“Kristo lwakwe wakapenga akaambo kandinywe, akumusiila citondezyo kutegwa mwiitobelesye mikondo yakwe.”—1PET. 2:21.
1. Nkaambo nzi kwiiya Jesu ncokukonzya kutuswenya afwaafwi a Jehova?
KANJI-KANJI twiiya baabo ibajisi bube alimwi ibacita zintu nzyotulombozya. Akati kabantu boonse ibakapona anyika, kunyina muntu ngotuyandika kwiiya kapati kunze lya Jesu Kristo.

Jehova wakatupa makani aayo, ngotujana mu Magwalo aa Banakristo aa Chigiriki, akaambo kakuti uyanda kuti tumuzyibe Mwanaakwe kutegwa tumwiiye. (Amubale 1 Petro 2:21.)

6 Bube bwakwe. Mulembi wa Bbaibbele Juda wakalemba cikozyanyo cijatikizya Jesu katanaboola anyika. (Amubale Juda 9.) Kali Mikayeli silutwe wabangelo, Jesu ‘wakaimpana a Diabolosi’ alimwi wakali “kukazyanya” amubyaabi ooyo. Kaambo kakali kujatikizya “mubili wa Musa.” Amuyeeye kuti Musa naakafwa, Jehova wakauzikka mubili mubusena butazyibidwe. (Dt. 34:5, 6) Ambweni Diabolosi wakali kuyanda kubelesya mubili wa Musa kutegwa asumpule bukombi bwakubeja. Kufwumbwa makanze mabyaabi Diabolosi ngaakajisi mumizeezo, Mikayeli cabusicamba wakaakazya.

Muciindi caboobo, bulemu boonse wakabugamika kuli Bausyi. (Mk. 10:17, 18; Joh. 7:16) Tanaakabanyansya basikwiiya bakwe naa kubapa kuti balimvwe kubula mpindu. Muciindi caboobo, wakabalemeka, wakabalumbaizya kububotu mbwaakabona mulimbabo alimwi akutondezya lusyomo mulimbabo. (Lk. 22:31, 32; Joh. 1:47) Zintu nzyaakali kucita. Jesu wakasala kupona buumi bwaansi kakunyina kulivwuzizya zintu zinji zyakumubili. (Mt. 8:20) Cakulisungula wakabeleka milimo yaansi kapati. (Joh. 13:3-15) Wakapa citondezyo cilondokede cakulicesya kwiinda mukumvwida kwakwe. (Amubale Bafilipi 2:5-8.) Mukwiimpana abantu balisumpula ibatayandi kumvwida, Jesu cakulicesya wakalyaaba kukuyanda kwa Leza kujatikizya nguwe, alimwi “akumvwida mane kusikila kulufwu.” Sena tacisalede kuti Jesu, Mwana aamuntu wakali “mubombe moyo”?—Mt. 11:29.

11. Amupandulule ncolwaamba luzyalo.

Magwalo alaamba kujatikizya “moyo waluzyalo” “luse” alimwi “aluyando lwamumoyo.” (Lk. 1:78; 2Kor. 1:3; Flp. 1:8) Kujatikizya ncaamba Magwalo kumakani aalubomba, bbuku limwi ilyaamba zyamu Bbaibbele lyaamba kuti: “Eeco tacaambi kuti swebo tweelede kubafwida buyo lubomba bacete pe. Pele caamba kubabikkila maano kapati alimwi akubagwasya kwiinda mukubweza ntaamu zikonzya kugwasya bamwi kutegwa zintu zitalike kubeendela kabotu.” Luzyalo mbobube bukonzya kutukulwaizya kucita boobu. Muntu siluzyalo ugwasya bamwi kuba abuumi bubotu.
12. Ncinzi citondezya kuti Jesu wakabafwida luzyalo bantu, alimwi ino luzyalo lwakwe lwakamupa kucita nzi?
12 Mbuti Jesu mbwaakatondezya luzyalo? Luzyalo lwakwe azintu nzyaakali kucita caluzyalo. Jesu wakali kubafwida luzyalo bantu. Ciindi naakabona mulongwaakwe Mariya alimwi abaabo mbaakalilimwi kabalila akaambo kalufwu lwamwanookwabo Lazaro, Jesu caantangalala “yakamweenda misozi.” (Amubale Johane 11:32-35.) Mpoonya, ambweni akaambo kakweetezyegwa mumoyo—mbubonya mbuli ciindi naakabusya mwana wamukamufwu—wakamubusya Lazaro. (Lk. 7:11-15; Joh. 11:38-44) Kwiinda mukutondezya luzyalo munzila eeyi, Jesu wakapa Lazaro bulangizi bwabuumi bwakujulu. Aciindi cimwi musyule, Jesu “wakabeetelela” bantu ibakaboola kulinguwe. Kwiinda mukubafwida lubomba, “wakatalika kubayiisya zintu zinji.” (Mk. 6:34) Eelo kaka bakacinca kapati bantu boonse ibakacita kweelana anzyaakali kuyiisya!

Wakakambauka mulumbe iwakali kupa bulangizi kutegwa “aange zilonda zyabaabo batyompedwe mumoyo.” (Is. 61:1) Wakabatamba aabo ‘ibakakatede akulemenwa’ kuti baboole kulinguwe, kabasyomezya kuti bakali ‘kuyookatalusyigwa.’ (Mt. 11:28-30) Wakasyomezya basikumutobela bakwe kuti Leza ulijisi luzyalo kumukombi wakwe umwi aumwi, kubikkilizya “abasyoonto”—aabo ibalibonya kuti tabayandiki kapati kweelana ambobazibona zintu bantu bamunyika eeyi.—Mt. 18:12-14; Lk. 12:6, 7.

15. Ncinzi ncotukonzya kucita kutegwa tubagwasye aabo ibali mbuli tete lipwayikide naa katambo kalambe kasuka busi?
