Izithembiso eziseBhayibhelini azifani nezinto eziphuma emilonyeni yabantu. Izithembiso eziseBhayibhelini zivela kuNkulunkulu. Nazi izizathu ezenza kubaluleke kakhulu lokho:

UNkulunkulu uthembekile. IBhayibheli lithi unguNkulunkulu “ongenakuqamba amanga.” (Thithu 1:2) Ngaphezu kwalokho, nguNkulunkulu kuphela okwazi ukubikezela ikusasa. (Isaya 46:10) IBhayibheli linezibonelo eziningi kakhulu ezisifundisa ukuthi into uNkulunkulu ayibikezelayo ayilokothi ingenzeki. Ukuze ufunde kabanzi, buka ividiyo ethi Singaqiniseka Kanjani Ukuthi IBhayibheli Liyiqiniso?

Ngesikhathi uJesu esesemhlabeni, welapha abagulayo, wondla abalambile, walawula isimo sezulu waze wavusa ngisho nabafile. (Marku 4:39; 6:41-44; Luka 4:40; Johane 11:43, 44) Ngokwenza lokho, waveza izinto azozenza lapho eseyiNkosi yoMbuso kaNkulunkulu.
