Yehova anatipatsa zinthu zambirimbiri koma mphatso yamtengo wapatali kuposa zonse ndi nsembe ya Mwana wake, Yesu Khristu. (Werengani Mateyu 20:28.) Monga mmene tionere m’mutuwu, nsembe imeneyi ndi mphatso yamtengo wapatali kwambiri chifukwa ingakuthandizeni kukhala osangalala komanso ingakuthandizeni kupeza zinthu zimene mumazisowa.

3. Kodi dipo la Yesu n’chiyani, nanga tikufunika kudziwa chiyani kuti timvetse kuti imeneyi ndi mphatso yamtengo wapatali?
3 Kunena mwachidule, dipo la Yesu ndi njira imene Yehova anagwiritsa ntchito kuti apulumutse anthu ku uchimo ndi imfa. (Aefeso 1:7) Kuti timvetse zimene Baibulo limaphunzitsa pa nkhaniyi, tiyenera kuganizira zomwe zinachitika m’munda wa Edeni. Tikadziwa bwino zimene Adamu anataya atachimwa, m’pomwe tingamvetse kuti nsembe ya dipo ndi mphatso yamtengo wapatali kwambiri.
4. Monga munthu wangwiro, kodi Adamu akanakhala ndi moyo wotani?
4 Yehova polenga Adamu anam’patsa chinthu chamtengo wapatali kwambiri, womwe ndi moyo wangwiro. Taganizirani moyo umene Adamu akanakhala nawo. Chifukwa choti anali wangwiro, sakanadwala, kukalamba kapena kufa. Monga munthu wangwiro, iye ankagwirizananso kwambiri ndi Yehova. Baibulo limanena kuti Adamu anali “mwana wa Mulungu.” (Luka 3:38) Zimenezi zikusonyeza kuti Adamu ankagwirizana kwambiri ndi Yehova ngati mmene mwana amagwirizanirana ndi abambo ake. Komanso Yehova ankalankhulana ndi Adamu pamene ankamupatsa ntchito yoti azigwira ndiponso malamulo oti azitsatira.—Genesis 1:28-30; 2:16, 17.
5. Kodi Baibulo limatanthauza chiyani likamanena kuti Adamu analengedwa “m’chifaniziro cha Mulungu”?
5 Adamu analengedwa “m’chifaniziro cha Mulungu.” (Genesis 1:27) Koma zimenezi si zikutanthauza kuti ankaoneka mofanana ndi Mulungu. Monga tinaphunzirira m’mutu woyamba, Yehova ndi mzimu ndipo sitingamuone. (Yohane 4:24) Choncho si kuti Yehova ali ndi thupi lofanana ndi la munthu. Mawu akuti Adamu analengedwa m’chifaniziro cha Mulungu akutanthauza kuti Adamu analengedwa ndi makhalidwe ofanana ndi a Mulungu, ngati chikondi, nzeru, chilungamo ndi mphamvu. Adamu analinso wofanana ndi Mulungu pa nkhani yokhala ndi ufulu wotha kusankha zochita. Choncho Adamu sanalengedwe ngati matchini omwe saganiza, amangogwira ntchito zomwe anawakonzera kuti azigwira.

6 Choncho pamene Adamu anasankha kusamvera Mulungu anataya mwayi waukulu chifukwa anaweruzidwa kuti ayenera kufa. Kusamvera kwake kunachititsa kuti asakhalenso ndi moyo wangwiro komanso kuti asakhale ndi madalitso amene akanakhala nawo ngati akanamvera. (Genesis 3:17-19) N’zomvetsa chisoni kuti Adamu anataya moyo wamtengo wapatali ndipo zimene anachitazi zinakhudzanso ana ake. Mawu a Mulungu amanena kuti: ‘Uchimo unalowa m’dziko kudzera mwa munthu mmodzi [Adamu], ndi imfa kudzera mwa uchimo, imfayo n’kufalikira kwa anthu onse chifukwa onse anachimwa.’ (Aroma 5:12) Choncho tonse tinatengera uchimo kuchokera kwa Adamu. N’chifukwa chake Baibulo limanena kuti iye anadzigulitsa limodzi ndi ana ake ku ukapolo wa uchimo ndi imfa. (Aroma 7:14) Adamu ndi Hava analibe mwayi womveredwa chisoni chifukwa anasankha dala kusamvera Mulungu. Nanga bwanji ana awo, kuphatikizapo ifeyo?

Chachiwiri, dipo ndi ndalama kapena katundu amene mtengo wake ndi wofanana ndi zinthu zimene zawonongedwa. Mwachitsanzo, ngati munthu wachititsa ngozi n’kuvulaza anthu kapena kuwononga katundu, amayenera kulipira ndalama zogwirizana ndi zinthu zimene zawonongekazo.

Tiyeni tikambirane za dipo limene Yehova anapereka n’cholinga choti timasulidwe ku ukapolowu. Tikambirananso madalitso amene tingapeze chifukwa cha dipo limeneli.

(Afilipi 2:7) Monga tinaphunzirira m’mutu wapita uja, Yehova anachita chozizwitsa pamene anasamutsa moyo wa Mwana wake kuchoka kumwamba n’kuuika m’mimba mwa Mariya. Mulungu anagwiritsa ntchito mzimu woyera kuti Yesu abadwe wangwiro moti chilango cha uchimo sichinkamukhudza.—Luka 1:35.

Yesu, amene Baibulo limamutchula kuti ndi “Adamu womalizira,” anali wangwiro ndipo sanachitepo tchimo. (1 Akorinto 15:45) Tingati Yesu analowa m’malo mwa Adamu kuti atipulumutse.

(Yohane 19:1, 16-18, 30; Zakumapeto, tsamba 204-206) Koma kodi zinali zofunika kuti Yesu avutike chonchi? M’mutu wina kutsogoloku tiona kuti Satana anakayikira zoti munthu angatumikire Yehova mokhulupirika atakumana ndi mavuto.

Atamaliza ntchito imene Mulungu anam’patsa, Yesu anabwerera kwa Mulungu kumwamba kumene Mulungu analandira mtengo wa moyo wangwiro umene Yesu anapereka kuti apulumutse ana a Adamu.

(Chivumbulutso 21:3, 4) Madalitso onse a m’tsogolo kuphatikizapo kukhala ndi moyo wosatha komanso wangwiro, adzatheka chifukwa Yesu anatifera.

Lemba la Yohane 3:16 limati: “Mulungu anakonda kwambiri dziko mwakuti anapereka Mwana wake wobadwa yekha.” Choncho dipo la Yesu ndi umboni wakuti Yehova amatikonda kwambiri. Komanso ndi umboni wakuti Yesu amatikonda chifukwa analolera kupereka moyo wake kuti atipulumutse. (Werengani Yohane 15:13.)
