UYehova Ulikhokela Njani Ibandla Ngocwangco?
UYehova nguThixo wocwangco. (1 Korinte 14:33, 40) Nabantu bakhe bafanele babe ngabantu abanjalo. UYehova ulikhokela njani ibandla ngocwangco? Yintoni esinokuyenza ukuze kuhlale kukho ucwangco ebandleni?
1. Ngubani intloko yebandla?
‘UKristu yintloko yebandla.’ (Efese 5:23) Ngoku esezulwini, ukhokela umsebenzi owenziwa ngabantu bakaYehova emhlabeni wonke. UYesu ukhethe ‘ikhoboka elithembekileyo neliyingqondi.’ Eli khoboka ngabazalwana abambalwa abaneminyaka emininzi bengabadala, babizwa nangokuba liQumrhu Elilawulayo. (Funda uMateyu 24:45-47.) Bayafana nabapostile kunye nabadala ababeseYerusalem, kuba bachazela amabandla asemhlabeni wonke izinto amele azenze. (IZenzo 15:2) Kodwa abazonkokheli zentlangano yethu. Bafunda iBhayibhile ukuze beve ukuba uYehova ufuna benze ntoni, futhi balandela ukhokelo lukaYesu.
2. Yintoni eyenziwa ngabadala?
Abadala ngamadoda aneminyaka emininzi engamaKristu athembekileyo. Bafundisa abantu bakaYehova besebenzisa iBhayibhile, bayabanceda baze babakhuthaze. Ababhatalwa ngale nto bayenzayo. Bayenza ‘ngokuzithandela phambi koThixo, hayi kuba benyanzelwa okanye benyolukile, kodwa kuba befuna nyhani.’ (1 Petros 5:1, 2) Abadala bancediswa zizicaka zolungiselelo. Ekuhambeni kwexesha, nazo zingaba ngabadala.
IQumrhu Elilawulayo likhetha abanye abadala ukuba babe ngabaveleli besiphaluka. Aba baveleli baya kumabandla ohlukeneyo, bawancede ngezinto amele azenze baze bakhuthaze abazalwana noodade. Basebenzisa iBhayibhile ukuze babone ukuba umzalwana angasiso na isicaka solungiselelo okanye umdala.—1 Timoti 3:1-10, 12; Tito 1:5-9.
3. Yintoni eyenziwa liNgqina LikaYehova?
Bonke abantu abasebandleni ‘badumisa igama likaYehova’ ngokuba nezinto abazenzayo kwiintlanganiso nangokushumayela kangangoko banako.—Funda iNdumiso 148:12, 13.
