Abangcwele bayayiva imithandazo yethu kwaye bayasithethelela
Inkqubo yamaKatolika yokucela uncedo lwabangcwele icinga ukuba imiphefumlo ezulwini iyakwazi iingcinga zethu zangaphakathi. Kodwa kwamanye amaProtestanti le yingxaki kuba inika abangcwele amandla athi iBhayibhile lelikaThixo kuphela.IziKronike ze-2: 6 ifundeka ngolu hlobo lulandelayo:
Yiva ke ukuhlala kwakho usemazulwini, uxolele, ubuyisele elowo ngentliziyo yakhe, ngokuyazi kwakhe zonke iindlela zakhe (ngokuba nguwe wedwa ozaziyo iintliziyo zoonyana babantu);
Ukuba ibhayibhile ithi kuphela nguThixo owaziyo iintliziyo zabantu, iya kuqhubeka ke ingxoxo, ke ukuthandazwa kwabangcwele kuya kuba yimfundiso ephikisana neBhayibhile.
Makhe sibone indlela esinokuhlangabezana ngayo nolu celomngeni.
Okokuqala, akukho nto iphikisana nesizathu kwimbono yokuba uThixo angatyhila ulwazi lwakhe lweengcinga zabantu ezingaphakathi kwabo adale ingqiqo nabo. Nantsi indlela awaphendula ngayo uSt. Thomas Aquinas kulomceli mngeni ungasentla kwi-Summa Theologiae yakhe:
NguThixo yedwa owaziyo iingcinga zentliziyo: ukanti abanye bayazazi, ngokokuze kutyhilwe kubo, nokuba kungumbono wabo weLizwi okanye nangayiphi na indlela (iSuppl 72: 1, ad 5).
Qaphela indlela uAquinas awucacisa ngayo umahluko phakathi kwendlela uThixo azi ngayo iingcinga zabantu kunye nendlela abangcwele ezulwini abazazi ngayo iingcinga zabantu. NguThixo yedwa owaziyo "ngokwakhe" kwaye abangcwele bayazi "ngombono wabo weLizwi okanye nangayiphi na indlela".
Ukuba uThixo uyazi "ngokwakhe" kuthetha ukuba ulwazi lukaThixo lweentshukumo zangaphakathi zentliziyo kunye nengqondo zezakhe ngokwemvelo. Ngamanye amagama, unalo olu lwazi ngenxa yokuba enguThixo, uMdali ongekazalwa kunye nomondli wabo bonke abantu, kubandakanya neengcinga zabantu. Ngenxa yoko, akafanele ayifumane ngaphandle kwesizathu esingaphandle kwakhe. Ngumntu ongenasiphelo kuphela onokwazi iingcinga zangaphakathi zamadoda ngale ndlela.
Kodwa akukho ngxaki kuThixo ukuba atyhile olu lwazi kubangcwele ezulwini (nangayiphi na indlela) kunokuba atyhilele kuluntu ulwazi ngaye njengoBathathu Emnye wabantu. Ulwazi ngoThixo njengoBathathu Emnye yinto uThixo yedwa anayo ngokwemvelo. Abantu, kwelinye icala, bazi kuphela uThixo njengoBathathu Emnye kuba uThixo wayefuna ukumtyhila eluntwini. Ulwazi lwethu ngoBathathu Emnye lubangelwa. Ulwazi lukaThixo ngaye njengoBathathu Emnye aluthetheleleki.
Ngokunjalo ke, kuba uThixo ezazi iingcinga zabantu "ngeziqu zakhe," ulwazi lukaThixo lweengcinga zabantu alunasihlahla. Kodwa oku akuthethi ukuba akanako ukutyhila olu lwazi kwabangcwele ezulwini, kwimeko apho ulwazi lwabo lweentliziyo zangaphakathi zabantu luya kubangelwa. Kwaye kuba uThixo ngewayelubangele olu lwazi, sisengatsho ukuba nguThixo kuphela owazi iintliziyo zabantu-oko kukuthi, ubazi ngendlela engenasizathu.
UmProtestanti angaphendula athi: “Kodwa kuthekani ukuba wonke umntu osemhlabeni, entliziyweni yakhe, uthandaza ngaxeshanye noMariya okanye enye yeengcwele? Ngaba akuyi kufuneka ukwazi loo mithandazo kufuna ukwazi konke? Kwaye ukuba kunjalo, kuyalandela ukuba uThixo angabinakho ukunxibelelana nolu hlobo lolwazi kwingqondo edaliweyo. "
Ngelixa iBandla lingatsho ukuba uThixo unika abangcwele ezulwini amandla okwazi iingcinga zabo bonke abantu abaphilayo, akunakwenzeka ukuba uThixo enze njalo. Ewe ukwazi iingcinga zabo bonke abantu ngaxeshanye yinto engaphaya kwamandla endalo obukrelekrele obenziweyo. Kodwa olu hlobo lolwazi aludingi ukuqondwa ngokupheleleyo kokukaThixo, uphawu lwe-omniscience. Ukwazi inani eligqibeleleyo leengcinga akufani nokwazi konke okunokwaziwa malunga nobuthixo, kwaye ke ukwazi zonke iindlela ezinokubakho ezinokuthi zilinganiswe ngendlela yobuthixo.
Kuba ukuqondwa ngokupheleleyo kokukaThixo kungabandakanyeki ekwazini inani elilinganiselweyo leengcinga ngaxeshanye, akuyomfuneko ukuba abangcwele ezulwini bazi zonke ngaxeshanye izicelo zomthandazo zangaphakathi zamaKristu emhlabeni. Ukusuka koku kulandela ukuba uThixo unokunxibelelana nolu hlobo lolwazi kwizidalwa ezinengqondo. Kwaye ngokukaThomas Aquinas, uThixo ukwenza oku ngokunika "ukukhanya kobuqaqawuli obudaliweyo" okuthi "kwamkelwe kwingqondo edaliweyo" (ST I: 12: 7)
Oku "kudalwa kukukhanya kozuko" kufuna amandla angenasiphelo njengoko amandla angenasiphelo efuneka ukuyila kwaye ayinike abantu okanye iingelosi. Kodwa amandla angapheliyo akayomfuneko ukuba ubukrelekrele bomntu okanye beengelosi bufumane nje ukukhanya. Njengomxolisi uTim Staples uthi,
Ngethuba nje oko kufunyenweyo kungenasiphelo ngokwendalo okanye kufuna amandla angenasiphelo ukuqonda okanye ukubanako ukwenza, ngekhe kube ngaphezulu kwamandla abantu okanye iingelosi ukuzamkela.
Kuba ukukhanya okunikwa nguThixo kubukrelekrele obudaliweyo kuyadalwa, akuphelelanga kwindalo, kwaye akufuneki mda ungenamda wokuqonda okanye ukwenza. Ke ngoko, ayiphikisani nesizathu sokuthi uThixo unika oku "kudaleka ukukhanya kobuqaqawuli" ingqiqo yomntu okanye yeengelosi ukuba ngaxeshanye bazi inani elilinganiselweyo leengcinga zangaphakathi kwaye baphendule kuzo.
Indlela yesibini yokujongana nalo mngeni ungasentla kukubonisa ubungqina bokuba uThixo uyalutyhila ulwazi lwaKhe ngeengcinga zabantu zangaphakathi ukudala ubukrelekrele.
Ibali leTestamente eNdala kuDaniel 2 ngokubhekisele kuYosefu nokutolika kwakhe iphupha likaKumkani uNebhukadenetsare ngumzekelo. Ukuba uThixo angalutyhila ulwazi ngephupha likaNebhukadenetsare kuDaniel, ngokuqinisekileyo angazityhila izicelo zomthandazo wangaphakathi wamaKristu emhlabeni kwiingcwele ezisezulwini.
Omnye umzekelo libali lika-Ananiyas noSafira kwiZenzo 5. Sixelelwa ukuba emva kokuthengisa impahla yakhe, uHananiya, ngokwazi komfazi wakhe, wanika abapostile inxenye kuphela yaloo mali, nto leyo eyakhokelela ekuphenduleni UPeter: “Ananiyas, kutheni le nto uSathana eyigcwalisile intliziyo yakho ukuba uxoke kuMoya oyiNgcwele kwaye ugcine inxalenye yemali efumanekayo emhlabeni? "(V.3).
Nangona isono sika-Ananiyas sokunganyaniseki sasinomlinganiso wangaphandle (bekukho enye ingeniso awayigcinayo), isono ngokwaso sasingaxhomekekanga ekuqwalaselweni kwesiqhelo. Ukwazi ngobu bubi kufanele kufunyanwe ngendlela egqithileyo kwindalo yomntu.
UPetros ufumana olu lwazi ngokufakwa ngaphakathi. Kodwa ayisiyokwazi nje isenzo sangaphandle. Lulwazi ngeentshukumo zangaphakathi entliziyweni ka-Ananiyas: “Yini na ukuba usilele esi senzo entliziyweni yakho? Awuxokisanga mntu kodwa uxoke uThixo ”(v.4, ugxininiso longezwa).
IsiTyhilelo 5: 8 sisebenza njengomnye umzekelo. UJohn ubona "abadala abangamashumi amabini anesine", kunye "nezidalwa eziphilayo ezine", bequbuda "phambi kweMvana, elowo enehadi kunye nezitya zegolide ezizele sisiqhumiso, eziyimithandazo yabangcwele". Ukuba benza imithandazo yamaKrestu emhlabeni, kusengqiqweni ukucinga ukuba babenalo ulwazi ngaloo mithandazo.
Nokuba le mithandazo yayingeyomithandazo yangaphakathi kodwa yayiyimithandazo yomlomo kuphela, imiphefumlo ezulwini ayinazindlebe zomzimba. Ke naluphi na ulwazi lwemithandazo ayinikwa nguThixo ziingqondi ezidalwe ezulwini lulwazi lweengcinga zangaphakathi, ezibonakaliswa yimithandazo yomlomo.
Ngenxa yemizekelo engentla, sinokubona ukuba zombini iTestamente eNdala kunye neTestamente eNtsha zichaza ukuba uThixo uxela ulwazi lwakhe ngeengcinga zabantu zangaphakathi ukudala iingqondo, iingcinga zangaphakathi ezibandakanya imithandazo.
Eyona nto iphambili kukuba ulwazi lukaThixo lweengcinga ezingaphakathi zamadoda ayilulo uhlobo lolwazi oluza kuphela kwi-omniscience. Ingathunyelwa kubuhlakani obenziweyo, kwaye sinobungqina bebhayibhile bokuba uThixo uyalutyhila olu hlobo lolwazi kubuhlakani obenziweyo.
