AMAKHAMBI Yezexwayiso-Ingxenye V wabeka isisekelo salokho engikholelwa ukuthi manje sisondela ngokushesha kulesi sizukulwane. Isithombe siya sicaca ngokwengeziwe, izimpawu zikhuluma kakhulu, imimoya yoshintsho iya ngamandla. Ngakho-ke, uBaba wethu oNgcwele uphinde asibuke ngesisa futhi athi, “Ithemba”… Ngokuba ubumnyama obuzayo abuyikunqoba. Lolu chungechunge lwemibhalo lubhekisa ku- "Ukuqulwa kwecala iminyaka eyisikhombisa" okungase kusondele.
Lokhu kuzindla kuyizithelo zomkhuleko emzamweni wami wokuqonda kangcono imfundiso yeSonto yokuthi uMzimba kaKristu uzolandela iNhloko yawo ngothando lwawo noma "isilingo sokugcina," njengoba ikhathekizimu lisho. Njengoba incwadi yeSambulo ikhuluma ngokuyingxenye yalesi silingo sokugcina, ngihlolisise lapha ukuhumusha okungenzeka kwe-Apocalypse yaseSt.John kanye nephethini ye-Passion kaKristu. Umfundi kufanele akhumbule ukuthi lokhu kungukucabanga kwami uqobo hhayi ukuhumusha okucacile kweSambulo, okuyincwadi enezincazelo nobukhulu obuhlukahlukene, hhayi okuncane, okuyi-eschatological. Imiphefumulo eminingi emihle iwele emaweni abukhali e-Apocalypse. Yize kunjalo, ngizwe ukuthi iNkosi ingiphoqa ukuba ngihambe ngokholo kulolu chungechunge. Ngikhuthaza umfundi ukuthi asebenzise ukuqonda kwakhe, akhanyiselwe futhi aqondiswe yiMagisterium.
AMAZWI ENKOSI YETHU
KumaVangeli Angcwele, uJesu ukhuluma nabaPhostoli mayelana "nezikhathi zokuphela," enikeza isithombe sezenzakalo eziseduze nezizayo. Lesi “sithombe” sihlanganisa zombili izehlakalo zasendaweni, ezinjengokubhujiswa kwethempeli eJerusalema ngo-70 A.D, kanye nemicimbi ebanzi enjengokungqubuzana phakathi kwezizwe, ukuza komphikukristu, ukushushiswa okukhulu, njll. imicimbi kanye nesikhathi. Kungani?
UJesu wayazi ukuthi incwadi kaDaniyeli yayi Uphawu, ingavulwa kuze kufike “isikhathi sokuphela” (Dan 12: 4). Kwakuyintando kaBaba ukuthi kunikezwe kuphela “umdwebo” wezinto ezizayo, nemininingwane eyayizodalulwa esikhathini esizayo. Ngale ndlela, amaKristu azo zonke izikhathi azoqhubeka 'nokubuka futhi athandaze.'
Ngikholwa ukuthi incwadi kaDaniel beyikhona kwembuliwe, namakhasi ayo ayajika manje, ngamunye ngamunye, ukuqonda kwethu ukujula usuku nosuku ngesisekelo "sesidingo sokwazi".
IVIKI KADANIYELI
Incwadi kaDaniel ikhuluma ngomuntu onguMphikukristu obonakala esungula ukubusa kwakhe emhlabeni "isonto."
Futhi uyokwenza isivumelwano esinamandla nabaningi isonto elilodwa; futhi ingxenye yesonto uyoqeda umhlatshelo nomnikelo; phezu kwephiko lezinengiso kuyakufika lowo owenza incithakalo, kuze kuphele ukuphela okunqunyiweyo kuthululwe kumbhubhisi. (Dan 9:27)
Ekufanekisweni kweTestamente Elidala, inombolo "eyisikhombisa" imele ukuphelela. Kulokhu, ukwahlulela ngokulunga nokuphelele kukaNkulunkulu Ukuphila (hhayi Isahlulelo Sokugcina), kuzovunyelwa ngokwengxenye ngalo “mchithi”. “Ingxenye yesonto” uDaniel abhekise kuyo iyinombolo efanayo engokomfanekiso iminyaka emithathu nengxenye esetshenziswe kusAmbulo ukuchaza isikhathi salesi sibalo Somphikukristu.
Isilo sanikwa umlomo washo amazwi okuqhosha nokuhlambalaza, sanikwa negunya lokwenza lokho izinyanga ezingamashumi amane nambili. (IsAm. 13: 5)
Ngakho “isonto” lilingana “neminyaka eyisikhombisa.”
Sibona izinhlobo zalesi sikhathi seminyaka eyisikhombisa kuyo yonke imiBhalo Engcwele. Okubaluleke kakhulu isikhathi sikaNowa lapho, ezinsukwini eziyisikhombisa ngaphambi kukazamcolo, uNkulunkulu emngenisa nomndeni wakhe emkhunjini (Gen 7: 4). Ngiyakholwa Ukukhanya kuzoqala isikhathi esiseduze sokuqulwa kwecala leminyaka eyisikhombisa equkethe ezimbili izinkathi zeminyaka emithathu nengxenye. Lesi yisiqalo se- usuku lweNkosi, ukuqala Kokwahlulelwa kwabaphilayo, kuqala ngeSonto. Umnyango woMphongolo uzohlala uvulekile, mhlawumbe phakathi nesikhathi soMphikukristu (yize uSt.John ekhombisa sonke isikhathi soMphikukristu nokujeziswa okuhambisana nokuthi abantu babengeke baphenduke), kepha kuzovalwa ekupheleni kwecala ngemuva amaJuda aguqukile. Ngemuva kwalokho kuzoqala ukwahlulelwa kwabangaphenduki ku isikhukhula somlilo.
Ngoba sekuyisikhathi sokuba ukwahlulela kuqale ngendlu kaNkulunkulu; uma kuqala ngathi, kuzophela kanjani kulabo abahluleka ukulalela ivangeli likaNkulunkulu? (1 Petru 4:17)
IMIVUYO EMIBILI
Isambulo sikhuluma ngokuvunwa okubili. Okokuqala, i- Ukuvuna Okusanhlamvu uJesu abeke, hhayi ekupheleni komhlaba, kodwa ekupheleni kwe age.
Enye ingelosi yaphuma ethempelini, yamemeza ngezwi elikhulu kulowo owayehlezi phezu kwefu, yathi: “Sebenzisa isikela lakho uvune isivuno, ngokuba isikhathi sokuvuna sesifikile, ngokuba ukuvuna komhlaba sekuvuthwe ngokuphelele.” Lowo owayehlezi efwini waphonsa isikela lakhe emhlabeni, umhlaba wavunwa. (IsAm 14: 15-16)
Ngikholwa ukuthi lesi yisikhathi sokuqala seminyaka emithathu nesigamu esihambisana nokuKhanya. Insali izofaka isikela leZwi likaNkulunkulu, imemezele iVangeli, iqoqele labo abemukela umusa Wayo eMphongolweni… baye “esibayeni” saKhe.
Kodwa-ke, akubona bonke abazoguqula. Ngakho-ke, le nkathi izophinde ihlunge ukhula kukolweni.
… Uma ukhipha ukhula ungasiphula ukolweni kanye nalo. Zikhule ndawonye kuze kube sekuvuneni; khona-ke ngesikhathi sokuvuna ngizothi kubavuni, “Qalani ngokuqoqa ukhula, nilubophe lube izinyanda ukuze lushiswe; kodwa buthelani ukolweni enqolobaneni yami… Isivuno ukuphela kwezwe, futhi abavuni yizingelosi. (Math 13: 29-30, 39)
Ukhula yilezo zihlubuki ezihlala eSontweni kodwa zivukela uKristu nommeli wakhe emhlabeni, uBaba oNgcwele. Ukuhlubuka esiphila kukho manje kuzobonakala ngokusobala ku ukuphikiswa kudalwe yilabo abangaguquki ngokuKhanya. Umgunyathi Ozayo izosebenza njengesefo 'esizolanda' labo abenqaba ukwamukela uJesu, oyiQiniso, kubalandeli Bakhe. Lokhu ukuhlubuka Okukhulu okuzolungisa indlela yaLowo Ongenamthetho.
Labo abamukela uJesu bazomakwa yizingelosi zaKhe ezingcwele, abavuni:
Emva kwalokhu ngabona izingelosi ezine zimi emagumbini omane omhlaba, zibambe imimoya yomine yomhlaba ukuze kungabikho moya ovunguza ezweni noma olwandle noma kunoma imuphi umuthi. Ngase ngibona enye ingelosi inyuka ivela empumalanga, iphethe uphawu lukaNkulunkulu ophilayo. Yakhamuluka ngezwi elikhulu ezingelosini ezine ezazinikwe amandla okonakalisa umhlaba nolwandle, yathi: “Ungoni umhlaba noma ulwandle noma izihlahla size sibeke uphawu emabunzini ezinceku zikaNkulunkulu wethu. (IsAm 7: 1-3)
Manje uyabona ukuthi kungani sizizwa imimoya yenguquko endaweni yemvelo ngokubonakaliswa kweziphepho ezinamandla: sesiseduze noSuku lweNkosi lapho isikhathi Somusa siphela futhi kuqala izinsuku Zobulungiswa! Lapho-ke, izingelosi emagumbini omane omhlaba zizodedelwa ngokuphelele ukwahlulelwa kwalabo abangabekiwe uphawu. Lokhu kungukuvuna kwesibili, i- Ukuvuna Amagilebhisi—Ukukhishwa kwezizwe ezingaphenduki.
Kwase kuphuma enye ingelosi ethempelini ezulwini nayo eyayiphethe isikela elibukhali… Ingelosi yayisiphonsa isikela layo emhlabeni, yasika isivuno somhlaba. Wayiphonsa esikhamweni sewayini esikhulu sentukuthelo kaNkulunkulu. (IsAm 14: 18-19)
Lokhu kuvuna kwesibili kuqala ngeminyaka emithathu nengxenye yokugcina ngesikhathi sokubusa okuvulekile kukaMphikukristu, futhi kufinyelela umvuthwandaba ngokuhlanzwa kwabo bonke ububi emhlabeni. Ngoba kungalesi sikhathi lapho uDaniel athi umchithi uzosusa umhlatshelo wansuku zonke, okungukuthi, iMisa Elingcwele. Njengoba uSt. Pio akubeka:
Kulula ngomhlaba ukuthi ungabi nelanga kunokuthi ungabi nalo iMisa.
Engxenyeni yesibili, ukubhekisisa izinkathi ezimbili zeCala Leminyaka Eyisikhombisa.
