Da Paolo Tessione - Chikunguru 18, 2020

Zvinogona kuve zvakasarudzika pane zvese zvakanaka zvechiKristu, kunze kwekunge pamwe kuzvininipisa, kugutsikana. Chokwadi handisi kufara. Mune hunhu hwangu hwakadonha handifadzwe nemasikirwo. Ini handisi kufara nekuti ini ndinogara ndichitamba mupfungwa dzangu izvo Paul Tripp anodana hupenyu "dai chete": dai ndaingova nemari yakawanda muaccount yangu yekubhengi, ndingafare, dai ndaingova nekereke inotevera hutungamiriri hwangu, kana chete vana vangu vanga vazvibata zviri nani, dai ndaingova nebasa randaida… Nedzinza raAdamu, "dai chete" aive asina magumo. Mukunamata kwedu-kwekunamata zvidhori, tinowanzofunga kuti shanduko yemamiriro ezvinhu ichaunza mufaro uye kuzadzikiswa. Kwatiri, huswa hunogara hwakasvibirira kunze kwekunge tadzidza kuwana kugutsikana kwedu mune chimwe chinhu transcendent uye nekusingaperi.

Sezviri pachena, muapostora Pauro akarwawo nehondo yomukati inoshungurudza. Muna VaFiripi 4, anoudza kereke ipapo kuti "akange adzidza chakavanzika" chekufara mumamiriro ese ezvinhu. Chakavanzika? Inowanikwa muPhil. 4: 13, vhesi yatinowanzo shandisa kuti tiite maKhristu kutaridzika saPopeye naKristu senge sipinachi, vanhu vanogona kunyatsoita chero chinhu icho pfungwa dzavo dzingaone (pfungwa yeNew Age) nekuda kwaKristu: "Ini ndinogona zvese kubudikidza naye (Kristu) anondisimbisa ”.

Muchokwadi, mazwi aPaul, kana akanyatsonzwisiswa, akapamhama pane kududzirwa kweanoda kubudirira kweiyo vhesi: kuvonga kuna Kristu, tinogona kuwana kuzadzikiswa zvisinei nemamiriro ezvinhu ayo rimwe zuva anounza muhupenyu hwedu. Nei kugutsikana kuchikosha uye nei kuchinetsa? Zvakakosha kuti tinzwisise kutanga, kuti kusagutsikana kwedu kukuru kwakadii.

Sevanyanzvi vekurapa kwemweya, maPuritan akanyora zvakanyanya uye akafunga zvakadzama nezvenyaya iyi yakakosha. Pakati pemabasa akanakisa ePuritan pane kugutsikana (akati wandei maPuritan anoshanda pane ino chinyorwa akanyorwa zvakare neBinner yeChokwadi) ndiJeremia Burroughs 'Iyo Rare Jewel yeChristian Kugutsikana, Thomas Watson's The Art of Divine Contentment, Thomas's Crook in the Lot. Boston mharidzo yakanaka kwazvo yeBoston yakanzi "Chivi cheGehena chekutadza". E-bhuku rakanakisa uye risingadhuri e-bhuku rakanzi The Art uye Nyasha Zvekugutsikana rinowanikwa paAmazon iro rinounganidza akawanda maPuritan mabhuku (kusanganisira matatu achangobva kunyorwa), achiparidzira (kusanganisira mharidzo yaBoston) uye zvinyorwa zvekugutsikana.

Boston kutsanangurwa kwechivi chekusagutsikana muchiedza chemutemo wechigumi chinoratidza kusazvipira kwekuti kuna Mwari kunowedzera kushomeka kwekugutsikana. Boston (1676-1732), mufundisi uye mwanakomana weScotland Co Conventioners, anochengeta kuti mutemo wechigumi unorambidza kusagutsikana: avarice. Nekuti? Nekuti:

Kugutsikana ndiko kusavimbika kwaMwari.

Kugutsikana kwakafanana nekunyunyuta pamusoro pehurongwa hwaMwari.Pamoyo yangu yekuda kuzvimiririra, ndinofunga zano rangu rakandinakira. Sezvo Paul Tripp anoisa zvakanaka, "Ndinozvida ini uye ndine chirongwa chakanakisa cheupenyu hwangu."
Kugutsikana kunoratidza shungu dzekuda kuzvimirira. Ona kwete. 2. SaAdamu naEvha, tinoshuvira kuravira iwo muti uyo unozotishandura kuva madzimiriri.

Kugutsikana kunokarira chimwe chinhu icho Mwari chisina kufadzwa kutipa. Akatipa mwanakomana wake; saka, hatingavimbe naye pazvinhu zvidiki here? (VaR. 8:32)

Discontent subtly (kana kuti zvimwe kwete zvakanyanyisa) kutaura kuti Mwari vakanganisa. Mamiriro angu azvino haana kunaka uye anofanira kuve akasiyana. Ndichafara chete kana vachinja kuti vagutse zvido zvangu.

Kugutsikana kuramba hungwaru hwaMwari uye kukwidziridza huchenjeri hwangu. Handizvo here zvakaitwa naEvha mubindu nekubvunza kunaka kweShoko ra Mwari? Naizvozvo, kusagutsikana ndiko kwaive pakati pezvivi zvekutanga. "Chokwadi Mwari Vakadaro?" Uyu ndiwo mubvunzo uri pakati pekusagutsikana kwedu kwese.
Muchikamu chechipiri, ini ndichaongorora iro rakanaka re dzidziso iyi uye kuti Pauro akadzidza sei kugutsikana, uye nemabatiro atingaitawo isu. Zvekare, ini ndinokumbira uchapupu hwemadzitateguru edu ePuritan kuti tinzwisise zvimwe zvebhaibheri zvine musoro.
