(Heb. 13:7) And Jesus set perfect example for you to follow. (1 Pet. 2:21) When you taking your time to study this example them, think about the good-good qualities you like about this men them.

⁵ Learn how to “think good . . . and continue to do it.” (Prov. 3:21) Any man who get sense, can think good-good before he make decision. So work hard to learn how to think good and continue to do it. Why? Because plenty young men them in the world today can follow their own ideas or allow their feeling to control them. (Prov. 7:7; 29:11) Also, television, movies, internet and social media can affect the way you can think and do things. But how you can learn to think the right way? First learn how Jehovah can feel and think, then think about why it good to do what he say. Then use the thing them you learn to help you make decisions that will make Jehovah happy. (Read Psalm 119:9.) If you learn how to think like this, it will really help you to be mature Christian. (Prov. 2:​11, 12; Heb. 5:14) Let talk about how having good thinking will benefit you in this two situation them: (1) when you dealing with sisters and (2) when you making decisions about what you will wear and how you will look.

⁶ Any man who learn how to think like Jehovah, will show respect for women. For example, maybe the young brother get interest in the sister, and nothing wrong with it. But if he not want marry her, he will not say or write or do anything that will make her to think that he want date her. (1 Tim. 5:​1, 2) If he dating the sister, he will not want spoil her good name by staying alone with her. But he will always get somebody there to be with them.—1 Cor. 6:18.

7. Ki pagɔi ɣa ɓɔ nu niinɛ niitiɛ va te ga zinaa ɣɛ le ga te deʋe vagɔ wo e vile maa ɣili ɓɔga velei va ta ta wũgi ɓɛtɛ la?

⁷ Another way young brother can show that he na learn to think the way Jehovah can think, that by the kind na clothes he can wear and the hairstyle he can cut. Most of the time, people who can design clothes and advertise them, not get respect for Jehovah. And they also can’t obey Jehovah law on man and woman business. So the clothes them they can design can be very tight or make man to look like woman. When young brother who learning to be mature Christian thinking about what to wear, he will think about what Jehovah want. He will also follow good example them in the congregation. He can ask his self this question them: ‘My decisions can show that I can think good and that I respect other people? My way of dressing can make it easy for other people to believe that I really serving God?’ (1 Cor. 10:​31-33; Titus 2:6) Young man who can think good, will get respect from his brother and sister them and Jehovah will be happy with him.

8. Zɛɓɛi ya ɓɔ nu niinɛ niitiɛ va te ga zinaa ga te ɣɛ numaa kuuwui ɣa yee la te ma?

⁸ Be somebody that people can depend on. Any young brother who people can rely on, can do all his assignment them good-good. (Luke 16:10) Let look at Jesus perfect example. Jesus never use to be don’t care person. But he use to do all the thing them that Jehovah ask him to do even if it was hard. He love people, especially his disciple them and he was even willing to die for them. (John 13:1) Young brothers, follow Jesus example and work hard to do any assignment you get. If you not too sure about how to do it, be humble and ask other mature brother them to help you. Don’t do your assignment like they forcing you. (Rom. 12:11) But try to finish your assignment and do it “for Jehovah and not for human being.” (Col. 3:23) Remember that you not perfect, so be humble and accept any mistakes you make.—Prov. 11:2.
