Apocalypse, rakanyorwa naMichael D. O'Brien
Mazuva manomwe akati apera,
mafashama akauya panyika.
(Genesisi 7: 10)
I vanoda kutaura zvichibva pamoyo kwekanguva kuti vagadzire mamwe akateedzana.
Makore matatu apfuura anga ari rwendo runoshamisa kwandiri, rwandisina kumbofunga kutanga parwuri. Handizviti ndiri muporofita… anongova mumishinari ari nyore uyo anonzwa kudaidzwa kuti avhenekere zvishoma pamazuva atiri kurarama nemumazuva ari kuuya. Pasina mubvunzo kutaura, iri rave riri basa rinotyisa, uye rimwe rinoitwa nekutya kukuru uye kudedera. Zvirinani izvo zvandinogovana nevaporofita! Asi zvinoitwawo nerunyararo rwemunamato rutsigiro saka vazhinji venyu makapa nenyasha kwandiri. Ndinozvinzwa. Ndinoida. Uye ndinotenda zvikuru.
Zviitiko zvenguva yekupedzisira, sezvakaziviswa kumuporofita Danieri, zvaifanira kuvharwa kusvika panguva yekupedzisira. Kunyangwe Jesu haana kuvhura zvisimbiso izvi kuvadzidzi vake, uye akazvigumira pakupa dzimwe yambiro nekunongedzera kune zvimwe zviratidzo zvaizouya. Isu hatina kukanganisa, saka, mukutarisa zviratidzo izvi kubva zvatakarairwa naIshe vedu kuti tidaro paVakati, "tarisai munamate," uye zvakare,
Kana muchiona zvinhu izvi zvichiitika, zivai kuti ushe hwaMwari hwaswedera. (Ruka 21:31)
Vanababa veChechi vakabva vatipa nguva yekuverenga nguva iyo yakazadza izvo zvimishure. Munguva yedu, Mwari vakatuma vaporofita vazhinji, kusanganisira Amai Vake, vachidaidza vanhu kuti vagadzirire kutambudzika kukuru uye pakupedzisira, Kukunda kukuru, kuchivhenekera “zviratidzo zvenguva.”
Kuburikidza nerunhare rwemukati rwakabatsirwa nemunamato uye mamwe mwenje ayo akauya kwandiri, ndakagadzira mukunyora izvo zvandinonzwa kuti Ishe vari kukumbira kwandiri — zvinoti, kuronga nguva yezvakaitika zvichibva pakuda kwaKristu, sezvo iri dzidziso yeChechi kuti Muviri wake unozotevera tsoka dzake (Katekisimo yeChechi yeKaturike 677). Iyi nguva, sezvandakaona, inoyerera ichienderana nechiratidzo chaSt. Chinoitika kutevedzana kwezviitiko kubva muMagwaro zvinoenderana neicho chaihwo chiporofita. Zvisinei, tinofanira kurangarira izvozvo tinoona zvishoma sepachioni-uye nguva ndeye chakavanzika. Uyezve, Rugwaro rune nzira yekuzvidzokorora kunge mweya, uye nekudaro, inogona kududzirwa uye kuiswa kuzvizvarwa zvese.
Ndinoona zvishoma. Ini handizive zvinhu izvi zvechokwadi, asi uvape sekuenderana nemwenje wandakapihwa, zvinoonekwa kuburikidza nekutungamira pamweya, uye mukuzviisa zvizere kuhuchenjeri hweChechi.
YEMAHARA EKUSHANDA
Sezvakangoita mukadzi ane nhumbu achisangana nemabasa enhema panguva yese yepamuviri pake, saizvozvowo pasi rose rakasangana nemarwadzo ekubereka enhema kubva paKukwidzwa kwaKristu. Hondo, nzara, nematambudziko zvasvika zvapera. Marwadzo enhema emimba, kusanganisira kuda kurutsa uye kuneta, anogona kupedza mwedzi mipfumbamwe yese yekubata. Muchokwadi, iyo inzira yemutumbi yakareba yekugadzirira iyo nhamo ye zvechokwadi basa. Asi marwadzo chaiwo ekusununguka anogara chete maawa, inguva pfupi.
Kazhinji chiratidzo chekuti mukadzi atanga basa chairo ndechekuti "mvura yake inoputsika. "Saizvozvowo, makungwa atanga kukwira, uye mvura yapwanya mahombekombe edu muzvisikwa (funga Hurricane Katrina, Asian Tsunami, Mynamar, mafashama eIowa achangopfuura, nezvimwewo. Uye marwadzo ekurwadziwa anotyisa mukadzi zviitiko, zvinokonzeresa muviri wake kudedera nekuzununguka. Saizvozvowo, ivhu riri kutanga kuzungunuka mukukura kuwanda uye kusimba, "kugomera" sekutaura kwaSt. Paul, kumirira "kuratidzwa kwevana vaMwari" (Rom 8: 19).
Ndinotenda kuti marwadzo ekusununguka ari kusangana nenyika ikozvino ndizvo chaizvo, mavambo e basa rakaoma. Iko kuberekwa kwe "yakazara maHedeni. ” Mukadzi weZvakazarurwa anozvara uyu "mukomana mukomana" achigadzira nzira yekuti Israeri yese iponeswe.
"Kubatanidzwa kwakazara" kwemaJuda muruponeso rwaMesiasi, mukumuka kwe "huwandu hwakazara hwevaHedeni", zvichagonesa Vanhu vaMwari kuwana "chiyero chechiyero chekuzara kwaKristu", umo " Mwari anogona kuva zvese mune zvese ”. -Catechism yeChechi yeKaturike, N. 674
Ino inguva yakakomba yatapinda, nguva yekuramba takapengenuka uye takangwarira apo marwadzo ekubereka ari kuwedzera nzira yekuzvarwa.
MUGUNGWA WEKUBEREKEDZA
Ini ndinotenda iyo Kujekesa kunoratidzira iko kwekutanga kweiyo “Kutongwa Kwemakore Manomwe. ” Ichauya munguva yemhirizhonga, kureva kuti, panguva yekushanda kwakaomarara kwe Zvisimbiso zvaZvakazarurwa.
Sezvo Ndakanyora Kuvhurwa KweZvisimbiso, Ndinotenda Chisimbiso chekutanga chakatovhurwa.
Ndikatarisa, ndikaona bhiza jena, uye mutasvi waro aive neuta. Akapihwa korona, uye akatasva bhiza achikunda kuti awedzere kukunda kwake. (Zva 6: 2)
Ndokunge, vazhinji vari kutosangana neChiedza kana kumuka mumweya yavo seMutasvi, uyo Pope Pius XII anozivisa saJesu, anobaya moyo yavo nemiseve yerudo netsitsi achiti kukunda kwakawanda. Munguva pfupi iri kutevera, Mutasvi uyu achazviratidza kuNyika. Asi kutanga, zvimwe Zvisimbiso zvinofanirwa kuvhurwa kutanga neChipiri:
Rimwe bhiza rakabuda, dzvuku. Mutasvi waro wakapiwa simba rekubvisa rugare panyika, kuti vanhu vaurayane. Uye akapihwa bakatwa hombe. (Zvak. 6: 4)
Uku kumuka kwemhirizhonga nemhirizhonga muchimiro chehondo nekumukira uye mhedzisiro yavo ndiko kurohwa, uko kunounzwa nemunhu paari, sezvakafanotaurwa naAkaropafadzwa Anna Maria Taigi:
Mwari achatumira zvirango zviviri: chimwe chichava muhondo, kumukira, uye humwe zvakaipa; ichavapo pasi. Imwe yacho inotumirwa kubva kuDenga. -Chikoro cheKaturike, Yves Dupont, Tan Mabhuku (1970), peji. 44-45
Uye ngatiregei kuti ndiMwari vari kutiranga nenzira iyi; pane zvinopesana vanhu pachavo vari kuzvigadzirira yavo kurangwa. Mune mutsa wake Mwari anotinyevera uye anotidaidza munzira kwayo, nepo tichiremekedza rusununguko rwaakatipa; saka vanhu vane basa. —Sr. Lucia, mumwe wevanoona Fatima, mutsamba kuna Baba Vatsvene, Chivabvu 12, 1982.
Zvisimbiso zvinotevera zvinoita sezvibereko zveChipiri: Chisimbiso Chechitatu chakaputswa - kuparara kwehupfumi pamwe nekugoverwa kwechikafu chechina, denda, nzara, uye mhirizhonga yakawanda; Chechishanu, kumwe kutambudzwa kweChechi- zvese zvinoita kunge zvichakonzera kuparara kwenzanga zvichitevera hondo. Uku kutambudzwa kwevaKristu, ndinotenda, chichava chibereko chemutemo wemauto uyo unozomisikidzwa munyika zhinji se "nyika chengetedzo" chiyero. Asi izvi zvichashandiswa sepamberi "kukomberedza" avo vari kugadzira "kukanganisa kwevanhu." Zvakare, pasina kuenda mune zvakadzama, sosi yenzara nematambudziko zvinogona kunge zviri zvechisikigo kana zvemubvunzo usinganzwisisike, zvakagadzirwa neavo vanofunga "kutonga kwevanhu" kwavo.
Kuchava nokudengenyeka kwenyika kune simba, nzara nehosha kunzvimbo nenzvimbo; uye zvinotyisa kuona nezviratidzo zvikuru zvichauya kubva kudenga. (Ruka 21:11)
Ipapo, Chisimbiso cheChitanhatu chinovhurwa— “zviratidzo zvinobva kudenga":
Ndakatarisa paakavhura chisimbiso chechitanhatu, uye kwakava nokudengenyeka kwenyika kukuru. zuva rakashanduka kuva rakasviba semasaga erima uye mwedzi wese wakaita seropa. Nyeredzi mudenga dzakawira pasi semaonde asina kuibva azunzwa kubva mumuti nemhepo ine simba. (Zva 6: 12-13)
CHISIMBISO CHECHITANHATU
Zvinoitika zvinotevera zvinonzwika zvakanyanya seChiedza:
Ipapo denga rakakamurwa kunge mupumburu wakabvaruka uchimonera, uye gomo rega rega nechitsuwa chakabviswa panzvimbo dzacho. Madzimambo epasi, vanokudzwa, vakuru vemauto, vapfumi, vane simba, uye muranda wese neasununguka vakavanda mumapako uye pakati pemabwe emakomo. Vakashevedzera kumakomo nematombo, vachiti, "Wira pamusoro pedu utivanze pachiso cheuyo agere pachigaro cheushe uye kubva pahasha dzeGwayana, nekuti zuva guru rekutsamwa kwavo rasvika uye ndiani angatsungirira ? ” (Zva 6: 14-17)
Iwo mashura anotiudza kuti kune vamwe vanhu, Kujekesa uku kana Yambiro ichave se "mutongo mudiki," wakatarisana kunge "hasha dzaMwari" kuti vagadzirise hana dzavo. Chiono cheMuchinjikwa, chinokonzera kushungurudzika kwakadai uye kunyadziswa kune vanogara panyika, ndee "Gwayana rakamira, sekunge rakauraiwa" (Zva 5: 6).
Ipapo chiratidzo chikuru chemuchinjikwa chichaonekwa mudenga. Kubva mukuvhurika uko pakaroverwa maoko netsoka dzeMuponesi panozobuda mwenje mikuru. -Diary yaSt Faustina, N. 83
Ndichadurura pamusoro pemba yaDhavhidhi uye napamusoro pavagere Jerusaremu mweya wenyasha nechikumbiro; uye vachatarisa iye wavakabaya, uye vachamuchema semunhu anochema mwanakomana wake mumwechete, uye vachamuchema semunhu anochema dangwe. (Zek. 12: 10-11)
Chokwadi, Chiedza chinonyevera nezvekusvika kwacho Zuva raIshe apo Kristu anouya “sembavha usiku” kuzotonga mupenyu. Kungofanana nekudengenyeka kwenyika kwakaperekedza kufa kwaJesu paMuchinjikwa, saka kuvhenekerwa kweMuchinjikwa mudenga kuchaperekedzwa ne Kubvunda kukuru.
KUZUNGUZA KUKURU
Tinoona uku Kudengenyeka Kukuru kuchiitika Jesu paanopinda muJerusarema nekuda kweKushushikana Kwake. Akatambirwa nemapazi emichindwe uye mhere ye "Hosana kuMwanakomana waDavidi." Saizvozvowo, Mutsvene Johane anovawo nechiratidzo mushure mekunge Chisimbiso cheChitanhatu chaputsika maanoona vanhu vazhinji vakabata matavi emichindwe uye vachidanidzira vachiti, "Ruponeso runobva kuna Mwari wedu."
asi yakazosvika pakazungunuka Jerusarema kuti vamwe vese vakabuda vachishamisika kuti murume uyu ndiani:
Zvino wakati apinda muJerusarema, guta rose rakazungunuswa; vakabvunza vachiti: Ndiani uyu? Zvaunga zvikapindura zvikati: Uyu ndiJesu muporofita weNazareta reGarirea. (Mat. 21:10)
Saka vanhu vakawandisa, vakamutswa neChiedza ichi, vanozovhunduka vovhiringidzika uye vobvunza kuti, "Ndiani uyu?" Uku ndiko kuparidzira kutsva kwatiri kugadzirirwa. Asi ichatangawo nhanho nyowani ye kurwisana. Nepo vakasara vevatendi vachidanidzira kuti Jesu ndiye Mesia, vamwe vachati Iye anongova muporofita. Mundima iyi yaMateu, tinoona zano reHondo, re Manyepo Anouya apo vaporofita venhema veNhambo Itsva vachadyara kutaura kwenhema pamusoro paKristu, uye nokudaro, Chechi Yake.
Asi pachave nechimwe chiratidzo chekubatsira vatendi: Mukadzi waZvakazarurwa.
KUVhenekerwa NEMUKADZI
Sezvo Maria akamira pasi peMuchinjikwa kekutanga, saka futi, achave aripo pasi peMuchinjikwa weChiedza. Saka Chisimbiso chechitanhatu naZvakazarurwa 11:19 zvinoita sekutsanangura chiitiko chimwechete kubva munzira mbiri dzakasiyana:
Ipapo temberi yaMwari kudenga yakavhurwa, uye areka yesungano yake yakaonekwa mutemberi. Kwakave nekupenya kwemheni, kutinhira, uye kutinhira kwemheni kudengenyeka kwenyika, uye chimvuramabwe chine simba.
Areka yekutanga yesungano yakavakwa naDavid yakavanzwa mubako nemuporofita Jeremiah. Akati nzvimbo yekuvanda yaisazoburitswa kusvika pane imwe nguva mune ramangwana.
Nzvimbo yacho inofanira kuramba isingazivikanwe kusvikira Mwari aunganidza vanhu vake zvakare uye anovaratidza tsitsi. (2 Macc 2: 7)
Kujekesa is iyo Hora Yenyasha, chikamu cheZuva reNgoni rinotangira Zuva reRuramisiro. Uye munguva iyoyo yengoni tichaona Areka mutembere yaMwari.
Maria, mune iyo Ishe iye achangobva kuita pekugara, ndiye mwanasikana weZiyoni ari munhu, areka yesungano, nzvimbo panogara kubwinya kwaIshe. -Catechism yeChechi yeKaturike, n. 2676
NEI MARIYA?
Areka yeSungano Itsva, Maria, inoonekwa mutembere; asi yakamira pakati payo, zvirokwazvo, Gwayana raMwari:
Ipapo ndakaona amire pakati pechigaro cheushe nezvisikwa zvipenyu zvina nevakuru, Gwayana rakamira, sekunge rakaurawa. (Zvak. 5: 6)
Nei St. John asingatarise zvakanyanya paGwayana pane Areka? Mhinduro ndeyekuti Jesu akatotarisana neShato uye akakunda. Apocalypse yaJohn yakanyorwa kugadzirira Chechi nokuda kwake Passion. Zvino Muviri wake Chechi, zvakare inofananidzirwa neMukadzi, ndeyekutarisana neDhiragoni iri, richipwanya musoro waro sezvakafanotaurwa
Ndichaisa ruvengo pakati pako nemukadzi, nembeu yako nembeu yake; iye uchapwanya musoro wako, uye uchavandira chitsitsinho chake. (Gen 3:15; Douay-Rheims)
Mukadzi ndiMaria uye Chechi. Uye Maria ari…
… Chechi yekutanga uye mukadzi weYukaristiya. —Cardinal Marc Ouellet, Magnificat: Kuvhura Mhemberero uye Nhungamiro yeMweya for the 49th Eucharistic Congress, peji 164
Chiratidzo chaSt. John pakupedzisira ndecheKukunda kweChechi, kunova ndiko Kukunda kweiyo Isina Kufungirwa Mwoyo uye Mutsvene Mwoyo waJesu, kunyangwe kukunda kweChechi kusinga zadziswe zvakakwana kusvika kumagumo enguva:
Kukunda kwehumambo hwaKristu hakuuye pasina kurwisa kwekupedzisira nemasimba ehuipi. -CCC, 680
JESU AND MARIA
Nekudaro, isu tinowana ichi chiratidzo chakapetwa chaMaria neMuchinjikwa chaifananidzirwa munguva dzazvino kubva paakatanga kuzviratidza kuna Catherine Labouré uye akakumbira kuti Chishamiso Medhi irohwe (pazasi kuruboshwe). Mary ari kumberi kwemenduru ne chiedza chaKristu kuyerera kubva mumaoko ake uye shure kwake; seri kwemenduru kune Muchinjikwa.
Enzanisa nzira yaanofungidzirwa kuIda Peerdeman pamusoro pemakore makumi mashanu gare gare mumufananidzo (kurudyi) iyo yakagamuchirwa zviri pamutemo neChechi:
Uye hechino chifananidzo kubva pamifananidzo yakatenderwa yeAkita, Japan:
Iyi mifananidzo yaMaria zviratidzo zvine simba zve "kusangana kwekupedzisira" uko kuri pamberi peChechi: kwake kuda, kufa, uye kukudzwa:

Nekudaro, iyo Kujekesa iri kusaina kuChechi kuti Kutongwa Kwake kukuru kwasvika, asi zvakanyanya, kuti iye kusimbiswa kwaedza… kuti iye pachake mambakwedza eEra nyowani.

Izvi zvinonyatsotsanangura nguva yeRunyararo, kana "zuva rekuzorora" apo Kristu anotonga kuburikidza nevatsvene Vake mukati mubatanidzwa wakadzika wakavanzika.
Izvo zvinotevera Chiedza, muchikamu chechitatu ...
