1, 2. (a) Ihi ya zwela Jezú ni maxibulu mê mu usuku ande dya kufwa? (Tala o foto ya dyanga.) (b) Mukonda dyahi kima kyambote phala etu kulembalala o kima ki tu bhangesa kuboka? (c) Ihi i twa-nda dilonga?

MU USUKU ande dya kufwa kwê, Jezú wa zwela kyavulu ni jipoxolo jê. Wa a tangela kwila wa a zolele kyavulu. Wa a tela kifika kya muxi wa muvidi, ki twa dilongo mu semana ya tundu-mu. Jezú wa mesenene kuswinisa o maxibulu mê ‘kusuluka ni kubhana ibundu yavulu,’ kifwa kukolokota ni kuboka o njimbu yambote ya Utuminu.—Nzuá 15:8.

² Maji, Jezú ka a tangela ngó ihi ya bhingile kubhanga, wa a tangela we mukonda dyahi a bhingile ku ki bhanga. Mwene wa a londekesa o ima yeji kwa bhangesa ku suluka ni kuboka. Kima kyambote we etu ku lembalala mukonda dyahi twa bhingi ku suluka ni kubhana “umbangi ku akwa jixi joso.” (Matesu 24:13, 14) Mu milongi yiyi, twa-nda dilonga ima i wana mu Bibidya, i tu bhangesa kusuluka ni kuboka. Twa-nda dilonga we mawjitu a wana a tunda kwa Jihova, a tu kwatekesa kusuluka ni kubhana ibundu.

3. (a) Kala kilondekesa o divulu dya Nzuá 15:8, kyebhi o kima kya beta-o-kota ki tu bhangesa kuboka? (b) Ihi ilombolola o ibundu ya muxi wa muvidi wa kifika kya Jezú? Mukonda dyahi o kisokesu kiki kya tokala mwene?

³ O kima kya beta o kota ki tu bhangesa kuboka kyenyiki: Twa mesena kuximana Jihova ni kuzelesa o dijina dyê. (Tanga Nzuá 15:1, 8.) Kyoso Jezú kya te o kifika kya muxi wa muvidi, mwene wa sokesa Jihova ni kidimakaji, wa kunu mividi. Jezú wambe kwila, mwene wexile o kilombolwelu kya muxi wa muvidi, o akayedi’ê exile o jithangu. (Nzuá 15:5) Mu kifika kiki, o ibundu ya muxi wa muvidi, ilombolola o ibundu yeji bhana o maxibulu mba o kikalakalu kya kuboka kyeji bhanga. Jezú wambela o jipoxolo jê: “Kyene ki bhekela athu kuximana Tata yami, se enu mwa bhana ibundu yavulu.” Se mividi i bhana ibundu yambote, kijingu phala o kidimakaji. Kyene kimoxi we, kyoso ki tu bhanga yoso mu kuboka o njimbu ya Utuminu, tu bhana kijingu kwa Jihova.—Matesu 25:20-23.

4. (a) Kyebhi ki tu tena kuzelesa o dijina dya Nzambi? (b) Kyebhi ki u divwa ni ujitu wa kuzelesa o dijina dya Nzambi u wala na-u?

⁴ Dijina dya Nzambi, dijina dikola kyá. Ki tu tena kubhanga kima phala ku ki kôlesa dingi. Mu kiki-phe, kyebhi ki tu zelesa o dijina dya Nzambi kyoso ki tu boka? Tala ya zwela polofeta Izaya: “Kôlesenu Jihova dya Ilômbo yeta.” (Izaia 8:13) Tu zelesa o dijina dya Nzambi Jihova, kyoso ki tu xikina kwila dya túndu o majina moso, ni kyoso ki tu kwatekesa akwetu kutendela mukonda dyahi didi dijina dikôla. (Matesu 6:9) Mu kifika, kyoso ki tu longa o athu o kidi kya lungu ni idifwa ya Jihova, ni vondadi yê phala o athu kutambula o mwenyu wa kalela-ku mu Palaízu mu ixi, twa mu a kwatekesa kumona kwila, ima yoso yayibha ya tatela Satanaji kwa Jihova, makutu. (Dimatekenu 3:1-5) Tu zelesa we o dijina dya Nzambi, kyoso ki tu kwatekesa athu kwijiya kwila, Jihova kya mu fwama o “kutambula fuma ni ujitu, ni unéne.” (Dijingunuinu 4:11) Rune, wexile muboki wa thembu yoso mu 16 kya mivu wambe: “Kwijiya kwila, a ngi bhana o kithangana kya kubhana umbangi wa lungu ni Mubhangi wa ngongo yoso, kya ngi bhangesa kulondekesa kisakidilu. Kiki kya ngi bhana hanji ya kusuluka ni kuboka.”

5. (a) Kyebhi o kima kyo tange mu divulu dya Nzuá 15:9, 10, ki tu bhangesa kuboka? Kyebhi Jezú kya kwatekesa o maxibulu mê kutendela kwila eji bhinga kukolokota?

⁵ Tanga Nzwá 15:9, 10. O kima kya kayadi ki tu bhangesa kuboka o Utuminu, o henda yetu kwa Jihova ni kwa Jezú. (Marku 12:30; Nzuá 14:15) ‘Kale-nu mu henda yami’ kyene kya tendelesa Jezú ku maxibulu mê.’ Mukonda dyahi Jezú wa zwela kiki? Mwene wejidile kwila, o maxibulu mê eji bhinga kukolokota phala kusuluka mu ukidistá wa kidi. Mu divulu dya Nzwá 15:4-10, tu mona kwila, Jezú wa tumbula lwavulu o kizwelu ‘kalenu’ phala kukwatekesa o maxibulu  mê kutendela kwila, eji bhinga kukolokota.

6. Kyebhi ki tu londekesa kwila, twa mesena kukala mu henda ya Kidistu?

⁶ Kyebhi ki tu londekesa kwila, twa mesena kukala mu henda ya Kidistu ni ku tu xikina kwala mwene? Mu ku mu belesela. Jezú wa mu tu bhinga ngó phala kubhanga o ima ya bhange mwene. Mwene wambe: ‘Ng’aluka o ijila ya Tata yami, eme ngala mu henda yê.’ Jezú wa tu xila phangu.—Nzuá 13:15.

7. Kyebhi o henda ya lungu ni kubelesela?

⁷ Jezú wa jimbulula kyambote kyebhi o henda ya lungu ni kubelesela, kyoso kyambe: “Woso wa kwata o ijila yami, anga u i aluka, mwène muthu wa ngi zola.” (Nzuá 14:21) O ijila ya Jezú i tunda kwa Tat’ê. Kyenyiki, kyoso ki tu belesela o kitumu kya Jezú kya kuboka, twa mu londekesa we kwila, twa zolo Jihova. (Matesu 17:5; Nzuá 8:28) Kyoso ki tu londekesa o henda yetu kwa Jihova ni Jezú, ene a suluka mu ku tu zola.

8, 9. (a) Kima kyebhi dingi ki tu bhangesa kuboka? (b) Kyebhi o izwelu ya Jihova i tu sanga mu divulu dya Izekiiele 3:18, 19 ni 18:23 i tu kwatekesa kuboka?

⁸ O kima kya katatu ki tu bhangesa kuboka kiki: Twa mesena kudimuna o athu ya lungu ni kizuwa kya Jihova kya mu kwiza ni lusolo. Nowé a mu tumbula mu Bibidya kala “mujimbwidi.” (Tanga 2 Phetele 2:5.) Ande dya dilúvyu dyonene, Nowé wa tokalele kudimuna o athu mukonda dya kibwika. Mukonda dyahi tu zwela kiki? Mukonda Jezú wambe: “Kya kexile mu izuw’omo, kyoso dilúviu kiluwa diza, a kala mu kúdya, a kala mu kúnwa, ahatu ni mala a kala mu sakana, a bhana mu sakana, katé kizuwa kya bokona Nowé mu álaka. Kejidile kima katé dilúvyu dya menya ki dya tula dí dya a kungulula ene oso. Ni kya kà tukuluka Mon’a Muthu we kyene. (Matesu 24:38, 39) Sumbala athu avulu a kambe kwívwa Nowé, mwene wa suluka ni ku boka o njimbu ya ku dimuna ya mu bhele Jihova.

⁹ Lelu, etu tu boka o njimbu ya Utuminu phala kubhana kithangana ku athu kya kwijiya ya mesena Nzambi phala o athu ku hádya. Kala Jihova, etu twa mesena ni muxima woso kwila, athu oso evwa o njimbu yambote ni “a kole mwenyu.” (Izekiiele 18:23) Kyoso ki tu boka nzo ni inzo, ni mu ididi mu bhita athu avulu, twamu dimuna oso u tu tena kwila, o Utuminu wa Nzambi  wa-nda kwiza ni ku bwikisa o athu a yibha.—Izekiiele 3:18, 19; Daniiele 2:44; Dijingunuinu 14:6, 7.

10. (a) Kyebhi o kima kyo tange mu divulu dya Matesu 22:39, ki tu bhangesa kuboka? (b) Kyebhi Phawlu ni Sila kya kwatekesa o kasalelu wa kexile mu langa o kaleya ku Filipe?

¹⁰ O kima kya Kawana ki tu bhangesa kusuluka ni kuboka o henda yetu kwa athu. (Matesu 22:39) O henda yiyi i tu kwatekesa ku suluka ni kuboka, mukonda twejiya o kwila o athu nange a tena kulungulula o ibanzelu yâ, kyoso o ima ku myenyu yâ i lunguluka. Mu kifika, mu mbonge ya Filipe, Phawlu ni Sila a a tele mu kaleya kwala o jinguma. Maji mu kaxi ka usuku kwa bhiti kitungutu kya mavu, o kaleya anga ka tunguta katé ku madisésa, o mabhitu moso ma jikuka. O kasalelu mba kajisabhi ka kexile mu langa o kaleya, woma wa mu kwata, yú wa mesenene kudijibha, mukonda wa fika kwila o jipelêzu ja jituka, jí ja lenge. Maji Phawlu-phe wa mu handekela, wixi: “Ku di bhange kyokyo!” O kasalelu webhudisa: ‘Eme ngi bhanga kyebhi phala kubhuluka?’ Phawlu ni Sila a mu tangela exi: “Xikana Ngana Jezú, nda u bhuluke.”—Ikalakalu 16:25-34.

11, 12. (a) Ihi i tu longa o musoso wa kasalelu ya lungu ni ukunji wetu? (b) Mukonda dyahi twa mesena kusuluka ni kuboka?

¹¹ Disá dyahi di tu longa o musoso wa kasalelu wa lungu ni kikalakalu kya kuboka? O kasalelu wa lungulula ngó o ibanzelu yê, wa bhingi ngó o kikwatekesu kyoso kya bhiti o kitungutu mu kaleya. Kyene we kimoxi, say athu a ditunu kudilonga o njimbu ya Bibidya a tena ku lungulula o ixinganeku yâ, ni ku bhinga ki kwatekesu kyoso kya bhita ni mavuwa ku mwenyu. Nange a luwala mukonda dya ku a kaya ku salu mba a di senge. Amukwa a tena kuluwala mukonda dya kukata mba kufunda ndandu. Kyoso ima yiyi ki i bhita, o athu a mateka kudibhanga ibhwidisu ya lungu ni mwenyu, ka banzele kudibhanga yú. Nange ene a dibhwidisa, ‘Eme ngi bhanga kyebhi phala kubhuluka?’ Ene a tena kyâ kumesena kudilonga o njimbu ya lungu ni kidyelelu ki twala na-kyu, mu veji ya dyanga.

¹² Kyenyiki-phe, se tu suluka ni kuboka, twa-nda tena kusanga o athu a mesena kuxikina o kiximbakatesu ki twa a bhekela. (Izaia 61:1) Charlotte, wexile muboki wa thembu yoso mu 38 dya mivu wambe: “O athu lelu a jimbidila. Ene a bhindamena kwívwa o njimbu yambote.” Ejvor, wexile muboki wa thembu yoso mu 34 dya mivu wambe we: “Mu izuwa ya lelu, athu avulu ala ni kikote ku muxima. Eme nga mesenene mwene kwa kwatekesa. Kiki kya ngi swinisa kuboka.” Sé phata, o henda yetu kwa athu, kima ki tu bhangesa o kuboka!

13, 14. (a) Ujitu webhi u tu sanga mu divulu dya Nzuá 15:11? (b) Kyebhi ki tu tena kusanguluka kala kya sangulukile Jezú? (c) O kusanguluka ku tu kwatekesa kyebhi mu ukunji?

¹³ Mu usuku ande dya kufwa kwê, Jezú wa tumbula we mawjitu eji kwatekesa o maxibulu mê ku suluka ni kubhana ibundu. Mawjitu enyá ihi? A tu kwatekesa kyebhi?

¹⁴ O ujitu wa kisangusangu. O kwila o sidivisu ya kuboka dibunda dya neme phala etu? Kana. Kyoso Jezú kya te o kifika kya muvidi, mwene wambe kwila, kyoso ki tu boka tu sanguluka kala kya sangulukile  mwene. (Tanga Nzuá 15:11.) Kiki ki bhita kyebhi? Lembalala kwila, mu kifika kya muxi wa muvidi, Jezú wa di sokesa ni muvidi, o maxibulu wa a sokesa ni jithangu. O jithangu jya muvidi, ji tambula ngó menya ni ima ya mukwa ya tokala, se ji naminina ku muxi. Se tu naminina we kwa Jezú, twa-nda kala ni kusanguluka kwala na-ku mwene, o kusanguluka kwijila mu kubhanga o vondadi ya Nzambi. (Nzuá 4:34; 17:13; 1 Phetele 2:21) Hanne, wexile muboki wa thembu yoso mu 40 a mivu, wambe we: “O kusanguluka ku ngi kala na-ku ku muxima kyoso ki ngi tunda mu boka, kwa ngi swinisa kusuluka mu sidivisu yami kwa Jihova.” O kusanguluka ku tu bhana nguzu ya kusuluka, né mwene se athu avulu ka mu tu bhana mátwi.—Matesu 5:10-12.

15. (a) Mu divulu dya Nzuá 14:27, tu sanga-mu ujitu webhi? (b) Kyebhi o kutululuka ku tu kwatekesa kubhana ibundu?

¹⁵ O ujitu wa kutululuka. (Tanga Nzuá 14:27.) Mu usuku ande dya kufwa kwê, Jezú wambela o jipoxolo jê: ‘nga mi bhana o ku tululuka kwami.’ O kutululuka kwa Jezú ku tu kwatekesa kyebhi mu sedivisu ya kuboka? Kyoso ki tu suluka mu kuboka, muxima wetu u tululuka mukonda twejiya kwila twa mu sangulukisa Jihova ni Jezú. (Jisálamu 149:4; Loma 5:3, 4; Kolose 3:15) Ulf, wa kalakala kala muboki wa thembu yoso mu 45 a mivu, wambe: “O sidivisu ya kuboka i ngi bhangesa kubhwila, maji i ngi bhekela kisangusangu kya kidi, i bhana we valolo ku mwenyu wami.” Tu sakidila kyavulu mu kusanga o kutululuka kwa kidi, ku nangenena!

16. (a) Ujitu webhi u tu sanga mu divulu dya Nzuá 15:15? (b) Kyebhi o jipoxolo kyeji kolesa o ukamba wâ ni Jezú?

¹⁶ Ujitu wa ukamba. Kyoso Jezú kyambela o maxibulu mê kwila, wa mesenene o kusanguluka kwâ, mwene wa jimbulula mukonda dyahi kima kyambote kulondekesa henda ya kidi. (Nzuá 15:11-13) Mwene wambe: “Nga m’ixana-phe mu makamba.” Ujitu wa dikota kukala dikamba dya Jezú! Maji ihi ya tokalele kubhanga o jipoxolo phala kukala mu ukamba yú? Jezú wa jimbulula: “Eme nga mi tumu ni mwende ni kubhana ibundu.” (Tanga Nzuá 15:14-16.) Kiki kilombolola, kusuluka ni kuboka. Mu kubhita mivu iyadi, Jezú wambela o jipoxolo jê: “O ki muya, mwenda ni kuta Maka, kwila:  ‘Utuminu wa Dyulu wa zukama.’” (Matesu 10:7) Kiki kyene kya bhangesa Jezú kuswinisa o maxibulu mê kukolokota ni kuboka, mu usuku ande dya kufwa. (Matesu 24:13; Marku 3:14) Sé phata Jezú wejidile kwila, kweji bhonza kukumbidila o kitendelesu kyê. Maji ene eji tena kubhanga kiki, ni kukolesa o ukamba yú. Kyebhi? Ni kikwatekesu kya ujitu wa mukwá.

17, 18. (a) Mu divulu dya Nzuá 14:27, tu sanga-mu ujitu webhi? (b) O ujitu yú wa kwatekesa kyebhi o jipoxolo? (c) Ujitu webhi u tu kwatekesa lelu?

¹⁷ Itambwijilu ya misambu yetu. Jezú wambe: “Bhingenu yoso i mwa mesena, a mi bhana-yu.” (Nzuá 15:7, 16) O kikanenu kya Jezú nange kya kolokotesa o jipoxolo! * (Tala kulwiji.) Mu kidi, o jipoxolo ka kexile mu tendela kyambote kwila, kwa kambele ngó Jezú weji fwa. Maji o kufwa kwê ki kulombolola kwila, ene eji kamba kikwatekesu. Jihova wa kexile polondo phala kutambwijila o misambu yâ ni ku a kwatekesa mu kikalakalu kya kuboka. Kyene mwene kya bhange. Ki kubhiti thembu yavulu kyoso Jezú kyafu, o jipoxolo a bhingi kuswina kwa Jihova, Jihova wa tambwijila o misambu yâ.—Ikalakalu 4:29, 31.

¹⁸ Kiki kyene we kyene mu bhita lelu. Kyoso ki tu kolokota mu sidivisu ya kuboka, tu kala tu makamba a Jezú. Se kya mu tu bhonza kuboka, tu tena kudyelela kwila, Jihova wa-nda tambwijila kyoso ki tu mu bhinga kikwatekesu mu musambu. (Filipe 4:13) Tu sakidila kyavulu Jihova mu kutambwijila o misambu yetu, tu sakidila mu kukala tu makamba a Jezú. O mawjitu a tunda kwa Jihova, a tu bhana nguzu phala ni tu suluke mu kubhana ibundu.—Tiiaku 1:17.

19. (a) Mukonda dyahi twa mu suluka ni kuboka? (b) Ihi i tu kwatekesa kuzubha o kikalakalu kya tu bhana Nzambi?

¹⁹ Mu milongi yiyi, twa dilongo ima itatu i tu kwatekesa kusuluka mu kuboka: Kuximana Jihova, kuzelesa o dijina dyê, kulondekesa o henda yetu kwa Jihova ni kwa Jezú, kudimuna ni kulondekesa henda yetu ku athu. Twa dilongo we ya lungu ni mawjitu a wana: kisangusangu, kutululuka, ukamba ni itambwijilu ya misambu yetu. O mawjitu yâ, a tu bhana nguzu ya kuzubha o kikalakalu kya tu bhana Nzambi. Jihova u sanguluka kyavulu kyoso kya tu mona twa mu kalakala ni nguzu yoso “phala kwima ibundu”!
