(Tañenu Yililu 9:15, 16, 20, 22.) Pawulu wadiña nampinji yakutoñojoka hayuma yakuspiritu.

Kuleja kweyi kunanleji maana akubadika awayilumbu jami; nidi nawu hefuku hefuku. Nalekeshi nyendu yami kuya munjila jatama jejima, kulonda nihembi izu deyi.” (Masamu 119:72, 98, 101) Komana ninenu mwadizaña Bayibolu mpinji yejima? Munakudiloñesha kuzata nyidimu yidi kumbidi mumudimu waNzambi kuhitila mukutaña Bayibolu ifuku niifuku nikutoñojoka hayuma yimwatañaña?

Sawulu watela wazañaleli nachuma chamweniyi, hadaha wamweni neyi kufwa kwaSetefwanu kwamuteleleli.

Hampinji yamutonesheluwu Sawulu kudi Yehova kuhitila mudi Ananiya, yililu yaSawulu yakuhela antu yahimpikili chikupu.

Chumanyi chamusañumwini iwu mukwawinyi kwikala naluwi nawa kapostolu wamuwahi, wadikeñeleleña kusha wumi windi muwubanji kulonda amakwawu adizi chalala hadi Nzambi niKristu? Pawulu walumbulwili nindi: “Nzambi, . . . wantambikili mwaya luwi lwindi, hatiyiliyi kuwaha kumwekesha Mwanindi mudami.” (Aŋalija 1:15, 16) Pawulu wamusonekeleli Timotewu nindi: “Antiyilili luwi, kulonda mudami nabadika, Yesu Kristu amwekeshi mwejima mwadiñi nakudiwunjikayi, niikali wakutalilahu antu akumukuhwelelaña, atambuli wumi wahaya nyaka.” (1 Timotewu 1:16) Yehova wamwanakeneni Pawulu, nawa chatambwililiyi luwi lwamuchidiwu niwushona chamusañumwini kumwekesha kukeña kudi amakwawu kuhitila mukuyishimwina nsañu yayiwahi.
13. Chumanyi chikutusañumuna kukeña amakwawu, nawa tukuyikeña ñahi?

Nzambi watwimwekeshelaña luwi lwindi lwabadika. Kufwana Pawulu, twatela kumwekesha kukeña kudi antu amakwawu kuhitila mukuyishimwina nikuyitañisha chalala nikukolesha akwetu akwakwitiya.—Tañenu Yililu 14:21-23.

Dichi lombenu kudi Mwanta wakumuna atemeshi akwakukalakala kukumuna kwindi.” (Matewu 9:35-38) Pawulu wazatili kwesekana nakulomba kwalombeliyi kwakukeña akwakukalakala amavulu kuhitila mukuzata chikupu mumudimu. Indochu enu? Munateli kuyilaku hambidi mumudimu wenu wakushimwina?

(Yililu 14:26–15:2) Chineli Pawulu amutondeli kulombola mudimu wakushimwina kudi aJentili abula kwalama, watela wadimweni kwikala nkuluñaña hakukalakala nawantu abulili kwikala aYudeya nawa diyi watwesheli kumanisha iku kukala.

Komana kwila tudiza kwakamena antu ejima chakadi chaambu nawa nikuyikeña, neyi chelileñayi Pawulu nehi? (Yililu 17:26; Aroma 12:10a) Anatwikoleshi ‘kuditambwila muntu namukwawu neyi chayitambwiliyi Kristu, kulonda kulemesha Nzambi.’—Aroma 15:7.
