Paunobvunza chiremba, unoda kuve nechokwadi chekutii anoziva zvaari kutaura nezvazvo. Tinotarisira kuti vanachiremba vanokwanisa kutiudza nzira yekudzivirira zvirinani zvirwere, kugadzirisa marwadzo kana hurwere pazvinenge zvakakodzera, uye kugara takagwinya uye takasimba. Tinoda kuti vave noruzivo rwakawanda mubasa ravo, asi vanofanirawo kunge vawana dzidziso yakafanira. Vangani vedu vaizoona chiremba asina kumboenda kuchikoro chekurapa, asina kumbobvira adzidza mabhuku, uye asina kuramba achiwana ruzivo runofambirana nenguva? Munhu iyeye angave akashongedzerwa zvakadini kuti abudirire kubatsira vanhu?

Zvimwe chetezvo zvinoshanda kwatiri sevaKristu. Tinokwanisa kuva ne “ruzivo” rwese rwatingafungidzira, asi kana tisina kudzidza Bhuku—kana tisingavimbi nebhuku rine chiremera—hatingabudiriri mukurarama hupenyu hwakazara. Unogona kutsigira uzivi hunonzwisisika uye pfungwa dzakanaka pamusoro paMwari zuva rose, asi kana usina midzi muShoko Rake, mashoko ako haana kuvimbika. Hapana nzira yekuzvitaura nayo: hupenyu hwedu hwechiKristu hunofanira kuvakwa panheyo yeShoko raMwari.

MuRugwaro mune mashandisirwo maviri ezita rekuti “Shoko raMwari.” Imwe ndeyeBhaibheri pacharo (shoko raMwari rakanyorwa), uye imwe kuna Jesu Kristu (shoko raMwari pachake). Mumwe nomumwe wavo anonzi Shoko raMwari. Kana tichida kuva noukama hwakarurama naJesu, tinofanira kuva noukama hwakafanira neBhaibheri. Saka ngationei chiremera uye simba reShoko raMwari.

Izwi Raani?

Izwi rokuti chiremera (authority) rinobva paizwi rokuti munyori mutangi wechinhu (author). Chiremera chebasa ripi neripi isimba remunyori. Munyori ndiye anopa simba kune chero chaanoburitsa. Saka zvinokosha kuziva kuti munyori weBhaibheri ndiani.

“Rugwaro rwose rwakafuridzirwa naMwari, runobatsira pakudzidzisa, nokurayira, nokururamisa, nokuranga kuri mukururama, kuti munhu waMwari akwane, agadzirirwa kwazvo mabasa ose akanaka.” ( 2 Timotio 3:16–17 , NW )

Kana muchida kuva akakwana uye akashongedzerwa zvakakwana kuita basa rose rakanaka, tsime razvo zvese Rugwaro. Pauro anotiwo: “Rugwaro rwose rwakafuridzirwa naMwari.” Shoko rechiGiriki rokuti “kufuridzira kwaMwari” rinorondedzerwa se“kufemerwa naMwari.” Shoko rokuti “kufema” uye shoko rokuti “mweya” zvakafanana. Pauro ari kuti, “Rugwaro rwose rwakafemerwa noMweya waMwari.” Simba riri seri kweMagwaro ese isimba reMweya Mutsvene. Ndiye pakupedzisira munyori. Akashandisa zvinhu zvakawanda zvakasiyana-siyana, asi simba roMweya Mutsvene—uyo ari Mwari pachake—raitungamirira chimwe nechimwe. Kana tichitora kubva muMagwaro, tinenge tichitora kubva kusimba raMwari pachake.

Pauro anonyocherechedzawo kuti Rugwaro rwose rwakafemerwa, kwete rumwe. Hatina sarudzo yekuparadzanisa ndima dzatinoona sedzakakosha kubva kune dzatisina. Mweya Mutsvene pachawo wakataura kuti Rugwaro rwose rwakafemerwa naMwari, uye Rugwaro rwose runobatsira. Hapana mabhuku aunogona kusiya kana kuona seasina kukosha. Ngatisangotarisa pane zvishoma zvinonyatsozivikanwa zvikamu zveMagwaro tofunga kuti ndizvo chete zvinokosha.

Kana uchida kuva akashongedzerwa—uye kuramba wakashongedzerwa—unofanira kuvimba neRugwaro rwose. Uchaona kuti unowedzera simba uchienda kune rimwe simba sezvaunofungisisa, kudzidza uye kushandisa Shoko raMwari. Jesu akati tinofanira kunzwa uye kuita Shoko raMwari; kwete kunzwa chete, asi kunzwa nekuita.

Unogona kuti, “Asi varume vakanyora Bhaibheri muzviitiko zvakawanda vaive vasina simba uye vasina chokwadi. Uye Bhaibheri rinotonyora zvivi zvavo zvakawanda.” Unenge wakarurama. Ndinotenda kuti icho chiratidzo chekururama kweBhaibheri-kuti rinonyora zvitadzo zvevanhu vakarinyora. Vanhu vazhinji nhasi vanosiya zvitadzo zvavo voedza kuzviratidza sevasingakanganisi. Vanyori veBhaibheri havadaro. Kunyange Dhavhidhi, uyo akanyora mapisarema akawanda, akanyora zvivi zvake zvakakomba kuti vose vaverenge.

Saka Bhaibheri ringatadza sei kana vanhu vakarinyora vaitadza? Pane mhinduro yakaisvonaka yakapiwa kumubvunzo iwoyo mundima imwe yakapfava:

“Mashoko aJehovha mashoko akachena, Sesirivha yakaidzwa muvira revhu; akanatswa kanomwe. ( Pisarema 12:6 , NW )

Heino mufananidzo wekuti vanhu vangachenesa sei simbi. Vaizovaka choto chevhu, vobatidza moto imomo voisa simbi imomo kuti inatswe. Saka une zvinhu zvitatu pamufananidzo iwoyo: choto chevhu, chiri mudziyo womunhu, ivhu chete; moto, unova Mweya Mutsvene, unonatsa sirivha, iro shoko. Saka izvozvo zvinotiudza kuti varume nevakadzi vanotadza vangava sei nzira dzekuburitsa Shoko raMwari rakafemerwa uye rine simba. Ivhu ndiro mudziyo wemunhu, moto Mweya Mutsvene, uye sirivha—yakacheneswa kanomwe, yakachena chose—ndiro shoko raMwari.

Bhaibheri, nyangwe rakauya nemidziyo yevhu, varume nevakadzi vasina simba, vanotadza, vakanatswa kanomwe nemoto weMweya Mutsvene. Yakavimbika chose.

Jesu neShoko

Tinofanira kufunga nezvemaitiro aJesu pachake kuBhaibheri, nokuti kwatiri isu tiri vadzidzi vake, ndiye muenzaniso. Akabatana sei neBhaibheri? Ngatitarisei mhinduro Yake muhurukuro nevatungamiri vechiJudha.

“Kana Akavaidza vamwari, avo shoko raMwari rakasvika kwavari (uye Rugwaro harungaputswi)....” ( Johane 10:35 NKJ )

Apa Jesu anopa kuBhaibheri mazita ezvinzvimbo maviri akashandiswa nevateveri vake kubvira ipapo: Shoko raMwari uye Rugwaro. Paanoshandisa “shoko raMwari,” zvinoreva kuti rinobva kuna Mwari. Hazvina kubva kumunhu; rakabva kudenga, richibva kuna Mwari. Uye paAnoti “Rugwaro,” zvinoreva izvo zvakanyorwa mukunyora. Mwari akataura zvinhu zvakawanda zvisina kunyorwa, asi izvo zvakanyorwa muBhaibheri zviripo nokuda kwebetsero yedu chaiyo. Ane zvose zvatinoda kuziva kuti tiponeswe.

Mafungiro aJesu anopfupikiswa mumutsara wokuti, “Rugwaro harugoni kuputswa. ”Hapana chinogona kuratidza simba reRugwaro zvizere kupfuura mutsara wakapfava iwoyo.

Ngationei kuti Jesu akashandisa sei Rugwaro. Ndiye muenzaniso wedu. Tichaona zvakaitika Jesu paakanga ari murenje achiedzwa naSatani. Magumo aMateo 3 anonyora rubhabhatidzo rwaJesu muna Jorodhani:

Shoko rokuti “jot,” muchiHebheru chemazuva ano, i yod, vara duku pane ose mumaarufabheti. “Tittle” (keraia) kakona kadiki kakaiswa pabhii kuti risatsaure kubva pabhii rakafanana. Ndizvo zvinhu zviviri zviduku zvikuru mumagwaro akanyorwa echiHebheru, uye Jesu akati hapana chimwe chazvo chichapfuura. Akanga asiri kutaura pamusoro peShoko raMwari rakataurwa panguva iyoyo, nokuti mashoko okuti “joti” uye “chidimbu” anongoshanda kune zvakanyorwa. Saka Jesu akatsigira zvachose simba reShoko raMwari rakanyorwa.

Kumberi zvishoma, pedyo nekupedza hushumiri hwake, Jesu akanga achibata nevaSadhusi vaiva vakasununguka venguva iyoyo, vanhu vakanga vasingagamuchiri simba reMagwaro ose. Kutaura idi, ivo vakagamuchira bedzi chiremera chamabhuku mashanu okutanga, Pentateuch. Vaipikisa dzidziso yokuti vakafa vachamutswa, uye vakauya kuna Jesu nomubvunzo wokuchenjera, asi aya ndiwo mapinduriro avakaita Jesu:

“Asi maererano nokumuka kwevakafa, hamuna kuverenga here zvakataurwa kwamuri naMwari, achiti, ‘Ndini Mwari waAbrahamu, Mwari waIsaka, naMwari waJakobho’? Mwari haazi Mwari wevakafa, asi wevapenyu. ( Mateu 22:31–32 NKJ )

Ona kuti Jesu akashandisa sei Rugwaro irworwo. Mashoko aya akanyorwa naMosesi mazana gumi nemana emakore akanga apfuura. Chaizvoizvo akanga ari mashoko akataurwa naJehovha zvakananga kuna Mosesi. Asi Jesu haana kutaura pamusoro pavo sezvakanga zvataurwa naMozisi makore anegumi namana akapfuura. Iye ndokuti: Hamuna kuverenga here zvakataurwa kwamuri naMwari? Gwaro harina kumbopera nguva. Haisati ichitongori chinyorwa choungwaru hwomunhu. Rwakafemerwa naMwari. Uye kunyange kana rakanyorwa zviuru zvitatu zvemakore zvakapfuura, Mwari achiri kutaura newe nhasi. Ndiro simba reRugwaro sokunzwisiswa kwaro naJesu.

Chiremera cheTestamente Itsva

Simba reTestamente Itsva ndiro rimwe chete riri shure kweTestamente Yekare. Ngatitarisei Jesu nevadzidzi vake. Ari kuvagadzirira chokwadi chokuti achaenda.

“Zvinhu izvi ndazvitaura kwamuri ndiripo. Asi Munyaradzi, Mweya Mutsvene, iwo Baba wavachatuma muzita rangu, iye uchakudzidzisai zvinhu zvose, uye akuyeudzirei zvinhu zvose zvandakareva kwamuri. ( Joh. 14:25–26 NKJ )

Simba riri seri kwezvinyorwa zvevaapositori isimba reMweya Mutsvene. Uye Jesu akati Aizoita zvinhu zviviri: “Zvose zvandisina kukudzidzisai, Iye achakudzidzisai; uye chinhu chipi nechipi chandakataura kuti iwe wakanganwa, iye achakuyeuchidza iwe. Naizvozvo chinyorwa cheevhangeri hachitsamiri pandangariro yomunhu; zvinoenderana nechokwadi cheMweya Mutsvene.

Sezvineiwo, regai ndiratidze kuti Jesu anotyora mitemo yegirama kuti asimbise kuti Mweya Mutsvene hausi “iwo” asi kuti “Iye”. Maererano negirama yechiGiriki, Aifanira kunge akashandisa chivakashure icho, asi haana kudaro; Akati Iye. Zvakakosha kuti unzwisise kuti Mweya Mutsvene hausi iwo zvawo, Ndiye Iye, munhu, uye unofanira kudyidzana Naye semunhu.

Muna Johane 16 Jesu anoburitsa chimwe chimiro chakakosha cheMweya Mutsvene.

“Haazotauri zvake, asi chero zvaanonzwa achataura; uye achakuudzai zvinhu zvichauya. Iye uchandirumbidza, nekuti uchatora pane zvangu, uye uchazvizivisa kwamuri. ( Joh. 16:13–14 NKJ )

Mweya Mutsvene anogara achikudza Jesu. Kana ukambosangana nezviratidzo zvemweya zvisingakudze Jesu asi zvinopa mbiri kumurume kana neimwe nzira, unogona kuve nechokwadi kuti hausi Mweya Mutsvene. Hushumiri hwepamusoro-soro hweMweya Mutsvene ndehwekuratidza uye kukudza Jesu. Bhaibheri rinoti tinofanira kuedza mweya, uye munogona kuedza kana chinhu chinobva kuMweya Mutsvene kana chichikudza Jesu. Kana ikasadaro—inogona kunzwika kuva yakanaka zvikuru kana kuti yemweya, inogona kutaurwa nenzwi guru, rine ruzha—asi haibvi kuMweya Mutsvene, nokuti Haazokudza mumwe munhu kunze kwaJesu. Ndiri kuzviziva ini. Ndinogara ndichizviongorora nokubvunza kuti, “Ndiri kupa mbiri kuna Jesu here, kana kuti ndiri kuedza kunyengetedza vanhu kuti Derek Prince mumwe munhu anokosha?” Derek Prince anongori mutadzi akaponeswa nenyasha dzaMwari.

Mutsamba yangu yeDzidziso inotevera tichaongorora zvakawanda nezvechimiro cheShoko raMwari. Ini ndichakubatsira kuziva simba rayo rinoshamisa uye mabatiro arinogona kuita pahupenyu hwako.

Iwe neni tinogona kufunga kuti mushure meizvi Jesu akaiswa kuti ave nenguva iri nyore. Aive nerutsigiro rwezvose Baba neMweya—pamwe chete nerwomuprofita Johane Mubapatidzi. Asi izvozvo zvaisafanira kudaro.

Mushure mekusangana kunotyisa uku, Jesu akazviwana ari murenje achitsanya kwemazuva makumi mana achiedzwa naSatani. Ndapota usafunge kuti chikomborero chaMwari chichagara chichikuitira nyore hupenyu. Kutaura zvazviri, zvingaita kuti upenyu huve hwakaoma zvikuru, nokuti Satani anoshora zvakasimba vaya vakazodzwa naMwari.

Ruka anoti Jesu akatungamirirwa noMweya kurenje (Ruka 4:1), asi pakupera kwemazuva makumi mana, akabuda nesimba roMweya Mutsvene (ndima. 14). Cherechedza musiyano. Chinhu chimwe chete kutungamirirwa noMweya; ndechimwe chinhu kufamba uye kushanda musimba reMweya. Jesu haana kuita zvekupedzisira kusvika aita kurwisana kwake naSatani akakunda. Mune imwe mwero kana imwe, mumwe nomumwe wedu achada kufamba nenzira imwe cheteyo. Tichatofanira kukunda miedzo nekupikisa kuti tifambe musimba reMweya Mutsvene.

Satani paakauya kuna Jesu muna Mateo 4, chinhu chekutanga chaakaedza Jesu kuita kwaive kukahadzika. Ndiko kunenge kuri kuita kwekutanga kwaSatani. Haazorambi pakarepo Shoko raMwari; achazvibvunza kana kuita kuti ukahadzikane nazvo. Ona chinhu chokutanga chakataurwa naSatani kuna Jesu.

Rangarira kuti Mwari akanga achangobva kutaura ari kudenga achiti, “Uyu ndiye Mwanakomana wangu, wandinoda.” Asi Satani akanga achidenha Jesu kuti asava nechokwadi nezvaakanga anzwa kubva kuna Mwari. “Kana Uri Mwanakomana waMwari, saka ita chimwe chinhu kuti uzviratidze. Ita matombo aya chingwa.”

Izvi zvakakosha. Jesu akabata nemiedzo nokusangana nayo kubva muShoko raMwari rakanyorwa. “Kwakanyorwa kuchinzi.” Usafunga kuti wakachenjera zvokukakavadzana nadhiabhorosi; akachenjera kupfuura iwe. Ave ari mubhizinesi iri kwenguva refu, kwenguva refu. Usaedza kumunyengetedza nenharo dzako. Asi usangane naye neRugwaro. Pese paaiedzwa, Jesu akapindura achiti, “Kwakanyorwa kuchinzi.” Uye pose paaitaura izvozvo, Satani aichinja nyaya yacho. Aiziva kuti akanga asina mhinduro kuMagwaro. Usaedze kuedza kukunda Satani nenjere dzako. Ingomupindura neShoko raMwari rakanyorwa. Magwaro ane simba. Zvigamuchire. Rarama nazvo. Pindura satani nazvo. Haagoni kupindura Shoko raMwari rakanyorwa.

Muna VaEfeso 6:17 Pauro anoti, “Uye torai... bakatwa roMweya, iro shoko raMwari. Kune mazwi maviri echiGiriki anoreva "izwi": rimwe ilogos, rimwe rhema. Logos ndiro rairo yakazara, yekusingaperi yaMwari. Rhema ishoko rinotaurwa naMwari. Iri ndiro shoko rinoshandiswa pana VaEfeso 6:17 : vachitora “munondo woMweya, iro [rhema, rinotaurwa] Shoko raMwari.” Paunosangana naSatani, unofanira kusangana naye nokutaura Shoko raMwari.

Bhaibheri harikuchengetedzi kana rakangogara pasherufu yako yemabhuku, kana kuti riri patafura yepadivi pemubhedha wako. Zvinoshanda chete kana wazvitaura. Iwe unofanirwa kuitora mumuromo mako uye uzvitaure iwe pachako. Ipapo rinova bakatwa rinopinza iro dhiyabhorosi anodududza kubva mariri. Haana mhinduro pazviri.

Ngatitarisei zvakataurwa naJesu pamusoro pesimba reShoko raMwari rakanyorwa, achitaura nezveyatinoti Testamente Yekare:
