Amucenjele kuti kutabi muntu uumoongelezya kuti mucegwe kwiinda mubusongo bwabantu alweeno, kweelana atunsiyansiya twabantu alimwi azintu zyantalisyo zyamunyika eeyi ikutali kweelana a Kristo.” (Kol. 2:4, 8) Paulo wakazumanana kupandulula kaambo mizeezo imwi iyakadumide ncoyatakaluzi alimwi akaambo kuyeeya kwabantu bamunyika ncokukonzya kubakwelelezya bantu batalondokede. Mucikozyanyo, kulakonzya kupa kuti muntu alimvwe kuba musongo alimwi akuti ulabainda bamwi. Makanze aalugwalo akali aakugwasya bakwesu kukaka kuyeeya kwabantu bamunyika azilengwa zibyaabi.—Kol. 2:16, 17, 23.

2. Ino nkaambo nzi ncotutiilange-lange zikozyanyo izijatikizya kuyeeya kwabantu bamunyika?

Mucibalo eeci, tulalanga-langa ncotukonzya kucita kutegwa kuyeeya kuli boobo kutanyonganyi mizeezo yesu. Tulalanga-langa zikozyanyo zyosanwe izijatikizya kuyeeya kwabantu bamunyika alimwi akubandika mbotukonzya kwiikaka mizeezo eeyo.

3. Ino nkuyeeya kuli buti nkobabikkila maano bantu banji, alimwi nkaambo nzi?

Ambweni kunyina nobabikkila maano kumakani aakuti Leza nkwali, babikkila buyo maano kumuzeezo wakuba alwaanguluko lwakucita zintu nzyobayanda. (Amubale Intembauzyo 10:4.)

Ciindi muntu nabikkila maano kusayaansi kutegwa azyibe naa buumi bwakalengwa buya, ulakonzya kusweeka akaambo kamakani manji aindene-indene. Pele mubwini bwiinguzi tabukatazyi. Ikuti naa ŋanda iyandika muntu umwi kutegwa iyakwe, sena inga tiicainda aawo kujatikizya zintu zipona? Mubwini, maseelo aapona imasyoonto kapati anyika alijisi bumpiyompiyo kapati kwiinda ŋanda iili yoonse nkaambo alakonzya kucita ncoitakonzyi kucita ŋanda nkokuti kupanga maseelo aambi kuzwa kuseelo lyomwe. Aboobo maseelo aaya alakonzya kuyobola akukkopolola makani aayandika kutegwa apange maseelo aambi kuzwa kulingawo. Ino bupange bwamaseelo aapona bwakazwa kuli?

5. Ino ncinzi ncotukonzya kwaamba kujatikizya muzeezo wakuti muntu umwi ulakonzya kuzyiba cibotu kakunyina kusyoma muli Leza?

⁵ Ino ncinzi ncotukonzya kwaamba kujatikizya muzeezo wakuti muntu ulakonzya kuzyiba cibotu kakunyina kusyoma muli Leza? Ijwi lya Leza lilaamba kuti bantu batasyomi inga kabajisi zyeelelo zimwi zili kabotu. (Rom. 2:14, 15) Mucikozyanyo, inga kababalemeka akubayanda bazyali babo. Pele ino inga zyasyomwa buti zyeelelo zyakulilemeka zyamuntu uukaka kuzumina Mulengi wesu siluyando kuti ngonguwe uubikka zyeelelo zyakuzyiba cibotu acibi? (Is. 33:22) Mazuba aano bantu banji ibasongo balazumina kuti ibukkale bwaindila kubija aano anyika businizya kuti bantu bayandika lugwasyo lwa Leza. (Amubale Jeremiya 10:23.) Aboobo tatweelede kusunkwa kuyeeya kuti muntu umwi ulakonzya kuzyiba cibotu kakunyina kusyoma muli Leza alimwi akutobela zyeelelo zyakwe.—Int. 146:3.

Kuyungizya waawo, zikombelo zinji zipa kuti bantu bazwe kuli Leza kwiinda mukuyiisya mulilo wahelo, kubwezelela mulumbo, naa kukambauka twaambo twacisi. Nkakaambo kaako ncouyaabukomena mweelwe wabantu ibalimvwa kuti balakonzya kukkomana kakunyina bukombi! Bantu ibali boobo balakonzya kwaamba kuti, “Makani aakumuuya ndilaayanda, pele tandinjili mumbunga zyabukombi.”

Bwini mbwakuti umwi ulakonzya kukkomana kakunyina bukombi bwakubeja, pele muntu takonzyi kuba alukkomano lwini-lwini ccita kuti kajisi cilongwe a Jehova, walo waambwa kuti ngu “Leza uukkomene.” (1Tim. 1:11) Zyoonse nzyacita Leza zilabagwasya  bamwi. Babelesi bakwe balikkomene nkaambo babikkila maano kugwasya bamwi. (Mil. 20:35) Mucikozyanyo, atulange mbuli bukombi bwakasimpe mbobupa kuti kube lukkomano mumukwasyi. Bukombi bwakasimpe bulatuyiisya kubapa bulemu mbotukwetene limwi, kubona zikonke zyamucikwati kuti zilisetekene, kutantamuka bumambe, kukomezya bana bajisi bulemu, alimwi akutondezyanya luyando lwini-lwini. Aboobo, bukombi buli boobu bulabakamantanya bantu mumbungano zikkomene alimwi akuba alukkomano lwabunyina bwanyika yoonse.—Amubale Isaya 65:13, 14.

Zintu zyoonse eezyi zilakonzya kuleta lukkomano, pele buumi bwesu bulijisi makanze mapati alo aaleta lukkomano lutamani. Mukwiimpana abanyama, tulakonzya kumuzyiba Mulengi wesu akumubelekela cakusyomeka. Twakalengwa munzila yakuti katujana lukkomano kwiinda mukucita boobo. (Amubale Matayo 5:3.) Mucikozyanyo, bakombi bakasimpe balakkomana akukulwaizyigwa kapati kwiinda mukuswaangana antoomwe kutegwa bamukombe Jehova. (Int. 133:1) Kunze lyaboobo balakkomana alukamantano lwabunyina, kupona buumi buli kabotu alimwi akuba abulangizi.

9. (a) Ino muzeezo nzi uudumide munyika kujatikizya koonana? (b) Ino nkaambo nzi Jwi lya Leza ncolikasya koonana kutali kwamu mulawo?

⁹ “Ino nkaambo nzi koonana kutali kwamu mulawo ncokukasyigwa?” Bantu balakonzya kutwaambila kuti: “Tweelede kulikkomanisya mubuumi. Ino nkaambo nzi koonana kutali kwamu mulawo ncokukasyigwa?” Muzeezo wakuti Munakristo weelede kubona koonana kutali kwamu mulawo kuti kuli kabotu tauluzi. Ino nkaambo nzi? Nkaambo kakuti Jwi lya Leza lilakasya bwaamu. * (Amubale 1 Batesalonika 4:3-8.) Jehova ulijisi nguzu zyakutupa milawo nkaambo ngonguwe wakatulenga. Leza waamba kuti mwaalumi amwanakazi ibakwetene balikke mbabazumizyidwe koonana. Leza ulatupa milawo akaambo kakuti ulatuyanda. Milawo njatupa ilatugwasya. Mikwasyi iitobela milawo ilaba aluyando, bulemu alimwi alukwabililo. Leza ulabasubula aabo ibasotoka milawo yakwe acaali.—Heb. 13:4.

10. Ino mbuti Munakristo mbwakonzya kutantamuka bwaamu?

¹⁰ Ijwi lya Leza lilatuyiisya mbotukonzya kubutantamuka bwaamu. Nzila imwi iiyandika kutegwa tucite oobo nkwiinda mukweendelezya zintu nzyotubona. Jesu wakaamba kuti: “Kufwumbwa muntu uulangisisya mukaintu cakumunyomenena, wacita kale bumambe anguwe mumoyo wakwe. Lino ikuti liso lyako lyalulyo kalikulebya, kolinonkola akulisowa.” (Mt. 5:28, 29) Aboobo, Munakristo ulatantamuka kweebelela zintu ziletela muzeezo wakoonana, naa kuswiilila nyimbo izijisi majwi aacisapi. Mwaapostolo Paulo wakalembela Banakristonyina kuti: “Amujaye zizo zyamubili wanu eezyo zili anyika kujatikizya zisusi mbuli bwaamu.” (Kol. 3:5) Kuyungizya waawo, tweelede kweendelezya mizeezo yesu alimwi azintu nzyotwaamba.—Ef. 5:3-5.

11. Ino nkaambo nzi kujana mulimo uuvwolwa mali manji ncokunga kwalibonya kuti nkubotu?

Mulimo uli boobo ulakonzya kutupa kuba aampuwo, kuba acuuno caatala, alimwi akuba alubono lunji. Akaambo kakuti banji babona kuti kujana mulimo uuvwolwa mali manji ncecintu ciyandika mubuumi, Munakristo ulakonzya kutalika kuyeeya boobo awalo.

12. Sena kuzwidilila mukujana mulimo uuvwolwa mali manji ncecintu cipati ciletela lukkomano?

Tamukonzyi kubelekela Leza alimwi a Lubono.” (Mt. 6:24) Ciindi notusaanguna kubikkila maano kukubelekela Jehova akuyiisya bamwi Jwi lyakwe, tulajana lukkomano lutaambiki. Eeci ncecakamucitikila mwaapostolo Paulo ciindi cimwi. Kumatalikilo mubuumi bwakwe, wakatalikide mulimo waatala kapati mubukombi bwaba Juda, pele wakajana lukkomano lwini-lwini ciindi naakatalika kugwasya bantu kuba basikwiiya alimwi akulibonena bantu mbobakautambula mulumbe wa Leza ambowakacinca buumi bwabo.
