NjengoFakazi BakaJehova, silwela ukunamathela endleleni yobuKristu eyafundiswa uJesu futhi yalandelwa abaphostoli bakhe. Lesi sihloko sichaza kafushane ngezinkolelo zethu eziyisisekelo.

1.   UNkulunkulu. Sikhulekela owukuphela kukaNkulunkulu weqiniso futhi onguMninimandla Onke, uMdali, ogama lakhe linguJehova. (IHubo 83:18; IsAmbulo 4:11) UnguNkulunkulu ka-Abrahama, uMose noJesu.​—Eksodusi 3:6; 32:11; Johane 20:17.

2.   IBhayibheli. Sibheka iBhayibheli njengeliwumyalezo kaNkulunkulu ophefumulelwe oya kubantu. (Johane 17:17; 2 Thimothewu 3:16) Sisekela izinkolelo zethu kuzo zonke izincwadi zalo ezingu-66, ezihlanganisa “iTestamente Elidala” ‘neTestamente Elisha.’ UProfesa Jason D. BeDuhn wachaza kahle lapho ebhala ukuthi oFakazi BakaJehova basekela “izinkolelo nezinkambiso zabo kulokho okushiwo iBhayibheli njengoba kunjalo ngaphandle kokunquma kusengaphambili ukuthi kufanele lithini.” a

    Nakuba silamukela lonke iBhayibheli, asisebenzisi ubufandamentali. Siyaqapela ukuthi izingxenye ezithile zeBhayibheli zilotshwe ngendlela engokomfanekiso noma emelela okuthile futhi akufanele zithathwe njengoba zinjalo.​—IsAmbulo 1:1.

(IzEnzo 11:26) Nokho, sifundile eBhayibhelini ukuthi uJesu akayena uNkulunkulu onguMninimandla Onke futhi imfundiso kaZiqu-zintathu ayisekelwe emiBhalweni.​—Johane 14:28.

4.   UMbuso kaNkulunkulu. Unguhulumeni ongokoqobo osezulwini, awusona isimo esisezinhliziyweni zamaKristu. Uzothatha isikhundla sohulumeni babantu futhi ufeze injongo kaNkulunkulu ngomhlaba. (Daniyeli 2:44; Mathewu 6:9, 10) Lezi zinto uzozenza maduze, ngoba iziprofetho zeBhayibheli zibonisa ukuthi siphila “ezinsukwini zokugcina.”​—2 Thimothewu 3:​1-5; Mathewu 24:​3-​14.

    UJesu uyiNkosi yoMbuso kaNkulunkulu osezulwini. Waqala ukubusa ngo-1914.​—IsAmbulo 11:15.

5.   Insindiso. Singakhululwa esonweni nasekufeni ngesihlengo sikaJesu. (Mathewu 20:28; IzEnzo 4:​12) Ukuze bazuze kuleso sihlengo, abantu akumelwe babonise ukholo kuJesu kuphela kodwa kufanele bashintshe nendlela yabo yokuphila futhi babhapathizwe. (Mathewu 28:19, 20; Johane 3:​16; IzEnzo 3:​19, 20) Imisebenzi yomuntu iyona ebonisa ukuthi ukholo lwakhe luyaphila. (Jakobe 2:​24, 26) Nokho, umuntu akanakukufanelekela ukuthola insindiso​—siyithola ‘ngomusa ongafanelwe kaNkulunkulu.’​—Galathiya 2:​16, 21.

8.   Ububi nokuhlupheka. Lokhu kwaqala lapho enye yezingelosi zikaNkulunkulu ihlubuka. (Johane 8:​44) Le ngelosi, ngemva kokuhlubuka kwayo eyabizwa ngokuthi “uSathane noDeveli,” yanxenxa abashadikazi bokuqala ukuba bazibandakanye nayo, futhi imiphumela iye yaba inhlekelele enzalweni yabo. (Genesise 3:​1-6; Roma 5:​12) Ukuze axazulule izimpikiswano ezaphakanyiswa uSathane, uNkulunkulu uye wabuvumela ububi nokuhlupheka, kodwa ngeke abuvumele kuze kube phakade.

(Mathewu 10:8; 23:8) Asikhokhisi okweshumi, futhi akukho nkongozelo eyamukelwayo emihlanganweni yethu. (2 Korinte 9:7) Yonke imisebenzi yethu isekelwa iminikelo futhi akushiwo ukuthi ivela kubani.
