Isikhathi sokufunda: imizuzu eyi-5

Ezinye izinkulumo ze-apocalyptic eBhayibhelini ziye zaba nezihloko ezingakaze zibonwe enkulungwaneni entsha yeminyaka: “Izizwe zomhlaba ziyokwesaba, futhi ziyokwesaba ukuhlokoma nokugubha kolwandle, futhi abantu bayobhubha ngokwesaba nokulindela izinto. okuzayo kuyakuba phezu komhlaba wonke.” ( Luka 21,25.26:2004, 2011 ) I-tsunami ka-XNUMX yabesabisa abantu kakade. Kepha i-tsunami yaseMpumalanga Japan kanye nenhlekelele yenuzi yaseFukushima eyaba umphumela ngo-XNUMX yanikeza lo mbhalo incazelo ejulile nakakhulu.

Isibonelo saseParis

Incwadi yokugcina yeBhayibheli, isAmbulo, ixwayisa amadolobha ikakhulukazi ngezimo zesikhathi sokuphela. KusAmbulo 11,8:7000 kuvezwa idolobha elikhulu elinegama eliyimfihlakalo elithi “Sodoma-Egypt-Jerusalema”. Lomuzi kuthiwa yilapho ofakazi bakaNkulunkulu ababili (iTestamente Elidala nelisha, iTorah neVangeli) banqotshwa babulawa. Izidumbu zabo zazizolala emigwaqweni yabo izinsuku ezintathu nengxenye. Ukuzamazama komhlaba kwakuzocekela phansi ingxenye yeshumi yomuzi, abantu abangu-XNUMX babezofa. Kulesi sahluko, abahumushi abaningi beBhayibheli abangamaProthestani bakuqaphela ukuvinjelwa kweBhayibheli iminyaka emithathu nengxenye eParis phakathi neNguquko YaseFrance. Asikho isikhala esanele lapha sokuchaza lokhu.

Kodwa umbhalo ngokwawo ukhomba izingozi eziningana emadolobheni: Anamandla amakhulu okungabekezelelani ngokwenkolo, futhi ayisizinda sezinxushunxushu nobugebengu. Kuyenzeka ngempela ukuthi abantu abashonile balele emgwaqeni. Ngaphezu kwalokho, amadolobha ahlala ethinteke kakhulu uma kwenzeka kuba nokuzamazama komhlaba noma ezinye izinhlekelele, ikakhulukazi lapho kuphakama izinkinga zokuhlinzeka.

Izimo zaseParis ngesikhathi seNguquko yaseFrance nazo ziyisibonelo esingokomlando sezinxushunxushu nokuchitheka kwegazi edolobheni.

Ukuwa komuzi omkhulu

Isambulo 18 sikhuluma kabanzi ngokuwa kukamama wawo wonke amadolobha. Amadolobha amajele. Yonke imimoya engcolile, nobubi bonke nobugebengu, yonke imikhuba emibi nezono, utshwala nobufebe babuthana edolobheni futhi bahlale khona. Umuntu ujabulela ingcebo nezinjabulo, engazi ukuthi inhlekelele ikhuphuka (amavesi 2-3).

Ukufa, ukulila, indlala, umlilo sewulindele umuzi. Ngokuphazima kweso kufika igalelo futhi umnotho womhlaba wonke owawuncike kulowo muzi uyawa noma uthuthumele (amavesi 4-11).

Zonke izinhlobo zamagugu ziye zanqwabelana emadolobheni, zomlando, amasiko noma futhi impahla okumsulwa emabhange, iminyuziyamu, zemibukiso, izakhiwo yezakhiwo. Izinhlobonhlobo zezimpahla zithengiswa ezimakethe zezitolo ezinkulu, ezidlula kakhulu kwamanye amadolobha, kodwa akwenzeki neze emaphandleni (amavesi 12-16).

"Izinqola" (izimoto, amabhasi, izitimela) zibonisa isithombe samadolobha namuhla ngendlela engakaze ibonwe ngaphambili emlandweni, "izigqila" noma "izigqila" zisekhona emadolobheni: ubufebe obuphoqelelwe, ukugqilazwa nokusetshenziswa kwezingane kusekhona nanamuhla, nasentshonalanga. emadolobheni, abaningi ababizwa ngokuthi “izisebenzi” basebenza ngaphansi kwezimo ezinonya, futhi abaningi bagcina sebefana nokuba sejele ngenxa yokuqashwa kwabo, ngisho noma bengaweli ngaphansi kwezigaba zangaphambili ( ivesi 13 ).

umlilo nentuthu

Idolobha linikeza uphethiloli omningi. Esimeni sezinhlekelele zemvelo, igesi nezintambo zikagesi zisebenza njengokuthungela, uma kunempi noma ukwesaba, izikhali zisebenzisa injongo efanayo: futhi kukhona inferno. Amadolobha amakhulu avame ukutholakala ngasolwandle, yingakho kubonakala kahle kude nemikhumbi (amavesi 17-19).

“Ingelosi enamandla yacosha itshe elinjengelokusila elikhulu, yaliphonsa olwandle, ithi: ‘Kanjalo iBabiloni, umuzi omkhulu, liyophonswa phansi ngamandla, lingaphinde litholakale.’” ( Ivesi 20 )

Isithombe somthombo wamanzi owakhayo lapho uphonsa itshe lokugaya emanzini sikhumbuza intuthu yebhomu le-athomu, kodwa i-Twin Towers edilikayo eNew York iyodwa ingangena esithombeni njengesibonelo sokubhubha kwedolobha. Emva kwalokho kuthulekile: ugesi uphelile, ama-jukebox athule, abantu abasaphila bathinteka kakhulu ukuthi bangakwazi ukudlala umculo (ivesi 22). Izibani zicimile, imishado angeke isaba khona, bekungaba macabre kakhulu (ivesi 23).

Ngaphansi kwesilingo sedolobha?

Emavesini okugcina idolobha liphinde lalahlwa njengendawo yokuthakatha (ivesi 23), indawo yokushushiswa ngokwenkolo nesigwebo sentambo kwabaphikisayo nababulawayo (ivesi 24).

Ingabe idolobha liyasiloya nathi? Ingabe singaphansi kwesipelingi sezikrini ezinkulu, izibani, umculo, ukuphithizela, ubuchwepheshe obumangalisayo nezakhiwo, ukuphila okujabulisayo? IBhayibheli lithi:

“Bantu bami, phumani eBhabhiloni! Phuma kulo muzi, funa ucushwe ezonweni zawo, futhi funa izinhlupho ezifika kuwo zingakushaye nawe!” ( IsAmbulo 18,4:XNUMX ) INew Genevans
