Uphawu Olukhulu

Kwesinye isikhathi, iNkosi igcina imfihlo isikhashana bese iyembula ngesikhathi esifanele ukuze kube nomphumela omkhulu. Iminyaka engu-2700, into encane elingana nesihloko somunwe, yayingcwatshwe othulini eningizimu yeNtaba Yethempeli eJerusalema. Ngo-2009, yatholwa emhlabeni futhi yahlonzwa njengophawu olugxilile obumba (olubizwa ngokuthi i-bulla), lwahlelwa, futhi lwagcinwa ekhabetheni lasenyuvesi. Yalala lapho ebumnyameni eminye iminyaka eminingana ngaphambi kokuba ihlaziywe ngokuseduze, futhi umbhalo waqondwa njengowelinye lamakhosi adumile aseBhayibhelini, iNkosi uHezekiya!

Lapho inani lale ngcebo seliqondwa, ekugcineni limenyezelwa emphakathini ngemva kwamakhulu eminyaka amaningi kangaka engabonakali, ngosuku olukhethekile kakhulu: December 2, 2015.^[1] “Yini eyenza lolu suku lube lukhethekile?” ungase ubuze. Emphakathini ongazi, usuku lwalufana nezinye, kodwa kulowo oqaphelayo Izwi likaNkulunkulu e-Orion, usuku lubaluleke kakhulu. Besingalindele nje isibusiso ngokuvumelana nokusebenzisa kwethu uDaniyeli 12:12 njengoba kuchazwe esihlokweni esandulele, kodwa umjikelezo wezinhlupho ze-Orion uphawula ngalo kanye lolosuku umugqa wesihlalo sobukhosi, okubonisa ukuthi kuyinto ehlobene ngokukhethekile nobuNkulunkulu. Ngizokuchaza lokho kuhlobana kamuva kulesi sihloko.

Uprofesa owenza lokhu kugubha waphawula ukuthi yini eyenza lokhu kutholakale okuphawulekayo emhlabeni wonke: “Kungokokuqala ngqa ukuba uphawu lwenkosi yakwa-Israyeli noma yaseJudiya lubonakale lapho kuvubukulwa kwesayensi yemivubukulo.”^[2] Ngamanye amazwi, lokhu okutholakele kuza nokusekelwa okuqinile kwesayensi ukuze kuqinisekiswe ubuqiniso bakho, njengoba kwaziwa ukuthi isuka ngqo endaweni eseningizimu yeNtaba yeThempeli, eduzane nesakhiwo sobukhosi.

Izimpawu ezivela kuNkulunkulu

Lapho izwi likaNkulunkulu likhuluma, abahlakaniphileyo bayalalela, kunokuba bahlekise njengokungathi kuduma izulu. Njengoba sike saxoxa ngaphambili, ngenkathi izwi Lakhe likhuluma ekuqaleni komjikelezo wezinhlupho, kwaba khona isibonakaliso esikhulu: njengoba ilanga lishona eMexico, kusukela ngeSabatha Eliphakeme likaYom Kippur, 2015, esasiqaphele ukuthi laphawulwa Iwashi likaNkulunkulu e-Orion kusukela ekuqaleni kwale nkonzo,^[3] isiphepho esinamandla kunazo zonke esake sarekhodwa, isiphepho uPatricia, sasongela ukudala umonakalo omkhulu ezakhamuzini zasogwini.^[4] Kodwa naphezu kokufika kwayo okunamandla okubhubhisa, kwakungekho umonakalo wangempela, ngoba isikhathi se engalawulwa ukucekelwa phansi kwakusekuncane esikhathini esizayo.

UNkulunkulu ukhombisa umhlaba Izinyembezi zakhe ku-El Niño, njengoba kuqala ukuxegiswa kwemimoya emine. Okwamanje, umbango usekhona kubanjwe isheke kuze isivuno siyabuthwa phakathi, njengoba kwakuprofethiwe:

Bonke abangenawo umoya weqiniso bazohlangana ngaphansi kobuholi bezinhlangano zikaSathane, kodwa kufanele zigcinwe ngaphansi kokulawula kuze kufike isikhathi sempi enkulu ye-Armagedoni.— The SDA Bible Commentary 7:967 ( 1900 ). {LDE 238.3}^[5]

Izwi likaNkulunkulu laphinda lakhuluma futhi mhla zi-2 kuZibandlela wezi-2015 ngenhlupho yesibili, kwaba nesinye isibonakaliso esikhulu phakathi izintaba zobufakazi lokho kwabonakala ngalolo suku. Ngalesi sikhathi, kwakuwuphawu lokwamukelwa nesibusiso kulabo abaluzwa njengoba uNkulunkulu anikeza iNdodana Yakhe ekubhapathizweni Kwakhe.

Futhi masinyane ekhuphuka ephuma emanzini. wabona izulu livulekile, noMoya ehlela phezu kwakhe njengejuba: Futhi kwavela izwi ezulwini. wathi: Wena uyiNdodana yami ethandekayo, engithokozile ngayo. ( Marku 1:10-11 )

UBaba wanikeza imvume Yakhe ngezwi elivela ezulwini, ngaleso sikhathi, uMoya oNgcwele wehlela phezu Kwakhe. Ubufakazi bukaNkulunkulu bamemezela ukuthi uJesu uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu. Ngokufanayo, uMoya oNgcwele wehla ngo-2010, lapho izwi likaBaba liqala ukuzwakala ezulwini e-Orion, futhi bendawonye, ​​bebelokhu bememezela izimfanelo ezinhle zikaJesu, Olimele. Isibonakaliso esanikezwa kwakuwukwambulwa kophawu oluncane olushiwo ngenhla, ngalo kanye usuku esasilindele ngalo isibusiso. Kungase kungabonakali kukuningi, kodwa kugcwele ukubaluleka, esizokuhlola.

Zisuka nje, kuwuphawu lwenkosi elungile lwegunya! Kunjengokungathi uNkulunkulu uthi, “Lo uyiNdodana yami ethandekayo [njengoba kubonakala ku-Orion], engithokoza ngaye; yizweni.”^[6] I-LastCountdown iyona kuphela inkonzo eyayilinde ngabomvu isibusiso ngalolo suku. Kubo bonke abanye, ukutholakala kophawu kuyinto enhle yokuthola, kodwa abakwazi ukuzwa izwi likaNkulunkulu kulo. Yilabo kuphela abakuqondayo ukubaluleka kwesikhathi abangasibona isibusiso.

Uma okutholakele okufana nalokhu kufika kanye ekupheleni komugqa wesikhathi kaDaniel, futhi kuhambisana nomaka okhiye ewashini le-Orion, singakwazi ukubona ubudlelwano. Futhi njengoba sihlola, sithola eminye imininingwane eminingi ukuze siqhubeke sikufakazela. Ngokwesibonelo, uphawu lwembulwa ngosuku lobukhosi, okubonisa ukuthi luhlobene noNkulunkulu nesihlalo Sakhe segunya. Ngalokhu okutholakele, uNkulunkulu ubezokwenza ukuthi umhlaba wazi ukuthi ubanike indandatho yesandla Sakhe sokunene.

Kubekwe uphawu Ngegunya LikaNkulunkulu

Uphawu lufakazela ubunikazi noma ubunikazi balokho okuvalwe uphawu (isibonelo, incwadi noma isitsha), futhi lusetshenziswa njengophawu lwegunya, njengasencwadini yezimpawu eziyisikhombisa, engavulwa kuphela Nguye owatholakala efanelekile ukuthukulula izimpawu zayo. Akekho omunye owatholwa enegunya elifanele. Uphawu oluphelele luveza izimfanelo ezintathu ezibalulekile ezikhomba igunya elikuso:

1. Igama
2. Isihloko
3. Territory

Isibonelo esivamile sophawu lwebhayibheli oluqukethe lezi zici yilesi, “INkosi (1), uMdali (2) weZulu noMhlaba (3).” Esinye sezibonelo lapho sithola khona ukuvela kwalolu phawu kungomyalo weSabatha ovela emthethweni kaNkulunkulu:

Ngoba ngezinsuku eziyisithupha iNkosi [igama] wenza [isihloko: Umenzi] izulu nomhlaba, nolwandle, nakho konke okukukho [indawo], waphumula ngosuku lwesikhombisa: ngalokho [ngegunya elishiwo] uJehova walubusisa usuku lwesabatha, walungcwelisa. ( Eksodusi 20:11 )

Singaqiniseka ngobuqiniso beSabatha kanye nendawo elisebenza kuyo ngokubhekisela ophawu olunanyathiselwe kulo. (Labo abaphikisana nokusebenza kweSabatha losuku lwesikhombisa kufanele babuze ukuthi yiluphi uphawu lwegunya oluthi noma yiluphi olunye usuku lungcwele, futhi bacabangele ukuthi yiluphi uphawu olunegunya elikhulu.)

Igunya lingase futhi linikezwe izikhonzi zomuntu, njengoba kwenzeka ngo-Adamu:

Futhi uNkulunkulu wathi: Masenze abantu ngomfanekiso wethu, basifuze: futhi mababuse phezu kwezinhlanzi zolwandle, naphezu kwezinyoni zezulu, naphezu kwezinkomo, naphezu kwawo wonke umhlaba, naphezu kwazo zonke izilwanyana ezinwabuzelayo emhlabeni. [indawo enikezwe umuntu]. UNkulunkulu wamdala umuntu ngomfanekiso wakhe, wamdala ngomfanekiso kaNkulunkulu; wabadala owesilisa nowesifazane. (UGenesise 1: 26-27)

UNkulunkulu unikeze igunya kumuntu, ebanika ingxenye yendawo Yakhe siqu ukuba babuse phezu kwayo. Uphawu lwegunya likaNkulunkulu luyavezwa (uNkulunkulu, uMenzi womuntu) futhi ngokomfanekiso uqopha uphawu lomuntu, eveza indawo yakhe, namandla akhe umfanekiso noma umfanekiso kaNkulunkulu (isiqu somuntu). Uphawu lukaNkulunkulu lwagcizelelwa esintwini ngendlela Abadala ngayo: njengombhangqwana ophelele: owesilisa nowesifazane. Ayikho enye inhlanganisela (owesilisa nowesilisa, owesifazane nowesifazane, noma owesifazane nowesilisa ohlanekezelwe indima) enophawu lukaNkulunkulu. Umfanekiso kaNkulunkulu uyacinywa kulezi ezinye inhlanganisela, futhi igunya uNkulunkulu alinike umuntu njengoba emdala, owesilisa nowesifazane, liyashabalala. Akuyona inkulumo enenzondo ukusho kanjalo, kuyiqiniso ngempela.

Futhi [bona] baguqula inkazimulo kaNkulunkulu ongabhubhiyo bayenza umfanekiso wendoda ebhubhayo... Ngenxa yalokho uNkulunkulu wabanikela ekuhuhekeni okuyichilo, ngokuba nabesifazane babo baguqula ukwenza kwemvelo kwaba okuphambene nemvelo: ngokunjalo nabesilisa bayeka ukwenza kwemvelo kowesifazane, basha ngokukhanukelana; amadoda enza okuyichilo namadoda, abemukela kubo imbuyiselo efanele yokuduka kwabo. ( Roma 1:23, 26-27 )

Lapho upapa esho izinto ezinjengokuthi “Ngingubani mina ukuba ngahlulele?” ingabe wena, mfundi othandekayo ongumKatolika, uyakuqonda ukuthi kuphambene nemfundiso yomphostoli uPawulu? Wasexwayisa ngokuthi singavumeli labo abaphila esonweni esisobala ukuba bahlale ebandleni. Ngokwenza lokho, nakuba izoni zizizwa zikhululekile. ibandla lilahlekelwe ukusebenza kwalo futhi alikwazi ukufeza umsebenzi walo. Manje, sifanele sizimele ngaphandle kwanoma iyiphi inhlangano yebandla.

Kodwa manje nginilobele bangahlanganyeli, uma umuntu othiwa ungumzalwane eyisiphingi; noma ohahayo, noma okhonza izithombe, noma isithuki, noma isidakwa, noma umphangi; onjalo lingadli. Ngokuba ngingenzani ukwahlulela nabangaphandle na? [ngaphandle kwesonto]? Anibahluleli yini abangaphakathi na? (1 Korinte 5: 11-12)

Uthando Lokufela

UMdali utshala yonke into enencazelo. Akukho Akwenzayo noma Akuvumelayo okungenanjongo. Usinikeze izingcezu eziningi zendida ukuze zihlangane, futhi kuwumsebenzi wethu njengamakhosi nabapristi, ukusebenza noMoya oNgcwele ukuhlanganisa indida, njengoba isaga sisho:

Kuludumo lukaNkulunkulu ukufihla into, kepha udumo lwamakhosi lungukuphenya indaba. ( IzAga 25:2 )

Ngisho neqiniso lokuthi kwakuwuphawu uNkulunkulu alukhetha njengendlela yokudlulisela isibusiso linokubaluleka okuphawulekayo, ngoba lisikhomba ocingweni lukaNkulunkulu! Encwadini yesiHlabelelo seziHlabelelo (indoda ephiwe ukuhlakanipha ngaphezu kwabo bonke abanye), indaba yothando lukaKristu nabantu baKhe (abamelelwa umShulami othandekayo) iyalandiswa, futhi isikhombisa okuthile okubalulekile ngophawu Lwakhe. Indaba ayihlanganisi nje uMuntu nesithandwa Sakhe kuphela, kodwa kuneqembu labantu ababukele abacula kanye nesikhathi. Ekhuluma ngothandiweyo Wakhe, Uthi,

“Juba lami, wami ongangcolisiwe munye kuphela; uyena yedwa kunina, nguye ozikhethelayo wakhe owamzalayo.” (IsiHlabelelo seziHlabelelo 6:9)

Ichazwa ngokuthi “ikhethelo”, njengamakhiwane amnandi, avuthwa kuqala esivuno samakhiwane^[7] futhi “bengangcolile” njengalabo abafuna uNkulunkulu ngenhliziyo yabo yonke:

“Babusisiwe nina engangcolisiwe endleleni, abahamba emthethweni kaJehova. Babusisiwe abagcina ubufakazi bakhe, nabamfuna ngenhliziyo yonke. Abenzi-bubi futhi, bahamba ezindleleni zakhe. (IHubo 119: 1-3)

Bahlabelela kungathi ingoma entsha phambi kwesihlalo sobukhosi, naphambi kwezidalwa ezine, namalunga; Laba yibo abangangcoliswanga ngabesifazane; ngoba bayizintombi. Yizo lezi lilandele iWundlu loba ngaphi liya khona. Laba bahlengwa phakathi kwabantu, balibo kuNkulunkulu nakulo iWundlu. Emlonyeni wabo akufunyanwanga nkohliso; kabanacala phambi kwesihlalo sobukhosi sikaNkulunkulu. (Isambulo 14: 3-5)

Kodwa engomeni, Ufaka inothi lokungaqiniseki, ethi,

Ngehlela ensimini yamantongomane ukubona izithelo zesigodi, nokubona noma [noma cha] umvini waqhakaza, namapomegranati ahluma. bengingazi, umphefumulo wami wangibeka ezinqoleni ze abantu bami abavumayo. (IsiHlabelelo SeziHlabelelo 6:11, 12, qhathanisa ne-NW.)

Wayengazi noma isithelo sizochuma yini, nokho Wazibeka ngaphansi kokunakekela abantu Bakhe abazimisele. Ingabe izithelo zokholo zaziyotholakala? Ingabe ukhona ongathanda ukulandela isibonelo sikaJesu sothando olungenabugovu? UNkulunkulu wanikela ngeNdodana Yakhe ukuba yenze kwenzeke, futhi Wenza Impilo yakhe uqobo kuncike ekutheni bangatholakala yini. Kuyamangaza yini ukuthi iphimbo lamazwi lihlanganyela, libiza othandiweyo bakaJesu, ukuze bambone?

Buya, buya, Shulami; buya, buya, ukuze sikubuke. Niyakubonani kumShulami na? Njengoba bekuyinkampani ye amabutho amabili. (IsiHlabelelo seziHlabelelo 6:13)

Njengoba ingoma iqhubeka, othandekayo ubonisa uthando lwakhe:^[8]

Ngibeke njengophawu enhliziyweni yakho, njengophawu engalweni yakho uthando lunamandla njengokufa; umhawu unonya njengengcwaba, amalahle awo angamalahle omlilo ovuthayo ilangabi elivutha kakhulu. Amanzi amaningi awanakulucima uthando, nemifula ayinakuyiminza; uma umuntu ebenganikela ngayo yonke impahla yendlu yakhe ngothando, iyakweyiswa nokudelelwa. (IsiHlabelelo seziHlabelelo 8:6-7)

Umfanekiso lowo wezandla zakhe ezinamathela engalweni Yakhe futhi ubuso bakhe bucindezelekile enhliziyweni Yakhe njengalokhu umuntu ecindezela indandatho odakeni. Uthando lwakhe lufana nendandatho, futhi lubonakaliswa luqinile njengokufa, futhi njengomlilo ovuthayo kangangokuthi akukho silinganiso samanzi esingawucima. Ulimi yilolo olusetshenziswa maqondana nolaka lukaNkulunkulu phezu kwababi.^[9] Ngamanye amazwi, uthando lwakhe lunamandla njengokufa kwesibili! Umele abantu Bakhe abazimiseleyo—abazimisele ukunikela ngezimpilo zabo zaphakade ngenxa yothando! Banokholo uJesu alubuza ngobuqotho ukuthi wayeyoluthola yini, azi ukuthi ngisho noYise uqobo wayethembele kulo!

Cabanga nje! USomandla, ephathisa ukuphila Kwakhe, okugoqe ubukhona boMkhathi wonke, “ezinqoleni” zothando lwabantu ababuthaka, abaphambukayo! Uthemba ukuthi uthando Lwakhe olujulile—njengoJesu alubonisa esiphambanweni—luzobonakala kubantu Bakhe besizukulwane sokugcina. Ngempela uNkulunkulu uluthando, futhi lolothando luwumthombo wamanzi okuphila ageleza ngeNdodana yaKhe futhi luqabula labo abakwazisayo lokho uJesu abenzela kona, ngoba lapho becabangela ukujula komhlatshelo waKhe, ngokubanikeza ukukhululwa ebugqilini besono abasizondayo, lolo thando olufanayo luqala ukumila kubo, lubenze bakwazi ukulubuyisela kuBaba njengophawu lokubonga nokudumisa. Balothando ngoba Yena wabathanda kuqala. Bahamba ezindleleni Zakhe ngaphandle kokubheka izindleko noma umvuzo, ngenxa nje yokuthi bamthanda ngaphezu kwanoma yini enye. Umthetho wakhe ulotshiwe ezinhliziyweni zabo. Banokholo lukaJesu futhi bahlabelela ingoma kaMose neWundlu, belandela iNkosi yabo ngokuzithandela ekuphuzeni inhlese. iGrail eNgcwele. Konke kuwukuphuma kothando lukaBaba, futhi lufakwe endandeni Yakhe enophawu.

Ubude Bezinsuku Nokuphila Okude

UHezekiya wayenezimpawu ezimbili ezihlukene azisebenzisa phakathi nokubusa kwakhe, futhi washintsha ngemva kwesenzakalo esibalulekile ekuphileni kwakhe. Kwakungenkathi egula waze wafa, futhi ngesicelo sakhe kuNkulunkulu, wenezelwa isikhathi sokuphila.^[10] Umphumela woPhawu owatholwa ngoDisemba 2 wawungowakamuva ngemuva kokuhlangenwe nakho kwakhe kokuphulukiswa, ngakho-ke uhlanganisa ikakhulukazi leso senzakalo emlayezweni uNkulunkulu awudluliselayo.

Izimpawu ezisesigxivizweni se-Ofeli zisikisela lokho benziwa sekwephuzile empilweni yakhe, lapho kokubili igunya lokuphatha laseNdlunkulu kanye nezimpawu zomuntu siqu zeNkosi zishintsha zisuka kusikalabhu esinamaphiko (ibhungane lobulongwe)—uphawu lwamandla nokubusa eyayivamile kulo lonke elaseMpumalanga Eseduze Yasendulo, kulelo langa elinamaphiko—okuyisizathu wamemezela isivikelo sikaNkulunkulu, okwanikeza umbuso ukuba semthethweni namandla awo, nawo owasabalele kulo lonke elaseMpumalanga Eseduze Yasendulo futhi wawusetshenziswa amaKhosi ase-Asiriya.^[11]

Nakuba kunethonya eliqinisekile laseGibhithe, uHezekiya wayengumlandeli oshisekayo kaJehova futhi engenaye umkhulekeli welanga. Kufanele siqonde imifuziselo njengoba uHezekiya ayengasho ngayo—ngendlela uMalaki akhuluma ngayo ngelanga: “Kepha kinina enesaba igama lami kuyakuphuma iLanga lokulunga, linokuphilisa emaphikweni alo.”^[12] Wayemane esebenzisa uphawu oluvamile noluqondakala kabanzi lwelanga elinamaphiko futhi echaza incazelo yalo kuNkulunkulu wakhe. Kubalulekile ukuqonda lezi zimpawu ngendlela efanele, funa uzihumushe ngokwengqikithi engalungile.

Ilanga alimeleli nje kuphela ilungiselelo likaNkulunkulu, namaphiko abheke phansi, isivikelo Sakhe, njengokungathi sesilungele ukugona nokuvikela, kodwa ngenxa yokuthi uNkulunkulu wanikeza uHezekiya isibonakaliso elangeni sokuthi wayezophulukiswa, kuye, kwakuyomelela kabili isivikelo nokunakekela kukaNkulunkulu!

Ama-ankh ohlangothini ngalunye lwamaphiko ayengolunye uphawu oluvamile lwaseGibhithe olwalumelela ukuphila. Ukuhlotshaniswa kwalawa ma-ankh nelanga elivikelayo kanye nemisebe yalo yesibusiso nokuhlinzeka iphinda ireferensi yokuphulukiswa kwayo.

Indaba yakhe iyindaba yeBhayibheli eyaziwa kakhulu ephindwayo ezincwadini ezintathu zeBhayibheli. UNkulunkulu wadumisa uHezekiya ngophawu olukhulu elangeni—uphawu lokuphila olwaluphawulwe “ewashini” elikhulu—ilanga lika-Ahazi—ngokuyisa isithunzi emuva ngamadigri ayi-10! Bekuwuphawu olukhulu ngendlela engafani uma kuqhathaniswa nomcimbi, okukhombisa ukuthi wawukhomba into enkulu kakhulu! Udumo uNkulunkulu amnika lona lwaphinde lwavivinya ukuziqhenya kwenkosi, nokho, futhi wehluleka uvivinyo ngokunganikezi uNkulunkulu inkazimulo, kodwa ekhomba ezayo impumelelo njengokungathi zazizuzisa. Noma kunjalo, ukuphenduka kwakhe ngokuzidla kulotshiwe emiBhalweni.^[13] Ukushintsha uphawu lwakhe kubonisa ubuqotho bokuphenduka kwakhe ngenxa yokuziqhenya kwakhe, ngoba akabange esazihlanganisa nophawu lwangaphambili, olwanikeza udumo emandleni akhe siqu nobukhosi, kodwa waklama uphawu lwakhe lwakamuva ukuze anikeze inkazimulo kuNkulunkulu, evuma ilungiselelo laKhe nesivikelo kuye futhi ezwakalisa ukubonga ngokuphila. UNkulunkulu akagcinanga nje ngokuhlonipha ukuphenduka kwakhe ngokukhomba kulokhu kutholwa ngewashi laKhe lasezulwini e-Orion, kodwa uhlanganisa isifundo sokuthobeka nokholo esigijimini, ngoba nakuba abayizi-144,000 XNUMX benza umsebenzi omkhulu, nguKristu owenza umsebenzi ngabo, bona ngokwabo, abanakwenza lutho.

Iwashi le-Orion aligcini nje ngokukhomba i-bulla kusukela ngesikhathi, kodwa ngisho nezimpawu ezisocingweni ngokwazo zihlobene ngokuseduze nalo mlayezo! Ewashini le-Orion, izinkanyezi ezingaphandle zimelelwa emiBhalweni ngamaserafi anamaphiko ayisithupha; amabili amboze ubuso, amabili amboze izinyawo; namaphiko amabili ukuze andize!^[14] Ngakho, i- motif ihlanganisa amaphiko aweluliwe amaserafi namalanga ase-Orion, amaserafi amelelwa ngokoqobo, futhi ehlangene, akha isibonakaliso esiphinda ukubaluleka kwesikhathi njengesikhombi salesi sigijimi!

Kodwa ama-ankh aphinde abhekisele kulo mlayezo, ngoba awuphawu lokuphila, futhi ezweni lethu lanamuhla, uphawu lwemvelo oludumile lokuphila yi-DNA. Esivame ukukubiza ngokuthi “umlayezo we-Orion,” akubandakanyi nje amawashi e-Orion kuphela, kodwa noHlu LweSabatha Oluphakeme, olubuye lwaziwe ngokuthi Umkhumbi Wesikhathi, enezifaniso eziningi ubudlelwano ne-DNA!^[15]

Iqoshwe Njengesiginali

Indandatho kaNkulunkulu enophawu ayifani nezinye, kodwa inezinjongo ezifanayo nezinhlobonhlobo ezingokoqobo. Ngomqondo ongokomfanekiso, iBhayibheli lichaza indlela lolu phawu olukhethekile oluklanywe ngayo. Njengoba uMose wanikwa iziqondiso mayelana nezingubo zompristi, wayala kathathu ukuba aqophe “njengokuqoshwa kophawu.”^[16] Ulimi lubalulekile. UNkulunkulu akawasebenzisi amazwi angenayo injongo noma inhloso. Wayengachaza ukujula kwemibhalo eqoshiwe, isibonelo, kodwa Wakhetha ukuyihlanganisa ngophawu. Ukuze umbhalo oqoshwe esigxivini ufundeke ocingweni, kuyadingeka ukuba uqoshwe ngokujulile. Ukunwaya nje indawo engaphezulu, kuyilapho bekubonakala kuyindandatho yesiginesha ngokwayo, bekungeke kwanele ukudlulisela ubumba olucindezelwa kulo. Ngokuhlobanisa ukuqoshwa kompristi nalokho kophawu, umBhalo ukhomba kokuthile okukhulu—inani likaNkulunkulu ngokwakhe.

Ngohlelo lwengubo yamahlombe yompristi, kwakukhona amatshe ayigugu ayishumi nambili esihlangwini sesifuba, aqoshwe amagama abantwana bakwa-Israyeli, igama linye etsheni. Eduze kwenhliziyo, abantwana bakaNkulunkulu ngamunye bamelwe ngokwesizwe sabo. Nokho, emahlombe abapristi, amagama abantwana bakwaIsrayeli aphinde aqoshwa ematsheni amabili ayigugu, kulokhu kuphela, emelelwe ngokuhlanganyela, anamagama ayisithupha aqoshwe kwelinye lamatshe amabili ehlombe. Ngokubeka abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ngokomfanekiso emahlombe Akhe, uyasibonisa ukuthi nguye osisekelayo futhi ungamandla ethu ngesikhathi sosizi.

Ukwehlukanisa izizwe eziyishumi nambili zibe amaqoqo amabili ayisithupha akuvamile, kodwa sibona iphethini efanayo esinkwa sombukiso esasihlala sikhona endlini engcwele. Kwakukhona izinkwa eziyishumi nambili zesinkwa esingenamvubelo ezitakini ezimbili eziyisithupha ezazibekwe etafuleni ukuze zibukiswe phambi kukaNkulunkulu njalo, zivuselelwa masonto onke. Isinkwa simelela umzimba kaKristu—ibandla—kodwa ikakhulukazi leso sizukulwane sokugcina, esifeza injongo yebandla njengoba uPawulu asho:

Futhi wanika abanye ukuthi babe ngabaphostoli; labanye abaprofethi; labanye, abavangeli; labanye bangabelusi labafundisi; Ukuze abangcwele bapheleliswe, umsebenzi wokukhonza, ukwakhiwa komzimba kaKristu; Till sonke siza ebunyeni bokukholwa, lobolwazi lweNdodana kaNkulunkulu, kumuntu opheleleyo, ku isilinganiso sobukhulu bokugcwala kukaKristu; (Kwabase-Efesu 4: 11-13)

Isinkwa sasibekwe phambi kukaNkulunkulu njengesikhumbuzo umphumela wokugcina wensindiso-Leso sizukulwane esinobunye bokukholwa kanye nokuphothulwa kokukhula nokuvuthwa komuntu kulokho okugcwalisa uKristu, okungukuthi, ukufana noKristu, ikakhulukazi uthando lwakhe lokuzidela. Amatshe ehlombe ku-efodi amelela isizukulwane sokugcina futhi, ephakanyiswa esonweni nguKristu futhi abekwe obala njengezithelo zokuqala zensindiso. Isisindo sesono somhlaba sasiphezu kwamahlombe kaKristu, umPristi wethu oMkhulu, futhi isisindo salomthwalo wethulwa ngalabo bantu abaphakamisiwe, uxhunywe phakathi kwamahlombe aKhe nomthwalo. Okwabo akusiyo indima yamandla, ngoba akukho lutho abaluphakamisayo ngaphandle kukaKristu, kodwa babona ngokwabo lokho Angakwenza, futhi lokhu yingxenye edingekayo yesu. Bafakazela ukusebenza kahle kwensindiso kaKristu futhi babusa kanye Naye. Cabanga ngenkathi u-Israyeli enikezwa igama lakhe, emelela ukunqoba kwakhe ngokubiza amandla kaNkulunkulu ngokholo:

Wathi: "Igama lakho alisayikuthiwa uJakobe, kepha u-Israyeli." njengenkosana unamandla noNkulunkulu kanye nabantu, futhi unqobile [nqoba]. (UGenesise 32: 28)

Kulowo onqobayo ngiyakuvuma ukuhlala nami esihlalweni sami sobukhosi, njengalokhu nami nganqoba, ngase ngihlezi noBaba esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi. ( IsAmbulo 3:21 )

Isizukulwane sokugcina sika-Israyeli ongokomoya sinezici ezifanayo. Bangabanqobi—izithelo zokuqala zensindiso, abavumele igazi likaKristu ukuba libahlanze esonweni ngesikhathi besemhlabeni. Baqinisekisa icebo lensindiso ngokufakazela ukuthi liyasebenza. Kuwumkhuba ojwayelekile embonini yokuhlaziya. Lapho iqoqo lamasampula lihlaziywa, amanye amasampula amaningana alungisiwe, abizwa ngokuthi amasheke, kufanele ahlaziywe nawo. Uma benikeza imiphumela elindelekile, khona-ke uyazi ukuthi ungayethemba imiphumela yamasampula angaziwa. Ngaphandle kwabo, noma kunjalo, awunabo ubufakazi bokuthi ukuhlaziywa kwamasampula angaziwa kwakuvumelekile, futhi imiphumela ayinakuthenjwa. Abayi-144,000 bayisheke elidingekayo lensindiso etholwa isixuku esikhulu “sezibonelo ezingaziwa” ekuvukeni kwabo, empeleni kufeza injongo yayo—ukukhululwa okuphelele komuntu esonweni.

Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Wonke owenza isono uyisigqila sesono. ( Johane 8:34 )

Lezi [abangu-144,000] bahlengwa phakathi kwabantu; nilulibo kuNkulunkulu nakulo iWundlu. Emlonyeni wabo akufunyanwanga nkohliso; abanaphutha phambi kwesihlalo sobukhosi sikaNkulunkulu. ( IsAmbulo 14:4-5 )

Isambatho sesithathu sesambatho sompristi esasiqoshwe njengophawu, kwakuyingcwecwe yegolide eyayinanyathiselwe esigqokweni, eyayinombhalo othi, “Ubungcwele eNkosini.” Lokhu kuyasebenza nakulabo abayizi-144,000 ngoba bangcweliswe ngokuphelele kuNkulunkulu. Ngokuthembela okuphelele, bafisa ukulandela amazwi Akhe onke, bangaphambuki ngapha nangapha, futhi bahlanganyela nomhubi, bethi:

Ngikufunile ngenhliziyo yami yonke: O mangingaduki emiyalweni yakho. Enhliziyweni yami ngilifihlile izwi lakho; ukuze ngingoni kuwe. (IHubo 119: 10-11)

Umthetho kaNkulunkulu uyisisekelo sombuso Wakhe. Lokhu kumelelwa endaweni engcwele ngesikhundla saso ngokuqondile ngaphansi kwesihlalo Sakhe sobukhosi—isihlalo somusa. Kulalelwa emhlabeni wonke kuzo zonke izifunda zombuso Wakhe, futhi iwona kanye lowo mthetho, oyindikimba eyinhloko yokungqubuzana okukhulu phakathi kukahulumeni kaNkulunkulu kanye nokaSathane. Umbuso kadeveli uqukethe labo abakhetha ukungawunaki lowo mthetho. Noma bethi bayayithanda iNkosi, abayithandi imvelo Yakhe, futhi abahloniphi igunya lophawu Lwakhe, olutholakala emthethweni njengoba sibonile ngaphambili. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, abantu bakaNkulunkulu bayawuthanda uhulumeni waKhe futhi umthetho waKhe ulotshwe ezinhliziyweni nasezingqondweni zabo. Lawa mazwi aveza imizwa yomuntu owazi futhi othanda iNkosi:

Ngiyakuzonda futhi ngiyawenyanya amanga: kodwa umthetho wakho ngiyawuthanda... Ukuthula okukhulu banakho thanda umthetho wakho. futhi akukho lutho oluyobakhubekisa. Ngiyethemba insindiso yakho, ngenza imiyalo yakho. Umphefumulo wami uyagcina ubufakazi bakho; futhi Ngibathanda ngokwedlulele. ( IHubo 119:163, 165-167 )

Kodwa lesi kuzakuba yisivumelwano engizasenza lendlu kaIsrayeli; Emva kwalezo zinsuku, kusho uJehova. Ngiyakufaka umthetho wami ezibilinini zabo, ngiwulobe ezinhliziyweni zabo; ngibe nguNkulunkulu wabo, bona babe ngabantu bami. Abasayikufundisa, kube yilowo nalowo umakhelwane wakhe, kube yilowo nalowo umfowabo, ngokuthi: 'Yazini uJehova!' bonke bazongazi, kusukela komncane wabo kuze kufike komkhulu wabo,” usho uJehova, “ngokuba ngiyakuthethelela ububi babo, ngingabe ngisasikhumbula isono sabo. ( Jeremiya 31:33-34 )

Ngakho-ke, ukuqoshwa “kobungcwele beNkosi” ebunzini kumelela wonke umbuso kaNkulunkulu—indawo lapho umthetho Wakhe waziswa futhi ulalelwa khona.

Uyakuqonda ukuthi lezi zinto zisho ukuthini? Indandatho kaNkulunkulu, njengoba ivezwa emiqondweni, ichaza abantu Bakhe—Isizukulwane sakhe sokugcina! Bayithempeli Lakhe eliphilayo, uNkulunkulu ahlala kulo, futhi okunikezwe ngaye isitembu Sakhe sokuvunyelwa negunya! Lelothempeli lakhiwa ngosuku olukhulu lweNkosi, lapho isimo sikaNkulunkulu, njengoba sivezwe ngophawu Lwakhe, ekugcineni sesithuthuke ngokugcwele kuleso sizukulwane sabantu Bakhe!

Usuku lweNkosi

EBhayibhelini, lapho uZerubabele, umbusi wakwaJuda, engamele ukubekwa kwesisekelo sethempeli elisha, uNkulunkulu wathi:

ngiyakuzamazamisa izulu nomhlaba; Ngizadiliza isihlalo sobukhosi semibuso, ngiyakuchitha amandla emibuso yezizwe; ngiyakugumbuqela izinqola nabagibele kuzo; amahhashi nabagibeli bawo bayakwehla; kube yilowo nalowo ngenkemba yomfowabo. Ngalolo suku,” usho uJehova Sebawoti, “ngiyakuthatha, Zerubabele, nceku yami, ndodana kaSheyalitiyeli,” usho uJehova. futhi ngizokwenza njengesiginesha: ngoba ngikukhethile. usho uJehova Sebawoti. (Hagayi 2:21-23)

Kunokusebenza okucacile ezinsukwini zokugcina kulesi siqephu; akukhona nje ukubhekisela esikhathini sokufika kukaJesu kokuqala. Ukugcwaliseka kwezwi nezwi kuhlotshaniswa ngokuqondile nesikhathi solaka lukaNkulunkulu—isikhathi esiphila kuso kusukela ngo-October 25, 2015!

Bheka, usuku lukaJehova luyeza, lunonya zombili ngolaka nangentukuthelo evuthayo; ukwenza izwe libe yincithakalo: futhi uyakubhubhisa izoni kuwo. Ngoba izinkanyezi zezulu kanye imilaza yalo [Okuqinile: Orion] Ilanga liyakuba mnyama ekuphumeni kwalo, nenyanga ayiyikukhanyisa ukukhanya kwayo. Futhi ngizojezisa izwe ngobubi balo, nababi ngobubi babo; ngiyakwenza ukuba kuphele ukuzidla kwabaziqhenyayo, ngehlise ukuzidla kwabasabekayo... ngiyakuzamazamisa amazulu, nomhlaba uyanyakaza usuke endaweni yawo; olakeni lukaJehova Sebawoti nangosuku lwentukuthelo yakhe evuthayo. ( Isaya 13:9-11, 13 )

Qaphela ukuthi usuku (unyaka) weNkosi^[17] yisikhathi lapho uNkulunkulu athi i-Orion yayiyoyeka ukunikeza ukukhanya kwayo. Emzimbeni, inani lokukhanya elivela ku-Orion, noma zonke izinkanyezi zihlangene, lincane kakhulu, ngakho-ke kufanele likhulume ngokomoya. Kusukela e-Orion, umhlaba ube khona akhanyiswe ngenkazimulo yaKhe, kodwa abakhileyo kuleli zwe bakwalile ukukhanya. Ngakho, Ubashiyile ukuba bazulazule ebumnyameni.

Ukulahlwa yilokhu, ukuthi ukukhanya kufikile ezweni, kepha abantu bathanda ubumnyama kunokukhanya, ngokuba imisebenzi yabo yayimibi. Ngoba yilowo nalowo owenza okubi uzonda ukukhanya. futhi akezi ekukhanyeni, ukuze imisebenzi yakhe ingasolwa. Kodwa owenza iqiniso uyeza ekukhanyeni. ukuze imisebenzi yakhe ibonakaliswe, ukuthi yenziwe kuNkulunkulu. ( Johane 3:19-21 )

Lapho ukukhanya kufika, kwakuwukuletha ukuqiniseka ezinhliziyweni zabantu bakaNkulunkulu nokubalungiselela ukubuya Kwakhe. Kodwa bambalwa kangakanani abaye balisebenzisa ngokunenzuzo lelo thuba?! Manje ukukhanya kukaMoya oNgcwele kugodliwe kulabo abamalayo. Kufanekiselwa ukufiphala kwelanga phakathi kwesiprofetho igazi inyanga tetrad, ngisho nelanga nenyanga, izinkanyiso zikaNkulunkulu ezigqamile eziseBhayibhelini kanye nobufakazi, azisakhanyi! Nakuba amazwi esatholakala, uMoya wokuqonda uhambile, futhi nakuba becinga ngomfutho omkhulu, ngeke bakuthole ukukhanya...

...ngoba kabamukelanga uthando lweqiniso, ukuze basindiswe. Ngalokho-ke uNkulunkulu uyakubathumela okulamandla okuduka, ukuze bakholwe amanga, ukuze balahlwe bonke abangakholwanga iqiniso, kepha bejabulela ukungalungi. ( 2 Thesalonika 2:10-12 )

The Lord has sent] indlala ezweni, kungabi yindlala yesinkwa, kungabi kukomela amanzi; kodwa ngokuzwa amazwi kaJehova. Bayakuzulazula besuka elwandle, baye olwandle, kusukela enyakatho kuze kufike empumalanga, bayahambahamba befuna izwi likaJehova, kepha abayikulifumana. [ngoba baMlahla esekhona]. ( Amose 8:11-12 )

Njengoba uNebukadinesari walahlekelwa ingqondo yakhe futhi waba njengesilwane, kanjalo nesintu silahlekelwa ingqondo ngenxa yokuphambuka kuMoya wokuqonda. UNkulunkulu ukwehlisa ukuziqhenya kwabo, kodwa ngokungafani noNebukadinesari, ngeke baphenduke, ngoba abakwazi. Izimpilo zabo zisindwa yisono esingathethelelwe nesingenakuthethelelwa, ngoba abaphendukanga ngesikhathi uJesu esabanxusela. Manje akasancengi igazi laKhe (ngaphandle kwalokho, angeke kube khona ukuthethelelwa), kodwa usephumile endaweni engcwele, futhi ulindele ukuvuna abantu Bakhe, njengoba uzobona. esihlokweni esilandelayo.

Nasi isineke [Strong's: ukubekezela okujabulisayo (noma okunethemba), ukungaguquguquki] labangcwele: nansi abagcina imiyalo kaNkulunkulu, kanye nokholo lukaJesu. Ngase ngizwa izwi livela ezulwini, lithi kimi: Bhala, Babusisiwe abafileyo abafela eNkosini kusukela manje. Yebo, usho uMoya, ukuze baphumule ekukhandlekeni kwabo; nemisebenzi yabo iyabalandela. ( IsAmbulo 14:12-13 )

Lapho uJesu eseyekile ukunxusa Kwakhe, ukufa kwabalungileyo kwaba isibusiso, ngoba uma bengenakho ukukhuthazela ukuze bamelane nezilingo ezinkulu ngaphandle kokuwela esonweni, babeyolahlekelwa ukuphila kwabo okuphakade, njengoba isono singeke sisathethelelwa. Ngakho-ke labo abanokholo lukaJesu lokukhuthazela ekugcineni imiyalo kaNkulunkulu banikezwe uphawu lukaNkulunkulu ophilayo,^[18] unikezwe “izinto zansuku zonke” zikaMoya oNgcwele ukubasekela, futhi balungele ukuthatha indima yophawu Lwakhe ngesikhathi sobumnyama.

Isignesha Ephilayo

Esigabeni esidlule, sibone indlela uZerubabele akhethwa ngayo uNkulunkulu ukuba abe yindandatho. Lokhu kwakuhambisana nokubekwa kwesisekelo sethempeli elinkazimulo yalo yadlula eyethempeli likaSolomoni ngenxa yokwamukela uJesu, iNdodana kaNkulunkulu enyameni, phakathi kwezindonga zalo. Lokhu nakho kunokufana nesikhathi sethu. Ithempeli elisembonweni kaHezekeli, elalingakaze lakhiwe emhlabeni ngokoqobo, lifanekisela ithempeli elingokomoya labangu-144,000 XNUMX, abasisekelo sabo sabekwa nguMbuso kaNkulunkulu. umyalezo ovela ku-Orion. UJohn Scotram wayeyithuluzi elikhethiwe lokwengamela ukubekwa kwaleso sisekelo, futhi abe njengophawu. Ngokulandelayo, bonke abanye abayizi-144,000 nabo bazosebenza njengendandatho Yakhe.

UNkulunkulu uyisebenzisa kanjani indandatho Yakhe ephilayo yokubeka uphawu? Njengoba ngishilo ekuqaleni, uphawu lwalusetshenziswa ezikhathini zasendulo ukumemezela ubunikazi negunya. UNkulunkulu usebenzisa abantu Bakhe kuzo zombili izinhloso. Umise igunya Lakhe ngabo. Ngenxa yokuthi abayizi-144,000 bayizithelo zokuqala eziqinisekisa icebo lensindiso, bawuphawu lwesiqinisekiso sokuthi abahlengiweyo bangabizwa ngokusemthethweni ngabantwana bakaNkulunkulu. Lo mqondo ungase ube nzima ukuwuqonda, ngakho ake ngichaze.

Khumbula, ngoba bonke bonile, udeveli uye waba nesimangalo kuwo wonke umuntu kusukela ku-Adamu kuye kuwe, ngaphandle kukaJesu Kristu yedwa, ongazange one. Izoni ziphawulwa nguSathane njengezikhonzi zombuso wakhe, futhi unomona wokugcina bonke ababengabakhe. Labo abamukela uthando lweqiniso ukuze basindiswe ngomusa kaKristu, kufanele babe nophawu lwangempela lwegunya likaNkulunkulu okufanele kuthiwe lingelakhe—uphawu olungenakuphikiswa! Abayi-144,000 bawubufakazi obuphilayo begunya likaNkulunkulu lokubiza umthandi weqiniso njengowaKhe.

Ukulungiselela kukaNkulunkulu ibandla kube ukuthi likhule lifane noKristu,^[19] kodwa akubona bonke abasindisiwe kuwo wonke umlando abafinyelele kuleso silinganiso futhi basinqoba ngokuphelele isono. Kunalokho, babenokholo ohlelweni lukaKristu lokubafikisa kulelo qophelo, uma isikhathi sibavumela. Lolo kholo luqukethe izici ezimbili. Okokuqala, kuwukholo emhlatshelweni kaKristu ophelele, ngaphandle kwawo, akukho nyama ebingasindiswa. Kodwa futhi kuwukholo lokuthi lowo mhlatshelo ophelele wawuyoveza izithelo emhlabeni. Nakuba abangu-144,000 bengakwazi ukwenza lutho ukuze basindise umuntu, benza lokho uKristu ngokwakhe ayengenakukwenza: bafakazela ukuthi abantu, njengoba bake babanjwa esonweni, bangasinqoba ngempela leso sono futhi baphile ukuphila okunjengokukaKristu enyameni. phakathi kwezwe elingcoliswe futhi elinesono kakhulu.

Kuyinto eyodwa ukukhula sibe nguKristu emkhathini wasezulwini, lapho zonke izinto zisekela lokho kukhula, njengoba iningi labahlengiweyo liyokwenza, kodwa kuyinto ehluke ngokuphelele ukukhula ekugcwaleni kobukhulu Bakhe ngokumelene negagasi lobubi emhlabeni kanye nokucindezela kokuvumelana nezinga elithile noma kwelinye. Abayi-144,000 bavela esizukulwaneni esibuthakathaka, esiwohlokayo nesinciphile, kodwa bayalithanda iqiniso, njengabo bonke abantwana bakaNkulunkulu, noKristu ufakaza kanye nabo ukuthi lolothando lwanele ukunqoba zonke izithiyo. Ziwubufakazi bokuthi bonke abantu kuzo zonke izinkathi ababonisa uthando ngeqiniso, uma bebenesikhathi futhi benikezwa ukukhanya, bebeyofika eqophelweni elifanayo lokunqoba. Bafakazela ukuthi konke okudingekile ukuze insindiso iphumelele, uthando oluphakeme ngeqiniso, noma isifiso sokufana noKristu, ngoba ukunqoba kwabo isono kwafezwa ngokholo ngaphandle kwanoma iyiphi enye inzuzo yezimo.

UJesu uthatha uthando lwabo—ukuzimisela kwabo ukumbeka kuqala, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi izindleko zabo zingakanani—futhi uhlala kubo ngoMoya Wakhe. EnoMoya Wakhe kubo, uyabasekela ukuze bakwazi ukuma bengenasono ngesikhathi sezinhlupho, ngokumelene nazo zonke izingqinamba zezimo zabo, okungenye into udeveli angayisebenzisa ngokumelene nabo ukuze alinge ukuba bafulathele indlela yokuphila baye kulokho athembisa khona kuyoba yizimo ezijabulisa kakhulu.

Ngokuba ubeke uthando lwakhe kimi, ngakho ngiyakumkhulula [kusuka esonweni]: ngizambeka phezulu, ngoba ulazi ibizo lami. Uyakungibiza, ngimphendule; ngiyakuba naye ekuhluphekeni; ngiyakumkhulula, ngimdumise. Ngiyomanelisa ngempilo ende. futhi umbonise insindiso yami. (IHubo 91: 14-16)

UNkulunkulu ngeke avumele oyedwa wezisebenzi Zakhe ezinenhliziyo yeqiniso ukuba asale yedwa alwe nezinkinga ezinkulu futhi anqotshwe. Ulondoloza njengetshe eliyigugu wonke umuntu okuphila kwakhe kufihlwe noKristu kuNkulunkulu. Ngabo bonke abanjalo uthi, “Ngi... ngiyokwenza indandatho, ngokuba ngikukhethile” {7T 67.3}^[20]

Inqubo yokuhlanza ayijabulisi, kodwa naphezu kobuhlungu, uma umuntu enothando lweqiniso olukhulu kunakho konke, esevumele uthando lukaNkulunkulu kuye ukuba luvimbe leyo ntwasahlobo, okuhlangenwe nakho kuyabusiswa, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi kunzima kangakanani.. UNkulunkulu angafeza umsebenzi wokuhlanza lapho sivumela uthando Lwakhe ukuba lususe ukuziqhenya kanye nokumelana kwethu.^[21]

Sibheke Ukuza Kwakhe

Ngokuveza obala isentimitha-skwele elilodwa lobufakazi basendulo ngosuku lapho ebeka khona isibusiso esikhethekile, sibona indlela uJehova asebenzisa ngayo indaba yokuphulukiswa kukaHezekiya kanye nesibonakaliso selanga elihlehlayo ukuze akhombe umvuthwandaba omkhulu womlando, lapho izithelo zokuqala zeNsindiso zivuthwa ekugcineni futhi zinikeza iphunga lazo elimnandi. Ngisho nemvelaphi yale mpahla ihambisana nomyalezo ewukhomba!

I-bulla yayisetshenziswa ekuqaleni ukusayina idokhumenti ibhalwe ku-papyrus futhi igcinwe igoqwe futhi iboshwe ngentambo encane ezimpawu zayo ezicashile zingabonakala ngemuva kwenkunzi... Inkunzi yenkosi uHezekiya yatholwa endundumeni kadoti elahlwa phakathi noma ngokushesha ngemva kwesikhathi sikaHezekiya, esakhiweni sobukhosi esasisetshenziselwa ukugcina ukudla.^[22]

Isimemezelo esisemthethweni sokubuya kukaKristu sasinganikezwa ngaphandle kwegunya elifanele. I-Orion idokhumenti zavalwa ngezimpawu eziyisikhombisa, elivela esakhiweni sobukhosi (i-Orion, lapho kuhlala khona iNkosi) esisetshenziselwa ukugcina ukudla (ukudla okungokomoya: okujulile umlayezo e-Orion). Kodwa njengophawu lukaHezekiya, lesi sigijimi siye salahlwa udoti iningi lezwe elingakuqapheli ukubaluleka kwaso okukhulu.

Ngokuphambene nenkolelo evamile, iBhayibheli alisho ukuthi akekho oyoke azi isikhathi sokubuya Kwakhe. UJesu washo ukuthi kwakungaziwa lapho esemhlabeni, kodwa iseluleko sakhe sokuba silinde ngoba asilazi ihora siqondwa kangcono ukuthi kufanele silinde ukuze sibheke. funda ihora lapho sembulwa! Lokhu kwenziwa kwacaca emlayezweni kaJesu ebandleni laseSardesi:

Ngakho-ke uma uthanda hhayi bukela, ngiyakuza phezu kwakho njengesela, futhi uyakwenza hhayi yazi ihora engizakuza phezu kwakho ngalo. (IsAmbulo 3: 3)

UJesu uveza umehluko phakathi kwalabo ababhekile nabangaboni. Ngokuthi uma singabhekile uyosehlela njengesela, futhi asiyikulazi ihora lokufika kwakhe, uthi futhi uma sibhekile, uyokwenza. hhayi yehlela kithi njengesela, thina kuthanda nilazi ihora lokufika kwaKhe. “Ihora” liyiyunithi yesikhathi enembe kakhulu eBhayibhelini. Ukube ubefuna sazi inkathi evamile ngokwezimpawu zezikhathi, njengoba abaningi besikisela, ubengeke asebenzise igama elinjalo.

Kufana nezikhathi lapho ulinda ukulethwa okukhethekile. Uma uhlola ulwazi lokulandelela, luphawulwa njengokuthi “luphumile ukuze luthunyelwe.” Kodwa anazi ukuthi liyofika ekuseni, emini noma kusihlwa! Izikhathi eziningi, ngangicela umshayeli ukuthi angishayele ucingo ngaphambi nje kokulethwa ukuze ngihlangane naye endaweni yokudiliva. Kulezi zenzakalo, ngangibheka ucingo lwabo ukuze ngiqiniseke ukuthi angiphuthelwa, ukuze ngibe nesikhathi sokulungiselela ukuhlangana nabo. Kungokufanayo nangoJesu. Qaphela indlela Akuchaza ngayo:

Kepha lolo suku nalelo hora akakho owaziyo ngalo, nazingelosi ezisezulwini, naNdodana, nguBaba kuphela. Qaphelani, nilinde, nikhuleke, ngokuba anazi ukuthi isikhathi sinini. Ngokuba iNdodana yomuntu injengomuntu owahambela kude, owashiya indlu yakhe, wanika izinceku zakhe amandla, kwaba yilowo nalowo umsebenzi wakhe; waselaya umlindisango ukuthi alinde. Ngakho lindani, ngokuba anazi ukuthi inkosi yendlu iza nini, noma kusihlwa, noma phakathi kobusuku, noma ekukhaleni kwezinkukhu, noma ekuseni; funa afike ngokuzuma, anifice nilele. Nalokhu engikusho kini ngikusho kubo bonke: Lindani. ( Marku 13:32-37 )

Njengoba nje ngangingazi ukuthi kufanele ngilulindele nini ucingo lomshayeli odilivayo phakathi nosuku, isintu sasingazi ukuthi kufanele siwulindele nini umlayezo wokubuya kukaJesu, kodwa sakwazi ukuthi kwase kuseduze. Emzekelisweni lo, uJesu walaya umlindisango ukuthi alinde. Umlindisango wayengumlindisango, futhi wayezobheka isithunywa! Lokhu kuvezwe ngokusobala emfanekisweni wezintombi eziyishumi, lapho kufika isithunywa simemezela ukuthi umyeni usendleleni.

Futhi phakathi kwamabili kwamenyezwa ukuthi: 'Nangu umyeni; phumani niyomhlangabeza. ( Mathewu 25:6 )

Isithunywa siphethe igunya lalowo osithumileyo. Uma kunesimemezelo sobukhosi, siyovalwa ngendandatho yenkosi ukuze abantu bazi ukuthi siyiqiniso. Endabeni yesimemezelo sokubuya kukaJesu, igunya kumelwe livele kuBaba, ngoba uJesu wathi izikhathi zisemandleni kaYise.^[23] Izindaba ezinhle zokuza koMbuso kaNkulunkulu sezifikile, futhi uNkulunkulu uye wasivala leso sigijimi ngendandatho yaKhe siqu yase-Orion!

Futhi lokhu gospel [izindaba ezinhle] lobukhosi iyakushunyayelwa emhlabeni wonke kube ngubufakazi ezizweni zonke; khona-ke ukuphela kuyofika. ( Mathewu 24:14 )

Ufakazi unikeza ubufakazi. Njengoba izintaba zobufakazi zakha ukuthi sisesikhathini sokuvuna kokugcina, kudonsa ukunaka kwesigaba esibanzi nesibanzi sabantu, kuze kube yilapho ubufakazi bungangabazeki kangangokuthi wonke umuntu onengqondo emhlabeni uyoqaphela ukuthi sekuyisikhathi sokuphela kwezwe. “Khona-ke ukuphela kuyofika.” Umbuzo okufanele uzibuze wona uthi, uzoqoqwa kukuphi ukuvuna? Niyakubuthelwa izinyanda phakathi kokhula ukuba nishiswe, noma nibuthelwe esiphaleni kanye namabele?

Yekani kukhule kokubili ndawonye kuze kube sekuvuneni; ngesikhathi sokuvuna ngiyakuthi kubavuni: Buthani kuqala ukhula, nilubophe izinyanda ukuba nilushise;

Ukuvuna kungukuphela kwezwe; nabavuni yizingelosi. Ngakho njengalokhu ukhula luyabuthwa lushiswe emlilweni; kuyakuba njalo ekupheleni kwalelizwe. INdodana yomuntu iyakuthuma izingelosi zayo; bayakubutha embusweni wayo konke okukhubekisayo; nabenza okubi; ( Mathewu 13:30, 39-41 )

Kuthatha isikhathi ukuhlunga nokuvuna isivuno. Ukuphela kwezwe kuyinkathi yesikhathi, hhayi umzuzwana. Lapho uJesu ephuma endlini engcwele yasezulwini futhi egqoka izingubo Zakhe zobukhosi, wathweswa umqhele futhi kwaqala isikhathi sokuphela kwezwe. Maduze isikhathi sokuvuna-lapho isivuno sesivuthiwe futhi okusanhlamvu okuhle kuhlukaniswa nokhula lokuzenzisa. Esihlokweni esilandelayo, uzothola ukuthi lesi sihloko siphindwa kanjani kusAmbulo ngokulingana okuhle “emjikelezweni wokuphela komhlaba” wewashi le-Orion (umjikelezo wezinhlupho).

Isambulo Sesikhathi

Esikhathini esingeside esidlule, sathola iwashi elilula endabeni yokuphulukiswa kukaHezekiya nesibonakaliso elangeni. Esihlokweni, Ethunzini Lesikhathi, salibiza ngokuthi iwashi leNguquko, ngoba lihlanganisa inkathi yeNguquko enkulu yesonto ekuqaleni kwenkathi yanamuhla yomlando, liqokomisa isigaba sokugcina saleyoNguquko, okwakuyi-Great Advent Movement ye-19^th ikhulu leminyaka, futhi ifinyelela umvuthwandaba ngesikhathi samanje kanye nenguquko ephelele esonweni.

Ngakho, uNkulunkulu wathatha inkunzi yobumba encane ebonisa ukubonga kukaHezekiya ngokuphulukiswa akuthola, wayenza yaba isibonakaliso somlayezo wokuphulukiswa esonweni esigcwele sonke isintu ngaso sonke isikhathi! Lelo washi elilula lisinikeza isilinganiso sokufinyezwa kwesikhathi sokuphela, njengoba uJesu athi kumelwe kube njalo:

Uma lezo zinsuku zingafinyezwanga, bekungayikusindiswa nyama, kodwa ngenxa yabakhethiweyo lezo zinsuku ziyakufinyezwa. (Mathewu 24: 22)

Isipho esiyigugu sokuqonda isikhathi, uNkulunkulu asinikeze bonke abazosithola ngale nkonzo, sembula izinto eziningi futhi siphendule imibuzo eminingi ejulile abantu abebelokhu beyibuza iminyaka. UNkulunkulu wenze lokhu, hhayi nje ukuze anelise ilukuluku lethu, kodwa ukuze afundise izifundo ezibalulekile. Umlayezo we-Orion, nazo zonke izingxenye zawo zesikhashana, unikeza uhlaka lwesikhathi kusukela eNdalweni kuze kufike ekufikeni kwesiBili, lapho ukulandelana kwezikhathi kwebhayibheli kunokulingana okumangalisayo okufanele kube umona wawo wonke umKristu ohlola izikhathi!^[24]

Kodwa umugqa wesikhathi we-Orion akuwona ukuphela komugqa wesikhathi esikalini somlando womhlaba wonke! Ngicela ungizwise ukuphinda lokho okwethulwe ngaphambilini, wengeze imininingwane embalwa ukuqinisa umqondo. UPetru waxwayisa ngabaklolodayo ababeyofika ngezinsuku zokugcina, bephika isithembiso sokuza kukaJesu,

bethi: Siphi isithembiso sokufika kwakhe? ngoba selokhu obaba balala, zonke izinto zimi njengoba zinjalo kusukela ekuqaleni kokudalwa. (I-2 Peter 3: 4)

Incazelo yakhe yesiphetho sabo isinikeza isikhathi sokusebenza sokwahlulelwa kwabangamesabi uNkulunkulu:

Kepha izulu nomhlaba okukhona manje kubekelwe umlilo ngalo lona leli zwi, kugcinelwe usuku lokwahlulelwa nokubhubha kwabantu abangamesabi uNkulunkulu. Kodwa, bathandekayo, ningabi ngabangazi lutho ngale nto eyodwa, lokho usuku olulodwa eNkosini lunjengeminyaka eyinkulungwane, neminyaka eyinkulungwane injengosuku olulodwa. INkosi ayilibali ngesithembiso sayo, njengalokhu abanye bathi kungukulibala; kodwa uyabekezela kithi, engathandi ukuba kubhubhe namunye, kodwa ukuba bonke beze ekuphendukeni. (I-2 Peter 3: 7-9)

Ukungathandi kukaJesu ukuthi noma ubani abulawe ngenxa yesono sakhe yikho okwabangela umhlatshelo wokuqala esangweni lase-Edene, insimu kaNkulunkulu, owawufanekisela umhlatshelo woMsindisi wethu eminyakeni eyizinkulungwane ezine kamuva! Ubudlelwano besikhathi uPetru awusungula yilokho iminyaka eyinkulungwane imelela usuku olulodwa, futhi wahlukanisa usuku olulodwa kwabanye, ethi:

Kodwa usuku lweNkosi lizafika njengesela ebusuku; lapho amazulu ayakudlula ngomsindo omkhulu, nezakhi ziyoncibilika ngokushisa okukhulu, nomhlaba nemisebenzi ekuwo kuyakusha. (Funda eyesi-2 Petru 3:10.)

Manje ngiyabuza, luphi usuku lukaJehova? Akufanele sibheke esikweni ukuze sithole impendulo, kodwa eBhayibhelini:

Kodwa usuku lwesikhombisa luyisabatha likaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho ungenzi msebenzi... (Eksodusi 20: 10)

Usuku olulodwa kuphela olubizwa ngokuthi olweNkosi, futhi luhlukaniswa nesonto lonke njengosuku lokuphumula. Akugcini lapho, kodwa neSabatha lihambisana nokuphumula okuthenjisiwe emisebenzini yethu yasemhlabeni, lapho singena eKhanani lasezulwini:

Futhi unquma usuku oluthile, ethi ngoDavide: Namuhla, emva kwesikhathi esingaka; njengoba kushiwo, Namuhla uma nilalela izwi lakhe, ningazenzi lukhuni izinhliziyo zenu. Ngokuba uma uJesu wabaphumuza, ubengeke akhulume ngolunye usuku. Ngakho-ke abantu bakaNkulunkulu basalelwe ukuphumula. Ngokuba ongenile ekuphumuleni kwakhe naye uphumula emisebenzini yakhe njengoNkulunkulu kweyakhe. Ngakho-ke masikhuthalele ukungena kulokho kuphumula, funa kube khona owela esibonelweni esifanayo sokungakholwa. ( Hebheru 4:7-11 )

Khona-ke, kusobala ukuthi isonto lezinsuku eziyisikhombisa, elifinyelela umvuthwandaba ngosuku lwesikhombisa, oluwusuku lweNkosi—iSabatha Layo lokuphumula—liyinkathi yesikhathi uPetru ayichazayo. Izinsuku eziyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha zomsebenzi zinikezwa ngaphambi kosuku lweNkosi, lapho abantu bakaNkulunkulu ekugcineni bengena ekuphumuleni Kwakhe. Ngakho-ke, siyaqonda ukuthi iminyaka eyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha yabelwa umsebenzi wokulwa nesono, ngaphambi kokuba uJesu afike futhi asinikeze ukuphumula.

Manje, iZwi likaNkulunkulu alilona nje izinkulumo nje, kodwa liyisikhali esibukhali nesiqondayo:

Okwe izwi likaNkulunkulu kuyashesha [ukuphila], futhi enamandla, futhi libukhali kunezinkemba zonke ezisika nhlangothi zombili; lihlaba kuze kube sekuhlukaniseni umphefumulo nomoya, amalunga nomnkantsha, lahlulela imicabango nezizindlo zenhliziyo. ( Hebheru 4:12 )

Khona-ke, kufanele sisiphathe ngokucophelela nangenhlonipho kangakanani?! Uma senza kanjalo, futhi sithatha ngokungathi sína iminyaka eyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha yomsebenzi wesono, kunokuba sicabange ukuthi kuwukukhuluma nje, khona-ke sithola ingcebo efihliwe! Ngaphandle kokungena emininingwaneni lapha mayelana nophawu lwezinombolo, kwanele ukusho ukuthi iminyaka eyinkulungwane eyisithupha ihlukaniswe yaba ezine nezimbili. Isikhathi sokwehlukana kwaba ngo-AD 31, lapho iNkosi yethu ibethelwa esiphambanweni.^[25] Siyaphinda futhi, siyakhunjuzwa ukuthi endaweni okugxilwe kuyo yonke inkathi yesikhathi kaNkulunkulu, kumi umhlatshelo woMsindisi wethu. Uyisikhungo sokunakwa ngaso sonke isikhathi. Ekungeneni kwesono, kwathenjiswa umhlatshelo; emva kweminyaka eyizinkulungwane ezine, isithembiso sagcwaliseka; emva kweminyaka eyizinkulungwane ezimbili ngaphezulu, isithelo salowomhlatshelo siyavunwa; futhi emvuthwandaba wesonto leminyaka eyinkulungwane ngemva kweminyaka eyinkulungwane yokuphumula ezulwini, isono siyoqedwa futhi isithembiso sokukhululwa kuso siyogcwaliseka ngokuphelele!

Futhi nakhu ubulula besilinganiso: unyaka lapho iNkosi okufanele kulindeleke ukuthi ivune isithelo somhlatshelo Wayo lapho ibuya (sasingafinyezwanga isikhathi), wawuyoba iminyaka eyizinkulungwane ezimbili ngemva kokubethelwa, noma AD 2031. Njengoba sike sachaza ngaphambili, nokho, ukufushaniswa kwaleso sikhathi kunikezwa isilinganiso esithile ekuphileni okunwetshiwe okwatholwa uHezekiya! Impilo yakhe yayizofinyezwa, futhi iminyaka eyishumi nanhlanu yayizosuswa. Ngakho-ke, unyaka weqiniso wokubuya kukaJesu akuyena u-AD 2031, kodwa eminyakeni eyishumi nanhlanu ngaphambili, noma ngo-AD 2016!

Njengoba sesilindele kuNkulunkulu wethu omangalisayo, lokhu kuvumelana ngokuphelele namanye amawashi Akhe! Usuku lokugcina lwemikhosi yamaJuda ngu-8^th ngosuku lomkhosi wamadokodo othiwa uSuku Olukhulu noma iShemini Atzeret. Usuku lomkhosi olufanekisela ukubuya kukaJesu ngemva kokuzulazula isikhathi eside,^[26] futhi kanjalo, ngendlela elula, singakwazi ukubona kanye usuku iNkosi eyobuya ngalo! Lolo suku luqala ekushoneni kwelanga ngo-October 23, 2016, futhi amahora angu-24 alolo suku ayophila ngokuvumelana negama lalo, ngoba lukhulu ngempela usuku lapho “uza namafu; futhi wonke amehlo ayombona, nalabo abamgwazayo.^[27] Njengoba umhlaba ujikeleza, wonke amehlo ayobona iNkosi yamaKhosi. Abafileyo abalungile bayovuswa futhi abangu-144,000 XNUMX bayohlanganyela nabo efwini ukuze bamamukele njengomkhululi wabo emhlabeni onqotshwe isono, kuyilapho ababi abayobe besasele kuze kube yileso sikhathi bayobhujiswa ekufikeni kwaKhe ngalolo suku.

Lo ngufakazi wesibili^[28] kuya Izinsuku ezingama-372 zokuhlinzekwa okukhethekile kaMoya oNgcwele ezatholwa ekucwaningweni kwencazelo nokubalwa kwemihlatshelo yendlu engcwele, futhi exhumanisa amanye amawashi ngqo nosuku lokuZa kwesiBili.

Bangaki abathi balindele ukubuya Kwakhe, abanethemba ngoJesu iBhayibheli elingamchazi—lowo owamukela izoni eziphila esonweni?! Cha, cha. Lowo ocabanga ukubona iNkosi ngokuthula lapho ebuya, kuyilapho esathakazelela isono, uyodumala kakhulu.

Bheka, uyeza namafu; futhi wonke amehlo ayombona, nalabo abamgwazayo: futhi zonke izizwe zomhlaba ziyakulila ngenxa yakhe. Noma kunjalo Amen. ( IsAmbulo 1:7 )

Bangaki abalalela iseluleko kumaHeberu sokuthi ningazenzi lukhuni izinhliziyo zenu, senizwile izwi likaNkulunkulu? Ingabe ulizwile izwi Lakhe kulo mlayezo ngaphandle kokuba lukhuni ngokumelene nokulungiswa kwawo? Ingabe uke wabubula futhi wakhala ngesakho isono, ulungiselela indlela yokuba uNkulunkulu akuhlanze kuso? Uma ubona ukukhanya okuvela ezingxenyeni zegugu elihle lesikhathi, ngicela usheshe futhi uphuze emthonjeni wokuphila, ngoba usuku olukhulu luseza izinyanga, futhi KAKHULU ukufunda!

Isizini Encane

Singena ngeSabatha leminyaka eyinkulungwane lokuphumula kuKristu! Iminyaka ecishe ibe izinkulungwane eziyisithupha, izwe lihlupheke ngaphansi komthwalo wesono, kodwa esiphambanweni, iNdlela yensindiso yalungiswa, futhi kulo nyaka womlando oyingqophamlando, ekugcineni unesizukulwane esiyohamba kuleyo Ndlela, singazimisele ukuyekelela esonweni. Yilokhu akade ekulindele! Ngemva kwezinyanga ezimbalwa, ukuvunwa kukakolweni kuyoqoqwa, amagilebhisi olaka achotshozwe, futhi udeveli uyoboshwa, kungabi namuntu wokuhola iminyaka eyinkulungwane. Kodwa-ke, uyakhululwa, ngoba ababi bayavuswa futhi baphile “isikhathi esincane” ukuze baphinde bakhohliswe. Izwa ukulandisa kweBhayibheli ngodeveli:

Futhi yena [ingelosi] babamba udrako, inyoka endala, uDeveli, noSathane, kanye wambopha iminyaka eyinkulungwane. Futhi bamphonsa kwalasha [umgodi], wamvalela, wabeka uphawu kuye, lokho angabe esadukisa izizwe, ize igcwaliseke iminyaka eyinkulungwane, emva kwalokho umelwe ukukhululwa. inkathi encane.

[Ezulwini phakathi neminyaka eyinkulungwane:]

Ngase ngibona izihlalo zobukhosi, bahlala kuzo, banikwa ukwahlulela, ngabona imiphefumulo yabanqunywa amakhanda ngenxa yobufakazi bukaJesu, nangenxa yezwi likaNkulunkulu, nabangazange bakhulekele isilo, nomfanekiso waso, noma bengazange baluthole uphawu emabunzini abo, noma ezandleni zabo; futhi baphila, babusa kanye noKristu iminyaka eyinkulungwane.

Kodwa abanye abafileyo akaphindanga waphila [qaphela ukuthi abekho esihogweni, kodwa bafile!] yaze yaphela iminyaka eyinkulungwane. Lokhu [abafileyo abalungile abaphilayo futhi bayabusa] luvuko lokuqala. Ubusisiwe ungcwele onesabelo ekuvukeni kokuqala, phezu kwabanjalo ukufa kwesibili akunamandla, kepha bayakuba ngabapristi bakaNkulunkulu nabakaKristu, babuse kanye naye iminyaka eyinkulungwane.

Lapho iminyaka eyinkulungwane isiphelile, uSathane uyakukhululwa etilongweni lakhe; Futhi uzophuma ukudukisa izizwe [abavuswa ngemva kweminyaka eyinkulungwane] abasemagumbini omane omhlaba, oGogi noMagogi, ukubaqoqela ndawonye empini, isibalo sabo singangesihlabathi solwandle. ( IsAmbulo 20:2-8 )

Ekupheleni kwenkulungwane yeminyaka, uSathane udedelwa “inkathi encane.” Leyo nkulumo isetshenziswe izikhathi ezintathu kuphela eTestamenteni Elisha (zonke ezabhalwa umphostoli uJohane; izinombolo zikaStrong zithi G3398 kanye noG5550), futhi zonke zibhekisela enkathini yesikhathi efanayo! Izikhathi ezimbili zokuqala zivela eVangelini likaJohane:

Khona uJesu wathi kubo: Nokho isikhashana nginawe, bese ngiya kongithumileyo. ( Johane 7:33 )

UJesu wasesithi kubo: Kusenjalo isikhashana ukukhanya kuwe. Hambani nisenokukhanya, funa ubumnyama bunifikele, ngokuba ohamba ebumnyameni akazi lapho eya khona. ( Johane 12:35 )

Womabili abhekisela esikhathini senkonzo kaKristu emhlabeni, okwakuyiminyaka emithathu nengxenye. Esinye isenzakalo sitholakala kusAmbulo, esihlobene nemiphefumulo engokomfanekiso engaphansi kwe-altare:

Lapho selivule uphawu lwesihlanu, ngabona phansi kwe-altare imiphefumulo yababulewe ngenxa yezwi likaNkulunkulu nangenxa yobufakazi ababenabo, bamemeza ngezwi elikhulu, bathi: “Koze kube nini, Jehova ongcwele noqinisileyo, ungahluleli, uphindisele igazi lethu kwabakhileyo emhlabeni na? Base benikwa yilowo nalowo izingubo ezimhlophe; kwathiwa kubo, basazophumula isikhathi esincane, kuze kugcwaliseke izinceku ezikanye nabo nabafowabo ababezobulawa njengabo. ( IsAmbulo 6:9-11 )

Njengoba sichazile ku Isethulo se-Orion,^[29] le nkathi ibhekisela esikhathini sokwahlulelwa kwabaphilayo, naso esibonakala siyiminyaka emithathu nengxenye! Kulokhu, singaphetha ngokuphepha ngokuthi lesi sisho siqonde ngqo kuleso sikhathi sesikhathi. Phela, inombolo ngokwayo iyingxenye yesikhombisa, inani lokuqedwa. Ngakho-ke, limelela i akuphelele umsebenzi! Abaningi bathi uJesu “wakwenza konke esiphambanweni,” kodwa lokhu akulona iqiniso ngokuphelele! Wawuqeda umsebenzi uNkulunkulu ayemnike wona ukuba awenze emhlabeni, kodwa ubelokhu elindele enye ingxenye eqeda iminyaka eyisikhombisa. Iminyaka emithathu nengxenye yokugcina yokwahlulelwa kwaba enye ingxenye: inkonzo kaMoya oNgcwele ukuthola nokubeka uphawu abayizi-144,000 ngophawu lukaNkulunkulu Ophilayo.

Ukuphikisana Kwahlelwa Ngesikhathi

Impi phakathi kukaKristu noSathane ikhonjiswe emigqeni yesikhathi ye-Orion kanye nesonto leminyaka eyinkulungwane. Lezi yizikhathi ezimbili ezisukela eNsimini yase-Edene kuze kube sekuphele iminyaka eyinkulungwane, lapho abalungile bebusa noKristu ezulwini kuyilapho ababi bephumula emathuneni abo.^[30] Isonto leminyaka eyinkulungwane liyiminyaka eyizi-7000 impela, liqala ngokungena kwesono emhlabeni, kanti umugqa wesikhathi we-Orion umude kancane, uqala ngokudalwa komuntu futhi uqhubeke neminyaka eyi-7056. I-Orion millennium ineminyaka eyi-1008 ubude,^[31] ngakho iminyaka eyinkulungwane eyisikhombisa ngalesi sikali iyi-7 x 1008 = 7056 iminyaka. Kusukela eNdalweni ngo-4037 BC, iminyaka engu-7056 isiletha ku-AD 3020. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, umugqa wesikhathi weminyaka engu-7000 uqala ngo-3970 BC, iminyaka eyizi-4000 impela ngaphambi kokubethelwa kukaJesu esiphambanweni, futhi uphela ngo-AD 3016, kubhekwa ukufinyezwa kweminyaka eyi-15.

Kokubili kuyimigqa yesikhathi kaNkulunkulu, kodwa eyodwa (isonto lesikhathi leminyaka engu-7056 e-Orion) igqamisa ukusebenza koMoya kaNkulunkulu, kanti enye (isonto leminyaka eyinkulungwane eyizi-7000) ikhombisa ukusebenza komoya kadeveli. Umugqa wesikhathi we-Orion uqala ngesikhathi seNdalo, lapho uMoya kaNkulunkulu uphefumulelwa ku-Adamu, futhi waba umuntu ophilayo. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, ukuqala kwafika ngemva amashumi ayisithupha nesithupha iminyaka futhi ayisithupha izinyanga, lapho uSathane, ehlala emzimbeni ka inyoka endizayo, wakwazi ukuletha umbhangqwana ongcwele wase-Edene ekungcoleni kwesono. Lesi kwakuyisiqalo somsebenzi wokubhubhisa womoya ongcwele kaSathane, inzondo yakhe ngomthetho kaNkulunkulu ihlanganiswe esibalweni sama-666, isibalo sika-Adamu.^[32] lapho ewela esonweni.

Ekupheleni koMjikelezo Omkhulu we-Orion, ukuzalwa kweNdodana kaNkulunkulu kuphawulwe, lowo uMoya oNgcwele wahlala kusukela esizalweni. Lena kwakuyimpendulo kaNkulunkulu ekungenisweni kwesono: Wethula iNdodana Yakhe njengoMsindisi! Futhi ngakolunye uhlangothi, umoya wenzondo wabonakaliswa nguSathane esiphambanweni, lapho uMkhathi ongawile wawubona ngokucacile izinga lokonakala isono esiletha umuntu kukho, ngoba uSathane wayemzonda kakhulu uKristu, kangangokuthi wayengeke ayeke umzamo wokubona iNdodana kaNkulunkulu ifile. Ukuthokoza kwakhe kwakuwukubona uJesu elenga, ephuma igazi futhi esezinhlungwini ezingokwenyama (nakuba usizi Lwakhe olukhulu lwalungokomoya). Futhi ukunqotshwa kwakhe kubonakala ku- isiphambano esingenalutho, okukhomba ukuvuka kukaJesu. Ukuthi umuntu ubheka isiphambano njengesehluleki^[33] noma impumelelo incike ekutheni babona uJesu elenga kuso, noma uvukile kwabafileyo, futhi wayengaphezu kwamandla okufa.

Ngokulandelayo lokho okuphawuliwe kwakusekupheleni kokwahlulelwa kwabafileyo ngo-2012. Ngenxa yokuthi uJesu wavuswa kwabafileyo futhi wathumela uMoya oNgcwele emhlabeni, ukuphumelela kwesiphambano kubonakala ekuvuthweni kwalabo ababezokwamukela uMoya futhi balandele uJesu, baze badele ukuphila kwabo okuphakade uma kudingeka. Kodwa uma uSathane wayemzonda kakhulu uNkulunkulu waze wafuna ukumbona efile, singaqiniseka ukuthi ubazonda ngokulinganayo abazimiseleyo abangu-144,000 XNUMX! Uma enikwa ithuba, wayezobhubhisa umhlaba wonke ukuze ababulale, ukuze abavimbele ekunikezeni ubufakazi babo! Yilokho kanye ayokwenza! IsAmbulo sichaza ukuxegiswa kwemimoya yombango, engenisa isikhathi esikhulu sosizi emhlabeni. Lize libonise ukuthi kukhona abanye abathi, bephefumulelwe umoya wokubhubhisa ovela kuSathane, babhubhise umhlaba ngokucasuka kwabo! Ngesikhathi esifanayo, ukubhujiswa kwabo komhlaba (okuwukuzibhubhisa!) kusebenza njengolaka lukaNkulunkulu ngokumelene nesono:

Futhi izizwe zithukuthele, kufike ulaka lwakho; nesikhathi sabafileyo sokwahlulelwa, nokuba unike izinceku zakho abaprofethi umvuzo, nabangcwele, nabesabayo igama lakho, abancane nabakhulu; futhi kufanele abhubhise labo ababhubhisa umhlaba. (IsAmbulo 11: 18)

UJesu, ebheka phambili kulesosikhathi senkathazo esisabekayo, uphawula ukuthi kungenxa yabakhethiweyo ukuthi Yena afinyeze isikhathi, kanjalo ebonisa ukuthi ngempela bayisisulu sokubhujiswa, ngoba uma uNkulunkulu ubengeke amise umkhawulo wesikhathi, khona-ke udeveli ubeyophumelela ngempela emsebenzini wakhe wokubhubhisa abayizi-144,000 XNUMX abakhethiweyo! Qaphela futhi, ukuthi futhi, sekuyisikhathi sokuthi izici zokukhululwa kwabo! Uyakubona ukubaluleka kokuqonda isikhathi esiphila kuso?

Ngokuba ngaleso sikhathi kuyakuba khona usizi olukhulu, olungazange lube khona kusukela ekuqaleni kwezwe kuze kube manje, no, futhi olungasayikuphinde lube khona. Futhi uma lezo zinsuku zingafinyezwanga, bekungeke kusindiswe nyama: kodwa ngenxa yabakhethiweyo lezo zinsuku ziyakufinyezwa. (UMathewu 24: 21-22)

Kolunye uphawu, sibona uMoya kaNkulunkulu usebenza kuqala, ulandelwa eduze umsebenzi wokucekela phansi komoya kaSathane. Nokho, okujabulisayo ukuthi izimpawu zokugcina zomugqa wesikhathi—umbhangqwana oza ngemva kwenkulungwane yeminyaka uSathane eboshiwe ngawo, ziyabuyiselwa emuva! Lapho uJehova evusa ababi, ebonisa ukuthi ukuphila akuthenge ngokufa nokuvuka kwaKhe kunikezwa nakubo, umoya wenzondo nokubhubhisa ubabamba ngokuphelele njengoba bebuthelwa ukulwa. Kunokuba bamukele ukuphila ngokubonga, bakhetha inkambo yokuzibhubhisa! Khona-ke uNkulunkulu, iSiqalo nesiphetho, owamemezela ukuphela nge-Orion kusukela ekuqaleni kwendalo, uza ngemva kwesenzo sokugcina sikaSathane, futhi wenza isiphetho sokugcina.

Lapho iminyaka eyinkulungwane isiphelile, uSathane uyakukhululwa etilongweni lakhe, aphume aye ukudukisa izizwe ezisemagumbini omane omhlaba, uGogi noMagogi; ukubaqoqela ndawonye empini; inani labo lingangesihlabathi solwandle. Base benyukela ebubanzini bomhlaba; wahaqa ikamu labangcwele nomuzi othandekayo; kwehla umlilo uvela kuNkulunkulu ezulwini, wabaqeda. ( IsAmbulo 20:7-9 )

Iminyaka emithathu nengxenye, uSathane—manje ebonakala njengenkosi yezwe, esizakala ngokungazi kwababi, njengoba manje esevusiwe—ukhohlisa abantu ukuba bacabange ukuthi ungumsindisi wabo, owabavusa kwabafileyo. Izizwe ziyaphinda zikhohliswe futhi uyazihlela ukuba zihlasele umuzi kaNkulunkulu:

Manje uSathane ulungiselela impi yokugcina enamandla yokuba nobukhosi. Ngenkathi iphucwe amandla ayo futhi inqanyuliwe emsebenzini wayo wokukhohlisa, inkosana yobubi yayidangele futhi idangele; kodwa njengoba ababi abafileyo bevuswa futhi ebona izixuku eziningi ohlangothini lwakhe, amathemba akhe ayavuseleleka, futhi unquma ukungayidali impikiswano enkulu. Uyoqondisa wonke amabutho abalahlekile ngaphansi kwebhanela lakhe futhi azame ngawo ukufeza amacebo akhe. Ababi bayizithunjwa zikaSathane. Ngokulahla uKristu baye bakwamukela ukubusa komholi wamambuka. Bakulungele ukwamukela ukusikisela kwakhe nokwenza intando yakhe. Nokho, ngokuvumelana nobuqili bakhe bokuqala, akazivumi ukuthi unguSathane. Uthi uyinkosana ngubani umnikazi osemthethweni womhlaba nefa eliphucwe yena ngokungemthetho. Uzibonakalisa ezikhonzini zakhe ezikhohlisiwe njengomhlengi, ebaqinisekisa ukuthi amandla akhe abakhiphile emathuneni abo nokuthi usezobakhulula ebudloveni obunonya kakhulu. Njengoba ukuba khona kukaKristu sekususiwe, uSathane wenza izimanga ukuze asekele izimangaliso zakhe. Wenza ababuthakathaka baqine futhi abakhuthaze bonke ngomoya wakhe siqu nangamandla. Uphakamisa ukubahola ngokumelene nekamu labangcwele futhi athathe uMuzi kaNkulunkulu. Ngokwethaba okunonya ukhomba ezigidini ezingenakubalwa eziye zavuswa kwabafileyo futhi umemezela ukuthi njengomholi wawo ukwazi kahle ukugumbuqela umuzi futhi abuyisele isihlalo sakhe sobukhosi nombuso wakhe. {GC 663.1}^[34]

Ngaphambi kokuba bakwazi ukufinyelela edolobheni elithandekayo nekamu labangcwele ngenxa yokuhlasela kwabo, nokho, bayamiswa emikhondweni yabo njengoba belethwa emgodleni wokwahlulela kaNkulunkulu Izikali ziyasuswa ekugcineni emehlweni abo njengoba bebona isizathu sokuthi akukho ndawo yabo phakathi kwalowo muzi omuhle:

Ngase ngibona isihlalo sobukhosi esikhulu esimhlophe nohlezi kuso. okuvela ebusweni bakhe umhlaba [indoda] nezulu [Fallen angels] wabaleka; kabafunyanwanga indawo yabo. Ngabona abafileyo, abancane nabakhulu, bemi phambi kukaNkulunkulu; izincwadi zavulwa. nenye incwadi yavulwa, eyincwadi yokuphila; abafileyo bahlulelwa ngalokho okulotshiwe ezincwadini njengokwemisebenzi yabo. ( IsAmbulo 20:11-12 )

Bese beqonda inkambo yabo nalokho “ umholo okwesono ukufa.”^[35] Bayabona ukuthi okwabo kwakuyinkambo yokuzibhubhisa. Bona zitholiwe umvuzo wabo! Khona-ke, lapho sonke isintu esake saphila, “abancane nabakhulu” (ngoba labo ababephila ngaphambi kukazamcolo babenesiqu esikhulu kakhulu) babona ngokucacile, ukusebenza koMoya kaNkulunkulu nomoya kaSathane, bavuma ubukhosi nokulunga nokuhlakanipha kukaNkulunkulu.

Ngizifungile, izwi liphumile emlonyeni wami ngokulunga, aliyikubuya, Lokho kimi amadolo onke azaguqa, zonke izilimi zizafunga. “Impela umuntu uyakuthi: “KuJehova nginokulunga namandla; ngisho kuye abantu bayakuza; futhi bonke abamthukuthelele bayakujabha. (U-Isaya 45: 23-24)

Ababi bayobe bengekho nhlobo ezulwini futhi banamahloni ngokukhetha kwabo. Nakuba abalungile belithanda iqiniso futhi benikela ngokuphila kwabo okuphakade ngaphambi kokwephula umthetho kaNkulunkulu, ababi babencamela ukulahlekelwa ukuphila kwabo okuphakade kunokuba baphile ngokuvumelana nalowo Mthetho! Bahlwithwa ngezinto zasemhlabeni ngendlela exakile badela indawo yabo ezulwini.

Manje kusobala kubo bonke ukuthi inkokhelo yesono ayikona ukuzimela okuhle nokuphakade, kodwa ubugqila, incithakalo, nokufa. Ababi bayakubona lokho abakulahlekele ngokuphila kwabo kokuhlubuka. Isisindo senkazimulo eyedlula kakhulu futhi yaphakade wadelelwa lapho enikelwa; kodwa yeka ukuthi kufiseleka kanjani manje. “Konke lokhu,” kukhala umphefumulo olahlekile, “kungenzeka ngabe nginakho; kodwa ngakhetha ukuzibeka khatshana lami lezizinto. O, ukuthatheka okuyinqaba! Ngishintshe ukuthula, injabulo, kanye nodumo esikhundleni sosizi, igama elibi kanye nokuphelelwa ithemba.” Bonke bayabona ukuthi ukukhishwa kwabo ezulwini kulungile. Ngokuphila kwabo baye bamemezela: “Asifuni ukuba lo muntu [uJesu] abuse phezu kwethu.” {GC 668.3}^[36]

Ngemva kwalokhu kuvuma, izwi lokugcina liya kuNkulunkulu, othumela umlilo ovela ezulwini ukuba ushwabadele isono nezoni, bese kwakhiwa kabusha indawo yokungcoliswa kwesono yaseMkhathini, isihlanzwe ngokuphelele esonweni, manje ngokukhazimula okukhulu kunokwasekuqaleni.

Ngase ngibona izulu elisha nomhlaba omusha, ngokuba izulu lokuqala nomhlaba wokuqala kudlulile; ulwandle lwalungasekho. ( IsAmbulo 21:1 )

Ichibi Lomlilo

Phawula ukuthi ukuboshwa kukaSathane kweminyaka eyinkulungwane kuqala ekwindla yalo nyaka ka-2016. Lokho kusho ukuthi kuzoqhubeka kuze kube yikwindla ka-3016, iminyaka emine ncamashi ngaphambi kokuba uhlelo lwezenzakalo lwe-Orion lweminyaka engu-7056 lufike ekupheleni kosuku lwayo lokuphumula lwenkulungwane eyinkulungwane ekwindla ka-3020. 3016, elandelwa yizinyanga eziyisithupha ezinikezwe isijeziso echibini lomlilo nokudalwa kabusha kwezulu nomhlaba.

Izikhathi eziningi, imiqondo yethu yezifundo zenkolo ikhula kakhulu ethonyeni lamasiko kunesiyalezo seBhayibheli. Imfundiso yesihogo esivutha phakade ingenye yazo. Kuyiqiniso ukuthi iBhayibheli liyalisebenzisa leli gama “ngihlushwe imini nobusuku kuze kube phakade naphakade,”^[37] kodwa kumelwe futhi siqaphele ukuthi leli gama livame ukusetshenziswa ekubhekiseni ubude besikhathi obungashiwongo, njengoba nje sisebenzisa inkulumo ethi enkulumweni yanamuhla: “O, kwangithatha. Kuze kube phakade ukuze ngiqedele lowo msebenzi!” Futhi uma sibhangqa lokho ngokuqonda ukuthi ukufa ukungabibikho kokuphila, kunokungena ezweni lemimoya, singawaqonda amavesi afana nalawa:

Ukufa nesihogo kwaphonswa echibini lomlilo. Lokhu kungukufa kwesibili. ( IsAmbulo 20:14 )

Kukhona ukuphela kokufa kanye nesihogo. Ichibi lomlilo lingase lingacimi ngenkani, kodwa alishi phakade. Kubizwa ngokuthi ukufa kwesibili (njengaku, “kokugcina”). Ngisho nokufa kuyafa! Okungukuthi, ayisekho! Isihogo sisesigabeni esifanayo. Uma ucabanga ngezindaba zenkolo ngendlela engokwesayensi, uphoqeleka ukuba uqaphele ukuthi ukuze kube nomlilo, kumelwe kube nokuthile okushisa, futhi njengoba usha, uyasha! Umlilo kuphela emiBhalweni ovutha ngaphandle kokushiswa nguNkulunkulu!^[38] Kodwa imililo yesihogo, ngenkathi ibaswa nguNkulunkulu, akubona ubukhona Bakhe, futhi ivutha kuphela inqobo nje uma inokubasa. Lapho iplanethi egcwele izono nabantu abakuyo sebeshisiwe, umlilo uzocisha. Lapho icala lesono umuntu lisindwa kakhulu, yilapho umlilo wabo uba namafutha amaningi, futhi uzovutha isikhathi eside. UDeveli, naye oyophonswa echibini lomlilo, kunokuba aphathe, njengoba imibono ethile eqanjiwe isikisela, uzoshisa isikhathi eside kakhulu, kodwa naye ekugcineni uyoba umlotha:

Ngokuba bhekani, luyeza usuku oluvutha njengeziko; bonke abaziqhenyayo, yebo, nabo bonke abenza okubi bayakuba ngamabibi; futhi usuku oluzayo luyothi bashise, usho uJehova Sebawoti, liyakubashiya nampande [umshoshozeli: uSathane] noma igatsha [isoni]... Niyakunyathela phansi ababi; ngoba bayakuba ngumlotha ngaphansi kwamathe ezinyawo zakho ngosuku engiyakwenza ngalo lokhu,” usho uJehova Sebawoti. ( Malaki 4:1, 3 )

Umkhohlisi Wezizwe

Isikhathi esincane lapho udeveli ededelwa khona sicela umlingani olinganayo ngaphambi kweminyaka eyinkulungwane! Ngempela, kuneminyaka emine futhi ngapha ngaphambi nje kokuba kuqale iminyaka eyinkulungwane. Futhi lapha kuthakazelisa! Njengoba nje inkonzo kaJesu yahlukaniswa, ingxenye yokuqala yenziwa nguJesu, futhi ingxenye yesibili yenziwa uMoya oNgcwele osukwini lwethu, kanjalo “inkonzo” kaSathane yokukhohlisa ihlukene phakathi. Sabona inkathi encane ekupheleni, kodwa kumelwe kube neminye iminyaka emithathu nengxenye lapho ekhohlisa izizwe osukwini lwethu ukuze ziyincome futhi ziyiqedele!

Uyambona uSathane emhlabeni udukisa umhlaba manje? Uma ungazange uzifunde izihloko zethu ezikhuluma ngale ndaba, bambelela esihlalweni sakho, ngoba ungase umangale! Ngempela, i Ingelosi yokukhanya ulapha, uhamba emhlabeni, futhi ubelokhu elapha kusukela entwasahlobo yango-2013 emzimbeni kaPapa uFrancis-iminyaka emithathu nengxenye ngaphambi kwekwindla ka-2016, lapho inkulungwane yeminyaka iqala-ngokulingana okuphelele kwe-chiastic nolunye uhlangothi lwenkulungwane yeminyaka.

Kodwa kusho ukuthini lokhu? Ithini indaba? Ukuze siphendule, ake siqale ezimpandeni. U-Abrahama wanikwa isithembiso esivela kuNkulunkulu. Wathenjiswa inani elingenakubalwa lenzalo—engangesihlabathi solwandle noma engangezinkanyezi zezulu ngenani! UMhlengi othenjisiwe—ithemba lomhlaba wonke—wayezovela enzalweni yakhe. Ngemva kwezizukulwane eziningi, kwafika isikhathi seSifiso sezizwe zonke^[39] ukungena enkonzweni yaKhe yasobala enzalweni kaAbrahama, kodwa baMenqaba. UJesu wayeyisipho sikaYise, ngakho-ke, ekulahleni kwabo uJesu, balahla uBaba baba njengabahedeni, abangazange bamazi uNkulunkulu ka-Abrahama, u-Isaka, noJakobe!

Insali encane kakhulu yamaJuda—abaphostoli abayishumi nambili—yilabo uJesu abasebenzisa ukumisa umbuso Wakhe wokomoya. IsAmbulo sichaza izisekelo zomuzi kaNkulunkulu njengamagama abaphostoli abayishumi nambili kuzo.^[40] Kodwa ngisho nobuKristu babonakele futhi bawa othandweni lwabo lokuqala, bavumela ukuhlubuka kukhule phakathi kwabo. Ekugcineni, balahlekelwa amaqiniso amaningi okungenzeka abaphostoli bawathatha kalula! Ngakho-ke, uJesu wathumela abaguquli abaningi, phakathi kwabo, uMartin Luther owayengomunye wabadume kakhulu, ukuba babuyisele ibandla emaqinisweni kaNkulunkulu angaxegi. Esigabeni ngasinye eduze kwe umugqa wesikhathi wokulungisa, labo abazamukela izinguquko basondela kakhudlwana emthethweni oyisisekelo sikahulumeni kaNkulunkulu. Babekhulela ekugcwaleni kwesiqu sikaKristu.

Isigaba sokugcina seNguquko kwaba ukwamukelwa kweSabatha likaNkulunkulu—usuku olunophawu lwaKhe. Kwakuyisipho esikhethekile esivela eNkosini, futhi labo ababemthanda ngenhliziyo yabo yonke, babesazisa futhi bafunda ukukwazisa ngenxa yesibusiso esiyiso. Phela, usuku lweNkosi—“iSabatha likaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho”!^[41] Lapho ibandla lenqaba iSabatha, lenqaba uJesu, lazihlanganisa nezinhlanga zabahedeni nabaJuda, ababengayazi iNkosi!

Yinsali encane kakhulu yobuKristu—abanye abantu abasha abayishumi nambili—yibo leli qiniso elibusisekile elembulelwa kubo ekufundeni kwabo (ngoba bahlala bethembekile kuNkulunkulu, naphezu kokuvivinywa nokudumazeka abadlula kukho), futhi ngemizamo yabo, amanani abo anda kwaze kwaba yilapho sebesungula iBandla lamaSeventh-day Adventist. Nokho, inqubo yokuvuthwa kwabantu bakaNkulunkulu yayingakapheleli. Kwakukhona a ukuphindaphindwa komlando bebandla lobuKristu, bephelele ngokulahlekelwa uthando lwabo lokuqala, ukuyekethisa, futhi ekugcineni, ukuhlubuka okuphelele. Ezikhathini zokugcina (kusukela ngo-2010), uMoya oNgcwele wathumela isipho esiyigugu kulo mlayezo, kodwa njengoba kwakunjalo ngaphambili, umzimba owawunikezwe wona, wasenqaba. Ngokwenqaba isigijimi se-Orion, benqaba uMoya oNgcwele owawunikeza, futhi bazihlanganisa nabahedeni, amaJuda, namaKristu ayizihlubuki, ayengakaze awazi uMoya oNgcwele!

Ngalokho ngithi kini: Abantu bayakuthethelelwa zonke izono nokuhlambalaza; ukuhlambalaza uMoya oNgcwele akuyikuthethelelwa emadodeni. ( Mathewu 12:31 )

Igama elihunyushwe ngokuthi “ukuhlambalaza” lisho “ukuhlambalaza.”^[42] Yilokho kanye abantu abakwenzile. Bahlambalaze uMoya oNgcwele, bathi umyalezo wakhe uvela kuSathane! Intethelelo yayisekhona kumaJuda ayenqaba isipho sikaYise seNdodana Yakhe, uma ephenduka, futhi intethelelo yayisekhona kumaKristu enqaba isipho sikaJesu seSabatha, uma ephenduka, kodwa isipho sikaMoya oNgcwele simemezela ukuvalwa komnyango wesihe, ngakho angeke kube khona ukuthethelelwa uma wenqatshwa!

Ingabe uke wabuza ukuthi kusho ukuthini ukuthi upapa wayeyovula umnyango wesihe ngesikhathi, lapho ngokwewashi likaNkulunkulu, isihe sesiphelile? Ngisho namaKhatholika amaningi ayazibuza ukuthi ingabe uPapa uFrancis unguMmeli kaKristu ngempela! Abagcini Besikhathi BakaNkulunkulu xoxa indaba ephendula umbuzo!

Cabanga ngokudabuka kobuNkulunkulu, lapho okwesithathu, Benqatshwa iningi lalabo ababethi bayabuthanda! Lapho iBandla lamaSeventh-day Adventist lilahla izikhathi zalo zokugcina zomusa futhi liqhubeka nenkambo yalo yokuhlubuka, ubumnyama phezu komhlaba baba yinto yonke. Umlayezo we-Orion, abawenqabayo, wakhomba ekwindla ka-2012 njengokuphela kokwahlulelwa kwabafileyo, futhi ngalo kanye usuku lokuphela kwakho, iSonto Lama-Seventh-day Adventist, esikhundleni esisemthethweni,^[43] badelela isabatha okwakhiwe phezu kwalo. Abazange baphike kuphela isipho sikaMoya oNgcwele, kodwa neseNdodana ngokunjalo, ngaso sonke isikhathi, begcina isimo seSabatha. Ayikho inhlangano esemthethweni ekhona namuhla emela iNkosi. Bonke bakhona ngaphansi kwe-UN, esebenza ngokuvumelana nezimiso zikadeveli. Abayizi-144,000 abangasontiyo, kusukela kwabayishumi nambili ababethembekile esigijimini sama-Adventist futhi bamukela ukukhanya kwe-Orion, bami ngabanye njengabameleli Bakhe.

Kunokuningi okungashiwo ngalolo suku oludabukisayo, kodwa lumelela ukwenqatshwa kwakho konke uNkulunkulu ayefuna ukubapha kona. Ngokulahla uNkulunkulu kanjalo, bavumela uSathane ukuba alawule ibandla, futhi ngemva kokunqoba ukuphikiswa kokugcina, yacwengeka indlela yokuba alawule ibandla. enyukela esihlalweni sobukhosi. Lokhu, wakwenza ngentwasahlobo elandelayo, lapho upapa wokuqala ongumJesuit ethatha isikhundla futhi eqala uguquko lwakhe lokukhohlisa lweminyaka emithathu nengxenye. Ingabe nawe ukhohlisiwe? Ngakho abaningi abaqapheli nakancane ukuthi bahlanganiswe kanjani nesimiso sokukhulekela kwamanga. Ngisho noma ungeyena umKatolika futhi uzizwa uqhelelene nopapa, isonto osonta kulo uphuze iwayini lakhe njalo izakwamukela ukwahlulelwa. Manje isikhathi sokuhlukana ngokuhlanzekile kuzo zonke izinhlobo zenkolo ehleliwe! Kunalokho, khonza ekhaya nabangane bakho abanomqondo ofanayo!^[44]

Ngemva kweminyaka eyinkulungwane, lapho abafileyo bethola isipho sokuphila kuKristu futhi bevuswa, ukukhohlisa kuyaqhubeka kungapheli eminye iminyaka emithathu nengxenye ngaphambi kokuba kuhlakazeke embusweni. ukukhanya kwenkazimulo kaNkulunkulu. Lapho isisekelo sokugcina seqiniso likaNkulunkulu ekugcineni simenqaba, samukela ukufa ngokungazi, futhi ngemva kokubusa kukaSathane kwenkohliso, lelo qiniso liyaba sobala kubo. Kungaleso sikhathi lapho begcina benqabile ukubusa kukasathane. O, imiphefumulo enenkani nehlubukayo! Iso elivuthayo leNkosi yamakhosi kuphela eliwaphoqayo ukuba avume icala lawo kanye nobukhulu bomthetho kaNkulunkulu! Mngakanani umzamo owenziwe kubo ukuze uvule amehlo ngesikhathi ithuba likhona? Kodwa abazange babone. Bakhetha ubumnyama kunokukhanya, futhi ngemva kokugqolozela ubuso boMahluleli wabo, ekhanya ngothando olungapheli, bayafulathela, bengasakwazi ukukubekezelela ukubona. Khona-ke, ngamabomu bakwamukela ukufa, ngoba abakwazi ukubekezelela ukushiswa phakade kukaNkulunkulu.

Nakuba uSathane uphoqelekile ukuba avume ubulungisa bukaNkulunkulu futhi akhothamele ubukhulu bukaKristu, isimilo sakhe sihlala singashintshile. Umoya wokuhlubuka, njengesifufula esinamandla, uyaphinda uqhume. Egcwele isiphithiphithi, unquma ukungayiphenduli le mpikiswano enkulu. Sesifikile isikhathi somzabalazo wokugcina wokuphelelwa ithemba neNkosi yezulu. Ugijimela phakathi kwezikhonzi zakhe futhi azame ukubagqugquzela ngentukuthelo yakhe futhi abavusele impi esheshayo. Kodwa kuzo zonke izigidi ezingenakubalwa aziyengele ekuhlubukeni, akekho manje ongavuma ubukhulu bakhe. Amandla akhe aphelile. Ababi bagcwele inzondo efanayo ngoNkulunkulu egqugquzela uSathane; kodwa bayabona ukuthi icala labo alinathemba, ukuthi abanakumnqoba uJehova. Ulaka lwabo luvuthela uSathane nalabo abebengabasebenzela ekukhohliseni, futhi ngokufutheka kwamademoni baphendukela kubo. {GC 671.2}^[45]

Ngaleso sikhathi, ngemizuzu yokugcina yosuku olukhulu lweNkosi, umlilo oqothulayo wenza umsebenzi Wakhe wokuhlanza, uletha isinqumo esibi somhlaba ngo-2012 ekufezekeni kwaso ngokugcwele.

Izoni eSiyoni ziyesaba; ukwesaba kubamangazile abazenzisi. Ngubani phakathi kwethu ongahlala emlilweni oqothulayo? ngubani phakathi kwethu ongahlala ekushisweni okuphakade na? Ohamba ngokulunga, futhi ukhuluma ngobuqotho; odelela inzuzo yokucindezelwa, onyathela izandla zakhe ukuba zingafumbathisi, ovala izindlebe zakhe ukuba zingezwa ngegazi, ovala amehlo akhe ukuba angaboni okubi; (Funda u-Isaya 33:14-15.)

Ngesilinganiso esikhulu, siyabona ukuthi yonke iminyaka eyizi-7000 yomugqa wesikhathi kadeveli (owafinyezwa) ungena phakathi komugqa wesikhathi omkhulu weminyaka engu-7056 we-Orion kanye nokunyakaza kukaNkulunkulu. Ekuqaleni, udeveli wayenokuhola okweminyaka engama-66 nezinyanga eziyisithupha phezu kukaNkulunkulu, kodwa ngenxa yokuthi isikhathi sasifinyeziwe, ukuhola kwakhe kwanyamalala, futhi njengoba ukukhohliswa kwesono kwembulwa ngokugcwele phakathi nenkulungwane yesikhombisa, ekugcineni. Abagcini besikhathi bakaNkulunkulu yiba nezwi lokugcina.

Kusekupheleni kweSabatha leminyaka eyinkulungwane le-Orion, ngo-3020, lapho uMkhathi ekugcineni uzophulukiswa ekuguleni kwesono, ududuza amasosha omzimba ayi-144,000, ababelana ngendaba yabo yokuthi uJesu wabanikeza kanjani ukunqoba ezimweni ezimbi kakhulu. Yonke imibuzo mayelana nokulunga komthetho kaNkulunkulu iyachithwa ngenxa yezimpawu ezisezandleni nasezinyaweni zikaJesu kanye nesimo Sakhe sobuntu, njengoba kuchazwa ukuthi wanikela kanjani ngokuphila Kwakhe ngenxa yokuchezuka okuncane kakhulu kulowo mthetho ongcwele. Bonke bangabona ukuthi amandla kaJesu okusindisa ayenele ukubuyisela ngokuphelele isintu esilahlekile, futhi bonke ababefisa lokho kubuyiselwa bakuthola. Akukho kungabaza ngokulunga nokuphelela komthetho, futhi banikela indumiso yabo ngezingoma ezimnandi. Ngaleyo ndlela impilo yoMkhathi izogcinwa, ingaphinde ihlaselwe igciwane lesono.

Ingxabano enkulu isiphelile. Isono nezoni azisekho. Indawo yonke ihlanzekile. Igalelo elilodwa lokuzwana nenjabulo lidlula endalweni enkulukazi. Kuyena owadala konke, kugeleza ukuphila nokukhanya kanye nentokozo, kuzo zonke izindawo zendawo engenakulinganiswa. Kusukela e-athomu elincane kuya ezweni elikhulu kunawo wonke, zonke izinto, eziphilayo nezingaphili, ngobuhle bazo obungasithunzi nenjabulo ephelele, zimemezela ukuthi uNkulunkulu uluthando. {GC 678.3}^[46]

Umnyango Ovulekile

IBhayibheli libonisa ukuthi abangu-144,000 bonke kakade sebebekwe uphawu lukaNkulunkulu Ophilayo. Ukuhlanjululwa kokungcweliswa nokukhula kwesimilo kuqhubeka kuze kube phakade, kodwa banoMoya oNgcwele, futhi uyabasekela ukuze babavikele kulokho abakuzondayo: isono. Kodwa kunokuningi uNkulunkulu anakho ngabo kunokumane babekwe uphawu. Ufuna futhi ukubenza babe njengophawu, njengoba sibonile ngaphambili.

Ebandleni laseFiladelfiya, uJesu akazange alisole, kodwa walikhuthaza ukuba lihlale lithembekile, lingavumeli muntu ukuba athathe umqhele walo (ngokuyengela esonweni), futhi uthembisa ukubalondoloza “ehoreni lokulingwa.” Ngakho-ke, kumelwe bamelele abayizi-144,000 XNUMX kanye nabo bonke abathembekile emthethweni kaNkulunkulu, abayovinjelwa, noma bagcinwe kulelohora. Ngomuntu ohlakaniphile, uNkulunkulu uthi,

Gcina imiyalo yami, uphile; nomthetho wami njengenhlamvu yeso lakho. ( IzAga 7:2 )

Ngoba naphezu kobubi babo besizukulwane esibuthakathaka, baye bazuza ukunqoba esonweni (okuwukweqa umthetho kaNkulunkulu).^[47]), njengoba umelelwa umqhele wabo, babusiswa ngokuphila futhi banophawu lukaNkulunkulu Ophilayo. UJesu wabethulela umnyango ovulekile.^[48] ngazo zibe njengendandatho.

Ngiyayazi imisebenzi yakho; bheka, ngimisile phambi kwakho umnyango ovulekileyo, okungekho muntu ongawuvala; unayo [kuphela] amandla amancane, futhi [okwamanje] uligcinile izwi lami, kakaliphikanga igama lami. (IsAmbulo 3: 8)

Umhubi wahlabelela ngalomnyango, noma isango, nabangena ngalo:

Isandla sokunene sikaJehova siphakeme, isandla sokunene sikaJehova sisebenza ngamandla.
Ngeke ngife, kodwa ngiyophila, futhi nimemezele izenzo zikaJehova.
INkosi ingilayile kakhulu, kepha ayinginikelanga ekufeni.
Ngivulele amasango okulunga. ngiyakungena kuwo, ngimdumise uJehova;
Leli sango likaJehova, lapho abalungile bayongena khona.
Ngiyakukudumisa, ngokuba ungizwile, waba lusindiso lwami.
Itshe abakhi abenqabayo laba yitshe legumbi lekhoneni.
Lokhu kungokukaJehova; kuyamangalisa emehlweni ethu. ( IHubo 118:16-23 )

Le ngoma ephefumulelwe ikhuluma ngezi-144,000! Bajezisiwe kabuhlungu, kodwa bahlanjululwa futhi abanikelwanga ekufeni, futhi uDavide uhlabelela ngethemba abanalo lokungena ngalelo sango—umnyango uJesu awuvulela ibandla laseFiladelfiya, okungekho muntu ongawuvala. Usinikeza umkhondo obalulekile ngakho, ngokuthi itshe abalinqaba abakhi seliyitshe legumbi eliyinhloko. UJesu wacaphuna lesi siqephu futhi wasebenzisa itshe elinqatshiwe kuye.

E-Orion, lesi siprofetho sithola ukugcwaliseka okuphindaphindiwe, futhi itshe kusenguJesu Kristu. Nguye, lowo amawashi agxile futhi agxile kuye. Nguye, umlingiswa wakhe ogqanyiswa encwadini yesifundo enezinkanyezi ngokuqhathanisa nokuqhathanisa. Ngumzimba negazi Lakhe okumelelwe ku-Orion kanye noHlu LweSabatha Oluphakeme. Ungumnyango we-Orion.

Njengoba itshe lenqaba abakhi, kunjalo nanamuhla—lesigijimi esinesimiso saso esingamukeleki sokuhlelwa kwesikhathi nezambulo ezingajabulisi zamaphutha obuntu bomuntu siqu, akulona itshe elikhethekile abefundisi nabadala besonto ababengakhetha kulo ukwakha phezu kwalo ithempeli elingokomfanekiso labangu-144,000 XNUMX! Bakwenqaba, ikakhulukazi ngaphandle kokubuka nje kancane, kodwa manje, ekupheleni kwezwe, uJesu kuyi-Orion wembulwa njengetshe legumbi lokukhetha kukaNkulunkulu.

Futhi kungani uJesu esinikeza lomnyango? Uma sicabangela lokho i-Orion ekushoyo ngoNkulunkulu, kuyosinikeza umkhondo. Kunento eyodwa egqama ngokucace kakhulu: Kusukela ekuqaleni kweNdalo, lapho uNkulunkulu ebeka izinkanyezi ze-Orion, wayazi kusengaphambili indlela umlando owawuzohamba ngayo, ngoba izikhathi eziningi nezinkathi ezibalulekile ziphawulwe lapho futhi zichazwe encwadini ehlaziyayo ephefumulelwe yemiBhalo.

Khumbulani izinto zakuqala zasendulo, ngokuba nginguNkulunkulu, akakho omunye; nginguNkulunkulu, akakho onjengami; Ngimemezela isiphetho kusukela ekuqaleni, kusukela kudala izinto ezingakenziwa. ethi, Icebo lami liyakuma, ngenze yonke intando yami ( Isaya 46:9-10 )

UNkulunkulu usebenzisa le mfanelo yokwazi isiphetho kusukela ekuqaleni njengophawu lwegunya Lakhe! Uzihlukanisa nabo bonke abanye abagaqele isihlalo sobukhosi ngekhono Lakhe lokuprofetha ngokunembayo. Lesi sici sivezwe emlayezweni we-Orion, okuyisimemezelo sokuphela (kwezwe) kusukela ekuqaleni (kweNdalo)! Kuyigunya likaBaba uJesu aliveza ngomnyango ovulekile we-Orion kulabo bebandla laseFiladelfiya ababeyokholwa ngaphambi kokuba kukhule ubufakazi! I-Orion yembula igunya elitholakala endandathoni kaNkulunkulu. Ngakho-ke, abayizi-144,000 abangabaseFiladelfiya, kufanele bangene ngalowo mnyango ovulekile ukuze bathole igunya likaNkulunkulu ngaphambi kokuba basebenze njengendandatho Yakhe, bebeka uphawu kubantwana bombuso Wakhe ngokwentando Yakhe enhle. Yilokhu okukhomba kukho uphawu lokutholwa kophawu lukaHezekiya ngosuku lwesibusiso. Usinike isibusiso segunya Lakhe lokuvala abantu Bakhe!

Empini ephakathi kukaKristu noSathane, kufanele siqonde ukuthi uSathane ungumkopishi. Ubona isibonelo sikaNkulunkulu, futhi uklama okufanayo ukuze kufanelane nezinhloso zakhe. Njengoba nje umnyango ovulekile e-Orion usifundisa ngoNkulunkulu, kanjalo nodeveli unomnyango wakhe ovulekile akhohlisa ngawo abantu ukuba bakholelwe amanga ngoNkulunkulu. Ngomhla ziyisi-8 kuZibandlela wezi-2015, uPapa Francis wabeka umnyango ovulekile wesihe phambi kwabantu. Kuzwakala kukuhle—phela lona kanye iHubo elicashunwe ngenhla liqala ngokubonga okweNkosi “Umusa umi phakade”,^[49] kodwa nakuba uNkulunkulu enesihe, akuhlali kuwo wonke umuntu! Kwakukhona isikhathi sokuhawukelwa kwesoni, kodwa leso sikhathi sesidlulile. ngokuphambene nalokho upapa akushoyo.

Akakopishi nje kuphela umnyango ovuliwe, kodwa nophawu lwamandla olulotshwe kulabo abangenayo! Ufuna ukulingisa ikhono likaNkulunkulu lokumemezela ukuphela kusukela ekuqaleni, ngokwenza izibikezelo zakhe siqu, ngokusekelwe kulokho akwaziyo kulokho uNkulunkulu asekwembulile kakade! Uthola ulwazi lwakhe ngamasekeni, kodwa alwethule njengokungathi kungokubikezela kwakhe!

Onqobayo ngiyakumenza insika ethempelini likaNkulunkulu wami, angabe esaphuma futhi: futhi ngizobhala phezu kwakhe. igama likaNkulunkulu wami, futhi igama lomuzi kaNkulunkulu wami, okuyiJerusalema elisha, elehla ezulwini kuNkulunkulu wami, futhi ngiyakuloba phezu kwalo igama lami elisha. (IsAmbulo 3: 12)

Lolu phawu lungaqondwa kahle kuphela ngolwazi lwe-Orion. Kukhona ukujula okukhulu kwencazelo kulolu phawu (esingathanda ukuyifunda nalabo abathanda iQiniso lalo mlayezo, futhi bazijwayele), futhi sathola lokho kuqonda ngo-January 12, 2013. Ngemva kweminyaka engu-3 impela kuze kube usuku, uPapa Francis wakhipha incwadi yakhe entsha: Igama likaNkulunkulu nguMusa!^[50] Akukhona nje kwaqondana ukuthi incwadi yakhe ekhuluma ngalokho akubhekayo iwuphawu oluyinhloko lobuyena bukaNkulunkulu^[51] ikhishwa ngalo kanye usuku lokugubha usuku lapho uNkulunkulu embula khona uphawu lwangempela lobuyena, olufanele lesi sikhathi!

Lapho umuntu ekuqonda lokho lo papa ongumJesuit akayena uJorge Bergoglio, kodwa ukuthi lo muntu wazinikela ngokuphelele ukuba abe njengesidumbu,^[52] ekulawuleni uSathane ngokugcwele, singaqala ukuqonda ukubaluleka kwamazwi akhe. Singaqonda ukuthi kungani usathane efuna ukuba abantu bakholwe ukuthi yisikhathi somusa, ngoba uyazi ukuthi noma yisiphi isono esenziwe manje uNkulunkulu akanakuthethelelwa, ngoba uJesu akasakhulumeli egameni lomuntu. Udeveli uphezu komkhankaso wokubhubhisa, futhi iningi labantu aliboni nokuthi lisengozini! O, yeka indlela inhliziyo yami ebalangazelela ngayo—abantwana bakaNkulunkulu abancane, abangazinaki izingozi ezibazungezile! Ngakho-ke, abaningi bayobekwa ekuphumuleni njengesilinganiso sesivikelo ezinyangeni ezizayo, futhi labo abangqondo yabo ivalwe ngophawu lukaNkulunkulu Ophilayo, abanesifiso esijulile sokuphila ngaphandle kwesono, banikezwa uMoya oNgcwele, obasekelayo, ukuze bangawi;

Ungesabi; ngokuba mina nginawe; ungapheli amandla; ngokuba mina nginguNkulunkulu wakho; ngiyakuqinisa; yebo, ngizokusiza; yebo, ngiyakusekela ngesandla sokunene sokulunga kwami... Ngokuba mina Jehova uNkulunkulu wakho ngiyakubamba isandla sakho sokunene, ngithi kuwe: Ungesabi; ngizokusiza. ( Isaya 41:10, 13 )

Inkolelo yokuthi ubuyena obungaphelelwa yisikhathi bukaNkulunkulu buyisihe, iyinkohliso kadeveli ocingweni lwaseFiladelfiya, okuthi nge-Orion, lwembule ubunjalo Bakhe bangempela bendawo yonke. Kodwa lokho akuhambisani nesikhathi sokuphela kwezwe, lapho uNkulunkulu ethulula ulaka Lwakhe lungaxutshwe nalutho!^[53] Kwakukhona isikhathi somusa, kodwa manje yiso isikhathi solaka. Umusa kaNkulunkulu awuhlali phakade ngakusoni, kodwa kulabo abamesabayo kuphela!

Kodwa umusa kaJehova usukela phakade kuze kube phakade phezu kwabamesabayo. (IHubo 103: 17)

Ibandla lothando lobuzalwane (Filadelfiya) libonakalisa umfanekiso kaKristu, futhi bezwa izwi Lakhe livela ezulwini, futhi kufanele babekwe uphawu ngalokho kuqonda. Bahlangabezana nezimfuneko, futhi manje kumelwe baqoqwe ngomnyango ovuliwe uJesu abethula kubo. Esihlokweni esilandelayo, umzalwane uGerhard uyohlanganyela kanye kanye lapho leso sikhathi sokubuthwa siyofika ngaso, lapho izimvu ezivela kwezinye izibaya ziyozwa izwi laKhe futhi zikhishwe eBabiloni, ekugcineni ngomnyango ovulekile awuthula kuzo nge-Orion.

Nezinye izimvu nginazo, ezingezona ezalesi sibaya; nazo futhi kufanele ngizilethe, futhi zizolizwa izwi lami; futhi kuyoba mhlambi munye, nomalusi munye. ( Johane 10:16 )

Babusisiwe Abazwayo

Esigijimini se-Orion, sidla uJesu, imana lasezulwini—ukudla lokho “ikhuthazela kuze kube-ngukuphila okuphakade,” njengoba uJesu asho:

Ningasebenzeli ukudla okuphelayo, kodwa ukudla okuhlala kuze kube ngukuphila okuphakade; elizakunika lona iNdodana yomuntu: ngoba yena uNkulunkulu uYise ubeke uphawu. (UJohn 6: 27)

Isipho sikaMoya oNgcwele, uJesu asithembisa, asikaze sithululwe ngesandla esivulekile njengalesi sigijimi—lokhu kudla okuhlala njalo kuze kube ukuphila okuphakade! Bonke ubuNkulunkulu bulandela lomlayezo, ngoba uza njengemvula yamuva iqabula uMoya oNgcwele futhi iyisambulo sikaJesu Kristu, lowo uBaba, uqobo Lwakhe, abeke phezu kwakhe uphawu Lwakhe lwegunya!

Isambulo sikaJesu Kristu, uNkulunkulu amnika sona, ukuba abonise izinceku zakhe izinto ezimelwe ukwenzeka masinyane; wathumela wabonakalisa ngengelosi yakhe [uMoya oNgcwele] encekwini yakhe uJohane:... Ubusisiwe yena ofundayo, futhi bona abezwa amazwi alesi siprofetho, nigcine okulotshiweyo kuyo, ngokuba isikhathi siseduze. ( IsAmbulo 1:1,3, XNUMX )

Uyawezwa amazwi esambulo sikaJesu Kristu evela ezulwini? Noma uzwa ukuduma kuphela, njengalabo ababengezwa izwi likaNkulunkulu ezulwini ngokuqinisekisa kweNdodana yakhe, eyakhathazeka lapho icabanga okumele ikwenze:

Manje umphefumulo wami ukhathazekile; futhi ngizothini? Baba, ngisindise kulelihora, kodwa ngenxa yalokhu ngize kuleli hora. Baba, khazimulisa igama lakho. Kwavela izwi ezulwini, lithi: Ngilikhazimulisile; futhi uyophinde alikhazimulise. Ngakho abantu ababemi khona bekuzwa bathi liyaduma; abanye bathi: Ingelosi ikhulume kuye. ( Johane 12:27-29 )

Abayi-144,000 banesipiliyoni esifanayo njengoba belethwa ekuboneni ukuthi ukuphila kwabo okuphakade kungase kudingeke, kodwa banquma ukuthi ukuzizuzisa kwabo siqu akubalulekile, kodwa kuphela ukuthi igama likaYise malikhazinyuliswe! UBaba akazange alikhazimulise ngokuqondile igama laKhe siqu. Kunalokho, wayikhazimulisa iNdodana Yakhe, eyayikhazimulisa yona.

UJesu wakhuluma lokho, wayesephakamisela amehlo akhe ezulwini, wathi: “Baba, isikhathi sesifikile; khazimulisa iNdodana yakho, ukuze iNdodana yakho ikukhazimulise wena (Johane 17:1).

Futhi Uyaqhubeka, echaza ukuthi iyiphi inkazimulo Akhuluma ngayo:

Futhi manje, O Baba, ngikhazimulise wena nawe uqobo ngenkazimulo enganginayo kuwe izwe lingakabikho. (UJohn 17: 5)

Ngokuba amazwi onginike wona ngibanikile bona; futhi sebekutholile [kuzwile] kubo, bazi isibili ukuthi ngiphumile kuwe, bakholwa ukuthi ungithumile. (UJohn 17: 8)

Futhi konke okwami ​​kungokwakho, nokwakho kungokwami; futhi ngiyakhazinyuliswa kubo. (UJohn 17: 10)

Nenkazimulo onginike yona ngibanikile; ukuze babe munye, njengalokhu thina simunye; mina kubo, nawe ukimi; ukuze bapheleliswe babe munye; futhi ukuze izwe lazi ukuthi wena ungithumile, futhi ubathandile, njengoba nje ungithandile. (UJohn 17: 22-23)

O, mfundi othandekayo, singabona kodwa inhlansi encane yalokho okushiwo lawa magama ayigugu! Singaliqonda kanjani izinga lokuthi kusho ukuthini ukuba munye nobunkulunkulu ngisho nokuhlala Naye esihlalweni Sakhe sobukhosi?!^[54] Ingabe niwazwile amazwi esambulo sikaJesu Kristu e-Orion, uBaba asinika Yena, owasinika uMoya oNgcwele, owasinika wona? Ingabe ususitholile isithembiso salesi sibusiso esimangalisayo ngendlela engachazeki? Niyazi yini ukuthi leli zwi livela kuBaba, nikholwa ukuthi nguJesu, amthuma ngalo? Ngokushesha izwe lizoqaphela ukuthi leli litshe legumbi eliyinhloko, njengoba lifunda ukuthi uBaba uyasithanda njengoba ethande iNdodana yaKhe siqu!

Bheka, ngiyakubakhipha esinagogeni likaSathane, abathi bangamaJuda, bengesiwo, kodwa beqamba amanga; bheka, ngizabenza beze bakhuleke phambi kwenyawo zakho; nokwazi ukuthi ngikuthandile. (IsAmbulo 3: 9)

Lesi , mfundi othandekayo—isibusiso uBaba ayeyoba kithi ngoKristu—kuyisipho esihlala njalo kulabo balesisizukulwane, abangena ezulwini ngomnyango ovuliwe e-Orion!

Ngokuba kusukela endulo abantu abezwanga, abazwanga ngendlebe, neso alikubonanga, Nkulunkulu, ngaphandle kwakho; lokho amlungisele khona elimlindileyo. (U-Isaya 64: 4)

Ubusisiwe lowo linda, afike ezinsukwini eziyinkulungwane namakhulu amathathu namashumi amathathu nanhlanu. ( Daniyeli 12:12 )

Iminyaka eminingana, uJesu wanxusa izakhamuzi zomhlaba ngalenkonzo:

Bheka, ngimi ngasemnyango, ngingqongqotha; uma umuntu ezwa izwi lami, avule umnyango. ngizongena kuye. njalo ngizakudla laye, laye lami. Kulowo onqobayo ngiyakuvuma ukuhlala nami esihlalweni sami sobukhosi, njengalokho nami nganqoba, ngahlala noBaba esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi. (Isambulo 3: 20-21)

Ngokudabukisayo, bambalwa kakhulu abezwa izwi Lakhe livela ku-Orion futhi bavula umnyango ngenkathi Engqongqoza. Manje sekuthulekile emnyango kulabo abangasinakanga isicelo sakhe. Ubashiye beyincithakalo yobukhona bukaNkulunkulu. UMoya Wakhe awusaqhubi kubo, osekuphawuleka kakhulu njengoba umfanekiso kaNkulunkulu, owabonakalisa umuntu kusukela eNdalweni yakhe, ucinywa ngokuphelele ngangokunokwenzeka kuzo zonke izici zokuphila.

Iqiniso LeZulu

Abantu abaningi banomqondo mbumbulu wezulu. Bacabanga ngendawo lapho abantu behlala khona phezu kwefu elimhlophe bedlala ihabhu. Angazi ngawe, kodwa lokho kuzwakala kuyisicefe ngokubona kwami! Kodwa lowo umqondo ngokubonga ongenazimpande emBhalweni! Kunalokho, iBhayibheli kanye neNdalo ngokwayo inikeza umbono okhuthazayo kakhulu ngezulu. Kuyo yonke le minyaka, isibhakabhaka esigcwele izinkanyezi siye saba umthombo omangalisayo nesimangaliso ezigidini zabantu. Kudinga umcabango wakho! Kungaba njani ukuhamba emkhathini ngokushesha kunejubane lokukhanya (ngoba isivinini sokukhanya siyanensa kakhulu ukuba sibe umkhawulo wejubane osebenzayo wokuhamba phakathi kwemithala!)? Noma ukushona kwelanga bekuzobukeka kanjani eplanethini efana noMhlaba enezindandatho ezinjengeSaturn nezinyanga eziningi? Noma ake ucabange uhamba phakathi kwamafu amibalabala e-nebula! Ubukhulu nobuhle besikhala kunikeza inani elimangalisayo lokuzithokozisa ngomcabango! Vumela lokhu kugqwayiza okuncane kukunikeze ukunambitha okuncane kwesikali esikhulu soMkhathi KaNkulunkulu!^[55]

Ingabe umcabango wakho wezulu uhlanganisa izigcawu ezifana nalezi? Noma ucabanga ukuthi uJesu uzomane asisuse ngokuphazima kweso, futhi phoof, sesisemasangweni amaparele? Awucabangi ukuthi uJesu angase abe nezinhlelo zokuhamba ezihleliwe? Iqiniso liwukuthi Usesinikeze nemininingwane ethile ngohlelo lohambo! Uzothola lokho esihlokweni sokugcina salolu chungechunge. Noma kuthiwani ngamasango amaparele? Ingabe uke wachitha isikhathi ucabanga ngekhaya lakho eliseJerusalema Elisha, noma indawo uJesu ayilungiselele wena? IBhayibheli linikeza ulwazi oluncane lokusonga umcabango wakho nxazonke:

Ukwakhiwa kogange lwawo kwakuyijaspi, nomuzi wawuyigolide elicwengekileyo, linjengengilazi ecwebezelayo. Izisekelo zogange lomuzi zazihlotshiswe ngawo wonke amatshe anenani.... Amasango ayishumi nambili ayengamaparele ayishumi nambili; isango ngalinye lalingeleparele linye, nesitaladi somuzi sasiyigolide elicwengekileyo njengengilazi ekhanyayo. ( IsAmbulo 21:18-19, 21 )

Kuzwakala kukuhle, akunjalo? UNkulunkulu unguNkulunkulu wobuhle. Idolobha ligcwele amagugu amahle nezinto zokwakha ukuze kuvuse ilukuluku lokwazi lososayensi nengqondo ebuzayo. Ubukhulu bayo abuyona isimangaliso esincane, futhi, ngoba icishe ibe nkulu njengeplanethi encane, enendawo okuhlalwa kuyo cishe enkulu kakhulu kunaleyo yamaplanethi amaningi alingana noMhlaba! Ubungeke yini uthande ukubona ukwakheka kwayo? Ukubona ukuthi izisekelo eziyishumi nambili zimi kanjani? Ukuhlala ngasemfudlaneni ogeleza uvela esihlahleni sokuphila, ujabulela ubuhle, ukuhlanzeka, nenjabulo yazo zonke izici zako? Lishaya ifu elimhlophe nehabhu, akunjalo?

Izulu liyindawo yangempela, futhi likhulu, libanzi, futhi ligcwele ukuphila, izimanga, nothando. Kodwa kungase kube yinto eshaqisayo engokwesiko, evela kule planethi egcwele izono—izimvu ezilahlekile zesibaya sikaNkulunkulu! Ucabanga ukuthi uNkulunkulu uzomane asule izinkumbulo zethu futhi asenze sibe basha? UNkulunkulu akanjalo. Nakuba kungekho okungcolisayo okuyongena ezulwini, iBhayibheli likhuluma ngesikhathi soguquko:

Futhi UNkulunkulu uyakwesula izinyembezi zonke emehlweni abo; ukufa akusayikuba-khona, nokudabuka, nokukhala, nobuhlungu akusayikuba-khona; ngokuba okokuqala kudlulile. ( IsAmbulo 21:4 )

Kuyoba khona izinyembezi ezulwini, njengoba siqaphela ukuthi iningi labangane bethu nabathandekayo bethu bakhetha ukugxilisa amehlo abo ezintweni zasemhlabeni futhi balahlekelwa yilesi sibusiso. Kodwa uNkulunkulu uyozesula ngomusa lezo zinyembezi, khona-ke, ngemva kokuba konke ukuphila sekubukeziwe ngokwemibhalo egciniwe yasezulwini, izinto zangaphambili zidlulele ekukhohlweni.

Ngokuqondene nesintu, akekho noyedwa wethu ofanelwe nokuncane kuleso sibusiso esimangalisayo. Kuyisipho kulabo abakholwayo. Abayizi-144,000 bafisa ukuhamba ezindleleni zikaNkulunkulu, bephila ngomthetho waKhe wenkululeko.^[56] Lokhu bakwenza ngoba kuyindlela abafuna ukuphila ngayo, hhayi ukuthola umvuzo noma ukwesaba ukujeziswa. Nakuba kubiza ukuphila kwabo okuphakade, ngeke kuguqule indlela abaphila ngayo. Bamele uNkulunkulu ngoba umthetho Wakhe ulotshiwe ezinhliziyweni zabo—impilo yabo yokutholwa, futhi akukho okungabahlukanisa nayo. Bayizakhamuzi zasezulwini, noma besemhlabeni, futhi isimo sasezulwini silotshiwe ezinhliziyweni zabo!

Onemiyalo yami, ayigcine, nguyena ongithandayo; ongithandayo uyakuthandwa nguBaba, nami ngiyakumthanda, ngizibonakalise kuye. ( Johane 14:21 )

Ingabe uyamthanda uNkulunkulu neQiniso ngokwanele ukuba unikele ngokuphila kwakho njengoba kwenza uJesu, ngisho noma lokho kusho ukuthi alikho izulu kuwe? Uyasibona isithombe esikhulu, futhi ufisa ukumela uNkulunkulu ekuqinisekiseni insindiso, ukuze abanye bathole izulu, ngisho noma kusho ukuthi wena ngeke? Uma kunjalo, uJesu ukwethula kuwe umnyango ovulekile we-Orion, futhi uyokwenza ube njengophawu Lwakhe.

INkosi inezimfihlo zayo. Lapho uHezekiya ecindezela indandatho yakhe etsheni lobumba, wayengazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu wayezowusebenzisa kanjani lo mbhalo wokubonga ngokuphila kwakhe okunwetshiwe. Wayengazi ukuthi eminyakeni engamakhulu angamashumi amabili nesikhombisa kamuva, yayizosetshenziselwa ukukhomba isibhakabhaka esigcwele izinkanyezi kanye nesigijimi sokubuya koMsindisi wethu! Wayefuna nje ukuthi, “Ngiyabonga, Nkosi!” Futhi yingakho ngifise ukubhala lesi sihloko. Ngifuna ukuthi, “Ngiyabonga, Nkosi!”

Ngiyabonga ngokwehlela kulo mhlaba omnyama nongcolile futhi wazithoba Ngayo yonke indlela Waze walenga unqunu esiphambanweni, udelela ihlazo. Ngiyabonga ngesipho sokuphila, esangikhulula ebugqilini besono! Okuwukuphela kwesicelo sami esake sachazwa kangcono nguDavid: “Mina-ke, ngizabubona ubuso bakho ekulungeni; ngizasutha ekuphaphameni kwami ​​ngomfanekiso wakho.”^[57] Angizange ngicele ukuhamba emkhathini noma ukuba nendawo ephakeme embusweni Wakho. Ngizokwaneliseka ukuba nomfanekiso Wakho futhi ngibone ubuso Bakho! Ngalé kwalokho, malikhazinyuliswe igama likaBaba wethu, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ngokuphila kwami ​​noma ngokufa kwami. Amen.
