Chizechene ngwe umwe kasongo akuhichika ngano hashi, Yesu kahichikile ngano jenyi hanga tujikaule.

Alioze kuli majila anji waze mutuhasa kwimbulwilamo Yesu. (1 Petu. 2:18-25) Kwamba umwenemwene, mutuhasa kwimbulula chilweza cha Yesu, che kwamba yuma yeswe yize ambile ni yize alingile.

5. Shina yihenge mahasa kwimbulula chilweza cha Yesu ni ungunu weswe? Lumbununa.

Twiwulukenu ngwetu, Petulu kakambile ngwenyi twatamba kukaula mu ngano ja Yesu ni ungunu weswe, alioze ngwenyi, mutuhasa “kwimbulula chilweza cha [Yesu] kulita ni uhashi wetu.” Nyi twachilinga, mutukaula chiyulo cha postolo Yoano chinambe ngwo: ‘Chanutamba kwenda chizechene ngwe [Yesu] endele.’—1 Yoa. 2:6.

6-7. Mumu liaka mutuhasa kwamba ngwetu, kukaula mu ngano ja Yesu chakutukundamisa kuli Yehova?

⁶ Kukaula mu ngano ja Yesu chakutukundamisa kuli Yehova. Mumu liaka mutuhasa kwamba chocho? Chitangu, Yesu kahichikile chilweza chipema cha chize evwishile Zambi kuwaha. (Yoa. 8:29) Kashika, nyi mutukaula mu ngano jenyi, mutuvwisa Yehova kuwaha.

Chakutalilaho, iye kanakevwila keke umwe mukwa-mbumba, yalisa mu chihela cha pwo yoze wapwile ni musongo upi, nawa yevwila keke atu waze afwishile asoko jo. Muze twakwimbulula  Yesu, twakwimbulula nawa Yehova. (Marku 1:40, 41; 5:25-34; Yoa. 11:33-35) Kashika, nyi twembulula yitanga ya Yehova mutukolesa usepa wetu ni iye.

8. Lumbununa mumu liaka kukaula mu ngano ja Yesu muchitukwasa ‘kukumba’ hashi.

⁸ Kukaula mu ngano ja Yesu chakutukwasa hanga tuchine kulaluka ni yuma ya hano hashi. Ha ufuku wenyi wa kasula hano hashi, Yesu kahashile kwamba ngwenyi: “Hingunakumbu hashi.” (Yoa. 16:33) Yesu kakakawile manyonga, yitanga ni yuma yize atu hano hashi akuzanga.

9. Yika twatamba kulinga mba tununge mu jila yize yinatwale ku mwono wa mutolo?

Muze umwe mukweze pichi ahulile ngwenyi, kuchi munguhasa kuzuka mwono wa mutolo, Yesu yamukumbulula ngwenyi: “Tweya ungukaule.” (Mateu 19:16-21) Muze ahanjikile ni A-Yunda waze te keshi kutayiza ngwo iye kali Kristu, Yesu yamba ngwenyi: “Mapanga jami. . . kakungukaula. Ngunaahe mwono wa mutolo.” (Yoa. 10:24-29) Nawa muze ahanjikile ni Nikondemu umwe mukwa-kuyula mu chota cha A-Yunda, Yesu yamba ngwenyi: “Mweswawo mamufuliela” te mapwa “ni mwono wa mutolo.” (Yoa. 3:16) Kuchi twakusolola ngwetu, twakufuliela muli Yesu? Twakuchilinga ha kukaula malongeso jenyi ni kwimbulula chilweza chenyi. Nyi twachilinga, mutununga mu jila yize yinatwale ku mwono wa mutolo.—Mateu 7:14.

10. Yika twatamba kulinga mba ‘tunyingike’ kanawa Yesu? (Yoano 17:3)

¹⁰ Mba tukaule kanawa mu ngano ja Yesu, chitangu twatamba kulinga chimwe chuma. Chuma chika chanacho? Kumunyingika.

Chipwe ngwe tuli ni miaka yinji mu umwenemwene, nihindu twatamba kusa tachi hanga tununge ni “kunyingika” Yehova ni Yesu.

Yakutulweza yize Yesu alingile ni yize ambile, nawa yakusolola chize apwile ni kwivwa. Ni ukwaso wa mikanda yino yiwana, ‘mutuzewula’  kanawa chilweza cha Yesu. (Hepre. 12:3) Mikanda yacho, yinasolola ngano jize Yesu anakatuhichikila. Kashika nyi tunazange kunyingika kanawa Yesu, twatamba kulilongesa mikanda yacho. Nyi twachilinga, mutuhasa kukaula kanawa mu ngano jenyi.

13. Kuchi muhasa kusa mwono ha sango ja mu Evanjelu?

(Yoa. 13:17) Hanyima lia kulilongesa umwe lusango wa mu Evanjelu, lihule ngwe: ‘Shina kuli yimwe nalilongesa mu Evanjelu yino, yize munguhasa kukaula ku mwono wami? Kuchi munguhasa kuzachisa lusango yono hanga ngukwase umwe mutu?’ Eseka kunyonga hali mutu yoze mukwasa. Hanyima muze mupwa ha shimbu yalita, ni zango lieswe lweza mutu wacho yize walilongesa.

(Marku 11:27-33; 12:13-34) Hakupalika cha mashimbu, Yesu yaya ku sali likwo lia tembele. Ku sali liacho, iye te kanahase kumona mishete yakusela milambu. Kota kapwile ha chihela chize te akuvuluka ngwo, chihela cha mapwo. Iye katwamine, nawa yaputuka kutala atu waze te anase milambu mu mishete. Yamona pichi anji waze te anasemo mbongo jinji.

¹⁷ Tanga Marku 12:42. Ha amwe mashimbu Yesu yamona umwe pwo. Iye te ‘tuliwa chiswale.’ (Luka 21:2) Mwono wenyi wapwile ukalu chinji, kota te chakumukalila kuwana yuma yize malikwasa nayo hita tangwa. Chipwe chocho, yaya ku umwe mushete, atu chakuhona kunyingika, iye yasamo tumbongo twaali. Mbongo jacho japwile jikepe chinji jize te kujichi kuhasa kuneha zungo muze mujinjila mu mushete.

Yehova kakuwahilila chinji, muze twakulihana hanga tumulingile ni mwono wetu weswe ni mbunge yetu yeswe.

Chino chinatale ha mashimbu ni tachi jize twakusa hanga twambujole sango lipema, tuye ku kukunguluka ni kulinga chuma cheswacho hanga tumuwayile.
