Amafuta

Mu ssuula ey’okubiri, nnannyonnyola okufukibwako amafuta nga Katonda okuteeka akabonero ke, okusiima kwe, ku muntu oba ku buweereza, ne kivaamu okukwata okw’emirembe n’emirembe ku bulamu bw’abo abaweerezebwa.

Tewali kubuusabuusa nti afuka amafuta ge ku buweereza obumu, era ne walabika ebivaamu eby’ekitalo ebitaliiwo muntu yenna eyandisobodde okubitegeka. Mu kiseera kino (mu 1999), okugeza, waliwo Olugendo lw’Okutabagana (Reconciliation Walk) olugenda mu maaso, nga abakkiriza abatono batambulira mu bigere by’Abalwanyi b’Omusaalaba (Crusaders) bye baatambula emyaka lwenda emabega. Abakristaayo abo ab’edda bajjukirwa olw’obutemu, okukwata abakazi n’obubbi bye baakola nga batambula okuyita mu Bulaaya, nga bagenda e Yerusaalemi okununula Ekibuga Ekitukuvu okuva mu mikono gy’Abasiraamu.

Kumpi buli Musiraamu oba Muyudaaya gwe baasobolanga okukwata battibwa. Baasiga ensigo z’obukyayi n’obutategeeragana Omusiraamu ow’olwa leero by’alina eri Omukristaayo. Abatambuze ab’olwa leero balina ekigendererwa kya njawulo ddala. Buli gye bagenda, batuukirira abakulembeze b’Abasiraamu n’ebbaluwa ey’okwetonda esomebwa mu Luwarabu, mu Lungereza ne mu lulimi olw’ekitundu ekyo. Tewali kigambo kya kyama kyonna ekiri emabega waayo, wabula okwetegeeza n’okukkiriza mu buwombeefu ebibi ebyakolebwa edda ennyo wansi w’ebendera y’omusaalaba. Ku nkomerero ya 1999, basuubira okutuuka e Yerusaalemi n’obubaka bwabwe obw’okwenenya n’okutabagana.

Ba imaamu n’abakulembeze b’emizikiti baakyanukudde n’okwewuunya n’okukkiriza, abamu ne batuuka n’okugerageranya okujja kw’Abakristaayo bano ku kulabikira kwa Katonda (epiphany) - Katonda okukyalira abantu be mu lwatu. Empapula z’amawulire ez’eggwanga, ttivvi ne leediyo bitambuzza alipoota ennungi nnyingi eri abantu bonna ab’omu nsi zaabwe.

Waliwo abasajja n’abakazi amannya gaabwe agakwatagana n’ekikolwa kino eky’ekitalo, naye bonna baagala nnyo okusigala emabega, Katonda ng’akola ku mitima gy’amawanga g’Abasiraamu ab’omu Bulaaya. Mazima amafuta ge gali ku buweereza buno.

Nkakasa nti naawe osobola okulowooza ku buweereza Katonda gy’asiimira mu lwatu, era nga waliwo okukwata okunene okw’emirembe n’emirembe okukolebwa. Kyokka, waliwo pulogulaamu endala nnyingi nnyo, ezitaazaalibwa mu mutima gwa Katonda wabula mu birowoozo by’omuntu. Eyazitandika ayinza okuba omwesimbu era ng’amaliridde ddala mu kwewaayo kwe eri omulimu ogwo - era Katonda ayinza okumuwa obuwanguzi obumu okussa ekitiibwa mu bwesigwa bwe - naye amafuta gaba matono oba nga tegaliiwo n’akatono. Mbaddeko ne mu buweereza obunene mwe nnalabira ebyokulabirako bingi nnyo eby’empisa embi n’endowooza ezeesigamye ku muntu yekka (humanistic), byonna mu linnya ly’okutumbula Enjiri.

Abantu baanyigirizibwanga mu ngeri ey’ebyobufuzi, emirimu gyabwe ne gitiisibwatiisibwa, embeera ne zikyusibwakyusibwa, ebitundu by’amazima ne byogerwa (tebyawukana ku bulimba!), kyokka nga kigendereddwamu tusobole okweyongerayo ne pulogulaamu yaffe nga tewali biremya bingi. Emmeeme zaalokolebwa - ekisa kya Katonda si kya kitalo? - naye oluvannyuma abantu ne bakkiriza nti ekituukibwako kye kiwa engeri ey’okukituukamu obutuufu, ne beeyongera okutegeka pulogulaamu yaabwe eddirira ku musingi gwe gumu, ogunyeenya. Ekisa kya Katonda twandikirabye kitya n’okusingawo singa twakuuma obwesimbu n’obuwombeefu mu maaso ge?

Waliwo abantu bangi leero abalina ‘obuweereza’ obunene abandibadde bawangula mu ngeri y’emu singa baatandika bizinensi ey’ensi. Obuweereza buzimbibwa ku kisikiriza kyabwe (charisma) oba ku bukugu bwabwe mu bya bizinensi, mu kifo ky’okuzimbibwa ku birabo by’Omwoyo (charismata) ne ku mafuta ga Katonda. Mazima eno y’emu ku nsonga enkulu lwaki bangi mu makanisa gaffe bali ba kungulu mu kukkiriza kwabwe era nga balemeddwa okuba abawanguzi Yesu b’atuyita, era b’asuubira, okuba; lwaki amakanisa mangi n’abasumba bangi batawaana, era lwaki amaanyi ga Setaani gawangula ebisinga obungi ku ebyo bye tuyita ekkanisa; lwaki endowooza ez’ensi ezeesigamye ku muntu yekka ez’amagavumenti gaffe zikwatibwako kitono bwe kityo.

Twetaaga nnyo ddala abasajja, abakazi ne pulogulaamu ebiriko amafuta ga Katonda. Lwaki afuka amafuta ge ku pulogulaamu z’atatandika, ne ku bantu b’atategeka era b’atasumulula kuyingira mu buweereza mwe bali? Alina abantu b’atisse omugugu, abategese, era alindirira okubata mu buweereza bwe asobole okulaga ekitiibwa kye ng’ayita mu bo mu mafuta amangi.

Oluusi si bakkiriza aba bulijjo abeetaaga okutebwa, wabula abasumba!

Nnakyalira amaka ga Jim ne Cathy, abafumbo abavubuka mu Queensland, Australia. Jim yali omuwabuzi (consultant) wa bizinensi entono ezaali zirowooza okugaziwa era ezaali zeetaaga amagezi g’omukugu ku bulabe obuyinza okuva mu kikolwa ng’ekyo. Yantegeeza engeri gye baalwanagana mu by’ensimbi okumala emyaka mitono, kubanga kkampuni ezimu zaali tezimukozesa olw’okugaana kwe okwenyigira mu ‘kuliisa enguzi’ ba dayirekita ba kkampuni. Jim ne Cathy baasinzanga mu kkanisa abantu abajjangamu nga batera obutasukka mu makumi ana.

Omwaka gumu ye n’omusumba we baagenda mu lugendo lw’okubuulira enjiri mu Papua New Guinea, eggwanga eritakulaakulana erisinga okuba okumpi, eriri ebweru w’olubalama lw’ennyanja olw’obukiikakkono obw’ebuvanjuba obwa Australia. Bwe baakomawo eka, Jim yali ajjudde essanyu ng’anyumya emboozi z’engeri Mukama gye yafuka amafuta ge ku buweereza bwabwe, naddala obw’omusumba waabwe.

“Cathy,” bwe yagamba, “omusumba waffe yali afukiddwako amafuta mangi bwe yali aweereza abantu b’e Papua New Guinea. Omwoyo wa Mukama yamukozesa mu ngeri ey’ekitalo, era abantu bangi ne bakkiriza Kristo. Twetaaga okumusindikayo emirundi mingi, naye mmanyi nti tasobola kukisasulira, n’ekkanisa nayo tesobola mu kiseera kino. Tusobola okunyiga ku nsimbi ze tufuna ne tuterekako ensimbi buli mwezi, tusobole okuzimba ekitereke eky’okusindika omusumba mu lugendo lw’okubuulira enjiri emirundi mingi?”

Ekyo baakkiriza okukikola. Baali bagenda kuta omusumba waabwe mu buweereza bwe yateekebwamu. Jim bwe yannyumiza emboozi eno oluvannyuma lw’omwaka gumu, yagattako ekyongerezebwako eky’ekitalo. Mu mwaka ogwo gumu, bizinensi ye yafuna ensimbi emirundi kkumi okusinga ze baali bafunye mu mwaka gwonna ogwayita, era tebaasobola kusindika musumba waabwe mu Papua New Guinea emirundi mitono kyokka, naye era baasobola n’okusasulira abalala abawerako okuva mu kkanisa okumuwerekerako mu buweereza!

Omulimu gwa Jim gwali gwe gumu, naye kkampuni ezaali zimukozesa kaakano zaamusasulanga ebisale ebisinga nnyo ebyo bye yali afunyeeko emabega. Katonda teyali afuka mafuta ku buweereza bw’omusumba waabwe kyokka, naye era yali afuka amafuta ne ku buweereza bwa Jim ne Cathy obw’‘okugaba n’omutima omugazi.’ Jim ayinza obutabeera mubuulizi oba mubuulizi wa njiri, naye azudde obuweereza bwe era amatidde nnyo, ng’abuuka ng’empungu.

Emboozi yali ya kitalo n’okusingawo omulundi ogwaddirira bwe nnakyalira Jim ne Cathy. Yantegeeza engeri ensimbi z’afuna gye zeeyongeranga emirundi ebiri buli mwaka okuva lwe nnabaawo, kale kaakano yali afuna emirundi munaana okusinga bye yali afuna. “Kyokka,” bwe yagattako, “ojja kulaba nti nkyabeera mu nnyumba y’emu era nkyalina emmotoka y’emu (entono) mu luggya lwange. Ekyo kiri kityo kubanga, mu myaka ena egiyise tusindise buli muntu w’omu kkanisa yaffe mu nnimiro y’okubuulira enjiri, abamu emirundi egiwerako. Lwaki twandyagadde ennyumba ennene oba emmotoka esinga obulungi ng’ate tusanyuka bwe tutyo nga tuweereza Mukama?”

Yesu ‘yazaalibwa ku bwa Mwoyo Mutukuvu’, mu ngeri etafaanana na yaffe ffenna abeetaaga ‘okuzaalibwa omulundi ogwokubiri’ ku bw’Omwoyo oyo omu, tusobole naffe, nga ye, okuyitibwa abaana ba Katonda. Omwoyo wa Katonda yabeera mu muntu Yesu.

Mazima yali Mwana wa Katonda eyajja mu mubiri gw’omuntu. Kigambo (Katonda okwebikkulira) yali afuuse omubiri, n’abeera mu ffe. Lumu, Yesu n’ajja eri muganda we, Yokaana, eyali abatiza abantu mu mugga Yoludaani. Okubatiza kwe tekwali kwa kuzaalibwa buggya, wadde okw’okwatula okukkiriza mu lwatu, wabula okw’okwenenya n’okudda mu njigiriza entuufu ey’Amateeka.

“Mbatiza, Yokaana,” Yesu bwe yagamba.

“Siyinza kukubatiza , Yesu. Nze neetaaga ggwe okumbatiza!” Yokaana bwe yagamba.

“Mbatiza, Yokaana,” Yesu n’addamu okwogera, “Tusobole okutuukiriza obutuukirivu bwonna.”

Awo Yokaana n’amubatiza.

“Awo Mwoyo Mutukuvu n’amukkako mu kifaananyi eky’ejjiba, eddoboozi ne liva mu ggulu ne ligamba nti, “Ggwe Mwana wange omwagalwa gwe nsanyukira ennyo.”

Amangwago Mwoyo n’amutwala mu ddungu, gye yali agenda okumala ennaku amakumi ana ez’akasiriikiriro. Ziyitibwa ez’akasiriikiriro lwa kuba nti tetulina kyawandiikibwa ku ekyo ekyaliwo okutuusa lw’akemebwa Setaani ku nkomerero y’ekiseera ekyo. Okuteebereza tekulina kabi kwe kuleeta okuggyako nga tukufuula enjigiriza, naye emirundi mingi nneebuuzizza lwaki Omwoyo Omutukuvu yamukulembera bw’atyo.

Nzize okukkiriza nti ennaku ezo amakumi ana yazimala ng’ali awamu ne Kitaawe, gye yayigira ekkubo eryamuteekebwa mu maaso, olugendo oluyita mu Gesusemane ne ku Kalvaali olwokka olwandisobodde okugula okununulibwa kwaffe. Yaweebwa obuweereza bwe .

Yesu bwe yakomawo mu kibuga ky’ewaabwe e Nazaaleesi, yayingira mu kkuŋŋaaniro, n’akwata Ebyawandiikibwa n’asoma nti, “Omwoyo wa Mukama ali ku nze. Anfuseeko amafuta okubuulira abaavu Enjiri. Antumye okubuulira abasibe okuteebwa, n’abazibe b’amaaso okuzibulwa amaaso balabe, n’abanyigirizibwa okufuna eddembe, n’okulangirira ekiseera kya Mukama eky’okulagiramu ekisa kye.”

...era ekyo kye yatandika okukola. Teyakkiriza byetaago n’ebyo abalala bye baayagalanga kumuggya mu kkubo lye.

Yokaana bwe yasuulibwa mu bisenge by’ekkomera ebyali wansi w’olubiri lwa Kerode, yasuubira nti muganda we Yesu ajja kubaako ky’akolawo. Kubanga, teyali wa kuteekawo bwakabaka bwe ku nsi?

Teyali wa kuggyawo Bwakabaka bw’Abaruumi ne ba Kerode baabwo? Teyali wa kuta basibe? Nga wayiseewo akaseera katono, kyeyoleka eri Omubatiza nti Yesu tajja kujja - ddala, teyatuma na kaadi esuubiza nti anaatera okuteebwa eri muganda we eyali mu kkomera! Yokaana n’ayita abamu ku bayigirizwa be bennyini n’abasaba banoonye Yesu, era bwe bamusanga bamubuuze ekibuuzo kino nti, “Ggwe wuuyo gwe tubadde tulindirira, nantiki tulindirireyo omulala?”

Yokaana ateekwa okuba nga yanyiiga ddala olw’okulaba nga Yesu tafaayo, kubanga tewali yandibadde akakasiddwa okusinga Yokaana yennyini nti Yesu ye Masiya. Yali yalagula, yali alabye ejjiba, era yali awulidde eddoboozi erimulangirira bw’atyo. Weetegereze eky’okuddamu Yesu kye yaweereza Yokaana.

“Muddeeyo eri Yokaana mumugambe bye mulaba ne bye muwulira. Abazibe b’amaaso balaba, n’abalema batambula. Abagenge balongoosebwa ne bakiggala bawulira, n’abafu bazuukizibwa n’abaavu babuulirwa Enjiri.

....era alina omukisa oyo atanneesittalako!”

Mu ngeri endala nti, “Nkola ddala ekyo kye nayitirwa, kye natendekerwa era kye nafukirwako amafuta okukola!”

Oba nga Yesu yennyini yali yeetaaga okufukibwako amafuta okusobola okutuukiriza obuweereza bwe, ffe tetwetaaga kusingawo?

Yali ajjudde Omwoyo Omutukuvu okuva ku kuzaalibwa kwe, naye yali yeetaaga okufukibwako amafuta g’Omwoyo nga tannatandika buweereza bwe!

Waliwo enjawulo nnene wakati w’ebintu bino ebibiri bye tuyitamu n’Omwoyo Omutukuvu, era okulemwa kwaffe okugitegeera kunafuya obuweereza bw’Omubiri gwa Kristo.

Ku Kuzaalibwa Okuggya ‘twabatizibwa mu Mwoyo omu, ne tufuuka omubiri gumu’, gwe Mubiri gwa Kristo. Kino kyasooka okutuuka ku bayigirizwa ennaku ssatu oluvannyuma lwa Kalvaali, Yesu bwe yajja gye bali mu kisenge ekyali kiggaddwa n’abassiza omukka , ng’agamba nti, “Mufune Mwoyo Mutukuvu!” (mu Luyonaani kiragiro kya ‘aorist imperative’ , ekitegeeza nti kikolebwe mu kiseera ekyo kyennyini). Baali ‘bazaalibwa omulundi ogwokubiri’ nga nange bwe nazaalibwa oluvannyuma lw’emyaka kumpi enkumi bbiri, nga nnina emyaka kkumi na musanvu, Omwoyo Omutukuvu oyo omu bwe yayingira mu bulamu bwange. Kino kye tuyita okuweebwa obutuukirivu.

Yokaana yategeeza abantu nti waliwo omulala ajja oluvannyuma lwe, alibabatiza ne Mwoyo Mutukuvu n’omuliro. Kino kye kyali ekisuubizo kya Kitaffe Yesu kye yayogerako bwe yalagira abayigirizwa be nti “mubeere mu kibuga okutuusa lwe mulyambazibwa amaanyi agava mu ggulu”. Kino kyasooka okubaawo ku lunaku lwa Pentekoote, wiiki musanvu oluvannyuma lwa Kalvaali, abo ekikumi mu abiri abaali bakuŋŋaanidde mu Kisenge ekya Waggulu bwe baaweebwa amaanyi mangi ddala, Yesu eyagulumizibwa bwe yababatiza ne Mwoyo Mutukuvu. Okubatizibwa kuno Yesu y’akukola, ng’abatiza mu Mwoyo Omutukuvu. Kya lwatu nti Ebyawandiikibwa byogera ku bintu bibiri eby’enjawulo bye tuyitamu.

Katonda ayagala buli mukkiriza ajjule Omwoyo. Kino kibaawo ng’ekintu ekituukira mu kiseera ekimu ekigere, ate era ng’ekintu ekigenda mu maaso, oluvannyuma lw’okulokoka.

Omutume Pawulo atukuutira mu Abaefeso 5:18 nti ‘Omwoyo ajjulenga mu bulamu bwammwe’. Kya lwatu nti, wadde ng’okubatizibwa (okujjuzibwa okusooka) Omwoyo Omutukuvu kikolwa kya Mukama yekka ky’akola nga bw’ayagala, ffe tulina obuvunaanyizibwa ku kujjula okugenda mu maaso. Waliwo kye tusobola okukola .

Pawulo yeeyongerayo n’obujulizi busatu obw’obulamu obujjudde Omwoyo: olunyiriri 19: omutima ogusinza; olunyiriri 20: omutima ogwebaza; olunyiriri 21: omutima ogw’omuweereza.

Essuula 5 esigaddewo n’ekitundu ekisinga eky’essuula 6, byakulabirako eby’engeri y’okubeeramu obulamu buno obujjudde Omwoyo mu nkolagana yaffe ne bannaffe be twafumbiriganwa nabo, abaana baffe ne bakozi bannaffe.

Eky’ennaku, okujjula kuno (oba okubatizibwa) Omwoyo Omutukuvu tukutabuddetabudde n’okufukibwako amafuta g’Omwoyo. Ekisooka kwe kujjula - munda mu ggwe; eky’okubiri kwe kuweebwa amaanyi - ku ggwe. Ekisooka kwe kutendekebwa okweteekerateekera obuweereza; eky’okubiri kijja oluvannyuma lw’okutebwa mu buweereza. Ekisooka kati kyesigamye ku mitima gyaffe n’okwegulawo kwaffe; eky’okubiri kikyali mu mikono gya Mukama yekka.

Waliwo entambula mu kkanisa leero, ey’okuddamu okukkiriza ebirabo eby’obuweereza eby’omu biseera by’Endagaano Empya, gamba ng’omutume ne nnabbi. Tetubadde na buzibu kuyita basajja ababuulizi b’enjiri, abasumba oba abayigiriza, naye bino ebibiri ebirala ebiwandiikiddwa mu Abaefeso 4 bitweraliikirizza katono okusingawo. Nzikiriza nti obuweereza buno bwandibadde mu kkanisa era nga bweyolekera mu mafuta gaabwo.

Kyokka eky’ennaku, emirundi mingi nnyo mbaddewo omwogezi ng’afundikira ekiseera kye ku katuuti ng’ayogera mu lwatu, ng’alagulira abantu ab’enjawulo mu kibiina ebigambo eby’obunnabbi eby’ebiseera eby’omu maaso. Bingi ku bino tebituukiririzanga ddala, era tewali n’omu avunaanye nnabbi oyo olw’ebigambo bye ebikyamu. Nga ndi musumba, nkoze ku mbeera nnyingi ez’ennaku ezaatuuka mu bulamu bw’abantu, olw’okukolera ku kubuulirira okw’obunnabbi okw’omulala. Mu nnaku z’Endagaano Enkadde, ekigambo kya nnabbi bwe kyabanga tekituufu, yattibwanga! Yayogeranga kyokka nga bw’amanyi nti alina amafuta ga Katonda!

Nga nsalako katono, nteekwa okutendereza ow’oluganda eyakyalira ekibuga ekimu olw’obuweereza, n’akiva ng’akirekedde ekigambo eky’amaanyi nti okufukibwa okw’amaanyi okw’Omwoyo wa Katonda kunaatera okugwa ku makanisa. “Singa mbadde musumba wano, nandisazizzaamu ebiwummulo byange” bwe yagamba, “ndyoke mbeere weeru eri abangi abajja okuyingira mu kkanisa yange mu myezi egijja.”

Abasumba abamu ekyo kye baakola ddala, ne baleka bakazi baabwe n’abaana baabwe okugenda mu biwummulo bokka.

Kyokka omwaka bwe gwali gunaatera okuggwaako, kyali kyeyolese nti tewali kya njawulo kyabaddewo, abakiikirira abasumba b’ekitundu ekyo ne bawandiikira nnabbi oyo ebbaluwa ey’ekitiibwa nga bamubuuza obanga waliwo kye baakola ekyakyusa omukisa gwa Katonda ne guva ku kibuga kyabwe. Eky’okuddamu kye kyali kya buwombeefu, ng’ayatula nti ‘yakyonoona’ era nti, olw’ensonga eyo, yali asazizzaamu enkuŋŋaana endala ez’obunnabbi okumala emyezi egiwerako, nga yeeteeka wansi w’okukangavvulwa kw’abakulembeze b’ekkanisa ye ey’ewaabwe. Yabasaba bamusonyiwe.

Okubuulirira okusinga obulungi kwe nnali mpulidde ku by’obunnabbi kwava eri Floyd McClung owa Youth With A Mission.

Yagamba nti, “Omuntu bw’akuwanga ekigambo eky’obunnabbi, kiteeke mu ddiroowa ery’awansi ery’akabada ko, ossibe eddiroowa eryo. Tekyakuweebwa lwa kukulungamya mu biseera bino, wabula okukuzzaamu amaanyi mu biseera eby’omu maaso.” Yeeyongerayo n’annyonnyola nti, obunnabbi obwo bwe buba buva eri Katonda, walijja ekiseera lw’oyinza okuba mu mbeera mw’oyinza okwetaaga okukakasibwa. Olwo ojja kujjukira obunnabbi obwakugamba nti kino kijja kubaawo, ekivaamu obwesige bwo bweyongere nti Katonda ye yakukulembera n’okutuusa wano.

Okutuukirira kw’obunnabbi bwe bujulizi bwokka obw’amafuta gaabwo.

Abantu banguwa okwegamba nti balina amafuta nga tebafaayo ku bbeeyi y’obutaba na mafuta. Obanga bannabbi ab’obulimba ab’Endagaano Enkadde battibwanga, omuntu yeebuuza Mukama bannabbi ab’obulimba ab’Endagaano Empya abatwala atya. Mikisa gye emingi egy’ensinga bafiirwa gy’enkana wa?

Okweraliikirira okufaanana bwe kutyo kuyinza okwogerwa ku bayigiriza. Pawulo yalabulanga buli kiseera ekkanisa ey’olubereberye ku bayigiriza ‘ab’obulimba’, n’engeri abantu gye “baligaana okuwulira enjigiriza entuufu, era olw’okugoberera okwegomba kwabwe balyekuŋŋaanyiza abayigiriza, abalibayigiriza bye baagala, okuwulira.”

Mmaze ekiseera mu Latin America, abayigiriza abamu ab’omu North America gye baagalibwa ennyo, nga balina ebitabo ne vidiyo bingi ebyavvuunulwa mu Lusipeyini ne mu Lupotugo. Ndabye vidiyo ne mikwano gyange Abalatino, omuyigiriza mw’ayogeredde ebigambo eby’obuyinza, nga tebirina we byesigama mu Bayibuli. Ayogera ebigambo bitaano, ebisatu ebisooka nga bituufu okusinziira ku Bayibuli, naye ebibiri ebisembayo nga bya kulowooza kwe yekka.

Kyokka abamuwuliriza bakkiriza byonna ebitaano ng’ebya Bayibuli, era abasumba bangi, nga tebalina bumanyirivu mu kusoma kwabwe bo n’okunoonyereza mu Bayibuli, bakkiriza enjigiriza eno ng’omusingi gw’enjigiriza yaabwe. Fuga endowooza y’omusumba, oba ofuze n’ekkanisa - mu bulungi oba mu bubi.

Nawandiika emabegako nti engeri y’omukadde w’ekkanisa emwawula ku mudiikoni kwe kuba nti ‘amanyi okuyigiriza’ (asobola era anguwa okukozesa Ekigambo). Omukadde w’ekkanisa ayigiriza obulungi asaanidde okutwalibwa ng’agwanidde ‘ekitiibwa kingi.’ Obuweereza bwe butwalibwa ng’obw’omuwendo ennyo, ekkanisa n’ebuteeka waggulu w’obulala bwonna n’‘ekitiibwa kingi.’ Lwaki?

Tusooke twongereko, nga tetunnaddamu kibuuzo, nti abakadde b’ekkanisa (abasumba n’abayigiriza) abalemererwa mu buweereza bwabwe balina okunenyezebwa mu maaso g’ekkanisa yonna! Ekitiibwa kingi, n’akabi kangi. Kino tekikwata ku kifo kirala kyonna mu kkanisa!

Tuddeyo ku kibuuzo. Lwaki omuyigiriza y’afuna ekitiibwa kingi, so si nnabbi oba omubuulizi w’enjiri, oba omulala yenna?

Ka nteebereze nti ensonga eyinza okunnyonnyolwa ebyokulabirako bino wammanga.

Omubuulizi w’enjiri bw’akola omulimu gwe obulungi, aleeta abakkiriza abapya bangi mu kkanisa. Bw’agukola obubi, tayongera mukkiriza mupya n’omu mu kkanisa. Ekivaamu kiba nti tewali n’omu oba bangi, era kiba kya kwongerako bwongezi.

Omuyigiriza bw’akola omulimu gwe obulungi, azaala abayigirizwa bangi abeeyongera obungi bokka. Bw’agukola obubi, naye azaala abayigirizwa bangi, abayigirizwa ababi abeeyongera obungi bokka. Ekivaamu kiba bangi abalungi oba bangi ababi, bombi nga balina obusobozi okweyongera obungi.

“Katonda yabateekawo mu kkanisa … abayigiriza” Pawulo bwe yawandiika. Yeeyongerayo n’abuuza nti, “Bonna bayigiriza?” Twetaaga abayigiriza abafukiddwako amafuta g’Omwoyo okuyigiriza obugagga bwa Kristo obukwekeddwa. Teweegamba kuyitibwa kwonna okw’obuweereza bw’ekkanisa, gamba ng’omusumba, omuyigiriza oba nnabbi, okuggyako ng’abalala bakutadde mu buweereza obwo, nga bategedde omugugu n’ekirabo ebyeyoleka bye wafuna okuva eri Mukama. Kya kabi okwegamba amafuta awatali mafuta. Ekyo si kukkiriza - kwe kwetwalira ekitakuweereddwa, era kibi.

Waliwo entambula leero mu bakkiriza abaggwaamu essuubi ey’okutandika amakanisa ag’omu maka. Bakooye enzimba ey’amadaala ey’ekkanisa y’ekibiina kyabwe, nga bakkiriza nti tetuukana na Bayibuli era nti ya kufuga bantu. Eky’ennaku, amakanisa gano mangi nnyo gakoma mu mbeera y’emu ng’ekkanisa gye baava, ‘abakulembeze’ ab’obuyinza abafuga abantu bwe batuuka waggulu. Kya butonde bwa muntu okufuga abo be tutwala ng’abanafu oba abatatusinga bukugu.

Omutume Pawulo bwe yasimba amakanisa ag’omu maka mu Asia Minor, yateekawo abakadde b’ekkanisa okulabirira ebibiina ebyo ebyali byakatandika. Obwo buweereza Katonda bw’awa. Obuyinza bw’omukulembeze tebuli mu kitiibwa ky’erinnya lye, wabula mu mafuta ge ng’omukadde w’ekkanisa.

Bw’atuukiriza ddala ebisaanyizo bya Bayibuli eby’omukadde w’ekkanisa nga bwe biri mu Tito ne mu 1 Timoseewo, ekkanisa ey’omu maka eyo eba n’obusobozi bungi okukula wansi w’amafuta ga Mukama.
