⁷ Mu ino ntanda yo babena kulama kwi Satana “shanja bubela,” kikebewa bingi kuchinchika pa kuba’mba muntu alwile bukine. (Yoano 8:44; 14:30) Yesu wazhikijile bukine saka akijitu mwanyike, kechi wapembelejile’mba akikakome apa bino akobe kino ne. Byo ajinga na myaka 12, Yesu washajile mu Yelusalema Kijiilo kya Lupitailo byo kyapwile. Pa moba asatu, ba Maliya ne Yosefwa bamufumpijile bingi. Kabiji bamutaaine mu nzubo ya Lesa. Ñanyi bintu byo aubilenga mu nzubo ya Lesa? “Saka aikala mukachi ka bafunjishi na kuteleka kwi abo kabiji saka ebepuzha mepuzho.” (Luka 2:41-50) Umvwai jishinda jo esambijilengamo na bano bantu.

Banyike baji bino bachiina kwibatongola’mba bambepo bintu bimo, bachiina kwibayuka byo baji, kabiji bachiina kwibalengesha bumvu nangwa kwibaseka ku bakwabo.

⁹ Pakuba Yesu waikele na bafunjishi bayukile bintu byavula kabiji kwa kubula kuchiina wibepwizhenga mepuzho. Kabiji watwajijile na kwibepuzha. Jishimikila jitubuula’mba: “Aba bonse bamutelekelenga bakuminyenga bingi maana anji ne mikumbu yanji.” (Luka 2:47) Baibolo kechi witubuula bintu byo aambile pa kyokya kimye ne. Pano bino, twayuka’mba kechi wapitulukilenga mu mafunjisho a bubela atemenwe bafunjishi ba bupopweshi ne. (1 Petelo 2:22) Wakosejile ku bukine bwa Mambo a Lesa, kabiji bantu bamutelekelenga bakuminye bingi kumona mwana wa myaka 12 saka akasuluka kulumbulula bukine bulongo kwa kubula moyo.

Pa sukulu nangwa mu mapunzha mo bekala, bepuzha bantu mepuzho, kuteleka ne kwisamba nabo bukine na mushingi. (1 Petelo 3:15) Abano banyike bakwasha bingi bakwabo mo bafunjila, bafunjishi ne boba bo bekala nabo kipikipi kwikala baana ba bwanga ba kwa Kilishitu. Kubula moyo kwabo kutokesha bingi Yehoba ku muchima! Baibolo waesakanya banyike ku kime, mambo banyike bavula babena kukwasha bantu kuyuka Lesa.​—Salamo 110:3.

Yesu wamukaine Satana, byo aingijishenga Binembelo kutama. Yesu washinjile luno lweseko ne kumwambila na jiwi jakosa’mba: “Fuma papo Satana!”​—Mateo 4:2-11.

¹² Yesu byo aingijilenga mwingilo wa kusapwila walwilangako Mambo a Lesa ku bantu bealumbulwilanga mungi. Byonkatu byo kiji mu ano moba, kubula bukishinka mu bya bupopweshi kwauba ne woo byonkatu byo kyajinga kala. Yesu byo ajinga pano pa ntanda, waambijile bantangi ba bupopweshi’mba: “Mupeezha mambo a Lesa na mambo a bisho byenu byo mwapa bantu.” (Mako 7:13) Bano banabalume bebanemekele bingi ku bantu, bino Yesu kwa kubula moyo wibasanzhilemo’mba bajinga bantangi bampofu kabiji bakamfutumfutu.a (Mateo 23:13, 16) Twakonsha kulondela byepi kubula moyo kwa kwa Yesu?

Kitusangajika bingi kwimwena kufika kwa mulaye wa kwa Yesu wa kuba’mba: “Bukine bukemukasulula.”​—Yoano 8:32.

¹⁴ Bungauzhi buji mu Baibolo bwaambijile jimo kuba’mba Mesiasa ukalumbulwila bisaka bya bantu “jishinda jaoloka.” (Mateo 12:18; Isaya 42:1) Yesu watendekele kuba bino byoajinga pano pa ntanda. Kwa kubula moyo, waubilanga bantu bintu byawama kabiji kechi wajinga na misalululo ne. Wakaine kutundaika misalululo ne kulondela bisho byabula bya mu binembelo byakumbene pano pa ntanda.

Bakuminye mambo mu oa moba, Bayudea kechi baumvwañananga na bena Samaliya ne. Kuno kwishikwa kwatendekele kala ne Yesu saka akyangye kwiya pano pa ntanda. (Ezela 4:4) Kabiji kunungapo, balabi bamo kechi banemekanga banabakazhi ne. Palutwe kacheche, mu mizhilo ya balabi banembelemo ne muzhilo mukwabo wa kulekesha mwanamulume kwisamba na mwanamukazhi.

Pakuba Yesu wakaine kulondela ino misalululo kabiji wafunjishe mwanamukazhi mwina Samaliya saka batalako (wajinga na byubilo byatama) ne kwisolola ku uno mwanamukazhi’mba ye Mesiasa.​—Yoano 4:5-27.

Kampe bamba byatama pa bakwabo ba ku kyalo kingi nangwa bamba mulaka ungi, kwamba bintu byatama pa banabakazhi nangwa banabalume nangwa kampe kulengulula bayanji. Aba balondela Kilishitu kechi batundaika misambo yatama ya uno mutundu ne, bakebesha bingi kufumya misalululo yonse iji mu michima yabo.

17. Ñanyi kintu kyaubile Yesu mu nzubo ya Lesa, kabiji mambo ka?

¹⁷ Kubula moyo kwalengejile Yesu kukebesha kukwasha bantu kukosesha bulunda bwabo ne Lesa ne kutundaika bupopweshi bwa kine. Byo atendekele mwingilo wanji, watwelele mu nzubo ya Lesa mu Yelusalema kabiji wakuminye bingi byo ataaine bantu bapoteshenga ne kupimpula mali monka. Byo azhingijile, Yesu wafumishe bya busulu byabo byonse ne kupangamo banabalume. (Yoano 2:13-17) Kabiji ku mpelo ya mwingilo wanji, waubile kintu kya yenka uno mutundu.

Mambo kufumatu ku bwanyike bwanji watelele nzubo ya Lesa kwikala ya Shanji kabiji wiinemekele bingi. (Luka 2:49) Kubila busulu mu nzubo ya Lesa ajinga mambo abulala kabiji Yesu kechi waswishishe kino kyubilo ne. Mukoyo wanji wamulengejile kutwajijila kuba bintu byaoloka.

18. Bena Kilishitu mu ano moba bafwainwa kuba byepi pa kuba’mba bakwashe kipwilo kwikala kyatooka?

Inge bayuka’mba mulongo nangwa nyenga mu kipwilo walenga mambo akatampe, kechi batalapotu ne. Kwa kubula moyo, batundaika muntu walenga mambo kwisolola mwine ku bakulumpe mu kipwilo.

Kabiji bakulumpe mu kipwilo baji na mwingilo wa kukwasha balenga mambo ne kupanga walenga mambo mu kipwilo pa kuba’mba bazhikijile mikooko ya Yehoba yashala.​—Yakoba 5:14, 15.

¹⁹ Pano nanchi twafwainwa kwamba’mba Yesu wapwishishe misalululo ne nshiji yajingako pano pa ntanda pa kyokya kimye nyi? Nshiji yavujile bingi. Muzhi mo aikalanga mwajinga bantu bavula ba ku byalo bingi. Bena Loma bamanyikanga bingi Bayudea kwingijisha bashilikale, bebatongwelanga kupana misonko yabaya ne kwibakanya kupopwela Lesa wabo. Kabiji bantu bavula bakebelenga Yesu kwivwanga mu bya bumulwila ntanda. (Yoano 6:14, 15) Yesu wakainetu nsalansala kwivwangamo.

²⁰ Yesu walumbulwile’mba Bufumu bwanji kechi bwa pano pa ntanda ne. Aye wafunjishe baana banji ba bwanga kubula kwivwanga mu bya bumulwila ntanda ne kwibatundaika kutesha bingi muchima ku mwingilo wa kusapwila mambo awama a Bufumu bwa Lesa. (Yoano 17:16; 18:36) Wafunjishe baana banji ba bwanga kintu kyanema bingi pa mambo a kubula kwivwanga mu bya ino ntanda kimye kyaishile jibumba ja bantu kuba’mba bamukwate. Ponkapotu Petelo wasomwene mpoko yanji ne kukozha mwanamulume umo. Kyapeela kwamba’mba kintu kyaubile Petelo kyajingatu bulongo. Bamo bakonsha kwamba’mba kyaubile Petelo kyajingatu bulongo mambo bano bantu balukukile Mwana Lesa wabujile mambo.

Onkao mambo, ne atweba lelo jino byo byo twafwainwa kubanga.

Yesu wachinchikile byepi mu bino bya malwa byonse byo apichilengamo? Ñanyi kintu kyaubilenga Yesu jibumba ja bantu saka jikyangye kwiya na kumukwata? Walombelenga na mukoyo kwi Yehoba. Nga Yehoba waubilepo ka? Baibolo witubuula’mba “Lesa wamumvwine” Yesu byo alombelenga. (Bahebelu 5:7) Yehoba watumine malaika kufuma mwiulu kwiya na kukosesha Mwananji wabujile moyo.​—Luka 22:42, 43.

²² Aku Yesu bamukoseshatu, waambijile batumwa banji’mba: “Imanai, twayai tuyenga.” (Mateo 26:46) Akilangulukaipotu pa bulume buji mu bino byambo. Wibambijile’mba “twayai tuyenga” bino aye saka ayuka’mba usakwambila jibumba ja bantu kubula kukatazha balunda nanji. Wayukile’mba balunda nanji basakunyema ne kumusha bunke.

Mu bino byonse bya malwa, Yesu wachinchikile.

23. Lumbululai ene mambo o twafwainwa kwambila’mba Yesu kechi wabujile kwita muchima aye mwine, kimye kyo bamumanyikilenga ne kukeba kumwipaya ne.

²³ Nanchi Yesu kechi witele muchima nenyi? Ine; kubula kwita muchima kechi kuji pamo na kuchinchika ne. Mambo Yesu wafunjishe baana banji ba bwanga kujimuka ne kuyuka mwa kunyemena balwanyi pa kuba’mba batwajijile kuba kyaswa muchima wa Lesa. (Mateo 4:12; 10:16) Nangwa byonkabyo, pa kikye kimye Yesu wayukile’mba kechi wafwainwe kukanya kino kubiwa ne. Mambo wayukile byavwangiwemo mu kuba kyaswa muchima wa Lesa. Yesu wafuukwilepo kutwajijila kwikala wakishinka kwi shanji. Onkao mambo, kintu kyo afwainwe kuba ke kuketekelatu mwi Lesa.

24. Mambo ka o twafwainwa kushiinwa kuba’mba nangwa tukapite mu meseko a mutundu ka tukatwajijila kuchinchika?

²⁴ Baana ba bwanga ba kwa Yesu batwajijila kwenda mu ngayo ya Nkambo yabo nangwa bintu bikatazhepotu byepi. Bavula bachinchika bingi inge babena kwibendeleka, kwibamanyika, kwibakwata, kwibataya mu tuleya ne pa kwibayanjisha kufikatu ne ku lufu. Nanchi bantu bandengamambo bafumya kwepi buno bulume bwa kuchinchika? Kechi bufuma kwi abo bene ne. Byonkatu Yesu byo atambwijile bukwasho kufuma mwiulu, ne baana banji ba bwanga nabo batambula buno bulume kufuma mwiulu. (Filipai 4:13) Onkao mambo, kechi mwafwainwa kuchiina bintu bikemumwekela kulutwe ne. Kosai ne kutwajijila kwikala bakishinka kabiji Yehoba ukemupa bulume bwa kuchinchika. Onkao mambo, twajijilai kufunjila kwi Ntangi wetu aye Yesu waambile’mba: “Kosai! Amiwa nepashinda pano pa ntanda.”​—Yoano 16:33.
