Ingabe ucabanga ukuthi umhlaba uzobhujiswa? Mhlawumbe ucabanga ukuthi lokho kuzokwenzeka ngenhlekelele ezokwehlela umhlaba wonke. Abanye bakholelwa ukuthi leyo nhlekelele isiseduze, ikakhulukazi uma befunda imibiko yezindaba efana nale:

•   “Impi yezikhali zenuzi ezilalisa uyaca ingaba khona ngempela. Kungenzeka iqale ngenhloso, ngephutha noma ngenxa yokungaqondi kahle.”—I-Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists.

•   “Kule minyaka eyishumi edlule kuye kwaba nokwanda okukhulu kweziphepho, imililo yamahlathi, izomiso, ukuphela kwemibala yamakhorali, ukushisa okukhulu kanye nezikhukhula.”—I-National Geographic.

•   “Isikhonyane siye senza umonakalo omkhulu kakhulu kulama shumi eminyaka adlule e-Afrika.”—I-The Associated Press.

 Ingabe umhlaba uzobhujiswa enhlekeleleni ezayo? Lithini iBhayibheli?

 Cha. IZwi likaNkulunkulu, iBhayibheli, liyasiqinisekisa ngokuthi umhlaba uyohlala kuze kube phakade. (UmShumayeli 1:4) Kunokubhubhisa umhlaba awudala, uNkulunkulu ‘uzobhubhisa labo abacekela phansi umhlaba.’—IsAmbulo 11:18.

 Abantu abenza lokho abakufunayo esikhundleni sokwenza lokho okufunwa uNkulunkulu yibo iBhayibheli elithi ‘bayizwe’ elizobhujiswa. Njengasezikhathini zikaNowa, uNkulunkulu uzoqeda ‘izwe labantu abangamhloniphi uNkulunkulu.’—2 Petru 2:5; 3:7.

 Njengoba eyoku-1 Johane 2:17 isho, “izwe liyadlula, kanjalo nesifiso salo.” Leli vesi libonisa ukuthi uNkulunkulu uzobhubhisa abantu abaqhubeka benza izinto ezingalungile, hhayi iplanethi yethu ewumhlaba.

 IBhayibheli alisitsheli ngokuqondile usuku okuyofika ngalo ukuphela. (Mathewu 24:36) Kodwa liyasibonisa ukuthi sekusondele. IBhayibheli libikezela lokhu:

•   “Ezindaweni ngezindawo” kuzoba nezenzakalo ezifana nezimpi, ukusweleka kokudla, izifo eziwumshayabhuqe nokuzamazama komhlaba okukhulu.—Mathewu 24:3, 7, 14; Luka 21:10, 11; IsAmbulo 6:1-8.

•   Abantu bayoba abanobugovu. Ngokwesibonelo, bayoba “abathanda imali,” “abangabongi,” ‘nabangakwazi ukuzithiba.’—2 Thimothewu 3:1-5.

 Abantu abaningi baye bavuma ukuthi kusukela ngo-1914, izinto ezenzeka emhlabeni ziye zafana nalezo ezabikezelwa iBhayibheli, nokuthi ukuphela kuseduze. Ukuze ufunde okwengeziwe, bheka isihloko esithi “Ukulandelana Kwezenzakalo ZeBhayibheli Ngokohlelo Lwezikhathi Kubonisani Ngonyaka Ka-1914?” nesithi “Siyini Isibonakaliso ‘Sezinsuku Zokugcina’ Noma ‘Ukuphela’?”

 Incwadi yokugcina yeBhayibheli ikhuluma ngesikhathi ‘sokwambulwa kweNkosi uJesu,’ lapho iza inamandla okususa bonke ububi emhlabeni futhi inike umvuzo labo abakhonza uNkulunkulu.—2 Thesalonika 1:6, 7; 1 Petru 1:7, 13.

 Le ncwadi isitshela ngezenzakalo eziseza. (IsAmbulo 1:1) Inezindaba ezinhle nomyalezo onikeza ithemba. (IsAmbulo 1:3) Ibonisa ukuthi uNkulunkulu uzokuqeda konke ukungabi nabulungisa, enze umhlaba ube ipharadesi. Ngaleso sikhathi abantu ngeke baphinde bezwe ubuhlungu bahlupheke noma bafe.—IsAmbulo 21:3, 4.

 Ungathanda yini ukufunda okwengeziwe ngalezi zithembiso zeBhayibheli ezimangalisayo? OFakazi BakaJehova banohlelo lwesifundo seBhayibheli samahhala esingakusiza. Ungabathinta noma nini.
