Munthu sapulumuka chifukwa cha ntchito zake, kuwopa kuti angamanyade. Mulungu ndiye adatipanga. Adatilenga mwa Khristu Yesu kuti moyo wathu ukhale wogwira ntchito zabwino zimene iye adakonzeratu kuti tizichite (Aefeso 2: 8-10).
Atsogoleri otumikira amakondwera mchisomo cha Mulungu cha kwa iwo. Amadabwa pa ukoma wake powaitana iwo kuti atsogolere ena. Ndipo amaphunzira kutanamphitsa chisomo cha Mulungu kwa omwe akuwatsogolera. Kodi atsogoleri otumikira amagawana bwanji chisomo ndi omwe akuwatsatira?

Pomwe atsogoleri otumikira ayang’ana pa owatsatira, samangowona chabe a ntchito omwe adzawathandiza kukwaniritsa masomphenya awo, amaona atsogoleri a mtsogolo mwa chisomo cha Mulungu! Amaona kuthekera. Amaona tsogolo. Samangowona zolephera. Amaona zomwe zingachitike ndi mphamvu ya chisomo. Amaona azimai ndi azibambo pomwe chisomo cha Mulungu chingagwirepo ntchito kuti akachite chomwe  ‘adawakonzekeretseratu’ kuti akachite. Atsogoleri otumikira amaona ena kudzera mmaso a chisomo cha Mulungu.

Atsogoleri otumikira aphunzira kuti akufunikira chisomo cha Mulungu mmiyoyo yawo, choncho sadabwitsika pomwe owatsatira akufuna chisomo!  Amadziona okha ngati momwe Paulo adafotokozera  mu chaputala chotsatira cha Aefeso:
Umene adandikhalitsa mtumiki wake monga mwa mphatso ya chisomo cha Mulungu, chimene adandipatsa ine, monga mwa machitidwe a mphamvu yake. Kwa ine wochepa ndi wochepetsetsa wa onse woyera mtima adandipatsa chisomo ichi ndilalikire kwa amitundu chuma chosalondoleka cha Khristu (Aefeso 3: 7-8)
Popeza atsogoleri otumikira aphunzira kupeza umunthu wawo mu chisomo cha Mulungu osati mu ntchito zawo, amayembekezera kuti owatsatira adzafunanso chisomo.  

Atsogoleri otumikira amatanamphitsa chisomo kwa omwe amatsatira

Atsogoleri omwe sadakumanepo ndi chisomo cha Mulungu amavutika kuchita zabwino ndi mphamvu zawo. Amaziyeza okha kupyolera mkuchita kwawo. Ndipo amachita chimodzimodzi ndi owatsatira. Amaloza zala zotsutsa, chiweruzo  ndi manyazi. Amawerenga buku lolemba momwe zinthu ziyenera kukhalira mokuwa ndi kulemba mzere kunsi kwa malamulo omwe aphwanyidwa! Samavomereza kulephera wawo.
Atsogoleri otumikira amadziwa kuti akufunikira chisomo  ndipo amatanamphitsa ichi kwa iwo omwe akuwatsatira. Atsogoleri otumikira samenya owatsatira awo ndi mndandanda wa  ‘zoti muchite ndi zoti musachite’! samagwiritsa ntchito manyazi polamulira khalidwe la ena. Amaitana ena kuti awone chisomo chopambana cha Mulungu.
Chisomo chimalola mtsogoleri otumikira kukhululuka zolakwika za otsatira. Chisomo chimalola mtsogoleri otumikira kunena, ‘ndikudziwa walephera, inenso ndinatero. Chisomo cha Mulungu chikuthandiza kuchita bwino.’ Chisomo chamalola mtsogoleri otumikira kupereka mwayi wachiwiri.
Ichi sichitanthauza kuti palibe nthawi yomwe mtsogoleri ayenera kukonza, kudzudzula kapena kumasula wotsatira. Koma zikutanthawuza kuti liwu la pamwamba kwambiri lidzakhala lowonetsera chisomo. Popeza akudziwa kuti akufunukira chisomo, atsogoleri otumikira amaperekanso chisomo kwa ena. Atsogoleri otumikira amatsogolera ndi chisomo pogawana chisomo cha Mulungu.
Kugawana chisomo kumawumba kopambana momwe timatsogolelera. Atsogoleri otumikira amaona utsogoleri  monga iye wochimwa opulumutsidwa mwa chisomo, wotsogolera wochimwa wina yemwe akufunikira chisomo chomwecho. Atsogoleri otumikira amalandira chisomo cha Mulungu, amaphunzira kukhala mmenemo, ndipo kenako amagawana ndi omwe akuwatsogolera. Amakhala ngati Yesu, atsogoleri ‘odzala ndi chisomo.’

Zina zomwe tingalingalirepo ndi kukambirana

  • Pamene omwe akunditsatira alakwitsa, momwe ndilili ndimachita bwanji? Kodi zimaonetsera chisomo? Kodi ndimathandiza ena akalakwitsa munjira yomwe ndimafuna kuti Mulungu andithandize ndikalakwitsa?
  • Kodi onditsatira angandifotokoze ine ngati mtsogoleri  ‘odzala ndi chisomo’? Chifukwa chiyani kapena chifukwa chiyani ayi? Ndingachite chiyani kuti mochuluka ndikhale ngati Yesu mu gawo ili?

Kufikira nthawi ina, Ine wanu wa paulendo,
