Muanda bakuete kufubisha nsaa yabo i bungi buabadia kulama kakongie, na kupasukila midimo yabo. (1 Mp. 5:1-3) Muloo autuukilaa mu kufubila kua bangi, ngukile kintu kioso kiakia kiatudia kuisumina.—Bik. 20:35.
6. Mu ingi mishindo kinyi modi mulombene kuleesha’shi we “muntu akuukilaa beenyi”? (Bena Ebelu 13:2, 16; tala dingi kifuatulo.)

Muntu akuukilaa beenyi, aleeshaa kalolo kui bantu ba bipaso bioso. Bu kileshesho, aleeshaa kalolo kui balanda, kui bantu babafiki mu kuela muisambo mu kakongie kabo, na kui bano abekitshishaa ngofu buabadia kunyingisha bakuabo balume na bakashi bu bakunkushi ba bifunda.—Kib. 18:2-8; Nki. 3:27; Luk. 14:13, 14; Bik. 16:15; Lom. 12:13.
7. Mukulu e kuleesha naminyi’shi ta “muntu mufule makuta”?

(Mat. 6:24; 1 Yo. 2:15-17) Eyipushe obe nabene’shi: ‘Namonaa makuta bu kinyi? Nasankaa na biandi nabio su? Sunga’shi natuulaa binangu biande nka bua kupeta makuta e bungi na kupeta bintu bi bungi bia ku mbidi su?’—1 Ti. 6:6, 17-19.

Bu kileshesho, tuekala muntu e na kudia sunga kutoma kui bungi nya, nfuadilo oobe sunga ntshibilo oobe a nyeene ekala na nkatshinkatshi, na wata bitshibilo bi buwa pabitale mushindo wa kukisha kapapi. Tuambula nfuadilo sunga ntshibilo a nyeene ekalaa naye bantu bash’abafubilaa Yehowa nya.

Bu kipeta, opusha muanda kalolo, na wata bitshibilo bi buwa, na tuekala na bukidi bua kuata bitshibilo nya. Mu kuilekeena na biabia, wekala mushinkamishe’shi bopu kuikala na mianda yooso ayitungu pabitale wawa muanda. (Nki. 18:13) Su bopu kuuka mianda yooso kalolo pabitale wawa muanda, wekala na nkatshinkatshi mu kuata kua bitshibilo abileesha bi mueneno a Yehowa. Su buekala “muntu shi na kafutakanyi,” wekala muntu muilumbuule na aneemeka nsaa. Wekala muntu muukibue bu muntu abadia kukulupila na bu muntu alondaa buludiki.

Bino abikutungu’shi wekale “muntu akunkusha kalolo ba mu nshibo yobe.” Bino abikutungu’shi wekale na nkumo ya bu muntu mufule kifuko kiaye, na aataa mashito aaye a bu nfumu a kifuko na muulo. Abikutungu’shi wekale okunkusha lulanguilo lua mu kifuko kiobe, wekale oshinkamisha’shi ba mu kifuko kiobe abatuelaa mu bisangilo bia bena Nkidishitu, na webakuashe buabadia kuikala balungudi be buwa ba mukandu wi buwa. Buakinyi bino bi na muulo? Mpoolo mutumibua baadi munangushene’shi: “Su muntu tawuku bia kukunkusha kalolo ba mu nshibo muaye, mbikunyi biadi mulombene kulama kakongie k’Efile Mukulu?”—1 Ti. 3:5.
11-12. Mmushindo kinyi ulombene muikeelo wa bantu ba mu kifuko kuikala na bukitshishi ku ngikashi itekibue ya nshe bana? (Tala dingi kifuatulo.)
11 Su we nshe bana, abitungu’shi “bana bobe bakinga bakukookiele na kalolo koso.” Abitungu webalongieshe na kuibalambukisha na kifulo kioso. Mu binyibinyi, bana bakinga booso abakumiinaa kuasha nabo maasha na kukita tu mianda atuibasepesha. Biabia, ku muanda webalongiesha na kalolo kooso, abekala na kukookiela, na kaneemo, na muikeelo wi buwa.

Su nshe bana ekeele abepuula mashito aaye a kulongiesha yawa muana na kumunyooka, pangi e bu bakutua kulombasha ngikashi itekibue ya kuikala bu mukulu.—Tala muisambo wi mu Kitenta kia Mulami kia 15/10/1996, esak. 21, kikos. 6-7, mu nfualase.
FUBA BUA KUKUASHA KAKONGIE
13. We kuleesha’shi we “muntu e na nkatshinkatshi” na “shi na mutue wibukopo” naminyi?
13 Bakuetu balume be na ngikashi i buwa ya bu bena Nkidishitu, be na muulo ukata mu kakongie. Muntu e na “nkatshinkatshi” afuishaa butaale. Su okumiina’shi bantu bakuukie bu buntu e na nkatshinkatshi, ikala oteemesha bangi na kukumiina mueneno aabo. Mu bisangilo, we kukumiina namu kukuatshishena kitshibilo kia bantu be bungi su t’akiipaa muiya wa mu Bible sunga mayi a kulonda? “Tuekalanga muntu a mutue wibukopo” bino abikiebe kupushisha’shi t’abitungu’shi okuminyishishe bangi muanda nka mu mushindo okumiina’shi wikale. Muanda wi na muulo nkuuka’shi abitungu namu kuteemesha mueneno a bangi. (Kib. 13:8, 9; Nki. 15:22) “Tuekalanga muntu mukumiine kutontoola” sunga “akuataa nsungu bukidi.” Pa mutue pa kuikala muntu a mianda i bukopo-bukopo, abitungu kuikala muntu sha butaale na kaneemo. Muntu sha butaale nsaa ayituuku mianda ya kuikakeena. Abitungu wekale muntu a kumpala kufuisha butaale mu mianda yooso. (Yak. 3:17, 18) Ngakuilo oobe a kalolo e kupeelesha nsungu ya bangi mpaa na ya beshikuanyi nobe.—Bans. 8:1-3; Nki. 20:3; 25:15; Mat. 5:23, 24.

14 Mukuetu mulume mulombashe ngikashi ya kuikala bu mukulu, “Ta mulombene kuikala muntu mupia mu lukumiino.” Su tobandile kuikala na bipua bi bungi n’obe kubatshishibua, abikutungu mafuku e bungi bua kuikala muina Nkidishitu munyingie mu kikudi. Kumpala kua’shi bakutuule bu mukulu, abitungu oleeshe’shi we muiyishe nka bu Yesu, na’shi otengiela Yehowa akufubishe mu mudimo ooso w’akumiina.

15. Abitungu’shi mukulu ekale muntu elaa miisambo ya bantu booso kalolo su? Patuula.
15 Bible apatuula kalolo’shi abitungu bakulu bekale “bantu balombanyiine kulongiesha.” Bino abipushisha’shi, abitungu ekale muntu elaa miisambo ya bantu booso kalolo su? Nya. Ta mbakulu booso abeelaa miisambo ya bantu booso kalolo nya, anka nsaa y’abende mu bulungudi na mu kukunka mikooko, bakulu be na lukalo lua kuikala na ngobesha ya kufubisha Bible kalolo bua kulongiesha na kunyingisha bakuetu balume na bakashi.

16. Mmushindo kinyi oodi mulombene kuikala mulongieshi e buwa? (Tala dingi kifuatulo.)
16 “Lamata pepoo kuiyi dia lulamato.” Bua kuikala mulongieshi e buwa, abitungu miisambo ya bantu booso na malango oobe bituukile Muiyi di’Efile Mukulu. Ikala welongiela kalolo Bible na mikanda yetu. (Nki. 15:28; 16:23) Nsaa yuelongiela, tuula binangu biobe ku mushindo ubabapatuula verse a mu Bible kui mikanda yetu na biodia kumutumikila mu mushindo wi buwa. Na dingi, nsaa y’olongiesha ekitshishe bua kukuma mashimba a baaba abakuteemesha. Na dingi bua’shi wekale mulongieshi e buwa, teka malango kui bakulu babapu kuisha na weatumikile. (1 Ti. 5:17) Abitungu bakulu bekale “abawuku . . . kunyingisha” bakuabo balume na bakashi; anka abitungu dingi bakulu baate nsaa ya kulanga sunga “kuibasaashila.” Abitungu bakite bino bioso na kalolo. Su buekala na kalolo na kifulo na buata malongiesha oobe Muiyi di’Efile Mukulu, wekala mulongieshi e buwa, muanda wambula Yesu Nkidishitu Mulongieshi Mukata.—Mat. 11:28-30; 2 Ti. 2:24.

17 Kunyima kua kutaluula ino ngikashi itekibue bua muntu kuikala bu mukulu, bangi bafubi ba midimo be kupusha’shi ta be na ngobesha ya kulombasha ino ngikashi. Anka tentekiesha’shi Yehowa na ndumbuluilo aaye ta mbalombene nkuteka bua’shi wekale na ino ngikashi yooso mu mushindo upuidikie nya.

(Yesh. 64:8) Yehowa elele kuikitshisha koobe miabi i bungi bua’shi olombashe ngikashi itekibue bodia kuikala mukulu.
