Ndokusaka pfungwa dzedu isu vanhu vane chivi dzichingoda kuita zvinhu zviri nyore zvisingadi kunyanya kushandisa pfungwa. Saka nguva yakanaka yokufungisisa ndeiya yokuti unenge usina kuneta, uri panzvimbo yakanyarara isina zvinokutsausa. Munyori wepisarema akaona kuti nguva yousiku ndiyo yainge yakamunakira kuti afungisise.

(Pis. 104:24; Mab. 14:17) Jehovha anonzwa sei patinonyengetera tichimurumbidza uye patinotaura nevamwe nezvake? Bhaibheri richitaura nezvemazuva  ano okupedzisira rinoti: “Panguva iyoyo vaya vaitya Jehovha vakataurirana, mumwe nomumwe neshamwari yake, Jehovha akaramba akateerera uye achinzwa. Bhuku rokuyeuchidza rakatanga kunyorwa pamberi pake nokuda kwevaya vanotya Jehovha nevaya [vanofungisisa] nezvezita rake.”—Mar. 3:16.

⁹ Muapostora Pauro akaudza Timoti kuti ‘afungisise’ kuti mashoko ake, mufambiro wake uye zvaaidzidzisa zvaizobatsira sei vamwe. (Verenga 1 Timoti 4:12-16.) Kungofanana naTimoti, isuwo tine zvinhu zvokunamata zvakawanda zvatinogona kufungisisa nezvazvo. Somuenzaniso, tinoda kuzvipa nguva yokufungisisa patinenge tichigadzirira kuzodzidza nemumwe munhu Bhaibheri.

Kana tikagadzirira seizvi patinenge tichida kudzidza nemunhu Bhaibheri, tichasimbisa kutenda kwedu uye tichanakidzwa nokudzidzisa vanhu Bhaibheri uye tichava vadzidzisi veShoko raMwari vakanaka. Tinobatsirwawo kana tikagadzirira mwoyo wedu tisati taenda mubasa romumunda. (Verenga Ezra 7:10.) Kuverenga chitsauko chimwe chete mubhuku reBhaibheri raMabasa, ‘kuchakuchidzira’ chido chedu chokuita ushumiri. Kufungisisa ndima dzomuBhaibheri dzatinenge tichida kushandisa musi iwoyo uye mabhuku atinenge tichironga kupa vanhu, kuchatibatsira kuti tinyatsoita basa redu. (2 Tim. 1:6) Funga nezvevanhu vari mundima yenyu uye kuti zvii zvavangafarira. Kana tikagadzirira saizvozvo, tichabudirira kuparidza ‘tichiratidza simba’ rine Shoko raMwari.—1 VaK. 2:4.

Chimwe chakatonyanya kunakira kumbomira uye kufungisisa paunenge uchiverenga mabhuku edu ndechokuti zvaunodzidza zvinonyatsopinda mupfungwa, uye uchawana mukana wokunyengetera kuna Jehovha uchimutenda nezvinhu zvakanaka zvauri kudzidza.

Bhuku iri rinobatsira chaizvo kunyanya kana tikaverenga uye tikafungisisa ndima dzeEvhangeri dzinenge dzakanyorwa muchitsauko chimwe nechimwe.—Joh. 14:6.

13, 14. Nei zvichikosha chaizvo kuti tirambe tichifungisisa zvinhu zvokunamata, uye izvozvo zvichaita kuti tiitei?

¹³ Kufungisisa zvinhu zvokunamata kunobatsira muKristu kuti asimbise ushamwari hwake naJehovha. (VaH. 5:14; 6:1) Munhu asingagari achifungisisa nezvaJehovha naJesu haagoni kuramba aine kutenda kwakasimba. Zviri nyore kuti munhu akadaro akukurwe kana kuti apedzisire abva pachokwadi. (VaH. 2:1; 3:12) Jesu akanyevera kuti kana tikasanzwa kana kuti tikasagamuchira Shoko raMwari “nomwoyo wakarurama uye wakanaka,” hatigoni ‘kurichengeta.’ Zviri nyore kuti ‘titsauswe nokuzvidya mwoyo uye pfuma nemafaro zvoupenyu huno.’—Ruka 8:14, 15.

(2 VaK. 3:18) Tinogona kuramba tichidzidza nezvaBaba vedu vokudenga uye tichivatevedzera nokusingagumi. Hakuna imwe ropafadzo inopfuura iyoyo!—Mup. 3:11.

15, 16. (a) Kufungisisa zvinhu zvokunamata kunotibatsira sei? (b) Nei dzimwe nguva zvisiri nyore kufungisisa, asi nei tichifanira kuramba tichiedza?

¹⁵ Kuramba tichifungisisa zvinhu zvokunamata, kuchaitawo kuti tirambe tichikoshesa chokwadi. Izvi zvichaita kuti tikurudzire hama dzedu uye vanhu vanofarira vatinoona muushumiri. Kufungisisa nezvechipo chikuru chatakapiwa naMwari chechibayiro chorudzikinuro chaJesu kuchatibatsira kuti tikoshese ropafadzo yatinayo yokuva neukama hwepedyo naBaba vedu Vatsvene, Jehovha. (VaR. 3:24; Jak. 4:8) Imwe hama yokuSouth Africa inonzi Mark iyo yakapedza makore matatu iri mujeri nemhaka yekusapindira mune zvenyika yakati: “Kufungisisa kwakafanana nerwendo runonakidza uchienda kunzvimbo yausati wamboenda. Patinoramba tichifungisisa zvinhu zvokunamata, tinorambawo tichidzidza zvinhu zvitsva nezvaMwari wedu, Jehovha. Dzimwe nguva pandinenge ndiine zviri kundinetsa kana kuti ndichizvidya mwoyo nezveramangwana, ndinoverenga Bhaibheri ndotanga kufungisisa Rugwaro rwandinenge ndaverenga. Pfungwa dzangu dzinobva dzagadzikana.”

¹⁶ Upenyu munyika ino hwakazara nezvinhu zvinotsausa zvokuti dzimwe nguva zvakaoma chaizvo kufungisisa zvinhu zvokunamata. Imwe hama yomuAfrica inonzi Patrick yakati: “Ndinogona kufananidza zvinhu zviri mupfungwa dzangu nemameseji anenge akazara mufoni. Mamwe acho anokosha asi mamwe acho haakoshi. Saka ndinenge ndichifanira kudzima aya asina basa ndosara neanokosha. Pandinenge ndichiongorora zviri mupfungwa dzangu, ndinowanzowana ‘pfungwa dzinondinetsa,’ uye ndinobva ndanyengetera kuna Jehovha kuti ndikwanise kufungisisa ndisina zviri kundivhiringa. Izvi zvinogona kumbonditorera kanguva ndisati ndatanga kufungisisa, asi zvinondibatsira kuti ndinzwe ndiri pedyo naJehovha. Pfungwa dzangu dzinobva dzavhurika zvokuti ndinokwanisa kunyatsonzwisisa chokwadi.” (Pis. 94:19) Saka zviri pachena kuti munhu wose ‘anoongorora Magwaro zuva nezuva’ uye anofungisisa zvaanenge achidzidza, anobatsirwa chaizvo.—Mab. 17:11.

18. Bhaibheri rinotii nezvevanhu vose vanofungisisa Shoko raMwari zuva nezuva uye vanoedza kushandisa zvavanodzidza?

Jehovha achaita kuti tifare iye zvino uye achatipa upenyu husingaperi munyika itsva yake yakarurama.—Jak. 1:25; Zvak. 1:3.
