Maonero a Mulungu Thangwi ya Nkhondo Mu Pyaka Dzana Yakutoma

Anthu akhapondererwa. Sawasawa ninga makholo awo, mwakukhonda penula Ayuda a pyaka dzana yakutoma mukhapondererwa iwo na Utongi Waciroma, acita maphembero mwakubwereza-bwereza toera kuphemba ciphedzo ca Mulungu. Buluka penepo iwo abva thangwi ya Yezu. Kodi iye mbadapangiza kukhala ninga Mesiya wakupikirwa? Mwakukhonda penula, azinji ‘akhadikhira kuti iye anadzapulumusa Israele’ kwa anyakuaponderera Aciroma. (Luka 24:21) Mbwenye nee apulumuswa. M’mbuto mwace, mu caka 70 N.W., anyankhondo Aciroma abwera mbafudza Yerusalemu na templo yace.

Ninji pidacitika? Thangwi yanji Mulungu nee amenyera nkhondo Ayuda ninga pidacita iye kale? Peno, thangwi yanji iye nee aatawirisa kumenya nkhondo toera kupulumusika kwa anyakuaponderera? Kodi maonero a Mulungu thangwi ya nkhondo akhadacinja? Nkhabe. Mbwenye, ciripo cidacinja kuna Ayuda. Iwo akhonda Yezu, mwana wa Mulungu ninga Mesiya. (Machitiro 2:36) Natenepa, ninga mbumba, iwo aluza uxamwali wawo wakupambulika na Mulungu.—Mateo 23:37, 38.

Dzindza ya Ayuda pabodzi na Dziko yawo Yakupikirwa nee pikhatsidzikizwabve na Mulungu, pontho Ayuda nee mbadakhalabve na ciphedzo ca Mulungu mu nkhondo. Ninga mukhadalongeratu Yezu, nkhombo zikhali na Aisraele za kukhala akutawirika kuna Mulungu zikhadabuluswa mbizipaswa dzindza ipswa yauzimu, yakuti m’Bhibhlya yadzacemerwa ‘Israele wa Mulungu.’ (Agalata 6:16; Mateo 21:43) Nsoka wa Akristu akudzodzwa na nzimu wapangiza kukhala Israele wauzimu wa Mulungu. Mu pyaka dzana yakutoma, iwo apangwa mwapakweca kuti: ‘Cincino ndimwe mbumba ya Mulungu.’—1 Pedro 2:9, 10.

Nakuti kutomera mu pyaka dzana yakutoma Akristu akhacemerwa “mbumba ya Mulungu,” kodi Iye aamenyera nkhondo toera kuapulumusa kuna anyakuponderera Aciroma? Peno aatawirisa kumenya nkhondo na anyakuponderera awo? Nkhabe. Thangwi yanji? Zingakhala nkhondo zakutawiriswa na Mulungu, ndi Mulungu basi anasankhula ntsiku yakumenya nkhondo ninga pidapangizwa mu nsolo udamala. Mulungu nee amenyera nkhondo Akristu a pyaka dzana yakutoma, pontho nee aatawirisa kucita khundu mu nkhondo za dziko lero. Pisapangiziratu kuti mu pyaka dzana yakutoma nee ukhali ndzidzi wa Mulungu toera kumenya nkhondo thangwi ya uipi na kupondererana.

Natenepa, sawasawa na atumiki a Mulungu a mu ndzidzi wakale, Akristu anewa a mu pyaka dzana yakutoma, akhafunika kudikhira ndzidzi wa Mulungu toera kumalisa Uipi na kupondererwa. Pa ndzidzi unoyu, iwo nee akhadatawiriswa na Mulungu kumenya nkhondo na anyamalwa awo. Yezu Kristu apangiza pyenepi mwapakweca mu pipfundziso pyace. Mwacitsandzo, iye nee atsogolera atowereri ace toera kumenya nkhondo, m’mbuto mwace iye aapanga: ‘Pitirizani kufuna anyamalwa anu na phembererani ale anakutcingani.’ (Mateo 5:44) Mudapikira iye kuti Yerusalemu wa pyaka dzana yakutoma mbadafudzwa na anyankhondo Aciroma, Yezu apanga anyakupfundzace, toera kuthawa tayu kumenyana nawo—iwo apicitadi.—Luka 21:20, 21.

Kusiyapo pyenepi, mwakupumirwa mpostolo Paulu alemba: ‘Lekani kubwezera pyakuipa, ninga mudalembwa kale kuti: kubwezera ndi kwanga. Ine ndinabwezera, adapilonga ndi Yahova.’ (Aroma 12:19) Paulu akhalonga mafala adalonga Mulungu pyaka madzana n’nduli ninga mudalembwa iwo pa Levitiko 19:18 na Deuteronomyo 32:35. Ninga pidaona ife mu nsolo udamala, njira idaphatisira Mulungu toera kubwezera anyamalwa a mbumba yace mu ndzidzi wakale ikhali kuapanga toera amenye nkhondo na anyamalwa awo. Na mafala anewa Paulu apangiza kuti maonero a Mulungu thangwi ya nkhondo nee acinja. Mu pyaka dzana yakutoma, Mulungu apitiriza kuona nkhondo ninga njira yakutawirika toera kubwezera anyamalwa a mbumba yace na kumalisa kupondererwa na uipi. Natenepa, ninga mu ndzidzi wakale, Mulungu basi ndiye analonga ntsiku ya kumenya nkhondo, pontho mbani adathema kucita khundu.

Mwapakweca, Mulungu nee atawirisa Akristu a mu pyaka dzana yakutoma kumenya nkhondo. Ndiye tani lero? Kodi Mulungu asatawirisa misoka ya anthu kumenya nkhondo? Peno, kodi wafika ndzidzi toera Mulungu amenyere nkhondo atumiki ace? Mulungu asaona tani nkhondo lero? Nsolo unatowera unatawira mibvundzo ineyi.
