Zomwe Uthenga Wabwino Umaphunzitsa Zokhudza Angelo
Mauthenga abwino sanalembedwe kuti ayankhe mafunso athu onse okhudza angelo. Amangotipatsa zidziwitso zam'mbali pamene angelo atenga gawo.
Mu nkhani ya Uthenga Wabwino, angelo anaonekera pamaso pa Yesu. Gabrieli anaonekera kwa Zekariya kuti alengeze kuti adzakhala ndi mwana wamwamuna - Yohane Mbatizi. (Lukas 1,11-19). Gabrieli anauzanso Mariya kuti adzakhala ndi mwana wamwamuna (vesi 26-38). Yosefe anauzidwa izi ndi mngelo m'maloto. (Matthäus 1,20-24).
Mngelo analengeza kubadwa kwa Yesu kwa abusa, ndipo gulu lakumwamba linatamanda Mulungu. (Lukas 2,9-15). Mngelo anaonekeranso kwa Yosefe m’maloto, akumuuza kuti athawire ku Igupto ndipo akadzakhala bwino, abwerere. (Matthäus 2,13.19).
Angelo atchulidwanso ponena za kuyesedwa kwa Yesu. Satana anatchula ndime ya m’Baibulo yonena za chitetezo chomwe angelo anapereka, ndipo angelo anatumikira Yesu mayeserowo atatha. (Matthäus 4,6.11). Mngelo anathandiza Yesu m’munda wa Getsemane panthawi ya chiyeso chachikulu. (Lukas 22,43).
Angelo nawonso adachita gawo lofunika kwambiri pakuuka kwa Yesu, monga momwe Mauthenga Abwino anayi amatiuzira. Mngelo anagubuduza mwalawo nauza akazi kuti Yesu wauka. (Matthäus 28,2-5). Azimayiwo adawona mngelo m'modzi kapena awiri mkati mwa manda (Marko 1).6,5; Luka 24,4.23; Yohane 20,11).
Amithenga aumulungu adawonetsa kufunikira kwa chiukitsiro.
Yesu ananena kuti angelo adzagwiranso ntchito yofunika kwambiri iye akadzabweranso. Angelo adzatsagana naye pakubwera kwake ndi kusonkhanitsa osankhidwa kuti apulumutsidwe ndi oipa kuti awonongedwe (Mateyu 13,39-49; 24,31).
Yesu akanatha kuyitanitsa magulu a angelo, koma sanawapemphe. (Matthäus 26,53). Adzamuperekeza akadzabweranso. Angelo adzakhalapo pa chiweruzo. (Lukas 12,8-9). Mwina iyi ndi nthawi imene anthu amaona angelo “akukwera ndi kutsika pamwamba pa Mwana wa Munthu.” (Johannes 1,51).
Angelo amatha kuwoneka ngati munthu kapena ndi ulemerero wachilendo (Luka 2,9; 24,4Safa ndipo sakwatira, zomwe zikutanthauza kuti sagonana ndipo sabereka. (Lukas 20,35-36). Anthu nthawi zina amakhulupirira kuti zochitika zachilendo zimayambitsidwa ndi angelo (Yohane). 5,4; 12,29).
Yesu anati “aang’ono awa amene akhulupirira Ine” ali ndi angelo kumwamba amene amawayang’anira. (Matthäus 18,6.10). Angelo amasangalala anthu akatembenukira kwa Mulungu, ndipo angelo amabweretsa akufa olungama ku paradaiso (Luka 1).5,10; 16,22).
