Lokushiwo liBhayibheli
Cha. LiBhayibheli alisho kutsi imali yimbi, noma kutsi iyimbangela yato tonkhe tintfo letimbi. Lomusho lovamile lotsi “imali yimphandze yesono” ngemavi lasetjentiswa kabi latsetfwe eBhayibhelini.

Yini Leshiwo liBhayibheli ngemali?
LiBhayibheli liyavuma kutsi imali nayisetjentiswa kahle ilusito, iphindze ibe ‘yintfo yekukhosela.’ (Umshumayeli 7:12) Ngetulu kwaloko, liBhayibheli liyabancoma labo labapha labanye, lokufaka ekhatsi kubapha imali.—Taga 11:25.
Ngesikhatsi lesifanako liBhayibheli lisecwayisa ngekunaka kakhulu imali. Litsi: “Indlela leniphila ngayo ayingabi yekutsandza imali, kodvwa yeneliswani tintfo leninato.” (Hebheru 13:5) Sifundvo lesisitfolako kutsi kufanele siyisebentise kahle imali futsi singafuni bunjinga. Kunaloko, umgomo wetfu kufanele kube kwenetiseka ngetintfo lesitidzingako, letifaka ekhatsi kudla, kwekwembatsa, kanye nendzawo yekuhlala.—1 Thimothi 6:8.
Lisecwayiselani liBhayibheli ngekutsandza imali?
Bantfu lababukhali angeke bakutfole kuphila lokuphakadze. (Efesu 5:5) Sizatfu saloko kutsi bukhali buluhlobo lwekukhonta titfombe noma kukhonta kwemanga. (Kholose 3:5). Lokunye kutsi nabafise kwenta labakufunako, bantfu lababukhali abatinaki timiso letilungile. Taga 28:20 titsi: “kodvwa lojaka kuceba uyawutfola sijeziso.” Bangase balingeke kutsi bente bugebengu lobunjengekwesabisa bantfu, kungetsembeki, kukhwabanisa, kutfumba noma kubulala.
Ngisho noma kutsandza imali kungaholeli etentweni letimbi, kodvwa kungaba nemiphumela lemibi. LiBhayibheli litsi “labatimisele ngekunjinga bawela esilingweni, elugibeni, nasetifisweni letinyenti letingenangcondvo naletilimatako.”—1 Thimothi 6:9.
