“YILALELENI”

7. Yiphi indaba elandiswa kuMathewu 17:1-5 lapho uJehova akhuluma khona esezulwini njalo wathini?

⁷ Bala uMathewu 17:1-5. UJehova wakhuluma okwesibili esezulwini ngesikhathi uJesu ‘eguquka isimo.’ UJesu wathatha uPhetro loJakhobe loJohane wakhwela labo entabeni ende. Sebekhonale abaphostoli babona umbono omangalisayo. Ubuso bukaJesu bakhazimula lezembatho zakhe zacazimula. Khonokho nje babona uMosi lo-Elija bexoxa loJesu ngokufa lokuvuswa kwakhe okwasekusondele. Lanxa abaphostoli laba abathathu “babekade bephethwe yibuthongo,” bavuka khwatshu bawubona umbono. (Luk. 9:29-32) Kusenjalo iyezi elikhazimulayo labagubuzela futhi kwezwakala ilizwi likaNkulunkulu livela kuleloyezi. UJehova wakhuluma amazwi afanana lalawo awakhuluma ngesikhathi uJesu ebhabhathizwa atshengisa ukuthi uyamthanda lokuthi uyamamukela. Wathi: “Le yiNdodana yami engiyithandayo futhi engiyamukelayo.” Kodwa embonweni lo wengeza wathi: “Yilaleleni.”

9. Yiziphi izinto eziluncedo uJesu azitshela abafundi bakhe?

⁹ “Yilaleleni.” UJehova wakwenza kwacaca ukuthi ufuna silalele njalo senze lokho iNdodana yakhe eyakutshoyo. Kuyini okwakhulunywa nguJesu ngesikhathi esemhlabeni? Wakhuluma izinto ezinengi eziqakathekileyo. Ngokwesibonelo, wafundisa abalandeli bakhe ukutshumayela izindaba ezinhle njalo wabakhumbuza kanengi ukuthi bahlale belindile. (Mat. 24:42; 28:19, 20) Waphinda wabakhuthaza ukuthi bangakhalali lokuthi basebenze ngamandla wonke ukuze bangene ngomnyango omncane. (Luk. 13:24) Kanti njalo wabalaya ukuthi bathandane, bamanyane futhi balalele imilayo yakhe. (Joh. 15:10, 12, 13) UJesu watshela abafundi bakhe izinto ezabancedayo sibili. Lokho akutshoyo kuyasinceda lathi lamuhla.
