Isiphepho iSandy, Isithombe nguKen Cedeno, Izithombe zeCorbis

KUNGANI kube yipolitiki yomhlaba wonke, umkhankaso kamongameli wakamuva waseMelika, noma ubudlelwano bomndeni, siphila esikhathini lapho ukuhlukana seziya ngokugqama, zikhulu futhi zibe munyu. Empeleni, lapho sixhunyaniswa kakhulu yimithombo yezokuxhumana, kulapho sihlukana khona ngokwengeziwe sibonakala sifana nezingxenye ze-Facebook, izinkundla, nezimvo iba yinkundla yokuhlambalaza omunye — ngisho isihlobo sakhe… ngisho nopapa wakho uqobo. Ngithola izincwadi ezivela kuwo wonke umhlaba ezidabukisa ngokwehlukana kwabantu abaningi, ikakhulukazi emindenini yabo. Futhi manje sibona ukuhlangana okuphawulekayo futhi mhlawumbe okuprofethwe ngakho “Okhadinali abaphikisana nokhadinali, ababhishobhi abamele ababhishobhi” njengoba kwabikezelwa ngu-Our Lady of Akita ngo-1973.

Umbuzo-ke uthi, ungaziletha kanjani wena, futhi ngethemba lokuthi umndeni wakho, ngalesi Sivunguvungu Sokwahlukana?

YAMUKELA ILOTI LOMKRISTU

Ngokushesha emva kwenkulumo yokugcotshwa kukaMongameli uDonald Trump, umhlaziyi wezindaba wazibuza ukuthi ukubhekisa kaningi komholi omusha "kuNkulunkulu" kwakuyimizamo yokuhlanganisa izwe lonke ngaphansi kwesibhengezo esisodwa. Impela, imithandazo yokuvula nezibusiso ezihambayo kaningi futhi ngaphandle kokuphikisa yenze igama lika uJesu. Kwakungubufakazi obunamandla engxenyeni yezisekelo zomlando waseMelika ezazibonakala zonke zikhohliwe. Kepha uJesu lowo futhi wathi:

Ningacabangi ukuthi ngizele ukuletha ukuthula emhlabeni; Angizelanga ukuletha ukuthula kepha inkemba. Ngoba ngize ukuzoxabanisa umuntu noyise, nendodakazi nonina, nomalokazana amelane noninazala; nezitha zomuntu kuyakuba ngabendlu yakhe. (Math 10: 34-36)

La magama angaqondakali angaqondakala ngokubheka amanye amazwi kaKristu:

Yilesi isinqumo, ukuthi ukukhanya kweza emhlabeni, kepha abantu bakhetha ubumnyama kunokukhanya, ngoba imisebenzi yabo imibi. Ngoba wonke umuntu owenza izinto ezimbi uzonda ukukhanya futhi akezi ekukhanyeni, ukuze imisebenzi yakhe ingadalulwa… Bangizonda ngaphandle kwesizathu ... ngoba awuyena owomhlaba, futhi ngikukhethile ezweni , umhlaba uyakuzonda. (Johane 3: 19-20; 15:25; 19)

Iqiniso, njengoba lembulwe kuKristu, aligcini nje ngokukhulula, kodwa futhi liyalahla, lithukuthele, futhi lixoshe labo onembeza wabo udidekile noma abenqaba izimiso zeVangeli. Into yokuqala ukwamukela leli qiniso, lokho nawe izokwaliwa uma uzihlanganisa noKristu. Uma ungeke wakwemukela, ngeke ube ngumKrestu, ngoba uJesu wathi,

Uma umuntu eza kimi futhi engamzondi uyise nonina nonkosikazi nezingane nezingane nabafowabo nodadewabo, yebo, ngisho nokuphila kwakhe, angebe ngumfundi wami. (Luka 14:26)

Okusho ukuthi, uma noma ubani ebeka phansi iqiniso ukuze amukelwe futhi avunyelwe — ngisho nomndeni wakhe uqobo — ubeke isithombe sokuzikhukhumeza nesithunzi sakhe ngaphezu kukaNkulunkulu. Uke wangizwa kaningi ngicaphuna uJohn Paul II owathi, "Manje sibhekene nengxabano yokugcina phakathi kweSonto nabamelene nesonto, njll.". Ngikholwa wukuthi sizobona ukwehlukana okungenakugwemeka phakathi kobumnyama nokukhanya kukhula ezinyangeni naseminyakeni ezayo. Isihluthulelo ukulungela lokhu, bese uphendula njengoba kwenza uJesu:

… Thanda izitha zakho, wenze okuhle kulabo abakuzondayo, ubusise labo abakuqalekisayo, ubathandazele labo abakuphatha kabi. (Luka 6: 27-28)

IZAHLULELO: IMBEWU Yokwahlukana

Enye yezindlela ezicashile kakhulu uSathane asebenza ngazo namuhla ukuhlwanyela izahlulelo ezinhliziyweni. Ngingakunika isibonelo sakho siqu…

Eminyakeni embalwa eyedlule, ngezwa ukugcwala kokwenqaba kuqhamuka kuzo zonke izinhlangothi — enye nje yezindleko zokwenza le nkonzo ethile. Kodwa-ke, ngashiya inhliziyo yami ingagadiwe, futhi ngomzuzwana wokuzidabukela, ngavumela ukwahlulela kubambe enhliziyweni: ukuthi umkami nezingane futhi ngilahle. Ezinsukwini nasezinyangeni ezalandela, ngaqala ngobuqili ukusho futhi ngifaka izinto kuzo, ngifaka amagama emilonyeni yazo, lokho kuphakamisa ukuthi babengangithandi noma bengangamukeli. Lokhu kwabadida futhi kwabakhathaza… kodwa-ke, ngikholwa ukuthi nabo baqala ukuphelelwa yithemba kimi njengendoda nobaba. Ngelinye ilanga, umkami washo okuthile kimi okwakuqonde ngqo kuMoya oNgcwele: “Maka, yeka ukuvumela abanye bakwenze kabusha ngomfanekiso wabo, noma ngabe yimi noma izingane zakho noma omunye umuntu.”Kwakuyisikhathi sokukhanya esigcwaliswe ngomusa lapho uNkulunkulu eqala ukuqaqa amanga. Ngacela intethelelo, ngawalahla lawo manga ebengikade ngiwakholelwa, ngabe sengiqala ukuvumela uMoya oNgcwele ungiphinde ungiphinde ngomfanekiso kaNkulunkulu — Yena yedwa.

Ngikhumbula esinye isikhathi lapho nganginikeza ikhonsathi esixukwini esincane. Indoda ebiphethe isichotho ebusweni ihlale kusihlwa ingaphenduli futhi, kuhle, iklwebha. Ngiyakhumbula ngicabanga ngedwa, “Yini engalungile ngalowo mfana? Inhliziyo elukhuni kanjani! ” Kodwa ngemuva kwekhonsathi, weza kimi wangibonga, ngokusobala ethintwe yiNkosi. Mfana, ngabe nginephutha.

Kukangaki sifunda ukukhuluma noma izenzo zomuntu noma ama-imeyili futhi amabhere bacabanga noma basho okuthile abangekho? Kwesinye isikhathi umngani uyahoxa, noma umuntu obe nomusa kuwe ngokungazelele angakunaki noma angakuphenduli ngokushesha. Izikhathi eziningi akuhlangene nawe, kepha kunokuthile abadlula kukho. Kaningi kunalokho, kuvela ukuthi abanye nabo abaphephile njengawe. Emphakathini wethu ophoqelelayo, sidinga ukumelana nokweqa iziphetho futhi esikhundleni sokucabanga okubi kakhulu, sithathe okuhle kakhulu.

Iba ngowokuqala ukusabalalisa lezo zahlulelo. Nazi izindlela ezinhlanu kanjani…

I. Ungawanaki amaphutha omunye.

Akunakugwemeka ukuthi ngisho nabasanda kushada abasanda kuthandana ekugcineni bazobhekana ngqo namaphutha abashade nabo. Kanjalo nakubantu ohlala nabo, ofunda nabo, noma osebenza nabo. Chitha isikhathi esanele nomunye umuntu, futhi uqinisekile ukuthi uzokhucululwa ngendlela engafanele. Lokho kungenxa yokuthi konke kithina singaphansi kwemvelo yomuntu ewile. Kungakho uJesu athi:

Yibani nesihe, njengoba noYihlo enesihe. Ngahluleli, khona aniyikwahlulelwa; ungalahli, khona awuyikulahlwa ... (Luka 6:37)

Kunombhalo omncane engihlala ngikhumbuza izingane zami ngawo noma nini lapho kunezingxabano ezincane, futhi ikakhulukazi, noma nini lapho sikulungele ukubhekana namaphutha omunye: “thwalisanani imithwalo yenu. ”

Bazalwane, ngisho noma umuntu ebanjwe yisiphambeko esithile, nina abangokomoya kufanele nimlungise lowo ngomoya omnene, nizibheke nina, ukuze nani ningalingwa. Thwalisanani imithwalo yenu, futhi kanjalo niyogcwalisa umthetho kaKristu. (Gal 6: 1-2)

Noma kunini lapho ngibona amaphutha abanye, ngizama ukuzikhumbuza ngokushesha ukuthi hhayi nje kuphela ukuthi ngiye ngehluleka ngendlela efanayo, kodwa nokuthi nginamaphutha ami futhi ngisengumoni. Kulezo zikhathi, kunokuba ngigxeke, ngikhetha ukuthandaza, “Nkosi, ngixolele, ngoba ngiyindoda enesono. Yiba nomusa kimi nakumfowethu. ” Ngale ndlela, kusho uSt. Paul, sigcwalisa umthetho kaKristu, okungukuthi sithandane njengoba naye asithanda.

Kukangaki iNkosi isixolele futhi inganaki amaphutha ethu?

Yilowo nalowo makangabheki okwakhe kuphela, kodwa futhi abheke nokwabanye. (Fil 2: 4)

II. Thethelela, kaninginingi

Kuleyo ndima evela kuLuka, uJesu uyaqhubeka:

Thethelela uzothethelelwa. (Luka 6:37)

Kukhona ingoma ethandwayo lapho amagama esiya khona:

Kubuhlungu, kubuhlungu
Kungani singeke sikhulume ngakho?
O kubonakala kimi
Lokho kuzisola kubonakala kuyizwi elinzima kakhulu.
—U-Elton John, "Uxolo Kubonakala Kuyizwi Elinzima Kunazo Zonke"

Umunyu nokwehlukana imvamisa kuyizithelo zokungathetheleli, okungathatha isimo sokunganaki umuntu, ukumnikeza ihlombe elibandayo, ukumhleba noma ukumnyundela, ukuhlala emaphutheni obuntu bakhe, noma ukubaphatha ngokwesikhathi esidlule. UJesu, futhi, uyisibonelo sethu esihle. Ngenkathi ebonakala kubaPhostoli ekamelweni eliphezulu okokuqala ngemuva kokuvuka kwakhe, akazange abadelele ngokubaleka kwabo engadini. Kunalokho wathi, "Ukuthula makube kinina."

Lwela ukuthula nabo bonke abantu, futhi nalobo bungcwele okungekho noyedwa oyobona iNkosi ngaphandle kwabo. Qaphelani ukuba kungabikho ophucwa umusa kaNkulunkulu, kungabi bikho mpande ebabayo evelayo ibangele inkathazo, lapho abaningi bengangcoliswa khona. (Heb 12: 14-15)

Thethelela, noma ngabe kubuhlungu. Lapho uxolela, weqa umjikelezo wenzondo futhi ukhulule amaketanga entukuthelo azungeze inhliziyo yakho. Noma bengakwazi ukuxolela, wena okungenani uxolile free.

III. Lalela omunye

Ukwehlukana kaningi kuyizithelo zokungakwazi kwethu ukulalelana, ngiqonde ukuthi, ngempela lalela —kakhulukazi lapho sakhe umbhoshongo wokwahlulela ngokumelene no okunye. Uma kukhona umuntu empilweni yakho ohlukene kabi naye, khona-ke uma kungenzeka, hlala phansi bese lalela ngasohlangothini lwabo lendaba. Lokhu kuthatha ukuvuthwa okuthile. Bezwe ngaphandle kokuzivikela. Futhi-ke, lapho ulalele, yabelana ngombono wakho ngobumnene, ngokubekezela. Uma kukhona intando enhle kuzo zombili izingxenye, imvamisa ukubuyisana kungenzeka. Yiba nesineke ngoba kungathatha isikhashana ukuxazulula izahlulelo nokucabanga okudale iqiniso elingamanga. Khumbula, okwashiwo uSt. Paul:

… Umzabalazo wethu awuhlangene nenyama negazi kepha ubuswa yizikhulu, namandla, nababusi bomhlaba balobu bumnyama bamanje, nemimoya emibi ezulwini. (Efe 6:12)

Sonke - kwesobunxele, kwesokudla, esivulekile, esigcina imvelo, esimnyama, esimhlophe, owesilisa, owesifazane - siphuma esitokisini esisodwa; sopha igazi elifanayo; sonke simunye wemicabango kaNkulunkulu. UJesu akafelanga amaKhatholika alungile, kepha wafela abantu abakholelwa ebukhoneni bukaNkulunkulu, abantu abanenkani abanenkani, nabazidla ngokuzidla. Wasifela sonke.

Kulula kakhulu ukuba nesihe lapho sibona ukuthi umakhelwane wethu empeleni akasona isitha.

Uma kungenzeka, ngasohlangothini lwenu, hlalani ngokuthula nabantu bonke… Masiphishekele-ke lokho okuholela ekuthuleni nasekwakhaneni. (Rom 12:18, 14:19)

IV. Thatha isinyathelo sokuqala

Lapho kunokungezwani nokwahlukana ebudlelwaneni bethu, njengamaKristu eqiniso, kufanele senze ingxenye yethu ukukuqeda.

Babusisiwe abalamulayo, ngokuba bayakuthiwa abantwana bakaNkulunkulu. (Math 5: 9)

Futhi,

… Uma uletha isipho sakho e-altare, bese ukhumbula lapho ukuthi umfowenu unokuthile ngawe, shiya isipho sakho lapho phambi kwe-altare, uhambe; qala ubuyisane nomfowenu, bese uyafika unikele isipho sakho. (Math 5: 23-24)

Ngokusobala, uJesu ucela mina nawe ukuba sithathe isinyathelo kuqala.

Ngiyakhumbula ekuqaleni kwenkonzo yami eminyakeni eminingana eyedlule, umpristi othile wayebonakala engitholile. Emihlanganweni, wayevame ukungiqhamuka ngokushesha futhi ngokuvamile aphole ngemva kwalokho. Ngakho-ke ngolunye usuku, ngaya kuye ngathi, “Fr., ngibonile ukuthi ubonakala ngathi ucasukile ngami, futhi bengizibuza ukuthi kukhona yini engikwenzile ukukucasula? Uma kunjalo, ngifuna ukuxolisa. ” Umpristi wahlala emuva, wadonsa umoya kakhulu wathi, “Hawu! Bheka ngingumpristi, nokho-ke nguwe oza kimi. Ngiphoxeke kakhulu — futhi ngiyaxolisa. ” Uqhubeke wachaza ukuthi kungani engenasimilo. Ngenkathi ngichaza umbono wami, kwavulwa izahlulelo, futhi kwakungekho okusele ngaphandle kokuthula.

Kunzima futhi kuyalulaza kwesinye isikhathi ukuthi, "Ngiyaxolisa." Kepha ubusisiwe uma wenza lokho. Ubusisiwe.

V. Ngiyeke…

Into enzima kakhulu ukuyenza ngokwehlukana ukuthi "siyeke," ikakhulukazi lapho singaqondwa kahle futhi izahlulelo noma inhlebo noma ukwaliwa kulenga emakhanda ethu njengefu elicindezelayo — futhi asikwazi ukuzisusa. Ukuhamba usuka empini yeFacebook, ukuya ake omunye umuntu abe nezwi lokugcina, aphele ngaphandle kokuba kwenziwe ubulungiswa noma idumela lakho liqinisekiswe… ngalezo zikhathi, sikhonjwa kakhulu noKristu oshushiswayo: Lowo ohlekisiwe, ohlekwayo, oqondwa kabi.

Futhi njengaye, kungcono ukhethe "ukuthula" ngokuthula. ^[1]qhathanisa Impendulo Ethule Kepha yilokho kuthula okusichoboza kakhulu ngoba asisenabo “oSimoni baseKhurene” abasisekelayo, izixuku zokuqinisekisa, noma okubonakala kungubulungiswa beNkosi okumele buvikelwe. Asinalutho ngaphandle kokhuni olunzima lwesiphambano… kodwa ngalowo mzuzu, ubumbene noJesu ekuhluphekeni kwakho.

Ngokwami, lokhu ngikuthola kunzima ngokweqile, ngoba ngazalelwa le nkonzo; ukuba ngumlwi… (Igama lami nginguMark okusho ukuthi “iqhawe”; igama lami eliphakathi nginguMichael, ngemuva kwengelosi enkulu elwayo; futhi isibongo sami nguMallett— “isando”)… kodwa kufanele ngikhumbule ukuthi ingxenye ebalulekile ufakazi wethu akagcini ngokuvikela iqiniso, kepha ukuthanda ukuthi uJesu wakukhombisa ebusweni bokungabi nabulungisa ngokuphelele, okwakungekhona ukulwa, kodwa ukubeka phansi ukuzivikela Kwakhe, idumela laKhe, ngisho nesithunzi Sakhe ngenxa yothando ngomunye.

Unganqotshwa okubi kepha nqoba okubi ngokuhle. (Rom 12:21)

Njengabazali, kunzima kakhulu ukudedela ingane esihlukene nayo, ingane evukelayo futhi yenqabe lokho enikufundise khona. Kubuhlungu ukwaliwa yingane yakho uqobo! Kepha lapha, sibizelwe ukulingisa uyise wendodana yolahleko: yekela… Bese-ke, yiba ubuso bothando olungenamibandela nesihe kubo. Asibona uMsindisi wezingane zethu. Mina nomkami sinezingane eziyisishiyagalombili. Kepha ngayinye yazo ihluke kakhulu komunye. Benziwe ngomfanekiso kaNkulunkulu, kusukela ebuncaneni kuqhubeke, bathola amandla okuzikhethela ngokwentando yabo yokuzikhethela. Kufanele sikuhloniphe lokho ngendlela esizama ngayo ukuyakha. Yekela. Vumela uNkulunkulu. Imithandazo yakho ngaleso sikhathi inamandla amakhulu kunezimpikiswano ezingapheli…
