NINI Ngaba ekugqibeleni uYesu wazama ukubethelelwa emnqamlezweni? Nini ukukhanya kwathatyathwa ngobumnyama, nobumnyama ukukhanya. Oko kukuthi, abantu bakhethe ibanjwa elidume kakubi, uBharabhas, endaweni ka Yesu, iNkosana yoXolo.
Waza ke uPilato wabakhulula uBharabhas; wathi ke, emtyakatyile uYesu, wamnikela ukuba abethelelwe emnqamlezweni. (Mat 27: 26)
Njengoko ndimamele iingxelo eziphuma kwiZizwe eziManyeneyo, siyabona kwakhona ukukhanya kuthatyathelwa ebumnyameni, nobumnyama ekukhanyeni. [1]cf. I-LifeSiteNews.com, NgoMeyi 6, 2014 UYesu wabonakaliswa ziintshaba zaKhe njengomphazamisi woxolo, onokuba "ngumgrogrisi" kurhulumente waseRoma. Ngokukwanjalo, iCawa yamaKatolika iyakhawuleza ukuba ngumbutho omtsha woyikiso lwamaxesha ethu.
… Ukuthetha ukukhusela ubomi kunye namalungelo osapho, kwezinye iindawo, luhlobo lolwaphulo-mthetho nxamnye noRhulumente, uhlobo lokungathobeli uRhulumente… —UKhadinali Alfonso Lopez Trujillo, owayesakuba nguMongameli weBhunga lePontifical yeNtsapho, I-Vatican City, ngoJuni 28, 2006
Kodwa xa kwaqhambuka intshutshiso kwiCawa yokuqala—eyayigqalwa “njengabanqolobi” ngabaFarisi—abazange bayifihle iVangeli. Kungcono...
. . . abo babeziintsali batyhutyha ilizwe, beshumayela iindaba ezilungileyo zelizwi, bamvakalisa uKristu kubo. (ukufunda okokuqala)
ICawe… ijonge ukuqhubeka nokuphakamisa ilizwi layo ikhusela uluntu, nokuba imigaqo-nkqubo yamazwe kunye noluntu oluninzi luhamba kwelinye icala. Inyaniso, eneneni, itsala amandla kuyo kwaye ayisiyiyo kwimali evumayo. —UPOPE BENEDICT XVI, eVatican, Matshi 20, 2006
Olona khuselo loluntu luyafana nolwalunjalo kwiminyaka engama-2000 eyadlulayo: loo Nyaniso ngokwayo, uYesu Krestu, ngumsindisi wethu, osihlangulayo kumandla obubi. Nguye kuphela umthombo wovuyo lokwenene.
... oomoya abangcolileyo, bedanduluka ngezwi elikhulu, baphuma kwinto eninzi ebiphethwe ngabantu, nento eninzi enedumbe neziziqhwala yaphiliswa. Kwabakho uvuyo olukhulu kuloo mzi. (ukufunda okokuqala)
Luvuyo, kuba noyena moni unzima weva umpostile eshumayela isigidimi sikaKristu:
Andiyi kumala nabani na oza kum… (IVangeli yanamhlanje)
Intshutshiso inesiphumo sokuchithachitha iBandla, njengembewu emhlabeni. Kodwa ezo mbewu ekugqibeleni zivelisa ubomi—yaye ziya kuphinda zivelise ubomi kwakhona, njengoko imbali ibonisa. Ngoba? Ngokuba abapostile bokwenyani bakaKristu ababuyiseli intiyo ngentiyo; imbewu yothando.
… Thanda iintshaba zakho, wenze okulungileyo kwabo bakuthiyileyo, usikelele abo bakuqalekisayo, ubathandazele abo bakuphatha gadalala. (ULuka 6: 27-28)
Inene, uMthetheli-khulu owanyula ubumnyama bokufa, bokubethelela iNkosi, ekugqibeleni waguqulwa luthando nenceba engenakuxelwa nguKristu. Ngokukwanjalo, uBukhosi baseRoma obabutshutshisa ukulunga nokungabi natyala kwamakholwa ekugqibeleni baguquka, njengoko ubungqina bamawaka amaKristu baba njengentsimi enkulu yengqolowa evelisa isiqhamo ngokuphindwe kalikhulu. Ngokunjalo, nolawulo lwerhamncwa luya kuba lufutshane—uKristu uya kuboyisa obu bumnyama bukhoyo, kwaye ukuKhanya kwehlabathi kuya kukhanya kude kuse eziphelweni zomhlaba ngabangcwele bexesha elitsha. [2]cf. Ukuza kolawulo lweCawa
Ngoko ke masimilisele amehlo ethu kuzuko oluzayo, oko kukuthi, usindiso lwemiphefumlo evunwayo ngobungqina bethu obungagungqiyo nokuthembeka kuYesu nomtshakazi wakhe, iBandla. Akuzange kube njalo na kwimbali yosindiso ukuba, nanini na abantu bakaThixo babexhaswa ngokuchasene nolwandle, bexinwe ngabatshutshisi babo, iZulu lazisa esona siphelo sizukileyo?
Waluguqula ulwandle lwayinto eyomileyo; bawuwela umlambo ngeenyawo; ngoko ke masivuye ngaye. Ulolawula ngobugorha bakhe ngonaphakade. (Indumiso yanamhlanje)
