Ubunye BobuKristu

NINI abaPhostoli baphinde balethwa phambi kweSanhedrini, abaphenduli njengabantu ngabanye, kodwa njengomphakathi.

We kufanele silalele uNkulunkulu kunabantu. (Ukufunda kokuqala)

Lo musho owodwa ugcwele imithelela. Okokuqala, bathi “thina,” ebonisa ubunye obuyisisekelo phakathi kwabo. Okwesibili, kuveza ukuthi abaPhostoli babengalandeli isiko labantu, kodwa isiko eliNgcwele uJesu abanikeza lona. Futhi okokugcina, isekela lokho esikufunde ekuqaleni kwaleli sonto, ukuthi abokuqala abaphenduka ngokulandelana babelandela imfundiso yabaPhostoli, okwakuyikaKristu.

Baqinisela emfundisweni yabaphostoli nasempilweni yomphakathi, nasekuhlephuleni isinkwa nasemithandazweni. ( IzEnzo 2:42 )

Ngokufanayo, namuhla, umphakathi wangempela uyiqiniso kuphela UmKrestu njengoba ilandela “imfundiso yabaphostoli.”

Wonke umphakathi, uma kufanele ube ngamaKristu, kufanele usekelwe kuKristu futhi uhlale kuye, njengoba ulalela izwi likaNkulunkulu, ugxilise umkhuleko wawo phezu kwe-Ekaristi, uphila esidlweni esiphawulwa ubunye benhliziyo nomphefumulo, kanye nezabelo. ngokwezidingo zamalungu ayo (bheka iZenzo 2: 42-47). Njengoba uPapa Paul VI akhumbula, wonke umphakathi kufanele uphile ngobunye neBandla elikhethekile kanye nelomhlaba wonke, ngenhlanganyelo esuka enhliziyweni nabefundisi beBandla kanye neMagisterium, ngokuzibophezela ekushumayeleni izithunywa zevangeli futhi ngaphandle kokuyekelela ekuzihlukaniseni noma ekuxhashazweni ngemibono. —ST. UJOHN PAUL II, URedemptoris Missio, hhayi. 51

Njengoba uPapa uFrancis asho ekuqaleni kwalonyaka, “Kuwukungavumelani okungenangqondo ukuthanda uKristu ngaphandle kweBandla; ukulalela uKristu, kodwa hhayi iBandla; ukuba noKristu emaphethelweni eBandla.” ^[1]cf. Homily, January 30th, 2014; ncr.com

Ungakhumbula umbhalo wami, Igagasi Elizayo Lobunye, lapho engahlanganyela khona izwi engalithola emkhulekweni:

Ukusuka eMpumalanga, kuzosakazeka njengegagasi, Ukuhamba kwami kobunye ngobunye… Ngizovula iminyango okungekho muntu ozoyivala; Ngizoletha ezinhliziyweni zabo bonke labo engibabiza ngofakazi ohlangene wothando… ngaphansi komalusi oyedwa, abantu oyedwa — ufakazi wokugcina phambi kwazo zonke izizwe.

Lokho kwaqinisekiswa kimi kamuva ngalolo suku, ngokumangalisayo, ngalokho ividiyo lapho uMbhishobhi we-Episcopal uTony Palmer edlala umlayezo oqoshiwe kaPapa Francis ethandazela ubunye. Kodwa ngaphambi kwalokho, uPalmer ukhuluma nesixuku mayelana nokubuyela ezimfundisweni zabaphostoli, futhi ufika aze athi: “Sonke singamaKatolika manje.” Lapho ubona uMoya oNgcwele esebenza, noma, okwamanje, ngokungaphelele kuzo zombili izinhlangothi zokwahlukana kobukholwa. Njengoba uJesu esho eVangelini lanamuhla:

Ngoba lowo uNkulunkulu amthumileyo ukhuluma amazwi kaNkulunkulu. Akasiniki isipho sakhe sikaMoya.

Ngokuncenga okunamandla kukaMama Wethu Obusisiwe kulezi zikhathi, kuyeza—futhi sekukhona kakade—okusha engalinganiselwe ukuthululwa kukaMoya ozoqinisa, uhlanze, futhi uhlanganise umzimba kaKristu. Iyeza, i ukuvuswa ngomusa. Futhi iyofinyelela umvuthwandaba kulokho uSt. John Paul II akubiza ngokuthi 'umphakathi omusha osekelwe “empucukweni yothando.”' ^[2]qhathanisa URedemptoris Missio, hhayi. 51

IBandla Lilodwa.

UMelusi oyedwa.

UMzimba Munye kuKristu, wavuka ekuhlushweni kokugcina kwalonyaka.

Ziningi izinhlupheko zolungileyo, kepha uJehova uyamkhulula kuzo zonke. (Ihubo Lanamuhla)

Siyanxusa [kukaMariya] ukuncenga kukamama ukuba iBandla libe yikhaya labantu abaningi, libe ngumama wabo bonke abantu, futhi kuvuleke indlela yokuzalwa komhlaba omusha. NguKristu Ovukile ositshelayo, ngamandla asigcwalisa ngokuqiniseka nethemba elingenakunyakaziswa: “Bheka, ngenza konke kube kusha” (IsAm. 21: 5). NoMariya siqhubekela phambili ngokuzethemba ekufezekiseni lesi sithembiso… —I-POPE FRANCIS, U-Evangelii Gaudium,n. 288
