Ukholo, Usapho, Uncedo
“Kumazwi [wengoma yabantwana abancinane], ‘Usapho lolukaThixo,’ … thina siyakhunjuzwa ngemfundiso emsulwa,” watsho uCarole M. Stephens, uMcebisi Wokuqala kuBongameli Jikelele Bombutho Wamanina. “Asifundi qha ukuba usapho lolukaThixo kodwa ukuba sonke siyinxalenye yosapho lukaThixo. …
“… Icebo likaBawo labantwana baKhe licebo lothando. Lona licebo lokumanyanisa abantwana baKhe—usapho lwaKhe—kunye naYe.”1
UMdala L. Tom Perry (1922–2015) weQumrhu LabaPostile Abalishumi Elinambini wathi: “Thina siyakholelwa ukuba iintsapho eziqinileyo ezisesikweni ayingamaqela azinzileyo wokuhlala okuliqilima, wezoqoqosho eliqilima, kunye nenkcubekho yezithethe eziliqilima—kodwa zingamaqela azinzileyo wangonaphakade kunye nobukumkani norhulumente kaThixo.
“Siyakholelwa ukuba isiseko kunye norhulumente wasezulwini uya kokhelwa kwiintsapho kunye nakwiintsapho ezandisiweyo.”2
“Wonke umntu, nokuba isimo sakhe somtshato siyintoni na okanye inani labantwana bakhe, angabangumlweli wecebo likaThixo elichazwa kwisibhengezo sosapho,” watsho uBonnie L. Oscarson, uMongameli Jikelele Wamantombazana Amincinane. “Ukuba elo licebo leNkosi, kumele ibelicebo lethu nathi!”3
IziBhalo Ezongezelelweyo
Imfundiso Yosapho
Udade Julie B. Beck, owayesakuba nguMongameli Jikelele Wombutho Wamanina, wafundisa ukuba imfundo yosapho isekelwe phezu kweNdalo, Ukuwa, kunye neNtlawulelo kaYesu Krestu:
“Indalo yomhlaba yanikeza ngendawo apho iintsapho zazingahlala khona. UThixo wadala indoda nomfazi ababeziziqingatha ezimbini ezazibalulekileyo zosapho. Kwakuyinxalenye yecebo likaBawo Osezulwini lokuba u-Adam kunye no-Eva batywinwe kwaye baseke usapho lwanaphakade.
“… Ukuwa kwenza ukuba bakwazi ukuba babenoonyana neentombi.
“… INtlawulelo ka[Krestu] ivumela ukuba usapho lutywinwe kunye ngonaphakade. Ivumela iintsapho ukuba zibenokukhula kwanaphakade kunye nokugqibelela. Icebo lolonwabo, elithi libizwe icebo losindiso, yayilicebo elalidalelwe iintsapho. …
“… Le yayi yimfundiso kaKrestu. … Ngaphandle kosapho, alikho icebo; asikho isizathu sobomi basemhlabeni.”4
