Kuhusu
Kwa Nini Imani Nyingine?
Imani za Kikristo hutumika kama matamko ya msingi ya imani, kuunganisha waumini katika wakati na tamaduni katika ungamo la pamoja la imani. Kwa mfano, Imani ya Nicene ilitungwa mwaka 325 BK ili kupinga uzushi wa imani ya Kiariani, ambayo ilidai kwamba Yesu Kristo hakuwa mtakatifu kabisa. Kauli hii ya itikadi za Kikristo ilifafanua fundisho la kanisa juu ya Utatu, ikithibitisha kwamba Baba, Mwana na Roho Mtakatifu ni wa asili moja, huku pia ikizungumzia uzushi mwingine kadhaa. Matokeo yake yalikuwa kanuni ya imani iliyo wazi na yenye mamlaka ambayo imehifadhi mafundisho yenye uzima na kuthibitisha umoja wa kweli wa kanisa katika vizazi vyote.
Kila zama ina uzushi wake maalum. Katika karne ya 21, uzushi umeenea katika eneo la ujinsia wa wanadamu. Kanisa halijaepushwa na makosa haya. Tunaamini kuwa wakati umefika wa kanuni mpya ya imani inayothibitisha mafundisho ya milele ya kanisa kuhusu uadilifu wa kingono, na ambayo inafafanua mpango mtukufu wa Mungu wa ngono na ndoa kama inavyofunuliwa katika Maandiko Matakatifu.
Tumaini na maombi yetu ni kwamba Imani ya Australia ya Uadilifu wa Kijinsia itapata kibali cha kimataifa kutoka kwa viongozi wa kibiblia wa Orthodox katika Kanisa Katoliki, Kanisa la Anglikana/Episcopalian, Kanisa la Kilutheri, Kanisa la Presbyterian, Kanisa la Othodoksi, Kiinjili na makanisa ya Kipentekoste, na makanisa mengi. zaidi badala yake. Pia tunakaribisha usaidizi wa shule za Kikristo, mashirika ya misaada, huduma za makanisa na mashirika ya kimisionari.
Nani Aliandika Imani?
Wakristo kutoka madhehebu na vikundi vyote vilivyoorodheshwa hapo juu walikuwa hai katika mchakato wa kuandaa rasimu au walialikwa kuchangia. Imani ya Australia ya Uadilifu wa Kijinsia ni matokeo ya maombi mengi na mashauriano kutoka kwa maaskofu wakuu, maaskofu, wahudumu, mapadri, wachungaji, wanatheolojia, wasomi na wakuu wa madhehebu, pamoja na viongozi wa shule za Kikristo, mashirika yasiyo ya faida na mashirika mengine. Miongoni mwao kuna watu ambao wameoana kwa miongo kadhaa na wale ambao hawajaoa; madaktari wa theolojia na waraibu wa dawa za kulevya na ponografia waliopona; wajasiriamali waliofanikiwa na akina mama na akina baba wanaofanya kazi.
Kilichoanza kama mkutano mdogo wa maombi ya mtandaoni mapema Septemba 2024 hivi karibuni kilikua na kuwa timu shirikishi ya waandaaji zaidi ya 100 waliokuwa na shauku ya kuwasilisha ujumbe wa Biblia kuhusu uadilifu wa kingono kwa enzi mpya. Watayarishaji fulani walihudhuria kila mkutano, wengine walijiunga mara kwa mara, na bado wengine walitoa maoni yaliyoandikwa. Zawadi ya ufupi ilimaanisha kuwa mawazo mengi makuu yaliondolewa, na imani yenyewe iliandikwa upya kutoka mwanzo hadi mwisho kwa zaidi ya tukio moja. Kukamilisha imani ilikuwa juhudi iliyochukua karibu miezi miwili, ambayo ni takriban urefu sawa wa muda uliochukuliwa na watayarishaji wa Imani ya Nikea. Pamoja na kanda nyingi za mapokeo na huduma za Kikristo zikiwakilishwa, matokeo ya mwisho ni maandishi yasiyo na wakati na ya wakati wa kina, upana na utajiri wa ajabu.
Umoja na unyenyekevu ulioonyeshwa na watayarishaji katika mchakato mzima unaweza tu kuelezewa kuwa ni tendo la neema ya Mungu. Tunatoa shukrani kwa juhudi za nyuma ya pazia za maelfu ya watu ambao walikuwa wakiomba na kufunga kwa ajili ya uamsho wa kimataifa wa uadilifu wa ngono na kwa Mungu kuongoza mchakato wa kuandika. Waandikaji wengi walionyesha kustaajabishwa na maendeleo ya haraka yaliyofanywa na hisia ya msaada wa kimungu iliyoambatana na jitihada zetu. Tunaamini kwamba Bwana alisikia maombi yetu mengi kwa kanuni hii ya imani, na tunampa utukufu wote.
Imani hiyo ilitolewa hadharani tarehe 31 Oktoba 2024 ili sanjari na Siku ya Matengenezo katika utamaduni wa Kiprotestanti na mkesha wa Siku ya Watakatifu Wote kwa desturi ya Kikatoliki, ambayo ni sikukuu ya Kikatoliki katika baadhi ya nchi. Tarehe hii imeongeza umuhimu kwa Waaustralia, ikiwa ni siku ya kumbukumbu ya malipo ya Brigade ya Farasi Mwanga wa Australia huko Beer-sheba mnamo 1917, ambayo inadumu kama ishara ya kitaifa ya imani, ujasiri na maongozi ya kimungu.
Imani Itatumikaje?
Tunatazamia Imani ya Australia ya Uadilifu wa Kijinsia kuwa na matumizi anuwai, ikijumuisha kama:
- uthibitisho wa kimafundisho wa kutumika katika ibada, misa, maombi ya Kikristo na vikundi vya kujifunza Biblia, harusi na ibada za faragha.
- chombo cha kuelimisha cha kuwasaidia Wakristo kuelewa fundisho la Biblia kuhusu uadilifu katika ngono
- ulinzi wa kitheolojia dhidi ya uzushi na maelewano
- njia wazi kwa makanisa, taasisi za elimu za Kikristo, wizara na mashirika ya misheni kuashiria hadharani imani yao ya kweli, haswa kwa kuweka nembo ya imani kwenye wavuti yao.
- ngome ya kisheria ya kulinda makanisa, taasisi za elimu ya Kikristo, huduma, mashirika ya misheni na watu binafsi kutokana na sheria kandamizi na mashitaka makali.
- taarifa ya maadili ya kuunganisha mabaraza tawala ya makanisa, shule za Kikristo, vyuo vya Biblia na bodi za huduma
- tangazo la kuhamasisha kanisa la kimataifa na kukuza umoja wa Kikristo katika tamaduni na vizazi
Ili kusaidia kuwezesha malengo haya, a Mwongozo wa Ufafanuzi na Maandiko yanayotegemeza yamepatikana, pamoja na a Kujifunza Biblia.
Je, Nembo Inamaanisha Nini?
Imani ya Australia ya Uadilifu wa Kijinsia ina kuandamana nembo kusaidia katika mawasiliano ya kidijitali na kusaidia kukuza imani hiyo kwa hadhira pana ya kimataifa. Bendera ni ishara zenye nguvu za umoja, mwonekano na imani ya kawaida. Msalaba wa Kristo, kuwa alama ya Kikristo inayotambulika zaidi kwenye sayari, hutumikia katika alama hii ili kutofautisha wazi wanaume na wanawake, na kuwaunganisha. Ni kutokana na msalaba wake Kristo anaufikia kwa upendo ulimwengu wa aina mbalimbali unaohitaji ukombozi. Rangi ya bluu na nyekundu iliyo karibu zaidi na msalaba hufuata rangi za bendera ya taifa ya Australia.
Tunahimiza makanisa, shule za Kikristo, vyuo vya Biblia, huduma, mashirika ya misheni na vikundi vingine vya Kikristo vinavyothibitisha imani hiyo kuonyesha nembo yake kwenye tovuti zao kama taarifa ya wazi ya uaminifu wao kwa ukweli wa Biblia.
Je, ninaweza Kuchapisha Imani na Nembo?
Ndiyo. Imani ya Australia ya Uadilifu wa Kijinsia na nembo yake imeundwa kwa matumizi ya bure na Wakristo kutoka kila taifa. Imani na nembo zote ni rasilimali huria zinazosimamiwa na a Leseni ya Creative Commons (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0), kuwafanya kuwa huru kushiriki, kunakili na kusambaza upya kimataifa bila mabadiliko kwa madhumuni yasiyo ya kibiashara. Unapofanya hivyo, hakikisha unatoa maelezo sahihi na ujumuishe kiungo cha nyuma cha URL ili watu waweze kuona na kufikia chanzo asili. Ukizichapisha katika hali ya kibiashara, tunaomba tu kwamba uchangie shirika la usaidizi upendalo linalolinda wanawake na watoto dhidi ya ulanguzi wa ngono.
