Itorero na Leta ku Rugamba

Itorero na Leta ku Rugamba
mugisha w’ubumwe bushyitse, ukwizera n’urukundo byariho mu gihe cy’intumwa, igihe
abizera bari “bahuje umutima” kandi “bakavuga ijambo ry’Imana bashize amanga,” bityo
“uko bukeye Umwami Imana ikabongerera abakizwa.” 501
Iyaba abavuga ko ari ubwoko bw’Imana bakiraga umucyo nk’uko ubarasira uturutse mu
ijambo ry’Imana, bagera kuri bwa bumwe Kristo yabasabiye ari nabwo intumwa Pawulo yise,
“ubumwe bw’Umwuka mu murunga w’amahoro.” Pawulo aravuga ati: “Hariho umubiri
umwe n’Umwuka umwe, nk’uko mwahamagariwe icyiringiro kimwe cyo guhamagarwa
kwanyu. Hariho Umwami umwe no kwizera kumwe n’umubatizo umwe.” 502
Ibyo ni byo byiza byuzuye umugisha abantu bemeye ubutumwa bwo kugaruka kwa Kristo
babonye. Bakomokaga mu matorero atandukanye ariko ibyabatandukanyaga bishingiye kuri
ayo matorero byarasenywe, imyizerere yabashyamiranyaga yose ihinduka ubusa; ibyiringiro
bidashingiye kuri Bibiliya byavugaga ko Kristo agiye kuza akamara imyaka igihumbi ari
umwami w’isi birarekwa; ibitekerezo bitari iby’ukuri ku byerekeye kugaruka k’Umukiza
birakosorwa; ubwibone no kwisanisha n’ab’isi birashira; amakosa arakosorwa; imitima
ihurizwa hamwe, kandi urukundo n’ibyishimo biraganza rwose. Niba iyi nyigisho yarakoze
ityo kuri bake bayakiriye, n’ubundi iba yarakoze ibimeze bityo ku bantu iyo baba
barayakiriye.
Ariko muri rusange amatorero ntiyemeye iyo miburo. Abayobozi bayo ari bo bari
nk’“abarinzi b’inzu ya Isirayeli,” bagombye kuba aba mbere mu gusobanukirwa
n’ibimenyetso byo kugaruka kwa Yesu, bari barananiwe kwiga ukuri bagukuye mu bihamya
byatanzwe n’abahanuzi cyangwa ku bimenyetso by’ibihe. Uko kwiringira iby’isi no
kubirangamira byuzuraga imitima yabo, gukunda Imana no kwizera ijambo ryayo
byagendaga bikendera; kandi ubwo inyigisho zivuga ibyo kugaruka kwa Kristo zigishwaga,
byakanguye urwikekwe rwabo no kwinangira. Impamvu bitwaje yo kurwanya ubwo butumwa
yari uko umugabane munini bwigishwaga n’abakorerabushake. Nk’uko aba kera babigenje,
ubuhamya bwumvikana bw’ijambo ry’Imana babwibazagaho batya bati: “Mbese hari
n’umwe mu bayobozi cyangwa mu Bafarisayo wabyemeye?” Abantu benshi babonye ko
kurwanya ingingo zavugwaga zishingiye ku bihe by’ubuhanuzi bitoroshye, barwanyije kwiga
ubuhanuzi, bakigisha ko ibitabo by’ubuhanuzi byafatanishijwe ikimenyetso kandi ko
bidashobora gusobanuka. Abantu benshi biringiraga abapasitoro babo mu buryo
bw’ubuhumyi, banze kumva umuburo; naho abandi nubwo bemeraga ukuri, ntibatinyukaga
kukuvuga “batinya gucibwa mu rusengero.” Ubutumwa Imana yohereje ngo bugerageze
itorero kandi buriboneze, bwerekanye ku mugaragaro ukuntu abantu batagira ingano
barunduriye imitima yabo ku by’isi mu mwanya wa Kristo. Imigozi yari ibahambiriye ku isi
yari ikomeye cyane kuruta uko bari barangamiye ijuru. Bahisemo kumva ijwi ry’ubwenge
bw’isi maze batera umugongo ubutumwa bw’ukuri bukora ku mutima.
Mu kwanga umuburo wa marayika wa mbere, banze uburyo bwo kubazahura Imana yari
yaratanze. Basuzuguye intumwa y’inyampuhwe yagombaga kuba yarakuyeho ibibi
