Pakumala kuapasa uphungu wakufunika kakamwe, Yezu na apostolo ace akhali dzololo toera kubuluka mu sala yapadzulu mudadyera iwo Paskwa. Mbadzati kubuluka, iye aapanga: “Ine ndakupangani pinthu pyenepi toera mukhonde kuluza cikhulupiro canu.” Thangwi yanji cenjezo ineyi ikhali yakufunika? Iye aapanga: “Anthu anadzakuthamangisani m’masinagoga. Mwandimomwene, unadzafika ndzidzi wakuti munthu anakuphani ananyerezera kuti akutumikira Mulungu.”—Juwau 16:1, 2.
Panango mafala anewa acitisa apostolo kukhala akudzudzumika. Ngakhale Yezu akhadaapanga kuti iwo mbadaidiwa na dziko, iye nee akhadaapangiratu kuti mbadaphiwa. Thangwi yanji? Yezu alonga: “Pakutoma ine nee ndakupangani pinthu pyenepi, thangwi ndikhali pabodzi na imwe.” (Juwau 16:4) Natenepa iye aacenjeza mbadzati kuenda kudzulu. Panango pyenepi mbapidaaphedza toera akhonde kubwerera nduli.
Yezu apitiriza kulonga: “Ine ndiri kuenda kuna Ule adandituma; ngakhale tenepo, nee m’bodzi wa imwe anandibvundza kuti: ‘Mbuya, muli kuenda kupi?’” Ntsiku ineyi namaulo anyakupfundza akhadabvundza kale Yezu kuti akhafuna kuenda kupi. (Juwau 13:36; 14:5; 16:5) Natenepa iwo akhagopa thangwi Yezu aapanga kuti iwo mbadatcingwa. Kutsukwala kwaacimwanisa kubvundza thangwi ya mbiri ikhafuna khala na Yezu, pontho kuti pyenepi mbapidabvekanji kuna alambiri andimomwene. Yezu alonga: “Nakuti cincino ndakupangani pinthu pyenepi, mitima yanu yadzala na kutsukwala.”—Juwau 16:6.
Buluka penepo, Yezu alonga: “Mphyadidi kakamwe kwa imwe kuti ine ndiende. Thangwi ndingakhonda kuenda, nzimu wakucena nee unabwera toera kukuphedzani; mbwenye ndingaenda, ine ndinautumiza kuna imwe.” (Juwau 16:7) Toera anyakupfundza atambire nzimu wakucena, pakutoma Yezu akhafunika kufa, kulamuswa na kuenda kudzulu. Kubulukira kudzulu iye mbadatumiza nzimu wakucena kuna anthu ace onsene pa dziko yapantsi.
Nzimu wakucena “ungafika, unadzapangiza pakweca madawo a dziko, cilungamo na kutonga kwa Mulungu.” (Juwau 16:8) Nzimu wakucena mbudapangiza pakweca kuti Yezu ndi Mwana wa Mulungu, pontho kuti anthu a dziko nee an’khulupira. Kuenda kwace kudzulu, mbukudapangiza pakweca kuti Yezu ndi wakulungama, pontho Sathani wakuti ndi “ntongi wa dziko ino” athema kutcunyuswa.—Juwau 16:11.
Yezu alonga: “Ndiciri na pinthu pizinji toera kukupangani, mbwenye cincino nee munakwanisa kupibvesesa.” Pakuatumizira nzimu wakucena, iwo mbudaatsogolera toera abvesese mwadidi “undimomwene,” pontho mbudaaphedza kuphatisira undimomwene unoyu mu umaso wawo.—Juwau 16:12, 13.
Apostolo adzudzumika pidalonga Yezu kuti: “Thimize pang’ono imwe nkhabe kudzandionabve, mbwenye thimize pang’ono imwe munadzandiona.” Iwo abvundzana unango na ndzace kuti pyenepi pisabvekanji. Yezu akhadziwa kuti iwo akhafuna kucita mbvundzo thangwi ya pyenepi, natenepa iye aapanga: ‘Ine ndinakupangani na cinyindiro consene kuti imwe munadzalira mbamubulira, mbwenye dziko inadzatsandzaya; imwe munadzatsukwala, mbwenye kutsukwala kwanu kunadzakhala kutsandzaya.’ (Juwau 16:16, 20) Pidaphiwa Yezu mangwana mwace namaulo, atsogoleri auphemberi atsandzaya, mbwenye anyakupfundza a Yezu atsukwala. Mbwenye mu ndzidzi udalamuswa Yezu muli akufa kutsukwala kwawo kwadzakhala kutsandzaya. Pontho kutsandzaya kwawo kwapitiriza mpaka mu ndzidzi udatambira iwo nzimu wakucena wa Mulungu.
Yezu alandanisa pikhafuna kucitikira apostolo ace na pinacitikira nkazi wakuti ali cifupi na kubala. Iye alonga: “Nkazi angafuna kubala asabva kupha, thangwi ndzidzi wace wakubala wafika; mbwenye angamala kubala mwana, iye asaduwala nyatwa yonsene idaona iye, thangwi ya kukomerwa na mwana adabalwa pa dziko.” Yezu awangisa apostolo ace na mafala awa: ‘Cincino imwembo musatsukwala; mbwenye mungadzandiona pontho, imwe munadzatsandzaya na ntima onsene, pontho nkhabe anafuna kukucitisani kuti mukhonde kutsandzaya.’—Juwau 16:21, 22.
Mpaka mu ndzidzi unoyu, apostolo nee akhadaphemba cinthu mu dzina ya Yezu. Natenepa iye alonga: “Pa ntsiku ineyi, imwe munadzaphemba Baba mu dzina yanga.” Thangwi yanji iwo akhafunika kucita pyenepi? Pyenepi nee pisabveka kuti Baba nee akhafuna kutawira. Yezu alonga: “Baba asakufunani, thangwi imwe mwandifuna . . . ninga munthu adatumwa na Mulungu.”—Juwau 16:26, 27.
Mafala akuwangisa adalonga Yezu kuna apostolo ace aapasa cipapo cakulonga kuti: “Na thangwi ineyi ife tisakhulupira kuti imwe mwabuluka kuna Mulungu.” Mwakukhonda dembuka, cinyindiro cikhali na iwo mbacidayeserwa. Yezu alonga pikhafuna kucitika: “Onani, unadzafika ndzidzi, mwandimomwene wafika, wakuti munadzabalaliswa, m’bodzi na m’bodzi anadzabwerera kunyumba kwace, mbamundisiya ndekha.” Ngakhale tenepo, iye aapasa cinyindiro: “Ine ndalonga pinthu pyenepi toera kubulukira mwa ine, imwe mukhale na ntendere. Mu dziko imwe munadzaona nyatwa, mbwenye khalani na cipapo! Ine ndakunda dziko.” (Juwau 16:30-33) Pyenepi nee pikhabveka kuti Yezu mbadaasiya okha. Iye akhali na cinyindiro kuti iwo mbadakundambo dziko ninga pidacita iye. Toera kukunda dziko, iwo akhafunika kucita cifuniro ca Mulungu na kupitiriza kukhala akukhulupirika ngakhale athimbane na mayesero a Sathani pabodzi na anthu a dziko yace.
