Indawo yezitabane nobuphekula ngokombono weBhayibheli. Ibhalwe nguKai Mester

Ukubulawa kwabantu abaningi e-Orlando kwenza abantu badabuke futhi bacabange. U-Omar Mateen wabulala abantu abangu-12 ngesibhamu futhi walimala abangu-2016 endaweni yezitabane eFlorida ngoJuni 49, 53, ngaphambi kokuba amaphoyisa amdubule. Uthe uthembekile ku-Islamic State (IS) ngokushayela amaphoyisa ucingo, nakuba kubonakala sengathi "wayeyimpisi eyedwa" eyazenza ngokwedlulele ku-inthanethi.

Ukuhlangana phakathi kobungqingili nobuphekula bama-Islamist kuletha izindaba ezimbili ezinkulu zesikhathi sethu eduze futhi kuphakamisa imibuzo: Yiziphi izisusa ezigqugquzela abantu ukuba bazonde futhi bahlukumeze ongqingili? Sizozama kanjani ukuvimbela kangcono ukuhlaselwa okunjalo esikhathini esizayo? Iziphi izimpendulo iBhayibheli elizinikezayo ngokuphathelene nobungqingili nabantu ababenzayo? Beliyini icebo likaNkulunkulu ngobulili bomuntu? Lesi sihloko siphendula le mibuzo neminye.

Izithombe zezitha: AmaSulumane kanye nongqingili

Ngenkathi u-Anders Breivik edubula abantu abangu-2011 esiqhingini sase-Utøya eNorway ngo-77, isitha sakhe kwakuyi-Islam futhi ukukhathazeka kwakhe kwakuwukumisa "ukungena ngobuningi bamaSulumane" eYurophu. Okungenani kusukela igagasi lababaleki ehlobo lika-2015, lesi sithombe sesitha siqhube abantu baseYurophu abaningi emigwaqweni ukuze bafinyelele umgomo ofanayo ngendlela engenalo udlame.

U-Omar Mateen wayengumfanekiso wasendulo walesi sithombe sesitha. Ukuze kuvinjelwe ukuhlasela kwamaphekula okunjalo, bafuna amaSulumane ahlale emazweni abo. U-Omar Mateen wakhomba isibhamu sakhe kubantu abafana noBreivik. Kodwa ngezindlela ezihluke ngokuphelele. Babengabantu ababebhekwa njengosongo hhayi eMpumalanga kuphela kodwa naseNtshonalanga yizingxenye ezithile zomphakathi ngoba babemelela ushintsho olusha ezimisweni zokuziphatha: ongqingili. Kungani zibhekwa njengosongo? Ngoba bayangabaza ukuthi yini eyayiyiqiniso ngenzalo ka-Abrahama engokwenyama nengokomoya izinkulungwane zeminyaka, okungukuthi izingane zikhula noyise ozala nomama ozalayo abaye bavuma komunye nomunye ngaphambili “nize nihlukane ukufa.” Namuhla, ongqingili bangamavulandlela obunikazi bobulili obukhethwa ngokukhululekile, obushintshayo obunezinguquko eziningi zozakwethu ohamba ngezinyawo phakathi nosuku olulodwa. Zombili ziya ngokuya zithandwa futhi zicishe zikhazinyuliswe kwabezindaba. Ngakho-ke lokhu kuchithwa kwegazi kwakungenxa yesitha sesitabane.

Lesi sithombe sesitha sidala, okungenani sidala njengenzalamizi, amaSulumane azibona efeni lawo futhi ukholo lwawo alwamukele. Kwakuyinzalamizi u-Abrahama okwathi ngemva kweMpi YaseSidimi, wakhulula izakhamuzi zasemizini yaseSodoma naseGomora ekuthunjweni ngenxa yokuthi umshana wakhe uLoti wayephakathi kwabo. Lawa madolobha ayaziwa ngokuvumela kwawo ubulili futhi, ngaphezu kwakho konke, ubungqingili bawo, yingakho agcina eshabalala endaweni eshisayo. Kuze kube namuhla, ubungqingili busabizwa ngokuthi “isodomy” ezilimini eziningi.

Inzondo ka-Omar Mateen yayiqondiswe kubantu abanjalo, imimoya yanamuhla eyizihlobo zaseSodoma. Kodwa akayedwa. Amazwi omshumayeli wamaBaptisti uRoger Jimenez waseSacramento nawo ayebhekiswe kulaba bantu. Wathi entshumayelweni yakhe yangeSonto: “Okubuhlungu ukuthi abaningi babo abashonanga... Okungicasulayo ukuthi akakwazanga ukuqeda umsebenzi wakhe... NjengamaKristu, akufanele sidabuke ngokuthi abantu Ukufeba okungekhona okwemvelo, ukufa... Ngifisa sengathi uhulumeni angabaqoqa bonke, abamise odongeni, futhi abe nethimba labadubuli elibadubule ngenhlamvu emakhanda abo."

Eshu! Imuphi umfundi kaJesu ongavumelana nala mazwi? Nokho, iningi alifuni izinyathelo ezinjalo ezinkulu. Bancamela ukushiya lezi zenzo zonya baye eSahlulelweni Sokugcina. Kodwa isilungiselelo esiyisisekelo?

Kunoma yikuphi, amaphekula namaKristu eBhayibheli ngokuzumayo baba nesitha esivamile. Noma ukukubeka ngenye indlela: Imithombo yezindaba eyaziwayo inethuba lokufaka ilebula ekhabetheni ngamagama angukhiye ahlukahlukene asebenza ngokulinganayo kumaphekula kanye namaKristu eBhayibheli. I-Homophobia akuyona into kuphela lapho.

Intuthuko yesikhathi sokuphela: inkululeko nokwethenjwa kuya ngokuya kuncipha

Kusukela ngomhlaka-11 Septhemba, kuye kwaqashelwa ukuthi umhlaba wonke uphasisa kanjani imithetho empini yokulwa nobushokobezi evimbela ngokwengeziwe inkululeko yomuntu ngamunye futhi yenze isimo esivela ekwambulweni sibe nokwenzeka. IsAmbulo siprofetha ukuthi iqembu labantu laliyochayeka ekubandlululweni okunzima okungokwenkolo emhlabeni wonke ngaphambi nje kokubuya kukaJesu. Babengeke besakwazi ukuthenga nokudayisa. Ngenxa yama-smartphones, lokhu sekuyinto engenzeka kakhulu namuhla. Ekugcineni bayobhekana nesigwebo sokufa (IsAmbulo 13,16.17:XNUMX, XNUMX)

Ukuze uvimbele ukuhlaselwa yizimpisi zodwa, wonke umuntu kufanele afungelwe ukubika izibalo ezisolisayo endaweni noma phakathi kwabangane nomndeni kusenesikhathi. Asikho esinye isivikelo. Ngoba amaphekula anjalo angenza ngokuzumayo ngaphandle kokubonisana nabanye. Izikhathi ze-NSDAP ne-Stasi zizobuya maduze. Masikhulume iqiniso: I-Facebook namanye amanethiwekhi yenze ukuhlola nokulalela kucishe kungadingeki! Sesivele silenga kukho konke ngokwethu.

Noma ubani okusolwa ukuthi angaba amaphekula noma, esinyathelweni sesibili, sokusakaza okuqukethwe kuyi-Internet okungase kushukumise umphefumulo wempisi eyedwa ukuba yenze ukuhlasela kwamaphekula angase azwe amandla ale mithetho. Ukusesha ekhaya, ukuboshwa, nokuhoxiswa kwesitokisi ngaphandle kokuqulwa kwecala kungaba izibonelo ezintathu ezingaba khona.

Ukuzondwa kwabantu abathandanayo kwamaKristu kwabuzwa

Kodwa okungikhathazayo ngempela isimo sethu sengqondo sama-Adventist ngobungqingili. Ingabe ngempela siyabazonda ongqingili njengalowo mshumayeli wamaBaptisti? Noma ingabe iBhayibheli lisinikeza isibonelo esihlukile sokuhlukanisa ubungqingili ngokwengqondo nangokomzwelo?

“Uma uNkulunkulu engayijezisi iMelika manje, kuzodingeka axolise eSodoma naseGomora,” kuthiwa umkaBilly Graham wake washo. Ingabe ubuphekula mhlawumbe ekugcineni buwubulungisa abaningi asebebulindile isikhathi eside kangaka? Azikho yini izitatimende zika-Ellen White ezichaza ukuhlasela kwamaphekula njengesibikezelo sesahlulelo sokugcina sobugebengu? Kunoma yikuphi, ukhuluma ngokuwa kwamabhilidi eNew York kanye nokuzikhukhumeza kwabakhi bawo. Isixwayiso kumabhange kanye nabaphathi bamabhizinisi? Futhi manje Orlando. Ingabe kuyisixwayiso esigcawini sezitabane, esesiqala ukuzethemba futhi esifuna ngamandla? Ngalesi sixwayiso saphezulu, singasebenzisa ukunengeka kobuKristu kanye nenzondo ngokumelene nongqingili nayo yonke into? Umphakathi we-LGBT thethelela?

Unya lweBhayibheli

Ubungqingili bubhekwa njengesono esibi kumaKristu amaningi. Futhi ngempela, imibhalo ayinakuphikiswa: “Ungalali nendoda njengokulala nowesifazane, ngokuba lokho kuyisinengiso.” Nokho, kanye nokulala nesihlobo, ubulili nezilwane nemihlatshelo yabantu, ukuphinga okujwayelekile nakho kubhekwa njengokunye izenzo zonya ezibalwe esahlukweni esifanayo ( Levitikusi 3:18,22.26.27.29, 5, 12,31, XNUMX; Duteronomi XNUMX:XNUMX ). Ngokumangalisayo, amaKristu amaningi ajwayele ukuphinga ngokomzwelo kunezono zobungqingili. Kuyamangaza, ngoba umuntu akufanele neze ajwayele ukona futhi futhi ngenxa yokuthi akulungile ukubuka isono esithile, okuyinto ngokwemvelo ephikisana nokusanhlamvu kwami, ngokunengeka okukhulu.

Izono ezimbi kakhulu zihlanganisa transvestism kanye travesty. Yebo, mhlawumbe lapha futhi imfashini idlala umdlalo onengxenye enkulu yomphakathi: “Owesifazane akufanele agqoke izingubo zamadoda, nendoda akufanele igqoke izingubo zabesifazane; ngoba jetNoma ubani owenza lokhu uyisinengiso kuJehova uNkulunkulu wakho.” ( Duteronomi 5:22,5 ) Akukho muntu onyakaziswayo uma kuziwa kwabesifazane abagqoke okwabesilisa. Maduzane isimo esiphambene ngeke siphinde senze noma ubani ashaye ijwabu leso. I-czars yemfashini isivele iphumelele kuze kube manje. Lapho imfashini yabesifazane ishintsha, imfashini entsha yamadoda ngezinye izikhathi ifana ngokumangalisayo nemfashini yangaphambili yabesifazane, ukuze amehlo abobulili obuhlukile balahleke. Ukuqondana noma ukuhlela?

Kanjalo kuyisono ukuphinda uganwe owesifazana owalahlwa nguye; Ukukhonza izithombe nemikhuba yokulumba kuyizono ezinengekayo, njengezilinganiso nezilinganiso ezingamanga nokudla ingulube ( Duteronomi 5:24,4; Duteronomi 5:7,25.26, 18,9; 12:25,13-16; 65,4:XNUMX-XNUMX; Isaya XNUMX:XNUMX ).

Lolu hlu luyathakazelisa futhi: “Lezi eziyisithupha uJehova azizondayo, neziyisikhombisa ziyisinengiso emphefumulweni wakhe: amehlo azidlayo, nolimi lwamanga, nezandla ezichitha igazi elingenacala, nenhliziyo eceba okubi, nezinyawo ezigijimela okubi, namanga. ufakazi oqamba amanga, nohlwanyela ukuxabana phakathi kwabazalwane.” Noma: “Imicabango emibi iyisinengiso kuJehova, kepha amazwi amahle ahlanzekile kuye... Osusa indlebe yakhe ekulaleleni umthetho, yebo umthandazo uyisinengiso.”— IzAga 6,16:15,26; 28,9:XNUMX; XNUMX:XNUMX .

Le mibhalo ayisinikezi ilungelo lokuzonda ongqingili. Nakuba zisixwayisa ngobungqingili nemiphumela yabo elimazayo emikhayeni, uNkulunkulu akasizondi lesi sono njengezinye izono eziningi eziyingozi. Kodwa uNkulunkulu usizonda isono ngenxa yokuthi uyasithanda isoni futhi ufuna ukusisindisa.

Kuthiwani ngesigwebo sentambo?

Kodwa manje abaningi bayavumelana noRoger Jimenez futhi bathi: Ongqingili bafanelwe ngempela isigwebo sentambo. IBhayibheli ngokwalo lithi: “Uma indoda ilala nendoda njengokuba ilala nowesifazane, bobabili benzile isinengiso, bayakubulawa nokubulawa; igazi labo libe phezu kwabo!” ( Levitikusi 3:20,13 ) Futhi ukuze lo myalo ugcwaliseke, umbuso udinga abantu abanhliziyo zabo zingathambile kakhulu.

Abaningi bayakuphikisa lokhu ngokuthi isikhathi sokubusa kukaNkulunkulu (umbuso weNkosi) sasiseTestamenteni Elidala kuphela. Kusukela ekufikeni kukaJesu kokuqala, isigwebo sokufa sihlehliselwe usuku lokugcina. UNkulunkulu wahoxa njengomahluleli. Hhayi-ke, angihambisani nalowo mbono. Ngoba uJesu wamemezela ukuqala kokubusa kukaNkulunkulu lapha emhlabeni. »Umbuso kaNkulunkulu ngeke uze ngendlela yokuthi umuntu angawugcina. Abantu ngeke bathi: Bheka lapha! noma: Bheka lapho! Ngoba bheka, umbuso kaNkulunkulu imitten phakathi kwenu.” ( Luka 17,20.21:XNUMX, XNUMX ) Izimiso zakhe sezisetshenziswa kakade yilabo abazihlanganise naye: “Umbuso wakho mawuze. mayenziwe intando yakho njengasezulwini emhlabeni’ ( Mathewu 6,10:8,11 ) Esinye sezimiso zokubusa kukaNkulunkulu eTestamenteni Elisha siwukuthi: ubumnene esikhundleni sesijeziso sokufa. Lokhu kuboniswa indlela uJesu aphatha ngayo isiphingikazi uMariya Magdalena ngothando. Wayeyisibonelo esihle sokubhekana naso sonke isoni esidinga ukuphulukiswa kwangaphakathi. UJesu akazange ambuze nokuthi wayezisola yini ngesono sakhe. Wavele wathi, “Nami angikwehluleli. Hamba ungabe usona!” ( Johane XNUMX:XNUMX )

Ukuvuselelwa kwezigebengu ezinonya

UPawulu futhi uyawuqonda umbuso kaNkulunkulu ngalomqondo:

“Ningakhohliswa: abaphinga, abakhonza izithombe, abaphingayo, Inkanuko yabafana nabanukubezi babafana, amasela noma abantu abahahayo, izidakwa, abahlambalazayo noma abaphangi ngeke babe nandawo embusweni kaNkulunkulu. Futhi labo abanye benu gewesen. Kodwa egameni leNkosi uJesu Kristu nangoMoya kaNkulunkulu wethu wageza wahlanzeka“Uma lingcwelisiwe, kuthiwe nilungile.” ( 1 Korinte 6,9:11-XNUMX ) I-New Evangelistic Translation

Ngakho phakathi kwamaKristu okuqala kwakukhona ababengabafana benjabulo nabanukubezi babafana. Kunoma yikuphi, ongqingili babengabhekwa njengabafanelwe ukufa nguPawulu, kodwa babenelungelo lapha futhi manje embusweni kaNkulunkulu ngokuhlanzwa, ukungcweliswa nokulungisiswa. Ngoba uNkulunkulu “uthanda lokho konke “Abantu bayosindiswa futhi bafinyelele olwazini lweqiniso” ( 1 Thimothewu 2,4:XNUMX ). Ngenxa yalesi simo sengqondo esiyisisekelo, amaSeventh-day Adventist avame ukuba nemiphakathi ephilayo emajele anezigebengu ezinzima. Ukube besingesesigwebo sentambo, umsebenzi wethu lapho ubungeke ube nomqondo.

Kungani isigwebo sentambo saba khona?

Pho kungani sithola isigwebo sentambo eMthethweni kaMose? UPawulu futhi uphendula lombuzo: “Kusobala ukuthi niyincwadi kaKristu, engabhalwanga ngoyinki, kodwa ngoMoya kaNkulunkulu ophilayo, kungabi ezibhebheni zamatshe, kodwa ezibhebheni zenyama yenhliziyo, ezenziwe zafanela inhloso Izinceku zesivumelwano esisha, esingesiso esombhalo kodwa esikamoya; ngoba incwadi iyabulala, kodwa uMoya uyaphilisa.” ( 2 Korinte 3,3:XNUMX ) UJesu unikeza ukuphila.

Yebo, incwadi eyayisezibhebheni zamatshe yayikhipha isigwebo sokufa ezoni eziningi. EMthethweni KaMose kwakunale “nkonzo yokulahlwa” “eyasuswa”: isigwebo sokufa. Yiyo kanye le nkonzo yokulahlwa eyaholela ekubeni uMesiya alahlwe futhi abethelwe esiphambanweni. Nokho, “okusele” eMthethweni kaMose “inkonzo kaMoya” “nethemba.” UMoya kaNkulunkulu osenhliziyweni yomuntu usukhulule abaningi ezonweni zabo. Lapho uMoya weNKOSI usenhliziyweni, kukhona ukukhululeka esonweni, kodwa futhi ukukhululeka kubantu abavala umoya kaNkulunkulu wokungabi nabugovu ezinhliziyweni zabo futhi baphile ukuphila okuhlukile, okunesono ( ivesi 8.11.12.17:XNUMX, XNUMX, XNUMX ). Inkululeko nethemba akukwazi ke ukungena ezinhliziyweni zabo. Ngakho-ke, ngaphandle kokuthi baphenduke ezonweni zabo, bayoba yizisulu zezahlulelo abazibekela zona futhi balahlekelwe ukuphila okuphakade.

Isigwebo sentambo, njengempi, ubukhosi, ubugqila, njll., siyingxenye yesimo somuntu, esinesono, futhi ngokuvamile sobudemoni nesimiso senhlalo. Ngalo, uNkulunkulu wakwazi ukuvimbela kakhulu ukubulala ezandleni zangasese. Naphezu kwesigwebo sentambo, wanika abantu bakwa-Israyeli umthetho wobugebengu owawunobuntu nesihe ukwedlula owezizwe ezaziwazungezile. Ukube wathula ngokushesha ukungalungi, abantu bebezophinde bazithathele ugazi ezandleni zabo.

Esizweni esinonya kunazo zonke sakwaIsrayeli, uyise uLevi wayesezakhele igama kakade ngesibhicongo saseShekemi (Genesise 1), uNkulunkulu wanikeza umyalo ongavamile ngoMose: Egameni lakhe, amaLevi kufanele abe izelamani, abangane, phakathi kwabakhulekeli. leNkonyane Legolide futhi nibulale omakhelwane. Kwafa amadoda ayizi-34 3000 (Eksodusi 2). Nokho, ngokwenza kanjalo, waxazulula inkinga enonya ebuntwini bozalo lukaLevi. ‘Njengomvuzo,’ akabange esaba namaLevi ukuba angene ebuthweni lezempi, kodwa esikhundleni sebutho labapristi. Ngalokho wayesesithathile isikhali ezandleni zabo futhi wabenza bajwayelana kakhulu nesu lensindiso elambulwa endlini engcwele. Kamuva baze baba izakhamuzi zasemizini yesiphephelo, lapho abantu ababulala othile ngephutha babephephile ekuziphindiseleni kwegazi. Isihloko esijulile!

Ubungqingili embusweni wezilwane

Ukuziphatha kobungqingili ezilwaneni kuvame ukucashunwa ukuze kuvezwe ubungqingili njengento engokwemvelo. Kodwa ingabe lokho kufanele kube isizathu sokulingisa lokhu kuziphatha? Kunenqwaba yezinye izindlela zokuziphatha embusweni wezilwane esizithola zingafaneleki ngokulinganayo ukulingiswa. Yikho kanye lokhu kuqondiswa kabusha kwecebo likaNkulunkulu elikhazimulayo, elihle kuye ekulingiseni izilwane okwachazwa uPawulu:

“Bezitshela ukuthi bahlakaniphile, baba yiziwula, bashintsha inkazimulo kaNkulunkulu ongabhubhiyo yaba munye. isithombe, lokho kumuntu odlulayo, ezinyonini nasezintweni ezinezinyawo ezine nezinto ezinwabuzelayo sifana nezilwane. Ngalokho-ke uNkulunkulu wabanikela ezinkanukweni zezinhliziyo zabo ukuba bangcolile, bahlazisane emizimbeni yabo, abaguqule iqiniso likaNkulunkulu libe ngamanga, badumisa nokukhuleka kokudaliweyo esikhundleni soMdali. , obongekayo kuze kube phakade. Amen!” ( Roma 1,22:25-XNUMX )

Ucansi njengoba kusho uNkulunkulu

Ohlelweni lukaNkulunkulu lwasekuqaleni, inkanuko iyisithelo sothando olungenabugovu; Esuni likaSathane, inkanuko iyisithelo sokuxhashazwa kobugovu. Kodwa uthando olungenabugovu alulona kuphela uphawu lobulili baphezulu. Ngisho nezazi zesayensi yezinto eziphilayo ezingakholelwa kuNkulunkulu zizovuma ukuthi, ngokwe-anatomically kanye ne-physiologically, ubulili ngokuyinhloko bokuzalana, kodwa futhi bunamandla amakhulu okuhlangana nomlingani womuntu, ikakhulukazi uma umuntu engakaze ashintshe abalingani. Ochwepheshe bezengqondo nabafundisi abangakholelwa kuNkulunkulu bayaqaphela ukuthi izibalo zokunamathela zibaluleke kangakanani ekukhuleni okunempilo ngokomzimba nangokwengqondo kwezingane ezincane kanye nentsha.

Kodwa umphakathi wethu wokulahla kanye nabathengi uya ngokuya unqanyulwa futhi uyashintshashintsha. Kukhona futhi imibhangqwana yabantu bobulili obubodwa phakathi kongqingili abahlala bethembekile kumlingani wabo kuze kube sekufeni - lokhu kuthiwa kukhona embusweni wezilwane, isibonelo phakathi kwama-swans ongqingili. Kodwa amadoda ajwayele ukushesha kakhulu ucansi ngenxa ye-hormone testosterone. Ijika elivusa inkanuko yobulili nalo liyakhuphuka. Ucwaningo luthole ukuthi amadoda acabanga ngocansi kaningi kunabesifazane, aya ocansini kaningi, futhi afune ophathina abaningi. Ngakho-ke akumangazi ukuthi ongqingili, ngokwesilinganiso, banobulili obuningi kanye nabalingani abaningi kunabo bonke abanye abantu.

Umphostoli uPawulu ubona ukuzala njengokugcwaliseka okubalulekile kobulili. Uze athi kuye kwenziwa umsebenzi wokuphulukisa: “Owesifazane... ibusisiwe werden ngalokhu“Ukuze azale abantwana, uma behlala behluzekile ekukholweni, nasothandweni, nasebungcweleni.” ( 1 Thimothewu 2,14:XNUMX )

Kunocwaningo olukhombisa ukuthi izinguquko ezinkulu zenzeka ebuchosheni bomuntu wesifazane ngenxa yokukhulelwa nokubeletha. Ngakho-ke uzwela olukhulu nothando lukamama oluyizaga. Ingabe lokho kwakuhlobene nalokho uPawulu akubhalela uThimothewu?

Ukuya ocansini empeleni kungathuthukisa amandla ako aphelele kuphela uma kwenzeka ngokuzibophezela ngaphansi kwezimo ezilungele ukukhula kwezingane, okuwukuthi nabazali ababili abanothando abahlala bethembekile komunye nomunye ukuphila kwabo konke.

Umphakathi wethu osenguqukweni nasekuhlakazweni

Izwe esiphila kulo likwenza kube nzima nakakhulu ukuphila ukuphila komkhaya okungenangqondo futhi sihlale ndawonye njengombhangqwana oshadile nomndeni. Indlela yethu yokuphila yonke iphambene nalokho. Amalungu amasha omndeni ahlala ehlukene ngokweminyaka, ngisho nasemiphakathini yethu yamasonto. Cishe wonke umuntu uphuma endlini njalo ekuseni. Zihlukene ngenkulisa, inkulisa, isikole samabanga aphansi, isikole samabanga aphezulu, inyuvesi kanye nendawo yokusebenza. Abantu abaningi bachitha ngokuzenzakalelayo isikhathi sabo esikhululekile nabantu abachitha nabo usuku lonke, okungukuthi ngaphandle komndeni.

Umndeni, empeleni wonke umphakathi, usohlelweni lokuhlela kabusha nokuhlakazwa. Isehlukaniso nokukhipha isisu kuba lula ngaso sonke isikhathi; Ngeshwa, lokhu kwakamuva kuyenzeka ngokucela, ngisho nasemitholampilo yama-Adventist. Ubuhlobo bangaphambi komshado nemishado engalawuleki manje sekuyinsakavukela umchilo wesidwaba futhi ayisavamile neze emphakathini. Umshado wezitabane njengamanje uzuza izinhliziyo zabashayamthetho. Ukugxiliswa kobulili okuvamile kuzozibilisa ngokuphelele izinhlelo zemfundo.

I-Radicalization njengempendulo yokwehla kwesiko

Ngenxa yalesi sifundo umphakathi wethu osithatha ngokubheka izinto ezingasho lutho, ukukhetha kanye nesakhiwo, bayanda abantu abashintshashintshayo. Esihlokweni ku-Die Zeit, umbhali uchaza ukuthi kuleli zwe "isimo esijwayelekile nesimo esiyingqayizivele, incazelo nobuhlanya besimanje buhlangana kanjani ngaphandle komthungo - kube inkathi yesikhashana lapho uhlelo oludala luwa ngaphandle kokusha ukubona.” Ukwesaba kuvela endaweni engenalutho ye-oda elinqamukayo; indawo engaphansi ye-barbaric of liquefaction and dissolution. Inzondo ibangelwa “yikho konke okuthiwa kuqhuba umhlaba ngisho nangokwengeziwe encithakalweni futhi kuguqule “imvelo yemvelo” ekhanda lawo: ukushada kwezitabane… ukuhlukahluka kwamasiko, kungakhohlwa ukuzalwa okunamandla kokuvukela kwesokunxele, ukuhlasela kwabesifazane nobulili. umbono wephakade elingapheli lohlelo lwezinzalamizi.« (Thomas Assheuer, Die Zeit, Juni 16, 2016, "Inzondo yakhe ebulalayo ivelaphi?")

I-Tel Aviv kwa-Israel manje isiwukuphela kwedolobha eMpumalanga Ephakathi ukuba libe ngelinye lamadolobha abaluleke kakhulu ezitabane emhlabeni. Izwe lizungezwe amazwe amaSulumane lapho imodeli yomndeni wezinzalamizi u-Abraham isenamandla. Lesi akusona ukuphela kwesizathu esenza ukuthi u-Israyeli abe uphawu lweNtshonalanga yokuziphatha okubi kumaSulumane. Impi yokukhulula iPalestine iwukulwa nokungahloniphi uNkulunkulu, njengoba kuzwakala kuyindida njengoba kuzwakala, izwe lenkolo yamaJuda, ibutho laseNtshonalanga elibi.

AmaSulumane amaningi nawo ahlala esikweni laseNtshonalanga, nakuba engakholwa kangako, abona ukuwohloka okukhona lapha njengosongo emindenini yabo, ezinganeni zabo nasemphakathini wabo. Ingcosana futhi ayinawo amandla okumelana nalezi zinto ezihehayo, okungaholela ekuzidekeni okukhulu. I-Radicalization ebhekise kubudlova ingaba umphumela wenzondo ewumphumela. Akuhlukile nabangewona amaSulumane, ngaphandle kokuthi ukugqama nobudlova kwesinye isikhathi kwenzeka ngendlela ehlukile futhi kuba nemiphumela ehlukile.

UPaul: Isexwayiso ngokumelene ne-pederasty?

UPawulu wayephila esikweni lamaGreki. Emadolobheni amakhulu ase-Efesu, eKorinte, e-Athene naseRoma, izakhamuzi eziningi zazizitika ngokuziphatha okubi futhi zinabafana bazo bezinjabulo. I-Sibylline Oracle ithi phakathi kwabantu basendulo, amaJuda kuphela ayengenabo abafana bokuzijabulisa. Futhi eqinisweni: UPawulu ubhala okuningi mayelana nobufebe nobufebe, okusho okuthile okufana nalokhu: imvume yobulili noma ubuhlobo bobulili obunqatshelwe. Abanye manje bakholelwa ukuthi lobu bufebe endaweni yobungqingili bubhekisela kuphela ebufebeni kanye nesiko labafana benjabulo, ababeyizingane futhi ngokuvamile behlinzeka ngezinkonzo zabo ngokungenzi lutho. Nokho, amazwi omphostoli kwabaseRoma ayaphikisana nalokhu:

“Ngakho-ke uNkulunkulu wabanikela ezinkanukweni zezinhliziyo zabo, ekungcoleni, ukuchitha eyabo imizimba phakathi kwabo ihlazo... ngokuba omkabo benana ukulala kwemvelo ngokungesikho okwemvelo; Ngendlela efanayo, abesilisa nabo baye bashiya ubulili bemvelo nabesifazane futhi ngokumelene nomunye “Beshiswa izinkanuko zabo, bajabhise umuntu ngomuntu, bamukele kubo umvuzo wokuduka kwabo.” ( KwabaseRoma 1,24:26-XNUMX )

Akukho okumele kubonwe lapha mayelana nokuxhashazwa kwentsha engaphansi kweminyaka, kodwa kunalokho umbhalo ukhuluma ngokulingana phakathi kwabesifazane nabesilisa.

Iyiphi enye indlela yokuzonda?

Kubo bonke ababhali bebhayibheli, uPawule ubonakala efunde kabanzi ngendaba yobungqingili. Yiziphi izincomo azinikezayo ngokubhekana nezono zobulili nezoni? Ingabe inikeza enye indlela kunenzondo nobudlova? Ake sihlolisise izincomo zakhe.

“Kepha umzimba awusiwo owobufebe, kodwa ungoweNkosi, neNkosi ingeyomzimba. Balekelani ubufebe! ... noma ubani owenza ubufebe wona owakhe umzimba ... kodwa ukuze agweme ubufebe, yilowo nalowo makabe nowakhe umkakhe, kube yilowo nalowo indoda yakhe ... Kepha imisebenzi yenyama isobala, eyile: ukuphinga; ubufebe, ukungcola, ukuxhwala ... ubufebe, kodwa nakho konke ukungcola noma ukuhaha akuyikuphathwa nakuphathwa phakathi kwenu, njengoba kufanele abangcwele.” ( 1 Korinte 6,13.18:7,2, 5,19; 5,3:XNUMX; Galathiya XNUMX:XNUMX; Efesu XNUMX:XNUMX ) Ngakho-ke, ‘ubufebe. .

“Ngakho-ke bulalani... ubufebe, nokungcola, nenkanuko, nezifiso ezimbi, nokuhaha, okungukukhonza izithombe; Ngenxa yalezi zinto ulaka lukaNkulunkulu luyehlela phezu kwabantwana bokungalaleli; nawe uphakathi kwabo kanye nahamba kulezizinto... Ngokuba lokhu kuyintando kaNkulunkulu, ukungcweliswa kwenu, ukuba nidede ebufebeni... Awukho umthetho omiselwe abalungileyo, kodwa owabangenamthetho... abangamesabi uNkulunkulu. nezoni, abangcolileyo, nezifebe, nabaphangi, nabaphangi, nabaqamba amanga, nabafaka amanga, nanoma yini enye ephikisana nesifundiso esiphilileyo... Kepha izifebe neziphingi uNkulunkulu uyakuzahlulela.”— Kolose 3,5:7-1; 4,3 Thesalonika 1:1,10; 13,4 Thimothewu XNUMX:XNUMX; Heberu XNUMX:XNUMX .

Kulemibhalo, uPawulu uxwayisa ngesono kuphela, hhayi esoni. Kukhona nesiqephu esisodwa esihlukile: Uxwayisa abantu ngohlobo olulodwa lomuntu oziphethe kabi ngokobulili. Yilabo abangabuye babizwe ngokuthi abazalwane emphakathini.

“Ngalibhalela encwadini ukuthi ningahlangani nezifebe; futhi hhayi nezifebe zaleli zwe jikelele, noma nabahahayo, noma nabaphangi, noma abakhonza izithombe; kungenjalo bekuzodingeka uhambe emhlabeni. Kodwa khathesi-ke ngilibhalela ukuthi lingahlanganyeli loba ngubani ozibiza ngokuthi ungumzalwane, kumbe eyisifebe, loba isihwaba, loba okhonza izithombe, loba umhlambazi, loba isidakwa, loba umphangi; Ungadli nokudla naye onjalo.”— 1 Korinte 5,9:11-XNUMX .

Ukusondelana kukaJesu nezoni

UJesu wasinika isibonelo kwezinye izoni. Sesike sakhuluma ngesibonelo sesiphingikazi uMariya Magdalena. NgokoMthetho kaMose, icala labo lalinesijeziso sokufa. Kodwa ngemva kokuba uJesu exoshe ababemmangalela, ethi, “Ongenasono phakathi kwenu makabe ngowokuqala ukumjikijela ngetshe,” akazange abasole, nakuba kwakunguye yedwa ongenasono esixukwini. Wayekhiphe “amademoni ayisikhombisa” kuye. ‘Wayeyisoni’ esamgcoba ngenxa yokubonga endlini yomFarisi uSimoni futhi samanga njalo ngezinyembezi ( Johane 8,7:16,9; Marku 7,37.45:XNUMX; Luka XNUMX:XNUMX, XNUMX ). Kodwa kwakungeyena yedwa isoni uJesu ayengenamahloni ngaso:

»Kungani inkosi yakho idla nabo abathelisi nezoni? Kodwa uJesu ekuzwa wathi kubo: Abalamandla abadingi inyanga, kodwa abagulayo. Kodwa hambani nifunde ukuthi kusho ukuthini ukuthi: 'Ngifuna isihawu hhayi umhlatshelo.' Ngokuba angizanga ukubiza abalungileyo, kepha izoni ukuba ziphenduke... Ngiqinisile ngithi kini. Abathelisi nezifebe ngenani embusweni kaNkulunkulu masinyane kunani!” ( Mathewu 9,11:13-21,31; XNUMX:XNUMX ) Ngakho-ke

Iresiphi yokunakekela kwabelusi: Yiba nomusa ngokwesaba!

Ngakho kuwumsebenzi wabo bonke abafundi bakaJesu ukuhlangana nezoni ukuze basindise abaningi: “Yiba nomusa kwabangabazayo. uhlwitha abanye emlilweni futhi abasindise; omunye hawukela ngokwesaba futhi uzonda ingubo engcoliswe inyama.” ( Jude 22.23:XNUMX )

Leli vesi libonisa isimiso esibalulekile: sibizelwe ukusiza. Yebo! Kodwa kubalulekile ukuthi sihlale siqaphile. Kukangaki umfundisi elahlekelwa ubumsulwa bakhe ekuhlanganeni kwezingxoxo ezijwayelekile zokwelusa. Esinye sezizathu zokuthi kungani umfundisi akumele elule owesifazane eyedwa futhi umfundisi wesifazane akumele elule owesilisa yedwa. Kodwa kulezi zinsuku, ukunakekelwa kobulili obufanayo kungase kube yingozi ngaphansi kwezimo ezithile.

Kungakho uPawulu abhala: “Masihambe ngokuhloniphekayo njengasemini...kungabi ngobufebe nokuxhwaleka, kungabi ngokuxabana nomhawu; kodwa yembathani iNkosi uJesu Kristu, futhi ningakhathazeki ngenyama kuze kube sekupheleni injabulo kwezifiso! ngiyakuthobisa umzimba wami, ngiwenze isigqila, funa ngishumayeza abanye, ngibe ngolahlwayo mina uqobo.”— 13,14 Korinte 1:9,27;

Ukuthi ubungcwele busho ukuthini ngempela

Ithi uJehova uNkulunkulu: “Ngokuba nginguJehova uNkulunkulu wakho; Ngakho-ke kumelwe nizingcwelise nibe ngcwele, ngoba mina ngingcwele.” ( Levitikusi 3:11,44 ) Ngokuvamile ubungcwele buchazwa njengokuhlukaniselwa, okuhlukaniselwe injongo ekhethekile. Kodwa ingabe konke lokho? Imfoloko nayo ingaba ngcwele. Futhi uNkulunkulu uqobo Lwakhe ngokuqinisekile akazange ahlukaniselwe noma ahlukaniselwe noma iyiphi injongo ekhethekile. Nokho ungcwele. Njengoba siqhubeka sifunda leli vesi, incazelo iyacaca: “futhi aniyikuzingcolisa.” Ubungcwele bubuye busho ubumsulwa nokuhlanzeka. Ngakho-ke abangcwele yibo abamsulwa, umbono oguquguqukayo ngokubona kwami.

Uma kubhekwa i-Orlando, ubumsulwa obuphilayo budingeka kakhulu. Akubona kuphela ongqingili nama-Islamists abadinga lobu bumsulwa, kodwa bonke abantu. Ukubulala, ukuzibulala, ukudlwengulwa nokunye ukulimala kwenzeka njalo ngomzuzu futhi umhlaba uyaqhubeka nokuhlukumeza ubheke kwalasha. Umhlaba ulangazelela ukukhanyiselwa ngenkazimulo kaJesu, ubungcwele, ubumsulwa obuvezwa kubafundi bakaJesu, “abalandela iWundlu nomaphi lapho liya khona . . . Ubuhle besimo sikaNkulunkulu buyakhanga ngokungenamkhawulo. Ubunjalo bakhe, umoya wakhe, isimo sakhe, esembulwe egazini leWundlu, kunikeza ukuphulukiswa nenkululeko kubo bonke.

Inzondo noma uthando olungenabugovu?

Inzondo noma ubudlova akusizi ukulwa nezinto ezimbi ezenzeka kulo mhlaba. Uthando olungenabugovu ukuphela kwamandla angasindisa lapha. Ongqingili bacabanga ukuthi balunqobile uthando futhi bayinqoba impi. Kodwa abanalo uthando lweqiniso. AmaSulumane akholelwa ukuthi aziqashise uthando, njengoba cishe yonke sura yeQuranic iqala ngamagama: egameni likaNkulunkulu isithandwa esinothando. Nakuba ngokuvamile lihunyushwa ngokuthi: egameni likaNkulunkulu onesihe, onobubele, leli gama lisuselwa egameni elisetshenziswe kula mavesi alandelayo: “Ngifuna wena. uthando olusuka enhliziyweniJehova, mandla ami!” ( IHubo 18,2:XNUMX ) “Owesifazane angamkhohlwa yini umntwana wakhe omncane ukuba angamkhohlwa isihawu ngendodana yakhe ayizalayo?” ( Isaya 49,15:XNUMX ) Leli gama liphathelene nothando lwesihe lukamama. Ngeshwa, amaSulumane amaningi awaluqondi uthando lukaNkulunkulu, futhi ikakhulukazi labo abazivumela ukuthi bangenwe yinzondo.

Uthando lweqiniso lubekezelela zonke izingxabano, lukholelwa zonke izithembiso, luthemba insindiso yawo wonke umuntu, lubekezelela konke ukuhlupheka. Uma siphila lolu thando, ngeke kube lula ukuzifaka esigabeni esinama-reactioners anodlame. Kunalokho, siyokwaziwa njengalabo abakhipha amademoni.

Indoda yaseGadara eyayinedemoni yagijima inqunu, iklabalasa futhi inobudlova. Amademoni ayemphethe abonisa amandla awo okubhubhisa lapho engena ezingulubeni. Kodwa kamuva lendoda yahlala ezinyaweni zikaJesu igqokile futhi inengqondo, okwabangela ukumangala okukhulu phakathi kwabelusi bezingulube. Wayethathe ingqondo yeWundlu (Luka 8,26:39-XNUMX).

Nanamuhla sizogqokisa abantu abanqunu? Ingabe uJesu uyokwazi ukuthi ngathi: “Benginqunu nangigqokisa”? ( Mathewu 25,37:XNUMX ) Sihlale sicabanga ngabantu abangasenazo izingubo. Kodwa kimina kubonakala sengathi kulezi zinsuku kumayelana nabantu abaqhubeka bebeka izingubo zabo eceleni njenge-ballast ecasulayo noma bazehlisela endaweni encane yobuhle bamasentimitha-skwele. Ukuwagqokisa akuyona indlela eqondile. Okokuqala nje, ubunqunu babo bokomoya kufanele bulungiswe ngevangeli, hhayi ngokwelashwa okuwujuqu okuhloswe ukubakhulula ekuthambekeleni nasekuluthekeni kwabo. Ngoba uNkulunkulu akakhululi ngempela ekuthambekeleni nasezilingweni, futhi akuthina, kodwa Nguye kuphela, ongakhulula ekuluthweni nasezonweni.

Ingabe sizofukamela isihambi esinodlame? Ingabe uJesu uyokwazi ukuthi ngathi: “Ngangiyisihambi nangamukela”? ( Mathewu 25,36:XNUMX ) Siphinde sicabange ngomuntu angamazi olala emgwaqweni engenandawo yokuhlala. Kodwa kimina kubukeka sengathi kulezi zinsuku kukhulunywa ngabantu ababodwa emakhaya abasengcupheni yokuwohloka ngenxa yokushintsha kwezimiso zomphakathi.

Uma uNkulunkulu engasisebenzisa ukubusisa bonke laba bantu, khona-ke sesiwuzwisisile umyalezo oyisixwayiso ka-Orlando.
