Kenshi na kenshi, abantu barabaza cyangwa bakibaza “ni ayahe mahame shingiro ya Bibiliya yo gutanga abakristu?” Mugihe dushakisha igisubizo cy’Imana kuri kiriya kibazo kandi mugihe dutekereza gutanga ubwacu itorero rya Nyagasani kugirango dusubize inyigisho zisobanutse z’Ijambo ryayo, birashoboka ko byaba byiza kandi bifashe gusuzuma ayo mahame hano.
Ubwa mbere, reka tujye ku Ijambo ry’Imana ubwaryo, nta bisobanuro:
Matayo 6: 1-4 Witondere gukiranuka kwawe imbere yabantu kubabona; bitabaye ibyo, nta gihembo ufite na So uri mwijuru. Noneho, iyo uhaye abakene, ntukavugishe impanda imbere yawe, nkuko indyarya zibikora mu masinagogi no mu mihanda, kugirango zubahwe n’abagabo. Mubyukuri ndakubwiye, bafite ibihembo byabo byuzuye. Ariko iyo uhaye abakene, ntumenyeshe ukuboko kwawe kwi bumoso icyo ukuboko kwawe kwiburyo gukora, kugirango itangwa ryawe ribe rwihishwa; na so ubona ibyakozwe rwihishwa azaguhemba.
1 Abakorinto 16: 1-2 Noneho kubyerekeye icyegeranyo cyabatagatifu, nkuko nayoboye amatorero ya Galatiya, nawe urabikora. Ku munsi wambere wa buri cyumweru buri umwe muri mwe agomba gushyira kuruhande no kuzigama, kuko ashobora gutera imbere, kugirango hatabaho ibyegeranyo iyo nje.
2 Abakorinto 8: 9-15 Kuberako uzi ubuntu bwUmwami wacu Yesu Kristo, ko nubwo yari umukire, nyamara kubwawe yabaye umukene, kugirango wowe mubukene bwe ube umukire. Ndatanga igitekerezo cyanjye muriki kibazo, kuko ibi nibyiza byawe, babaye aba mbere batangiye umwaka ushize batabikoze gusa, ahubwo bifuza no kubikora. Ariko ubu urangize kubikora nanone, kugirango nkuko byari byiteguye kubyifuza, hashobora no kubaho kubirangiza kubushobozi bwawe. Kuberako niba ubushake buhari, biremewe ukurikije ibyo umuntu afite, bidakurikije ibyo adafite. Kuberako ibi atari ukworohereza abandi no kubabara kwawe, ahubwo ni muburyo bwuburinganire – muriki gihe ubwinshi bwawe bukaba isoko kubyo bakeneye, kugirango ubwinshi bwabo nabwo bushobore kuba isoko kubyo ukeneye, kugirango habeho uburinganire; nk’uko byanditswe, “WE WAkusanyije BYINSHI NTABWO YARI AFITE BYINSHI, KANDI WE WAkusanyije BIKE NTA KUBURA.”
2 Abakorinto 9: 6-7 Noneho ibi ndabivuze, uwabibye gake nawe azasarura gake, kandi uwabibye byinshi nawe azasarura byinshi. Umuntu wese agomba gukora nkuko yabigambiriye mumutima we, atabishaka cyangwa agahato, kuko Imana ikunda uyitanga yishimye.
Amahame 10 yo gutanga abakristu
Mu isubiramo ryibi bice bine byo mu Isezerano Rishya, dusangamo byibuze amahame icumi yo gutanga abakristu.
1. Uwiteka Yesu yiteze kandi adusaba gutanga. Yesu abwira abigishwa be ati: “iyo utanze” ntabwo “niba utanze” (Matayo 6: 2)! Kubwibyo, gutanga abakristu ntabwo ari ubushake, ahubwo ni ngombwa. Dukunze kumva abantu bavuga bati: “mu Isezerano rya Kera bagombaga gutanga, ariko ntabwo bari mu Gishya – ubu turatanga gusa niba tubishaka.” Biragaragara ko iyi atari inyigisho za Yesu. Yari yiteze ko abayoboke be bose bazatanga. Abakristo bazatanga. Urimo gutanga?
2. Umwami Yesu arashaka ko dutanga kubwimpamvu zikwiye. Yesu yihanangirije abigishwa be kudatanga kugirango bashimwe n’abantu. “Ati: “Witondere gukiranuka kwawe imbere y’abagabo kugira ngo bababone. Iyo dutanze, tugomba kwitonda kugirango dusuzume intego zacu. Tugomba gutanga icyubahiro cy’Imana n’ibyiza by’ubwoko bwayo. Tugomba kwifuza ko yemera ibyo dutanga, aho gushimwa no gushimwa nabantu. Urimo gutanga ibisingizo by’Imana cyangwa abantu?
3. Umwami Yesu arashaka ko dukora imyitozo myiza cyangwa yubuntu. Yesu ati “Iyo uhaye abakene . . ..” (Matayo 6: 2-3). Yesu yigisha byumwihariko “imfashanyo” muriki gice: imfashanyo, urukundo, cyangwa amaturo meza kubatishoboye. Uhaye Itorero bihagije kuburyo ashobora gutanga ubuntu mugutanga neza?
4. Uwiteka Yesu aratwibutsa ko itangwa ryacu amaherezo ari Data wo mwijuru ubona byose. Yesu ati: “Iyo utanze. . .; So ubonye ibyakozwe rwihishwa azaguhemba” (Matayo 6: 3-4). Iyo dutanze, ntabwo twongera gusa ku ngengo y’Itorero, tureka ituro ryo gushimira Data ubwe. Rero, twese tugomba guha “nk’Umwami.” Intego yacu nyamukuru mugutanga ni ukumushimisha. Uzi neza ko itangwa ryawe ari Uwiteka kandi ukabonwa na Nyagasani?
5. Bibiliya yigisha ko gutanga kwa gikristo ari igikorwa cyo gusenga. Kubijyanye n’ingingo yabanjirije iyi, tubona uku kuri gushimangiwe mu bundi buryo mu ijambo rya Pawulo “Ku munsi wa mbere wa buri cyumweru buri wese muri mwe agomba gushyira ku ruhande agakiza” (1 Abakorinto 16: 2). Pawulo hano yigisha Abakorinto ko gufata icyo cyegeranyo ari igikorwa cyo gusenga kigomba kuba kimwe mu bigize umunsi wabo wo gusenga Umwami. Iyo dushyize amafaranga yacu mu isahani, dusenga Imana Ishoborabyose dukurikije Ijambo ryayo. Menya neza, Pawulo avuga hano “icyegeranyo cyabatagatifu” – ibi ni Itorero ryahaye Itorero Itorero Itorero. Wari uzi ko gutanga ari igice cyo gusenga? Kuramya kwawe muri kariya gace ni byinshi cyangwa birabujijwe? Guha Itorero umwanya wambere nawe?
6. Bibiliya yigisha ko gutanga kwa gikristo bigomba gukorwa ukurikije kwigira umuntu. Abakirisitu benshi bajya impaka niba icya cumi (10% byinjiza) kikiri igipimo cyo guha Itorero (abatongana bakunze kwerekana ko munsi ya 10% ari byiza). Pawulo acecekesha impaka zose kumurongo umwe. Agira ati: “Kuberako uzi ubuntu bw’Umwami wacu Yesu Kristo, ko nubwo yari umukire, nyamara kubwawe yabaye umukene, kugirango wowe mubukene bwe ube umukire” (2 Abakorinto 8: 9). Kwitanga kwa Kristo ubu ni amahame yo gutanga! Dutangirira ku gice cya cumi kandi tugamije kwigana ibitambo bye. Gutanga kwacu nuguhumeka no kwigishwa nimpano idasobanutse ya Kristo. Urebye ikibazo nk’iki, ninde ushobora kunyurwa no kubaza “ni kangahe ijanisha ryemerwa gutanga?” Uragerageza kunyura mu guha Uwiteka bike bishoboka, cyangwa uratanga urebye igitambo cya Nyagasani gihenze?
7. Bibiliya yigisha ko gutanga abakristu bigomba gukorwa dukurikije uburyo bwacu. Pawulo arasobanutse neza kuri ibi: “Kuberako niba ubushake buhari, biremewe ukurikije ibyo umuntu afite, bidakurikije ibyo adafite” (2 Abakorinto 8:12). Shyira mu bundi buryo Pawulo avuga ko ugomba gutanga ukurikije ibyo Imana yaguhaye. Yabivuze muri ubu buryo mu 1 Abakorinto 16: 2, “buri wese muri mwe agomba gushyira ku ruhande agakiza, kuko ashobora gutera imbere.” Ibi bivuze byibuze ibintu bibiri: (1) kubera ko twese dukwiye gutanga ugereranije, abafite amafaranga menshi bategerejweho gutanga byinshi [twe twahawe imigisha cyane mubintu tugomba kubyibuka], kandi (2) Uwiteka ntiyigera adusaba gutanga ibyo tudafite cyangwa gutanga umusanzu urenze ubushobozi bwacu. Uratanga rwose ukurikije imigisha yibintu Uwiteka yaguhaye?
8. Bibiliya yigisha ko ubwisanzure bw’imigisha y’Imana kuri twe bufitanye isano n’ubuntu bw’itangwa rya gikristo ryacu. Nubwo bisa nkaho bidasanzwe, Yesu na Pawulo bombi bashimangira ko hari isano hagati yo guha Uwiteka no kuduha Uwiteka. Nkuko Pawulo abivuga mu 2 Abakorinto 9: 6 “Noneho ibi ndabivuze, uwabibye gake nawe azasarura gake, kandi uwabibye byinshi nawe azasarura byinshi.” Kuri iki kibazo JA. Beet yigeze kuvuga ati: “Mu gutanga ibitekerezo, ntabwo ari bike bashobora gutanga, nk’uko babikora niba kwikungahaza ari byo byari bigamije, ahubwo ni inyungu zitangwa, bazasubizwa ku ihame rimwe. Nkuko bakorera abandi, Imana rero izabakorera.” Yesu aratwibutsa ibi muri Matayo 6: 4, aho yigisha ko ibihembo byacu mugutanga biva kuri Data wo mwijuru. Nkuko umuntu yigeze kubivuga: “Icyifuzo cyo gutanga no gutanga uburyo bwo gutanga byombi biva ku Mana.” Uratahura ko Uwiteka yaguhaye byinshi, kugirango utange byinshi?
9. Bibiliya yigisha ko gutanga kwa gikristo bigomba kuba byiteguye gutanga, gutanga kubuntu. Ibi twabyize mu 2 Abakorinto 9: 7 “Buri wese agomba gukora nkuko yabigambiriye mu mutima we, atabishaka cyangwa ku gahato.” Ariko ibyo ntibivuguruza ibyo twize dushingiye ku ihame rya mbere, ko gutanga abakristu bidahinduka? Igisubizo, birumvikana ko oya. Gutanga abakristu kwukuri ni itegeko kandi kubushake. Bisabwa n’Imana, ariko burigihe bitangwa kubushake n’umwizera. Ese guha Itorero ikintu ukora n’umutima wawe wose, cyangwa utitaye, cyangwa ubishaka?
10. Bibiliya yigisha ko gutanga kwa gikristo bigomba kuba bishimishije gutanga. Nkuko Pawulo abivuga, “Imana ikunda gutanga umunezero.” Ibi ni amagambo atangaje rwose. Pawulo atwizeza hano ko Uwiteka yishimira bidasanzwe abishimye, bafite imbaraga, bishimye. Hari umunezero mumutima wawe nkuko utanga? Urashobora rwose kurangwa nk “utanga umunezero”?
