Akumele sigcine ngokuzikhandla ukuba sibe abantu abavuthiwe, kodwa kumele sihlale singabantu abavuthiwe. Lokhu kudinga ukuba sigweme ukuzethemba ngokweqile. (1 Kor. 10:12) Kufanele ‘siqhubeke sizihlola’ ukuze siqiniseke ukuthi siyaqhubeka sithuthuka. Encwadini yakhe ayibhalela abaseKolose, umphostoli uPawulu uphinde agcizelele isidingo sokuba siqhubeke singabantu abavuthiwe. Nakuba base bengamaKristu akhule ngokugcwele, uPawulu wabaxwayisa ukuba bangabanjwa ugibe lokucabanga kwezwe. (Kol. 2:​6-10) U-Ephafra, owayebazi kahle labo abasebandleni, wayethandaza njalo ethandazela ukuthi kwangathi ‘ekugcineni bangama baphelele,’ noma bavuthwe. (Kol. 4:12) Liyini iphuzu? Bobabili uPawulu no-Ephafra babeqonda ukuthi ukuhlala uvuthiwe kudinga ukuzikhandla nosizo lukaNkulunkulu. Babefuna ukuba abaseKolose baqhubeke bevuthiwe noma bengamaKristu akhule ngokugcwele naphezu kwanoma yiziphi izinkinga ababebhekene nazo. w24.04 6-7 ¶16-17

Lapho sesikufundile ukwesaba uJehova ngendlela efanele, simthanda kakhulu kangangokuba asisoze senza noma yini engamjabulisi. Kuyasijabulisa ukufunda ukuhlukanisa phakathi kokulungile nokungalungile, nomehluko phakathi kweqiniso namanga ukuze samukeleke kuJehova. (IzAga 2:​3-6; Heb. 5:14) Uma besingase sesabe abantu kunoNkulunkulu, singachezukiswa eqinisweni. Cabanga ngesibonelo sezinhloli ezingu-12 ezahamba zayohlola izwe uJehova ayethembise ukulinika ama-Israyeli. Eziyishumi zalezo zinhloli, indlela ezazesaba ngayo amaKhanani yayedlula indlela ezazithanda ngayo uNkulunkulu. Zatshela amanye ama-Israyeli: “Asikwazi ukukhuphuka siyomelana nalabo bantu ngoba banamandla kunathi.” (Num. 13:​27-31) Ngokombono womuntu, amaKhanani ayenamandla kunama-Israyeli. Lokho kona kwakuyiqiniso. Kodwa ukuthi ama-Israyeli ayengeke akwazi ukunqoba izitha zawo kwakusho ukuthi ayengamcabangi nokumcabanga uJehova. w24.07 9 ¶5-6

Sinaso yini isizathu esizwakalayo sokuqiniseka ukuthi lapho uJehova ahlulela abantu uhlale enza okulungile? Yebo! Njengoba u-Abrahama ayeqonda kahle, uJehova akanaphutha, unakho konke ukuhlakanipha, ‘ungumaHluleli womhlaba wonke’ onesihe. Uqeqeshe iNdodana yakhe wayinika wonke umsebenzi wokwahlulela. (Joh. 5:22) UJehova neNdodana yakhe bakwazi ukubona lokho okusenhliziyweni yomuntu ngamunye. (Math. 9:4) Ngaso sonke isikhathi, bayokwenza “okulungile”! Masizimisele ukwethemba uJehova nazo zonke izinqumo zakhe. Siyazi ukuthi asinalo igunya lokwahlulela—kodwa yena unalo! (Isaya 55:​8, 9) Ngakho sishiyela konke ukwahlulela kuye neNdodana yakhe, iNkosi ebulingisa ngokuphelele ubulungisa nesihe sikaYise.—Isaya 11:​3, 4. w24.05 7 ¶18-19
