Muunzila nzi mwaapostolo Paulo ‘mwaakakwempelwa kujulu lyatatu’ alimwi ‘amuparadaiso’?—2Kor. 12:2-4.

Kulugwalo lwa 2 Bakorinto 12:2, 3, Paulo waamba muntu umwi ‘iwakakwempelwa kujulu lyatatu.’ Ino muntu ooyo wakali ni? Kalembela mbungano yaku Korinto, Paulo wakakankaizya kuti Leza wakali kumubelesya kali mwaapostolo.

Bwami bwabu Mesiya oobu mbombubo Petro mbwaakali kwaamba ciindi naakaamba kuti tulangila “majulu mapya” kweelana acisyomezyo ca Leza.—2Pet. 3:13.
