UKrestu eGetsemane, nguMichael D. O'Brien
Abantwana bakwa-Israyeli benza okubi emehlweni kaJehova; uJehova wabanikela esandleni sakwaMidiyani iminyaka eyisikhombisa. (AbaHluleli 6: 1)
LOKHU ukubhala kuhlola inguquko phakathi kwengxenye yokuqala neyesibili yokulingwa kweminyaka eyisikhombisa.
Besilokhu silandela uJesu nge-Passion Yakhe, okuyisibonelo seSonto Elikhulu nelizayo Lokulingwa Okukhulu. Ngaphezu kwalokho, lolu chungechunge luqondanisa iPassion yakhe neNcwadi yeSambulo, okukulo, elinye lamazinga ayo amaningi okufanekisa IMisa Ephakeme ukunikelwa ezulwini: ukumelwa Kokukhathazeka KukaKristu njengakho kokubili umhlatshelo futhi ukunqoba.
UJesu ungena eJerusalema, eshumayela ngesibindi, ehlanza ithempeli, futhi kubonakala sengathi uzuza imiphefumulo eminingi. Kodwa ngasikhathi sinye, kukhona abaprofethi bamanga phakathi kwabo, abadida ubuyena ezingqondweni zabaningi, bethi uJesu ungumprofethi nje, futhi uceba ukubhujiswa Kwakhe. Ngokwalokho engingakusho, kunjalo izinsuku ezintathu nohhafu kusukela ngesikhathi sokungena kukaKristu enqoba eJerusalema kuze kube yiPhasika.
Bese uJesu ungena ekamelweni eliphezulu.
ISONDLO LOKUGCINA
Ngikholwa ukuthi omunye womusa omkhulu ozozalwa ngokuKhanya nangeSibonakaliso Esikhulu, impela uMfazi ogqoke ilanga, ubunye phakathi kwabathembekile-amaKatolika, amaProthestani, nama-Orthodox (bheka Umshado Ozayo). Le nsali izozihlanganisa ihlanganise uMthendeleko oNgcwele, ikhuthazwe futhi ikhanyiselwe iSibonakaliso Esikhulu kanye nezimangaliso ezihambisana noMthendeleko. Kuzoba nentshiseko, intshiseko, namandla ageleza evela kulawa maKristu njengasezinsukwini zePhentekoste. Yikho kanye lokhu kukhonzwa nobunye kukaJesu okukhipha ulaka lweSilo.
Khona-ke udrako wathukuthelela owesifazane futhi wahamba wayokulwa nabaseleyo benzalo yakhe, labo abagcina imiyalo kaNkulunkulu futhi abafakaza ngoJesu. (IsAm 12:17)
Insali ethembekile iyahlangana “esidlweni sayo sokugcina” ngaphambi kwalesi Shushiso Esikhulu. Ngemuva kokuvulwa koPhawu lwesiKhombisa, uSt. John uqopha ingxenye yale Nkonzo eseMazulwini
Enye ingelosi yafika yema e-altare, iphethe umcengezi wegolide. Wanikwa impepho eningi ukuba ayinikele, kanye nemikhuleko yabo bonke abangcwele, ealtare legolide elaliphambi kwesihlalo sobukhosi. Umusi wempepho kanye nemithandazo yabangcwele kwenyuka phambi kwengilosi phambi koNkulunkulu. (IsAm 8: 3-4)
Kuzwakala njenge-Offertory-the ukunikela ngezipho. Yinsali, abangcwele, abazinikela ngokuphelele kuNkulunkulu, ngisho nasekufeni. Ingelosi inikela "ngemikhuleko yoMthendeleko" yabangcwele abazibeka ealtare laseZulwini ukuze "qedela okushodayo ezinhluphekweni zikaKristu ngenxa yomzimba wakhe”(Kol 1:24). Lo mnikelo, noma ungeke uguqule uMphikukristu, ungaguqula abanye balabo abaqhuba ushushiso.
Uma igama lingaguqukanga, kuzoba yigazi eliguqukayo. - UPAPA JOHN PAUL II, ovela enkondlweni, I-Stanislaw
ISonto lizophinda amazwi kaJesu owasho eSidlweni Sakhe Sokugcina,
Ngeke ngiphinde ngiphuze isithelo somvini kuze kube usuku lapho ngiyiphuza khona kabusha embusweni kaNkulunkulu. (UMarku 14:25)
Futhi mhlawumbe insali ethembekile izophuza leli wayini elisha ku- yesikhashana umbuso ngesikhathi seNkathi Yokuthula.
INSIMU YASEGETHSEMANE
INsimu yaseGetsemane yisikhathi lapho iSonto lizokuqonda ngokugcwele ukuthi, ngaphandle kwemizamo yalo emikhulu, umgwaqo oholela ezulwini mncane futhi bambalwa labo abawuthathayo:
Ngoba anisibo abezwe, futhi nginikhethile ezweni, izwe linizonda. Khumbulani izwi engalikhuluma kini, ngithi: 'Akukho sigqila esikhulu kunenkosi yaso.' Uma bengizingele mina, nani bayakunizingela. (Johane 15: 19-20)
Kuzomcacela ukuthi umhlaba usuzomjikela en masse. Kodwa uKristu ngeke amshiye uMlobokazi Wakhe! Sizonikezwa induduzo yokuba khona komunye nomunye kanye nemikhuleko, isikhuthazo sokubona ubufakazi bokuzidela babanye, ukukhulekelwa kwabaNgcwele, usizo lweZingelosi, uMama Obusisiwe, kanye neRosari elingcwele; futhi ukukhuthazwa kweSibonakaliso Esikhulu esisele futhi esingenakucekelwa phansi, ukuthululwa kukaMoya, futhi-ke, uMthendeleko oNgcwele, noma kuphi lapho kungashiwo khona iMisa. Abaphostoli balezi zinsuku bazoba namandla, noma kunalokho, ngokumangalisayo amandla. Ngikholwa ukuthi sizonikezwa intokozo yangaphakathi njengabafel 'ukholo abasuka eSt. Lezi zimfanelo zonke zifanekiselwa engelosini abeza kuJesu ensimini:
Kwabonakala kuye ingelosi evela ezulwini. (Luka 22:43)
Kungaleso sikhathi-ke lapho “uJudas” ezokhaphela iSonto.
UKUVUKA KUKAJUDAS
UJuda uyisifanekiselo somphikukristu. Ngaphandle kokubiza uJudas ngokuthi “udeveli,” uJesu ubiza umkhapheli wakhe ngesiqu esifanayo nesisetshenziswa nguSt. Paul ekuchazeni uMphikukristu
Ngibagadile, futhi akekho noyedwa kubo olahlekile ngaphandle indodana yokubhujiswa, ukuze kugcwaliseke umbhalo. (Johane 17:12; bheka 2 Thes 2: 3)
Njengoba ngibhala Ingxenye I, Ukulingwa Kweminyaka Eyisikhombisa noma "Isonto likaDaniel" liqala ngesivumelwano sokuthula phakathi koMphikukristu kanye "nabaningi" ngesikhathi esithile esiseduze ne-Illumination. Ezinye izazi zisikisela ukuthi isivumelwano sokuthula no-Israyeli, noma ngabe umbhalo wezikhathi zeTestamente Elisha ungaphakamisa nje izizwe eziningi.
Phakathi neminyaka emithathu nohhafu yokuQulwa kwecala, amacebo omphikukristu ekuqaleni azobonakala enokuthula kuzo zonke izinkolo nabantu ukuze akhohlise imiphefumulo emikhulu, ikakhulukazi AmaKrestu. Lesi yisifufula senkohliso uSathane asiphonsa kwi-Woman-Church:
Inyoka, nokho, ikhiphe isifufula samanzi emlonyeni wayo ngemuva kokuthi lo wesifazane amkhukhulise ngalo msinga. (IsAm 12:15)
Le nkohliso yamanje nezayo kube yisexwayiso esiphindaphindwayo kuyo yonke imibhalo yami.
Ngoba ngisho noMphikukristu, lapho eqala ukuza, ngeke angene eSontweni ngoba usongela. —USt. UCyprian waseCarthage, uBaba weSonto (wafa ngo-258 AD), Ngokumelene Nabahlubuki, Incwadi 54, n. 19
Ukukhuluma kwakhe bekubushelelezi kunebhotela, kepha impi isenhliziyweni yakhe; amazwi akhe ayethambile ukwedlula uwoyela, nokho ayedonswa ngezinhlamvu ... wasephula isivumelwano sakhe. (IHubo 55:21, 20)
Ukuthi umphikukristu uzoba ovelele kangakanani eminyakeni emithathu nohhafu yokuqala, asazi. Mhlawumbe ukuba khona kwakhe kuzokwaziwa, kepha ngemuva ngemuva njengoba noJudas ahlala ngemuva—kuze wakhaphela uKrestu. Ngempela, ngokusho kukaDaniel, Umphik'ukristu ngokuzumayo uya phambili futhi wephula isivumelwano sakhe maphakathi "neviki."
UJudasi weza masinyane waya kuJesu wathi: “Rabi.” Futhi wamanga. Ngaleso sikhathi bambamba izandla bambopha… futhi [abafundi] bamshiya babaleka. (Marku 14:41)
UDaniel udweba isithombe ngalo Judasi owandisa amandla akhe kancane kancane emhlabeni wonke aze afune ukubuswa umhlaba wonke. Uphuma “ezimpondweni eziyishumi” noma “emakhosini” avele kuDrako — iNew World Order.
Kolunye lwazo kwaphuma uphondo oluncane olwalulokhu lukhula lubheke eningizimu, empumalanga, nasezweni elikhazimulayo. Amandla ayo afinyelela embuthweni wezulu, yaze yaphosa emhlabeni ezinye zezinkanyezi nezinye zezinkanyezi yazinyathela (cf IsAm 12: 4). Yaziqhayisa ngisho nangomholi wempi, lapho yayisusa khona umhlatshelo wansuku zonke, futhi yayilahla ingcwele yayo, kanye nomsingathi, ngenkathi isono sithatha indawo yomhlatshelo wansuku zonke. Iphonse iqiniso phansi, futhi ibiphumelela emsebenzini wayo. (Dan 8: 9-12)
Impela, sizobona umvuthwandaba walokho esibhekene nakho manje: lokho okuyiqiniso kuzobizwa ngokuthi kungamanga, futhi lokho okungamanga kuzothiwa kuyiqiniso. Kanye nokuqedwa koMthendeleko, yilokhu kufihlwa kweQiniso nakho okuyingxenye ye- Ukusithwa kweNdodana.
UPilatu wathi kuye: “Liyini iqiniso?” (Johane 18:38)
UKUHLAKAZA KAKHULU
Lo Judas uzoshintsha ngokungazelelwe iziqu zakhe zisuke ekwenzeni ukuthula ziye Ukushushiswa.
Isilo sasinikwa umlomo washo ukuzikhukhumeza nokuhlambalaza, sanikwa igunya lokusebenza izinyanga ezingamashumi amane nambili. (IsAm 13: 5)
Kungaleso sikhathi-ke lapho umzuzu obuhlungu kakhulu uzofika eSontweni. Abaningi abayimfihlakalo nabobaba beSonto bakhuluma ngesikhathi lapho, njengoJesu eNsimini yaseGetsemane, kuzoshaywa umalusi weSonto, uBaba oNgcwele. Mhlawumbe lokhu kumaphakathi "kwecala lokugcina elizonyakazisa ukholo lwamakholwa amaningi" (cf. Catechism weSonto LamaKatolika 675) lapho izwi eliqondisayo leSonto emhlabeni, uPapa, lithuliswa okwesikhashana.
UJesu wathi kubo, “Kulobu busuku nonke ukholo lwenu luzonyakaziswa, ngoba kulotshiwe ukuthi: 'Ngizoshaya umalusi, izimvu zomhlambi zihlakazeke.'” (Math 26:31)
Ngabona omunye wabalandela bami ebalekela izidumbu zabafowabo. Uyophephela ezicashile ndawo ndawo; futhi ngemuva kokuthatha umhlalaphansi isikhashana [ekudingisweni], uzofa kabuhlungu. —UPOPI PIUS X (1835-1914), Umphik'ukristu Nezikhathi Zokuphela, UFr. UJoseph Iannuzzi, P. 30
Ushushiso luzoqhuma ngesimo salo esibi kakhulu. Umhlambi uhlakazekile, njengamalahle avuthayo aphonswa emhlabeni.
Ingelosi yabe isithatha umcengezi wempepho, yasigcwalisa ngamalahle avuthayo avela e-altare, yasiphonsa emhlabeni. Kwaba khona ukuduma kwezulu, ukuduma, imibani, nokuzamazama komhlaba. Izingelosi eziyisikhombisa ezaziphethe amacilongo ayisikhombisa zazilungiselela ukubashaya. (IsAm 8: 5)
Iso leSiphepho lizobe selidlulile, futhi iSiphepho Esikhulu sizoqala kabusha inkambo yaso yokugcina ngokuduma kwezobulungiswa kuzwakala kuyo yonke indawo.
Ngemuva kwalokho bazokunikela ekushushisweni, futhi bazokubulala. Niyakuzondwa yizizwe zonke ngenxa yegama lami. (Math 24: 9)
UKUKHUTHAZWA KWEBANDLA
UNkulunkulu uzovumela ububi obukhulu obumelene neBandla: Izihlubuki nabashiqela bazofika ngokuzumayo nangokungalindelekile; bazongena eSontweni ngenkathi ababhishobhi, abefundisi nabapristi belele. Bazongena e-Italy bachithe iRoma incithakalo; bazoshisa amasonto babhubhise konke. -I-Bartholome Holzhauser evumelekile (1613-1658 AD), I-Apocalypsin, I-1850; Isiprofetho samaKatolika
Linikelwe kwabeZizwe, abazonyathela umuzi ongcwele izinyanga ezingamashumi amane nambili. (IsAm 11: 2)
IMisa lizoqedwa…
… Isigamu sesonto yena [Umphikukristu] uyobangela ukuba umhlatshelo nomnikelo kuphele. (Dan 9:27)
… Nezinengiso zizongena ezingcweleni zakhe…
Ngabona amaProthestani akhanyisiwe, kwakhiwa amacebo okuxuba izivumo zokholo, ukucindezelwa kwegunya likapapa… angibonanga uPapa, kodwa umbhishobhi uguqe phambi kwe-altare eliphakeme. Kulo mbono ngabona ibandla lihlaselwa ngamabhomu ngezinye izitsha… Lalisongelwa nxazonke… Bakha isonto elikhulu, eliwubukhazikhazi elalizokwamukela zonke izivumo zokholo ngamalungelo alinganayo… Lalinjalo-ke ibandla elisha… —Ubusisiwe u-Anne Catherine Emmerich (1774-1824 AD), Impilo Nezambulo zika-Anne Catherine Emmerich, Ngo-Ephreli 12, 1820
Yize kunjalo, uNkulunkulu uzobe eseduze nabantu baKhe njengoba iminyaka emithathu nohhafu yokuQulwa kwecala iqala ukuvela:
Uyoqapha izinyathelo zabantu bakhe abathembekile, kodwa ababi bayobhubha ebumnyameni. (1 Sam 2: 9)
Okomzuzu ocacile we ukunqoba ngoba iSonto nalo selifikile, kanye ne ihora lobulungiswa okomhlaba. Futhi-ke, isixwayiso:
… Woe kulowo muntu iNdodana yomuntu ekhashelwa ngaye. Bekungaba ngcono kulowo muntu ukuba ubengakaze azalwe. (Math 26:24)
Khuluma nomhlaba ngomusa Wami… Kuyisibonakaliso sezikhathi zokuphela. Ngemuva kwalo kuzofika uSuku Lwezobulungiswa. Ngenkathi isikhathi sisekhona, mabavumele usizo ngomthombo womusa Wami. -Isihe SikaNkulunkulu Somphefumlo Wami, Idayari kaSt Faustina, 848
Umphikukristu akulona igama lokugcina. UJESU KRISTU uyiZwi elichazayo. Uzofika ukubuyisa zonke izinto…
Kungumsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ukuletha leli hora elijabulisayo nokwenza laziwe kubo bonke abantu ... Uma lifika, kuzoba yihora elihloniphekile, elikhulu futhi elinemiphumela hhayi kuphela ekubuyiselweni koMbuso kaKristu, kepha ukuthula ... komhlaba. —UPope Pius XI, Ubi Arcani dei Consilioi “Ekuthuleni KukaKristu eMbusweni wakhe”
