Twikaleyi na bukidi bwa kufwila bangi lusa na lotoolo mu kukimba bya kwibingisha.—Mulungudi 7:8, 9.
SU BONEEMEKA MUWA, ‘TOKATWALA BUSHITO BWA LUFU LWA MUNTU’
9. Yehowa badi mukwashe bena Isaleele bwabadya kupusha’shi muwa nkintu kya kishila naminyi?
9 Kamune ka ku tubingilo tubabadi batudile mpata ya kufwamina nka kukalwila bena Isaleele mu kusemuna dibasa dya mase pa kuponesha mase a muntu shii musoole. (Miiya Ikituulwe 19:10) Yehowa mmufule muwa, na mmushikwe bantu abayipayishena.

Badi akyebe kwamba’shi Bafundji na Bafadisee babadi bantu balombene kupatulwila bantu Eyi dy’Efile Mukulu na kwibakwasha bwabadya nkapeta muwa wa ikalaika. Pamutwe pa byabya, abo abadi abakimbi bya kukutshishwa bantu kulonda Yesu, mwikale “Nfumu a muwa.” (Bikitshino 3:15, Esambi dipya 2015) Mu uno mushindo abadi abakunkusha bantu ku kabutu. Bafundji na Bafadisee abadi na kwitatula na befule abo banabene, na tababadi ababasuka muwa wa bantu nya. Bino abilesha’shi abadi ba ntomboshi na bakutwe kifulo!

15 Bafadisee tababadi abasambisha muntu na lusa nya. Abadi abemeena pa mwanda ubakitshi muntu pamutwe pa kutala bi mwikelo waye. Bangi Bafadisee pababadi bamone Yesu adi kya kudya ku nshibo kwa Mateo, abayipwishe balongi baye’shi: Mateo 9:9-13) Yesu badi akalwila ba nkitshishi ba milwisho su? Ta mbyabya nya. Badi akumina’shi belangye. Uno ngi mwanda ukata ubadi mu mukandu ubadi alungula. (Mateo 4:17) Yesu bamwene’shi bamo “bafutshishi ba bitadi bebungi na bankitshishi-a milwisho” abadi abakumina kushintuluka. Tababadi bafikye ku nshibo kwa Mateo nka penda mu kudya nya. Abafikile pa ino nshibo mwanda abadi abalondo Yesu. (Maako 2:15) Mwanda wa malwa, Bafadisee bebungi tababadi abamono bantu mu mushindo ubabadi abebamono kwi Yesu nya. Tababadi abakumina’shi bantu mbalombene kushintuluka, na babadi abebamono bu bankitshishi ba milwisho bashii na lukulupilo. Uno mweneno a Bafadisee mwilekene ngofu na a Yehowa e na kululama na lusa!
“Bwakinyi mulambukishi eenu adi na baudishi ba bitadi na basha-milwisho?” Yesu namu bebalulwile’shi: “Ta mbe na mbidi bukome be na lukalo na munganga, anka basha mikumbo. Byabya ndaayi mu kuyiya kino kyambilo: ‘Ndusa lwankyebe, ta milambu.’ Mwanda ntshi mufikye mu kwitanyina balulame nya, ne mufikye bwa baasha-milwisho.” (16. Abitungu bakulu be mu komite a kusambisha bekitshishe bwa kuuka kinyi?

Su mmukite mulwisho, abitungu balonde myanda yabadi baleshe mu Bible bwabadya kuuka kya kukita.

17, 18. Bakulu be kuuka naminyi’shi muntu belanga binyibinyi? (Tala kifwatulo ki ku mbangilo.)

Byabya su we mukulu, we kuuka naminyi’shi muntu belanga binyibinyi? Kya kumpala, teka bwa kupeta binangu na kapatupatu ka Yehowa.

18 Kya kasatu, nangushena pabitale yawa muntu, kushii kutala penda mwanda ubakitshi. Eyipushe ino nkonko: Bwakinyi bakitshi byabya? Bwakinyi ekeele mwate kino kitshibilo? Nkalakashi kinyi yadi nayo na myanda kinyi imukambile?

Ayimusha be mu malwa mu bululame, aakwila balanda ba mwiumbo na kalolo.” (Yeeshaya 11:3, 4) Anwe bakulu, Yesu mmwinusangule bwanudya kulama kakongye, na akenukwasha bwanudya kutshiba kiimu na kululama na lusa. (Mateo 18:18-20) Twi na lutumbu lukata bu byatudi na bakulu abetupasukila! Abetukwasha dingi bwatudya kwileshena kululama na lusa munkatshi mwetu.
19. Ndilongyesha kinyi dyatupetela ku mpata ya kufwamina dyokumina kutumikila?
19 Mu Miiya ya Moyiise mwi “bushima bwa kiwukilo na bwa eyendo.” Ayitulongyesha pabitale Yehowa na mayi aaye a kulonda. (Beena-Looma 2:20) Mpata ya kufwamina yabadi baleshe mu mwiya, ayilongyesha bakulu mushindo wabadya ‘kutshiba biimu mu kululama,’ na ayitulongyesha boso bwetu bwatudya kwileshena “[kifulo] na lusa.” (Sekadya 7:9) Sunga byekala’shi tabetutekye bwatudya kulonda Miiya ya Moyiise, Yehowa tamushintulukye nya. Kululama na lusa bi nka na muulo ku meso kwaye. Twi na mwabi ukata wa kulangwila uno Efile Mukulu. Twambuleyi ngikashi yaye ibuwa na tutuuleyi kifwamino kyetu mwadi!
