Mbwenu shi Ruhanga Aine Ekibiina?
Ahabw’okugira ngu entumwa n’abeegi bakabuurira n’obweziriki, bakatandikaho ebibiina Ebikristaayo omu bicweka bingi ebya Asia na Europe omu kyasha ky’okubanza. N’obu ebibiina ebi biraabe byabaire bitaataine, bikaba biteetaanise aha bindi. Kureka, bikaba bitebeekanisiibwe gye, kandi bikagasirwa munonga omu buhabuzi bw’entumwa. Nk’eky’okureeberaho, entumwa Paulo akaha Tito obujunaanizibwa bw’okureeberera Kureete “kugira ngu atebeekanise buri kimwe.” (Tito 1:5, The Jerusalem Bible) Kandi Paulo akahandiikira ekibiina kya Korinso ngu ab’eishe-emwe abamwe bakaba baine “amaani g’okutebeekanisa gye,” nari bakaba bari “abatebeekanisa.” (1 Abakorinso 12:28, The New Testament in Modern Speech; The Bible in Contemporary Language) Kwonka n’oha owaabaire naabahwera kugira obuteeka obwo? Paulo akagira ati: ‘Ruhanga akateerana,’ nari “akatebeekanisa,” ekibiina.—1 Abakorinso 12:24; The Riverside New Testament.
Abareeberezi omu kibiina Ekikristaayo bakaba batarikutegyeka ab’eishe-emwe bagyenzi baabo. Kureka, bakaba ‘nibakorera hamwe’ n’abo abaabaire nibakuratira obuhabuzi bw’omwoyo ogurikwera, kandi bakaba baine kuba ‘eky’okureeberaho aharibo.’ (2 Abakorinso 1:24; 1 Petero 5:2, 3) Yesu Kristo, niwe mutwe gw’ekibiina, beitu atari muntu nari guruupu y’abantu abatahikiriire.—Ebaefeso 5:23.
Ekibiina kya Korinso ku kyatandikire kukora ebintu omu muringo ogwabaire nigutaana aha bibiina ebindi, Paulo akahandiika ati: “Mbwenu, nimugira ngu niimwe ekigambo kya Ruhanga kyakomookiremu? Nari niimwe mwenka abu kyaiziire?” (1 Abakorinso 14:36) Paulo akakoresa ebibuuzo ebi kubahwera kuhindura emiteekateekyere yaabo n’okubahwera kwetegyereza ngu bakaba batashemereire kukora ebintu omu muringo ogwabo bonka. Ebibiina bikongyera kutunguuka n’okukanya ku byakuratiire obuhabuzi bw’entumwa.—Ebyakozirwe 16:4, 5.
Ekirikworeka Rukundo ei Ruhanga Atwiniire
Kandi shi obunaku obu? Abamwe nibabaasa kweziringa kwegaita aha diini yoona. Kwonka, Baibuli erimu obuhame oburikworeka ngu Ruhanga atwire naakoresa ekibiina kye kuhikiiriza ekigyendererwa kye. Akatebeekanisa abaheereza be omuri Israeli eya ira, kandi akatebeekanisa n’Abakristaayo aba ira omu kuramya.
Mbwenu shi t’eky’obwengye, kugira ngu Yehova Ruhanga naayebembera abaheereza be hati, nk’oku yaakozire ira? Buzima, Yehova okutebeekanisa abarikumuramya kandi akabahwera kugira obumwe, nikyoreka ngu naabakunda kandi naabafaho. Obunaku obu, Yehova naakoresa ekibiina kye kuhikiiriza ekigyendererwa eki ainiire abantu. Ekibiina kye nikimanyirwa ahari ki? Teekateeka aha nshonga ezi.
Abakristaayo abaabuzima batebeekanisiibwe gye kuhikiiriza omurimo. (Matayo 24:14; 1 Timoseo 2:3, 4) Yesu akaha abakuratsi be ekiragiro ky’okubuurira amakuru marungi g’Obukama omu mahanga goona, omurimo ogwakubaire gutari kubaasika ku hatariho ekibiina ekitebeekanisiibwe gye omu nsi yoona. Nk’eky’okureeberaho, noobaasa kuriisa omuntu omwe ori wenka, kwonka waaba ori ow’okuriisa abantu nyamwingi, oine kuba oine guruupu y’abantu abaraahwere kandi abatebeekanisiibwe gye abarikukorera hamwe. Abakristaayo abaabuzima nibateeraho kuhikiiriza omurimo gwabo barikuheereza “n’omutima gumwe,” nari “barikukwatanisa hamwe.” (Zefania 3:9; Byington) Mbwenu shi kibabaasikire abantu ab’amahanga gatarikushushana, ab’endimi zitari zimwe, n’erangi zitarikushushana kukorera hamwe, ku hatariho ekibiina ekiine obumwe kandi ekitebeekanisiibwe gye? Nitumanya eky’okugarukamu.
Abakristaayo abaabuzima batebeekanisiibwe gye kuhwerahwerana n’okugumyana. Omuntu orikumanya kutemba orushozi ari wenka naabaasa kucwamu ahu arikwenda kutemba, kandi naaba ataine obujunaanizibwa bw’okureeberera abatarikumanya kutemba gye. Kwonka, yaatunga butandu nari oburemeezi, naba ari omu kabi k’amaani, ahakuba nihaba hatariho oraamuhwere. Tikiri ky’obwengye kwetaanisa aha bandi. (Enfumu 18:1) Abakristaayo kubaasa kuhikiiriza ekiragiro kya Yesu, nibaba baine kuhwerahwerana. (Matayo 28:19, 20) Ekibiina Ekikristaayo nikiha boona obuhabuzi oburikwetengyesa kuruga omu Baibuli, okutendekwa, n’obushagiki kugira ngu bagumizemu batahanika. Mbwenu shi abantu bakaabaire nibaza nkahi kubaasa kwegyesibwa ebiragiro bya Yehova kuri noogira ngu tihariho enteerane z’Ekikristaayo ezitebeekanisiibwe gye ezi turikuzamu kwegyesibwa n’okuramya?—Abaheburaayo 10:24, 25.
Abakristaayo abaabuzima batebeekanisiibwe gye kuheereza Ruhanga omu bumwe. Entaama za Yesu ku zirikuhurikiza eiraka rye, niziba “obusyo bumwe” zirikwebemberwa omuriisa omwe. (Yohaana 10:16) Entaama ezi tizirikwetaataanisa omu makanisa gatari gamwe nari omu guruupu zitari zimwe; kandi tizirikwebaganisamu omu nyetegyereza z’amazima. Kureka, boona ‘nibaikirizana.’ (1 Abakorinso 1:10) Kubaasa kuguma twine obumwe, twine kugira obuteeka, kandi ekyo kubaasa kubaho twine kuba tutebeekanisiibwe gye. Ab’eishe-emwe baaba baine obumwe omu nsi yoona nibatunga emigisha ya Ruhanga.—Zaaburi 133:1, 3.
Abantu baingi baabaasize kwija omu kibiina kya Yehova ahabwa rukundo ei bamwiniire hamwe n’amazima agari omu Baibuli kandi ekibiina eki nikihikiiriza enshonga ezi zoona n’emitindo endiijo erikugambwaho omu Baibuli. Ahabw’okugira ngu Abajurizi ba Yehova baine obumwe nibateeraho kukora ebi Ruhanga arikukunda. Nibamanya ngu Yehova naaraganisa ati: ‘Ninyija kubatuuramu, mbagyendagyendemu; ninyija kuba Ruhanga waabo, nabo babe abantu bangye.’ (2 Abakorinso 6:16) Naiwe noobaasa kutunga emigisha nk’egi waaramya Yehova Ruhanga ori n’ekibiina.

Omuri Israeli eya ira buri mwaka bakaba bakuza Okuhingurwaho aha biro 14 eby’okwezi kw’okubanza, okurikwetwa Nisani (nari, Abibu). Kwonka nitureeba entebeekanisa y’omutaano omu Okubara 9:10, 11: “Gambira Abaisraeli oti: Omuntu weena omuriimwe nari omu ruzaaro rwanyu, ku arishiishwa omutumbi, nari ku ariba ari omu rugyendo rwa hare, n’obu kiriba kiri kityo, arinde Okuhingurwaho ahari [Yehova]. Omu kwezi kwa kabiri [okurikwetwa Ziivu], aha kiro kya ikumi na bina omu mwabazyo, babe nibwo baakurinda; omwana gw’entaama gw’Okuhingurwaho baguriise emigaati etatumbisiibwe n’emboga ezirikushaarira.”
Yetegyereze ngu ebigambo ebi bikaba bitarikumanyisa ebiro bibiri bitarikushushana eby’Okuhingurwaho (Nisani 14 nari Ziivu 14), kugira ngu buri Mwisraeli nari eka yoona bakaba baine obugabe bw’okucwamu, kurugiirira aha mbeera. Entebeekanisa y’okukuza Okuhingurwaho omu kwezi kwa kabiri ekaba eine obugarukiro. Omwisraeli owaabaire aba atashemeire aha Nisani 14 nari owaabaire aba ari omu rugyendo rwa hare, niwe yaabaire naabaasa kugasirwa omu ntebeekanisa egi.
Omu byahandiikirwe, entebeekanisa egi neegambwaho omu bwire bw’Omugabe Hezekia bwonka obu yaagaruraho okukuza Obugyenyi bw’Emigaati Etatumbisiibwe. Bakaba bataine bwire bw’okwetebeekanisa omu kwezi kw’okubanza (abanyamurwa n’abantu abandi bakaba baatetebeekaniise), n’ahabw’ekyo omukoro bakagukuza ebiri 14 omu kwezi kwa kabiri.—2 Obusingye 29:17; 30:1-5.
Okuhingurwaho kukaba kwine kukuzibwa aha kiro eki Ruhanga yaataireho, okwihaho ku haabaire habaho mbeera z’omutaano ezaagambwaho. (Okuruga 12:17-20, 41, 42; Abaleevi 23:5) Yesu n’abeegi be bakakuza omukoro ogu barikugyendera aha biragiro ebyatairweho, kandi bakaba nibatwara eizooba eryo nka rikuru munonga. Luka akagira ati: “Kandi ekiro ky’Emigaati etatumbisiibwe kyahika; nikyo kiro ekyabaire kitambirwaho omwana gw’entaama gw’Okuhingurwaho. Yesu yaatuma Petero na Yohaana, naagira ati: Mugyende, mututebeekanisize Okuhingurwaho, turye.”—Luka 22:7,8.
Aha mukoro nigwo gumwe Yesu akatandikaho omukoro ogurikukuzibwa buri mwaka ogu Abakristaayo barikumanya nk’Ekiijutsyo. Ni kikuru munonga Omukristaayo kubaho aha mukoro ogu. Ogu nigwo mukoro ogurikukirayo obukuru aha Bajurizi ba Yehova buri mwaka. Ebigambo bya Yesu nibyoreka obukuru bw’ekiro ekyo; akagira ati: “Mugume mukore mutyo okuunyijukiraho.” (Luka 22:19) N’ahabw’ekyo, buri Mujurizi wa Yehova ashemereire kwetebeekanisa bukiri kare kuhamya ngu aha eizooba eryo tihagira ebindi eby’okukora ebyamuremesa kugubaho.
Obumwe n’obumwe nihabaasa kubaho embeera z’omutaano kitaraariire, nk’endwara nari obundi orugyendo, ezirikubaasa kureetera Omukristaayo kutabaho aha mukoro ogu. Mbwenu shi niki ekirikukorwa omu mbeera nk’ezi?
Aha mukoro ogu, nibarabyamu omugaati gutatumbisiibwe na viinyo, kandi abo bonka abashukirweho omwoyo gurikwera abaine amatsiko g’okuza omu iguru nibo barikurya kandi bakanywa aha bumanyiso. (Matayo 26:26-29; Luka 22:28-30) Omwe aha batwire nibarya aha bumanyiso buri mwaka, omwaka ogu yaaba arwaire ari omu ka nari omu irwariro, abareeberezi ab’omu kibiina kye nibaija kukora entebeekanisa kugira ngu omwe aharibo amutwarire omugaati na viinyo, agaaniire nawe aha byahandiikirwe ebirikukwata aha Kiijutsyo, kandi amugaburire obumanyiso. Oshukirweho omwoyo gurikwera yaaba ari hare n’ekibiina kye, ashemereire kukora entebeekanisa y’okuza omu kibiina ekiri omu kicweka eki araabe arimu aha izooba ry’Ekiijutsyo.
N’ahabw’ekyo, Omukristaayo oshukirweho omwoyo gurikwera naabaasa kukuza omukoro gw’Ekiijutsyo bwanyima y’ebiro 30 omukoro gwaba gwahwire, kurugiirira aha kiragiro ekiri omu Okubara 9:10, 11 n’eky’okureeberaho ekiri omu 2 Obusingye 30:1-3, 15.
“Ab’entaama ezindi” eza Yesu, abaine amatsiko g’okutunga amagara agatahwaho omu nsi, tibarikurya kandi tibarikunywa aha bumanyiso by’Ekiijutsyo. (Yohaana 10:16) Ni kikuru munonga kuba aha mukoro gw’okwijuka okufa kwa Yesu, kwonka tikirikubetengyesa kurya aha bumanyiso bw’Ekiijutsyo. N’ahabw’ekyo omwe aharibo yaaba arwaire nari ari omu rugyendo atari n’ekibiina kyona aha izooba eryo, naabaasa kushoma ebyahandiikirwe ebirikuhikaana n’omukoro (otwariiremu n’ebirikworeka obu Yesu yaatandikaho omukoro) kandi ashabe Yehova kuha omukoro ogwo omu nsi yoona omugisha.
