VIII. Amazwi Ngokwazi Umsebenzi KaNkulunkulu

284. UNkulunkulu wadala abantu futhi wababeka emhlabeni, laba aye wabahola kwaze kwaba manje. Wabe esesindisa abantu waba njengomnikelo wesono kubantu. Ekugcineni, kusafanele anqobe isintu, asindise sonke isintu futhi asibuyisele esimweni saso sasekuqaleni. Lona umsebenzi uNkulunkulu abelokhu ewenza kusukela ekuqaleni kuze kube sekugcineni—wokumbuyisela esimweni sakhe ayeyiso ekuqaleni. Uyomisa umbuso Wakhe futhi abuyise izinto ezifana nesimo sasekuqaleni somuntu, okusho ukuthi uyovuselela igunya emhlabeni nakuyo yonke indalo. Umuntu walahlekelwa inhliziyo eyesaba uNkulunkulu ngemva kokonakaliswa uSathane, futhi walahlekelwa umsebenzi izidalwa zikaNkulunkulu okufanele zibe nawo, waba isitha esingamlaleli uNkulunkulu. Umuntu waphila ngaphansi kokubusa kukaSathane futhi walandela imiyalo kaSathane; ngakho uNkulunkulu wayengenayo indlela yokusebenza phakathi kwezidalwa Zakhe, futhi akakwazanga ukwenza ukuba izidalwa Zakhe zimesabe. Umuntu wadalwa uNkulunkulu, wakhonza uNkulunkulu, kodwa umuntu waqala ukumjikela uNkulunkulu wakhonza uSathane. USathane waba isithixo senhliziyo yomuntu. Ngakho uNkulunkulu walahlekelwa indawo Yakhe enhliziyweni yomuntu, okuwukuthi walahlekelwa incazelo yendalo kaNkulunkulu yabantu, manje ukuze abuyise ayekuhlosile ngendalo Yakhe kumele umuntu ambuyisele esimweni ayeyiso ekuqaleni bese exosha umuntu onesimo esikhohlakele. Ukuze abuyise umuntu kuSathane, kumele asindise umuntu esonweni. Kungale ndlela kuphela angabuyisa ngayo kancane kancane isimo sasekuqaleni somuntu futhi abuyise umsebenzi wasekuqaleni womuntu, futhi ekugcineni uNkulunkulu abuyise umbuso Wakhe. Ukubhujiswa kwabantwana bokungalaleli nakho kuzokwenziwa ukuze umuntu amkhonze kangcono uNkulunkulu futhi aphile kangcono emhlabeni. Njengoba uNkulunkulu adala umuntu, kufanele enze umuntu amkhonze; njengoba uNkulunkulu efisa ukubuyisa umsebenzi wasekuqaleni womuntu, lokho uzokwenza ngokuphelele, ngaphandle kwenkohlakalo. Ukubuyisa igunya Lakhe kusho ukwenza ukuthi umuntu amkhonze futhi amlalele; kusho ukuthi kufanele enze umuntu aphile ngenxa Yakhe futhi ashabalalise izitha Zakhe ngenxa yegunya Lakhe; kusho ukuthi uzokwenza ukuthi yonke ingxenye yakhe yokugcina iqhubeke phakathi kwabantu futhi ngaphandle kokuphikiswa umuntu. Umbuso afisa ukuwumisa embusweni Wakhe. Isintu asifisayo yilesi esimkhonzayo, esimlalela ngokuphelele futhi esinenkazimulo Yakhe. Uma engasisindisi isintu esonakalisiwe, okushiwo indalo Yakhe kuyophenduka ize; ngeke esaba nalo igunya kubantu, futhi umbuso Wakhe ngeke ukwazi ukuba khona emhlabeni. Uma engazibhubhisi lezo zitha ezingamlaleli, ngeke akwazi ukuthola inkazimulo Yakhe egcwele, futhi ngeke akwazi ukumisa umbuso phezu komhlaba. Lezi izimpawu zokuqedwa komsebenzi Wakhe nezimpawu zokufezwa kwezinto Zakhe ezinkulu: ukubhubhisa ngokuphelele labo phakathi kwesintu abangamlaleli, nokuletha ekuphumuleni labo abenziwe baphelela. Lapho isintu sesibuyiselwe esimweni saso sakuqala, lapho abantu bengaqeda imisebenzi yabo, bagcine indawo yabo futhi balalele wonke amalungiselelo kaNkulunkulu, uNkulunkulu uyobe eseqoqe iqembu labantu abamkhonzayo emhlabeni, futhi uyomisa nombuso emhlabeni, umbuso ozokhonza Yena. Uyoba nokunqoba kwaphakade emhlabeni, futhi labo abamelene naye bayoshabalala kuze kube phakade. Lokhu kuyobuyisa injongo Yakhe yasekuqaleni ngokudala zonke izinto; futhi kuyobuyisa negunya Lakhe phezu komhlaba, igunya Lakhe phakathi kwazo zonke izinto negunya lakhe phakathi kwezitha Zakhe. Lolu uphawu lokunqoba Kwakhe okuphelele. Kusuka lapho isintu siyongena ekuphumuleni nasekuphileni okulandela umgudu ofanele. UNkulunkulu uyophinde angene ekuphumuleni kwaphakade kanye nabantu, angene ekuphileni okuphakade okungokukaNkulunkulu nomuntu. Ukungcola nokungalaleli kwabantu emhlabeni kuzonyamalala, njengoba kuzoba njalo nangokukhala emhlabeni. Bonke abasemhlabeni abamelana noNkulunkulu ngeke babe khona. UNkulunkulu nabantu abasindisile kuphela okufanele basale; indalo Yakhe kuphela okufanele isale.

285. Lonke uhlelo Lwami lokuphatha, uhlelo oluhlanganisa iminyaka eyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha, lunezigaba ezintathu, noma izinkathi ezintathu: Inkathi yoMthetho ekuqaleni; Inkathi yoMusa (ephinde yaziwe ngokuthi Inkathi yokuHlengwa); neNkathi Yombuso ezinsukwini zokugcina. Umsebenzi Wami kulezi zinkathi ezintathu wehluka kokuqukethe ngokohlobo lwenkathi ngayinye, kodwa esigabeni ngasinye uhambisana nezidingo zomuntu—noma ukuqonda ngqo, wenziwa ngokwamaqhinga asetshenziswa uSathane empini engiyilwa naye. Inhloso yomsebenzi Wami ukunqoba uSathane, ukubonakalisa ukuhlakanipha Kwami nokuba namandla onke, ukuveza obala wonke amaqhinga kaSathane, ngalokho bese ngisindisa sonke isintu, esiphila ngaphansi kokubusa kwakhe. Kuwukukhombisa ukuhlakanipha nokuba namandla onke Kwami ngibe ngembula ububi bukaSathane obungabekezeleki. Ngaphezu kwalokho, kuwukufundisa izidalwa Zami ukuthi zikwazi ukwahlukanisa phakathi kokuhle nokubi, ukubona ukuthi nginguMbusi wazo zonke izinto, ukubona kahle ukuthi uSathane uyisitha sesintu, ophansi kunakho konke, omubi, nokwehlukanisa ngokunesiqiniseko phakathi kokuhle nokubi, iqiniso namanga, ubungcwele nokungcola, ubukhulu nobuphansi. Ngale ndlela, isintu esingenalwazi sizokwazi ukungifakazela ukuthi akuyimina owonakalisa isintu, futhi Yimi kuphela—iNkosi yendalo—ongasindisa isintu, engingabeka phezu komuntu izinto zokubathokozisa; futhi bazi ukuthi nginguMbusi wazo zonke izinto nokuthi uSathane ungomunye nje wezidalwa engazidala, wabuye wangiphendukela. Uhlelo Lwami lokuphatha lweminyaka eyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha luhlukene izigaba ezintathu ukuze kutholakale umphumela olandelayo: ukuvumela izidalwa Zami zibe ofakazi Bami, zazi intando Yami, zibone ukuthi ngiyiqiniso.

286. Iminyaka eyizi-6,000 yomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu wokuphatha ihlukaniswe ezigabeni ezintathu: iNkathi yoMthetho, iNkathi yoMusa kanye neNkathi yoMbuso. Le zigaba ezintathu zomsebenzi zonke ezokusindiswa kwesintu, okungukuthi, ezokusindiswa kwesintu esonakaliswe kakhulu nguSathane. Ngesikhathi esifanayo, kepha, ezokuthi uNkulunkulu alwe noSathane. Ngakho, njengoba umsebenzi wensindiso uhlukaniswe izigaba ezintathu, ngokunjalo impi noSathane ihlukaniswe izigaba ezintathu, futhi le zingxenye zombili zomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu zenzeka ngesikhathi esisodwa. Impi noSathane, empeleni, eyokusindiswa kwesintu, futhi ngenxa yokuthi umsebenzi wokusindiswa kwesintu akuyona into engaqedwa ngempumelelo esigabeni esisodwa, impi noSathane nayo ihlukaniswe ngezigaba nezinkathi, futhi nempi iliwa noSathane ngokuhambisana nezidingo zomuntu kanye nezinga lokonakaliswa kwakhe nguSathane. Mhlawumbe, ekucabangeni ngamehlo engqondo komuntu, ukholwa ukuthi kule mpi uNkulunkulu uzohloma izikhali abhekane noSathane, ngendlela efanayo namabutho amabili angalwa ngayo. Lokhu yinto kuphela engacatshangwa umqondo womuntu, futhi ingumbono ongaqondakali futhi ongacatshangisiwe kakhulu kabi, kepha yilokho umuntu akukholwayo. Futhi ngoba ngithi lapha indlela yensindiso yomuntu idlula empini noSathane, umuntu ucabanga ukuthi impi yenzeka kanje. Emsebenzini wensindiso yomuntu, izigaba ezintathu zenziwe, okungukuthi impi noSathane ihlukaniswe izigaba ezintathu ngaphambi kokuhlulwa okuphelele kukaSathane. Kepha iqiniso elingaphakathi lomsebenzi wonkana wempi noSathane lithi imiphumela yawo itholakala ngezinyathelo zomsebenzi eziningi: ukuthela umusa phezu komuntu, kanye nokuba umhlabelo wesono womuntu, ukuthethelela izono zomuntu, ukunqoba umuntu, nokuphelelisa umuntu. Empeleni, impi noSathane akukhona ukuhloma izikhali ubhekane noSathane, kodwa insindiso yomuntu, ukusebenza impilo yomuntu, kanye nokushintsha isimo somuntu ukuze afakazele uNkulunkulu. USathane unqotshwa kanje. USathane unqotshwa ngokushintsha isimo esikhohlakele somuntu. Uma uSathane esehluliwe, okungukuthi, uma umuntu esesindisiwe ngokuphelele, uSathane ojabhile uyoboshwa ngokuphelele, futhi ngaleyo ndlela, umuntu uyobe esesindisiwe ngokuphelele. Ngakho, ingqikithi yensindiso yomuntu impi noSathane, kanti impi noSathane ibonakaliswa esikakhulukazi ensindisweni yomuntu. Isigaba sezinsuku zokugcina, lapho umuntu ezonqotshwa khona, isigaba sokugcina sempi noSathane, kanti futhi umsebenzi wokusindiswa okuphelele komuntu emandleni kaSathane. Incazelo yangaphakathi yokunqotshwa komuntu ukubuya kokusamuntu kukaSathane, umuntu owonakaliswe nguSathane, kuMdali, emuva kokunqotshwa kwakhe, ngalokho uyoshiya uSathane futhi abuyele ngokuphelele kuNkulunkulu. Ngale ndlela umuntu uyobe esesindisiwe ngokuphelele. Ngakho, umsebenzi wokunqoba umsebenzi wokugcina empini ebhekene noSathane, kanye nesigaba sokugcina ekuphatheni kukaNkulunkulu ukuze kuhlulwe uSathane. Ngaphandle kwalo msebenzi, ukusindiswa komuntu okuphelele bekungeke kwenzeke neze ekugcineni, ukuhlulwa ngokuphelele kukaSathane nakho bekungeke kwenzeke neze, futhi isintu besingeke neze sikwazi ukungena esiphethweni esimangalisayo, noma ukukhululeka ethonyeni likaSathane. Ngenxa yalokho, umsebenzi wokusindiswa komuntu ngeke uphethwe ngaphambi kukuthi impi noSathane iphethwe, ngoba umnyombo womsebenzi wokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu ungenxa yokusindiswa kwesintu. Isintu sasekuqaleni sasisezandleni zikaNkulunkulu, kodwa ngenxa yokulingwa nguSathane nokonakaliswa, umuntu waboshwa nguSathane futhi wawela ezandleni zomubi. Ngakho, uSathane waba yinto okufanele yehlulwe emsebenzini wokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu. Ngoba uSathane wamngena umuntu, nangenxa yokuthi umuntu uwumsebenzi wokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu, uma umuntu ezosindiswa, kufanele ahlwithwe ezandleni zikaSathane, okusho ukuthi umuntu kufanele abuyiswe emva kokuthunjwa nguSathane. Ngalokhu, uSathane kufanele anqotshwe ngezinguquko esimweni somuntu esidala, izinguquko ezibuyisela umqondo wakhe wokuqala, bese ngale ndlela, umuntu, obethunjiwe, ehlwithwa ezandleni zikaSathane. Uma umuntu ekhululiwe ethonyeni nokuboshwa nguSathane, uSathane uyojabhiswa, umuntu ekugcineni uyobuyiselwa emuva, futhi uSathane uyohlulwa. Futhi ngenxa yokuthi umuntu usekhululiwe ethonyeni elimnyama likaSathane, umuntu uyoba impango yayo yonke lempi, futhi uSathane uyoba umenziwa oyojeziswa uma lempi seyiphelile, emuva kwalokho umsebenzi usuwonkana wokusindiswa komuntu uyobe usuqediwe.

287. UNkulunkulu uyiSiqalo neSiphetho; uyena uqobo oqala umsebenzi wakhe ngakho kumele kube nguye Nuqobo ophetha inkathi eyedlule. Lokhu kuwubufakazi bokuthi uyamnqoba uSathane futhi uyalinqoba izwe. Njalo lapho Yena Nuqobo esebenza kubantu, kuba yisiqalo sempi entsha. Ngaphandle kokuqalwa komsebenzi omusha, ngokwemvelo bekungeke kuphele ngokudala. Futhi ukungaphethwa kokudala kuwubufakazi bokuthi impi elwiwa noSathane ayikapheli. Kulapho kuphela uNkulunkulu eza ebantwini ezokwenza umsebenzi omusha okwenza umuntu ukuba agqashuke ngokuphelele ekulawulweni nguSathane futhi athole impilo entsha nesiqalo esisha. Ngale kwalokho, umuntu uyohlale ephila enkathini endala futhi ehlezi ngaphansi kwethonya likaSathane. Kuyo yonke inkathi eholwa nguNkulunkulu, ingxenye ethile yomuntu iyakhululwa futhi lokho kwenza umuntu athuthuke kanye nomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu oholela enkathini entsha. Ukunqoba kukaNkulunkulu kungukunqoba kwabo bonke abamlandelayo. Uma isintu sendalo sinikwa umsebenzi wokuphetha inkathi, lokho kwakuyokwenzeka ngokwendlela yomuntu noma kaSathane futhi lokhu akulutho ngaphandle kwesenzo esiphikisa noma esihlubuka uNkulunkulu, hhayi esokulalela uNkulunkulu, futhi umsebenzi womuntu unikeza ukuphatha kuSathane. USathane uyogculiseka ngokugcwele kuphela lapho umuntu elalela futhi elandela uNkulunkulu enkathini elethwa nguNkulunkulu uqobo, ngoba yilowo umsebenzi wabantu abadaliwe. Ngakho ngithi kudingeka kuphela ukuthi ulandele futhi ulalele, akukho okunye ocelwa khona. Yilokho okuqondwe ukugcinwa yilowo nalowo komsebenzi Wakhe nokwenziwa komsebenzi Wakhe. UNkulunkulu uyawenza umsebenzi Wakhe futhi akamdingi umuntu ukuba enze umsebenzi Wakhe esikhundleni Sakhe, futhi akazibandakanyi nomsebenzi wabantu abadaliwe. Umuntu wenza umsebenzi wakhe futhi akagxambukeli emsebenzini kaNkulunkulu, lokho kuwukulalela kwangempela nobufakazi bokuthi uSathane unqotshiwe. Ngemva kokuba uNkulunkulu uqobo esengenise inkathi entsha akabe esasebenza phakathi kwabantu mathupha. Yilapho-ke umuntu ekwazi khona ukungena ngokusemthethweni enkathini entsha ukuze enze umsebenzi wakhe njengomuntu odaliwe. Zinjalo izimiso zokusebenza ezingeke zephulwe muntu. Ukusebenza ngale ndlela kuphela okuqondile futhi okunengqondo. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu wenziwa nguNkulunkulu uqobo. Nguye oqala umsebenzi futhi Nguye owuphothulayo. Nguye ohlela umsebenzi, futhi Nguye owuphathayo futhi ngaphezu kwalokho Nguye owenza ukuba umsebenzi ube yimpumelelo. Kunjengoba kushiwo eBhayibhelini, “Ngiyisiqalo futhi ngiyisiphetho; ngiwuMtshali noMvuni.” Konke okuhlobene nomsebenzi wokuphatha Kwakhe kwenziwa nguye Ngokwakhe. UnguMbusi wohlelo lokuphatha lweminyaka eyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha; akekho ongenza umsebenzi Wakhe esikhundleni Sakhe noma ongaphatha umsebenzi Wakhe ngoba Nguye olawula konke. Njengoba adala umhlaba, uyowuhola wonke umhlaba ukuze uphile ekukhanyeni Kwakhe futhi uyophetha yonke le nkathi ukuze enze ukuba uhlelo Lwakhe luthele izithelo!

288. Umsebenzi walo lonke uhlelo lokuphatha lukaNkulunkulu, wenziwa nguNkulunkulu Uqobo Lwakhe. Isigaba sokuqala—ukudalwa komhlaba—kwenziwa mathupha nguNkulunkulu Uqobo Lwakhe, futhi ukuba kwakungenziwanga, kwakungekho omunye owayengakwazi ukudala isintu; isigaba sesibili kwaba ukuhlengwa kwesintu sonke, nakho kwenziwa mathupha nguNkulunkulu Uqobo Lwakhe; isigaba sesithathu sisobala: Kunesidingo esikhulu nakakhulu sokuba isiphetho sawo wonke umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu senziwe nguNkulunkulu Uqobo Lwakhe mathupha. Umsebenzi wokuhlenga, wokunqoba, wokuzuza kanye nokuphelelisa isintu sisonkana wonke wenziwa mathupha nguNkulunkulu Uqobo Lwakhe. Uma ubengawenzanga lo msebenzi mathupha, ubunjalo Bakhe bebungeke bumelwe ngumuntu, noma umsebenzi wakhe wenziwe ngumuntu. Ukuze ehlule uSathane, ukuze azuze isintu, futhi ukuze anike umuntu impilo ejwayelekile emhlabeni, uhola umuntu mathupha futhi asebenze phakathi kwabantu mathupha; ngenxa yohlelo lwakhe lokuphatha lulonke, futhi ngenxa yomsebenzi wakhe wonke, kufanele awenze yena mathupha lomsebenzi. Uma umuntu ekholwa kuphela ukuthi uNkulunkulu weza ukubonwa nguye nokumjabulisa, izinkolelo ezinjalo azinasigqi, azisho lutho. Ulwazi lomuntu lukha phezulu kakhulu! Yingokuwenza Yena uqobo lwakhe kuphela indlela uNkulunkulu abengawenza lomsebenzi ngesineke nangokuphelele. Umuntu akakwazi ukuwenzela uNkulunkulu. Njengoba engenakho ubunjalo bukaNkulunkulu, noba ubukhona bakhe, akakwazi ukwenza umsebenzi Wakhe, futhi noma ngabe umuntu ubewenza, bewungeke ube namphumela. Okokuqala uNkulunkulu athatha isimo sesintu, kwakungenxa yokuhlenga, ukuhlenga sonke isintu esonweni, ukwenza umuntu akwazi ukuba ahlanzeka nokuthethelelwa izono zakhe. Umsebenzi wokunqoba nawo wenziwa nguNkulunkulu mathupha phakathi kwabantu. Uma, kule sigaba, uNkulunkulu ubekhuluma iziprofetho kuphela, umprofethi noma umuntu onesiphiwo ubengatholakala ukuthatha indawo yakhe; uma isiprofetho kuphela ebesikhulunywa, umuntu ubengamela uNkulunkulu. Kepha uma umuntu ubengenza mathupha umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uqobo lwakhe futhi ukuba ubengasebenza impilo yomuntu, ubengeke akwazi neze ukuwenza lomsebenzi. Kumele wenziwe mathupha nguNkulunkulu uqobo lwakhe: uNkulunkulu kufanele athathe isimo sesintu ukwenza lo msebenzi. ENkathini yezwi, uma isiprofetho kuphela besikhulunywa, umprofethi u-Isaya noma u-Elija ubengatholakala ukuwenza lo msebenzi, futhi besingeke sibe khona isidingo sokuthi uNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe awenze Yena mathupha. Ngenxa yokuthi umsebenzi owenziwe kulesi sigaba awukhona nje ukukhuluma ngesiphrofetho, futhi ngenxa yokuthi kubaluleke kakhulu, ukuthi umsebenzi wamazwi usetshenziselwe ukunqoba umuntu nokwehlula uSathane, lo msebenzi awunakwenziwa ngumuntu, futhi kufanele wenziwe mathupha nguNkulunkulu uqobo. ENkathini yoMthetho uJehova Wenza ingxenye yomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, emuva kwalokho Wakhuluma amazwi athile futhi wenza umsebenzi othile ngabaprofethi. Yingoba umuntu ubengawenza umsebenzi kaJehova, futhi iziboni zazikwazi ukubikezela izinto nokuhumusha amaphupho, zenzela Yena. Umsebenzi owenziwa ekuqaleni kwakungewona umsebenzi wokushintsha isimo somuntu ngqo, kuthi wawungahlangene nesono somuntu, futhi umuntu wayefanele ukugcina umthetho kuphela. Ngakho uJehova akazange athathe isimo sesintu futhi aziveze yena uqobo Lwakhe kumuntu; kunalokho Wakhuluma ngqo noMose nabanye, wabenza bakhuluma futhi basebenzela Yena, futhi wabenza ukuthi basebenze ngqo phakathi kwesintu. Isigaba sokuqala somsebenzi kaNkulunkulu kwabe kungukuhola umuntu. Kwabe kungukuqala kwempi noSathane, kodwa le mpi yayingakaqali ngokusemthethweni. Impi esemthethweni noSathane yaqala ngesikhathi uNkulunkulu ethatha isimo sesintu okokuqala, futhi isiqhubeke kwaze kwaba inamuhlanje. Isiwombe sokuqala salempi senzeka lapho uNkulunkulu othathe isimo sesintu ebethelwa esiphambanweni. Ukubethelwa kukaNkulunkulu othathe isimo sesintu kwehlula uSathane, kuthi kwabe kuyisigaba sokuqala sempi esinempulelo. Lapho uNkulunkulu othathe isimo sesintu eqala ngokuqondile ukusebenza impilo yomuntu, lokhu kwakuyisiqalo esisemthethweni somsebenzi wokuzuza umuntu, futhi ngenxa yokuthi lo kwakuwumsebenzi wokushintsha isimo somuntu esidala, kwakuwumsebenzi wokulwa noSathane. Isigaba somsebenzi esenziwe guJehova ekuqaleni kwakumane kungukuhola impilo yomuntu emhlabeni. Kwabe kungukuqala komsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, nakuba wawungakafaki impi, noma umsebenzi onzima, kwaba isisekelo somsebenzi wempi owawu seza. Emuva kwalokho, isigaba sesibili somsebenzi ngeNkathi yoMusa sasiphathelene nokushintsha isimo somuntu esidala, okusho ukuthi uNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe wasebenza impilo yomuntu. Lokhu kwakudingeka kwenziwe nguNkulunkulu mathupha: kwakufuneka ukuthi uNkulunkulu mathupha athathe isimo sesintu, futhi uma ubengasithatha isimo sesintu, akekho ubengathatha indawo Yakhe kulesi sigaba somsebenzi, ngoba sasimele umsebenzi wokulwa ngqo noSathane. Uma umuntu ubenzele uNkulunkulu lo msebenzi, lapho umuntu esemile phambi kwaSathane, uSathane ubengeke athobe kuthi bekungenakwenzeka ukumehlula. Kwakudingeka kube uNkulunkulu ethathe isimo sesintu owayezofika amehlule, ngoba ingqikithi kaNkulunkulu othathe isimo somuntu, kusenguNkulunkulu, useyimpilo yomuntu, futhi usenguMdali; noma kwenzekani, ubunjalo nengqikithi Yakhe ngeke kushintshe. Ngakho-ke, Wathatha isimo sesintu futhi wenza umsebenzi ukudala ukuzithoba okuphelele kukaSathane. Ngesikhathi sesigaba somsebenzi wasezinsukwini zokugcina, uma umuntu ubengenza lo msebenzi futhi uma ubengenziwa ukuthi akhulume amazwi ngqo, ubengeke akwazi ukuwakhuluma, futhi uma isiprofetho besishiwo, besingeke sikwazi ukunqoba umuntu. Ngokuthatha isimo sesintu, uNkulunkulu uyeza ukuzohlula uSathane nokudala ukuzithoba kwakhe okuphelele. Lapho ehlula uSathane ngokuphelele, futhi uyamzuza umuntu ngokuphelele, emuva kwalokhu lesi sigaba somsebenzi siyophela futhi impumelelo izuzwe. Ekuphatheni kukaNkulunkulu, umuntu akakwazi ukummela uNkulunkulu. Esikakhulukazi, umsebenzi wokuhola inkathi kanye nokuqalisa umsebenzi omusha udinga kakhulu impela ukwenziwa mathupha nguNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe. Ukunika abantu izambulo nokubahlinkeka ngesiprofetho kungenziwa ngumuntu, kodwa uma kuwumsebenzi okufanele wenziwe mathupha nguNkulunkulu, umsebenzi wempi phakathi kwaNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe kanye noSathane, ngakho lomsebenzi awukwazi ukwenziwa ngumuntu. Esigabeni sokuqala somsebenzi, lapho kwakungekho mpi noSathane, uJehova wahola abantu bakwa-Israyeli mathupha, esebenziza isiprofetho esasikhulunywa ngaba profethi. Emuva kwalokho, isigaba sesibili somsebenzi kwabe kungukulwa noSathane, futhi uNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe wathatha isimo sesintu, weza esenyameni, ukwenza lo msebenzi. Nanoma yini ephathelene nempi noSathane, futhi iphathelene nokuthatha isimo sesintu kukaNkulunkulu, okusho ukuthi lempi ngeke iliwe ngumuntu. Uma umuntu ubengalwa impi, ubengeke akwazi ukuhlula uSathane. Ubengaba kanjani namandla okulwa naye njengoba esengaphansi kwamandla akhe? Umuntu uphakathi nendawo: Uma uncika ngakuSathane, ungowaSathane, kodwa uma wenelisa uNkulunkulu ungoka Nkulunkulu. Uma umuntu ebengamela uNkulunkulu emsebenzini walempi, ubengakwazi? Uma ubekwenzile, ubengeke kube sewabhubha kudala? Ubengeke kube sewangena ezweni labafileyo kudala? Ngakho, umuntu akakwazi ukuthatha indawo kaNkulunkulu emsebenzini Wakhe, okungukuthi umuntu akanayo ingqikithi kaNkulunkulu, futhi uma ubengalwa noSathane bengeke akwazi ukumehlula. Umuntu angenza umsebenzi othile kuphela; angabazuza abantu abathile, kodwa akakwazi ukumela uNkulunkulu emsebenzini kaNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe. Ubengalwa kanjani umuntu noSathane? USathane ubengakuthumba ngisho ngaphambi kokuthi uqale. Kulapho kuphela uNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe elwa noSathane futhi umuntu elandela futhi elalela uNkulunkulu kulesi sisekelo, lapho umuntu engazuzwa uNkulunkulu futhi aphunyuke ezibophweni zikaSathane. Lokho umuntu angaphumelela ukukwenza ngokuhlakanipha namakhono akhe kunemigomo kakhulu; akakwazi ukwenza umuntu aphelele, ukumhola, futhi nakakhulu, ukumehlula uSathane. Ingqondo nokuhlakanipha komuntu akukwazi ukubhuntshisa amacebo kaSathane, ngakho umuntu ubengalwa kanjani ngako?

289. Wonke umsebenzi kule minyaka eyizi-6,000 uye ngokushintsha kancane kancane ngokuhambisana nesikhathi. Ushintsho kulo msebenzi lwenzeke ngokuhambisana nesimo somhlaba wonke. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu wokuphatha uguquke kancane kancane ngokulandela ukushintsha kwemikhuba yesintu sisonke; hhayi ukuthi kwakuhlelwe ekuqaleni kokudala. Ngaphambi kokuthi kudalwe umhlaba, noma emva nje kokuthi udaliwe, uJehova wayengakasihleli isigaba sokuqala somsebenzi, leso somthetho; isigaba sesibili, leso esomusa; noma isigaba sesithathu, esokunqoba, lezi okokuqala ayezozisebenza phakathi kweqembu labantu–abanye beyizizukulwane zikaMowabi, kanti kusukela ngalokhu uzonqoba umhlaba wonke. Akazange akhulume la mazwi emva kokudala umhlaba; akazange akhulume lawa mazwi emva kukaMowabi, angiyiphathi-ke eyangaphambi kukaLoti. Wonke umsebenzi Wakhe wenziwa ngokuzenzakalelayo. Lena yindlela uhlelo lomsebenzi Wakhe wokuphatha lweminyaka eyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha elenzeka ngayo; akunakwenzeka ukuthi wayelubhale phansi lolu hlelo lube Yishadi Lokufingqiwe leNtuthuko Yesintu ngaphambi kokuthi adale umhlaba. Emsebenzini kaNkulunkulu, uchaza ngokuqondile ngalokho ayikho Yena; akazikhathazi umqondo ezama ukwakha uhlelo. Yiqiniso, abaprofethi abaningi bakhulume iziprofetho eziningi, kodwa noma kunjalo akukashiwo ukuthi umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ubuvele uwuhlelo olwenziwe; iziprofetho zenziwa ngokomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ongokoqobo. Wonke umsebenzi Wakhe umsebenzi wangempela. Wenza umsebenzi Wakhe ngokuthuthuka kwesikhathi, futhi wenza umsebenzi Wakhe wempela ngokuhambisana nokushintsha kwezinto. Kuye, ukwenza umsebenzi kuyafana nokuphuza umuthi wokugula okuthile; ngenkathi enza umsebenzi Wakhe uyabheka; usebenza ngalokhu akubonile. Kuzo zonke izigaba zomsebenzi Wakhe, uyakwazi ukwembula ukuhlakanipha Kwakhe okukhulu nokuveza ikhono Lakhe elikhulu; uveza ukuhlakanipha Kwakhe okukhulu negunya Lakhe ngokomsebenzi wangaleso sikhathi enzele nokuthi labo bantu ababuyiswa Nguye ngesikhathi saleyo minyaka babone isimo Sakhe sonke. Unika abantu abakudingayo enze umsebenzi okumele awenze ngokomsebenzi okumele wenziwe ngokweminyaka ngayinye; unika abantu izidingo zabo ngokwezinga uSathane abakhohlakalise ngalo. … Awukho umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu phakathi kwesintu owase uvele ulungisiwe ngenkathi kudalwa umhlaba; kunalokho, kwaba ukuthuthuka kwezinto okwenza uNkulunkulu enze umsebenzi Wakhe isinyathelo ngesinyathelo ngokwangempela nokwangokoqobo ngokwengeziwe phakathi kwesintu. Lokhu kufana nokuthi uJehova uNkulunkulu azange adale inyoka ukuze ilinge owesifazane. Kwakungelona uhlelo Lwakhe oluthile, futhi kwakungeyona into ayihlela kudala ngenhloso; singathi nje lokhu kwakungalindelekile. Kwaba ngenxa yalokhu ukuthi uJehova axoshe u-Adamu no-Eva eNsimini yase-Edene wase efunga ukuthi angeke aphinde adale umuntu. Kodwa ukuhlakanipha kukaNkulunkulu kutholwa abantu kulesi sisekelo, njengephuzu engilibalule ekuqaleni: “Ukuhlakanipha Kwami kusebenza ngamacebo kaSathane.” Noma ngabe isintu sakhohlakala kangakanani noma inyoka isilinga kanjani, uJehova wayesenakho ukuhlakanipha Kwakhe; ngakho-ke, ubelokhu enza umsebenzi omusha selokhu adala umhlaba, futhi akukho zinyathelo zalo msebenzi ezake zaphindwa. USathane uyaqhubeka nokwenza amaqhinga; isintu siyaqhubeka nokukhohlakaliswa nguSathane, kanti noJehova uyaqhubeka nokwenza umsebenzi Wakhe ohlakaniphile. Akakaze ahluleke, akaze ayeke umsebenzi Wakhe kusukela ekudalweni komhlaba kuze kube manje. Emva kokuthi isintu sikhohlakaliswe uSathane, waqhubeka wasebenza esintwini ukuze anqobe isitha Sakhe esikhohlakalisa isintu. Le mpi izoqhubeka kusukela ekuqaleni kuze kube sekupheleni komhlaba. Ekwenzeni wonke lo msebenzi, akazange nje kuphela avumele isintu, esikhohlakaliswe uSathane, ukuthi sithole ukusindiswa Kwakhe okukhulu, kodwa wasenza ukuthi sibone ukuhlakanipha Kwakhe, ubuninimandla onke kanye negunya Lakhe, kanti ekugcineni uzokwenza isintu sibone isimo Sakhe sokulunga—ajezise ababi anike abalungile umvuzo. Ulwe noSathane kwaze kwaba namuhla kodwa akaze anqontshwe, ngoba unguNkulunkulu onokuhlakanipha, ukuhlakanipha Kwakhe kusebenza ngamaqhinga kaSathane. Ngalokho-ke akenzi kuphela konke okusezulwini kuthobele igunya Lakhe; kodwa uphinde enze konke okusemhlabeni kube isenabelo sezinyawo Zakhe, futhi akupheleli lapho, wenza bonke abenzi bokubi abahlasela nabahlukumeze isintu bawele ekusoleni Kwakhe. Yonke imiphumela yomsebenzi iphuma ngenxa yokuhlakanipha Kwakhe. Akakaze akuveze ukuhlakanipha Kwakhe ngaphambi kokuba khona kwesintu, ngoba wayengenasitha ezulwini, emhlabeni, noma endaweni yonke, futhi yayingekho imimoya yobumnyama eyahlasela yonke into endalweni. Emva kokuthi ingelosi enkulu imkhaphele, wadala isintu emhlabeni, futhi kwakungenxa yesintu ukuba aqale ngokusemthethweni impi yeminyaka eyinkulungwane yesikhathi eside noSathane, ingelosi enkulu, impi eya ngokushuba kakhulu ngesigaba ngasinye esiyimpumelelo. Ubuninimandla onke nokuhlakanipha Kwakhe kuyabonakala kulezi zigaba ngazinye. Kungalesi sikhathi kuphela lapho konke okusezulwini nokusemhlabeni kubona khona ukuhlakanipha kukaNkulunkulu, ubuninimandla onke, ikakhulukazi ukuba ngokoqobo kukaNkulunkulu. Usawenza ngale ndlela engokoqobo nanamuhla umsebenzi Wakhe; phezu kwalokho, njengoba enza umsebenzi Wakhe wembula ukuhlakanipha nobuninimandla onke Bakhe; wenza ukuthi nibone iqiniso langaphakathi lesigaba ngasinye somsebenzi, ukuze ubone ukuthi ungakuchaza kanjani ukuba umninimandla onke Kwakhe, ikakhulukazi ukuthi ungakuchaza kanjani ukuba ngokoqobo kukaNkulunkulu.

290. Umsebenzi woMoya oNgcwele uhlale uzenzakalela noma nini; noma ngasiphi isikhathi ehlela umsebenzi Wakhe, uMoya oNgcwele uzowenza. Kungani ngihlale ngithi umsebenzi woMoya oNgcwele uyiqiniso? Ngithi uhlale umusha awubi mdala, futhi uhlale wenziwe ngaleso sikhathi? Umsebenzi Wakhe wawungahleliwe ngenkathi kudalwa umhlaba; azange kwenzeke kanjalo nhlobo! Zonke izinyathelo zomsebenzi zenzeka ngokwesikhathi sangaleso sikhathi, futhi ayiphazamisani. Ziningi izikhathi lapho izinhlelo ezisengqondweni yakho zingahambisani sanhlobo nomsebenzi wakamuva owenziwe uMoya oNgcwele. Umsebenzi Wakhe awulula njengoba abantu becabanga, futhi awunzima njengoba abantu bebona sengathi unjalo; ubandakanya ukunikeza abantu noma ngasiphi isikhathi nakuyiphi indawo ngokwezidingo zabo. Akekho owazi ubuqu babantu njengoba Yena ebazi, kungenxa yalesi sizathu ukuthi ayikho into eyenelisa izidingo zabantu njengoba kwenza umsebenzi Wakhe. Ngalokho-ke, ngokubona kwabantu, umsebenzi Wakhe wahlelwa eminyakeni yenkulungwane eminingi eyedlule. Njengoba esebenza phakathi kwenu manje, ngokwezimo zenu, wenza umsebenzi akhulume noma ingasiphi isikhathi nakuyiphi indawo. Uma abantu besezimweni ezithile, ukhuluma lawo mazwi okuyiwo abawadingayo ngokunembile kubona ngaphakathi. Kufana nesinyathelo sokuqala somsebenzi Wakhe izikhathi zokusola. Emva kwezikhathi zokusola, abantu bakhombisa izindlela ezithile zokuziphatha, bamhlubuka ngezindlela ezithile, izimo ezithile ezinhle zavela, kwavela nezinye izimo ezithile ezimbi, kwathi imikhawulo ephezulu yalezi zinto yafinyelela ezingeni elithile. UNkulunkulu wenza umsebenzi Wakhe usekelwe yizo zonke lezi zinto, ngalokho wasebenzisa leli thuba ukuthola imiphumela engcono yomsebenzi Wakhe. Yena nje wenza umsebenzi Wakhe wokuhlinzeka kubantu ngokwezimo zabo zangaleso sikhathi. Wenza isinyathelo ngasinye somsebenzi Wakhe ngokwezimo zabantu zangempela. Indalo yonke isezandleni Zakhe; kungenzeka yini ukuthi angayazi? Ngokubona izimo zabantu, uNkulunkulu wenza isinyathelo esilandelayo somsebenzi okumele wenziwe, noma ingasiphi isikhathi nanoma ikuyiphi indawo. Ngeke kwenzeke ukuthi lo msebenzi wawuhlelwe eminyakeni eyizinkulungwane ezedlule; lokhu indlela abantu ababona ngayo! Usebenza ngokubona umphumela womsebenzi Wakhe, futhi umsebenzi Wakhe uyaqhubeka ujula futhi ushintsha; njengoba ebuka umphumela womsebenzi Wakhe, wenza isinyathelo esilandelayo somsebenzi Wakhe. Usebenzisa izinto eziningi ukushintsha kancane kancane nokwenza umsebenzi Wakhe omusha ubonakale kubantu uma isikhathi siqhubeka. Lolu hlobo lomsebenzi luyakwazi ukuhlinzeka izidingo zabantu, ngoba uNkulunkulu ubazi kahle abantu. Lena iyona ndlela enza ngayo umsebenzi Wakhe esezulwini. Kanjalo, uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu wenza umsebenzi ngendlela efanayo, uhlela ngokoqobo futhi usebenza phakathi kwesintu. Awukho umsebenzi Wakhe owahlelwa ngaphambi kokudalwa komhlaba, futhi azange uhlelwe ngokunembile ngaphambilini. Eminyakeni eyizi-2,000 emva kokudalwa komhlaba uJehova wabona ukuthi isintu sesikhohlakele kakhulu waze wasebenzisa umlomo womphrofethi u-Isaya ukuphrofetha ukuthi uma Inkathi Yomthetho isiphelile, usezokwenza umsebenzi Wakhe wokuhlenga isintu eNkathini Yomusa. Lolu kwakuwuhlelo lukaJehova, yebo, kodwa lolu hlelo nalo lwenziwa ngokwezimo azibona ngaleso sikhathi; akazange akucabange ngokushesha emva kokudala u-Adamu. U-Isaya waprofetha nje kuphela, kodwa uJehova akazange aqale ngokwenza amalungiselelo alokhu ngesikhathi seNkathi Yomthetho; kunalokho, wawuqala lo msebenzi ekuqaleni kweNkathi Yomusa, ngenkathi isithunywa sifika kuJosefa ngephupho futhi simkhanyisela, simtshela ukuthi uNkulunkulu uzoba yinyama, ngalokho kwaqala umsebenzi Wakhe wokuba kukaNkulunkulu esimweni somuntu. UNkulunkulu azange, njengoba abantu becabanga, awulungiselele umsebenzi Wakhe wakuba kukaNkulunkulu sesimweni somuntu emva kokudala umhlaba; lokhu kwanqunywa kuphela ngokwezinga lokuthuthuka kwesintu kanye nesimo sempi Yakhe noSathane.

291. Ukuphatha kukaNkulunkulu kukonke kwahlukaniseke izigaba ezintathu, futhi esigabeni ngasinye, kudingeka okufanele leso sigaba kumuntu. Phezu kwalokho, njengoba kuhamba iminyaka futhi iqhubekela phambili, okudingwa uNkulunkulu kumuntu kuyaphakama kakhulu. Ngakho, esigabeni nesigaba, umsebenzi wokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu ufinyelela esicongweni, umuntu aze abone iqiniso “ngokubonakala Kwezwi enyameni,” futhi ngale ndlela okudingeka kumuntu kuphakama kakhulu, futhi okudingeka kumuntu ekufakazeni kuphakama ngaphezu kwalokho. Uma umuntu ekhula emandleni okusebenzisana noNkulunkulu ngokweqiniso, iyakhula indlela adumisa ngayo uNkulunkulu. Ukusebenzisana Naye komuntu kuwubufakazi okudingeka ukuthi abe nabo, futhi ubufakazi anabo buwukwenza komuntu. Ngakho, ukuthi ngabe umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu unomthelela ofunekayo, nokuthi ngabe bukhona ubufakazi bangempela, kuxhunyaniswe kakhulu nokusebenzisana kanye nobufakazi bomuntu. Uma sewuqediwe umsebenzi, okusho ukuthi, uma konke ukuphatha kukaNkulunkulu kufinyelela esiphethweni, umuntu kuzodingeka ukuthi abe nobufakazi obuphakeme kakhulu, futhi uma umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ufinyelela esiphethweni, ukungena komuntu kufinyelela esicongweni. Phambilini, kwakudingeka ukuthi umuntu ahambisane nomthetho kanye nemiyalelo, futhi kwakudingeka ukuthi abakezele futhi athobeke. Namuhla, kudingeka ukuthi umuntu alalele zonke izinhlelo zikaNkulunkulu futhi abe nothando oluphakeme lukaNkulunkulu, futhi ekugcineni kudingeka ukuthi aqhubeke nokuthanda uNkulunkulu phakathi kokuhlushwa. Lezi zigaba ezintathu zidingwa uNkulunkulu kumuntu, isinyathelo nenesinyathelo, ekuphatheni Kwakhe kukonke. Isigaba ngasinye somsebenzi kaNkulunkulu sijula ngaphezu kwesokugcina, futhi esigabeni ngasinye okudingeka kumuntu kukhulu kakhulu kunokokugcina, futhi ngale ndlela, ukuphatha kukaNkulunkulu kukonke kuya ngokuya kuhlangana. Isizathu salokhu ukuthi okudingeka kumuntu kuphakeme kakhulu kunesimo somuntu futhi kusondelene nezilinganiso zikaNkulunkulu, futhi yilapho lapho isintu sonke siya ngokuya sisuka ethonyeni likaSathane kuze kube wukuthi, umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ufinyelela ekupheleni nya, isintu sisonke sizobe sisindile ethonyeni likaSathane. Uma sekufika leso sikhathi, umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uyobe usufinyelele ekupheleni, futhi ukusebenzisana komuntu noNkulunkulu ukuze afinyelele ekuguqukeni kwesimo sakhe kuyobe kungasekho, futhi isintu sonke siyophila ekukhanyeni kukaNkulunkulu, futhi kusukela lapho, ngeke kusaba khona ukuhlubuka kuNkulunkulu. UNkulunkulu ngeke esafuna lutho kumuntu, futhi kuzoba nokusebenzisana okuhle phakathi komuntu noNkulunkulu, okunye kwakho kuzoba impilo yomuntu noNkulunkulu ngokuzwana, impilo evela emuva kokuba ukuphatha kukaNkulunkulu sekuqedwe nya, futhi nomuntu esesindiswe uNkulunkulu ngokugcwele ekuxhakathisweni nguSathane. Labo abangakwazi ukulandela ezinyathelweni zikaNkulunkulu abakwazi ukuthola lolo hlobo lwempilo. Bazobe sebezehlisele ebumnyameni, lapho beyokhala futhi bagedle amazinyo abo; bangabantu abakholwa kuNkulunkulu kodwa abangamlandeli, abakholwa uNkulunkulu kodwa abangalaleli wonke umsebenzi Wakhe. Njengoba umuntu ekholwa kuNkulunkulu, kumele alandele eduze ezinyathelweni zikaNkulunkulu, isinyathelo nesinyathelo; kumele “alandele iMvana noma ngabe iya kuphi.” Yilaba bantu kuphela abafuna indlela yeqiniso, yibo abazi umsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele. Abantu abalandela njengezigqila amagama nezimfundiso yilabo abakhishiwe ngumsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele. Esikhathini ngasinye, uNkulunkulu uzoqala umsebenzi omusha, futhi esikhathini ngasinye, kuzoba nesiqalo esisha kubantu. Uma umuntu elandela iqiniso lokuthi “uJehova nguNkulunkulu” futhi “uJesu nguKristu,” okungamaqiniso asebenza kuphela enkathini eyodwa, umuntu-ke akasoze ahambisana nomsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele, futhi uyohlala engakwazi ukuzuza umsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele.

292. UNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe uza ukuzovula inkathi futhi uNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe uza ukuzoqeda inkathi. Umuntu akakwazi ukwenza umsebenzi wokuqala inkathi nokuphetha inkathi. Ukuba uJesu akazange afikise umsebenzi kaJehova ekupheleni emva kokufika Kwakhe, lokho-ke kwakuyoba ubufakazi bokuthi wayengumuntu nje futhi engakwazi ukumela uNkulunkulu. Ngenxa kanye yokuthi uJesu weza waphetha umsebenzi kaJehova, waqhuba umsebenzi kaJehova futhi, ngaphezu kwalokho, wenza umsebenzi Wakhe, umsebenzi omusha, kubonisa ukuthi lokhu kwakuyinkathi entsha nokuthi uJesu wayenguNkulunkulu uqobo. Benza izigaba zomsebenzi ezehlukene ngokucacile. Esinye isigaba sasenziwa ethempelini, kanti esinye sasenziwa ngaphandle kwalo. Omunye wale misebenzi wawungukuhola abantu ngendlela yomthetho kanti omunye wawungukunikela umnikelo wesono. Zombili lezi zigaba zomsebenzi zazehlukene ngokusobala; lokhu kwehlukanisa inkathi entsha kwendala, futhi kuliqiniso elimsulwa ukuthi ziyizinkathi ezimbili ezehlukene. Indawo yomsebenzi Wabo yayehlukene futhi umongo womsebenzi Wabo wawehlukene futhi nezinhloso zomsebenzi Wabo zazehlukene. Ngakho, zingahlukaniswa zibe yizinkathi ezimbili: ITestamente Elisha neTestamente Elidala, okuwukuthi, inkathi entsha nendala. Lapho uJesu efika akangenanga ethempelini, okufakazela ukuthi inkathi kaJehova yayisiphelile. Akangenanga ethempelini ngoba umsebenzi kaJehova ethempelini wawusuphelile, futhi wawungasadingi ukuphinde wenziwe, futhi ukuwenza futhi kwakuyoba ukuwuphinda. Kwaba ngokushiya ithempeli, ukuqala umsebenzi omusha kanye nokuvula indlela entsha ngaphandle kwethempeli, lapho akwazi khona ukufikisa umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu esicongweni sawo. Ukuba akaphumanga ethempelini ukuyokwenza umsebenzi Wakhe, umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu wawuyoma ndawonye ezisekelweni zethempeli, futhi kwakungeke kube nezinguquko ezintsha. Ngakho, lapho uJesu efika akangenanga ethempelini, futhi akenzanga umsebenzi Wakhe phakathi ethempelini. Wenza umsebenzi Wakhe ngaphandle kwethempeli, futhi, ehola abafundi, wenza umsebenzi Wakhe ngokukhululeka. Ukuhamba kukaNkulunkulu ethempelini ukuyokwenza umsebenzi Wakhe kwasho ukuthi uNkulunkulu wayenohlelo olusha. Umsebenzi wakhe wawuzokwenziwa ngaphandle kwethempeli, futhi kwakuzoba umsebenzi omusha owawungeke ubambeke endleleni yokwenziwa kwawo. Eqeda nje ukufika uJesu, waqeda umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu wangesikhathi seTestamente Elidala. Nakuba zazibizwa ngamagama amabili angafani, kwaba nguMoya owodwa owafeza zombili lezi zigaba zomsebenzi, futhi nomsebenzi owawenziwa wawuqhubeka njalo Njengoba igama lalehlukile, nokuqukethwe umsebenzi kwakwehlukile, inkathi yayihlukile. Lapho uJehova efika, leyo kwakuyinkathi kaJehova nalapho uJesu efika, leyo kwakuyinkathi kaJesu. Ngakho, isikhathi ngasinye lapho lowo nalowo efika, uNkulunkulu ubizwa ngegama elilodwa, umela inkathi eyodwa futhi uvula indlela entsha, athathe igama elisha, okubonisa ukuthi uNkulunkulu uhlala emusha futhi akagugi, okuwukuthi umsebenzi Wakhe awuyeki ukuqhubekela phambili. Umlando uhlala uqhubekela phambili nomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uhlala uqhubekela phambili. Ukuze uhlelo lweminyaka eziyinkulungwane eziyisithupha lufinyelele esiphethweni, kumele luhlale luqhubeka luya phambili. Usuku nosuku, kufanele enze umsebenzi omusha, unyaka nonyaka kumele enze umsebenzi omusha; kumele aqale izindlela ezintsha, kumele aqale izinkathi ezintsha, aqale umsebenzi omusha nomkhulu, futhi kanye nalokhu alethe amagama amasha nomsebenzi omusha. Ukusuka emzuzwini kuya emzuzwini, uMoya kaNkulunkulu wenza umsebenzi omusha, ungabambeleli ezindleleni nasemithethweni emidala. Futhi umsebenzi Wakhe awukaze ume, kodwa uyenzeka ngomzuzu nomzuzu owedlulayo. … Kusukela emsebenzini kaJehova kuya kokaJesu, futhi kusukela emsebenzini kaJesu kuya kulowo wesigaba samanje, lezi zigaba ezintathu zihlanganisa ngentambo enganqamuki bonke ububanzi bokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu futhi yonke iyimisebenzi eyenziwa nguMoya owodwa. Kusukela ekudalweni komhlaba, uNkulunkulu yilokhu esebenza ephatha isintu. UyiSiqalo neSiphetho, futhi uyiLowo oqala inkathi naLowo ophetha inkathi. Izigaba ezintathu zomsebenzi, ezinkathini ezehlukene nasezindaweni ezehlukene, ngaphandle kwephutha zingumsebenzi woMoya owodwa. Bonke labo abahlukanisa lezi zigaba baphikisa uNkulunkulu. Manje, kumele uqonde ukuthi wonke umsebenzi kusukela esigabeni sokuqala kuze kube namuhla uwumsebenzi kaNkulunkulu oyedwa, umsebenzi woMoya owodwa. Ngalokhu akukho kungabaza.

293. Ngesikhathi ifika iNkosi uJesu, yasebenzisa izenzo ezibonakalayo ukuze ikhulume nabantu: UNkulunkulu wayesesukile eNkathini Yomthetho futhi eseqale umsebenzi omusha, kanti lo msebenzi omusha wawungadingi ukugcinwa kweSabatha; ngesikhathi uNkulunkulu ephuma emikhawulweni yosuku lweSabatha, lokhu kwakungamazwibela omsebenzi Wakhe omusha, umsebenzi wangempela futhi omkhulu wawuseza. Ngesikhathi iNkosi uJesu iqala umsebenzi Wayo, yayisishiye ngemuva izintambo zeNkathi Yomthetho, futhi yayisidlubulundele emigomeni nezimiso zangaleyo nkathi. Kuyena, kwakungekho nokuncane oluhambisana nomthetho; Wayesewulahla ngokuphelele futhi engasawugcini, futhi wayengasadingi ukuba isintu siwugcine. Ngakho lapha uyabona ukuthi iNkosi uJesu yadabula emasimini ngeSabatha; iNkosi ayiphumulanga, kodwa yayingaphandle isebenza. Lesi senzo Sakhe sethusa indlela abantu ababecabanga ngayo futhi Wabatshela ukuthi Yena akasaphili ngaphansi komthetho, nanokuthi useyishiyile imikhawulo yeSabatha wabe esevela phambi kwesintu futhi phakathi kwabo ngomfanekiso omusha, nange ndlela entsha yokusebenza. Lesi senzo Sakhe satshengisa abantu ukuthi Yena ufike nomsebenzi omusha owaqala ngokuthi uphume emthethweni futhi uphume naseSabatheni. Ngesikhathi uNkulunkulu enza umsebenzi Wakhe omusha, akabuyanga esanamathela kokudala, futhi wayengasakhathazekile ngezinqubo zeNkathi Yomthetho. Futhi wayengaphazamiswa umsebenzi Wakhe wangenkathi engaphambilini, kodwa Wasebenza ngokujwayelekile ngeSabatha futhi ngesikhathi abafundi Bakhe sebelambile, bakha izikhwebu badla. Konke lokhu kwakujwayelekile emehlweni kaNkulunkulu. UNkulunkulu wayengaba nesiqalo esisha somsebenzi Wakhe omningi afuna ukuwenza kanye nezinto afuna ukuzisho. Uma eke waba nesiqalo esisha, Yena akabe esakhuluma ngomsebenzi Wakhe omdala noma aqhubeke nawo. Ngokuba uNkulunkulu unezimiso Zakhe emsebenzini Wakhe. Ngesikhathi Yena efuna ukwenza umsebenzi omusha, kungesikhathi lapho efuna ukuletha isintu esigabeni esisha somsebenzi Wakhe, futhi lapho umsebenzi Wakhe usungene esigabeni esiphezulu ngokuthe xaxa. Uma abantu beqhubeka nokwenza ngendlela yokushiwo kudala noma imigomo noma beqhubeka nokubambelela kukho, Yena ngeke akukhumbule noma akutuse lokho. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi Yena uselethe umsebenzi omusha, futhi usengene esigabeni esisha somsebenzi Wakhe. Uma eqala umsebenzi omusha, Uvela kubantu enomfanekiso omusha, ngasohlangothini olusha sha, futhi nangendlela entsha sha ukuze abantu babone izingxenye ezahlukene zesimo Sakhe kanye nalokhu anakho nayikho. Lena enye yezinjongo Zakhe emsebenzini Wakhe omusha. UNkulunkulu akabambeleli kokudala noma athathe indlela eyaziwayo; uma Yena esebenza futhi ekhuluma, akukho nzima ngale ndlela abantu abacabanga ngayo. KuNkulunkulu, konke kumahhala futhi kukhululiwe, futhi akukho ukuthikanyezwa, akukho izithiyo—lokhu akuletha esintwini inkululeko nokukhululwa kodwa. UnguNkulunkulu ophilayo, uNkulunkulu okhona ngobuqotho nangeqiniso. Yena akasiwo unodoli noma isithombe sobumba, futhi uhluke kakhulu ezithixweni abantu abazingcwelisayo futhi bazidumise. Yena uyaphila futhi unomdlandla, futhi lokho okulethwa amazwi nomsebenzi Wakhe kubantu kungukuphila kanye nokukhanya kuphela, inkululeko nokukhululwa kuphela, ngokuba uphethe iqiniso, ukuphila, kanye nendlela—Akakhinyabezwa yilutho kunoma imuphi umsebenzi Wakhe. Noma ngabe abantu bathini futhi noma ngabe babona kanjani noma bawuhlola kanjani umsebenzi Wakhe omusha, Uzokwenza umsebenzi Wakhe ngaphandle kokukhononda. Akakhathazeki ngemicabanga yanoma ubani noma ngeminwe ekhomba ngokusola emsebenzini nasemazwini Akhe, ngisho noma ukumelana nokuphikisana kwabo Naye okunamandla, emsebenzini Wakhe omusha. Akukho noyedwa phakathi kwendalo ongasebenzisa ukucabanga komuntu, noma ukubona ngamehlo engqondo komuntu, ulwazi, noma ubuqotho bomuntu ukukala noma ukuchaza lokhu okwenziwa uNkulunkulu, ukujivaza noma ukuketula umsebenzi Wakhe. Akukho ukuthikanyezwa emsebenzini Wakhe nakulokho kwenzayo, futhi ngeke kwavinjwa yinoma imuphi umuntu, into, noma okuthile, futhi ngeke aphazanyiswa imimoya yobutha.

294. UNkulunkulu ukhuluma amazwi Akhe enze nomsebenzi Wakhe ngokwezinkathi ezehlukene, nasezinkathini ezehlukene, ukhuluma amazwi ehlukene. UNkulunkulu akathobeli mithetho, noma aphinde umsebenzi ofanayo, noma abe nenkumbulo yezinto zesikhathi esedlule; unguNkulunkulu ohlala emusha njalo akabi mdala, futhi nsuku zonke ukhuluma amazwi amasha. Kumele uthobele konke okumele kuthotshelwe namuhla; lona ngumthwalo nomsebenzi womuntu. Kubalulekile ukuthi okwenziwayo kubekwe ekukhanyeni nasemazwini kaNkulunkulu amanje. UNkulunkulu akathobeli mithetho, futhi uyakwazi ukukhuluma ngezindlela ezehlukene ukuze ukuhlakanipha nokuba namandla onke Kwakhe kucace. Akunandaba noma ukhuluma njengoMoya, noma njengomuntu, noma njengomuntu wesithathu—uNkulunkulu uhlale enguNkulunkulu, futhi awunakusho ukuthi akayena uNkulunkulu ngenxa yokuthi ukhuluma esesimweni somuntu. Phakathi kwabanye abantu kuqubuke imicabango ngenxa yezindlela ezehlukene uNkulunkulu akhuluma ngazo. Abantu abanjalo abanalwazi ngoNkulunkulu, futhi abawazi umsebenzi Wakhe. Ukube uNkulunkulu ubehlala ekhuluma ngendlela eyodwa, ngabe abantu abazange babeke imithetho ngoNkulunkulu? UNkulunkulu ubengamvumela umuntu ukuthi enze ngale ndlela? Noma ngabe iyiphi indlela uNkulunkulu akhuluma ngayo, uNkulunkulu unenhloso ngendlela ngayinye. Uma uNkulunkulu ubezohlala ekhuluma ngendlela kaMoya, ubuzokwazi ukukhuluma Naye? Kanjalo, ngezinye izikhathi ukhuluma njengomuntu wesithathu ukukunikeza amazwi Akhe futhi akuholele eqinisweni. Konke okwenziwa nguNkulunkulu kufanele. Kafushane, konke kwenziwa nguNkulunkulu, futhi akumele ukungabaze nakancane lokho. Inqobo nje uma enguNkulunkulu, akukhathaleki ukuthi ukhuluma ngayiphi indlela, usenguNkulunkulu. Leli iqiniso elingephikiswe. Noma ngabe usebenza kanjani, usenguNkulunkulu, futhi ingqikithi Yakhe ayisoze iguquke! UPetru wamthanda uNkulunkulu kakhulu futhi wayeyindoda eyayifuna inhliziyo kaNkulunkulu, kodwa uNkulunkulu akazange ambone njengeNkosi noma uKristu, ngoba ingqikithi yomuntu iyile nto eyiyo, futhi ngeke iguquke. Emsebenzini Wakhe, uNkulunkulu akathobeli mithetho, kodwa usebenzisa izindlela ezihlukene ukwenza umsebenzi Wakhe ube yimpumelelo futhi akhulise ulwazi lomuntu Ngaye. Yonke indlela Yakhe yokusebenza isiza umuntu ukuba amazi Yena, futhi ilungele ukuphelelisa umuntu. Noma ngabe usebenzisa yiphi indlela yokusebenza, indlela ngayinye ilungele ukwakha futhi iphelelise umuntu. Yize enye yezindlela Zakhe kungenzeka ukuthi yadonsa isikhathi eside, ngeyokuthi ithinte ukholo lomuntu Kuye. Ngalokho akumele nibe nokungabaza. Lezi yizo zonke izinyathelo zomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, futhi kumele uzilalele.

295. UNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu wezinsuku zokugcina ufike ikakhulukazi ukuzokhuluma amazwi Akhe, ukuchaza konke okudingekayo empilweni yomuntu, ukukhombisa lokho umuntu okufuneka angene kukho, ukukhombisa umuntu izenzo zikaNkulunkulu, ukukhombisa umuntu ukuhlakanipha, ukuba namandla onke kanye nokumangalisa kukaNkulunkulu. Ngezindlela eziningi uNkulunkulu akhuluma ngazo, umuntu ubona ukuphakama kukaNkulunkulu, ubukhulu bukaNkulunkulu, kanye, ngaphezulu kwalokho, ukuthobeka nokufihlakala kukaNkulunkulu. Umuntu uyabona ukuthi uNkulunkulu unobukhosi, futhi uthobekile, futhi ucashile futhi angaba omncane kunabo bonke. Amanye amazwi akhe akhulunywa ngeso likaMoya, amanye amazwi akhe akhulunywa ngeso lomuntu, futhi amanye amazwi akhe akhulunywa ngeso lomuntu wesithathu. Kulokhu kuyabonakala ukuthi umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uyehluka kakhulu futhi uvumela umuntu ukuthi awubone ngamazwi. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ngezinsuku zokugcina ujwayelekile futhi uyiqiniso, ngakho iqembu labantu bezinsuku zokugcina lifakwa ezivivinyweni ezinzima kunazo zonke. Ngenxa yokujwayeleka kanye nokuba wuqobo kukaNkulunkulu, bonke abantu sebengene ekuvivinyweni okunjalo; ukuthi umuntu usehlele ezivivinyweni nguNkulunkulu kungenxa yokujwayeleka neqiniso likaNkulunkulu. Ngesikhathi sikaJesu, kwakungekho micabango kanye nezivivinyo. Ngoba umsebenzi omningi owenziwa uJesu wenziwa ngokuhambisana nemicabango yomuntu, abantu bamlandela, futhi babengenayo imicabango ngaye. Izivivinyo zanamhlanje ngezinzima kakhulu ukudlula zonke umuntu ake abhekana nazo, futhi uma kuthiwa labantu baphume osizini olukhulu, yilolu sizi okukhulunywa ngalo. Namhlanje, uNkulunkulu ukhuluma ukwakha ukukholwa, uthando, ukubekezela kanye nokulalela kulaba bantu. Amazwi akhulunywe nguNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu ezinsukwini zokugcina ahambisana nengqikithi yemvelo yomuntu, ahambisana nokuziphatha komuntu, futhi ahambisana nalokho umuntu okufanele angene kukho namhlanje. Amazwi Akhe awangempela futhi ajwayelekile: Akakhulumi ngekusasa, futhi akabheki kokwayizolo; Ukhuluma kuphela ngalokho okufanele kungenwe kukho, kwenziwe, futhi kuqondwe namhlanje. Uma, njengamanje, kungavela umuntu okwazi ukwenza izimpawu nezimangaliso, akhiphe amadimoni, asindise abagulayo, futhi enze izimangaliso eziningi, futhi uma lo muntu ethi unguJesu obuyile, ngabe lokhu kuyinkohliso yemimoya emibi, kanye nokulingisa kwakhe uJesu. Khumbula lokhu! UNkulunkulu akawuphindi umsebenzi owodwa. Isigaba sikaJesu somsebenzi sesivele siqediwe, futhi uNkulunkulu ngeke abuye enze lesi sigaba somsebenzi. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ngeke uhambisane nemicabango yabantu; njengesibonelo, iTestamente Elidala labikezela ngokuza kukaMesiya, kodwa kwenzeka ukuthi uJesu afike, ngakho kungaba yiphutha ukuthi omunye uMesiya afike futhi. UJesu usefikile kanye, futhi kungaba yiphutha uma uJesu ubengeza futhi manje. Kunegama elilodwa enkathini ngayinye, futhi igama ngalinye lifuza inkathi. Emicabangweni yomuntu, uNkulunkulu kufanele njalo enze izimpawu nezimangaliso, kufanele njalo asindise abagulayo futhi akhiphe amadimoni, futhi kufanele njalo abenjengoJesu, kepha manje uNkulunkulu akanjalo neze. Uma, ngezinsuku zokugcina, uNkulunkulu wayesenza izimpawu nezimangaliso, futhi esakhipha amadimoni futhi asindise abagulayo—ukuba ubenza njengoJesu uqobo—uNkulunkulu ubengabe uphinda umsebenzi ofanayo, futhi umsebenzi kaJesu ubungeke ube nokubaluleka nosizo. Ngakho uNkulunkulu wenza isigaba esisodwa somsebenzi kuzo zonke izinkathi. Uma isigaba somsebenzi wakhe sesiphelile, silingiswa yimimoya emibi ngokushesha emuva kwalokho, futhi emuva kokuthi uSathane eqalise ukulandela uNkulunkulu eduzane, uNkulunkulu uguqukela endleleni ehlukile. Uma uNkulunkulu eseqede isigaba somsebenzi wakhe, ulingiswa imimoya emibi. Kufanele nicacelwe yilokhu. Kungani umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu namhlanje uhlukile kunomsebenzi kaJesu? Kungani uNkulunkulu engenzi izimpawu nezimangaliso, engakhiphi amadimoni, futhi engasindisi abagulayo? Uma umsebenzi kaJesu wawufana nalowo owenziwa ngeNkathi Yomthetho, wayengammela uNkulunkulu weNkathi Yomusa? Wayengakwazi ukufeza umsebenzi wokubethelwa? Uma, njengaseNkathini Yomthetho, uJesu wayengene ethempelini futhi wagcina iSabatha, wayengeke ahlushwe unoma ubani futhi wayeyokwamukelwa yibo bonke. Uma lokho kwakunjalo, wayengabethelwa? Wayengawuqedela umsebenzi wokuhlenga? Kwakungaba nalusizo luni ukuthi uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu ezinsukwini zokugcina enze izimpawu nezimangaliso, njengoJesu? Kungesikhathi kuphela uNkulunkulu enza enye ingxenye yomsebenzi Wakhe ngezinsuku zokugcina, leyo emele ingxenye yohlelo lwakhe lokuphatha, lapho umuntu engazuza ulwazi olujule kakhulu ngoNkulunkulu, futhi kungaleso sikhathi kuphela lapho uhlelo lukaNkulunkulu lokuphatha luyofezeka khona.

296. Ezinsukwini zokugcina, uNkulunkulu ikakhulu usebenzisa izwi ukuphelelisa umuntu. Akasebenzisi izimpawu nezimangaliso ukucindezela abantu, noma ukubathonya; lokhu ngeke kucacise amandla kaNkulunkulu. Uma uNkulunkulu ekhombisa izizimpawu nezimangaliso kuphela, kusho ukuthi kuzoba nzima ukucacisa iqiniso likaNkulunkulu, ngakho-ke kube nzima ukuphelelisa umuntu. UNkulunkulu akamphelelisi ngezimpawu nangezimangaliso umuntu, kodwa usebenzisa izwi ukunisela nokwelusa umuntu, ngemva kwalokho abantu bakwazi ukulalela nokwazi uNkulunkulu. Lena yinhloso yomsebenzi awenzayo namazwi awakhulumayo. UNkulunkulu akasebenzisi indlela yokukhombisa izimpawu nezimangaliso ukuphelelisa umuntu—usebenzisa amazwi, futhi usebenzisa izindlela eziningi ezehlukene zokusebenza ukuphelelisa umuntu. Noma ngabe ukucwengwa, ukusebenzelana, ukuthenwa, noma ukunikezwa amazwi, uNkulunkulu ukhuluma ngezindlela eziningi ukuze aphelelise umuntu, futhi anike umuntu ulwazi olukhulu ngomsebenzi, ubuhlakani nokumangalisa kukaNkulunkulu. Uma umuntu epheleliswa ngesikhathi uNkulunkulu azoqeda ngaso leyo nkathi ezinsukwini zokugcina, khona-ke uzofanela ukubona izimpawu nezimangaliso. Lapho ufinyelela ekwazini uNkulunkulu futhi usukwazi ukulalela uNkulunkulu kungakhathaleki ukuthi wenzani, ngeke ube nemibono Ngaye lapho ubona izimpawu nezimangaliso. Okwamanje, ukhohlakele futhi awukwazi ukuthobela uNkulunkulu ngokuphelele—ingabe ufanelekile ukubona izimpawu nezimangaliso? Isikhathi uNkulunkulu azobonisa ngaso izimpawu nezimangaliso kulapho uNkulunkulu esola khona umuntu, uma kuguquka inkathi, futhi, phezu kwalokho, uma kuphela inkathi. Uma umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu wenziwa ngokujwayelekile, akavezi izimpawu nezimangaliso. Ukuveza izimpawu nezimangaliso kulula kakhulu, kodwa lowo akuwona umgomo womsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, futhi akuyona inhloso yohlelo lukaNkulunkulu lokuphatha umuntu. Ukuba umuntu wabona izimpawu nezimangaliso, futhi uma umzimba kamoya kaNkulunkulu ubungabonakala kubantu, ingabe bonke abantu bebengeke bakholwe kuNkulunkulu? Ngike ngasho phambilini ukuthi iqembu labanqobi lizuzwe eMpumalanga, abanqobi abaphuma ekuhluphekeni okukhulu. Asho ukuthini lawa mazwi? Asho ukuthi laba bantu abazuziwe bahlonipha ngeqiniso ngemva kokwahlulelwa nokusolwa, ukusetshenzwa nokuthenwa, nazo zonke izinhlobo zokucwenga. Ukukholwa kwabantu abanjalo akufiphele futhi akukhona okucatshangwayo nje, kodwa kuyiqiniso. Ababonanga zimpawu nezimangaliso, noma naziphi izimanga; abakhulumi ngamagama nezimfundiso ezinzima, noma ngemibono ejulile; kunalokho baneqiniso, namazwi kaNkulunkulu, nolwazi lweqiniso likaNkulunkulu. Ingabe iqembu elinjengaleli akufanele liwenze acace amandla kaNkulunkulu? Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu wezinsuku zokugcina ngumsebenzi wangempela. Ngenkathi kaJesu, wayengezanga ukuzophelelisa umuntu, kodwa ukuzomhlenga, ngakho-ke waveza ezinye izimanga ukuze abantu bamlandele. Ngoba wayezele ukuzoqedela umsebenzi wokubethelwa, ukuveza izimpawu kwakungeyona ingxenye yomsebenzi wenkonzo Yakhe. Izimpawu nezimangaliso kwakungumsebenzi owenziwa ukuze umsebenzi Wakhe uphumelele; kwakuwumsebenzi ongaphezulu, wawungamele umsebenzi wenkathi yonke. Ngesikhathi seNkathi Yomthetho yeTestamente Elidala, uNkulunkulu waphinde waveza ezinye izimpawu nezimangaliso—kodwa umsebenzi uNkulunkulu awenza namuhla ngumsebenzi wangempela, futhi ngeke aveze izimpawu nezimangaliso manje. Uma engaveza izimpawu nezimangaliso, umsebenzi Wakhe wangempela ungaxoveka, angabe esakwazi ukwenza omunye umsebenzi. Uma uNkulunkulu wayethe izwi alisetshenziselwe ukuphelelisa umuntu, kodwa wabuye wakhombisa izimpawu nezimangaliso, ngabe ukuthi abantu bayakholwa noma abakholwa Kuye kwakungacaciswa? Ngalokho, uNkulunkulu akazenzi izinto ezinjalo. Abantu bagcwele inkolo; uNkulunkulu ufikile ezinsukwini zokugcina ukuzochitha imibono yenkolo nezinto ezingaphezu kwemvelo kumuntu, enze abantu bazi uqobo lukaNkulunkulu. Uzele ukuzosusa isithombe sikaNkulunkulu esisengqondweni nesingamanga—isithombe sikaNkulunkulu, ngamanye amazwi, ongekho nhlobo. Ngakho-ke, manje into eyigugu ukuthi ube nolwazi lweqiniso! Iqiniso ledlula konke okunye. Uneqiniso elingakanani namuhla? Ingabe konke lokho kuveza uNkulunkulu wezimpawu nezimangaliso? Imimoya emibi nayo ingaveza izimpawu nezimangaliso; ingabe yonke inguNkulunkulu? Ekukholweni kwakhe kuNkulunkulu, into efunwa umuntu yiqiniso, lokho akufunayo ukuphila, kunezimpawu nezimangaliso. Lokhu kumele kube yinhloso yabo bonke abakholwa kuNkulunkulu.

297. Umsebenzi kaJehova kwakuwukudala umhlaba, wawuyisiqalo; lesi sigaba somsebenzi siyisiphetho salo msebenzi futhi yiso esiwuphothulayo. Ekuqaleni, umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu wawenziwa abakhethiweyo bakwa-Israyeli futhi wawuyisiqalo senkathi entsha sendawo engcwele kunazo zonke. Isigaba sokugcina somsebenzi senziwa ezweni elingcole kunawo wonke ukuze kwahlulelwe umhlaba futhi ukuze kuqedwe inkathi. Esigabeni sokuqala, umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu wawenziwa endaweni ekhanya kunazo zonke izindawo futhi isigaba sokugcina senziwa endaweni emnyama kunazo zonke, futhi lobu bumnyama buzoqedwa, kulethwe ukukhanya bese kunqotshwa bonke abantu. Lapho abantu abakulezi zindawo ezingcolile futhi ezimnyama kunazo zonke sebenqotshiwe, futhi bonke abantu sebebona ukuthi ukhona uNkulunkulu weqiniso, futhi wonke umuntu eseqiniseka ngokugcwele, lokhu kuyosho ukuthi leli qiniso liyosetshenziselwa ukwenza umsebenzi wokunqoba indawo yonke. Lesi sigaba somsebenzi siwuphawu: lapho kuqedwa lo msebenzi okulesi sigaba, umsebenzi weminyaka eyizi-6 000 wokuphatha uzofika ekugcineni okuphelele. Lapho labo abasebumnyameni obukhulu sebenqotshiwe, akubuzwa ukuthi kuyobe kunjalo kuyo yonke indawo. Njengoba kunje, ngumsebenzi wokunqoba eChina kuphela ophethe uphawu olunomqondo. IChina iveza wonke amandla obumnyama futhi abantu bakhona bamele bonke labo abangabenyama, abakaSathane, abenyama negazi. Ngabantu baseChina abakhohlakaliswe kakhulu ngudrako omkhulu obomvu, obe ngumphikisi omkhulu kaNkulunkulu, obuntu bakhe bubi futhi bungcole kakhulu, futhi ngakho bawumfuziselo omkhulu waso sonke isintu esikhohlakele. Lokhu akusho ukuthi amanye amazwe awanazo nhlobo izinkinga; imicabango yabantu iyefana yonke, futhi nakuba abantu bala mazwe bengaba ngabezinga elihle, uma bengamazi uNkulunkulu, ngakho kungase kube bayamphikisa. Kungani wonke amaJuda amphikisa futhi amdelela uNkulunkulu? Kungani abaFarisi nabo bamphikisa? Kungani uJuda akhaphela uJesu? Ngaleso sikhathi, iningi labafundi lalingamazi uJesu. Kungani, emva kokuba uJesu ebethelwe wabuye wavuka, abantu bengakholwanga Kuye? Ngabe ukungalaleli komuntu akufani konke? Ukuthi nje abantu baseChina kwenziwa ngabo isibonelo, futhi lapho benqotshwa bazoba yimifuziselo nezibonelo, futhi bazosebenza njengokuzobhekiswa kukho ngabanye. Kungani bengilokhu ngithi nilusizo ohlelweni Lwami lokuphatha? Kusebantwini baseChina lapho inkohlakalo, ukungcola, ukungalungi, ukuphikisa nokuhlubuka kubonakala khona ngokuphelele futhi kwembulwa kuzo zonke izinhlobo zakho. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, bangabezinga eliphansi, futhi ngakolunye, ukuphila kwabo, ukucabanga kwabo kusemuva, futhi ukuziphatha kwabo, izimo zenhlalo, imindeni abazalwa kuyo—konke kuphansi futhi kusemuva. Isimo sabo, naso siphansi. Umsebenzi kule ndawo uyafanekisa, futhi ngemva kwalokhu kuhlola, umsebenzi wenziwe ngokuphelele, umsebenzi Wakhe olandelayo uzohamba kangcono kakhulu. Uma lesi sinyathelo somsebenzi singaqedwa, nomsebenzi olandelayo uzophela nakanjani. Uma lesi sigaba somsebenzi sesifeziwe, impumelelo enkulu iyobe isitholakele, futhi umsebenzi wokunqoba kuyo yonke indawo uyobe usufezwe ngokuphelele.

298. Yonke imisebenzi kaNkulunkulu emhlabeni wonke jikelele igxile kuleli qembu labantu. Unikele wonke amandla Akhe kini wakudela konke ngenxa yenu; uphinde wabuyisa yonke imisebenzi kaMoya emhlabeni wonke wayinikeza nina. Kungakho ngithi, ninenhlanhla. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ususe inkazimulo Yakhe ku-Israyeli, abantu Bakhe abakhethile, wayiletha kini, ukuze afeze inhloso yohlelo Lwakhe ngokugcwele ngani qembu labantu. Ngakho-ke, niyilabo abazothola ifa likaNkulunkulu, futhi ngaphezulu niyizindlalifa zenkazimulo kaNkulunkulu. Mhlawumbe niyawakhumbula nonke la mazwi: “Ngokuba usizi lwethu olulula, olungolwesikhashana, lusisebenzela isilinganiso esiphezulu kakhulu senkazimulo yaphakade.” Esikhathini esedlule, nisizwile nonke lesi sisho, kodwa akekho owayiqonda incazelo eyiqiniso yala mazwi. Namhlanje, nazi kahle ukubaluleka kwalokhu akushoyo. Lawa mazwi ayilokhu uNkulunkulu azokufeza ngezinsuku zokugcina. Futhi azogcwaliseka kulabo abahlushwe ngonya ngukadrako omkhulu obomvu kulelo zwe lapho ekhona. Udrako omkhulu obomvu uhlupha uNkulunkulu futhi uyisitha sikaNkulunkulu, ngakho kuleli zwe, labo abakholwa kuNkulunkulu bazithola behlazeka futhi behlushwa. Kungakho la mazwi ezoba yiqiniso kini qembu labantu. Njengoba umsebenzi wenziwa ezweni eliphikisa uNkulunkulu, wonke umsebenzi Wakhe uhlangabezane nokuvinjelwa okukhulu futhi amazwi Akhe amaningi awakwazi ukugcwaliseka ngesikhathi esifanele; ngakho abantu balungisiwe ngenxa yamazwi kaNkulunkulu. Lokhu futhi kuyingxenye yokuhlupheka. Kunzima kakhulu kuNkulunkulu ukwenza umsebenzi Wakhe ezweni likadrako omkhulu obomvu, kodwa kungenxa yobunzima obunjalo lapho uNkulunkulu enza izigaba zomsebenzi Wakhe ziveze ubuhlakani Bakhe nemisebenzi emangalisayo. UNkulunkulu uthatha leli thuba ukuphelelisa leli qembu labantu. Ngenxa yokuhlupheka kwabantu, izinga labo, nesimo sabantu esinobusathane kulo mhlaba ongahlanzekile, uNkulunkulu wenza umsebenzi Wakhe wokuhlanza nokunqoba ukuze kulokhu azuze inkazimulo azuze nalabo abafakaza ngezenzo Zakhe. Lokhu kungukubaluleka kwakho konke ukuzidela kukaNkulunkulu ngenxa yaleli qembu labantu. Okusho ukuthi, uNkulunkulu wenza umsebenzi wokunqoba ngalabo abamphikisayo. Ukwenza kanjena kuphela okugqamisa amandla amakhulu kaNkulunkulu. Ngamanye amazwi, yilabo abasezweni elingcolile kuphela abafanele ukuthola ifa lenkazimulo kaNkulunkulu, yilokhu kuphela okunganikeza ukugqama kwamandla amakhulu kaNkulunkulu. Yingakho ngithi inkazimulo kaNkulunkulu itholwa ezweni elingcolile nakulabo abahlala kulona. Le yintando kaNkulunkulu. Lokhu kufana nje nasesigabeni somsebenzi kaJesu; wayengakhazimuliswa kuphela phakathi kwalabo baFarisi ababemhlupha. Uma kwakungekhona ukuhlushwa nokukhashelwa nguJudasi, uJesu wayengasoze abe yinhlekisa noma athukwe, ngisho nokubethelwa imbala, futhi ngabe akazange athole inkazimulo. Lapho uNkulunkulu asebenza khona esikhathini ngasinye nalapho enza khona umsebenzi Wakhe wenyama, uthola udumo khona lapho azuze labo ahlose ukubazuza. Lolu uhlelo lomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, futhi lokhu ukuphatha Kwakhe.

299. Ohlelweni lukaNkulunkulu lweminyaka eyizinkulungwane ezimbalwa, umsebenzi owenziwe enyameni unezingxenye ezimbili: Ingxenye yokuqala ngumsebenzi wokubethelwa, lapho ayidunyiselwayo; enye ngumsebenzi wokunqoba nowokupheleliswa ezinsukwini zokugcina, azothola ngawo inkazimulo. Lokhu ukuphatha kukaNkulunkulu. Ngakho, ungawuthathi ngokuthi ulula kakhulu umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu noma ukuthunywa kwakho nguNkulunkulu. Nonke niyizindlalifa zenkazimulo yaphakade kaNkulunkulu enesisindo esikhulu kakhulu, lokhu kwagcotshwa nguNkulunkulu ngokukhethekile. Kulezi zingxenye ezimbili zenkazimulo Yakhe, enye yambuliwe kini, ukuphelela kwenye ingxenye yenkazimulo kaNkulunkulu kunikezwe nina ukuze kube yifa lenu. Lokhu ukuphakanyiswa okuvela kuNkulunkulu nohlelo Lwakhe olwahlelwa kudala. Ukubona ubukhulu bomsebenzi owenziwe nguNkulunkulu ezweni lapho udrako omkhulu obomvu ahlala khona, lowo msebenzi uma uyiswa kwenye indawo, ngabe kade wathela izithelo ezinkulu futhi ngabe wamukelwe kalula ngabantu. Umsebenzi onjalo ubungaba lula kakhulu kulabo befundisi baseNtshonalanga abakholwa kuNkulunkulu, ngoba isigaba somsebenzi kaJesu sisebenza njengesandulelo. Yingakho engakwazi ukuzuza lesi sigaba somsebenzi wokudunyiswa kwenye indawo; okusho ukuthi lapho kunokusekwa okuvela kubo bonke abantu nokubonga okuvela kuzo zonke izizwe, ayikho indawo inkazimulo kaNkulunkulu engaphumula kuyo. Futhi lokhu kuwukubaluleka okungavamile impela lesi isigaba somsebenzi esinakho kuleli zwe. Phakathi kwenu, akukho namunye umuntu othola ukuvikelwa komthetho; kodwa niyajeziswa ngumthetho, kanti ubunzima obukhulu ukuthi akekho umuntu oniqondayo, kungaba yizihlobo zenu, abazali benu abangane benu noma ozakwenu emsebenzini. Akekho oniqondayo. Uma uNkulunkulu ekulahla, ayikho indlela ongaqhubeka uphile ngayo emhlabeni. Kodwa-ke, noma kunjalo abantu angeke bakwazi ukushiya uNkulunkulu; lokhu ukubaluleka kokunqotshelwa kwabantu nguNkulunkuku, kanti lokhu kuyinkazimulo kaNkulunkulu. Lokho okuthole njengefa namuhla kwedlula okwabapostoli nabaphrofethi bakudala bonke futhi kukhulu kunalokho okukaMose noPetru. Izibusiso azisoze zitholwe ngelanga noma amabili, kufanele zizuzwe ngokuzidela okukhulu. Okusho ukuthi ufanele ube nothando oluhlanzekile, ukholo olukhulu, namaqiniso amaningi lawo uNkulunkulu akucela ukuba ube nawo; phezu kwalokho, ufanele ukuba ubhekise ubuso bakho kubulungisa ungaze uzigogobeze noma uzibeke phansi, futhi ufanele ukuba nothando olungaguquki futhi olunganciphi kuNkulunkulu. Kudingeka wenze isinqumo, njengoba kunoguquko esimweni sempilo yakho; inkohlakalo yakho kufanele yelashwe, kufanele wamukele konke ukuhlela kuNkulunkulu ngaphandle kokukhononda, futhi ulalele kuze kube sekufeni. Yilokhu okufanele ukuzuze. Lokhu yinhloso yokugcina yomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, nokudingwa uNkulunkulu kuleli qembu labantu. Njengoba ekunikeza, Naye ke kufanele acele kuwe ukuze akunike lokhu okudingayo nawe. Ngakho-ke, yonke imisebenzi kaNkulunkulu inezizathu, futhi kulokhu kuyabonakala ukuthi kungani uNkulunkulu njalo enza umsebenzi osezingeni eliphakeme nonezidingo eziqinile. Yingakho kufanele ugcwaliswe ngokholo kuNkulunkulu. Ngamafuphi, wonke umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu wenziwe ngenxa yakho ukuze ufanele ukuthola ifa Lakhe. Lokhu akukona kangako ukuthi uNkulunkulu athole inkazimulo kodwa kungenxa yosindiso lwakho nokuphelelisa leli qembu labantu abahlupheke kakhulu ezweni elingahlanzekile. Kufanele uqonde intando kaNkulunkulu. Ngakho ngishumayeza abaningi abantu abangenalwazi abangenambono noma umqondo: Ungalingi uNkulunkulu futhi unganqabi. uNkulunkulu usekumele konke ukuhlupheka lokho umuntu angakadluli kukona, kanti kudala wahlushwa kakhulu endaweni yomuntu. Yini enye ongeke uhlukane nayo? Yini engabaluleka kakhulu ukwedlula intando kaNkulunkulu? Yini engadlula uthando lukaNkulunkulu? Kuwumsebenzi ongumshikashika ophindiwe kaNkulunkulu ukuba awenze kule lizwe elingahlanzekile. Uma umuntu ona, azi futhi ehlosile, umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uzofanela ukwelulwa. Vele, lokhu akubi ukuzuza komunye, futhi akuhlomuli muntu. UNkulunkulu akavinjelwa yisikhathi; umsebenzi Wakhe nenkazimulo Yakhe ziza kuqala. Ngakho-ke, noma ngabe kuthatha isikhathi eside kangakanani, angeke ashiye noma ngabe yikuphi ukuzidela uma ngabe kungumsebenzi Wakhe. Lesi yisimo sikaNkulunkulu: Angeke aphumule kuze kufezwe umsebenzi Wakhe. Uma isikhathi sifika kulapho ethola ingxenye yesibili yenkazimulo Yakhe ukuze umsebenzi Wakhe ucishe ufezwe. Uma uNkulunkulu engeqede umsebenzi Wakhe wengxenye yesibili yenkazimulo Yakhe, usuku Lwakhe ngeke lufike, isandla Sakhe angeke sisuke kulabo abakhethile, inkazimulo Yakhe ayisoze yafika ku-Israyeli, kanti uhlelo Lwakhe angeke lwafezwa. Ufanele ukubona intando kaNkulunkulu futhi ubone ukuthi umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu awulula njengokudalwa kwezulu nomhlaba nazo zonke izinto. Umsebenzi wanamuhla ukuguqula labo abonakalisiwe, abandikindiki ngokwedlulele, ukuhlanza labo abadaliwe kodwa bathathwa nguSathane. Akuwona owokudala u-Adamu noma u-Eva, hhayi nokwenza ukukhanya noma ukudala zonke izinhlobo zezithombo nezilwane. Umsebenzi Wakhe manje ukuhlanza bonke labo abonakalisiwe nguSathane ukuze bazuzwe kabusha babe ngabantu Bakhe babe inkazimulo Yakhe. Umsebenzi onjalo awulula njengoba umuntu ecabanga ngokudalwa kwezulu nomhlaba nezinto zonke ezikhona, futhi akufani nomsebenzi wokuqalekisela uSathane emgodini ongenamkhawulo njengoba umuntu ecabanga. Kodwa, ukuguqula umuntu, ukuguqula lokho okungekuhle kube okuhle nokuthatha lokho okungekona okwakhe kube okwakhe. Le indaba yangaphakathi yaleli banga lomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu. Ufanele uyazi, futhi ungenzi lula kakhulu izinto. Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu awufani nanoma yiwuphi umsebenzi ojwayelekile. Ubukhulu bawo abuqondakali emqondweni womuntu, kanti ubuhlakani bawo angeke baziwe wumuntu. Kulesi sigaba somsebenzi Wakhe, uNkulunkulu akadali zonke izinto kanti futhi akazibhidlizi. Kodwa, uguqula yonke indalo Yakhe ahlanze zonke izinto ezoniwe uSathane. Ngakho-ke uNkulunkulu uzoqala umsebenzi omkhulu kanti lokhu kuwukubaluleka komsebenzi kaNkulunkulu.

300. UNkulunkulu usebenzisa ukuphatha Kwakhe abantu ukunqoba uSathane. Ngokukhohlakalisa abantu, uSathane wenza abantu bafune ukuqeda nokuhlukumeza umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu. Kolunye uhlangothi umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ukusindisa isintu. Yisiphi isinyathelo emsebenzini kaNkulunkulu esingadalelwe ukusindisa isintuntu? Yisiphi isinyathelo esingahloselwe ukuhlambulula abantu, ukubenza benze izinto ezilungile baphile ngendlela eyenza isithombe esingathandeka? USathane, kodwa, akakwenzi lokhu. Ukhohlakalisa isintu; uyaqhubeka nokwenza umsebenzi wakhe wokukhohlakalisa isintu emhlabeni jikelele. Yebo, noNkulunkulu wenza umsebenzi Wakhe. Akamnakile uSathane. Noma angaba negunya elingakanani uSathane, igunya walinikwa uNkulunkulu; uNkulunkulu akazange amnike lonke igunya Lakhe, ngakho-ke noma ngabe wenzani, angeke kumedlule uNkulunkulu futhi uhlale esesandleni sikaNkulunkulu. UNkulunkulu akazange aziveze izenzo Zakhe esasezulwini. Wanika nje uSathane ingxenyana yegunya Lakhe ukuze akwazi ukulawula izingelosi. Ngakho-ke, noma ngabe wenzani, angeke kuledlule igunya likaNkulunkulu, ngoba igunya uNkulunkulu alinika yena ekuqaleni lincane. Uma uNkulunkulu esebenza, uSathane uyahlupha. Ezinsukwini zokugcina, kuzophela ukuhlupha kwakhe; kanjalo nomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uzophela. UNkulunkulu wenza abantu benze izinto ezinhle; impilo Yakhe amanzi okuphila, ingelinganiswe futhi ayinamkhawulo. USathane usekhohlakalise kakhulu abantu; ekugcineni, amanzi okuphila azomphelelisa umuntu, ngalokho kuzoba nzima ukuthi uSathane agxambukele futhi enze umsebenzi wakhe. Ngalokho, uNkulunkulu uzobazuza ngokuphelele laba bantu. USathane akafuni ukukwamukela lokhu manje; uyaqhubeka nokumbela uNkulunkulu, kodwa uNkulunkulu akamnakile. Wathi, ngizonqoba wonke amandla obumnyama kaSathane nayo yonke imimoya emibi. Lona umsebenzi okumele wenziwe enyameni, futhi kusho ukuthi kumele uNkulunkulu abe sesimweni somuntu. Ukuze ezoqedela isigaba somsebenzi wokunqoba uSathane ezinsukwini zokugcina, ukubhubhisa konke okungokukaSathane. Ukunqoba kukaNkulunkulu enqoba uSathane yinto engeke ibalekelwe! USathane wahluleka kudala. Ngenkathi ivangeli liqala ukusabalala ezweni likadrako omkhulu obomvu, lokhu, ingenkathi uNkulunkulu esesimweni somuntu eqala ukusebenza lo msebenzi waqalwa, uSathane wanqontshwa ngokuphelele, ngoba uNkulunkulu esesimweni somuntu kwakumele anqobe uSathane. USathane wabona ukuthi uNkulunkulu usephinde waba yinyama waqala futhi ukwenza umsebenzi Wakhe, wabona ukuthi akunamandla angavimba umsebenzi. Ngalokho-ke, washaqeka uma ebona lo msebenzi wangasalingi ukwenza omunye umsebenzi. Ekuqaleni uSathane wacabanga ukuthi naye uhlakaniphile, waphazamisa wahlukumeza umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu; kodwa-ke, wayengalindele ukuthi uNkulunkulu usephinde waba inyama, nokuthi emsebenzini Wakhe, uNkulunkulu wayesebenzise ukuhlubuka kwakhe ukuletha isambulo nokwahlulelaesintwini, ngalokhu wanqoba isintu wanqoba naye. UNkulunkulu unokuhlakanipha okungaphezu kwakhe, futhi umsebenzi Wakhe mkhulu kunowakhe. Ngakho-ke, nasekuqaleni ngikushilo lokhu: Umsebenzi engiwenzayo ngiwenza ngokuphendula amaqhinga kaSathane. Ekugcineni ngizokwembula ukuba usomandla Kwami nokungabinamandla kukaSathane. Uma uNkulunkulu enza umsebenzi Wakhe, uSathane umlandela ngemuva, kuze kube ukuthi ekugcineni uyabhujiswa – angeke azi nokuthi kwenzekeni! Iqiniso uzolibona kuphela uma eseshayiwe wanyathelwa; ngaleso sikhathi uzobe esevutha echibini lomlilo. Uzobe engakakholwa nangaleso sikhathi? Ngoba uzobe engasenawo amaqhinga azowenza!

301. Esizweni sikadrako omkhulu obomvu, sengenze isigaba somsebenzi esingaqondwa abantu ngibenze bantenge emoyeni, emva kwalokho abaningi bayaphephuka buthule nokuvunguza komoya. Ngempela lesi “yisibuya” esengiseduze ukusiqeda; yilokhu engikulangezelelayo futhi kuwuhlelo Lwami. Ngokuba baningi abangalungile abanyonyobe bangena ngesikhathi ngisebenza, kodwa angijahile ukubaxosha. Kunalokho, ngizobachitha uma isikhathi sesifanele. Kuyoba ngemva kwalokho-ke kuphela lapho ngizoba khona umthombo wempilo, ngivumele labo abangithanda ngeqiniso ukuba bazuze Kimi izithelo zesihlahla somkhiwane kanye nephunga lomnduze. Emhlabeni lapho uSathane ehlala khona okwesikhashana, umhlaba wothuli, akunagolide elicwebile, kunesihlabathi sodwa, ngakho, ngibhekene nalokhu, ngenza umsebenzi wesigaba esinje. Kumele wazi ukuthi engikuzuzayo yigolide elicwebile, elicocekile, hhayi isihlabathi. Bangahlala kanjani abakhohlakele endlini Yami? Ngingazivumela kanjani izimpungushe ukuthi zibe yizimbungulu epharadesi Lami? Ngenza konke okusemandleni Ami ukuthi ngizixoshe lezi zinto. Ngaphambi kokuthi intando Yami ibonakaliswe, abekho abaziyo ukuthi yini esengizoyenza. Ngithatha leli thuba, ngixosha labo abakhohlakele, bese bephoqeka ukuthi basuke ebukhoneni Bami. Yilokhu engikwenzayo kwabakhohlakele, kodwa lusekhona usuku lokuthi bangisebenzele. Ukufisa kwabantu izibusiso kunamandla kakhulu; ngakho-ke ngijikisa umzimba Wami ngikhombise abezizwe ubuso Bami obukhazimulayo, ukuze bonke abantu baphile emhlabeni wabo bazihlulele bona, ngenkathi ngisho amazwi okumele ngiwasho futhi nginikeza abantu lokhu abakudingayo. Uma abantu bebuyelwa yimiqondo yabo, ngizobe sengiwusabalalisile kudala umsebenzi Wami. Ngizobe sengitshela abantu okuyintando Yami, bese ngiqala ingxenye yesibili yomsebenzi Wami kubantu, ngivumele bonke abantu bangilandele eduzane ukuze bezosebenzisana nomsebenzi Wami, ngiphinde ngivumele bonke abantu benze konke okusemandleni abo ukwenza kanye nami umsebenzi okumele ngiwenze.

302. Ohlelweni Lwami, uSathane akakaze wachoboza izithende zesigaba ngasinye futhi ekummiseni ngokobuhlakani Bami, ubelokhu ezama ukuthola izindlela zokuphazamisa uhlelo Lwami lokuqala. Kodwa bengingavumela amaqhinga akhe alahlekisayo? Konke okusezulwini nokusemhlabeni kukhonza Mina—ingabe amaqhinga kaSathane alahlekisayo bengahluka? Yilokhu impela okuyimpambano yobuhlakani Bami, yikho kanye okumangalisayo ngezenzo Zami futhi wumgomo engenza ngawo zonke izinhlelo Zami zokuphatha. Ngenkathi yokwakhiwa kombuso, nalapho bengingabalekeli amaqhinga kaSathane alahlekisayo kodwa Ngiqhubeke nomsebenzi obekumele Ngiwenze. Phakathi komhlaba jikelele nazo zonke izinto, ngikhethe umsebenzi kaSathane njengalokho Engizokumisa. Akusibo ubuhlakani Bami lokhu? Akukhona okumangalisa ngempela ngomsebenzi Wami? Ngosuku lokungena eNkathini Yombuso, kwenzeka ushintsho olukhulu kakhulu kuzo zonke izinto ezisezulwini nasemhlabeni, futhi bayabungaza bathokoze. Ingabe wena wehlukile? Ngubani ongabuzwa ubumnandi obufana noju esifubeni sakhe? Ngubani ongathokozi enhliziyweni yakhe? Ngubani ongadansi ngentokozo? Ngubani ongawakhulumi amazwi endumiso?

303. Lapho bonke abantu sebephelelisiwe nazo zonke izizwe zomhlaba seziwumbuso kaKristu, kuyobe sekuyisikhathi-ke sokuduma kwamazulu ayisikhombisa. Usuku lwanamuhla luyigxathu eliya phambili endleleni eya kuleso sigaba, ukuhlasela sekudedelwe esikhathini esizayo. Lolu wuhlelo lukaNkulunkulu—esikhathini esiseduze luyofezeka. Kodwa, uNkulunkulu usekufezile konke akusho. Kanjalo, kusobala ukuthi izizwe zomhlaba ziyizinqaba nje ezisehlabathini eziqhaqhazelayo ngenkathi kusondela umsinga ophakeme. Usuku lokugcina luyasondela nodrako omkhulu obomvu uyoketuka awe ngaphansi kwezwi likaNkulunkulu. Ukuqinisekisa ukuthi uhlelo lukaNkulunkulu lwenzeka ngempumelelo, izingelosi zezulu sezehlele emhlabeni, zenza konke ezingakwenza ukwanelisa uNkulunkulu. UNkulunkulu ngokwakhe osesimweni somuntu usenikele enkundleni yempi ukuhlasela isitha. Noma yikuphi lapho kuvela khona ukuba sesimweni somuntu, isitha siyabulawa kuleyo ndawo. IChina ngeyokuqala ukushabalaliswa, ibhidlizwa yisandla sikaNkulunkulu. UNkulunkulu akayiniki thuba iChina. Ubufakazi bokuqhubeka kokuwa kukadrako omkhulu obomvu bubonakala ekuqhubekeni kokuvuthwa kwabantu. Lokhu ngokusobala kubonwa yinoma ngubani. Ukuvuthwa kwabantu kuwuphawu lokushabalala kwesitha. Lokhu kuyincazelo encanyana yalokhu okuqondiwe “ngokwenza impi.”

304. Ngiyabusa embusweni, futhi, ngaphezu kwalokho ngibusa emhlabeni wonke jikelele; ngiyiNkosi yoMbuso neNhloko yomhlaba jikelele. Ukusukela manje kuyaphambili, ngizohlanganisa bonke labo abangebona abakhethiweyo bese ngiqala umsebenzi Wami kwabeZizwe, futhi ngizomemezela imithetho Yami yokuphatha emhlabeni jikelele, ukuze ngifinyelele ngempumelelo esinyathelweni esilandelayo somsebenzi Wami. Ngizosebenzisa isijeziso ukusabalalisa umsebenzi Wami phakathi kwabeZizwe, okusho ukuthi, ngizosebenzisa indluzula kubo bonke labo abangabeZizwe. Ngokusobala, lo msebenzi uzokwenziwa ngesikhathi esisodwa nomsebenzi Wami kulabo abakhethiweyo. Ngenkathi abantu Bami bebusa besebenzisa amandla emhlabeni kuzoba nawusuku lapho bonke abantu emhlabeni bezokunqotshwa, futhi, ngaphezu kwalokho kuzoba yisikhathi lapho ngizophumula khona—kulapho kuphela lapho ngizobonakala kubo bonke labo abanqotshiwe. Ngiyabonakala embusweni ongcwele, bese ngizifihla ezweni lokungcola. Bonke labo abanqotshiwe balalela phambi Kwami bazokwazi ukubona ubuso Bami ngamehlo abo, balizwe izwi Lami ngezindlebe zabo. Lesi yisibusiso salabo abazelwe ezinsukwini zokugcina, yisibusiso esihlelwe ngaphambili Yimina, futhi singeguqulwe yinoma ngubani. Namuhla, ngisebenza ngale ndlela ngenzela umsebenzi wekusasa. Yonke imisebenzi Yami ixhumene; kuyo yonke kukhona ubizo nokusabela: Akukaze kwenzeke ukuba noma yisiphi isinyathelo simiswe masinyane, kanti futhi akukaze kwenzeke ukuba noma yisiphi isinyathelo siqhutshwe ngokuzimela singahambisani nesinye. Akunjalo? Ngabe umsebenzi wesikhathi esidlule awusona isisekelo somsebenzi wanamuhla? Ngabe amazwi edlule akuwona andulela amazwi anamuhla? Ngabe izinyathelo ezedlule akuzona isiqalo sezinyathelo zanamuhla? Uma ngivula ngokusemthethweni umqulu kulapho abantu emhlabeni jikelele bajeziswa khona, lapho abantu emhlabeni jikelele bedlula ngaphansi kwezilingo, futhi uvuthondaba lomsebenzi Wami; bonke abantu bahlala emhlabeni ngaphandle kokukhanya, futhi bonke abantu baphila phakathi kwengozi yemiphakathi yabo. Ngamanye amazwi, yimpilo leyo umuntu angazange ayiphile ukusuka esikhathini sendalo kuze kube usuku lwanamuhla, futhi akekho kuso sonke lesi sikhathi oke “wajabulela” le nhlobo yempilo, ngakho ngithi ngenza umsebenzi ongakaze wenziwe ngaphambilini. Lesi yisimo sezindaba ezenzeka ngempela, futhi lokhu kuyincazelo yangaphakathi. Ngenxa yokuba isikhathi Sami siyasondela kubo bonke abantu, ngoba asibonakali sisekude kodwa siphambi kwamehlo omuntu, ubani ongesabe ngalokho? Ubani ongejabule ngalokhu? Idolobhakazi elingcolile laseBhabhiloni lize lagcina lifikile ekubhujisiweni; umuntu usephinde wahlangana nomhlaba omusha sha, futhi izulu nomhlaba sekuguquliwe kwenziwa kusha.

305. Lapho iSinimi itholakakala emhlabeni—lapho umbuso utholakala—ngeke kusaba khona impi emhlabeni, ngeke iphinde ibe khona indlala, izifo eziwumshayabhuqe, kanye nokuzamazama komhlaba, abantu bazoyeka ukwakha izikhali, konke kuzophila ngokuthula nangozinzo, futhi kuzokuba nokuphilisana kahle phakathi kwabantu naphakathi kwamazwe. Kodwa okukhona manje akunakuqhathaniswa nalokhu. Konke okuphansi kwezulu kusesiphithiphithini, ukuketulwa kwemibuso kuqala ukwenzeka kancane kancane ezweni ngalinye. Njengoba uNkulunkulu ekhuluma izwi Lakhe abantu bayaguquka kancane kancane, futhi, ngaphakathi, onke amazwe kancane kancane ehlukana phakathi. Isisekelo esizinzile seBhabhiloni siqala ukuzamazama, njengenqaba eyakhiwe esihlabathini, futhi, njengoba intando kaNkulunkulu igudluka, kuzokwenzeka izinguquko ezinkulu emhlabeni kungabonakali, futhi zonke izinhlobo zezimpawu zizobonakala noma nini, ukubonisa abantu ukuthi usuku lokugcina lomhlaba selufikile! Lolu uhlelo lukaNkulunkulu, lezi yizinyathelo asebenza ngazo, futhi izwe ngalinye ngokuqinisekile lizohleshulwa libe yizicucu, iSodoma elidala lizoshabalaliswa okwesibili, futhi ngalokho uNkulunkulu uthi “Umhlaba uyawa! IBhabhiloni alikwazi kwenza lutho!” Akekho omunye ngaphandle kukaNkulunkulu uqobo okwazi ukukuqonda ngokugcwele lokhu; kukhona, vele, umkhawulo ekwazini kwabantu. Ngokwesibonelo, izinduna zomnyango wezindaba zangaphakathi kungenzeka zazi ukuthi izimo ezikhona manje azizinzile futhi kunesiphithiphithi, kodwa azikwazi ukubhekana nazo. Zingamane kuphela zilandele umsinga, zinethemba ezinhliziyweni zazo lokuthi ngolunye usuku kuzolunga, zilangazelele ukufika kwalolo suku lapho ilanga lizophinde liphume khona empumalanga likhanyise ezweni bese kuguquka lesi simo sezinto esibi. Kuncane abakwaziyo, nokho, ngokuthi lapho ilanga liyophuma khona okwesibili, ukuphuma kwalo akuqondile ukubuyisela uhlelo oludala—kuwukuvuka kabusha, uguquko oluphelele. Lunjalo-ke uhlelo lukaNkulunkulu lwendawo yonke. Uzoletha umhlaba omusha, kodwa okukhulu kunakho konke, uzoqala ngokuvuselela umuntu.

306. Kungashiwo ukuthi wonke amazwi anamuhla angukuphrofetha izindaba zakusasa, angukulungiselela kukaNkulunkulu isigaba esilandelayo somsebenzi Wakhe. UNkulunkulu usewuqedile ngempela umsebenzi waKhe kubantu bebandla, emva kwalokho uzokwehlisa ulaka luvele phambi kwabo bonke abantu. Njengoba uNkulunkulu ethi, “Ngizokwenza abantu emhlabeni ukuba bamukele ukwenza Kwami, futhi phambi ‘kwesihlalo sokwahlulela,’ izenzo Zami zizakufakaziswa, ukuze zamukeleke kubantu emhlabeni jikelele, abazobe bamukele.” Kukhona okubonile kula mazwi? Kuwo kunengxenye elandelayo yomsebenzi Wakhe ngokufingqiwe. Okokuqala, uNkulunkulu uzokwenza zonke izinja ezingabaqaphi ezinamandla ombusazwe ukuthi zikholwe ngobuqotho bese zihlehla ziphuma eshashalazini lomlando ngokwazo, zingaphindi zilwele izikhundla noma amasu kanye nokubopha uzungu. Lo msebenzi kumele ufezwe ngokuba uNkulunkulu aphakamise izinhlekelele ezinhlobonhlobo emhlabeni. Kodwa uNkulunkulu ngeke avele; ngoba, ngalesi sikhathi, isizwe sikadrako omkhulu obomvu sisazobe siyizwe lobubi, uNkulunkulu ngeke avele, kodwa uzovela ngokusola. Leso yisimo sabalungileyo bakaNkulunkulu, akekho noyedwa ongaphunyula kuso. Ngalesi sikhathi, bonke abahlezi esizweni sikadrako omkhulu obomvu bazohlushwa ngenhlekelele, ngokwemvelo ezofaka phakathi umbuso wasemhlabeni (ibandla). Lesi yiso isikhathi sempela lapho amaqiniso ezovela khona, futhi ngalokho azozwiwa yibo bonke abantu, akekho ozophunyula. Lokhu kunqunyelwe kusengaphambili nguNkulunkulu. Kungenxa yalesi sinyathelo ukuba uNkulunkulu athi, “Manje sekuyisikhathi sokwenza izinhlelo ezinkulu.” Ngoba, esikhathini esizayo, akunakuba khona libandla emhlabeni, nangenxa yenhlekelele, abantu bayokwazi kuphela ukucabanga ngalokho okuphambi kwabo, futhi bakushaye indiva konke okunye, kulukhuni futhi ukuba bajabulele ubukhona bukaNkulunkulu bephakathi enhlekeleleni, ngakho, abantu bacelwa ukuba bathande uNkulunkulu ngenhliziyo yabo yonke esikhathini lesi esihle, ukuze bangalahlekelwa yithuba. Ngokudlula kwaleli qiniso, uNkulunkulu umahlulile udrako omkhulu obomvu, ngalokho futhi umsebenzi wobufakazi babantu ngoNkulunkulu ufike esiphelweni; emva kwalokho uNkulunkulu uzoqala isinyathelo esilandelayo somsebenzi, ebeka okungasadingeki ezweni likadrako omkhulu obomvu, bese kuthi ekugcineni abethele abantu emhlabeni wonke ebabhekise phansi esiphambanweni, emva kwalokho uzoshabalalisa sonke isintu—lezi yizinyathelo zesikhathi esizayo somsebenzi kaNkulunkulu.

307. Bonke abantu badinga ukuqonda inhloso yomsebenzi Wami emhlabeni, okungukuthi, injongo yokugcina yomsebenzi Wami kanye nezinga ekumele ngifinyelele kulo kulo msebenzi ngaphambi kokuba ungaqedwa. Uma, emva kokuhamba nami kuze kube kulolu suku, abantu bengaqondi ukuthi umsebenzi Wami umayelana nani, lokho akusho ukuthi bekuyize ukuhamba Nami? Abantu abahamba Nami kumele bayazi intando Yami. Sengisebenze emhlabeni izinkulungwane zeminyaka, futhi kuze kube namuhla ngisenza umsebenzi wami ngale ndlela. Yize kukhona izinto ezininginingi ezitholakala emsebenzini Wami, inhloso yawo ilokhu ingaguqukile. Njengoba nje, ukwenza isibonelo, noma ngigcwele ukwehlulela nokusola okubhekiswe kumuntu, engikwenzayo kusengenxa yesizathu sokumsindisa, nangenhloso yokusabalalisa kangcono ivangeli Lami, nokwandisa umsebenzi Wami phakathi kwabo bonke abeZizwe ngemuva kokuthi umuntu enziwe waphelela. Ngakho-ke namuhla, esikhathini lapho abantu abaningi bedumele kakhulu emathembeni abo, ngisaqhubeka nomsebenzi Wami, ngiqhuba umsebenzi ekumele ngiwenze ukwehlulela nokusola umuntu. Phezu kokuthi umuntu ukhathele yinto engiyishoyo nangaphandle kokuthi akanasifiso sokukhathalela umsebenzi Wami, ngisaqhubeka nokwenza umsebenzi Wami ngoba inhloso yomsebenzi Wami ayikaguquki futhi nohlelo Lwami lwasekuqaleni alusoze lwabhidlika. Umsebenzi wokwahlulela Kwami ukwenza umuntu angilalele kangcono, nomsebenzi wokusola Kwami ukuvumela umuntu ukuba aguquke ngokunomthelela ongcono. Nakuba engikwenzayo kungenxa yokuphatha Kwami, angikaze ngenze noma yini engeyona inzuzo kumuntu. Lokhu kungoba ngifuna ukwenza zonke izizwe ngaphandle kuka-Israyeli zilalele njengama-Israyeli futhi ngizenze abantu bangempela, ukuze ngibe nendawo emazweni angaphandle kuka-Israyeli. Lokhu ukuphatha Kwami; kungumsebenzi engiwufezayo emazweni abeZizwe. Namanje, abantu abaningi abakakuqondi ukuphatha kwami ngoba abanandaba nalezi zinto, esikhundleni salokho bakhathalele kuphela ikusasa labo kanye nalapho beya khona. Noma ngingathini, abantu abanandaba nomsebenzi engiwenzayo, banaka kuphela isiphetho zabo esikhathini esizayo. Uma izinto ziqhubeka ngale ndlela, umsebenzi Wami ungakhula kanjani? Ivangeli Lami lingasabalaliswa kanjani emhlabeni wonke? Kumele nazi ukuthi lapho umsebenzi Wami wanda, ngizonihlakaza, futhi Ngizonishaya njengoba nje uJehova ashaya izizwe zakwa-Israyeli. Konke lokhu kuzokwenziwa ukuze ivangeli Lami lisabalale emhlabeni wonke, nokusabalalisa umsebenzi Wami kubantu beZizwe, ukuze igama Lami lidunyiswe ngabadala nezingane ngokufanayo, negama Lami elingcwele liphakanyiswe emilonyeni yabantu bakuzo zonke izinhlanga nezizwe. Kungenxa yokuthi kulesi sikhathi sokugcina, igama Lami liphakanyiswe phakathi kwabantu beZizwe, ukuba izenzo Zami zibonwe abeZizwe futhi bangibize ngoSomandla ngenxa yezenzo zami, bese amazwi Ami enzeke ngokushesha. Ngizokwenza bonke abantu bazi ukuthi angisiyena uNkulunkulu wama-Israyeli kuphela, kodwa futhi uNkulunkulu wabo bonke abantu beZizwe, ngisho nezizwe engiziqalekisile. Ngizokwenza bonke abantu babone ukuthi nginguNkulunkulu wayo yonke indalo. Lona ngumsebenzi Wami omkhulu kakhulu, inhloso yohlelo lomsebenzi Wami ezinsukwini zokugcina, futhi yiwona kuphela umsebenzi okumele ufezwe ngezinsuku zokugcina.

308. Nibonile yini ukuthi umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uzofezani kuleli qembu labantu? UNkulunkulu uthe, ngisho eMbusweni Weminyaka Eyinkulungwane abantu kusazodingeka ukuthi baqhubeke balandele amazwi Akhe, futhi kusasa la mazwi kaNkulunkulu azoqondisa ukuphila kwabantu ezweni elihle laseKhanani. Lapho uMose esehlane, uNkulunkulu wamfundisa futhi wakhuluma naye ngokuqondile. UNkulunkulu wathumela ukudla esezulwini, amanzi nemana ukuze abantu bayijabulele, futhi kusenjalo nanamuhla: uNkulunkulu ngokwakhe uthumele izinto ezidliwayo neziphuzwayo ukuze abantu bazijabulele, futhi Yena ngokwakhe ulethe iziqalekiso ukuze asole abantu. Ngakho zonke izinyathelo zomsebenzi Wakhe zenziwa uNkulunkulu mathupha. Namuhla, abantu balambele iqiniso, bazama ukubona izimpawu nezimangaliso, futhi kunokwenzeka ukuthi bonke abantu abanjalo bashiywe, ngoba umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uya uba ngokoqobo kakhulu. Akekho owaziyo ukuthi uNkulunkulu wehlile esuka ezulwini, abakaqapheli ukuthi uNkulunkulu uthumele ukudla nezinto ezivela ezulwini—kuyilapho uNkulunkulu ekhona ngempela, nezimo ezijabulisayo zoMbuso Weminyaka Eyinkulungwane abantu abazicabangayo kuyizinto ezivela ngqo emazwini kaNkulunkulu. Lokhu kuyiqiniso, futhi lokhu kuwukuphela ukubusa noNkulunkulu emhlabeni. Ukubusa noNkulunkulu emhlabeni kuqondise enyameni. Lokhu okungeyona inyama akukho emhlabeni, ngakho bonke labo abalwela ukuya ezulwini lesithathu balwela into engekho. Ngelinye ilanga, lapho umhlaba wonke usubuyela kuNkulunkulu, umongo womsebenzi Wakhe ezulwini nasemhlabeni wonke uyolandela amazwi kaNkulunkulu; kwenye indawo, abanye abantu bayoshaya izingcingo, abanye bayogibela izindiza, abanye bayogibela izikebhe bawele ulwandle, abanye bayosebenzisa ama-laser ukuze bathole amazwi kaNkulunkulu. Bonke abantu bayokhonza futhi bayolangazelela, bonke bayosondela kuNkulunkulu, futhi bahlanganyele kuNkulunkulu, futhi bonke bayokhonza uNkulunkulu—futhi konke lokhu kuyobe kuyizenzo zikaNkulunkulu. Khumbula lokhu! Ayikho into uNkulunkulu asazoyiqala kabusha kwenye indawo. UNkulunkulu uyofeza leli qiniso: Uyokwenza ukuthi bonke abantu emhlabeni wonke beze phambi Kwakhe, futhi bakhonze uNkulunkulu emhlabeni, futhi omunye umsebenzi Wakhe kwezinye izindawo uyophela, futhi abantu bayophoqeleka ukuba bafune indlela yeqiniso. Kuyoba njengakuJosefa: Bonke babeya kuye ukuze bathole ukudla, futhi bamkhothamele, ngoba wayenezinto ezidliwayo. Ukuze bagweme indlala abantu bazophoqeleka ukuba bafune indlela yeqiniso. Wonke umphakathi wamakholwa uzokwehlelwa yindlala enzima, futhi uNkulunkulu wanamuhla kuphela ongumthombo wamanzi okuphila, umthombo ogeleza njalo owenzelwe ukuba abantu bajabule, futhi abantu bazoza bancike Kuye. Leso kuyoba yisikhathi sokwambulwa kwezenzo zikaNkulunkulu, futhi uNkulunkulu uyakhazinyuliswa; bonke abantu emhlabeni wonke bazokhonza “umuntu” onganakekile. Ingabe lolu ngeke kube usuku lwenkazimulo kaNkulunkulu? Ngelinye ilanga, abafundisi abadala bazothumela amathelegramu befuna amanzi omthombo wokuphila. Bazobe bekhulile, kodwa nabo bazoza bakhonze lo muntu, lowo ababemdelela. Emilonyeni yabo bazoqaphela futhi ezinhliziyweni zabo bazothemba—ingabe lolu akulona uphawu noma isimanga? Lapho wonke umbuso ujabulela inkazimulo kaNkulunkulu, futhi noma ubani oza kinina futhi amukele izindaba ezinhle zikaNkulunkulu uzobusiswa Nguye, futhi la mazwe nalaba bantu bazobusiswa futhi banakekelwe uNkulunkulu. Umyalelo wangelinye ilanga uyoba nje: Labo abathole amazwi evela emlonyeni kaNkulunkulu bazoba nendawo yokuhamba emhlabeni, futhi noma bangosomabhizinisi noma ososayensi, noma othisha, noma abezimboni, labo abangenawo amazwi kaNkulunkulu kuzoba nzima ngisho ukuthatha isinyathelo esisodwa, futhi bazophoqeleka ukuba bafune indlela yeqiniso. Yilokho okushiwoyo uma kuthiwa, “Ngeqiniso uzohamba emhlabeni wonke; ngaphandle kweqiniso, ngeke uye ndawo.” Amaqiniso awukuthi: UNkulunkulu uzosebenzisa Indlela (okusho ukuthi wonke amazwi Akhe) ukuze aqondise wonke umhlaba futhi abuse futhi anqobe isintu. Abantu bahlale bethemba ukujika okukhulu emisebenzini kaNkulunkulu. Ukucacisa, uNkulunkulu uqondisa abantu ngezwi, futhi kumele wenze lokho akushoyo kungakhathaleki ukuthi uyafisa ukwenza lokho noma cha; leli yiqiniso elingenakuphikwa, futhi kumele lilalelwe yibo bonke, nalo futhi laziwe yibo bonke.

309. Amazwi kaNkulunkulu azosabalalela emakhaya angenakubalwa, azokwaziwa yibo bonke, futhi kungaleso sikhathi kuphela lapho amazwi Akhe ezosabalala emhlabeni wonke. Okungukuthi, uma umsebenzi Wakhe kumele usabalale kuwo wonke umhlaba, amazwi Akhe kumele asatshalaliswe. Osukwini lwenkazimulo kaNkulunkulu, amazwi Akhe azobonisa amandla negunya lawo. Onke amazwi Akhe kusukela ngesikhathi esingakhumbuleki kuze kube namuhla azofezeka futhi azogcwaliseka. Ngale ndlela, inkazimulo izoya kuNkulunkulu emhlabeni—okusho ukuthi, amazwi Akhe azobusa emhlabeni. Bonke ababi bazosolwa amazwi asemlonyeni kaNkulunkulu, bonke abalungile bazobusiswa amazwi omlomo Wakhe, futhi bonke bazokwakhiwa futhi bapheleliswe amazwi omlomo Wakhe. Angeke abonise noma yiziphi izimpawu noma izimangaliso; konke kuzofezwa amazwi Akhe, futhi amazwi Akhe azokhiqiza amaqiniso. Wonke umuntu emhlabeni uzohalalisela amazwi kaNkulunkulu, kungakhathaleki ukuthi badala noma bayizingane, owesilisa, owesifazane, omdala, omncane, bonke abantu bazozithoba ngaphansi kwamazwi kaNkulunkulu. Amazwi kaNkulunkulu abonakala esenyameni, evumela abantu ukuba bawabone emhlabeni, ecacile futhi ephila. UNkulunkulu uze emhlabeni ikakhulukazi ukuze afeze iqiniso lokuthi “uLizwi uba yinyama,” okusho ukuthi, uze ukuze amazwi Akhe azonikezwa esenyameni (hhayi njengasesikhathini sikaMose eTestamenteni Elidala, lapho uNkulunkulu ayekhuluma ngokuqondile esesibhakabhakeni). Ngemva kwalokho ngalinye lamazwi Akhe lizogcwaliseka phakathi neNkathi Yombuso Weminyaka Eyinkulungwane, azoba amaqiniso asobala emehlweni abantu, futhi abantu bazowabona ngamehlo abo ngaphandle kokungabaza. Lena yincazelo yangempela yokuba sesimweni somuntu kukaNkulunkulu. Okungukuthi, umsebenzi kaMoya ufezwa ngenyama, nangamazwi. Lena incazelo enembayo yokuthi “uLizwi waba yinyama” nethi “Ukubonakala kukaLizwi enyameni.” UNkulunkulu kuphela ongakhuluma intando kaMoya, futhi uNkulunkulu osenyameni kuphela ongakhulumela uMoya; amazwi kaNkulunkulu enziwe acaca ekubeni sesimweni somuntu kukaNkulunkulu, futhi wonke umuntu uqondiswa yiwo. Akekho okhululiwe, bonke bakhona ngaphakathi kwalo mngcele. Yingala mazwi kuphela lapho abantu bengakwazi khona; labo abangazuzi ngale ndlela bayaziphuphela nje uma becabanga ukuthi bangathola amazwi avela ezulwini. Lelo gunya libonakaliswe uNkulunkulu ekuguqulweni abe yinyama: ukwenza ukuba bonke bakholwe. Ngisho kuthiwa ompetha abaqeqeshiwe noma abefundisi bezinkolo angeke bakwazi ukukhuluma la mazwi. Kumele bazithobe kuwo, futhi akekho ongakwazi ukuqalisa kabusha. UNkulunkulu uzosebenzisa amazwi ukuze anqobe umhlaba wonke. Uzokwenza lokhu hhayi ngokuguqulelwa enyameni, kodwa ngokusebenzisa amazwi avela umlonyeni kaNkulunkulu obe yinyama ukuze anqobe bonke abantu emhlabeni wonke; yilokhu kuphela okunguLizwi eba yinyama, futhi yilokhu kuphela ukubonakala kukaLizwi enyameni. Mhlawumbe, kubantu, kubonakala sengathi uNkulunkulu akakenzi msebenzi ongako—kodwa uNkulunkulu kufanele akhlume nje amazwi Akhe kubantu ukuze bakholwe ngokuphelele, futhi kubo ukuze bathuthumele. Ngaphandle kwamaqiniso abantu bayamemeza futhi bakhamuluke; ngamazwi kaNkulunkulu, bayathula. UNkulunkulu nakanjani uzolifeza leli qiniso, ngoba kuyicebo Lakhe lesikhathi eside: ukufeza ukufika kukaLizwi emhlabeni. Eqinisweni, asikho isidingo sokuba ngichaze—ukufika koMbuso Weminyaka Eyinkungwane emhlabeni kuwukufika kwamazwi kaNkulunkulu emhlabeni. Ukwehla kweJerusalema elisha livela ezulwini kuwukufika kwamazwi kaNkulunkulu ukuba aphile phakathi kwabantu, ukuze aphelekezele konke okwenziwa umuntu. Leli wuhlelo oluhlelwe uNkulunkulu: amazwi Akhe azovela emhlabeni iminyaka eyinkulungwane, futhi azobonisa zonke izenzo Zakhe, futhi aqedele wonke umsebenzi Wakhe emhlabeni, emva kwakho okuyophela lesi sigaba sesintu.
