Bodade bami abathandekayo, sibusiseke kangakanani na! Hhayi kuphela ukuthi singamalungu eBandla, kepha singamalungu futhi eNhlangano Yabesimame Yenkululeko—“inhlangano yeNkosi yabesimame.”1 Inhlangano Yabesimame Ekhululekile ingubufakazi bothando bukaNkulunkulu kumadodakazi Akhe.

Ingabe inhliziyo yakho ayijabuli uma ukhumbula iziqalo ezijabulisayo zalenhlangano? NgoMashi 17, 1842, uMprofethi uJoseph Smith wabumba abodade “ngaphansi kobupristi emva kwephethini yobupristi.”2

Ukubunjwa “emva kwephethini yobupristi” kwanika odade igunya kanye nendlela. uEliza R. Snow, umongameli-jikelele weNhlangano Yabesimame Ekhululekile, wafundisa ukuthi Inhlangano Yabesimame Ekhululekile“angeke ibe khona ngaphandle kobuPristi, ngesizathu sokuthi konke okunegunya kuvela futhi kukhuthazwa yilapho ivela khona.”3 iGosa Dallin H. Oaks weKhoramu yabaPostoli beshumi nambili wachaza kanje, “Igunya kumele lisetshenziswe yilabo abanegunya kanye nabothisha beNhlangano Yabesimame Ekhululekile … yayiyigunya lelo elizohamba liye kubona ngenxa yokuhlangana kwenhlangano kanye nebandla lika Jesu Krestu Lezinsuku Zokugcina kanye nokugcotshwa kwabantu ngamunye ngaphansi kwezandla zabaholi bobupristi ababiziweyo.”4

Ukubunjwa “emva kwephethini yobupristi” kunika odade igunya elingcwele. uJulie B. Beck, weNhlangano Yabesimame Ekhululekile ongumongameli jikelele, wachaza: “Sisebenza ngendlela yobupristi—okuchaza ukuthi siyafuna, sithole, bese senza ngokwambuleka; senze izinqumo kumakhansela; bese siyazindla ngokwethu ngokunakekela labo bantu ngamunye ngamunye. Okwethu kuyinjongo yobupristi ukulungiselela thina izibusiso zokuphila okungunaphakade ngokwenza futhi sigcina imiyalelo. Ngakho-ke, njengabafowethu abaphethe ubupristi, okwethu ngumsebenzi wesambulo, umsebenzi, kanye nokuba ngabantu abangcwele.”5

Ngenkathi kwakhiwa iThempeli laseNauvoo, iqembu lodade babanesifiso sokuhlangana ukusiza umzamo wokwakha. uEliza R. Snow wabhala umthetho waleliqembu elisha. Ngenkathi ebabonisa bona kuMprofethi uJoseph, waphendula wathi: “Tshela odade ukuba iminikelo yabo yamukelwe yiNkosi, futhi unento engcono azobenzela yona. … Ngizohlanganisa abesimame ngaphansi kobupristi emva kwephethini yobupristi.”6 Emva kwesikhashana, uMprofethi watshela Inhlangano Yabesimame Ekhululekile entsha eqeda kubunjwa: “Mina manje sengijikisa isikhiye kuwe egameni likaNkulunkulu, kanye nelenhlangano nizakujabula, futhi nolwazi nokuhlakanipha kuzogeleza phansi kusukela manje.”7 Abodade babebheke ukwenyuka kuye kwelinye izinga lobuNgcwele futhi nokulungiselela imiyalelo yobupristi masishane ukuba iphathwe ethempelini.
