Chaza ukuthi isivumelwano yisethembiso esiphakathi komuntu noBaba oseZulwini. Njengoba sizama ukugcina izethembiso zethu kuNkulunkulu, uNkulunkulu wethembisa ukusibusisa. Bhala ebhodini ukuthi Izethembiso Zami kuNkulunkulu nokuthi Zethembiso zikaNkulunkulu Kimi. Fundani ndawonye uMosiya 18:10, 13 nakwi Mfundiso neziVumelwano 20:37, bese usiza abantwana ukuba benze uhlu lwezethembiso abazithola ngaphansi kwezihloko ezifanele.

Isithombe

umfana ebhabhadiswa

Mema umuntu osanda kubhabhadiswa futhi waqiniswa ukuba eze ekilasini azokwabelana nani ukuthi kwakunjani ukuqiniswa. Kuchaza ukuthini kulomuntu ukuba yilungu leBandla likaJesu Kristu labaNgcwele beziNsuku zokuGcina? Siza abantwana ukuba bacabange ngezindlela abangagcina ngazo izivumelwano zabo zombhabhadiso njengamalungu eBandla (njengokusebenzela abanye, ukumema abanye ukuba bafunde kabanzi ngoJesu, wukukhuleka emihlanganweni, kanye nokunye). Abelana ngokuthi ukwenza lezi zinto kukusize kanjani ukuba uzwe injabulo yokuba yilungu leBandla likaKristu.

­ Xoxa indaba ka-Alima nabantu bakhe bebhabhadiswa (bheka uMosiya 18:1-17).

Buyekeza uMosiya 18; 8–9 bese umema abantwana ukuba benze izenzo zokubasiza ukuba bakhumbule izinto abantu ababezimisele ukuzenza njengamalungu ebandla likaJesu Kristu. Abelana ngolwazi onalo lapho ubone khona amalungu eBandla esebenza ngalezi zindlela.

Funda iMfundiso neziVumelwano 33:15, bese ucela abantwana ukuba balalele isipho esikhethekile uBaba oseZulwini asipha sona lapho sibhabhadiswa futhi siqiniswa. Ukubasiza ukuba bafunde ngokwengeziwe ngokuthi singabasiza kanjani isipho sikaMoya oNgcwele buyekezani ndawonye ku Johane 14:26; abaseGalathiya 5;22–23; 2 Nefi 32:5; 3 Nefi 27:20 ­

Ngaphambi kweKilasi, cela umzali woyedwa noma ngaphezulu wabantwana ukuba babelane ngokuthi babusiswe kanjani ngenxa yokuthi banesipho sikaMoya oNgcwele. Ubasiza kanjani? Balizwa kanjani izwi Lakhe?

Siza abantwana bacabange ngezindlela ezahlukene esingakhuluma ngazo nomngani ohlala kude, njengokubhala incwadi, ukuthumela i-imeyili, noma ukukhuluma ocingweni. Bafundise ukuthi uBaba oseZulwini angakhuluma nathi ngoMoya oNgcwele. ­

Abelana ngolwazi lapho uMoya oNgcwele ukhuluma nawe khona, noma ngemicabango engqondweni yakho noma ngomuzwa osenhliziyweni yakho (bheka IMfundiso neziVumelwano 6:22–23; 8:2–3 Fakaza ebantwaneni ukuthi uMoya oNgcwele ungabasiza nabo ngezindlela ezifanayo.

Siza abantwana bacabange ngezikhathi okungenzeka ukuthi bawuzwa uMoya–isibonelo, lapho becula iculo ngoMsindisi noma lapho benzela abanye okuthile okuhle. Basize bakwazi ukuqaphela umuzwa wokomoya olethwa nguMoya oNgcwele. Ucabanga ukuthi kungani uMoya oNgcwele usinika leyomizwa na? Siza abantwana ukuba bacabange ngezinto okumele sizenze ukuze sizwe uMoya oNgcwele ukhuluma nathi. Xoxa ngokwenzayo ukuze umuzwe uMoya ngokucacile.

­ Bacele bakhombe esithombeni izinto ezicatshangwa abantu. Fundela abantwana izingxenye eziku 3 Nefi18:1–12. Yini esingayenza ukukhumbula uJesu Kristu ngesikhathi sesidlo esingcwele na?

Cela abantwana ukuba bakutshele ngezinye zezinto okumele bakhumbule njalo ukuzenza, njengokubopha izicathulo noma ukuwasha izandla zabo ngaphambi kokuthi badle. Kubaluleke ngani ukuzikhumbula lezinto na? Fundela abantwana ku Moroni 4:3 , bese uyabamema ukuba balalele lokho esithembisa ukukukhumbula njalo uma samukela isidlo esingcwele. Kubaluleke ngani ukumkhumbula uJesu Kristu? Siza abantwana baqonde ukuthi isinkwa namanzi esidlo esingcwele kusisiza kanjani ukuba sikhumbule lokho uJesu asenzele kona (bheka uMoroni 4:3; 5:2).

Bhala ebhodini “Ngiyethembisa uku …” Fundela abantwana imikhuleko yesidlo esingcwele (bheka IMfundiso neziVumelwano 20:77, 79). Lapho bezwa isethembiso esisenza kuNkulunkulu, yima kancane ubasize baqedele umusho ebhodini ngesethembiso abasizwile. Basize baqonde ukuthi uma samukela isidlo esingcwele, senza isethembiso esifanayo nalesi esasenza mhla sibhabhadiswa.

Kusho ukuthini ukubizwa ngegama likaJesu Kristu na? Ukusiza abantwana baphendule lombuzo, abelana ngesibonelo sento esifaka kuyo amagama ethu. Kungani sifaka amagama ethu kulezi zinto? Kungani uJesu Kristu engafuna ukufaka igama lakhe phezu kwethu? Cabanga ngokwabelana ngalencazelo esuka kuMongameli Russel M. Nelson: “Ukubizwa ngegama likaMsindisi, kubandakanya ukumemezela nokufakaza kwabanye―ngezenzo nangamazwi ethu―ukuthi uJesu unguKristu.” (“The Correct Name of the Church,” Liahona, kaNovember 2018, 88).

Siza abantwana baqaphele izibusiso abazitholayo ngenxa yobuPristi. ­

Cabanga ngokubhala uhlu lwalezi zibusiso ebhodini. Kungani lezibusiso zibalulekile kithi? Fakaza ngokuthi lezi zibusiso ziza kithi ngenxa kaJesu Kristu namandla obupristi Bakhe.

Bhala lezi zihloko ezilandelayo ebhodini: Amandla kaNkulunkulu nesithi Amandla kaNkulunkulu negunya elinikwe amadoda emhlabeni. Cela abantwana babeke izithombe ngaphansi kwesihloko sokuqala esisisiza ukuba siqonde indlela uNkulunkulu asebenzise ngayo amandla Akhe ukuze asibusise, njengokudala umhlaba, ukusihola nokusiqondisa, esikhombisa ukuthi uyasithanda futhi uyasazi, futhi ezwa futhi ephendule imithandazo yethu. Bacele babeke izithombe ngaphansi kwesihloko sesibili esizosisiza ukuba siqonde ukuthi amadoda afanelekileyo emhlabeni awasebenzisa kanjani amandla kaNkulunkulu negunya lokusibusisa, njengokubusisa abagulayo, ukubhabhadisa, ukuqinisa, ukusingatha isidlo esingcwele, nokuboshwa kwemindeni ethempelini. Abelana ngokuthi kungani unokubonga ngobuPristi nezibusiso ezilethwa yibo.

Enye yezindlela ezinkulu esithola ngazo izibusiso zamandla kaNkulunkulu ezimpilweni zethu yizimiso zobupristi (bheka IMfundiso neziVumelwano 84:20). Ukusiza abantwana bafunde ngaleliqiniso, ungabhala loluhlu olulandelayo lwemibhalo engcwele ebhodini: 3 Nefi 11:21–26, 33 (umbhabhadiso); uMoroni 2 (ukuqiniswa); uMoroni 4–5 (isidlo esingcwele). Umntwana, ngamunye angakhetha eyodwa yalezi zindinyana bese ekhomba isimiso okukhulunywa ngaso. Mema abantwana ukuba babelane ngokuthi babusiswe kanjani siqu ngokuthola izimiso zobupristi.

Siza abantwana baqonde ukuthi bazowathola amandla kuNkulunkulu lapho bebhabhadiswa futhi begcina izivumelwano zabo zombhabhadiso. Babuze abantwana ukuthi angabasiza kanjani lamandla.

Funda nabantwana encwadini NgokukaMarku 3:14–15, bese ubakhombisa isithombe sesenzakalo okukhulunywa ngaso lapho. Buza abantwana ukuthi sebake bambona yini umuntu egcotshelwa isikhundla sobupristi noma ahlukaniselwa ubizo (noma umtshele ngosukubonile wena). Kufana kanjani lokho nalokhu uMsindisi akwenza nabaPostoli bakhe na? Siza abantwana babhale uhlu ebhodini izikhundla zobupristi noma ubizo olunganikwa amalungu eBandla, njengomfundisi noma umholi enhlanganweni. Eduze kwesikhundla noma ubizo, ungabhala into lowo onaleso sikhundla noma ubizo anegunya lokukwenza. Tshela abantwana ukuthi ukuhlukaniswa ngumuntu ngaphansi kokuqondiswa yizihluthulelo zobupristi kwakusiza kanjani ukuze ukwazi ukusebenza.

Mema abantwana ukuba bacabange ngento oyidingela isihluthulelo, njenge moto noma isicabha semoto. Kwenzekani uma ungenaso isihluthulelo? Fundani ndawonye IMfundiso neziVumelwano 65:42, bese nifakaza ngokubaluleka bokuba nezihluthulelo zobupristi emhlabeni. ­ ­

Cela umuntu osewadini lakho ophethe izihluthulelo zobupristi ukuba eze ekilasini azokwabelana nabantwana ukuthi kuchaza ukuthini ukuphatha izihluthulelo zobupristi. Mmeme ukuba achaze ngezibopho zakhe. Yiziphi izingxenye zomsebenzi weNkosi aziholayo? Ngabe uMsindisi umsiza kanjani na?

Veza isithombe esisodwa noma eziningi zethempeli. Buza abantwana ukuthi yini eyenza ithempeli libe yindawo ekhethekileyo. Phawula ukuthi ethempeleni ngalinye kukhona lombhalo: “Wahlukaniselwe uJehova: Indlu yeNkosi.” Buza abantwana ukuthi bacabanga ukuthi “Wahlukaniselwe uJehova” kungase kusho ukuthini. Kungani ithempeli libizwa ngendlu yeNkosi na? Kusifundisani lokhu ngethempeli na? Uma kukhona abantwana abake baya ethempelini, nabo bangabelana ngokuthi bazizwa kanjani ngesikhathi belapho. Uma uke waya ethempelini, abelana ngokuthi wabuzwa kanjani ubukhona beNkosi laphaya, bese uxoxa ngokuthi kungani ithempeli liyindawo engcwele kuwe.

Fundani ndawonyeIMfundiso neziVumelwano 97:15–17. Cela abantwana ukuba babheke lokho iNkosi ekulindele kulabo abangena endlini Yayo engcwele. Kungani sidinga ukufaneleka ukungena endlini yakhe na? Njengengxenye yalengxoxo, khuluma nabantwana mayelana nezimvume zokungena ethempelini kubandakanya nokuthi itholwa kanjani. Ungamema oyilungu lobuBhishobhi ukuba abelane nabo ukuthi injani ingxoxiswano yemvume yokungena ethempelini nemibuzo ebuzwa kuyo.

Cela abantwana ukuba bakusize ngokubuyekeza isivumelwano esisenza noNkulunkulu lapho sibhabhadiswa nesisivuselelayo uma sithatha isidlo esingcwele (bheka uMosiya 18:10; IMfundiso neziVumelwano 20:77, 79). Khombisa isithombe sethempeli bese uyachaza ukuthi uBaba oseZulwini unezibusiso eziningi Afuna ukusinika zona ethempelini.

Dweba isango eliholela endleleni. Buza abantwana ukuthi kungani bacabange ukuthi kuyasiza ukubakhona kwendlela yokuhamba. Fundani ndawonye ku 2 Nefi 31: 17–20, lapho uNefi eqhathanisa isivumelwano sombhabhadiso nesango futhi esimema ukuba siqhubeke nokuhamba endleleni ngemva kombhabhadiso. Ziningi izivumelwano okufanele zenziwe emva kombhabhadiso, kubandakanya nezivumelwano ezenziwa ethempelini. Chaza ukuthi uMongameli uNelson lendlela uyibize “ngendlela yesivumelwano.”

Xoxa ngesikhathi lapho kukhona owakwenzela into owawungeke ukwazi ukuzenzela yona wena. Mema abantwana ukuba babelane ngolwazi olufanayo. Chaza ngokuthi uma siya ethempelini, singathola izimiso ezingcwele ezinjengombhabhadiso wabanye asebafa. Sifana kanjani noJesu lapho senza umsebenzi wabafileyo na? Usenzeleni loku ebesingekwazi thina ukuzenzela kona na?

Mema umuntu omusha oyedwa noma ngaphezulu asebebhabhadiselwe okhokho babo ukuba babelane ngasebedlule kukho. Babuze ukuthi bekunjani ethempelini. Bakhuthaze ukuba babelane ngokuthi bazizwe kanjani lapho benzela okhokho babo lomsebenzi.

Dweba isihlahla ebhodini, kubandakanya izimpande namagatsha. Cela abantwana ukuba bacabange ukuthi ufana kanjani umndeni nesihlahla. Bhala isithikithana ezimpandeni Amadlozi, bhala isithikithana emaGatsheni Isizukulwane, bese ubhala isithikithana esiqwini sesihlahla Wena. Fundani ndawonye lomusho osuselwa kwi Mfundiso neziVumelwano 128:18: “ngokuba thina ngaphandle kwabo[okhokho bethu] ngeke senziwe sipheleliswe; noma bona ngaphandle kwethu ngeke benziwe bapheleliswe.” Buza imibuzo efana nale elandelayo: Ngabe sibadingelani okhokho bethu na? Ngabe sisidingelani isizukulwane sethu na? Basisize kanjani abazali bethu, ogogo nomkhulu, kanye nabanye okhokho na? Mema abantwana ukuba bacinge okusele kwe IMfundiso neziVumelwano 128:18 umusho ochaza ngokuthi singabasiza kanjani okhokho bethu.

Cabanga ngokusebenza nabazali bomntwana ngamunye ukuthola igama likakhokho ukuze umntwana aliyise ethempelini (bheka ku FamilySearch.org).
