Ngo-1987, uLyman Swingle, owayeyilungu leNdikimba Ebusayo yoFakazi BakaJehova, wakhuluma nabantu abangu-63 580 ababebuthene enkundleni iPlaza Monumental, eValencia, eVenezuela. Abaningi babehambe ngamabhasi ubusuku bonke ukuze bazothamela inkulumo yakhe. Ekhuluma naleso sixuku esikhulu, uMfoweth’ uSwingle wathi: “Aniselona igatsha elincane. Seniyigatsha elilingene. Futhi kubonakala sengathi maduze nizoba elinye lamazwe anabamemezeli abangu-100 000.”

Ngo-1987, eVenezuela kwakunabamemezeli abangu-38 000—oFakazi BakaJehova abashumayela njalo ngezindaba ezinhle zoMbuso. Ngaleso sikhathi, ayengu-8 kuphela amazwe ayenabamemezeli abangaphezu kuka-100 000.

OFakazi BakaJehova emhlabeni wonke baye banda ngendlela emangalisayo. Ngemva kweMpi Yezwe I, babeyizinkulungwane ezimbalwa kuphela ababememezela uMbuso kaJehova obala. Izinto zashintsha. I-1943 Yearbook of Jehovah’s Witnesses yathi: “Umbiko ohlangene ka-1942, nakuba ungaphelele, ngenxa yezindlela zokuxhumana, uyisibusiso . . . , ngoba ubonisa ukuthi emhlabeni wonke sekunabamemezeli abangaphezu kuka-106 000 ababika umsebenzi [wokushumayela izindaba ezinhle].“ Ngisho naphakathi kweziyaluyalu seMpi Yezwe II, abantu abaningi basabela kahle eqinisweni leBhayibheli. Ngo-1950, abamemezeli base-United States iyodwa badlula ku-100 000.

Izwe elalandela ngokufika enanini labamemezeli elingu-100 000 kwaba yiNigeria, ngo-1974.

Ngonyaka olandelayo, inani labamemezeli kokubili eBrazil naseGermany ladlula ku-100 000. Lokhu kwanda emazweni amane kufakazela ukuthi iqiniso leBhayibheli likhanga bonke abantu.

Kuwo wonke umhlaba, amanani alabo abamukela izindaba ezinhle aye aqhubeka anda. Lokhu kuvumelana nalokho okwabikezelwa iBhayibheli: “Omncane uyoba yinkulungwane, umuntukazana abe yisizwe esinamandla. Mina, Jehova, ngiyokusheshisa ngesikhathi sako.”​—Isaya 60:22.
