Abantu abanengi balisile ukuya emasondweni ngombana abazifumani iimpendulo zeembuzo eqakathekileko namkha induduzo. Ngalokho, kubayini kufuze uhlanganyele emihlanganweni ehlelwe boFakazi BakaJehova? Khuyini ozokufumana lapho?

Ithabo lokuba hlangana nabantu abathandanako nabakhathalelanako. Ekhulwini lokuthoma, amaKrestu bekahlelelwe ukuhlangana ndawonye emabandleni, begodu bekaba nemhlangano bona akhulekele uZimu, afunde iiMtlolo, nokobana akhuthazane. (Hebheru 10:​24, 25) Ukubuthana endaweni enethando, kwabenza bazizwa bahlangana nabangani beqiniso​—⁠abazalwana abangokomoya. (2 Tesalonika 1:⁠3; 3 Jwanisi 14) Silandela isibonelo sangekhulu lokuthoma begodu sifumana ithabo elifanako.

Inzuzo yokufunda indlela yokusebenzisa iinkambisolawulo zeBhayibhili. Njengombana bekuliqiniso ngeenkhathini zeBhayibhili, amadoda, abafazi, nabentwana bebahlangana ndawonye. Nanamhlanje, abafundisi abafanelekako basebenzisa iBhayibhili bona basisize sizwisise indlela yokusebenzisa iinkambisolawulo ekuphileni kwethu kwaqobe. (Duteronomi 31:​12; Nehemiya 8:⁠8) Boke bangahlanganyela ngokuphendula ekulumiswaneni nekuvumeni iingoma, okusivumela sizwakalise ithemba lethu lobuKrestu.​—⁠Hebheru 10:⁠23.

Isibusiso sokuqiniswa kwekholo lakho kuZimu. Umpostoli uPowula watjela elinye ibandla langesikhathi sakhe: “Ngiyanihlulukela kwamambala ngikhanukela ukuzonibona, . . . ze [sikhuthazane phakathi kwethu, omunye nomunye ngekholo lomunye, kokubili lenu nelami].” (Roma 1:​11, 12) Ukuhlanganyela qobe eemhlanganweni yebandla nesikholwa nabo kuqinisa ikholo lethu begodu kusenza sifune nokuphila ngendlela yobuKrestu.

Kubayini ungamukeli isimemwesi bona uzokuhlanganyela nathi imihlangano elandelako begodu uzibonele wena mathupha izintwezi? Uzokwamukelwa ngokufuthumeleko. Yoke iimhlangano isimahla​—⁠akuthathwa kongozelo.

• Imihlangano yethu yebandla ilandela siphi sibonelo?

• Singazuza njani ekubeni khona emihlanganweni le?

Ngitjho nanyana kungabizela bona sikhambe emahlathini namkha siqalane nobujamo obumbi bezulu, sihlanganyela qobe emihlanganweni yethu yobuKrestu. Naphezu kweentjhijilo zepilo nokudinwa ngemva kokusebenza, kubayini aboFakazi BakaJehova benza umzamo wokuzihlanganisa nabakholwa nabo?

Kuzuzisa ipilo yethu. UPowula wathi, “asitjhejaneni” akhuluma ngalabo esizihlanganisa nabo eemhlanganweni yebandla. (Hebheru 10:​24) Lokhu kutjho bona “sicabanga ngokudephileko,” okutjho ukwazana. Ngalokho amezwi kaPowula asikhuthaza bona sikhathalele abanye. Ngokwazi eminye iimndeni yamaKrestu, sifumana bona abanye baqalana ngokuphumelelako neentjhitjhilo ezifanako nezethu begodu bangasisiza nathi siphumelele.

Kuqinisa ubuhlobo bethu bobungani. Emihlanganweni, sibuthana ndawonye, ingasi nabangani, kodwana nesiqhema sabangani. Kezinye iinkhathi, sibanesikhathi sindawonye kwezokuzithabisa ezikarisako. Kuzuzisa ngani ukuzihlanganisokhu? Sifunda ukwamukela omunye nomunye khudlwana, begodu lokho kuqinisa ithando lethu. Ngalokho, nengabe abangani bethu baqalana neemraro, siyabasiza ngombana ubungani obuqinileko busuke sebakhekile. (Iziyema 17:​17) Ngokuzihlanganisa nabo boke emhlanganweni yebandla, sitjengisa bona “sisizana ngomoya munye.”​—⁠1 Korinte 12:​25, 26.

Sikukhuthaza bona ukhethe abangani abenza intando kaZimu. Abangani abanjalo uzobafumana kiboFakazi BakaJehova. Sibawa ungavumeli litho bona likuliye ekuzihlanganiseni nathi.

Ifundo yakhona idzimelele eBhayibhilini begodu iyasebenza. Ngepela veke, ibandla ngalinye liyahlangana bona lizokulalela ikulumo yeBhayibhili yemizuzu ema-30, yokobana emaphilwenethu iMtlolo ihlobana njani nesikhathi esiphila kiso. Soke sikhuthazwa bona silandelele emaBhayibhilenethu. Ngemva kwekulumo, kune-Sifundo ‘Se-Sithalasokulinda’ okukulapho amalungu webandla aba nengcenye yokunikela iimpendulo ezisekelwe e-⁠Sithalenisokulinda. Ikulumiswano le isisiza bona sisebenzise iinkambisolawulo zeBhayibhili emaphilwenethu. Umagazini ofanako lo usetjenziswa nakwamanye amabandla angaphezu kwe-100 000 ephasini mazombe.

Sisizwa bona sithuthukise amakghono wethu. Godu sihlangana ndawonye ntambama phakathi neveke bona sibe neemhlangano emithathu.

Bese ngemizuzu ema-30 kuba Sikolo Sekonzo Sezulwini esithoma ngekulumiswano yamaphuzu weBhayibhili ibandla eliwalungiselele kusese ngaphambili. Abafundi abanengcenye esikolwenesi babeka iinkulumo ezifitjhani. Umragi wesikolo uzokunikela iseluleko ukwenzela bona asisize sithuthukise amakghono wethu wokufunda nokukhuluma.
