I Rhoqo uve abantu besithi, “Owu ungcwele ngcwele,” okanye “Ungcwele ngcwele.” Kodwa sithetha ngantoni? Ububele babo? Umgangatho wobulali, ukuthobeka, ukuthula? Ingqondo yobukho bukaThixo? Buyintoni ubungcwele?
Ufundo lwanamhlanje lokuqala lucacile into uThixo ayigqala njengobungcwele:
Ize nibe ngcwele, ngokuba ndinguYehova, uThixo wenu. Uze ungebi. Musani ukuthetha amanga, musani ukuthetha bobuxoki omnye komnye. Uze ungafungi ubuxoki ngegama lam… ”[njl.]
Kuba ukuba uThixo uluthando, kwaye athi, Ndingcwele, ngoko ke ukuba nothando kufuneka ube ngcwele.
U-St. Paul ubiza umanyano lomtshato lukaKristu kunye necawe "ngemfihlakalo enkulu"… ubungcwele bulinganiswa 'ngemfihlakalo enkulu' apho uMtshakazi ephendula ngesipho sothando kwisipho soMyeni.. -IKatekism yeCawa yamaKatolika, n. I-773
Ke ubungcwele ngumlinganiselo esithanda ngawo uKristu osinika isipho sothando lwaKhe. Nantsi ke indlela esimthanda ngayo:
Ukuba niyandithanda, yigcineni imithetho yam. (UYohane 14:15)
Ubungcwele kukugcina imiyalelo kaKristu. Kwaye iVangeli yanamhlanje isinika umfanekiso ochanekileyo wokuba iyintoni na loo miyalelo:
Inene, inene, ndithi kuwe, Enoba yintoni na oyenzele omnye waba bazalwana bam bangabona bancinane, ubuyenzele mna.
"Oyena mzalwana mncinci" ngokuqinisekileyo ungqiba kwisitalato. Kodwa ayinguye lowo ulambayo kwaye unxanelwe iqiniso nomninawa omncinane? Kuthekani ngabo bakhululwe beze isidima sabo? Kwaye abo bavalelwe bodwa okanye baguliswa sisono? Ewe, nabo aba balindele abangcwele ukuba baze kubakhulula.
Nangona kunjalo, iya kuba yimpazamo ukunciphisa ubungcwele kwizenzo nje, zibaluleke njengokuba zinjalo. Ubungcwele obuqinisekileyo bukwaphatha a ifihliwe uphawu, into efihliweyo, kwaye loo nto inguThixo. Sesona sithako siphambili esiguqula imisebenzi yethu ibe "yisakramente,” imisebenzi elungileyo ibe lubabalo. Oko kufihlwe kwe-Essence kukho ukuya kwinqanaba lokuba umntu amthande. Ewe, uYesu akazange athi "thanda umakhelwane wakho" kodwa kuqala "thanda iNkosi uThixo wakho ngentliziyo yakho yonke." [1]cf. UMk 12: 30-31 Yiyo le nto yohlula unontlalontle kumKrestu, imizimba exakekileyo kwabangcwele. Yile nto iSt. Paul ibhekisa kuyo njengeyona 'mfihlakalo inkulu':
… Abo babini baya kuba nyama-nye. Oku kuyimfihlakalo enkulu, kodwa ndithetha ngokubhekisele kuKristu nakwibandla. (Kwabase-Efese 5: 31-32)
Ke, ndigcina imiyalelo kaKristu kuba ndifuna ukumthanda. Ndimthanda kakhulu kuba apho ndimfumene khona. Kwaye uyandithanda ngokubuyisela ngokundikhokelela kwindlela yokuthanda kwakhe. Yile nto ithethwa yiNdumiso xa isithi:
Umthetho kaYehova ugqibelele, uhlaziya umphefumlo. Ummiselo kaYehova unyanisekile, unika abangenamava ubulumko. Izimiselo zikaYehova zithe tye, zivuyisa intliziyo; Umyalelo kaNdikhoyo ucacile, uyayikhanyisa iliso.
Ke, ukuhlala nokuhlala eLizwini likaThixo (onguKristu) kundenza ngcwele. Kwaye obu bungcwele, zihlobo ezithandekayo, yile nto ifunwa kakhulu lihlabathi.
“Iingcwele bezisoloko zingumthombo nemvelaphi yohlaziyo kwelona xesha linzima kwimbali yeCawa.” Ngokwenene, "ubungcwele ngumthombo ofihlakeleyo kunye nomlinganiselo ongagqibekanga womsebenzi wakhe wobupostile kunye nenzondelelo yobuvangeli." -Katekisiki yeCawa yamaKatolika, n. I-828
Ukumamela uKristu nokumnqula kusikhokelela ekubeni sizikhethele ngenkalipho, sithathe izigqibo ngamanye amaxesha zobuqhawe. UYesu uyafuna, kuba unqwenela ulonwabo lwethu lwenene. Icawe ifuna abangcwele. Bonke babizelwe ebungcweleni, kwaye abantu abangcwele bodwa banokuhlaziya ubuntu. -YABUSISWA UJOHN PAUL II, uMyalezo weSuku loLutsha kwiHlabathi liphela wowama-2005, eVatican City, Agasti 27, 2004, Zenit.org
