Yiba nedumela lokuba umuntu ovumelana nezimo. Zibuze: ‘Ingabe abantu bangazi njengomuntu ovumelana nezimo, ohoxayo nokwazi ukubekezelela abanye? Noma ingabe bangibheka njengomuntu ongaguquki emibonweni yakhe, olukhuni noma onenkani? Ingabe ngiyabalalela abanye, ngihoxe ngenze abakufisayo uma kufaneleka?’ Izinga esizivumelanisa ngalo nezimo libonisa ukuthi simlingisa kangakanani uJehova noJesu. Ukuvumelana nezimo kusho ukuhambisana nazo lapho izimo zethu zishintsha. Ushintsho olunjalo lungase lubangele ubunzima ekuphileni kwethu. Kungazelelwe singase siphathwe isifo esibucayi. Noma ushintsho olungalindelekile lwezomnotho noma lwezepolitiki lapho sihlala khona lungase lukuphazamise ngokuphelele ukuphila kwethu. (UmSh. 9:11) Ngisho nokushintsha uhlobo lwenkonzo esilwenzela uJehova kungasivivinya. Singakwazi ukuzivumelanisa ngokuphumelelayo nezimo ezintsha uma sithatha lezi zinyathelo ezine ezilandelayo: (1) ukwamukela ukuthi izinto sezishintshile, (2) cabanga ngekusasa, ungabheki emuva, (3) gxila kokuhle, (4) yenzela abanye izinto. w23.07 21-22 ¶7-8

Umprofethi uDaniyeli wayeyinsizwa lapho abaseBhabhiloni bemthatha ngempoqo bemenza isiboshwa futhi bemyisa kude nasekhaya. Kodwa kusobala ukuthi izikhulu zaseBhabhiloni zamthanda uDaniyeli. Zabona “okubonakala emehlweni”—ukuthi uDaniyeli ‘wayengenasici, ebukeka kahle’ nokuthi wayevela emndenini ohlonishwayo. (1 Sam. 16:7) Ngenxa yalokho, abaseBhabhiloni bamqeqesha ukuba abe yilungu elivelele lomphakathi. (Dan. 1:​3, 4, 6) UJehova wayethanda uDaniyeli ngenxa yohlobo lomuntu akhetha ukuba yilo. Empeleni, kungenzeka ukuthi uDaniyeli wayesezohlanganisa iminyaka engu-20 noma wayesanda kuyihlanganisa lapho uJehova ekhuluma kahle ngaye nangoNowa noJobe, amadoda ayechithe amashumi eminyaka ezakhela igama elihle noNkulunkulu. (Gen. 5:32; 6:​9, 10; Jobe 42:​16, 17; Hez. 14:14) UJehova waqhubeka emthanda uDaniyeli kukho konke ukuphila kwakhe okumangalisayo.—Dan. 10:​11, 19. w23.08 2 ¶1-2

Lapho ufuna ukuthenga indlu, ungafuna ukubona yonke imininingwane yale ndlu ofuna ukuyithenga. Singenza okufanayo nalapho sifunda futhi sitadisha iBhayibheli. Uma ulifunda ujaha, ungase uthole amaqiniso ayisisekelo kuphela—“izinto zokucathula zamazwi angcwele kaNkulunkulu.” (Heb. 5:12) Kunokulifunda ujahe, yenza ngendlela obungenza ngayo kule ndlu esixoxe ngayo, ngena “ngaphakathi” uhlole imininingwane yalo. Indlela enhle kakhulu yokutadisha iBhayibheli iwukubona ukuthi izingxenye ezihlukahlukene zomyalezo walo zihlobana kanjani. Ungagcini nje ngokuqonda ukuthi yimaphi amaqiniso owakholelwayo kodwa qonda nokuthi kungani uwakholelwa. Ukuze siliqonde ngokugcwele iZwi likaNkulunkulu, kumele sifunde amaqiniso alo ajulile. Umphostoli uPawulu wanxusa abafowabo nodadewabo abangamaKristu ukuba balitadishe ngenkuthalo iZwi likaNkulunkulu ukuze ‘bakuqonde ngokugcwele ububanzi nobude nokuphakama nokujula’ kweqiniso. Uma benza kanjalo ‘babeyoma baqine, bagxile njengezimpande zesihlahla’ okholweni lwabo. (Efe. 3:​14-19) Nathi kudingeka senze okufanayo. w23.10 18 ¶1-3
