Intombi yam endala ibona izinto ezininzi zilungile kwaye zibi [iingelosi] emfazweni. Uthethile kaninzi malunga nokuba yeyiphi na imfazwe ephela kwaye iya isiba nkulu kunye neentlobo ezahlukeneyo zezidalwa. UMama wethu wabonakala kuye ephupheni kunyaka ophelileyo njengoMama waseGuadalupe. Wamxelela ukuba idemon ezayo inkulu kwaye inoburhalarhume kunabo bonke abanye. Ukuba akazukubandakanya le demon okanye ayimamele. Yayiza kuzama ukuthatha ihlabathi. Le yidemon Ukoyika. Kwakungokoyika ukuba intombi yam yayisithi izogubungela wonke umntu nayo yonke into. Ukuhlala kufutshane neSigramente kwaye uYesu noMariya kubaluleke kakhulu. -Ileta evela kumfundi, ngoSeptemba, 2013

 

Uloyiko eCanada. Uloyiko eFransi. Uloyiko eUnited States. Ezi zihloko zezi ntsuku zimbalwa zidlulileyo. Unkwantyo ngumkhondo kaSathana, osisixhobo sakhe esiphambili kula maxesha ukoyika. Kuba uloyiko lusigcina ekubeni sesichengeni, ekuthembekeni, ekungeneni kubudlelwane… nokuba iphakathi kwabatshatileyo, amalungu osapho, izihlobo, abamelwane, izizwe ezingabamelwane, okanye uThixo. Uloyiko, ke, lusikhokelela ekulawuleni okanye ekunikezeleni ulawulo, ukuthintela, ukwakha iindonga, ukutshisa iibhlorho kunye nokugxotha. U-St. John wabhala oko “Uthando olugqibeleleyo lulugxotha lonke uloyiko.” ^[1]1 John 4: 18 Kananjalo, umntu unokuthi nayo uloyiko olugqibeleleyo ugxotha lonke uthando.

Ukoyika kukwayimiphumela emibi yesono kuba senziwe ngokomfanekiselo kaThixo, onguLuthando. Ke xa saphula umthetho wakhe ongcwele, lutolo olugobhoza entliziyweni yethu kwaye siyakuqonda oku; Siyayazi nzulu kwimiphefumlo yethu apho kubhalwe khona umthetho wendalo, kwaye ke, ukucinga kwethu kukubaleka ekukhanyeni okuveza le nyani.

… Bazifihla uNdikhoyo uThixo kunye nemithi yomthi emyezweni. UNdikhoyo uThixo wambiza uAdam, wathi kuye: “Uphi? Waphendula yena wathi, Ndive isandi segadi; ndasuka ndoyika, ngokuba ndihamba ze, ndazimela. (IGenesis 3: 8-10)

Kumawakawaka eminyaka kamva, akukho nto itshintshileyo, yiyo loo nto uYesu wabona kwangaphambili indlela ikratshi lamadoda elaliya kuvela ngayo "kumaxesha okuphela."

… Abaninzi baya kukhokelelwa esonweni; baya kungcatshana, bathiyane. Kuya kuvela abaprofeti ababuxoki babe baninzi, balahlekise abantu abaninzi. Nangenxa yokwanda kokubi, luya kuphola uthando lwabaninzi. (Mat 24: 10-12)

Oko kukuthi, ngokufutshane ulawulo loloyiko kunye noloyiko iza kuza, ^[2]cf. ISityhi 13 ide iphele iNkosi. 

 

UKOHLWAYA OKUBI

Ngokophando lwakutsha nje, uninzi lwabantu baseMelika bakholelwa kwelokuba ilizwe labo "liya esihogweni ngebhasikithi yesandla." Oluvoto lunye lwafumanisa ukuba abavoti kumacala omabini ezopolitiko bakholelwa ukuba abantu banobukrwada kunakuqala. ^[3]cf. thehill.com, Septemba 29 Kukhuselekile ukucinga ukuba oku kuyabonakala kwihlabathi liphela, ukuba sizikholelwa iintloko zemihla ngemihla. 

… Kuyakubakho amaxesha ayoyikeka ngemihla yokugqibela. Abantu baya kuba ngabazithandayo nabathandi bemali, abanekratshi, abanekratshi, abakhohlakeleyo, abangathobeli bazali babo, abangenambulelo, abangenankolo, abangenabubele, abangenatarhabaxa, abanyolukileyo, abakhohlakeleyo, abathiye okulungileyo, abancethezi, izityhuthutyhuthu, abathiwe lwale likratshi, abathandi beziyolo. kunokuba bathande uThixo, njengoko bezenza inkolo kodwa bephika amandla alo. (2 Tim 3: 1-5)

Kwinkomfa ebendithethile kuyo kutshanje, esinye sezithethi sithe-kwincoko yabaphulaphuli- uyakholelwa “kwi isohlwayo sele iqalile. ” Kwisiprofeto samaKatolika, thetha, ukohlwaya kubhekisa kumgwebo kaThixo kwiintlanga. Nangona kunjalo, ndicinga ukuba isohlwayo esibi asinto inokwenziwa nguThixo, kodwa leyo Akayi kwenza nto. Oko uBawo angaluvumela olu hlwempu luqhubeke kwikhondo lokuzibhubhisa, kanye njengonyana wolahleko. Ayilothemba lokuba umlilo ungawela ezulwini ondikhathazayo, kodwa oko amadoda ngokwawo ayeza kunisa umlilo omnye komnye kunye neyabo izixhobo zenukliya; ukuze siqhubeke Ityhefu enkulu yabantwana bethu nabazukulwana; lonto I-Islam iya kuqhubeka nokusasaza i-Jihad yayo ngokuchasene nenkululeko; ukuba ukucocwa kohlanga iya kuqhubeka nomsindo; uSathana ebeya kuqhubeka ilifa kwaye likhuthaze abanqolobi abodwa; ukuba zoonografi iya kuqhubeka nokutshabalalisa abafana bethu noobawo; ukuba iBandla liza kuqhubeka ukulalanisa nokuxabana; oorhulumente abanenkqubela phambili baya kuqhubeka Phinda ubhale umthetho wendalo Ngelixa kuvalwa inkululeko yokuthetha kunye nenkolo; lonto Imibutho iya kuqhubeka nokuxhaphaza nokusebenzisa ngobuqhetseba; ukuba uqoqosho luya kuqhubeka ukucinezela kwaye lukhobokisa. Hayi, ayinguye uBawo oseZulwini endimoyikayo, kodwa yinto umntu anokuthi ayenze kwaye ayenze kuye. ^[4]cf. Inkqubela phambili yoMntu

Kwaye masingatsho ukuba nguThixo osohlwaya ngale ndlela; Ngokuchasene noko ngabantu ngokwabo abazilungiselela isohlwayo sabo. Ngobubele bakhe uThixo uyasilumkisa kwaye usibizele kwindlela elungileyo, ngelixa sihlonipha inkululeko asinike yona; kungoko abantu benoxanduva. –Sr. Lucia, omnye wababonisi bakaFatima, kwileta eya kuBawo oyiNgcwele, nge-12 kaMeyi, 1982; IVatican.va 

Njengokuba sivile iNkosi ibuza kwisifundo sokuqala sangomso izolo:

Ngaba indlela yam ayilunganga, okanye kunoko, iindlela zenu azilunganga? (UHezekile 18:25)

Ngokwababonisi endikhe ndathetha nabo ndaza ndafunda kuwo wonke umhlaba, ngoku singena kula maxesha abikade exelwe kwangaphambili ukuba izulu belilumkisa ngalo kangangeenkulungwane. Inyaniso yokuba ingu-2017, kwaye ndiyakwazi nokubhala la mazwi namhlanje, luphawu lokuba uThixo unenceba engathethekiyo kuthi kwelona xesha kanye linemvukelo ukusukela kuNowa.

 

UKUZALWA OKUTSHA

Kodwa nantsi indawo apho mna nawe, mfundi othandekayo, kufuneka siqokelele amandla ethu kunye nesibindi kwaye sijolise amehlo ethu ku uloyiso uyeza. Njengoko uYesu watshoyo kuMkhonzi kaThixo uLuisa Piccarreta:

Ah, ntombi yam, esi sidalwa sihlala sibaleka ngakumbi ebubini. Zingaphi iindlela zentlekele abazilungisayo! Baya kuhamba ke, bade bazibhinqise ebubini. Kodwa bathi besazibhokoxa ekuhambeni kwabo, ndiya kuzibandakanya ekuphelisweni nasekugqibeleleni kwam I-Fiat Voluntas Tua  (“Intando yakho mayenziwe”) ukuze intando yam ilawule emhlabeni-kodwa ngendlela entsha. Ah ewe, ndifuna ukudanisa umntu kuThando! Ke ngoko mamela. Ndifuna wena nam ukuba nilungiselele lo Mhla woMumo wezulu kunye nothando lobuthixo… —UYesu waya kuMkhonzi kaThixo, uLuisa Piccarreta, kwiMibhalo-ngqangi, Feb 8th, 1921; isicatshulwa esivela Ubungangamsha beNdalo, UMfu Joseph Iannuzzi, iphe. 80

Kungenxa yoko le nto bendibhala kwezi veki zimbalwa zidlulileyo malunga Ukuya Enzulwini kuqala Ukuqonda umnqamlezo kwaye sinjani ngokwenene Ukuthatha inxaxheba kubomi bukaYesu obungaphezu kwendalo, kunye nendlela yethu Umnqamlezo Wemihla ngemihla sisiqalo sokungena enzulwini. Njengoko benditshilo kulengqungquthela, "Andikulungiseleli ukuza komchasi-Kristu, kodwa ukulungiselela uKrestu!"

Kukulandela iNkosi yethu ekuSwelekeni nasekufeni kwayo apho iCawe iya kuphinda ivuswe. ^[5]cf. Katekisiki yeCawa yamaKatolika, n. I-677 Ewe, ngokutsho kwaBaseki beCawa bokuqala, xa uYesu ephelisa ulawulo loyikiso uSathana alusebenzisayo kweli hlabathi, uyakusungula uSuku olutsha, ixesha loxolo lokwenene nothando phakathi kwabantu “Ukuze kube bubungqina kuzo zonke iintlanga; kwandule ke ukufika ukuphela.” ^[6]I-Matt 24: 14

Wayibamba inamba, inyoka yakudala enguMtyholi, uSathana ke, wayibopha iminyaka eliwaka, wayiphosa enzonzobileni, wayitshixela, wayitywina, ukuze ingabi nako ukuphambukisa iintlanga de Iminyaka eliwaka igqityiwe. (ISityhi. 20: 1-3)

Ewe, imini yeNkosi iya kuba yiminyaka eliwaka. -Umhla kaBharnabhas, Ootata beCawe, Ch. Ngama-15

Ngoku ... siyaqonda ukuba ixesha leminyaka eliwaka lubonakalisiwe ngolwimi olufuziselayo. —St. UJustin Martyr, Incoko kunye noTraypho, Ch. 81, Ootata beCawe, Ilifa lamaKristu

“Iwaka” lithetha ixesha elide, ^[7]ukubona I-Millenarianism-Iyintoni, kwaye ayikho nokuba inde kangakanani, nini ubulumko buya kugwetyelwa, iVangeli iya kugubungela kuzo zonke iimbombo zomhlaba, kwaye uMtshakazi kaKrestu uya kuhlanjululwa kwaye alungiselele ukuza kukaYesu okokugqibela ebuqaqawulini. 

Imiyalelo yakho yobuthixo yaphuliwe, iVangeli yakho iphoselwe ecaleni, imilambo yobugwenxa izalise umhlaba uphela uthwele nabakhonzi bakho… Ngaba yonke into iyakufika kwisiphelo esinjengeSodom neGomora? Ngaba soze uyophule? Ngaba uyakunyamezela konke oku ngonaphakade? Ayinyani na ukuba ukuthanda kwakho makwenziwe emhlabeni njengasezulwini? Akuyonyani na ukuba ubukumkani bakho mabufike? Khange unike eminye imiphefumlo, ethandekayo kuwe, umbono wokuhlaziywa kweCawa kwixesha elizayo? … Zonke izidalwa, nditsho nezona zingenaluvelwano, zilele zigcuma phantsi komthwalo we Izono ezininzi zeBhabheli Ndiyanibongoza ukuba nize, nihlaziye zonke izinto.  i-omnis creatura ingemiscit, nayo yonke indalo iyancwina… —St. ULouis de Montfort, "Umthandazo wabavangeli", n. 5; www.ewtn.com

Yile nto uMama wethu eze kuyilungiselela iBandla: a “Ixesha loxolo” apho uNyana wakhe eza kulawula khona kwi-Ekaristi kunye ubomi bangaphakathi yeCawa “kubungcwele obutsha nobungcwele.” ^[8]cf. Ukuza okuNtsha kunye nobuNgcwele obuNgcwele

Nanini na xa ooTata beCawa bethetha ngophumlo lweSabatha okanye ixesha loxolo, abaxeli kwangaphambili ngokubuya kukaYesu esenyameni okanye ukuphela kwembali yoluntu, endaweni yoko babhengeza amandla oMoya oyiNgcwele kwiisakramente eziphelisa iCawe, ukuze U-Kristu usenokumenza abe ngumtshakazi ongagungqiyo ekubuyeni kwakhe kokugqibela. —ISityhi.

Oku kuye kwaba ithemba kunye nokulindela okungokwesiprofeto kwekhulu leminyaka elidlulileyo labapapa: ^[9]ukubona Iipopu, kunye neXesha lokuKhangela kwaye Ungathini ukuba…?

Umsebenzi kaPopu John othobekileyo “kukulungiselela iNkosi abantu abafezekileyo,” kanye okufana nomsebenzi womBhaptizi, umxhasi wakhe nalowo uthatha igama lakhe. Kwaye akunakwenzeka ukuba ucinge ngokugqibeleleyo okuphezulu nangaphezulu okuxabisekileyo kunoloyiso loxolo lobuKristu, oluseluxolweni entliziyweni, uxolo ngolungelelwaniso lwentlalo, ebomini, impilo-ntle, ukuhloniphana, kunye nobuzwe bezizwe . —UPOPU UYOHANE XXIII, Uxolo lwenene lwamaKristu, Nge-23 kaDisemba ngo-1959; www.catholicculture.org

Ekugqibeleni kuya kwenzeka ukuba amanxeba amaninzi aphiliswe kwaye bonke ubulungisa buvele kwakhona ngethemba lokubuyiselwa kwegunya; ukuba ubukhazikhazi boxolo buhlaziyeke, neenkemba neengalo ziwe phantsi kwaye xa bonke abantu beya kubamkela ubukumkani bukaKrestu kwaye bathobele ilizwi lakhe ngokuzithandela, zize zonke iilwimi zivume ukuba iNkosi uYesu ikuZuko lukaYise. -UPOPE LEO XIII, Ukungcwaliswa kweNtliziyo eNgcwele, ngoMeyi 1899

Kananjalo, phantsi kokucelwa nguSt. John Paul II kulo lonke ulutsha, ndizifumana ndikwangomnye ...

… Abalindi ababhengeza kwihlabathi liphela elitsha ithemba, ubuzalwana noxolo.—UAPOPE JOHN PAUL II, kwidilesi yeGuellielli Youth Movement, nge-20 kaMatshi ngo-2002, www.v Vatican.va

Nangona kunjalo, kufanele kucace kubo bonke ukuba inguquko ebuhlungu sele iqalile, njengoko ubudlelwane phakathi kwamazwe, abantu kunye neentsapho buqhubeka ukonakala ngokuziphatha okuhle. Kufuneka sithandaze, hayi isohlwayo, kodwa inguquko-le ndoda iya kuphinda iziveze kwakhona kuKristu. Ngelixa uYesu wayechaza konke oku njengo “Ukuqala kweentlungu,” ^[10]cf. Mat 24: 8; UMarko 13: 8 Uye wasikhumbuza ukuba sibeke yonke into kumxholo:

Umfazi xa aza kuzala, uyaxhalaba, ngokuba ilixa lakhe lifikile; xa athe ke wazala umntwana, akabi sayikhumbula loo mbandezelo, ngenxa yovuyo lokuba kuzelwe umntwana ehlabathini. (UYohane 16:21)

Ngaphandle komsindo kaSathana, iNceba kaThixo iya kuloyisa ilizwe liphela kwaye iya kunqulwa yimiphefumlo yonke. -Inceba kaThixo kumphefumlo wam, Iidayari yeSt Faustina, n. 1789

Yabona, ndiya kubahlangula abantu bam elizweni eliphuma ilanga, nasezweni lasetshonalanga; Ndobabuyisa beme eYerusalem. Baya kuba ngabantu bam, mna ndibe nguThixo wabo, ngenyaniso nangobulungisa. (Ukufundwa kweMisa okokuqala namhlanje)
