UJesu Uphorofida Ngezehlakalo Zangomuso Ezizokuthinta Iphasi Loke

UJesu ukhuluma ngezehlakalo ezizokutjhengisa bona sele akhona emandleni wombuso, nesesiphelo sezinto

ENTABENI ye-Oliva, lapho gade bakwazi ukubona ubukhazikhazi beJerusalema netempeli lalo, abafundi bakaJesu abane bambawa ngerhorhomejeni bona abahlathululele izinto egade akhuluma ngazo. UJesu bekathe itempeli leJerusalema lizokutjhalaliswa. Ngaphambilini gade abatjele “ngomhla wokuphela.” (Matewu 13:40, 49) Abapostoli abane bambuza: “Kuzakwenzakalani ezatjengisa bona isikhathi sesifikile sokobana uze, nephasi bonyana selifikile emaphelelweni na?”—Matewu 24:3.

Ependulwenakhe, uJesu wabatjela bona yini egade izokwenzeka ngaphambi kobana iJerusalema litjhatjalaliswe. Kodwana amezwakhe gade atjho okunengi kunalokho. Iimphorofido zakhe gade zizokuba nokuzaliseka okukhulu ephasini loke. Esinye isitjengiso uJesu aphorofida ngaso gade kuzizehlakalo zephasi. Isitjengisweso gade sizokutjengisa abasephasini bonyana ukuba khona kwakaJesu njengeKosi ezulwini kuthomile. Isitjengiswesi gade sizokubonisa bona uJehova uZimu wenze uJesu iKosi eyathenjiswa kade yoMbuso wobuMesiya. Isitjengisweso gade sizokutjho bona uMbuso sele uzokususa ubumbi begodu ulethe ukuthula kwamambala ebantwini. Izinto uJesu azibikezelako gade zizokuba litshwayo lesiphelo—sekolo, sezobupolotiki, sendlela yokuphila yanje—nesokuthoma kwephasi elitjha.

Ahlathulula bona yini egade izokwenzeka ephasini phakathi kokubakhona kwakhe njengeKosi ezulwini, uJesu wathi gade kuzokuba nezipi ephasini loke, ukutlhayela kokudla, ukusikinyeka kwephasi okukhulu, nokurhatjheka kwamalwelwe. Ukutlhoga umthetho gade kuzokwanda. Abafundi bakaJesu bamambala gade bazokutjhumayela iindaba ezihle ezikhuluma ngoMbuso kaZimu ephasini loke. Zoke iintwezi beziyokuphumela ‘eentlayisekweni’ ezingazange-khe zenzeke ngaphambili.—Matewu 24:21.

Abafundi bakaJesu gade bazokwazi njani bona iintlayiseko zitjhidele? UJesu wathi kibo: ‘Umuthi wamafeyi awunifundise isifundo.’ (Matewu 24:32) Abantu nebabona ukutlhurha kwamakari wefeyi ematakeni bayazi bonyana ihlobo litjhidele. Ngokufanako, ukubona zoke izinto uJesu azibikezelako zisenzeka hlangana nesikhathi esithileko, sitjengiso sokobana ukuphela kutjhidele. Akakho noyedwa owazi ngokunqophileko ilanga ne-iri iintlayiseko ezikulu eziyokuthoma ngalo, kodwana nguBaba kwaphela. Kungalokho uJesu akhuthaza abafundi bakhe: ‘Yelelani, ngombana anazi bona isikhathi sizakufika nini.’—Markosi 13:33.

—Isekelwe kuMatewu izahluko 24 no-25; uMarkosi isahluko 13; uLuka isahluko 21.

◼ Ngisiphi isiluleko uJesu asinikela abafundi bakhe?

UJesu wabikezela bona kuzokuba netshwayo elitjengisa bona isikhathi sakaZimu sokutjhabalalisa iphasi elonakeleko lanamhlanjesi sitjhidele. Ukusukela ePini yePhasi 1, abantu bakufakazela lokho uJesu akuphorofidako. Ikolo, zobupolotiki, izehlakalo ezibangela itjhuguluko elikhulu ephasini loke, msinyana nokunganakubalekelwa zidosela ekupheleni kwephasi. uJesu watjela abalandeli bakhe bona nebazakusinda, kufuneka ‘bayelele’ begodu benze isiqunto sokuba sehlangothini lendaba yokulwelwa kobukhosi bakaZimu.a—Luka 21:36; Matewu 24:3-14.
