ISAZISO SOMHLELI

KULO MQULU WESINE

--------------

 

UDade wokuzalwa kukaYesu, njengoko sibonile kumqulu wesithathu, wayebhale ekupheleni kobomi bakhe, ngexesha apho wayengenakukwazi ukufumana imbalelwano kunye noMlawuli wakhe, iincwadana ezimbini ezinkulu zokudibanisa, okanye ukongeza kwezo zangaphambili . imiqulu emithathu. UM. Genêt, owanikelwa kuye le mibhalo ngowe-1802, ekubuyeni kwakhe eNgilani, ngoonongendi ababeyimfihlo bakaDade, owafa kwiminyaka emine kamva kwivumba lobungcwele, wathi, ethetha ngesi sihlomelo, ekwakusafuneka asenze. bhala, ukuba luhlobo lweDuteronomi kwiincwadana ezimbini, apho uDade ehamba phezu kwezinto ezininzi ebesele etshilo, kwaye ngenxa yoko uya kunyanzeleka ukuba ashunqule kakhulu, ngelixa egcina izimvo ezintsha kunye nophuhliso olubonakala lukhulu. ekufanelekele ukulondolozwa (1).

(1) Iminyaka esibhozo yokugqibela kaDade, ixesha lesine, 3rd vol. , pg. 452.

 

Kwakungokwemvelo ukugqiba kula mazwi kaM. Genêt (ongazange afe de kwangowe-1817, oko kukuthi kwiminyaka elishumi elinesihlanu emva kokubuya kwakhe eNgilani), ukuba wayewenze ngokwenene umsebenzi wakhe, yaye wongezelela kumsebenzi wakhe. inguqulelo efinyeziweyo yezi ncwadana zamanqaku zongezelelweyo. Kodwa enoba sasiyintoni na isizathu, ngokuqinisekileyo akazange akwenze oko. Lonke uphando lwethu ngalo mbandela alunamsebenzi.

 

 

(II)

Sinazo ezandleni zethu ezi ncwadana, kodwa azibhalwanga, kwaye njengoko zaziyalelwe nguDade woZalo. Siwabamba kwindawo yokugcina amaphepha kaMnu. Genet, owasinika wona njengenxalenye yawo wonke umsebenzi, othe waba yipropati yethu. Ukongezelela, uMama de Sainte-Magdeleine (uMkhulu nongomnye woonongendi ababini ababezithemba kuDade Wokuzalwa KukaYesu), wasithumelela ikopi yesibini, ayiqinisekisayo ukuba ichanile yaye iyinyaniso, njengoko siza kubona ekupheleni kwalo mqulu. .

Kuncanyathiselwe kwesi siqwenga sibalulekileyo, ubunyaniso baso obungenakuthandatyuzwa (1), sisenzo esiyinyaniso, esifike kuthi sivela kwintsapho kaM. , novakalisa iminqweno yakhe yokugqibela ngokunxulumene nezi ncwadana zamanqaku zongezelelweyo.

Nasi esi senzo, igama nelizwi, njengoko sathunyelwa kuthi.

“Ngosuku olungaphambi kokufa kwakhe (kukaDade woZalo), okanye kwiintsuku ezimbini ezidlulileyo, inenekazi eliselula elalinentembelo yalo, xa liye kumbona, lamxelela ngokukodwa oko lalisele likuxelele uMadam des Séraphins, ngoko ke. ukuba la mangqina mabini axelele uMnu. Genet ngako ekubuyeni kwakhe.

INkosi, yamxelela, yandazisa intando yayo kwezi ncwadi zingabhalwanga zokugqibela. Ngoko ke ukuthanda kwakhe kukuba zinikelwe kuMnu. Genet, okanye ukuba asilele, kuye nawuphi na omnye umlungiseleli weNkosi ozaliswe kwangaloo moya mnye, ukuze azibhale aze asuse kuzo zonke ezo azifumana zisisiphene. amagama okanye kumazwi, endihlala ndingayiva, okanye ekugqibeleni ngolwimi lwesiFrentshi, endingazange ndifunde.

KwiBandla kuphela, oko kukuthi, kubalungiseleli balo, bamelwe kukunikwa. Intando yeNkosi kukuba bangabonakali njengoko banjalo, kodwa babhalwe ngomoya ofanayo nomsebenzi.

“Njengoko ndingenayo enye intando ngaphandle kwaleyo kaThixo, nanjengoko ndifuna ukufa ndiyintombi ethobekileyo yeCawa yamaKatolika, yobuPostile neyamaRoma, le yiminqweno yam yokugqibela ke leyo, endiyithandazelayo, ukuba ndiyidlulisele eCaweni; oko kukuthi, kwabo balungiseleli bayo bazaliswa ngumoya wayo, bengathandi ukuba kubonakale nantoni na kum (okanye uThixo, osebenzisa isixhobo esingenamandla kangako ukufumana uzuko lwakhe), nto leyo engavunywanga ngulo ungcwele. Icawa. »

Ngokwale minqweno yokugqibela kaDade Wokuzalwa kukaYesu, sasicinga ukuba kwakungaphezu kwawo wonke umsebenzi wethu ukuba iincwadi zamanqaku kuthethwa ngazo zihlolwe. Ngenxa yoko, siye sangxamela ukunxibelelana nabo kwiiNtshumayeli ezininzi ezahlulwe ngeetalente zabo, ngobuhle bazo nangolwazi lwabo lwezakwalizwi.

Emva kovavanyo oluqolileyo kwabonakala ukuba, ukongeza kwingozi yokuguqula ingqiqo yombhali, ngokuzama ukuphinda uthintele okanye uhlengahlengise umbhalo wolu hlobo, kuya kuthi, kwelinye icala, kuhambelane ngakumbi nenyaniso, kwaye kwelinye, kuthandeka ngakumbi kumfundi, ukuba udade azithethelele; nokuba ukuba ukuthobeka kwakhe kwamkhokelela ekubeni afune ukuzigquma nokuzifihla phantsi kohlobo lokuphindaphinda okubolekiweyo, uzuko lukaThixo lwalufuna ukuba iingcinga zakhe zisiwe eluntwini ngaphandle kwemvulophu yasemzini. Ngaphandle koko, uDade ucela ukuba agwetywe ngabalungiseleli beNkosi kunye neCawa. Ngenxa yoko, imele iviwe yona ngokwayo; yaye ezi ncwadi zokugqibela, ezizezeyakhe ngokufanelekileyo, ziya kunceda ekugwetyweni ngawo wonke uMsebenzi; mhlawumbi kungenganjongo yokuba uThixo athande ukuba bona

Kwagwetywa ke ngoko ukuba abayi kuba. Ngaloo ndlela, sazibekela umda kwizinto ezazifuneka ngokwenene, ukuze sikwazi ukuzihambisa kushicilelo.

1°. Ukongeza kwinani elikhulu leempazamo zopelo, njengoko sinokuthelekelela, siye salungisa ezinye iintetho ezothusa kakhulu kulwimi, ezinye izakhiwo ezigwenxa, amagama athile aguqulelwe, alityelweyo, okanye aphindaphindwa ngokungeyomfuneko, mhlawumbi ngaphezulu ngempazamo yoonobhala kunokuba ngala Sister.

2°. Izinto ezithe saa ezincwadini zamanqaku, neziyalelwe ngulo Dade, njengoko zaziza zibonakalisa kuye, zahlanganiswa ngamanqaku aliqela ahlulwe ngeziqendu, anezihloko kunye namanqaku aseludinini.

Kodwa ezi zilungiso zincinci kunye noku kuhlanganisana kwezifundo kwinqaku elifanayo azitshintshanga nantoni na kwisitayile sikaDade, ngubani oya kufumana, kuyinyani, uhlala engenacala kwaye asasazeke (njengoko kufuneka kube ngulowo womzi ohlwempuzekileyo. U-Bretagne, othi yena akazange afunde ulwimi lwesiFrentshi), kodwa oko kuya kumkholisa umfundi, ngokugqithiseleyo ngokuxhamla kwayo, ubuqili kunye nokulula kwayo, njengamandla ayo, amandla ayo kunye nokuzithoba kwayo, ngakumbi xa uDade. uzama ukutyhila oko wayekufumanisa ekukhanyeni kukaThixo.

Ngaloo ndlela, kulo mqulu wokugqibela, uMdade Wokuzalwa kukaYesu uya kuzibonakalisa njengoko enjalo, engenasigqubuthelo nalifu; somva ethetha engenatoliki, engenamthetheleli; siya kuyazi; siya kumgweba.

Siza kuyigqiba le ngqokelela ngeeleta ezimbalwa awayezibhale uDade waze wazibhalela abo bavuma izono zakhe kwiminyaka yokugqibela yobomi bakhe, neziqulathe izinto ezibalulekileyo.

Okokugqibela, siqinisekisa kuphela yonke into equlethwe kulo mqulu, ngale ndlela, ukuba siqinisekisa ukuba ihambelana ngqo neencwadi.

imibhalo-ngqangi esele isezandleni zethu, nesilungele ukunxibelelana nabo beNtshumayeli abangathanda ukuyiqwalasela. Kwelinye icala, siyakuphepha ukuwisa isigwebo kule mibhalo-ngqangi. Sizinika uluntu njengoko zinxulunyaniswa nomsebenzi kaM. Genet, kwaye njengenxalenye enomdla kakhulu yemibhalo kaDade wokuZalwa. Sikholelwa ukuba siyifeze ngokwaneleyo iminqweno yakhe yokugqibela; kwaye kunye nayo sishiya esi songezelelo, njengemiqulu eyandulelayo, ekuhlolweni kwabefundisi bezakwalizwi nakumgwebo weBandla.

IMIBHALO YOKUGQIBELA IYALALELA NGU-LA, UDADE WOKUZALWA KWAKHE, KUNGEKUDE PHAMBI KOKUFA KWAKHE.

 

 

 

 

INQAKU LOKUQALA.

Iimpawu ezimangalisayo zobomi bukaDade, ezixelwe ngokwakhe.

§. I.

Ukukhanya okungaqhelekanga awakufumanayo uDade kuThixo kwasebuntwaneni bakhe bokuqala. Imibono eyenziwa emphefumlweni wakhe yimiyalelo yokuqala kamama wakhe.

 

Ndibuyela kumbandela endikholelwa ukuba ndiwuchaze ngokulula kakhulu komnye umqulu, kwaye ndiya kubalisa oko uThixo akubonakalisileyo kum. Ndikwenza oko ngenjongo yokuzazisa eBandleni, ukuze likwazi ukugweba enoba andikhohliswanga kuko konke ukukhanya okungaqhelekanga endibophelelekile ukuba ndikubhale.

 

Kwiminyaka emibini enesiqingatha uzifumana encokola namadoda amathathu anamathele kubomi bangoku.

Naku ukukhanya kokuqala okungaqhelekanga uThixo awandinika kona, ndisengumntwana, ndineminyaka emibini enesiqingatha neeveki ezimbalwa, njengoko iNkosi Yethu yandixelelayo, kuba ndandingazi ukuba ndandineminyaka emingaphi ubudala. Ndaba ke ndahlutha ingqondo, ukuze ndingazi nto kwaThixo, kwanokukaThixo; Bendingazi ukuba ngubani owandidalayo wandizisa emhlabeni.

Le nto yandehlelayo kwatata ndindodwa umntwana. Ngenye imini kwakukho amadoda amathathu endandingawazi konke konke; Andibonanga  utata nomama khona. Loo madoda omathathu ayehleli etafileni; bebesela, behleka kwaye bonwabile. Embindini wencoko yabo omnye kwaba bathathu uthi: Ah! hayi indlela ebesiya kuvuya ngayo ukuba asifanga! Ndandikufuphi nesihlalo, kufutshane nenye yala madoda, yayihleli esitulweni, namanye amabini  ajongene.

 

UThixo uzibonakalisa kuye ekwimo yengqukuva yomlilo.

Ndamamela ngokukhanya okungaphezu kwendalo koko la madoda akutshoyo: kwangaxeshanye ndabona emehlweni omzimba, kwaye ngakumbi emehlweni omphefumlo, kubonakala endlwini iglowubhu yomlilo enkulu njengomphanda. Yayixhonywe emoyeni, yaza yaphuma kuyo imitha ecocekileyo nethambileyo, kangangokuba yayingathi inento yokwenza nomnyama. Ngelo xesha, uThixo wathetha nam ephakathi kwesi sijikelezi-langa sokukhanya awayerhangqwe ngaso; ndandula ke ndawajika umva loo madoda mathathu, ndema phambi kwelizwi elo lalithetha nam laza lathi kum: “Phulaphula, mntwana wam oyintanda, okuthethwa ngala madoda; bathetha njengezidenge. Mna ndinguMdali wezulu nomhlaba

umhlaba; Ndadala zonke izinto: Ndadala ubukumkani obuhle ukuba ndibanike ilifa kubo; Ndibathathele abantwana bam, kwaye abafuni ukufa beze kum, ongabazalisa ngoyolo iwaka! »

 

Ndaqonda, ngala mazwi ambalwa, ukuba yayinguThixo wam, uMdali wam. Kobu buThixo buphakamileyo nobungangamsha, ndayibona le ndalo inkulu kangaka yabantu abanezidalwa uThixo awayezitsale kokungento waza wazamkela kubantwana bakhe. Ndabona ukuba zonke izidalwa ezinengqiqo zimfanele imbeko, uzuko, imbeko, uthando nombulelo; ukuba kufuneka bamhlawule irhafu yobu bomi bexeshana esinabo apha ngezantsi, ukuze basihlanganise naye ngothando lwakhe kunaphakade olumnandi, apho siya kuzaliswa ngolonwabo olungunaphakade kunye naye ebukumkanini bakhe. Ndandisazi ukuba eso siya kuba sisabelo sabo bathembekileyo kuye, yaye abo babenganyanisekanga kuye, yaye bengangqinelani nothando lwakhe, babeya kwahlulwa kuye, bangabi nasabelo naye ebukumkanini bakhe. ngamaxesha onke. Ndandingazi ngoko ukuba uThixo wayedalele abangendawo isihogo; Ndandikholelwa ukuba babeza kohlwaywa ngokwaneleyo ukuze bagxothwe kuThixo ngonaphakade.

Ngelixa ndandimangalisiwe yaye ndimangalisiwe yimimangaliso emininzi kangaka, uThixo waqhubeka ethetha nam, wathi kum ngothando oluthambileyo nolothando: “Nawe ke, mntwana wam, akufuni kufa ukuze ndikuhlanganise nam ngobubele bam. uthando, kulonwabo lobukumkani bam? Ngaloo mzuzu uThixo wayikhanyisa ukuqonda kwam kunye nayo yonke ingaphakathi lam ngokukhanya okuqaqambileyo kunye nothando olusulungekileyo noluthambileyo, kangangokuba ndaziva nditsaleleka kwaye ngokungathi ndithwalwe ebuThixo bakhe, ngeminqweno evuthayo kunye egqithisileyo yokufuna ukufa. ilixa lokuzimanya ngokupheleleyo noThixo wam.

 

Umnqweno wakhe wokufa ukuze amanyane noThixo.

Andizange ndiphendule ngamazwi acacileyo, kodwa kuphela ngeentshukumo kunye neminqweno yentliziyo yam, eyayivakalisa ngolu hlobo: "Nkosi yam, Thixo wam, musa ukulibala: konke ngaxeshanye. Ndiyazinikela, ndizinikele ngokupheleleyo kuwe, njengoko ndinjalo ngokomntu ondinike wona; Ndiyakunikela kuwe ngobomi bam, ndilungele ukufela apho ngoko nangoko ngenxa yothando lwakho kwaye ndizimanye nawe. Ndawathetha la mazwi ngenzondelelo eshushu, ndaza ndakholwa ukuba uThixo, olunge kakhulu, wayeya kundinika iminqweno yam ngalo mzuzu; kodwa ngelishwa ! UThixo undazise ukuba ilixa lalingekafiki; ukuba andiphe umthandazo wam; kodwa

 

(6-10)

 

 

ukuba ngaphambili kufuneka ndithembeke kwiinceba zakhe kwaye ndizinikele kwintando yakhe.

Owu Thixo! hayi indlela ekwakufuneka ndincame ngayo, kuba uThixo wayesafuna ukundikhulula! Ndithe ndibona ukuba uBuThixo uzakunyamalala emehlweni am, ndancama kulo mnqamlezo mkhulu ngenxa yothando lukaThixo, ndazincama kuye ngokupheleleyo ezintweni zonke, ndazimisela ukuphila kangangoko ethanda. Kwangoko uBungcwele wanyamalala ngokukhawuleza okombane. Nangona kunjalo, uThixo washiya ngaphakathi kwam ukukhanya okwandithwala phantse ngokuqhubekayo ukuya kuye ngeminqweno enobubele kunye nothando.

Ndiye ndafumana ithuba lokuqaphela izihlandlo ezininzi, ebudeni bobomi bam, ukuba uThixo wandinika, ukususela ngelo xesha ukuya phambili, ubabalo olubizwa ngokuba lubabalo olungenamsebenzi . Kukukukhanya awakhanyisela ngako ingaphakathi lam, yile nto ibisoloko indikhokela, kwaye kulapho uJC wabonakala kum amaxesha amaninzi, wathetha nam, wandibonisa, wandichazela kwaye wayalela ukuba ndibhale. . Mna, ukuthobela uThixo, ndibhala yonke into uThixo andiyalela yona ekukhanyeni kwakhe.

 

Ukuzondelela kwakhe uzuko lukaThixo nosindiso lwemiphefumlo.

Olu khanyiso lwenzeka kum, nangona ndandingumntwana obuthathaka: umgaqo wako uluzuko lukaThixo nosindiso lwemiphefumlo. Uzuko lukaThixo lwandichukumisa ukususela ebuntwaneni bam, kangangokuba ndandifuna kwaye ndinqwenele, ngenxa yozuko lukaThixo nothando lwakhe, ukufa imihla ngemihla ngeendidi eziliwaka zeentuthumbo, kwaye uThixo, ngamandla akhe. , ngendandivuswe kwangaloo mini, ukuze ngengomso ndiphinde ndibandezeleke nokufa, kangangokuba iminqweno yam yozuko lukaThixo yayinganeliseki. Ndakhwaza: Thixo olungileyo! Thixo wam! hayi usuku olunye okanye ezimbini, kodwa kude kube sekupheleni kobomi bam, Nkosi, okanye kanye kude kube sesiphelweni sehlabathi.

Nanku omnye umnqweno endandinawo, umnqweno owawutyekele ekuzondeleleni usindiso lwemiphefumlo (umgaqo wawuluthando lukaThixo) owathi iNkosi Yethu yawukhulula ngegazi layo elixabisekileyo; Ndinqwenela ukuba umzimba wam unqunyulwe ube ziingceba, kwaye iNkosi elungileyo yabaguqulela kwiilwimi ezininzi, eziye zasuswa kwaye zasasazwa kwindalo yonke, ukudanduluka ngokuvakalayo: Yenza inguquko, okanye uya kutshabalala nonke !

Imiyalelo yokuqala evela kumama wakhe; bavelisa iziqhamo emphefumlweni wakhe.

Xa ndandineminyaka emithathu okanye emine ubudala, andikwazi ukuchaza ngokuthe ngqo ukuba nguwuphi umama, owayengumKristu okhutheleyo oneminyaka emibini ubudala, owaqalisa ukundifundisa imithandazo yam. Xa wayendenza ndithi Bawo Wethu Osezulwini, ndathi entliziyweni: ngulo ndimbonileyo, othetha nam ngamanye amaxesha. Ndambuza umama ukuba kuthetha ukuthini oko, nokuba ngutata wethu; umama wathabatha eli thuba wandibalisela imfihlelo ethandekayo kaBathathu Emnye oNgcwele kunye nomanyano lwabaBantu abathathu abahlukeneyo, uYise, uNyana noMoya oyiNgcwele. Wandifundisa iimfihlelo zonqulo lwethu olungcwele, ngokundazisa ukuba uNyana wayengumntu wesibini kaBathathu Emnye Oyena Ungcwele; ukuba wenziwa inyama esibelekweni seNtombi Enyulu kangcwele; nokuba waba yindoda nomntwana omncinane njengathi sonke; ukuba unguthixo-mntu nothixo womntu; ekugqibeleni, wandiyalela kuyo yonke imfundiso yeCatechism kubantwana abancinci. Ndifumene le mfundiso iyathandeka, kwaye ndabona,

Umama wandifundisa ukuba kukho isihogo, ukuthuthunjiswa, needemon ezithuthumbisa abo bangafanelekanga, kwanokuba kukho iparadesi ezaliswe zizo zonke iintlobo zolonwabo, apho ubani anandipha uThixo ngonaphakade. Kwakhona wandazisa ukuba kwakuya kuba kuhle ababeza kwamkelwa kule ndawo yolonwabo, ingakumbi abo babemthanda uThixo ngentliziyo yabo yonke.

 

Uloyiko analo lokugwetywa.

Xa umama wayendicacisele ngezono ezahlukeneyo ezifayo nezibuhlungu, ngakumbi kwimithetho kaThixo kunye neyeCawa, ndafumanisa ilishwa elikhulu ukuba nangona umntu enentando elungileyo wayenako ukukhubekisa uThixo, ukulahleka kwaye aqalekise: yandenza lusizi ngaphakathi kum omncinane, kwaye kwakungenxa yolu nxunguphalo awathi uMtyholi waqalisa ukuhlasela kwakhe okokuqala kum ngokucebisa kum ngezimvo ezinamandla ukuba kwakungekho mfuneko yakuba ndivuye kangaka ndilindele ukubona uThixo; ukuba ndingasoze ndimbone, nokuba ndiya kuzenza zonke izono endizixelelweyo  .

Njengoko ukukhanya kokholo kwiinyaniso zevangeli kwakutyhilwe kum kuphela njengoko iimfihlelo zazichazwa kum, ngelo xesha usathana wayendilukuhla ngolu loyiko, ndandingazi ukuba uThixo olungileyo wamisa kwiBandla elingcwele likaMoya. iisakramente, ngakumbi naleyo yenguquko exolelanisa umoni noThixo xa enentliziyo eguqukileyo nethobekileyo. Yiyo loo nto kule ntlungu ingaka ndingafumani nto iqinileyo

ukuzithuthuzela. Ndandisoloko ndityhafile sesi sisongelo: Uza kugwetywa, awusoze umbone uThixo!

 

Umyalelo kanina ngomgwebo jikelele wandisa uloyiko lwakhe.

Kule ntlungu, kwenzeka ukuba umama wandiyala ukuba umphefumlo, ngelixa lokufa, ubonakale kumgwebo kaThixo, owagwebayo ngokoko onakho. wenze kakuhle okanye kakubi. Ngaphezulu kweentlungu zam, ndisebenzisa eli thuba, kwaye ndithi ngaphakathi kwam: Ngokuqinisekileyo,

 

 

( 11-15 )

 

 

kuba emva kokufa umntu uvela phambi koThixo ndiyamazi ndiyazi kakuhle ukuba uyandithanda ndozilahla ezinyaweni zakhe ndimcele uxolo ngentliziyo entle, ndimnyanzele kakhulu angavumi. andisayi kumahlula, anditsalele kuye ebukumkanini bakhe. Andizange ndiqonde ukuba ndiwela kwimpazamo, kuba ndandingekayalwa, kwaye isizathu sam sasingekabikho ngokwaneleyo. Le ngcinga yandithuthuzela yaza yandinika inkxaso enamandla nxamnye nedemon. Ndathi ndakufumana imiyalelo eyongezelelekileyo, ndayibona impazamo yam, ndacela uxolo kuThixo ngokuthobeka, ndaza ndavuma  .

 

Uloyiko lwakhe noloyiko lwakhe xa iindudumo zisitsho.

Kwenzeka oku kum ebudeni bexesha lentlungu: njengoko umama wayethethile kum ngomgwebo jikelele nangemiqondiso eyayiza kwandulelwa, ngeendudumo neenyikima zomhlaba ekuza kuthi kamva abonakale ngokubonakalayo ukuba agwebe abantu; kwaye njengoko idemon yayifake uloyiko olukhulu emphefumlweni wam ngokubhekisele kwiNkosi Yethu, ngokundinika rhoqo ukuqonda ukuba iya kundigweba; konke oku kwabangela ukuba kwabakho iindudumo nemibane, ndoyika; Ndathi ngaphakathi kum: Nasi isigwebo jikelele! nantsi iNkosi elungileyo izovela indigwebe mhlawumbi indihlukanise naye ngonaphakade!... uqhwithela ekoneni encinci yendlu, lindelani kuYehova; Ndandijonge emnyango okanye efestileni, ndingathi ndindindisholo, ukuba andiboni hayi

INkosi yethu iza, amehlo am ethe gqolo ejonge esibhakabhakeni. Sathi sakudlula uqhwithela, nemozulu izolile, ndaxhuma-xhuma, ndivuya kwaye ndisithi kum: Ayizukuba yinto yanamhlanje; iya kuba lelinye ixesha.

Ngokuhamba kwexesha kunye nesizathu, olu loyiko lwaphela njengoko ndandifunda ngcono kwaye umama waqala ukundithatha kunye naye kwi-mass kunye nekatekizim. Yayiseso sizathu nokukhanya kokholo kwandithabatha ngakumbi nangakumbi, kwaza kwandihlangula kuko konke uloyiko lobuntwana olwalungenasiseko, ukuze ndingene kwiinyaniso eziqinileyo ngakumbi  .

Ndinale nto ibhaliweyo ukuba ndiyazi kwabo bandikhokelayo ukuba andilahlekiswanga ngusathana.

 

§. II.

Udade, emva kokuba egcine imfihlo ixesha elide yonke into uThixo awayesebenza kuyo, unyanzelekile ukuba ayibhaqe kwaye ayibhale phantsi. Imibhalo yakhe yokuqala yatshiswa, kwaye emva kwentshutshiso ende ayivayo ngalo mbandela, uyibhale kwakhona.

 

Ndijongana apha ngeemfihlo ezingenakutshitshiswa endizigcinile ukususela ebuntwaneni bam de kube lixesha apho uThixo wayefuna ukuba ndiveze ingaphakathi lam ku-confessor wam; Ndisajamelene neentlungu ezabangelwa kum ngoonongendi abaliqela, ngokuyintloko ngowongamileyo nababini.

 

UDade ugcina imfihlo enzulu malunga nengaphakathi lakhe.

Ndiya kuthetha apha ukuba kufana nommangaliso, ukuba umntwana oneminyaka emibini enesiqingatha wayenokugcina imfihlelo engunaphakade ngayo yonke into eyenzekayo kuye, nangayo yonke into ayibonayo kuThixo, nakwizinto ezininzi ezibonakaliswa nguMsindisi wethu. xa ndandineminyaka esixhenxe okanye esibhozo, okanye esibhozo okanye esithoba ubudala. Andikwazi ukuphawula iminyaka echanekileyo; kodwa into endiyaziyo kukuba kwakusebuntwaneni bam. Zange ndixelele mntu ngayo. Ndandingasashukumi okanye ndahlukile kwabanye abantwana. Ndayigcina imfihlelo kangangokuba andizange ndithethe nelizwi elinye ngayo kumntu wam owayevuma izono, ngaphandle kokuba ndandivumile ukuba ndimkhubekisile uThixo ngombandela othile ophathelele ezi zinto zingaqhelekanga.

Ukuyicacisa indlela endiye ndaziphendulela ngayo ngezinto zam zangaphakathi ukusa kwinqanaba lokuba kubhalwe phantsi oko kwakusenzeka kum, mandithi emva konyaka okanye emibini emva kokuba ndivakalise izifungo zam zonqulo kwindawo yethu, ndandisakholelwa. ukuba lowo uvumayo axelelwe izono zakhe kuphela. Bendiya kucinga ukuba kuphosakele ukuba bendimchazele ngesazela sam, ngakumbi kuba bendikholelwa ukuba wonke umntu ukhokelwa zizibane ezifanayo nezam; kodwa lathi lakufika ilixa, uThixo wafumana indlela yokundazisa kulowo ndivumayo  .

 

Umelwe kukuthi akwazise oko akusebenzayo uThixo kuye.

Ngenye imini phambi komthendeleko wokuNyuka kweNkosi yethu, ndazibonakalisa ukuze ndivume. Ummangali, ngokuchasene nesiko lakhe, wandimisa okomzuzwana ukuze andishumayele ngoloyiso lweNkosi Yethu. Iintetho zabalungiseleli bakaThixo zazisoloko zindichukumisa. Uthe akuyeka ukuthetha, mna, ndingazi ukuba ndiza kuthini, ndingafuni nokuthetha, ndaphinda ndaphinda kwaloo mxholo wayewuqalile, ndaqalisa ukuthetha ngentshukumo yokuncoma uloyiso noloyiso. uvuyo olubangelwe kukuba iNkosi yethu ishiye umhlaba inyukele ezulwini. Umfundisi uyandiphulaphula kangangexesha elithile, aze athi kum: “Dadewethu, ndifuna ubuye uze kundifumana ngaloo mini, ukuze undinike ingxelo ngesazela sakho. Mna, ongazange ndiyenze ngaphambili, ndothuka kakhulu. Nangona kunjalo,

lo mbandela eNkosini Yethu, eyandinika ukuqonda ukuba yayikukuthanda kwayo.

Ndaya ke ngexesha elimisiweyo; Ndamnika ingxelo yako konke iNkosi elungileyo eyandiphefumlela ukuba ndimxelele. Ndathi xa ndiphumayo, u-confessor wam wandixelela ukuba kufuneka ndibuye kungekudala emva koko. Ndimenzele ubunzima obuninzi, ndityhola amaqhinga aliqela endiwacetyiswa ngusathana, engafuni ukuba ndiye kuvuma esi sihloko, esithi iza kuba ngunobangela wokugwetywa kwam. Xa ummeli wam wabona ukuba ndiyaqiqa, wandiyalela ukuba ndenze njalo. Ndathatha umhlala-phantsi ndinganelisekanga kangako. Idemon yandikhathaza ngakumbi kunakuqala. Ibaluleke ngantoni? I

ndabuyela ekuthobeleni, ndaza ndanikela ingxelo enjengoko wayefunwa nguThixo. Ngaphambi kokuba ndirhoxe, ndambongoza ngenyameko ukuba andikhulule kumyalelo wakhe, ukuze ndingabi sanyanzeleka ukuba ndimxelele ngesazela sam; yandibangela intlungu engathethekiyo kwiidemon ezingaphakathi kwam. Lo mvumi ulungileyo wasamkela isicelo sam, nto leyo eyandinika ulwaneliseko. Zayeka iidemon ukuba zibe neenkani zokulwa nam. Ndazibona ndiseluxolweni nesiqu sam. Oku kwathabatha malunga neenyanga ezimbini, ekupheleni kwako oko iNkosi Yethu, kuMthendeleko wam, yandiyalela ngokungqongqo ukuba ndiye kunikela ingxelo ngesazela sam kulowo wayevuma izono zam, kangangoko wayecinga ukuba kufanelekile, ndize ndimxelele egameni lakhe ukuba uya kunikela ingxelo ngesazela sam kummangaleli wam. wandiyalela ukuba. Wandamkela ngobubele; kwaye yandenza ukuba ndiqonde ukuba kwakuyimfuneko ngokupheleleyo kuzuko lukaThixo nosindiso lomphefumlo wam; ukuba mandikhokelwe ngumtyholi wam, hleze ndikhohliswe ngumtyholi. Ukususela ngoko bendisoloko ndithobela phantsi kwesikhokelo sam abavumayo.

Ngaphambi kokuba athathe umhlala-phantsi, ummeli wam wandixelela ukuba uya kundikhathaza kancinane kangangoko, ngenxa yomsebenzi wasekuhlaleni; ukuba kwakuyimfuneko ukuya kuvuma izono ngeeCawa okanye ngeeholide, yaye wongezelela ngelithi ukuba ndandikwazile ukubhala, wayeya kundinyanzela ukuba ndenjenjalo.

Kwiminyaka elishumi ukuya kwelishumi elinanye engumalathisi kwindawo yethu, ndamxelela ngesazela sam. Wathathwa kuthi nguBhishophu wethu, ukuba abe ngumfundisi. Ngaphambi kokuba andishiye, wandiyalela ukuba ndinike ingxelo ngesazela sam kuye nabani na oya kuza esikhundleni sakhe, yaye kwangokunjalo nakubo bonke abanye emva kwakhe.

 

Omnye wabavumisi bakhe wamnyanzela ukuba abhale phantsi oko uThixo amxelele kona ngaphakathi.

Ke kaloku, akuba erhoxile ngokokuqala, ndathetha nam kulowo ubengene esikhundleni sakhe. Kungekudala emva koko, wandiyalela ukuba ndiye kumfumana emfihlakalweni, ukuba nje ndandifuna imvume kumphathi wam, kuba wayefuna ukubhala ingxelo yesazela sam; kodwa ngelishwa ! akuthathanga xesha lide. Andiyi kubalisa apha yonke imiqobo, bonke ubunzima obubangelwa kumacala omabini, kunye nokucaphuka okwavelayo. Ndabona kuThixo ukuba bavuswe kum ziidemon zodwa. Kananjalo uThixo wandiyalela ukuba ndiqhubeke ndibhala, kuba oko kube kukuthanda kwakhe. Kwanyanzeleka ukuba sizimise iintetho zethu kangangexesha elithile. Kwesi sithuba kwafika uMvangeli wasemazweni eze kusenzela ukurhoxa. Umchazi wam wandibeka ezandleni zakhe ngeli xesha lokurhoxa, waza wathi mandimchazele ngesazela sam. Kwelakhe icala, akashiyanga nto inokumyalela ukuba enze zonke

iinkathazo nazo zonke iinzima ezathi zavela ekuhlaleni, zathi zakubona ukuba ndithatha ixesha elide kwi-confesional; kwaye wambonisa isiqalo semibhalo esasiyibhale kunye.

Ekupheleni kokurhoxa uMvangeli wasemazweni wathi kum: Ndifuna ngokwenene ukuba ubhale, kwaye ndiyakuyalela ukuba wenze njalo. Ukuba igosa lakho likuyalela ngenye indlela, uze ungalithobeli, kuba umyalelo wam uphezu kwawo. Ndammela ngokuzithoba ukuba kukho oonongendi abazakuyiqaphela le nto, kwaye iseza kubangela ingxaki ekuhlaleni. Umvangeli wasemazweni wandiphendula wathi kwakufuneka kuhanjwe ngorhatya, emva komsebenzi wasekuhlaleni, naxa oonongendi berhoxile kwizisele zabo, okwenzeka ngentsimbi yesibhozo ngokuhlwa. Wandinika imvume ukusuka kwisibhozo ukuya kwishumi kuphela.

 

Intshutshiso ayifumanayo kwesi sihlandlo.

Kodwa ngelishwa ! enjani yona intlekele ayenzileyo uMtyholi! waphakamisa oonongendi abathandathu okanye abasixhenxe ukuba bandijonge kwaye bandibeke iliso kum kwiindawo ezininzi ezijikeleze i-confessional. Kwelinye icala, iidemon zazalisa ingqondo nentelekelelo yam ngoloyiko noloyiko, zisithi ndimcaphukise uThixo olungileyo, yaye ndamnika ithuba lokumkhubekisa. I-confession yam yayisoloko indenza ndiqhubeke, yaye idemon yayisebenza ecaleni kwayo ukuze indithintele ekubhaleni.

Iidemon, ngobuqhetseba bazo, zasebenzisa oonongendi abaliqela abangaphumliyo nabafuna ukwazi abathi, njengoko besenditshilo, bazimanya nabadala abambalwa abanobuntu obunye. Ishwangusha kukuba eyam yayichasene nabo. Iidemon zandula ke zoyisa kukubona loo cabal intle kangaka isebenzela iingenelo zazo, yaye azizange zikwazi ukuzibamba ekuboniseni ulwaneliseko lwazo kum ngokundigculela kwazo.

Ngenye imini ndandisandula ukubhala,

 

 

(21-25)

 

 

ndiphuma kwigumbi lokuqala lezobuvumo, ndadibana needemon ezimbini okanye ezintathu emnyango, ezazilalele kanye njengoonongendi xa beze kundiphulaphula. Ndathi ndakubona iidemon ndothuka kakhulu.

Ndema phambi kwabo ukuze ndibone ukuba iya kuba yintoni na. Baqala ukundixelela: Nokuba ungazama kangakanani na, ufunyenwe kwaye siya kukuyeka ukubhala. Ngumntu onjalo, esimsebenzisayo, oza kukuphulaphula. Emva koko baqalisa ukundihleka ngokuchukumiseka okukhulu kwaye ngamandla kangangokuba baqengqelekelana. Ndabuya umva kubo ndidelela ndisithi bangamaxoki lento bayenzayo kukundoyikisa qha.

 

Umyalelo wokuyeka ukubhala.

Ndamxelela konke oku kummeli wam, owandixelela ukuba kwakusoloko kuyimfuneko ukuqhubeka. Oonongendi endithethe ngabo babhala ileta ngokwendlela yobuntu babo bengamazi uPhakamileyo, yaza le leta yathunyelwa kuMphathi Omkhulu. Ngenye imini, ngaphambi kokuba impendulo ifike kumvumisi, ndadibana nowayesakuba ngunongendi owayekhokela le cabal yaye lowo idemon yayindibize ngokuba ngulowo wayendiphulaphula. Ndayithetha le nto kummeli wam, waphendula wathi: Dadewethu, masiyeke ukubhala; Ndiza kuthumela ileta kuMphathi oMkhulu. Ngelo xesha, ummeli wam wafumana imiyalelo yokuba ayeke ukubhala; kuba oko bekushiyiwe konke.

Nangona ndandisisigculelo nesigculelo ngoonongendi endithethe ngabo, ndavuya ndaza ndakholelwa ngokuqinileyo ukuba konke oko kudlule ngonaphakade. I-confessor yam yahlaselwa ngokuyingozi sisifo sokugula; Ndandisoyikela ukuba amaphepha awayewaphethe ezandleni zakhe angawela kubazali bakhe ababengabantu behlabathi, ndikhumbula ukuba kukho iziqendwana ezithile kule mibhalo ezazingabafanelanga nangayiphi na indlela abantu behlabathi.

 

Imibandela equlethwe kwimibhalo. Zitshisiwe.

Kusenokubakho imibhalo emibini okanye ngaphezulu yephepha, enezinto ezininzi malunga nemicimbi yangoku. Kwakhona kwakukho izinto ezininzi ezazichaphazela umama wethu iBandla elingcwele, kwaye ezazinomdla ngakumbi kubefundisi beNkosi. Kwakusekho incwadana engothando lukaThixo, eyayichaza umahluko phakathi kothando olunyulu lukaThixo nozuko lwakhe olunyulu oluvela eluzukweni nasekuzithandeni. Uthando olunyulu lukaThixo lwalunento yokwenza neNgoma yazo iiNgoma.

Ngenye imini, xa ndikunye nomchasi-tyala wam, ndamxelela ngoloyiko lwam, ndisithi kuye: “Bawo, ndicinga ukuba kuya kuba bhetele ukuzitshisa ezi zibhalo. Ngu

waphendula wathi wayecinga ngale ndlela ndandicinga ngayo, kwangaloo ngokuhlwa kanye wawafaka emlilweni. Kungekudala emva kokuba efile.

Kwidolophu yethu kwakukho umfundisi owayeyazi le mibhalo kuba wayeyibonisile. Wathi akuva ukuba yonke into itshisiwe, waba buhlungu ekungekho nto inokuyibonakalisa. Wayezimisele ukuyihlutha emva kokusweleka komchasi wam.

 

Yintoni uDade asokolayo ngalo mbandela koonongendi, uPhakamileyo kunye nabavumayo.

Oh Thixo wam! Ngaba kunokwenzeka ukuba ndikwazi ukuchaza iminqamlezo, ukuthotywa kunye nokuthotywa kwehlazo endimele ndibandezeleke, kokubini kuluntu kunye nakwabavumayo. Emva koko kwafika umfundisi oselula njengoMlawuli woLuntu. Umphathi welo xesha waye wabuza uBhishophu. Ibinguye ke owaligcina eli yelenqe bendithethe ngalo apha ngasentla, ebebhalele u Majoro ukuba ayeke ukubhala. Kwangethuba wabethelela iimvakalelo ngakum kulo mntu umtsha, ngokoluvo lwakhe ngabo.

Ngenye imini xa ndandijongile isigulana kwigumbi labagulayo, lo Mlawuli wandicela ukuba ndilale kumandlalo kule ndawo yokunyamekela abagulayo. Wayecinga ukuba ndilele, kwaye ngelishwa kwakungenjalo. Kwakukho naye kuphela abancedisi bexesha elidlulileyo, ababendimamele kwi-confessional, kunye no-confessor omtsha, owayeze kuncedisa umfazi owayesifa. Ndibe nelishwa lokuva uxolo lwam. Elowo kubo wabalisa ibali lakhe ngoko akubonileyo nakuvayo; kodwa yena uPhakamileyo wayesazi ngakumbi, nangona wayengazi nto iyinyani kwaye eyinyani malunga nengaphakathi lesazela sam, kuba uThixo wayeyalele kum. Ndayiva yonke incoko; kodwa eyona nto yayindiva kakhulu intliziyo yam, ndamva endixelela ukuba yintoni na oPhezulu wam waye wafunda kum, nangona ndandimcenga, eguqe ngamadolo omabini, ejonge phantsi, ukuba akufihle oko akuvileyo. Ukuba nje umrhanelwa wayekho, ngekungazange kundichaphazele njengokuba ndimva ephindaphinda oonongendi abahlanu okanye abathandathu, abathi xa bebonke bahlekisa. Oyena uPhakamileyo wacenga kumxolisi ukuba ndingaziphathi ngendlela efanayo naleyo yangaphambili, nokuba makandimamele kuphela ukuze avume; leyo umxeleli ayenze kakuhle kakhulu ekusebenzeni. Emva kokuva zonke ezi ntetho ndandikude kakhulu ekuvuleleni ingaphakathi lam kuye, ngaphandle kokuba kwakukho okukhulu ukuba akufihle oko wakuvayo. Ukuba nje umrhanelwa wayekho, ngekungazange kundichaphazele njengokuba ndimva ephindaphinda oonongendi abahlanu okanye abathandathu, abathi xa bebonke bahlekisa. Oyena uPhakamileyo wacenga kumxolisi ukuba ndingaziphathi ngendlela efanayo naleyo yangaphambili, nokuba makandimamele kuphela ukuze avume; leyo umxeleli ayenze kakuhle kakhulu ekusebenzeni. Emva kokuva zonke ezi ntetho ndandikude kakhulu ekuvuleleni ingaphakathi lam kuye, ngaphandle kokuba kwakukho okukhulu ukuba akufihle oko wakuvayo. Ukuba nje umrhanelwa wayekho, ngekungazange kundichaphazele njengokuba ndimva ephindaphinda oonongendi abahlanu okanye abathandathu, abathi xa bebonke bahlekisa. Oyena uPhakamileyo wacenga kumxolisi ukuba ndingaziphathi ngendlela efanayo naleyo yangaphambili, nokuba makandimamele kuphela ukuze avume; leyo umxeleli ayenze kakuhle kakhulu ekusebenzeni. Emva kokuva zonke ezi ntetho ndandikude kakhulu ekuvuleleni ingaphakathi lam kuye, ngaphandle kokuba kwakukho okukhulu Oyena uPhakamileyo wacenga kumxolisi ukuba ndingaziphathi ngendlela efanayo naleyo yangaphambili, nokuba makandimamele kuphela ukuze avume; leyo umxeleli ayenze kakuhle kakhulu ekusebenzeni. Emva kokuva zonke ezi ntetho ndandikude kakhulu ekuvuleleni ingaphakathi lam kuye, ngaphandle kokuba kwakukho okukhulu Oyena uPhakamileyo wacenga kumxolisi ukuba ndingaziphathi ngendlela efanayo naleyo yangaphambili, nokuba makandimamele kuphela ukuze avume; leyo umxeleli ayenze kakuhle kakhulu ekusebenzeni. Emva kokuva zonke ezi ntetho ndandikude kakhulu ekuvuleleni ingaphakathi lam kuye, ngaphandle kokuba kwakukho okukhulu isidingo.

Ndihleli iminyaka elishumi elinambini kwesi sikhundla, ndingenalo nolona kuzithemba kuvumayo okanye kuMkhulu, kwaye

 

 

(26-30)

 

 

ndandisoloko ndingcungcuthekiswa ziidemon, ezazibonakala zidlala nam ibhola. NguThixo yedwa oyaziyo into endiye ndabandezeleka kuyo ngoonongendi abaliqela, ngakumbi ngelixesha ndandiphantsi kolwalathiso lwalo Phantsi. Kodwa eyona nto yayibuhlungu kum yayizingcikivo zabavumayo kunye nokudideka ababendongamela ngako: kwakubonakala ngathi uMsindisi wam ongcwele.

ngokwakhe kumdlalo, endinika imiyalelo kwizinto ezahlukeneyo athe wazizisa kum. Yiya, utsho uYehova kum, ndikuwisele umthetho wokuba uye kuxela kuye lowo uvumayo. Ndaqiniseka kakhulu ukuba ndiza kwamkelwa kakubi kakhulu, kwaye ukuba akayi kundiphulaphula ngokuzithandela: yintoni eyayibalulekile? Bendihamba. Umbhexeshi wandiphulaphula emva koko wathi kum: Hamba uye kuxela loo nto kumntu wakho ovumayo. Wayengumbhexeshi webutho loonongendi: wayerhabaxa njengenkunzane, mhlawumbi ekuvumeni izono okanye xa ndandimnika ingxelo yobungaphakathi bam; nto leyo yenza buthathaka kakhulu ukuzithemba kwam kuye; Ndazibhekisa kuye kuphela ngenxa yengqiqo nokholo olunyulu. Iidemon zihlala zindikhathaza ukuba ndimshiye, zindixelela ukuba ukuvuma ukuba Bendisenza kuye bekukubi. Ukuba bendinokubuzisa kuThixo, ndabona ukuba kuya kuba buhlungu kum ukumtshintsha; ukuba wayesazi imiphefumlo ngokugqibeleleyo; nokuba wayengumbingeleli ongumzekelo ekuhloneleni kwakhe, nokuba wayenolwazi namava. Kungenxa yoko le nto, phezu kwako nje ukuphikisana naphezu kwezilingo zomtyholi, ndagqitha kuyo yonke into, ndaza ndaqhubeka ndisiya kuye de kwafika ixesha uThixo awayeyalele ngalo ngenye indlela  .

 

INkosi yethu iyamnyanzela ukuba abhengeze kumvumi wakhe ngoVukelo lwaseFransi kunye nengqumbo eyayiza kwenziwa kuBawo wethu Oyingcwele uPopu.

Nantsi into eyenzekayo kum kakhulu. INkosi yethu yandazisa ngemeko apho iFransi yayiza kuncitshiswa sisizwe, kunye nengcinezelo eyayiza kubamba uBawo wethu Oyingcwele uPopu, ukusa kwinqanaba lokumhlutha amandla akhe. INkosi yethu yandinyanzela ukuba ndiye kunikela ingxelo ngayo kulowo wayevuma izono zam, owathi, emva kokuba eve amazwi amabini okanye amathathu, wathi kum: “Dadewethu  ,

hamba uye kuxelela ummeli wakho ngokungaqhelekanga, oza kufika apha ngolo suku.

 

Umchazi uyamala; ukholelwa ukuba ungumJanseni; wenza uvumo jikelele.

Ndaya kumhla omisiweyo, ndaza ndathetha ukuba lo wavuma ukuphanziswa kweFransi: kodwa xa ndandikhankanya ingcinezelo yoBawo Oyingcwele, uhlanga olwaluza kuwahlutha kuye amandla akhe, wadanduluka ngendlela yokoyikisa. mna

: Hlehla, akhonto imbi ozakundixelela yona. Ndicinga ngale nto wayendixelele yona, ndisazi ukuba ndimxelele izinto ezimbi kuphela, andizange ndiliqonde ngokupheleleyo eli gama limbi ., ibe ndandicinga ukuba wayendixelela ukuba ndingumJanseni. Ngoko ke ndabuhlolisisa ubomi bam bonke nehambo yam ngeendlela ezibalaseleyo, yaye ndazigqala njengeendlela zamaJansens, ngaphandle kokudimazeka. Noko ke, ndandizigqala njengomntu oqhathiweyo, nowayenganqweneli oko, ngendlela yamaJansens. Eh. KULUNGILE! Ndazixelela ukuba uYehova uya kundisizela. Nantsi inkohliso yam ebhengeziweyo, ndiyayibona; Ndiya kwenza uvumo jikelele lwazo zonke izikhanyiso zobuxoki ezilahlekise ingqondo yam; Ndiya kuyilahla, ndize ndohlwaye ngenxa yayo bonke ubomi bam. Ndiye ndahamba ndayomfumana u confessor eberhabaxa, endithethisa kakhulu ngokumxelela izinto ezimbi. Ndamxelela ukuba ndifuna ukwenza isivumo jikelele, kuba ndicinga ukuba ndikhohlisiwe. Wavuma ngokuzithandela. Ndazimangalela, ngokwenkolelo yam, kuzo zonke izikhanyiso zobuxoki, ngazo zonke izinto ezingaqhelekanga, nangenxa yazo zonke izinto endizikholelwayo ukuba ziyimpazamo kum, ndagqiba kwelokuba ndizilahle zonke izinto. ngokungaqhelekanga.

 

UThixo umnika izikhanyiso ezikhulu;

Oku koko kwenzeka kum emva kokuvuma izono ngokubanzi; kodwa yintoni enokuyenza isidalwa xa uMdali esiyalela kwaye esilawula! Emva kokuvuma kwam isono, kwabonakala ngathi uThixo wayeyoliswa kukundinika imbonakalo emnandi ngakumbi yobukho bakhe, nangokundenza ndizibone ngokucacileyo zonke izinto awayefuna ukuzenza zaziwe.

UMsindisi wethu ongcwele wayeyazi kakuhle indlela yokugxotha kwinkumbulo yam zonke izindululo endandizithathile kwisivumo sam, kunye nazo zonke iingcinga endandilahlekiswa ngazo ezi ndlela zingaqhelekanga. Xa lo Msindisi ungcwele weza, ngesiphumo sothando lwakhe oluthambileyo, ukuba andibize ngomntwana wakhe, kwandichukumisa ngokunzulu kangangokuba ndazinikela kuye ngokupheleleyo ukuze ndenze kwaye ndibandezeleke.

nantoni na emkholisayo. Le ngcinga yandikhuthaza ngamandla kuThixo, kangangokuba ndaziva ngathi ndingokaThixo ngokupheleleyo, kwaye uThixo wazinikela yonke into kum.

 

Emva kweminyaka elishumi elinesibini yokubandezeleka, yonke into iyatshintsha malunga noDade. Ubhale kwakhona.

Ebudeni beminyaka elishumi elinesibini eyadlulayo phantsi kokhokelo lwaba bavumisi babini, omnye ethambile kwaye omnye engqongqo, ndandisoloko ndisentlungwini kwaye ndisilwa, ndingenamntu wokwabelana naye ngeentlungu zam, kwaye ndinobuganga bokuzibhengeza: nokuba ngabavumayo bam, okanye kubaphathi bam. Kodwa ngequbuliso uThixo watshintsha izinto ngam. Okokuqala, ndazifumana ndisezandleni zomntu ophakamileyo endandithembele ngaye. Kubantu bethu ababini ababesivumile isono, omnye wasishiya, yaye omnye wagula waza wafa. Kweza njengomlawuli wendawo yethu umfundisi wevangeli owayenolwazi oluninzi, imfundiso kunye namava: umphathi wam wandibongoza ukuba ndimnike ukuzithemba kwam kwaye ndizazise kuye. Andizange ndibe nangxaki yokuyenza, kuba nguThixo owandenzayo

 

 

(31-35)

 

 

ukuvakalelwa kukuba yayikukuthanda kwakhe, yaye, ngokungathi kunjalo, oko uThixo wayendigcinele kona. Andizange ndichithe xesha emva kokufika kwakhe ndazazisa kuye. Okukhona ndithetha naye, kokukhona ndiziva ndikhululeka okuthile ekumvuleleni imbilini yam, nasekumxeleleni yonke into ngokuzithemba okukhulu. Wafuna kuqala ukuba ndivume izono ngokubanzi. Ndammela kuye ukuba andiziva ndiyidinga. Waphendula wathi kwakuyimfuneko kuye, ukuze endazi ngakumbi. Ukuvuma kwam ukwenza, wandiyalela ukuba ndimnike ingxelo yesazela sam, kuba wayefuna ukubhala yonke into endiyithethayo kuye, wongezelela ngelithi ayikho enye into endiyikhathaleleyo ngaphandle kokuthobela. Ah! Ndaye ndaqonda ukuba yayiyiyure iNkosi eyayizigcinele yona ukwenza umsebenzi wayo (1),

(1) Phantse eli libali likaMnu. Genet, umhleli wemiqulu emithathu yokuqala. Kuyakumkholisa umfundi ukuva uDade eyixelela ngokwakhe.

 

Phantse yonke imihla ndandisiya kukhangela ummeli wam ukuze siqhubeke nomsebenzi wethu; wathatha amanqaku kuphela kwinto endiyithethileyo kuye; emva koko, nokuba kusemini okanye ebusuku, wayebhala aze ahlele imicimbi endandimcacisele yona. Sahamba ngamandla amakhulu, phezu kwayo nje imimoya evuthuzayo nezaqhwithi ezazisihlasela, esathi usathana wasixhokonxa ngoosisi ababini okanye abathathu abaleleyo, bazinikela ukuba bandihlole bandilandele kuyo yonke indawo. Omnye wabo wayenokuphulukana nentloko yakhe ngenxa yomona nomdla wokwazi ukuba ndiza kwenza ntoni okanye ndithini kulowo uvumayo. Ngaphezu koko, wayendihlola xa ndandisiya kubona umphathi. Konke oku kwakungenxa yezikhalazo zakhe ezimbi, nto leyo eyakhokelela ekubeni andenze umothuko ngokwasemphefumlweni, hayi ngasese kuphela, kodwa naphakathi kwabantu. Wandigabha yonke into idemon eyayimcebisa ngayo emphefumlweni wakhe; kodwa yintoni! Ndandisoloko ndiphuma ekuthobeleni, kwaye ndixhaswa ngummeli wam kunye nomphathi wam. Ndithe xa ndisiya kuvuma ityala lam ngorhatya, wandikhapha uMphathi wam wayohlala emnyango wezobuvuvuvuvuvuvuvuvu, ndisoyika ukuba kungafika umntu ozondimamela; ukuba ishishini liyamthintela, wayebeka unongendi othembekileyo owayesemfihlweni.

 

Umntu ovumayo unyanzelekile ukuba abaleke. Umsebenzi uphazamisekile; kodwa bamthumelela imibhalo eyayibhalwe ngulo Dade kunongendi omthembileyo.

Ngaphantsi kweenyanga ezisixhenxe okanye ezisibhozo umsebenzi wethu wawusele usele ugqityiwe; kodwa ngelishwa! Izidubedube zesizwe zanyanzelela ukuba ummeli wethu asabe. Wahlala eFransi kangangexesha elithile, yaye wandiyalela ukuba ndiyibhale ngunongendi othembekileyo, nangomyalelo womphathi wam; into esiyenzileyo. Sathi sakuba sibhale isixa esithile esincinane, sasidlulisela kuye kuloo ndawo wayedla umhlala-phantsi kuyo.

Isizwe sakuba simkhuphile eFransi, waya eNgilani, apho samthumela khona imibhalo yethu, ukuba nje sasifumene indlela; kodwa kungekudala akuzange kuthunyelwe nto, yaye saxelelwa ukuba singaphindi sithumele enye into. Emva kokuba iphakheji encinci ilungile, umama wethu wathi kum: Dadewethu, andizukuyiphatha le phakheji, ndoyika kakhulu ukugqogqwa kunye nokugrumba kwesizwe, ndiyitshise, okanye ndiyigcine, ndicela. Ndayigcina.

Nantsi into ethile, eyayibonisa ukuba uThixo wawukhusela umsebenzi. Kwiintsuku ezilishumi elinesihlanu okanye iiveki ezintathu emva koko, ngenye intsasa yangoMgqibelo xa ndandiphambi koMthendeleko oSikelelweyo, iNkosi yethu yathi kum ngelizwi eliqinileyo: Hamba uye kuthabatha ipasile yakho kwaye uyithumele ngokukhawuleza. Ndiyahamba kwangoku, ndiyobasa

imibhalo, ndiya kuMkhulu wam, ndithi kuye: Umama, iNkosi ithethe into enje kum; nantsi ipakethe, nceda uyithumele. Umphathi wam wayenza kwangoko into awayeyithethile iNkosi. Ipakethe yadlula ngovuyo kangangokuba, emva kokuba sixelele u-confessor wethu ukuba kukho amashiti akwipakethe, esinokukuvuyela ukuwabuyisela xa sele ewabhalile, ethubeni afika ekhuselekile amashiti esasiwacelile. ekudluleni.

Sibona ukuba usebenze kakuhle, sathi: Kusafuneka sibhale phantsi oko sikwenzileyo ngokwenene. Kwiintsuku ezisibhozo kamva sabuyisela enye incwadi; kodwa safumanisa ukuba oomatiloshe babebophelelekile ukuba baphose elwandle iinyanda zoonobumba ezininzi, namanye amaphepha abalulekileyo.

Ngelishwa incwadi yethu yayiyenye yazo: ummeli wasibhalela ukuba akafumananga nto. Ngokwale saziso asiphindanga sabhala.

 

§. III.

INkosi yethu ibonakala kuDade ngeendlela ezahlukeneyo nangeendlela ezahlukeneyo.

 

Ndinika ingxelo apha ngendlela iNkosi Yethu eyabonakala ngayo kum ngeendlela ezahlukeneyo naphantsi kweemo ezahlukahlukeneyo, ngaphandle kokubonisa phantse nantoni na kwiimvakalelo zangaphandle.

Ndibuyela kwakhona ebuntwaneni bam bokuqala, ukwenza iBandla liqhelane ngcono nendlela endakhokelelwa ngayo.

 

 

 

(36-40)

 

 

Indlela iNkosi yethu yabonakala ngayo kuDade.

Xa iNkosi Yethu yabonakala kum ineminyaka emibini enesiqingatha ubudala, lo mbono wawubonakala kwiimvakalelo zangaphandle kunye nomphefumlo. Khange ndiyibone ngokucacileyo iNkosi yethu: Ndibone ngeemvakalelo zangaphandle kuphela iglowubhu yokukhanya ejikeleze ubuThixo. Kuzo zonke iimbonakalo, kwanasebuntwaneni bam, kuko konke eyandixelela kona iNkosi yethu,

okanye ndenziwa ukuba ndive, xa wayendihambisa apha naphaya ngomoya kunye naye, kwaye ngokubanzi kuyo yonke loo nto ingaqhelekanga yenzeka kum, izivamvo zomntu oqhelekileyo azibanga nanxaxheba kuyo, okanye kwaphela. Ngokomzekelo, xa ndabona iNkosi yethu, kungekhona ngamehlo omzimba. Xa ethetha nam, yayingezondlebe zomzimba ezimvayo, yayingumphefumlo wam nokuqonda kwam, ngokufutshane, ingaphakathi lam lonke.

 

Wayedla ngokubonakala kuye ekwimo yombingeleli.

Ndiza kuthetha nangeefomu apho iNkosi yethu yabonakala kum izihlandlo ezininzi. Ngokomzekelo, xa idemon yandihlasela ebuntwaneni bam, iNkosi yethu yabonakala kum izihlandlo eziliqela phantsi komfanekiselo womfundisi onxibe ialb ebhinqe intambo, Ubusela bawela esifubeni, ekugqibeleni njengomfundisi owayeza kunxiba bhiyozela iMisa eNgcwele. Ndithe ndimbona nje ndabaleka ndaya kuye. Iingubo zakhe zazinobuhle, zimhlophe, kangangokuba zasasaza ukukhanya okukhulu ngeenxa zonke kuye.

INkosi yethu yathetha nam ngemilo endandinayo nekwakufuneka ndiyixhase ngokuchasene needemoni. Wandiyala, wathi kum, Yiphakamisele kum intliziyo yakho, nomoya wakho; Ndincede mntanam ndikukhusele ndikuxhase ekulweni. »

Ndimbonile izihlandlo ezingaphezu kwamashumi amabini efanekiselwa ngumbingeleli, njengoko besenditshilo. Yayibalulekile. Yandikhuthaza, eneneni, uzuko olukhulu, imbeko enzulu nokuhlonelwa okukodwa kubalungiseleli beNkosi; kwaye njengoko iNkosi yethu yayisazi ukuba ndiza kuba nemicimbi emininzi endiya kuyithetha nabo, yayifuna ukuba ndigcinwe kulo lonke uthando lomntu kunye nayo yonke intlonipho yomntu, anditsho kuphela ekuvumeni izono, kodwa ngakumbi kudliwano-ndlebe ukuba ndiya kunyanzeleka ukuba ube nabo wedwa. UThixo wayefuna ndingaze ndinxibe nantoni na yomntu apho, kodwa ndibabone kuThixo, noThixo kubo.

 

Wayesoloko ebonakala kuye ekwimo yakhe yendalo, kwaye ngokufuthi ngakumbi wayethetha naye ngaphandle kokuzibonakalisa kuye.

INkosi yethu ibisoloko ibonakala kum ikwimo yayo yendalo, kwaye nanjengoko yayikubomi bayo basemhlabeni kunye nabaPostile bayo. Wathetha nam ngokuphindaphindiweyo, engakhange abonakale kum kwaye ndingaboni nto, kuphela ukuva nokuziva entliziyweni yam indlela yobukho bakhe obunobuntu, njengoko umntu evakalelwa, umzekelo, ubukho bomhlobo othanda ngentliziyo epheleleyo nangobubele, kwaye ngubani oza kukundwendwela ebusuku. Awunamlilo, awunakhandlela, akukho nomhlobo wakho. Umazi umhlobo wakho ngelizwi lakhe, nangona wena ungamazi

andiboni. Ngoko nangoko umbize ngegama, yaye uthando onalo ngaye lunwenwela entliziyweni yakho yaye luvuyisane nawe, kuba uvakalelwa kukuba ukho umhlobo wakho, nangona ungamboni. Yile nto yenzekayo kum ngokubhekisele kwiNkosi yethu, kwimibono embalwa efana naleyo ndisandula ukuyicaphula.

 

Inkangeleko yomnqamlezo oqaqambileyo, kwaza emva koko kweNkosi Yethu ikwimo awayekuyo eyayiziswe ebantwini nguPilato.

Kodwa nantsi enye into ekhethekileyo. Malunga neminyaka esixhenxe okanye esibhozo ubudala, ndandidla ngokuba ndedwa ndisalusa iinkomo emasimini nasemadlelweni. Ngenye imini ndazifumana ndikwintsimi enkulu; Ngequbuliso ndabona kuphuma esibhakabhakeni umnqamlezo omkhulu ofana nalowo iNkosi Yethu yabethelelwa kuwo. Kum yayibonakala iyigolide ngokupheleleyo, igolide esulungekileyo kwaye ekhazimle kangangokuba imibane yayidanyaza kuyo efana neenkwenkwezi. Lo mnqamlezo waqala ukusishiya isibhakabhaka wehlela emhlabeni njengoko uthwalwe sisithunywa sezulu. Uye wathoba ekoneni yebala bendikulo. Ndabaleka, ndolulela phezulu iingalo zam ezimbini phezulu, ngokungathi ndifuna ukuyamkela, ndaza ndakhala ngokuvakalayo nangamandla am onke: Owu mhle umnqamlezo! endiyiphindaphindayo izihlandlo eziliqela, de ndibe kwindawo endandikuyo wakubonayo isithunywa sezulu, sisusiwe; kodwa xa ndandikuloo ndawo, kwakungasekho mnqamlezo: ndabona umfanekiso wobukhulu bendoda, apho iNkosi Yethu yayikuloo meko uPilato wayimisayo phambi kwabantu, esithi:Ecce homo , yile ndoda. Ingelosi yawubamba ume nkqo umzobo, ijongene nam. Ndahlala njengomntu ogwetyiweyo, ogwetyiweyo, nophantse waphulukana nobomi bakhe, ndibona kumzimba othandekayo woMsindisi wam amanxeba kuphela kunye negazi lakhe elalingumsinga: yayiyimivumbo kuphela kunye namathumba amakhulu amnyama; Inkokeli yayo ethandekayo yayikhokela kwaye inomsindo. Ndibindekile ngulo mbono, ndaqonda ukuba zizono ezi zimhlisele kule meko. Ngokukhawuleza, kwaye ngaphandle kokwazi ukuba njani, umzobo wanyamalala kwaye ngokunjalo nengelosi; Andisaphili  nto

: Ndarhoxa ndixhelekile kakhulu, ndabheka kwelinye icala lebala endandisuka kulo xa ndibona umnqamlezo.

 

Ukubonakala kweNkosi yethu entliziyweni yomphefumlo othembekileyo.

Ndifike kwindawo yam yokuqala, ngequbuliso ndabona kuvela phambi kwam ibutho lezithunywa zezulu linxibe iingubo ezimhlophe.

 

(41-45)

 

njengekhephu, kukho imibhinqo yegolide, nemixwayo yamagxa ebhalwe amanani. Ezi ngelosi, zilungelelaniswe njengesangqa, zaxhasa intliziyo elingana nomntu, apho kwavela uvula, apho iNkosi yethu yayihleli etroneni, iinyawo zayo zijonge kwindawo yentliziyo. Wayevethe iimpahla zasebukhosini, enesithsaba sakhe sobukumkani entloko, nentonga ephethe ingalo yakhe yasekunene. Ingqalelo yam yonke ibikukuqwalasela iNkosi yethu kule ntliziyo. Uxolo olumnandi noluthandeka lwasasazwa ebusweni bakhe, kangangokuba lwaphefumlela uxolo kunye neyona ntuthuzelo imnandi. Wayewathobile amehlo akhe waza wathi cwaka ngokunzulu, njengoKumkani wobungangamsha; uhleli etroneni yakhe yobukumkani; I Ndothuswe kakhulu sesi sixhobo sonke. Ndabuza kwiiNgelosi ukuba zithetha ntoni na zonke ezi zinto; bona Wandiphendula ngokuvakalayo, wathi: “NguKumkani wethu ohleli entliziyweni yomphefumlo othembekileyo ngokwenene. Khangelani nigqale, ukuba kukho uKumkani olawula, elawula onke amandla omphefumlo; unjengokungathi usetroneni yakhe; uyalela izithunywa zakhe ukuba zize kuwulinda lo mphefumlo. Apho uphumle ngoxolo, uthabatha eyona nto ayithandayo apho. Iingelosi zema kunye neNkosi yethu ukuba zindive ezi zinto, zathi zakuthetha, yonke into yanyamalala ngokuqhwanyaza  kweliso.

 

Imbonakalo yeNkosi yethu ikwimo yePontiff enguMongami.

Ndidlulela kwelinye imbonakalo, le yeyokugqibela endiza kuyixela. Ngendingazange ndigqibe, ukuba bekuyimfuneko, ebomini bam, ukubalisa kuphela isahlulo seshumi sayo yonke imbonakalo endiye ndanayo yeNkosi yethu.

Ngenye imini, ndazibona ndindedwa kwigumbi lokuhlala, ndabona evela kwangoko phambi kwam, embindini wale ndlu, uPontifi oPhakamileyo ehleli kwisitulo esinengalo. Bendingamazi. Kususela ngelo xesha kuphela apho ndiye ndaqaphela kwimizobo iimpahla zepontifical zikaBawo Oyingcwele. Ndambona lo Divinity enxibe lomkhuba ndingawaziyo. Ndahlala ndimangalisiwe ngokupheleleyo. Zazingezizo iimpahla zomfundisi nje oqhelekileyo; wayenetiara entloko; ubuso bakhe babunobungangamsha, bumhlophe bubomvu; amehlo akhe, abengezela ngobukhazikhazi obuthambileyo, ebhalwe uthando ezinzulwini zomphefumlo. Oko enxibe ezobupopayi, ndiye ndamjonga qha ndingenasibindi sokusondela.

Lo Pontifi enguMongami waqalisa ukuphosa amehlo akhe kum, waza wathi kum ngomoya onobubele: “Yiza kum, mntwana wam. Ndiya kweli lizwi; kodwa ngephanyazo kwavakala ilizwi elichukumisayo neloyikekayo phezu kwentloko yam.

Zithobe! zithobe! walila, akayekanga ukulila ndade ndaya ezinyaweni zikaMongami. Ndaguqa ezinyaweni zakhe; Ndiye ndaqubuda ndamnqula ndaphakama.

Lo Pontif onguMongami, wandibona ndingcangcazela yaye ebanjwe luloyiko, waqalisa ukundibamba izandla endiphulula njengoko utata olungileyo ephulula umntwana wakhe. Njengoko ndisiva lo mbhexeshi usoloko ekhala, zithobe! Ndazisusa izandla zam ezincinci phakathi kwezakhe ndayoqubuda ezinyaweni zakhe, ndazincamisa ngothando olunentlonipho. Le Pontiff enguMongami yandixelela ukuba ndiphakame, kwaye yaqala ukundiphulula ngakumbi, iphulula izidlele zam ngezandla zakhe ezingcwele, kwaye

ukuyithatha ngesilevu. Oku kwabethelela emphefumlweni wam ukuthamba okukhulu kothando ngendikufumanisa kunzima ukukunyamezela, ukuba uThixo wayengandixhasanga ngokwakhe.

Ndandihleli ixesha elide ezinyaweni zikaPontifi onguMongami, ndaza ndaqubuda apho izihlandlo eziliqela, njengoko besenditshilo. Ndandinomnqweno ogqithiseleyo wokwazi ukuba ngowuphi kwabathathu bakaBathathu Emnye owayekunye nam: Ndandirhanela ukuba ngutata; kodwa uloyiko nentlonipho zandithintela ekubuzeni ngokuphandle. Nangona kunjalo, ukuqhelana kunye nokuphululwa nguThixo andinike kona kwandinika inkululeko encinci. Nditsho ngelizwi eliphantsi nelineentloni, okomntu ongakwaziyo ukuthetha: Ungubani? Yandiphendula iNkosi enguMongami, yathi, Ndingomnye wabahlobo bakho. Andizange ndaneliseke ngokupheleleyo, kwaye ndaqhubeka: ngaba uyiNtombi Enyulu? UPontifi onguMongami wandiphendula ngobunono obuncomekayo: AndiyoNtombi Enyulu, mntwana wam, ndingomnye wabahlobo bakho, kwaye ngenye imini uya kundazi ukuba ndingubani. Wathi ethetha la mazwi, wathi shwaka: Andisaboni nto. Into endiye ndayenza kukuva umakhwekhwetha ephinda ekhalaZithobe! Ndazibhekisa kweli lizwi ndingazi nokuba ndithethe kubani na, ndathi kuye, Ngubani na lo ubenam, esandula ukunyamalala? Eli lizwi landiphendula ngelizwi elikhulu ngakumbi: Ah! Ngubani lo ? bubulumko bukaBawo onguNaphakade . Latsho laphela ilizwi,  yaphela yonke into.

Yile nto iNkosi yethu eyandazisa ngayo emva kwesi siboniso, apho yazibonakalisa kum phantsi komzobo wePontiff enguMongami enxibe iimpahla zakhe zobupapa. Le fomu iphawula ukuba uBawo wethu Oyingcwele uPopu uyimele ngokwenene iNkosi yethu uYesu Kristu; lo msasazi ebekhala ngokungapheziyo Zithobeni , uphawula uloyiko nentlonipho, ekufuneka ihambe de

 

 

 

(46-50)

 

 

imbubhiso, esityala ngayo intobeko, uthando nentlonipho kwintloko yeBandla elingcwele, nakwiBandla, njengakwiJC ngokwayo. I-JC iseBandleni, kunye neBandla likaThixo. Kufuneka simamele ilizwi leCawa ngokungathi lilizwi likaThixo ngokwakhe.

Ngombono endisandul’ ukuthetha ngawo, iNkosi yethu maxa wambi yayikhe ilixube ilizwi layo nelomshumayeli, isithi kum, zithobeni; nto leyo ebonisa ukuba ilizwi likaPontifi enguMongami lelikaThixo, kwaye konke oku kukunye. Nabani na ochasa iBandla, uphikisana noThixo; nabani na ongathobeliyo iBandla, akathobeli uThixo; ongafuniyo ukuqaphela iBandla, akamqondi uThixo; nalowo uzahlulayo eBandleni, uzahlula ngokupheleleyo kuThixo.

 

§. IV.

Iidemon zikwabonakala kuDade ngeendlela ezahlukeneyo. Umahluko phakathi kokubonakala kweedemon kunye nezo zeNkosi yethu.

 

Ndiseza kwazisa apha amaqhinga eedemon ngam, izilingo, iingcebiso, ii-phantom kunye ne-chimeras ezithe zaphazamisa ukucinga kwam; eyenzeka rhoqo, oko kukuthi, xa babendihlasela ngokubonakala ngokubonakalayo kum, kwaye kwangaxeshanye bayigubungela ingqondo yam ngomphunga omnyama, kodwa ixesha ababebuhlungu kakhulu, yayiyimini yomsebenzi wam wonqulo, imisitho ebiqhubeka ekwayalani, eli rhamncwa loyikekayo lingasazi into emandiyenze, yandilandela yonke indawo; kwakuphambi kwamehlo am ukundothusa nokundothusa. Efana nebhere, wema phambi kwam, esenza izigebenga ezingcolileyo. Wathi kum, Uza kuzenza ngenxa yam izibhambathiso zakho. Wandinika uloyiko, iinkathazo kunye noloyiko ekucingeni, nto leyo yandinika intlungu enkulu. Njengoko babecula i -Suscipe , wandikhapha kuyo yonke ikhorasi; ndithe xa ndibuya ezantsi kwekwayara ndisiya ngasegeyithini, uye wazibeka ecaleni koMphathi wam, owayekhona  .

ehleli esihlalweni, apho wayelindele ukuba ndifumane izibhambathiso zam. Xa ndasondela kuye ekupheleni kweSikrokro , ndadanduluka, ndilandela isiko elimiselweyo: Ndamkele, Thixo wam, ngokwelizwi lakho, musa ukundibhidanisa ekulindeni kwam, inkolelo yam, nethemba lam. Ekwenzeni lo mthandazo, injongo yam, phakathi kokuzabalaza kwam, yayikukuziphosa ezingalweni zenceba kaThixo, ngokungathi ndigxalathelana, ngethemba lokulunga kwakhe okungapheliyo ukuba uya kundincedisa kwizenzo zongcwaliso olutsha endithe ndalunikela. bendiza kwenza kuye ngezibhambathiso zam. Ngeli xesha idemon yanyamalala. Ndiye ndaqubuda emadolweni oMphathi wam, apho ndavakalisa izibhambathiso zam ngokuzithemba okukhulu nangokukhalipha okukhulu.

 

Ukubonakala kweedemon ngexesha lokuvuma.

Ngobusuku bangaphambi komthendeleko omkhulu, ekuvuthweni kovumo, ndabona iindimoni ezintathu okanye ezine kwisibingelelo esincinane zingqungqa, zivuya. Ndandisazi ngoThixo ukuba iidemon zazize apho ngenjongo ukuze zenze izivumo ezimbi. Idemon nganye yayineofisi yayo: abanye babenembopheleleko yokuqalisa iincoko ukuthintela ukulungiselela ukuvuma izono; abanye babexhokonxa iingxabano phakathi koodade, ukuba ngubani oza kuqala kunabanye. Bambi babenomsebenzi wokwenza oonongendi baphelelwe ngumonde xa bebona oodade wabo ababenexesha  elide ekuvumeni izono. Ulwaneliseko olukhulu lweedemon yayikukubona oonongendi berhoxa ngokungenamonde kwizono zabo, besithi: Andibuyi ukuza kuvuma izono. Umtyholi ke ngoko wayekwincopho yovuyo lwakhe  .

Ndibona apha umahluko endawuvayo phakathi kwembonakalo yeNkosi yethu kunye nezo zikaSathana. Kulula ukuphazama, idemon iyazi kakuhle indlela yokwenza ingelosi yokukhanya.

 

Inkohliso kunye neenkohliso zomtyholi. imibono yobuxoki kunye nonqulo lobuxoki.

Umtyholi unabazinikele kuye nabazinikele kuye; uyazi kakuhle indlela yokuxelisa imincili kunye nezimbo zomzimba ezithile ezibonakala ngaphandle, nasesidlangalaleni, iimpawu zozinikelo lokwenyaniso. Oko ndilapha emhlabeni uThixo undazise abantu abaliqela ababekhohliswe ngusathana ndingazi. UThixo wandinyanzelela ukuba ndibalumkise kwaye ndilumkise u-confessor wabo, endathi, phakathi kwezinye izinto, ngokunxulumene nomnye wabo, owathi, engakhange aqaphele ukuba uyinto yokudlala kasathana, wanamathela kakhulu kwiintyilelo zakhe ezizenzileyo, ngenkohliso yakhe, ekuxwilweni kwakhe nakwimincili yakhe, ukuba ufane naba bafazi behlabathi, abondla iintliziyo zabo ngeziyolo zenyama kuphela, nangamanqwanqwa ehlabathi;

iimpahla zasefashonini, bema phambi kwesipili ukuze bazibone kwaye bazilungelelanise  nefashoni. bazibonakalisa phambi kwesipili izihlandlo ezilikhulu, okanye endaweni yoko bahlala ixesha elide bencomana yaye becingana. Zinjalo ke ezi zidalwa zingasweleyo zilahlekiswayo, zizikhohlisayo; kuba umtyholi akanako ukusikhohlisa ngaphandle  kokuthatha inxaxheba kwethu.

Xa ithe yafumana intliziyo evumayo ukuzondla ngeziyolo ezingcolileyo nezingcolileyo;

 

 

(51-55)

 

 

ke ngoko uphonsa isithiyelo sakhe, kwaye le ntliziyo, enomdla wokuzonwabisa, ngokukhawuleza ivumela ukuba ithathwe yiyo, ngokuqhelekileyo iyenzeka kwisini sesini; kwaye, njengomama wethu uEva, ehlala enomdla wokwazi nokufunda izinto ezintsha, ezi zidalwa zihlwempuzekileyo zinxila, ngoko ke, kunye nokuzinikela kwazo okuhle, kwaye ngokungapheliyo zijonge ngaphakathi kwazo apho umtyholi uphakamise itrone yakhe . Kusuka apho, ngokwentelekelelo yabo nangokweminqweno yabo, ibethelela kubo zonke iintlobo zenkohliso kunye nemibono yentelekelelo ezalise iingqondo zabo kunye neengqondo, zivela phi ezi ngcinga zimnandi baxakeke kakhulu. . Umphunga ukhuphuka uye kwingqondo, kwaye ngoko nangoko kukho into ebizwa ngokuba yingcwele ewela kwi-ecstasy, kodwa kwi-ecstasy ye-diabolical kwaye ngaphandle kwesiqhamo: ayifani naleyo kaEstere inzwakazi, owathi, ngenxa yobuthathaka bakhe obubangel’ imincili, wabahlangula abantu bakowabo; kodwa, ngokuchaseneyo, aba bantu bakhohlisiweyo balahlekelwa ngumphefumlo wabo kwaye bawubeke phantsi kwekuthinjwa naphantsi kwamandla kaMtyholi; ngenxa yokuba umtyholi akanabunzima ekubeyiseleni ukuba bangcwele: bakholelwa ngokuqinileyo kuko, bazondla ngazo zonke ezi ziyolo umtyholi azizoba kwingcinga yabo, ethi ibe ngumfanekiso wazo zonke ezi zinto zingaqhelekanga ababejongana kuzo. , baqwalaselana baza baqala bajongana baneliseka. Okukhona sisondela kumgwebo jikelele, kokukhona usathana eza kudala abazinikele bobuxoki nabazinikeleyo bobuxoki. aba bantu balahlekisiweyo balahlekelwa ngumphefumlo wabo baze bawubeke phantsi kokuthinjwa naphantsi kwamandla kaMtyholi; ngenxa yokuba umtyholi akanabunzima ekubeyiseleni ukuba bangcwele: bakholelwa ngokuqinileyo kuko, bazondla ngazo zonke ezi ziyolo umtyholi azizoba kwingcinga yabo, ethi ibe ngumfanekiso wazo zonke ezi zinto zingaqhelekanga ababejongana kuzo. , baqwalaselana baza baqala bajongana baneliseka. Okukhona sisondela kumgwebo jikelele, kokukhona usathana eza kudala abazinikele bobuxoki nabazinikeleyo bobuxoki. aba bantu balahlekisiweyo balahlekelwa ngumphefumlo wabo baze bawubeke phantsi kokuthinjwa naphantsi kwamandla kaMtyholi; ngenxa yokuba umtyholi akanabunzima ekubeyiseleni ukuba bangcwele: bakholelwa ngokuqinileyo kuko, bazondla ngazo zonke ezi ziyolo umtyholi azizoba kwingcinga yabo, ethi ibe ngumfanekiso wazo zonke ezi zinto zingaqhelekanga ababejongana kuzo. , baqwalaselana baza baqala bajongana baneliseka. Okukhona sisondela kumgwebo jikelele, kokukhona usathana eza kudala abazinikele bobuxoki nabazinikeleyo bobuxoki. bajongana kwaye babonakala kulwaneliseko lwabo olukhulu. Okukhona sisondela kumgwebo jikelele, kokukhona usathana eza kudala abazinikele bobuxoki nabazinikeleyo bobuxoki. bajongana kwaye babonakala kulwaneliseko lwabo olukhulu. Okukhona sisondela kumgwebo jikelele, kokukhona usathana eza kudala abazinikele bobuxoki nabazinikeleyo bobuxoki.

 

Umahluko phakathi kwembonakalo kaThixo neyeedemon.

Kukho lo mahluko phakathi kwembonakalo kaThixo neyomtyholi, yokuba imbonakalo kaThixo ihambisana nokuchukumisa uthando lwakhe nobungangamsha bakhe, obuvumela umphefumlo ukuba ube nentshukumo ethambileyo yothando, ezaliswe lulwazi olukhulu. ebungangamsheni bukaThixo. Obu bukhazikhazi bobungangamsha buwuzalisa umphefumlo ngothando nokubhideka: UThixo ubonakalisa ubukhulu bakhe emphefumlweni, athi kwangaxeshanye afumanise ubuphantsi bakhe nokungabi nto kwakhe. Ekugqibeleni, ulumkile ukuba angakholelwa ukuba ungcwele; xa wonk’ ubani kwanalowo wayemxelel’ izono wamxelela njalo, akazange akholelwe. Isizathu soku kukuba okukhona umphefumlo usondela kuThixo, kokukhona uThixo ezimanya naye kuwo; kokukhona esiba nokuthobeka ngokwazi ubuphantsi bakhe kunye nobubi obungcolileyo besidalwa. Ngoko ke akathobeki nje kuphela, uThixo.

Kwimbonakalo yedemon kuchasene noko; kuba umtyholi akaze akhokele imiphefumlo ayikhohlisayo ukuba imthande uThixo, oko akunakwenzeka kuye. Akalwazi ukuba luyintoni na uthando lukaThixo. Akazange amthande yaye akanakuze amthande. Ukuba aba bantu bakhohlisiwe bakholelwa ukuba bayamthanda uThixo, benza impazamo yokwenene. Basenokuba ngenene, enyanisweni, ngobuqhetseba bedemoni, andazi ukuba kukuthanda kangakanani na ukuthanda kwabo ngokwabo, nokugqwesa kwabo; yona ke intobeko, ikude lee kuyo: ngako oko, akukho nto kubo, ingekukunkwalambisa, ukuhanahanisa, nokukhohlisa kwamazwi abo, ngezenzo zabo, ngaphezu kwako konke ukuziphatha kwabo. Ngale nyaniso banokubakhohlisa abavumayo; ngenxa yokuba ikratshi labo libathwala bade bazithobe ekuhleni, kodwa ukuthobeka okuhanahanisayo nokuzenzisayo, engenaso nasiphi na isiqhamo, enenjongo nenjongo yayo kuphela ukubonakala ethobekile emehlweni abantu nabavumayo kubo, ukuze bazuze uzuko nodumo, nokuzukiswa njengabangcwele. I-austerities yabo kunye nokuziphatha kwabo komzimba ngamanye amaxesha bukhulu kwaye bukhohlakele ngakumbi kunabo babafundi bokwenene be-JC, kwaye konke oku kungumphumo webhongo kunye nomdla ongaqhelekanga wokuvela, ukwanelisa ikratshi labo.

 

Iindlela zokuphepha iinkohliso zeedemon.

Umntu okhokelwa ngumoya kaThixo akasoloko engakhuselekanga kwiintlaselo zikaSathana; kodwa ngokoluvo lwam, nangokwam amava alo, ezi zixhobo ziqhelekileyo ukuba umphefumlo, ofuna kuphela uzuko lukaThixo nothando lwakhe, ofuna kuphela ukufa ehlabathini, kuzo zonke izidalwa nakuye ngokwakhe. uthando lukaThixo nothi ekugqibeleni lufune ukukholisa  uThixo walo kuphela, lukhonze yena kuphela, lumele luchase utshaba lwayo, oluthi maxa wambi lungazi ukuba luhlasele phi na, kuba luyaloyika yaye luyangcangcazela  .

woyisiwe: lo mphefumlo ukuwo kwezi mpawu nakuqheliselo lwezi mpawu, xa uThixo esondela kuwo aze athethe nawo, ngokuqinisekileyo uya kuwuqonda; kuba kukho into endingayaziyo, leyo umntu angayiqondiyo, naleyo angayicacisiyo, ephuma kweli lizwi lobuthixo, igqobhoze entliziyweni, iwenze umphefumlo ungcangcazele luvuyo olumnandi. Wadanduluka ethetha yedwa, engangxoli, esithi, Nanku uThixo wentliziyo yam, ikuphela kwento endiyinqwenelayo, lowo uthandwa yintliziyo yam! Ukususela ngoko, ukuba uThixo umbuza okuthile, umphulaphula ngentlonelo engcwele exutywe noloyiko nembubhiso. Uzinikele kuye, nokuba kukusebenza, nokuba kukuva, ukuba adle ubomi, nokuba kukufa; umtsalane wawo omkhulu kukuzinikela ezandleni zeNkosi, ngokutsho

Xa utshaba lwam lwandihlaselayo lwafuna ukundenza ndiqonde ukuba nguye uNdikhoyo, suka ala nakuqonda umphefumlo wam. ngokuchaseneyo, yena

engcangcazela kukoyika ukwenza impazamo. Wazibona ekhathazekile yaye ehlaselwa zizinto eziliqela awayengaziqondi. Ukususela ngoko ukuya phambili, ngentembelo ephilileyo kuThixo, ndaphakama ndaya kuye ngalo lonke uthando lwentliziyo yam nangothando lwam lonke. Yiza, Nkosi yam, Thixo wam, ndathi kuye, Khawuleza undincede, khawuleza uze kundinceda.

Ngaloo ndlela ndalishiya elo qela likaSathana, elanyamalala njengomsi. Oku koko ndiye ndajamelana nako izihlandlo eziliqela.

Ndiza kongeza apha ezimbini okanye ezintathu iingcebiso eziluncedo kakhulu zokulwa notshaba. Asikokuzincamathela kwaphela kwiintuthuzelo, nangona ngokokuziphatha ubani ekholelwa ukuba zezakaThixo; angazinamatheli, kungekuphela nje kwiintuthuzelo ezingaqhelekanga, kodwa neziqhelekileyo. Ukuba umphefumlo ufuna ukukholisa uThixo yedwa, kufuneka uzimele ngokubanzi kuyo yonke into engeyiyo uThixo, kwizinto zokomoya njengezinto zexeshana, nakwizidalwa ezilungileyo njengezobubi, ukujonga uThixo kuzo zonke izidalwa kunye nothando. yeAD, kwaye ubone zonke izidalwa kuThixo. Phakathi kwabo baya kufunda oku, kukho abathile abaya kukholelwa ukuba akunakwenzeka; kodwa ndiphendula ndithi sinako ukwenza nantoni na ngoncedo lobabalo. Umntu akadingi lubabalo olungaqhelekanga koku, iinyaniso zokholo zizodwa zanele;

umntu. Kwanakwizizalwana zakho ezisondeleyo, unokubugcina ubuhlobo bakho noThixo, uze umthande uThixo kuzo. Owu uqheliselo oluvuyisayo kwabo baya kuzingisa kuyo kude kube sekupheleni! Sinokutsho ukuba bafumana iparadesi esemhlabeni, okanye kunoko baqalisa ukuthanda uThixo emhlabeni, nommelwane wabo, njengoko beya kwenza ngonaphakade ezulwini kulonwabo lwabasikelelweyo.

 

§. v.

Udade uyazabalaza ngokuchasene neminqweno kunye notyekelo lwendalo lwentliziyo, kamsinya nje emva komsebenzi wakhe wonqulo.

 

Ndandineminyaka engamashumi amabini anesine okanye amashumi amabini anesihlanu xa ndibenethamsanqa lokwenza izifungo zam zenkolo. UThixo wayendinike impilo efezekileyo namandla amakhulu obuntu, oonongendi ababethabathekile ngabo, ngethemba lokuba ndandiya kukwazi ukunceda uluntu. Ngale nto, uThixo olungileyo undinike ubizo olulungileyo ngentando elungileyo yokuzalisekisa imisebenzi yoburhulumente bam, nokunikela, ngenxa yothando lukaThixo nokubulela uluntu, zonke iinkonzo ezilungileyo noncedo endinokuthi ndibe nalo. .kubo bonke oonongendi, ngokukodwa kwabo bagulayo, nakwabo bafuna uncedo olungakumbi; nto leyo eyandibangela ndanobuhlobo obuninzi bemvelo, obabuchasene nobabalo oluqhelekileyo omnye komnye.

 

Ubuhlobo bendalo kakhulu boonongendi abaninzi kuDade; uva ubunzima ngantoni kwesi sihlandlo.

Oku kwavusa umoya womona, kwandibangela intlungu enkulu kakhulu ngaphakathi kum, kokubini kwelinye icala nakweliya icala. Ndabona ngokucacileyo kuThixo ukuba zonke ezi zinto zigqithisayo zivela kumtyholi; Ke yona into eyayindikhathaza, njengoko ndandisazi ngamava ukuba olu tshaba lusoloko lundisukela, kwaye lenze konke okusemandleni, kwicala lezidalwa nakwam, ukundithintela ukuba ndibe ngunongendi, ndabona nangona kunjalo. Bendisazoliwa. Ndathatha icala lam ngokokubona kwentando kaThixo.

Ndaya kufuna uSuper wam, ndamcenga, xa oonongendi becela imvume kuye ukuba andinike into, ndale, ndibaxelele ukuba andiyidingi, kwaye ndiza kuyifumana.

isazela besihlazekile ngenxa yesifungo sam sobuhlwempu. Oonongendi, phezu kwako nje oku, bandifaka kwisisele sethu yonke into ababenayo, ukuze bandikholise. Ndithe ndakuyifumana ndayisa kuSuperior. Bathe ke bakukuva oko, bandicaphukela, ndaza ndavuya, kuba abanye ababendichasile baba nemihlali. Ngoko nantoni na endandinokuyenza ngaphandle kokuba uThixo acaphuke, ndandiyenza ukuze ndithobe umsindo wabo. Maxa wambi, xa babendifumana ndedwa, babendigabha yonke into eyayicetywa yidemon kubo. Ndaba novelwano olukhulu xa ndibabona bebandezeleka kakhulu ngenxa yam. Xa babe izigulana ezibini kwigumbi labagulayo, esinye sazo sasindithanda, esinye sasichasene nam, ndandisenza ugonyamelo kum ngenxa yothando lukaThixo. Ndamjonga kakuhle lo wokugqibela, ndaza ndanikela ingqalelo engakumbi ekumkhonzeni kakuhle, de kwaba yingozi kulowo wokuqala; nto leyo yabangela ukubande nokunganeliseki kwabo babengathi bangabahlobo bam, nto leyo eyabavuyisa kakhulu abanye. Engaphakathi kwam bendiziphatha ngokubona kwam kuThixo ukuba ngoyena ugqibeleleyo ngokubhekisele kula  maqela mabini aphikisanayo.

Xa ndandinikela inkonzo kwabo babechasene nam, ndandikholelwa ukuba oko kuyamkholisa uThixo, yaye injongo yam yayikukuzukisa yena kuphela. Ngokuphathelele abanye, xa ndibabuyisela

inkonzo, ndaziva ndinenzondo ethile endingababonisiyo, ndisoyika ukuba kwiinkonzo ezininzi endibenzela zona ixesha lam liya kuchithwa phambi koThixo. Kungenxa yoko le nto ndandihlala ndizihlaziya iinjongo zam ezilungileyo ukuze ndiyenzele uthando olunyulu lukaThixo kuphela.

 

Ngexesha lokufumana kwakhe ubutsha, waphathwa ngqwabalala ngabashicileli  .

Xa ndandingunongendi nowayengumfundi osemtsha, ndandisoloko ndijongwe ngunongendi owayenoburheletyo. Ndamjonga njengomhlobo wokwenene ngokomoya kaThixo. Wandilungisa kuzo zonke iziphoso zam, waza wasebenza ukuzilungisa ngobulali nangothando. Wayendifundisa into  emandiyenzele yona; kodwa xa wayephakathi kwabantu, yaye ngokukodwa phambi koonongendi abathile ababenxamnye nam,  waxabana nam

ukubaluleka, ndaza ndachaza zonke iimpazamo endizenzileyo ekhitshini; wandixelela ukuba ndisisilo, kwaye andizange ndifunde ukupheka kakuhle: ngelizwi, wayebonakala ephethe kakubi kum ngandlela zonke.

 

Uvakalelwa kukuba lo nongendi uthando lwendalo kakhulu akhawuleza alucinezele.

Olona tyekelo lwam lolona ndalufumana kuye, kuba ndabona kuThixo ukuba zonke iimbono zakhe nendlela andenze ngayo yayiyeyokulunga kwam kuphela. Emva komsebenzi wam, wayeka ukuxabana nam esidlangalaleni; kodwa idemon, eyayisoloko ikujongile ukonakaliswa kwam, yabona ukuba ndandiyichasa, yaye ndandinikela inkonzo kuyo ngendlela enobubele nombulelo. Eneneni, ngaphakathi kwam ndaziva ndinotyekelo oluthile ngaye, nto leyo endandingayiva nakwabanye. Xa ndandindedwa naye, ndandisenza izinto ezimbalwa endandiqhelene nazo, njengokumbamba izandla. Lo mama ulungileyo wabarhola kwangoko, waza wandinika i-remonstrance yesisa, endixelela ukuba kwakungafanelekanga phakathi koonongendi ukubambana ngezandla ngokuqhelana okanye ubuhlobo bendalo; ukuba ndandingowonqulo, nokuba ndifanele ndithande uThixo kuphela ndize ndinamathele kuye yedwa. Yonke into awayeyithetha kum yayindenza ndimhlonele yaye ndibe ngumhlobo wam, kuba uThixo wayemnike mna ukuba andilwele. okungagqibekanga.

Ngaphezu koko, kobu buhlobo bufekethekileyo ngokugqithisileyo endabuvayo ngakuye, idemon yongezelela isihendo esinamandla kubuhlobo obungalawulekiyo. Kuyo yonke into endandimenzela yona, ndandiziva ndimthanda ngendlela ethile eyayisoloko isongamela: yaya kude kangangokuba ndandinomona. Ndithe ndakuyibona loo nto, ndakhwankqiswa. yilento ndikwaziyo ukuyenza. Ndathatha isigqibo sokuya kuvuma izono, kwaye ndizityhole ngako konke oko ndazifumana ndinetyala, ngakumbi ngesi sihlandlo. Ndagqiba kwelokuba ndithethe ngokukhethekileyo nonongendi owayendivisa intlungu. Ndathi kuye: Mama, ndithandazele kuThixo. Ndavuma kuye ngobuchule yonke into endiyivayo ngaye ngaphakathi kwam; kunye nokuthintela, Ndamcenga ukuba angandikhathazi kangako, ndimqinisekisa ukuba ndigqibile, ngobabalo lukaThixo, ukuba ndilwe nale nkanuko nanini na isenza ukuba ivakale. Ndamthembisa ukuba andizumhoya, andizumjonga nokumjonga okanye ndimbulise, ndifuna ukuba xa eneshishini nam, okanye kukho into ayidingayo, andibuze. Ngelishwa sasidla ngokuba neshishini kunye, yena engumntu othengisayo, kunye nam ndingudade ekhitshini. Ndaguqa phantsi, ndambongoza ukuba andixolele, athandaze kuYehova efuna ukuba xa eneshishini nam, okanye efuna okuthile, andibuze. Ngelishwa sasidla ngokuba neshishini kunye, yena engumntu othengisayo, kwaye mna ndingudade ekhitshini. Ndaguqa phantsi, ndambongoza ukuba andixolele, athandaze kuYehova efuna ukuba xa eneshishini nam, okanye efuna okuthile, andibuze. Ngelishwa sasidla ngokuba neshishini kunye, yena engumntu othengisayo, kunye nam ndingudade ekhitshini. Ndaguqa phantsi, ndambongoza ukuba andixolele, athandaze kuYehova UKWENZA

kuzisa uloyiso ekhaya. Lo mama ulungileyo wandithembisa ukuba uya kuyenza, kwaye wandixelela ukuba ndenze kuye njengoko iNkosi elungileyo iya kundikhuthaza, endiqinisekisa ukuba akayi kuba nangxaki.

Emva koko sohlukana; Ndathetha naye emva koko xa kuyimfuneko. Khange ndilinge ndiwaphakamise amehlo am ndimjonge ndisathetha naye; Ndandizenza ubundlobongela kum kangangokuba ndandingcangcazela. Ngelishwa wazifumanisa ephazamiseka kakhulu ziintlungu zecala, engakhange alale ebhedini. Weza ekhitshini ngenye intsasa, ekhalaza ngeentlungu awayeziva; kodwa, Thixo! enjani yona intlungu endayivayo xa ndabona ukuba ngumsebenzi wam ukuba ndimlumkise ndize ndimnike umhluzi njengoko oodade babedla ngokwenza koonongendi abagulayo. Lo mama ulungile wayenentobeko yokundicela. Ngoko nangoko ndamnika ngolwaneliseko olukhulu, ndambulela uThixo ngokungasiphuli isithembiso sam.

 

Umlo kaDade wokuzoyisa. Uthetha ukuba uyathatha. Uloyiso lwakhe.

Usizi lwam, ngokunxulumene nalo mnqweno, aluzange lunciphe, nangona yonke into endiyenzayo ukuyinqoba. Ndandingcungcuthekiswa imini nobusuku, ndisoloko ndixakekile nguye, ndinexhala lokuba uqhuba njani, ndinomnqweno omkhulu wokuba kufutshane naye. Xa ndandilapho, ndandinyanzelekile ukuba ndigcine izithembiso endazenza kuThixo, ndingamjongi, ndingathethi naye, okanye ndinikele ngqalelo kuye. Kwakubonakala ngathi zonke ezi zilumkiso zazindenza ndibandezeleke.

Ngenye imini lo nongendi wathi kum: Dadewethu, ngale ngokuhlwa, xa usesiseleni sakho, ndenzele irosari yakho. Ndithe ndingena kancinane nje ndaqala ukuthi ngaphakathi ndibuhlungu, ngokuchasene nalo nongendi: I

 

 

(66-70)

 

 

kungalunga kakhulu ukuba ndithethe irosari yam ngenxa yakhe! Ndibandezeleka kakhulu ngaye! Ndandiphantse ndizimisele ukuba andisayi. Noko ke, ekucingeni kwam, ndacinga ukuba mhlawumbi iNkosi elungileyo yayiza kuba nosizi ngam; Ndithetha irosari yam ngembeko yeNtombi Enyulu ukuze indizuzele kuNyana wakhe oyintanda ukuhlangulwa kolu thando. Xa kusithiwa zasuswa zonke ezi ntlungu kum kwangelo xesha, zathi shwaka zonke ezi ngcinga.

ngokukhawuleza, ukuba andizange ndiyicinge kwakhona de kube yimini elandelayo malunga nemini emaqanda. Le nkanuko iqalekisiweyo, yanda kakhulu ngusathana, yahlala kanye inyanga enye. Eli xesha kum lalibonakala lilide kunokuba ndandibandezelekile iminyaka eliqela. Intlekele engaphakathi kwam yayinganyamezeleki kum ngenxa yokoyika ukucaphukisa uThixo nokunikezela kubuthathaka bendalo, kwaye ndandisoyika ukuba iya kuhlala ubomi bam bonke. Ndazixelela oku: Ukuba ndandingawenzanga umsebenzi wam kolu luntu, ndandingenakuze ndigqibe ekubeni ndiwenze, okoko nje ndisiva ngaphakathi kum le ntshukumo yothando lwalo nongendi. Kwintlungu yam, eyayigqithise, ndingathanda ukuba ngunongendi ngaphezu kwekhulu leligi ukusuka kuye.

Le yindlela endiye ndaziphatha ngayo kule nyanga. Ndamthobela ngokungafihlisiyo umvuma-tyala wam kuyo yonke into awayendixelela ukuba ndiyenze, ndinikela ugwebo lwam nesizathu kuye. Bendingathanda ukungawuthabathi uMthendeleko, ngenxa yobumnyama obungqingqwa umphefumlo wam. Ndoyika ke xa ndisenza umthendeleko, ukwenza imibingelelo, ndicinga ukuba uThixo unomsindo omkhulu kum, ngokuba endihluthe le nzwakazi. ukukhanya endikhe ndathetha ngako kwenye indawo, waye wandilahla wandishiya ebumnyameni, andizange ndiphinde ndibone nethontsi lokundikhokela. Ukholo lwandikhokela ngaphandle kozinikelo olunengqiqo, kwaye konke okunengqiqo kwakuxhonywe kwinto ephathelele ukuzinikela. Noko ke, ndasilahla esam isigqibo sokulandela yonke into endiyivumayo. Wayefuna ukuba ndenze yonke imithendeleko, kwaye ndiye kuvuma izono kuphela ngeveki.

INkosi elungileyo yandinika ubabalo lokuyithobela. Ndiye ndakwazi ukuyoxela kunkoskazi wam ndaza ndamxelela yonke into eyayisenzeka ngalo nongendi endandimchazele  . Ndafumana intuthuzelo eninzi kuyo, yaye yandixelela ukuba yayisisilingo. Wongeza njan sisi wam ukuba ungazifaka njani kunun ekuthethise kangaka, ebengqwabalala ngakuwe? Unkosikazi wam naye wayefuna ndenze yonke  imithendeleko.

Nantsi into eyenzekayo kum ngaloo nyanga. Ndithe cwaka imini yonke ndikunye nabanye oonongendi abandibonayo  ukuba ndinengxaki. Beza kundithuthuzela, bazama ukundikhandisela ukuze bafumanise ukuba yintoni na eyayindiphethe kakubi; kodwa intlungu yam ndayigcina iyimfihlo ukuba ndingathetha ngayo nakubani na ngaphandle kommeli wam nenkosikazi yam. Oonongendi babona ngokucacileyo ukuba ndandingaziphathi njengesiqhelo; ndaye ndoyika ukuzibandakanya nabo njengoko bendizincamathele kwenye kuyo yonke le nyanga, khange ndibe nabuganga bakuthi xa bethetha nam ndiphakamise amehlo am ndibajonge ebusweni. Ndabaphendula nje into efunekayo, ndakhawuleza ndabashiya, ndicela baxole, kuba kufuneka ndiphangele. Pha

intloko, ukuba andiziphathanga njengesiqhelo, ukuba kunzima ukuthetha nabo, kwaye andizange ndibajonge. Uye wandivuma ukuba bebekhalaza ngam. Wandithethisa wandixelela ukuba ndityhalela kude kakhulu.

Yaba luyanda ke umvandedwa kum, yandenza ndaqonda ukuba ibingaphumi kuThixo, ekubeni wayeyichasile loo nto uyivumayo; ukuba njalo kwakuyimfuneko ukuba ndizilahle ezi zithembiso ukuze ndithobele, nokuba ndiya kuphila kakuhle.

Noko ke ndaye ndazixhasa ngobabalo lukaThixo kwinto endayenzayo, kuba u-confessor wam wayengandixelelanga ngokuphandle ukuba ndingayenzi.

Emva kokuba ndivume izono zam, oonongendi baphawula ukuba ndiqhubeka ndithe cwaka nendlela yam eqhelekileyo yokwenza izinto. Kukho omnye owafika ngenye imini endifumana ekhitshini, owathi, bekhona oonongendi abaliqela, wandidubula ethetha yonke into awayeyicinga ngam.

Ndandixakeke kakhulu; Khange ndimphendule tu. Wandixelela amagama aliqela awawathethwa ngummeli wam ngasese: Ukuba  ndandishiywa ziingqondo kwaye ndiyaphambana. Oku kwajikeleza ekuhlaleni: oonongendi bandijonga njengomntu oshiywa  ziingqondo.

INkosi elungileyo yandihlangula kule nkanuko, njengoko benditshilo ngasentla. Lo nongendi ekuthethwa ngaye akazange andixelele kwakuthethwa ngam ekuhlaleni; kodwa kwathi kamsinya nje ndakuba ndabona ukuba ndikhululwe ngokupheleleyo kule ntlungu, ndamazisa oko, ngokwenza kunye naye njengoko ndandisenza ngaphambili, ndimlindele kusengaphambili kuyo yonke into kwaye ndinikela inkonzo yakhe ngovuyo nombulelo. Njengoko ndandisohlwaywe kakuhle yile nkanuko, ndathandaza kuYehova ukuba andibulale

ngokupheleleyo kolu thando lwendalo, ukuze babone izidalwa kuphela kuThixo, kwaye bazithande kuphela ngothando olunyulu lwentliziyo kaYesu. Lo Thixo wokulunga undizalisa ngeenceba ezininzi kangangokuba kum ibingathi ndisishiyile isihogo ndibuyela kulonwabo lobukho bukaThixo nezibane zakhe zobuThixo.

 

§. VI.

Eminye imilo kaDade ngokuchasene neminqweno, kwaye ngakumbi ngokuchasene nekratshi.

 

Inkosi elungileyo yandilumkisa ukuba ndilahle igridi, ndifele kubazali bam nasehlabathini, kwaye indazise ukuba ndiza kubandezeleka ngantoni kumtyholi, kwiminqweno yam kunye nehlabathi. Wathi kum: “Mntwana wam endimthandayo, umele ulilahle ngokupheleleyo ihlabathi, abazali bakho, ngokwenza idini lokungaphindi uye esangweni ngaphandle kokuthobela. Thetha ngale nto kummeli wakho nakuMphathi wakho, kwaye wenze njengoko bakuyalelayo.  »

 

Ugqiba kwelokuba angaphindi aye kwigumbi lokuphumla ngaphandle kokuthobela. Uhlebeza eluntwini ngokuchasene naye.

Ndaya kufuna uMvumo wam kunye noPhathi wam; Ndavakalisa kubo icebo endandilenzile lozuko lukaThixo kunye nosindiso lomphefumlo wam. Bobabini basivumile isigqibo sam. Wathi kum oPhakamileyo: Dadewethu, akufanelanga wenze isibhambathiso ngalo nto, kuba xa kukho imfuneko ndibona kufanelekile ukuba uhambe. Kodwa, Nkosi yam! yayikum, ngokumalunga noonongendi abaninzi, kwaye ngokukodwa omnye wabo, ukwanda okutsha kweentlungu. Abanye bathi luhlobo oluthile lokuhanahanisa kum, ukuba ndifuna ukuqatshelwa ngokwenza into enye, ukuchukumisa abanye; abanye bathi kungenxa yobudenge; ukuba, ngaphezu koko, ndandingenangqondo yokuthetha nabantu behlabathi. Bakhona abanye ababendithatha ngasese ukuba bandikhuphe ngokusuka entliziyweni, bandinika isepha ebalulekileyo. Eyona nto yayindilungela kukuba uMvumo kunye noPhakamileyo babe ngam, nto leyo eyabangela ukuba kube njalo isaqhwithi.

 

Omnye wodade wabo ufuna ukumbona ngokupheleleyo. Uyamphendula.

Kodwa usathana ebona ukuba imbumbulu yakhe iphosiwe, wajikela kubazali bam, bavutha ngumsindo ngale ndlela bendiyithathile; babefuna ukundibona ngokupheleleyo, yaye ngokukodwa omnye woodade wethu, owanyuka waya kuvuma izono waza wamcenga ukuba athumele ukuba ndibizwe ukuze andibone kwisango lezobuvuvuvuvu elalivuleleka kwigumbi lokuvuma izono. Wacela uPhakamani wathi makayondilanda ngeloxesha, ukuze sibonane nosisi wam. Weza uSuperior wam ezondithatha, wandibamba ngesandla, wandisa kwi confessional, oh ndifike usisi endilindile. Uqale wabulisa wandixelela ukuba  wandoyisa

izithuko, kwaye wayikhupha yonke into awayeyithanda entliziyweni yakhe, phambi koMvumo kunye noPhakamileyo, abangazange bandishiye. Akuba etshilo, ndamphendula ndathi, Hlala, dade wethu, endlwini yakho, uzigcine izinto zakho; ungezi apha ukuzondiphazamisa kweyam intanda, apho ndizivalele khona ngenxa yothando lukaThixo. Ndamnika ukuba aqonde ukuba ndandizimisele ngokupheleleyo ukuba ndingangeni esangweni nakubani na, ngaphandle kokuba ukuthobela kwakufuneka ndenze njalo.

 

Utyelelo oluvela kubantu behlabathi. Wakwazi njani u Sister ukuba ahlukane nayo.

Ndikonwabela ukuphumla okwethutyana; kodwa nanku umoya omtsha, ombi ngakumbi kunabanye. Umtyholi wandinika igama lobuxoki ezingqondweni zabantu behlabathi, kwaye wabaphembelela ngoxabiso olungento ngam. Uye wabenza bazondibuza egeyithini phofu bendingeyonto kubo. Maxa wambi babede babe ngabokuqala edolophini. Umphathi wam, ebona ukuba aba bantu bandibuza ngokungathi bafuna ukwazi, wandinyanzela ukuba ndiye esangweni, yaye izihlandlo eziliqela ndandinyanzelwa ukuba ndikwenze oko ngenxa yokuthobela, nto leyo eyayindivisa ubuhlungu obukhulu. Ndaliqonda iqhinga elalilenziwa yidemon nehlabathi ukuba lindifake ebugxwayibeni lindichithe. Ndicinga ngento emandiyenze, ndeza necebo lokuba xa kuvela ithuba lokubulala ukuya esangweni, nabani na, ukuba yayingabantu behlabathi abandibuzayo: yayikukuzenza msulwa kuyo yonke into ababeyithetha kum, ngakumbi ngemibuzo ethile engaqhelekanga, kwaye ndingabancomi nanye into ngaphandle kokubaxelela ukuba ndiye esangweni kuphela. lokuthobela. Xa abantu behlabathi beza kubona izalamane zabo zonqulo, baphinda bandibuza: Andizange ndibavume ngokupheleleyo. Le ndlela yokwenza yandiphumelelisa kakuhle kakhulu, kwaye kangangexesha elithile andizange ndiphinde ndiye esangweni bandibuza bathi: Andibavumanga. Le ndlela yokwenza yandiphumelelisa kakuhle kakhulu, kwaye kangangexesha elithile andizange ndiphinde ndiye esangweni bandibuza bathi: Andibavumanga. Le ndlela yokwenza yandiphumelelisa kakuhle kakhulu, kwaye kangangexesha elithile andizange ndiphinde ndiye esangweni Konke.

 

Idemon imlinga ngekratshi. Imilo yakhe.

Kodwa umtyholi wandihlasela ngentshiseko yam ebalaseleyo, elikratshi, kwaye wongeza izilingo ezinamandla zokuzola. Kungekudala kwafuneka ndilwe ngezixhobo ezibukhali ngokuchasene nam kunye notshaba olwaluhlala luzibonakalisa kwingcinga yam nasengqondweni yam. Yathi kum, Yabona, igama elihle onalo ngoku ehlabathini, naselunqulweni; phantse wonke umntu ujonge kuwe kwaye akuthathe njengongcwele. Undikhumbuze ngawo onke amagama ahlukeneyo ebebhekiswa kum

igridi okanye ekuhlaleni. Ndandingenabo obunye ubutyebi ngaphandle kobabalo lwe

ukuba ndandiza kuntywiliselwa enzonzobileni; kwakubonakala ngathi yonke into yayindenza ndibe neqhayiya yaye yasebenza njengezixhobo zokulwa nam le demon. Ndazithoba kwizahluko phambi koluntu: yonke le nto yandinceda ukuba ndive intlungu ngakumbi.

 

Ucela kuYehova ukuthotywa kunye neembandezelo. Unikiwe.

Kwathi ngenye imini, ndiphakathi kweentlungu zam, ndazibona ndisilwa ngokugqithisileyo macala onke, ndayiphakamisela ezulwini intliziyo yam nomoya wam, ndathi: “Nkosi, wena uyibonayo imeko yogonyamelo endikuyo phakathi kweentshaba zam. Ndikhoyo, osoloko esilwa nam, yiza kundinceda, nguwe wedwa onokuphumelela. Ndincede, Thixo wam, ndithumele isifo esiqatha, nobulwelwe, nokuthotywa, okuwuhlaselayo lo mzimba, nale mpilo igqibeleleyo, othe wandinika yona ebutsheni bam, eyinto engumrhumo wokutshiseka kwiminqweno yam, nendlela yokundikhulisa. phambi kwezidalwa, naphambi koluntu, olwaneliseke kakhulu kwaye luvuya kakhulu ngokundifaka elunqulweni. »

Kwakungekho nto ngaphandle kwehlombe kunye nemincili malunga nam, nto leyo eyayisoloko ibangela, ngokubhekisele kum, amaqela amabini endlwini, elinye labahlobo, kunye nelinye elinomona. Ngesi sihlandlo, ndathandaza kuYehova ukuba ndiwubethe lo  mzimba ukhaliphileyo, ndaza ndazinikela kuye ngokupheleleyo ukuze ndibandezeleke nangantoni na ayithandayo ukuze ndithobeke phambi kwezidalwa, kunokuba ndiphulukane  nomphefumlo wam .  Owu  wethu

Thixo ! andizange ndinikwe isicelo ngokukhawuleza. Njengoko ndandithandaza kuThixo, ndeva uhlaselo olunamandla lwendalo lundivukela, lundenza ndive: Ucela ntoni? Ngaba uyazi ukuba zeziphi iintsizi kunye nokuba zeziphi iimbandezelo oya kuba nazo ekuhlaleni eziya kuthi mhlawumbi zikugcine unentlungu enkulu ekuguleni njengoko bekumnandi ukuba nawe usempilweni? Ndazibona ndityumkile phantsi kwenkxwaleko, ndizibona ndisilwa nam. Ngaphandle kokuwurhoxisa umthandazo wam, ndazinikela ekuthandeni kukaThixo, ngethemba lokuba oko

Umthandazo wam ubungayi kumcaphukisa, kuba bendithandazela inceba yakhe nosindiso lwam.

Andizange ndibe ngaphezu kweentsuku ezisibhozo, njengoko ndikhumbula, ngaphandle kokuva iziphumo zesicelo sam. Lo Msindisi ungcwele, ekhululekile kakhulu kwaye ethanda ukubandezeleka ngenxa yothando lwethu, wandizukisa ngesipho esinqabileyo somnqamlezo wakhe, kuzo zonke iintlobo zobuthathaka obungapheliyo, kunye nokuthotywa phambi koThixo naphambi kwabantu. Yayiyindlela entle yokulwa kunye nokoyisa iminqweno yam ngoncedo lobabalo. Kodwa ngelishwa ! eyona nto ibalaseleyo ayixoki kodwa kuthi. Kwaye ndiseza kubalisa uhlaselo olukhohlakeleyo olwathi idemon yalunikela kum ngesihlandlo senceba nesisa athe uThixo wandinika sona naxa ngamanye amaxesha ndikweyona ntlungu inkulu.

 

UThixo umxhasa ngobabalo olungaqhelekanga kuqhaqho olubuhlungu kakhulu.

Ngenye imini ndandisezandleni zikagqirha wotyando, yaye kwafuneka ndingcungcuthekiswe ziintlungu zokuqhawuka kweglasi yokukhulisa idolo, eyayilingana nentloko yomntwana. Kwafuneka asike izihlandlo eziliqela. Lo Thixo wokulunga wandenzela inceba ngexesha lotyando, olwathatha malunga nekota yeyure. Ndihlaliswe esitulweni, ndingabanjwanga okanye ndibotshwe, ndibeka idolo lam ngokukhululekileyo kwaye ndingahexi, kwaye oko kumangalisa kakhulu kunye nokuncoma okukhulu kwabancedisi, kunye nogqirha wotyando, owathi, ukuba wayesendaweni yam. , kwakuza kufuneka ibotshwe ngokuqinileyo. Kodwa ngelishwa ! ukuba ubusazi ukuba kwenzeke njani konke oku entliziyweni yam ngomlilo wothando lukaThixo kunye nobukho bukaBathathu Emnye oNgcwele, iincoko zakhe zazimnandi kangangokuba zazilolela zonke ezona ntlungu zam zinzulu!nangaphezu koko, Thixo wam! kwaye intliziyo yam yayinqwenela ukuba kube kwenzelwa yona ngokwayo ukuba ezi ziqendu zenziwe, ukuba ibe lixhoba lothando lobuthixo oluyitshise ngomlilo. Kodwa ngelishwa ! Ubabalo lukaThixo luthe lwanyamalala ngokuhlwa, utshaba lwam olukhulu aluzange luphoswe lukudubula lwalo. Weza ukundihenda ngesilingo esinamandla, ngokundimela kwintelekelelo yam yonke into engento ebindiphethe, ngakumbi kule meko. Uyingcwele, wandikhohlisa. Bonke abo babengababukeli bolu tyando, balubhentsisile eluntwini nasehlabathini, yaye niyabuhlonela ubungcwele babo.

Ukoyika amampunge kumenza acele kuThixo intlungu eqatha ngaphandle kolwazelelelo lusengqiqweni. Unikiwe.

Ngelo xesha ndabhenela kuThixo ngamandla am onke, ndisithi: “Nkosi, le yimeko endikuyo, yaye hayi indlela oluxhobe ngayo utshaba lwam nxamnye nam! Ndiyakubongoza, Thixo wam, ukuba undivise iintlungu eziqatha, ezilingana nezo zandivayo ngexesha lotyando. Ndibhidanise ngokwam kunye nokuzithemba kwam, undixhase ngomonde wakho, kodwa ngaphandle kobubele obunengqiqo. Lo Thixo wokulunga wandinika isicelo sam.

 

Iintlungu ezibukhali zikaSisi. Umonde wakhe.

Ngexesha elithile kamva, uburharha obubi noburhabaxa beza kum ngaphakathi emzimbeni, kwaye lwenzeka kwiindawo ezibuthathaka kakhulu. Ukusuka apho kwavela imithungo ebukhali kangangokuba ndingatsho ukuba yayilingana namanxeba otyando. I-colic enzima yongezwa kuyo.

 

 

(81-85)

 

 

Ebudeni bezi ntlungu, ezathabatha malunga nesiqingatha sosuku ngaphandle kwentuthuzelo ephawulekayo, ndandisoloko ndikulungele ukuphelelwa ngumonde. Ngendenze izihlandlo ezilikhulu ngesinye, ukuba bendiphulukene nombono weNkosi yethu okomzuzwana kwinkanuko yayo. Ndimane ndisithi kuye: Nomonde ka JC, undisizele! Oh Thixo wam ! hayi indlela olunge ngayo kwaye unobubele ngayo ukunika ngokukhawuleza amayeza ahambelana nobubi obukhulu beminqweno, ngakumbi eyona ibalaseleyo!

 

Ingozi yekratshi. Kufuneka ulwe lo mnqweno.

Owu ubudemon bugqwesileyo kwaye ulizothe! Mingaphi na imiphefumlo eniyivunela esihogweni! yintoni umntu? Ngumphunga womsi ophuma emoyeni. Owu ukuba zonke iiprojekthi zakhe, nokuba zezozinikelo kunye nokusindiswa kwemiphefumlo, azikho nto, ukuba injongo ayisulungekanga, kwaye ngenxa yenzuzo yozuko lukaThixo, ngokungazifuneli isiqu sakhe - nokuba akukho nto ngaphandle kwakhe. usindiso kunye nentando kaThixo! Okunene abanjalo baya kuqala ngomoya kaThixo nangokuthobeka kwentliziyo;

yaye baya kuphelela kwikratshi nakwikratshi. Emva koko yonke i-edifice iyachithwa, kwaye iwela esihogweni.

Ndingcangcazela ndingcangcazele kangangamaxesha aliwaka xa ndicinga ngamaqhinga eli rhamncwa likhohlakeleyo libulala lityumze, liyicenga kwaye linika ulonwabo olungekho mthethweni entliziyweni. Lirhamncwa lantoni eli ndithetha ngalo? Asinguye omnye ngaphandle kwethu. Xa ndizigqala ngokwam ngokweemvakalelo zokonakala, ngakumbi ukonakaliswa kwekratshi, ndicinga ukuba akukho nto ehlabathini apha, ukuba umntu angàyi kuva ubunzima, ayiphephe, ancame amadini, ukuze alwe nokutshabalalisa inkanuko; ukuba umntu kufuneka ahlale ephethe iingalo ngesandla ngaphandle kokuyeka kude kube ngumphefumlo wokugqibela wobomi bakhe; kuba akukho bani usemngciphekweni ngaphezu kwalowo ukholelwa ukuba useluxolweni neminqweno yakhe, aze ayithobe yaba yinto engento. Oko kukuthi, umkhonzi kaThixo umele aqhubeke ezilindile, aze aqhubeke esilwa neentshaba zakhe. ukuba bayenza imbonakalo yoxolo, yeha! luxolo lobuxoki. Bayasithela, ezi ntshaba ezinobuqhophololo, kungcono ukuba zisimangalise. Amajoni e-JC ahlala ekulungele ukulwa. Bafuna kuphela uxolo lwengqondo, kunye noxolo kunye noJC, ongukumkani wabalwi.

 

Imvakalelo kaDade yokuthobeka.

Ukuba ndiyazibuza ukuba umntu kufuneka enze njani ukuze azithobe ngokuthobeka okukholisa uThixo, hayi! Andazi ukuba ndenze ntoni na, nokuba mandihambe njani na, kuba andifumani nto ngaphandle  kwamampunge kulo mthombo worhwaphilizo.

Okukhona ndizicingela ngokwam, kokukhona ndifumanisa ukuba ngaphandle koncedo lobabalo lukaThixo, ndiyinto nje engamampunge, yaye kule nto ndifana nedemon engakwaziyo ukwenza nasiphi na isenzo sokuthobeka esikholisa uThixo. bango kuphela obalaseleyo. Yeha! Oh Thixo wam! ndiguqe ezinyaweni zakho, ndigutyungelwe kukudideka kangangokuba andinako ukuzithoba, kule nto ndifana nedemon. Owu Thixo wam ndiya kuzithoba kuba andinakuzithoba. Owu ukuthobeka okungcwele kweJC, umzekelo wam! nguwe othi, ngobabalo lwakho, unxibelelane nam ngawo onke amayeza afanele ukunyanga izifo zam. Kuwe apho ndilindele uncedo noncedo; kuba ekugqibeleni ndibeke usindiso lwam ezandleni zenceba yakho engapheliyo. Ngaphandle kwesihogo, ihlabathi kunye neminqweno yam, ndibeka lonke ithemba lam kuwe, kunye nam ukuze ngenceba yakhe engcwele, phezu kwako nje ukuba andifaneleki kwam, akayi kundonakalisa ngaphandle koncedo, yaye akayi kundigweba  .

Bendingasoze ndigqibe ukuba bendifuna ukwazisa abavumayo yonke imizabalazo eyathi iminqweno yam eyahlukileyo, edibene nezilingo zikasathana, yandisokolisa. Bandihlasela kwasebuncinaneni bam, yaye ndibona kwangaphambili ukuba abasayi kundixolelanisa de ndife.

Into endibangele ukuba ibhalwe apha ngasentla malunga neminqweno yam, kukwazisa kwabo bandikhokelayo ukuba ndilwa njani na kwaye ngayiphi na indlela yokulwa nabo, kwaye ndifunde kubo ukuba andilahlekiswanga yidemon kuyo yonke into. isazela sam. Ndazichaza ngakumbi ngobude, kwiminyaka embalwa edlulileyo, ndaze ndazazisa kumthetheleli wam, owandenza ukuba ndibhale phantsi zonke izibane kunye nolwazi uThixo andinike lona. Kananjalo ndaye ndenza uvumo jikelele kuye, ukuze azazele ngokwakhe izono zam, nokonakala kwesimilo sam.

 

ICANDELO II.

Inkqubela nemiyalelo ngemibandela eyahlukahlukeneyo esele ixutyushwe kwimiqulu eyandulelayo, isihogo, inguquko, ukulunga kukaThixo kuboni abaguquke ngokunyanisekileyo, inani elikhulu labagwetyiweyo, nomgwebo wokugqibela.

Iinkcukacha ngeentuthumbo ezigcinelwe imiphefumlo yehlabathi neyenyama esihogweni. Ukonakala kwentliziyo eyonakaliswe ngumoya wehlabathi.

 

Ekuguleni okukhulu, uDade ukhokelwa ngomoya esihogweni.

Bawo, ndiya kukuxelela into eyandehlelayo ekuguleni kwam, apho iNkosi yandihlisela esihogweni somoya kunye nayo.

 

(86-90)

 

 

INkosi elungileyo yandithanda yonke imihla kumnqamlezo wayo ongcwele, ngomkhuhlane oqhubekayo, ngokuphindaphinda okunobundlobongela kunye nokukhohlela okubuhlungu, ngamanye amaxesha okuhlala iiyure ezinesiqingatha. Nangona kunjalo, nantsi into emangalisa kakhulu: ngeli xesha xa indalo yayihlazekile kwaye ibuhlungu, uThixo wabonakala ethatha indawo ephezulu yomphefumlo wam, njengokungathi unditsalele kuye ngokupheleleyo. Kule meko, lo Msindisi ungcwele wandikhokelela kwiindawo ezinzulu ze-infernal infernal. Andikwazi kuzichaza apha kwizinto ezoyikekayo nezoyikekayo athe uThixo wandazisa ngazo: Ndiya kwandisa ixesha elide emva koko, ukuba uThixo undinike iintsuku ezimbalwa ukuba ndikwazi ukuyibhala phantsi.

Apha ndithetha amagama amabini okanye amathathu kuphela kwinto awandenza ndayibona uThixo, nakwintiyo engathethekiyo anayo kubo bonke abantu behlabathi nabafazi behlabathi. Wandazisa ukuba uya kugocagoca njani na emigutyeni nasembindini wentliziyo, ukuze abone ukuba ayidyojwanga na okanye ayigatywanga ngulo moya wehlabathi.

Ngoko, uThixo wandibonisa, kule ndawo imnyama, njengesithuba esithile esiphantse sazotywa elulwalweni, wandenza ukuba ndiqonde ukuba wawususa kum, okwangoku, umbono owoyikekayo wesihogo; kangangokuba andizange ndiwubone umphefumlo ubandezeleka, yaye andizange ndibone needemon.

 

INkosi yethu imenza abone esihogweni indawo emiselwe imiphefumlo yehlabathi emva komgwebo jikelele.

Intando yeNkosi yethu yayikukundibonisa isohlwayo esibi abaya kohlwaywa ngaso abasehlabathini, ukuba bafe bengenakuguquka ngokwenene nangaphandle kokuguquka. INkosi yethu yayisoloko ithetha nam ngokungathi sikufutshane nomgwebo. “Jonga,” yatsho kum, “eli litye ligqwethekile kwaye lakhiwe kakubi. Emva komgwebo wam, ingalo yempindezelo yobulungisa bam iya kuvuna yonke imiphefumlo yehlabathi edityaniswe nemizimba yabo. ndiya kuzixina, zibe lukhuni ngaphezu kwezitena eziko; Emva koko, uThixo wandibonisa indlela awayevutha ngayo amadangatye aqwengayo awayeya kubaselwana ngawo ngonaphakade  .

 

Ubona enye indawo egcinelwe abaqhekeki, i-schismatics, abanquli-zithixo kunye nemiphefumlo yenyama.

UThixo wandenza ndazibona ezinye iindawo ezinzulu, ezibe zigcinelwe njengenzonzobila yamanzi anodaka, ebila ngokungapheziyo njengamaqamza amakhulu, enyuka phezulu. Yathi ke iNkosi yethu kum: “Nazi iindawo ezingonwabanga apho iya kuphoswa khona imiphefumlo ezinikele kweli hlabathi kuzo zonke iintlobo zenkanuko neziyolo zenyama. “Ndandisazi ukuba le ndawo yeyabo bonke abaqhekeki, abaqhekeki nabanqula izithixo, kwaye ekugqibeleni yabo bonke abo benza ububi bazo zonke iintlobo, okanye abazenza, ngokwentando yabo, kuzo zonke iziyolo zabo, ngokungathi bafuna ukudelela amandla onke. nobungangamsha bukaThixo.

Ngelo xesha iNkosi yethu yathi kum: "Kule varvassière enzulu (1), oyibona ibila ngumsindo womsindo wam, baya kunyathelwa kwaye baxove phantsi koxinzelelo lwempindezelo yam. Ndiya kulizalisa eli chibi ngazo zonke iintlobo zokubandezeleka okuqanjwe ngobulungisa bam. Ndandisazi ukuba kule ngxondorha kuya kuba kushushu njengomlilo, kwaye kubila ngokonakala, indibano yosulelo, imiphefumlo yabo ngemizimba yabo iyakusela amanzi amade ngonaphakade.

(1) Iindidi zebhoyila ezinkulu nezinzulu.

 

Nazi ezinye iinkcukacha zemibandela endithe ndathetha ngayo ngaphambili, xa iNkosi yethu yandihlisela esihogweni ngomoya, apho yandibonisa khona izinto ezininzi malunga neentuthumbo zabangakholwayo  .

 

Ukonakala kweentliziyo zemiphefumlo yehlabathi.

INkosi yethu, ngelixa ililela abantu behlabathi, abathe, nangona uthando lwayo kunye nalo lonke uphando lwayo, baya kuphuthuma esihogweni, yandibonisa iintliziyo ezininzi eziphilileyo, ezingathi ziyaphila, kwaye zenyama, yathi kum: " Jonga kwaye uqwalasele ukuba yintoni isilonda esi sifo ezi ntliziyo, akukho nto iphilileyo. Ndaqala ndakhangela, ndabona eyona ibhuqiweyo; Ndabona isilonda esimnyama esinenxeba esithe sangena ngaphakathi entliziyweni.

INkosi yethu yathi kum: “Vula le ntliziyo. Wayesongelwe ngesikhumba esamenza ukuba athathe kwaye agcine ukumila kwentliziyo. Xa ndisiya kuyivula, yazivulekela yodwa; yayibolile yonke ngaphakathi, yaye yayiyeyona nto yoyikekayo ukuyibona. Ndabona kuphela igazi elimnyama, eligobileyo, elibolileyo, inyama emdaka. “Yabona, mntwana wam, itsho iNkosi kum, ifanekisela le miphefumlo yehlabathi; ngaphandle babonakala bephila kwaye beyidlalisa imizimba yabo, bephila kwaye bezondla ngoyolo lwehlabathi nolwenyama; kodwa bafile emehlweni am, nangenxa yobumnandi banaphakade endandibalungiselele bona; bazinukisile kum ngobugwenxa

ukuba benza yonke imihla, yintoni na usulelo emanyumnyezi endikubonise kule ntliziyo ibolileyo. Qaphela, iNkosi yethu indixelela kwakhona, kule ntliziyo yokuqala, ukufana kwayo yonke imiphefumlo yehlabathi ezinikele ngokupheleleyo kuzo zonke iziyolo zenyama, nabangenako ukuphila ngenye indlela. Ulindele njani, wongezelela, ukuba ndithatha

 

 

(91-95)

 

 

Ndingumphefumlo ongcolileyo, ukuba awuguquki ngokugqibeleleyo kum, kwaye ukuba akenzi inguquko enyanisekileyo? Jonga kwaye uqwalasele imeko yezinye iintliziyo. »

 

Amanqanaba ahlukeneyo orhwaphilizo.

Ndaqalisa ukubabukela. Kwakukho isilonda esiqalisileyo; yayingene nzulu kangangokuba yaya ngqo embindini wentliziyo. Ndabona abanye ababefakwe kubo isilonda esiqhenqethayo saza sembiwa kwinyama ephilayo. Eyokugqibela endayijongayo yayinesilonda esiqhenqethayo kuphela phezu kolusu, ngoko  kwakulula ukusisusa nokusinyanga. INkosi yethu yandicacisela intsingiselo yento endiyiqapheleyo kwezo ntliziyo; ngokubhekisele kowesibini, yathi kum, Lo uphantse ufane newokuqala. Umphefumlo wakhe usafumana ubunzima obuncinane bokuzifica kuzo zonke iziyolo zehlabathi; kodwa ngelishwa ! yena iintlungu ziya kuphela ngokukhawuleza. Intliziyo owayibona apho, nalapho inxeba lalisagrumba enyameni kuphela, limele, Itsho iNkosi yethu, imiphefumlo eqalisa ukuzinikela ngokuvumayo ehlabathini. Ngokubhekiselele kowokugqibela, owayenesilonda esinqeni, umela imiphefumlo elithiyileyo ihlabathi, nabenza konke okusemandleni abo ukuze bazahlule kulo, kodwa abathi, ngelishwa, babandakanyeke kulo. ngokwabo. Kanye njengokuba umntu engenako ukubeka umnwe wakhe emlilweni ngaphandle kokutsha, ngoko le miphefumlo ihlwempuzekileyo ayinakuncokola nabantu behlabathi ngaphandle kokufumana amabala kubo. »

 

Ingozi yorhwebo nehlabathi kubantu abazahlulele kuThixo.

INkosi yethu yongezelela yathi: “Kukho olunye uhlobo lwabantu (njengomzekelo, abantu becawa, okanye abantu abangcwalisiweyo kuThixo ngezibhambathiso ezindilisekileyo) abadibana ngamabona-ndenzile nabantu behlabathi, enoba ngabazali okanye ngabahlobo, ababachwayitisa kuphela ngabo. nezinto zehlabathi, okanye ngeziyolo zabo. Ukuba aba bantu bazinikele kuThixo baphulaphula ngovuyo, baze bayigcine incoko iqhubeka, baya kona ngakumbi kunabantu bentsapho, abathi maxa wambi banyanzeleke ukuba babonane entsatsheni, nokuva iintetho eziye maxa wambi zibe zezehlabathi. kungenjalo. Aba bantu balithiyile ihlabathi nemithetho yalo.

 

Ukuziphatha kwemiphefumlo ethiye ihlabathi ehlala phakathi kwehlabathi.

Kunokuba bakunandiphe oko, bavala iindlebe zabo kwilizwi leenyoka ezinomlingo zesihogo, kwaye endaweni yolonwabo baziva benosizi olukrakra ezintliziyweni zabo. Ukuba banokuthi ngobuchule barhoxe phantsi kwesizathu esithile, okanye bayiguqule le ncoko iyintlekele ibe yenye yokungakhathali, apho uThixo angakhubekiyo, bangxamele ukwenza inzuzo ngayo. »

 

Kulula ukususa ibala elifunyenwe lurhwebo lwehlabathi.

INkosi yethu yandixelela ukuba yayingowokugqibela owayenesilonda esiqhenqethayo, kwaye kuncinci kakhulu okufunekayo ukusinyanga: kwaye le yindlela eyandicacisela ngayo into ekufuneka iqondwe yile nto incinci. AmaKristu alungileyo  awoyikayo ukukhubekisa uThixo, alithiyileyo ihlabathi, imilinganiselo yalo neentuthuzelo zalo, nakubazali bawo, afuna kuphela uvumo olulungileyo nokuphononongwa ngaphakathi kwawo, ngesenzo sokuzisola. Nantsi ke isilonda esiphezu kolusu sisusiwe, kwaye intliziyo yahlanjululwa.

 

Kufuneka ukubaleka ihlabathi.

Kodwa omnye uya kuthi, Le miphefumlo nithi inesilonda esiqhenqethayo ayonanga; baziphatha njengabangcwele; abanye baya kongeza: nkqu nakwizinto ezingento. Kulungile ! Ndiba kunjengoko utshoyo ukuthi, ababonanga ekuthetheni kwabo nabantu behlabathi; noko basoloko besona, nokokuba bathe ngokuthandabuza, mhlawumbi ngokuthabatha ukudla phakathi kwaba bantu, nokuba kukubuya kwabo. kwiintsapho zabo, apho babeqinisekile ukuba baya kubafumana abantu abazaliswe ngumoya wehlabathi. INkosi yethu ayizange

ukungakhathalelwa kwezi zithethe zehlabathi; ngokuchaseneyo, usoloko ekhala kuthi: libaleke ihlabathi . Yeha! kucingelwa ukuba kuyathetheleleka ngale mfuneko yokuya kubona izalamane okanye abahlobo, ngaphandle kokuqwalasela ukuba yintoni na abanayo. Siya kubo; nimelwe kukuthini na ke ukuwamkela ekhaya: kukugcina ilizwi likaThixo na? Kunokuba aphephe ukunxulumana nehlabathi, ubani ubangenisa endlwini yakhe. Bonke abo bangafumani sono kule hambo, ndibabizela emgwebeni kaThixo, kwaye baya kubona ukuba baya kuviwa na.

 

Ingozi yezidlo kunye neendibano zehlabathi, ngakumbi kubantu beCawe. Izikhalazo zeJC malunga noku.

Ukuba iNkosi yethu ifumana isono kubantu behlabathi, kwanakwabo balithiyileyo ihlabathi, kuya kuba yintoni na ngabantu becawe abafunyanwa ezidlweni, kwiindibano zehlabathi, baze ke benze ubukhazikhazi, apho banyanzelekileyo ukuba bamkele zonke iicawa. abantu behlabathi? Ukuba ndithetha ngabantu beBandla, ndithetha ngabo ngokubanzi, ndingazi namnye; Ndiyazi kuphela into athe uThixo wandazisa ngayo, nguye ondinyanzela ukuba ndithethe ngayo.

Ngaba uThixo unqwenela ukuba bonke abo bangcwalisiweyo kuThixo, kwaye abaye benza iimpazamo ngokuzibandakanya nomoya wehlabathi, banokuva izikhalazo ukuba i-JC isasaza malunga nokulahlekelwa kwemiphefumlo yabo! Nantsi into ayithethayo: “Ndabondla ndaza ndabondla abantwana, endibaphatha njengentandane; Ndazithatha

eso sihlwele sehlabathi esiyindlela yentshabalalo; Ndabaphakela, ndabatyeba etafileni yam; Ndiya kuthi, Ndibabale phezu kobabalo, ndaba yityebi kumacala onke ngobubele bam nangeenceba zam; Ke bona abakhohlakeleyo bandinikela ikhosi; bangakwicala leentshaba zam, balwa nam. Iintsika  endandizimisele ukuxhasa icawa yam ziyashukuma yaye ziyadilizwa. Ngaba oku kukuqina ebendikulindele, emva kweenceba ezingaka endibanike zona?  Wena Sirayeli, zintanda zam, uphangiwe, uphangwe ngabo  endakunikayo

INkosi yethu yandinika ukuqonda ukuba izikhalazo zayo zazibhekiswa kubo bonke abantu ababekwizikhundla apho kukho ulawulo lwemiphefumlo; owathi ngelishwa wamisela umzekelo ombi; abathi, ngokuziphatha kwabo, bakhubekise abatsha nabadala ngokufanayo, baze bazilibale ngemisebenzi yelizwe labo.

 

§. II.

Uloyiko kunye noloyiko lwesazela oluphefumlelwa yidemon kuDade ukuba limenze aphelelwe lithemba. Intuthuzelo kunye nemiyalelo awayifumana kwiNkosi yethu.

 

USathana uzama ukuqhubela uDade ukuba aphelelwe lithemba. Uyoyisa.

Bawo nantsi enye intlungu endayivayo ekutshutshisweni ngusathana. Xa, ngentando kaThixo, ndaphuma kule ndawo yobumnyama, eli rhamncwa lingenasiphelo, utshaba lwethu oluqhelekileyo, lwafuduswa ngumsindo ngokuchasene nam, lubona oko iNkosi yayindibonisile, kwaye ikwazi oko yayikucela kum: yile ndoda inamandla,

Ondisukelayo; ndonganyelwe phantsi kobunzima bezona ntlungu ziqatha kunye neentlungu, kwaye phantse yonke imihla, ndabandezeleka emva kokulwa kwemvelo ekruqulayo, ndidiniwe kukubandezeleka, kwaye ndatyhalwa ukuya kumda; Uxhakamfule utshaba lwam ukuba lulwe nam. Esi silo singenasiphelo sazalisa ingqondo yam ngomphunga walo ombi kunye nendyikitya yokufa, senza mnyama umbono wam ngobumnyama obungqingqwa, kwaye undikhumbuza ngekhulu lezinto ebendingafanelanga ukuba ndizenze ngenxa yomsebenzi wesisa. Ekuphakameni kokuthuthwa komkhuhlane wam, wadlala ibhola kunye nam, endiphosa kwaye endiguqula njengoko ethanda; kodwa xa ingqiqo yabuyela kum, ndazihlolisisa ukuze ndicele uxolo kuThixo. Waphinda wayiphinda-phinda imizamo yakhe yokundiphosa phezu kwengxondorha, kundenza ndiqonde ukuba ndandikwinqanaba lokufa, kwaye kwakungekho themba lokuya kuvuma izono. Ndaziva ndiphelelwa ngamandla ukuthembela kwam kuThixo, nentshukumo eyandiqhubela ekubeni ndiphelelwe lithemba njengoko ndandizibona ndiphoswe kumgxobhozo owoyikekayo wezono zam. Ndandula ke, phakathi kobumnyama bam, ndabhenela kuThixo olungileyo nakwiNtombi Enyulu; Bendimcenga ngentliziyo yam yonke ukuba angandivumeli ndife ndingavumanga.

Kulapha apho andinako ukuncoma kakhulu ukulunga nenceba kaThixo wam. Ngaphantsi kweeyure ezingamashumi amabini anesine umlungiseleli ofanelekileyo weNkosi uyafika, endilungiselela kwaye andinike iViaticum engcwele. Ngokulunga nangobabalo lomthendeleko, ngezikhanyiso nangesiluleko somvumisi, uThixo, ngondwendwelo lwakhe olungcwele, wawasusa onke amathandabuzo am nazo zonke iintsizi zam, wabuchitha ubumnyama bam, walubuyisela kum olo xolo lumnandi nolo kuzithemba kuthambileyo. womntwana kuyise olungileyo. Ngaphezu kwako konke, wandibuyisela oko kukhanya kuntle okukhanyise ingaphakathi lam lonke kwaye kwagxotha ubumnyama.

 

Uhlaselo olutsha lweedemon. Iyasiphazamisa isazela sakhe.

Nangona kunjalo uSathana, lo unamandla oxhobileyo, wafunda kwaye wahlola ukuba yintoni na indlela anokundiphazamisa ngayo. Mna ke, ndingazi ukuba olu tshaba lukhohlakeleyo lwalulujongile ukonakala kwam, ndachitha iintsuku ezintathu okanye ezine ndibulela ngenxa yoncedo endilufumene kuThixo wam. Ngenye intsasa, ngequbuliso, umlo waqala ngentshukumo kwindawo engezantsi eyashukuma ngokungakhululekanga ukuya kuzihlola. Sathi kum isazela sam, Uzenza akunyamezeleki ekukhalazeni kwakho, ubakhubekise abo bakukhonzayo, usuke waba ngumthwalo, ukruqukile kubo, ubanika ithuba lokuqumba: woyizisa yonke le nto phambi koThixo. Kwangelo xesha undijula ​​ngomphunga omnyama, ndithetha ukuba ndizele bubumnyama obugqume ukuqonda kwam. Ndaye ndaqonda ukuba yayileli rhamncwa elalisandifuna zirhwebeshe kwimigibe yayo. UThixo undibabale ukuba ndikhawuleze ndibhenele kuye, ndikhale ngamandla am onke ndibongoza uncedo lwakhe. Ndithe, Nkosi yam, khawuleza undincede; musani ukulibala, ngokuba ndiya kutshabalala. Kangangemizuzu embalwa kwamkholisa uThixo ukuba andivumele ndikhale ndilwe notshaba lwam.

 

INkosi yethu ibonakala kuye. Uyamthuthuzela aze amfundise.

Kodwa ekugqibeleni, emva kokudubuleka kaninzi kuThixo, kunye nokukhala okuphindwe kabini, ngequbuliso lo Msindisi uthandekayo (kungekhona ngobabalo oluqhelekileyo, oko kukuthi ngentshukumo yobuthixo, okanye ngesidima sokholo, kungekhona ngobabalo olungaqhelekanga lwalo Thixo wendalo. ukulunga)

 

 

 

 

(101-105)

 

 

Wabonakala kum njengomeyisi owoyisileyo, nendoda enamandla ekhupha omnye ongaphantsi kwayo.

Nanga amazwi iNkosi Yethu yawabhekisa kumphefumlo wam owothukileyo: “Woyika ntoni na, ntombi yam? yini na ukuba umbandezele? Andikubaleleli nencinane kuwe ezintweni zonke ongcikivwayo ngazo; ndamxolela yonke into; Andikuqumbelanga. “Owu Thixo! owayenokukhawula intabalala yentuthuzelo nokukhanya kwangaphakathi apho la mazwi angcwele andizalisa ngako! Andizange ndifumane amazwi aneleyo okuzithoba phambi koThixo, ndicele uxolo kuye ndize ndimbulele. UMsindisi wam othandekayo, ngokulunga kwakhe okunyulu, nangokuthobeka kwakhe okukhulu, wahlala ixesha elithile nam ukuze andifundise ngawo onke amaqhinga kasathana, namaqhinga awawafaka ezingqondweni zabantu ababenokulunga nothando lokulunga.  ndikhonze.

 

Izenzo zokuphana azimkholisi kakhulu usathana. Wenza umgudu wokubathintela.

INkosi yethu yandilumkisa ukuba ndilumkele uninzi lwabantu abasondela kum, abangaphakathi nabangaphandle, kuba usathana wayesoloko ejonge ukuba abenze babeke ezintethweni zabo into efanelekileyo yokuthwala inkathazo kum ngaphantsi; kananjalo iNkosi yethu yandixelela ukuba ndilumkise oomama bam egameni layo, ukuba umtyholi wayenomsindo kubo; okokuqala, ngenxa yoxolo kunye nomanyano kwi-JC yothando, esathi sobathathu kunye, kwaye wayezimisele ukuphula olu xolo kwaye alahle phakathi kwethu ingxabano kunye nokwahlukana, ngokuphambene nothando, kwaye oko kungamkholisiyo uThixo; ukuba oko kwakungamkholisi kakhulu umtyholi yayi, okwesibini,  zizilumkiso zesisa nezobuzalwana esasizinika omnye nomnye; eyesithathu, isimo kunye namalungiselelo esasiwenza, ukubuyela elubabalweni noThixo.

 

Umthetho wokulandela kwiincoko ezimiselwe uDade yiNkosi yethu.

Nantsi into eyacetyiswa yiNkosi yethu kubomi bam babucala ukuba indilumkise ngokuchasene nemigibe kasathana.

“Ezincokoleni wathi kum, nakwiintetho zakho zonke, thetha kanye ngezinto eziyimfuneko, nangento enokulungiselela uzuko lwam;

eluthandweni nasekuqeqesheni ummelwane wethu. Uthetha kakhulu  kwimibandela yokungakhathali, ingakumbi apho ukholelwa ukuba akukho ngozi  .

Thula. Xa kuthe kwathethwa into eninzi phambi kwakho, vala iindlebe zakho, uzithobe phambi kwam, ungaphenduki ke ukuba intetho leyo ilungile, imbi, ukuba ziyandikhubekisa, kusini na; kodwa uyilahle yonke njengesaqhwithi esidlulayo  ”

 

Akukho sono sokukhalaza xa ubani ebandezeleka. INkosi yethu ithathela ingqalelo yonke into xa intliziyo iphelele kuye.

INkosi yethu yandazisa, malunga nezikhalazo zendalo, ukuba umtyholi wandibeka ngesono, ukuba akukho bubi, kuba kungokwemvelo ukukhalaza.

Wathi kum, Ukuba bendifuna, ndingakubabala ngobabalo endalunika abangcwele bam, ngokukodwa kubafeli-nkolo bam, abathi, phakathi kwentlungu yabo engathethekiyo, bayoyisa indalo nayo yonke indalo yakhe. izikhalazo. Babengenakuyenza loo nto ngaphandle kobabalo olukhethekileyo. Ke nina, ukuba ndaninika olu lubabalo, naba neentlungu zenu nithe cwaka, ningenakukhalazelwa yimvelo, uMtyholi ngendinihendile ekuqhayiseni nasekuboneni. Kungoko ke, mntwana wam, ndiyazi into elungele wonke umntu, nditsho nasekwabelweni kwenceba yam. Yonke into inceda lowo undithandayo. Xa intliziyo ingcwaliswe ngokupheleleyo kuthando lwam, ndijonga zonke iimbandezelo zomzimba nengqondo, kuzo zonke iincwina kunye nazo zonke izikhalazo ezidibeneyo ezibangelwa ukungaphumeleli kobomi bomntu ofayo: konke oko kubalwa kwaye kuyamkholisa uthando lwam. »

INkosi yethu yathi kum: "Xelisa imiphefumlo yam ethembekileyo, abangenako ukunqanda izikhalazo zendalo ehlala ibuhlungu: bandinika inani lezi zikhalazo endaweni yenani lezenzo zothando lwam oluhlambulukileyo olufunwa ziintliziyo zabo rhoqo. Kukwalungile ukongeza izenzo zokuzisola ngokwenene, ezithetha ngothando lwam. Yindlela encomekayo kakhulu yokoyisa utshaba. Nazi izixhobo endininika zona zokulwa nalo: Lindani nithandaze. Indlela yokoyisa le ngonyama kukuzincamathela ngokungenakonakala kum nakuthando lwam; ukuthambekela ngentliziyo yakhe yonke nangomphefumlo wakhe wonke ukundithanda ngokugqibeleleyo ngakumbi, nokuzibandakanya kumyalelo ongcwele wothando lwam lwesisa esigqibeleleyo sommelwane wam. »

Yatsho iNkosi kum, isithi, Musa ukoyika, ntombi yam; kodwa ndifuna usebenze ngayo kwaye uyigqibe ngamandla akho onke. »

§. III.

Imibuzo Yezovumo. Ulungiselelo olungcwele, ukusuka kubabingeleli ukuya kwinkundla yezohlwayo. Ububele nothando lukaThixo kwaboni abaguquka ngokwenene.

 

Bawo, ndiyakuxelela into endiyibonileyo kum ngaphakathi.

 

 

(106-110)

 

 

ngesihlandlo semibuzo emininzi malunga nokuvuma izono.

 

Xa kungekho mbingeleli xa efile, ubani akanyanzelwanga, kwanokuba akufanelekanga, ukuba avume izono zakhe kubantu behlabathi.

Ndazibona ngenye imini ndikwinkampani apho babexambulisana ngokuvuma izono. Ndaxelelwa: Dadewethu, ukuba ubusecicini lokufa, kwaye awukwazi ukuya kuvuma izono kumfundisi ovunyiweyo, kuya kufuneka uvume kumfundisi wehlabathi, kwaye utyhole izono zakho ngokuthobeka. UThixo uya kukholiswa, nangona ihlabathi lalingenawo amandla okukunika ukuxolelwa. Ndasikhaba esi sicelo, ndisithi asifanele ukwenziwa konke konke: ukuba, xa kunjalo, ndiya kuzivuma kuThixo, ndicele uxolo kuye ngentliziyo yam yonke.

Ndithe ndakuzibona ndindedwa, ndabuyela ngaphakathi kum phakathi koThixo nam, ndaza ndacingisisa ngentetho endandizithethile. UThixo undazise ngale nto: Asinto ilungileyo ukuyenza esi senzo; UThixo akafuni kuthobeka ngolo hlobo. INkosi yethu indixelela ukuba ukususela ekuqaleni kweCawa yakhe kude kube ngoku, umtyholi wazama ukutshabalalisa uvumo abalwenzayo abathembekileyo kubalungiseleli bakhe; ukuba, ngenxa yoko, wasebenzisa zonke iintlobo zobuqhetseba nezizathuso zobuxoki ukuze abenze bawexuke.

Umntu ofayo unako, kwaye kufuneka, uxelele umhlobo yonke into efunekayo ukubeka imicimbi yentsapho yakhe, ukulungisa ukungabi nabulungisa kwakhe, njl.

Noko ke, nantsi imeko endiphila ngayo kuThixo yaye uThixo akholiswa yiyo

: umzekelo, kubahlobo ababini abadityaniswe ngamatyathanga othando kwinkolo yobuKatolika, omnye uzifumana emangalisiwe xa sele efile, engakwazi ukufumana naluphi na uncedo oluvela kubabingeleli abalungileyo; le ndoda ihlwempuzekileyo esifayo ivakalelwa kukuba isazela sayo sothukile kwaye ixhalabile malunga nemibandela eliqela yentsapho: kungoko ithi, ngokokubona kwam ekuthandeni kukaThixo, ityhile imibandela yesazela sayo kumhlobo wayo osenyongweni. UThixo undibonise abo anokubabeka kuye

: izimangalo, izityholo zabantwana, ukubuyiswa, ekugqibeleni, ngokubanzi naliphi na ishishini apho isazela sibandakanyeka, kwaye kuyimfuneko ukuyifumanisa nabanye; kodwa into eyalelweyo nguThixo le ndoda isifayo kukungabi nanjongo yakuzivuma okanye ukuzityhola ngeziphoso zakhe njengoko ebeya kwenza oguqukileyo ezinyaweni zombingeleli. Ukuba ubile, makangasixeleli ngolo hlobo eso sono, kodwa athi kuphela: Ndinetyala elikhulu kumntu onjalo; ndiyakubongoza ukuba umanelise ngokulunga kwam; yaye, ngokomzekelo, ukuba baye benza ubusela ndawonye, ​​unako yaye ufanele amxelele, embongoza ukuba abuye naye. Ukuba ke lo mntu uselefile, wanyelisa abantu abathile, wabadubaduba ngenxa yesimo sakhe, wothi kwangokunjalo ayifumane into ayenzileyo kummelwane wakhe, ukuba ayithethe into ebubuxoki, ayithethe kwaba bantu;

Kodwa zonke izono ezifihlakeleyo athe wazenza emfihlekweni lo mntu ubhubhayo, makangathethi ngazo kumhlobo wakhe, nakulo naliphi na ilizwe, nokuba ungcwele kangakanani na. Umele azivuyise ngokuzohlwaya okukhulu, avume, azityhole, emfihlekweni wentliziyo yakhe, kuThixo, acele uxolo kuye ebukrakra bomphefumlo wakhe, ngenxa yazo zonke izono zobomi bakhe, ngakumbi ezo aziva ngazo. enetyala ukususela ekuvumeni kwakhe izono zokugqibela enomnqweno wokwenene wokuvuma izono kumbingeleli ovunyiweyo, ukuba kuvela ithuba; kunye nesigqibo esiqinileyo, ukuba uThixo umbuyisele empilweni, atshintshe ubomi bakhe, ngakumbi ngenxa yothando lukaThixo kunokoyika isihogo. Ndiyabona ke kuThixo, ukuba kubo bonke abafa benobungcwele, benokholo, uthando, nokukholosa ngeenceba zikaThixo,

 

Ububi obuya kwenziwa ngumntu othi, ngaphandle kwemfuneko enkulu, atyhile izono zakhe ezifihlakeleyo komnye umntu.

UThixo undazisile ububi anokuthi abenze umntu xa etyhila izono zakhe ezifihlakeleyo komnye umntu, ngaphandle kwemfuneko enkulu, njengoko ndicacisile ngasentla. Ndiba le ndoda yayisifa yakrexeza, into ke leyo eyaziwa nguThixo yedwa; ukuba uthe wayibhaqa kumhlobo wakhe, uyamhlazisa, aphulukane nodumo lwakhe. Nantsi into ayithethileyo uThixo kum, ukuthi, Kuninzi ke ukonakala, nangaphezu koko, ukuba ubani ulahlekwa lihlazo, njengokulahlekelwa ngummelwane wakhe. UThixo wandazisa ukuba wakugatya oku kuzithoba; kodwa nantsi into malunga nehlazo:

 

UDade uvala umlomo wakhe kumntu ongenambeko othethe ngokuchasene nokuvuma.

Ndazibona sele ndiphakathi kweqela labantu abangakholwayo, othetha ulwimi lwabantu abangahloneli Thixo. Akazange ayeke ukugxeka ababingeleli abalungileyo, kungekho bani unobuganga bokumphazamisa; wathi, kwiintetho zakhe ezingendawo, ukuvuma kolu hlobo lwababingeleli kukulahlekelwa ludumo lwakhe; ukuba la madoda ayephantsi kwazo zonke iintlobo zeziphoso njengabanye: wazivakalisa ngokucacileyo iimvakalelo zakhe, yaye ebonisa ukuba mathidala awayenako ukuzivuma kubo. Waza wayiguqulela intetho yakhe kwizithunywa, wathi uya kuvuma kwisithunywa, ngokuba bezizezemvelo; wabonakala, ngelizwi lakhe, efuna ukungcikiva uThixo ngokungasinikanga  izithunywa zezulu ukuba  sivume.

Mna ke, ndasuka ndeva ukuba ndive amazwi anjalo, ndaza ke ndantlitha? kwaye ndishukunyiswa yinzondelelo endingenako ukuzilungisa ngayo, xa ingumbuzo ngokukodwa wozuko

 

 

(111-115)

 

 

kaThixo nosindiso lwemiphefumlo, ndithi kuye: Ngubani na phakathi kweengelosi, nakwiiserafi, athe uThixo kubo, Abo nibaxolelayo izono zabo baya kuzixolelwa, nabazono nibabambayo baya kubanjwa? UThixo undibabale ukuba inyaniso enamandla ivale umlomo wakhe; kwaye ngaphandle kobuganga bokuphendula nelizwi elinye, wayitshintsha intetho yakhe.

 

Isidima, ubukhulu kunye namandla angcwele ombingeleli kwinkundla yezohlwayo.

Ubawo, malunga nombandela wokuvuma izono, nantsi into eyenzekayo kum ngokukhanya okungaphaya kwendalo, okanye ngakumbi ngesibane sokholo, athe uThixo wawukhanyisela umoya wam nokuqonda kwam ngokuphathelele abalungiseleli bakhe. Ngexesha lesivumo sovumo, ndababona beguqulwe beba nguThixo, ndithetha ngamandla, igunya lobuThixo elinamandla athe uThixo wababeka ngalo kubulungiseleli babo bolawulo. Babemmele ngokufanelekileyo umntu weNkosi yethu JC kwinkundla yabo yomgwebi owongamileyo, ephethe ezandleni zabo isikali sobulungisa nenceba kaThixo, ukuba bahlolisise yaye balinganise zonke izono abazivayo; Oko kubizwa ngokuba bubunzima bengcwele. Benza ntoni aba balungiseleli bafanelekileyo? Bayabagxotha okanye babakhulule abo baguqukayo, ngokweendlela ezilungileyo okanye ezimbi abaziqondayo okanye abazifumanisa kubo. Kodwa, Nkosi yam! mmangaliso ndawubona ngoko! UThixo wandibonisa abalungiseleli ngexesha loxolelo; baphuma ngokwabo ukuze benze kuThixo, ngalo lonke igunya lakhe namandla akhe angenasiphelo; baxolela izono kuThixo; Ndadanduluka ke ezintliziyweni zam, njengoThixo, ndathi, Zibhunga, neentetho zabangendawo, nabangendawo; vula amehlo akho elukholweni nakwinkolo yobuKatolika, kwaye uya kubona imimangaliso emininzi kunye nemimangaliso kuzo zonke iisakramente zethu kunye  neemfihlakalo zethu ezithandekayo.

! INkosi yethu yandazisa ukuba olu hlanga lungakholwayo lungaphezu kwabaFarisi; bathi ukukhanya endaweni yobumnyama, nobumnyama endaweni yokukhanya.

 

Ukutshintsha ngesiquphe ukuba ukulunga kukaThixo kusebenza emiphefumlweni ngexesha ukuxolelwa kombingeleli kwinkundla yezohlwayo.

Bawo, nantsi into malunga nokuvuma izono, kunye nenceba kwabaguqukileyo abalungileyo kwinkundla yenguquko. UMoya kaYehova wandikhokelela entabeni ephakamileyo; apho ndabona ibhili lizele ngumthi owome kakhulu, ukuze utshiswe. Yalungiswa ngendlela eyalungiswa ngayo kwiTestamente eNdala ukuba idle amaxhoba. Ndayazi ke kuThixo ubawo impindezelo yobulungisa bakhe nomsindo wakhe, owaqalisa ukugqabhuka njengokuduma, nomlilo, neendudumo, eziya zaya ngapha nangapha, zajikeleza isibonda. Saba ke ngoko inani elincinane labantu ababeguqe ngamadolo, engekude ukusuka esibondeni; sazolulele iingalo zethu, siphakamisela ezulwini izandla zethu, sidanduluka sisithi: Tarhu, Nkosi! inceba, Thixo wam!

Thixo wam, sicela ukuba usixolele ngenxa yethu nakubantu bakho bonke; yiba nenceba kuthi! Sasilindele ukufa kuphela, umzuzu owawuphawulwe ngumlilo wengqumbo kaThixo owawuwela phezu kwemvuthuluka ukuba uyidle ngephanyazo, yaye sasikholelwa ukuba siya kutsha sonke kwangaloo mzuzu kanye.

Kodwa, Thixo! olunjani utshintsho! Kwangoko sabona itakane elincinane livela, elimalunga nonyaka ubudala, limhlophe lingenabala. Wabonakala phezu kwe-pyre, evezwe njengexhoba emnqamlezweni. Zaphela kwaoko iindudumo nezaqhwithi; sawubona umsindo womgwebi uguquka waba luthando lwentliziyo kabawo, olwathi, lusuka phezulu ezulwini, lufana nempembelelo ethambileyo, nanjengomlilo ongcwele nonobuntu, lwasasazwa phezu kwepire ejikeleze imvana.

Ngoko nangoko, xa sibona inguqulelo enkulu nencinane kangako, saziva sinoxolo olumnandi ezintliziyweni zethu, uvuyo oluphilileyo nentuthuzelo enkulu.

Ngoko ndabhekisa kuThixo, ndisithi kuye: Thixo wam! zithetha ntoni na zonke ezi zinto? Sasicinga ukuba silahlekile, yaye ngequbuliso ukulunga kwakho nenceba yakho kwaba namandla ngaphezu kobulungisa bakho. Wandiphendula ke uThixo, wathi: “Izikreqo zaboni zinyukile zaya etroneni yam, yaye mna bendiya kuyiphanga yonke into ngokobulungisa bam, kodwa ngenxa yenceba yexhwane elilulamileyo elibonakala phezu kwesi sibonda sentuthumbo, idityaniswe kwiimfanelo zakhe nakwidini lakhe idini labaninzi abaguqukileyo, abathobekileyo, nabaguqukileyo ngokwenene, abathi, ngokomzekelo kaKumkani uDavide, bazifumanele kwinkundla yezohlwayo; njengamaxhoba alungele ukubandezeleka kwaye agxothwe ngenxa yothando lwam. Unyana wam ngoko nangoko weza kubanceda ngobulungiseleli bababingeleli ababakhululayo. Olu tshintsho ngequbuliso ulubonileyo lwenzeka kwinkundla yezohlwayo ezintliziyweni ezithi, ziguquke ngokwenene, zifune ukuguqulwa. Ubonile, Nkosi yam, ukuba iindudumo zam zaxhuma ngapha nangapha; le yindlela endilwa ngayo naboni. Ndiyabakhwankqisa, bangcangcazele, bangcangcazele; Ndibangela imibane yam neendudumo zam ukuba zivakalise enzulwini yeentliziyo zabo, kwaye ndiyabaxelela ukuba ukuba abayenzi inguquko ngokukhawuleza, baya kutshabalala bonke. andiyi kubaphosa ngesiquphe umbane wam; Zona iintolo zomsindo wam ziphaphazela, ndilindele ukuba zijike na ndikhalela  inceba. »

 

Luhlobo luni lwesivumo amele asenze umoni olihlazo ngasesangweni lokufa ongenakukwazi ukufumana umbingeleli ovunyiweyo?

Bawo, nalu olunye uhlobo lovumo athe uThixo wandazisa ngalo ngenxa yaboni abazinikeleyo

 

 

(116-120)

 

ngexesha lokuphila kwabo kuzo zonke iintlobo zolwaphulo-mthetho apho uluntu lwalucaphukile. Ukuba umoni onjalo uzifumana sele eza kufa, engenalo naluphi na uncedo kumbingeleli ovunyiweyo, aze achukunyiswe lubabalo oluncamisileyo lwenceba kaThixo, umelwe kukuzivuselela ukuba acaphuke, abe buhlungu kakhulu. bonke ubugwenxa obukrazula intliziyo yakhe; aze ke, ekubeni engenako ukuvuma izono zakhe kumbingeleli, makathi, njengoko uThixo endibonisile, enze uvumo lwakhe ekuhleni ngale ndlela: uya kuhlanganisela kuye intaphane yabantu bazo zonke iindidi zesini, abakubudala obahlukahlukeneyo, nabangaphambili. baya kuqubuda ngemizimba yabo emhlabeni; ukuba akakwazi, ubuncinane entliziyweni nasengqondweni. Kule meko, enenjongo yokuvuma kuBawo onamandla onke, kungekhona kwizidalwa ezimngqongileyo, aze avuswe ngumoya wokholo, azisekele kwiimfaneleko zeJC, nakumoya weBandla, umele athi ngokuvakalayo: Ndiyazivuma kuThixo, uSomandla uBawo; Ndimmangalela kuye ngobugwenxa bam bonke ubomi bam, phambi kwezulu nehlabathi, nakubo bonke abantu abandivayo. Ndiyababongoza ukuba bandithandazele kuThixo. Kufuneka ke ngoko acacise, kangangoko anako, zonke izenzo zolwaphulo-mthetho zasesidlangalaleni zobomi bakhe, nkqu nezona zikhulu, emehlweni abo bakhoyo, enze imbuyekezo ekuhleni ngawo onke amanyundululu awanike wona, aze abuyisele zonke izenzo ezigwenxa azenzileyo. Okulandelayo. UThixo undazise ngale nto: Ukuba lo moni akafanele athi, ekuvumeni kwakhe isono, aphulukane nentliziyo yakhe, okanye angayikhathaleli into yokuba kukuvuma kwakhe ukuzimangalela kuThixo kuphela.

Ukuba le ndoda isisifa, yanelisa konke ebinako, ichitha iintsuku ezimbalwa, mhlawumbi neeyure ezimbalwa eziseleyo kuye, isoloko icela uxolelo kuThixo, ngeenyembezi zokuzisola okukrakra, ndazi kuThixo ukuba nangona ubomi bakhe obungendawo, kufuneka athembele kwinceba yeNkosi, nokuba uThixo uya kumxolela ngokufaneleka kweJC Ewe, uThixo uya kujonga ukuvuma kwakhe esidlangalaleni; uya kuyifumana, xa iya kuba yeyona mpikiswano inkulu, ngaphandle kokuba ekuvumeni kwakhe ngokubanzi wenze konke ukurhoxa kunye nembuyekezo efunwa liBandla.

 

§. IV.

Inani elikhulu labantu behlabathi abagxalathelana ukuya esihogweni mihla le. Ufefe olutsha lwenguquko uThixo alunika aboni, ngaphezu kwako konke ngokubenza balumkise

umgwebo wakhe uyasondela. Ukufa kwabantu behlabathi ngokungaguqukiyo.

 

Kungenzeka ukuba ehlabathini kukho abantu abangenalo lonke ihlabathi okanye amaKristu alungileyo ngokupheleleyo: umzekelo, umntu othanda ubumnandi behlabathi uya kuphulaphula intshumayelo, ngamanye amaxesha ukufunda kakuhle; kananjalo uya kuba ngumvumo olungileyo oya kumbonisa indlela yosindiso. Lo mntu uyabona ukuba uyazigweba ukuba uqhubeka nokulandela ihlabathi ekugqithiseni kwalo. Ukushiya umhlaba ngokupheleleyo ngaphandle kokubuyela kuwo kwaye athi ndlela-ntle yokugqibela akunakwenzeka kuye. Ah! bazakuthini abantu, watsho ethetha yedwa, bazakuthini abantu xa ndingaphinde ndibuyele ebholeni, kwaye xa bengasandiboni kwi comedy? Oko abantu baya kukuthetha ngayo kunye nentlonipho yabantu iyayinqanda; ifumana imeko-bume ethile eyiqhelanisa nayo; uya kuhamba kuphela ehlabathini ngamaxesha ngamaxesha, kwaye ukuba akakwenzi oko yiya apho kuphela kathathu okanye kane ngonyaka, uya kulithulisa ihlabathi, kodwa uya kuhlala ethwele entliziyweni yakhe ukunamathela kunye nothando lwehlabathi. Uya kuvuma izono; umvuma izono, ebona ukuba lo mntu uye wanciphisa kakhulu inani lokutyelela kwakhe emhlabeni, ukholelwa ukuba konke kulungile ukuba asuke kuyo, kwaye intliziyo yakhe ifuna ukuzikhupha kuyo. Umnika uxolelo aze amenze athabathe umthendeleko. Ujongwa njengomphefumlo ongumKristu wokwenene osebenzela usindiso lwakhe okanye ofuna ukwenjenjalo. Kodwa ngelishwa! Yeha! Ndiwuyekela kumgwebo kaThixo ukuba kuya kwenzeka ntoni na. umvuma izono, ebona ukuba lo mntu uye wanciphisa kakhulu inani lokutyelela kwakhe emhlabeni, ukholelwa ukuba konke kulungile ukuba asuke kuyo, kwaye intliziyo yakhe ifuna ukuzikhupha kuyo. Umnika uxolelo aze amenze athabathe umthendeleko. Ujongwa njengomphefumlo ongumKristu wokwenene osebenzela usindiso lwakhe okanye ofuna ukwenjenjalo. Kodwa ngelishwa! Yeha! Ndiwuyekela kumgwebo kaThixo ukuba kuya kwenzeka ntoni na. umvuma izono, ebona ukuba lo mntu uye wanciphisa kakhulu inani lokutyelela kwakhe emhlabeni, ukholelwa ukuba konke kulungile ukuba asuke kuyo, kwaye intliziyo yakhe ifuna ukuzikhupha kuyo. Umnika uxolelo aze amenze athabathe umthendeleko. Ujongwa njengomphefumlo ongumKristu wokwenene osebenzela usindiso lwakhe okanye ofuna ukwenjenjalo. Kodwa ngelishwa! Yeha! Ndiwuyekela kumgwebo kaThixo ukuba kuya kwenzeka ntoni na.

 

Umbono wezilwanyana ezimela abo bathanda izinto zomhlaba kuphela.

UYehova wandisa edlelweni elikhulu, apho kwakukho amadlelo amahle, nentaphane yamahashe, noondlebende, neemeyile; Ndandinexhala lokuba ithetha ukuthini loo nto. Wandazisa ke uThixo, ukuba, phantsi komfanekiselo wezi zilwanyana, bafanekisela abantu ababawayo behlabathi, abathi, ngokweenkanuko zabo, njengaloo marhamncwa angenangqondo, adla utyani, anamathele emhlabeni kuphela, aze ahlanganisele ndawonye igolide nesilivere. kwaaa marhamncwa adla ingca.

 

Indlela ebanzi yentshabalalo; baninzi abahambayo apho.

Emva kwalo mbono, uThixo wandikhokelela kwiindlela ezincinci ezibethwe, eludinini lwendlela enkulu endandingavunyelwanga ukuba ndingene kuyo. Bandimisa

emphethweni ukuze ndibone kwaye ndicinge ngabadlula ngendlela. Yayiyindlela entle kakhulu, inkulu kuneendlela eziqhelekileyo, kwaye yakhiwe ngcono kakhulu; lwaluthe tye, kungekho mgongxo, kungekho ukuphakama, kungekho matye anqabileyo, kungekho nanto inokukhubekisa unyawo. Yayiluyolo kuphela kwindalo ukuhamba ngale ndlela. Mna, endandihamba kwiindledlana ezincinci ezihlala zizele yimithana enameva, ndacela ukuhamba ngale ndlela. Owandikhokelayo wandiphendula: Uyazi na?

 

 

(121-125)

 

 

kakuhle ikhokelela phi? Ikhokelela esihogweni; kubizwa ngokuba yindlela ephakamileyo nephangaleleyo; kwaye indlela ekhokelela eParadesi iyindlela emxinwa kwaye izaliswe ngamakhakakhaka namakhakakhaka  .

Kwangaxeshanye ndabona inkitha yabantu abadlula ngendlela, kunye nesiphithiphithi esikhulu sabantu besini nesini, iinqwelo, iinqwelo, neenqwelo zonke ezinokuthi zisetyenziswe ngabantu xa behamba. Kwakukho abathile ababekhwele amahashe; inkoliso yabo ibihamba ngeenyawo; babebaninzi kangangokuba indlela yayizele ngabo; Ndabona abantu qha. Kwakukho amanye awo onke amazwe, abo bonke ubugcisa, kwaye phantse yonke iminyaka. Kwakukho abefundisi, iimonki, oonongendi kwanabantwana abasusela kwiminyaka esithoba ukuya kwelishumi ubudala. Ayebonakala apho amahlwempu, kodwa ngenani elincinane, ngokumalunga nelona nani lincinane lababingeleli. Inxalenye enkulu yesi sihlwele sinelishwa yayingabantu abazizityebi, abantu behlabathi nabentlalontle, ngokufutshane kubo bonke abo babenamathele ezintliziyweni nasemoyeni.

Nantsi indlela ababehamba ngayo: iinqwelo kunye nabo bonke abasebenzi bahamba ngesantya esikhulu kangangokuba benza ingxolo eyoyikekayo. Abo bakhwele amahashe babaleka bekhefuzela; abo bahamba ngeenyawo bahamba ngamandla abo onke. Zonke ezi zixhobo zakhanya njengasehlabathini. Ndibone ubuyokoyoko obumangalisayo, iinqwelwana ngaphambili nangasemva, kwaye ecaleni kwezi nqwelo kukho intaphane yabantu, behlabathi ngobungangamsha bempahla yabo, kwaye beqhubela phambili ngobukhazikhazi obufanayo besiya kwiibhola nakwiindibano. Yaba ngumbono onomtsalane, yaye inkitha yawo yayigubungela phantse yonke indlela. Sabona kuphela izinto eziqaqambileyo kuzo zonke

izabelo; kodwa yayingabo kuphela ababengengabo abehlabathi okanye abehlabathi abababonayo.

Ndabuza ukuba ngoobani aba, kwaye babebaleka phi kabuhlungu? INkosi yethu yandixelela ukuba aba bantu babalekela esihogweni; kwakubonakala ngathi, ukubona aba bantu behlabathi besenza ngexesha lobomi babo, nokubabona bebaleka ulonwabo lwehlabathi olukhokelela esihogweni, ukuba bangxamele ukubalekela ilishwa labo, ngokungathi boyika ukungabikho. ngokwaneleyo, okanye ngokungathi boyika ukuba isihogo sasibaleka kubo.

UNdikhoyo wongezelela wathi: “Ndikubonisile intuthumbo ezibalindele kulo mlilo unkwantyisayo; Anizange nimbone ebuya evela esihogweni; kodwa bonke baya khona bengabuyi.  »

 

Ubabalo olutsha iNkosi yethu elinika ihlabathi ukuba ligcine imiphefumlo ingaweli esihogweni.

Yatsho iNkosi kum, ukuthi, Ndiya kuwanika elimiweyo, nehlabathi, nezizwe zakowethu zonke, ubabalo olutsha, ukuba ndibahlangule kubushushu bezohlwayo zam, ngenxa yoko ndininike imibono  emininzi ndikutyhilele izinto ezininzi, nokokuba ndikunyule ukuba upapashe konke oku ukuze ukwenze kwazeke eBandleni lam; kungenxa yezi zizathu ndikunyanzele ukuba uyibhale.  »

 

UDade okhethwe nguThixo, kwasebuntwaneni bakhe, ukuba alumkise aboni  ngokusondela komgwebo  jikelele.

Ndakunyula kwasebuncinaneni bakho, nangokuhlonela aboni, ukuze unqande inkitha ewela esihogweni imihla ngemihla. Kukho abaya kumangaliswa kuko konke endibabhengezayo, nezilumkiso endibanika ukuba bathethe. Mabangamangaliswa; nasi esinye isilumkiso: umgwebo jikelele usondele, kwaye imini yam enkulu iyeza. Ndinikela ezi zilumkiso kuboni ukuze baguquke, kwaye kungenxa yesi sizathu ukuba ndikupapashe oku. Ngoko ke kwakhona ndithi kuni, Ewe, umgwebo uyeza; Yeha! maye! Yeha! Anjani wona amashwa ekufikeni kwayo! Bangaphi abantwana abaya kubhubha bengekazalwa! Bangaphi abantu abaselula nakweyiphi na isini abaya kutyunyuzwa kukufa phakathi kohambo lwabo! Abantwana abancancisayo baya kutshabalala kunye nonina. Yeha ke abo bangabehlabathi, yeha ke abantu abangendawo, ekugqibeleni yeha kubo bonke aboni abaya kuhlala behleli esonweni bengenzanga nguquko! »

Xa iNkosi yethu isithi umgwebo ukufuphi, ithetha ukuba yonke into ikufuphi phambi koThixo; kwaye xa esithi imini yakhe enkulu iyeza, asikuko ukuba iza ngokufutshane; kodwa ndiyakwazi ke kuThixo ngomgwebo wokugqibela.

Ndazibona ndiphambi koThixo. Ndeva ilizwi elidudumayo lisithi: Yeha, yeha, yeha kwinkulungwane yokugqibela! Ndaqonda, ngeli lizwi linamandla, ukuba la mashwa ayeya kufika ekusondeleni komgwebo, nakumgwebo ngokwawo. andithethi nelizwi; njengoko uYehova wandazisayo, ukuba akukho namnye emhlabeni oya kwazi ngokuqinisekileyo ukuba yiyiphi na imini okanye nguwuphi na unyaka unyana womntu aya kuhla ngawo emhlabeni ukuze agwebe wonke umntu, andibanga sabuza.

 

Udade uya kugweba, ngokokukhanya kukaThixo, ngexesha elingekude ukuba kufike umgwebo jikelele.

Kodwa nantsi into afuna ndiyibone kuThixo ekukhanyeni kwakhe. Ndaqalisa ukujonga ekukhanyeni kukaThixo kwinkulungwane eza kuqala ngo-1800; Ndabona ngoku kukhanya ukuba umgwebo wawungekho, kwaye wawungayi kuba yinkulungwane yokugqibela. Ndithathele ingqalelo, phantsi kwesi sikhanyiso esifanayo, inkulungwane ye-1900, kude kube sekupheleni,

 

 

(126-130)

 

 

ukubona ngokuqinisekileyo ukuba iya kuba yeyokugqibela na. INkosi yethu yandazisa, yaza kwangaxeshanye yandenza ndathandabuza enoba kwakuya kuba sekupheleni kwenkulungwane ka-1900, okanye kuleyo yowama-2000. Kodwa into endiyibonileyo kukuba, ukuba umgwebo uza kufika kwinkulungwane ye-1900. , iya kufika kuphela ekupheleni; kwaye ukuba  le nkulungwane iyadlula, eyama-2000 ayisayi kudlula ingafikanga, njengoko ndibonile ekukhanyeni kukaThixo  .

 

Aboni abaya kuchaphazeleka kancinane kukubhengezwa komgwebo, kuba kusekude, babizwe umva, nguDade, ngexesha lokufa kwabo okukufutshane.

Aboni baya kuzithuthuzela, bebona ukuba umgwebo usabonakala ukude, bathi, Asiyi kuwabona loo maxesha; siya kukhululwa kumashwa afanele ukubandulele. Aboni abahluphekileyo abakhe bacinge ngamashwa angunaphakade, kwaye ngubani boyika kakhulu abo bexesha, yeha! ukuba uyafa ngaphambi kokuba uyeke iziyolo zehlabathi, yaye ngaphambi kokuba wenze isivumo esihle, liliphi ithemba onokuba nalo ekufeni? Ayililo ihlabathi nesono osishiyayo, lihlabathi nesono esikushiyayo. Ngeli xesha, uziva, yinyani, ukuba uthando kunye nolonwabo onalo entliziyweni yakho luyaphela kwaye luyaphela. Kodwa ngaba kungenxa yokuzisola okukrakra? kungenxa yothando lukaThixo na? Hayi. Le ntlungu ibangelwa kukoyika ukufa aboni abakubona kusondela nangona bona ngokwabo. Kuba ngoko baphelelwa lithemba lokuba ukususela ngoku ukuya phambili ukwanelisa iziyolo zabo, kwaye yinkumbulo yolu lonwabo lwangaphambili olubenza bangene ekuphelelweni lithemba. Yonke into abayibonayo emhlabeni ifanelekile kuphela ukuba ifake ingqumbo entliziyweni yabo, kuba yonke into iya kuba ngokuchaseneyo.

 

Umfanekiso wentlalontle esekhukweni lokufa.

Ngaba iya kuba yintlalontle, umhlobo osenyongweni wesigulana, kunye nomntu ohamba naye, okanye abahlobo abaliqela abalolu hlobo, abaya kuza bajikeleze ibhedi yale ndoda ihlwempuzekileyo isifa ukuze imthuthuzele? Nalu ke ulwimi abathetha ngalo ngomhlobo wabo olihlwempu: Bathi, masingathethi kuye ngokufa, singamkhalimeli ngokuthi uya kufa, ngokuba oko kumenza buhlungu kakhulu. Kwenzeka oku, yaye olu lwimi luqalekisiweyo lubanjwa phakathi kwezalamane ezisondeleyo. Yeha! akuyomfuneko ukuba bamlumkise ukuba uyafa, uziva esempilweni kakhulu. Ke ngoko kufuneka siyivuyele le ndoda ilihlwempu isifa, kufuneka siyidale kwakhona. Ngoko bahamba baze bathethe naye omnye kunye nomnye malunga nento abayaziyo ukuba imnike ulonwabo ngexesha lobomi bakhe, malunga neebhola, amaqela, ngokufutshane malunga nayo yonke into ecinga ngayo, okanye kunoko umoya okhohlakeleyo, ucebisa kubo. Kuba le ndoda isifa, zonke iziyolo ukuba bamxelela ukuba maninzi amakrele abawaphosa entliziyweni yakhe; intlungu ayivayo ayiphumi kubuhlungu ngenxa yezono azenzileyo, koko ibangelwa kukuzisola ngeziyolo zehlabathi uyalishiya. Xa amandla akhe ephelelwa ngamandla, yaye ubuthathaka bumongamela, uqalisa ukuziva ngokufuthi iintsilelo zokufa; intloko yakhe ibhidekile, kwaye uthetha amazwi ambalwa angakwazi ukuwathetha. Ngoko bonke abahlobo bakhe nabantu belizwe lakhe bayamshiya baze bangabuyi uqalisa ukuva isiqaqa sokufa rhoqo; intloko yakhe ibhidekile, kwaye uthetha amazwi ambalwa angakwazi ukuwathetha. Ngoko bonke abahlobo bakhe nabantu belizwe lakhe bayamshiya baze bangabuyi uqalisa ukuva isiqaqa sokufa rhoqo; intloko yakhe ibhidekile, kwaye uthetha amazwi ambalwa angakwazi ukuwathetha. Ngoko bonke abahlobo bakhe nabantu belizwe lakhe bayamshiya baze bangabuyi Kaninzi.

Abazali babiza umbingeleli ukuba avume; kodwa umlungiseleli weNkosi ucaphula kuwo amazwi athile anzima kakhulu ukuwaqonda; ekugqibeleni wenza isikreqo, aze umbingeleli avakalise ngokwelizwi lakhe; ngoko, njengoko esoyika ukuba uya kudlula, umnika intlambululo kunye nomthendeleko, iisakramente zokugqibela ezisiqabu kunye nentuthuzelo.

imiphefumlo eguqukayo, kodwa ngubani na kuye, kunye naboni abafana naye, yinkathazo kuphela nokuphelelwa lithemba.

 

Ukuphelelwa lithemba umoni ofayo.

Oku kuphelelwa lithemba kuqala ekuboneni umbingeleli oza kuvakalisa ilizwi likaThixo kuye. Lo mlungiseleli ufuna ukubethelela engqondweni nasentliziyweni yakhe ukholo, uthando lukaThixo, ithemba kwiinceba zakhe, kunye nokuzohlwaya okukrakra. Kodwa ngelishwa! akakho kuyo; kuchasene noko. Umntu ofayo uqala isihogo sakhe ukususela kulo mzuzu ngomsindo wokuphelelwa lithemba ovuselelwa kwakhona luloyiko oluvukela iimvakalelo zakhe ngelizwi elinye lothando oluvela kuThixo, kuba ubona kuye isazela sakhe sithwele zonke izenzo zolwaphulo-mthetho, ezigwebayo  . ilishwa likanaphakade; ubonakala eziva kwaye ekrola iidemon ezijikeleze ibhedi yakhe, ezimmangalelayo, nezimazisa izono angazange acinge ngazo. Kubonakala kuye ukuba balindele umphefumlo wakhe wolwaphulo-mthetho, ongowabo, kuba 

Ngokuqhelekileyo, ezi ndlela zoyikekayo zeedemon zenzeka kuphela xa umphefumlo sele uza kuwushiya umzimba; umtyholi ke ngoko  umgibisele ngeyona tyhefu inkulu imthintela ekubuyeleni kuThixo. Eli hlwempu lifa, phakathi kweentlungu zalo, alinanto yakwenza nokuncwina; kodwa, ndithini? Yeha! akasenguye uThixo wakhe; unguThixo onempindezelo, omxhobela iindudumo nemibane yobulungisa bakhe, olungele ukumgweba  .

Umphefumlo ohluphekayo! uya kubhenela kubani, ekubeni umbhali walo lonke uncedo noncedo ekushiya? Le ndoda isifayo ibona ukuba akusekho iyeza lokunyanga ilahleko yayo, yaye, ngokungathi ayigwetywanga ngokwaneleyo, iyazigweba nangakumbi: ingena kwintiyo nobutshaba nxamnye noThixo ngokwakhe, yaye, ngokufana needemon, inyelisa ngokunxamnye nayo. yaye ukuba akanako ukuyenza loo nto ngomlomo wakhe, uyenza ngokusuka entliziyweni. Ephelelwe lithemba uzinikela emva

 

 

(131-135)

 

 

idemon, kwaye iyavuma ukuba iwususe umphefumlo wayo xa iphuma kwisidumbu sakhe; uzinikela kuye ukuze ahlale naye ngonaphakade esihogweni.

Ilixa lalo mphefumlo uhlwempuzekileyo lifikile; akusekho xesha layo, akusekho themba, akusekho nceba. Uphuma emzimbeni wakhe ekuguqukeni kokugqibela, yaye uthwalwa ziidemon phambi koMgwebi onguMongami, othi kuye ngesandi esinendudumo: Suka kum; yiyani emlilweni ongunaphakade, owalungiselwa iidemon, nabo babebalungiselela.

 

UDade ubongoza kakhulu aboni ukuba bawusebenzise lo mzekelo kwaye bangalindeli ukuba ukufa kuguquke.

Qwalaselani ngoku, nina bamphefumlo belihlabathi, nani boni bakhweleyo ebugwenxeni babo, bahleli ngokungaguqukiyo, zigqaleni zonke ezi zinto, nicamngce ngazo. Uzithuthuzela kwipeccavi elungileyo ngeyure yokufa; ukufa kufikile, kwaye i -peccavi elungileyo iphi na? Aninako na ukufa ningenakufa njengala ndoda ilusizana ifayo, endisandula ukunixelela ngayo? Ah! zikhathalele! nokuba niphila njengabangenakwenziwa, oko nisesichengeni sokufa njengabangenakucikideka, nokusamkela isigwebo sokugwetywa nguThixo kwabalulamileyo.

Iphi intuthuzelo onayo ngoku, yokungabi ngamangqina emiqondiso eyoyikekayo emele yandulele umgwebo jikelele? Yeha

! uqiniseke ngakumbi ngosindiso lwakho? Ngaba ukhuselekile kumashwa amabi aya kwandulela lo mgwebo jikelele? Qwalasela uloyiko neentlungu zalo mntu ulihlwempu esifa: ngaphandle kweentlungu ezingaphakathi, endithethe ngazo, ezibangelwa kukubona iidemon, ubona bonke abahlobo bakhe abasenyongweni nezalamane ngaphandle. yona; wonke lo mhlaba mkhulu, zonke iziyolo zawo, kwanokukhanya kwemini, uyabhanga, kwaye amehlo akhe amnyama atyhila kuye ubumnyama obungqingqwa kuphela: akasenakuthetha namntu; neendlebe zakhe azisakuva. Yeha! ndixelele, zonke ezi ngozi, onke la mashwa, edityaniswe kunye emntwini omnye, awafanelanga okanye aboyikeke ngakumbi kunabo baya kuwandulela umgwebo? Akanakutsho na lo mntu ubhubhayo ukuthi: “Ndim lo, ekupheleni kwehlabathi! nanku ndiya kufa! yabona, ndisemgwebeni. Ukuba ayiqhelekanga, ayisayi kumlungela ngakumbi umntu ofayo wohlwaywa.

Kwimfezeko kunye neempawu ezintle zobuKristu, ngakumbi elukholweni nothando lukaThixo, iimpawu ezisisiseko zosindiso.

 

 

§. I.

Umbono apho uDade afunda ukuba yintoni ingqibelelo yokwenyani.

 

Nanku umzekelo iNkosi eyandibonisa yona kubantu abafuna ukuzabalazela imfezeko.

 

Ingelosi engumlondolozi kaDade ijongene nokumkhokelela apho uThixo azimisele ukumlungisa.

Ngenye imini, iNkosi yethu yathi kum: “Nantsi iNgelosi yakho enguMlondolozi eya kukukhokelela apho ndifuna uye khona: yithobele. Le ngelosi yabonakala kum ikwimo yomfana oneminyaka ephakathi kweshumi elinesihlanu neshumi elinesithandathu. Wayekhangeleka esezulwini, kwaye ezele bububele obukhulu, uthando kunye nobubele kum. Wathi kum, Ndilandele.

 

Iindawo ezahlukeneyo adlula kuzo.

Wandikhokelela kwiindlela kunye namazwe angaziwayo ngokupheleleyo. Safumana uluntu; Ndandifuna ukubona oonongendi; Ndandibathanda kakhulu. Ndandifuna ukuhlala apho: Ingelosi yam elungileyo yakuchasa ngamandla, isithi: “Akukho apho uThixo afuna ukuba ube khona. Ndaqhubeka ndimlandela. Endleleni yethu sadibana namakholwa, aza andibongoza ukuba ndiye kuhlala nawo. I-Angel yam elungileyo yayisaphikisa. Sadlula kwiindawo ezingenabantu. Apho, kwakukho i-hermitage yamadoda kunye ne-  hermitage yamantombazana kude ne-hermitage yamadoda. Bendifuna ukungena kwi hermitage yamantombazana ndibone ikhaya labo. Babenendlu yecawa encinane eyayihonjiswe ngazo zonke iintlobo zenkonzo, nkqu nezo zifuna ukwazi, yaye idweliswe  nemifanekiso.

emele ubomi nokufa kweNkosi yethu. Yayingathi yiparadesi encinane. Ndayithanda kakhulu apho, kwaye ndathi kwiNgelosi yam elungileyo: Ndiza kuhlala apha; wabuya wathi kum, Hayi; asikokuthanda kukaThixo. Ndiye ndaphinda ndamlandela.

 

Ingelosi imshiya yedwa entlango ize imnike incwadi acamngce ngayo.

Wandikhokelela kwihlathi elimnyama elalingenanto imnandi ngaphandle kokuzola noxolo; lalizele ziinkuni kangangokuba emini emaqanda kube mnyama apho okanye imini incinane kakhulu. Kwindawo encinane ehlathini, apho iinkuni zazigawulwe khona, nekungekho nkulu kunendawo yendlu, yathi kum ingelosi yam elungileyo: Hlala apho, kulapha apho uThixo akufunayo. Ndaguqa phantsi; wandinika incwadi, wathi kum, Yile nto uThixo akunikayo ukuba ucinge ngayo kule ntlango; yicingisise kakuhle. Wanyamalala kwangelo xesha.

 

Imixholo yencwadi. Ukuziphatha kukaDade kunye nomyalelo weNkosi yethu.

Xa ndandizibona ndindedwa, ndingazi apho ndikhoyo, yaye ndingazi mntu, ndafunda ndibuhlungu kakhulu nangentlungu engathethekiyo: Emzuzwini kamva ndazixelela oku: Ndimele ndiyifunde incwadi yam; yena

 

 

(136-140)

iphuma kuThixo; kuya kubakho izinto ezintle. Ndavula incwadi. Encotsheni yawo onke amaphepha kwakukho: NguThixo yedwa , yaye kuphela la mazwi, uThixo yedwa . Yonke enye into yayingenanto.

Ubusuku babusondela, nto leyo eyandenza ndangcangcazela luloyiko noloyiko. Ngoko ndabhenela kuThixo ndilila ndincwina. Ndathi, Nkosi, ndibabale; bona imeko endikuyo! INkosi yethu yeza kundinceda, yaza yathi kum: “Mntwana wam, kodwa yifunde incwadi yakho. — Nkosi, phantse akukho nto ifundwayo. INkosi yethu yandiphendula yathi: “Baninzi; camngca ngala mazwi mabini kuphela; zininzi kunokuba uya kuziqwalasela. Nangona kunjalo unako ngoncedo lobabalo lwam. Namathela kum kuphela; shiyani zonke izidalwa, ezilungileyo kwanezimbi; »

 

§. II.

Ukubaluleka kokholo. Ukususela ebuntwaneni, uDade wathatha ukholo olunyulu njengomthetho wehambo yakhe.

 

Ukholo lolokugqibela. Yeha! Yeha! esi sidima sesona singahoywanga! Kuba inkoliso yezidalwa inamathele kokuphuthileyo, ingabi ngabangendawo kwizinto zehlabathi; libala kwaye udelele ubuKatolika, ubuPostile kunye nenkolo yamaRoma kunye nenkolo: kuyo, nangona kunjalo, ukuba kufuneka sibambelele, siqine kwaye singashukunyiswa kuwo onke amandla esihogo, ehlala isilwa ngawo.

 

Ihambo yodade ngokholo olunyulu.

Lukholo oluxabisekileyo obelusoloko lundixhasa kubomi bam. Kwasebuntwaneni bam, yaye kamsinya nje ndakuba ndifundiswe ukuba ndingumntwana kaThixo noweCawa engcwele yamaKatolika, ndazimanya naye ngokungathi kunjalo nakuThixo ngokwakhe; ndaza ke ndabambelela nkqi kuyo njengentsika engashukumiyo, ndazisusa zonke iintuthuzelo ezinqabileyo, kwanezo ziqhelekileyo, oko kukuthi, ndazisebenzisela iziphelo, athe uThixo wawazibela bona kum; phezu kwabo, wabancina kuphela ekukhanyeni kokholo. Ukuba ndithe ndafumanisa into echasene nokholo, ndathi ndakuyibona nje, ndayilahla kum ukuba ndingaze ndiphinde ndiyicinge, ndeyiseke ngamandla ukuba yonke into echasene nokholo ichasene noThixo. Ndikhetha ukuthetha noThixo, mhlawumbi ngomthandazo wengqondo okanye ngomthandazo welizwi, kwaye rhoqo ngeenyaniso zenkolo yeVangeli, imilinganiselo kunye neemfihlelo zenkolo engcwele. Andizange ndifumane ntuthuzelo imnandi njengaxa uThixo wayeshiya ngaphakathi kwam uqheliselo olunyulu lokholo, kwaye xa ndingcamla okanye ndiziva ndingenawo uthuthuzeleko olunengqiqo kunokholo. ze.

UThixo undibabale ukuba ndibabalwe, phantse kulo lonke ixesha lobomi bam, ngokuqhelisela olu kholo lunyulu; Ukuba ke uThixo wathanda ukundazisa ngezinto ezininzi ezincamisayo, wenjenje ukuba ndibonisele; Ndenze intobeko, andaphinda ndanamathela kwimibono, nakwizityhilelo; yaphuma engqondweni yam yaphuma engqondweni  yam, yangathi akwenzekanga nto kum, ndazibona ndikule  nto .

17 Uqheliselo olululo ukholo, endithemba ukuba ndiya kulugcina, ngalo ubabalo lukaThixo, ndísadla ubomi ke ndifela kulo.

Njengoko ndikholelwa ukuba kungokholo nothando ukuba umntu uzuza intliziyo kaThixo, ikwangokholo nothando athi umntu woyise ezona ntlungu zinzima kunye nezona zihendo ziyingozi, zonke iimbandezelo zomoya, zomphefumlo, kwanezona zilingo zinzima. umzimba, ekubeni lukholo, luyilungiselelo lakhe elingcwele, elisisindisayo, elisinika ngexesha nangethuba yonke iminqamlezo awasimisela yona ebomini bethu.

 

Udade uwela ebumnyameni kwaye ukholelwa ukuba akamthandi uThixo.

Apha ndiza kubalisa isivakalisi ekwakholekileyo kuyo iNkosi yethu ukundithumela: Emva kokuba ndiwuncamile umbingelelo, ndaza emva koko, ngokuzithandela, ndawulahla wonke umsa wemvelo kwizidalwa, ngokuthanda kukaThixo. ndifuna kuphela ukubathanda kuThixo nakuThixo kumanyano lwesisa lweJC, ukuze ndinamathele kuThixo kuphela, ndaziva ndomile kakhulu ngaphakathi kwam kuyo yonke into ephathelele uThixo, kunye nokuba ze. ukholo, ukuba kwakufuneka ndikhumbule izibhambathiso zobhaptizo lwam kunye neenyaniso zokuqala zenkolo yam, ukuze ndivuselele kwaye ndomeleze kwizenzo zobuKristu kunye nezonqulo ekwakufuneka ndizenze kwindawo yam. Owu! hayi indlela eyayinzima nedininisa ngayo le ntlungu! Ndazixhasa kuphela ngomoya onyulu wokholo; kwakubonakala ngathi ukholo lwam luyasilela, okanye ndandibambelele kulo ngomsonto kuphela. Ngokuphathelele uthando lukaThixo, ndandizithembise ukuba emva kokuzikhulula kulo lonke uthando lwasemhlabeni nabantu, ndandingasayi kufumana nasiphi na isithintelo ekuthandeni uThixo ngokugqibeleleyo; kwaye kuloo nto bendicinga ukuba ndisakhungathekile ngayo  yonke into

 

 

(141-145)

 

 

into ebendiyithembile; kodwa ndahlala ndizikhumbuza ngokholo; nguye kuphela onokundithuthuzela; kuba, njengoko ndandizixelele, lukholo lokwenyaniso ukuba uThixo ukho kuyo yonke indawo, ukuba uThixo uyandibona kwaye undazi kwisimo endikuso. Ndenze le ngcamango ibe yinkxaso yam kuphela kunye nentuthuzelo yam kuphela. Ngamanye amaxesha kwafika iingcinga ezibuhlungu kum: Kulungile! ulishiyile ihlabathi, walahla ubuhlobo bendalo,  nto leyo

wenza intuthuzelo noyolo lwabantu: Oku nenze ukuze niyithande ngakumbi iNkosi elungileyo; ubone ukuba umthanda ngakumbi na. Ngokwahlukileyo koko, animthandi uThixo kwanezidalwa; ufana nelungu elifileyo elingasenamsebenzi wobomi.

 

Kule ntlungu inkulu uDade uye abhenela kukholo olunyulu.

Ezi zingcikivo zabonakala zizisa ukufa entliziyweni yam ndicinga ukuba andimthandi uThixo, kwaye yonke into endiyenzayo okanye endiyicingayo ngoThixo yayiyimisebenzi efileyo kuphela. Ukubuyela kwicala lezidalwa, ndandonyanya kakhulu, kwaye ndakuqonda kakuhle ukuxhatshazwa, ukungabikho kolu thando lwendalo kuphela. Ndaguqukela kuThixo, ndathi: “Nkosi, uyazi wena intlungu endikuyo yokuba ndingakuthandi; kodwa, Thixo wam, ukholo luyandifundisa, unguThixo onamandla ngaphakathi kuwe, uThixo ozaliswe bubuqaqawuli nobungangamsha, lowo izithunywa zezulu nabangcwele bamnqulayo kwaye bamthanda ngokungenasiphelo. Uya kuba nguThixo wobungangamsha ngonaphakade,  ube  noyolo  olungunaphakade . kunye  no

umnqweno omkhulu wokukuthanda, ndinelishwa lokungathandi; kodwa, Thixo wam! ukho, kwaye oko kwanele kum. Ekubandezelekeni kwam, ndaphindaphinda izihlandlo ezininzi ngokulandelelanayo: UThixo ukho, yaye oko kwanele kum. Ndanditshintsha ngamanye amaxesha ngokuthi: UThixo ungunaphakade, kwaye ndiphindaphinda: UThixo unoyolo ngonaphakade; Ndifuna ukumthanda kuye nangenxa yakhe. Kum ndiya kuba yiyo nantoni na athanda ukuba yiyo. Ndandithetha ngezi mvakalelo ukuba ndibeke onke amandla am, lonke ulonwabo lwam, kwaneparadesi yam, kuBuntu bukaThixo obungunaphakade; kwaye kulo mphefumlo wam wagcoba ngovuyo nemivuyo, ndisithi ngentliziyo yam yonke: UThixo ukho, kwaye oko kwanele kum.

Lathi lakufika idemon lindikhathaza lindenza ndive: Uya kugwetywa, zonke izenzo zakho zilahlekile phambi koThixo, ngenxa yokuba ungamthandi, andizange ndicinge enye into endingayithetha, ngaphandle kokuwuphakamisa umoya wam kuThixo, kwaye qwalasela yonke ingqibelelo yayo encomekayo. Intliziyo yam yaziva ithuthuzelekile, kangangokuba, ndalibala, ndathi: UThixo ukho, kwaye kwanele kum.

 

Ukholo lwakhe olunesisa nolungenamdla.

Ngesinye isihlandlo, ngoxa ndandikwezi ntlungu, unongendi othile wathetha nam  ngombandela wosindiso lwam, wandixelela ukuba lo mbandela nguwo kuphela ekwakufuneka siwenze kweli hlabathi, yaye simele siwuthabathe ngamandla entliziyweni  .

Mna, ndandicinga ukuba andiyithandi iNkosi elungileyo, kwaye usindiso lwam lwalusengozini  enkulu. Ndaphendula ndathi kuye, Dadewethu, ndilulahlile  usindiso lwam;

ezandleni zikaThixo, ukuze ndifune kuphela kwaye ndifune uzuko olusulungekileyo lukaThixo: ukuba iNkosi elungileyo yenze kum nantoni na ekuthandayo.

Masithi uThixo undazise ukuba uwudibanise umphefumlo kowam, makhe ndazi nam ukuba omnye okanye omnye umele ugwetywe, nokuba noThixo, ewuyekela kukhetho lwam lo mbandela, andixelele: Ndikunika ukhetho; ukuba uyathanda, uya kuza ebukumkanini bam, aze lo omnye agwetywe.

Noko ke, ukuba lo uthe weza ebukumkanini bam, ebeya kundizukisa ngakumbi nangakumbi kunawe. Kuloo ngcinga, ndithetha nonongendi, ndamphendula ngenkalipho ukuba ndiya kubingelela usindiso lwam ngenxa yozuko lukaThixo, nangenxa yalo mphefumlo uya kumzukisa ngaphezu kwam eparadesi.

 

Ukungabi namandla kwakhe emthandazweni.

Esi sohlwayo sathabatha iminyaka eliqela; Andinakutsho ngokuqinisekileyo inani. Eyona nto yayindikhathaza ngakumbi kukuba ndandichitha ixesha lam lokuthandaza. Xa ndandikunye noluntu phambi koMthendeleko oNgcwele, sifunda ingongoma yomthandazo, ndazixelela oku: Ndiza kuzibhokoxa kakuhle, ukuze ndigcine ufundo ndize ndizame ukwenza umthandazo wam. Xa kwakufundwa, andizange ndiphinde ndikhumbule igama lokugqibela kunelokuqala. Ndichithe ixesha elininzi ndiphanda ngesihloko esifundwayo. Xa ndifumene into, ndayithatha, ndicinga ukuba ndiyifumene; yaba lilize, yadlula okomzuzwana, yaye andizange ndifumane nto konke konke endinokuzibhokoxa kuyo. Ke kaloku, ndakuyibona le nto, ndema phambi koThixo phambi koMthendeleko oNgcwele, ndema apho ndingathethanga nto, kuba andikhumbuli nto. Xa umphathi wandinika umqondiso wokuba ndigqibezele umthandazo, ndaphakama njengabanye; Ndathi eNkosini yethu: Kulungile! Nkosi yam, ndiyemka njengoko ndemkayo; Ndiphulukene nalo lonke ixesha umthandazo.

 

Umbingelelo wamaqhawe kaDade, othi ekugqibeleni amkhulule kwesi sigwebo eside.

Ngamanye amaxesha, emthandazweni, ndandingcikiva uThixo olungileyo, ndisithi: Nkosi, kubuhlungu kakhulu kum ukungakuthandi! Ndiyakulahla ngenxa yokuthanda kwakho, nokukukholisa, lonke uthando lwendalo lwendalo, kwaye andifuni kuzirhola kulo; Ndifuna kuphela ukubathanda ngothando olunyulu. Ewe, Nkosi,

 

 

(146-150)

 

 

Ndikwenza idini lolonwabo endiya kuba nalo ngokukuthanda; Ndikunika usizi olubangelwa yiminqweno endinayo yokukuthanda kwaye ndingakwazi ukwenza njalo. Thixo wam, ndiyazithoba imihla eseleyo kwintlungu endikuyo, kwaye andisayi kubuyela esidalweni; ubuhlobo babo, iziyolo ubani incasa apho kakhulu ubugeza kwaye krakra kakhulu. Ukuba awufuni, Thixo wam! ukuba ndiyakuthanda, ndiya kuchitha ubomi bam bonke ndingathandi nto kwaphela. Ndiyathemba, Thixo wam! ukuba uya kundenzela ubabalo lokukuthanda ubuncinane ngonaphakade.

Kwabonakala kum ukuba lo Msindisi ungcwele wayelindele kuphela eli dini kwicala lam ukuba lisuse intlungu yam, ngoko ke ndahlangulwa ngokukhawuleza ekungakhathali kwam nakubo bonke ubumfama bengqondo yam, kwaye oko ndingazi ukuba njani. Ngokukhawuleza ukukhanya okuhle, okuza njengelanga lobulungisa, kwakhanyisa kwaye kwangena ekuqondeni kwam, kwaye kwavuyisa umphefumlo wam, ndimangaliswe lutshintsho olonwabileyo.

 

§. III.

Wayethandaza njani uDade ubomi bakhe bonke. Indlela yomthandazo awayifundiswa yiNkosi yethu.

 

Ndiza kuxela enye into ngomthandazo, kwaye ngokubanzi malunga nento eyenzekayo kum ngalo mbandela kubomi bam bonke. Akukho mntu wakha wandifundisa ukuthandaza; Ndikholelwa ukuba kwakukho uThixo kuphela.

 

Ukususela ebuntwaneni bakhe uDade wayemkhathalele uThixo kwaye ecamngca phakathi kwentsimi, engazi ukuba uyathandaza.

Kwasebuncinaneni bam, xa ndandindedwa emasimini ndisalusa iinkomo, ndandicinga, ndingazi ukuba oku kukwenza umthandazo, yaye oko kwakumkholisa uThixo. Ndancokola, ubukhulu becala kusasa, ngamanye amaxesha ngeemfihlakalo zothando lweNkosi yethu, ngamanye amaxesha ngemigwebo kaThixo; ngamanye amaxesha malunga nesihogo, nayo yonke into ethi qatha engqondweni yam ngoThixo. Ndiye ndazivumela ukuba ndingene kuyo kwangathi bendilapho, ndingazi ukuba ngumthandazo okanye umthandazo. Ndandicinga ukuba banjalo

izinto eziphathelele uThixo nosindiso lwemiphefumlo yethu, nokuba kwakukuhle ukucinga ngazo nokuthetha ngazo.

 

Ekubeni sele engene elunqulweni, akayazi indlela yokuthandaza.

Ndandikule mpazamo de ndangena elunqulweni. Ndithe ndakubona oonongendi emva kokufundwa kwenqaku lomthandazo, beguqe bathi cwaka, ndakhathazeka kakhulu kum ngale nto bayenzayo. Ndabuza koonongendi; baphendula bathi bayathandaza. Oku akundanelisanga; Bendingawuqondi ke lomthandazo ukuba uthini, ndingazi nokuba mandibeke ntoni kulomthandazo. Ngamanye amaxesha ndandicinga ukuba yiloo mithandazo ubani ayifumana ezincwadini, apho ubani abeka imithandazo ekuqaleni komthandazo. Ndakhumbula ukuba kwimfundiso yekatekizim endandiyifundisiwe, kukho iindidi ezimbini zemithandazo, owengqondo nowelizwi; loo mthandazo wengqondo wenza ubulumko nentliziyo entliziyweni yakhe, akathetha nto; kodwa bendicinga ukuba ibingathi yiPater neAve le ithethwa ngumntu entliziyweni yakhe angayibizi.

 

Ubhenela kwindlela yomthandazo echazwe kwiincwadi, kodwa ngaphandle kwempumelelo.

Kuyo yonke le nto ndandingasekho buchule. Inkosikazi yam yayixakeke kakhulu kangangokuba ayizange indixelele. Ndabhenela ezincwadini. Ndifumene abandiyalelayo ukuba ndenze njani. Ndithi entliziyweni yam, Thixo wam, andizange ndithandaze; Kufuneka ndisebenze kwaye ndizibhokoxe ekwenzeni oko. Ndandifuna ukufunda indlela endiyifumene ezincwadini ukuze ndiyisebenzise. Kwakukho amaxesha apho ndandizibhokoxa, ngamandla engqondo yam, ekulandeleni izenzo; ekugqibeleni, umthandazo waphela kwaye ndandingekakwazi ukulandela yonke le ndlela yokuthandaza umntu ayifumana ezincwadini; ngaloo nto intliziyo eyome njengematshisi, ingqondo egqunywe amehlo, kwaye isoloko ikuhlobo lobundlobongela. Ndathi ke eNkosini elungileyo, ndicaphuka kakhulu.

 

Uyathandaza acinge ukuba akayenzi.

Maxa wambi kwakuye kuthi xa ndiqalisa ukuthandaza, xa ndandibiza uMoya oyiNgcwele, yaye xa ndizibeka phambi kobuso bukaThixo, uMsindisi wethu wabenza ubukho bakhe babonakala kum, kangangokuba wawutsalela kuye umoya wam nokuqonda kwam, waza wabonakalisa ububele obungasifanelanga. ukuba, ndizilibale zonke iindlela zokuthandaza, I

ndacinga ngakumbi. Xa uMphathi wanikela umqondiso wokuba ndiwushiye lo mthandazo, owawubonakala kum, wawuthabathe umzuzwana nje, sekunjalo ndemka nabanye, ndinganelisekanga kakhulu likamva lam. Ah! Ndathi, Nkosi, andithandazanga. Noko ke, Nkosi, andinakuzibamba; Ndiyilibele indlela, kwaye khange ndiyicinge kwaphela.

Ndabuyela emsebenzini wam, apho ndandidla ngokuthetha nje kancinane, yaye ndacamngca ngeengongoma eziziintloko ezandichaphazela kakhulu ekufundeni endandikwenza kusasa. Ngokwesiqhelo, ufundo lwam lwalungobomi, ukufa nothando lweNkosi yethu uYesu Kristu, kunye neVangeli.

 

INkosi yethu imfundisa indlela yomthandazo enempumelelo kuye.

UMsindisi wethu othandekayo, ebona iintloni kunye nentlungu endandikuyo malunga nomthandazo, wandihlangula kuwo ngokwakhe, kwaye wandazisa ukuba kufuneka ndiyishiye indlela yeencwadi. Wandifundisa ngokwakhe, esithi kum: “Qwalasela uze ucinge entliziyweni yakho, xa uthe wacinga

  _  (151-155)

 

emthandazweni, uze ucamngce ngawo njengoko usenza ngoxa usebenza. Wathi ke uThixo kum, Xa sukuba nithandaza, nokuba ningasese, nokuba niphakathi kwebandla, yimani phambi kwam nithobeke, nithandaze kuMoya oyiNgcwele; Ndiyathembisa ukunibonelela ndize ndiniphawulele izinto enimelwe kukuzithandazela.

Ngokwesiqhelo kufuneka, xa ungena emthandazweni, ujonge ngaphakathi kuwe ukuba yintoni engamkholisiyo uMhlekazi wam, kwaye uhlala usebenza ukutshabalalisa inkanuko yakho elawulayo, ngaphandle kokuba nditsala intliziyo yakho kunye nengqondo yakho kwenye indawo. Zisukeleni ekuthandazeni kwenu ukutshabalala kweenkanuko, njengoko ndanixelelayo. Ndaqalisa ukuziqhelanisa, kangangoko ndinako, ezi zifundo zilungileyo ngoncedo lobabalo. Ngethamsanqa ndahlala ngaphakathi kwam ukuze ndibone ukuba zeziphi iimpazamo endandihlala ndiwela kuzo. Ndaqonda ngokukodwa ukuba yayilikratshi nokuzithanda okwakundilawula, yaye kwakungenxa yoku ndenza ezinye izono.

Ufumana isipho sokulila ukuze azilele izono zakhe.

INkosi yandishiya malunga nonyaka ndisenza lo mthandazo, yaye andikhumbuli ukuba uThixo wandithanda kangaka ngesipho seenyembezi njengakule mibandela. Emthandazweni ndandingakwazi ukuzikhusela kuwo; yayingathi bubundlobongela obuthambileyo endingenakubuxhathisa. Nangona ndandikwindawo efihlakeleyo, apho oonongendi babengandiboni nokundibona ubuso ngobuso, kwenzeka ukuba abanye bakuphawule oko. Bekukho aba curious bathe xa kugqitywa umthandazo beza kundijongisa ebusweni ukuba andikhali na, babuya bencumile. Baye bayondifumana unkosikazi wam, bamxelela ukuba ndinezilingo neenkathazo zengqondo, ndakhala ngomthandazo kuphela, kwaye kufuneka andiqondise. Kanye, Ekuphumeni kwam umthandazo weNkosikazi yam, yeza kuthetha nam, yathi kum, Ulilelani na, dade wethu? ziziphi iintlungu onazo? Ndaphendula ndathi andinazo ezinye iintlungu ngaphandle kwezono zam ingakumbi ezezam ukuzingca.

Yayingekho enye into awayeyazi, ngaphandle nje kokuba ndandizilela izono zam.

 

Ucamngca ngeemfihlelo.

INkosi yethu indenze ndaqhubeka ngale ndlela yomthandazo kangangexesha elithile. Ngamanye amaxesha, ngakumbi kwimithendeleko emikhulu yonyaka, iNkosi yethu yayiwutshintsha umthandazo wam, kwaye ihlala indenza ndicamngce ngeemfihlakalo ezimelwa yile mithendeleko. Ukususela ngelo xesha, ndiye ndazincama ezandleni zakhe, ingakumbi ngenxa yomthandazo. Xa sifunda ingongoma yomthandazo, ndandiyiphulaphula njengeminye. Ndathi ndakuqalisa ukuthandaza, ngelo xesha iNkosi Yethu yanditsalela kuye ngomnye umbandela, apho, kangangoko ndandinako, ndazenza ukuthembeka ekulandeleni umtsalane wakhe, ndingakhange ndifumane ngcebiso okanye iingcebiso nakubani na. ngomthandazo wam.

 

Uyakoyika ukuphazama; INkosi yethu iyamqinisekisa.

Ngamanye amaxesha kwakuye kuthi qatha kum ukuba ndenze impazamo, kuba ndandisithi: Oonongendi bonke bathandaza kwinqanaba elinye lomthandazo, ndize ndiwenze kwenye. Kubonakala ngathi andingoluntu. Ngale nto iNkosi Yethu indenze ndazi ukuba bekungeyomfuneko ukwenza wonke umthandazo ngombandela omnye; nokuba sasingenazo iintswelo ezifanayo sonke, nokokuba sonke asibizelwanga kumlinganiselo ofanayo wobabalo; ukuba kum, kwakufuneka ndimlandele; ukuba xa kukholekile kuye andenze ndithandaze ekufundweni, kwaye kolu phawu ndiyazi ukuba umtsalane wobabalo uya kuwela kwindawo eqhelekileyo yomthandazo. Ngoko ke ndathatha isigqibo esiqinileyo sokuba ndinga

Umntu ovuma izono uyamqinisekisa kwindlela yakhe yokuthandaza.

Kwiminyaka engama-30 kamva ndazifumana ndiphantsi kolwalathiso lukagqirha owayefuna ukuba ndiphendule ngesazela sam. Ndamxelela ukuba ukufika kwam kunqulo kwakunzima gqitha ukuthandaza, yaye ndamxelela okuthile ngoko iNkosi Yethu yayindixelele kona ngalo mbandela. Wandiphendula wathi ndenze kakuhle kakhulu ukushiya indlela yeencwadi, kwaye wayengafuni ukuba ndiyilandele. Ndamxelela indlela uThixo awayendikhokela ngayo, nendlela endandithandaza ngayo; waphendula wathi ndiqhuba kakuhle, yaye kuye wayekwenza ngendlela efanayo. Ndathuthuzeleka kakhulu kukuvuma kwakhe, kuba ndandinoloyiko oluthile kum lokwenza impazamo, yaye ndandifuna ukuba noluvo lomntu weCawa endandinokuthembela kuye.

 

Iimvakalelo zikaDade ngeencwadi ezithetha ngobomi bentlambululo-miphefumlo, obukhanyisayo nobumanyanisayo.

§. IV.

Nabani na ofuna ukubuyela kuThixo ahambe emanyathelweni eNkosi yethu kufuneka azikhokele ngokholo nangothando lukaThixo.

 

Ukholo kunye nokugcinwa kwemithetho ngothando kuphela kwendlela ekhokelela kuThixo.

Nantsi into endiyifundiswe yiNkosi yethu, kwaye yintoni efuna ukuba yonke imiphefumlo ilandele enqwenela ukuyilandela. Bamele baluthabathe njengomgaqo wezenzo zabo ukholo olukhokelela ngokuthe ngqo kuThixo, yaye bamele bazazise ngokukhethekileyo ngokuthanda umthetho wakhe ongcwele nemithetho yakhe eyahlukahlukeneyo. Kungale ndlela ke athi uThixo ayiphakamise imiphefumlo kwanabona bonileyo bakhulu eludakeni lwesono, awukhokelele umphefumlo othembekileyo kwezona mpawu zibalulekileyo zosindiso.

Njengoko ndibona kuThixo, ukholo, ithemba, nothando, mna ngathi umphefumlo owenza imisebenzi emihle awunakutshabalala. Ukuba uyawa, uyavuka kwakhona ngezi mpawu ziqinileyo. UThixo uyalihlangula kuzo zonke iingozi namathuba ayingozi okulikhubekisa. Okokugqibela, kum kubonakala ngathi ngokulwa nezi mpawu, ukhululwe kuzo zonke iingozi ezingathandekiyo ezinokumehlela kulo lonke ixesha lobomi bakhe, nezinokumkhokelela entshabalalo.

 

Umbono ongqina le nyaniso. UDade uzifumana ekwichibi elinzulu kwaye ubona iNkosi yethu kwindawo  ephakamileyo.

Nanku umzekelo oza kubonisa kwaye ubuyise oko sikubhalileyo ngasentla. UMoya kaYehova wandikhokelela ngenye imini echibini elinzulu kakhulu, elijikelezileyo. Kumphakamo okufutshane nechibi, ndabona iNkosi yethu, ikwimo yomntu, ihamba ecaleni kwendlela eyayiphezulu. Ndazibona ndirhawulwe macala onke, kungekho ncedo, ndathi entliziyweni yam, Nanku uYehova; Oku ndikuthetha ngomoya wokholo oludlamkileyo olwandenza ndaqonda ukuba mandizincede kwaye ndenze konke okusemandleni am ukuba ndiphume kweli chibi ndinyuke imimango ukuze ndifike ngqo eNkosini Yethu. Ndoyiselwa lukholo ukuba iNkosi yethu inokundikhupha ngoko nangoko, ngamandla ayo, indikhuphe kule ngozi yandixabisa; kodwa ndiyayibona ukholo lokuba kwakufuneka ndisebenze ngokwam kwaye ndizame ukunyuka, kwaye ngaloo ndlela ndibe nethemba eliqinileyo lokufikelela  kuye.

 

Iinzame azenzayo zokunyuka aze afike kwiNkosi yethu.

Ngelo xesha, ndisebenzisa onke amandla am, ndazikhupha kulo mgxobhozo ndaza ndenyuka ndaya ngqo kwindawo ephakamileyo apho ndayibona khona iNkosi Yethu. Kangangendlela ezininzi ngayo iingozi ezandehlelayo ngaphambi kokuba ndifike kwiNkosi Yethu kangangokuba, ngaphandle kokholo olwandixhasayo, ngendandidimazeke ngokupheleleyo, yaye ngendiphelelwe lithemba. Ndathi ndakuthabatha izinyuko ezintathu okanye ezine ukunyuka, umhlaba wawohloka ndaza ndawa ngasemva. Ngokukhawuleza ndenyuka, kwaye ngokukhawuleza ndawa. Andinakutsho ukuba la mashwa ebendehlela kangaphi. Kwakukho amaxesha apho ndandikhe ndinyuke, ngobunzima obukhulu, phantse ndiye encotsheni yentaba, ndibambe yonke into endandikholelwa ukuba iyakwazi ukundixhasa, kwiincopho ezincinane (1) ezaziphuma emhlabeni. ngelo xesha beza esandleni sam,

(1) Iingcebiso zamatyholo.

 

Ndonganyelwe kukudinwa, yaye phezu kwayo yonke imigudu yam, ndaqonda ukuba, kunokuba ndihambele phambili, ndandirhoxa. Ndaziva ngaphakathi kwam ukuphelelwa lithemba okukhulu okwandithintela ekwenzeni iinzame ezintsha zokunyuka. Ndiyavuma ukuba ukuba bekungelulo ukholo olwandihlangulayo, ngendingazange ndibenaso isibindi sokunyuka ndibuyele encotsheni yentaba, yayikhawuleza kakhulu; kodwa ndihlaziyeka ngenkalipho entsha, ndagqiba kwelokuba ndingachithi ixesha ndize ndisebenze ngokuqhubekayo ukuze ndifikelele kwiNkosi Yethu, xa ndandifanele ndifele emsebenzini.

 

Uvavanyo eyathi iNkosi yethu yambeka kulo Dade ngaphambi kokuba imhlangule esichengeni.

Ke apha ndibuyela phezulu kunye nokudinwa okuqhelekileyo, kwaye ndikwazi ukufikelela phezulu; ukuze ndibeke iingalo zam ecaleni kwendlela apho iNkosi Yethu yayikhona. Udlule kufutshane kakhulu kum engakhange azenze ngathi uyandibona; Ndadanduluka ndathi, Nkosi, ndenzele inceba; ndinike isandla sakho, hleze ndibhubhe. INkosi yethu iyasondela, ibeke phambi kwam ngokungakhathali okuthile, indishiye kangangexesha elithile kwindawo ebendikuyo, ingandinikanga ncedo. Mna, ezibilinini zam, ndahlala ndisithi: Nkosi, ndinike isandla sakho; ndamcenga, ndazibamba emhlabeni owomeleleyo ngesinye isandla, ndolulela kuye esinye. INkosi yethu iza kuthi kum: Uyandithanda na? Ndiyaphendula: Oh! Ewe, Nkosi yam, ndiyakuthanda. Kodwa endaweni yoko

ukuba andinike isandla sakhe kuqala, lo Msindisi ungcwele wagoba, wabeka isandla sakhe entliziyweni yam wasibamba umzuzwana apho (ngokungathi undazisa ukuba wayegocagoca iintliziyo), ukuze abone ukuba akukho mntu uthandwa ngokwenene. ; emva koko ndazibamba ngesandla, ngoko nangoko ndazibona sele ndikwindawo ephakamileyo, apho ndahamba neNkosi yethu malunga nesiqingatha seyure. Olwethu

 

 

(161-165)

 

 

Wandiqondisa ke uYehova umyalelo omkhulu wothando lwakhe olungcwele; ndaza ndavuyisana nam, ndisiva intliziyo yam ibethwa ngumlilo wothando lwakhe lobuthixo; kwaye ndivuya ngokuba sebusweni boThixo wam, ndakholelwa ukuba konke kuphelile kwaye andisayi kuphinda ndibandezeleke  .

 

Imisebenzi emitsha kaDade. Unqumla iibhodi ezimxinwa ezijinga phezu kwamanzi.

Kodwa ngelishwa! hayi indlela ebendiphazame ngayo ekulindeni kwam! Ngelixa ndandinalo ngcinga, uMsindisi wethu oNgcwele waguqukela kum wathi kum: “Yonke into ayenziwa; usenendlela ende ekufuneka uyihambile; waza wandibonisa indlela encinane erhabaxa kwaye emxinwa kakhulu, kangangokuba amakhakakhaka adityanisiweyo kunye nameva achukumisa ukusuka kwelinye icala lendlela ukuya kwelinye, “Nantso indlela yakho, yatsho iNkosi Yethu kum; kufuneka uhambe ngaloo ndlela. Ndithi: Ah! Nkosi, andinako; Andinakuya khona, ukuba anithanga nihambe nam. INkosi yethu yathi kum: “Kulungile! Ndiya kuhamba nawe; kwaye kwangoko udlula phambi kwam. Ndathuthuzeleka kakhulu ngokuba neNkosi yethu kunye nam. Ekupheleni kwaloo ndlela incinane kwakukho amaplanga awayengenabubanzi besiqingatha sonyawo, awayexhonywe kumbindi we ummandla omkhulu wamanzi ndingasiboni isiphelo sawo. Sathi sakufika kufutshane nala maplanga, iNkosi Yethu yandixelela ukuba kwakuyimfuneko ukudlula la maplanga. Ndithi, Nkosi, andinako ukulubeka unyawo khona. Yathi kum iNkosi yethu: “Musa ukoyika; ukuba unokholo nothando lwam, uya kudlula kuyo yonke into. » Ndithi: Nkosi, ndicela undinike isandla sakho. Nanku uYehova endinika isandla sakhe. Ndandingaziva ngathi ndihamba; uYehova wandikhapha ngokukhawuleza nangokulula, ukuba ndingabi nantlungu, kodwa luyolo  .

 

Imisebenzi kaDade ingumzekelo waboni abafuna ukwenza inguquko.

Sathi sakuhamba kakuhle phezu kwamanzi, iNkosi Yethu yathi kum: “Akufunekanga ndisoloko ndikubamba ngesandla, kuba ubungayi kuba nokufaneleka okungako; Kuyimfuneko ke ukuba nihambe ngokwaselukholweni, nihambe nedwa kuzo zonke iiplanga enisukuba nizicama endleleni; babuyela enguqukweni ngobabalo lwam, nokuze kunisebenze njengenguquko yezono zenu. Musani ukoyika; Ndiya kukushiya, kodwa umoya wam uya kukukhokelela naphi na apho ndifuna ukuya khona: ndiya kuba nawe ngobabalo lwam nothando lwam. Ndithi: Ah! Nkosi, ekubandezelekeni kwam, ndihambe amanyathelo amabini okanye amathathu phambi kwam, ukuze ubone ukuba ndingakwazi na ukuhamba emva kwakho wedwa. INkosi yandinika yona. Ndaqala ukuhamba ndedwa, ndaqina. INkosi yethu yathi kum: “Yomelela, mntwana wam; ubona kakuhle ukuba uhamba kakuhle wedwa; kwathi kwangelo xesha linye wathi shwaka, ndazifumana ndiphakathi emanzini, kwilizwe lasemzini, kungekho ncedo luvela kuye. umntu.

 

Ukupha kokholo lwakhe nothando lwakhe.

Ndazixhobisa ngobukroti; Ndathembela kubabalo lukaThixo nothando lwakhe, ndaqalisa ukuhamba ngobunzima obukhulu. Indlela yayibonakala inde kakhulu kum! ingqondo yam ibibanjwe luloyiko nokukruquka! Ukudinwa komzimba wam bekundongamela, kwaye ngamanye amaxesha imilenze yam ide igxadazele kwaye ingcangcazele luloyiko. Ukuba ndikhe ndema kancinci ukuze ndiphumle, kulapho kwakubonakala ngathi ndiza kuntywiliselwa emanzini. Ndaqweba isibindi ndaqhubeka nendlela yam ngokugqith’  emgceni.

 

Udlula kumgxobhozo onodaka.

Ndafika ekugqibeleni ekupheleni kwamaplanga, ekupheleni konxweme, umoya weNkosi wandikhokelela kwindlela enzima kakhulu eyayifana nomgxobhozo ozaliswe ngamanzi anodaka, kangangokuba kwakubonakala ngathi nangawuphi na umzuzu ndingaya. iginywe.

 

Ufika emphethweni weshelufu emxinwa kakhulu, phezu kwechibi elizele zizirhubuluzi ezinetyhefu, imifanekiso yeedemon.

Le ndlela yayisende. Yaphela kwiplanga elide kakhulu elalixhonywe kwiintsika zamatye ezimbini. Eli planga, lalingekho banzi kuneminwe emithathu, laliphakathi kwendlela malunga neemitha ezilishumi elinesihlanu ububanzi, ubunzulu kakhulu, kwaye lizaliswe ngumjelo womgxobhozo endandisandul’ ukuwudlula.

Amanzi ayo amileyo ayezaliswe ziiphimpi, oonomadudwane, iinyoka nezinye iityhefu ezininzi (1) ezathi zalukhuphela elulwimini lwazo zaza zaphakama phezu kwencam yemisila yazo ngumsindo nobushushu.

(1) Izirhubuluzi ezinobuhlungu.

 

Ndaye ke ekupheleni kwebhodi apho ndaqwalasela ezi ngozi ezinkulu. Ndaqala ndabiza uThixo ukuba andincede, ndimcenga ukuba andenzele inceba, ndisithi ndiya kutshabalala ukuba akathanga andincede. Emva koko ndazibona ndihlaziyekile ngenkalipho enkulu, kwaye ndinethemba lokuba uThixo uya kundomeleza ngobabalo lwakhe.

UThixo wandazisa, ngokukhanya kwangaphakathi, ukuba eli chibi lalingekho kude esihogweni, nokuba umoya wedemon wawusemzimbeni wezi nyoka ukuze uzidlise ubomi kwaye ubaqumbise ngokuchasene nabo bonke abantu abawela kweli chibi. ngoko nangoko baphulukana nobomi babo baze bawele esihogweni.

Ndandilindele ubukho beNkosi yethu, kwaye ndandifuna ukumbona kwakhona ekwimo yomntu, ukuze andisindise kule ngozi yoyikekayo; kodwa hayi, ndandisazi ukuba umoya weNkosi wawundiqhubela ekubeni ndihambe.

 

Inkulu ingozi abalekayo. Isibindi sakhe. INkosi yethu iyamhlangula.

Ndithe ndakusondela kancinane eplangeni, ndakhubeka ngenxa yokoyika iinyoka ezingaphantsi;

Yandiphakamisa ke iNkosi yethu, ngesandla sayo esithe nkqi emngciphekweni, yandithwala emoyeni, yandisa kumanzi amakhulu endawadlulayo, kukho namaplanga. Ithe iNkosi yethu yandinika isandla sayo ndaziva ndikhaphukhaphu okomntu ongabuvayo tu ubunzima bomzimba wakhe, ndazibona sele ndihamba phezu kwamanzi ndomile njengo Wethu. Undikhokelele ethafeni waphela.

 

Iingcaciso zalo mbono oqulethe izifundo zabo bonke, ngakumbi aboni abakhulu.

UYehova endazi ngako, ekukhanyeni kwakhe, indlela awandihambisa ngayo; kukudinwa, uloyiko, uloyiko neengozi endiye ndachazelwa kuzo. Zonke ezi ntlobo zezinto zibalulekile kwaye zilungile ukuba ziqwalaselwe, njengoko kunjalo nakwabanye bonke, ngakumbi aboni abakhulu nakubo bonke abathe baphambuka kakhulu ngaphandle kwenkolo engcwele yamaKatolika, yobuPostile kunye neyamaRoma, ukuba oko babuyela esifubeni seCawa eNgcwele  , besenza zonke imbuyekezo ngenxa yolwaphulo-mthetho lwabo, njengoko ndiyibona kuThixo.

 

1°. Kuthatha umgudu omkhulu ukuphuma esonweni ubuyele kuThixo.

§. v.

Kwizibane zoKholo.

 

 

Ngesihlandlo somsebenzi weseyile, iNkosi yethu yazisa kuDade ngento equka ukukhanya kokholo.

Ngenye imini ndandisemsebenzini kwiholo yasekuhlaleni, apho babesebenzisa ilaphu elimhlophe elalilungiselelwe ukucheba iinwele zoonongendi. Oku kwakuzokwenza umqukumbelo omkhulu osicaba, ube yi-intshi enye ububanzi. UPhakamileyo welo xesha wagweba ngokufanelekileyo, kangangokuba lo mqukumbelo wawuthe tye kakhulu, ukuze kutsalwe umsonto

ecaleni kwelaphu, ukuze kwenziwe imiqukumbelo ithe tye. Ndabona oonongendi ababenobunzima obukhulu ekutsaleni lo msonto, ndaza ndabuthanda kum ubugcisa nobucekeceke bomoya womntu ekuziseni lo msebenzi mncinane kweyona imfezeko yawo inkulu  .

Ngorhatya, ndikwisisele sethu, ndaqalisa ukuthandaza. Endaweni yokuba ndicinge ndize ndicamngce ngalo mbandela, ndazilibala, yaye ngequbuliso ndazibona sele ndicinga ngalo msebenzi owenziwa nguMphathi wam, yaye engqondweni yam ndandixakeke kuko konke okunxulumene nalo msebenzi. Ngokuqhwanyaza kweliso iNkosi Yethu yabonakala kum yaza yathi kum: “Yabona, mntwana wam, uthe phithi kukucinga ngomsebenzi woMkhulu wakho. Ndandibhidekile, ingakumbi ekubeni iNkosi Yethu yayindibambe esiphosweni yaye ndicinga izinto ezingenamsebenzi; ngenxa yokuba, ngokukodwa, ndathi ngaphakathi kum: “UmPhathi wam akayi kundixelela ukuba ndincedise kulo msebenzi, kuba amehlo am akwanelanga. Ndandisazixelela ukuba: Ukuba undinyanzele, ndifanele ndimthobele? Ndacinga ukuba ewe, kuya kufuneka sithobele, kwaye oko

Kwakukwezi ngcinga apho iNkosi Yethu yandothusayo. Wandinika ingubo yelinen, emhlophe njengekhephu, kwaye icoleke kakhulu, esithi kum: "Nantsi, mntwana wam, jonga ukuba uyawubona na umsonto weli laphu."

Ndaqala ndamjonga ndamgqala; kodwa ngelishwa ! Ngokukhawuleza ndithi: Nkosi, akunakwenzeka ukuba ndikwazi ukubona umsonto omnye kuphela, kwaye andinako ukuzoba omnye ngaphandle kwewebhu. Ndiyibona le canvas icace gca njengesikhumba. INkosi yethu yandiphendula yathi: “Ndiyakholelwa ngokwenene, mntwana wam, ukuba akuyiboni. Ndiza kukunika ukukhanya okuya kukhanyisela iliso lakho lokholo, ongenalo nyulu ngokwaneleyo. »

Kwangaxeshanye wandinika ikhandlela elikhulu, elifana nekhandlela lePaschal, elibengezela ngedangatye elingazange lifane nelangatye lomlilo wezinto eziphathekayo. Eli dangatye laliyinto enyulu nesesibhakabhakeni; yaphakama ngobudlamko obunjalo, kwaye ngendlela ethe kratya nechuliweyo, kangangokuba yayisoloko ibonakala isebenza ngaphandle kokutya nayiphi na indawo yekhandlela. Ke, iNkosi yethu yathi kum: “Vula izandla zakho, kufuneka uyibambe. Bendicinga ukuba zizandla zomzimba. Ndenza umzamo wokuhambisa iingalo zam kancinci ndivule izandla zam ukuze ndifumane ikhandlela. Ndandicinga ukuba ndiza kuhlutha ikhandlela lezinto eziphathekayo; kodwa hayi, izandla zam azidibaniselanga nto, kodwa ndabona ikhandlela elalibekwe yiNkosi Yethu ezandleni zam.

Kungelo xesha owathi umphefumlo wam wakhanyiselwa ngokukhanya okutsha, okupheleleyo kwezulu nokwazulu ngokupheleleyo koko kuchaphazela iinyaniso zokholo. Ngelo xesha, iNkosi yethu yandimela ilinen yaza yathi kum: “Khangela, wethu

umntwana. Ndabona ngokucacileyo kule linen ecikizekileyo, kwaye kwabonakala kum ukwahlula bonke ubuhle obahlukeneyo, kunye nabo bonke ubumnandi balo msebenzi.

 

Ukukhanya kokholo okuchase ukukhanya komntu.

INkosi yethu yongezelela yathi: “Mntwana wam, uyamthanda uMlawuli wakho ngomsebenzi awenzileyo; nantsi enye yobumnandi obahlukileyo; ngumsebenzi kaMoya oyiNgcwele ochasene ngqo nazo zonke izimuncumuncu, kubo bonke ubuchule bomoya womntu. Abantu behlabathi batyhala ubumuncu babo kwanakwimpahla yabo, kwisiselo sabo, ekutyeni kwabo, yaye koku benza ngokuvisisana nomoya wehlabathi. Kodwa phakathi koonongendi, abo benza ngale ndlela bona

ngokuchasene nokugqibelela kwemeko yabo, baze babonise ukuba basayigcinile into yeendlela zehlabathi ezingqondweni zabo. Xa bebeya kuthi kodwa baqhoboshele isikhonkwane esinomoya ochaphazelekayo, nakumoya wehlabathi, oko akundikholisi; kwaye ezi ziziphene ukuba zihlanjululwe ubuncinane kwindawo yentlambululo-miphefumlo.

Nawe ke mntanam ungakhe ukhuliswe nguPhantsi wakho, nangona ndikwazisile ukuba ubucekeceke bakhe abundithandi. Isono sisuka sibi phambi kwam ngokwembono nangenkohlakalo; ke yena uPhezukonke akacinganga ukuba undenza into embi. Zezi mpazamo zobumfama nokungazi ezilityelweyo. »

 

Abantu abangcwaliselwe kuThixo benza iimpazamo ezininzi ukuba bahlawulelwe kwindawo yentlambululo-miphefumlo, besebenza ngomoya womntu.

INkosi yethu yandazisa ekukhanyeni kwayo ukuba nakubantu abangcwalisiweyo kuThixo ngeyure yokufa, kukho inkitha yeziphoso abazenzileyo ngokungazi kwabantu, ngokulibala, nangokunganyaniseki kwabo. . Yinzonzobila yeempazamo ekufuneka zikhutshelwe kwindawo yentlambululo-miphefumlo ngezohlwayo ezoyikekayo nezinde. Kulapho babona khona ukuba balukile kwaye balukile umsonto omele utshatyalaliswe ngokuzohlwaya, ngokuwukhulula umsonto ngemisonto.

INkosi yethu yathi kum: “Zixhobise ngokukhanya kokholo okukhanyisa ngaphakathi ngaphakathi, kwaye kuhlambulule intliziyo. Yiba nyulu ngokwentetho, nangezenzo, nakuzo zonke iintsizi; kuba othe waqhelisela ukuthembeka kum ezintweni ezincinane, ndomlondoloza ngobabalo lwam, ukuba angaweli ezonweni ezikhulu.

 

INkosi yethu inika uDade isibane sokholo ukuba aziphathe kwaye alwe neentshaba zokholo.

INkosi yethu yathi kum: “Kuwe, mntwana wam, ndikunika isibane sokholo sokukukhokelela kwiingozi ezahlukeneyo, kwiindibano ezimbi nakwiindawo zobumnyama ekuya kufuneka udlule kuzo. Uya kuhlaselwa kwaye uthintelwe ngenxa yeCawe yam kunye nam, ndikhusela iVangeli yam ngokuchasene neengxoxo zedemon ekufuneka ulwe nazo. Kodwa ke ndiyaphinda ndithi kuni: Hlalani niwulandela umoya wokholo. »

 

Isipho sokholo sisipho somoya ngokupheleleyo.

Ndayibuza iNkosi Yethu ngokuzithoba konke, ukuba kutheni na ukuba ikhandlela ebendilibonile, nalibeke ezandleni zam, lingaviwa nokulichukumisa? INkosi yethu yandiphendula yathi: “Mntwana wam, olu hlobo lobabalo lungcwele kakhulu kwaye lunobuThixo kakhulu ukuba lunovelwano kwiimvakalelo. Niphiwe ukuba niqinise ukholo lwenu, nilwe neentshaba zokholo. Ngokwesiqhelo, iinceba endizinikayo ukomeleza okanye ukonyusa ukholo zonke zezomoya, kwaye ngokwesiqhelo aziweli phantsi kweemvakalelo. »

Ndiphinda ndithi: Nkosi, xa wawusithi mandilimkele ikhandlela ezandleni zam, kwakutheni ukuze ndizive ndizinqande kangaka emzimbeni wam uphela nakuwo onke amalungu am, ekubeni ndishukumise iingalo nezandla zam kancinci ngomzamo, ukuze ulibambe ikhandlela ondinike lona? INkosi yethu yandiphendula yathi: “Mntwana wam, ndenze ngale ndlela ngabom ukuze ndikwenze ubone yaye wazi ukuba isipho endikuphe sona sesomoya ngokupheleleyo, nokuba izivamvo phantse azinanxaxheba kuso, yaye zazifana nokuba zalelwe. . »

 

Iziphumo ezithi ukukhanya kokholo kusebenze kuDade. Ukuthobela nokuzithoba kwakhe kwiCawa yamaKatolika.

Ndinyanzelekile ukuba ndiphawule apha iimpembelelo esi sipho setotshi yokholo esenze emphefumlweni wam. Emzuzwini endayifumanayo, yandikhanyisela

ukuqonda ngokukhanya okungaphaya kwendalo, okwandenza ndabona, phantse ngephanyazo nje enye, indlela ekwakuyimfuneko ngayo ukugcina iinyaniso zokholo nenkolo yamaKatolika, ukuba zithotyelwe kubo, nokuthobela umama wethu iBandla elingcwele, njengoko UThixo ngokwakhe! Ndabona (njengabanye andazi ukuba ndingakwazi njani ukuchaza) oku kukhanya okwakulanda indlela emfutshane yokuba ndiye ngqo kuThixo.

 

Inzondelelo yakhe yokugcina ukholo lwakhe aze alukhusele kwabo babemhlasela.

Nantsi into ebesayenza kum, ngelashwa lokushiya ikhaya lam. Yandinceda, ngaphakathi kwam, njengesikhokelo nesilumkiso kuzo zonke iintlobo zeengozi, kwaye yandikhusela kwiintshaba zam ngokundilondoloza izihlandlo eziliqela ekuweleni ezandleni zazo. Xa ndandihlaselwa ziintshaba zam, wabeka emlonyeni wam into endifanele ndiyiphendule ukuze ndithethelele ukholo lwam; kuba uThixo wandivumela ukuba ndihlaselwe ziintshaba ezininzi zokholo, ezazindiphethe kakubi, ukuze zindiguqule, zindirhwebeshele emigibeni yazo. Kungoko endathi ndeva ukuba lunamandla kangakanani na ubabalo olusemngciphekweni; wabeka entliziyweni yam nasemlonyeni wam into eyayiza kuphendula ngayo kuThixo nonqulo.

Ndiye ndabhenela kwincwadi yeVangeli, ndithandazela ukuba iNkosi indinike, ngobabalo lwayo, ukuyiqonda, ukuze ndibacacisele, kwaye ndithabathe izixhobo kuyo ukulwa neengxoxo zobudemon ababethanda ukuzenza. kum.

Maxa wambi, bebona ukuba zoyiswa ziimpendulo zam, yaye abantu ababekho baqalisa ukuhleka, bacaphuka, yaye iingqondo zabo zaphazamiseka. Mna ke, ndakubona oko, ndarhoxa de ndabizwa kwakhona, ndaza ndabizwa kwakhona kuhlaselo olutsha, apho kwafuneka ndilwe nezinye izinto zokholo, okanye ezinye izinto zeVangeli.

 

 

(181-185)

 

 

Lo Thixo wokulunga wandikhusela ngokusondeleyo kangangokuba ndayifumana kwiVangeli Engcwele, endiyifundayo kwaye ndicamngca ngayo yonke imihla, ubabalo olutsha kunye nezikhanyiso ezitsha, ezazisebenza kum njengoncedo kwiintshaba zam.

Xa ndabizwa ukuba ndiye emfazweni, ndabuyela apho ngenxa yokuthobela abo babendivulele ityala, ababendinike umyalelo wokwenjenjalo.

Andinakutsho ukuba zingaphi uhlaselo endimele ndiluxhathise ngokuchasene nabo: ngamanye amaxesha bade beze kundivakalisa ngowona mcimbi ubalulekileyo. Lo Thixo wokulunga akazange andivumele ukuba ndihlale kube kanye ngaphandle kokuba ndibaphendule kuloo ngongoma, kwaye ngaphandle kokuboyisela ukuba babenempazamo, nokuba ngokubacacisela oko ndandikufunde kwiVangeli engcwele, noko kwakuthethwe yiNkosi yethu apho. . Bendixela iingongoma zeVangeli ukubhidanisa uninzi lokuchasa kwabo. Maxa wambi bandenzela izinto ezibubudenge ezizezabantu, bexubanisa ezemvelo nezemvelo; ngamanye amaxesha babethetha izinto ezibhidekileyo kum kwiimfundiso ezininzi ezithutheleneyo kangangokuba ndandingasayazi nokuba mandibaphendule ndithini”. Bakubon' ukuba bandishumayeza zonke ezi zinto. Ndakhala kuphela kuThixo: Thixo wam! ndincede ndincede!

 

Lo dade ufumana uncedo olukhethekileyo kuThixo. Uguqula iintshaba ezininzi zokholo.

Jonga apha ukuba ubabalo lunokwenza ntoni na kwezona zifundo zibuthathaka, kwintombi  yehlwempu elilimayo, engazi ukuba yintoni na ukuba ifunde, okanye ifunde okuthile, ngakumbi kwimiba yezakwalizwi yabo yobudemon, ephosa ubuthi bayo yonke indawo, kwaye leyo ujikela okulungileyo kube kubi. Xa kwathi kwenzeka ukuba uThixo afune ukundishiya ndilambatha ngexesha ekwakufuneka ndithethe ngalo, ukuze ndilwazi ngakumbi ubabalo lwakhe, nokumnika lonke uzuko nozuko, kwaba ngala maxesha awathi uThixo wandivumela ukuba ndithethe ixesha elide. kwaye ngakumbi kwinqanaba: ngequbuliso ukukhanya kwakhanyisa ukuqonda kwam, kwaye ngamanye amaxesha iiyure ezipheleleyo ezinesiqingatha zadlula ngaphandle kokuyeka kwam ukuthetha.

Ngenye imini, abantu abaliqela babeze kwindawo ezaziqhutyelwa kuyo zonke iingxoxo zethu; Ndizibone ndikule meko ndisandula ukuyibalisa; ngephanyazo ukukhanya kukaThixo endakulandela ngomoya wam, okwandenza ndathetha, kwaqalisa ukundityhafisa; Ndabe ndingaboni kwanto ndathetha ndingazi noba ndizakuthini. Kodwa ngubani ongayi kukuncoma ukulunga kukaThixo! ngokuqhwanyaza kweliso, ndingakhange ndiyeke ukuthetha nomzuzwana, wabeka engqondweni yam nasemlonyeni umbandela oncomekayo, owandinceda ndazi indlela ekuyimfuneko ngayo ukuzikhulula kuqhekeko, nto leyo eyandixhobisa. iindlela zokulwa nayo, neyandigcina ndixakekile ixesha elide. Lo Thixo wokulunga, ngobabalo lwakhe, woyisa, waza wazuza uzuko lwakhe kulo; ndaza ndakhuselwa kuqhekeko.

bazivakalisa elubala unqulo olulungileyo, kodwa ngokukodwa lowo wayenenkani kunabanye, nowathi, emva kokwazi okungaphezulu kunokundixelela.

 

Bamhlasela kwimfihlelo yokuzalwa komntu, yaye bayayichasa ihambo embi yabefundisi neyonqulo.

Isihloko esandibangela iintlungu nobunzima obungakumbi yayiyimfihlakalo yoKuvela kweLizwi. Babefuna kuphela ukuvuma i-JC njengendoda, evuma ukuba wayebethelwe esiphambanweni kwaye ufile, kodwa engafuni ukukholelwa ukuba uvusiwe.

Kwakusekho enye into eyayindenza buhlungu kakhulu; kuba ndandingafumani mpendulo kuyo; bazilahlela kwihambo yabantu abazahlulele kuThixo, ababingeleli, amadoda nabafazi, abangcwele. Bazichaza zonke iimpazamo zabo kum, benyelisa ngenyaniso nangobuxoki, betyhola uburhelembhi babo, besithi ingxokolo yabo yobutyebi bubugxwayiba, bethetha ezinye izinto ezilikhulu ezingenakuphindwa. Uvumo lwezono babelujonga njengobudenge, yaye abo bavumayo babeyintlekisa: Konke oku ndandinokukuphendula kuphela ngamazwi awathethwa yiNkosi Yethu kwiVangeli, ngokuphathelele oko kuphathelele iSigramente seNtlawulelo nabefundisi bayo; Ndabuya ndathi, Ukuba kukho uYuda othile phakathi kwabapostile, oko kukuthi, kwibandla lonke elingcwele, phakathi kwabalungiseleli balo; igunya le-JC lalingekho ngaphantsi, lihloniphekile, ukuba loyike kwaye loyike ngezigwebo zakhe; kwaye emva koko ndababizela emgwebeni kaThixo kunye nabo bonke ubuxoki babo kunye neentetho ezigwenxa, kwaye ndababuza ukuba ngoko baya kuphulaphulwa na. Kodwa, ngobabalo lukaThixo, babebaninzi abaqondayo ukuba babephambukile, baza baya kuvuma; ukuze, ngaphambi kokuba ndimke kwicanton apho ndandihlala khona, abaliqela babenovuyo lokuthabatha umthendeleko, beqinile elukholweni, yaye babonisa umzekelo omhle ngokuhlonela kwabo. ngobabalo lukaThixo, babebaninzi abaqondayo ukuba babephazama, baza bahamba bayokuvuma; ukuze, ngaphambi kokuba ndimke kwicanton apho ndandihlala khona, abaliqela babenovuyo lokuthabatha umthendeleko, beqinile elukholweni, yaye babonisa umzekelo omhle ngokuhlonela kwabo. ngobabalo lukaThixo, babebaninzi abaqondayo ukuba babephazama, baza bahamba bayokuvuma; ukuze, ngaphambi kokuba ndimke kwicanton apho ndandihlala khona, abaliqela babenovuyo lokuthabatha umthendeleko, beqinile elukholweni, yaye babonisa umzekelo omhle ngokuhlonela kwabo.

 

Iimpawu ezithandekayo zokholo olulula kunye nesisa kumfazi welizwe elihlwempuzekileyo.

Nali elinye igama elincinane elibonisa indlela olubabazeka ngayo ubabalo kwimiphefumlo ethembekileyo nemphulaphulayo. Ngenye imini ndadibana nomfazi omncinci wasemaphandleni, owandicela ukuba ndimfundele iVangeli yeCawa yePalm, ekhalaza kakhulu ukuba akusekho babingeleli, kungekho mntu uvakalisa ilizwi likaThixo. Ndamfundela oku

 

 

 

(186-190)

 

 

ngolonwabo: emva kokuba ndiyifundile le vangeli, ngaphambi kokuba ndimcacisele, nokufumanisa ukuba ufundile na, ndambuza ukuba ithetha ukuthini le ngongoma; waphendula wathi: Dadewethu, andinakuyazi loo nto, andikwazi kwaphela ukufunda; Andinamyalelo ngaphandle kwalowo ndawunikwa ngabefundisi ebuntwaneni bam ukuba ndibhiyozele iPasika yam, kunye nowomfundisi olungileyo owashumayela kuthi kwirhamente yethu. Ndazingisa: Ewe, mhlobo wam olungileyo, ndixelele ukuba ucinga ntoni ngawe ngalo mbandela. Wandiphendula ngokuchane kangangoko kunokwenzeka ngokwenyaniso yokholo. Ndahamba ngawo onke amanye amanqaku ale vangeli, kwaye ndaqala ukumbuza kwakhona ukuba ucinga ntoni ngayo, kwaye ithetha ukuthini na. Wandiphendula, kwaye (ngoko ndikwaziyo kuThixo) wandicacisela yonke into ngenyaniso yokholo, nasezikhanyiso zoMoya oyiNgcwele; nakwiindawo apho bendifuna ukumfundisa khona, ibe nguye owandifundisayo, wandazisa iinyaniso; ebendingayazi.

Ndaqalisa ukumbuza ngeenyaniso zokholo, nakwizimo eziyimfuneko nezifunekayo ukuze avume ukholo lwakhe, nokuba ubomi bakhe busengozini. Ndingakuxelela ukuba lo mfazi mncinane wandithakatha; Ndafumanisa kuye, ngeempendulo zakhe, ukuba umphefumlo wakhe uqine njengelitye, ukuthwala zonke  iintshutshiso neembandezelo ezahlukeneyo ebeya kukholisa uThixo ukuba amthumele zona, okanye umyeni wakhe, okanye abantwana bakhe. Ndeza kuye, ndisithi: Kodwa, sihlobo sam esilungileyo, ukuba ibingumbandela wokholo omele ukhanyelwe, kungenjalo umyeni wakho, abantwana bakho kunye nawe bekuya kugwetyelwa ukufa okukhohlakeleyo ngohlobo lwentuthumbo eyoyikekayo. !... Ndade ndabonisa kuye ukuthantamisa kwabazukulwana bakhe. kwaye  yena

wathi kum: Dadewethu, ngobabalo lukaThixo, andisayi kuze ndilukhanyele ukholo lwam, kwaye andisayi kuze ndinikezele kubazwilakhe kuzo zonke iintuthumbo abanokundibangela ukuba ndibandezeleke kuzo  . Kwakungenxa yothando lukaThixo ukuba waziyekelela,  kwaye

njengoloyiso, ukubona umyeni wakhe nabantwana bakhe befa apho baze bafe kunye nabo ngeJC kunye nesizathu esihle.

Bendizithanda zonke iintshukumo ezintle ebezisenziwa ngufefe kulomfazi ngokuthembeka kwakhe. Ndandinokuthi, ngaphambi kokuba ndimshiye, ndincomele ukunyamezela kwakhe, ndimbongoza ukuba acele kuThixo oko konke

ubomi bakhe bonke, ukuba angayifuni enye indlela ngaphandle kwaleyo uMoya oyiNgcwele wayembeke kuyo, ukuba asoloko elandela le ndlela intle yeenyaniso zokholo nevangeli, aze ayifundise ebantwaneni bakhe .

 

 

§. VI.

Elukholweni, ethembeni naseluthandweni, kumandla asisiseko osindiso.

 

 

Ukholo, ithemba kunye nothando, izinto ezintathu eziyimfuneko ukuze usindiswe.

Kufuneka ndicacise apha into endiyibonayo kuThixo malunga nokulunga kokholo, ithemba kunye nothando lobuKristu. Ngokomzekelo, ndibona kuThixo ukuba ukuze abe ngumKristu olungileyo, kufuneka abe nokholo oluphilileyo noluphilileyo; Ndithetha ukholo olubonakala ngokwasemisebenzini; ukuba olu kholo kufuneka lukhatshwe lithemba elomeleleyo, elisekelwe kwiimfanelo zikaJC, athe lo Msindisi ungcwele wazibeka njengentembeko esifubeni seBandla elingcwele, nangokuzithemba okukhulu; ukuba ngokugcina ngothando umthetho weJC, esithe sonke safunga ukuba siya kuwugcina ekubhaptizweni kwethu, nokuba ukuthembeka kubabalo uJC alugxininise emiphefumlweni yethu kubhaptizo olungcwele ngokholo, ithemba kunye nothando, uya kuzuza usindiso olungunaphakade.

 

Ukholo, ithemba kunye nothando, umgaqo kunye nekhonkco lezinye iimpawu.

Ezi mpawu zintathu zixhasana kwaye ziyaphilisana, yaye ndibona kuThixo ukuba xa zithe zaqiniswa kakuhle kumphefumlo oqhelisela izenzo zawo zobuKristu ezixhomekeke kuzo, ezi mpawu zintathu zobuthixo zisenawo la mandla. ezinye izidima emphefumlweni, nokuzimanya ngokusondeleyo ngakumbi, ngeqhina lobuthixo ngokupheleleyo, elukholweni, ethembeni naseluthandweni. Kukule nto, nangale ngqiqo, apho ndibona khona kuThixo into eyenza umKristu ogqibeleleyo.

 

INkosi yethu, ngexesha lobomi bayo basemhlabeni, yayifuna isenzo sokholo kwabo yayifuna ukubaphilisa.

Xa iNkosi yethu, ngexesha lobomi bayo basemhlabeni, yahlala emhlabeni, yalihambahamba ihlabathi ukuseka iVangeli yayo nokuguqula aboni

ilizwi lakhe elingcwele, ndaphawula into eyandinika isibindi esikhulu sokuzincamathela ngakumbi nangakumbi kwiinyaniso zokholo, nokuba ngokholo oluphilileyo oluhambelana neempawu ezintathu zobuthixo. Nantsi ke into endiyiqapheleyo  kwiVangeli eNgcwele, eshunyayelwa yiNkosi yethu. Ilizwi lokuqala ngokuqhelekileyo awayelibhekisa kuboni, xa wayenqwenela ukuphilisa umzimba nomphefumlo, lalileli: Ngaba uyakholwa, okanye unokholo? Aphendula la mahlwempu awoni, athi, Ewe, Nkosi, ndiyakholwa. Lo Msindisi uthandekayo kwakungafuneki ukuba ababuze ukuze bazi ukuba babenokholo na; yena wabona ingaphakathi leentliziyo zabo, kwaye wayesazi ngcono kunabo boni bangamahlwempu ukuba babenabo na okanye bengenabo. Kambe ke nantsi into eyathethwa yiNkosi kum: “Kuba lo mbuzo ndawubuza abantu bakowethu, ukuze ndibazise ukuba kungenxa yesi sidima sokholo ndandifuna ukubanika ubabalo lwam, ndibanike oko bakucelayo, kwangelo xesha linye.

 

 

(191-195)

 

 

ukubonisa kwiinkulungwane ezizayo imbeko endandinayo ngexabiso elixabisekileyo lokholo. Kukangaphi, itsho iNkosi yethu kum, ndisebenzisa eli gama xa ndivakalisa ilizwi lam elingcwele! Lowo ukholwayo kum wosindiswa; ke lowo ungakholwayo, uselegwetyiwe. »

 

Ngaphandle kweCawe, njengangaphandle kokholo, akukho lusindiso.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba ngaphandle kweCawe eNgcwele akukho lusindiso, njengokuba ukholo lwangaphandle alukho usindiso. Masingcangcazele, kwaye masihlale sinoloyiko lokungabi nalo  obu butyebi buxabisekileyo bokholo; Ndithetha ukuba, olu kholo luphilayo, ludlamkileyo, lukhatshwa lithemba nothando, kwangaxeshanye ngazo zonke izidima uThixo azicelayo, nokuba usipha ngeenceba zakhe ukuze sibe ngamaKrestu alungileyo. Masithandaze ngokungapheziyo eNkosini Yethu ukuba isinike obu butyebi buxabisekileyo bokholo; masithi kuye, njengaloo moni ulihlwempu kwiVangeli, lowo iNkosi yethu ibuza ukuba wayekholelwa kuye. Njengoko wayeluva ukholo lwakhe luhexa, waphendula wathi: Ndiyakholwa, Nkosi, kodwa yandisa  ukholo lwam.

 

Ukunyuka kothando kuSister.

Ndiyasibona kuThixo isizathu sokuba iNkosi Yethu phantse isoloko isebenzisa intshukumisa yokholo, singasathethi ke ngentshukumisa yethemba, okanye yothando, eya kuzisa emhlabeni ukuze ivuthe iintliziyo zabo bonke abalandeli bayo. Lo Thixo uluthando, wasinika umthetho ongcwele wokuba simthande. Olu thando lobuthixo, ngokutsho kweNgcwele uPawulos olungileyo, lungaphezu kwazo zonke ezinye izidima; akazange abe nobunzima ekuthetheni ukuba uthando lwesisa lwalungaphezu kokholo nethemba; kwaye ndibona kuThixo ukuba uthando lutsalela kulo ngokwalo zonke ezinye izidima njengokungathi kukoyisa, kwaye ziguqule zonke zibe luthando. Owu uthando! Owu uthando olungcwele! ehlala isitsha ngaphandle kokukutshisa: Owu uthando lwanaphakade! Owu uthando lwanaphakade olungasoze luphele, kwaye luya kuhlala luhleli, ewe,

Ndibona kuThixo, kwaye isizathu sokholo sityhila kuthi, ukuba xa umKristu othembekileyo, ngexesha lokufa, eshiya umkhosi weCawa ukuba ahambe kwaye adibanise, ngokufaneleka kweJC, kunye neCawa eNqobileyo; kuya kuba ngelo xesha ukholo nethemba ziya kuba yinto engento. Abo basikelelweyo baya kukubona oko bakukholelwayo ngesidima sokholo; baya kuba nakho konke oko isidima sethemba sabanika ithemba; kodwa ngenxa yothando luya kubakhukulisa luvela macala onke, njengentlanzi phakathi elwandle;

yaye ukusa kwixesha elingenammiselo baya kuba njengabaginywe yimisinga yoyolo lothando, yaye baya kuba noloyiso lokuba nalo olu thando: abasayi kuphila ngaphandle kothando nothando.

 

Isizathu sokuba kutheni iNkosi yethu incoma ukholo ngaphandle kokuthetha ngesisa. Ukholo, umgaqo wothando.

Ndisibona kuThixo isizathu sokuba iNkosi yethu income ukholo kwiCawe yakhe, kangangokuba wayimisa njengeyokuqala kwezi zintathu iimpawu zobuthixo. Ndiyazi ukuba sisidima sokholo (le sibane sobuthixo ngokupheleleyo, esikhanyisela umphefumlo, njengoko besele nditshilo), olunexabiso elincomekayo lokuphakamisela umphefumlo kulwazi lukaThixo. ngakumbi ukulunga kwakhe okungapheliyo, kwenceba yakhe enkulu, nothando lwakhe olungenasiphelo, athi ngalo abandezeleke aboni kubugwenxa babo, abo uthando lwakhe olungenasiphelo luhlala luzolulela kubo iingalo zakhe ukubamkela enguqukweni.

Olu kholo lufanayo lusenza ukuba umphefumlo ubone ukuba lo Thixo mnye, ugcwele ukulunga, ukuba umoni usebenzisa kakubi umonde wakhe kunye neenceba zakhe, ngaphandle kokubuyela kuye ngokunyanisekileyo ngenxa ye-JC kunye nokuguquka, lo Thixo.

Onamandla uya kuluguqula uthando lwakhe nobubele bakhe bube yingqumbo nesohlwayo sokusesikweni.

 

Ukuguqulwa kwaboni kwenzeka ngokholo.

Xa umphefumlo uzivumela ukuba uchukunyiswe kwaye uvule amehlo awo kwezi nyaniso zibaluleke kakhulu ekusindisweni kwawo; xa isibane sokholo, ndiphinda ndiphinda, ndibenze baziwe kwaye baqondwe; xa esithi, ekuboneni ezi nyaniso ziye zambetha zaza zamchukumisa: yenzekile, ndiyanikezela kwaye ndiyazinikela kulo Thixo onamandla onke ngako konke aya kufuna ukukwenza kum; sisenzo esikhulu apha asivelisayo ngenxa yokholo. Ndiyabona ukuba lo mphefumlo ufana naboni abahluphekileyo abaphendula iNkosi Yethu xa yayisemhlabeni.

: Ewe, Nkosi, ndiyakholwa; nokuba iNkosi yethu, ngeli lizwi, yabathululela ubutyebi bobabalo.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba yile nto isenziwa yiNkosi yethu yonke imihla malunga nemiphefumlo emininzi ehlwempuzekileyo engcwatywe ebumnyameni nasethunzini lokufa kwesono. Ubabetha kuqala ngokucaca kweenyaniso ezintle zokholo, aze ngaloo ndlela abalungiselele ngakumbi nangakumbi ukuba bamkele intabalala yobabalo lwakhe; kuba, emva kokuba olu kholo lubenze bamazi uThixo, baze bangene kolu lwazi ngomnqweno oyinyaniso wokuba babe ngabakhe bonke, kungoko athi uThixo aphuhlise iinceba zakhe kule miphefumlo.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba lo mphefumlo unethamsanqa, othe wakrola kuphela imitha yokholo elula, okwangoku uziva ezelwe ngaphakathi kuye, ngolwazi alukhawule ngesidima sokholo, ithemba eliqinileyo kububele kunye nenceba UThixo, osekwe kwiimfaneleko zeJC Kula malungiselelo angcwele apho umlilo ongcwele wothando lwe-JC uvuthiswa.

 

 

(196-200)

 

 

lo mphefumlo, kwaye uyawuvuselela, uyawuphilisa kwaye awenze aphile kuzo zonke izenzo zemisebenzi emihle, kwi-charity ye-JC, nangothando lwe-JC, xa ethembekile kuye.

Iziphumo zesisa emphefumlweni.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba lo kumkanikazi mhle wothando lukaThixo, xa ethe wangena emphefumlweni, uwenza uphile kuye nangaye; iguqula yonke into ibe luthando kunye nothando; akakhe avinjwe; luhlala lusanda de lukhokelele umphefumlo esifubeni sikaThixo ngokwakhe, obubomi obungunaphakade; kwaye ndibona kuThixo ukuba umphefumlo ovukelayo kulo kumkanikazi wezinto ezintle, othi, ngobubi bakhe, angafuni ukulandela intshukumo yakhe yobuthixo, kwaye amnyanzele ukuba amshiye, alahle ubomi ukuze awele ekufeni.

 

Isiphelo esibi semiphefumlo ephila ize ife ngaphandle kwesisa.

Ndibona kwakhona kuThixo, yaye ndiyaphinda ndithi, umphefumlo ongenalo uthando lukaThixo awunabomi, nokuba uthando lukaThixo lububomi bomphefumlo wethu, kunokuba umphefumlo wethu ububomi bemizimba yethu. Yeha! Ndiyangcangcazela ngenxa yam nangenxa yonke imiphefumlo eya kuba nelishwa, ekupheleni kwemihla yayo, ukufa ngaphandle kothando; kuba ndiyabona kuThixo ukuba le miphefumlo ihlwempuzekileyo ayinabo ubomi, kwaye ifele ubomi obungunaphakade nobusikelelekileyo bothando lwenene lobuthixo olunika ubomi esifubeni sikaThixo ngokwakhe. Ah! imiphefumlo ehluphekayo! abasayi kuphila ngaphandle kokuba babandezeleke ngonaphakade. Njengesohlwayo sokungafuni ukumthanda uThixo ebudeni bobomi babo, abasayi kuze bamthande lo Thixo uthandekayo, yaye, ngenxa yoko, bahluthwe olu thando lobuthixo, baya kuba befile ngonaphakade. Yeha! Yeha! Ndibona kuThixo ukuba inxalenye enkulu yemiphefumlo ilahlekile ngenxa yokwaphula lo mthetho mkhulu ungcwele kwaye ungcwele wothando lukaThixo!....

Ngoxa babephila emhlabeni babengamaKristu ngegama kuphela, yaye bavumela, ngokungathi kunjalo, ukuba kucime kubo ukholo, ithemba nothando, zizinto ezisisiseko zonqulo nosindiso. baye bachitha ubomi babo kubugwala obuthile, ukuba dikidiki nobuvila kwimibandela ephathelele usindiso lwabo nasekulibaleni ngokuzithandela izibhambathiso zabo zokubhaptizwa. Ngoko ke, ukholo kubo yayilukholo olufileyo, olwalungasenamandla, ithemba labo lilambatha; uthando lobuthixo lucimile kwaye lubalahlile, kuba olu thando lobuthixo alunakuhlala entliziyweni apho ukholo lucima.

 

UmKristu ophila ngaphandle kwesisa ngokukhawuleza uzifica kwiziyolo zenyama aze aphulukane nokholo.

Eyona nto ibuhlungu ndiyibonayo kukuba oku kwenziwa emphefumlweni phantse bengakhange bakuqonde oko: emva kokutsala iminyaka eliqela yobomi bayo ngokuthamba, ukungakhathali nokuba ndindisholo oko kuphathelele inkonzo kaThixo nosindiso lwayo, ingenamsebenzi nangamandla ngaphandle nje kokuqonda. ngenxa yeminqweno yabo kunye neziyolo zabo ezingalawulekiyo, baphela ngokunamathela iintliziyo zabo kuzo zonke izinto ezalelweyo kunye neziyolo zolwaphulo-mthetho.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba le miphefumlo iyondla kwaye iphile ngendalo kuphela, kunye nendalo eyonakeleyo. Le miphefumlo ihlwempuzekileyo imfanyekisiwe kwaye ngokungathi ifunxwe kulonwabo lweemvakalelo; ngokokude bathi, bakuba begqalwe ngokufanelekileyo njengabamanywe ngokusondeleyo kumzimba wenyama, besuka kowomoya, babe ngabo bonke abemvelo, nabo bonke abenyama, ukuze bangabi nakukufumana ukudla okunesondlo ngaphandle kokuzonwabisa kwemvelo nokwemvelo.

Enoba uthetha nabo ngonqulo olungcwele okanye iinyaniso zokholo, ngokwenene abazi nto kwaphela ngayo, ngenxa yokuba emazantsi eentliziyo zabo abasafuni kukholwa ngaphandle koko kukholekileyo kubo; bawagatya amanqaku amaninzi okholo baze bazenze ngathi bayakholelwa kwabanye. Kwaye kuvela phi oku kuguquguquka kumphefumlo ongcwele kwaye ungcwele ngokwendalo yawo? Ndibona kuThixo ukuba luvela kwinto yokuba abasenalo ukholo, lucimile kubo, abasathethi, abenzi nto ngaphandle kwemvelo. Into ebangela ubumfama babo obupheleleyo kwimiba yokholo kukuba indalo, eqhele ukuzondla ngeziyolo zenyama, isoloko ifuna ukubona okanye ukuziva, ukungena okanye ukwazi okuthile kwimibandela yokholo: ngaloo ndlela abanakuphinda bakholelwe kwizinto zokomoya; abangaweliyo phantsi kweengqiqo zabo. Yeha, yeha, yeha loo miphefumlo iimfama ezimfamekise ngabom!

 

Ukulahlekelwa lukholo, unobangela wabo bonke ububi beCawe.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba ngala mashwa avelise kwaye ondla iiyantlukwano ezininzi kangaka kunye noqhekeko ehlabathini, ukususela ekuqaleni kweBandla kude kube ngoku; owaphosa imiphefumlo emininzi kangaka esihogweni; eziye zaphalaza igazi elininzi, nezibe ngunobangela wemfazwe nendyikitya engaka.

 

UDade, ebuntwaneni bakhe, weva umyalelo ovela kumfundisi werhamente yakhe malunga nokuqiniseka kokholo. Iingcamango zakhe kule nto.

Xa ndandineminyaka esixhenxe okanye esibhozo ubudala, abazali bam bahamba nam ukuya kuMthendeleko oNgcwele. Umphathiswa washumayela ngeenyaniso zokholo neenkolo, njalo njalo

into owawunayo ukuze wenze abantu bakholwe kwaye wenze ukuze basindiswe. Wasixelela ukuba masingazithembi iingqiqo zethu ezikhohlisayo; ukuba ukholo aluwela phantsi kweengqiqo; ukuba kwakuyimfuneko ukuseka ukholo lukabani elizwini leNkosi Yethu, nokukholelwa kuko konke oko wakuthethayo waza wakutyhila, nako konke oko iBandla elicebisa ukuba sikukholelwe. Lo mlungiseleli ulungileyo weNkosi wasiphathela umzekelo kwalapho. Imitha yelanga yadlula kwiipayini zeglasi, yaya emazantsi epulpiti. Uyayibona, watsho, le mitha yeLanga? Ewe. Iqinisekile loo nto

 

 

(201-205)

 

 

ilanga liyakhanya, kuba nantsi imitha yalo phambi kwamehlo akho. Kulungile! oko kusityhilelwa lukholo ngokungathandabuzekiyo kuyinyaniso ngaphezu kokuba kuyinyaniso ukuba sibona ilanga ngokubengezela kwemitha yalo; ngokuba amehlo ethu, abona kuphela okuwela phantsi kwengqiqo, anokusikhohlisa, kwaye ukholo alunakuze lusikhohlise.

Ndaphulaphula ngenyameko enkulu, waza uThixo wandinika ubabalo lokuvula ingqondo yam kwiinyaniso ezinkulu ezazibhengezwa kum. Kodwa umzekelo wemitha yelanga wandikhwankqisa kakhulu, kwaye wandinika kakhulu ukucamngca ngengaphakathi lam, ndathi mna ngaphakathi kwam: Ngokuqinisekileyo lilanga, ekubeni likhupha; kodwa kufuneka ndinamathele kuphela koko iCawa indifundisa kona ngabalungiseleli bayo; Ndimele ndiyikholelwe indlela andifundisa ngayo. Ndabuyela ekuqiqeni ngaphakathi kwam ngenye indlela, ndisithi: Unqulo lwethu lumele lube ngcwele kakhulu, ekubeni ukholo olusenza silugcine lulolomoya yaye lungokobuthixo kangangokuba iimvakalelo zethu azinakufumanisa nto; ekubeni iimfihlelo ezintle zonqulo lwethu zingaweli phantsi kweengqondo zethu,

Ndabuya ndathetha ngaphakathi kwam ngaphakathi, ndingaphandle kwebandla, ndicinga ngoko ndikuvileyo, ndathi, Thixo wam, ndenzele inceba, ndiphe uMoya wakho oyiNgcwele nokuqonda, ukuze ndibe nokholo, ndikholwe yiyo yonke inyaniso ekhoyo. wandifundisa; undenze ndikholelwe, kungekhona ngentshukumisa yemvelo, kodwa ngeengcinga zokomoya nezobuthixo, ekubeni obu buhle bungcwele bubomoya ngokupheleleyo yaye bungokobuthixo ngokupheleleyo. Bendisathetha ngaphakathi kwam: Ukuba ingqondo yam ithe yandikhathaza, yandikhokelela ekuqiqeni, ndoyilahla ngesenzo sokholo; I

Ndiya kubacekisa njengesilwanyana esingakwaziyo ukuba sithetha ntoni, kwaye sinokundikhohlisa.

 

Ingqalelo kaDade ukuba azifundise iinyaniso zokholo, kwaye azomeleze kakuhle kwesi sidima.

Ngamathub’ athile, ndicinga ngonqulo lwam, endandilufundiswa yonke imihla, ndandibuza enoba oko ndandikufundisiwe kuyimfundiso yokholo kusini na, yaye ndandidla ngokuphendulwa ngokuthi ewe,  yaye kwakufuneka iyikholelwe ukuze isindiswe  .

Ndithathe ngononophelo olukhulu, ngakumbi, ukufunda izinto ezintathu ezilungileyo zezakwalizwi, kwaye ndiphawule kakuhle ukuba zithetha ukuthini, kunye nengcaciso enikelwa ngabefundisi. Kodwa eyona nto yandinika ukutyhileka ngakumbi kukukhanya endakufumana kuThixo, ngobabalo lwakhe lobuthixo, kwingcaciso yamanqaku eCredo ngesiFrentshi . Ndafumanisa oko kuncomeka, kwaye ndathi: Nkosi! Hayi, ukuba ngcwele kwayo umyalelo wakho! Ndafundiswa ukuba ndikholelwe kuThixo, uBawo onguSomandla; Ndacamanga ngaphakathi kwam, ndathi, Ewe, Thixo wam, ndiyakholwa kuwe, nalilizwi lakho elingcwele.

 

Ukholo luyamxhasa uDade kuzo zonke izilingo zakhe.

Ukholo lwam lomelela njengoko ndandikhula; ngobabalo lukaThixo, bendisoloko ndizikhokele ngezikhanyiso zokholo, nangokholo lweze, ndahlulwe kuko konke uvakalelo lwendalo. Kubo bonke ubomi bam, ukholo belububutyebi bam kunye nentuthuzelo yam. Kuzo zonke iintsuku zam ezimbi, ndithetha ngekhondo lezilingo ezinobundlobongela nezinenkani, athe uThixo wayefuna ndihlangabezane nazo, ngokuchasene nokholo kunye neemfihlelo eziphambili zenkolo yethu engcwele, ngamanye amaxesha zidiniwe kwaye zifunwa ngumtyholi. ukuhlawula ngemikhonto yayo enetyhefu, apha, ngobabalo lukaThixo, sisixhobo endandisoloko ndisiphethe esandleni sam. Yayilukholo; ndathi, ndayinikela intliziyo yam kuThixo, ndathi, Thixo wam! Ndiyakholwa, kwaye ndikulungele ukubandezeleka nantoni na oyifunayo, nokuncama ubomi bam ngenxa yokholo lwam. Ngokuba ilizwi,Ndiyakholelwa , ndathi kuThixo ukuba intliziyo yam ngokubanzi yayikholelwa kuwo onke amanqaku okholo, kwezo ndingazi, kunye nezo ndandizazi. Kungoko ke, ebunzulu besihendo sam, ndafumana, ngokholo lwam, uncedo olukhulu, nokomelela okukhatshwa yinkalipho entsha, ukwamkela nokukholelwa zonke iinyaniso zokholo, nokuba ubomi bam busengozini  .

Ukholo lukhokela kwizinto ezingaqhelekanga, apho umntu ubeka umngcipheko wokwenza iimpazamo kunye nokulahlekelwa.

Ukholo lwaba luthuthuzelelo kum, kungekuphela nje ekuhendweni kwam, kodwa nakwizinto ezininzi ezingaqhelekanga ezindehleleyo, njengemibono, izityhilelo, neemeko ezininzi ezingaqhelekanga, athe uThixo wafuna ukundicinezela. Ngeli nqaku, ndiyazi ukuba kwezi zinto zingaqhelekanga umntu usengozini enkulu yokuphazama, yokuwela kwinkohliso, kunye nokulahlekelwa kwesi sihlandlo. Ukholo lwalusisikhokelo sam kunye nentuthuzelo yam. Kwakukuye apho ndabeka khona amandla am nalo lonke uthando lwentliziyo yam, ngokubhekisele kuko konke okungaqhelekanga njengokungakhathali, ndingathethi ngokucaphukela, nangenkcaso enkulu, kangangokuba ngamanye amaxesha ndandisoyika ukuyichasa intando kaThixo. nokumkhubekisa. Into endayenzayo ke kukudlala

 

Ukhetha ubukho beNkosi yethu ngokholo kunobukho bakhe obunengqiqo ngokubonakala.

Umzekelo, olu kholo luphilayo lundenza ndikholelwe ukuba uThixo ukho ngokwenene kwiimfihlelo zethu ezingcwele nakwisakramente engcwele yesibingelelo kunokuba, ngobabalo olungaqhelekanga, wabonakala kum waza wazivumela ukuba abonakale kum, nokuba amehlo omzimba , ngokubona okunengqiqo, nokuba kukwamehlo omphefumlo, ngokubona kwengqondo, kunye nolweyiseko olusondeleyo lokuba ngokwenene yiNkosi Yethu.

 

 

(206-210)

 

 

Nantsi indlela, ngobabalo lukaThixo, ndayisebenzisa ngayo kwiimeko ezininzi apho ubukho beNkosi yethu babonakala kum ngendlela engaqhelekanga. Xa ndazifumana ndiphambi kweNkosi yethu, phambi koMthendeleko oNgcwele, ndihlala ndisoyika ukuqhathwa, ndabuyela  elukholweni, ndaza ndathi entliziyweni yam: ukuba lo unguThixo olungileyo, andisayi kumcaphukisa ngokholo. Ndaqubuda ndaza ndanqula iNkosi Yethu kuMthendeleko oSikelelweyo, ngesenzo sokholo, ndisithi: Nkosi, ndikholelwa ngokuqinileyo ukuba unguThixo oyinyaniso noMntu oyinyaniso; ukuba ukwiSakramente eNgcwele  ye

isibingelelo; kwaye kulapho, Nkosi yam, ukuba ndikubona kwaye ndicingisisa ngawe ngamehlo okholo. Xa ndandinamava okanye ndisiva naziphi na izityhilelo, ndathabatha ngenyameko enkulu, ngobabalo lukaThixo, ukuba ndizicikide ngoko nangoko, ngesibane sokholo; ndathi ndakubona into echasene nokholo, ndayikhanyela, ndayilahla ngokukhwankqisayo. Ngaphandle kokholo ngendalahleka kudala. Olu kholo lube sisikhanyiso sam ngeli xesha lobumnyama awathi uSathana wabuphosa amaxesha amaninzi engqondweni yam ngeminqweno yam, kunye nezilingo awayezivuse kum.

 

UmKristu wokwenyaniso umele akulungele ukuphulukana nayo yonke into aze abandezeleke yiyo yonke into ngenxa yokholo kula maxesha amashwa esizifumana sikuwo.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba umKristu wokwenyaniso, kuwo onke amazwe, umele abe kwimeko yokulahlekelwa yiyo yonke into, abandezeleke zizinto zonke, ade ancame ubomi bakhe ngenxa yokholo. Ukuba ngumKristu ogqibeleleyo, nokukwazi ukugcina ukholo lomntu kumanyathelo  ayingozi obomi, kwaye ngakumbi kwimihla embi esikuyo, nalapho onke amaKristu aya kuba khona, kuwo onke amashwa ayenzekayo kwaye aya kwenzeka phakathi. ngoku nakwisiphelo sehlabathi, kufuneka sifumane indlela yokusabela kwithemba nakwisisa  .

 

ICANDELO IV.

Kwingqibelelo ababizelwa kuyo abantu abazahlulele kuThixo. Yandisa kangakanani imbopheleleko yezifungo zonqulo? Ukuxhatshazwa okuthe kwangena eluntwini, kumadoda nabasetyhini. Kufuneka baziphathe njani oonongendi abathe uvukelo-mbuso wababeka ngaphandle kweendawo abahlala kuzo ehlabathini?

 

§. 1st.

Uluntu lwenkolo luye lwawa kwinzondelelo yalo, lwagqwethwa kukuswela ubizo nomoya

ihlabathi elangena kulo. Ngoobani imiphefumlo ethandwa kakhulu kwiNkosi yethu eCaweni?

 

Esi sibhalo sithetha ngesidiliya sikaYehova, ndithetha iintlanga zamadoda nabafazi; umahluko phakathi kokulungileyo nokubi; yoviwo omele lwenziwe kubizo lobomi bonqulo, ukuze kube nako ukwahlula abo bakaThixo kwekaMtyholi; kuba inxalenye enkulu yeemonki noonongendi bazilahlekela elunqulweni ngenxa yokuxhatshazwa, izithethe ezingendawo, ngokukodwa ngumoya wehlabathi.

 

Izikhalazo zeNkosi yethu kuluntu olugqwethwe ngumoya wehlabathi.

Yathi iNkosi kum: “Isidiliya sam sisenkangala; bazisingele phantsi; baye batshabalalisa okanye bathabatha zonke izinto endandizibeke apho ezazizezona zixabisekileyo nezixabisekileyo  ; isuke yavuthuluka, yaba ziziqhamo ezibi, ezikrakra, entliziyweni yam; Úyintlekisa yeentshaba zam, Abadlula ngendlela bayinyhathele ngeenyawo. Ndivumele oko ndinomsindo, utsho uYehova.  »

Ndandisazi ke kuThixo ukuba aba baphangi basebusuku, babefike emfihlekweni, babengabomoya oqalekisiweyo wehlabathi, ababezenze ngobuqhetseba, bezenza ngathi bahlonela uThixo, kwelona nani likhulu lemibutho yonqulo yabanye abantu. abesini esahlukileyo.

 

Umoya wehlabathi waziswa eluntwini ngobizo olubi.

Yatsho iNkosi kum ukuthi, Yabona, ezi zintlanga, ukuba zizaliswe ngumoya wehlabathi; UThixo wade wandenza ndabona, ngaphakathi kwabo, ukuba umoya wehlabathi wawungene njani phaya ngobizo olubi, ndithetha ngobizo oluyilwe ngusathana. Xa iidemon zibona ibutho elilungileyo, elingenanto yomoya wehlabathi, elizaliswe ngumoya kaThixo, nalapho imiphefumlo idityaniswe kunye ukuze iphumeze imisebenzi yayo nokukholisa uThixo, ziyavutha ngumsindo; kwaye bengafumani nethuba lokuyihlasela, bathi ngokwabo: kufuneka singenise amantombazana ehlabathi, ngokuwenza akholwe

ukuba banobizo lokunqula, nokuba uThixo ubabizela kuluntu olunjalo.

 

Ulutsha lwehlabathi oluye lwaba lunqulo ngaphandle kokwenza nantoni na.

Kukho amantombazana athanda ihlabathi kangangokuba ngamanye amaxesha, ekushiyeni ibhola, apho afumene ihlazo elithile, afike, ngomoya wokukrokra kunye nentiyo, kuluntu ukuze acele ophakamileyo, athethe naye.

 

 

(211-215)

 

 

emfihlekweni ubizo lwabo, olukhatshwa, bathi, yiminqweno elungileyo; kodwa ezantsi baneeprojekthi zobuxoki kuphela zesidima. Babanga ukuba babizwe nguThixo; bafuna ukungena koluntu ngokunyanisekileyo nangemini enye.

 

OPhakamileyo uyabavuma, bekhohliswa zizimilo zabo ezibonakala zilungile.

Lo uPhakamileyo ulihlwempu uyakuvuyela ukubona izimilo ezintle ngolo hlobo; ukholelwa ukuba luloyiso lobabalo. Usathana xa ebona indawo yokungena akapheleli apho, ulanda nabanye abasuka kwidolophu ezimeleneyo, nabasuka kwiidolophu ezikude, kungekudala nje sizakubona ekuhlaleni abantu abangaphezu kwesixhenxe ukuya kwesibhozo, bonke bekhokelwe ngabathile. umoya kaSathana emsebenzini wabo.

La ngamasela aya kuthi, emfihlekweni ebusuku, asinqumle isidiliya sakhe, ngokutsho kweNkosi. Umtyholi uthatha ngononophelo olukhulu ekukhuthazeni ubizo lwabo, kwaye abenze babonakale belungile, emehlweni oonongendi nasemehlweni abo. Ubenza baqonde ukuba ukuba babuyela ehlabathini baya kugwetywa lulonwabo abaluvayo kuzo zonke izithethe zehlabathi. Ubabonisa imizekelo emihle enikelwa ngoonongendi kumazwe angaphandle, aze abeyisele ukuba nabo benze okufanayo; ukuba umthetho awunzima kangako, kwaye baya kuwusebenzisa kakuhle. Umtyholi uthatha inyameko enkulu ukubagcina bemanyene kumoya omnye, nakwimvisiswano efanayo kunye nobuhlobo.

yendalo. Amaqabane abo asehlabathini, kwanabazali babo, abasileli ukuza kunikela iintetho ezinde kubo ngeziyolo zehlabathi, baze babaxelele yonke into ebangel’ umdla nesenokwenzeka ukuba iya kubakholisa.

 

Oonongendi abatsha, emva kokwamkelwa kwabo, benza unxibelelwano oluyimfihlo kwaye balungiselele ulonwabo.

Yile ndlela idemoni eqala ngayo ukwenza ukuphulwa kolu luntu, ngokuzisa umoya wehlabathi ngokuphindaphindiweyo kwegridi. Aba babizwa ngokuba ngabathumeli sele behlanganisene ndawonye, ​​beqhutywa ngumoya kaSathana; kwaye xa bengaphandle kobuso benkosikazi, kulapho bavulelana iintliziyo zabo, kwaye babelane ngeemvakalelo zabo ngokuphindaphindiweyo.

Kuya kufunyanwa umntu oya kuthi: Njani, mhlobo wam olungileyo, sinokuncama ulonwabo olungaka nolonwabo olungaka ebesilunandipha ebholeni, emdlalweni, nomntu onje? Abanye baya kumkhuthaza, bephendula bathi: “Mhlobo wam olungileyo, kwenzeka njani ukuba oonongendi beli butho baluncame kakuhle olu lonwabo? Ungoyiki, bongeza kwangoko, siya kuhlala singabahlobo bakho abalungileyo ubomi bonke: siya kukuhlawulela ngako konke esinako ngenxa yolonwabo oya kulahlekelwa. Simanyene ngentliziyo nasengqondweni, siyakwazi ukuzenza sonwabe. Ngaphezu koko, siya kubabona esangweni bonke abahlobo bethu nezalamane eziya kuthetha nathi zize zivuyise iintliziyo zethu ngokuthetha nathi ngoloyiso lwehlabathi. Siza kwenza abahlobo

 

Bafihla kwaye bakhohlise inkosikazi yabo kunye noPhakamileyo ngexesha le-novitiate yabo.

Bafundisana indlela yokuphendula kwinkosikazi xa ibenzela ingxelo ngobizo lwabo, kwaye bobabini bagcina imfihlo yeeprojekthi kunye nezicwangciso abazenzileyo kunye.

Le nkosikazi ihlwempuzekileyo iyababuza bonke aba postulants: ibuza abo ibaziyo ukuba bangabantu behlabathi, ukuba basaziva benomtsalane kwiziyolo zehlabathi, kwaye yintoni isizathu sobizo lwabo. Nganye kwezi

aphendule athi: Mama ubumnandi endabufumana emhlabeni yilento endenze ndancama ukuba ndize ndibe ngunongendi, kuba ndandicinga ukuba ndingahlala emhlabeni ndiza kuzilahla. khona ke andalubeka khona usindiso lwam; kwaye zonke, enye emva kwenye, zinezona njongo zibalaseleyo zobizo. Banikwa umkhwa ongcwele, abathi bawuthabathe ngokuthandabuza, kwaye ekuhambeni kwabo ngokuqhelekileyo bahamba kunye; bathobela kuphela ngokunyanzelwa; bazibophe ngokungathi ngamatyathanga ukuze bazithimbe ekuqwalaseleni ulawulo loluntu abangene kulo, ukuba bazikhwebule kuzo zonke iziyolo abanokuthi emva koko bazithabathe, phakathi kwabo okanye esangweni; kwaye bathi omnye komnye: Kufuneka silumke, bodade bam, kuba ukuba sihamba rhoqo esangweni, oomama bethu abalungileyo baya kusitshutshisa; baya kuhlala besemva kwethu: kungcono ukusithimba okwethutyana.

 

Emva komsebenzi wawo, anikezela ngokukhululekileyo kumoya wehlabathi, aphule imithetho, yaye azuza ububi kuluntu.

Nantsi ke imini yokwenziwa komsebenzi: apha bonke bangamakholwa, kuphela ngegama nangesiqhelo. Abakaqinisekiswa kwamsinyane ukuba abasayi kuphinda baphume kwakhona, bavumele ukuba banike amandla, kangangoko banako, kulo lonke utyekelo lwabo lwehlabathi, baze basabele ngasesangweni, apho zonke iintlobo zabantu behlabathi. Kolu tyelelo, ubani uthetha ngazo zonke iziyolo ezingekho mthethweni nemigaqo yehlabathi; iinoveli ezininzi kunye neencwadi ezihambelana notyekelo lwabo zibolekwa kwaba nongendi.

Aba nongendi babi abathobeli

 

 

(216-220)

 

 

kuphela xa izinto zingabakhathazi ngaphandle. Bakuphepha ukuthobela kuyo yonke into abanokuyifihla kwinkosikazi yabo nakwizikhulu zabo. Benza amatheko ukuze babukele ebusuku, banike izidlo phakathi kwabo, baze batye ngezibiliboco nezitya ezilungiselelwe bona, abazali nezihlobo zabo abazizisele bona emfihlekweni nangokuchasene nokuthobela.

Bendingasoze ndigqibe xa ndixela yonke into endiyibona kuThixo ngaba nongendi, ukugqabhuka kwabo, kunye nezo bazibangelayo. Kungekudala umoya weli hlabathi liqalekisiweyo unwenwela kulo lonke uluntu, kwaye nanko, usuka kwingcwele, uphantse wagqwethwa ngokupheleleyo.

 

Umzekelo omhle wabanye oonongendi bokubhideka kwabanye.

Noko ke, kusoloko kukho oonongendi abambalwa abema beqinile nxamnye nomlambo, bagcine ucwangco, baze bamisele umzekelo omhle. UThixo uyakuvumela ukuba adideke amagwala angathembekanga kuye. UThixo undazise izinto ezininzi ngomzekelo ombi wale ndawo. Sele nditshilo ukuba uThixo akazange andinike olu lwazi ngokukodwa, kwaye loo nto yayingengombuzo, umzekelo, woluntu olunjalo, ucwangco, okanye ibandla elinjalo.

 

Uluntu lweNkosi yethu, kunye nelo likaMtyholi.

UThixo undenze ndazi ukuba umtyholi wayenoonongendi bakhe ekuhlaleni, iNkosi yethu nayo yayineyakhe, nokuba umtyholi wayenoluntu phantse lonke olulolwakhe, iNkosi yethu nayo yayineyakhe; nokuba wayeyazi kakuhle indlela yokubaqonda, nokuba uya kuzisombulula ngokwakhe ngenye imini. Kodwa eyona nto yayindikhathaza kakhulu yayikukuba uluntu, amadoda nabafazi, abangabaNkosi yethu, bambalwa ngenani kunabo bomtyholi.

 

Umoya wehlabathi usangena kuluntu ngokusebenzisa abahlali behlabathi.

INkosi yethu iphinde yandenza ndabona ukuba umoya wehlabathi ungena ngesango kwezinye iindawo, uze ungene kwabanye ngabakhweli behlabathi nabangagogotye lutho abaqhelana noonongendi. Ngale nto babenza baphulukane nomoya wemeko yabo, ukuze umoya wabo wonqulo ngokukhawuleza uguquke ube ngumoya wehlabathi. Aba nongendi babeqale kakuhle, kwaye bebizwe nguThixo ngenene, kodwa ngelishwa baziyeka bahamba nomsinga womoya wehlabathi owangena kulo lonke uluntu. Aba nongendi bangamahlwempu baphela kakubi.

 

Ziziphi iimpawu zobizo olulungileyo.

Ndabona kuThixo ukuba amantombazana azinikela ekungeneni kwinkolo engcwele, efuna ukwazi ukuba ngokwenene abizwe nguThixo na, kwaye ubizo lwawo luphuma kuMoya oyiNgcwele, kufuneka ahlolisise emazantsi entliziyo ukuba yintoni na. eyona motif.

Inqaku lokuqala lobizo olulungileyo yintiyo yehlabathi. Khangelani, ukuba nilithiyile na ihlabathi, kwanezithethe zalo njengesono; Okwesibini, jonga ukuba umnqweno wenguquko uyakuvuselela na eluthandweni lukaThixo nokuqinisekisa usindiso lwakho. Okwesithathu, ukuba kwezi njongo kuvela umnqweno wokuguquka entliziyweni yakho. Ah! ke ngoko sithabathe, kwaye ubulele kuThixo ngesi sipho sixabisekileyo, kuba asiphiwanga kubo bonke; ningazenzi oonongendi bakaSathana abalahlekiswayo, bazikhohlisayo ngeengcebiso zikaMtyholi, obenza bonke babila besoma benqwenela ukuba ngoonongendi, abavuyisele kubizo lwabo, lo gama befuna kuphela ‘ukuziphosela entwenini. ibutho labantu, lingacingeli ukuba ubizo lwalo luvela kuThixo, okanye hayi,

 

Iindidi ezahlukeneyo zobizo olubi.

UMtyholi ulahlekisa abaninzi. Abanye abayi kuba naso esinye isizathu ngaphandle kokoyika ukuba ngamahlwempu ehlabathini, benobutyebi obuncinane kakhulu, nobuphakathi, kangangokuba babone ngokucacileyo ukuba akuyi kubanela ukugcina ubomi babo.  ihlabathi. Baze ke bathabathe eli sigqibo, ngenxa yesijwili nobubi, bathi, Ndiya kuba ngunongendi kweli lizwe, linendawo ekuyiyo, kuba inobutyebi obukhulu, obusefashonini; oonongendi baphathana kakuhle apho, banenkululeko eninzi yomoya nokunxibelelana nabantu behlabathi. Ukuba bendiphila ngomvuzo wam omncinane, ngokuqinisekileyo ngendingondleki kangako njengokuba bendiya kuba lapho. Banewayini phantse yonke imihla, bahlala belungile i-cider, ikofu kunye notywala beentlobo ezininzi. ubomi.

Kukho abanye abathi uMtyholi abalahlekise ngesinye isizathu. Ngesihlandlo somona abangenako ukuwuthwala, baya kuziphosa kwibutho labantu ukuba babe nenkolo. Kwabanye, iya kuba yilahleko yotyekelo olubalekayo kubo. Abanye, ekugqibeleni, baya kube bengene elunqulweni besuka kwezinye iintshukumisa ezimbi. Basuka babuqonde ubugwenxa babo; kodwa intlonipho yomntu iyabathintela ekuxeleni abazali babo. Bakhetha ukubhenca usindiso lwabo kunokuba balushiye uluntu. Kungoko ke umtyholi uvusa amantombazana zonke iintlobo zeengozi ezilishwa, ezisebenza njengezizathu zokuba ngoonongendi.

 

Ububi obenziwa ngoonongendi ababongoza izalamane zabo ukuba zingene elunqulweni.

Kusebububi obukhulu ukuba oonongendi bacenge amantombazana, bawalumkise, okanye bawakhuthaze ukuba abe ngoonongendi kwindawo abahlala kuyo. Ngamaxesha athile

iyakuba ngumakazi ojola nomtshana wakhe, ngamanye amaxesha abe usisi otsala udade wabo. Ngamanenekazi aselula aneembono zabantu kuphela, yaye yiloo nto kuphela ayifunayo ukuze abe nonqulo.

Amantombazana akhokelwa ngusathana ukuba abe ngoonongendi ahlala ekhetha olona luntu luphazamisekileyo, kwaye ezaliswe ngumoya wehlabathi, kuba lo moya uhambelana notyekelo lwawo.

 

Umfanekiso wabantu behlabathi. Izikhalazo zeNkosi yethu ngalo mbandela.

INkosi yethu yandazisa ukuba kwakukho amaqela kaSathana, awayeyintabalala kwaye ezaliswe bubutyebi; nto leyo eyabangela ukuba baphile emhlabeni. Oonongendi bazityhalela kude izinto kangangokuba bachitha phantse yonke imihla yabo besonwaba yaye bechwayitile nabantu behlabathi, ngaphandle, esangweni, nangaphakathi; ukuba wayenamatheko ekofu kunye nezimuncumuncu ezininzi kakhulu; ekugqibeleni, ukuba amashwamshwam banikwa khona iwayini kunye neendidi ezininzi zeliqueurs; ukuba abantu behlabathi, nokuba kukwesiphi na isini, beza apho ukuze bazonwabise ngoonongendi, abangabaniki nto ukuba basele, badle, bahleke baze bavuye kwikonsathi namadoda nabafazi behlabathi.

INkosi yethu yathi kum: “Jonga aba nongendi behlabathi, indlela abandicaphukisa ngayo, indlela abaye bazimanya ngayo kwaye bazibophe ngovuyo lwentliziyo neentshaba zam! Kutheni bengashiywanga emhlabeni? Ilishwa labo lalingenakuba likhulu kangako; kuba beze apha kuphela ukwenza isihogo sabo sibe lusizi ngokuphindiweyo. »

Yandula ke iNkosi yethu yathi kum: “Ubuya kuthini ngezo ntombi zinkulu, ezithi, phantsi kwesihloko sonqulo, iintliziyo zazo zizaliswe ngumoya wehlabathi? Bezukile nabakhukhumele ngamampunge, ukuzithemba kunye nesidima seofisi yabo, balawula njengookumkani abancinci phezu kweemonki eziphantsi kwentobelo yabo. Ingathi bathetha namalakhi. Kufuneka bamatsha ngokona phawu luncinci lwentando yabo okanye umoya wabo ongaqhelekanga. Ngumoya wehlabathi obalawulayo bonke kwezi zindlu ziqalekisiweyo. Kunzima ukufumana umSirayeli omnye okanye ababini abalungileyo. Iinkampani zehlabathi ezibonwa ngumntu apho, kunye nezidlo ezimnandi ezinikwa kwezi zindlu, ngamanye amaxesha zinezixhobo ezininzi kunezo zabantu behlabathi. Kuyimfuneko ke ngoko ukuba le abbé enkulu, kunye nenkolo eziliqela anayo ngenxa abahlali.

Aba babizwa ngokuba ngabonqulo ndingababiza ngantoni? Ndiya kuzithiya ntoni na izindlu zabo? Indlwana yamasela, okanye inqaba okanye idemon inika ingqesho kubemi bayo abamiselwe umhlaba ophantsi. Lowo uthanda ukulithanda ihlabathi, undithiyile mna; lowo uhleli kweli hlabathi ngokuthanda kwakhe, uyasuka kum, ndibe nam ndiphuma kuye. Abantu bazo zonke iinkalo zobomi abazibandakanya nehlabathi, abazinikela kulo ngovuyo lwentliziyo, bandifulathele. Ndithi kubo ndinomsindo, Ndiyakophula nam; Ndikufulathele; Andisenanto ngaphandle kokubanda nobungqongqo kuwe. Ukuba abaguquki, bangathi sele begwetyelwe kwintuthumbo yesihogo, kwaye bangaze babe nanxaxheba nam.  »

 

INkosi yethu iyamthuthuzela uDade ngokumazisa imiphefumlo ayithanda kakhulu entliziyweni yakhe eCaweni yakhe.

Yathetha iNkosi kum, yathi kum, Ndikucinezele, ndikwenze buhlungu intliziyo yakho, ngokukubonisa onke amanxuwa esidiliya sam; kodwa zonke azikalahleki. Yizani, nibone, nivuye ngam; ukuba ndikubonise khona intyantyambo yasendle, nenyibiba yasezintlangeni. Ndifuna ukuqala ngokunibonisa eyona miphefumlo ithandekayo entliziyweni yam eCaweni; yaye ngokungathandabuzekiyo bangabo bonke abalungiseleli bam abathembekileyo, abathi, ngenxa yothando lwam, badlule kubomi babo kwimigudu ebuhlungu nebulalekayo yobulungiseleli babo bobupostile ukuze kusindiswe imiphefumlo, ngaphandle kokuba ngenxa yoko bazityeshele” kumbandela wosindiso lwabo. »

Yatsho iNkosi kum ukuthi: “Ndiza kubamkela ebukumkanini bam, babe ngookumkani bam, yaye baya kuba zizithandwa zentliziyo yam. Ngomgwebo wam ndiya kubenza bahlale ezitroneni, bagwebe kunye nam izizwe ezilishumi elinazibini zakwaSirayeli. Ndiya kwabelana nabo ngozuko lwam nolonwabo lwam ngonaphakade. Ziya kuba ngoyena usondeleyo kwitrone yam ebukumkanini. Kubonakala ngathi uThixo, ngonaphakade, uya kuvuyela ukuthulula esifubeni sakhe esithandekayo

phezu kwabo, njengezona zithandwa zakhe zithandekayo, ezona ntando zimnandi kunye nazo zonke izinto eziyoliswa yintliziyo yakhe. Uya kubakhukula aze abatshise ngomlilo osulungekileyo nomnandi kangangokuba bonke abasikelelweyo kulonwabo lwabo baya kuvuya baze bamzukise uYehova, besithi: Uzuko, umbulelo, neentsikelelo kuYise, kuNyana nakuMoya oyiNgcwele! Uzuko kuBathathu Emnye obalaseleyo kulo lonke uthando, ngayo yonke imivuzo ezukileyo eniyinika abalungiseleli benu. Baya kumemelela bebulela, besithi, Yoo! Nkosi, uya kudlula, kwaye ugqithise unaphakade, ongasoze uphele!

§. II

Uluntu olukhutheleyo noluqhelekileyo. Umphefumlo wenkolo unyuka ukuya kuthi ga kwimfezeko ngokugcinwa okuthembekileyo kwezifungo. Ukusekwa koluntu olutsha ngamanani amancinci kakhulu.

 

 

Umfanekiso woluntu olungcwele. Uyinjongo yenceba yeNkosi yethu.

INkosi yethu yathi kum: “Uyafuna na ukuza kuwubona umdiliya wam, lo ndiwuthandayo? Ufana nesitiya esihle, esityelwe ngeentlobo ngeentlobo zemithi emihle  , evelisa iziqhamo eziyintabalala. Ndithetha iindawo zonqulo zesini zombini. bona ngabam, nam ndingowabo. Bahamba eluthandweni lwam naphantsi kwekhusi lam. Umoya wehlabathi kunye nothando lwehlabathi alunakungena apho. Qondani, nibone, utsho uYehova kum; Ndiza kukubonisa ingaphakathi labo, indlela elungelelene ngayo, kwaye iyahambelana nesidima sombuso wabo.  »

 

Ingaphakathi kunye nengqibelelo yangaphandle apho oonongendi abalungileyo bahlala bezama.

Yandula ke ingqondo yam yakhanyiswa kwimfezeko yangaphakathi nangaphandle yoonongendi abangcwele, abathi ngentliziyo yabo yonke babambelele kwimfezeko yobume babo. Ndiyazi ke kuThixo, ukuba unongendi olungileyo, ekunyamekeleni ngentliziyo yonke ekuthandeni uThixo, ekugqibeleleni, uThixo uselegqala ugqibelele, ngenxa yokuba elubona entliziyweni yakhe lo mnqweno mkhulu wokufezeka, nemisebenzi yakhe. ihambelana nalo mnqweno. Ndiphinde ndalibona ihlabathi libethelelwe emnqamlezweni, kwaye nalo libethelelwe emnqamlezweni ngenxa yehlabathi, kwaye lifile ngokupheleleyo kuzo zonke izinto zalo ezingento yanto nakuko konke ukubawa kwalo ngentiyo eyamthwalayo.

 

Ingqibelelo yabo yangaphandle. Abakhe baye esangweni ngaphandle kwaxa kuyimfuneko. Baqhube ke bathathe.

Kwezi ndawo zoluntu akukho sango, nditsho nakwabo bathumelayo, ngaphandle kokuba leloshishini losapho olungxamisekileyo. Asazi ukuba kunjani ukuya kwigridi yoonongendi abathile; kodwa kukho iimeko eziyimfuneko ngokupheleleyo ukuya apho kuMphathi, kunye nabo banyamekela iidiphozithi, nabaphethe imicimbi yesikhashana yendlu. Ndaxelelwa indlela ababeziphethe ngayo apho. Umzekelo, uSuperior obuzwa esangweni, uya apho kunye nokuthozama komfazi wokwenene kaJC, isigqubuthelo siphantsi, amehlo akhe athobile, akaphosa amehlo okufuna ukwazi apha naphaya, ewalinganisela amazwi akhe ngendlela yokuba kungabikho. usinda kuye ngokungeyomfuneko. Emva kokuqubuda kwesaphetha, ubuza abantu ukuba ngubani babize ngowuphi umbandela abazizisayo, kwaye yintoni na? Abantu behlabathi bamenza aqonde ukuba beze kumtyelela nokuze kumbona. Ngoko nangoko lo nongendi olungileyo uyaphendula: Umfazi olungileyo we-JC akazi ukuba yintoni na ukufumana ukutyelelwa, okanye ukuzibuyisela. Oko ndikuyekela kubantu behlabathi; asisadlelani naye; Kuvakala ukufa kwethu (1). Sizincamile thina, nazo zonke izinto zehlabathi; safa emhlabeni, sangcwatywa noJC, nangokuthanda kwakhe. Uthe xa ephuma, ubacenga ukuba bangazihluphi ngokubuyela kweso sifundo sinye, ebaxelela ukuba uya esangweni kuphela ngemicimbi yasekuhlaleni.

(1) Ibinzana elaziwayo ezilalini. I-Toll idolo kukulumkisa, ngesandi sentsimbi, ukuba kukho umntu osanda kufa, ukuze simthandazele.

 

Umfaki-mali uya apho kuphela ngeshishini lediphozithi yakhe, kwaye uya apho ngomoya ofanayo noPhakamileyo wakhe.

Xa kusenzeka ukuba kunyanzelekile ukuba baye esangweni, kwaye abantu behlabathi balungiselela ukubazisa iindaba ezithile okanye ezinye.

amabali, aboyiki ukunyanzelisa ukuthula kubo, bathi kubo: Umfazi we-JC akakwazi ukuthetha ngemicimbi yehlabathi, akafuni  ukufunda ezintsha; yafa kuko konke. Ufuna nje ukwazi ubomi bukaJC  ebethelelwe emnqamlezweni.

 

Owongamileyo, ewoyika umoya wehlabathi,  ubagocagoca ngenyameko abo baphikisayo.

Boyika kakhulu ukuzisa kuluntu lwabo iintlantsi zomlilo womoya wehlabathi, kangangokuba xa abo bathukayo bezibonakalisa, oPhakamileyo uyababuza yaye akawathembi amazwi abo. Uyababuza enoba balishiyile kusini na ihlabathi, nokuba balithiyile na. La magqiyazana aphendula ngelithi afuna ukuyincama, kungoko ecela ukungena ekuhlaleni. Wathi ke iNtloko kubo, Madoda, niza kubuya nive oko; yiya enguqukweni; amanxeba ezono zenu asegazini. Hamba uye kucela ingcebiso, kwaye unike ingxelo yobizo lwakho kumchazi-nkonzo wakho; kwaye xa ulithiyile ihlabathi, kwaye unezothe ngokwenene kulo entliziyweni yakho, uya kubuya, kwaye siya kubona into esiya kuyenza.

Bakuba bengenile eluntwini, uPhakamileyo uyayiqwalasela ngobulali nangengqiqo iminqweno, utyekelo nokutyekela kwabo ebubini, ngakumbi esangweni nasesangweni, kwaye ngamanye amaxesha uyabavumela ukuba baye apho, ukuze babone izalamane zabo ezisondeleyo. ; ngaphandle koko, inqaku legridi. Uqwalasela ngenyameko, kodwa ngaphandle kokungqwabalala, inkangeleko abayenzayo xa bephoxwe yisango. Xa ebona inkangeleko elusizi, ebonisa iimpawu ezimbalwa zokuhlekisa kunye nokuphalaza iinyembezi, lo nongendi olungileyo ubona ngokucacileyo ukuba kule ntliziyo kusekho uthando lwehlabathi, ekubeni ebona kulo ukuthambekela nothando lwegridi. ngoko  yena

 

 

(231-235)

 

 

wathi kulo postulant: Ntombi yam, buyela kubazali bakho, kwaye uhlambulule intliziyo yakho ekuthandeni ihlabathi, ude uzive uyithiyile kwaye unenzondo kulo, endaweni yolu thando onalo kwakhona kuye.

Emva koko, ukuba ubizo luqhubeka luvakala, unokubuya, ukuba uyafuna.

 

Uthando lwe-JC ludibanisa bonke oonongendi phakathi kwabo.

Isisa ababenaso oonongendi phakathi kwabo sasingcwele ngokupheleleyo. Bonke babenentliziyo enye kunye nomphefumlo omnye kumanyano lothando lwe-JC; bonke babumba kunye umnqweno omnye kunye nentando enye yokukholisa uThixo. I-Superior yayinobumnene bukaJC kunye nothando olunobubele awayelusebenzisa ukulawula onke la mantombazana njengomama olungileyo. Ekugqibeleni, bebonke benza iparadesi ababeyilindele. Kwakubonakala ngathi bayaqalisa apha oko baya kukwenza ngonaphakade kulonwabo lweparadesi.

Ndiyayigqibezela into echaphazela umphandle wabo; kodwa iNkosi yethu ifuna ndithethe into malunga nengaphakathi labo apha.

 

Imfezeko yabo yangaphakathi. Bakwenza kubandakanyeke ekuzalisekeni kwemisebenzi yamaKristu neyenkolo.

Imisebenzi yabo njengoonongendi ayibathinteli ekujongeni imisebenzi yabo njengamaKristu, njengoonongendi abafezekileyo. Ezi ngongoma zimbini zemfezeko zibakhonza njengamaphiko amabini, apho uthando lobuthixo lubaphakamisela phantse rhoqo kwilizwe labo lokuzalwa, bengenanto yehlabathi kwaye bekude namaxhala ale nkulungwane kunye nazo zonke iziyolo zayo: imiphefumlo yabo izaliswe ngumoya kaThixo; Intliziyo enyulu nemsulwa iyabaphilisa, kwaye ubukho bukaThixo bubakhokelela kuzo zonke izinto.

 

Ukufezeka kwezibhambathiso ezine zonqulo.

Kodwa makhe sibone ukuba la maqabane anyulu akugqala njani ukufezeka kwezibhambathiso zawo ngokubanzi, kunye nokufezeka kwesibhambathiso ngasinye ngokukodwa. Kodwa ngelishwa! Ngubani na onako ukuyithetha, engayiqondi kakuhle? nguMlingane ongcwele kuphela, olingqina lemfezeko yemisebenzi yabo, kunye neziqhamo zothando lobuthixo, abanokuthetha ngayo. Noko ke, uThixo ufuna ndithethe amazwi ambalwa ngesifungo ngasinye. Ngaloo ndlela, ndiza kujongana ngokufutshane nemfezeko yezifungo ezine zenkolo.

 

Ukufezeka kwesifungo sokuthobela. Bathobela kuThixo nakuThixo.

Isifungo sokuthobela. - Aba bafazi banyulu, ngothando oluthambileyo nolunothando, bazinikela kumyeni ongokobuthixo, baze baqwalasele, ngesibhambathiso sokuthobela, oko akucelayo kubo, noko kufuneka kwenziwe ukuze kwamkeleke ngakumbi kwintliziyo yakhe yobuThixo. Emva koko bamthobela uThixo ngentshukumo yothando nentando yabo; bathobela uThixo apha emhlabeni, kanye njengokuba iingelosi zimthobela ezulwini. Bathobela uThixo iimpefumlelo zobuThixo, iintshukumo zobabalo, abavuma izono zabo, abongamileyo abakhulu, nabongamileyo babo. Bamlulamela wonke umntu njengoThixo;

 

Ukufezeka kwesifungo sobuhlwempu. Bayithatha loo JC njengomzekelo.

Isifungo sobuhlwempu. - Baphonononga ukuba banalo naluphi na uthando lwendalo okanye ukuzicingela. Ndithini na? bangamahlwempu kuzo zonke izinto zehlabathi, bahluthwe kwanezona zinto zilungileyo zilungileyo. Ngaphandle kokunamathela kuyo nantoni na, kwaye bahlulwe kuyo yonke into engengoThixo, bathatha njengomzekelo ubuhlwempu obungcwele boMlingane wabo ongcwele, abacinga ukuba ngumzekelo wabo.

Ukususela ekuveleni kwakhe enyameni balandela le Mvana kaThixo naphi na apho aya khona, ndithetha kuzo zonke iimfihlelo zobomi bakhe, ukufa kwakhe nenkanuko yakhe, kuyo yonke imigudu ebuhlungu awayivayo evakalisa iVangeli yakhe, nakuyo yonke intuthumbo. wabunyamezela ubomi bakhe obuxabisekileyo emthini womnqamlezo. Aba bafazi bangcwele benza intlanganiso naye izihlandlo eziliqela ngemini: bayamcamngca kuzo zonke iimfihlelo zakhe; bayabona ukuba isiqalo sobomi bakhe sihambelana nokufa kwakhe, nokuba uphelelwa ezingalweni zobuhlwempu obungcwele, njengoko wabufumana ekuzalweni kwakhe emkhumbini phakathi kwezilwanyana ezibini. Kulapho aba bafazi bangcwele banxila khona kwaye batshiswe ziinkanuko zobuhlwempu bakhe obungcwele, ukucekiswa kwakhe okungcwele, iinkathazo zakhe, ukubulaleka kwakhe;

 

Kukuphi ukunyanzeliswa, ukubandezeleka kunye ne-opprobrium, i-JC iye yanciphisa ngenxa yokuthanda intlupheko.

Andizange ndigqibe ukuba bekuyimfuneko ukuthetha yonke into elandelayo kunye nayo yonke into ehamba nentlupheko engcwele yeJC, kwaye yonke into emele yenziwe ngabo bafuna ukumxelisa kwaye bahambe ekhondweni lakhe. Kodwa makhe sive ukuba ithini na

U-JC ngokwakhe xa ethetha ngempahla yomhlaba, ubuntofontofo, izinto eziluncedo kunye neziyolo zobomi, zizinto zokuqala umntu azikhupha kuzo.

ubuhlwempu obungcwele. Iimpungutye zinemingxuma yazo, neentaka zineendlwana zazo, itsho iNkosi yethu; ke yena unyana womntu akanayo nendawo le yokufaka intloko. Kwakhona iNkosi yethu ngomlomo wabaprofeti bayo ithi:

“Mna ndingumbungu, andimntu; Ndisisingcikivo somntu nenkunkuma eluntwini. »

Aba ngamaqabane axabisekileyo entlupheko engcwele kunye nokugatywa okungcwele. Owu ubuhlwempu obungcwele bukaJ.C., anjani amandla kunye namakhubalo onawo! Umthakathise ukumkani wookumkani, umnxilise ngomnqweno nothando lokuba akudle ilifa. Uthe ke ekufeni uthe wakuthanda ngakumbi; wamthoba waba sisingcikivo, wamhambisa eze, njengempethu, wamsa emthini wobugwenxa.

 

 

(236-240)

 

 

umnqamlezo, njengoko watshoyo. Ubuhlwempu obungcwele be-JC, ngayiphi indlela owanelisayo ngayo ngenxa yothando oluninzi wakuthwala ngexesha lobomi bakhe obungcwele kakhulu, ukuya kwinqanaba lokuba wayesoloko efuna ukuba naye njengeqabane? lo ke ngumvuzo omnika wona ekufeni! NguJC ozitsho ngokwakhe: “Ndizele zizingcikivo. »

Olo lugqithiso lothando uJC aluthwalayo kwintlupheko engcwele, kunye nokulahlwa okungcwele okufana nentombi yakhe enkulu. Intoni! Nkosi, ubuhlwempu bakho bufana nokulamba nokunxanwa kwakho na? ukwanelisile, kodwa waneliswa yintoni? Yeha! Nkosi, izingcikivo; Ngaba leyo yayiyinjongo yeminqweno yakho? Ewe, Nkosi, maye! Yeha! wanelisekile! Yiyo loo nto uthi yonke into igqityiwe, ngokungathi ufuna ukuthi yonke iminqweno yakho ifezekisiwe.

 

Isibongozo esiphilayo sokwamkela ukwahlukana kuyo yonke into kunye nokuchaswa

Ezi ntombi zinyulu zihonjiswe ngefleur-de-lis yokumkani wazo uYesu, ongumyeni wazo nesithandwa seentombi ezinyulu. Baxelisa, ezi ntombi zinyulu, emhlabeni  , oko kwenziwa zizithunywa zezulu ezulwini; kodwa into endiyithethayo, izithunywa zezulu zinekhwele ngayo, njengoko iintombi zixelisa ngokusondeleyo kumzimba ofayo naphakathi kweengozi ezininzi, kwaye ukuba, ngesidima nothando kumyeni wabo, zinyulu njengoko nazo. zezendalo. Kungalo mbandela apho iingelosi zikhwankqisiwe kwaye zikhwankqisiwe zisithi: Owu mmangaliso wobabalo! Owu ummangaliso wothando! Uzuko kOsenyangweni ngonaphakade kanaphakade  !

 

Ukufezeka kwesibhambathiso sokuvala. Ukuba wedwa kwentliziyo, kunye nonxibelelwano olusondeleyo kunye noJC

Ukuvala isifungo. “ Utsho uYehova ngoonongendi abazabalazela imfezeko ukuthi: “Ndiya kusibeka emqwebedwini intanda yam, kude nehlabathi, nengxolo. INkosi yethu, ekuthetheni ngolo hlobo, ichaza ukuba wedwa kwentliziyo. Xa esithi: kude nehlabathi kunye nengxolo, musa ukukholelwa ukuba umyeni kaThixo wenza umfazi wakhe abe likhoboka leengcinga ezininzi ezingacacanga kwaye ezingenamsebenzi, ukuba angathethi ezimbi, kwaye uvumela ukucinga kwakhe ukuba amthwale apha kwaye apho ngaphandle kokuba ngunkosikazi. Ifanelana nonongendi ombi okanye umfazi ongathembekanga; ngenxa yoko ithi indoda engcwele: “Ndiya kumsusa ehlabathini nakwingxokozelo; apho ndiya kuthetha entliziyweni yakhe. »

Obunjani bona ubulolo! Hayi ukuzola kwentliziyo nengqondo! okanye kunoko zeziphi iincoko ezimnandi umyeni ongcwele anazo nomfazi wakhe ohlala egadini evaliweyo, kwaye indoda eyedwa inesitshixo! Akukho bani ungena khona ngaphandle komfazi wakhe naye ngokwakhe. Ungena kuwo xa ethanda, nangaliphi na ilixa lemini okanye lobusuku asukuba ethanda.

 

Indlela iNkosi yethu elungisa ngayo kwaye ilungise iimpazamo zeqabane layo. Ukunyaniseka kwakhe.

Ungena apho ngamanye amaxesha ukuze abone ukuba umfazi wakhe akasebenzi okanye akalele, okanye ukuba iziqhamo zezenzo zakhe zifikelele ekuvuthweni, ukuba kukho naziphi na ezihlabayo okanye ezigwenxa; ukuba akukho, kuzo zonke izenzo zakhe, into elimaza intliziyo yeqabane elingcwele. Wandula ke ahlolisise enoba zonke izenzo zakhe zenziwa ngokugqibeleleyo kusini na; umbonisa iimpazamo zakhe ububele nokumthoba ngokunzulu; umazisa ukuba uthando analo ngaye alumvumeli ukuba abone la mabala asentliziyweni yakhe. Yiyo ke le nto ndisithi, Indoda engcwele iyahamba, ibuye xa ithandile, ibuye; umyeka encwina neenyembezi ezibuhlungu ngokukhubekisa umyeni wakhe. Ucinga ukuba umqumbele, yaye ufuna nje amathuba okuxolelana naye aze amkholise. Ngale nto uyiphinda kabini yonke inzondelelo yakhe ngomoya wenguquko nothando  .

Wathi akubona uMtshakazi oNgcwele ebuyela emyezweni wakhe, wathetha la mazwi kuye: “Yiza, sithandwa sam, emyezweni wakho! Wathi kutheni egadini yakho ? Kungokuba lo myezo uyintliziyo yakhe, awamnikayo uYehova, neziqhamo zawo zonke, nezenzo zakhe zonke, nemveliso yakhe yonke; Kungenxa yoko le nto uwubiza ngokuba ngumyezo womyeni, ovalwe nguye ngaphakathi nangaphandle, ukuze kungangeni bani kuwo, ingengumyeni. Yiza, wathi, kwakhona, yiza kwaye undwendwele zonke izenzo zam; yiza uze ubone, Owu zintanda zam, iziphoso ebendiza kuzenza ngothando lwam oluncinci kunye nentwana yam

yokuphaphama. Emva koko uMtshakazi oNgcwele wamwola, wangena ezingalweni zakhe, wamnika ukwanga okungcwele koxolelaniso, wathi kuye: Iqabane lam, sithandwa sam, intliziyo yakho ifana nomyezo ozele iirozi, iinyibiba kunye nazo zonke iintlobo zeentyatyambo, ezithi zonke zivuyisane nam. intliziyo ngevumba elimnandi abasasaza ngalo.

INkosi yethu iyenzela inceba enkulu ukuba ivuze kobu bomi uthando nenguquko yentliziyo yakhe eguqukileyo nethobekileyo. Ngaphambili wamenza ukuba azibone iimpazamo awayezenzile nawayetyekele ekuzenzeni, nangona ezi ziphoso zazincinane kakhulu, yaye zazinjalo, ukuyibeka bhetele, yayiziintsilelo kuphela. Kodwa njengokuba uThixo esazi aze azigocagocile ngokupheleleyo iintliziyo zethu, lo myeni wobuthixo wabona entliziyweni yomfazi wakhe njengemicu yento yendalo, enokufaniswa nonwele, engamkholisiyo umyeni, ngenxa yokuba yayilolunwele. ezibangele iimpazamo ezincinci kwiimeko ezithile. Kwangaxeshanye, uMsindisi wethu othandekayo wabona kuloo ntliziyo uthando olungaka, ukuthobeka okukhulu, umnqweno omkhulu wokukholisa umyeni wakhe, nenzondelelo engaka yokuba enze inguquko, nokuzihlambulula, ukuze angaphezi ukucela olu lubabalo endodeni yakhe. Lo myeni wobuthixo wazifumana ethabathekile yiyo yonke iminqweno emihle yomfazi wakhe. Wayesazi kakuhle ukuba wayengazi ukuba olu nwele lusentliziyweni yakhe, luvela kuthando olugqithileyo oluthe lo myeni kaThixo waluthwala kumfazi wakhe kwaye yayiluthando olugqithileyo olwamnyanzela ukuba athethe naye ngobabalo olukhulu. ekutsaleni le nwele ngokwakhe kwaye enze intliziyo yakhe nyulu kwaye ingabi nabala emehlweni akhe. Lo Msindisi ungcwele wenza olu tyando luhle entliziyweni yakhe, engazi yena. wayengazi ukuba olu nwele lusentliziyweni yakhe, luphuma kuthando olugqithileyo lo myeni kaThixo wayeluthwele emfazini wakhe kwaye yayiluthando olugqithileyo olwamnyanzela ukuba athethe naye ngobabalo olukhulu ngokuzikrazula ezo nwele. wayenza nyulu intliziyo yakhe, engenabala emehlweni akhe. Lo Msindisi ungcwele wenza olu tyando luhle entliziyweni yakhe, engazi yena. wayengazi ukuba olu nwele lusentliziyweni yakhe, luphuma kuthando olugqithileyo lo myeni kaThixo wayeluthwele kumfazi wakhe kwaye yayiluthando olugqithileyo olwamnyanzela ukuba athethe naye ngobabalo olukhulu ngokuzikrazula ezo nwele. wayenza nyulu intliziyo yakhe, engenabala emehlweni akhe. Lo Msindisi ungcwele wenza olu tyando luhle entliziyweni yakhe, engazi yena.

 

Isiphumo esingaqondakaliyo solu babalo lukhulu.

Olu lubabalo lwalulukhulu kakhulu ukuba lungabi nakusebenza. Kolu tyando, ngoko nangoko umfazi weva olo thando lubekwe yiNkosi Yethu ukuze lusulungekise intliziyo yakhe. Kwangelo xesha wakhwaza,

ngokuzithoba okukhulu: Owu myeni wam! Intliziyo yam ilimele ngothando lwakho; ngoku ndingowakho. INkosi yamphendula yathi: “Zinike konke, mtshakazi wam, yaye ndoba ngowakho ngonaphakade.

Eli qabane lingcwele lazifumana ngalomzuzu ngokungathi lilahlekile ngaphakathi kwalo, lingazi nokuba liyintoni na, lizibona liguqulelwe ekubeni nguThixo yedwa. Yiloo nto eyabangela ukuba adanduluke ngovuyo nangovuyo: NguThixo yedwa! NguThixo yedwa! Ndandidla ngokuthi: Thixo nam! kodwa ngoku ndibona uThixo yedwa, kwaye ndilahlekelwe kum, andisakwazi ukuthetha enye into: NguThixo yedwa kuzo zonke izenzo zam: NguThixo yedwa ebomini bam: NguThixo yedwa ekufeni kwam, kwaye nguThixo yedwa.ngonaphakade. Lo ngumvuzo uThixo awunika umfazi wakhe kobu bomi, yaye lo ngumphumo oveliswa kukusebenza kwakhe entliziyweni yomfazi wakhe. Xa iNkosi yethu yazibona zihambelana nobabalo lwayo ngokunyaniseka okungaka, lo Mlingane kaThixo wamanga kwakhona ekwangeni kothando lwakhe olungcwele, wathi kuye; “Umhle, sithandwa sam, kwaye uya kuba sisithandwa sentliziyo yam ngonaphakade. »

INkosi yethu yathi kwakhona kuye: “Owu ntombi intle yaseZiyon, hayi indlela ezithandeka ngayo izenzo zakho kum! ntombi yenkosi, hayi indlela endikholiseka ngayo kwimicimbi yakho! Kuya kuba kuwe, mlingane wam, endiya kuthi kuye kamsinya, ekukushenxiseni kwam kule ndawo, ndikubeke ebukumkanini bam, ndithi, Yiza, hobe lam; yiza, zintanda zam! yiza, dade wethu! yiza, mfazi wam! ubusika buphelile, iimvula ziyekile kwiikanton zethu, akusekho zinkungu neeqabaka. Intlakohlaza iqalile, ihobe liye lavakala. Yiza, sithandwa sentliziyo yam, uyonwabele imini entle kanaphakade, apho ilanga lobulungisa lihlala liqaqambile kwaye lingatshoni! »

INkosi yethu iye yandazisa ukuba ibutho elilungileyo apho bonke oonongendi bazaliswa yinzondelelo yosindiso lwabo nozuko lukaThixo, bephilisana ukuze bagcine izibhambathiso zabo nemithetho yabo, nokuze bazingcwalise kunye, kuyamkholisa. ikonsathi yomculo omyoli, ethi, eqhutywa luthando lwakhe, idibane neengoma zezithunywa zezulu, imbeko nozuko olubuyiselwe kuye ezulwini.

 

Uluntu olutsha, lumbalwa ngenani, nto leyo iNkosi yethu ithembisa iBandla layo.

INkosi yethu yathi kum: “Umdiliya wam, osenkangala, uzitshabalalisile; kodwa ndithe ndakumbonisa yonke ichengele, ingengabotshwanga, yonke  yaphukile, inyathelwe, wabona na ukuba ndiya kuzala umntwana  ?

umdiliya, owawuza kuqhotyoshelwa, utyalwe emazantsi eendonga, endiya kuyalela abalimi ukuba bazinyamekele? ndiya kubanika umoya wam, oya kuthwala isiqhamo kubo. Kodwa njengoko uluntu oluya kukhululeka luya kuba mbalwa kakhulu, njengoko bendinibonisile,  abalimi bemidiliya baya kulima imidiliya apha naphaya, kwaye kude kakhulu omnye komnye. Uninzi luya kuhlala kude kube kulawulo lomchasi-Kristu. Abo uMchasi-Kristu abafumana phantsi kwamandla akhe baya kubulawa ngoko nangoko, kwaye lonke uluntu lwaso nasiphi na isini luya kutyunyuzwa lugqitywe.  »

 

§.  III.

Kuonongendi abaphila ubomi obudikidiki nobungafezekanga. Iimbangela kunye nesohlwayo sokuba dikidiki kwabo.

 

 

INkosi yethu yazisa kuDade ubomi obudikidiki boonongendi abangafezekanga.

INkosi yethu yathi kum: “Ndikubonise oonongendi ababekhohlakele ngokupheleleyo, ndaza ke ndakubonisa oonongendi ababethanda ukukholisa. 16 ethe rhoqo ukuya kwingqibelelo, ekukho phakathi kwabo abo bathi, ngoncedo lobabalo lwam, bafezeke. Kodwa ke nantsi eminye engalunganga njengaleyo ndakubonisa yona, okanye abalungileyo njengabo bangabafazi bam bokwenene. Sebenza ekugqibeleleni kwabo. Bangoonongendi abangafezekanga abathe bawohloka kumoya wamandulo wooyise, nabaye bawela kancinane kancinane kwindlela yokuziphatha ebangele ukuba baphulukane nomoya wobume babo. Kukho uluntu apho uninzi loonongendi bawela khona, malunga nomba wosindiso lwabo, betyhafa, bedikidiki, bengamagwala, ngamafutshane, kuko konke ukungakhathali okukhapha ubomi obudikidiki nobuthambileyo elunqulweni.  »

 

Oonobangela bobu budikidiki. Iziqhoboshelo zentliziyo, umona, ukuzithemba.

Ndaba nobuganga bokubuza iNkosi Yethu: Kutheni, Nkosi, aba nongendi bangamahlwempu bewela kwimeko elusizi ngolu hlobo? Yandiphendula yathi: “Asikolubabalo lwam ukuba kubalelwa kuye. Ndibanike ubabalo phezu kobabalo, ngakumbi ngexesha lokurhoxa nobufundisi, apho ndibavulele ngakumbi amehlo omphefumlo. Ndababonisa ezabo

iziphoso, kwaye ngaphezu kwazo zonke ezo zithixo zincinane bazithwele ezinzulwini zeentliziyo zabo. Ndabazisa ukuba kulapho zonke iziphoso zabo nemeko embi yemiphefumlo yabo zavela khona. Ubabalo lwam lwabachukumisa, lwalimaza utyekelo lwabo, kwaye lwenza umzamo wokungena ezintliziyweni zabo. Kodwa konke oko kwangamampunge, bakhetha ukuthobela izithixo zabo kunokuba bathobele ubabalo lwam. »

 

 

(251-255)

 

 

Nantsi into endiyazise ngayo uYehova ngokuphathelele ezi zithixo. Kwabanye, kuya kuba bubuhlobo kunye nokunamathela kwi-nun ethile yoluntu, okanye kumntu othile wehlabathi, apho umntu angafuni ukuhlukana naye; kwabanye, iya kuba likhwele elifihlakeleyo okanye umona komnye woodade wabo obekwe phezu kwabo, nabambona ebekekile kwaye ebekeke ngakumbi kunabo. Lo omnye uya kuba nesidima esincinci kunye nothando oluthile lwakhe, kuba uzibona eofisini, kwaye uhloniphekile njengomoya, kwaye unamandla ngokwaneleyo ukugcwalisa indawo yakhe.

 

Umzekelo we-novice owenza umsebenzi wakhe unamathele kwihlabathi. Ubomi bakhe obungafezekanga, kunye nobugwenxa bokuvuma kwakhe.

Owu! ndithini na? Kukho ikhulu leentlobo zezinto anokuqhathwa usathana. Ngokomzekelo, umntu osaqalayo nonolwazi oluncinane ngemeko anqwenela ukuyamkela, ushumayela ngalo moya uqalekisiweyo wehlabathi, ongekafuthaniselwanga okanye ungekafi entliziyweni yakhe. Bububi obu; kwaye le nto kufuneka ilumke kakhulu oonongendi, ngakumbi iinkosikazi, ekufuneka zizazi kakuhle iintshatsheli zabo kwaye zibafundise kakuhle. Banokuba nethemba lokufumana isifundo esihle njani kumntu osenomoya wehlabathi entliziyweni yakhe? ngenxa yobuhlobo kunye nolwalamano olusenalo lo mfana ehlabathini lungqina ukuba usenawo umoya walo.

Kodwa, uya kundixelela, lo mtsha ulungileyo unobuthixo obukhulu; usondela kwimithendeleko, wenze uvumo lwezono jikelele. Kuyakholelwa ukuba wazivuma zonke izono zakhe, ngakumbi zonke ezichaphazela ihlabathi. Mhlawumbi ewe; kodwa uye wasivuma isithixo solonwabo kunye nobuhlobo behlabathi nto leyo yonke le nto isasivumela ukuba siphile

intliziyo yakhe? Wavuma! kwaye yiloo nto emfaka eluxolweni lobuxoki! Uya kuba sele ebhengeze ukuba kangaphi esiya ebholeni okanye kwiintlanganiso zasebusuku; uya kuba sele eyibalile yonke into eyenzeka kuye ngeso sihlandlo, kwaye ucinga ukuba ugqibile ngayo. Umntu ovumayo ombona ezityhola ngolo hlobo akanakukholelwa ukuba usalugcinile ulonwabo entliziyweni yakhe kunye nokunamathela kwiindlela zehlabathi.

Uyawenza umsebenzi wakhe, kwaye emva komsebenzi wakhe, endaweni yokuzama ukusithintela esi sithixo, uthabatha ulonwabo lwakhe kunye nokwaneliseka kwesango. Ngoko, kwezovumo zovumo, uyazityhola ngokuba uchithe ixesha elininzi esangweni, ngokuthetha ixesha elide apho nabantu behlabathi, nangezinto zehlabathi; kodwa ulumkile ukuba angazibeki tyala ngokunamathela kwiziyolo zehlabathi ezisentliziyweni yakhe, ngolwaneliseko alufumanayo xa ecinga ngazo nokuthetha ngazo, nokwenza kwaziwe ukuba kuvela koku. ulonwabo oluza uthando lwakhe lwegridi kunye nokuthetha nabantu behlabathi.

Andiyithethi into endiyibonayo kuThixo ngokusingisele kwizovumo kunye nemithendeleko yaba nongendi. Andinabuganga bakuthetha oko ndikubona kuThixo, yaye uThixo uya kundixolela ekwenzeni oko. Kodwa bayafana nabo bonke abanye abantu, abathi, njengabo, basifihle isithixo sabo esincinane, bazenze bahanahanisi ekuzivuzeni kwabo izivumo zabo, bechasa isazela sabo, ngokuchasa ukuthembeka komntu obabalweyo.

 

Isohlwayo sokuba dikidiki. Ubumfama bengqondo kunye nobulukhuni bentliziyo.

UThixo uqhele, ngokuqhelekileyo, ukohlwaya abantu abanjalo ngokobukhulu nomgangatho wezono zabo. Bawela kubumfama obuthile bomoya, ngokukodwa ngaphakathi kwizazela zabo, ngokuphathelele oko bakutyalayo kuThixo. Ukukhanya kokholo kuyamfiliba, iintliziyo zabo ziphantse zibe lukhuni njengelitye. Bazishiya ngokungakhathali nokuba dikidiki, ukuze bagcine izibhambathiso zabo nemithetho yabo njengesiqhelo kuphela. Kuyafana nokuvuma izono kunye nomthendeleko. Ekugqibeleni, kuzo zonke iimbopheleleko zabo baqhelisela umphandle kuphela, oko kukuthi, ixolo; kodwa ngenxa yomongo wezibhambathiso zabo nemithetho yabo, abazi nto kwaphela ngabo, ngesizathu sokuba bona

 

Umntu unokuphuma kuphela kwimeko elusizi ngolo hlobo ngobabalo olungathethekiyo ekungekho bani kufuneka athembise lona.

Babeya kuchitha ubomi babo bonke bekule meko ingonwabanga, ukuba uThixo, ngokulunga kwakhe okunyulu, akazange abanike ubabalo olungaqhelekanga nolunamandla olubaphakamisayo lubakhuphe kubumfama babo. Kodwa abo bakwimeko emanyumnyezi ngolo hlobo mabangazibaleli ezi nceba zingaqhelekanga, kuba uThixo akaziniki bani; yaye ukuba uyasipha maxa wambi, unikela kuphela kwabo abathandayo.

 

§. IV.

Kuburhalarhume nobungqwabalala ngakumahlwempu, nokugwetywa ngakumbi kumadoda nabafazi benkolo kunabantu behlabathi. Iintshutshiso ezithwaxa umntu wonqulo othembekileyo kwizibhambathiso zakhe, ekuhlaleni eziwaphulayo. Indlela uThixo afuna ngayo uluntu luguqulwe.

 

 

Ingqumbo kaThixo phezu kwabaxhwalekileyo.

Nantsi into endinyanzela ngayo uThixo ukuba ndiyibhale. Ndimbonile uYehova ngomsindo wakhe, nangobulungisa bakhe, ethetha ngomlomo wakhe ongcwele, nangendudumo, izigwebo zomgwebo phezu kwabangendawo, ababingelela into yonke, ukuba baqwebele ubutyebi behlabathi, nobutyebi nobutyebi  ;

 

 

(256-260)

 

 

bengacingeli abasezulwini, abantliziyo zilambileyo njengezabalambileyo, bangahluthiyo. Ngaba iingxowa zabo kunye nezifuba zabo zizele yigolide nesilivere, na imihlaba yabo ikhulile kakhulu, basalamba ngakumbi kunanini ngaphambili. Inkanuko, inkanuko yobudemon, ihlala ifudumeza iintliziyo zabo: okukhona benezinto ezininzi, kokukhona befuna ukuba nako. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba la mashwa acuthene njengamahlwempu angoongantweni ukuze azityebise.

 

Iinkxwaleko neenkxwaleko zamahlwempu.

Ngoxa ihlwempu libufihle esifubeni somhlaba ubutyebi balo obuninzi obo bubudlayo bubudle bubole, uThixo uyambona kwelinye icala umhlolokazi nenkedama bencwina yaye bekhala ngenxa yokuvinjwa izinto eziyimfuneko ebomini. Ubabona bebandezelekile kwaye bebandezeleka kakhulu kangangokuba badonsa ubomi obufayo othi emva kweenyanga ezininzi, okanye ukuba uthanda iminyaka eliqela yokunqongophala, ubakhokelela ekufeni ngokungenakubonwa.

 

Ukufa kwabo kwangaphambi kwexesha okubangelwa bubungqwabalala bezityebi, kutsala impindezelo yobuthixo.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba aba bantu bangamahlwempu bafa ngequbuliso, yaye ngokungathi bafa ngequbuliso, yindlala nosizi, nto leyo engafane ibonakale emehlweni ehlabathi. Kodwa uThixo ongena kuyo yonke into, obandezeleka yonke into, ubona ngokucacileyo ukuba izizathu zesibini, eziyimfuneko kubomi bendalo, ziye zasilela ukugcina abantu abaninzi abahluphekileyo, kunye nakwabaninzi abahlwempuzekileyo abamsulwa abasekho ebuntwaneni, kwaye kunokuba bazive befuna ukusela nokutya kunokuba bakhulelwe ukuba bazalwe. Ubona umama osentlungwini edibanisa iinyembezi zakhe nezomntwana wakhe. Zinyembezi zomntwana nonina! uyenyuka, unyukela etroneni kaThixo, ukuze wehlise kuyo imibane neendudumo aya kuthi uThixo azikhuphe phezu kwentloko yabangendawo, nakwiintliziyo ezilukhuni ngakumahlwempu abanokuwanceda.

Ndisabona kuThixo ukuba aba bancinci bamsulwa, kunye nabantwana abaninzi abahluphekayo, babandezeleka kwasebuntwaneni babo ngokuvinjwa ukutya  okuyimfuneko ebomini, kwaye oku kuswela, emva kokubandezeleka okungaka, kubakhokelela ekufeni okuninzi. . Ngamanye amaxesha nangona kwenzeka ukuba babe nezinto eziyimfuneko, njengoko imibhobho yendalo iyancipha, kwaye isisu sibuthathaka, kwenzeka ukuba, njengoko umphumo wokutya ukuvelisa ngaphakathi nangaphandle kwe-faculty kunye namandla endalo okukhula kunye nokufumana amandla. , xa befikelela kwiminyaka yobudala bendoda eyomeleleyo neyomeleleyo bayatshabalala.

Lo Thixo wokulunga uyilinganiseleyo imihla yethu neminyaka yethu, nothe walimisela ilixa lokufa kwethu, ukulungele ukuvumela oonobangela besibini endisandul’ ukuthetha ngabo ukuba benze okuthile kumahlwempu; nokuthintela amandla endalo, ehlala ebandezelekile, ukuba abuye afumane amandla aphezulu; ukuze umkhuhlane omncinane, okanye isigulo esingephi, sibangele ukuba banciphe imihla ngemihla, kwaye banqumle umsonto wabo wobomi kwintyantyambo yobudala babo. Oku kwenzeka ngaphandle kokuba kubonakale emehlweni ehlabathi ukuba ukunqongophala ngunobangela wokufa kwabo. Baya kuthi: Ngumkhuhlane,

yayisisigulo esabangela ukuba le ndoda isweleyo ife. Kodwa ngelishwa ! Hayi indlela eyahluke ngayo imigwebo kaThixo kweyabantu! Ndibona kuThixo ukuba uya kubagweba, nokuba uya kubagweba, ukuba abaguqukanga, njengababulali nababulali bamahlwempu angamalungu akhe. Kodwa iindudumo zakhe ziya kuwela ngakumbi kwabo bakhohlakeleyo naphezu kwabantu abazizityebi ababenamandla okubanceda, nabangazange bawukhulule umsebenzi wothando awawumisela kakhulu uThixo kumahlwempu.

Kodwa ngelishwa ! maye! Ndibona kuThixo ukuba, ukuba, ngokungqongqo kobulungisa bakhe, ubaphatha kabukhali abantu behlabathi ngenxa yoburhalarhume babo, ngaba uya kuluphatha kabukhali unqulo olunoburheletyo? Yile nto ndiyibonayo kuThixo, kwaye into ebamba intliziyo yam ngobuhlungu kunye noloyiko, kukuba uburharha bulawula kuyo yonke ingqumbo yayo; kwaye ukuba olu thando luqalekisiweyo lubamba iinkolo ezininzi; ngakumbi abo banempahla yethutyana ezandleni zabo, njengabo bathwaliswe uxanduva lokomoya, kungoko bathi phantsi kwesigqubuthelo sobuhlwempu obungcwele baqokelele, ngengeniso enkulu yezibonelelo zabo kunye neerhafu zabo, bafumba igolide kunye neerhafu. isilivere. Ndithini na? Ngazo zonke iindlela isibhambathiso sobuhlwempu obungcwele siyaphulwa; ubusela, abadlwenguli bayanda mihla le.

 

Ukuba ngqwabalala kwabo kumahlwempu.

Ukuba abasweleyo beza kuncwina emasangweni abo, yeha! izikhalo zabo zibuhlungu kwaye zingumthwalo kubo. Ukuba ummeli ubapha into encinane ngamabona-ndenzile, iya kuba kukugxotha aze abayalele ngobuchule ukuba bangabuyi ngelinye ixesha ukuza kubakhathaza ngakumbi, esongezelela ngelithi nguMphathi onempahla yoluntu. ukuba, kuye, yena kuphela bursar; ukuba ayingobakhe, nokuba ngabahlali, nokuba wenze isifungo sobuhlwempu.

 

UThixo ubasongela ngempindezelo yakhe.

Lunjalo ke ulwimi ukuba lo mntu unoburhalarhume uvakala ezindlebeni zamahlwempu kaJC O ulwimi oluqalekisiweyo! umcaphukisa njani uThixo! kwaye angakanani amashwa owazisayo! Mhanahanisindini, itsho iNkosi yethu, uzigqume ngesigqubuthelo sokulunga ngesibhambathiso sobuhlwempu obungcwele! Úngento yanto ngaphandle kwesela, ungumbulali, umbulali wehlwempu lam; ungumbulali wemiphefumlo ephantsi kwakho. Uzityebise, uludwayi, ngezinto neziyolo zehlabathi

Ulilungelo lakho nothixo wakho kweli hlabathi, xa ulindele imini yomgwebo wakho, endiya kuphosa ngayo imibane yomsindo wam phezu kwakho, nakwizenzo zakho, kude kuse ephakadeni.

Kwakhona ndibona kuThixo ukuba uluntu luphangiwe kwaye lonakaliswe ngokuphulwa kwemithetho engcwele kunye nazo zonke izibhambathiso, kwaye kwanelo bandla lonke elizinikele kumtyholi ngale nkanuko yoburhele, nakuzo zonke iinkanuko ethe wamfamekiswa yena, yaba yeyamanyumnyezi emehlweni kaYehova, ngokokude baguqukele ekulungeni kwakhe, bamfungele ukuba abe nomonde, ukuze angabasi nomlilo ophuma ezulwini, ubatsibele enzonzobileni. esihogweni ngaphambi kwexesha.

 

Kwiindawo ezingendawo kukho abantu bonqulo abalungileyo abalixhathisayo ihlazo.

Kolu luntu lucekisekayo kusoloko kukho ubugebenga bezenkolo kwaye bunetyala ngakumbi emehlweni kaThixo kunabanye. Kuba, ngokomzekelo, kuloo maqela angendawo kuya kubakho ukuhlangana kwamakholwa athile, ngokweminqweno yeedemon, abacamagushelo kwangolo hlobo; baya kufuna ukumanyanisa nabo bonke inkolo yoluntu, kwaye ngobuqhetseba bedemon baya kuphumelela kakuhle kakhulu. Kodwa uThixo uvumele ukuba kubekho abathile abanikela umva kubo, nabangafuni ukulandela ingqiqo yabo engafanelekanga.

Kwenzeka ntoni ukusuka apho? Ndibona kuThixo ukuba inkolo elungileyo iya kuma yodwa phakathi kokonakala kwabanye. Uphakamileyo onekratshi, okhukhumele likratshi likaLusifa, uya kumyalela, ngokuchasene nomthetho kaThixo okanye ngokuchasene neminqweno yakhe, ukuba enze okanye angazenzi izinto ezinje nezinje; lo ungcwele wonqulo, ezaliswe ngumoya kaThixo nemo yakhe, uyichasa ngamandla akhe onke loo miyalelo, engawoyiki onke amahlazo amsongelayo.

 

Iintshutshiso ezehlela icawa ethembekileyo. Ukusetyenziswa kakubi kwentobelo emfamekileyo.

Olu nqulo lulungileyo alusagqalwa njengento nje enye ngaphandle kokuba ngumwexuki kwisifungo sokuthobela; kuba kuyimfuneko, njengoko batshoyo kwiindawo ezingendawo.

ukuthobela ngobumfama, ngaphandle kokuqwalasela ukuba kukho isono okanye akunjalo. Ndingathetha apha into endiyibone kuThixo ngale nto yokuthobela okumfamekileyo. Kuluntu olubi endithethe ngalo, abezenkolo, ukuze bamanyane ngcono, bazingise kwaye basebenzise intobeko enkulu, abayibiza ngokuba kukuthobela okumfamekileyo kwabo baphezulu. Kukule nto kuphela abathi benza ukuba bonke abo bazenza ngathi babe ngcwele; yiyo loo nto bebethelela ezingqondweni zabafundi babo nezabo| novices esi sidima uhanahaniso leyo counterfeits ukuthobela lokwenyaniso kunye engcwele JC emnqamlezweni. Kodwa ndibona kuThixo ukuba eli qhinga likhohlakeleyo liya kufunyanwa ngomhla womgwebo, kwaye ke kuya kwaziwa ukuba oku kuthobela imfama yobuxoki akuyi kuphinda kubonwe.

 

Abasaqalayo abasebatsha abanengqondo emxinwa abazivumela ukuba balukuhlwe kukusetyenziswa kobuxoki koko kufanele kuphela isidima sokwenene.

Phakathi kwabantu abaselula abazinikela ukuba bangene elunqulweni, kukho iingqondo ezithile ezincinci ezinengqondo ephangaleleyo ezivumela ukuba zithabatheke ngokwaneliseka yile ntobelo yimfama, kuba kusithiwa: Akuzange kuthotyelwe ukuthobela; Ukuba ufuna ukuba ngcwele, bathobele ngokungafihlisiyo kubaphathi bakho, kuba bayayazi yonke into efunekayo ukuze ube ngcwele kwaye ugqibelele.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba kukho abantu abasikelwe umda, abaxhomekeke kuphela ekulandeleni umzekelo wowongamileyo, ukumncoma kuzo zonke izenzo zakhe, nokumthobela ngokumfamekileyo. Umtyholi wongeza kuyo inkohliso ethile ethi ithobe kwaye ithobe izazela zabo, ngokubenza bawuve lo moya ungendawo! ukuba eyona nto ibalulekileyo kwiimbopheleleko zabo kukuthobela iimfama kuyo yonke into. Ekugqibeleni, bawuyeka umsinga nekhondo eliqhelekileyo leli butho lingendawo; bathobela ngexesha elimisiweyo nangexesha elimisiweyo, imini nobusuku, ukuya emidlalweni, emingqungqo, emithendelekweni, nakwiimbutho zokuzonwabisa zehlabathi, emakhayeni nasehlabathini; imiyalelo engcwele, ngokuchasene nezibhambathiso zabo nemigaqo-siseko yabo;

 

Isiphumo sobu bubi: ukuphulukana nokholo kunye nokulibala eyona misebenzi ibalulekileyo.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba ngakumbi aba baselula benkolo endisandul’ ukuthetha ngabo, balahlekelwa kakhulu ngumoya wokholo lwenkolo yamaKatolika, baze bamlibale uThixo neCawa Engcwele kakhulu, kangangokuba babeke ecaleni zonke ezona mbopheleleko zabo zibalulekileyo. ukuba bacinga ukuba, ukuba bayathobela, ngaphandle

baphonononge ukuba kukho ububi okanye hayi, baya kuba ngabangcwele, kwaye le nkolo incinci yenzelwe bona bonke, ukuze baye ezulwini. Le yinkohliso ekrwada kakhulu.

Kodwa, uya kuthi kum, akukho na abongameli abakhulu bokulungisa ukuxhatshazwa okungaka? Yeha! Yeha! Ndibona kuThixo ukuba aba baphathi baphezulu banyulwe ngabaphathi balo maqela angendawo, kungekhona ngomoya kaThixo, kodwa ngomoya womntu, ukuze bakhonze ukukholisa iinkanuko zabo.

 

Ukuziphatha kwabaphathi abakhulu kutyelelo lwabo.

Kwakhona ndibona kuThixo indlela aba baphathi baphambili abatyelela ngayo, kunye nendlela abalungisa ngayo ukuxhatshazwa kolu luntu lubi. Ekufikeni kwabo, kuqhwatywa izandla nemincili kuphela kwicala lephondo  kunye nabancedisi balo, malunga  noku.

ophakamileyo nakubo bonke abantu abanqulayo ekuhlaleni, obongamileyo bakhe akasileli ukuvakalisa indumiso nokuzithoba kuyo yonke imiyalelo yakhe. Ugxininisa ngokukhethekileyo ekudunyisweni kwaba baselula bonqulo, awabakhulisayo waza wababophelela kwidyokhwe yentobelo, yaye unika ithemba lokuba ngenye imini baya kuba ngabalawulwa abakhulu.

Kodwa nali icala elahlukileyo: Ukuba kukho umntu okanye ababini abawuthobelayo lo mgaqo baze bangavumi ukuthobela ophakamileyo kuko konke abakwaziyo ukuba kuchasene noThixo nomgaqo, kunxamnye naba bavakalisa ulongamo nolunye unqulo. loluntu. Ezinjani zona iintetho ezikhohlakeleyo! bangoomoya abaneenkani okanye abanemvukelo, abatyeshela izibhambathiso zabo, nabanonqulo olwahlukileyo. Bendingasoze ndigqibe, ukuba bendithe yonke into ayiqanjwa ngusathana yokugcwalisa iindlebe kunye neentloko zabaphathi abakhulu abaphulaphula zonke ezi ngxelo benomsindo ngokuchasene nezi zifundo zihluphekayo nezilungileyo. Lonke ixhala labo kukwazi ukuba yeyiphi isohlwayo okanye zeziphi izohlwayo eziya kulinganiswa ngokwaneleyo kulwaphulo-mthetho lwaba mashwa; kwaye xa kukho inkolo enye kuphela elungileyo, njengoko benditshilo ngasentla, ezininzi.

 

Iicawa ezithembekileyo zazigxeka zaza zohlwaya.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba aba bongamileyo bayalela ukuba olu nqulo luziswe phambi kwabo. Hayi indlela ekubuhlungu ngayo ukumelwa endikubona kuThixo  kweli xhoba lilusizi!... Kodwa, maye! ndithini  !  . Owu ixhoba elonwabileyo!  Owu

ixhoba lethamsanqa! undimele kulo mlo we-JC obekwe phambi koKayafas, uPilato noHerode. Ndibona eli xhoba liguqe ngamadolo, ubuso bujonge emhlabeni, ngokungathi libalelwa kuzo zonke izikreqo zebandla, lizigwebe phambi koThixo. Ucela uxolo kuThixo, kubaphathi bakhe, nakuluntu lonke, ngenxa yazo zonke iziphoso nazo zonke iintlungu ezibangele kubo; ufumana ngomonde kwaye angenise izithuko kunye nezithuko eziphuma emilonyeni evuthayo yabaphathi bakhe. Eli xhoba limsulwa, lilandela umzekelo weNkosi yethu, aliphenduli nto kwaye lithe cwaka ngokunzulu: Uvakalelwa kukuba zonke izizathu zakhe aziyi kuba lilize, nokuba kuzuko lukaThixo, okanye usindiso lwemiphefumlo yabo, okanye ingqiqo yakhe. Yiyo loo nto ethule, yaye uzithoba kwangaphambili kuzo zonke izohlwayo nezohlwayo ezahlukahlukeneyo eziya kubekwa phezu kwakhe. Senza ngabom, ngaphambi kokuba sishiye isahluko, malunga nesohlwayo ekufuneka sibekwe kulo mvukeli, kulo mwexuki. Bonke abantu abaphakamileyo bacinga ngokufanayo, kwaye bathi kuyimfuneko ukumbuza, nokumbuza ukuba ufuna ukuthotyelwa ngokungaboniyo, oko kuthetha konke oko kufunwa ngumphathi wakhe. Ukuba lo mvukeli ufuna ukuthobela ngokugqibeleleyo, isohlwayo sakhe siya kuba lula yaye sibe sesokwexeshana; kodwa ukuba ufuna ukuzingisa kwimvukelo yakhe, isohlwayo sakhe simele sibe lonke ixesha lobomi bakhe. Emva koko siyabuza le monki ilungileyo, eqinile njenge-anvil: okukhona simbetha, kokukhona esiba nzima nangakumbi ukufumana izithonga, ngaphandle kokubuya nanye. Siyamcela lo monki, simthatha ngokungqongqo, bambonisa isohlwayo esiqatha esiya kwenziwa kuye, ukuba akafuni kuziguqula iimvakalelo zakhe. Umntu udibanisa namagama amuncu amanye amagama amnandi kunye nenceba; simnika ukuqonda ukuba siya kusebenzisa ukuziyekelela kuye. Le monki ilungileyo, iqine njengelitye, ikhalazela ukuba iya kuthobela uJ. iminqweno.

Emva koko kuphakama isikhalo somsindo esiphuma kubaphathi nabezenkolo ngokuchasene neli xhoba, bezibona boyiswa ziimpendulo zeli qhawe leNkosi; kwaye beziva isazela sibagxeka ngenxa yezenzo zabo zolwaphulo-mthetho, bathi kubaphathi abakhulu: Susa phambi kwamehlo ethu le nto idume kakubi kwaye ingafanelanga ukubonakala phakathi kwethu ekuhlaleni. Ke la baphathi bamandla akhohlakeleyo, afana nookumkani, iinkosi, nabagwebi abaphantsi kwabo, baya kummangalela lowo umsulwa.

ummiselo ogwebayo ukuba agwetywe izihlandlo eziliqela ngabahlali, entolongweni engunaphakade, maxa wambi aphoswe emhadini ophantsi okanye kumgodi omnyama, aze ancitshiswe ekubeni, kukho konke ukutya, anikwe nje into enkulu enkulu. isonka esimnyama ezingasidliyo izinja zabo, namanzi okusela kwakhe. Lo ungcwele uguqukayo ebeya kuvuya ukuba unokwaneleyo.

Abaphathi basekuhlaleni bayoyisa baze bathululele iintsikelelo kuBaphathi babo abakhulu, bebaxelela ukuba bakufanele ukulawula, bayayazi kakuhle indlela yokulungisa ububi nokuxhasa isidima, nokuba baye babahlangula kumthwalo owoyikekayo owawunganyamezeleki  . bona. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba lo mkhonzi ulungileyo uyonwabela ukuhlala yedwa noThixo aze agwetyelwe ukufa, kunokuba adlule yonke imihla yakhe phakathi kwezi  ngcuka ziqwengayo.

 

UThixo ubonakalisa kuDade intando yakhe ngohlaziyo loluntu.

Nantsi into endiyibonileyo kuThixo, endiyibophelele ngokupheleleyo kuThixo ukuba ndiyibhale. Kuyintando kaThixo ukuba onke amadoda nabafazi benkolo bangabi phantsi korhulumente okanye phantsi kolawulo lwamaphondo, abachazi kunye nabaphathi abakhulu benkolo yomyalelo wabo,

 

 

(271-275)

 

 

ngenxa yeziphazamiso ezivela kuyo, nezisenokuthi zivele. Ukuthanda kukaThixo kukuba babe phantsi korhulumente, ulawulo noqeqesho lukabhishophu wedayosisi apho iimonki zabo zikhoyo. Kwiminyaka eliqela eyadlulayo iNkosi yandazisa oku: Andizange ndibe nabuganga bokukubhala kodwa ngoku kwakufuneka ndizithobe ekuthandeni kukaThixo ndize ndimthobele.

 

§. v.

Isibhambathiso sobuhlwempu asikwahluli umntu wonqulo ekuncedeni amahlwempu. Kwezinye iimeko

kufuneka benjenjalo. Eminye imithetho esebenzayo yokugcina esi sibhambathiso ngokugqibeleleyo.

 

Udade uyathandabuza ukunceda umfazi ohluphekileyo, ngenxa yesifungo sakhe sobuhlwempu. Isifundo awasinikwa yiNkosi yethu ngalo mbandela.

Nantsi into eyenzekayo kum mva nje. Umfazi olihlwempu, owachatshazelwa yiminqamlezo eliqela emikhulu, awayengathi wonganyelwe yiyo, wayibalisa kum, nto leyo yabangela iinyembezi emehlweni am, yahlaba intliziyo yam ngeentlungu. Ngayo yonke le minqamlezo, wayesafuna isonka, eswele nempahla yakhe nabantwana bakhe. Andikwazanga ukumncedisa ngokomnqweno wentliziyo yam, kuba ndandingenayo imvume yoMphathi wam. Kwiiyure ezimbalwa emva koko, ndazibona ndindedwa, ndandicinga entliziyweni yam ukuba ndinganikela ngantoni ukuze ndikhulule eli bhinqa lihlwempu. Ndathi kum ngaphakathi: Ndineedola ezimbini okanye ezintathu zeseyile endifuna ukumnika zona; kodwa uMkhulu wam akavumi. Ndithe ndisaziqengqa ezi ngcinga engqondweni yam, ndeva ilizwi entla kwentloko yam, njengokuphuma kweNkosi yethu, yathi kum: “Ukuba ayifuni, mxelele ukuba iNkosi iyayifuna ukugquma amalungu ayo ahamba ze. »

Ndothuswe kwaye ndikhwankqisiwe ngala mazwi achukumisayo, ndaqalisa ukuphakamisa intloko ndajonga apho ilizwi livela khona. Khange ndiqaphele ukuba kukho umzobo ongentla kwentloko yam elivela kulo eli lizwi kum. Yayimele iNkosi Yethu ebethelelwe emnqamlezweni, nababulali ababesebenza ukuwuphakamisa umnqamlezo uthe tye ukuwubeka emngxunyeni ababewenzile, nokuwukhusela. Ndaqalisa ukucamngca ndaza ndawamilisela amehlo am kumfanekiso woMsindisi Wethu obethelelwe emnqamlezweni; yabona, ngelo xesha iNkosi Yethu yathetha nam okwesibini. Ndabona, ndeva ukuba eli lizwi laliphuma kumzobo kaYesu ebethelelwe emnqamlezweni; nanga amazwi ebewathetha kum ndisamjongile: ndabethelelwa emthini womnqamlezo ze; Abo, ngenxa yokundithanda, baya kugquma kwaye bambathise amalungu e-ze ehlwempuzekileyo, baya kundinika ulonwabo ngakumbi kunokuba ngomhla wothando lwam bandenzele uthando lokugubungela ubunqunu bam emnqamlezweni. »

 

Unongendi owenze isibhambathiso sobuhlwempu, kufuneka, ngemvume, abelane, kwiimeko ezithile, into anayo nabampofu.

Nantsi into endiye ndaziswa leli lizwi lobuthixo ngaphakathi kwam, malunga nento endikhathazayo, malunga nokwenza kunye nokugqibelela kwesifungo

ubuhlwempu obungcwele. Kuqala, uThixo wandazisa ukuba ndandinamaqhekeza aliqela elinen nempahla, nokuba wayefuna ukuba, ngemvume yoMphathi wam, ndibelane ngazo kwaye ndizabele amahlwempu; ukuba bendinyanzelekile ukuba ndenze njalo, nokuba ndingathi: Ndilihlwempu nakuthando. Kuba kukho amaxesha apho amahlwempu aphekelana. Thelekisa, INkosi yethu yandenza ndeva, intlupheko yakho kunye nentswelo yakho kunye nela mfazi ulihlwempu. Oku kwandibeka kwisiphithiphithi esikhulu kakhulu ngaphakathi kwam, ndade ndashukunyiswa luloyiko losindiso lwam malunga nesibhambathiso sam sobuhlwempu obungcwele. Yeha! Ndathi mna entliziyweni yam, Ndimelwe kukuthi ndiswele kakhulu, ndenze isibhambathiso, noko ndingasweli nto. Uthando lundinyamekela kwizifo zam kunye nobuthathaka bam, ukuba andiphoswa ngaphezu kwelinye ixesha. Oku kwandenza ndanexhala lesazela.

INkosi yethu yandenza ndaqonda ukuba ayizange icele ukuba amaqabane ayo okwenyaniso, ukuze agcine isifungo sentlupheko engcwele, ancitshiswe ekungqiba njengamahlwempu acela isonka sawo kwindlu ngendlu; ukuba angayivumeli loo nto ukuba yenzeke; nokuba, xa oko kusenzeka, babengayi kufezeka ngakumbi emehlweni akhe. Kodwa enye into engamkholisiyo uThixo kukubona kubafazi bakhe ikomityi ethile esoloko ibenza boyike ukuswela nobuhlwempu kwixesha elizayo, nokubawa okuthile okukhokelela ekubeni bakhalaze ngaphandle kwesizathu; ngokokude kubekho abo bahleli belungele ukwamkela, nangothando, bangaze baphane.

 

Iimeko ezingaqhelekanga apho unongendi enyanzelekile ukuba ancede amahlwempu.

UThixo wandinika ukuqonda ukuba, ngokwesibhambathiso sobuhlwempu, kunye nothando oluyalelayo ngamaxesha akhoyo kunye nemfuneko engxamisekileyo, oonongendi babebophelelekile ukuba banikele izipho ezincinci okanye ezinkulu, njengamanye amaKristu; njengokuba, umzekelo, ngamaxesha endlala okanye indlala. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba ukuze kusindiswe ubomi bomntu, unongendi kufuneka abelane naye ngeqhekeza lakhe lesonka, xa yonke into anayo: makabelane, ukuze alume ngokuluma, ukuze asindise ubomi bomntakwabo; oku akufane kwenzeke.

 

Umphefumlo wenkolo kufuneka ube nentliziyo ekhululekile kuko konke ukunyoluka, kwaye uthembele kwinkathalo ye-Providence.

"Lahlani ezintliziyweni zenu, itsho iNkosi yethu kubafazi bakhe, konke ukunyoluka nako konke

 

 

(276-280)

 

 

inkanuko, nje ukuba uyiqonde. Ningamavolontiya angamahlwempu, nashiya yonke into ukuze nindilandele; ziyeke ngaphandle kokuzigodla kwilungiselelo lam lobuthixo. Ubundikhumbula njani ukukhalaza ngam? umama angakhawuleza amlibale umntwana wakhe embelekweni kunokuba ndikulibale. »

 

Ukuziqhelanisa nobuhlwempu ekutyeni, empahleni nasemandlalweni.

Ndabona eNkosini yethu ukuba ukwenza isibhambathiso sakhe sobuhlwempu kwaye siphile ngokugqibeleleyo, inkolo kufuneka, yonke imihla yobomi bakhe, ibe nomkhuba wokuzikhwebula ngokuzithandela kwinto yokutya kwakhe okuqhelekileyo. Asikuko ukuba uThixo ufuna ukuba sizibeke esichengeni sokugula, kodwa kukuba sihlale kancinane kulangazelelo lwethu lokutya, kwaye sizikhwebule, ukuba bekukukutya nje okuphuma emlonyeni wesonka, okanye into esetafileni. Akufanelekile phambi koThixo ukuba umntu ozibanga ehlwempuzekile abe nokutya nokusela ngokungcathu; oko kukuthi, ukwaneliseka nokwaneliseka ngokobuninzi bendalo  kunye nomnqweno wayo wokutya, njengoko abantu behlabathi besenza. Aba bantu bona ngakumbi

kunabo; ukuba ithe yayinto kwisidlo, nangemihla yonke, bagqitha isibhambathiso sabo sokuswela, abasayi kusenza. Kule ngongoma, unongendi kufuneka abe nombono wokunxiba yonke imihla uphawu oluthile lwentlupheko engcwele kunye nokugatywa okungcwele kwiingubo zakhe, nakwibhedi yakhe, ukuze abe nento emele ubuhlwempu obungcwele, kwaye umkhumbuza ngayo. Kufuneka enze utyelelo, okanye lwenziwe nguMphathi wakhe, ukuqinisekisa ukuba akanxibanga ngendlela eyothusayo intlupheko engcwele, kwaye ahlole kwakhona ukuba akukho nto ingaphezu koko kuyimfuneko, ukuze abe. ndiyakwazi ukwenzela amahlwempu kancinane.

 

Inkuthazo kwimfezeko ebonakalayo yobuhlwempu. Le ngqibelelo iquka ntoni?

Utsho uYehova ukuthi: “Nina ningamahlwempu, nina matsha-ntliziyo; kodwa akwanelanga, ukuze wenze esi sibhambathiso, kwaye ube sendleleni eya kwimfezeko, uhlwempuzekile kuphela kwintando: intando kufuneka isebenze. Ngoko ke kuyimfuneko ukuba oku kuya kusenza sibeke izandla zethu emsebenzini kwaye senze izenzo zobuhlwempu obungcwele. Amanye amahlwempu ngenene, kwaye angamahlwempu ngenxa yesidingo esipheleleyo, kwaye amaxesha amaninzi ngokuchasene nentando yawo; kodwa kuni, bangamatsha-ntliziyo angamahlwempu, anisayi kuba lihlwempu elilungileyo, ningafezekanga emehlweni am, ukuba ukuthanda kwakho akwenzeki ngothando lwam phantse ngamaxesha onke. Ukuba le ntando ayenzi, nangona igcwele iminqweno emihle enokusikhohlisa ngokulula, izenzo zobuhlwempu obungcwele ziwa ngokukhawuleza.  »

Nantsi i-prirogative, okanye kunoko ibhanile ye-JC ebethelelwe emnqamlezweni kunye nobuhlwempu bakhe obungcwele. Iqulethwe ekuthwaleni yonke imihla yobomi bomntu umnqamlezo wezohlwayo wentlupheko engcwele kunye nokuhlanjululwa kweemvakalelo zangaphakathi kunye nezangaphandle kwi-abjection engcwele, indelelo kunye nokutshatyalaliswa kwakhe, ekuboneni uJC ebethelelwe emnqamlezweni. Nguwo lo umlinganiselo esifanele siwulandele; le yindlela eya kwimfezeko yokwenene yazo zonke izidima.

 

Unongendi afanele ayisebenzise njani imali ayinikwayo ukuze aziphilise.

Nantsi ke into endandazisa yona uThixo. Xa uluntu kunye noPhakamileyo bebeke ezandleni zonongendi imali yokuziphilisa kunye nesondlo, lo nongendi kufuneka, ukuze abe kwingqibelelo yesibhambathiso sakhe sentlupheko, achithe kwaye asebenzise le mali ngokweziphelo zayo. wanikwa yena. Logama nje enemali yokuziphilisa, akafanelanga ukuba afumane amalizo, kuba akukho mfuneko yokwenene yokuwamkela, yaye kungenxa yokwenene kuphela. Ukuze sibe kwingqibelelo yesibhambathiso sobuhlwempu, kufuneka kubekho imfuneko ekhoyo yokukwazi ukufumana, ngenxa yothando lukaThixo, isisa esisinikwe thina. Ukuba uthe wanezithsaba ezilishumi kuphela, wazibeka elugcinweni ngomoya wokubawa, endathetha ngawo; nangenxa yokoyika iintswelo ezizayo; ukuba emva kokuba uphila ngeendleko zothando lwemiphefumlo elungileyo, kwaye wamkela zonke izipho ezinikwe kuwe, uzenza umnikazi ngokuchasene nesibhambathiso sobuhlwempu, kwaye wenze isono esinzulu ngaphandle kokuqaphela. Ukuba sisixa esikhulu semali, kufuneka kuqala

ukuchitha kwiimfuno zakho kunye neemfuno, ngaphambi kokufumana amalizo. Ukuba yimadlana encinane enganelanga ukukondla isiqingatha sonyaka, kufuneka udibanise le mali incinci kunye nezipho ozifumanayo, kwaye uyisebenzise ukuze ungamkhubekisi uThixo. Ngokomzekelo, oonongendi abafumana imali yabo, mhlawumbi ngomsebenzi wabo, okanye ngenzululwazi okanye ngeziphiwo zabo, banenzuzo enkulu. Ke mna ndiyabona ke kuThixo, ukuba kuya kuba kugqibelele bona kubo, ukuba bathi, benemali encinane, nokuba ininzi, bayixube nento abayinikiweyo, ukuba badle ubomi ngoku, bathi, benemali encinane, nokuba ininzi, bayixube noko bakunikwayo ukuba badle, ukuze bangabi nagunya kubo. . Ngamaxesha eemfuno ezicacileyo, xa zonke iintsapho zamahlwempu ziswele kakhulu, kufuneka zithabathe ukufikelela kule mali ebekelwe bucala, ngaphandle koloyiko lokuyicutha, ukunceda amahlwempu. Ukuba abakwenzi oko, kwaye bona

gcina imali kwidiphozithi iminyaka eliqela, baba ngabanini bale mali.

 

Ityala uDade avuma ukuba uyenzile ngokuchasene nentlupheko.

Nali ke ityala endilenzileyo, awandazisa lona uThixo. Ndingakwazi ukuziphilisa ngenxa yeminyaka yam nobulwelwe bam, abantu abangcwele bandinika, ngaphandle kwesisa, ikhulu leeponti ngonyaka, ukuze ndincedise ukundondla ngenxa yabantu endihlala nabo. Ndandinekhulu elinamashumi amahlanu anesithathu eeponti endandizinikwe nguMphathi wam ukuze ndiphile: Le mali ndandiyigcina njengediphozithi, ndingabazi abantu ababendondla ngenceba. Umphathi wam olungileyo wathi kum ngenye imini: Dadewethu, ndifuna ukuba uthathe imali oyibekileyo, amashumi amahlanu eeponti ngonyaka  ,

oya kuthi wongeze kwikhulu leeponti enizinikwa ngabantu abanobubele ukuze nincede abo baniphakelayo. Uya kuba neminyaka emithathu; kulunge kanye ukuba niwadle ekutyeni kwenu, kunokuba nibele amalizo kumahlwempu; Ukholwa njani

ukuba yamkelwe phambi koThixo, uyigcinele loo mali oonongendi emva kokufa kwakho?

Lo myalelo ndawamkela ngokungathi uvela kuThixo; Ndade ndayivuyela loo nto, kwaye ndathembisa uMphathi wam ukuba uza kuyifezekisa. Isiqingatha semali yam yomhlalaphantsi yehla, ndaza ndongeza oko ndandiyalelwe nguMphathi wam. Kodwa ngelishwa! nantsi imbonakalo eqalekisiweyo eyafika kum kwiimfuno zam kwizigulo zam kunye nesondlo sam. Ndazifumana ndiswele impahla yasebusika; Ndathetha ngayo kuMphathi wam, kwaye ndamela kuye iimfuno zam kunokuba ndize kunokuba ndize.

Lo mama ulungileyo uye wavuma ukundimela ngokundixelela ukuba le mali ndiyisebenzise njengoko ndiyidinga, ndinxibe okanye ndinxibele izinto eziyimfuneko kwizigulo zam.

UThixo undazisa ngolo hlobo, nantso into amelwe kukuthi ndiyenze. Uthi mandibuyisele kwabandiphakelayo imali ebendifanele ukubanika yona, kususela kulaa mini ndandibanike yona indawo yokuhlala. Ndizibona ndisematyaleni amashumi amahlanu eeponti kumashumi amathandathu anesithathu eeponti ndisenazo. UThixo ufuna ukuba ngale mali ndizikhulule ngokwangoku kwento endiyityalayo, kuba ndiza kuba kwintlupheko egqibeleleyo yezinto zexeshana. Nangona kunjalo, njengoko ndenze isibhambathiso sokuthobela, ndiya kwenza kuphela ngokwesiluleko somvumi wam kunye noMphathi wam.

 

§. VI.

Ukuziphatha okuza kulandelwa ehlabathini ngoonongendi abathi uguquko lunyanzelise ukuba bashiye iimonki zabo. Isinxibo kufuneka basinxibe. Ngesi sihlandlo lo dade unikela ingxelo ngeemeko zokumka kwakhe nemithetho yokuziphatha awayinikwa yiNkosi Yethu.

 

Lo mbhalo ujonge abantu abangcwalisiweyo kuThixo, ngakumbi abonqulo, ngamaxesha emvukelo neentshutshiso ezichasene neCawe, apho ubundlobongela babatshutshisi bakhupha iinkolo kwiindawo zabo ukuze bababeke emhlabeni njengezimvu ezibhadulayo nangenamfundisi.

Nantsi into endibophezelayo iNkosi ukuba ndiyibhale ngokuziphatha ekufanele kulandelwe ngoonongendi abazifumana benyanzelekile ukuba baphile emhlabeni, ngokoko wandazisa ngako ngaphambi kwexesha lesi siqalekiso.

intlekele, apho sasongelwa ngokushiya uluntu lwethu ngenkani nangobundlobongela.

 

Usisi uyothusa xa esiva ukuba uza kukhutshwa kwindawo ahlala kuyo. Ubhenela emthandazweni.

Eli lishwa lingevayo layibamba intliziyo yam kangangokuba ndandingazi ukuba mandiphendule ndithini. Ngoko nangoko ndaguqukela eNkosini yethu, ndithandaza kuyo ngokumanyene nomthandazo ongcwele awawenza kwiGadi yemiNquma ngobusuku boMvuzo wakhe ongcwele. Ndayicela ke le nto kuNdikhoyo: Thixo wam, ukuba kunokwenzeka, mayidlule le ndebe singayiselanga. Ndandiwuphindaphinda lo mthandazo qho xa sixelelwa iindaba ezibuhlungu zokuba ngokuqinisekileyo siza kukhutshwa kwindawo yethu. Xa ndandinethuba, ndaya phambi koMthendeleko oNgcwele ukuze ndikhalele inceba ezinyaweni zeNkosi yethu, ndisoloko ndiphindaphinda umthandazo omnye.

 

INkosi yethu ivakalisa kuye ukuba ukuphuma kwakhe kumiselwe ngobulungisa bakhe. Uyazithoba kuyo.

INkosi yethu yathi kum: “Ewe, uya kuphuma, ndiyakuyalela oko ngobulungisa bam. UThixo wandenza ndaqonda ukuba imiyalelo yakhe yayingeyam ndedwa, koko yayiphathelele nakuwo wonke ummandla walapho, owandibangela ukuba ndibe lusizi  ngakumbi kunokufa  .

Sekunjalo, ndazinikela ekuthandeni kukaThixo, ndaza ndazinikela ekusesikweni kwakhe ngokumanyana kwedini iNkosi Yethu eyalenzayo yaza yalinikela kuYise ngokwamkela uMvelelo wayo ongcwele. Ndathi: Yeha! Nkosi, kwidini endilenzayo kuwe, yonke into ivukela iimvakalelo zam, indalo kunye nentando yam; noko ke ndiya kubingelela kuwe. Makwenziwe ubungcwele bakho, hayi eyam. Ndaza ke ndavakalisa eNkosini yethu zonke izihlabo zam, ndathi kuyo, Nkosi yam, eli dini lingaphezu kokufa kum. Yhini Thixo wam ukuya kweli hlabathi ndilicaphukela kangaka, ndihambe ndinentliziyo engaka? ndingathini na ukuzigcina izibhambathiso ngaphandle  kwazo

 

 

(286-290)

ekuhlaleni? Ndincwine ngokuphindiweyo, ndathi, Thixo wam, uya kundikhaphela phi na? INkosi yethu yazolisa ixhala lam ngokuthi kum: “Musa ukuba buhlungu kakhulu, ntombi yam; Ndincede, ndiya kuhlala ndinawe kwaye ndiya kukubeka entliziyweni yam.

 

Indlela oonongendi abasuswa ngayo kwindawo yabo.

Emva koko kufika usuku oluyingozi xa yaqala intlekele yethu. Kweza inkitha yamajoni axhobileyo; abanye bagruzuka, benyuka ezindongeni, baziphakamisa izitshixo ngomkhandi wezitshixo; emva koko benyuka baya ezifestileni zekwayara apho besihlanganisene khona sonke. Bangena ababini ngeefestile, bazivula zonke iingcango ngaphakathi; bangena bonke ekwayara bexhobile, bengasichukumisi, bengasithuki, bengathethi nokuthetha. Abazali boonongendi abaliqela bathumela iikhareji ezaziqhutywa kwindawo ebiyelweyo.

 

Uqhanqalazo lukaSister phambi kokuba angene emotweni.

UBonelelo Olungcwele lwavumela ukuba ndibe ngowokuqala ukukhwela enqwelweni, yaye kwenzeka oku kum: Ndaziva ndichukumiseke ngokunzulu entliziyweni yam evela eNkosini Yethu, eyathi kum: “Thetha nebandla, uze umazise igama lakho. intlungu kunye neemvakalelo zentliziyo yakho. Kwangoko, ngaphandle kokubonisana okanye ukucinga, ndathi: Madoda, imvume yokuthetha; bandinika abaphulaphuli. Ndathi kubo ngelizwi elinamandla nelidlamkileyo: Yazini, manene, ukuba umthetho osikhuphayo kuluntu lwethu, ubungazama ukuphila kwethu, ngekuba kuthi kube lubabalo nobabalo olukhulu. Kwangoko ndakhwela enqwelweni kunye noomama bethu ababini, ababecele umntakwabo ukuba andikhaphe ngenceba.

 

Iziphumo zoqhanqalazo lwakhe.

Ukufika kwethu, iNkosi Yethu yandenza ndaqonda ukuba, ukuba, ngokubona abantu abaninzi kangaka, besiphume singakhange sitsho nelimdaka, njengezimvu, bekuya kubakho amajoni ebeya kuhlaziswa kakhulu. usinike uyolo ngaphezu kweentlungu. Kodwa endaweni yokuba ahlazeke, uninzi lwawona majoni avutha ngumsindo aqalisa ukulila. INkosi yethu yandinika ukuqonda ukuba kwisigwebo ngokubanzi, ukubonisa ubulungisa bayo, iya kusebenzisa ezinye

amazwi awayewabeke emlonyeni wam, ukuze abonise intlungu ababekuyo kubafazi bakhe.

 

Imithetho yokuziphatha iNkosi yethu eyinika uDade.

Kwiintsuku ezimbini okanye ezintathu emva kokulishiya ibutho labantu, ndibongoza emithandazweni yam uncedo lukaThixo ukuba andincede aze andikhokelele kule ntlambo yeenyembezi; INkosi yethu, ngokulunga kwayo okumsulwa, yandiyalela indlela endimele ndiziphathe ngayo, yaza yatsho kum ukuthi: “Zixhobise njengejoni elingena edabini, thabatha izixhobo zokuhlasela, uzikhusele; Yiba nokholo oluphilileyo, ithemba eliqinileyo, uthando oluvuthayo; iya kuba luthando lwam olukhulu oluya kukwenza uloyise kuzo zonke iintshaba zakho, kwaye uphumelele kuzo zonke iimfazwe zakho. Gcina ukuba wedwa

yokufezeka. Libalekeni elimiweyo, njengoko ndalibalekayo mna; Yithiye njengesono intetho yakhe, namazwi akhe; ziqhelise ukuthula nokuthandaza; thanda umthandazo kunye nomsebenzi; zingcungcuthekiseni iinyembezi naziintlungu zokundibona ndikhubeke ngolo hlobo, ngokuncwina kwentliziyo etyumkileyo nethotyiweyo. INkosi yethu yongezelela yathi: “Le yindlela yokuziphatha endiniyalela yona. Ndiyakuyalela ukuba uyiqwalasele kangangoko kunokwenzeka. Ndiya kuba nani kuzo zonke iimbandezelo zenu; nalapho ukhokelelwa khona ndiya kukukhapha. Ndiya kuwagcina onke amanyathelo akho, ndiya kuba ngumkhokeli

Ngobu bunzima iNkosi yethu iya kubazi oonongendi abangabayo. Uya kubanyamekela.

Yandula ke iNkosi yathi kum: “Yabona, ndibavavanyile bonke oonongendi, abalungileyo nababi, yaye ngoku siza kubona ukuba ngoobani na abangabam. Oonongendi abangabam baya kuhlala benomoya wemo yabo entliziyweni ngenxa yothando abanalo kum: ngoko ke andisoze ndibalahle. Njengoko beya kusoloko bejonge kum, ndiya kuhlala ndiwabeke iliso lam kubo. Kwiimfuno ezicinezelayo, nakwiintlungu abaya kuzifumana, ndiya kuhlala ndikulungele ukubanceda. Unina ebeya kubalibala msinyane abantwana awabazala esibelekweni kunokuba ndilibale ngabo. Ndiya kuba nguThixo wabo, uyise nomyeni wabo, ekugqibeleni abe ngukumkani wabo. »

 

INkosi yethu iyamthuthuzela uDade kwintlungu ayifumanayo yokuvinjwa imithendeleko.

Ngenye imini, ndisentlungwini enkulu yokuvinjwa imithendeleko, iNkosi Yethu yenza olu ngcikivo luzolileyo kum: “Ukhalazela ntoni, ntombi yam? Andinguye na umfundisi wenu, umvumi wenu, umlawuli wenu? Ungakhalaza njani ngam? Ndiyinto yakho yonke ezintweni zonke. »

 

Iinceba iNkosi yethu ithembisa kuzo zonke iinkolo. Abo baya kuxhamla, kunye nabangayi kuxhamla.

Wathi ke uYehova kum, Ndiya kubanyamekela oonongendi bonke, ndibafundise bonke ngokubanzi

okulungileyo nokubi; naphakathi kwenkundla yobulungisa bam, abayi kuba nasinyeliso ngakum; endaweni yoko, baya kuzigweba ngokwabo ngehambo elishwa abaya kuyilandela, nto leyo elubala ubabalo lwam. ndiya kubayala, ndibafundise ngeencwadi ezilungileyo, nangemiyalelo yabalungiseleli bam. Amatyeli alikhulu, emfihlekweni, ndiye ndazichukumisa iintliziyo zabo ngeentshukumo eziphilileyo nezigqobhozayo zobabalo lwam, olubenza bazi ukuba mabenze ntoni na nabafanele ukukuphepha. Umfazi wam othembekileyo uya kundimamela, kwaye, ethobela iimpefumlelo zam, uya kwenza kangangoko ndinako oko ndiya kumyalela ngemisebenzi yakhe kunye nezibophelelo zakhe. Kodwa ngaba ngoonongendi behlabathi abaya kundithobela? Hayi. Ndiza kuhamba kalikhulu nekhulu ukuya kunkqonkqoza kucango lweentliziyo zabo, ngaphandle kokuba bandivule. Endaweni yokwenza njengeentombi eziziingqondi ezithi, ngokunikela ingqalelo kuzo, ziphephe zonke iimeko ezimbi ezinokuzikhokelela esonweni, zona, ngokuchaseneyo, ziyazifuna zize ziye kuzo ngokwazo. Nam ndiya kurhoxa kubo, njengokuba berhoxa kum. Ndingalindela ntoni kwaba nongendi behlabathi nabangathembekanga ekuhlaleni kwabo, ngaphandle nje kokuba banyathele phezu kwazo zonke iingenelo zam, nokuba bayakuvuyela ukufuna iincoko zehlabathi, endaweni yokuthembeka kubabalo lwam. ndiya kubashiya bekwingqondo yabo; Ndiya kubayeka baqhube ubumnandi kunye endaweni yoko, bayabafuna baze baye khona ngokwabo. Nam ndiya kurhoxa kubo, njengokuba berhoxa kum. Ndingalindela ntoni kwaba nongendi behlabathi nabangathembekanga ekuhlaleni kwabo, ngaphandle nje kokuba banyathele phezu kwazo zonke iingenelo zam, nokuba bayakuvuyela ukufuna iincoko zehlabathi, endaweni yokuthembeka kubabalo lwam. ndiya kubashiya bekwingqondo yabo; Ndiya kubayeka baqhube ubumnandi kunye endaweni yoko, bayabafuna baze baye khona ngokwabo. Nam ndiya kurhoxa kubo, njengokuba berhoxa kum. Ndingalindela ntoni kwaba nongendi behlabathi nabangathembekanga ekuhlaleni kwabo, ngaphandle nje kokuba banyathele phezu kwazo zonke iingenelo zam, nokuba bayakuvuyela ukufuna iincoko zehlabathi, endaweni yokuthembeka kubabalo lwam. ndiya kubashiya bekwingqondo yabo; Ndiya kubayeka baqhube ubumnandi kunye Thembeka kubabalo lwam. ndiya kubashiya bekwingqondo yabo; Ndiya kubayeka baqhube ubumnandi kunye Thembeka kubabalo lwam. ndiya kubashiya bekwingqondo yabo; Ndiya kubayeka baqhube ubumnandi kunye

funa ukwanelisa ihlabathi; kwaye endaweni yokulakha ihlabathi, baya kulihlazisa.

“Ngokwahlukileyo koko, umfazi wam, ngokunikela ingqalelo kuye nakwiimbopheleleko zakhe, uya kuzenza ahlonelwe ngabantu bonke, kwaneentshaba zakhe, yaye wonk’ ubani uya kumjonga aze amqonde njengonqulo olulungileyo nolokwenyaniso. Kwaye into endiyithethayo ngalo nongendi olungileyo, ndithetha ngabo bonke abangabam nabathembekileyo kum. Ndathi kubo, Yibani ngabafezekileyo, njengokuba uYihlo osemazulwini efezekile. Yibani ngcwele ngokuba uYihlo osemazulwini ungcwele kathathu. »

 

Isinxibo esizakunxitywa ngoonongendi kwihlabathi jikelele.

Ndibophelelekile ukuba ndivakalise oko uThixo athe wandazisa ekukhanyeni kwakhe ngokusingisele kwisinxibo soonongendi abaphoswe ehlabathini, nabathe bahluthwa umkhwa ongcwele wonqulo ukuze babambese ngempahla yehlabathi.

 

Izinwele zabo.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba akulungile ukuba umfazi ococekileyo we-JC abe nentloko nentamo yakhe enxibe ngendlela yabantu behlabathi. Ukuthanda kukaThixo kukuba wonke unongendi anxibe intambo entloko ejikeleze ubuso bakhe kwaye ijikeleze ikhola, ukuze oko kuwa kwi-wimple esifubeni nasemagxeni, kuphakanyiswe kwikhola; nokuba iqhiya yonqulo ibekwe entloko phezu kwentambo; ingaba isahlulo sesithathu okanye isiqingatha sebunzi, phantsi kwe-root headdress ephuphuma i-headband encinci, ewela ebunzini; unkontsho lube yilinen ephothiweyo, ephothiweyo, nelinen ecikizekileyo, ephothiweyo; ukuba ilaphu le-headdress libe lelohlobo olufanayo njengetshefu abaya kubeka phezu komjikelezo we-wimple, eboshwe ngesikhonkwane phezulu kwikhola; ukuba iithebhu zombini zentloko ziboshwe phantsi kwesilevu, kwaye zingaphakanyiswa phezu kwentloko; umnqwazi ube ngowoboya, ngaphandle kokusongelwa kwesilika; iphuphuma isigqubuthelo sentloko ebubanzini bomnwe ukuya kumashiya; ukuba oonongendi banxibe yonke imihla ukongeza umkhusane; kodwa xa kunyanzelekile ukuba baphume; baya kuthoba, ukuba bayathanda, kukuzinikela kwabo  .

 

Umbala kunye nokulula kweempahla zabo.

Nantsi into endayibonayo kwakhona kuThixo malunga nazo zonke iimpahla zehlabathi ezinokunxiba oonongendi. Kukho imibala emithathu: owokuqala umdaka, weyona nto ilula yoboya, ukuxelisa iintombi ezinyulu

izilumko ezihlala kwiBandla elingcwele zililahla ihlabathi nazo zonke izithethe zalo, ezithi, ukubonisa ukuba zigcina ukungatshati, zinxiba ezimdaka; isambatho sesibini simnyama ngombala, ukulinganisa isambatho secawa; eyesithathu imhlophe, ixelisa ingubo emhlophe eyanikwa iNkosi Yethu kwaHerode. Le ngubo emhlophe ingaba yi-sprig okanye ilinen kuphela, okanye yoboya obulula.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba oonongendi abangamahlwempu abangenayo imali yokuthenga umkhwa opheleleyo, banokusebenzisa izambatho zonqulo zasekuhlaleni, bazikhulule baze bazinxibe izambatho zehlabathi, nokuba nguwuphi na umbala; kucingelwa ukuba azingombala wehlabathi.

Bonke oonongendi banokunxiba iimpahla zomnye wale mibala mithathu ikhankanywe ngasentla, bade banxibe ingwevu, nto leyo eyayisisithethe ekuhlaleni, ukuba ezi mpahla zezona zilula kwaye zihambelana nokuthozama, ubuhlwempu obungcwele kunye nokugatywa okungcwele.

 

Izihlangu zabo.

Zibalekeni zonke iifashoni zehlabathi, kwaneembadada; ukuba izicathulo zisondele ngokusemandleni abo banxitywa kuluntu; mayibe yinto enye kwiikawusi, kwaye kungabikho mivumbo nokuba kwiiflaneli okanye kwiilaphu. Ukuba abantu abambalwa, ngenxa yothando,

 

 

(296-300)

 

 

banike oonongendi iimpahla ezinemigca, kufuneka bazidaywe phambi kokuba bazinxibe. Bakwanyanzelekile, xa bephuma, ukuba banxibe ingubo emnyama yoboya phezu kwempahla yabo, ngaphandle kwayo nayiphi na ifashoni yehlabathi, ukuze bathobeke ngakumbi.

 

Ixesha labo lokulala.

Bonke oonongendi banyanzelekile, kangangoko banako, ukuba balale ezingqengqelweni, njengakwiindawo abahlala kuzo, neenwele zabo zenziwe njengoko babenjalo. Abo balele bembethe mabanxibe iingubo zabo, banxibe neempahla zabo

ibhanti, njengakuluntu lwabo. Ndazi abaninzi abenza oko. Ngamaxesha oloyiko, nawuphi na unongendi angazifihla ukuze afumane iisakramente.

 

§. VII.

Indlela oonongendi abasehlabathini abafanele bazigcine ngayo izibhambathiso zabo. Izibhambathiso zokuthobela nobuhlwempu.

 

Oonongendi banyanzelekile ukuba bazabalazele imfezeko ngokuthobela izibhambathiso zabo.

Ndisanyanzelekile, ngokumalunga noonongendi, ukuba ndichaze okuthile ngokugcinwa kwezibhambathiso zabo ngoxa besehlabathini. Kukho oonongendi abangafezekanga kangangokuba bacinga ukuba, xa bengaphandle kweendawo abahlala kuzo, akukho nto banokuyigcina kwizibhambathiso zabo okanye imithetho yabo. Kubo kubonakala ngathi yonk’ into irhoxisiwe yaye abasenamsebenzi nanto, ekubeni bengasekho ekuhlaleni. Obu bumfama buvela kwinto yokuba abatyekeleli ngentliziyo yabo yonke kwimfezeko, nangona kunjalo, banyanzelekile ukuba bayizame, phantsi kwesohlwayo sesono esifayo.

Kuba ukuba iNkosi yethu yathi kwiVangeli yakhe: "Yibani ngabafezekileyo njengoko uYihlo osemazulwini efezekile," ndibona kuThixo ukuba ayingombuzo wokuba nekratshi kunye nesibindi sokufuna ukufikelela ubungcwele bukaThixo ongcwele kathathu. INkosi yethu ngaloo ndlela ibonisa ukuba wonke umKrestu unyanzelekile ukuba athambekele kwimfezeko yemeko yakhe, kodwa ngakumbi ukuba wonke umntu ongcwalisiweyo kuThixo ngemo yobungcwele ambizele kuyo uThixo, ubophelelekile ukuba athambekele kwingqibelelo yentliziyo yakhe yonke kunye nengqibelelo yentliziyo yakhe yonke. umphefumlo wakhe wonke ngenxa yothando lukaThixo, naphantsi kwentlungu yesono esinokufa; kwaye ukuba iyayeka ukuthambekela kwimfezeko, kwaye ukuba iyayilibala le ngongoma inkulu, nokuba kungenxa yokudelela, okanye ukungakhathali, okanye ukoyika ukuchasa, yimpazamo.

 

Inkohliso ngesifungo sokuthobela.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba oonongendi abanjalo bemka kuThixo baze bamlibale; mabazilibale, balibale uninzi lweembopheleleko zabo. Ngokomzekelo, kumbandela wesibhambathiso sokuthobela, oonongendi abangafezekanga, ababophelelekile ukuba baphile ehlabathini, baya kufumanisa ukuba bangaphandle kwedyokhwe yentobelo, bengasekho phantsi kwamehlo oMkhulu;

kwaye nanjengoko befumene imvume ngokubanzi yokulushiya uluntu, bazenzela isicwangciso sobomi ehlabathini, ngokokuthanda kwabo nangokwentando yabo; bathetha ezintliziyweni zabo, besithi, Ndiyeke uThixo; Bavumela wonk’ ubani ofuna ukubamamela aqonde ukuba benza oko ngemvume yoMkhulu wabo.

Xa besiya kuvuma izono, abafumani nto banokwenza ngayo uviwo lwabo. Ukuba banayo nayiphi na imvume yokubuza ummangaleli wabo, abayi kuthetha nabo banamava angakumbi obomi bonqulo; baya kukhangela lowo, mhlawumbi, ongaze enze naluphi na uphononongo lwezibhambathiso ze-monastic: baya kucela imvume yakhe yokuhamba kwaye bathathe umoya omtsha ngenxa yempilo yabo. Lo mvuma-tyala, ongabazi kakuhle ubungakanani bemfanelo yezibhambathiso, ubavumela yonke into ngokubanzi naselwandle. Amantombazana angamahlwempu! yiloo nto kuphela abayifunayo  .

Ukuba uPhakamileyo ufundile ukuba bazinika inkululeko eninzi, kwaye ukuba ufuna ukubakhalimela kwaye abanike i-remonstrances yesisa, bayamphendula bathi: Mama, ndinemvume yovuma izono zam. Lo Mama uPhakamileyo olungileyo uya kubaphendula athi: Bodade bam, abefundisi abahle abathethi ngokufanayo bonke; Ndifumene abanye ababona ububi apho kungekho bani. Aba nongendi baya kumphendula bathi: Mama, uya kufuna awona maqhinga: kuthi, sithobela umvuma wethu, kwaye sisendleleni eya elusindisweni. Ngaloo ndlela uPhakamileyo unyanzelekile ukuba anikezele kwaye arhoxe.

 

Uphawu lokuthobela ngokwenene.

Wonke umonakalo uvela ekubeni ungangeni ngokwakho ngokwaneleyo, kwaye ungacingi ngeembopheleleko zakho. Unongendi ozabalazela imfezeko ufumana imibandela emininzi anokuzihlola ngayo. Ukuhamba phambi koThixo, akayi kuthabatha naliphi na inyathelo, naliphi na inyathelo, akayi kwenza projekthi ngaphandle kokubuza kuThixo nesazela sakhe ukuze azi ukuba kukho nantoni na kuloo nto ngokuchasene neminqweno yakhe okanye ngokuchasene neembopheleleko zakhe. Ikhumbula ukuba iNkosi yethu yathobela, yathobela kwada kwasekufeni emnqamlezweni ngenxa yothando lwethu, iya kwenza konke okusemandleni ayo ukuyinika uthando lothando, kwaye ayiyi kwenza nto kuzo zonke izenzo zayo ezinokuthi zichasene.

 

 

(301-305)

 

 

ekuthandeni kukaThixo. Phantse esoloko ezihlolisisa ngokunzulu, wayezixelela oku: Ngaba ngokwenene kukuthanda kukaThixo oku ndikwenzayo? ndilapho uThixo afuna mna? Uthobela ubabalo lwakhe olungcwele kangangoko kunokwenzeka, ecinga ukuba nguThixo ngokwakhe amthobelayo. Uyamthobela oPhakamileyo wakhe ngokufika ngexesha, nokuba ngeleta, ukuba ukude kakhulu kuye, okanye ngokobuqu ngokuya kumfumana. Lo nongendi olungileyo umbuza ngokuchanekileyo iimvume zakhe, kwaye umnika ingxelo ngokuziphatha kwakhe kungekuphela nje ngaphandle, kodwa nangaphakathi. Ubhala kwakudala entliziyweni yakhe amacebiso obubele neengqalekiso azinikwa ngunina olungileyo, ecinga ukuba uyibambele  ngokwakhe indawo kaThixo.

 

Ukholo nothando lukaThixo, izixhobo ezihlaselayo nezikhuselayo zenkolo elungileyo.

Lo nongendi olungileyo uhlala enxibe iingalo zakhe ezihlaselayo nezikhuselayo, njengoko besesitshilo. Ezi zixhobo lukholo nothando lukaThixo. Isibane sokholo simkhokelela kuwo onke amanyathelo akhe kwaye simkhanyisela kuzo zonke izenzo zakhe. Uthando lukaThixo luyamtshisa ngokucacileyo luze lumanyanise ngokusondeleyo nendoda yakhe, kangangokuba umntu usenokuthi ungokaThixo ngakumbi kunaye; ukuba uThixo unjengomphefumlo womphefumlo wakhe, nomphefumlo womphefumlo wakhe.

Eqhele ukwenza izinto ngeenyaniso zokholo ezimkhokelela ngokuthe ngqo kuThixo, ngaphandle kokuphambuka kubi, akanawo omnye umsebenzi ngaphandle kwalowo wokukholisa umyeni wakhe nokuphila phantsi kokuxhomekeka kwakhe naphambi kwayo. Ucamngca, kangangoko anako, ngomthetho wakhe ongcwele, imiyalelo yakhe yobungcwele neemfanelo zakhe zonke, eqinisekile ukuba le yindlela uThixo ambekele yona ukuze aphumeze ulonwabo lwakhe ezulwini. Banoyolo oonongendi abaya kuziphatha ngolu hlobo!

 

Uphawu loonongendi owayesetyenziswa kubukho bukaThixo.

Kwindawo endihlala kuyo, ndandimazi unongendi owathi, ethetha nam ngoThixo olungileyo, ngequbuliso wathi kum, ngendlela yokubonisa ukuba iphuma kwintabalala yentliziyo yakhe: Ah! Sister wam, hayi ilishwa elikhulu ukuphulukana nobukho bukaThixo ubude nje pater and an ave! Ndambuza ngaphandle kokufuna ukwazi, kodwa ukuze ndizifundise, indlela awayeziphethe ngayo noonongendi kwigumbi lokusebenzela, apho babevunyelwa ukuba bathethe ngoxa besebenza emva kwemini. Waphendula nje ngokulula: Dadewethu, njengaye

Ndibuqhelile ubukho bukaThixo, ngamanye amaxesha kuyenzeka kum, emva kokuba ndithethe amazwi ambalwa koonongendi, ukuphulukana nayo yonke ingqalelo kwizidalwa nakuyo yonke into abayithethayo; ukuze ndingaphenduli ngayo yonke into ethethiweyo nayo yonke into eyenzekayo.

 

Buquka ntoni ubuhlwempu bokwenyaniso bonqulo? Ubungakanani bayo.

Kwakhona makhe sithethe okuthile ngesifungo sobuhlwempu ekufuneka unqulo lusiqwalasele ehlabathini, ngamaxesha entshutshiso. Ubuhlwempu obungcwele, obungenakwahlulwa kwi-abjection engcwele, intombi yayo enkulu, kufuneka yenziwe ngokuchanekileyo. Esi sidima siqulethe izinto ezintathu: ubuhlwempu obupheleleyo bazo zonke izinto ezilungileyo zenyama, ubuhlwempu bomoya, ubuhlwempu bentliziyo, oko kukuthi yonke iminqweno, nayo yonke intuthuzelo.

 

 

JC ubuhlwempu

Ndihlala ndibuyela kulo mzekelo ungcwele, uMsindisi wethu othandekayo, owaqhuba intlupheko enkulu ukususela ekuzalweni kwakhe de kwasekufeni kwakhe. Umntu ubona kukhanye emntwini wakhe le ntlupheko ingcwele kunye noku kugatywa kungcwele. Ah! Hayi, ukudelela lo msindisi uThixo, ukuba azalelwe emgqubeni phakathi kwezilwanyana ezimbini, alaliswe emkhumbini! Uqalisa ukubamkela ubuhlwempu, yaye buhamba naye kubo bonke ubomi bakhe, kude kuse engcwabeni, njengoko sibona kwiVangeli, awayeze kusibhengeza ukuze asiyalele umthetho wakhe ongcwele. Lo Msindisi ungcwele wadala izulu nomhlaba.

Yonke impahla yeyakhe, ukanti wayengenamhlaba wexeshana, nandlu, namhlaba, nangeniso, wayephila kuphela ngokusisa kwabasweleyo. Waye kweli hlabathi njengomhambi odlulayo, engenanto ngaphandle kobomi bakhe, kwaye uhambo lwakhe luhamba kuphela ngamancedo anikwe yena. Akanaye kuphela, lo Msindisi ungcwele, ngokwaneleyo ukuba ahlawule irhafu kuKesare. Umelwe kukuba enze ummangaliso; amaxesha amaninzi uzenzela izidalwa zakhe imimangaliso xa ziswele, ziswela ukutya, njengoko kwaba njalo ngokuzala kwezonka. Yeha! lo Msindisi ungcwele akenzeli nto ingako, esenzela yena nabapostile bakhe; kuba kuthiwa ngenye imini xa babenesidingo kwaye bedinga ukutya, bengenanto yokuzixhasa, lo Msindisi unobubele wayenayo, akukho kusabela kummangaliso; kodwa yena nabapostile bakhe bamisa izikhwebu zengqolowa entsimini, bazityumza ezandleni zabo, babeka iipunjana ezimbalwa emlonyeni wabo, baza bazidla ukuze bathobe indlala kancinane. Yhoo yintoni! Msindisi ongcwele, wenze imimangaliso amaxesha amaninzi ukuze ukondle

Ezinzulwini zeentlango! Ubathumelela isonka ngezithunywa zakho, ngamanye amaxesha nangezilo!

Owu ubuhlwempu obungcwele! Owu ukucekiswa okungcwele! indlela othandwa ngayo nguMsindisi wam! Ukuthabatha njengeqabane lakhe kubo bonke ubomi bakhe, kwaye uhlala enamathele kuwe kude kube sekufeni. Ufuna ukufela ezingalweni zakho. Kum kubonakala ngathi izulu nomhlaba ziye zavumelana kwaye zasebenza kunye ukuxhwaleka nokubangela ukubandezeleka

 

 

(306-310)

 

 

zonke iindlela lo Msindisi uthandekayo. Uhluthwe yonke intuthuzelo yobuthixo neyabantu. Isibhakabhaka siye sajika sajika saba lubhedu ukuze singamncedi. Intoni! uthandaza kuYise, yaye lo Bawo ungokobuthixo akasamphulaphuli uNyana wakhe, nokuphela koNyana wakhe! Yayinguwuphi umxholo wesikhalazo esilungileyo salo Msindisi unothando emnqamlezweni: Thixo wam, undishiyeleni na? Ukhalazela unxano, bamseze ngenyongo neviniga; walelwa iglasi yamanzi. Owu ubuhlwempu obungcwele! umhlube ezakhe iingubo, umshiye elele ze emnqamlezweni! Obunjani bona ubuhlwempu! Hayi ukulahlwa! Owu kukuzincama kwayo yonke into! Owu Msindisi wam ongcwele, uncitshiswe kwesiphi isimo ngenxa yothando lwethu!

 

Umnqamlezo kaJC yipulpiti apho ashumayela khona eyona mfezeko iphakamileyo kwimiphefumlo.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba lo Msindisi wobuthixo, uThixo oyinyaniso nomntu oyinyaniso, oqhotyoshelwe emnqamlezweni, wenze lo mnqamlezo waba yipulpiti, apho, njengomshumayeli ongokobuthixo, amisela umzekelo, ashumayele eyona mfundiso ingcwele, kwaye abonise yonke imfundiso yobuthixo. izinto ezintle kweyona mfezeko yabo ibalaseleyo nengcwele. Ukumbona ekule meko, apho wenza khona owona mmangaliso mkhulu wakha wabakho, nongenakuqondwa ngabantu; ukubona into yalo mmangaliso, kufuneka sithathele ingqalelo lo Msindisi ungcwele emnqamlezweni njengakwitrone yobulungisa, apho wawavakalisa khona la mazwi awawathethayo kubomi bakhe basemhlabeni: “Xa athe wavuswa uNyana woMntu phakathi kwezulu nomhlaba, uyakutsalela yonke into kuye. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba yonke into uyitsalela kuye ngokholo oluphilayo, ngothando olungagungqiyo, nangomnqweno wokunyamekela, ngamnye kwimeko yakhe, kwimfezeko.

Imiphefumlo eyahlulelwe kuThixo ngezibhambathiso ezingatyekelanga kwimfezeko iyahlehla ngaphandle kokuqaphela oko.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba yonke imiphefumlo, ayenze izibhambathiso enzulu, yazahlulela kuThixo ngakumbi kunamaKristu aqhelekileyo, ibophelelekile ngovumo lwabo ukuba ingayeki ukugqibelela; ukuba basuka kude kule ngongoma, okanye bazilibale bekhokelela ubomi obuthambileyo kwaye bezama ukubamba umbindi, oko kukuthi, kungekhona ukuba kubi ngokupheleleyo, ngenxa yokwesaba ukunika i-scandal, kodwa nokubeka eceleni. umnqweno kunye neendlela zokuzabalazela ukugqibelela kobume babo; ukuba, kulo mbono, baphila ngokwaneliseka, bekholelwa kusindiso lwabo, le miphefumlo iyawalibala la mazwi: Lowo ungaqhubekiyo phambili uyabuya. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba bayahexa ngolo hlobo, bade bawe kubumfama besiya kubumfama, phantse bengaqondi; abaqondi nokuba basendleleni eya  entshabalalweni.

 

Ngokwahlukileyo koko, imiphefumlo ethembekileyo, ehlala izabalazela ukufezeka, ihambela phambili kakhulu ingaqapheli.

Kananjalo ndiyabona kuThixo ukuba imiphefumlo ethembekileyo ekuphulaphuleni ubabalo, nasekuphileni oko ikuphefumlelayo, abangayimiseliyo iminqweno yabo; abathi rhoqo batyekele ekuzihlambululeni nasekuzingcwaliseni, nabasebenza ekukhanyeni nakumoya wokholo nangothando olunyulu lukaThixo, ukuze bamkholise ngakumbi uMsindisi wabo ongokobuthixo ngokuqhelisela ukulunga; Ndibona kuThixo, ndithi, kuyenzeka ukuba le miphefumlo ilungileyo iqhubele phambili ngomkhondo omkhulu ukuya kwimfezeko, phantse ngaphandle kokuqaphela. Ndibona kulo Msindisi uthandekayo ubabalo lwengcwaliselo ehamba rhoqo phezu kwale miphefumlo, kwaye ngayo ayitsalele kuye, ongumbhali wayo yonke ingqibelelo.

 

Uqheliselo lobuhlwempu. ningabi nanto iyeyakhe; yamkela yonke into ngezipho.

Apha, ngokubhekiselele kwintlupheko engcwele, yinto ekufuneka yenziwe ngaphandle nangaphakathi kuyo yonke inkolo enyanzelekileyo ukuba iphile kwihlabathi.

Bamele baziqinisekise ngamandla ukuba bakwinqanaba lamahlwempu yaye benze isifungo sobuhlwempu. Ihlwempu elicela amalizo emasangweni liyikhupha into eliyinikwayo, lisithi, Yeyam le; kodwa unongendi akanakuyithetha, okanye ayicinge nokuyicinga, kufuneka azijonge

njengomhambi, umphambukeli ophila ngeendleko zesisa esingcwele asibonelelwa nguSibonelelo esingcwele, aze afumane yonke into, nokuba ibiyipere okanye iapile, okanye iglasi yamanzi. Umelwe kukuthi amkele yonke into ngokwesisa; akayi kuba nangxaki ekwenzeni oko, ukuba ngokwenene uhlwempuzekile entliziyweni, engqondweni nakwintando yakhe.

Kodwa unongendi othile uya kuthi kum, Ndingowendlu kayise, ndiyinzalelwane enkulu; Ndihleli nezihlobo zam ezisondeleyo, andikwazi kuzikhetha ngenxa yesifungo sam sentlupheko, kufuneka nditye etafileni yabo. Nantsi into endiyibonayo kuThixo, Wonke unongendi ufile kubazali bakhe; umelwe kukwamkela kubo konke okulungileyo abamenzela kona ngenxa yothando olunyulu, nangenxa yothando lukaThixo.

 

Ukuziphatha konongendi kunye nezalamane ezihluphekileyo.

Xa uThixo ebeka unongendi etafileni yentlupheko engcwele, amvavanye ngokunqongophala, okwenzekayo xa ehlala nabantu abahluphekayo abangenakukwazi ukumnika izinto eziyimfuneko ebomini, ke lo nongendi olungileyo, othwele entliziyweni yakhe isibhambathiso sobuhlwempu. , iya kuswela intswela yovuyo nothuthuzeleko, ayibonge iNkosi, ukuba ikwazi ukusiphumeza isibhambathiso sayo sobuhlwempu. Kwaye le yinto ekufuneka yenziwe ngunongendi ngamnye, xa uThixo emnika ithuba.

 

Umgca wothando lwentlupheko kwi-nun namhlanje.

Oku koko kwenziwe ngunongendi olungileyo kumhla wethu. Bambeka kwindawo ekumgangatho ophantsi kwisakhiwo esidala. Kwakukho iindawo ezininzi zokuvuleka ezazivalwe kuphela ziintambo kunye nothuli. Wayezithanda ngaphakathi

le hovel. Okanye wayefuna, ngaphandle kwesisa, ukumhlalisa kwenye indawo. Hayi, wathi, andinakuyishiya le ndawo yokuhlala inento yokwenza nesitali eBhetelehem apho wazalelwa khona uMsindisi wam. Ukuze akwazi ukuziphilisa, wayethatha abantwana abancinane ukuze abafundise. Ngomvuzo wakhe, abanye bamphathela amaqhekezana esonka,  abanye

i-chanteaux encinci (1); kangangokuba maxa wambi wayeba nabaninzi kakhulu ngexesha elinye. Wayidla ingunda; kodwa ngenxa yokoyika ukumvumela ukuba alahlekelwe, wavuma ukuba babefanele bamnike isonka kanye okanye kabini kuphela ngeveki, nangemilinganiselo ethile encinane. UThixo, owayesafuna ukumvavanya, wabavumela aba bantu balungileyo ukuba balibale ngokumzisela isonka ngemini emiselweyo. Kwakunjalo nangexesha lokuzila ukutya. Lo nongendi akazange acinge ukuba akanakutya. Lathi lakufika ixesha, emini, waya kwisidlo sangokuhlwa. Ufumana iqhekezana lesonka esinemilomo emibini okanye emithathu. Kulapho intliziyo yakhe yaphuphuma luvuyo nentuthuzelo.

(1) Ikota yesonka.

 

Ah! wathi, Ndilapha etafileni yobuhlwempu obungcwele. Thixo wam! Ndiyabulela ngokundenza ndikwazi ukwenza isifungo sam sentlupheko.

Ngelo xesha wakhumbula ukuba umseki wayo, elandela umzekelo weNkosi Yethu, wayecenge isonka sakhe. Wathi mandingamlingi uThixo, ndicinge ukuba uza kwenza ummangaliso ukuze ndindondle. Ndiza kufumana isonka emasangweni, ngenxa kaThixo. Intliziyo yakhe, ezele luthando ngoThixo, yayichulumancile, yaye wakuvuyela ukufumana eli thuba lokuqhelisela ukuthobeka nokugatywa okungcwele. Uyahamba, aye kummelwane okufutshane. Ngomoya wendoda elihlwempu elungileyo, ngenxa yothando lukaThixo, nangenxa yothando, ucela iqhekeza lesonka isidlo. Aba bantu bangamahlwempu, bekhwankqisiwe yaye bekhwankqisiwe, bamnika esidlweni sakhe oko babenako, baza bathi kuye: Nkosikazi, xa usweleyo, yiza endlwini yethu, lo gama sinesonka, woba naso; kodwa, nceda, musani ukukucela ngokwaseluthandweni, nokuba kungàsivi ubuhlungu ngokugqithileyo. Xa uzokuthatha kuthi, ukuba bebekho abantwana. kulapho ke kubekwe khona isonka, ngena ungafihlisiyo, ngokungathi kungendlu yakho, uthabathe kangangoko uswele. Waphendula unongendi wathi: Hayi zihlobo zam andizuyenza lonto, kwaye ndiyanicela ukuba ningakhe ninenze ntlungu qho xa nindibona ndize kucela amalizo kuni ngenxa yothando lukaThixo. Ndiya kukwenza oko, ngokuba ndimelwe kukuba ndinjalo, nangenxa yokuba ndizibophile ngesibhambathiso sobuhlwempu. Ndiyakubongoza ke, ukuba ungandinqandi ukwenza, kuba ubuya kundivisa ubuhlungu obukhulu. Yonke into endiyicela kuwe, ndikucela ngenceba, kwaye yonke into endiyifumeneyo, ndiyifumana ngothando nangothando lukaThixo. Yiyo ke loo nto, bantu bam balungileyo, ndicela ningakufumani kubi. Andinakwenza ngenye indlela. Ndayiqhela ngenxa yokuhlonipha isifungo sam sobuhlwempu,

 

Ukuziphatha konongendi kwizalamane ezifumileyo.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba oonongendi abasentlalweni nabanabazali abazizityebi bangoyena usizi kunabo ba ndithetha ngabo. Nangona kunjalo, banokugcina izibhambathiso zabo, ubuncinci ngaphakathi, kwaye batyekele kwimfezeko, ukuba benza ngaphandle oko uThixo andenza ukuba ndibhale. Ukuba banyanzelekile ukuba badle etafileni yabazali babo yonke imihla, kwaye abanako ukwenza ngenye indlela, kufuneka babe nembono yobuhlwempu obungcwele, kunye nobukho beNkosi yethu, ebabonayo kwaye ibacingela kuyo yonke indawo. Ngaloo ndlela, baya kukhalipha, yaye baya kuba nentembelo enkulu kuThixo nakuthando lweNkosi Yethu.

Ekubeni behleli etafileni, bafanele bafumane umoya ondilisekileyo, iimpahla ezimfaneleyo unongendi, baze bavisisane nobuhlwempu nentiyo engcwele. Àbafanele bangabi nanto yasemhlabeni, nengesinxibo, nentetho, nempahla; ukuba namehlo athobileyo ngaphandle kothando, ukuthetha kancinci kwaye kuphela ngenxa yemfuneko; kulumkele ukunikela ingqalelo yabo kwiintetho zehlabathi okanye ezingcolileyo, nakwabo bahlasela iimpawu ezintle eziliqela ngaxeshanye. Mabathi cwaka ngokunzulu, bengaxubi namagama kuloo ncoko, ngaphandle nje kokuba, xa bebuyiswa ekuthuleni kwabo, baphendule ngokulula: “Andinanto yakuyithetha kwezi ntetho, aziyomeko yam yaye azikhathali. mna; babuyela kubo. baya kukhumbula ukuba iNkosi yethu iyababona, ibabone besitya. Ukuba itafile idla ngokulungiswa kakuhle, akufanele balibale ubuhlwempu obungcwele kunye nokugatywa okungcwele, engenakuhlukaniswa nokuthobeka, ehlala kuphela kwi  -mortifications.

 

Oonongendi kufuneka basebenzise iwayini, ikofu kunye notywala kuphela njengeyeza nangaphandle kwemfuneko. Bamele bala nasiphi na isimemo sokuya esidlweni yaye bangezi kuso nasiphi na.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba oonongendi abafanele basebenzise iwayini, utywala, okanye ikofu, ngaphandle kokuba bayithatha njengeyeza okanye ngenxa yemfuneko enkulu. Ukuba kuthe kwacelwa unongendi, kwintsapho yakhe okanye kwenye indawo, ukuba aye esidlweni, isidlo sangokuhlwa okanye i-snack, makangayi konke konke; oku kuchasene ngokupheleleyo neminqweno neemfanelo zakhe. Uyazibhenca

 

(316-320)

 

 

lizimisa ehlabathini, ngokuchasene nokwalela kukaThixo oko. Umele aphendule kubantu abammemileyo ukuba eze kutya kunye nabo: Ndinyanzelekile kuwe, andinako ukuya apho, isazela sam asindivumeli, ngokuphathelele kwimisebenzi yam kunye neembopheleleko zam. Akamele oyike ukwenza kubonakale ngathi umoya wemeko akuyo uyamthintela ukuba angazibonakalisi ehlabathini.

 

Oonongendi bafanele bakulumkele ukunamathela koko bakunikwayo, koko bakufumanayo ngomsebenzi wabo nakwimali.

Ukuba kuyenzeka kunongendi ohlala nabazali bakhe, abazizityebi okanye  abangamahlwempu, ukuba banike abazali babo okanye abanye abantu ukutya, umele azikhulule ngokupheleleyo, enze konke okusemandleni ukuze angabikho esidlweni. utye kwikona ye-attic. Kufuneka kwakhona arhoxe abe yedwa, kangangoko anako, aze apho acengceleze imithandazo yakhe yengqondo, iofisi yakhe, enze ufundo lwakhe, nomsebenzi wakhe ngamaxesha awayewenza ngawo kwindawo ahlala kuyo  .

Wonke unongendi makalumke angazibandakanyi nothando olufanelekileyo koko kunokuvelisa isisa kunye nomsebenzi wabo kubo: mabacinge ukuba umoya wobuhlwempu uyala ukuba bathi: Yeyam leyo; kwanokuba abanakuyeka ngokuzithandela kule ngcamango, ngenxa yokuba abananto ngaphandle kwediphozithi emele isebenze ukuze bayisebenzise ngokuyimfuneko, nengamele ukuba ngenxa yeso sizathu isetyenziselwe ukuzithengela izinto ezigqithiseleyo, nempahla yokunxiba engokomoya wehlabathi; okanye ukutya okucekeceke kakhulu, okuya kungqubana nomoya wobuhlwempu nowokungcungcuthekisa.

Nanjengoko oonongendi, bekwimeko engonwabanga bakuyo, bengenako ukwahlukana nokuba nemali, mabaqaphele ukuba le mali iqalekisiweyo ingabangeli ukuba benze iimpazamo ezininzi. Usathana uya kwenza konke okusemandleni akhe ukukhuthaza unongendi ongaguqukiyo ngeminqweno kunye nothando olumkhokelela ekubeni anelise inkanuko yakhe. Izihlandlo ezilikhulu uya kucinga ngemali yakhe, kwaye uya kuziva umnqweno wokuba nayo yonke into enokwanelisa, nokuba kwiimpahla okanye ekutyeni. Abanye oonongendi, ngokuchaseneyo, banokukhetha ukuswela oko kuyimfuneko kunokujonga imali yabo. Baza kusebenza imini nobusuku, beyiyeka imithandazo yabo, nezifundo zabo, nemithandazo yabo, eyayisisithethe ekuhlaleni, kube yingozi kubo.

molo, kwaye oku ukufumana imali kunye nokwandisa isipaji sabo. Yijonge nje imali yakho ngokuncwina; cinga ukuba yinyoka ohlala nawe, nokuba uthe wayisebenzisa kakubi, le nyoka iya kuniqwenga, initshabalalise.

 

Umgca wemonki idemon izama ukuyihenda ngebhegi yengxowa ezele yigolide nesilivere.

Kuthe ke umntu ongcwele onqulayo esendleleni ehamba nomlingane wakhe, wayibona idemon ibabambele, ibeka ingxowa yemali endleleni ababeza kudlula kuyo. Le ngxowa-mali yakhululwa, kwaza kwabonwa igolide nesilivere kuyo. Ungcwele olungileyo udlula ngaphandle kokuchukumisa le sipaji, kwaye eqwalasele imonki eyayikunye naye, hleze ayichukumise. Le monki ivele yagoba phantsi ukuze ibeke isandla sakhe phezu kwesipaji. Ke omnye wamnqanda kwaoko, esithi kuye, Mzalwana wam, wenza ntoni na? Ngusathana osibekela umgibe. Ukuba uthe wachukumisa isipaji, usathana ungaphakathi ekwimo yenyoka eza kuqwenga isandla sakho. Ngeli xesha usathana,  ezibona woyisiwe, wathi shwaka  okomsi.

 

Abenkolo kufuneka baziphephe iibhedi.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba oonongendi abanabazali abazizityebi mabalumke bangalali kamnandi kwiduvethi. Ukuba bahlala neeriphabliki ezibachasayo ngonqulo, bamele bawashiye ngokupheleleyo amakhaya abo baye kufuna enye indawo yokusabela kumaKristu athile alungileyo.

 

§. VII.

Ukuqhubekeka kwesihloko esifanayo. Izibhambathiso zobunyulu kunye nokuvala. Ukuqukumbela ngembopheleleko yokuzabalazela imfezeko, nakubumfama obulusizi boonongendi abazityeshelayo izibhambathiso zabo zokulandela imilinganiselo namasiko ehlabathi.

 

Indlela yangaphandle yokujonga isifungo sobunyulu emhlabeni. Ukulula kwimpahla. Ukuthozama kuyo yonke into.

Masiqhubele phambili ngoku kwizifungo zobunyulu kunye nokuvala. Isibhambathiso sobunyulu, ngenxa yangaphandle, sibandakanya umfazi ococekileyo we-JC njengoko egadile ukugcina ubuncwane bakhe njengoko umlindi egada amasela, esoyika ukuba ubuncwane bakhe buya kuthatyathwa kuye. Unongendi olungileyo umele abe nokuthozama njengelungelo lakhe; kufuneka athozame kwiimpahla zakhe, njengoko besele nditshilo izihlandlo ezininzi, nanjengoko ndiphinda ndiphinda; kufuneka angabi nanto esefashonini kwiimpahla zakhe, nditsho nerhashalala okanye naliti. Ngokuchasene noko, kufuneka, kwiimpahla zakhe, azitshitshise iifashoni zehlabathi, ukuze wonke umntu ombonayo athi akasefashonini. Kufuneka ahambe namehlo athotyiweyo, xa ekhatshwa ngabantu basehlabathini, naxa kunjalo uhleli nonongendi. Kuwo onke amazwi akhe, kuzo zonke izenzo zakhe, ekuthwaleni kwakhe, ngelizwi kuyo yonke into, kufuneka abonise umzekelo wokuthozama okungcwele, kwaye aphathe yonke indawo umfanekiso womfazi weJC Kufuneka azinikele ngokukodwa ekuqapheliseni nabani na. , ingakumbi amadoda, nkqu nabazalwana bakhe, yaye

 

 

(321-325)

 

 

ukuba abonise nokuba abethelene mpela nabantu besini sakhe, ngaphandle kokuba ngoodade wabo abahlala kude naye, angafane ababone, nabazukulwana bezalamane zakhe ezisondeleyo, nokuba ngababanye abantu. Ke wona amakhwenkwe, makangawaginyi nangaphezu kweminyaka elishumi elinambini. Angaze alale kunye nabefundisi, nkqu nonongendi, ngaphandle kokuba kukho imfuneko enkulu, kwaye kube kanye kuphela ekuphumeleleni.

Eyedwa okanye kwinkampani, unongendi akufanele awele imilenze yakhe omnye phezu komnye. Esi siko lisiko lehlabathi, alindilisekanga kunongendi.

 

Musa ukufumana iindwendwe.

Akafanele atyelelwe ngabantu behlabathi, ingakumbi ngomtshato, ngaphandle kokuba oko kwenzeka ngequbuliso, yaye wayengenakukuphepha oko. Unokuhlala ucela uxolo ngokunyanisekileyo nangembeko, uthi: kuchasene nelizwe lethu ukufumana ukutyelelwa ngabantu behlabathi, kuba akuvumelekanga ngokwemithetho yethu kunye nemithetho yethu.

iimbopheleleko, ukufumana amatyelelo, okanye kwanokubuyela amatikiti. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba olu tyelelo alumkholisi kakhulu, kuba kufana nokugcina imbalelwano ethile kunye nehlabathi; efumana iingxoxo nabantu behlabathi, ngamanye amaxesha, ezichasene nezibophelelo zonongendi.

 

Uphawu loonongendi owanyanzeleka ukuba abekho kudliwano-ndlebe oluyingozi, wancediswa waza wayalelwa yiNS

Ndazana nonongendi owathi xa eshiya indawo ahlala kuyo, wahlala nabantu ababetyelelwa. Lo nongendi, eneentloni kakhulu, kwaye ebandezeleka kwisazela sakhe ukuva, kwezi ngxoxo zabantu behlabathi, iintetho ezininzi ezichasene neembopheleleko zakhe, zimelwe kubantu ahlala nabo, ukuba bekungento yanto kuye ukuba sesikhundleni. iincoko zaba bantu behlabathi, nokuba isazela sakhe sasineentloni kakhulu. Wabacenga ukuba bamvumele ukuba aphumle yedwa kwindawo yokuhlala. Kodwa aba bantu baphendula bathi akuyi kuba njalo, kwaye bafuna ukuba ahlale nabo. Lo nongendi wacinga ukuba makathobele, waza wagqiba kwelokuba akubona ukuba akanakwenza ngenye indlela.

Ngenye imini, phakathi kwezinye, kwatyelelwa ngabantu besini nesini. Lo nongendi wayesemsebenzini; yaye njengoko wayengavunyelwanga ukuba amshiye aze aphume endlwini, ubani akanakuchaza indlela incoko yabo eyayiyibangele ngayo intlungu yakhe. Wayengakwazi ukuphakamisa amehlo akhe ngokuzithandela ukuze abajonge.

Elinye inene laqalisa ukuthetha kungekhona ngomKristu, kodwa lithetha ngomhedeni. Lo nongendi kwaba kukhona ezama ukuyiphakamisa intliziyo yakhe kuThixo, ebona ukuba kwakungavumelekanga ukumphendula  , esithi, Nkosi, ndenzele inceba, mandingatshabalali. Lo Thixo wokulunga wamhlangula, yaye ngendlela ekhethekileyo, wathi kuye: “Ntombi yam, ndikho, ndiza kuthetha nawe. Lo nongendi wazifumana etsaleleke ngamandla kuThixo kangangokuba waphulukana nako konke ukuqonda ezindlebeni zomzimba, ngaphandle kokuyeka ukusebenza. Akayazi ukuba incoko yaphela njani. Akazange aphinde abone okanye eve nantoni na ethethwayo, baye barhoxa engakhange aphawule  .

INkosi yethu yenza kwaziwa kulo nongendi ukuba wayenganyanzelekanga ukuba athobele abantu ahlala nabo, nokuba, nakwixesha elizayo, kuyo nayiphi na indlu awayekuyo, xa babefuna ukumgcinela ukuba enze izinto. zenziwe ngokuchaseneyo nezibophelelo zikabani, okanye eziya kubambelela kwimigaqo yehlabathi, umntu makangathobeli, kwaye aqine ekwaleni kwakhe;

ukuba abantu bazingisa, ifanele ifune enye indlu, ekungayi kubakho kuyo esi sidubedube. INkosi isoloko ibanceda abo basondela kuyo, nabanomnqweno wokumkholisa.

 

Indlela yangaphandle yokujonga isifungo sokuvala emhlabeni. Impazamo malunga nesi sibhambathiso.

Ndisenento yokuthetha ngomphandle wesifungo sokuvala.

Andithethi ngento echaphazela ingaphakathi lezibhambathiso, kuba ndijongene nayo ngasentla. Kukho oonongendi abaninzi abakholelwa ukuba abanyanzelekanga ukuba benze isifungo sokuvala, kwaye namanene aliqela ecawa acinga okufanayo. Ndandimazi umntu owayenale mvakalelo. Yayingumbuzo wokuhambahamba ezilalini. Lo mfundisi-ntsapho wandixelela ukuba ndihambe nenkampani. Ndaphendula ngelithi andinakuyenza loo nto ngenxa yesifungo sam. Uphendule ngelithi andinyanzelwanga ukuba kuvalwe njengaye. Ababingeleli abahloniphekileyo bayaqonda ukuba ukugcina isibhambathiso sokuvalelwa, kuyimfuneko ukuba kuluntu kunye nendawo evalelweyo, ukuze abantu behlabathi bangene kuphela xa benziwe ukuba bangene kuyo kwizinto eziyimfuneko; kwaye ukuyithatha ngaloo ndlela, banyanisile.

 

Unongendi akafanele aphume ngokungeyomfuneko.

Unongendi ongenawo umoya wobume bakhe, uya kukholelwa ngokulula ukuba akanakukwazi ukusigcina isibhambathiso sakhe sokuvala, kwaye ngenxa yokuba akasekho ekuhlaleni, uya kukholelwa ukuba sitshitshisiwe. Kodwa ikholwa elilungileyo onomoya wangaphakathi kunye nothando lwezibophelelo zakhe entliziyweni yakhe, nangona engaphandle koluntu lwakhe, uya kwenza konke anako ukugcina izibhambathiso zakhe apho, ngakumbi ezo ze-cloister. Uya kuzikhwebula

 

 

(326-330)

 

 

ukuza nokuhamba, kunye naluphi na utyelelo alubona lungekho mfuneko okanye aluyomfuneko.

 

Kweziphi iimeko oonongendi banokuphuma.

Le nto ndiyibona kuThixo. Oonongendi banokuphuma ngokusemthethweni xa kuthethwa ngokusondela kwiMithendeleko, nokuba kukude okanye kufutshane, okanye kukutshintsha abavumayo, xa bengenantembelo kulowo banayo. Ngokunjalo, banokuphuma baye konelisa umthetho kamama wethu iCawe eNgcwele, ngokuncedisa kwiDini eliNgcwele leMisa. Kule meko, unongendi olungileyo uya kuhamba ngqo endleleni yakhe, esoloko ejonge isibhambathiso sakhe sokugqibela. Emva kokuva uMthendeleko nokuphumeza imbopheleleko yakhe, uya kubuyela ngqo ekhayeni lakhe, ngaphandle kokujikeleza apha naphaya. Ngokuchaseneyo noko, unongendi ochithiweyo, olibele isibhambathiso sakhe sokuvalwa, uya kwiMisa eNgcwele, kwaye emva kokuba eyivile, akayi kuba nayo enye inkathalo ngaphandle kokuhambahamba kunye nokutyelela kwihlabathi. Uya kutya kube kanye kwenye indlu, kwaye ngelinye ixesha kwenye. Ndibona phambi koThixo ukuba lo nongendi wenza okubi ngakumbi kunokulunga, kwaye angenza ngcono ukuhlala ekhaya ukuze eve iMisa eNgcwele. Kum kubonakala ngathi, ngokubona kwam kuThixo, oonongendi abanyanzelekanga ukuba baye kumaVespers, okanye kuSindiso, naxa sele besondele eCaweni, kwaye banyanzelekile ukuba bahlale bodwa kwaye bazigcine bebodwa. bafezekise umnqweno wabo. Ukuba ihlabathi alakheki ngenxa yalo, kwaye liyabangcikiva ngenxa yalo, mabaphendule ukuba bamanyene neCawe ngemithandazo yabo, kodwa isibhambathiso sabo se-cloister siyabathintela ukuba baphume kwaye babanikeze ukuba baye kuyo. Ndibona nokuba ngeentsuku zeveki xa iMisa eNgcwele ingeyomyalelo,

Kuba oonongendi abahlanganiswe ukuze bafumane ubomi, kwaye abangenako ukuhlawula umkhonzi, banokuphuma ngokusemthethweni kuzo zonke izinto eziyimfuneko ebomini, kunye nazo zonke ezinye iimfuno. Oonongendi basengaphuma baye kunika ingxelo kubaphathi babo ngaphakathi, kwaye bafumanise ukuba bafanele baziphathe njani ngokunxulumene nezibophelelo zabo. Ukuba umphathi ufungile (1), ngokuqinisekileyo akufanele umcele imvume, okanye umgqale njengomphathi wakhe. Oonongendi basengaphuma baye kubona oodade babo ekuhlaleni, bafumanise ukuba bayasilela na, ngokomoya okanye ngokwasemoyeni, baze babancede kwiimfuno zabo. Oonongendi abahlala kwiindawo ezixineneyo kwaye abanagadi, unokuphuma uyokufumana umoya omtsha kwezona gadi zikufutshane nezifihlakeleyo; kodwa kufuneka bakhethe ixesha apho kungekho mntu, ingakumbi amadoda.

(1) Ukwenza isifungo sibe yimfuneko kwiNdibano.

Owona msebenzi umkholisayo uThixo onokuwenza ngoonongendi abanyanzelekileyo ukuba baziphilise kukufundisa abantwana abancinane.

Koonongendi abanyanzelekileyo ukuba baziphilise, ndibona kuThixo ukuba kuyo yonke imisebenzi abanokuyenza, owona mkholise kakhulu kuThixo kukufundisa abantwana abancinane. UThixo uya kulufumana uzuko lwakhe nosindiso lwaba nongendi balungileyo; kwaye ukuba ibingumbuzo wokuvuma ukholo lomntu emngciphekweni wobomi bakhe, umntu ebeya kuwabona aba nongendi beqinile okwelitye eliphakathi kwamaza olwandle.Ndibona kuThixo ukuba oonongendi bayakwazi ukuyala namakhwenkwe amancinci. njengamantombazana amancinane, kwaye ubafundise iinyaniso eziziintloko zokholo, ukubenza bakwazi ukwenza umthendeleko wabo wokuqala. Akufunekanga babafundise ukufunda nokubhala, kodwa makabafundise ikatekizim kuphela.

Ukuba kukho amadoda okanye amabhinqa angaphangeliyo asondele ngokwaneleyo kubo anesikolo, ayefanele afundise amantombazana kuphela.

 

Unongendi umele azalisekise zonke iimbopheleleko zakhe ngenxa yothando.

Kwakhona kuyimfuneko ukuba oonongendi bashiye nantoni na kwiimbopheleleko zabo eziyintloko, kwaye ngokukodwa ezo zisemthethweni, ngaphandle kokuba iCawa iyabakhupha kubo. INkosi yethu ithi kwiVangeli abo bamthandayo ngabo kanye baya kuyigcina imiyalelo yakhe. Ngokungathandabuzekiyo iNkosi elungileyo ijonga kuphela uthando ngokukodwa; luthando olwenza yonke into yenze kwaye yenze yonke into. Uthando alunamsebenzi, luhlala luzingisa ngaphandle kokuba uthi: Kwanele. Kuya kubakho kuphela abanyanisekileyo, abafazi beJC abaya kuyithanda ngolu hlobo; abaya kuyigcina imiyalelo engcwele kaThixo; abaya kuthambekela ngentliziyo yabo yonke ukugcina konke abanako kwiimbophelelo zabo, kwaye ngubani oya kuzingisa ngothando lwabo lokumthanda ngakumbi nangakumbi: ngenxa yokuba umfazi othembekileyo weJC,

 

UThixo uzixolela ngokulula iziphoso zobuthathaka bomphefumlo omthandayo.

Asikuko ukuba abo bathanda ngokwenene abenzi iimpazamo: ewe, bayazenza. Uthando alumenzi umntu angabi nasiphako, ngakumbi kula maxesha apho indlela yesidima inzima kakhulu kwaye amanyathelo amtyibilizi. Kodwa ukuba uyawa, mfazi onyulu ka-J. Lo Thixo wokulunga uyabazi ubuthathaka bethu nobulwelwe bethu, kwaye uyazi ukuba asinakwenza nto ngaphandle kobabalo lwakhe. Akayi kuphoswa;

 

 

 

(331-335)

 

 

ke ngoko masizame ukuhambelana nayo kwaye sithembeke kuyo.

 

Oko kwakubhalwe nguDade ngemfezeko kuvela kuThixo. Isibophelelo sokuhambelana nobabalo kunye nokuzabalazela ukugqibelela.

Ukuba bendibhalile ngasentla kwizibhambathiso zeemonastic ekugqibeleleni kwazo, andinakukwazi ukuzikhupha; ayiphumi kum. Kholelwa into endiyibonayo kuThixo malunga nobabalo, izenzo, izidima zobuKristu nezenkolo; kuba  ndibona kuThixo ukuba, njengoko egqibelele ngokungenasiphelo, zonke iinceba nezimilo zijolise ekusiziseni kwimfezeko, kwaye ndibona ngokuqhwanyaza kweliso ukuba yonke into ephuma kwangoko kuThixo igqibelele. Ndikwabona kuThixo ukuba kukho ubabalo olufuna imfezeko enkulu kunabanye. Sonke sinyanzelekile ukuba sihambelane nobabalo esilunikwe nguThixo. Aniyikwambatha ingqibelelo njengengubo; yindlela emxinwa kakhulu kwaye inzima kakhulu. Senza ukuwa ezininzi, kodwa

Kuya kufuneka uphakame kwaye ungawushiyi umendo wemfezeko ngenxa yeempazamo kunye nokuwa.

 

Le mithetho yemfezeko ayibakhathaleli oonongendi behlabathi. Ihambo yabo embi.

Endikubhalileyo apha ngasentla kuchaphazela ngokukhethekileyo oonongendi abalungileyo abanosindiso lwabo ezintliziyweni zabo nabaya kuthi ngobabalo lukaThixo, bakuqwalasele konke abanako kwiimbophelelo zelizwe labo; kodwa loo nto ayibakhathaleli oonongendi behlabathi. Ndibabiza ngolo hlobo, ngenxa yokuba bebaleka endleleni ephangaleleyo yehlabathi, belahla zonke izibhambathiso zabo nezibophelelo zabo, bekhohlisana, besithi, bengasekho phakathi kwabo, abasenamsebenzi nanto.

Iindidi ezahlukeneyo zoonongendi abangakholwayo. Oko bakuko emehlweni kaThixo.

Ndisabona kuThixo abanye oonongendi, kwanabaninzi ngakumbi, abathi, bethabathe imvelaphi ethile, bazingisa ekubeni bangabi babi kangako, bangazihombisi ngokugqithiseleyo, nabangabehlabathi njengabaphuma kubo. kodwa nangona kunjalo baxelisa oonongendi ababi ngaphezu kwabalungileyo. Ndisabona kuThixo ukuba eyona nto imbi ngabo bafungileyo nabatshatileyo. Bajongwe phambi koThixo naphambi kwabantu njengezilo ezingamasikizi. Kusekho nabanye oonongendi abaliqela abangazange bafunge, abangatshatanga, kodwa abagqwesileyo, abanekratshi nabathanda ihlabathi kangangokuba uThixo ubathiyile yaye ubabeka kuluhlu lwabo bazifica ngengqiqo yabo engafanelekanga.

Kuba oonongendi ababambe umbindi phakathi kokulungileyo nokubi, bangabo, ngokungaguquguquki kwabo, ngamanye amaxesha baba kuThixo, ngamanye amaxesha bosathana. Baphethuka izihlandlo ezininzi, yaye xa beyibona loo nto, bazama ukuvuka kwakhona ngoncedo lobabalo. Kodwa amahlazo banika

ziyingozi kakhulu kwaye ziyingozi kubo bonke oonongendi ngaphandle koonongendi abalungileyo nabachanekileyo. Eli ligama abalinikwa nguThixo. Aba nongendi balungileyo bazabalazela imfezeko abayihloli indlela abanye abenza ngayo; baphulaphula kuphela uThixo nezazela zabo. Kodwa bona oonongendi abangafezekanga okanye ababi, ndiyabona ukuba umtyholi ubabekela imigibe aze abanike isihendo sokucinga ngehambo embi yabanye oonongendi, ngokubenza beve: Unongendi onjalo nomnye onjalo benza kakuhle oku, benzeni. kuhle ukuba. Ngokomzekelo, iinkampani zehlabathi, iincoko nabantu behlabathi, ukuthenga nokutyelela izinto ezingenamsebenzi, ndiya kuthini ekugqibeleni? ezinye iziphoso ezilikhulu, zisebenza njengemizekelo emibi komnye nomnye, yaye zithi: Ekubeni oonongendi benza kakuhle aba

izinto, ndiyakwazi ukuzenza. Yiyo ke le indlela abathetha ngayo omnye nomnye ngobu bubi obusasazeka njengesibetho. Ububi obuninzi buyenzeka kuphela ngenxa yokuba sisilela ukungena kuthi kwaye sibonakalise ubume bengqondo yethu.

 

Umseki ongcwele ubonakala kunongendi wocwangco lwakhe. Isifundo amnika sona.

Apha ndibalisa oko kwenzeka kunongendi osaphila, ngoxa wayekwindawo ahlala kuyo. Ngenye imini umseki wakhe ongcwele wabonakala kuye waza wazibonakalisa kuye. Ithwalwe luvuyo nentuthuzelo, iguqa ngamadolo ize iqalise ukuthi kuye: Hayi! ubawo, ah! bawo ndicela undixelele into ngemfundo yam. Wamphendula lo ungcwele ulungileyo, wathi, Nina nithi ndinguyihlo, niyalungisa, kuba ndinguye. Ngena kuwe, ubone kwaye ucinge ukuba ungumntwana wam na. Ngoko nangoko wathi shwaka.

Ngelo xesha unongendi wacela kuThixo ubabalo lokwazi imeko yesazela sakhe. Emva koko wafumana ukukhanya kwangaphakathi okwamenza wafumanisa iimpazamo ezininzi kwizibhambathiso zakhe, kulawulo lwakhe nakuzo zonke izibophelelo zakhe. Kwangaxeshanye oku kukhanya kwamenza wayibona imeko yemfezeko apho wayekuyo

azame ukufikelela ubungcwele bemeko yakhe. Wabona nendlela awayekude ngayo kuyo ngeempazamo zakhe.

 

INQAKU V.

Ezinye iinkcukacha ngentlungu yeNkosi yethu uYesu Krestu kuMyezo weMinquma, kunye novuko lwakhe. Iluncedo ekuphumleni imiphefumlo kwi Purgatory. Isilumkiso sokuba uDade woZalo ufumana kwiNkosi yethu kunye neNtombi Enyulu.

 

§. I.

Iimeko zentlungu ye-JC Iimbangela zeentlungu zakhe. Ubukhulu bothando lwakhe emadodeni.

 

Isimo sangaphakathi se-JC ngexesha lobomi bakhe bokufa kunye nangexesha lokuthanda kwakhe.

Ndinika ingxelo apha into eyandixelela yona iNkosi yethu malunga neengongoma ezininzi zothando lwayo olungcwele. INkosi yethu indixelela ukuba kubo bonke ubomi bakhe basemhlabeni ukucaca ngonaphakade kobuthixo bakhe, njengoThixo, watyhilwa waza wadityaniswa nobuntu bakhe obungcwele, njengomntu; ukuze, njengoThixo nomntu, akunandiphe ngaphakathi kwakhe, ngaphandle kokubabengezela ngaphandle, yaye phezu kweNtaba yeTabhore wavumela kuphela ukuba kubonakale imitha yayo engento. Kodwa ngemihla yokutshiseka kwakhe, ukusukela kwisidlo sokugqibela kude kube sekuvukeni komzimba wakhe ongcwele, iNkosi yethu yahluthwa, njengendoda, koku kucaca kobuthixo kobuThixo bayo.

INkosi yethu yathi kum: “Yatsalwa njengengwevu emnyama phezu kwengqondo yam naphezu kokuqonda kwam kangangokuba umphefumlo wam othandekayo waba ngathi ungqongwe kwaye ugqunyiwe: wayengasaboni nto ngaphandle komnqamlezo neentlungu zomphefumlo wam; kodwa ngokukodwa, eyona ntuthumbo inkulu awayecinezeleke ngayo yayibubunzima benani nobukhulu bolwaphulo-mthetho olwenziweyo nolwenziwa ukususela ekuqaleni kwehlabathi kude kube sekupheleni kweenkulungwane, ezathi zathululwa phezu kwakhe; nobulungisa bukaThixo ubawo, owafuna ukuba bahlawulelwe ngegazi likaThixo. Yilonto eyandenza ndatyhala oku nje

Isikhalazo, sisondela kuMyezo weMinquma: Umphefumlo wam udakumbile ukusa ekufeni. »

 

Umbono wokuqala wendawo apho iNkosi yethu yabandezeleka kwintlungu yayo ekhohlakeleyo. Ubume bomzimba wakhe obubhalwe emhlabeni.

Ndazifumana ngenye imini, okwesibini, ndikuMyezo weMinquma, kanye kuloo ndawo iNkosi yethu yafumana kuyo iintlungu ezibuhlungu. Ukuqala kwam ukubona le ndawo, iNkosi yethu ayizange ibonakale kum. Ndandindedwa; kanti ndabona, ekukhanyeni kukaThixo, ukuba yayiyindawo apho uMsindisi wam waye wabandezeleka kakhulu, kwaye oku koko ndakubonayo. Intelekelelo eyenziwa ngumzimba ongcwele kaYesu kwindawo awayeguqe kuyo, yehla kancinane apho, xa iNkosi yethu yabuthoba ubuso bayo obungcwele emhlabeni. Ndabona apho umfanekiso wakhe ongcwele oshicilelweyo, iingalo zakhe namagxa akhe, kunye nokumila kwe

umzimba phezu komhlaba. Ndabona ukuba ngokubila kwegazi lakhe elixabisekileyo, elaligqobhozela ingubo yakhe, indawo awayekuyo yayibomvu, yaye lo mhlaba wawuthabathe umbala othile, ngokungathi wawuxovulwe wanyathelwa ngolu hlobo.

igazi elinqabileyo. Kwakukho iindawo ezazizele ligazi ngakumbi kunenye, yaye ngokukodwa indawo awayequbuda kuyo ubuso bakhe obungcwele; kwaye sinokukholelwa ukuba uMsindisi wethu ongcwele wayelila iinyembezi zegazi. Apho umqukumbelo wesambatho sakhe wawunxitywe, iinyembezi ezinkulu zegazi zazinokubonwa zibambene kwaye zijiyile emhlabeni, nowawuwile empahleni yakhe. Le yinto endayibonayo okokuqala, ngorhatya lwangoLwesine oNgcwele.

 

Umbono wesibini wendawo enye. INkosi yethu ibonakala kuye ize imcacisele intsingiselo yomthandazo awawubhekisa kuYise.

Ngexesha elithile emva kokuba ndikubonile oko ndisandula ukukuthetha, njengoko ndandidla ngokubukela ubusuku bangoLwesine oMkhulu, kwaye ndibudlulisa phantse bumhlophe phambi kweSakramente eSikelelekileyo, ngembeko yothando olungcwele loMsindisi wethu ongcwele, ndicamngca ngobo busuku ngeemfihlelo ezilusizi. yeNkosi yethu, ndacinga ngentlungu yakhe kuMyezo weMinquma. Ngephanyazo ndazifumana ndikuloo ndawo ndandikhe ndayibona ngaphambili ngomoya weNkosi. Ndabona kwaloo ndawo ndandiyibonile, yaye ndandixelelwe ukuba kulapho iNkosi Yethu yabandezeleka khona.

intlungu yakhe engcwele. Kwangaxeshanye, iNkosi Yethu yabonakala isondele kakhulu kum, yaza yathi kum: “Mntwana wam, le yindawo endabandezeleka kuyo ngenxa yothando lwakho nothando loluntu lonke. Ndalwa kwaye ndandindedwa ukulwa nazo zonke iintshaba zam.

Ndifuna ukunifundisa ukuba okokuqala endaqubuda phambi kobungangamsha bukaThixo ubawo, yayikukucela ubabalo ngovakalelo nangentshukumo yobuntu bam obungcwele obuzibhaqe bugutyungelwe macala onke. Kwesi sithuba sithotyiweyo ndenjenje ukumela ubungangamsha obungcwele bukaThixo, ndisithi, Bawo, ukuba kunokwenzeka, mayidlule le ndebe yengcikivo nehlazo, ndingayiselanga. Kodwa ngoko nangoko uthando lwam ngohlanga loluntu, olunamandla ngakumbi kunababulali kunye nabantu bam ukundenza ndife, ngoko nangoko olu thando lukaThixo, olungunaphakade nolungenasiphelo, lundiphendula kumanyano lwentando engcwele kabawo, ukuba aluzange luyenze. wayefuna, ukuba wayechasile, ukuba uya koyisa uloyiso, nokuba nguye oya koyisa ukufa, naphezu kokufa komnqamlezo. Ndaphendula ndathi: “Tata!

 

Umthandazo wokuqala kaJC

Umthandazo wam wokuqala, isiphumo sendalo, wawubangelwa kukubona inkanziso namasikizi enziwa kwiindawo ezingcwele, kuzo zonke iingcwele ezingcwele, nazo zonke izinto ezihlambela iimfihlelo ezingcwele, kwakhona nasemehlweni abantu bam abanyuliweyo, endithe ndaba ngabo. wayetsale phakathi kwabahedeni namabharbhari,  kwaye lowo wayenguye kanye, phakathi kwazo zonke izidalwa zam, wanyula waza wazinyulela ukuba andibethelele njengesikhohlakali nesela; sekunjalo wayezihlanganise naye zonke izidalwa zam, abalungiseleli bam, ababingeleli, iimonki noonongendi bam, bonke abo bathi ngezibhambathiso ezinzulu baba ngabantu bam abaziintanda nabakholekileyo, yaye abaninzi babo bathi kamva bandinikela umva, baza bangcatsha njengomnye wabapostile bam. , Judas... Ah! Bantu bam, yini na ukuba nindingcatshe ngolu hlobo? Ukuba ubuncinci khange uphulukane  neyakho umphefumlo! Ndiya kufuna  uncedo kweliphi na icala?

kunye noYudas ukuba andingcatshe. Onke la mashwangusha ahlangeneyo anjengomsinga ondirhuqayo, undintywilisele phambi kobungangamsha nobulungisa bukaThixo ubawo. »

 

Ububele beNkosi yethu ngaBapostile bayo.

INkosi yethu yathi kum: “Ndavuka okwesihlandlo sokuqala ukuze ndiye kubavuselela abapostile bam ababelele. Uthando endandinalo entliziyweni yam kubo nakubo bonke abefundisi bam beCawa entsha aluzange lundivumele ukuba ndibalahle. Emva kokuba ndibavuse ngomzimba nangomphefumlo, ndabuyela emthandazweni wam, apho ndasiqwalasela isiphoso esenziwe kuThixo ubawo, ngenxa yobuninzi nobukhulu bobugwenxa endiye ndabubamba ndaza ndanikela isibambiso. njengoThixo, ubungangamsha bukaThixo ubawo, owavutha ngumsindo, waza wabandezeleka njengomntu, iintuthumbo, iintlungu, imbubhiso, nokufa, oko kwakufanelwe zizono zabantu bam.

 

Umthandazo wesibini kaJC

Ndabuya ndaqubuda, ndathi, Bawo, ngokuba kukholekile kuwe ukuba ndiyisele le ndebe, ndiyavuma; Mayenziwe intando yakho, ingabi eyam. INkosi yethu ibuya okwesibini ukuze ibavuse abapostile bayo, kodwa ibavusa nje ingakhange ithethe nelizwi kubo, ize ke ibuyele emthandazweni wayo.

 

UJC umfundisi olungileyo. Ubakhathalele abapostile bakhe. Umzekelo uwunika abefundisi beCawa yakhe.

Yatsho iNkosi kum, yathi, Ndim umalusi wenyaniso nolungileyo; Andizange ndizilahle iigusha zam. » Yandula ke iNkosi yethu yandijonga, yathi: « Abapostile bam bonganyelwe bubunzulu bendalo ebandezelekileyo, kwaye bubenza batshone kuhlobo lokozela.

Bamele kum abefundisi abangamagwala, abadikidiki, besindwa luthando nothando abanalo kubo. Balala ngenxa yobugwala, baze balibale ngenyameko nokuphaphela abafanele babe nako kwimihlambi yabo. Uyawubona na umzekelo endiwunikelayo kubo ngokuya kubavusa abapostile bam, abalele kubuthongo bemvelo kuphela, nakubulwelwe; uyayibona na indlela endibajonga ngayo, nendlela endibathanda ngayo ndilibala konke ukudinwa kwam kunye nayo yonke intlungu yam, kwaye oku kuphakathi kokubila kwam kwegazi, okundibeka ebuthakathakeni nasekuphelelweni amandla, kwaye mna

kuncitshiswe phantse kwintlungu? Nangona kunjalo, ngaphandle kobuntu bam obungcwele, uthando lwam luyandithwala kwaye lundenza ndithathe isinyathelo sokuya kubo.

 

Indlela ubabalo olusebenza ngayo emphefumlweni. I-stroke yokuqala yobabalo evusa imiphefumlo inamandla kunesibini.

Kodwa qaphela into enye apha, iNkosi yethu iyandixelela, kwaye ufunde ukuba yintoni na isipho sobabalo. Ukuqala kwam ukuya kubavusa, ndaboyikisa. Ndazibuyisela umva kancinci kwi rigor yam

» uthando, ingakumbi lowo ndandimnyule ukuba abe yintloko yeBandla lam; Ndamgubungela ngokudideka, kwanabanye abapostile, ndaza ndathi kuye: Yintoni! Petros, ulele na? Aninako na ukulinda nam nexa elinye? Kwangaxeshanye, ngelizwi lam ndamenza weva ngaphakathi kwakhe: Yintoni! Anazi na, Petros, ukuba uMtyholi ufuna ukuniqwenga, anihluze njengokuba ehluza ingqolowa? Sendinilumkisile. Kodwa ntoni! uyalala! Ndiyaphinda ndiyanilumkisa: Lindani nithandaze, hleze niwe ekuhendweni nakwimigibe kaSathana. Musa ukuxhomekeka kwisiqu sakho. Ndiyakulumkisa kwakhona. Ingqondo iyakhawuleza, kwaye indalo ikhubazekile kwaye ibuthathaka. INkosi yethu indixelela ukuba ithetha okufanayo nakwabanye abapostile. “Niyabona na ngoku, iqhubeka iNkosi yethu, indlela olusebenza ngayo ubabalo, ngokomzekelo endininika wona ngabapostile bam abaleleyo endaweni yokulinda nokuthandaza? Xa ndivusa abalindi bakwaSirayeli, abalele ngokomoya ebuthongweni bemiphefumlo yabo, ubabalo lwam aluphazami ukuza ukubavusa, ukuze beve ukuba iintshaba zibasukela, nokubenza babone iingozi abajamelana nazo. , ziingozi ezibasongelayo, nendlela abamele ukuyilinda ngayo imihlambi yabo, abaya kuphendula ngayo; Ekugqibeleni, olu babalo luyoyikisa kwaye luvuselela uloyiko: luqala kwakhona, uyaduduma, aze emva koko arhoxe ukuze abone ukuba abefundisi baza kulisebenzisa kusini na icebiso lakhe. Ukuba babuyela ebuthongweni, ubavusa kuphela, aze azazise ezingqondweni nasezintliziyweni zabo, aze arhoxe ngoko nangoko, engakhange aphinde aphinde aphinde aphinde acinge. »

Ngokwalo mzekelo, nantsi into eyathethwa yiNkosi yethu kum kwakhona: “Kholwa, mntwana wam, ukuba inxeba lokuqala lobabalo endilinika umphefumlo ukuze liguqulwe, linezimvo kunye neentshukumo ezinamandla ngakumbi kunokwesibini  . Xa lo mphefumlo ungasithabathi ithuba lesilumkiso sokuqala kwaye ngelishwa ubuyela ebugwenxeni bawo obuqhelekileyo, ubabalo luya kubanda ngakuwo, luvele luzibonakalise kuwo, luwuvuse umoya wawo, luwenze ukuba uzibone iziphoso osele uwe kuzo. ize ke, ngaphandle kokoyika okanye ukunkwantya, imke, kwaye le yindlela endalandela ngayo kubapostile bam. Kokwesibini ndifikile kubo khange ndithethe nelimdaka kubo. Ndivele ndazibonakalisa kubo ndabavusa, ndakhawuleza ndabuyela emthandazweni wam.  »

 

Umthandazo wesithathu kaJC Ubukhulu bentlungu yakhe ebangelwa kwelinye icala ngobukhulu besono sikaThixo, kwaye kwelinye, linani elincinci laboni abaya kuzuza ngokufa kwam.

INkosi yethu yathi kum: “Ndaqubuda okwesithathu phambi kobungangamsha bukaThixo ubawo, ndaza ndamcela ubabalo nenceba kulo lonke uluntu, ndisithi kuye: Bawo Ongcwele, Bawo onobulungisa, Bawo othandekayo, kuba uthando lwakho lufuna. sindisa lonke uluntu, ndiyayifuna nam. Makwenziwe ubungcwele bakho; Ndifuna yonke into oyifunayo, kuba intando yakho engcwele yeyam, yaye sibanye. Nantsi into eyathethwa yiNkosi yethu: “Nali elona xesha libuhlungu emphefumlweni wam. Kuwo onke macala yawela phezu kwayo umsinga onamandla, obangelwe luthando lwam kunye nobulungisa bukaThixo ubawo. Ndazibona sele ndiginywe macala onke, ndingafumananga nomzuzu wokuthuthuzela. Ndabona ubulungisa bukaThixo ubawo, ecatshukiswa ngabo bonke ububi boluntu, ababefuna impindezelo nokwaneliseka kubo. Isikhubekiso sikaThixo esinyukele etroneni yobungangamsha obuphakamileyo bukabawo, sandenza ndangcangcazela ndaza ndangcangcazela kuzo zonke iindawo zobuntu bam obungcwele; yaza intliziyo yam, ebubini nasekungcungcuthekeni okungako, yatyhutyha oko kwakusisikhubekiso soThixo ongenasiphelo” kuzo zonke iimfezeko zakhe ezingcwele. »

 

Abantu neengelosi abasayi kuze baqonde ukuba yintoni na isikhubekiso sikaThixo. NguJC kuphela owayiqondayo.

Lo Msindisi ungcwele, endijongile elusizi kakhulu, wathi kum: “Uyayazi na, mntwana wam, uyasazi na ukuba siyintoni na isikreqo sikaThixo? Hayi, awukwenzi  , kwaye awusoze. Iiserafi eziphakamileyo aziyi kukwazi, kwaye azinakuze zikwazi ukuqonda ukuba ulwaphulo-mthetho olubi kangakanani na  .

isikhubekiso sikaThixo. Ukuze ubani aqonde olu lwaphulo-mthetho aze alwazi, kwakuya kufuneka aqonde aze amazi uThixo ngokwakhe; into engenakwenzeka, eya kuba kubo bonke abadaliweyo ngonaphakade. NguThixo kuphela ozaziyo, oziqondayo kuzo zonke iimpawu zakhe nakwingqibelelo yakhe yobuThixo  .

Ke mna, mntwana wam, ndiyasazi isikhubekiso sikaThixo; ingena entliziyweni yam, kwaye kubonakala ngathi intlungu iyahlula kubini, ekuboneni kwelinye icala lengqumbo eyenziwa kuThixo ubawo, kwaye kwelinye, imeko eyoyikekayo yaboni, abo aya kuthi ngabo. babe bambalwa kakhulu abaya kufuna ukuthabatha ithuba lentlawulelo yam, kwiinceba zam nazo zonke iimbandezelo zam, kwaye kwesi sihlwele soyikeka sabachasiweyo abaya kuba ngabalaliweyo ngonaphakade, ngenxa yokuba bengathembekanga kubabalo lwam kuphela, kodwa nangenxa yokholo. edelile ngokwaphula imithetho yam nemimiselo yam, kwaye ngubani na oya kuzinikela ngokwanokwaphula umthetho, ngo

Iminqweno evuthayo yentliziyo kaYesu efuna kwaye ecela uYise ukuba asindise abantu bonke.

Bawo olilungisa! umntu kufuneka abandezeleke kakhulu kwaye ngokungenamsebenzi ngenxa yemiphefumlo emininzi! Owu Bawo othandekayo! uthando lwam luyabafuna bonke, kodwa abalufuni; uthando lwam lubabiza bonke, kodwa bazivale iindlebe, kwaye abaphenduli kwimfesane yentliziyo yam kunye nothando lwam olubaleka emva kwabo, lubacenga ukuba beze kum kwaye basindiswe; basuka babaleka phambi kwam, bandinikela ikhosi, bandigiba. Owu Bawo, uzele zinceba! NdinguThixo onjengawe; Bonani ukuba ubugwenxa babo bundifikele kangakanani na; yibone intlungu yam! Nam ndingumntu onjengabo, kwaye ndinemfesane ngabo. Ndiyintloko yoluntu, kwaye ndiziva entliziyweni yam zonke iintlungu kunye nawo onke amashwa amalungu am onke. »

 

Iintlungu ezibukhali zikaJC Ukubila kwakhe kwegazi, intlungu yakhe.

INkosi yethu yaqhubeka ngolu hlobo: Njengoko iintlungu zandicinezela macala onke ngogonyamelo olukhulu, ukubila kwam kwegazi kwaqala kwakhona ukufana phantse ngawo onke amaxesha. Ubuntu bam obungcwele bawela kubuthathaka, iintsilelo kunye nokonakala okufayo; umzimba wam wonke ububebezela; kwabonakala kum ukuba ubuntu bam obungcwele buza kusilela; kwaye intlungu engaka ngeyandikhokelela ekufeni, ukuba ixesha lam lalifikile. Ukulwa kwam ndedwa; Ndalwa nam ngokwam, ngokubathanda kwam bonke aboni, ngokukodwa aboni abaguqukayo, nakubo bonke abanyulwa bam. Ndaqubuda, ubuso bam bungcwele bujonge emhlabeni, ndaza ndahlamba kumbilo wam wegazi. Umzimba wam wawusindwa bubuthathaka nobuthathaka. Uthando lwam belufuna ukundivisa ubuhlungu obubuhlungu endingakwaziyo ukuziphakamisa phantsi, ndishukumise amalungu am, ndingaphakamisi nentloko, owubonayo uchuku, ingathi ndivuka emthandazweni. »

 

Ngentlungu yakhe, uJC uphendukela kuYise.

Emva koko lo Msindisi ungcwele wathi kum: “Xa ndazibona sele ndikwincam zokugqibela zengqaqambo zam, kwanwenwela emathangeni am onke,  intliziyo yam yayiqaqamba ziintlungu nothando, ukukhefuzela kwam kwakusiba buthathaka ngamaxesha athile, ndasabela kwintliziyo yam. Wathi uYise kuye, Bawo, ndenzele inceba; ubone ukuba azikho na iintlungu ezifana nezam. Ndifuna nantoni na oyifunayo, Owu Bawo wam! kodwa bona umvandedwa weentlungu zam. Ndintywiliselwe kulwandle lweembandezelo namaxhala. Libone igazi lam elithe gqolo phezu kwempahla yam nasemhlabeni: amandla am andishiyile, umzimba wam wonke ukwimeko yokungaphumeleli ebonakala indinciphisa ekufeni.  »

 

UYise umthumelela iingelosi ukuba ziye kumthuthuzela. Isifundo kwabo babandezelekileyo.

INkosi yethu iguqukela kum, yathi kum, "Apha ndinika umzekelo omkhulu wemfuneko yokubhenela kuThixo kwiimbandezelo ezinkulu kunye neembandezelo zobomi, kunye neentlungu zokufa, kwaye ucele uncedo kuye. Osukuba ethandaza uya kuthuthuzeleka, njengokuba nam ndavela kuBawo. Kwakamsinya nje ndakuba ndiwugqibile umthandazo wam, kwehla ezulwini ngokomyalelo kaBawo, izithunywa zezulu ezininzi eza kundithuthuzela ngenxa yokubandezeleka kwam. Ezi ngelosi zandiphakamisa emhlabeni, apho ndandincanyathiselwe ligazi lam elalingumkhenkce. Baye bandibamba ezingalweni zabo bandilalisa esifubeni sabo. Amalungu am,

yonke iingqele kunye nokuqina, yaqala ukuphinda ishukume kancinci, kwaye amandla am abuyela kancinci kancinci. Ndabona ngeenxa zonke kum izithunywa zezulu ezininzi, awazithumayo uBawo, ukuba zize kundithuthuzela ekubandezelekeni kwam;

 

Intetho yeengelosi kuJC

U-JC emva kobuhlungu bakhe, ubuyisela amandla akhe kunye nobuhle bakhe. Kubonakala ngathi akukho mkhondo wokubila kwakhe okunegazi.

Yatsho iNkosi kum ukuthi: “Akuba ebuyile amandla am, ndakuba ndiphinde ndafumana amandla amatsha, ndaguqa ndaza ndazikhulula, ndayame kancinane kwisithunywa sezulu esasindixhasa. iintunja ziye zaqiniswa, igazi lam lijikeleza ngokwendlela eqhelekileyo yendalo. Le ngelosi ilungileyo, ngelaphu elimhlophe, yosula ubuso bam obungcwele, izandla zam neempahla zam, ukuze ndiphinde ndibufumane ubuhle bam bokuqala bendalo, amandla am kunye nokomelela kwam. Kwangaxeshanye iimpahla zam zazinombala ofanayo nowangaphambili, kangangokuba intloko yam, namalungu am, nempahla yam ayizange ibe nalo naliphi na ibala legazi lam elixabisekileyo.

 

Ubuhlungu bukaJC kunye namandla awaphinda awafumane emva koko. Impembelelo yothando lwakhe olukhulu emadodeni.

Uthando lwam lokubandezeleka ngakumbi ngenxa yamadoda lwalundihluthe onke amandla am endalo, lwaze lwancipha ndangabi nto yanto ngenxa yentlungu elusizi, eyayibandezeleke bubuntu bam obungcwele. Intetho eyanikelwa ziingelosi ngolu thando lunye ayizange indifundise into entsha. Mna ndikwazile oko kwasephakadeni; Zonke izinto ndizibonile, ndaza ndazi kuBawo, kwimimiselo yakhe engunaphakade; kodwa intliziyo yam yaba nolwaneliseko olukhulu ekuveni ngothando lobuthixo kunye nongcikivo lomphefumlo wam ongcwele, nangaphezu kwaseTabhore ekwenziweni kumila kumbi kwam. UMoses noEliye, ababeze kundivelela, ukuze bandizukise ngakumbi, abazange bathethe nto kum ngaphandle kweentlombo ezininzi zosizi lwam. Ngokukwanjalo izithunywa zam zandifanekisela ngokuthetha kwazo, nozuko olo, aya kulwamkela uBawo. Oku kuzondelela uzuko lukaBawo, endimthanda ngako kwasephakadeni, kunjengomlilo otshisayo, osentliziyweni yam, ongasoze uphele. Kwa olo thando lwawabuyisela onke amandla am obuntu; + yaye, emva kokuzihlutha izinto zonke kum, wandibuyisela zonke izinto, waza wandibuyisela esandleni sobukumkani bam. Intliziyo yam ibivutha ngumlilo kulento

umlilo otshisayo, otshisayo. Yonke into eyathi qatha engqondweni yam ziimbandezelo, ukuthotywa, ukuxakwa, izabhokhwe, isithsaba sameva, izikhonkwane, ekugqibeleni umnqamlezo nokufa. Ixhama elitshiswe ngokugqithisileyo kwaye litshiswa lunxano, alibaleki ngamandla ukuya emithonjeni, kangangokuba intliziyo yam, inxanelwe umnqweno wokwanelisa uzuko lukaThixo uBawo nosindiso lwemiphefumlo, yabalekela ekufeni komnqamlezo.

 

Ngawaphi amandla i-JC aphakama ukuya ekuthuthunjisweni nasekufeni. Unxano lwakhe olubangelwa luthando lokusindiswa kwemiphefumlo.

» Ndishukunyiswa leli langatye litsha lothando lwam, ndaphakama endaweni yomthandazo wam, njengengonyama ephakama ibaleka kwaye iqwenge ixhoba layo. Intliziyo yam, ngexesha lenkanuko yam, yasela amanzi amaninzi kule ndebe ikrakra endiyinikwe nguBawo. Ndawasela ngokweentswelo zonxano lwam, Owandiselisa ngeentsintsi; kwaye ndisesemnqamlezweni uthando lwam lundibophelele ukuba nditsho ukuba usanxaniwe. »

 

Indlela yokuphelisa unxano lukaJC kukuzisola okusuka entliziyweni kunye nokuzohlwaya.

INkosi yethu, iguqukela kum, yathi kum: "Mntwana wam, nguwe, kunye noluntu lonke, onokuzanelisa olu nxano luqwengayo: kuyinyaniso ukuba iimbandezelo ezininzi ezithe umzimba wam ongcwele wazinyamezela zibe nako ukundinika indalo enkulu. unxano; kodwa umnqweno endandinawo ngaphakathi kum ngothando olushushu losindiso lwemiphefumlo nozuko lukaThixo uBawo wam, wandibangela olunye unxano nentuthumbo ekhohlakeleyo. Nguni, miphefumlo ethandekayo, enindilahlekele kangaka! zonke iintsizi zam ndiya kuzilibala, ukuba uyakonelisa unxano lwam, ngokundinika amanzi kwintliziyo etyumkileyo nethobekileyo ngenxa yothando lukaThixo ngokundikhubekisa kakhulu. Le nto kuphela endiyicelayo ukucima ukunxanwa kwam emlilweni (1) osoloko ubangela ukunxanwa kwam. Eyona nto ingenamdla wam

(1) Ibinzana elingaqhelekanga, ukusetyenziswa kakubi kwamagama, ingcamango engqindilili, evela kwisimbo seSibhalo, yaye lowo ebeya kuba buthathaka ngokuzama ukuyichaza ngenye indlela. Ngaphandle koko, umfundi kufuneka akhumbule (kwaye uye wakwazi ukuqaphela oko kude kube ngoku) ukuba sisitayela sikaDade esisinikayo, kungekhona ezethu.

ukuba nicinywe kolonxano lomoya, olulusindiso olungunaphakade lwemiphefumlo yenu

: liyinene elithi ndafeza yonke into ebomini bam ngokuhlupheka kwam nangokufa kwam; eyandenza ndathi emnqamlezweni: Konke kugqityiwe. Ewe, ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo, zonke izinto zenziwe ngam, zonke zifezekile, zonke zifezekile ukuze kuzukiswe uThixo uBawo, nangenxa yosindiso lwenu; kodwa kwicala lenu konke akwenziwa, konke akufezeki, kwaye konke akugqitywa. Kufuneka usebenzisane nobabalo lwam; ukuba ngokumanyene nokufaneleka kwenkanuko yam engcwele uhambe emanyathelweni am; ukuba uwuthwale umnqamlezo wam yonke imihla yobomi bakho ngenxa yothando lwam nozuko lwam, ngokuzohlwaya ngenxa yezono zakho nezoni. »

 

U-JC ulungele ukubandezeleka kwakhona, ngomphefumlo omnye, zonke iintlungu zothando lwakhe, ukuba kuyimfuneko.

INkosi yethu yathi kum: “Ndinayo yonke le nto entliziyweni ngenxa yozuko lukaBawo, kunye nosindiso lwemiphefumlo, ukuba, ukuba bekusafuneka ukuba ndive ubunzima ngenxa yomphefumlo omnye konke endiye ndabandezeleka, kwaye Ubawo ebeya kuyivumela loo nto, bendiya kuyinyamezela ngentliziyo yam yonke ukumenza asikelelwe ngonaphakade. »

 

§. II.

Ukuvuswa kwe-JC kunye neemeko zayo. Izimanga ezenzeka kwingcwaba likaJC xa umphefumlo wakhe wadibana nomzimba wakhe ozukileyo. Akunakwenzeka ukucacisa kwanokuqonda uthando olugqithisileyo lukaThixo ngabantu.

 

INkosi yethu ibonakala kulo dade ize imxelele ixesha eyavuswa ngalo.

Ndinika ingxelo apha ngoloyiso lovuko lweNkosi yethu uJC, ngokoko wandazisa ngako. Ngobusuku bangoMgqibelo oNgcwele, phambi kweCawa yePasika, ngentsimbi yokuqala emva kwasezinzulwini zobusuku, ndavuka. Ndisebhedini yam, ndithe qwa, ndeva iwotshi enkulu ibetha ngentsimbi yokuqala; Ngelo xesha iNkosi yethu yabonakala kum, yathi kum: “Mntwana wam, eli lixa lokuba ndivuke kwabafileyo ndize ndilishiye ingcwaba ndingoyisayo, ndinobuqaqawuli;

thabatha inxaxheba eluvukweni lwam. Ndakuxhwalekisa ngokukwazisa inimba yomphefumlo wam emyezweni weMinquma: ngenxa yoko, mntwana wam, ndifuna ukukuvuyisa kwaye ndikuxelele into yovuko lwam loloyiso. »

 

UDade uthuthelwa engcwabeni likaJC Ubona apho intlanganiso yayo yonke imiphefumlo elungileyo ngaphandle kwe-limbo, kunye nemikhosi emininzi yeengelosi.

Emzuzwini ndisiwe egadini apho iNkosi yethu ibibekwe engcwabeni. Yathi kum iNkosi yethu: “Nantsi ke indawo endaphuma kuyo ndoyisele ukufa; Umphefumlo wam ozukileyo weza nawo uvela kwi-limbo umkhosi wamalungisa asikelelweyo eTestamente eNdala. Ndifike engcwabeni, ndababonisa wonke umzimba wam ongcwele ufile nohluthwe ubomi, ugcwele amanxeba kwaye wonke usindwa yimivumbo yemivumbo endiyifumeneyo. Ngeli xesha, umoya wawukhazimle ngokucace gca kumkhosi weengelosi ezehla ngokukhawuleza njengombane, ezaza zanyibilika egadini ukuze zihloniphe uloyiso lwam. »

Kwezi ngelosi kwakukho inxalenye yekwayala nganye kwezisithoba; bazimisa ngolungelelwano olulungileyo bejikeleze ingcwaba, apho benza ikwayara kuphela, apho iNgelosi enkulu uMikayeli wayeyinkokeli. Oosolusapho baseka ikwayala yesibini. Abaprofeti, abafel 'ukholo, nabo bonke abo babandezeleka kakhulu kwi-JC babephakathi nekwayara yoosolusapho: intsalela yamalungisa yenza ikwayara yesithathu; zazahlulwe ngolungelelwano oluhle kakhulu emyezweni, ojikeleze ingcwaba elingcwele.

 

Uvuko oosolusapho abaliqela abangcwele.

Amaqela aliqela oosolusapho bamandulo, njengalawo abaprofeti nabanye abaliqela, avuswa kunye neNkosi Yethu, kwaye ngokuqhwanyaza kweliso imiphefumlo yawo yadityaniswa nemizimba yabo ezukileyo; kwaye kwakungekho mntu uphilayo eluvukweni ngaphandle kwabo bavuswayo, nabathe, ngeemfanelo zeNkosi Yethu, babefanelekile kwaye bekufanelekele ukunandipha uzuko lwayo oloyiso.

 

Iingoma zovuyo lweengelosi kunye nabangcwele ngexesha lokuvuka kukaJC

Emva kokuba wonke lo mkhosi wawubonile umzimba wakhe ongcwele, ngephanyazo, phambi kweengelosi nabangcwele, lo mphefumlo mhle uphinda uhlangane nomzimba wakhe ongcwele, kwaye iNkosi yethu yabonakala phakathi kweli ndibano intle, njengoko injalo. ezulwini, ezele bubuqaqawuli nakubengezela kobungangamsha obuncamisileyo, ukuze

ubukhazikhazi bakhanya kuwo macala onke. Ikwayala yokuqala yeengelosi ezingcwele yacula iGloria kwi-excelsis Deo , zaza ezinye iikwayala ezimbini zasabela ngokulandelelana kwazo, kwaye zonke zidibene, ngekonsathi yomculo onesingqi esifana naleyo yaseParadesi. Ndeva ukuba bacula, besithi, Le yimini eyenzekileyo uYehova; vuyani! ukuba izulu nomhlaba zingcangcazele ngovuyo nangovuyo, kuba i-JC ivukile ngokwenene, kwaye ayiyi kuphinda ibe phantsi kokufa. Ngamana imbeko, uzuko, amandla, imbeko nonqulo zinganikelwa ngonaphakade kwiMvana kaThixo, eyabandezeleka ukufa ngenxa yokukhulula uluntu!...

 

Xa i-JC ivuselela uyathandwa zizo zonke iingelosi, ngabo bonke abangcwele, kunye noMariya, unina wobuthixo.

INkosi yethu yandixelela ukuba, yakuba yabonakala ngomzimba nangomphefumlo, yavuka ngokwenene, nakubo bonke ubuqaqawuli bayo, laqubuda kuye lonke ibandla, kunye nezithunywa eziseleyo ezulwini, lamnqula ngoMoya nangenyaniso.

 

 

(366-370)

 

 

uThixo oyinyaniso nomntu oyinyaniso, njengokumkani wezulu nomhlaba, njengomhlawuleli woluntu, nomgwebi omkhulu wabaphilileyo nabafileyo. Emva koko wongeza wathi: “Umama wam ongcwele, owathi esendlwini, ngokucaca kwam, wakubona konke okwenzekayo, waqubuda kuqala kunye nayo yonke imimoya yeengelosi nabangcwele, ukuze andinqule kwaye abonise umzekelo kubo bonke oomoya abasikelelekileyo. nakulo lonke uluntu. »

Ebudeni bezi ngoma zovuyo nolu loyiso lubalaseleyo, oyena Bathathu Emnye ungcwele nobalaseleyo, ubunye obungahlulwahlulwayo obuhlala buhleli, wabonakala esazulwini soloyiso, enobuqaqawuli obufanayo nobungangamsha obufanayo obubonakala ezulwini, waza wazenza wabonakala ukuba zonke iingelosi nakubo bonke abangcwele. Apha, ngokuvisisana noko ndikwaziyo ekukhanyeni kukaThixo, koko uBawo onguNaphakade akuthethayo kuNyana wakhe oyintanda: “UnguNyana wam wena; Ndakuzala kwasephakadeni ngobungangamsha bozuko lwam. Namhlanje ndikuzele, Thixo wenyaniso, indoda yenyaniso, ukumkani ongenakonakala, ongagungqiyo, onguThixo onjengam: Ndiya kukuzala wena, Thixo, mntundini, othe wabandezeleka ngenxa yobuntu bakho obungcwele. Nanku

umeyisi wokufa nazo zonke iintshaba zakho, kwaye ngokwenene uvukile eluzukweni lwakho. UnguNyana wam, iLizwi lam, kunye noNyana wam oyintanda endibeke kuye konke ukonwaba kwam kunye nolonwabo lwam lwanaphakade. Lonke igunya linikwe wena emazulwini nasehlabathini, nasenzonzobileni yenzonzobila. »

 

Ukuqala kweBandla eloyisileyo, nenzaliseko yobabalo olutsha lwathululwa phezu komkhosi weCawa.

Emva koko iNkosi yethu yandazisa ukuba iBandla eloyisileyo laqala ekuvukeni kwakhe, ngenxa yokuba, yakuba yavuka, yenza uzuko lwabo bonke abasikelelweyo ababekho. Nanku omnye ummangaliso, yayingumbono womkhosi omtsha weCawa, ozaliswe lubabalo olungenasiphelo, iisakramente kunye nokufaneleka, ezaziziziqhamo zothando kunye nolonwabo.

ngokufa kweNkosi yethu nokuvuka kwayo okungcwele. Zonke ezi mfihlelo zithandekayo zabonakaliswa kum kuThixo ngumbono oqaqambileyo, owathi lonke ibandla leBandla elitsha loloyiso lawubonayo ngombono woyena Bathathu Emnye ungcwele nothandekayo ekuzuko lwakhe.

 

Umbono womkhosi wonke weCawa ngokubanzi, kwaye ngokukodwa, weqela lonke labanyuliweyo kude kube sekupheleni kwehlabathi.

Le miphefumlo isikelelekileyo yaphinda yabona kuThixo yonke imikhosi yeCawa ihlanganisene phambi kwayo, kwaye ibazi abamiselwe ngenxa engaphambili nabangafanelekanga, bonke abo bazisebenzisa kakuhle iinceba kunye nokufaneleka kweNkosi yethu, kunye nabo bonke abo babebaxhaphaza. Kodwa ngaphezu kwayo yonke loo nto yayiluvuyo olunjani na uvuyo olungazaliswanga kule miphefumlo izukileyo, xa yayimelwe kubo Umkhosi wabamiselwa ngenxa engaphambili, obunjwe ngoopopu abaninzi, abapostile, abafeli-nkolo abanesisa, abavumi, abavumisi neentombi ezinyulu, singasathethi ke ngenani elingenasiphelo lamaKristu athembekileyo akuwo onke amazwe nakuzo zonke izizukulwana, kwaneengcwele ezininzi eziguqukileyo eziye zazenza mhlophe phantsi kwedyokhwe. enguqukweni, bexelisa umzekelo woMsindisi wabo othandekayo! Babonakala bebabona aba balweli besisa behamba behamba ngamajoni ukuze bamanyane kunye nabo, baze badlule besuka kumkhosi weCawa ukuya kwiCawa yoloyiso; eyenza kuThixo iBandla elinye neliyinyaniso. Ke, bezele luhambo lovuyo ekuboneni ukulunga kweNkosi yethu, bonke baqalisa ukucula le canticle: Owu impazamo eyonwabileyo eye yasifanela uMhlawuleli onjalo  !

UBawo ongunaPhakade unika intsikelelo yakhe kubo bonke abanyuliweyo.

Ngalo mzuzu ilizwi likaBawo ongunaPhakade liviwa libandla lonke, Unika intsikelelo kubo bonke abo baqamba iBandla eloyisileyo, kwaye kwangaxeshanye uyabasikelela bonke abasikelelweyo ababonayo, kwimimiselo yakhe engunaphakade, ukuba benze. inguquko, ehambelana nobabalo lwentlawulelo yoNyana wakhe, nokuxelisa umzekelo wakhe. “Ewe, watsho, ndiyabasikelela ngexesha nasemaphakadeni. Ndiya kubazisa ebukumkanini bam ngenxa yentlungu nokufa koNyana wam: ndiya kubamkela ebukumkanini bam egameni loNyana wam, nangoNyana wam. »

 

Iingcinga zikaSister malunga nothando lukaJC ekufuneka siphendule ngalo ngothando.

Nguwe, Owu Lizwi owenziwe umntu, Thixo oyinyaniso, mntu wenyaniso, owathi, ngokufa nangenkanuko, wabavulela ucango lwezulu, lwavalwa iminyaka engamawaka amane. Nguwe oyindlela yabo nobomi babo, kwaye ubakhokelela enyanisweni; ekugqibeleni ulusindiso lwabo. Uyoyikile inceba yakho kubantu bakho, Uloyiso oluzukileyo; kodwa olu thando lobuthixo (1) lufuna njengomvuzo wothando, lufuna ukuthandwa; uya kuba lusindiso kuphela kwabo bamthandayo. Kungenxa yabo ukuba olu thando lobuthixo luphumelele uloyiso oluninzi; athe ngayo, ngemisebenzi yakhe nangoloyiso lwakhe, wabetha ukufa ngenxa yabo bonke. Ndithi kumntu wonke, kuba olu thando lukaThixo lufuna ukuba wonke umntu asindiswe, kwaye wonke umntu aluthande. Kulapho baya kuhlala khona ngonaphakade. Oko kuthiwa kukufa kukufa okungunaphakade: ukufa komzimba ibalelwa into engento; luthuli oluncinane kuphela oluya kuvuka kwakhona ngomhla wokugqibela; kodwa oko kuthiwa kukufa kokwenyaniso kukufa okungunaphakade. Yi

(371-375)

owathi uthando lwayibetha yonke imiphefumlo eya kufuna ukungqinelana naye kwaye imthande ngentliziyo yayo yonke, ngomphefumlo wayo uphela, ngengqondo yayo yonke nangamandla ayo ephela.

 

Uthando lwethu lwe-JC kufuneka lube rhoqo kwaye lungenasiphelo. Imele ibe yekhululekileyo nokuzikhethela kwethu.

Akafuni kusikelwa umda kuthando lwethu ngaye. Uthando olungcwele alunasiphelo, kwaye luya kuhlala luvutha ngonaphakade, aluze ludle. Kwakhona olu thando lobuthixo lufuna ukuba bonke abo bafuna ukumthanda benze okulungileyo ngenxa yothando lwakhe, bazingise kude kuse ekufeni. Nabani na ofa ngenxa yothando, uya kufa ekufeni. Uthando olungcwele, ngoloyiso lwalo, aluzange lubhukuqe ukufa kuphela, kodwa lwavala amasango esihogo kuthi,

wavula ezo zobukumkani bakhe. Luthando olusisitshixo kubukumkani bamazulu; siya kuvulelwa kuphela lowo usithandayo nalowo wenze imisebenzi emihle kuthando lwakhe.

Olu thando lobuthixo lusithande kakhulu, kwaye lusasithanda ngothando olungenasiphelo, olwalufuna, ngentando yalo ekhululekile kunye nentando yalo, ukuba lwehle luvela phezulu ezulwini kwaye lwamkele zonke iintlobo zeminqamlezo, iintlungu kunye nokuthotywa. , aze ekugqibeleni afe, engakhange anyanzeleke kuko ngaphandle nje kokulunga kwakhe okukhulu kakhulu nangothando lwakhe olukhulu, ufuna abo bamthandayo, bamthande ngenkululeko yabo yokuzikhethela nangentando yabo elungileyo. Wenza umyalelo wokuba simthande: wasibonisa indlela eya ezulwini, equka ukulandela  umzekelo wakhe nokugcina imiyalelo yakhe yobuthixo. Ude azibophelele, olu thando lungcwele, ukuba asinike ngaphezu kobabalo olwaneleyo ukuze aphumeze usindiso lwethu; kodwa uya kusindisa kuphela abo bafuna ukuzisindisa, akayi kunyanzela inkululeko  yokuzikhethela.

Emva kokusibonisa indlela, kuxhomekeke kuthi ukuba siyilandele okanye singayilandeli: ikamva lethu lisezandleni zethu. Ukuba sifuna ukuzinikela kwakhona ekufeni okungunaphakade, ukuphinda sivule isihogo esasisivalile, kwaye sibuncame ubukumkani esasilungiselelwe olu thando lobuthixo, sikhululekile. Ukuba ugwetyiwe, nguwe ofuna ukuzigweba ngenxa yokungafuni ukwenza ukhetho olufanelekileyo. Nasuka nakhetha ukulandela iinkanuko neminqweno yenu, nasuka nazithanda ngokwenu iinkanuko; Kungenxa yoko le nto uthando lukaThixo luya kuthi kuwe:

Andinazi; anibalwa kwabandithandayo; walahleka, kwaye ubufuna. »

 

Umbono wenani elingenakubalwa labashiyiweyo. UBawo onguNaphakade uyabaqalekisa.

UBawo onguNaphakade, ngokukhanya okutsha, wabonisa iBandla elitsha eloyisayo elibunjwe ngabanyuliweyo, nolonwabo lwabasikelelweyo ngonaphakade. Wabonisa kwangaxeshanye ukugwetywa kwabo banelishwa esihogweni, abanani labo lalisoyikeka kangangokuba ukuba le miphefumlo esikelelweyo yayikwazile ukubandezeleka nenkxwaleko, uvuyo lwayo noloyiso lwayo ngeyayincitshisiwe. Hayi, zonke izinto zinikela uzuko lukaYehova. Ukuba akukho eluthandweni lwakhe, kuya kuba kubulungisa bakhe obungunaphakade ukuba siya kumzukisa nangona inkani ukuthanda abangahloneli Thixo basoloko bevukela uThixo.

UBawo ongunaPhakade, emva kokuba elutyhile kulwazi nasekuboneni osikelelekileyo inani eloyikekayo labachasiweyo, wathi phambi kwabo: “Ngokuba wena ungahloneli Thixo, ndiyaqalekisa, ndikuqalekisile emimiselweni yam engunaphakade, endiyaziyo. kususela kwaphakade, ubutshinga bakho, nobumenemene bakho; kodwa amandla am nobulungisa bam buya kukungcikiva ngonaphakade. »

 

UBawo onguNaphakade umisela unyana wakhe ukumkani wendalo iphela nomgwebi owongamileyo wabaphilayo nabafileyo.

Wandula ke uBawo ongunaPhakade, ebhekisa kunyana wakhe, wathi kuye: “Wena unguKumkani, uKumkani wozuko; Ndikwenza umgwebi wabaphilayo nabafileyo.

Uya kuba luzuko nolonwabo kwabo bakuthandayo; ke iintshaba zakho wozalusa ngentonga yentsimbi, uzityumze phantsi kweenyawo zakho. Uya kuziqwebela amandla akho, azidubadube enzonzobileni. »

 

UThixo ubona yonke into njengenqaku ukusuka kuwo onke amaphakade kunye nakuwo onke amaphakade.

Ndiyazisa apha into endiyiphilayo kuThixo. Ngomhla womgwebo jikelele, xa iNkosi yethu iya kuthi kwabanyuliweyo bayo: Yizani, nina nisikelelweyo bakaBawo, nidle ilifa ubukumkani obalungiselwa nina kwasekuqalekeni kwehlabathi; nokuba uya kuthi ngokufanayo kwabangendawo: “Mkani kum, nina niqalekisiweyo, niye emlilweni ongunaphakade, olungiselwe umtyholi, nabo bangabeqela lakhe; » Ndandisazi kuThixo ukuba iNkosi Yethu iya kuthetha ngolo hlobo, kuba ukususela kwixesha elingenammiselo nakunaphakade yonke into ayidalileyo uThixo, njengako konke aya kuyidala, ixesha elidluleyo, elikhoyo nelizayo zisoloko zikho kuye njengechaphaza.

 

Uphila njani uDade zonke ezi mfihlakalo agqiba kuzixela.

Xa ndixela apha konke endikubonileyo kuThixo kwimfihlelo ethandekayo yovuko, musani ukukholelwa ukuba ndakubona kule mfihlelo, ngaphezu kwazo zonke ezinye iimfihlelo, ngokucacileyo nangohlobo lwabasikelelekileyo. Yeha! Ndiyoyika kakhulu kwaye ndoyika kakhulu ukuba andisayi kuze ndiyifanele. Ngokomzekelo, xa ndathi Oyena UBathathu Emnye Ungcwele wazifumanisa ekwiNdawo Engcwele, phakathi kwabo basikelelweyo, yaye wazibonakalisa ekuzuko lwayo nanjengoko wayenjalo ezulwini, kuhle! Ndabona kuphela iglowubhu yokukhanya eyayingqonge abantu abathathu abangcwele, kwaye andizange ndibone namnye kwaba bantu bathathu abathandekayo. Ndiyavuma ukuba akukho mntu uphilayo unako, akanelanga

nyulu ukumbona uThixo njengoko esebuqaqawulini bakhe; akanako nokubona namnye usikelelweyo eluzukweni lweNkosi. Ndiyavuma ukuba oko kuyenzeka, kuya kuba ngummangaliso omkhulu. Ndiyakholwa ukuba uThixo wenza imimangaliso xa ethanda; kodwa kum, into endinokuyithetha ngayo kukuba umntu akanakuze abone izinto ezingcwele nezingcwele ngolo hlobo ngaphandle kokuphulukana nobomi bakhe. Ndiphinda ndibhengeze ukuba xa kukholekile kuMsindisi wethu othandekayo ukuba andibonise into ethile yeemfihlelo zakhe ezingcwele, umzekelo, uvuko lwakhe olungcwele, wathetha nam, kwaye wathi xa ethetha nam, ilizwi lakhe lakhanyisa yonke ingaphakathi lam, kwaye lenza ngaphakathi. Ingqondo yam yayiluhlobo lomfanekiso otyhidiweyo, apho ndabona khona konke oko lo Thixo wokulunga wayefuna ukuyazisa kum, awayefuna ukundazisa ngako. unyanzelekile ukuba abhale into ethile; into endiyenzileyo kukuthobela.

 

Oko akubhalileyo kungaphantsi kakhulu koko wakubona kuThixo. Akunakwenzeka ukuyichaza.

Le nto ndiyibhalileyo ikude lee apha ngezantsi kwaye ayisondeli koko ndikubonileyo ndakwaziyo kuThixo. Ndicela uxolo kwiNkosi yethu ngokuzichaza kakubi, kwaye ndingakwazi ukuthetha okanye ukuphuhlisa into endiyibonileyo okanye endiyibonileyo. INkosi yethu indenze ndazi ukuba akukho emandleni am, kwaye ndingakhe ndizame ukuyicacisa ngokucacileyo into eyandenza ndayibona kubuThixo bayo; oko bekuya kuba kukuhenda uThixo.

 

Uthando lobuthixo ngaphezu kwako konke aluchazeki. Abasikelelweyo basezulwini abanakuze bakuqonde ngokupheleleyo oku.

Umzekelo, iNkosi yethu yandenza ndabona kwimfihlelo yokufa kwakhe kunye nothando lwakhe ngumzekelo omncinci woloyiso lothando lwayo. Bendingazi nokuba iNkosi ingandinyanzela na ukuba ndiyibhale phantsi into yayo; “Njani, mntwana wam,

Wathi, Unako na ukuzibhala izinto ezingcwele, nokucacisa oko kuncinane ndikubonise kona? uyazi ukuba uloyiso lothando lobuthixo ngumsebenzi kaThixo ngokwakhe? Abasikelelweyo basezulwini bayakuhlala ngonaphakade becinga, bebona, bencoma kwaye bethanda olu loyiso luhle lothando lwam, olu loyiso luhle lothando lwam kuzo zonke iimfihlakalo zobomi bam, ukufa kunye nenkanuko, nakuko konke endikwenzileyo ngaphakathi. iBandla lam ngobabalo lwam nangemithendeleko; kodwa ngokukodwa olu loyiso oluhle lothando lwam oluthi ngobabalo lwam lungene ezintliziyweni ngogonyamelo oluthambileyo, olubatsalela kum ngaphandle kokuphazamisa  inkululeko yabo.

Ungakuchaza njani konke oku okusisiphumo sothando olukhulu, oluphila kuphela kuloyiso noloyiso, oluthi nkqu nokufa kungenakuxhathisa? Bonke abasikelelweyo ezulwini baya kuxwilwa eluthandweni ngonaphakade, bangabi nako ukuluqonda ngokupheleleyo. » Apha iNkosi yethu yongeza: « Ukuzola kwentliziyo ethanda kwaye ithande olu thando lobuthixo, yenza imbeko ngakumbi kubungangamsha bayo kunamazwi, ulwazi kunye nengcaciso. »

 

INkosi yethu evukileyo iphuma emyezweni kunye nomkhosi wamalungisa kunye neengelosi, kwaye iya kundwendwela uMama wayo ongcwele.

Phambi kokuba iNkosi yethu imke emyezweni nawo wonke lo mkhosi usikelelekileyo, indibano iphela yacula ingoma yombulelo eNkosini. Olu loyiso lwathabatha malunga neyure; kangangokuba ndaqonda ukuba kwakumalunga nentsimbi yesibini xa le ndibano intle yathi shwaka egadini. Ngexesha lokuvuka kweNkosi yethu kwasa, kwaye xa iNkosi yethu ishiya igadi, ilanga laliphumile imizuzu embalwa. Wayesele ehambele phambili kugqatso lwakhe ukuze abone okwenzekayo ekuvukeni koMsindisi.

Utyelelo lokuqala lweNkosi yethu ezukileyo ekuphumeni kwakhe egadini yayikwindawo yokuphumla, apho yaya khona ngokukhawuleza kunokuba bekucingelwa, ukuya kundwendwela uMariya ohloniphekileyo nongcwele, iNtombi Enyulu esikelelekileyo, unina. Wamtyelela njengoThixo oyinyaniso nomntu oyinyaniso nongenakufa. Uvuyo olwanikelwa yiNkosi yethu kuloyiso lwakhe

Uvuko, lwalulingana neentlungu awayeziva emazantsi omnqamlezo. Ngexesha leentsuku ezingamashumi amane iNkosi Yethu yayichitha emhlabeni, ixesha elininzi yayinaye ngomzimba nangomphefumlo. Kwakungeyomfuneko kule nto ukuba iNtombi Enyulu eSikelelekileyo isoloko iyodwa kwaye ingenamdibaniselwano, kuba iNkosi yethu yazenza ingabonakali, yaza yenza ukuba ingabonakali kwiNtombi Enyulu esikelelekileyo kuyo yonke indibano yeengelosi kunye nabasikelelekileyo, ababemlandela kuyo yonke indawo.

 

Ukubonakala kweJC kubapostile bakhe.

Akazange azenze angabonakali kubapostile. Wenza iziboniso ezininzi kubo, njengoko iVangeli isitsho, apho wazibonisa kubo ngendlela yomntu, ebumisa ubungangamsha bobungangamsha bakhe, ebazisa ubuntu bakhe obungcwele, encokola nabo ngokuqhelana nabo, ebaqinisekisa, inene, ukuba wayevukile ngokwenene, ebaxelela ukuba bafanele bangoyiki, ukuba wambathiswe umzimba wakhe ongcwele, inyama namathambo, yaye ngaloo ndlela engqina kubo ukuba uvuswe ngokwenene. INkosi yethu yabatyelela ngalo lonke eli xesha ukuze ityale imilisele kubo ukholo, olwalusebuthathaka kakhulu kwabanye.

 

Abafazi abangcwele baya engcwabeni. Iingelosi ziyalisusa ilitye. Ukoyika oonogada. Iingelosi zivakalisa kubafazi abangcwele ukuba i-JC ivukile.

Xa le ndibano izukileyo yaphuma emyezweni, abafazi ababesiya engcwabeni, nabacebisa ukuba bawuqhole umzimba ongcwele woMsindisi wethu ongcwele, babeza kufika kungekudala. UThixo wathumela izithunywa zabo

bhengeza ezi ndaba zimnandi nezimnandi zokuvuka koMsindisi wethu othandekayo. Wavumela enye yeengelosi zakhe ukuba ibonakale ngokubonakalayo kubalindi ukuze boyike yaye boyike. Kwangelo xesha, aba balindi beva ingxolo enkulu eyayiphuma etyeni, ezathi izithunywa zezulu zaqengqeleka zaphuma emnyango wengcwaba. Kule ngxolo yongezwa inyikima, eyayinkulu kakhulu.

ngokukodwa emyezweni naseYerusalem, ngokuba bekungemi mntu. Oonogada bawiswa phantsi ngokungathi basecicini lokufa. Bakuba bechakile kukoyika, babaleka emyezweni, bafika abafazi abangcwele. Kulapho zathi izithunywa zezulu kubo, Nina ke, musani ukoyika nto, musani ukoyika; kuba siyazi ukuba nifuna uYesu waseNazarete; ukanti akasekho, uvukile, njengoko watshoyo; Hambani niye kubikela uPetros nabanye abapostile, nibaqinisekise ukuba bombona eGalili, njengoko wayebathembisile.

 

§. III.

Uqheliselo olwafundiswa kuDade Wokuzalwa kukaYesu yiNkosi Yethu, lwaza lwatsalwa kwiPasion yakhe, ukuba negalelo elikhulu ekukhululeni imiphefumlo ekwindawo yentlambululo-miphefumlo.

 

 

INkosi yethu iye yandazisa indlela ekuyimfuneko ngayo ukukhulula imiphefumlo kwiNtlambululo-miphefumlo” Kungemithandazo emifutshane nangeminqweno eyenziwa entliziyweni yakhe, ngenjongo nembeko yokufa kwakhe okungcwele. uthando. UThixo undazisa kuphela umnqweno omnye owenziwe ngothando kunye nenkathalo ngembeko yezi mfihlelo zintlanu zilusizi, ethatha amaxesha ngamaxesha imfihlakalo kumnqweno ngamnye, kwaye enikela ngako konke iNkosi yethu eyabandezelekayo yakunyamezelayo, kunye nazo zonke iimfanelo zayo, ukuze kukhululeke imiphefumlo kwiNtlambululo-miphefumlo, okanye omnye ngokukhethekileyo, wayefaneleka ngokungenasiphelo ukuze ahlangulwe ngokukhawuleza.

 

Ngeliphi ixesha iNkosi yethu ifundisa lo mkhuba kuDade.

Esi sisihlandlo awathi ngaso uThixo wandinika ulwazi lolu kuzinikela.

Owayesakuba ngunongendi wafa. Lo wayeza kuhlala esiseleni sakhe emva kwakhe wayesoyika umfi, wandicenga ukuba ndiye kulala apho inyanga yonke. Ngobunye ubusuku, ndavuka ezinzulwini zobusuku, ngemvume yomchazi-nkonzo wam kunye noMphathi wam, ndaza ndaqalisa ukuthandaza, ndijonge kwiSakramente eSikelelekileyo, ndizimanya ngentliziyo nengqondo noonongendi ababecengceleza iingoma zomthandazo. Ngokuqhelekileyo ngobusuku iNkosi Yethu eyayibuphawule ukuba ndithandaze, ngokukodwa ngobusuku obususela ngoLwesine ukusa ngoLwesihlanu, yayidla ngokundilumkisa ukuba ndivuke; ndahlala ndithandaza kwade kwafika eloxesha

INkosi yethu yandazisa ukuba kufuneka ndibuyele ebhedini. Kwakungobunye bobusuku apho iNkosi yethu yandifundisa olu kuzinikela, olutsalwa kwinkanuko yakhe engcwele, ngokuthanda imiphefumlo yasePuritori, kwaye yile ndlela eyenzekayo:

 

Unongendi ongasekhoyo ubonakala kuye aze amcele ukuba amthandazele.

Emva kokuba ndifumene imvume yeNkosi Yethu ukuba ndiphinde ndiqalise ukuphumla, ndaphakama kumthandazo wam, ndaza ndangqengqa ecaleni kwebhedi. Ndambona ngamehlo omzimba nomphefumlo umfi enobuso, njengasebomini bakhe, nangeempahla zakhe zasebusuku, owayesoloko ezibeka phambi kwam endinqanda ukuba ndingangeni ebhedini, endingcikiva ngelithi oko ndavukayo. wayengamthandazelanga. Ndijike ibhedi ndayolala; yayisoloko iphambi kwam ukundithintela ukuba ndingakhwela kuyo.

Ndathi ndakukubona oku, ndabhekisa eNkosini yethu, ndathi kuyo: Nkosi, ndivumele ndikhe ndikhe ndithandazele lo mntu uswelekileyo okwethutyana, ngaphambi kokuba ndilale. Hayi, yaphendula iNkosi yethu, ndifuna ulala. Njengoko wayesephambi kwam, iNkosi yethu yathi kum: “Mchukumise ngesandla sakho. Ebesandijongile ngomqolo. Ndasolula isandla sam ngoloyiko olukhulu, kodwa ngokholo, kwaye ndibeka lonke ithemba lam kuThixo, obukho bakhe babubonakala buvakala kum, ngaphandle kokumbona kwam nangayiphi na indlela. Ndabona umfi kuphela. Ndithe sendicinga ukuba ndibeka isandla emqolo kuye ndimbambe, andabamba kwanto, ndikhawuleze ndicinge wabe esecaleni kwam, endincamile. Ndangqengqa ngokukhawuleza, ndathi ndakulala ebhedini, ndikhanyiselwe bubuhle benyanga. eyanikezela esiseleni, eyayinokukhanya okuphantse kufane nokwemini, ndambona ejikeleza ibhedi yethu, esenza iinzame zokukhwela kuyo. Kwakulo mzuzu apho iNkosi yethu yandifundisa lo mthandazo umfutshane wemiphefumlo kwiPuritori endisandula ukuthetha ngayo. Lo Thixo wokulunga wathi kum: "Nikela kuBawo wam ongunaPhakade, ngalo mphefumlo, konke endibandezelekileyo ndanyamezela kwimfihlakalo ebuhlungu yomthandazo wam kuMyezo weMinquma kwaye ndiwunikele ngothando nangokumanyene nothando endinalo.

Ukuthobela uSister, nangona engafuni ukuba nomntu obhalayo.

Bawo, ndiyanazisa ngaphezu kwemvelo yokuthandabuza endinako, kwaye bendisoloko ndinako, ukubhala phantsi iimfihlo ezingaqhelekanga uThixo andiphathise zona, endizigcina emfihlekweni wesazela sam. Phezu kwazo nje iintlungu endizivayo xa ndenza abantu ukuba babhale, ndisoloko, ngobabalo lukaThixo, ngaphandle kwayo ndingenakwenza nto, ndibabhalele nanini na uMsindisi wam ongcwele kunye nabavumayo bam bandiyalele ukuba; nangona ukuzonda kunye neentlungu zongezwa isilingo somtyholi, esisoloko sikhokelela ukuba ndingabhali, ngenxa yesizathu sokuba lo mbhalo uya kuba ngunobangela wokutshatyalaliswa kwam.

 

Uyazicenga ngethemba lokuba akasayi kunyanzeleka ukuba abhale. Ukuthanda kukaThixo kuyachasa. Izingcikivo ezenziwa kuye yiNtombi Enyulu esikelelekileyo.

Oko bendibhala, kuyamkholisa uMsindisi wam ongcwele ukuba andinike ithuba elide, nokuba iminyaka eliqela ilandelelana, kangangokuba ndiye ndakholelwa izihlandlo ezininzi ukuba kuphelile, nokuba iNkosi elungileyo ayizange ifune okungakumbi kum ukuba ndiyenze. bhala; eyandithuthuzela kakhulu. Kweli xesha langoku, apho ndinabantu ababhalayo, kukho iintsuku ezine okanye ezintlanu kuphela endandicinga ukuba andisazenzi; eyandithuthuzela kakhulu, xa indibona ndikhululekile kwiintlungu zam nakwezinye iintlungu ezininzi ezivela apho.

Kodwa ngelishwa ! inceda ntoni indoda le icebisa? Lo Thixo wokulunga usenza ngokwemimiselo yokuthanda kwakhe okungcwele, nanjengoko ethanda ngako.

Nantsi into eyenzekileyo kum kwezi ntsuku zimbalwa zidlulileyo, ichukumisa intando kaThixo ngokubhekiselele kwiSibhalo. UThixo undenze ndazi ngakumbi kunangaphambili ukuba kukholekile kuye nentando yakhe engcwele ukuba ndisayibhala. Kulo mbandela, iNtombi Enyulu eNgcwele yandixelela ukuba ingathanda ukuba ndibhale phantsi iinkcukacha ezithile eyandazisa ngazo malunga neemfihlakalo zayo, ngakumbi.

kuloo nto yentelekelelo yakhe ezukileyo; wandenza ingcikivo, wathi, Utheni, ntombi yam; uthe kum, awukhange uthethe ngam kwiincwadi zakho! wawungekho nanye into ebhaliweyo kwizinto ezininzi endanazisa ngazo, mna, owakuhlangulayo kwasebuntwaneni bakho, owathi ngokufuthi waphambukisa imilo enzima nezilingo ezazifuna ukunivusela zona iidemon  ! Uya kwazi kuphela kwelinye ilizwe, ntombi yam, inkathalo ethile ebendinayo kuwe, kunye neenceba zokhuseleko endizifumanele wena kuNyana wam ongcwele.

Bendimangaliswe ziintloni nokubhideka phambi kweNtombi Engcwele. Ndacela uxolo kwiNkosi yethu kunye neNtombi Enyulu eSikelelekileyo ngako konke ukungabi nambulelo kunye nokungathembeki endikwenzileyo ngalo lonke ixesha lobomi bam, kunye nolwazana oluncinci endandinalo lothando kunye nokuthantamisa kukamama olungileyo. Ndathembisa ukuthembeka ngakumbi; Ndazinikela kuye ukuba enze kum ngoko akuthandayo; kwaye ndambongoza, nangona ndingafaneleki, ukuba angandishiyi, aze andithandazele kuNyana wakhe oyintanda, ukuze andixolele zonke izono zam. Ndamthembisa ukuba ndiya kumthobela de kube ngumphefumlo wokugqibela wobomi bam, kwaye ndiza kumenza ukuba abhale malunga nezinto ezimkhathazayo, kwaye into endiya kukwazi ukuba iya kuba luncedo kakhulu ekuzukiseni uThixo nasekusindisweni kwemiphefumlo. .

Kwangaloo mini ingcwele yabonakala kum, kwiiyure ezininzi kamva iNkosi yethu yabonakala kum ngesihloko esifanayo. Wandazisa ukuba kukho izinto ezininzi ngaphakathi kwam ezivele kuye kwaye ndazifihla, ndisithi azikho mfuneko. Wandibonisa, inqaku nenqaku, imiba eyahlukeneyo awayefuna ndiyibhale phantsi, kunye neenceba kunye nobabalo oluninzi awandinika lona ngumama wakhe ongcwele, kwaye wandixelela ukuba undinike ukhuseleko lwakhe  . .

 

Uthembisa konke ukuthobela iNkosi Yethu, ngokuzithoba emele kuye ukuzonda kwakhe. Impendulo evela eNkosini yethu. Iziphoso zakhe zilubabalo olukhulu.

§. I.

Ukufa kukaLouis XVI. Ulonwabo lwakhe eZulwini.

 

 

UDade uyazi ngokusweleka kukaLouis XVI kwiminyaka emibini edlulileyo. Imithandazo yakhe yokumphambukisa.

Nantsi into endiza kuyinika ingxelo apha ngokusweleka koKumkani wethu othandekayo nothandekayo uLouis XVI, uKumkani waseFransi, nangolonwabo olufunyanwa ngumphefumlo wakhe ezulwini ngobabalo lukaThixo. Ngenye imini xa ndandithandaza phambi koMthendeleko oNgcwele, iNkosi yandixelela ukuba iKumkani yayiza kubulawa. Ndathi ndakuva ezo ndaba zilusizi, ndabongoza ngokukhulu ukuzithoba iNkosi yethu ukuba ingakuvumeli oku ukuba kwenzeke. Ukususela kwezi ndaba zinxunguphalisayo, endazifunda kwiminyaka emibini ngaphambi kokufa kwakhe, ndiye ndagcina entliziyweni yam imfihlelo enzulu ngeshwangusha elingaka, ndingaxelelanga mntu. Ndandithandaza ngokungapheziyo kuThixo ukuba ayisuse le ndebe kum nakwilizwe lonke laseFransi; kodwa umthandazo wam wawungenamandla kuThixo ukuba andiphendule.

 

Emva kokufa koKumkani, iyazi ukuba uyalawula ezulwini.

Ngaphezu kweminyaka emibini kamva kwafika esi sibetho sibi nesiqalekiso, sayihlaba intliziyo yam ngekrele lentlungu nobukrakra; kodwa kwiintsuku ezimbalwa emva kwezi ndaba zibuhlungu, iNkosi Yethu yabonakala kum yaza yathi: “Vuya, ntombi yam! Ndanibetha ngokufa koKumkani wenu, kodwa ndize kunithuthuzela ngale  nto

Iindaba ezilungileyo: uzukile, uloyiso, uKumkani ebukumkanini bam; ngu

§. II.

Umbono kunye nenkcazo yomthi omangalisayo, oneengcambu ezine ezinkulu, umfanekiso wokungahloneli Thixo osongela ukucinezela iBandla. Iinzame zabantwana beCawe zokugawula nokuncothula lo mthi.

 

 

Umbono womthi omkhulu oneengcambu ezine.

Yenjenje ukundazisa uYehova ngokusingisele kuvukelo, wathi, uMoya kaYehova wandenza ndabona umthi omde, omkhulu kakhulu; yabambelela emhlabeni, eyayineengcambu ezine ezinkulu njengemiphanda: ezintathu zezi ngcambu zavela emhlabeni zaza zayila njengeemitha ezintathu, okanye ezintathu, ukuze zixhase lo mthi mkhulu; ingcambu yesine yayisentliziyweni yomthi, yaza yangena ngokunzulu emathunjini omhlaba kunye nezinye iingcambu ezintathu, kangangokuba umntu wayenokuthi akhuphe amandla abo kunye namandla abo kubudemoni bobudemon besihogo, njengomoya. yeNkosi yandixelela.

 

Kuthetha ukuthini na ukuqina kwamaxolo awo, namasebe awo anqunyulwa ngokuyinxenye? Ungqiyama ngeCawa ukuba ayityumze.

Lo mthi wawungenamagqabi okanye uhlaza; ixolo lalo lalifana nentsimbi yenkanunu, yaye laliqinile ngokufanayo. Ndaxelelwa ukuba oku kuthetha ukuba umoya wakhe uya kuhlala ufana nemfazwe. Lo mthi mkhulu wawuphakame kangangokuba ndandingayiboni isitya (1); yayingqiyame kwelinye icala, kangangokuba ngenxa yobukhulu bayo obumangalisayo yabonakala ngathi yindlela ebanzi umntu anohamba ngayo kulo mthi. Kwakukho, phantsi kokungqiyama kwalo mthi, iBandla elikhulu nelihle; lo mthi wagoba phezu kwawo ngokungathi uyawutyumza nokuwutshabalalisa  . Umoya weNkosi wandixelela ukuba kwakungayi kuba njalo, ukuba uya kuligcina iBandla lakhe, kwaye uya kulixhasa kude kube sekupheleni kweenkulungwane; nokuba yayinokucinezelwa kakuhle, kodwa, phezu kwazo nje iintshutshiso, yayiya kusanda ngakumbi.

(1) Umphezulu.

 

Lo mthi wawaqhawula amasebe; kodwa sasishiye iinyawo ezimbini okanye ezintathu

 

 

(396-400)

 

 

zamasebe, ukuze zingagawulwanga emthini, zingagawulwanga ngokufanayo zonke. Ezo zaziphezu kwethambeka zazisikwa zigungxulwe, nto leyo eyenza indlela kulo mthi. Ndabona abantu abaninzi abahlonela uThixo, kwanabanye endibaziyo, besihla besihla kulo mthi. Ndisabona abasebenzi bejikeleza, bephethe iipiki, amazembe kunye nezinye izixhobo ezininzi, njengoko bekwimeko yokumncothula nokumgawula.

Nantsi into eyathethwa yiNkosi kum: la masebe asikiweyo amele le mfazwe awayeyivumele ngaphakathi eFransi, ngokungathi uyaziphindezela, ngobulungisa bakhe, kwabo bangahloneli Thixo ungumfanekiso kunye nomfanekiso wakhe. Ndabona kuThixo ukuba ngale mfazwe yamathumbu, edityaniswe nezithsaba zasemzini, andazi ukuba mingaphi na imiphefumlo, yabona bantu banekratshi nabakhohlakeleyo ebubini, eyaphoswa emazantsi enzonzobileni yesihogo. Yabona, utsho uYehova kum, ukuthi, Ndidlala nabangendawo; ndirhola kuyo uzuko lwam ngobulungisa bam.

 

Iinzame ezingancediyo zeBandla liphela zisebenza kunye nemithandazo yokugawula nokuncothula lo mthi. Uya kugawulwa, kodwa angancothulwa.

Ndabuza Nkosi yethu ukuba aba bantu babehla besehla kulo mthi bafuna ntoni; waphendula wathi: “Bayenyuka ukuze bondlale baze balungelelanise iintambo ezinkulu, ezincanyathiselwe kwigophe lalo mthi ukuze ziwutsale ukuba uphume kwindawo ongqiyame kuyo phezu kweCawa.” Yandula ke iNkosi Yethu yandazisa ngendlela ecace ngakumbi konke okuphathelele lo mthi, isithi kum: “IBandla liphela likwiphulo lokugawula lo mthi; singathanda ukuyincothula, kodwa andifuni. Abathembekileyo bayandibongoza ngemithandazo yabo kunye nokuncwina kwabo okuchukumisa intliziyo yam; ziya kuviwa iinyembezi zabo. Ndiya kuligalela ixesha lokugawula lo mthi; kodwa, yintando yam, iya kusikwa kuphela kumgangatho ophantsi. Uyabona, yongeza iNkosi,

indlela abaphazamiseka ngayo aba bantu bangamahlwempu, abaninzi kubo abaphantsi komthi nezixhobo zokuwuncothula? kodwa uyabona, iinzame zabo azinamsebenzi, akukho nto banokuyenza. Yintando yam ebangela ukuba bayeke. Ndiyabazi uburhalarhume nobulukhuni bale mimoya ingendawo, eqine ngaphezu kwexolo lalo mthi apho izembe lingangeni khona; kodwa ndiya kwenza ummangaliso ngobabalo lwam. Ngaphandle kwam amadoda akanakwenza nto. »

Kungelo xesha endathi ndazi kuThixo ukuba yonke into iya kuphela. Kodwa nini? Andazi tu. UThixo uya kulifinyeza ixesha ngenxa yemithandazo yeBandla elingcwele; kodwa andazi nokuba kukufuphi okanye kukude na.

 

Ngoobani imiphefumlo emithandazo yabo kunye nokuzabalaza kwayo kuchukumisa intliziyo kaThixo kwaye imkhokelela ekuziseni phambili umzuzu wokugawulwa komthi.

Ndabona kuThixo abantu abamithandazo yabo yayichukumisa intliziyo kaThixo, bamenzela uhlobo logonyamelo olungcwele, awathi ngalo lo Thixo wothando, ongeyonto ngaphandle kothando, wazivumela ukuba ashukunyiswe. Ndiyazi ngokukodwa ukuba ngababingeleli abalungileyo abancwinayo nabathandaza phantsi kwedyokhwe yenguquko, bemanyana nabafeli-nkolo abangcwele bomhla wethu, abathandaza ngenzondelelo yothando lobuthixo, olunyulu nolugqibeleleyo. Bequbuda phambi kwetrone kaThixo, bemanyene neMvana kaThixo eyabandezelekayo ngenxa yethu, bakhalela inceba kumkhosi weCawa.

Ndisabona kuThixo ukuba aba basebenzi, kunye nezixhobo zabo, bamele iimfazwe ezenzelwe injongo elungileyo, ngeenjongo ezintle, kunye nemithetho esemthethweni. Kodwa uThixo uyakwalela ukubulala nokubulala okwenziwa ngobuqhophololo okanye ubutshaba, ngamafutshane nangaluphi na uhlobo lokuphanga. Ezi zinto zigqithileyo, endaweni yokuqhubela phambili intlangulo yethu, zilibazise.

Ndisabona kuThixo abantu beBandla eliNgcwele, abasalubabalweyo, beshukuma, bathi cwaka kakhulu benza kwaye balwa ngezikrweqe zomoya, bewugawula lo mthi ngemithandazo yabo, emelwa zezi ntambo babethe ngazo. bayawutsala umthi ekutyekeni kwawo, ukuze ungayicinezeli ngokubhekele phaya iBandla elingcwele. Ndibona uThixo njengomkhosi ongcwele, osebenza ngeendlela ezimbini, kodwa ngamxhelo mnye.  Ababingeleli, amadoda nabafazi, abonqulo, kwanabo bonke abantu bakaThixo, abo balwa ngezikhali ezizezomoya, abathe bahlangana ngaxeshanye nomkhosi wabantu bakaThixo, abathe, kwelinye icala; yilweleni injongo elungileyo. Ndisabona kuThixo ukuba kufuneka bonke balwe kunye umlo olungileyo wokholo, kodwa lahlekelwa

kungekhona isibindi, esihlala sinezixhobo zethemba ezandleni, kunye nothando lwe-JC entliziyweni, ngenxa yothando olulwa nalo.

 

Kuyimfuneko ukuba nomonde nokusebenza ngenkalipho, de ifike iyure yeNkosi.

Masibe nomonde ixesha elide. Ukuba iNkosi iyacotha ukusinceda, masizithobe ekuthandeni kwayo okungcwele nokuthandekayo, kwaye sithembe ngokuqinileyo ukuba kungekudala okanye kamva uya kuza. Ewe, uya kuza, ndiphinda ndithi kuni: masilindele iNkosi, kungekhona ngokungasebenzi kodwa ngokusebenza nokulwela uthando lwakhe. Nangona singenakwenza nto ngaphandle kokuba ekunye nathi, kwaye nangona singenathemba lempumelelo de lifike ixesha lakhe, akabafuni abakhonzi abangamagwala, abaphelelwe ziintliziyo, nabanobuvila bebuya kukwazi ukwenza oko.

 

 

(401-405)

 

 

ewubambezela umsebenzi wakhe kunokuba awuqhubele phambili. Masiphinde sizithuthuzele; xa iyure yeNkosi ifika, njengoko yathembisayo ukuba iya kwenza lo mmangaliso mhle, yonke into iya kulunga.

 

§. III.

Emva kwexesha elide, ekugqibeleni umthi uyagawulwa. Uloyiso noxolo lweCawa okwexeshana. Ukuguqulwa kweqela labatshutshisi bakhe. Ukholo lunwenwela kumazwe amaninzi.

 

Ngephanyazo uThixo uya kuwugawula umthi omkhulu. Uvuyo lweCawa, oluya kunabela kumazwe aliqela.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba kuya kufika ixesha laxa lo mthi mkhulu, ngoku siwubona ungalunganga kakhulu ebubini nasebubini, novelisa kuphela iziqhamo ezinetyhefu nezibulalayo, uya kugawulwa. Xa iyure yeNkosi iyakubakho

ekufikeni kwakhe, uyakumisa laa Sathana unamandla oxhobileyo ngomzuzwana, awuwise loo mthi mkhulu, ngokukhawuleza kunokuba uDavide omncinane awise isigebenga esikhulu uGoliyati. Kuya kumenyezwa, kuthiwe, Vuyani, boyisiwe abenzi bobutshinga, Ligorha lengalo kaYehova engusomandla. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba umama wethu iBandla eliNgcwele liya kunabela kwizikumkani ezininzi, nakwiindawo apho wayengasekho kwiinkulungwane. Iya kuvelisa isiqhamo ngokuyintabalala, ngokungathi ukuziphindezelela ngenxa yengqumbo eya kuba nayo ngokucinezelwa kokungahloneli Thixo nangokutshutshiswa ziintshaba zayo.

 

Iziphumo kunye nezizathu zokutshutshiswa kwabantu abangahloneli Thixo ngokuchasene neCawa.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba intshutshiso iye yanda kangakanani na, kwaye njani, njengomlilo otshisayo, utshise yonke into kwiindawo ezithile, kwaye ubangele, ngeentlantsi zayo, amadangatye amaninzi kwamanye amazwe apho kubonakala ngathi akufanelekanga ukungena. Kodwa, ndithini? UThixo uyamangalisa! Umntu okhohlakeleyo uya kumvumela ukuba asebenze okwexeshana, apho alawulwa bububi bakhe. Ke kaloku uNdikhoyo uya kuluzuza uzuko lwakhe ebubini bakhe. Ndibona ekukhanyeni kweNkosi, ukuba ukholo kunye nenkolo engcwele yayisiba buthathaka phantse kuzo zonke izikumkani zobuKristu. UThixo wabavumela ukuba bahlatywe ngentonga yabangenabuthixo, ukuze bavuswe ebuthongweni babo; yaye emva kokuba uThixo ekwanelise ubulungisa bakhe, uya kuthululela ubabalo ngobuninzi kwiBandla lakhe; uya kwandisa ukholo;

 

Ukuvutha kwabantwana beBandla emva kokukhululwa kwabo. Ukuguqulwa kwabatshutshisi abaliqela.

Ndibabona bonke abantu abangamahlwempu, bediniwe bubunzima nobunzima obathunywe nguThixo, bengcangcazela luvuyo nemincili uThixo aya kuyigalela ezintliziyweni zabo. Baya kuthi, Nkosi, ubeke ezintliziyweni zethu uvuyo namandla obutsha; asisaziva ukubulaleka, okanye ukudinwa, okanye iintshutshiso esithe sazinyamezela.

IBandla liya kuba, ngokholo nothando lwayo, livutha ngakumbi kwaye lichume ngakumbi kunangaphambili. Lo mama ulungileyo uya kubona izinto ezininzi ezihlasimlis’ umzimba, nakubatshutshisi bakhe, abaya kufika bazigibisele ezinyaweni zakhe, bamqonde, baze bacele uxolo kuThixo nakuzo zonke izenzo zolwaphulo-mthetho abazenzileyo kuye. Lo mama ongcwele uya kubamkela kwi-charity ye-JC Ewe, lo mama olungileyo, uchukumisekile ngezithembiso zabo ukuba banyaniseke kwaye banyanisekileyo abaguqukayo bentliziyo eguqukayo; uthobekile kwaye waphuke yintlungu  ,

bonke ubomi babo bonke, baya kufumana ezifubeni zabo aba baguqukayo bahluphekayo. Ayisayi kuphinda izigqale njengeentshaba zayo, kodwa iya kubabeka phakathi kwabantwana bayo.

 

Ubude bexesha loxolo lweCawa, oluya kukhatshwa luloyiko oluthile. Iimfazwe rhoqo. Utshintsho kwimithetho yoluntu.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba iBandla liya kunandipha uxolo olunzulu kangangexesha elithile, elibonakala kum lide kancinane, uxolo luya kuba lude ngeli xesha, kunokuba luza kuba phakathi kwangoku nomgwebo jikelele, ngamaxesha ohlaselo. . Okukhona sisondela kumgwebo jikelele, kokukhona uqhankqalazo oluchasene neBandla luya kufinyezwa; + kwaye uxolo oluya kubakho emva koko luya kuba mfutshane, + ngenxa yokuba siya kuqhubela phambili ekupheleni kwexesha, apho kungayi kubakho ixesha elide lokusebenzisa, nokuba lelolungisa, ukwenza okulungileyo, okanye kongendawo. ukwenza ububi.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba iBandla liya kubuyiselwa, kwaye ndithe liya kunandipha uxolo olude kakhulu, kodwa libe lincinci ngoloyiko, kuba liya kubona iimfazwe ezininzi, amaxesha amaninzi, phakathi kookumkani abaninzi kunye neenkosana zezikumkani. Izivumelwano zezi mfazwe ziya kuba mfutshane, kwaye kuya kubakho isiphithiphithi kwimithetho yoluntu.

 

§. IV.

Iingcambu ezine ezinkulu ngequbuliso zihlume amahlumelo azo. Umbono womthi omhle weCawa kunye nemithi emine ephuma kwiingcambu zokuqala. Uhlaselo olutsha oluchasene neCawa, oluloyisayo.

 

Ngoko ke ndithe ngentla umthi uya kugawulwa; kodwa njengoko iya kugawulwa kuphela kumgangatho ophantsi, iingcambu ezine ziya kuhluma ububi bazo obuqhelekileyo, obuya kuba bubi ngakumbi kunangaphambili. Nditshilo kananjalo ngasentla ukuba uxolo lweBandla, xa libuyisiwe, ngeli xesha liya kuba lithuba elide. Ngokumalunga neengcambu ezine, ndazibona, malunga namashumi amathathu eminyaka eyadlulayo (1), ngolu hlobo.

(1) UDade wakuyalela oku kungedlulanga i-1798, unyaka wokufa kwakhe. Umbono athetha ngawo ke wenzeka, malunga nonyaka we-1768.

 

(406-410)

 

Umbono womthi omhle omele iBandla, kunye nemithi emine emikhulu ephuma kwiingcambu ezine zomthi wokuqala, umfuziselo wokungahloneli Thixo. IBandla libanqumle ngonyawo.

UMoya kaYehova wandikhokelela entabeni ephakamileyo, apho ndabona umthi omkhulu unamasebe, uneentyatyambo neziqhamo, iintlobo-ntlobo zezityalo, uhlaza oluziintlobo ngeentlobo, nobuhle bawo obukhulu, nobuhle beentlobo ngeentlobo zeziqhamo zawo. jonga iliso elincomekayo. Ishumi elinesihlanu okanye amashumi amabini eemitha ukusuka kulo mthi mhle, ndabona iijethi ezine zinyuka ukusuka emhlabeni zijongene enye kwenye, kwisikwere, kunye neenyawo ezine okanye ezintlanu ukuhlukana. Ngephanyazo aba bane bakhula ngokulinganayo, betyhala iikomityi zabo phezulu kulo mthi mhle uzele ziziqhamo, baza baba nkulu njengethanga, baluhlaza kakhulu, baza bathi tye okweentolo. Kwaoko ndeva abantu abaliqela bethetha, ababesemthini ozaliswe ziziqhamo, baza bathi: “Nanga amarhamncwa, eza kuwenza amafu umthi wethu; bamele bangasikwa, kuba babi kwaye iziqhamo zabo zikrakra kakhulu. Kwangaxeshanye kwathi gqi abasebenzi abazisarha zaya kutsho kumgangatho osezantsi.

Kwaziswa kum ukuba lo mthi mkhulu nomhle kangaka, uzele ziziqhamo, umele iBandla, nokuba la magqabi omane endiwabonileyo ekhula, atshabalalisa kwaoko, aziintshaba zeBandla, ezathi, emva kokuba zibumbile bafihla iiprojekthi zabo kunye namayelenqe abo, babeza kukhawuleza bafike ngenkuthalo yonke ukuba bahlasele umama wethu iBandla elingcwele, elimelwe ngulo mthi mhle. Ndisabona kuThixo ukuba iingcambu ezine zalo mthi zingumfanekiso omele uhlanga. (1)

(1) UDade wahlula ngokucacileyo izinto ezimbini apha: 1 ° iijethi ezine eziphuma kwiingcambu ezine, ezimele iintshaba zeCawa okanye iinkokeli zabangendawo; 2 iingcambu ezine ezifihlakeleyo eziphantsi komhlaba, ezichaza ingxokolo, abantu (okanye oko alibiza ngokuba luhlanga , ngokwegama elisetyenziswe ngexesha lakhe), abavuma ukuwexulwa nokulahlekiswa ngabangendawo. Eli nqaku liya kuba luncedo kakhulu ekuqondeni oku kulandelayo.

 

Ukuphuhliswa kombono wesiprofeto. Amayelenqe afihlakeleyo enziwa ngokuchasene neCawa ngokufihlakeleyo. Iintshaba zeBandla ziyazibonakalisa ngesiquphe. Uyawalahla esifubeni sakhe.

Nantsi kwakhona into endiyibonayo ekukhanyeni kukaThixo, kumaxesha azayo, oko kukuthi, ekuhambeni kweenkulungwane, ukusuka apha ukuya kumgwebo jikelele.

ICawe iseza kubandezeleka kakhulu. Uhlaselo lokuqala ekuya kufuneka alubambe emva kolu hlaselo lwakhe ngoku luya kuvela kumoya kaSathana, oya kuvusa amaqela kunye neendibano ngokuchasene naye. Kuya kubakho nabo baya kuzifihla kwiindawo ezingaphantsi komhlaba ukwenza izicwangciso zabo zobudemon. Baya kusebenzisa iidemon, ubugcisa bomlingo nobugqi, nako konke oku ngomsindo wabo noburhalarhume babo, ukuba bahlasele iBandla, nokubhangisa nokutshabalalisa inkolo. Ziya kuthi ke zivele ngesiquphe, kwaye phantse ngokukhawuleza njengoko ndabona iijethi ezine ziphuma emhlabeni, apho zazifihlwe khona. Emva koko baya kubonisa imisebenzi yabo, kwaye ngaloo ndlela siya kuqonda iiprojekthi zabo kunye nobubi babo bobubi.

Nangona kunjalo, baya kuzibonakalisa bekwisixhobo esiya kutsala iingqondo ezifuna ukwazi kunye namadoda enkolo encinci. Ngamaqhinga abo baya kuzama ukuzifaka ezingqondweni, babonise wonke umntu ukuba iindlela zabo zilungile kwaye zifanelekile kwingqondo yomntu wonke. Oku kufanekiselwa  ngamahlumelo amane endiwabonileyo, awaba yimithi emine emitsha, ukubonakala kwayo, ethe tye, elungelelaniswe kakuhle, nohlaza oluhle. Bonke baya kuba nembonakalo yokuphumelela ekukhohliseni kakuhle, kwaye baya kukholelwa ukuba benza inkqubela enkulu ngobubi babo. Kodwa unokwenza ntoni umoya kaSathana nxamnye noThixo xa ufuna ukumbhukuqa  ! Ndibona kuThixo ukuba ulawulo lwabo, okanye ukuba  iprojekthi yabo

ayizukuhlala ixesha elide. UMoya oyiNgcwele, olawula umama wethu iBandla eliNgcwele, uya kubazisa abantwana bakhe ukuba bangamagqirha nabakhohlisayo abafuna ukubahenda. Emva koko iBandla liya kugqiba ngokukhanya koMoya oyiNgcwele, ukuba le yimithi embi kunye namadlelo asendle, aya kuvelisa kuphela iziqhamo ezikrakra, kwaye kufuneka zigawulwe kwaye zigawulwe ngokukhawuleza.

 

Nangona kunjalo, banexesha elaneleyo lokuphumelela abantu abaninzi kwiqela labo.

Ndibona ngale nto kuThixo ukuba izicwangciso zabo ziya kutshitshiswa ngokukhawuleza.

Kodwa xa nditsho ngokukhawuleza, asikuko ukuba ndifuna ukuthetha ukuba iya kuthatha inyanga kuphela, unyaka. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba oku kusenokuqhubeka eminye iminyaka eliqela, kwaye andiboni ukuba iBandla licinezelwe ngabalungiseleli balo, okanye kubulungiseleli babo obungcwele. Kodwa ngelishwa kuya kubakho abantu abaninzi, kuzo zombini izini, abaya kuzivumela ukuba bakhohliswe yimilingo yabo. Baya kuzikholelwa iintetho zabo ezibubuxoki kangangokuba baqale ukuzilandela.

 

§. v.

Abangendawo baphinda bazifihle phantsi komhlaba, baze babhale iincwadi eziyingozi. Inkqubela yabo ekhawulezayo nefihlakeleyo. Ukuhanahanisa kukaMtyholi kwabo banxulumana nabo. Beneqhayiya ngempumelelo yabo, baphuma kwiindawo zabo zokurhoxa, baze bakhohlise abantu ngeempawu zabo ezintle ezibubuxoki nezibonakalayo.

Abo baqhathiweyo, besoyika ukubhaqwa liBandla, benza phakathi kwabo icebo elicekisekayo lokuhanahanisa.

Ngethuba le qhinga, njengoko ndiphinda ndiphinda, liya kuhlala ixesha elide, baya kwenza konke okusemandleni ukufihla kwiCawa. Kodwa bakubona ababingeleli abathile, nokuba semizini okanye emaphandleni, ukuba umsi waloo mlilo uqalekisiweyo, bosuka basukele phezulu kubantu abo, baya kuthi bakhangele kubo iimpawu zobuthixo, baze bahluke kancinane kuwo amasiko alungileyo. yeBandla eliNgcwele.

Nali ke iqhinga eliya kusetyenziswa nguSathana, nomyalelo oqalekisiweyo oya kunikelwa ngaba banxulumani banelishwa: Kulumkeleni ukubonwa nokubhaqwa. Kodwa ukuba kwenzeka ukuba siqaphele into kwaye sibe nexhala, masithathele ingqalelo enkulu, nangona sibeka ubomi bethu emngciphekweni, singatsho ukuba yintoni na, kwaye sifumanisa imfihlo yethu nakubani na. Kodwa endaweni yoko masizenze sithobele abalungiseleli, njengabantwana abancinane abangenachaso nokungabi nakuzinceda. Masizithobe ngembonakalo; masivume njengoko sithanda, kwaye sisondele kwimithendeleko njengoko umvumi wethu ebona kufanelekile. Ukuba ke yena usixhalabele ngento ephathelele imfihlelo yethu, simele sibonise kuye ukuba asiyazi ngokupheleleyo le nto, kwaye senze njengabasemzini, ngokungathi lo mbandela wawungaqhelekanga kuthi. Ukuba uthe wasoyisa ngento esiyibonayo ukuba siyenze, okanye ngelizwi elithile esiviwe silithetha, esafumana nokuba namangqina, masingaxambulisani, masenze ngoxolo, sibe nobulali; nokuba sivume into ukuba thina

Abarhwebi ekugqibeleni baphuma kwiindawo zabo zokurhoxa. Imbandezelo enkulu yeBandla.

Xa bebona ukuba baphumelele inani labafundi abaphantse babe likhulu njengoko kufuneka ukumisa ubukumkani, baya kuthi ke kubo: Simele sibonakale kwaye sizise iinjongo zethu ezilungileyo ekukhanyeni. Ke ezi ngcuka ziqwengayo ziya kuphuma emiqolombeni yabo, zigqutywe ngofele lwempahla emfutshane; baya kuba ziingcuka zokwenene eziqwengayo, ezilambileyo, ezilungele ukuqwenga imiphefumlo. Owu indlela endinosizi ngayo iBandla elingcwele! Hayi indlela ekuya kufuneka ibandezeleke ngayo ziintshaba zayo! iya kuhlaselwa, ibekelwe ngeenxa zonke, ngabasemzini, nabanquli-zithixo, kwanangabantwana bayo, abaya kuthi, njengamarhamba, iziqwenge izibilini zayo, babe secaleni kwayo neentshaba zayo, ukuba bayilwe.

iya kuhlala ide ibe yimini yomgwebo, njengoko ndazileyo ngoThixo, njengoko ndabhalayo ngokuthobela, kolunye umqulu, kwiminyaka emininzi eyadlulayo  ;

Yiyo le nto ndibeka apha kuphela oko ndikholelwa ukuba andizange ndikubeke kwenye, kwaye oko ndazi ukususela kuThixo ngalo mbandela.

 

Bayakhohlisa kwaye balahlekise ngobuhle babo bobuxoki, kwaye bayifihla imfundiso yabo eqalekisiweyo.

Ndinika ingxelo apha ukuba esi sizwe singendawo siyakuzibonakalisa njani na ekusondeleni kwaso kwiBandla eliNgcwele. Omnye uya kubona, umntu uya kuva malunga nezenzo zokuzinikela, kunye nobunzima benani elikhulu labantu. Omnye uya kubona abemi basezidolophini benikela ngesisa esikhulu kumahlwempu, kwaye bade banike iimali ezininzi eCaweni. Akuphelelanga apho, baya kuthengisa nempahla yelifa labo, nokuba bazise eluntwini ukuba bazihluba phantse yonke into ukuze basebenzise uthando. Baza kunika imvume yokwakha izibhedlele, izindlu zeemonki, ezinye kwisixeko esinye, kunye nezinye kwesinye. Baya kuseka amabandla kunye noluntu; eya kwenza umonakalo omkhulu eBandleni, ngokubonakala kobuthixo nothando oluya kuthi luchaphazele. Iirectors ezininzi (1), ukuzinikela.

(1) Siyazi ukuba eBrittany ababingeleli babizwa ngamagama abefundisi .

 

Ummangaliso weBandla elihlanganisana kwibhunga, liyalela ukuba liwabeke iliso, aze ekugqibeleni afumanise ukuhanahanisa kwawo.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba ababingeleli nabo bonke abalungiseleli beNkosi baya kukhwankqiswa lutshintsho olunjalo, ngaphandle kokuba kubekho ubuthunywa neentshumayelo ezininzi kunesiqhelo. Kuya kubakho abalungiseleli beNkosi, abaya kuthi, bekhanyiselwe ngakumbi nguMoya oyiNgcwele, babanjwe luloyiko, bengaqinisekanga ukuba kuya kwehla njani na konke oku, nokuba kuya kuba yintoni na umphumo womlilo omkhulu kangaka, oya kunwebeka kunye nomlilo. isantya esikhulu.

Inani elikhulu lemiphefumlo elahlekisiweyo; ngenxa yomtsalane wabo.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba ukusukela kwixesha abaqala ngalo ukuzivakalisa eBandleni, kude kube lixesha lokuba iBandla lifumanise, sisizwe esibi. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba ukususela kwixesha xa baya kuphuma emiqolombeni  yabo, kude kube lixesha apho iBandla liya kubuqonda ububi babo, ixesha elide liya kudlula, mhlawumbi isiqingatha senkulungwane, ngaphezulu okanye ngaphantsi, andinakuyithetha ngokuthe ngqo. Ngalo lonke eli xesha urhwebo lwabo lobudemon kunye nokuhanahanisa kwabo okukhohlakeleyo, okuya kubenza babukeke njengabangcwele, kuya kutsala inani elikhulu lemiphefumlo ekuvukeni kwabo; ukuze lo msebenzi wobugwenxa uhlale ukhula, kwaye uya kuhlala kude kube sekupheleni kwehlabathi, esoloko etshutshisa umama wethu iBandla elingcwele  .

Ndibona kwakhona kuThixo ukuba abona bantu baphantsi kokulahlekiswa ngamaqhinga kasathana okanye ngamaqhinga abangendawo baya kuba ngabo bathi, behexa elukholweni, babe nokholo olufileyo ezintliziyweni zabo, oko kukuthi yithi, ngaphandle kokuqina kwaye ngaphandle komsebenzi, kwaye oko kuya kunikela indawo kwimvakalelo yendalo eyonakeleyo, kumoya wokufuna ukwazi, ukurhawuzelela, kwaye ngokungathi kukukhathazeka okuthile kwenkanuko yendalo, yolwazi okanye yokufunda yonke into. kwenzeka kwezi zinto zintle zonqulo.

Njengoko besenditshilo, phakathi kwangoku nomgwebo akuyi kuphinda kubonwe ubuqhetseba obungaka phantsi kwebala lenkolo, ukuzinikela okungaka nobungcwele ngenkangeleko nodumo, njengoko ndibona aba bahanahanisi, ndathetha nabo, benyuka. phezu kwabakhukhumeleyo, nabazele likratshi nokuqhatha

Lusifa, thetha kakuhle; baya kutsalela kubo yonke imiphefumlo elilize endisandul’ ukuthetha ngayo, ephethe phantse igama lobuKristu kuphela. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba baya kubaleka kuzo zonke ezi zinto zintsha kwaye bazivumele ukuba babanjwe ngokulula nangendlela eyomeleleyo kunokuba abalobi babambisa iintlanzi kwiiseyile zabo (1).

(1) Isikhephe sokuloba.

 

Indlela yokuphepha ukuhenda.

Ndisabona kuThixo ukuba, ukuze aphephe amashwa angaka ngoncedo lobabalo, umntu makabambelele elukholweni, angadinwa kukulwa neentshaba zakhe, eme aqine okwelitye phakathi elwandle. onke macala amaza alo, ukuba ahlale ekhumbula iinkolelo zayo zokuqala, ukuze umthetho ongcwele kunye nobuthixo we-JC uhlale uxhasa kunye nomgaqo wokuziphatha kwethu kude kube yinto yokugqibela yobomi bethu.

Egameni likaThixo, masiyigxothe ezingqondweni zethu yonke inkanuko kunye nayo yonke inkanuko yalo lonke ukuzinikela okumangalisayo okunenkangeleko entle. ngaphandle, kwaye elibengezela emehlweni ehlabathi phantsi kombala wobungcwele nobungcwele. Ngenxa yothando lukaThixo, masizikhabe ngaw’ omane zonke ezi zinto zingaqhelekanga nezingaqhelekanga, siqhubele phambili ishishini losindiso lwethu ngoloyiko nangokungcangcazela. Masibeke ukholo lwethu, uthando lwethu kunye nethemba lethu kuThixo nakumama wethu iBandla elingcwele, kwaye masizifihle, njengamantshontsho amancinci, phantsi kwamaphiko ekhuselo lakhe elingcwele: akayi kusishiya, kwaye uya kuhlala encedisa. kuthi ngezona zihlandlo zilusizi neziyingozi, ngaphandle kokuba thina ngokwethu simshiya kuqala, njengabantwana abangenambulelo nabavukelayo, ukuba sibaleke siye kuzimanya neentshaba zakhe size silwe nazo  .

 

§. VI.

Iindlela zomoya ezisetyenziswe yiCawe kwinkangala engaka. Inani elikhulu lemiphefumlo ekhohlisiweyo iyaguqulwa. Ingqumbo nentiyo yabahanahanisi; imfundiso yabo elisikizi. Baya kuthetha neenkokeli zabo.

Ukuguqulwa okukrelekrele kweenkokeli ezininzi nabaxhasi bakaSathana, ababa ziingcwele nabafeli-nkolo.

 

ICawe iyalela uzilo, imingcelele, imithandazo yasesidlangalaleni, ubufundisi, njl.

Oku kuya kwenzeka xa abahanahanisi beqonda ukuba iBandla elingcwele libufumene ububi babo. Kwakamsinyane nje ukuba iBandla liluqonde olu hlanga lugqwethekileyo oluya kulahlekisa abantu abathembekileyo phantsi kwesithunzi nangemibala yokuzinikela, kuya kuvela kwiCawa eNgcwele uthuthuzelelo oluthile, kunye nemvakalelo engayi kugqabhuka nangona kunjalo. Kodwa ndibona kuThixo ukuba iBandla, ukuze ngokuqinisekileyo lazise umxholo wembandezelo yalo, liya kuzixhobisa ngokupheleleyo ngezixhobo zalo zomoya. Kuya kumiselwa uzilo, umngcelele nemithandazo yasesidlangalaleni; imisebenzi iya kwenziwa phantse kuzo zonke izixeko nasemaphandleni, iiyure ezingamashumi amane ziya kusekwa kwiindawo ezininzi; abashumayeli baya kudinwa kukuthetha ilizwi likaThixo; kwaye, kule meko, kuya kubonakala ngathi ubabalo lukaThixo luya kubaxhasa, ngokungathi abatyhafi. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba kwiintshumayelo zabo baya kuhlala bechukumisa le ngongoma yelishwa lokuhanahanisa, ngaphandle, nangona kunjalo, babize nabani na; nangona kunjalo baya kukhankanya iinyani ezimbalwa, bephepha ukunika nabani na ithuba lokuphoxa.

 

IiJubiles kuzo zonke izikumkani zamaKatolika. Ukuguqulwa kwemiphefumlo emininzi elahlekisiweyo nelahlekisiweyo.

UBawo Oyingcwele uPopu, oyintloko yeCawa engcwele, uya kumisela iJubhile kuzo zonke izikumkani zamaKristu. Imithandazo emininzi kangaka nemisebenzi emininzi elungileyo ayiyi kuba lilize. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba oku kuya kushenxisa kwinkohliso inani lemiphefumlo eyathi, ikholelwa ukuba ilandela eyona igqibeleleyo, yaziphosela kwiqela elingalunganga, kwaye ngubani oya kuyilahla ngeentshumayelo ezivileyo, nangokutshutshisa okuhle. abatyali betyala abaya kubaphonononga ngokucokisekileyo kwinkundla yezohlwayo. Kungezi zenzo eziluncedo kangangokuba abavumayo baya kubamba imiphefumlo emininzi eya kuhexa kwaye ilungele

nikelani kwiqela elingalunganga, kwaye eliya kuzibandakanya ngakumbi kunangaphambili elukholweni nakwiNkolo engcwele.

 

Umsindo kunye nobudenge babahanahanisi ngokuzibona bebhencekile ngokupheleleyo.

Uhlanga olubi, ngaphandle kokubangela nantoni na ngaphandle, luya kufa ngokukrakra ngaphakathi kwalo: luya kuqaphela olu tshintsho lungakwazi ukuthetha nto; kodwa xa aba bahanahanisi bedibene bonke kunye baya kwazi ngokuqinisekileyo ukuba babhaqiwe, baya kuvutha ngumsindo phantsi komhlaba wabo. Ingathi ndibabona benjengengqekembe yeengonyama ezinomsindo nokuphelelwa lithemba, zinyathela phantsi, zitshixizela amazinyo, zikrazula iinwele, ziqhwabelana ngempama, zisithi: kukungakhathali, kukungcatsha. Ngandlel’ ithile, baya kuba bechanile, kuba ndibona kuThixo ukuba imiphefumlo eya kuguquka ize ilishiye iqela labo, iya kubagxeka eCaweni, ize izivakalise kuyo iziphoso zabo nokholo lwabo olubi; ukuze iBandla eliNgcwele lingabi sabakho kuwo nawaphi na amathandabuzo ngabo

imilinganiselo embi. Bonke abaphathiswa be-JC, njengoko befumana izinto ezintsha, baya kuzixhobisa ngezixhobo ezintsha zomoya ukulwa nazo zonke izinto ezimbi.

 

Iimpazamo zabo, nenjongo yabo yokutshabalalisa iBandla.

UThixo undazise ngeempazamo ezininzi abaya kuzifaka emthethweni wabo, ngakumbi ezo zibhekiselele kwiNtshumayelo eNgcwele yeLizwi elinguNaphakade, elafakwa kwisibeleko seNtombi Enyulu uMariya, owaba ngumntu ngokumanyana nobuntu bethu. indalo, yaye ngubani na ngaloo nto uThixo oyinyaniso nomntu oyinyaniso, uThixo nomntu ngokupheleleyo. Iya kuba yile mfihlakalo imnandi yenkolo yethu engcwele, eya kuhlaselwa ngogonyamelo ngakumbi, kwaye baya kwenza ngathi bayayibhangisa ngokupheleleyo. Owu miphefumlo eyonwabileyo uThixo aya kuyinika ubabalo lokutshutshiswa nokubulawa ngenxa yenyaniso yale mfihlelo ithandekayo! Ndibona kuThixo ukuba kuya kuphalala igazi elininzi kwiBandla elingcwele ngenxa  yezi nyaniso zinkulu. Nditsho ngezi nyaniso zinkulu, zeziphi  iimfihlelo ezingcwele

zivalelwe kwimfihlelo ethandekayo yokuzalwa komntu! Yeha! Yeha! Yeha! bekuya kuba yimfuneko, ukuba uThixo wayenobabalo, ukulila iinyembezi zegazi, okanye kunoko afe ngenxa yeentlungu, xa umntu ecinga ukuba abangendawo bafuna ukuphelisa le mfihlelo intle yokuzalwa kweLizwi.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba baya kubanga ukuba basibhangise kwaye basitshabalalise ngokupheleleyo Umama weBandla eliNgcwele. Kwaye eneneni, ukuba uThixo, njengoko esithembisile, ebengayi kuyixhasa kwaye ayilawule ngoMoya wakhe oyiNgcwele, ngaba umama wethu olungileyo iBandla elingcwele, umlingane weJC, ebengayi kubhangiswa? Wayenako na ukumelana nobushushu besihogo nowabantu? Kule ngongoma, ndibona kuThixo ukuba injongo yabo iya kuba kukubhangisa inkolo yethu engcwele ngokupheleleyo. Lo uzenza uMesiya, baya kuthi kubo ngokwabo, uzenze intloko yenkolo yamaKristu; kufuneka sitshabalalise konke oko akumiseleyo waza wakumisela emthethweni wabo ukuziphatha kwabo. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba zonke ezi sathelayithi aziyi kuphinda zifune ukubandezeleka kwiCawa eNgcwele, nababingeleli, okanye idini, okanye isibingelelo, okanye uvumo, okanye umthendeleko, okanye nawuphi na umthendeleko. Abayi kufuna kungabikho mqondiso wonqulo lwethu olungcwele ukuba ubonakale, AmaKristu.

 

Iyelenqe labangendawo ekuphelelweni lithemba. Isigqibo sokuya kudibana neenkosi zabo kwesona sixeko sidumileyo.

Ndisabona kuThixo ukuba emva komsindo nokuphelelwa lithemba kwaba bakhohlakeleyo babehlanganisene kwiindawo zabo eziphantsi, njengoko besenditshilo ngasentla, nali iyelenqe elibi abaya kulibumba: Baya kuthi phakathi kwabo, Asisenakuphinda senze okulungileyo ngokwethu. umthetho; abalungiseleli basibhaqile, kwaye nathi asinakuphinda sisebenzise ubulungiseleli babo; bayala kuthi ukuxolelwa. Sibona ngokucacileyo ukuba abasafuni ukuba sinxibelelane nabanye, kwaye baphulukene noluvo oluhle ababenalo ngathi; ke apha siphulukene nembeko nodumo kuye wonke umntu, kunye nathi zonke iintsapho zethu. Side siqonde ukuba abantu abaqhelekileyo, kunokuba basihlonele, njengoko bebesenza ngaphambili, bayasiphepha ngomoya othile wendelelo. Ke nasi isisombululo baya kuthabatha: Kufuneka, baya kuthi, sithathe iingcebiso neengcebiso kwiinkosi zethu, ezingababhali bomthetho wethu kunye nabawisi-mthetho bethu. Ityala libaluleke kakhulu.

 

Imbandezelo nokunxunguphala kwabathetheli nebandla lonke.

Ngenxa yoko, baya kukhangela iinkosi neenkokeli zabo, eziya kufihlwa kwesona sixeko sidumileyo. Apho baya kufumana inani elikhulu

abalingane babo, abaya kuba baye kwiinkosi zabo kwisifundo esifanayo. Ngamnye kubo uya kuxela iindaba zelizwe lakhe, kwaye uya kwabelana ngenkxalabo yakhe kunye nenkxwaleko yakhe kumxholo wemiqobo iBandla eliNgcwele eliya kuyibeka kwiiprojekthi zabo. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba iingxelo ezahlukeneyo abaya kuzenza kwiinkokeli ziya kubaphazamisa kwaye bazoyike; uloyiko luya kuyibamba intliziyo yabo, bathi, bedibene nesazela sabo, babakhathaze, bayizalise iminkqangiyelo yabo ngeento ezimangalisayo. Abasayi kuba sazana ukuba bazothini omnye komnye kwaye babuzana ntoni na. UThixo uya kubavumela ukuba babe noloyiko oloyikekayo lukamama wethu ongcwele iBandla. Boyika ke, bathi ezintliziyweni zabo, Siya kuthini na? Sibhaqiwe! Asisayi kuphinda sivunyelwe ukuhlala phakathi kwabathembekileyo, kwaye, ngaphezu koko,

 

Ubabalo luphembelela kwabaninzi umnqweno wokuzithoba eCaweni.

Ubabalo, oluthi ngenceba kaThixo lusoloko lubajongile nabona babona bakhulu, luya kuthi ke lukhangele ukuba alunakungena na kwizazela zabo ezikhathazekileyo nezothuso. Into endiyibonayo kuThixo kukuba kuya kubakho abaliqela, kweli qela lesathelayithi, abaya kuthetha ngesiphumo sobabalo olungcwele, oluya kusebenza kubo bengazi. Olu lulwimi abaza kusebenzisa kule ndibano ilishwa, apho wonke umntu uya kuthetha ngaphandle kokuxazulula nto. Izifundo, kunye neenkokeli, ziya kwahlulwa kwiimvakalelo zabo zobudemon. Amaqela ngamaqela aya kusekwa, ngokwezimvo ezahlukeneyo. Siya kwenza ii-cabals ezincinci, phambi kweenkokheli, ezithi ngamanye amaxesha zingafuni ukumamela okanye ukuphendula izicelo. Yile ngongoma apho ubabalo luya kubamba uloyiso, ngokubeka olu lwimi emilonyeni yabaninzi: Siya kwenza ntoni na? siya kuba sisingcikivo seBandla, ukuba asinikezeli hayi

Kule ndibano ebulalayo, abo baya kuba nethamsanqa lokuba nezi mvakalelo ngesiphumo sobabalo baya kufunana kwaye benze ibhande elahlukileyo. Baya kukhuthazana, besithi, Masingachithi xesha; masingaxhaleli ukuba kuya kubakho ntoni na kubo, kwaneendlela abaya kuzenza.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba ubabalo lwakhe luvelisa iziphumo ezimangalisayo xa lufumana indlela yokungena entliziyweni yomoni. Ndiyabona ukuba kulo mkhosi, apho ubabalo luqala khona ukuphumelela, kuya kubakho iinkosi ezininzi, abakhafuli abaninzi kunye nabathakathi abaninzi, abaya kushiya le ndibano engathandekiyo ngexesha elifanayo. Olu babalo lungcwele luya kube sele lubaphembelela ngobukhalipha obukhulu, kangangokuba luya kubabangela ukuba bathi ndlela-ntle yanaphakade  kwabangendawo xa bemka; baza kuthi kubo ngokuvakalayo, kungathi bangasenakoyika, Yenzani ngoko nithanda ngako; ngokuba asisakho phakathi kwenu, sisuka siye ke kwaoko, sinentliziyo engenanceba, singene ebandleni. . Emva koko baya kubaleka ngesantya esikhulu, hleze bamiswe ziisathelayithi  .

 

Ukunyaniseka kokuguquka kwabo kunye nokuzohlwaya.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba lo mkhosi wonwabileyo, uhlanganiswe ngamandla ngolu hlobo lubabalo, kwaye ngexeshana elifutshane, uya kuhamba ngokuthe ngqo apho ubabalo luya kulikhokelela khona. Ndibona nokuba akasayi kuba nangxaki yokuqatshelwa liBandla eliNgcwele ukuba uguquke ngokwenene, kuba uMoya oyiNgcwele uya kubakhanyisela abalungiseleli beNkosi.

Xa aboni abaguqukileyo bezahlule ngolo hlobo kweli qela lobudemon, baze barhoxa kwiindawo zabo ezingaphantsi komhlaba, aba baguqukileyo bangamahlwempu baya kukuphepha ngenyameko ukuhlangana nabo bahamba nabo, ngoloyiko nangoloyiko lokuba baya kuphinda bababambe kwakhona.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba aba baguqukayo bokwenyaniso baya kuthembeka elubabalweni; ngoko  uThixo uya kuqhubeka ebakhusela. UMoya oyiNgcwele uya kubakhanyisela abalungiseleli beBandla ngobabalo olungummangaliso, aze abathintele ngokuthi kubo: Musani ukoyika ukwamkela inguquko kwaba bangaboni bangamahlwempu abaza kuza kuthetha kuni. abaseziingcuka eziqwengayo, njengangaphambili, zigqutywe iimfele zeegusha; Abayi kuphinda baniphathele iingxowa zamali zokugubungela uhanahaniso lwabo; kodwa baya kuzibeka ezinyaweni zakho iintliziyo zabo zityumkile, zithobekile kwaye zaphukile ngenxa yokuba bemonile  uThixo.

 

Ukuzondelela kwabo ukulungisa amahlazo abo. Uguquko oluninzi lwenze ngomzekelo wabo nangamazwi abo. Isivuno sesibini, siphantse sibe ninzi njengesokuqala.

Ndiyabona ke kuThixo ukuba ngamnye kwaba baguqukayo uya kuqala abonakale kubaphathi bezixeko okanye basemaphandleni; abayi koyika kukwazisa, nkqu ekuhleni, into ababeyiyo ngaphambili; baya kwamkelwa ngenceba enkulu kubalungiseleli beNkosi. Aba baguqukayo balungileyo, bebona ukuba uThixo ubanika ubabalo oluninzi, baya kuzaliswa ngumbulelo nothando lukaThixo, kangangokuba, ekuphenduleni, ngamnye kubo uya kubuyela kwintsapho yakhe ukuze abongoze abafazi babo, abantwana babo nezicaka zabo. Abayi kuphelela apho, baya kuhamba njengabashumayeli abashumayela ngelizwi eliphantsi, ukuya kufundisa abazali babo, abahlobo babo, nabo bonke abantu ababaziyo ukuba baye banikela ngohanahaniso. Ubabalo luya kuzenza lube nesiqhamo kakhulu kwesi sihlandlo kangangokuba uguquko oluncomekayo luya kubonwa macala onke, kwaye aboni bazalise amabandla ukuba beze kwinkundla yezohlwayo. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba kuya kufana nesivuno sesibini sobabalo loMoya oyiNgcwele. Uya kuguqulwa kwesi sihlandlo sesibini, ngenxa ye-austerities kunye nemithandazo eya kwenziwa yiCawe, phantse aboni abaninzi njengoko eya kuba eguqulwe okokuqala ngamamishini, inzila kunye nejubhili endithethe ngayo.

 

Baba ngabangcwele, bona, abantwana babo, nabazukulwana babo, kwaye uThixo ubanika ubabalo lokufela ukholo.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba aba baguqukayo bokwenyaniso baya kuba ngabangcwele, nokuba baya kuba nolonwabo lokuba abantwana babo, nabantwana babantwana babo, nabo baya kuba njalo; kwaye uThixo uya kubanika ubabalo lokufela ukholo, ekusondeleni kokufika komchasi-Kristu, lo mesiya uzenza ngathi.

 

Ihambo encomekayo yobabalo kuboni abakhulu. Uguquko lwenene lwenzeka ngokholo, ithemba nothando.

Oku kuya kuvelisa umama wethu iCawa eNgcwele, eya kuthi, ngezixhobo zakhe zomoya, itsalele eNkosini isihlwele esingenakubalwa semiphefumlo. Ngaphandle kwenyambalala yaboni abaya kuguqulwa ngobuthunywa, iintshumayelo kunye nenkundla yezohlwayo, olunjani lona ubabalo olunamandla olungayi kufunyanwa kulo mkhosi ndigqiba kuthetha ngawo! Ewe, eyona nto ndiyithanda ngakumbi apha, kwaye into endibeka ecaleni kwam, kukubona aboni abahluphekayo abathi, ngobubi babo kunye nolwaphulo-mthetho oluqokelelweyo, baya kuba nonyawo olunye phantse esihogweni, abaya kuzifumana bephakathi kwendibano. njengabo, apho baya kuva kuphela iintetho kunye namacebo kaMtyholi, izithuko nezinyeliso nxamnye noThixo kunye neBandla eliNgcwele, kwaye apho bonke baya kuvutha ngumsindo ngenxa yokuphelelwa lithemba, kukubona aba boni abangamahlwempu.

siguqulwe ngobabalo. Onjani wona ummangaliso! Kusesazulwini sesi sigqubuthelo esingcwele apho ubabalo luya kuthi luzimise kubo, luze luzame, phakathi kwesi siphithiphithi sasemhlabeni, ukuba lunokuvela ekukhanyeni lungene ezintliziyweni zabo. Olu babalo lungcwele, ngokulunga kukaJ.

Lungaphi uloyiso oluya kuzuza ubabalo kumlo wokuqala! Abo bawuthobelayo baya kuzifumana sele bemanyene ukuze basebenzele inguquko egqibeleleyo.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba intshukumo yokuqala yolu babalo iya kubakhokelela ekubeni bawulahle ngentliziyo yabo yonke umthetho wabo ongendawo, bebabonisa ukuba baye baphazama ngokuhambisana nabo. Okwesibini, ndibona izidima zokholo, ithemba, nothando zilawula iintliziyo zabo: Ndibona kuThixo ukusebenza kokholo, isidima esingaphezu kweemvakalelo, ngokomoya, ngcwele, kunye nobuthixo, kwaye oluvelisa ubuhle obunjalo. iziqhamo, uya kwenza ngaphakathi aba boni bangamahlwempu, kamsinya nje bawuvulele ucango ezintliziyweni zabo kuye. Esazulwini sobumnyama besihogo needemon apho iintliziyo zabo zirhangqwe ngabo, olu kholo luphilayo, njengobabalo oluloyiso, lufika ekukhanyeni, luzise ukukhanya nokukhanya naphi na apho luhamba khona, ndithetha kulo lonke elingaphakathi lomphefumlo. nakwiindawo zayo eziphezulu, iidemon zizikhupha ebumnyameni; linika uxolo, likhanyisela ingqondo, liphakamise ukuqonda, ukuze nimazi uThixo. Ngolu lwazi uyichukumisa intliziyo, aze amise isihlalo sakhe apho ngethemba nothando; kuba ngokuqhelekileyo ezi mpawu zintathu azinakwahlulwa, okanye, ukuba zahluliwe, ziye zixengaxenge kwaye zingabonakali, ngokokude ziphulukane, ngokungathi kunjalo, igama elithi izidima.

 

§. VII.

Emva kokuguqulwa kweqela labo iinkokeli zendibano engangcwele zazinikela enkonzweni kaSathana. Uyabazisa aze abathembise umchasi-Kristu njengenkokeli yabo. Izifungo

execrable ngokuchasene JC Umthetho Anti-Christian wafunga kwaye watyikitywa. Imvukelo eyoyikekayo evela esihogweni ngokuchasene neCawa.

 

 

Abantu abangahloneli Thixo abaphelelwe lithemba bacela uncedo kuSathana. Ukhuseleko lukaThixo phezu kwabaguqukayo abatsha.

Ndiqhubeka ndibhala okuya kwenzeka kwixesha elizayo, kwaye ndibuyela kwinto eya kwenza ibutho lesathelayithi, xa abangcwele abaguqukayo endithethe ngabo baphuma ebandleni labo: aba balungiseleli bobugwenxa baya kuvinjelwa, baphelelwe lithemba, baphume ngaphandle. ngokwabo. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba abayi kuba nako ukwenza kunye nokwenza izicwangciso zabo zobudemon ngokwabo. Kungenxa yoko le nto bengayazi indlela emasihambe ngayo, baya kuthi, Masirhole kuSathana; Ngaphezu koko, nguye ngokwakhe oyinkosi yezithembiso zethu, osiphumelelisayo ezindaweni zonke. Baya kwenza umlingo, beze needemon kunye nabo. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba iidemon ziya kuqwengana, kwaye ziya kuba nesiphithiphithi esingapheliyo malunga nabaguqukayo abatsha. Baya kuyiva inkuselo kaThixo phezu kwabo kangangokuba abayi kuyiva abayi kuba namandla okubahenda njengoko bebeya kwenjenjalo. Baza kuthintelwa nasekuzivezeni kwindibano yeesathelayithi zabo, ngelixa abaguqukayo abatsha baya kube belapho.

UThixo akafuni ukuba iidemon zize ziphose iintolo zazo ezinetyhefu ezintliziyweni apho kuya kuzalelwa khona ubabalo kuphela.

 

Imbonakalo yeedemon. Umsindo wabo. Bazenza izinyeliso ezikrakra kubaxhasi babo.

Ziya kwandula ke iidemon, zizele ngumsindo noburhalarhume, zibafikele abaphantsi kwazo, zinyibilike emiqolombeni yabo, njengombane; Iidemon ziya kubenza bazive ubunzima bomsindo wabo, kwaye ziya kuthi kubo: Ngaba kunjalo, ngamagwala nabavilayo, ukuba nixakeke kwimicimbi yelizwe loyihlo? Zothi ke zona izazi ezinkulu, Yini na ukuba ningezi? Ziya kuphendula iidemon kuzo: Ukuba besikwazile ukuza, ngesingazange siphulukane nabaninzi kangako kwabalawulwa bethu: yonke le nto iphantse yalahleka phakathi kwethu; akudluli usuku, kwaneyure, apho umntu angasindeziyo ngenxa yodumo nokucengwa kwaba bawexuki. Iidemon ziya kongeza: Masingachithi ixesha. Ndiyakwazi, ngenkalipho yam, ngamandla am nangobukroti bam, ukuba ndinikhuphe enzonzobileni, eniwele kuyo nonke; phakamisa isibindi sakho, PUsillanimous oyiyo; undenza ndibe neentloni

amajoni anjalo andilandela!... Ndibona kuThixo ukuba iidemon ziya kuwakhuphela kuwo imikhonto evuthayo yekratshi, ikratshi nokukhukhumala, ziwaphilise ngenkalipho yobudemon; ukuze iingqondo neentliziyo zabo ezivuthe ngolo hlobo zithabathe iimvakalelo, ubungendawo nolunya lweedemoni.

 

Intetho kaSathana. Ubathembisa umchasi-Kristu njengenkokeli yabo, aze aphuhlise iitalente namandla akhe.

Wothi ke uSathana kweli bandla, Masingoni singalibali; Ndiya kuzitshabalalisa zonke iintlanga eziya kuba nxamnye nathi, ukususela phezulu kuye ezantsi; Ndifuna ukunenza nibe ziinkosi zomhlaba wonke. Niya kunqulwa njengoothixo; woba sisityebi ngegolide nesilivere, ube nazo ngokomlomo wakho, ube njengentlabathi yolwandle ukuba zininzi; ke mna kuzama ukukunika. Ndiya kukunika inkokeli eya kuba namandla ngezenzo nasemazwini, neya kuthi iphathe zonke iinzululwazi ngokubalaseleyo; Ndiya kuba yinkosi yakhe ngokwam. Ndiya kumyala, ndimbambe kwasebuncinaneni bakhe; akayi kuba neminyaka elishumi ubudala, xa uya kuba namandla, efundileyo kunani nonke, athi ngobuqhetseba bakhe nangobuqili bakhe. Ixabiso elithe kratya olenzayo zihlanganiseni zonke. Ukususela kule minyaka inye iminyaka elishumi ndiya kumhamba emoyeni, ndiya ndiza kwenza njalo

 

 

(441-445)

 

 

bona zonke izikumkani nobukhosi bomhlaba; ndiya kumenza inkosi yabo bonke abantu, ndimnike konke oku esandleni sakhe. Uya kuba ngumfundi ogqibeleleyo kubugcisa bemfazwe; Ndiya kumenza igorha elinobukroti nomeyisi omkhulu, oya koyisa uloyiso kuyo yonke indawo. Ekugqibeleni, ndiya kumenza uthixo, oya kunqulwa njengoMesiya olindelweyo.

Akayi kwenza ngamandla akhe onke, angabonisi uloyiso lwakhe noloyiso lwakhe, ade abe neminyaka engamashumi amathathu; kodwa ngaphambi kwelo xesha uya kwabonakalalisa iitalente zakhe emfihlekweni. Ndiya kunazisa kuni, nina ningabakhonzi bam. Ukususela ebuntwaneni bakhe, niya kumazi njengokumkani wenu, nimnqule njengothixo wenu nomesiya wenu.

 

Umtyholi, njengexabiso lezithembiso zakhe, ufuna ukuba bonke bazinikele enkonzweni yakhe. Isivumelwano esinezothe kunye naye.

Uya kuthi umtyholi ebandleni, Makuthiweni ezweni lenu, nakwenu umthetho, ziboneni into eniyiyo; Bonani into endisele ndinenzele yona, kwaye ukuba zininzi kangakanani iiloyiso endizenzayo ukuba nizifumane yonke imihla, kwaye nangona kunjalo ningamakholwa kwaye aninambulelo! Ndifuna kwaye ndibanga, njengenkosi, ukuba undinike isandla sakho, njengobungqina bokuba ukususela ngoku nonke nizincama ngenxa yam, ngexesha kunye namaphakade, ngokunyaniseka okungagungqiyo ukuba nindikhonze, ndikhonze ilizwe lenu, kwaye nindiphumelele abalawulwa.

Baya kwenza isivumelwano, apho idemon iya kuzibophelela ukuba izigcine izithembiso ezenza kubo, nokuba idlule nangaphaya kwazo. Musani ukoyika, uya kuthi kubo, aniyi kuswela nto enkonzweni yam; woyinikwa, xa uthe wadinga impi, ndokunika yona kwaoko. Baza kuya kuyo yonke indawo ukuze bakwenze uloyiso kwaye ufumane uloyiso, ngaphandle kokuba uzigcina izithembiso zakho ngokunyaniseka okungenakuphikiswa, kwaye ungaze uzinike unetyala lokungabi nambulelo okufana noko uzinikele kum. Ndingakuxolela ngayo kuphela xa ndikubona uthembekile kwixesha  elizayo.

 

Izifungo eziphunyeziweyo ngokuchasene noJC

Yothi ke idemon ithi, Mabeze elowo afake isandla sakhe esivumelwaneni, afunge ukuba uya kuhlala ethembekile kum, kude kuse ekufeni. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba aba bangamahlwempu, bathuthwa luvuyo kwaye bevuyiswa zizithembiso zeedemon, bevuyiswa kwaye bevuyiswa yimibono kunye neengcamango eziya kuzenza kwiingcamango zabo, kwaye umfanekiso wabo ogudileyo uya kubabuyisela uloyiko, uloyiko kunye neenkathazo. ukuba baya kuba namava ngaphambili, baya kuhamba, ngokuthanda kwabo nangentliziyo enkulu, ukuba basayine isivumelwano, kwaye benze isifungo sokuthembeka kwidemon ubomi babo bonke. Baya kuthi nakulo mvumi, Ukuba besinomphefumlo oliwaka, besiya kubingelela kuwe. Ibaphendule idemon, ithi, Aninalo iwaka lemiphefumlo yenu, njengoko nithanda ngako; kodwa endaweni yoko ndifuna kwaye mna Ndiyaphinda ndinithethela ngelithi, mandithande mna, nimthiye kanye uKristu, enimbiza ngokuba nguNyana wOsenyangweni; ukuba ulahle zonke izithethe azimise eBandleni lakhe; nokuba abo babhaptiziweyo phakathi kwenu balukhanyele ngokupheleleyo ubhaptizo lwabo nazo zonke izivumelwano abazenze ngesifungo; ukuba bonke abangabhaptizwanga; ziqulathe isifungo sokuthembeka, abaya kundiboleka bona, abangayi  kuba njalo.

Ke mna ndithi, njengokuba nam ndimthiyile, ndimthiyile lowo kuthiwa nguThixo, osilwelayo, osibandezelayo; Kuyimfuneko, njengam, ukuba nayo ngentiyo kunye noloyiko, kunye nayo yonke into evela kuye; ukuze ningathembeli kuye, nazi ukuba mna ndinguKumkani wenu, noThixo wenu; ndibe ngathi niya kundibuyisela kum ngexesha elizayo, kususela kwangoku ukunqula uThixo wenu. yendumiso nothando alufunayo kuye. Ndifanelekile ngakumbi nangaphezulu ngokufanelekileyo kunaye.

'Yabona, abantu bam, onjani umahluko okhoyo phakathi kwezifundo zam nezakhe. Ubeka ngokwakhe umthetho onzima kwiimvakalelo nakwindalo; ubabeka ekubandezelekeni okuthe rhoqo, kwaye njengomvuzo wabongamela ngezifo zomzimba nezengqondo, kwaye ubenze banyamezele zonke iintlobo zembandezelo; nam, uyayibona indlela endikuphatha ngayo. Awunakutsho ukuba ndingutitshala olukhuni nongqongqo ngendalo. Ndiyanithuthuzela kwaye ndiyanixhasa  kubuthathaka benu. Andikushiyi ekusweleni, okanye ekuthotyweni kukuswela, njengoko eshiya owakhe. Ngokuchasene noko, ndininika yaye ndiya kuninika yonke into ngokugqithiseleyo  .

Ngaloo mzuzu, uMtyholi, ngeentetho zakhe nangemikhonto evuthayo uya kudubula ezintliziyweni zabo, uya kwenza kakuhle kakhulu, ngokokude bakhawule intiyo engenakuphikiswa ngakuThixo, kwaye ngomsindo nengqumbo yabo baya kuba belungele ukumbulala. ukutshabalalisa nokubhangisa uThixo nabantu bakhe, ukuba babenako. Ekugqibeleni, iintliziyo neengqondo zabo ziya kufana nezo zeedemon. Baya kuba nenzondelelo evuthayo, umsa wothando, nomnqweno omkhulu wokuthembeka enkonzweni yabo; ukuze abo basebandleni, abo bangekabikho phakathi kombutho wezazi ezinkulu, bangxame bangene kuwo kwaoko kunye nomkhosi.

ulwaneliseko olukhulu, nokwaneliseka okukhulu ziidemon.

Wakuba ubhaliwe umbhalo lowo, wasayinwa, kwaza kwenziwa izifungo, ibandla libe njengenkosi yezazi ezinkulu; yaye idemon iya kuthi kubo ngomoya wovuyo nolwaneliseko: Ngoku nizizihlobo zam zokwenene, yaye niyixolelwe intlungu enaye nandivisa yona ngaphambili. Ndinenza nibe ziinkosi kuzo zonke izidalwa kwaye

lonke igunya lam; Ndikunika amandla apheleleyo okubhalisa kwesi sivumelwano bonke abo baya kufuna ukwenza izithembiso ezifana nezabo uzenzile. Emva koko ndiya kuzibamba ndibophelelekile ukubanika iinceba ezifanayo kunye nobabalo olufanayo endikuthembise lona, ​​ngaphandle kokuba kwiindibano zabo bathatha isifungo esimiselweyo kwaye batyikitye.

 

Umthetho ochasene nobuKristu wongezwa kwisivumelwano kunye nezifungo ezimele zigcinwe. Yintoni equlethwe yiyo.

Kungoku, bahlobo bam, ekufuneka sonke sidlale ngekonsathi. Ndibonise umthetho wakho, ekufuneka wongezwe kwisivumelwano esisanda kusenza, kwaye kufuneka ubekwe kwintloko yalo mthetho, ukuze ube ngowokuqala ukuqwalaselwa kwaye usetyenziswe. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba lo mthetho uya kuziswa ziintloko zebandla. Iidemon ngokwazo ziya kubeka esi sivumelwano ekuqaleni komthetho wabo, kwaye ziya kongeza kulo mthetho nantoni na eziyithandayo, ngokomoya wazo okhohlakeleyo.

Nantsi into endiyibonayo kuThixo: Kulo mthetho uqalekisiweyo, uMesiya ekudala enqweneleka uya kubhengezwa, kwaye kuya kuthiwa nguye yedwa esifanele sikholwe kuye, kwaye simele simnqule. Uya kubhengezwa ngabaprofeti nangezithunywa zezulu iminyaka embalwa (ndiyabona kuThixo kuya kuba yiminyaka emibini okanye emithathu) ngaphambi kokuba azalwe. Andikwazi ukukudwelisa apha konke okuya kuthethwa kumnandi ngakumbi kwaye kufezekiswe ngakumbi ngomntu wakhe, ubuhle bakhe kunye nobutyebi bakhe. Uya kuba ngathi ungqongwe yimbonakaliso yobuthixo, eqaqambe ngakumbi kunemitha yelanga. Uya kubonakala ekhatshwa yinkundla yasezulwini yezithunywa zezulu, eziya kumlandela; yonke imikhosi yezithunywa zezulu iya kunikela imbeko yayo kuye njengakukumkani wayo, ize imnqule njengoThixo oyinyaniso onguSomandla, noMesiya owayenqwenelwa yaye elindelwe ukususela ekuqaleni kwehlabathi. Ke kuko konke oko, ndibona kuThixo ubugwenxa, namasikizi odwa; Kuya kuba ziidemon ezininzi kakhulu eziya kuthi, phantsi komfanekiselo wezithunywa zokukhanya, ziprofete ngokuza kwalo mntu unobugwenxa; njengokuba kuya kubakho imikhosi yeedemon eya kuza kumhlawula inkundla, iqubude kuye njengeedemon. uMesiya.

Eyona nto indivisa kabuhlungu kukuba ndibona kuThixo ukuba lo mthetho uqalekisiweyo uya kuqulatha izinyeliso ezininzi kunye nezityholo ngakuMsindisi wethu othandekayo. Ukuba bendingoyiki ukumcaphukisa uThixo, bendingenakuze ndicinge ukuba kubhalwe amasikizi anjalo; Amatshijolo aya kuzazisa ngolwimi olungendawo, olulungcikivo. Nantsi into abaya kuyithetha ngokunxulumene neLizwi Lenyama. Baya kubanga ukuba ungumesiya wobuxoki nomkhafuli, ophethwe ngumtyholi; ukuba ungumbulali ogwetyelwe ukufa ngenxa yolwaphulo-mthetho nomthetho wakhe wobuxoki; ukuba abantu abaninzi babengayifuni

ziqonde uMesiya; ukuba kungenxa yoku bathi bamgwebe baza bamgwebela ukufa baza bambangela ukuba afe phakathi kwamasela amabini ngezandla zababulali; ukuba sisikrelemnqa esibizwa ngokuba nguMesiya wokwenene olindelweyo; ukuba ukusuka apho abantu abaninzi, phantsi kwesihloko sobuKristu, baye bavuma ukuba bayawugcina lo mthetho unzima, obonakala ngathi umiselwe kuphela ukutshabalalisa umntu, kunokuba umenze aphile; ukuba inani elikhulu lala maKristu liye laziimfama ngokwaneleyo yaye lizizidenge ngokwaneleyo ukuba likholelwe kuye nako konke oko akumiseleyo kumthetho wakhe ongendawo; ukuba ukusuka kwesinye isizukulwana kuye kwisizukulwana baye bazixhasa kolu nqulo lukhohlakeleyo, luphuthileyo, nokuba kufunyenwe abathile abantliziyo zilukhuni ngokwezimvo zabo, bakhetha ukufa;

 

Uqhankqalazo oloyikekayo lwabamanduleli bomchasi-Kristu, ngokuchasene neCawa kunye namaKristu. Ukupapashwa komthetho wabo ocekisekayo.

La matshijolo aya kuwagqwesa amaKristu alungileyo ngezithuko nezithuko, enze izifungo neziqalekiso eziya kunyikimisa izulu nomhlaba. Akusekho ixesha lokuphikisa, baya kuthi, kufuneka siwamkele lo mthetho mtsha, usithembisa kwiminyaka embalwa umesiya wenyaniso enqweneleka kakhulu, onothando olungaka ngabantu, noya kubazalisa ngeenceba ezininzi. nobabalo: ukuba anifuni ukunikezela ngobabalo olulungileyo, niya kunyanzelwa ukuba nenjenjalo ngamandla, kuba ilixa lifikile xa uloyiso lomhlaba wonke luya kwenziwa ngamandla nangesidima senyaniso uMesiya. Masiyitshabalalise, baya kuthetha phakathi kwabo, konke oku kubizwa ngokuba yiBandla, kwaye makungabikho ntetho ehlabathini yalo mesiya wobuxoki.

Ndiyabona ke kuThixo, ukuba, emva kokuba beshumayele ebantwini ngembonakalo yobulali, baya kumisa imibhalo yomthetho wabo wobuxoki, ixhonywe ezitratweni, nasezibondeni zemizi, baleswe ekuhleni; nasemizini nasezilalini: baya kwandula ke bakhale baze babhangise zonke iimfihlelo zenkolo yethu engcwele, ngakumbi leyo yokwenziwa komntu weLizwi; baya kuyigculela imisitho yeBandla elingcwele  kwaye baya kuba yintlekisa; baya  kunyanga

 

 

(451-455)

ukusuka kwiintsomi iimfihlelo ezingcwele nakuzo zonke iisakramente; ke baya kupapasha zonke iintlobo zentuthumbo umntu aya kuzenza kunye nabo baya kuthintelwa ukulandela umthetho weJC, kwaye abaya kwala ukuthobela umyalelo wabo.

Kodwa ngaphambi kokuba zisebenzise ngokungqongqo, iidemon ziya kubonakala phantsi komfanekiselo wezithunywa zokukhanya, ukuze zivakalise umesiya wazo oyinyaniso othenjisiweyo; baya kubayala abantu ukuba bakholelwe kuye, balahle umprofeti wobuxoki obizwa ngokuba nguYesu. Bonke ubugcisa babo kunye namaqhinga abo aya kuhlala iminyaka eliqela, ngaphambi kokuba basebenzise ngqongqo ngemikhosi yabo yobudemon.

 

UDade ugqibezela iakhawunti yakhe apha, kuba kwimiqulu yokuqala wachaza ngentshutshiso yomchasi-Kristu. UThixo uya kulikhusela ngokungummangaliso iBandla laKhe kude kube ngulo mhla wokugqibela wehlabathi.

Andinakuba nako ukukubhala phantsi konke endikubonayo kuThixo, ngako oko kuqulethwe ngulo mthetho singelwe phantsi: ngenxa yoko ndiya kuphawula kuphela ezona zinto zibalulekileyo neziyimfuneko, ngokukodwa ekubeni komnye umqulu. , endayibhala kwiminyaka esibhozo okanye esithoba eyadlulayo, iphawulwa ngokucace ngakumbi indlela, ukususela ekufikeni komchasi-Kristu eBandleni, eli Bandla lingcwele liya kuhlala de kube yiMini yoMgwebo, phezu kwazo nje zonke iingqumbo zesihogo nazo zonke iisathelayithi zaso. Njengoko isihogo esivuthayo sisonyuka ngokuchasene neCawe, iNkosi yethu iya kuyinceda kwaye iyikhusele: kuya kubakho kuphela inani labafeli-nkolo abamiselwe yiNkosi, hayi omnye ongaphezulu okanye ngaphantsi. Ukuba isihogo sinabaprofeti ababuxoki. iNkosi iya kuba nabaprofeti bayo bokwenyaniso abaya kuvakalisa iinyaniso zobuthixo, nabathi, ngesibane sokholo sobuthixo, bazibethelele ezintliziyweni zabathembekileyo bokwenyaniso. Kuya kuba ngelo xesha apho uThixo engayi kuyiyeka imimangaliso, nokubanika ubomi nenkxaso kubantwana beBandla lakhe, abaya kuswela kakhulu.

 

 

§. VIII.

Ukuwa okoyikekayo nokothusayo komchasi-Kristu kunye namahlakani akhe.

 

Ingelosi enkulu eNgcwele uMichael ithunyelwe ukuba ibe yintloko yeCawe. INkosi yethu ngokwayo ibonakala kwiBandla layo ukuyomeleza emlo.

Xa umchasi-Kristu, esoyisa uloyiso lwakhe emfazweni aya kuvakalisa ngokuchasene neBandla, uya kuzixhobisa ukuze alityumze aze alibhangise, ngoko uya kukholwa, uThixo uya kuthumela isiphatha-zingelosi esikhulu uMikayeli ukuba abe yintloko yeBandla lakhe, kunye nemikhosi yeengelosi. ngubani na oya kumrhawula; kwaye ngemihla xa iBandla liya kube linabafeli-nkolo abaninzi, iNkosi yethu ngokwayo iya kubonakala eBandleni layo; uya kubomeleza abathembekileyo ngokholo oluphindiweyo, aze athi kubo: “Yibani nesibindi, bantwana bam; nilwe kakuhle: inani elikhulu labafeli-nkolo namhlanje lithweswe isithsaba ezulwini; kuya kuhlala kukho isixa esimangalisayo esiphawulwe kwimimiselo yam yanaphakade, endisayilindileyo; yaye xa onke amangqina, endizimisele wona ngokwam, efikile kum, ndonenza ningabonakali kubo bonke oozwilakhe; isandla sam esinamandla siya kukufihla kwindawo yokufihla, apho uya kuhlala kude kube sekupheleni kwehlabathi, ngelixa ndiya kumphosa phantsi kwaye ndiyityumle le ndoda yesono kunye nolu hlanga luqalekisiweyo lukaSathana ukuya ezantsi kwenzonzobila yehlabathi. . »

 

Umchasi-Kristu kunye namahlakani akhe banyuka ukusuka phezulu emafini ukuya esihogweni.

Ngenxa yoko, ndiyabona kuThixo ukuba iidemon azisayi kuba namandla emhlabeni; ziya kuphoswa esihogweni kunye nabo bonke abakhafuli bazo, namaqili abo amakhulu, nazo zonke iinkokeli zalo mthetho uqalekisiweyo. Ewe, zonke ziya kungquzuka phantse ukusuka kwindawo ephakamileyo yamafu, apho ziya kukholelwa ukuba zinyukela ezulwini njengoothixo kunye nenkosi yazo, eya kukholelwa ukuba inamandla ngaphezu kwabo bonke abanye oothixo.

UThixo undazise ngeyona njongo zibalaseleyo zikaSathana kunye nezi satellite. Baya kunyukela ezulwini ngovuyo olukhulu nangoloyiso olukhulu, ngenjongo yokuya kwenza imfazwe phezu koBuntu obunguNaphakade, ukuze baphakamise iitrone zabo ngaphezu kweyakhe, baze bambhangise ukuba bathanda njalo, bazabalazela uzuko olufana nolo lukaLusifa. Kungalo mzuzu apho uThixo aya kuthumela ingelosi enkulu eNgcwele uMikayeli, enxibe amandla kunye nobulungisa bukaThixo, oya kuza evela phezulu kwezulu phambi kwabo ngomoya osongelayo, oya kubetha uloyiko phakathi kwemimoya engapheliyo.

INkosi yethu iya kulenza ilizwi layo livakale ngokuphefumla kwengelosi eNgcwele uMikayeli, kwaye iya kuthi: Hamba, uqalekisiwe, yehla uye enzonzobileni yesihogo. Ngephanyazo umhlaba uya kuvuleka, kwaye uya kuzisa igophe eloyikekayo lomlilo namadangatye, apho eli qela lingenakubalwa liya kuwela i-pell-mell, kunye nomthetho walo oqalekisiweyo, oya kuwuthwala nawo, kwaye bonke baya kuya ezantsi. .ukuphuma enzonzobileni yesihogo.

Inceba kaThixo kwabaninzi abawela umsantsa, abamadangatye anyukela esibhakabhakeni.

Lo Thixo, ozele lubabalo nenceba, kwanokokusesikweni kwakhe, ufuna ukubenzela inceba aboni. Kuya kubakho abanye abangengabo ubugwenxa njengabo bendithetha ngabo, kwaye baya kuba benze umthetho oqalekisiweyo. Lo Msindisi ungcwele uya kubahlangula, aze abavumele bawe enzonzobileni, kwaye nangaphandle kokuzenzakalisa; engenakwenzeka ngaphandle kommangaliso.

Kamsinya nje emva kokuba amanye amashwa ewele enzonzobileni, uThixo uya kubangela ukuba ubulungisa bakhe bugqabhuke ngamadangatye, aya kunyukela phezulu njengeesathelayithi zikaSathana ziya kube zivukile. UThixo uya kuphawula ngale nto ukuba uya kufuna ukuwuhlambulula umoya wokungcola okungcolileyo ekuya kuba wosulelwe ngawo ngolwaphulo-mthetho lwala matshijolo, kwaye kwangaxeshanye ukunkwantya.

 

 

(456-460)

 

 

abo bawele enzonzobileni, babalahlele kumacebo obabalo nenceba aya kuthi lo Thixo wokulunga abe nawo phezu kwabo. Xa amadangatye ephaphazela kangangemizuzu embalwa, aya kugqunywa kwakhona ezantsi enzonzobileni, yaye umhlaba uya kuvaleka kwakhona. Kodwa lo mhlaba uya kuba ngumlilo owoyikekayo; iya kuhlala igutyungelwe bubumnyama obungqingqwa, ekuya kuthi kuyo kukhuselwe ama-specter ezoyikekayo, iinyoka, ii-asps, ngokufutshane yonke into eyoyikekayo kwindalo  .

 

Ukothuka kwamaKristu angakholwayo. Ukuguqulwa kwamanye amaqabane omchasi-Kristu owawela ecaleni kwenzonzobila. Ubugwenxa babanye.

AmaKristu angamahlwempu aya kuzivumela ukuba akhwankqiswe, mhlawumbi ngenxa yokwesaba okanye ngeenkohliso zedemoni, abaya kusayina lo mthetho oqalekisiweyo kwaye balahle i-JC, ukuba bahlanganyele enkonzweni yeedemon, baya kuba nexhala. Baya kubaleka benkwantya, abanye kweli cala, abanye kweliya. Kule ntlekele yoyikekayo, ubabalo lweNkosi luya kufuna abo bafuna ukulwamkela; iya kuhamba ifumane abo bawele enzonzobileni, naba inani labo liya kunyukela kwisahlulo sesithathu. Esinye isibini kwisithathu siya kuba siwele esihogweni. Ngaphezu kwesiqingatha sesithathu esiseleyo siya kuguqukela eNkosini;

abanye ke baya kulandula ubabalo. Kwiintsuku ezimbalwa kamva, baya kubuthana njengamahlwempu. Baya kudla, basele, bachwayite, yaye baya kucinga kuphela ngokuchitha intabalala yegolide nesilivere. Ekunxileni kwabo baya kuthi: “Yinyaniso ukuba siphulukene nenkokeli yethu; kodwa akunamsebenzi, asibhubhanga, kwaye sinexesha elimnandi. Yintoni enokwenzeka kuthi?

 

 

§. IX.

Ubume beCawa kunye nehlabathi emva kokuwa koMchasi-Kristu.

 

 

Ihlabathi liya kuhlala likho iminyaka emininzi emva kokuwa komchasi-Kristu.

Xa umchasi-Kristu neqela lakhe bewile esihogweni, umgwebo awusayi kufika kwangoko. Kuya kubakho abathile abaya kuyilinda imihla ngemihla, kwaye ngokungabi namonde okunjalo, baze badinwe kukukruquka koku kulinda. Iya kuba liBandla eliNgcwele eliya kuthi shwaka kolu lindelo; kodwa akukho bani uwaziyo, angawazi unyaka nemini, aya kuza ngayo uNyana woMntu, eza kugweba abaphilileyo nabafileyo. Ndibona kuThixo, ukuba kusele iminyaka emininzi, engekafiki unyana womntu; kodwa andiyiboni ukuba mingaphi iminyaka eyakubakho.

 

Isohlwayo sabavukeli ngobabalo.

Amatshijolo iNkosi eya kuwashiyela ukuguqulwa kwawo, endaweni yokuguqulwa, aya kuhlanganisana onke esixekweni esikhulu: aya kuphinda anyuse amabutho ukuba alitshutshise iBandla. Kodwa nantsi into eyathethwa yiNkosi kum: “Abo bavukela ibandla lam, ndiya kubatyumza ngobulungisa bam, yaye andiyi kubaconga njengoko nomlilo utshisa umququ. Ngaloo ndlela aba bangamashwa baya kutshabalala kubuntamo-lukhuni babo, kwaye iBandla eliNgcwele liya kuhlala emhlabeni ngoxolo olukhulu nangokuzola okunzulu  .

 

Ukuguqulwa okugqibeleleyo kwabo baya kuthembeka elubabalweni.

Ndibona kuThixo ukuba aboni abangamahlwempu abavule iintliziyo zabo elubabalweni baya kuba kukothuka okukhulu. Aba mahlwempu aboni

baya kukhumbula ezinye iintsalela zobuKristu kunye nokholo, ubabalo oluya kubangela ukuba bazalwe ngokutsha ezintliziyweni zabo; kodwa bengazi ukuba kuya kwenzeka ntoni ngomama wethu iBandla elingcwele, baya kumfuna kwaye abayi kuba nako ukumfumana. Iya kwandula ke iNkosi yethu ithumele izithunywa zayo, eziya kubafundisa ukuba iBandla elingcwele aliyi kutshabalala nangayiphi na indlela, nokuba alisayi kuze libekho; ukuba uThixo ufuna bamanyane naye baze baguqukele ngokupheleleyo eNkosini. Kuyakuthi ngelo xesha iBandla elingcwele libone abaguqukileyo begxalathelana kuye besuka macala onke ukuba babuyele esifubeni sakhe. Siya kuva kuwo onke macala kuphela iinyembezi kunye nencwino kwezona nguquko ikrakra kakhulu, kokubini abaguqukayo abatsha kunye nabathembekileyo beBandla, abaya kuzinikela kuThixo ukuba benze inguquko ngenxa yaboni abangamahlwempu, abaya kuba buhlungu kakhulu, ukuba baninzi abaya kufa ziintlungu. Bonke baya kuba ngabangcwele, kwaye ibandla labathembekileyo liya kuhlokoma ngemibulelo, iindumiso neentsikelelo abazinikela eNkosini.

 

§. X.

Imeko yolawulo lomchasi-Kristu elityelwe nguDade, kwaye ayibalisa apha.

 

 

IRoma yahlasela. UPope owafela ukholo kunye nesihlalo sakhe balungiselela umchasi-Kristu.

Nantsi imeko endiye ndasilela ukuyixela ngexesha kunye nendawo. Ndibona kuThixo ukuba xa amahlakani omchasi-Kristu eqalisa ukwenza imfazwe, aya kuzibeka kufutshane neRoma, apho aya koyisa ngokoyisa kwawo zonke izikumkani nazo zonke izikumkani eziya kuba zingqonge esi sixeko. Inye into apha endingaqinisekanga ngayo. Into endiyaziyo yeyokuba iRoma iya kutshabalala ngokupheleleyo, ukuba uBawo oyiNgcwele uPopu abulawelwe ukholo, kwaye isihlalo sakhe siya kulungiselelwa umchasi-Kristu. Kodwa andazi ukuba oku kuyakwenzeka na kancinane phambi komchasi-Kristu ngamahlakani akhe, okanye ngomchasi-Kristu ngokwakhe, xa athe wangena endleleni yoloyiso lwakhe.

Andisayi kuphinda ndithethe ngezi ntlobo zemiba, ngakumbi kuba ndiye ndanda ngakumbi komnye umqulu, endandiwubhale apho.

 

(461-465)

 

 

iminyaka elithoba ukuya kwelishumi ubudala. Kule ncwadana ndinike ingxelo ngezinto ezininzi, ezingekhoyo kwenye, kuba uThixo ebengandinikanga lwazi ngazo ngelo xesha, ngakumbi ngazo zonke izinto eziphathelele umthetho ombi.

 

§. XI.

Oko uDade akwaziyo kuThixo ngokunxulumene nexesha langoku.

 

Umbono owazisa uDade ngeenceba ezinkulu uThixo azinika iBandla lakhe ngemithandazo kunye nokufaneleka kweJC ebethelelwe emnqamlezweni.

Ndizakuthi apha, kupheliswe ezi zinto zichaphazela iintshaba zeBandla, endikwaziyo ngoThixo ngeli xesha. Ngamhla uthile uMoya kaYehova wandikhokelela entabeni ephakamileyo. Ndabona phantsi kwamafu into enkulu yoluliwe emoyeni, eyaqala kwicala elingasempuma leParis, eyayiza kuphelela emazantsi. Andizange ndibubone bonke ubude okanye ukuphela kwayo kwicala elingasempuma leParis. Ububanzi balo bebungaphantse ukuba ziné; Wawugqunywe ziinkwenkwezi zegolide engcwengiweyo, nesilivere ecikizekileyo, eqaqambe ngaphezu kweenkwenkwezi. Imvelaphi yayicace gca ngoko ndandikwazi nokubona

ngaphezulu nangaphantsi. Konke oku kwakufakwe ibhanti elibanzi ngesandla kumacala omabini, nalo laligqunywe kwaye lizaliswe ziinkwenkwezi, kunye namanani amaninzi, kunye nezinye izinto ezininzi endizincomayo, kodwa ndingenakwenza nto. Konke oku kwasasaza ukukhanya kobumhlophe obukhulu, obusulungekileyo obukhulu kunye nokucace gca, kangangokuba kwakufana nekristale esulungekileyo ...

Lo mcimbi kum wabonakala ukhaphukhaphu kwaye uyinto yasezulwini. Yayingaphazanyiswa yimimoya, kwaye yahlala izinzile. Ndajikela ngaseParis, yaye ndixakeke gqitha ndicamngca ngezinto ezininzi ezahlukeneyo nezintle gqitha kangangokuba andizange ndiphawule ukuba Oyena UBathathu Emnye Ungcwele wayesecaleni kwam. Ukujikela ngasezantsi, ukuze ndibone apho yonke into yaphela khona, ndabona umzobo omkhulu kunye nomhle uxhonywe emoyeni, ekuphakameni kwale nto intle kwaye iqaqambileyo, eyaphela phantsi komzobo.

Lo mzobo wawumela Oyena Ungcwele Ungcwele noBathathu Emnye, uBawo ongunaPhakade ebambe unyana wakhe amthandayo ebotshelelwe emnqamlezweni, noMoya oyiNgcwele esifubeni sakhe. UThixo undazise ukuba unyana wakhe oyintanda wayethandaza kuye ngoku kwaye ngamaxesha onke ethandazela iBandla lakhe elingcwele, egameni lomnqamlezo wakhe, ukufa kwakhe okungcwele kunye nenzondelelo yakhe, nokuba into endiyibonileyo yayiyimbonakaliso yenceba kunye neentsikelelo awazinikela kuye. Bandla, ngenxa yemithandazo kunye neemfanelo zokufa kunye nothando lonyana wakhe oyintanda.

Ndazijula ​​ngamadolo. Ndiqubuda emazantsi eYona Ngcwele kaBathathu Emnye, ndamnqula; ndaza ndazimanya neNkosi yethu, ndaqalisa ukuthandazela iBandla. Ndazibona ndisothukile kwaye ndonganyelwe kubunzulu bokungabi nto kwam, ebusweni bukaThixo; ndithe ndakusuka emthandazweni, yabe ingasekho yonke into. Oku kwenzeka kum kwiminyaka emithathu enesiqingatha eyadlulayo (1).

(1) Ngowe-1794, okanye ekuqaleni kowe-1795 mva nje.

 

UDade akanalwazi lwenceba ethile echazwe ngumbono. Uthetha nje into ayicingayo.

UThixo akazange andixelele ukuba wayeza kuzithululela nini iinceba zakhe kwiCawa yakhe, yaye uya kubangela ukuba kubekho uxolo. Nantsi ingcinga eza kum apha, kwaye iyindalo, oko kukuthi, ayisiyompembelelo yempefumlelo kaThixo, okanye nayiphi na indlela engaqhelekanga. Kum kubonakala ngathi oku kungabhengeza inkululeko yonqulo, nolonwabo umntu anethemba lalo, lokubona abalungiseleli besebenzisa ubulungiseleli babo obungcwele eziCaweni. Makabongwe uThixo! Ndiyambulela uThixo.

Qaphela . — Ndabona kuThixo ukuba kwakuza kwenziwa iphulo lokukhumbula ababingeleli basekuthinjweni, ngenjongo yokubabingelela nokubabulala, ngokubabhenca ngogonyamelo kwiintlaselo zemfazwe; kodwa ndiyathemba ukuba uThixo akayi kuvumela.

Kwakhona ndabona kuThixo, kwiminyaka eliqela eyadlulayo, iVendée, kwaye ndazifumana ndilapho.

Ndayibona njengentlango eyoyikekayo, engahlali mntu, ebonisa kuphela intsalela emanyumnyezi yembubhiso eyenzeke apho.

Ndineembono ezimbini malunga nexesha elinye; yaye njengoko ndibona ukuba kukho esisele sifeziwe, ndiyoyika kakhulu ukuba oku ngokuphathelele ababingeleli kuya kwenzeka ngelishwa babulawe.

IILETA EZISUKA

UDADE WOKUZALWA,

 

KuM. Genet, nakuM. le Roy, iDini yoMhambi ngezonqulo, abavumisi bakhe. (1)

 

Hlala Yesu! Hlala Yesu! Hlala Yesu!

 

ILETA YOKUQALA.

 

KuM. Genet.

U-Sister wamcenga ukuba azimele kakuhle, aze amcele ukuba amthumele oko amnike kona. Uvakalisa kuye ukuba i-counter-revolution, ukuba iyenzeka, ayinakwenzeka ngokukhawuleza njengoko umntu ecinga, kwaye uThixo uyacaphuka ngokumelene neFransi.

 

Utata wam,

Ndifunde ngovuyo olukhulu iindaba zempilo yakho. Ndiyakucenga

(1) UM. le Roy, njengoko sisazi, wayengumvumi woMdado wokuZalwa ukususela ekuphumeni kwakhe nasebudeni bokungabikho kukaM. Genet.

Ezi leta, esizifumene zingenamhla, ngokuthelekisa oko zikuquletheyo nolandelelwano lweziganeko kunye noko uM. Genet akutshoyo kwiindawo ezininzi kumsebenzi wakhe, kubonakala ngathi zibhaliwe, eyokuqala ngo. 1793 (Bona umqulu wokuqala, iphepha 99 nelesibini); ezinye ezimbini, ekucacileyo ukuba  zezomhla ofanayo, ekuqaleni kowe-1798. (Jonga umqulu wesibini, iphepha 492 nelesibini) wafikelela kuMnu. Genet. (Jonga umqulu wesithathu, iphepha. 376 net.  )

ukuthatha yonke imini indlela yokukufihla kakuhle, kuba ndiyoyika ukuba amaxesha aya kuba mandundu ngakumbi kunokuba anjalo. Okwesibini, sonke simele sizincame sizinikele kuLungiselelo olungcwele, nakwinto yonke athanda ukuyenza uThixo ngathi.

Bawo wam, undixelele ukuba usengxakini yokwazi ukuba ungayithumela na into endiyibeke ezandleni zakho. Nantsi into endiya kuyithetha kuwe: Thumela, ukuba ufumana indlela ekhuselekileyo, kunye nabantu abanokuzithemba abanokuthi, ngobuchule babo kunye nokuphaphama kwabo, benze izinto ngokukhuselekileyo. Ndiyazi ukuba akukho mntu ukhutshiweyo kwiingozi neengozi ezinokubakho; kodwa sibeke ithemba lethu eNkosini, kwaye sikholelwa ukuba nantoni na ayigcinayo iya kugcinwa kakuhle. Ngoko ke, Bawo, ukuba kuvela ithuba elinjalo, musa ukulibazisa. Ndicinga ukuba xa kukho isiphithiphithi, iingozi ziya kuba nkulu ngakumbi elwandle kunasemhlabeni.

Bawo, ndinelizwi endilithetha kuwe malunga nokubona kwam kuThixo. Andikwazi kuzichaza kakuhle, kuba uThixo undenza ndibone ngokufihlakeleyo. Ukuba kukho i-counter-revolution (andazi ukuba ikufuphi okanye ikude), ndiyakholwa ukuba ayizukwenziwa ngokukhawuleza njengoko umntu enokucinga. Kuya kubakho iingxoxo ezininzi phakathi kwamaqela aphikisanayo; kwaye, xa sikholelwa ukuba izidubedube ziphelile, kuya kubakho iziphithiphithi ezoyikekayo ngapha nangapha: kuya kubakho phakathi kweenkosana ezingamaKristu.

Bawo, nantsi enye inkcazo: UThixo, ebonakalisa ukucaphuka ngokumelene neFransi, wathi kum ngomsindo wakhe: "Ndiya kumahlula." Iya kwabelwa njengesambatho esidala esikrazukileyo, silahlwe kude. Andikuniki oko ngokuqinisekileyo. Inokwenzeka ngcono okanye embi, okanye akukho nto kwaphela, kuba ndibona ukuba kuThixo ngokubhideka kuphela (1)....

(1) Kuyabonakala, ngomxholo wonke kunye nokungaqiniseki kweDade, ukuba la mazwi: Ndiya kuhlukanisa iFransi , njl. funeka ndohlwaye. Ukuguquka kunye nezohlwayo zaboni abaliqela, imithandazo yemiphefumlo engcwele, kwaye nangakumbi imimangaliso yenceba uThixo ayenzileyo ngokuthanda iFransi ukususela kwesi sisongelo savakaliswa ngaphezu kweminyaka engamashumi amabini anesithandathu eyadlulayo, kufuneka, kubonakala ngathi, kuyasiqinisekisa.

 

 

 

ILETA YESIBINI.

KuM. le Roy, umphathi wePilgrim, ukuze adlulele kuM. Genêt eNgilani.

 

UDade uthetha naye ngohambo azimisele ukulwenza eSaint-Malo; imbonisa umnqweno asenawo wokuya kujoyina uM. Genet eNgilani; imxelela yonke into eyenzekileyo ngalo mbandela phakathi kwakhe noMphathi wakhe kwaye imphawule ngokukodwa bonke ubungqina akholelwa ukuba unabo ngentando kaThixo kolu hambo, phakathi kwabanye umbono, apho iNkosi yethu yenza kwazeke ukuba olu hambo wathintelwa ngumsa wendalo kakhulu izidalwa ezazinawo kuye, noobekuya kuba yingozi kakhulu kuye, ukuba wayengamgcinanga ngobabalo olukhethekileyo; ekugqibeleni, uyamcenga ukuba angamazisi uMphathi wakhe oko kuqulethwe kule leta inde.

 

Bawo wam  ,

Ndinengcebiso ukuba ndikubuze malunga nomama wethu. Ndizimisele ukuya eSaint-Malo kwintwasahlobo ezayo, noonongendi ababini endihlala nabo; kodwa ndiqinisekile ukuba uMphathi wam, xa ndimcela imvume, uya kuyichasa ngokuphandle, kwaye ndinoloyiko lokuba endaweni yokundinika, uya kwalela ngokupheleleyo. Noko ke, nantsi into endiyibonayo kuThixo: ukuthanda kwakhe kukuba ndiye kuhlala ndedwa naba nongendi bobabini, kulo mhlolokazi ungcwele, othembisa ukuba akayi kusithintela nganto, asinike zonke iindlela zokuwugcina umthetho wethu. ngokukhawuleza ngokungxamisekile. Siya kukhutshelwa emaphandleni, kwaye siya kuba nesitiya esikhulu esibiyelwe ngodonga kwindawo yethu ebiyelweyo. Uyayazi Bawo ukuba asikho apha njengokuba sisemaphandleni: sikhona Apha njengasentlalweni, ngakumbi kwisidlo sangokuhlwa, apho sisitya nabantu boluntu. Ngokuphathelele umthetho wethu, asinako ukuwugcina. Xa kufuneka sibhitye, senziwe ukuba sityebe. Ngaphezu koko, phezu kwako nje ukuba nabani na, sichanabeke ekundwendwelweni ngabantu imini yonke, kwanangorhatya; yintoni eyenza ukuba  silahlekelwe

 

(471-475)

Bawo wam, lo ngumnqamlezo wam kanye nomnqamlezo wam wokwenyani. Yonke iminqamlezo neentlungu ezindibangele zona iidemon, nokuba zinokuzenza kum ngonaphakade, nokuba uThixo angavumela ukuba zikhululwe zonke kunye ngokuchasene nam ngazo zonke iintuthumbo zesihogo; ewe, Bawo, ndingatsho ukuba lo awusayi kuba ngumnqamlezo wam omkhulu.

Kodwa, umnqamlezo wokwenyani obamba intliziyo yam, nondisindayo, luloyiko lokwahlukaniswa noThixo wam, kukoyika ukuphulukana noThixo wam.  Le ngcinga iyodwa nje inokuba nako, kubonakala ngathi, ukuthabatha ubomi bam, ukuba uMsindisi wam ongcwele akazange eze kundinceda, ephakamisa inkalipho yam ngokholo oluphilileyo, esomeleza intliziyo yam ngethemba elimnandi, kwaye emthuthuzela ngothando lwesisa sakhe. Ngoko, ndixhaswa lubabalo, phezu kwazo zonke iintlekele zam, ndiziphosela entloko kwiingalo zenceba enyulu kunye nokulunga okunyulu kukaThixo, ngethemba lokuba, nangona ngenxa yezono zam ndifanelwe sisihogo kuphela, akayi kunditshabalalisa ngokungenakunceda, kwaye ukuba angandigwebi ngonaphakade  .

Bawo akukho mfuneko yokuba ndikuxelele into eninzi, ndicinga ukuba uyayibona imeko ebuhlungu yesazela sam: ndicela ungandiva.

ziveze ukuba uze kundinceda kwaye undincede ngenceba yakho. Ukuba bekukuthanda kukaThixo, bendiya kulungela ukufa ndibeke ubomi bam esichengeni izihlandlo eziliwaka kunokuba ndibeke ubomi bakhe nawuphi na umlungiseleli weNkosi esichengeni.

Ungaze ucinge ngokubuyela eFransi ude uqiniseke ukuba  uxolo lumiselwe ngokuqinileyo  .

Wakuba ukufundile oku kungasentla (1), uya kubona iimpawu zentando kaThixo phezu kwam, kunye nomnqweno endinawo wokuyifeza, nceda uBonelelo oluNgcwele lunike iindlela.
