Ukuzindla kwanamuhla: UMariya neSonto
INdodana kaNkulunkulu iyizibulo phakathi kwabafowethu abaningi; ukuba munye ngokwemvelo, ngomusa uhlanganise abaningi, ukuze babe munye naye. Ngempela, "kulabo abamamukela wabanika amandla okuba babe ngabantwana bakaNkulunkulu" (Jn 1, 12). Kwathi eseyindodana yomuntu, wazala abantwana bakaNkulunkulu abaningi. Ngakho-ke uhlotshaniswa nabaningi, yena ohlukile othandweni nasemandleni akhe; futhi yize bebaningi ngesizukulwane senyama, bamunye naye kuphela ngesizukulwane saphezulu.
UKristu uhlukile, ngoba iNhloko noMzimba kwakha into eyodwa. UKristu uhlukile ngoba uyindodana kaNkulunkulu oyedwa ezulwini nomama oyedwa emhlabeni.
Kunezingane eziningi nengane eyodwa ndawonye. Impela, njengoba nje iNhloko namalungu behlangene beyindodana eyodwa nezingane eziningi, kanjalo noMariya neBandla bangomama oyedwa, abaningi futhi bayizintombi eziningi. Bobabili omama, bobabili abayizintombi, bobabili bakhulelwa ngoMoya oNgcwele ngaphandle kwenkanuko, bobabili banikela kuBaba izingane ezingenasono. UMariya ngaphandle kwesono wazala ikhanda emzimbeni, iSonto ekuthethelelweni kwazo zonke izono lazala umzimba ekhanda.
Bobabili bangomama bakaKristu, kepha akekho kubo owenza konke ngaphandle komunye.
Ngakho-ke ngokufanelekile emiBhalweni ephefumulelwe ngokwaphezulu okushiwo ngokujwayelekile ngomama oyintombi nto iSonto, kushiwo ngobunye ngomama oyintombi uMariya; futhi lokho okushiwo ngendlela ekhethekile kamama oyintombi uMariya, kumele kudluliselwe ngokujwayelekile kunina ongumuntu oyintombi nto iSonto; futhi okushiwoyo ngomunye walaba ababili kungaqondakala ngokungakhathali kwabo bobabili.
Ngisho nomphefumulo owodwa othembekile ungathathwa njengoMlobokazi weZwi likaNkulunkulu, indodakazi engumama nodadewabo kaKristu, intombi futhi ethelayo. Ngakho-ke kuthiwa jikelele eBandleni, ngendlela ekhethekile kaMariya, ikakhulukazi futhi ngomphefumulo othembekile, ngokuhlakanipha okufanayo kukaNkulunkulu okuyiZwi likaYise: Phakathi kwakho konke lokhu ngafuna indawo yokuphumula futhi ifa leNkosi ngazimisela lona (cf. Sir 24:12). Ifa leNkosi ngendlela ejwayelekile yiSonto, ngendlela ekhethekile uMariya, ngandlela thile yonke imiphefumulo ethembekile. Etabernakele lesizalo sikaMary Christ wahlala izinyanga eziyisishiyagalolunye, etabernakele lokholo lweBandla kuze kube sekupheleni komhlaba, ekwazini nasothandweni lomphefumulo othembekile ingunaphakade.
