Obwetaavu n'Obusoboka bw'Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu

Obwetaavu n'obusoboka bw'Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu byolekebwa mu ssuula eno, ekozesa Kristo n'abayigirizwa be ng'ekyokulabirako, okulaga nti n'abakkiriza abasinga okwetegeka bateekwa okufuna ekirabo kino ekiwa amaanyi nga tebannaba kutandika mulimu gwa Katonda. Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu kutendeka buli mukkiriza okuweereza n'obwesigwa, okuwa obujulirwa n'obuvumu, n'okutuukiriza ebigendererwa bya Katonda, nga kusigala nga kufunibwa Abakristaayo bonna mu buli mulembe.

Nga wasigaddewo akaseera katono nga Kristo tannatwalibwa waggulu mu ggulu, ng'amaze okukwasa abayigirizwa be omulimu ogw'okubuulira enjiri, yabateekako ekiragiro kino eky'amaanyi ku ntandikwa y'omulimu omukulu gwe yakwasa mu mikono gyabwe: "Laba, mpeereza gye muli ekyo Kitange kye yasuubiza; naye musigale mu kibuga okutuusa lwe mulyambazibwa amaanyi agava waggulu." (Lukka 24:49) Tewali kubuusabuusa ku ekyo Yesu kye yategeeza n'"ekisuubizo kya Kitange" kye baali balindirira nga tebannatandika buweereza bwe yabakwasa; mu Bikolwa 1:4-5, tusoma nti Yesu "yabakuutira baleme okuva mu Yerusaalemi, wabula balindirire ekisuubizo kya Kitaawe" nga, "Kubanga Yokaana yabatiza n'amazzi, naye mu nnaku ntono mulibatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu." "Ekisuubizo kya Kitaawe," okuyita mu ekyo okwambazibwa amaanyi kwe kwandivuddemu, kwe Kubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu. (Bikolwa 1:8). Awo Kristo n'akuutira nnyo abayigirizwa be baleme okulowooza okutandika omulimu gwe yabayita gwo okutuusa lwe balifuna, ng'okutegeka okwetaagisa era okw'omugaso ennyo olw'omulimu ogwo, Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu.

Abasajja Yesu be yagamba kino baali balabika nga baamaze okutegekebwa bulungi ddala olw'omulimu ogwaali mu maaso. Baamala ku ssomero lya Kristo yennyini okusukka emyaka esatu. Baawulira ku mimwa gye amazima amakulu ge baali ba kulangirira eri ensi. Baali bajulirwa b'ebyamagero bye, n'okufa kwe, n'okuzuukira kwe, era baali baakuba bajulirwa b'okulinnya kwe mu ggulu. Omulimu ogwaali mu maaso gaabwe gwali gwa kufuluma bugenzi okulangirira ekyo amaaso gaabwe kye gaali galabye n'ekyo amatu gaabwe kye gaali gawulidde ku mimwa gya Kristo yennyini. Tebaali bategese bulungi olw'omulimu guno? Kandirabise bwe kityo eri ffe. Naye Kristo yagamba nti, "Nedda. Muli batategefu ddala nga temuteekwa kutambula wadde ekigere kimu.

Waliwo okutegekebwa okulala, okw'omugaso ennyo olw'obuweereza obw'omugaso, kwe muteekwa okusigalira mu Yerusaalemi okutuusa lwe mulikufuna. Okutegekebwa kuno okulala kwe Kubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu. Bwe mulikufuna, so si nga tekunnaba, olwo muliba mutegese okutandika omulimu gwe mbayitidde." Singa Kristo teyakkiriza abasajja bano abaali bafunye okuyigirizibwa okw'ekitalo olw'omulimu gwe yabayitira mu ngeri ey'olwatu era eyeeyolese okutandika omulimu guno awatali kufuna, ng'oggyeeko ekyo, Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu, kaakano kiba kya lugero ki ffe okutandika omulimu gwe yatuyita gwo nga tetunnafuna, ng'oggyeeko okuyigirizibwa kwonna kwe tuyinza okuba twafuna olw'omulimu, Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu? Si kwegulumiza okw'amaanyi ennyo?

Naye kino si kye kyokka. Mu Bikolwa 10:38, tusoma nti "Katonda nga bwe yafuka amafuta ku Yesu ow'e Nazaaleesi n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu n'amaanyi, era nga bwe yatambula ng'akola obulungi era ng'awonya bonna abaali banyigirizibwa Setaani." Bwe tutunuulira mu njiri okunnyonnyola ebigambo bino, tubisanga mu Lukka 3:21-22, Lukka 4:1-14, 15, 18, ne 21. Tulaba nti ku Kubatizibwa kwa Yesu ku Yoludaani, bwe yali asaba, Omwoyo Omutukuvu ne amukkako. Awo, "Ng'ajjudde Omwoyo Omutukuvu," n'ayita mu kyokutegeera eky'okukemebwa. Awo, "Mu maanyi g'Omwoyo," n'atandika obuweereza bwe, ne yeeyatula nti "yafukibwako amafuta okubuulira" kubanga "Omwoyo wa Mukama ali ku ye." Mu ngeri endala, Yesu Kristo teyatandika buweereza bwe yajjira mu nsi eno okutuusa lwe yabatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu.

Singa Yesu Kristo, eyafunibwa mu ngeri ey'ekitalo olw'amaanyi g'Omwoyo Omutukuvu, Omwana wa Katonda omu yekka eyazaalibwa, eyali Katonda, Katonda ddala eyava eri Katonda ddala, kyokka nga muntu ddala, singa Kristo, "ng'atulekera ekyokulabirako tulyoke tugoberere ebigere bye," teyatandika buweereza Kitaawe bwe yamutumira okutuusa lwe yabatizibwa bwe kityo n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu, kiba kya lugero ki ffe okugezaako okukikola?

Bwe tugezaako okukikola, mu kutangaala kw'ebyafaayo bino ebiwandiike, kirabika ng'ekyonoono ekisukka okwegulumiza. Awatali kubuusabuusa, kikoleddwa mu butamanya abangi, naye tukyayinza okwewolereza obutamanya nate? Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu kwe kutegekebwa okwetaagisa olw'obuweereza obwa Kristo mu buli kika ky'obuweereza.

Tuyinza okuba n'okuyitibwa okw'olwatu okw'obuweereza, okwa lwatu nnga bwe kiyinzika, nga Abatume bwe baali nakwo, naye ekiragiro kituteekebwako, nga bwe kyabateekebwako abo, nti nga tetunnatandika buweereza obwo, tuteekwa "okusigala mu kibuga okutuusa lwe tulyambazibwa amaanyi agava waggulu." Okwambazibwa amaanyi kuno kuyita mu Kubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu. Mazima ddala tewali nsobi nnene ze tukola leero okusinga eyo ey'okuteeka abasajja okusomesa amasomero g'e Ssabbiiti, n'okukola omulimu ogw'omuntu ku muntu, ne wadde okubuulira enjiri, olw'obugenzi nti bakyusibbwa era nga bafunye ekiwerako ky'okusomesebwa, oboolyawo n'okuyitamu mu ssettendekero, naye nga era tebannabatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu.

Omuntu yenna ali mu mulimu ogw'Ekikristaayo, atannafuna Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu, asaanidde okulekera omulimu gwe awo w'ali, aleme kugweeyongerayo okutuusa lwe aliba "ayambaziddwa amaanyi agava waggulu." Naye omulimu gwaffe gulikola ki nga tukyalindirira?

Ensi yakola ki mu nnaku ezo ekkumi nga abayigirizwa ab'olubereberye baali balindirira?

Bo bokka be baamanya amazima agalokola, kyokka, olw'okugondera ekiragiro kya Mukama, baasirika. Amaanyi bwe gaajja, baakola mu lunaku lumu okusinga bye bandikoze mu myaka mingi, singa baali bagenze mu bujeemu obw'okwegulumiza eri ekiragiro kya Kristo; bwe tutyo naffe, bwe tulimala okufuna Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu, tulikola mu lunaku lumu okusinga bye tuli tukole mu myaka mingi awatali maanyi ge. Ennaku ez'okumala mu kulindirira, singa kyandyetaagisizza, zaali za kukozesebwa bulungi, naye tujja kulaba mu maaso nti tetwetaaga kumala nnaku nga tulindirira. Kiyinza okugambibwa nti Abatume baagendanga mu ngendo z'obumishoni mu bulamu bwa Kristo nga tebannaba kubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu.

Kino kya mazima, naye ekyo kyali nga Omwoyo Omutukuvu tannaweebwa, era nga ekiragiro, "musigale mu kibuga okutuusa lwe mulyambazibwa amaanyi agava waggulu," tekinnaweebwa.

Oluvannyuma lw'ekyo, kyandibadde bujeemu n'okwegulumiza okugenda awatali kwambazibwa kuno, era ffe tuli balamu leero nga Omwoyo Omutukuvu amaze okuweebwa era ng'ekiragiro eky'"okulindirira okutuusa lwe tulyambazibwa" kimaze okuweebwa. Kaakano tutuuka ku kibuuzo ky'Obusoboka bw'Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu. Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu kwaffe?

Kino kibuuzo ekirina eky'okuddamu eky'olwatu era eky'obutereevu ennyo mu Kigambo kya Katonda. Mu Bikolwa 2:39, tusoma nti: "Kubanga ekisuubizo kyammwe n'abaana bammwe, n'abo bonna abali ewala, nga bangi Mukama Katonda waffe be alikoowoola." "Ekisuubizo" eky'ekifo kino kye ki? Bwe tuddayo mu nnyiriri ey'okuna n'ey'okutaano ez'essuula eyakulembera, tusoma nti: "wabula mulindirire ekirabo Kitange kye yasuubiza." "Kubanga Yokaana yabatiza n'amazzi, naye mu nnaku ntono mulibatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu."

Nate, mu lunyiriri olw'amakumi asatu mu ssatu olw'essuula ey'okubiri, tusoma nti: "Bwe yamala okufuna okuva eri Kitaawe ekisuubizo ky'Omwoyo Omutukuvu." Kandirabise nga kya lwatu nti "ekisuubizo" eky'olunyiriri olw'amakumi asatu mu mwenda kiteekwa okuba nga kye kimu n'"ekisuubizo" eky'olunyiriri olw'amakumi asatu mu ssatu, ne "ekisuubizo" eky'ennyiriri ey'okuna n'ey'okutaano ez'essuula eyakulembera; kwe kugamba, ekisuubizo eky'Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu. Ekyokusalawo kino kikaka mu ebyo ebikyetoolodde: "Mwenenye, mubatizibwe buli omu ku mmwe mu linnya lya Yesu Kristo olw'okusonyiyibwa ebibi byammwe. Nammwe mulifuna ekirabo ky'Omwoyo Omutukuvu," n'ebirala.

Kale ekisuubizo eky'olunyiriri luno kye kisuubizo eky'ekirabo oba Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu.

(Bikolwa 10:45 ne Bikolwa 11:15-16.) Ekirabo kino kya ani? "Kyammwe," bw'ayogera Peetero eri Abayudaaya be yali ayogera nabo. Awo n'atunuulira waggulu w'emitwe gyabwe eri omulembe oguddirira, "N'abaana bammwe." Awo n'atunuulira wansi mu mirembe gyonna egijja egy'ebyafaayo by'Ekkanisa eri Abamawanga awamu n'Abayudaaya, "N'abo bonna abali ewala, nga bangi Mukama Katonda waffe be alikoowoola gy'ali." Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu kwa buli mwana wa Katonda mu buli mulembe ogw'ebyafaayo by'Ekkanisa. Bwe tekuli kwaffe mu kufuna okw'okwolekera, kiba kubanga tetutwadde (amaanyi g'ekigambo "okufuna" mu lunyiriri 38 kwe kutwala) ekyo Katonda kye yatuteekerateekera mu Mulokozi waffe eyagulumizibwa.

(Bikolwa 2:33; Yokaana 7:38-39.) Omuweereza w'Enjiri lumu yajja gye ndi oluvannyuma lw'okwogera ku Kubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu n'agamba nti, "Ekkanisa gye ndimu eyigiriza nti Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu kwali kwa mulembe gw'Abatume gwokka." "Tekiriiko kye kizuula," kwe kwaddibwamu, "Ekkanisa gy'oli oba Ekkanisa gye ndi bye biyigiriza. Ekigambo kya Katonda kigamba ki?"

Bikolwa 2:39 lwasomebwa: "Kubanga ekisuubizo kyammwe n'abaana bammwe, n'abo bonna abali ewala, nga bangi Mukama Katonda waffe be alikoowoola." Ne mbuuza. "Yee, mazima yamukoowoola." "Ekisuubizo kikyo?" "Yee, kikyange." Era kyali kikye. Era kya buli mwana wa Katonda asoma empapula zino. Ndowoozo nga eya ssanyu meka nti Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu, okwambazibwa amaanyi agava waggulu, kwange nze kennyini. Naye ekirowoozo ekyo eky'essanyu eritayogerekeka kirina oluuyi lwakyo olw'okusaddaaka. Bwe nyinza okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu, kinsaanira okubatizibwa.

Bwe mbatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu, olwo emyoyo girirokolebwa okuyita mu nze egitandirokolebbwa singa sibatiziddwa? Kale nno bwe nteeganya okusasula omuwendo ogw'Okubatizibwa kuno, ne siba mubatize bwe ntyo, mvunaanibwa mu maaso ga Katonda ku myoyo gyonna egyandirokoseddwa naye egitalokolebbwa okuyita mu nze kubanga saabatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu.

Emirundi mingi nkankanira baganda bange ab'omu mulimu ogw'Ekikristaayo n'okwekankanira nze kennyini. Si kubanga tuyigiriza abantu obukyamu obutta; abamu bazza n'omusango ogwo, naye sikyogerako kaakano. Si kubanga tetuyigiriza mazima gonna nga bwe gali mu Yesu. Kiteekwa okukkirizibwa nti bangi abatayigiriza bukyamu bwennyini so nga tebabuulira njiri njijjuvu, naye sikyogerako. Nkankanira abo ababuulira amazima, amazima nga bwe gali mu Yesu, Enjiri mu bwangu bwayo, mu bulongoofu bwayo, mu bujjuvu bwayo, naye nga bagibuulira "mu bigambo eby'amagezi ebisendasenda" so si "mu kulaga kw'Omwoyo n'amaanyi" (1 Abakkolinso 2:4), nga bagibuulira mu maanyi g'omubiri so si mu maanyi g'Omwoyo Omutukuvu.

Tewali kintu kya kabi okusinga enjiri awatali maanyi g'Omwoyo. "Kubanga ennukuta etta, naye Omwoyo awa obulamu."

Mulimu gwa buzito bwa maanyi okubuulira enjiri oba okuva ku katebe k'okubuulirirako oba mu ngeri ez'ekimpowooze. Kitegeeza kufa oba bulamu eri abo abawulira, era oba kitegeeza kufa oba bulamu kiyinza nnyo okusinziira ku oba tugibuulira nga tetulina oba nga tulina Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu.

Tuteekwa okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu. Kiwakanibwa oluusi nti "Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu" kwateekebwawo lwa okuwa amaanyi ag'okukola eby'amagero gokka era nti kwakwatanga ku mulembe gw'Abatume gwokka. Okuwagira ekifo kino, kiwakanirwa nti Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu kwagobererwanga mu ngeri ey'enkalakkalira eby'amagero. Obuteesigika bw'ekifo kino kirabika: (1) Olw'ekyo nti Kristo yennyini yalangirira nti ekigendererwa ky'Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu kwali kuwa maanyi ga kuwa bujulirwa, so si maanyi ga kukola byamagero. (Bikolwa 1:5-8; Lukka 24:48-49.)

(2) Olw'ekyo nti Pawulo yayigiriza mu lwatu nti waaliwo ebirabo ebya njawulonjawulo, era nti "okukola eby'amagero" kwali kumu ku byeyoleka bingi eby'Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu. (1 Abakkolinso 12:4, 8-10.)

(3) Olw'ekyo nti Peetero yalangirira mu lwatu nti "ekirabo ky'Omwoyo Omutukuvu," "ekisuubizo," kya bakkiriza bonna mu mirembe gyonna (Bikolwa 2:38-39), era kirabika okuva mu kugeraageranya Bikolwa 2:39 ne Lukka 24:49; Bikolwa 1:4-5; Bikolwa 2:33, ne Bikolwa 2:38 ne Bikolwa 10:45 ne Bikolwa 11:15-16, nti buli kimu ku bigambo bino ebibiri, "ekisuubizo," ne "ekirabo ky'Omwoyo Omutukuvu," kitegeeza Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu.

Bwe tutwala eby'amagero mu ngeri engazi okutegeeza ebivaamu byonna ebikolebwa amaanyi ag'ekitalo, olwo kya mazima nti buli eyabatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu afuna amaanyi ag'okukola eby'amagero; kubanga buli eyabatizibwa afuna amaanyi agataali gaggwe mu buzaale, wabula amaanyi ag'ekitalo, amaanyi ga Katonda yennyini. Ekyava mu Kubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu ekyalabika ennyo era eky'omugaso ennyo kwali maanyi ga kukakasa.

(Bikolwa 2:4, 37, 41. Bikolwa 4:8, 13. Bikolwa 4:31, 33. Bikolwa 9:17, 20-22.) Kirabika nga tewaali kulaga kwa maanyi ga kukola byamagero amangwago oluvannyuma lw'Okubatizibwa kwa Pawulo n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu, newankubadde yafuna ekirabo eky'enjawulo mu ludda luno oluvannyuma. Amaanyi ag'okuwa obujulirwa ku Yesu ng'Omwana wa Katonda ge yafuna nga gakwatagana amangwago n'Okubatizibwa n'Omwoyo Omutukuvu.
