IMfundiso neziVumelwano 77–80
“Ngizonihola Phambili”
INkosi yatshela uJoseph Smith ukuthi iyo “khuluma ezindlebeni [zakhe] amazwi okuhlakanipha” (IMfundiso neziVumelwano 78:2). Yimaphi amagama okuhlakanipha owathola ngesikhathi ufunda kwi Mfundiso neziVumelwano 77-80 na?
Bhala Okufika Emqondweni Wakho
Kungakapheli iminyaka embili emva kokubuyiselwa kweBandla likaJesu Kristu, lase likhule laba namalungu angaphezu kwezi-2000 futhi lalikhula ngokushesha. NgoMashi ngonyaka ka-1832 uJoseph Smith wahlangana nabanye abaholi beBandla “ukukhuluma ngebhizinisi leBandla”: isidingo sokukhipha izambulo, ukuthenga umhlaba okuzohlanganelwa kuwo, futhi nokunakekela abampofu (bheka kwi Mfundiso neziVumelwano 78, isihloko sesigaba). Ukuhlangabezana nalezi zidingo, iNkosi yabiza abaholi abambalwa beBandla ukuthi bakhe iNkampani yoBumbano, eyayizohlanganisa imizamo “ukuqhuba inhloso” yeNkosi (ivesi 4) kulezi zindawo. Kepha ngisho nasezindabeni zokuphatha, iNkosi yayigxila ezintweni zaphakade. Ekugcineni, inhloso yokuba kube khona umshini wokugaya noma indlu yokugcina izimpahla—njengakho konke okukhona embusweni kaNkulunkulu—wukulungiselela abantwana Bakhe ukuba bathole “indawo ezweni lesilestiyali” kanye “nengcebo yaphakade” (amavesi 7, 18). Futhi uma lezo zibusiso kunzima ukuziqonda manje, phakathi nobuphithiphithi bempilo yansuku zonke, Uyasiqinisekisa ukuthi, “[masibe] nenjabulo, ngokuba ngizonihola phambili” (ivesi 18).
Amasu Okuzifundela Imibhalo Engcwele
UNkulunkulu wembula izimfihlo zakhe kulabo abafisa ukuzazi.
Emva kweminyaka eyishumi nambili emveni koMbono wokuQala, isimemo ku Jakobe 1:5 soku “cela kuNkulunkulu” saqhubeka ukuhola uJoseph Smith njalo uma ayeswele ukuhlakanipha. Ngesikhathi yena beno Sidney Rigdon benemibuzo mayelana nencwadi yeZambulo ngesikhathi behumusha iBhayibheli ngokuyalelwa nguMoya, ngokujwayelekile uJoseph wafuna ukuhlakanipha kuNkulunkulu. Ngesikhathi ufunda iMfundiso neziVumelwano 77, cabanga ngokubhala ulwazi olufihlekile olutholayo isahluko nesahluko encwadini yeZambulo.
Phezu kwalokho, dlinza ngokuthi ungasilandela kanjani isibonelo sikaMphrofethi uJoseph ngesikhathi ufunda imibhalo engcwele. Ungambuza uBaba oseZulwini ukuthi, “Yini okumele ngiyiqondisise na?”
Ngabe kwakuyini iNkampani yoBumbano na?
INkampani yoBumbano yasungulwa ngenhloso yokubhekana nezidingo zokukhipha izincwadi nezindaba zebhizinisi zeBandla e-Ohio naseMissouri. Kuyo kwakukhona uJoseph Smith, uNewel K. Whitney, kanye nabanye abaholi beBandla abahlanganisa amasu abo ukuze kufezeke izidingo zeBandla elikhulayo. Ngeshwa iNkampani yoBumbano yaba nezikweletu futhi yachithwa ngonyaka ka-1834 ngesikhathi izikweletu zingasalawuleki.
IMfundiso neziVumelwano 78:1-7
Ngingasiza “ukuqhuba inhloso” yeBandla.
INkosi yatshela uJoseph Smith nabanye abaholi beBandla ukuthi ukuphatha indlu yokubeka izimpahla kanye neyokugaya izincwadi kuzosiza “ukuqhuba inhloso, enizinikele kuyo” (IMfundiso neZivumelwano 78:4). Ungathi yini “inhloso” yeBandla na? Ake ucabange ngalokhu ngesikhathi ufunda kwi Mfundiso neziVumelwano 78:1-7. Mhlawumbe ukucabanga ngalamavesi kungaba nethonya kuwe endleleni ofeza ngayo ubizo lwakho eBandleni noma ekusizeni umndeni wakho. Ukusiza kwakho kungayi “qhuba [kanjani] inhloso” yeNkosi na? Ngabe lokho kukulungiselela kanjani ukuba ube “nendawo ezweni lesilestiyali” na? (ivesi 7).
IMfundiso neziVumelwano 78:17–22
INkosi izongihola phambili.
Uke uzizwe sengathi ungumntwana osemncane, mhlawumbe ngenxa yento “ongakayiqondi okwamanje” noma “ongakwazi ukuyibekezelela” na? IMfundiso neziVumelwano 78:17–18. Bheka iseluleko kulamavesi esingakusiza “ube nenjabulo” (ivesi 18) esikhathini ezinjenga lezo. Uma ucabanga yingani iNkosi kwesinye isikhathi ibiza abalandeli Bayo “ngabantwana abancane” na? (ivesi 17). Ungacabanga futhi nangokuthi iNkosi ingabe “ikuhola [kanjani] phambili” (ivesi 18).
Ubizo lokusebenzela uNkulunkulu lubaluleke kakhulu kunalapho ngisebenzela khona.
Mayelana ne Mfundiso neziVumelwano 80, Igosa uDavid A. Bednar wasifundisa wathi, “Mhlawumbe enye yezifundo uMsindisi asifundisa yona kulesi sambulo wukuthi ukunikwa umsebenzi endaweni ethile kuyadingeka futhi kubalulekile kodwa akubalulekile njengokubizelwa emsebenzini uqobo” (“Called to the Work,” kwi Ensign noma iLiyahona, ngoMeyi 2017, 68). Ake ucabange ngobizo lwakho lwamanje noma oselwadlula. Ngabe yikuphi osuke wakubona osekukufundise ukuthi amagama eGosa uBednar ayiqiniso na? Yiziphi ezinye izifundo ongazithola kwi Mfundiso neZivumelwano 79–80 ezingasiza omunye umuntu oqeda kuthola ubizo olusha na?
