Ngekhulu lokuthoma, isiqhema esincani, ‘abapostoli namadoda amadala’ zeJerusalema, bakhonza njengesihlopha esibusako, benzela loke ibandla lamaKrestu azesiweko iinqunto eziqakathekileko. (IZenzo 15:⁠2) Nabenza iinqunto abavumelana ngazo, bekumphumela wekulumiswano wokuthi uthini uMtlolo nokulinda iinqophiso zomoya kaZimu. (IZenzo 15:​25) Kusalandelwa indlela leyo nanamhlanjasi.

Sisetjenziswa nguZimu ukwenza intando yakhe. Abazalwana abazesiweko abakhonza eSihlopheni Esibusako banekareko edephileko eLizwini lakaZimu nelemuko elithe tjha endleleni yokudemba iindaba ezingokwenyama nezingokomoya. Bahlangana qobe veke ukucabangela iintlhogo zabazalwana ephasini mazombe. Njengekhulwini lokuthoma, banikela iinqophiso ezisekelwe eBhayibhilini kungaba ngeencwadi namkha ngababonisi abakhambako nabanye. Lokhu kwakha ubunye nokuzwana ebantwini bakaZimu. (IZenzo 16:​4, 5) ISihlopha Esibusako sidosa phambili ekulungiseleleni ukudla okungokomoya, sifake itjiseko emsebenzini wokutjhumayela ngoMbuso, begodu sitjheje nokubekwa kwabazalwana bona baqale iimthwalo yebandla.

Siyasilalela isiqophiso somoya kaZimu. ISihlopha Esibusako sanamhlanjesi sithembele kuMbusi Wendawo yoke, uJehova, neHlokweni yebandla uJesu bona sifumane ilayelo. (1 Korinte 11:⁠3; Efesu 5:​23) Amalungu waso akaziqali njeenkhulu ebantwini bakaZimu. Sona, kunye nawo woke amaKrestu azesiweko, ‘balandela iMvana [uJesu] nanyana kukuphi lapha iya khona.’ (ISambulo 14:⁠4) ISihlopha Esibusako sithokoza khulu nasisithandazelako ngomsebenzi esiwenzako.

• Bobani egade bakha isihlopha esibusako ngekhulu lokuthoma?

• ISihlopha Esibusako namhlanjesi silifuna njani ilayelo lakaZimu?

Ibizo lesiHebheru elithi, Bethel litjho “Indlu kaZimu.” (Genesisi 28:​17, 19) Ibizweli lizifanelekela kuhle izakhiwo zaboFakazi BakaJehova ezisetjenziselwa ukunqophisa nokusekela umsebenzi wokutjhumayela ephasini zombelele. ISihlopha Esibusako sikhonza emzimkhulu wephasini loke eNew York, e-⁠U.S.A., begodu lapho sinqophisa umsebenzi owenziwa ema-ofisini wegatja eenarheni ezinengi. Njengesiqhema, labo abakhonza endawenezi babizwa bona mndeni weBethel. Njengomndeni, bahlala begodu basebenza ndawonye, bathabela ukudla ndawonye, begodu bafunda iBhayibhili ndawonye ngobunye.​—⁠IRhalani 133:⁠1.

Labo abasebenza eBethel banomoya wokuzidela. Kwenye nenye iBethel, kunamadoda nabafazi abamaKrestu abazinikelele ukwenza intando kaZimu begodu bathuthukisa iinkareko zoMbuso isikhathi esizeleko. (Matewu 6:​33) Boke bathola indawo yokuhlala nokudla nemadlana ebasiza bona baqalane neendleko zabo zokuphila. Woke umuntu eBethel ufumana isabelo, kungaba se-ofisini, ngekhwitjhini, namkha ngelawini lokudlela. Abanye basebenza emnyangweni wokugadangisa abomagazini namkha iincwadi, ukuhlwengisa, endaweni yokuhlanza izambatho, ukulungisa, namkha benze ezinye izinto.

Yindawo emajadujadu esekela umsebenzi wokutjhumayela ngoMbuso. Umnqopho wawo woke amaBethel kukwenza iqiniso leBhayibhili lifumaneke ebantwini abanengi ngendlela okungakghoneka ngayo. Incwajana le isibonelo salokho. Yatlolwa ngaphasi kokunqophisa kweSihlopha Esibusako, yathunyelwa iinqhema ezinengi zokutjhugulula ephasini loke nge-elekthroniki, yagadangiswa ngobunengi emaBethel wokugadangisa, bese yathunyelwa emabandleni angaphezu kwe-100 000. Hlangana nayo yoke ikambiso le, iimndeni yeBethel inikela isizo eliqakathekileko emsebenzini orhaba ukuyidlula yoke​—⁠wokutjhumayela iindaba ezimnandi.​—⁠Markosi 13:⁠10.

• Bobani abakhonza eBethel, begodu ngiliphi ilungiselelo abenzelwa lona?

• Ngimuphi umsebenzi orhabako osekelwa ngiwo woke amaBethel?

Amalunga womndeni weBethel asebenza eemnyangweni ehlukahlukeneko, atlhogomela umsebenzi wokutjhumayela enarheni yinye namkha ezimbalwa. Angasebenza njengesiqhema esitjhugululako, ukugadangisa iincwadi, indawo ekubekwa kiyo iincwadi, ukurekhoda ama-CD nama-Video namtjhana ukutlhogomela ezinye izinto zendawo.

IKomidi Yegatja yongamela umsebenzi. ISihlopha Esibusako sikutjhiyela eKomidini Yegatja ukutjhejwa kwe-ofisi legatja ngalinye, okuyikomidi eyakhiwa badala abafanelekako abathathu namkha ngaphezulu. Ikomidi le iragela phambili ngobikela iSihlopha Esibusako ngetuthuko yomsebenzi owenziwa enarheni ngayinye ngaphasi kwegunya lekomidi neemraro engavela. Iimbiko enjalo isiza iSihlopha Esibusako siqunte bona ngiyiphi indaba okufuze icatjangelwe eencwadini ezilandelako, emihlanganweni yebandla nemihlanganweni yesifunda. Abajameli beSihlopha Esibusako babizwa bona babonisi bamagatja abathunyelwa bona bavakatjhele amagatja qobe begodu banikele amaKomidi wamaGatja isinqophiso ekutjhejeni izabelo zawo. (Iziyema 11:​14) Kuba nomhlangano okhethekileko onekulumo ebekwa mbonisi wamagatja bona akhuthaze abahlala esimini yegatja.

Kunikelwa isizo emabandleni wendawo. Abazalwana abanemithwalo yefanelo e-ofisini legatja baphasisa ukuhlelwa kwamabandla amatjha. Abazalwanaba banqophisa nomsebenzi wamaphayona, iinthunywa zevangeli, nababonisi besigodi abakhonza esimini yegatja. Bahlela imihlangano yesifunda neyesigodi, banqophisa ukwakhiwa kwamaWolo woMbuso amatjha, begodu bayaqiniseka bona iincwadi zithunyelwa emabandleni bona kutjhejwe iintlhogo zawo. Woke umsebenzi owenziwa e-ofisini legatja unesandla ekuhlelekeni komsebenzi wokutjhumayela.​—1 Korinte 14:​33, 40.

• AmaKomidi wamaGatja asisiza njani iSihlopha Esibusako?

• Ngimiphi imithwalo etjhejwa e-ofisini legatja?
