NJALO Ngiphikisene nabangakholelwa ebukhoneni bukaNkulunkulu, ngithola ukuthi cishe ngaso sonke isikhathi kunesahlulelo esiyisisekelo: amaKrestu angamajaji okwahlulela. Empeleni, bekungukukhathazeka uPapa Benedict ake wakuzwakalisa — ukuthi kungenzeka ukuthi sibeka inyawo elingalungile ezinyaweni:
Imvamisa ufakazi weSonto ophikisana namasiko akaqondwa kahle njengezinto ezibuyela emuva nezimbi emphakathini wanamuhla. Yingakho kubalulekile ukugcizelela izindaba ezimnandi, umyalezo ophilisayo nophilisa impilo weVangeli. Noma kubalulekile ukuthi sikhulume ngokuqinile ngokumelene nobubi obusongelayo, kufanele silungise umbono wokuthi ubuKhatholika bumane nje “buyiqoqo lemikhawulo”. —Ikheli Kubabhishobhi Base-Ireland; IVictoria City, Okthoba 29, 2006
Yize singeke sikwazi ukuvimbela abanye ekusahluleleni (kuyohlale kuneSanhedrini), kuvame ukuthi kube nenhlamvu yeqiniso, uma kungenjalo isisekelo seqiniso kulokhu kugxeka. Uma ngingubuso bukaKristu, buphi ubuso engibethula emndenini wami nasemhlabeni?
Kukhona amaKrestu izimpilo zawo ezibukeka njengeLente ngaphandle kwePhasika. Ngiyabona impela ukuthi injabulo ayikhonjiswa ngendlela efanayo ngaso sonke isikhathi empilweni, ikakhulukazi ngezikhathi zobunzima obukhulu. Injabulo iyashintsha futhi iyashintsha, kepha ihlala njalo, njengokukhanya okuncane okuza ngokuqiniseka kwethu kokuthi, lapho konke kushiwo futhi kwenziwa, sithandwa ngokungenamkhawulo. —I-POPE FRANCIS, U-Evangelii Gaudium "Injabulo Yevangeli", n. 6
Imizwa ejabulisayo ingasuswa ngenxa yezizathu eziningi ezimpilweni zethu. Kepha injabulo isithelo sikaMoya oNgcwele oweqa ngisho ukuhlupheka, ngoba injabulo eyiqiniso iyaqhubeka kusukela ekuhlanganeni noJesu Kristu, ukuhlangana lapho umphefumulo wazi khona ukuthi uxolelwe, wamukelwa, futhi uyathandwa. Kuyisipiliyoni esihle ukuhlangana noJesu!
Labo abamukela ukunikezwa kwakhe kwensindiso bakhululwa esonweni, osizini, ekungeneni ngaphakathi nasesizungu. NgoKristu injabulo ihlala izalwa kabusha. —Iyid. n. 1
Ingabe uke wahlangabezana nalokhu? Uma kungenjalo — njengoba sizwile eVangelini kuleli sonto eledlule: funa uzothola, cela uzokwamukela, ungqongqoze uvuleke umnyango. Njengomvangeli ezivinini zikaKristu iminyaka engaphezu kwengama-25 manje eSontweni LamaKatolika, ngingasho ukuthi labo abaye baba nalokhu kuhlangana kusekuncane kakhulu. Ngisho, ngaphansi kwama-10% "amaKatolika" empeleni aya eMiseni njalo eNtshonalanga Yezwe. Ungabe usasho lutho.
Kepha ngibe nalokhu kuhlangana noNkulunkulu nokwazi lokho uyathandwa namanje akwanele, okungenani, ukuze le njabulo ihlale. Njengoba uPapa Benedict asho,
… Inhloso yakhe kwakungekhona nje ukuqinisekisa umhlaba ngobuzwe bawo nokuba ngumlingani wawo, uwushiya ungashintshi ngokuphelele. —UPOPE BENEDICT XVI, Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany, Septhemba 25, 2011; chiesa.com
Kunalokho, njengoba uJesu esho eVangelini lanamuhla:
Yibani ngabaphelele, njengoba noYihlo osezulwini ephelele.
Ngokwezibalo, lokhu kuzwakala kufana ncamashi nendlela ekhathele yokugcina ngokuqinile “iqoqo lemikhawulo.” Kepha lokho kungenxa yokuthi sehlulekile ukuqonda ifayili le- Konke umsebenzi kaJesu. Kwakungagcini nje ngokusikhulula esonweni, kodwa nokusibeka endleleni efanele; hhayi ukusikhulula kuphela, kepha buyisela kithi ukuthi singobani ngempela.
Ngenkathi uNkulunkulu edala umuntu, kwakungekhona ngenxa yosizi, ukukhandleka, nosizi kepha kwakungokwenjabulo. Futhi leyo njabulo yatholakala ngqo eNtandweni Yakhe Engcwele, engithanda ukuyibiza ngokuthi "ukuhleleka kothando." Senziwe ngomfanekiso kaNkulunkulu — umfanekiso woThando uqobo — senziwa-ke ukuthanda. Futhi uthando lunokuhleleka, ukuhleleka okuhle okuthambile futhi okucwengisisiwe njengokuzungeza komhlaba uzungeze ilanga. I-degree eyodwa, futhi umhlaba ubuzogxila kosizi. Izinga elilodwa kude "nomjikelezo wothando", futhi izimpilo zethu zihlangabezana nosizi lokungahambelani, hhayi noNkulunkulu kuphela, kodwa nathi uqobo. Ngokuqondene nalokho, isono yilokhu: ukuletha disorder.
Ngakho-ke, lapho uJesu ethi, “Yibani ngabaphelele njengoba noBaba osezulwini ephelele,” usho ngempela, “Jabulani njengoba uBaba osezulwini ejabula!”
UJesu ufuna ngenkani, ngoba ufisa injabulo yethu yangempela. —UPOPE JOHN PAUL II, Umyalezo Wosuku Lwentsha Lomhlaba Wonke ngo-2005, eVatican City, Agasti 27, 2004, iZenit.org
Isizathu sokuthi amaKrestu amaningi angajabuli akusho ukuthi awakaze ahlangane neNkosi ngasikhathi sinye, kepha kungenxa yokuthi awazange aphikelele endleleni eholela ekuphileni: intando kaNkulunkulu evezwe emyalweni Wakhe wokuthanda uNkulunkulu nomakhelwane.
Uma nigcina imiyalo yami, niyakuhlala othandweni lwami… Nginitshele lokhu ukuba intokozo yami ibe kini, nokuthokoza kwenu kuphelele. (Johane 15: 10-11)
Akwanele ukwazi ukuthi uyathandwa; leso kuphela isinyathelo sokuqala sokubuyisa isithunzi sakho sangempela. Uyabona, ukwamukela kukababa indodana yolahleko bekuyisinyathelo sokuqala kuphela ekubuyiselweni kwakhe. Isinyathelo sesibili saqala lapho indodana ithola indlela yokubuyisa isithunzi sayo sangempela, noma ngabe yasiveza kabi:
Angisafanele ukubizwa ngokuthi ngiyindodana yakho; ungiphathe njengomunye wabaqashwa bakho. (Luka 15:19)
Kusekusebenzeleni uNkulunkulu nomakhelwane lapho kwembulwa khona indlela eya engcebweni yoMbuso. Kungokuthobela "ukuhleleka kothando" lapho-ke sigqokiswa ingubo yokulunga bese sithola indandatho yobudodana beqiniso nezimbadada ezintsha ukuhambisa injabulo yeVangeli lenjabulo emhlabeni wonke. Ngamagama:
Siyathanda ngoba yena wasithanda kuqala. (1 Johane 4:19)
Ngelinye ilanga, ehleli lapho ephethe ihabhu ngesandla, umphefumulo weNkosi uDavid waziphosa olwandle olungenamkhawulo lweNhlakanipho futhi wabona, uma kungafushane nje, injabulo enkulu eza kulabo abahamba ngesithunzi samadodana namadodakazi kaNkulunkulu weqiniso. Leyo, ngubani hamba endleleni yentando kaNkulunkulu. Nansi-ke ingxenye yamaHubo 119, ethi “Ihubo likaDavide leNtando Yaphezulu.” Ngithandazela ukuthi ungayifundi nje kuphela, kodwa uqale ngayo “Ngayo yonke inhliziyo yakho, nangawo wonke umphefumulo wakho, nangayo yonke ingqondo yakho” [1]I-Matt 22: 37 ukuze intokozo kaJesu ibe kini, nenjabulo yenu iphelele.
