Labo abayekayo ukusebenza noma abamayo futhi bahlehlele emuva ngokwesaba umonakalo ongase ube khona emsebenzini bangamagwala amakhulu. Uma umuntu ehluleka ukuveza lokho okumele akuveze ngenkathi enza umsebenzi noma efeza lokho angakwazi ukukufeza, futhi kunalokho edlala futhi ebhekene nemizwa, ulahlekelwe umsebenzi okumele umuntu odaliwe abe nawo. Lolu hlobo lomuntu luthathwa ngokuthi ujwayelekile futhi akayinto yalutho; kungenzeka kanjani ukuthi umuntu onje ahlonishwe ngokuba njengesidalwa esidaliwe? Ave lokho kuyizinhlaka zokukhohlakala ezikhanya ngaphandle kodwa zibe zibolile ngaphakathi? Uma umuntu ezibiza ngoNkulunkulu ebe engakwazi ukubonakalisa ubuNkulunkulu bakhe, enza umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu Uqobo, akunakungatshazwa ukuthi akasiye uNkulunkulu, ngoba akanawo umongo kaNkulunkulu, futhi lokho uNkulunkulu angakwazi ukukufeza akukho ngaphakathi kuye.

Abantu abanjalo bayohlala bengaguquliwe futhi bayoqalekiswa. Abakuvezayo akuve nje kungahlanzekile, kodwa baveza ububi bodwa.
ENkathini Yomusa, uJesu wakhuluma futhi wenza umsebenzi omkhulu. Wayehluke kangakanani kuno-Isaya? Wayehluke kangakanani noDaniyeli? Ngabe wayengumprofethi? Kungani kuthiwa unguKristu? Yini umehluko phakathi kwabo? Bonke babengamadoda ayekhulume amazwi, futhi amazwi abo ayefuna ukufana kumuntu. Bonke babekhuluma futhi benze umsebenzi. Abaprofethi bakwiTestamente Elidala baprofetha, futhi ngokufanayo, noJesu wayengakwazi ukwenza lokho. Kungani kunjalo? Umehluko lapha ususelwa kuhlobo lomsebenzi. Ukuze kwahlukaniswe kulolu daba, kumele ubheke uhlobo lwenyama futhi kumele ungabheki ukujula noma ukungakholakali kwamagama omunye. Kumele uqale ngokubheka umsebenzi wakhe kanye nomthelela womsebenzi wakhe onawo kumuntu. Iziphrofetho ezakhulunywa abaphrofethi ngaleso sikhathi azinikanga ukuphila komuntu, futhi imiyalezo eyatholwa yilabo abanjengo-Isaya noDaniyeli kwakuyiziphrofetho nje, kungasiyo indlela yokuphila. Uma kwakungeve kungenxa yesambulo sikaJehova, akekho umuntu owayengenza lowo msebenzi, ongeke wenziwe ngabantu. NoJesu wakhuluma kakhulu, kodwa lawo mazwi ayeyindlela yokuphila umuntu ayengathola indlela yokuphila ngawo.

Umsebenzi Wakhe wawungumsebenzi ophakathi kokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu futhi ubandakanya isintu sisonke. Wayengasebenzi kubantu abambalwa kuphela, kanjalo nomsebenzi Wakhe kwakungasikho ukuhola abantu abambalwa. Mayelana nokuthi uNkulunkulu waba sesimweni somuntu, nendlela uMoya ayeletha izambulo ngayo ngaleso sikhathi, nokuthi uMoya wawudlulela kanjani kumuntu ukuze wenze umsebenzi, lokhu kuwumsebenzi umuntu ayengenakuwubona noma awuthinte. Kunzima impela ukuthi la maqiniso asebenze njengobufakazi bokuthi unguNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu. Ngakho, umehluko ungenziwa phakathi kwamazwi kanye nomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, ongephatheke kumuntu. Yilokhu kuphela okungokwangempela. Imbangela yalokhu ukuthi izindaba zoMoya azibonakali kuwe futhi azaziwa ngokucacile uNkulunkulu Uqobo kuphela, futhi hhayi ngisho noNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu ngokwenyama ukwazi konke; ungaqinisekisa kuphela ukuthi unguNkulunkulu[a] ngomsebenzi awenzile. Ngomsebenzi Wakhe, kungabonakala ukuthi, kuqala, ukwazi ukuvula isikhathi esisha; okwesibili, ukwazi ukuhlinzeka ngokuphila kumuntu futhi akhombise umuntu indlela okumele ayilandele. Lokhu kwanele ukuze kubonakale ukuthi UnguNkulunkulu Uqobo. Okungenani, umsebenzi awenzayo ungamela uMoya kaNkulunkulu, futhi lowo msebenzi ungathathwa ngokuthi unguMoya kaNkulunkulu ongaphakathi Kwakhe. Njengoba umsebenzi owenziwa uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu kungukudlulisela umuntu esikhathini esisha, ukuhola umsebenzi omusha, futhi uvulekele izimo ezintsha, le migomo embalwa iyodwa yanele ukuze kubonakale ukuthi unguNkulunkulu Uqobo. Ngakho lokhu kumenza ehluke kuno-Isaya, uDaniyeli, kanye nabanye abaphrofethi abakhulu. U-Isaya, uDaniyeli, kanye nabanye babeyizifundiswa futhi belandela usiko; babengamadoda amangalisayo ayeholwa uJehova. Inyama kaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu nayo yayinolwazi olukhulu futhi yayingakuswele ukuhlakanipha, kodwa ubuntu Bakhe babujwayelekile impela. Wayengumuntu ojwayelekile, futhi iso lenyama lalingenakwahlukanisa ubuntu obukhethekile Ngaye noma lalingaboni lutho ebuntwini Bakhe olwalwehlukile kwabanye. Wayengenawo amandla amakhulu ayengajwayelekile noma ongavamile, futhi wayengenayo noma iyiphi imfundo ephekeme, ulwazi, noma imfundiso. Impilo ayekhuluma ngayo kanye nendlela ayahamba ngayo wayengayitholanga emfundisweni, olwazini, ngalokho abhekane nakho ngokwedlule, noma ngokukhuliswa ekhaya. Kunalokho, kwakuwumsebenzi kaMoya oqondile kanye nasenyameni eyaba sesimweni somuntu. Ngoba umuntu akanayo imizwa eminingi kaNkulunkulu, futhi ikakhulukazi ngoba lokhu kuqonda kwakhiwa okuningi okungaqondakali nokungaphezu kwemvelo yomuntu, emehlweni omuntu, uNkulunkulu ojwayelekile onobuthakathaka bomuntu, owayengenakuqonda izimpawu nezimangaliso, kuqinisekisiwe ukuthi akasiye uNkulunkulu. Akusiwo amaphutha okuqonda komuntu lawa? Uma inyama kaNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu beyingajwayelekile kumuntu, pho bekungashiwo kanjani ukuthi waphenduka inyama? Ukuba yinyama kungukuba ngojwayelekile, umuntu ojwayelekile; ukuba Wayebe isidalwa esehlukile, wayengeke abe yinyama. Ukufakazela ukuthi uyinyama, uNkulunkulu osesimweni somuntu kwakudingeka ukuthi abe nenyama ejwayelekile. Lokhu kwakwenzelwa ukugcwalisa ukubaluleka kokuba ngumuntu. Nokho, kwakungenjalo kubaprofethi namadodana omuntu. Babengamadoda ayeneziphiwo futhi esetshenziswa uMoya oNgcwele; emehlweni omuntu, ubuntu babo babubukhulu impela, futhi babenza okuningi okwakungaphezu kobuntu objwayelekile. Ngenxa yalesi sizathu, umuntu wayebathatha ngokuthi banguNkulunkulu. Manje nonke kufanele nikuqonde ngokucacile lokhu, ngoba bekulokhu kuwudaba obeludida abantu abaningi ezinkathini ezedlule. Phezu kwalokho, ukuba sesiswemi somuntu kukaNkulunkulu yikho okuyimfihlo kakhulu kunakho konke, futhi ukuba sesimweni somuntu kukaNkulunkulu yikho okunzima kakhulu ukuthi umuntu akwamukele. Engikushoyo kudala ukuthi kugcwaliseke umsebenzi wakho kanye nokuqonda izimfihlakalo zokuba nesimo somuntu kukaNkulunkulu. Lokhu kuphathelene nokuphatha kukaNkulunkulu, embonweni. Ukuqonda le ntando kwakho kuzokusiza ukuze uthola ulwazi ngombono, okuwukuthi, ukuphathwa komsebenzi. Ngale ndlela, uzokwazi ukuqonda umsebenzi okumele wenziwe abantu abehlukene. Yize la mazwi engakukhombisi indlela, asewusizo olukhulu ekungeneni kwakho, ngoba ukuphila kwenu manje kuntula umbono, futhi lokhu kuzoba isihibe esikhulu esikuvimba ekungeneni. Uma bewungakuqondi lokhu, akuzoba khona okukugqugquzela ukuthi ungangeni. Futhi lokhu okulandelayo kungenza uwugcwalise kanjani umsebenzi wakho ngamandla akho wonke?
