Amafutha ne-rantle
Lapho abantwana bakwa-Israyeli belunywe yizinyoka ehlane, uNkulunkulu wayala uMose ukuba enze inyoka eyisisekelo futhi kwawuzosetshenziselwa leso sigameko nje. Kepha kuyini okuyisimanga sikubona kubhujiswa ngesikhathi sikaHezekiya. Inyoka le-Brazen belizosetshenziswa ehlane kodwa abantu bathola ukuthi likwazi ukuphulukisa ezinye izifo ngakho-ke baqala ukuya lapho lapho benenkinga.
Inselelo enezinto ezinjengenyoka ye-brozen yize zinamandla kaNkulunkulu kuzo, noma yini engaphandle kokuyalelwa kukaNkulunkulu ukukhonza izithombe. Abantu bangasebenzisa lezi zinto futhi ngenxa yalaba bantu abaningi bafulathela uNkulunkulu. Akukho lutho olungalungile ngabaphakathi (ama-mantles kanye namafutha okugcoba) kodwa ngezinye izikhathi abantu bagxila kakhulu kulezi zindawo abazolahlekelwa nguNkulunkulu.
Bayiswa endimeni yezinduku zasePaul nakumibi ukuthi bahamba kanjani, kusibonisa ukuthi abasebenzelana nabo bathwala amandla angashintsha izimpilo. Kepha okuphakathi kwalesikhathi noma imiyalo enikezwe ukuthi kungadala ukulimala okwengeziwe kunokuhle. Manje abantwana bakwa-Israyeli babeboshwe bakhonza inyoka yeBrazsen inyoka futhi banganaki ukukhulekela kuNkulunkulu.
Yize kunguNkulunkulu owavumela uMose ukuba akhe inyoka ethutha futhi ngokuqinisekile kungubukhona baKhe kuleyo nto, ngaphandle kwemiyalo eyonakaliswayo. Abantu abaningi bathembele kulezi zinhlamvu njengamafutha, amanzi ne-mantle, kodwa kwakuyini ukufundiswa kwalelo oyili? Cabanga nje uma uPawulu ethandazela ukuthi induku kanye nomalume wakho sephulukisiwe futhi uyigcina endaweni ephephile uma nje umuntu egula. Nakanjani bangase baphulukiswe kodwa isikhathi esiningi kunenkohlakalo futhi silahlekelwa ubuhlobo bethu noNkulunkulu. UMana uzothathwa nsuku zonke ngoba konke okukuZimu kumele kube okuhlangenwe nakho kwansuku zonke. Ibhayibheli lithi isihe sakhe sisha njalo ekuseni okusho ukuthi imana lanamuhla lingemuva namhlanje, igama lanamuhla namuhla liwela lolo suku. Uyini umyalo wamanje wempilo yakho kanye nesiphetho sakho? Kungenzeka kube ukubamba kwakho kokuthile okudala.
UNkulunkulu ufisa ubudlelwano nobuhlobo nathi kepha okumangalisayo ngaye uma ukuba khona kwakhe kuthinta noma yini engahlala kuleyo nto iminyaka eminingi abantu abangakulambi. Uyini uLizwi likaNkulunkulu manje, ngabe waphuphuthekiswa izimangaliso ongasaziboni uma kuyingubo enesifiso esidala futhi uNkulunkulu akasekho.
Kukhona ongqongqoshe uNkulunkulu abathinti lapho ebathumelela kodwa abakaze babuyele manje ukuthinta manje basakhula, manje uma benjengenyoka yenyoka endala kodwa manje. Ngiyamthanda u-Elisha ngemuva kokuthola ingubo (jacket) ka-Elija. Wayisebenzisa kanye lapho esehlukanisa umfula kepha asimboni futhi asisebenzisa. Sebenzisa amathuba njengabaphakathi kodwa futhi unaka imiyalo kubo futhi ukhumbule ukuthi lowo owayephefumula mkhulu. UNkulunkulu ufuna ubuhlobo nathi futhi ukhiye ukucindezela ukuba nalobo buhlobo naye, futhi ufisa futhi isipiliyoni esisha naye nsuku zonke.
Inkosi ikubusise
