Ena inu, mwina mukumva kuitana kokalalikira uthenga wabwino. Ngati ndi choncho, tiyeni tikhale okonzeka kuchita zabwino ndi kudalira Mulungu kwathunthu pamene tikupita m’madera osiyanasiyana a dziko lapansi. Ambiri a ife omwe timakalalikira uthenga wabwino timatumizidwa kumayiko ena, ndipo nthawi zina timaphunzira chinenero chatsopano. Mwina ndife achinyamata kapena achikulire, osakwatira kapena okwatira, ndipo ngakhale titapuma pantchito, tingathe kutumikira. Ntchito yachikondi imene timachita ndi yofunika kwambiri kwa anthu amene tikuwathandiza, chifukwa ambiri a iwo ali m’madera ovutika kwambiri padziko lapansi. Choncho, monga okhulupirira anzathu, ndikofunikira kuti tiziwapempherera nthawi zonse amuna ndi akazi olimba mtima amenewa omwe asiya moyo wawo wabwino ndi kuika miyoyo yawo pachiswe. Tiyeni tipemphere kuti Ambuye awapatse mphamvu kuti akhale olimba m’mavuto ndi masautso.
Nchifukwa chake inu pitani kwa anthu a mitundu yonse, mukaŵasandutse ophunzira anga. Muzikaŵabatiza m'dzina la Atate, ndi la Mwana ndi la Mzimu Woyera.
Koma Iye adaŵauza kuti, “Ndiyenera kukalalika Uthenga Wabwino wonena za Ufumu wa Mulungu ku midzi inanso, pakuti ndizo zimene Mulungu adanditumira.”
Lengezani za ulemerero wake kwa anthu a mitundu yonse, simbani za ntchito zake zodabwitsa kwa anthu a m'maiko onse.
Kodi anthu angatame Mulungu bwanji mopemba ngati sadamkhulupirire? Ndipo angamkhulupirire bwanji ngati sadamve za Iye? Ndipo angamve za Iye bwanji ngati palibe wina wolalika?
Ndipo anthu angalalike bwanji ngati palibe oŵatuma? Paja mau a Mulungu akuti, “Nchokondweretsa zedi kuwona olalika Uthenga Wabwino akufika.”
Ndipo Uthenga Wabwinowu wonena za ufumu wa Mulungu udzalalikidwa pa dziko lonse lapansi, kuti anthu a mitundu yonse apezepo umboni. Pamenepo ndiye chimalizo chidzafike.”
Yesu adadza pafupi naŵauza kuti, “Mphamvu zonse zapatsidwa kwa Ine Kumwamba ndi pansi pano.
Nchifukwa chake inu pitani kwa anthu a mitundu yonse, mukaŵasandutse ophunzira anga. Muzikaŵabatiza m'dzina la Atate, ndi la Mwana ndi la Mzimu Woyera.
Mwadzidzidzi kudachita chivomezi chachikulu. Ndiye kuti mngelo wa Ambuye adaatsika kuchokera Kumwamba, nadzagubuduza chimwala chija, nkukhalapo.
Muzikaŵaphunzitsa kusunga zonse zimene Ine ndidakulamulani. Ndipo Ineyo ndili nanu masiku onse, mpaka kutha kwa dziko lino lapansi.”
Paja Ambuye adatilamula kuti, “ ‘Ndakuika kuti uunikire anthu akunja, kuti mwa iwe ndipulumutse dziko lonse lapansi.’ ”
Koma pakati pao panali ena ochokera ku Kipro ndiponso ku Kirene. Ameneŵa adafika ku Antiokeya nayamba kulankhulanso ndi Agriki nkumaŵalalikira Uthenga Wabwino wonena za Ambuye Yesu.
Ndipo adatilamula kuti tikalalikire anthu onse, ndi kuchita umboni kuti Iyeyo ndiye amene Mulungu adamsankha kukhala Woweruza anthu amoyo ndi akufa omwe.
Koma pamene Filipo ankalalika Uthenga Wabwino wonena za Ufumu wa Mulungu, ndiponso za dzina la Yesu Khristu, anthu adakhulupirira, ndipo adabatizidwa, amuna ndi akazi omwe.
Tsono adaŵauza kuti, “Pitani ku dziko lonse lapansi, kalalikireni anthu onse Uthenga Wabwino.
kuti m'dzina lake mau alalikidwe kwa anthu a mitundu yonse, kuyambira ku Yerusalemu, mau akuti atembenuke mtima, kuti Mulungu aŵakhululukire machimo ao.
Yona adaloŵa mumzindamo, nayenda ulendo wa tsiku limodzi. Adayamba kulalika kuti, “Pakapita masiku makumi anai, Ninive aonongeka!”
Koma mudzalandira mphamvu, Mzimu Woyera akadzabwera pa inu, ndipo mudzakhala mboni zanga ku Yerusalemu, ku Yudeya ndi ku Samariya konse, mpaka ku malekezero a dziko lapansi.”
Si kukondwetsa kwake pamene mukuwona wamthenga akuyenda m'mapiri, akubwera ndi uthenga wabwino, akulengeza za mtendere, akudzetsa chisangalalo, akulengeza za chipulumutso, akuuza anthu a ku Ziyoni kuti, “Mulungu wanu ndi mfumu.”
Ona, kumapiri kukubwera munthu, iyeyu ali ndi uthenga wabwino, akulengeza za mtendere. Inu a ku Yuda muzisunga masiku achikondwerero; zimene mudalumbira, muzizichitadi. Anthu oipawo sadzakuthiraninso nkhondo. Adaonongeka kotheratu.
Petro adaŵauza kuti, “Tembenukani mtima, ndipo aliyense mwa inu abatizidwe m'dzina la Yesu Khristu. Mukatero machimo anu akhululukidwa, ndipo mudzalandira mphatso ya Mzimu Woyera.
Paja zimene Mulungu adalonjeza zija, adalonjezera inuyo, ana anu ndiponso anthu onse okhala kutali, onse amene Ambuye Mulungu wathu adzaŵaitana.”
Lalikani za ulemerero wake kwa anthu a mitundu yonse, simbani za ntchito zake zodabwitsa kwa anthu a m'maiko onse.
Ndipo palibe wina aliyense amene angathe kupulumutsa anthu, pakuti pa dziko lonse lapansi palibe dzina lina limene Mulungu adapatsa anthu kuti tipulumuke nalo.”
Tsiku lina pamene iwo adasonkhana kuti apembedze Ambuye ndi kuti asale zakudya, Mzimu Woyera adaŵauza kuti, “Mundipatulire Barnabasi ndi Saulo kuti akagwire ntchito imene ndaŵaitanira.”
“Pambuyo pake adaŵapatsa oweruza kufikira nthaŵi ya mneneri Samuele.
Kenaka anthu adapempha kuti aŵapatse mfumu, ndipo Mulungu adaŵapatsa Saulo, mwana wa Kisi, munthu wa fuko la Benjamini, iye nkuŵalamulira pa zaka makumi anai.
Pambuyo pake Mulungu adamchotsa Sauloyo, naika Davide kuti akhale mfumu yao. Za iyeyu Mulungu adanena kuti, ‘Ndapeza Davide, mwana wa Yese, ndiye munthu wanga wapamtima, amene adzachita zonse zimene Ine ndifuna.’
Mwa zidzukulu za Davideyo Mulungu adasankha Yesu kuti akhale Mpulumutsi wa Aisraele, monga momwe adaalonjezera kale.
Iyeyo asanayambe ntchito, Yohane ankalalikira Aisraele onse kuti atembenuke mtima ndi kubatizidwa.
Pamene Yohane anali pafupi kutsiriza ntchito yake, adafunsa anthu kuti, ‘Kodi inu mumayesa kuti ine ndine yani? Inetu sindine amene mukumuyembekezayo ai. Koma pakubwera wina pambuyo panga amene ine sindili woyenera ngakhale kumvula nsapato zake.’
“Ine abale, zidzukulu za Abrahamu, ndi ena nonse oopa Mulungu, uthenga wa chipulumutsowu Mulungu watumizira ife.
Anthu okhala ku Yerusalemu ndi akulu ao sadamzindikire Yesu, ndipo sadamvetse mau a aneneri amene amaŵerengedwa tsiku la Sabata lililonse. Komabe pakumzenga mlandu Yesuyo kuti aphedwe, adachitadi zimene aneneri adaaneneratu.
Ngakhale sadapeze konse chifukwa chomuphera, komabe adapempha Pilato kuti Yesuyo aphedwe.
Ndipo atachita zonse zimene zidalembedwa za Iye, adamtsitsapo pa mtanda paja namuika m'manda.
Tsono atasala zakudya ndi kupemphera adaŵasanjika manja naŵatuma.
Paulo ndi Barnabasi atalalika Uthenga Wabwino ku Deribe kuja, ndi kukopa okhulupirira ambiri, adabwerera ku Listara, ku Ikonio ndi ku Antiokeya m'dera la Pisidiya.
Koma sindilabada konse za moyo wanga, ngati kuti ndi wa mtengo wapatali kwa ine, malinga ndikatsirize ntchito yanga, ndi utumiki umene Ambuye Yesu adandipatsa, ndiye kuti kulalika poyera Uthenga Wabwino wonena za kukoma mtima kwa Mulungu.
Ine sindichita manyazi ndi Uthenga Wabwino ai, chifukwa Uthengawo ndi mphamvu ya Mulungu yopulumutsa munthu aliyense wokhulupirira, poyamba Ayuda, pambuyo pake anthu a mitundu ina.
Masiku onse ndinkayesetsa kulalika Uthenga Wabwino kumalo kokhako kumene dzina la Khristu linali lisanamvekebe. Ndinkaopa kumanga pa maziko amene munthu wina adaika.
Komabe pamene ndikulalika Uthenga Wabwino, apo pokha palibe ponyadira ai, popeza kuti ndi Ambuye amene adachita kundilamula zimenezo. Tsoka kwa ine ngati sindiulalika Uthenga Wabwinowo.
Abale, ndifuna kukukumbutsani Uthenga Wabwino umene ndidakulalikirani. Mudaulandira, ndipo mudakhazikitsapo chikhulupiriro chanu molimba.
Koma chifukwa chakuti Mulungu adandikomera mtima, ndili monga ndilirimu. Ndipo kukoma mtima kwakeko sikunali kopanda phindu, popeza kuti ndidagwira ntchito koposa atumwi ena onse. Komabe si ndine ndidaigwira, koma mphamvu za Mulungu zimene zikundilimbikitsa.
Motero kaya ndi ineyo kaya ndi iwowo, zimene timalalika ndi zomwezo, zimene mudakhulupirira ndi zomwezonso.
Tsono popeza kuti chimene timalalika ndi chakuti Khristu adauka kwa akufa, bwanji ena mwa inu akunena kuti, “Anthu akufa sadzaukanso?”
Ngati akufa sadzauka, ndiye kuti Khristunso sadauke.
Tsono ngati Khristu sadauke, kulalika kwathu nkwachabe, ndipo chikhulupiriro chanu nchachabenso.
Ngati zili choncho, ndiye kuti ndife mboni zonama, tikuchita umboni wonama m'dzina la Mulungu, ponena kuti Mulungu adaukitsa Khristu. Ngati nzoonadi kuti akufa sauka, ndiye kuti Mulungu sadamuukitse Khristuyo.
Pakuti ngati akufa sauka, Khristunso sadauke.
Ndipotu ngati Khristu sadauke, chikhulupiriro chanu nchopanda pake, ndipo mukadali m'machimo anu.
Pamenepo nawonso amene adamwalira ali okhulupirira Khristu, adatayika ndithu.
Ngati taika chikhulupiriro chathu mwa Khristu chifukwa cha moyo uno wokha, ndiye kuti ndife omvetsa chisoni koposa anthu ena onse.
Mulungu adzakupulumutsani ndi Uthenga Wabwinowu, ngati musunga bwino mau ake monga ndidakulalikirani. Popanda kutero, bwenzi mutangokhulupirira pachabe.
Koma ai, Khristu adauka ndithu kwa akufa. Pakati pa onse amene adafa, ndiye woyamba kuuka.
Pakuti monga imfa idadza pansi pano kudzera mwa munthu wina, momwemonso kuuka kwa akufa kudadza kudzera mwa munthu wina.
Monga anthu onse amamwalira chifukwa ndi ana a Adamu, momwemonso anthu onse adzauka chifukwa cholumikizana ndi Khristu.
Koma aliyense adzauka pa nthaŵi yake: woyambirira ndi Khristu, ndipo pambuyo pake, pamene Khristuyo adzabwera, nawonso amene ali ake adzauka.
Pamenepo chimalizo chidzafika. Khristu atathetsa ufumu wonse, ulamuliro wonse, ndi mphamvu zonse, adzapereka ufumu uja kwa Mulungu Atate.
Paja Khristu ayenera kulamulira mpaka atagonjetsa adani ake onse.
Mdani wotsiriza kumthetsa mphamvu, ndiye imfa.
Malembotu akuti, “Mulungu adamgonjetsera zinthu zonse.” Koma nchodziŵikiratu kuti pamene akuti “zinthu zonse,” sakuphatikizapo ndi Mulungu yemwe, amene adagonjetsera Khristu zinthu zonse.
Koma pamene zonse zidzakhala zitagonjera Khristu, pamenepo Mwana wa Mulungu nayenso adzagonjera Mulungu, amene adamgonjetsera zinthu zonse. Adzachita zimenezi kuti Mulungu akhale wolamulira aliyense kwathunthu.
Ngati Yesu sadauke kwa akufa, nanga amafunanji anthu amene amabatizidwa m'malo mwa amene adafa? Ngati akufa sauka konse, nanga chifukwa chiyani anthu amabatizidwa m'malo mwao?
Pajatu mau aakulu amene ndidakupatsani ndi omwewo amene inenso ndidalandira. Mauwo ndi akuti Khristu adafera machimo athu, monga Malembo anenera.
Nanga pamenepo ifenso timakhaliranji m'zoopsa nthaŵi zonse?
Abale anga, imfa ndimayenda nayo tsiku ndi tsiku. Ndikunenetsa zimenezi chifukwa ndimakunyadirani mwa Khristu Yesu Ambuye athu.
Nanga pamene ndidalimbana ndi zilombo ku Efeso, ndidapindulapo chiyani, ngati ndinkatsata maganizo a anthu chabe? Ndiyetu ngati akufa sauka, tizingochita monga amanenera kuti, “Tiyeni tizidya ndi kumwa, pakuti maŵa tikufa.”
Musadzinyenge. “Paja kuyanjana ndi anthu ochimwa kumaononga khalidwe.”
Mudzidzimuke mumtima mwanu, ndipo muleke kuchimwa. Ena mwa inu sadziŵa Mulungu konse. Ndikukuuzani zimenezi kuti muchite manyazi.
Koma kapena wina nkufunsa kuti, “Kodi akufa adzauka bwanji? Kodi adzakhala ndi thupi lotani?”
Ati kupusa ati! Mbeu imene umafesa, siingamere ndi kukhala moyo itapanda kufa.
Ndipo chimene ufesa, si mmera umene udzatuluka ai, koma ndi njere chabe, kaya ndi ya tirigu, kapena ya mtundu wina uliwonse.
Koma Mulungu amaisandutsa mmera monga momwe Iye akufunira, mbeu iliyonse mmera wakutiwakuti.
Mnofu sukhala wa mtundu umodzi. Pali mnofu wina wa anthu, wina wa nyama, wina wa mbalame, ndi wina wa nsomba.
Adaikidwa m'manda, mkucha wake adauka, monga Malembo anenera.
Tsono ndife akazembe oimirira Khristu, ndipo kudzera mwa ifeyo Mulungu mwini ndiye akulankhula nanu mokudandaulirani. Tikukupemphani m'dzina la Khristu kuti muvomere kuyanjananso ndi Mulungu.
Motero sitinyadira ntchito zimene anthu ena adazigwira m'dera limene Mulungu adatiikira ife. Kwenikweni tikuyembekeza kuti chikhulupiriro chanu chidzakula, ndipo kuti ntchito yathunso pakati panu idzakula, koma osabzola malire a dera lathu.
Pambuyo pake tingathe kukubzolani nkukalalika Uthenga Wabwino ku maiko enanso, osanyadira ntchito imene munthu wina wachita kale m'dera lake.
Koma Mulungu adandipatula ndisanabadwe, ndipo mwa kukoma mtima kwake adandiitana.
Tsono pamene adatsimikiza zondiwululira Mwana wake, kuti choncho ndikalalike Uthenga Wabwino wonena za Iye kwa anthu amene sali Ayuda, sindidapite kwa munthu aliyense kuti ndikapemphe nzeru.
Makamaka adaaona kuti Mulungu adandipatsa ine ntchito ya kulalika Uthenga Wabwino kwa anthu osakhala Ayuda, monga momwe adapatsira Petro ntchito ya kuulalika kwa Ayuda.
Pakuti Mulungu yemweyo amene adagwira ntchito mwa Petro pomutuma ngati mtumwi kwa Ayuda, adagwiranso ntchito mwa ine, pondituma ngati mtumwi kwa anthu a mitundu ina.
Pakati pa anthu onse a Mulungu ine ndine wamng'ono koposa, komabe Mulungu adandipatsa ineyo ntchito iyi, yakuti ndilalikire anthu a mitundu ina za chuma chopanda malire, chimene Mulungu amatipatsa mwa Khristu.
Ndimayamika Mulungu wanga nthaŵi zonse ndikamakukumbukirani.
Inunso mukumenya nkhondo yomwe ija imene mudandiwona ine ndikuimenya, yomwenso ndikumenyabe tsopano, monga mukumveramu.
Nthaŵi zonse pamene ndikukupemphererani nonsenu, ndimapemphera mokondwa.
Ndiyeneradi kuthokoza chifukwa mwakhala mukugwirizana nane ndi kundithandiza kufalitsa Uthenga Wabwino, kuchokera tsiku limene mudayamba kukhulupirira mpaka tsopano.
kuti mukhale angwiro ndi osalakwa, ana a Mulungu opanda chilema chilichonse pakati pa anthu onyenga ndi osokeretsa anzao. Pakati pa anthu otere mumaŵala monga momwe zimaonekera nyenyezi pa dziko lapansi,
pakuŵauza mau opatsa moyo. Motero ine ndidzakhala ndi chifukwa chonyadira pa Tsiku la Kubweranso kwa Khristu. Pakuti pamenepo padzadziŵika kuti sindidathamange pachabe pa mpikisano wa liŵiro, ndipo khama langa pa ntchito silidapite pachabe.
Khristuyo ndiye amene timamlalika. Timachenjeza ndi kuphunzitsa munthu aliyense ndi nzeru zonse zimene tili nazo. Pakuti tikufuna kusandutsa munthu aliyense kuti akhale wangwiro mwa Khristu.
Ndi cholinga chimenechi ndikugwiradi ntchito kwambiri ndi mphamvu ya Khristu imene ikugwira ntchito kolimba mwa ine.
Inde kuchokera kwa inu mau a Ambuye adakafika ku Masedoniya ndi ku Akaiya, ndipo kuwonjezera apo mbiri yakuti mudakhulupirira Mulungu idawanda ponseponse. Motero palibe chifukwa chakuti ife nkunenapo kanthu.
Koma timalalika chifukwa Mulungu adativomereza natisungiza Uthenga Wabwino kuti tiulalike. Choncho tikamaphunzitsa sitifuna kukondweretsa anthu, koma timafuna kukondweretsa Mulungu, amene amapenyetsetsa mitima yathu.
Potsiriza, abale, mutipempherere kuti mau a Ambuye afalikire msanga, ndipo anthu aŵalandire mauwo mwaulemu, monga momwe mudachitira inu.
Zimenezi nzabwino ndi zokondweretsa pamaso pa Mulungu, Mpulumutsi wathu.
Iye amafuna kuti anthu onse apulumuke ndipo kuti adziŵe choona.
Mau amene udamva kwa ine pamaso pa mboni zambiri, uŵasungitse anthu okhulupirika amene adzathe kuŵaphunzitsanso kwa ena.
Ndidakusiya ku Krete kuti ulongosole zonse zimene zinali zisanalongosokebe, ndi kuti uike akulu a mpingo mu mzinda uliwonse, monga momwe ndidakulamulira.
Pitirizani kukondana monga abale.
Ife tili ndi guwa, ndipo ansembe otumikira m'chihema chachipembedzo cha Ayuda saloledwa kudyako zoperekedwa pamenepo.
Mkulu wa ansembe wachiyuda amaloŵa ndi magazi a nyama ku Malo Opatulika kuti magaziwo akhale nsembe yopepesera machimo. Koma nyama yeniyeniyo amaiwotchera kunja kwa misasa.
Chifukwa cha chimenechi, Yesu nayenso adafera kunja kwa mzinda, kuti pakutero ayeretse anthu ndi magazi ake.
Tiyeni tsono tipite kwa Iye kunja kwa misasa kuti tikanyozekere naye limodzi.
Paja ife tilibe mzinda wokhazikika pansi pano, tikufunafuna wina umene ulikudza.
Nchifukwa chake, kudzera mwa Yesu tiyeni tipereke kosalekeza mayamiko athu kwa Mulungu ngati nsembe. Ndiye kunena kuti tipereke ngati nsembe mau athu ovomereza dzina lake poyera.
Musanyozere kumachita zachifundo ndi kumathandizana, chifukwa nsembe zotere zimakondweretsa Mulungu.
Muzimvera atsogoleri anu ndi kuŵagonjera. Iwo sapumulira konse poyang'anira moyo wanu, pakuti adzayenera kufotokoza za ntchito yao pamaso pa Mulungu. Mukaŵamvera, adzagwira ntchito yaoyo mokondwa osati monyinyirika, kupanda kutero ndiye kuti kwa inuyo phindu palibe.
Muzitipempherera ifeyo, pakuti sitipeneka konse kuti tili ndi mtima wopanda kanthu koutsutsa, ndipo tatsimikiza kuchita zonse mwachilungamo.
Ndikukupemphani makamaka kuti mupemphere kuti Mulungu andibwezere kwa inu msanga.
Musanyozere kumalandira bwino alendo m'nyumba mwanu. Pali ena amene kale adaalandira bwino alendo, ndipo mosazindikira adaalandira angelo.
Imbirani Chauta, tamandani dzina lake! Lalikani za chipulumutso chake tsiku ndi tsiku.
Lengezani za ulemerero wake kwa anthu a mitundu yonse, simbani za ntchito zake zodabwitsa kwa anthu a m'maiko onse.
Thokozani Chauta, tamandani dzina lake, lalikani za ntchito zake pakati pa mitundu ya anthu.
Kenaka ndidamva mau a Ambuye akuti, “Kodi ndidzatuma yani, ndani adzatipitire?” Apo ndidati “Ndilipo ineyo, tumeni.”
Mzimu wa Ambuye Chauta wadzaza mwa ine, chifukwa Chauta wandidzoza. Wandituma kuti ndikalalike uthenga wabwino kwa anthu osauka, ndi kukasangalatsa a mtima wosweka, kukalengeza kwa akapolo kuti adzalandira ufulu, ndiponso kwa am'ndende kuti adzaŵamasula.
Tsono ndikusangalala kwambiri chifukwa cha Chauta, mtima wanga ukukondwadi chifukwa cha Mulungu wanga. Pakuti Iye wandiveka zovala zachipulumutso. Wandiveka mkanjo wa chilungamo. Zinali ngati mkwati wamwamuna wavala nkhata ya maluŵa m'khosi, ndiponso ngati mkwati wamkazi wavala mikanda ya mtengo wapatali.
Monga momwe nthaka imameretsera mbeu, ndiponso monga momwe munda umakulitsira zimene adabzalamo, momwemonso Chauta adzaonetsa chilungamo ndi ulemerero wake pamaso pa anthu onse.
Wandituma kukalengeza za nthaŵi imene Chauta adzapulumutsa anthu ake ndi kulipsira adani ake. Wanditumanso kukatonthoza olira.
“Inu ndinu kuŵala kounikira anthu onse. Mudzi wokhala pamwamba pa phiri sungabisike.
Munthu sati akayatsa nyale, nkuivundikira ndi mbiya. Koma amaiika pa malo oonekera, ndipo imaunikira anthu onse amene ali m'nyumbamo.
Chomwechonso inuyo muziwonetsa kuŵala kwanu pamaso pa anthu, kuti ataona ntchito zanu zabwino azilemekeza Atate anu akumwamba.
Tsono adauza ophunzira ake kuti, “Dzinthu ndzochulukadi, achepa ndi antchito.
Nchifukwa chake mupemphe Mwini dzinthu kuti atume antchito okatuta dzinthu dzakedzo.”
Mfumuyo idzaŵayankha kuti, ‘Ndithu ndikunenetsa kuti nthaŵi iliyonse pamene munkamuchitira zimenezi wina aliyense mwa abale anga ngakhale otsika kwambiriŵa, munkachitira Ine amene.’
“Mzimu wa Chauta wadzaza mwa Ine. Wandidzoza kuti ndikalalikire amphaŵi Uthenga Wabwino. Wandituma kuti ndikalengeze kwa am'ndende kuti adzamasulidwa, ndi kwa akhungu kuti adzapenyanso. Wandituma kuti ndikaŵapatse ufulu anthu osautsidwa,
Pambuyo pake Ambuye adasankha anthu 72, naŵatuma aŵiriaŵiri kuti atsogole kupita ku mudzi uliwonse ndi ku malo aliwonse kumene Iye ankati apiteko.
Koma kumudzi kumene mukaloŵe, anthu nkupanda kukulandirani bwino, mukapite m'miseu yam'mudzimo, nkukanena kuti,
‘Tikukusansirani ngakhale fumbi la m'mudzi mwanu muno limene linamamatira ku mapazi athu. Komabe dziŵani kuti ufumu wa Mulungu wafika.’
Kunena zoona, pa tsiku lachiweruzo, Mulungu adzachitako chifundo polanga Sodomu koposa polanga mudzi umenewo.
“Uli ndi tsoka, iwe Korazini! Uli ndi tsoka, iwe Betsaida! Chifukwa zamphamvu zimene zidachitika mwa inu, achikhala zidaachitikira ku Tiro ndi ku Sidoni, bwenzi anthu ake atavala kale ziguduli nkudzithira phulusa, kuwonetsa kuti atembenukadi mtima.
Koma pa tsiku lachiweruzo, Mulungu adzachitako chifundo polanga Tiro ndi Sidoni, koposa polanga inu.
Ndipo iwe Kapernao, kodi ukuyesa kuti adzakukweza mpaka Kumwamba? Iyai, adzakutsitsa mpaka ku Malo a anthu akufa.”
Yesu adauza anthu 72 aja kuti, “Wokumverani inu, akumvera Ine amene. Wokukanani inu akukana Ine amene. Ndipo wondikana Ine, akukananso Atate amene adandituma.”
Anthu 72 aja adabwerako ndi chimwemwe nati, “Ambuye, ngakhale mizimu yoipa yomwe imatigonjera tikamailamula m'dzina lanu.”
Yesu adaŵauza kuti, “Ndidaona Satana alikugwa ngati mphezi kuchokera Kumwamba.
Ndakupatsanitu mphamvu kuti muziponda njoka ndi zinkhanira, ndi kumagonjetsa mphamvu zonse za mdani uja. Palibe kanthu kamene kangakupwetekeni.
Adaŵauza kuti, “Dzinthu ndzambiri, koma antchito ngochepa. Nchifukwa chake pemphani Mwini dzinthu kuti atume antchito kukatuta dzinthudzo.
Paja anthu amati, ‘Ikapita miyezi inai, ndiye kuti yafika nyengo yokolola.’ Koma ndithu, taonani m'mindamu, kodi simukuwona kuti mbeu zacha kale kudikira kholola?
Okhulupirira amene adabalalika aja adapita m'dziko monse akulalika Uthenga Wabwino.
Okhulupirira Khristu aja, amene anali atabalalikana chifukwa cha mazunzo omwe adabuka pa nkhani ija ya Stefano, adafika mpaka ku Fenisiya, ku Kipro, ndiponso ku Antiokeya. Sankalalika mau kwa munthu wina aliyense, koma kwa Ayuda okha.
Tsono pamene Petro adabwera ku Yerusalemu, a m'gulu lolimbikira za kuumbala adatsutsana naye.
Koma pakati pao panali ena ochokera ku Kipro ndiponso ku Kirene. Ameneŵa adafika ku Antiokeya nayamba kulankhulanso ndi Agriki nkumaŵalalikira Uthenga Wabwino wonena za Ambuye Yesu.
Ambuye ankaŵalimbikitsa, mwakuti anthu ambiri adakhulupirira natembenukira kwa Ambuye.
Mulungu adaaŵalekerera anthu pa nthaŵi imene iwo anali osadziŵa, koma tsopano akuŵalamula anthu onse ponseponse kuti atembenuke mtima.
Chifukwa adaika tsiku pamene Iye adzaweruza anthu a pa dziko lonse lapansi molungama kudzera mwa Munthu amene Iye adamsankha. Adatsimikizira anthu onse zimenezi pakuukitsa Munthuyo kwa akufa.”
Koma Mulungu adatsimikiza kuti amatikonda kwambiri, chifukwa pamene tinali ochimwabe, Khristu adatifera.
Pajatu Mzimu amene mudalandira, sakusandutsani akapolo, kuti muzikhalanso amantha ai. Koma Mzimuyo amakusandutsani ana a Mulungu, ndipo mwa mphamvu yake, popemphera kwa Mulungu timati, “Abba! Atate!”
Mzimu Woyera mwiniwakeyo ndi amene amavomerezana ndi mitima yathu kutsimikiza kuti ndife ana a Mulungu.
Ineyo ndidabzala mbeu, Apolo nkuzithirira, koma amene adazimeretsa ndi Mulungu.
Motero wobzala kapenanso wothirira sali kanthu, koma Mulungu yekha amene amameretsa, ndiye ali kanthu.
Tsono wobzala sasiyana ndi wothirira, ndipo aliyense adzalandira mphotho yake molingana ndi ntchito imene adaigwira.
Komabe ife ndife okhaokha ogwira ntchito ya Mulungu, inuyo ndinu munda wa Mulungu, ndinunso nyumba ya Mulungu.
Tiyamike Mulungu, Atate a Ambuye athu Yesu Khristu. Ndiwo Atate a chifundo ndi otilimbitsa mtima kwathunthu.
Mulungu amatilimbitsa mtima m'masautso athu onse, kuti monga momwe Iye amalimbitsira ife mtima, nafenso tithe kuŵalimbitsa mtima anzathu amene ali pakati pa masautso amitundumitundu.
Motero polalika sitidzilalika tokha, koma timalalika Yesu Khristu, kuti ndiye Ambuye. Ife ndife atumiki anu chabe chifukwa cha Yesuyo.
Musade nkhaŵa ndi kanthu kalikonse, koma m'mapemphero anu onse muzipempha Mulungu zimene zikusoŵani, ndipo nthaŵi zonse muzipemphe ndi mtima woyamika.
Pamenepo mtendere wochokera kwa Mulungu, umene uli wopitirira nzeru zonse za anthu, udzasunga bwino mitima yanu ndi maganizo anu mwa Khristu Yesu.
Chilichonse chimene mungachite, kaya nkulankhula, kaya nkugwira ntchito, muchichite m'dzina la Ambuye Yesu ndi kuthokoza Mulungu Atate kudzera mwa Iye.
Nchifukwa chake pamene sitidathenso kupirira, tidalolera kutsalira tokha ku Atene.
Ndi mtima wonse timapemphera usana ndi usiku kuti tiwonane nanunso maso ndi maso, kuti tikakwaniritse zimene zikusoŵa pakuwonetsa chikhulupiriro chanu.
Tikupempha kuti Mulungu Atate athu mwini, ndi Ambuye athu Yesu atikonzere njira yabwino kuti tidzafike kwanuko.
Ambuye akulitsirekulitsire kukondana kwanu, ndiponso chikondi chanu cha pa anthu onse, monga momwe chikondi chathu cha pa inu chikukulirakulira.
Motero Iye adzalimbitsa mitima yanu kuti idzakhale yangwiro ndi yoyera pamaso pa Mulungu Atate athu, pamene Ambuye Yesu adzabwerenso pamodzi ndi oyera ake onse.
Choncho tidatuma Timoteo, mbale wathu ndi mnzathu wogwira naye ntchito ya Mulungu yolalika Uthenga Wabwino wa Khristu. Tidamtuma kuti adzakulimbitseni mtima ndi kukukhazikitsani m'chikhulupiriro chanu,
Ndikuthokoza Khristu Yesu Ambuye athu, amene adandipatsa mphamvu pa ntchitoyi. Ndikumthokoza pondiwona wokhulupirika nandipatsa ntchito yomtumikira,
Iye adatipulumutsa, ndipo adatiitana kuti tikhale anthu ake. Sadachite zimenezi chifukwa choti ife tidaachita zabwino ai, koma chifukwa mwiniwakeyo adaazikonzeratu motero, ndiponso chifukwa mwa Khristu Yesu adatikomera mtima nthaŵi isanayambe.
Mulungutu waonetsa kukoma mtima kwake kofuna kupulumutsa anthu onse.
Kukoma mtima kwakeko kumatiphunzitsa kusiya moyo wosalemekeza Mulungu, ndiponso zilakolako za dziko lapansi. Kumatiphunzitsa kuti moyo wathu pansi pano ukhale wodziletsa, wolungama ndi wolemekeza Mulungu.
Tizikumbukirana kuti tilimbikitsane kukondana ndi kuchita ntchito zabwino.
Tisamakhalakhala ku misonkhano yathu, monga adazoloŵera ena, koma ife tizilimbitsana mtima, makamaka poona kuti tsiku la Ambuye likuyandikira.
Koma inu ndinu fuko losankhidwa, ansembe achifumu, mtundu wopatulika, anthu akeake a Mulungu. Adakusankhani kuti mukalalike ntchito zamphamvu za Iye amene adakuitanani kuti mutuluke mu mdima, mukaloŵe m'kuŵala kwake kodabwitsa.
koma muzilemekeza Khristu m'mitima mwanu ngati Mbuye wanu. Khalani okonzeka nthaŵi iliyonse kuŵayankha mofatsa ndi mwaulemu anthu okufunsani za zimene mumayembekeza.
Chimene tidachiwona ndi kuchimva, tikukulalikirani, kuti inunso mukhale a mtima umodzi ndi ife. Kuyanjana kwathu tikuyanjana ndi Atate, ndiponso ndi Mwana wao, Yesu Khristu.
Chifukwa aliyense amene ali mwana wa Mulungu, amagonjetsa dziko lapansi. Chimene timagonjetsera dziko lapansilo ndi chikhulupiriro chathu.
Ndani amagonjetsa dziko lapansi? Amaligonjetsa si wina ai, koma wokhulupirira kuti Yesu ndi Mwana wa Mulungu.
Mulungu waika nyimbo yatsopano m'kamwa mwanga, nyimbo yake yotamanda Iye. Anthu ambiri adzaona zimenezi ndipo adzaopa, nadzakhulupirira Chauta.
Zamoyo zonse zidzakuthokozani, Inu Chauta, anthu anu onse oyera mtima adzakutamandani.
Adzalankhula za ulemerero wa ufumu wanu, adzasimba za mphamvu zanu,
kuti adziŵitse anthu onse za ntchito zanu zamphamvu, kutinso asimbe za ulemerero ndi za ufumu wanu waukulu.
Mthenga wabwino wochokera ku dziko lakutali uli ngati madzi ozizira kwa munthu waludzu.
Pa phiri ili la Ziyoni Chauta Wamphamvuzonse adzakonzera anthu a mitundu yonse phwando la zakudya zokoma ndi la vinyo wabwino, phwando la nyama yonona ndi la vinyo amene wafikapo.
Pa phiri limeneli adzachotsa chisoni chimene chaphimba anthu a mitundu yonse, chimene chakuta mafuko onse.
Chauta adzathetsa imfa mpaka muyaya, adzapukuta misozi m'maso mwa aliyense, ndipo adzachotsa manyazi a anthu ake pa dziko lonse lapansi. Watero Chauta.
Chautayo akunena kuti, “Nchinthu chochepa kwambiri kuti ukhale mtumiki wanga, kuti udzutse mafuko a Yakobe ndi kuŵabweza kwao Aisraele amene adapulumuka. Ndidzakusandutsa kuŵala kounikira mitundu ina ya anthu, kuti chipulumutso changa chikafike mpaka ku mathero a dziko lapansi.”
“Ndikunenetsanso kuti aŵiri mwa inu mutavomerezana pansi pano popempha kanthu kalikonse, Atate anga akumwamba adzakupatsani.
Apo Yesu adaitana mwana namuimiritsa pakati pao,
Pajatu pamene aŵiri kapena atatu asonkhana m'dzina langa, Ineyo ndili nao pomwepo.”
Yesu adapitiriza mau kuti, “Ndithu ndikunenetsa kuti momwemonso Kumwamba kudzakhala chimwemwe chifukwa cha munthu mmodzi wochimwa amene watembenuka mtima, kuposa anthu olungama 99 amene alibe chifukwa chotembenukira mtima.”
Mulungutu adaŵakonda kwambiri anthu a pa dziko lonse lapansi. Anali naye Mwana mmodzi yekha, komabe adampereka kuti aliyense wokhulupirira Iyeyo asatayike, koma akhale ndi moyo wosatha.
Ndili nazo nkhosa zina zimene sizili za m'khola lino. Zimenezonso ndiyenera kuzikusa. Zidzamva mau anga, ndipo padzakhala gulu limodzi mbusa wakenso mmodzi.
Tsono abale, popeza kuti Mulungu watichitira chifundo chachikulu chotere, ndikukupemphani kuti mupereke matupi anu omwe kuti akhale nsembe yamoyo, yopatulika, ndi yokondwetsa Mulungu. Imeneyi ikhale njira yanu yopembedzera Mulungu mwauzimu.
Muzikondana kwenikweni monga abale, ndipo muzichita ngati kupikisana poonetsana ulemu.
Potumikira Ambuye, changu chanu chisazilale, koma chikhalebe choyaka.
Muzikhala okondwa chifukwa cha chiyembekezo chanu. Muzipirira pakati pa masautso, ndipo muzipemphera nthaŵi zonse.
Muzipereka zothandiza akhristu anzanu osoŵa, ndipo muziyesetsa kulandira alendo mokondwa.
Pemphani Mulungu kuti aŵadalitse amene amakuzunzani. Ndithu, pemphani kuti aŵadalitse, osaŵatemberera ai.
Muzikondwa nawo amene akukondwa, muzilira nawo amene akulira.
Muzimvana bwino, ndipo musamadzikweze, koma muziyanjana nawo anthu wamba. Musamadziyese anzeru.
Munthu akakuchitani choipa, musamubwezere choipa. Yesani kuchita zimene anthu onse amaziwona kuti nzabwino.
Ngati nkotheka, khalani ndi mtendere ndi anthu onse, monga momwe mungathere.
Okondedwa anga, musabwezere choipa, koma alekeni, mkwiyo wa Mulungu ndiwo uŵalange. Paja Malembo akuti, “Kulipsira nkwanga. Ndidzaŵalanga ndine, akutero Chauta.”
Musamatsanzira makhalidwe a anthu odalira zapansipano, koma Mulungu asinthe moyo wanu wonse pakukupatsani mitima yatsopano. Pamenepo mudzatha kudziŵa zimene Mulungu afuna, ndipo mudzazindikira zimene zili zabwino, zangwiro ndi zomkondwetsa.
Mau onena za imfa ya Khristu pa mtanda ndi chinthu chopusa kwa anthu amene akutayika, koma kwa ife amene tili pa njira ya chipulumutso, mauwo ndi mphamvu ya Mulungu.
Chikondi cha Khristu ndicho chimatiwongolera mokakamiza, popeza kuti tikudziŵa mosakayika konse kuti Munthu mmodzi adafera anthu onse, ndiye kuti pamenepo onse adafa.
Iye adafera anthu onse, kuti amene ali ndi moyo, asakhalenso ndi moyo wofuna kungodzikondweretsa okha, koma azikondweretsa Iye amene adaŵafera, nauka kwa akufa chifukwa cha iwowo.
Inu abale, Mulungu adakuitanani kuti mukhale mfulu. Koma chenjerani kuti ufulu wanu umenewu usapatse mpata khalidwe lanu lokonda zoipa. Kwenikweni muzitumikirana mwachikondi.
Nchifukwa chake ine, womangidwa m'ndende chifukwa chotumikira Ambuye, ndikukupemphani kuti, chifukwa Mulungu adakuitanani, muziyenda moyenerana ndi kuitanidwako.
Iye amene adaatsika, ndi yemweyo amene adakwera, nabzola Kumwamba konse, kuti zinthu zonse zikhale zodzaza ndi Iye.
Iyeyu ndiye amene “adapereka mphatso kwa anthu.” Mphatso zake zinali zakuti ena akhale atumwi, ena aneneri, ena alaliki, ena abusa ndi aphunzitsi.
Ntchito yao inali yakuti akonzeretu anthu a Mulungu kuti akagwire ntchito yotumikira, ndi kulimbitsa Mpingo umene uli thupi la Khristu.
Motero potsiriza, tonse tidzafika ku umodzi umene umapezeka pakukhulupirira, ndiponso pakudziŵa Mwana wa Mulungu. Pamenepo tidzakhwima ndithu, ndi kufika pa msinkhu wathunthu wa Khristu.
Sitidzakhalanso ngati ana akhanda ogwedezekagwedezeka ndi mafunde, ndiponso otengekatengeka ndi mphepo iliyonse ya zophunzitsa za anthu onyenga amene amasokeretsa anthu ndi kuchenjera kwao
Kwenikwenitu pakulankhula zoona ndi mtima wachikondi, tizikula pa zonse mwa Khristu. Iye ndiye mutu,
umene umalamula thupi lonse, ndi kulilumikiza pamodzi ndi mfundo zake zonse. Motero chiwalo chilichonse chimagwira ntchito yake moyenera, ndipo thupi lonse limakula ndi kudzilimbitsa ndi chikondi.
Tsono m'dzina la Ambuye ndikukuuzani, ndipo ndikunenetsa, kuti musayendenso monga amachitira akunja potsata maganizo ao achabe.
Nzeru zao zidachita chidima, sangalandire nao konse moyo wa Mulungu chifukwa cha umbuli umene udadza mwa iwo kaamba ka kuuma mtima kwao.
Mitima yao idaludzulala ndipo adangodzipereka ku zonyansa, kuti azichita zoipa zilizonse mosadziletsa.
Muzikhala odzichepetsa, ofatsa ndi opirira nthaŵi zonse. Muzilezerana mtima mwachikondi,
Koma umu si m'mene inu mudaphunzirira za Khristu ai,
ngatitu mudamva za Iyeyo, ngatinso mudaphunzitsidwa za Iye, motsata choona chimene chili mwa Yesu.
Mudaphunzira kuti muleke mayendedwe anu akale, muvule moyo wanu wakale uja umene unkadziwononga ndi zilakolako zake zonyenga.
Mtima wanu, umene uli gwero la maganizo anu, usanduke watsopano.
Ndipo muvale moyo watsopano, umene Mulungu adaulenga, wofanafana naye. Apo mudzakhala olungama ndi oyera mtima kwenikweni.
Tsono lekani kunama. Aliyense azilankhula zoona zokhazokha ndi mkhristu mnzake, pakuti tonse pamodzi mogwirizana ndife ziwalo za thupi la Khristu.
Inde mwina nkupsa mtima, koma musachimwe, ndipo musalole kuti dzuŵa likuloŵereni muli chikwiyire.
Musampatse mpata Satana woti akugwetseni.
Amene ankaba, asabenso, koma makamaka azigwira ntchito kolimba ndi kumachita zolungama ndi manja ake, kuti akhale nkanthu kopatsa osoŵa.
M'kamwa mwanu musatuluke mau aliwonse oipa, koma muzinena mau okhaokha abwino ndi olimbitsa mtima monga kungafunikire, kuti mupindulitse anzanu omva mau anuwo.
ndipo muziyesetsa kusunga umodzi mwa Mzimu Woyera pa kulunzana mu mtendere.
Chachikulu nchakuti mayendedwe anu akhale oyenerana ndi Uthenga Wabwino wonena za Khristu. Ngakhale ndibwere kudzakuwonani, kapena ndikhale kutali, ndikufuna kumva kuti mukulimbika ndi mtima umodzi. Ndikufunanso kumva kuti momvana ndi mothandizana mukumenya nkhondo chifukwa chokhulupirira Uthenga Wabwino,
Abale, simukumbukira nanga kuti tinkagwira ntchito kwambiri mpaka kutopa? Monse muja tinkakulalikirani Uthenga Wabwino wa Mulungu, tinkagwira ntchito zamanja usana ndi usiku, kuwopa kuti tingavutitse wina aliyense mwa inu.
Mulungu adakuitanirani zimenezi kudzera mwa Uthenga Wabwino umene tidakulalikirani. Adakuitanani kuti mulandire nao ulemerero wa Ambuye athu Yesu Khristu.
Uzimenya nkhondo yabwino ya kusunga chikhulupiriro, mpaka ukalandire moyo wosatha. Paja Mulungu adakuitanira zimenezi, ndipo udavomera bwino chikhulupiriro chako pamaso pa mboni zambiri.
Umve nao zoŵaŵa monga msilikali wabwino wa Khristu Yesu.
Msilikali amene akumenya nkhondo sasamalako ntchito zakumudzi, chifukwa iye amangofuna kukondweretsa mkulu wa ankhondo.
Koma pamenepo Mulungu Mpulumutsi wathu adaonetsa kukoma kwake ndiponso chifundo chokonda anthu.
Choncho adatipulumutsa osati chifukwa cha ntchito zolungama zimene ife tidaachita, koma mwa chifundo chake pakutisambitsa. Adatisambitsa mwa Mzimu Woyera pakutibadwitsa kwatsopano ndi kutipatsa moyo watsopano.
Mwa Yesu Khristu, Mpulumutsi wathu, Mulungu adatipatsa Mzimu Woyerayo moolowa manja.
Adachita zimenezi, kuti mwa kukoma mtima kwake tisanduke olungama pamaso pake, ndipo tikalandire moyo wosatha umene tikuuyembekeza.
Popeza kuti ponse pozungulira pali mboni zambirimbiri chotere, tiyeni tichotse kalikonse kotichedwetsa, makamaka tchimo limene limatikangamira, ndipo tithamange ndi khama mpikisano umene tayambawu.
Abale anga, wina mwa inu akasokera pa kusiya choona, mnzake nkumubweza,
Chuma chanu chaola, ndipo njenjete zadya zovala zanu.
dziŵani kuti amene adzabweza munthu wochimwa ku njira yake yosokera, adzapulumutsa moyo wa munthuyo ku imfa, ndipo chifukwa cha iye machimo ochuluka adzakhululukidwa.
Aliyense mphatso imene adalandira kwa Mulungu azitumikira nayo anzake. Mukhale ngati akapitao ogwiritsa bwino ntchito mphatso zamitundumitundu zochokera kwa Mulungu.
Bwerani mudzamve, inu nonse amene opembedza Mulungu, ndidzakusimbireni zimene Iye wandichitira.
Dzina lake lisaiŵalike konse, mbiri yake ikhalepobe monga momwe limakhalira dzuŵa. Anthu alandire madalitso chifukwa cha iyo, a mitundu yonse aitche yodala.
Tsiku limenelo mudzati: “Thokozani Chauta, tamandani dzina lake. Mulengeze ntchito zake pakati pa mitundu ya anthu, mulalike kuti dzina lake ndi lopambana.
“Imbirani Chauta nyimbo zotamanda, pakuti wachita zazikulu. Zimenezi zidziŵike pa dziko lonse lapansi.
Wandituma kuti ndiŵakonzere zofunika olira a ku Ziyoni, ndiye kuti ndiŵapatse maluŵa achisangalalo m'malo mwa phulusa lachisoni, ndiŵapatse mafuta osonyeza kukondwa m'malo mwa kulira, ndiŵapatse chovala cha chikondwerero m'malo mwa kutaya mtima. Tsono adzatchedwa mitengo yamphamvu yachilungamo, yoibzala Chauta, kuti Iye mwini apezepo ulemu.
Nchifukwa chake inu pitani kwa anthu a mitundu yonse, mukaŵasandutse ophunzira anga. Muzikaŵabatiza m'dzina la Atate, ndi la Mwana ndi la Mzimu Woyera.
Mwadzidzidzi kudachita chivomezi chachikulu. Ndiye kuti mngelo wa Ambuye adaatsika kuchokera Kumwamba, nadzagubuduza chimwala chija, nkukhalapo.
Muzikaŵaphunzitsa kusunga zonse zimene Ine ndidakulamulani. Ndipo Ineyo ndili nanu masiku onse, mpaka kutha kwa dziko lino lapansi.”
