Zipembedzo Zimasiyana ndi Mboni za Yehova

Muzokambirana zambiri, pomwe gawo la ziphunzitso za Mboni za Yehova (JWs) limakhala losavomerezeka malinga ndi zomwe Baibulo limanena, kuyankha kwa ma JW ambiri ndikuti, "Inde, koma tili ndi ziphunzitso zoyambirira molondola". Ndinayamba kufunsa a Mboni ambiri kuti ziphunzitso zoyambirira ndi ziti? Kenako, ndinayankha funso kuti: “Ziphunzitso zoyambirira ndi ziti lapadera kwa Mboni za Yehova? ” Mayankho a funsoli ndiye cholinga cha nkhaniyi. Tidzazindikira ziphunzitsozo lapadera kupita ku ma JWs komanso m'nkhani zamtsogolo kuziwunika mozama kwambiri. Malo ofunikira ndi awa:

1. Mulungu, dzina lake, cholinga ndi chilengedwe?
2. Yesu Kristu ndi udindo wake pokwaniritsa cholinga cha Mulungu?
3. Chiphunzitso cha Nsembe ya Dipo.
4. Baibulo siliphunzitsa kuti mzimu sufa.
5. Baibo siiphunzitsa kuzunzidwa kwamuyaya kumoto.
6. Bayibulo ndi mawu ochokera kwa Mulungu, owuziridwa ndi Mulungu.
7. Ufumu ndiye chiyembekezo chokha chaanthu ndipo unakhazikitsidwa ku 1914 kumwamba, ndipo tikukhala m'masiku omaliza.
8. Padzakhala anthu a 144,000 osankhidwa kuchokera padziko lapansi kuti adzalamulire ndi Yesu kuchokera kumwamba (Chivumbulutso 14: 1-4), ndipo anthu ena onse adzakhala m'paradaiso padziko lapansi.
9. Mulungu ali ndi bungwe limodzi lokha komanso Bungwe Lolamulira (GB), lomwe limakwaniritsa udindo wa “Kapolo Wokhulupirika ndi Wanzeru” m'fanizo la Mateyo 24: 45-51, akuwongoleredwa ndi Yesu posankha zochita. Ziphunzitso zonse zimatha kumvetsetsa kudzera mu 'njira iyi'.
10. Padzakhala ntchito yolalikira padziko lonse lapansi yolunjika pa Ufumu Waumesiya (Mateyo 24: 14) yokhazikitsidwa kuyambira 1914, yopulumutsa anthu ku nkhondo yomwe ikubwera ya Armagedo. Ntchito yayikuluyi imatheka kudzera muutumiki khomo ndi khomo (Machitidwe 20: 20).

Izi pamwambazi ndizo zazikulu zomwe ndakumana nazo pazokambirana zosiyanasiyana kwakanthawi. Si mndandanda wotopetsa.

Mbiri Yakale

Ma JWs anatuluka mgulu la Ophunzira Baibulo lomwe linayambitsidwa ndi Charles Taze Russell ndi ena ochepa mu ma 1870. Russell ndi abwenzi ake adatengera okhulupirira a "Age to kubwera", a Second Adventist ochokera kwa William Miller, ma Presbyterian, ma Corporateist, Abale ndi magulu ena ambiri. Pofuna kufalitsa uthenga womwe ophunzira awa adazindikira kuchokera pakuphunzira kwawo malembo, Russell adapanga bungwe lalamulo kuti athe kugawira mabuku. Pambuyo pake adadzadziwika kuti Watchtower Bible and Tract Society (WTBTS). Russell adakhala Purezidenti woyamba wa Sosaite iyi.[I]

Russell atamwalira mu Okutobala, 1916, a Joseph Franklin Rutherford (Woweruza Rutherford) adakhala Purezidenti wachiwiri. Izi zidapangitsa zaka 20 kusinthika kwa ziphunzitso ndi kulimbana kwa mphamvu, zomwe zidachititsa kuti oposa 75% a ophunzira Bayibulo omwe adalumikizana ndi Russell asiya gulu, omwe akuti anthu a 45,000.

Mu 1931, Rutherford adapanga dzina latsopano kwa omwe adatsalira naye: Mboni za Yehova. Kuchokera mu 1926 mpaka 1938, ziphunzitso zambiri kuyambira nthawi ya Russell zinasiyidwa kapena kukonzedwanso mopitirira kuzindikira, ndipo ziphunzitso zatsopano zinawonjezeredwa. Pakadali pano, gulu la Ophunzira Baibulo limayenda ngati magulu osagwirizana komwe magulu osiyanasiyana adavomereza, koma chiphunzitso cha "Dipo la Onse" chinali mfundo imodzi yomwe panali mgwirizano wonse. Pali magulu ambiri omwe afalikira padziko lonse lapansi, ndipo kuchuluka kwa okhulupirira kumakhala kovuta kupeza, popeza gululi silimayang'ana kapena kukhala ndi chidwi ndi ziwerengero za okhulupirira.

Kukula kwa Zipembedzo

Gawo loyambirira lilingalire ndi: Kodi a Charles Taze Russell adayambitsa ziphunzitso zatsopano kuchokera pakuphunzira kwake Baibulo?

Izi zitha kuyankhidwa momveka bwino ndi bukuli Mboni za Yehova — Zikulengeza za Ufumu wa Mulungu[Ii] mu chaputala 5, masamba 45-49 pomwe likufotokoza momveka bwino kuti anthu osiyanasiyana adalimbikitsa ndikuphunzitsa Russell.

“Russell anafotokoza poyera za thandizo la kuphunzira Baibulo lomwe analandira kuchokera kwa ena. Sikuti adangovomereza kuti ali ndi ngongole ndi Adventist Wachiwiri a Jonas Wendell komanso adalankhula mwachikondi za anthu ena awiri omwe adamuthandiza kuphunzira Baibulo. Russell adati za amuna awiriwa: 'Kuphunzira Mawu a Mulungu ndi abale okondedwawa kudatsogolera, pang'onopang'ono, kupita kumalo odyetserako ziweto.' Wina, George W. Stetson, anali wophunzira Baibulo mwakhama komanso m'busa wa Advent Christian Church ku Edinboro, Pennsylvania. ”

“Wina, George Storrs, anali wofalitsa magazini ya Bible Examiner, ku Brooklyn, New York. Storrs, yemwe adabadwa pa Disembala 13, 1796, poyambirira adalimbikitsidwa kuti aunike zomwe Baibulo limanena za momwe akufa alili powerenga china chofalitsidwa (ngakhale kuti sichinali kutchulidwa) ndi wophunzira Baibulo mosamala, a Henry Grew , waku Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Storrs anakhala wochirikiza wachangu wa chimene chimatchedwa kusakhoza kufa ndi moyo —chiphunzitso chakuti mzimu umafa ndipo kuti moyo wosakhoza kufa ndi mphatso yomwe Akristu okhulupirika ayenera kulandira. Anaganiziranso kuti popeza oipa alibe moyo wosafa, palibe kuzunzika kwamuyaya. Storrs ankayenda maulendo ataliatali, akumaphunzitsa nkhani yoti palibe moyo wosafa kwa anthu oipa. Mwa zina zomwe adalemba ndi Sermons Six, zomwe pamapeto pake zidafalitsidwa 200,000. Mosakayikira, malingaliro olimba ofotokoza za Storrs ofotokoza za kufa kwa mzimu komanso chotetezera ndi kubwezeretsa (kubwezeretsa zomwe zidatayika chifukwa cha tchimo la Adamu; Machitidwe 3:21) zidamuthandiza kwambiri Charles T wachinyamata . Russell. ”

Kenako pansi pamutuwu, “Osati Chatsopano, Osatinso Athu, Koma Monga Ambuye” (sic), ipitiliza kunena:

“CT Russell anagwiritsira ntchito Watch Tower ndi zofalitsa zina kuchirikiza chowonadi cha Baibulo ndi kutsutsa ziphunzitso zonyenga zachipembedzo ndi nthanthi zaumunthu zotsutsana ndi Baibulo. Sananene kuti adapeza chowonadi chatsopano”(Boldface yawonjezera.)

Kenako imagwira mawu a Russell:

“Tidapeza kuti kwa zaka mazana ambiri magulu ndi magulu osiyanasiyana adagawanitsa ziphunzitso za m'Baibulo pakati pawo, kuziphatikiza ndi malingaliro kapena zolakwika za anthu. . . Tidapeza chiphunzitso chofunikira chakuyesedwa olungama ndi chikhulupiriro osati mwa ntchito chinafotokozedwa momveka bwino ndi Luther ndipo posachedwapa ndi akhristu ambiri; kuti chilungamo chaumulungu ndi mphamvu ndi nzeru zidatetezedwa mosazindikirika bwino ndi Apresbateria; kuti Amethodisti adayamika ndikutamanda chikondi ndi chifundo cha Mulungu; kuti Adventist anali ndi chiphunzitso chamtengo wapatali chobwera kwa Ambuye; kuti Abaptisti pakati pazinthu zina anali ndi chiphunzitso cha ubatizo mophiphiritsira molondola, ngakhale iwo anali atayiwaliratu za ubatizo weniweni; kuti ena a Universalists akhala akuganiza mosalingalira za 'kubweza.' Chifukwa chake, pafupifupi zipembedzo zonse zidapereka umboni kuti omwe adayambitsa adali kufunafuna chowonadi: koma mwachidziwikire Mdani wamkuluyo adamenya nawo nkhondo ndipo adagawa molakwika Mawu a Mulungu omwe sakanatha kuwawononga kotheratu. ”

Chaputalachi chimapereka mawu a Russell pa chiphunzitso cha zochitika zakale za Baibulo.

“Ntchito yathu. . . takhala tikuphatikiza zidutswa za choonadi zomwe zidabalalika ndikuzipereka kwa anthu a Ambuye - osati zatsopano, osati zathu, koma za Ambuye. . . . Tiyeneranso kutaya chiyamikiro chilichonse ngakhale poti tapeza ndikumanganso zida za chowonadi.…. Ntchito yomwe Ambuye adakondwera kugwiritsa ntchito maluso athu odzichepetsa yakhala ntchito yochepa kwambiri kuposa yomanganso, kukonza, kuyanjanitsa. ” (Boldface yawonjezera.)

Ndime ina yomwe ikufotokoza mwachidule zomwe Russell adachita pantchito yake idati: "Chifukwa chake, Russell anali wozindikira pa zomwe wakwanitsa. Komabe, "zidutswa zomwazikana za chowonadi" zomwe adabweretsa ndikupereka kwa anthu a Ambuye zidakhala zopanda ziphunzitso zosalemekeza Mulungu za Utatu komanso kusafa kwa mzimu, zomwe zidakhazikika m'matchalitchi achikhristu chifukwa cha mpatuko waukulu. Monga panalibe aliyense panthawiyo, a Russell ndi amzake adalengeza padziko lonse tanthauzo la kubweranso kwa Ambuye ndi cholinga cha Mulungu ndi zomwe zimakhudza. ”

Kuchokera pamwambapa, zikuwonekeratu kuti Russell analibe chiphunzitso chatsopano kuchokera m'Baibulo koma anasonkhanitsa zomveka zosiyanasiyana zomwe zimagwirizana ndipo nthawi zambiri zimasiyana ndi chiphunzitso chovomerezeka cha Chikristu. Chiphunzitso chachikulu cha Russell chinali "chiwombolo cha onse". Kudzera mu chiphunzitso ichi adatha kuwonetsa kuti Baibulo siliphunzitsa kuti munthu ali ndi mzimu womwe suufa, lingaliro la kuzunzika kwamuyaya kumoto sililozedwa, Mulungu siutatu ndipo Yesu ndiye Mwana wobadwa yekha wa Mulungu, ndipo chipulumutso sichitha kupatula kudzera mwa iye, ndikuti mu M'badwo wa Uthenga, Khristu akusankha "Mkwatibwi" yemwe adzalamulira naye mu ulamuliro wazaka chikwi.

Kuphatikiza apo, Russell adakhulupirira kuti adakwanitsa kugwirizanitsa lingaliro la Calvinistic loti adalipo, komanso malingaliro aku Arminian pa chipulumutso chaponseponse. Anafotokoza za nsembe ya dipo ya Yesu, monga kuwombolera anthu onse kuukapolo wauchimo ndi imfa. (Mateyo 20: 28) Izi sizimatanthawuza kupulumutsidwa kwa onse, koma mwayi kwa "mayesero amoyo wonse". Russell adawona kuti pali 'gulu' lomwe lidakonzedweratu kukhala "Mkwatibwi wa Khristu" yemwe adzalamulire padziko lapansi. Omwe anali mgululi sanakonzedweretu koma adzakumana ndi "mayesero amoyo wonse" nthawi ya Uthenga Wabwino. Anthu ena onse 'adzayesedwa kwa moyo wonse' muulamuliro wa zaka chikwi.

Russell adapanga tchati chotchedwa Dongosolo Laumulungu la Mibadwo, ndipo cholinga chake ndi kugwirizanitsa ziphunzitso za Baibulo. M'mawu awa, adaphatikiza ziphunzitso zosiyanasiyana za m'Baibulo, kuphatikiza nthawi yomwe Nelson Barbour adalemba potengera ntchito ya William Miller, komanso zinthu zina za Pyramidology.[III] Zonsezi ndi maziko a mavoliyumu ake asanu ndi imodzi otchedwa Kusanthula m'Malemba.

Zipembedzo Zatsopano

Mu 1917, Rutherford adasankhidwa kukhala Purezidenti wa WTBTS mwanjira yomwe idadzetsa mpungwepungwe wambiri. Panayambanso mikangano ina pomwe Rutherford adatulutsa Chinsinsi lomwe limatanthawuza kukhala ntchito yakumapeto kwa Russell ndi Voliyumu ya Saba ya Kusanthula m'Malemba. Buku ili lidasokera kwambiri pantchito ya Russell yokhudza kumvetsetsa kwaulosi ndipo lidayambitsa kukangana kwakukulu. Mu 1918, Rutherford adatulutsa buku lotchedwa Anthu Mamiliyoni Ambiri Tsopano Ali Ndi Moyo Sadzafa Ili lidakhazikitsa tsiku lamapeto kuti libwere pofika Okutobala 1925. Pambuyo pa kulephera kwa tsikuli, Rutherford adayambitsa mndandanda wazosintha zaumulungu. Izi zidaphatikizanso kutanthauzira fanizo la Kapolo Wokhulupirika ndi Wanzeru kutanthauza Akhristu onse odzozedwa padziko lapansi kuyambira 1927 kupita mtsogolo.[Iv] Kumvetsetsa kumeneku kunasinthanso zina m'tsogolo. Zatsopano, "mboni za Yehova" (panthawiyo mboni sizinakhale zikuluzikulu) zidasankhidwa ku 1931 kuti izindikiritse Ophunzira Baibulo omwe amagwirizana ndi WTBTS. Mu 1935, Rutherford adayambitsa chiyembekezo cha "magawo awiri". Izi zimangophunzitsa 144,000 okha kuti akhale “Mkwatibwi wa Khristu” ndikulamulira naye kuchokera kumwamba, ndikuti kuchokera ku 1935 kusonkhanitsa kunali kwa gulu la "nkhosa zina" la John 10: 16, omwe amawonedwa m'masomphenyawo ngati "Great Makamu "Mu Chivumbulutso 7: 9-15.

Kuzungulira 1930, Rutherford adasintha tsiku lomwe linakhazikitsidwa 1874 kukhala 1914 ya Khristu kuyambira yake Parousia (kukhalapo). Ananenanso kuti Ufumu Waumesiya unali utayamba kulamulira ku 1914. Mu 1935, Rutherford adaganiza kuti kuyitanidwa kwa "Mkwatibwi wa Khristu" kwatsirizika ndipo cholinga chautumiki chinali kusonkhanaKhwimbi Lalikulu kapena Nkhosa Zina 'za Chivumbulutso 7: 9-15.

Izi zidapanga lingaliro loti ntchito yolekanitsa "nkhosa ndi mbuzi" idachitika kuyambira 1935. (Mat. 25: 31-46) Kulekanitsa uku kunachitika chifukwa cha momwe anthu ena anamvera uthenga woti Ufumu Waumesiya womwe wayamba kulamulira kumwamba chiyambire 1914 ndikuti malo okha omwe angatetezedwe anali mkati mwa "Gulu la Yehova" tsiku lalikulu la Armagedo litafika. Palibe kufotokoza komwe kwasinthidwa masiku. Uthengawu udayenera kulalikidwa ndi ma JW onse ndipo malembedwe opezeka pa Machitidwe 20: 20 ndiye maziko oti ntchitoyi inayenera kulalikidwa khomo ndi khomo.

Chilichonse mwaziphunzitso izi ndizapadera ndipo zinabwera kudzera mukutanthauzira kwa malemba ndi Rutherford. Panthawiyo, adatinso kuti kuyambira pomwe Khristu adabweranso mu 1914, mzimu woyera sunagwire ntchito koma Khristu mwiniyo amalumikizana ndi WTBTS.[V] Sanalongosolepo kuti izi zimafotokozeredwa kwa ndani, koma kuti zinali za 'Society'. Popeza anali ndi ulamulirowu wonse ngati Purezidenti, titha kunena kuti mayendedwe ake anali Purezidenti.

Kuphatikiza apo, Rutherford anafalitsa chiphunzitso chakuti Mulungu ali ndi 'Gulu'.[vi] Izi zinali zosiyana kwambiri ndi malingaliro a Russell.[vii]

Ziphunzitso Zapadera za JWs

Zonsezi zimatibweretsanso ku funso la ziphunzitso zomwe ndizopadera kwa ma JW. Monga taonera, ziphunzitso kuyambira nthawi ya Russell sizatsopano kapena sizipembedzo chilichonse. Russell akufotokozeranso kuti anasonkhanitsa mbali zosiyanasiyana za chowonadi ndi kuzilinganiza mwanjira inayake yomwe imathandizira anthu kumvetsetsa bwino. Chifukwa chake, palibe chiphunzitso chilichonse kuyambira nthawi imeneyo chitha kuwonedwa ngati chosiyana ndi ma JW.

Ziphunzitso kuyambira nthawi ya Rutherford monga Purezidenti, zidasinthanso ndikusintha ziphunzitso zakale kuyambira nthawi ya Russell. Ziphunzitsozi ndizapadera ndi ma JWs ndipo sizipezeka kwina kulikonse. Kutengera izi, malingaliro khumi omwe atchulidwa koyambirira amatha kusanthula.

Mfundo 6 zoyambirira zomwe zalembedwa sizosiyana ndi ma JW okha. Monga tafotokozera m'mabuku a WTBTS, akunena momveka bwino kuti Russell sanapange chilichonse chatsopano. Baibulo siliphunzitsa Utatu, Kusakhoza Kufa kwa Mzimu, Moto wa Helo ndi kuzunzika kwamuyaya, koma kukana ziphunzitsozi si Mboni za Yehova zokha.

Malangizo omaliza a 4 omwe atchulidwa ndi a Mboni za Yehova. Ziphunzitso zinayi izi zitha kugawidwa m'mitu itatu:

1. Makalasi Awiri A Chipulumutso

Kupulumutsidwa kwamitundu iwiri kuli mayitanidwe akumwamba a 144,000 ndi chiyembekezo cha padziko lapansi kwa otsalawo, gulu Lankhosa Lina. Oyamba ali ana a Mulungu omwe adzalamulira ndi Kristu ndipo sadzalamulidwa ku imfa yachiwiri. Omwe atha kukhala paubwenzi ndi Mulungu ndipo adzakhala maziko a dziko lapansi latsopano. Amapitilizabe kutengera kufa kwachiwiri, ndipo ayenera kudikirira mpaka mayeso omaliza atatha zaka chikwi kuti apulumutsidwe.

2. Ntchito Yolalikira

Uwu ndiye chidwi chokhachokha cha ma JW. Izi zimawoneka kudzera mu ntchito yolalikira. Ntchitoyi ili ndi zinthu ziwiri, njira yolalikirira ndi uthengawu ukulalikidwa.

Njira yolalikirira makamaka ndi khomo ndi khomo[viii] ndipo uthenga ndikuti Ufumu Waumesiya wakhala ukulamulira kuchokera kumwamba kuyambira 1914, ndipo Nkhondo ya Armagedo yayandikira. Onse omwe ali kumbali yolakwika ya nkhondoyi adzawonongedwa kwamuyaya ndipo dziko lapansi lidzalowetsedwa.

3. Mulungu Adasankha Bungwe Lolamulira (Kapolo Wokhulupirika ndi Wanzeru) mu 1919.

Chiphunzitsochi chimati Yesu atakhala pampando wachifumu ku 1914, adayendera mipingo padziko lapansi ku 1918 ndipo adasankha Kapolo Wokhulupirika ndi Wanzeru ku 1919. Kapoloyu ndi ulamuliro wapakati, ndipo mamembala ake amadziona ngati "osunga chiphunzitso" a Mboni za Yehova.[ix] Gulu ili likuti mu nthawi ya Atumwi, panali bungwe lolamulira pakati pa Yerusalemu lomwe limalamula ziphunzitso ndi malamulo ampingo wachikhristu.

Ziphunzitso izi zitha kuwonedwa ngati zapadera ndi ma JW. Ndiwofunikira kwambiri pakulamula ndikulamula miyoyo ya okhulupilika. Kuti tithane ndi zomwe tafotokoza kumayambiriro kuja - "Inde, koma tili ndi ziphunzitso zoyambilira", tikuyenera kudziwa zomwe zili m'Baibulo komanso mabuku a WTBTS kuti tisonyeze anthu ena ngati ziphunzitsozo zili zogwirizana ndi Baibulo.

Gawo Lotsatira

Izi zikutanthauza kuti tiyenera kupenda ndikuwunikanso mitu yotsatirayi mozama kwambiri mndandanda wazinthu. Ndakhala ndikuchita ndi chiphunzitso cha Kodi “Khamu Lalikulu la Nkhosa Zina” limayimira pati, kumwamba kapena padziko lapansi? The Ufumu Waumesiya ukukhazikitsidwa ku 1914 yafotokozedwanso m'magazini ndi makanema osiyanasiyana. Chifukwa chake, kuwunikanso magawo atatu enieni:

• Kodi njira yolalikirira ndi iti? Kodi malembedwe a Machitidwe 20: 20 amatanthauza khomo ndi khomo? Kodi tingaphunzire chiyani pa ntchito yolalikira kuchokera m'buku la Bayibulo, Machitidwe a Atumwi?
• Kodi uthenga wabwino uyenera kulalikidwa ndi chiyani? Kodi tingaphunzire chiyani Machitidwe a Atumwi ndi Makalata a Chipangano Chatsopano?
• Kodi Chikristu chinali ndi ulamuliro wapakati kapena bungwe lolamulira m'zaka za zana loyamba? Kodi Baibo imaphunzitsanji? Kodi pali umboni wanji waulamuliro wapakati pa Chikristu choyambirira? Tionanso zolemba zoyambirira za Abambo a Atumwi, a The Didache komanso zomwe olemba mbiri achikhristu akale amakamba pankhaniyi?

Zolemba izi zilembedwa kuti zisalimbikitse mikangano kapena kuwononga chikhulupiriro cha aliyense (2 Timoteo 2: 23-26), koma kupereka umboni wamalemba kwa anthu omwe akufuna kusinkhasinkha ndi kulingalira. Izi zimapereka mwayi kwa iwo kuti akhale ana a Mulungu ndikukhala okhazikika pa Khristu m'miyoyo yawo.
