¹⁰ Apolo wadinga mwin Kristu mwin Yuda wadinga “wija kulond nawamp, wading wij kand Mukand wa Nzamb nakash” ni “warumburilanga mazu ma Nzamb nich mushiku.” Buku wa Midimu wisambidin piur pend anch: “Walejananga kand yom yakin ya Yesu.

Pateshau malejan mend mu Efes, ambay amwing aad in Kristu, Prisil ni Akila amurumburila mutapu ‘wakin nakash njil ya Nzamb.’ (Mid. 18:24-26) Ov, chinech chamuyukisha mutapu ik Apolo?

¹¹ Kupwa kwa kulejan ku Efes, Apolo waya ku Akey. “Chashikay kwinikwa, ndiy wayikwasha nakash antu ikala in kwitiyij mulong wa ranaken ra Nzamb.

Chawiy wayishinshika nich Mukand wa Nzamb anch, Yesu ndiy kamu Kristu Uzizidilau Many.” (Mid. 18:27, 28) Pa chisu chinicha, Apolo watwisha kurumburil katat piur pa kurumburik kwa  dibatish dia in Kristu. Nich kuwejinaku kwa nteshil, “wayikwasha nakash” antu asu chakwel aya kurutu mu difukwil diakin. Ov, chom ik tukutwisha kwilejin mu rusangu riner? Mudi Apolo, tukat kwikasikesh kutesh yitutangina mu Bibil. Pakwez, anch mbay umwing mukaritiy watulej mutapu tukutwisha kulejan nawamp, tukwitiyij ukwash winou nich kwitudish ni kujikitish. Anch twasal mwamu, tukez kuwapish mutapu wetu wa kusal mudimu utumbila.

12, 13. Rumburil mutapu ukutwisha kusadil Bibil nawamp kumukwash mwin kwilej Bibil chakwel aya kurutu muspiritu.

¹² Mudi Prisil ni Akila nenday Apolo, tukutwish kwikal chiyukish kudi antu akwau. Ov, mutapu ik ukata kwiyov, anch dikasikesh diey diamukwash muntu usangaredina uyakin chakwel apandakana chikangesh cha kuya kwend kurutu mu spiritu?

Chiyul chapanay Elija kudi antu inay chikutwish kumukwash mwin kwilej Bibil wakad kutwish kukwat mupak chakwel asala usu wa kuya kurutu muspiritu. (Tang 1 Ant 18:21.) Shinshikin pa mwikadil ukwau: Anch muntu usangaredina wov wom wa arund ap wa dijuku diend, ukutwish kukasikesh mupak wend wa kumwifukwil Yehova kusutil ku kutongijokin pa Isay 51:12,13.—Tang.

14. Ov, chom ik chikeza kukukwash kuvurik maverse ma Bibil piukwikala nam kuswir chakwel kuyikwash antu akwau?

¹⁴ Chimeken patok anch, mu Bibil mudi mazu mavud makutwisha kukasikesh, makin, ni maletina usu kudi antu amatangina. Pakwez ukutwish kwipul anch, ‘Ov, mutapu ik nikutwisha kutan maverse swaa anch nimakimbin?’ Tang Bibil ni tongijokin pa yitongijok ya Nzamb dichuku ni dichuku. Mwamu, ukez kwikal nich mazu mavud ma Nzamb makutwishay spiritu wa Yehova kukukwash chakwel kumavurik piukwikala nam kuswir.—Mar. 13:11; tang Yohan 14:26. *

15. Ov, chom ik chikeza kukukwash chakwel utesha nawamp Dizu dia Nzamb?

¹⁵ Mudi Mwant Salomon, mwita Yehova manangu chakwel uwanyisha nawamp yisend ya uteokras. (2 Jsng. 1:7-10) Mudi mwasalau aprofet a pasak, sal usu wa ‘kusurab ni kukimbijol’ mu Dizu dia Nzamb ronganyin rakin ra Yehova ni rusot rend. (1 Pita 1:10-12) Kambuy Paul wamukasikesha Timote chakwel idisha amwinend “nich mazu ma ritiy ni malejan makin.” (1 Tim. 4:6) Mu kusal mwamu, ukutwish kuyikwash nawamp antu akwau muspiritu. Chawiy lel, ukez kutung ritiy rey amwiney.

16. (a) Ov, “kwilej pichuku pichuku Mukand wa Nzamb” kwikala kwa usey mutapu ik kudi in Berey? (b) Mulong wak kutang Bibil pichuku pichuku kudi kwa usey nakash nlel unou?

¹⁶ In Yuda adinga mu Makedonia musumb wa ku Berey, adinga ni chaku cha “kwilej pichuku pichuku Mukand wa Nzamb.” Palejanay Paul rusangu ruwamp kudi in Yuda inay, awiy asambisha kwilikej mazu mend ni ronganyin rau piur pa Mukand wa Nzamb. Ov, nich chibudikin? Antu avud itiyija anch ndiy wading ulejen uyakin, ni antu avud “itiyija.” (Mid. 17:10-12)  Chinech chimekeshin anch kutang Bibil dichuku ni dichuku kukat kukasikesh ritiy mudiay Yehova. Ritiy riner, rawiy “kushinshik kwa yom ya ruchingej,” ridi ra usey chakwel tupanda mu mangand masu ma Nzamb.—Heb. 11:1.

17, 18. (a) Ov, mutapu ik ukata ritiy rikash ni rukat kuchidij muchim wa chifanikesh wa mwin Kristu? (b) Ov, mutapu ik ukata ruchingej kutuchidij ku ubaj?

¹⁷ Chawiy chafunday Paul anch: “Etu tukat kwendil mu muten, chifanyidin etu kubabal. Chifanyidin kand etu kudjal ritiy ni rukat mudi rukibu rikasinau pa ntul. Tudjala kand ruchingej ra dipandish dietu mudi chiful cha utad.” (1 Tes. 5:8) Isalay ukweting kuswir kwa kuchidij rudung rend pantaliken ni akankuny. Chilik chimwing, rudung ra mwin Kristu ra chifanikesh ritin kurichidij pantaliken nich usu wa chitil. Chom ik chikata kushiken pakatay kashalapol wa Yehova kwikal nich ritiy rikash mu kushilamu kwa Nzamb ni kumukat ni kuyikat ambay nend antu? Kashalapol winou ufanyidin kudjal rikibu ra muspiritu ra piur nakash. Chimeken anch kakutwishap kusal yom mulong wa kushadish dilau dia Nzamb.

¹⁸ Paul wisambina kand piur pa chiful cha utad mudi, “ruchingej ra dipandish.” Pakad kuchidij mutu wend, isalay wa pa chirung cha Bibil wela kushadish swaa mwom wend. Pakwez nich chiful cha utad, ndiy ukez kupand ap anch amubul chom chikash. Tukat kukasikesh ruchingej mu yisal ya dipandish ya Yehova kusutil ku kwilej Dizu diend. Ruchingej rikash rikat kutukwash chakwel turisha ni in kubwambwil ni “mazu mau ma usup.” (2 Tim. 2:16-19) Ruchingej retu rikez kutukasikesh kand chakwel tulika kwitiy anch asambish kutubachik ku kusal yom yilikishinau kudi Yehova.

19, 20. Ov, mulong wak tukwatin nich usey nakash Dizu dia Nzamb, ni mutapu ik tumekeshina kusanger kwetu? (Tal mushet “Yehova Winginkin Yinikweta Nich Kuswir.”)

¹⁹ Pitushejidina nakash mu machuku ma nsudiel, kuswir kwetu kwa kuchingejin mu Dizu dia Nzamb kukat kupandakan. Chiyul chidiokila mu dizu dined chitukwashin kwipuk kusal uyimp ni kurish nich yibachikin ya kusal chitil. Nich dikasikesh ni usu wa dizu dined, tukez kupandakan yoziu ya Satan ni ya mangand mend. Ni umutakel uletinay Yehova mu Dizu diend, tukez kudandamena mwi njil ya mwom.
