Emva kokufa kwabapostile bakaYesu, ekuqaleni kwenkulungwane yesibini yeXesha Eliqhelekileyo kwavela Abaseki BeCawa. INew Catholic Encyclopedia (2003), Umqulu 6, kwiphepha 687 ithi xa ichaza iimfundiso zabo: “Eyona nto yayifundiswa yayikukuba uyolo lwasezulwini lufunyanwa ngumphefumlo ophume emzimbeni ngoko nangoko emva kokuba uye wahlanjululwa.”

“Banoyolo abo banomoya wobulali, kuba baya kuwudla ilifa umhlaba.”—Mateyu 5:5.

Nangona uYesu wathembisa abafundi bakhe ukuba wayeza kubalungiselela indawo ezulwini, akazange athi bonke abantu abalungileyo baza kuya apho. (Yohane 3:13; 14:2, 3) Khumbula ukuba uYesu wathandazela ukuba ukuthanda kukaThixo “kwenziwe emhlabeni, njengasezulwini.” (Mateyu 6:9, 10) Amalungisa aza kuya kwiindawo ezimbini. Iqaqobana lawo liza kulawula ezulwini noKristu, aze amaninzi kuwo aphile apha emhlabeni ngonaphakade.—ISityhilelo 5:10.

Njengoko iminyaka yayihamba, icawa yayitshintsha indima yayo emhlabeni. Lwaphumela entwenini olo tshintsho? IThe New Encyclopædia Britannica ithi: “Icawa yabuthathela indawo uBukumkani bukaThixo obabulindelwe ngabantu.” Icawa yafumana amandla angakumbi ngokungenelela kwipolitiki, ngaloo ndlela igatya isiluleko sikaYesu esicacileyo sokuba abalandeli bakhe babengafanele babe ‘yinxalenye yehlabathi.’ (Yohane 15:19; 17:14-16; 18:36) Icawa yaphenjelelwa nguMlawuli waseRoma uConstantine ukuba ingxenge ezinye zeenkolelo zayo, kuquka nokuba unjani kanye kanye uThixo.
