Zomwe Mulungu amavumbula zimatikhudza tonsefe

Ndi chisomo choyera kuti mwapulumutsidwa. Palibe chimene mungachite kwa inu nokha koma kudalira zimene Mulungu wakupatsani. Simunayenere kuchita kalikonse; pakuti Mulungu safuna kuti munthu anene zimene wakwanitsa kuchita pamaso pake (Aef 2,8-9 GN).

Zimakhala zosangalatsa chotani ife akhristu tikamvetsetsa chisomo! Kumvetsetsa kumeneku kumachotsa kupanikizika ndi kupsinjika komwe timadziikira tokha. Zimatipangitsa kukhala omasuka komanso osangalala Akhrisitu omwe amayang'ana kunja, osati mkati. Chisomo cha Mulungu chimatanthauza kuti chilichonse chimadalira zomwe Khristu watichitira osati zomwe timachita kapena zomwe sitingathe kudzichitira tokha. Sitingapeze chipulumutso. Nkhani yabwino ndiyakuti sitingathe kukhala nayo chifukwa Khristu adachita kale. Zomwe tiyenera kuchita ndikuvomereza zomwe Khristu watichitira ndikuwonetsa kuyamikira kwakukulu.

Koma tifunikanso kusamala! Sitiyenera kulola kuti kubisala kwa umunthu kutipangitse kuganiza modzikuza. Chisomo cha Mulungu sichimangokhala chathu chokha. Sizimatipanga kukhala opambana kuposa Akhristu omwe sanamvetsetse za chisomo, komanso sizitipangitsa kukhala abwinoko kuposa omwe siomwe sakudziwa za ichi. Kumvetsetsa kwenikweni kwa chisomo sikumabweretsa kunyada, koma ku ulemu waukulu ndi kupembedza Mulungu. Makamaka tikazindikira kuti chisomo chimapezeka kwa anthu onse, osati akhristu lero. Ikugwira ntchito kwa aliyense, ngakhale sakudziwa kalikonse za izi.

Yesu Khristu anatifera ife pamene tinali ochimwa (Aroma 5,8). Iye anafera aliyense amene ali ndi moyo lero, aliyense amene anafa, aliyense amene adzabadwe, osati ife okha amene timadzitcha Akristu lerolino. Zimenezo ziyenera kutipangitsa kukhala odzichepetsa ndi oyamikira kuchokera pansi pamtima kuti Mulungu amatikonda, amatisamalira ndi kusonyeza chidwi mwa munthu aliyense. Choncho tiyenera kuyembekezera tsiku limene Khristu adzabweranso ndipo munthu aliyense adzadziwa za chisomo.

Kodi timakambirana za chifundo ndi chisamaliro cha Mulungu ndi anthu omwe timakumana nawo? Kapena timasokonezedwa ndi mawonekedwe a munthu, komwe adachokera, maphunziro kapena mtundu wathu ndikugwera mumsampha wowaweruza ndikuwayesa iwo osafunikira komanso opanda pake kuposa momwe timadzilingalira? Monga momwe chisomo cha Mulungu chimatsegukira aliyense ndipo chimakhudza aliyense, chomwechonso tikufuna kuyesetsa kuti mitima ndi malingaliro athu akhale otseguka kwa aliyense amene tingakumane naye panjira yathu yamoyo.
