By Kwesinye isikhathi kuzwakala engathi sihlezi silwa nesono futhi akukho la sifika khona. Kodwa kuyimanje vele, ukulwa nesono nokungafinyeleli ndawo kungcono kakhulu kunalokho okwakwenzeka ngaphambi kokuthi uNkulunkulu asisindise. Sidinga ukulokhu siqhubekile silwa nesono ukuze sizoba ngcwele, kodwa lapho impi ibonakala idlonga kakhulu kunobungcwele, ungalahli ithemba, ngoba kusuke kusangcono ngoba sisaqhubeka siyalwa. Uma sima singalwi, lapho ke lokho okwumkhuba wesono kubanga umonakalo omkhulu kwimiphefumulo yethu.
Thatha njengesibonelo lokho umkhuba ovamile wesono owakwenza kuKhayini, uzenzela umathanda kuye. Konke kwaqala ngomonakalo omncane ‘kugqozi lwakhe’( Genesisi 4:5). Ngisho noNkulunkulu wangenelela ngokululeka okuza ngeBhayibheli ( uGenesisi 4:6-7)! Kodwa ukuyekelela impi nesono, isono saholela uKhayini ekwenzeni esinye isono ( Genesisi 4:8). Kwaphinda futhi, uNkulunkulu wangenelela ngethuba lokuthi aphenduke, kodwa uKhayini wavele wakudelela lokho kuboniswa ( Genesisi 4:9). Ngaleyondlela isono samholela ekujezisweni ( Genesisi 4:8).
Umkhuba ovamile wesono ukuhlezi sithatha ukushisekela okuthile sikuthande bese sikusebenzisa ukwenza olunye uhlobo lwezono. Umkhuba ovamile wesono ukuziba ukwelulekwa ngisho nokuboniswa. Isono sihlezi sizophetha ngesiphithiphithi. (ekaJakobe 1:14-15)
Kepha yilowo nalowo muntu ulingwa, ahuhwe yizinkanuko zakhe, futhi ahuheke. Phela uma inkanuko isibambile, izala isono; nesono uma sesiphelelisiwe, sizala ukufa.
ekaJakobe 1:14-15
Yilwa nesono, ngoba ngisho kungathiwa uzwa engathi awuyi ndawo, kodwa kumanje awukho phakathi kwisiphithiphithi nokubhubha isono esihlezi sikubanga.
Nganquma, ukungazinikeli, noma ngiyekelele, impi yami nenkohlakalo, ngisho kungathiwa angiphumeleli kangakanani.
