Apôtre Dr. Paul Gitwaza Intumwa ya Satani,ibyo avuga,byaba bihuye n’ijambo ry’Imana ryanditse muri bibiliya? Yigishije inyigisho ikangurira abakristo “ Gukuraho ibuye ”Umuyobozi w’ikirenga wa Zion Temple Celebration Centre ku isi, Apôtre Dr. Paul Gitwaza mu nyigisho ze zibanda ku bintu abakristo bagomba gukora, yongeye kugaruka ku kindi kintu tugomba kuvanaho kugira ngo Yesu akorere muri twebwe. Icyo yatangaje ko ari “ Ukuvanaho ibuye.”
Intumwa y’Imana yigishije iyi nyigisho yifashishije ijambo ry’Imana riri mu Butumwa Bwiza bwa Yohana igice cya 11 rivuga inkuru y’uko Yesu yazuye Lazaro.Nyuma yo gusoma iyi nkuru yatangiye asobanura uburyo Lazaro atari yarapfuye ahubwo ari uko Yesu yashakaga kubigisha ko hari ibuye bari bakeneye gukuraho.
Yagize ati : ” Iyi nkuru murayizi. Ni inkuru ya Marita na Mariya na Lazaro na Yesu. Yesu yari aje mu nzu y’abavandimwe, y’inshuti ze. Ariko noneho ntiyari aje gusangira na bo. Ntiyari aje kuruhukana na bo. Yari aje kubakemurira ikibazo. Ko bamutumyeho bamubwira ngo wa mucuti wawe ukunda ararwaye, Yesu asa n’utabyitayeho yikomereza imirimo ye. Ntibivuga ko Yesu atakundaga Lazaro. Yashakaga kubigisha. Igihe cyose yaje yazaga mu nzu yabo, hari ibuye bari bakeneye gukuraho kuko yarazaga bakamufata nka musaza wabo gusa, nka mwene wabo.”
Yesu n’ubwo yabaye nk’utabyitayeho, ariko yagombaga kugera igihe akajya kuzura Lazaro kugira ngo Izina ry’Imana rihimbazwe cyane ko bashiki be n’Abayuda bagiraga kwizera guke.
Intumwa y’Imana yagize iti : ” Nyuma y’igihe gito abwira abigishwa be ngo ‘ Tugende Lazaro arasinziriye.’ Bibiliya iratubwira ku murongo wa 30 ngo ‘ Icyakora Yesu yari atarasohora mu kirorero ahubwo yari akiri aho Marita yamusanze.’ Hanyuma Yesu arababaza ngo mwamushyize he? Bati : ‘ Ngwino tukwereke aho ari.’ Kuri 37 haravuga ngo ‘ariko bamwe muri bo baravuga bati : ‘’ Uyu ko ahumura impumyi ntaba yarabashije kubuza n’uyu ntapfe?’ urupfu rwa Lazaro cyari ikizamini kuri aba bantu no kuri basaza be. Barizera neza ko Yesu ahumura impumyi, uko kwizera kukabohereza mu gukiza indwara. Kwizera kwabo ntikwageraga mu muzuko. Bo bumvaga Yesu yari bumusengere gusa igihe arwaye. Ariko bakumva kuzuka ntibishobnoka.”
Abayuda na bashiki ba Marita ngo bashyiriraga umupaka ku mbaraga za Yesu bakumva hari aho zitarenga. Ngo ni yo mpamvu yasuhuzaga umutima nk’uko bigaragara ku murongo wa 38. Yesu ngo yababajwe n’uko abo bantu bamufataga nyuma y’ibitangaza byose yari yarabakoreye. Ntibumvaga ko yagira icyo akora hirya y’urupfu.
Ngo kandi mu bitekerezo by’abo bantu, nta kuntu imbaraga za Yesu zari bukore igihe cyose Lazaro yari akiri inyuma y’igitare. Yesu ageze aho hantu ngo asanga urutare bamushyizeho rumeze nk’urwari mu mitima yabo, kuko mu mitima yabo harimo kugabanya imbaraga z’ubumana. Gitwaza akemeza ko iyo ufite Yesu muri wowe ariko ntumwemere mu mbaraga ze zose, ararira. Kubona Yesu aguha amafaranga ya bisi ariko ukumva ko ataguha amafaranga yo kugura imodoka nshya. Yesu yakiza indwara ariko ntiyazura abapfuye.
Ngo iryo buye ryo kutizera ni ryo rifashe abantu benshi. Ngo riri ku muryango utuma Yesu akora. Riri ku muryango ukingiraniye Yesu gukora. Ngo Yesu ntashobora kugira icyo akora hari ibuye ryo kutizera mu buzima bwawe. Igihe ufite ibuye ryo kutizera Yesu nta cyo azakora. Kugira ngo Yesu agire icyo akora, aragusaba gukuraho icyo washyizeho. Yaramubwiye ngo “ Nimukureho ibuye hanyuma mundeke. Nimudakuraho ibuye sinkora. Nimukuraho ibuye ndakora. ”
The Death of Lazarus
11 Now a man named Lazarus was sick. He was from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha. 2 (This Mary, whose brother Lazarus now lay sick, was the same one who poured perfume on the Lord and wiped his feet with her hair.) 3 So the sisters sent word to Jesus, “Lord, the one you love is sick.”
4 When he heard this, Jesus said, “This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for God’s glory so that God’s Son may be glorified through it.” 5 Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. 6 So when he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was two more days, 7 and then he said to his disciples, “Let us go back to Judea.”
8 “But Rabbi,” they said, “a short while ago the Jews there tried to stone you, and yet you are going back?”
9 Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours of daylight? Anyone who walks in the daytime will not stumble, for they see by this world’s light. 10 It is when a person walks at night that they stumble, for they have no light.”
11 After he had said this, he went on to tell them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep; but I am going there to wake him up.”
12 His disciples replied, “Lord, if he sleeps, he will get better.” 13 Jesus had been speaking of his death, but his disciples thought he meant natural sleep.
14 So then he told them plainly, “Lazarus is dead, 15 and for your sake I am glad I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him.”
16 Then Thomas (also known as Didymus[a]) said to the rest of the disciples, “Let us also go, that we may die with him.”
Jesus Comforts the Sisters of Lazarus
17 On his arrival, Jesus found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb for four days. 18 Now Bethany was less than two miles[b] from Jerusalem, 19 and many Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them in the loss of their brother. 20 When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet him, but Mary stayed at home.
21 “Lord,” Martha said to Jesus, “if you had been here, my brother would not have died. 22 But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask.”
23 Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.”
24 Martha answered, “I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”
25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; 26 and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?”
27 “Yes, Lord,” she replied, “I believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, who is to come into the world.”
28 After she had said this, she went back and called her sister Mary aside. “The Teacher is here,” she said, “and is asking for you.” 29 When Mary heard this, she got up quickly and went to him. 30 Now Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met him. 31 When the Jews who had been with Mary in the house, comforting her, noticed how quickly she got up and went out, they followed her, supposing she was going to the tomb to mourn there.
32 When Mary reached the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and said, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.”
33 When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled. 34 “Where have you laid him?” he asked.
“Come and see, Lord,” they replied.
35 Jesus wept.
36 Then the Jews said, “See how he loved him!”
37 But some of them said, “Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man have kept this man from dying?”
Jesus Raises Lazarus From the Dead
38 Jesus, once more deeply moved, came to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid across the entrance. 39 “Take away the stone,” he said.
“But, Lord,” said Martha, the sister of the dead man, “by this time there is a bad odor, for he has been there four days.”
40 Then Jesus said, “Did I not tell you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God?”
41 So they took away the stone. Then Jesus looked up and said, “Father, I thank you that you have heard me. 42 I knew that you always hear me, but I said this for the benefit of the people standing here, that they may believe that you sent me.”
43 When he had said this, Jesus called in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!” 44 The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around his face.
Jesus said to them, “Take off the grave clothes and let him go.”
The Plot to Kill Jesus
45 Therefore many of the Jews who had come to visit Mary, and had seen what Jesus did, believed in him. 46 But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done. 47 Then the chief priests and the Pharisees called a meeting of the Sanhedrin.
“What are we accomplishing?” they asked. “Here is this man performing many signs. 48 If we let him go on like this, everyone will believe in him, and then the Romans will come and take away both our temple and our nation.”
49 Then one of them, named Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, spoke up, “You know nothing at all! 50 You do not realize that it is better for you that one man die for the people than that the whole nation perish.”
51 He did not say this on his own, but as high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus would die for the Jewish nation, 52 and not only for that nation but also for the scattered children of God, to bring them together and make them one. 53 So from that day on they plotted to take his life.
54 Therefore Jesus no longer moved about publicly among the people of Judea. Instead he withdrew to a region near the wilderness, to a village called Ephraim, where he stayed with his disciples.
55 When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, many went up from the country to Jerusalem for their ceremonial cleansing before the Passover. 56 They kept looking for Jesus, and as they stood in the temple courts they asked one another, “What do you think? Isn’t he coming to the festival at all?” 57 But the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that anyone who found out where Jesus was should report it so that they might arrest him.
