kulungamitsa

Kulungamitsidwa ndi mchitidwe wa chisomo cha Mulungu mwa ndi mwa Yesu Khristu, chimene wokhulupirira amayesedwa wolungama pamaso pa Mulungu. Chotero, mwa chikhulupiriro mwa Yesu Kristu, munthu amalandira chikhululukiro cha Mulungu ndi kupeza mtendere ndi Ambuye ndi Mombolo wake. Khristu ndiye Mbewu ndipo pangano lakale latha. M’pangano latsopano, unansi wathu ndi Mulungu umazikidwa pa maziko osiyana, ozikidwa pa pangano losiyana. ( Aroma 3:21-31; 4,1-8; 5,1.9; Agalatiya 2,16)

Kulungamitsidwa mwa chikhulupiriro

Mulungu anaitana Abrahamu kuchokera ku Mesopotamiya ndipo analonjeza mbadwa zake kuti adzawapatsa dziko la Kanani. Abrahamu atakhala m’dziko la Kanani, kunachitika kuti mawu a Yehova anadza kwa Abramu m’chivumbulutso: Usaope, Abramu! Ine ndine chishango chako ndi mphotho yako yaikulu ndithu. Koma Abramu anati, Yehova Mulungu wanga, mudzandipatsa ine chiyani? Ndipita kumeneko wopanda ana, ndipo mtumiki wanga Eliezere wa ku Damasiko adzalandira nyumba yanga... Sunandipatse ine mbewu; ndipo taonani, mmodzi wa akapolo anga adzakhala cholowa changa. Ndipo taonani, Yehova anati kwa iye, Sadzakhala colowa cako, koma iye amene adzaturuka m'thupi mwako adzakhala colowa cako. Ndipo anamuuza atuluke, nati, Yang'ana kumwamba, uwerenge nyenyezi; mukhoza kuziwerenga Ndipo adati kwa Iye, Mbewu zako zidzachuluka.1. Mose 15,1-5 ndi).

Limenelo linali lonjezo lodabwitsa. Koma chodabwitsa kwambiri ndi chimene timaŵerenga mu vesi 6 : “Abramu anakhulupirira Yehova, ndipo anamuyesa iye chilungamo.” Awa ndi mawu ofunika a kulungamitsidwa mwa chikhulupiriro. Abrahamu anayesedwa wolungama chifukwa cha chikhulupiriro. Mtumwi Paulo akuwonjezera lingaliro ili mu Aroma 4 ndi Agalatiya 3.

Akristu amaloŵa malonjezo a Abrahamu pamaziko a chikhulupiriro—ndipo malamulo amene Mose anapatsidwa sangalepheretse malonjezowo. Mfundo imeneyi imagwiritsidwa ntchito ku Agalatiya 3,17 anaphunzitsa. Ichi ndi gawo lofunika kwambiri.

Chikhulupiriro, osati lamulo

Mu Agalatiya Paulo anatsutsana ndi mpatuko walamulo. Mu Agalatiya 3,2 akufunsa kuti:
"Ndikufuna kudziwa izi kuchokera kwa inu nokha: Kodi mudalandira Mzimu kudzera mu ntchito za lamulo, kapena ndi kulalikira kwa chikhulupiriro?"

Limafunsa funso lofananalo mu vesi 5 : “Chotero iye amene akupatsani inu Mzimu, nachita izi mwa inu, kodi azichita ndi ntchito za lamulo, kapena ndi kulalikira kwa chikhulupiriro?
 

Paulo akuti mu vesi 6-7, “Chomwecho kudakhala kwa Abrahamu: anakhulupirira Mulungu, ndipo kudawerengedwa kwa iye chilungamo. Chifukwa chake zindikirani kuti iwo a chikhulupiriro ali ana a Abrahamu.” Paulo akugwira mawu 1. Mose 15. Ngati tili ndi chikhulupiriro, ndife ana a Abrahamu. Timatengera malonjezo amene Mulungu anamulonjeza.

Zindikirani vesi 9, “Chotero iwo ali a chikhulupiriro adzadalitsidwa pamodzi ndi Abrahamu wokhulupirira.” Chikhulupiriro chimabweretsa madalitso. Koma ngati tidalira kusunga lamulo, tidzatsutsidwa. Chifukwa chakuti sititsatira zimene lamulo limafuna. Koma Khristu anatipulumutsa ife kwa izo. Iye anatifera ife. Zindikirani ndime 14, “Iye anatiombola ife, kuti dalitso la Abrahamu likadze pa amitundu mwa Khristu Yesu, ndi kuti ife tikalandire Mzimu wolonjezedwa mwa chikhulupiriro.”

Ndiyeno, m’mavesi 15-16 , Paulo akugwiritsa ntchito chitsanzo chothandiza kuuza Akristu a ku Galatiya kuti Chilamulo cha Mose sichingafafanize malonjezo operekedwa kwa Abrahamu. zatsimikizika, ndipo sizionjezerapo chilichonse. Tsopano lonjezo laperekedwa kwa Abrahamu ndi kwa mbewu yake.

“Mbeu” imeneyo ndi Yesu Kristu, koma si Yesu yekha amene adzalandira malonjezo amene analonjezedwa kwa Abulahamu. Paulo ananena kuti Akhristu nawonso adzalandira malonjezo amenewa. Ngati tili ndi chikhulupiriro mwa Khristu, ndife ana a Abrahamu ndipo tidzalandira malonjezano kudzera mwa Yesu Khristu.

Lamulo lodutsa

Tsopano ife tikufika ku vesi 17, “Tsopano ndikutanthauza ichi: Pangano limene linatsimikizidwa kale ndi Mulungu silinaswe ndi lamulo limene linapatsidwa zaka mazana anayi kudza makumi atatu pambuyo pake, kuti lonjezolo liwonongeke.

Lamulo la pa Phiri la Sinai silingaswe pangano ndi Abrahamu, limene linazikidwa pa chikhulupiriro m’malonjezo a Mulungu. Ndiyo mfundo imene Paulo akunena. Akristu ali ndi unansi ndi Mulungu wozikidwa pa chikhulupiriro, osati lamulo. Kumvera n’kwabwino, koma timamvera mogwirizana ndi pangano latsopano, osati lakale. Paulo akugogomezera apa kuti lamulo la Mose —pangano lakale —linali lakanthaŵi. Zinangowonjezeredwa mpaka Khristu anabwera. Tikuwona kuti mu vesi 19, “Nanga chilamulo nchiyani? Chinawonjezedwa chifukwa cha machimo, kufikira atafika mbadwa imene lonjezanolo linaperekedwa.”

Khristu ndiye mbadwa ndipo pangano lakale ndilakale. Mu pangano latsopano, ubale wathu ndi Mulungu umakhazikika pamaziko ena, umakhazikitsidwa pamgwirizano wina.

Tiyeni tiwerenge mavesi 24-26: “Chotero chilamulo chidakhala namkungwi wathu kwa Khristu, kuti tikayesedwe olungama ndi chikhulupiriro. Koma chikhulupiriro chitadza, sitilinso pansi pa wolangayo. Pakuti inu nonse muli ana a Mulungu mwa chikhulupiriro cha mwa Khristu Yesu.” Ife sitiri pansi pa malamulo a pangano lakale.
 
Tsopano tiyeni tipitirire ku vesi 29, “Ngati muli a Khristu, ndiye kuti muli ana a Abrahamu, olowa nyumba monga mwa lonjezano.” Mfundo yake ndi yakuti Akhristu amalandira Mzimu Woyera pa maziko a chikhulupiriro. Timayesedwa olungama ndi chikhulupiriro kapena kuyesedwa olungama ndi Mulungu mwa chikhulupiriro. Timayesedwa olungama pa maziko a chikhulupiriro, osati mwa kusunga lamulo, ndipo ndithudi osati pa maziko a pangano lakale. Tikamakhulupirira lonjezo la Mulungu kudzera mwa Yesu Khristu, timakhala pa ubwenzi wabwino ndi Mulungu.

Mwanjira ina, ubale wathu ndi Mulungu umakhazikika pachikhulupiriro ndi lonjezo, monga zidaliri ndi Abrahamu. Malamulo owonjezedwa ku Sinai sangasinthe lonjezo lopangidwa kwa Abrahamu, ndipo malamulowa sangasinthe lonjezo loperekedwa kwa onse omwe ndi ana a Abrahamu mwa chikhulupiriro. Malamulo awa adatha ntchito pomwe Khristu adamwalira ndipo tsopano tili m'pangano latsopano.

Ngakhale mdulidwe umene Abrahamu anaulandira monga chizindikiro cha pangano lake sungathe kusintha lonjezo loyamba lozikidwa pa chikhulupiriro. Mu Aroma 4 Paulo akusonyeza kuti pamene anali asanadulidwe, chikhulupiriro chake chinatcha Abrahamu wolungama ndipo chotero wolandiridwa ndi Mulungu. Patapita zaka zosachepera 14 kuti mdulidwe unalamulidwa. Mdulidwe wakuthupi siwofunika kwa Akristu lerolino. Mdulidwe tsopano ndi nkhani ya mu mtima (Aroma 2,29).

Lamulo silingathe kupulumutsa

Lamulo silingatipatse chipulumutso. Zomwe zingachite ndikutiweruza chifukwa tonse ndife ophwanya malamulo. Mulungu anadziwiratu kuti palibe amene angasunge lamuloli. Lamulo limatilozera kwa Khristu. Lamulo silingatipatse chipulumutso, koma lingatithandizenso kuwona kufunikira kwathu kwa chipulumutso. Zimatithandiza kuzindikira kuti chilungamo chiyenera kukhala mphatso, osati chinthu chomwe tingapeze.

Tiyerekeze kuti Tsiku Lachiweruzo likubwera ndipo woweruzayo akukufunsani chifukwa chake ayenera kukulowetsani kudziko lake. Mungayankhe bwanji Kodi tinganene kuti timamvera malamulo ena? Sindikukhulupirira, chifukwa woweruzayo amatha kunena mosavuta malamulo omwe sitinasunge, machimo omwe tidachita mosazindikira ndipo sitinalapirepo. Sitinganene kuti tinali okwanira. Ayi - zonse zomwe tingachite ndikupempha chifundo. Timakhulupirira kuti Khristu anafa kuti atipulumutse ku machimo onse. Adafa kuti atilanditse ku chilango cha chilamulo. Ndiwo maziko athu okha a chipulumutso.

Inde, chikhulupiriro chimatitsogolera ku kumvera. Pangano latsopano lili ndi malamulo ake angapo. Yesu amafuna nthawi yathu, mitima yathu ndi ndalama zathu. Yesu adathetsa malamulo ambiri, komanso adatsimikizanso ena mwa malamulowo ndikuwaphunzitsa kuti akuyenera kusungidwa mu mzimu osati mwachiphamaso chabe. Tiyenera kuyang'ana kuziphunzitso za Yesu ndi atumwi kuti tiwone momwe chikhulupiriro chachikhristu chiyenera kugwirira ntchito m'pangano lathu latsopano.

Khristu anatifera ife kuti tikhale ndi moyo mwa Iye. Tinamasulidwa ku ukapolo wa uchimo kuti tikhale akapolo a chilungamo. Tikuitanidwa kuti tizitumikirana, osati tokha. Khristu amafuna kwa ife zonse zomwe tili nazo ndi zonse zomwe tili. Tidayitanidwa kumvera - koma timapulumutsidwa ndi chikhulupiriro.

Kulungamitsidwa mwa chikhulupiriro

Izi tikuziwona mu Aroma 3. Mu ndime yaifupi, Paulo akufotokoza dongosolo la chipulumutso. Tiyeni tione mmene ndimeyi ikutsimikizira zimene tinaona m’buku la Agalatiya. “…pakuti palibe munthu angakhale wolungama pamaso pake ndi ntchito za lamulo. Pakuti uchimo udziwika ndi lamulo. Koma tsopano, popanda chilamulo, chilungamo cha Mulungu chawululidwa, chochitiridwa umboni m’chilamulo ndi mwa aneneri.” ( vv. 20-21 ).

Malembo a Chipangano Chakale adaneneratu za chipulumutso mwa chisomo kudzera mu chikhulupiriro mwa Yesu Khristu, ndipo sizitero mwa lamulo la chipangano chakale koma ndi chikhulupiriro. Umu ndiye maziko a mawu a Chipangano Chatsopano a ubale wathu ndi Mulungu kudzera mwa Mpulumutsi wathu Yesu Khristu.

Paulo akupitiriza mu vesi 22-24, “Koma ndinena za chilungamo pamaso pa Mulungu, chimene chimadza mwa chikhulupiriro cha mwa Yesu Khristu kwa onse akukhulupirira. Pakuti palibe kusiyana pano: onse ali ochimwa, ndi opanda ulemerero umene anayenera kukhala nawo ndi Mulungu, ndipo ayesedwa olungama opanda chifukwa ndi chisomo chake mwa chiwombolo cha mwa Kristu Yesu.”

Chifukwa chakuti Yesu anatifera, tingayesedwe olungama. Mulungu amalungamitsa iwo amene ali ndi chikhulupiriro mwa Khristu - choncho palibe amene angadzitamandire kuti iye amasunga bwino lamulo. Paulo akupitiriza mu vesi 28, “Chotero tiyesa kuti munthu ayesedwa wolungama popanda ntchito za lamulo, ndi chikhulupiriro chokha.

Awa ndi mawu akuya a mtumwi Paulo. Mofanana ndi Paulo, Yakobo amatichenjeza za chikhulupiriro chilichonse chimene chimanyalanyaza malamulo a Mulungu. Chikhulupiriro cha Abrahamu chinamupangitsa kumvera Mulungu (1. Mose 26,4-5). Paulo akunena za chikhulupiriro chenicheni, mtundu wa chikhulupiriro chimene chimaphatikizapo kukhulupirika kwa Kristu, kufunitsitsa kotheratu kumtsatira Iye. Koma ngakhale zili choncho, iye akuti, chikhulupiriro ndicho chimatipulumutsa, osati ntchito.

Mu Aroma 5,1-2 Paulo akulemba kuti: “Popeza tayesedwa olungama ndi chikhulupiriro, tikhala ndi mtendere ndi Mulungu mwa Ambuye wathu Yesu Kristu; mwa iye ifenso tiri ndi malowedwe mwa chikhulupiriro ku chisomo ichi m’mene tirikuyimamo, ndipo tikondwera m’chiyembekezo cha ulemerero umene uli nkudza, umene Mulungu adzapatsa.”

Ndi chikhulupiriro tili ndi ubale wabwino ndi Mulungu. Ndife mabwenzi ake, osati adani ake. Chifukwa cha ichi, pa Tsiku Lachiweruzo, tidzatha kuyimirira pamaso pake. Tili ndi chikhulupiriro m'malonjezo omwe tapatsidwa kudzera mwa Yesu Khristu. Paul akufotokoza mu Roman 8,1-4 Komanso:

“Choncho tsopano palibe kutsutsidwa kwa iwo amene ali mwa Khristu Yesu. + Pakuti chilamulo cha mzimu + wopatsa moyo mwa Khristu Yesu + chakumasulani ku chilamulo cha uchimo ndi imfa. Pakuti chimene chilamulo sichikanatha kuchita, pokhala chofowoka ndi thupi, Mulungu anachichita: anatumiza Mwana wake m’chifaniziro cha thupi lauchimo, ndi chifukwa cha uchimo, natsutsa uchimo m’thupi, kuti chilungamo chofunidwa ndi lamulo chikhale m’thupi. chikakwaniritsidwe kwa ife amene sitikhala ndi moyo tsopano monga mwa thupi, koma monga mwa Mzimu.

Potero timawona kuti ubale wathu ndi Mulungu umakhazikika pakukhulupirira Yesu Khristu. Chimenecho ndiye mgwirizano womwe Mulungu adapangana nafe. Amalonjeza kuti adzationa olungama ngati tili ndi chikhulupiriro mwa Mwana wake. Lamulo silingasinthe ife, koma Khristu angasinthe. Lamulo limatitsutsa ku imfa, koma Khristu amatilonjeza moyo. Lamulo silingathe kutipulumutsa ku ukapolo wauchimo, koma Khristu angatipulumutse. Khristu amatipatsa ufulu, koma si ufulu wonyalanyaza - ndi ufulu womutumikira.

Chikhulupiriro chimatipangitsa kukhala ofunitsitsa kutsatira Ambuye ndi Mpulumutsi wathu mu zonse zomwe amatiuza. Tikuwona malamulo omveka bwino okondana wina ndi mnzake, kudalira Yesu Khristu, kulalikira uthenga wabwino, kugwira ntchito mogwirizana mchikhulupiriro, kusonkhana ngati mpingo, kumangirirana wina ndi mnzake mchikhulupiriro, kuchita ntchito zabwino, zoyera ndi zamakhalidwe abwino kukhala ndi moyo, kukhala mwamtendere, ndikukhululukira iwo amene amatilakwira.

Malamulo atsopanowa ndi ovuta. Amatenga nthawi yathu yonse. Masiku athu onse ndi odzipereka pakutumikira Yesu Khristu. Tiyenera kukhala achangu pantchito yake, ndipo si njira yotakata komanso yosavuta. Ndi ntchito yovuta, yovuta, ntchito yomwe ochepa ali okonzeka kuchita.

Tiyeneranso kunena kuti chikhulupiliro chathu sichingatipulumutse – Mulungu satilandira potengera ubwino wa chikhulupiriro chathu, koma kudzera mu chikhulupiriro ndi kukhulupirika kwa Mwana wake, Yesu Khristu. Chikhulupiriro chathu sichidzakwaniritsa zomwe "chiyenera" kukhala - koma sitipulumutsidwa ndi muyeso wa chikhulupiriro chathu, koma pakudalira Khristu, amene ali ndi chikhulupiriro chokwanira kwa ife tonse.
