6 Mu kalata yake iyo wakalembera Ŵahebere, Paulosi wakachiska Ŵakhristu ŵanyake kuti ŵasambirenge Mazgu gha Chiuta na kughanaghanirapo chomene. (Ŵazgani Ŵahebere 5:14–6:1.)

‘MUŴE NA CHIPULIKANO CHAKUSUNGILIRA UMOYO WINU’

9 Ŵakhristu Ŵachihebere ŵakakhumbikwiranga chipulikano chakukhora kuti ŵapone pa suzgo yikuru iyo yikaŵa kuti yiwenge mu Yudeya. (Heb. 10:37-39) Yesu wakaŵachenjezgerathu ŵalondezgi ŵake kuti para ŵawona Yerusalemu wakuzingilizgika na ŵankhondo, ŵakwenera kuchimbilira ku mapiri. Ulongozgi wake ukalutanga ku Ŵakhristu wose, kwali ŵakakhalanga mu msumba uwu panji mu Yudeya. (Luka 21:20-24) Panyengo iyo, ŵanthu para ŵawukilika na ŵalwani ŵakachimbiliranga mu msumba uwo ukaŵanga na linga nga umo ukaŵira Yerusalemu. Ntheura chikaŵa chambura kupulikikwa kuchimbilira ku mapiri ndipo pakakhumbikwiranga chipulikano chakukhora chomene.
10. Kasi chipulikano chakukhora chingachiska Ŵakhristu kuchitachi? (Ŵahebere 13:17)

Awo ŵakalongozganga ŵakwenera kuti ŵakapelekanga ulongozgi wakudunjika kuti wovwire wose mu mpingo kulondezga ulongozgi wa Yesu pa nyengo yakwenelera kweniso munthowa yiwemi. (Ŵazgani Ŵahebere 13:17.) Lizgu la Chigiriki ilo lili kugwiliskirika ntchito pa Ŵahebere 13:17 lakuti ‘kupulikira’ likung’anamura kuti munthu wakuchiskika kupulikira chifukwa chakuti wakumugomezga munthu uyo wakumupa ulongozgi. Ivi vikusazgapo vinandi padera pa kupulikira munthu chifukwa chakuti waka wali na mazaza kupeleka ulongozgi. Ntheura Ŵakhristu Ŵachihebere ŵakakhumbikwiranga kusambira kuŵagomezga awo ŵakalongozganga pambere suzgo yindafike. Usange pa nyengo ya mtende Ŵakhristu ŵakapulikiranga ulongozgi wakufuma ku awo ŵakalongozganga, chikate chiŵaŵirenge chipusu kupulikira pa nyengo ya suzgo.
11. Chifukwa wuli ntchakuzirwa chomene kuti Ŵakhristu ŵaŵe na chipulikano chakukhora?
11 Mazuŵa ghano napo tikukhumbikwira kuŵa na chipulikano nga umo vikaŵira na Ŵakhristu Ŵachihebere. Tikukhala mu nyengo iyo ŵanthu ŵanandi ŵakutigoska kweniso ŵakukana uthenga wa mu Baibolo wakuti umaliro wa charu ichi waneng’enera. (2 Pet. 3:3, 4) Nangauli Baibolo likuvumbura vinthu vinandi pa nkhani ya ivyo vizamuchitika pa nyengo ya suzgo yikuru, kweni pali vinandi ivyo tikumanya yayi. Tikwenera kuŵa na chipulikano chakukhora kuti tigomezge kuti umaliro wa charu ichi wizenge pa nyengo yakwenelera kweniso kuti Yehova wazamutivikilira pa nyengo iyi.—Hab. 2:3.
12. Kasi ntchivichi chizamutovwira kupona pa suzgo yikuru?
12 Tikweneraso kuŵa na chipulikano na kugomezga nthowa iyo Yehova wakugwiliskira ntchito mazuŵa ghano kutilongozga. Iyo wakugwiliskira ntchito “muzga wakugomezgeka na wavinjeru.” (Mat. 24:45) Para suzgo yikuru yazakamba, tingazakapokera ulongozgi wakudunjika uwo ungazakatiponoska, nga umo vikaŵira na Ŵakhristu Ŵachihebere apo ŵasilikari Ŵachiroma ŵakazingilizga msumba. Sono ndiyo nyengo yakuti tisambire kugomezga chomene ulongozgi uwo tikupokera kufuma ku awo ŵakulongozga mu gulu la Yehova. Tileke kukhazga kuti pa suzgo yikuru ndipo tizamupulikira ulongozgi wawo usange pasono vikutisuzga kulondezga.
13. Chifukwa wuli ulongozgi wa pa Ŵahebere 13:5 ukaŵa wakukhumbikwa?
13 Apo ŵakalindiliranga chimanyikwiro chakuti ŵachimbire, Ŵakhristu Ŵachihebere ŵakakhumbikwiranga kuŵa na umoyo wambura kukhumba vinandi, kweniso wambura “kutemwa ndalama.” (Ŵazgani Ŵahebere 13:5.) Ŵanyake mwa iwo ŵakaŵa kuti ŵakumanapo na suzgo la njara kweniso ukavu. (Heb. 10:32-34) Nangauli pakwamba ŵakaŵa ŵakukhumbisiska kuzizipizga masuzgo chifukwa cha makani ghawemi, kweni ŵanyake ŵakwenera kuti ŵakamba kuwona kuti usambazi ndiwo ngwakukhumbikwa chomene kuti ŵaŵe ŵakuvikilirika. Kweni ndalama zikatenge ziŵavikilirenge yayi pa nyengo iyo Yerusalemu wakaparanyikanga. (Yak. 5:3) Nakuti wose awo ŵakatemwanga chomene vinthu vyakuthupi chikwenera kuti chikaŵaŵira chakusuzga chomene kuchimbira na kuleka nyumba na katundu wawo munandi.
14. Kasi chipulikano chakukhora chingakhwaska wuli umo tikusankhira pa nkhani ya vinthu vyakuthupi mazuŵa ghano?
14 Usange tili na chipulikano chakukhora tigomezgenge kuti umaliro wa charu chiheni ichi uli pafupi chomene, ndipo tigegenge kuŵa na mtima wakutemwa chomene vinthu vyakuthupi. Pa nyengo ya suzgo yikuru, ndalama zizamuŵavya ntchito ndipo Baibolo likuti ŵanthu “ŵazamutaya siliva lawo mu misewu,” chifukwa ŵazamumanya kuti “siliva panji golide lawo vizamuŵaponoska yayi mu zuŵa la ukali ukuru wa Yehova.” (Ezek. 7:19) M’malo mwa kuŵika mtima pa kujiwunjikira usambazi, tikwenera kusankha vinthu ivyo vingatovwira kuti tiŵe na umoyo wambura kukhumba vinandi uku tikupwelelera mbumba zithu na kuteŵetera Yehova. Ivi vikusazgapo kugega kunjira mu ngongoli zambura kwenelera panji kumalira nyengo yithu yinandi kupwelelera vinthu vyakuthupi ivyo tili navyo. Tikweneraso kuŵa maso kuti tileke kutemwa chomene vinthu vithu ivyo tili navyo. (Mat. 6:19, 24) Chipulikano chithu chingayezgeka pa nkhani ya vinthu vyakuthupi kweniso vinyake apo tikulindilira umaliro kuti wize.
“MUKUKHUMBIKWIRA KUZIZIPIZGA”
15. Chifukwa wuli Ŵakhristu Ŵachihebere ŵakakhumbikwiranga chomene kuzizipizga?
15 Ŵakhristu Ŵachihebere ŵakakhumbikwiranga kuzizipizga apo vinthu vikahenipirangahenipiranga mu Yudeya. (Heb. 10:36) Nangauli Ŵakhristu ŵanyake Ŵachihebere ŵakasanganapo na nthambuzgo yikuru, kweni ŵanandi ŵakazgoka Ŵakhristu pa nyengo ya mtende. Paulosi wakayowoya kuti nangauli ŵakaŵa kuti ŵazizipizgapo masuzgo ghakuru, kweni ŵakaŵa kuti ŵandasuzgikepo nga ni Yesu, kufika na pa kukomeka wuwo. (Heb. 12:4) Ndipouli, apo Chikhristu chikathandazgikanga, Ŵayuda awo ŵakasuskanga ŵakaŵangaso ŵakali chomene na ŵankhaza. Vyaka vichoko waka kumanyuma, Paulosi apo wakawonekera mu Yerusalemu, kukawuka chivulupi. Ŵayuda ŵakujumpha 40 “ŵakajilapizga, ŵakayowoya kuti ŵaryenge chara nesi kumwa m’paka ŵamukome dankha Paulosi.” (Mil. 22:22; 23:12-14) Nangauli Ŵakhristu aŵa ŵakatinkhikanga kweniso kutambuzgika, kweni ŵakakhumbikwiranga kuwungana pamoza kuti ŵasope, ŵapharazge makani ghawemi, kweniso kulutilira kuŵa na chipulikano chakukhora.
16. Kasi kalata yakuluta ku Ŵahebere yingatovwira wuli kuti tiwonenge mwakwenelera nthambuzgo? (Ŵahebere 12:7)
16 Kasi ntchivichi chikate chiwovwirenge Ŵakhristu Ŵachihebere kuzizipizga apo ŵakasuskikanga? Paulosi wakamanya kuti ŵakakhumbikwiranga kuwona mwakwenelera viyezgo vyawo. Ntheura wakalongosora kuti Chiuta wangazomerezga kuti Ŵakhristu ŵasangane na masuzgo mwakuti waŵasambizge chinthu chinyake. (Ŵazgani Ŵahebere 12:7.) Ŵangasambirapo mikhaliro Yachikhristu na kwengeka. Chikate chiŵenge chipusu ku Ŵakhristu Ŵachihebere aŵa kuzizipizga viyezgo para ŵaghanaghanira viwemi ivyo vikuŵapo para ŵachita nthena.—Heb. 12:11.
17. Kasi Paulosi wakasambira vichi pa nkhani ya kuzizipizga?
17 Paulosi wakachiska Ŵakhristu Ŵachihebere kuti ŵaŵikepo chomene mtima kuzizipizga viyezgo. Nakuti Paulosi wakaŵa wakwenelera kuŵalembera ulongozgi pa nkhani iyi. Pakuti nayo pakwamba wakatambuzganga Ŵakhristu, wakamanyanga makora umo ŵakutambuzgikira. Wakamanyangaso umo munthu wangazizipizgira nthambuzgo. Nakuti wakakumana na masuzgo ghakupambanapambana wati waŵa Mkhristu. (2 Kor. 11:23-25) Ntheura Paulosi wakamanyanga makora ivyo vikukhumbikwa kuti munthu wazizipizge. Wakakumbuska Ŵakhristu aŵa kuti apo ŵakuzizipizga viyezgo, ŵakwenera yayi kujithemba m’malo mwake ŵathembenge Yehova. Ivi ndivyo vikawovwira Paulosi kuti waŵe na chikanga mwakuti wakayowoya kuti: “Yehova ni movwiri wane, nopenge chara.”—Heb. 13:6.
18. Kasi ntchivichi chichitikirenge waliyose wa ise munthazi, ndipo tikwenera kuchitachi pasono?
18 Ŵabali ŵithu ŵanyake pasono nthena ŵakutambuzgika. Tingaŵawovwira mwa kuŵalombera kweniso nyengo zinyake tingaŵapa vyakukhumbikwira. (Heb. 10:33) Ndipouli, Baibolo likuyowoya mwakupulikikwa kuti “wose awo ŵakukhumba kusopa Chiuta mwakujipeleka mwakulondezga Khristu Yesu, nawo ŵatambuzgikenge.” (2 Tim. 3:12) Pa chifukwa ichi tose tikwenera kunozgekelerathu vinthu ivyo vikwiza munthazi. Ntheura tiyeni tilutilire kuthemba chomene Yehova, ndipo tiŵe na chigomezgo chose kuti watovwirenge kuzizipizga chiyezgo chilichose icho tingasangana nacho. Pa nyengo yakwenelera, Yehova wazamupumuzga ŵasopi ŵake wose ŵakugomezgeka.—2 Tes. 1:7, 8.
19. Kasi tingachita wuli kuti tinozgekere suzgo yikuru? (Wonaniso chithuzi.)
19 Tikukayika yayi kuti kalata iyo Paulosi wakalembera Ŵahebere yikawovwira Ŵakhristu ŵakwambilira aŵa kunozgekera suzgo iyo ŵakaŵa kuti ŵakumanenge nayo.

Wakaŵachiska kuti ŵakhozge chipulikano chawo mwakuti chiŵawovwire kulondezga luŵiro ulongozgi wa Yesu na wa awo ŵakulongozga mu mpingo. Ndipo wakawovwira Ŵakhristu kuzizipizga viyezgo mwa kuwona kuti ni mwaŵi wakuti ŵasambizgike na Adada ŵawo ŵachitemwa. Mphanyi nase talondezga ulongozgi uwu, ndipo para tichitenge nthena tizizipizgenge mwakugomezgeka m’paka paumaliro.—Heb. 3:14.
