Apo inu muli nazo izo kachiwiri! Nsomba ija! Mudzaupezanso kulikonse! Chabwino, kulikonse. Makamaka pamagalimoto. Kumbuyo kwa magalimoto, kunena molondola. Panjira - pamenepo mukuwona chizindikiro cha nsomba. Kodi chikuyimira chiani, nsomba ija? Kodi pali amene angandiuze tanthauzo la chinthuchi?
Mu Luka chaputala 5: 1-9, timawerenga zakugwidwa kwa nsomba mozizwitsa:
Tsiku lina pamene Yesu anali kuyimirira m'mbali mwa nyanja ya Genesarete, anthu anali kumuzungulira iye ndikumvetsera mawu a Mulungu. Anawona pamphepete mwa madzi mabwato awiri, otsalira pamenepo ndi asodzi, omwe anali kutsuka maukonde awo.3Anakwera ngalawa imodzi ya Simoni, ndipo anamupempha kuti ayime pang'ono kuchokera kumtunda. Ndipo adakhala pansi naphunzitsa anthu ali m'ngalawa.
4Atatsiriza kulankhula, anati kwa Simoni, Ponya m intomadzi akuya, ndipo ponya makoka kuti muphe nsomba.
5Simoni anayankha, Master, tagwira ntchito molimbika usiku wonse ndipo sitinagwire kalikonse. Koma chifukwa wanena, nditsitsa maukonde.
6Atachita izi, anagwira nsomba zochuluka zedi mwakuti maukonde awo anayamba kutha.7Ndipo anakodola anzawo amene anali m'ngalawa ina kuti adzawathandize, ndipo anadza nadzaza ngalawa zonse ziwiri, motero kuti zinayamba kumira.
8Simoni Petro pakuona izi, anagwada pa mawondo a Yesu nati, Choka, Ambuye; Ndine munthu wochimwa!9Pakuti iye ndi anzake onse adazizwa ndi nsomba zomwe adazitola,
Nsomba zachikhristu
Mukundiuza chiyani? Kodi nsomba imeneyo ndi chizindikiro chachikhristu? Palibe bulu amene angaganize kuti izi ndi zoona! Akhristu ndi nsomba, zikukhudzana bwanji? Kapena kodi chigumula chibwerera posachedwa; maere onse adzakhala opanda kanthu. Ayi? Nanga bwanji? Kodi akhristu nthawi zina amati blub-blub-blub?
O ayi! Simukufuna kundiuza kuti simukudziwa ndendende inunso. Kodi ndi zoona? Kodi Akhristu ambiri sadziwa tanthauzo la nsombayo? Ndiye nthawi yakwana kuti wina afotokoze izi!
Tanthauzo la nsomba
Chabwino, nayi malongosoledwe anga. Ingokhalani patsogolo pake.
Chizindikiro cha nsanjacho kuyambira pachiyambi cha nthawi yathu ino ndipo chidapangidwa ndi akhristu oyamba. Pa nthawiyo, Aroma ankalamulira madera ambiri. Chifukwa kukhulupirira Mulungu m'modzi ndikuzindikira Ambuye m'modzi, Yesu Khristu, kunali koletsedwa (zinali zowopsa pakupembedza mfumu), akhristu mu ufumu wa Roma amayenera kusamala ndi zonena zawo. Amasanthula zizindikilo za tsiku ndi tsiku zomwe sizingawonekere pomwepo, koma zomwe zimakhala ndizokwanira kunena kuti tizilimbikitsana. Nsombayo inali chizindikiro choterocho. Ndi chizindikiro cha Yesu Khristu.
Ichthys
Nsombazi ndiye, chimodzi mwazizindikiro zakale kwambiri zachikhristu. Ankagwiritsidwa ntchito kale ndi akhristu mzaka za 70, pomwe panali magulu ochepa achikhristu omwe adayamba kutsutsana ndi nkhanzazo. Akristu nthawi zina ankazunzidwa, nthawi zina kumaloko, komanso mu Ufumu wonse wa Roma.
Malongosoledwe osiyanasiyana azunzo asungidwa, kuphatikiza kupachikidwa ndi kuphedwa komwe kumathera pakati pa nyama zamtchire m'mabwalo amasewera. Nsombazi zinali chizindikiritso chabwino kwa Akhristu munthawi yovutayi. Icho chinali chizindikiro chomwe chimakopa malingaliro.
Osati kuti nsomba yokha inanena zambiri. Zinali za tanthauzo la zilembo za mawu oti nsomba. Chigiriki chinali chilankhulo chadziko lonse panthawiyo. Pazandale, malingaliro achi Roma (Latin) adapambana, pachikhalidwe, malingaliro achi Greek.
Liwu lachi Greek loti nsomba ndi 'ichthus.' Mmawu awa, zilembo zoyambirira zamaina ena ndi maudindo a Yesu zabisika: Iesous Christos THeou Uios Soter (Yesu Khristu, Mwana wa Mulungu, Mpulumutsi). Ndi zomwe zinali pafupi! Nsombazo zinali ngati mawu achinsinsi. Chinsinsi chosainidwa. Aliyense amene wakoka nsombayo adawonetsa popanda mawu kuti ndi Mkhristu: mumavomereza mawu achikhulupiriro omwe zilembo za ichthus zimanena.
Chizindikiro cha nsomba chimagwira ntchito ngati chobisa (chobisika) cha chikhulupiriro chawo kwa Akhristu olankhula Chigiriki. Koma kodi mawu omwe apangitsa ichthus nsomba kukhala chizindikiro chofunikira chikhristu amatanthauzanji? Ichthus amayimira izi:
Ndine Yesu
CH Christos Khristu
TH THou Mulungu

Yesu
Yesu anali kukhala ku Israeli zaka zikwi ziwiri zapitazo, zomwe panthawiyo sizinali zochepa chabe mu Ufumu wa Roma. Ngakhale a Batavians ndi a Kanines Faten anali akukhalabe m'dziko lathu, panali chikhalidwe cholembera bwino ku Israel kwazaka zambiri. Okhala m'nthawi yake motero analemba mbiri ya moyo wa Yesu. Mabuku awo amapezeka m’Baibulo.
Timawerenga kuti Yosefe, kalipentala wochokera kumpoto kwa Israeli, adalangizidwa ndi Mulungu kuti ayitane mwana yemwe adzabereke Mzimu wa Mulungu mwa Maria (mkwatibwi wake wamwamuna) Yesu. Dzinalo Yesu limatanthauza kuti Mulungu amapulumutsa. Ndi dzina lachi Greek la dzina lachihebri Joshua (Chihebri chinali chilankhulo choyambirira cha Israeli). Ndi dzina ili, ntchito ya Yesu idasindikizidwa: adzapulumutsa anthu m'malo mwa Mulungu ku mphamvu ya uchimo ndi matenda.
Ndipo zowonadi, pantchito yake ku Israeli, adachita zozizwitsa zodabwitsa, kumasula anthu ku nthenda zamtundu uliwonse ndi ziwanda. Anatinso: Pokhapokha Mwana atakupangitsani kukhala aufulu mudzakhala omasuka. Pambuyo pa zaka zitatu, komabe, adamangidwa ndikumulamula kuti aphedwe pamtanda, chida chozunzirako cha Roma. Otsutsa ake anafuula kuti:
Lonjezo lopangidwa m'dzina lake ndi chiyembekezo chomwe adadzutsa m'moyo wake zimawoneka ngati zachotsedwa. Mpaka masiku atatu pambuyo pake, zidawoneka kuti wawuka m'manda. Baibulo limafotokoza mwatsatanetsatane za imfa yake ndi kuwuka kwake ndipo limalankhula za mboni mazana asanu omwe adamuwonanso. Yesu analemekeza dzina lake. Adali atagonjetsa mdani womaliza, imfa - sakanakhoza kupulumutsa anthu, ndiye? Ndiye chifukwa chake otsatira ake adamaliza kuti: Dzina lake ndi lokhalo padziko lapansi lomwe lingapulumutse munthu.
Khristu
Mabuku a m'Baibulo omwe moyo wa Yesu adalembedwera (Mauthenga Abwino anayi) adalembedwa m'Chigiriki. Ichi ndichifukwa chake Yesu amatchedwa Khristu ndi dzina lake lachi Greek. Mawu amenewo amatanthauza wodzozedwa.
Kodi kumatanthauza chiyani kukhala wodzozedwa? Mu Israeli, ansembe, aneneri, ndi mafumu adadzozedwa ndi mafuta pantchito zawo: udali msonkho wapadera ndi chitsimikiziro chochokera kwa Mulungu. Yesu adadzozedwanso (Mulungu adamudzoza ndi Mzimu Woyera) kuti akhale wansembe, mneneri, komanso mfumu. Malinga ndi baibulo, panali munthu m'modzi yekha amene amatha kugwira ntchito zitatuzi nthawi imodzi. Anali Mesiya (liwu lachihebri la Khristu kapena Wodzozedwa) amene adalonjezedwa ndi Mulungu.
Kale m'mabuku oyamba a Baibulo (omwe adalembedwa zaka mazana ambiri Yesu asanabadwe), Mesiya uyu adalengezedwa ndi aneneri. Tsopano anali pamenepo! Otsatira a Yesu adabweretsa Yesu ngati Mesiya yemwe adzawamasule ku gulu lankhondo lachi Roma ndikupatsa Israeli malo ofunikira pamapu apadziko lonse.
Koma Yesu anali ndi ufumu wina m'malingaliro womwe sungakhazikitsidwe kufikira atapita panjira yapansi ndikugonjetsa imfa. Kenako amapita kumwamba ndikupereka Mzimu Woyera kwa anthu omwe akufuna kuzindikira ufumu wake m'miyoyo yawo. M'buku la m'Baibulo la Machitidwe, yotsatizana ndi Mauthenga Abwino anayi, titha kuwerenga kuti izi zidachitikadi.
Mwana wa Mulungu
Pachikhalidwe cha Israeli, Mwana wamwamuna woyamba kubadwa ndiye anali wolowa nyumba wofunikira kwambiri. Bamboyo anamupatsa dzina lake ndi katundu wake. Yesu amatchedwa Mwana wa Mulungu mu Baibulo. Mulungu amamutsimikizira kuti ndi Mwana wake wokondedwa pa ubatizo wake. Kenako amalandira Mzimu Woyera ndipo potero amalandira ulemu woyenera iye monga Mwana wa Mulungu.
Mu moyo wa Yesu, mukuwona chikondi chachikulu pakati pa Mulungu, Atate ndi Yesu Mwana. Monga mwana wazaka khumi ndi ziwiri, akuti kwa Joseph ndi Mary, ndiyenera kukhala wotanganidwa ndi zinthu za Atate anga. Pambuyo pake, adzati, Ndimangochita zomwe ndikuwona Atate akuchita. ngati Atate ali. Akuti chifukwa cha iye, titha kutengedwa ngati ana a Mulungu, kuti nafenso tithe Mulungu Atate wathu.
Baibulo limatsindika kuti Yesu anali munthu weniweni osati Mlengi wapadera. Komabe analinso Mwana wa Mulungu, amene mphamvu ya uchimo sinamugwire. Iye anali Mulungu mu mawonekedwe aumunthu, kudzichepetsa yekha ndikukhala munthu kuti apulumutse anthu.
Mpulumutsi
Baibulo ndi buku loona. Simunaganize choncho? Mwanjira zonse zotheka, zimawonekeratu momwe zinthu zilili ndi anthu. Sitingathe kukhala momwe Mulungu amafunira kuti tikhale tokha. Ndife akapolo a zizolowezi zathu zoyipa, chifukwa chake, nthawi zonse timasemphana tokha komanso tokha. Mulungu sangathe kulekerera zoipa zomwe tili nazo. Zinthu zopanda chilungamo zomwe timamuchitira, komanso chilengedwe chathu nchachikulu kwambiri kotero kuti chilango chilichonse chimakhala chochepa kwambiri.
Tatayika. Koma Mulungu amatikonda. Pali njira imodzi yokha yochokeramuvuto ili: Ayenera kupulumutsa. Tiyenera kupatsidwa kuchokera ku uchimo womwe umasungidwa ndi mdani wathu, Satana. Yesu anabwera padziko lapansi ndi ntchito imeneyo.
Anapita kunkhondo ndi Satana ndipo adakana mphamvu ya uchimo. Ndipo anachita zambiri. Anayimira machimo athu monga nthumwi ya anthu onse ndikukumana ndi zotsatira zake, imfa. Adamwalira m'malo mwathu. Kudzera mu mphamvu ya Mzimu Woyera, adaukanso kwa akufa, ndikumulola iye kuti atimasule ku uchimo kuti timvane ndi Mulungu.
Yesu ndiye mpulumutsi wathu kuti tisasowe chiweruzo, koma tikhoza kupulumutsidwa chifukwa cha chisomo cha Mulungu. Chipulumutso chimenecho chimakhudza anthu m'zochita zawo. Aliyense amene amakhala ndi Yesu amasinthidwa kuchokera mkati ndi Mzimu Woyera kuti aphunzire kukhala momwe Mulungu afunira. Izi zimapangitsa moyo wachikhristu kukhala waphindu komanso wosangalatsa, ndikuyembekeza tsogolo labwino.
Yesu wapambana chigonjetso, ngakhale dziko lapansi likuvutikabe ndi zotulukapo zauchimo. Titha kukhala nawo kale pachigonjetso chake ndikukhala muubwenzi wapoyera ndi Mulungu, ngakhale mphamvu yauchimo ikugwirabe ntchito. Tsiku lina zonse zidzakhala zatsopano. Yesu akadzabweranso, kupambana kwake kumasamutsidwa ku zolengedwa zonse. Ndiye chiombolo chimene Mulungu ali nacho m'malingaliro chatha.
Tikukhulupirira, kafukufukuyu wafupikitsa kukudziwitsani pang'ono tanthauzo la chikwangwani cha nsomba. Chinthu chimodzi chimakhala chowonekera. Mawu akuti Yesu Khristu, Mwana wa Mulungu, Mpulumutsi ali ndi nkhani zomwe mosakayikira zidafotokozedwa ndi akhristu oyamba modabwitsa, mantha, komanso kuthokoza pomwe amafotokoza tanthauzo la chikwangwani cha ichthus.
Koma pali zambiri zoti tinene za izi. Mawu achikhulupiriro obisala kuseri kwa chikwangwani cha nsomba akadasunthabe mamiliyoni a anthu. Chifukwa chake, ngakhale lerolino, nsomba za ichthus ndizofunika kwa Akhristu ambiri monga chizindikiro cha chikhulupiriro chawo. Ine ndikufuna kunena zinthu zina zingapo za izo.
Chizindikiro cha nsomba tsopano
Titha kunena zinthu zitatu za tanthauzo la chizindikiro cha nsomba lero.
Choyamba, Akhristu akuzunzidwabe pamlingo waukulu chifukwa cha zikhulupiriro zawo. Malipoti ozunza samakonda kufalitsa nkhani. Komabe, mabungwe apadera amafotokoza kuzunzidwa kwachikhristu pafupifupi mayiko onse ku North Africa ndi Middle East (kuphatikiza Israeli), ku India, Indonesia, China, Cuba, Mexico, Peru, ndi mayiko ena.
Kachiwiri, zikuwoneka kuti mpingo wachikhristu - monganso mzaka zoyambirira za nthawi yathu ino - nthawi zambiri umakula motsutsana ndi kuponderezedwa. Muthanso kunena kuti chikhristu padziko lonse lapansi sichinakule mwachangu zaka makumi asanu zapitazi. Uthenga wabwino wa Yesu Khristu sunataye mphamvu zake zowonekera, ngakhale mungaganize mwanjira ina mdziko lathu lachipembedzo.
Izi zimandibweretsa ku mfundo yachitatu. Gulu lathu lataya mfundo zachikhristu zambiri. Komabe pali anthu nthawi zonse amene amapeza mphamvu yakukonzanso moyo wa uthenga wabwino. Komanso, mameneja amazindikira kuti Chikhristu chimatha kupereka chitsogozo pamikhalidwe ndi zikhalidwe poyankha mafunso ovuta omwe amakhala mdera lathu.
Pali kuzindikira pakati pa akhristu kuti akhala chete kwakanthawi. Mipingo ndi magulu azipembedzo pakadali pano akupanga magulu ang'onoang'ono kuti abweretse chikhulupiriro pafupi ndi iwo omwe ali ndi chidwi. Anthu osiyanasiyana amatsegula nyumba zawo kuti adziwe, kudzera mu Baibulo, kuti Yesu ndi ndani komanso zomwe mphamvu ya Mzimu wake ingatanthauze m'moyo wa munthu wina ndi malo ake pamisonkhano yamwambo. Uthenga wabwino ndi wamoyo.
Chifukwa chake? Kugwiritsa ntchito chikwangwani cha ichthus kumatsimikizira kuti ngakhale masiku ano, anthu ambiri amalemekeza tanthauzo lake. Aliyense amene wanyamula nsomba uja akuti: Yesu Khristu ndi Mwana wa Mulungu, Mpulumutsi!
