Impendulo

UEliya ulele, ngu-Michael D. O'Brien

 

Mvanje, Mna uphendule imibuzo yakho malunga nesityhilelo sabucala, kubandakanya nombuzo malunga newebhusayithi ebizwa ngokuba yi-www.catholicplanet.com apho indoda ethi "ingumfundi wezakwalizwi" ithe, ngokuzimela, yathatha inkululeko yokuxela ukuba ngubani eCaweni ongumhlawuleli "wobuxoki" isityhilelo sabucala, kwaye ngubani ohambisa izityhilelo "eziyinyani".

Kwiintsuku ezimbalwa zokubhala kwam, umbhali wale webhusayithi wapapasha ngesiquphe inqaku lokuba kutheni lo Le webhusayithi “igcwele iimpazamo nobuxoki.” Sele ndichazile ukuba kutheni lo mntu esonakalise kakhulu ukuthembeka kwakhe ngokuqhubeka nokuseta imihla yeziganeko zesiprofeto ezizayo, emva koko-xa zingafezekisi-ukuseta kwakhona imihla (jonga Eminye imibuzo kunye neempendulo… kwiSityhilelo sabucala). Ngesi sizathu sodwa, uninzi alumthathi nzulu lo mntu. Nangona kunjalo, imiphefumlo eliqela iye kwiwebhusayithi yakhe yaza yashiya apho ididekile, mhlawumbi ngumqondiso wenqaku ngokwalo (Mat 7:16).

Emva kokucamngca ngento ebhaliweyo malunga nale webhusayithi, ndiziva ukuba kufanele ukuba ndiphendule, ubuncinci ngeli thuba lokukhanyisa nangakumbi kwiinkqubo ezisisiseko sokubhala apha. Unokufunda inqaku elifutshane elibhaliweyo malunga nale ndawo hayiyebang.com Apha. Ndiza kucaphula imiba ethile ngayo, emva koko ndiphendule apha ngezantsi.

 

ISITYHILELO SABUCALA VS. Ukucamngca ngomthandazo

Kwinqaku likaRon Conte, ubhala athi:

UMark Mallet [sic] amabango afumene isityhilelo sangasese. Uchaza esi sityhilelo sabucala ngasese ngeendlela ezahlukeneyo: "Kwiveki ephelileyo, ilizwi elinamandla lifikile kum" kwaye "NDIVELELE ilizwi elinamandla eCaweni ngale ntsasa ngomthandazo… [njl.

Ewe, kuninzi lwemibhalo yam, ndiye ndabelana ngencwadi yam “yemihla ngemihla” ekwi-intanethi iingcinga namagama afike kum ngomthandazo. Umfundi wethu wezakwalizwi unqwenela ukuzihlela ngokulula ezi “zityhilwa zabucala.” Apha, kufuneka sahlule phakathi "komprofeti" kunye "nesisa sesiprofeto" ngokunjalo "nesityhilelo sabucala" vs. lectio divina. Akukho ndawo kwimibhalo yam apho ndibanga ukuba ndiyimboni, umbono, okanye umprofeti. Andizange ndibone umbono okanye ndive ilizwi likaThixo. Njengoninzi lwenu, nangona kunjalo, ndiyibonile iNkosi ithetha, ngamanye amaxesha ngamandla, ngeSibhalo, ngeLiturgy yeYure, ngencoko, ngeRosari, ewe, kwimiqondiso yamaxesha. Kwimeko yam, ndive ukuba iNkosi indibiza ukuba ndibelane ngezi zimvo esidlangalaleni, endiqhubeka ndizenza phantsi kolwalathiso lomoya wombingeleli othembekileyo nonesiphiwo esikhulu Ubungqina bam).

Okona kulungileyo, ndicinga ukuba, ndingasebenza ngamanye amaxesha phantsi komoya wokuprofeta. Ndiyathemba njalo, kuba eli lilifa lawo onke amakholwa abhaptiziweyo:

… Amarhamente enziwa ukuba athabathe inxaxheba kububingeleli, ekuprofeteni, nakubukumkani bukaKrestu; Baye, ke ngoko, eCaweni nasehlabathini, umsebenzi wabo kwimishini yabo bonke abantu bakaThixo. -Catechism yeCawa yamaKatolika, n. 904

Lo msebenzi nguKrestu li lindele kuwo onke amakholwa abhaptiziweyo:

UKristu… uzalisekisa esi sikhundla sokuprofeta, kungengabaphathi kuphela… kodwa nangamarhamente. Wabamisa bobabini njengamangqina kwaye wabanika nengqondo yokholo.Iselfusi fidei] kunye nobabalo lwegama ... Ukufundisa ukuze ukhokele abanye elukholweni ngumsebenzi womshumayeli ngamnye kunye nekholwa ngalinye. —Catechism yeCawa yamaKatolika, n. I-904

Isitshixo apha, nangona kunjalo, kukuba asishumayeli ivangeli entsha, kodwa iVangeli esiyifumeneyo ku iBandla, kwaye ligcinwe ngononophelo nguMoya oyiNgcwele. Kule meko, ndizamile ngenkuthalo efanelekileyo ukuba ndifaneleke phantse yonke into endiyibhalileyo kunye neenkcazo ezivela kwiCatechism, oobawo abangcwele, oobawo bangaphambili, kwaye ngamanye amaxesha ndavuma isityhilelo sabucala. “Igama” lam alithethi nto ukuba alinakuxhaswa, okanye liyaphikisana neLizwi elityhilwe kwiNkcubeko yethu eNgcwele.

Ukutyhilwa kwangasese kuluncedo kule nkolo, kwaye kubonisa ukuthembeka kwayo ngokuchanekileyo ngokundibuyisela kwiSityhilelo sikawonke-wonke esichazayo. -Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (POPE BENEDICT XVI), Amagqabantshintshi ngethiyoloji kuMyalezo kaFatima

 

UBIZO

Ndingathanda ukwabelana ngento yam "yemishini" yam. Kwiminyaka emibini edlulileyo, ndandinamava anamandla kwindlu yomphathi wam wokomoya. Ndathandaza phambi kweSakramente elisikelelekileyo ngequbuliso ndeva ngaphakathi amazwi athi "Ndikunika ulungiselelo lukaYohane uMbhaptizi. ” Oko kwalandelwa kukudinwa okunamandla okubaleka emzimbeni wam kangangemizuzu eli-10. Ngentsasa elandelayo kwafika indoda yaza yandicela. “Nanku,” watsho, ngelixesha esolula isandla, “Ndiva ukuba iNkosi ifuna ukuba ndikunike le nto.” Yayiyinto yokuqala yodidi lwe- ISt. John umBhaptizi. ^[1]cf. IiRelics kunye noMyalezo

Emva kweeveki ezimbalwa, ndafika kwicawa yaseMelika ndisiya kushumayela. Umfundisi wandibulisa wathi, “Ndinento endifuna ukukuphathela yona.” Ubuyile wathi uziva ukuba iNkosi ifuna ukuba ndibenayo. Yayiy icon ye UYohane uMbhaptizi.

Xa uYesu wayeza kuqala ubulungiseleli baKhe esidlangalaleni, uYohane walatha kuKristu wathi, "Nantso iMvana kaThixo." Ndiva ukuba le yintliziyo yokuthunywa kwam: ukukhomba kwiMvana kaThixo, ngakumbi UYesu ukhona phakathi kwethu kwi-Eucharist eNgcwele. Umsebenzi wam kukuzisa ngamnye kuni kwiMvana kaThixo, Intliziyo Engcwele kaYesu, Intliziyo yeNceba kaThixo. Ewe, ndinelinye ibali endinokuxelela lona… ukudibana kwam nomnye wootatomkhulu benceba kaThixo, kodwa mhlawumbi lelinye ixesha (okoko eli nqaku lapapashwa, eli bali ngoku lifakiwe Apha).

 

Iintsuku ezintathu zobumnyama

UThixo uza kuthumela izigwebo ezibini: esinye siyakuba semfazweni, imvukelo kunye nobunye ububi. Uya kuvela emhlabeni. Omnye uya kuthunyelwa evela ezulwini. Kuya kuza phezu komhlaba wonke ubumnyama obukhulu, obunemihla emithathu nobusuku obuthathu. Akukho nto inokubonwa, kwaye umoya uya kuthwala indyikitya yokufa eya kuthi ibange ikakhulu, kodwa hayi kuphela, iintshaba zenkolo. Akunakubakho ukusebenzisa naziphi na izibane ezenziwe ngabantu kobu bumnyama, ngaphandle kwamakhandlela asikelelweyo. -Usikelelwe uAnna Maria Taigi, d. 1837, Iziprofetho zikaRhulumente neziZimeleyo malunga namaXesha okuGqibela, Mnu. UBenjamin Martin Sanchez, 1972, iphe. 47

Ndipapashe imibhalo engaphezu kwama-500 kule webhusayithi. Omnye wabo ujongene nento ebizwa ngokuba "ziintsuku ezintathu zobumnyama." Ndichukumisile ngokufutshane malunga nalo mbandela kuba ayisosiganeko esichongwe ngokukodwa liSiko leCawa lethu njengoko kuchaziwe kumbono, kodwa intle kakhulu ingumbandela wesityhilelo sabucala. Nangona kunjalo, abafundi abaliqela bebebuza ngayo, kwaye ke, ndiye ndathetha ngalo mbandela (jonga Iintsuku ezintathu zobumnyama). Ngokwenza njalo, ndafumanisa ukuba ngokuqinisekileyo kukho umzekelo weBhayibhile wesiganeko esinjalo (iEksodus 10: 22-23; jonga ubulumko 17: 1-18: 4).

Kubonakala ngathi sisiseko sebango likaMnu. Conte lokuba "izimvo" endizibonisayo malunga "nomxholo we-eschatology zigcwele iimpazamo kunye nobuxoki" kuxhomekeke kwingqikelelo yokuba nini lo msitho unokwenzeka (jonga Imephu yaseZulwiniNangona kunjalo, umfundi wethu wezakwalizwi uyiphosile inqaku kwaphela: le ngu isityhilelo sangasese kwaye ayisiyonto yokholo kunye nokuziphatha, nangona inokuthi icaciswe kwiZibhalo ezi-apocalyptic. Ukuthelekisa kuya kuthi, yithi, isiprofeto senyikima enkulu eMidwest Midwest. Isibhalo sithetha ngeenyikima ezinkulu ngexesha lokugqibela, kodwa ukwalatha kwisiganeko esinye esityhilwe kwisityhilelo sangasese ngekhe kusenze eso siprofetho sikumbindi wesentshona sibe yinxalenye yediphozithi yokholo. Ihlala isityhilelo sangasese esingafanelekanga ndideliwe, njengoko esitsho uPaul Paul, kodwa kuvavanywa. Kananjalo, iintsuku ezintathu zobumnyama zivulelekile kwinkoliso yeenguqulelo ezahlukeneyo kuba ayikho kwinqaku lokholo.

Uhlobo lwesiprofeto lufuna ukuqikelela ngomthandazo kunye nokuqonda. Kungenxa yokuba ezo ziprofetho azikaze "zicoceke" kwaphela kuba zidluliselwa kwisitya somntu, kule meko, Usikelelwe uAna Maria Taigi. UPopu Benedict XVI ucacisa esi sizathu sokulumka xa etolika isityhilelo sabucala kwinkcazo yakhe malunga nokubonakala kukaFatima:

Imibono enjalo ke ayikhe ibe “yimifanekiso” elula yelinye ilizwe, kodwa iphenjelelwa zizinto ezinokubakho kunye nokusikelwa umda kwesihloko esibonayo. Oku kungabonakaliswa kuyo yonke imibono emikhulu yabangcwele… Kodwa kananjalo akufuneki bacingelwe okomzuzwana isigqubuthelo selinye ilizwe sitsale emva, kunye nezulu livela kwimo yalo emsulwa, nanjengomhla omnye sinethemba lokuwubona kumanyano lwethu oluqinisekileyo noThixo. Endaweni yokuba imifanekiso, ngendlela yokuthetha, sisindululo sempembelelo evela phezulu kunye namandla okufumana oku kuqhubela phambili kumbono ... -Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (POPE BENEDICT XVI), Amagqabantshintshi ngethiyoloji kuMyalezo kaFatima

Kananjalo, iiNtsuku ezintathu zoBumnyama sisiganeko esithi, ukuba sakha senzeka, kufuneka sivulelwe ukuba siqwalaselwe ngononophelo, nangona sivela kumfihlelo ongcwele kakhulu nothembekileyo onesiprofeto sakhe esingqineke sinyanisile ngaphambili.

 

UHLOBO LWALO

UMnu Conte ubhala athi:

Okokuqala, uMark Mallet [sic] yenza impazamo yokugqiba ukuba iintsuku ezintathu zobumnyama zinokubangelwa yi-comet, kunokuba ibe bubumnyama obungaphezu kwendalo. Njengoko kuchaziwe kubude be-eschatology yam, akunakwenzeka ukuba lo msitho, njengoko uchaziwe ngabangcwele kunye ne-mystics, ungabikho ngaphandle kwendalo (nangaphambi kwendalo). UMallet ucaphula inani labangcwele kunye neentsomi ngesihloko seentsuku ezintathu zobumnyama, kodwa emva koko uyaqhubeka esenza izigqibo eziphikisana nezi zicatshulwa.

Into endiyibhalileyo:

Zininzi iziprofeto, kunye nokubhekiswa kwincwadi yesiTyhilelo, ezithetha nge-comet enokuthi idlule kufutshane okanye ichaphazele umhlaba. Kusenokwenzeka ukuba umsitho onjalo unokufaka umhlaba kubumnyama, ugqume umhlaba kunye nomoya ojikeleze umhlaba kulwandle lothuli nothuthu.

Umbono we-comet ozayo ungowaseBhayibhileni kunye nesiprofeto esiphethwe ziingcwele kunye neentsomi ngokufanayo. Ndithelekelele ukuba oku 'kunokwenzeka' unobangela wobumnyama—hayi Isizathu esiqinisekileyo, njengoko kucetyiswa nguMnu. Ngapha koko, ndacaphula ubuKatolika obubonakala buchaza iintsuku ezintathu zobumnyama ngokwasemoyeni nangokwemvelo:

Amafu anemibane yomlilo kunye nesaqhwithi somlilo siyakudlula kwihlabathi liphela kwaye isohlwayo siyakuba sesona sisoyikekayo kwimbali yoluntu. Iya kuhlala iiyure ezingama-70. Abangendawo baya kutyunyuzwa, batshatyalaliswe. Baninzi abaya kulahleka, ngokuba behleli ngokwezono zabo. Emva koko baya kuva amandla okukhanya ngaphaya kobumnyama. Iiyure zobumnyama zikufuphi. —ISk. U-Elena Aiello (unongendi waseCalabrian owayebeka amabala; d. 1961); Iintsuku ezintathu zobumnyama, UAlbert J. Herbert, iphe. 26

Isibhalo ngokwaso sibonisa ukusetyenziswa kwendalo kubulungisa bukaThixo:

Xa ndikucima, ndiya kuligquma izulu, ndizenze mnyama iinkwenkwezi zabo; Ndiza kuligubungela ilanga ngelifu, nenyanga ayiyi kukhanya. Zonke izikhanyiso ezikhanyisayo ezulwini ndiya kuzambathisa ngezimnyama zokuzila ngenxa yakho, ndenze ubumnyama phezu kwelizwe lakho; itsho iNkosi uYehova. (Ez 32: 7-8)

Yintoni enye "ukuncwina" kwendalo okuchazwa nguSt.Paul ngaphandle kwendalo, mhlawumbi iphela, ephendula kwisono soluntu? Yiyo loo nto uYesu ngokwakhe echaza ukuvumela kukaThixo ukusebenza ngokungummangaliso "ngeenyikima ezinkulu… indlala neendyikitya zokufa" (uLuka 21:11; khangela naku-Rev 6: 12-13). Isibhalo sigcwele iimeko apho indalo isitya soncedo lukaThixo okanye ubulungisa bukaThixo.

Isiprofeto santlandlolo sithi esi sohlwayo "siyakuthunyelwa sivela ezulwini." Ithetha ntoni le nto? Umnumzana Conte ubonakala eyithathile ngokoqobo le nto ukuya esiphelweni sakhe esipheleleyo, ukuba kungabikho sizathu siphambili okanye esinegalelo kubumnyama obuhambelana nendalo yesi siprofeto: yokuba umoya uya kuzaliswa yindyikitya yokufa-iidemon, eziyimimoya, hayi izinto ezibonakalayo. Akashiyi thuba lokuba kunokwenzeka ukuba ukuwa kwenyukliya, uthuthu lwentaba-mlilo, okanye mhlawumbi i-comet inokwenza lukhulu "ekwenzeni mnyama ilanga" kwaye "ijike inyanga ibe bomvu njengegazi." Ngaba ubumnyama bunokuba zizinto zokomoya kuphela? Ngokuqinisekileyo, kutheni kungenjalo. Zive ukhululekile ukuqikelela.

 

UKUBA

UMnu Conte wabhala:

Okwesibini, uthi iintsuku ezintathu zobumnyama zenzeka ngexesha lokubuya kukaKristu, xa umchasi-Kristu (okt irhamncwa) kunye nomprofeti wobuxoki baphoswa esihogweni. Uyasilela ukuqonda enye yezona ngcamango zisisiseko kwi-eschatology yamaKatolika, ukuba imbandezelo yahlulwe yangamacandelo amabini; Oku kucacile kwiSibhalo esingcwele, kumagama eNtombikazi kaMariya eLa Salette, nakwimibhalo yeeSanta ezahlukeneyo kunye neemfihlakalo.

Akukho ndawo kuyo nayiphi na imibhalo yam apho ndicebisa ukuba iintsuku ezintathu zobumnyama zenzeke "ngexesha lokubuya kukaKristu." Ukuqikelela kuka Mnu. Conte kungqina ukuba akakhange ayiphonononge ngononophelo imibhalo yam ejongene "namaxesha okuphela" njengoko aqondwayo ngaBaseki beCawa yokuqala. Ucinga into engeyonyani yokuba ndiyakholelwa ukuba "konke kuyakwenzeka kwesi sizukulwana sangoku." Abo balandela imibhalo yam bayazi ukuba bendilumkisile ngokungaguquguqukiyo nolu qhankqalazo (bona Ukujonga okungokwesiprofeto). Kuyalingana okwangoku ukuba ndishiye impendulo yam kuba izimvo zikaMnu Conte ziphandwe kakubi, izigqibo zakhe azikho mxholweni, ezinokuthatha amaphepha ukubonisa oku. Nangona kunjalo, ndiza kuzama ukusombulula kancinci ukudideka kwakhe ukuze kuxhamle ubuncinci kubafundi bam.

Phambi kokuba ndiqhubeke, ndifuna ukuthi ndiyifumana le ngxoxo isikhathi ukuba malunga nokubaluleka njengokuxoxa ngombala wamehlo eNtombikazi. Ngaba ibalulekile loo nto? Hayi. Ngaba ndiyakhathala? Hayi ncma. Izinto ziya kuza xa zisiza…

Oko kwathiwa, ndibeke iintsuku ezintathu zobumnyama ngokulandelelana kweziganeko ngesizathu: ukulandelelana kwexesha okuvela ekuqondeni imihla yokugqibela ngabaseki beCawa bokuqala kunye nababhali bezenkolo. Kolu luhlu lwamaxesha, ndatsho ngaphakathi Imephu yaseZulwini, “Kubonakala kukuzingca kum ukucebisa ukuba le mephu kubhalwe ngamatye kanye kanye ngendlela ekuya kubakho ngayo. ” Xa bendikhetha imibhalo yam ngeziganeko zeeschatological kwi Ityala leminyaka esixhenxe, Ndabhala:

Oku kucamngca kusisiqhamo somthandazo kumzamo wam wokuqonda ngcono imfundiso yeCawe yokuba uMzimba kaKristu uyakulandela iNtloko yawo ngothando lwawo okanye "uvavanyo lokugqibela," njengoko ikhatshwa yiCatechism. Kuba incwadi yesiTyhilelo ichaza ngokuyinxalenye nolu vavanyo lokugqibela, ndijongile apha a nokwenzeka ukutolikwa kwe-Apocalypse yase-St. John kunye nepatheni yokuKhathazeka kukaKristu. Umfundi kufuneka ayigcine engqondweni into yokuba zezi eyam imbonakalo Ayisiyiyo ingcaciso yesiTyhilelo, eyincwadi eneentsingiselo kunye nobukhulu bayo, hayi eyona incinci.

Umnumzana Conte ubonakala ngathi uziphosile ezi ziqinisekiso zibalulekileyo ezilumkisa umfundi ngento yoqikelelo ekhoyo.

Ukubekwa kweentsuku ezintathu zobumnyama kwafikelelwa ngokudibanisa isiprofeto sika-Anna Maria kunye namazwi anegunya ootata beCawa apho babelana ngomhlaba ofanayo: ukuba umhlaba uya kuhlanjululwa kubungendawo phambi kokuba an "Ixesha loxolo. " Ukuba iyakucocwa ngokuchanekileyo njengoko u-Anna Maria ecebisa ukuba sihlale sisisiprofeto esenzelwe ukuqonda. Malunga nokuhlanjululwa komhlaba, ndibhale kwincwadi yam Imbonakalo yokuGqibela, oko kusekwe kwiimfundiso zaBaseki beCawa yokuqala…

Lo ngumgwebo, hayi wabo bonke, kodwa kuphela wabaphilayo emhlabeni, ovuthayo, ngokweentsomi, kwiintsuku ezintathu zobumnyama. Oko kukuthi, ayisosigwebo sokugqibela, kodwa ngumgwebo ococa umhlaba kubo bonke ububi kwaye ubuyisele uBukumkani kwintombi kaKristu, intsalela esele emhlabeni. —P. I-167

Kwakhona, kumbono ka-Anna Maria:

Zonke iintshaba zeCawa, nokuba ziyaziwa okanye azaziwa, ziya kutshabalala phezu kwawo wonke umhlaba kobo bumnyama, ngaphandle kwabambalwa abaza kuguqulwa nguThixo kungekudala. -Iziprofetho zikaRhulumente neziZimeleyo malunga namaXesha okuGqibela, Mnu. UBenjamin Martin Sanchez, 1972, iphe. 47

UBawo weCawa, uSt. UIrenaeus waseLyons (140-202 AD) wabhala:

Kodwa ke xa uKrestu echasene nazo zonke izinto ezikhoyo emhlabeni, uya kulawula iminyaka emithathu eneenyanga ezintandathu, uhlale etempileni eJerusalem. Yothi ke iNkosi ibuye ivela ezulwini esemafini… ithumele lo mntu kunye nabo bamlandelayo kwichibi lomlilo; kodwa izisa amalungisa ngobukumkani, oko kukuthi, ukuphumla, usuku olungcwele ... Ezi ziya kwenzeka ngexesha lobukumkani, oko kukuthi, ngomhla wesixhenxe ... iSabatha yokwenene yamalungisa. - (140–202 AD); IiNdawo zokuHamba, UIrenaeus waseLyons, V.33.3.4, Ootata beCawe, ICIMA Ukupapasha Co

Oku kwenzeka “ngamaxesha obukumkani” okanye oko abanye Abaseki beCawa bakubiza ngokuba “ngumhla wesixhenxe” ngaphambi “kosuku lwesibhozo” olungunaphakade. Umbhali wezenkolo, uLactantius, owamkelwe njengenxalenye yelizwi lesiNtu, ukwacebisa ngokuhlanjululwa komhlaba ngaphambi "kosuku lokuphumla," okanye Isahluko soxolo:

Kuba uThixo, eyigqibile imisebenzi yaKhe, waphumla ngomhla wesixhenxe, wawusikelela, wathi ekupheleni konyaka wamawaka amathandathu bonke ububi mabupheliswe emhlabeni, ubulungisa bulawule iminyaka eliwaka…UCaecilius Firmianus Lactantius (250-317 AD; umbhali weCawa), Amaziko obuThixoUmqulu 7

Kwaye waphumla ngomhla wesixhenxe. Oku kuthetha ukuba: xa uNyana wakhe eza kuza atshabalalise ixesha labachasene nomthetho agwebe abangenabuthixo, kwaye atshintshe ilanga nenyanga neenkwenkwezi — uyakuphumla ngenene ngomhla wesixhenxe. -Ileta kaBharnabhas, ibhalwe nguBawo OngumPostile wenkulungwane yesibini

Ukuthelekiswa ngononophelo kweleta kaBharnabhas nabanye aBaseki beCawa kutyhila ukuba ukutshintsha “kwelanga nenyanga neenkwenkwezi” akubhekiseli, kule meko, kumaZulu amatsha noMhlaba oMtsha, kodwa luhlobo oluthile indalo:

Ngosuku lokuxhela okukhulu, xa iinqaba zisiwa, ukukhanya kwenyanga kuya kuba njengokukhanya kwelanga kwaye ukukhanya kwelanga kuya kuba kukhulu ngokuphindwe kasixhenxe (njengokukhanya kweentsuku ezisixhenxe). Ngemini uYehova aya kuwabopha ngayo amanxeba abantu bakhe, uya kuyiphilisa imivumbo eseleyo. (Is 30: 25-26)

Ilanga liya kukhanya ngokuphindwe kasixhenxe kunangoku. -Caecilius Firmianus Lactantius (250-317 AD; uBawo weCawa kunye nombhali wokuqala wecawa), Amaziko obuThixo

Kwaye ke siyabona ukuba isiprofeto sika-Ana esikelelekileyo sinokuba si Inkcazo wento eyathethwa nguBawo weCawa kwiinkulungwane ngaphambili. Okanye hayi.

 

UVUKO LOKUQALA

Nje ukuba iqondwe ukuba kutheni iintsuku ezintathu zobumnyama zibekwe njengakwimibhalo yam, yonke enye into izakuwela endaweni ngokubhekisele kwezinye izigxeko zikaMnu. Oko kukuthi, ngokweZibhalo kunye nelizwi laBaseki beCawa, ukutolikwa kovuko lokuqala kukuba kwenzeka emva Uhlambulukile umhlaba.

Ke ngoko, uNyana kaThixo Osenyangweni kunye namandla… uya kuyitshabalalisa intswela-bulungisa, enze umgwebo wakhe omkhulu, kwaye uya kukhumbula ebomini amalungisa, athi… azimanye nendoda iminyaka eliwaka, abalawule ngokona kulungileyo myalelo… Inkosana yeedemon, engumqhubi wabo bonke ububi, iya kukhonkxwa ngemixokelelwane, kwaye iya kuvalelwa ngexesha leminyaka eliwaka lolawulo lwasezulwini… Phambi kokuphela kweminyaka eliwaka uMtyholi uya kukhululwa ngokutsha Hlanganisela zonke izizwe zobuhedeni ukuba zenze umlo nxamnye nomzi ongcwele… “Wofika ke umsindo wokugqibela kaThixo kwiintlanga, uzitshabalalise” ihlabathi liza kuhla ngomlilo omkhulu. - ngenkulungwane ye-4 umbhali weCawa, uLactantius, Amaziko obuThixo, The Ante-Nicene Fathers, Umqu 7, iphe. 211

Umnumzana Conte uqinisekisa ukuba "andiqondi ukuba imbandezelo yahlulwe yangamacandelo amabini, ngamaxesha amabini ahlukaniswe ziinkulungwane…" Kwakhona, umfundi wethu wezakwalizwi utsibe kwizigqibo eziphosakeleyo, kuba yile nto kanye ndiyibhalileyo kwiwebhusayithi yam kwaye incwadi yam, ayisekelwanga kwizigqibo zam, kodwa kwinto esele itshiwo ngaBaseki beCawa. Isicatshulwa esingentla sikaLactantius sichaza iXesha loXolo elandulelwa yimbandezelo xa uThixo "eya kutshabalalisa intswela-bulungisa." I-Era ke ilandelwa yimbandezelo yokugqibela, indibano yezizwe zobuhedeni (uGogi noMagogi), abanye ababhali ababona njengabamele "umchasi kristu" wokugqibela emva kweRhamncwa noMprofethi wobuxoki, esele ivele phambi kweXesha loXolo Kwilingo lokuqala okanye kwimbandezelo enkulu (jonga iSityhilelo 19:20).

Ngokwenene siya kuba nakho ukuwatolika la mazwi, “Umbingeleli kaThixo noKristu baya kulawula kunye naye iminyaka eliwaka; Kwaye xa iminyaka eliwaka izalisekile, uSathana uya kukhululwa entolongweni yakhe. ” kuba ngaloo ndlela babonisa ukuba ubukumkani babangcwele kunye nobukhoboka bukaMtyholi buya kuphela ngaxeshanye… baya kuthi ke ekugqibeleni baphume abo bangengabo abakaKrestu, kodwa abaya kuAntichrist wokugqibela…  —St. UAgastiine, abaTata baka-Anti-uNicene, IsiXeko sikaThixo, INcwadi XX, iChap. 13, 19

Kwakhona, ezi azithethi ngokuqinisekileyo, kodwa ziimfundiso ezibekwe liBandla lokuqala elinobunzima obukhulu. Kuya kufuneka sigcine engqondweni oko iCawa isandula ukutsho malunga nexesha lokuthula:

I-Holy See ayikenzi nasiphi na isibhengezo esichazayo malunga noku. —Fr. UMartino Penasa wabuza umbuzo "wolawulo lweminyaka eliwaka" kuKhadinali uJoseph Ratzinger (uPopu Benedict XVI), ngelo xesha, owayenguMphathi weBandla eliNgcwele leMfundiso yeNkolo. Il Segno del Soprannauturale, Udine, Italia, n. 30, iphe. NgoNovemba 10, Ott. Ngo-1990

Ke ngeli xesha sinokuxhomekeka ngokukhuselekileyo kwicala laBaseki beCawe ukuya 'kumhla wokuphumla' ngaphakathi kwemida yexesha, ulwimi olungumfuziselo lweZibhalo eziNgcwele lushiya imibuzo emininzi malunga nexesha lokuphela lingasonjululwanga. Kwaye kuyilo loBulumko:

Uye wazifihla ezo zinto ukuze sihlale silindile, elowo kuthi ecinga ukuba uza kuza ngomhla wakhe. Ukuba ebelityhile ixesha lokuza kwakhe, ukuza kwakhe ngelahlekelwe livumba: bekungasayi kuba yinto yokulangazelela iintlanga kunye nobudala apho iya kutyhilwa khona. Wathembisa ukuba uza kuza kodwa khange atsho ukuba uza kufika nini, kwaye ke zonke izizukulwana kunye neminyaka zimlindele ngolangazelelo. —St. Ephrem, iNkcazo ngeDiatessaron, iphe. 170, Ubungakanani bamaxesha eeyure, Umqulu I

Okokugqibela, uMnu Conte ubhale ukuba ndikhokelwe "kwingcinga engeyonyani yokuba uMchasi-Kristu sele ekhona emhlabeni." (Uyanyanzelisa kwimibhalo yakhe ukuba "uMchasi-Kristu ngekhe abekho ehlabathini namhlanje.") Kwakhona, andizange ndenze ibango elinjalo kwimibhalo yam, nangona ndibonisile kwimiqondiso ebalulekileyo yokwanda kolwaphulo-mthetho emhlabeni nako yiba yimbangi yokusondela ko “mchas 'umthetho.” U-St. Paul uthi uMchasi-Kristu okanye "unyana wentshabalalo" akazukuvela kude kubekho uwexuko emhlabeni (2 Tes 2: 3).

Into endinokuyithetha ngalo mbandela ayisebenzi xa kuthelekiswa nembono yelizwi elinye elinelona likhulu kunelam kuxwebhu olugunyazisiweyo:

Ngubani onokuthi asilele ukubona ukuba eli xesha likhoyo ngoku, nangaphina ixesha elidlulileyo, elihlaselwa sisifo esibi nesendeleyo, ethi ikhule yonke imihla kwaye itye ngaphakathi, idonse intshabalalo? Niyasiqonda, Madoda aqondekayo, siyintoni esi sifouwexuko isuka kuThixo… Xa konke oku kuthathelwa ingqalelo kukho isizathu esihle soloyiko hleze obu bubi bungangathi bungangcamli, kwaye mhlawumbi nokuqala kobubi obugcinelwe imihla yokugqibela; nokuba kungade kubekho umhlaba "uNyana wentshabalalo" athetha ngaye uMpostile. —IPOPA ST. I-PIUS X, E Supremi, i-Encyclical ekubuyiselweni kwazo zonke izinto kuKristu, n. 3, 5; Nge-4 ka-Okthobha ka-1903

 

ISIPHELO

Kwilizwe apho iBandla liya linyulwa, kwaye imfuneko yomanyano phakathi kwamaKristu ibaluleke kakhulu kunakuqala, indothusa kakhulu into yokuba iingxoxo ezinjalo kufuneka zenzeke phakathi kwethu. Ayisiyo ukuba iingxoxo mpazamo. Kodwa xa kuziwa kwi-eschatology, ndiyifumana ingenantsingiselo kunesiqhamo sokuxoxa ngezinto ezinjalo xa kukho izinto ezininzi ezingaziwayo. Incwadi yeSityhilelo ikwabizwa ngokuba yi "Apocalypse." Ilizwi apocalypse lithetha "ukutyhila," ukubhekisa kwisityhilo esenzeka emtshatweni. Oko kukuthi, le ncwadi imangalisayo ayizukutyhilwa ngokupheleleyo ade abe uMtshakazi utyhiliwe ngokupheleleyo. Ukuzama ukufumanisa konke kungumsebenzi ongenakwenzeka. UThixo uyakusityhila kuthi ngesidingo sokwazi isiseko, yiyo loo nto, siqhubeka nokubukela kwaye sithandaza.

Umnumzana Conte ubhale wathi: “Indlela acinga ngayo ngalo mbandela ugcwele ukungazi kunye nempazamo. 'Amazwi akhe abuprofeti awomeleleyo' awangomthombo othembekileyo wolwazi ngekamva. ” Ewe, uMnu Conte uchanekile kweli nqaku. Ukucinga kwam is uzele ukungazi; “amazwi esiprofeto sam” aqinileyo hayi umthombo othembekileyo wolwazi malunga nekamva.

Kungenxa yoko le nto ndizakuqhubeka ndicaphula ooBawo beCawa yokuqala, oopopu, iCatechism, iZibhalo kunye nesityhilelo esizimeleyo ngaphambi kokuba ndibenakho ukwenza izigqibo ngengomso. [Oko ndibhale eli nqaku, ndishwankathele la magunya akhankanyiweyo apha ngasentla "amaxesha okuphela" athi acele umngeni kubuhlwempu bamanye amazwi aphezulu angakhathaleliyo konke kweNkcubeko kunye nezityhilelo ezivunyiweyo.
