EZIMBALWA kwiintsuku ezidlulileyo, umntu waseMelika wandibhalela emva kwesigqibo sabo seNkundla ePhakamileyo sokuyila ilungelo "lomtshato" wesini esinye:
Bendihleli ndilila ndicotha indawo entle yalolu suku… njengokuba ndizama ukulala ndiyazibuza ukuba ungandinceda na ukuba ndiqonde ukuba siphi kanye kumda wexesha leziganeko ezizayo….
Kukho iingcinga ezininzi malunga noku ezize kum kuthe cwaka kule veki iphelileyo. Kwaye, ngokuyinxenye, bayimpendulo yalo mbuzo…
UMBONO
Bhala phantsi umbono; yenze icace kumacwecwe, ukuze lowo uyifundayo abaleke. Umbono ke ulingqina ngexesha elimisiweyo… (Hab 2: 2-3)
Kukho izinto ezimbini ezikhokelela kwaye zazise lo mbhalo wobupostile ekufanele ukuqaqanjiswa ngazo kwakhona. Eyokuqala kukuba ukukhanya kwangaphakathi iNkosi endinike kona ukuba ndiqonde ukuba iBandla nehlabathi lingena a Uqhwithela olukhulu (njengesaqhwithi). Inqanaba lesibini nelona libalulekileyo, nangona kunjalo, ibikukucoca yonke into ngokugunyazisa imemori yeCawa, egcinwe kwiNkcubeko eNgcwele, ukuze uphendule ngokuthembekileyo kwisikhokelo sikaSanta John Paul II:
Abancinci bazibonisile ukuba iRoma kwaye naseCaweni isipho esikhethekileyo soMoya kaThixo… andizange ndithandabuze ukubacela ukuba benze ukhetho olumandla lokholo nobomi kwaye ndibanike umsebenzi omkhulu: ukuba babe “ngabalindi bakusasa” ekuqaleni kwewaka leminyaka elitsha . —UAPOPE JOHN PAUL II, UNovo Millenio Inuente, n. 9
Ngokuphathelene noku, ndiye ndafumanisa ukuba isikweko esithi “iSaqhwithi” sihambelana ncam nombono waBaseki BeCawe bokuqala “womhla weNkosi” nento eyakwenzeka phambi, ngexesha, nasemva kwesaqhwithi.
UMFANEKISO OMKHULU
Yintoni kanye kanye “iSaqhwithi”? Ukuthatha ingqalelo kwiZibhalo, umbono waBaseki beCawa, imiboniso evunyiweyo kaMama osikelelweyo, iziprofetho zabangcwele abanjengoFaustina [1]cf. UFaustina, kunye nomhla weNkosi kunye no-Emmerich, izilumkiso ezingenakuphikiswa ezivela kupapa, iimfundiso zeCatechism, kunye "nemiqondiso yamaxesha", isiqhwithi ngokuyintloko singenisa imini yeNkosi. NgokwabaSeki beCawa bokuqala, oku ayisosiphelo sehlabathi, kodwa lixesha elithile elingaphambi kwalo, nelikhokelela esiphelweni sexesha kunye nokubuya kukaYesu ebuqaqawulini. [2]cf. Ilahlekile i-Era; bona kwakho Bawo Oyingcwele ... Uyeza! Elo xesha, oobawo bafundisa, liyafumaneka kumbono ka-St John owabhala oko emva ulawulo lomchasi-Kristu (irhamncwa), kuyakubakho ixesha loxolo, elifanekiselwa "liwaka leminyaka", i "millennium", xa iBandla liza kulawula noKristu kwihlabathi liphela (jonga iSityhilelo 20: 1-4). [3]cf. Iipopu, kunye neXesha lokuKhangela
… Ngalo mhla wethu, ohambelana nokuphuma nokutshona kwelanga, ngumfuziselo wosuku olukhulu apho isekethe eliwaka leminyaka lixhoma imida yayo. -Lactantius, Ootata beCawa: Amaziko obuThixo, INcwadi VII, Isahluko se-14, Inzululwazi yamaKatolika; www.newadvent.org
Kwaye kwakhona,
Ewe, imini yeNkosi iya kuba yiminyaka eliwaka. -Ileta kaBharnabhas, OoBawo beCawa, Ch. 15
“Iminyaka eliwaka”, nangona kunjalo, ayifanele iqondwe ngokoqobo, kodwa ngokomfuziselo ibhekisa kwixesha elide [4]cf. I-Millenarianism-Iyintoni, kwaye ayikho xa uKristu wayeya kulawula ngokwasemoyeni ngeCawe yakhe kulo lonke zonke Iintlanga “kwandule ke ukufika ukuphela.” [5]cf. Mat 24:14
Isizathu sokuba ndiyichaze yonke le nto kungokuba, ngokwe-St John kunye noBawo weCawa, ukubonakala kwalowo "uchasene nomthetho" okanye "irhamncwa" kuyenzeka phambi kokuba uloyiso lweCawe- lawo "maxesha obukumkani" okanye into ooTata ababehlala beyibiza ngokuba "luphumlo lwesabatha" lweCawa:
kodwa Xa Umchasi-Kristu etshabalalise zonke izinto kweli hlabathi, uya kulawula iminyaka emithathu neenyanga ezintandathu, ahlale etempileni eYerusalem. INkosi iyakuza isemazulwini ngamafu… ithumele le ndoda nabo bamlandelayo edikeni lomlilo; kodwa ukuzisa amalungisa amaxesha obukumkani, oko kukuthi, okunye, usuku olungcwalisiweyo lwesixhenxe… Oku kuyakwenzeka ngamaxesha obukumkani, oko kukuthi, ngomhla wesixhenxe… iSabatha yokwenene yamalungisa. —St. UIrenaeus waseLyons, uBawo weCawa (140-202 AD); UAdversus Haereses, U-Irenaeus waseLyon, V.33.3.4, Ootata beCawa, i-CIMA Publishing Co.
Oko kukuthi, izinto ziya zisiba mbi ngaphambi kokuba zibe ngcono. Njengomnye wababhali abathandwayo nguSt Thérèse de Lisieux,
Olona luvo ligunyazisiweyo, kunye nolona lubonakala luhambelana kakhulu neSibhalo eNgcwele, kukuba, emva kokuwa komchasi-Kristu, iCawa yamaKatolika iya kuphinda ingene kwixesha lokuphumelela kunye noloyiso. -Ukuphela kweLizwe langoku kunye neemfihlakalo zoBomi boKamva, Mnu. UCharles Arminjon (1824-1885), iphe. 56-57; Nozipho
Kule meko, ndifuna ukudlulisa eyona nto ibaluleke kakhulu kumchasi-Kristu ebonakala ngathi iyatyhileka koku yure…
ILIYURE LOMTHETHO
Ndifuna ukubalisela abafundi abatsha ngamava angenakucimeka endinawo ngo-2005 awandikhuthaza ubhishophu waseCanada ukuba ndibhale ngawo. Ndandiqhuba ndedwa eBritish Columbia, eCanada, ndisiya kwikhonsathi yam elandelayo, ndonwabela ubuhle bendalo, ndikhukuliswa yingcinga, ngequbuliso ndeva ngaphakathi entliziyweni yam la mazwi:
Ndiphakamise I restrainer.
Ndeva into emoyeni wam kunzima ukuyichaza. Kwakungathi Umothuko wawutyhutyha umhlaba — ngokungathi kukho into ethile kummandla wokomoya ekhululweyo. [6]cf. Ukususa isithintelo
Ngobo busuku kwigumbi lam le-motel, ndabuza iNkosi ukuba ingaba le nto ndiyifundayo ikwiZibhalo na, kuba igama elithi "restrainer" lalingaziwa kum. Ndathatha iBhayibhile yam, ndaza ndavula ngokungqalileyo kweyesi-2 kwabaseTesalonika 2: 3. Ndiqale ukufunda:
… [Ningagungqi] ezingqondweni zenu ngesiquphe, okanye… nokothuswa nokuba “ngumoya,” okanye ngentetho yomlomo, okanye ngeleta ekuthiwa ivela kuthi yokuba imini yeNkosi isondele. Makungabikho namnye unikhohlisayo nangayiphi na indlela. Kuba ngaphandle kokuba uwexuko luze kuqala aze lowo uchasene nomthetho atyhileke…
Oko kukuthi, uSt. UPaul walumkisa ukuba "imini yeNkosi" yayiza kwandulelwa yimvukelo kunye nokutyhilwa komchasi-Kristu-ngegama, ukuchas 'umthetho.
… Phambi kokufika kweNkosi kuya kubakho uwexuko, kwaye umntu ochazwe kakuhle njengendoda “yomthetho”, “unyana wentshabalalo” kufuneka atyhileke, isiko lesiko elizakubiza uMchasi-Kristu. -POPE BENEDICT XVI, Abaphulaphuli Jikelele, "Nokuba kungokuphela kwexesha okanye ngexesha lokunqongophala koxolo: Yiza Nkosi Yesu!", L'Osservatore RomanoNgomhla we-12 ku-Okthobha ka-2008
Kodwa ikho into ethile "Ukuthintela" ukubonakala kwalo Mchasi-Kristu. Ndivule imihlathi yam ngobo busuku, ndaqhubeka ndifunda:
Kwaye uyazi ukuba yintoni ukuthintela ukuze abonakalaliswe ngexesha lakhe. Kuba imfihlelo yokuchasana nomthetho iselisebenza; kuphela yena ngoku uyabamba Uya kuyenza de aphume endleleni. Uya kwandula ke umchasi-mthetho atyhileke…
Xa sicinga ngokuchas 'umthetho, siba nomfanekiso-ngqondweni wamaqela emigulukudu ajikeleza ezitalatweni, ukungabikho kwamapolisa, ulwaphulo-mthetho kuyo yonke indawo, njlnjl. Kodwa, njengoko sibonile ngaphambili, ezona ndlela zikhohlakeleyo nezinobungozi yiza kumaza we Uhlaziyo. I-French Revolution yaxhokonxwa zizihlwele ezazifuna ukubhukuqa iCawe kunye nobukhosi; Ubukomanisi babuzelwe njengoko abantu bahlasela iMoscow ngoHlaziyo lwango-Okthobha; UbuNazi babukho ngentando yesininzi baqeshwe ngevoti edumileyo; kwaye namhlanje, ukusebenza ngokufanayo noorhulumente abanyulwe ngokwentando yesininzi, ngokudibeneyo nabaphembeleli, yeyona nto isebenzayo ngoku Uhlaziyo lwehlabathi: ubutshantliziyo bezomthetho, apho iinkundla ziyila nje imithetho “ukutolika” imigaqo-siseko okanye imiqulu yamalungelo.
… Izigqibo [zeNkundla ePhakamileyo] kwiveki ephelileyo ibingezizo ezomgaqo-siseko nje kuphela, bezigqityiwe-umthetho. Kuthetha ukuba asisaphili ngaphakathi kwenkqubo yemithetho, kodwa siphantsi kwenkqubo elawulwa yintando yamadoda. -Okuhlela, uJonathan V. Okokugqibela, Umgangatho weveki, Julayi 1st, 2015
Konke oku kuthetha ukuba bekukho ifayile ye- ukuqhubela apho ukuchas 'umthetho kubonakala ngakumbi nangakumbi ukuze kuthabathele indawo inkululeko xa, phofu, kuyisingela phantsi. [7]cf. Iphupha lalowo ungenamthetho
… Xa inkcubeko yona iyinyani kwaye inyanisile kwaye imigaqo esebenzayo iyonke ayisasekelwanga, emva koko imithetho inokubonwa njengeziphikiso okanye izithintelo ekufuneka zithintelwe. -IPOPE FRANCIS, Laudato si 'n. 123; www.v Vatican.va
Yiloo nto uPope Francis esongeza athi, “ukungahlonelwa komthetho kuya kusiba yinto eqhelekileyo.” [8]cf. Laudato si 'n. 142; www.v Vatican.va Nangona kunjalo, njengoko oopopu bangaphambili belumkisile, le ibiyinjongo kubo bonke abo basebenza ngokuchasene nomyalelo wangoku. [9]cf. Imfihlelo iBhabhiloni
Ngeli xesha, nangona kunjalo, abaxhasi bobubi babonakala bedibanisa ... Abasenzi mfihlakalo ngeenjongo zabo, ngoku bavukela ngenkalipho ngokuchasene noThixo ngokwakhe… eyona njongo yabo iphambili iyazinyanzela ukuba izijonge — oko kukuthi, Ukubhukuqa yonke inkolo kunye nezopolitiko zehlabathi eziveliswe yimfundiso yobuKrestu, kunye nokutshintshwa kwemeko entsha yezinto ngokuhambelana nezimvo zabo, apho iziseko kunye nemithetho ziya kuthathwa kwindalo nje. —I-POPE LEO XIII, Uhlobo lomntu, Encyclical on Freemasonry, n. 10, Apri 20thl, 1884
Irhamncwa LIYAYITHABATHA INkululeko
Bazalwane noodade, ndithetha ngale ndlela kwakhona ukuba ndinilumkise ngala maKatolika anenjongo entle anyanzelisa ukuba asinakuba sisondele kwixesha lomchasi-Kristu. Isizathu sokunyanzelisa kwabo yile: bazilinganisele kwimfundo yezakwalizwi nakwincwadana yebhayibhile engathatheli ngqalelo ubungakanani bemibhalo yobuthixo, imfundiso yenkolo eyimfihlakalo, kunye nawo wonke umzimba weemfundiso zamaKatolika. Kwaye ke, iingxelo zooMantyi ezinje ngezi zilandelayo azikhathalelwa:
Ngubani onokuhluleka ukubona ukuba uluntu ngeli xesha langoku, ngaphezu kwalo naliphi na ixesha elidlulileyo, liphethwe sisifo esoyikekayo nesinzulu, esithi, siphuhla yonke imihla size sitye kwimbilini yaso, siyitsalele kwintshabalalo? Uyaqonda, Bazalwane abahloniphekileyo, yintoni esi sifo ngu—uwexuko ivela kuThixo… Xa konke oku kuqwalaselwa kukho isizathu esilungileyo soloyiko hleze le mpazamo inkulu ibe ngathi kukungcamla kwangaphambili, kwaye mhlawumbi nokuqala kobubi obugcinelwe imihla yokugqibela; nokuba kungade kubekho umhlaba "uNyana wentshabalalo" athetha ngaye uMpostile. —IIPOPE ST. IPIUS X, E Supremi, Encyclical, Ekubuyiselweni kwezinto zonke kuKristu, n. 3, 5; Nge-4 ka-Okthobha ka-1903
Nangona kunjalo, ukuvavanywa kwamaxesha ethu kutyhila okhoyo ngeli lixa zonke uphawu olwaluza kuqala kwaye luhambe nomntu "ongenamthetho."
Ukungabikho komthetho kunye nokuwexuka
Njengoko sele kutshiwo, ukungabi namthetho kuyenzeka kuyo yonke indawo, kungekuphela ekubhukuqweni komthetho wokuziphatha wendalo, kodwa kwinto uPope Francis ayibiza ngokuba "sisimo semfazwe" esikhulayo, [10]cf. IHerald yamaKatolika, Juni 6th, 2015 iyantlukwano kusapho nakwinkcubeko, nakwiingxaki zoqoqosho.
Kodwa igama u-St. Paul alisebenzisayo ukuchaza ukungabinamthetho "kukuwexuka", oko kuthetha ukuba kukuvukela, kunye nokulahla inkolo yamaKatolika. Ingcambu yoluvukelo kukulalanisa nomoya wehlabathi.
Akuzange kwabakho ukukreqa kubuKrestu ngoluhlobo bekukho ngalo kwinkulungwane edlulileyo. Ngokuqinisekileyo "singumgqatswa" woKreqo olukhulu. —UGqr. URalph Martin, uMcebisi kwiBhunga likaPapa loVangelo olutsha, Yintoni eyenzekayo kwihlabathi? I-documenatary yomabonakude, i-CTV Edmonton, 1997
… Ukuthanda ihlabathi yingcambu yobubi kwaye kungasikhokelela ekubeni sizilahle izithethe zethu kwaye sithethathethane ngokunyaniseka kwethu kuThixo osoloko ethembekile. Oku kubizwa ngokuba kukuwexuka, okuthi… luhlobo “lokukrexeza” olwenzekayo xa sithetha-thethana ngomongo wobukho bethu: ukunyaniseka eNkosini. —UPOPA UFRANCISI osuka kwikhaya, iVatican Radio, nge-18 kaNovemba ngo-2013
Njengoko sele kutshiwo apha ngasentla, ngaphezulu kwe-Pope enye ithethile malunga nokuwexuka okwenzeka phakathi kwethu.
Uwexuko, Ukuphulukana nokholo kusasazeka kwihlabathi liphela nakwizinga eliphezulu ngaphakathi kweCawa. -UPOPU PAUL VI, Idilesi yesikhumbuzo seminyaka engamashumi amathandathu yeFatima Apparitions, ngo-Okthobha 13, 1977
II. Ukunyamalala kwenkululeko
Bobabini umprofeti uDaniel no-St. John bachaza “irhamncwa” njengolawulo lwehlabathi olunamandla Unikwe igunya kwizizwe zonke, neelwimi, neentlanga zonke. [11]cf. ISityhi 13:7 Ubungqina begunya lehlabathi elingeneyo lawulo Iya icaca ngakumbi, [12]cf. Lawula! Lawula! kungekuphela kwimithetho epasisiweyo ethintela inkululeko ukuze "kuliwe nobunqolobi", kodwa kuqoqosho lwehlabathi eliya lisiba ngamakhoboka kungekuphela amahlwempu, kodwa abakumgangatho ophakathi "ngenzala". [13]cf. 2014 kunye nerhamncwa eliKhulayo Ngapha koko, uPopu uFrancis uyasikhalimela "isoloniyali yonyani" enyanzela amazwe kwihlabathi liphela ukuba amkele umbono olwa nabantu.
Ayilulo ubumbano oluhle lomanyano lweZizwe zonke, ngasinye sinamasiko aso, endaweni yoko kukudityaniswa kwehlabathi ngokufana, yinto ingcinga enye. Kwaye le ngcinga iyodwa sisiqhamo se- ihlabathi. —UPOPA UFRANCIS, Homily, nge-18 kaNovemba, 2013; Zenit
III. Itekhnoloji engafakwanga
UPope Francis ngokufanayo usicacisile isisongelo esandayo samandla ezobuchwephesha asongela "kungekuphela nje ezopolitiko zethu kodwa nenkululeko nobulungisa." [14]cf. Laudato si 'n. 53; www.v Vatican.va Uluvo olungeyonyani luyaphumelela ngokungathi 'konke ukunyuka kwamandla kuthetha "ukwanda' kwenkqubela 'uqobo.”' [15]cf. Laudato si 'n. 105; www.v Vatican.va Kodwa oku akwenzeki, uyalumkisa, ngaphandle kokuba kubekho ingxoxo ethe gabalala nephandle malunga nokuziphatha kunye nokusikelwa umda kwetekhnoloji. Njengomanduleli wakhe, u-Benedict XVI, owayesoloko equlunqa imikhwa yezoqoqosho kunye netekhnoloji njengokubeka esichengeni ubukhoboka boluntu, uFrancis ngokufanayo uthathe indawo yonke ithoni ethi, ngelixa uqaphela izibonelelo kunye nemfuneko yokuyila komntu, ilumkisa ngokunyuka kobuchwephesha kwitekhnoloji ngabambalwa:
… Abo banolwazi, ngakumbi izixhobo zoqoqosho zokuzisebenzisa, [banegunya] lokulawula uluntu lonke kunye nehlabathi liphela. Akuzange nanini na umntu abe namandla angaka phezu kwakhe, kodwa akukho nto iqinisekisa ukuba iza kusetyenziswa ngobulumko, ngakumbi xa sijonga indlela esetyenziswa ngayo ngoku. Sifuna kodwa sicinge ngeebhombu zenyukliya eziwe embindini wenkulungwane yamashumi amabini, okanye uluhlu lwezobuchwephetsha ubuNazi, ubuKomanisi kunye nolunye ulawulo lobuzwilakhe olusebenzise ukubulala izigidi zabantu, singathethi kwizixhobo ezixhaphakileyo zokubulala izixhobo ezikhoyo isenzo sangoku. Asezandleni zikabani la mandla onke, okanye ngaba aya kuphela? Kuyingozi enkulu ukuba inxalenye encinci yoluntu ibe nayo. -Laudato si 'n. 104; www.v Vatican.va
IV. Ukuvela "kophawu"
Umntu bekuya kufuneka ukuba abe nobudenge ukuze angayiqondi eyona ngozi ikhulayo yorhwebo ukuba iye ithintele ngakumbi kuthotho lwedijithali. Ngokuthe cwaka, ngobuqili, uluntu luthotywa njengenkomo kwinkqubo yoqoqosho apho kukho abadlali abambalwa nabambalwa kunye nolawulo oluphambili. Abathengisi abancinci bahlala bethatyathelwa indawo ziivenkile zebhokisi; abalimi bendawo bafuduswa yimibutho yokutya yesizwe; kwaye iibhanki zasekuhlaleni ziginywa ligunya elikhulu nelingaziwayo elingaziwayo nelibeke inzuzo phambi kwabantu, “umdla wemali ongaziwayo ojika amadoda abe ngamakhoboka, izinto zabantu ezinde, kodwa ngamagunya angaziwayo akhonzwayo ngamadoda, ”watsho uPopu Benedict XVI. [16]cf. Ukucamngca emva kokufundwa kwe-ofisi yeYure yesiThathu, kwiSixeko saseVatican, nge-11 kaOkthobha ngo-2010
Iitekhnoloji ezinciphisa ukuthenga kunye nokuthengisa kwiinkqubo zokwamkelwa kwedijithali ziba semngciphekweni wokugqibela ngaphandle kwabo "bangathathi nxaxheba" kulingo lwasentlalweni olubanzi. Ukuba, umzekelo, umnini-shishini unyanzelwa ukuba alivale ishishini lakhe ngenxa yokungabhaka ikeyiki yomtshato wabantu besini esinye, sikude kangakanani kwiinkundla zethu ukuyalela ukuba "ucime" ucinyiwe kwiiakhawunti zebhanki zabo kuthathwa ngokuba "ngabanqolobi" boxolo? Okanye mhlawumbi, ngokucokisekileyo, emva kokuwa kwedola kunye nokunyuka kwenkqubo entsha yoqoqosho lwehlabathi, ngaba ubuchwepheshe bunokuphunyezwa obufuna ukunamathela kwimigaqo "yesivumelwano sehlabathi"? Kakade, iibhanki sele ziqalisile ukwenza "ushicilelo olululo" olunyanzelisa ukuba abathengi babo "bayanyamezelana" kwaye "bayabandakanya".
I-Apocalypse ithetha ngomchasi kaThixo, irhamncwa. Esi silwanyana asinalo igama, kodwa inombolo. [Ezoyikisayo zeenkampu zoxinaniso], bayaburhoxisa ubuso kunye nembali, beguqula umntu ukuba abe linani, bemnciphisa kwi-cog kumatshini omkhulu. Umntu akakho ngaphezu komsebenzi. Ngemihla yethu, akufuneki silibale ukuba babelungiselela ikamva lehlabathi eliba semngciphekweni wokwamkela ulwakhiwo olufanayo lweenkampu zoxinaniso, ukuba umthetho jikelele womatshini wamkelwe. Oomatshini abakhiweyo banyanzelisa umthetho omnye. Ngokwalo mgaqo, umntu kufuneka atolikwe yikhompyuter kwaye oku kunokwenzeka kuphela xa kuguqulelwa kumanani. Irhamncwa linani kwaye liguquka libe ngamanani. UThixo, nangona kunjalo, unegama kwaye ubiza ngegama. Ungumntu kwaye ujonge umntu. -Cardinal Ratzinger, (POPE BENEDICT XVI) Palermo, Matshi 15, 2000
Abaphambukeli nabaphambukeli
Kuyacaca ukuba amaKristu entshona koluntu abe “ngabangaphandle”; Kwizizwe zaseMpuma, siye saba iithagethi. Njengokuba inani labafeli-nkolo kwinkulungwane ephelileyo lidlula zonke iinkulungwane zangaphambi kwabo zidityanisiwe, kuyacaca ukuba singene kwintshutshiso entsha yeCawe eya isiba nochuku ngakumbi ngeli lixa. Oku kukwangomnye “umqondiso wamaxesha” wokuba sisondela kwiLiso leNkqwithela.
Okwangoku, konke oku bendikubhala ndilumkisa malunga neshumi leminyaka ngoku, kunye namanye amazwi amaninzi eCaweni. Amazwi kaYesu avakala ezindlebeni zam…
Ezi zinto ndizithethile kuni, ukuze, xa lithe lafika ilixa, nizikhumbule ukuba mna ndandinixelele. (UYohane 16: 4)
Konke oku makuthethwe, bazalwana noodade, ukuba imimoya iza iba mandundu ngakumbi, utshintsho luyakhawuleza, iSiphepho sinobundlobongela. Kwakhona, AmaTywina aSixhenxe oVukelo Yenza ukuqala kwesi saqhwithi, kwaye sibajongile bavule ngexesha lokwenyani kwiindaba zemihla ngemihla.
Kodwa kuyo yonke le nto, uThixo unecebo kubantu bakhe abathembekileyo.
Ekupheleni kuka-Epreli, ndiye ndabelana nawe ngegama elisentliziyweni yam: Yiza kunye nam. Ndeva ukuba iNkosi iyasibiza, kwakhona, siphuma eBhabheli, siphume ehlabathini siye “entlango”. Into ebendingabelani ngayo ngeloxesha yeyam Ingqiqo enzulu yokuba uYesu usibiza kakhulu njengokuba wenzayo "oobawo benkqantosi" -laa madoda abaleka izilingo zehlabathi ayedwa kwintlango ngenjongo yokukhusela impilo yawo yokomoya. Ukubalekela kwabo entlango kwakha isiseko se-monasticism kunye nendlela entsha yokudibanisa umsebenzi kunye nomthandazo.
Ingqondo yam kukuba iNkosi iyalungiselela ngokomzimba iindawo amaKristu anokuzibizela ukuhlanganisana kuzo, ngokuzithandela okanye ngokufuduka. Ndizibonile ezi ndawo “zothinjiweyo” zamaKrestu, ezi "ndawo zingqameneyo", kumbono wangaphakathi oweza kum kwiminyaka eliqela eyadlulayo ndithandaza phambi kweSigramente Esikelelekileyo Indawo zokubalekela ezizayo kunye neziqithi). Nangona kunjalo, bekuya kuba yinto ephosakeleyo ngathi ukucinga ngezi njengeendawo zokuzimela ze ikamva. Okwangoku, amaKristu kufuneka adibane, enze imanyano yomanyano ukomeleza, ukuxhasa kunye nokukhuthazana. Kuba intshutshiso ayizi: Sele ilapha.
Ke, bendinomdla wokufunda inqaku lomhleli elivele kwiphephancwadi i-TIME kule mpelaveki iphelileyo. Ndichukumisekile ngokunzulu ngenxa yezizathu ezicacileyo kwaye ndicaphula inxenye apha:
… AmaKristu obu-Orthodox kufuneka aqonde ukuba izinto ziza kusiba nzima ngakumbi kuthi. Kuza kufuneka sifunde ukuba siphile njani njengabathinjiweyo kwilizwe lethu… kuyakufuneka sitshintshe indlela esenza ngayo inkolo yethu kwaye siyifundise abantwana bethu, sakhe uluntu olomeleleyo.
Lixesha lokuba ndibize ukhetho lukaBenedict. Kwincwadi yakhe yowe-1982 ethi After Virtue, isithandi sobulumko esidumileyo uAlasdair MacIntyre wafanisa ubudala obukhoyo nokuwa kweRoma yamandulo. Wakhomba ku-Benedict wase-Nursia, umKristu oselula ozinikeleyo owashiya isiphithiphithi sase-Roma waya ehlathini eyokuthandaza, njengomzekelo kuthi. Thina bafuna ukuphila ngokulunga kwesiko, utshilo uMacIntyre, kufuneka sibe ngoovulindlela beendlela ezintsha zokwenza oko eluntwini. Silindele, watsho "entsha - kwaye ngokungathandabuzekiyo yahluke kakhulu - iSt Benedict."
Kumaxesha aphakathi aphakathi, indawo kaBenedict yakha izindlu zoonongendi, yagcina ukukhanya kokholo kuvutha kubumnyama benkcubeko.
