“Ol brata bilong mi, sapos ol kain kain traim i kamap long yupela, orait yupela i ken ting olsem, em i samting bilong amamas tasol. Yupela i save, samting i kamap na i traim bilip bilong yupela, em i save kamapim pasin bilong sanap strong na karim hevi.”—JEMS 1:2, 3.
1. Bilong wanem ol Kristen i mas ting olsem ol samting bai traim bilip bilong ol?
OL Kristen tru i no gat laik long karim hevi, na ol i no amamas long kisim pen o kisim hevi long ol man i daunim ol. Tasol ol i save tingim tok i stap antap, em Jems, brata bilong Jisas i bin raitim. Krais i kamapim klia long ol disaipel bilong em olsem ol man bai mekim nogut long ol na givim hevi long ol, long wanem, ol i bihainim ol lo bilong God. (Matyu 10:34; 24:9-13; Jon 16:33) Tasol ol kain traim olsem inap givim amamas long man. Olsem wanem mipela inap tok olsem?
2. (a) Olsem wanem ol samting i traim bilip bilong yumi i ken kamapim amamas? (b) Olsem wanem pasin bilong sanap strong na karim hevi i ken kamap strong tru long yumi?
2 Wanpela bikpela as na yumi kisim amamas taim ol samting i traim bilip bilong yumi i olsem: Em inap kamapim gutpela kaikai. Olsem Jems i tok, sapos yumi winim traim o hevi em bai “kamapim pasin bilong sanap strong.” Taim yumi wok long kisim dispela gutpela pasin Kristen em inap helpim yumi. Jems i tok: “Oltaim yupela i mas sanap strong na karim hevi, bai dispela pasin i ken kamap strong tru long yupela. Olsem na bai yupela i stap gut, na yupela bai i no sot long wanpela pasin bilong God. Nogat. Pasin bilong yupela bai i gutpela na i stret olgeta.” (Jems 1:4) Pasin bilong sanap strong na karim hevi i mas mekim wok bilong en. Wok bilong en i olsem: Em i mas mekim yumi i stap gut na yumi no sot long wanpela pasin bilong God, na em i mas helpim yumi long bihainim stretpela tingting na kamap olsem strongpela Kristen. Olsem na taim ol hevi i kamap long yumi na yumi no mekim wanpela samting i no stret wantaim tok bilong Baibel bilong pinisim kwik ol dispela hevi, bai yumi kisim bilip i winim planti traim na i kamap strong tru. Sapos yumi no bin kamapim tumas pasin isi, o pasin bilong mekim gut long man, o gutpela pasin, o pasin sori, taim yumi mekim wanpela samting o yumi wok wantaim ol man, pasin bilong sanap strong na karim hevi bai helpim yumi long kamapim moa yet ol dispela gutpela pasin Kristen. Em i olsem: Ol traim i helpim yumi long kamapim pasin bilong sanap strong; na pasin bilong sanap strong i kamapim ol gutpela pasin Kristen; na ol dispela pasin i kamapim amamas.—1 Pita 4:14; 2 Pita 1:5-8.
3 Aposel Pita tu i kamapim klia as na yumi no ken pret na surik bek taim ol samting i traim bilip bilong yumi. Em i tok: “Yupela i save tingting long ol dispela samting God i laik mekim na yupela i save amamas. Tasol nau long liklik taim tasol, ating kain kain traim bai i kamap na givim pen long yupela. Long dispela pasin God i save traim bilip bilong yupela. Yumi save, gol em i gutpela samting tru, tasol ol i save kukim long paia, bilong traim na painimaut em i gol tru, o nogat. Bilip bilong yupela i winim gol na i gutpela moa, long wanem, gol em i samting bilong bagarap. Olsem na sapos ol kain kain traim i kamap long yupela, em i bilong traim bilip na soim olsem, yupela i bilip tru long Krais. Na long las de, taim Jisas Krais i kamap ples klia, em bai i amamas tru long yupela na givim biknem long yupela.” (1 Pita 1:6, 7) Dispela tok i strongim tru yumi long nau, long wanem, “bikpela hevi tru”—em taim bilong amamas na biknem na abrusim bagarap—em i stap klostu tru maski sampela i no ting olsem. Na em i klostu moa, winim long taim yumi kamap bilipman.—Matyu 24:21; Rom 13:11, 12.
4. Wanpela brata i tingting olsem wanem long ol traim i painim em na ol narapela Kristen God i bin makim?
4 Long stori i kamap paslain long dispela, yumi toktok long ol traim i painim lain remnan kirap long yia 1914. Olsem wanem? Ol dispela traim i olsem as na lain remnan i ken amamas? A. H. Macmillan i bin tok: “Mi lukim planti bikpela traim i painim oganaisesen na planti samting i traim bilip bilong ol man i stap insait long en. Spirit bilong God i helpim oganaisesen na em i no bagarap, em i wok long go bikpela. Mi lukim olsem man i bihainim gutpela tingting sapos em i wetim Jehova long stretim tingting bilong yumi long sampela tok bilong Baibel, na em i no kros long ol nupela tingting. . . . Maski sampela taim yumi mas senisim sampela tingting bilong yumi, dispela i no senisim gutpela ofa bilong Krais bilong baim bek ol man na promis bilong God long givim laip oltaim. Olsem na i no gat as na bilip bilong yumi i no strong moa, long wanem, ol samting yumi wetim i no kamap o tingting long sampela samting i senis.”—Wastaua (tok Inglis), Ogas 15, 1966, pes 504.
5. (a) Wanem ol gutpela samting i kamap long ol traim i painim lain remnan? (b) Bilong wanem yumi laik save long dispela samting long nau?
5 Ol Kristen God i bin makim long spirit holi, em ol i winim dispela taim bilong ol traim i kirap long 1914 na i go inap long 1919, ol i kamap fri long strong bilong dispela graun na ol pasin bilong lotu bilong Babilon. Lain remnan i bin kamap klin, na ol i amamas long givim maus bilong ol olsem ofa bilong litimapim nem bilong God, na ol i save olsem God i orait long ol. (Aisaia 52:11; 2 Korin 6:14-18) Kot i kirap pastaim long lain bilong God, tasol kot i no ken pinis insait long wanpela hap taim. God i wok yet long traim na skelim lain bilong em. Ol manmeri i bung insait long bikpela lain na ol i gat laik long abrusim bagarap long “bikpela hevi” klostu nau bai kamap, ol samting i traim bilip bilong ol tu. (KTH 7:9, 14) Ol samting i bin traim bilip bilong lain remnan, kain samting olsem i traim bilip bilong bikpela lain tu.
Olsem Wanem Ol Samting Inap Traim Yu?
6. Wanem wanpela bikpela traim i painim planti Kristen?
6 Planti Kristen i tingting long olsem wanem ol i ken sanap strong long taim ol traim i painim ol taim ol man i biruaim ol. Ol i tingim dispela tok: “Ol [hetman Juda] i singautim ol aposel i kam, na ol i tokim ol man long wipim ol. Na ol i tambuim ol long ol i no ken autim tok moa long nem bilong Jisas. Na ol i lusim ol i go. Olsem na ol aposel i lusim kaunsil na i go ausait. Na ol i amamas long God i ting ol inap long kisim sem long nem bilong Jisas.” (Aposel 5:40, 41) Ol samting i painim lain bilong God long nau, olsem long taim bilong ol bikpela pait bilong olgeta hap, i kamapim ples klia olsem ol birua i bin paitim nogut tru planti Witnes Bilong Jehova, na ol i bin mekim ol narapela pasin nogut tru long ol.
7. Sampela Kristen long nau i bin mekim wanem bilong kamapim bilip bilong ol?
7 Ol manmeri bilong dispela graun i mekim pasin birua long lain remnan na bikpela lain “arapela sipsip”—long ai bilong ol tupela lain Kristen i no narapela narapela. (Jon 10:16) Kirap long bipo na i kam inap nau, ol bikpela hevi i traim bilip bilong ol manmeri bilong tupela lain wantaim, olsem ol i kalabusim ol na ol i kilim i dai sampela, long wanem, ol i laikim tru God na ol i bilip long em. Tupela lain wantaim i mas kisim spirit bilong God, maski ol i gat tingting long i go long heven o tingting long i stap oltaim long graun. (Skelim wantaim Wastaua, Jun 15, 1996, pes 31.) Kirap long 1933 i go inap 1945 samting long taim ol Natsi i bosim Jemani, planti wokman bilong Jehova, na sampela pikinini tu, ol i kamapim strongpela bilip tru, na ol bikpela traim i bin painim planti bilong ol. Long nau, ol man i bin mekim pasin birua long lain bilong Jehova long Barundi, Eritrea, Itiopia, Malawi, Mosambik, Ruanda, Saier, na Singapo. Na ol traim olsem i wok long painim yet planti Kristen.
8. Olsem wanem tok bilong wanpela brata long Afrika i kamapim olsem sampela narapela samting moa inap traim bilip bilong yumi, na i no pasin birua tasol?
8 Tasol olsem yumi stori pinis, sampela samting i traim bilip bilong yumi i no stap ples klia—em i hatwok long yumi luksave long en. Bai yu mekim wanem sapos wanpela hevi olsem i painim yu: Wanpela brata long Angola i gat 10-pela pikinini na em i bin stap long wanpela kongrigesen i stap longwe long ol brata i gat wok bilong helpim kongrigesen na inap sampela taim em i no inap toktok wantaim ol. Bihain sampela brata inap go lukim dispela kongrigesen. Ol i askim em olsem wanem em inap givim kaikai long famili bilong em. I hatwok long em long bekim dispela askim, na em i mekim liklik tok tasol olsem em i hatwok long mekim olsem. Olsem wanem? Em inap givim kaikai long ol pikinini bilong em wanpela taim long wanpela de? Em i bekim tok: “Mi no inap. Tasol mipela i lain pinis long stap laip long liklik samting mipela i holim.” Nau em i tokaut strong olsem: “Tasol yumi save dispela samting bai kamap long taim bilong las de, a?” Dispela kain bilip em i narapela kain, tasol planti gutpela Kristen i gat kain bilip olsem. Ol i bilip tru olsem ol tok promis bilong Kingdom bai kamap tru.
9 Ol lo bilong God em oganaisesen bilong em long graun i bihainim long mekim wok bilong em, dispela tu i save traim bikpela lain. Ol dispela lo bilong God na oganaisesen bilong em i bosim lain Kristen i stap long olgeta hap. Olsem na ol i mas bilip long Jisas olsem em i Gopas bilong ol, na dispela man God i makim bilong stap Het bilong kongrigesen Kristen. (1 Korin 11:3) Yumi kamapim long ples klia olsem yumi amamas long stap daun long em na Papa bilong em taim yumi bilip long ol man God i makim na ol tok ol i pasim bilong stiaim wok bilong yumi bilong mekim laik bilong Jehova long pasin wanbel. Na long olgeta kongrigesen i gat sampela man em God i makim bilong i go pas. Ol i no gutpela olgeta na yumi inap lukim ol pasin kranki bilong ol; tasol Baibel i kirapim yumi long tingim gut ol dispela man na daun long ol. (Hibru 13:7, 17) Olsem wanem? Sampela taim yu hatwok long mekim olsem? Dispela i traim bilip bilong yu? Sapos olsem, dispela samting bilong traim bilip bilong yu em i save helpim yu?
10. Wanem traim i painim yumi long ol samting bilong mekim wok autim tok?
10 Yumi mas insait long wok bilong autim tok long olgeta taim, na dispela tu i traim bilip bilong yumi. Bilong yumi ken winim dispela traim yumi mas save, bilong insait tru long wok bilong autim tok yumi no ken mekim nating, o givim hap bel tasol. Tingim gutpela tok Jisas i mekim long rabismeri, em man bilong em i dai pinis, na em i givim olgeta samting em inap long givim. (Mak 12:41-44) Yumi inap askim yumi yet olsem: ‘Mi save mekim olgeta samting mi inap mekim long wok bilong autim tok?’ Yumi olgeta i mas i stap olsem Witnes Bilong Jehova inap 24 aua long olgeta de, na yumi mas redi long olgeta taim long larim lait bilong yumi i lait long ai bilong ol manmeri.—Matyu 5:16.
11. Sapos yumi kisim nupela save long sampela samting o ol i givim tok long yumi long stretim pasin bilong yumi, olsem wanem dispela inap traim bilip bilong yumi?
11 Lait bilong tok i tru bilong Baibel i wok long go bikpela, na gutpela wokboi i givim planti tok long yumi, na dispela tu inap traim bilip bilong yumi—yumi amamas long ol dispela tok o nogat. (Matyu 24:45) Sampela taim dispela i mekim na yumi mas senisim pasin bilong yumi, olsem ol man i mas mekim taim ol samting i kamap klia olsem ol man i smok ol i mas lusim dispela pasin sapos ol i laik stap yet insait long kongrigesen.a (2 Korin 7:1) O yumi mas stretim tingting bilong yumi long musik na sampela kain amamas, na dispela i traim bilip bilong yumi.b Bai yumi skelim skelim tok bilong ol, olsem i gat gutpela tingting long en o nogat? O bai yumi larim spirit bilong God i stiaim tingting bilong yumi na helpim yumi long kisim ol gutpela pasin Kristen?—Efesus 4:20-24; 5:3-5.
12. Bihain long wanpela man i kisim baptais, em i mas mekim wanem bilong strongim bilip bilong em?
12 Inap planti yia namba bilong bikpela lain i wok long go antap, na bihain long ol i kisim baptais ol i wok yet long strongim pasin pren bilong ol wantaim Jehova. Bilong mekim olsem, i no inap sapos ol i go tasol long wanpela kibung Kristen, o sampela miting long Haus Kingdom, o mekim wok autim tok long sampela taim, nogat. Olsem: Ating wanpela man inap lusim Bikpela Babilon long skin, em olgeta lotu giaman, tasol olsem wanem? Em i lusim tru Bikpela Babilon? Em i pas yet long ol samting i kamapim tingting na pasin bilong Bikpela Babilon—em dispela kain tingting na pasin i save kirapim man long sakim ol stretpela lo bilong God? Olsem wanem? Em i ting stretpela pasin bilong marit na stap gut long poroman marit em i no bikpela samting? Em i save tingim tumas em yet na mani kago, winim ol samting bilong spirit? Em i stap klin long ol pasin bilong dispela graun?—Jems 1:27.
Strongpela Bilip i Helpim Yumi
13, 14. Sampela i bin mekim wanem bihain long ol i kirap bihainim pasin tru bilong lotuim God?
13 Sapos yumi lusim tru Bikpela Babilon na ol pasin bilong dispela graun, yumi no ken lukluk i go bek long ol samting yumi lusim pinis. Olsem tok bilong Luk 9:62 i kamapim, sapos yumi lukluk i go bek long ol samting yumi lusim pinis, dispela inap mekim na yumi no inap i stap aninit long Kingdom bilong God. Jisas i tok: “Man i holim stia, tasol oltaim em i lukluk i go long baksait, em i no inap long mekim wok bilong kingdom bilong God.”
14 Tasol sampela i kamap Kristen long bipo ol i bin larim pasin bilong dispela graun i bosim ol. Ol i no bin sakim spirit bilong dispela graun. (2 Pita 2:20-22) Ol samting bilong dispela graun i bin pulim tingting na taim bilong ol, olsem na ol i no kamap strong. Tingting na bel bilong ol i no pas strong long Kingdom bilong God na stretpela pasin bilong em na ol i no painim dispela samting pastaim, nogat. Ol i bin lusim dispela rot bambai ol i ken wok long kisim mani kago samting. Sapos ol i no laik luksave olsem ol i sot long bilip na ol i no strong, na ol i no laik senisim pasin bilong ol na harim ol tok God i givim long yumi bilong stretim yumi, bai ol inap lus long stap pren bilong Jehova na oganaisesen bilong em.—KTH 3:15-19.
15. Yumi mas mekim wanem bambai God i ken orait yet long yumi?
15 Bilong God i ken orait long yumi na yumi inap abrusim bagarap long bikpela hevi tru klostu nau bai kamap, yumi mas i stap klin, na yumi mas pasim ol klos yumi bin ‘wasim long blut bilong Pikinini Sipsip.’ (KTH 7:9-14; 1 Korin 6:11) Sapos yumi no stap klin na stret long ai bilong God, em i no ken orait long ol wok holi yumi mekim. Yumi olgeta wan wan i mas save olsem bilip i bin winim planti traim em bai helpim yumi long sanap strong na yumi no mekim wanpela samting God i no laikim.
16. Long wanem rot ol tok giaman inap traim bilip bilong yumi?
16 Sampela taim, ol nius na ol gavman i kamapim sampela tok giaman long lain bilong God—ol i mekim sampela tok giaman long ol bilip Kristen na ol pasin bilong yumi. Yumi no ken kirap nogut long dispela, long wanem, Jisas i kamapim klia olsem ‘ol manmeri bilong dispela graun ol bai birua long yumi, long wanem, yumi no bilong dispela graun.’ (Jon 17:14) Olsem wanem? Ol dispela man em Satan i pasim tingting bilong ol bai yumi larim ol i pretim yumi na bagarapim bel bilong yumi na bai yumi sem long gutnius? Bai yumi larim ol tok giaman ol i kamapim long tok i tru i mekim na yumi no go long ol miting na mekim wok autim tok long olgeta taim? O bai yumi sanap strong na strongim bel na strong moa long autim tok i tru long Jehova na Kingdom bilong em?
17. Wanem samting inap kirapim yumi long wok yet long kamapim bilip?
17 Ol tok profet bilong Baibel i kamap tru pinis, ol i makim klia olsem yumi stap klostu long pinis bilong taim bilong las de. Baibel i as bilong bilip bilong yumi olsem nupela taim i gat stretpela pasin i stap long en bai kamap tru. Inap long dispela taim i kamap, yumi olgeta i mas kamapim strongpela bilip long Tok Bilong God na yumi no ken lusim wok bilong autim gutnius bilong Kingdom long olgeta hap bilong kamapim klia bilip bilong yumi. Tingim ol planti tausen nupela disaipel i kisim baptais long olgeta wik. Dispela em i gutpela as na yumi amamas long Jehova i wet yet na em i no kamapim kwik strafe bilong kot bilong em na rot i op bilong planti man moa ol i ken kisim laip, a? Yumi amamas long God i larim dispela wok bilong autim tok bilong Kingdom i stap yet bambai ol man inap kisim laip oltaim, a? Na yumi amamas long planti milion manmeri i bilip long tok i tru na ol i kamapim bilip bilong ol.
18. Yu gat wanem tingting long mekim wok bilong Jehova?
18 Yumi no save inap long wanem taim ol samting bai traim yet bilip bilong yumi. Tasol yumi save olsem: Jehova i makim pinis wanpela de bilong mekim kot long dispela heven na graun nogut bilong nau. Inap long dispela de i kamap, yumi mas tingting strong long bihainim strongpela bilip bilong Jisas, em dispela Man bilong inapim tru bilip bilong yumi. Na gutpela yumi bihainim pasin bilong lain remnan, em ol i wok long go lapun, na yumi bihainim pasin bilong sampela narapela brata i strongim bel na i wok wantaim yumi.
19. Yu ken save wanem samting bai winim dispela graun?
19 Yumi mas wok wantaim ensel i flai i go namel long skai, na tingting strong long autim gutnius bilong i stap oltaim i go long olgeta kantri, na lain, na tok ples, na manmeri. Ol i mas harim tok ensel i autim: “Taim i kamap pinis bilong God i skelim pasin bilong olgeta man long kot. Olsem na yupela i mas pret long em na litimapim nem bilong em.” (KTH 14:6, 7) Taim God i kamapim dispela kot, olsem wanem long bilip bilong yumi em i bin winim planti traim? Gutpela samting tru bai kamap, a? God bai kisim bek yumi long pasin nogut nau i stap long graun na bringim yumi i go long nupela taim em bai kamapim na stretpela pasin bai stap long en. Sapos yumi winim ol hevi i traim bilip bilong yumi, bai yumi inap mekim wankain tok olsem aposel Jon: “Yumi bilip long God, na long dispela pasin yumi save winim pait na daunim strong bilong dispela graun.”—1 Jon 5:4.
