1. (a) Kufuma tuhu kushankulu ambuña Nzambi eluka nawudi hakudizisha amakwawu, nawa chumichi chinateli kuzatika ñahi makonu? (b) Yumanyi yitukuhanjeka muchinu chibaaba?

 KUFUMA tuhu kushankulu ambuña Nzambi eluka nawu kudizisha amakwawu mwafumaña yuma yayiwahi. Nkakulula Abarama ‘watwalili antu jindi amayala afundishiliyi njita’ kulonda amupulwishi Loti nawa awa mayala amupulwishili. (Kutach. 14:14-16) Mumafuku aMwanta Davidi, akwakwimbila mwitala daNzambi ‘afundishiluwu kumwimbila Yehova’ amuhamekeli Nzambi. (1 Kushi. 25:7) Makonu, tunakulwa njita yakuspiritu naSatana niantu jindi. (Efwes. 6:11-13) Tunakuzata cheñi nañovu kulonda tumuhamekeña Yehova. (Heb. 13:15, 16) Dichi, kufwana ambuña Nzambi akushankulu, hakwila tuzati chiwahi atela kutudizisha. Muchipompelu, Yehova wayinka aeluda mudimu wakudizisha amakwawu. (2 Tim. 2:2) Njilanyi jazatishañawu aeluda akuluka yitembi hakudizisha amana kwetu hakwila ashikuhu kwakamena nyikoku?

2. Eluda watela kwiladi henohu kanda yamudizishi mana kwetu wabula kushikahu yuma yikwawu, nawa muloñadi?

² Chineli mudi aeluda anateli kuyesekeja nandimi. Henohu kanda yatumbi mbutu, ndimi washaña wushi hamaseki kulonda  mbutu yikuli chiwahi. Munjila yoyimu, henohu kanda mumudizishi mana kwetu wabula kushikahu yuma yikwawu, mwatela kwiluka nsona jikwawu jimwatela kumuleja kulonda muloñeshi muchima windi hayuma yayivulu yikudizayi.—1 Tim. 4:6.

3. (a) Indi eluda nateli kuzatisha ñahi mazu aYesu ekala haMaku 12:29, 30 hakumukwasha kadizi? (b) Kulomba kukulombayi eluda kunateli kumukwasha ñahi kadizi?

³ Hakwila mwiluki yitoñojoka niyililu yindi kutalisha hansañu yalala yaWanta, mwatela kumwihula nenu, ‘Indi kudihana kwenu kudi Yehova kunahimpi chihandilu chenu munjilanyi?’ Ilu lwihu lunateli kuleñela kutachika kuhanjeka hachuma chaleñelaña mudimu wetu wajila tuwuzateña namuchima wejima. (Tañenu Maku 12:29, 30.) Chimwamanisha kuhanjeka muniyi njila munateli kulomba kudi Yehova kulonda yamwinki kadizi spiritu yindi yajila hakwila yimukwashi kudiza chiwahi. Chinateli kumukolesha mana kwetu neyi yatiya chimukumulombelelaku.

4. (a) Shimunenu yakutalilahu yamuBayibolu yinateli kumuleñela kadizi kupama kuspiritu. (b) Chikonkwanyi chikwetuwu aeluda hakudizisha amakwawu?

⁴ Hakutachika kumudizisha, munateli kuhanjeka hansañu yamuBayibolu yinateli kumuleñela kadizi kwiluka kulema kwakwikala namuchima wakudihana, kumukuhwelela nikudizoza. (1 Anya. 19:19-21; Nehe. 7:2; 13:13; Yil. 18:24-26) Yililu yeniyi yinateli kumukwasha kadizi neyi chochakwashaña wushi iseki. Yikumukwasha kukula swayi kuspiritu. Eluda wakuFrance wejina daJean-Claude wahosheli nindi: “Chikonkwanyi chami chakudizisha kadizi chekala chakumukwasha kupama kuspiritu. Nekalaña nampinji yakutañila hamu nsona yimu nakadizi kulonda ‘nitoneshi mesu’ akadizi yeluki ‘yuma yakuhayamisha’ yekala Mwizu daNzambi.” (Mas. 119:18) Njilanyi jikwawu jimunateli kumukoleshelamu kadizi?

5. (a) Indi kuhanjeka nakadizi hayikonkwanyi yakuspiritu kwalemenadi? (b) Muloñadi aeluda chiyatela kudizishilawu amana kwetu achidi atwansi? (Talenu tumazu twaheshina.)

⁵ Mwihulenu kadizi nenu, ‘Yikonkwanyi yakuspiritu yiwukweti?’ Neyi hakweti chikonkwanyi chakuspirituku, mukwashenu yemiki chikonkwanyi chimu chinateli kushikijayi. Mulejenu namuzañalu chikonkwanyi chakuspiritu chimwemikili nimuzañalu wumwatiyili hampinji yimwachishikijili. Hela chakwila iyi njila yinateli kumwekana neyi yamukunkulwayi, ilana yakwashanaña. Eluda nawa payiniya wejina daVictor, wakuAfrica, wanukaña nindi: “Hinachidiña kansi eluda wañihwili malwihu antesha amawahi kutalisha hayikonkwanyi yami. Ana malwihu ankwashili kutachika kutoñojoka chikupu hamudimu wami wakushimwina.” Aeluda akuluka yitembi eluka kulema kwakutachika kudizisha amana kwetu achidi anyanya kuhitila mukuyinka nyidimu yamuchipompelu yatela kuzatawu kwesekeja nayaaka yikwetuwu. Neyi muyidizisha muniyi njila henohu achidi atwansi chikuyikwasha kushinshika hayikonkwanyi yakuspiritu yinateli kuyikwasha neyi anakuli dehi hampinji yakamonañawu yuma yayivulu yaluwañeshaña.—Tañenu Masamu 71:5, 17. *

6. Chumanyi chalemesheliyi Yesu hakudizisha amakwawu?

⁶ Munateli cheñi kumusañumuna kadizi kwikala nampwila yakuzata bayi neyi kuhitila mukumulumbulwila hohu yuma yatela kwilayuku, ilaña nimuloña wukuletesha yeli  mwenomu. Neyi mumuleja muloña watelela kwililayi mwenomu, mukumwimbujola Ntañishi Muneni Yesu. Chakutalilahu, henohu kanda yayinki apostolu indi mudimu wakwilisha atumbanji, Yesu wayilejeli muloña waweni watela kwovwahilawu. Wahosheli nindi: “Ñovu jamwiwulu nijahamaseki jejima anajinyinki.” Wabombeleluhu cheñi nindi: ‘Yenu mwakelishi atumbanji munyunza yejima.’ (Mat. 28:18, 19) Munateli kumwimbujola ñahi Yesu hakudizisha amakwawu?

7, 8. (a) Indi aeluda makonu anateli kumwimbujola ñahi Yesu hakudizisha amakwawu? (b) Indi kumuhameka kadizi kwalemenadi? (c) Njilanyi jinateli kukwasha aeluda kudizisha amakwawu? (Talenu chikasha chinakwila nawu, “ Chakudizisha Antu Amakwawu.”)

⁷ Mulumbulwilenu kadizi muloña washimunawu muNsona hayuma yinamuleji kwila. Neyi mwila mwenimu dikwila nawu munakumudizisha chakuzatisha nshimbi jamuBayibolu. Chakutalilahu, neyi munamwinki mana kwetu mudimu wakuhemba njila yaya Hetala daWanta nawunyonji, munateli kutaña nsona yaTitusa 2:10 nakumulumbulwila nenu mudimu wumunamwinki wakuwahisha Itala daWanta wakwashañaku ‘kuwahisha ntañishilu yaNzambi, Chamwinu chetu.’ Mulejenu cheñi kadizi kwakamenaku atushinakaji amuchipompelu nichiyinateli kuhetelamu neyi yazataña mudimu windi chiwahi. Kumuleja kadizi muniyi njila hampinji yimunakumudizisha chikumukwasha kusha maana hakukwasha antu bayi neyi hakuhemba hohu nshimbuku. Wukuzañalalaña hakumona amana kwetu niahela muchipompelu chiyanakuhetelamu munyidimu yinakuzatayi.

⁸ Mwatela cheñi kumuhameka kadizi chinakuzatishayi yuma yimunakumuleja. Kwila mwenimu kwalemenadi? Kumuhameka kadizi chakufuma hamuchima chidi neyi munakutukumwina mbutu, kukumukwasha kuzata chiwahi.—Esekejenu Matewu 3:17.

9. (a) Kukalanyi kwamonañawu aeluda ekala mumatuña aheta kutalisha hakudizisha amakwawu? (b) Muloñadi amana kwetu atwansi amakwawu chiyabulilañawu kulemesha chalala muchihandilu chawu?

⁹ Aeluda ekala mumatuña mwekala maheta anateli kumona kukala kukwawu, kwakukolesha amana kwetu apapatishewa dehi adi muyaaka yamuma 20 hela 30 hakwila azateña nyidimu yamuchipompelu. Twehwili aeluda akuluka yitembi amumatuña aheta 20 kulonda atuleji muloña waleteshaña amana kwetu atwansi kubula kushaku maana kunyidimu yamuchipompelu. Ñakwilu yitwatambwilili yadiña yoyimu, yakwila nawu: Hampinji yakulileñawu, atwansi amakwawu hiyayikwashileña kufwila  yuma yakuspirituku. Atwansi amakwawu, akeñeleña kwimika yikonkwanyi yakuspiritu, ilaña anvwali jawu adiña nakuyikolesha kufwila nyidimu yakumujimba. Atwansi amuchidiwu hiyalemesheli chalala muchihandilu chawu chikupuku.—Mat. 10:24.

10, 11. (a) Indi eluda nateli kumukwasha ñahi mana kwetu chovu-chovu wunakumwekana neyi nakujinoka kulonda yihimpi yitoñojoka yindi? (b) Nsañwinyi yamuBayibolu yinateli kuzatishayi eluda hakumukwasha iwu mana kwetu, nawa muloñadi? (Talenu tumazu twaheshina.)

¹⁰ Neyi mana kwetu nakumwekana neyi nakujinoka, hakuhita mpinji hakwila muhimpi yitoñojoka yindi, ilaña munateli kumukwasha. Neyi chochololañayi ndimi mutondu windi kulonda wukuli chiwahi, anenu nawu munateli kukwasha amana kwetu chovu-chovu kulonda eluki kulema kwakuhimpa yitoñojoka yawu nakwiteja nyidimu yamuchipompelu. Hanu dinu munateli kwilaña?

¹¹ Ikalenu nampinji yakwikala nawubwambu nanowu mana kwetu. Mana kwetu watela kwiluka nindi niyena wukweti mudimu muchipompelu. Dichi mukuhita kwampinji, mwatela kuhanjeka nindi hansona jamuBayibolu nikumukwasha kulonda atoñojoki hakudihana kwadihaniniyi kudi Yehova. (Mukwa. 5:4; Isa. 6:8; Mat. 6:24, 33; Luka 9:57-62; 1 Kor. 15:58; 2 Kor. 5:15; 13:5) Munateli kumwihula nenu, ‘Yumanyi yiwamukanini Yehova hampinji yiwadihanini kudi yena?’ Esekenu kusañumuna muchima windi kuhitila mukumwihula nenu, ‘Wunakutoñojoka neyi Yehova watiyili ñahi chiwapapatisheweli?’ (Yish. 27:11) ‘Indi Satana watiyili ñahi?’ (1 Pet. 5:8) Bayi mudiwula yuma yikufuma mudi mana kwetu neyi mumutañila chiwahi nsañu yamuBayibolu.—Tañenu Aheberu 4:12. *

12, 13. (a) Chililwinyi chamwekesheliyi Elisha hakwikala kadizi? (b) Indi Yehova wamukiswilili ñahi Elisha hakwikala washinshika?

¹² Enu amana kwetu atwansi, ninenu mwatela kuzata nyidimu muchipompelu. Chililwinyi chikuyikwasha kuzata chiwahi? Hakwila twakuli, tushinshikenu yuma yamwekeni muchihandilu chakadizi wakunyaka.

¹³ Kwakwihi nayaaka 3,000 yinahituhu, kaprofwetu Elija wamwilili kansi Elisha nindi yekali kalama kindi. Chakadi nikushintajala, Elisha wetejeli iwu mudimu nawa wamukwashileñaku ona kashinakaji nyidimu yikwawu. (2 Anya. 3:11) Chelili yaaka yitanu nachimu yakumudizisha hiyikumana, Elisha welukili nindi Elija keña yamanishi kuzata mudimu windi muIsarela. Hayina mpinji Elija wamulejeli ibwambu dindi wadizishiliyi chiwahi nindi yaleki kumulondela, ilana Elisha wamulejeli mapampa kasatu nindi: “Hinukukushiyaku.” Wafuukwiluhu kubula kumushiya ntañishi yindi. Mukuhita kwampinji Yehova wamukiswilili Elisha hakashinshi kindi kamwekesheliyi kuhitila mukumona Elija chamuhukwiluwu muchihayamisha.—2 Anya. 2:1-12.

14. (a) Indi atudizi makonu anateli kumwimbujola ñahi Elisha? (b) Muloñadi chichalemena kadizi kwikala washinshika?

¹⁴ Munateli kumwimbujola ñahi Elisha makonu? Nyakalenuña kwiteja nyidimu, kushilahu ninyidimu yamwekenaña neyi yalema wanyi. Monenuña ntañishi yenu nenu hibwambu denu nawa musakililenuña chinakuzatayi nañovu hakuyikwasha. Chimukumwakula chikumwekesha nawu: “Hinukukushiyaku.” Sweje-e dinu, ikalenu ashinshika hampinji yimunakuzata mudimu wejima wunayinkuwu. Chumichi chalemenadi? Muloña neyi mumwekesha nenu mwashinshika nawa ayikuhwelela, aeluda akwiluka nawu Yehova nakukeña kuyinka  nyidimu yikwawu yamuchipompelu.—Mas. 101:6; tañenu 2 Timotewu 2:2.

15, 16. (a) Munjilanyi Elisha mwamulemesheleliyi ntañishi yindi? (Talenu mwevulu wakutachikilahu.) (b) Indi Elisha wakolesheli ñahi akwawu atuprofwetu?

¹⁵ Nsañu yahosha hadi nswana yaElija, Elisha, yamwekeshaña cheñi nawu amana kwetu makonu atela kulemesha aeluda akuluka yitembi. Chelili aElija naElisha afumi kuYeriku kwayiluwu nakuhempula izanvu dawatuprofwetu, awa mayala ayedi ayili kuKaloña Yodana. Chashikiluwu kukaloña, ‘Elija hakunona ihina dindi hakudivuñavuña hakweta hamenji menji hiyakwambuka hakachi hiyakuzambuka heseki dawuma.’ Chelili anazambuki dehi kaloña heseki dawuma, awa amayala atwalekeluhu ‘kuhanjeka iku anakuya.’ Elisha hatoñojokeli nindi neluki dehi yuma yejimaku. Elisha watwalekeluhu kutiyilila mazu ejima amulejeleñawu kudi ntañishi yindi kushika nimpinji yamuhukwiluwu. Nkumininaku, Elija amuhukwili muchihayamisha. Chafuntiliyi kuchikumu chaYodana, Elisha weteli hamenji nehina daElija, hakutambika nindi, “Yehova Nzambi yaElija wudi kudihi?” Menji ambukili cheñi hakachi.—2 Anya. 2:8-14.

¹⁶ Komana munamoni nenu chihayamisha chatachi chakoñeliyi Elisha chadifwanini nachihayamisha chakukumishaku chakoñeliyi Elija? Chumichi chatudizishañadi? Elisha hatoñojokeleña nindi chineli yena diyi washaliluhu wateleleli kuzata yuma munjila yambukaku nachazatileñayi Elijaku. Ilana, Elisha watwalekeluhu nakwimbujola Elija chazatileñayi mudimu windi, dikwila nawu wamulemesheli ntañishi yindi nawa chumichi chakwashili akwawu atuprofwetu. (2 Anya. 2:15) Elisha wazatili mudimu windi wawukaprofwetu hadi yaaka 60, nawa Yehova wamukwashili kukoña yihayamisha yayivulu kubadika niyakoñeliyi Elija. Chumanyi chiyanateli kudizilaku atudizi makonu?

17. (a) Atudizi makonu anateli kwimbujola ñahi yililu yaElisha? (b) Mukuhita kwampinji, Yehova nateli kuzatisha ñahi atudizi ashinshika?

¹⁷ Bayi mutoñojoka nenu chayinkawu kuzata nyidimu muchipompelu, mwatela kushikena dakuhimpa yuma kulonda muzateña munjila yambukaku nachazatileñawu akwenuku. Ilukenu nenu hiyenu mwatela kuhimpa yuma kulonda mwili chimunakukeñaku, ilaña chipompelu dichi chatela kuhimpa yuma kwesekeja nanshimbi yahanaña kuloñesha kwaYehova. Kufwana Elisha welili yuma yakukolesha akwawu atuprofwetu kuhitila mukumulemesha ntañishi yindi Elija nikuzatisha njila jazatishileñayi, anenu nawa munateli kukolesha akwenu akwakwitiya nikulemesha aeluda akuluka yitembi kuhitila mukutwalekahu kuzatisha nsañu yamuBayibolu yayilejeluwu. (Tañenu 1 Akorinda 4:17.) Chakadi nikujina, chimweluka yuma munateli kudikwasha nawakwenu hakuhimpa yuma yinateli kukwasha chipompelu kwendela hamu nakuloñesha kwaYehova. Neyi chochamukwashiluwu Elisha, mukuhita kwampinji Yehova nateli kuyikwasha enu atudizi ashinshika kukoña yuma yamaneni kubadika antañishi jenu.—Yow. 14:12.

18. Indi kudizisha amana kwetu muyipompelu kwalemenadi makonu?

¹⁸ Tunakuhweleli netu njila jinashimunuwu muchinu chibaaba nimuchibaaba chinafumuhu, jikukwasha aeluda kwikala nampinji yakudizisha amakwawu. Amana kwetu amakwawu niwena etejaña yuma yinakuyidizishawu nikuyizatisha chiwahi hakuhemba nyikoku yaYehova. Neyi mwila mwenimu mukukwasha yipompelu yamukaayi kejima nikutukwasha hamuntu hamuntu kulonda twikali ashinshika hampinji yikamwekana yuma yayiwahi kumbidi.
