3 Yesu wanguchitaku cha ndali kweni wanguŵika maŵanaŵanu ngaki ngosi pa kupharazga Ufumu waku Chiuta, weniwo iyu walindizganga kuzija Fumu. (Danyele 7:13, 14; Luka 4:43; 17:20, 21) Ndichu chifukwa chaki po wakambiskananga ndi Pontio Pilato yo wenga Nduna ya Aroma, Yesu wangukamba kuti: “Ufumu wangu kuti ngwacharu chinu cha.” (Yohane 18:36) Akhristu akugomezgeka, atimuyezga mwakuja akugomezgeka kwaku Khristu ndi Ufumu waki ndipuso apharazga Ufumu wenuwu pacharu chosi. (Mateyu 24:14) Wakutumika Paulo wangulemba kuti: ‘Viyo te mathenga [akumiya] pachifukwa chaku Khristu, tininizikiya imwi pachifukwa chaku Khristu, kuti: “Mwanjaniskikiyi kwaku Chiuta.”’ *

Magulu ngosi ngaŵi ngakoliyana pakugwira nchitu yakulutiska panthazi Ufumu wakuwusika ndi Mesiya, ndipu ngachita ndali cha chinanga nkhamanavi.

(Yohane 13:34, 35; 1 Yohane 3:10-12) Penga pakuvwika kuti Yesu wakambiyi akutumika ŵaki kuti angachitanga nkhondu cha. Iyu wanguŵakambiya so kuti ayanjengi arwani ŵawu.

Lemba la 1 Ŵakorinte 6:19, 20, likamba kuti: “Ndipu kuti mwe waku mwaŵeni cha; chifukwa mungugulika ndi mtengu.” Mwaviyo, chinanga kuti Akhristu apereka ‘vaku Kaisare kwaku Kaisare,’ nge ulemu, misonkhu ndipuso kumuvwiya asani mphakukhumbika kuchita viyo, kweni yiwu apereka “vaku Chiuta kwaku Chiuta.” (Marko 12:17; Ŵaroma 13:1-7) Ivi visazgapu kusopa kwawu, chanju chawu chakutuliya pasi pa mtima ndipuso kumuvwiya mwakugomezgeka. Yiwu mbakunozgeka kupereka umoyu wawu chifukwa chaku Chiuta.

Uchitiska munthu kuti wayambi kuja ndi mijalidu yiheni nge mbunu, kujikuzga, kuleka kukhorweseka ndi vo wenavu ndipuso kuja ndi mzimu wakujithemba kweniso wakugarukiya. * Tingakamba kuti mzimu wacharu uchitiska kuti mijalidu yaku Diabolo yiyambi kukuwa m’mtima wa munthu.
