Ena adavala madiresi apamwamba ndi Mtanda wokhala ndi zipsera m'chiuno kapena m'mawere. Ena anaoneka ngati “Yesu” wokongola kapena “Mariya” wosadzichepetsa.
Pomwe Cardinal Dolan adateteza madzulo, ndipo Bishopu Barron adateteza Kadinala Dolan, wolemba nkhani waku Britain Piers Morgan adayankhulira Akatolika ambiri:
Pali kusiyana kwakukulu pakati pakuwona zojambula zachipembedzo mokoma mtima komanso mwaulemu zitayikidwa mu nyumba yosungiramo zinthu zakale, ndikuziwona zikukhala pamutu wa anthu otchuka paphwando ... Zithunzi zambiri zinali zogonana kwambiri, zomwe mungaganize kuti sizabwino mutu wachipembedzo komanso wokhumudwitsa anthu ambiri omwe amazunzidwa mu Tchalitchi cha Katolika. —May 8, 2018; dailymail.co.uk
Koma Akatolika safuna Mr. Morgan kuti awawuze izi ndizosayenera. St. Paul adachita izi kalekale:
Pakuti chilungamo chigaŵana bwanji ndi chosalungama? Kapena pali kuyanjana kwanji pakati pa kuwala ndi mdima?… “Chifukwa chake, Tulukani kwa iwo, ndipo patukani, ati Ambuye,“ ndipo musakhudze kanthu kodetsa; pamenepo ndidzalandira inu, ndipo ndidzakhala kwa inu atate wanu, ndipo mudzakhala kwa ine ana amuna ndi akazi, atero Yehova wa makamu. 1 Akorinto 6: 14-18
Ngati chochitika ichi chinali chokhudza "chowonadi, kukongola, ndi ubwino," funso liyenera kufunsidwa: ndi amuna angati kumeneko omwe adapeza "chowonadi," kapena adapeza madiresi okhwima? Ndi amuna angati omwe adakopeka ndi "kukongola" kapena, m'malo mwake, akutuluka mabere? Ndi angati omwe adatsogozedwa ku "zabwino" zakuya, kapena kungoti, kuti ayese?
Chotsa maso ako kwa mkazi wowoneka bwino; osayang'ana kukongola komwe si kwako; kudzera mu kukongola kwa amayi ambiri awonongeke, chifukwa chowakonda chikuyaka ngati moto… sindidzaika pamaso panga chilichonse chonyansa. (Siraki 9: 8; Masalimo 101: 3)
Papa Francis alimbikitsadi akhristu kuti "apite limodzi" ndi ena, kupezeka kwa ena, kuti azimva kununkhira kwa nkhosa, titero kunena kwake. Sitingathe kulalikira kumbuyo kwa khoma. Koma monga analemba Paul VI:
Palibe kufalitsa koona ngati dzina, chiphunzitso, moyo, malonjezo, ufumu ndi chinsinsi cha Yesu waku Nazareti, Mwana wa Mulungu, sizikulengezedwa. —PAPA PAUL VI, Evangelii nuntiandi,n. 22; v Vatican.va
Kuchita nawo kwa Tchalitchi cha Katolika mu gala kumabweretsa funso loti: kodi tiyenera kupita ndi ena ku "chochitika chapafupi chauchimo"? Sitiyenera uthenga wathu komanso kuwonetsera kwa "chowonadi, kukongola, ndi
ubwino ”kukhala chinyezimiro cha Mlengi, osati mngelo wakugwa uja? Ndipo kodi mboni zathu siziyenera kukhala ngati "chizindikiro chotsutsana" - osanyengerera ndi dziko lapansi?
… Mpingo umakwaniritsa ntchito yake kufikira pamene, mogwirizana ndi Khristu, amakwaniritsa ntchito zake zonse molingana ndi chikondi cha Mbuye wake. —BENEDICT XVI, Wolemekezeka Wotsegulira Msonkhano Wachiwiri Wachisanu wa Aepiskopi aku Latin America ndi Caribbean, Meyi 13, 2007; v Vatican.va
Kodi Mulungu amatikonda bwanji? M'busa Wabwino adabwera kudzatitsogolera kumalo obiriwira komanso opatsa moyo, osati ma slanky skanky. Adabwera kudzatipulumutsa kuuchimo, osatha kutero.
Ngakhale zikuwoneka zomveka, mayendedwe auzimu ayenera kutsogolera ena kuyandikira kwambiri kwa Mulungu, mwa omwe timapeza ufulu wowona. Anthu ena amaganiza kuti ali ndi ufulu ngati angathe kupewa Mulungu; alephera kuwona kuti amakhalabe amasiye, opanda thandizo, opanda pokhala. Amasiya kukhala amwendamnjira ndikukhala obisalira, kumangoyenda palokha osafika kulikonse. Kuwatsagana nawo sikungakhale kopindulitsa ngati atakhala mtundu wa mankhwala omwe amathandizira kudzipangira kwawo ndikusiya kuyenda ndi Khristu kwa Atate. —PAPA FRANCIS, Evangelii Gaudium, N. 170
Ndiye, kodi anthu otchuka kumeneko anali 'kuyandikira kwambiri kwa Mulungu?' Mwina wojambula zisudzo Anne Hathaway, atavala "mwinjiro wofiira wopitilira muyeso," adafotokozera mwachidule madzulo; pamene wina papepala lofiira anafuula kuti, “Ukuwoneka ngati mngelo,” iye anayankha nati, “Zoonadi, ndikumva mdierekezi.” [2]wanjanji.com
Monga akhristu, tili ndi mwayi wopambana pa nthawi ino

PANDA NDIPONSO CHENJEZO
Masomphenya olalikira a Papa Francis ndikuti titengere Khristu; kuti tifufuze otayika ndi "kuwakopa" ku Uthenga Wabwino ndi chikondi cha Khristu.
… Amapereka chikondi. Ndipo chikondi ichi chimakusakirani ndikukuyembekezerani, inu omwe pakadali pano simukukhulupirira kapena muli kutali. Ndipo ichi ndi chikondi cha Mulungu. —POPA FRANCIS, Angelus, St. Peter's Square, pa 6 January, 2014; Independent Catholic News
Koma ngati sitikuwonetsa ena china “Njira,” ngati sitingalankhule “chowonadi” chosasinthika, ndipo ngati tonse sitikupereka ndikuwonetsa mkati mwathu "moyo" wokha, ndiye tikupanga chiyani?
Monga momwe Mulungu adatiweruza kuti ndife oyenera kupatsidwa uthenga wabwino, ndi momwe timayankhulira, osati monga kufuna kukondweretsa anthu, koma Mulungu, amene amaweruza mitima yathu. (1 Atesalonika 2: 4)
"Moyo" womwe ndikunena pano makamaka makamaka moyo wa Ukalisitiya wa Yesu. Ichi ndichifukwa chake gala iyi yatidula ambiri a ife pamtima. Zovala za unsembe wachikatolika si chikhalidwe chokhacho chabwino. Ndi chinyezimiro cha Yesu Khristu, Wansembe wathu Wamkulu, yemwe amapereka 
Iyemwini kwa ife monga Wovutika komanso wansembe mu Misa Yoyera. Zovala ndizizindikiro za Khristu Mwiniwake mu personi ndi mphamvu yomwe adapatsa Atumwi ndi owalowa m'malo mwawo Chitani ichi pondikumbukira Ine. ” Kugonana zovala ndi zovala zachipembedzo, ndiye kusakhulupirika. Chifukwa - ndipo nayi chisokonezo cha zonsezi - ndi umboni waulosi kwa a kusiya zadziko lapansi kuti zitheke bwino: kutomerana ndi mgwirizano ndi Mulungu. Ndipo monga wanenera Mr. Morgan, ndizopweteka kwambiri panthawi yomwe machimo ogonana a ansembe padziko lonse lapansi avulaza ambiri.
Nkhaniyi inali yondidzidzimutsa kwambiri pomwe idayamba madzulo. Chifukwa koyambirira kwa tsikuli, ndimakhala ndikuganizira za m'buku la Chivumbulutso lomwe ndikukhulupirira likufotokoza dziko la America lero, la "Chinsinsi Babulo ”:
Wagwa, wagwa ndi Babulo wamkulu. Iye wakhala mnyumba ya ziwanda. Ali khola la mzimu uliwonse wosayera, khola la mbalame iliyonse yosayera, khola la nyama iliyonse yonyansa ndi yonyansa. Pakuti amitundu onse amwa vinyo wa chilakolako chonyansa. Mafumu adziko lapansi adagona naye, ndipo amalonda adziko lapansi adapeza chuma chifukwa chakutakasuka. (Chiv 18: 3)
St. John akupitiliza kuti:
Kenako ndinamva mawu ena ochokera kumwamba akuti: “Chokani kwa iye anthu anga, kuti musayanjane ndi machimo ake, kuti musayanjane ndi miliri yake, pakuti machimo ake aunjikana kufikira kumwamba, ndipo Mulungu akumbukira zolakwa zake. ” (v. 4-5)
Tiyenera "kutuluka" ku Babeloni, osati kuti tibisalike pansi pa dengu, koma ndendende kuti tikhale kuunika kwenikweni kwa ena kuti tiwatsogolere kunja—osati mumdima.
Tsopano Mawu ndi utumiki wanthawi zonse womwe
akupitiliza ndi thandizo lanu.
Akudalitseni, ndipo zikomo.
Kuti muyende ndi Mark in The Tsopano Mawu,
dinani pachikwangwani pansipa kuti Tumizani.
Imelo yanu sidzagawidwa ndi aliyense.
Mawu a M'munsi
