“‘Chishima’ Chize Chili ni Ulumbunwiso Hali Yetu”
(A-Ngalashia 4:24, 25) Yino yuma yinapu chishima: mumu wano aali, usendo wo walipwila; umwe wa ku mulundu wa Sinai, kakusema ana ku ndungo, iye Hekare. 25 Acho, yono Hekare kanapu mulundu wa Sinai, mu Arabia, kanalite ni Yerusaleme yize ya haliapwile; mumu yili mu undungo hamwe ni ana jayo.

Hekare
Kulita ni postolo Paulu, mu chishima chino Hekare te kanalumbunuka A-Izalele a musunya, waze Yehova alingile no usendo wa Shimbi ku Mulundu wa Sinai. Usendo wacho we wasemene “ana ku undungo.” Ha mukunda wa uhenge wo, A-Izalele yehuka usendo wacho. Kashika, kakapwile ni utuswilo, alioze yaahisa ngwe yivulumunyi waze atela kufwa, mumu te kali ndungo. (Yo 8:34; Ro 8:1-3) Yerusaleme ya ku matangwa ja Paulu te yinalumbunuka Hekare, mbonge ya Yerusaleme te yinalumbunuka A-Izalele a musunya, e ana ja Hekare, ayo eswe kapwile mu undungo. Alioze akwa-Kristu waze asemukine kulita ni spiritu yisandu, kali ana ja “Yerusaleme . . ya kwilu,” yize yinalumbunuka pwo lia Zambi. Yerusaleme yacho, yili ngwe Sara, pwo yoze wapwile ni utuswilo, kakapwile mu undungo. Alioze, chizechene ngwe Izake apwile ni kumuhungumiona kuli Ishemali, ni ana a “Yerusaleme yize ya kwilu,” waze anakatusula kuli Mwana, no kanakaahungumiona kuli ana ja Yerusaleme yize yapwile mu undungo. Kashika, muze ahangile Hekare ni mwanenyi, te chinalumbunuka ngwo Yehova malituna A-Izalele a ku musunya ngwe vungu lienyi.—Nga 4:21-31; tala nawa Yo 8:31-40.
(A-Ngalashia 4:26, 27) Alioze Yerusaleme yize ya kwilu hi ndungo ko, iye mama wa yetu eswe. 27 Mumu chinasonewa ngwo, Wahilila, yena mumba, kushi kusema; kalumioka, ukololoke, yena kushi kufumbajala. Mumu ana ja twamishi anji kuhiana, yoze uli ni mukwo-lunga akepe.

Kolesa Ufulielo we ha Wanangana
11 Usendo wa Apalahama wamanunukine muze munyachi wa Apalahama wahingile Chifuchi cha Chilakenyo. Alioze Yisoneko yinasolola ngwo, usendo wacho uli nawa ni umanunuko ukwo wa spiritu. (Ngala. 4:22-25) Umanunuko unene wa usendo uno ngwe chize postolo Paulu alumbunwine kulita ni usolwelo, unatale ha chihanda chitangu cha munyachi wa Apalahama mwe Kristu, alioze umanunuko wamuchiali unatale hali akwa-Kristu akuwayisa ni spiritu, 144,000. (Ngala. 3:16, 29; Uso. 5:9, 10; 14:1, 4) Pwo yoze wasemene munyachi wacho kali “Yerusaleme yize ya kwilu,” che chihanda cha ululikiso wa Zambi wa mu malilu, uze uli ni yitangiwa ya spiritu yashishika. (Ngala. 4:26, 31) Kulita ni chilakenyo cha usendo wa Apalahama, munyachi wa pwo te muuneha yiwape yinji kuli atu.
(A-Ngalashia 4:28-31) Acho, yetu, mandumbu, chizechene ngwe Izake, tuli ana a chilakenyo. 29 Alioze chizechene ngwe ha miaka yize, yoze wasemukine nikulita ni musunya wahungumionene yoze wasemukine nikulita ni Spiritu, chocho nawa haliapwila. 30 Alioze Chisoneko cha Zambi chika chinambe? Ngwo, Mbila haze ndungo wa pwo ni mwanenyi: mumu mwana wa ndungo kechi kahinga hamwe ni mwana wa pwo mwenya chifuchi. 31 Chocho mandumbu, hi tuli ana ja ndungo ko, alioze tuli ana ja pwo mwenya chifuchi.

(A-Ngalashia 4:6) Mba se tuli ana, Zambi hanatumu Spiritu wa Mwanenyi mu mbunge jetu, muli iye tunalembe ngwetu, Ta-ta, Tata.

Unachinyingika nyi?
Mumu liaka Yesu alembele kuli Yehova ngwenyi, “Ta-ta, Tata” hanji Aba?
Liji lia Arame ‘Ta-ta, Tata’ hanji Aba, mulihasa kulumbunuka “tata” hanji “Tata Yami.” Ha yisuho yitatu yize liji lino linasoloka mu Yisoneko, kalizachishile ha yilemba yize yinatale kuli Tata wa mu malilu, Yehova. Liji lino yika linalumbunuka?
Umwe mukanda unalumbununa Mbimbiliya unambe ngwo: “Ha mashimbu ja Yesu, liji Ta-ta hanji Aba liapwile liji lia vumbi lize ana apwile ni kusanyika atato.” (Enciclopédia Bíblica Padrão Internacional) Nawa muze ana te akulilongesa kuhanjika te kakuputuka ni liji lino. Yesu kazachishile liji lino muze te analembe ni kuliumba kuli Tato. Mu munda wa Ngetesemane, muze te hikwasala akehe Yesu afwe, yalemba kuli Yehova ni maliji wano, “Ta-ta, tata [hanji Aba.]”—Marku 14:36.
Kulita ni mukanda uze twavuluka kwilu, “jina lino Aba te keshi kulizachisa chinji mu mikanda ya A-Yunda ha mashimbu ja A-Ngregu ni A-Roma, mumu A-Yunda te kakumona ngwe hi vumbi ko kuvuluka Zambi ha jina lino.” Alioze, “muze . . . Yesu azachishile liji lino mu yilemba, te kanazange kusolola pundu ngwenyi, kali ni usepa ukolo ni Zambi.” Amu postolo Paulu azachishile liji Aba mu Yisoneko ha yisuho yikwo yaali— chino chinasolola ngwo, Akwa-Kristu a ku sekulu yitangu no te kakulizachisa mu yilemba yo.—A-Roma 8:15; A-Ngalashia 4:6.
(A-Ngalashia 6:17) Chize ku haliapwila niumwe kanda akangupinjisa, mumu ngunambata ha mujimba wami yimbambili ya Mwene Yesu.
Unachinyingika nyi?
Yika postolo Paulu te anambe kwamba muze ambile ngwenyi, ngunambate ha mujimba wami yimbambili ya Mwene Yesu?—A-Ngalashia 6:17.
▪ Atu waze apanjikile maliji wano a Paulu ku sekulu yitangu, kota kapanjikile mu majila alisa. Chakutalilaho, ku mashimbu akunyima te kakuzachisa chikungo cha kahia hanga ase yimbambili ha mijimba ya funge yipwe ngwe yinyingi yakwasolola ngwo, kali funge a mu jita, akwa-kwiya mu ma Tembele, hanji ndungo waze achinyine. Mutu yoze te wakupwa ni yimbambili yacho ha mujimba te kakumulelesa chinji.
Alioze, yimbambili yino te keshi kuyimona wika mu jila yipi. Atu anji ku mashimbu akunyima te kakuyizachisa hanga asolole ngwo, kali a ku vungu limwe hanji katwama ku chihela nganji. Chakutalilaho, umwe mukanda unambe ngwo, “A-Seria te kakulisa yimbambili ha kota hanji ha kwoko hanga asolole ngwo, kalihana kuli tuzambi Hadade ni Atárgatis . . . Atu waze te akulihana kuli Dionísio te kakwasa yimbambili ya mafwo a hera ngwe chilayi.”
Atu anji kakutayiza ngwo, Paulu te kanahanjika ha yimbambili yize amusele ha kumuhungumiona ha mukunda wa mulimo wenyi wa Mishionaliu. (2 A-Korindu 11:23-27) Paulu kota te kaso kuhanjika hakutwala ku yimbambili ya ha mujimba, alioze ha mwono wenyi—uze te wa kumusolola ngwe mukwa-Kristu.

Ha mukanda wa A-Efwesu 1:9-11, iye kambile hakutwala ku chize Zambi anyingikishine “chijimbikilo” cha upale wenyi, yamba nawa ngwenyi: “Nikulita ni chize chamupemena, chize aliselele kulinga muli iye mwene; ndo ku kuyula cha kumanunuka cha miaka, hanga akaswise yuma yeswe muli Kristu, yuma yize yili mu malilu ni yuma yize yili hano hashi, muli iye mwene ngwami. Muli iye nawa hanatupwisa chihinga, se atufunjikile shimbu te miaka kanda yipwa, nikulita ni kupala cha yoze wakulingisa yuma yeswe nikulita ni mana ja upale wenyi.” “Chijimbikilo” chino chinatale ha umwe unguvulu, Wanangana wa Mesaya wa Zambi. “Yuma yize yili mu malilu” yize Paulu ahanjikile, yili atu waze makahinga Wanangana wa mu malilu hamwe ni Kristu. “Yuma yize yili hano hashi” yili atu waze makatwama hano hashi.

Kashika, ha “kumanunuka cha miaka,” Zambi hanase ‘chiyulo’ hanga anunge yitangiwa yenyi yeswe ya mana. (Tanga A-Efwesu 1:8-10.) Chiyulo chacho muchikamanununa milimo yaali. Mulimo utangu, uli kululieka chikungulwila cha akwa-Kristu akuwayisa ni spiritu, hanga akatwame mu malilu hamwe ni Yesu Kristu mwe Mutwe wo wa ku spiritu. Kuyula chacho chaputukile ha Pentekoste 33 M.J. muze Yehova aputukile kukunga waze makayula hamwe ni Kristu mu malilu. (Yili. 2:1-4) Akwa-Kristu akuwayisa ni spiritu kakwavuluka ngwo kali angunu nawa kanatela mwono hamukunda wa chitapo cha ukuule wa Kristu, kashika ayo akutayiza pundu ngwo kali “ana a Zambi”—Roma 3:23, 24; 5:1; 8:15-17.

Kashika akuyivuluka ngwo, “spiritu musandu” nawa ngwo, “spiritu ya usandu.” (Sam 51:11; Lu 11:13; Ro 1:4; Efw 1:13) Spiritu yisandu yize yakukalakala muli atu, yili tachi ja usandu hanji jalinanga. Nyi twalinga yitanga yipi mutusolola ngwo, tunalimika ni spiritu yacho hanji ‘tunayivwisa chinyengo.’ (Efw 4:30) Chipwe ngwe spiritu yisandu hi mutu ko, alioze yakusolola usandu wa Zambi, kashika mutuhasa kuyivwisa chinyengo. Mutu nyi malinga shili yeswayo, mahasa ‘kujima mwe spiritu.’ (1Te 5:19) Kununga ni kulinga shili che chakuvwisa spiritu yisandu ya Zambi chinyengo, kashika, mutu yoze malinga chino mahasa kupwa mukwa kole ya Zambi. (Iza 63:10) Mutu yoze mevwisa chinyengo spiritu yisandu, muchihasa kupwa ngwe kanayituka, nawa yili shili yize Yesu Kristu ambile ngwenyi, kechi kayikonekena chipwe ha matangwa ano, chipwe waze mezaho.—Mat 12:31, 32; Mar 3:28-30; tala nawa SPIRITU.
(A-Efwesu 5:5) Mumu chino nunanyingika chamwenemwene ngwo, Chitanji niumwe, chipwe mukwa luchisa, chipwe mukwa kuzo, mwenawo mukwa kukombelela mahamba, kechi kupwa ni chihanda mu wanangana wa Kristu ni Zambi.

Kuzo
Yakusoloka ha Yitanga. Kuzo yakusoloka ha yitanga hanji ha usolo upi wa mutu. Tiangu kasonekene ngwenyi, usolo upi muze hiwakola, wakusema shili. (Tia 1:14, 15) Mutu yoze ukwete kuzo mahasa kumunyingika ha yitanga yenyi. Postolo Paulu kambile ngwenyi, mukwa kuzo kanalumbunuka mukwa kukombelela mahamba. (Efw 5:5) Mutu wacho, kakupwisa chuma chize anevwila usolo ngwe zambi yenyi, ni kuchisa ha chihela chitangu ku mwono wenyi kuhiana kulingila ni kuwayila Tangi.—Ro 1:24, 25.

YIKUMA YILEMU YA MU LIJI LIA ZAMBI | A-FWILIPU 1-4
“Kanda Nukalipikala ha Chuma Nichimwe”
(A-Fwilipu 4:6) Kanda nukalipikala ha chuma nichimwe; alioze ha yuma yeswe ku kulemba ni kuliumba hamwe ni kusakwila, kwita chenu akachinyingike kuli Zambi.
“Sambukila ya Zambi, . . . Yakuhiana Kunyonga Cheswe”
10 Yika muyihasa kutukwasa hanga tuhone ‘kulipikala ha chuma nichimwe’ alioze tupwe ni “sambukila ya Zambi”? Maliji a Paulu kuli A-Fwilipu kanasolola ngwo muze mutulipikala ha umwe kapalia, yitumbo yapwa wika kulemba. Kashika muze tunalipikala, twatamba kwalumuna yipikalo yetu mu yilemba. (Tanga 1 Petulu 5:6, 7.) Muze unalembe kuli Yehova, fuliela pundu muli iye ngwe makukwasa. Sakwilila Zambi mashimbu eswe ha yiwape yize akukwaha. Nawa kanda uvulama ngwo, Yehova mahasa ‘kulinga kuhiana yeswe yize tunechi hanji tunanyongo.’—A-Efwesu 3:20.
(A-Fwilipu 4:7) Mba sambukila ya Zambi, yize yakuhiana kunyonga cheswe, muyikafunga mbunge jenu ni kunyonga chenu muli Kristu Yesu.
“Sambukila ya Zambi, . . . Yakuhiana Kunyonga Cheswe”
7 Muze mandumbu mu Fwilipu atangile mukanda uze Paulu aasonekenene, yika anyongene ha mukanda wacho? Anji akuli ayo kota kewulukile yize yalingiwile kuli Paulu ni Saila ni ha yuma ya susumuku yize Yehova alingile hanga aakwase. Longeso lika Paulu aehele ha mukanda wacho? Longeso liapwile ngwo: Kanda nukalipikala. Lembenu, hanga nutambule “sambukila ya Zambi yize yakuhiana kunyonga cheswe.” Yika maliji wano analumbunuka? Mbimbiliya jimwe jakwamba ngwo, sambukila ya Zambi “yahiana yilota yetu yeswe” hanji “yapalika yiyulo yeswe ya atu.” Kashika Paulu ambile ngwenyi, “sambukila ya Zambi” yilemu chinji kuhiana yize mutuhasa kunyonga. Ha mashimbu amwe twakuhona kunyingika jila yakuhwishilamo yipikalo yetu, alioze Yehova kananyingika chize mayihwisa. Nawa iye mahasa kulinga yuma yize kutushi ni kushimbwila.—Tanga 2 Petulu 2:9.
w17 15/8 14-15 ¶16
“Sambukila ya Zambi, . . . Yakuhiana Kunyonga Cheswe”
16 Yika muyikatukwasa mba tuzuke “sambukila ya Zambi, yize yakuhiana kunyonga cheswe”? Mbimbiliya yinambe ngwo sambukila ya Zambi “muyikafunga” mbunge ni manyonga jetu. (A-Fwilipu 4:7) Mu limi lize asonekene nalio Mbimbiliya liji “kufunga” te kakulizachisa kuli maswalale hanga avuluke chizavu cha tujita waze te akwete chiteli cha kufunga mbonge. Atu waze te atunga mu mbonge ya Fwilipu te kakwaafunga kuli yizavu yacho. Atu jacho te kakupomba kanawa ha ufuku nikunyingika ngwo mbonge yo yili yakufunga kanawa. Chizechene nawa, nyi twapwa ni “sambukila ya Zambi,” kutuchi kulipikala chinji, nawa mbunge ni manyonga jetu mapwa ni ukulungunga. Tunanyingika ngwetu Yehova matufunga nawa kanazange hanga tupwe ni mwono upema. (1 Petulu 5:10) Nawa kakutukwasa ku manyonga waze akwiza ku kulipikala hanji kulema ku mbunge.
Kuhengwola Yikuma Yilemu ya mu Mbimbiliya
(A-Fwilipu 2:17) Ewa, nyi mangutehuna ngwe mulambu wa kunwa ha chitapo cha uvumbiko wa ufulielo wenu, kachi munguwahilila, mungulikwiza hamwe ni yenu eswe.
it-3 123 ¶6
Milambu
Mulambu wa kunwa. Mulambu wa kunwa kaapwile ni kuuhana hamwe ni milambu yikwo. A-Izalele kapwile ni kuhana chinji mulambu wacho muze ahetele mu Chifuchi cha Chilakenyo. (Kwa 15:2, 5, 8-10) Walwa uze te akuhana wapwile vinyu (“kunwa chisasu”) yize apwile ni kuzujila ha chilumbilo. (Kwa 28:7, 14; tesa ni Kut 30:9; Kwa 15:10.) Postolo Paulu kanakasonekena akwa-Kristu a ku Fwilipu ngwenyi: “Nyi mangutehuna ngwe mulambu wa kunwa ha chitapo cha uvumbiko wa ufulielo wenu, kachi munguwahilila.” Ha chisoneko chino, Paulu kazachishile liji mulambu wa kunwa, hanga te asolole ngwenyi, kazachishile chinji mwono wenyi hanga alingile mandumbu jenyi akwa-Kristu. (Fwp 2:17) Muze te hikwasala hakehe hanga afwe, yasonekena Timoteu ngwenyi: “Himungutehuka ngwe mulambu; mwaka wa kutusuka chami hiweza.”—2Ti 4:6.
(A-Fwilipu 3:11) Kachi ngukazuke kama uhindukilo hakachi ka afu.
w07 1/1 26-27 ¶5
Uhindukilo Utangu—Hiwaputuka!
5 Akwa-Kristu akuwayisa ni spiritu, e “A-Izalele a Zambi,” makalichinga ni Yesu Kristu mu uhenya wa mu malilu. Mwenamo makapwa “matangwa eswe hamwe ni Mwene.” (A-Ngalashia 6:16; 1 A-Tesalonika 4:17) Yuma yino kakuyivuluka ngwo, “uhindukilo hakachi ka afu” hanji “uhindukilo utangu.” (A-Fwilipu 3:10, 11; Usolwelo 20:6) Muze uhindukilo wacho muuhwa, mba muuputuka uhindukilo wa atu waze makatwama cheka hano hashi hanga akazuke mwono wa mutolo mu Paraisu. Kashika, chipwe ngwe tuli ni kutalatala cha kutwama hano hashi hanji mu malilu, twakulemesa chinji “uhindukilo utangu.” Uhindukilo uka wenawo? Ha mashimbu aka muulingiwa?
