Ukugcotshwa kwabagulayo: isakramente lokuphilisa, kepha kuyini?
Isakramente elaligcinelwe abagulayo lalibizwa ngokuthi "unction ngokweqile". Kepha ngamuphi umqondo? Ikhathekizimu yoMkhandlu waseTrent isinikeza incazelo engaphazamisi: "Lokhu kugcotshwa kubizwa ngokuthi" okwedlulele "ngoba kuqondiswa ekugcineni, ngemuva kokunye ukugcotshwa okunikezwe nguKristu eSontweni lakhe" njengezibonakaliso zesakramente. Ngakho-ke "ukusetshenziselwa ngokweqile" kusho lokho okuvame ukutholwa ngemuva kokugcotshwa kobhapathizo, ukuqinisekiswa noma ukuqinisekiswa, futhi okungenzeka kokugcotshwa kobupristi, uma umuntu engumpristi. Ngakho-ke akukho lutho oludabukisayo kuleli gama: unction ngokweqile kusho unction wokugcina, owokugcina ohlwini, owokugcina ngokulandelana kwesikhathi.
Kepha abantu abangamaKristu abengayiqondi nencazelo yekhathekizimu ngalo mqondo futhi bayeka nencazelo esabekayo yokuthi "unction ngokweqile" njengokugcotshwa okucacile okuvela lapho kungekho ndlela ebuyela emuva. Kwabaningi, ukugcotshwa okwedlulele kungukugcotshwa ekugcineni kwempilo, isakramente lalabo esezokufa.
Kepha lokhu akuyona incazelo yobuKristu iBandla elihlale linikeza ngalo lesi sakramente.
UMkhandlu Wesibili WaseVictoria uthatha ihlelo lakudala "lokugcotshwa kwabagulayo" noma "ukugcotshwa kwabagulayo" ukuze libuyele emasikweni futhi lisiqondise ekusetshenzisweni kwalesi sakramente nje. Ake sibuyele emuva emakhulwini eminyaka edlule, esikhathini nasezindaweni lapho amasakramente laqalwa khona.
Ukolweni, imivini neminqumo kwakuyizinsika zomnotho wasendulo, wokulima. Isinkwa sokuphila, newayini lentokozo nezingoma, uwoyela ukunambitheka, ukukhanyisa, umuthi, amakha, umpetha, ubukhazikhazi bomzimba.
Empucukweni yethu yokukhanya kukagesi nemithi yamakhemikhali, uwoyela uphelelwe amandla ngenxa yokuhlonishwa kwawo kwangaphambili. Kodwa-ke, siyaqhubeka nokuzibiza ngamaKristu, igama elisho ukuthi: labo abathole ukugcotshwa uwoyela. Ngakho-ke, sikubona ngokushesha ukubaluleka ukuthi imicikilisho yokugcotshwa inamuphi umKristu: kungumbuzo wokubonisa ukuhlanganyela kwethu kuKristu (Ogcotshiweyo) ngokunembile kulokho okumchazayo.
Amafutha, ngakho-ke, ngokusetshenziselwa isiko lamaSemite, azosala kithina maKhristu ngaphezu kwakho konke uphawu lokuphulukiswa nokukhanya.
Ngezici zayo ezenza kube nzima, ukungena futhi kuvuselele, kuzobuye kube wuphawu loMoya oNgcwele.
Amafutha phakathi kwabantu bakwa-Israyeli ayenomsebenzi wokunikezela abantu nezinto. Masikhumbule isibonelo esisodwa: ukunikezelwa kweNkosi uDavide. "USamueri wathatha uphondo lwamafutha walungcwelisa ngokugcotshwa kwabafowabo futhi uMoya weNkosi waphumula kuDavide kusukela ngalolo suku kuya phambili" (1 Sam 16,13: XNUMX).
Ekugcineni, ekuphakeme kwakho konke esikubonayo umuntu onguJesu, kungenwe ngokuphelele nguMoya oNgcwele (Izenzo 10,38: XNUMX) ukufaka umhlaba kaNkulunkulu futhi uwusindise. NgoJesu amafutha angcwele axhumana namaKristu ngomusa ohlanganisiwe woMoya oNgcwele.
Ukugcotshwa kwabagulayo akuyona inkambiso yokunikezela, efana naleyo yokubhabhadiswa nokuqinisekiswa, kepha kubonisa ukuphulukiswa okungokomoya nokwenziwa nguKhristu ngeBandla lakhe. Ezweni lasendulo, uwoyela kwakuwumuthi owawuvame ukusetshenziswa emanxebeni. Ngakho-ke, uzokhumbula umSamariya omuhle womzekeliso weVangeli othulula emanxebeni alowo owahlaselwa ngamabhulukwe ewaini ukuze abulale amagciwane nawoyela ukuzolisa izinhlungu zawo. INkosi iphinda futhi ithathe isenzo sokuphila kwansuku zonke nokukhonkolo (ukusetshenziswa kokwenza kawoyela) ukukuthatha njengomsebenzi ohlelekile wokuphilisa abagulayo kanye nokuthethelelwa kwezono. Kulesi sakramente, ukuphulukiswa nokuxolelwa kwezono kuhlangene. Ngabe lokhu kusho ukuthi isono nesifo kuhlobene, unobuhlobo phakathi kwabo? Umbhalo wethula ukufa kithi njengoba kuxhunyaniswe nesimo sesono semihlobo yabantu. Encwadini kaGenesise, uNkulunkulu uthi kumuntu: "Ungadla kuyo yonke izihlahla zasensimini, kepha ungadli emthini wolwazi lokuhle nokubi, ngoba lapho usudlile, uzokufa nakanjani" (Gen 2,16 17-5,12). Lokhu kusho ukuthi umuntu, ngemvelo yakhe engaphansi komjikelezo wokuzalwa - ukukhula - ukufa njengazo zonke ezinye izidalwa eziphilayo, wayezoba nelungelo lokuphunyuka kuwo ngokuthembeka kwakhe ebizweni lakhe laphezulu. USt. Paul uyacacisa: lo mbhangqwana ongazwani, isono nokufa, wangena ezweni labantu bebambene: “Njengoba ngenxa yomuntu oyedwa isono sangena emhlabeni futhi ngesono ukufa, kanye Ukufa kufikile kubo bonke abantu, ngoba bonke bonile ”(Roma XNUMX:XNUMX).
Manje, ukugula kuyisandulela, eduze noma kude, kumashi womngcwabo wokufa. Ukugula, njengokufa, kuyingxenye yombuthano kaSathane. Njengokufa, ukugula nakho kunezinga lokuhlangana nesono. Lokhu akusho ukuthi umuntu uyagula ngoba yena uqobo wamcasula uNkulunkulu .uJesu uqobo ulungisa lo mbono. Sifunda eVangelini likaJohane: "(UJesu) edlula wabona umuntu owayeyimpumputhe kusukela azalwa futhi abafundi bakhe bambuza:" Rabi, ngubani owonile, yena noma abazali bakhe, kungani azalwe eyimpumputhe? ". UJesu waphendula wathi: "Akonanga yena noma abazali bakhe, kepha le ndlela imisebenzi kaNkulunkulu yabonakaliswa kuye" (Jn 9,1: 3-XNUMX).
Ngakho-ke, siyaphinda: umuntu akaguli ngoba azicasulile uNkulunkulu (ngaphandle kwalokho izifo nokufa kwezingane ezingenacala bekungeke kuchazwe), kepha sifuna ukusho ukuthi lesi sifo esifana nokufa sifinyelela futhi sithinta umuntu kuphela ngoba ubuntu bukhona isimo sesono, sisesimweni sesono.
Amavangeli amane asiveza ngoJesu ophilisa abagulayo. Ngokumenyezelwa kwegama, lo ngumsebenzi waso. Ukukhululeka ebubini babantu abaningi abangajabuli ukumenyezelwa kwezindaba ezinhle. UJesu ubaphulukisa ngenxa yothando nesihawu, kodwa futhi, futhi ngaphezu kwakho konke, ukunikeza izimpawu zokufika kombuso kaNkulunkulu.
Ngokungena kukaJesu enkundleni, uSathane uphawula ukuthi sekufikile umuntu onamandla kunaye (Lk 11,22:2,14). Weza "ukuzokwehlisa ukungabi namandla ngokufa yena onamandla okufa, okungukuthi, uDeveli" (Heb XNUMX: XNUMX).
Ngisho nangaphambi kokuba afe nokuvuka kwakhe, uJesu wenza ukuba ukufa kube lula, ephulukisa abagulayo: umdanso wenjabulo wabaphilayo uqala ekuvuthweni kweziqhwala nabakhubazekile baphulukiswe.
IVangeli, ngamandla, lisebenzisa isenzo ukuze liphinde livuke ukukhombisa lokho kuphulukiswa okuyindlela eyandulela uvuko lukaKristu.
Ngakho-ke isono, ukugula nokufa konke kuyimpuphu yesaka likaDeveli.
USt. Peter, enkulumweni yakhe endlini kaKornelius, ugcizelela iqiniso lalezi ziphazamiso: "uNkulunkulu wagcotshwa ngoMoya oNgcwele namandla uJesu waseNazaretha, owadlula ngokuthola usizo futhi ephulukisa bonke ababengaphansi kwamandla kaDeveli, ngoba uNkulunkulu naye ... Base bembulala ngokumlengisa esiphambanweni, kepha uNkulunkulu wamvusa ngosuku lwesithathu ... Yilowo nalowo okholwa kuye uthola ukuxolelwa kwezono ngegama lakhe "(Izenzo 10,38-43).
Esenzweni nasekufeni kwakhe okunamandla onke, uKristu uphonsa isikhulu salomhlaba emhlabeni (Jn 12,31: 2,1). Ngalo mbono singayiqonda incazelo eyiqiniso nejulile yazo zonke izimangaliso zikaKristu nezabafundi bakhe kanye nomqondo wesakramente lokugcotshwa kwabagulayo okungelutho ngaphandle kokuba khona kukaKristu oqhubeka nomsebenzi wakhe wokuthethelela nokwelapha ngokusebenzisa iSonto lakhe. Ukuphiliswa komuntu okhubazekile waseKapernawume yisibonelo esiveza leli qiniso. Sifunda iVangeli likaMarku esahlukweni sesibili (Mk 12: XNUMX-XNUMX).
Ukuphiliswa kwalowo ongajabuli kuqokomisa izimangaliso ezintathu zikaNkulunkulu:
1 - kunobudlelwano obusondelene phakathi kwesono nezifo. Umuntu ogulayo ulethwa kuJesu futhi uJesu uxilonga ngokujulile: uyisoni. Futhi iyemula le nduku yobubi nesono hhayi ngamandla obuciko bezokwelapha, kodwa ngegama layo eliyingqayizivele elichitha isimo sesono kuleya ndoda. Ukugula kwangena ezweni ngenxa yesono: ukugula nesono kunyamalala ndawonye ngamandla kaKristu;
2 - Ukwelapha umuntu okhubazekile kunikelwa nguJesu njengobufakazi bokuthi unamandla okuthethelela izono, okungukuthi, ukuphulukisa umuntu futhi ngokomoya: nguye ophilisa wonke umuntu;
I-3 - lesi simangaliso sibuye simemezela iqiniso elikhulu lesikhathi esizayo: umsindisi uzoletha ukubuyiselwa okucacayo kubo bonke ububi obungokwenyama nobokuziphatha kubo bonke abantu.
