PHAKATHI Abaprofeti beTestamente eNdala abaxela kwangaphambili ngokuhlanjululwa kwehlabathi okulandelwa lixesha loxolo nguZefaniya. Uphinda oko u-Isaya, uHezekile nabanye babona kwangaphambili: ukuba uMesiya uya kuza agwebe izizwe kwaye amise ulawulo lwaKhe emhlabeni. Into abangayiqondiyo kukuba ulawulo lwaKhe luya kuba ngokomoya kwindalo ukuze kuzalisekiswe amagama uMesiya ngenye imini aya kufundisa abantu bakaThixo ukuba bathandaze: Mabufike ubukumkani bakho, makwenziwe ukuthanda kwakho nasemhlabeni, njengokuba kusenziwa emazulwini.
Kuba ngelo xesha ndiya kuziguqulela izizwe, ndizisulungekise imilebe yabantu, ukuze babize igama likaYehova, bamkhonze ngaxhatha linye; ngaphesheya kwemilambo yakwaKushi, kude kuse naseziphelweni, baya kundizisela imirhumo. (Ufundo lwanamhlanje lokuqala)
"Iminikelo" ababeza kuyizisa ayizukuba yinkomo okanye iinkozo, kodwa bona uqobo-lwabo okufunwa nguwe, inyaniso.
Ndiyanivuselela ngoko, bazalwana, ngeemfefe zikaThixo, ukuba niyinikele imizimba yenu ibe lidini eliphilileyo, elingcwele, elikholekileyo kuThixo. Sanukuzifanisa neli phakade; kodwa manibe kumila kumbi ngokuhlaziyeka kwengqondo yenu, ukuze nikucikide into okuyiyo ukuthanda kukaThixo, okulungileyo, okukholekileyo, okuzalisekileyo. (Roma 12: 1-2)
NoSt Paul wathi, "siyazi ngokuyinxenye kwaye siprofeta ngokuyinxenye ..." [1]I-1 Cor 13: 9 Ukulindelwa kweCawa yokuqala yayikukuba amazwi abaprofeti afumane awabo final ukuzaliseka ngexesha labo lobomi. Kwakungenakuba njalo. YayinguMmeli kaKristu, upopu wokuqala, owayeza kuthi ekugqibeleni acaphukise ulindelo olubonisa ukuba, Kuba eNkosini imini enye injengeminyaka eliwaka, neminyaka eliwaka injengemini enye. [2]Eyesi-2 kaPetros 3: 8; cf. Nd 90: 4 Ngokwenene, aBaseki beCawe bokuqala benkulungwane yokuqala babenokuyisebenzisa le "theology" kwaye, ngokusekwe kwimfundiso yabapostile, bafundise ukuba "imini yeNkosi" yayingeyiyo imini yeeyure ezingama-24 esiphelweni sehlabathi, kodwa enyanisweni , ukuba ubudala bobuMesiya yoxolo oluxelwe kwangaphambili ngabaprofeti.
Mna kunye nawo onke amanye amaKhristu esiqhelo siziva siqinisekile ukuba luyakuba khona uvuko lwenyama olulandelwa yiminyaka eliwaka, yakwakhiwa, yaxhonywa, yandiswa isixeko saseYerusalem, njengoko kwabhengezwa nguMprofeti uHezekile, u-Iaya nabanye… Indoda phakathi kwethu ogama linguYohane, omnye wabaPostile bakaKristu, wafumana kwaye waxela kwangaphambili ukuba abalandeli bakaKristu baya kuhlala eYerusalem iminyaka eliwaka, nokokuba emva koko indalo iphela kwaye, ngokufutshane, uvuko lwanaphakade kunye nomgwebo ziyakwenzeka. —St. UJustin Martyr, Ingxoxo kunye noTrypho, uCh. 81, Ootata beCawe, Ilifa LamaKristu
Ewe, imini yeNkosi iya kuba yiminyaka eliwaka. -Umhla kaBharnabhas, Ootata beCawe, Ch. 15
Gcina ukhumbula, abaSeki beCawa bokuqala basebenzise ulwimi olufanayo olufanayo nabaprofeti beTestamente eNdala. Umzekelo, xa iZibhalo ziprofeta abantu bakaThixo bengena kwilizwe elibaleka "ubisi nobusi", oko bekungamiselwanga ngokwenyani, kodwa bekubonisa ubukho obuninzi bukaThixo. Kwaye ke, uSt. Justin wongeza:
Ngoku ... siyaqonda ukuba ixesha leminyaka eliwaka lubonakalisiwe ngolwimi olufuziselayo. —St. UJustin Martyr, Ingxoxo kunye noTrypho, uCh. 81, OoBawo beCawa, iLifa leMveli lobuKristu
Ubhekisa apha, ewe, “kwiminyaka eliwaka” ekuthethwa ngayo kwisiTyhilelo 19-20, xa uYesu wayeza kubonakalisa amandla aKhe nomgwebo kwiintlanga, ezaziza kulandelwa, ingekuko ukuphela kwehlabathi, kodwa “Iwaka leminyaka” - elo “xesha loxolo.” Apha sibona ngokulandelelana ngokucacileyo kuZefaniya kufundo lokuqala lwanamhlanje. Ndiza kucaphula iSityhilelo emva kokubonisa umlingane weTestamente eNtsha.
Okokuqala, a umgwebo wabaphilayo:
Utsho uYehova ukuthi, Yeha, umzi oneenkani, ongcolileyo, oxinzelela phantsi! Alaliva lizwi, alamkeli ngqeqesho; Akakholosanga ngoYehova, akasondela kuThixo wakhe. (Zef 3: 1-2)
Iwile, iwile iBhabheli enkulu. Uye waba likhaya leedemon. Uyintente yayo yonke imimoya engcolileyo. (ISityhi. 18: 2)
Ukuhlanjululwa kwihlabathi labo bangayamkeli inceba kaThixo:
Ngelo xesha ndiya kubasusa phakathi kwakho abaqhayisi, bangabi saziphakamisa entabeni yam engcwele; uYehova uya kubambana nabenzi bobubi, ukuba akonakalise ehlabathini. (Zef 3:11; iNdumiso 34:17 yanamhlanje))
Irhamncwa labanjwa, kunye nalo kwabanjwa umprofeti obuxoki, lowo wayenzayo imiqondiso leyo wayilahlekisa ngayo abo balwamkelayo uphawu lwerhamncwa, nabo baqubuda kuwo umfanekiselo walo; (ISityhi. 19:20)
Intsalela esulungekisiweyo ishiyekile — abo bahlala bethembekile kuYesu.[3]bona ISityhi. 3:10
Ndiya kushiya phakathi kwakho abantu abasindileyo, abathobekileyo, abaya kuzimela egameni likaYehova. (Zef 3:12)
Ndabona nemiphefumlo yabo babenqunyulwe iintloko ngenxa yobungqina babo kuYesu nangenxa yelizwi likaThixo, nababengalinqulanga irhamncwa nomfanekiso walo, abangalwamkelanga uphawu lwalo ebunzini nasesandleni. Babuyela ebomini baza balawula kunye noKristu iminyaka eliwaka. Abafileyo abaseleyo ababuyanga badle bomi, yada yadlula iminyaka eliwaka. (ISityhi. 20: 1-6)
USt. John ubhala ukuba, ngeli xesha, uSathana uza kubotshelelwa enzonzobileni. Ingxabano ende phakathi kwenyoka yakudala kunye neCawe iyakufumana ukuphumla, "usuku lokuphumla" kwintshutshiso yomchasi wakudala. Kuya kuba liXesha loXolo:
ICawe iyakuba ncinane kwaye kuya kufuneka iqale ngokutsha okanye icande kwasekuqaleni… Kodwa xa ukulingwa koku kuhluzwa kudlulile, amandla amakhulu ayakuphuma kwiCawa enomoya kwaye yenziwe lula. Amadoda kwihlabathi elicwangciswe ngokupheleleyo ayakuzifumana elilolo elingenakuthethwa… [iBandla] liyakonwabela ukudubula okutsha libonwe njengekhaya lomntu, apho azakufumana ubomi nethemba ngaphaya kokufa. -Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (POPE BENEDICT XVI), Ukholo kunye nekamva, Ignatius Press, ka-2009
Baya kwalusa imihlambi yabo, balalise umhlambi wabo, kungekho bani uwaphazamisayo. (Zef 13:13)
Ukuqukumbela, uluvo lweCawe elihlala "kwiYerusalem eyakhiwe ngokutsha" lingaqondwa njengokubuyiselwa komntu kuKristu, oko kukuthi, ukubuyiselwa kolo manyano luphambili eMyezweni wase-Eden apho uAdam noEva babehlala khona Kwintando kaThixo.
… Yonke imihla xa sithandaza kuBawo wethu oyiNgcwele sicela iNkosi: “Intando yakho mayenziwe emhlabeni, njengokuba isenziwa ezulwini” (Matt 6:10)…. Siyaqonda ukuba "izulu" kulapho intando kaThixo yenziwa khona, kwaye "umhlaba" uba "lizulu" -ie, indawo yobukho bothando, yokulunga, yenyaniso kunye nobuhle bukaThixo-kuphela emhlabeni intando kaThixo yenziwe. —UPOPE BENEDICT XVI, Abaphulaphuli Jikelele, ngoFebruwari 1, 2012, kwisiXeko saseVatican
Ke, iXesha loXolo elizayo alifanele liqondwe njenge final Ukuza kobukumkani bukaThixo nokuba, kodwa kukumiswa kokuthanda kukaThixo entliziyweni yomntu nge "Pentekoste entsha"… inqanaba lokugqibela ngaphambi kokuphela kwehlabathi.
Isenzo sikaKristu sokuhlangula asizibuyiseli ngokwaso zonke izinto, senza nje umsebenzi wentlawulelo ukuba ube khona, siqale ukukhululwa kwethu. Njengokuba bonke abantu besabelana ngokungathobeli kuka-Adam, ngokunjalo bonke abantu kufuneka babelane ekuthobeleni uKrestu kwintando kaYise. Ukuhlangulwa kuya kugqitywa kuphela xa bonke abantu besabelana ngokuthobela kwakhe. —UMkhonzi kaThixo Fr. UWalter Ciszek, Uyandikhokela, iphepha. 116-117
… Zinkulu kakhulu iimfuno kunye neengozi zeli xesha langoku, bukhulu kakhulu ubume boluntu obutsalelekileyo ukuhlalisana kwehlabathi kwaye akunamandla okukufezekisa, ukuba akukho lusindiso kuyo ngaphandle kwe ukuthululwa okutsha kwesipho sikaThixo. Makhe eze, uMoya oDalayo, Ukuhlaziya ubuso bomhlaba! —UAPOPE PAUL VI, Gaudete eDomino, Meyi 9th, 1975 www.v Vatican.va
