UJesu… Uyamkhumbula?

 

UJESU... Uyamkhumbula na?

Ngiyabhuqa, kunjalo — kodwa okuncane kuphela. Ngoba kukangaki sizwa ababhishobhi bethu, abapristi, kanye nabantu abavamile esikhuluma nabo UJesu? Kukangaki sizwa igama lakhe? Kukangaki sikhunjuzwa ngenhloso yokuza kwaKhe, futhi ngaleyo ndlela, ukuthunywa kweBandla lonke, futhi ngalokho kudingeka kwethu siqu impendulo?

Ngiyaxolisa, kodwa okungenani lapha e-Western World — hhayi kakhulu njalo.  

Ngokwengelosi yeNkosi, ukuthunywa kukaKristu, futhi kanjalo nokwethu, kwafakwa egameni laKhe:

Uzakuzala indodana, uyiqambe igama lokuthi uJesu, ngoba nguye ozosindisa abantu bakhe ezonweni zabo. (UMathewu 1:21)

UJesu akezelanga ukuzosungula inhlangano ezomkhumbula ngezinkonzo eziwubukhazikhazi, amasonto ababhishobhi abakhulu, nangemikhuba emihle; ngemikhosi yokuzijabulisa nje, ubumnandi, nokuvuma ngamakhanda kwesimo esikhona. Cha, uJesu “wahlanganisa” “isonto” (igama lesiGreki elithi “ἐκκλησία” noma i-ecclesia lisho “ukuhlangana”) ukuze libe ithuluzi lokusindiswa nge ukushunyayelwa kweVangeli nokuphathwa kwe- amasakramente. Ubhapathizo ukusetshenziswa komhlaba wangempela kwamanzi aphuma ohlangothini lukaKristu; UMthendeleko nokuvuma kungukusetshenziswa komhlaba wangempela kweGazi likaKristu elihlanza isono. UbuKrestu, ngakho-ke ubuKhatholika, kumayelana nokusindisa abantu esonweni okuqeda ukuthula nobunye futhi kusihlukanise noNkulunkulu. Ukuthi sifuna ukumisa ababhishobhi abakhazimulayo, sifake izembatho zegolide, futhi sibeke phansi imabula kuyisibonakaliso sothando lwethu ngoNkulunkulu nokukhombisa iMfihlakalo, yebo; kepha azibalulekile futhi azidingekile emsebenzini wethu. 

IMisa lanikezwa thina ukuqhubekisela phambili amandla okusindisa nobukhona bomhlatshelo wakhe esiphambanweni wokusindiswa komhlaba — hhayi ukusenza sizizwe kahle ngathi ngokuthatha ihora masonto onke bese sishiya izinhlamvu ezimbalwa kupuleti leqoqo. Siza eMiseni, noma kufanele, ukuze sizwe uKristu ethi "yebo" kithi futhi (ngokwethulwa kabusha kwalolo thando esiphambanweni) ukuze nathi sikwazi ukuthi "yebo" kuYe. Yebo yini? Kusipho samahhala sempilo elaphakade ngo ukholo kuYe. Futhi-ke, "yebo" ekusakazeni "Izindaba Ezinhle" zalesi sipho emhlabeni. 

Yebo, iSonto alaziwa namuhla, ngokwengxenye, ngenxa yezono namahlazo asematheni. Kepha mhlawumbe ngaphezu kwakho konke ngoba akasashumayeli ngoJesu Kristu!

Akukho ukushumayela kweqiniso uma kungamenyezelwa igama, imfundiso, impilo, izithembiso, umbuso nemfihlakalo kaJesu waseNazaretha, iNdodana kaNkulunkulu. —I-POPE PAUL VI, Evangelii nuntiandi,n. 22; v Vatican.va 

Ngisho noPapa uFrancis, osengumfundisi wakhe osengene ezingxabanweni eziningi, washo ngokusobala:

… Isimemezelo sokuqala kufanele sizwakale siphindelela: “UJesu Kristu uyakuthanda; wanikela ngokuphila kwakhe ukukusindisa; futhi manje uhlala eceleni kwakho nsuku zonke ukukukhanyisela, ukuqinisa nokukhulula. ” —I-POPE FRANCIS, U-Evangelii Gaudium,n. 164

Kepha silahlekelwe yindaba. Sesiyiphulile indaba yothando! Ngabe siyazi nokuthi kungani iSonto likhona ??

[ISonto] likhona ukuze kushunyayelwe ivangeli… —I-POPE PAUL VI, Evangelii nuntiandi,n. 14

AmaKhatholika amaningi awazi nokuthi igama elithi “ukuvangela” lisho ukuthini. Futhi ababhishobhi, abakwenzayo, bavame ukwesaba ukuvumela labo ababizelwe ukushumayela ukuthi basebenzise izipho zabo. Ngakho-ke, iZwi likaNkulunkulu lihlala lifihliwe, likhinyinyiwe, uma lingangcwatshwa ngaphansi kwebhasikidi. Ukukhanya kukaKristu akusabonwa ngokusobala… futhi lokhu kuba nemiphumela emibi emhlabeni wonke. 

Ezinsukwini zethu, lapho ezindaweni ezinkulu zomhlaba ukholo lusengozini yokufa njengelangabi elingasenawo uphethiloli, okubaluleke kakhulu ukwenza uNkulunkulu abekhona kulo mhlaba nokukhombisa abesilisa nabesifazane indlela eya kuNkulunkulu. Hhayi noma yimuphi unkulunkulu, kodwa uNkulunkulu owakhuluma eSinayi; kuloyo Nkulunkulu ubuso bakhe esibubonayo othandweni obucindezela “kuze kube sekupheleni” (cf. Jn 13: 1) - kuJesu Kristu, wabethelwa esiphambanweni wavuka. Inkinga yangempela kulo mzuzu womlando wethu ukuthi uNkulunkulu uyanyamalala emkhathizwe womuntu, futhi, ngokufiphala kokukhanya okuvela kuNkulunkulu, isintu siphulukana nokuthwala kwaso, nemiphumela ebonakala ngokusobala eyonakalisayo. —I-POPE BENEDICT XVI, Incwadi Yobungcwele Bakhe uPapa Benedict XVI kubo Bonke Ababhishobhi Bomhlaba, Mashi 12, 2009; v Vatican.va

AmaKatolika amaningi namuhla athukuthele ngokudideka kwezimfundiso okusakazekayo; uthukuthele ngamahlazo okuhlukunyezwa nokufihlwa; bathukuthele ngokuthi uPapa, bazizwa, engawenzi umsebenzi wakhe. Kulungile, zonke lezi zinto zibalulekile, yebo. Kodwa ingabe sicasulwa yini ukuthi uJesu Kristu akashunyayelwa? Ingabe siphatheke kabi ukuthi imiphefumulo ayilizwa iVangeli? Ingabe kuyasicasula ukuthi abanye abahlangani noJesu ngathi nangathi? Ngamafuphi nje, ingabe uphatheke kabi ngokuthi uJesu akathandwa… noma ucasulwa ukuthi ukuphepha obukade unakho ebhokisini lobuKatolika elicocekile futhi eliqoqekile manje sekuzanyazanyiswa njengomkhiwane esihlahleni?

Ukuzamazama Okukhulu ulapha futhi uyeza. Ngoba sikhohliwe inhliziyo yomsebenzi wethu: ukwenza uJesu Kristu athandwe futhi aziwe, ngakho-ke, ukudonsela yonke indalo enhliziyweni kaZiqu-zintathu Ongcwele. Umsebenzi wethu ukuletha abanye ebudlelwaneni bangempela noJesu Kristu, iNkosi noMsindisi — ubudlelwano obuphilisayo, obukhululayo, futhi obuguqula sibe yindalo entsha. Yilokho okushiwo “ukuvangela okusha”. 

Njengoba wazi kahle ukuthi akuyona indaba yokudlulisa nje imfundiso ethile, kodwa umhlangano wobuqu nojulile noMsindisi.   —I-POPE JOHN PAUL II, Ukuthumela Imindeni, Neo-Catechumenal Way. 1991.

Kwesinye isikhathi ngisho namaKhatholika alahlekelwe noma angakaze abe nethuba lokuzwa uKristu uqobo: hhayi uKristu 'njengepharadayim' nje noma 'inani', kepha njengeNkosi ephilayo, 'indlela, neqiniso, nokuphila'. —UPOPE JOHN PAUL II, I-L'Osservatore Romano (Uhlelo lwesiNgisi lwe-Vatican Newspaper), Mashi 24, 1993, likhasi 3.

Ukuguqulwa kusho ukwamukela, ngesinqumo somuntu siqu, ubukhosi bukaKristu obusindisayo nokuba ngumfundi wakhe.  —ST. UJOHN PAUL II, Incwadi Encyclical: Injongo Yomhlengi (1990) i-46

Futhi uPapa Benedict uyanezela:

... Singaba ofakazi kuphela uma sazi uKristu kuqala, hhayi kuphela kwabanye - kusuka empilweni yethu, ekuhlanganyeleni kwethu noKristu. —UPOPE BENEDICT XVI, eVatican City, ngoJanuwari 20, 2010, Zenit

Kuze kube manje, "Ukunqoba Kwenhliziyo Engaphelele kaMariya" okwathenjiswa kuFatima, nokuyikho ukufezeka njengoba sikhuluma, ayikhulumi ngeNcasakazi uMariya, ngayinye se. Ukunqoba kumayelana nendima kaMariya ekwenzeni uJesu abe yisikhungo somhlaba futhi nasekuzaleni abakhe konke umzimba ongaqondakali (bheka iSamb. 12: 1-2). Ezambulweni ezivunyelwe ku-Elizabeth Kindelmann, uJesu uqobo uchaza ukuthi “Owesifazane” osencwadini yeSambulo, uMama wethu, uzosiza kanjani ukuletha umhlaba ovuselelwe.

INkosi uJesu ibe nengxoxo ejulile impela nami. Wangicela ukuthi ngiphuthumise imiyalezo ngiyiyise kumbhishobhi. (KwakunguMashi 27, 1963, futhi ngakwenza lokho.) Wakhuluma nami isikhathi eside mayelana nesikhathi somusa noMoya Wothando ofana ncamashi nePentekoste lokuqala, wagcwalisa umhlaba ngamandla awo. Lokho kuzoba isimangaliso esikhulu esidonsela ukunaka kwaso sonke isintu. Konke lokho kungukusetshenziswa kwe- umphumela womusa weLangabi Lothando Lwentombi Ezibusisiwe. Umhlaba umbozwe ubumnyama ngenxa yokuntuleka kokholo emphefumulweni wesintu ngakho-ke uzohlangabezana nokudangala okukhulu. Ukulandela lokho, abantu bazokholwa. Le nqubekela phambili, ngamandla okholo, izokwakha umhlaba omusha. NgeLangabi Lothando LweNtombi Ezibusisiwe, ukholo luyoba nezimpande emiphefumulweni, futhi ubuso bomhlaba buzovuselelwa, ngoba “akukaze kwenzeke okunje selokhu iZwi laba yinyama. ” Ukuvuselelwa komhlaba, yize kugcwele izinhlupheko, kuzokwenzeka ngamandla wokuncengela kweNtombi Ezibusisiwe. -Amalangabi Othando Kwenhliziyo KaMariya Ongafanelwe: IDayari Yokomoya (Kindle Edition, Loc. 2898-2899); yamukelwa ngo-2009 nguKhadinali Péter Erdö Cardinal, Primate noMbhishobhi Omkhulu. Qaphela: UPapa Francis wanikeza isibusiso sakhe sobuphostoli phezu kweLangabi Lothando lwe-Immaculate Heart of Mary Movement ngoJuni 19, 2013

Kepha nali iphuzu: kwenye indawo kumadayari ka-Elizabeth, uMama wethu uchaza ukuthi iLangabi Lothando livutha enhliziyweni yakhe “NguJesu Kristu uqobo.”^[1]Ilangabi Lothando, k. 38, okuvela kudayari ka-Elizabeth Kindelmann; 1962; Imprimatur UMbhishobhi Omkhulu uCharles Chaput Konke ngoJesu. Sikukhohliwe lokho. Kepha iZulu selizosikhumbuza ngendlela okungeke kube nalutho olufana nalolu “Kwenzeke selokhu uLizwi waba yinyama.” 

Ngakho-ke, impela, UJesu Ungumcimbi Omkhulu. Akukona ukuthi umhlaba uze uzoguqa phambi kweSonto LamaKatolika futhi uqabule indandatho kaPontiff ngenkathi sibuyisela i-lace ne-Latin. Kunalokho, 

… Ukuze ngegama likaJesu, wonke amadolo aguqe, awalabo abasezulwini nasemhlabeni nangaphansi komhlaba, futhi zonke izilimi zivume ukuthi uJesu Kristu uyiNkosi, kube yinkazimulo kaNkulunkulu uBaba. (Fil 2: 10-11)

Lapho lolo suku lufika — futhi luyeza — isintu ngokwemvelo sizobuyela kuyo yonke into uJesu abasinike yona ngokusebenzisa iSonto LamaKhatholika: iVangeli, amasakramente, naleso sisa senhliziyo ngaphandle kwawo konke kufile futhi kuyabanda. Ngaleso sikhathi, kulapho-ke lapho iSonto eliyoba yikhaya leqiniso lomhlaba: lapho lona uqobo limbozwe ukuthobeka, ukukhanya, nothando lweNdodana. 

"Bazolizwa izwi lami, kube-yisibaya esisodwa nomalusi munye." Kwangathi uNkulunkulu… maduze angagcwalisa isiprofetho sakhe sokuguqula lo mbono oduduzayo wekusasa ube yiqiniso lamanje… Kungumsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ukuletha lelihora elijabulisayo futhi ukwenze kwaziwa yibo bonke… Lapho lifika, kuzokwenzeka ukuthi kube yihora elinamandla, elikhulu elilodwa elinemiphumela hhayi kuphela lokubuyiselwa koMbuso kaKristu, kodwa ukumiswa kwe ... komhlaba. Sithandaza kakhulu, futhi sicela abanye ngokufanayo ukuba bathandazele lokhu kuphakanyiswa komphakathi okufiswa kakhulu. —I-POPE PIUS XI, Ubi Arcani dei Consilioi “Ekuthuleni KukaKristu eMbusweni wakhe”, Disemba 23, 1922

Hawu! lapho kuwo wonke amadolobhana nemizana umthetho weNkosi ugcinwa ngokwethembeka, lapho kukhonjiswa inhlonipho ngezinto ezingcwele, lapho amaSakramente ehanjelwa kaningi, futhi kugcwaliswa izimiso zempilo yobuKrestu, ngokuqinisekile ngeke sisaba khona isidingo sokuthi sisebenze kanzima ukuze bheka zonke izinto zibuyiselwe kuKristu… Bese kuthi-ke? Ekugcineni, kuzocaca kubo bonke ukuthi iSonto, njengalokhu lasungulwa nguKristu, kumele lithokozele inkululeko ephelele futhi lizimele kulo lonke igunya langaphandle… “Uyophula amakhanda ezitha zakhe,” ukuze bonke bazi “ukuthi uNkulunkulu uyinkosi yomhlaba wonke,” “ukuze abezizwe bazi ukuthi bangamadoda.” Konke lokhu, Bazalwane Abahloniphekile, Siyakukholelwa futhi sikulindele ngokukholwa okungenakunyakaziswa. —UPAPPI PIUS X, U-E Supremi, Encyclical "Ekubuyiselweni Kwazo Zonke Izinto", n. 14, 6-7
