Ukudalwa kwezwe nokuziphendukela kwemveloEkuqaleni uNkulunkulu wadala izulu nomhlaba. Genesise 1:1UNkulunkulu wathi: “Amanzi mawagcwale uswebezane lwezilwane eziphilayo, kundize izinyoni phezu komhlaba emkhathini wezulu.” Genesise 1:20UNkulunkulu wadala imikhomo emikhulu nezilwane zonke eziphilayo ezihambayo, amanzi agcwala zona ngezinhlobo zazo, nezinyoni zonke ezinamaphiko ngezinhlobo zazo. UNkulunkulu wabona ukuthi kuhle. Genesise 1:21UNkulunkulu wathi: “Umhlaba mawuveze izilwane eziphilayo ngezinhlobo zazo, izinkomo, nezilwanyana ezinwabuzelayo, nezilo zomhlaba ngezinhlobo zazo,” kwaba njalo. Genesise 1:24UNkulunkulu wathi: “Masenze abantu ngomfanekiso wethu, basifuze, babuse phezu kwezinhlanzi zolwandle, nezinyoni zezulu, nezinkomo, nomhlaba wonke, nezilwanyana zonke ezinwabuzelayo emhlabeni.” Genesise 1:26UNkulunkulu wamdala umuntu ngomfanekiso wakhe; wamdala ngomfanekiso kaNkulunkulu; wabadala owesilisa nowesifazane. Genesise 1:27UJehova uNkulunkulu wambumba umuntu ngomhlabathi, waphefumulela emakhaleni akhe umoya wokuphila; kanjalo umuntu waba umphefumulo ophilayo. Genesise 2:7ngokuba ngezinsuku eziyisithupha uJehova wenza izulu nomhlaba, nolwandle, nakho konke okukukho, waphumula ngosuku lwesikhombisa; ngalokho uJehova walubusisa usuku lwesabatha, walungcwelisa. Eksodusi 20:11Kepha mawubuze izinkomo, ziyakukufundisa, nezinyoni zezulu, ziyakukutshela. Khuluma kuwo umhlaba, uyakukufundisa, nezinhlanzi zolwandle ziyakukulandisa. Ngubani ongaziyo ngakho konke lokho ukuthi isandla sikaJehova sikwenzile lokho na? Jobe 12:7-9God thundereth marvellously with his voice; great things doeth he, which we cannot comprehend. Jobe 37:5“Ake ubheke uBehemoti engamenza kanye nawe; uyadla utshani njengenkabi. Bheka-ke, amandla akhe asezinkalweni zakhe, nezikhwepha zakhe zisemisipheni yesisu sakhe. Uqinisa umsila wakhe njengomsedari; imisipha yamathanga akhe yalukene. Amathambo akhe anjengemibhobo yethusi; izimbambo zakhe zinjengemigoqo yensimbi. Jobe 40:15-18Inyakatho neningizimu wakudala wena; iThabori neHermoni kuyajabula egameni lakho. AmaHubo 89:12Kungakaveli izintaba, ungakawenzi umhlaba nezwe, kuthi kusukela phakade kuze kube phakade wena Nkulunkulu ukhona. AmaHubo 90:2Uyathumela umoya wakho, zidalwe; wenza bube busha ubuso bomhlaba. AmaHubo 104:30Makuthathe kudumise igama likaJehova, ngokuba wayaleza, kwadaleka. AmaHubo 148:5Usho kanje uNkulunkulu uJehova owadala izulu, waleneka, nowawendlala umhlaba nokuvela kuwo, nowanika abantu abakuwo ukuphefumula nomoya kwabahamba kuwo, uthi: Isaya 42:5yimi engenza ukukhanya nengidala ubumnyama, ngenza ukuthula, ngidala okubi; nginguJehova owenza konke lokho. Isaya 45:7Yimi engiwenzile umhlaba, ngadala abantu phezu kwawo; mina ngezandla zami ngeneka izulu, nebandla lalo lonke ngiliyalezile. Isaya 45:12Ngokuba usho kanje uJehova, owalidala izulu, onguNkulunkulu, owawubumba umhlaba, wawenza, wawumisa, engawudalelanga ize, wawubumba ukuba kuhlalwe kuwo, uthi: “NginguJehova, akakho omunye. Isaya 45:18“Ngokuba bheka, ngiyadala izulu elisha nomhlaba omusha; izinto zakuqala aziyikukhunjulwa, zingene enhliziyweni. Isaya 65:17“Asinaye ubaba munye thina sonke? Asidalwanga nguNkulunkulu munye na? Sikhohlisanelani, kube yilowo nomfowabo, sisingcolisa isivumelwano sawobaba na? Malaki 2:10Kepha kusukela ekuqaleni kokudalwa uNkulunkulu wabenza owesilisa nowesifazane. Marku 10:6Ngokuba lezo zinsuku ziyakuba nosizi olungazange lube khona olunjalo kwasekuqaleni kokudalwa akudalayo uNkulunkulu kuze kube manje, nolungasayikuba khona. Marku 13:19Konke kwavela ngaye; ngaphandle kwakhe akuvelanga lutho kukho konke okuvelileyo. Johane 1:3Ngokuba okungabonwayo kwakhe, kuthi amandla akhe aphakade nobuNkulunkulu bakhe kubonakala kwasekudalweni kwezwe, ngokuba kuqondakala ngezenzo zakhe, ukuze bangabi nakuzilandulela, ngokuba kuthe bemazi uNkulunkulu, kabamdumisanga, kabambonganga njengoNkulunkulu, kodwa balutheka ekuzindleni kwabo; inhliziyo yabo engaqondiyo yaba mnyama. Bezisho ukuthi bahlakaniphile baba yiziwula, nenkazimulo kaNkulunkulu ongabhubhiyo bayiguqula ifane nomfanekiso womuntu obhubhayo, owezinyoni, nowezilwane ezinezinyawo ezine nezinwabuzelayo. Ngalokho uNkulunkulu wabanikela ezinkanukweni zezinhliziyo zabo kukho ukungcola, bahlazisane imizimba yabo, baguqule iqiniso likaNkulunkulu, balenza amanga; bahlonipha, bakhonza okudaliweyo kunoMdali ongobongekayo kuze kube phakade. Amen. AmaRoma 1:20-25Ngokuba ukulangazela kokudaliweyo kulindele ukwambulwa kwabantwana bakaNkulunkulu. Ngokuba okudaliweyo kwabekwa phansi kobuze, kungengentando yakho kodwa ngaye owakubekayo, ethembeni lokuthi nakho okudaliweyo kuyakukhululwa ebugqileni bokubhubha, kube ngukukhululeka kwenkazimulo yabantwana bakaNkulunkulu. Ngokuba siyazi ukuthi konke okudaliweyo kuyabubula kanyekanye kunezinseka kuze kube manje; AmaRoma 8:19-22Ngokuba indoda ayidalelwanga owesifazane, kodwa owesifazane wadalelwa indoda. 1 Korinte 11:9Ngokuba singumsebenzi wakhe kuKristu Jesu, sidalelwe imisebenzi emihle ayilungisela ngaphambili uNkulunkulu ukuba sihambe kuyo. Efesu 2:10ngokuba kwadalelwa kuyo konke okusezulwini nasemhlabeni, okubonwayo nokungenakubonwa, nokuba kuyizihlalo zobukhosi, nokuba kuyimibuso, nokuba kuyizikhulu, nokuba kuyiziphathimandla; konke kwadalwa ngayo, kwadalelwa yona; Kolose 1:16Xwayani funa kube khona onithumbayo ngokuhlakanipha nangenkohliso eyize njengokwemvelo yabantu, njengezifundiso zokucathula kwezwe, kungenjengokukaKristu. Kolose 2:8nembethe omusha, owenziwa musha abe nokwazi ngokomfanekiso walowo owamdalayo, And have put on the new man , which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: Kolose 3:10benqabela ukuganana, bethi akuzilwe ukudla akudalayo uNkulunkulu ukuba kwamukelwe ngokubonga yibo abakholwayo nabalaziyo iqiniso. 1 Thimothewu 4:3nokuthi: “Wena Nkosi, ekuqaleni wabeka isisekelo somhlaba; amazulu angumsebenzi wezandla zakho. KumaHeberu 1:10Kepha ukukholwa kungukuqiniseka ngezinto ezithenjwayo, kuyiqiniso ngezinto ezingabonwayo. Ngokuba okhokho bafakazelwa ngakho. Ngokukholwa siqonda ukuthi izwe lonke ladatshulwa ngezwi likaNkulunkulu, kuze kuthi okubonwayo akuvelanga kokubonwayo. KumaHeberu 11:1-3nazi kuqala lokhu ukuthi ngezinsuku zokugcina kuyakufika abahleki abahleka usulu, behamba ngezinkanuko zabo, bethi: “Siphi isithembiso sokufika kwakhe na? Ngokuba kuselokhu obaba balala, konke kumi kunjalo njengakwasekuqaleni kokudalwa.” Ngokuba bathanda ukukhohlwa lokhu ukuthi kwaphakade izulu lalikhona kanye nomhlaba owavela emanzini nangawo amanzi, umi ngezwi likaNkulunkulu, okwathi ngawo izwe elalikhona labhubha ngokukhukhula kwamanzi; 2 Petru 3:3-6“Nakuyo ingelosi yebandla laseLawodikeya loba ukuthi: “Nakhu akushoyo u-Amen, ufakazi othembekayo noqinisileyo, ukuqala kokudaliweyo kukaNkulunkulu, uthi: IsAmbulo 3:14“Ufanele wena Nkosi yethu noNkulunkulu wethu ukwamukela inkazimulo nodumo namandla, ngokuba nguwena owadala izinto zonke, nangenxa yentando yakho zaba khona, zadalwa.” IsAmbulo 4:11yafunga yena ophilayo kuze kube phakade naphakade, owadala izulu nokukulo, nomhlaba nokukuwo, nolwandle nokukulo, yathi: “Akusayikubakho isikhathi, IsAmbulo 10:6Ngase ngibona enye ingelosi indiza emkhathini wezulu, inevangeli eliphakade ilishumayela kwabahlezi emhlabeni, nakuzo zonke izizwe, nemindeni, nezilimi, nabantu, isho ngezwi elikhulu, ithi: “Mesabeni uNkulunkulu, nimnike inkazimulo, ngokuba ihora lokwahlulela kwakhe selifikile; nikhuleke kuye owenza izulu nomhlaba nolwandle nemithombo yamanzi.” IsAmbulo 14:6-7
