Olu yayingelonyulo. Yayiyinguqulelo… Ubusuku bobusuku budlule. Usuku olutsha lufikile. Kwaye yonke into sele iza kutshintsha.
-UDaniel Greenfield ovela "eMelika Ukunyuka", nge-9 kaNovemba, 2016; Iindonga.com
OR malunga nokutshintsha, kwaye kube ngcono?
AmaKristu amaninzi e-United States ayabhiyozela namhlanje, ebhiyozela ngokungathi “ubusuku budlulile” kwaye usuku olutsha lufikile. Ndithandaza ngentliziyo yam yonke ukuba, eMelika ubuncinci, oku kuyakuba yinyani. Ukuba iingcambu zobuKristu zolo hlanga ziya kuba nethuba lokuchuma kwakhona. Oko zonke amabhinqa aya kuhlonitshwa, kuquka nalawo esesiswini. Inkululeko yenkolo iya kubuyiselwa, kwaye uxolo luya kuzalisa imida yakhe.
Kodwa ngaphandle kukaYesu Krestu kunye neVangeli yakhe njengo umthombo yenkululeko yelizwe, iya kuba luxolo olungeyonyani kunye nokhuseleko lobuxoki.
Njengobundlobongela bezopolitiko kunye nokuhlaziya unyulo lwaseMelika, ndiyathandaza ukuba sibenobulumko bokubona owona mfanekiso mkhulu uqhubeka kwilizwe lethu. Kufuneka sibuyele umva, nangaphaya kwesizukulwana sethu, ukuze siqonde ukuba kwenzeka ntoni ngeli xesha. A umoya wenguqu ikhutshiwe, kwaye ibilixesha elithile. Njengoko uPopu Leo XIII watshoyo, yi…
… Umoya wotshintsho olwaqala ukuphazamisa izizwe zehlabathi… abekho abambalwa abazaliswe yimithetho-siseko emibi nabalangazelela inguquko, abanjongo zabo ziphambili kukuvusa uqhushululu nokukhuthaza abanye babo kwizenzo zobundlobongela. . -I-POPE LEO XIII, Ileta ye-Adv IRerum Novarumn. 1, 38; IVatican.va
Eso silumkiso sesiprofeto salandelwa yimvukelo yamaTaliyane, iSpanish, ubuKomanisi namaNazi. Kodwa ngelixa udonga lwawa eSoviet Union, lo moya wotshintsho awukwenzi. Endaweni yokuba, ngokufihlakeleyo, ngokuzolileyo, isasaze iimpazamo zayo kwihlabathi liphela, oko kukuthi, ukungakholelwa kubukho bukaThixo ziqhutywa kukuziphatha okuhle.
Oku kuthetha ukuba ivoti yaseBritani "iBrexit" yokulahla i-EU, unyulo lwaseMelika lwakutshanje olwalukhaba ukusekwa, ukunyuka kwelungelo laseYurophu ... ayibonisi ukuba amazwe aya guquka, kodwa ubuzwe kunye nokuzikhusela. Ukubhukuqa oorhulumente, nkqu noorhulumente abonakeleyo, asiyonto imbi leyo. Kodwa yintoni ezalisa isikhala emva koko?
Uninzi lwamazwe aseNtshona ahamba ngokukhawuleza kude kwimilinganiselo yokuziphatha kungekho mqondiso woguquko olunzulu emehlweni. Yintoni eyona nto ixhalabisa abantu? Ayikokuphulukana nokholo kuThixo, kodwa ngokokuvota, "uqoqosho", "uxolo" kunye "nokhuseleko". Ngapha koko, inkolo elungelelanisiweyo ibonwa ngakumbi nangakumbi njenge inxalenye yokusekwa ekufuneka ibhukuqiwe, ngakumbi njengoko amanyundululu ezesondo kunye nezemali kujongela phantsi amahlelo aqhelekileyo, ngakumbi iCawa yamaKatolika.
Konke oku kuthetha ukuba umoya wenguquko womhla wethu unegama: umoya we umchasi-Kristu.
Nabani na ophika ukuba uYesu unguKrestu. Othe wamkhanyela uYise noNyana, lowo ungumchasi-Kristu. (1 Yohane 2:22)
Ukukhanyela ukuba uYesu unguMesiya, uMsindisi, oko akuthethi kuthi ngokwengqondo siyikhabe indima yakhe yembali. Endaweni yoko, kukwala oko kuthethayo: ukuba ndimfune ukuba andisindise. Inkqubo ye- umoya womchasi-Kristu, ke ngoko, uzibeka embindini wendalo iphela, kunoThixo. Ukusuka kwindawo yam eludongeni lomlindi, andiwuboni lo moya uhlehla, nditsho neziphumo zonyulo lwaseMelika. Endaweni yokuba, kubuKrestu ubuqu, kukho ukukhula ...
… Ulawulo lobuzwilakhe oluye lwangqina ukuba akukho nto iqinisekileyo, kwaye eshiya njengoyena ndoqo womntu kunye neminqweno yakhe. Ukuba nokholo olucacileyo, ngokobungqina beCawa, kuhlala kubizwa ngokuba sisiseko. Ukanti, ukuthembela kubukho babantu, oko kukuthi, ukuvumela ubani ukuba aphoswe phantsi kwaye 'akhukuliswe yiyo yonke imimoya yeemfundiso', kubonakala kuphela kwesimo sengqondo esamkelekileyo kwimilinganiselo yanamhlanje. -Ukhadinali Ratzinger (UPAPA BENEDICT XVI) pre-conclave Homily, Epreli 18th, 2005
Anditsho ukuba ndinethemba. Kodwa inyani yeyokuba ubuKatolika eNtshona bukuwa ngokukhululekileyo, ngaphandle kwentsalela yemiphefumlo ebambelele kukholo lwenene. Isizathu kukuba lo moya wotshintsho kumbiwe amazinyo nzulu kwesi sizukulwana senzakeleyo.
Kumlo wosapho, kwalengcinga yokuba umntu uthetha ntoni - iyathandatyuzwa… Umbuzo wosapho… ngumbuzo wento ethethwa kukuba yindoda, nokuba kufuneka ntoni benze amadoda okwenyani… Obu buxoki bunzulu bale nkolelo [yokuba isini ayisiseyona nto iyindalo kodwa yindima yentlalo abantu abazikhethele yona] kunye nenguquko yoluntu esikuyo icacile… —UPOPE BENEDICT XVI, nge-21 kaDisemba ka-2012
Kuthetha ukuba umntu uphulukana nobuntu bakhe: wenziwe “ngokomfanekiselo kaThixo.” Kananjalo, isizathu sobukho bethu, intsingiselo kunye nexabiso lokubandezeleka, kunye nenjongo yobomi… incitshisiwe yaba kukuzonwabisa okomzuzwana kunye nokufumana. Kungenxa yoko le nto ngoku Uguquko lwehlabathi, Sibona abantu abaninzi beshenxela elukholweni — sibeka intembelo, kunoko, kwizibonelelo zethu.
Inkqubela phambili kunye nesayensi zisinike amandla okulawula amandla endalo, ukuguqula iimeko, ukuvelisa izinto eziphilayo, phantse ukuya kuthi ga kwinqanaba lokuvelisa abantu ngokwabo. Kule meko, ukuthandaza kuThixo kubonakala kuphelelwe lixesha, kungenantsingiselo, kuba sinokwakha kwaye senze nantoni na esiyifunayo. Asiqondi ukuba siphila amava afanayo neBhabheli. —UPOPE BENEDICT XVI, ngePentekoste Homily, ngoMeyi 27, 2102
Ngaba le yenye yeendlela zokuthetha okufundiswa kwiCatechism?
Eyona nkohliso iphambili yenkolo yeyomchasi-Kristu, ubuxoki-mesiya apho umntu azizukisayo endaweni kaThixo noMesiya wakhe ozele esenyameni. -Katekisiki yeCawa yamaKatolika, n. I-675
Njengokuba iziphumo zonyulo zajika zathandeka kuDonald Trumps, amazwi kaSt Paul akhanya engqondweni yam:
Kuba xenikweni baya kuthi, Luxolo nokunqaba, oko baya kufikelwa yintshabalaliso ngebhaqo, kwanjengenimba komithiyo; baye bengayi kukha basinde. (1 Tesalonika 5: 3)
Oopopu balumkise kaninzi ukuba kukho amagunya "angaziwayo" asebenzayo kwihlabathi, ngakumbi ngemibutho efihlakeleyo, ekhuthaza kwaye ikhuthaza lo moya wenguqulelo. Akufanele silindele ukuba bahambe nje kunye nokhetho lukaTrump. Kweli “rhamncwa” likhulayo linyanzelisa oko uPopu Francis akubiza ngokuba 'kuphela kwengcinga' [1]cf. Homily, nge-18 kaNovemba, 2013; Zenit apho 'ubukhosi obungabonakaliyo' [2]cf. Intetho kwiPalamente yaseYurophu nakwiBhunga laseYurophu, nge-25 kaNovemba, 2014; imvblass.com yiba 'ziinkosi zesazela' [3]cf. Homily eCasa Santa Martha, ngoMeyi wesi-2, 2014; Zenit.org Ukunyanzela wonke umntu 'kwihlabathi liphela ngokufana kwehegemonic' [4]cf. Homily, nge-18 kaNovemba, 2013; Zenit kunye 'neenkqubo ezifanayo zamandla ezoqoqosho.' [5]cf. Intetho kwiPalamente yaseYurophu nakwiBhunga laseYurophu, nge-25 kaNovemba, 2014; imvblass.com
Ngubani onokuthelekisa irhamncwa okanye ngubani onokulwa nalo? (ISityhi. 13: 4)
IsiVumelwano semozulu saseParis besingaphezulu kwesivumelwano sokutshintsha kwemozulu; yayilinyathelo eliya kulungelelwaniso ngokutsha lobukhosi bamazwe nolawulo lwehlabathi. Ngoqoqosho lwaseMelika malunga nenkxaso yobomi, ikamva lelo lizwe lisenokuba lilele ngaphaya kwezandla zikaDonald Trump.
Sicinga ngamagunya amakhulu omhla wangoku, wezinto ezingaziwayo zemali eziguqula abantu babe ngamakhoboka, ezingasekhoyo izinto zabantu, kodwa ngamandla angaziwayo asebenza ngabantu, abathi abantu bangcungcuthekiswe bade babulawe. Bona zingamandla atshabalalisayo, amandla awoyikisa umhlaba. -UPOPE BENEDICT XVI, Umbono emva kokufundwa kwe-ofisi yeYure yesiThathu ngale ntsasa kwi-Sinodi Aula, e-Vatican City, nge-11 ka-Okthobha ka-2010.
[i] Izabelo zeNew Age nenani le amaqela anempembelelo kumazwe ngamazwe, Usukelo lokuthatha indawo okanye lokugqitha kwiinkolo ezithile ukwenza indawo ye inkolo yendalo yonke enokuhlanganisa ubuntu. Okunxulumene ngokusondeleyo noku ngumzamo omanyeneyo kwicala lamaziko amaninzi ekuyileni Ukuziphatha kwiHlabathi liphela. -UYesu Krestu, UMphathi waManzi oBomi, n. I-2.5 , AmaBhunga ooPopu kwiNkcubeko nakwiNtetho yezeNkolo
Ngaba unyulo lukaTrump lutshitshise iinjongo zabo ezaziwayo zokunciphisa abantu behlabathi ngokuthanda ugqatso "olugqibeleleyo"? [6]cf. UkuThola okuKhulu Ukuba ikhona into, kusenokwenzeka ukuba yomeleze iinjongo zabo zedemon ukunciphisa oko uClinton abhekisa kuko njenge "bhasikidi yezothuso." Kwisincoko sakhe sokudityaniswa kwehlabathi, umbhali uMichael D. O'Brien ubhala athi:
AbaMesiya abatsha, ekuzameni ukuguqula uluntu lube yinto ehlangeneyo yokuqhawulwa kuMdali wakhe, baya kuthi ngokungazi bazise intshabalalo yenxalenye enkulu yoluntu. Baza kuveza izinto ezoyikekayo ezingazange zibonwe ngaphambili: indlala, izifo, iimfazwe, kwaye ekugqibeleni ubulungisa bukaThixo. Ekuqaleni baya kusebenzisa ukunyanzelwa ukuqhubela phambili ukunciphisa inani labemi, kwaye ukuba oko kuyasilela baya kusebenzisa amandla. -UMichael D. O'Brien, Ihlabathi kunye noMyalelo weHlabathi oMtshaMatshi 17, 2009
The Umtsha Ekuseni kuya kudityaniswa ngabantu ngabantu abafezekileyo, abalawulwa ngokupheleleyo kwimithetho yendalo. Kule meko, ubuKrestu kufuneka bususwe buyeke inkolo yehlabathi kunye nolawulo lwehlabathi elitsha. - ‚UYesu Krestu, UMphathi waManzi oBomi, n. I-4, AmaBhunga ooPopu kwiNkcubeko nakwiNtetho yezeNkolo
Okucacileyo kunyulo lwase-US kukuba umlo ophakathi kokukhanya nobumnyama uboniswa ngokupheleleyo. Ngenxa yobundlongondlongo kunye noqhankqalazo, kuyacaca ngokufanayo ukuba ungquzulwano lude kakhulu.
Sijongene nengxabano yokugqibela phakathi kweCawa kunye ne-anti-Church, yeVangeli kunye ne-anti-Gospel, phakathi kukaKristu noMchasi-Kristu.. -Ukhadinali Karol Wojtyla (JOHN PAUL II), kwi-Eucharistic Congress, ePhiladelphia, PA; Agasti 13, 1976; Umdikoni Keith Fournier, obekho kwiCongress, uxele la magama angentla; cf. Katolika kwi-Intanethi
Ndiyavuma ukuba esi sizathu sokuba uMama wethu aqhubeke nokuvela, aqhubeke nokukhonkotha ubuntu ukuba babuyele kuNyana wakhe, aqhubeke nokulila kwimifanekiso yakhe nakwimifanekiso eqingqiweyo kwihlabathi liphela. Intliziyo yakhe engagungqiyo iya koyisa… kodwa ngaphambi kwendleko?
Oko kungagqitywa, ngokuyinxenye, ngokuzila kwethu ukutya, ukuthandaza, kunye nokuguqula ...
