Gn 3:1-8
Genesis 3:1
Now the snake was the most cunning of all the wild animals that the LORD God had made. He asked the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You shall not eat from any of the trees in the garden’?”
Genesis 3:2
The woman answered the snake: “We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden;
Genesis 3:3
it is only about the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden that God said, ‘You shall not eat it or even touch it, or else you will die.’”
Genesis 3:4
But the snake said to the woman: “You certainly will not die!
Genesis 3:5
God knows well that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened and you will be like gods, who know good and evil.”
Genesis 3:6
The woman saw that the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eyes, and the tree was desirable for gaining wisdom. So she took some of its fruit and ate it; and she also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it.
Genesis 3:7
Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made loincloths for themselves.
Genesis 3:8
When they heard the sound of the LORD God walking about in the garden at the breezy time of the day, the man and his wife hid themselves from the LORD God among the trees of the garden.

Mark 7:33
He took him off by himself away from the crowd. He put his finger into the man’s ears and, spitting, touched his tongue;

Na andiko la Baba Askofu Kalikawe Lwakalinda Bagonza PhD

MAKONDA: Ni Tatizo, Dalili au Suluhisho?

Paul Makonda ni zaidi Katibu Mwenezi wa chama Tawala. Tumewahi kuwa nao wengi na wapo wengi wa vyama vingine. Hakuna kama Makonda uzuri na kwa ubaya. Kwa nini?

1. Kama Makonda ni tatizo basi halina suluhisho. Kwa sababu ndani ya chama tawala huyu ndiye ameonekana. Na kama huyu ndiye bora zaidi, waliobaki wana hali gani?

2. Kama Makonda ni dalili ya tatizo basi dalili huwa hazina tiba. Tusubiri ugonjwa wenyewe ndipo tujue tiba. Mgonjwa anayetetemeka kwa homa, kumfunika blanketi zito si kutibu ugonjwa. Ni kusaidia mayai ya vimelea yaanguliwe na mgonjwa atakuwa na hali mbaya zaidi.

3. Kama Makonda ni Suluhisho basi ni lile la “Bomoa yote tutajenga kesho”. Mchelea mwana kulia hulia yeye mwenyewe. Yeye amekuwa suluhisho zaidi ya dawa ya rangi mbili inayoua vimelea vyote mwilini.

AMESAIDIA SANA:

- Sasa tunajua hali yetu si njema. Hakuna utawala wa sheria wala wa mfumo.

- Sasa tunajua hasara za kukaa gizani. Ukikosa upinzani bungeni na mabarazani, ukakosa uhuru wa habari, ukakosa wana harakati huru, unastawisha CHAWA kila mahali.

- Sasa tunajua wananchi wanaona bora dikteta kuliko demokrasia, yaani bora shibe ya gerezani kuliko njaa ya uraiani.

- Sasa tunajua wenye shida wanataka mtu si taasisi wala mfumo.

- Sasa tunajua kila suluhisho linazaa tatizo. Ukifuga mbwa mkali wa kulinda wezi, kuna siku atakuzuia wewe usiingie nyumbani kwako.

- Sasa tunajua hakuna bunge huru, hakuna mahakama huru, hakuna DPP huru, hakuna AG huru - ila kuna Chama huru.

HEKIMA: Kuna mbwa akiwinda na kukamata mawindo, huwezi kumfukuza eti anaharibu ngozi. Atakula kitoweo chote na mwenye mbwa atakula mchicha siku hiyo.

In every age, O Lord, you have been our refuge.
Before the mountains were begotten
and the earth and the world were brought forth,
from everlasting to everlasting you are God.
R. In every age, O Lord, you have been our refuge.

For a thousand years in your sight

You make an end of them in their sleep;

Which at dawn springs up anew,
but by evening wilts and fades.
R. In every age, O Lord, you have been our refuge.
Teach us to number our days aright,
that we may gain wisdom of heart.
Return, O LORD! How long?
Have pity on your servants!

CHADEMA tulimpa heshima kubwa sana Mzee Edward Lowassa ya kuwa mgombea wetu wa kiti cha Rais. Ujio wake ndani ya CHADEMA uliibua hisia tofauti, lakini tulifanikiwa kusonga mbele.

Ugomvi na chuki za rafiki yake wa karibu, Jakaya Kikwete zilimkimbiza Edward Lowassa CCM. Kwetu sisi CHADEMA, Edward Lowassa aliongeza kitu kikubwa katika uchaguzi wa mwaka 2015.

Ni katika uchaguzi wa 2015, kwa mara ya kwanza Tume ya Taifa ya Uchaguzi (NEC) iliwapa wapinzani (CHADEMA) kura 6,072,848 (39.97%) na mgombea wa CCM akapewa kura 8,882,935 (58.46%).

Kwa kuwa Edward Lowassa alihisi kusalitiwa, na kwa kuwa CHADEMA lengo letu kubwa la kisiasa ni kuongoza DOLA ili kutekekeza sera na itikadi zetu kisiasa, tulimkaribisha Lowassa, CHADEMA.

Kabla ya ujio wa Edward Lowassa, CHADEMA ilikuwa na viti vya ubunge katika majimbo 23 ya uchaguzi na viti maalumu 26 na hivyo kuwa na idadi ya jumla ya wabunge 49 katika bunge la 10 la 2010-2015,

Ujio wa Edward Lowassa uliongeza wabunge kutoka majimbo 23 mwaka 2010 hadi majimbo 35 mwaka 2015. Viti maalumu kutoka 26 hadi 43 na kufanya jumla ya wabunge CHADEMA 78 bunge la 11

Hii kwetu wafuasi na wanachama was CHADEMA ilikuwa ni rekodi ambayo haijawahi kufikiwa na chama chochote cha upinzani tangu Tanzania ipate uhuru, binafsi, Edward Lowassa alikuwa “Asset”

Kabla kuondoka Edward Lowassa ndani ya CCM, CCM ilikuwa na wabunge wa viti maalumu 79 waliopatikana katika uchaguzi wa mwaka 2010. Mwaka 2015 CCM ikapata wabunge wa viti maalumu 62 tu

Nguvu ya Edward Lowassa iliondoka na viti maalum 17. Waliongezeka CHADEMA, ambayo ilikuwa na viti maalumu 43. Chukua viti 26 vya CHADEMA 2010 + viti 17 alivyokuja navyo Edward Lowassa = 43.

2010-2015, CCM ilikuwa inapokea ruzuku zaidi ya 78% ya ruzuku yote ya vyama vya siasa kutokana na kura za Rais alizopata Jakaya Kikwete, 2015 CCM ikapokea ruzuku isiyozidi 59% ya ruzuku.

Hii ni pungufu ya 20% waliyopoteza CCM, na kwa mara ya kwanza chama cha upinzani kikapokea 40% ya ruzuku yote ya vyama siasa, hii ni kutokana na kura mil 6=39% alizopata Edward Lowassa.

Kabla ya ujio wa Edward Lowassa CHADEMA, katika majiji matano (5), Mbeya, Dar es Salaam, Tanga, Mwanza na Arusha, CHADEMA ilikuwa haiongozi hata jiji moja kati ya hayo kwa mwaka 2010-2015.

Awali, majiji yote yalikuwa chini ya CCM. Ujio wa Edward Lowassa ukaifanya CHADEMA kuongoza majiji 4 (Mbeya, Dar es Salaam, Arusha na Tanga ingawa Tanga ilikuwa chini ya UKAWA).

Halmashauri hizo za majiji zilikuwa chini ya CHADEMA kutokana na ushindi wa madiwani wake na CCM ilibaki na jiji la Mwanza. CCM ilipoteza majiji 4 kutokana na kuondoka kwa Lowassa.

Katika uchaguzi Mkuu wa 2015 ambao Edward Lowassa alikuwa mgombea Urais, CHADEMA tulipata viti 1,184 vya madiwanj nchi nzima. Hii ni rekodi kubwa kuwekwa na chama cha upinzani.

Baada ya uchaguzi wa mwaka 2010-2015 CHADEMA ilikuwa inaongoza halmashauri 5 nchi nzima, mwaka 2015 kwa mara ya kwanza CHADEMA iliongoza halimashauri 30 Tanzania nzima.

Katika nyanja ya uchaguzi, CHADEMA tunatambua mchango mkubwa wa Mzee Edward Ngoyai Lowassa. Ni wakati akiwa mgombea wetu wa Urais, tunaamini aliporwa ushindi wake na Jakaya Kikwete.

Pumzika kwa Amani Mzee Edward Ngoyai Lowassa.

MMM, Martin Maranja Masese.

LOWASA: Mfupi wa Maisha na Mrefu wa Historia.

Edward Lowasa ameondoka. Yuko mahali salama pasipo na mgawo wa umeme wala usanii wetu wa Kibongo. Amepumzika baada ya kazi ngumu. Anapokufa mtu mzito, kuna makundi makuu matatu.
- Wanaolia sana
-Wanaofurahia sana
-Wasiojua kama walie au wafurahie.

Yote matatu tunayo katika kifo cha Edward Lowasa. Mimi sijui kundi langu lakini niseme manne ninayomkumbukia Edward Lowasa:

1. Dola yetu ina mihimili mitatu: Bunge, serikali na mahakama. Lakini kwa njia ya Edward Lowasa, alisababisha mihimili mitatu ndani ya mhimili wa bunge:
- Spika Samwel Sitta
-Wabunge mitume
-Edward Lowasa akiwa Waziri Mkuu.
Bunge lile halitasahaulika kwa wema na ubaya wake.

2. Alikuwa mtetezi asiyekuwa na mtetezi.
- Alikitetea chama chake, nacho kikamtelekeza.
-Alimtetea Rais wake bila kujali kama anatetewa ama la!
-Aliitetea nchi (maji, umeme na elimu) lakini nchi ikawatetea watesi wake.

3. Aliwapenda na kuwatetea Wamasai. Watesi wake wakamchonganisha nao. Wakahoji umasai wake na U-Laigwanani wake. Upendo wake kwa Wamasai ukawa na nguvu kuliko fitina za kiitikadi. Akiwa hai hadi kifoni - Edward ni Mmasai.

4. Alisalitiwa na wengi aliowasaidia. Baada ya kumtumia na kummaliza, alibaki na Regina. Viongozi tujifunze kujali familia zetu. Mwisho wa madaraka, mzigo unabebwa na familia. Mambo ya “Pengo halitazibika” ni ulaghai mtu. Kufa uone tutakavyoliziba hata kabla ya mazishi!

UBINADAMU WA LOWASA

a. Aliwaamini watu kuliko alivyoaminiwa.

b. Alikataa kuamini au kuutukuza umaskini. Kwa njia hii akatengeneza giza la kutuhumiwa na watesi wake.

c. Aliamini kwa dhati kuwa unaweza kuwa tajiri na mzalendo kuliko dhana ya kuwa umaskini ndio uzalendo.

d. Alitumikia vyama 2 vikubwa. Vikamchafua na kumsafisha. Ameondoka akiwa mshindi wa vyote viwili. Anatukuzwa na waliombeza.

Nilibahatika kuwa karibu naye. Niliona furaha yake na machozi yake. Ameishi miaka ya kibiblia (70). Historia yake ni ndefu kuliko miaka hii. Nenda Edward.

Alipofanya vibaya, tumwachie yeye na muumba wake.

Alipofanya vizuri, ni juu yetu na muumba wetu.

Pole Mama Regina, Watoto na wajukuu.

Gn 4:1-15, 25
Genesis 4:1
The man had intercourse with his wife Eve, and she conceived and gave birth to Cain, saying, “I have produced a male child with the help of the LORD.”
Genesis 4:2
Next she gave birth to his brother Abel. Abel became a herder of flocks, and Cain a tiller of the ground.
Genesis 4:3
In the course of time Cain brought an offering to the LORD from the fruit of the ground,
Genesis 4:4
while Abel, for his part, brought the fatty portion of the firstlings of his flock. The LORD looked with favor on Abel and his offering,
Genesis 4:5
but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor. So Cain was very angry and dejected.
Genesis 4:6
Then the LORD said to Cain: Why are you angry? Why are you dejected?
Genesis 4:7
If you act rightly, you will be accepted; but if not, sin lies in wait at the door: its urge is for you, yet you can rule over it.
Genesis 4:8
Cain said to his brother Abel, “Let us go out in the field.” When they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.
Genesis 4:9
Then the LORD asked Cain, Where is your brother Abel? He answered, “I do not know. Am I my brother’s keeper?”
Genesis 4:10
God then said: What have you done? Your brother’s blood cries out to me from the ground!
Genesis 4:11
Now you are banned from the ground that opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand.
Genesis 4:12
If you till the ground, it shall no longer give you its produce. You shall become a constant wanderer on the earth.
Genesis 4:13
Cain said to the LORD: “My punishment is too great to bear.
Genesis 4:14
Look, you have now banished me from the ground. I must avoid you and be a constant wanderer on the earth. Anyone may kill me at sight.”
Genesis 4:15
Not so! the LORD said to him. If anyone kills Cain, Cain shall be avenged seven times. So the LORD put a mark on Cain, so that no one would kill him at sight.
Genesis 4:25
Adam again had intercourse with his wife, and she gave birth to a son whom she called Seth. “God has granted me another offspring in place of Abel,” she said, “because Cain killed him.”
Gospel
Mk 8:11-13
Mark 8:11
The Pharisees came forward and began to argue with him, seeking from him a sign from heaven to test him.
Mark 8:12
He sighed from the depth of his spirit and said, “Why does this generation seek a sign? Amen, I say to you, no sign will be given to this generation.”
Mark 8:13
Then he left them, got into the boat again, and went off to the other shore.
