Kujingunin Chom Kanang mu Rukan

Kwisundiel kwa mivu ya 1960, mwanamakwend a nfumwam, Jesse, wapamina niyend mu relijon wa Akadivar Abatist, amukasa mu rukan mulong walika kwandam mu usalay. Padingany mu rukan, watanijana ni Atuman a Yehova, ading niyau amena anch kwandam mwi njit kukwatijadinap ni mbil ja Bibil. (Isay 2:4; Mateu 26:52) Jesse wasangara nakash kwisambin piur pa Bibil nau Atuman a Yehova ni wamana anch akwet mikadil yiwamp. Kupwa kwa kwilej Bibil nakash, amubatisha ni wikala Kaman wa Yehova. Chom chinech chatusangareshap.

Kukimb Relijon Wakin

Kupwa kwa yom yiney, twasambisha kukimb relijon wakin. Twading tukimbin relijon mudia antu asadidina yom yiyifundishinau antu akwau. Cha kusambish, twateka kuns marelijon mawonsu makata kwiyandjik mwi njit. Pakwez twading tukat kusanger marelijon mading mayikasikeshina antu kwikal ni mwom upipela ni adjita masun ma pansh, mulong twamanang anch kusal mwamu kumekeshin anch kadiap ku mutambu wa mangand. Kusambish mu muvu wa 1983 kushik mu muvu wa 1985, twendangana mu jingand kushalijan mulong wa kushinshikin relijon umwing kupwa kwa mukwau—Amenonit, relijon wa a quakers ni yisak yikwau ya chirelijon yading yiyikasikeshina antu kwikal ni mwom upipela.

Pa chisu chinacha, Atuman a Yehova eza kutwendin ku yir yetu yadinga piswimp ni Camden, mu Indiana. Twayiteshang ni twayilejang kusadin ching Bible du roi Jacques. Nading nilimishin mupak wa Atuman piur pa njit. Pakwez chading chinkasikedin kuyitesh mulong kadingap kwau kamena anch chid usey kwikal aurikina ni mangand kusutil mutapu wau wa kudjal, chawiy natonga anch kadingap kwau kakweta relijon wakin. Namana anch chibud chawiy chayibaching antu kudjal mu mutapu ushalijadina ni yetwetu. Natonga anch yom ya ku mujimbu yawiy yayibachikang antu kwitutul.

James wasambisha kuya ku Chot cha Want cha Atuman a Yehova, ni wayangang ni anetu amwing. Najimana nakash. Nfumwam wankasikesha kuya nend pamwing, pakwez nalika. Kupwa dichuku dimwing wanleja anch: “Ap anch witiyijinap mafundish mau mawonsu, yang kwey ni wimenap amwiney mutapu ukwatijadinau umwing ni mukwau.” Mulong chom chinech chamupukuna ku muchim nakash.

Kupwa chad, nakwata mupak wa kuya nau, nading nibabel nakash. Nandama mu Chot cha Want oku nadjalang kal nkandj wa usey ukemp kwau ni nading nidjit chiful. Anetu amwing ading kwau ku mend kwawash, ni masun mau mading kwau ma pansh. Pakwez Atuman atwaaka ni atusadina yom nich rukat. Natonga anch: ‘Tushalijadin, pakwez atwitiyin mud mutapu tudia.’

Rukat rau rampukuna kamu, pakwez nakwata mupak wa kutadin bil palemp. Nimanangap piur ap kuwang miminy yau. Kupwa kwa yikumangan, nayipulang yipul yivud nakash, yipul mud piur pa yom yakad kwisangaresh yisadinau ap kurumburik kwa mifund kanang. Ap anch nipulang pakad nkeu, muntu mwawonsu nipulang wambanginang kamu chakin. Nashimwoka kand, mulong anch nipul chipul chawiy chimwing kud antu avud, yakul yau yading yitadijadin. Yisu yimwing anfundinang yakul pa dipaper, ni chinech chankwashang nakash, mulong natwishang chad kwilej amwinam chisu chindj.

Mu chishipu cha muvu wa 1985, dijuku dietu diaya ku chitentam cha Atuman a Yehova chasadikina mu Memphis, mu Tennessee—pakwez twaya kwetu mulong wa kutal. James wading ni mawedj, ni twading twadjalang kal kamu mu mutapu wa pansh nakash. Pa chisu cha kwiswedish, chisu chawonsu antu ezang mulong wa kutwinkish moy. Atumekeshina rukat, atubangina ni atwitiya. Twasangera kand uumwing wau, mulong chikalap nchik kwi ndond twayangang ku yikumangan, mafundish mading kwau ma mutapu umwing.

James wasangera nakash mutapu wamubanginau kud Atuman, chawiy witiya dilejan dia Bibil. Washinshikina yom yawonsu, mulong wa kwikal nich kashinsh ka yom yading yilejinay. (Midimu 17:11; 1 Tesalonik 5:21) Mu kusut kwa chisu, James wamana kamu anch watan kal uyakin. Pakwez am narumbangana mu manangu. Nading nikatin kusal yom yitentamina, pakwez nadingap nikatina kulik mwom wam wa pansh ni kwikal muntu wa “mangand.” Kapamp ka kusambish nitiya kulondul dilejan dia Bibil, nading ni Bible du roi Jacques pa dinungun dimwing ni Traduction du monde nouveau pa dinungun dikwau. Natalang maverse mawonsu mu ma Bibil minam maad mulong wa kwikal nich kashinsh anch kadimbinap.

Mutapu Nikala Nich Kashinsh

Pitwading twilejina nau Atuman a Yehova, twileja anch Tatukwetu wa mwiur ud Nzamb umwing, kadiap anzamb asatu mwi nzamb umwing, ni anch etu ayinetu win tukwetingap mupim wakad kufang, pakwez tud mipim yin. (Disambishil 2:7; Kuvurik Yijil 6:4; Ezekiel 18:4; 1 Korint 8:5, 6) Twileja kand anch karung ka misiny kadingapaku, ni anch ang muntu wafa, ukat kuya mwi nzay. (Job 14:13; Kuseng 16:10; Mulej 9:5, 10; Midimu 2:31) Kwilej uyakin piur pa karung ka misiny chading chom cha pakampwil nakash, mulong mu egliz wa Akadivar Abatist, antu ading kutadikijanang nakash piur pa mafundish minam.

Pakwez, nadanamena kwiyipul anch Atuman a Yehova akwet kamu relijon wakin, mulong mu maangu mam, ading kwau ku mutambu wa mangand. Kadingap kwau ni mwom upipela, unadinga nimena anch ud wa usey nakash. Pakwez pa chisu chawiy chimwing, najingunina anch ading akat kuziyin kwi mbil ya Yesu ya kulejan rusangu ruwamp ra Want kud antu awonsu. Chawiy narumbangana kamu nakash mu manangu!​—Mateu 24:14; 28:19, 20.

Pa chisu chinacha chikash, rukat ra Atuman rankwasha kudandamen kukimbijol. Chikumangen chawonsu cha kabuj chabangina nakash dijuku dietu. Akadivar nau anambaz kushalijan a mu chikumangen ezang kututal. Amwing ezang kuland kwol kwetu mayel ni may mulong wa kwau wa kumanijan niyetwetu. Chawiy twasambisha kuyiman anch ad kamu antu awamp. Mulong Kaman umwing wilejang netu Bibil, chinech chayikangeshap Atuman akwau kwez kutwendin. Chisu chawonsu anch antu a mu chikumangen endin piswimp ni kwol kwetu, ezang kututal ku chikumbu. Twading nich kuswir nakash kwa kusutish nau chisu pamwing mulong tushikena kuyijik nawamp, ni twashikena kusanger kubangin ni rukat rau.

Kubangin kwinoku kwimenap kwau ching kud Atuman adinga mu yikumangen ya piswimp. Pinading nidandamedina kwiyipul yipul piur pa mutapu uwamp wa kudjal ni kwileng, Kay Briggs, Kaman wa mu chikumangen cha piswimp, wadinga ukatina niyend kudjal masun ma pansh ni wakad kwileng, weza kututal. Niyova nawamp nakash kwikal nend pamwing ni natwisha kwambamb nend nawamp. Kupwa dichuku dimwing, Lewis Flora, wadinga niyend mu egliz mukatau kuyifundish antu kwikal ni mwom upipela, weza kututal. Wamana kamu anch nading nirumbangen mu manangu, ni mulong wa kwinkasikesh, wantumina mukand ukweta ma paj dikum. Uwamp wanmekeshinay wasala anch nidila nakash. Natanga mukand wend tupamp tuvud nakash.

Nakwata mupak wa kumwipul kalam umwing mwin kwendangan, Mukadivar O’Dell, chakwel anrumburila mukand wa Isay 3:18-23 ni wa 1 Pita 3:3, 4. Namwipula anch: “Ov, maverse minam mamekeshinap anch chitin kudjal masun ma pansh mulong wa kumusangaresh Nzamb? Wangipula niyend anch: “Ov, chiyipin kudjal chiful? Ov, chiyipin kukasish nsuk?” Pakwez mu egliz wa Akadivar Abatist, twayikasang ayangadim nsuk, pakwez amband adjalang yiful. Namana kamu anch yom yading yiptwitamijadin, nashimwoka nakash mulong wa mwikadil uwamp ni kushimpish muchim kwa kalam mwin kwendangan winou.

Twading tukimbin antu asadinang yom yading yiyifundishinau antu akwau, ni twayitana. Yesu walonda anch: “Anch niyen wakatijanany mwamu, chawiy antu awonsu akez kwijik anch, en udiany in kwilejam.” (Yohan 13:35) Twikala kamu nich kashinsh anch Atuman a Yehova awiy antu amekeshina rukat rakin. Ap mwamu, chom chinech chayikasikena nakash anetu aad a kusambish, Nathan ni Rebecca, mulong itiyija mafundish ma Akadivar Abatist ni ayibatisha mu egliz winou. Kwisundiel chad, uyakin wa Bibil twading tuyifundishina wapukuna michim yau ni rukat rayimekeshinau kud Atuman a Yehova.

Chilakej, kudiosh pakur Rebecca wading ukatin kwikal mu urund nend Nzamb.
