CS Lewis (1898-1963) - UbuKrestu Obuvamile, Obuphile Ngokugcwele

Kwenzekani uma ubuKristu bungakholelwa nje kuphela-kodwa buphila?

Ngaphambi kokuba ubuKristu obuvamile bube enye yezincwadi zobuKristu ezinethonya kakhulu zekhulu lama-20, umbhali wayo wayengumuntu othanda ukuguquka-ohlakaniphile, olimele, ongabazayo, futhi omelana noNkulunkulu. U-C. S. Lewis akazange afinyelele kalula okholweni, futhi akazange alwamukele ngemizwa. Waphikisana ngendlela yakhe eya ekukholweni, wamelana nakho ngamandla, futhi ekugcineni wazinikela kulokho ayekubiza ngokuthi "ukuguquka okudangele kakhulu nokungathandi kulo lonke elaseNgilandi."

Le ncwadi iqala lapho.

UbuKristu obuvamile, Obuphile Ngokugcwele bumema abafundi ohambweni lwezinsuku ezingama-40 oluletha imibono kaLewis phansi ekulaleleni kwansuku zonke. Esebenzisa impilo yakhe yokuqala, izinkinga zengqondo, ukulahlekelwa kwakhe, ukusakazwa kwempi, kanye nemibhalo ehlala njalo, le ncwadi yokukhulekela ayichazi nje ubuKristu-iqeqesha umfundi ukuba ayisebenzise.

Abafundi abaningi bayabuthanda ubuKristu obuvamile kodwa balwela ukubusebenzisa. Abanye bakuthola kujulile kodwa kungacacile. Abanye bayakuncoma ukucaca kwayo ngenkathi befisa sengathi ikhuluma ngqo nezingcindezi zokuphila kwanamuhla. Le ncwadi yokuthandaza iphendula kulezo zingxabano ezinde ngokwenza lokho uLewis ngokwakhe ayekholelwa ukuthi ukholo kumele lukwenze: ukusuka ekucabangeni kuya esenzweni, ukusuka ekukholweni kuya ebuntwini.

Usuku ngalunye luhlanganisa:

•Umzuzu wokuphila kukaLewis

•Ukuqonda okuyisisekelo okuthathwe ebuKristwini obuvamile kanye nemibhalo ehlobene nakho

•Ukuzindla kwesimanje okuhumusha umcabango kaLewis ube ulimi lwansuku zonke

•Isenzo esisebenzayo noma ukuzivocavoca okungokomoya okubandakanya ingqondo, inhliziyo, kanye nentando

Esikhundleni sokucindezela umfundi ngemfundiso yenkolo, le ncwadi iveza ukwakheka kancane kancane - ivumela iqiniso ukuba limile ngokuzindla, ukuyala, kanye nokuphendula okuphilayo. Abafundi abacelwa nje ukuthi bavumelane noLewis, kodwa bahambe naye, belwa ngokwethembeka nokungabaza, ukuqhosha, ukuhlupheka, ukulalela, kanye nenjabulo.

Lokhu akusikho ukufingqwa kobuKristu obuvamile.
