"LAPHO iqiniso elilodwa elibuhlungu ebuKristwini lokuthi ezikhathini zethu, ngisho nangaphezu kwamakhulu eminyaka adlule, livusa ukwethuka okungathethekiyo enhliziyweni yomuntu. Leloqiniso lingezinhlungu zaphakade zesihogo. Ngokubhekiselwa nje kule mfundiso, izingqondo ziyakhathazeka, izinhliziyo ziyaqina futhi zithuthumele, izinkanuko ziba lukhuni futhi zivuthe ngokumelene nale mfundiso namazwi angamukeleki ayimemezelayo. ” [1]Ukuphela Kwezwe Lamanje kanye Nezimfihlakalo Zempilo Yesikhathi Esizayo, nguFr. UCharles Arminjon, k. 173; ISophia Institute Press
Lawo ngamazwi kaFr. Charles Arminjon, yabhalwa ngekhulu le-19. Kakhulu kangakanani asebenza ekuzweleni kwamadoda nabesifazane ngama-21! Ngoba akukhona nje ukuthi ingxoxo ngesihogo ivinjelwe abezombusazwe abalungile, noma ababheka njengabakhohlisayo abanye, kepha ngisho nezinye izazi zemfundiso yenkolo nabefundisi baphethe ngokuthi uNkulunkulu onesihe akanakukuvumela ukuhlukunyezwa okunje.
Lokho kuyishwa ngoba akulishintshi iqiniso lokuthi isihogo singokoqobo.
SIYINI ISIHOGO?
Izulu lingukugcwaliseka kwazo zonke izifiso zomuntu eziyiqiniso, ezingafingqwa ngokuthi isifiso sothando. Kepha umqondo wethu wobuntu wokuthi ubukeka kanjani, nokuthi uMdali uluveza kanjani lolo thando ebuhleni bePharadesi, awufinyeleli kulokho iZulu elikufana nentuthwane lapho ingakwazi ukufinyelela phezulu ithinte umphetho wendawo yonke. .
Isihogo ukuphucwa iZulu, noma-ke, ukuncishwa kukaNkulunkulu okukhona ngaye konke ukuphila.
Kungukulahleka kobukhona Bakhe, umusa waKhe, umusa waKhe. Yindawo lapho izingelosi eziwile zafakwa khona, futhi ngemuva kwalokho, lapho imiphefumulo ngokufanayo iya khona enqaba ukuphila ngokuvumelana no umthetho wothando emhlabeni. Kuyisinqumo sabo. Ngoba uJesu wathi,
Uma ungithanda, uzogcina imiyalo yami… “Ngiqinisile, ngithi kuwe, ongakwenzelanga noyedwa walaba abancinyane, awukwenzi kimi.” Futhi laba bayoya ekujezisweni okuphakade, kodwa abalungileyo baye ekuphileni okuphakade. (Johane 14:15; Math 25: 45-46)
Isihogo, ngokusho koFata beSonto nodokotela abaningana, kukholakala ukuthi sisenkabeni yomhlaba, [2]isib. ULuka 8:31; Rom 10: 7; IsAm 20: 3 noma kunjalo iMagisterium ayikaze yenze isimemezelo esicacile maqondana nalokhu.
UJesu akazange azibalekele ukukhuluma ngesihogo, iSt. John esichaze njengo “Ichibi lomlilo nesibabule.” [3]isib. IsAm 20:10 Engxoxweni yakhe ngesilingo, uJesu waxwayisa ngokuthi kungcono ukusika izandla kunesono — noma uholele “abancane” esonweni — kunokuba ube nezandla ezimbili “Ngena eGehena emlilweni ongacimi… lapho 'impethu yabo ingafi, nomlilo ungacimi.'” [4]isib. Marku 9: 42-48
Ukudweba kusuka emakhulwini eminyaka wezinto eziyimfihlakalo neziseduze nokufa kwabangewona amakholwa nabangcwele ngokufanayo abakhonjiswa isikhashana isihogo, izincazelo zikaJesu kwakungezona ezehaba noma i-hypebole: isihogo yilokho athi siyikho. Kungukufa okuphakade, nayo yonke imiphumela yokungabikho kwempilo.
UMGOMO WESIHOGO
Empeleni, uma isihogo singekho-ke ubuKrestu buyinkohliso, ukufa kukaJesu kwaba yize, umyalo wokuziphatha ulahlekelwa isisekelo sawo, futhi ubuhle noma ububi, ekugcineni, kwenza umehluko omncane. Ngoba uma umuntu ephila impilo yakhe manje ethambekela ebubini nasebubni bobugovu futhi omunye aphile impilo yakhe ngobuhle nokuzidela — kepha bobabili bagcine ngokuthokoza kwaphakade — pho yini inhloso yokuba khona "okuhle", ngaphandle kokuthi mhlawumbe ukugwema ijele noma okunye ukungakhululeki? Ngisho namanje, kumuntu wenyama okholelwa esihogweni, amalangabi esilingo amhlula kalula ngomzuzu wesifiso esinamandla. Ubenganqotshwa kangakanani uma azi ukuthi, ekugcineni, uzohlanganyela enjabulweni efanayo nekaFrancis, Augustine, noFaustina noma ngabe uyazitika noma cha?
Liyini iphuzu loMsindisi, ikakhulu lowo owehlise isithunzi sakhe kumuntu futhi wahlupheka kabuhlungu kakhulu, uma ekugcineni
konke kulondoloziwe? Iyini injongo eyisisekelo yokuhleleka kokuziphatha uma amaNeros, uStalins noHitler bomlando nokho bezothola imivuzo efanayo naleyo kaMama Teresas, uThomas Moores, kanye nabangcwele abangamaFranciscans bakudala? Uma umvuzo wabahahayo ufana nowabantu abangenabugovu, khona-ke empeleni, manje uma injabulo yePharadesi, okungenani, ibambezelekile kancane ohlelweni lwaphakade?
Cha, iZulu elinjalo alinabulungisa, kusho uPapa Benedict:
Umusa awususi ubulungiswa. Akukwenzi okungalungile kube okulungile. Akusona isiponji esisula yonke into, ukuze noma yini umuntu ayenzile emhlabeni igcine inenani elilinganayo. UDostoevsky, ngokwesibonelo, wayeqinisile ngokubhikisha ngalolu hlobo lweZulu nalolu hlobo lomusa kwinoveli yakhe Abafowethu Karamazov. Abenzi bokubi, ekugcineni, abahlali etafuleni edilini laphakade eceleni kwezisulu zabo ngaphandle kokwehlukanisa, sengathi akwenzekanga lutho. -Khuluma uSalvi, n. 44, v Vatican.va
Ngaphandle kwemibhikisho yalabo abacabanga umhlaba ongenamkhawulo, ulwazi lokuba khona kwesihogo lushukumisele amadoda amaningi ekuphendukeni kunezintshumayelo eziningi ezinhle. Umcabango nje we okuphakade Umgodi wosizi nokuhlupheka kwanele ukuthi abanye baphike ubumnandi behora esikhundleni sobuhlungu baphakade. Isihogo sikhona njengomfundisi wokugcina, uphawu lokugcina lokusindisa izoni ekujuleni okwethusayo okuvela kuMdali wazo. Njengoba yonke imiphefumulo yomuntu ingunaphakade, lapho sishiya leli bhanoyi lasemhlabeni, siphila ngokuqhubekayo. Kepha kulapha lapho kufanele sikhethe ukuthi sizohlala kuphi kuze kube phakade.
IVANGELI LOKUPHENDUKA
Ingqikithi yalokhu kubhala ingemuva kweSinodi eRome (ngokubonga) elethe ukuhlolwa kukanembeza kwabaningi — kokubili i-orthdox kanye nezinqubekela phambili — abalahlekelwe umbono ngomsebenzi weqiniso weSonto: ukushumayela ivangeli. Ukusindisa imiphefumulo. Ukubasindisa, ekugcineni, ekulahlweni kwaphakade.
Uma ufisa ukwazi ukuthi sinzima kangakanani isono, bheka isiphambano. Bheka umzimba kaJesu owophayo nowaphukile ukuze uqonde okushiwo yimiBhalo:
Kodwa-ke uzuzeni ngaleso sikhathi ezintweni osenamahloni ngazo manje? Ngoba ukuphela kwalezo zinto ngukufa. Kepha manje senikhululiwe esonweni naba yizigqila zikaNkulunkulu, inzuzo eninayo iholela ekungcwelisweni, futhi ukuphela kwayo kungukuphila okuphakade. Ngokuba inkokhelo yesono ingukufa, kepha isipho somusa sikaNkulunkulu singukuphila okuphakade kuKristu Jesu iNkosi yethu. (Rom 6: 21-23)
UJesu wathatha kuye inkokhelo yesono. Wabakhokhela ngokugcwele. 
Wehlela kwabafileyo, wagqabula amaketanga ayevale iminyango yePharadesi, wavula indlela eya ekuphileni okuphakade kuwo wonke umuntu obeka ithemba lakhe Kuye, nakho konke Akucela kithi.
Ngokuba uNkulunkulu walithanda izwe kangaka waze wanikela ngeNdodana yakhe ezelwe yodwa, ukuze wonke umuntu okholwa yiyo angabhubhi kodwa abe nokuphila okuphakade. (Johane 3:16)
Kepha kulabo abafunda la mazwi kepha nokho banganaki ukuphela kwalesi sahluko, abagcini nje ngokuhlukumeza imiphefumulo, kepha bazibeka engcupheni yokuba yisithiyo esivimbela abanye ukungena ekuphileni okuphakade:
Okholwa eNdodaneni unokuphila okuphakade; kepha ongayilaleli iNdodana ngeke akubone ukuphila, kepha ulaka lukaNkulunkulu lumi phezu kwakhe. (Johane 3:36)
"Ulaka" lukaNkulunkulu ubulungiswa Bakhe. Lokho kusho ukuthi, inkokhelo yesono ihlala kulabo abangasamukeli isipho abasinikwa nguJesu, isipho somusa waKhe esisusa izono zethu ngaso ukuthethelelwa-Okusho ukuthi-ke sizomlandela ngokulandela imithetho yemvelo neyokuziphatha esifundisa ukuthi siphile kanjani. Inhloso kaBaba ukudweba wonke umuntu ngamunye ekuhlanganyeleni Naye. Akunakwenzeka ukuba sebunyeni noNkulunkulu, oluthando, uma senqaba ukuthanda.
Ngoba ngomusa nisindisiwe ngokukholwa, futhi lokhu akuveli kini; kuyisipho sikaNkulunkulu; akuveli emisebenzini, ukuze kungabikho ozibongayo. Ngoba singumsebenzi wezandla zakhe, sidalelwe kuKristu Jesu ngemisebenzi emihle uNkulunkulu ayilungiselele ngaphambili, ukuze siphile kuyo. (Efe 2: 8-9)
Uma kukhulunywa ngokuvangela-ke, umyalezo wethu uhlala ungaphelele uma singakunaki ukuxwayisa isoni ukuthi isihogo sikhona njengenketho esiyenzayo ngokuphikelela esonweni esingathi sína kunokuthi senze "imisebenzi emihle." Izwe likaNkulunkulu. Kungumyalo Wakhe. Futhi sonke sizokwahlulelwa ngolunye usuku ngokuthi ngabe sikhethe ukungena emyalweni waKhe noma cha (futhi oh, uhambe kangakanani kuwo wonke amandla ukubuyisela ukuhleleka kokuphila kukaMoya ngaphakathi kwethu!).
Kodwa-ke, ukugcizelelwa kweVangeli akulona usongo, kepha isimemo. Njengoba uJesu asho, "UNkulunkulu akazange athumele iNdodana yakhe emhlabeni ukuba yahlulele umhlaba, kodwa ukuze izwe lisindiswe ngayo." [5]isib. Johane 3:17 Umndeni wokuqala kaSt. Peter ngemuva kwePhentekoste ukuveza kahle lokhu:
Ngakho-ke phendukani, nibuye futhi, ukuze kusulwe izono zenu, ukuze kufike izikhathi zokuziqabula ezivela ebusweni beNkosi… (Izenzo 3:19)
Isihogo sinjengendlwana emnyama enenja enolaka ngemuva kweminyango yayo, elungele ukubhubhisa, ukwesabisa, nokushwabadela noma ngubani ongena. Akunakuba njalo
nesihe ukuvumela abanye bazulazule kuyo besaba "ukubacasula". Kepha umyalezo wethu omaphakathi njengamaKrestu akuyona leyo elele lapho, kodwa ngaphesheya kweminyango yensimu yaseZulwini lapho uNkulunkulu asilinde khona. Futhi “Uyosula zonke izinyembezi emehlweni abo, ukufa akusayikuba-khona, nokudabuka, nokukhala, nobuhlungu akusayikuba-khona.” [6]isib. 21: 4
Futhi-ke, nathi siyehluleka ukufakaza kwethu uma sidlulisela kwabanye ukuthi iZulu “bese”, sengathi aliqali manje. Ngoba uJesu wathi:
Phendukani, ngoba umbuso wezulu ususondele. (Math 4:17)
Impilo engunaphakade ingaqala enhliziyweni yomuntu lapha manje, njengokufa kwaphakade, nazo zonke "izithelo" zayo, kuqala manje kulabo abazitika ngezethembiso eziyize nobukhazikhazi besono. Sinezigidi zobufakazi obuvela kubantu abayimilutha yezidakamizwa, izifebe, ababulali, nabantu abancane abanjengami abangafakazela ukuthi iNkosi iyaphila, amandla ayo angokoqobo, izwi Layo liyiqiniso. Futhi injabulo yaKhe, ukuthula nenkululeko yakhe kulindele bonke labo ababeka ukholo lwabo kuYe namuhla, ngoba…
… Manje yisikhathi esamukelekayo kakhulu; bheka, manje lusuku lwensindiso. (2 Kor 2: 6)
Impela, okuzoqinisekisa abanye ubuqiniso bomlayezo weVangeli kulapho “benambitha futhi bebona” uMbuso kaNkulunkulu kuwe…
