UThixo umisele usuku lokunqula abantu abakholwayo kuye.

“Khumbula umhla weSabatha, ukuba uwungcwalise.”Eks 20:8

Umhla weSabatha ngumqondiso phakathi koThixo nabantu bakhe.Yimini yokuba uThixo enze abantu bakhe babe ngcwele (Hez 20:12).Ngoko ke, abantu bakaThixo bafanele ukuwugcina umhla weSabatha uThixo awumiseleyo njengosuku lwenkonzo.

ISabatha ngumhla uThixo awadala ngawo amazulu nomhlaba kangangeentsuku ezintandathu waza waphumla ngomhla wesixhenxe. (Genesis 2:3 )

Umhla wesixhenxe iSabatha lusuku lwesikhumbuzo samandla okudala kaThixo. Ngoko ke, loluphi usuku lweveki oluyimini yesixhenxe?NgeCawe: usuku lokuqala lweveki NgoMgqibelo: usuku lwesixhenxe evekini Izichazi-magama zirekhoda ukuba usuku lwesixhenxe nguMgqibelo.Xa sibona ikhalenda usuku lwesixhenxe iSabatha, nguMgqibelo. IBhayibhile ithi uYesu wavuswa ekufeni ngomhla wokuqala weveki (Marko 16:9).

Kwale ndinyana, iBhayibhile Entsha Elungileyo ithi uYesu wavuka ngeCawa. ( Marko 16:9 ) Ngoko ke, ngowuphi umhla weveki oyiSabatha? ISabatha ingoMgqibelo. Iincwadi zamaKatolika nazo ziyangqina ukuba umhla weSabatha nguMgqibelo.

“IZibhalo ziyayinyanzelisa isikhumbuzo sonqulo sangoMgqibelo, usuku esingalungcwalisiyo.”

“Igama elithi iSabatha lithetha ukuphumla, kwaye nguMgqibelo umhla wesixhenxe weveki.”

NoYesu wayenqula ngeSabatha [ngoMgqibelo].

“Wafika eNazarete, . . . wangena ngokwesiko lakhe ngomhla wesabatha endlwini yesikhungu.” Luka 4:16

Emva kokuba uYesu enyukile, uMpostile uPawulosi naye wayenqula ngomhla weSabatha [uMgqibelo].

“Ngokwesiko ke likaPawulos wangena kuwo; waye iisabatha ezintathu exoxa nawo, ethabatha ezibhalweni, etyhila, . . . ”IZe 17:2

Kanye njengokuba uYesu nabafundi bakhe babewugcina umhla weSabatha [uMgqibelo], Abantu bakaThixo bafanele bawugcine umhla weSabatha [uMgqibelo] lowo wawunyulwe nguThixo.Umbutho Womsebenzi Welizwe iBandla likaThixo ligcina iSabatha yomhla wesixhenxe emiselwe nguThixo.
