Khristu

Aliyense amene amaika chikhulupiriro chake mwa Khristu ndi Mkhristu. Ndi kukonzedwanso ndi Mzimu Woyera, Mkhristu amabadwanso mwatsopano ndipo amabweretsedwa mu ubale wabwino ndi Mulungu ndi anthu anzake kudzera mu chisomo cha Mulungu kudzera mu kutengedwa kukhala ana ake. Moyo wa Mkhristu umadziwika ndi chipatso cha Mzimu Woyera. (Aroma 10,9-13; Agalatiya 2,20; Yohane 3,5-7; Mark 8,34; Yohane 1,12-13; 3,16-17; Aroma 5,1; 8,9; Yohane 13,35; Agalatiya 5,22-23)

Zikutanthauza chiyani kukhala mwana wa Mulungu?

Ophunzira a Yesu nthawi zina ankadziona ngati ofunika. Nthawi ina anafunsa Yesu kuti: “Kodi wamkulu ndani mu ufumu wakumwamba?” ( Mateyu 18,1). M’mawu ena, ndi mikhalidwe yaumwini yotani imene Mulungu amafuna kuona mwa anthu ake, ndi zitsanzo zotani zimene amapeza bwino koposa?

Funso labwino. Yesu anawatenga n’kunena mfundo yofunika kwambiri yakuti: “Ngati simulapa ndi kukhala ngati ana aang’ono, simudzalowa mu ufumu wakumwamba.” ( vesi 3 ).

Ophunzirawo ayenera kuti anadabwa ngati sanasokonezeke. Mwina anali kuganiza za munthu wina wonga Eliya, amene anaitanitsa moto kuchokera kumwamba kuti unyeketse adani ena, kapena munthu wachangu ngati Pinehasi, amene anapha anthu amene anaphwanya malamulo a Mose.4. Mose 25,7-8 ndi). Kodi iwo sanali m’gulu la akulu kwambiri m’mbiri ya anthu a Mulungu?

Koma lingaliro lawo la kukula linali kutengera mfundo zabodza. Yesu akuwawonetsa kuti Mulungu safuna kudzionetsera kapena machitidwe olimba mtima mwa anthu ake, koma mikhalidwe yomwe imapezeka mwa ana. Chomwe chiri chotsimikizika ndikuti pokhapokha munthu atakhala ngati ana ang'onoang'ono, salowa muufumu konse!

Kodi tiyenera kukhala ngati ana m’njira zotani? Kodi tiyenera kukhala osakhwima, ana, mbuli? Ayi, tikadasiya njira zachibwana kumbuyo kwathu kalekale (1. Korinto 13,11). Tinayenera kusiya makhalidwe ena onga ana, n’kusunga ena.

Khalidwe limodzi limene timafunika ndi kudzichepetsa, monga mmene Yesu ananenera pa Mateyu 18:4 kuti: “Aliyense amene adzichepetsa yekha ngati kamwana aka, ameneyo ndi wamkulu mu ufumu wakumwamba.” Munthu wodzichepetsa m’maganizo a Mulungu ndi wamkulu kuposa onse. zabwino kwambiri pamaso pa Mulungu zomwe angafune kuziwona mwa anthu ake.

Pazifukwa zabwino; chifukwa kudzichepetsa ndi mkhalidwe wa Mulungu. Mulungu ndi wokonzeka kusiya mwayi wake kuti tipulumuke. Zomwe Yesu adachita atasandulika thupi sizinali zolakwika za chikhalidwe cha Mulungu, koma vumbulutso la kukhalapo, weniweni wa Mulungu. Mulungu akufuna kuti tikhale monga Khristu, kufunitsitsanso kusiya mwayi wothandiza ena.

Ana ena ndi odzichepetsa pomwe ena samadzichepetsa. Yesu adagwiritsa ntchito mwana wina kuti amveketse mfundo imodzi: tiyenera kukhala ngati ana m'njira zina - makamaka ubale wathu ndi Mulungu.

Yesu anafotokozanso kuti monga mwana, munthu ayenera kuchitira ana ena mokoma mtima (v. 5), kutanthauza kuti ankaganiziranso ana enieni m’njira yophiphiritsa. Monga akulu, tiyenera kuchitira achinyamata ulemu ndi ulemu. Mofananamo, tiyenera kulandira mwaulemu ndi mwaulemu okhulupirira atsopano amene adakali achikulire mu unansi wawo ndi Mulungu ndi m’kumvetsetsa kwawo chiphunzitso chachikristu. Kudzichepetsa kwathu kumakhudza osati ubale wathu ndi Mulungu wokha, komanso ubale wathu ndi anthu ena.

Abba, abambo

Yesu ankadziwa kuti anali pa ubwenzi wapadera ndi Mulungu. Iye yekha ndiye ankawadziwa bwino Atate mpaka kumuululira kwa ena (Mateyu 11,27). Yesu analankhula ndi Mulungu ndi liwu lachiaramu lakuti Abba, liwu lachikondi limene ana ndi akulu amagwiritsira ntchito ponena za atate awo. Zikufanana ndi mawu athu amakono akuti "abambo". Yesu analankhula ndi atate wake m’pemphero, kuwapempha thandizo ndi kuwathokoza chifukwa cha mphatso zawo. Yesu akutiphunzitsa kuti sitiyenera kukokomeza kuti tilankhule ndi mfumu. Iwo ndi abambo athu. Tikhoza kulankhula naye chifukwa ndi bambo athu. Iye anatipatsa mwayi umenewu. Chotero tingakhale ndi chidaliro chakuti Iye amatimva.

Ngakhale kuti sitiri ana a Mulungu monga mmene Yesu alili Mwana, Yesu anaphunzitsa ophunzira ake kupemphera kwa Mulungu monga Atate. Zaka zambiri pambuyo pake, Paulo anatenga malo kuti ngakhale mpingo wa ku Roma, womwe unali pamtunda wa makilomita oposa chikwi kuchokera kumadera olankhula Chiaramu, ukhoza kuitana pa Mulungu ndi liwu lachiaramu lakuti Abba (Aroma 8,15).

Sikoyenera kugwiritsa ntchito mawu oti Abba m'mapemphero masiku ano. Koma kugwiritsidwa ntchito kwa mawuwa mu Mpingo woyambirira kumawonetsa kuti zidawakhudza kwambiri ophunzira. Anapatsidwa ubale wapamtima kwambiri ndi Mulungu, ubale womwe udawatsimikizira kufikira kwa Mulungu kudzera mwa Yesu Khristu.

Mawu oti Abba anali apadera. Ayuda ena sanapemphere motero. Koma ophunzira a Yesu anatero. Amamudziwa Mulungu ngati bambo wawo. Iwo anali ana a mfumu, osati chabe mamembala a mtundu wosankhidwa.

Kubadwanso ndi kukhazikitsidwa

Kugwiritsiridwa ntchito kwa mafanizo osiyanasiyana kunathandiza atumwi kusonyeza ubale watsopano umene okhulupirira anali nawo ndi Mulungu. Mawu akuti chipulumutso amapereka lingaliro lakuti timakhala chuma cha Mulungu. Tinaomboledwa ku msika wa akapolo wa uchimo pa mtengo wokulirapo—imfa ya Yesu Kristu. “Mphotho”yo sinalipire munthu wina aliyense, koma ikupereka lingaliro lakuti chipulumutso chathu chinadza pa mtengo wake.

Mawu oti chiyanjanitso adatsimikiza kuti kale tidali adani a Mulungu ndipo ubale tsopano wabwezeretsedwa kudzera mwa Yesu Khristu. Imfa yake idaloleza kufafanizidwa kwa machimo omwe adatilekanitsa ife ndi Mulungu kuchokera pagulu lathu la machimo. Mulungu anatichitira izi chifukwa sitinathe kudzichitira tokha.

Kenako Baibulo limatipatsa zofanana zingapo. Koma kugwiritsa ntchito mafanizo osiyanasiyana kumatipangitsa kuganiza kuti palibe aliyense wa iwo yekha amene angatipatse chithunzi chonse. Izi ndizowona makamaka pazofanizira ziwiri zomwe zikanatsutsana wina ndi mzake: yoyamba ikuwonetsa kuti tidabadwa kuchokera kumwamba ngati ana a Mulungu, ndipo inayo ikuwonetsa kuti tidatengedwa.

Mafanizo awiriwa akutisonyeza china chake chofunikira pa chipulumutso chathu. Kubadwanso katsopano kumanena kuti pali kusintha kwakukuru mu umunthu wathu, kusintha komwe kumayamba pang onono ndikukula m'moyo wathu. Ndife cholengedwa chatsopano, anthu atsopano okhala m'nyengo yatsopano.

Kubereka ana akuti tinali alendo akunja a ufumuwo, koma tsopano takhala ana a Mulungu ndi chisankho cha Mulungu komanso mothandizidwa ndi Mzimu Woyera ndipo tili ndi ufulu wonse wa kulandira cholowa ndi kudziwika. Ife, omwe kale anali akutali, tayandikitsidwa kudzera mu ntchito yopulumutsa ya Yesu Khristu. Timafera mwa iye, koma sitiyenera kufa chifukwa cha iye. Mwa iye tikhala, koma siife omwe tikukhala, koma ndife anthu atsopano omwe adalengedwa ndi Mzimu wa Mulungu.

Fanizo lirilonse liri ndi tanthauzo lake, komanso mfundo zake zofooka. Palibe chilichonse padziko lapansi chomwe chingapereke zonse zomwe Mulungu amachita m'miyoyo yathu. Ndi zofanana zomwe adatipatsa, chithunzi cha m'Baibulo chokhala ana a Mulungu chimavomerezana bwino.

Momwe ana amakhalira

Mulungu ndiye Mlengi, Wopereka ndi Mfumu. Koma chofunikira kwambiri kwa ife ndikuti ndi bambo. Ndi ubale wapamtima womwe umafotokozedwa mu ubale wofunikira kwambiri pachikhalidwe cha m'zaka za zana loyamba.

Anthu amtundu wanthawi imeneyo adadziwika kudzera mwa abambo awo. Mwachitsanzo, dzina lanu mukadakhala Yosefe, mwana wa Eli. Abambo anu akanatsimikiza malo anu pagulu. Abambo anu akadazindikira kuchuluka kwanu pachuma, ntchito yanu komanso mnzanu wamtsogolo. Chilichonse chomwe mudalandira chingachokere kwa abambo anu.

Masiku ano, amayi amakhala ndi gawo lofunikira kwambiri. Anthu ambiri masiku ano ali paubwenzi wabwino ndi amayi awo kuposa momwe amachitira ndi abambo awo. Ngati Baibulo likadalembedwa lero, mafanizo a amayi akanaganiziridwanso. Koma munthawi za m'Baibulo mafanizo atate anali ofunika kwambiri.

Mulungu, yemwe nthawi zina amaulula za umayi wake, amadzitcha yekha bambo. Ngati ubale wathu ndi abambo athu apadziko lapansi ndi wabwino, ndiye kuti fanizoli limayenda bwino. Koma ngati tili ndi ubale woyipa wa abambo, zimakhala zovuta kuti tiwone zomwe Mulungu akuyesera kutiuza za ubale wathu ndi iye.

Sitili oyenera kuweruzidwa kuti Mulungu siabwino kuposa Atate wathu wapadziko lapansi. Koma mwina ndife opanga zokwanira kuti timuganizire muubwenzi wololera wabwino womwe munthu sangakhalepo. Mulungu ndi wabwino kuposa bambo wabwino kwambiri.

Kodi ife monga ana a Mulungu timamuyang'ana bwanji Mulungu ngati Atate wathu?

• Mulungu amatikonda kwambiri. Amadzipereka kuti atipindulitse. Adatilenga m'chifanizo chake ndipo akufuna kutiwona tikumaliza. Nthawi zambiri ndimakolo okha omwe timazindikira momwe tiyenera kuyamikirira makolo athu pazonse zomwe adatichitira. Mu ubale wathu ndi Mulungu, titha kumangomva zochepa zomwe akumva chifukwa cha zabwino zathu.
• Popeza timamudalira kotheratu, timayang'ana kwa Mulungu ndi chidaliro chonse. Chuma chathu sichokwanira. Timamukhulupirira kuti atipatsa zosowa zathu ndikutitsogolera m'miyoyo yathu.
• Timakhala otetezeka tsiku lililonse chifukwa timadziwa kuti Mulungu Wamphamvuyonse amatisamalira. Amadziwa zosowa zathu, kaya ndi chakudya chathu cha tsiku ndi tsiku kapena chithandizo pakagwa zadzidzidzi. Sitiyenera kutero
  mudandaule ndi nkhawa, chifukwa abambo adzatisamalira.
• Monga ana, tatsimikizika za tsogolo mu ufumu wa Mulungu. Kuti tigwiritse ntchito fanizo lina, monga olowa m'malo tidzakhala ndi chuma chodabwitsa ndikukhala mumzinda momwe golide azidzachuluka ngati fumbi. Pamenepo tidzakhala ndi chidzalo chauzimu chamtengo wapatali kuposa china chilichonse chomwe tikudziwa lero.
• Tili ndi chidaliro komanso kulimba mtima. Tikhoza kulalikira molimba mtima popanda kuopa kuzunzidwa. Ngakhale ataphedwa, sitichita mantha; chifukwa tili ndi bambo amene palibe amene angatilande.
• Tingathe kulimbana ndi ziyeso tili ndi chiyembekezo. Timadziwa kuti Atate wathu amalola kuti tivutike kutiphunzitsa kuti zinthu zitiyendere bwino m’tsogolo (Aheberi 1 Akor.2,5-11). Tili ndi chidaliro kuti akugwira ntchito m'miyoyo yathu, kuti sadzatithamangitsa.

Awa ndi madalitso ochuluka. Mwina mungaganizire zambiri. Koma ndikutsimikiza kuti palibe chabwino china chilichonse mlengalenga kuposa kukhala mwana wa Mulungu. Ili ndi dalitso lalikulu la ufumu wa Mulungu. Tikadzakhala ngati ana aang'ono, tidzalandira zonse zosangalatsa ndi madalitso a Yehova
