Kuyang'ana kuthekera kuti ena a Yesu’ mawu angakhale kuti anakokomeza dala kaamba ka kutsindika kumatithandiza kuwona kuti mafotokozedwe ena owopsa kwambiri amene tamvapo onena za moyo wa pambuyo pa imfa angakhale chifukwa cha kusamvetsetsana.. koma, mbali inayi, sitiyenera kunyalanyaza mfundo yakuti ndime zotere zilipo kuti zitsindike kufunikira kwa mfundo zimene Yesu akunena.. Choncho, tisanapitirire kulingalira chiphunzitso chokhudza nkhaniyi m'malo ena mu Chipangano Chatsopano, kungakhale kothandiza kufotokoza mwachidule zimene tinganene motsimikizirika pamaziko a Yesu’ maphunziro ake.

Zina mwa ziphunzitsozi zidzakhala zodziwika bwino kuchokera muzokambirana zomwe takambiranazi ndipo zikhoza kufotokozedwa mwachidule: koma ena sanadziwitsidwe, chifukwa ndi ochepa, ngati alipo, zifukwa zotsutsa kwambiri zimene Yesu ananena kapena kutanthauza.

Tidzalipidwa pa Zochita Zathu - Zabwino kapena Zoipa

Fanizo la nkhosa ndi mbuzi (Mat 25:31-46) ndi Munthu Wachuma ndi Lazaro (Luke 16:19-31) zonse zimapanga mfundo yakuti tidzaweruzidwa, osati kokha chifukwa cha zabwino kapena zoipa zimene tachita, komanso chifukwa cha zabwino zomwe tidalephera kuchita. Timauzidwanso kuti tidzaweruzidwa m’njira imene timaweruza ena (Mat 7: 1-2) ndiponso ngati tichitira chifundo amene atichitira zoipa (Mat 6:14-15).

Ambiri amamasulira izi kukhala kutanthauza kuti Mulungu ali ndi njira ina yolinganiza zochita zathu zoipa ndi zabwino zomwe tachita; choncho, ngati ntchito zathu zabwino ziposa zoipa zathu tidzalowetsedwa kumwamba. Ambiri a ife timadziona kuti ndife ‘anthu aulemu,’ — ‘nthawi zambiri’ — ndipo panthaŵi imodzimodziyo timaona Yesu kukhala wachikondi ndi woleza mtima ndi anthu amene achita zinthu zoipa kwambiri kuposa ife. Kotero ife timakonda kuganiza kuti, ngati Mulungu alipo, tiyenera kutsika mopepuka.

Mulingo Ukuwoneka Wapamwamba Mosatheka

Koma pali vuto. Taziwona kale zimenezo, pamene Yesu akusonyeza chifundo chodabwitsa kwa ochimwa, ndi kunyalanyaza malamulo ndi malamulo potengera maonekedwe akunja, amawuka modabwitsa, m'malo motsitsa, miyezo ya makhalidwe abwino imene timafunika kuchita. Amatsindika zimenezi ponena kuti, ‘pokhapokha chilungamo chanu kuposa cha alembi ndi Afarisi, palibe njira mudzalowa mu Ufumu wa Kumwamba” (Mat 5:20). Iye amapitanso patali n’kuuza otsatira ake kuti akufuna, ‘Khalani angwiro‘ (Mat 5:48).

Ambiri ‘Adzawonongedwa’?

“Lowani pachipata chopapatiza; pakuti chipata chiri chachikuru, ndi njira yakumuka nayo kukuonongeka iri yotakata, Ndipo ambiri amene akulowa ndi icho. Chipata ndi chopapatiza bwanji!, ndipo njira yakumuka nayo kumoyo yochepetsetsa! Ochepa ndi amene akuchipeza.” (Mat 7:13-14)

Ichi ndi chododometsa chenicheni! Tikufuna kufuula, “Ayi! Ayi ndithu!” Koma izi si mawu osadziwika bwino, anatsekeredwa mu ndemanga mwamwayi. Ndi gawo lachidule chachidule cha Yesu chodziwika komanso chotamandidwa kwambiri’ kuphunzitsa; ‘Ulaliki wa pa Phiri.’ Komanso sichipezeka mu Uthenga Wabwino wa Mateyu; chidule chachidule, ‘Yesetsani kulowa ndi khomo lopapatiza, kwa ambiri, ndikukuuzani, adzafuna kulowa, ndipo sadzatha,’ imapezekanso mu Luke 13:24. Nanga liwu limeneli limatanthauza chiyani ‘chiwonongeko’ kutanthauza? Amachokera ku liwu Lachigriki, 'wononga'; kutanthaza ‘thetsani mwa chiwonongeko.’ Ndilonso lomwe linagwiritsidwa ntchito kufotokoza tsogolo la Yudasi Isikarioti, opanduka, anthu osaopa Mulungu ndi oipa onse pamodzi ndi chilombo chochokera ku phompho la m’buku la Chivumbulutso. Kodi ili ndi tanthauzo locheperako? Osati kwenikweni. Kuchokera 20 zochitika mu NT zilipo zokha 2 njira zina zotheka: mu Mat 26:8 and Mark 14:4 oonerera odabwa anagwiritsira ntchito liwu limeneli kufotokoza ‘zinyalala’ za nsupa ya mtengo wake wapatali ya mafuta onunkhira bwino imene inathyoledwa ndi kutsanuliridwa pa Yesu’ mutu. Kodi izi zitha kusiya chiyembekezo kuti mwina, ngakhale ‘kuwononga’ wa moyo wa munthu, chinthu chabwino akhoza kupulumutsidwa; kapena zidzatero, ngati mafuta onunkhira, pomaliza kuzirala?

Kodi pali zopinga zina m'mawu awa? Mwina. Pali maumboni angapo a OT (e.g. Isa 10:20-21) kusonyeza kuti ndi ‘otsalira’ a Israyeli adzapulumutsidwa. Kodi angakhale Yesu ameneyo’ kufotokoza kwa ‘ambiri’ ndi ‘zochepa’ likunenedwa makamaka kwa omvera ake Achiyuda panthaŵiyo m’mbiri? Izi zitha kukhala zoona pakanthawi kochepa: koma osati kwa nthawi yayitali, monga pali malemba ambiri akulonjeza kuti kubalalitsidwa kwa Israeli potsirizira pake kudzatsatiridwa ndi kulapa kwa dziko lonse ndi kubwezeretsedwa..¹ Akhristu ambiri akuyembekezera mwachidwi kukolola komaliza padziko lonse lapansi Yesu asanabwere; ndi, popeza chiŵerengero cha anthu padziko lapansi pano chikuposa chiŵerengero cha mibadwo yapitayi, mwina sizingathebe ndi kupulumutsidwa kochulukirapo kuposa kuwonongedwa? Mwina: koma izi ziyenera kuwonedwa ngati zongopeka, pokumbukira tanthauzo lodziwikiratu la ndimeyi.

Koma pali njira inanso yofunika kwambiri: Yesu’ mawu enieni amafanana: ‘ambiri ndi amene lowetsani mwa [njira kuti amatsogolera ku chiwonongeko]’ ndipo ‘Ochepa ndi amene kupeza [njira kuti amatsogolera ku moyo].’ Kodi Mulungu sangalowererepo ndikuwakwatula otayika kunjira yopita kuchionongeko ndi kuwaika panjira ya kumoyo? Fananizani izi ndi Mat 19:24-26 ndi kuwerenga moganizira mu nkhani yonse Mat 7:1-14: koma kumbukirani kuti, ngati uyu ndi Yesu’ tanthauzo lenileni, bwanji sakunena choncho?

Koma Onse Akuyitanidwa

Zinthu zonse zinaperekedwa kwa Ine ndi Atate wanga. Palibe amene akudziwa Mwana, kupatula Atate; ndipo palibe amene adziwa Atate, kupatula Mwana, ndi iye amene Mwana afuna kumuululira Iye. Bwera kwa ine, nonse amene mukugwira ntchito ndi othodwa, ndipo ndidzakupumulitsani inu. Senzani goli langa, ndipo phunzirani kwa Ine, pakuti ndine wofatsa ndi wodzichepetsa mtima; ndipo mudzapeza mpumulo wa miyoyo yanu. Pakuti goli langa ndi lofewa, ndipo katundu wanga ndi wopepuka. (Mat 11:27-30)

Onse amene Atate andipatsa Ine adzadza kwa Ine. Iye wakudza kwa Ine sindidzamtaya konse kunja. (John 6:37)

Yesu akulankhula mawu awa ngati kuitana anthu onse ndi, malinga ndi ziyeneretso zosavuta kwambiri, imapereka chitsimikizo chamtheradi. Amene akubwerawo ayenera kukhala odziwadi zosowa zawo ndipo ayenera kubwera kwa Yesu. Zindikirani kufanana ndi Makhalidwe Abwino (Mat 5:3-6).

Ambiri Anaitanidwa, Koma Osankhidwa Ochepa

Poyamba Yesu anagwiritsa ntchito mawu amenewa pofotokoza kuthamangitsidwa kwa munthu wophwanya zipata, mwachiwonekere atamva za chiitano chaulere cha mfumu kuphwando laukwati, amazembera popanda kuvomera mwambo wa mwambo wa chovala chaphwando (Mat 22:14). Koma limapezekanso m’malembo apamanja ambiri akale polongosola mchitidwe wa ola lomaliza la kukoma mtima kwakukulu kwa gulu la antchito opanda ntchito. (Mat 20:13-16).² Zonsezi zikuwoneka ngati njira yotsindikitsira kuti Mbuye amapereka kuvomereza kwake ngati mphatso yomwe sanaipeze.. Zikutanthauza kuti pali ambiri amene amadziletsa okha mwa kukana kuvomereza mfundo imeneyi. (Taonani mmene wopha zipata ankafunira kukhala paphwandopo: koma anali kupeŵa mfumu; ndipo anchito ansanje amauzidwa, ‘Tenga malipiro ako uzipita.’)

Yesu Ndiye Njira Yekhayo

Kutsatira zokambirana zake ndi wolamulira wachinyamata wolemera (Mat 19:16-27), Yesu ananena kuti pamafunika chozizwitsa kuti munthu wolemera alowe mu ufumu wa Mulungu. Koma, m’nkhaniyo akumuuza mmene angakhalire wangwiro: '… bwerani, Nditsateni’ (Mat 19:21).

Koma Yesu sanangonena kuti akhoza kutero chiwonetsero njirayo; Akudzinenera kukhala njira - ndi kokha njira.

Yesu anati kwa [Thomas], “Ine ndine njira, chowonadi, ndi moyo. Palibe amene amafika kwa Atate, kupatula kupyolera mwa ine.” (Joh 14:6)!

Izi zimafuna kukhulupirika ndi mtima umodzi kwa Yesu (Mat 5:12; 10:37-39; Mark 8:38; Luke 12:8-9; John 1:12-13; 3:18) ndi kuzindikirika kosalekeza ndi mtanda (Mark 10:21; Mat 10:38; 16:24; Luke 9:23; 14:27; John 3:14-15). Taonani mmene uthenga wabwino uliwonse umatsindika mfundo zimenezi.

Bwanji za Amene Sanamvepo?

Yesu anatchula nkhani imeneyi mosalunjika m’fanizo lake la Mfarisi ndi wokhometsa msonkho.

“Amuna awiri adapita kukapemphera kukapemphera; m'modzi anali Mfarisi, ndipo winayo anali wamsonkho. Mfarisiyo anayima ndipo anapemphera kwa iye monga chonchi: 'Mulungu, Ndikukuthokozani, kuti sindili ngati amuna ena onse, ogwidwa, wosalungama, achigololo, kapena monga wokhometsa msonkhoyu. Ndimakonda kawiri pa sabata. Ndimapereka chakhumi cha zonse zomwe ndimapeza.’ Koma wamsonkho, kuyimirira kutali, sakanakhoza kukweza maso ake kumwamba, koma kumenya chifuwa chake, kunena, 'Mulungu, Chitani Zachifundo kwa ine, wochimwa!’ ndikukuuzani, Mwamuna uyu adapita kunyumba kwake atalungamitsidwa chifukwa cha enawo; chifukwa aliyense amene amadzikuza yekha adzachepetsedwa, Koma iye amene amadzichepetsa yekha adzakwezedwa.” (Luk 18:10-14)

Onani kuti Yesu sanadzitchule yekha; komabe amatiuza kuti wamsonkho ‘analungamitsidwa’ (osalakwa kapena olungama) mwa kuchonderera kwake kochokera pansi pa mtima kwa Mulungu, kuvomereza kuti palibe china koma chifundo cha Mulungu chingam’pulumutse. Mosiyana ndi Mfarisi, ngakhale kudziwa kwake kopambana, zochita zosonyeza kudzipereka ndi kuyamikira, sanapeze chikhululukiro chifukwa chakuti iye analingalira kuti anayenera kutero chifukwa cha ‘ubwino wake’ waukulu.’

Tchimo Losakhululukidwa

Chifukwa chake ndikuuzani, uchimo uli wonse ndi mwano uliwonse zidzakhululukidwa kwa anthu, koma mwano wochitira Mzimu Woyera sadzakhululukidwa anthu. Iye amene anenera Mwana wa munthu zoipa, adzakhululukidwa kwa iye; koma amene anenera Mzimu Woyera zoipa, sadzakhululukidwa kwa iye, ngakhale mu m'badwo uno, kapena m’chimene chili nkudza. (Mat 12:31-32)

Yesu anapereka chenjezo lofananalo mu Mat 12:22-32; Mark 3:22-29 ndi Luke 12:10. Awiri oyambawo ali m’nkhani ya kukambirana kotsatira alembi’ ndi lingaliro la Mfarisi lakuti Yesu anali kugwiritsira ntchito mphamvu ya ziŵanda kutulutsa ziwanda. Yesu sakunena momveka bwino kuti iwo anali atachitira kale mwano Mzimu Woyera ponena izi: koma akuwachenjeza momveka bwino kuti, potengera ntchito ya Mzimu ku cholinga choyipa, akubwera moopsa kuti achite zimenezo. Izi zikukambidwa mwatsatanetsatane mu Zowonjezera D.

Kuvomereza ndi Kutsanzira Oopa Mulungu

Iye amene alandira mneneri pa dzina la mneneri adzalandira mphotho ya mneneri. Iye amene alandira munthu wolungama pa dzina la munthu wolungama adzalandira mphotho ya munthu wolungama. Aliyense amene amwetsa mmodzi wa ang’ono awa chikho cha madzi ozizira m’dzina la wophunzira, Indetu ndinena kwa inu kuti sadzataya mphotho yake.” (Mat 10:41-42)

Mchitidwe wosangomva chabe koma kutsanzira mokangalika moyo wa amuna oopa Mulungu unali phata la kumvetsetsa kwa arabi ponena za kukhala wophunzira m’nthaŵi zino.. Ndizo zimene ophunzira ake enieni a Yesu anali kuchita pamene anali kulalikira ndi kuchiritsa ‘m’dzina la Yesu.’ Koma, zachisoni, kwenikweni alembi ndi Afarisi anali kuchita zosiyana kwenikweni (“amati, ndipo musatero" – Mat 23:2-3). Pano, komabe, Yesu akuganiza za munthu amene sangovomereza choonadi ndi kuongoka kwa mmodzi wa atumiki a Mulungu: koma kusonyeza kuti akufuna kutengera chitsanzo chawo ndipo amafuna kuti anthuwo atamandidwe chifukwa cha zimene anachita. Yesu anayamikira kwambiri kuyankha koteroko ndipo ananena kuti wotsatira adzalandira mphoto ya amene akutsatira.

Koma izi zikusiya funso lopanda yankho: ngati ntchito zabwino zili zosakwanira kupulumutsa munthu kumoto, munthu wosapulumutsidwa akhoza kulipidwa m'moyo uno? Ndi mtundu wina wa kubwezera kotheka ngakhale pambuyo pa imfa?

Ganizirani izi:

“Kapena pangani mtengowo kukhala wabwino, ndi zipatso zake zabwino, kapena kupangitsa mtengowo kukhala wovunda, ndi zipatso zake zovunda; pakuti mtengo udziwika ndi zipatso zake. Obadwa inu a njoka, mungathe bwanji, kukhala woyipa, nenani zabwino? Pakuti mwa kuchuluka kwa mtima, pakamwa pamalankhula. Munthu wabwino amatulutsa zabwino m'chuma chake chabwino, ndipo munthu woipa atulutsa zoipa m’chuma chake choipa. (Mat 12:33-35)

Chikhulupiriro cha Yesu’ mawu akuwoneka kuti, pomaliza, palibe 'gawo loyipa - gawo labwino’ gawo. Chilichonse chotuluka mu mtima wolamulidwa ndi zoipa chidzakhalanso choipa, ziribe kanthu momwe zingawonekere zabwino. Payenera kukhala kusankha pakati pa chimodzi kapena chimzake.

Kutembenuka Kotheka Ngakhale Pakhomo la Imfa

M’modzi wa achifwamba amene anapachikidwa anam’nyoza, kunena, “Ngati ndinu Khristu, dzipulumutse wekha ndi ife!” Koma winayo anayankha, namdzudzula iye adati, “Osawopa ngakhale Mulungu, powona kuti muli pansi pa chilango chomwecho? Ndipo ife ndithudi mwachilungamo, pakuti tilandira mphotho yoyenera pa zochita zathu, koma munthu uyu sanalakwa.” Iye adati kwa Yesu, “Ambuye, mundikumbukire pamene mulowa mu Ufumu wanu.” Yesu adanena kwa iye, “Ndithudi ndikukuuzani, lero udzakhala ndi ine m’Paradaiso.” (Luk 23:39-43)

Pakuwoneka kukayikira pang'ono kuchokera ku chivomerezo cha chigawenga chomwe, mpaka nthawi ino pa mtanda, akadaweruzidwa. Koma pankhani ya zokambiranazi sitikanadziwa ayi. Koma apa ife tikupeza kuti chinachake cha Yesu’ Mawu ndi chitsanzo zalowa mu mtima mwa munthuyo ndipo zachititsa kuti akhale ndi mtima wofuna kutsatira Yesu. Mwina nthawi zina ankachitira ena chifundo: mwina ayi. Koma tsopano, pa nsonga ya imfa, amazindikira kuti Yesu ndi ndani—kuti Iye yekha ndi wokhoza kupereka chikhululukiro chimene amachifuna kwambiri—ndipo akuima kumbali ya Yesu., kudziponya yekha pa chifundo Chake. Ndipo Yesu anamulandira! Osati chifukwa ankamuyenerera: koma chifukwa cha Yesu’ chikondi chinalipo kuti chikwaniritse chosowa chake.

Nthawi zambiri ndimaganizira za chochitika ichi; kuti tisataye chiyembekezo cha chipulumutso cha anthu, ngakhale ataumitsa bwanji mu uchimo ndi kupandukira Mulungu zingawonekere kwa ife. Amayi a chigawengacho angakhale atamwalira adakali ndi chisoni cha imfa ya mwana wawo wamwamuna. Ndi chisangalalo chodabwitsa chotani nanga kukumana nayenso m’Paradaiso!

Koma palinso chenjezo apa. Panali zigawenga ziwiri, mofanana wofuna chifundo. Kodi winayo anali ataganizirapo zoti angathe kusintha njira zake asanamwalire? Anali atataya chiyani tsopano? Koma, mu nthawi zowopsya izo sizinali zophweka. Pamene adapachikika pamenepo, akugudubuzika ndi zowawa ndi mantha, malingaliro onse a kulapa kowona mtima analemedwa ndi chikhumbo chachikulu cha kuthaŵa; ndipo chiyembekezo chidadzazidwa ndi kusuliza - komanso ngakhale mkwiyo - pa Yesu’ kulephera kuchitapo kanthu. Chidziŵitso cha imfa yoyandikira chimakhala ndi chizoloŵezi chovumbula zozama za mitima yathu: koma zimasiya mwayi wochepa woti awunikenso.

Yesu akupita

Tiana, Ndikhala ndi inu kanthawi pang'ono. Mudzandifunafuna, ndimo monga ndinanena kwa Ayuda, ‘Kumene ndikupita, simungathe kubwera,’ kotero tsopano ndikukuuzani. … Simoni Petro ananena kwa iye, “Ambuye, mukupita kuti?” Yesu anayankha, “Kumene ndikupita, simungathe kutsatira tsopano, koma mudzawatsata pambuyo pake.” (John 13:33,36)

Chiyembekezo chamwambo cha Ayuda cha Mesiya chinali chimenecho, akadzabwera nthawi yomweyo anayamba kulamulira Isiraeli ndi kukakamiza mitundu ina yonse kuti igonjere kwa Iye (ndi Ayuda) ulamuliro. Koma dongosolo la Mulungu linali lovuta kwambiri, kuphatikizapo mtanda, Yesu’ kuuka, kubadwa mwatsopano, Yesu’ kubwerera kumwamba, kutsanulidwa kwa Mzimu Woyera, kupangidwa kwa mpingo, kugwetsedwa kwakanthawi ndi kubwezeretsedwa kwa Israeli ndi kuwuka ndi kugonjetsedwa kwa AntiChrist. Iyenera kufalikira kwa nthawi yayitali kwambiri; kotero kuti sitinaone kukwaniritsidwa kwake komaliza.

Fanizo la mina likuyamba kuzindikiritsa ophunzira kuzindikira kuti udzakhala thayo lawo kukonzekeretsa dziko kulandiranso Yesu monga Mfumu..

Pamene adamva zinthu izi, Iye adapitirira nanena fanizo, chifukwa anali pafupi ndi Yerusalemu, ndipo adayesa kuti Ufumu wa Mulungu udzabvumbulutsidwa pomwepo. Chifukwa chake adanena, “Munthu wina wolemekezeka anapita ku dziko lakutali kuti akalandire ufumu, ndi kubwerera. Anaitana atumiki ake khumi, nawapatsa makobiri khumi, nawauza, ‘Chitani malonda mpaka ndibwere.’ Koma nzika zake zinkamuda, natumiza nthumwi pambuyo pake, kunena, ‘Sitikufuna kuti munthu ameneyu akhale mfumu yathu.’” (Luk 19:11-14)

Panthaŵi imeneyi Yesu akudumpha zochitika zonse zoloŵererapo kukambitsirana zimene zidzachitike pakubweranso kwa Mfumuyo. Tidzachitanso chimodzimodzi; kamodzi tangolingalira mwachidule zinthu zina zochepa zomwe zimakhudza mwachindunji nkhani ya chilango ndi mphotho.

Padzakhala chizunzo

Yesu ananena momveka bwino kuti otsatira ake adzakhala mozunguliridwa ndi adani ake ndipo adzakakamizika kukana Yesu kapena kusiya chiphunzitso chake..

“Odala inu pamene anthu akunyoza inu, kuzunza inu, ndikunamizirani zoipa zamtundu uliwonse, chifukwa cha ine. Kondwerani, ndipo kondwerani ndithu, pakuti mphotho yanu ndi yaikulu Kumwamba. Pakuti umu ndi mmene anazunza aneneri amene anakhalapo inu musanabadwe. (Mat 5:11-12)

Amene amagonjera ku chitsenderezo chimenechi amadziika pangozi kuti adziweruze okha; ngakhale, monga momwe Petro anakana, kulephera koteroko sikuli kwenikweni kosakhoza kuwomboledwa (Luke 22:31-34).

Pakuti amene adzachita manyazi chifukwa cha Ine, ndi cha mawu anga, mu mbadwo uno wachigololo ndi wochimwa, Mwana wa Munthu adzachitanso manyazi chifukwa cha iye, pamene adzafika mu ulemerero wa Atate wake pamodzi ndi angelo oyera.” (Mar 8:38)

Yesu adzabweranso monga Mfumu

Kufunsidwa ndi Afarisi kuti Ufumu wa Mulungu udzabwera liti, Iye adawayankha, “Ufumu wa Mulungu subwera ndi mawonekedwe; ngakhalenso sadzanena, ‘Taonani, Pano!’ kapena, ‘Taonani, Apo!’ pakuti taonani, Ufumu wa Mulungu uli mwa inu.” Iye adanena kwa ophunzira, “Masiku adzafika, pamene mudzalakalaka kuona limodzi la masiku a Mwana wa munthu, ndipo simudzachiwona. Adzakuuzani, ‘Taonani, Pano!’ kapena ‘Onani, Apo!’ Osachoka, kapena kuwatsata, pakuti ngati mphezi, pamene ikuthwanima kuchokera ku mbali ina ya pansi pa thambo, kuwala ku mbali ina pansi pa thambo; kotero adzakhala Mwana wa munthu m'tsiku lake. Koma choyamba, ayenera kumva zowawa zambiri, ndi kukanidwa ndi mbadwo uno.” (Luk 17:20-25)

Kwa zaka mazana ambiri anthu ayesa kukhazikitsa maufumu a padziko lapansi ndi utsogoleri wozikidwa pa kumvetsetsa kwawo za mmene ufumu wa Mulungu uyenera kukhalira.. Ena akhala opindulitsa ndiponso opambana kuposa ena: koma onse adalephera, mwanjira imodzi kapena ina. Koma Yesu akutiuza kuti tisasokoneze zimenezi ndi Ufumu weniweni wa Mulungu; zomwe pa nthawi ino kulibe kunja: koma m’mitima ya iwo akumkonda.³ Iye akutitsimikizira kuti akadzabweranso kudzalamulira dziko lapansi, kudza kwake kudzakhala kosasoweka konse.

Kufunika Kokhala Okonzeka

Koma Yesu akutichenjezanso kuti nthawi ya kubwera kwake idzakhala yadzidzidzi komanso yosayembekezereka; chotero tiyenera kukhala m’chiyembekezo chamuyaya ndi kuchita moyenerera.

Koma za tsikulo kapena ora ilo palibe amene akudziwa, ngakhale angelo akumwamba, kapena Mwana, koma Atate yekha (Mar 13:32; Mat 24:36).

Monga mmene zinalili m’masiku a Nowa, kotero kudzakhalanso masiku a Mwana wa munthu. Iwo anadya, iwo anamwa, anakwatirana, anakwatiwa, mpaka tsiku limene Nowa adalowa m’chombo, ndipo chigumula chinadza, ndipo anawaononga onse. Momwemonso, monga momwe zinakhalira masiku a Loti: iwo anadya, iwo anamwa, iwo anagula, iwo anagulitsa, iwo anabzala, iwo anamanga; koma tsiku limene Loti anatuluka mu Sodomu, idabvumbitsa moto ndi sulufule zochokera kumwamba, ndipo anawaononga onse. Zidzakhala momwemonso tsiku limene Mwana wa munthu adzaonekere. Mu tsiku limenelo, iye amene adzakhala pamwamba pa denga, ndi katundu wake m'nyumba, asatsike kukawatenga. Momwemonso iye amene ali m’munda asabwerere m’mbuyo. Kumbukirani mkazi wa Loti! Iye amene afuna kupulumutsa moyo wake autaya;, koma iye amene ataya moyo wake ausunga. ndikukuuzani, usiku umenewo adzakhala anthu awiri pabedi limodzi. Mmodzi adzatengedwa*, ndipo winayo adzasiyidwa*. Padzakhala awiri akupera tirigu pamodzi. Mmodzi adzatengedwa, ndipo winayo adzasiyidwa.” Awiri adzakhala mmunda: amene anatengedwa, ndi winayo adachoka.” (Luke 17:26-36 & Mat 24:37-41)

*Mawu achigiriki amene anawamasulira kuti ‘kutengedwa’ amatanthauza ‘kulandira pafupi, ndiye, cheza ndi iwe wekha': pamene ‘anasiya’ amatanthauza ‘kutumiza.’ Akhristu ena amatanthauzira izi ngati kuchotsedwa kwadzidzidzi kwa Yesu’ otsatira a dziko lapansi asanabwere Antikristu (nthawi zambiri amatchedwa 'Kukwatulidwa Kwachinsinsi'), pamene ena amalingalira kuti akunena za zochitika pamene Yesu potsirizira pake adzabwera kudzawononga Wokana Kristu ndi kukhazikitsa ulamuliro Wake. Palinso matanthauzidwe enanso: koma, atafotokoza momveka bwino kuti kusankha kumeneku kudzakhala kwadzidzidzi komanso kofunikira kwambiri, kupangitsa kulekana ngakhale abwenzi apamtima, Yesu sanafotokoze mowonjezereka za nkhaniyi.

Monga Wakuba Usiku

Chotero dikirani, pakuti simudziwa nthawi yakudza Mbuye wanu. Koma dziwani izi, kuti ngati mwini nyumba akanadziwa mu ulonda wa usiku umene mbala ikudza, akadayang'ana, ndipo sakadalola kuti nyumba yake ithyoledwe. Chifukwa chake khalani okonzeka, chifukwa mu ola limene simukuliyembekezera, Mwana wa Munthu adzabwera. (Mat 24:43-44. Onaninso Mark 13:32-37.)

Kodi izi zikutanthauza kuti mwininyumba sangagone konse? Inde sichoncho! Koma akanayembekezera, monga gawo lokhazikika la ntchito zake, kukhala ndi udindo wowonetsetsa kuti zipata zonse zolowera mnyumbayo zikutetezedwa bwino kapena kupezekapo, ndi kudzipereka yekha ngati pakufunika kutero.

Mafuta mu Nyali

Chitsanzo china chochititsa chidwi kwambiri ndi fanizo la anamwali khumi:

“Pamenepo Ufumu wa Kumwamba udzakhala ngati anamwali khumi, amene anatenga nyali zao, natuluka kukakomana ndi mkwati. Asanu a iwo anali opusa, ndipo asanu anali anzeru. Iwo amene anali opusa, pamene iwo anatenga nyali zawo, sanatenge mafuta pamodzi nawo, koma ochenjera anatenga mafuta m’zotengera zao, pamodzi ndi nyali zao. Tsopano pamene mkwati anachedwa, iwo onse anagona nagona. Koma pakati pausiku panali kulira, ‘Taonani! Mkwati akubwera! Tuluka kuti ukakumane naye!’ Pamenepo anamwali onsewo anauka, nakonza nyali zawo. Opusa adati kwa ochenjera, ‘Tipatseniko ena mwa mafuta anu, pakuti nyali zathu zikuzima.’ Koma anzeru anayankha, kunena, ‘Bwanji ngati sikukwanira kwa ife ndi inu? Inu mumapita makamaka kwa iwo ogulitsa, mudzigulire nokha.’ Pamene iwo anapita kukagula, mkwati anabwera, ndipo wokonzekawo adalowa naye pamodzi m’phwando la ukwati, ndipo chitseko chidatsekedwa. Pambuyo pake anamwali enanso anadza, kunena, ‘Ambuye, Ambuye, tsegulani kwa ife.’ Koma iye anayankha, ‘Ndithu ndikukuuzani, sindikukudziwani.’ Chotero dikirani, pakuti simudziwa tsiku, kapena nthawi yakudza Mwana wa munthu. (Mat 25:1-13)

Poyamba, fanizo ili likhoza kumveka lovuta kwambiri. Mkwatibwi anali mochedwa. Kodi anamwaliwo amayenera kukhala maso nthawi yayitali bwanji kapena kupeza zinthu zatsopano usiku kwambiri? Iwo sanali. Onse anatopa ndi kudikira ndipo anagona; panalibe cholakwika ndi zimenezo. Koma asanu a iwo, podziŵa kuti kuchedwa koteroko kunali koyenera kuyembekezeredwa pausiku waukwati, ndi kuti ntchito yawo yaikulu inali kupereka kuunikira pamene mkwati anabwera, anaonetsetsa kuti ali nazo zofunikira kale kukhala pansi kugona.

Zitsanzo zonsezi zikusonyeza kuti chinthu chofunika kwambiri kwa mtumiki woona aliyense wa Yesu ndicho kukhala wofunitsitsa kumutumikira., ziribe kanthu momwe izi zingakhalire zosayembekezereka kapena zovuta. ngati ayi, tifunika kufufuza mitima yathu mwamsanga kuti tione pamene kukhulupirika kwathu kwagona.

Iye adzabwerera monga Woweruza

Minas ndi Matalente

Kubwereranso ku fanizo la ndalama, Yesu akutiuza zimene zidzachitike mfumuyo ikadzabweranso kudzalamulira:

“Zinachitika pamene iye anabwerera kachiwiri, atalandira ufumu, kuti analamulira akapolo awa, amene adapatsa ndalamazo, kuitanidwa kwa iye, kuti adziwe zomwe adapeza pochita malonda. Woyamba anadza pamaso pake, kunena, ‘Ambuye, ndalama yanu yapindula mamina khumi.’ “Iye adati kwa iye, 'Mwachita bwino, wantchito wabwino iwe! + Chifukwa munapezeka wokhulupirika pa zinthu zochepa, mudzakhala ndi ulamuliro pa midzi khumi.’ “Wachiwiri anabwera, kunena, ‘Ine wanu, Ambuye, wapanga ndalama zisanu.’ “Choncho anati kwa iye, ‘Ndipo iwe ukhale wolamulira mizinda isanu.’ Wina anabwera, kunena, ‘Ambuye, taonani, mina yanu, chimene ndinachisunga m’nsalu, pakuti ndidakuopani inu, chifukwa ndinu munthu wovuta. Mumatenga zomwe simunaziyike, ndi kukolola chimene simunafese.’ “Iye adati kwa iye, ‘Ndidzakuweruza zochokera m’kamwa mwako, kapolo woipa iwe! Munadziwa kuti ndine munthu wovuta, kutenga zomwe sindinaziyike, ndi kukolola chimene sindinafese. Ndiye bwanji sunasungitse ndalama zanga kubanki, ndi pa kudza kwanga, Ndikadapeza chiwongola dzanja pa izo?’ Iye adati kwa iwo omwe adayima pafupi, ‘Muchotsereni ndalamayo, ndipo mpatseni iye amene ali nazo ndalama khumi.’ “Iwo adati kwa iye, ‘Ambuye, ali ndi ndalama khumi!’ ‘Pakuti ndikuuzani izi kwa aliyense amene ali nazo, adzapatsidwa zambiri; koma kwa iye amene alibe, ngakhale chimene ali nacho chidzachotsedwa kwa iye. Koma bweretsani adani anga aja amene sanafune kuti ndikhale mfumu yawo pano, ndi kuwapha pamaso panga.’ ” (Luk 19:15-27)

Cholinga chachikulu cha fanizoli ndicho chiyembekezo cha mfumu chakuti atumiki ake adzakhala achipambano m’zochita zawo; ndipo cholinga chake ndi kuwapatsa mphotho powalola kusunga ndalama zonse ndi kuwakweza paudindo waukulu.. Koma pali zolemba ziwiri zowawa. Mmodzi ndi wantchito amene anabisa ndalamazo (zambiri za iye mu kamphindi) ndipo chinacho ndi tsogolo la amene adamukana ulamuliro wake. Kwa gulu lomalizali palibe kufunsa kwina kapena kunyengerera: kudzudzulidwa kofulumira ndi kotheratu.

Koma mkhalidwe wa wantchito wosabala umasoŵeka. Akudzudzulidwa mwamphamvu chifukwa cha ulesi wake ndi kulandidwa ndalama. Koma ndizo zonse? Panthawi ino, tiyenera kuona fanizo lina la matalente (Mat 25:14-30) — zimene Yesu ananena mlungu wake womaliza ku Yerusalemu, pamene ankafotokozanso za udindo wa ophunzira ake. Ntchitoyi ndi yofanana kwambiri, koma mtengo wa talente imodzi (chochepa choperekedwa kwa akapolo ali yense) ndi ena 60 ku 100 nthawi zambiri kuposa mina. Ndi gulu ili la akapolo si mayeso chabe. Ndalama zazikulu zili pachiwopsezo; ndipo mlingo weniweni wa udindo ndi wolingana ndi kuthekera kwawo komwe akuwaganizira kale, ndi okhoza kwambiri kulandira mpaka 10 nthawi zambiri ngati zazing'ono. Apanso tili ndi wantchito m’modzi amene amabisa talenteyo osachitapo kanthu: koma pamenepa kapolo samangodzudzulidwa ndi kulandidwa ndalama zake. Kenako mfumuyo inalamula, ‘Tayani kapolo wopanda pake ku mdima wakunja, kumene kudzakhala kulira ndi kukukuta mano’ (Mat 25:30).

Zomwe zikuchitika pano? Choyamba, m'pofunika kuzindikira kuti m'fanizo lililonse palibe umboni wosonyeza kuti wantchito akudzudzulidwa chifukwa chosachita bwino kuposa wina.; ngakhale chiwongola dzanja chochepa chopezeka mwa kuika ndalamazo pa depositi chikanakhala chovomerezeka. Komanso Yesu sanavutike n’kukambirana zimene zikanachitika ngati kapoloyo atataya ndalama chifukwa chakuba kapena ngongole. Koma n’zoonekeratu kuti mfumuyo inakwiyira atumiki amene sanayesepo kutsatira malangizo ake. Ngati wantchito anyalanyaza malangizo ndikupereka chidaliro cha mbuye wake, funso liyenera kufunsidwa, ‘Kodi iye alidi wantchito konse?’

Choncho, Pano, tikuyang'ana iwo amene amadzinenera kukhala okhulupirika kwa Yesu: koma amene khalidwe lawo lalephera kwambiri kufika pa mlingo woyembekezeredwa kwa iwo. Anthu otere adzaweruzidwa bwanji?? Umu ndi m’mene Yesu akufotokozera:

Ambuye anati, “Ndani ndiye mdindo wokhulupirika ndi wanzeru, amene mbuye wake adzamuyika woyang'anira banja lake, kuwapatsa gawo la cakudya cao pa nthawi yace? Wodala kapolo amene mbuye wake pakudza iye adzampeza alikuchita chotero. Indetu ndikuuzani, kuti adzamuika woyang’anira zonse ali nazo. Koma ngati mtumikiyo anena mu mtima mwake, ‘Mbuye wanga akuchedwa kubwera,’ nayamba kumenya akapolo ndi adzakazi, ndi kudya ndi kumwa, ndi kuledzera, pamenepo mbuye wa kapoloyo adzafika tsiku limene iye sakumuyembekezera, ndi ola limene iye salidziwa, ndipo adzamdula pakati, ndi kuika gawo lake pamodzi ndi osakhulupirika. Wantchito ameneyo, amene ankadziwa chifuniro cha mbuye wake, ndipo sanakonzekere, kapena kuchita zimene ankafuna, adzakwapulidwa mikwingwirima yambiri, koma amene sanadziwe, nachita zoyenera mikwapulo, adzakwapulidwa mikwingwirima yochepa. Kwa amene wapatsidwa zambiri, kwa iye kudzafunidwa zambiri; ndi amene adaikizidwa zambiri, zambiri za iye zidzafunsidwa.” (Luke 12:42-48)

Tsopano kumbukirani kuti awa ndi mafanizo, olinganizidwa kusonyeza mapulinsipulo amene chiweruzo cha Mulungu chidzazikidwapo. Izi sizikutanthauza kuti magulu a angelo onyamula zikwapu adzatumizidwa kuti akathane ndi olakwawo.: koma zikutanthauza kuti padzakhala kuŵerengera kwa amene khalidwe lawo lalephera kukwaniritsa muyezo woyembekezeredwa; ndi kuti chidzakhala chowawa; ndi mlingo wa kusautsika kolingana ndi cholakwiracho. Zikutanthauzanso kuti padzakhala ena amene zolakwa zawo zidzavumbulutsidwa kukhala zoipitsitsa kotero kuti, zenizeni, sanali atumiki enieni kapena ophunzira poyamba. Izi, ngakhale kuti ankadzinenera kuti ankakhulupirira Yesu, ndipo analoŵetsedwamo m’zozizwitsa zimene zinachitidwa m’dzina lake, adzakumana ndi tsoka lofanana ndi la amene amutsutsa poyera.

Osati aliyense amene anena kwa ine, ‘Ambuye, Ambuye,’ adzalowa mu Ufumu wa Kumwamba; koma wakuchitayo chifuniro cha Atate wanga wa Kumwamba. Ambiri adzandiuza ine tsiku limenelo, ‘Ambuye, Ambuye, sitinanenera mau m’dzina lanu, m’dzina lanu tulutsani ziwanda, ndipo m’dzina lanu ndichite zamphamvu zambiri?’ Ndiye ndiwauza, ‘Sindinakudziweni konse. Chokani kwa ine, inu akuchita kusayeruzika.’ (Mat 7:21-23)

“Koma pamene Mwana wa munthu adzadza mu ulemerero wake, ndi angelo onse oyera pamodzi naye, pamenepo adzakhala pa mpando wachifumu wa ulemerero wake. + Pamaso pake mitundu yonse ya anthu idzasonkhanitsidwa, ndipo Iye adzawalekanitsa iwo wina ndi mzake, monga mbusa alekanitsa nkhosa ndi mbuzi. Iye adzaika nkhosa kudzanja lake lamanja, koma mbuzi kulamanzere. … Pamenepo adzanenanso kwa iwo akudzanja lamanzere, ‘Chokani kwa ine, munatemberera, m’moto wosatha wokonzedwera mdierekezi ndi angelo ake; pakuti ndinali ndi njala, ndipo simunandipatse chakudya kuti ndidye; Ndinamva ludzu, ndipo simunandimwetsa Ine; Ndinali mlendo, ndipo simunandilandire; wamaliseche, ndipo simunandiveka; odwala, ndi m’ndende, ndipo simunandichezere.’ “Kenako nawonso adzayankha, kunena, ‘Ambuye, tidakuwona liti wanjala, kapena waludzu, kapena mlendo, kapena wamaliseche, kapena odwala, kapena m’ndende, ndipo sanathandize?’ “Kenako adzawayankha, kunena, ‘Ndithu ndikukuuzani, popeza simunachitira mmodzi wa ang’onong’ono awa, simunandichitire ine.’ Iwowa adzapita ku chilango chamuyaya, koma olungama ku moyo wosatha.” (Mat 25:31-33; 41-46)

Tsoka Loipa Kwambiri Kuposa Imfa

Taona kale tanthauzo la ‘muyaya,’ ndi ‘chilango’ mu gawo lakuti, ‘Mawu a Yesu;’ ; ndipo izi zikukambidwanso mu Zowonjezera A. Izi zimatisiya ife nazo 2 zifukwa zazikulu zokaikira tanthauzo lawo lodziwikiratu. Mwinanso

1. sitimakonda zotulukapo zake, kapena,
2. ndi m’lingaliro lotani limene lingawonongedwe ndi moto wosazimitsidwa wa Gehena (Kuwona Mt 25:41,46) kufotokozedwa kukhala kosatha?

koma, mwanjira zonse, tikayang'ana ngati Yesu amakokomeza za kuopsa kwa gehena tawona kuti anali kutsindika uthenga wake kuti gahena., kapena Gehena, anali malo opeŵedwa pa mtengo uliwonse. Tikambirana izi mowonjezera ‘‘Kuvuta Kumvetsetsa.

Kamodzi Wopulumutsidwa, Opulumutsidwa Nthawizonse?

Nkhani imodzi imene yayambitsa mikangano yambiri pakati pa Akristu ndi yakuti, kodi n’zotheka kuti munthu akhale ‘wobadwanso’ Mkristu ndipo kenako kugwa, mpaka kutaya chipulumutso chawo. Chiphunzitso ndi chitsanzo cha Yesu chimapereka umboni woonekeratu wa zinthu zitatu:

Choyamba, padzakhala anthu ochotsedwa kumwamba amene samangodziona ngati Akristu; koma anali otanganidwa muutumiki Wachikristu, mpaka kulosera, kutulutsa ziwanda ndi kuchita zozizwitsa mwa Yesu’ dzina. Mwina akanatipusitsa mosavuta, kapena iwo eni: koma osati Yesu. Iye anali asanawadziŵepo kapena kuwalingalirapo monga mabwenzi ake enieni kapena ophunzira mosasamala kanthu za chikhulupiriro chawo mwachiwonekere, ndi kudzipereka ku, iye.

Osati aliyense amene anena kwa ine, ‘Ambuye, Ambuye,’ adzalowa mu Ufumu wa Kumwamba; koma wakuchitayo chifuniro cha Atate wanga wa Kumwamba. Ambiri adzandiuza ine tsiku limenelo, ‘Ambuye, Ambuye, sitinanenera mau m’dzina lanu, m’dzina lanu tulutsani ziwanda, ndipo m’dzina lanu ndichite zamphamvu zambiri?’ Ndiye ndiwauza, ‘Sindinakudziweni konse. Chokani kwa ine, inu akuchita kusayeruzika.’ (Mat 7:21-23)

Chitsanzo chodziwikiratu chingakhale Yudasi Isikarioti, Yesu’ wopereka. (Kuwona John 2:23-25; 6:64,70; 13:18; 17:12.)

Wachiwiri, kukhala wophunzira sikupangitsa munthu kukhala wosakhulupirira kapena khalidwe loipa.⁴ Palibe kusowa kwa zitsanzo kuchokera pakati pa ena 11 ophunzira! (Kuwona Mark 9:33-34; Mat 16:21-23: Mat 20:20-24; Luke 9:51-56; Mat 26:31-45,51-56,69-75. ndipo, kuopera kuti wina anganene kuti iwo sanabadwe mwatsopano kufikira pambuyo pa Yesu’ kuuka, pali zitsanzo zina zopezeka pambuyo pake mu Chipangano Chatsopano.⁵)

koma, chachitatu ndi chotsiriza, pali mfundo yotsimikizika pamene Yesu amazindikira kuti munthu wadutsa malire pakati pa kukhala wake ndi kusakhala wake..

Nkhosa zanga zimamva mawu anga, ndipo ine ndikuwadziwa iwo, ndipo anditsata Ine. Ine ndipereka moyo wosatha kwa iwo. Iwo sadzawonongeka konse, ndipo palibe munthu adzazikwatula m’dzanja langa.” (John 10:27-28)

Onse amene Atate andipatsa Ine adzadza kwa Ine. Iye wakudza kwa Ine sindidzamtaya konse kunja. Pakuti ndatsika kuchokera kumwamba, osati kuchita chifuniro changa, koma chifuniro cha Iye wondituma Ine. Ichi ndi chifuniro cha Atate amene anandituma Ine, kuti pa zonse adandipatsa ine ndisataye kanthu, koma ayenera kumuukitsa iye tsiku lomaliza. (John 6:37-39)

Indetu, ndikuuzani, iye wakumva mau anga, ndipo akhulupirira Iye wondituma Ine, ali nawo moyo wosatha, ndipo sichibwera ku chiweruzo, koma wadutsa kuchokera mu imfa kupita ku moyo.(John 5:24)

Pamene ankayankhula zinthu izi, ambiri adakhulupirira Iye. Pamenepo Yesu adanena kwa Ayuda aja adakhulupirira Iye, “Ngati mukhala m'mawu anga, pamenepo muli akuphunzira anga ndithu. Mudzadziwa chowonadi, ndipo chowonadi chidzakumasulani. (John 8:30-32)

Kodi pali kusiyana kotani pakati pa Mkhristu woona ndi wabodza?

Funso limene liyenera kutikhudza kwambiri ndi lakuti, ndidziwa bwanji ngati Ndine Mkhristu weniweni?

Kusintha kwakukulu kumabwera munthu akamva uthenga wa Yesu, amazindikira kuti ichi ndi chowonadi cha Mulungu ndikudzipereka okha kutsata Yesu ngati Mbuye ndi Mbuye wawo kwa moyo wawo wonse wachilengedwe - kenako kwamuyaya., kumwamba. Izi zikuphatikizapo kudzipereka kuyamba kusintha kulikonse kumene kungafunike kuti moyo wa munthuyo ugwirizane ndi Yesu.’ malamulo ndi chitsanzo. Monga Yesu ananena:

“Mukundiyimbiranji?, ‘Ambuye, Ambuye,’ ndipo musachite zomwe ndinena? (Luke 6:46)

Dziwani kuti ichi ndi chiyambi chabe. Sitikhala angwiro mwamsanga ndipo nthaŵi zambiri timakhala ndi chidziŵitso chochepa cha zimene kutsatira Yesu kungafunikire m’kupita kwa nthaŵi. Padzakhala nthawi zambiri pamene mukukaikira kukhoza kwanu kuzindikira ndi kumvera Yesu’ kutsogolera: koma amaona kuwona mtima kwa mitima yathu ndipo akhoza kudaliridwa kutipatsa mphamvu zambiri, kutsimikiza ndi kumvetsetsa pamene kudzipereka kozama kumafunika. Choncho musadziweruze nokha ndi momwe zilili bwino, wamphamvu kapena wokhoza mukumva. Monga St Paul akufotokozera:

Pakuti mukuwona kuyitana kwanu, abale, kuti si ambiri ali anzeru monga mwa thupi, si ambiri amphamvu, ndipo si ambiri olemekezeka; koma Mulungu anasankha zopusa za dziko lapansi, kuti akachititse manyazi anzeru. Mulungu anasankha zofooka za dziko lapansi, kuti akachititse manyazi zinthu zolimba; ndipo Mulungu anasankha zinthu zonyozeka za m’dziko, ndi zinthu zonyozeka, ndi zinthu zomwe palibe, kuti akaononge zinthu zimene zilipo: kuti munthu asadzitamandire pamaso pa Mulungu. Koma za iye, inu muli mwa Khristu Yesu, amene adapangidwa kwa ife nzeru yochokera kwa Mulungu, ndi chilungamo ndi chiyeretso, ndi chiwombolo: kuti, monga kwalembedwa, “Wodzitamandira, adzitamandire mwa Ambuye.” (1 Corinthians 1:26-31[\x])

Zikafika poyang'ana ena, sitingakhale otsimikiza ngakhale. Kupanda kudzipereka kwa munthu ndi kumvera Yesu kumasonyeza kuti si Mkristu: koma maonekedwe akunja a kukhulupirika angakhalenso achinyengo.

“Chenjerani ndi aneneri onyenga, amene adza kwa inu ndi zobvala zankhosa, koma m’kati mwawo muli mimbulu yolusa. Ndi zipatso zawo mudzawazindikira. Kodi mumathyola mphesa paminga?, kapena nkhuyu za mitula? Ngakhale zili choncho, mtengo wabwino uli wonse upatsa zipatso zokoma;; koma mtengo wamphutsi upatsa zipatso zoipa. Mtengo wabwino sungathe kubala zipatso zoipa, kapena mtengo wamphutsi ungabala zipatso zabwino. Mtengo uliwonse wosabala zipatso zabwino umadulidwa, naponyedwa kumoto. Choncho, ndi zipatso zawo mudzawazindikira iwo. (Mateyu 7:15-20)

Chokhudza zipatso ndi chakuti zimatenga nthawi kuti zikule ndi kukhwima; kotero kuti maonekedwe oyambirira angakhale achinyengo. Yudasi anayenda mozungulira akuchita zozizwitsa pamodzi ndi atumwi ena khumi ndi awiri. Koma Yesu ankayang’ana mitima ya anthu ndipo ankadziwa zimene Yudasi angachite. Komabe, ankachitirabe Yudasi ulemu ndi ulemu mofanana ndi ena onse. Choncho, ngakhale pa mgonero womaliza pamene Yudasi anachoka pa ntchito yake yoopsa, palibe mmodzi wa ena - ngakhale Yohane - sanazindikire chimene iye anali pafupi kuchita (Jn 13:21-29). Mbali inayi, posakhalitsa, Yohane ayenera kuti anali ‘wophunzira wina’ amene analipo pamene Petro anakana Yesu (Jn 18:15-27). Yohane anali ndi chifukwa chabwino panthaŵiyo chokaikira kuona mtima kwa Petro: koma Yesu ankadziwa mosiyana (Lk 22:31-34).

Inu mundiyimbire ine, ‘Mphunzitsi’ ndi ‘Ambuye.’ Mukunena choncho molondola, pakuti nditero. Ngati ine ndiye, Ambuye ndi Mphunzitsi, mwasambitsa mapazi anu, inunso muyenera kusambitsana mapazi wina ndi mzake. Pakuti ndakupatsani inu chitsanzo, kuti inunso muchite monga Ine ndakuchitirani inu. Indetu, ndikuuzani, kapolo sali wamkulu ndi mbuye wake, ngakhalenso wotumidwa wamkulu ndi iye amene anamtuma. Ngati mukudziwa zinthu izi, odala inu ngati muzichita. Sindikunena za inu nonse. ndikudziwa amene ndawasankha. Koma kuti malembo akwaniritsidwe, ‘Iye wakudya mkate pamodzi nane wandikwezera chidendene chake.’ Kuyambira pano kupita mtsogolo, Ndikukuuzani zisanachitike, kuti zikachitika, mukhoza kukhulupirira kuti Ine ndine. (John 13:13-19)

Kutsatira munthu sikutanthauza kukhala pafupi nthawi zonse komanso osalakwitsa kapena kutembenuka molakwika: ndi za kutsimikiza mtima kupitiriza kutsatira munthu ameneyo mosasamala kanthu za zinthu zoterozo. Anthu ena amatsatira njira za anthu kuposa ena, ena amaphunzira kuzindikira mawu a Mulungu mofulumira kuposa ena ndipo ena amakwaniritsa zambiri kuposa ena. Koma ndi malingaliro amoyo. Monga Petro, tonse timasokoneza nthawi zina: koma wotsatira weniweni amangotsatira (Mat 24:13).

Choncho, ngati mukufunadi kumva zomwe Yesu akukuuzani kuti muchite ndikumvera iye monga Mbuye ndi Mbuye wanu, ndiye ngakhale mutakhala ofooka chotani, kangati mungalephere, kapena zomwe ena angaganize za inu, malonjezo awa a Yesu ndi anu…

Nkhosa zanga zimamva mawu anga, ndipo ine ndikuwadziwa iwo, ndipo anditsata Ine. Ine ndipereka moyo wosatha kwa iwo. Iwo sadzawonongeka konse, ndipo palibe munthu adzazikwatula m’dzanja langa.” (John 10:27-28)

Onse amene Atate andipatsa Ine adzadza kwa Ine. Iye wakudza kwa Ine sindidzamtaya konse kunja. Pakuti ndatsika kuchokera kumwamba, osati kuchita chifuniro changa, koma chifuniro cha Iye wondituma Ine. Ichi ndi chifuniro cha Atate amene anandituma Ine, kuti pa zonse adandipatsa ine ndisataye kanthu, koma ayenera kumuukitsa iye tsiku lomaliza. (John 6:37-39)
