Ngozi yapamsewu imene anachititsa dalaivala woledzera inamulemalitsa ndipo inangowonjezera mavuto ake. Mboni za Yehova zitafika panyumba yake, Harold anazilamula kuti zisamabwerenso. Koma tsiku lina, wa Mboni wina dzina lake Bill ananyamuka kuti akakumane ndi munthu wachidwi amene ankakhala khomo lachitatu kuchokera pa khomo la Harold. Mwangozi, Bill anagogoda pakhomo la Harold. Pamene Harold, amene ankayendera ndodo ziŵiri, anatsegula chitseko, Bill mofulumira anapepesa, n’kum’fotokozera kuti anali ndi cholinga chogogoda khomo lina la pafupi naye.

Kutsutsana, kukangana, kulimbana ndilo khalidwe la anthu amene amakhala ndi moyo wakudziko. Nthaŵi zina, makhalidwe akudziko ameneŵa amalowa mu mpingo wachikristu ndipo amachititsa kulimbana ndi kukangana. Abale amaudindo amamva chisoni akamathetsa nkhani zimenezi. Komabe, kukonda Yehova ndiponso abale awo kumawalimbikitsa kuthandiza ochimwawo kuti alape ndi kubwerera.—Agalatiya 5:25, 26.
13, 14. Kodi pangakhale zotsatira zotani ngati “[ti]langiza iwo akutsutsana mofatsa”?
13 M’zaka 100 zoyambirira za nyengo yathu ino, Paulo ndi mnzake Timoteo anakumana ndi mavuto ambiri kuchokera kwa ena mu mpingo. Paulo analangiza Timoteo kuti adziteteze kwa abale amene ankafanana ndi zotengera “zopanda ulemu.” Paulo anati: “Kapolo wa Ambuye sayenera kuchita ndewu, komatu akhale woyenera, waulere pa onse, wodziŵa kuphunzitsa, woleza, wolangiza iwo akutsutsana mofatsa.” Tikakhalabe ofatsa ngakhale pamene ena akutiputa, zimachititsa amene tikusiyana nawo maganizo kuti aganizenso mofatsa. Pomalizira pake, mwina Yehova ‘angawapatse iwo chitembenuziro, kukazindikira choonadi’ monga momwe Paulo akupitirizira kulemba. (2 Timoteo 2:20, 21, 24, 25) Onani kuti Paulo akusonyeza kuti kudekha ndi kudziletsa zimayenderana ndi kufatsa.
14 Zimene Paulo ankachita zinali zogwirizana ndi zimene ankalalikira. Pochita zinthu ndi “atumwi oposatu” mu mpingo wa ku Korinto, analimbikitsa abale kuti: “Koma ine ndekha Paulo, ndidandaulira inu mwa kufatsa ndi ulere wa Kristu, ine amene pamaso panu ndikhala wodzichepetsa pakati pa inu, koma pokhala kwina ine ndilimbika mtima kwa inu.” (2 Akorinto 10:1; 11:5) Paulo anatsanziradi Kristu. Onani kuti anadandaulira abale ameneŵa “mwa kufatsa” kwa Kristu. Motero anapeŵa khalidwe lodzitukumula ndi lolamula. Mawu ake olimbikitsa mosakayikira anagwira mtima amene anali ndi mitima yomvera mu mpingo. Anathandiza kulimbikitsa maubwenzi ndi kukhazikitsa mtendere ndiponso mgwirizano mu mpingo. Kodi limeneli si khalidwe limene tonsefe tingayesetse kutengera? Akulu makamaka ayenera kutengera chitsanzo cha Kristu ndi Paulo.
15. N’chifukwa chiyani kufatsa kuli kofunika popereka uphungu?
15 Udindo wothandiza ena sikuti umangokhalapo pamene mtendere ndi mgwirizano mu mpingo ukusokonezeka. Abale amafunika kuwatsogolera mwachikondi kusagwirizana kusanayambe. Paulo analimbikitsa kuti: “Abale, ngatinso munthu agwidwa nako kulakwa kwakuti, inu auzimu, mubweze wotereyo.” Koma kodi tim’bweze motani? “Mu mzimu wa chifatso; ndi kudzipenyerera wekha, ungayesedwe nawenso.” (Agalatiya 6:1) Kukhalabe ndi “mzimu wa chifatso” si chinthu chapafupi nthaŵi zonse, makamaka chifukwa chakuti Akristu onse, kuphatikizapo akulu, amavutika ndi zizolowezi zobwera chifukwa cha uchimo. Ngakhale zili choncho, kudzichepetsa kwa wopereka uphungu n’kumene kudzathandiza wochimwa kuti asakumve kuwawa kusinthako.
16, 17. Kodi n’chiyani chimene chingathandize munthu amene akulimbalimba pamene tikupereka uphungu?
16 Liwu la Chigiriki limene analimasulira kuti “mubweze” lingatanthauzenso kubwezeretsa mafupa osweka m’chimake, zimene ndi zopweteka kwambiri. Dokotala wabwino amene akubwezeretsa fupa losweka m’chimake amalankhula molimbikitsa ndi mokoma mtima za ubwino wochita zimenezi. Kudekha kwake kumalimbikitsa. Kunena mawu ochepa asanayambe ntchito yake kumachepetsa ululu wosanenekawo. Mofananamo, kubweza kwauzimu kungakhale kopweteka. Koma kufatsa kungathandize wochimwa kulandira uphunguwo mosavuta, n’kukhazikitsa ubale wabwino, komanso kum’thandiza kuti asinthe njira yake. Ngakhale kuti poyamba angakhale akukana uphungu, kufatsa kwa amene akumuthandiza kungathetse kulimbalimba kwa wochimwa kuti atsatire malangizo ogwira mtima a m’Malemba.—Miyambo 25:15.
17 Pamene tikupatsa ena uphungu kuti awongolere, pali vuto lakuti angaone ngati tikuwaimba mlandu. Wolemba wina anafotokoza zimenezi motere: “Tikamadzudzula ena m’pamene timafunika kufatsa kwambiri chifukwa chakuti pa nthaŵi imeneyi zimakhala zosavuta kulankhula mwaukali.” Kukulitsa kufatsa, kumene kumayambira pa kudzichepetsa, kungathandize mlangizi wachikristu kupeŵa msampha umenewu.

18 Mbali imodzi imene anthu ambiri amavutika kuti aonetse kufatsa ndi pamene akuchita zinthu ndi akuluakulu a boma. N’zoona kuti mmene anthu ena amaudindo amachitira zinthu, amasonyeza nkhanza ndiponso kusaganizira ena. (Mlaliki 4:1; 8:9) Komabe, kukonda kwathu Yehova kungatithandize kuzindikira ulamuliro wake waukulu ndi kupereka kwa akuluakulu a boma ulemu wowayenera. (Aroma 13:1, 4; 1 Timoteo 2:1, 2) Ngakhale pamene anthu amene ali pa maudindo aakulu akulepheretsa kulambira kwathu Yehova poyera, mosangalala timapeza njira zimene tingaperekere nsembe zoyamika.—Ahebri 13:15.
19 Mulimonse mmene zingakhalire, sitikangana nawo koma timayesetsa kukhala omvetsa zinthu, mosanyalanyaza mfundo zolungama. Mwanjira imeneyi, abale anthu akutha kuchita utumiki wawo m’maiko 234 pa dziko lonse. Timamvera uphungu wa Paulo wakuti “agonje kwa akulu, ndi aulamuliro, akhale omvera, okonzeka pa ntchito iliyonse yabwino; asachitire mwano munthu aliyense, asakhale andewu, akhale aulere, naonetsere chifatso chonse pa anthu onse.”—Tito 3:1, 2.
20. Kodi pali madalitso otani kwa amene akuonetsa kufatsa?
20 Onse amene amaonetsa kufatsa adzasangalala ndi madalitso ochuluka. Yesu anati: “Odala ali akufatsa; chifukwa adzalandira dziko lapansi.” (Mateyu 5:5) Kwa abale a Kristu odzozedwa, kukhalabe wofatsa kumawabweretsera chisangalalo ndi mwayi wodzalamulira nawo mu Ufumu wa dziko lonse lapansi. Ndipo a “khamu lalikulu” la “nkhosa zina,” akupitirizabe kuonetsa kufatsa ndipo akuyembekezera moyo m’dziko lapansi la Paradaiso. (Chivumbulutso 7:9; Yohane 10:16; Salmo 37:11) Tikuyembekezera zinthu zosangalatsa kwambiri kutsogoloku! Choncho, tiyeni tisanyalanyaze zimene Paulo anakumbutsa Akristu a ku Efeso kuti: ‘Ndikudandaulirani inu tsono, ine wandende mwa Ambuye, muyende koyenera maitanidwe amene munaitanidwa nawo, ndi kuonetsera kudzichepetsa konse, ndi chifatso.’—Aefeso 4:1, 2.
