndiwurhaqe, ndigalele umgquba; Ukuba ke uthe wavelisa isiqhamo, wowuyeka; ukuba akunjalo, wowugawula emveni koko. Luka 13:6-9 .

Uhlanga lwamaYuda lwalufanekiselwa njengomthi womkhiwane uThixo awayewutyale esidiliyeni sakhe. Aba bantu wayezithathele kuye njengabakhe. Babebabalwe kakhulu ngeentsikelelo zenyama nezomoya, kwaye wayekhangele kubo ukuba bavelise iziqhamo zobulungisa. Unyaka nonyaka wayesiya kubo enethemba lokufumana isiqhamo, kodwa akasifumana. Kudala enyamezele. UJustice wayebongoze ngelithi, “Ligawule; yini na ukuba uwuqobe umhlaba? Kodwa inceba yacela esinye isilingo. UMlungisi wesidiliya uya kwenza umzamo omnye owongezelelweyo wokusindisa umthi ongenasiqhamo. UNyana kaThixo uya kuza ngobuso ukuba amangalele abanyuliweyo. Uya kuthabathela kuye ubuntu Wamisa phambi kwabo umzekelo wobomi bakhe. Ukuba oku kuyasilela ukubazisa enguqukweni, sisilingo sabo sokugqibela. “Emva koko wowugawula.” Kwintshabalalo eyoyikekayo eyafikela isizwe samaYuda sifunda ngesiphelo somthi ongenasiqhamo.

Phantsi komfuziselo womkhiwane, uKristu umela, kungekhona amaYuda kuphela, kodwa bonke abo baye bakutyeshela ukuphucula izipho zeZulu. Usinike iintsikelelo ezingaphezulu kunezo zanikwa abantu bakhe bamandulo, yaye usibanga isiqhamo esilingana nezipho azinikiweyo. ... {HS 180.2–4}

UThixo akatshintshi. Usoloko eqhubana nabanyuliweyo bakhe ngendlela efanayo. IBandla leSDA ngabantu abanyuliweyo banamhlanje kwaye bekufanele ukuba bayazi ukuba ngomhla wama-27 kuOkthobha 2012, iminyaka emithathu yayidlulile ukusukela ekwindla ka-2009 xa uThixo waqalisa ukugalela imvula yamva phezu kwabantu be-Advent ngendlela yoMyalezo weOrion, iSitya seXesha kunye nesigidimi soBizo Lwethu oluPhezulu, esasiza kuvuthwa isiqhamo. Rhoqo ngonyaka omnye wesithathu esingaphambili seSikhephe seXesha (2010, 2011, 2012) uYesu wayesiza esidiliyeni enethemba lokufumana umkhiwane weBandla lakhe leSDA uvelisa isiqhamo, kodwa kwanangokunjalo. Usuku lwakhe lokuzalwa njengomntu, umhla awazambesa ngawo uluntu, 27 Okthobha, 2012, eyayiyiSabatha ePhakamileyo ngomnyaka wesithathu, akazange afumane siqhamo. Kunoko, kwafuneka ajonge njengoko injongo yolu suku lubekekileyo igqwethwa yaye yenziwa into engekhoyo. “ISabatha yeNdalo” yayithabathel’ indawo usuku olungcwele lukaThixo. Ekuzilahleleni kwakhe, uYesu wabongoza uMoya oyiNgcwele ukuba awugawule loo mthi, kodwa uMthuthuzeli wabathethelela kwakhona abo banxaxhileyo.

Omnye unyaka kufuneka unikelwe eBandleni; elinye ithuba ngaphezulu, elinye uvavanyo ngaphezulu, enye imizamo yokugqibela. Umzekeliso kaYesu usishiya sivulekile isiphelo. Imbali isixelela ngoko uThixo wakwenzayo kumaYuda, yaye oku kuchazwe ngendlela echukumisayo kwisahluko sokuqala sencwadi impikiswano enkulu. UEllen G. White ukwasisebenzisa eso sahluko kwixesha lethu langoku. Ngoko ke isiprofeto esinemiqathango esiya kuba nesiphumo esihambelana nokusabela kobunkokeli beCawa yama-Adventist. Ukuba kukho inguquko, kuya kubakho ubabalo njengoko kwakunjalo ngeNineve. Ukuba iBandla lihleli ezonweni zalo, intshabalalo iya kulandela njengeSodom neGomora.

Nantsi impendulo esemthethweni yeCawa yama-Adventist ekugrunjweni nasekufakweni koMoya oyiNgcwele kunyaka owongezelelweyo wobabalo ophela ngo-Oktobha 27, 2013:

Iza kugqiba njani ngoku iNgonyama yesizwe sakwaYuda?

[Phawula: Kwinqaku Ilizwi likaThixo unokufunda oko kwenzeka ngokwenene ngo-Oktobha 26/27, 2013.]

[Inqaku likaFebruwari 2015: Xa ucango lwenceba yeBandla leSDA lwavalwa ekugqibeleni, luchazwa kwi Call wokugqibela inqaku nakuluhlu Iwile iBhabhiloni. Le theyibhile ingezantsi iqulathe lo mhla. Umgwebo ugqithiselwe phezu kwayo. Ukusukela ngoko, iCawa yeSDA elungelelanisiweyo ilindele isohlwayo sayo.]
