Ibali likaSt Leo omkhulu
Ngokuqiniseka okukhulu kokubaluleka kukaBhishophu waseRoma eCaweni naseCaweni njengophawu oluqhubekayo lobukho bukaKristu emhlabeni, uLeo Omkhulu ubonakalise ukuzinikela okungapheliyo njengopopu. Wonyulwa ngo-440, wasebenza engadinwa "njengelandela likaPeter", ekhokela oobhishophu abangoogxa bakhe "njengabalingana kwi-episcopate nakubulwelwe".
U-Leo waziwa njengomnye woopapa abaphambili beCawa yamandulo. Umsebenzi wakhe uye wavela kwiindawo ezine eziphambili, ebonisa umbono wakhe woxanduva lukapopu kumhlambi kaKristu. Usebenze kakhulu ekulawuleni ubuqhetseba bePelagianism - egxininisa inkululeko yabantu - iManichaeism - ukubona yonke into njengobungendawo- nabanye, ngokubeka imfuno kubalandeli babo ukuze baqinisekise iinkolelo zobuKristu bokwenene.
Indawo yesibini ebalulekileyo awayeyixhalabele yayiyimpikiswano yezenkolo kwiCawa eMpuma, awathi wayiphendula ngeleta yakudala echaza imfundiso yeCawe kwindalo ezimbini zikaKristu.

Uyaziwa ngeentshumayelo zakhe ezinzulu ngokomoya. Isixhobo somnxeba wobungcwele, ingcali kwiZibhalo kunye nokwazisa ngecawa, uLeo wayenakho ukufikelela kwiimfuno zemihla ngemihla kunye nomdla wabantu bakhe. Enye yeentshumayelo zakhe isetyenziswa kwiOfisi yokuFunda ngexesha leKrisimesi.

Yiyo loo nto uLeo ekholelwa ngokuqinileyo ukuba yonke into ayenzayo nayithethayo njengopopu kulawulo lweCawa imele uKrestu, intloko yoMzimba Oyimfihlakalo, kunye neSt. Peter, endaweni yakhe uLeo wenza.
Ukucingisisa
Ngexesha apho kugxekwa ngokubanzi izakhiwo zeCawe, sikwava ukugxekwa koobhishophu nabefundisi - ngenene, sonke - banenkxalabo enkulu malunga nokuphathwa kwemicimbi yexeshana. UPopu Leo ngumzekelo womlawuli omkhulu osebenzise iitalente zakhe kwiindawo apho umoya nolwakhiwo zidibene khona ngokungenakulinganiswa: imfundiso, uxolo kunye nokhathalelo lwabefundisi. Uphephe "iingelosi" efuna ukuhlala ngaphandle komzimba, kunye "nokwenza" okujongana nabantu bangaphandle.
