oko kusongela ikamva lethu,

ukuba "inkcubeko yokufa"

THE Isilumkiso entliziyweni yam siyaqhubeka nokukhula malunga nenkohliso ezayo, enokuthi ibe yile ichazwe kwi-2 Tes 2: 11-13. Oku kulandelayo emva kwento ebizwa ngokuba “kukukhanya” okanye “isilumkiso” ayisiyixesha nje elifutshane kodwa elinamandla lokushumayela, kodwa limnyama ngokuchasene nokushumayela oko kuya kuthi, ngeendlela ezininzi, kubeyisayo. Inxalenye yokulungiselela loo nkohliso kukwazi kwangaphambili ukuba iyeza:
INkosi uYehova ayenzi nto, ingalityhilanga icebo layo kwizicaka zayo, abaprofeti. Ezi zinto ndizithethile kuni, ukuze ningakhutyekiswa. Baya kunigxotha esikhungwini; ewe, liyeza ilixa laxa nabani na onibulalayo eya kucinga ukuba ukhonza uThixo. Ezo zinto baya kuzenza kuni, kuba bengamazanga uBawo kwanam. Ezi zinto ndizithethile kuni, ukuze, xa lithe lafika ilixa, nizikhumbule ukuba mna ndandinixelele. (Amosi 3: 7; Yohane 16: 1-4)
USathana akayazi nje into ezayo, kodwa kudala eyicwangcisela. Ibonakalisiwe kwi ulwimi iyasetyenziswa…Qhubekeka ukufunda
Isango limxinwa
kwaye indlela inzima
okukhokelela ebomini,
bambalwa ke abalifumanayo.
(Mat 7:14)
Kum kubonakala ngathi le ndlela iye yaba mxinwa, yanzima, kwaye inenkohliso kunangaphambili. Ngoku, iinyembezi nokubila kwabangcwele ziqalisa ukuvela ngaphantsi kweenyawo zomntu; uvavanyo lokwenyaniso lokholo lukabani luba ngumnqantsa; imikhondo enegazi yabafeli-nkolo, isafumile ngamadini abo, ibengezela ngorhatya olubhangayo lwamaxesha ethu. KumKristu namhlanje, yindlela enokuthi izalise umntu ngoloyiko…. okanye ubiza omnye ngokunzulu. Ngolo hlobo, indlela inyathelwa kancinci, oko kungqinwa yimiphefumlo embalwa nembalwa ezimisele ukuthabatha olu hambo, oluthi ekugqibeleni lulandele emanyathelweni eNkosi yethu.

Ndiyibukele nje ividiyo yakho noDaniel O'Connor. Kutheni uThixo eyilibazisa inceba yakhe nobulungisa bakhe?! Siphila kumaxesha amabi ngakumbi kunangaphambi komkhukula omkhulu naseSodom naseGomora. Isilumkiso esikhulu sinokubonakala "sishukumisa" ihlabathi kwaye sibangele ukuguqulwa okukhulu. Kutheni le nto siqhubeka siphila ebubini nasebumnyameni obungaka kweli hlabathi, apho amakholwa angenakukwazi ukuma kwakhona?! U-AWOL uThixo [“uhambe ngaphandle kwemvume”] yaye usathana ubulala amakholwa mihla le, yaye uhlaselo alupheli… Ndilahlekelwe lithemba kwicebo lakhe.
INTONI Ngaba “Isilumkiso” kunye nokuzaliseka kwencwadi ethi UBawo Wethu Osezulwini ziyafana? UMark Mallett noDaniel O'Connor bayacacisa, ngokusekwe kwiSibhalo kunye nezityhilelo ezivunyiweyo zesiprofetho…Qhubekeka ukufunda
UYehova wathetha noYobhi esemoyeni, wathi,
"Ngaba wakha wayalela kusasa ebomini bakho
wasibonisa isifingo indawo yako
ngokuba abambe iziphelo zehlabathi;
Bade bashukunyiswe abangendawo ebusweni bayo?
( Yobhi 38:1, 12-13 )
Siyabulela kuba uNyana wakho uza kuphinda eze ngobungangamsha
gweba abo bangavumiyo ukuguquka baze bavume;
kubo bonke abakuvumayo,
Wakunqula, Wakukhonza enguqukweni, Uya kukwenza
uthi: Yizani, nina nisikelelweyo nguBawo, nilidle ilifa
bobukumkani obalungiselelwa nina kwasekuqalekeni
zehlabathi.

PHA Ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo abapapa benkulungwane ephelileyo bebesebenzisa isikhundla sabo sokuprofeta ukuze bavuse amakholwa kumdlalo oqhubekayo kumhla wethu (jonga Kutheni le nto ooPopu bengekhwaza?). Yidabi lokuthatha isigqibo phakathi kwenkcubeko yobomi kunye nenkcubeko yokufa… umfazi owembethe ilanga-ezabeleni ukuzala ixesha elitsha—Ukuqobisana inamba ufuna ukutshabalalisa ukuba ayizami ukuseka obakhe ubukumkani kunye "nobudala obutsha" (jonga iSityhilelo 12: 1-4; 13: 2). Kodwa ngelixa sisazi ukuba uSathana uza kusilela, uKrestu akazukuphumelela. Ingcwele enkulu yaseMarian, uLouis de Montfort, izakhele kakuhle:
TO Ubungcwele bakhe, uPapa Francis:
