Lembali silikunena za dziko lapansi lenilenili chifukwa anthu ndi amene amakhala ndi ‘zilakolako’ zoipa. Mawu akuti “dziko” akutanthauza anthu amene safuna kumvera Mulungu ndipo Baibulo limati ndi adani ake. (Yakobo 4:4) Limanenanso kuti Mulungu adzaweruza anthu amenewa “kuti alandire chilango cha chiwonongeko chamuyaya.” (2 Atesalonika 1:7-9) Koma anthu amene amatsatira zimene Yesu Khristu ananena n’kumayesetsa kusakhala “mbali ya dzikoli,” adzalandira moyo wosatha.—Yohane 15:19.

N’chifukwa chake lemba la 1 Yohane 2:17 limamaliza n’kunena kuti: “Wochita chifuniro cha Mulungu adzakhala kosatha.” Koma kodi adzakhala kuti? Lemba la Salimo 37:29 limati: “Olungama adzalandira dziko lapansi, ndipo adzakhala mmenemo kwamuyaya.”

Baibulo limanena kuti Mulungu adzayamba ndi kuwononga zipembedzo zabodza. Limanena kuti zipembedzo zimenezi zili ngati hule ndipo zimatchedwa “Babulo Wamkulu.” (Chivumbulutso 17:1-5; 18:8) Mulungu adzawononga zipembedzozi chifukwa ndi zosakhulupirika. M’malo molambira Mulungu yekha, zimagwirizana kwambiri ndi andale. Ndiye Mulungu adzagwiritsa ntchito andale omwewo kuti aziwononge. N’chifukwa chake Baibulo limati: ‘Adzadana nalo hulelo ndipo adzalisakaza ndi kulisiya lamaliseche. Adzadya minofu yake ndi kulinyeketsa ndi moto.’—Chivumbulutso 17:16.

Kenako, Mulungu adzathana ndi andalewo, omwe Baibulo limawatchula kuti “mafumu a dziko lonse lapansi.” Adzawononganso anthu onse oipa ndipo zonsezi zidzachitika pa ‘nkhondo ya tsiku lalikulu la Mulungu Wamphamvuyonse.’ Nkhondo imeneyi imatchedwanso kuti “Haramagedo.”—Chivumbulutso 16:14, 16.

“Bwerani kwa Yehova, inu nonse ofatsa a padziko lapansi, amene mwakhala mukutsatira zigamulo zake. Yesetsani kukhala olungama, yesetsani kukhala ofatsa. Mwina mungadzabisike pa tsiku la mkwiyo wa Yehova.”—Zefaniya 2:3.

Mulungu adzawononga anthu oipa akadzaona kuti uthenga wabwino wonena za Ufumu wa Mulungu walalikidwa mokwanira. Ufumu umenewu udzalowa m’malo mwa maboma a anthu. (Danieli 7:13, 14) Yesu Khristu anati: “Uthenga wabwino uwu wa ufumu udzalalikidwa padziko lonse lapansi kumene kuli anthu, kuti ukhale umboni ku mitundu yonse, kenako mapeto adzafika.” (Mateyu 24:14) Choncho, ntchito yolalikira ndi “chizindikiro” chakuti mapeto ayandikira ndipo imasonyeza kuti Mulungu ndi wachifundo. Palinso zizindikiro zina monga nkhondo, zivomerezi, njala komanso matenda.—Mateyu 24:3; Luka 21:10, 11.

Baibulo limanenanso kuti makhalidwe a anthu adzafika poipa kwambiri “m’masiku otsiriza.” Mwachitsanzo, limati: “Masiku otsiriza adzakhala nthawi yapadera komanso yovuta. Pakuti anthu adzakhala odzikonda, okonda ndalama, . . . osamvera makolo, . . . osadziletsa, oopsa, osakonda zabwino, . . . okonda zosangalatsa, m’malo mokonda Mulungu.” *—2 Timoteyo 3:1-5.

Kungochokera m’chaka cha 1914 pamene nkhondo yoyamba yapadziko lonse inayamba, zinthu padzikoli zakhala zikuipiraipira. Komanso kuyambira chaka chimenecho, uthenga wabwino wonena za Ufumu wa Mulungu wakhala ukulalikidwa padziko lonse. A Mboni za Yehova amayesetsa kugwira ntchito yolalikira za Ufumu umenewu. N’chifukwa chake magazini yawo imene ndi yodziwika kwambiri imakhala ndi mutu wakuti, Nsanja ya Olonda Yolengeza Ufumu wa Yehova.
