MBINI kwiminyaka eyadlulayo, ndabhala Ihlokondiba Elikhulayo. Ndatsho ke ukuba 'i-zeitgeist itshintshile; kukho inkalipho ekhulayo kunye nokunganyamezelani okungena kwiinkundla, ukukhukula amajelo eendaba, nokuchitheka ezitratweni. Ewe, ixesha lifanelekile cwaka ICawa. Ezi mvakalelo zikhona ixesha elithile ngoku, amashumi eminyaka. Kodwa into entsha kukuba bazuzile amandla esihlwele, kwaye xa ufikelela kweli nqanaba, umsindo nokunganyamezelani ziqala ukushukuma ngokukhawuleza okukhulu. '

Xa sijamelene nehlokondiba, inkalipho yethu inokuqothuka, isigqibo sethu sinyamalale, yaye ilizwi lethu liya kuba neentloni, libe lincinci, lize lingavakali. Kuba ngeli lixa, ukuze kukhuselwe izithethe ezingokwesithethe, umtshato, ubomi, isidima somntu, neVangeli ihlangatyezwa ngokukhawuleza ngala mazwi, “Ungubani na ukuba ugwebe?” Kuye kwaba libinzana elixhaphakileyo ukuchasa phantse nakuphi na ukuzithethelela okusekelwe kumthetho wendalo. Iphantse yangathi ukubambelela nkqi ikhona ngokupheleleyo namhlanje, akunamsebenzi nokuba yintoni na, ayinyamezeleki nje ngesidima nje ngokuba yinto egqibeleleyo. Abo bacebisa iVangeli, ngoko, bangoontamo-lukhuni, abanganyamezeliyo, banentiyo, abathandanayo, abakhanyelayo, abangenanceba, kunye nabanqolobi (bona Abahlaziyi), yaye ngoku bagrogriswa ngokuhlawuliswa imali, ukuvalelwa entolongweni nokuhluthwa kwabantwana babo.

Kwaye oku, kwi-2017, kwiHlabathi "elikhanyisiweyo" laseNtshona.

Ukuba siyanikezela kwihlokondiba, ukuba thina maKristu sithe cwaka, oko kuya kubangela umsantsa—oluzaliswe ngokungenakuphepheka. ulawulo olupheleleyo ngenye indlela okanye enye (bona Umshini omkhulu). Kunjengokuba uEinstein watshoyo, “Ihlabathi liyindawo eyingozi, kungekhona ngenxa yabo benza izinto ezimbi, kodwa ngenxa yabo babukeleyo bangenzi nto.” Kwesi sidima sabangcwele uPetros noPawulos, lixesha lokuba mna nawe siphinde sibe nesibindi.

Kule veki, ufundo lweMisa lube luphawu kubo bobabini baka-Abraham, kwaye ngoku ukholo lukaPetros. Njengekhadinali, uPope Benedict wathi:

UAbraham, utata wokholo, kungokholo lwakhe iliwa elibambe isiphithiphithi, isikhukhula esandayo somkhukula wentshabalalo, kwaye ngaloo ndlela sigcina indalo. USimon, owokuqala ukuvuma ukuba uYesu unguKrestu… ngoku uba ngenxa yokholo luka-Abraham, oluhlaziyiweyo kuKristu, iliwa elimelene nomsinga wokungakholwa kunye nokutshatyalaliswa komntu. —UPOPE BENEDICT XVI (UKhadinali Ratzinger), Ukubizwa kuMthendeleko, Ukuqonda iBandla namhlanje, UAdrian Walker, Tr., Iphe. 55-56

Kodwa njengoko uPetros watshoyo, onke amaKristu ayinxalenye yendlu kaThixo eyakhiwe phezu kolu lwalwa.

...njengamatye aphilileyo, makhelwe ngokwenu nibe yindlu eyiyeyomoya, ukuba nibe ngububingeleli obungcwele, ukuze nisondeze imibingelelo eyiyeyomoya, eyamkelekileyo kuye uThixo ngoYesu Kristu. ( 1 Petros 2:5 )

Ngoko ke, nathi sinenxaxheba ekuzibambeni ngasemva ITsunami Yokomoya esongela ukutshayela inyaniso, ubuhle nokulunga.^[1]cf. I-Counter-Revolution Ngaphambi kokuba athathe umhlala-phantsi, uBenedict wongeza le ngcamango:

IBandla lisoloko libizwa ukuba lenze oko uThixo wakucela kuAbraham, kukuqinisekisa ukuba anele amalungisa ukunqanda ububi nentshabalalo. -IPOPE BENEDICT XVI, Ukukhanya kweLizwe, p. 116; udliwano-ndlebe noPeter Seewald

Ndiyanixelela ngoku, kunjalo nina, mntwana kaThixo, ekubhekiswa kuye oku. Ukuba ulindele umfundisi wakho werhamente, ubhishophu wakho, okanye upopu ukuba akhokele indlela, uyaphazama. Inenekazi lethu libeka iitotshi zoMlilo wothando olusuka kwiNtliziyo yakhe eNgenasiphelo ezandleni zabantwana abancinci-nabani na osabelayo kubizo lwakhe. Ngu UGidiyon omtsha khokela umkhosi “ongekho mntu” uye ngqo kwinkampu yotshaba. Uyafowuna nina lube lukhanyiso ebumnyameni; uyafowuna nina ukuphakamisa ilizwi lakho ngenyaniso; uyafowuna nina ukuba ibe lilitye elimeleneyo nomsinga ongacocekanga wokungakholelwa nokulungelelana ngokokuziphatha awalumkisayo uBenedict kuye kwabeka “ikamva lehlabathi emngciphekweni.” ^[2]UPOPE BENEDICT XVI, Intetho kwiCuria yaseRoma, Disemba 20, 2010; bona Ngomhla kaEva

Ke ngoko camngca kunye nam ngeZibhalo zanamhlanje. Bavumele bangene emphefumlweni wakho kwaye bavuselele isibindi sakho. Mabavuthise kuni loo nkalipho nokholo olwathi lwavutha ubomi bukaPetros noPawulos lwavuthisa umkhondo wabafeli-nkolo. Nangona sisazi ukuba uPawulos wayebuthathaka yaye engafezekanga, njengam, mhlawumbi njengani, wazingisa nangona kunjalo.

Mna, Pawulos, sendithululwa ngokomnikelo; nalo ixesha lokunduluka kwam likufuphi. ndikhuphisane kakuhle; ugqatso ndilufezile; ukholo ndilugcinile. (Ufundo lwesibini lwanamhlanje)

Njani?

INkosi yandinceda, yandomeleza, ukuze ngam uvakaliso lweendaba ezilungileyo luzaliseke, neentlanga zonke zive;

Nokuba kungezithunywa zezulu, okanye ngoMoya oyiNgcwele, uYesu uthembisa ukuba ulungiselelo lwaKhe luya kuba nathi kude kube sekupheleni kwexesha, nokuba ingakanani na intshutshiso, inzima kangakanani na iNkanyamba.

Isithunywa sikaYehova siya kubahlangula abo bamoyikayoNdamfuna uYehova, waza wandiphendula, wandihlangula kwiinto zonke endinxunguphala zizo; Isithunywa sikaYehova sibangqinga ngeenxa zonke abamoyikayo, Sibahlangule. Yivani, nibone ukulunga kukaYehova; inoyolo indoda ezimela ngayo. (Indumiso yanamhlanje)

IVangeli—iimfundiso zikaYesu Kristu—asilokhetho luthandekayo, olunye ukhetho lwentanda-bulumko, kodwa ngumyalelo wobuthixo wokuba sisasazeke kuwo wonke umhlaba. UnguThixo, kwaye iLizwi laKhe linguye le icebo kunye noyilo lolonwabo kunye nokuphila komntu, usindiso kunye nobomi obungunaphakade. Akukho mntu—akukho nkundla, akukho zobupolitika, akukho zwilakhe—onokuyoyisa umthetho wemvelo wokuziphatha ochazwe kwiSityhilelo esiNgcwele. Ihlabathi liyaphazama ukuba likholelwa ukuba iBandla liya “ekugqibeleni” lihambe namaxesha; ukuba siza kutshintsha ingoma yethu ibe sisimbonono se-relativism. Kuba "inyaniso iyasikhulula" kwaye, ke, isitshixo esiya kuvula iindlela eziya eZulwini kunye nesitshixo esifanayo esiya kuthi sivalele utshaba olungenasiphelo enzonzobileni. ^[3]cf. ISityhi 20:3

ICawe… ijonge ukuqhubeka nokuphakamisa ilizwi layo ikhusela uluntu, nokuba imigaqo-nkqubo yamazwe kunye noluntu oluninzi luhamba kwelinye icala. Inyaniso, eneneni, itsala amandla kuyo kwaye ayisiyiyo kwimali evumayo. —UPOPE BENEDICT XVI, eVatican, Matshi 20, 2006

Ke, iNyaniso iya kukuzisa ekulweni namandla obumnyama. Kodwa njengoko uPawulos watshoyo,

Iya kundihlangula iNkosi kuso sonke isisongelo esingendawo, indisindisele ebukumkanini bayo obusemazulwini. (Ufundo lwesibini lwanamhlanje)

Kuba uKristu wathembisa:

... phezu kolu lwalwa ndiya kulakha iBandla lam, namasango elabafileyo akayi kuloyisa. (IVangeli yanamhlanje)

Oopopu namahlwempu baya kuza bahambe. Oozwilakhe noozwilakhe baya kuvuka bawe. Uvukelo luya kukhula luphele… kodwa iBandla liya kuhlala lihleli, nokuba lingaba lintsalela, kuba buBukumkani bukaThixo obusele buqalisile emhlabeni.

Lincinci inani labo baqondayo nabandilandelayo… -Inenekazi lethu laseMedjugorje, umyalezo oya kuMarija, nge-2 kaMeyi, 2014

Ke ngoko namhlanje, kwesi sikhumbuzo sikhulu, kuliyure yokuba nina, bantwana bakaThixo, nivuse isibindi, nithabathe ikrele loMoya negunya enilinikwe nguThixo “ukunyathela phezu kweenyoka noonomadudwane, namandla apheleleyo otshaba,” ^[4]cf. ULuka 10:19 kwaye ngobulali, ngomonde, nangokholo olungagungqiyo, zizisa ukukhanya kwenyaniso nothando ebumnyameni—kwanaphakathi kwehlokondiba. Kuba uYesu uyiNyaniso, noThixo uluthando.

Bonke bayamenywa ukuba bajoyine umkhosi wam okhethekileyo wokulwa. Ukuza kobukumkani bam kufuneka kube yeyona njongo yakho ebomini… Musa ukuba ngamagwala. Sukulinda. Ukujongana neqhwithi ukuze usindise imiphefumlo. —UYesu ukuya kuElizabeth Kindelmann, Idangatye Lothando, iphe. 34, epapashwe nguBantwana boBawo weSiseko; U-Archbishop omkhulu uCharles Chaput

. . . kubo bonke abo babekuthanda ukubonakala kweNkosi, uPawulos waseTarso wayengumthandi ongaqhelekanga, umlwi ongoyikiyo, ingqina elingenakuguquguquka. —UPOPE JOHN PAUL II, Homily, ngoJuni 29, 1979; IVatican.va

Wayelilitye. UPetros uliliwa. Kwaye ngokuthethelelwa kweNenekazi lethu, amandla oMoya oyiNgcwele, kunye nesithembiso kunye nobukho bukaYesu, unokuba nawe kwisicwangciso uBawo anaso ngobomi bakho, usebenzisana nesicwangciso sakhe sosindiso lwehlabathi.
