3 Badika Kibafumbwilwe 16:14, 16. Mwaku “Armagedone” ausanganyibwa penda mususa umune mu Bible, na autukila mu mwaku wa mu kina Ebelu aupatuula “Mwengye wa Megido.” (Kibaf. 16:16) Megido kibaadi kibundji kya mu Isaleele a kala. (Yosh. 17:11) Kadi Armagedone t’esambila mbalo kampanda i pa nsenga nya. Mu kwakula kwa kalolo, alesha nsaa ayikala “ba nfumu ba pa nsenga na basalayi babo” abebungu pamune bwa kulwa na Yehowa.

Atuuku naminyi’shi Armagedone alesha mbalo ya mu kifwanyi? Kya kumpala, t’akwikalaa mwengye wa Megido aumweneka bino nya. Kya kabidi mbalo i peepi na Megido ngipeela ngofu, na ta ngilombene kukumbana “ba nfumu ba pa nsenga” na basalayi babo, na bina ngoshi byabo nya. Kya kasatu anka bu byatukebimono mu uno mwisambo, ngoshi ya Armagedone ayikabanga nsaa i “ba nfumu” ba pa nsenga abalu na mwilo w’Efile Mukulu, upalakane pa nsenga ishima.

Ingi misusa, Yehowa badi mukwashe mwilo waye bwa kutshokola yaaya ngoshi. Kileshesho, ku “meema a Megido,” Efile Mukulu badi mukwashe Nsushi Barake bwadya kutshokola basalayi ba bena Kanana babadi ku bukunkushi bwa nfumu Sisera. Barake na mutemuki mukashi Debora babadi batumbule Yehowa bwa kyakya kilengyeleshi kya kutshokola. Babayimbile’shi: “Dya mwiyilu nyenyenyi ngilwe ngoshi . . . na Sisera. Mwela wa Kishone ngwibakombe.”—Bans. 5:19-21.

5. Mmu mushindo kinyi wi na muulo wikale ngoshi ya Armagedone ngilekene na ibalwile Barake?

5 Barake na Debora abadi bafudiishe loono lwabo na ano mayi: “Balwishi bobe booso Yehowa, beetute, byabya dingi bakuuku boobe bekale bu nguba p’atunduka na mbàdibàdi yaaye.” (Bans. 5:31) Mu nsaa ya Armagedone, beshikwanyi b’Efile Mukulu abakabutudibwa, nsaa i boso bafule Efile Mukulu abapashibwa. Anka kwi kwilekena kukata pabitale ino ngoshi ibidi. Mu nsaa ya Armagedone, mwilo w’Efile Mukulu taukalu ngoshi nya. T’abekala sunga na ma mputu nya! “Bukome [bwabo] bwi mu kunyinga kw’eshimba na mu lukulupilo” mwi Yehowa na bilwilo byaye bya mwiyilu.—Yesh. 30:15; Kibaf. 19:11-15.

6. Yehowa mukumbene kufuba na kinyi bwa kubutula beshikwanyi baye mu ngoshi ya Armagedone?

6 Mushindo kinyi aukatshokola Efile Mukulu beshikwanyi baye mu ngoshi ya Armagedone? Mu mishindo ibungi ilekene. Kileshesho, mukumbene kufuba na kutshinkatshinka kwa nsenga, kasangu, na mikyenyi ya mpeshi. (Yob. 38:22, 23; Es. 38:19-22) Mmukumbene kutakula beshikwanyi baye bwabadya kulwa abo banabene. (2 Mya. 20:17, 22, 23) Mmulombene kufuba na mikeyilu yaaye bwa kwipaa ba ntomboshi. (Yesh. 37:36) Sunga Efile Mukulu afuba na kinyi, akatshokola. Beshikwanyi baye boso abebabutula. Na balulame booso abakapanda.—Nki. 3:25, 26.

MYANDA KINYI AYIKAKITSHIKA KUMPALA KWA ARMAGEDONE?

7-8. (a) Bu byabidi mu 1 Beena-Tesalonika 5:1-6, mmusaase kinyi wilekene na ingi misaase yooso wabakele kwi bakata ba pa nsenga? (b) Bwakinyi ano aekala bu madimi e masaku?

7 Musaase wa “kufukama na kwiyikeela” awikala kumpala kwa ngoshi ‘y’efuku dya Yehowa.’ (Badika 1 Beena-Tesalonika 5:1-6.) Mu 1 Beena-Tesalonika 5:2, “Efuku dya Yehowa” adilesha “mpombo ikata.” (Kibaf. 7:14) Mushindo kinyi watukauku’shi yaya mpombo ikata tayidi pa kubanga? Bible alesha’shi, akukekala musaase wilekene na misaase yooso. Awikala bu kitundwilo kya’shi mpombo ikata tayidi pa kubanga.

8 Bible amba’shi akukekala musaase wa “kufukama na kwiyikeela.” Bakata ba mbulamatadi abakebyamba naminyi? Bakata ba bipwilo abakekala nabo su? Olo. Anka, atuuku’shi musaase wa “kufukama na kwiyikeela,” wabakele kwi bakata ba mbulamatadi nyi madimi aatukila kwi ba demo. Kadi, ano madimi e masaku mwanda bantu abanangushena’shi be mu kufukama, kumpala kwa’shi mpombo ikata ibangye. Eyendo, “yawa ngi nguba ebapulukila kabutu, musuusa umune, anka bu abifikaa busuungu kwi mukashi ee n’eyimi.” Nkinyi akikafikila bafubi ba Yehowa basha lulamato? Abakakanya mwanda tabauku nsaa ayibanga efuku dya Yehowa, anka abekala bapwe kwilumbuula.

9. Mmushindo kinyi wabakabutula ndumbulwilo a Satana kwi Efile Mukulu?

Kumpala akabutula Babilone Mukata, nsangilo a bipwilo bya madimi. Akupu mu ngoshi ya Armagedone, akabutula kipindji kya ndumbulwilo a Satana akishaala, na myanda yakyo ya politike, ya basalayi, na ndumbulwilo ya busunga. Tubande kutalula binobino ino ndumbulwilo ibidi.

10. Muyiile Kibafumbwilwe 17:1, 6 na 18:24, bwakinyi Yehowa akabutula Babilone Mukata?

10 “Kiimu kya ndumba mukata.” (Badika Kibafumbwilwe 17:1, 6; 18:24.) Babilone Mukata mmusabulushe eshina dy’Efile Mukulu ngofu. Mmulongyeshe madimi pabitale Efile Mukulu. Anka abikalaa ndumba mukashi, kipwilo kya madimi nkikutwe lulamato kwi Yehowa pa kukwatshishena mbulamatadi ya bana ba bantu. Kipwilo kya madimi nkikengyeshe bantu bakyo na kwibanyenga makuta. Na dingi kipwilo kya madimi nkiipee bantu bebungi mpa na bafubi b’Efile Mukulu. (Kibaf. 19:2) Yehowa akabutula Babilone Mukata naminyi?

11. “Nyema monga” alesha kinyi na mushindo kinyi wabakafubu naye bwa kubutula Babilone Mukata?

11 Yehowa akabutula “ndumba mukata” kubukwashi bwa “nsengwa ekumi” ya “nyema monga.” Yawa nyema a mu kifwanyi alesha ndumbulwilo a Nations unis. Nsengwa ekumi ayilesha mbulamatadi ikwete kukwatshishena uno ndumbulwilo. Apakakumbana nsaa y’Efile Mukulu, ano makome ooso a politike aakalu na Babylone mukata. “Abikapaula kyoso kyadi n’akyo, bimulekye muswa” pakumwata mapeta aye na kulesha bantu milwisho yaye. (Kibaf. 17:3, 16, EEM) Kwakwa kulwishibwa kwa bukidibukidi—mwifuku dimune—akukakalakasha boso abaadi abamukwatshishena, mwanda baadi etatula na kwamba’shi: “Nee pa lupuna nsulu bu ndalamumba, ntshi mukashi kilele’mi nya, ntammono maalo nya.”—Kibaf. 18:7, 8.

12. Yehowa t’akatadiila bena nsenga bwashi bakite kinyi, na bwakinyi t’ebatadiila?

12 Efile Mukulu takatadiila bwashi bena nsenga babutule mwilo waye nya. Mwilo waye wi na muloo wa kutwala eshina dyaye, na mbakokyele ku mwiya waye wa kutuka mu Babilone Mukata. (Bik. 15:16, 17; Kibaf. 18:4) Mbafube ngofu bwa kukwasha bangi bwabadya kukatuka mu Babilone Mukata. Byabya, sunga’shi abakakalwila bafubi ba Yehowa nsaa yakabutudibwa, abekala nka na lukalo lwa lukumino lwi bukopo bwa byoso abikakitshika kunyima.

13 Ngoshi ya Goge. (Badika Esekyele 38:2, 8, 9.) Kunyima kwa kabutu ka ndumbulwilo a bipwilo bya madimi, mwilo w’Efile Mukulu aukashala bupenka nka abikalaa mutshi ubapanda ku kipapi kikata. Eyendo, Satana ekala na nsungu. Akalesha yaaya nsungu ku bukwashi bwa “bikudi bi butete,” abyo nyi mmyanda ya madimi ayitukila kwi ba demo abikatakula kisaka kya miilo bwa kulwa na bafubi ba Yehowa. (Kibaf. 16:13, 14) Byabya bisaka bya miilo abebitamina bu “Goge a kwiumbo dyaa Magoge.” Miilo p’ayikabanga ngoshi, ayikafiki ku mbalo ya mu kifwanyi yabetamina bu Armagedone.—Kibaf. 16:16.

14. Goge akatundula kinyi?

14 Goge akakulupila mu “bukome bwa bantu”—nyi nkwamba’shi bisaka byaye bya basalayi. (2 Mya. 32:8) Atukakulupila mwi Yehowa Efile Mukulu etu—miilo ayikamono byanka bu kukutwa kwa binangu. Mwanda efile abo Babilone Mukata ayikalanga na bukome, kadi tamwibapashe ku “nyema” na “nsengwa ekumi” nya. (Kibaf. 17:16) Paapa Goge akapwandikisha’shi mbibofule bwadya kwitutshokola. “Bwikumbi dibwikile [nsenga],” akalu na mwilo wa Yehowa. (Es. 38:16) Anka paapa, Goge akamono’shi bakwatshika ku muteo. Mumune na Faraone mu Kalunga Kamonga, Goge akatundula’shi kwete kulwa na Yehowa.—Efi. 14:1-4; Es. 38:3, 4, 18, 21-23.

15 Kidishitu na bilwilo byaye bya mwiyilu abakakalwila mwilo w’Efile Mukulu na kubutula Goge na basalayi baye. (Kibaf. 19:11, 14, 15) Nkinyi akikafikila Satana mwishikwanyi mukata a Yehowa, kwete kudimba miilo na kwiyitakula mu kulwa na mwilo w’Efile Mukulu? Yesu akamusumbula na ba demo baye mu bwina, mwamwa abakamushikila mwanka munda mwa bipwa kinunu.—Kibaf. 20:1-3.

Atulesha dingi’shi twi bamufule na atumukokyela na kumulangwila nka penda aye.

Mwanda ‘kuukibwa naaye’ akulesha kukuminyibwa n’Efile Mukulu.
