(Yoh. 4:7) Yakuwala ya mundu mpaka yilosye chilambo chakusatyochela, masengo gakusakamula soni timu jakusajinonyela. M’bale jwine jwatite, “Natandite kuŵechetana ni jwamlume jwine jwa yaka 19 juŵawete malaja gejambule jwakwimba jwine jwakumanyika mnope. Kaneko namwusisye jwalakwe yakwamba chiwulili chachaliji pamalajago. Jwalakwe jwasalile chachikusamtendekasya kumnonyela jwakwimbaju.

Akusosekwa kusagula Malemba gachakaŵalanje, mafidiyo gachakalosye soni yisyasyo yachakakamulichisye masengo pakulondesya usyesyene wa m’Baibulo. Aliwusyeje kuti, ‘Ana chichi champaka chimsangalasye soni kumyika pamtima munduju?’ (Mis. 16:23) Jwamkongwe jwine jwa ku Albania jwaŵalijiganyaga ni mpayiniya jwine, jwaŵechete mwakulimba mtima kuti, “Une nganimba ngulupilile yakuti ŵawe chachijimuka.” Mpayiniyajo nganamkanganichisya jwamkongwejo kuti akamulane nayo yaŵamjiganyagayo ndaŵi jijojo. Jwalakwe jwatite, “Nayiweni kuti munduju akusosekwa kummanyilila kaje Mlungu juŵasasile yakwimuka ku ŵawe, kaneko ni namkamuchisyeje kuti akulupilile yakuti ŵawe chachijimuka.” Kutandila pandaŵi jelejo, mpayiniyaju ŵatandite kugombelechesya ya chinonyelo chakwete Yehofa, lunda soni machili gakwe.

Jwatendaga yeleyi atamose kuti mumsindawo mwagumbele ni milungu jakusepa, ndamo syachikululu soni ŵandu ŵakukulupilila mnope lunda lwa ŵandu. Paulo jwaŵele Mklistu atamose kuti pandanda jwaliji ‘jwachipongwe, jwakulagasya soni jwakunyosya.’ (1 Tim. 1:13) Mpela mwaŵatendele Yesu kuti ŵam’weni Paulo kuti mpaka aŵe jwakulijiganya jwakwe, nombe Paulo jwawonaga ŵandu ŵa ku Atene kuti mpaka aŵe ŵakulijiganya ŵa Yesu. Nganisyo syaŵakwete Paulosi syakwanilichikwe ligongo ŵandu ŵane ŵaŵele ŵakulijiganya ŵa Yesu.—Mase. 9:13-15; 17:34.

¹⁸ Ana Yesu pajwasalaga kuti mbeju sikomele mwamti pakusosekwa kugowola, tujile kuti jwakwete nganisyo syakuti ŵandu ŵajinji chachimkuyaga jwalakwe? Iyayi. Malemba galiji gali gasasile kala kuti ŵandu ŵamnono ni ŵachachimkulupilila jwalakwe. (Yoh. 12:37, 38) Yesu jwamanyililaga yayili mumtima mwa mundu. (Mat. 9:4) Atamose kuti jwalakwe ŵatendaga mnope chidwi ni ŵandu ŵampaka akulupilile yajwajiganyaga, nambope jwalakwe jwalalichilaga kwa jwalijose mwakulimbichila. Pakuti nganituŵa tumanyilile yamumtima mwa mundu, ngatukusosekwa kumjelusya mundu kapena dela jatukusalalichila kuti jili jakusawusya.

Yichikamuchisyasoni kuti twawoneje ŵandu ŵa mudela jetu kuti mpaka aŵe abale ni alongo, mmalo mwakwawona mwangaŵajilwa.
