Yizwani izwi likaJehova nina nonke bakwaJuda
abangena kulawa masango ukukhonza uJehova!
Usho kanje uJehova Sebawoti, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli:
Lungisani izindlela zenu nezenzo zenu,
ukuze ngihlale lani kulendawo.
Ningabeki ithemba lenu emazwini enkohliso.
“Leli yithempeli likaJehova!
Ithempeli likaJehova! Ithempeli likaJehova!”
Kuphela uma ulungisa nokulungisa izindlela zakho nezenzo zakho;
uma yilowo nalowo kini enza ngokulunga kumakhelwane wakhe;
uma ungasamcindezeli umfokazi;
intandane, nomfelokazi;
uma ungasachithi igazi elingenacala kule ndawo.
noma nilandele onkulunkulu bezizweni kube ukunilimaza;
ngizohlala nawe kule ndawo,
ezweni engalinika oyihlo kusukela kudala kuze kube phakade. ( Jeremiya 7; ukufundwa kweMisa kokuqala kwanamuhla)
UMbuso wezulu ungafaniswa nomuntu
owahlwanyela imbewu enhle ensimini yakhe… uma nisiphula ukhula
ningase nisiphule ukolweni kanye nazo.
Yekani kukhule ndawonye kuze kuvunwe;
khona-ke ngesikhathi sokuvuna ngiyakuthi kubavuni.
“Buthani ukhula kuqala, nilubophe izinyanda ukuze lushiswe;
kodwa ubuthe amabele esiphaleni sami. ( Mathewu 13; IVangeli lanamuhla)
ISonto LamaKatolika […] lingumbuso kaKristu emhlabeni… —I-POPE PIUS XI, Ama-Quas Primas, Encyclical, n. 12, Dec. 11, 1925; cf. Ikhathekizimu leSonto LamaKatolika, hhayi. 763
Leli zwi lesixwayiso ngoJeremiya lingashiwo kalula kithi namuhla: vele ubeke igama elithi “ibandla” esikhundleni segama elithi ithempeli.
Ningabeki ithemba lenu emazwini enkohliso.
“Leli [ibandla] likaJehova!
[Ibandla] leNKOSI! [Ibandla] leNKOSI!”
Okungukuthi, iBandla alisona isakhiwo; akulona isonto lombhishobhi; akuyona iVatican. IBandla linguMzimba Oyimfihlakalo kaKristu ophilayo.
“Umlamuleli oyedwa, uKristu, owamisa futhi ohlale esekela lapha emhlabeni iBandla lakhe elingcwele, umphakathi wokukholwa, wethemba, nowothando, njengenhlangano ebonakalayo adlulisela ngayo iqiniso nomusa kubo bonke abantu.” IBandla empeleni elomuntu kanye nobunkulunkulu, liyabonakala kodwa linikezwe izinto ezingokoqobo ezingabonakali… -Ikhathekizimu leSonto LamaKatolika, hhayi. 771
Isithembiso sikaKristu sokuhlala neBandla “kuze kube sekupheleni kwezwe” [1]I-Matt 28: 20 akusona isithembiso ukuthi wethu izakhiwo iyohlala ngaphansi kweSibonelelo Saphezulu. Ubufakazi obucacile balokhu butholakala ezahlukweni ezimbalwa zokuqala zeNcwadi yeSambulo lapho uJesu ekhuluma namabandla ayisikhombisa. Nokho, lawo masonto awasekho namuhla emazweni asengamaSulumane ngokuyinhloko.
Njengoba ngihamba ngemoto nginqamula isifundazwe esihle sase-Alberta, eCanada, isimo sezwe sivame ukuphawulwa ngamasonto asezweni ake athandekayo. Kodwa eziningi zazo manje azinalutho, ziwela esimweni esibi (futhi eziningana zisanda kucekelwa phansi noma zashiswa phansi). ENewfoundland, eCanada, izinkantolo zisanda kugunyaza ukuthengiswa kwamasonto angu-43 amaKatolika ukuze kukhokhelwe ukukhokhelwa kwesimangalo sokuhlukunyezwa kwabefundisi.[2]cbc.ca Ukwehlisa ukubamba iqhaza e-United States naseCanada kubangela ukuvalwa nokuhlanganiswa kwezifunda eziningi. [3]npr.org Eqinisweni, ngokocwaningo luka-2014 lwe-Angus Reid National Household Survey, inani lokuya ezinkonzweni zezenkolo okungenani kanye ngonyaka lehle laya ku-21%, lisuka ku-50% ngo-1996.[4]thereview.ca Futhi njengoba ababhishobhi besayina abathembekile ngesikhathi sakamuva esibizwa ngokuthi “ubhubhane” ukuthi i-Ekaristi ibingabalulekile (kodwa “umgomo” ngokusobala wawunjalo), abaningi abakaze babuye, bashiye inqwaba yezihlalo ezingenalutho.
Konke lokhu kusho ukuthi ukhona zezakhiwo zethu ngokuvamile kuncike yethu ukwethembeka. UNkulunkulu akanandaba nokusindisa izakhiwo; Unentshisekelo yokusindisa imiphefumulo. Futhi uma iBandla lilahlekelwa umbono walowo msebenzi, ngokusobala, ekugcineni silahlekelwa izakhiwo zethu. [5]qhathanisa IVangeli Labo Bonke futhi Ukuphuthuma kweVangeli
… Akwanele ukuthi abantu abangamaKristu babekhona futhi bahleleke esizweni esinikeziwe, futhi akwanele ukwenza ubuphostoli ngesibonelo esihle. Bahlelelwe le njongo, bakhona kulokhu: ukumemezela uKristu kubantu abakanye nabo abangebona abaKrestu ngezwi nangesibonelo, nokubasiza ekwamukelweni ngokugcwele kukaKristu. - UMkhandlu Wesibili WaseVatican, Abezikhangiso, n. 15; v Vatican.va
Ukugcina i- isimo sezwe samanje ebuKristwini kufana nokuba sivivi. Eqinisweni, kwakukwelinye lalawo mabandla ayisikhombisa kusAmbulo lapho uJesu axwayisa khona:
Ngiyayazi imisebenzi yakho; Ngiyazi ukuthi awubandi futhi awushisi. Ngifisa sengathi ngabe uyabanda noma ushise. Ngakho-ke, ngenxa yokuthi usivivi, awushisi futhi awubandi, ngizokukhafula uphume emlonyeni wami. Ngoba uthi, 'Nginothile futhi nginjingile futhi angisweli lutho,' kodwa ube ungazi ukuthi ungolusizi, nosizi, umpofu, uyimpumputhe, futhi uhamba-ze. Ngikweluleka ukuthi uthenge kimi igolide elicwengisiswe ngomlilo ukuze ucebe, nezingubo ezimhlophe zokugqoka ukuze ubunqunu bakho obuyihlazo bungadalulwa, futhi uthenge amafutha okugcoba emehlweni akho ukuze ubone. Labo engibathandayo ngiyabakhuza ngibakhuze. Qiniseka ngakho-ke uphenduke. (IsAm. 3: 15-19)
Lokhu empeleni ukusola okufanayo uJeremiya akunikeza abantu besikhathi sakhe: ngeke siqhubeke nokucabangela ukuthi uNkulunkulu usekamu lethu—hhayi lapho ukuphila kwethu kungenakuhlukaniswa nomhlaba wonke; hhayi lapho iBandla lisebenza njenge-NGO yeNhlangano Yezizwe esikhundleni sokukhanya okuliqondisayo; hhayi lapho abefundisi bethu bethula lapho bebhekene nesono esimisiwe; hhayi lapho amadoda akithi eziphatha njengamagwala lapho ebhekene nobudlova; hhayi lapho sivumela izimpisi nokhula ukuba kukhule phakathi kwethu, zihlwanyela isono, ukungezwani, futhi ekugcineni, ukuhlubuka - futhi senze sengathi konke kuhamba kahle.
Okuxakayo ukuthi yilezi zimpisi kanye nokhula kukhona kuvunyelwe ngaphansi kwe-Divine Providence. Bafeza injongo: ukuhlola nokuhlanza, ukudalula nokuletha ebulungiswa baphezulu labo abangoJudasi eMzimbeni kaKristu. Njengoba sisondela ekupheleni kwalesi sikhathi, ngempela sibona ukuhluzwa okukhulu phakathi kwethu.
Yebo, kunabapristi, ababhishobhi, ngisho namakhadinali abangathembekile abahluleka ukugcina ubumsulwa. Kepha futhi, futhi nalokhu kubi kakhulu, bayehluleka ukubambelela eqinisweni lemfundiso! Baphazamisa amakholwa athembekile ngolimi lwabo oluyindida noluyindida. Bayaliphambanisa futhi balenze amanga iZwi likaNkulunkulu, bazimisele ukulisonta nokuligoba ukuze bathole ukwamukelwa yizwe. BangabaJuda Iskariyothe besikhathi sethu. —Ukhadinali Robert Sarah, I-Catholic Herald, Ngo-Ephreli 5th, i-2019
Kodwa futhi yizindimbane zabantu abavamile “ezingaziwa” eziphinde zikhaphele uJesu okulandelayo ku isimo sezwe samanje.
UJudas akayona ingcweti yobubi futhi akayena umuntu wobumnyama obudemoni kepha kunalokho uyisicophant ekhothama phambi kwamandla angaziwa okushintsha kwemizwelo nemfashini yamanje. Kodwa yiwo kanye lawa mandla angaziwa abethela uJesu esiphambanweni, ngoba kwakungamazwi angaziwa ayekhala athi, “Msuse! Mbethele! ” —I-POPE BENEDICT XVI, ukathine-sidive.com
Ngakho-ke, singena eNkathazweni yeBandla kanye noSuku lweNkosi, okuphinde kube yilolu suku Usuku Lobulungiswa - ukuhlanzwa komhlaba kanye neBandla ngaphambi kokuphela kwesikhathi.
Umhlaba wehlukaniswa ngokushesha waba amakamu amabili, ubumbano lokulwa noKristu nobuzalwane bukaKristu. Imigqa phakathi kwalaba ababili iyadwetshwa. -Inceku kaNkulunkulu uMbhishobhi Fulton John Sheen, DD (1895-1979)
Umphumela ngeke ube indawo ehlanzekile enezinqaba ezikhazimulayo ezikhuphuka ngaphezu komkhathizwe. Cha, kungase kungabi khona amatshe amatshe obuKristu okusamelwe kukhulunywe ngawo. Kunalokho, kuyoba Abantu abahlanziwe futhi abenziwe lula abayovuka lungekho ukhula. Ubhala umprofethi uJeremiya:
niyakuba ngabantu bami,
mina ngizakuba nguNkulunkulu wenu.
Bheka! Isivunguvungu sikaJehova!
Ulaka lwakhe luyaqhuma
esivunguvungwini esivunguzayo
eliqhuma phezu kwamakhanda ababi.
Ulaka lukaJehova ngeke luphele
aze enze ngokuphelele
izinqumo zenhliziyo yakhe.
Ezinsukwini ezizayo
uzokuqonda ngokugcwele. (Jer 30: 22-24)
IBandla lizoba lincane futhi kuzomele liqale kabusha kancane noma kancane kwasekuqaleni. Ngeke esakwazi ukuhlala ezindlini eziningi azakha echumeni. Njengoba inani labalandeli bakhe lincipha… Uzolahlekelwa amalungelo akhe amaningi omphakathi… Ngakho-ke kubonakala kuqinisekile kimi ukuthi iSonto libhekene nezikhathi ezinzima kakhulu. Inkinga yangempela ayikaze iqale. Kuzofanele sibheke ezinxushunxushwini ezisabekayo. Kepha ngiqinisekile ngokulinganayo ngalokho okuzosala ekugcineni: hhayi iSonto lenkolo yezepolitiki, eselivele lifile noGobel, kepha iSonto lokholo. Kungenzeka angabe esaba namandla amakhulu kwezenhlalo kuze kube sezingeni lapho ayekhona kuze kube muva nje; kepha uzothokozela ukuqhakaza okusha futhi abonakale njengekhaya lomuntu, lapho ezothola khona impilo nethemba ngale kokufa. —Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (IPOPE BENEDICT XVI), Ukukholwa nekusasa, Ignatius Press, 2009

Ngokwalokho okwaba Idayari Yokomoya, UJesu noMariya bafundisa u-Elisabethe, futhi bayaqhubeka nokuyala abathembekile kubuciko baphezulu bokuhlupheka ukusindiswa kwemiphefumulo.

labangcwele. Kwaze kwaba yilapho eba “yiNdodakazi kaMariya” lapho amaphupho amabi ekugcineni anqamuka eneminyaka eyishumi nanye. Ngonyaka olandelayo, uJesu waqala ukukhuluma naye ngaphakathi ngemuva kokuthola iSidlo Esingcwele. Lapho eseneminyaka eyishumi nantathu, Wabonakala kuye embonweni owabona kusuka kuvulandi wakubo. Lapho, emgwaqweni ongezansi, wabona isixuku namasosha ahlomile ahola iziboshwa ezintathu; wabona uJesu njengomunye wabo. Ngenkathi efika ngaphansi kompheme wakhe, waphakamisa ikhanda wamemeza: “Mphefumulo, ngisize! ” Ethinteke kakhulu, uLuisa wazinikela kusukela ngalolo suku kuqhubeke njengomphefumulo oyisisulu ngenhlawulo yezono zesintu.
isimo sokunganyakazi, esifana nobunzima esivele ngathi sife. Kwakungesikhathi lapho umpristi enza uphawu lwesiphambano emzimbeni wakhe lapho uLuisa abuye abuye nekhono lakhe. Lesi simo esimangazayo esimangalisayo saqhubeka kwaze kwaba sekufeni kwakhe ngo-1947 — kwalandelwa umngcwabo owawungeyona into encane. Ngaleso sikhathi empilweni yakhe, akazange agule emzimbeni (waze wahlaselwa yinyumoniya ekugcineni) futhi akazange abhekane nezinkinga zokulala, yize wayevalelwe embhedeni wakhe omncane iminyaka engamashumi ayisithupha nane.
