Potuluka M'Babulo

Adzalamulira, by Tianna (Mallett) Williams

 

Lero m'mawa nditadzuka, "mawu tsopano" mumtima mwanga anali kupeza cholembedwa kuchokera m'mbuyomu chokhudza "kutuluka ku Babulo." Ndapeza iyi, idasindikizidwa koyamba zaka zitatu zapitazo pa Okutobala 4, 2017! Mawu omwe ali mu izi ndi zonse zomwe zili mumtima mwanga nthawi ino, kuphatikiza Lemba loyambira kuchokera kwa Yeremiya. Ndasintha ndi maulalo apano. Ndikupemphera kuti izi zikhala zomangirira, zolimbikitsa, komanso zovuta kwa inu monga zilili kwa ine mmawa uno Lamlungu… Kumbukirani, ndinu okondedwa.

 

APO ndi nthawi zomwe mawu a Yeremiya adalasa moyo wanga ngati kuti ndi anga. Sabata ino ndi imodzi mwazochitika. 

Nthawi zonse ndikalankhula, ndiyenera kufuula, ndimalalikira zachiwawa ndi mkwiyo; Mawu a Ambuye andibweretsera chitonzo ndi kunyozedwa tsiku lonse. Ndikunena kuti sindidzamutchula, sindidzalankhulanso m'dzina lake. Komano zili ngati moto ukuyaka mumtima mwanga, womangidwa m'mafupa anga; Ndatopa ndikuletsa, sindingathe! (Yeremiya 20: 7-9) 

Ngati muli ndi mtima wamtundu uliwonse, ndiye kuti inunso mukudandaula chifukwa cha zochitika zomwe zikuchitika padziko lonse lapansi. Kusefukira kwa madzi koopsa ku Asia komwe kwapha anthu masauzande ambiri… kuyeretsa mafuko ku Middle East… mphepo zamkuntho ku Atlantic… zoopsa zankhondo ku Koreas… zigawenga (ndi zipolowe) ku North America ndi Europe. Kodi mawu olembedwa kumapeto kwa Bukhu la Chivumbulutso — buku lomwe tikuwoneka kuti tikukhala munthawi yeniyeni — sakuchitanso changu?

Mzimu ndi mkwatibwi anena, Bwera. Lolani womverayo anene kuti, “Bwera.” Aliyense wakumva ludzu abwere, ndipo amene adzafune alandire mphatso ya madzi opatsa moyo… Idzani, Ambuye Yesu! (Ciy. 22:17, 20)

Zili ngati kuti St. John amayembekezera kulakalaka ndi ludzu lake choonadi, kukongola, ndi ubwino zomwe pamapeto pake zitha kupambana m'badwo wamtsogolo womwe "Anasinthanitsa chowonadi cha Mulungu ndi bodza, napembedza cholengedwa m'malo mwa amene adachipanga." ^[1]Rom 1: 25 Komabe, monga ndidanenera Chilango Choipitsitsa, Ichi ndi chiyambi chabe cha masautso omwe Kumwamba adachenjeza kale kuti umunthu uwu udzatuta chifukwa chokana Yesu Khristu ndi Uthenga Wake Wabwino. Tikuzichita tokha! Pakuti Uthenga Wabwino suli malingaliro okondeka, malingaliro ena pakati pa ambiri. M'malo mwake, ndi mapu aumulungu operekedwa ndi Mlengi kuti atsogolere chilengedwe Chake kuchokera ku mphamvu ya uchimo ndi imfa kupita ku ufulu. Ndi zenizeni! Si zopeka! Kumwamba kulidi koona! Gahena ndi weniweni! angelo ndipo ziwanda zilidi zenizeni! M'badwo uno ukufunika bwanji kuwona nkhope ya zoipa tisanadzichepetse ndikufuulira Mulungu, "Yesu atithandize! Yesu atipulumutse! Tikukufunikiradi! ”? 

Zachisoni kunena, kutali kwambiri. 

 

BABULO NDI KUKHALA

Zomwe tikuchitira umboni, abale ndi alongo, ndiye chiyambi cha kugwa kwa Babulo, komwe Papa Benedict akufotokoza kuti…

… Chizindikiro cha mizinda ikuluikulu yopanda zipembedzo… Palibe chisangalalo chomwe chimakhala chokwanira, ndipo kuchuluka kwa zakumwa zoledzeretsa kumakhala chiwawa chomwe chimagawaniza zigawo zonse - ndipo zonsezi chifukwa cha kusamvetsetsa kwa ufulu komwe kumafooketsa ufulu wa munthu ndipo pamapeto pake kumakuwononga. —PAPA BENEDICT XVI, Pamwambo wa Moni wa Khrisimasi, Disembala 20, 2010; http://www.vatican.va/

In Chinsinsi Babulo, Kugwa kwa Chinsinsi Babulo (ndi Kukula Kwakudza kwa America), Ndinafotokozera mbiri yovuta yaku America komanso gawo lake pakatikati pa malingaliro azachinyengo osokoneza Chikhristu ndi ulamuliro wamitundu. Kudzera mwa "ma demokalase owunikiridwa" pakhoza kufalikira kukhulupirira kuti kulibe Mulungu ndi kukonda chuma — "Zolakwika za Russia"- monga Dona Wathu wa Fatima adawatchulira. Zipatso zimafanana ndi Babulo, monga tafotokozera mu Chivumbulutso:

Iye wakhala malo okhalamo ziwanda, malo okhalamo mizimu yoyipa, malo okhalamo mbalame zonse zoipa ndi zodana; pakuti amitundu onse amwa vinyo wa chilakolako chake chonyansa, ndipo mafumu adziko lapansi achita naye chigololo, ndipo amalonda adziko lapansi alemera ndi chuma chakukhumba kwake. (Chiv 18: 2-3)

Ndi kangati, olamulira mwankhanza atagwetsedwa kapena amkati agawana nkhani zawo, timapeza kuti, m'malo modana ndi chikhalidwe chakumadzulo monga amati, atsogoleri achinyengowa achita naye chigololo! Ali ndi adalowetsa chuma chake, zolaula, zachiwerewere, komanso umbombo.

Nanga bwanji ifeyo? Nanga inu ndi ine? Kodi tikutsatira Mfumu ya mafumu, kapena ifenso, tikumwa vinyo wa zilakolako zosayera zomwe zikusefukira mumsewu ndi nyumba zonse kudzera intaneti-the “Fano la chirombo”?

“Zizindikiro za nthawi” zimafuna kuti aliyense wa ife apende chikumbumtima, kuyambira bishopu mpaka munthu wamba. Izi ndi nthawi zovuta zomwe zimafuna kuyankhidwa mozama - osati nkhawa ndi kuyankha mwamantha - koma moona mtima, modzichepetsa, komanso wodalirika. Pakuti izi ndi zomwe Mulungu akunena kwa ife amene tikukhala mumthunzi wa Babulo nthawi ili:

Chokani kwa iye, anthu anga, kuti musayanjane ndi machimo ake, kuti mungalandire nawo miliri yake; pakuti machimo ake aunjikana kufikira kumwamba, ndipo Mulungu akumbukira zolakwa zake. (Chiv 18: 4-5)

Mulungu amakumbukira zolakwa zake chifukwa chomwe Babulo alili osati kulapa kwa iwo. 

Ambuye ndi wachifundo ndi wachisomo, wosakwiya msanga ndi wachikondi chochuluka… monga momwe kum'mawa kuli kumadzulo, momwemonso amatichotsera zolakwa zathu. (Masalmo 103: 8-12)

Machimo athu achotsedwa tikalapa, ndiye! Kupanda kutero, chilungamo chimafuna kuti Mulungu adzaweruze woipa kulira kwa osauka. Ndipo mfuu imeneyo yakula motani! 

 

Kutembenukira mkati

Yesu anati, 

Aliyense amene akhulupilira mwa ine, monga malembo akunenera kuti: 'Mitsinje yamadzi amoyo idzatuluka mkati mwake.' (Yohane 7:38)

Ena alemba, kudabwa, ndikufuula, “Kodi chiwonongeko chonsechi chidzatha liti? Tipeza liti? ” Yankho ndilakuti zitha liti amuna adamwa kukhuta kwa kusamvera:^[2]cf. Kudzala Ndi Tchimo: Zoipa Ziyenera Kudziwononga

Udzalandire chikho ichi cha vinyo wophulika m'manja mwanga, kuti amwe mitundu yonse imene ndidzakutumizako. Adzamwa, ndi kusungunuka, ndi misala; chifukwa cha lupanga ndidzatumiza pakati pawo. (Yeremiya 25: 15-16)

Ndipo, kodi Atate samapatsa anthu chikho cha chifundo tsiku ndi tsiku pamaguwa amatchalitchi athu? Apo, Yesu amadzipangitsa yekha kupezeka kwa ife, Thupi, Mzimu, ndi Umulungu monga chizindikiro cha chikondi, chifundo, ndi chikhumbo chake choyanjanitsa umunthu, ngakhale. Ngakhale tsopano! Pamenepo, mu zikwi zambiri za mipingo yopanda anthu Kumadzulo, kuseri kwa chophimba cha Kachisi, Yesu akufuula, “Ndimva ludzu!” ^[3]John 19: 28

Ndimva ludzu. Ndikumva ludzu la chipulumutso cha miyoyo. Ndithandizeni, Mwana wanga, kupulumutsa miyoyo. Agwirizane ndi masautso anu ku Mtima Wanga ndi kuwapereka kwa Atate wakumwamba kwa ochimwa. —Yesu kwa St. Faustina, Chifundo Cha Mulungu M'moyo Wanga, Zolemba; n. 1032

Kodi mukuwona chifukwa chake ndikukulemberani lero, pambuyo pa masabata angapo apitawa pomwe ndidayang'ana kwambiri pa Cross? Yesu amafuna kuzunzika kwanu ndi kudzipereka kwanu kuposa kale lonse chifukwa cha umunthu wosaukawu. Koma tingampatse bwanji Yesu chilichonse pokhapokha ngati tili ogwirizana naye? Pokhapokha ife tokha titatero “Kutuluka m'Babulo”? 

Yense wakukhala mwa Ine, ndi Ine mwa iye, adzabala chipatso chambiri, chifukwa popanda Ine simungathe kuchita kanthu. (Juwau 15: 5)

Koma kodi ambirife timakhalabe kuti? Ndi mphesa uti womwe talumikizidwa nawo — Yesu, kapena mafoni athu? Kapena monga Woyera Woyera wina ananenera, "Kodi, Mkhristu, ukuchita ndi nthawi yako?" Kwa ambiri amakakamira kufikira ukadaulo pang'ono pang'ono patsiku; amafufuza kudzera pa Facebook ndi Instagram kufunafuna wina woti adzaze chete; amasanthula TV akuyembekeza kuti china chake chithandiza kunyong'onyeka kwawo; Amasewera pa intaneti kuti aganizire, zogonana, kapena zinthu, kuyesera kuti apeze mankhwala miyoyo yawo yamtendere…. Koma palibe chilichonse cha izi chomwe chingapereke Mtsinje wa Madzi Amoyo omwe Yesu adalankhula za… chifukwa Wake ndi mtendere "Dziko lino silingapereke." ^[4]onani. Juwau 14:27  Ndipokhapo pamene tidzafika kwa Iye “monga tiana” momvera, m'pemphero, m'ma Sakramenti, pomwe tidzayamba kukhala zotengera za Madzi Amoyo kwa dziko lapansi. Tiyenera kumwa kuchokera pachitsime tisanadziwe zomwe tikupereka.

 

MACHENJEZO A CHIFUNDO

Inde, kulemba uku ndi chenjezo! Tsopano tikuwona zochitika zikuunjikana, wina ndi mnzake monga kuwonongeka kwa sitima… monga Yesu adanena kuti zitero, malinga ndi wamasomphenya wina waku America:

Ngakhale ndiyenera kupewetsa maso anga ku "ziwawa zonse ndi mkwiyo" zomwe ndimawona kuchokera pachithunzi changa pakhoma, apo ayi zisokoneza mtendere wanga womwe! Yesu adatiwuza kuti tiwone zizindikiritso za nthawi ino, inde, komanso anati:

Watch ndipo pempherani kuti musayesedwe. Mzimu ndi wofunitsitsa koma thupi ndi lofooka. (Maliko 14:38)

Tiyenera kupemphera! Tiyenera kusiya kuyang'ana kunja kwambiri ndi kusefukira kwa zonyansa ndi chiwonongeko zomwe Satana akusasira padziko lapansi, ndikuyang'ana mkatikati momwe Mumakhala Utatu Woyera. Ganizirani za Yesu, osati zoipa. Tiyenera kupita komwe mtendere, chisomo, ndi machiritso amatiyembekezera, ngakhale chiwonongeko chikuchuluka. Ndipo Yesu amapezeka mu Ukalisitiya komanso m'mitima ya okhulupirira. 

Dziyeseni nokha kuti muwone ngati mukukhala mchikhulupiriro. Dziyeseni nokha. Kodi simudziwa kuti Yesu Khristu ali mwa inu? - pokhapokha ngati mwalephera mayeso. (2 Akor. 13: 5)

Popeza kuti Yehova ndiye pothawirapo pako, ndipo Wam'mwambamwamba ndiye malo ako achitetezo, palibe choipa chidzakugwera, ndipo tsoka silidzayandikira hema wako. (onani Salmo 91)

Pamenepo, pothawirapo pamaso pa Mulungu, akufuna kukusambitsani mu machiritso, mphamvu, ndi nyonga ya nthawi zino.

Kudziwa kudikirira, ngakhale kupirira mayesero moleza mtima, ndikofunikira kuti wokhulupirira athe "kulandira zomwe walonjezedwa" (Ahe. 10:36) —PAPA BENEDICT XVI, mabuku nganyaki ngakulembeka Lankhulani Salvi (Opulumutsidwa Ndi Chiyembekezo), n. Zamgululi

Timadikira bwanji? Pempherani, pempherani, pempherani. Kupemphera ndiko kudikira mwauzimu; kudikira kwauzimu ndiko chikhulupiriro; ndipo chikhulupiriro chimasuntha mapiri.

Ndi nthawi, ndipo nthawi yotuluka mu Babulo ndiyo tsopano, pakuti makoma ake ayamba kugwa.  

Mbiri, sikuti, ili yokha m'manja mwa mphamvu zakuda, mwayi kapena zosankha za anthu. Pa kutulutsa mphamvu zoyipa, kusokonekera kwa Satana, komanso kuwonekera kwa miliri ndi zoyipa zambiri, Ambuye adzauka, wotsutsa wamkulu wazomwe zachitika m'mbiri. Amatsogolera mbiri mwanzeru kumayambiriro kwa kumwamba kwatsopano ndi dziko lapansi latsopano, zomwe zimaimbidwa kumapeto kwa Bukhu pansi pa chithunzi cha Yerusalemu watsopano (onani Chivumbulutso 21-22). —PAPA BENEDICT XVI, Omvera Onse, May 11, 2005
