Kwakutheni Ukuze Abafundi Bamangaliswe?

Kudla ngokutyholwa ukuba abafundi, kuba wayexelelwe nguYesu ngovuko lwakhe oluzayo, ndandingenakuvuma ukuba esi inokuba sisiphelo ngenene; besuka bazikhohlisa ngokukholwa ukuba uYesu usaphila. Nangona kunjalo, oku kuyangqubana nobungqina beTestamente eNtsha, njengoko kuxoxwe ngezantsi.

Abafundi babengalindelanga uvuko.

a) Iivangeli zihlala zisixelela oko, nangona uYesu wayekuxele kwangaphambili ukufa nokuvuka kwakhe, abafundi basilela ngokupheleleyo ukuqonda oko wayekuthetha kwaye abazange bazikholelwe iindaba xa beziva (ewe. Mt 16:21-3, 17:22-3, 20:17; UMk 16:11,13,14; Iphepha 24:11,25; Yoh 2:19, 16:16-32, 20:2,25).

b) Abafundi babemgqala uYesu njengoMesiya (uKristu) Yoh 1:49, Yoh 6:69, Mt 16:16 [UMk 8:27, Iphepha 9:20], Yoh 11:27, Iphepha 24:21. Ingxaki yayikukuba, njengakumaYuda ngokubanzi ukuza kuthi ga namhlanje, ingcamango yawo ngoMesiya yayinjengomkhululi owoyisileyo owayeya kukhulula ilizwe lakhe kwingcinezelo yasemzini. Kwiingcinga zamaJuda, uMesiya ofileyo wayengenguye uMesiya konke konke. NguYesu’ ukufa kwaluphanzisa ulindelo lwabo kwaza kwabangqina benganyanisekanga. Kungoko kubonakala ukuphoxeka kwabafundi ababini kwindlela yase-Emawusi, nangona babesele bevile ibali labafazi (Iphepha 24:17-24).

c) Nangona kukho imimangaliso embalwa yovuko ebhalwe kwiTestamente eNdala, ukubanjwa ngokubanzi kuYesu’ usuku, njengokuba nakwethu, yayikukuba abantu abafileyo ababuyi baphile. Ukuthi ngqo, nangona uYesu wayevuse abantu ababini abafileyo ngokwakhe, akukho namnye wakha wavuswa ngaphandle kokuthunywa ngumprofeti onamandla – nomprofeti wabo wayefile: akukho namnye owakha waziphakamisa.

d) Inkxalabo yabafazi yayikukuba babengenaxesha lokungcwaba uYesu ngokundilisekileyo (umzimba wawungekasuswa emnqamlezweni kwada kwahlwa, njengoko bekutshiwo ngaphambili). Babechithe ixesha labo ngempela-veki belungisa iziqholo ukuze bawugqibe umsebenzi xa kuphela iSabatha (UMk 16:1, Iphepha 23:56-24:1).

Uvuko olungelulo olwasenyameni bekuya kuba lula kubo ukulwamkela kunolo lokwenyama.

a) Nangona ingcamango yesithethe yamaYuda yayityekele ekuwujongeni umoya, umphefumlo kunye nomzimba njengento edibeneyo, yaye abaSadusi bakhanyela nakuphi na ukubakho kobomi obahlukileyo bokomoya okanye naluphi na uvuko, abaFarisi, awathi uYesu ngakwicala lakhe kulo mbandela, wavuma ukuba umoya wawuqhubeka uphila emva kokufa. ITestamente eNdala ibandakanya ingxelo yongquzulwano phakathi kukaKumkani uSawule nomoya kaSamuweli (1 USam 28:11-9). Le nkolelo ikwabonakala nakuYesu’ umzekeliso kaDives noLazaro (Iphepha 16:19-31). Kunokucatshulwa eminye imizekelo.

b) Okubaluleke ngakumbi iincwadi zevangeli zibonisa ukuba abafundi’ iingcinga ezizezakhe zijonge ngokwendalo kolu hlobo lokutolika. Oku sinokukubona kwingxelo engoYesu ehamba phezu kwamanzi; apho intelekelelo yokuqala abayenzayo yayikukuba babebona umoya (Mt 14:26 [UMk 6:49, Iphepha 24:37]). Ngokufanayo, sinayo ingxelo yokwenziwa kumila kumbi, apho uYesu wabonwa encokola noMoses noEliya (Mt 17:3 [UMk 9:4, Iphepha 9:30]). (Ingongoma ekufuneka uyiqaphele apha kukuba, kungakhathaliseki ukuba wenza ntoni na ngeziganeko ezimangalisayo ezichazwe, basasinika ukuqonda kwindlela ababecinga ngayo.)
