Umdlandla weSonto

Uma igama lingaguquki,
kuyoba yigazi eliguqukayo.
—I-ST. UJOHN PAUL II, enkondlweni ethi “Stanislaw”

Abanye babafundi bami abavamile kungenzeka ukuthi baye baqaphela ukuthi ngibhale kancane ezinyangeni zamuva. Ingxenye yesizathu, njengoba wazi, ingoba silwela izimpilo zethu ngokumelene nezinjini zomoya zezimboni - impi esiqala ukuyenza. inqubekelaphambili ethile on.

Kodwa futhi ngiye ngazizwa ngidonseka ngokujulile ku-Pasion of Jesus, noma ngokuqondile, ku ukuthula Yothando Lwakhe. Kwafika isikhathi lapho Ezungezwe uqhekeko olukhulu, ukufutheka okukhulu, ukusolwa nokukhaphela okukhulu, kangangokuthi amazwi ayengasenakukhuluma noma abhoboze izinhliziyo ezilukhuni. IGazi Lakhe kuphela elalingathwala izwi Lakhe futhi liqedele umsebenzi Wakhe.

Abaningi bafakaza amanga ngaye, kepha ubufakazi babo abuhlangananga… Kepha wathula, akaphendulanga lutho. (Marku 14:56, 61)

Kanjalo, futhi, ngalesi sikhathi, awasekho amazwi avumelanayo eBandleni. Ukudideka kugcwele. Amazwi ayiqiniso ayashushiswa; ezingabazekayo ziyatuswa; isambulo sangasese sidelelekile; isiprofetho esingabazekayo siyakhuthazwa; uqhekeko ujatshuliswa obala; iqiniso lihlobene; futhi ubupapa bulahlekelwe igunya labo lokuziphatha ngokungaqhubeki nje kuphela imiyalezo engaqondakali kodwa ukugunyazwa okuqondile kwe-ajenda emnyama yomhlaba wonke.^[1]qhathanisa lapha or lapha; bona futhi UFrancis noMkhumbi Ophahlazekile

UbuKristu bangempela kuba kushonile njengoba amazwi kaJesu efinyelela ukugcwaliseka phambi kwamehlo ethu uqobo:

Nonke niyakunyakaziswa ukukholwa kwenu, ngokuba kulotshiwe ukuthi: ‘Ngiyakushaya umalusi, nezimvu ziyohlakazwa.' (Maka 14: 27)

Ngaphambi kokuza kwesibili kukaKristu iBandla kumele lidlule esivivinyweni sokugcina lokho kuzozamazamisa ukukholwa kwabaningi amakholwa... ISonto lizongena enkazimulweni yombuso kuphela ngaleli Phasika lokugcina, lapho lizolandela iNkosi yalo ekufeni nasekuvukeni kwalo. —Ikhathekizimu yeSonto LamaKatolika, 675, 677

Umdlandla weSonto

Umdlandla weBandla ubusenhliziyweni yeZwi Lamanje kusukela ekuqaleni kwalesi siprofetho. Kuyafana nokuthi “Isivunguvungu Esikhulu, ”Lokhu Ukuzamazama Okukhulu okukhulunywa ngayo kuKhathekhizimu.

In IGetsemane nangobusuku bokukhashelwa kukaKristu, sibona isibuko samaqembu asabekayo asanda kuvela eMzimbeni kaKristu: i-radical traditionalism ehosha inkemba futhi ngokuzibona elungile ulahla labo acatshangelwa ukuthi bamelene naye ( funda uJohane 18:10 ); ubugwala lokho kubalekela okumilayo uvukile Isixuku futhi ucasha ngokuthula ( cf. Math 26:56, Marku 14:50 ); ngokugcwele i-modernism ukuthi uyaphika futhi uyavumelana iqiniso ( cf. Marku 14:71 ); nokukhashelwa okusobala ngabalandela abaphostoli ngokwabo.

Namuhla iSonto lihlala noKristu ngenxa yolaka lukaPassion. Izono zamalungu akhe zibuyele kuye njengokushaywa ebusweni ... AbaPhostoli uqobo bajika umsila eNsimini Yeminqumo. Bamshiya uKristu ehoreni lakhe elinzima kakhulu… Yebo, kukhona abapristi abangathembekile, ababhishobhi, ngisho nokhadinali abahluleka ukugcina ubumsulwa. Kepha futhi, futhi nalokhu kubi kakhulu, bayehluleka ukubambelela eqinisweni lemfundiso! Baphazamisa amakholwa athembekile ngolimi lwabo oluyindida noluyindida. Bayaliphambanisa futhi balenze amanga iZwi likaNkulunkulu, bazimisele ukulisonta nokuligoba ukuze bathole ukwamukelwa yizwe. BangabaJuda Iskariyothe besikhathi sethu. —Ukhadinali Robert Sarah, I-Catholic Herald, Ngo-Ephreli 5th, i-2019

Lapha, angikwazi ukuzibamba ngaphandle kokuphinda amazwi abalulekile kaSt. John Henry Newman owabona kusengaphambili, ngokunemba okungaqondakali, ukuqala kwePasion of the Church:

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. Ngiyavuma 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. -Ubhalwe nguJohn Henry Newman, Intshumayelo IV: Ukushushiswa Komphik'ukristu

UmKrestu Onqunu

EVangelini likaMarku, kukhona umniningwane ongajwayelekile ekugcineni kwendaba yaseGetsemane:

Manje insizwa ethile yamlandela ingagqokile lutho ngaphandle kwendwangu yelineni emzimbeni wayo. Bambamba, kodwa yena washiya indwangu ngemuva wabaleka enqunu. (Maka 14: 51-52)

Ingikhumbuza "Isiprofetho eRoma” lokho mina noDkt. Ralph Martin esixoxe ngakho esikhathini esingeside esidlule:

Ngizokuholela ogwadule… Ngizokuphuca konke enithembele kukho manje, ukuze nincike Kimi nje. Isikhathi sobumnyama siyeza emhlabeni, kodwa isikhathi senkazimulo siyeza eBandleni Lami, isikhathi senkazimulo siyeza kubantu Bami. Ngizothululela phezu kwenu zonke izipho zoMoya Wami. Ngizokulungiselela ukulwa okungokomoya; Ngizokulungiselela isikhathi sobuvangeli umhlaba ongakaze usibone…. Futhi uma ningenalutho ngaphandle Kwami, niyoba nakho konke...

Yonke into esizungezile njengamanje isesimweni sokuwohloka - eyodwa, ecashile, kangangokuthi bambalwa kakhulu abangayibona.

Impucuko yehla kancane, kancane nje ngokwanele ukuze ucabange ukuthi kungenzeka kungenzeki ngempela. Futhi nje usheshe ngokwanele ukuze kungabi nesikhathi esincanyana sokuhamba. ' -I-Plague Journal, okuvela encwadini kaMichael D. O'Brien, k. 160

Kunzima ukukuchaza, kodwa uma ngingena esitolo noma endaweni yomphakathi kulezi zinsuku, kuba sengathi ngingene ephusheni… emhlabeni owawukhona, kodwa ongasekho. Angikaze ngizizwe ngingaziwa kulomhlaba njengoba ngenza manje.

Amehlo ami afiphele ngenxa yosizi, agugile ngenxa yazo zonke izitha zami. sukani kimi nina nonke abenza okubi. UJehova uzwile ukukhala kwami... (IHubo 6: 8-9)

Ngesizathu esithile ngicabanga ukuthi ukhathele. Ngiyazi ukuthi nami ngiyesaba futhi ngikhathele. Ngoba ubuso beNkosana Yobumnyama buyacaca futhi bucace kimi. Kubukeka sengathi akasenandaba nokuhlala "engaziwa kakhulu," "incognito," "wonke umuntu." Kubonakala sengathi ungene kwezakhe futhi uzibonakalisa kulo lonke iqiniso lakhe elibuhlungu. Bambalwa-ke abakholelwa ebukhoneni bakhe angabe esadinga ukuzifihla! - UCatherine Doherty kuThomas Merton, Umlilo Onobubele, Izincwadi zikaThomas Merton noCatherine de Hueck Doherty, k. 60, Mashi 17, 1962, Ave Maria Press (2009)

Ngempela, konke lokhu kuwukuhlubula uMlobokazi kaKristu—kodwa hhayi ukumyeka enqunu! Kunalokho, Umgomo Waphezulu wale Passion kanye Isilingo Sokugcina is Ukuvuswa KweSonto kanye nezingubo zoMlobokazi e ingubo entsha enhle okokunqoba I-Era Yokuthula. Uma uzizwa udangele, funda futhi Opapa kanye Nenkathi Yokuqala or Baba Ongcwele Othandekayo… Uyeza!

Isikhali esikhulu sesitha ukudikibala. Kwesinye isikhathi ngicabanga ukuthi ukudikibala kwethu kungenxa yokuthi siwehlisele amehlo ethu endizeni yesikhashana, sibheke emhlabeni nalabo abasizungezile ukuthi basinike lokho okungenziwa nguNkulunkulu kuphela. Yingakho abaNgcwele bakwazi ukweqa izilingo zabo baze bathola injabulo kuzo: ngoba babona ukuthi konke okwakudlula, kuhlanganise nokuhlupheka kwabo, kwakuyindlela yokuhlanzwa kwabo nokuphuthuma ebunyeni noNkulunkulu.

UJesu wathi, “Babusisiwe abahlanzekile enhliziyweni, ngokuba bayakubona uNkulunkulu.” Uma siholelwa ku ukuthula of Passion kaKristu, kungenxa yokuthi sizonikeza ubufakazi obukhulu ngokuhlanzeka kwenhliziyo futhi uthando lwaphezulu. Ngakho, yini esiyilindele?

... njengoba sizungezwe ifu elikhulu kangaka lofakazi, masizisuse kuwo wonke umthwalo nesono esisinamathele futhi siphikelele ekugijimeni umncintiswano ophambi kwethu kuyilapho sigxilise amehlo ethu kuJesu, umholi nomphelelisi wokukholwa. . Ngenxa yentokozo eyayiphambi Kwakhe, wabekezelela isiphambano, edelela ihlazo laso, futhi wahlala ngakwesokunene sesihlalo sobukhosi sikaNkulunkulu. (Heb. 12: 1-2)
