(Nsome 1 Akorintu 3:19, 20. f) “Ucuwelaca wo ntuninyani” ikwaha cinci unaawiiriha atthu uhimwiiwelela Nluku. Makristau akiina o Pérgamo ni o Tiatira yahosoverihiya upanka citthu coohiloka naale yaakhala iriyaryaaya yaarupihana woohiloka ni yaaswalela attontto. Yesu ahovaha ikano nno nlokonno kontha yaanaahiyerera ukhalaka urupihaniya woohiloka. (Apoka. 2:14, 20) Ilelo, unaavira utepaka ukhanyererihiya wihu wiira naamini ukhalana mawehero ontuninyani.

(Mat. 23:4) Yehova naanivaha ikano avarelaka nteko nuulumo nawe ni mphwinkwaawe.

¹³ Citthu cooniitthaaliha.

(Luka 21:34, 35) Uhiya commo, khula nihuku ninawiiwelela ihapari caanasiyaasa. Nihaana wiikhikicera wiira cihiniitthaalihe nnyo ihaparinnyo. Wooriipiha nrima, hi pooti upacera ukhalana ipartiitu nhina nnyo myahannyo mmuupuweleloni wihu ni wanrimani wihu.

Waamini winyu uholipa ni uhookurumicani uttharuwa. Ufenta winyu Yehova uhookurumicani uhiya upanka citthu cootakhala ni upacera upanka citthu cinoncivela Nluku. Nyuuva mwaheecoona ukhala ni nnema ukati waacuwelenleenyu wiira Yehova hoolevelelani. (Isaa. 32:1, 2) Mwahopacera woona mikutthaano ni uwuulumana atthu akiina citthu comaana mwiitthucileenyu. Khampa nkristau owiivaherera ni oopattisiya, vano nneetta munttalani wookumi, nnawiikurumica ni nnaapanka yotheene inkhitiriinyu wiira nhihiye weetta uyo nttalooyo.—Mat. 7:13, 14.

15. Kontha isiyani ikhanlyaaya itthu yofayita usoma ni wuupuwela itthu insomeehu Nnuulumoni na Nluku?

Nasomaka ni noopuwelaka Nuulumo na Nluku, ninaatepa ukupaleela wiira citthu Yehova nonilepelaawe cikhanle comaana muukuni wihu.

Wootakihera, nhina iwooni Ezekiyeli yaakhalannyaawe uyo ahoweheeha saana nlayikha naalikaca itempulu. Iyo iwooniiyo yahonlipiha Ezekiyeli ni ihoniitthuciha citthu cinci nhina mananna hiiva ninlamuliyeehu waakihera ni weettela ikettelo ca Yehova wiira ninswalele womaana. h (Ezek. 40:1-4; 43:10-12) Hiiva ciicammo ninaaphwanyera ifayita nasomaka ni noopuwelaka sana-saana myaha cuulupale co Nnuulumoni na Nluku.

16. Manannani ulipa nrima waankhikicenryaaya Bob? (Nwehe Isaalimu 112:7.)

¹⁶ Nlipe nrima. Mwene Davidi aheera wiira khaahala uhiya unfenta Yehova. Uyo aheepaca co: “Nrimaaka uri woolipa, oo Nluku.” (Isaa. 57:7) Hiiva ciicammo pooti ukhalana nrima woolipa ninkhuluvelaka Yehova ninrimeehu wotheene.

Masi, Yehova ahomwiirela Baraki wiira amwaanane ikhotto nhooleli aanakhotto nkananeu eehaniya Siisera, aarina ikaruma cinci cokhotto.

Khawaahala waarikela makananeu waana ikhotto nipuro nowoonnya nlattu wokaaru cokhotto, waahookhalaru commo Baraki aheewelela ni ahorwaa.
