Phawula lokho umphostoli uPawulu akubhalela amaKristu ekhulu lokuqala ayehlala eKorinte, eGrisi. Lo muzi wasendulo wawaziwa ngokuziphatha okubi. UPawulu waxwayisa: “Izifebe, noma abakhonza izithombe, iziphingi, amadoda agcinelwe izinjongo ezingezona ezemvelo, amadoda alala namadoda, amasela, abantu abahahayo, izidakwa, izithuki, noma abaphangi ngeke balizuze ifa lombuso kaNkulunkulu.” Wabe esenezela: “Kodwa nokho yilokho abanye kini ababeyikho. Kodwa seniye nagezwa nahlanzeka, seniye nangcweliswa, sekuthiwe nilungile egameni leNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu nangomoya kaNkulunkulu wethu.” (1 Korinte 6:9-11) Leli iphuzu elibalulekile—inkolo efanele yasiza abanye abantu ababengaziphathi kahle ukuba bahlanzeke babe izinceku zikaNkulunkulu ezihlanzekile neziqotho!
IBhayibheli libe selixwayisa: “Kuyofika isikhathi lapho abantu bengeke bazilalele izimfundiso ezinengqondo, kunalokho bayolandela izifiso zabo futhi bazibuthele abafundisi abaningi abayobatshela izinto abafuna ukuzizwa.”—2 Thimothewu 4:3, Today’s English Version.
