Imibhalo yeLigugu Apha

AS Siqala le Advent, intliziyo yam igcwele ukumangaliswa ngumnqweno weNkosi wokubuyisela zonke izinto kuye, ukwenza ilizwe lihle kwakhona.

Sisanda kuchitha iveki yokugqibela, kubandakanywa neCawa yokuQala ye-Advent, ukuva "ixesha lokugqibela" izicatshulwa zeZibhalo.^[1]cf. Irhamncwa elingenakuthelekiswa nanto Ngokusisiseko zichaza ihlabathi eliye layilahla inyaniso, lonakalise ubuhle, yaye likugatya ukulunga kokwenyani—nemiphumo eveliswa koko: imfazwe, indlala, izifo, iiyantlukwano, njl. njl. Ewe, ndiyakholelwa, njengoko benjenjalo oopopu bethu abaninzi bamandulo inkulungwane,^[2]cf. Kutheni le nto ooPopu bengekhwaza? ukuba siphila kula maxesha angaqhelekanga, “amaxesha okuphela”… nokuba athabatha ixesha elingakanani ukutyhileka. Ayisosiphelo sehlabathi, kodwa sisiphelo songquzulwano olude phakathi “kweVangeli nechasa ivangeli, iBandla kunye nabachasi iBandla” esikubonayo. ^[3]cf. UKhadinali uKarol Wojtyla (ST. JOHN PAUL II), kwiNkongolo ye-Ekaristi, ePhiladelphia, PA; Ngo-Agasti 13, 1976

Kodwa ukubuyiselwa kwazo zonke izinto kuKristu ayisiyonto aya kuyenza uYesu ngaphandle kweBandla laKhe, kodwa ngokuchanekileyo ngoMzimba wakhe ongaqondakaliyo.

Kwaye wabanika abanye ukuba babe ngabapostile, abanye babe ngabaprofeti, abanye babe ngabashumayeli beendaba ezilungileyo, abanye ngabalusi nabafundisi, ukuze abangcwele balungele umsebenzi wobulungiseleli, ukwakhiwa komzimba kaKristu, side sonke sifikelele kubunye bokholo. ukumazi uNyana kaThixo, ebudaleni ebudodeni, ede efikelele kubukhulu bukaKristu. ( Efe 4:11-13 )

Nantsi imfihlelo: ngelixa ihlabathi nendalo ngokwayo, igugile ngobusuku obude besono, incwina kwaye ixhuzula phantsi kobunzima bawo, uMzimba kaKristu usiwa ekukhuleni, ebungcweleni "okungenabala nasiphako" de ukuBuya kokugqibela kukaYesu esenyameni yakhe ezukisiweyo ekupheleni kwexesha. Kodwa njengokuba kunjalo, uhlobo oluthile Ukungqinelwa kobulumko iya kufezekiswa ngaphambi koko xa ulawulo lukaKristu ngeBandla laKhe luya kumiselwa kwihlabathi lonke njengesiqhamo sobulungisa.

UYesu ufuna ukuzisa into entle emhlabeni, kwaye lo ngulo Ukuza koBungcwele obutsha nobuNgcwele. Kwaye obu ngcwele abunamiphumo yako: ukubuyiselwa kwenyaniso, ubuhle, nokulunga—yaye oku kuya kuphunyezwa “ngePentekoste eNtsha”^[4]cf. Ngobukrakra? Icandelo VI ugalelwe phezu kwayo yonke indalo.

"Kwaye ziya kuliva izwi lam, kwaye kuya kubakho isibaya esinye kunye nomalusi omnye." Wanga uThixo… ngokufutshane uza kusizalisekisa isiprofetho sakhe sokuguqula lo mbono ududuzayo wexesha elizayo ube yinto yokwenene…. Umsebenzi kaThixo ukuzisa eli lixa lokonwaba kwaye ulazise kubo bonke… Xa lifikile, liza kuphumela kulo Yibani lixesha elizeleyo, elikhulu kunye neziphumo hayi ekubuyiseleni uBukumkani bukaKristu, kodwa ukucanyagushwa… kwehlabathi. Sithandaza ngokuzingisileyo, kwaye sicela abanye ngokufanayo ukuba bathandaze kuluntu olunqwenelekayo kakhulu kuluntu. —I-POPE PIUS XI, Ubi Arcani dei Consilioi “Kuxolo lukaKristu eBukumkanini bakhe”, nge-23 kaDisemba ngo-1922

Kodwa ngokuchanekileyo kungoMzimba kaKristu apho eli lixa lizukileyo liya kufika xa uxolo nobulungisa buya kulawula kude kuse eziphelweni zomhlaba okwexeshana. Ke ngoko, siva kufundo lokuqala lwanamhlanje:

Hayi indlela ezibukeka ngayo iinyawo zabo bazisa iindaba ezilungileyo!

Bazalwana noodade, ziinyawo zenu ukuba ihlabathi lilindele ukuzisa iindaba ezilungileyo, ukuzisa inzaliseko yenyaniso, ubuhle, nokulunga. Njani? Impendulo ifumaneka kwiVangeli yanamhlanje:

ndilandeleni, ndonenza abalobi babantu.

Kwiiveki ezizayo, wanga uYesu angasifundisa, asixhobise, kwaye asithambise njengoko wayekhe wenza kuSt. UAndreya, uPetros, uYakobi noYohane ngobulumko obufunekayo ukuze babe ngabaPostile bokwenene—ukuze mna nawe ngokwenene sibe yityuwa nokukhanya kwihlabathi eliphulukene “nencasa” yalo kwaye lisebumnyameni.

Izimiselo zikaYehova zithe tye, zivuyisa intliziyo; umthetho kaYehova uqaqambile, ukhanyisela iliso. (Indumiso yanamhlanje)

Inkxaso yakho iyafuneka kule nkonzo yexesha elizeleyo.
Usikelele, kwaye enkosi.

Ukuhamba noMark kwi The Ngoku iLizwi oku kuza,

I-imeyile yakho ayizokwabelwana naye nabani na.
