\u201c"Na bila shaka siri ya utauwa ni kubwa: Mungu alidhihirishwa katika mwili, akahesabiwa haki katika Roho, akaonekana na malaika, akahubiriwa miongoni mwa Mataifa, akaaminiwa katika ulimwengu, akachukuliwa juu katika utukufu."\u201d
1 Timotheo 3:16<\/strong><\/em><\/p>

Ufafanuzi wa utauwa ambao tumekuwa tukitumia ni: "mtindo wa maisha unaoakisi tabia ya Mungu kila mara." Tabia hii inaonyeshwa kikamilifu katika maisha ya Bwana Yesu Kristo.<\/p>

Paulo anatumia kifungu cha maneno, \u201cFumbo la utauwa ni kuu.\u201d Neno nzuri<\/em> ndio chanzo cha kiambishi awali chetu cha Kiingereza kubwa<\/em>, ikibeba wazo la kitu kikubwa au kikubwa kwa maana pana zaidi. Hii inasisitiza jinsi ukweli huu ulivyo muhimu\u2014ukweli ambao hapo awali ulikuwa umefichwa lakini sasa umefunuliwa katika nafsi ya Bwana Yesu Kristo. Ni muhimu kuelewa maisha ya utauwa wa kweli.<\/p>

Usemi huu, \u201cMkuu,\u201d unapingana kabisa na kile ambacho Timotheo angesikia alipokuwa Efeso: \u201cDiana wa Waefeso ni mkuu!\u201d (Matendo 19:28, 34, 35). Ibada ya Diana ilionyeshwa kwa ibada ya sanamu na uasherati. Tofauti iliyoje tuliyo nayo mbele yetu katika mstari wetu! Tabia ya kweli ya utauwa inaonekana katika Bwana Yesu Kristo aliyebarikiwa.<\/p>

Siri hii ya utauwa inapaswa kushikiliwa na wale \u201cwanaoshikilia siri ya imani kwa dhamiri safi\u201d (1 Tim. 3:9). Inarejelea ukweli mkuu wa wokovu na haki inayopatikana kupitia Kristo, ambayo huzaa utauwa kwa wale wanaoamini.<\/p>

Paulo anaendelea kutukumbusha kwamba utauwa huu ulionyeshwa kikamilifu katika mwili wa Kristo, katika kuzaliwa kwake, na katika maisha makamilifu aliyoishi kwa ajili ya utukufu wa Mungu. Alikuwa dhihirisho la kufanana kikamilifu na Mungu.<\/p>

"Alihesabiwa haki katika Roho," ikimaanisha kwamba katika huduma yake ya hadharani Roho wa Mungu aliendelea kumthibitisha Yeye alikuwa nani. "Alionekana na malaika" - kabla na wakati wa kuzaliwa Kwake, baada ya majaribu Yake nyikani, wakati wa kufufuka Kwake, na hata sasa, malaika wanapoendelea kumtii.<\/p>

"Anahubiriwa miongoni mwa Mataifa" kote ulimwenguni, ambapo umati wa watu umemjua kama Bwana na Mwokozi. Hatimaye, tunasoma kwamba "alichukuliwa juu katika utukufu," akimaanisha kupaa kwake mbinguni. Amepita katika mbingu (Ebr. 4:14\u201316) na ameketi mkono wa kuume wa Mungu hadi adui zake watakapowekwa kuwa kiti cha miguu chake.<\/p>

Uungu wa kweli hauonekani tu katika Mtu huyu aliyebarikiwa alipokuwa hapa duniani; Yeye pia ndiye chanzo cha uungu unaoonekana katika maisha yako na yangu.<\/p>

Mtangazaji wa Leo:<\/strong>
Ni pale tu tunaposhughulika naye ndipo Roho wa Mungu atakapozalisha utauwa huu ndani yetu. Ni kweli kufanana na Kristo tunapobadilishwa na kufananishwa na mfano wake uliobarikiwa.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
