“Mabazibandakanye Ngokukhuthala Emsebenzini Omuhle”

UMongameli uDallin H. Oaks wasifundisa wathi, “Imibhalo engcwele izosisiza ukuxazulula imibuzo yethu esinayo ngoba ngokuyifunda simema futhi siyafaneleka ukuthi sithole ukuyalwa nguMoya oyiNgcwele, ozosiholela kulona lonke iqiniso” (kuDavid A. Edwards, “Are My Answers in There?” New Era, ngoMeyi 2016, 42).

Bhala Okufika Emqondweni Wakho

Ngesikhathi amagosa eBandla ebona isiza sedolobha iSiyoni—e-Independence, eMissouri okokuqala—kwakungekhona lokhu ababekulindele. Abanye babecabanga ukuthi babezothola umphakathi okhulayo, nokhuthele wabaNgcwele. Esikhundleni salokho bathola indawo enabantu abayidlanzana, engenayo impucuko abayijwayele futhi kuhlala izifiki ezingenamasiko esikhundleni sabaNgcwele. Kuyavela-ke ukuthi iNkosi yayingabaceli ukuthi beze eSiyoni nje kuphela—Yayifuna ukuthi bayakhe imbala.

Uma esikulindele kungahambisani nesikubonayo emhlabeni, kufanele sikhumbule ukuthi iNkosi yabatshelani abaNgcwele ngonyaka ka-1831: “Anikwazi ukubona ngamehlo enu enyama okwamanje, isu likaNkulunkulu … nenkazimulo ezolandela emva kosizi olukhulu” (iMfundiso neziVumelwano 58:3). Yebo, impilo igcwele ubunzima, ngisho nobubi, kodwa singakwazi “ukwenza ukulunga okuningi; ngokuba amandla [akithi]” (amavesi 27-28).

Amasu Okuzifundela Imibhalo Engcwele

Imfundiso neziVumelwano 58:1–5, 26–33, 44; 59:23

Izibusiso zifika ngesikhathi esibekwe uNkulunkulu nangokukhuthala kwethu.

AbaNgcwele basibeka isisekelo seSiyoni eJackson County, eMissouri, lapho babhekana khona nobunzima obuningi. Nakanjani babenethemba lokuthi ngezikhathi zabo zokuphila lendawo yayizokhula ibe yindawo lapho bonke abaNgcwele babengabuthanela khona. Kodwa, abaNgcwele bakhishwa eJackson County eminyakeni embalwa, futhi iNkosi yembula ukuthi abantu Bayo kuyofanele “balinde isikhashana kuze kubuyiselwe iSiyoni” (iMfundiso neziVumelwano 105:9).

Ngesikhathi ufunda lemisho elandelayo, bheka izizathu ezingenza ukuthi izibusiso zibanjwe okwesikhashana. Lemibuzo engezansi ingakusiza uzindle ngayo.

IMfundiso neziVumelwano 58:1-5; 59:23. Yimiphi imiyalezo kulamavesi ekusizayo ukuthi uqinise ikhono lakho lokuthwala ubunzima bakho ngokubekezela na? Yiziphi izibusiso osuzitholile emva kobunzima na? Uma ucabanga kungani ezinye izibusiso zifika emva kobunzima na?

IMfundiso neziVumelwano 58:26-33. Iyiphi indima edlalwa “ukuzibandakanya ngokukhuthala emsebenzini omuhle” ekugcineni izethembiso zikaNkulunkulu na? Iyiphi indima edlalwa ukuhlonipha kwakho na?

IMfundiso neziVumelwano 59, isihloko sesigaba

Ngabe kwakungubani uPolly Knight na?

UPolly Knight kanye nomyeni wakhe, uJoseph Knight Sr., babengabanye bokuqala ukukholelwa obizweni lukaJoseph Smith lobuphrofethi. UPolly noJoseph bameseka kakhulu uMphrofethi emsebenzini wokuhumusha iNcwadi kaMormoni. Umndeni wakwaKnight wahamba waya eColesville, eNew York, ukuyohlanganyela nabanye abaNgcwele e-Ohio futhi emva kwesikhashana bayalelwa ukuthi bathuthele eJackson County, eMissouri. Ngesikhathi besahamba, impilo kaPolly yaqala ukuba ntekenteke, kodwa waye phikelela ekuboneni iSiyoni ngaphambi kokuba ashone. Wayesehlale eMissouri izinsukwana nje ngesikhathi edlula emhlabeni. IMfundiso neziVumelwano 59 yatholwa ngosuku adlula ngalo emhlabeni, futhi ivesi 1 nelesi 2 kungathi abhekiswe kuyena ngqo.

IMfundiso neziVumelwano 59:9-19

Ukugcina iSabatha lingcwele kuletha izibusiso zesikhashana kanye nezomoya.

Emva kokubathembisa abaNgcwele eSiyoni “ngemiyalelo engembalwa,” iNkosi yagcizelela umyalelo owodwa vo: umyalelo wokuhlonipha “usuku olungcwele” Lwakhe (iMfundiso neziVumelwano 59:4, 9).
