TIYENERA KUBADWA MWATSOPANO MWA MADZI NDI MZIMU WOYERA

Pamene Mulungu adalenga kumwamba ndi

Koma popeza munthu adachimwa pamaso pa Mulungu, munthu adayenera kufa kamodzi kokha: “munthu aliyense adzafa kamodzi kokha ndipo kenaka adzaœeruzidwa” (Ahebri 9:27).

Imfa ya thupi lathu ndi njira yokaloœera kumwamba. Anthu opanda uchimo adzaloœa ku dziko la muyaya mu Ufumu wa Mulungu ndipo adzakhala pa chikondwerero chakuti iwo ndi ana a Mulungu, pamene ochimwa adzaponyedwa

“M’nyanja ya moto yodzala ndi miyala ya Sulufule yoyaka” (Chivumbulutso 20:10).

Choncho nkoyenera kuti anthu onse abadwenso mwa tsopano. Tiyenera kubadwanso mwatsopano kudzera m’chikhulupiliro chathu, kuomboledwa ndi kukhala olungama. Pakuti ndi njira yokhayo imene tinga kaloœere ku ufumu wa muyaya wa kumwamba. Baibulo limatiuza zimenezi. “Ngati munthu sabadwa mwa madzi ndi mwa Mzimu Woyera sangathe kuloœa mu ufumu wa Mulungu” (Yohane 3:5). Mzimu Woyera ndi njira yokhayo imene ife tinga loœere mu ufumu wa Mulungu.

Nanga ‘madziœa’ ndi ‘Mzimu’ zimene zimatilora ife kubadwanso mwatsopano ndi chiyani? Mau a Mulungu akamanena madzi anena ubatizo wa Yesu.

Nchifukwa chiyani Yesu, amene ndi Mulungu anabatizidwa ndi Yohane Mbatizi? Kodi ndi kuonetsa kudzichepetsa kwake? Kodi kunali kufuna kudzionetsa kuti Iye ndiye Mpulumutsi wolonjezedwa uja? Ai. Sichoncho.

Pamene Yesu anabatizidwa ndi Yohane Mbatizi “Mwa njira yosanjika manja” (Levitiko 16:21), “Inali ntchito yolungama ya munthu m” modzi (Aroma 5:18), imene inachotsa machimo aanthu onse.

M’chipangano Chakale, Mulungu anapatsa Aisraele lamulo la chifundo la chiomboli pa Tsiku Lansembe yochotsera machimo onse a Aisraele anali kuperekedwa kudzera mwa wansembe wamkulu Aroni posanjika manja pamutu pa ‘mbuzi wonyamula’ machimo ndi kupereka machimo onse pa mbuziyo.

Awa anali mau a Chivumbulutso amene anali kunenedwa popereka nsembe ya muyaya yochotsera machimo imene inali kubwera kutsogolo. Idaulula choonadi chakuti machimo onse a anthu adzaperekedwa kwa Yesu Khristu kamodzi kokha malinga ndi chifuniro cha Atate. Iye anabatizidwa ndi Yohane Mbatizi amene anali wa fuko la Aroni ndiponso woyimira anthu onse.

Pamene Yesu anali kubatizidwa adauza Yohane kuti, “Tsopano lino vomera chifukwa umu ndi m’mene tiyenera kuchitira zimene Mulungu akufuna” (Mateyu 3:15).

Pamenepa, mau akuti “chifukwa umu” atanthauza kuti mwanjira yosanjika manja, machimo onse anaperekedwa kwa Yesu kuti zimene Mulungu anali kufuna zichitikedi. Mau akuti ‘chilungamo’ ndi ‘dikauzine’ cha chi Giriki ndipo amatanthauza kukhala ‘oyenera’ m’makhalidwe.

Yesu adakwaniritsa chifuniro cha Mulungu m,malo mwa anthu onse kudzera mu ubatizo wakwe molingana ndiponso moyenera.

Chifukwa chakuti anatenga machimo onse aanthu, kudzera mu ubatizo wake, Yohane Mbatizi adachitira umboni, “Suuyu Mwana wa Nkhosa wa Mulungu amene anachotsa machimo adziko lapansi” (Yohane 1:29).

Ndi machimo onse aanthu pa mapewa pake Yesu anapachikidwa pa Mtanda. Ndipo Iye

Ai. Sitingapulumuke pa maso pa Mulungu pakungokhulupilira mu imfa ya Yesu pa Mtanda.

Pamene ana a Aisraele anali kupereka nsembe yao yochotsera machimo Mchipangano Chakale, sichikanakhala chinthu chabwino kupha nsembe ya uchimoyo popanda kusanjika manja pa mutu pa nsembeyo.

Momwemonso sibwino kukhulupilira mu Mtanda wa Yesu popanda kukhulupilira mu ubatizo wake.

Choncho, mtumwi Petro anati, “Ubatizo wake, ufanizira ubatizo umene lero ukukhupulumutsani, kupyolera mu kuuka kwakwe” (1 Petro 3:21).

Chimodzimodzinso anthu amene sanakhulupilire m’madzi oopsa aja (chigumula) munthaœi ya Nowa adaonongeka.

Choncho mtumwi Yohane ananena kuti kukhala ndi chikukhulupiliro choona ndi kukhulupilira mu, “Umboni wa Mzimu Woyera, madzi ndi mwazi” (1 Yohane 5:8).

Tidzakhala ndi chikhulupiliro choona ngati tikhulupilira zimenezi. “Yesu ndi Mulungu ndipo anabwera mu thupi la munthu mwa Mzimu Woyera kudzera m’thupi la Maria namwali ndipo Iye anachotsa machimo onse adziko lapansi pakubatizidwa mu Mtsinje wa Yorodani ndi Yohane Mbatizi, woyimira anthu onse. Ndipo Yesu ananyamula machimo onsewo.” Choncho Uthenga Wabwino sungakhale wokwanira popanda ‘ubatizo wa Yesu’ ‘madzi,’ kaya tikhulupilire motani, sitingapulumutsidwe popanda ubatizo wa Yesu.

MBIRI YA MPINGO IMENE NACHOTSA UTHENGA WABWINO M’CHALICHI

Kodi masiku ano zakhala bwanji kuti Uthenga

Wabwino wonena za ubatizo wa Yesu wakhala ngati uthenga wonama, pa Chigiriki ‘pseudo-gospel’ ndipo uli kufalitsidwa molakwa padziko lonse?

Yesu atauka kwakufa ndikukwera kumwamba, atumwi anali kulalika ‘Uthenga wonena za madzi ndi mwazi’ Ngati tiœerenga bwino Chipangano Chatsopano, tikhoza kuona kuti si olemba Baibulo okha, komanso atumwi onse ndi ogwira ntchito Mu mpingo woyamba wachikhristu, kuphatikizapo atumwi aœa: Paulo, Petro ndi Yohane analalika momveka bwino ‘Uthenga Wabwino wa madzi ndi mwazi wa Yesu.’

Pakadali pano, Satana wakhala ali kuyetsetsa kuchokera pachiyambi kuthetsa ndi kuchotsa

Uthenga umenewu wa mpingo. Kuchokera pa nthaœi ya msonkhano wa ku Milani wa m’chaka cha 313 A.D., mpingo wa chikhristu unagwidwa mu m’sampha wa Satana. Mphamvu za ndale za Boma la Aroma, posinthana ndi maganizo akuti chikhristu ndiwo uli ndi chipembedzo chovomerezeka, zinakhala zokhazikika.

Ndipo pamane lamulo lakuti ‘munthu akayamba mpingo abatizidwe linakhazikitsidwa,’ Boma la Aroma linali kuyanjanitsa anthu ogaœikana m’maboma onse amene anali pansi pa ulamuliro wawo.

Pambuyo pake anthu anayamba kuloœeza pamtima chikhulupiliro chatumwi kuti chikhale ngati maziko a maphunziro a chikhristu. Chifukwa chaichi, Uthenga Wabwino mogwirizana kwatunthu ndi Mau a Mulungu ‘Uthenga wonena za madzi ndi Mzimu Woyera’ – zimene zimatipatsa “Mphamvu za Mzimu Woyera, ndiponso mosakaika konse” (1 Atesalonika 1:5) – udasoœanso.

Kwa zaka chikwi chimodzi (1000) utatha msonkhano waku Milani, kunafika nthaœi yoipitsitsa mu mpingo wa chikhristu ku maiko onse a azungu.

Ngakhale kuti magulu ofuna kukonzanso mpingo wachikhristu anayambidwa m’maiko ambiri, kupempha anthu kuti abwererenso ku ‘Mau, Chisomo ndi chikhulupiliro,’ palibe mmodzi wa iwo amene adapeza uthenga woona, uthenga wonena za madzi ndi Mzimu Woyera.’

Mzimu amatsogolera anthu olungama m’njira ya chilungamo ndiponso ndi kuœafikitsa ku chifuniro cha Atate. Motero, kodi chifuniro cha Atate ndi chiti? Ndi kufalitsa Uthenga Wabwino wa ubatizo wa madzi ndi wa Mzimu Woyera kwa

anthu a mtundu uli wonse ndi kuœabatiza monga momwe Yesu analamulira.

Matupi a olungama ndi ochimwa amachimwabe mpaka iwo atamwalira. Komabe, Ambuye anagwira ntchito yolungama yochotsa machimo onse amene anthu amachimwa ndi matupi awo ndiponso ndi mitima kudzera mu ubatizo ndi mwazi wake.

Machimo onse akale, atsopano ndi am’tsogolo a munthu wolungama anaperekedwa pa Yesu pa nthaœi imene anali kubatizidwa ndi Yohane Mbatizi. Thupi la munthu wolungama linafanso pamodzi ndi Yesu chifukwa cha machimo awo. Pamene munthu akhulupilira izi, amaphatikizana ndi Yesu mu imfa yake.

Choncho, ngakhale kuti thupi la munthu wolungama limene linafa pa mtanda pamodzi ndi Yesu lilibe kufuna zina koma kuchimwa kopitirira moyo wake wonse, Mzimu Woyera umakhala mu m’tima wake ndi kum’tsogolera iye kuti atsatire Mzimu Woyera. Munthu wolungama amatsatira Mzimu Woyera ndi kugwira ntchito yake chifukwa Mzimu Woyera amakhala mwa iye.

Ngakhale pa nthaœi ya atumwi anthu ambiri anali kukhulupilira kuti anthu amene akhulupilira Uthenga Wabwino wa madzi aubatizo ndi Mzimu Woyera sangakhale moyo wao wonse ndi makhalidwe oyera chifukwa m’mitima yao

Motero, mtumwi Paulo anati kwa anthu awa, “Tsopano tinene chiyani? Kodi tinene kuti tizingokhalabe mu uchimo kuti kukoma mu m’tima kwa Mulungu kuchuluke? Iai, mpang’ono pomwe. Tidachita ngati kufa nkulekana ndi uchimo. Nanga tingakhalebe mu uchimowo bwanji?” (Aroma 6:1-2). Anapitiriza nati, “Tiyamike Mulungu! Adzandipulumutsa ndiye kudzera mwa Yesu Khristu Ambuye athu! Motero ineyo, ndi m’tima wanga ndimatumikira malamulo a Mulungu, chonsecho ndikhalidwe langa lokonda zoipa ndimatumikira lamulo l uchimo” (Aroma 7:25).

Potsiriza, thupi la munthu wolungama silili lokwanira ndipo sitingasankhe koma kuchimwabe. Koma amatsatirabe mzimu Woyera, kufalitsa Uthenga Wabwino pa dziko lapansi lonse lapansi. Wolungama amayenda ndi Mzimu Woyera

chifukwa mu m’tima yao ali ndi chisomo cha Mulungu. “Bwanji tsono? Kodi tizichimwabe popeza kuti chimene chimalamulira moyo wathu si malamulo, koma kukakoma m’tima kwa Mulungu? Iai, mpang’ono pomwe. Mukudziœa paja kuti mukadzipereka kuti mukhale akapolo a munthu nkumamvera, ndiye kuti ndinu akapolo a munthu womverayo. Tsono ngati ndinu akapolo a uchimo, mudzafa. Koma ngati ndinu akapolo a Mulungu, mudzakhala olungama pamaso pake” (Aroma 6:15-16).

Monga momwe maluœo oona ndi osiyana ndi maluœa ochita kupangidwa ndi anthu, wolamulira m’mitima ya anthu olungama ndi wochimwa ndi osiyana. Motero olamulira mu m’tima wa munthu wolungma ndi Mzimu Woyera, akhoza kuyenda mu Mzimu Woyera ndi kutsatira choona chachilungamo mu umoyo wake, umene umsangalatsa Mulungu. Munjira ina, wochimwa alibe kusankha koma kupitiriza kuchimwa chifukwa womulamulira mu m’tima wake ndi

uchimo wokhao. Wochimwa sangakhale moyo woyera chifukwa alibe Mzimu Woyera chifukwa cha machimo ambiri amene ali ndi iye.

Chikhulupiliro choti okhulupilira Uthenga Wabwino wa madzi na ubatizo ndi Mzimu Woyera sangakhale moyo woyera ndi maganizo chabe ochokera ku thupi ai. Anthu ambiri lero sakumvetsa za moyo olungama ngakhale adzindikire Uthenga Wabwino wa madzi na ubatizo ndi Mzimu Woyera ngati Uthenga Wabwino woona, chifukwa saudziœa ndiponso sanaulandire m’mitima yao.

Kodi muganiza chiyani zokhuzana ndi ntchito yolungama yopereka zopereka ndi zinthu zambiri ndi nsembe kuti zifalitse Uthenga Wabwino wa aubatizo wa madzi ndi Mzimu Woyera chifukwa ali ndi Uthenga Wabwino?

Wolungama amachita zabwino kudzera muchikhulupiliro m’kati mwa zoona za chilungamo cha Mulungu. Amene akuyetsa kutsatira kuchita chilungamo ndi obadwa mwa
