Kungani uJesu ethandaza?

Ukuze siqonde ukuthi uJesu unguNkulunkulu osemhlabeni ethandaza kuYise osezulwini, kumelwe siqaphele ukuthi uYise Ongunaphakade neNdodana Yaphakade babenobuhlobo obuphakade ngaphambi kokuba uJesu enze isimo somuntu. Ngicela ufunde uJohane 5:19-27, ikakhulukazi ivesi 23, lapho uJesu efundisa khona ukuthi uYise wathumela iNdodana (bheka noJohane 15:10). UJesu akazange abe iNdodana kaNkulunkulu lapho ezalwa eBhetlehema. UbeyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu kusukela phakade, uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu manje futhi uyohlala eyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu.

U-Isaya 9:5 uthi iNdodana wanikwa futhi umntwana wazalwa. UJesu ubelokhu eyingxenye kaZiqu-zintathu kanye noMoya oNgcwele. UZiqu-zintathu ubulokhu ukhona: uNkulunkulu uYise, uNkulunkulu iNdodana kanye noNkulunkulu uMoya - hhayi onkulunkulu abathathu, kodwa uNkulunkulu oyedwa, okhona kubantu abathathu. UJesu wafundisa ukuthi yena noBaba bamunye (Johane 10:30). Yena noyise banento efanayo nengqikithi. UYise, iNdodana noMoya bangabantu abathathu abalinganayo abakhona njengoNkulunkulu. Bobathathu babenobudlelwano futhi basenobudlelwano obuphakade.

Lapho uJesu, iNdodana kaNkulunkulu yaphakade, ethatha isimo sobuntu esingenasono, futhi waba inceku eyadela inkazimulo Yakhe yasezulwini ( Filipi 2:5-11 ). NjengoNkulunkulu-Muntu, kwakufanele afunde ukulalela uYise ( KumaHeberu 5:8 ) njengoba elingwa uSathane, wamangalelwa ngamanga abantu, wenqatshwa abantu bakhe, futhi ekugcineni wabethelwa esiphambanweni. Wathandaza kuYise wasezulwini ecela amandla ( Johane 11:41-42 ) nokuhlakanipha ( Marku 1:35; 6:46 ). Umthandazo wakhe wabonisa ukuncika kwesimo sakhe sobuntu kuYise ukuze icebo likaYise lensindiso lifezeke, njengoba kufakazelwa umthandazo kaJesu wobupristi obuphakeme kuJohane 17 . Umthandazo wakhe wabonisa ukuthi ekugcineni wazithoba entandweni kaYise, okwakuwukuba aye esiphambanweni ayokhokha inhlawulo (yokufa) ngokwephula kwethu umthetho kaNkulunkulu ( Mathewu 26:31-46 ). Yebo, wavuka ngokwenyama ethuneni, ezuza intethelelo nokuphila okuphakade kulabo abaphendukayo ezonweni zabo futhi bakholwe Kuye njengoMsindisi.

Akunankinga uNkulunkulu iNdodana ekhuleka noma ekhuluma noNkulunkulu uBaba. Njengoba kushiwo, babenobuhlobo obuphakade ngaphambi kokuba uKristu abe umuntu. Lobu budlelwane buvezwe emaVangelini ukuze sibone ukuthi uNkulunkulu iNdodana esesimweni somuntu wayifeza kanjani intando kaYise futhi ngalokho wazuzela abantwana Bakhe insindiso (Johane 6:38). Ukuqhubeka nokuzithoba kukaKristu kuBaba wakhe waseZulwini kwaqinisekiswa futhi kwagxila empilweni yakhe yomkhuleko. Kungumsebenzi wethu ukulandela isibonelo sikaKristu ngomthandazo.

UJesu Kristu wayengeyena omunye ngaphandle kukaNkulunkulu emhlabeni lapho ethandaza kuYise osezulwini. Wabonisa ukuthi ngisho nasesintwini esingenasono kudingekile ukulondoloza ukuphila okuphilayo komthandazo ukuze enze intando kaYise. Umthandazo kaJesu kuYise wabonisa ubuhlobo bakhe kuZiqu-zintathu futhi uyisibonelo kithi sokuthi kumelwe sithembele kuNkulunkulu ukuze sithole amandla nokuhlakanipha esikudingayo ngomthandazo. Njengoba uKristu, uMuntu kaNkulunkulu, wayedinga impilo yomkhuleko esebenzayo, lokhu kuyasebenza nakubalandeli bakaJesu namuhla.
