‘M’mbiri yako unakunda nkhondo.’—SAL. 45:4.
NTSONGA ZAKUFUNIKA TOERA KUKUMBUKA
Ndi mu njira zipi Yahova akuza Yezu kupiringana amambo ‘andzace?’
Kodi Kristu amanga lini supada yace, aiphatisira tani pakutoma, na anadzaiphatisira pontho lini?
Kodi ndi undimomwene upi ukulu kakamwe unatsidzikiza Mambo wa Nkhondo Yezu Kristu?
1, 2. Thangwi yanji Masalmo 45 isatiphata ntima?
MAMBO wa mbiri asatsogolera kavalo wace wa nkhondo thangwi ya undimomwene na ulungami mbaenda kutsogolo toera kukunda anyamalwa ace. Pakumala kuwina kwace kwakumalisa, mambo amanga banja na mankhadzi wakufunika. Mambo asakumbukirwa, pontho asasimbwa na ubalwi onsene wantsogolo. Nkhani ineyi ndi nsolo wa Masalmo 45.
2 Masalmo 45 isalonga pyakucitika pyakupiringana mbiri yakutsandzayisa yakuti iri na mamalisiro akutsandzayisa. Pyakucitika pidalongwa mu kapitulu ineyi piri na mabvekero kwa ife. Pyakucitika pyenepi pisakhuya umaso wathu cincino, pontho na ntsogolo. Tendeni tibvesere mwadidi, pontho tendeni tidinge mwacidikhodikho lemba ineyi ya Masalmo.
“NTIMA WANGA WADZALA NA MAFALA AKUKOMA”
3, 4. (a) Ninji “mafala akukoma” akuti ndi akufunika kwa ife, na asakhuya tani mitima yathu? (b) Ndi mu njira ipi ‘nyimbo zathu zisalonga pya mambo,’ pontho lirimi yathu yadzakhala tani ninga lapi?
3 Lerini Masalmo 45:1. Ntima wa nyamasalmo ukhali wakudzala na “mafala akukoma” thangwi ya mambo. Na thangwi ineyi ntima wace ukhali ‘wakutsandzaya’ na lirimi yace ikhali ninga ‘lapi ya munthu wakulemba mwadidi.’
4 Ndiye tani kwa ife? Mphangwa zadidi za Umambo Waumesiya ndi mafala adidi akuti asakhuya mitima yathu. Mphangwa za Umambo zadzakhala zakupambulika mu caka 1914. Kutomera penepo, mphangwa nee zikhalongabve pya Umambo wantsogolo mbwenye zikhalonga pya utongi wandimomwene wakuti cincino usatonga kudzulu. Zenezi ndi ‘mphangwa zadidi za Umambo’ zinamwaza ife ‘pantsi ponsene, toera zikhale umboni pakati pa anthu a mitundu yonsene.’ (Mat. 24:14) Kodi mitima yathu ‘isatsandzaya’ na mphangwa za Umambo? Kodi tisamwaza mphangwa zenezi na phinga? Ninga nyamasalmo, ‘nyimbo zathu zisalonga pya mambo’ wathu Yezu Kristu. Ife tisalonga pya iye ninga Mambo wakukhazikiswa kudzulu wa Umambo Waumesiya. Natenepa, ife tisadziwisa atongi onsene na anthu anatonga iwo toera angonjere umambo wace. (Sal. 2:1, 2, 4-12) Pontho lirimi yathu yadzakhala ninga ‘lapi ya munthu wakulemba mwadidi’ mu kuphatisira kakamwe Mafala akulembwa m’basa yathu yakumwaza mphangwa.
‘MAFALA AKUSIMBA AKUBULUKA NKANWA MWA MAMBO’
5. (a) Ndi mu njira ipi Yezu akhali “wakubalika”? (b) Kodi mafala adidi akhabuluka tani nkanwa mwa Mambo, pontho tinakwanisa tani kutowezera citsandzo cace?

Mwakukhonda penula ninga munthu waungwiro iye akhali “wakubalika.” Natenepa, kubalika kwace kakamwe kukhabulukira mu kukhulupirika kwace kwa Yahova na umumphu wace wakukhonda kufudzika. Mwakuthimizira, Yezu amwaza mphangwa za Umambo mwaufuni. (Luka 4:22; Jwau 7:46) Kodi ife tisawangisira kutowezera citsandzo cace m’basa yakumwaza mphangwa mbatiyesera kuphatisira mafala akuti anadzakhuya mitima ya anthu?—Akol. 4:6.
6. Kodi Yahova apasa tani nkhombo Yezu kwenda na kwenda?
6 Thangwi ya kuperekeka kwa Yezu, Yahova ampasa nkhombo mu utumiki wace pa dziko yapantsi, pontho ampasa sagwati pakumala kufa kwace ninga ntsembe. Mpostolo Paulu alemba: ‘Yezu acepeseka, mbatawira mpaka kufa, mpaka kufa pa muti. Thangwi ya ipyo Mulungu ankuza kakamwe, mban’thula dzina yakupiringana madzina anango onsene, toera pa kubva dzina ya Yezu, agodame ale a kudzulu, ale a pantsi pano ale ali mu nthumbi, onsenembo mbabvekese na malirimi awo kuti: Mbuya Yezu Kristu ali m’mbiri ya Mulungu Baba.’ (Afil. 2:8-11) Yahova apasa nkhombo Yezu kwenda na kwenda mu kumulamusa mwa akufa toera kukhala na umaso wakukhonda kufa.—Arom. 6:9.
MAMBO AKUZWA KAKAMWE KUPIRINGANA AMAMBO ‘ANDZACE’
7. Ndi mu njira zipi Mulungu akuza Yezu kupiringana amambo ‘andzace?’
7 Lerini Masalmo 45:6, 7. Yezu afuna kakamwe cilungamo mbaida pinthu pyonsene pyakuti mbipidaxola Babace, na thangwi ineyi, Yahova ansankhula ninga Mambo wa Umambo Waumesiya. Yezu asankhulwa mu kudzodzwa na mafuta kupiringana ‘amambo andzace’ Aciyuda akubulukira ku ubalwi wa Dhavidhi. Mu njira ipi? Njira ibodzi, Yezu asankhulwa na Yahova ekhene. Kusiyapo pyenepi, Yahova ansankhula toera kukhala ninga Mambo na Nyantsembe Wankulu. (Sal. 2:2; Aheb. 5:5, 6) Mwakuthimizira, Yezu nee asankhulwa kubulukira mu kudzodzwa na mafuta ninga amambo a Israele, mbwenye asankhulwa na nzimu wakucena. Umambo wace si wa pantsi pano tayu mbwenye wakudzulu.
8. Tinakwanisa tani kufokotoza kuti ‘Mulungu ndi mpando wa umambo wa Yezu?’ Thangwi yanji tisanyindira kuti umambo wace ndi waulungami?
8 Mu caka 1914, Yahova aikha Mwanace ninga Mambo Waumesiya kudzulu. Yezu anadzatonga ‘mbumba yace na cilungamo,’ natenepa tinakwanisa kunyindira kuti ndzidzi onsene mu utongi wace munadzakhala ulungami. Utongi wace ndi wandimomwene, nakuti ‘Mulungu ndiye adampasa mpando waumambo.’ Pyenepi pisabveka kuti Yahova ndiye adatomesa umambo wace. Natenepa, mpando wa umambo wa Yezu ‘unadzakhaliratu’ kwenda na kwenda. Kodi imwe musadzikuza kutumikira Yahova pantsi pa citsogolero ca Mambo wakusankhulwa na Mulungu?
MAMBO ‘AMANGA SUPADA YACE N’CUNO MWACE’
9, 10. (a) Kodi Kristu amanga lini supada yace, na mwakukhonda dembuka aiphatisira tani supada ineyi? (b) Kodi anaiphatisirambo tani ntsogolo?
9 Lerini Masalmo 45:3. Yahova apanga Mambo wace toera ‘kumanga supada yace n’cuno mwace,’ mu kutawirisa Yezu toera kumenya nkhondo na onsene anapingiza utongi ukulu wa Mulungu, pontho toera kutonga anyamalwa ace. (Sal. 110:2) Nakuti Kristu ndi Mambo wa Nkhondo wakukhonda kundwa, iye asalongwa ninga “Nyamphambvu.” Iye amanga supada yace mu caka 1914, na awina pakuthimbana na Sathani pabodzi na mademonyo ace, akuti aathamangisa kudzulu mbaaponya pantsi pano.—Apok. 12:7-9.
10 Pyenepi pikhali kuwina kwakutoma kwa Mambo wa Nkhondo. Iye asafunika kumalisa ‘kukunda anyamalwa ace.’ (Apok. 6:2) Kutonga miseru kwa Yahova kusafunika kucitwa kuna Sathani na dziko yace yonsene, pabodzi na mademonyo ace asafunika kufudzwa. Cinthu cakutoma toera kufudzwa cinadzakhala Babilonya Wankulu utongi wa dziko yonsene wa uphemberi waunthawatawa. Ndi cifuniro ca Yahova kuphatisira atongi andale toera kufudza ‘nkazi waupombo.’ (Apok. 17:16, 17) Buluka penepo, Mambo wa Nkhondo anadzafudza dziko yandale ya Sathani. Kristu wakuti asacemerwambo “anju wa materero [djendje] makulu,” anadzamalisa kuwina kwace mu kuponya n’djendje Sathani na mademonyo ace. (Apok. 9:1, 11; 20:1-3) Tendeni tione kuti Masalmo 45 isalonga tani pyakucitika pyenepi pyakutsandzayisa.
MAMBO AKUCITA NKHONDO THANGWI YA UNDIMOMWENE
11. Kodi Kristu akucita tani nkhondo thangwi ya undimomwene?
11 Lerini Masalmo 45:4, Tradução do Novo Mundo. Mambo wa nkhondo nee akucita nkhondo ya kuwina toera kukunda pisa na kutonga anthu. Iye akucita nkhondo na pifuno pya mbiri yadidi. Natenepa, iye akucita nkhondo ‘thangwi ya undimomwene, kucepeseka na ulungami.’ Undimomwene wakuti usafunika kutsidzikizwa kakamwe ndi wa utongi ukulu wa Yahova. Sathani apomokera ulinganiri wa utongi wa Yahova mu ndzidzi udapandukira iye Yahova. Kutomera penepo, pfuli ya undimomwene isapingizwa na mademonyo pabodzi na anthu. Cincino ndzidzi wafika wakuti Mambo wakudzodzwa wa Yahova acite nkhondo toera kukhazikisa pontho undimomwene wa utongi ukulu wa Yahova kwa anthu onsene.
12. Ndi mu njira ipi mambo akucita nkhondo thangwi ya kucepeseka?
12 Mambo akucitambo nkhondo thangwi ya kucepeseka. Ninga mwana m’bodzi ekha wa Mulungu, iye apereka citsandzo cadidi ca kucepeseka na kukhala wakukhulupirika ku utongi ukulu wa Babace. (Iza. 50:4, 5; Jwau 5:19) Anyakukhulupirika onsene a Mambo asafunika kutowezera citsandzo cace na kungonjera mwakucepeseka utongi ukulu wa Yahova mu pinthu pyonsene. Ale basi ene anacita pyenepi anadzatawiriswa toera kukhala mu dziko ipswa yakupikirwa na Mulungu.—Zak. 14:16, 17.
13. Kodi Kristu akucita tani nkhondo thangwi ya ulungami?
13 Kristu akucita nkhondo thangwi ya ulungami. Ulungami wakuti Mambo akuutsidzikiza ndi ulungami wa Mulungu unaphataniza midida ya Yahova yakusiyanisa cadidi na cakuipa. (Arom. 3:21; Deut. 32:4) Mprofeta Izaiya akhadalongeratu pya Mambo Yezu Kristu kuti: “Zinadzafika ntsiku zinafuna kuoneka ntongi wa ulinganiri kakamwe.” (Iza. 32:1) Umambo wa Yezu unatomesa “thambo [kudzulu] ipswa” na ‘pantsi pano papswa,’ padapikirwa, mwenemo ‘munadzakhala ulungami.’ (2 Ped. 3:13) Anthu onsene a mu dziko ineyi ipswa anadzaphatisira midida ya Yahova.—Iza. 11:1-5.
MAMBO AKUKWANIRISA ‘KUKUNDA KWACE KUKULU’
14. Kodi nkono wa madyo wa Kristu unakwanirisa tani “kukunda kukulu”? (Onani cithundzithundzi cakutoma.)
14 Mu ndzidzi unacita iye nkhondo, Mambo amangira supada n’cuno mwace. (Sal. 45:3) Mbwenye ndzidzi wace wakwana toera kukwata supada na kuiphatirira na nkono wace wa madyo. Nyamasalmo alongeratu kuti: “Mphambvu zako zinakupasa kukunda kukulu.” (Sal. 45:4) Mu ndzidzi unacita Yezu nkhondo ya kutonga kwa Yahova pa Harmagedoni, iye anadzakwanirisa “kukunda kukulu” mu kuthimbana na anyamalwa ace. Ife nkhabe kudziwa pida pinafuna kuphatisira Yezu toera kufudza makhaliro a pinthu a Sathani. Mbwenye nkhondo ineyi inadzagopesa mitima ya anthu a pa dziko yapantsi akuti nee akhabvesera cenjezo ya Mulungu toera kungonjera Ntongi wa umambo. (Lerini Masalmo 2:11, 12.) Mu profesiya yace thangwi ya ntsiku zakumalisa, Yezu alonga kuti ‘anthu anadzawuma na kugopa, pa kudikhira pinthu pinafuna kudza pantsi ponsene, thangwi mphambvu za kudzulu zinadzatekenyeka, adzamale anthu anadzaona Mwana munthu ali kudza na mphambvu na mbiri ikulu m’makole.’—Luka 21:26, 27.
15, 16. Mbani “anyankhondo” akuti anadzatowerera Kristu pakucita nkhondo?
15 Mu kudziwisa kubwera kwa Mambo ‘na mphambvu na mbiri’ toera kudzatonga miseru, bukhu ya Apokalipse isalonga: ‘Ndidzamale ndaona thambo yakufunguka, mbandionanji? Ndaona kavalo m’bodzi wakucena. Munthu anakhala pa nsana pace, anathulwa wakukhulupirika na wakulungama. Iye anacita nkhondo mbatongambo na ulungami. Mwinji wa anyankhondo akudzulu a kukhala pa makavalo akucena wantowera mbubvala nguwo zakufewa zakucena. Nkanwa mwace mwabuluka supada yakutwa, toera amenye nayo mbumba za anthu mbadzitonga na ndodo ya utale. Ndiye anaponda vinyu mu combo ca ukali wa Mulungu wakutonga pyonsene.’—Apok. 19:11, 14, 15.
16 Kodi mbani anyankhondo “a kudzulu” akuti anadzakhala atowereri a Kristu mbantowerera pakucita nkhondo? Mu ndzidzi udamanga Yezu supada yace toera kuthamangisa Sathani pabodzi na mademonyo ace kudzulu,Yezu akhali pabodzi “na aanju ace.” (Apok. 12:7-9) Natenepa pisaoneka kukhala pyakuthema kulonga kuti pa nkhondo ya Harmagedoni, anyankhondo a Kristu anadzaphataniza aanju akucena. Kodi pa anyankhondo anewa panadzaphatanizwambo anango? Yezu apikira kuna abale ace akudzodzwa kuti: ‘Uyu anakunda anyamalwa ace mu nkhondo, mbaphata mabasa anga mpaka ku nkhomo yakumalisa, ine ndinadzampasa mphambvu za kutonga anthu akukhonda kukhulupira. Penepo iye anadzaatonga na ndodo ya utale, mbaaswa ninga pyombo pya dongo.’ (Apok. 2:26, 27) Natenepa anyankhondo akudzulu a Kristu anadzaphatanizambo abale ace akudzodzwa, ale anadzatambira miyoni yawo kudzulu. Anyakutonga andzace akudzodzwa anadzakhala ku khundu yace mu ndzidzi unakwanirisa iye “kukunda kukulu” mbadzatonga madzindza a anthu na ndodo ya utale.
MAMBO AKUKWANIRISA KUWINA KWACE
17. (a) Kodi kavalo wakucena adakwira Kristu asaimiriranji? (b) Kodi supada na uta pisaimiriranji?
17 Lerini Masalmo 45:5. Mambo akwira pa kavalo wakucena mbaimirira nkhondo. Pyenepi ndi pyakucena na pyakulungama pamaso pa Yahova. (Apok. 6:2; 19:11) Kusiyapo supada, iye akwatambo uta. Tisaleri tenepa: ‘Ine ndaona kavalo wakucena na munthu m’bodzi pa nsana pace. Munthu uyu akhali na uta, mbapaswa nthimba. Iye aenda kakunda anyamalwa ace mu nkhondo toera kuakunda sawasawa ninga mudaakundira iye kale.’ Supada na uta pisaimirira pinthu pinafuna kudzaphatisira Kristu pakutonga anyamalwa ace.
18. Kodi mapswimo a Kristu asapangiza tani kuti ndi ‘akutwa?’
18 Nyamasalmo alongeratu kuti ‘mibvi peno mapswimo a Mambo ndi akutwa mbaphola anyamalwa ace,’ pontho ‘asacitisa mbumba kugwa pa miyendo yace.’ Ciropa cinadzadzala pa dziko yonsene yapantsi. Profesiya ya Yeremiya yalongeratu: ‘Pa ntsiku zenezi, anthu akuphiwa na Yahova anadzakhala phwataku-phwataku pantsi ponsene.’ (Yer. 25:33) Profesiya inango yakulandana isalonga: ‘Ndidzamale ndaona anju m’bodzi wakulimira padzulu pa dzuwa mbalonga kuli mbalame zonsene zikhamburuka pakati pa thambo mbati: bwerani kuno, gumanyikani pa phwando ikulu ya Mulungu. Mudzadye manungo a amambo, manungo a akadamu a anyankhondo, manungo a anyamphambvu, nyama za makavalo, manungombo a anyakukwira pa makavalo. Mudzadye manungo a onsene a afulu na a adzakazi, a akulu na a ang’ono.’—Apok. 19:17, 18.
19. Kodi Kristu ‘anadzakunda tani nkhondo,’ pontho anadzamalisa tani kuwina kwace?
19 Pakumala kufudza makhaliro ano akuipa a pinthu a Sathani pa dziko yapantsi, Kristu ‘m’mbiri yace anadzakunda nkhondo.’ (Sal. 45:4) Iye anadzamalisa kuwina kwace mu kuponya n’djendje Sathani na mademonyo ace mu Utongi wace wa Pyaka Cikwi pyamumphu. (Apok. 20:2, 3) Mu kuponywa n’djendje kwa Dyabo na aanju ace akuipa, anthu a pa dziko yapantsi nkhabe kudzakhuiwa na makhaliro a Sathani, pontho iwo anadzangonjera mwakukwana Mambo wawo wakuwina na wa mbiri. Mbadzati kuona kucinja kwa dziko yonsene yapantsi kukhala paradizu, anthu a pa dziko yapantsi anadzakhala na thangwi inango toera kutsandzaya na cakucitika ca Mambo wawo na anyakutonga andzace a kudzulu. Cakucitika ceneci cakutsandzayisa cinadzadingwa mu nsolo unatowerera.
