Isigeniso : Sitshelwa ukuthi ukukholwa kayisikho kubona ngendlela ejwayekileyo. Uyavumelana lakho na? Cabanga ukuthi abafundi babe kholwa ukuthi uJesu wayezaphenduka ngesikhathi sabo. (Bona u 1 KwabaseTesalonika 4:15-18). Khathesi sokuyiminyaka eyizinkulungwane ezimbili. Sengike ngamelela abantu abaphuzileyo njalo sengike ngaphuza njalo. Uma ukukhangele ngelihlo lansuku zonke kuzwakala kungela nqondo. Usuke wakholwa into ekhanya ingeqedakali? Into lapho okungela ngitsho ubufakazi obuncane. Sikubiza lokhu sithi zinganekwane! Lithini iBhayibheli ngokukholwa? Kuyedlula ubufakazi?Kumele sime iminyaka ezinkulungwane kungela ngitsho ubufakazi ukuthi kayisizo iziwula? Kumbe ukukholwa kulensikela esingayakha kiyo?Kasingenenini esifundweni sizwisise!

I. Kakula bufakazi?

A. Funda kumaHeberu 11:1. Uthi kungabayini isizatho sokukholwa? (Amathemba ethu lezinto ezingabonwayo.)

1. Kangisiso isikhwica kusiGiriki, kodwa livesi ithi ngokukholwa “ubufakazi abubonwa.” Kutsho na ukuthi abathi ukukholwa kakusinto esobala baqinisile?

a. Kumbe, Okulobufakazi bokukholwa, kasibo nje “abafakazi” kukho?
B. Funda amaHeberu 11:3. Singabofakazi kulokhu? (Hatshi.)
1. Kukhona okumele kubonwe lapha? (Yebo. Sibona imihlaba yonke.
2. Kuliqiniso ukuthi “ubufakazi abubonwa” ukuthi uNkulunkulu wadala umhlaba ngokukhuluma nje kuphela? (Kasimbonanga uNkulunkulu ekwenza. Ukukhuluma ngomlomo bekungeke kubonakale ngabe sasikhona kudalwa)
C. Funda Amahubo 19:1-3. UDavida lomlobi wamHeberu balombona otshiyeneyo?
1. AmaHeberu 11:3 asishela ngokukholwa kuphela siyakholwa ukuthi uNkulunkulu wadala amazulu. Inkosi uDavida uthi amazulu akhuluma obala (“ayamemeza,” “aveza ukuzwisisa” ngomdali uNkulunkulu wethu. Wonke umuntu uyezwa njalo uyazwisisa loludaba. Ngubani, nguDavida loba AmaHeberu olodaba olusobala? )
D. Khangela lapho ohlezi khona. Bukushelani ubufakazi bokubonayo ngobakhona komhlaba ukuthi wazivelela loba kwakukhona UMdali ohlakaniphileyo?
1. Ingadi yakho yenza njani kungekho umuntu oyilungisayo?
2. Indlu yakho yenza njani uma kungekho oyiqoqayo?
3. Imoto yakho yenza njani uma kungela muntu oyinkakayo?
4. Umsebenzi wakho wenza njani kungela muntu ongenelayo? (Kangazi wena, kodwa iguma lami, indlu yami, lemoto yami, lomsebenzi wami udinga ubukhona bwami ngesikhathi sonke-lokhu kusho ukuthi kakukho okungalunga kungela muntu ongenelayo ovela ngaphandle. Kungekela ukungenela umuntu bekuzakuma kucine sokungasekho.)
E. Ukuzwisisa kwami yikuthi ulwazi lwesayensi oluphezulu luthi umhlaba wasuka ekudumeni kwenye indawo eyodwa. Kungabayini ubufakazi balokhu? (Umhlaba uyaqela ngokulinganayo kumacele wonke.)
1. Kungaba yibufakazi lokhu ukuthi ngesikhathi esithile uMdali uNkulunkulu wakhuluma umhlaba wabakhona?
2. Abafundi beze sayensi bakholwa ukuthi ukukhula komhlaba kubalulekile kakhulu. Ngabe ukhula masinyane kakhulu, amandla adonsela izinto phansi angaphela umhlaba “uchithizeke.” Kunga yibufakazi besenzakalo senhlanhla “somdumo” lesi kumbe uMalungisi nuye ozabeka indlela umhlaba okhulayo ngeqetsha elithile?
F. Funda amaHeberu 11:4. U-Abela wayengela bufakazi ngoNkulunkulu wakhe? (Wayelobufakazi obwabumgombolozele. Kukhanya uNkulunkulu wakhuluma buso no buso lo Kaeyini lo Abela (Genesise 4:6).)
1. Yikho, kungabayini, injongo yokukholwa kuka Abela? (Ukukholwa kwakhe kwakuku Nkulunkulu. Ukwethemba uNkulunkulu kwakuyikho lapho ukholo luka Abela olwalukhangele khona.)
2. Sishelwa ukuthi u-Abela usakhuluma. Uthini kuwe? Ubeka ngaphi ukukholwa kwakho kulokho akutshoyo? (Indaba ka-Abela emfishane (Genesise4:1-10) ilemitsho eminengi ngokukholwa. Kusitshela ukuthi ukuphika uNkulunkulu kukhokhelela ezonweni ezimbi kakhulu. Kusitshela ukuthi ukulalela uNkulunkulu kakutsho ukuthi sizakuba lempilo epheleleyo lapha. Kusitshela ukuthi uNkulunkulu uzaziveza ngokuya kwesikhathi.)
II. Umzekeliso wokuqala wokukholwa: UThomasi

1. UThomasi wacela bufakazi bani? (Ubufakazi bokuqala.)
B. Funda kuJohane 20:26-29. UJesu ukhuthaza kukholwa bani? (Labo abangabonanga kodwa bekholwa.)
1. UJesu ucela ukukhplwa okuyisiphofu, ukungela kucabanga? (Izinto ezimbili. Okokuqala, uJesu unika uThomasi kanye ubufakazi abudingayo. Okwesibili, labo “ababusisiweyo” yilabo abakholwayo ngenxa yobufakazi obuvela kwabanye. UJesu kacela abalandeli bakhe ukuthi bacabange ukuthi uvusiwe.)

III. Umzekeliso wesibili wokukholwa:Wena
A. Funda ku- 1 Petro 1:3-5. UVesi 5 ukhuluma ngokuvikelwa kwethu “ngokukholwa.” Sivikelwa kukuphi? (Funda ku-1 Petro 1:6. Ukukholwa kwethu kusivikela ekudangaleni uma izikhathi ezizima zisiza.)
1. Khangela njalo ku 1 Petro 1:3-5. Injongo yokukholwa kwethu ingabyini? (Ukuthi uNkulunkulu uzasinikea impilo entsha emhlabeni omutsha. Ithemba lethu kulokhu leyame kuJesu lovuko lwakhe kwabafileyo.)
B. Funda ku-1 Petro 1:8. Singabafakazi ngamehlo ethu ekuvukeni kuka Jesu? (Hatshi.)
C. Funda ku-1 Petro 1:10-12. Kasilabo na ubufakazi ngokuvuka kuka Jesu? (Hatshi. Silodaba lokaPetro ngalo. Phezu kwalokhu silobufakazi obuvela ekugcwalisweni kweziporofethi.Abaporofethi betestamente elidala babe khuluma lathi lapho beloba iziporofethi zikaJesu.)
IV. Umzekeliso wesithathu wokukholwa: UJariyasi
A. Funda kuLuka 8:40-42. UJariyasi wayelokukholwa na? Wayekholwani? (Ukukholwa kwakhe(ithemba?) kwakuyikuthi uJesu uzakwelapha indodakazi yakhe.)
1. Ukukholwa kukaJariyasi kwakungela nqondo?
B. Funda kuLuka 8:43-49. UJariyasi ulobufakazi na ukuthi uJesu uzamsiza? (Wayelobufakazi obuthile, kodwa khathesi bonke ubufakazi buku Jesu njalo uJesu kamsizanga.)
C. Funda kuLuka 8:50. UJayirasi ulobufakazi na khathesi ukuthi uJesu uzamsiza?
1. Uma uthe, “yebo,” kungabayini ubufakazi?
D. Funda ku Luka 8:51-56. Sasiyini isimo sokukholwa salabo ababe khala kungabi ngu vesi 54?
1. Sikhangele kakhulu uvesi 56. Ukukholwa kuka Jariyasi kukusiphi isigaba? (Abazali bamangala okutsho ukuthi uJariyasi wayengenakho ukukholwa ukuthi indodakazi yakhe ingavuka kwabafileyo.)
E. Loludaba lusifundisani ngokukholwa kuNkulunkulu lesimo sobufakazi bokukholwa kwethu? (Okokuqala, iloba kukhanya engathi uNkulunkulu kazange enze ebesikukhangelele, ukukholwa kwethu kumele kumelele isikhathi sakhe uNkulunkulu. Okwesibili uJariyasi waye lobufakazi emandleni kaJesu-ngenxa yomama owaphuzisa uJesu indodakazi yakhe yaze yafa. Okwadinga ukukholwa okungazange kubonwe yibukhulu besimanga –ukuvuswa kwendodakazi yakhe!)
F. Mngane, Kulobufakazi obunengi bokuthi sikholwe. Uzabambelela uqine ekukholweni kwakho, loba ongela abafakazi “abaziboneleyo”, kumbe uma okubona kuphikisana lobufakazi obukhona. Ungama ngokukholwa uJesu uzokunikeza impilo enaphakade! Ungazibona uqalisa ukuthandabuza, khangela umhlaba lendalo yonke uzibuze ukuthi konke lokhu kungazivelela?
V. Iviki elandelayo: Ithemba.
