Ntchito zatsopano zachititsa kuti papezeke njira zatsopano zogwirira ntchitozo ndipo njira zambiri ndi zamakono. Ndiyeno achikulire ena amavutika kuzolowera njira zatsopanozo.

Iye adzakukumbutsani mmene ndimachitira zinthu potumikira Khristu Yesu, monga mmenenso ineyo ndikuphunzitsira kulikonse, mumpingo uliwonse.” (1 Akor. 4:17) Mawu amenewa akusonyeza kuti Paulo ndi Timoteyo ankagwira ntchito limodzi mogwirizana.

Koma aliyense aziganiza m’njira yakuti akhale munthu woganiza bwino, malinga ndi chikhulupiriro chimene Mulungu wamupatsa.
