"Koma ngati tiyenda m'kuunika monga Iye ali m'kuunika, tili ndi chiyanjano wina ndi mnzake, ndipo magazi a Yesu Khristu Mwana Wake amatiyeretsa ku uchimo wonse." 1 Yohane 1:7.
Kodi kuunika nchiyani? Tingapeze yankho pa Salmo 119:105 lakuti: "Mawu anu ndiwo nyali ya kumapazi anga, ndi kuunika kwa njira yanga."
Kodi kuunika nchiyani?
Mawu a Mulungu ndiwo kuunika. Ndipo kuyenda mu kuwala ndi kukhala ndi moyo wanga mogwirizana ndi Mawu a Mulungu – ndiye Mawu amakhala moyo wanga. Zimatanthauzanso kuti sindichita chilichonse chotsutsana ndi Mawu a Mulungu.
Timawerenga mu 1 Yohane 1:5-6 (NLT), "Uwu ndi uthenga umene tinamva kuchokera kwa Yesu ndipo tsopano tikulengeza kwa inu: Mulungu ndi kuwala, ndipo mwa iye mulibe mdima konse. Choncho tikunama ngati tikunena kuti tili ndi chiyanjano ndi Mulungu koma tikupitiriza kukhala mumdima wauzimu; sitikuchita choonadi." 1 Yohane 1:5-6 (NLT).
Uchimo ndi mdima. Choonadi ndi kuwala. Chimawala mkati mwanga ndi kundisonyeza kumene kudakali tchimo m'moyo wanga. Pamene kuwala kumawala pa mdima wanga, ndiyenera kuvomereza choonadi - kuti padakali tchimo m'moyo wanga lomwe ndikufunikira kuchotsa. Mawu a Mulungu amandisonyeza mmene moyo wanga uyenera kukhalira, ndipo pamene ndiyesedwa kuchimwa, ndingasankhe kuchita zimene Mawu a Mulungu amanena m'malo mwa zimene zokhumba zanga zimafuna. Mwanjira imeneyi, Mawu angakhale moyo mwa ine.
Kuwala kundisonyeza choonadi
Tiyeni tifotokoze pogwiritsa ntchito chitsanzo. Mwina ndimamva kuti munthu wina wakhala akulankhula zoipa za ine, ndipo ndimapwetekedwa mtima, kukwiya, ndi kukhumudwa. Koma kenako kuwala (Mawu a Mulungu) kumabwera ndi kundisonyeza kuti ndi kunyada kwanga ndi kudzikonda komwe kumapweteka komanso kuti ndi chifukwa chenicheni chomwe ndikumvera kukwiya ndi kukhumudwa, kaya zomwe adanena za ine ndi zoona kapena ayi.
Chowonadi ndi chakuti mkwiyo wanga umachokera ku tchimo mu chikhalidwe changa chaumunthu, kuchokera ku kunyada kwanga. Koma Mawu a Mulungu amati, "Pempherani amene akukupwetekani." Mateyu 5:44 (NCV); ndipo, "Mulungu akutsutsana ndi onyada, koma amapereka chisomo kwa odzichepetsa." Yakobo 4:6 (NCV).
Tsopano kuwala kwandisonyeza mdima umene udakali mwa ine - kunyada kwanga, kudzilungamitsa, kufuna kutamandidwa ndi anthu. Ngati ndinali womasuka kwathunthu pa izi, ndiye kuti palibe chimene aliyense ananena za ine chimene chingandikhudze konse. Tsopano ndingasankhe kumvera kuunika ndi kusankha kuchita zimene Mawu a Mulungu amanena, kapena ndingasankhe kupitiriza mumdima.
Ngati ndisankha kuchita zimene Mawu a Mulungu amanena, ndiye kuti ndimalola magazi a Yesu Khristu kundiyeretsa ku uchimo (1 Yohane 1:7). Izi zikutanthauza kuti ndikuvomereza choonadi, ndipo ndikunena kuti "kayi" ku malingaliro a mkwiyo ndi kudzilungamitsa komwe kukubwera - ndikuwatsutsa.
Ichi ndi chitsanzo chimodzi chosavuta, koma pamene ndikufunadi kuchita zimene Mawu a Mulungu amanena, zimandisonyeza zinthu zina zambiri zimene zimafunikirabe kuyeretsedwa m'moyo wanga, zazikulu kapena zazing'ono. Popanda kuwala (Mawu a Mulungu) ndili mumdima ndipo sindingathe kuona kuchuluka kwa uchimo umene ulipo mu chikhalidwe changa chaumunthu kapena momwe ndikufunikira kusintha. Kuwala kumaweruza tchimo lomwe limakhala mwa ine, ndipo pamene ndili wofunitsitsa kuweruzidwa ndi kuwala, sitepe ndi sitepe, ndiye kuti ndasinthidwa kuti ndikhale wofanana kwambiri ndi Yesu (Aroma 8:29).
Yendani mu kuwala – kumvera kuwala
Anthu ambiri amakonda mdima, chifukwa zimenezo zikutanthauza kuti sayenera kusiya kuchimwa. "Umu ndi mmene chiweruzo chimagwirira ntchito: kuunika kwabwera m'dziko, koma anthu amakonda mdima osati kuwala, chifukwa zochita zawo n'zoipa. Amene amachita zoipa amadana ndi kuunika ndipo sadzabwera ku kuunika, chifukwa safuna kuti ntchito zawo zoipa ziwonetsedwe. Koma amene amachita zoona amadza ku kuunika kuti kuunika kusonyeze kuti zimene anachitazo zinali kumvera Mulungu." Yohane 3:19-21 (GNT). Kodi choipa nchiyani? Ndi tchimo m'moyo wanga.
Ndikamayenda mu kuwala, moyo umakhala waufulu komanso wabwino. Ndikamayenda m'kuunika, chikumbumtima changa chimakhala chabwino nthawi zonse. Ndikamayenda m'kuunika, ndimayanjana ndi ena chifukwa ndikangoona chinthu chimene chingabwere pakati pathu, ndimasankha kuchita zimene Mawu a Mulungu amanena osati zoipa zimene uchimo wanga umafuna.
"Amene ali a Khristu Yesu ... asiya malingaliro awo akale adyera ndi zinthu zoipa zimene ankafuna kuchita." Agalatiya 5:24 (NCV).
Ndikakonda kuwala, ndimalakalaka kuti kaunikire mbali iliyonse ya moyo wanga kuti ndione zinthu zimene sizili monga mmene Mulungu amafunira. Ndimakhala mwana wa kuwala. Kumene kuwala kumawala, kukula kwatsopano kumayamba. Chikondi, chimwemwe, kukoma mtima, kuleza mtima, ndi zipatso zonse za Mzimu zimakula m'kuunika.
"M'mbuyomu munali odzaza ndi mdima, koma tsopano mwadzala ndi kuwala mwa Ambuye. Choncho khalani ngati ana a kuunika." Aefeso 5:8 (NCV).
Ngakhale ngati ndimakonda Mulungu, sizikutanthauza kuti ndili ndi kuwala kofanana ndi okhulupirira ena. Mulungu amandisonyeza kokha monga momwe ndingathere kupirira panthaŵi imodzi. Choncho sindingathe kukakamiza kuunika amene ndalandira pa wina aliyense, kaya ndi ophunzira enieniwo kapena ayi. Kuunika kumene ndalandira kuchokera kwa Mulungu ndiko kumene kuli koyenera kwa ine. Sindingathe kuweruza ena malinga ndi kuwala kwanga. Mulungu yekha ndi amene amadziwa mitima ya anthu ndipo ndi amene angaweruze molungama.
Amene amayenda m'kuunika ndi ophunzira a Yesu Kristu. "Kachiŵirinso Yesu analankhula ndi anthu. Panthaŵiyi iye anati, "Ine ndine kuunika kwa dziko! Nditsatireni, ndipo simudzakhala mukuyenda mumdima. Mudzakhala ndi kuwala kopatsa moyo." Yohane 8:12 (CEV).
Ngati ndife ophunzira oona amene amatsatira Yesu m'kuunika, ndiye kuti 1 Yohane 1:7 (NLT) adzakhala moyo wathu: "Koma ngati tikukhala m'kuunika, monga Mulungu ali m'kuunika, ndiye kuti tili ndi chiyanjano ndi wina ndi mnzake, ndipo magazi a Yesu, Mwana wake, amatiyeretsa ku uchimo wonse."
