Ebaruha erikwetorooraOkw`ikumi n`ebiri 1997

Endamutsyo ez`omutaano ahari imw mweena omu nsi yoona omu iziina rya Yesu Kristo n`ekyahandiikirwe eki ekiri kworeka amatsiko hamwe n`okwenda kw`abaikiriza boona aba mazima:

“Kandi nitubagambira eki, tukigambiirwe MUKAMA waitu, ngu itwe abahurire abarishangwa bakiriho aha kiro ky`okwija kwa MUKAMA, tituribandiza abo abaagwejegyeire. Ahakuba MUKAMA aryeimukira ashuume naaruga omu iguru agambe munonga n`eiraka rya maraika omukuru n`enzamba ya Ruhanga; kandi abaafeeereire omuri Kristo nibo baribanza kuzooka; bwanyima naitwe abahuriire abariba bakiriho turyatwarwa nabo omu bicu kubugana MUKAMA waitu omu kaabunga; tutyo tugume na MUKAMA ebiro byona. N`ahabw`ekyo muhuumurizane n`ebigambo ebyo.” (1 Abatesalinika 4:15-18).

Okutebereza okwakozirwe emyaka enkumi ibiri enyima tikwakiriira ga haihi n`okuhikiriira nk`oku kiri hati. Eki ekyafaayo eki eky`amaani nikiija kubaho gye omu muriingi kandi omu buteeka nk`oku kyahandiikirwe. Envunuura ahari kyo tizirikweteengwa n`akakye. MUKAMA owaazokire owatwiirwe omu iguru omu buntu omu maisho g`abeegi (Luka 24:50-51) naija kugaruka omu muriingo nigwo gumwe (Ebyakozirwe 1:11), kandi abo abakwikiriza kutebekanisibwa nibaija kuhindurwa, nk`oku Yahamiibwe (Matayo 17:2), kandi bakatunga obutahwaho bwabo (1 Abakorisno 15:49-54) nk`oku yaakikozire omu kuzooka. Batyo bwanyima nibiija kuba ngu Ari, “… kwonka nitumanya, ngu ku arishuuruurwa, turyashushana nawe, ahabw`okuba turyareeba nk`oku ari.” (1 Yohaana 3:1-2).

Tihariho nyegyesa eri kworekwa nk`okushuuruurirwa eribaasa kwiija, kureka We wenyine niwe aryeizira. Kishwera aryatwaara omugore we aha bugyenyi bw`okutaasya. Aryaija kutwaarwa omu aha iguru, abugane na MUKAMA omu mwanya kandi agume nawe ebiro n`ebiro (1 Abatesalonika 4). Ekibuuzo nikiguma kiri yaaba buri omwe omuri itwe ayetebekanise gye (Matayo 25:1-10) kandi ari owa omugore w`omwana gw`entaama kwejumbira omhu bugyenyi bw`okushwera (Okushuuruurirwa 19:7-10).

Okuhamisiriza tikuri aha ahari eki kyafaayo ekikuru akyahikire haihi kureka aha ahari ekyo kyonyine, “ahabw`eki nitubagambira omu kigambo kya MUKAMA…” N`ahabw`ekyo enshonga yoona n`enyegyesa eyegamiire ebyahandiikirwe ebiri kweera. Omu nimwo obuhamizo buri. Naangwa, ebintu byona ebiri kukwata aha ntebekanisa y`okujuna eri kubaho nk`oku yagambirwe omu kigambo kya Ruhanga.

Ahabw`Ekigambo kya MUKAMA Petero akaba akira kugamba omu matebezo ge ag`okubanza aha kikwatireine n`okushukwaho kw`Omwoyo Orikwera, “Eki nikyo ekyo ekyagambirwe kurabira omuri nabi Yoeli…” (Ebyakozirwe 2:1b). Ahabw`Ekigambo kya MUKAMA kaba agamba omu itebezo rye eryakabiri, ngu ebyo byona ebintu, ebi Ruhanga omu kubanza yaayorekire n`akanwa k`abaanabi be, biine kuhikiriira (Ebyakozirwe 3:18). Omu kakwaate ako okureeba hare omu maisho, akagamba aha kwteisa kandi okwa … obunaku bw`okwegarura butsya omuriija omu maisho ga MUKAMA; kandi Aryayohereza Yesu Kristo, ou omu kubaanza yaababuriirweho… (enyiriri 19-20). Aho bwanyima akagamba Ekigambo eki ekyiine eki kirikumanyisa ahari abo boona abategyerize okugaruka kwa Yesu Kristo, “ou eiguru rishemereire kwakiira, okuhitsya obunaku bw`okugaruramu ebintu byona obusya, obu Ruhanga yaabaire agambira omu kanwa ka baanabi be abarikwera abaabaire bariho okuruga aha kuhangwa kw`ensi.” (orunyiriri ra 21).

Ekihandiiko eky`ebyahandiikirwe tweena nikituwataho. N`ekiragiro ky`obwa Ruhanga. Okugaruka kwa Yesu Kristo kutakabiireho ebintu byona bishemereire kugarurwa butsya omu buteeka bwabyo obwabaandize. Ekanisa y`omugore eshemereire kugarurwayo aha musiingye gw`entumwa hamwe n`abaanabi ahu We wenyine ari eibare erikuru ery`obuhamizo (Abaefeso 2:20-22) kandi, naangwa, eibaare ery`aha mutwe (Zek. 4:7). Gashemereire kuba amazima ngu enyegyesa hamwe n`amagara gaabo boona ab`ekanisa ya Ruhanga ohuriire nibikiriirizana n`ekigambo, buri omwe omu magara age ag`obutoosha, omu bushweere, omu magara g`omumaka nanga n`omu magara g`ekanisa yoona. Abantu ba Ruhanga bashemereire kuba omwe omu Kigambo kya Ruhanga. Entumwa Yakobo akagamba aha kwiija kwa MUKAMA. Hona nabwe akahandiika n`aha njura ey`eibiba hamwe n`eyigyesha eshemereire kwiija okusharuura kutakabiireho (eshuura ya 5). Nabi Yoeli akakiraguraho kandi naangwa n`okugarurwa butsya (Eshuura 2:23-27).

Ekigambo eky`obunabi ekya MUKAMA tikiri kwiija aha muriisa nari aha mubirizi w`engiri, nibakibuuriraho. Bwanyima y`okukwatanisa kw`obwa Ruhanga Ekigambo kya MUKAMA nikiija hari nabi – omuhereza hamwe n`entumwa (baefeso 3:5) – naangwa n`omu ndagaano enstya nk`oku kyaragwiirwe MUKAMA Yesu Kristo, “N`ahabw`ekyo niinyija kubatumaho baanabi n`abanyabwengye n`abahandiiki; abamwe aharibo muryabaita, abandi muryababamba…” (Matayo 23:24). Bwanyima y`okuragura oku kw`amaani eki abo abatumirwe We nibiija kubonabonesibwa, MUKAMA waitu omu kushaaaha kw`amaani akagira, “Yerusaalemu, Yerusaalemu, iota baanabi, okateera abarikukutumwaho amabaare!” (orunyiriri rwa 37). Ruhanga atererize omu kanisa Ye entumwa, baanabi, abashomesa, n`abandi n`abandi. (1 Abakorinso 12:28; Abaefeso 4:11). Kwonka buri obunabi bwa Bibuli ku burikuhikiriira nabaasa kuba nabi owaraganisiibwe ou Ekigambo kishuuruurirwe. Ruhanga naakora bwanyima ya nabi owatiirweho ensi etakabiireho okwimuka nk`oku entebekanisa y`okujuna. Ba nabi abamazima bonka biine OKWO NIKWO MUKAMA ARIKUGIRA. Abandi biine envunuura zabo.

Ahabw`Ekigambo kya MUKAMA Yohaana Omubatiza akaba agira, “Ndi eiraka ery`orukugambira omu ihamba…“ (Yohaana 1:23), n`ahabw`ekyo Omwoyo Arikwera agambire n`akanwa ka nabi Isaaya (40:3). Omuri Matayo 11:9-10 MUKAMA waitu akahamya obuhereza bw`anabi owaraganisiibwe. AKATANDIKA n`ekibuuzo, “Beitu mukatwarwayo ki? Okureeba nabi? Eego, nimbagambira nti: Buzima naakiriria kimwe nabi…” tikiri “kukira mushaija”, kwonka kukira baanabi abarangiriire ekyafaayo eki eky`amaani.

Boona ba nabi ab`endagaano enkuru bakaba biine ekintu kimwe ekiri kubagaita: Bakaragura aha kwiija kwa Masiya. Entaaniso eri omu nshonga ngu Yohaana akaba ari nabi owaraganisiibwe owatebekaniise omuhanda gwa MUKAMA, akabatiza Masiya kandi yamwanjurira abantu “… abantu boona baikirize ahabwe.” (Yohaana 1:7). “Mumanye ngu ogu niwe nabi Isaaya yaagambireho, obu yaagira ati: Eiraka ry`orikugambira omu iahamba ati: Mushemeze omuhanda gwa MUKAMA, mugorore otuhanda twe.” (Matayo 3:3). N`ahabw`ekyo akaba naakirira kimwe ba nabi b`endagaano enkuru.

MUKAMA Akagaruka Yaajurira obuhereza bwe, “kandi ogwo niwe owaahandiikirweho ngu, Reeba, nintuma entumwa yangye, ekubandize; niyo erishemeza omuhanda gwawe…” (Matayo 11:10; Malaki 3:1).

Luka naagira, “Ebiragiro na Baanabi bikaba biriho okuhitsya omu biro bya Yohaana; okuruga obwo enkuru nungi ey`obukama bwa Ruhanga ebuurirwa, kandi omuntu weena abutaahamu n`amaani.” (16:16)

Ahabw`Ekigambo kya MUKAMA Yohaana akaba agira, “Nyowe nimbabatiza n`amaizi ahabw`okweteisa, kwonka orikwija enyima yangye nankiza obushoboorozi; kandi tinshemereire na kumukwatira enkaito; We aryababatiza n`Omwoyo Orikwera n`omuriro.” (Matayo 3:11) Arikuugambaho akagira, “Reeba, Omwana gw`entaama wa Ruhanga!” (Yohaana 1:36).

Ahabw`Ekigambo kya MUKAMA maraika akaba agambira Zekaria ahabikwatireine na Yohaana Omubatiza omuri Luka 1:16-17, “Baingi omu Baisraeli aryabahindura, abagarure ahari MUKAMA Ruhanga waabo. Aryagyendera omu maisho ga Ruhanga omu mwoyo gwa Eliya n`amaani ge, okuhindura emitima y`abazaire, bakagarukana n`abaana baabo, N`abagomi okubagarura aha bwengye bw`abahikiriire, kandi n`okutebeekanisiza MUKAMA abantu abeeteekateekire.”

Ahabw`okuba ekicweka eky`okubanza eky`okuraganisa kwa Eliya (Malaki 4:5-6), kikiija kyahikirira, kandi akeetwa Eliya. Kwonka tihariho murundi na gumwe obu ekihandiiko kya Eliya kyakozesiibwe ahari Yohaana aha kikwatireine na “izooba rya MUKAMA” erya Malaki 4:5-6. Obuhereza bwe nibworekwa omu kyahandikirwe eky`omuri Malaki 3:1 omu buri kirikugambwaho omu ndagaano entsya, ekiri kukwata aha buhereza bwe.

“Yesu Kristo, Niwe Omwe nyumwabazyo, kandi nerizooba, kandi nebiro byona.” (Abaheburaayo 13:8)

Ebaruha erikwetoroora -Okwikumi nebiri 1997

Endamutsyo ezomutaano ahari imw mweena omu nsi yoona omu iziina rya Yesu Kristo nekyahandiikirwe eki ekiri kworeka amatsiko hamwe nokwenda kwabaikiriza boona aba mazima:

“Kandi nitubagambira eki, tukigambiirwe MUKAMA waitu, ngu itwe abahurire abarishangwa bakiriho aha kiro kyokwija kwa MUKAMA, tituribandiza abo abaagwejegyeire. Ahakuba MUKAMA aryeimukira ashuume naaruga omu iguru agambe munonga neiraka rya maraika omukuru nenzamba ya Ruhanga; kandi abaafeeereire omuri Kristo nibo baribanza kuzooka; bwanyima naitwe abahuriire abariba bakiriho turyatwarwa nabo omu bicu kubugana MUKAMA waitu omu kaabunga; tutyo tugume na MUKAMA ebiro byona. Nahabwekyo muhuumurizane nebigambo ebyo.” (1 Abatesalinika 4:15-18).

Okutebereza okwakozirwe emyaka enkumi ibiri enyima tikwakiriira ga haihi nokuhikiriira nkoku kiri hati. Eki ekyafaayo eki ekyamaani nikiija kubaho gye omu muriingi kandi omu buteeka nkoku kyahandiikirwe. Envunuura ahari kyo tizirikweteengwa nakakye. MUKAMA owaazokire owatwiirwe omu iguru omu buntu omu maisho gabeegi (Luka 24:50-51) naija kugaruka omu muriingo nigwo gumwe (Ebyakozirwe 1:11), kandi abo abakwikiriza kutebekanisibwa nibaija kuhindurwa, nkoku Yahamiibwe (Matayo 17:2), kandi bakatunga obutahwaho bwabo (1 Abakorisno 15:49-54) nkoku yaakikozire omu kuzooka. Batyo bwanyima nibiija kuba ngu Ari, “… kwonka nitumanya, ngu ku arishuuruurwa, turyashushana nawe, ahabwokuba turyareeba nkoku ari.” (1 Yohaana 3:1-2). 

Tihariho nyegyesa eri kworekwa nkokushuuruurirwa eribaasa kwiija, kureka We wenyine niwe aryeizira. Kishwera aryatwaara omugore we aha bugyenyi bwokutaasya. Aryaija kutwaarwa omu aha iguru, abugane na MUKAMA omu mwanya kandi agume nawe ebiro nebiro (1 Abatesalonika 4). Ekibuuzo nikiguma kiri yaaba buri omwe omuri itwe ayetebekanise gye (Matayo 25:1-10) kandi ari owa omugore womwana gwentaama kwejumbira omhu bugyenyi bwokushwera (Okushuuruurirwa 19:7-10).

Okuhamisiriza tikuri aha ahari eki kyafaayo ekikuru akyahikire haihi kureka aha ahari ekyo kyonyine, “ahabw`eki nitubagambira omu kigambo kya MUKAMA…” Nahabwekyo enshonga yoona nenyegyesa eyegamiire ebyahandiikirwe ebiri kweera. Omu nimwo obuhamizo buri. Naangwa, ebintu byona ebiri kukwata aha ntebekanisa yokujuna eri kubaho nk`oku yagambirwe omu kigambo kya Ruhanga.

Ahabw`Ekigambo kya MUKAMA Petero akaba akira kugamba omu matebezo ge agokubanza aha kikwatireine nokushukwaho kwOmwoyo Orikwera, “Eki nikyo ekyo ekyagambirwe kurabira omuri nabi Yoeli…” (Ebyakozirwe 2:1b). **AhabwEkigambo kya MUKAMA** kaba agamba omu itebezo rye eryakabiri, ngu ebyo byona ebintu, ebi Ruhanga omu kubanza yaayorekire nakanwa kabaanabi be, biine kuhikiriira (Ebyakozirwe 3:18). Omu kakwaate ako okureeba hare omu maisho, akagamba aha kwteisa kandi okwa … obunaku bwokwegarura butsya omuriija omu maisho ga MUKAMA; kandi Aryayohereza Yesu Kristo, ou omu kubaanza yaababuriirweho… (enyiriri 19-20). Aho bwanyima akagamba Ekigambo eki ekyiine eki kirikumanyisa ahari abo boona abategyerize okugaruka kwa Yesu Kristo, *“ou eiguru rishemereire kwakiira, okuhitsya* ***obunaku bwokugaruramu ebintu byona obusya, obu Ruhanga yaabaire agambira omu kanwa ka baanabi be abarikwera abaabaire bariho okuruga aha kuhangwa kw`ensi.”*** (orunyiriri ra 21).

Ekihandiiko ekyebyahandiikirwe tweena nikituwataho. Nekiragiro kyobwa Ruhanga. Okugaruka kwa Yesu Kristo kutakabiireho ebintu byona bishemereire kugarurwa butsya omu buteeka bwabyo obwabaandize. Ekanisa yomugore eshemereire kugarurwayo aha musiingye gwentumwa hamwe nabaanabi ahu We wenyine ari eibare erikuru eryobuhamizo (Abaefeso 2:20-22) kandi, naangwa, eibaare eryaha mutwe (Zek. 4:7). Gashemereire kuba amazima ngu enyegyesa hamwe namagara gaabo boona abekanisa ya Ruhanga ohuriire nibikiriirizana nekigambo, buri omwe omu magara age agobutoosha, omu bushweere, omu magara gomumaka nanga nomu magara gekanisa yoona. Abantu ba Ruhanga bashemereire kuba omwe omu Kigambo kya Ruhanga. Entumwa Yakobo akagamba aha kwiija kwa MUKAMA. Hona nabwe akahandiika naha njura eyeibiba hamwe neyigyesha eshemereire kwiija okusharuura kutakabiireho (eshuura ya 5). Nabi Yoeli akakiraguraho kandi naangwa n`okugarurwa butsya (Eshuura 2:23-27).

Ekigambo ekyobunabi ekya MUKAMA tikiri kwiija aha muriisa nari aha mubirizi wengiri, nibakibuuriraho. Bwanyima yokukwatanisa kwobwa Ruhanga Ekigambo kya MUKAMA nikiija hari nabi – omuhereza hamwe nentumwa (baefeso 3:5) – naangwa nomu ndagaano enstya nkoku kyaragwiirwe MUKAMA Yesu Kristo, *“Nahabwekyo niinyija kubatumaho baanabi nabanyabwengye nabahandiiki; abamwe aharibo muryabaita, abandi muryababamba…”* (Matayo 23:24). Bwanyima yokuragura oku kwamaani eki abo abatumirwe We nibiija kubonabonesibwa, MUKAMA waitu omu kushaaaha kwamaani akagira, “Yerusaalemu, Yerusaalemu, iota baanabi, okateera abarikukutumwaho amabaare!” (orunyiriri rwa 37). Ruhanga atererize omu kanisa Ye entumwa, baanabi, abashomesa, nabandi nabandi. (1 Abakorinso 12:28; Abaefeso 4:11). Kwonka buri obunabi bwa Bibuli ku burikuhikiriira nabaasa kuba nabi owaraganisiibwe ou Ekigambo kishuuruurirwe. Ruhanga naakora bwanyima ya nabi owatiirweho ensi etakabiireho okwimuka nkoku entebekanisa yokujuna. Ba nabi abamazima bonka biine OKWO NIKWO MUKAMA ARIKUGIRA. Abandi biine envunuura zabo.

Ahabw`Ekigambo kya MUKAMA Yohaana Omubatiza akaba agira, “Ndi eiraka ery`orukugambira omu ihamba…“ (Yohaana 1:23), nahabwekyo Omwoyo Arikwera agambire nakanwa ka nabi Isaaya (40:3). Omuri Matayo 11:9-10 MUKAMA waitu akahamya obuhereza bwanabi owaraganisiibwe. AKATANDIKA nekibuuzo, *“Beitu mukatwarwayo ki? Okureeba nabi? Eego, nimbagambira nti: Buzima naakiriria kimwe nabi…”* **tikiri “kukira mushaija”,** kwonka kukira baanabi abarangiriire ekyafaayo eki ekyamaani.

Boona ba nabi abendagaano enkuru bakaba biine ekintu kimwe ekiri kubagaita: Bakaragura aha kwiija kwa Masiya. Entaaniso eri omu nshonga ngu Yohaana akaba ari nabi **owaraganisiibwe** owatebekaniise omuhanda gwa MUKAMA, akabatiza Masiya kandi yamwanjurira abantu *“… abantu boona baikirize ahabwe.”* (Yohaana 1:7). *“Mumanye ngu ogu niwe nabi Isaaya yaagambireho, obu yaagira ati: Eiraka ryorikugambira omu iahamba ati: Mushemeze omuhanda gwa MUKAMA, mugorore otuhanda twe.”* (Matayo 3:3). Nahabwekyo akaba naakirira kimwe ba nabi b`endagaano enkuru.

MUKAMA Akagaruka Yaajurira obuhereza bwe, “kandi ogwo niwe owaahandiikirweho ngu, Reeba, nintuma entumwa yangye, ekubandize; niyo erishemeza omuhanda gwawe…” (Matayo 11:10; Malaki 3:1).

Luka naagira, “Ebiragiro na Baanabi bikaba biriho okuhitsya omu biro bya Yohaana; okuruga obwo enkuru nungi eyobukama bwa Ruhanga ebuurirwa, kandi omuntu weena abutaahamu namaani.” (16:16)

Ahabw`Ekigambo kya MUKAMA Yohaana akaba agira, “Nyowe nimbabatiza namaizi ahabwokweteisa, kwonka orikwija enyima yangye nankiza obushoboorozi; kandi tinshemereire na kumukwatira enkaito; We aryababatiza nOmwoyo Orikwera nomuriro.” (Matayo 3:11) Arikuugambaho akagira, “Reeba, Omwana gw`entaama wa Ruhanga!” (Yohaana 1:36).

 Ahabw`Ekigambo kya MUKAMA maraika akaba agambira Zekaria ahabikwatireine na Yohaana Omubatiza omuri Luka 1:16-17, “Baingi omu Baisraeli aryabahindura, abagarure ahari MUKAMA Ruhanga waabo. Aryagyendera omu maisho ga Ruhanga omu mwoyo gwa Eliya n`amaani ge, okuhindura emitima yabazaire, bakagarukana nabaana baabo, Nabagomi okubagarura aha bwengye bwabahikiriire, kandi n`okutebeekanisiza MUKAMA abantu abeeteekateekire.”

Ahabwokuba ekicweka ekyokubanza ekyokuraganisa kwa Eliya (Malaki 4:5-6), kikiija kyahikirira, kandi akeetwa Eliya. Kwonka tihariho murundi na gumwe obu ekihandiiko kya Eliya kyakozesiibwe ahari Yohaana aha kikwatireine na “izooba rya MUKAMA” erya Malaki 4:5-6. Obuhereza bwe nibworekwa omu kyahandikirwe ekyomuri Malaki 3:1 omu buri kirikugambwaho omu ndagaano entsya, ekiri kukwata aha buhereza bwe.
