　　“Phendukani: ngoba umbuso wezulu ususondele” (UMathewu: 4:17).

　　“Ngoba sesifikile isikhathi sokuqala kwesahlulelo endlini kaNkulunkulu ...” (1 Petru 4:17).

Yingale ndlela kuphela ezokwenza ukuba umsebenzi wesigaba ngasinye ulethwe phambili. UJesu wakhuluma kuphela ngezimpawu zezinsuku zokugcina, ngokuthi ubekezela kanjani nokuthi usindiswa kanjani, nokuthi uyophenduka kanjani uvume nezono, kanjalo nokuthi usithwala kanjani isiphambano ubekezelele ukuhlupheka; akaze akhulume ngokuthi abantu ezinsukwini zokugcina kumele bangene kanjani noma kumele bafune kanjani ukwanelisa intando kaNkulunkulu.

Uma sikhuluma ngolimi lwamanje, kuyahambisana nendlela abantu abaphila ngayo.

　　Ake sifunde okuqukethwe yilokhu okulandelayo: Kumele ukuqonde kanjani ukubusiseka? Yini okumele uyazi ngomthetho? Kumele ichazwe kanjani intukuthelo? Kumele senzenjani mayelana nokuphinga? Kuthiwani, futhi imithetho enjani ehambisana nesahlukaniso, ubani ongahlukanisa? Kuthiwani ngezifungo, iso ngeso, thanda izitha zakho, isifundiso ngokunikela, kanye nokunye? Zonke lezi zinto zihambisana nayo yonke ingxenye yemikhuba yenkolelo yesintu kuNkulunkulu, kanye nokulandela kwabo uNkulunkulu. Eminye yale mikhuba isenziwa nanamuhla, ayimihle futhi ayisona isidingo kubantu. Kungamaqiniso abantu abahlangabezana nawo ngenkolelo yabo kuNkulunkulu.

Konke ngakunye kuyiqiniso ngoba konke kwakuyilokhu uNkulunkulu ayekudinga esintwini; konke kwakuyimigomo kanye nesilinganiso esasinikezwe nguNkulunkulu sokuthi kumele umuntu aziphathe kanjani, futhi zimele isimo sikaNkulunkulu. Nokho, kwakuncike ezingeni lokukhula kwabo ngaleso sikhathi, babekwazi ukuzamukela nokuqonda kuphela lezi zinto. Ngokuba isono sesintu sasingakaxazululeki, iNkosi uJesu yayikwazi ukusho la mazwi kuphela, futhi wayengasebenzisa kuphela lezi zifundiso ezilula ngaphakathi kwesilinganiso sokutshela abantu bangaleso sikhathi ukuba kumele baziphathe kanjani, kumele benzeni, nokuthi kumele bakholwe kanjani kuNkulunkulu futhi bahlangabezane nezidingo Zakhe. Konke lokhu kwakunqunyiwe kususelwa esiqwini sesintu ngaleso sikhathi. Kwakungelula kubantu ababephila ngaphansi komthetho ukuba bamukele lezimfundiso, ngakho iNkosi uJesu kwakumele ifundise ngaphakathi kwaleso silinganiso.

　　Uma kufika egameni elithi "ukwahlulela," uzocabanga amazwi akhulunywa nguJehova kuzo zonke izindawo futhi amazwi okusola ashiwo nguJesu kubaFarisi. Yize la mazwi ebuhlungu, akasikho ukwahlulela abantu okwenziwa uNkulunkulu;l ngamazwi kuphela akhulunywa nguNkulunkulu ezimweni ezahlukene, okusho ukuthi, ezindaweni nasezikhathini ezahlukene; futhi awafani namazwi akhulunywa nguKristu njengoba ahlulela abantu ezinsukwini zokugcina. Ezinsukwni zokugcina, uKristu usebenzisa amaqiniso anhlobonhlobo ukuze afundise abantu, adalule ubunjalo bomuntu, futhi acubungule amazwi kanye nezenzo zakhe. Lawa mazwi aqukethe amaqiniso anhlobonhlobo, njengomsebenzi womuntu, indlela umuntu okumele alalele uNkulunkulu ngayo, indlela umuntu okumele athembeke kuNkulunkulu ngayo, indlela umuntu okumele aphile ngayo ubuntu obujwayelekile, kanye nobuhlakani kanye nesimo sikaNkulunkulu, njalo njalo. Wonke la mazwi aqondiswe engqikithini yomuntu kanye nasesimweni sakhe esikhohlakele. Ikakhulukazi, lawo mazwi adalula ukuthi umuntu umala kanjani uNkulunkulu akhulunywa mayelana nokuthi ngakho okuphathelene nokuthi umuntu kungani umuntu eyisiqu sikaSathane futhi eyisitha sikaNkulunkulu. Ekwenzeni umsebenzi wakhe wokwahlulela, uNkulunkulu akenzi nje kucace imvelo yomuntu ngamazwana ambalwa; uyayembula, abhekane nayo, ayithene esikhathini eside. Lezi zindlela zokwambula, ukubhekana, kanye nokuthena azikwazi ukushintshaniswa namagama avamile kodwa ngeqiniso umuntu angenalo nhlobo. Yizindlela zalolu hlobo kuphela okuthiwa ngukwahlulela; kungokwahlulela kohlobo olunje lapho umuntu engathotshiswa khona futhi enziwe akholwe ngokuphelele ukuba athobele uNkulunkulu, bese, ngaphezu kwalokho ezuza ulwazi oluyiqiniso ngoNkulunkulu. Okulethwa umsebenzi wokwahlulela ukuqonda komuntu ubuso bukaNkulunkulu beqiniso kanye neqiniso ngokuhlubuka kwakhe uqobo. Umsebenzi wokwahlulela wenza umuntu athole ukuqonda okuningi ngentando kaNkulunkulu, ngenjongo kaNkulunkulu, nezimfihlakalo ezingaqondakali kuye. Kuphinde kwenze umuntu abone futhi azi ubunjalo bakhe obukhohlakele kanye nomsuka wenkohlakalo yakhe, futhi aphinde akwazi ukubona ububi bomuntu. Le miphumela idalwa umsebenzi wokwahlulela, ngoba ingqikithi yalo msebenzi empeleni ingumsebenzi wokudalula iqiniso, indlela, kanye nempilo kaNkulunkulu kubo bonke abakholwa Kuye. Lo msebenzi ngumsebenzi wokwahlulela owenziwa nguNkulunkulu.

　　Ngaleso sikhathi, uJesu wenza umsebenzi omningi owawungaqondakali kubafundi Bakhe, futhi washo okuningi abantu abangakuqondanga. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi, ngaleso sikhathi, wayenganiki ncazelo. …UJesu akazelanga ukuzophelelisa nokuzuza umuntu kodwa ukuzokwenza isigaba esisodwa somsebenzi: wokuzoletha ivangeli lombuso wasezulwini nokuqedela umsebenzi wokubethelwa—futhi lapho uJesu esebethelwe, umsebenzi Wakhe wafika ekugcineni. Kodwa kulesi sigaba—umsebenzi wokunqoba—maningi amazwi okumele akhulunywe, mningi umsebenzi okumele wenziwe futhi kumele kube nezinqubo eziningi. Kulindeleke okufanayo ngezimfihlakalo zomsebenzi kaJesu noJehova okumele zembulwe, ukuze bonke abantu babe nokuqonda nokucacelwa ekukholweni kwabo, ngoba lona umsebenzi wezinsuku zokugcina futhi izinsuku zokugcina ziwukuphela komsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, isikhathi sokuphela kwalo msebenzi. Lesi sigaba somsebenzi sizokukhanyisela umthetho kaJehova kanye nokuhlenga kukaJesu, futhi sibalulekile ukuze uqonde wonke umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu wohlelo lokuphatha lweminyaka eyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha, nokuthi wazise konke ukubaluleka kanye nengqikithi yale minyaka eyizinkulungwane eziyisithupha yohlelo lokuphatha ukuze futhi uqonde inhloso yawo wonke umsebenzi owenziwa nguJesu kanye namazwi awakhuluma, kanye ngisho nokukholwa kwakho nokuthanda kwakho iBhayibheli. Konke lokhu kuzokwenza ukuba ubone. Uzowuqonda umsebenzi owenziwe uJesu kanye nomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu namuhla; uzoliqonda futhi ulazi lonke iqiniso, ukuphila nendlela. Esigabeni somsebenzi owenziwa uJesu, kungani uJesu ahamba ngaphandle kokuqeda umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu? Kungenxa yokuthi isigaba somsebenzi kaJesu sasingewona umsebenzi wesiphetho. Lapho ebethelwa esiphambanweni, amazwi ayewakhulumile afika ekugcineni; ngemva kokubethelwa Kwakhe, umsebenzi Wakhe wawusuqedwe ngokuphelele. Isigaba esikuso manje sihlukile: Kuyoba kuphela ngemva kokuba amazwi esekhulunywe kwaze kwaba sekugcineni nomsebenzi wonke kaNkulunkulu usuphothuliwe, lapho umsebenzi Wakhe uyoqedwa khona. Phakathi nesigaba sikaJesu somsebenzi, maningi amazwi agcina engashiwongo noma angaphiniyiswanga ngokugcwele. Kodwa uJesu akakhathazekanga ngalokho akusho noma angakushongo, ngoba inkonzo Yakhe kwakungeyona inkonzo yamazwi ngakho ngemva kokubethelwa esiphambanweni wahamba. Leso sigaba somsebenzi ikakhulu sasingenxa yokubethelwa, futhi asifani nhlobo nesigaba sanamuhla. Lesi sigaba somsebenzi ikakhulu simayelana nokuqedwa, ukucaciswa kanye nokufinyelelisa wonke umsebenzi esiphethweni. Uma amazwi engakhulunywanga kwaze kwaba sekupheleni kwawo, ngeke ibe khona indlela yokuphetha lo msebenzi ngoba kulesi sigaba somsebenzi wonke umsebenzi ufikiswa ekugcineni futhi ufezwa ngokusebenzisa amazwi. Ngaleso sikhathi, uJesu wenza umsebenzi omningi ongaqondakali kumuntu. Wahamba ngokuthula futhi namuhla baningi abangawaqondi amazwi Akhe, labo abanokuqonda okuyiphutha kodwa ababesakholwa ukuthi baneqiniso, abangazi ukuthi baphambukile. Ekugcineni, lesi sigaba sanamuhla sizofikisa umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ekugcineni okuphelele, futhi silethe isiphetho sawo. Bonke bayoluqonda futhi balwazi kahle uhlelo lukaNkulunkulu lokuphatha. Imibono ekumuntu, izinhloso zakhe, ukuqonda kwakhe okuyiphutha, imicabango yakhe ngomsebenzi kaJehova noJesu, imibono yakhe ngokuqondene nabeZizwe, nakho konke ukuphambuka namaphutha akhe kuyolungiswa. Umuntu uyoziqonda zonke izindlela ezifanele zokuphila nawo wonke umsebenzi owenziwe nguNkulunkulu nalo lonke iqiniso. Lapho lokhu kwenzeka, lesi sigaba somsebenzi sizophela.
