Kodi chipulumutso ndi chiyani?

Ndichifukwa chiyani ndikukhala moyo Kodi moyo wanga uli ndi cholinga? Kodi chidzandichitikire ndi chiyani ndikamwalira? Mafunso oyambira omwe aliyense adadzifunsapo kale. Mafunso omwe tikupatseni yankho apa, yankho lomwe liyenera kuwonetsa: Inde, moyo uli ndi tanthauzo; inde, pali moyo pambuyo pa imfa. Palibe chomwe chili chotetezeka kuposa imfa. Tsiku lina timalandira nkhani yoopsa kuti wokondedwa wamwalira. Mwadzidzidzi zimatikumbutsa kuti ifenso tiyenera kufa mawa, chaka chamawa kapena theka la zana. Kuopa kufa kunachititsa kuti Ponce de Leon, yemwe anali mgonjetsi, asaka kasupe wachinyamata. Koma wokolola sangathe kubweza. Imfa imabwera kwa aliyense. 

Anthu ambiri masiku ano akuyembekeza za kutukula moyo wa asayansi komanso waluso. Zimakhala zosangalatsa chotani nanga ngati asayansi atapeza zinthu zomwe zingachedwetse kukalamba kapena ngakhale kuziletsa kumene! Iyi ikhala nkhani yayikulu kwambiri komanso yolandiridwa mwansangala m'mbiri yapadziko lonse lapansi.

Komabe, ngakhale m'dziko lathu lamakono apamwamba kwambiri, anthu ambiri amazindikira kuti ili ndi loto losatheka. Ambiri motero amadalira chiyembekezo cha kupulumuka pambuyo pa imfa. Mwina ndinu m'modzi mwa anthu chiyembekezo. Kodi sizingakhale zabwino ngati moyo wa munthu udalidi ndi tsogolo labwino? Malo omwe amaphatikizapo moyo wosatha? Chiyembekezo chimenecho chagona mu chikonzero cha Mulungu cha chipulumutso.

Ndithudi, Mulungu amafuna kupatsa anthu moyo wosatha. Mtumwi Paulo akulemba kuti Mulungu, amene samanama, analonjeza chiyembekezo cha moyo wosatha ... kwa nthawi zakale (Tito 1: 2).

Kwinanso analemba kuti Mulungu amafuna kuti anthu onse apulumuke ndi kuti adziwe choonadi (1. (Timoteo 2:4, omasulira ambiri). Kupyolera mu Uthenga Wabwino wa chipulumutso, wolalikidwa ndi Yesu Khristu, chisomo cha Mulungu chinaonekera kwa anthu onse (Tito 2:11).

Kuweruzidwa kuti aphedwe

Tchimo lidabwera padziko lapansi m'munda wa Edeni. Adamu ndi Hava adachimwa, ndipo mbadwa zawo zatsatira zomwezo. Mu Aroma 3, Paulo akufotokoza kuti anthu onse ndi ochimwa.

• Palibe amene ali wolungama (vesi 10)
• Palibe amene angafunse za Mulungu (vesi 11)
• Palibe amene amachita zabwino (vesi 12)
• Palibe kuopa Mulungu (vesi 18).

... onse ndi ochimwa ndipo alibe ulemerero umene ayenera kukhala nawo ndi Mulungu, Paulo akunena (v. 23). Amatchula zoipa zomwe zimachokera ku kulephera kwathu kugonjetsa uchimo - kuphatikizapo kaduka, kuphana, chiwerewere, ndi chiwawa (Aroma 1: 29-31).

Mtumwi Petro akulankhula za zofooka zaumunthu zimenezi kukhala zilakolako zakuthupi zimene zimalimbana ndi moyo ( Yoh.1. Petro 2:11 ); Paulo akulankhula za iwo ngati zilakolako zauchimo (Aroma 7:5). Akunena kuti munthu amakhala motsatira chikhalidwe cha dziko lapansi ndipo amafuna kuchita chifuniro cha thupi ndi maganizo ( Aefeso 2: 2-3 ). Ngakhale zochita ndi malingaliro abwino koposa aumunthu samachita chilungamo ku chimene Baibulo limatcha chilungamo.

Lamulo la Mulungu limatanthauzira tchimo

Tanthauzo la kuchimwa, kutanthauza kuchita zosemphana ndi chifuniro cha Mulungu, tingathe kumasulira mosagwirizana ndi maziko a lamulo laumulungu. Lamulo la Mulungu limaonetsa khalidwe la Mulungu. Zimakhazikitsa mayendedwe a khalidwe la munthu wopanda uchimo. …Mphotho ya uchimo, Paulo akulemba kuti, ndi imfa (Aroma 6:23). Kugwirizana kumeneku kwa uchimo kumakhala ndi chilango cha imfa kunayamba ndi makolo athu oyamba Adamu ndi Hava. Paulo akutiuza kuti: ... monga uchimo unalowa m’dziko lapansi mwa munthu mmodzi [Adamu], ndi imfa mwa uchimo, chotero imfa inafikira anthu onse, chifukwa kuti onse anachimwa ( Aroma 5:12 ).

Mulungu yekha ndi amene angatipulumutse

Mphotho yake, chilango cha tchimo, ndi imfa, ndipo tonse ndife oyenera chifukwa tonse tachimwa. Palibe chomwe tingachite tokha kuti tipewe kufa. Sitingathe kuchita ndi Mulungu. Tilibe chilichonse choti timupatse. Ngakhale ntchito zabwino sizingatipulumutse ku tsogolo lathu. Palibe chomwe tingachite patokha chomwe chingasinthe kupanda ungwiro kwathu kwauzimu.

Mkhalidwe wodekha, koma kumbali ina tili ndi chiyembekezo chotsimikizika. Paulo analembera Aroma kuti umunthu ugonjetsedwe ku umuyaya popanda chifuniro chake, koma kudzera mwa iye amene anaugonjetsa, koma ndi chiyembekezo (Aroma 8:20).

Mulungu adzatipulumutsa kwa ife tokha. Ndi nkhani yabwino bwanji! Paulo akuwonjezera kuti: ... pakuti chilengedwe nachonso chidzamasulidwa ku ukapolo wa muyaya ku ufulu wa ulemerero wa ana a Mulungu (vesi 21). Tsopano tiyeni tione mwatsatanetsatane lonjezo la Mulungu la chipulumutso.

Yesu amatiyanjanitsa ndi Mulungu

Ngakhale anthu asanalengedwe, dongosolo la Mulungu la chipulumutso linakhazikitsidwa. Kuyambira pachiyambi cha dziko lapansi, Yesu Khristu, Mwana wa Mulungu, anali Mwanawankhosa wosankhidwa wa nsembe (Chibvumbulutso 13:8). Petro akulengeza kuti Mkristu adzawomboledwa ndi mwazi wamtengo wapatali wa Kristu, umene unasankhidwa maziko a dziko asanaikidwe.1. (Ŵelengani Petulo 1:18-20.)

Lingaliro la Mulungu lopereka nsembe yamachimo ndi limene Paulo akulongosola monga cholinga chamuyaya chimene Mulungu anachita mwa Khristu Yesu Ambuye wathu ( Aefeso 3:11 ). Potero, Mulungu anafuna m’nthawi zirinkudza . . . kuti aonetse chuma chochuluka cha chisomo chake mwa kukoma mtima kwake kwa ife mwa Khristu Yesu ( Aefeso 2:7 ).

Yesu waku Nazarete, Mulungu wobadwa thupi, anadza nakhala pakati pathu (Yohane 1:14). Anatenga kukhala munthu ndikugawana zosowa ndi nkhawa zathu. Anayesedwa monga ife koma anakhalabe wopanda uchimo (Ahebri 4:15). Ngakhale kuti anali wangwiro ndiponso wopanda uchimo, anapereka moyo wake chifukwa cha machimo athu.

Tikuphunzira kuti Yesu anapachika ngongole yathu yauzimu pamtanda. Anachotsa machimo athu kuti tikhale ndi moyo. Yesu anafa kuti atipulumutse!
Cholinga cha Mulungu potumiza Yesu chikufotokozedwa momveka bwino m’mavesi ena a m’Baibulo odziwika kwambiri m’dziko lachikhristu. moyo uli nawo (Yohane 3:16).

Zimene Yesu anachita zimatipulumutsa

Mulungu anatumiza Yesu ku dziko lapansi kuti kudzera mwa iye dziko lapansi likapulumutsidwe (Yohane 3:17). Chipulumutso chathu ndi chotheka kudzera mwa Yesu. …mulibe chipulumutso mwa wina aliyense, kapena palibe dzina lina lirilonse la pansi pa thambo lopatsidwa kwa anthu, limene tingapulumutsidwe nalo (Machitidwe 4:12).

Mu dongosolo la chipulumutso cha Mulungu tiyenera kulungamitsidwa ndi kuyanjanitsidwa ndi Mulungu. Kulungamitsidwa kumapita kutali ndi kukhululukidwa chabe kwa machimo (komwe, komabe, zikuphatikizidwa). Mulungu amatipulumutsa ku uchimo, ndipo mwa mphamvu ya mzimu woyera amatithandiza kumukhulupirira, kumumvera, ndi kumukonda.
Nsembe ya Yesu ndi chionetsero cha chisomo cha Mulungu, chimene chimachotsa machimo a munthu ndi kuchotsa chilango cha imfa. Paulo akulemba kuti kulungamitsidwa (mwa chisomo cha Mulungu) chimene chimatsogolera ku moyo chinadza kudzera mu chilungamo cha munthu mmodzi kwa anthu onse (Aroma 5:18).

Popanda nsembe ya Yesu ndi chisomo cha Mulungu, timakhalabe akapolo a uchimo. Tonse ndife ochimwa, tonse timakumana ndi chilango cha imfa. Tchimo limatilekanitsa ife ndi Mulungu. Kumanga khoma pakati pa Mulungu ndi ife lomwe liyenera kugwetsedwa ndi chisomo Chake.

Momwe tchimo limatsutsidwira

Dongosolo la Mulungu la chipulumutso limafuna kuti uchimo utsutsidwe. Timawerenga kuti: Potumiza Mwana wake m'maonekedwe a thupi lauchimo ... [Mulungu] anatsutsa uchimo m'thupi (Aroma 8: 3). Chilango ichi chili ndi miyeso ingapo. Pachiyambi panali chilango chathu chosapeŵeka cha uchimo, chiweruzo cha imfa yamuyaya. Chilango cha imfa chimenechi chikanatha kutsutsidwa kapena kuthetsedwa kudzera mu nsembe yochotsera machimo. Izi n’zimene zinacititsa kuti Yesu afe.

Paulo analembera Aefeso kuti pamene anali akufa mu uchimo anapatsidwa moyo ndi Khristu (Aefeso 2:5). Izi zikutsatiridwa ndi mawu ofunikira omwe amafotokoza momveka bwino momwe timapezera chipulumutso: ... mudapulumutsidwa ndi chisomo ...; Ndi chisomo chokha chimene kupeza chipulumutso kumachitika.

Poyamba tinali, kudzera mu uchimo, tinali ngati akufa, ngakhale tinali ndi moyo m'thupi. Aliyense amene anayesedwa wolungama ndi Mulungu akadali ndi imfa yakuthupi, koma atha kukhala kale wamuyaya.

Paulo akutiuza mu Aefeso 2:8 : Pakuti munapulumutsidwa ndi chisomo mwa chikhulupiriro, ndipo ichi chosachokera kwa inu: ndi mphatso ya Mulungu ... Chilungamo chimatanthauza: kuyanjanitsidwa ndi Mulungu. Tchimo limapanga kusiyana pakati pa ife ndi Mulungu. Kulungamitsidwa kumachotsa kupatukana kumeneku ndi kutitsogolera ku ubale wapamtima ndi Mulungu. Ndiye timaomboledwa ku zotsatira zoipa za uchimo. Tapulumutsidwa ku dziko limene lili m’ndende. timagawana ... mu chikhalidwe cha umulungu ndipo tathawa ... zilakolako za dziko lapansi (2. (Werengani Petulo 1:4).

Ponena za anthu omwe ali paubwenzi ndi Mulungu, Paulo akuti: Popeza tsopano takhala olungama mwa chikhulupiriro, tili ndi mtendere ndi Mulungu, Ambuye wathu
Yesu Khristu… (Aroma 5:1).

Kotero mkhristu tsopano akukhala pansi pa chisomo, osatetezedwa ku uchimo, koma mosalekeza kutsogozedwa ku kulapa ndi Mzimu Woyera. Yohane analemba kuti: “Koma ngati tivomereza uchimo wathu, ali wokhulupirika ndi wolungama Iye, kuti atikhululukira machimo athu, natisambitsa kutichotsera chosalungama chilichonse.1. Yohane 1:9).

Monga Akristu, sitidzakhalanso ndi chizolowezi chochita uchimo. M’malo mwake, tidzabala chipatso cha Mzimu wa Mulungu m’miyoyo yathu (Agalatiya 5:22-23).

Paulo akulemba kuti: Pakuti ife ndife ntchito yake, olengedwa mwa Khristu Yesu kuchita ntchito zabwino ... ( Aefeso 2: 1 0). Sitingalungamitsidwe ndi ntchito zabwino. Munthu amakhala wolungama ... mwa chikhulupiriro mwa Khristu, osati mwa ntchito za lamulo (Agalatiya 2:16).

Timakhala olungama ... popanda ntchito za lamulo, mwa chikhulupiriro chokha (Aroma 3:28). Koma ngati tiyenda m’njira ya Mulungu, tidzayesetsanso kumusangalatsa. Sitipulumutsidwa ndi ntchito zathu, koma Mulungu adatipatsa chipulumutso kuti tichite ntchito zabwino.

Sitingapeze chisomo cha Mulungu. Amatipatsa. Chipulumutso sichinthu chomwe tingagwire ntchito kudzera mu kulapa kapena ntchito yachipembedzo. Chisomo cha Mulungu ndi chisomo nthawi zonse zimakhalabe zosayenera.

Paulo akulemba kuti kulungamitsidwa kumabwera mwa kukoma mtima ndi chikondi cha Mulungu (Tito 3:4). Sizibwera chifukwa cha ntchito zachilungamo zomwe tachita, koma chifukwa cha chifundo chake (v. 5).

Khalani mwana wa Mulungu

Pamene Mulungu watiyitana ife ndipo tatsatira maitanidwe ndi chikhulupiriro ndi chikhulupiriro, Mulungu amatipanga ife ana ake. Paulo akugwiritsa ntchito kulera apa monga chitsanzo pofotokoza mchitidwe wa chisomo cha Mulungu. ( Aroma 8:15 ). Munjira imeneyi timakhala ana a Mulungu ndi olowa nyumba, omwe ndi olowa nyumba a Mulungu ndi olowa anzake a Khristu (vesi 16-17).

Tisanalandire chisomo, tinali mu ukapolo wa mphamvu za dziko (Agalatiya 4:3). Yesu akutiombola kuti tikhale ndi ana (vesi 5). Paulo akuti: “Pakuti tsopano muli ana… simulinso kapolo, koma mwana; koma ngati ali mwana, cholowa chochokera kwa Mulungu (ndime 6-7). Limenelo ndi lonjezo lodabwitsa. Tikhoza kukhala ana otengedwa ndi Mulungu ndi kulandira moyo wosatha. Liwu lachigriki lotanthauza kukhala mwana mu Aroma 8:15 ndi Agalatiya 4:5 ndi huiothesia. Paulo akugwiritsa ntchito liwu limeneli mwa njira yapadera yomwe ikuwonetsera machitidwe a malamulo a Aroma. M’dziko lachiroma limene oŵerenga kalata yake anali kukhalamo, kulera ana kunali ndi tanthauzo lapadera limene silinali nalo nthaŵi zonse pakati pa anthu olamulidwa ndi Aroma.

M'dziko lachiroma ndi lachi Greek, kulera ana kunali kofala pakati pa anthu apamwamba. Mwana womulera anasankhidwa payekha ndi banja. Ufulu walamulo waperekedwa kwa mwanayo. Ankagwiritsidwa ntchito ngati cholowa.

Ngati munatengedwa ndi banja lachiroma, ubale watsopano wabanjali unali womangika. Kulera ana sikunangobweretsa maudindo okha komanso kunapatsa ufulu wabanja. Kutengera m'malo mwa ana chinali chomaliza, kusamutsira kubanja latsopanoli chinthu chomangirira kwambiri kotero kuti wololera amamuwona ngati mwana wobadwa. Popeza Mulungu ndi wamuyaya, akhristu achi Roma adamvetsetsa kuti Paulo amafuna kuwauza pano kuti: Malo anu mnyumba ya Mulungu ndi muyaya.

Mulungu amasankha kutitengera ife mwacholinga komanso payekha. Yesu akuonetsa ubale watsopanowu ndi Mulungu, umene timapeza kudzera mu izi, ndi chizindikiro china: Pokambirana ndi Nikodemo akunena kuti tiyenera kubadwanso mwatsopano (Yohane 3: 3).

Izi zimatipanga kukhala ana a Mulungu. Yohane anati kwa ife: Taonani chikondicho Atate anatisonyeza ife, kuti titchedwe ana a Mulungu, ndipo ifenso ndife ana ake! + Chifukwa chake dziko lapansi silitidziwa; chifukwa sadziwa iye. Okondedwa, ndife kale ana a Mulungu; koma sichinaululidwe chomwe tidzakhala. Koma tidziwa kuti pamene chawululidwa, tidzakhala ngati icho; chifukwa tidzamuwona momwe alili (1. Yohane 3:1-2).

Kuchokera pa imfa mpaka ku moyo wosafa

Kotero ife tiri kale ana a Mulungu, koma sitinalemekezedwebe. Thupi lathu lamakono liyenera kusinthidwa ngati tikufuna kukhala ndi moyo wosatha. Thupi lanyama, lowonongeka liyenera kusinthidwa ndi thupi lomwe liri lamuyaya ndi losawonongeka.

In 1. Akorinto 15 Paulo akulemba kuti: “Koma wina angafunse kuti, Kodi akufa adzauka bwanji, ndipo adzabwera ndi thupi lotani? (Ndime 35). Thupi lathu tsopano ndi lathupi, ndi fumbi ( vesi 42 mpaka 49 ). Thupi ndi mwazi sizingathe kulowa Ufumu wa Mulungu, umene uli wauzimu ndi wamuyaya (v. 50). Pakuti chovunda ichi chiyenera kuvala chisavundi, ndi cha imfa ichi kubvala chosafa (v. 53).

Kusandulika komalizaku sikudzachitika mpaka kuuka kwa akufa, pa kubweranso kwa Yesu. Paulo akufotokoza kuti: “Tikuyembekezera Mpulumutsi, Ambuye Yesu Khristu, amene adzasintha matupi athu opanda pake kuti akhale ngati thupi lake laulemerero (Afilipi 3:20-21). Mkhristu amene amakhulupirira ndi kumvera Mulungu ali kale ndi nzika zakumwamba. Koma anazindikira kokha pa kubweranso kwa Khristu
izi potsiriza; Pokhapo m'pamene Mkhristu adzalandira moyo wosafa komanso chidzalo cha ufumu wa Mulungu.

Tingakhale oyamikira chotani nanga kuti Mulungu watipanga ife oyenera cholowa cha oyera mtima m’kuunika (Akolose 1:12). Mulungu anatipulumutsa ku mphamvu ya mdima natiika mu ufumu wa Mwana wake wokondedwa (vesi 13).

Cholengedwa chatsopano

Iwo omwe alandiridwa mu ufumu wa Mulungu amasangalala ndi cholowa cha oyera mumdima malinga ngati apitilizabe kudalira ndikumvera Mulungu. Chifukwa tapulumutsidwa ndi chisomo cha Mulungu, kufikira kwa chipulumutso kumatsirizidwa ndikumalizidwa pamaso pake.

Paulo akufotokoza kuti ngati wina ali mwa Khristu ali wolengedwa watsopano; zakale zapita, taonani, zatsopano zafika (2. (Akorinto 5:17). Mulungu watisindikiza ife ndi m’mitima mwathu ngati
Mzimu wakupaturika (2. (Akorinto 1:22). Munthu wotembenuka, wodzipereka ali kale cholengedwa chatsopano.

Iye amene ali pansi pa chisomo ali kale mwana wa Mulungu. Mulungu amapereka mphamvu kwa iwo amene akhulupirira dzina lake kuti akhale ana a Mulungu (Yohane 1:12).

Paulo akulongosola mphatso za Mulungu ndi maitanidwe kukhala osasinthika (Aroma 11:29, unyinji). Chifukwa chake anathanso kunena kuti: ... Ndikhulupirira kuti iye amene adayamba ntchito yabwino mwa inu adzayitsiriza kufikira tsiku la Khristu Yesu (Afilipi 1: 6).

Ngakhale munthu amene Mulungu wamupatsa chisomo amapunthwa nthawi zina: Mulungu amakhalabe wokhulupirika kwa iye. Nkhani ya mwana wolowerera ( Luka 15 ) ikusonyeza kuti osankhidwa ndi oitanidwa a Mulungu amakhalabe ana ake ngakhale atalakwa. Mulungu amafuna kuti amene apunthwa achoke ndi kubwerera kwa iye. Iye safuna kuweruza anthu, koma amafuna kuwapulumutsa.

Mwana wolowerera wa m’Baibulo anali atadzipitadi. Adati: "Bambo anga ali ndi antchito masana angati amene ali ndi chakudya chochuluka, ndipo ine ndikufa ndi njala kuno? ( Luka 15:17 ). Mfundo yake ndi yomveka. Pamene mwana woloŵerera anazindikira kupusa kwa zimene anali kuchita, analapa ndi kubwerera kwawo. Atate ake anamukhululukira. Monga Yesu akunena: Pamene iye anali kutali, atate wake anamuwona iye, nalira; anathamanga, nagwa pakhosi pake, nampsompsona (Luka 15:20). Nkhaniyi ikusonyeza kukhulupirika kwa Mulungu kwa ana ake.

Mwanayo anasonyeza kudzichepetsa ndi chikhulupiriro, ndipo analapa. Iye anati, Atate, ndinachimwira kumwamba ndi inu; sindiyeneranso kutchedwa mwana wanu (Luka 15:21).

Koma atatewo sanafune kumva za nkhaniyi ndipo anakonza zoti achite phwando la wobwerera. Anati mwana wanga wafa, ndipo wakhalanso ndi moyo; anali wotayika ndipo wapezeka (v. 32).

Ngati Mulungu atipulumutsa, tidzakhala ana ake kwamuyaya. Apitiliza kugwira ntchito nafe mpaka tidzakhale ogwirizana naye pakuuka.

Mphatso ya moyo wosatha

Mwa chisomo chake, Mulungu amatipatsa malonjezo okondedwa kwambiri (2. (Werengani Petulo 1:4). Kudzera mwa iwo timapeza gawo ... la chikhalidwe chaumulungu. Chinsinsi cha chisomo cha Mulungu chili mkati
chiyembekezo chamoyo mwa kuuka kwa Yesu Kristu kwa akufa (1. (Werengani Petulo 1:3). Chiyembekezo chimenecho ndi cholowa chosafa chimene chasungidwa kwa ife kumwamba (v. 4). Pakali pano tikali opulumutsidwa ku mphamvu ya Mulungu mwa chikhulupiriro ... ku chipulumutso chokonzeka kuwululidwa pa nthawi yotsiriza (v. 5).

Dongosolo la Mulungu la chipulumutso potsiriza lidzakwaniritsidwa ndi kubweranso kwachiwiri kwa Yesu ndi kuuka kwa akufa. Kenako kusandulika kumene kwatchulidwa pamwambapa kuchoka ku imfa kupita ku chosakhoza kufa kukuchitika. Mtumwi Yohane anati: “Koma tidziwa kuti pamene adzaululidwa, tidzakhala ngati iye; chifukwa tidzamuwona momwe alili (1. Yohane 3:2).

Kuukitsidwa kwa Khristu kumatsimikizira kuti Mulungu adzawombola lonjezo lathu la kuuka kwa akufa. Onani, ndikukuuzani chinsinsi, akulemba motero Paulo. Sitidzagona tonse, koma tonse tidzasandulika; ndipo modzidzimutsa, m’kamphindi ... akufa adzauka osabvunda, ndipo ife tidzasandulika.1. (Ŵelengani 15:51-52.) Izi zimachitika pa kulira kwa lipenga lomaliza, Yesu asanabwerenso ( Chivumbulutso 11:15 ).

Yesu akulonjeza kuti aliyense wokhulupirira iye adzakhala ndi moyo wosatha; Ine ndidzamuukitsa iye tsiku lomaliza, alonjeza (Yohane 6:40).

Mtumwi Paulo akufotokoza kuti: “Pakuti ngati tikhulupirira kuti Yesu anafa, nauka, Mulungu adzatenganso iwo akugona naye pamodzi mwa Yesu;1. Atesalonika 4:14). Chimene chikutanthauzidwanso ndi nthawi ya kubweranso kwachiwiri kwa Khristu. Paulo akupitiriza kuti: “Pakuti Iye mwini, Ambuye, pamene lamulo lidzamveka, adzatsika kuchokera Kumwamba…ndipo poyamba akufa amene anafa mwa Khristu adzauka (v. 16). Pamenepo iwo amene akali ndi moyo pa kubweranso kwa Kristu adzakwatulidwa pa nthawi yomweyo pamodzi nao pa mitambo ya mlengalenga kukakomana ndi Ambuye; ndipo chotero tidzakhala ndi Ambuye nthawi zonse (vesi 17).

Paulo akulimbikitsa Akhristu kuti: “Choncho tonthozanani wina ndi mnzake ndi mawu awa (vesi 18). Ndipo ndi chifukwa chabwino. Kuuka kwa akufa ndi nthawi imene iwo amene ali pansi pa chisomo adzapeza moyo wosafa.

Mphothoyo imadza ndi Yesu

Mau a Paulo alembedwa kale: “Pakuti chisomo cha Mulungu chinaonekera kwa anthu onse (Tito 2:11). Chipulumutso ichi ndi chiyembekezo chodala chowomboledwa pakuwonekera kwa ulemerero wa Mulungu wamkulu ndi Mpulumutsi wathu Yesu Khristu (vesi 13).

Kuukitsidwa kudakali m’tsogolo. Timayembekezera, mwachiyembekezo monga momwe Paulo anachitira. Kumapeto kwa moyo wake iye anati: ... nthawi ya kupita kwanga yafika.2. (Werengani Timoteyo 4:6). Iye ankadziwa kuti wakhala wokhulupirika kwa Mulungu. Ndalimbana nako kulimbana kwabwino, ndinatsiriza kuthamanga, ndinasunga chikhulupiriro ... (vesi 7). Anali kuyembekezera mphotho yake: ... kuyambira tsopano korona wa chilungamo wandikonzera ine, amene Ambuye, woweruza wolungama, adzandipatsa ine tsiku lomwelo, osati kwa ine ndekha, komanso kwa onse amene amamukonda. mawonekedwe (Ndime 8).

Pa nthawi imeneyo, Paulo akuti, Yesu adzasintha matupi athu opanda pake ... kuti akhale ngati thupi lake laulemerero (Afilipi 3:21). Kusandulika kobwera ndi Mulungu, amene anaukitsa Khristu kwa akufa ndipo adzapatsanso moyo matupi anu akufa mwa Mzimu wake wakukhala mwa inu (Aroma 8:11).

Tanthauzo la moyo wathu

Ngati tili ana a Mulungu, tidzakhala moyo wathu wonse pamodzi ndi Yesu Khristu. Khalidwe lathu liyenera kukhala ngati la Paulo, amene ananena kuti adzaona moyo wake wakale ngati wonyansa kuti ndipindule Khristu…Iye ndi mphamvu yakuuka kwake ndikufuna kudziwa.

Paulo ankadziwa kuti anali asanakwanitse cholinga chimenechi. Ndiiwala za m’mbuyo, ndi kufikira za m’tsogolo, ndikusakasaka colinga coikidwa, mphotho ya maitanidwe akumwamba a Mulungu mwa Kristu Yesu ( vesi 13-14 ).

Mphotho imeneyo ndi moyo wosatha. Iye amene avomereza Mulungu monga Atate wake, ndi kumkonda, nakhulupirira Iye, napita panjira yake, adzakhala ndi moyo wosatha mu ulemerero wa Mulungu;1. (Ŵelengani Petulo 5:1.) Pa Chibvumbulutso 0:21-6 , Mulungu akutiuza chimene tsogolo lathu liri: Ndidzapereka kwaulere ku kasupe wa madzi amoyo kwa akumva ludzu. Iye amene alakika adzalandira zonse, ndipo ndidzakhala Mulungu wake, ndipo iye adzakhala mwana wanga.
