Zinthu Zomwe Zilipo
Mu maulendo anga, ndawona zinthu zambiri, ndipo ndakhala ndi mwayi wokhala pansi ndikucheza ndi anthu otchuka, komanso anthu wamba a tchalitchi. Ndawona chopinga chachikulu m'miyoyo ya anthu a Mulungu. Baibulo limatiuza kuti amawonongeka chifukwa cha kusadziwa, ndipo izi ndaziona.
Sadziwa malingaliro a Mulungu kapena chifuniro Chake, ndipo chifukwa cha izi, Satana amawagwiritsa ntchito. Baibulo limatiuza kuti tisapatse mdierekezi malo, koma timukane ndipo adzakuthawani. Yesu anati, “Taonani, ndikukupatsani mphamvu pa mphamvu zonse za mdani, ndipo palibe chomwe chidzakupwetekani.”
Davide anati, “Mtima wanga uli mwa Mulungu ndipo uthenga woipa sudzandivutitsa.” M'maloto, ndinawona Satana. Poyamba, zinandidabwitsa, koma ndinatenga chikhulupiriro ndikumutsutsa ndipo anaphulika ngati buluni ndipo anasweka. Yesu anati, “Musaope!” Mulungu sanatipatse mzimu wa mantha, ndiye bwanji tiyenera kuulandira kuchokera kwa Satana? Anthu amaopa matenda, umphawi, ndi zinthu zovuta. Amaopa kutayika kwa ana awo kapena okondedwa awo, kutayika kwa malingaliro awo kapena chuma chawo cha dziko lapansi.
Mvetserani ndipo ndiloleni ndikuuzeni zomwe ndapeza ndi kupambana kwanga. Choyamba, kumbukirani ndi kukumbukira kuti Mulungu alibe tsankho. Monga momwe nyimboyo imanenera, “Zimene Mulungu wachitira ena, adzakuchitirani.” Kumbukirani, Mulungu ndi wokhoza.
Mngelo anati palibe chomwe chingatheke kwa Mulungu. Kenako, kumbukirani kuti zinthu zonse n'zotheka kwa iwo okhulupirira. Chifukwa chake, sizili kutali ndi inu. Izi sizikutanthauza kuti zinthu zonse zimangobweretsedwa m'malo othekera, koma zikutanthauza kuti tsopano, ndi ntchito ya Khristu ndi chikhulupiriro chake pa Kalvari, mutha kuchita chilichonse.
Baibulo limati Mulungu, popanda tsankho kwa anthu, watikhululukira mphulupulu zathu zonse ndikuchiritsa matenda athu onse, kuti ndi mikwingwirima Yake tachiritsidwa. Limatiuza kuti Mulungu ndi wabwino ndipo palibe wabwino koma Mulungu, zomwe zikutanthauza kuti wopanda cholakwika.
Baibulo limati Yesu, yemwe anali Mulungu m'thupi la munthu, ankayenda akuchita zabwino ndikuchiritsa onse omwe anali oponderezedwa ndi mdierekezi. Kodi mumadziwa kuti Baibulo likamanena kuti “onse,” sanafunse ngati anali Akristu kapena ochimwa? Anangoyang’ana chikhulupiriro.
Tsopano, Iye anati machiritso anali mkate wa ana, ndipo ngati mutakwera kupita ku zabwino za Mulungu popanda chilungamo cha oyera mtima, chomwe Iye anachitcha chovala chaukwati, mudzapezeka kumeneko kenako n’kuchotsedwa mu malingaliro achikondi ndi chifundo, omwe ndi dziko la kuunika (maganizo a Khristu), kupita ku maganizo a satana a mantha ndi mavuto, omwe ndi dziko lakunja la mdima ndi malingaliro ake ndi ziphunzitso zake, kuti mukhale wotayika, kukhulupirira bodza ndi kutembereredwa.
Iye anati, Pita ndipo usachimwenso, kuti chinthu choipa kwambiri chisakugwere, koma ngati mwabadwanso mwatsopano ndikukhala wokhulupirira mwa kulapa njira zanu ndi machimo anu, kuti mudzazidwe ndi Mzimu Wake, ndiye kuti mumachoka ku imfa kupita ku moyo ndikusiya chilichonse chokhudzana ndi kugonjetsedwa, matenda, kapena imfa kwamuyaya.
Tikuyembekezera kuti chikhulupiriro chathu chikule mokwanira kuti chisinthe thupi kukhala mawonekedwe ake aulemerero. Satana akhoza kutsogolera chikhulupiriro chathu kudzera m’thupi losasinthika; Komabe, uchimo sungaimbidwe mlandu chifukwa zolephera zake ndi zolakwa zake si zadala, chifukwa munthu wakunja wafa chifukwa cha thupi la Khristu ku Kalvari. Ngati chikondi cha dziko lapansi ndi njira zake, kapena chifuniro cha uchimo, chili mwa inu, simunadutse kuchokera ku imfa kupita ku moyo. Tikudziwa kuti tadutsa kuchokera ku imfa kupita ku moyo chifukwa timakonda abale ndi njira za Mulungu.
Umboni wokhawo ndi kuchita zinthu zomwe zili m'Malemba, ndi kumusangalatsa nthawi zonse pamene tikukula, mu chidziwitso ndi kuwala, kufikira ku msinkhu wa munthu wangwiro, Khristu Yesu, kukhala wangwiro monga momwe Iye alili wangwiro.
Chifuniro cha Mulungu ndikugonjetsa imfa ndikusintha thupi kuti tidutse manda. Kumbukirani, Mulungu ndiye Mzimu wa chiyero. Ndicho chifukwa chake Baibulo limalengeza kuti popanda chiyero, palibe amene adzawona moyo kapena Ambuye, chifukwa Mzimu wa chiyero ndiye Mzimu wokhawo wa moyo wosatha, ndipo umatchedwa Mzimu wa choonadi, Mzimu Woyera.
Ndi dzina, ndi Yesu. Ndicho chifukwa chake banja lonse kumwamba ndi padziko lapansi limatchedwa dzina la Yesu. Zinthu zonse zimasonkhanitsidwa m'thupi lake. Mwa ubatizo wa Mzimu umodzi, timakhala ziwalo za thupi la Khristu, lomwe ndi mpingo, kenako timatenga dzina la thupi kapena la banja ndikutaya umunthu wathu mwa imfa ya thupi la Khristu pa Kalvari. Iye anakhala ife mu imfa, kuti tikhale Iye mu moyo. Anakhala machimo athu kuti ife tikhale chilungamo chake. Ananyamula matenda athu ndi zofooka zathu pamtengo kuti tikhale ndi mtendere ndi thanzi lake.
Chilango cha mtendere wathu chinaikidwa pa Iye, kotero pamene tikuvutika, sichithandiza pokhapokha ngati chili chifukwa cha Iye. Chikhulupiriro chimazimitsa mivi yonse yoyaka moto ya Satana. Tikamaopa ndi kuda nkhawa, ndi zopusa chifukwa zimatigonjetsa chifukwa cha kusakhulupirira, komwe ndi uchimo, ndipo moyo wochimwa udzafa ndithu.
Kusakhulupirira kumaletsa Mulungu m'moyo wanu pokupatsani zosowa zanu. Ndicho chifukwa chake Mulungu anawagwetsa m'chipululu. Analetsa Woyera wa Israyeli ponena kuti, Kodi Mulungu angakonzekere malo ndi chakudya m'chipululu? Paulo anati anthu ambiri amafa kapena kugona chifukwa amalephera kupulumutsa matupi awo, komanso mzimu wawo, ku matenda, mantha, ndi uchimo.
Tikudziwa pang'ono, ndipo pamene Mulungu akuulula Mawu a choonadi mu nyengo yake kapena nthawi yake, timamvetsetsa mzere ndi mzere, ndi lamulo ndi lamulo, ku chidzalo, ndipo timasinthidwa kuchoka ku ulemerero kupita ku ulemerero kupita ku msinkhu wangwiro kuti tigonjetse imfa. Tikudziwa pang'ono, koma posachedwa, gawo lidzakwaniritsa ungwiro.
Ngati mungazindikire kuti ndinu thupi la Khristu, ndipo imfa ilibe mphamvu pa inu; kuti Mulungu, Mzimu, akukhala m'thupi la munthu ndipo kuti muli ubwino m'kachisi uyu wochiritsa, ndiye kuti mutha kuchiritsidwa ndikupulumutsidwa. Pemphero la chikhulupiriro lidzachiritsa odwala, ndipo ngati achita machimo aliwonse, adzakhululukidwa.
Yohane anati, “Chihema cha Mulungu chili pakati pa anthu.” Dziko lapansi ndi wotsutsa Khristu adzanyoza dzina la Mulungu lotchedwa Yesu, ndipo mpingo uwu kapena gulu la okhulupirira omwe amatchedwa ndi dzina Lake, osati dzina la mpingo, amatchedwa Akhristu (ofanana ndi Khristu).
Kukwera m'chipembedzo ndi dzina la mpingo kumatanthauza kukwera njira ina, koma Yesu, Mawu, anati, “Ine ndine khomo la khola la nkhosa.”
Tikapatsa Satana malo chifukwa chosakhulupirira malonjezo a Mulungu, timachita ngati Hava. Timayambitsa mavuto. Tikhoza kutulutsa mzimu kapena kutulutsa Satana, koma adzasiya chisa chodetsedwa cha matenda ndi mavuto, zomwe nthawi zina zimafuna chozizwitsa kuti abwezeretse zotayika ndikuchiritsa mabala a munthu.
Ingokumbukirani kuti Mulungu anati, “Mtendere padziko lapansi ndi chifuniro chabwino kwa munthu.” Mulungu akufuna kuti chifuniro Chake kapena Mawu Ake achitike padziko lapansi monga momwe zilili mwa inu. Dziko lapansi ndi thupi lanu, monga kumwamba kuli mzimu wanu, kotero Iye akhoza kuwombola dziko lapansi ndi thupi ndikusintha. Mulungu akunena kuti, “Bwerani! Ine ndili ndi inu, ndipo sindidzakusiyani kapena kukusiyani. Mutha kugonjetsa ndi mphamvu yanga ndi chikhulupiriro kapena ntchito Zanga. Muli ndi mphamvu zonse pa mdani. Musalole kuti akuvulazeni! Muphwanye mutu wake, womwe ndi malingaliro akale a thupi, ndipo muugwetse! Musadalire luntha lanu, koma khulupirirani Ambuye ndipo ndidzakwaniritsa. Ndidzakupatsani zosowa zanu zonse monga mwa chuma changa cha ulemerero, pakuti ndakupatsani, mwa Khristu, zinthu zonse zokhudzana ndi moyo, kukuyeretsani, kukukwaniritsani kosatha ndikukulemekezani, podziwa kuti palibe amene angakuyimbeni mlandu chifukwa ndinu osankhidwa anga, ndipo palibe chomwe chingakulekanitseni ndi chikondi Changa chifukwa mwabadwa mwa Mulungu. Simungachimwe, ndipo palibe amene angakunyengeni. Chowonadi chakumasulani, ndipo mdani aliyense amene akuukirani pa chiweruzo, ndidzamutsutsa ndi kumuwononga. Atero Ambuye!” Ndikumva Mzimu Wake ukunena kuti, “Amen!”
Muli ndi kudzoza kochokera kwa Woyera kuti mudziwe zonse. Mulungu anayang'ana pansi kuchokera kumwamba namva kubuula kwa akaidi, namasula iwo omwe anaikidwa ku imfa. Iye, chifukwa cha inu, wawononga Satana. Muli ndi mphamvu pa imfa ngati mungakhulupirire. Zonse ndizotheka kwa iwo okhulupirira.
Tiyeni tikhale olimba mu mphamvu ya mphamvu Yake, kapena ntchito mwa chikhulupiriro, ndikukweza manja ofooka a kufooka m'miyoyo yathu ndi mwa ena. Lolani ofooka anene kuti, “Ndili wamphamvu ndi mphamvu Yake,” kuti olumala asapatuke chifukwa cha kusakhulupirira kwathu, koma Paulo anati, “M'malo mwake achire.”
Tiyeni tonse pamodzi tidzuke, titenge ndikukhazikitsa ufumu wa Mulungu ndi chifuniro chake padziko lapansi, kuti angelo adzuke ndikulengeza kuti maufumu a dziko lapansi akhala maufumu a Khristu. Tiyeni tilimbikitse zinthu zotsalazo, kuti Iye asabwere ndi kuchotsa choyikapo nyali chathu. Ameni.
