(VaHebheru 4:12) Somuenzaniso, mumwe mukadzi anonzi Camille akapinzwa basa rokutarisira vakwegura. Mumwe wevaaitarisira aiva Martha, mumwe weZvapupu zvaJehovha. Sezvo Martha akakanganiswa zvikuru nechirwere chepfungwa, aida kugara achitarisirwa. Aifanira kuyeuchidzwa kuti adye—kunyange kumedza zvokudya zvake. Zvisinei, pane chimwe chinhu chakanga chanamira mupfungwa dzaMartha, sezvatichaona.
9 Rimwe zuva, Martha akaona Camille achichema pamusana pokushungurudzika nezvimwewo zvaimunetsa. Martha akambundira Camille ndokumukumbira kuuya kuzodzidza naye Bhaibheri. Asi munhu akaita saMartha aigona kudzidzisa Bhaibheri here? Hungu, aigona! Kunyange zvazvo akanga asingachayeuki zvakawanda, Martha akanga asina kukanganwa Mwari wake akanaka; uye akanga asina kukanganwa chokwadi chinokosha chaakanga adzidza kubva muBhaibheri. Pakudzidza kwacho, Martha aiudza Camille kuti averenge ndima imwe neimwe, atarire Magwaro aivamo, averenge mubvunzo waiva pazasi pepeji, oupindura. Izvi zvakaenderera mberi kwenguva yakati, uye pasinei nokurwara kwaMartha, Camille akafambira mberi muzivo yeBhaibheri.

Pamukana wokutanga, akapinda muImba yoUmambo, akapfeka dhirezi neshangu dzaakanga apiwa naMartha, uye akakumbira kudzidza Bhaibheri. Camille akafambira mberi zvakanaka uye akabhabhatidzwa.Tinokurudzirwa Kuratidza Tsika Dzinodiwa naJehovha
11. Kuwedzera pakushingaira mubasa rokuparidza, tingaratidza sei kuti takakurudzirwa nemashoko akanaka?
11 Nhasi, kune Zvapupu zvaJehovha zvinopfuura mamiriyoni matanhatu izvo, kufanana naMartha uye Camille iye zvino, zviri kuparidza “mashoko akanaka oumambo” pasi pose. (Mateu 24:14; 28:19, 20) Kufanana nevaKristu vomuzana remakore rokutanga, zvinokurudzirwa chaizvo ne“zvinhu zvikuru zvaMwari.” Zvinofara kuti zvine ropafadzo yokutakura zita raMwari uye kuti akadurura mudzimu wake pazviri. Pakupedzisira, zvinoita zvose zvazvinogona kuti ‘zvifambe zvakafanira Jehovha zvichimufadza kwazvo,’ zvichiva netsika dzaanoda muupenyu hwazvo hwose. Pakati pezvimwe zvinhu, izvi zvinosanganisira kuremekedza tsika dzinodiwa naMwari pamupfekero nechitarisiko chedu.—VaKorose 1:10; Tito 2:10.
12. Izano ripi rakananga pamusoro pomupfekero nechitarisiko ratinowana rakanyorwa pana 1 Timoti 2:9, 10?
12 Hungu, Jehovha akaratidza zvaanoda kuti tiite muchitarisiko chedu. Muapostora Pauro akanyora zvimwe zvezvinhu zvinodiwa naMwari panyaya iyi. “Ndinoda kuti vakadzi vashonge nguo dzakagadzirwa zvakanaka, vane mwero nokunaka kwepfungwa, kwete nemagadzirirwe okuruka bvudzi nendarama kana nemaparera kana nguo dzinodhura kwazvo, asi nenzira inokodzera vakadzi vanoti vanotya Mwari, * Tinodzidzei kubva mumashoko aya?—1 Timoti 2:9, 10.

13 Mashoko aPauro anoratidza kuti vaKristu vanofanira ‘kushonga nguo dzakagadzirwa zvakanaka.’ Chitarisiko chavo hachifaniri kuva chouyanga. Munhu wose zvake, kunyange varombo, vanogona kuita zvinhu zvine mwero zvakadaro zvinodiwa kuburikidza nokuona kuti zvipfeko zvavo zvakachena, uye zvinotaridzika zvakanaka. Somuenzaniso, gore negore Zvapupu zvomune imwe nyika yokuSouth America zvinofamba kwemakiromita akawanda nomusango uye zvozokwira igwa kwemaawa akawanda kuti zvinopinda kokorodzano yazvo yoruwa. Hazvishamisi kuona mumwe munhu achiwira murwizi kana kubvarurirwa hembe yake negwenzi murwendo rwacho.

Vanokoshesa kukokwa kwavakaitwa kuzodya patafura yaJehovha, uye vanoda kupfeka zvakakodzera.
14. (a) Zvinorevei kupfeka no“mwero nokunaka kwepfungwa”? (b) Kuti tipfeke ‘sevanhu vanoti vanotya Mwari,’ izvi zvinosanganisirei?
14 Pauro akaratidza zvakare kuti tinofanira kupfeka zvine “mwero nokunaka kwepfungwa.” Izvi zvinoreva kuti hatifaniri kupfeka zvinhu zvinoshamisira, zvinoratidza kupandukira, zvinokanganisa mafungiro evamwe, zvinosiya miviri yakashama kana kuratidza zviri mukati, kana kuti zvipfeko zvefashoni zvine mazita akakurumbira. Kuwedzera kune izvi, tinofanira kupfeka nenzira inoratidza ‘kutya Mwari.’ Izvozvo zvinotipa chimwe chinhu chokufunga nezvacho, handizvo here? Haisiri nyaya yokungopfeka zvakakodzera pakupinda misangano yeungano chete asi tichipfeka zvine uyanga pane dzimwe nguva. Chitarisiko chedu nguva dzose chinofanira kuratidza mafungiro okuremekedza, uye orukudzo nokuti tiri vaKristu nevashumiri maawa 24 pazuva.

15 Zano rakanyorwa pana 1 Johani 2:15, 16 rinopawo nhungamiro pane zvatinosarudza kuita nezvipfeko uye chitarisiko chedu. Tinoverenga kuti: “Musada nyika kana zvinhu zviri munyika. Kana munhu achida nyika, kuda Baba hakusi maari; nokuti zvinhu zvose zviri munyika—kuchiva kwenyama nokuchiva kwemaziso nokuratidzwa kwokushamisira kwezvinhu zvoupenyu zvomunhu—hazvibvi kuna Baba, asi zvinobva munyika.”

Nokuti Bhaibheri rinoti: “Kunyange Kristu haana kuzvifadza.” (VaRoma 15:3) Misoro yemhuri dzechiKristu inofanira kuva nehanya nechitarisiko chenhengo dzomumhuri mayo. Ichiremekedza Mwari ane mbiri wainonamata, misoro yemhuri haifaniri kuzeza kupa zano rakasimba, uye rorudo parinenge richifanira kupiwa.—Jakobho 3:13.

Chokwadi tinoda kufadza mwoyo wavo!—Zvirevo 27:11.
