Mutagatifu Aniseti, Papa (+166)

Aniseti yavukiye i Emeze (Émèse) ubu ni ahitwa Homs mu gihugu cya Siriya. Yabaye umushumba wa Kiliziya Gatolika hagati y’umwaka w’155 n’uw’166 asimbuye Papa Pio I. Aniseti ni umupapa wa 11. Yayoboye Kiliziya mu bihe byayo bikomeye by’itotezwa, hakiyongeraho kandi ko muri icyo gihe hari hadutse ubuyobe (Gnosticisme) bwazanywe n’uwitwa Marisiyoni (Marcion) n’uwitwa Valentini kandi na bo babaga i Roma. Ubwo buyobe bumeze nk’idini rishya bwari bwakwirakwijwe mu mujyi wa Roma n’umugore witwaga Marselina, kandi abantu bari batangiye kumukurikira.

Uretse n’uko ukwemera kwabo kwari kuyobye, batanganga ingero mbi z’imibereho. bahakanaga ko ingabire y’ukwemera itangwa n’Imana bemeza ko ukwemera kuzanwa n’ubwenge gusa. Bigishaga ubuhakana Mana Muremyi, cyane cyane kwangisha abantu Bibiliya: Isezerano rya Kera. Papa Aniseti yarengeye Kiliziya n’imbaraga ze zose abuza ubwo buyobe, akoresheje inyigisho ntagatifu, ndetse Imana imufasha ibyutsa abantu benshi b’abatagatifu abantu b’Imana bagombaga kureberaho. Ni ku ngoma ye mutagatifu Yustini yagiye i Roma yandika igitabo kigamije kurengera Kiliziya (Apologie), icyo gitabo akaba yarakizize, bikamuviramo kwicwa ahowe Imana.

Muri icyo gihe kandi mu w’157, Aniseti yategetse uwitwaga Hegezipe (Hegesippe wari umuyahudi w’i Yeruzalemu wakiriye Ivanjili) kwandika amateka ya Kiliziya kuva kuri Mutagatifu Petero kugeza icyo gihe. Ayo mateka ni na yo uwitwa Flaviyusi Yozefu yahereyeho yandika amateka tubonamo n’aya Kiliziya. Ayo mateka ya Hegezipe yarwanyije bwa buyobe. Bavuga ko Aniseti yayoboye neza ku ngoma ye. Ikindi kivugwa kuri Aniseti ni impaka yagiye na mutagatifu Polikarpe umwepiskopi wa Simirine (muri Turukiya y’ubu) zerekeye itariki Pasika ikwiye guhimbarizwaho. Uyu Polikarupe akaba yari umwigishwa wa Yohani Intumwa ya Yezu Kristu. Icyakora Aniseti yamubwiye gukomeza kuyigira ku munsi basanzwe bayizihirizaho Iburasirazuba, Iburengerazuba na bo bagakomeza kuyigira ku munsi bari basanganywe.

Inama nkuru ya Kiliziya yabereye i Nise ni yo yemeje igihe Pasika izajya iberaho iteka muri Kiliziya gatolika hose. Mu gihe rero mutagatifu Polikarupe yari agiye gusubira Iburasirazuba, yahimbaje igitambo cy’Ukarisitiya ari Kumwe na Papa Aniseti maze Papa amusaba kwigisha imbaga yari yaje mu misa. Inyigisho nziza cyane ya Polikarupe yacengeye mu mitima y’abari bayobye bakurikiye Marisiyoni, maze barahinduka bagaruka mu nzira nziza. Icyo gihe Marisiyoni yarakariye Polikarupe, maze Polikarupe aramubwira ati: “ n’ubusanzwe nari nzi ko uri umwana w’imfura wa Shitani.”

Bavuga ko Papa Aniseti yabujije abapadiri bo mu Bufaransa kutagira imisatsi miremire nk’uko bari babyihangishijeho, ahubwo bakajya biyogoshesha ikamba rizengurutse ku mutwe (Tonsura). Bavuga kandi ko ari we washyizeho ko umupadiri uhabwa ubwepiskopi azajya abuhabwa nibura hari abepiskopi batatu. Ibyo ni byo Inama nkuru ya Niseya yaje gushimangira, kandi ko ku bijyanye n’itangwa ry’ubwepiskopi kuri Arikiyepiskopi, abepiskopi bose bo mu karere k’ubutumwa aherereyemo bose bagomba kuba bahari. Aniseti yaharaniye bikomeye ubusugire bwa Kiliziya Gatolika kandi ashimwa na bose.

Ni na yo mpamvu bamubariye kare mu mubare w’abapapa b’abatagatifu. Mu nyandiko nyinshi bavuga ko yapfuye ahowe Imana mu mwaka w’166. Bavuga kandi ko amaze gupfa yahambwe iruhande rw’imva ya Petero Intumwa. Tumwizihiza ku itariki 17 Mata.

Mutagatifu Sesiliya, Uwahowe Imana (+230)

Sesiliya ni umwe mu batagatifu abakritu benshi bakunda cyane kandi babaye ikuzo rya Kiliziya. Yavukiye i Roma, ababyeyi be akaba ariho bari batuye. Ni we wenyine wari umukristu mu rugo iwabo. Kuva yahabwa batisimu, yari yarasezeranye kuziyegurira Imana ntiyigere ashaka umugabo. Nyamara amaze kuba inkumi, iwabo bamuhatiye kurongorwa n’umusore Valeriyani wakomokaga mu muryango ukomeye i Roma. Uwo musore yari atarabatizwa. Sesiliya abura uko abigenza aremera Ubukwe burataha. Igihe ariko abakwe baririmbaga bizihiza igitaramo, Sesiliya umutima we waririmbiraga Nyagasani ibisingizo.

Ninayo mpamvu bamwita umurinzi w’abaririmbyi ba Kiliziya. Nuko rero abakwe bikubuye, asigarana n’umugabo we, aramubwira ati: “Umva rero, menya ko ngukunda rwose. Ariko mfite ibanga rikomeye nshaka kukumenyesha! Undahire ko utazarimena”. Valeriyani aramurahira. Sesiliya ati: “mfite amasezerano nasezeranyije Nyagasani kandi ndinzwe n’Umumalayika We. Abonye ko unkunda byo kuntesha ubusugi bwanjye, yandengera maze akagukorera ishyano. Naho rero nabona ko unyubahiye ubusugi, Nyagasani azagutonesha nk’uko yantonesheje”. Valeriyani bimutera ubwoba, arihangana ariko abwira Sesiliya ati: “kugira ngo nkwemere, banza unyereke uwo mumalayika”.

Sesiliya ati : “ niwemera Imana ukabatizwa, uzabona Malayika murinzi wanjye”. Hashize iminsi Valeriyani arabatizwa, nuko bidatinze Imana ikora igitangaza, Malayika wa Nyagasani amwiyereka afite amakamba abiri, rimwe aryambika Sesiliya, irindi aryambika Valeriyani. Ibyo byishimo Valeriyani ntiyatinze kubigaragariza murumuna we Tiburisi yakundaga cyane. Kuva ubwo Tiburisi na we yemera kwigishwa arabatizwa. Ariko kubera ko abategetsi bakuru batotezaga abakristu, abanzi ba Kiliziya ntibatinze kubahemukira; nuko abo bavandimwe bombi barafatwa baricwa. Sesiliya na we arafatwa, umucamanza amubaza uko yitwa. Undi ati: “abantu banyita Sesiliya ariko rero izina nkunda ni iry’uko ndi umukristu”.

Nuko bamufungira mu nzu ishyushye cyane, ngo yicwe n’imyotsi n’ubushyuhe. Nyamara Nyagasani amukorera igitangaza ntiyagira icyo aba. Nibwo umucamanza arushijeho kurakara, nuko ategeka ko bamuca umutwe. Cyakora babikorana ubwoba bwinshi ntiyapfa ako kanya, apfa hashize iminsi itatu. Abantu batangiye kumwiyambaza kuva kera. Umunsi mukuru we wizihizwaga kuva kera, muri 545, muri Bazilika yamwitiriwe iri i Roma (Trastevere).

Bavuga kandi ko Sesiliya yaba yarashyinguwe mu irimbi ryitiriwe Mutagatifu. Kalisiti, mu mwanya w’icyubahiro iruhande rw’aho bita “Cripte des papes”, akaba yarahimuwe ku bwa Papa Paskali wa mbere igihe yamujyanaga muri Cripte ya Bazilika y’i Trastevere.

Mutagatifu Benedigito Yozefu Labre (1748-1783)

Benedigito Labre yavukiye ahitwa Ameti (Amettes) mu Bufransa ku itariki ya 26 Gicurasi 1748. Ababyeyi be bari abahinzi, bakaba abakirisitu beza cyane. Yari imfura  mu bana 14 iwabo mu rugo. Akiri muto yabereye urugero rwiza barumuna be muri byose. Gusenga kwe kwa kimalayika, ukumvira kwe n’umwete we bitangaje bituma benshi bemera kare ko ijisho ry’Imana rimuriho, ko Imana yamutoye ngo ayibere umuhamya mu bihe bikomeye, kuko icyo gihe hari imidugararo mibi yari imaze gukwira Uburayi iturutse mu gihugu cy’Ubufaransa.

Amaze kugira imyaka 12 ababyeyi be bamuhaye umupadiri wari umubereye se wabo ngo amubarerere. Benedigito ntiyashoboye kuhatinda kuko hateye indwara y’icyorezo, uwo mupadiri akitanga, akirirwa mu barwayi, akarara abitaho, kugeza igihe na we afatiwe, iyo ndwara ikamwica. Nuko Benedigito bamuha undi se wabo utaramukundaga, amufata nabi cyane, ariko Benedigito arabyishimira. Aboneraho kugira ngo yimenyereze kwiyumanganya iteka no kwitura ineza abamugirira nabi.

Yujuje imyaka 14, ni bwo yumvise anyuzwe n’imibereho ya mutagatifu Fransisiko w’Asizi, nuko kuva ubwo atangira gushakashaka uko na we yanyura muri iyo nzira ngo yitagatifuze. Yashakaga kwinjira muri monasitere ifite amategeko akaze cyane. Aho agerageje gukomanga hose bakamuhindira kure babona ko ahari atabishobora. We  ariko ntiyigeze yiheba  ahubwo yakomeje gusaba Imana ngo imwereke inzira akwiye kunyura. Imana yamwumvishije ko agomba kugenza nk’abamonaki ariko ari mu buzima busanzwe.

Yigiriye  inama yo kuzasura kiliziya nkuru cyane zizwi mu bihugu by’Uburayi ashoboye kugeraho n’amaguru. Nuko igihe yujuje imyaka 22 arahaguruka ashyira nzira aragenda, agenda yambaye ibicocero, nta mpamba, ahetse umufuka wuzuye amabuye ngo yihane, arara aho bwije. Arambagira Ubufransa, aragenda no mu Busuwisi, muri Hispaniya, mu Budage, no mu Butaliyani. Ariko yibanda cyane cyane i Roma. Muri izo kiliziya zose yanyuraga mo, yabaga ajyanywe no gusenga. Mu nzira na ho yagendanaga ishapule mu ntoki, ayivuga nubwo bwose akenshi yabaga ashonje. Imvura, imbeho, imivumbi mibi, inzara, umunaniro, nta cyamuhagarikaga ataragera aho ajya.

Ukwibabaza yakunganyije na bake. Yatungwaga n’ibyo yasabirije. Yamaraga amasaha menshi imbere y’Isakaramentu Ritagatifu. I Roma yatangariwe na bose kubera ukwitagatifuza kwe, ndetse bakavuga ko ari umuntu Imana yatoye ngo yibabaze kubera ibyaha by’abantu byari byogeye bitewe cyane cyane n’amajyambere y’ibyaduka by’icyo gihe, ni yo mpamvu inkuru y’urupfu rwe ku 16 Mata 1783 yasakaye mu mujyi hose maze abantu benshi bakamuririra cyane. Ni Papa Lewo wa XIII wamwanditse mu gitabo cy’abatagatifu ku itariki 8 Ukuboza mu w’1881.

Mutagatifu Egisipediti (+303), Uwahowe Imana

Ishusho ya Egisipediti

Egisipediti yari umusirikare w’umunyaroma. Yari akunzwe kubera ukuntu yari ashoboye byinshi mu gisirikare n’ukuntu yari azi gufata ibyemezo byiza ku buryo bwihuse. Ni muri ubwo buryo yahawe kuyobora umutwe w’abasirikare bazi kurwana ku buryo buhambaye muri icyo gihe. Uwo mutwe wari ugizwe ahanini n’abasirikare b’abakirisitu bakomokaga mu gihugu cya Arumeniya.

Uwo mutwe warindaga umupaka w’iburasirazuba bw’ubwami bwa Roma, bakanarinda umujyi wa Yeruzalemu abanyamusozi (barbares) bawuhozaga ku nkeke. Uwo mutwe w’abasirikare b’abakirisitu kandi bigeze kurwanirira umwami batahana intsinzi ku buryo bw’igitangaza barengera umwami Mariko-Oreli. Egisipediti amaze kumenya Ivanjili, yahindutse umukirisitu abatizwa bidatinze.

Uko gufata icyemezo cyiza byihuse byamurangaga igihe cyose, byatumaga akurikirana ikintu cyose kiri mu mucyo. Abandi basirikare bari baramugiriye inama yo kutaba umukirisitu. Kandi muri icyo gihe abakirisitu bari basuzuguritse kandi bagatotezwa. Icyo gihe i Bizanse (mu mujyi mukuru wa Roma y’Iburasirazuba), umwami w’abami waho atangira umugambi ukomeye wo gutoteza abakirisitu agiriwe inama n’uwitwaga Galeri umujyanama we. Icyo gihe, bareze Egisipediti ku mwami bamubeshyera ngo ahatira abasirikare guhinduka abakirisitu, nuko baramufata bamufungira ahitwa Melitene, umujyi wari ku mupaka wa Turukiya na Armeniya.

Icyo gihe yafunganywe n’abandi bakirisitu b’abanyaroma bavaga muri Turukiya na Arumeniya. Muri abo harimo uwitwaga Petero, umudiyakoni wa kiliziya Egisipediti yasengeragamo. Icyo gihe bafunze kandi na Herimojene wari umugaragu we. Bahatiye mutagatifu Egisipediti guhakana ubukirisitu maze yanga guhakana. Nuko ku itariki 19 Mata mu mwaka wa 303, Egisipediti baramufashe bamukubitisha ibiboko, barangije bamuca umutwe.

Amateka ya mutagatifu Egisipediti atwibutsa ko ari ngombwa kuyoborwa n’ukwemera gutagatifu kandi ugakora igikwiye byihuse utagombye gutegereza ejo. Ishami ry’umuzeti rigaragara mu kiganza cye, rigaragaza umutsindo w’ubukirisitu. Inkuru zivuga ubuzima bwa mutagatifu Egisipediti tuzisanga mu nyandiko z’ubuzima bw’abatagatifu bwanditswe na mutagatifu Yeronimo mu gisekuruza cya V.

Abakirisitu bakunze kwiyambaza mutagatifu Egisipediti iyo basaba Imana ibintu bumva ko byihutirwa harimo imanza, ingamba z’ubuyobozi, amadeni n’inguzanyo za banki, iyo bitegura ibizamini byo mu ishuri ndetse n’iby’imodoka. Bamwiyambaza kandi iyo habaye intonganya mu bavandimwe no mu baturanyi. Bakunze kumwiyambaza kandi ngo abarinde agisida iyo bagiye mu rugendo, n’iyo bibasiwe n’abashobora kubaroga. Ni umurinzi w’urubyiruko kuko yahowe Imana akiri umusore.

Mutagatifu Perifegiti (Parfait), Umusaseridoti wahowe Imana

Mutagatifu Perifegiti (mu kilatini bikaba Perfectus), yavukiye i Korudu (Cordoue) muri Hispaniya y’ubu. Aho uwo mujyi umariye gutsindwa n’abayisilamu, arerwa n’abapadiri ba Kiliziya ya mutagatifu Asikili (Aciscle). Yiga cyane cyane ibitabo bitagatifu. Aho abereye umusaseridoti yihata cyane kwigisha no gukomeza abakirisitu batotezwaga n’abayisilamu. Igihe yigishaga abayisilamu Ivanjili yabaga azi ko ashobora kwicwa. Icyo gihe akarere kose k’amajyepfo ya Hispaniya kitwaga Andaluziya (Andalousie: Al-Andalus) kari karigaruriwe n’abayisilamu, bakihanganira ko abakirisitu babaho ariko badasengera ku mugaragaro.

Rimwe Perifegiti ahura n’abayisilamu babiri mu nzira bamubaza icyo atekereza kuri Muhamedi no kuri Yezu, ariko bamubwira gusa ko bashaka ko abahugura, ko icyo bashaka ari ukumenya. Abasobanurira gusa ibyo Kiliziya yigisha byerekeye Ubumana bwa Yezu n’uburyo ari we mukiza w’abantu wenyine. Naho ku byerekeye Muhamedi, arabihorera gusa kugira ngo atabarakariza ubusa. Barakomeza ariko bati: “humura tubwire icyo namwe abakirisitu mumuvugaho.”

Ababwira ko mu maso y’abakirisitu bose Muhamedi ari umuhanuzi w’ibinyoma; arangiza abasaba kureka idini rya Muhamedi ngo bemere iy’ukuri ya Kristu yashobora kubakiza. Bashaka kumufata, ariko bibuka ko bari bamusezeranyije kutarakara nababwira ukuri. Nuko barahaguruka barigendera, ariko bagenda amagambo ababwiye abarya. Perifegiti yisubirira muri monasiteri ye amahoro.

Hashize iminsi mike, ba bayisilamu babwira abandi bagenzi babo ngo bajye gufata Perifegiti (kuko bo bari barahiriye kutamufata). Perifegiti arafatwa bamurega ko yabatukiye umuhanuzi. Perifegiti arafungwa. Bamucira urubanza rwo gupfa, barindira ariko ko Pasika igera ngo abe ari ho bamwica. Uwo munsi mukuru wa Pasika ugeze bamukura mu buroko bajya kumwica. Nuko apfira Imana asingiza izina rya Yezu, avuma Muhamedi n’inyigisho ze zose.

Perifegiti ari mu bakirisitu ba mbere bishwe n’abayisilamu muri iyo ntangiriro y’itotezwa ryatangiye muri icyo gihe rikageza mu myaka ya 960. Abakirisitu bamushyinguye muri Kiliziya ya Mutagatifu Asikili. Twizihiza mutagatifu Perifegiti ku itariki 18 Mata.
