Amazwi KaNkulunkulu Abalulekile:
Esikhathini ngasinye, uNkulunkulu uzoqala umsebenzi omusha, futhi esikhathini ngasinye, kuzoba nesiqalo esisha kubantu. Uma umuntu elandela iqiniso lokuthi "uJehova nguNkulunkulu" futhi "uJesu nguKristu," okungamaqiniso asebenza kuphela enkathini eyodwa, umuntu-ke akasoze ahambisana nomsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele, futhi uyohlala engakwazi ukuzuza umsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele. Noma ngabe uNkulunkulu usebenza kanjani, umuntu ulandela ngaphandle kokungabaza, futhi ulandela eduze. Ngale ndlela, umuntu ubengasuswa kanjani uMoya ONgcwele? Noma ngabe wenzani uNkulunkulu, inqobo uma umuntu enesiqiniseko sokuthi umsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele, futhi ehambisana nomsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele ngaphandle kokunqikaza, futhi ezama ukuhlangabezana nezidingo zikaNkulunkulu, pho angajeziswa kanjani? Umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu awukaze ume, izinyathelo zakhe azikaze zime, futhi ngaphambi kokuqeda umsebenzi Wakhe wokuphatha, ubelokhu ematasa, futhi akami. Kodwa umuntu wehlukile: Njengoba ethole ingxenyana yomsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele, uwuphatha sengathi awusoze waguquka; esethole ulwazi oluncane, akaqhubekeli phambili ukuze alandele ezinyathelweni zomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu omusha; esebone ingxenyana yomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, ubheka uNkulunkulu ngokushesha njengesithombe esibazwe ngokhuni, futhi ukholwa ukuthi uNkulunkulu uyohlala eyilesi simo asibona phambi kwakhe, ukuthi sasinje kudala futhi siyoba njalo nangesikhathi esizayo; esethole ulwazi olungatheni, umuntu uziqhenya kangangoba uyazikhohlwa futhi aqale ukumemezela ngesimo nobukhona bukaNkulunkulu okungekho nhlobo; futhi ebambelele esigabeni esisodwa sikaMoya oNgcwele, noma ngabe wuhlobo luni lomuntu olumemezela umsebenzi omusha kaNkulunkulu, umuntu akawamukeli. Laba ngabantu abangeke bakwazi ukwamukela umsebenzi omusha kaMoya oNgcwele; futhi balukhuni; futhi abakwazi ukwamukela izinto ezintsha. Abantu balolo hlobo bakholwa kuNkulunkulu kodwa abamamukeli uNkulunkulu. Umuntu ukholwa ukuthi ama-Israyeli ayenephutha "ngokukholwa kuJehova bese engakholwa kuJesu," kodwa abantu abaningi babamba iqhaza kulokhu "ukukholwa kuJehova bachithe uJesu" futhi "balangazela ukubuya kukaMesiya, kodwa baphikisa uMesiya obizwa ngokuthi uJesu." Akumangazi-ke ukuthi abantu basaphila ngaphansi kukaSathane emuva kokwamukela isigaba esisodwa somsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele, futhi abakazitholi izibusiso zikaNkulunkulu. Lokhu akudalwa ukuhlubuka komuntu? AmaKristu emhlabeni jikelele angahambisananga nomsebenzi omusha wanamuhla abambelele enkolweni yokuthi asenhlanhleni, ukuthi uNkulunkulu uzofeza izifiso zabo ngazinye. Nokho abakwazi ukusho baqiniseke ukuthi kungani uNkulunkulu ezobayisa ezulwini lesithathu, futhi abanasiqiniseko ngokuthi uJesu uzobalanda egibele ifu elimhlophe, futhi bengesho nakancane ngokuqiniseka ukuthi uJesu uzofika ngempela na egibele phezu kwefu elimhlophe ngalolo suku abalucabangayo. Bonke balangazele, futhi badidekile; nabo uqobo abazi nokuthi ngabe uNkulunkulu uzothatha omunye nomunye wabo, ingcosane yabantu abehlukene, bakuwo wonke amahlelo. Umsebenzi owenziwa uNkulunkulu manje, inkathi yamanje, intando kaNkulunkulu— abaqondi kutho kulokhu, futhi akukho okunye abangakwenza ngaphandle kokubala izinsuku ngeminwe yabo. Yilabo kuphela abalandela ezinyathelweni zeMvana kuze kube sekugcineni abayokwazi ukuthola izibusiso zokugcina, kanti labo bantu “abahlakaniphile,” abangakwazi ukulandela kuze kube sekugcineni kepha bekholwa ukuthi bakuzuze konke, ngeke bakwazi ukubona ukuvela kukaNkulunkulu. Bonke bakholwa ukuthi bangabantu abakhaliphe kakhulu emhlabeni, futhi bayakunqamula ukuqhubeka kokuthuthukisa umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ngaphandle kwesizathu, futhi kubukeka sengathi bakholwa ngokugcwele ukuthi uNkulunkulu uzobayisa ezulwini, lapho "abathembeke kuNkulunkulu kakhulu, abalandela uNkulunkulu, abalandela amazwi kaNkulunkulu." Noma "bethembeke ngokweqile" amazwini akhulunywe uNkulunkulu, amazwi abo nezenzo kusabonakala kunyanyisa kakhulu ngoba kuphikisana nomsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele, futhi benza inkohliso nobubi. Labo abangalandeli kuze kube sekugcineni, abasilelayo emsebenzini kaMoya oNgcwele, futhi ababambelela emsebenzini omdala abahlulekanga nje ukugcwalisa ukwethembeka kuNkulunkulu kuphela, kodwa, baphenduke labo abaphikisana noNkulunkulu, baba yilabo abachitha isikhathi esisha, futhi abazojeziswa. Ngabe bakhona abadabukisa ngaphezu kwabo?
