Aŵele ali mkwiganya yawunami pakwamba ya Mlungu. Mpela jwamkongwe jwakulijesya, dini jaunami jiŵele jangakulupichika kwa Yehofa mwakukamuchisya maboma ga ŵandu.

Jemanjaji ‘chachimsumula jwalakwejo yakwe yosope ni kumleka ali makonope.’ (Ciw. 17:3, 16) Chonasiko chelechi chichasimonjesya ŵandu ŵali kumbali jakwe, ligongo jwamkongweju jwaŵele ali mkuŵecheta mwakupoka kuti, “Une apano ndili mwenye, nganimba jwamkongwe jwamasije, soni une ngakomboleka kulila.”—Ciw. 18:7, 8, NW.

(Ciw. 16:13, 14) Mkamulano wa maboma welewu, ukusakolanjidwa kuti “Gogi jwa chilambo cha Magogi.” Maboma pigachajimuchilaga ŵandu ŵa Mlungu, ngondo ja Alamagedo jichitanda papopo.—Ciw. 16:16.
14. Ana maboma gachikopochela yamtuli?
14 Gogi chachidalila “likuga lyangondo lya ŵandu” ŵali asilikali ŵakwe. (2 Mbi. 32:8) M’weji tuchidalila Yehofa Mlungu jwetu yayichiwoneka kwa ŵandu mpela nganitukola jwakutukamuchisya.

Jemanjaji chachajimuchila ŵandu ŵa Yehofa “mpela mbungo jamachili jakonanga chilambo chapasi.” (Esek. 38:16) Nambo maboma gachikopochela kuti pangali mpata wakutila. Mpela muyaŵelele ni Falao pa Nyasa Jechejewu, Gogi chachiyiwona kuti akulimbana ni Yehofa.—Eks. 14:1-4; Esek. 38:3, 4, 18, 21-23.

Yesu chachimponya jwalakwe pampepe ni yiŵanda yakwe kwisimbo kwachachimwugalila kwa yaka 1,000.—Ciw. 20:1-3.

Tukusalosyasoni kuti tukusammanyilila patukumnonyela, kumpikanila, soni kumlambila jwalakwe jika.
