15. Kubaluleke ngani kutsi Jesu ‘avuswe kucala’?

¹⁵ Jesu nguye wekucala lowavuswa ngalendlela futsi kuvuswa kwakhe kubaluleke kakhulu. (Imis. 26:23) Noma kunjalo, bakhona nalabanye labatawuvuselwa ezulwini, babe tidalwa temoya. Jesu wacinisekisa baphostoli bakhe labetsembekile kutsi batawubusa naye ezulwini. (Luk. 22:28-30) Kufanele bacale bafe kuze batfole umvuzo wabo. Ngemuva kwaloko, batawuvuswa sebanemtimba wemoya njengobe kwenteka kuJesu. Pawula watsi: “Khristu uvusiwe kulabafile, wekucala kubo bonkhe labafile.” Pawula wachubeka wachaza kutsi bakhona nalabanye labatawuvuselwa ezulwini, watsi: “Nguloyo naloyo ngekulandzelana kwabo: Kucale Khristu, kutsi ngesikhatsi sekuba khona kwakhe kulandzele labo lababakhe.”​—1 Khor. 15:20, 23.

16. Yini lesikhombisa kutsi batawuvuswa nini bantfu labatawuphila ezulwini?

¹⁶ Loku kusenta sibone kutsi bantfu labatawuphila ezulwini batawuvuswa nini. Bebatawuvuswa “ngesikhatsi sekuba khona” kwaKhristu. Sekuphele sikhatsi lesidze BoFakazi BaJehova bakusekela eBhayibhelini kutsi kusukela nga-1914 besisolo siphila esikhatsini “sekuba khona” kwaKhristu. Solo siphila kuleso sikhatsi futsi kuphela kwalelive sekusedvute kakhulu.

17, 18. Yini letawenteka kulamanye emaKhristu lagcotjiwe ngesikhatsi sekuba khona kwaKhristu?

¹⁷ Mayelana nekuvuswa kwalabatawuphila ezulwini, liBhayibheli liphindze litsi: “Asifuni kutsi nibete lwati ngalabafile . . . Nasikholwa kutsi Jesu wafa waphindze wavuka, kusho kutsi nalabo labafe bakuJesu, Nkulunkulu utawubaletsa kanye naye . . . Tsine lesitawube sisaphila ngesikhatsi sekuba khona kweNkhosi, ngeke sibendvulele labo lesebafile; ngobe iNkhosi itawukwehla ivela ezulwini ikhipha ticondziso . . . futsi labo labafe basebunyeni naKhristu batawuvuka kucala. Ngemuva kwaloko, tsine lesiphilako sitawutsatfwa ngelifu kanye nabo kuze sihlangane neNkhosi emoyeni; bese siba nayo ngaso sonkhe sikhatsi.”​—1 Thes. 4:13-17.

¹⁸ Luvuko lwekucala belutakwenteka ngemuva “kwekuba khona” kwaKhristu. Labagcotjiwe labatawube baphila ngesikhatsi sekuhlupheka lokukhulu ‘batawutsatfwa ngelifu.’ (Mat. 24:31) Labo ‘labatawutsatfwa ngelifu’ angeke basafa. ‘Bonkhe batawuguculwa, ngekushesha nangekucwabita kweliso ngelicilongo lekugcina.’​—1 Khor. 15:51, 52.

20. Yini lengasenta setsembe kutsi bantfu labafile batawuvuswa ngendlela lehlelekile esikhatsini lesitako?

²⁰ Nalikhuluma ngalabatawuvuselwa ezulwini, liBhayibheli litsi, batawuvuswa “ngekulandzelana kwabo.” (1 Khor. 15:23) Singalindzela kutsi nalabo labatawuvuselwa emhlabeni batawuvuswa ngendlela lehlelekile. Lelo litsemba lelijabulisako. Labo labasandza kufa batawuvuswa ekucaleni kweMinyaka Leyinkhulungwane yini futsi bemukelwe bantfu lababatsandzako lababatiko? Emadvodza letsembekile lanelikhono lekuhola, atawuvuka kucala yini kute ahlele bantfu baNkulunkulu emhlabeni lomusha? Kutsiwani ngebantfu labangazange bamkhonte Jehova? Batavuswa nini futsi batawuvuselwa kuphi? Minyenti imibuto lesingatibuta yona. Kute sidzingo sekutsi sicabange ngalemibuto nyalo, kunaloko kufanele silindze kuze kufike leso sikhatsi. Siyetsemba kutsi itasijabulisa indlela Jehova latawenta ngayo.
