Ngakhale kuti misonkhano yathu si yapadera monga mmene unalili msonkhano umenewo, buku lathu lalikulu lophunzirira, Baibulo, limafotokozedwa pa misonkhanoyi.

⁹ Iye akupitiriza kuti: ‘Ukafunafuna [luntha] ngati siliva, ndi kulipwaira ngati chuma chobisika; . . . ’ (Miyambo 2:4) Zimenezi zikutichititsa kuganiza za ntchito za migodi za amuna amene kwa zaka zambiri akhala akufunafuna siliva ndi golidi, miyala imene amati ndi yamtengo wapatali. Anthu aphana chifukwa cha golidi. Ena akhala akufunafuna golidi moyo wawo wonse. Koma kodi golidi ali ndi mtengo wotani?

Koma iwo alephera “kum’dziŵadi Mulungu.” Chifukwa chiyani?

Cholinga chathu n’chakuti tizichita zinthu monga Akristu, kukhala okonzeka nthaŵi zonse kuthandiza ena, kuwapatsa mpumulo monga anachitira Kristu. (Mateyu 11:28-30) Mtumwi Paulo anachenjeza kuti: “Chidziŵitso chitukumula, koma chikondi chimangirira.” (1 Akorinto 8:1) Motero, tiyenera kukhala ndi mtima wodzichepetsa wonga umene Mose anasonyeza pamene anauza Yehova kuti: “Mundidziŵitsetu njira zanu, kuti ndikudziŵeni, ndi kuti ndipeze ufulu pamaso panu.” (Eksodo 33:13) Inde, tizifuna kupeza chidziŵitso n’cholinga chosangalatsa Mulungu, osati n’cholinga chogometsa anthu.

M’mbali zonsezi, zimene achite pomaliza pake siziyenera kukhala zokhotakhota.

Chida chimene tili nacho ndicho “chidziŵitso cha Mulungu” chimene chingathe “kugonjetsa ganizo lonse ku kumvera kwa Kristu.” Chimenechi ndi chifukwa chachikulu choikira maganizo pa phunziro la Baibulo la tsiku ndi tsiku, popeza tikufuna kuti tipeŵe kuganizira zinthu zadyera, zopanda pake.​—2 Akorinto 10:5.
