Imibhalo yenkolo lapha
I sivame ukuzwa amaKatolika namaProthestani ethi ukungafani kwethu akunandaba; ukuthi siyakholelwa kuJesu Kristu, futhi yilokho kuphela okubalulekile. Impela, kulesi sitatimende kufanele sazi ukuthi umhlaba wangempela wobunye, [1]qhathanisa I-Ecumenism eyiqiniso okuyikho impela ukuvuma nokuzibophezela kuJesu Kristu njengeNkosi. Njengoba uSt. John esho:
Lowo ovuma ukuthi uJesu uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu, uNkulunkulu uhlala kuye, naye uhlala kuye uNkulunkulu, nohlala othandweni uhlala kuNkulunkulu, noNkulunkulu ukuye. (Ukufunda kokuqala)
Kepha kufanele futhi sibuze ngokushesha ukuthi kusho ukuthini “ukukholwa kuJesu Kristu”? UJames James wayecacile ukuthi ukukholwa kuKristu ngaphandle "kwemisebenzi" kwakuwukukholwa okufile. [2]isib. Jakobe 2:17 Kepha lokho kuphakamisa omunye umbuzo: yimiphi “imisebenzi” engakaNkulunkulu futhi engeyona? Ingabe ukunikezela ngamakhondomu emazweni omhlaba wesithathu kungumsebenzi wesihe? Ingabe ukusiza intombazane esencane ukuba ikhiphe isisu kungumsebenzi kaNkulunkulu? Ngabe ukushada amadoda amabili akhanganayo kungumsebenzi wothando?
Iqiniso liwukuthi, baningi ngokwengeziwe “amaKristu” osukwini lwethu abangaphendula “yebo” kulokhu okungenhla. Futhi nokho, ngokwemfundiso yokuziphatha yeSonto LamaKatolika, lezi zenzo zazizothathwa njengezono ezinkulu. Ngaphezu kwalokho, kulezo zenzo ezakha "isono esibulalayo", imiBhalo icacile ukuthi "labo abenza izinto ezinjalo ngeke balizuze ifa lombuso kaNkulunkulu." [3]isib. Gal 5:21 Ngempela, uJesu uyaxwayisa:
Akubona bonke abathi kimi, 'Nkosi, Nkosi,' abazongena embusweni wezulu, kodwa yilowo kuphela owenza intando kaBaba osezulwini. (Math. 7:21)
Kungabonakala ngaleso sikhathi iqiniso—iyini intando kaNkulunkulu nokuthi yini engeyona — ingumnyombo wensindiso yobuKristu, ixhumene kakhulu "nokukholwa kuKristu". Ngempela,
Insindiso itholakala eqinisweni. -Catechism weSonto LamaKatolika,n. 851
Noma njengoba kusho uSt. John Paul II,
Ukuxhumana okusondele kwenziwa phakathi kokuphila okuphakade nokulalela imiyalo kaNkulunkulu: Imiyalo kaNkulunkulu ikhombisa umuntu indlela yokuphila futhi iholela kuyo. —UYINGCWELE UJOHANE PAUL II, I-Veritatis Splendor,n. 12
UKUHLUPHEKA KUKAShukela
Ngakho-ke, sesifikile ehoreni lapho, njengoba uJohn Paul II ephindaphinda, isono esikhulu kunazo zonke emhlabeni namuhla ukulahleka komuzwa wesono. Futhi, uhlobo olungekhohlisayo nolukhohlisa kakhulu lokungabi namthetho akuzona izigelekeqe ezihamba emigwaqweni, kodwa amajaji aguqula umthetho wemvelo, abefundisi abagwema izingqinamba zokuziphatha epulpiti, kanye namaKrestu abhekela iso ekuziphatheni okubi ukuze “kugcinwe ukuthula. ”Futhi ubekezelele. Ngakho-ke, kungaba ngokushisekela ukwahlulela noma ngokuthula, ukungabi namthetho kusakazeka emhlabeni wonke njengomphunga ojiyile, omnyama. Konke lokhu kungenzeka uma isintu, futhi ngisho nabakhethiweyo, angaqiniseka ukuthi ayikho ngempela into efana nemithetho yokuziphatha — leyo, empeleni, okuyisisekelo sobuKristu.
Ngempela, ukukhohlisa Okukhulu esikhathini sethu akusikho ukuqeda ubuhle, kepha kukuchaza kabusha ukuze okubi kubhekwe njengokulungile kwangempela. Biza isisu ngokuthi "ilungelo"; ubulili obufanayo-umshado "nje"; "isihe" se-euthanasia; ukuzibulala "unesibindi"; izithombe zobulili ezingcolile "ubuciko"; nobufebe “uthando” Ngale ndlela, ukuhleleka kokuziphatha akuqediwe, kepha kumane kuguqulwe kubhekiswe phansi. Empeleni, kwenzakalani ngokomzimba khona manje emhlabeni — ukuguqulwa kwezigxobo okunjengokuthi inyakatho yejiyometri iya eningizimu, futhi ngendlela efanayo—Kwenzeka ngokomoya.
Imikhakha emikhulu yomphakathi ididekile ngokuthi yini elungile nengalungile, futhi isemseni walabo abanamandla "okudala" umbono futhi bawuphoqelele kwabanye. —I-POPE JOHN PAUL II, eCherry Creek State Park Homily, eDenver, eColorado, ngo-1993
Uma iCatechism ifundisa ukuthi “iSonto kumele lidlule ecaleni lokugcina elizonyakazisa ukholo lwamakholwa amaningi”, [4]isib. CCC, n. 675 nokuthi kufanele "alandele iNkosi yakhe ekufeni nasekuvukeni kwakhe" [5]isib. CCC, n. 677 bese kuqulwa icala, eselivele seliqalile, ukuletha lokho uSr. Lucia waseFatima axwayisa ukuthi kwakuza “ukuphazamiseka kobuholi” —inkungu yokudideka, ukungaqiniseki, nokungaqondakali okholweni. Futhi kwaba njalo ngaphambi Passion kaJesu. “Liyini iqiniso?” Kubuza uPilatu? [6]isib. Johane 18:38 Ngokunjalo nanamuhla, umhlaba wethu ngokunganaki uphonsa ngeqiniso ngokungathi elethu ukuchaza, ukubumba nokwakha kabusha. “Liyini iqiniso?” abahluleli bethu beNkantolo Ephakeme bathi, njengoba begcwalisa amazwi kaPapa Benedict oxwayise ngokukhula…
… Umbuso wobushiqela wobumbano olungabheki lutho njengolucacile, futhi olushiya njengesilinganiso sokugcina kuphela komuntu nezifiso zakhe. Ukuba nokholo olucacile, ngokwesivumelwano seSonto, kuvame ukubizwa ngokuthi yi-basicism. Kodwa-ke, ukukholelwa ezintweni ezithile, okungukuthi, ukuzivumela uphonswe futhi 'ukhukhulwe yiyo yonke imimoya yemfundiso', kubonakala kuwukuphela kwesimo sengqondo esamukelekayo ezindinganisweni zanamuhla. —UKhadinali Ratzinger (uPapa BENEDICT XVI) ngaphambi komhlangano u-Homily, ngo-Ephreli 18, 2005
ISEXWAYISO
Lapho ngibhala Abesilisa BamaMere, kwaba nomoya wesibindi oweza phezu kwami. Angihlosile neze ukuba “ngunqobayo” ekugomeleni iqiniso lokuthi iSonto LamaKatolika lilodwa liqukethe “ukugcwala kweqiniso” ngenxa yentando kaKristu namandla kaMoya oNgcwele. Kunalokho, iyisixwayiso — i okuphuthumayo isexwayiso kubo bobabili amaKhatholika nabangewona amaKhatholika ngokufanayo, ukuthi ukukhohlisa Okukhulu ezikhathini zethu sekuzothatha ukuphenduka okusheshayo nokucacayo kube mnyama okuzoshanela izixuku kude. Okungukuthi, izixuku ezi…
… Abalamukelanga uthando lweqiniso ukuze basindiswe. Ngakho-ke, uNkulunkulu ubathumela amandla akhohlisayo ukuze bakholwe ngamanga, ukuze bonke abangakholwanga eqinisweni kepha bavume ukwenza okubi bagwetshwe. (2 Thes. 2: 9-12)
Futhi-ke, ake ngiphinde futhi lokho uSt Paul asho imisho emibili kamuva njengekhambi lomphikukristu:
Ngakho-ke, bazalwane, yimani niqinile futhi nibambelele emasikweni enanifundiswa wona, kungaba ngamazwi ashiwo ngomlomo noma ngencwadi yethu. (2 Thes. 2:15)
Christian, ulalele okushiwo nguMphostoli? Ungama kanjani uqinile ngaphandle kokuthi wazi ukuthi ayini lawo “masiko”? Ungama kanjani uqinile ngaphandle kokuthi ucinge lokho okudlulisiwe ngomlomo nangokubhala? Umuntu angawathathaphi la maqiniso anenhloso?
Impendulo, futhi, iSonto LamaKatolika. Ah! Kepha nansi ingxenye yesivivinyo esizonyakazisa ukholo lwamakholwa njengoba no-Passion kaKristu alunyakazisa ukholo lwabalandeli Bakhe. ISonto, nalo, lizovela njengehlazo, [7]qhathanisa I-Scandal uphawu lokuphikisana ngenxa yamanxeba opha ezonweni zakhe, njengoba nje umzimba kaKristu olimele nowagaziwe, owagwazwa ngenxa yezono zethu, wawuyihlazo kubalandeli Bakhe. Umbuzo uthi sizosibalekela yini iSiphambano, noma sime ngaphansi kwaso? Ngabe sizogxumela umkhumbi ku-raft of individualism, noma sidabule iSiphepho phezu kweBarque kaPeter eshaywayo, uKristu uqobo ayethula ngeGreat Commission? [8]isib. UMathewu 28: 18-20
Manje yihora lokulingwa kweSonto, ukuvivinywa nokuhlungwa kokhula kukolweni, izimvu ezimbuzini.
UKUBUYELA ESIKHUNGO
Uma uJesu eqhathanisa ukulalela amazwi Akhe futhi ewenza njengalowo owakha indlu yakhe phezu kwedwala, khona-ke mfowethu nodadewethu othandekayo, yenza konke ongakwenza ukuze uthembeke zonke izwi likaKristu. Buyela enkabeni yeqiniso. Buyela ku konke ukuthi uJesu ushiye iSonto, “kuzo zonke izibusiso zikamoya ezulwini” [9]cf. Efe 1:3 senzelwe ukwakha, ukukhuthaza namandla. Lokho okungukuthi, izimfundiso eziqinisekile zabaphostoli boKholo, njengoba zibekiwe kwiKhathekizima; amandla kaMoya oNgcwele, kufaka phakathi izilimi, ukuphilisa, nokuprofetha; amaSakramente, ikakhulukazi Ukuvuma kanye noMthendeleko; inhlonipho efanele kanye nokuvezwa komthandazo weSonto owenziwa emhlabeni wonke, i-Liturgy; kanye noMyalo Omkhulu wokuthanda uNkulunkulu nomakhelwane wakho.
ISonto, ezindaweni eziningi, selisukile enkabeni yalo, futhi isithelo salokhu siwukwehlukana. Futhi yeka ukungcola okuhlukene phakathi! Kukhona lawo maKhatholika akhonza abampofu, kepha angakunaki ukondla ukudla okungokomoya koKholo. KunamaKhatholika abambelela ngezinhlobo zakudala zeLiturgy, ebe enqaba iziphiwo zikaMoya oNgcwele. [10]qhathanisa Okuhehayo? Ingxenye IV Kukhona amaKrestu "akhangayo" enqaba ifa elicebile lokuzinikela kwethu ngokwenkolo nangasese. Kukhona izazi zemfundiso yenkolo ezifundisa iZwi likaNkulunkulu kodwa zenqabe uMama owamthwala; abathetheleli abavikela iZwi kodwa badelele amazwi esiprofetho nalokho okuthiwa "isambulo sangasese." Kukhona labo abeza eMiseni njalo ngeSonto, kodwa bakhethe izimfundiso zokuziphatha abazoziphila phakathi koMsombuluko noMgqibelo.
Lokhu ngeke kusaba sesikhathini esizayo! Lokho okwakhiwe esihlabathini — phezu subjective izihlabathi — zizoshayeka phansi kulelicala elizayo, bese kuthi uMlobokazi ohlanziwe aqhamuke "womqondo ofanayo, onothando olufanayo, ohlangene enhliziyweni, ocabanga into eyodwa." [11]isib. Fil 2:2 Kuzoba khona, “yinye iNkosi, yinye inkolo, munye umbhapathizo; uNkulunkulu munye noYise wabo bonke. ” [12]cf. Efe 4:5 ISonto liphihlizekile, lalimala, lahlukana futhi lahlakazeka lizophinda futhi ivangeli: izofakaza ezizweni zonke; uzoba ipentekoste: siphila njengakwi "Pentekoste entsha"; uzoba Katolika: jikelele ngempela; uzoba isakramente: uphila kuMthendeleko; uzoba umphostoli: uthembekile ezimfundisweni zeSiko Elingcwele; futhi uzoba ongcwele: siphila ngeNtando Yaphezulu, “eyokwenziwa emhlabeni njengasezulwini.”
Uma uJesu esho “Bazokwazi ukuthi ningabafundi bami ngothando lwenu,” lapho-ke uMalusi Omuhle uzosiholela esikhungweni seqiniso, okuyisikhungo se ubunye, nomthombo omuhle wothando lweqiniso. Kepha okokuqala, uzosihola adlule esiGodini seSithunzi Sokufa ukuze ahlanze iSonto Lakhe kulobu bubi ukuhlukana.
USathane angathatha izikhali zenkohliso ezethusayo kakhulu — angazifihla — angazama ukusikhohlisa ezintweni ezincane, futhi ukuze asuse iSonto, hhayi konke ngasikhathi sinye, kodwa kancane kancane esikhundleni salo sangempela. Ngikholwa ukuthi wenze lukhulu ngale ndlela emakhulwini ambalwa edlule… Kuyinqubomgomo yakhe ukusihlukanisa nokusihlukanisa, ukusisusa kancane kancane edwaleni lethu lamandla. Futhi uma kuzoba noshushiso, mhlawumbe kuzoba khona ngaleso sikhathi; khona-ke, mhlawumbe, lapho sonke sonke kuzo zonke izingxenye zeLobukholwa sihlukene phakathi, futhi sinciphe kangaka, sigcwele uqhekeko, sisondele kakhulu ekuhlubukeni. Lapho sesiziphonse emhlabeni futhi sincike ekuvikelekeni kuwo, futhi sayeka ukuzimela kwethu namandla ethu, khona-ke [Umphik'ukristu] uzosidabukela ngokufutheka kuze kufike lapho uNkulunkulu emvumela khona. -Ubusisiwe uJohn Henry Newman, Intshumayelo IV: Ukushushiswa Komphik'ukristu
