uthandazela abalahlekileyo . UThixo uhloniphile, kwaye kwiimeko ezininzi uphendule, imithandazo enyanisekileyo yamakholwa yokusindiswa kwabangakholwayo. Ngokubhekisele ekusindisweni kwakhe, uL. R. Scarborough, umongameli wesibini weSouthwestern Baptist Theological Seminary kunye nomhlali wokuqala wokubekwa njengesihlalo sokuqala sokushumayela ehlabathini (Usihlalo woMlilo), ubalise:
Ukuqala komntu kwimpembelelo ekhokelela ekusindisweni kwam kwakungumthandazo kamama wam egameni lam xa ndandilusana. Uye wakhwela ebhedini, wehla waya engcwabeni ukuze ndiphile, kwaye wakhasa ngamadolo akhe enqumleza umgangatho ndaza ndazalwa xa ndandineeveki ezintathu ubudala, wathandaza kuThixo ukuba andisindise ngexesha lakhe elililo kwaye abize ukuba ndishumayele.[1]
Ngapha koko, uphando lubonakalisile kule minyaka ingamashumi amabini idlulileyo ukuba ngaphandle kobungakanani okanye indawo, iicawa zase Southern Baptist ezixela awona manqanaba aphezulu okubhaptizwa bathi bathandazela ukusindiswa kwabangakholwayo ngamagama ngenxa yempumelelo yabo yevangeli.[2]
Nangona imizekelo yembali kunye nobungqina bophando lwentsikelelo kaThixo kwimithandazo yamakholwa yokusindiswa kwabalahlekileyo kungabhalwa, ingaba ikho eminye imizekelo eseBhayibhileni malunga nokuthandazela ukusindiswa kwabangakholwayo ukuze kuqinisekiswe le mizekelo nobungqina? Ewe, ibhayibhile iyamisela umzekelo wokuba amakholwa athandazele ukusindiswa kwabalahlekileyo, xa umntu ethathela ingqalelo into yokuba u Yesu wayenza, uPawulos wavuma, kwaye isiBhalo siyalela ukuthandazela ukusindiswa kwabangakholwayo.
Umzekelo kaYesu
Ibhayibhile iyangqina ukuba uKristu wathandazela abalahlekileyo. Ngokubhekisele kwimbandezelo yoMkhonzi we Umyalelo weSibhalo Ekugqibeleni, amakholwa ayalelwa ukuba athandaze ngeendlela ezahlukeneyo kubo bonke abantu, ookumkani, kunye nabasemagunyeni. UPawulos ubhala athi, Ndiyaqala ngoko ke ukululeka bonke ubongoza, imithandazo, izibongozo, nokwenza umbulelo, ngenxa yabo bonke abantu, ngenxa yookumkani nabo bonke abasemagunyeni, ukuze sihlale ngokonwaba nangokuzola, sinokuhlonela uThixo, nokundileka konke. Kuba oku kuhle kwaye kwamkelekile emehlweni kaThixo uMsindisi wethu, onqwenela ukuba bonke abantu basindiswe kwaye bafikelele ekuyazini inyaniso (1 Tim 2: 1-4, NKJV). Umpostile ucacisa ukuba izicelo ezibhaliweyo egameni labantu bonke,… ookumkani… [kunye nabo] abasegunyeni 1) kufuneka zenziwe ukuze baphile ngokuhlonela uThixo nangokuhlonela ngoxolo no-2) kufuneka zibonakalise zilungile kwaye zamkelekile kuThixo onqwenela usindiso lomntu wonke. Ngezi zizathu, izikhungo, imithandazo, kunye nokuthandazela okufunekayo kumakholwa kufuneka kubandakanye uxwebhu lwezikhalazo lokusindiswa kwabantu bonke. Cinga ukuba uninzi, ukuba ayingabo bonke, bookumkani nabasemagunyeni abhekisa kubo uPawulos babengengobantu nje abangakholwayo, kodwa babewacinezela amakholwa. Akumangalisi ukuba uPawulos abhenele kwithemba lomhla apho amakholwa angaphila ubomi bokuhlonela uThixo kunye noxolo, ngaphandle kwesoyikiso sentshutshiso. Olo suku lwalunokwenzeka ukuba amakholwa ngomhla kaPawulos ayenokuthandazela ukusindiswa kwaba balawuli bangoozwilakhe, kwaye ngenxa yokuva ivangeli baya kukholwa, ngaloo ndlela kuphele ingcinezelo yabo. Ukongeza, uPawulos uthi ukuthandazela ukusindiswa kwabantu bonke kuyamkholisa kwaye kwamkelekile kuThixo. Njengokuba uThomas Lea echaza, igatya lesi-v. 4 linika isiseko sebango kwindima 3 yokuba ukuthandazela bonke abantu kuyamkholisa uThixo. Injongo yemithandazo ebongozwa nguPawulos yeyokuba bonke abantu basindiswe. Ukuthandazela bonke abantu kuyamkholisa uThixo onqwenela ukuba bonke basindiswe .[3]UThixo unqwenela ukubona wonke umntu esindisiwe kwaye eze kulwazi lwenyaniso, nangona ingengabo bonke abaya kwenza njalo. Ke ngoko, ukuze bakhokele ubomi bokuhlonela uThixo kunye nentlonipho kwaye bakholise uThixo ngokucela kwabo, imithandazo, nokuthethelela, amakholwa ayalelwa ukuba athandazele usindiso lwabantu bonke, abakhulu nabancinci. Kwintshumayelo awayenesihloko esithi, UMary Magdalene , UC. USpurgeon ubongoze oku kulandelayo ngokubhekisele kuxanduva lwamakholwa ukubongoza ukusindiswa kwabalahlekileyo: Kude kuvalwe isango lesihogo emntwini, akufuneki siyeke ukumthandazela. Kwaye ukuba siyambona esanga kanye le minyango yomgwebo, kufuneka siye kwisihlalo sokucamagusha kwaye sibongoze ingalo yobabalo ukuba imsuse kwindawo yakhe eyingozi. Nangona ubomi bukhona ithemba, kwaye nangona umphefumlo uphantse waphelelwa lithemba, akufuneki siphelelwe lithemba ngabo, kodwa endaweni yoko sizivuse ukuze sivuse ingalo kaSomandla. Ngokwabo ukufaneleka, imizekelo yembali efana naleyo yeScarborough kunye / okanye ubungqina bepragmatic njengaleyo ibhalwe nguRainer noParr inika amakholwa izizathu zokuthandazela usindiso lwabangakholwayo. Nangona kunjalo, umzekelo kaYesu, ukwamkelwa kukaPawulos, kunye nemiyalelo ye-1Tim 2: 1--4 njengoko ichaziwe apha ngasentla ityhila kumakholwa uxanduva lwawo lokuthandazela ukusindiswa kwabalahlekileyo. Xa okholwayo ethandazela umphefumlo womntu olahlekileyo aze emva koko asindiswe, abagxeki bangathi awunto eyenzekileyo ngaphandle kwengozi nje. Xa iicawa zithandazela usindiso lwabangakholwayo ngamagama kunye neziphumo ezisebenzayo zokukhula kwevangeli, abagxeki banokuyithatha njengepragmatism. Nangona kunjalo, mhlawumbi ileyibhile efanelekileyo yokutyumba amakholwa athandazela ukusindiswa kwabalahlekileyo iya kuba yiBhayibhile. [1] L. R.
