(Esyonyimbo 1:1-3) Wamabya iwuli mubuthi Mukristayo, obundi wukalindirira n’omuhwa ekiro mughalha wawu kutse mwali wawu akendisya batizibwa.—Lebaya na 3 Yoane 4.

3. (a) Timoteo mwabya athi Mukristayo, kandi mwakolesya athi eby’igha? (b) Ni nzira syahi isathu esy’erighiramu esya Paulo abwira Timoteo?

Enyuma w’emyaka nga 16, Paulo mwahandikira Timoteo athi: “Nikwa iwe wukwamirire omo myatsi eyo wakangiriribawa, n’eyo wikirirye ndeke. Kusangwa wunasi abakangirirya bawu nga babya bahi. Kandi wunasi eritsuka omwa bwana bwawu wabiriminya Amasako Abuyirire [Amasako w’Ekihebrania], awakathoka erikuha amenge w’erikuthwalha okw’ilhamibwa busana n’erikirirya Kristo Yesu.” (2 Timoteo 3:14, 15) Hano Paulo mwabugha athi Timoteo (1) mwaminya amasako abuyirire, (2) mw’ikirirya ndeke emyatsi ey’igha, (3) amabya n’amenge w’erimuthwalha okw’ilhamibwa erilhabira omw’ikirirya Kristo Yesu.
Nibya n’abaana balere kutsibu bangan’igha okwa bandu n’emyatsi y’omwa Biblia

4 Iwe ng’omubuthi Omukristayo, wanzire omwana wawu iniaminya Amasako abuyirire, ni bugha ambu Amasako w’Ekihebrania n’awe Kigiriki. Nibya n’abaana balere kutsibu bangan’igha okwa bandu n’emyatsi y’omwa Biblia. Ekithunga kya Yehova kyabirihulhukya ebitabu bingyi, esyobrokyuwa, n’esyovidiyo ebyo ababuthi bangakolesya eriwathikya abaana babu. Ni byahi okw’ebi ebiri omwa mubughe wawu? Omwana wawu atholere iniaminya ebiri omwa Biblia erithoka erighumya obughuma bwiwe na Yehova.

Ekinywe ky’Ekigiriki ekya Paulo akolesaya hano kikamanyisaya “erikakasya” kutse “eriyikethera n’eriligha ndeke-ndeke ngoku omwatsi mulebe ahikire.” Timoteo mwaminya Amasako w’Ekihebrania “eritsuka omo bwana.” Enyuma waho, mwaligha ngoku Yesu ya Masiya.

Obuli mwana atholere in’igha erighabulha “ekibuya n’ekibi,” erithoka eribya n’erikirirya. (Soma7, 8. (a) Thatha mughuma akakanganaya erighumisirizya ly’athi akakangirirya mwali wiwe? (b) Wune wathabana ekiyithawa ky’erighumisirizya omwana wawu?
7 Thomas, akabugha athi mwali wiwe ow’emyaka 11 akanamubulhaya ebibulyo nga bino: “Mbwino Yehova syangabya imwakolesya enzira y’ebindu eriyibuthukira omw’ihangika?” kutse “Busana naki ithuthasangira n’abandi omwa myatsi, ng’erikoma, eryanza eryuwania emyatsi?” Thatha oyu akayitheghaya okw’ikwama kyabwira mwali athi ikiriraye buyira. Thomas anasi ngoku omundu eriligha ekwenene siry’eriminya enzumwa y’amani, aliwe hikabya hindu hike-hike.
8 Kandi Thomas akalhangira iniakayithagha erighumisirizya akakangirirya mwali wiwe. Omo kwenene, Abakristayo abosi batholere ibabya n’omubere oyu. (Abanya Kolosai 3:12) Thomas anasi ngoku kikendi thwalha buthuku n’erikanirania ngendo nyingyi eriwathikya mwali wiwe erikakasya ngoku eby’ikirirye ni kwenene. Atholere iniaghanirya nayu ndeke okwa by’ak’igha omwa Biblia. Thomas akabugha athi: “Kutsibu-tsibu ng’okwa myatsi mikulhu-mikulhu, ingye na mukali waghe thukanza ithwaminya kwenene omwana wethu ng’an’ikirirye eby’ak’igha kandi ng’akanabiyitheghereraya. Amabulya, kikabya ikyuwene. Omo kwenene, iningend’ikwa obuba amakwama kya ligha ekindu butsir’ibulya.”

9. Wanga wathikya wuthi abaana bawu erikirirya omwa Kinywe kya Nyamuhanga?
9 Ababuthi bamakangirirya abaana babu omw’ighumisirizya, endambi iyikendi hika abaana abo ibayitheghererya ‘obughali, obuuli, obuuli bw’endatha, n’obuuli bw’eyikwa’ bw’erikirirya. (Abanya Efeso 3:18) Thwangana bakangirirya erikwamana n’emyaka yabu n’eriyitheghererya lyabu. Erikirirya lyabu omwa bya bak’igha likendibya linemughuma, ikikendi b’olhobera erilhwira okwa bya b’ikirirye embere sy’abandi, imwamuli n’ababakasoma nabu. (1 Petero 3:15) Ng’eky’erileberyako, abaana bawu bangana kolesya e Biblia erisoborera abaholi nga bakabya omwa mibereki? Bakanalhangira erisoborera lye Biblia irihikire? * (Lebaya omwatsi ahikwa.) Wibuke ngoku wukayithagha erighumisirizya eriwathikya omwana wawu erihimba erikirirya omwa Biblia, kandi akaghalha ako sikalikwira busa.—Eryibuka Ebihano 6:6, 7.
Eky’erileberyako kyawu nakyo ni kikulhu wukawathikya abaana bawu eribya n’erikirirya

Mbwino abaana baghe bakanalhangira kwenene ku nganzire Yehova?’ Sinanga lengekania indi abaana baghe bakend’ikirirya ndeke kandi ingye ising’ikirirye ndeke.”
“AMENGE W’ERIKUTHWALHA OKW’ILHAMIBWA”

11 Thwamabiriminya ngoku Timoteo (1) abya asi ndeke Amasako (2) n’eriligha ndeke emyatsi eyo abya ikirirye. Aliwe Paulo amanyisayaki akabugha athi amasako abuyirire akendi leka Timoteo iniabana ‘amenge w’erimuthwalha okw’ilhamibwa’?
12 Ekitabu Insight on the Scriptures, Volume 2, kikasoborera kithi omwa Biblia, amenge mwamuli “amaaka w’erikolesya ebya wasi n’eriyitheghererya ndeke ngoku wanga rwanisya ebitsibu, eriyihighulha kutse erighunza h’ebitsibu, eriberererya ebilhubirirwa, kutse erihabulha abandi. Oyuthawithe menge akabya ini mukiru.” E Biblia yikabugha yithi “obukiru bubohere omwa muthima w’omwana.” (Emisyo 22:15) Kundi oyuthawithe menge akabya ini mukiru, amenge ni kiminyikalho ky’erikangania erikulha. Omundu akakulha bunyakirimu kundi akubaha Yehova n’erimwowa, butsira busana n’erikulha omo myaka.—Soma Esyonyimbo 111:10.
13. Abalere banga kangania bathi ku bawithe amenge awakabathwalha okw’ilhamibwa?
13 Abalere abanakulire bunyakirimu sibali “ghusawa eyi n’eyi omwa bisunda by’engetse n’erihekwa ehandi n’ehandi” omwa syongumbu syabu kutse akahathikano k’abandi balere ng’ibo.

(Abanya Filipi 2:12) Amenge ng’ayo akayithaghisibawa erithoka erilhamibwa. (Soma Emisyo 24:14.) Wanga wathikya wuthi abaana bawu eribya n’amenge ng’ayo? Wutholere iwalhangira wuthi bakaminya ebya wimanireko. Omwa bya wukakolha n’eribugha, batholere ibalhangira ku wunemulengaho erighendera okwa misingyi ye Biblia.—Abanya Roma 2:21-23.
Busana naki ni ky’omughaso omubuthi erilholha embere erihiraho akaghalha? (Lebaya enungu 14-18)

Nangaminya indi ndeke-ndeke ngoku emisingyi ye Biblia yiriho busana n’erinyighasira?’—15 Omwana wawu amabya iniakanza eribatizibwa, muwathikaye erilengekania ndeke okwa lhukwamirwa olhukasa busana n’eribatizibwa. Akayowa athi okwa lhukwamirwa olho? Muli mighaso yahi? Ebitsibu by’ebyahi? Busana naki emighaso yilengire ebitsibu? (Mariko 10:29, 30) Ni kikulhu erighanirya ndeke okwa myatsi eyi athe abatizibwa. Wathikaya omwana wawu erighanirya okwa mighisa y’eribya mwowa n’ebitsibu ebikalhua omw’ithendibya mwowa. Neryo aho iniangan’ikirirya ngoku erighendera okwa misingyi ye Biblia likendi mughasira mughulhu wosi.—Eryibuka Ebihano 30:19, 20.
