Ukukholwa

1Ukukholwa ke kukuqiniseka ngezinto esinethemba lazo; kukwakukuqiniseka nangobukho bezinto esingaziboniyo. 2Abantu bamandulo bagqwesa ngenxa yokuthembela kwabo kuThixo.

3Ngokholo siyaqonda ukuba indalo yavela ngelizwi likaThixo, zaza izinto ezibonakalayo zabakho kungekho nto ibonakalayo adala ngayo.

4Ngokholo lagqwesa kuThixo elika-Abheli idini kunelikaKayin. Ngokholo uAbheli wamkelwa nguThixo waba lilungisa, kuba uThixo ngokwakhe wakholiswa ngumnikelo wakhe. Ngako ukukholwa kwakhe ke, naxa afileyo nje uAbheli, usathetha.

5Ngokholo uInoki wathwetyulwa engakhange afe. *IziBhalo zithi: “Akazange aziwe bani apho akhoyo, kuba wayethathwe nguThixo.” Futhi ziyangqina iziBhalo ukuba uInoki wamkholisa uThixo ngaphambi kokuba athathwe. 6Lungekho ke ukholo akukho ukumkholisa uThixo. Kaloku wonke ubani ozayo kuye kufuneka akholwe ukuba ukho uThixo, yaye uyabavuza abo bamlangazelelayo.

KUMAHEBHERE 11:1-6XHO96Vula kumfundi weBhayibhile

Before Enoch was taken, he was commended as One who pleased God. He walked completely with God, His dependence on God and reliance on God was total. His conviction and assurance about God’s goodness was based on his faith in God. Poet and writer Rabindranath Tagore says: Faith is the bird that feels the light when the dawn is still dark. Some birds still continue to sing up until the time the last ray of light disappears. They sing through the dusk and into the dark because they know their Creator cares for them. And often they will begin to sing before there is daylight. It is not light enough for them to begin looking for food yet, Yet they can sing for they know that God will provide. Lord, may we be like the birds of the air.
