- Kaloku ngoKrestu uThixo wayelixolelanisa naye ngokwakhe ihlabathi, engasababeki tyala abantu ngezono zabo, waza wasiphathisa umsebenzi woxolelaniso.
- Kambe intshutshiso yomfikela nawuphi na umKrestu ofuna ukuhlala esoyika iNkosi.
- Akukho namnye umntu owakha wambona uThixo. Abantu bamazi uThixo ngokumaziswa nguNyana okukuphela kwakhe, yena okwanguThixo, ohlala ehleli esenyongweni kuYise.
- Ukususela ngoko uYesu washumayela esithi: “Guqukani, kuba ulawulo lukaThixo lusemnyango.”
- Njengoko ukufa kweza ngomntu, ngokukwanjalo novuko lwabafileyo luza kwangomntu.
- Waza uYesu wawaphendula wathi: “Le mfundiso ndiyifundisayo asiyoyam, koko ivela kulowo undithumileyo.”
- Saphendula isithunywa sathi kuye: “UMoya oyiNgcwele uya kuhlela kuwe, athi amandla kaThixo uPhezukonke akufukamele. Kungoko loo mntwana ungcwele uya kuzalwa nguwe kuya kuthiwa nguNyana kaThixo.”
- Wathi kubo: “Ndilandeleni; ndonenza abalobi babantu.”
- UYesu wasibizela kuye isihlwele kwanabafundi bakhe, wathi kubo: “Othanda ukundilandela makazincame, awuthwale umnqamlezo wakhe, andilandele.”
- Inkulu ngokungenambaliso imfihlelo yonqulo lwethu. Kaloku uKrestu Yesu:
Wavela ngesimo sobuntu
waza wangqinelwa nguMoya,
wabonwa zizithunywa zezulu.
Washunyayelwa ezizweni,
wamkelwa lihlabathi,
waza wawongwa ezulwini. - INkosi uYesu Krestu mayibe sisikrweqe senu, ningasilungiseleli isimo senu esonakeleyo ukuze nanelise iinkanuko zaso.
- UYesu ke waphuma nabafundi bakhe, wabasa ngaseBhetani; waza waphakamisa izandla zakhe, wabasikelela. Kwathi esabasikelela, wahlukana nabo, wanyuswa wasiwa ezulwini.
- Njengoko anyuselwe ewongeni kuThixo, wamkele uMoya oyiNgcwele, lowo wathenjiswayo nguYise. Le nto ke niyibonayo niyivayo ngoku kukugalelwa kwaloo Moya kuthi.
- Bawo, wena akuxakwa nto. Yisuse kum le ntlungu. Noko ke, makungabi kokuthandwa ndim, makube kukuthanda kwakho.
- Abe njengaye uNyana woLuntu, yena ongezanga kukhonzwa, koko oweza kukhonza nokuncama ubomi bakhe bube yintlawulelo yokukhulula abaninzi.
- Uthembekile uThixo, yena wanibizayo ukuba nibe nobudlelane noNyana wakhe uYesu Krestu iNkosi yethu.
- Ngako ke finyezani umbhinqo, nibaze iingqondo, ningathembi nanye into ngaphandle kwesisa seentsikelelo eziza kuza noYesu ukufika kwakhe.
- Wasihlangula egunyeni lobumnyama, waza wasifudusela ekulawulweni nguNyana wakhe oyintanda, lo sifumene kuye inkululeko nokuxolelwa kwezono.
- Ngoko ke, nani zintlanga, anisengabo abasemzini neendwendwe. Niyimilowo nabantu bakaThixo; nilusapho lukaThixo. Nani ke nakhelwe phezu kwesiseko sabathunywa nabashumayeli, kodwa ke elona litye lesiseko nguYesu Krestu ngokwakhe.
- Ngoko ke makungabikho bani unixoxisayo ngento emaniyitye, okanye niyisele, nangemisitho yokuthwasa kwenyanga neyoMhla wokuPhumla. Ezi zinto zazisisithunzi nje sento eyayilindelekile – inkqu yayo nguKrestu.
- Yathi ke yona kubo: “Musani ukumangaliseka. Nifuna uYesu umNazarete, owayebethelelwe emnqamlezweni. Uvukile; akakho apha. Nantsi indawo abebembeke kuyo.”
- Konke oku kwênzeka ukuze lizaliseke ilizwi leNkosi elathethwa ngumshumayeli, esithi: “Niyabona, intombi le iya kumitha, izale unyana, abizwe ngokuba nguImanuweli” (oko kukuthi “uThixo unathi”).
- UYesu wathi kuye: “Ukuba ufuna ukufeza konke ngokupheleleyo, hamba uye kuzithengisa zonke izinto onazo, wabele amahlwempu imali leyo; woba nobutyebi ezulwini; uze kum ke, undilandele.”
- Isithunywa ke sathi kuye: “Musa ukoyika, Mariya, kuba uThixo ukwenzela isisa. Uyabona, uza kumitha, uzale unyana, umthiye igama elinguYesu.”
- Wathatha isonka ke, wabulela, wasiqhekeza, wabanika esithi: “Ngumzimba wam lo onikelwa ngenxa yenu. Oku kwenzeleni ukundikhumbula.”
