CHITSAUKO 3—NGUVA YERIMA GURU MUCHINAMATO

Mutsamba yake yechipiri kuVaTesaronica, Mupostori Pauro akaporofita kurasika kukuru kwaizouya kuchitungamirira kuzogadzwa kwehutongi hwaPapa. Pauro akataura pachena kuti zuva raKristu raisazosvika “ kana kutsauka kusati kwatanga kuvuya, nomunhu wezvivi, mwanakomana wokurashika, asati amboonekwa, iye anorwa achizvikudza pamusoro pezvose zvinonzi Mwari, kana zvinonamatwa, nokudaro kuti unogara mutemberi yaMwari, achizviidza Mwari.” Anoenderera mberi, achipa mashoko eyambiro kuhama dzake ekuti, “chakavanzika chezvivi chotobata basa” 2 VaTesaronika 2:3,4,7. Kunyangwe mumazuva ekutanga iwayo, Pauro akaona dzidziso dzenhemha dzichiita kaverevere kupinda muKereke, dzaizogadzirira nzvimbo yekugadzwa kwehutongi hwaPapa. KK 38.1

Zvishoma nezvishoma, dzidziso idzi dzakabata ndangariroro dzevanhu, pakutanga zvakanga zvakavanzika, asi gare gare zvakava pachena kuti “chakavanzika chokurashika”, chakafambira mberi nebasa racho rekunyengera nekumhura Mwari. Dzidziso dzechihedheni, dakapinda zvakavanzika mukereke yeChiKristu. Mweya wekurerutsa zvinhu zvaMwari, nekuda kufanana nenyika wakambotadza kubata kereke mumazuva ekutambudzwa nehutongi hwechihedheni, asi pakazopera nguva yekushungurudzwa iyi, apo chiKristu chakatanga kupindawo mumatare nemudzimba dzemadzimambo, Kereke yechiKristu yakatanga kusiya hunhu hwaKristu nevadzidzi vake, ikagamuchira kuzvikudza nembiri ye vatongi nevaprisita vechihedheni, zvinova zvakazoita kuti panzvimbo yezvimiso zvaMwari, paiswe dzidziso dzevanhu netsika dzemadzibaba. Kutendeuka kwekunyepera kwakaitwa naConstantine, mumakore ekuvamba kweSenjuri yechina, kwakagashirwa nemhemberero huru, asiwo ndipo nyika yakafamba yakapfeka nhumbi dzehutsvene ichipinda mukereke yaJesu. Ipapo kuwora kwakafamba nekukasika kuchiwodza kereke. Chihedheni chakambenge chaita kunge chakundwa, chakabva chava ndicho chakakurira, mweya wacho ukatanga kutungamirira sangano Dzidziso dzechihedheni, mitambo yacho netsika zvakagashirwa muchinamato chechiKristu,nevanhu vaizviti vateveri vaKristu. KK 38.2

Mubatanidzwa wakavepo pakati pechiKristu nechihedheni ndiwo wakatungamirira kuumbwa kwe “ Murume wezvivi”, akanga agara aporofitwa kuti achapikisana naMwari nekuzvigadza pamusoro paMwari. Chirukwa ichi chikuru-kuru kwazvo, chekunamata kwakatsauka, chakagadzirwa nehunyanzvi naSatani pachake. Ndicho chinova shongwe yesimba rake pakutsvaga kuzvigadza pachigaro kuti atonge nyika ino semadiro ake. KK 38.3

Satani akamboedza kuda kugadzira mubatanidzwa naKristu. Akasvika kuMwanakomana waMwari paakanga ari murenje rekuedzwa, akamuratidza umambo hwose hwepanyika nekubwinya kwahwo, akamuvimbisa kumupa ihwo kana bedzi akatenda kuti muchinda werima ndiye mukuru. Kristu akaraira muzviitisi nemuyedzi uyu kuti abve paari, asi nhasi Satani anokurira vanhu vazhinji nemuyedzo umwechetewo. Nengariyekuda kukudzwa nenyika uye mbiri, Kereke yakatsvaga rutsigiro rwevatongi venyika, ikaramba Kristu, ndokubva zvaita kuti izvipe kumumiririri wasatani- anova Bhishopi weRome. KK 38.4

Imwe yedzidziso huru muchitendero chechiRoma ndeyekuti Papa ndiye mumiririri anoonekwa uye musoro weKereke yaKristu., uyewo ndiye akapiwa simba guru pamusoro pevafundisi vose nemabhishopi panyika yose. Pamusoro pazvo, Papa ndiye akapiwa zita chairo rechimiro chehutsvene nehumwari. Anoidaidzwa kuti “Ishe Mwari Papa”, uye anonzi haagoni kukanganisi. Anofanira kukudzwa navanhu vose. Zvimwechete zvaikarirwa naSatani murenje rekuyedzwa muya, ndizvo zvaarikutsvaga kuburikidza nesangano reRoma, uye vanhu vazhinji kwazvo vakazvimisira kumuteeera nekumukudza. KK 39.1

Asi avo vanotya nekushumira Mwari vanoramba dzidziso idzi sekuramba kwakaita Kristu pachake kunamata satani muvengi. “Namata Ishe Mwari wako, umushumire iye oga.”Luke 4:8. Mwari haana kumbobvira apa munongedzo mushoko rake wekuti akagadza munhu kuti ave musoro weSangano rake. Dzidziso yehukuru hwaPapa inopikisana nezvakanyorwa mumagwaro matsvene. Papa haagoni kuva nesimba pamusoro peSangano kunze kwekunge azvipa ega. Sangano reRoma rinogaro pomera maSangano akaratidzira ndokubuda mariri mhosva yekupandukira sangano rechokwadi. Asi mhosva iyi chokwadi ndechekuti inobata iro sangano racho. Ivo veRoma ndivo vakatsveta pasi mureza waKristu vakabva “Pakutenda kwakadeya kupiwa vatendi kamwe”. Jude 3 KK 39.2

Satani akaziva kwazvo kuti Magwaro Matsvene achabatsira vanhu kuona nzira dzake dzinonyengedza uye kuramba kuva pasi pesimba rake. Kuburikidzwa neBhaibheri-Shoko, Muponesi wedu akagona kudzivisa Satani. Paakavingwa nasatani pese, Kristu aishandisa chidzitiro chezvokwadi isigaperi achiti “kwakanyorwa kuchinzi“. Panezvose Satani kuti agone kuramba akabata mdangariro dzevanhu, uye kuti simba raPapa rirambe richitonga, anofanira kuramba achita kuti vanhu vasava nehanya neshoko raMwari. Bhaibheri rinosimudzira Mwari ukuwo richiisa munhu panzvimbo yake chaiyo; naizvozvo, kuna Satani, zvokwadi iyi inofanira kuvigwa nekutsikirirwa kuti isazikanwa. Kafungiro aka ndiko kakatorwa nesangano reRoma. Kwemazana emakore, Bhaibheri rakarambidzwa. Vanhu vakarambidzwa kuriverenga kana kuva naro mudzimba dzavo, ukuwo vadzidzisi nevaprisita vachidzidzisa zvisizvo kuti vachengetedze zvigaro zvavo. Izvi zvakaita kuti Papa agashirwe potse pasi rose achinzi ndiye mutevedzeri/ mumiririri waMwari panyika, aine samba pamusoro peKereke nezvematongerwo enyika. KK 39.3

Sezvo Bhaibheri, rinogona kuonesa manyepo rakanga rabviswa panzvimbo yaro, Satani akashanda madiro ake. Chiporofita chakanga chareva kare kuti simba raPapa raizo “ funga kushandura nguva nemirairo.” Daniel 7:25. Basa iri harina kunonoka kuedza kuitwa. Senzira yekuedza kugashira vaitendeuka vachibva kuchihedheni kuti vawane chinamato chingagashirika kwavari, muKereke yeChiKristu makaunzwa tsika yekunamata zvifananidzo netsika dzakare. Musangano wakagarwa wevatungamiri ukapasimba kutsika yekunamatwa kwezvifananidzo mukereke. Kuti sangano reRoma rizadzise kugona kwaro kushandura zvinhu, rakatora danho rekuedza kushadura murairo nekubvisa pamitemo gumi yaMwari murairo wechipiri, unorambidza kunamatwa kwezvifananidzo, panzvimbo yawo ndokubva papatsanurwa mutemo wechigumi kuita mitemo miviri, izvi kurikuedza kuchengetedza nhamba yemitemo kuti irambe iri gumi. KK 39.4

Mweya wekuwirirana nekugashira chihedheni wakavhura masuwo ekumhurwa kwemasimba eDenga. Satani, kuburikidza achishanda nevatungamiri vanokudzwa veSangano, akanobata-bata pamutemo wechinawo zvakare, ndokubva aita kuti Sabata rekare ribviswe hutsvene hwaro nekuiswa parutivi, rinova zuva rakayereswa naMwari rikaropafadzwa (Genesis 2:2,3) , panzvimbo yaro pakasimudzirwa zuva rekutanga kwevhiki rinova raikosheswa muchinamato chevahedheni richinzi “rekunamatwa kweZuva”. Shanduko iyi haina kungotanga yaitwa pachena, kwete. Mumakore ekutanga Sabata rakanga richichengetwa nemaKristu ese. Vakanga vaine godo nekuchengetedza kunamatwa kwaMwari kwazvokwadi, vachitenda kuti murairo wake haushanduki, saka vainyatsocherechedza zvakatemwa naMwari mushoko rake. Asi nekunyengera kukuru, satani akashanda kuburikidza nevashandiri vake kuunza shanduko yaaida. Kuti vanhu vagashire Svondo sezuva rinoera, rakaitwa kuti rinzi izuva rakaereswa nekuda kwekumuka kwaKristu kubva muguva nezuva iri. KK 40.1

Marusando ezvekunamata akatanga kuitwa nezuva iri, asi pakutanga painzi izuva rekuita zvekuzvivaraidza, ukuwo Sabata chairo richichengetwa nehutsvene hwaro. KK 40.2

Mukugadzirira kwake basa raazoita mberi, Satani akanga aita kuti vaJudha, mumakore ekumashure Kristu asati auya, varemedze vanhu nemutoro wemitemo yekuchegetwa kwesabata yairema kwazvo yavaigadzira ivo. Saka zvino Satani akachizoshandisa izvi senzira yekuzvidza Sabata richinzi itsika yevaJudha. Apo maKristu vakaenderera mberi vachitora Svondo sezuva remitambo yekuzvivaraidza, Satani akavatungamirira kuti vaite pfungwa yekuzvidza Sabata sezuva remaJudha, saka senzira yekuratidza ruvengo rwavo kumaJudha, vaifanira kumhura Sabata saka rakabva raitwa zuva rekutsanya, kusuwa, nekusuruwara. KK 40.3

Muchikamu chekutanga cheSenjuri yechina, mutongi wehurumemnde ainzi Constantine akatema chirevo chaiti Svondo rakange rave zuva rezororo muhushe hweRome hwese. Musi wekunamatwa kweZuva uyu wakayereswa nevanhu vainamata zvifananidzo uyewo ukaremekedzwa nemaKristu; iyi ikava nzira yaConstantine yekubatanidza Vahedheni nemaKristu anova mativi maviri aimborwisana kare. Constantine akakurudzirwa kuita izvi nevatungamiri (mabhishopi) vesangano rechiKristu, avo vaisundwa nenyota yavo yekuda hukuru nekukudzwa, vachiziva kuti kana izvi zvikabudirira, zvaizoita kuti vahedheni vagashire chiKristu, zvozoita kuti Kereke ive nesimba nembiri. Asiwo kunyangwe zvazvo maKristu aitya Mwari vakatungamirirwa kugashira Svondo sezuva rakayereswa, vakarambawo vachichengeta Sabata remutemo wechina sezvinoreva murairo waMwari. KK 40.4

Munyengeri mukuru akanga asati apedza basa rake. Akatsvaga kuisa maKristu ese pasi pehutongi hwake achishandisa kuzvikudza kwamambo weSangano reRome anonzi Papa, aizviedza mumiririri waKristu panyika. Kuburikidza nevanhu vakanga vasina kutendeuka zvakazara, uyewo kuburikidzawo nevatungamiri vesanagno vaida zvenyika, Satani akafambisa mberi chinagwa chake. Misangano mikuru yakagarwa nguva nenguva, apo vanoremekedzwa veSangano vaiungana vachibva kumativi ese enyika. Pamusangano wega wega waigarwa, Sabata rinoyera raMwari raitsikirirwa pasi zvishoma nezvishoma, ukuwo Svondo, zuva rekutanga revhiki richisimudzidrwa nenzira imwecheteyo. Pakupedzisira, zuva iri revahendheni rakazokudzwa rikayereswa navanhu, apo Sabata raMwari rakaraswa richinzi itsika yekare yemaJudha, uye vateveri varo vakanzi vapari vemhosva. KK 40.5

Kurashika kukuru kwakanga zvino kwazadziswa nekuzvisimudzira “ pamusoro pezvose zvinonzi Mwari uye zvinonamatwa” 2 Vatesaronika 2:4. Akanga zvino azvipira kushandura murairo iwo wega pamitemo mitsvene unonongedzera vanhu vese kunaMwari mupenyu wezvokwadi. Mumutemo wechina, Mwari anonongedzwa kuti ndiye musiki wedenga nenyika, obva atsaurwa kubva kuvamwari venhema. Zuva rechinomwe rakatsaurwa rikayereswa sezororo remunhu kuti rive muranagridzo webasa rekusika. Ranga rakaitirwa kuti rirambe raichiyeuchidza vanhu kuti Mwari ndiye anofanira kunamatwa nekupiwa mbiri. Satani arikurwisa kuti abvise vanhu kubva kunaMwari, uye kuti vasateerera mitemo yaMwari, saka anonyanya kuisa samba rake pakuputsa mutemo wechina unova ndiwo unonongedza kuti Mwari ndiye musiki. KK 41.1

Masanagano echiProtestant nhasi avekutenda kuti rumuko rwaKristu nezuva rekutanga kwevhiki (Svondo),rwakaita kuti richiva ndiro Sabata remaKristu. Asi izvi hazvina rutsigiro rweMagwaro Matsvene. Hakuna rukudzo rwezuva iri rwakapiwa naKristu pachake kana nevadzidzi vake. Kuchengetwa kweSvondo sezuva raKristu kunemanyuko ako kubva “munechakavanzika chokusarurama’ (2 VaTesaronika 2:7, R,V) ., icho chakanga chotobate basa kunyangwe mumazuva aPauro. Ndekupi uye ndiirini apo Kristu akazogamuchira chiito chaPapa ichi? Ndezvipi zvikonzero zvinobatika zvingapiwa kuti zvitsigire shanduko iyi zvisingatsigirwi neMagwaro Matsvene? KK 41.2

MuSenjuri yeChitanhatu, hushe hwaPapa hwakanga hwasimba. Chigaro chake nesimba zvakanga zviine muzinda muguta remadzishe rinokudzwa, zvekuti Bhishopi weRome akabva anzi ndiye musoro weKereke yese. Chihedheni zvino chakanga chapa masimba kunaPapa. Nyoka yakanga zvino yapa chikara “simba rayo, nechigaro chayo chovushe, namasimba makuru’ Zvakazarurwa 13:2. Apa ndipo panotangira makore anechiuru namazana maviri namakumi matanhatu (1260) ekutonga kwaPapa nehudzvinyiriri sezvakaporofitwa mubhuku ya Dhanieri naZvakazarurwa. (Danieri 7:25; Zvakazarurwa 13:5-7) MaKristu panguva iyi vakamanikidzwa kusarudza pakati pekunamata Mwari sezviri muShoko kana kugashira mitambo nechinamato chaidzidziswa naPapa, kana kufa vachitambura munajeri,kana kutouraiwa chaiko neminondo nematemo. Apa ndipo pakazadziswa mashoko aJesu ekuti “muchaiswa kuvatongi kunyange vavabereki, navanun’una, nehama, neshamwari, vamwe venyu vachaurawa. Muchavengwa navanhu vose nokuda kwezita rangu” Luke 21:16,17. Kutambudzwa kwakamukazve pamusoro pevakatendeka nehasha huru dzinopfuura pamazuva ekare, nyika yose ikava nzvimbo yekurwa. Kwemazana emakore, Sangano raMwari rakawana pekuvanda munzvimbo dziri pakavanzika. Muporofita anotaura achiti “Mukadzi akatizira kurenje, paakagadzirirwa nzvimbo naMwari, kuti vamuchengetepo mazuva anechiuuru chinamazana maviri namakumi matanhatu” Zvakazarurwa 12:6. KK 41.3
