Mety hampirisiky an-drozy hianatsy amy iniversitè ty mpampianatsy an-drozy noho ty fianakavian-drozy tsy Vavolombeloni-Jehovah, soa hahazo asa soa noho be karama rozy.

Ino ty hanampy ty tanora tea ani-Jehovah hahay hanapa-kevitsy? Soa ie laha mamaky noho mametsivetsy ty Efesianina 5:15-17. (Vakio.) Mety hieritseritsy ho zao ty tanora lafa baka namaky ani-andininy reo: ‘Ino ty “sitraponi-Jehovah”? Fanapahan-kevitsy manao akory ro mahafalifaly azy? Ino ty fanapahan-kevitsy hanampy ahy hampiasa soa ty fotoako?’ Tiarovo fa “raty andro zao”, sady kely sisa le horavà tontolo ambany fahefàni-Satana toy. Hendry zany tsika laha mampiasa ty fiainantsika mba hanaova raha mahafalifaly ani-Jehovah.

6. Nifily hanao ino Maria, le manino ro mety soa raha nataony zay?

Mampiseho ani-zay ty raha niseho lafa Jesosy niavy tan-tranoni-Maria noho Marta any. Nifalifaly biby Marta ka nikarakara sakafo maro ho ani-Jesosy. Fe Maria nipetraky tanilani-Jesosy teo le nijanjy ty raha nampianariny. Tsy raty aloha ty raha nataoni-Marta, fe nivola Jesosy fa mbo “soa” mandilatsy ani-zay ty raha nataoni-Maria.

Nilafovily tamy Maria fotoa niarahany tamy Jesosy io, le manahaky ani-zay koa fa lafovily amintsika ty fotoa iarahantsika amy Jehovah. Akory ty hampiasantsika soa ani-fotoa io?

(Sal. 5:7) Lafa tsika mianatsy Baiboly, le mandramby “fahaiza” baka amy Ndranahary, azy farany hendry iny.

8. Ino ty azontsika ianara baka amy Jesosy laha hentea ty fomba nampiasany ty fotoany tan-diomonto any?

⁸ Mifiliana pilasy mety soa. Diniho ty ohatsini-Jesosy. Talohani-nanombohany ty fanompoany tan-tany etoy, le nijano 40 andro tan-diomonto any tse ie. (Lioka 4:1, 2) Afaky  nivavaky tamy Jehovah Babany noho nametsivetsy ty sitrapony ie lafa tamy pilasy kalma io tany. Lasa niparè hiatriky ty fitsapà hahazo azy ie vokatsini-raha zay. Akory ty hanahafanao ani-Jesosy? Laha maromaro, ohatsy, nareo an-trano ao le mety ho sarotsy aminao ty hahita pilasy kalikalma. Laha zay ie, le vasa afaky miboaky iha le mila pilasy amonto any.

Mbo tsy nitsiriky ty andro, le nandeha nila “pilasy mitoka” ie mba tsy hisy hanelingely azy amy fotoa iarahany amy Babany io.​—Mar. 1:32-35.

10-11. Laha hentea ty Matio 26:40, 41, nampirisiky ani-mpianatsiny rey hanao ino Jesosy, fe ino ty raha niseho?

¹⁰ Tamy haliky farany niainani-Jesosy tan-tany etoy, lafa ho vita ty fanompoany, le nandeha nila pilasy mitoka ndraiky ie mba hahafahany mametsivetsy noho mivavaky.

¹¹ Eritsereto ty raha niseho tamy zay. Fa haly biby rozy vo niavy tamy zaridaini-Getsemane tao, mety fa ho vaky mirahaly mihintsy aza. Bakeo nivola tamy apostoly rey Jesosy mba tsy hiroro fa ie handeha hivavaky. (Mat. 26:37-39) Fe lafa nandeha nivavaky ie, le niazon-droro rozy. Lafa nahita an-drozy niroro Jesosy, le nampirisiky an-drozy ndraiky ie hoe: “Miambena noho mivavaha avao.” (Vakio Matio 26:40, 41.) Haini-Jesosy hoe niasa loha marè rozy sady nivozaky. Niferinesani-Jesosy rozy satria hainy fa ‘malemy ty nofotsy.’ Mbo nandeha nivavaky indroe Jesosy tafarani-zay, fe saky nimpoly baka any ie le mbo nahita ani-mpianatsiny rey niroro fa tsy nivavaky.​—Mat. 26:42-45.

Mivola koa manam-pahaiza raiky zay hoe: “Tsy hifantoky amy raha ataonao iny iha fa hiriorio ty sainao.” Ampitiarovy avao tsika matetiky lafa amy fivoriambe rey mba hamono na tsy hanisy feo ty telefonintsika na fitaova elektroniky hafa, amy zay mba tsy hanelingely olo. Afaky manao manahaky ani-zay koa va tsika lafa tsika raiky avao rey, amy zay mba tsy hanelingely antsika noho ty fotoa anaovantsika raha ho ani-Jehovah ty telefonintsika na fitaova hafa?

Saky mamaly ani-raha nangatahinao reo Jehovah le hihamatanjaky ty finoanao. (1 Jaona 5:15) Ino koa ty raha afaky manampy anao hana finoa matanjaky? Ty fianara am-bata. Tiarovo fa ‘baka amy raha rè ty finoa.’ (Rom. 10:17) Fe laha teanao hatanjaky ty finoanao, le tsy ampy avao ty mianatsy. Mbo misy raha hafa koa mila ataonao. Ino zay?

(Andininy 2-8) Ino ty nataony? Hoy ty asany tamy Jehovah: “Hovetsevetseko ty asanao iaby, le hoeritseretiko soa ty raha nataonao.” (Andininy 12) Azo antoky fa haini-mpanoratsy salamo  io ty raha soa maro nataoni-Jehovah ho ani-vahoakiny taloha tany. Fe mbo nieritseritsy avao ie hoe: “Halino-Ndranahary va ty niferinay anay, sa neloky ie le tsy namindra fo sasy?” (Andininy 9) Nivetsevetseni-mpanao salamo io ty raha nataoni-Jehovah. Nieritseretiny koa hoe namindra fo noho nampiseho hasoam-panahy Jehovah taloha. (Andininy 11) Ino ty vokany? Lasa natoky ie hoe tsy hahafoy ty vahoakiny mihintsy Jehovah. (Andininy 15) Manahaky ani-zay koa fa hatanjaky ty finoanao laha vetsevetsenao hoe ino ty raha fa nataoni-Jehovah ho ani-vahoakiny, le ino ty raha fa nataony ho anao.
