UPapa Francis: Dumisani uNkulunkulu ikakhulukazi ngezikhathi ezinzima
UPapa Francis unxuse amaKhatholika ngoLwesithathu ukuthi adumise uNkulunkulu hhayi ngezikhathi zobumnandi kuphela, "kodwa ikakhulukazi ngezikhathi ezinzima".
Enkulumweni yakhe yezilaleli ngoJanuwari 13, uPope waqhathanisa labo abadumisa uNkulunkulu nabagibeli bezintaba abaphefumula umoya-mpilo obavumela ukuthi bafinyelele esiqongweni sentaba.
Uthe ukudumisa "akufanele kwenziwe kuphela uma impilo isigcwalisa ngenjabulo, kodwa ngaphezu kwakho konke ngezikhathi ezinzima, ngezikhathi zobumnyama lapho indlela iba umqansa wenyuka".
Ngemuva kokuthola lezi "zindima eziyinselele", uthe, sesiyabona "indawo entsha ebanzi".
"Ukuncoma kufana nokuphefumula umoya-mpilo omsulwa: kuhlanza umphefumulo, kusenza sibheke kude ukuze singaboshwa ngesikhathi esinzima, ebumnyameni bobunzima", echaza.
Enkulumweni yangoLwesithathu, uPapa Francis uqhubeke nomjikelezo wakhe wekhathekishi ngomkhuleko, oqale ngoMeyi waphinde waqala ngo-Okthoba ngemuva kwezinkulumo eziyisishiyagalolunye zokuphulukisa umhlaba ngemuva kwalobhadane.
Unikele izethameli emthandazweni wokudumisa, iCatechism yeSonto LamaKatolika eliwuthatha njengenye yezindlela eziyinhloko zokuthandaza, kanye nokubusisa nokukhuleka, isicelo, ukukhulumela kanye nokubonga.
Upapa wazindla ngendinyana evela eVangelini likaMathewu Ongcwele (11: 1-25), lapho uJesu asabela khona ebunzimeni ngokudumisa uNkulunkulu.
"Ngemuva kwezimangaliso zokuqala nokubandakanyeka kwabafundi ekumemezelweni koMbuso kaNkulunkulu, ukuthunywa kukaMesiya kudlula enkingeni," esho.
“UJohane uMbhabhathizi uyangabaza futhi umnikeza lo myalezo - uJohane usejele: 'Nguwe yini ozayo, noma sizolindela omunye na?' (UMathewu 11: 3) ngoba uzwa lolu sizi lokungazi noma ngabe unephutha yini esimemezelweni sakhe “.
Uqhubeke wathi: "Manje, kulo mzuzu odumazayo, uMathewu ulandisa iqiniso elimangazayo: UJesu akakhalanga kuYise, kepha kunalokho uphakamisa iculo lokuthokoza: 'Ngiyakubonga, Baba, Nkosi yezulu nomhlaba", kusho uJesu , "Ukuthi uzifihlile lezi zinto kubahlakaniphile nongqondongqondo wazambulela izingane" (uMathewu 11:25) ".
"Ngakho-ke, phakathi nenkinga, phakathi kobumnyama bomphefumulo wabantu abaningi, njengoJohane uMbhapathizi, uJesu ubusisa uBaba, uJesu udumisa uYise".
Upapa wachaza ukuthi uJesu wadumisa uNkulunkulu ngaphezu kwakho konke ngalokho uNkulunkulu ayikho: uYise onothando. UJesu wabuye wamncoma ngokuziveza "kwabancane".
“Nathi kumele sijabule futhi sidumise uNkulunkulu ngoba abantu abathobekile nabangenankinga bayalamukela ivangeli,” kusho yena. "Lapho ngibona laba bantu abalula, laba bantu abathobekile abahamba nohambo lokuya endaweni engcwele, abaya ukuthandaza, abaculayo, abadumisa, abantu okungenzeka baswele izinto eziningi kodwa ukuzithoba kwabo kubaholela ekudumiseni uNkulunkulu ..."
"Esikhathini esizayo somhlaba nasemathemba eSonto kukhona 'abancane': labo abangazibheki njengabangcono kunabanye, abakwaziyo ukulinganiselwa kwabo nezono zabo, abangafuni ukubusa abanye, abakuNkulunkulu uBaba, bayabona ukuthi sonke singabafowethu nodadewethu “.
Upapa ukhuthaze amaKrestu ukuthi aphendule "ekunqotshweni kwawo" ngendlela efanayo noJesu.
“Kulezo zikhathi, uJesu, owayetusa ngokuqinile umthandazo wokubuza imibuzo, lapho wayezoba nesizathu sokubuza uBaba izincazelo, waqala ukumdumisa. Kubukeka sengathi kuyaphikisana, kodwa kukhona, kuyiqiniso, ”kusho yena.
"Usizo lusizo kubani?" amasonto. “Kithi noma kuNkulunkulu? Umbhalo ovela emcimbini wokukhumbula uMthendeleko usimema ukuba sithandaze kuNkulunkulu ngale ndlela, uthi: “Noma ungadingi ukudunyiswa, nokho ukubonga kwethu uqobo kuyisipho sakho, ngoba izindumiso zethu azenezeli lutho ebuhleni bakho, kodwa basizuzisa ukusindiswa. Ngokudumisa, sisindisiwe ”.
“Sidinga umkhuleko wokudumisa. ICatechism iyichaza ngale ndlela: umthandazo wokudumisa 'wabelana ngenjabulo enkulu yabahlanzekile enhliziyweni abathanda uNkulunkulu ngokukholwa ngaphambi kokumbona enkazimulweni' ".
Upapa wabe esecabanga ngomthandazo kaSt. Francis wase-Assisi, owaziwa ngokuthi "yiCanticle kaMfoweth 'uSun".
"UPoverello akazange ayiqambe ngomzuzu wenjabulo, ngomzuzwana wenhlalakahle, kepha ngokuphambene nalokho, ngesikhathi sokungahambi kahle," echaza.
"UFrancis manje wayesecishe waba yimpumputhe, futhi wazizwa emphefumulweni wakhe isisindo sesizungu ayengakaze asithole: umhlaba wawungakashintshi selokhu aqala ukushumayela, kwakusekhona labo ababezivumela ukuthi bahlukaniswe izingxabano, futhi ngaphezu kwalokho, azi ukuthi ukufa bekusondela futhi kusondela. "
“Kungenzeka kube yisikhathi sokuphoxeka, sokudumazeka kakhulu nokubona ukwehluleka komuntu. Kepha uFrancis wathandaza kulowo mzuzu wosizi, kulowo mzuzu omnyama: 'Laudato si', Nkosi yami ... '(' Konke ukudumisa kungokwakho, Nkosi yami ... ') "
“Thandaza udumise. UFrancis udumisa uNkulunkulu ngakho konke, ngazo zonke izipho zokudala, nangokufa futhi, akubize ngesibindi ngokuthi 'ngudade' ”.
Upapa uphawule wathi: “Lezi zibonelo zosanta, amaKrestu, kanye noJesu, zokudumisa uNkulunkulu ngezikhathi ezinzima, zivula iminyango yomgwaqo omkhulu oya eNkosini, futhi usihlanze njalo. Ukudumisa kuyahlanza njalo. "
Ekuphetheni uPapa Francis uthe: "Abangcwele basikhombisa ukuthi singahlala sidumisa, ngokuhle noma ngokubi, ngoba uNkulunkulu ungumngane othembekile".
“Lesi yisisekelo sokudumisa: uNkulunkulu ungumngane othembekile futhi uthando lwakhe alusoze lwaphela. Uhlala eceleni kwethu njalo, usilindile njalo. Kuye kwathiwa: "Ngunogada osondele kuwe futhi okwenza ukuthi uye phambili ngokuzethemba" ".
"Ngezikhathi ezinzima nezimnyama, sinesibindi sokuthi:" Ubusisiwe wena, Nkosi ". Ukudumisa iNkosi. Lokhu kuzosisiza kakhulu ".
