Umthendeleko kaBheleshatsare (1635), eRembrandt
Ukusukela oko kwenzeka kwiYunivesithi yase "Katolika" e-Notre Dame e-USA, apho u-Mongameli u-pro-ab0rtion wahlonitshwa kunye ne-pro-life ubanjiwe, lo mbhalo ubukhala ezindlebeni zam…
UKUSUSELA unyulo eCanada naseMelika apho abantu bakhethe uqoqosho endaweni yokutshabalalisa umntwana ongekazalwa njengowona mba ubalulekileyo, bendiweva la mazwi:
Umbhalo useludongeni.
Izolo kusasa, INkosi ityhile intsingiselo yala magama xa ndithandaza ukuFundwa okokuqala kweOfisi. UKumkani uBheleshatsare, unyana kakumkani waseBhabheli, wenza itheko apho bahlambela khona uThixo ngokusela iwayini kwizitya ezingcwele zengcwele eJerusalem.
Ngequbuliso kwavela iminwe yesandla somntu, yaqala ukubhala kudonga oludongeni lwebhotwe, ngqo emva kwesiphatho sezibane (Dan 5: 5)
Umprofeti uDaniyeli waziswa ukuba achaze lo mbhalo ungaqhelekanga:
Ukubhalwa kufundeka ngolu hlobo: Mene, Mene, Monopoly kwaye UParsin. Intsingiselo yamagama yile: Mene: UThixo unayo nganiswa ulawulo lwakho kwaye uyiphelise; Monopoly: ubukhe kubekwe ubunzima kwibhalansi kwaye ifunyenwe iswele; UParsin: ubukumkani bakho bahluliwe banikwa amaMedi kunye AmaPersi. (Dan 5: 25-28)
EMntla Melika, silinganisiwe kwaye silinganisiwe, kwaye ngokwenene, sifunyenwe silula. Kwaye hayi apha kuphela. UPopu Benedict ulumkise iYurophu ukuba ukushiya uKristu kukushiya iziseko zabo. I-Australia iphakathi kwamazwe asentshona athe aphambuka kabuhlungu kwiingcambu zawo. Kwaye kugquba okungekho sikweni kumazwe asakhasayo, aquka ubuhlwempu, oonongogo babantwana nokubulawa kwabantu.
Kwaye, ndiyakholelwa ukuba lifikile ixesha lokuba “izikumkani” zethu zahlulwe….
AMAXESHA EBHAMBO?
Utata ka-Belshazare, uKumkani uNebhukadenetsare, wayenephupha apho wabona ubukumkani besine boyise umhlaba “ngemihla yokugqibela” (Daniyeli 2:28). Yile nto ibhekiswa kuyo nguSt.
"Irhamncwa," Oko kukuthi, ubukhosi baseRoma. —UKhadinali John Henry Newman, Advent Sermons on Antichrist, iNtshumayelo III, Inkolo yomchasi-Kristu
Yindibano yezizwe ethi ekugqibeleni yoyise umhlaba wonke:
Kuya kubakho ubukumkani besine emhlabeni, obuya kuba buhluke kubo bonke ubukumkani; buya kuwudla bawugqibe wonke umhlaba, ubunyathelele phantsi, ubucukuce. (Daniyeli 7:23)
Ukuba ukuthathelwa ingqalelo kobu bukumkani besine kwakungabalulekanga, ndiyathandabuza ukuba uThixo ngewayephefumlele uDaniel no-St John ngemibono eneenkcukacha ngeli rhamncwa. Ndiziva ndinyanzelekile ukuba ndixoxe ngayo apha, ukuze ukuba ezi zinto zidlule kumaxesha ethu, siyakuyazi. Njengoko watshoyo uYesu,
Ezi zinto ndizithethile kuni, ukuze, xa lithe lafika ilixa, nizikhumbule ukuba mna ndandinixelele. ukukugcina ungawi. (UJohn 16: 4, 1)
Kuba ubukhosi baseRoma bungazange buwe ngokupheleleyo, i-European Union kunye nabangaphantsi kwayo lulwandiso lwayo. Ngelixa kukho izizwe ezingama-27 kuManyano, kuphela Shumi kuwo onke amalungu asemthethweni. Unxibelelwano luyabonakala kwimibono kaDaniel noSt.
Lalahlukile kuwo onke amarhamncwa abengaphambi kwalo; kwaye wayenayo Shumi iimpondo… ndabona irhamncwa liphuma elwandle Shumi iimpondo… (Daniyeli 7: 7, ISityhi 13: 1)
Kukuzi mpondo zilishumi apho olunye uphondo luvela ngesiquphe.
Olu phondo lwalunamehlo anjengomntu, kwaye umlomo wawuthetha ngokuzikhukhumalisa… olo phondo lwenza imfazwe nxamnye nabo bangcwele lwaza lwaphumelela de kwafika oweNdala… (Daniyeli 7: 8, 21-22)
Uphondo ngumchasi-Kristu. Kodwa kunantoni yokwenza le "yokubhala eludongeni?" UDaniyeli uthi, obu bukumkani besine, okanye irhamncwa, “buza kulidla ihlabathi lonke, balicole”ukwahlula izikumkani, oko kukuthi. Ulawulo lweentlanga luya kupheliswa okanye lutyunyuzwe; iimali ziya kudityaniswa; kunye ubunye bobuxoki iyakunyanzeliswa kuwo wonke umntu emhlabeni. Irhamncwa liya kunyanzela…
… Abancinane nabakhulu, abazizityebi nabangamahlwempu, abakhululekileyo nabangamakhoboka, ukuba baphawulwe esandleni sasekunene okanye ebunzi, ukuze kungabikho mntu unokuthenga okanye athengise ngaphandle kokuba unophawu, oko kukuthi, igama lerhamncwa okanye inani lamagama ayo. (ISityhi. 13: 16-17)
Eyona nto ingumnqa, okanye engoyikiyo, ngumfanekiso oqingqiweyo ongaphandle kweBhunga laseYurophu eBrussels lowomfazi okhwele irhamncwa (“Europa”): uphawu olufana ncam nesiTyhilelo 17… ihenyukazi likhwele irhamncwa lineempondo ezilishumi.
Kuthethwe ngokuvulekileyo

Ukunyuka kweNkqubo entsha yeHlabathi kubonakala kungasenawo umbuzo, kodwa imfuno evulekileyo. Inkulumbuso yase-UK, uGordon Brown, udlulise intetho ephambili yomgaqo-nkqubo wezangaphandle ukuba sifikile "kwithuba" lomyalelo omtsha:

Owayesakuba yinkokheli yase-Russia uMikhail Gorbachev naye wongeze ilizwi lakhe kwinani elikhulayo leenkokheli zehlabathi ezibiza inkqubo entsha yehlabathi:
… I-perestroika yelizwe jikelele [ulwakhiwo ngokutsha] ingayimpendulo ebambekayo kwingxaki yehlabathi… Iparadigm yophuhliso lwehlabathi izakutshintsha. -IRIA uNovisti, EMoscow, ngoNovemba 7, 2008

Enye yeengxelo ezothusayo, ezazishukunyiswa yintshukumo enamandla emva kwezigcawu ezinokuthi zitshintshe ngokupheleleyo indlela abantu abarhweba ngayo, yenziwa e-Itali:
Umbono wokumiswa kweemarike ngexesha elithathayo ukubhala imigaqo kwakhona kuyaxoxwa, '' Utsho uBerlusconi namhlanje emva kwentlanganiso yeKhabhinethi eNaples, e-Itali. Isisombululo kwingxaki yemali Ayinakuba yelizwe elinye, okanye i-Yurophu kuphela, kodwa ibe yeyamazwe onke. '' -Umphathiswa Wezobuphathiswa uServio Berlusconi, nge-8 ka-Okthobha ka-2008; Bloomberg.com
Ukuba amaKristu kufuneka "abukele kwaye athandaze," ahlala ephaphile kumaxesha ethu, ndingabuza le mibuzo: ingaba luhlobo luni lwenkqubo lehlabathi silinde ukuzalisekisa inkcazo "yerhamncwa"? Sigqibele nini ukuba semngciphekweni worhulumente wehlabathi kunye noqoqosho lwehlabathi? Kwakugqibele nini ukuba iCawa ibe luwexuko olukhulu kangangokuba abo balandela iimfundiso zalo babefanele ukubizwa ngokuba "yintsalela"? Wakhe wasondela phi ixesha lokujongana nentshutshiso yehlabathi?
Ndicinga ukuba kufuneka sinikele ingqalelo. Ngokukodwa njenge magama Obu busika buzayo emhlabeni buqhubeka nokuthethwa ngokuvulekileyo:
Ngamanye amaxesha ndifunda isicatshulwa seVangeli samaxesha okuphela kwaye ndiyangqina ukuba, ngeli xesha, ezinye iimpawu zeli xesha ziyavela. —UAPOPE PAUL VI, Imfihlo kaPaul VI, UJean Guitton
Ukuhamba noMark kwi The Ngoku iLizwi,
cofa kwibhena engezantsi ukuya rhuma.
I-imeyile yakho ayizokwabelwana naye nabani na.
