UKUKHULA KWE-ECUMENISM. Manje kukhona igama okuthi, ngokuxakayo, lingaqala izimpi.

Ngempelasonto, labo babhalisele i- ukucabanga masonto onke wathola Igagasi Elizayo Lobunye. Ikhuluma ngobunye obuzayo obathandazelwa nguJesu — ukuthi “sonke sibe munye” - futhi kwaqinisekiswa yividiyo kaPapa Francis ethandazela lobu bunye. Ukuqagela, lokhu kudale ukudideka kwabaningi. “Lokhu kungukuqala kwenkolo eyodwa yomhlaba!” yisho okunye; abanye bathi, "Yilokhu ebengikuthandazela, iminyaka!" Futhi abanye, "Anginaso isiqiniseko sokuthi lokhu kuyinto enhle noma embi ..." Ngokuphazima kweso, ngizwa futhi umbuzo uJesu awubhekisa kubaPhostoli: “Wena uthi ngingubani?”Kepha kulokhu, ngiyakuzwa kuphindaphindwa ukubhekisa emzimbeni Wakhe, iBandla:Uthi lingubani iBandla Lami? ”

KwiVangeli lanamuhla, Abafundi nababhali babephikisana lapho uJesu ehla eNtabeni iThabori ngemuva kokuguqulwa isimo. Mhlawumbe bekungukunwetshwa kwalokho obekuxoxwa ngakho emavesini ambalwa phambilini eVangelini likaMark:

U-Eliya ngempela uzofika kuqala abuyisele zonke izinto, kepha kubhalwe kanjani ngokuphathelene neNdodana yomuntu ukuthi kufanele ihlupheke kakhulu futhi idelelwe? (UMakho 9:12)

Uyabona, ababhali babelindele ukuthi u-Eliya uzofika alethe inkathi yokuthula nobulungiswa lapho uMesiya wezepolitiki ayezogumbuqela amaRoma abuyise nokubusa kwamaJuda. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, abaPhostoli babesanda kutshelwa ukuthi uMesiya kumele "ahlupheke futhi afe." Futhi-ke kwakukhona “isixuku esikhulu” esibazungezile abathi, lapho bebona uJesu, “bamangala kakhulu” —kubo, wayemane nje enza izimangaliso. Ukudideka okungaka ngomsebenzi kaKristu!

UJesu wathi, “Mina ngiyindlela, neqiniso, nokuphila”—Hhayi nje, ngiyindlela, noma nje, ngiyiqiniso — kodwa bobathathu. Ngakho-ke kufanele sikubone lokhu kubonakala nasemzimbeni Wakhe ongaqondakali. Ukuqiniseka, kunabathile abathi iSonto limane “liyindlela” kaKristu, okungukuthi, yobulungiswa bezenhlalo nokuthanda abampofu — futhi yilokho kuphela okudingekayo. Bese kuba khona labo abathi konke okudingekayo ukunamathela ngokuqinile ezimfundisweni zalo, “eqinisweni.” Futhi abanye bathi iSonto limayelana nokuzwa “impilo” kaKristu kumusa, ekukhonzeni, kanye nakumuzwa womkhuleko. Inkinga ayikho kule mibono ethile yokuthunywa kweSonto, kodwa kunalokho emcabangweni we-myopic ongafaki omunye noma omunye.

Ukufundwa kwanamuhla kuyakuqinisekisa lokho yonke imibono emithathu ayingxenye yezinjongo zeBandla kanye nobunikazi balo: Sonke sibizelwe ukuthi siphile ukukholwa kwethu ngemisebenzi emihle yokuletha ubulungiswa kanye nokuthula emhlabeni wethu— “indlela”:

Ngubani phakathi kwenu ohlakaniphileyo noqondayo? Makakhombise imisebenzi yakhe ngempilo enhle ekuthobekeni okuvela ekuhlakanipheni. (Ukufunda kokuqala)

Isisekelo semisebenzi yethu emihle yimiyalo nemiyalo kaNkulunkulu etholakala eNkambisweni Engcwele— “iqiniso”:

Isimemezelo sikaJehova sithembekile, sinika abangenalwazi ukuhlakanipha. (Ihubo lanamuhla)

Futhi amandla eqiniso akhonjiswa ngamasiko wokuphila futhi azalwa ngomthandazo nangokusondelana noNkulunkulu— “impilo”:

Konke kungenzeka kumuntu onokholo. (IVangeli Lanamuhla)

Kusobala-ke, akunjalo, lapho izimpi futhi “umona nokufuna ukuvelela”Phakathi kwethu kuvela kuphi? Ukushoda kwe- ukuthobeka, of ukulalela emiyalweni, naku ukholo ngamandla kaNkulunkulu. Bobathathu bayadingeka.

Lokho kungukuqala kwe-ecumenism eyiqiniso.
