- Azekusinika ubomi obungunaphakade kwabo bakholwayo kuye(UYOHANE 3:16) UYesu wakwenza kwacaca ukuba ukugatya ubomi obungunaphakade awabunikelayo kwakuya kubangela inkxwaleko engunaphakade esihogweni: “Lowo ungakholwayo uselegwetyiwe….ingqumbo kaThixo ihleli phezu kwakhe” (Yohane 3:18, 36). Kodwa kwabo bathembela kuKristu, ezona zilungileyo ziseza. “Akukho liso lizibonileyo, nendlebe ezivileyo, nentliziyo yomntu eziqiqileyo, izinto uThixo azilungisele abo bamthandayo” (1 KwabaseKorinte 2:9). Thandaza: Thixo othandekayo, ndiqinisekile ukuba uYesu wabandezeleka waza wafela izono zam. Ndizinikela kuye ngombulelo ngoku abeyiNkosi yam kunye neNdyebo yam exabisekileyo kwaye abeyindlela kuphela endiya kulufumana ngayo uxolelo lwakho kunye nesithembiso sakho sobomi obungunaphakade. Amen.
- Ukusisa kuThixo: Igama elithi “iVangeli” lithetha ukuba “iindaba ezilungileyo,” yaye zonke zigqibela ngelinye: kuThixo ngokwakhe. Igospile ziindaba ezilungileyo zokuba ngelahleko yobomi boNyana wakhe, uThixo wenze yonke into efunekayo ukuze asithimbe ngento eya kusenza sonwabe ngonaphakade nangokungenasiqamu—yena ngokwakhe. “UKristu wabandezeleka kwaba kanye ngenxa yezono, ilungisa lisiva ubunzima ngenxa yabangemalungisa, ukuze asisondeze kuye uThixo” (1 KaPetros 3:18).
- Ukuze asuse isigwebo kuthi: Isiphelo esikhulu sokubandezeleka nokufa kukaKristu sesi: “Ngoko ke, ngoku akukho kugwetywa kwabakuKristu Yesu” (KwabaseRoma 8:1). Ukuba “kuKristu” kuthetha ukuba nolwalamano naye ngokholo. UKristu waba sisohlwayo sethu (ukuze singanyanzeleki sisithwale ngokwethu) kunye nokufaneleka kwethu phambi koThixo (esingenako ukukuzuza ngokwethu). Ukufa kukaKristu kuqinisekisa inkululeko ukuze singagwetywa nje nokukholelwa ukuba uKristu usihlawulele isigwebo sethu esikukufa. Ngoko ke siqinisekile ukuba asinakugwetywa njengoko siqinisekile ukuba uKristu wafa!
