(a) Chaza ukuthi uJesu wayewubona njani uMthetho kaNkulunkulu. (b) Ababhali labaFarisi babewuphatha njani uMthetho?\nUJESU wayewuthanda kakhulu uMthetho kaMosi. Lokhu akusimangalisi ngoba uMthetho lo wawuvela kuYise uJehova. IBhayibhili laphrofetha ukuthi uJesu wayezawuthanda ngenhliziyo yonke umthetho kaNkulunkulu, lathi: “Ngiyakunxwanela ukwenza intando yakho, O Nkulunkulu wami; umthetho wakho usenhliziyweni yami.” (Hubo. 40:8) Lakanye uJesu watshengisa ngamazwi langezenzo ukuthi uMthetho kaNkulunkulu wawuphelele futhi ulusizo. Kanti njalo wayeqiniseka ukuthi konke okwakukuwo kwakuzagcwaliseka.—Mat. 5:17-19.\n2 Kumele ukuthi kwamzwisa ubuhlungu ukubona ababhali labaFarisi bewusebenzisa kubi uMthetho owawuvela kuYise. Babegijimela ukwenza izinto ezincane ezaziqanjwa emthethweni kodwa betshiya izinto eziqakathekileyo. Yikho uJesu wathi kubo: “Linika okwetshumi okweziyoliso zenu—iminti ledili lekhamini. Kodwa seliyekethisile kulezozinto eziyisiqokoqela somthetho—ukwenza okulungileyo kwabanye, umusa kanye lokwethembeka.” (Mat. 23:23) UJesu wayengafanani labaFarisi ngoba yena wayewuzwisisa uMthetho kaNkulunkulu lezimiso ezitholakala kuwo.\n3 Lamuhla kasisekho ngaphansi kwesivumelwano soMthetho. (Rom. 7:6) Kodwa kungani uJehova wawufaka eLizwini lakhe iBhayibhili? Kungenxa yokuthi ufuna sizwisise futhi sisebenzise ‘izinto eziyisiqokoqela somthetho’ okutsho izimiso eziqakathekileyo ezikuwo. Ngokwesibonelo yiziphi izimiso esizithola endabeni yamadolobho okuphephela? Ngeviki ephelileyo sibonile ukuthi kuyini esikufunda kulokho okwakusenziwa ngumuntu owayebulele omunye ngengozi. Kuliviki sizabona ukuthi uhlelo lwamadolobho okuphephela lusifundisani ngoJehova lokuthi singamlingisela njani. Ngakho esihlokweni lesi sizaphendula imibuzo le emithathu: Amadolobho okuphephela asifundisani ngesihawu sikaJehova? Asifundisani ngokuqakatheka kokuphila? Atshengisa njani ukuthi uJehova wahlulela kuhle? Nxa sixoxa ngemibuzo le zama ukubona ukuthi wena ungamlingisela njani uBaba wethu osezulwini.—Bala u-Efesu 5:1.\nUHLELO OLUTSHENGISA ISIHAWU SIKAJEHOVA\n4, 5. (a) Ayemiswe njani amadolobho okuphephela njalo kwakusenzelwani? (b) Lokhu kusifundisani ngoJehova?\n4 UJehova watshela abako-Israyeli ukuthi bakhethe amadolobho okuphephela ngapha langapha kweJodani. Amadolobho la ayeseduze labantu, ngakho kwakulula ukuthi umuntu obulele omunye ngengozi aphangise ukufika khona ukuze avikeleke. (Nani. 35:11-14) Kanti njalo imigwaqo eyayiqonda emadolobheni la yayilungiswa ukuze ihlale imihle. (Dute. 19:3) Ezinye ingcitshi zembali yamaJuda zibika ukuthi emigwaqweni le kwakulamabhakane ayeqondisa umuntu obalekela edolobheni lokuphephela. Ngakho njengoba amadolobho la ayeseduze, sasingekho isizatho sokuthi umuntu obulele omunye ngengozi abalekele kwezinye izizwe ezazikhonza onkulunkulu bamanga.\n5 UJehova nguye owafaka umthetho wokuthi umuntu obulala omunye abulawe. Lanxa kunjalo wenza uhlelo lokuthi umuntu owayebulele omunye ngengozi atshengiswe isihawu futhi avikelwe. Omunye umlobi wathi: “Yonke into yayenziwe yaba lula futhi lokhu kutshengisa ukuthi uNkulunkulu ulomusa.” Siyabona-ke ukuthi uJehova nguNkulunkulu “olesihawu esikhulu” futhi kahlali elandelela abantu bakhe efuna ukubajezisa.—Efe. 2:4.\n6. AbaFarisi babelaso yini isihawu?\n6 AbaFarisi bona babengelaso isihawu. Ngokwesibonelo amasiko amaJuda aveza ukuthi babengamthetheleli umuntu nxa eseliphinde kathathu icala elifananayo. Yikho ukuze abatshengise ukuthi ababekwenza kwakukubi, uJesu wabatshela umzekeliso womFarisi othile owayekhuleka eceleni komthelisi esithi: “Nkulunkulu, ngiyakubonga ukuthi kanginjengabanye abantu—izigebengu, izixhwali, izifebe—njalo kangifani lomthelisi lo.” Kuyini okwakusenza abaFarisi babe lukhuni kangaka? IBhayibhili lithi ‘babeseyisa abanye.’—Luk. 18:9-14.\nUzimisele yini ukuthethelela abanye nxa bekuphambanisile? Yenza kube lula ukuthi bazoxolisa kuwe (Khangela izindima 4-8)\n7, 8. (a) Ungamlingisela njani uJehova nxa omunye ekuphambanisile? (b) Kuyini okungasinceda ukuthi senelise ukuthethelela abanye?\n7 Lingisela uJehova, ungenzi njengabaFarisi. (Bala uKholose 3:13.) Zimisele ukuthethelela abanye njalo wenze kube lula ukuthi bazoxolisa nxa bekuphambanisile. (Luk. 17:3, 4) Okunye okungakunceda yikuzibuza imibuzo elandelayo: ‘Ngiyabathethelela yini abanye lanxa bengonele kanengi? Ngizimisele yini ukuyaxoxa lomuntu ongiphambanisileyo ukuze ngilondoloze ukuthula?’\n8 Kumele sibe ngabantu abathobekileyo ukuze senelise ukuthethelela abanye. Khumbula ukuthi abaFarisi babesehluleka ukuthethelela abanye ngoba babebakhangelela phansi. Ngakho kumele sibone abanye ‘njengabangcono kulathi’ ukuze kube lula ukuthi sibathethelele. (Flp. 2:3) Uzamlingisela yini uJehova ube ngumuntu othobekileyo? Nxa uthobekile abanye ngeke bathikaze ukuzoxolisa nxa bekuphambanisile futhi kuzakuba lula ukuthi ubathethelele. Woba ngumuntu ophangisayo ukutshengisa abanye isihawu futhi ophuzayo ukuthukuthela.—UmTshu. 7:8, 9.\nHLONIPHA UKUPHILA UKUZE UNGABI LECALA LEGAZI\n9. UJehova wabanceda njani abako-Israyeli ukuthi bahloniphe ukuphila komuntu?\n9 UJehova wahlela ukuthi kube lamadolobho okuphephela ngoba wayengafuni ukuthi abako-Israyeli babe lecala legazi. (Dute. 19:10) UJehova uyakuqakathekisa ukuphila futhi uyabazonda abantu ‘abalezandla ezichitha igazi elingelacala.’ (Zaga. 6:16, 17) Ngokwesibonelo lanxa umuntu obulele omunye ngengozi wayetshengiswa isihawu kukhona okwakumele akwenze. Kwakufanele ayekwethula indaba yakhe ebadaleni njalo nxa kungatholakala ukuthi ubengahlosanga ukubulala, wayebuyiselwa edolobheni lokuphephela. Kwakungamelanga asuke kulelodolobho nxa umphristi omkhulu engakafi, yikho kwakungenzakala ukuthi ahlale eyisiphepheli ukuphila kwakhe konke. Umlayo lo wanceda abako-Israyeli ukuthi bahloniphe ukuphila komuntu. Kwakumele babalekele loba yini eyayingabangela ukuthi bachithe igazi ukuze batshengise ukuthi bayamhlonipha uMdali wabo obanika ukuphila.\n10. Ababhali labaFarisi batshengisa njani ukuthi babengakuqakathekisi ukuphila?\n10 Ababhali labaFarisi bona babengakuqakathekisi ukuphila. Sikutsho ngani lokhu? UJesu wabatshela wathi: “Seliyivalile intuba yolwazi. Lina ngokwenu kalingenanga, laphinda lavimbela labo ababesithi bayangena.” (Luk. 11:52) Ababhali labaFarisi yibo okwakumele bancedise abanye ukuthi bazwisise iLizwi likaNkulunkulu njalo bangene endleleni eya ekuphileni okuphakade. Kodwa bona babebavimbela ukuthi babe ngabalandeli bakaJesu njalo bebaqondisa ekubhujisweni. (ImiSeb. 3:15) Siyabona-ke ukuthi ababhali labaFarisi babengabakhokheli abangelasihawu ngoba babengakuqakathekisi ukuphila kwabanye njalo bengelandaba labo.\n11. (a) Umphostoli uPhawuli watshengisa njani ukuthi uyakuqakathekisa ukuphila? (b) Thina singamlingisela njani uPhawuli?\n11 Singenzani ukuze singacini sisenza njengababhali labaFarisi? Kumele sitshengise ukuthi siyakuqakathekisa ukuphila. Lokhu yikho kanye okwenziwa ngumphostoli uPhawuli, walitshumayela ngenkuthalo ivangeli loMbuso waze wathi: “Kangilacala ngegazi labantu bonke.” (Bala ImiSebenzi 20:26, 27.) Kayisikho ukuthi uPhawuli wayesesaba ukuba lecala legazi kodwa okwamenza wakhuthala ekutshumayeleni yikuthi wayebathanda abantu futhi ekuqakathekisa ukuphila kwabo. (1 Khor. 9:19-23) Lathi kumele sikhuthale ekutshumayeleni ukuze sitshengise ukuthi siyakuqakathekisa ukuphila. UJehova ufuna ‘ukuba umuntu wonke aphenduke.’ (2 Phet. 3:9) Wena uyafuna yini ukuncedisa abanye ukuthi baphenduke? Okungakusiza ukuthi ukhuthale emsebenzini lo futhi ukholise ukuwenza yikuba lesihawu lokuthanda abantu ngenhliziyo yonke.\n12. Kungani kumele siqakathekise indaba yokuvikeleka?\n12 Enye indlela esingatshengisa ngayo ukuthi siyakuqakathekisa ukuphila yikuhlala sizivikela ezingozini kukho konke esikwenzayo. Ngokwesibonelo kumele sibe leqiniso lokuthi sivikelekile nxa sisakha amaWolu oMbuso loba nxa siwalungisisa. Kanti njalo nxa silezimota kumele sitshayele ngendlela etshengisa ukuthi siyakuqakathekisa ukuphila. Akufanelanga sifake impilo zethu engozini ngenxa yokufuna imali kumbe ukuqeda umsebenzi othile esiwenzayo. Kumele silingisele uNkulunkulu wethu ohlala esenza okuhle. Abadala kumele babe yisibonelo esihle endabeni le njalo babe leqiniso lokuthi abanye basebenza bevikelekile. (Zaga. 22:3) Ngakho nxa umdala othile engakukhumbuza okumele ukwenze ukuze uvikeleke kufanele wamukele iseluleko sakhe. (Gal. 6:1) Nxa singaqakathekisa ukuphila njengoJehova kasisoze sibe “lecala lokuchitha igazi.”\n‘KUMELE LAHLULELE LILANDELA LEZI ZIMISO’\n13, 14. Kuyini okwakumele kwenziwe ngabadala bako-Israyeli ukuze bahlulele kuhle?\n13 UJehova wakhuthaza abadala bako-Israyeli ukuthi basebenzise izimiso zakhe ezilungileyo nxa besahlulela. Okokuqala kwakumele bachwayisise kuhle indaba ukuze bezwe ukuthi kuhambe njani. Ngemva kwalokho kwakumele bahlolisise imbali yalowomuntu obulele omunye lokuthi wayelobudlelwano bani laye. Kwakufanele badingisise lokuthi wayemqophile yini kumbe wayekwenze ngengozi. Lokhu kwakuzakwenza kube lula ukuthi bamtshengise isihawu lowomuntu. (Bala AmaNani 35:20-24.) Nxa kubizwa ofakazi endabeni yecala lokubulala, kwakudingeka ababili hatshi umuntu oyedwa.—Nani. 35:30.\n14 Langemva kokuthola ukuthi kwenzakaleni, abadala kwakungamelanga bayithathele phezulu indaba kodwa kwakumele bacabangisise ngalowomuntu. Ngokwesibonelo kwakufanele babe lokuqedisisa, bazame ukuzwisisa izizatho ezazingabe zibangele ukuthi akwenze lokho. Okunye okwakuqakatheke kakhulu yikuthandazela umoya ongcwele kaJehova ukuze ubasize ukuthi benelise ukuba lesihawu lokuqedisisa njalo bahlulele kuhle.—Eks. 34:6, 7.\n15. UJesu wayetshiyene njani labaFarisi?\n15 AbaFarisi babengelaso isihawu nxa besahlulela, kulokuthi bancede umuntu bona babekhangela icala alenzileyo. Ngokwesibonelo bathi bebona uJesu esedilini elalisemzini kaMathewu baya kubafundi bakhe bathi: “Kungani umfundisi wenu esidla labathelisi lezoni na?” UJesu wakuzwa lokho wasesithi kubo: ‘Abaphilileyo kabamdingi [umelaphi, NW] kodwa udingwa ngabagulayo. Hambani liyofunda ukuthi kutshoni lokhu ukuthi, ‘Ngokuba ngifuna isihawu hatshi umhlatshelo.’ Ngokuba kangilandanga ukubiza abalungileyo kodwa izoni.’ (Mat. 9:9-13) UJesu wayebalekela icala yini? Hatshi. Wayetshengisa ukuthi akuqakathekisayo yikunceda abantu abayizoni ukuthi baphenduke. (Mat. 4:17) Wananzelela ukuthi phakathi kwabo bakhona ababefuna ukuphenduka. Ngakho babengalandanga ukukholisa emzini kaMathewu kodwa iBhayibhili liveza ukuthi abanengi ‘babelandela [uJesu].’ (Mak. 2:15) AbaFarisi bona abazange bakubone okuhle uJesu ayekubona ebantwini laba. Babengamlingiseli lakancane uNkulunkulu olesihawu ngoba babeseyisa abanye besithi bayizoni.\n16. Kuyini okumele kwenziwe ngabadala ukuze bahlulele kuhle?\n16 Lamuhla abadala kumele balingisele uJehova ngoba yena “uthanda ukwahlulela okuhle.” (Hubo. 37:28, NW) Okokuqala kumele ‘babuzisise, bachwayisise njalo bahlole ngokupheleleyo’ ukuthi icala lenzakele yini. Nxa bangathola ukuthi lenzakele kumele balandele lokho okutshiwo yiMibhalo. (Dute. 13:12-14) Kanti njalo nxa kungabunjwa ikhomithi yokwahlulela, abadala abakukhomithi leyo kumele bahlolisise ngonanzelelo ukuthi umuntu owenze icala uphendukile yini loba hatshi. Akulula ukubona ukuthi umuntu uphendukile. Ngakho kumele bahlole ukuthi lowomuntu ulibona njani icala alenzileyo lokuthi uzwa njani ngalo. (Isam. 3:3) Umuntu kumele aphenduke ngeqiniso ukuze atshengiswe isihawu. *\n17, 18. Kuyini okunganceda abadala babone ukuthi umuntu uphenduke ngeqiniso?\n17 UJehova loJesu bayenelisa ukubona okusenhliziyweni yomuntu kodwa abadala kabenelisi. Manje bangabona njani ukuthi umuntu uphendukile yini loba hatshi? Okokuqala kumele bathandaze bacele ukuthi uJehova abanike ukuhlakanipha lokuqedisisa. (1 AmaKho. 3:9) Okwesibili kumele bahlole iLizwi likaNkulunkulu kanye lamabhuku adindwa yinceku ethembekileyo lehlakaniphileyo ukuze benelise ukwehlukanisa “usizi lwasemhlabeni” kanye ‘losizi lokwesaba uNkulunkulu’ okutsho ukuphenduka kweqiniso. (2 Khor. 7:10, 11) Okunye abangakwenza yikuhlola ukuthi iBhayibhili libachaza njani abantu abaphenduka ngeqiniso ezonweni zabo lalabo abangazange baphenduke. Kumele bahlole indlela labobantu ababesenza ngayo lokuthi babesizwa njani ngamacala ababewenzile.\n18 Okwesithathu kumele bazame ukudingisisa okunengi ngomuntu owenze isono. Ngokwesibonelo kufanele bahlole ukuthi wakhulela ngaphi, ukuthi wakhuliswa njani lokuthi kungaphi lapho abesilela khona. IBhayibhili laphrofetha ngoJesu lathi: “Kayikwahlulela ngalokho akubona ngamehlo akhe, loba aqume ngalokho akuzwa ngendlebe zakhe; kodwa abaswelayo uzabehlulela ngokulunga aqumele abayanga basemhlabeni ngokulunga.” (Isaya. 11:3, 4) Yikho-ke badala nxa lingazama ukulingisela uJesu umkhokheli webandla, uzalincedisa ukuthi lenelise ukwahlulela kuhle njengaye. (Mat. 18:18-20) Siyababonga kakhulu abadala ngomsebenzi omuhle abawenzayo ukuze basinakekele. Isibonelo sabo siyasisiza lathi ukuthi siphathe kuhle abanye futhi sibatshengise isihawu.\n19. Yiziphi izifundo ozithole endabeni yamadolobho okuphephela ofuna ukuzisebenzisa?\n19 UMthetho kaMosi wawuhlanganisa “ulwazi leqiniso” ngoJehova langezimiso zakhe ezilungileyo. (Rom. 2:20) Ngokwesibonelo amadolobho okuphephela afundisa abadala ukuthi ‘bahlulele ngobuqotho’ futhi asiza sonke ukuthi ‘sitshengise isihawu lozwelo komunye lomunye.’ (Zek. 7:9) Lanxa singekho ngaphansi koMthetho kaMosi, esikunanzelelayo yikuthi uJehova kakantshintshi futhi ulokhu ekuqakathekisa ukwahlulela kuhle lokuba lesihawu. Kuyasithokozisa sibili ukukhonza uNkulunkulu onjalo. Ngakho kasizimiseleni ukumlingisela lokuphephela kuye sonke isikhathi.\n^ indima 16 Khangela isihloko esithi, “Imibuzo Evela Kubafundi” ku-Nqabayokulinda yesiZulu kaSeptember 15 2006 ekhasini 30.\nText Izindlela zokudawuniloda amabhuku akuwebhusayithi INQABAYOKULINDA—EFUNDWAYO November 2017


Abafundi beBhayibheli ngo-1870’s\nISithalasokulinda sokuthoma ngo-1879\nIBhayibhili yabikezela ukuthi ngemva kokufa kwakaKrestu, kuzokuvela abafundisi bamala hlangana namaKrestu wekadeni bese batjharaganisa iqiniso leBhayibhili. (IZenzo 20:29, 30) Ngokukhamba kwesikhathi, ngilokho kanye okwenzeka. Bavanga iimfundiso zakaJesu neembono yabo yekolo yoburhedeni, ngemva kwalokho kwaba namaKrestu wobuzenzisi. (2 Thimothi 4:3, 4) Singaqiniseka njani bona namhlanjesi sikuzwisisa kuhle lokho kwamambala okufundiswa yiBhayibhili?\nKwafika isikhathi sokobana uJehova ambule iqiniso. Wabikezela bona ‘hlangana nesikhathi sokuphela, ilwazi leqiniso lizokuba yinala.’ (Danyela 12:4) Ngo-1870, isiqhenyana salabo egade bafuna iqiniso salemuka bona iimfundiso zamasondo bezingakasekelwa eBhayibhilini. Ngalokho, bathoma ukwenza irhubhululo lokuzwisisa iimfundiso zamambala zalokho okufundiswa yiBhayibhili, begodu uJehova wababusisa ngelemuko leemtlolo.\nAmadoda athembekileko ayihlolisisa ngokuyelela iBhayibhili. AbaFundi BeBhayibhili abathembekilekwabo, ababakhambeli phambili bethu, bakhuthalela indlela yokufunda nathi esiyisebenzisako namhlanjesi. Badembamba isihloko ngasinye seBhayibhili. Nebahlangabezana neMitlolo ebudisi ukuyizwisisa, baqala eminye imitlolo bona ibatlhadlhule. Nebafinyelela isiphetho esivumelana nayo yoke iMitlolo, bebakutlola phasi lokho abakufumeneko. Ngokuvumela iBhayibhili bona izikhulumele, bafumana amaqiniso ngebizo lakaZimu nangoMbuso wakhe, umnqopho ngabantu nangephasi, ubujamo babantu abahlongakeleko kunye nethemba levuko. Irhubhululo labo labatjhaphulula eemfundisweni nezenzweni zamala.—Jwanisi 8:31, 32.\nNgo-1879 abaFundi BeBhayibhili balemuka bona sekusikhathi sokwenza iqiniso laziwe. Ngomnyaka loyo, bathoma ukukhipha umagazini we-Sithalasokulinda Esazisa NgoMbuso KaJehova osaragela phambili ukhitjhwa nanamhlanjesi. Kwanje, sikhulumisana nabantu ngeBhayibhili eenarheni ezingaphezu kwama-230, ngeenlimi ezingaphezu kwama-600. Kuyathoma emlandweni bona ilwazi leqiniso lirhatjheke kangaka!\nNgemva kokufa kwakaKrestu, kwenzekani ngeqiniso leBhayibhili?\nKhuyini okwasisiza bona sifumane iqiniso eLizwini lakaZimu?

Badlumbana bonyana uZimu akanamsebenzi nabo. Kungenzeka bacabanga ukuthi uZimu ubekela abantu imithetho, bese abajezise nabayeqako. Ngapha iimfundiso ezinengi ezimamala zenza abanye baphethe ngokuthi uZimu unehliziyo embi nokuthi akukghonakali ukumthanda. Kuthi abanye bathi uZimu uthanda boke abantu kungakhathaliseki ukuthi benzani. Kodwana ukufunda kwakho iBhayibheli kukusizile wazwisisa iqiniso ngoJehova. Njenganje sebele wazi bona ithando bubuntu bakhe obuveleleko, nokuthi wanikela ngeNdodanakhe bona ibe sihlengo sakho. (Jwanisi 3:16; 1 Jwanisi 4:8) Kungenzeka bona wehlakalelwe zizinto ezinengi ezibuhlungu epilweni. Bese ugcine sele ungasazwisisi kuhle bona uJehova ukuthanda kangangani.\n3. Yini engasisiza sizwisise indlela uJehova asithanda ngayo?\n3 Nasizakuzwisisa ithando lakaJehova kufuze sithome ngokuzwisisa ukuthi uJehova nguye owasidalako. Ukuphilokhu sikuphiwe nguye. (Funda IRhubo 100:3-5.) Ngikho iBhayibheli nalibiza umuntu wokuthoma limbize “umsa kaZimu.” (Lukasi 3:38) UJesu yena wasifundisa ukuthi sibize uJehova ngokuthi “Baba wethu osezulwini.” (Matewu 6:9) Yeke uJehova unguBabethu, begodu usithanda ngendlela ubaba olungileko athanda ngayo abantwabakhe.\n4. (a) UJehova unguBaba onjani? (b) Esihlokwenesi nakesilandelako sizokucoca ngani?\n4 Ebantwini abakhuliswa bobaba abakhahlamezako, kubudisi ukuzwisisa ukuthi umuntu ongubaba angaba nethando. UJehova akabaphathi njalo abantwana bakhe nangelanga lomhlolo. Akakho ubaba ongasiphatha kuhle njengaye. (IRhubo 27:10) Usithanda khulu begodu usitlhogomela ngeendlela ezinengi. Nasingalizwa ithando uJehova analo ngathi, nathi sizomthanda kwamanikelela. (Jakopo 4:8) Kilesi sihloko sizokudemba iindlela ezine uJehova asitjengisa ngazo bona uyasithanda. Bese kuthi kesilandelako kube neendlela ezine thina esingatjengisa ngazo ukuthi siyamthanda uJehova.\nUJEHOVA UNETHANDO BEGODU UYAPHANA\n5. UZimu ubapheni abantu boke?\n5 Ngesikhathi umpostoli uPowula ase-Athene eGrisi, wayelela bona bekunabosingazimu abanengi, wayelela nokuthi abantu bakhona bakholelwa ukuthi abosingazimaba babapha ukuphila. Yeke wabatjela bona ‘uZimu ubumbe iphasi nakho koke okukilo.’ Nakaragako wathi: “Nguye opha koke okuphilako ipilo, umphefumulo nezinto zoke.” (IzEnzo 17:24, 25, 28) UJehova usipha koke esikutlhogako bona siphile nokuthi sithabele ukuphila. Akhucabange ngezinye izinto asiphe zona ngebanga lokuthi uyasithanda.\n6. Likhaya elinjani uJehova asiphe lona? (Qala isithombe esisekuthomeni.)\n6 Ngokwesibonelo, uJehova wasenzela iphasi elihle kwamambala. (IRhubo 115:15, 16) Kiwo woke amaplanethi awadalile, nakuliphasi lona likhetheke kwamanikelela. Abosiyazi bahlolisise umkayi bathola amaplanethi amanengi, kodwana bekube ngalesi isikhathi abakabi ukufumana iplanethi enakho koke umuntu akutlhogako bona aphile. UJehova usiphe koke esikutlhogako bona siphile, bewasihlobisela nephaseli laba lihle, laba yindawo ephephileko esikuthabelako ukuhlala kiyo. (Isaya 45:18) Nasicabanga ngekhaya uBabethu uJehova asiphe lona, siyayizwa indlela asithanda ngayo.—Funda uJobho 38:4, 7 neRhubo 8:3-5.\n7. Indlela uJehova asibumbe ngayo itjengisa njani ukuthi uyasithanda?\n7 Enye indlela uJehova asitjengisa ngayo ukuthi uyasithanda kukuthi asibumbe sibe nekghono lokumlingisa. (Genesisi 1: 27) Lokhu kutjho ukuthi siyalizwa ithando asithanda ngalo bese nathi senze izenzo ezitjengisa bona siyamthanda. UJehova wazi kuhle bona lokho kuyasithabisa. Ngaphezu kwakho koke, abantwana bayathaba nabazi ukuthi ababelethi babo bayabathanda. Ungalibali ukuthi noJesu wasifundisa ukuthi sizokuthaba kwamambala nasitjhidelene noBabethu uJehova. (Matewu 5:3) ‘Usinjingisa ngakho koke’ esikuthabelako. Kusepepeneneni ukuthi uyaphana nokuthi usithanda khulu.—1 Thimothi 6:17; IRhubo 145:16.\n8. Kubayini sifuna uJehova asifundise?\n8 Abobaba bayabathanda abantwababo begodu abafuni bona bakhohliswe. Kodwana ababelethi abanengi namhlanjesi abakhambisani nombono weBhayibheli omalungana nokulungileko nokungakalungi. Yeke abakghoni ukufundisa abantwababo isimilo. Bese lokho, kanengi kwenze umndeni ungathabi bewuhlangahlangane. (IzAga 14:12) Kodwana indlela uJehova abafundisa ngayo abantwabakhe izidlula zoke. Ngikho iBhayibheli lithi ‘unguZimu othembekileko.’ (IRhubo 31:6; [31:5 NW]) Uyakuthabela ukusifundisa iqiniso asifundise nokuthi simlotjhe njani. Usifundisa nokuphila bhedere. (Funda IRhubo 43:3.) Alo ungathi yini le uJehova asifundisa yona etjengisa ukuthi uyasithanda?\nAbobaba abamaKrestu balingisa uJehova ngokufundisa abantwababo iqiniso, babasize nangokuthi babe nesikhozi noBababo wezulwini (Qala iingaba 8-10)\n9, 10. (a) Kubayini kanti uJehova asitjela ngaye? (b) Yini asifundisa yona ngehloswakhe, nangathi?\n9 Kokuthoma nje, uJehova usitjela ngaye ngokwakhe. Ufuna ukuthi simazi. (Jakopo 4:8) Ngikho asitjela bona ibizo lakhe ngubani. Kuhlekuhle, ibizo lakheli livela iinkhathi ezinengi ukudlula nanyana ngiliphi ibizo eliseBhayibhelini. Abuye asitjele nokuthi umuMuntu onjani. Bese kuthi nasiqala indalwakhe, sivele sibone ukuthi uJehova unamandla begodu uhlakaniphile. (Roma 1:20) Nasitjhinga eBhayibhelini khona sibona indlela agweba ngayo, sibone nendlela asithanda ngayo. Njengombana siraga nokwazi ubuntu obuhle bakaJehova, sizizwa sitjhidelana naye.\nNjengombana siraga nokwazi ubuntu obuhle bakaJehova, sizizwa sitjhidelene naye\n10 UJehova usifundisa nangehloswakhe. Asitjele nokuthi simalungu womndenakhe. Uyasivezela bona yini ayilindele kithi khona sizokusebenza ngokuthula namanye amalungu womndeni lo. IBhayibheli likubeka emtarini ukuthi uZimu khenge asibumbele ukuthi sizilawule. (Joromiya 10:23) UJehova ukwazi kuhle nje okusilungeleko. Nasifuna ukuphila ngokuthula sithabile, ayikho enye indlela ngaphandle kokuthi sivumele uJehova asilawule. UJehova usifundise amaqiniso aqakathekileko la ngombana asithanda.\n11. UBabethu onethando usitjeleni ngengomuso?\n11 Ubaba obathandako abantwabakhe uyacabanga ngengomuso labo. Angithi phela ufuna baphumelele epilweni. Kuyadanisa ukwazi ukuthi abantu abanengi namhlanjesi batshwenyekile ngengomuso. Inengi limotjha isikhathi salo lisebenzela izinto ezingekhe zahlala zikhona. (IRhubo 90:10) Siyathaba thina ngombana uBabethu uJehova usifundise ukuthi siyiphila njani ipilo encono namhlanjesi. Wabuye wasithembisa nengomuso elihle nelikarisako!\nUJEHOVA UHLAHLELA ABANTWABAKHE INDLELA, BEKABAKHALIME\n12. UJehova wenzani nakalinga ukurhelebha uKayini noBharurhu?\n12 UJehova uthe angabona ukuthi uKayini ukhasela eziko, walinga ukumsiza ngokumbuza ukuthi, “Usilingwe yini? Kanti nawenza okuhle uzakhe umomotheke na?” (Genesisi 4:6, 7) UKayini ngekanakhe yesirhwarhwa, akhenge alamukele isizo lakaJehova, yeke kwafuze aqalane nemiphumela yalokho akwenzileko. (Genesisi 4:11-13) UJehova godu walemuka bona indlela uBharurhu enza ngayo izinto beyimtjhiya aphelelwe mamandla begodu adanile. UJehova wamtjela-ke ukuthi indlelakhe yokucabanga ayikalungi, wamtjela nokuthi kufuze enze izinto ngenye indlela. UBharurhu yena-ke walalela isiyalo sakaJehova, ngambala wasinda.—Joromiya 45:2-5.\n13. Abantu bakaZimu bafundani ebudisini abahlangabezene nabo?\n13 UJehova usikhalima bekasinqophise ngombana asithanda. (Hebheru 12:6) EBhayibhelini sifunda ngeenceku zakaJehova ezathembekako, uJehova wazibandula zaba babantu abancono. Ngokwesibonelo, uJosefa, uMosi, noDavida baqalana neenkhathi ezibudisi tle. Kibo boke ubudisobo uJehova gade anabo. Izinto abazifundako njengombana baqalene nobudisi nje zabasiza lokha uJehova nakabaphathisa umthwalo. Nasifunda iBhayibheli bese sihlangane nemilando le sibone nendlela asekela nabandula ngayo abantu bakhe, sivele sibone ukuthi uJehova uyasithanda.—Funda IzAga 3:11, 12.\n14. Nasenze imitjhapho uJehova usitjengisa njani ukuthi uyasithanda?\n14 Ngitjho nanyana senza imitjhapho, uJehova uhlala asithanda. Nasingalungisa kilokho asikhalime kikho, uzosilibalela ngombana yena “uyathethelela nokuthethelela.” (Isaya 55:7) Kutjho ukuthini-ke lokho? Indlela uDavida akhuluma ngayo ngokulibalela kwakaJehova itjengisa bona ngambala sinoBaba unomusa, “Yena olibalela woke amacalakho, elaphe zoke izifo zakho, okuhlenga uphephe emgodini wokufa, akubusise ngokwethembeka nangomusa. Njengepumalanga idedelene netjingalanga, ngokunjalo ususa iimphambeko zethu kithi.” (IRhubo 103:3, 4, 12) UJehova usikhalima ngeendlela ezahlukeneko. Nakube kufuze ulungise, uyarhaba na ekulungiseni imitjhaphwakho? Okufuze uhlale ukukhumbula kukuthi uJehova usikhalima ngombana asithanda.—IRhubo 30:6; [30:5 NW].\n15. Ngiyiphi enye indlela uJehova asitjengisa ngayo ukuthi uyasithanda?\n15 Ubaba onethando uyawuvikela umndenakhe. Phela ngikho lokho uBabethu uJehova akwenzako kithi. Umrhubi nakakhuluma ngoJehova uthi, “welusa amaphilo wabathembekileko bakhe, abahlenge esandleni seenkhohlakali.” (IRhubo 97:10) Akhucabange ngendlela olivala msinyana ngakho ilihlo lakho nawubona ngasuthi kunento efuna ukukuphandla. Lokho ukwenza ngombana amehlwakho aqakathekile kuwe. UJehova wenza njalo nakafuna ukukuvikela, ngombana nawe uqakathekile kuye.—Funda uZakariya 2:8.\nUJehova uyarhaba nakufuze avikele abantu bakhe ngombana baqakathekile kuye\n16, 17. UJehova wabavikela njani abantu bakhe bekadeni? Ukwenza njani lokho namhlanjesi?\n16 Enye indlela uJehova ebekavikela ngayo abantu bakhe bekadeni usayisebenzisa nanje, usebenzisa iingilozi zakhe. (IRhubo 91:11) Ingilozi yinye kwaphela yabulala amajoni wama-Asiriya ayi-185 000 ngobusuku bunye, yasindisa abantu bakaZimu. (2 AmaKhosi 19:35) Ngesikhathi samaKrestu wokuthoma iingilozi zasindisa uPitrosi, uPowula nabanye etrongweni. (IzEnzo 5:18-20; 12:6-11) Kungasikade, kenye inarha ye-Afrika khekwaba nepi embi khulu. Inarha leyo yayihlangahlangene tle ngebanga lepi, ukweba, ukukatwa, nokubulawa kwabantu. Ngitjho nanyana kungekho namunye kubafowethu owafako, abanengi baloba koke ebebanakho. Kodwana boke njalo balizwa ithando lakaJehova, gade bazi ukuthi bekabatlhogomela. Bebathabile emitlhagweni ebebaqalane nayo. Kwathi ngesikhathi isikhambeli semzimkhulu sibavakatjhele, salotjhisa abazalwana nabodade ngokubabuza bona bavuke njani, baphendula bathi: “Sithokoza uJehova ngokuthi sivuke kuhle!”\n17 Iye khona abanye abakhulekeli bakaJehova abanjengoStefani bayabulawa ngebanga lokuthi bathembekile kuZimu. UJehova akakuvimbeli ngasosoke isikhathi bona kungenzeki lokho. Kodwana uyabavikela abantu bakhe njengesiqhema, uyabayelelisa ngeendlela ezihlukahlukeneko uSathana azisebenzisako bona abagalaje. (Efesu 6:10-12) Iinyeleliswezi sizifumana eBhayibhelini neencwadini ezivela ehlanganweni kaJehova. Ngokwesibonelo, sifundiswa ngengozi ye-inthanethi, yokuthanda imali, yokubukela amamuvi wabantu abenza izinto ezikhohlakeleko newokulwa, kunye neencwadi namkha imidlalo ekhohlakeleko. Njenganje kukhanya khulu ukuthi uJehova uyasithanda nokuthi ufuna ukusivikela.\nKULILUNGELO ELIKHULU UKUTHANDWA NGUZIMU\n18. Akhutjho-ke bona uzizwa njani ngendlela uJehova akuthanda ngayo?\n18 UMosi nakacabanga ngaso soke isikhathi ebekalotjha ngaso uJehova, waqiniseka ukuthi uJehova uyamthanda. Wathi: “Ekuseni yewusisuthise ngokwethembeka kwakho ukuze sithabe, sename emalangenethu woke.” (IRhubo 90:14) Kusibusiso ukuthi sizwisise besizwe indlela uJehova asithanda ngayo. Kulilungelo kithi ukuthandwa nguJehova! Nasinje sizizwa njengompostoli uJwanisi owathi: “Qalani bona lingangani ithando uBaba asiphe lona!”—1 Jwanisi 3:1.\nUJehova uyasithanda: UJehova uyasithanda ngombana sibantwabakhe. Zinengi-ke izinto azenzele umndenakhe ukuwutjengisa bona uyawuthanda\nUJehova uyasikhalima: UJehova uyasifundisa, asikhalime, abe asilungise. Uyasisiza bona senze okulungileko. UJehova nakabona okuthileko okutlhoga ukulungiswa kithi, uyasitjela ngakho asisize sibone ukuthi yini esingayenza, ukwenzela bonyana sihlale sitjhidelane naye


UJesu Nababelethi Bakhe Babalekela EGibhide | Ipilo KaJesu\nBabalekela Umbusi Omumbi\nNABABELETHI BAKHE BABALEKELA EGIBHIDE\nUJOSEFA UFUDUSELA UMNDENAKHE ENAZARETHA\nUJosefa uvusa uMariya ngombana umphathele iindaba ezirhabako. Ingilozi kaJehova isand’ ukubonakala kuye ebhudangweni, ithi: “Vuka, uthathe umntwana nonina niye eGibhide, nihlale lapho bekube kulapho nginitjela ukuthi nibuye, ngombana uHerode uzokuzuma umntwana bona ambulale.”—Matewu 2:13.\nNgaphandle kokuriyada, uJosefa, uMariya nendodanabo babaleka ngomnyama. Babaleke ngesikhathi esifaneleko, ngombana uHerode uzwa ukuthi amadoda athukula ngeenkwekwezi amkhohlisile. Phela bekawatjele ukuthi abuye azombikela. Kodwana wona avele azikhambela angakambikeli litho. Nje-ke uHerode ubhoka ngobukhali. Njengombana asafuna ukubulala uJesu, ukhupha umyalo wokuthi kubulawe boke abesana abaneminyaka emibili kuya phasi eBhetlehema neendaweni eziyibhodileko. Usekela ukubala kwakhe iminyaka yabesana ekufuze babulawe kilokho akuzwe emadodeni athukula ngeenkwekwezi avela ePumalanga.\nUkurhayilwa kwabo boke abesana yinto ehlahlathelisa umzimba! Asazi ukuthi bangaki abesanyana ababulawako, kodwana isililo nokurhahlawula kwabomma abahlongakalelweko kuzalisa isiphorofido seBhayibheli esanikelwa nguJoromiya, umphorofidi kaZimu.—Joromiya 31:15.\nKwenzeka koke lokhu, uJosefa nomndenakhe babalekele eGibhide, begodu basahlala khona. Kodwana ngobunye ubusuku ingilozi kaJehova ibonakala kuJosefa ngebhudango godu. Ingilozi ithi, “Vuka uthathe umntwana nonina niye enarheni yakwa-Israyeli, ngombana labo egade bafuna ukumbulala sebahlongakele.” (Matewu 2:20) Yeke uJosefa uphetha ngokuthi umndenakhe sewungabuyela enarheni yekhabo. Ngalokho kuzaliseka esinye isiphorofido seBhayibheli —iNdodana kaZimu ibizwa bona iphume eGibhide.—Hosiya 11:1.\nKubonakala ngasuthi uJosefa ufuna bona umndenakhe uhlale eJudiya, mhlamunye eduze nedorobho leBhetlehema, lapho ebebahlala khona ngaphambi kokubalekela eGibhide. Kodwana uzwa ukuthi indodana kaHerode embi u-Arikhilawosi seyiyikosi yeJudiya. Nje-ke, uZimu ulemukisa uJosefa asebenzisa elinye ibhudango. Ngalokho uJosefa nomndenakhe batjhinga etlhagwini begodu bahlala edorobheni leNazaretha esifundeni seGalile, kude nekaba yepilo yekolo yobuJuda. UJesu ukhulela emphakathini lo, okuzalisa esinye isiphorofido esithi: “Uzokubizwa ngokobana mNazaretha.”—Matewu 2:23.\nLokha amadoda athukula ngeenkwekwezi angabuyeli kiyo, iKosi uHerode yenzani, begodu uJesu osesemncani uvikelwa njani?\nNababuya eGibhide, kubayini uJosefa nomndenakhe bangabuyeli eBhetlehema?\nNgiziphi iimphorofido zeBhayibheli ezizaliseka hlangana nesikhathesi?\nBekatjho ukuthini uJoromiya nakakhuluma ngoRarheli olilela abantwabakhe abahlongakeleko?

Kuza amalanga, lapho ngizokwenza khona isivumelwano esitjha nendlu ka-Israyeli kunye nendlu kaJuda,’ kutjho uJehova. 9 Angekhe sibe njengesivumelwano engasenza nabokhokho babo ngelanga engabamba ngalo isandla sabo, bona ngibakhuphe enarheni yeGibhide, ngombana akhenge bahlale esivumelwaneni sami, yeke ngalisa ukubatjheja,’ kutjho uJehova. 10 “ ‘Ngombana ngilesi isivumelwano engizosenza nendlu ka-Israyeli ngemva kwamalanga lawo,’ kutjho uJehova. ‘Ngizokufaka imithethwami emkhumbulwenabo, begodu ngizoyitlola neenhliziyweni zabo. Ngizokuba nguZimabo, bona bazokuba babantu bami. 11 “ ‘Akakho kibo ozokuthi esakhamuzini sekhabo nakumfowabo: “Kufuze wazi uJehova!” Ngombana boke bazongazi, ukusukela komncani ukuya komkhulu kibo. 12 Ngombana ngizokuba nesirhawu ezenzweni zabo zokungalungi, begodu angekhe ngisazikhumbula izono zabo.’ ” 13 Nakathi “isivumelwano esitjha,” wenze sakade sangasaba nomsebenzi. Nje-ke lokho okungasenamsebenzi nokuluphalako kuseduze nokutjhabalala.


Ukukhulekela Okwamukelwa NguZimu - I-Web Site YaboFakazi BakaJehova Esemthethweni\nUkukhulekela Okwamukelwa NguZimu\nZoke iinkolo ziyamthabisa uZimu na?\nSingayibona njani ikolo yeqiniso?\nBobani abakhulekeli bakaZimu bamambala ephasini namhlanjesi?\nUJEHOVA UZIMU uyasitjheja begodu ufuna bona sizuze esinqophisweni sakhe sethando. Nengabe simkhulekela ngendlela ererhe, sizokuthaba begodu sizokubalekela imiraro eminengi ekuphileni. Sizokufumana isibusiso nerhelebho lakhe. (Isaya 48:17) Namtjhana kunjalo, kunamakhulu weenkolo athi afundisa iqiniso ngoZimu. Nokho, zihluke khulu ngeemfundiso zazo ezimalungana nokobana ngubani uZimu begodu khuyini ayilindele kithi.\n2 Ungayazi njani indlela ererhe yokukhulekela uJehova? Akutlhogeki bona ufunde begodu umadanise iimfundiso zezinye iinkolo ezinengi. Utlhoga ukufunda kwaphela lokho kwamambala okufundiswa yiBhayibhili malungana nokukhulekela kweqiniso. Isibonelo: Eenarheni ezinengi, kunomraro wemali yomgunyathi. Nengabe bewunikelwe umberego wokuhlunga imali yomgunyathi, gade uzowenza njani umberego loyo? Ngokukhumbula yoke iimhlobo yemali yomgunyathi? Awa. Isikhathi esinengi gade uzosiberegisela ukufunda ngemali yamambala. Ngemva kobana wazi bona imali yamambala injani ungakghona ukubona nemali yomgunyathi. Ngokufanako, lokha nasifunda ngendlela esingabona ngayo ikolo yeqiniso singakghona ukubona iinkolo zamala.\n3 Kuqakathekile bona sikhulekele uJehova ngendlela ayamukelako. Abantu abanengi bakholelwa bona zoke iinkolo zithabisa uZimu, kodwana iBhayibhili ayikufundisi lokho. Akukaneli bona umuntu azibize bonyana mKrestu kwaphela. UJesu wathi: “Ingasiwoke othi kimi: ‘Kosi, Kosi’ ozangena embusweni wezulwini, kodwana ngilabo bodwa abenza okufunwa nguBaba osezulwini.” Nasifuna ukwamukelwa nguZimu, kufuze sifunde lokho uZimu akufunako kithi begodu sikwenze. UJesu wabiza labo abangenzi intando kaZimu bona ‘ziinkhohlakali!’ (Matewu 7:21-23) Njengemali yomgunyathi, ikolo yamala ayirhelebhi ngalitho. Okumbi khulu, ikolo enjalo iyingozi.\n4 UJehova unikela woke umuntu ephasini ithuba lokufumana ukuphila okungapheliko. Nasifuna ukufumana ukuphila okungapheliko eParadeyisini, kufuze sikhulekele uZimu ngendlela efaneleko begodu siphile ngendlela eyamukelekako kuye. Ngokudanisako, abanengi bayabhala ukwenza lokho. Ngikho uJesu athi: “Ngenani ngesango elincancani, ngombana isango eliya [ekubhujisweni] libanzi, nendlela eya khona ibulula, banengi abakhamba ngayo. Kodwana isango eliya ekuphileni lincancani, nendlela eya khona ibukhuni, balilitjhwana abantu abayifumanako.” (Matewu 7:13, 14) Ikolo yeqiniso ingakudosela ekuphileni okungapheliko. Ikolo yamala ingakudosela ekutjhatjalalisweni. UJehova akafuni namunye umuntu bona atjhatjalaliswe, begodu ngikho anikela abantu boke ithuba lokobana bafunde ngaye. (2 KaPitrosi 3:9) Kwamambala, indlela esikhulekela ngayo uZimu itjho ukuphila namtjhana ukufa kithi.\nINDLELA ESINGABONA NGAYO IKOLO YEQINISO\n5 ‘Indlela eya ekuphileni’ singayifumana njani? UJesu wathi ikolo yeqiniso izokubonakala ngendlela abantu abakiyo abaphila ngayo. Wathi: “Nizabazi ngabakwenzako. Umuthi omuhle uthela iinthelo ezihle.” (Matewu 7:16, 17) Ngamanye amezwi, labo abaphila ngokuvumelana nekolo yeqiniso bazokubonakala ngeenkolelo zabo begodu nangokuziphatha kwabo. Namtjhana banesono begodu benza imitjhapho, abakhulekeli beqiniso njengesiqhema bafuna ukwenza intando kaZimu. Akhe sicabangele iingcenye ezisithandathu esingabona ngazo ikolo yeqiniso.\nLABO ABAKHULEKELA UZIMU WEQINISO\nbasekela iimfundiso zabo eBhayibhilini\nbakhulekela uJehova kwaphela begodu benza ibizo lakhe laziwe\nbatjengisa ithando lamambala komunye nomunye\nbamukela uJesu njengaloyo uZimu amberegisa bona asiphuluse\nabasiyo ingcenye yephasi\nbatjhumayela bona uMbuso kaZimu kuphela kwethemba lesintu\n6Iinceku zakaZimu zisekela iimfundiso zazo eBhayibhilini. IBhayibhili ngokwayo ithi: ‘Koke okusemtlolweni ocwengileko kwaba khona ngokufundzelelwa ngomoya kaZimu, yeke kulungele ukufundisa nokukhalima nokunqophisa imitjhapho, nokulaya koke malungana nokulunga, khona umuntu wakaZimu azafanela, abe ngolungele ukwenza yoke imisebenzi emihle.’ (2 KuThimothi 3:16, 17) Umpostoli uPowula watlolela amaKrestu agade anaye: “Nanimukela ilizwi lakaZimu enalizwa kithapha, nalamukela, ingasi njengelizwi lomuntu nje kodwana njengombana linjalo lilizwi lakaZimu.” (1 KwebeTesalonika 2:13) Nokho, iinkolelo nemikghwa yekolo yeqiniso ayikasekelwa emibonweni yabantu namtjhana yamasiko. Isekelwe eLizwini lakaZimu elifundzelelweko, iBhayibhili.\n7 UJesu Krestu wasibekela isibonelo esihle ngokusekela iimfundiso zakhe eLizwini lakaZimu. Nakathandaza kuYise wezulwini wathi: “Ilizwi lakho liliqiniso.” (Jwanisi 17:17) UJesu gade akholelwa eLizwini lakaZimu, begodu koke egade akufundisa bekuvumelana neMitlolo. UJesu bekathanda ukuthi: “Imitlolo ecwengileko ithi.” (Matewu 4:4, 7, 10) Ngemva kwalokho uJesu udzubhula umtlolo. Ngokufanako, abantu bakaZimu namhlanjesi abafundisi iimbono yabo. Bakholelwa bona iBhayibhili liLizwi lakaZimu, begodu basekela ngokuqinileko iimfundiso zabo kilokho ekutjhoko.\n8Labo abasekolweni yeqiniso bakhulekela uJehova kwaphela begodu benza ibizo lakhe laziwe. UJesu wathi: “Khothamela iKosi [uJehova] uZimu wakho ulotjhe yona kwaphela.” (Matewu 4:10) Nokho, iinceku zakaZimu zikhulekela yena kwaphela uJehova. Ukukhulekela okunjalo kuhlanganisa ukutjela abantu bona ngubani ibizo lakaZimu lamambala begodu unjani. AmaRhalani 83:18 athi: “Wena ibizo lakho elinguJehova, wena wedwa ungoPhakemeko ephasini loke.” UJesu ubeka isibonelo ekurhelebheni abanye bazi uZimu, njengombana atjho emthandazweni: “Ngikwazisile ebantwini onginikele bona ephasini.” (Jwanisi 17:6) Ngokufanako, abakhulekeli beqiniso namhlanjesi bafundisa abanye ngebizo lakaZimu, ngomnqopho wakhe, nangobuntu bakhe.\n9Abantu bakaZimu batjengisana ithando lamambala, elingasimarhamaru. UJesu wathi: “Nanithandanako, boke abantu bazakwazi bona nibafundi bami.” (Jwanisi 13:35) AmaKrestu wangaphambili aba nethando elinjalo komunye nomunye. Ithando elisekelwe emilayweni yeBhayibhili lihlula ubuhlanga, zomphakathi, ubutjhaba begodu lenza abantu batjhidelane babe netjhebiswano elingekhe laphela lobuzalwana bamambala. (KwebeKholose 3:14) Amalungu wekolo yamala akanalo ithando elinjalo lobuzalwana. Sikwazi njani lokho? Abulalana wodwa ngebanga lobutjhaba namtjhana lobuhlanga. AmaKrestu weqiniso akaphathi iinkhali bona abulale amaKrestu akhonza nawo namtjhana omunye umuntu. IBhayibhili ithi: “Ngiwo-ke lo umahluko hlangana nabantwana bakaZimu nebakaSathana: Loyo ongenzi okulungileko, nongathandiko umzalwane wakhe, akasuye umntwana kaZimu.…Kufanele sithandane, singafani noKayini ogade ingewakaSathana. Wabulala umfowabo uAbela.”—1 KaJwanisi 3:10-12; 4:20, 21.\n10 Kuliqiniso, ithando lamambala litjho okungaphezu kokungabulali abanye. AmaKrestu weqiniso ngokungabi marhamaru aberegisa isikhathi sawo, amandla, nezinto eziphathekako bona arhelebhe begodu akhuthazane. (KumaHebheru 10:24, 25) Ayarhelebhana ngeenkhathi zokugandeleleka, begodu aphathana ngokuthembeka. Eqinisweni, ekuphileni kwawo aberegisa isiluleko seBhayibhili esithi, “asenze okulungileko kibo boke.”—KwebeGalatiya 6:10.\n11AmaKrestu weqiniso amukela uJesu Krestu njengaloyo uZimu amberegisako bona asiphuluse. IBhayibhili ithi: “Ayikho iphuluso ngomunye, alikho godu elinye ibizo ezulwini nephasini esinikelwe lona bona siphuluswe ngalo.” (IZenzo 4:12) Njengombana sifundile eSahlukweni-5, uJesu wanikela ngepilo yakhe njengesihlengo sabantu abalalelako. (Matewu 20:28) Ngaphezu kwalokho, uJesu ukhethwe nguZimu bona abe yiKosi eMbusweni wezulwini ozokubusa ephasini loke. UZimu ufuna bona silalele uJesu begodu siberegise iimfundiso zakhe nengabe sifuna ukuphila okungapheliko. Ngikho iBhayibhili ithi: “Loyo okholwako eNdodaneni unokuphila okungapheliko; kodwana loyo ongakholwako eNdodaneni ngekhe akubone ukuphila.”—Jwanisi 3:36.\n12Abakhulekeli beqiniso abasiyo ingcenye yephasi. Lokha nekufanele agwetjwe phambi kombusi weRoma, uPilato, uJesu wathi: “Umbuso wami awusiwo wephaseli.” (Jwanisi 18:36) Namtjhana bahlala kiyiphi inarha, abalandeli bakaJesu bayazithoba eMbusweni wakhe wezulwini begodu ngokuzimisela abazibandakanyi eendabeni zombanganarha zephaseli. Abazibandakanyi eempikiswaneni zephaseli. Nokho, abakhulekeli bakaJehova abazibandakanyi kilokho abanye abakhetha ukukwenza ngokuhlanganyela kwezombanganarha, namtjhana ukungenela amakhetho. Ngaphezu kwalokho abakhulekeli bakaZimu bamambala abazibandakanyi kwezombanganarha, kodwana bathobela umthetho. Kubayini benza njalo? Kungombana iLizwi lakaZimu libalayela bona ‘bathobele’ aborhulumende “abaphetheko” ababekwe nguZimu. (KwebeRoma 13:1) Nekunepikiswano kilokho okufunwa nguZimu nakilokho okufunwa ngezombanganarha, abakhulekeli beqiniso balandela isibonelo sabapostoli abathi: ‘[Kufanele] bona simhloniphe uZimu kunabantu.’—IZenzo 5:29; Markosi 12:17.\n13Abalandeli bakaJesu beqiniso batjhumayela bona uMbuso kaZimu kuphela kwethemba lesintu. UJesu wabikezela: “Iindaba ezimnandi ngombuso zizatjhunyayelwa ephasini loke, kube bufakazi eentjhabeni zoke.” (Matewu 24:14) Kunokobana bakhuthaze abantu bona bathembele kubabusi abababantu bona bararulule imiraro yabo, abalandeli bakaJesu Krestu batjhumayela ngoMbuso kaZimu wezulwini njengokungiwo kwaphela olithemba lesintu. (AmaRhalani 146:3) UJesu wasifundisa bona sithandazele urhulumende ongekhe waphela, lokha nekathi: “Umbuso wakho awuze; intando yakho ayenziwe ephasinapha njengezulwini.” (Matewu 6:10) ILizwi lakaZimu labikezela bona uMbuso wezulwini “uzokusila yoke iimbuso le [ekhona nje], begodu wona uzokuhlala ngokungapheliko.”—Danyela 2:44.\n14 Ngokwalokho esesicoce ngakho, zibuze: ‘Ngisiphi isiqhema sekolo esisekela zoke iimfundiso zaso eBhayibhilini begodu senze ibizo lakaJehova laziwe? Ngisiphi isiqhema esitjengisa ithando elifunwa nguZimu, esinekholo kuJesu, esingasiyo ingcenye yephasi, begodu esitjhumayela bona uMbuso kaZimu ngiwo kwaphela olithemba lesintu? Kizo zoke iinqhema zeenkolo ezisephasini, ngisiphi esihlangabezana nazo zoke iimfunekwezi?’ Eqinisweni, isiqhema sekolwesi, boFakazi bakaJehova.—Isaya 43:10-12.\nNgokukhonza nabantu bakaJehova, uzokufumana okunengi ukudlula lokho egade kungakulahlekela\nKHUYINI OZOYENZA WENA?\n15 Newuzakuthabisa uZimu akukaneli ukukholelwa bona ukhona kwaphela. Eqinisweni, iBhayibhili ithi, namadimoni akholelwa bona uZimu ukhona. (KaJakobosi 2:19) Kuyakhanya bona akenzi intando kaZimu begodu akamukelwa nguye. Bona samukelwe nguZimu, akufuneki sikholelwe ekubeni khona kwakhe kwaphela, kodwana kufuze senze nentando yakhe. Kufuze sihlukane nekolo yamala samukele ikolo yeqiniso.\n16 Umpostoli uPowula watjengisa bona akufuneki sizibandakanye ekukhulekeleni kwamala. Watlola bunje: “‘Phumani niphele hlangana nabo, kutjho uJehova, ‘ningakunamathi okusilapheleko’, ‘ngizanamukela.’” (2 KwebeKorinte 6:17; Isaya 52:11) Ngalokho, amaKrestu weqiniso abalekela koke ukukhulekela kwamala.\n17 IBhayibhili itjengisa bona yoke iimhlobo eminengi yekolo yamala iyingcenye ‘yeBhabhiloni Yodumo.’* (ISambulo 17:5) Ibizwelo lisikhumbuza ngomuzi weBhabhiloni lekadeni, lapho ikolo yamala yathoma khona ngemva kweKukhulamungu wangesikhathi sakaNuwa. Iimfundiso ezinengi nemikghwa ejayelekileko nje ekolweni yamala yathoma kade eBhabhiloni. Isibonelo, abantu beBhabhiloni bebakhulekela uziquntathu namtjhana abantu abathathu kuzimu oyedwa. Namhlanjesi, ifundiso ejayelekileko yeenkolo ezinengi, nguZiquntathu. Kodwana iBhayibhili ifundisa ngokukhanyako bona kunoZimu oyedwa weqiniso, uJehova, begodu uJesu Krestu yiNdodanakhe. (Jwanisi 17:3) Abantu beBhabhiloni bakholelwa bona abantu banomphefumulo ongafiko otjhiya umzimba ngemva kokuhlongakala nokobana bayatlhaga endaweni yokuhlunguphazwa. Namhlanjesi, ikolelo yokungafi komphefumulo namtjhana yomoya bona ungathlaga esirhogweni somlilo ifundiswa ziinkolo ezinengi.\n18 Njengombana ukukhulekela kweBhabhiloni lendulo kwarhatjheka ephasini loke, iBhabhiloni Yodumo yanje ingabizwa bona mbuso wephasi wekolo yamala. UZimu wabikezela bona umbuso wekolo yamala lo, msinyana uzokutjhatjalaliswa. (ISambulo 18:8) Uyabona kubayini kuqakathekile bona uzihlukanise kikho koke ukukhulekela kweBhabhiloni Yodumo? UJehova uZimu ufuna bona ‘uphume uphele’ msinyana isikhathi sisesekhona.—ISambulo 18:4.\n19 Njengomphumela wesiqunto sakho sokutjhiya ikolo yamala, abanye bangakhetha ukungasazihlanganisi nawe. Ngokukhonza nabantu bakaJehova, uzokufumana okunengi ukudlula lokho egade kungakulahlekela. Njengabafundi bakaJesu bangaphambili abatjhiya ezinye izinto bona bamlandele, ngokukhamba kwesikhathi uzokuba nabanakwenu nabodadwenu abanengi abangokomoya. Uzokuba yingcenye yomndeni omkhulu wephasi loke onamabhiliyoni wamaKrestu weqiniso, azokutjengisa ithando lamambala. Begodu uzokuba nethemba elihle lokuphila okungapheliko “esikhathi esizako.” (Markosi 10:28-30) Mhlamunye ngokukhamba kwesikhathi, labo abakulahlileko ngebanga leenkolelo zakho bazokufunda lokho okufundiswa yiBhayibhili begodu babe bakhulekeli bakaJehova.\n20 IBhayibhili ifundisa bona uZimu msinyana uzokutjhabalalisa boke ubujamo obumbi obusephasini begodu abujamiselele ngephasi elitjha elilungileko ngaphasi kokubusa koMbuso wakhe. (2 KaPitrosi 3:9, 13) Qala bona kuzokuba liphasi elihle kangangani lelo! Begodu ephasini elitjha lokulunga, kuzokuba nekolo eyodwa kwaphela, indlela eyodwa yokukhulekela kweqiniso. Akusikuhlakanipha na ngawe bona uthathe amagadango afunekako nje, uzibandakanye nabakhulekeli beqiniso?\nKunekolo eyodwa kwaphela yeqiniso.—Matewu 7:13, 14.\nIkolo yeqiniso ibonakala ngeemfundiso nemikghwa yayo.—Matewu 7:16, 17.\nAboFakazi bakaJehova basekukhulekeleni okumukelwa nguZimu.—Isaya 43:10.\n* Ukufumana imininingwana ezeleko malungana nokobana kubayini iBhabhiloni Yodumo ijamele ikolo yamala yombuso wephasi, qala Isithasiselo.\n1. Sizokuzuza njani nengabe sikhulekela uZimu ngendlela ererhe?\n2. Singayazi njani indlela ererhe yokukhulekela uJehova, begodu ngisiphi isibonelo esingasirhelebha bona sizwisise lokho?\n3. Ngokwamezwi kaJesu, khuyini okufuze siyenze nengabe sifuna ukwamukelwa nguZimu?\n4. Atjho ukuthini amezwi kaJesu malungana neendlela eembili, begodu indlela enye nenye idosela kuphi?\n5. Singababona njani labo abasekolweni yeqiniso?\n6, 7. Iinceku zakaZimu zinamuphi umbono ngeBhayibhili, begodu uJesu wazibekela siphi isibonelo malungana nalokhu?\n8. Khuyini okubandakanyekileko ekukhulekeleni uJehova?\n9, 10. Kungaziphi iindlela amaKrestu weqiniso atjengisana ngazo ithando?\n11. Kubayini kuqakathekile ukwamukela uJesu Krestu njengaloyo uZimu amberegisa bona asiphuluse?\n12. Kutjho ukuthini ukungabi yingcenye yephasi?\n13. Abalandeli bakaJesu beqiniso bawuqala njani uMbuso kaZimu, begodu ngalokho, ngiliphi igadango abalithathako?\n14. Ngisiphi isiqhema wena okholelwa bona sihlangabezana neemfuneko zokukhulekelwa kweqiniso?\n15. Khuyini uZimu akufunako ngaphezu kokukholelwa bona ukhona?\n16. Khuyini okufuze yenziwe ngokuzibandakanya ekolweni yamala?\n17, 18. Yini ‘iBhabhiloni Yodumo’ begodu kubayini kuqakathekile bona ‘uphume uphele’ kiyo?\n19. Khuyini ozokufumana ngokukhonza uJehova?\n20. Libaphatheleni ingomuso labo abasekolweni yeqiniso?


Ukuthokoza Ngesoni Esiphendukayo | Impilo KaJesu\nUkuthokoza Ngesoni Esiphendukayo\nUMZEKELISO WEMVU ELAHLEKILEYO LOWEMALI YESILIVA ELAHLEKILEYO\nIZINGILOSI EZULWINI ZIYATHOKOZA\nNgezikhathi ezitshiyeneyo phakathi kwenkonzo yakhe uJesu ukhulume ngokuthi kuqakathekile ukuthobeka. (ULukha 14:8-11) Uzimisele ukudinga abantu abathobekileyo abafisa ukukhonza uNkulunkulu. Abanye babo balokhu beyizoni ezaziwayo.\nAbaFarisi kanye lababhali babakhangelela phansi abantu abanjalo kodwa bananzelela ukuthi bayakuthanda ukuzwa lokhu uJesu akufundisayo. Bayamsola bathi: “Indoda le yamukela izoni njalo idla lazo.” (ULukha 15:2) AbaFarisi lababhali bazibona bengcono njalo baphatha abantukazana njengenhlabathi abayinyathelayo. Bababiza ngebala lesiHebheru elokweyisa elithi ‛am ha·’aʹrets elitsho ukuthi “abantu bomhlaba.”\nLanxa kunjalo uJesu uhlonipha abantu bonke njalo ubaphatha ngomusa futhi uyabazwela. Ngenxa yalokhu abanengi abangabayanga kanye labayizoni ezaziwayo bayakuthanda ukulalela uJesu efundisa. UJesu uzwa njani ngokusolwa ngabaFarisi lababhali ngendlela aphatha ngayo abantu laba futhi uthini ngakho?\nUlandisa umzekeliso ofanana lomunye ake awulandisa eKhaphenawume. (UMathewu 18:12-14) Emizekelisweni le emibili, abaFarisi kukhulunywa ngabo angani bayizimvu zikaNkulunkulu ezilungileyo njalo ezivikelekileyo emhlambini wakhe kodwa abantu abakhangelelwa phansi bavezwa njengabaphambukileyo labalahlekileyo. UJesu uthi:\n“Ngubani phakathi kwenu othi elezimvu ezingu-100 abeselahlekelwa ngeyodwa, ongeke atshiye ezingu-99 egangeni ayedinga elahlekileyo aze ayithole? Uzathi eseyitholile, ayetshathe ehlombe esethabile. Nxa efika ngekhaya, uyabuthanisa abangane bakhe labomakhelwane, athi kubo, ‘Thokozani lami ngoba sengiyitholile imvu yami ebilahlekile.’”—ULukha 15:4-6.\nUJesu utshoni? Uyachasisa athi: “Ngilitshela ukuthi lasezulwini kuzakuba lentokozo enkulu ngesoni esisodwa esiphendukayo, kulaleyo ebakhona ngenxa yabangu-99 abalungileyo okungadingakaliyo ukuthi baphenduke.”—ULukha 15:7.\nAbaFarisi bayamangala nxa uJesu ekhuluma ngokuphenduka. Bazibona belungile njalo babona kungelasizatho sokuthi baphenduke. Eminyakeni emilutshwana edlulileyo abanye babo basola uJesu ngokuthi wayesidla labathelisi lezoni yena wabaphendula wathi: “Kangilandanga ukuzobiza abalungileyo, ngalanda ukuzobiza izoni.” (UMakho 2:15-17) AbaFarisi laba abazibona belungile kabenzi kube lentokozo ezulwini ngenxa yokuthi kabasiboni isizatho sokuthi baphenduke. Kodwa kuba lentokozo ezulwini nxa izoni ziphenduka.\nUJesu uphinda alandise omunye umzekeliso otshengisa intokozo eba khona ezulwini nxa izoni ziphenduka.

Watjengisa njani bona ufuna ukuthabisa uJehova? Akhe sifunde okungeziweko ngaye.\nAbabelethi baka-Isaka bekungu-Abrahamu noSara. Bebahlala enarheni yeKanana, indawo yabantu abangamkhulekeli uJehova. Kodwana u-Abrahamu bekafuna indodanakhe itjhade nomfazi okhulekela uJehova. Ngalokho wathuma enye yeenceku zakhe, mhlamunye u-Eliyezeri, bona ayokufunela u-Isaka umfazi endaweni ekuthiwa yiHarana, lapho bekuhlala khona ezinye iinhlobo zaka-Abrahamu.\nURabega waya eKanana no-Eliyezeri wayokutjhada no-Isaka\nU-Eliyezeri wakhamba nezinye iinceku zaka-Abrahamu. Bekulikhambo elide khulu. Bakhamba namakamela alitjhumi athwele ukudla nezipho. U-Eliyezeri bekazokwazi njani bona ngimuphi umfazi azomkhethela u-Isaka? U-Eliyezeri nezinye iinceku nebafika eHarana, bajama emthonjeni ngombana bebazi bona msinyana abantu bazokuza bazokukha amanzi. Wathandaza kuJehova wathi: ‘Nengibawa intombi bona ingiphe amanzi bese ingipha wona begodu inikele namakamelami amanzi, ngizokwazi bona ngiyo leyo oyikhethileko.’\nNgemva kwalokho intombi enguRabega yafika emthonjeni. IBhayibheli ithi bekamuhle khulu. U-Eliyezeri wambawa amanzi, yena wathi: ‘Akunamraro. Ngizokupha amanzi begodu ngiphe namakamelakho.’ Cabanga! Amakamela omileko asela amanzi amanengi khulu, ngalokho uRabega kwatlhogeka abuyele kanengi emthonjeni. Uyambona esithombeni bona usebenza budisi kangangani?— U-Eliyezeri warareka ukubona indlela uJehova awuphendula ngayo umthandazwakhe.\nU-Eliyezeri wanikela uRabega izipho ezinengi ezihle. Wamema u-Eliyezeri nezinye iinceku bona bakhambe naye ekhabo. U-Eliyezeri wahlathulula bona kubayini u-Abrahamu amthumela lapho nokobana uJehova uwuphendule njani umthandazwakhe.

Abaphristi bavumile ukubhadela uJudasi iimpaparwana zesiliva izima-30 bona athengise uJesu. Nje-ke uJudasi udosa phambili isiqubuthu sabaphristi abakhulu nabaFarisi bayokufuna uJesu. Baphekelelwa siqhema samasotja weRoma ahlomileko nenduna yawo.\nUJesu nakamqothako esidlweni sePhasika, uJudasi utjhinge ngokunqophileko ebaphristini abakhulu. (Jwanisi 13:27) Beza boke basiqubuthu sabonogada babapristi abakhulu nesiqhema samasotja. Kungenzeka uJudasi uthome ngokubasa ekumbeni ephezulu lapho uJesu nabapostoli bebagidingela khona iPhasika. Kodwana zange babathole, ngemva kwalokho bayama umRhoba weKidroni batjhinga esimini. Njengombana bayokufuna uJesu, bakhamba baphethe iinkhali neenkhanyisi ngombana bazimisele ukumfumana.\nNjengombana uJudasi adosa phambili isiqubuthu utjhinga naso eNtabeni yama-Oliva, unesiqiniseko sokuthi uzomthola kuphi uJesu. UJesu nabapostoli nabaphasi phezulu bakhamba hlangana neJerusalema neBhethaniya bebajayele ukujama esimini yeGetsemani baphumule. Kodwana nje kumnyama ngaphandle uJesu kungenzeka ungaphasi kwemithi yama-Oliva esimini. Alo, amasotja angakhenge ambone uJesu ngaphambilini azomazi njani? Ukuze abasize uJudasi uzobenzela itshwayo. Uthi: “Loyo engizommanga, nguye enimfunako; mbambeni nimbophe nikhambe naye ngokuphepha.”—Markosi 14:44.\nNabasesimini uJudasi ubona uJesu nabapostoli bakhe, utjhinga kibo. Nakafikako uthi kuJesu: “Lotjha, Rabi!” bese ummanga ngomusa. Kodwana uJesu uthi kuye: “Mfo, uze ngamuphi umnqopho lapha?” (Matewu 26:49, 50) Uraga uthi: “Judasi, uthengisa iNdodana yomuntu ngokuyimanga?” (Lukasi 22:48) UJesu akasenandaba noJudasi.\nUJesu ubandamela emkhanyweni, uyababuza uthi: “Nifuna ubani?” Bamphendula bathi: “UJesu weNazaretha.” Ngesibindi uJesu uthi: “Nginguye.” (Jwanisi 18:4, 5) Kubarara khulu lokho, bahlehlela emuva bawela phasi.\nKunokuthi asebenzise ithubelo bona abaleke, uJesu uyababuza godu ukuthi bafuna ubani. Bayamphendula godu bathi, “uJesu weNazaretha,” ngommoya ophasi uthi: “Nginitjelile ukuthi nginguye. Nje-ke nangabe nifuna mina, lisani amadoda la akhambe.” Nebujamweni obumasikizobu, uJesu ukhumbula lokho akutjho ngaphambilini ukuthi angeze alahlekelwa nangoyedwa. (Jwanisi 6:39; 17:12) UJesu ubavikele abapostoli bakhe abathembekileko begodu akukho namunye wabo olahlekileko “ngaphandle kwendodana yokutjhatjalaliswa”—uJudasi. (Jwanisi 18:7-9) Nje-ke ubawa bona balise abalandeli bakhe abathembekileko bakhambe.\nNjengombana amasotja atjhidela kuJesu abapostoli bayabona ukuthi ikosabo isengozini. Bayayibuza bathi: “Kosi, sibarherhebule ngesabula na?” (Lukasi 22:49) UJesu angakaphenduli, uPitrosi uthatha isabula. Urharhabula uMalirhusi osisebenzi somphristi ophakemeko, umqunta indlebe yangesidleni.\nUJesu uthinta indlebe kaMalirhusi uyampholisa. Nje-ke ubafundisa isifundo esiqakathekileko, uyala uPitrosi uthi: “Buyisela isabulakho endawenayo, ngombana boke abasebenzisa isabula bazokubhubha ngesabula.” UJesu akakubalekeli ukubotjhwa, ngombana uthi: “Izokuzaliseka njani imiTlolo ethi kufuze kwenzeke bunjesi?” (Matewu 26:52, 54) Uraga uthi: “Akukafuzi na ngisele ikapho engiyinikelwe nguBaba?” (Jwanisi 18:11) UJesu uzimisele ukwenza intando kaZimu bekube sekufeni.\nUJesu ubuza isiqubuthu uthi: “Alo-ke niphumele ukuzokubopha mina niphethe iinsabula neembhuku ngasuthi nizokubamba isilelesi na? Mihla namalanga bengihlala ethempelini ngifundisa, kodwana khenge ningibambe. Kodwana koke lokhu kwenzeke bona kuzaliseke imitlolo yabaphorofidi.”—Matewu 26:55, 56.\nIsiqhema samasotja, induna yawo nesiqubuthu sabonogada bamaJuda babamba uJesu bayambopha. Abapostoli bayabaleka nababona lokhu. Nanyana kunjalo, “isokana elithileko”—mhlamunye mfundi kaJesu uMarkosi—lingena hlangana nesiqubuthu lilandela uJesu. (Markosi 14:51) Bayalibona isokaneli, balinga ukulibamba, liyabaleka litjhiya itjhila lalo lelineni.\nKubayini uJudasi afuna uJesu esimini yeGetsemani?\nUPitrosi ulinga njani ukuvikela uJesu begodu uJesu uthini ngalokho?\nUJesu utjengisa njani ukuthi uzimisele ukwenza intando kaZimu?\nAbapostoli nabatjhiya uJesu ngubani osalako begodu kwenzakalani ngemva kwalokho?


UNkulunkulu Ubiza USamuyeli | Izifundo ZeBhayibhili Zabantwana\nUMphristi Omkhulu u-Eli wayelamadodana amabili okwakuthiwa nguHofini loFinehasi. Amadodana la ayengabaphristi ethabanikeli. Ayengayilaleli imithetho kaJehova futhi ephatha kubi abantu. Kwakusithi nxa ama-Israyeli eletha iminikelo kuJehova, uHofini loFinehasi bazithathele inyama abayifunayo bayidle. U-Eli wezwa ukuthi amadodana akhe ayesenzani kodwa kenzanga lutho ngakho. UJehova kazange avume ukuthi lokhu kuqhubeke kusenzakala.\nUSamuyeli kazange enze njengamadodana ka-Eli lanxa wayemncane kulawo. Lokhu kwamthokozisa uJehova. Ngelinye ilanga uSamuyeli elele, wezwa ilizwi limbiza. Wagijima waya ku-Eli wathi: ‘Sengibuyile.’ Kodwa u-Eli wathi: ‘Kangikubizanga. Buyela uyelala.’ USamuyeli wabuyela wayalala. Waphinda walizwa futhi ilizwi limbiza. Lapho uSamuyeli esizwa ilizwi limbiza okwesithathu, u-Eli wananzelela ukuthi nguJehova owayembiza. Watshela uSamuyeli ukuthi angalizwa futhi ilizwi limbiza athi: ‘Khuluma Jehova. Inceku yakho ilalele.’\nUSamuyeli wabuyela wayalala. Wasesizwa ilizwi lisithi: “Samuyeli! Samuyeli!” Waphendula wathi: ‘Khuluma. Inceku yakho ilalele.’ UJehova wathi: ‘Tshela u-Eli ukuthi ngizamjezisa lemuli yakhe. Uyakwazi ukuthi amadodana akhe enza okubi ethabanikeli lami kodwa kenzi lutho ngakho.’ Ekuseni ngelanga elalandelayo, uSamuyeli wavula iminyango yethabanikeli njengenjayelo. Wayesesaba ukutshela umphristi omkhulu ukuthi uJehova wayetheni. Kodwa u-Eli wambiza wathi: ‘Samuyeli, uJehova utheni kuwe? Ngitshela konke.’ USamuyeli wamtshela konke.\nUJehova waqhubeka engumngane kaSamuyeli. Ama-Israyeli wonke ayekwazi ukuthi uJehova wayekhethe uSamuyeli ukuthi abe ngumphrofethi lomahluleli.\n“Khumbula uMdali wakho ngezinsuku zobutsha bakho.”—UmTshumayeli 12:1\nImibuzo: USamuyeli wayetshiyene njani loHofini loFinehasi? UJehova wathini kuSamuyeli?\n1 USamuyeli 2:12-17, 22-26; 3:1-21; 7:6\nUngamlingisela njani uSamuyeli, wenze okuhle lanxa abanye abantu besenza okubi?\nKuyini okwakungajayelekanga ngendlela uSamuyeli akhula ngayo?

Ukufumana Bona Khuyini “IBhabhiloni Yodumo” - I-Web Site YaboFakazi BakaJehova Esemthethweni\nINCWADI yeSambulo inamezwi okungafuze siwathathe njengombana anjalo. Isibonelo, ikhuluma ngomfazi onebizo elithi “iBhabhiloni Yodumo” elitlolwe epandlakhe. Umfazi lo uhlathululwe njengohlezi phezu ‘kweenqubuthu zabantu, neentjhaba.’ (ISambulo 17:1, 5, 15) Njengombana kungekho umfazi wamambala ongenza intwele, iBhabhiloni Yodumo ingokomfanekiso. Ngalokho-ke ijameleni ingwadlakazi engokomfanekiso le?\nKuSambulo 17:18, umfazi ongokomfanekiso lo uhlathululwe bona “umumuzi wedumo oguqelwa makhosi wephasi uwabuse.” Ibizo elithi ‘umuzi’ litjho ihlangano yesiqhema sabantu ehleliweko. Njengombana ‘umuzi wedumo’ lo ulawula phezu ‘kwamakhosi wephasi,’ umfazi obizwa bona yiBhabhiloni Yedumo uyihlangano enomthelela ephasini loke. Ingabizwa ngokufaneleko bona mbuso wephasi. Mbuso onjani loyo? Mbuso wekolo. Tjheja bona ezinye iindima zencwadi yeSambulo zisenze njani bona sifike esiphethwenesi.\nUmbuso ungaba ngezombanganarha, zerhwebo, namtjhana zekolo. Umfazi obizwa bona yiBhabhiloni Yedumo akasiwo umbuso wezombanganarha ngombana iLizwi lakaZimu lithi “amakhosi wephasi,” namtjhana iinqhema zephasi zezombanganarha, “agila nayo imikhuba yobungwadla.” Ubufebe bakhe buqaliswe emvumelwaneni azenza nababusi bephaseli begodu ihlathulula nokobana kubayini abizwa bona “ingwadlakazi.”—ISambulo 17:1, 2; KaJakobosi 4:4.\nIBhabhiloni Yedumo ayisiwo umbuso wezerhwebo ngombana “nabarhwebi bephasi,” abajamele iinqhema zerhwebo, bazoyililela ngesikhathi sokutjhatjalaliswa kwayo. Eqinisweni, kokubili ababusi nabarhwebi bahlathululwa njengabazakuqala iBhabhiloni Yedumo ‘bajamele kudana.’ (ISambulo 18:3, 9, 10, 15-17) Ngalokho, kuyazwakala ukuphetha ngokobana iBhabhiloni Yedumo ayisiwo umbuso wezombanganarha namtjhana wezerhwebo, kodwana mbuso wekolo.\nBona iBhabhiloni Yedumo yikolo, godu kufakazelwa kukobana idukisa zoke iintjhaba “ngobuloyi” bayo. (ISambulo 18:23) Njengombana zoke iinhlobo zeenkolo nemimoya ziphefumulelwe mademoni, akurari bona iBhayibhili ibiza iBhabhiloni Yedumo bona “seliyindawo yokuhlala imimoya emimbi.” (ISambulo 18:2; Duteronomi 18:10-12) Umbuso lo godu uhlathululwa njengophikisa ikolo yeqiniso ngelunya, utlhorise ‘abaporofidi,’ ‘nabantu bakaZimu.’ (ISambulo 18:24) Eqinisweni, iBhabhiloni Yedumo inehloyo ekulu ngekolo yeqiniso kangangobana ngelunya itlhorisa begodu ibulala ‘abofakazi bakaJesu.’ (ISambulo 17:6) Ngikho, umfazi lo obizwa bona yiBhabhiloni Yedumo ngokukhanyako ajamele umbuso wephasi wekolo yamala, okuhlanganisa zoke iinkolo eziphikisana noJehova uZimu.

(KwabaseRoma 6:23; Kwabase-Efesu 1:7) Ukufa kwakhe kwatshengisa ukuthi umuntu angahlala eqotho kuNkulunkulu lanxa ephakathi kwezinhlupho.—KumaHebheru 4:15.\nAke sihlole ukuthi ukufa komuntu oyedwa kwakwenza njani lokhu.\nUJesu wafa ukuze ‘sithethelelwe izono.’—KwabaseKholose 1:14.\nUmuntu wokuqala u-Adamu wadalwa engelasono kodwa wakhetha ukungalaleli uNkulunkulu. Ukona kwakhe kwathela abantu bonke emanyaleni. IBhayibhili lithi: “Ngokungalaleli kwalowomuntu oyedwa abanengi benziwa izoni.”—KwabaseRoma 5:19.\nUJesu laye wayephelele kodwa kazange enze isono. Yikho okwenza waba ‘ngumhlatshelo wenhlawulo yezono zethu.’ (1 UJohane 2:2) Ukona kuka-Adamu kwenza abantu bonke baba lesono ikanti ukufa kukaJesu kwasusa lesosono ebantwini abalokholo.\nU-Adamu wenza abantu bonke baba lesono kodwa uJesu wabakhulula esonweni. Yikho ‘uma umuntu engenza isono silaye osikhulumelayo kuBaba esivikela—uJesu Khristu oLungileyo.’—1 UJohane 2:1.\nUJesu wafa ‘ukuze kuthi loba ngubani okholwa kuye angabhubhi kodwa abe lokuphila okungapheliyo.’—UJohane 3:16.\nLanxa u-Adamu wayelethemba lokuphila phakade, ukona kwakhe kwamenza wafa. ILizwi likaNkulunkulu lithi: “Isono sangena emhlabeni ngomuntu oyedwa, lokufa ngesono, njalo ngale indlela ukufa kwafika ebantwini bonke, ngoba bonke benze isono.”—KwabaseRoma 5:12.\nLanxa kunjalo ukufa kukaJesu kwasisusa lesosono kanye lesigwebo sokufa kubo bonke abantu abalokholo. IBhayibhili liyifinqa kanje indaba le: “Njengoba isono sabusa ekufeni, kuthi ngokunjalo umusa lawo ubuse ngokulunga ukuba ulethe ukuphila okungapheliyo ngoJesu Khristu iNkosi yethu.”—KwabaseRoma 5:21.\nKodwa iqiniso yikuthi khathesi siyafa. Loba kunjalo uNkulunkulu uthembisa ukuthi uzanika abantu abalungileyo ukuphila okungapheliyo futhi avuse labafileyo ukuze bazuze emhlatshelweni kaJesu.—IHubo 37:29; 1 KwabaseKhorinte 15:22.\nUJesu “walalela kwaze kwaba sekufeni” ngaleyo ndlela etshengisa ukuthi umuntu angahlala ethembekile kuNkulunkulu lanxa ephakathi kwezinhlupho.—KwabaseFiliphi 2:8.\nLanxa u-Adamu wayedalwe ephelele kazange alalele uNkulunkulu ngenxa yokuthi wafisa into eyayingayisiyo yakhe. (UGenesisi 2:16, 17; 3:6) Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi uSathane wathi akulamuntu ongaqhubeka elalela uNkulunkulu nxa esebunzimeni. (UJobe 2:4) Kodwa uJesu wahlala eqotho kuNkulunkulu wabulawa ngendlela elihlazo futhi ebuhlungu. (KumaHebheru 7:26) Lokhu kwaveza egcekeni ukuthi umuntu angahlala ethembekile kuNkulunkulu kungelani lokuthi uhlangana labuphi ubunzima.\nImibuzo emayelana lokufa kukaJesu\nKungani uJesu kwakumele afe ukuze akhulule abantu esonweni? Kungani uNkulunkulu engazange aphongukhipha isigwebo sokufa?\nUmthetho kaNkulunkulu uthi “umvuzo wesono yikufa.” (KwabaseRoma 6:23) UNkulunkulu wamtshela u-Adamu ukuthi isigwebo sokungalaleli yikufa. (UGenesisi 3:3) Lanxa kunjalo wona futhi uNkulunkulu “ongaqambi manga” waligcina ilizwi lakhe. (KuThithusi 1:2) U-Adamu wadlulisela kubo bonke abantu isigwebo lesi.\nLanxa abantu bengaphansi kwesigwebo sokufa, uNkulunkulu wabatshengisa ‘umusa wengcebo yakhe.’ (Kwabase-Efesu 1:7) Ukuthumela uJesu ukuthi azofela abantu kwatshengisa isihawu lokulunga kukaNkulunkulu.\nUJesu wafa nini?\nWafa “ngehora lesificamunwe munye” kumbe ngehora lesithathu emini. Usuku afa ngalo kwakulilanga lePhasika yamaJuda. (UMakho 15:33-37) Ngokubala kwalamuhla kwakungoLwesihlanu mhlaka 1 April 33 C.E.\nWafela ngaphi uJesu?\nWafela “eNdaweni yokhakhayi (okuthiwa ngesiHebheru yiGoligotha).” (UJohane 19:17, 18) Indawo le ‘yayingaphandle kwesango ledolobho’ leJerusalema. (KumaHebheru 13:12) Kungenzakala ukuthi yayisentabeni ngoba iBhayibhili lithi abanye babona ukufa kukaJesu “bekude.” (UMakho 15:40) Khathesi akwaziwa ukuthi iGoligotha yayingaphi.\nUJesu wafa njani?\nAbantu abanengi bakholwa ukuthi uJesu wafela esiphambanweni. Kodwa iBhayibhili lithi: “Yena elalimbulele ngokumlengisa emthini.” (ImiSebenzi 5:30) Ngesikhathi abalobi beBhayibhili bebhala ngalapho uJesu afela khona basebenzisa ibala lesiGrikhi elithi stau·rosʹ lelithi xyʹlon. Izikhwicamfundo ezinengi zithi amabala la atsho isigodo esimileyo.\nKumele kukhunjulwe njani ukufa kukaJesu?\nUJesu waqalisa umkhosi othile ngelanga amaJuda ayenanza ngalo iPhasika futhi walaya abafundi bakhe wathi: “Yenzani lokhu ukuba lingikhumbule.” (1 KwabaseKhorinte 11:24) Ngemva kwamahora athile wabulawa.\nAbalobi beBhayibhili bafanisa uJesu lewundlu elalihlatshwa ngePhasika. (1 KwabaseKhorinte 5:7) Ukunanzwa kwePhasika kwakukhumbuza ama-Israyeli ukukhululwa kwawo ebugqilini. ISikhumbuzo sokufa kukaJesu laso sisinceda sikhumbule ngokukhululwa kwethu esonweni lasekufeni. IPhasika yayisenziwa kanye ngomnyaka mhlaka 14 ngenyanga kaNisani.

Isiphambano ngasinye besinomtlolo othi: “Kubayini?” Esikhathi esinengi loyo mbuzo obuhlungu kunayo yoke. Abantu bayibuza batlhuwile lokha nekunepi, ihlekelele, ubulwelwe, namtjhana ubulelesi bubulala abantu ababathandako abanganamlandu, itjhabalalisa imizi yabo, namtjhana ibalethela ukutlhaga ngendlela engacabangekiko. Bafuna ukwazi bona kubayini behlelwa zizinto ezibuhlungu kangaka.\n2 Kubayini uZimu avumele ukutlhaga? Nengabe uJehova uZimu unamandla amakhulu, ithando, ukuhlakanipha nokulunga, kubayini iphasi lizele ihloyo nokungalungi? Wena wakhe wazibuza ngalokhu?\n3 Kuyintwembi ukubuza bona kubayini uZimu avumele ukutlhaga? Abanye batshwenyeka ngokobana ukubuza umbuzo onjalo kutjho bona abanalo ikholo elaneleko namtjhana batjengisa bona abamhloniphi uZimu. Nokho, newufunda iBhayibhili, uzokufumana bona abantu abasaba uZimu abathembekileko bakhe baba neembuzo enjalo. Isibonelo, umporofidi uHabakuki wabuza uJehova: “Kubayini ungenza ngibone okulimazako, begodu uqale imiraro? Kubayini kunokudlelezela nenturhu phambi kwamehlwami, kubayini kunokulwa, begodu nombango uragela phambili?”—Habakuki 1:3.\nUJehova uzokuqeda koke ukutlhaga\n4 UJehova wamsola na umporofidi uHabakuki ngokumbuza iimbuzo le? Awa, kunalokho uZimu wafaka amezwi kaHabakuki athembekileko eBhayibhilini. UZimu wamrhelebha bonyana abe nelwazi elikhanyako ngezinto begodu abe nekholo eliqinileko. UJehova ufuna ukwenza okufanako nangawe. Khumbula, iBhayibhili ifundisa bona “yena uyanikhathalela.” (1 KaPitrosi 5:7) UZimu uhloya ubumbi nokutlhaga ngaphezu kwananyana ngimuphi omunye umuntu. (Isaya 55:8, 9) Kubayini-ke kunokutlhaga okungaka ephasini?\n5 Abantu beenkolo ezihlukahlukeneko baya kubadosiphambili babo bekolo nakibothitjhere ukubuza bona kubayini uZimu avumele ukutlhaga. Ngokuvamileko baphendula ngokobana ukutlhaga kuyintando kaZimu begodu wahlophisa yoke into ezokwenzeka kuhlanganise nezehlakalo ezibuhlungu. Abanengi batjelwa bona iindlela zakaZimu zifihlekile namtjhana bona uletha ukufa ebantwini—ngitjho nebantwaneni—bonyana abe nabo ezulwini. Njengombana sewufundile, uJehova uZimu akabangeli izinto ezimbi. IBhayibhili ithi: “Akubekude noZimu wamambala ukwenza ngokukhohlakala, nakuSomandla ukwenza ngokungalungi!”—Jobhi 34:10.\n6 Uyazi bonyana kubayini abanye abantu benza iphoso ngokusola uZimu ngokutlhaga ephasini? Esikhathini esinengi, basola uZimu uMninimandla woke ngombana badlumbana nguye umbusi wamambala wephaseli. Abalazi iqiniso eliqakathekileko kodwana elibulula elifundiswa yiBhayibhili. Ufundile ngeqiniswelo eSahlukweni-3 sencwadi le. Umbusi wamambala wephaseli nguSathana uDeveli.\n7 IBhayibhili ihlathulula ngokukhanyako: “Iphasi loke lisemandleni woKhohlakeleko.” (1 KaJwanisi 5:19) Lokha newucabanga ngalokho, awuboni kuzwakala na lokhu? Iphaseli litjengisa ubuntu besibunjwa somoya esingabonakaliko “umkhohlisi wephasi loke.” (ISambulo 12:9) USathana unehloyo, uyakhohlisa begodu unelunya. Ngalokho iphasi loke elingaphasi komthelela wakhe lizele ihloyo, ukukhohlisa nelunya. Leli libanga lokuthoma lokobana kube nokutlhaga okungaka.\n8 Ibanga lesibili lokobana kube nokutlhaga okungaka, kungombana abantu banesono solo kwaba nokuhlubuka e-Edeni, njengombana kuhlathululwe eSahlukweni sesi-3. Abantu abanesono bafuna ukubusa, begodu lokhu kubangela izipi, ukugandeleleka nokutlhaga. (Umtjhumayeli 4:1; 8:9) Ibanga lesithathu lokobana kube nokutlhaga okungaka ‘sikhathi nezehlakalo ezingakalindeleki.’ (Umtjhumayeli 9:11) Ephasini elinganasivikelo sakaJehova njengoMbusi, abantu bangatlhaga ngombana basendaweni engakafaneli ngesikhathi esingakafaneli.\n9 Kuyasiduduza ukwazi bonyana uZimu akabangeli ukutlhaga. Akusuye obangela izipi, ubulelesi, ukugandeleleka namtjhana iinhlekelele zemvelo ezibangela abantu ukutlhaga. Namtjhana kunjalo, sifuna ukwazi bonyana kubayini uJehova avumela koke ukutlhagokhu? Nengabe uMninimandla woke, unamandla wokukuvimbela. Kubayini-ke angakuvimbeli? UZimu onethando esifunde ngaye kufuze bona unebanga elihle lokukuvumela.—1 KaJwanisi 4:8.\nKUPHAKAMA IPIKISWANO EQAKATHEKILEKO\n10 Ukufumana bona kubayini uZimu avumele ukutlhaga, kufuze sicabange emva lapho ukutlhaga kwathoma khona. Lokha uSathana nekabangela u-Adamu no-Efa bona bangamlaleli uJehova, kwaphakama ipikiswano eqakathekileko. USathana akhenge aphikise amandla kaJehova. USathana uyazi bona amandla kaJehova akamedeki. Kunalokho uSathana waphikisa ilungelo lakaJehova lokubusa. Ngokubiza uZimu ngomleyi mala odima abantu bakhe izinto ezihle, uSathana wathi uJehova mbusi omumbi. (Genesisi 3:2-5) USathana wathi isintu singaphila bhedere ngaphandle kokubusa kwakaZimu. Lokhu gade kukuhlasela ubukhosi bakaJehova nelungelo lakhe lokubusa.\n11 U-Adamu no-Efa bahlubuka kuJehova. Ngamanye amezwi bathi: “Asifuni ukuBuswa nguJehova. Singakghona ukuzikhethela ngokwethu bonyana yini elungileko nengakalungi.” UJehova gade angayirarulula njani ipikiswano le? Bekangazifundisa njani zoke iimbunjwa ezihlakaniphileko bona iinhlubuki bezinephoso nokobana indlela yakhe ngiyo eqinisweni ebhedere? Omunye angathi ngathana uZimu wazitjhabalalisa iinhlubukezo athomise phasi. Kodwana uJehova gade sele awutjhwile umnqopho wakhe wokuzalisa iphasi ngenzalo ka-Adamu no-Efa, begodu gade afuna baphile ephasini eliyiparadeyisi. (Genesisi 1:28) Ngaso soke isikhathi uJehova uyawuzalisa umnqopho wakhe. (Isaya 55:10, 11) Ngaphandle kwalokho, ukutjhabalalisa iinhlubuki e-Edeni bekungekhe kuwuphendule umbuzo owaphakanyiswa malungana nelungelo lakaJehova lokubusa.\nUmfundi uhlakaniphile kunothitjhere na?\n12 Akhe sicabangele isibonelo nasi. Cabanga ngothitjhere atjela abafundi bakhe bonyana bangawurarulula njani umraro obudisi. Umfundi osihlakaniphi kodwana osihlubuki uthi indlela kathitjhere yokurarulula umraro akusiyo. Ukutjengisa bona uthitjhere angekhe akwazi ukurarulula umraro lo, isihlubukesi sithi sona sinendlela ebhedere khulu esingararulula ngayo umraro lo. Abanye abafundi bacabanga bona siqinisile begodu nabo baba ziinhlubuki. Khuyini obekufuze bona uthitjhere ayenze? Nengabe uqotha iinhlubukezo eklasini, abafundi abaseleko bebazokuthini? Bebangekhe bacabanga bona umfundi loyo nabazibandakanye naye baqinisile? Boke abanye abafundi eklasini bebazokulahlekelwa yihlonipho ngothitjhere, bacabange bonyana uyasaba ukutjelwa ngephoso yakhe. Kodwana akhe sithi uthitjhere uvumela isihlubuki bona sitjengise iklasi bonyana singawurarulula njani umraro lo.\n13 UJehova wenza okufanako nokwenziwa nguthitjhere. Khumbula bonyana gade kungasizo zodwa iinhlubuki ezibandakanyekileko e-Edeni. Gade kuneengidi zeengilozi ezibukeleko. (Jobhi 38:7; Danyela 7:10) Indlela uJehova asingatha ngayo ukuhlubukokhu beyizokuthinta zoke iingilozi emaswapheleni nazo zoke iimbunjwa ezihlakaniphileko. Ngalokho-ke, khuyini uJehova ayenzako? Wavumela uSathana bona atjengise bonyana angasibusa njani isintu. UZimu wavumela abantu bona bazibuse ngaphasi kokunqophiswa nguSathana.\n14 Uthitjhere osesibonelweni sethu uyazi bonyana isihlubuki nalabo abazibandakanye naso banephoso. Kodwana uyazi bonyana ukubanikela kwakhe ithuba bona bafakazele lokho abakutjhwileko kungazuzisa iklasi loke. Iinhlubuki nezibhalelwako, boke abafundi abathembekileko bebazokubona bona nguthitjhere yedwa onelungelo lokufundisa. Ngemva kwalokho bebazokuzwisisa bonyana kubayini uthitjhere aqotha nanyana ngiziphi iinhlubuki eklasini. Ngokufanako, noJehova uyazi bonyana boke abantu abathembekileko neengilozi bazokuzuza ngokubona uSathana nabazibandakanye naye ekuhlubukeni babhalelwe, begodu nokobana abantu angekhe bakwazi ukuzibusa ngokwabo. NjengoJeremiya wekadeni, bazokufunda iqiniso eliqakathekilekweli: “Ngazi kuhle Jehova bonyana akusikuye umuntu wephasini ukunqophisa iindlela zakhe. Akusikuye umuntu okhambako ukunqophisa amagadango wakhe.”—Jeremiya 10:23.\nKUBAYINI UJEHOVA AVUMELE UKUTLHAGA KUTHATHE ISIKHATHI ESIDE KANGAKA?\n15 Kubayini-ke uJehova avumele ukutlhaga bona kuthathe isikhathi eside kangaka? Begodu kubayini angavimbeli izinto ezimbi bona zenzeke? Nokho, cabangela izinto eembili uthitjhere weemfanekisweni wethu abangekhe azenza. Kokuthoma, bekangekhe avimbele isihlubuki somfundi bonyana siveze indaba yaso. Kwesibili, uthitjhere bekangekhe arhelebhe isihlubuki bona sirarulule umraro lo. Ngokufanako, cabangela izinto eembili uJehova abangekhe azenza. Kokuthoma, bekangekhe avimbele uSathana nalaba abazibandakanye naye ekulingeni ukutjengisa bona abanaphoso. Bekufuze avumele isikhathi esithileko. Eemnyakeni eyikulungwana yomlando wesintu, isintu silingile ukuzibusa, namtjhana ukubuswa borhulumende babantu. Abantu bathuthukile kwezesayensi nakwezinye izinto, kodwana ukungalungi, ukutlhaga, ubulelesi nepi kubhebhedlhile. Kwanjesi kuyatjengisa bona ukubusa komuntu kubhalelwe.\n16 Kwesibili, uJehova akhenge arhelebhe uSathana bona abuse iphaseli. Isibonelo, nengabe uZimu uvimbele ubulelesi, ukwenza njalo bekungazokutjengisa bona usekela iinhlubuki? Ukwenza kwakaZimu njalo bekungekhe na kwenze abantu bacabange bonyana isintu singakghona ukuzibusa ngaphandle kwemiphumela emimbi? Nengabe uJehova ubangenza njalo, bekuzokutjengisa bonyana naye ubandakanyekile emaleni la. Kodwana ‘uZimu angekhe athoma amala.’—KumaHebheru 6:18.\nUZimu uzokurhelebha bona ukghodlhelele ukutlhaga\n17 Nokho, kuthiwani-ke ngawo woke umonakala owenzekileko hlangana nesikhathi eside sokuhlubuka kuZimu? Kufuze sikhumbule bonyana uJehova mninimandla woke. Ngalokho, angakghona ukususa begodu uzokususa ukutlhaga esintwini. Njengombana sifundile, iphasi elimotjhakeleko lizokutjhugululwa ngokwenziwa libe yiParadeyisi. Imiphumela yesono izokususwa ngokuba nekholo emhlatjelweni kaJesu wesihlengo, nemiphumela yokufa izokususwa ngevuko. UZimu uzokuberegisa uJesu “ukugiriza imisebenzi kaSathana.” (1 KaJwanisi 3:8) Koke lokhu uJehova uzokwenza ngesikhathi sakhe esifaneleko. Singathaba ngokobana uJehova akhenge athathe igadango msinyana, ngombana ukukghodlhelela kwakhe kusinikele ithuba bona sifunde iqiniso ngaye begodu simkhonze. (2 KaPitrosi 3:9, 10) Okwanje, uZimu ufuna abakhulekeli abathembekileko begodu ubarhelebhe bona bakghodlhelele nanyana ngikuphi ukutlhaga abangaqalana nakho ephasini elizele imirarweli.—Jwanisi 4:23; 1 KwebeKorinte 10:13.\n18 Abanye bangazibuza, Ukutlhagokhu bekungekhe kwavinjelwa na nengabe uZimu wabumba u-Adamu no-Efa ngendlela yokobana bangahlubuki? Ukuphendula umbuzo loyo, kufuze ukhumbule isipho esiligugu uJehova akuphe sona.\nUZOSIBEREGISA NJANI ISIPHO ESIVELA KUZIMU?\n19 Njengombana sifundile eSahlukweni sesi-5, abantu babunjwa banekululeko yokuzikhethela. Uyayelela bona kusisipho esiligugu kangangani lesi? UZimu wabumba iinlwana ezinengi, begodu zona ziberega ngamazizo wemvelo. (Iziyema 30:24) Abantu benze amarobothi bona akghone ukwenza ngendlela ahlophiswe ngayo. Besizokuthaba na negade uZimu asenze njengamarobothi? Awa, siyathaba ngombana sinekululeko yokuzenzela iinqunto zokobana sifuna ukuba babantu abanjani, nokobana ngiziphi izinto esifuna ukuzenza ekuphileni begodu sifuna ukuba nabangani abanjani, nokhunye. Siyathanda ukuba nekululeko ngesilinganiso esithileko, begodu ngilokho uZimu afuna bona sikuthabele.\n20 UJehova akayithabeli ikonzo eyenziwa ngokukatelelwa. (2 KwebeKorinte 9:7) Ukutjengisa: Khuyini engathabisa umbelethi khulu —ukutjho komntwana bona “ngiyakuthanda” ngombana atjelwe bona atjho njalo, namtjhana ngilokha nakazitjhwela yena? Ngalokho naku umbuzo ophakamako, Uzoyiberegisa njani ikululeko yokuzikhethela uJehova akuphe yona? USathana, u-Adamu no-Efa bayiberegisa kumbi ikululeko yabo yokuzikhethela. Akhenge bamlalele uJehova uZimu. Khuyini wena ozoyenza?\n21 Unethuba lokuberegisa isipho esihlesi sekululeko yokuzikhethela ngendlela ezuzisako. Ungazihlanganisa neengidi zabantu abasehlangothi lakaJehova. Benza uZimu athabe ngombana babenengcenye ekufakazeleni bona uSathana unamala begodu ubhalelwe ngendlela edanisako ukubusa. (Iziyema 27:11) Nawe ungakghona ukwenza njalo ngokukhetha indlela elungileko yokuphila. Lokhu kuzokuhlathululwa esahlukweni esilandelako.\nUZimu akabangeli izinto ezimbi ephasini.—Jobhi 34:10.\nNgokubiza uZimu ngomleyi mala odima abantu Bakhe izinto ezihle, uSathana wathi uJehova mbusi omumbi.—Genesisi 3:2-5.\nUJehova uzokuberegisa iNdodanakhe, uMbusi woMbuso wobuMesiya, ukuphelisa koke ukutlhaga kwabantu nemiphumela yakho.—1 KaJwanisi 3:8.\n1, 2. Ngikuphi ukutlhaga abantu abaqalene nakho namhlanjesi, okubenze bazibuze miphi iimbuzo?\n3, 4. (a) Khuyini etjengisa bona akusikumbi ukubuza bonyana kubayini uZimu avumele ukutlhaga? (b) UJehova uzizwa njani ngobumbi nokutlhaga?\n5. Ngiziphi ezinye iinzathu ezinikelwako ngezinye iinkhathi malungana nokutlhaga kwabantu, kodwana iBhayibhili yona ifundisani?\n6. Kubayini abantu abanengi benza iphoso ngokusola uZimu ngokutlhaga kwabantu ephasinapha?\n7, 8. (a) Iphasi libutjengisa njani ubuntu bombusi walo? (b) Ukuba nesono kwabantu, “isikhathi nezehlakalo ezingakalindeleki” zibe nayiphi indima ekutlhageni kwabantu?\n9. Kubayini singaqiniseka bona uJehova unebanga elihle lokuvumela ukutlhaga kuragele phambili?\n10. Ngiyiphi ipikiswano uSathana ayiphakamisako, begodu wakwenza njani lokhu?\n11. Kubayini uJehova angakhenge azitjhabalalise iinhlubuki e-Edeni?\n12, 13. Tjengisa bonyana kubayini uJehova avumela uSathana abe mbusi wephaseli, begodu kubayini uZimu avumele abantu bona bazibuse?\n14. Uzokuba yini umphumela wokukhetha kwakaJehova ukuvumela abantu bona bazibuse?\n15, 16. (a) Kubayini UJehova avumele ukutlhaga kuthathe isikhathi eside kangaka? (b) Kubayini uJehova angakhenge avimbele izinto ezimbi njengobulelesi?\n17, 18. Khuyini uJehova azoyenza malungana nawo woke umonakalo omphumela wokubusa kwabantu nomthelela kaSathana?\n19. Ngisiphi isipho esiligugu uJehova asiphe sona, begodu kubayini kufuze sisithathe njengesiqakathekileko?\n20, 21. Singasiberegisa njani isipho sekululeko yokuzikhethela ngendlela ehle, begodu kubayini sifuna ukwenza njalo?
