nokuthula emhlabeni kubantu. UNkulunkulu esimkhonzayo ungophilayo, uyakuzwa<br />
ukukhala kwethu nemikhuleko yethu. Ngakho-ke masikhuleke s<strong>in</strong>gaphezi.<br />
Kulo itekisi lethu lentshumayelo yanamuhla sithola uPawulu uyalobela ibandla<br />
laseKor<strong>in</strong>te, uyalitshela ukuthi uJehova ungo<strong>the</strong>mbekileyo. Akaguquki, unguye<br />
namuhla nayizolo, naphakade uzohlala enguye. Ngakho lokhu sithi uJehova<br />
u<strong>the</strong>mbekile kwabamkhonzayo. Lokhu siyakubona kusukela ensim<strong>in</strong>i yaseEdeni<br />
lapho umuntu esewile esefanele ukufa kwaphakade uNkulunkulu egcwele umusa<br />
nesihawu. Wa<strong>the</strong>mbisa ngokuthi <strong>in</strong>zalo yowesifazane izokuchoboza ikhanda<br />
lenyoka. Okungukuthi uJesu Kristu uyakumnqoba uSathane. Bona-ke abakholwa<br />
nguye, bebhapathizwa egameni lakhe bayakus<strong>in</strong>diswa. Nembala wafika uJesu<br />
ezweni, washumayela ivangeli lokuthi abantu abaphenduke bakholwe, ngokuba<br />
isikhathi sesigcwalisekile. Ababemuzwa <strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>gi labo lakholwa nguye, njengalokhu<br />
nathi sikholwa nguye. Nokho kwakukhona abaJuda ababemelene nomsebenzi<br />
kaJesu. Babengakholelwa ukuthi nguye lona uNkulunkulu owa<strong>the</strong>mbisa ukuthi<br />
uzakuzalwa y<strong>in</strong>tombi. Ngakho lokhu uJesu bagc<strong>in</strong>a ngokuba bambe<strong>the</strong>le<br />

sizivuma izono zethu, u<strong>the</strong>mbikile,ulungile ukuba asi<strong>the</strong><strong>the</strong>lele ngenxa kaKristu.<br />
UPawulu uyalitshela ibandla laseKor<strong>in</strong>te ukuthi loJesu amshumayelayo yena,<br />
noSilvano, noThimo<strong>the</strong>wu uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu. Ibandla maliqaphele ukuba<br />
lime eq<strong>in</strong>isweni, ngoba loJesu unguyebo. Kanjani nathi esishumayelayo,<br />
sisashumayela yena loJesu owashunyayelwa ngabaphostoli basendulo. Ngakho,<br />
bazalwane, lahlani ukungabaza, nigcwalise ize<strong>the</strong>mbiso uNkulunkulu owazenza<br />
nani. UNkulunkulu o<strong>the</strong>mbekileyo uyabiza ukwe<strong>the</strong>mbeka kithi ngaso sonke<br />
isikhathi. Uyafuna ukuba sime eq<strong>in</strong>isweni, ngoba phela izwi lakhe liyiq<strong>in</strong>iso. Naye<br />
uJesu uy<strong>in</strong>dlela neq<strong>in</strong>iso nokuphila. Uma sibheka izibalo es<strong>in</strong>azo emabandleni ethu,<br />
sithola ukuthi s<strong>in</strong>abantu aban<strong>in</strong>gi abakhona emabhukw<strong>in</strong>i ebandla, kodwa uma<br />
usufuna manje ukubonana nabo, ukhulumisane nabo, kuyamangalisa ukuthola<br />
ukuthi abantu bakhonza ngapha esontweni, emakhaya bakhonza okunye. Ibandla<br />
lize lihlukane phakathi. Abanye bazibona bengcono kunabanye. Konke lokhu<br />
kulethwa ngukungabaza nokungemi eq<strong>in</strong>isweni lokwe<strong>the</strong>mba iNkosi yethu enguJesu<br />
Kristu, im<strong>in</strong>deni iyabhidlika, abantu bayamhlubuka uNkulunkulu, bayakhohlwa<br />
mas<strong>in</strong>yane izi<strong>the</strong>mbiso abazenza embhapathizweni, emq<strong>in</strong>isweni, emshadweni,<br />
ekugcotshweni, nokunye okunjalo. Ngakho lokhu uNkulunkulu akakholwa<br />
