5. Chikhulupiriro

Pa maziko a chidziwitso chako pali Chikhulupiriro. Kwalembedwa: «Aliyense molingana ndi chikhulupiriro chake». Koma ichi si chikhulupiriro chomwe timalankhula tikaganiza za chipembedzo kapena Mulungu (ndipo zinthu izi nzosiyana). Kutanthauza pamene tilankhula za chikhulupiriro chakhungu: ngati kuti tikuyenera kukhulupirira chinachake pamene tilibe chidziwitso, ndipo tikalandira chidziwitso, chikhulupiriro sitichifunanso. Ayi, tikunena za chikhulupiriro chenicheni, monga zikhulupiriro zozama za m’kati zomwe zimatsogolera chidziwitso chilichonse. Za Chikhulupiriro chomwe chimatsimikiza malamulo akuluakulu a zenizeni zathu. Ndipo pano n'kofunika kuzindikira kuti tonsefe, mwina popanda kudziwa, timakhulupirira chinachake.

Wina amakhulupirira sayansi, kuti munthu ndi nyama yotukuka, wina amakhulupirira ziphunzitso za chipembedzo, mwa «agogo a mitambo amene amalamulira zonse», wina amakhulupirira mphamvu zamatsenga... Koma anthu ambiri, popanda kuzindikira, amangokhulupirira kuti dziko lili monga momwe lilili, momwe timaliwonera, kulimva, kuliyesa, ndipo lilipo palokha popanda ife, mosasamala kanthu zomwe timaganiza za ilo, zomwe timadziwa za ilo — ilo liripo chabe. Ndipo pamene sitidzakhalaponso, lidzakhalabe momwemo, ife chabe sitidzakhalako. Zimenezi zimatchedwa «zenizeni zenizeni zosaoneka ndi munthu». Koma izi siziri momwe zinthu zilili kwenikweni, ichi ndi chikhulupiriro chabe, kukhudzika kozama komwe kunalandiridwa mwakachetechete muubwana ndikukhazikika monga chizolowezi; anthu ambiri amangokhulupirira mu «zenizeni zenizeni» izi, monga momwe wina amakhulupirira mwa «agogo a mitambo». Koma nkhani ndi yakuti,

mfundo yakuti «aliyense molingana ndi chikhulupiriro chake» imagwira ntchito nthawi zonse: chimene Uchimakhulupirira, ndi chimene umalandira. Chikhulupiriro chilichonse, monga choonadi chilichonse, chimadzitsimikizira chokha kudzera m'zinthu za dziko lakunja. Chilichonse.

Pa maziko ake, zenizeni zathu zili ngati, monga momwe akatswiri a sayansi ya fiziki amanenera, msuzi wa kwantamu, ndiko kuti «kusakanikirana» kwa zotheka zonse za zenizeni, ndipo chitsanzo chokha cha kaonedwe kathu, momwe timayang'anira dziko lathu, kudzera m'magalasi (a zikhulupiriro ndi zitsimikizo) omwe timazilandira, zimatsimikiza mtundu weniweni wa zenizeni zomwe timakhala nazo. Inde, zosankha izi zili ndi mwayi wosiyana wochitika. Koma monga chiphunzitso cha kwantamu cha QBism chimatiuza, «m'zenizeni zako chimachitika ndi mwayi waukulu kwambiri chimene Uchimakhulupirira (kutsimikiza) kwambiri mpaka kukhala wokonzeka kubetcha ndalama pa icho». M'zenizeni zako chimachitika chimene Uchimakhulupirira, «aliyense molingana ndi chikhulupiriro chake», ndipo zinthu zenizeni ndi chidziwitso chozikonza ndi zotsatira chabe zomwe «zimawonekera» kuchokera mu msuzi wa kwantamu wa zinthu zakuthupi molingana ndi chitsanzo cha Chikhulupiriro chathu.

Mwa kuyankhula kwina, Iwe nthawi zonse udzakhala ukufunafuna ndi kupeza umboni wa chimenecho chimene umachikhulupirira popanda kudziwa. Funso, kachiwiri, ndi lakuti, kodi Chikhulupiriro chako, zitsimikizo zako, zimakupatsa chisangalalo? Mwina pachiyambi unalandira zikhulupiriro zako mosazindikira — kuchokera kwa amayi ndi abambo, kwa olera ndi aphunzitsi, kuchokera kwa onse okuzungulira, koma tsopano Iwe ukhoza kupanga chisankho mozindikira. Kuganizira mozama za zipatso zomwe

Umazilandira kuchokera ku zikhulupiriro ndi zitsimikizo zako zamakono ndipo — tsopano mozindikira — kusankha chimene Iwe, kwenikweni, ukufuna kuchikhulupirira. Kusankha Chikhulupiriro kumatanthauza kusankha zenizeni ndi malamulo omwe zimagwirira ntchito.

Wosankha kukhulupirira mu «zenizeni zakunja» amagwera mwachindunji pansi pa malamulo a zenizeni zimenezi: kuchepa kwa zinthu, kufunika kumenyera nkhondo zinthuzo, malamulo ampikisano, momwe kupulumuka kudzakhala pamwamba pa makhalidwe abwino, chikhalidwe, Chikondi ndi chilungamo nthawi zonse. Wamphamvu kwambiri ndiye amapulumuka. Koma padzapezeka nthawi zonse wina wamphamvu kwambiri, komanso wokhala ndi ziletso zochepa zamakhalidwe. Koma nayenso pamapeto pake adzagonjetsedwa — ndi mdani wamphamvu kwambiri — imfa yosapeweka. M'zenizeni zimenezi muli chitsimikizo chimodzi chokha — chitsimikizo cha kugonjetsedwa, chitsimikizo cha imfa monga chotulukapo chachibadwa. Ndipo pamene Iwe ukupita mosalekeza ku mapeto amenewa omwe anakonzedweratu, waweruzidwa kuvutika, kuwopa ndi kusakonda. Kapena kukhala ndi moyo wa «mankhwala ochepetsa ululu», kuyesera kudzipatula ku ululu wa mantha ndi zokhumudwitsa — ndi chakudya, kugonana, zosangalatsa, masewera, masewera opangapanga, maphunziro osiyanasiyana, mankhwala osokoneza bongo, mowa...

Ndipo izi ndi «zenizeni zakunja». Pakuti mu «zenizeni zakunja» muli zinthu zambiri zakunja, zosadalira Iwe, kotero kuti munthu wanzeru, ngati amakhulupirira mu «zenizeni zakuthupi zomwe zilipo popanda iye», amayenera kumva mantha ndi nkhawa zosalekeza chifukwa cholephera kuzilamulira zonse. M'zenizeni zoterezi, mwatanthauzo, mantha ndi omwe amalamulira. Koma

munthu sangathe kukhala ndi moyo m'mantha osatha, izi zimatsutsana ndi chilengedwe chake Chenicheni. N'chifukwa chake zimafunika kudzipatutsa ndi chinachake...

Ndipo ambiri chifukwa cha mantha ndi masautsowa amathawira «kwa Mulungu», kwa mulungu yemwe, monga momwe zilili ndi «zenizeni zakunja», alipo padera ndi Iwe — monga «agogo a mitambo amene amalamulira chilichonse». Koma izi zili ngati «wapolisi woipa» ndi «wapolisi wabwino». «Ndi chinthu chomwecho, koma maonekedwe osiyana». Tsopano Iwe uyenera kumuopa iye. Ndipo nthawi zonse kufufuza zomwe iye akufuna kuchokera kwa Iwe. Ndipo pano pamatuluka magulu ambiri achipembedzo, mizimu, yomwe ikufuna kudyetsedwa mphamvu ya chikhulupiriro cha anthu. Chifukwa Chikhulupiriro ndi chitsime cha moyo, Chikhulupiriro ndi njira yomwe mphamvu imaperekedwera ku chimene Uchimakhulupirira. Ndipo kaya Iwe umakhulupirira mwa mulungu, mwa sayansi, kapena mu nkhondo yachitatu ya dziko, kapena mwa pulezidenti amene adzapulumutsa onse, kwenikweni zilibe kanthu. Iwe umapereka mofuna kwanu mphamvu ya moyo wako ku chinthu chakunja.

Izi sizitanthauza kuti Mulungu kulibe. Mulungu Alipo. Mulungu Alipo monga Mphamvu Yaikulu Yoposa Zonse ya chilichonse, ya zolengedwa zonse, ya zonse zomwe zinalipo, zilipo ndi zidzakhalapo, ndipo pa nthawi yomweyo monga Chitsime chake. Ndipo m'nthawi zonse panali anthu omwe adadzipereka kutumikira Mphamvu Yaikulu Yoposa Zonse imeneyi ya umunthu ndi Moyo wonse, kutanthauzira Mphamvu Yaikulu Yoposa Zonse imeneyi monga Chikondi Chopanda Malire, Moyo Wosatha wopambana imfa, Nzeru Yapamwamba, Luntha Lapamwamba, Mphamvu Yapamwamba ndi Chifuniro Chapamwamba, Chifukwa Chapamwamba ndi Chitsime cha zonse, ndipo potsiriza, Kukongola Kwapamwamba

m'lingaliro lalikulu kwambiri. Anthu oterowo, odzipereka kutumikira Mphamvu Yaikulu Yoposa Zonse imeneyi, ankatchedwa oyera mtima. Ndipo anthu amenewa anakhazikitsa kulumikizana kwawo kosatha komanso kopanda chipembedzo ndi Mphamvu Yaikulu Yoposa Zonse imeneyi, ndipo kudzera muutumiki wawo ndi Chikhulupiriro analemeretsa zonse kapena mbali inayake ya Makhalidwe Ake: wina analimbitsa Chifuniro (poima m'pemphero kwa zaka 40 pa mzati kapena pathanthwe), wina — Mphamvu yolamulira zinthu zakuthupi kudzera m'chikhulupiriro («Ndipo ngati chikhulupiriro chanu chili ngati kambewu kampiru, mudzauza phiri ilo kusamuka, ndipo lidzasamuka mwa mawu anu»), wina anapeza Luntha, kulimbitsa Nzeru ndikuzikweza mu Mzimu, mu Mzimu monga mawonekedwe Apamwamba a chidziwitso. Wina analangiza maganizo. Wina analera Ufulu ku mantha ndi ziletso za thupi, zolakalaka za thupi. Wina anangwirotsa Thupi. Wina anakuza mbali ya Moyo. Wina analimbitsa Mphamvu. Wina anapeza Chikondi.

Inde, ichinso ndi Chikhulupiriro. Koma Chikhulupiriro ichi, chodzipereka ku Zonse, kwa Imodzi ndi Yosagawika Yense, yomwe m'nthawi zonse inakhazikitsa Kulumikizana Kwake Kwamoyo ndi Mulungu Wamoyo Wosatha, kuika zopindula zake mu Chuma Chimodzi cha Mzimu, Chikhulupiriro ichi, Chikhulupiriro Chamoyo, chinapanga Mphamvu Yathu Yaikulu Yoposa Zonse, yomwe tsiku lina aliyense wolakalaka adzakhala nayo — osatinso mwa ntchito zake, koma mwa Chisomo Chapamwamba, cholukidwa kuchokera ku Ntchito Yaikulu Yodzipereka ya anthu oyera mtima amenewa, yomwe m'mbiri yonse ya umunthu inasanduka Chithunzi cha Mulungu Mmodzi ndi Chikondi Chake kwa ife, Chisomo Chake monga Atate-Amayi Athu Amodzi kwa Ana Ake.

Ndipo Chikhulupiriro ichi, chifukwa cha kukhala cha onse, chimapanga zenizeni zamodzi za Mphamvu Yaikulu Yoposa Zonse, zenizeni zamodzi za Paradaiso.

Aliyense mwa anthu amenewa anagwiritsa ntchito zofooka zake, zolephera zake monga malo oyambira ndikulimbitsa mphamvu ya chikhulupiriro ndi mphamvu ya chikhumbo (ndipo zokhumba ndi zofunika kwambiri, monga tidzawonere m'mutu wotsatira), osatembenuka kuchoka ku zofooka zake ndi mantha ake komanso osayesa kudziwalitsa mu «mankhwala ochepetsa ululu», monga anthu ena, koma kuyang'anitsitsa m'maso mwawo ndikupanga tsiku lililonse ntchito yoposa malire amenewa, kudzipereka zotsatira za ntchito imeneyi osati kwa iye mwini yekha, koma ku Umunthu wonse, ku Mphamvu Yake Yaikulu Yoposa Zonse, ku Chimene timachitcha Mulungu Mmodzi, Atate-Amayi Amodzi, Mzimu Mmodzi, pozindikira kuti makhalidwe apamwamba onsewa adzafika pa msinkhu wawo waukulu osati tsopano, osati pa sekondi ino, koma m'tsogolo («nthawi ikudzayo»), m'Chidziwitso Chatsopano Chapamwamba, Chomwe tsiku lina chidzazindikira Icho Chokha monga Chifukwa cha zonse. M'Chidziwitso cha Mlengi.

Ndipo taonani, tsogolo limeneli lafika. Tsiku lina — ndi Tsopano.

Iwe udzafunsa kuti, nanga bwanji sindingathe kungodzikhulupirira ndekha? Ndizotheka. Koma yerekeza: chikhulupiriro mwa iwe mwini monga cholengedwa chodzipatula ndi Chikhulupiriro mwa Iwe Mwini monga maonekedwe apadera a Mulungu Mmodzi, a Moyo Umodzi, omwe anapereka Thupi ku Mphamvu Yake Yaikulu Yoposa Zonse ndikupitiriza Kuyikuza pa kamphindi kalikonse mwa njira Zake zonse zapadera

zowonetsera, momwe mwana aliyense wa Mulungu, mlengi aliyense wa zenizeni zake, akupitiriza mphindi iliyonse kukulitsa maluso, mphatso, zolandiridwa kuchokera kwa Mzimu-Atate-Amayi Amodzi, ndikupereka chithandizo chake cha tsiku ndi tsiku pakukula kwa Mphamvu Yaikulu Yoposa Zonse imeneyi, polandira mphoto kwa iye mwini Mtundu Watsopano wa Mphamvu Yaikulu Yoposa Zonse Imodzi, woleredwa ndi ana onse ndi ziwalo zonse za Thupi Limodzi pa mphindi iliyonse ya Tsopano Limodzi.

Vomereza, kukhulupirira iwe mwini monga mwini chidziwitso wosiyana, woletsedwa ndi zokumana nazo zake, ndi Chikhulupiriro mwa Iwe Mwini monga maonekedwe apadera a Mulungu Mmodzi, Yemwe amatenga mwa Iye Mwini Mphamvu Yaikulu Yoposa Zonse Imodzi ya Chidziwitso Chosatha Chimodzi, choleredwa ndi Umunthu wonse, — ndi zinthu zosiyana.

Nanga, kodi ungakhulupirire bwanji mwa Iwe Mwini, mwa Iwe Mwini monga mlengi wa zenizeni zako, iwe wosadzipatula ku Zonse, koma monga mulungu ndi mwana wokondedwa, maonekedwe apadera, a Mulungu Mmodzi m'maonekedwe ako apadera a umunthu?

Pakuti Chikhulupiriro n'cholumikizana kwambiri ndi zokhumba. Ife timakhulupirira chimene tikufuna kukhulupirira. Ndipo mosemphananso: zokhumba zathu zimatsimikizika ndi zikhulupiriro zathu. Tiyeni tifufuze mphamvu yopereka moyo ya zokhumba zako.
