(1 Bassek. 22:19-22) Yakuwa atuukiridde, naye mu kiseera kino tatusuubira kuba batuukiridde. Mu kifo ky’ekyo, ayamba abaweereza be abatatuukiridde okutuukiriza obulungi obuweereza bwabwe. (Zab. 113:6, 7) Mu butuufu, Bayibuli eyita Yakuwa ‘omuyambi.’ (Zab. 27:9; Beb. 13:6) Kabaka Dawudi yagamba nti obwetoowaze bwa Yakuwa bwe bwamusobozesa okukola ebintu byonna eby’amaanyi bye yakola.​—2 Sam. 22:36.

Yesu kennyini yagamba nti: “Mbateereddewo ekyokulabirako; nga bwe nkoze nammwe bwe musaanidde okukola.” (Yok. 13:12-17) Wadde nga Yesu yalina obuyinza bungi, yali tasuubira balala kumuweereza. Mu kifo ky’ekyo, yaweerezanga abalala.​—Mat. 20:28.

11. Omutwe gw’amaka ayinza atya okukoppa Yakuwa ne Yesu mu kwoleka obwetoowaze?

Awuliriza endowooza z’ab’omu maka ge ne bwe ziba nga zaawukana ku yiye. Marley, abeera mu Amerika agamba nti: “Nze n’omwami wange oluusi tuba n’endowooza za njawulo. Naye nkiraba nti ansiima era anzisaamu ekitiibwa olw’okuba asooka kumbuuza kye ndowooza era n’akifumiitirizaako nga tannaba kubaako ky’asalawo.” Ate era omwami omwetoowaze aba mwetegefu okukola emirimu egy’awaka ne bwe kiba nti mu kitundu gy’abeera emirimu egyo gitwalibwa nti gya bakazi. Ekyo kiyinza obutaba kyangu. Lwaki? Mwannyinaffe ayitibwa Rachel agamba nti: “Mu kitundu gye nva, omwami bw’ayambako mukyala we okwoza ebintu oba okuyonja ennyumba, baliraanwa be n’ab’eŋŋanda ze batandika okwebuuza obanga ddala ‘musajja.’ Balowooza nti aba tasobola kufuga mukazi we.” Bwe kiba nti abantu mu kitundu gy’obeera balina endowooza ng’eyo, kijjukire nti Yesu yanaaza ebigere by’abayigirizwa be wadde ng’omulimu ogwo gwali gutwalibwa okuba ogw’abaddu. Omutwe gw’amaka omulungi ky’atwala ng’ekikulu si kwe kuleetera abalala okumutwala nti wa kitalo, wabula kwe kuleetera mukyala we n’abaana be okuwulira obulungi. Ng’oggyeeko obwetoowaze, ngeri ki endala omutwe gw’amaka gy’asaanidde okwoleka?

12. Okwagala kuleetera Yakuwa ne Yesu kukola ki?

¹² Okwagala. Buli kintu Yakuwa ky’akola okwagala kwe kumuleetera okukikola.

Ate byo ebyetaago byaffe eby’omubiri? Yakuwa “atuwa mu bungi ebintu byonna ebitusanyusa.” (1 Tim. 6:17) Bwe tukola ensobi atugolola naye talekera awo kutwagala. Olw’okuba Yakuwa atwagala, yakola enteekateeka tusobole okununulibwa. Yesu naye atwagala nnyo ne kiba nti yawaayo obulamu bwe ku lwaffe. (Yok. 3:16; 15:13) Tewali kiyinza kumalawo kwagala Yakuwa ne Yesu kwe balina eri abo beesigwa gye bali.​—Yok. 13:1; Bar. 8:35, 38, 39.

¹³ Bye tuyiga. Buli kintu omutwe gw’amaka ky’akola, okwagala kwe kusaanidde okumuleetera okukikola. Lwaki ekyo kikulu nnyo? Omutume Yokaana yagamba nti: “Oyo atayagala muganda we [oba wa mu maka ge] gw’alabako tayinza kwagala Katonda gw’atalabangako.” (1 Yok. 4:11, 20) Omwami ayagala ab’omu maka ge era ayagala okukoppa Yakuwa ne Yesu, aba afaayo ku byetaago byabwe eby’omwoyo, ku nneewurira yaabwe, ne ku byetaago byabwe eby’omubiri. (1 Tim. 5:8) Atendeka abaana be era abakangavvula. Ate era yeeyongera okuyiga okusalawo mu ngeri esanyusa Yakuwa era eganyula ab’omu maka ge. Ka tulabe buli kimu ku bintu ebyo, era tulabe engeri omutwe gw’amaka gy’ayinza okukoppa Yakuwa ne Yesu.

15. Engeri emu omutwe gw’amaka gy’akiraga nti afaayo ku nneewulira y’ab’omu maka ge y’eruwa?

¹⁵ Afaayo ku nneewulira y’ab’omu maka ge. Yakuwa yakyoleka mu lujjudde nti ayagala nnyo Yesu. (Mat. 3:17) Yesu yakyoleka nti ayagala nnyo abagoberezi be okuyitira mu ebyo bye yakola ne bye yayogera, era nabo baakyoleka nti baali bamwagala nnyo. (Yok. 15:9, 12, 13; 21:16) Omutwe gw’amaka asobola okukiraga nti ayagala mukyala we n’abaana be okuyitira mu ebyo by’akola, gamba ng’okusomera awamu nabo Bayibuli. Ate era asaanidde okubategeeza nti abaagala, abasiima, era bwe kiba kituukirawo asaanidde okuboogerako obulungi mu maaso g’abalala.​—Nge. 31:28, 29.

16. Kiki ekirala omutwe gw’amaka ky’alina okukola, era ayinza atya obutagwa lubege?

¹⁶ Afaayo ku byetaago by’ab’omu maka ge eby’omubiri. Yakuwa yafaayo ku byetaago by’Abayisirayiri eby’omubiri ne bwe baali nga babonerezebwa olw’obujeemu. (Ma. 2:7; 29:5) Ate era afaayo ku byetaago byaffe eby’omubiri leero. (Mat. 6:31-33; 7:11) Yesu naye yaliisa abo abaali bamugoberera. (Mat. 14:17-20) Yabawonya n’endwadde. (Mat. 4:24) Okusobola okusanyusa Yakuwa, omutwe gw’amaka alina okufaayo ku byetaago by’ab’omu maka ge eby’omubiri. Naye alina obutagwa lubege. Tasaanidde kwemalira nnyo ku mulimu gw’akola okusobola okuyimirizaawo ab’omu maka ge n’alemererwa okufaayo ku byetaago by’ab’omu maka ge eby’omwoyo ne ku nneewulira yaabwe.

¹⁷ Abatendeka. Yakuwa atutendeka era atukangavvula tusobole okuganyulwa. (Beb. 12:7-9) Okufaananako Kitaawe, Yesu naye atendeka abo abali wansi w’obuyinza bwe mu ngeri ey’okwagala. (Yok. 15:14, 15) Wadde ng’anywerera ku kituufu, ayoleka ekisa. (Mat. 20:24-28) Akimanyi nti tetutuukiridde era nti tusobola okukola ensobi.​—Mat. 26:41.

¹⁸ Omutwe gw’amaka akoppa Yakuwa ne Yesu takyerabira nti ab’omu maka ge tebatuukiridde. ‘Tasunguwalira’ mukyala we oba baana be. (Bak. 3:19) Mu kifo ky’ekyo, akolera ku musingi oguli mu Abaggalatiya 6:1 n’afuba okubatereeza mu “mwoyo omukkakkamu” ng’akijjukira nti naye tatuukiridde. Okufaananako Yesu, akimanya nti engeri esingayo obulungi ey’okubayigirizaamu kwe kubateerawo eky’okulabirako ekirungi.​—1 Peet. 2:21.

²⁰ Omutwe gw’amaka omulungi aba akimanyi nti ekimu ku bintu ebisingayo obuzibu by’alina okukola kwe kusalawo ebintu ebiganyula ab’omu maka ge, era obuvunaanyizibwa obwo abutwala nga bukulu nnyo.

Mu kifo ky’ekyo, akolera ku bulagirizi bwa Yakuwa ng’alina by’asalawo.c (Nge. 2:6, 7) Mu ngeri eyo aba alowooza ku kuganyula abalala so si okwenoonyeza ebibye.​—Baf. 2:4.

21. Kiki kye tujja okulaba mu kitundu ekiddako?

²¹ Yakuwa yawa emitwe gy’amaka obuvunaanyizibwa obw’amaanyi era bavunaanyizibwa gy’ali ku ngeri gye batuukirizaamu obuvunaanyizibwa obwo. Naye omwami bw’afuba okukoppa Yakuwa ne Yesu, aba mutwe gwa maka mulungi. Era mukyala we bw’afuba okutuukiriza obuvunaanyizibwa bwe, obufumbo bubaamu essanyu. Omukyala asaanidde kutwala atya enteekateeka y’obukulembeze, era kusoomooza ki kw’ayolekagana nakwo? Ekitundu ekiddako kijja kuddamu ebibuuzo ebyo.
