Tidabadwa kuti tidzafe
Chikhulupiriro Chachikristu chimalengeza uthenga wakuti m’nthaŵi yoikika Mwana wa Mulungu anakhala thupi m’malo oikidwiratu ndi kukhala pakati pa ife anthu. Yesu anali munthu wochititsa chidwi kwambiri moti ena anafika pokayikira zoti anali munthu. Komabe, Baibulo mobwerezabwereza limagogomezera kuti Mulungu m’thupi—wobadwa mwa mkazi—analidi munthu, ndiko kuti, mopanda uchimo, anali ngati ife m’zonse.” ( Yoh. 1,14; Agalatiya 4,4; Afilipi 2,7; Ahebri 2,17). Iye analidi munthu. Kubadwa kwa Yesu Khristu nthawi zambiri kumachitika pa Khrisimasi, ngakhale kuti kudayamba ndi pakati pa Mariya, malinga ndi kalendala yapa 2 December.5. Marichi, phwando la Kulengeza (lomwe kale linkatchedwanso phwando la Kubadwa kwa Munthu kapena Kubadwa kwa Mulungu).
Khristu anapachikidwa
Ngakhale kuti kutenga pakati ndi kubadwa kwa Yesu kukhale kofunikira pa chikhulupiriro chathu, sizili pa malo oyamba mu uthenga wa chikhulupiriro umene timaupititsa ku dziko lapansi. Pamene Paulo analalikira ku Korinto, iye anapereka uthenga wodzutsa maganizo kwambiri: wa Khristu wopachikidwa.1. Akorinto 1,23).
Dziko lachi Greek ndi Roma limadziwa nkhani zambiri za milungu yomwe idabadwa, koma palibe amene adamva za wopachikidwa. Zinali zoyipa - monga kulonjeza chipulumutso kwa anthu ngati angokhulupirira wamisala wophedwa. Koma zingatheke bwanji kuwomboledwa ndi wachifwamba?
Koma imeneyo inali mfundo yofunika kwambiri—Mwana wa Mulungu anavutika ndi imfa yochititsa manyazi pamtanda ndipo analandiranso ulemerero mwa chiukiriro. Petulo anauza Khoti Lalikulu la Ayuda kuti: “Mulungu wa makolo athu anaukitsa Yesu kwa akufa . . . 5,30-31). Yesu anaukitsidwa kwa akufa ndi kukwezedwa kuti machimo athu awomboledwe.
Komabe, Petro sanalephere kutchulanso mbali yochititsa manyazi ya nkhaniyo: “…amene munampachika pamtengo ndi kumupha.” Mawu akuti “nkhuni” mosakayikira anakumbutsa atsogoleri achipembedzo Achiyuda mawu a pa Deuteronomo 5.1,23 amakumbukira: "... munthu wopachikidwa wotembereredwa ndi Mulungu."
Zedi! N’cifukwa ciani Petulo anafunika kukamba izi? Sanayese kuzembera nkhokwe ya chikhalidwe ndi ndale, koma mwachidziwitso anaphatikizapo mbali iyi. Uthenga wake sunali woti Yesu anafa, komanso m’njira yonyozekayi. Osati kokha gawo ili la uthenga, linali uthenga wake wapakati. Pamene Paulo ankalalikira ku Korinto, ankafuna kumvetsa cholinga chachikulu cha ulaliki wake osati imfa ya Khristu yokha, komanso imfa yake ya pamtanda.1. Akorinto 1,23).
Ku Galatiya mwachiwonekere anagwiritsa ntchito njira yowonekera kwambiri ya mawu: “... pamaso pawo Yesu Kristu anapachikidwa pa mtanda.” 3,1). Kodi nchifukwa ninji Paulo anafunikira chigogomezero chokulirapo kuti agogomeze imfa yowopsya imeneyo imene Malemba anawona kukhala chizindikiro chotsimikizirika cha temberero la Mulungu?
Kodi zinali zofunika kutero?
N’cifukwa ciani Yesu anafa imfa yoopsa ngati imeneyi? N’kutheka kuti Paulo anakambirana ndi funso limeneli kwa nthawi yaitali. Iye anali ataona Khristu woukitsidwayo ndipo anadziwa kuti Mulungu anatumiza Mesiya mwa munthu ameneyu. Koma kodi n’chifukwa chiyani Mulungu analola wodzozedwayo kuti afe mpaka imfa imene Malemba amati ndi temberero? (Choncho ngakhale Asilamu sakhulupirira kuti Yesu anapachikidwa. M’maso mwawo iye anali mneneri, ndipo Mulungu sakanalola n’komwe kuti zimenezi zimuchitikire m’malo mwake. Iwo amatsutsa kuti wina anapachikidwa m’malo mwa Yesu wakhala.)
Ndipo ndithudi Yesu anapemphera m’munda wa Getsemane kuti pakhale njira ina kwa iye, koma panalibe. Herode ndi Pilato anangochita zimene Mulungu “analamula kuti zichitike”—kuti aphedwe m’njira yotembereredwa imeneyi (Mac. 4,28; Baibulo la Zurich).
Chifukwa chiyani? Chifukwa chakuti Yesu anatifera—chifukwa cha machimo athu—ndipo ndife otembereredwa chifukwa cha kuchimwa kwathu. Ngakhale zolakwa zathu zing’onozing’ono zili ngati kupachikidwa pamtanda m’kudzudzula kwawo pamaso pa Mulungu. Anthu onse ndi otembereredwa chifukwa chokhala ochimwa. Koma uthenga wabwino, uthenga wabwino, umalonjeza kuti: “Koma Khristu anatiwombola ku temberero la chilamulo, popeza anakhala temberero m’malo mwathu.” 3,13). Yesu anapachikidwa chifukwa cha aliyense wa ife. Iye anatenga zowawa ndi manyazi zimene tinkayeneradi kupirira.
Zofananira zina
Komabe, uku sikuli fanizo lokhalo lomwe Baibulo limatipatsa, ndipo Paulo amangolankhula za lingaliro ili mu imodzi mwamakalata ake. Nthawi zambiri amangonena kuti Yesu “anatifera ife”. Poyamba, mawu osankhidwa pano akuwoneka ngati kusinthana kosavuta: tinayenera imfa, Yesu anadzipereka kutifera ife, kotero ife tapulumutsidwa.
Komabe, si zophweka choncho. Chifukwa chimodzi n’chakuti anthufe timafabe. Ndipo m’lingaliro lina, timafa ndi Khristu (Aroma 6,3-5). Mwa fanizo ili, imfa ya Yesu inali yopambana kwa ife (anafa m’malo mwathu) ndi yogawana nawo (ndiko kuti, timadya nawo imfa yake mwa kufa naye); Chimene chimamveketsa bwino lomwe chofunika kwambiri: Tinaomboledwa kupyolera mu kupachikidwa kwa Yesu, kotero kuti tingapulumutsidwe kokha kupyolera mu mtanda wa Khristu.
Fanizo lina losankhidwa ndi Yesu iyemwini limagwiritsira ntchito dipo monga fanizo: “…Mwana wa munthu sanadza kudzatumikiridwa, koma kutumikira, ndi kupereka moyo wake dipo la anthu ambiri.” ( Marko 10,45). Monga ngati kuti tinagwidwa ukapolo ndi mdani ndipo imfa ya Yesu inatitsimikizira ufulu wathu.
Paulo akufanizira chimodzimodzi pamene akunena za ife kuti tawomboledwa. Mawuwa akhoza kukumbukira owerenga ena pamsika wogulitsa akapolo, ena angawakumbutsenso za kutuluka kwa Aisraeli kuchokera ku Aigupto. Akapolo amatha kuwomboledwa ku ukapolo, chotero Mulungu nawonso adagula Aisraeli ku Egypt. Potumiza Mwana wake, Atate athu Akumwamba adatigula kwambiri. Iye anatenga chilango cha machimo athu.
Mu Akolose 2,15 chithunzi china chimagwiritsidwa ntchito poyerekezera: “... analanda zida za maulamuliro ndi maulamuliro, nawaika poyera. Mwa iye [pamtanda] anawalaka” ( Elberfeld Bible ). Chithunzi chojambulidwa apa chikuimira gulu lachipambano: Mtsogoleri wankhondo wopambana akubweretsa akaidi opanda zida, onyozeka omangidwa ndi maunyolo mu mzinda. Ndime iyi ya mu Akolose imamveketsa bwino lomwe kuti Yesu Kristu, kupyolera mwa kupachikidwa kwake, anathyola mphamvu za adani ake onse ndipo anapambana chifukwa cha ife.
Baibulo limatipatsa uthenga wachipulumutso kwa ife m'mafanizo osati mwa mawonekedwe okhazikika, osasunthika achikhulupiriro. Mwachitsanzo, imfa yansembe ya Yesu m'malo mwathu ndi chimodzi chabe mwa zithunzi zomwe Malemba Opatulika amagwiritsa ntchito kumveketsa mfundo yofunika kwambiri. Monga momwe tchimo limafotokozedwera m'njira zosiyanasiyana, ntchito ya Yesu yowombola machimo athu imatha kufananizidwa m'njira zosiyanasiyana. Ngati tiwona tchimo ngati kuphwanya lamulo, titha kuzindikira pamtanda kupangira chilango chathu m'malo mwake. Ngati tikuziwona ngati kuphwanya chiyero cha Mulungu, timawona mwa Yesu chitetezero chomwe chimadza chifukwa cha icho. Ikatidetsa magazi, magazi a Yesu amatitsuka. Ngati tidziwona tikugonjetsedwa ndi iye, Yesu ndiye Wotiwombola, Momboli wathu wopambana. Kulikonse kumene afesa udani, Yesu amabweretsa chiyanjanitso. Ngati tiwona chizindikiro chakusazindikira kapena kupusa mmenemo, ndi Yesu amene amatipatsa chidziwitso ndi nzeru. Zithunzi zonsezi ndi zothandiza kwa ife.
Kodi mkwiyo wa Mulungu ungafewe?
Kupanda umulungu kudzaputa mkwiyo wa Mulungu, ndipo lidzakhala “tsiku la mkwiyo” limene adzaweruza dziko lapansi ( Aroma. 1,18; 2,5). Amene “osamvera choonadi” adzalangidwa ( vesi 8 ). Mulungu amakonda anthu ndipo angakonde kuwaona akusintha, koma amawalanga akamamukaniza. Aliyense amene adzitsekereza yekha ku choonadi cha chikondi cha Mulungu ndi chisomo adzalandira chilango chake.
Mosiyana ndi munthu waukali amene afunika kutonthozedwa asanayambe kudzikhazika mtima pansi, iye amatikonda ndipo amaonetsetsa kuti machimo athu akhululukidwa. Chotero iwo sanafafanizidwe kokha, koma anaperekedwa kwa Yesu ndi zotsatira zenizeni. “Anamupanga Iye kukhala uchimo m’malo mwathu amene sanadziwa uchimo” (2. Akorinto 5,21; Baibulo la Zurich). Yesu anakhala temberero chifukwa cha ife, iye anakhala tchimo chifukwa cha ife. Pamene machimo athu anaperekedwa kwa iye, chilungamo chake chinaperekedwa kwa ife “kuti mwa Iye tikhale chilungamo cha Mulungu” (ndime yomweyi). Chilungamo chapatsidwa kwa ife ndi Mulungu.
Vumbulutso la chilungamo cha Mulungu
Uthenga Wabwino umavumbulutsa chilungamo cha Mulungu – kuti amakhazikitsa chilungamo kuti chilamulire kuti atikhululukire m’malo motitsutsa (Aroma 1,17). Iye sanyalanyaza machimo athu, koma amawasamalira ndi kupachikidwa kwa Yesu Khristu. Mtanda ndi chizindikiro cha chilungamo cha Mulungu (Aroma 3,25-26) komanso chikondi chake (5,8). Imaimira chilungamo chifukwa chakuti imasonyeza mokwanira chilango cha uchimo mwa imfa, koma panthaŵi imodzimodziyo ya chikondi chifukwa chakuti wokhululuka amavomereza mofunitsitsa ululuwo.
Yesu analipira mtengo wa machimo athu – mtengo wake mu mawonekedwe a zowawa ndi manyazi. Anapeza chiyanjanitso (kubwezeretsedwa kwa chiyanjano chaumwini) kupyolera mu mtanda (Akolose 1,20). Ngakhale pamene tinali adani, iye anatifera (Aroma 5,8).
Pali zambiri kuposa chilungamo kutsatira lamulo. Msamariya wachifundoyu sanamvere malamulo aliwonse omwe amafuna kuti athandize munthu wovulalayo, koma adachita bwino pomuthandiza.
Ngati tingathe kupulumutsa munthu womira, tisazengereze kutero. Ndipo kotero zinali mu mphamvu ya Mulungu kupulumutsa dziko lauchimo, ndipo iye anachita izo mwa kutumiza Yesu Kristu. Iye ndiye chiwombolo cha machimo athu, osati athu okha, komanso a dziko lonse lapansi.1. Johannes 2,2). Iye anatifera tonsefe, ndipo anachita zimenezi “tidakali ochimwa”.
Mwa chikhulupiriro
Chisomo cha Mulungu pa ife ndi chizindikiro cha chilungamo chake. Iye amachita chilungamo potipatsa chilungamo ngakhale kuti ndife ochimwa. Chifukwa chiyani? Chifukwa adapanga Khristu kukhala chilungamo chathu (1. Akorinto 1,30). Popeza ndife ogwirizana ndi Khristu, machimo athu amapita kwa iye ndipo timapeza chilungamo chake. Chifukwa chake tilibe chilungamo chathu chochokera mwa ife tokha, koma chimachokera kwa Mulungu ndipo chimaperekedwa kwa ife kudzera mu chikhulupiriro chathu (Afilipi 3,9).
“Koma ndilankhula za chilungamo pamaso pa Mulungu, chimene chimadza mwa chikhulupiriro cha mwa Yesu Khristu kwa onse akukhulupirira. Pakuti palibe kusiyana pano: onse ali ochimwa, ndipo alibe ulemerero umene anayenera kukhala nawo ndi Mulungu, ndipo alungamitsidwa popanda chifukwa ndi chisomo chake mwa chiombolo cha mwa Khristu Yesu. Mulungu adamuika kukhala chikhulupiriro, monga chotetezera m’mwazi wake, kuti atsimikizire chilungamo chake mwa kukhululukira machimo amene adachitidwa kale m’masiku a chipiriro chake; amene ali mwa chikhulupiriro mwa Yesu.” ( Aroma 3,22-26 ndi).
Chiwombolo cha Yesu chinali cha onse, koma okhawo amene amamukhulupirira ndi amene adzalandira madalitso amene amabwera nawo. Ndi okhawo amene avomereza choonadi angakhoze kupeza chisomo. Ndi ichi tizindikira imfa yake monga yathu (monga imfa inavutika ndi iye m’malo mwa ife, imene ife titengamo mbali); ndipo monga chilango chake, momwemonso tikuzindikira kupambana kwake ndi kuuka kwake kukhala kwathu. Choncho Mulungu ali woona kwa Iye mwini - Ngwachifundo ndi wolungama. Tchimo limanyalanyazidwa pang'ono monga ochimwa eni ake.Chifundo cha Mulungu chimapambana chiweruzo (Yakobo 2,13).
Kupyolera mu mtanda Khristu anayanjanitsa dziko lonse lapansi (2. Akorinto 5,19). Inde, kupyolera mu mtanda dziko lonse lapansi likuyanjanitsidwa ndi Mulungu (Akolose 1,20). Chilengedwe chonse chili ndi chipulumutso chifukwa cha zimene Yesu anachita! Zimenezo zimadutsadi chirichonse chimene timagwirizanitsa ndi mawu akuti chipulumutso, sichoncho?
Tidabadwa kuti tidzafe
Mfundo yaikulu ndi yakuti tinaomboledwa kudzera mu imfa ya Yesu Khristu. Inde, chifukwa chake iye anakhala thupi. Kuti atitsogolere ku ulemerero, Mulungu anakondweretsa Yesu kuti azunzike ndi kufa (Aheb 2,10). Popeza anafuna kutiombola, anakhala ngati ife; pakuti kokha mwa kutifera ife akadatha kutipulumutsa.
“Popeza kuti ana ali athupi ndi mwazi, iyenso analandira icho momwemo, kuti mwa imfa akachotse mphamvu ya iye amene anali nayo mphamvu pa imfa, ndiye mdierekezi, ndi kuwombola iwo akuopa imfa konsekonse kumene moyo unayenera. kukhala antchito" (2,14-15). Mwa chisomo cha Mulungu, Yesu anazunzika imfa chifukwa cha aliyense wa ife (2,9). "...Kristu adamva zowawa kamodzi chifukwa cha machimo, wolungama chifukwa cha osalungama, kuti akafikitse inu kwa Mulungu..." (1. Peter 3,18).
Baibulo limatipatsa mwayi wambiri wosinkhasinkha zomwe Yesu adatichitira pamtanda. Sitikumvetsetsa mwatsatanetsatane momwe chilichonse "chimakhudzirana wina ndi mnzake", koma timavomereza kuti ndi choncho. Chifukwa iye adamwalira, titha kugawana moyo wosatha ndi Mulungu mwachimwemwe.
Pomaliza, ndikufuna nditenge gawo lina la mtanda - lachitsanzo:
“Umo chikondi cha Mulungu chinaonekera mwa ife, kuti Mulungu anatumiza Mwana wake wobadwa yekha kudziko lapansi, kuti mwa Iye tikhale ndi moyo. Ichi ndi chikondi: sikuti ife tinakonda Mulungu, koma kuti Iye anatikonda ife, ndipo anatuma Mwana wake akhale chiombolo chifukwa cha machimo athu. Okondedwa, ngati Mulungu anatikonda ife kotero, ifenso tikondane wina ndi mnzake.”1. Johannes 4,9-11 ndi).
