ʻO ke kahua no ka hana keaka hope loa? ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻomākaukau ʻana no ia mea. Na Kai Mester

I ka hāʻule ʻana o ka Wall Berlin i ka makahiki 1989, ʻaʻole hiki iaʻu ke manaʻoʻiʻo. Ua hāʻule koʻu ʻike honua. ʻO ka ʻike honua ʻaʻole hiki iaʻu ke hoʻokuʻikahi me koʻu manaʻoʻiʻo i nā hanana hope loa mai ka Hōʻike ʻana no ka mea ʻaʻole i ʻae ke Kaua anu o ka honua bipolar i ka mana honua āpau e ka Antichrist. Ua ukali ʻia kēia e ka hāʻule ʻana o ka Soviet Union a me ka emi ʻana o ka komunisme mokuʻāina.

I ka hoʻopau ʻana o ka ʻaelike Pōʻalima maikaʻi i ka hakakā ʻino ma ʻIlelani ʻĀkau i ka makahiki 1998, kunou wale nō wau. Ua pau ke kaua hope loa ma waena o nā Katolika a me nā Perotesetane. Ua manaʻo ʻia kēia ma muli o nā wānana ma ka Hōʻike 13, kahi i hoʻolaha ʻia ai ke alakaʻi hoʻomana honua no nā mea a pau.

I ka hāʻule ʻana o nā mokulele i ka World Trade Center i ka makahiki 2001, ʻaʻole hiki iaʻu ke manaʻoʻiʻo hou. Aia au i ka kiʻiʻoniʻoni hewa? Ua haki koʻu ʻike honua. ʻO ka ʻike honua o kahi USA liberal, ʻaʻole hiki i kekahi ke hoʻohana maʻalahi no ka ʻōnaehana totalitarian o Revelation 13. Ua ukali ʻo Guantanamo a me ke kaua drone.

I ka haʻalele koke ʻana o Pope Benedict i ka makahiki 2013 a ua koho ʻia ʻo Pope Francis, ua kahaha ka honua: he Jesuit ma ke ʻano he Pope! A ua lawe maoli ʻo ia iā Roma i waho o ka haʻalulu me ka manaʻo ua hāʻule ʻo ia i lalo o Benedict ma muli o ka hōʻino ʻino. ʻO ke kiʻi ʻālohilohi o Francis i kēia manawa e hoʻomālamalama i ka manaolana i nā maka o nā mea he nui i waena o ka pupule politika o nā poʻo. Hoʻohanohano ʻia ʻo Francis e ka lehulehu o ka honua e like me nā pope ʻē aʻe, a ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o kāna mau haʻiʻōlelo i kekahi manawa a hohonu hoʻi ma mua o nā mea he nui o ko mākou kaiāulu.

A kēia manawa? ... 2017 e hiki mai ana ... Ke kūkulu nei ke kahua no nā hanana hope loa.

Ke hōʻike ʻia nei ke kiʻiʻoniʻoni Hacksaw Ridge ma nā hale kiʻiʻoniʻoni a puni ka honua. ʻO ka luna hoʻokele ʻo Mel Gibson he Katolika. ʻO Desmond Doss ka mea nui o ka kiʻiʻoniʻoni, ʻo ia wale nō ka Seventh-day Adventist a me ka mea hakakā ʻole i loaʻa ka Medal of Honor (1945), ka makana koa kiʻekiʻe loa ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa.

I ka manawa like, ke kūkulu ʻia nei ke aupuni hou ma lalo o Donald Trump i ka Hale Paʻa. ʻO kāna mau mea hilinaʻi pili loa a me nā lālā o ka ʻaha Kuhina no nā ʻekalesia mālama Sabati like ʻole (Greek Orthodox, Catholic, Reformed, Presbyterian, Methodist, etc.). Akā ʻo kekahi mea kū i waho: ʻO Ben Carson, ʻo Adventist lā ʻehiku, ka mea i loaʻa ka Medal of Freedom i ka makahiki 2008, ʻo ia kekahi o nā makana kīwila kiʻekiʻe ʻelua o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa.

ʻO ke kākāʻōlelo koʻikoʻi o Donald Trump, ʻo kāna mea hoʻolālā nui ʻo Stephen Bannon, ua aʻo ʻia e nā mōneka a loaʻa iā ia ke kēkelē laepua mai ke Kulanui ʻo Jesuit Georgetown. Ua wehewehe ka hope pelekikena o Trump iā ia iho he Katolika euanelio, he inoa i kūʻē ʻia i nā huaʻōlelo i kekahi manawa i hala.

I ka wā o ke koho balota, ua hoʻolaha ʻo Donald Trump i ka hoʻomana a me ka hoʻomana Kalikiano e pāʻani hou i ka politika. Ke ʻimi nei ʻo ia i ka lokahi me nā Katolika a me nā Euanelio.

Ke nānā aku nei kekahi mau ʻatikala i nā mea like like ma waena o Pope Francis a me Donald Trump. Ua kaulana lāua i ka poʻe maʻamau a hoʻoluliluli maoli i kā lākou mau hale kūʻai. E like me Luther, ʻōlelo lākou i ka ʻōlelo a nā kānaka a uhaʻi i nā kuʻuna lōʻihi ...

Ma 2017 e hoʻolauleʻa ai ka honua Kalikiano holoʻokoʻa i 500 mau makahiki o ka Reformation. Ma ʻOkakopa 31, 1517, ua kau ʻo Martin Luther i kāna mau theses 95 ma ka Halepule Kakela ʻo Wittenberg a lawe i ka Pope. Akā i kēia manawa ke hoʻolauleʻa nei ʻo Pope Francis! No ka mea, ke ʻimi nei ʻo ia i ka lokahi me ka hoʻomana Karistiano a pau.

ʻAe, he aha ke kahua! Ua kali ka mōʻaukala honua i kēia no ka manawa lōʻihi. Mākaukau mākou no nā hanana hou loa? ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo wale nō i nā mea liʻiliʻi e hoʻomākaukau iā mākou no kēia.

Ua ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻo Desmond Doss i kāna mau manaʻoʻiʻo a no laila ua lilo i kumu hoʻohālike no ka lehulehu. Ua hana ʻia ka moʻolelo ola o Ben Carson i kiʻiʻoniʻoni. ʻAʻole i hūnā ʻia kona hoʻohuli ʻana mai ka huhū wikiwiki i ke ʻano akahai me nā lima ʻokiʻoki akamai. Mai kēia manawa aku, aia paha ʻo ia i mua o ka lehulehu i ka manawa maoli e like me ka wā ma mua, ʻoiai ʻo ia wale nō ka mea ʻeleʻele i loko o ke keʻena Kuhina o Donald Trump a ʻo ia wale nō ka mea i ulu aʻe i kahi papa ʻilihune o ke kaiāulu.

Ina paha e hookoia ka olelo a Moredekai iloko ona: "Mai manao oe e hoola ana oe i kou ola no ka mea aia oe iloko o ka Aha Kuhina o ka Peresidena o Amerika, o oe wale no o na Adventista a pau. No ka mea, inā e noho mālie ʻoe i kēia manawa, hiki mai ke kōkua a me ke ola i ka poʻe Adventist mai kahi ʻē aʻe. Akā, e make ʻoe a me ka ʻohana o kou makua kāne. A ʻo wai ka mea ʻike inā ʻaʻole ʻoe i lilo i kuhina no kēia manawa?" (Esther 4,13:14-2017 Luther XNUMX paraphrase)?

E hana anei ʻo Ben Carson i kēia kuleana i ka hoʻokō eschatological o ka puke a ʻEsetera? E hōʻike ana nā makahiki ʻehā a ʻewalu paha.

ʻO Jared Kushner ka hūnōna kāne a Donald Trump mai kahi ʻohana Iudaio Orthodox. ʻO kāna wahine ʻo Ivanka ke kaikamahine kokoke loa iā Donald Trump. Ua huli ʻo ia i ka hoʻomana Iudaio ma mua o kona male ʻana, a ua kūpaʻa kona ʻohana i ka Sābati ʻaʻole lākou e kāhea a loaʻa ʻole i nā kelepona no 25 mau hola mai ke ahiahi Pōʻalima a hiki i ka pō o ka Pōʻaono a hāʻawi iā lākou iho i kā lākou mau keiki ʻekolu.

Hāʻawi kēia ʻano i ka nīnau eschatological Sābati-Sabati i mea hoihoi.

Ua ʻaneʻane ka manaʻo e hoʻomākaukau ana kahi alakaʻi akamai i ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni e hiki mai ana, ʻo kēia wale nō ke ʻano o nā mea a pau me he mea lā ʻaʻole ia he moʻolelo, ʻaʻole i ka wā i hala, akā he ʻoiaʻiʻo maoli.

I ka wā mua he mea hoʻohauʻoli a leʻaleʻa. Akā, e hiki mai ana ka manawa e leʻaleʻa loa ia i nā mea a pau o kēia ao - no kekahi ma hope koke aku, no nā mea ʻē aʻe ma hope - no ka mea, ua kokoke ke kanaka e hoʻolei i ka honua honua i ka pā.

No laila ke noi wikiwiki nei au:

E hoʻomaʻamaʻa iā ʻoe iho me ka ʻōlelo a ke Akua (ʻoi aku ka wānana Baibala); hoʻololi loa i kou ola inā he mau mea āu e hana kūʻē ai i kou lunamanaʻo; e ʻimi i ke Akua ma ka pule e ʻike a hoʻokō i kāu misionari pilikino (i kēlā me kēia pae); a e ala aʻe i kou hiki ke hoʻopōmaikaʻi piha i ke ʻano o ka mana a ke Akua i hāʻawi mai ai iā ʻoe! ʻO ka mea pāʻani no ka manawa ke holo nei ka pilikia o ka nalo ʻana i ke kaʻaahi a kauo i nā poʻe he nui i lalo me lākou i hiki ke hoʻopakele ʻia.
