(Werengani Yesaya 50:4-9.) Mtumikiyo ananena yekha kuti Yehova ankamuphunzitsa nthawi zonse. Iye anati: ‘Iye agalamutsa khutu langa kuti limve monga ophunzira.’ (Yes. 50:4) Panthawi yonseyo, Mtumiki wa Yehovayu anali wophunzira womvera, chifukwa Atate wake akamamuuza zinthu ankamvetsera. Uwutu unali mwayi waukulu kwambiri chifukwa anaphunzitsidwa ndi Mlengi wa chilengedwe chonse.

Mawu amenewa akusonyeza kuti Mtumikiyu anali ataphunzira mfundo yakuti Yehova ndiye wolamulira wa chilengedwe chonse. Posonyeza kuti amagonjera Atate wake pa zonse, iye anati: “Ambuye Yehova watsegula khutu langa, ndipo sindinakhala wopanduka ngakhale kubwerera m’mbuyo.” (Yes. 50:5) Iye ‘anali pa mbali ya Yehova ngati mmisiri,’ polenga kumwamba, dziko lapansi komanso anthu. ‘Mmisiri’ ameneyu anali “kukondwera pamaso [pa Yehova] nthawi zonse, ndi kukondwera ndi dziko lake lokhalamo anthu, ndi kusekerera ndi ana a anthu.”​—Miy. 8:22-31.

Iye anapitirirabe kusangalala ndi kuchita chifuniro cha Atate wake, ngakhale pamene anazunzidwa kwambiri. (Sal. 40:8; Mat. 26:42; Yoh. 6:38) Panthawi yonse imene ankakumana ndi mayesero padziko pano, Yesu ankadziwa kuti Atate wake ali naye ndipo akusangalala naye. Monga mmene ulosi wa Yesaya unanenera, n’zomveka Yesu kunena mawu akuti: “Iye ali pafupi amene alungamitsa ine; ndani adzakangana ndi Ine? . . . Taonani, Ambuye Yehova adzathandiza ine.” (Yes. 50:8, 9) Inde, Yehova anathandiza Mtumiki wake wokhulupirikayu pa utumiki wake wonse ali padziko lapansi, monga mmene ulosi winanso wa Yesaya ukusonyezera.

Utumiki Wake Ali Padziko Lapansi

8. Kodi pali umboni wotani umene ukutsimikizira kuti Yesu analidi “wosankhidwa” wa Yehova, mogwirizana ndi lemba la Yesaya 42:1?

Limati: “Mzimu woyera . . . unatsika kudzatera pa iye, ndiyeno panamveka mawu ochokera kumwamba akuti: ‘Iwe ndiwe Mwana wanga wokondedwa; ndimakondwera nawe.’” (Luka 3:21, 22) Pamenepa Yehova ananena momveka bwino kuti ‘Wosankhidwa wake,’ wotchulidwa mu ulosi wa Yesaya uja ndi Yesu. (Werengani Yesaya 42:1-7.) Muutumiki wake ali padziko pano, Yesu anakwaniritsa ulosi umenewu m’njira yodabwitsa kwambiri. M’nkhani imene analemba m’buku lake la uthenga wabwino, Mateyo anagwira mawu a pa Yesaya  42:1-4 n’kunena kuti mawuwo ankanena za Yesu.​—Mat. 12:15-21.

Koma Yesu ankachitira chifundo anthu osauka ndi ovutika. (Mat. 9:35, 36) Iye anawaitana mokoma mtima kuti: “Bwerani kwa ine, nonsenu ogwira ntchito yolemetsa ndi olemedwa, ndipo ndidzakutsitsimutsani.” (Mat. 11:28) Komanso Yesu ‘anatulutsa chiweruzo,’ kapena kuti chilungamo pophunzitsa anthu mfundo za Yehova zokhudza chabwino ndi choipa. (Yes. 42:3) Iye anasonyezanso kuti Chilamulo cha Mulungu chiyenera kugwiritsidwa ntchito m’njira yoyenera ndiponso mwachifundo. (Mat. 23:23) Yesu anasonyezanso chilungamo polalikira mopanda tsankho kwa olemera ndi osauka omwe.​—Mat. 11:5; Luka 18:18-23.

¹⁰ Ulosi wa Yesaya umanenanso kuti “Wosankhidwa “ wa Yehova ‘adzakhazikitsa chiweruzo m’dziko lapansi.’ (Yes. 42:4) Iye achita zimenezi posachedwapa. Monga Mfumu ya Ufumu wa Mesiya, adzawononga maufumu onse a anthu n’kukhazikitsa ulamuliro wake wolungama. Ndipo adzabweretsa dziko latsopano, limene “mudzakhala chilungamo.”​—2 Pet. 3:13; Dan. 2:44.

¹¹ Pokwaniritsa lemba la Yesaya 42:6, Yesu anasonyeza kuti iye ndi “kuunika kwa amitundu.” Pamene ankachita utumiki wake padziko lapansi pano, anaunikira anthu mwauzimu, makamaka Ayuda. (Mat. 15:24; Mac. 3:26) Yesu anatinso: “Ine ndine kuwala kwa dziko.” (Yoh. 8:12) Iye anakhala kuunika kwa Ayuda ndiponso anthu amitundu ndipo anatero powaunikira mwauzimu komanso popereka moyo wake wangwiro kuti awombole anthu onse. (Mat. 20:28) Ataukitsidwa, iye analamula ophunzira ake kuti akhale mboni zake “mpaka kumalekezero a dziko lapansi.” (Mac. 1:8) Pantchito yawo yolalikira, Paulo ndi Baranaba anagwira mawu akuti “kuunika kwa amitundu,” ndipo anati mawuwa ankanena za ntchito imene iwowo ankachita yolalikira anthu amene sanali Ayuda. (Mac. 13:46-48; yerekezerani ndi Yesaya 49:6.) Ntchito imeneyi ikupitirirabe chifukwa abale ake a Yesu limodzi ndi anzawo a nkhosa zina, akufalitsabe uthenga wabwino umene umaunikira anthu mwauzimu. Iwo akuthandizanso anthu kuyamba kukhulupirira Yesu, yemwe ali “kuunika kwa amitundu.”

¹² Muulosi womwewo, Yehova anauza Mtumiki wake wosankhidwa kuti: ‘Ndikusunga iwe, ndi kukupatsa ukhale pangano la anthu.’ (Yes. 42:6) Satana anayesetsa kupha Yesu komanso kumuletsa kutsiriza utumiki wake padziko lapansi, koma Yehova anamuteteza mpaka itafika nthawi yoti adzafe. (Mat. 2:13; Yoh. 7:30) Kenaka Yehova anamuukitsa Yesu n’kumupereka kuti akhale “pangano,” kapena kuti lonjezo kwa anthu a padziko lapansi. Lonjezo limenelo linapereka chitsimikizo chakuti Mtumiki wokhulupirika wa Mulunguyu adzakhalabe “kuunika kwa amitundu,” kuunikira  anthu onse okhala mumdima wauzimu.​—Werengani Yesaya 49:8, 9. *

13. Kodi Yesu anapulumutsa motani “amene akhala mumdima” pamene anali kuchita utumiki wake padziko pano, komanso panopo?

¹³ Mogwirizana ndi pangano limeneli, Mtumiki wa Yehova wosankhidwayu ‘adzatsegula maso akhungu,’ ‘adzatulutsa am’nsinga m’ndende,’ ndi kupulumutsa “amene akhala mumdima.” (Yes. 42:7) Yesu akuchita utumiki wake padziko lapansi pano, anakwaniritsa ulosi umenewu polalikira uthenga wabwino wa Ufumu ndi kutsutsa miyambo ya chipembedzo chonyenga. (Mat. 15:3; Luka 8:1) Motero Ayuda amene anakhala ophunzira ake anawapulumutsa ku chipembedzo chonyenga. (Yoh. 8:31, 32) Mofanana ndi zimenezi, Yesu wathandizanso anthu mamiliyoni ambiri omwe si Ayuda kuphunzira choonadi. Iye analamula anthu om’tsatira kuti: “Pitani mukapange ophunzira mwa anthu a mitundu yonse,” ndipo anawalonjeza kuti adzakhala nawo “mpaka mapeto a dongosolo lino la zinthu.” (Mat. 28:19, 20) Panopo, Khristu Yesu akuyang’anira ntchito yolalikira ya padziko lonse ali kumwamba.

¹⁵ Mtumwi Petulo ananena kuti Yesu “ali ku dzanja lamanja la Mulungu, pakuti anapita kumwamba; ndipo angelo ndi maulamuliro ndi mphamvu zinakhala pansi pake.” (1 Pet. 3:22) Mtumwi Paulo analembanso kuti Yesu “anadzichepetsa nakhala womvera mpaka imfa, inde, imfa ya pa mtengo wozunzikirapo. Pachifukwa chimenechinso, Mulungu anam’kweza pamalo apamwamba. Ndipo anam’komera mtima kum’patsa dzina loposa lina lililonse. Anatero kuti m’dzina la Yesu, onse apinde maondo awo, aja akumwamba, a padziko lapansi, ndi a pansi pa nthaka. Kutinso aliyense avomereze poyera ndi lilime lake kuti Yesu Khristu ndiye Ambuye, polemekeza Mulungu Atate.”​—Afil. 2:8-11.

16. Kodi mu 1914 Yesu ‘anatukulidwa pamwamba’ motani, ndipo wachita zotani kuyambira pamenepo?

 ¹⁶ Mu 1914, Yehova anam’kwezanso kwambiri Yesu. Iye ‘anam’tukula pamwamba’ atamuika kukhala Mfumu ya Ufumu wa Mesiya. (Sal. 2:6; Dan. 7:13, 14) Kuyambira nthawi imeneyo Khristu wakhala ‘akuchita ufumu pakati pa adani ake.’ (Sal. 110:2) Choyamba iye anagonjetsa Satana ndi ziwanda zake, ndipo anawaponyera kudziko. (Chiv. 12:7-12) Kenaka, monga Koresi Wamkulu, Khristu anapulumutsa otsalira a abale ake odzozedwa padziko pano, powachotsa mu “Babulo Wamkulu.” (Chiv. 18:2; Yes. 44:28) Iye wakhala akutsogolera ntchito yapadziko lonse yolalikira imene yathandiza kusonkhanitsa “otsala” a abale ake auzimu ndipo kenaka yathandizanso kusonkhanitsa anthu mamiliyoni a “nkhosa zina,” omwe ndi anzawo okhulupirika a anthu a “kagulu ka nkhosa.”​—Chiv. 18:2; Yes. 44:28; Chiv. 12:17; Yoh. 10:16; Luka 12:32.

17. Kodi taphunzira chiyani muulosi wa Yesaya wonena za “mtumiki”?

¹⁷ N’zosakayikitsa kuti kuphunzira ulosi wochititsa chidwi umenewu wa m’buku la Yesaya kwatithandiza kuyamba kuyamikira kwambiri Mfumu ndiponso Mombolo wathu, Khristu Yesu.
