Nguva pfupi yapfuura ndakava nekuchinjana kwemaimeri kunofambisa nemunhu anozviti Adventist (muparidzi!) Akanga aseka pachena Mafashamo. Nharo yake yaive yekuti "hapana mafashama modhi" yaigona kuvakwa uchishandisa pfungwa dzesainzi. Naizvozvo kwaisagona kuva nemafashamo.

Haasi oga. Ndiani anoziva kuti vaKristu vangani, zvichida mamiriyoni, havachatendi mumafashamo enyika yose! Chikonzero: Sayenzi (saiye anozviti tenzikadzi wechokwadi) anoti hapana humbowo hweizvi. kupera kwehurukuro.

Asi aka hakasi kekutanga vachenjeri venyika vakataura kuti Mafashamo akanga asingabviri. In Madzibaba nevaprofita Ellen White anotaura pamusoro pekuti pamberi peMafashamo "varume vanoremekedzwa - vakachenjera, vakangwara pfungwa" (p. 97) vakakakavadzana kuti mitemo yezvisikwa yakanga isingashanduki, isingachinji, uye yakavimbika. Nokudaro, hapana chinoshamisa chinogona kuitika. “Nyika yapamberi pemvura zhinji yakataura kuti mitemo yezvakasikwa yakanga isati yachinja kwemazana emakore. Mwaka yaidzokororwa yaizogara ichichinjana muhurongwa humwe chete. Kusvika parizvino mvura haisati yanaya; pasi raizodiridzwa nemhute kana dova. Nzizi dzingadai dzisina kubva pamubhedha wadzo, asi dzingadai dzakatakura mvura yadzo zvakanaka kusvika kugungwa. Mitemo isingashanduki yaidzivirira mvura kubva mukuputika kwayo.« (ibid., 96)

Hapana "muenzaniso wemafashama" waivapo mafashamo asati auya; nokudaro kwaisazova nemafashamo zvakare. Kubva mafashamo hapana "muenzaniso wemafashama" wakambovapo; nokudaro pakanga pasina mafashamo.

Zvaisagona kuva nyore!

Vachenjeri pamberi paMafashamo vakanga vasina kururama nokuti vaidavira kuti zvakanga zviri munguva yavo—chimiro chenyama chenyika panguva iyoyo—chaizoramba chiripo munguva yemberi. Vazivi vapashure paMafashamo vanokanganisa nemhaka yokuti vanofunga kuti chiripo nhasi—mamiriro ezvinhu omuviri aripo iye zvino—anoenderana nezvakanga zvakaita kare. Muzviitiko zvese izvi fungidziro yekuenderera yaive uye inoramba isiriyo.

Iko hakuna mafashama modhi nekuti yakadaro modhi haipo anogona. Sayenzi yaigona sei, yakavakirwa pafungidziro mbiri dzinokosha - kuenderera mberi (kwazvino kunoenderana nenguva yakapfuura) uye kurambwa kwesimba rinopfuura romuzvarirwo - iyi sayenzi ingaenzanisira sei chiitiko chinoshamisa chakavakirwa pane zvakaitika kare zvakasiyana nezvino?

Kutora nhoroondo yomuMagwaro yeMafashamo sezvazviri kudavira chiitiko chinoshamisa chemwero ine ngwavaira yechienzi munhau. Mafashamo akawanda omunzvimbomo akaparadza nzvimbo dzakati zvishoma, asi mukurwisana neMafashamo aya aiva madziva akaenzaniswa nenyanza. Chinhu chatingangokwanisa kuita uye chiitiko chatisingazivi chete chinogona kuita panyika izvo Magwaro anoti Mwari akaita muMafashamo.

“Mvura ikawanda kwazvo, ikawanda kwazvo pamusoro penyika, zvokuti areka yakafamba pamusoro pemvura. Mvura zhinji ikawanda kwazvo pamusoro penyika, makomo marefu ose akafukidzwa pasi pedenga rose; mvura yakakwira kumusoro namakubhiti gumi namashanu pashure pokunge makomo afukidzwa. Zvipenyu zvose zvaifamba panyika zvikafa, zvinoti, shiri, nezvipfuwo, nezvikara, nezvose zvaikambaira panyika, navanhu vose; uye chose chine kufema kwemweya weupenyu pakaoma pasi zvikafa. Akaparadza zvose zvakanga zviri pamusoro penyika, kubva kuvanhu kusvikira kuzvipfuwo, nezvinokambaira, neshiri dzedenga, zvose zvakaparadzwa panyika; Noa oga ndiye akasara nezvaiva naye muareka.”—Genesisi 15:1-7,18.

Hapana chinhu munhoroondo yevanhu kana ruzivo rwakambosvika pedyo nekuenderana nechiitiko ichi. Mafungiro edu akanakisa, kunyangwe esainzi, ndeaya chete: fungidziro. Vezvechitendero vanoona muMafashamo, kutonga kwaMwari pasi pano, kuparadzwa kwechisiko chekare, kudzokerazve kwenyika muchimiro chayo chapakuvamba. wow wow wow (»marara uye asina chinhu«) kubva muna Genesi 1:1,2, pamberi peimwe, chimiro chakashanduka zvikuru chehupenyu chakamuka.

Ipapoka, masayendisiti anoshanda pamifungo miviri inokosha—ontological naturalism (iyo inoramba kuvapo kwechinhu chipi nechipi chinopfuura simba romuzvarirwo) uye fanano pakati pekare neramangwana—kunzwisisa zvakarurama chiitiko chisiri chomuzvarirwo chakaitika munguva yakapfuura chakasiyana zvikuru nokuvapo?

Hazvisi kushanda.

Naizvozvo hazvishamisi kuti masayendisiti akawanda havatendi mafashamo enyika yose. Nekuda kwefungidziro dzavo dzekutanga, havana imwe sarudzo. Zvisinei, zvinoshamisa ndezvokuti vaKristu vakawanda havadaviri Mafashamo nemhaka yesayenzi iyi, kunyange zvazvo Magwaro Matsvene achiataura zvine musoro.

Kune rumwe rutivi, kunyange izvi hazvishamisi. Ellen White akanyora nezvevamwe varambi vapamberi pemvura zhinji kuti: ‘Havasati vari vanhu vose vechizvarwa ichocho vainamata zvidhori mupfungwa chaiyoiyo yeshoko racho. Vazhinji vakanzi vanonamata vanamati. Vaiti zvidhori zvavo zvaimiririra humwari. Munhu anogona kunzwisisa zviri nani huMwari kuburikidza navo. Vanhu ava ndivo vaive vapikisi vakuru vekuparidza kwaNowa.”Madzibaba nevaprofita, 95-96)

Ava vaizviti vatendi vainyanya kupikisa nyaya yaNoa. Saizvozvovo, vanozviti maKristu (kusanganisira maAdventist) vari pakati pevashori vanonyanya kutaura nezvenyaya imwe cheteyo. Vaizviti vateveri vaMwari mafashamo asati aramba kuti akanga achiuya; vanozviti vateveri vaMwari pashure pemafashamo vanoramba kuti akauya.

Zvinoshamisa!
