Isango lasemhlabeni lokungenela kwamandla kaNkulunkulu
UJakobe, owaziwa nangokuthi u-Israel, ungumlingisi obalulekile kumlando weTestamente Elidala wenkanyezi yami yasenyakatho. UJakobe uyindodana ka-Isaka noRebheka, futhi ungumzukulu ka-Abrahama. UJakobe ubaluleke kakhulu eqenjini lakhe lamadodana ayishumi nambili, aqala izizwe eziyishumi nambili zakwa-Israyeli. Empeleni uJakobe ubizwa futhi ubizwa ngokuthi inzalamizi.
Impilo kaJakobe ifana nokugitsheliswa kwenkohliso, ukulwa okunamandla, kodwa futhi yokholo olujulile nokuzinikela okuphelele kuNkulunkulu. Indaba yakhe injengomgogodla wokulandisa kwami kweNkanyezi yasenyakatho, namadodana akhe nenzalo yawo akha umlando wabantu bamaJuda.
Kodwa nakhu okuguquguqukayo kwangempela: UJakobe uphupha iladi elihlanyayo elifika ezulwini, izingelosi zehla zenyuka phakathi kwezulu nomhlaba ngenxa yaleso ladi. Phezulu, uNkulunkulu uyavela futhi enze izithembiso ezingathi sína ngezwe, inzalo eningi njengezinhlayiya zothuli, izibusiso zakhe nawo wonke umuntu emhlabeni, nesivikelo saphezulu. Leliphupho leladi, khona kanye kuGenesise 28:10-19, lingesinye sezikhathi ezingokomfanekiso nezingokomfanekiso kulo lonke iBhayibheli.
Iladi lifana ‘nocingo lwezulu nomhlaba’: umugqa oqondile phakathi kwezulu nomhlaba, okhombisa ukuthi uMdali uNkulunkulu akayena nje umuntu okude kodwa angafinyeleleka ngokuphelele futhi asebenzisane nami njengomuntu. Ngaphezu kwalokho, uJesu uyisitebhisi: ngokuba umuntu nangokuza emhlabeni wami, iNdodana kaNkulunkulu yazenzela indlela eya kuBaba osezulwini, ileli eliholela ezulwini. Akashongo yini yena ukuthi uyindlela, nokuthi akekho ongafinyelela kuBaba ngaphandle kwakhe (cf. Johane 14:6)?
Etestamenteni elisha, ngihlangana nenkulumo ethokozisayo (ingasaphathwa engakholakali) eyashiwo uJesu Uqobo Lwakhe. Ubhekisela esenzakalweni esizayo lapho amazulu ayovuleka khona futhi izingelosi ziyokwenyuka futhi zehlele phezu ‘kwendodana yomuntu’ engaqondakali ( cf. Johane 1:51 ). Lokhu kusikisela kimi ukuthi ukuba senyameni Kwakhe emhlabeni, okwenzeka ngaleso sikhathi, kwakungekona ukugcwaliseka kwalesi sibikezelo, kodwa isenzakalo Yena mathupha asihlehlisela esikhathini esizayo.
Kuqhubeke kuze kube namuhla, isiprofetho sikaJesu, kanye nephupho likaJosefa, azikagcwaliseki ngokugcwele. Ngakho-ke, ezikhathini zokuphela eziholela ekubuyeni okukhazimulayo kukaJesu, umfanekiso omusha wenceku ethembekile yoMdali kuyodingeka uvele: uJakobe 2.0, uphawu lomlandeli kaNkulunkulu oqotho oyiyona kanye incazelo yaleli gama.
Lo Jakobe wangaleso sikhathi uzothatha indima yokuba inzalamizi kamoya kubalandeli bakaJesu ezikhathini zokugcina, esungula ukuxhumana okunamandla nokuqinisekile phakathi kwezulu nomhlaba. Uyoba ‘indodana yomuntu’ ezoletha emhlabeni isitebhisi sasezulwini esaphupha ezinkulungwaneni zeminyaka edlule nguJakobe weTestamente Elidala, enze ukuxhumana phakathi kwezwe elingokomoya nelasemhlabeni. Lokhu kuxhumana okuqondile phakathi kwezulu nomhlaba kuzoqinisa umsebenzi wezingelosi ngokwamandla, ukuvama nokuqina, okungakaze kubonwe ngaphambili. UJoseph 2.0 oyimpicabadala uzosebenza njengesango lasemhlabeni lokungenela kwamandla kaNkulunkulu. Iplanethi yami ekhathazekile futhi efayo iyogcwala ukukhanya namandla amakhulu kunanini ngaphambili. Izwe lasemhlabeni nelasezulwini ekugcineni liyohlanganiswa, futhi umhlaba wonke uzokhanyiswa ngomlayezo onamandla: ‘I-Matrix iwile. Phuma ku-Matrix!’ (cf. IsAmbulo 18:1-8).
Futhi lapho lokhu kwenzeka, ngizobe ngiqhelelene nesinyathelo esisodwa emzuzwini wokunqoba lapho uJesu ebuya kubo bonke ubukhosi Bakhe obukhazimulayo.
