…akumele sizithathe kancane izimo eziphazamisayo
lokho kusongela ikusasa lethu,
noma izinsimbi ezintsha ezinamandla
ukuthi “isiko lokufa”
inakho.
—I-POPE BENEDICT XVI, ICaritas eVeritate, hhayi. 75

Ngizamile ukukugwema ukungena emkhakheni wezepolitiki. Kodwa isihloko sakamuva ku-Drudge Report sangidonsa amehlo. Ingaphezulu kakhulu kangangokuba ngiphoqelekile ukuthi ngiphawule:Qhubeka ukufunda →

The Imaski, ngu-Michael D. O'Brien

 

Ishicilelwe okokuqala, ngo-Ephreli, 8th 2010.

 

THE isexwayiso enhliziyweni yami siyaqhubeka sikhula ngenkohliso ezayo, okungenzeka empeleni kube yileso esichazwe ku-2 Thes 2: 11-13. Okulandelayo ngemuva kwalokhu okubizwa ngokuthi “ukukhanya” noma “isexwayiso” akuyona nje inkathi emfushane kepha enamandla yokushumayela ivangeli, kepha kumnyama ukuphikisa-ukushumayela lokho, ngezindlela eziningi, kuzokholiseka ngendlela efanayo. Ingxenye yokulungiselela leyo nkohliso ukwazi ngaphambili ukuthi iyeza:

Kepha iNkosi uJehova ayenzi lutho, ingayambulanga amacebo ayo ezincekwini zayo, abaprofethi. Ngikusho lokhu konke kini, ukuze ningakhubeki. Bayonikhipha emasinagogeni; impela, isikhathi siyeza lapho noma ngubani onibulalayo eyocabanga ukuthi ukhonza uNkulunkulu. Futhi bazokwenza lokhu ngoba abamazanga uBaba, nami. Nginitshelile lokho, ukuze kuthi lapho kufika ihora, nikhumbule ukuthi ngakutshela zona. (Amose 3: 7; Johane 16: 1-4)

USathane akagcini ngokwazi okuzayo, kodwa ubesekuhlelela isikhathi eside. Kuvezwa kufayela le- ulimi iyasetshenziswa…Qhubeka ukufunda →

Isango lincane
futhi indlela inzima
okuholela ekuphileni,
futhi abalitholayo bayingcosana.
(Math 7: 14)

 

Kimina kubonakala sengathi le ndlela isibe yincane, inamandla, futhi inenkohliso kunanini ngaphambili. Manje, izinyembezi nezithukuthuku zabangcwele ziqala ukuvela ngaphansi kwezinyawo zomuntu; uvivinyo lwangempela lokholo lomuntu luba umqansa; imikhondo egcwele igazi yabafel’ ukholo, isamanzi ngenxa yomhlatshelo wabo, iyabenyezela ekuhwebeni okufiphalayo kwezikhathi zethu. KumKristu namuhla, kuyindlela egcwalisa umuntu ngokwesaba…. noma ebiza omunye ngokujula. Kanjalo, indlela ayinyathelwanga kangako, kufakazelwa imiphefumulo embalwa futhi embalwa ezimisele ukuthatha lolu hambo, ekugcineni, olulandela ezinyathelweni zeNkosi yethu.

Ngokuphikelela kwenu, nizovikela izimpilo zenu.
(Luka 21: 19)

 

A incwadi evela kumfundi...

Usanda kubuka ividiyo yakho noDaniel O'Connor. Kungani uNkulunkulu ebambezela umusa nokulunga Kwakhe?! Siphila ezikhathini ezimbi kakhulu kunangaphambi kukazamcolo omkhulu naseSodoma naseGomora. Isexwayiso esikhulu singabonakala "sinyakazisa" umhlaba futhi sibangele ukuguqulwa okukhulu. Kungani siqhubeka siphila ebubini nasebumnyameni obungaka kulo mhlaba, lapho amakholwa engasakwazi ukuma na?! UNkulunkulu ungu-AWOL [“ukude ngaphandle kokushiya”] futhi uSathane ubulala amakholwa nsuku zonke, futhi ukuhlasela akupheli… Sengilahlekelwe ithemba ngecebo Lakhe.

Oopapa kanye ne-Dawning Era

UJehova wakhuluma noJobe esesivunguvungwini, wathi:
"Wake wayala ekuseni empilweni yakho
futhi wabonisa ukusa indawo yakho
ngokubamba imikhawulo yomhlaba,
baze bazanyazanyiswa ababi ebusweni balo na?
( Jobe 38:1, 12-13 )

Siyakubonga ngoba iNdodana yakho izophinde ize ngobukhosi
wahlulele labo abenqaba ukuphenduka futhi bakuvume;
ngenkathi kubo bonke abakuvumayo,
ekukhonzile, futhi ekukhonza ngokuphenduka, Uzokwenza
ithi: Wozani, nina enibusiswe nguBaba, nilidle
yombuso enawulungiselelwa kusukela ekuqaleni
wezwe.

Tlapha akungabazeki ukuthi opapa bekhulunyaka elidlule bebesebenzisa isikhundla sabo sesiprofetho ukuze bavuse amakholwa ngedrama eyenzeka osukwini lwethu (bheka Kungani Abapapa Bengamemezi?). Kuyimpi ewumnqamulajuqu phakathi kwesiko lempilo kanye nesiko lokufa… owesifazane ogqokiswe ilanga - esemsebenzini ukuzala inkathi entsha—Ukuqhathanisa udrako ngubani ifuna ukubhubhisa , uma kungenjalo ukuzama ukusungula umbuso wakhe kanye "nenkathi entsha" (bona IsAm 12: 1-4; 13: 2). Kepha ngenkathi sazi ukuthi uSathane uzohluleka, uKristu ngeke. Usanta omkhulu waseMarian, uLouis de Montfort, uzimele kahle:
