Mwene yalumbununa ngwenyi: “Kwiwuluka kulihana chami chili chuma chilemu chinji mumu chakungukwasa kushishika.” Yena unanyingika ngwe chino chili chamwenemwene. Kwiwuluka chilakenyo chize walingile kuli Yehova, cha kulinga upale wenyi, muchihasa kukukwasa kunyongonona. (Tanga Chilumbununyi 5:4.) Chochene, kupukuna ha chize twalihanyine kuli Yehova chakusoloka ku yitanga yetu ni ku yuma yeswe yize twakulinga ku mwono wetu, ni ha kusakula yiheho. Postolo Paulu kasolwele ulemu wa chikuma chino muze asonekenene kuli akwa-Kristu a ku mashimbu jenyi ngwenyi: ‘Kashika chipwe munulia, hanji mununwa, hanji  cheswacho munulinga, lingenu yuma yeswe ha uhenya wa Zambi.’—1 A-Korindu 10:31.

Iye kaakolwezele hakwamba ngwenyi: “Nutumbikile mijimba yenu mulambu wa mwono, usandu, wa kupemena chikolo kuli Zambi. Chenacho we uvumbiko wenu wakulita ni kunyonga cha mana.” (A-Roma 12:1) Mujimba wacho unalumbunuka manyonga, mbunge ni tachi ja ku mujimba. Yeswayi twatamba kuyizachisa hanga tuwayile Zambi. (Marku 12:30) Paulu katesele milimo yize twakulingila Yehova ni mbunge yeswe ngwe yitapo. Liji lino lili umwe utowezo upema. Kulita ni Shimbi ja Mose, nyi te chitapo muchipwa ni umwe kapalia, Zambi te kechi kuchitayiza. (Ulevi 22:18-20) Chizechene nawa, nyi chitapo cha ufulielo wetu chapwa ni umwe kapalia, Zambi kechi kuchitayiza. Kuchi chino muchihasa kulingiwa?

6, 7. Kuchi mukwa-Kristu mahasa kupihisa mujimba wenyi, nawa kuchi usendo wenyi ni Yehova muupwa?

⁶ Paulu kalwezele akwa-Kristu mu Roma ngwenyi, “kanda nutayiza shili kuyula mu mijimba yenu.” Yamba nawa ngwenyi, ‘nushiha tachi ja yilinga ya mujimba.’ (A-Roma 6:12-14; 8:13) Ku uputukilo wa mukanda wenyi iye kahanyine yilweza ya yimwe “yilinga ya mujimba.” Hakutwala kuli atu akwa-shili, aye yamba ngwenyi: “Makanwa jo hanazala ni kushingana ni maliji asasu. Molu jo kakutambuka ha kumwanga manyinga. Woma wa Zambi wakuhi kumeso jo, niumwe.” (A-Roma 3:13-18) Mukwa-Kristu makisa “mujimba” wenyi hanji yihanda ya mujimba  wenyi ha kulinga yitanga yino yipi. Ha chino, nyi mukwa-Kristu musono watala yizulie ya sonyi hanji kutala yiheho ya kulipupula, iye kanahana ‘meso jenyi ku shili’ ni kupihisa mujimba wenyi weswe. Mulimo weswawo, mutu wacho malingila Zambi, kuuchi kupwa nawa usandu mumu Zambi kechi kuutayiza. (Shimbi Yamuchiali 15:21; 1 Petulu 1:14-16; 2 Petulu 3:11) Mutu mahasa kupihisa ufulielo wenyi ha kusakula yiheho yacho!

⁷ Tunyingikenu ngwetu, kusakula yiheho kuli mukwa-Kristu chili chikuma chilemu chinji. Kashika tunazange kusakula yiheho yize muyitukwasa kulingila kanawa Zambi chakuhona kulikisa. Haliapwila tutalenu yiheho yize yili yipema ni yize hi yipema ko.

Chakutalilaho, yitanga ya luchisa, ya andemoniu, ni yuma yikwo ya sonyi yakusoloka ha Intenet, ha yinema, ha TV, ni ha miaso. Akwa-Kristu katamba kwehuka yitanga yino mumu yakusolola yuma yize kuyishi kulita ni shimbi ja Zambi. (Yilinga 15:28, 29; 1 A-Korindu 6:9, 10; Usolwelo 21:8) Nyi wehuka yiheho yino yipi, muusolola kuli Yehova ngwe, yena ‘wakwivwa lwaji ha ungulungulu’ ni hamu lieswe ‘wakuchina yipi.’ Ha chino, muhasa kupwa “ni ufulielo uze  kuushi ulembekese.”—A-Roma 12:9; Samu 34:14; 1 Timoteu 1:5.

Shina ‘twakuvwila lwaji ungulungulu’ nyi twazanga kutala yuma yize Yehova keshi kuzanga? Nyi twapwa ni kulinga mashimbu eswe yitanga ya luchisa, manyonga jetu hakutwala ku chipema ni chipi mapihia.

Ha kusakula yiheho yacho, mukwa-Kristu mweswe katamba kukwata mwene  chiyulo chenyi ha yiheho yize mamona ngwenyi yili yipema. (Tanga A-Ngalashia 6:5.)

Kuli akwa-Kristu, ufulielo uli chuma chilemu ku mwono wo. (Tanga Mateu 6:33.) Yika mutuhasa kulinga hanga tusolole ngwetu, yikuma ya Wanangana yili yitangu ku mwono wetu? Postolo Paulu kambile ngwenyi: “Talenu kanawa ku kwenda chenu. Kanda nwenda ngwe waze keshi mana, alioze endenu ni mana. Kuulenu we mwaka.” (A-Efwesu 5:15, 16) Chochene, kutesa mashimbu waze mupalikisa ha yiheho muchikukwasa kupwa ni “shindakenyo ha yuma yahiana kupema” yize muyikukwasa kukolesa ufulielo we.—A-Fwilipu 1:10.

Chakutalilaho, Mwanangana Solomone kasonekenene yuma yinji yize Yehova akuvwila kole, ngwe “kanwa lia mahuza; moko akushiha mutu chitela chakuhi; mbunge ya kutaka manyonga a uhenge; molu akutambukila mu yuma yipi.” (Yishima 6:16-19) Kuchi nyonga lia Yehova liakukwata ha manyonga je? Mukwa-Samu katowezele ngwenyi, “yenu eswe nwakuzanga Yehova vwilenu lwaji yuma yipi.” (Samu 97:10) Yiheho ye yize wakusakula ndo yisolole ngwo yena pundu wakuvwila lwaji yize Yehova akuvwila lwaji. (A-Ngalashia 5:19-21) Watamba kunyingika ngwe yuma yize wakulinga kutenga chipwe ha mbunga yakusolola chize yena wapwa. (Masamu 11:4; 16:8) Kashika, nyi  wanyonga kanawa ha mwono we, ha manyonga ja Yehova hakutwala ku chikuma chino, mashimbu eswe mupwa ni kusakula yiheho kulita ni shimbi ja Mbimbiliya. Nyi wapwa ni kulinga chocho, chino muchipwa mwono we.​—2 A-Korindu 3:18.

Alioze ni chiheho chacho, chakunyongesa yuma ya luchisa, nyingika ngwe hi chipema ko. (Mateu 12:33; Marku 7:20-23) Mumu liaka?

(A-Efwesu 5:5; 1 Timoteu 1:5, 19) Amu yiheho yino, yili ni yuma yaluchisa, twatamba kuyehuka. * (A-Roma 12:2) Pwako ni nyonga lia mukwa-kwimba masamu yoze walembele kuli Yehova ngwenyi: “Tewulula kama meso jami, kanda atala yuma yamokomoko.”​—Samu 119:37.

Yena wakulemesa utowezo au: “Kanda nukapwa chitalingiso.” (1 A-Korindu 8:12; 10:32) Akwa-Kristu amwenemwene musono kakulemesa utowezo uno, uze Paulu ahanyine wa kwehuka yiheho yize yakusoloka ngwe ‘yalita’ alioze “kuyishi kukolesa” ufulielo.​—A-Roma 14:1; 15:1.
