Uthando Lukhule Lubanda-Ilizwi Ngoku

PHA siSibhalo esihlala entliziyweni yam kangangeenyanga ngoku, endinokuthi ndiwuthathe njengowona “mqondiso wamaxesha”:

Kuya kuvela abaprofeti ababuxoki babe baninzi, balahlekise abantu abaninzi; nangenxa yokwanda kobubi; luya kuphola uthando lwabaninzi. (Mat 24: 11-12)

Into abantu abaninzi abasenokungayinxulumani “ngabaprofeti bobuxoki” ‘nokwanda kobubi. Kodwa namhlanje, kukho unxibelelwano oluthe ngqo.

Abaprofeti bobuxoki

UYesu akachazi ukuba uthetha ukuthini “ngomprofeti wobuxoki” apha, kodwa ezinye iindima zinika umongo othe chatha.

Ke kaloku balumkeleni abaprofeti ababuxoki, abeza kuni ngezambatho zeegusha, ngaphakathi ke ziziingcuka eziqwengayo. (Mat 7:15)

Kwaye kwakhona,

False oomesiya kuya kuvela abaprofeti ababuxoki, benze imiqondiso nemimangaliso yokulahlekisa nabanyuliweyo, ukuba bekunokwenzeka. (Mat 24:24)

Okwangoku, owona mongo mkhulu kukubuyela emva. Ndingatsho ukuba abona baprofeti bobuxoki bayingozi kakhulu ngabo baye bavela mva nje iminyaka: oomesiya behlabathi abathi, phantsi kwesizathu “sokhathalelo lwempilo” kunye “nokusindisa iplanethi” (okt. iingcuka ezambethe ufele lwegusha) bakhohlise abaninzi ngesixhobo ukoyika. Ukuba ungabaqinisekisa abantu ukuba banokufa ukusuka komnye umzuzu ukuya kwesinye, okanye ukuba iplanethi iya kungena kuyo nayiphi na imini ukusuka "ubushushu bukazwe lonke", ke aba mesiya banokusebenzisa amandla amakhulu kunye nolawulo phezu kwabantu bonke. Oku kwenzeke ngokulula kule minyaka mine idlulileyo, kangangokuba umntu akanakuzibamba kodwa abuyele kwintetho yombhali nomprofeti waseKhanada, uMichael D. O'Brien, ukuze aqonde into eqhubekayo ngoku:

Abo baqalisa ukwakhiwa koluntu olufanelekileyo lweplanethi… beqhutywa likratshi elisondela kwinqanaba lobusathana […] banokutyhalela phambili, babeke ucwangco olutsha nokuba bathini na inkcaso, bechitha naziphi na iingxoxo ezibambekayo ezinokubekwa phambili. Kwaye ukuba ukuxhathisa kunamandla, intonga enkulu kakhulu iya kufuneka. Kuya kubakho ukuvalelwa kwabo bakuchasayo (okanye kwanokuchasa) oko kugqalwa “njengokulunga okuqhelekileyo.” Abalawuli abatsha baya kuthethelela ukulahlekelwa kwenkululeko ngokukhuthaza kuyo yonke indawo inkohliso yokuba ukufezekiswa okuyimpumelelo kwephupha yeyona nto iphezulu, ifanele nayiphi na idini. ( “Kulunge ngakumbi ukuba kufe umntu omnye, kunokuba kutshabalale uhlanga luphela,” watsho uKayafa [ Yoh 11:50 ]). Iguqulelwe kumagama ale mihla: “Kulunge ngakumbi ukuba iintlanga zife, kuze kufa abanye abantu bazo, kunokuba siphulukane neli thuba lethu lokulawula ihlabathi.” Ukuqulunqwa kunye nokuphila ngokuziphatha okugqwethekileyo "kwesiphelo sithethelela iindlela", baya kuzithatha njengababoni bokwenyani, abasindisi behlabathi. Kwibinzana elithile, oku kubumesiya behlabathi. -UMichael D. O'Brien, Ihlabathi kunye noMyalelo weHlabathi oMtshaMatshi 17, 2009

O'Brien imibhalo esemazantsi ukuya n. 676 kwi IKatekism yeCawa yamaKatolika:

Inkohliso yomchasi-Kristu sele iqala ukubonakala emhlabeni ngalo lonke ixesha ibango lenziwa ukuba liqonde ngaphakathi kwimbali elo themba likaMesiya elinokufezekiswa ngaphaya kwembali ngesigwebo se-eschatological. Icawe iyazikhaba ngaw 'omane iindlela eziguqulweyo zobu buxoki bobukumkani ukuba bube phantsi kwegama le-millenarianism, ngakumbi uhlobo lwezopolitiko "olugwenxa ngokwasemphefumlweni" lobuMesiya.

Nakwixesha elizayo Isahluko soxolo xa uBawo Wethu ezaliseka kwaye iCawa iya kubona Intando Yakhe Yobuthixo kulawula “emhlabeni njengokuba kusezulwini” ( Mat 6:10 ), indalo iya kuba isekwimo yohambo; umntu useza kuba namandla okuvukela.^[1]cf. Emva koko The Iminyaka Eliwaka, kukho imvukelo yokugqibela: cf. ISityhilelo 20:7-10 Ke ngoko, umbono we-utopian transhumanist unikezelwa eluntwini ngoku phantsi kwebhanile ye "Ukuseta kwakhona okuhle” lunazo zonke iimpawu “zenkohliso yabachasi-Kristu.” Oopopu abaliqela, ingenguye noyena uBenedict XVI, bathetha kakhulu:

Sibona indlela amandla kaMchasi akhula ngayo, kwaye sinokuthandaza kuphela ukuba iNkosi isinike abelusi abomeleleyo abaya kukhusela ibandla lakhe ngeli xesha lesidingo kumandla obubi. —IPOPE EMERITUS BENEDICT XVI, I-American Conservative, NgoJanuwari 10th, 2023

Uyaqhubeka uO'Brien:

Kungokwemvelo koomesiya behlabathi ukukholelwa ukuba, ukuba uluntu aluyi kusebenzisana, ngoko uluntu lumele lunyanzeliswe ukusebenzisana—ukuze lulungelwe lona, kakade... Bamele bathabathe ingcinga ethandwayo ngemigaqo emitsha yehlabathi, etshayela kuthi tu. uqhankqalazo lwabo babambelela kwimilinganiselo yokuziphatha engokwesithethe, besiphosa “kwimfumba yenkunkuma yembali,” nokumisela ukuziphatha kakuhle okuyingozi endaweni yako (umzekelo, indalo esingqongileyo njenge-eco-spirituality, okanye ukuchaswa kwesini “njengenkululeko. ”)… UGK Chesterton wakha wabhala wathi xa abantu beyeka ukukholelwa kuThixo, abakholelwa kwinto yonke; baya kukholelwa kuyo nantoni na. Ukumiselwa kolungelelwaniso olutsha lwezobupolitika nolungelelwaniso lwehlabathi elitsha lonqulo akulovumba nje lobuzwilakhe. Inevumba elahlukileyo le-apocalypse. -UMichael D. O'Brien, Ihlabathi kunye noMyalelo weHlabathi oMtshaMatshi 17, 2009

Isiphumo Sokuphela: Uthando Lukhule Kubanda

Ayiloluntu lwethu kuphela kodwa iintsapho ezininzi zahlulwa yimigaqo-nkqubo ye-COVID. Unanamhla oku, ezinye izalamane azisathethisani. Inkohliso enamandla yoomesiya behlabathi yalele kanye kwisigidimi sabo seyure sokuba sonke simele “senze indima yethu” nokuba “Akukho namnye uya kusala ngasemva. Hayi nokuba njani engekho ngqiqweni, ayinanzululwazi, okanye uvavanyo imiyalelo yabo yayikukuba, ukubachasa kwakufana nokuba ngumnqolobi wokulunga kwabantu bonke (njengoko ii-ankile zeendaba ezithobelayo zazisikhumbuza mihla le).

Ngaphezu koko, kunye neVatican ukuxhasa la manyathelo okuqala ehlabathi aphikisanayo (nangona abanye oobhishophu sele beqalisile xolisa), idibene ne uhlengahlengiso oluqhubekayo phezu kopopu kaPope uFrancis ngokubanzi, kuye kwaqhambuka iyantlukwano phakathi kwezihlalo. Kwaye oku phakathi uthembekile AmaKatolika. ICawe, ubunye bayo benzelwe ukuba bube ngumthombo othe rhoqo wobungqina kwihlabathi, iphakathi iingozi eziyingozi kubangela ukuphoxeka kunye nokudimazeka.

Faka revolution transhumanist, ndawonye nobukrelekrele bokwenziwa, ukuguqulwa kwemizila yemfuza kwiDNA yomntu, nokugatywa kwesini sebhayoloji, yaye sibona “imiqondiso nemimangaliso emikhulu ngokokude ilahlekise, ukuba bekunokwenzeka, kwanabanyuliweyo.” Kwinkonzo yayo kukho amajelo eendaba ezentlalo kunye neendaba, ezenzelwe izixhobo ezinamandla zengqondo ukuxhaphaza uluntu. Ukruthakruthwano phakathi kwabantu luphezulu - lubonakala kumajelo eendaba ezentlalo apho olona nxibelelwano luyingozi lwenzeka khona. Yongeza kolu ngquzulwano isibetho sephonografi nokwanda kogonyamelo olugqithiseleyo “njengokuzonwabisa.”

Konke oku kwenze ukuba abantu bangabi nabuntu, kwaye umphumo wolu manyano lwehlabathi olungahloneli Thixo lube kukuphola kobudlelwane babantu: Uthando lwabaninzi luye lwaphola.

ITestamente eNdala kunye neNtsha iprofetha ukuba kuya kufika ixesha embalini apho “iintliziyo zabantu ziya kubanda” kwaye baya kuphuthuma ukupheliswa kwegunya elingcwele phezu koluntu, befuna ukumshenxisa uThixo etroneni yakhe, nokusasaza ukufa kulo lonke ihlabathi. Ekugqibeleni, unyamezelo olucingelwayo lweniyo-liberalism luya kufikelela kwimida yalo, kwaye ke ubume bayo bokwenyani buya kutyhilwa. bathi okubi kulungile, okulungileyo kubi. Abasayi kukunyamezela oko bakugqala “njengokunganyamezeli” okubonakaliswa kukuziphatha kokwenene. Baya kuzalisekisa isiprofeto sexesha kwaye balwe imfazwe epheleleyo nxamnye nobuKristu. -UMichael D. O'Brien, Ihlabathi kunye noMyalelo weHlabathi oMtshaMatshi 17, 2009

I-Itty Bitty Path

Kodwa kusekho indlela encinci kwaye imxinwa kuyo yonke le nto, enye ibonakala icutheka ngemini, kodwa ingenakoyiswa.

Hayi indlela elimxinwa ngayo isango, icuthene nendlela, esa ebomini! Kwaye abo bayifumanayo bambalwa. (Mat 7:14)

(Enyanisweni, amazwi alandelayo kaYesu alumkisa abaprofeti bobuxoki abambethe ufele lwegusha!) Umntu uyifumana njani le ndlela? Umntu ungena njani kuyo? Kwaye umntu uhlala njani kuyo?

Le yimibuzo endifuna ukuyiphendula nzulu kwezi veki zizayo, ukuze sincedane sihlale kule ndlela incinci kodwa ingenasiphako athe uKristu wayilungisa ngegazi lakhe. Injongo yokuza kukaYesu yayiyile:

Mna ndizele ukuze babe nobomi, babe nabo ke ngokugqithiseleyo. (UJohn 10: 10)

UYesu ufuna ukuba siphile ngokupheleleyo, kwaye sibe namava obu bomi bungcwele kubo ubuninzi! Kodwa bangaphi kuthi abadakumbileyo, abangonwabanga, nabagulayo? UThixo uyafuna philisa thina. Ufuna ukusikhulula. Ufuna ukuba simlandele eNdleleni, ekugqibeleni, ukuya eZulwini-kwindlela encinci yothando.

Uncedo lwakho...

Ngokunyaniseka ndibeke lo mbuzo kwiNkosi yethu kweli hlobo, ndizibuza ukuba ingaba isandibiza na ukuba ndihlale “njengomlindi” ngeli xesha lasekupheleni. Kwaye impendulo ibe ngu "Ewe." Ungandinceda ekuziseni eli Lizwi ngoku kwabanye? Lihambile ixesha sifikile ngoSeptemba kwaye imali yethu iphantse yaphela.

UProf. Daniel O'Connor kunye nam siva ukuba iNkosi isibiza ukuba siqalise ukusasazwa kwewebhu kunye ukuzama ukubonelela ngelizwi lokulungelelana phakathi kokukhula kwepolarization kunye nokugqithisa. Kukho okungakumbi ekufuneka kuthethiwe, mhlawumbi akukho nto ingako malunga namaxesha - sonke sinokuyibona into eyenzekayo - endaweni yoko, ukuba singahlala njani siqinile kuKholo lwethu lobuKatolika ngaphandle kokuwela kwimigibe kaSathana eyohlukeneyo kwaye itsalela amaKristu emfazweni, nokuba ngokuchasene omnye nomnye.

Ukuba uyakwazi ukuxhasa iLizwi langoku, kungekuphela ngemithandazo yakho kodwa ngesipho sobupostile, nceda ucofe Nikela iqhosha ngezantsi. Ukuba kunokwenzeka, ngaba unokuwuqwalasela umnikelo wenyanga? Sidinga isithuthi esinoqoqosho kwaye sinethemba lokuba ikhompyuter yam yemveliso eyalupheleyo iya kuhlala omnye unyaka. Ndinombulelo ongazenzisiyo ngoncedo lwakho, oluhlala lulukhuthazo olukhulu. Ngokwamazwi kaVenerable Rose Hawthorne, "Olona khuthazo lukhulu endilunikwe ngabantu abathumela iminikelo-ngokukodwa incinci, enye inkulu ..."

Qhubeka… kwindlela emxinwa!
