THE ukuzalisekiswa komnqophiso kaThixo nabantu baKhe, oya kuthi uzalisekiswe ngokupheleleyo kuMthendeleko woMtshato weMvana, uqhubekile ukutyhubela iinkulungwane njenge ukuvutha iyancipha kwaye incinci ngokuhamba kwexesha. KwiNdumiso namhlanje, uDavide ucula esithi:
Ulwazisile uYehova usindiso lwakhe, Ubutyhilile emehlweni eentlanga ubulungisa bakhe.
Ukanti, ukutyhilwa kukaYesu kwakusengamakhulu eminyaka kude. Ke ngoku ingaziwa njani usindiso lweNkosi? Yaziwa, okanye endaweni yoko kulindelwe, ngokusebenzisa isiprofeto…
…izinto ezazilangazelela ukujonga kuzo iingelosi. (ukufunda okokuqala)
Ke, xa uKristu wazalwayo, emva koko wabandezeleka, wafa, wavuka kwabafileyo, ekugqibeleni usindiso lwaKhe lwaziswa ehlabathini, akunjalo? Njengoko oNgcwele uPetros wabhalayo kwincwadi yakhe yokuqala:
Ngoko ke, bhinqani izinqe zengqondo yenu, niphile ngokunesidima, niluthembe ngokupheleleyo ubabalo oluziswa kuni ekutyhilekeni kukaYesu Kristu. (ukufunda okokuqala)
Nangona kunjalo, uPetros kunye neBandla lokuqala bafikelela ekuqondeni ukuba icebo eliyimfihlakalo likaBawo, “ukuba azihlanganisele zonke izinto kuye uKristu, ezisemazulwini nezisemhlabeni"U [1]cf. Efe 1:10 bekusafuneka idlule kwizizukulwana ezizayo.
... eNkosini imini enye injengeminyaka eliwaka, neminyaka eliwaka injengemini enye. INkosi ayilibazisi isithembiso sayo, njengoko abanye becinga “ukulibazisa,”… (2 Pt 3:8-9)
Okwasalayo yayikukuba iBandla lizilungiselele njengoMtshakazi ukuzalisekisa inxalenye yakhe yoMnqophiso, owenziwe waba nokwenzeka ngoKristu. Uyakwenza njalo…
… Xa iyakulandela iNkosi yakhe ekufeni nasekuvukeni kwayo. -IKatekism yeCawa yamaKatolikan.677
Kodwa abapostile abazange bakuqonde oku ekuqaleni. “Sishiye yonk’ into sakulandela,” watsho uPetros kwiVangeli. Kodwa uYesu uthi, hayi, kufuneka okungakumbi ukuze icebo losindiso lizaliseke: nihambe niye kuzenza abafundi zonke iintlanga. Yaye xa uthe wakwenza oko, awuyi kufuna nto. Imizi eniyishiyayo, ngenxa yam, yophiwa kalikhulu kubo abazalwana eniya kubabhaptiza; Amakhaya abo aya kuba ngamakhaya amaKristu; imihlaba yabo iya kuba zizizwe zamaKristu; oomama babo baya kukunyamekela njengoko abantwana babo besiba ngabantwana bakho bokomoya. Kodwa ke, ukuze ungabuphathi ubukumkani bam njengobomhlaba, zonke ezi zinto ziya kuza kuwe ngeentshutshiso...
Njengoko iziprofeto zesiBhalo samandulo zijikeleza kwixesha lethu, zibonakala zikhawuleza kwaye zikhawuleza, nathi sinokuhendeka ekucingeni ukuba “isityhilelo sikaYesu Kristu” esipheleleyo siya kwenzeka kwisizukulwana sethu. Kulo mba, ndinqwenela ukumema bonke abafundi bam ukuba babekele bucala imizuzu eli-15, kwaye ngomthandazo bafunde okanye baphinde bafunde ileta yam evulekileyo eya kuPope Francis: Bawo oyiNgcwele othandekayo… Uyeza? Kuba uSuku loMtshato lusondele kunokuba abaninzi becinga, kodwa kwakhona, hayi le nto abaninzi bacinga ukuba…
Isiprofeto siye satsho yatshintsha kakhulu kuyo yonke imbali, ngakumbi ngokubhekisele kuyo ubume kwiCawa yeziko, kodwa isiprofeto asizange sipheliswe. -Niels Christian Hvidt, isifundiswa, Isiprofeto sobuKristu, iphe. Ngo-36, i-Oxford University Press
