Iwo amadabwa akaona kuti ana ena sakhulupirira zoti zamoyo zinachita kusintha kuchokera ku zinthu zina.” Mtsikana wina wa Mboni wa ku France anati: “Aphunzitsi a kusukulu kwathu amadabwa akamva kuti pali ana ena amene amakhulupirirabe Baibulo.”

² Masiku ano anthu ambiri sakhulupirira kuti kuli Mulungu. Ngati ndinu wachinyamata wa Mboni kapena mukuphunzira Baibulo, mwina mumadzifunsa kuti, ‘Kodi ndingamutsimikizire bwanji munthu kuti kuli Mlengi?’ Akhristufe timalimbikitsidwa kuti tiziganizira kwambiri zimene tamva kapena kuwerenga, kuti tidziwe ngati zili zoona kapena ayi.

Muzigwiritsa ntchito luso lanu lakuganiza n’cholinga choti muzindikire “tanthauzo” la zimene mukuwerengazo. (Mat. 13:23) M’nkhaniyi tiona kuti kuchita zimenezi kungakuthandizeni kutsimikizira kuti Yehova ndi amene analenga zinthu zonse komanso kuti Baibulo ndi Mawu ake.

⁴ Mwina anthu ena anakuuzanipo kuti: “Ndimakhulupirira kuti zamoyo zinachita kusintha kuchokera ku zinthu zina chifukwa choti asayansi amanena choncho. N’chifukwa chiyani inu mumakhulupirira kuti kuli Mulungu ngati munamuonapo?” N’zoona kuti palibe munthu amene anaonapo Mulungu kapena kuona zinthu zikulengedwa. (Yoh. 1:18) Koma anthu amene amakhulupirira kuti zamoyo zinachita kusintha kuchokera ku zinthu zina, nawonso amakhulupirira zinthu zoti sanazionepo. Palibe wasayansi kapena munthu aliyense amene anaona chamoyo chikusintha n’kukhala chinthu china. Mwachitsanzo, palibe anaonapo buluzi akusintha n’kukhala mkango. (Yobu 38:1, 4) Choncho kaya munthu amakhulupirira zotani, ayenera kufufuza mokwanira komanso kugwiritsa ntchito luso lakuganiza kuti apeze umboni wa zimene amakhulupirirazo. Ponena za chilengedwe, mtumwi Paulo anati: “Chilengedwere dziko kupita m’tsogolo, makhalidwe a Mulungu osaoneka ndi maso akuonekera bwino. Makhalidwe a Mulungu amenewa, ngakhalenso mphamvu zake zosatha ndiponso Umulungu wake, zikuonekera m’zinthu zimene anapanga moti anthuwo alibenso chifukwa chomveka chosakhulupirira kuti kuli Mulungu.”—Aroma 1:20.

Mwachitsanzo, tingathe kuona Mlengi wathu ndi maso achikhulupiriro tikaona zimene asayansi atulukira masiku ano. (Aheb. 11:27) Gulu la Yehova limatipatsa zinthu zambiri zotithandiza pa nkhani imeneyi. Zinthu zake ndi monga mavidiyo, mabuku komanso timabuku. (Mwachitsanzo pali vidiyo yakuti, The Wonders of Creation Reveal God’s Glory, buku lakuti, Is There a Creator Who Cares About You? komanso timabuku takuti, Was Life Created? ndi The Origin of Life—Five Questions Worth Asking.) Mfundo zinanso zothandiza zimapezeka m’magazini athu. Mwachitsanzo, mu Galamukani! nthawi zambiri mumakhala nkhani zofunsa asayansi komanso anthu ena omwe amafotokoza zimene zinawathandiza kuti ayambe kukhulupirira zoti kuli Mulungu. Mumakhalanso nkhani zakuti, “Kodi Zinangochitika Zokha?” ndipo zimafotokoza zinthu zachilengedwe zochititsa chidwi kwambiri. Masiku ano asayansi akamapanga zinthu zawo amayesetsa kutengera zam’chilengedwezi.

6. (a) Kodi zinthu zofufuzira zomwe tili nazo zingatithandize bwanji? (b) Kodi zinthu zimenezi zakuthandizani bwanji inuyo?

⁶ M’bale wina wazaka 19 wa ku United States anafotokoza zokhudza timabuku timene tatchula m’ndime 5. Anati: “Timabukuti ndinatiwerenga kambirimbiri ndipo tandithandiza kwabasi.” Mlongo winanso wa ku France analemba kuti: “Nkhani zakuti, ‘Kodi Zinangochitika Zokha?’ zimandisangalatsa kwambiri. Zimasonyeza kuti akatswiri akamapanga zinthu amayesetsa kutsanzira zimene zili m’chilengedwechi komabe safikapo.” Makolo ena a ku South Africa omwe ali ndi mwana wazaka 15 anati: “Mwana wathu akalandira Galamukani! amayamba n’kuwerenga nkhani zofunsa akatswiri amene anayamba kukhulupirira kuti kuli Mulungu.” Nanga inuyo mumakonda nkhani ziti? Kodi mumagwiritsa ntchito zinthu zonse zimene tili nazo kuti chikhulupiriro chanu chikhale ngati mtengo wa mizu yozika kwambiri pansi? Chikhulupiriro choterocho chingakuthandizeni kuti musamatengeke ndi ziphunzitso zabodza, zomwe tingaziyerekezere ndi mphepo.—Yer. 17:5-8.

Munthu akadziwa zolondola, m’pamene amakhala ndi chikhulupiriro cholimba. (Werengani Aroma 12:1, 2; 1 Timoteyo 2:4.) Kuti zimenezi zitheke, ndi bwino kusankha nkhani zinazake n’kufufuza zimene Baibulo limanena pa nkhanizo.

8, 9. (a) Kodi anthu ena amakonda kufufuza nkhani ziti m’Baibulo? (b) Kodi anthu ena apindula bwanji chifukwa choganizira kwambiri zimene aphunzira?

⁸ Anthu ena amasankha kuti afufuze maulosi a m’Baibulo kapena umboni woti ndi lolondola pa nkhani za sayansi kapena mbiri yakale. Ulosi wina wochititsa chidwi ndi wopezeka pa Genesis 3:15. Vesi limeneli limafotokoza mwachidule nkhani yaikulu m’Baibulo. Nkhani yake ndi yokhudza ulamuliro wa Yehova komanso mmene Ufumu udzayeretsere dzina lake.

Iye anati: “Zimenezi n’zodabwitsa chifukwa Baibulo linalembedwa ndi anthu osiyanasiyana okwana 40. Ndipotu ambiri mwa anthu amenewa anakhalako nthawi zosiyana ndipo sankadziwana n’komwe.” Mlongo wina wa ku Australia anachita chidwi atawerenga nkhani ya Pasika mu Nsanja ya Olonda ya December 15, 2013. Mwambo umenewu ukugwirizana kwambiri ndi ulosi wa pa Genesis 3:15 komanso kubwera kwa Mesiya. Mlongoyu anati: “Kuphunzira za dipo kwandithandiza kudziwa kuti Yehova ndi wodabwitsa. N’zochititsa chidwi kuti iye anakonza zoti Aisiraeli azichita mwambowu ndipo zonse n’kudzakwaniritsidwa ndi Yesu. Nditafatsa n’kuiganizira nkhaniyi ndinaona kuti Yehova amakwaniritsa maulosi m’njira yodabwitsa.” N’chifukwa chiyani mlongoyu anamva chonchi? Iye anaganizira kwambiri zimene anawerenga n’kuzindikira “tanthauzo lake.” Izi zinamuthandiza kuti alimbitse chikhulupiriro chake komanso azikonda kwambiri Yehova.—Mat. 13:23.

10. Kodi kuona mtima kwa olemba Baibulo kumatithandiza bwanji kukhulupirira zimene analemba?

Iwo ankalemba zolakwa zimene anthu awo kapena mafumu awo ankachita. (2 Mbiri 16:9, 10; 24:18-22) Ankafotokozanso zimene iwowo komanso atumiki ena a Mulungu analakwitsa. (2 Sam. 12:1-14; Maliko 14:50) M’bale wina wa ku Britain anati: “Kuona mtima kotereku n’kosowa kwambiri ndipo kumatithandiza kutsimikizira kuti Baibulo ndi Mawu a Mulungu.”

11. Kodi timadziwa bwanji kuti mfundo za m’Baibulo ndi zothandiza?

¹¹ Ambiri amakhulupirira kuti Baibulo ndi Mawu a Mulungu akaona mmene mfundo zake zimathandizira anthu. (Werengani Salimo 19:7-11.) Mlongo wina wa ku Japan analemba kuti: “Pamene aliyense m’banja lathu ankatsatira mfundo za m’Baibulo tinkasangalala. Tinkakondana kwambiri, tinkagwirizana komanso tinkakhala mwamtendere.” Mfundozi zimatitetezanso kuti tipewe miyambo ya zipembedzo zonyenga komanso kukhulupirira zamizimu. (Sal. 115:3-8) Tinganene kuti anthu amene amakhulupirira zoti kulibe Mlengi amaona zinthu zam’chilengedwe ngati milungu yawo. Iwo amaganiza kuti tsogolo lawo lonse lili m’manja mwawo. Koma vuto ndi lakuti sapereka chiyembekezo chilichonse kwa anthu.—Sal. 146:3, 4.

Amakhulupirira kuti Mulungu anangochititsa kuti zinthu zina zisinthe n’kukhala zamoyo zosiyanasiyana. Ndiye pali ena amene amakhulupirira kuti mfundo yakuti zamoyo zinachokera ku zinthu zina ikanakhala yabodza, si bwenzi ikuphunzitsidwa kusukulu. Pomwe ena anasiya kukhulupirira kuti kuli Mulungu chifukwa choti anakhumudwa ndi zimene zipembedzo zimachita. Choncho musanayambe kukambirana ndi munthu zokhudza mmene moyo unayambira, ndi bwino kumufunsa kaye mafunso kuti mudziwe zimene amakhulupirira.

Iye anati: “Nyumba iliyonse inamangidwa ndi winawake, koma amene anapanga zinthu zonse ndi Mulungu.” (Aheb. 3:4) Chitsanzo chimenechi ndi chothandiza kwambiri. Tikaona chinthu chopangidwa mwaluso timadziwa kuti payenera kukhala winawake amene anachipanga. Mungathenso kugwiritsa ntchito buku kapena kabuku pokambirana ndi munthuyo. Mwachitsanzo, mlongo wina anagwiritsa ntchito timabuku tomwe tatchula poyamba tija pokambirana ndi mnyamata amene ankakhulupirira kuti zamoyo zinachita kusintha ndipo ankati kulibe Mulungu.
