Paus: Iman bukan artifak di muzium, ia adalah saksi hidup kepada dunia

Paus bertemu penziarah Itali dari Keuskupan Spoleto-Norcia di Dewan Paul VI di Vatican (Media Vatican)

Oleh Lisa Zengarini

May 22 2023

Paus mengalu-alukan penziarah dari Keuskupan Agung Itali Spoleto-Norcia dan menggalakkan mereka untuk menemui semula dan berkongsi keindahan iman mereka dengan orang lain mengelakkan ‘keduniaan yang letih’.

Orang Kristian tidak boleh membiarkan diri mereka “terperangkap dalam ikatan keduniaan yang lelah”, tetapi dipanggil untuk “menemui semula keindahan” iman mereka yang telah mereka terima dan “untuk bersyafaat” dengan Tuhan supaya menarik orang lain kepada keindahan itu.

Paus Fransiskus membuat jemputan ini ketika dia mengalu-alukan di Vatikan pada hari Sabtu sekumpulan penziarah dari Keuskupan Spoleto-Norcia, di wilayah Itali Tengah Umbria, meraikan tahun Jubli mereka untuk ulang tahun ke-825 dedikasi Katedral Santa di bandar itu Maria Assunta.

Menyampaikan iman adalah di atas semua persoalan kecantikan

Mengambil kira keindahan Katedral Romanesque di Spoleto, salah satu tarikan utama bandar purba itu, Paus Fransiskus menyatakan bahawa “menyampaikan iman adalah di atas segalanya soal kecantikan”, sesuatu yang “tidak dapat dijelaskan”, tetapi kita mesti “bersaksi” dan yang mesti “didedahkan”, seperti “pemulih lakukan apabila dia menemui semula warna lukisan purba”.

Ini,  kata Paus,  berlaku untuk Gereja, “di mana apa yang tidak kelihatan di mata lebih berharga daripada apa yang dilihat: doa, amal yang dilakukan secara rahsia, kekuatan pengampunan, jangan jadikan muka depan, seperti don ‘bukan’ pengorbanan diri para gembala, kehidupan begitu banyak ‘orang kudus di sebelah’, kesaksian ibu bapa, keluarga, orang tua…”

“Saya ingin kamu menjadi penemu keindahan, pencari khazanah iman; bukan untuk berhenti di permukaan, tetapi untuk melihat di luar, menghargai dan menerima warisan kekudusan dan pelayanan yang merupakan kekayaan Gereja.”

Iman yang hidup bukanlah artifak di muzium

Tetapi keindahan iman, bukan sahaja perlu “ditemui semula”, ia mesti dipertingkatkan lagi, sambung Paus, kerana bukan perkara masa lalu, seperti sejenis artifak di muzium, “tetapi sentiasa tinggal di sukacita Injil, dalam masyarakat yang terdiri daripada orang-orang, dalam perhimpunan mereka yang mengalami belas kasihan dan mengenali satu sama lain melalui kasih karunia sebagai saudara dan saudari yang dikasihi oleh Tuhan”.

Keselarasan antara iman dan saksi Kristian

Paus seterusnya menyatakan bahawa mencari kecantikan akan “ke dalam hati”. Dalam Gereja ini diterjemahkan kepada kurang memfokuskan pada “aspek luaran” dan sebaliknya pada “keutamaan sebenar”: doa, amal dan pengisytiharan Injil.

Agar proklamasi ini berkesan, Gereja tidak boleh takut untuk memperbaharui kaedah penginjilan, katekesis, paderi paroki kementerian dan perkhidmatan pekerja pastoral, dengan kata lain untuk “berpindah dari penjagaan pastoral pemuliharaan, di mana orang diharapkan untuk datang bersama-sama, ke penjagaan pastoral mubaligh”, sentiasa mengingati bahawa “kesaksian kehidupan menyampaikan keindahan iman”. Kesaksian ini, Paus menegaskan, mesti sentiasa koheren dengan iman kita.

“Jika saya memanggil diri saya seorang Kristian tetapi kemudian berkelakuan tidak mengikut Kristian atau hidup dalam cara duniawi, itu tidak baik . Mesti sentiasa ada keselarasan antara apa yang saya percaya dan bagaimana saya menjalani apa yang saya percaya”

Gereja yang menjadi perantara bagi mereka yang tidak mengenal kasih Tuhan

Kata kunci lain yang disebut oleh Paus Fransiskus dalam ucapannya ialah “perantaraan”,

membawa orang lain ke hadapan Tuhan, berjuang dengan-Nya melalui doa, tahu bagaimana untuk mendesak, bukan sahaja dan bukan sahaja untuk rakan-rakan dan orang yang kita sayangi, tetapi di atas semua untuk mereka yang jauh, untuk mereka yang tidak mengenal kasih Tuhan, seperti yang Mary lakukan.

“Gereja yang bersyafaat, yang membawa dunia kepada Tuhan tanpa menjadi duniawi, adalah Gereja yang sentiasa hidup, sentiasa brsemangat, sentiasa indah.”

Sekali lagi, Paus Fransiskus menegaskan pendekatan terbuka dan dinamik yang mampu menerima perubahan, menentang keduniaan yang “penat” beralih ke masa lalu.

“Orang Kristian tidak boleh membiarkan dirinya terperangkap dalam ikatan keduniawian yang letih dan menggerunkan ini, tetapi dipanggil untuk menemukan semula keindahan yang telah dia terima melalui rahmat dan untuk menjadi perantara, iaitu, untuk menarik keindahan kepada orang lain.”

Mengakhiri ceramahnya, Paus Fransiskus menyatakan bahawa perayaan Jubli tahun ini akan membantu umat beriman di Keuskupan Spoleto-Norcia mengukuhkan akar mereka supaya mereka boleh “bersukacita dalam keindahan kasih Tuhan dan menjadi Gereja, dan merasa terpanggil untuk bersyafaat” .
