Kodi ukapolo uti monga ukugwirira ntchito chikhulupiriro cha chikhristu chomwe mungafunse? Ukapolo potanthauziridwa munthawiyi ndikumangika kapena kumangiriridwa ndi mphamvu zakunja kapena kuwongolera. Zowonadi mutha kukhala muukapolo osadziwa. Choyamba, wina ayenera kudzifunsa ngati akuopa munthu kapena Mulungu? Kodi mwakhala mukukhudzidwa motsutsana ndi mawu a Mulungu kale? Kodi mudakumana ndi nthawi yomwe winawake adagwiritsa ntchito zamulungu kapena mtambo wauzimu kuti apange kukayika mwa inu kuchokera pazomwe mukudziwa kuchokera mu baibulo? Kodi mudakumana ndi nthawi yomwe lembalo lakhala lovuta kwambiri kotero kuti lembalo likusavuta? Kodi mwapangidwapo kudzimva kuti mulibe chidwi ndiuzimu poyerekeza ndikukula kwauzimu kwa mlaliki mobwerezabwereza? Ena ali mu ukapolo kutengera maulosi omwe awalalikira. Kodi mukukhala moyo wanu wachikhristu, wolamulidwa ndi ziphunzitso za anthu? Izi ndi zizindikilo zochepa kuti muli mu ukapolo.
Tiwerenge Aroma 8:15, “Pakuti inu simunalandira mzimu wa ukapolo kuchitanso mantha; koma munalandira mzimu ngati kukhazikitsidwa, umene tifuula nawo Abba. ” Agalatiya 5: 1 akutiuzanso kuti, "Chifukwa chake chirimikani, mwa ufulu, mmenemo Kristu anatimasula ife, ndipo musakodwenso ndi goli la ukapolo."
Utumiki wachikhristu ku West Africa utawunikiridwa zambiri zidachitika ndipo ndidayamba kudzifunsa ndekha za malingaliro omwe ndimapeza m'mipingo ina. Ndidaganizira mozama za ziyembekezo za chikhulupiriro chachikhristu. Amishonale omwe anabwera ku Africa anali ndi nkhawa ndi moyo wa anthu ngakhale atakhala ndi zolinga zina zadziko. Adabweretsa chikondi, kukoma mtima, ndikuyesera kusintha moyo wathu kuti ugwirizane ndi zaka zomwe timakhala. Iwo amaganiza zakudya zabwino; adabweretsa maphunziro ndikumanga zipatala. Anabweretsa kufunika kwa madzi oyera kuwunikira. Iwo adayambitsa magetsi ndikupanga misewu ndi zipatala, zonse kwaulere kwa anthu. Ambiri mwa awa amishonale adayambitsa, kumanga nyumba ndikukhala pakati pa anthu. Iwo anali akazembe a uthenga wabwino. Inde, maboma awo atha kukhala ndi zolinga zosiyana; koma palibe amene angakane kuti adawonetsa chikondi, adathandizira anthu ndikuwapatsa malangizo. Ena a iwo ankakhala m'nyumba zopanda zinthu ndipo anali okonzeka kusamalira anthu akumaloko. Lero tachokera kutali pakukula kwathu kwachikhristu osakhwima, poyerekeza ndi amishonale oyamba. Kumbukirani makoleji ndi zipatala za amishonale, zonse ndi zoyesayesa za tchalitchi ndipo anthu amalipira zochepa kapena sanalandire chilichonse. Lero ndi mamembala ambiri komanso ndalama zambiri zoperekedwa ndi mamembala, komabe ana awo sangathe kupita ku makoleji, mayunivesite kapena kulandira chithandizo mwachilungamo kapena chaulere muzipatala izi. Chomvetsa chisoni ndichakuti mamembala awo amawona zinthu zonsezi ndikugwiritsabe zolimba kuzipembedzo zomwe zimatchedwa zipembedzo. Chowonadi ndichakuti anthu awa, ndipo ngati muli m'modzi wa mamembala amatchalitchiwa ali muukapolo ndipo sakudziwa. Dzipulumutseni O! Ziyoni.
Tiyeni tiyambe ndi chinthu chimodzi chomwe sichikupezeka lero chomwe Yesu Khristu adakopera, chomwe adakopera amishonale oyambilira ndikusiyidwa ndi alaliki ndi atsogoleri amatchalitchi komanso akulu amakono. Umenewo umatchedwa CHIFUNDO. Mu Mat. 15: 31-35, ngakhale Ambuye wathu Yesu Khristu anati, “Ndimamvera chisoni khamu la anthu chifukwa akhala ndi ine masiku atatu tsopano, ndipo alibe kanthu kakudya: ndipo sindidzawatumiza osadya kuti angakomoke njirayo." Uyu ndi Mulungu pa dziko lapansi akuonetsa chifundo kwa anthu koma lero atsogoleri ambiri ampingo ndi akulu akuwonetsa Lk.10 25-37, pomwe atsogoleri achipembedzo 'ankanyoza chifundo; koma Msamariya Wachifundoyo adawonetsa makhalidwe achikondi. Lero, mukuwona anthu wamba kapena unyinji mu tchalitchi sangamve chikondi ichi. Ena mwa iwo amayenda mamailosi angapo kupita kumisonkhano, ena ali ndi njala ndi ludzu ndikubwerera komweko ali ndi njala ndipo zochepa zomwe amatha kudya amaponya m'chiwaya. Kwa ambiri mwa anthuwa amakhala akumwetulira ndipo amatha kufa akumwetulira, chifukwa ali ndi chiyembekezo choti athandizidwe. Ena amabwera ndi mavuto ndi matenda ndipo amafunikira uphungu koma sangathe kupita kwa mtsogoleri wa tchalitchi kuti akapemphere. Nthawi zambiri ngati muli pamavuto azachuma mlaliki kapena mtsogoleri amatha kukuwonani osati iwo omwe alibe ndalama. Mipingo ina imakhala ndi mipando yokhala ndi mayina a omwe amapereka ndalama zambiri. Nanga bwanji omwe alibe ndalama zopangira ndalama zambiri? Mu Luka 21: 1-4, Yesu Khristu adalozera kwa wamasiyeyu ndi chopereka chake. Anaika zonse anali nazo. Mwa kupereka zonse anali nazo, anali wokonzeka kutaya moyo wake kapena gwero la chakudya chotsatira. Koma ena mwa opereka ndalama zazikulu amatero chifukwa chonyanyira ngakhale ataba ndalama, mankhwala osokoneza bongo komanso miyambo yachikhalidwe. Atsogoleri amatchalitchi amatenga ndalamazi ndikuwapatsa ulemu; ndiye mumafunsa kuti chikondi ndi kuopa Mulungu zili kuti m'masiku omaliza ano owopsa? Anthu wamba akupitilizabe kukodwa mu izi ndipo sakudziwa kuti ali muukapolo. Iyi si njira ya Yesu Khristu, ngati kuli kuti chifundo ndi kuti? Tembenukirani kwa Mulungu ndikusanthula baibulo ndikulolani Mwana wa Mulungu akumasuleni ku ukapolo wa anthu ndi Satana. Chifundo chili kuti? Chikondi chili kuti? Africa ndiyachipembedzo kwambiri chifukwa umphawi ndi zoyipa zawononga unyinji pakati pazambiri. Anthuwo akufuula kuti athandizidwe, boma lalephera ndipo ndichifukwa chake amathamangira kumatchalitchi kukapeza chitonthozo, thandizo ndi kuthandizidwa. Amangoponderezedwa ndi atsogoleri achipembedzo ndipo akulu amangowayang'ana. Ndiroleni ine ndikuwonetseni kuti mutha kupondereza anthu ndikuwasokoneza koma dziwani motsimikiza kuti chiweruzo chikubwera; ndipo kuweruzaku kudzayamba mnyumba ya Mulungu (1st Petro 4:17). Kumbukirani Masalmo 78: 28-31.
Nthawi zambiri mumamvera atsogoleri achipembedzo m'mipingo yaying'ono komanso yayikulu akunena kuti, "Musakhudze odzozedwa a Mulungu ndipo musawachitire choipa aneneri ake." Zonsezi akunena kuti awopseze anthu, kuwapanga kuganiza kuti ali okonda zauzimu komanso otumikira Mulungu. Iyi ndi imodzi mwanjira zopangira kubweretsa anthu mu ukapolo. Pali omwe amati kapena amasankhidwa kukhala akulu, omwe amawona zovuta izi ndikutseka maso awo kuti asawone chowonadi. Ena a iwo amalipidwa kapena ali gawo la ukapolo. Chiweruzo chidzawapeza. Monga mwazi wa Abele ndi ana omwe adachotsa mimba akulira pamaso pa Mulungu, momwemonso kulira kwa mipingo yosocherezedwayo ndi kuzunzidwa muukapolo, kukumveka pamaso pa Mulungu yemweyo. Zachidziwikire, chiweruzo chili pafupi. Ili kuti mzimu wolimba mtima womwe Mulungu adapatsa kwa akulu ampingo opulumutsidwa ndi odzinenera? Ukapolo ndi chida chowononga cha mdierekezi. Anthu ambiri asunthira kukhulupilira kwawo kwa Yesu Khristu kwa atsogoleri ampingo pazosowa zawo zonse ndipo ichi ndi chifukwa chachikulu chomwe iwo ali mu ukapolo.
Anthuwo ali mu ukapolo wochuluka kotero kuti tchalitchi tsopano chiyenera kusankha nthawi yomwe manda angachitike. Sikuti amangolamula tsiku loti aikidwe m'manda, samamvera chisoni anthu wamba ndi mabanja awo. Nthaŵi ina tchalitchi chinkafuna ndalama zosalipidwa za anthu a m'banja la anthu akufa. Inakhala kuyitanitsa ndalama kwa abale onse. Amayenera kulipira apo ayi sangayike malirowo. Ngati simukudziwa uku ndikumangidwa osati chifundo. Ndalama zimakhala Mulungu wawo. Sanatumikire abale awo kapena kuwukitsa akufa; chokha chomwe adawona chinali mwayi wopeza ndalama. Mabanja ena amatenga ngongole ndi manyazi kuti aike akufa awo. Kodi uku ndiko kuphunzitsa kolondola kwa malembo opatulika? Ngakhale akhristu ena enieni omwe amadziwa chowonadi amakhalabe mumatchalitchichi, chifukwa cha omwe adzawaike m'manda moyenerera akamwalira kapena atakwatirana. Ukapolo umatenga iwo omwe sakudziwa kapena amawopa kuyimirira pachowonadi. Koma zowonadi chiweruzo chikubwera.
Mukapita kukatumikira ku tchalitchi ndipo mukuvutika kugawa ndalama zanu muzipembedzo zing'onozing'ono chifukwa cha kuchuluka kwa zopereka zomwe mumachita mukakhala muukapolo ku tchalitchicho ndipo mukuyenda pazigoba za mazira azachuma ndipo simukuzindikira. Mulungu amakonda munthu wopereka mokondwera. Chifundo cha Ambuye Yesu Khristu sichipezeka nthawi zambiri. Tiyeni tichitire chifundo iwo omwe ali ndi mwayi wochepa. Kumbukirani nkhani ya Lazaro ndi munthu wachuma, ngati muli ndi mwayi. Koma apa cholinga chake ndi pa utsogoleri wolowezera tchalitchi; patsani anthu osauka mpumulo kuchoka ku ukapolo wa zopereka zinayi mpaka khumi ndi zopereka muutumiki umodzi. Dyetsani anthu a Mulungu ndi Mawu owona a Mulungu ndikuwachepetsera mavuto. Chiweruzo chikubwera ndipo chidzayamba kuyambira mnyumba ya Mulungu kuyambira pamwamba mpaka pansi.
Anthu ali mu ukapolo wosiyanasiyana, ena ndi abwino komanso ofunikira ngati ukwati, kupereka moyo wanu kwa Khristu. Muli ndi zomangira zauchiwanda monga, kugonjetsa anthu wamba ndi atsogoleri ena ampingo. Kumbukirani ukapolo wa ana a Israeli ku Aigupto ndi zomwe adakumana ndi zovuta pantchitoyo. Lero ndichinthu chofanana ndi omwe amangopanga maudindo ndiomwe amaweta nkhosa za Mulungu. Ambiri aiwo asanduka auzimu, opangidwa ndi anthu apanga malamulo omwe asandutsa ana a Mulungu kukhala akapolo. Ndikudabwa chisangalalo cha Akhristu ena pamavuto awa. Zimakumbutsa munthu za Masalmo 137: 1-4. Aliyense amene Mwana wamasula adzakhala womasuka ndithu. Kodi mumatamanda ndi kuyimba bwanji nyimbo ya Ambuye mu dongosolo lachilendo lomwe silikutsatira mawu a Mulungu koma ndi cholinga chokhazikitsa maufumu achipembedzo osawopa Mulungu; ndikuwasunga anthuwo mu ukapolo.
Ino ndi nthawi yoti mudziyese nokha ndikudziwe ngati muli muukapolo. Simungasangalale ndi chikondi ndi chitonthozo cha Ambuye mwachinyengo. Izi ndi zomwe zimachitika mukakhala mu ukapolo ndipo mwina simukudziwa. Ambiri mu mpingo lero ali muukapolo waukulu ndipo sakudziwa. Muyenera kuzindikira kuti muli muukapolo kuti mutha kulira chipulumutso. Ukapolo wachipembedzo ndiye choipa kwambiri kuzindikira ndi kutulukamo. Mukaponya chule m'madzi otentha nthawi yomweyo imalumpha koma mukaika chule yemweyo mumadzi ozizira imangokhala bata. Mukamayatsa moto pachidebecho, chule amakhala womasuka mpaka kufa mchidebe momwe kutentha kwamadzi kumawonjezeka. Izi ndizomwe zikuchitika kwa anthu m'malo ena achipembedzo. Amakhala omasuka, amayamba kulowa m'mapulogalamu ambiri ampingo ndipo pang'onopang'ono amaiwala mawu a Mulungu. Amakula paziphunzitso za anthu ndipo sakudziwa kuti ali m'tulo. Uwu ndi ukapolo ndipo ambiri sadziwa kuti ali pamavuto. Ambiri amafera muukapolo.
Bwerani kwa Yesu Khristu mwachangu, kumulandirani, kapena kudzipatuliranso kuti muchoke mu ukapolo. Tulukani pakati pawo ndipo patukani, 2nd Akorinto 6: 17. Kulikonse kumene Yesu Khristu sali likulu kapena woyamba tsopano ndi kachisi wa mafano. Mudzadziwa komwe (tchalitchi) Yesu Khristu adayikidwa patsogolo ndipo ngati sichoncho ndiye kuti mulungu wina akulamulira kumeneko. Tengani baibulo lanu kuti mupite kukafunafuna tchalitchichi chifukwa muli mu ukapolo ndipo simukudziwa. Samalani kwambiri ndi ziphunzitso za anthu, ngakhale atawoneka bwino bwanji, ngati zilibe maziko Amalemba ndi chiphunzitso cha anthu. Ngati Mwanayo adzakumasulani mudzakhala omasuka ndithu. Pezani komwe muli ndi zofooka m'moyo wanu nthawi zonse ndizomwe zimakulolani kuti mukhale mu ukapolo. Anthu ena amadalira anzawo kuti apempherere mavuto awo ndi kuwauza zomwe Mulungu ali nazo kwa iwo. Ngati mumalola izi nthawi zonse, ndichifukwa choti ndinu ofooka pakupemphera kapena kusala kapena kukhulupirira Mulungu kapena zina zambiri; izi zimabweretsa inu mu ukapolo wa munthu amene mwamupatsa mphamvu iyi. Ena amakulipiritsani kapena mumapatsa mphatso zazikulu kuti mulankhule ndi Mulungu m'malo mwawo, uwu ndi ukapolo. Pomaliza wokhulupirira aliyense ndi mwana wa Mulungu, osagulitsa kubadwa kwako molondola. Mulungu alibe zidzukulu. Mwina ndinu mwana wa Mulungu kapena simuli. Thawirani ku ukapolo kwa Yesu Khristu.
