Isithombe seReuters

 

BAYA Lawa ngamazwi okuthi, ngaphansi nje konyaka, aqhubeke ukuzwakala kulo lonke iSonto nasemhlabeni wonke: “Ngingubani mina ukuba ngahlulele?” Babeyimpendulo kaPapa Francis embuzweni owabuzwa kuye mayelana "nendawo yokwamukela izitabane" eSontweni. Lawo mazwi asephenduke isililo sempi: okokuqala, kulabo abafisa ukuthethelela ubungqingili; okwesibili, kulabo abafisa ukuthethelela izimiso zabo zokuziphatha; futhi okwesithathu, kulabo abafisa ukuthethelela ukucabanga kwabo ukuthi uPapa Francis uyisichasiso esisodwa sikaMphikukristu.

Lesi sikhashana sikaPapa Francis 'empeleni sichazwa ngamagama kaSt.Paul encwadini yeSt. James, owabhala: “Ungubani-ke wena ukwahlulela umakhelwane wakho?” ^[1]isib. UJam 4:12 Amagama kaPapa manje asatshalaliswa ezikibheni, ngokushesha aba yisiqubulo esidlulile ...

 

YEKA UKUNGAHLULELA

IVangeli likaLuka, uJesu uthi, “Yekani ukwahlulela futhi ngeke nahlulelwe. Yeka ukulahla ukuze nawe ungalahlwa. ” ^[2]I-Lk 6: 37 Asho ukuthini la magama? 

Uma ubona owesilisa entshontsha isikhwama semali sesalukazi, ngabe akulungile yini kuwe umemeze: “Yima! Ukweba akulungile! ” Kodwa kuthiwani uma ephendula, “Yeka ukungihlulela. Awusazi isimo sami sezimali. ” Uma ubona osebenza naye ethatha imali kwirejista yemali, kungaba yiphutha yini ukuthi, “Hheyi, awukwazi ukukwenza lokho”? Kodwa kuthiwani uma ephendula, “Yeka ukungihlulela. Ngenza umsebenzi wami omuhle lapha ukuze ngithole umholo omncane. ” Uma uthola umngani wakho ekopela intela yemali futhi ephakamisa inkinga, kuthiwani uma ephendula athi, “Yeka ukungihlulela. Ngikhokha intela eningi kakhulu. ” Noma kuthiwani uma oshade naye ophingile ethi, “Yeka ukungihlulela. Nginesizungu ”…?

Siyabona ezibonelweni ezingenhla ukuthi umuntu wenza izinqumo mayelana nokuziphatha kwezenzo zomunye umuntu, nokuthi lokho bekungafanele hhayi ukukhuluma. Eqinisweni, mina nawe senza izinqumo zokuziphatha ngaso sonke isikhathi, noma ngabe ukubona umuntu edlula ngophawu lokuma noma ezwa ukuthi abantu baseNyakatho Korea babulawa yindlala emakamu okuhlushwa. Sihlala, bese siyahlulela.

Iningi labantu abaziphethe kahle bayabona ukuthi, uma singakwenzi ukwahlulela futhi simane sishiye wonke umuntu enze abakufunayo abafake uphawu oluthi “Ungangihluleli” emihlane yabo, sizoba nezinxushunxushu. Ukube asizange sahlulele, khona-ke bekungeke kube khona umthetho-sisekelo, owomphakathi, noma owobugebengu. Ngakho-ke ukwenza izahlulelo empeleni kuyadingeka futhi kunikela ekugcineni ukuthula, inhlalonhle, nokulingana phakathi kwabantu.

Ngakho uJesu wayesho ukuthini angahluleli? Uma simba ngokujulile emazwini kaPapa Francis, ngikholwa ukuthi sizoyithola incazelo yomyalo kaKristu.

 

IZINGXOXO

UPapa ubephendula umbuzo obuzwe yintatheli ngokuqashwa kukaMonsignor Battista Ricca, umfundisi obekade ethinteka ekubeni nobuhlobo bobulili namanye amadoda, futhi nakulokho obekuzwakala “ngendawo yokubungaza izitabane” eVatican. Odabeni lukaMsgr. URicca, uPapa uphendule wathi, ngemuva kophenyo lwezincwadi zeBhayibheli, abatholanga lutho oluhambisana nezinsolo abekwa zona.

Kepha ngithanda ukufaka enye into kulokhu: Ngiyabona ukuthi kaningi eSontweni, ngaphandle kwaleli cala futhi kulokhu, umuntu ubheka “izono zobusha”… uma umuntu, noma umpristi wezwe noma indela, lenze isono bese lowo muntu wahlangabezana nokuguquka, iNkosi iyathethelela futhi lapho iNkosi ithethelela, iNkosi iyakhohlwa futhi lokhu kubaluleke kakhulu ezimpilweni zethu. Uma siya ekuvumeni izono futhi sithi ngempela “Ngonile ngalolu daba,” iNkosi iyakhohlwa, futhi asinalo ilungelo lokungakhohlwa ngoba sibeka engcupheni yokuthi iNkosi ngeke izikhohlwe izono zethu, eh? —Salt & Light TV, Julayi 29, 2013; usawoti

Ukuthi umuntu ubuyini izolo akusho ukuthi bangobani namuhla. Akufanele sithi namuhla “unjalo futhi uphuzile” lapho mhlawumbe izolo, ezibophezele ekuphuzeni isiphuzo sakhe sokugcina. Yilokho futhi okushiwo ukungakwahluleli nokulahla, ngoba yilokho kanye okwenziwa abaFarisi. Bahlulela uJesu ngokukhetha uMathewu umthelisi ngokuya ngokuthi wayengubani izolo, hhayi ukuthi wayeba ngubani.

Mayelana nodaba lwendawo yokwamukela izitabane, uPapa uqhubeke wathi:

Ngicabanga ukuthi lapho sihlangana nesitabane, kufanele senze umehluko phakathi kweqiniso lokuthi umuntu uyisitabane neqiniso lendawo yokwamukela izivakashi, ngoba izindawo zokulobhela azizinhle. Zimbi. Uma umuntu eyisitabane futhi efuna iNkosi futhi inentando enhle, ngingubani mina ukuthi ngingahlulela lowo muntu? I- Catechism weSonto LamaKatolika ichaza leli phuzu kahle kodwa ithi… laba bantu akumele nanini babhekelwe phansi futhi “kumele bahlanganiswe nomphakathi.” —Salt & Light TV, Julayi 29, 2013; usawoti

Ingabe wayephikisana nemfundiso yeSonto ecacile yokuthi izenzo zobungqingili “ziphazamisekile ngaphakathi” nokuthi ukuthambekela kobungqingili ngokwako, nakuba kungesona isono, “kuyinkinga engaconsi phansi”? ^[3]Incwadi eya kubabhishobhi beSonto LamaKatolika Ngokunakekelwa Kwabefundisi Babantu Abangqingili, hhayi. 3 Yiqiniso, yilokho abaningi ababecabanga ukuthi wayekwenza. Kepha umongo ucacile: uPapa wayehlukanisa phakathi kwalabo abagqugquzela ubungqingili (indawo yokwamukela izitabane) kanye nalabo, naphezu kokuthambekela kwabo, bafuna iNkosi ngokuthanda kwabo. Indlela kaPapa yiyona efundiswa yiCatechism: ^[4]"… Isiko lihlale limemezela ukuthi "izenzo zobungqingili ziphazamisekile ngaphakathi." Ziphikisana nomthetho wemvelo. Basivala isenzo socansi kwisipho sempilo. Aziveli ekuhlanganisweni kwangempela okuhambisana nokuhambisana ngokocansi. Bangavunyelwa ngaphansi kwanoma yisiphi isimo. ” -Ikhathekizimu leSonto LamaKatolika, hhayi. 2357

Isibalo sabesilisa nabesifazane abanokuthambekela okujulile kobungqingili asibalulekile. Lokhu kuthambekela, okungahambisani kahle nomqondo, kwenza iningi labo libe yisivivinyo. Kumele zamukelwe ngenhlonipho, ngozwela, nangokuzwela. Zonke izimpawu zokubandlululwa ngokungafanele maqondana nabo kufanele zigwenywe. Laba bantu babizelwe ukufeza intando kaNkulunkulu ezimpilweni zabo futhi, uma bengamaKrestu, ukuhlanganisa umhlatshelo weSiphambano seNkosi ubunzima abangabhekana nabo kusuka esimeni sabo. -Ikhathekizimu leSonto LamaKatolika, hhayi. 2358

Kepha ungathathi izwi lami ngalo. UPapa uzichaze ngokwakhe kwenye ingxoxo.

Ngesikhathi sendiza ebuya eRio de Janeiro ngathi uma umuntu ongqingili enenhliziyo enhle futhi efuna uNkulunkulu, angiyena owahlulela. Ngokusho lokhu, ngasho okushiwo ikhathekizimu. Inkolo inelungelo lokuveza umbono wayo ngokusebenzela abantu, kepha uNkulunkulu endalweni usikhulule: akunakwenzeka ukuphazamisa ngokomoya empilweni yomuntu.

Umuntu wake wangibuza, ngendlela evusa inkanuko, ukuthi ngiyabamukela yini ubungqingili. Ngaphendula ngomunye umbuzo: 'Ake ungitshele: lapho uNkulunkulu ebheka isitabane, ingabe uyakuvumela ukuba khona kwalo muntu ngothando, noma amenqabe futhi amlahle lo muntu?' Kumele ngaso sonke isikhathi sicabangele umuntu. Lapha singena emfihlakalweni yomuntu. Empilweni, uNkulunkulu uhamba nabantu, futhi kumele sibapheleke, kusukela ezimeni zabo. Kuyadingeka ukuhambisana nabo ngesihe. —I-American Magazine, Septhemba 30, 2013, americamagazine.org

Lowo musho wokungahluleli eVangelini likaLuka wandulelwa ngamagama athi: “Yiba nomusa njengoba noYihlo osezulwini enesihe.” UBaba oNgcwele ufundisa ukuthi, ukwahlulela, kusho ukungamahluleli isimo senhliziyo noma somphefumulo womunye. Akusho ukuthi akufanele sahlulele izenzo zomunye umuntu ngokuthi zilungile yini noma cha.

 

UVIKELA WOKUQALA

Yize singanquma ngokungenaphutha ukuthi isenzo siphikisana nomthetho wemvelo noma wokuziphatha “oholwa yimfundiso enegunya leSonto,” ^[5]qhathanisa CCC,n. 1785 uNkulunkulu kuphela ongagcina enqume icala lomuntu ezenzweni zakhe ngoba Nguye kuphela “Ubheka enhliziyweni.” ^[6]isib. 1 Samuweli 16: 7 Futhi ukuba necala komuntu kunqunywa ngezinga abalandela ngalo unembeza. Ngakho-ke, nangaphambi kwezwi leSonto lokuziphatha…

Unembeza unguMmeli kaKristu ongowomdabu… Umuntu unelungelo lokwenza ngonembeza nangenkululeko ukuze azenzele izinqumo zokuziphatha.-Ikhathekizimu leSonto LamaKatolika, hhayi. 1778

Ngakho-ke, unembeza womuntu ungumxazululi wesizathu sakhe, "isithunywa saKhe, okuthi, ngokwemvelo nangomusa, sikhulume nathi ngemuva kweveli, futhi esifundisa futhi sisibuse ngabamele Bakhe." ^[7]UJohn Henry Cardinal Newman, "Incwadi eya kuMbusi waseNorfolk", V, Ubunzima obuthile obuzwa ngamaSheshi kwiCatholic Teaching II Ngakho-ke, ngoSuku Lokwahlulela, “uNkulunkulu uyokwahlulela” ^[8]isib. Heb 13: 4 thina ngokwendlela esisabele ngayo ezwini laKhe likhuluma kunembeza wethu nomthetho wakhe obhalwe ezinhliziyweni zethu. Ngakho-ke, akekho umuntu onelungelo lokwahlulela icala langaphakathi lomunye.

Kodwa wonke umuntu unesibopho sokwenza njalo yazisa unembeza wakhe…

 

IMVIKELI YESIBILI

Futhi kulapho kungena khona uMmeli “wesibili”, uPapa, ngokuhlanganyela nababhishobhi beSonto, abanikezwe “njengokukhanya emhlabeni,” ukukhanya kwethu nonembeza. UJesu wayala ngokusobala iSonto ukuthi lingagcini nje ngokubhabhadisa nokwenza abafundi, kodwa ukuthi lingene “Zonke izizwe… zibafundisa ukugcina konke engikuyale ngakho.” ^[9]isib. 28: 20 Ngakho…

ISonto linelungelo ngaso sonke isikhathi futhi yonke indawo ukumemezela izimiso zokuziphatha, kufaka phakathi lezo eziphathelene nokuhleleka komphakathi, kanye noku benza izahlulelo kunoma yiziphi izindaba zabantu kuze kube sezingeni lokuthi zidingeka ngamalungelo ayisisekelo omuntu noma ukusindiswa kwemiphefumulo. -Ikhathekizimu leSonto LamaKatolika, hhayi. 2246

Ngenxa yokuthi umsebenzi weSonto uthunywe ngokwaphezulu, wonke umuntu uzokwahlulelwa ngokwendlela asabela ngayo eZwini kusukela lapho, “Ekwakheni unembeza iZwi likaNkulunkulu lingukukhanya kwendlela yethu…” ^[10]Ikhathekizimu leSonto LamaKatolika, hhayi. 1785 Ngakho:

Unembeza kumele waziswe futhi kukhanyiswe ukwahlulela kokuziphatha. -Ikhathekizimu leSonto LamaKatolika, hhayi. 1783

Kodwa-ke, kusafanele sikhothame phambi kwesithunzi nenkululeko yabanye ngoba nguNkulunkulu kuphela owazi ngokuqiniseka ukuthi unembeza womunye wakhiwe ngezinga elingakanani, ukuqonda kwabo, ulwazi lwabo, kanye nekhono labo, futhi ngalokho baba necala, ekwenzeni izinqumo zokuziphatha.

Ukungamazi uKristu kanye neVangeli lakhe, isibonelo esibi esinikezwa abanye, ukugqilazwa izinkanuko zomuntu, ukugomela komqondo oyiphutha wokuzimela kukanembeza, ukwenqaba igunya leSonto nemfundiso yalo, ukuntuleka kwenguquko kanye nesisa senhliziyo: lokhu kungaba ngumthombo amaphutha wokwahlulela ekuziphatheni okuhle. -Ikhathekizimu leSonto LamaKatolika, hhayi. 1792

 

UKWAhlulela NGESIQEPHU

Kepha lokhu kusibuyisela esibonelweni sethu sokuqala lapho, ngokusobala, kwakulungile ukumemezela ukwahlulelwa kwesela lesikhwama semali. Ngakho-ke singakhuluma nini ngokungafanele ngokuziphatha okubi?

Impendulo ithi amazwi ethu kufanele alawulwe uthando, futhi uthando lufundisa ngamazinga. Njengoba nje uNkulunkulu ahamba ngamazinga ngamazinga kuwo wonke umlando wensindiso ukwembula imvelo yomuntu yesono kanye nesihe Sakhe Saphezulu, kanjalo futhi, ukwambulwa kweqiniso kumele kudluliselwe kwabanye njengoba kubuswa uthando nesihe. Izici ezinquma isibopho sethu somuntu siqu sokwenza umsebenzi wokomoya womusa ekulungiseni omunye zincike ebudlelwaneni.

Ngakolunye uhlangothi, iSonto limemezela ngesibindi nangokungabazeki “ukholo nokuziphatha” emhlabeni ngokusebenzisa ukusetshenziswa okungavamile nokujwayelekile kweMagisterium, kungaba ngemibhalo esemthethweni noma ngemfundiso yomphakathi. Lokhu kufana noMose ehla iMt. ISinayi futhi imane ifundela bonke abantu iMiyalo Eyishumi, noma uJesu ememezela obala, "Phendukani nikholwe yiZindaba Ezinhle." ^[11]Mak 1:15

Kepha uma kukhulunywa ngokukhuluma nabantu uqobo ngokuziphatha kwabo, uJesu, futhi kamuva nabaPhostoli, babekele amagama nezahlulelo eziqonde ngqo kulabo ababeqala ukubakha, noma ababesebakhe ubuhlobo nabo.

Ngoba kungani kufanele ngahlulele abangaphandle? Akuwona umsebenzi wakho ukwahlulela abangaphakathi? UNkulunkulu uzokwahlulela abangaphandle. (1 Kor 5:12)

UJesu wayehlale emnene kakhulu kulabo ababebanjwe esonweni, ikakhulukazi labo ababengalazi iVangeli. Wabafuna futhi, kunokuba alahle isimilo sabo, wabamema kokunye okungcono: “Hamba ungabe usona…. Ngilandele." ^[12]isib. Joh 8:11; UMathewu 9: 9 Kepha ngenkathi uJesu esebenza nalabo ayebazi ukuthi ufisa ubuhlobo noNkulunkulu, waqala ukubalungisa, njengoba enza izikhathi eziningi nabaPhostoli.

Uma umfowenu ekona, hamba uyomtshela iphutha lakhe, ninobabili naye kuphela (Math 18:15)

AbaPhostoli, bona, balungisa imihlambi yabo ngezincwadi eziya emasontweni noma mathupha.

Bazalwane, ngisho noma umuntu ebanjwe yisiphambeko esithile, nina abangokomoya kufanele nimlungise lowo ngomoya omnene, nizibheke nina, ukuze nina futhi kungahle kungalingwa. (Gal 6: 1)

Kwathi lapho kunokuzenzisa, ukuhlukumeza, ukungaziphathi kahle nemfundiso yamanga emasontweni, ikakhulukazi phakathi kwabaholi, bobabili uJesu nabaPhostoli basebenzisa ulimi oluqinile, baze basusa nesonto. ^[13]isib. 1 Khor 5: 1-5, Mat 18:17 Benza izinqumo ezisheshayo lapho sekucaca ukuthi isoni besiphikisana nonembeza waso onolwazi ukuze kulimaze umphefumulo waso, kuhlazise umzimba kaKristu, futhi kulinge ababuthakathaka. ^[14]isib. UMk 9: 42

Yeka ukwahlulela ngokubukeka, kepha yahlulela ngokulunga. (Johane 7:24)

Kepha uma kukhulunywa ngamaphutha ansuku zonke athwalwa ubuthakathaka bobuntu, kunokuba sahlulele noma sigxeke omunye, kufanele "sithwale imithwalo yomunye nomunye" ^[15]isib. Gal 6:2 ubathandazele…

Uma umuntu ebona umfowabo enza isono, uma isono singesiso esibulalayo, makathandaze kuNkulunkulu, khona uzakumnika ukuphila. (1 Johane 5:16)

Sizokhipha ugodo esweni lethu kuqala ngaphambi kokukhipha ucezwana kubafowethu, "Ngoba ngezinga owahlulela ngalo omunye uyazilahla wena, ngoba wena umahluleli, wenza zona lezo zinto." ^[16]isib. Rom 2: 1

Lokho esingenakukuguqula kithi noma kwabanye kufanele sikubekezelele ngesineke kuze kube uNkulunkulu ufisa kungenjalo ... Thatha izinhlungu zokubekezelela ukuthwala amaphutha nobuthakathaka babanye, ngoba nawe unezinto eziningi amaphutha abanye okufanele babekezelele… - UThomas à Kempis, Ukulingiswa KukaKristu, UWilliam C. Creasy, amakhasi 44-45

Futhi-ke, ngingubani ukwahlulela? Kungumsebenzi wami ukukhombisa abanye indlela eya ekuphileni okuphakade ngamazwi nangezenzo zami, ngikhuluma iqiniso ngothando. Kepha kungumsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ukwahlulela ukuthi ngubani ofanele leyo mpilo, nokuthi ngubani ongayifanele.

Uthando, empeleni, lushukumisela abalandeli bakaKristu ukuba bamemezele kubo bonke abantu iqiniso elisindisayo. Kepha kufanele sihlukanise phakathi kwephutha (okumele linqatshelwe njalo) nomuntu oyiphutha, ongalahlekelwa isithunzi sakhe njengomuntu yize eshaya phakathi kwemibono yenkolo engamanga noma enganele. UNkulunkulu yedwa ongumahluleli nomhloli wezinhliziyo; uyasinqabela ukuthi sikhiphe ukwahlulela ngecala langaphakathi labanye. —I-Vatican II, IGaudium et spes, 28
