1924​—⁠Makore 100 Adarika

“KUTANGA ke gore, i nguwa yakanaka ku mwana umwe na umwe wakadzipira kuna Tenzi . . . kupsvaka mukana we kuita zvakawanda,” izvi ndizvo zvakabhuiwa no Boletim a ra Janero ra 1924. Mu kuhamba ke gore irona, Afundi e Bhaibheri akaseenzesa zano iri nge mishobo miiri: Kuseenzesa mishobo mipsva ye kuparidzira uye kuparidzira no ushingi.

MUSHOBO MUPSVA WE KUPARIDZIRA, KUSEENZESA RADHIYO

Painga poodarika gore, hama dzo ku Bheteri dzaiwaka misora we radhiyo inozwi WBBR ku Ilha Estadual, Thaundi re Nova Iorque. Mumasure me kucenesa mbuto yaizowakwa, awona akawaka predhiyo huru kuti igarhwe no aya aizoita basa ro kuwaka uye predhiyo yaizogara midziyo yaizoseenzeswa pa kuita mabasa akasiyana-siyana. Mumasure mazvo, hama dzakatanga kubatanidza maferamenta aidikanwa kuti atange “kupeperusa” masoko. Asi painga pano zvitsinzwa zvakawanda zvaaizobatana nazvo.

Cekutanga cakhona, cainga ciri cekuda kuimisa antena huru yo radhiyo. Izvona zvaishupa maningi ngokuti antena iyona yainga yakareba mametro anokwana 91 uye paidikana kukandwa maphoo maiiri e matabwa ese ainga akareba mametro anokwana 61. Pakutanga azvizi kubudirira. Asi hama dzakagonda no rubetso ra Djehovha uye dzakazokwanisa kuturika anteneyo. Calvin Prosser, wakaseenza pa basa iri wakati: “Kudai takakwanisa kuita basa iri pakutanga, taizobhuya tecidada kuti, ‘Onai zvataita!’” Hama dzakapasa rukudzo Djehovha, asi painga pano zvinetso zvimweni zvataidikana kugadzirisa.

Teciimisa phoo ro antena yo WBBR

Kuseenzeswa ke radhiyo kainga kuciri kutanga uye midziyo yaidikanwa kuti titenge kainga kusina. Hino hama dzakakwanisa kuona mudziyo we kupeperusa we 500-watts wainga waseenzeswa, asi wainga uri mudziyo we anhu asina ruziyo. Pane kuti atenge mikrofoni, awona akaseenzesa terefoni. Pedzepo, mu usiku umweni mu Fevrero, hama dzakasanangura kuedza zvese zvatainga taita. Sezvo awona aida zviro zvekuti apeperuse, hama dzakasanangura kuemba ngoma nganani dze Umambo. Ernest Lowe aazi kukanganwa zvakaitika hama padzaiemba, idzona dzakafonerhwa no mutongi Rutherford, b uwo waizwa radhiyo ku Brooklyn, iyo inogara 25 metro kubva ipona.

Hama Rutherford ecitamba akabhuya kuti: “Imai kuita barulha, imwimwi muri kuita hinga zvibishau zvakawanda zviri kucema!” Hama dzakapsveruka uye dzakaima kupeperusa, asi awona akazwisisawo kuti ainga atogadzirira kuti apeperuse kekutanga.

Mu 24 ya Fevrero ya 1924, pa nguwa yaipeperuswa kekutanga zviri pa mutemo, Hama Rutherford akadimura misora uu we radhiyo “kuti useenzeswe mu basa re umambo wa Mesiya.” Awona akabhuya kuti cinangwa ce misora uu we radhiyo cainga ciri ce “kubetsera anhu, azvinei no zvaanotenda kana gereja raanopinda kuti azwisise nguwa yatiri kurarama maererano no Bhaibheri.”

Ku moko boshwe: Hama Rutherford mu estudhiyo yokutanga yo WBBR

Ku moko kwawo: Maferamenta akaseenzeswa pa misora we radhiyo

Kupeperuswa kekutanga kakanyasa kubudirira, zvekutoti makore 33 akazoteera, WBBR yakagara misora we radhiyo waiseenzeswa no sangano.

USHINGI WE KUBUDISA PAMHENE MANYEPO E ATUNGAMIRIRI E MAGEREJA

Mu Julho ya 1924, afundi e Bhaibheri akaungana kuti aite gungano ku Columbus, Ohio.

Ciitiko cimweni cakaitika pa gungano, cakaitika mu Cishanu 25 ya Julho Hama Rutherford akapangidza ushingi we kubudisa pamhene manyepo e atungamiriri e magereja. Izvona akazviita hingana kutoti i dhokumento re kutonga, irona raipumha atungamiriri e zvematongerhwe e nyika, e magereja uye e zvekutengeserana kuti “anhu arambe urongwa wa Mwari wekuti akomborerhwe no upenyu.” Kusiya izvona, awona aibhuya kuti anhu aya “aitsigira Liga das Nações, eciidainza hingana ‘kupangidzwa ke zvematongerhwe e nyika e umambo wa Mwari pa nyika pano.’” Afundi e Bhaibheri aidikana kugara no ushingi uye kushingirira kuti atore masoko aya kuti aabvunzewo anhu amweni.

Murindiri wakabhuyawo ngezve kubata-bata kakaita gungano irona, weciti: “Cikwata cidoko ici ce masurudado muna Tenzi, cakaungana pa Gungano ku Columbus cakaenda cakabambiswa mu kutenda. . . , cakagadzirira kudzidziirira pa pfuti kana pa mipasha inobaka yaizoseenzeswa no azondi kuti aarhwise.” Leo Claus wakapinda gungano iri wakati: “Isusu takabvepo tecipfara kuti tiziise ngezve manyepo aya ku mutanha kedu.”

Kopiya ye tratadho rakazwi: Acusados os Eclesiásticos

Mu thaundi ridoko rinozwi Cleveland, ku Oklahoma, Frank Johnson wakapedza kukowanisa matratadho ake pecisara miseswa 20 kuti ikwane nguwa yaainga apangana kusongana no hama dzimweni. Anarume anganani mu thaundi iri akanyangadzwa maningi nge kuparidzira kaiita hama Frank uye akatanga kutoapsvaka. Ndiyo ndaa, awona ainga asikadikani kuima ecietsera hama dzimweni. Pedzepo, awona akasanangura koofindara mu gereja rainga riri padhuzepo. Sezvo imona mainga musina munhu, awona akasiya makopiya manganani e Acusados os Eclesiásticos mukati me Bhaibheri ra pastori uyewo pa kadera imwe na imwe mu gerejemo. Awona akaita izvona nokukasika. Uye sezvo ainga aciri no nguwa, akaendazve mu magereja maiiri eciita zvimwezvo.

Frank wakazohwirira ecigogoma ecienda ku mbuto iya yaainga apangana no hama kuti asongane. Awona akafindara sure ke mbuto inotengeserhwa gazorina uye eciona kuti anhu aiateera aizoguma here. Anhu aya akadarika ngece mberi ke mbutoyo, asi aazi kuaona. Mumasure mazvo, hama dzaiparidzira ngece padhuzepo dzakaguma, idzona dzakatorana na Frank uye oenda.

Amweni aierenga tratadho uye amweni aipangidzira tratadho irona kuna pastori. Isusu takapona nge pa boo re tsingano! Uye tinotenda Djehovha nge kutidziirira uye kutibetsera kunzvenga azondi aya e Umambo.”

MUEZANISO WE USHINGI MU BASA RE KUPARIDZIRA

Józef Krett

Ku nyika dzimweni, Afundi e Bhaibheri aiparidzirawo no ushingi. Katemaidumba ke França, Józef Krett wakaparidzira anhu anganani anoseenza mu mugodhi ainga auya kubva ku Polônia. Uyezve hama dzakapika agari e thaundi irona kuti auye koozwa mharidzo yaizoizwa ndi hama Józef, yainga ino musoro unoti: “Em Breve os Mortos Serão Ressuscitados.” Pastori umweni wakarambidza atendi ake kuti asaende koozwa mharidzo iyona.

Mharidzo dzaakaita uye mabhuku aakasiya, zvakaita kuti cokwadi cibararike no kukasika mu nyikeyo. Umwe we aya akazwa mharidzo dza Hama Brown ndi John Blankson, iyena waiita kursu ye kuseenza mu farmasiya uye ndipona paakaona kuti wainga agumira cokwadi. Iyena unoti: “Cokwadi cakandisiya ndecipfara uye ndaireketa ngezvaco nguwa dzese ku fakurdhadhe ye farmasiya.”
