Walking in love according to the Bible does not always correspond with man’s view. Je! Unatembea kwa upendo, wakati wewe ni wema kwa watu na uvumilie na kupitisha vitu vyote, pamoja na dhambi na maovu? Wakristo wengi hufikiria kwamba wakati unatembea kwa upendo, Haupaswi kuwa mkali na kuhukumu, but respectful and accept everyone, including their (dhambi) mtindo wa maisha. Kwa sababu ya mawazo haya ya umri mpya, Makanisa mengi hayawakili tena Yesu Kristo. Hawahubiri na kuwakilisha ufalme wa Mungu na mapenzi ya Mungu. Badala yake, Wamekuwa biashara ya burudani ya kijamii ambayo inategemea kanuni za kidunia na mafundisho ya mwili wa mwanadamu. Katika makanisa mengi, dhambi na uovu umeongezeka na kuna nguvu kidogo au hakuna zaidi ya Mungu hata kidogo. Wacha tuangalie kile Yesu anasema juu ya kutembea kwa upendo. Kwa sababu, when do you walk in love according to the Bible?
Je! Bibilia inasema nini juu ya kutembea kwa upendo?
Kulingana na Biblia, walking in love means keeping the commandments of Jesus Christ. Unapotembea kwa upendo, you will keep His commandments and do what the Word tells you to do.
Kama Baba alivyonipenda, Kwa hivyo nimekupenda: Endeleeni katika upendo Wangu. Mkizishika amri zangu, Utadumu katika upendo wangu; Hata kama nilivyoshika amri za baba yangu, Kaa katika upendo wake (Yohana 15:9-10)
Kama ilivyoandikwa katika nakala zilizopita, Upendo kwa jirani yako huanza na upendo wako kwa Yesu Kristo; neno.
Umeketi ndani yake, katika Neno. Kwa hivyo unapaswa kujua neno. The only way to get to know Him is by the Word (Biblia) Kwa sababu Yesu ndiye Neno.
Wakati Yesu ndiye upendo wako wa kwanza, and your love for Him is greater than the love for your ‘self’ na dunia, na yote yaliyomo ndani, only then shall you be able to love your neighbour as yourself.
Wakati unapenda nje ya mwili (Kati ya hisia na hisia zako), Halafu upendo wako ni wa 'kifo hufanya kazi'. Lakini wakati unapenda nje ya roho, Kwanza utampenda Mungu kwa moyo wako wote, akili, nafsi, na nguvu.
Hautatembea kulingana na uelewa wako, matokeo, maoni, na hisia. Lakini utatembea kulingana na kile Biblia inasema na kumpenda jirani yako kama wewe mwenyewe. Utawasamehe wengine na kuwa na huruma kwa watu.
Yesu alitembea kwa upendo
Jesus walked in love by doing the will of God and keeping His commandments. He wasn’t a wishy-washy, Ambaye aliidhinisha na kukubali vitu vyote vya mwanadamu. Jesus didn’t always speak gentle words, Lakini Yesu alizungumza maneno magumu, and confronted the people.
Jesus did not compromise and didn’t accept behaviour that opposed the will of His Father. Na Yesu hakika hakukubali dhambi, but He reproved man of their sins.
Yesu alijua, that sin is rebellion against God and disobedience to the word of God. Sin doesn’t lead people into freedom and eternal life but bondage of the devil and eternal death.
Take for example alcohol. Despite the warnings in the Bible, many people drink alcohol and think they are free. Hata hivyo, their way of freedom led to bondage of the devil. Their drinking habit turned into an ulevi wa pombe that will destroy their lives.
Jesus brought salvation to the people that lived in the bondage of sin. Yesu alikuja kuwaweka huru. He brought the Kingdom of God and taught the people the Word of God. Watu wengi walisikiliza maneno yake na kumwamini na kutubu dhambi zao.
Waliacha yao maisha kama mwenye dhambi na kuwa mtiifu kwake. Walitii maneno yake na kumfuata.
Je! Unatembeaje kwa upendo?
As the Father sent Jesus and Jesus yielded to the Father and walked in love by keeping the Amri za baba yake, so you are sent by Jesus and you should yield to Jesus and walk in love by keeping His commandments (2 Yohana 1:6).
Watakatifu wanahitaji kushauri kila mmoja kwa upendo. So that every Christian keeps walking in love on the narrow path that leads to eternal life.
Unapoona kaka au dada anayeishi katika dhambi, Kuanguka tena katika dhambi kila wakati na wakati, kuwa kutotii Biblia, au kufuata mafundisho mengine ambayo hayakubaliani na Neno la Mungu, then it’s your duty to admonish and correct your brother or sister.
Ikiwa unampenda kaka na dada yako, Utamshauri na/au kumrekebisha. Ili mtu aweze kutubu na kuokolewa. (Soma pia: ‘Ambaye Bwana anampenda yeye huadhibu na kumkasirisha ')
Ikiwa haujali jirani yako, Unaweka mdomo wako. Utakubali kila kitu mtu huyu anafanya na umruhusu aendelee kutembea kwa uasi na kumtii Mungu; katika dhambi na uovu, on his or her way to hell.
Lakini ikiwa unajali jirani yako na una huruma ya Yesu Kristo, Kisha utafungua kinywa chako, Kuhubiri ukweli wa Neno la Mungu, na kumkemea dhambi. Kwa kufanya hivyo, utatoa uhai kwa mtu huyo na kumzuia mtu huyo kwenda kuzimu.
Therefore walk in Jesus’ love; Mpende Yesu na uweke amri zake zote.
“Kuwa chumvi ya dunia”
