17. (a) Yezu yari yavuze iki muri wa mugani wiwe w’ingano n’icatsi kibi? (b) Ni igiki cabaye mu 1918, kandi hiyamirijwe bande maze hagenwa nde?

¹⁷ Muri wa mugani wa Yezu w’ingano n’icatsi kibi, yaravuze ko hobayeho ikiringo c’umwiza aho abiyita abakirisu bobaye bica bagakiza. Ariko rero, muri ivyo binjana vyose vy’ubuhuni, hobayeho abakirisu b’ukuri barobanuwe bogereranywa n’ingano. (Matayo 13:24-29, 36-43) Ku bw’ivyo, igihe umusi w’Umukama watangura muri Gitugutu 1914, kw’isi hari hakiriho abakirisu b’ukuri. (Ivyahishuwe 1:10) Biboneka ko Yehova yaje guca urubanza mu rusengero rwiwe rwo mu buryo bw’impwemu mu 1918 haciye imyaka itatu n’igice inyuma y’aho, ari kumwe na Yezu “intumwa [yiwe] y’isezerano.” (Malaki 3:1; Matayo 13:47-50) Hari hageze ko uwo Databuja yiyamiriza abakirisu b’ikinyoma maze akagena ‘umushumba w’umwizigirwa kandi w’ubwenge ku vyo atunze vyose.’—Matayo 7:22, 23; 24:45-47.

18. Ni “isaha” iyihe yashitse mu 1914, kandi hari hageze ko wa mushumba akora iki?

¹⁸ Hari hageze kandi ko uwo mushumba yitwararika bidasanzwe ivyanditswe mu butumwa Yezu yarungikiye ya mashengero indwi. Nk’akarorero, Yezu aravuga ko agira aze gucira urubanza amashengero, urwo rubanza rukaba rwatanguye mu 1918. (Ivyahishuwe 2:5, 16, 22, 23; 3:3) Aravuga ko azokingira ishengero ry’i Filadelufiya “isaha y’ukugeragezwa, iyibwirizwa kuza kw’isi yose.” (Ivyahishuwe 3:10, 11) Iyo “saha y’ukugeragezwa” yashitse igihe umusi w’Umukama watangura mu 1914, inyuma y’aho abakirisu bakaba barageragejwe kugira biboneke ko ari intahemuka ku Bwami bw’Imana bwari bwashinzwe.—Gereranya na Matayo 24:3, 9-13.

Igihe co gusuzumwa no gucirwa urubanza

Nko muri Gitugutu 29 G.C., Yezu yarabatijwe yongera ararobanurwa ku Ruzi Yorodani kugira azobe Umwami. Haciye imyaka itatu n’igice, ni ukuvuga mu 33 G.C., yaraje ku rusengero i Yeruzalemu ahindira hanze abariko barugira isenga ry’abambuzi. Biboneka ko ico kiringo gifitaniye isano n’imyaka itatu n’igice yahaciye kuva Yezu yimitswe mw’ijuru muri Gitugutu 1914 gushika aje gusuzuma abavuga ko ari abakirisu igihe urubanza rwatangurira ku nzu y’Imana. (Matayo 21:12, 13; 1 Petero 4:17) Mu ntango z’umwaka wa 1918, igikorwa c’Ubwami abasavyi ba Yehova bakora cararwanijwe cane. Cari igihe co gusuzumwa kw’isi yose, kandi abanyabwoba baragosowe nk’umuguruka. Muri Rusama 1918, abakuru b’idini ry’abiyita abakirisu baratumye abahagarikiye Ishirahamwe Watch Tower bapfungwa, ariko haciye amezi icenda bararekuwe. Mu nyuma barambitswe izera. Kuva mu 1919, ishirahamwe ry’abasavyi b’Imana, iryari rimaze gusuzumwa no gutyororwa, ryaramamaje n’umwete mwinshi ko Ubwami bwa Yehova burongowe na Kristu Yezu ari co cizigiro c’umuryango w’abantu.—Malaki 3:1-3.

Igihe Yezu yatangura isuzuma ryiwe mu 1918, nta gukeka ko abakuru b’idini ry’abiyita abakirisu baciriwe rubi. Uretse ko bari barahamye abasavyi b’Imana, baragirwa kandi n’amaraso menshi kuko bashigikiye ibihugu vyatanye mu mitwe muri ya Ntambara ya mbere y’isi yose. (Ivyahishuwe 18:21, 24) Abo bakuru b’idini baciye bizigira wa Muhari w’amahanga washinzwe n’abantu. Mu 1919, abiyita abakirisu be n’inganji y’isi yose y’idini ry’ikinyoma vyari vyamaze gutakaza burundu ubutoni ku Mana.
