“Ekibala eky’Omwoyo kye kisa” (Abaggalatiya 5:22).

Obukambwe bw’obutonde busaanuuse, era kaakano obutonde bumasamasa n’akamwenyumwenyu k’ekiseera eky’okumera, era buli kintu ekitwetoolodde kitunyumiza mu kaama ku buwombeefu bwa Katonda. Ekibala kino ekirungi kituukagana bulungi nnyo n’omwezi guno omuwombeefu, gwe kirimu ng’eddoboozi erikulu. Omwoyo Omutukuvu atukulembere, abaagalwa, mu nnaku zino, atuyingize mu buwoomi bwe, mu bukkakkamu bwe ne mu buwombeefu bwe, ng’ajeemulula buli mpisa enkalu, ey’obutassaamu balala kitiibwa, enkambwe era etali ntukuvu, n’atufuula ng’Oyo agambibwa nti, “Taliyomba so talireekaana, era tewaliba n’omu aliwulira eddoboozi lye mu nguudo.”

Omusajja ajjuziddwa Yesu mu mazima anaabeeranga bulijjo omusajja ow’empisa ennungi. Omukazi abatiziddwa mu Mwoyo Omutukuvu anaabeeranga n’empisa ez’obuzaaliranwa ez’omukyala ow’ekitiibwa atuukiridde, ne bw’aba nga yazaalibwa mu bwavu era nga teyayigirizibwa nnyo mu masomero g’empisa ez’ensi. Abaagalwa, tufune era tulage obuwombeefu bwa Kristo, omwoyo gw’omwana omuwere omutukuvu, okutuusa ensi lw’eritwogerako, nga Chesterfield, omusajja ow’empisa ennungi naye atakkiriza, bwe yayogera lumu ku Fenelon omutukuvu nti, “Singa nnasigala mu nnyumba ye olunaku olulala, nandibadde nfuuka Omukristaayo.”

Mukama, tuyambe leero twewaayo eri Omwoyo Ejjiba omuwombeefu, obulamu bwaffe bulyoke bubeere ng’obulamu bwe.

“Atuwanguzisa bulijjo” (2 Abakkolinso 2:14).

Ebigambo bino nga bituyamba! Bilowoozeeko abantu bwe bakunyiiza, Setaani bw’akufumita obusaale bwe obw’omuliro, omwoyo gwo ogw’obuyinike era ogw’obwannannyini bwe gunyiiga oba ne gweraliikirira; eddoboozi eppomu liwulirwe waggulu w’olutalo, nga lyogera mu kaama nti, “Sigala muwoomu, sigala muwoomu!” Era bw’onooligondera mangu, onoowonyezebwa okugwa emirundi lukumi, n’okuumibwa mu mirembe egituukiridde.

Kituufu, toyinza kwekuuma nga oli muwoomu, naye Katonda anaakukuuma bw’anaalaba nga kye kigendererwa kyo ekinywevu era ekimalirivu okukuumibwa nga oli muwoomu, n’okugaana okweraliikirira oba okukwata ensaalwa oba okwesasuza. Ekizibu kiri nti osangamu essanyu mu kunyiiga okutono ne mu kwennyamira. Oyagala okukuuma akasaalwa ako akatono, n’okusaasira enneewulira zo ezirumiziddwa, n’okulabirira ekyekubiira kyo ekitono.

Mikwano gyange, Katonda anaabawa okwagala kwonna kwe mwagala ddala era kwe mulonda n’obwesimbu. Oyinza okubeera n’ekyekubiira kyo, oba oyinza okubeera n’emirembe egisukkiridde okutegeera kwonna; naye toyinza kubeera na byombi.

Mu bigambo bino ebibiri ebitono mulimu eddagala ly’obulumi bw’omutima obw’emirundi lukumi, n’eggulu ery’emirembe n’amaanyi—SIGALA MUWOOMU.

“Mbawa emirembe gyange” (Yokaana 14:27).

Wano we wali ekyama eky’emirembe egy’olubeerera—emirembe gya Katonda. Twewaayo eri Katonda, Omwoyo Omutukuvu n’atwala ekifuba kyaffe. Mazima giba “Mirembe, Mirembe.” Naye mu kiseera ekyo kyennyini Setaani w’atandikira okutukyusa, era akikola ng’ayita mu birowoozo byaffe, ng’abiwugula oba ng’abitaataaganya ng’ekiseera bwe kimwetaagisa. Kino kye kiseera eky’okukakasa obwesimbu bw’okwewaayo kwaffe n’obumu bw’omutima gwaffe. Bwe tuba twegomba ddala Okubeerawo kwe okusinga ebirala byonna, tujja kukyuka okuva ku buli kirowoozo ekiwakanya ne tutunuulira Yesu obutakyusa maaso. Naye bwe tuba twegomba okumatiza okwegomba kwaffe okusinga Okubeerawo kwe, tujja kugondera ekigambo eky’obusungu oba ekirowoozo ekitaliimu oba eky’okwesanyusaamu eky’ekibi, era bwe tudda, Omusumba waffe aba agenze, ne twewuunya lwaki emirembe gyaffe gitulese. Okulemererwa kutera okubaawo mu kantu akatono, era okulemererwa kw’omwoyo kubaddewo mu kantu akatono, okusinga ekirowoozo oba ekigambo, era omwoyo ogwandibadde tegutya kulinnya lusozi gwesittadde ddala ku kasubi.

Ekyama ekituufu eky’okuwummula okutuukiridde kwe kubeera nga tufa ku Yesu n’obunyiikivu, era nga tumulowoozaako bulijjo ng’empisa.

“Oyo ali mu mmwe wa maanyi okusinga oyo ali mu nsi” (1 Yokaana 4:4).

Setaani ayagala nnyo okutwesittaza ku bintu ebitono. Ensonga y’ekyo eri nti okutera kuba buwanguzi bunene gy’ali, era kiraga nti asobola okututaataaganya n’akapapajjo n’okutusuula wansi n’akasubi. Kwe kwenyumiriza okw’edda okw’Abayebusi, bwe baagamba Dawudi nti basobola okukuuma Yerusaalemi n’eggye ery’abazibe b’amaaso n’abalema. Abasinga obungi mu ffe tukola bulungi mu ntalo zaffe ennene okusinga mu ntono zaffe. Adamu yagwa olw’ekibala ekitono eky’apo, naye ensi yonna n’ezikirira. Mwegendereze, abaagalwa, ebyesittaza ebitono, era temuleka Setaani kubasekerera, n’ategeeza abaweereza be engeri gye yabesittaza n’ekikuta ky’omucungwa. Era nate, Setaani bw’aba ayagala okuziyiza omukisa omunene mu bulamu bwaffe, atera okugusuulako ekisiikirize ekibi n’agufuula nga tegusanyusa gye tuli. Nga bangi mu ffe abaabadde beewala amazima, ebifo n’abantu Katonda mwe yeeraze nate, ekyo ekyandibadde omukisa ogusinga obunene mu bulamu bwaffe, era Setaani asobodde okutwewalisa byo olw’ekyekubiira ekikyamu oba eky’obusirusiru!

“Nga bwe mwazuukirira” (Abakkolosaayi 3:1).

Katonda alindiridde ku makya gano okutuusa ku buli mutima omwetegefu era ogwagala, mu ssaawa ezisooka, okukoma kw’obulamu n’amaanyi okunaayimusa obulamu bwaffe okutuuka ku ssanyu erisingako, ne kussa mu maaso gaffe ensalosalo ez’essuubi n’obuweereza obutukuvu ezisingako obunene.

Tetuutege kunoonya wala okuzuula Mukama waffe eyazuukira. Yakulembera n’oyo eyasooka okumunoonya ku makya g’Okuzuukira ago, era anaatulindirira ng’obudde tebunnakya n’okulamusa kwe okw’essanyu nti “Mirembe,” bwe tuba n’amaaso agalaba n’emitima egimwaniriza era egimugondera.

Bubaka ki bw’atutumidde mu kiseera kino eky’okumera? “Nga bwe mwazuukirira awamu ne Kristo, munoonyenga ebintu ebiri mu ggulu, Kristo gy’atudde ku mukono ogwa ddyo ogwa Katonda. Kubanga mwafa era n’obulamu bwammwe bukwekeddwa mu Kristo mu Katonda.”

Si kuyimuka buyimusi ne Kristo, wabula kuzuukizibwa. Si kulinnya katono waggulu mu bulamu obukadde, wabula kuzuukira mu bafu. Okuzuukira tekuliba na makulu gasukka ku ago okufa ge kubadde nako. Tuliba balamu naye okutuuka awo wokka we tuba tufudde ddala.

“Nammwe mwerowoozenga okuba abalamu eri Katonda” (Abaruumi 6:11).

Okufa kwa kaseera buseera. Obulamu bwa mirembe gyonna. Kale mubeere abalamu, mmwe abaana b’okuzuukira, ku bulamu bwe obw’ekitiibwa, nga mweyongera bulijjo mu bugagga bwabwo, n’okujjula kw’obulamu bwammwe kunaagoba okuyingira kw’ekyeggya n’ekibi, ne kuwangula ekibi n’ekirungi, era obulamu bwammwe tebuliba kwekuba bugumu okw’ennaku okw’okulwana kwammwe mmwe, wabula amayengo agasukkulukuka ag’obulamu bwa Kristo obuwangula obwa nnamaddala.

Lumu mu lukuŋŋaana lw’eddiini ow’oluganda omwagalwa yatuwa okwogera okusanyusa ennyo ku bulamu obw’okuzuukira. Awo ow’oluganda omulala n’ayimirira n’ayogera ebbanga ddene ku bwetaavu bw’okwekomerera. Entuuyo ennyogovu zaatukwata ffenna, era twali tetusobola kutegeera lwaki. Naye bwe yamala, mwannyinaffe omulungi n’annyonnyola embeera yonna ng’agamba nti “Omusumba S. yali atuggye ffenna mu ntaana n’okwogera kwe, ate Omusumba P. atuzzeeyo nate.”

Toddayo mu ntaana nate ng’omaze okuvaamu, naye beera mulamu nga Ye, “omulamu era eyali afudde, naye laba! kaakano mulamu emirembe gyonna, era alina ebisumuluzo eby’okufa n’amagombe.” Beera wabweru w’entaana, oluggi lusigale nga lusibiddwa, n’ebisumuluzo biri mu mikono gye egyazuukira.

“Nnumirwa nate ng’alumwa okuzaala, okutuusa Kristo lw’alibumbibwa mu mmwe” (Abaggalatiya 4:19).

Kiba kiseera kya mukisa bwe tuzaalibwa omulundi ogwokubiri, omutima omuggya ne gutondebwa mu ffe mu kifaananyi kya Katonda. Kiba kiseera kya mukisa gusingako, Kristo yennyini bw’azaalibwa mu mutima guno omuggya, ekiseera kya Ssekukkulu ne kiddamu okubaawo mu ffe, nga ffe, mu ngeri ey’amazima, tufuuka abo Kristo omulamu mw’abeera mu mubiri. Ge makulu g’Obukristaayo agasinga obuziba n’obutukuvu. Gayogerwa mu kusaba kwa Pawulo eri Abaggalatiya. “Baana bange be nnumirwa nate ng’alumwa okuzaala, okutuusa Kristo lw’alibumbibwa mu mmwe.”

Wakyaliwo ekiseera eky’ekitiibwa ekisingako, ffe, nga Ye, lwe tulikyusibwa ne tufuulibwa mu kitiibwa kye, era mu kuzuukira ne tubeera, mu mwoyo, mu bulamu ne mu mubiri, nga Ye bw’ali.

Tubeere abalamu, wansi w’amaanyi g’ekirowoozo kino ekikubiriza, nga ffe Kristo mw’abeera mu mubiri; nga tetubeera bulamu bwaffe, wabula obulamu bwa Kristo, era nga tulaga ebirungi, si ebyaffe ffe, wabula eby’Oyo eyatuyita “okuva mu kizikiza n’atuyingiza mu butangaavu bwe obutenkanika”; bwe kityo obulamu bwaffe bulibeera eri bonna okuddamu okubeera obulamu bwa Kristo mu kifo kyaffe, nga bwe yandibubadde, singa yali wano.

“Empeke y’eŋŋaano bw’egwa mu ttaka efa, bwe tefa ebeera yokka” (Yokaana 12:24).

Okufa n’okuzuukira bye birowoozo ebikulu eby’obutonde n’eby’Obukristaayo. Tubiraba mu kukyusibwa kw’ekiwojjolo nga kiva mu kisusu kyakyo, mu nsigo eziikiddwa ng’emera n’efuuka omutunsi n’ekimuli eky’ekiseera eky’okumera, mu kukyusibwa kw’olugoye olw’okuziika olw’ekiseera eky’obunnyogovu ne lufuuka engoye ez’amabala amangi ez’ekiseera eky’okumera. Tukiraba mu Bayibuli yonna mu kabonero k’okukomolebwa, n’amakulu gaako ag’okufa n’obulamu, mu kusomoka Ennyanja Emyufu ne Yoludaani, okumu nga kufulumya n’okulala nga kuyingiza, ne mu Musaalaba gwa Kalvaali n’entaana eyaggulwa ku makya g’Okuzuukira. Tukiraba mu buli bulamu obw’omwoyo obw’obuziba. Buli bulamu obw’amazima buzaalibwa mu kufa, era okufa gye kukoma okuba okw’obuziba, obulamu gye bukoma okuba obw’amazima. Tetubuusabuusa nti emyezi egibadde giyitawo gitulaze ffenna ebifo bingi awandibadde entaana, n’ebisasiro bingi eby’obuzaaliranwa n’eby’ekibi ebikyasigaddewo, bye twandiyagadde n’essanyu okuteeka mu ntaana etaliiko bukomo. Katonda atuyambe okusala omusango gw’okufa ogutakyusibwa, era tuleke Omwoyo Omutukuvu, omuziisi omukulu, afuule okuziika okwo okw’emirembe gyonna. Olwo obulamu bwaffe bunaabeeranga nga bumera era nga bumulisa, nga buyiwa akaloosa ku byonna.

“Mirembe” (Matayo 28:9).

Kwali kulamusa okukubiriza Mukama w’Obulamu kwe yayogera eri abayigirizwa be abaasooka ku makya g’okuzuukira. Kigambo kimasamasa era kitangaala kye twandyagadde okwogera mu linnya lye eri abaana be abaagalwa ku ntandikwa y’olunaku olulala. Kitegeeza bingi okusinga ebirabika kungulu. Mazima kwe kusaba olw’obulamu bwaffe obw’omubiri, naye tewali ayinza kukitegeera mu bujjuvu wabula abo abakkiriza okuwonyezebwa kw’omubiri. Mukwano gwange omulowooza lumu yagamba nti ekigambo “hail” mu Lungereza kitegeeza ddala obulamu obulungi obw’omubiri, era y’engeri enkadde ey’Olusaakisoni ey’ekigambo ekyo. Ffenna tumanyi nti omuntu “hale” ye muntu alina obulamu obulungi. Obubaka bwa Mukama waffe, noolwekyo, mu makulu gaabwo bwali kulamusa okwo kwe tulamusaganya okuva edda n’edda bwe tusisinkana. “Obulamu bwo buli butya?” “Oli otya?” oba, ekisingako obulungi, “Nkwagaliza obulamu obulungi.” Kristo ky’ayagaliza kyenkana ekisuubizo n’ekiragiro. Kifaanana nnyo n’omukisa Omutume Yokaana gwe yasabira mukwano gwe omwagalwa Gayo, era naffe twandyagadde okuguddiŋŋana eri mikwano gyaffe abaagalwa okusinziira ku kujjula kw’okwagala kwa Mukama waffe.

“Ndi mulamu emirembe gyonna” (Okubikkulirwa 1:18).

Buno bwe bubaka bwa Kristo ow’omusaalaba, ne Kristo ow’okuzuukira ow’ekitiibwa ekisingako era ow’omuwendo ogusingako. Kirungi era kizzaamu amaanyi okulaba ekitangaala n’ekitiibwa ebigambo bino ebyangu bye biyambaza omusaalaba. Tekigambibwa nti Nze eyali afudde era omulamu, wabula nti “Nze omulamu, nnali nfudde naye kaakano ndi mulamu emirembe gyonna.” Obulamu bwogerwako okufa nga tekunnayogerwako. Waliwo engeri bbiri ez’okutunuulira omusaalaba. Emu ya ku ludda lw’okufa, endala ya ku ludda lw’obulamu. Emu ye Ecce Homo, endala ye Yesu agulumizibbwa ng’alina enkovu z’emisumaali n’ey’effumu zokka. Bwe tutyo bwe tulina okutunuulira omusaalaba. Tetulina kutambula nga twetisse obuvundu bw’entaana, wabula ekitiibwa ky’okuzuukira. Si Ecce Homo, wabula Kristo Omulamu. Bwe kityo okukomererwa kwaffe kulina okuba okujjuvu ennyo nga kubulira mu kuzuukira kwaffe, ne twerabira n’ennaku yaffe, ne twetikka ekitangaala n’ekitiibwa eky’enkya ey’emirembe n’emirembe. Kale tubeere mu bulamu obuzaalibwa mu kufa, obuggya bulijjo era obujjudde obulamu obutayinza kufa, kubanga “bwafa, naye kaakano bulamu emirembe gyonna.”

“Buli ayagala okulokola obulamu bwe, alibufiirwa” (Lukka 9:24).

Okusookera ddala, Kristo ayigiriza okuzuukira n’obulamu. Amaanyi g’Obukristaayo bwe bulamu. Tebutuleetera mateeka gokka, oba obuvunaanyizibwa, oba ekyokulabirako, awamu n’okuyigiriza n’okubuulirira okwa waggulu era okutukuvu. Butuleetera amaanyi ag’okugoberera ekiruubirirwa ekya waggulu, n’obulamu obukola ebyo ebiragirwa ku bwabwo. Naye si bulamu bwokka, wabula bulamu bwa kuzuukira.

Era butandika n’akaseera ak’ensalo ak’amazima, ekikolwa ekitegeerekeka obulungi, akaseera akategeerekeka ng’emmambya bw’esala. Si kufa okutaggwaawo na kulwana okutaggwaawo okuba abalamu. Wabula byonna byogerwa mu ngeri ey’okwogera eraga ekintu ekikakafu, ekinywevu era ekikoleddwa ne kiggwa. Twafiira ddala mu kaseera akagere, era mu kaseera ako twatandikira ddala okubeera mu bulamu obw’okuzuukira.

Twerowoozenga okuba abaafiira ddala eri ekibi, naye abalamu eri Katonda mu Kristo Yesu.

Era okufa kkubo bukubo era mulyango, Eri obulamu obutalifa nate; N’omusaalaba gutwala eri engule ey’olubeerera, Yoludaani eri olubalama lwa Kanani olumasamasa.

“Ntegeeza gy’owumuliza endiga zo mu ssaawa ez’omu ttuntu” (Oluyimba 1:7).

Abaagalwa, temwegomba kasiriikiriro ka Katonda, ebisenge eby’omunda, ekisiikirize kya Katonda Ayinzabyonna, ekyama eky’okubeerawo kwe? Obulamu bwammwe, oboolyawo, bubadde bwa kwekubiriza n’okukola buli kiseera, oba oboolyawo bwa kwekaka, okulwana, okwegomba nga temufuna.

“Mubeere mu Nze” (Yokaana 15:4).

Obukristaayo buyinza okutegeeza enteekateeka y’eddiini bweteeka. Obulamu obw’Ekikristaayo buyinza okutegeeza okufuba okw’amazima era okw’obwesimbu okugoberera n’okukoppa Kristo, nga tewali kirala.

Obulamu bwa Kristo businga bino, era bulaga okwegatta kwaffe okw’amazima ne Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo, era awatali kubuusabuusa ali mu ffe ng’obulamu era ensibuko y’ebyo byonna bye tuyitamu ne bye tukola.

Endowooza eno ey’obulamu obw’Ekikristaayo obusingayo waggulu ya ngu era ya kitiibwa okusinga endala yonna. Mu mpapula zino tetuyigiriza nti ekigendererwa ky’okununula kwa Kristo kwe kutuzzaayo mu butuukirivu bwa Adamu obujjuvu, kubanga singa tubufuna twandibufiiriddwa enkya; wabula kwe kutwegattira ku Adamu Owookubiri, n’okutulinnyisa ku mutindo ogwa waggulu okusinga bazadde baffe abaasooka gwe baali bamanyi.

Kino kye kintu kyokka ekisobola okutabaganya ebitundu ebiwakana eby’enjigiriza ez’enjawulo ku bikwata ku bulamu obw’Ekikristaayo.

Ekintu ekimu okukkiriza kwe kwesigama bulijjo abadde Katonda omulamu, era ye yekka. Abaana ba Isirayiri baali beesigamye ddala ku Yakuwa nga batambula mu ddungu, era ensonga emu abalabe baabwe kye baava babatya ne banguwa okwewaayo, kwe kuba nti baategeera nga wakati mu bo mulimu eddoboozi lya kabaka ery’omwanguka, n’okubeerawo kw’Oyo amaanyi gaabwe gonna bwe gageraageranyizibwa gy’ali nga tegaliimu.

“Omuntu si y’aluŋŋamya amakubo ge” (Yeremiya 10:23).

Ng’ogattiddwa ku Yesu Kristo ng’Omununuzi wo, okkiriziddwa mu Mwana, gw’ayagala ennyo. Takoma ku kutwala kifo kyange ng’omuntu n’okusasula amabanja gange. Akola ekyo n’ebisingawo.
