M'matchalitchi a Orthodox a Kum'mawa kwa Yuropu, makamaka ku Russia, okhulupirira amagwiritsira ntchito moni wapadera wa Isitala. Iwo amapatsana moni ndi mawu akuti, "Khristu wauka!" ndipo akuyankhidwa ndi mawu akuti, "Iye waukadi!"
Pamene tili pa nkhaniyi, n'zosangalatsa kuona kuti mawu a Chirasha otanthauza "Lamlungu" amatanthauza "kuuka kwa akufa." Ngakhale m'nthawi zovuta, monga pansi pa Stalin (yemwe kale anali mtsogoleri wa Russia), iwo sanasiye mwambo umenewu, kotero kuti anthu ku Russia Lamlungu lililonse amakumbutsidwa kuti Yesu Khristu anaukitsidwa kwa akufa, kudzera m'chinenero chawo.
Tikudziwa kuti anthu ambiri amangoona maholide achikristu monga Khirisimasi ndi Isitala ngati miyambo yokongola, popanda tanthauzo lililonse lakuya kapena laumwini. Koma, malinga ndi Baibulo, zinthu zimenezi zachitikadi, ndi mfundo za mbiri yakale: Munthu amene Yesu Khristu, yemwe anadzitcha Mwana wa Mulungu, anapachikidwa, kuikidwa m'manda ndi kuuka kwa akufa pa tsiku lachitatu. M'Baibulo amafotokozedwa chonchi pa 1 Akorinto 15:3-5: "... kuti Khristu anafera machimo athu monga mwa Malemba, ndi kuti Iye anaikidwa m'manda, ndi kuti Iye anauka kachiwiri tsiku lachitatu malinga ndi Malemba ..."
Osati kokha kukhululukidwa kwa machimo
Ndili mwana, ndinaleredwa monga Mkhristu, ndipo ndinkadziwa zambiri zokhudza zimene zinalembedwa m'Baibulo: Imfa ya Yesu pamtanda, kuti Iye anauka kwa akufa, kukhululukidwa kwa machimo. Ngakhale kuti ndinaleredwa monga Mkristu, panali zaka zambiri zokha pambuyo pake pamene ndinamvetsetsa mkati mwa mtima wanga kuti Kristu anamwalira ndipo anaukitsidwa kaamba ka ine ndekha. Zinali ngati kuti munthu wina analipira ngongole zanga zonse mwadzidzidzi, zimene zinandichepetsa ndi kundipangitsa kukhala wopanda chiyembekezo. Chilichonse chimene chinali cholemera pa chikumbumtima changa ndi kundipangitsa kudzimva wolakwa, zolakwa zanga zonse, zolakwa zonse zimene ndinachita zinayeretsedwa ndi kulipidwa m'malo mwanga, ndipo moyo watsopano ungayambe. Pali mwambi wakuti "Chikumbumtima chabwino ndi pilo yofewa yogona". Ndimakumbukira bwino lomwe mmene ndinaliri wachimwemwe pamene ndinali kulankhula ndi munthu amene ndinali naye chidaliro, ponena za chirichonse chimene chinali pamtima panga, ndipo ndikanatha kuulula machimo anga. Mu Salmo 32:1-2 muli mawu olimbikitsa awa: "Wokhululukidwa cholakwa chake, amene tchimo lake laphimbidwa, alidi wachimwemwe! Amene Yehova samamuona kuti ndi wolakwa— amene mzimu wake ulibe kusawona mtima— ameneyo alidi wachimwemwe!"
Koma patapita kanthawi kochepa ndinkalakwitsa zomwezo ndikuchitanso zinthu zolakwika zomwezo, ndipo ndinkafunikanso kukhululukidwa. Koma kenako, tsiku lina, ndinakumana ndi anthu amene anandiuza za moyo wogonjetsa, kuti mu mphamvu ya Mulungu zinali zotheka kuthetseratu machimo monga mkwiyo, nsanje, malingaliro odetsedwa etc. Ndikakhala m'chiyeso, ndimatha kufuula ndi kupemphera kwa Mulungu kuti ndisapereke ndi kugwa mu uchimo. Nditamva zimenezo ndi kuziwona mwa ena, ndinapeza chiyembekezo chenicheni ndi chisangalalo chachikulu mumtima mwanga. Ndiyeno ndinaphunzira kuŵerenga Baibulo, limene ndinali kudziŵa kuyambira ndili mwana, ndi maso atsopano kotheratu.
Kugonjetsa moyo m'mapazi a Yesu
Yesu anabwera padziko lapansi ndipo anayesedwa kuchimwa, monga momwe ife tirili, koma Iye sanachimwepo. Iye sanagonje konse m'chiyeso, monga momwe chalembedwera momvekera bwino motero pa Ahebri 4:15: "Mkulu wa Ansembe wathu sali munthu amene sangamvere chisoni ndi zofooka zathu. M'malo mwake, tili ndi Mkulu wa Ansembe amene anayesedwa m'njira iliyonse imene tili, koma sanachimwe."
Pamene Iye kenako anafa pa mtanda, Iye anapereka chipulumutso chosatha kwa onse amene akufuna. Pa 1 Petulo 2:24 tingawerenge kuti: "Khristu ananyamula machimo athu m'thupi lake pamtanda kuti tisiye kukhala ndi moyo chifukwa cha uchimo ndi kuyamba kukhala ndi moyo wabwino. Ndipo mwachiritsidwa chifukwa cha mabala ake."
Iye ananyamula machimo athu pamtanda kuti tisiye kukhala ndi moyo chifukwa cha uchimo ndi kuyamba kukhala ndi moyo wabwino, osati kuti tipitirize kuchita machimo ndi zolakwa zomwezo kwa moyo wathu wonse! Ayi, Iye anabwera monga mpulumutsi, kudzatipulumutsa ku uchimo mobwerezabwereza! Ndipo chifukwa Iye sanachimwepo Iyemwini, imfa sinathe kumugwira, kapena. Chifukwa cha moyo Wake pano padziko lapansi ndi imfa Yake pa mtanda ndi chifukwa Iye wauka, ine tsopano mwadala kunena "Ayi!" pamene ine ndikuyesedwa kuchimwa. Ndiye ine ndikhoza kuyembekezera moleza mtima pamene ine ndikuyesedwa ku kusaleza mtima, Mwachitsanzo, kapena kukhala chete pamene ine ndikuyesedwa kulimbana mmbuyo etc. Mwanjira imeneyo inenso ndikhoza kukhala ndi moyo wogonjetsa ndikutsatira mapazi Ake. "Pakuti Mulungu anakuitanani kuti muchite zabwino, ngakhale zitatanthauza kuvutika, monga mmene Khristu anavutikira chifukwa cha inu. Iye ndi chitsanzo chanu, ndipo muyenera kutsatira mapazi ake. Sanachimwepo, kapena kunyenga munthu aliyense." 1 Petro 2:21-22.
Ndikhoza ndipo ndiyenera kunena kuti: Khristu waukitsidwadi! Iye anaferadi machimo anga, ndipo Iye amapereka mphamvu yeniyeni ndi yaikulu ya kukhala ndi moyo watsopano. Ngati nditsatira mokhulupirika mapazi Ake (1 Petro 2:21), ine ndekha tsiku lina ndidzaukitsidwa ku moyo wosatha!
