LONG ol leta we aposol Pol i raetem long ol fas Kristin, plante taem hem i talem se hem i wantem we God mo Kraes tufala i glad long tingting we ol kongregesen oli soemaot. Long leta we i go long Timoti, hem i raetem se: “Masta blong yumi bambae i stap wetem yu long tingting blong yu. Mo hem bambae i stap givhan long yufala evriwan long gladhat blong hem.” (2 Tim. 4:22) Taem Pol i talem tok ya “tingting blong yu,” ?hem i minim wanem?

2, 3. (1) Taem Pol i talem tok ya “tingting,” ?hem i minim wanem? (2) ?Wanem ol kwestin we yumi wanwan i save tingbaot?

² Long ples ya, Pol i stap tokbaot “tingting” blong yumi we i stamba blong ol samting we yumi talem mo ol samting we yumi mekem. Maet tingting blong wan man i mekem we hem i kwaet, i tingbaot narafala, i kaen, i glad blong givim samting long narafala, mo i rere blong fogivim man. Baebol i talem se i gud ‘yumi kwaet man, we fasin blong yumi i stret gud.’ Hem i talem bakegen se yumi mas “stap kwaet,” hemia i min se yumi mas bos long tingting mo long ol fasin blong yumi. (1 Pita 3:4; Prov. 17:27) Maet tingting blong wan man i pusum hem blong talem ol samting we i mekem ol narafala oli kros. Maet wan narafala man i ting se mane i impoten moa long ol narafala samting. Tingting blong man i save mekem se hem i harem nogud kwiktaem long samting we narafala i talem. Mo tingting blong man i save mekem se hem i no wantem we narafala i talem long hem samting we hem i mas mekem. Tingting blong sam man i stap long ol rabis fasin blong man wetem woman, no i pulum olgeta blong oli mekem stronghed.

³ Taswe taem Pol i talem se “Masta blong yumi bambae i stap wetem yu long tingting blong yu,” hem i stap pulum ol brata mo sista blong oli folem fasin blong Kraes, mo blong oli gat tingting we God i glad long hem. (Ridim Kolosi 3:9-12.) I gud yumi wanwan i traem tingbaot se: ‘?Mi mi stap soemaot wanem tingting? ?Mi mi save mekem wanem, blong God i glad moa long tingting we mi mi soemaot? ?Mi mi save mekem wanem blong givhan long evriwan long kongregesen blong oli gat tingting we God i glad long hem?’ Traem tingbaot wan yad we i fulap long ol naes flaoa we kala blong olgeta i yelo. Strong kala blong ol flaoa ya wanwan i mekem yad ya i naes we i naes. Be yu, ?yu olsem wan long ol flaoa ya? ?Yu yu stap givhan blong mekem kongregesen i naes we i naes? Yumi evriwan i mas traehad blong mekem olsem. Naoia bambae yumi tokbaot wanem we yumi mas mekem blong God i glad long tingting we yumi soemaot.

“Jisas Kraes, Masta blong yumi, hem bambae i stap givhan long yufala long tingting blong yufala, long gladhat blong hem.”—FLM. 25.
