Kungani sishada? Ngokomqondo kaNkulunkulu nalokho okushiwo yiBhayibheli
Ukuze ube nezingane? Ukuthuthuka komuntu siqu kanye nokuvuthwa kwezithandani? Ukuhlela izinkanuko zakho?
UGenesise usilethela izindaba ezimbili zokudala.
Esikhathini sakudala kunazo zonke (Gen 2,18: 24-XNUMX), isizungu esisele sonke sisivelisela imvelo yempilo ethuthumela. INkosi uNkulunkulu yathi: "Akukuhle ukuba umuntu abe yedwa: ngifuna ukumsiza njengaye." Siza ukwandisa isizungu somuntu. "Ngalesi sizathu indoda izoshiya uyise nonina ihlangane nonkosikazi wayo futhi laba bobabili babe nyamanye": umuntu oyedwa ongumzimba, ngakho-ke ukubumbana kwemicabango, izinhliziyo nemizimba kuzoba phakathi kwabo, ingqungquthela yabantu ephelele.
Kwenye enye indaba, muva nje noma kufakwe esahlukweni sokuqala sikaGenesise (1,26-28), indoda (eqenjini eliqoqayo elihlanganisa bobabili ubulili) kuvezwa njengomfanekiso kaNkulunkulu oyedwa kubantu abaningana, kaNkulunkulu okhuluma ngobuningi: Masenze umuntu ...; kuchazwa ngokuphelele njengama-halves amabili ahambisanayo: uNkulunkulu wamdala umuntu ngomfanekiso wakhe ...; owesilisa nowesifazane.
Ngakho-ke uNkulunkulu onguZiqu-zintathu udala umbhangqwana ongabantu wokuqasha: kuwo kuzokuzalwa uzalo kathathu (ubaba, umama, indodana) okuzosivezela ukuthi uNkulunkulu uluthando nothando lokudala.
Kepha kwakunesono. Ukuvumelana kobudlelwano phakathi kwabantu kubuye kuphakame emkhakheni wezocansi (Gen 3,7).
Uthando luguqulwa lube yi-concupiscence yezocansi, futhi injabulo eyisipho esivela kuNkulunkulu ayisakuphathi amandla, kepha ubugqila, okuwukuthi, ukuqina kwenyama (1 Jn 2,16: XNUMX).
Kulesi simo sokuphazamiseka kwemizwa nezinzwa, ukungathembani kocansi futhi cishe ukungalingani kobudlelwano bezocansi obusondelene noNkulunkulu kuyavela (Gen 3,10: 19,15; Ex 1; 21,5 Sam XNUMX).
I-Canticle of Canticles iyona ehloniphayo kunazo zonke, enkulu kunayo yonke, ithenda kakhulu, inethemba elikhulu kunazo zonke, inomdlandla kakhulu futhi inengqondo enengqondo ebhaliwe noma eshiwo ngomshado kuzo zonke izinto zayo ezingokomoya nezingokwenyama.
Yonke imiBhalo iveza umshado njengesimo sokugcwala kombhangqwana nezingane ezizalwa kuwo.
Umshado uyisibizo esikhulu futhi esingcwele uma siphilwa ngohlelo lukaNkulunkulu. Ngakho-ke iBandla elinesakramente lakhe lomshado liziveza kubashadikazi abashadayo, abashadikazi kanye nemindeni njengendlelana yabo engcono.
Ubumbano lo mbhangqwana, ukuthembeka kwawo, indissolubility yabo, injabulo yabo, akuyona imvelo, izithelo ezithandekayo nezilula zesiko lethu. Akunjalo! Isimo sezulu sethu silukhuni othandweni. Kunovalo lokwenza amaphrojekthi noma izinqumo ezizenza ngokungenakususwa impilo yonke. Injabulo, ngakolunye uhlangothi, isesikhathini sothando.
Umuntu unesidingo esikhulu sokwazi izimpande zakhe, nokuzazi yena. Lo mbhangqwana, umndeni uvela kuNkulunkulu.
Umshado wobuKristu, njengomuntu uqobo, ukwandiswa, ukuxhumana kwemfihlakalo kaNkulunkulu uqobo.
Kukhona ukuhlupheka okukodwa kuphela: lokho ngokuba wedwa. UNkulunkulu owayehlale engumuntu oyedwa wayeyohlala egcwele ukungajabuli okufanayo, onamandla futhi eyedwa, ochotshozwe yingcebo yakhe. Umuntu onjalo akakwazi ukuba nguNkulunkulu, ngoba uNkulunkulu injabulo ngokwayo.
Inye kuphela injabulo: leyo yothando nokuthandwa. UNkulunkulu uluthando, ubelokhu enjalo futhi edingeka njalo. Ubengahlali yedwa eyedwa, ungumndeni, umndeni wothando. Ekuqaleni wayekhona uLizwi, uLizwi wayekuNkulunkulu futhi uLizwi wayenguNkulunkulu (Joh 1,1). UYise, iNdodana noMoya oNgcwele: abantu abathathu, uNkulunkulu munye, umndeni owodwa.
UNkulunkulu-Uthando ngumndeni futhi wenze konke ngokomfanekiso wakhe. Konke kwenziwa uthando, konke kwenziwa umndeni.
Sifunde izahluko ezimbili zokuqala zikaGenesise. Kulezi zindaba ezimbili zokudala, owesilisa nowesifazane bahlangene bakha i-germ kanye nemodeli yobuntu njengoba uNkulunkulu eyifuna iyonke. Kukho konke akwenzayo ezinsukwini zokudala, uNkulunkulu wathi: Kuhle. NguNkulunkulu kuphela owathi uNkulunkulu: Akukuhle. Akukuhle ukuthi umuntu abe yedwa (Gen 2,18:XNUMX). Eqinisweni, uma umuntu eyedwa akakwazi ukufeza ukubizwa kwakhe njengomfanekiso kaNkulunkulu: ukuba nothando kubalulekile ukuthi naye akayedwa. Udinga umuntu ophambi kwakhe, ofanele yena.
Ukufanisa uNkulunkulu-Uthando, kuNkulunkulu umuntu oyedwa kwabathathu, umuntu kufanele enziwe ngababili abafanayo futhi ngasikhathi sinye esihlukile, abantu abalinganayo, olethwe umzimba nomphefumlo ngokubhekelela ngamandla wothando, ukuze babe munye nokuthi kusuka enhlanganweni yabo umuntu wesithathu, umntwana, angaba khona futhi akhule. Lo muntu wesithathu, ngaphezu kwabo, ubunye babo bokhonkolo, uthando lwabo oluphilayo: Kimi nonke, yimi kuphela, sonke sibabili enyameni eyodwa! Ngalesi sizathu, lo mbhangqwana uyimfihlakalo kaNkulunkulu, okuwukukholwa kuphela okungaveza ngokuphelele, okungukuthi yiBandla likaJesu Kristu kuphela elingagubha lokho eliyikho.
Kunesizathu sokukhuluma ngemfihlakalo yobulili. Ukudla, ukuphefumula, ukuhamba kwegazi kuyimisebenzi yezitho zomzimba. Ubulili buyimfihlakalo.
Manje singakuqonda lokhu: ngokuthatha imizimba yenyama, iNdodana ishada nobuntu. Ushiya uYise, athathe isimo somuntu: INdodana kaNkulunkulu kanye nendoda enguJesu waseNazaretha enyameni eyodwa, le nyama ezelwe yintombi enguMariya. KuJesu kukhona uNkulunkulu nomuntu wonke umuntu: unguNkulunkulu weqiniso nomuntu weqiniso, uNkulunkulu ophelele nomuntu ophelele.
Ubuhle bomshado bunguNkulunkulu nabantu, ngomzimba weNdodana yakhe. Nawu umshado, unonhlamvukazi omkhulu, ocacile, ocebile kakhulu othandweni. Ngenxa yomakoti wakhe, iNdodana yazinikela ekufeni. Ngaye uzinikela enhlanganyelweni ... Umbuso wezulu ufana nenkosi eyenzela indodana yakhe idili ... (Mt 22,2: 14-5,25). Madoda, thandani omkenu njengoba noKhristu alithanda iSonto futhi wazinikela ngenxa yakhe ... (Efe 33: XNUMX-XNUMX).
Yebo, iNkosi icela, ngeBandla, ukuthi amadoda nabesifazane bazinikele othandweni empilweni yabo yonke, ukuthi bamukela udumo nomusa ukusho futhi baphile lesi sivumelwano sikaKristu kweBandla lakhe, ngokuba yisakramente salo, uphawu olubucayi, olubonakala kubo bonke.
Ngemuva kwakho konke, lokho umuntu akulindele kowesifazane nowesifazane endodeni injabulo engapheli, impilo yaphakade, uNkulunkulu.
Akukho okuncane. Yiphupho elihlanya leli elenza ukuthi isipho sonke siphelele ngosuku lomshado. Ngaphandle kukaNkulunkulu konke lokhu akunakwenzeka.
