Ngomqondo owodwa, uma uNkulunkulu ecela uxolo nokubekezela kumuntu, abantu babona ukuthi uNkulunkulu uyahlekisa ngabo, ngakolunye uhlangothi, bayakubona ukuba ngamahlubuka kwabo—balindele ukubona uNkulunkulu ezikhandla kakhulu ngenxa yomuntu. Ngaphandle kwalokho, uma ekhuluma ngemiqondo yabantu, uNkulunkulu uthi akanalo ikhono ngobuhlakani bokuphila noma ulimi lomuntu. Ngalokho, kolunye uhlangothi lokhu kwenza abantu baqhathanise uNkulunkulu ongokoqobo nala mazwi, ngakolunye, bayayibona inhloso kaNkulunkulu emazwini Akhe—uNkulunkulu uyababhuqa, ngokuba bayakuqonda ukuthi uNkulunkulu wembula ubuso bomuntu bangempela, akukhona futhi ukuthi utshela abantu ngezimo zangempela zikaNkulunkulu. Umqondo wemvelo wamazwi uxutshwe nombhinqo, ukuhlekisa, insini, kanye nenzondo kumuntu. Kungathi, kukho konke akwenzayo, umuntu wephula umthetho uyagwazelwa; abantu bayizifebe, kodwa uma uNkulunkulu evula umlomo Wakhe ukuba akhulume, bayaqhaqhazela ngenxa yokwesaba, ngokunzulu besaba ukuthi lizodalulwa ngokuphelele iqiniso ngabo, libashiye benamahloni ngokwedlulele ukuthi bangabhekana nanoma ngubani. Kodwa amaqiniso ngamaqiniso. UNkulunkulu akayeki ukukhuluma ngenxa “yokuphenduka” komuntu; lapho abantu behlazeka futhi bephoxeka ngokwengeziwe ngaphezu kokungashiwo ngamazwi, uNkulunkulu ububuka ngeso elivuthayo ngokwengeziwe ubuso babo. Amazwi aphuma emlonyeni Wakhe abuveza obala bonke ububi bezenzo zomuntu—yilokhu kuphela okuwukuba ngubulungiswa nokungathathi uhlangothi, lokhu kubizwa ngeQingtian,[b] yilokhu kuphela okungukwahlulela okuvela yinkantolo ephakeme yabantu. Ngakho, uma abantu befunda amazwi kaNkulunkulu, bashaywa yisifo senhliziyo masinya, kukhuphuke umfutho wegazi, kube sengathi baphethwe yisifo senhliziyo esibi, kungathi ukopha ebuchosheni sekusondele ukuthumela emuva epharadesi lasentshonalanga ukuyohlangana nokhokho babo—baziphatha kanje uma befunda amazwi kaNkulunkulu. Umuntu uba buthakathaka ngenxa yeminyaka yokusebenza kanzima, agule ngaphakathi nangaphandle, bonke ubuyena buyagula, kusukela enhliziyweni kuya emithanjeni yegazi, emathunjini amakhulu, emathunjini amancane, esiswini, emaphashini, ezinsweni, njalo-njalo. Akukho emzimbeni wonke wakhe okunempilo. Ngakho, umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu awufinyeleli ezingeni elingatholwa ngumuntu, kodwa lenza abantu bazazi bona. Ngenxa yokuthi umzimba womuntu unamagciwane, futhi ngoba usekhulile, usuku lwakhe lokufa luyasondela, futhi akukho ukuphindela emuva. Nokho lena yingxenye nje yendaba; umqondo wangaphakathi usazokwambulwa, ngokuba umthombo wokugula komuntu uyafunwa. Eqinisweni, isikhathi lapho wonke umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu uphethwa akusona isikhathi lapho umsebenzi Wakhe uyobe sewuphelile emhlabeni, ngoba lapho kuqedwa lesi sinyathelo somsebenzi, ngeke ibe khona indlela yokufeza umsebenzi wenyama esikhathini esizayo, futhi uMoya kaNkulunkulu kuyodingeka uwuqedele. Ngakho, uNkulunkulu uthi, “Lapho ngivula ngokusemthethweni umqulu yisikhathi lapho abantu emhlabeni nasezulwini besolwa khona, isikhathi lapho umsebenzi Wami ufinyelela khona ovuthondabeni, lapho abantu emhlabeni wonke bebhekene nokulingwa,” Isikhathi lapho umsebenzi enyameni usuphelile akukhona lapho umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ufika ovuthondabeni—uvuthondaba lwalesi sikhathi lusho kuphela umsebenzi wangalesi sigaba, futhi akulona uvuthondaba lwalo lonke uhlelo lokuphatha. Ngalokho, izidingo zikaNkulunkulu ngomuntu kaziphakeme. Ucela nje abantu ukuthi bamazi, ngalokho esebenzela isigaba esilandelayo, lapho intando kaNkulunkulu izobe isifeziwe khona. Njengoba umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu[c] uguquka, nesigaba[d] “somsebenzi wabantu” siyaguquka. Namuhla yisigaba somsebenzi kaNkulunkulu wasemhlabeni, futhi ngalokho kumele basebenze emazingeni aphansi. Ngokuzayo, kuzodingeka ukuthi kuphathwe isizwe, ngakho bazofakwa eKomidini Elikhulu. Uma bevakashela phesheya, kuzodingeka babhekane nezinqubo zokuwela. Ezikhathini ezinjalo bazobe bephesheya, bekude namakhaya abo—kodwa lokhu kuzobe kuyizidingo zomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu. Njengoba abantu sebeshilo bathi, “Sizodela izimpilo zethu ngenxa kaNkulunkulu uma kudingeka”—akuyona lena indlela ezohanjwa ngesikhathi esizayo? Ngubani oke wayijabulela impilo enjalo? Umuntu angahamba aye yonke indawo, avakashele phesheya, ethule umhlahlandlela emakhaya, azihlanganise nabantu abajwayelekile, futhi angakhuluma ngezindaba ezibalulekile zesizwe namalungu ezinhlangano eziphakeme; futhi uma sekudingeka, bayizwe bona uqobo impilo yasesihogweni, emva kwalokho bangakwazi ukubuye bajabulele izibusiso zasezulwini—akuzona izibusiso zomuntu lezi? Ngubani oke waqhathaniseka noNkulunkulu? Ngubani owake wahambela izizwe zonke? Eqinisweni, abantu bebeyowaqonda kancane amanye amazwi kaNkulunkulu ngaphandle kokuhlahlelwa indlela kanye nokuchazelwa—ukuthi nje abanakho ukukholwa kubo, okwelule umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu kwaze kwaba namuhla. Ngokuthi abantu bantula kakhulu—njengoba uNkulunkulu asho wathi, “abanalutho”—umsebenzi wanamuhla unobunzima obukhulu kubo; yini enye, ubuntekenteke babo, ngokwemvelo, kuvale umlomo kaNkulunkulu—akukhona na ukuthi lezi zinto yizo uqobo ezivimbele umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu? Awukakuboni lokhu na? Kukhona incazelo ecashile kukho konke okushiwo nguNkulunkulu. Lapho uNkulunkulu ekhuluma, ukhuluma udaba lwamanje, njengendaba ewumfanekiso wonke amazwi awashoyo anomlayezo ojulile. La mazwi alula aqukethe incazelo ejulile, futhi ngalokho achaza imibuzo ebalulekile—akukhona amahle ngakho amazwi kaNkulunkulu lokhu? Uyakwazi lokhu na?
