Tazunguliridwa ndi zisonkhezero zambiri zochokera mbali zonse. Kodi timalola chiyani kulowa m'mitima mwathu, ndipo zotsatira zake zimakhala zotani?
“Ndipo mngeloyo anandionetsa mtsinje wamadzi amoyo, oyera ngati mwala wa krustalo ukutuluka ku mpando waufumu wa Mulungu ndi wa Mwana Wankhosa.” Chibvumbulutso 22:1. Palibe choyera komanso chowona ngati chimene chimachokera ku mpando wachifumu wa Mulungu ndi wa Mwanawankhosa.
Mizimu yonyansa yochokera pansi – kugwa ndi temberero
Masiku ano pali malo ambiri amene mizimu yoipa imatulutsira poizoni wochokera ku gehena. Iwo amene amafalitsa zinthu zodetsedwa kwambiri amakhala olemera kwambiri mwamsanga. Chigumula ichi cha uchimo ndi masautso n’chachikulu kuposa kale lonse ndipo chimachokera ku gehena komweko (Chivumbulutso 9:2). Anthu amene amalimbikitsa ndi kuteteza zinthu zodetsedwa ndi zoipa zimenezi amazitcha “kupita patsogolo.” Koma zoona zake n’zakuti akutsogolera chilichonse kubwerera ku masiku a Nowa, Sodomu ndi Gomora. Anthu adzakhala mumdima wauzimu womwewo Yesu akadzabweranso, ndipo mzimu womwewo udzalandira chiweruzo chomwecho (Mateyu 24:37-39).
Atsogoleri ambiri amene amadziwa kuti zonsezi zidzatsogolera ku njira yolakwika sayerekeza kutsutsa zimenezi poyera chifukwa amaopa kutchedwa achikale. Anthu opanda manyazi kwambiri komanso osatsatira malamulo amafunafuna maudindo a utsogoleri, ndipo mwatsoka amawapeza chifukwa anthu ambiri ndi ofooka komanso amantha. Nthawi zonse pakhala anthu ochepa okha ofunitsitsa kuimirira choonadi ndi chilungamo, koma nthawi zonse pakhala anthu ambiri ochirikiza zinthu zotsogolera ku njira yolakwika.
Kodi zotsatira za chigumula choipa chimene chatulutsidwa ku gehena n’chiyani? Zotsatira zake ndi nkhondo, umphawi, kusowa kwa zinthu ndi njala, ndende zodzaza ndi anthu, kusokonekera kwa maubwenzi a m’banja ndi kusudzulana, komanso kugwiritsa ntchito molakwika mowa ndi mankhwala osokoneza bongo, zomwe zimayambitsa kusasangalala ndi mavuto amitundumitundu. Kodi zonsezi ndi zolakwa za ndani? Kodi tingaimbe mlandu Mulungu? Ayi, tidzakolola zimene tafesa! Anthu amene amakhulupirira kuti zingakhale bwino kuthetsa kukhulupirira Mulungu ndi Chikhristu ali mumdima wandiweyani.
Pali mtsinje wa mizimu imene imakwera kuchokera ku gehena; ndi yoipa ndi yodetsedwa, ndipo imabweretsa temberero.
Mzimu woyera wochokera kumwamba – kupita patsogolo ndi madalitso
Olimbikitsa kwambiri kupita patsogolo amene anakhalapo padziko lapansi ndi Yesu ndi atumwi, komanso onse amene atsatira mapazi awo ndi maganizo ndi mzimu womwewo. Zotsatira za ntchito yawo ndi chilungamo, choonadi, mtendere weniweni ndi chimwemwe, maukwati osangalatsa ndi maubwenzi abwino a m’banja, chifundo, kuwolowa manja, ndi chilichonse cholemekezeka ndi chabwino.
Ngati aliyense akanatsatira malangizo awo, sipakanakhala chifukwa chokhalira ndi apolisi kapena asilikali. Milandu yonse yachiwawa, zachinyengo zonse ndi ziphuphu zonse zikanatha. Palibe amene akanamva njala kapena kuvutika. Ndende zonse padziko lapansi zikanakhala zopanda anthu. Ana aang’ono masauzande ambiri amene panopa akuchitiridwa nkhanza zoopsa, kumenyedwa ndi kuzunzidwa ndi makolo ankhanza, m’malo mwake akanakulira m’nyumba zachikondi.
Pali Mzimu umene umatuluka kuchokera ku mpando wachifumu wa Mulungu ndi wa Mwanawankhosa; ndi wabwino, woonekera bwino kotheratu ndiponso woyera, ndipo umabweretsa madalitso a Mulungu. Mulungu wathu alemekezeke chifukwa pali chinachake choonekera bwino ndi choyera, chimene chingatipangitse kukhala oonekera bwino ndi oyera. Madzi oonekera bwino kotheratu amenewa sayenera kuipitsidwa ndi “ife eni”, koma ayenera kupitiriza kuyenda ali oonekera bwino ndi oyera, monga dalitso kwa ife ndi kwa ena.
“‘...Aliyense amene akhulupirira Ine, mitsinje ya madzi amoyo idzatuluka mkati mwake.’ Ponena izi Iye amatanthauza Mzimu Woyera amene adzalandire …” Yohane 7:38-39. Tangoganizani mmene zingakhalire kudzazidwa ndi Mzimu woyera, wamoyo ndi watsopano wochokera kumwamba pamene tili m’dziko loipa, lamdima ndi lodetsedwa. Zotsatira zake zidzakhala Chikhristu chamoyo, osati zimene zimatchedwa kuchita zinthu zachipembedzo.
Kusintha ndi chipulumutso kudzera m’Mawu a Mulungu
Mwachibadwa, tonsefe ndife ochimwa, osayera komanso abodza, koma alemekezeke Mulungu chifukwa chakuti kudzera mu mphamvu ya uthenga wabwino tingayeretsedwe ndi kusinthidwa.
Yesu analankhula mawu oyera, moti amene anamva ndi kumukhulupirira anakhala oyera chifukwa cha Mawu amene Iye analankhula nawo. Yohane 15:3. Izi ndi zimene ifenso tiyenera kuchita. Anthu ambiri amalankhula ndi kulemba mawu amene amaipitsa ena. Petro analankhula mawu amene anapulumutsa anthu, ndipo Amitundu amene anamva ndi kukhulupirira mawu ake analandira mitima yoyera. Machitidwe 11:14; Machitidwe 15:9.
Yakobo analemba kuti: “Koma nzeru imene imachoka kumwamba, poyamba ndi yangwiro, ndi yokonda mtendere, yoganizira ena, yogonjera, yodzaza ndi chifundo ndi chipatso chabwino, yosakondera ndi yoona mtima.” Yakobo 3:17.
Kumbali ina, nzeru yochokera pansi imayambitsa nsanje, kunama, kudzikonda, chisokonezo, ndi zoipa zamtundu uliwonse. (Yakobo 3:14-16.) Yakobo akulembanso kuti nzeru imeneyi ndi yapadziko lapansi, yathupi, ndiponso yochokera kwa ziwanda. Zimenezi sizikusonyeza mtendere wochuluka kapena kukhala wololera kumvera zifukwa. Tikhoza kuona ndi kumva zimenezi tsiku lililonse.
Chiyero ndi mphamvu ya Mulungu zimayenderana
Yesu anati, “Odala ndi amene ali oyera mtima, chifukwa adzaona Mulungu.” Mateyu 5:8. Mu Nyimbo ya Solomo 6:10 tingathe kuona kuti mkwatibwi ali wodzala ndi chiyero ndi mphamvu: “Ndani uyu akuoneka ngati mbandakucha, wokongola ngati mwezi, wowala ngati dzuwa, wochitsa mantha ngati gulu lankhondo mbendera zili m'manja?” Chiyero ndi mphamvu ya Mulungu zimagwirizana. Ndi mphamvu yaikulu kwambiri imene aliyense angakhale nayo pa moyo, yom’thandiza kugonjetsa choipa ndi kuchita zabwino, kupirira ndi kuvutika, ndiponso kunyamula zinthu zonse mosangalala.
Tiyeni tonse timenye nkhondo ya chiyero m’nthawi yathu! Kenako Mulungu mwiniwake adzatitsogolera ku chigonjetso pankhondo zathu. Kumwamba konse kuli kumbali yathu pankhondo imeneyi. Pambuyo pake tidzakhala ogwirizana ndi anthu oyera ndi aulemerero onsewa monga miyala yamtengo wapatali mu Yerusalemu Watsopano.
