UMBHALI: uRichard Rohr

URichard Rohr, omnye wabantu abacinga ngezinto zokomoya abanefuthe elikhulu ehlabathini, uhambisa incwadi yakhe ekudala ilindelwe ngoYesu.

Kwiminyaka yakhe emininzi njengomfundisi owaziwayo kwihlabathi liphela, uRichard Rohr uncede izigidi zabantu ukuba ziqonde oko kusemngciphekweni kwimiba yokholo kunye nokomoya. Sekunjalo uRohr akakaze abhale ngesihloko esithethwa rhoqo kubuKristu: uYesu. Uninzi luyazi ukuba wayengubani uYesu, kodwa ngubani uKristu? Ngaba igama ligama likaYesu nje kuphela? Rhoqo, uRohr ubhala athi, ukuqonda kwethu kuye kwancitshiswa yinkcubeko, ingxoxo yonqulo, kunye notyekelo lwabantu lokuzibeka kwindawo ephambili.

Esebenzisa izibhalo, imbali, kunye nokuziqhelanisa ngokomoya, uRohr uchaza umbono oguqulayo ngoYesu Kristu njengomfanekiso womsebenzi kaThixo oqhubekayo noqhubekayo ehlabathini. “UThixo uyazithanda izinto ngokuba zizo,” ubhala, kwaye ubomi bukaYesu benzelwe ukuvakalisa ukuba uluntu alukaze lwahlukane noThixo—ngaphandle kokukhetha kwalo okubi. Xa sifumana le nyaniso isisiseko, ukholo alubi malunga nokungqina ukuba uYesu wayenguThixo, kodwa luba malunga nokufunda ukuqonda ubukho boMdali obusingqongileyo, nakumntu wonke esidibana naye.

Incwadi ethi *Universal Christ*, evuselela ingcinga, iyasebenza, kwaye izele lithemba elinzulu kunye nombono, yincwadi ebalulekileyo evela komnye wababhali bethu abathandekayo bomoya, kwaye isimemo sokucamngca ngendlela uThixo akhulula kwaye athanda ngayo konke okukhoyo.
