Je, Kanisa Katoliki linamwamini shetani kama mkuu wa uovu? Jibu ni Ndio,Β Swali hili limekuwa likizunguka katika vichwa vya watu, hasa wale ambao hawajui kikamilifu mafundisho ya Kanisa Katoliki. Lakini ukweli ni kwamba, Kanisa Katoliki ni kweli linaamini shetani kama mkuu wa uovu. Lakini kabisa linafundisha kuwa Mungu Kwa Wema wake na Upendo wake, anatushindia uovu huo.
Kama Wakatoliki, tunaamini katika Mungu mwenye nguvu zote, ambaye ndiye muumbaji wetu na anayetutunza sisi sote. Na kama sehemu ya imani yetu, tunaamini kuwa Mungu ni mwenye nguvu kuliko yeyote yule, ikiwa ni pamoja na shetani. Biblia inatufundisha kuwa shetani ni adui wa Mungu na wa wanadamu. Katika Yohana 10:10, Yesu anasema, "Mwizi huja ili aibe, na kuua na kuangamiza. Lakini mimi nimekuja ili wawe na uzima, na wawe nao tele."
Kanisa Katoliki linatufundisha pia kuwa shetani ni kiumbe cha Mungu, lakini amekataa upendo wa Mungu na ameamua kuzitumia nguvu zake kwa uovu. Injili ya Luka 10:18 inasema, "Akawaambia, Nalimwona Shetani akidondoka kutoka mbinguni kama umeme." Hii inaonyesha kuwa shetani alikuwa na hadhi ya juu kabla ya kuasi dhidi ya Mungu.
Kanisa Katoliki pia linaamini kuwa shetani na pepo wengine waovu wana nguvu za kiroho ambazo wanaweza kutumia kuwavuruga watu na kuwajaribu dhidi ya Mungu. Lakini tunajua pia kwamba nguvu hizi ni dhaifu mbele ya Mungu. Kama Wakatoliki, tunajua kwamba tunaweza kumshinda shetani kwa nguvu ya sala, Sakramenti, na kukubali neema ya Mungu.
Catechism ya Kanisa Katoliki inafundisha juu ya uwepo wa shetani na pepo wengine waovu, na inatuongoza kuhusu jinsi ya kukabiliana nao. Kwa mfano, Catechism inasema, "Mwanadamu anaweza kumshinda shetani kwa lugha ya ukweli, akiongozwa na Roho Mtakatifu, na kwa kuomba jina lake Yesu Kristo." (CCC 2851)
Kwa hiyo, tunapaswa kuepuka kuchukua nafasi ya shetani kama mkuu wa uovu au kutumia mafundisho ya Kanisa Katoliki vibaya. Badala yake, tunapaswa kuweka imani yetu kwa Mungu mwenye nguvu zote, ambaye anatupenda sana. Kama Wakatoliki, tunajua kwamba neema ya Mungu inaweza kutushinda dhidi ya shetani na pepo wengine waovu. Kwa hivyo, tunapaswa kumwomba Mungu daima na kumtegemea yeye katika maisha yetu yote.
Je, Kanisa Katoliki linamwamini shetani kama mkuu wa uovu?
