Printed Edition

UMbuso kaNkulunkulu waqala ukubusa ezulwini ngonyaka ka-1914. Izinsuku zokugcina zokubusa kwabantu nazo zaqala ngaleso sikhathi. Sazi kanjani? Sizobheka lokho iBhayibheli elakubikezela, nalokho okwenzekayo emhlabeni nendlela abantu abebelokhu beziphatha ngayo kusukela ngo-1914.

1. Yini eyabikezelwa iBhayibheli?

Incwadi yeBhayibheli kaDaniyeli yabikezela ukuthi uMbuso kaNkulunkulu wawuyoqala ukubusa ekupheleni kwenkathi ebizwa ngokuthi “izikhathi eziyisikhombisa.” (Daniyeli 4:16, 17) Emakhulwini eminyaka kamuva, uJesu wabiza inkathi efanayo ngokuthi “izikhathi ezimisiwe zezizwe” futhi wafundisa ukuthi yayingakapheli. (Luka 21:24) Njengoba sizobona, lezo zikhathi eziyisikhombisa zaphela ngonyaka ka-1914.

2. Yini eyenzekayo emhlabeni futhi abantu bebelokhu beziphatha kanjani kusukela ngo-1914?

Abafundi bakaJesu bambuza: “Luyoba yini uphawu lokuba khona kwakho nolwesiphelo sesimiso sezinto?” (Mathewu 24:3) Empendulweni yakhe, uJesu wabikezela izinto eziningi ezaziyokwenzeka ngemva kokuba eseqale ukubusa ezulwini njengeNkosi yoMbuso kaNkulunkulu. Ezinye zazo kwakuyoba izimpi, ukusweleka kokudla nokuzamazama komhlaba. (Funda uMathewu 24:7.) IBhayibheli labikezela nokuthi indlela abantu ababeyoziphatha ngayo “ezinsukwini zokugcina” yayiyokwenza ukuphila kube ‘nzima ukubhekana nako.’ (2 Thimothewu 3:1-5) Zonke lezi zinto ziye zabonakala ngokucacile kusukela ngo-1914.

3. Selokhu kuqale ukubusa uMbuso kaNkulunkulu, kungani izimo ziyezaba zimbi kangaka emhlabeni?

Ngemva nje kokuba uJesu ebe yiNkosi yoMbuso kaNkulunkulu, walwa noSathane namademoni ezulwini. USathane wahlulwa kuleyo mpi. IBhayibheli lithi “waphonswa phansi emhlabeni, nezingelosi zakhe zaphonswa phansi kanye naye.” (IsAmbulo 12:9, 10, 12) USathane uthukuthele kakhulu ngoba uyazi ukuthi uzobhujiswa. Ngakho, ubangela ubuhlungu nokuhlupheka emhlabeni wonke. Yingakho izimo zizimbi kangaka emhlabeni! UMbuso kaNkulunkulu uzozixazulula zonke lezi zinkinga.
