... kana, Chii chinonzi Heck Purigatori?
Migumisiro? Kune Nguva Dzose Migumisiro!
Purigatori haisi imwe nzira yedenga kana hero. Inguva yechinguvana kuburikidza nayo vamwe mweya inofanira kupfuura kuti igamuchire kucheneswa kwekupedzisira isati yapinda kudenga (Onai Bhuku raZvakazarurwa 21:27). Sokudzidzisa kwakaita Second Vatican Council, purigatori iripo nekuti “kunyange mhosva yechivi yabviswa, chirango chayo kana migumisiro yacho inogona kuramba ichidzikinurwa kana kucheneswa” (Dzidziso Yekuregerera 3).
Saizvozvowo, the Katekisimo yeChechi yeRoma inoti, “Vose vanofira munyasha dzaMwari noushamwari, asi takanatswa tisina kukwana, vane chokwadi cheruponeso rwavo rusingaperi; asi kana vafa vanocheneswa, kuti uwane utsvene hunodiwa kuti upinde mumufaro wedenga” (1030, p. 268). “Mupurigatori,” anonyora kudaro murevereri wechitendero Karl Keating, “kuzvida kwose kunosara kunochinjwa kuva kuda Mwari” (Chikatorike, p. 190).
Chechi inokoshesa Jesu’ command in Mateu 5:48 kuva “akakwana, saBaba venyu vari kudenga vakakwana,” uye anobatirira ku Tsamba kuvaHebheru’12:14 zvinodzidzisa, “Ivai norugare nevanhu vose, uye nokuda kwoutsvene uhwo pasina munhu achaona Ishe.
Uyezve, Chechi inobvuma chokwadi cheBhaibheri chokuti kukwana kwemweya kunodiwa kuti munhu apiwe kudenga, maererano nezvatataura pamusoro apa Bhuku Zvakazarurwa (21:27), “Hapana chinhu chine tsvina chingapinda mairi.”
Saizvozvo, Kuramba kwaMwari kubvumira Mosesi kupinda muNyika Yakapikirwa sechirango nokuda kwokusavimbika kwake kunotsinhirana nokudavira uku. (maona Dhuteronomi 32:48).
Saizvozvowo, imwe yenyaya dzinobaya mumagwaro inonyatso ratidza pfungwa iyi ruregerero nemhedzisiro. Inyaya yaDavid Mutsa uye muprofita Natani pavanokurukura zvakaipa zvaDhavhidhi naBhatishebha Bhuku rechipiri raSamueri, 12:1-14:
2 Samueri 12
| 12:1 | Ipapo Jehovha akatuma Natani kuna Dhavhidhi. Zvino wakati asvika kwaari, akati kwaari: “Varume vaviri vakanga vari muguta rimwe chete: mumwe mupfumi, uye vamwe varombo. |
| 12:2 | Mupfumi uyu akanga ana makwai nemombe zhinji kwazvo. |
| 12:3 | Asi murombo akanga asina chinhu, kunze kwegwai rimwe chete, zvaakanga atenga akachengeta. Uye iye akanga akura pamberi pake, pamwe chete nevana vake, achidya chingwa chake, nokunwira pamukombe wake, uye akarara pachipfuva chake. Uye akanga akaita somwanasikana kwaari. |
| 12:4 | Asi mumwe mufambi akasvika kumufumi, akarega kutora pamakwai ake nemombe dzake, kuitira kuti agoitira mufambi mabiko, vakanga vauya kwaari, akatora makwai omurombo, akagadzirira murume akanga asvika kwaari zvokudya. |
| 12:5 | Ipapo kutsamwa kwaDhavhidhi kwakatsamwira murume uyu zvikuru, akati kuna Natani: “NaJehovha mupenyu, munhu akaita izvi mwanakomana worufu. |
| 12:6 | Anofanira kuripira makwai mana, nokuti wakaita shoko iri, uye haana kunzwira tsitsi. |
| 12:7 | Asi Natani akati kuna Dhavhidhi: “Ndiwe murume uya. Zvanzi naJehovha, Mwari waIsraeri: ‘Ndakakuzodza kuti uve mambo waIsraeri, ndikakurwirai paruoko rwaSauro. |
| 12:8 | ndikakupa imba yashe wako, nevakadzi vashe wako pachipfuva chako. Uye ndakakupa imba yaIsraeri neyaJudha kwauri. Uye sokunge zvinhu izvi zviduku, Ndichakuwedzerai zvinhu zvikuru kwazvo. |
| 12:9 | Naizvozvo, wazvidzireiko shoko raJehovha, naizvozvo makaita zvakaipa pamberi pangu? Iwe wakauraya Uriya muHiti nomunondo. Uye watora mukadzi wake kuti ave mukadzi wako. Uye wakamuuraya nebakatwa revanakomana vaAmoni. |
| 12:10 | Nokuda kwechikonzero ichi, munondo haungabvi paimba yako, kunyange nokusingaperi, nokuti wakandizvidza, uye wakatora mukadzi waUriya muHiti, kuti ave mukadzi wako.’ |
| 12:11 | Uye saka, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha: ‘Tarirai, Ndichakumutsira chakaipa chinobva mumba mako. Ndichatora vakadzi vako iwe uchizviona, ndigozvipa wokwako. Uye acharara nevakadzi vako masikati machena. |
| 12:12 | Nokuti makaita muchivande. Asi ndichaita shoko iri pamberi pavaIsraeri vose, uye pamberi pezuva.’” |
| 12:13 | Ipapo Dhavhidhi akati kuna Natani, “Ndatadzira Jehovha.” Natani akati kuna Dhavhidhi: “Jehovha abvisawo chivi chako. hamungafi. |
| 12:14 | Asi chokwadi, nokuti makapa vavengi vaJehovha mukana wokumhura, nokuda kweshoko iri, mwanakomana wawakaberekerwa: pakufa achafa.” |
Kukanganwira uye Migumisiro
Nyaya yaBhatishebha naDavidi naNatani inotitaurira zvakawanda pamusoro pechimiro chechivi uye netsitsi dzaMwari.. Dhavhidhi, anova mambo anodiwa naJehovha uye haangaiti chinhu chakaipa, akaita chivi chakaipa zvikuru. Mwari aive nechido uye nechido chekuregerera nekudzoreredza, asi paifanira kuva nemigumisiro.
Migumisiro yechivi nemigumisiro yechivi zvinowanzoitiranwa nharo pakati pevaKristu. Tingashamisika, chii chaizvo mhedzisiro nemhedzisiro kana, saizvozvo, zvivi zvose zvakaregererwa pamuchinjikwa? Chivi chose chakamboitwa nevanhu chakayananiswa nechibayiro chaKristu pachake, asi hazvireve kuti mhedzisiro yechivi inorambwa–zvirokwazvo kwete muhupenyu huno. Funga nezvehuwandu hwezvivi (uye mhosva) sekuuraya, kupiswa nekurova. Zvose zvine zvazvinoreva zvepanyika zvinogara kwenguva refu. Saka, ruregerero ipapo, hazvirevi hazvo kuti migumisiro yacho inobviswa.
Kukanganwira, zvakadaro Kurangwa
Kuti unzwisise kuti chirango chingaramba sei kunyange kana zvivi zvomunhu zvaregererwa, zvakakosha kusiyanisa pakati nokusingaperi uye temporal kurangwa.
The nokusingaperi kurangwa kwechivi igehena. Mumwe anoponeswa kubva mukurangwa uku naMwari kana iye–mutadzi–anotendeuka nokureurura zvivi izvozvo. Asi kunyange mushure mokunge munhu aregererwa, temporal chirango chinogona kusara icho chinofanirawo kuregererwa.
Funga, semuyenzaniso, murume asina kutendeka kumukadzi wake. Kunzwa kudemba, anotsunga kuchinja nzira dzake uye kureurura zvaakaita. Mukadzi wake, mukunaka kwake, anomuregerera, zvisinei, zvingatora nguva refu asati azovimba naye zvakare. Achada kuti atangezve kuvimba naye, kuti apore ronda raakonzera muhukama hwavo. Kana tikatadza tinokuvadza ukama hwedu naMwari nevamwe.
Maronda aya anofanira kuporeswa munhu asati apinda kudenga. Ehe saizvozvo, kuporeswa uku kunoitika nenyasha dzaMwari kuburikidza kunaka kwerufu rwaJesu Kristu pamuchinjikwa. Purigatori, kunyange zvakadaro, pamwe chete nemirangariro yatinoita panyika, inzira dzaMwari dzekutibvumira kutora chikamu mumuitiro wekupora sezvatinotora mutoro wechakaipa chatakaita.
Kuti zvive pachena, Purigatori haina chekuita nekuregererwa kwechivi nekuti zvivi zvemweya mupurigatori zvakatoregererwa. Saka, inhema kutaura kuti dzidziso yeChechi yepurigatori inosanganisira kuwana Kukanganwira kwaMwari. Zvakare, mweya iyi inoponeswa, asi kupinda kwavo kudenga kunononoka. Sezvakataurwa naSaint Pauro mubhuku rake Tsamba Yokutanga kuvaKorinde, “Patinotongwa naShe, tinorangwa kuti tirege kunzi tine mhosva pamwe nenyika.” “Nokuti Ishe anoranga uyo waanoda, uye anoranga mwanakomana mumwe nomumwe waanogamuchira” (onai Tsamba kuvaHebheru 12:5-6 uye 5:8-9).
Carl Adam zvimwe akapa tsananguro yakanyanyisa yepurigatori sezvinotevera;
Mweya murombo, vakundikana kushandisa kupfidza kuri nyore uye kunofadza kwenyika ino, zvino anofanira kutsungirira kutsamwa kwese uye zvirango zvese zvakakomba izvo zvakabatanidzwa nemutemo usingaputswe werutongeso rwaMwari kuchivi chidiki., kusvikira aravira nhamo yechivi kumasese acho uye arasikirwa nechinhu chidiki diki chakabatana nacho., kusvikira pakukwaniswa kworudo rwaKristu. Inguva yakareba uye inorwadza, “sezvakaita nemoto.” Moto chaiwo here? Hatizivi; hunhu hwechokwadi hucharamba hwakavanzwa kubva kwatiri munyika ino. Asi izvi tinoziva: kuti hapana chirango chinodzvanyirira “mweya yevarombo” sekuziva kuti ivo nekuda kwekukanganisa kwavo vabviswa kwenguva refu kubva paMuono wakaropafadzwa waMwari.. Kunyanya ivo vanoregeredza zvishoma nezvishoma mukambasi yese yekuve kwavo kubva kune yavo yakamanikana, uye mwoyo yavo yakazaruka zvakasununguka uye zvizere kuna Mwari, saka kunyanya kuvava kwekuparadzaniswa kwavo kunoitwa pamweya uye kushandurwa. Kusuwa kumusha kuna Baba vavo; uye kucheneswa kwavo kunoenderera mberi, zvinorwadza kwazvo kuti mweya yavo inorohwa netsvimbo dzemoto...
Kucheneswa uye Kucheneswa
Nepo muKristu wese anozvitora semutadzi, panguva imwecheteyo anotenda kuti anenge asunungurwa kubva kuchivi (uye kunyange kuda kutadza) kuDenga. Naizvozvo, nzira yekuchenesa inofanira kuvapo mushure mekufa, naro mweya unenge uchitadza unoshandurwa kuva mweya usingapindiri kwachiri.
Kune magwaro akawanda anotaura nezvenzira yekuregerera zvivi mushure mekufa.
Pfungwa yePurigatori muTestamente Yekare
MuTestamente Yekare mune nhoroondo yaJudas Maccabeus uyo “akayananisira vakafa, kuti vagosunungurwa pachivi chavo” (onai Bhuku rechipiri raMaccabees 12:46).
The Bhuku raSiraki, 7:33, inoti, “Ipai nenyasha kuvapenyu vose, uye musanyima vakafa tsitsi.” Ose ari maviri Bhuku rechipiri raMaccabees uye Sirach akabatanidzwa pakati pemabhuku manomwe edeuterocanonical, izvo zvinorambwa nevakawanda vasiri maKatorike. Asi kunyangwe kana munhu asingatendi kuti mabhuku aya akafemerwa naMwari, anofanira kurangarira uchapupu hwenhau hwazvinopa. Vanosimbisa vaIsraeri vekare’ tsika yekunamatira mweya yevafi. Izvi zvinotsigirwa ne Bhuku rechipiri raSamueri 1:12, iyo inotiudza Dhavhidhi nevarume vake “vakachema uye vakachema uye vakatsanya kusvikira manheru (varwi vaShe) nokuti vakanga vaurayiwa nomunondo.”
MuTestamente Itsva
Pauro anotaura munamato wevakafa mune yake Tsamba yechipiri kuna Timotio, achitaura nezveshamwari yake yakanga yafa Onesiforo, “Ishe ngaamuitire kuti awane tsitsi kubva kuna Ishe pazuva iroro” (1:18).
Magwaro anonyatsotaura nezvepurigatori anobvawo kuna Pauro Tsamba Yokutanga kuvaKorinde:
| 3:11 | Nokuti hakuna angaronga dzimwe nheyo, pachinzvimbo cheiyo yakaiswa, anova Kristu Jesu. |
| 3:12 | Asi kana munhu achivaka pamusoro penheyo iyi, kana goridhe, sirivheri, mabwe anokosha, huni, hay, kana mashanga, |
| 3:13 | basa romumwe nomumwe richavonekwa. Nokuti zuva raJehovha richazvizivisa, nokuti zvicharatidzwa nomoto. Uye moto uyu uchaedza basa reumwe neumwe, kuti irudzii. |
| 3:14 | Kana pane basa, yaakavaka pamusoro payo, zvinosara, ipapo achagamuchira mubairo. |
| 3:15 | Kana basa reumwe munhu rakatsva, acharasikirwa nazvo, asi iye amene uchaponeswa, asi sokunge nomoto. |
Ndima 13 rinoreva Zuva Rokutongwa, kana mabasa edu achazoziviswa. Ndarama, sirivheri, namabwe anokosha mundima 12 inomiririra mabasa akakodzera; huni, hay, nemashanga, mabasa asina kukwana.
Zviitiko zvose zviri zviviri zvinobatanidza chivako chechiKristu panheyo yaJesu Kristu. Muchiitiko chekutanga, basa rakaitwa nomuKristu muupenyu rinopukunyuka kutongwa uye anoenda zvakananga kumubayiro wake wokudenga, i.e., ndima 14. Munyaya yekupedzisira, basa remuKristu harisi kurarama uye iye “tambura(s) kurasikirwa,” kunyange zvakadaro, netsitsi dzaMwari, haana kurasika pachake asi anoponeswa “sokunge nomoto” mundima 15.
In Mateu 12:32 Jesu anoita seanoreva kuti kune muripo wechivi chinopfuura rufu: “Ani nani unotaura achipikisa Mweya Mutsvene haazoregererwi, mungava muzera rino kana munguva inouya” (kusimbisa kwakawedzerwa). Ona Papa Mutsvene Gregory Mukuru, Dialogues 4:40 uye Mutsvene Augustine, Guta raMwari 21:24 zvezvinhu zvinoenderana.
Kumwewo, Jesu anoreva kuti vamwe vevakafa vacharangwa zvakasiyana-siyana zvenguva pfupi (maona Ruka 12:47-48).
Manongedzero echiKristu epakutanga kuPurigatori
Zvinyorwa zvakawanikwa pamakuva ekare akadai se Epitaph naAbercius Marcellus (ca. 190), semuyenzaniso, kumbira vakatendeka kuti vanamatire mufi.
Kumirira kufira kutenda mugomba muCarthage mugore 203, Vibia Perpetua ainamatira zuva nezuva hama yake yakafa, Dinocrates, agamuchira chiratidzo chake ari mukutambudzika.
Nguva pfupi asati afa, zvakaratidzwa kwaari kuti akanga apinda muparadhiso. “Ndaiziva,” akadaro, “kuti akanga asunungurwa kubva mukurangwa” (Kufira kutenda kwekusingaperi uye Felicitas 2:4).
Zvakanyanya kudzika, tinoona tsika yevaKristu vepakutanga yekupira chibayiro cheYukaristiya vachimiririra vakafa. Tertullian (d. ca. 240), semuyenzaniso, yakaratidza nzira iyo chirikadzi yakazvipira inonyengeterera kuzorora kwomweya womurume wayo, uye sei “gore negore, pazuva rekufa kwake, ndiye anopa chibayiro” (Mukadzi mumwe chete 10:4).
Mune yake Sacramentary, kutangira pakati pezana remakore rechina, Serapion, Bhishopi weThmuis, akakumbira Mwari, “ndakamiririra vose vakaenda,” ku “vatsvenese vose vakavata munaShe (Apoc. 14:13) uye muvaverenge vose pakati pemapoka evatsvene venyu uye muvape nzvimbo nepekugara (Johani 14:2) muumambo hwenyu” (Sacramentary, Anaphora kana Munamato weChibayiro cheYukaristiya 13:5).
Saka Zvinotisiya Papi?
Vamwe vangabvunza, “Kana munhu achifanira kunge akakwana kuti apinde Kudenga, ndiani zvino angaponeswa?” Vaapostora pavakabvunza mubvunzo mumwechetewo kuna Jesu, Akapindura, “Nevarume izvi hazvibviri, asi kuna Mwari zvinhu zvose zvinobvira” (ona Mateo 19:25-26).
SemaKatorike, isu tingakakavara kuti mukana uripo kuburikidza nePurigatori.
