KUBAAPU kukila mafuku apeela kunyima kwa Pentekote a mu kipwa kya 33 kunyima kwa Yesu Kidishitu (B.B.), kakongye ka beena Kidishitu ka mu Yeelusaleme kabaapu penda mbingo ipeela kasha kekala kwanka. Kushii mpaka, Satana bamono shi ino ndjo nsaa ilombane bwa kulwa ngoshi na kakongye ka beena Kidishitu. E na lukalo lwa kubutula kakongye kumpala kwashi kanyingye. Mususa umune, Satana balumbula myanda mu mushindo ulombeene bakata ba bipwilo kwimika mudimo wa bulungudi bwa Bufumu. Anka, batumibwa abatungunuka na kulungula mukandu wibuwa na, bantu bebungi balume na bakashi bakwete “kukumina Mwanana.”​—Bik. 4:18, 33; 5:14, Kilombeno kipya.

² Na nsungu yooso, beshikwanyi abatomboka dimo—bwa uno musango abeele batumibwa mu lukano. Anka, bufuku, mwikeyilu a Yehowa bashitula biibi bya lukano na, kunamashika batumibwa abaluka mu mudimo wa bulungudi! Abebakwata dingi abende nabo kwi ba nfumu, abebafundu shi, bakwete kutupilwa mwiya aupele kukita mudimo wa bulungudi. Batumibwa abalula na mashimba anyingye shi: ‘Bii buuwa tukookyele Efile Mukulu pee kukookyela bantu.’ Ba nfumu abafiitshi munda ngofu mu mushindo wabakumiina mpa na “kwibaipaisha.” Anka mu yaaya nsaa ibubi, Gamaliyele mulambukishi a Miiya e na kineemo ku meso kwa bantu baadi mwibakwile, adimusha ba nfumu shi: “Dimukaayi na byanukyebe kukita p’abitala bano bantu . . . Ebalekyeeyi bende.” Mwanda wa kukanya, ba nfumu abakookyela elango dyaaye abapoosola batumibwa. Bano bantu baasha kululama abakitshine kinyi? Kushii kutshina, “tambalekye kulambukisha na kulungula mukandu wibuwa mwishina dya Yesu Mesiya.”​—Bik. 5:17-21, 27-42, Kilombeno kipya; Nki. 21:1, 30.
