Ngaba uyenze lukhuni intliziyo yakho, okanye uyakholelwa?
Umbhali wamaHebhere wawaxelela ngenkalipho amaHebhere Namhlanje ke, ukuba niyaliva ilizwi lakhe, musani ukuzenza lukhuni iintliziyo zenu, njengasengcaphukisweni. Emva koko walandela imibuzo eliqela- “Ngubani na kambe owavayo, wagwilika? Ewe, ayingabo bonke abo baphuma eYiputa, bekhokelwa nguMoses? Yayicaphukele bani na iminyaka emashumi mane? Yabingengabo na abo bonayo, bazidumbu zawayo entlango? Wafungela oobani na ke, ukuba abayi kungena ekuphumleni kwakhe, ingengabo abo bangevanga? (Hebhere 3: 15-18Emva koko uqukumbela - Siyabona ke, ukuba babengenakungena, ngenxa yokungakholwa. (Hebhere 3: 19)
UThixo wathetha kuMoses - “… Ndikubonile ndakubona ukuphathwa kakubi kwabantu bam abaseYiputa, kwaye ndisivile isikhalo sabo ngenxa yabaqhubi babo, kuba ndiyazazi iintlungu zabo. Ndihlile ke, ukuze ndibahlangule esandleni samaYiputa, ndibanyuse ezweni elo, ndibase ezweni elilungileyo, elibanzi, elibaleka amasi nobusi… ” (IEksodus 3: 7-8)
Kodwa ke, emva kokuba amaSirayeli ekhululwe ebukhobokeni eYiputa, aqalisa ukukhalaza. Bakhalaza ngelithi amajoni kaFaro aza kubabulala; ke uThixo wawahlulahlula uLwandle oluBomvu. Babengazi ukuba baya kusela ntoni na; uThixo wabanika amanzi. Babecinga ukuba baza kufa yindlala; uThixo wathumela imana ukuba batye. Babefuna inyama ukuba batye; uThixo wathumela izagwityi.
UThixo wathetha noMoses eKadeshe-bhaneya - “Thumela amadoda aye kuhlola ilizwe laseKanan, endilinika oonyana bakaSirayeli…” (INum. 13: 2aEmva koko uMoses wawaxelela loo madoda “… Nyuka ngale ndlela ubheke ngaseZantsi, unyuke uye ezintabeni, ulibone ukuba linjani na ilizwe elo; nokuba umhlaba abahlala kuwo ulungile okanye mbi; ingaba izixeko abahlala kuzo zinjengeenkampu okanye iinqaba; Nokuba umhlaba ucebile okanye awuthathi ntweni; nokuba kukho amahlathi apho okanye cha. Yiba nesibindi. Nize neziqhamo zomhlaba lowo. (INum. 13: 17-20)
Yayililizwe elichumileyo elo! Ukufika kwabo kwiNtlambo ye-Eshkoli, bagawula isebe elinesihloko esinye seediliya, esasilikhulu kangangokuba kwakufuneka sithwalwe ngepali ngamadoda amabini.
Iintlola ezo zamxelela uMoses ukuba abantu belo lizwe bomelele, kwaye nezixeko zazinqatyisiwe kwaye zinkulu. UKalebhi wacebisa amaSirayeli ukuba anyuke ngokukhawuleza aze awuthathe umhlaba, kodwa ezinye iintlola zathi, 'asinako ukunyuka siye kulwa nabantu, kuba banamandla kunathi.' Baxelele abantu ukuba ilizwe lilizwe 'eliqwenga abemi balo,' kwaye abanye babo yayingamadoda amakhulu.
Ngenxa yokungakholwa, amaSirayeli akhalaza kuMoses noAron - Akwaba besifele ezweni laseYiputa! Akwaba besifele nakule ntlango! Yini na ukuba uYehova asizise kweli lizwe ukuze siwelikrele, abafazi nabantwana bethu babe ngamaxhoba? Akusilungele na ukuba sibuyele eYiputa? (INum. 14: 2b-3)
Babenamava okuqhubeka kukaThixo kubo emva kokuba bekhutshiwe ebukhobokeni base-Egypt kodwa bengakholelwa ukuba uThixo angabakhusela kwiLizwe Lesithembiso.
Njengokuba amaSirayeli ayengakholelwa ukuba uThixo angabakhokela ngokukhuselekileyo kwiLizwe Lesithembiso, sizikhokelela kwaphakade ngaphandle koThixo ukuba asikholelwa ukuba idini likaYesu lanele ukuba likhululeke ngonaphakade.
UPawulos wabhala kumaRoma-- Bazalwana, inkolelo yeyam intliziyo, nesikhungo sam kuye uThixo, ngenxa yamaSirayeli, sesokuba asindiswe. Kuba ndiyabangqinela ukuba banokumzondelela uThixo, koko bengamzondeleli ngokokwazi kwakhe. Kuba bathe, bengabazi ubulungisa bukaThixo, befuna nokumisa obabo ubulungisa, ababululamela ubulungisa bukaThixo. Kuba intsingiselo yomthetho nguKristu, ukuze abe bubulungisa kubo bonke abakholwayo. Kuba uMoses ubulungisa basemthethweni uthi ukububhala, Umntu ozenzileyo ezi zinto uya kuphila zizo. Kodwa ubulungisa bokholo buthetha ngolu hlobo, Musa ukuthi entliziyweni yakho, Ngubani na oya kunyuka aye emazulwini? Oko kukuthi, ukuhlisa uKrestu phezulu; nokuba, Ngubani na oya kuhla aye enzonzobileni? Oko kukuthi, kukuvusa uKristu kwabafileyo. Kodwa ithini? Eli lizwi likufutshane nawe, lisemlonyeni wakho nasentliziyweni yakho. , uya kusindiswa. Kuba umntu ukholwa ngentliziyo, ukuze abe nobulungisa; avume ke ngomlomo, ukuze asindiswe. Kuba isibhalo sithi, Bonke abakholwayo kuye abayi kudaniswa. Kuba akukho mahluko phakathi komJuda nomGrike, kuba inye iNkosi kubo bonke isisityebi kubo bonke abayinqulayo. Kuba bonke abasukuba belinqula igama leNkosi bosindiswa. (AmaRoma 10: 1-13)
