Ibali labapapa abahlanu kunye nenqanawa enkulu

 

PHA yayikhe yaba yiNqanawa eNkulu eyayihlala kwizibuko lokomoya laseYerusalem. Umphathi wayo yayinguPeter kunye neLieutenant ezilishumi elinanye ecaleni kwakhe. Banikwe iKhomishini eNkulu yi-Admiral yabo:

Hambani ke ngoko niye kuzenza abafundi zonke iintlanga, nibabhaptizela egameni loYise, loNyana, loMoya oyiNgcwele; nibafundisa ukuba bazigcine zonke izinto endiniwisele umthetho ngazo. Kwaye yabona, ndinawe yonke imihla, kude kube sekuphelisweni kwephakade eli. (Mat 28: 19-20)

Kodwa uMthetheli wabayalela ukuba bahlale bebambelele kude kube sekufeni kwafika imimoya.

Yabonani, mna ndilithumela kuni idinga likaBawo; ke hlalani ke kuwo umzi, nide nambathiswe amandla aphuma enyangweni. ( IZenzo 24:49 )

Kwaza kwafika. Umoya onamandla, oqhubayo ozalise iiseyile zabo ^[1]cf. KwiZenzo 2:2 kwaye zaziphuphuma iintliziyo zabo ngobukroti. Ejonge kuMthetheli wakhe, owathi wanqwala kuye, uPetros wenjenjeya ukuya kwintla yenqanawe. Ii-ankile zatsalwa, iNqanawa yatyhalwa, kwaye ikhosi yamiselwa, kunye noLieutenants belandela ngokusondeleyo kwiinqanawa zabo. Emva koko wahamba waya kwisaphetha seNqanawa enkulu.

Wesuka wema uPetros nabalishumi elinamnye, waliphakamisa izwi lakhe, wavakalisa kubo… Baya kusindiswa bonke abasukuba belinqula igama leNkosi. ( IZenzo 2:14, 21 )

Ukusuka kolunye uhlanga ukuya kolunye ngoko, babehamba ngomkhombe. Naphi na apho babesiya khona, babethulela amahlwempu imithwalo yabo yokutya, impahla, namayeza, kodwa kwanamandla, uthando nenyaniso, nto leyo eyayifuneka ngamandla ebantwini. Ezinye izizwe zafumana ubutyebi bazo obuxabisekileyo… kwaye zatshintshwa. Abanye babagatya, bada babulala nabathile baBalindi. Kodwa kamsinya nje bakuba bebulewe, abanye baphakanyiswa esikhundleni sabo ukuze bathabathe iinqanawa ezincinane ezazilandela uPetros. Naye wabulawelwa ukholo. Kodwa okumangalisayo kukuba, iNqanawa yabamba indlela yayo, kwaye kwathi kamsinya nje akuba uPetros enyamalele, kwasuka umphathi omtsha wathabatha indawo yakhe kwisaphetha.

Ngokuphindaphindiweyo, iinqanawa zazifika kunxweme olutsha, maxa wambi zisoyise kakhulu, maxa wambi zibonakala zoyisiwe. Abasebenzi batshintsha isandla, kodwa ngokumangalisayo, iNqanawa enkulu eyayikhokela i-Admiral's flotilla ayizange itshintshe indlela, nangona xa uKapteni wayo ngamanye amaxesha wayebonakala elele e-helm. Yayifana “neliwa” phezu kolwandle ekungekho mntu okanye maza anokushukuma. Kwaba ngathi isandla sika-Admiral sasikhokela iSikhephe ngokwaKhe…

 

UKUNGENA KWINKINGA ENKULU

Phantse iminyaka engama-2000 yayidlulile, iBarque enkulu kaPeter inyamezele ezona nkqwithelo zoyikekayo. Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, yayiqokelele intshaba engenakubalwa, ihlala ilandela iNqanawa, abanye bekude, abanye ngequbuliso bagqabhuka kuye ngomsindo. Kodwa uMkhukula Omkhulu awuzange ujike kwindlela yakhe, kwaye nangona ngamanye amaxesha wayethatha amanzi, akazange atshone.

Ekugqibeleni, i-flotilla ye-Admiral yahlala phakathi elwandle. Iinqanawa ezincinci ezincediswa ngabaLieutenants zarhangqa iPeter's Barque. Kwakuzolile… kodwa yayi amanga izolile, kwaye yamkhathaza uMphathi. Kuba macala onke kubo elundini phayaa kwakugquba izaqhwithi yaye iinqanawa zotshaba zazijikeleza. Kwakukho impumelelo ezizweni… kodwa ubuhlwempu basemoyeni babukhula mihla le. Kwaye kwabakho intsebenziswano engaqhelekanga neyoyikekayo phakathi kwezizwe ngoxa kwangaxeshanye kwaqhambuka imfazwe emanyumnyezi namahlelo phakathi kwazo. Enyanisweni, kwavakala amarhe okuba uninzi lwezizwe ezazikhe zathembisa ngokuthobela uMthetheli-mkhosi ngoku zaziqalisa ukuvukela. Kwaba ngathi zonke ezo qhwithela zidibana ukuze zenze isaqhwithi esikhulu—eso uMthetheli-mkhosi wayesixele kwangaphambili kwiinkulungwane ezininzi ngaphambili. Kwaye kukho irhamncwa elikhulu lazamazama ngaphantsi kolwandle.

Wajika wajongana namadoda akhe, ubuso bukaKapteni baba luthuthu. Abaninzi baye balala, kwanaphakathi kooLieutenant. Abanye babetyebile, abanye besonqena, ukanti abanye bengonwabanga, bengasadikwa yinzondelelo yeKomishoni yoMthetheli njengoko babenjalo abanduleli babo. Indyikitya yokufa eyayinwenwela kumazwe amaninzi yayisele ifikelele kwezinye zeenqanawa ezincinane, isifo esoyikekayo nesendele nzulu, esasikhula mihla le, sitya abo bakwinqanawa—kanye njengokuba umanduleli woMphathi walumkisa ngelokuba. ingaba.

Niyaqonda, Bazalwane abaHloniphekileyo, ukuba siyintoni esi sifo—uwexuko evela kuThixo… —IIPOPE ST. IPIUS X, E Supremi, Encyclical Ekubuyiselweni kwezinto zonke kuKristu, n. 3, 5; Nge-4 ka-Okthobha ka-1903

“Kutheni singasahambi ngesikhephe nje?” uKhapteni osandul’ ukunyulwa wazihlebezela njengoko wayejonge iiseyile ezingavakaliyo. Welula isandla ezantsi ukuze abeke izandla zakhe phezu kwentambo. "Ndingubani mna ukuba ndime apha?" Ejonge kwiintshaba zakhe phezu kwebhodi yeenkwenkwezi, kwaye kwakhona kwicala lezibuko, uMphathi oNgcwele wawa ngamadolo.“Nceda uAdmiral…. Andikwazi ukukhokela ezi nqanawa ndedwa. Kwaye kwaoko weva ilizwi kwenye indawo emoyeni ngaphezu kwakhe:

Niyabona, mna ndinani yonke imihla, kude kube sekuphelisweni kwephakade eli.

Yaye njengombane ovela ngaphaya, uMphathi wakhumbula iBhunga elikhulu leeNqanawa elalihlanganisene phantse kwinkulungwane ngaphambili. Apho, baqinisekisa kanye Indima yoMphathi… indima engenakusilela kuba ibikhuselwe nguMthetheli ngokwaKhe.

Imeko yokuqala yosindiso kukugcina ulawulo lokholo lwenyaniso. Kwaye ngenxa yelizwi leNkosi yethu uYesu Kristu, Wena unguPetros, yaye ndiya kulakhela phezu kolu lwalwa ibandla lam, ayinakusilela kwisiphumo sayo, amazwi athethiweyo aqinisekiswa yimiphumo yawo. Kuba kwiSibonelelo sabapostile inkolo yamaKatolika ibisoloko igcinwe ingenasiphako, yaye imfundiso engcwele ihlonelwa. —IBhunga Lokuqala laseVatican, “Ngegunya lokufundisa elingenasiphako likaPontifi waseRoma” Ch. 4, vs. 2

Waphefumlela phezulu uMphathi. Wakhumbula ukuba kwaloo Mphathi owabiza iBhunga leeNqanawa wathi ngokwakhe:

Okunene ngoku lilixa lobubi, negunya lobumnyama. Kodwa yiyure yokugqibela kwaye amandla adlula ngokukhawuleza. UKrestu ongamandla kaThixo nobulumko bukaThixo bukuthi, yaye usecaleni lethu. Zithembe: uloyisile ihlabathi. —UPOPI PIUS IX, Ubi Nos, Iincwadi zoncwadi, n. 14; imvucube.it

“Ukunye nam,” waphefumlela phezulu uKapteni. “Ukunye nam, kwaye Yena uloyisile ihlabathi.

 

AWUKHO WEDWA

Waphakama, walungisa ikepesi yakhe, wahamba waya kutshona kumphambili weNqanawa. Kumgama omde, wayekwazi ukubona kwinkungu engqindilili IiKholamu ezimbini ziphuma elwandle, iNtsika ezimbini eziKhulu eziphezu kwazo. Ikhosi kaBarque yayimiselwe ngabo bangaphambi kwakhe. Phezu kwentsika encinci kwakumi umfanekiso we UStella Maris, Inenekazi lethu "Inkwenkwezi yoLwandle". Kubhalwe phantsi kweenyawo zakhe umbhalo othi, Auxilium Christianorum-“Uncedo lwamaKristu”. Kwakhona, amazwi omanduleli wakhe athi qatha engqondweni yakhe:

Enqwenela ukuzibamba kunye nokususa isaqhwithi sobungendawo esikhoyo… ezithwaxa iCawe kuyo yonke indawo, uMary unqwenela ukuguqula usizi Lwethu lube luvuyo. Isiseko sayo yonke intembeko yethu, njengoko nisazi kakuhle, Bazalwana abahloniphekileyo, sifumaneka kwiNtombi Enyulu enguMariya. Kuba uThixo uphathise uMariya ubutyebi bazo zonke izinto ezilungileyo, ukuze bonke bazi ukuba ngenxa yakhe bazuze lonke ithemba, lonke ubabalo, nalo lonke usindiso. Kuba oku kukuthanda kwakhe, ukuba sizuze zonke izinto ngoMariya. —POPE PIUX IX Ubi Primum, kwiKhompyutha eNgenasiphelo, Encyclical; n. 5; imvucube.it

Ngaphandle kokucinga, uKapteni waphinda izihlandlo ezininzi ephantsi komphefumlo wakhe, “Nanku unyoko, nanku unyoko, nanku umama wakho...” ^[2]cf. Yohane 19:27 Emva koko ejongise amehlo akhe kowona mde weMihlathi emibini, wawajolisa amehlo akhe kuMkhosi Omkhulu owawumi phezulu. Ngaphantsi kwayo kwakukho umbhalo othi: Salus Credentium-“Usindiso Lwabathembekileyo”. Intliziyo yakhe yayizaliswe ngamazwi onke ababemandulele—amadoda amakhulu nangcwele azandla kanye, ezinye zazo zazinegazi, ezazibambe ivili lale Nqanawa—amazwi awayechaza lo mmangaliso umi phezu kolwandle:

Isonka soBomi… uMzimba… uMthombo kunye neNgqungquthela… Ukutya kohambo… iMana yaseZulwini… Isonka seeNgelosi… Intliziyo Engcwele…

Waza uMphathi walila ngovuyo. andindedwa... we ayingodwa. Ejikela ngakubasebenzi bakhe, waphakamisela unkontsho entloko wathandaza uMthendeleko oNgcwele….

 

NGOKUTSHONA KWENTSASA

Ngentsasa elandelayo, uKapteni wavuka, wahamba phezu komgangatho, wema ngaphantsi kweeseyile, esajinga esibhakabhakeni esimnyama. Wabuya wakhangela elundini phaya, akufika amazwi kuye, ngathi lilizwi loMfazi.

Ukuzola ngaphaya kweNkanyamba.

Waqhwanyaza njengoko wayejonge kude, kwelona lifu limnyama nelimangalisayo awakhe wawabona. Kwaye kwakhona, weva:

Ukuzola ngaphaya kweNkanyamba.

Kwangoko uKapteni waqonda. Uthumo lwakhe lwacaca njengokukhanya kwelanga okutyhubela inkungu eshinyeneyo yakusasa. Efikelela kwiSibhalo Esingcwele esasibambelele ngokukhuselekileyo entloko, waphinda wafunda amazwi akwiSityhilelo, iSahluko seSithandathu, indinyana yokuqala ukusa kweyesithandathu.

Wayihlanganisa ke imikhombe ngeenxa zonke kuye, wema phezu kwesaphetha sakhe, wathetha umthetheli ngelizwi elicacileyo, lesiprofeto:

Umsebenzi kaPopu John othobekileyo “kukulungiselela iNkosi abantu abafezekileyo,” kanye okufana nomsebenzi womBhaptizi, umxhasi wakhe nalowo uthatha igama lakhe. Kwaye akunakwenzeka ukuba ucinge ngokugqibeleleyo okuphezulu nangaphezulu okuxabisekileyo kunoloyiso loxolo lobuKristu, oluseluxolweni entliziyweni, uxolo ngolungelelwaniso lwentlalo, ebomini, impilo-ntle, ukuhloniphana, kunye nobuzwe bezizwe . —INGCWELE UYOHANE XXIII, Uxolo LwamaKristu Okwenyanisoe, ngoDisemba 23, 1959; www.catholicculture.org

Ejonge kwiiseyile ezingaphiliyo zeGreat Barque, uMphathi wancuma waza wathi: “Asizukuya ndawo. ngaphandle iiseyile zeentliziyo zethu kunye nale Nqanawa iKhulu zizaliswe kwakhona nge enamandla, eqhuba Umoya. Ke, ndinqwenela ukubiza iBhunga leSibini leeNqanawa.” Kwangoko, ooLieutenants basondela—kodwa ngokunjalo, neenqanawa zotshaba. Kodwa enganikeli ngqalelo encinane kubo, uMphathi wachaza:

Yonke into enokwenziwa liBhunga elitsha leeNkonzo ijolise ekubuyiseleni ubungangamsha obupheleleyo imigca elula nesulungekileyo eyayinobuso beBandla likaYesu ekuzalweni kwayo… —IIPOPE ST. UYOHANE XXIII, Ii-Encyclicals kunye neminye iMiyalezo kaYohane XXIII, mkhusini.org

Wabuya wawaqwalasela amehlo akhe kwiiseyile zomkhombe wakhe, wathandaza ngokuvakalayo.

UMoya oyiNgcwele, vuselela imimangaliso yakho kweli xesha lethu njengakwipentekosti entsha, kwaye unike iBandla lakho, ukuthandaza ngokuzingisileyo nangokuzingisileyo ngentliziyo kunye nengqondo enye kunye noMariya, uMama kaYesu, kwaye okhokelwe nguPeter osikelelekileyo, banokwandisa ubukumkani ngoMsindisi oNgcwele, ulawulo lwenyani kunye nokusesikweni, ulawulo lothando noxolo. Amen. —UAPOPE JOHN XXIII, kwindibano yeBhunga Lesibini laseVatican, Humanae SalutiNgoDisemba 25, 1961

Kwaye kwangoko, a enamandla, eqhuba Umoya waqala ukuvuthuza kumazwe ngamazwe, nakuphesheya kolwandle. Kwaye ukugcwalisa iiseyile ze-Peter's Barque, iNqanawa yaqala ukuhamba kwakhona ukuya kwiiKholam ezimbini.

Kwaye ngaloo nto, uMphathi walala, kwaye omnye wathabatha indawo yakhe ...

 

UKUQALA KWEEMLO ZOKUGQIBELA

Njengoko iBhunga leSibini leeNqanawa lalisondela esiphelweni, uMphathi omtsha wathabatha intambo. Nokuba kwakusebusuku, okanye kwakusemini, wayengaqinisekanga ngokupheleleyo ukuba iintshaba ngandlel’ ithile zakhwela kwiinqanawa ze-flotilla, kunye neBarque kaPetros. Kuba ngequbuliso, uninzi lweecawa ezintle kwiflotilla iindonga zazo zaqatywa mhlophe, imifanekiso yazo eqingqiweyo nemifanekiso eqingqiweyo yaphoswa elwandle, iminquba yazo ifihlwe ezikoneni, nezazo izono zizaliswe yinkunkuma. Umoya omkhulu wenyuka kwiinqanawa ezininzi-ezinye zaqala ukujika kwaye baleka. Ngandlel’ ithile, umbono woMphathi wangaphambili wawuqweqwediswa “ngabaphangi.”

Ngequbuliso, iliza eloyikekayo laqalisa ukushukuma phezu kolwandle. ^[3]cf. Intshutshiso… kunye neTsunami Yokuziphatha! Njengoko yenzayo, yaqalisa ukuphakamisa zombini iinqanawa zotshaba kunye nobuhlobo phezulu emoyeni yaza yabuyela ezantsi kwakhona, ibhukuqa iinqanawa ezininzi. Yayiliza lazaliswa kuko konke ukungcola, elalithwele iinkulungwane zenkunkuma, ubuxoki, nezithembiso ezingento. Ngaphezu kwako konke, yathwala ukufa—ityhefu eyayinokuthintela ubomi ekuqaleni esibelekweni, aze aqalise ukuyiphelisa kuzo zonke izigaba zayo.

Njengoko uMphathi omtsha wayejonge kulwandle, olwaqalisa ukuzala ziintliziyo ezaphukileyo neentsapho, iinqanawa zotshaba zabona ukuba sesichengeni kweBarque, zasondela, zaza zaqalisa ukudubula ivolley emva kokudubula kweenkanunu, iintolo, iincwadi namaphecana. Okumangalisayo kukuba, abanye ooLieutenants, abafundisi bezakwalizwi, kunye nezandla ezininzi zakhwela inqanawa yoMphathi, bezama ukumcenga ukuba atshintshe indlela kwaye akhwele amaza ngaphandle kunye nehlabathi liphela.

Ethathela ingqalelo yonke into, uKapteni warhoxa kwindawo awayehlala kuyo wathandaza… de ekugqibeleni, waphuma.

Ngoku sibuhluzile ngocoselelo ubungqina obuthunyelwe kuthi, sawufundisisa ngenyameko wonke lo mbandela, saza sathandaza rhoqo kuThixo, Thina, ngokomyalelo esiwuphathisiweyo nguKristu, sizimisele ukunika impendulo Yethu kolu luhlu lwemibuzo enzulu. … Kukho isikhalo esikhulu kakhulu ngokuchasene nelizwi leCawa, kwaye oku kongezwa ngeendlela zangoku zonxibelelwano. Kodwa ayothusi iCawe into yokuba yona, engekho ngaphantsi koMseki wayo ongcwele, imiselwe ukuba ibe “ngumqondiso wokuchasana”… Ayinakuze ilunge ukuba ivakalise ukuba kusemthethweni oko enyanisweni kuchasene nomthetho, ekubeni oko, ngomthetho. ubume bayo, isoloko ichasene nokulunga kokwenene komntu. —UAPOPE PAUL VI, IHumanae Vitae, n. I-6, 18

Kwenyuka omnye umoya ovela elwandle, yaye othuke uMphathi, iimbumbulu ezininzi zaqalisa ukubhabha zisiya ngaseBarque. kwiflotilla yakhe. AmaLieutenants amaninzi, acatshukiswa sisigqibo sikaKapteni, abuyela kwiinqanawa zawo aze axelele abasebenzi babo:

… Ikhosi ebonakala ilungile kuye, iyenza ngesazela esilungileyo. —Obhishophu baseKhanada baphendula IHumanae Vitae eyaziwa ngokuba yi "Winnipeg Statement"; INdibano YeSigqeba eyaqhutyelwa eSt. Boniface, eWinnipeg, eKhanada, ngoSeptemba 27, 1968

Ngenxa yoko, iinqanawa ezincinci ezininzi zayeka ukuvuka kwePeter's Barque kwaye zaqala ukukhwela i-wave kunye inkuthazo yeeLieutenants zabo. Yakhawuleza isiphithiphithi kangangokuba wadanduluka uMphathi:

… Umsi kaSathana ungena ungene kwiCawe kaThixo ngeentanda ezisezindongeni. —UPOPE UPAUL VI, iNtshumayelo yokuqala ebudeni beMisa kaSt. UPetros noPaul, ngoJuni 29, 1972

Wabuyela emacaleni omkhombe, wakhangela phandle ulwandle lwesiphithiphithi, kwaye emva koko ukuya kwiKholam eMibini kwaye icamngcwe. Yintoni engalunganga? Kutheni silahlekelwa ziinqanawa? Ephakamisele amehlo akhe ngaselunxwemeni lwezizwe apho imfundiso yoMthetheli yayikhe yaphakama njengomhobe wesizwe owawususa ubumnyama ngoku obukhulayo, wabuza kwakhona: Senza ntoni engalunganga?

Afika ke amazwi kuye, ebonakala ukuba anjalo umoya.

Ulahlekelwe luthando lwakho lokuqala. 

Wancwina uKapteni. "Ewe ... silibele ukuba kutheni sikhona, kutheni le Nqanawa ilapha kwasekuqaleni, kutheni ithwala ezi ziseyile ezinkulu kunye neemasti, kutheni iphethe iimpahla zayo ezixabisekileyo kunye nobutyebi: ukubazisa ezintlangeni.” Kwaye ngoko wadubula ilangatye esibhakabhakeni ngongcwalazi, waza ngelizwi elicacileyo nelinobukroti wathi:

Ukho ukuze ashumayele, oko kukuthi, ukuze ashumayele aze afundise, abe lijelo lesipho sobabalo, axolelanise aboni noThixo, aze aqhubele phambili idini likaKristu kuMthendeleko, osisikhumbuzo sakhe. ukufa novuko oluzukileyo. —UAPOPE PAUL VI, Evangelii Nuntiandi, n. I-14

Kwaye ngaloo nto, uKapteni wabamba ivili lehelm, kwaye waqhubeka eqhuba iBarque ukuya kwiiKholam ezimbini. Ejonge phezulu kwiiseyile, ngoku ubhudla umoya, waphosa iliso kuluhlu lokuqala apho Inkwenkwezi yoLwandle yayingathi ikhazimla njengokukhanya zimbeswe lilanga, wathandaza esithi:

Lo ngumnqweno esiwuvuyelayo ukuphathisa izandla kunye nentliziyo kaMariya Onyulu oSikelelekileyo, ngalo mhla ongcwalisiweyo ngokukodwa kuye nokwasisikhumbuzo seshumi sokuvalwa kweBhunga lesiBini leVatican. Ngentsasa yePentekosti wayebukele ngomthandazo wakhe ukuqalisa kovangelo oluqhutywa nguMoya oyiNgcwele: wanga ungaba yiNkwenkwezi yovangelo oluhlala luhlaziywa, ekufuneka iBandla, liwukhuthalele umthetho weNkosi yalo, liwukhuthaze, ngakumbi kula maxesha. enzima kodwa ezele lithemba! —UAPOPE PAUL VI, Evangelii Nuntiandi, n. I-82

Kwaye emva koko, naye walala ... kwaye uKapteni omtsha wonyulwa. (Kodwa abanye bathi lo Mphathi mtsha wayetyhefwe ziintshaba ngaphakathi kwenqanawa yakhe, kwaye ke, wahlala ephethe i-helm iintsuku ezingamashumi amathathu anesithathu kuphela.)

 

UMNXEBA WETHEMBA

Omnye uKapteni wakhawuleza wamtshintsha, wema kwisaphetha se inqanawa ijonge ngaphesheya kolwandle lwedabi, yadanduluka.

Sukoyika! Vulani banzi iingcango kuKristu! —UYINGCWELE UJOHN PAUL II, eHomily, eSt.Peter's Square, ngo-Okthobha 22, 1978, No. 5

Iinqanawa zotshaba zayeka ukutsha okomzuzwana. Lo yayinguMphathi owahlukileyo. Wayedla ngokushiya isaphetha aze, athabathe iphenyane lokuhlangula, adada phakathi kwezikhephe ukuze akhuthaze ooLieutenant neqela labo. Ubize iindibano rhoqo kunye nemithwalo yezikhephe yabantu abancinci, ebakhuthaza ukuba bajonge iindlela ezintsha kunye neendlela zokuzisa ubutyebi benqanawa emhlabeni. Sukoyika, waqhubeka ebakhumbuza.

Kuthe kusenjalo kwatsho isithonga sokudubula wawa uKapteni. Amaza othusayo ashukuma kwihlabathi lonke njengoko abaninzi bebambe umphefumlo wabo. Ndibambe idayari yodade welizwe lakowabo—idayari eyayithetha nge Inceba ye-Admiral-wachacha impilo yakhe ... kwaye wamxolela umhlaseli wakhe. Wathabatha indawo yakhe kwakhona kwisaphetha, walatha kumfanekiso okwintsika yokuqala (ngoku ekufutshane kakhulu kunangaphambili), waza wambulela ngokusindisa ubomi bakhe, yena “Uncedo lwamaKristu”. Wamnika isihloko esitsha:

Inkwenkwezi yoBuvangeli Obutsha.

Idabi, nangona kunjalo, liye laqina ngakumbi. Ke, waqhubeka elungiselela inqanawa yakhe “ungquzulwano lokugqibela” olwalufikile ngoku:

Kusekupheleni kanye kwewaka lesibini leminyaka apho amafu amakhulu, asoyikisayo ehlangana eluntwini bonke ubumnyama buzehlela emiphefumlweni yabantu. —INGCWELE UJOHN PAUL II, ngokusuka kwintetho (eguqulelwe ngokusuka kwisiTaliyane), ngoDisemba, 1983; www.v Vatican.va

Wazimisela ukuqinisekisa ukuba inqanawa nganye iyayithwala ukukhanya kwenyaniso ungene ebumnyameni. Wapapasha ingqokelela yeemfundiso zikaAdmiral (iCatechism, ababeyibiza njalo) ukuba ixhonywe njengomgangatho okhanyayo kumphambili wenqanawa nganye.

Emva koko, xa wayesondela kwixesha lakhe lokudlula, walatha kwiKholam eMibini, ngokukodwa kwimixokelelwane eyayijinga kwintsika nganye apho iBarque kaPetros yayiza kubotshelelwa khona.

Imiceli mngeni emikhulu ejongene nehlabathi ekuqaleni kwale Millennium intsha isikhokelela ekucingeni ukuba kuphela ngongenelelo oluvela phezulu, olunakho ukukhokela iintliziyo zabo bahlala kwiimeko zongquzulwano kunye nabo balawula ukupheliswa kweentlanga, abanokunika isizathu sethemba ngekamva eliqaqambileyo. —YINGCWELE UJOHANE PAUL II, URosarium Virginis Mariae, 40

Ukunqumama ukujonga inani elikhulayo kunye noburhalarhume botshaba iinqanawa, kumadabi amanyumnyezi aqhambukayo nalawo ayeza kuza, waphakamisa ityathanga elincinane phezulu entloko, waza wajonga ngokuthantamisayo emehlweni oloyiko olwaludanyaza ekukhanyeni okufayo kwemini.

Ngamaxesha apho ubuKrestu ngokwabo babubonakala busemngciphekweni, ukuhlangulwa kwabo kwakubangelwe ngamandla alo mthandazo, kwaye uMama wethu weRosari wabhengezwa njengalowo ukuthethelelwa kwakhe kuzisa usindiso. —Ibhidi. 39

Impilo kaMphathi yayisiba nkenenkene. Ke ngoko ejikela kwikholamu yesibini, ubuso bakhe bakhanyiswa kukukhanya koMkhosi Omkhulu… Inceba. Ephakamisa isandla esingcangcazelayo, wakhomba kwikholamu kwaye wathi:

Ukusuka apha kumele kuphume ‘intlantsi eya kulungiselela ihlabathi ukuza kukaYesu kokugqibela’. (Diary kaFaustina, n. 1732). Le ntlantsi kufuneka ikhanyiswe ngobabalo lukaThixo. Lo mlilo wenceba kufuneka udluliselwe kwihlabathi. —INGCWELE UJOHN PAUL II, Ukunikezelwa kwehlabathi kwiNceba kaThixo, eCracow, ePoland, ngowama-2002; intshayelelo ku Inceba kaThixo kuMphefumlo wam, Idayari yaseSt. Faustina

Waphefumla okokugqibela, wawunikela umoya wakhe. Kwavakala isikhalo esikhulu kwiflotilla. Kwaye okomzuzwana… umzuzwana nje… ukuthula kwathatha indawo yentiyo eyayiphoswa eBarque.

 

ULWANDLE PHEZULU

IiKholamu ezimbini zaziqala ukunyamalala ngamaxesha athile emva kwamaza axokozelayo. Kwathethwa izinyeliso, intlebendwane, nengqumbo ngakuMphathi omtsha owathi cwaka wathabatha umqhubi wenqwelo-moya. Ubuso bakhe babuzolile; ubuso bakhe buzimisele. Umsebenzi wakhe yayikukuhamba ngenqanawa i-Great Barque ngokusondeleyo kangangoko kunokwenzeka kwiiKholam ezimbini ukuze iNqanawa ibingabotshelelwa kuzo ngokukhuselekileyo.

Iinqanawa zotshaba zaqala ukukhwela i-hull ye-Barque ngomsindo omtsha kunye nobudlova. Kwavela iziqhushumbisi ezinkulu, kodwa uKapteni akazange othuke, nangona wayenaye, ngoxa uLieutenant, wayesoloko elumkisa ukuba iNkosana enkulu ngamanye amaxesha yayibonakala ngathi...

… Isikhephe esiza kutshona, isikhephe sithatha amanzi macala onke. -Ukhadinali Ratzinger (UPAPA BENEDICT XVI), Matshi 24, 2005, ukucamngca ngoLwesihlanu olungileyo ngokuwa kwesithathu kukaKristu

Kodwa ngesandla sakhe sibambelele entloko, uvuyo lwamzalisa... uvuyo ababelwazi abamanduleli bakhe, nolo wayesele eluva ngaphambili:

…isithembiso sikaPetrine kunye nokubonakaliswa kwayo ngokwembali eRoma kuhlala kweyona nqanaba linzulu intsusa ehlala ihlaziywa yovuyo; amandla esihogo akayi kusoyisa... —UKhadinali Ratzinger (POPE BENEDICT XVI), Ubizelwe eMthendelekweni, Ukuqonda ICawa Namhlanje, Ignatius Press, iphe. 73-74

Kwaye ke naye weva kuMoya:

Niyabona, mna ndinani yonke imihla, kude kube sekuphelisweni kwephakade eli.

Wathobeka phambi kwe imfihlelo yomqhubi, amadoda abehamba phambi kwakhe, wawaxabela amakhuko, wadanduluka kweyakhe imfazwe;

IiCaritas ezikwiVenisa... uthando ngenyaniso!

Ewe, uthando beluya kuba sisixhobo esinokuphosa utshaba kwisiphithiphithi kwaye sinike iBarque enkulu ithuba lokugqibela lokothula imithwalo yayo ezizweni… Kuba, wathi,

Nabani na ofuna ukuphelisa uthando ulungiselela ukuphelisa umntu enjalo. -POPE BENEDICT XVI, Incwadi Encyclical, UDeus Caritas Est (UThixo uluthando), n. 28b

“AbaLieutenant mabangabi phantsi kwenkohliso,” utshilo. "Eli lidabi, mhlawumbi alifani nalo naliphi na elinye." Kwaye ke incwadi yahanjiswa kuwo amadoda ngesakhe isandla;

Kwimihla yethu, xa kwiindawo ezinkulu zehlabathi ukholo lusemngciphekweni wokufa njengelangatye elingasenayo ipetroli, eyona nto iphambili kukwenza uThixo abekhona kweli lizwe nokubonisa amadoda nabafazi indlela eya kuThixo… Ingxaki yokwenyani ngalo mzuzu wembali yethu kukuba uThixo uyanyamalala ebantwini, kwaye, ngokufiphala kokukhanya okuvela kuThixo, uluntu luphulukana nokuthwala, kunye neziphumo ezibonakala zonakalisayo. -Incwadi Yobungcwele Bakhe uPapa uBenedict XVI oya kubo bonke oBhishophu beHlabathi, NgoMatshi 10, 2009; AmaKatolika kwi-Intanethi

Kungokunje ulwandle beluyizidumbu; umbala wawo ubomvu buthuntu emva kweminyaka yemfazwe, intshabalalo, nokubulala—ukususela kwabona bamsulwa nabancinane, ukusa kwabakhulileyo nabasweleyo. Kwaye apho phambi kwakhe, a lwanyana kwabonakala ngathi kunyuka phezu komhlaba, kunye nenye lwanyana Zazanyazanyiswa elwandle ngaphantsi kwazo. Yajija kwaye yajija kwikholamu yokuqala, yaza yabaleka kwakhona isiya eBarque idala ukudumba okuyingozi. Athi qatha amazwi omanduleli wakhe.

Lo mzabalazo uhambelana nomlo ongaphefumlelwanga ochazwe ku [Rev 11: 19-12: 1-6, 10 kwidabi phakathi "komfazi owambethe ilanga" kunye "nenamba"]. Ukulwa amadabi okuBulala uBomi: "inkcubeko yokufa" ifuna ukuzinyanzelisa kumnqweno wethu wokuphila, kwaye siphile ngokugqibeleleyo. —SAINT JOHN PAUL II, Cherry Creek State Park Homily, Denver, Colorado, 1993

Kwaye ke waliphakamisa ilizwi lakhe elithambileyo, lizama ukuba livakale ngaphezu kwengxolo yedabi.

… Ngaphandle kwesikhokelo sothando lwenene, lo mbutho wehlabathi ungadala umonakalo ongazange ubonwe kwaye udale iyantlukwano entsha kusapho loluntu… ubuntu buqhuba imingcipheko emitsha yobukhoboka nokuphathwa kakubi… -IPOPE BENEDICT XVI, IiCaritas ezikwiVenisa, n. 33, 26

Kodwa ezinye iinqanawa zazixakeke kakhulu ngamadabi awayezijikelezile, ngokufuthi zihlasela ngamazwi nje kunokuba zihlasele ngamadabi. Uthando lwenyaniso wakhwaza uKapteni. Waza ke wajikela kwamanye amadoda awayekhwele kwiBarque emi kufutshane. “Owona mqondiso woyikekayo wamaxesha,” watsho, “kukuba . . .

….akukho nto injengobubi ngokwayo okanye okulungileyo kukodwa. Kukho kuphela "okungcono kune" kunye "okubi ngaphezu." Akukho nto ilungileyo okanye imbi ngokwayo. Yonke into ixhomekeke kwiimeko kunye nesiphelo kwimbono. —UPOPE BENEDICT XVI, Idilesi eya kwiRoyal Curia, nge-20 kaDisemba ka-2010

Ewe, wayebalumkisile ngaphambili "ngobuzwilakhe obukhulayo be-relativism", kodwa ngoku yayivezwa ngamandla anjalo, ukuba kungekuphela nje ilanga kodwa "ingqiqo" ngokwayo yayisithwe. IBarque kaPeter, eyayikhe yamkelwa umthwalo wayo oxabisekileyo, ngoku yayihlaselwa ngokungathi yayithwele ukufa. “Ndidiniwe yaye ndaluphele,” wazityand’ igila kwabo basondeleyo kuye. “Umntu owomeleleyo kufuneka athabathe intambo. Mhlawumbi umntu onokubabonisa oko kuthethwa ngako uthando ngenyaniso.”

Kwaye ngaloo nto, wathatha umhlala-phantsi kwikhabhathi encinci ngaphakathi kweNqanawa. Kanye ngelo xesha, kwabakho umbane ovela ezulwini wabetha imasti enkulu. Uloyiko kunye nokubhideka kwaqalisa ukushukuma kulo lonke inqanawa njengoko ilitha elifutshane lokukhanya lalikhanyisela ulwandle lonke. Iintshaba zazikho kuyo yonke indawo. Kwabakho iimvakalelo zokulahlwa, ukudideka nokuxhalaba. Ngubani oza kubamba iNqanawa kwezona mimoya inamandla yeSiqhwithi…?

 

ISICWANGCISO ESINGASILINDELEKANGA

Akukho namnye owamaziyo uMphathi omtsha kwisaphetha. Enxibe ngokulula kakhulu, wajika wajonga kwiMihlathi eMibini, waguqa, wacela yonke iflotilla ukuba imthandazele. Wathi akuma, ooLieutenant nawo wonke umkhosi weenqwelomoya walinda isikhalo sakhe sedabi kunye nesicwangciso sohlaselo ngokuchasene notshaba oluhlala lungena.

Ephosa amehlo akhe phezu kwemizimba engenakubalwa kunye namanxeba adada elwandle phambi kwakhe, wajika wajonga kwiiLieutenants. Abaninzi babonakala kuye becocekile kakhulu edabini—ngokungathi abazange bawashiye amagumbi abo okanye badlulele ngaphaya kwamagumbi okucwangcisa. Bambi bade bahlala ezitroneni ezibekwe ngentla kweentloko zabo, bebonakala behlulwe kwaphela. Ke ngoko, uKapteni wathumela imizobo yababini bangaphambi kwakhe—abo babini baprofeta ngewaka leminyaka elizayo loxolo-waye wawaphakamisa ukuze abone yonke i-flotilla.

UYohane XXIII noYohane Paul II abazange boyike ukujonga amanxeba kaYesu, ukubamba izandla zakhe ezikrazukileyo kunye necala lakhe elihlatyiweyo. àbabanga nazintloni ngayo inyama kaKristu, ababanga nazintloni ngaye, ngenxa yomnqamlezo wakhe; abayidelanga inyama yomzalwana wabo (cf. ngu-58: 7), kuba babona uYesu kubo bonke abantu ababandezelekileyo nabatsala nzima. —UPOPE FRANCIS ekumiselweni kwabangcwele kooPopu uJohn XIII noJohn Paul II, ngoAprili 27, 2014, ityuwa.inlight

Ejikela kwakhona kwiNkwenkwezi yoLwandle, aze emva koko abhekise kuMkhosi Omkhulu (abathi abathile baqalisa ukushukuma), waqhubeka:

Ngamana omabini [la madoda] angasifundisa ukuba singakhutyekiswa ngamanxeba kaKristu size singene nzulu ngakumbi kwimfihlelo yenceba yobuthixo, ehlala inethemba yaye ixolela ngokuqhubekayo, kuba isoloko inothando. —Ibhidi.

Emva koko wathetha ngokulula nje: “Masibahlanganise abo benzakeleyo.”

OoLieutenant abaliqela batshintshiselana ngokukhwankqisayo. "Kodwa... akufanelanga ukuba sigxile edabini?" wanyanzelisa enye. Omnye wathi, “Kapteni, singqongwe lutshaba, yaye akubambi mabanjwa. Ngaba akumelanga ukuba siqhubeke sibabuyisela umva ngokukhanya kwemilinganiselo yethu?” Kodwa uKapteni akazange athethe nto. Kunoko, waguqukela kumadoda ambalwa awayekufuphi waza wathi, “Khawulezisa, kufuneka siziguqule iinqanawa zethu izibhedlele zasendle ngenxa yabenzakeleyo. Kodwa bamjonge ngamehlo abomvu. Ngoko waqhubeka:

Ndikhetha iBandla eligruzukile, elibuhlungu nelimdaka kuba beliphume ezitalatweni, kunokuba ibe yiCawe engenampilo ekuvalelweni nasekubambeleleni kukhuseleko lwayo. -IPOPE FRANCIS, U-Evangelii Gaudium, n. I-49

Ngenxa yoko, ooLieutenant abaliqela (ababeqhele ukwenza amabala negazi) baqalisa ukuhlola iinqanawa zabo kwaneendawo zabo zokuhlala ukuze babone indlela ababenokuzijika ngayo zibe yindawo yokusabela yabenzakeleyo. Kodwa abanye baqala ukurhoxa kwiBarque kaPetros, bahlala kude kakhulu.

“Khangela!” yakhala enye yeescouts phezu kwendlwana kanomyayi. “Bayeza!” Isihlenga emva kwe-raft yabenzakeleyo yaqala ukutsala kufuphi neBarque ye UPetros—abanye abangazange balunyathele unyawo kwiNqanawa nabanye abazishiyayo iinqanawa kudala, ukanti abanye ababephuma kwinkampu yotshaba. Bonke babesopha, abanye bebhobhoza, abanye begcuma ziintlungu ezingathethekiyo nosizi. Amehlo kaKapteni agcwala iinyembezi njengoko wayesondela ezantsi eqalisa ukutsala abanye babo ukuba bakhwele.

"Inga wenzantoni?" bakhwaza abasebenzi abaninzi. Kodwa uKapteni wajika waya kubo waza wathi. "Kufuneka sibuyisele imigca elula nesulungekileyo ubuso bale flotilla babenayo ekuzalweni kwayo."

Kodwa bona ngaboni!

“Khumbula ukuba kutheni sikhona,” waphendula.

“Kodwa bona—balutshaba, mhlekazi!”

"Sukoyika."

“Kodwa bangamasikizi, bangamasikizi, banqula izithixo!”

"Umlilo wenceba kufuneka udluliselwe emhlabeni."

Ejikela ngakubasebenzi bakhe abamehlo oyikayo ayethe ntsho kuye, watsho ngokuzolileyo kodwa ngokuqinileyo, “Uthando ngenyaniso,” waze wajika watsalela umphefumlo ongcungcuthekileyo ezingalweni zakhe. “Kodwa kuqala, uthando,” Watsho ethe cwaka ejongisa ngakuMzi oMkhulu engajonganga phezulu. Wayicinezela esifubeni sakhe, wasebeza:

Ndibona ngokucacileyo ukuba eyona nto iBandla liyidinga kakhulu namhlanje kukukwazi ukuphilisa amanxeba nokufudumeza iintliziyo zabathembekileyo; ifuna ukusondela, ukusondela. Ndiyibona iCawe njengesibhedlele sasendle emva kwedabi… Kufuneka upholise amanxeba akhe. Emva koko sinokuthetha ngayo yonke enye into. Philisa amanxeba, philisa amanxeba ... —UPOPA UFRANCIS, udliwano-ndlebe naye Umhlobo Wenene.comNgoSeptemba 30th, 2013

 

I-SYNOD YAMA-LIEUTENANTS

Kodwa isiphithiphithi saqhubeka phakathi kwamaqela njengoko iingxelo zazisasazeka kwiindawo ezikude zokuba iBarque of Peter yayingahlanganisi nje abo benzakeleyo—kodwa kwaneentshaba. Ke ngoko uMphathi wabiza iSinodi yooLieutenants, ebamemela kwindawo yakhe yokuhlala.

“Ndibize le ndibano ngeenjongo zokuba sijongane kakuhle nabo benzakeleyo. Kumadoda, yiloo nto uMthetheli-mkhosi asiyalela ukuba siyenze. Wezela abagulayo, kungekhona abaphilileyo—ibe nathi simele senjenjalo.” Abanye ooLieutenant bajonga ngokukrokra. Kodwa wahlabela mgama wathi, “Thethani iingqondo zenu madoda. Andifuni nto iphuma etafileni.”

Eqhubela phambili, omnye uLieutenant wacebisa ukuba mhlawumbi umgangatho wokukhanya obekwe kwizaphetha zeenqanawa zabo wawukhupha isibane esiqatha kakhulu, kwaye mhlawumbi kufanele sithotywe—“ukuba samkeleke ngakumbi,” wongezelela. Kodwa omnye uLieutenant waphendula wathi, “Umthetho kukukhanya, yaye ngaphandle kokukhanya, kukho ukuchas’ umthetho! Njengoko iingxelo zeengxubusho ezizicaceleyo zazisiya phandle, oomatiloshe abaninzi ababekhwele ezinqanaweni baqalisa ukuphakuzela. “UKapteni uza kucima isibane,” wahleka watsho omnye. “Uza kuyiphosa elwandle,” wakhala omnye. “Asinamphini wokulilawula! Siza kwaphukelwa yinqanawa!” kwaphakama enye ingoma yamazwi. “Kutheni uKapteni engathethi nto? Kutheni uMthetheli-mkhosi engasincedi nje? Kutheni uKapteni elele entloko?"

Kwabakho uqhwithela olukhulu elwandle, ngokokude umkhombe ugutyungelwe ngamaza; wayelele ubuthongo. Beza ke bamvusa, besithi, Nkosi, sisindise; Siyatshabalala!” Athi kubo, Yini na ukuba nibe ngamagwala, bantundini balukholo luncinane? ( Mateyu 8:24-26 )

Ngequbuliso, kwavakala ilizwi elinjengelendudumo kwabathile ababekho: Wena unguPetros, kwaye phezu kolu lwalwa ndiya kulakhela ibandla lam, namasango elabafileyo akayi kuloyisa.

“Ngumoya nje,” watsho omnye. “Ngokucacileyo, ukukrazuka kwemasti nje,” watsho omnye.

Emva koko ooLieutenant baphuma kwindawo yokuhlala iSikhephe belandelwa nguKapteni. Zonke iinqanawa eziseleyo zaqokelelana ngakuye de wada wathetha. Ngoncumo oluthambileyo, wajonga ngasekhohlo waza wajonga ngasekunene kwakhe, efundisisa ngenyameko ubuso bamaLieutenants. Kwakukho uloyiko kwabanye, ulindelo kwabanye, ukubhideka kusasele kwabambalwa.

Wathi: “Madoda, ndinombulelo kuba uninzi lwenu luye lwathetha ngokusuka entliziyweni, njengoko ndabuzayo. Sikwidabi elikhulu, kummandla esingazange siwuhambe ngesikhephe ngaphambili. Kubekho amaxesha okufuna ukuhamba ngesikhephe ngokukhawuleza, ukoyisa ixesha ngaphambi kokuba ixesha lilunge; amaxesha okudinwa, umdla, intuthuzelo. ”… Kodwa ke ubuso bakhe baba serious. "Kwaye ke, sikwajongene nezilingo ezininzi." Ejikela kweyakhe khohlo, wahlabela mgama esithi, “Isilingo sokukrazula okanye ukufiphalisa ukukhanya kwenyaniso sicinga ukuba ukukhanya kwayo kuya kudinisa, kunokubafudumeza abo benzakeleyo. Kodwa bazalwana, yiloo nto...

... utyekelo olutshabalalisayo lokulunga, oluthi egameni lenceba ekhohlisayo lubophe amanxeba ngaphandle kokuwaphilisa kuqala kwaye ... —UPOPE FRANCIS, iNtetho yokuvala kwiSinodi, iArhente yeNdaba yamaKatolika, ngo-Oktobha 18, 2014

UKapteni wajonga kwindoda emi yodwa ngasemva, ingcangcazela yimvula eyayiqalisa ukuna, wajika wajonga kweyakhe. kunene. “Kodwa siye sajongana nesihendo kunye noloyiko lokugcina abonzakeleyo bengekho kwidesika yethu,….

…ukungaguquguquki okunobutshaba, oko kukuthi, ukufuna ukuzivalela ngaphakathi kwegama elibhaliweyo. —Ibhidi.

Emva koko ujikela ngakwi iziko weNqanawa kwaye ephakamisele amehlo akhe ngakwiMast emile okomnqamlezo, waphefumlela phezulu. Ewajongele phantsi amehlo ooLieutenants (abanye, ababejonge phantsi), wathi, “Nangona kunjalo, asikokuba uKapteni atshintshe iKomishoni yoMthetheli-mkhosi, engapheleli nje ekuziseni imithwalo yethu yokutya, impahla, namayeza. kumahlwempu, kodwa kwanobutyebi nyaniso. UKapteni wakho ayiyonkosi eyongamileyo…

…kodwa ke umkhonzi ophakamileyo – “umkhonzi wabakhonzi bakaThixo”; umqinisekisi wentobeko kunye nokuhambelana kweCawa nentando kaThixo, kwiVangeli kaKristu, kunye neSiko leBandla, ukubekela bucala konke ukuthanda komntu, nangona yena - ngentando kaKristu ngokwakhe - "oyena mkhulu. UMfundisi noMfundisi wabo bonke abathembekileyo” kwaye nangona besonwabela “amandla aphezulu, azeleyo, akhawulezileyo, naqhelekileyo eCaweni”. —UPOPA UFRANCIS, evala intetho kwiSinodi; I-Arhente yeendaba yamaKatolika, nge-18 ka-Okthobha ka-2014 (ugxininiso lwam)

“Ngoku,” watsho, “Singxwelerhekile ukuba sikhathalele, kunye nedabi lokuphumelela—kwaye siyakuphumelela, kuba uThixo uluthando, kwaye. uthando soze lwehluleka. " ^[4]cf. 1 Kor 13:8

Emva koko waguqukela kuyo yonke i-flotilla, wakhwaza: Yeha, bazalwana, ngubani na ongakum, ngubani na ochasene nam?
