Ulungelelaniswa Njani Umsebenzi Wethu Wokushumayela?

Kanye ngaphambi kokuba afe, uYesu wathi: “Ezi ndaba zilungileyo zobukumkani ziya kushunyayelwa kuwo wonke umhlaba omiweyo kube bubungqina kuzo zonke iintlanga; kwandule ke kufike ukuphela.” (Mateyu 24:14) Kodwa lo msebenzi wokushumayela ehlabathini lonke wawuza kufezwa njani? Ngokulandela umzekelo owamiselwa nguYesu ngoxa wayesemhlabeni.—Luka 8:1.

Sizama ukuya emakhayeni abantu. UYesu waqeqesha abafundi bakhe ukuba bashumayele iindaba ezilungileyo kwindlu ngendlu. (Mateyu 10:11-13; IZenzo 5:42; 20:20) Abo bashumayeli bevangeli benkulungwane yokuqala babelwa imimandla ekhethekileyo ababemele bashumayele kuyo. (Mateyu 10:5, 6; 2 Korinte 10:13) Nanamhlanje, umsebenzi wethu wokushumayela ulungelelaniswe kakuhle, yaye bandla ngalinye linentsimi yalo elimele liyigubungele. Oku kubangela ukuba sifeze umyalelo kaYesu ‘wokushumayela ebantwini nokuba sinikele ubungqina obucokisekileyo.’—IZenzo 10:42.

Sizabalazela ukufikelela ebantwini naphi na apho bafumaneka khona. UYesu waphinda wamisela umzekelo wokushumayela kwiindawo zikawonke-wonke, njengaselunxwemeni okanye ngasequleni. (Marko 4:1; Yohane 4:5-15) Nathi sincokola nabantu ngeBhayibhile naphi na apho bakhoyo—ezitratweni, kwiindawo zamashishini, kwiipaki okanye ngefowuni. Xa sinethuba sishumayela kubamelwane, abantu esiphangela nabo, esifunda nabo, nakwizalamane zethu. Yonke le migudu iye yabangela ukuba izigidi zabantu abasehlabathini lonke bazive “iindaba ezilungileyo zosindiso.”—INdumiso 96:2.

Ngaba akukho mntu ucinga ngaye onokuthanda ukumxelela ngeendaba ezilungileyo zoBukumkani bukaThixo, nokuba ezi ndaba zithetha ntoni ngekamva lakhe? Ungazigcini esifubeni ezi ndaba zimnandi. Xelela abanye ngazo!
