UPAPA UFRANCIS futhi ababhishobhi abavela emhlabeni wonke jikelele bahlangane kuleli sonto ukubhekana naleli cala eliphikisayo emlandweni weSonto LamaKatolika. Akuyona inkinga yezocansi kuphela yalabo abaphathiswe umhlambi kaKristu; kuyinto Inkinga yokholo. Kwabesilisa abaphathiswe iVangeli akufanele balishumayele nje kuphela, kodwa ngaphezu kwakho konke siphile it. Lapho bona — noma thina — bengakwenzi, khona-ke siyawa emseni njengezinkanyezi ezivela esibhakabhakeni.
USt.John Paul II, uBenedict XVI, noSt. Paul VI bonke babona sengathi njengamanje siphila esahlukweni seshumi nambili seSambulo njenganoma isiphi esinye isizukulwane, futhi ngiyazithoba ngendlela emangazayo…
IGagasi LOKUNGCOLA
Kwavela isibonakaliso esikhulu esibhakabhakeni, owesifazane embethe ilanga, nenyanga ingaphansi kwezinyawo zakhe, nasekhanda lakhe kukhona umqhele wezinkanyezi eziyishumi nambili. Wayekhulelwe futhi ekhala kakhulu ngezinhlungu njengoba ayesebenza kanzima ebeletha. Kwabe sekuvela esinye isibonakaliso esibhakabhakeni; kwakungudrako omkhulu obomvu… udrako wema phambi kowesifazane owayesezobeletha, ukushwabadela ingane yakhe lapho ebeletha. (IsAm 12: 1-5)
EWorld Youth Day ngo-1993, uJohn Paul II wathi:
Lomhlaba omuhle - othandwa kakhulu nguYise waze wathumela iNdodana yakhe ezelwe yodwa ukusindiswa kwayo (Cf. Io 3,17) - yindawo yaseshashalazini yempi engapheli elwelwa isithunzi sethu nobuyena njengabantu abakhululekile, ngokomoya. Lo mzabalazo uhambisana nempi yokubhubhisa echazwe ku- [IsAm 12]. Ukufa kulwa nokuphila: "isiko lokufa" lifuna ukuzibophezela esifisweni sethu sokuphila, futhi siphile ngokugcwele. —UPAPA ST. UJOHN PAUL II, eCherry Creek State Park eHomily, eDenver, eColorado, ngo-1993; v Vatican.va
Ukuziphatha okubi ngokobulili kanye "nesiko lokufa" yizinto zokulala, ngoba ubufebe, ukuziphatha okubi ngokobulili nokuphinga okugcina kuholele ekusetshenzisweni kokuvimbela inzalo, ukukhipha isisu, nokuhlukumeza ngokocansi. Lesi sikhukhula sokungcola, ukuxhashazwa nokufa, sikhuphuka sibekwa njengendinganiso kuphela eyamukelekayo esikweni lethu,[1]qhathanisa Hhayi iCanada Yami, Mnu. Trudeau yilokho udrako akudedelayo ngokuyinhloko ukushanela “owesifazane,”Okuqinisekiswa uPapa Benedict akuyona nje uphawu lukaMariya, kodwa lwe Church.[2]"Lo wesifazane umele uMariya, uMama woMhlengi, kodwa umele ngasikhathi sinye iBandla lonke, Abantu bakaNkulunkulu bazo zonke izikhathi, iSonto okuthi ngezikhathi zonke, libe nobuhlungu obukhulu, liphinde lizale uKristu." —UPOPE BENEDICT XVI, uCastel Gandolfo, e-Italy, e-AUG. 23, 2006; I-Zenit
Inyoka, nokho, yakhipha isifufula samanzi emlonyeni wayo ngemuva kokuba owesifazane eyikhukhuleke ngamandla ... (Isambulo 12:15)
USt Paul ukhuluma ngoNkulunkulu ukuphakamisa isibambi ngezinhlobo zabantu, ngubani okufanele azi kangcono (abefundisi?), alandele inyama yabo esikhundleni seNkosi yabo…
… Yize babemazi uNkulunkulu abamnikanga inkazimulo njengoNkulunkulu futhi kabambonganga… Ngakho-ke, uNkulunkulu wabanikela ekungcoleni ngezinkanuko zezinhliziyo zabo ngenxa yokwehliswa kwemizimba yabo ... Abesilisa benza izinto ezihlazisayo nabesilisa. (Roma 1:21, 24, 27; bheka futhi 2 Thes 2: 7)Qaphela: Kuyathakazelisa ukuthi ukufundwa kweMisa kokuqala kwanamuhla kugxile encazelweni yangempela kaNkulunkulu “ngothingo lwenkosazana”…
Ngicabanga ukuthi [umfula wamanzi] uhumusheka kalula: lawa yimisinga ebusa bonke futhi efisa ukwenza ukholo eSontweni linyamalale, iSonto elibukeka lingasenandawo ebhekene namandla ale misinga bazibekele bona njengabanengqondo kuphela, njengokuphela kwendlela yokuphila. —POPE BENEDICT XVI, Meditation at Special Assembly for the Middle East of the Sinod of Bishops, October 11th, 2010; v Vatican.va
La mandla awawona wangaphandle kuphela; ngokudabukisayo, bavela ngaphakathi kweBandla uqobo: izimpisi ezigqoke isikhumba semvu uKristu noSt Paul baxwayisa ukuthi zizovela.[3]Mat 7:15; Izenzo 20:29 Ngakho…
… Namuhla sikubona kusimo esesabeka ngokweqiniso: ukushushiswa okukhulu kweBandla akuveli ezitheni zangaphandle, kodwa kuzalwa Isono ngaphakathi eSontweni. —UPOPE BENEDICT XVI, ingxoxo ngendiza eya eLisbon, ePortugal; ILifeSiteNews, Meyi 12, 2010
Kunomunye omunye umusho ongaqondakali kuleyo ndima omayelana nomsebenzi kadrako ongahle ukhombise ukuthi lolu shushiso luvela kubani:
Umsila wayo wakhukhula ingxenye yesithathu yezinkanyezi esibhakabhakeni yaziphonsa emhlabeni. (IsAm 12: 4)
Yini, noma ngubani izinkanyezi lezi?
AMAPHUPHO NEMIBONO
Angiphathi inkonzo yami ngamaphupho kepha ngeMibhalo nangeSiko Elingcwele. Noma kunjalo, uNkulunkulu enza khuluma ngezikhathi ezithile emaphusheni nasemibonweni, futhi ngokusho kukaSt. Peter, lezi zizokhuphuka “ezinsukwini zokugcina.” [4]isib. Izenzo 2:17
Ekuqaleni kwalo mbhalo wobuphostoli, nganginamaphupho amaningi anamandla ayezozwakala kamuva nje lapho ngifunda izimfundiso zeSonto nge-eschatology. Iphupho elilodwa, ikakhulukazi, laliyohlala liqala ngezinkanyezi ezisezulwini ziqala ukuzungeza nokuzungeza. Ngokungazelelwe babeyowa. Ephusheni elilodwa, izinkanyezi zaphenduka amabhola omlilo. Kwaba nokuzamazama komhlaba okukhulu. Ngenkathi ngiqala ukufuna umbozo wokufihla, ngikhumbula kahle ngidlula esontweni elinezisekelo zalo ezazibhidlikile, amafasitela alo anengilazi enamabala manje atshekele phansi emhlabeni (indodana yami yayinephupho elifanayo emasontweni ambalwa edlule). Futhi lokhu kuvela encwadini engikuthole cishe ngaleso sikhathi:
Ngaphambi nje kokuvuka namhlanje ekuseni ngezwa izwi. Lokhu bekungafani nezwi engalizwa eminyakeni edlule lithi “Sekuqalile.”Esikhundleni salokho, leli zwi lalithambile, hhayi njengokuyala, kepha lalibonakala linothando futhi linolwazi futhi lithule ngethoni. Ngingasho kakhulu izwi lowesifazane kunelowesilisa. Engikuzwile kube umusho owodwa… la magama abenamandla (kusukela namhlanje ekuseni bengizama ukuphusha ngaphandle kwengqondo yami futhi angikwazi):
“Izinkanyezi zizowa.”
Ngisho nokubhala lokhu manje ngizwa ukuthi amagama asenanela engqondweni yami futhi into ehlekisayo, bekuzwakala sengathi kusheshe kunakuqala, noma ngabe isheshe yaba yini.
Umqondo wami ukuthi leli phupho linencazelo engokomoya nengokoqobo. Kepha lapha, ake sibhekane nesici esingokomoya.
IZINKANYEZI Eziwile
Ekhuluma nokuhlubuka okwakwanda eSontweni, uSt.Paul VI wabhekisa kulesi sahluko esifanayo kusAmbulo:
Umsila kasathane usebenza ekuhlakazekeni komhlaba wamaKhatholika. Ubumnyama bukaSathane bungene basabalala kulo lonke iSonto LamaKhatholika kuze kufike esiqongweni salo. Ukuhlubuka, ukulahleka kokholo, kusakazeka emhlabeni wonke kuya emazingeni aphakeme kakhulu eSontweni. —Ikheli lesikhumbuzo seminyaka eyisithupha nesithupha seFatima Apparitions, ngo-Okthoba 13, 1977; kucashunwe ku Corriere della Sera, ikhasi. 7, Okthoba 14, 1977
Lapha, uPaul VI uqhathanisa ukushanela kwezinkanyezi “nokuwohloka kwezwe lamaKatolika.” Uma kunjalo, zingobani izinkanyezi?
Esahlukweni sokuqala seSambulo, uJesu uyalela izincwadi eziyisikhombisa eziya kuSt. Lezi zincwadi zibhekiswe “ezinkanyezini eziyisikhombisa” ezivela esandleni sikaJesu ekuqaleni kombono:
Le yincazelo eyimfihlo yezinkanyezi eziyisikhombisa ozibonile esandleni sami sokunene, nakwezinti zezibani eziyisikhombisa zegolide: izinkanyezi eziyisikhombisa ziyizingelosi zamabandla ayisikhombisa, futhi izinti zezibani eziyisikhombisa zingamabandla ayisikhombisa. (IsAm. 1:20)
“Izingelosi” noma “izinkanyezi” lapha kungenzeka ukuthi zisho ukuthi abefundisi weBandla. Njengoba I-Navarre Bible amanothi wokuhlaziya:
Izingelosi zamabandla ayisikhombisa zingamela ababhishobhi abaphethe bona, noma-ke izingelosi ezingabaqaphi ezibagadayo… Noma ngabe yikuphi, into enhle kakhulu ukubona izingelosi zamabandla, okubhekiswe kuzo izincwadi, njengokusho labo ababusa futhi bavikele isonto ngalinye egameni likaKristu. -Incwadi yesambulo, “INavarre Bible”, k. 36
The I-New American Bible umbhalo waphansi uyavuma:
Abanye baye babona “engelosini” yesonto ngalinye kulawa ayisikhombisa umfundisi wayo noma ukwenziwa samuntu komoya webandla. -I-New American Bible, umbhalo waphansi wesAm. 1:20
Nanti iphuzu elisemqoka: Umbono kaSt. John wembula ukuthi ingxenye yalezi “zinkanyezi” izokuwa noma iphonswe "ekuhlubukeni" okubonakalayo. Lokhu kuzokwenzeka ngaphambi kokuvela kwalowo iSiko elibiza ngoMphikukristu, "umuntu ongenamthetho" noma "indodana yolahleko."
Makungabikho muntu onikhohlisa nganoma iyiphi indlela; ngoba lolo suku alunakufika, ngaphandle kokuthi kufike ukuhlubuka kuqala, kwembulwe umuntu ongenamthetho, indodana yokubhujiswa. (2 Thes. 2: 1-3)
UPope Francis uchaza lokhu kuhlubuka (ukuhlubuka) njengokuhla enyameni, kuya ekuthandeni izwe:
… Izwe liyimpande yobubi futhi lingaholela ekubeni sishiye amasiko ethu futhi sixoxisane ngokuthembeka kwethu kuNkulunkulu othembekile njalo. Lokhu… kubizwa ngokuthi ukuhlubuka, oku… kuyindlela “yokuphinga” eyenzeka lapho sixoxisana ngomongo wobuntu bethu: ukwethembeka eNkosini. —UPapa uFrancis ovela ekhaya, IVatican Radio, Novemba 18, 2013
USt. Gregory the Great uyayiqinisekisa le mfundiso:
Izulu liyibandla okuthi ngobusuku balempilo yamanje, ngenkathi lona ngokwalo linezimfanelo ezingenakubalwa zabangcwele, likhanye njengezinkanyezi ezikhazimulayo zasezulwini; kepha umsila kadrako ushanela izinkanyezi ziye emhlabeni… Izinkanyezi eziwa ezulwini yilabo asebelahle ithemba ezintweni zasezulwini futhi bahahela, ngaphansi kokuholwa uSathane, umkhakha wenkazimulo yasemhlabeni. -I-Moralia, 32, 13
Lokhu, futhi, kungenzeka phakathi kwabaphathi lapho bengenela ebufundisini noma "emsebenzini wokusebenzela umsebenzi omele ukuqashelwa, ukushayelwa ihlombe, imivuzo kanye nesikhundla." [5]U-Evangelii Gaudium,n. 277 Kepha kuhlazeka kakhulu lapho kungabandakanyi izono zenyama kuphela, kodwa nabefundisi abasebenzisa ama-sophistries ukubathethelela.[6]qhathanisa Ukulwa Nesihe Ngalokho, amazwi kaPapa Paul VI asebenza ngamandla njengoba siqala ukubona isiprofetho sika-Akita senzeka phambi kwamehlo ethu:
Umsebenzi kasathane uzongena ungene eSontweni ngendlela yokuthi umuntu abone amakhadinali aphikisana nokhadinali, ababhishobhi abamele ababhishobhi. Abapristi abangikhonzayo bazoklolodelwa baphikiswe ngokuhlangana kwabo…. amasonto nama-altare kukhishwe; iSonto lizogcwala labo abamukela ukuyekethisa futhi idimoni lizocindezela abapristi abaningi nemiphefumulo ezingcwelisile ukuba bayeke ukusebenza kweNkosi… Njengoba ngishilo kuwe, uma abantu bengaphenduki futhi bazenze ngcono, uBaba uzonikeza isijeziso esibi sonke isintu. Kuzoba isijeziso esikhulu ukwedlula uzamcolo, njengaleso ongeke wasibona ngaphambili. Umlilo uzokuwa esibhakabhakeni futhi uzosula ingxenye enkulu yesintu, enhle nengalungile, kungasindisi abapristi noma abathembekile. —Umlayezo owanikezwa uSr. Agnes Sasagawa wase-Akita, eJapan, ngo-Okthoba 13, 1973
USt. John unikezwa eminye imibono yezinto eziwayo zasezulwini ezimenyezelwa “ngamacilongo.” Okokuqala, kuvela ezulwini "isichotho nomlilo oxubene negazi" bese kuba "intaba evuthayo" bese kuba "inkanyezi evutha njengesibani." Ngabe la “macilongo” afanekisela a wesithathu yabapristi, ababhishobhi, kanye nokhadinali? Udrako-osebenza ngokuhlangana kwamandla, okufihliwe nokuhlelekile[7]ie. “Izinhlangano eziyimfihlo”; isib. Imfihlakalo iBabiloni—Susa ingxenye yesithathu yezinkanyezi — okungukuthi, mhlawumbe, ingxenye yesithathu yabefundisi beSonto baye ekuhlubukeni, kanye nalabo ababalandelayo.
ISIKHATHI SANGEMPELA?
Njengoba ukuhlaselwa kwabefundisi ngemuva kwehlazo kuqhubeka ukubonakala, sibheke ngesikhathi sangempela njengoba “izinkanyezi” ziwela “emhlabeni” — ezinye zazo, izinkanyezi ezinkulu kakhulu, njengoKhadinali wangaphambili UTheodore McCarrick, uFr. UMarcial Maciel, njll. Kepha empeleni, ukuwa kwaqala kudala. Kuyimanje manje lapho sibona lezi zinkanyezi zingena emkhathini we iqiniso futhi ubulungiswa.
Ngoba sekuyisikhathi sokuba ukwahlulela kuqale ngendlu kaNkulunkulu; uma kuqala ngathi, kuzophela kanjani kulabo abahluleka ukulalela ivangeli likaNkulunkulu? (1 Pet. 4:17)
Futhi, akukhona nje amahlazo ezocansi eSontweni. Manje ukuvela kwe- Ukulwa Nesihe yizinkomfa zababhishobhi ezithile ezisonteka imiBhalo ukuze zinikeze unembeza wakho amandla okuzimela phezu kwemfundiso yeSonto engaguquguquki ngomshado nezocansi. Njengoba uKhadinali Müller akhala:
...akulungile ukuthi ababhishobhi abaningi kangaka bayatolika U-Amoris Laetitia ngokwendlela yabo yokuqonda imfundiso kaPapa. Lokhu akugcini kulayini wezimfundiso zamaKhatholika… Lawa ama-sophistries: iZwi likaNkulunkulu licace bha futhi iSonto alikwamukeli ukwenziwa umshado njengokwenkolo. —UKhadinali Müller, I-Catholic Herald, Febhuwari 1, 2017; Umbiko Wezwe WamaKatolikaFebruwari 1, 2017
Futhi muva nje ku- “Manifesto of Faith” yakhe, uxwayise:
Ukuthula kulawa namanye amaqiniso oKholo nokufundisa abantu ngakho-ke kuyinkohliso enkulu kunazo zonke iCatechism exwayisa ngayo kakhulu. Limele ukuqulwa kwecala lokugcina kweSonto futhi liholela umuntu enkohlisweni engokwenkolo, "inani lokuhlubuka kwabo" (CCC 675); yi- ukukhwabanisa Umphikukristu. “Uyokhohlisa labo abadukile ngazo zonke izindlela zokungabi nabulungisa; ngoba bazivalele ngothando lweqiniso okufanele basindiswe ngalo ” (2 Thes. 2: 10). -Ukubhaliswa KwamaKatolika Kazwelonke, Febhruwari 8, 2019
Ulwelwesi lwesiliva kukho konke lokhu? NgokukaSt. John, amashumi amabili nantathu yezinkanyezi ziyakwenza hhayi ukuwa. Sengathi singathandaza futhi sizile ukudla okungaphezulu kwalapho, hhayi kuphela abelusi bethu abathembekile ukuthi bona “Nibe ngabangenacala nabangenacala, bantwana bakaNkulunkulu abangenasici phakathi kwesizukulwane esigwegwile nesonakele, enikhanya phakathi kwabo njengezinkanyiso emhlabeni”...[8]UPhil 2: 15 kodwa futhi ukuguqulwa kwalezo zinkanyezi eziwile — kanye nokwelashwa kwalabo abalimele ngokuhlubuka kwabo.
Uyabona… lezi zinkanyezi?… Lezi zinkanyezi ziyimiphefumulo yamaKrestu athembekile… —UJesu kuya eSt Faustina, Isihe SikaNkulunkulu Somphefumlo Wami, Idayari, n. 424
Sikuphi manje ngomqondo we-eschatological? Kuyaphikiswa ukuthi siphakathi kokuhlubuka nokuthi empeleni inkohliso enamandla yehlele abantu abaningi, abaningi. Yikho ukukhohlisa nokuhlubuka okufanekisela okuzokwenzeka ngokulandelayo: “Bese kwambulwa umuntu ongenamthetho.” - Umhl. UCharles Pope, "Ingabe Lawa Amabhendi Angaphandle Esigwebo Esizayo?", Novemba 11, 2014; ibhulogi
