Utatu Mtakatifu

Utatu Mtakatifu. Lusega , Abel Pr.

NI MUHIMU KUJIFUNZA. “ Na uzima wa milele ndio huu , Wakujue wewe , Mungu wa pekee wa kweli , na Yesu Kristo uliyemtuma .” Yohana 17:3.

Utangulizi. Baadhi ya Waasisi wa kanisa hawakukubali fundisho la Utatu . Mfano James White, J.N. Andrews, A.C. Bourdeau , D.T. Bourdeau , R.F. Cottrell, A.T. Jones, W.W. Prescott, J.H. Waggoner.

Sababu. Hawakuwa wameona Ushahidi wa kibiblia wa nafsi tatu katika Mungu Mmoja . Walifikiri kuwa fundisho la utatu linawafanya baba na Mwana kuwa sawa ..

3. Waliamini kuwa hiyo itamaanisha kuna miungu mitatu . Mfano J.N. Loughborough: aliwahi kusema “If Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are each God, it would be three Gods” (1861)..

4. Waliamini fundisho la Utatu Mtakatifu litahafifisha thamani ya upatanisho . Yesu asingeweza kufa kama alikuwa Mungu.

5. Walielewa kua Mwana ana mwanzo . “ Mwanzo wa uumbaji wa Mungu ” ( Ufu 3:14) 6. Mionekano mbalimbali inayotumika kumwakilisha Roho Mtakatifu inaonesha kuwa hawezi kuwa nafsi ..

Hoja hizi zilionekana na mshiko miongoni mwa watu wasiokubaliana na dhana ya utatu mtakatifu . Lakini wakati mtizamo huo ulipochunguzwa vizuri , ilionekana hazina uzito wa kutosha kufunika dhana ya utatu wa Mungu mmoja ..

USHAHIDI WA KIMAANDIKO 1. Isaya 9:6. “ Maana kwa ajili yetu mtoto amezaliwa , Tumepewa mtoto mwanamume ; Na uweza wa kifalme utakuwa begani mwake ; Naye ataitwa jina lake, Mshauri wa ajabu , Mungu mwenye nguvu , Baba wa milele , Mfalme wa amani .”.

Yohana 1:1. “ Hapo mwanzo kulikuwako Neno , naye Neno alikuwako kwa Mungu , naye Neno alikuwa Mungu ”.

Yohana 20:21. “ Tomaso akajibu, akamwambia, Bwana wangu na Mungu wangu ! ” Yesu hakumsahihisha Tomaso kuwa yeye ni Mwana tu ila siyo Mungu ,.

Tito 2:13. “ tukilitazamia tumaini lenye baraka na mafunuo ya utukufu wa Kristo Yesu , Mungu mkuu na Mwokozi wetu ;”.

1 Yohana 5:20. “ Nasi twajua kwamba Mwana wa Mungu amekwisha kuja , naye ametupa akili kwamba tumjue yeye aliye wa kweli , nasi tumo ndani yake yeye aliye wa kweli , yaani , ndani ya Mwana wake Yesu Kristo . Huyu ndiye Mungu wa kweli , na uzima wa milele ”.

Waebrania 1:6,8. 6. Hata tena , amletapo mzaliwa wa kwanza ulimwenguni , asema , Na wamsujudu malaika wote wa Mungu . 8. Lakini kwa habari za Mwana asema , Kiti chako cha enzi,Mungu,ni cha milele na milele ; Na fimbo ya ufalme wako ni fimbo ya adili ..
