Kuuka kwa akufa: Ntchito yatheka
Pa Chikondwerero cha Masika timakumbukira makamaka imfa ndi kuuka kwa Mpulumutsi wathu, Yesu Khristu. Tchuthi chimenechi chimatilimbikitsa kuganizira kwambiri za Mpulumutsi wathu komanso chipulumutso chimene watipatsa. Nsembe, nsembe, zopsereza, ndi nsembe zauchimo zinalephera kutigwirizanitsa ndi Mulungu. Koma nsembe ya Yesu Kristu inabweretsa chiyanjanitso chenicheni kamodzi kokha. Yesu ananyamula machimo a munthu aliyense pa mtanda, ngakhale ambiri sanazindikire kapena kuvomereza izi. “Kenako (Yesu) anati, Taonani, ndabwera kudzachita chifuniro chanu. Kenako akutenga yoyamba kuti agwiritse ntchito yachiwiri. Mogwirizana ndi chifuniro chimenechi tinayeretsedwa kamodzi kokha kudzera m’nsembe ya thupi la Yesu Khristu.” (Aheb 10,9-10 ndi).
Ntchito yatha, mphatso yakonzeka. Poyerekeza ndi kuti ndalama zili kale ku banki, tiyenera kungotenga: "Iye yekha ndiye chiwombolo cha machimo athu, osati chifukwa cha machimo athu okha, komanso a dziko lonse lapansi" (1. Johannes 2,2).
Chikhulupiriro chathu sichimathandiza chilichonse pakuchita bwino kwa ntchito imeneyi, komanso sichiyesa kupeza mphatso imeneyi. Ndi chikhulupiriro timavomereza mphatso ya mtengo wapatali ya chiyanjanitso ndi Mulungu yoperekedwa kwa ife kudzera mwa Yesu Khristu. Tikamaganizira za kuukitsidwa kwa Mpulumutsi wathu, timakhala ndi chikhumbo chodumpha mosangalala chifukwa chiukiriro chake chimatipatsa chiyembekezo chosangalatsa cha kuuka kwathu. Kotero ife tikukhala kale mu moyo watsopano ndi Khristu lero.
Cholengedwa chatsopano
Chipulumutso chathu tingachifotokoze monga cholengedwa chatsopano. Ndi Mtumwi Paulo tikhoza kuvomereza kuti munthu wakale anafa ndi Khristu: “Chifukwa chake ngati munthu aliyense ali mwa Khristu ali wolengedwa watsopano; zakale zapita, taonani, zafika;2. Akorinto 5,17). Timakhala munthu watsopano, wobadwanso mwauzimu ndi umunthu watsopano.
Ichi ndichifukwa chake kupachikidwa kwake kuli kofunika kwambiri kwa ife. Tinapachikidwa naye pamtanda pamene munthu wakale, wochimwayo anafera naye limodzi ndipo tsopano tili ndi moyo watsopano ndi Khristu woukitsidwayo. Pali kusiyana pakati pa munthu wakale ndi munthu watsopano. Khristu ndi chifaniziro cha Mulungu ndipo tinalengedwa kwatsopano m’chifanizo chake. Chikondi cha Mulungu kwa ife n’chachikulu kwambiri moti anatumiza Khristu kuti atipulumutse kuumauma ndi kudzikonda kwathu.
Timapeza kale tanthauzo la tanthauzo lathu mu Masalmo: “Pakuona ine thambo, ntchito ya zala zanu, mwezi ndi nyenyezi, zimene munazikhazika: munthu ndani kuti mumkumbukira, inu mumamulandira? Mwamuchepetsa pang’ono ndi Mulungu; mwamuveka korona wa ulemu ndi ulemerero.” (Sal 8,4-6 ndi).
Kusinkhasinkha za zinthu zakuthambo—mwezi ndi nyenyezi—ndi kusinkhasinkha kukula kwa chilengedwe chonse ndi mphamvu yochititsa mantha ya nyenyezi iliyonse kumadzutsa funso lakuti chifukwa chiyani Mulungu amatisamalira. Chifukwa cha chilengedwe chodabwitsachi, zikuwoneka zovuta kulingalira kuti Iye angatimvetsere ndi kukhala ndi chidwi ndi aliyense wa ife.
munthu ndi chiyani?
Anthufe timaimira chododometsa, kumbali ina chokhudzidwa kwambiri ndi machimo, kumbali ina motsogoleredwa ndi zofuna za makhalidwe abwino pa ife tokha. Sayansi imatchula anthu kuti “homo sapiens,” mbali ya nyama, pamene Baibulo limatiuza kuti “nephesh,” mawu amenenso amagwiritsidwa ntchito ponena za nyama. Tinapangidwa ndi fumbi ndipo timabwerera ku mkhalidwe umenewo mu imfa.
Koma malinga ndi kaonedwe ka Baibulo, sitili nyama chabe: “Mulungu adalenga munthu m’chifanizo chake, m’chifanizo cha Mulungu adamlenga iye; ndipo adawalenga iwo mwamuna ndi mkazi” (1. Cunt 1,27). Monga cholengedwa chapadera cha Mulungu, chopangidwa m’chifanizo cha Mulungu, amuna ndi akazi ali ndi kuthekera kofanana kwauzimu. Maudindo a anthu sayenera kufooketsa uzimu wa munthu. Munthu aliyense ayenera chikondi, ulemu ndi ulemu. Genesis amamaliza ndi mawu akuti chilichonse cholengedwa chinali “chabwino ndithu,” monga mmene Mulungu ankafunira.
Koma zoona zake n’zakuti pali chinachake cholakwika ndi anthu. Chinalakwika ndi chiyani? Baibulo limafotokoza kuti cholengedwa changwiro choyambirira chinapotozedwa ndi Kugwa: Adamu ndi Hava anadya chipatso cha mtengo woletsedwa, kuchititsa anthu kupandukira Mlengi wawo ndi kusankha kuchita njira yawoyawo.
Chizindikiro choyamba cha tchimo lawo chinali malingaliro opotoka: iwo mwadzidzidzi anapeza maliseche awo osayenera: “Ndipo maso awo onse aŵiri anatseguka, ndipo anawona kuti anali amaliseche, ndipo iwo analuka masamba a mkuyu pamodzi ndi kudzipangira iwo epuloni.”1. Cunt 3,7). Iwo anazindikira kutayika kwa unansi wawo wapamtima ndi Mulungu. Iwo ankaopa kukumana ndi Mulungu ndipo anabisala. Moyo weniweni wogwirizana ndi chikondi ndi Mulungu unatha pa nthawiyo – mwauzimu iwo anali atafa: “Tsiku limene udzadya za mtengowo, udzafa ndithu;1. Cunt 2,17).
Chimene chinatsala chinali kukhala ndi moyo wakuthupi, kutali kwambiri ndi moyo wokhutiritsa umene Mulungu anawafunira. Adamu ndi Hava akuimira anthu onse pakupandukira Mlengi wawo; Choncho, uchimo ndi imfa zimadziwika ndi anthu onse.
dongosolo la chipulumutso
Vuto la umunthu lagona pakulephera kwathu ndi kulakwa kwathu, osati mwa Mulungu. Zinapereka chiyambi chabwino, koma anthufe tinachitaya. Komabe Mulungu amafikira kwa ife ndipo ali ndi dongosolo kwa ife. Yesu Kristu, Mulungu monga munthu, akuimira chifaniziro changwiro cha Mulungu ndipo amatchedwa “Adamu wotsiriza”. Iye anakhala munthu kotheratu, nasonyeza kumvera kotheratu ndi kukhulupirira Atate wake wakumwamba, ndipo chotero amapereka chitsanzo kwa ife: “Munthu woyamba, Adamu, anakhala wamoyo, ndi Adamu wotsirizayo anakhala mzimu wamoyo.” ( 1 Yoh.1. Korinto 15,45).
Monga momwe Adamu anadzetsera imfa padziko lapansi, Yesu anatsegula njira ya kumoyo. Iye ndiye chiyambi cha umunthu watsopano, cholengedwa chatsopano mmene aliyense adzakhalitsidwanso ndi moyo kudzera mwa iye. Kupyolera mwa Yesu Kristu, Mulungu akulenga munthu watsopano amene uchimo ndi imfa sizikhalanso ndi mphamvu pa iye. Chigonjetso chapambana, yesero lakanidwa. Yesu anabwezeretsa moyo wotayika chifukwa cha uchimo: “Ine ndine kuuka ndi moyo. Aliyense wokhulupirira mwa ine, ngakhale amwalire, adzakhala ndi moyo.” ( Yoh 11,25).
Kupyolera mu chikhulupiriro cha Yesu Kristu, Paulo anakhala cholengedwa chatsopano. Kusintha kwauzimu kumeneku kumakhudza kaganizidwe ndi khalidwe lake: “Ndapachikidwa pamodzi ndi Khristu. ndiri ndi moyo, koma tsopano si ine, koma Khristu ali ndi moyo mwa ine. Pakuti chimene ndikukhala nacho tsopano m’thupi, ndili nacho mwa chikhulupiriro cha Mwana wa Mulungu, amene anandikonda, nadzipereka yekha chifukwa cha ine.” ( Agalatiya 2,19-20 ndi).
Ngati tili mwa Khristu, tidzakhalanso ndi chifaniziro cha Mulungu pakuuka kwa akufa. Malingaliro athu sangamvetse bwino momwe izi zidzawonekera. Sitikudziwanso bwino lomwe "thupi lauzimu" limawonekera; koma tikudziwa kuti zidzakhala zodabwitsa. Mulungu wathu wacifundo na wacikondi adzatidalitsa ndi cimwemwe coculuka, ndipo tidzam’tamanda kosatha!
Chikhulupiriro cha Yesu Khristu ndi ntchito yake m’miyoyo yathu zimatithandiza kugonjetsa kupanda ungwiro kwathu ndi kudzisintha tokha kukhala umunthu umene Mulungu akufuna kuwona mwa ife: “Koma ife tonse, ndi nkhope zathu zosaphimbidwa, tionetsa ulemerero wa Ambuye; akusandulika m’chifanizo chake, kuchokera ku ulemerero kumka ku ulemerero wa Ambuye, amene ali Mzimu.”2. Akorinto 3,18).
Ngakhale kuti sitinaone chifaniziro cha Mulungu mu ulemerero wake wonse, tikutsimikiziridwa kuti tidzachiwona tsiku lina: “Monga tinabvala chifaniziro cha wapadziko lapansi, chotero tidzavalanso chifaniziro cha wakumwambayo.”1. Korinto 15,49).
Matupi athu oukitsidwa adzakhala ngati a Yesu Kristu: aulemerero, amphamvu, auzimu, akumwamba, osavunda ndi osakhoza kufa. Yohane anati: “Okondedwa, ndife ana a Mulungu; koma sichinawonekere chomwe tidzakhala. Tidziwa kuti pamene bvumbulutsidwa, tidzakhala monga ilo; pakuti tidzamuwona Iye monga ali” (1. Johannes 3,2).
Mumaona chiyani mukakumana ndi munthu? Kodi mukuwona chifaniziro cha Mulungu, ukulu wothekera, kapangidwe ka chifaniziro cha Khristu? Kodi mukuona dongosolo lokongola la Mulungu likugwira ntchito popereka chisomo kwa ochimwa? Kodi mumakondwera kuti amaombola anthu osokera? Kodi mumakondwera kuti amaombola anthu osokera? Mapulani a Mulungu ndi odabwitsa kwambiri kuposa nyenyezi ndipo ndi ochititsa chidwi kwambiri kuposa chilengedwe chonse. Tiyeni tisangalale mu zikondwerero za masika, mwa Ambuye ndi Mpulumutsi wathu, Yesu Khristu. Muthokozeni chifukwa cha nsembe yake ya kwa inu, yomwe ili yokwanira kwa dziko lonse lapansi. Mwa Yesu muli ndi moyo watsopano!
