Indlela Umoya Osiza Ngayo

 9. (a) Umoya ongcwele usebenza kanjani ‘njengomsizi’? (b) Sazi kanjani ukuthi umoya ongcwele awuyena umuntu? (Bheka umbhalo waphansi.)

⁹ UJesu Kristu wabiza umoya ongcwele ngokuthi “umsizi.” Ngokwesibonelo, watshela abalandeli bakhe: “Ngiyakucela kuBaba aniphe omunye uMduduzi [“umsizi,” NW] wokuba ahlale kini phakade, uMoya weqiniso, izwe elingemamukele, ngokuba lingamboni, lingamazi; nina niyamazi yena, ngokuba uhlala nani, uyakuba-kini.” Phakathi kokunye, lowo ‘msizi’ wawuyoba umfundisi, ngoba uKristu wathembisa: “[Umsizi], uMoya oNgcwele, uBaba ayakumthumela egameni lami uyakunifundisa konke, anikhumbuze konke enginitshelé khona.” Umoya futhi wawuyofakaza ngoKristu, futhi waqinisekisa abafundi bakhe: “Kunilungele ukuba ngimuke; ngokuba uma ngingamuki, [umsizi] kayikuza kini; kepha uma ngimuka, ngiyakumthumela kini.”—Johane 14:16, 17, 26; 15:26; 16:7.a

10. Umoya ongcwele uye wazibonakalisa ngaziphi izindlela ungumsizi?

¹⁰ Ngosuku lwePentekoste lika-33 C.E., esezulwini, uJesu wathululela phezu kwabalandeli bakhe umoya ongcwele owawuthenjisiwe. (IzEnzo 1:4, 5; 2:1-11) Njengomsizi, umoya wabanikeza ukuyiqonda ngokwengeziwe intando kaNkulunkulu nenjongo yakhe futhi wabavulela iZwi lakhe lesiprofetho. (1 Korinte 2:10-16; Kolose 1:9, 10; Heberu 9:8-10) Lowomsizi futhi wanikeza abafundi bakaJesu amandla okuba ofakazi kuwo wonke umhlaba. (Luka 24:49; IzEnzo 1:8; Efesu 3:5, 6) Namuhla, umoya ongcwele ungasiza umKristu ozinikezele ukuba akhule ngolwazi uma ezenza atholakale emalungiselelweni angokomoya enziwa uNkulunkulu ‘ngenceku ethembekileyo neqondayo.’ (Mathewu 24:45-47) Umoya kaNkulunkulu unganikeza usizo ngokunikeza isibindi namandla adingekayo okunikeza ubufakazi njengenye yezinceku zikaJehova. (Mathewu 10:19, 20; IzEnzo 4:29-31) Nokho, umoya ongcwele usiza futhi abantu bakaNkulunkulu nangezinye izindlela.
