Mulungu m'modzi mwa Atatu

1. Mulungu m'modzi

Mumve, Israeli: Ambuye Mulungu Wathu, Ambuye ndi m'modzi: …’ Deut. 6:4.

'Osanditsatira Palibe Mulungu Anapangidwa, Ndipo padzakhala munthu pambuyo panga.’ Isaiah 43:10.

'Ndine woyamba ndipo ndine womaliza; Kupatula ine kulibe Mulungu.’ Isaiah 44:6.

'Kodi pali Mulungu wina aliyense kupatula ine? Ayi, Palibe mwala wina; Sindikudziwa. ‘Isaiah 44:8.

• (Vesili limakhala lothandiza kwambiri ndi Mormons, omwe amadzinenera kuti pali milungu yomwe imalamulira padziko lonse lapansi. Izi zipangitsa Mulungu kukhala wabodza, Popeza sakanakhoza kukhala osadziwa kukhala kwawo!)

'Tikudziwa kuti fano si kanthu mdziko muno ndipo palibe Mulungu koma m'modzi. Chifukwa ngakhale atakhala otchedwa milungu, Kaya ndi Padziko Lapansi (Monga zilidi ambiri “milungu” ndi ambiri “ambuye”), komabe kwa ife pali Mulungu m'modzi, Atate, kwa iwo zonse zidabwera ndi omwe timakhala; Ndipo pali Ambuye m'modzi, Yesu Khristu, mwa iye zinthu zonse zimabwera komanso zomwe timakhala. ‘1 Cor. 8:4-6.

2. Anthu atatu

Munthu amadziwika ndi kukhala ndi malingaliro, kufuna ndi malingaliro awo; Ngakhale izi siziyenera kusokonezedwa ndi kudzidalira: Anthu ambiri amakondana, Zomwe zimakhudzidwa ndizomwe zili ndi malingaliro a mnzake, zokhumba ndi malingaliro.

2.1 Atate

Sikofunika kutsimikizira kuti Atate ndi ndani. Kuti iye ndi Mulungu amanenedwa momveka bwino mu vesi lomaliza latchulidwa. Yesu ananena za Mulungu monga Atate: 'Atate Wathu Kumwamba, Alodwd akhale dzina lanu, ..’ (Mt. 6:9), 'Ndikubwerera kwa Atate wanga ndi abambo anu, kwa Mulungu wanga ndi Mulungu wanu’ (Jn. 20:17). Lemba ladzaza ndi maumboni kuulula abambo ngati mphamvu yabodza, koma monga anzeru, wamphamvu komanso womverera.

2.2 Mwana

Sipangakhale malo okayika kuti Yesu ndi munthu wokhala ndi malingaliro, kufuna ndi malingaliro ake. Ngakhale nthawi zonse amachita zofuna za Atate (Jn. 6:38; 8:29) Zinali nkhani ya 'osati kufuna kwanga, Koma anu achitidwe’ (Lk. 21:42).

Zambiri, komabe, alephera kuzindikira kuti ndi Mulungu. Ayuda anali otenthedwa maganizo kwambiri ponena kuti kuli Mulungu mmodzi yekha kotero kuti munthu wina aliyense adzinenera kukhala Mulungu kapena Mwana wa Mulungu. (zomwe zinali zofanana – kuwona Jn 5:18) nthawi yomweyo anatengedwa ngati mwano.

Komabe, ngakhale kuti Yesu kaŵirikaŵiri anapeŵa kukangana pankhaniyi ndipo anagwiritsira ntchito dzina laulemu lakuti ‘Mwana wa Munthu’ (Mt. 16:13-20), Iye ananenadi zimenezi.

Iye anavomereza kulongosola kwa Petro kukhala ‘Mwana wa Mulungu’ mu Mt. 16:16 ndi Afarisi mu Mt. 26:63-4. Momveka bwino kwambiri, anagwiritsa ntchito dzina la Mulungu limene linavumbulidwa kwa Mose (Ex. 3:14) m’mawu ake ‘ine ndikukuuzani zoona, Abrahamu asanabadwe, Ndine!’ ndipo anatsala pang'ono kuponyedwa miyala pomwepo (Jn. 8:59). Kawiri m'mbuyomu pokambirana (Jn. 8:24 & 28) anali atagwiritsa ntchito mutu womwewo (ngakhale mophimbidwa kwambiri zomwe sizimatuluka momveka bwino pakumasulira), ndipo Ayuda anali atagwiritsa ntchito koyamba: Chifukwa chake palibe kusamvana Yesu’ kutanthaza. Ngakhale zidatenga Petro ndi ophunzira ena nthawi ina kuti azindikire kuti Yesu ndi Mulungu, Palibe kukayika kuti iwo adatero.

John akuyamba uthenga wake ndi mawuwo, 'Pachiyambi panali mawu, Ndipo Mawu anali ndi Mulungu, Ndipo Mawu anali Mulungu,’ kenako nkuti, 'Mawu anasandulika thupi nakhala pakati pathu’ (Jn. 1:1 & 14).

• (Umboni wa Yehova’ amati izi ziyenera kukhala 'mulungu’ chifukwa Chigriki choyambirira sichiti 'Mulungu’ alibe. 'Mulungu’ amagwiritsidwa ntchito kasanu koyamba 18 mavesi ndipo wina akuti 'Mulungu'. Komanso, mawonekedwe a mawu omwe amagwiritsidwa ntchito m'Chigiriki samangopangitsa kuti zikhale zofunikira kwa '’ kuti asiyidwe: Zimatsindika Mawu oti 'Mulungu’ Mwa kuyika kaye.)

Tomasi adavomereza Yesu kukhala 'Mbuye wanga ndi Mulungu wanga!’ (Jn. 20:28)

• (Ichi ndi vesi lothandiza la J.W, Popeza kutanthauzira kwenikweni ndi 'MMBONI WA INE NDI MULUNGU WE!’ ndi Yesu, M'malo mokonza Thomas, zimatsimikizira ponena kuti 'chifukwa mwandiwona, Mwakhulupirira. ')

Paulo akuti 'ndiye chifanizo cha Mulungu wosaonekayo, woyamba kubadwa pa chilengedwe chonse. Chifukwa ndi iye zinthu zonse zidalengedwa: Zinthu Zakumwamba ndi Padziko Lapansi, Zowoneka komanso zosaoneka, Kaya mipando kapena mphamvu kapena olamulira kapena olamulira; zinthu zonse zinalengedwa ndi Iye komanso kwa iye. Ali patsogolo pazinthu zonse, ndipo mwa iye zinthu zonse zigwirizana. Ndipo ndiye mutu wa thupi, chalichi; ndiye woyamba ndi woyamba kubadwa pakati pa akufa, kotero kuti mu zonse ayenera kukhala ndi ukulu. Chifukwa Mulungu anasangalala kuti akhalebe mwa iye, ndipo kudzera mwa iye kuti ayanjane pa zinthu zonse, ..’ (Col. 1:15-20)

Wolemba wa Ahebri alemba kuti Mulungu 'walankhula ndi Mwana wake, Yemwe adasankha wolowa m'malo wa zinthu zonse, ndipo mwa iwo adapanga chilengedwe chonse. Mwanayo ndi kuwala kwa ulemerero wa Mulungu ndi mawonekedwe enieni a kukhala ake, Pezera zinthu zonse ndi mawu ake amphamvu.’ (Heb. 1:2-3) Kenako akuti Psalm 45:6-7 Ndiye Atate yemweyo wonena za Yesu: 'Mpando wanu wachifumu, O Mulungu, adzakhala nthawi zonse, ndipo chilungamo chidzakhala ndodo ya ufumu wanu. Mumakonda chilungamo komanso kudana ndi zoipa; chifukwa chake Mulungu, Mulungu Wanu, wakupatsani anzanu’ (Heb. 1:8-9)

Yesaya akuti 'adzatchedwa Phungu Wodabwitsa, Mulungu Wamphamvu, Abambo osatha, Kalonga wa Mtendere.’ (Is. 9:6)

Yesu anagwiritsa ntchito dala dzina la Mulungu lakuti ‘Ine ndine.’ Isaiah 43:10 akuti, ‘Ine ndine woyamba ndi wotsiriza; popanda ine palibe Mulungu’: koma Yesu mwa Revelation 1:17; 2:8 & 22:13 akuti ‘Ine ndine Woyamba ndi Wotsiriza’.

2.3 Mzimu Woyera

Ndi ochepa amene angatsutse Umulungu wa Mzimu Woyera. Iye akufotokozedwa mosiyanasiyana kukhala ‘Mzimu wa Mulungu’ (Rom. 8:9), ‘Mzimu Woyera wa Mulungu’ (Eph. 4:30), ‘Mzimu wa ulemerero ndi wa Mulungu’ (1 Pet. 4:14), ‘Mzimu wa Yehova’ (2 Cor. 3:17), ‘Mzimu wa Yehova Mulungu’ (Is. 61:1), ‘Mzimu wa Kristu’ (Rom. 8:9) ndi ‘Mzimu Wamuyaya’ (Heb. 9:14), kungotchula ochepa chabe a mayina ake.

Kuyera kwake kopambanitsa kumasonyezedwa bwino lomwe m’mawu a Yesu, ‘Ndikuuzani zoona, Machimo onse ndi zonyoza za anthu zidzakhululukidwa kwa iwo. Koma aliyense amene adzanyoza Mzimu Woyera sadzakhululukidwa nthawi zonse; ali ndi mlandu wa tchimo losatha.’ (Mark 3:28-9). (Zindikirani, komabe, kuti mawu apatsogolo ndi apambuyo akusonyeza kuti mwano wotero ndi kukana mwadala ndi podziwa ntchito yopulumutsa ya Mzimu Woyera. – onaninso Heb. 10:29.)

Mipatuko yambiri imakana kuvomereza Mzimu Woyera ngati munthu.

• Mbiri ya J.W. ‘New World Translation,’ Mwachitsanzo, nthawi zonse amatanthauza ‘Mzimu Woyera’ monga ‘mzimu woyera’ ndi kugwiritsa ntchito '’ m'malo mwa 'iye'. Yoyamba imatetezedwa ndi iwo pazifukwa zomwe Chigriki kaŵirikaŵiri chimasiya ‘the’ ndipo chachiwiri n’chakuti liwu Lachigiriki lotanthauza mzimu limakhala lopanda malire. Zinthu zonsezi ndi zoona: koma 35 kuchokera ku 55 Maumboni a Mzimu Woyera mu Machitidwe amagwiritsira ntchito ‘’ ndi zonse koma 2 za 17 Nthawi zina Mzimu Woyera ndiye mutu wa mawu akuti ‘the’ (mmodzi wa mzake 2, Acts 19:2, kumatanthauza kuŵerenga ‘Mzimu Woyera’). Ndipo ngakhale kuti olembawo anakakamizika ndi galamala Yachigiriki kugwiritsira ntchito ‘iwo’ mogwirizana ndi liwu loti ‘mzimu’, zofuna zawo kwa iye’ muwona mu John 16:7-15, kumene wachimuna ‘Counsellor’ amagwiritsidwa ntchito mu Jn 16:7, kutsatiridwa ndi ‘mzimu’ mu Jn 16:13. Ngakhale izi mawu akuti 'Pamene iye’ ndi ‘payekha’ mu Jn 16:13 ndipo ‘Iye adzatero’ mu Jn 16:15 kugwiritsabe ntchito mawonekedwe achimuna.

Sitifunikira kukhala akatswiri achi Greek, komabe! Kuwerenga mophweka kwa Yohane, mitu 14 ku 16 (Jn 14:15-16:15), adzaonetsa msanga kuti Mzimu Woyera ndi munthu: amatiphunzitsa ndi kutikumbutsa (Jn 14:26), amachitira umboni za Yesu (Jn 15:26), omangidwa (Jn 16:8), otsogolera, amalankhula ndi kumva (Jn 16:13) natenga za Yesu ndi kuzidziwitsa kwa ife (Jn 16:14-5).

Aroma, mutu 8, ndizothandiza makamaka kutsimikizira iwo omwe sakufuna kuthana ndi chowonadi ichi. Rom 8:34 akuti ‘Khristu .. ali kudzanja lamanja la Mulungu, Komanso amatithandizanso.’ Kutetezedwa ndi pamene wina akufuna kuti achonderere ndi munthu m'modzi m'malo mwa wina. Funsani ngati Khristu atiyimira ngati sanali munthu? Inde sichoncho! Tsopano yang'anani Rom 8:26-7: Mzimu Woyera amatithandizanso, Chifukwa chake ayenera kukhala munthu. Osati zokhazo, koma 'malingaliro a Mzimu’ ikulankhulidwa bwino.

Acts 13:2-4 ndi Acts 16:6-7 zikuwonekeratu kuti mzimu ukugwiritsa ntchito zofuna zake zokhudzana ndi tchalitchi. Rom. 8:26 amalankhula za mzimu wobuula kwa ife ndi Eph. 4:30 amatiuza 'osamvetsa kuti Mzimu Woyera wa Mulungu, amene mudasindikizidwa ndi omwe mudasindikizidwa tsiku la chiwombolo’ (onaninso Is. 63:10). Motero zikhumbo zonse za munthu weniweni zimasonyezedwa bwino mwa Mzimu Woyera.
