Ellen White analemba kalata yotsatirayi mu 1858 pamene anali kudya nkhumba. Nthawi zina zimatchulidwa kusonyeza kuti malingaliro a Ellen White anali kusintha. Iwo amanena kuti zimenezi zikanapitirizabe ngati akanakhalabe ndi moyo mpaka pano. Choncho sikuli bwino kukana zatsopano zomwe zimatsutsana ndi mawu awo.

Koma ngati muŵerenga kalatayi mosamalitsa, mudzapeza kuti ilibe mawu alionse amene pambuyo pake munafunikira kuwabweza mwanjira iriyonse. Zomwe adalembera mdzukulu wake Mabel zaka 47 pambuyo pake zimagwiranso ntchito ku kalata iyi:

'Ndikuyang'ana zolemba zanga ndi makalata omwe ndinalemba zaka zambiri zapitazo, kuyambira ndisanapite ku Ulaya, musanabadwe. Ndili ndi zinthu zofunika kwambiri zoti ndifalitse. Ikhoza kuperekedwa ku mpingo monga umboni. Malingana ngati ndingathe kutero, ndikofunikira kuti ndipatse anthu ammudzi. Kenako zakale zitha kukhalanso zamoyo ndipo zimawonekeratu kuti chingwe chowongoka cha chowonadi chimadutsa muzonse zomwe ndalemba, popanda chiganizo chimodzi chachinyengo. Iyi, ndinalangizidwa, iyenera kukhala kalata yanga yamoyo ya chikhulupiriro kwa onse. ”(Letter 329a 1905)

Wokondedwa m'bale A, mlongo wokondedwa A,

Yehova mwa ubwino wake anaona kuti n’koyenera kuti andipatse masomphenya pamalo amenewo. Pakati pa zinthu zambiri zomwe ndinaziwona, zina zimanena za inu. Anandionetsa kuti mwatsoka si zonse zili bwino ndi inu. Mdani akufuna kukuwonongani komanso kukopa ena kudzera mwa inu. Nonse mudzakhala pa malo aulemu omwe Mulungu sanakupatseni inu. Mumadziona kuti ndinu apamwamba kwambiri poyerekeza ndi anthu a Mulungu. Mwansanje komanso okayikitsa mumayang'ana ku Battle Creek. Mungakonde kulowererapo ndikusintha zomwe zikuchitika kumeneko malinga ndi malingaliro anu. Mumatchera khutu ku tinthu ting’onoting’ono tomwe simukumvetsa, tating’ono ting’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono, tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono, tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono tomwe simukumvetsa, tating’ono tating’ono tating’ono ndi inu, ndipo sitikukukhudzani mwanjira iriyonse. Mulungu wapereka ntchito yake ku Battle Creek kwa atumiki osankhidwa. Anawapatsa udindo woyang’anira ntchito yake. Angelo a Mulungu ali ndi udindo woyang’anira ntchitoyo; ndipo ngati chinachake chikulakwika, iye adzakonza atsogoleri a ntchitoyo ndipo chirichonse chidzayenda molingana ndi dongosolo lake, popanda kuloŵerera kwa ichi kapena munthu winayo.

Ndinaona kuti Mulungu akufuna kutembenuza maso ako kwa iwe, kuti akufunse maganizo ako. Mumadzinamiza nokha, kudzichepetsa kwanu kumakupatsa mphamvu. Mutha kuganiza kuti muli patsogolo pa moyo wanu wachikhulupiriro; koma zikafika pamasewero anu apadera, mumakhala maso nthawi yomweyo, amalingaliro amodzi komanso osagonja. Izi zikutsimikizira momveka bwino kuti simuli ofunitsitsa kuphunzira.

Ndinaona kuti mumaganiza molakwika kuti muyenera kuwononga thupi lanu ndikudzimana chakudya chopatsa thanzi. Izi zimapangitsa ena mu mpingo kukhulupirira kuti Mulungu alidi kumbali yanu, apo ayi simungakhale odziletsa komanso odzipereka. Koma ndinaona kuti palibe chimene chimakupangitsani kukhala oyera. Ngakhale amitundu amachita izi popanda kulandira mphotho iliyonse. Ndi mzimu wosweka ndi wolapa wokha pamaso pa Mulungu umene uli wamtengo wapatali pamaso pake. Malingaliro anu pa izi ndi olakwika. Mumapenyerera mpingo ndi kutchera khutu ku zinthu zazing’ono pamene muyenera kudera nkhawa za chipulumutso chanu. Mulungu sadakuike kukhala woyang'anira anthu Ake. Mukuganiza kuti mpingo wabwerera m’mbuyo chifukwa chakuti suona zinthu mmene inuyo mumachitira komanso chifukwa chakuti sumatsatira njira yokhwima imodzimodziyo. Komabe, mukulakwitsa pa ntchito yanu ndi ya ena. Ena apita kutali kwambiri ndi zakudya. Iwo amatsatira njira yokhwima yoteroyo ndipo amakhala moyo wosalira zambiri moti thanzi lawo layamba kufooka, matenda azika mizu m’dongosolo lawo, ndipo kachisi wa Mulungu wafowoketsedwa.

Ndinakumbutsidwa zimene tinakumana nazo ku Rochester, New York. Sitinadye chakudya chopatsa thanzi chokwanira kumeneko. Matendawa anatsala pang’ono kutitengera kumanda. Mulungu amapatsa ana ake okondedwa osati kugona kokha komanso chakudya choyenera kuti awalimbikitse. Zolinga zathu zinalidi zabwino. Tinkafuna kusunga ndalama kuti tizitha kuyendetsa nyuzipepala. Tinali osauka. Koma vuto linali la masepala. Amene anali ndi ndalama anali adyera ndi odzikonda. Akadachita gawo lawo, kukadakhala mpumulo kwa ife; koma popeza ena sadakwaniritse ntchito yawo, zidali zoipa kwa ife ndi zabwino kwa ena. Mulungu safuna kuti aliyense akhale wosunga zinthu mpaka kufooketsa kapena kuwononga kachisi wa Mulungu. Muli ntchito ndi zofunikira mu Mau ake kuti mpingo udzichepetse ndi kuononga moyo wake. Koma palibe chifukwa chodzisema mitanda ndi kupanga ntchito zodetsa thupi kuti munthu akhale wodzichepetsa. Zimenezo ndi zachilendo ku Mawu a Mulungu.

Nthawi yamavuto yayandikira. Pamenepo kufunikira kudzafuna kuti anthu a Mulungu adzikane okha ndi kudya zokwanira kuti apulumuke. Koma Mulungu adzatikonzekeretsa nthawi ino. M’nthaŵi yovuta ino chosoŵa chathu chidzakhala mwaŵi wa Mulungu wotipatsa mphamvu zake zolimbikitsa ndi kusunga anthu ake. Koma tsopano Mulungu akuyembekezera kuti tizichita zinthu zabwino ndi manja athu ndi kuteteza madalitsowo mosamala kuti tichite mbali yathu pochirikiza ntchito Yake yopititsa patsogolo choonadi. Iyi ndi ntchito ya onse amene sanaitanidwe mwapadera kuti atumikire m’mawu ndi chiphunzitso, kuthera nthawi yawo yonse kulalikira kwa ena njira ya moyo ndi chipulumutso.

Aliyense wogwira ntchito ndi manja ake amafunikira mphamvu zosungirako kuti agwire ntchitoyi. Komatu angakhale akutumikira m’mawu ndi m’chiphunzitso ayenera kukulitsa mphamvu yawo; chifukwa Satana ndi angelo ake oipa amamenyana nawo kuti awononge mphamvu zawo. Matupi awo ndi malingaliro amafunikira kupuma ku ntchito yotopetsa kaŵirikaŵiri monga momwe kungathekere, limodzinso ndi chakudya chopatsa thanzi, chopatsa mphamvu chimene chimawapatsa mphamvu. Chifukwa mphamvu zawo zonse zimafunikira. Ndinaona kuti sizilemekeza Mulungu m’njira iliyonse pamene mmodzi wa anthu ake adziika m’mavuto. Ngakhale kuti nthawi ya mavuto kwa anthu a Mulungu yayandikira, iye adzawakonzekeretsa kulimbana ndi nkhondo yoopsayi.

Ndaona kuti zimene mumakhulupirira pa nkhani ya nkhumba zilibe vuto ngati mutadzichitira nokha. Koma mukanaupanga kukhala mwala woyesera ndi kuchitapo kanthu. Ngati Mulungu akufuna kuti mpingo wake usiye kudya nkhumba, adzawalimbikitsa kutero. Kodi nchifukwa ninji ayenera kungoulula chifuniro chake kwa anthu amene alibe thayo la ntchito yake, osati kwa amene alidi otsogolera? Ngati mpingo usiya kudya nkhumba, Mulungu sadzaulula kwa anthu awiri kapena atatu okha. Adzadziwitsa mpingo wake za nkhaniyi.

Mulungu akutsogolera anthu kuti atuluke ku Iguputo, osati anthu owerengeka okha, ena akukhulupirira izi, wina akukhulupirira kuti, angelo a Mulungu ali pafupi kukwaniritsa ntchito yawo. Mngelo wachitatu atulutsa ndi kuyeretsa anthu oti apite naye kutsogolo. Koma ena amathamanga patsogolo pa angelo amene amatsogolera mpingo uwu; koma m’pofunika kuti abwerere m’mbuyo, mofatsa ndi modzichepetsa akuyenda panjira imene mngeloyo wakhazikitsa. Ndinaona kuti mngelo wa Mulungu sangatsogolere mpingo wake mofulumira kuposa mmene ukanachitira ndi kukwaniritsa choonadi chofunika chimene chinali kuphunzitsidwa. Koma mizimu ina yosakhazikika ingasinthe theka la ntchitoyo. Pamene mngelo akuwatsogolera, iwo amasangalala ndi chinachake chatsopano ndipo amafulumira popanda chitsogozo chaumulungu, kubweretsa chisokonezo ndi kusagwirizana pakati pa magulu. Salankhula kapena kuchita zinthu mogwirizana ndi zonsezo. Ndaona kuti nonse mukuyenera kufika pomwe mwalolera kutsogoleredwa osati kufuna kutsogoleredwa. Kupanda kutero Satana akadakulamulirani ndikukutsogolerani panjira yake kumene mungatsatire malangizo ake. Ena amaona kuti maganizo anu ndi umboni wa kudzichepetsa. Mwalakwitsa. Nonse mukugwira ntchito mudzanong'oneza bondo tsiku lina.

M'bale A, ndinu wowuma komanso wadyera mwachibadwa. Mungapereke chachikhumi cha timbewu ta timbewu tonunkhira ndi katsabola, koma kuiwala zinthu zofunika kwambiri. Mnyamatayo atabwera kwa Yesu n’kumufunsa zimene ayenera kuchita kuti akhale ndi moyo wosatha, Yesu anamuuza kuti asunge malamulo. Iye anafotokoza kuti anachitadi zimenezo. Yesu anati, “Koma mukusowa chinthu chimodzi. Gulitsa zomwe uli nazo ndikupatsa osauka, ndipo udzakhala ndi chuma kumwamba.” Zotsatira zake zinali zakuti mnyamatayo anachoka ali wachisoni, chifukwa anali ndi chuma chambiri. Ndaona kuti muli ndi maganizo olakwika. N’zoona kuti Mulungu amafuna kuti anthu ake asamachite zinthu monyanyira, koma inuyo mukanachita khama lanu mpaka kufika povuta. Ndikanakonda mukadawona nkhani yanu momwe ilili. Mulibe mzimu weniweni wa nsembe yokondweretsa Mulungu. Mumadzifananiza ndi ena. Ngati wina satsatira njira yokhwimitsa zinthu ngati inuyo, mumaona kuti palibe chimene mungamuchitire. Miyoyo yanu ifota chifukwa cha zolakwa zanu. Mzimu wotengeka umakuchititsani kukhala ndi moyo, umene umautenga kukhala mzimu wa Mulungu. Mwalakwitsa. Simungathe kupirira chiweruzo chomveka ndi chowawa. Mumakonda kumva umboni wosangalatsa. Koma wina akakudzudzulani, mumapsa mtima msanga. Malingaliro anu sali okonzeka kuphunzira. Apa ndi pamene muyenera kuchita... Izi ndi zotsatira ndi chikhalidwe cha zolakwa zanu, chifukwa mumapanga chiweruzo ndi malingaliro anu kukhala lamulo kwa ena ndikuzigwiritsa ntchito motsutsana ndi iwo omwe Mulungu wawayitana kumunda. Mwapyola malire.

Ndinaona kuti mukuganiza kuti izi kapena izo zaitanidwa kukagwira ntchito kumunda, ngakhale mulibe nzeru. Simungathe kuyang'ana mu mtima. Mukadamwa mozama kuchowonadi cha uthenga wa mngelo wachitatu, simukanaweruza mophweka amene aitanidwa ndi Mulungu ndi amene sali. Mfundo yakuti munthu akhoza kupemphera ndi kulankhula mokoma mtima si umboni wakuti Mulungu wamuitana. Aliyense ali ndi chikoka, ndipo icho chiyenera kuyankhulira Mulungu; koma funso loti izi kapena izo ziyenera kuthera nthawi yake kwathunthu ku chipulumutso cha miyoyo ndi lofunika kwambiri. Palibe wina koma Mulungu yekha amene angasankhe amene ayenera kuchita nawo ntchito yofunikayi. M’masiku a atumwi munali amuna abwino, amuna amene ankapemphera ndi mphamvu ndipo anafika pa mfundo; koma atumwi, amene anali ndi mphamvu pa mizimu yonyansa ndi yokhoza kuchiritsa odwala, mwa nzeru zawo zoyera sanayerekeze kusankha aliyense ku ntchito yopatulika ya kukhala cholankhulira cha Mulungu. Iwo ankayembekezera umboni wosatsutsika wakuti mzimu woyera ukugwira ntchito kudzera mwa iye. Ndinaona kuti Mulungu anapatsa atumiki ake osankhidwa kuti azisankha amene ali woyenera kugwira ntchito yopatulikayi. Pamodzi ndi mpingo ndi zizindikiro zoonekeratu za Mzimu Woyera, ayenera kusankha amene ayenera kupita ndi amene sangapite. Chigamulo chimenecho chikanasiyidwa kwa anthu ochepa apa ndi apo, chisokonezo ndi zododometsa zikanakhala zipatso kulikonse.

Mulungu wasonyeza mobwerezabwereza kuti sitiyenera kutsimikizira anthu kuti anawaitana mpaka titapeza umboni womveka bwino wa zimenezi. Ambuye sadzasiya udindo wa nkhosa zake kwa anthu osayenerera. Mulungu amawatcha okhawo a zokumana nazo zakuya, zoyesedwa ndi zotsimikiziridwa, iwo a chiweruzo cholondola, iwo amene angayerekeze kudzudzula tchimo mu mzimu wa chifatso, iwo amene amadziwa kudyetsa gulu la nkhosa. Mulungu amadziwa mtima ndipo amadziwa amene angamusankhe. M'bale ndi mlongo Haskell atha kusankha pankhaniyi komabe nkulakwa. Kuweruza kwanu ndi kopanda ungwiro ndipo sikungatengedwe ngati umboni pankhaniyi. Mwachoka mu mpingo. Ngati mupitiriza kuchita zimenezi, mudzatopa nazo. + Kenako Mulungu adzakusiyani kuti mupite m’njira yanu yowawa. Tsopano Mulungu akukuitanani kuti mukonze zinthu, kukayikira zolinga zanu, ndi kuyanjanitsidwa ndi anthu ake.
