Ibali leSan Giosafat
Ngo-1964, iifoto zamaphephandaba zikaPopu Paul VI ezamkela u-Athenagoras I, usolusapho u-Orthodox wase-Constantinople, waphawula inyathelo elibalulekileyo ekuphiliseni ukwahlukana kobuKristu okwadlula ngaphezulu kweenkulungwane ezilithoba.
Ngo-1595, ubishophu wama-Orthodox waseBrest-Litovsk kwi-Belarus yanamhlanje kunye nabanye oobhishophu abahlanu abamele izigidi zabantu baseRutheni bafuna ukudibana neRoma. UJohn Kunsevich, othe ngobomi benkolo wathabatha igama likaYehoshafati, ngewayebunikezele ubomi bakhe kwaye ngewayebulewe ngesizathu esinye. Wazalelwa kwiUkraine yanamhlanje, waya kusebenza eWilno kwaye waphenjelelwa ngabefundisi ababambelela kwiBrest Union ye-1596. Waba yimonki yaseBasilia, emva koko waba ngumfundisi, kwaye kungekudala waduma njengomshumayeli kunye nokuzincama.
Waba ngubhishophu waseVitebsk esemncinci kwaye wajamelana nemeko enzima. Uninzi lweemonki, lisoyika ukuphazanyiswa liturgy kunye namasiko, alufuni manyano neRoma. Ngee-sinodi, uqeqesho lwe-Katekisheni, uguquko lwabefundisi kunye nomzekelo wobuqu, nangona kunjalo, uYehoshafati waphumelela kwi-winSt
uninzi lwamaOthodoki kuloo ndawo kumanyano.
Kodwa kunyaka olandelayo kwasekwa isigqeba esiphikisayo, kwaye inani eliphikisayo lasasaza isityholo sokuba uYehoshafati "waba liLatin" kwaye bonke abantu bakhe kufanele ukuba benze njalo. Ayizange ixhaswe ngehlombe ngoobhishophu baseLatin basePoland.
Ngaphandle kwezilumkiso, waya eVitebsk, isekukuba yingxaki. Kwenziwe iinzame zokuvuselela inkathazo kunye nokugxothwa kwidayosisi: kwathunyelwa umfundisi ukuba amkhwaze kwintendelezo yakhe. Xa uYehoshafati wamsusayo kwaye wavalela endlwini yakhe, iqela eliphikisayo labetha intsimbi yeholo yedolophu kwaye isihlwele sahlanganisana. Umfundisi wakhululwa, kodwa amalungu esihlwele angena endlwini kabishophu. UYehoshafati wabethwa nge-halberd, emva koko wabethwa kwaye umzimba wakhe waphoswa emlanjeni. Kamva yafunyanwa kwakhona kwaye ngoku ingcwatyelwe kwiSt. Peter's Basilica eRoma. Wayeyingcwele yokuqala yecawa yaseMpuma ukuba yamkelwe yiRoma.
Ukusweleka kukaYehoshafati kwakhokelela kumbutho wamaKatolika nakubunye, kodwa impikiswano yaqhubeka kwaye nabaphikisi babenomfeli-nkolo. Emva kokwahlulwa kwePoland, amaRussia anyanzela uninzi lwabantu baseRutheni ukuba bajoyine i-Russian Orthodox Church.
Ukucingisisa
Imbewu yokwahlulwa yahlwayelwa ngenkulungwane yesine, xa uBukhosi baseRoma bohlulwa baba yiMpuma neNtshona. Ikhefu lokwenene lalibangelwe ngamasiko anjengokusetyenziswa kwesonka esingenagwele, ukuzila ukutya kwangoMgqibelo nokungatshati. Ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo ukubandakanyeka kwezopolitiko kwiinkokeli zonqulo kumacala omabini kwakubalulekile, kwaye bekukho ukungavumelani kwezimfundiso. Kodwa akukho sizathu sasanele ukuthethelela ukwahlukana okubuhlungu ebuKristwini, okwenziwa ngama-64% amaRoma Katolika, i-13% eMpuma - ubukhulu becala i-Orthodox - iicawa kunye ne-23% yamaProtestanti, kwaye oku xa Iipesenti ezingama-71 zehlabathi ezingezizo ezomKristu kufanele ukuba zibone ubunye kunye nothando olufana nolukaKristu kwicala lamaKristu!
