UKABONI WA MU BAIBOLO
Mabuku gha Makani Ghawemi ghakulongosora makora vya umoyo na uteŵeti wa Yesu. Ghakuzunuraso ŵanthu, malo, na nyengo, ivyo ni vinthu vyakukhumbikwa chomene pa nkhani ya mdauko. Chiyelezgero chili pa Luka 3:1, 2, icho chikutovwira kumanya deti leneko ilo munthu wakuchemeka Yohane Mubatizi, wakambira uteŵeti wake. Yohane wakasengulira nthowa Yesu.
Luka wakalemba kuti: “Mu chaka cha 15 cha ufumu wa Tiberiyo Kesare, Pontiyo Pilato wakaŵa kazembe wa Yudeya. Herode wakalamuliranga chigaŵa cha Galileya ndipo Filipu mukuru wake wakalamuliranga chigaŵa cha Itureya na Tirakoniti. Lusaniya wakalamuliranga chigaŵa cha Abilene. Mu mazuŵa gha mulara wa ŵasembe Anasi na gha Kayafa, mazgu gha Chiuta ghakiza kwa Yohane mwana wa Zekariya mu mapopa.” Nkhani iyi yikutovwira kumanya kuti “mazgu gha Chiuta ghakiza kwa Yohane” mu chaka cha 29 C.E.
Ŵanthu ŵakumanya vya mdauko ŵakuŵamanya makora ŵanthu 7 awo Luka wakaŵazunura. Nangauli vili nthena, kweni nyengo yinyake ŵanyake ŵakakayikapo usange Pontiyo Pilato na Lusaniya ŵakaŵako nadi. Kweni ŵakabuda waka kughanaghana nthena. Chifukwa ntchakuti ŵanthu ŵali kubowozga vinthu vyakale ivyo pali kulembeka mazina gha ŵalaraŵalara ŵaŵiri aŵa, kulongora kuti Luka wakaneneskanga.KASI VILI NA NTCHITO YILIYOSE?
Ntchakukhumbikwa chomene kumanya usange Yesu wakaŵako nadi chifukwa visambizgo vyake ni vyakovwira. Chiyelezgero, Yesu wakasambizganga umo ŵanthu ŵangaŵira na umoyo uwemi na wakukhorweska. * Kweniso wakalayizga kuti nyengo yikwiza apo ŵanthu ŵazamukhala mwamtende na kufwasa, ŵazamuŵa ŵakukolerana pasi pa boma limoza lakuchemeka “Ufumu wa Chiuta.”—Luka 4:43.
Zina lakuti “Ufumu wa Chiuta” ndakwenelera nadi chifukwa boma ili ntchilongolero cha muwuso wa Chiuta pa charu chapasi. (Chivumbuzi 11:15) Yesu wakalongora makora chomene fundo iyi, apo wakati: “Adada ŵithu imwe muli kuchanya, . . . Ufumu winu wize. Khumbo linu lichitike pano pasi.” (Mateyu 6:9, 10) Kasi Ufumu uwu uzamuŵachitira vichi ŵanthu? Wonani vyakulondezgapo:
-
Nkhondo na vivulupi vizamumara.—Salimo 46:8-11.
-
Uheni uliwose, uryezi na vimbundi, kuzamuŵavya, pamoza na ŵanthu ŵambura kopa Chiuta.—Salimo 37:10, 11.
-
Ŵanthu ŵa mu Ufumu uwu ŵazamukondwa na ntchito ziwemi zakukhorweska.—Yesaya 65:21, 22.

Charu chapasi chizamuweleramo ndipo chizamupambika vyakurya vinandi.—Salimo 72:16; Yesaya 11:9.
Ŵanthu ŵanyake ŵangawona nga ivi ni maloto waka. Kweni asi ghangaŵa maloto waka usange tikugomezga kuti ŵanthu ndiwo ŵanganozga vinthu? Wonani fundo iyi: Nangauli charu chaluta panthazi pa nkhani za masambiro, sayansi, na vyakupangapanga, kweni ŵanthu ŵanandi ŵakukhala mwawofi ndipo ŵakumanya yayi icho chiŵengeko machero ghake. Zuŵa lililose tikuwona ukaboni wa masuzgo gha vyachuma, ndyali, na chisopa, kweniso uryezi na vimbundi. Nadi, ŵanthu ŵatondeka kwendeska makora vinthu.—Mupharazgi 8:9.
Ntheura ntchakukhumbikwa nadi kumanya usange Yesu wakaŵako. * Baibolo likuti: “Nanga malayizgo gha Chiuta ghaŵe ghanandi wuli, ghazgoka “enya” kwizira mwa [Khristu].”—2 Ŵakorinte 1:19, 20.
