Hogaamiyaal badan oo kaniisad ah ayaa noqday tababarayaal nolosha halkii ay ka ahaan lahaayeen aabbayaasha ruuxiga ah. Aabbayaasha ruuxiga ah waxay beddeleen doorkoodii adhijirnimada adhiga oo ay u beddeleen kuwa ku hadla dhiirigelinta. Waxay dhiirigeliyaan dadka, feed the flesh and focus on the well-being of the soul and body (hilib), succes and wealth. This change of role has taken place because many Christians are not born again but carnal. Many preachers are carnal and influenced by the spirit of this world. And many church visitors don’t want someone that interferes with their lives telling them what to do. Halkii, they want someone, who speak positive words and motivates and encourages them mentally and physically. Someone that coach them and provide the right tools to apply in their everyday life to become prosperous, guul, and wealthy.
The spiritual fathers, Kuwii Ilaahay talosaarnaa waxay noqdeen madax jidheed, oo naftooda ku tiirsan
Qaar badan oo ka mid ah hoggaamiyeyaasha kiniisaddu waxay ka tageen ruuxa oo nafta oo waxay noqdeen kuwo jidh ahaaneed. Mar dambe kuma tiirsana Ciise Masiix; Erayga, Aabaha iyo Ruuxa Quduuska ah. Iyagu kuma dhisna Ilaah iyo Eraygiisa, laakiin waxay isku halleeyeen caqligooda iyo kartidooda iyo caqligooda iyo aqoonta adduunyada. Waxay ku tiirsan yihiin kheyraadka dabiiciga ah iyo hababka lagu soo jiito, fadlan, maaweelo, talo, dadkana ilaali (ku qanacsan) kaniisadda dhexdeeda.
Sanadaha oo dhan, falsafada dadka iyo bariga iyo caqiido been ah kaniisaddii bay galeen. Hogaamiyayaasha mar dambe diiradda ma saaraan fayo-qabka ruuxa dadka iyo midhaha ay dhashaan, laakiin waxay diiradda saaraan wanaagga nafta iyo jidhka dadka iyo baahidooda jidheed.
Sidaa darteed, waxay beddeleen oo wacdigoodii ku hagaajiyeen baahida jidhka ee dadka.
The life coaches are no longer inspired by God and His Word and no longer speak from the Word by the Spirit to the people. Laakiin halkii, they preach from their own insights, fikradaha, waayo-aragnimada, and focus on the carnal needs of the people and what they want to hear.
They coach and inspire them through their motivational words. And they use natural means, habab, and technics to please and motivate their flesh.
They speak their own words and provide carnal methods and technics on how to cope with issues of the body and soul, cadaadis, Khilaafaadka, and problems in life and promote a healthy lifestyle.
These life coaches don’t focus on the spiritual new man, teaching the will of God and becoming spiritual strong and empower the Body of Christ. But they focus on carnal strength and empower the body of believers, by promoting healthy nutrition, lifestyle and physical exercise (fitness, yoga, fekerid, digtoonaan, fanka dagaalka (oo ay ku jirto is-difaaca).
The visitors of the church rather listen to life coaches, who feed their flesh and provide carnal wisdom, aqoon, habab, technics and tools, then spiritual fathers, who feed their spirit and spiritually corrects and disciplines them and provide spiritual principles from the Word of God, so that they will get to know the Doodda Eebbe and grow up in holiness into the image of Jesus Christ.
Mental coaches and motivational speakers
I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you. For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel (1 Korintos 4:14-15)
Since many church leaders remain carnal and live like the world, they preach from a carnal mind what carnal Christians want to hear and don’t take it so closely with sin. They try to attract as many people as possible with their appearance and charismatic motivational words.
They preach from their carnal mind and come up with their own encouraging and inspirational life quotes and philosophies that derive from their own intellect and carnal reasoning, instead of speaking and quoting the wisdom of God from His Word (Kitaabka Quduuska ah), which is meant for the spirit.
Many church leaders have changed their role and their message. They are no longer spiritual fathers, who are appointed by God and stand in His service and speak His words.
They are no longer focused upon Jesus Christ and no longer spend with Him and listen to Him and feed, sax oo ka sara kici kuwa rumaystay oo mar kale dhashay, si ay mu'miniintu u koraan oo ay u noqdaan wiilal Ilaah oo bisil.
Iyagu hadda lama dhaqaajin naxariista oo ka walaacsan wanaagga ruuxiga ah ee idaha oo ha sixin oo mar dambe ha edbin.
Iyagu mar dambe ma ay hoggaamiyaan Ruuxa Quduuska ah salaaddooda oo lagu wargeliyo xaaladda ruuxiga ah ee shirka oo ha u dagaalamin iyaga xagga ruuxa..
Laakiin waxay noqdeen tababarayaal nolosha, kuwaas oo ay dadku magacaabeen una taagan yihiin u adeegida dadka oo ku foogan dadka iyo xaaladahooda maskaxeed iyo jidheed iyo baahidooda.
Waxa ay wacdiyaan dareenka iyo shucuurta dadka oo ay ka hagaan maskaxdooda iyo caqligooda guracan iyaga oo adeegsanaya aqoonta iyo xikmadda adduunka..
Waxay bixiyaan aqoonta jidhka, xikmad, and natural methods, micnomayn, and tools so that they can improve their daily lives, structure, caafimaadka, relationships, xirfad shaqo, and achievements, and deal with conflicts and become their better self and live a prosperous, guul, and wealthy life.
They think highly of themselves and talk for hours about their own lives and experiences and so now and then, they quote a scripture from the Bible, that is often taken out of context to back up their motivational words.
Their sermons and doctrines don’t feed the spirit of the new man and don’t ensure that the believers ka saar ninkii hore and grow up into mature sons of Gods, but their sermons feed the old man and keep the flesh of the carnal old man alive. Taas awgeed, many walk in darkness in the bondage of sin and death.
Many leaders are too busy with their own lives and are more focuses upon their own success, projects, ambitions, achievements, goals, and wallets, than on the spiritual well-being and state of the believers and their eternity. Sidaa darteed, badan pastors lead their sheep into the abyss, halkii nolosha weligeed ah.
Parents have become life coaches
Since the spirit of the world has entered and controls many lives, this spirit of deception is not only at work in the church, but also in families. Sidaa darteed, this change of spiritual fathers into life coaches have not only taken place in many churches, but also in many families. Many parents have become life coaches, who are focused upon the success of their child(caruulooyin) in society and don’t raise and nurture the child anymore but they guide the child.
Qoysas badan, both parents work and presume they can have a successful career and raise a child(caruulooyin) isla markaasna. Laakiin runtu waxay tahay, that they spend more time on their work than on their child(caruulooyin) and are more dedicated to their work than to the child(caruulooyin). While they are at work, they entrust their child(caruulooyin) dadka kale.
Many parents don’t raise their child(caruulooyin) naftooda, although many think and say they do.
But if both parents work full time during the week and come home late from work their minds are still occupied with their work and they are often too tired to really listen to their child(caruulooyin), let alone spend quality time with their child(caruulooyin).
They have approximately 3-4 hours together, before the child(caruulooyin) goes to bed, whereof they spend most of their time behind their phone, telefishanka, kumbuyuutar, pad, iwm.
Although the parents are physically present, many times they are not mentally present.
Many parents have often more eye on what is going on, on their phone than what is going on in the lives of their child(caruulooyin). They know more about the lives of the television characters, then about the life of their child(caruulooyin). They know more about the ins-and-outs and secrets of their videogames than they know about their own child(caruulooyin).
So now and then, they have a conversation with their child to motivate and encourage them in the areas of life and how to become successful. They are often more concerned about their achievements than their spiritual well-being. Sometimes they provide scriptures from the Bible that relate to wealth and prosperity to support their motivational words.
Laakiin nasiib darro, many times the parental authority and involvement of the parent in the child’s life and the emotional connection between a parent and a child are missing. The parent often doesn’t see the need of the child and doesn’t hear what is not said. Sidaa darteed, many times the parents don’t give what the child really needs and because of that many caruurtu waxay dareemayaan lumay aduunka.
Some cope with identity problems, feel rejected and are dominated by depressions, eating disorders, cabsi, walaac, xanaaq, iwm. There are even children, who don’t want to live anymore and are longing to die.
Believers don’t grow up into mature sons of God
The same is going on in many churches and therefore many believers cope with all kinds of mental and physical problems. Many churches evangelize and many people are healed and sometimes saved, Laakiin taasi waa. They are not taken care of and spiritually fed and discipled in the Word of God and His will so that they will spiritually mature and walk after the spirit in His will. Many church leaders don’t know their sheep and don’t know what is going on in their lives.
Kaniisado badan, the parental authority is lacking and the church leaders don’t speak the truth of the Word so that the believers put off their old life and gasha ninka cusub and grow up into the image of Christ.
But many have changed and adjusted the words of God, so that they fit into their carnal lives and they can live like the world (Sidoo kale akhri: Ilaah wuxuu beddeli doonaa rabitaankiisa damacyada iyo damacyada dadka?).
Since many church leaders are not spiritually mature, but are still carnal and live like the world, they also use the same wisdom, habab, and technics as the world and apply them to motivate, maaweelo, counsel and advise the people.
But Jesus didn’t say, that the leaders of His body should become motivators, counselors and entertainers, and allow themselves to be exalted by the people and worshiped as gods.
Laakiin Ciisena wuxuu yidhi, that the leaders of His body should be shepherds, who represent Him and feed His flock with His words, so that they will get to know Him and the will of God and glorify Jesus and honor God with their lives (ku. JN 10:1-15; 21:15-17, Xeer 20:28-29, Eph 4:11, 1 PE PE 5:2-4).
Is there ‘a new thing’ or ‘a change’ ima?
Kaniisado badan, the church leaders are no longer in the service of God and don’t preach spiritual truths of the Kingdom of God, iskutallaabta, dhiigga Ciise, toobadkeenid, dib u soo kabashada, sanctification and eternal life. They don’t live as mature sons of God and don’t set the example on how to walk after the Word and the Holy Spirit and rely on God. But they rely on themselves and their own knowledge, xikmad, karti, and skills and walk after the flesh.
They feed, satisfy, and encourage the carnal soul of the people, through their motivational messages and continuously say and promise that ‘a new thing’, ‘a new level‘ or ‘a change’ is about to come, that will cause the feelings and emotions of the carnal people to be temporarily psyched up and the people be motivated and encouraged for a short period of time.
But the Bible doesn’t speak about ‘a new thing’, ‘a new level’ or ‘a change’ that will come. The only new thing and change that the Bible has talked about and has promised, referred to the imaatinka Ciise Masiix on the earth and His perfect shaqada madax furashada and the putting off of the old man and the putting on of the new man.
They counsel the believers and try to solve their problems and conflicts by using the same methods and technics of psychologists (Sidoo kale akhri: Cilmi-nafsiga Masiixiga ma jiraa?).
“Exercise yourself unto godliness, for bodily exercise profits little”
But refuse profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness. For bodily exercise profits little: Laakiin cibaadadu wax kastaba faa'iido bay u leedahay, isagoo ballan u ah nolosha hadda jirta, iyo waxa iman doona (1 Oo ah Tim 4:7-9).
Lately, more and more church leaders not only feed and serve the soul, but also the body of the believers. Many churches are not only changed into entertainment facilities, like lounges to fellowship, makhaayadaha, concert halls with ambiance lighting and loud music, but also into fitness centers, where they provide fitness, yoga, fanka dagaalka iyo is-difaaca (which derives from martial-arts (Sidoo kale akhri: Kaniisadda waa machad bulsheed ama awood Ilaah))
They’ve compromised with the world and have allowed eastern philosophies and Da'da Cusub doctrines to enter the church to feed the soul of the believers, Iyo natiijada, they now have allowed the eastern healing, jimicsiga jirka, mediation, and combat sports to feed the body of the believers.
Taas awgeed, many local churches are deviated from the Word of God and have entered self-chosen ways, where the devil has control and exercises his lordship, and the flesh of the carnal man is fed, madadaalo, motivated and empowered. Natiijo ahaan, the people will bear the fruit of the flesh instead of the miro Ruuxa.
But the Church is not a worldly organization and doesn’t belong to the world, but belongs to the Kingdom of God. The Church is the assembly of born again believers, who walk in holiness after the Word and the Spirit.
The Church should serve and represent the Kingdom of God instead of serve and represent the kingdom of this world.
Sanadaha oo dhan, the Church has slowly become an (maaweelo) business and a social institution that provide the needs of the carnal people.
But this is not how God wants His people to live and this is not how Jesus wants His Body to live and act.
Are Jesus and the Holy Spirit good enough?
Many churches have defiled the Body of Jesus Christ by committing adultery with the world and allow the things of the world in the church and approve them. Indirectly, Waxay dhahaan, that Jesus and the Holy Spirit are not good enough and sufficient enough to them and therefore they look elsewhere. Waxay raadiyaan waxyaabo kale oo ay ku beddelaan waxyaalaha Ilaah waxayna raadiyaan habab kale oo adduunyo iyo rabitaan la mid ah waxyaalaha adduunka.
Dadka Ilaahay daacadda u ah
Waxay la mid tahay reer binu Israa'iil markii Ilaah ka soo samatabbixiyey addoommadii Fircoon oo uu cidlada u horseeday, halkaas oo lagu nadiifiyey, loo qalabeeyey loona diyaariyey inay galaan dhulkii ballanta ahaa. Laakiin dadka badidiis waxay ahaayeen kuwo gadoodsan oo madax adag. Hal daqiiqad, si kal iyo laab ah ayay u yidhaahdeen “haa” Ilaah oo u ballan qaaday inuu ilaalin doono amarradiisa, iyo daqiiqada xigta, Isagay dhabarka u jeediyeen iyo wuu diiday iyagoo sinaysta iyo sanam caabudid, sababtoo ah Ilaah lama kulmin filashadooda oo aan ku filnayn.
Ma ay ilaawi karin noloshii hore ee Masar oo waxay doonayeen inay u adeegaan ilaahyo isku mid ah oo ay la noolaadaan nolol la mid ah tan Masriyiintii..
As soon as Moses, who was appointed by God and represented God and was their spiritual father, went up into the mountain and left them for a while, their true identity was revealed.
The people rather wanted to have a visible image of a dumb idol, then an invisible living God; ah Creator of Heaven and earth.
They’d rather wanted to have fun, party and live a life full of impurities and walk in the ways of the Egyptians and please themselves, then to keep the amarrada Ilaah oo ku soco Jidkiisa oo fadlan isaga.
As soon as their spiritual father Moses left and another leader was appointed, who was not able to stand against the people and didn’t stay loyal to God and stand on the Word, but wanted to please the people, they found someone, who listened to them and was able to fulfill their carnal needs.
They gave him their gold, so that he could make a visible god for them. When the image of the golden calf was created and they got what they wanted they became adulterous by committing idolatry, and they partied and danced before their god; their golden calf.
That’s what happens when spiritual fathers are no longer present and carnal leaders or life coaches take over and the people have indirect control over them. Because as soon as the life coaches don’t give them what they want or say something that offends them and they don’t want to hear, way iska socdaan. And that’s something that the church doesn’t want, because the church doesn’t want to offend people but the church wants to attract people and grow. Sidaa darteed, they adjust their message and the service to the wishes and desires of the people and give them what they want to hear and do.
Is the fear of God present in the Church?
Haysashada ballamahan, gacaliye, aynu iska safayno nijaas kasta oo jidhka iyo ruuxa ku jirta, quduusnimada kaamil ku ah cabsida Ilaah (2 Co 7:1)
Waxaan ku noolnahay qarni, in which the generation, who had somewhat a fear for the Lord and His Word and walked in His way, surrender the baton to a new generation of whom the majority don’t have a fear of God, but are rebellious and world-like and walk after the flesh and go their own way and therefore walk on their own carnal path of life.
They copy the world and Christianize the things of the world. Since they are carnal and led by their senses, shucuur, iyo dareenka, they are focused upon appearances, they look like rock stars and bodybuilders, who are good looking from the outside, and are social and speak smoothly.
By their charismatic appearance, good looks and flattering words, they know exactly how to attract and win the carnal people, kuwaas oo caqli-gal ah, for themselves by pulling their feelings and emotions.
They want to be noticed and exalted and worshiped by the people and they are focused upon success, fame and wealth. They are led by their carnal mind, worldly trends and figures and by using worldly knowledge, wisdom and methods they try to achieve their ambitions and goals and attract as many people as possible so that the church becomes a successful business that they are responsible for.
Sexual uncleanness in the churches
Si kastaba ha ahaatee, since they sow in the flesh, they also reap the fruit of the flesh. Sidaa darteed, we see much sexual uncleanness in the lives of many leaders, who are appointed in the churches.
They commit fornication, sino, abuse children sexually, waxay si wada jir ah u wada nool, have sexual relationships, same-sex relationships, yihiin furjariin and remarried in a short period of time, daawo lulataaye, visit prostitutes and so on.
And when they are caught, they just ask forgiveness out of a formality and they are quickly restored in their position in the ministry. Laakiin marar badan, after a while the same sin takes place again. That’s because the unclean spirit is still present in the life of the person.
Sababta oo ah xaqiiqda awgeed, that many church leaders ignore sin and allow sin and live in sin, the church members also habitually live in sin. Waa maxay sababta? Because they follow and adopt the example and the behavior of their leader.
They consider their leader as someone, who is appointed by God and therefore if their leader lives that way, God approves it and they may also live that way.
But as long as someone doesn’t hate sin, but embraces sin and approves sin, it proves that the person doesn’t have the nature of God and is not born again, but still has the nature of the fallen man, Waa kuwee nooca Ibliisku.
Taas awgeed, the morals of God are being adjusted to the morals of the world and fallen man, and the lamps of many churches have been removed by Jesus and they are seated in darkness (Sidoo kale akhri: Kaniisaddu waxay fadhiisatay mugdi).
The return of spiritual fathers
Sidaad og tihiin sidaan midkiin kastaaba idiinku waaninnay oo u qalbi qaboojinnay oo u waaninnay, sida aabbe carruurtiisa u sameeyo, Inaad u socotaan si Ilaah istaahila, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory (1 Th 2:11-12)
It’s about time that the spiritual fathers, who are born again in Christ and have the Spirit of God and walk as sons of God in obedience to the Word and His will, return and take their place in the Church. Madaxda, who don’t have the carnal mind of the world and are focused upon themselves and establishing their kingdom, but are focused upon Jesus Christ and establishing the Kingdom of God.
Every born again believer in Christ is a representative of Jesus Christ and the Kingdom of God on this earth. But the church leaders, who are appointed as shepherds of the flock have a greater responsibility. Because the church leaders are responsible for the souls of the believers (ku. Sababtoo ah 23:1, Laa " 13:17)
They should feed and correct the born again believers, so that they grow up and spiritually mature in the image of Jesus Christ and walk in God’s way, that leads to eternal life.
The church leaders are appointed by God and stand in His service instead of the people, oo ha u adeegin naftooda, Ee u caabuda dadka xaggiisa (ku. Mar 10:45, Lu 22:24-30, JN 13:12-15).
Hogaamiyeyaasha kaniisaddu waxay awoodaan oo keliya inay u adeegaan Ilaah oo ay matalaan oo u adeegaan dadka, marka ay haystaan ka saar ninkii hore iyo gasha ninka cusub oo u socda sida abuurka cusub idinkoo addeeca Ilaaha amarka iyo xoogga Ruuxa Quduuska ah.
Madaxda kaniisaddu waa inay maqlaan waxa Ciise; Erayguna wuxuu leeyahay oo ku hadla hadalkiisa oo toosiya kuwa rumaystay, marka loo baahdo oo ruux ahaan kor u qaad. Halkii ay aqoontooda dhegaysan lahaayeen oo ay iyagu isku hallayn lahaayeen (nicmaanaan) xirfadaha, caqli, iyo aragtiyo iyo hadal iyo fal iyaga ka.
Waa in ay hoggaamiyaan Ruuxa Quduuska ah, maxaa yeelay, Ruuxa Quduuska ah wuxuu ku hadlaa runta Ilaah oo wuxuu muujiyaa waxa ka dhaca nolosha dadka. Wax kasta oo ku dhaca mugdiga, Iftiinkana wuu soo gelin doonaa.
Hogaamiyayaasha kaniisaddu waa ilaaliyayaasha nafta rumaystayaasha waxayna mas'uul ka yihiin korriinka ruuxiga ah ee rumaystayaasha mar kale dhashay iyo xaaladda guud ee kaniisadda..
Sidaa darteed, Hogaamiyayaasha kaniisaddu ha qaataan mawqifkooda sida aabbayaasha ruuxiga ah iyo mas'uuliyadda ka saaran korinta iyo kor u qaadista rumaystayaasha si ay u noqdaan wiilal Ilaah oo bisil., oo ku socda doonistiisa oo wacdiya, keeno oo ka dhisto boqortooyadiisa dhulka.
‘ Dhulka milix ahow’
