Yehova Afulisha Ukutemwa Ukushipwa
“Yehova wa . . . luse lukalamba [“afulisha ukutemwa ukushipwa,” NW].”—AMALUMBO 145:8.
1. Ni pi ukutemwa kwa kwa Lesa kwafika?
“LESA kutemwa.” (1 Yohane 4:8) Aya mashiwi yasuma yalanga ukuti ishinte lya mitekele ya kwa Yehova kutemwa. Ca cine, na bantu fye abashumfwila Lesa balakwatilamo ifisuma mu kasuba na mu mfula ifyo Lesa apeela mu kutemwa! (Mateo 5:44, 45) Umulandu wa kuti Lesa alitemwa abantu, na balwani bakwe bene kuti balapila, babwelela kuli wena, no kwisakwata ubumi bwa muyayaya. (Yohane 3:16) Na lyo line, kushele fye inshita iinono ilyo Yehova alaswa onaule imbifi sha kapela-makufi pa kutila abantu abamutemwa bakaipakishe ubumi bwa muyayaya mu calo cipya icalungama.—Amalumbo 37:9-11, 29; 2 Petro 3:13.
2. Kutemwa nshi ukwaibela uko Yehova alanga ku baipeela kuli wena?
2 Yehova alalanga ukutemwa mu nshila yaibela kabili iibelelela ku bantu bakwe abamupepa mu cine. Uku ukutemwa, mu ciHebere kwapilibulwa ukuti “ukutemwa ukushipwa.” Imfumu Davidi iya mu calo ca Israele wa ku kale yalicindikishe ukutemwa kushipwa ukwa kwa Lesa. Pa mulandu wa fyo apitilemo na pa mulandu wa kutontonkanya pa fyo Lesa acitile kuli bambi, e co Davidi aimbiile ati: “Yehova wa . . . luse lukalamba [“afulisha ukutemwa ukushipwa,” NW].”—Amalumbo 145:8.
Ukwishiba Abantu ba Cishinka aba kwa Lesa
3, 4. (a) Bushe Amalumbo 145 yatwafwa shani ukwishiba abantu ba cishinka aba kwa Yehova? (b) Bushe abantu ba cishinka aba kwa Lesa ‘bapaala’ shani Lesa?
3 Anna, nyina wa kwa kasesema Samwele alandile pali Yehova ati: “Amakasa ya babile [“aba cishinka,” NW] bakwe akayabaka.” (1 Samwele 2:9) Ni bani aba “aba cishinka”? Imfumu Davidi ya-asuka ili lipusho. Pa numa ya kutatakula imibele isuma iya kwa Yehova, yatila: “Aba cishinka benu bakamupaala.” (Amalumbo 145:10, NW) Bushe abantu kuti bapaala shani Lesa? Bamupaala maka maka ilyo balemulumbanya nelyo ukumutatakula.
4 Abantu ba cishinka aba kwa Yehova beshibikilwa ku fyo batatakula wena. Ilyo bali pa kulongana kwa Bwina Kristu na lintu fye bali na banabo, cinshi balandapo sana? Ukwabula no kutwishika, balanda pa Bufumu bwa kwa Yehova! Ababomfi ba kwa Lesa aba cishinka bomfwa nge fyaumfwile Davidi, uwaimbile ati: “Ubukata bwa bufumu bwenu [mwe Yehova] balebulanda, na bumpalume bwenu balebusosa.”—Amalumbo 145:11.
5. Twaishiba shani ukuti Yehova alakutika ilyo aba cishinka bakwe balemutatakula?
5 Bushe Yehova alakutika ilyo aba cishinka bakwe balemulumbanya? Ee, alakutika ku fyo basosa. Malaki alembele ukusesema kulanda pa kupepa kwa cine ukwa muno nshiku ati: “E lyo abali na katiina kuli Yehova balesoshanya; na o Yehova alepeepeka, no kuumfwa, ne buuku lya kwibukisha lyalembelwe ku cinso cakwe, ilya babela Yehova akatiina, ilya batontonkanye shina lyakwe.” (Malaki 3:16) Yehova alatemwa nga nshi ilyo aba cishinka bakwe balemutatakula, kabili alabebukisha.
6. Mulimo nshi twishibilako abantu ba cishinka aba kwa Lesa?
6 Cimbi ica kwishibilako ababomfi ba cishinka aba kwa Yehova kushipa kwabo no kuitendekelako ukulanda na bantu abashipepa Lesa wa cine. Na cine, abantu ba cishinka aba kwa Lesa ‘balenga abana ba bantu beshibe ifya bumpalume fyakwe, no bukata ubwacindama bwa bufumu bwakwe.’ (Amalumbo 145:12) Bushe mulafwayafwaya inshila sha kushimikilamo no kuitendekelako ukushimikila abantu pa bufumu bwa kwa Yehova? Ukupusanako na mabuteko ya bantu, ayakapita nomba line, ubufumu bwakwe bwena bwa pe. (1 Timote 1:17) Ino e nshita ya kuti abantu basambilile pa bufumu bwa muyayaya ubwa kwa Yehova no kubutungilila. Davidi aimbile ati: “Ubufumu bwenu bufumu bwa muyayaya, no kuteka kwenu kwa mu nkulo ne nkulo.”—Amalumbo 145:13.
7, 8. Cinshi cacitike mu 1914, kabili bushininkisho nshi ubwa kuti Lesa atekela mu Bufumu bwa Mwana wakwe?
7 Ukutula mu 1914, kwaliba na cimbi icilenga ukuti balelanda pa bufumu bwa kwa Yehova. Muli uyu mwaka, Lesa apangile Ubufumu bwa buMesia mu muulu no kucita Yesu Kristu, Mwana Davidi, Imfumu ya buko. Uku kwali kufishapo ubulayo Yehova alaile ubwa kuti ubufumu bwa kwa Davidi bukapampamikwa umuyayaya.—2 Samwele 7:12, 13; Luka 1:32, 33.
8 Ubushininkisho bwa kuti Yehova aletekela mu Bufumu bwa Mwana wakwe, Yesu Kristu, bumonekela mu kufikilishiwa kwa cishibilo ca kubapo kwa kwa Yesu. Icapulamo mu cishibilo cilya mulimo Yesu asobele uwali no kubombwa na bantu ba cishinka bonse aba kwa Lesa. Yesu atile: “Imbila nsuma iyi iya bufumu ikashimikilwa pano isonde ponse ku kubo bunte ku nko shonse; e lyo ne mpela ikesa.” (Mateo 24:3-14) Umulandu wa kuti abantu ba cishinka aba kwa Lesa bali abapimpa ukufikilisha uku kusesema, abantu ukucila pa mamilioni 6, e kutila abaume, abanakashi, na bana nomba balebombako uyu mulimo ukalamba uushakatale aubwekeshiwapo. Impela ya bonse abakaanya Ubufumu bwa kwa Yehova ili fye mupepi.—Ukusokolola 11:15, 18.
Amapaalo Tusanga Muli Bumulopwe bwa kwa Yehova
9, 10. Bupusano nshi bwaba pali Yehova na bakateeka abantunse?
9 Nga tuli Bena Kristu baipeela, bucibusa bwesu na Shikulu Mulopwe Yehova bulatuletela ifya kutetesa ifingi nelyo amapaalo. (Amalumbo 71:5; 116:12) Cimo icalenga ukutila tuleipakisha ipaalo lya kusuminishiwa na wena no kupalama kuli wena lwa ku mupashi, mulandu wa kutila tulatiina Lesa no kucita ubulungami. (Imilimo 10:34, 35; Yakobo 4:8) Bakateeka ba buntunse bena batemwa sana ukuba na bantu balumbuka, pamo nga intungulushi sha bashilika, bashimakwebo banonka, nelyo aba fyangalo. Ukulingana ne nyunshipepala ya mu Afrika iya Sowetan, cilolo wa buteko uwalumbuka alandile pa ncende shimo mu calo cakwe umwaba ubupiina ukuti: “Ninjishiba umulandu fwe bengi tushifwaila ukuya kuli ishi ncende. Tufwaya ukalamona kwati ubupiina takwaba. Kampingu wesu alatushinina kabili tulaimona aba mulandu ilyo twamona ukutila ifwe twenda muli bamotoka ba mutengo.”
10 Ca cine, bakateeka bamo balyangwako ku mikalile ya batekwa babo. Lelo nangu fye ni bakateeka ababa bwino sana tabaishiba bwino abatekwa babo. Calinga kanshi ukwipusha ilipusho lya kuti: Bushe kwaliba kateeka uusakamana bonse abatekwa bakwe ica kutila tekata na ku cani ku kwaafwa umutekwa wakwe umo na umo nga aponenwa no bwafya? Ee, eko aba. Davidi alembele ati: “Yehova atungilila bonse abalewa, kabili emya bonse abakungumana.”—Amalumbo 145:14.
11. Mesho nshi ayaponena abantu ba cishinka aba kwa Lesa, kabili bwafwilisho nshi bakwata?
11 Abantu ba cishinka aba kwa Yehova balaponenwa na mesho ayengi pamo ne filenga ubulanda pa mulandu wa kukanapwililika kwabo na pa mulandu wa kuti baba mu calo calala mu maka ya “mubifi,” Satana. (1 Yohane 5:19; Amalumbo 34:19) Abena Kristu balapakaswa. Bamo balwala amalwele yashipola kabili bambi baba no bulanda bwa kufwilwa umutemwikwa. Inshita shimo, ifilubo fya bantu ba cishinka aba kwa Yehova kuti fyabalenga ‘ukukungumana’ no kunenuka. Lelo, nangu baponenwa no bwesho bwa musango onse, Yehova wena ali-iteyanya ukubasansamusha no kubapeela ubukose bwa ku mupashi. E fyo ne Mfumu Yesu Kristu ya-angwa abatekwa ba iko aba cishinka.—Amalumbo 72:12-14.
Ifilyo fya pa Nshita Yalinga Kabili Ifya Kwikusha
12, 13. Bushe Yehova apeela shani “conse ica mweo” fyonse ifyo cikabila?
12 Umulandu wa kutemwa kwakwe ukushipwa, Yehova alapeela ababomfi bakwe fyonse ifyo bakabila. Pali fi paba no ku bapeela ifilyo ifilenga baba no bumi. Imfumu Davidi yalembele ati: “Amenso ya bonse yalolela imwe [mwe Yehova], na imwe mubapeele cilyo cabo mu nshita ya ciko; ni mwe mufumbatule minwe yenu, no kwikusha conse ica mweo ifyo cilefwaya.” (Amalumbo 145:15, 16) Na mu nshita ya mafya, Yehova kuti acitapo fimo pa kutila abantu bakwe aba cishinka bwakwate “ica kulya.”—Luka 11:3; 12:29, 30.
13 Davidi atile “conse ica mweo” cilekushiwa. Inama na sho shilekushiwa. Nga ca kutila pe sonde tapali ifimenwa ifingi, na filya fimena muli ba bemba, ifinama fya muli ba bemba, ifyuni, ne nama sha ku mulundu te kuti fikwate umwela wa kupeema nelyo ifilyo. (Amalumbo 104:14) Lelo, Yehova alamona ukuti fyonse nafikwata ifyo filekabila.
14, 15. Bushe ica kulya ca ku mupashi cilepeelwa shani ndakai?
14 Ukupusanako ne nama, abantu balakabila ifya ku mupashi. (Mateo 5:3) Yehova alekusha ukukabila kwa ku mupashi ukwa bantu bakwe aba cishinka mu cipesha amano! Ilyo talafwa, Yesu alaile ukuti “umusha wa cishinka kabili uwashilimuka” ali no kulapeela abakonshi bwa kwa Yesu ‘ifya kulya [fya ku mupashi] pa nshita yalinga.’ (Mateo 24:45) Abashalapo pali ba 144,000 abasubwa e bumba lya musha pali leelo. Muli aba bene emo Yehova apeelela ifya kulya fya ku mupashi ifingi nga nshi.
15 Ku kulangilila ici, abantu ba kwa Yehova abengi nomba balasangamo ubusuma ukukwata Baibolo mupya kabili uwalungika, mu lulimi lwabo. Mwandini Baibolo wa New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures aba lipaalo icine cine! Kabili, ifitabo ifingi nga nshi ifya kusambililamo Baibolo filalembwa mu ndimi ukucila pali 300. Ici conse ica kulya ca ku mupashi caba lipaalo kuli bakapepa bene bene mwi sonde lyonse. Nani tufwile ukutasha pali fi fyonse? Ni Yehova Lesa. Pa mulandu wa kutemwa kwakwe ukushipwa, alilenga ukuti uyu musha alepeela “ifya kulya . . . pa nshita yalinga.” Ni muli ishi nshila e mo cikushiwa “conse ica mweo ifyo cilefwaya” icaba muli paradise wa ku mupashi uwa ndakai. Kabili ababomfi ba kwa Yehova balasekelela mwi subilo lya kulenga isonde ukuba paradise ilili fye mupepi!—Luka 23:42, 43.
16, 17. (a) Finshi filelanga ukuti ifilyo fya ku mupashi fyaishile pa nshita yalinga? (b) Bushe Amalumbo 145 yalanga shani ifyo abantu ba cishinka aba kwa Lesa bomfwa pa mulandu uukalamba uwaletele Satana?
16 Natulande pa cilyo cimo icaibela icapokelelwe pa nshita yalinga. Mu 1939, Inkondo ya Calo conse iya bubili yalitendeke mu Europe. Muli ulya wine mwaka, mu Ulupungu lwa kwa Kalinda ulwa mu cingeleshi ulwa November 1 mwali icipande caleti “Ukukanaipoosa mu milandu ya calo.” Pa mulandu wa fyebo fyalondolwelwe bwino, Inte sha kwa Yehova isonde lyonse bailwike umulandu wa kukanaipoosela mu milandu ya fyalo fyalelwa. Ici cabalamwine ubukali pali bene ubwa fyalo fyalelwa ku mbali shonse shibili ifyalelwa ilya nkondo iyapwile imyaka 6. Nangu ca kutila balibaleseshe ukushimikila no kubapakasa, abantu ba cishinka aba kwa Lesa balikonkenyepo ukubila imbila nsuma iya Bufumu. Ukufuma mu 1939 ukufika mu 1946, balipaalilwe ica kutila balifulileko ukucila na pa mapesenti 157. Kabili filya bashalwileko muli ilya nkondo, e cilenga abantu ukwishiba ukupepa kwa cine.—Esaya 2:2-4.
17 Ica kulya ca ku mupashi Yehova apeela ca pa nshita yalinga, lelo no kwikusha cilekusha. Ilyo Inkondo ya Calo conse iya bubili yafikile pa kalume, abantu bakwa Yehova balyafwiwe ukupoosa mano ku cacindama ukucila ipusukilo lyabo. Yehova abafwile ukumfwikisha ukuti umulandu uukalamba, uwakuma bonse aba ku muulu na pe sonde, mulandu wa bumulopwe bwakwe ubwa mulinga. Ca nsansa ukwishiba ukuti Nte umo na umo uwa kwa Yehova, kuli bucishinka bwakwe, alyafwileko ukulandilako Yehova ukuti e walinga ukuba mulopwe, no kushinina Kaseebanya ukuti wa bufi! (Amapinda 27:11) Ukupusanako na Satana, uuseebanya Yehova kumo ne mitekele yakwe, abantu ba kwa Yehova aba cishinka bakonkanyapo ukubila ku cintubwingi ukuti: “Yehova alilungama mu mibele yakwe yonse.”—Amalumbo 145:17.
18. Cinshi cacitike nomba line icilelango kuti ica kulya ca ku mupashi ca pa nshita yalinga kabili cilekusha?
18 Cimbi na co icilanga ukuti ifilyo fya ku mupashi fiisa pa nshita yalinga no kuti filekusha, citabo ca Palameni Kuli Yehova, icafumine pa kulongana kukalamba ukwaleti “Bakabilisha Bapimpa aba Bufumu” ukwaliko isonde lyonse mu 2002/03. Ici citabo icalembelwe no “musha wa cishinka kabili uwashilimuka” no kusabankanishiwa ne Nte sha kwa Yehova, cilanda sana pa mibele isuma iya kwa Yehova Lesa, ukusanshako na ilya yalumbulwa pa Amalumbo 145. Tatuletwishika ukuti ici citabo cisuma cikaafwa abantu ba cishinka aba kwa Lesa ukupalamisha kuli Lesa.
Inshita ya Kupalama Kuli Yehova
19. Ni nshita nshi iyakakala iilepalamina, kabili kuti twacita shani ilyo yafika?
19 Inshita yakakala iya kupwisha umulandu wa bumulopwe bwa kwa Yehova ilepalamina. Umwabela ifyasobelwe muli Esekiele icipandwa 38, Satana, “Goge wa mu calo ca Magoge” nomba line ali no kupwisha umulimo wakwe. Uyu mulimo ukaba wa kusansa abantu ba kwa Yehova isonde lyonse. Akabomfya amaka yakwe yonse ku kwesha ukonaula bucishinka bwa bantu ba kwa Lesa. E nshita bakapepa ba kwa Yehova bakacishanapo ukukuuta, no kupunda mutuule. Bushe akatiina bakwatila Lesa no kutemwa bamutemwa fikaya fye mu menshi? Awe iyo, pantu pa Amalumbo 145 patila: “Yehova ali mupepi kuli bonse abalilila kuli wene, kuli bonse abalilila kuli wene mu cishinka; ukufwaya kwa bamutiina, wene alakucita, ne nkuuta yabo ayumfwa, no kubapususha; Yehova abaka bonse abamutemwa, lelo ababifi bonse alabafita.”—Amalumbo 145:18-20.
20. Bushe amashiwi ya pa Amalumbo 145:18-20 yakaba shani aya cine ku nshita ya ku ntanshi iipalamishe?
20 Ifyo cikawama ukumona ukuti Yehova ali mupepi na bantu bakwe no kumona amaka yakwe aya kupususha ilyo akonaula ababifi bonse! Pali ilya nshita yakakala iipalamishe, Yehova akakutika kuli beka fye “abalilila kuli wene mu cishinka,” takakutike ku ba bumbimunda. Icebo ca kwa Lesa cisosa ukuti ukwita pe shina lya kwa Lesa ukwa mbifi ilyo inshita yapwa lyonse kuba kuuma fye umwela.—Amapinda 1:28, 29; Mika 3:4; Luka 13:24, 25.
21. Bushe abantu ba kwa Yehova aba cishinka balanga shani ukuti balitemwa ukulumbula ishina lya kwa Lesa?
21 Ino e nshita ku batiina Yehova ‘ukulilila kuli wene mu cishinka.’ Abantu bakwe aba cishinka balitemwa ukulumbula ishina lyakwe mu mapepo yabo na mu fyo balandapo pa kulongana kwabo. Na lintu bashili ku mapepo balalumbula ishina lya kwa Lesa. Kabili balabila ishina lya kwa Yehova mu mulimo wabo uwa ku cintubwingi ukwabula umwenso.—Abena Roma 10:10, 13-15.
22. Mulandu nshi cacindamina ukutwalila ukukaana imibele ya ku calo no lunkumbwa?
22 Pa kutwalilila ukukwatilamo ifisuma muli bucibusa bwesu ubwa pa mutima ubo twakwata na Yehova Lesa, calicindama na kabili ukuti tulekaana ifintu ifyonaula bumupashi pamo nga ukutemwisha ifikwatwa ne ndalama, ifyangalo fyabipa, ukufilwa ukwelela bambi, nelyo ukukanayangwa ababusu. (1 Yohane 2:15-17; 3:15-17) Umo nga alekapo fye, ifi fintu kuti fyalenga alacita imembu ishikalamba na ku mpela alufya ukusenamina kwa kwa Yehova. (1 Yohane 2:1, 2; 3:6) Cikankaala ukwishiba ukuti Yehova akakonkanyapo ukulanga ukutemwa ukushipwa, kuli ifwe kulila fye tuli aba cishinka kuli wena.—2 Samwele 22:26.
23. Ni nshita nshi iya lulumbi iyo abantu ba cishinka aba kwa Lesa balolela?
23 Kanshi natuletontonkanya pa nshita ya ku ntanshi iya lulumbi iyo abantu ba kwa Yehova bonse aba cishinka balolela. Ukucite fi, kutulenga ukuba ne subilo lyawama icine cine ilya kuba pali abo abakatasha Yehova, ukumupaala, no kumulumbanya “inshiku shonse” kabili “umuyayaya umuyayaya.” (Amalumbo 145:1, 2) E co ‘natuibakile mu kutemwa kwa kwa Lesa, ilyo tulelolela ubumi bwa ciyayaya.’ (Yuda 20, 21) Ilyo tulesangamo amapaalo mu mibele isuma iya kwa Shifwe wa ku muulu, na mu kutemwa kwakwe ukushipwa uko alanga ku ba mutemwa, natuleumfwa nge fyaumfwile Davidi uwalandile aya mu mashiwi ya kupelekeshako aya mu Amalumbo 145 ayatila: “Akanwa kandi kalesose fya kutasha Yehova; lekeni na bantunse bonse balecindike shina lyakwe lya mushilo umuyayaya umuyayaya.”
