THE Ukubizwa kukaBaba Ongcwele ukuthi iSonto libe “yisibhedlela sasendle” ukuze “kuphulukiswe abalimele” kungumbono omuhle kakhulu, ofike ngesikhathi futhi obonayo. Kodwa yini ngempela edinga ukwelashwa? Ayini amanxeba? Kusho ukuthini “ukwamukela” izoni emkhunjini weBarque of Peter?
Ngokuyinhloko, "iSonto" lenzelwe ini?
Siyazi ukuthi siphukile
Lapho uJesu evela phakathi kwethu, wathi:
Ngize ukuze babe nokuphila babe nakho ngokuchichimayo. (Johane 10:10)
Uma uJesu eze ukusiletha ukuphila, kusho ukuthi ngandlela thile “sifile” Futhi siyazi ukuthi lokhu sekuvele kunjani. Ngisho, abantu abadingi ikhathekizimu ukwazi ukuthi baphukile. Ingabe? Sizwa ukungahleleki ku ukujula kakhulu. Okuthile akulungile, futhi kuze kube yilapho othile esibonisa ukuthi singakulungisa kanjani, abaningi bazozama ukuyilungisa bebodwa ngezinhlelo zokuzisiza,
ukufuna ukwelashwa, imikhuba yeNkathi Entsha, ukusebenzelana nemimoya, i-yoga yesifunda, ukufunda ngengqondo, noma ukubuka uDkt Phil. Kepha uma lokhu kwehluleka (futhi ekugcineni kuzoba njalo, ngoba lokhu esikhuluma ngakho lapha yi- okungokomoya isilonda esidinga, ngakho-ke, eyiqiniso okungokomoya ikhambi), umuntu uzozama ukwelapha noma ukudambisa izinhlungu zokungazinzi, ukukhathazeka, ukuzizwa unecala, ukukhungatheka, ukuphoqeleka, nokwesaba, njll ngokuhlala umatasa, ubheka iwebhu, ukubhema, ukuxoxa ungasebenzi, ukuphupha usuku, ufuna ukuvunywa, ukuthenga, izithombe zocansi, utshwala, izidakamizwa, ezokuzijabulisa noma yini enye. Izithelo zakho konke lokhu, noma kunjalo, zivame ukuzenyanya, ukudangala, kanye nomjikelezo oqhubekayo wokuthambekela kokulimaza noma ukuzibulala. Isithelo siyi- ukufa ngokomoya. [1]isib. "Ngokuba inkokhelo yesono ingukufa, kepha isipho somusa sikaNkulunkulu singukuphila okuphakade kuKristu Jesu iNkosi yethu." [Rom 6:23]
Maye mina! Ngubani ongangikhulula kulo mzimba ofayo? (Rom 7:24)
Lawa ngamanxeba akhulayo akhule adonse inhliziyo yomuntu esimweni sokuhlupheka, futhi kunjalo ezivamile kulo lonke uhlanga lwesintu. Ngani?
SENZIWE NGOTHANDO
Ngenkathi uNkulunkulu edala umbuso wezilwane, wabhala kuzo zonke izidalwa umthetho wemvelo ngokwemvelo yazo. Ngiyamangala ukuthi amazinyane ezinyane 
ngokwemvelo bafuna ukuzingela nokubhoboza, noma ukuthi amahansi azi kanjani ukuthi angandizela nini eningizimu, noma ukuthi umhlaba uqala kanjani ukutsheka ngenye indlela ihlobo noma ubusika. Ngayinye yalezi zilandela umthetho, noma kungokwemvelo noma ngamandla adonsela phansi.
Abantu bayizidalwa nabo — kodwa umahluko: senziwe ngomfanekiso kaNkulunkulu, futhi UNkulunkulu uluthando. [2]isib. 1 Johane 4:8 Ngakho enhliziyweni yomuntu akulotshiwe umthetho wemvelo, kodwa umthetho wothando, engabonakala ngesizathu sodwa. Lokhu sikubiza ngokuthi “umthetho wemvelo.” USt. Thomas Aquinas uyachaza ukuthi…
… Akukho okunye ngaphandle kokukhanya kokuqonda okufakwa nguNkulunkulu kithi, lapho siqonda khona okumele kwenziwe nokuthi yini okufanele igwenywe. UNkulunkulu unikeze lokhu kukhanya kanye nalo mthetho kumuntu lapho edala. —Cf. ISumma Theologiae, I-II, q. 91 ,a. 2; Catechism weSonto LamaKatolika, No. 1955.
Ngakho-ke noma nini lapho simelana nalokhu kukhanya kweqiniso futhi sihamba ngendlela yethu — lokho okubizwa ngokuthi “isono” —silahlekelwa “umjikelezo” wethu ongokomoya ongawusho. Lokhu sikubonile ensimini yase-Edene. Into yokuqala isono esiyivezayo ngukukwazi lokho isithunzi ibolile ngandlela thile.
Asevuleka amehlo abo bobabili, bazi ukuthi bahamba ze… (Gen 3: 7)
Umphumela wesibili wesono ukubona lokho umuntu anakho ukuzwana okuphukile noMdali — noma umuntu engamazi ngegama.
Lapho bezwa umsindo weNkosi uNkulunkulu uhambahamba ensimini ngesikhathi sokuphumula sosuku, u-Adamu nomkakhe bacasha ebusweni bukaJehova uNkulunkulu phakathi kwemithi yensimu. (UGenesise 3: 8)
Kuzwakala njengobugqila kimi.
Ngiqinisile ngithi kini, wonke umuntu owenza isono uyisigqila sesono. (Johane 8:34)
Futhi kungenxa yalokhu ukuthi uJesu weza: ukusikhulula emandleni esono, okungumthombo wehlazo lethu, ngokususa kuqala; bese usibuyisela ebuhlotsheni noBaba— “emzileni” kaNkulunkulu.
… Uzomqamba igama lokuthi uJesu, ngoba uzosindisa abantu bakhe ezonweni zabo. (Math 1:21)
Ngempela, uJesu wathi akazelanga abagulayo, kepha uzele abagulayo, ukubizela “abalungileyo ekuphendukeni, kodwa izoni. ” [3]isib. ULuka 5: 31-32
UMGOMO WAKHE: UMGOMO WETHU
UJesu uyakwazi ukusisindisa ngoba wathwala isijeziso sezono zethu, ukufa, wasizisela yena.
Yena ngokwakhe wathwala izono zethu emzimbeni wakhe esiphambanweni, ukuze, sikhululekile esonweni, siphile ngokulunga. Niphulukisiwe ngamanxeba akhe. (1 Petru 2:24)
Kusobala-ke ukuthi isono ukugula uJesu afika ukuzokuphilisa. Isono yi izimpande kuwo wonke amanxeba ethu. Ngakho-ke, umsebenzi wakho nowami uba yilowo owamenyezelwa nguJesu ethempelini: “Ungigcobile ukuletha izindaba ezimnandi kwabampofu. Ungithume ukuba ngimemezele inkululeko kwabathunjiwe nokuvulwa kwamehlo kwabangaboni, ngidedele abacindezelwe bakhululeke. ” [4]isib. ULuka 4:18
Sizwa namhlanje inkulumo ethi iBandla kumele "lamukele kakhudlwana," ukuthi izoni kumele zizizwe zamukelekile. Kodwa ukuzizwa wamukelekile akusona isiphetho kukodwa. Umsebenzi wethu njengeBandla akukhona ukudala ubuNkulunkulu 
iphathi ye-pajama, kodwa ukwenza abafundi. Angikwazi ukuthola elinye igama elikulungele kangcono ukuchaza “ukunemba kwezepolitiki” okukhohlise ingxenye enkulu yeSonto namuhla njengokuthile inhlekelele.
Ngicabanga ukuthi impilo yesimanje, kubandakanya nempilo eseSontweni, ihlupheka ngenxa yokungazimiseli kokukhohlisa ukucasula lokho okuwubuhlakani nemikhuba emihle, kepha kaningi kuvela ukuthi kuyigwala. Abantu bakweleta ukuhloniphana nenhlonipho efanelekile. Kodwa futhi sikweleta omunye nomunye iqiniso — okusho ukungagunci. - UMbhishobhi Omkhulu uCharles J. Chaput, OFM Cap., Enikela KuKesari: The Vocation Vocation YamaKatolika, ngoFebhuwari 23, 2009, eToronto, eCanada
Enkulumweni yakhe yokuvala yeSynod, uPapa Francis wakhomba lokhu…
… Isilingo sokudebeselela iqiniso, ukusebenzisa ulimi oluqaphelayo nolimi lokushelelisa ukusho izinto eziningi nokungasho lutho!-UPAPA FRANCIS, i-Catholic News Agency, Okthoba 18, 2014
Umsebenzi wethu, njengoKristu, ukufuna abalahlekile, ukumemezela ukuthi bayathandwa nguNkulunkulu, nokuthi Nguye kuphela onamandla okubakhulula esimweni esidabukisayo isono esidala kithi sonke. [5]isib. Johane 3:16 Ngaphandle kwalokho, uma sima ekwamukeleni abanye; uma simane sithi "uyathandwa" futhi unganaki ukwengeza "kepha udinga ukusindiswa", lapho-ke sinikela ngalokho uPapa abebhekisa nakho ngokuthi "umusa okhohlisayo"…
… Ubopha amanxeba ngaphandle kokuqala ukuwelapha nokuwelapha; elapha izimpawu hhayi izimbangela nezimpande. Kuyisilingo "sabenza okuhle," sabantu abesabayo, kanye nalabo okuthiwa "abathuthukayo nabakhululekile." -POPE FRANCIS, Thumela inkulumo yeSinodi, I-Catholic News Agency, Okthoba 18, 2014
Umsebenzi wethu ukuya ezinhliziyweni zabantu ngokufudumala kothando singesabi ukuze sikwazi ukubasebenzela umusa futhi iqiniso lokho kuzobakhulula ngempela — futhi uma bebeka eyabo ukholo othandweni nasemuseni kaJesu. Ngoba umusa neqiniso yizona kuphela izixazululo zeqiniso ezizomelana nemiphumela emibili yesono engadini, okungamahloni nokwehlukana.
Ngoba ngomusa nisindisiwe ngokukholwa, futhi lokhu akuveli kini; kuyisipho sikaNkulunkulu. (Efe 2: 8)
ISIHLO ESIQINISEKILE
Lezi izindaba ezinhle! Siletha imiphefumulo a isipho. Lokhu “ukwamukela” okumele sikwenze kubonakale kwabanye ngobuso bethu, umusa, nothando olungantengi nokubekezela. Kepha futhi masibe ngamaqiniso: abaningi abasifuni lesi sipho; abaningi abafuni ukubhekana nabo noma babhekane neqiniso elizobakhulula (futhi bangakushushisa ngakho). [6]isib. Johane 3: 19-21 Mayelana nalokhu, kufanele futhi sikufanelekele ukuthi kusho ukuthini “ukwamukela”:
Yize kuzwakala kusobala, ukupheleliswa ngokomoya kumele kuholele abanye eduze kakhulu noNkulunkulu, esithola kuye inkululeko yangempela. Abanye abantu bacabanga ukuthi bakhululekile uma bengamgwema uNkulunkulu; bayehluleka ukubona ukuthi bahlala beyizintandane, bengenakuzisiza, bengenamakhaya. Bayayeka ukuba ngabahambeli beze futhi babe ama-drifters, bazishaye bangene futhi bangayi ndawo. Ukuhamba nabo kungaba nomphumela ongemuhle uma kungaba uhlobo oluthile lokwelashwa olusekela ukuzithathela kwabo futhi luyeke ukuba uhambo oluya noKristu kuYise. —I-POPE FRANCIS, Evangelii Gaudium, hhayi. 170
Yebo, ukuthethelelwa yikho okudingwa ngumhlaba, hhayi isihawu! Ububele hhayi 
ukusekela. Ukwazi ukuthi umuntu angaxolelwa, nokuthi wonke udoti womuntu ungakhishelwa ngaphandle endaweni yokulahla inkunkuma, kuzopholisa amaphesenti angama-95 emanxebeni iningi lethu eliwaphethe. Nkulunkulu wami… ukuvuma kwethu izono akunalutho. Kuyinhlekelele! Lezi yizona amakamelo okuhlinzwa "kwesibhedlela sensimu" esilawulayo umusa. Ukube nje imiphefumulo ibikwazi ukwelashwa okukhulu okulindelwe eSigrameni Sokubuyisana, bebezoya njalo — impela ngaphezu kokubona udokotela wabo!
Amanye amaphesenti ama-5, ke, ngumsebenzi we iqiniso ukusisiza sihambe ngokukhululeka ngokwazi ukuthi yini okudingeka siyenze uhlale ekuhambeni kobungane kukaYise.
Ngibona ngokusobala ukuthi into iSonto eliyidinga kakhulu namuhla ukukwazi ukupholisa amanxeba nokufudumeza izinhliziyo zabathembekile; idinga ukusondela, ukusondela. Ngibona iSonto njengesibhedlela sasensimini ngemuva kwempi. Akusizi ngalutho ukubuza umuntu olimale kabi ukuthi une-cholesterol ephezulu yini nokuthi unjani ngezinga likashukela egazini lakhe! Kufanele umpholise amanxeba. Ngemuva kwalokho singakhuluma ngakho konke okunye. Philisa amanxeba, upholise amanxeba…. Futhi kufanele uqale phansi phansi. —UPAPA UFRANCIS, uxoxisana ne-AmericaMagazine.com, ngoSepthemba 30, 2013
Ngakho, isihe, eyiqiniso isihe, yiso 'esizofudumeza' izinhliziyo zabanye futhi sibenze bazizwe bamukeleke ngokweqiniso. Futhi isihe sangempela sinobuso obubili: obethu nobukaKristu. Kumele siqale sikhombise abanye isihe uNkulunkulu asibonise sona.
Ngoba uma samukele uthando olubuyisela injongo ezimpilweni zethu, singahluleka kanjani ukwabelana ngalolo thando nabanye? —I-POPE FRANCIS, Evangelii Gaudium, hhayi. 8
Ngale ndlela, siveza nobuso bukaKristu, okuyi-Divine Mercy. Ngoba nguJesu kuphela ongasikhulula emandleni esono esilonda ukufa.
Ungesabi uMsindisi wakho, mphefumulo onesono. Ngenza isinyathelo sokuqala sokuza kuwe, ngoba ngiyazi ukuthi uwedwa awukwazi ukuziphakamisela kimi. Mntanami, ungabaleki uYihlo; zimisele ukukhuluma ngokukhululekile noNkulunkulu wakho onesihe ofuna ukukhuluma amazwi okuxolela nokunikela ngomusa wakhe kuwe. Uthandeka kangakanani umphefumulo wakho Kimi! Ngiloba igama lakho esandleni Sami; uqoshwe njengesilonda esijulile Enhliziyweni Yami. —UJesu kuya eSt Faustina, Isihe Saphezulu Emphefumulweni Wami, Idayari, n. 1485
Akubusise ngokusekela kwakho!
Akubusise futhi ngiyabonga!
Chofoza ukuze: BHALISA
