A.L\u00e9achta\u00ed an Domhnaigh mar Threoir don Bheatha Chr\u00edosta\u00ed.
C\u00e9ad L\u00e9acht (Iarim\u00eda 23:1-6). Cruinneoidh m\u00e9 f\u00e9in fu\u00edlleach mo thr\u00e9ada agus cuirfidh m\u00e9 aoir\u00ed os a gcionn a beath\u00f3idh iad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
D\u00edr\u00edodh an teachtaireacht seo \u00f3 Dhia tr\u00edd an fh\u00e1idh Irim\u00eda ar a raibh f\u00e1gtha, ar fhu\u00edlleach, de phobal Iosrael i ndeora\u00edocht na Baibeal\u00f3ine tar \u00e9is threascairt an Teampaill agus st\u00e1t I\u00fada. Leagtar an mille\u00e1n faoin dtubaiste ar aoir\u00ed Iosrael. Ba iad sin na r\u00edthe agus na prionsa\u00ed, na haoir\u00ed a dh\u00e9antar tagairt d\u00f3ibh sa sliocht seo. Bh\u00edothas le pion\u00f3s trom a ghearradh orthu ag Dia faoin dtubaiste seo a bhuail pobal D\u00e9. D\u00e9anann Dia soil\u00e9ir go bhfuil a ghr\u00e1 d\u00e1 phobal cos\u00fail le gr\u00e1 f\u00edor-aoire d\u00e1 chaoirigh at\u00e1 scaipthe. De bharr a neamh-ch\u00faraim ar na caoirigh sin, t\u00e1 Dia f\u00e9in chun feidhmi\u00fa feasta mar aoire ar a phobal, leo si\u00fad at\u00e1 scaipthe a thabhairt thar nais le f\u00edorbheatha fholl\u00e1in a chaitheamh. T\u00e1 s\u00e9 le aoir\u00ed a chur os a gcionn a bheath\u00f3idh iad. N\u00ed thugtar aon sonra\u00ed faoi c\u00e9 hiad na haoir\u00ed seo. Mar fhoirceann ar an sliocht t\u00e1 gealltanas diaga faoi r\u00ed de shliocht Dh\u00e1iv\u00ed (\u201cBeang\u00e1n f\u00edr\u00e9anta do Dh\u00e1iv\u00ed\u201d) le teacht, n\u00ed deirtear gan mhoill ach san am le teacht. N\u00edos d\u00e9ana\u00ed spreag gealltanais d\u00e1 leith\u00e9id d\u00f3chas sna Gi\u00fadaigh faoi mhac dlisteanach le D\u00e1iv\u00ed le teacht, le su\u00ed ar a chathaoir r\u00edoga. Fuair r\u00edthe deiridh theaghach Dh\u00e1iv\u00ed b\u00e1s i ndeora\u00edocht na Baibeal\u00f3ine tar \u00e9is theascairt Iar\u00fasail\u00e9im, an Teampaill agus st\u00e1t I\u00fada sa bhliain 586 roimh Chr\u00edost. De r\u00e9ir dealraimh measadh go raibh Beang\u00e1n sin Dh\u00e1iv\u00ed tagtha i bpearsa Zarab\u00e1ibil de shliocht Dh\u00e1iv\u00ed, Gobharn\u00f3ir I\u00fada tar \u00e9is na deora\u00edochta, thart ar 520 roimh Chr\u00edost. Ach seans go raibh amhras ag \u00fadar\u00e1is Impireacht na Peirse gur mar sin a bheadh, agus bhaineadh d\u00e1 phost \u00e9. Ach lean an d\u00f3chas sin faoi theacht Bheang\u00e1n Dh\u00e1iv\u00ed beo in Iosrael, agus glacann Cr\u00edostaithe leis go bhfuil f\u00edoradh na tairngreachta ann in \u00cdosa Mac Dh\u00e1iv\u00ed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Salm le Freagra (Salm 22[23]). Is \u00e9 an Tiarna m\u2019aoire, n\u00ed bheidh aon n\u00ed de dh\u00edth orm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dara L\u00e9acht (Eifisigh 2:13-18). Is eisean \u00e1r gceann r\u00e9itigh: is \u00e9 a rinne aon bhu\u00edon amh\u00e1in den d\u00e1 phobal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I dt\u00fas na litreach seo chuig na hEifisigh (a l\u00e9adh an Domhnach seo caite) mheabhraigh P\u00f3l, Aspal m\u00f3r na nGintlithe, n\u00f3 deisceabal \u00e9igin leis, cad ba mhian le Dia a dh\u00e9anamh tr\u00edna Mhac \u00cdosa. Nocht Dia d\u00fainn r\u00fan a thola \u2013 an sc\u00e9im a bh\u00ed leagtha amach aige \u00f3 th\u00fas lena chur i gcr\u00edch i gCr\u00edost nuair a bheadh an t-am cu\u00ed tagtha \u2014 mar at\u00e1 gach a bhfuil ar neamh agus ar talamh a thabhairt faoi cheannas Chr\u00edost. N\u00ed smaoineanh cr\u00e1ifeach simpl\u00ed at\u00e1 anseo, agus tugann l\u00e9acht an lae inniu roinnt de na himpleachta\u00ed a eascra\u00edonn as an bprionsabal at\u00e1 i gceist d\u00fainn: gach rud ar talamh a thabhairt le ch\u00e9ile i gCr\u00edost, faoi cheannas Chr\u00edost. Labhra\u00edonn scr\u00edbhneoir na litreach mar Ghi\u00fadach, ag tagairt d\u00f3 f\u00e9in agus d\u00e1 phobal mar \u201csinne. uainne\u201d, \u201cd\u00fainne a bh\u00ed ina ch\u00f3ngar\u201d do Dhia, agus ag tagairt d\u00e1 l\u00e9itheoir\u00ed, Gintlithe, neamh-Ghi\u00fadaigh den chuid is m\u00f3 de, mar \u201csibhse\u201d \u201ca bh\u00ed i bhfad uaidh\u201d. Chuir na Gi\u00fadaigh treise lena bhf\u00e9inthuiscint, agus chosain siad iad f\u00e9in i gcoinne chomhsamhl\u00fa ag na cult\u00fair mh\u00e1guaird, le rialacha deasghn\u00e1thacha agus le for\u00e1lacha de Dhl\u00ed Mhaois agus cinn n\u00edos \u00f3ige. Bh\u00ed a n-ionannas, a ndifr\u00edocht, \u00f3 neamh-Ghi\u00fadaigh le sonr\u00fa chomh maith sa Teampall ina raibh falla ag d\u00e9anamh deighilt idir chl\u00f3s na nGintlithe (ina fh\u00e9adfadh neamh-Ghi\u00fadaigh teacht isteach) agus an chuid eile den Teampall. Aon neamh-Ghi\u00fadach a rachadh thar an falla seo isteach d\u2019fh\u00e9adfa\u00ed \u00e9 a chur chun b\u00e1is saor \u00f3 phion\u00f3s. Chuir b\u00e1s \u00cdosa deireadh leis an deighilt seo. Bheadh pobal D\u00e9 le tuiscint feasta tr\u00ed chreideamh i gCr\u00edost. Mar sin cruth\u00f3dh Cr\u00edost den d\u00e1 phobal Gi\u00fadaigh agus Gintlithe cine daonna nua, aontaithe, \u201cDuine Nua\u201d mar a thugann P\u00f3l air, san eaglais, mar ar f\u00e9idir Dea-Sc\u00e9al na s\u00edochana, agus an bheatha Chr\u00edosta\u00ed a mhaireacht\u00e1il le athmhuintearas idir neamh-Ghi\u00fadaigh, Gintlithe, iad sin a bh\u00ed i bhfad \u00f3 Dhia agus na Gi\u00fadaigh, iad sin a bh\u00ed ina ch\u00f3ngar. T\u00e1 teacht acu araon, Gi\u00fadaigh agus neamh-Ghi\u00fadaigh, ar an Athair faoi lu\u00ed an aon Spioraid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
An Soisc\u00e9al (Marcas 6:30-34). Bh\u00ed siad mar a bheadh caoirigh gan aoire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sa sliocht d\u00edreach roimh l\u00e9acht an lae inniu thug \u00cdosa \u00fadar\u00e1s agus ord\u00fa d\u00e1 dheisceabail an Dea-Sc\u00e9al a fh\u00f3gairt ina ainm. Bhi toradh f\u00f3nta ar a misean agus i l\u00e9acht an lae inniu tugann \u00cdosa cuireadh d\u00f3ibh a sc\u00edth a ligean. Chuigh siad go h\u00e1it uaigneach ar leithrigh, ach leanann sluaite iad ag lorg cabhrach agus treorach ina mbeatha. Ghlac trua ag \u00cdosa d\u00f3ibh mar go raibh siad mar chaoirigh gan aoire. D\u00e1 bharr sin thosaigh s\u00e9 ag m\u00faineadh m\u00f3r\u00e1n nithe d\u00f3ibh. N\u00edor bhain misean \u00cdosa le leigheas na n-easlan amh\u00e1in. Ba chuid de tabhairt ar dhaoine a nd\u00ednit mar dhaoine aonair a thuiscint agus treoir sa bheatha seo a bheith acu, agus eolas a bheith acu ar an gc\u00faram a bh\u00ed ag a nAthair ar neamh ina leith. Is fi\u00fa aird a thabhairt ar an mb\u00e9im a chuireann \u00cdosa ar an m\u00faineadh agus an seanm\u00f3ireacht.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
B.An B\u00edobla in Agallamh le ceisteanna an lae. Aoir\u00ed i Soisc\u00e9ala\u00edocht Nua<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tugann Soisc\u00e9al and lae inniu agus an ch\u00e9ad l\u00e9acht deis d\u00fainn machnamh a dh\u00e9anamh ar roinnt fadhbanna a bhainesann le agallamh len\u00e1r r\u00e9 f\u00e9in agus an g\u00e1 at\u00e1 ann le cuir chuige nua i bhf\u00f3gairt an tSoisc\u00e9il, soisc\u00e9ala\u00edocht nua. Mar l\u00e1rphointe don d\u00e1 l\u00e9acht t\u00e1 \u00edomh\u00e1 an aoire agus a thr\u00e9ad, p\u00e9 acu scaipthe n\u00f3 \u00e1 threor\u00fa chun f\u00e9araigh \u00far an tr\u00e9ad. De r\u00e9ir bhunbhr\u00ed na h\u00edomh\u00e1 d\u2019fh\u00e9adfadh nasc ceart a bheith idir an aoire agus na caoirigh. Cloiseann na caoirigh guith an aoire; aithn\u00edonn s\u00e9 iad agus aithnionn siad eisean. Nuair at\u00e1 ciall mheafarach na h\u00edomh\u00e1 i gceist, agus daoine daonna faoi chaibideal, d\u2019fh\u00e9adfadh c\u00farsa\u00ed a bheith n\u00edos casta. Sheasfadh \u00edomh\u00e1 an aoire do ghr\u00e1 agus c\u00faram D\u00e9 d\u00e1 phobal dleathach i gc\u00f3na\u00ed. Ach, b\u00edodh go bhfuil na \u201ccaoirigh \u201c caillte n\u00f3 scaipthe n\u00ed leanann s\u00e9 in aon chor go bhfuil sp\u00e9is acu go nd\u00e9anfa\u00ed aoireacht orthu, go h\u00e1irithe mura n-oireann teachtaireacht an \u201caoire\u201d d\u00e1 bhfuil uathu. Tharla sin i dtr\u00e1th \u00cdosa f\u00e9in. Bh\u00ed a lucht lean\u00fana aige lena bheo, ach n\u00ed raibh toradh r\u00f3-shontasach ag a theachtaireacht mar a cuireadh i l\u00e1thair \u00ed sa luath-eaglais d\u00f3ibh si\u00fad a bheadh cos\u00fail leo si\u00fad a measadh beith mar chaoirigh caillte sa Ghail\u00edl le linn mhisean \u00cdosa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
T\u00e1 cursa\u00ed a bheag n\u00f3 a mh\u00f3r mar an gc\u00e9anna in\u00e1r laethanta f\u00e9in, n\u00edos m\u00f3 agus n\u00edos pr\u00e1inn\u00ed, b\u2019fh\u00e9idir. B\u00edodh go bhfuil al\u00e1n d\u00e1r linne caillte, agus ag lorg treorach ina mbeatha, n\u00ed mhotha\u00edonn siad tarraingt i leith teachtaireacht Chr\u00edost n\u00f3 na hEaglaise. An ch\u00edor thuathail at\u00e1 ann maidir leis an m\u00e9id sin r\u00fada\u00ed, na scannail \u00e1irithe taobh istigh den Eaglais san \u00e1ireamh, chuir sin mearbhall fi\u00fa ar mhinistri creidimh chomh maith le creidmhigh d\u00edlis do chleachtadh a gcreidimh. Leagann roinnt daoine cuid mhaith den mhille\u00e1n ar cheannair\u00ed na hEaglaise. Gan dabht ar bith bh\u00ed, agus t\u00e1, laig\u00ed troma i roinnt de cheannair\u00ed na hEaglaise agus n\u00ed m\u00f3r feabhas a chur ar riarach\u00e1n na hEaglaise ag teacht leis na d\u00fashlain nua at\u00e1 ann. Ach n\u00edl s\u00e9 \u00e9asca a chinnteadh go beacht cad is ceannaireacht Eaglaise chu\u00ed ann. Sa saol poilit\u00edochta nuair a bh\u00edonn fadhb d\u00e1 leith\u00e9id ann is f\u00e9idir le taoiseach n\u00f3 ceannaire poilit\u00edochta srian a chur le ball n\u00f3 baill de ph\u00e1irti at\u00e1 ag s\u00e1r\u00fa polasa\u00ed an ph\u00e1irt\u00ed. I gc\u00farsa\u00ed eaglasta, agus an mearbhall at\u00e1 ar al\u00e1n faoi ruda\u00ed iomad\u00fala, d\u2019fh\u00e9adfadh s\u00e9 gur bot\u00fan a bheadh ann a mheas gur f\u00e9idir le ceannair\u00ed na hEaglaise r\u00e9iteach \u00e9asca a fh\u00e1il ar na fadhbanna at\u00e1 ag d\u00f3 na geirbe ar dhaoine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rud nach fol\u00e1ir a dh\u00e9anamh inniu, agus ceist a thuigeann an Eaglais de ghn\u00e1th go maith, n\u00e1 an staid ina bhfuil an Eaglais agus c\u00farsa\u00ed creidimh agus cleachtadh creidimh inniu a thuiscint agus a ini\u00fachadh go maith \u2013 atmaisf\u00e9ar gn\u00edomhach frith-reiligi\u00fain, agus d\u00e1 bharr sin an g\u00e1 at\u00e1 le soisc\u00e9ala\u00edocht nua. Bh\u00ed an tsoisc\u00e9ala\u00edocht, f\u00f3gairt an Dea-Sc\u00e9il, l\u00e1rnach do theachtaireacht \u00cdosa: \u201cT\u00e9imis as seo, isteach sna bailte m\u00f3ra at\u00e1 ar c\u00f3ngar, chun go mbeinn ag seanm\u00f3ir iontu sin freisin, mar is chuige sin a ghabh m\u00e9 amach\u201d (Marcas 1:38). Agus chomh maith le sin t\u00e1 briathra Ph\u00f3il againn: \u201cN\u00ed aon ch\u00fais mha\u00edte dom bheith ag f\u00f3gairt an dea-sc\u00e9il, mar is \u00e9 mo dhualgas \u00e9, agus is domsa is mairg mura nd\u00e9anfaidh m\u00e9 an dea-sc\u00e9al a fh\u00f3gairt\u201d (1 Corantaigh 9:16).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
