"Choncho, pitani mukapange ophunzira a mitundu yonse, ndi kuwabatiza iwo m'dzina la Atate, ndi la Mwana, ndi la Mzimu Woyera, ndi kuwaphunzitsa kumvera zonse zimene ndalamula [anakuuzani]." Mateyu 28:19.
Malangizo amenewa amene Yesu anapereka kwa ophunzira Ake nthawi zambiri amatchedwa "Ntchito Yaikulu" ndipo ndi cholinga chachikulu ndi cholinga chimene Yesu anali nacho kwa ophunzira. Mu chikondi Chake chosatha ndi nzeru, Iye amafuna kuti anthu ambiri monga momwe angathere abwere ku moyo wachimwemwe ndi mtendere ndi Mulungu. (2 Petro 3:9.)
Tsoka ilo, satana amayesetsa kwambiri kuti anthu apite njira ina. Ndipo nthaŵi zina, mosasamala kanthu za zoyesayesa zanu zabwino koposa, pamene muyesa kutembenuza anthu kukhala Kristu, zimangowakankhira kutali.
Gwiritsani ntchito chipulumutso chanu
Paulo analemba momveka bwino kuti njira yopulumutsira anthu ena ndiyo kudziyang'ana nokha. "Samalani [tcherani khutu kwambiri] kwa inu nokha ndi chiphunzitso [uthenga wabwino]. Pitirizani mwa iwo, pakuti pochita zimenezi mudzadzipulumutsa nokha ndi iwo akumva inu." 1 Timoteyo 4:16.
Mwina izi sizikumveka bwino, koma kwenikweni ndi nzeru. Paulo ankadziwa kuti palibe amene angapusitsidwe ndi munthu wotchedwa "Mkhristu" woyesa kulalikira moyo umene iyeyo sanali kukhala nawo. Chotero, njira yopangira ophunzira ndiyo kukhala ndi moyo wa wophunzira nokha.
Ntchito Yaikulu yonse ingachitidwe mwa kutsatira malangizo osavuta a Paulo. Iye samalemba kuti muyenera kulabadira kwambiri nokha ndi uthenga wabwino ndiyeno patapita kanthawi mukhoza kupita kukapulumutsa omwe akukumvani. Ayi, ndi mwa kudzisamalira kwambiri kuti mungatsogolere ena kwa Kristu.
M'mawu ena, Paulo akunena kuti ngati mukufuna kuthandiza anthu kuti apulumuke, muyenera kulabadira zimene Mulungu akukuuzani kuti muchite pa moyo wanu. Adzachita zotsalazo. Adzakuwonetsani nthawi yoti mulankhule komanso zoyenera kunena komanso mmene munganene.
Moyo wokongola
Ngati mukuwerenga kale mu 1 Timoteyo 4 mukhoza kuona zinthu zingapo zimene Paulo ankatanthauza ndi "samalani nokha ndi chiphunzitso".
"Musalole aliyense kukukhumudwitsani chifukwa chakuti ndinu wamng'ono, koma khalani chitsanzo kwa okhulupirira m'kalankhulidwe kanu, khalidwe lanu, chikondi chanu, chikhulupiriro, ndi chiyero. Kufikira nditabwera, perekani nthaŵi yanu ndi kuyesayesa kwanu ku kuŵerenga Malemba poyera ndi kulalikira ndi kuphunzitsa. Musanyalanyaze mphatso yauzimu imene ili mwa inu, imene inaperekedwa kwa inu pamene aneneri analankhula ndipo akulu anaika manja awo pa inu. Chitani zinthu zimenezi ndi kudzipereka kwa izo, kuti kupita kwanu patsogolo kuwonedwe ndi onse. " 1 Timoteo 4:12-15.
Khalani chitsanzo m'chikondi. Mu chiyero. M'chikhulupiriro. Mu khalidwe. Ŵerengani chiphunzitsocho, chimene chalembedwa m'Baibulo. Samalani ndi malangizo amene mumapeza. Mwachidule, chitani chifuniro cha Mulungu m'moyo wanu. Chifuniro cha Mulungu nchakuti mukhale omasuka ku uchimo ndi kukhala ndi moyo woyera, woyera, ndi wopanda liwongo.
Ndipo pamenepo mudzakhala ngati Paulo amene akulemba kuti, "Chiphunzitso changa ndi kulalikira sizinali ndi mawu a nzeru za anthu amene amakopa anthu koma ndi umboni wa mphamvu imene Mzimu amapereka." 1 Akorinto 2:4. Mukamayenda motere, ndiye kuti Mulungu adzakupatsani mphamvu mukamalankhula. Ndiye mawu anu sangangomveka okhutiritsa. Mawu anu adzakhala ndi zinthu, mphamvu, ndi nzeru za moyo wokhulupirika. "Lolani kuti zokambirana zanu nthawi zonse zikhale zodzaza ndi chisomo, zokometsera ndi mchere, kuti mudziwe momwe mungayankhire aliyense." Akolose 4:6.
Ngati mumakhala moyo ngati umenewu, mumakhala "Baibulo" pamapazi awiri omwe anthu ozungulira mungathe "kuwerenga". Koma ngati sakuona kuti mukumasuka ku uchimo, kuti mukukhala odzala ndi chimwemwe, mtendere, kudzichepetsa, kukoma mtima, kuleza mtima, ndi madalitso, ndiye n'chifukwa chiyani ayenera kufuna kukhala Mkhristu?
Mulungu amagwira ntchito mwa ife
Kwalembedwa kuti "Ndi Mulungu amene amagwira ntchito mwa inu ponse paŵiri chifuniro ndi kuchita kaamba ka chisangalalo Chake chabwino." Afilipi 2:13. Ndipo popeza tikudziŵa kuti chisangalalo chabwino cha Mulungu nchakuti ambiri monga momwe angathere amapulumutsidwa, pamenepo tikudziŵa kuti Mulungu adzagwira ntchito mwa ife kotero kuti chonulirapocho chidzafikiridwa.
Pamene muli zana peresenti kumvera zonse zimene Mulungu amaika pa mtima wanu kuchita, ndipo inu mukukhala moyo woyera, wopanda cholakwa ndi woyera, ndiye Iye adzathanso kugwiritsa ntchito inu kuti apulumutse anthu ozungulira inu ndi kuwabweretsa kwa Khristu.
Limanenanso kuti "Palibe amene angabwere kwa Ine pokhapokha ngati Atate wondituma Ine amkoka iye." Yohane 6:44. Palibe munthu amene anatembenuzidwapo kukhala Kristu amene anatembenuzidwapo ndi munthu wina. Ndi Mulungu amene amawakokera kwa Iyemwini. Koma inu mukhoza kukhala co-ntchito ya Mulungu ndi chida chimene Iye angagwiritse ntchito kubweretsa anthu kwa Iye.
Mulungu amafuna kuti anthu apulumuke. Ndipo pamene mukufuna zimene Mulungu akufuna, ndiye Iye adzagwiritsa ntchito inu kuthandiza kukwaniritsa cholinga ichi. Ngakhale kuti sizikuwoneka ngati zomveka, njira yopita ku izi ndiyo kudziyang'ana nokha ndikufunsa kuti, "Mulungu, mukufuna kuti ndichite chiyani ndi moyo wanga? Kodi ndi tchimo lotani limene ndingayeretse m'moyo wanga? Kodi ndi mbali zatsopano ziti za kunyada ndi chinyengo zimene zilipo kuti zichotse? Kodi ndingasonyeze bwanji moyo wa Khristu mwa ine?"
Ndipo pamene kuwala koyera koyera kumeneko kukuwala kuchokera kwa inu, pamene zinthu zomwe mumanena ndi kuchita zili ngati zinthu zomwe Khristu Mwini anganene ndi kuchita, pamene pali mtendere waukulu, chimwemwe, ndi chiyero chowunikira kuchokera kwa inu, ndiye kuti ena adzazindikira. Pamenepo Mulungu adzathadi kukugwiritsani ntchito.
Mukatero mudzatha kutsogolera anthu kwa Khristu.
