KASIN SIKA so para ed matunong a balon sistema na Dios, tan kasin satan so labay mon onsabi? Kasin sika so sumpa ed si Satanas, tan kasin labay mon mangangga so mundo to? Nayarin ikuan mo, On, ed saratan a tepet. Balet kasin satan so magenap? Wala so daan a balikas a saray kiwas so mansalitan mamaksil nen saray salita. No sika so manisia ed balon sistema na Dios, say nengneng na pangikukurang mo ed bilay mo so peteg a mamaneknek ed satan.—Mateo 7:21-23; 15:7, 8.
2. (a) Siopa so duaran katawan a pakapanserbian tayo? (b) Anto so mangipanengneng no siopa itayo aripen?
2 Say katuaan so, say dalan na bilay mo so nayarin makapaliket ed sakey lambengat diad duaran katawan. Balanglan lilingkoran mo si Jehova a Dios odino si Satanas a Diablo. Say prinsipyon naromog ed Biblia so ontulong ed sikatayon mangapresya ed saya. Kuanto: “Agyo ta amta a say pangipaparungtalan yo na inkasikayo ed siopaman bilang ariripen pian tuloken yo, sikayo so ariripen to lapud sikato so tutuloken yo?” (Roma 6:16) Siopa so tutuloken mo? Siopa linawa so gagawaen mo? Antokaman so ebat mo, no tutumboken mo so agmatunong iran dalan na mundo sika so agmanlilingkor ed tuan Dios, si Jehova.
MUNDO NEN SATANAS—ANTO’TAN?
3. (a) Siopa so ipapanengneng na Biblia a manuley na mundo? (b) Diad pikakasi, panon nen Jesus ya impanengneng so pandumaan na mundo tan saray babangatan to?
3 Tinawag nen Jesus si Satanas a “say manuley na sayan mundo.” Tan inkuan nen apostol Juan a “say mundo so mandukdukol ed pakayari na sakey a mauges.” (Juan 12:31; 1 Juan 5:19) Imanoen a diad pikakasi to ed Dios a si Jesus et agto insakup iray babangatan to bilang kabiangan na mundo nen Satanas. Inkuanto: “Pikasik ira [saray babangatan to]; pikasik, aliwan nipaakar ed mundo . . . Sikara so aliwan kabiangan na mundo, unong a siak so aliwan kabiangan na mundo.” (Juan 17:9, 16; 15:18, 19) Manlapud saya malinlinew a saray tuan Kristianos so nepeg a mansiansian biig ed mundo.
4. (a) Diad Juan 3:16, siopa so tutukoyen na balikas a “say mundo”? (b) Anto so “say mundo” a pangisianan na saray patumbok nen Kristo ed inkasikara?
4 Balet diad anto so tutukoyen nen Jesus sanen inkuanto “say mundo”? Diad Biblia say balikas a “say mundo” so no maminsan et basta kabaliksan to so katooan ed inkalapagan. Imbaki na Dios so Anak to pian iter to so bilay to a bilang dondon a para ed sayan mundo na katooan. (Juan 3:16) Ingen si Satanas so angorganisa ed kaslakan a katooan diad isusumpad Dios. Sirin say mundo nen Satanas et sayan organisadon sosyedad na totoo a biig odino walad paway na nanengneng a muyongan na Dios. Sikato so sayan mundo a nepeg na saray tuan Kristianos a kibiigan.—Santiago 1:27.
5. Anto so importantin kabiangan na mundo, tan panon a satan so nirepresenta ed Biblia?
5 Say mundo nen Satanas—organisadon sosyedad na totoo to—so tinibukel na nanduruman maapit iran nankakawingan a kabiangan. Sakey ya importantin kabiangan et say palson relihyon. Diad Biblia say palson relihyon so nipresenta a bilang “baleg a balangkantis,” odino patutot, ed ngaran a “Babilonia a Baleg.” Sikato so sankamundoan ya imperyo, a singa impanengneng na katuaan a sikato so “walaan na panarian diad saray arari na dalin.” (Apocalipsis 17:1, 5, 18) Balet anto so mamaneknek a say Babilonia a Baleg so sakey a relihyoson sankamundoan ya imperyo?
6, 7. (a) Anto so mamaneknek a say Babilonia a Baleg so sakey a relihyoson imperyo? (b) Antoy siglaotan na palson relihyon ed saray mapulitikan gobierno?
6 Lapud “saray arari na dalin” so nibagan ‘akilawanan’ ed sikato, say Babilonia a Baleg so agnayarin sakey a mapulitikan imperyo na mundo. Tan lapud “saray managbiahen managtagilako” ed dalin so ontalindeg ed arawi tan mannangis ed kadederal to, sikato so aliwan sakey a komersyon imperyo na mundo. (Apocalipsis 17:2; 18:15) Anggaman kuan, a sikato so peteg a sakey a relihyoson imperyo so impanengneng na balikas na Biblia a diad panamegley na “espiritistikon agamil to et amin na saray nasyones so apalikdo.”—Apocalipsis 18:23.
7 Say mamapaneknek met a say Babilonia a Baleg et sakey a relihyoson imperyo et say impirelasyonan to ed “maatap ya ayep.” Diad Biblia saratan ya ayep so mangirerepresenta ed saray mapulitikon gobierno. (Daniel 8:20, 21) Say Babilonia a Baleg so adeskribe a “manyudyurong ed tapew na eskarlatan-kolor ya atap ya ayep . . . a walaan na pitoran ulo tan samploran saklor.” Sasalien to sirin ya agamilen so impluensya ed sayan “atap ya ayep,” odino sankamundoan a gobierno. (Apocalipsis 17:3) Tan sikato so katuaan a diad interon awaran et say relihyon so nikames ed saray pulitika, a mabetbet a didiktaan toray gobierno ed gawaen da. Peteg ya inagamil to so “sakey a panarian ed saray arari na dalin.”—Apocalipsis 17:18.
8. Anto so sananey ya importantin kabiangan na mundo nen Satanas, tan panon so inkirepresenta ra ed Biblia?
8 Sarayan mapulitikan gobierno so anibukel na sananey ya importantin kabiangan na mundo nen Satanas. A singa naimano tayo la, sikara so nirepresenta ed Biblia a bilang ayayep. (Daniel 7:1-8, 17, 23) A sarayan inaayep a gobierno so angawat na pakayari ed si Satanas so nipanengneng ed sakey a pasingawey ya insulat nen apostol Juan: “Anengneng ko so sananey ya atap ya ayep a sinmakbit ed dayat, a walaan na samploran saklor tan pitoran ulo . . . Tan say dragon so angiter ed ayep na pakayari to.” (Apocalipsis 13:1, 2; 12:9) Say malaknab nin pamaneknek a sarayan panarian, odino gobierno, so kabiangan na mundo nen Satanas et say katuaan a si Satanas et tinukso toy Jesus diad impangiyopresi to ed sarayan panarian ed sikato. Saya so agkomon ginawa nen Satanas no aliwan sikato so manuley ed sikara.—Mateo 4:8, 9.
9. (a) Panon a say sananey a kabiangan na mundo nen Satanas so adeskribe ed Apocalipsis 18:11? (b) Anto so gawaen to tan iyalibansa to, a papaneknekan ton si Satanas so wala ed benegan to?
9 Ingen say sananey a manunan kabiangan na mundo nen Satanas et say maagum tan maruksan sistema na komersyo, ya atukoy ed Apocalipsis 18:11 a bilang “managbiahen managtagilako.” Sayan sistema na komersyo so mangiyaalibansa ed sinisiblet a pilalek diad totoo a mangegemtan na saray bengatlan pawawalaen to, anggamano nayarin sikara so agda nakaukolan tan mas magmaong ni no saratan so anggapo. Ontan met say maagum a sistema na komersyo so manlalakes na tagano ed saray simpenan balet ta papaulianan toray nilaksalaksan totoo a nanaerasan ed patey lapud ag-ira makabayar ed tagano. Diad biek a dapag, saray armas ed militar a makayarin maneral ed pamilya na too so napapawala tan nilalakon pantutuboan. Sirin say sistema na komersyo nen Satanas, dingan na palson relihyon tan saray mapulitikan gobierno, so mangiyaalibansa na kasibletan, krimen tan makapakebbiew iran bakal.
10, 11. (a) Anto so sananey a nengneng na mundo nen Satanas? (b) Antoran pasakbay na Biblia so wala a sumpad kilanlanor ed sayan nengneng?
10 Say organisadon sosyedad na too ed silong nen Satanas a Diablo so peteg a marelmeng tan abulok. Sikato so sumpad saray matunong a ganggan na Dios, tan napno na amin a nengneng na imoral iran gawa. Sirin say sananey a nengneng na mundo nen Satanas so nibagan saray malukak a panagbilay to, saray imoral a dalan to. Nisesengeg ed saya met namparan si apostol Pablo tan Pedro so amasakbay ed saray Kristiano a paliisan daray mauges a gawa na nasyones.—Efeso 2:1-3; 4:17-19; 1 Pedro 4:3, 4.
11 Indanet, met, nen apostol Juan so pankaukolan na saray Kristianos a manbantay sumpad mauges iran pilalek tan imoral a dalan na mundo. Insulat to: “Agyo aaroen so mundo odino saray bengatlan wala ed mundo. No siopaman et aroen to so mundo, say aro na Ama so andi ed sikato; lapud amin a bengatla ed mundo so—say pilalek na laman tan say pilalek na mata tan say mapangtan nengneng na panagbilay—so agnanlapud Ama, noagta nanlapud mundo.” (1 Juan 2:15, 16) Inkuan nen babangatan a Santiago a ‘no siopaman et kaliktan to so magmaliw a kaaro na mundo, gagawaen to so inkasikaton sakey a kabusol na Dios.’—Santiago 4:4.
NO PANON SO PAKAPALIIS ED PAGMALIW A KABIANGAN NA MUNDO
12, 13. (a) Panon so impangipanengneng nen Jesus a saray Kristianos so nepeg a wala ed mundo? (b) Panon a posibli so kiwala ed mundo balet ta aliwan kabiangan to?
12 Anggad wala so mundo nen Satanas, saray Kristianos so manayam ditan. Saya so impanengneng nen Jesus sanen nampikasi ed si Ama to: “Pikasik ed sika, ya agmora eekalen ed mundo.” Balet insan inyarum nen Jesus nipaakar ed saray patumbok to: “Sikara so aliwan kabiangan na mundo.” (Juan 17:15, 16) Panon a posibli so panayam ed mundo nen Satanas balet siansian aliwan kabiangan to?
13 Bueno, sika so manbibilay ed limog na totoon manitibukel na organisadon sosyedad na totoo natan. Sarayan totoo so angisakup ed saray managlawan, maagum, tan arum niran manggagawa na karelmengan. Nayarin sika so mantatrabahon kaibam ira, kaeskuelaan mo ra, mirurungo ka ed sikara diad panangan, tan mibibiang ed arum iran aktibidades da. (1 Corinto 5:9, 10) Sikara ni ingen so aaroen mo, a singa ginawa na Dios. (Juan 3:16) Balet say sakey a tuan Kristiano so agmangaro ed karelmengan a gagawaen na totoo. Agto aaligen iray awawey da, kiwakiwas da odino kalat da ed bilay. Sikato so agmibabali ed abulok a relihyon tan pulitika ra. Tan manwarin sikato so mabetbet a mantatrabaho ed komersyon mundo diad pananap na pambilay, sikato so agmibabali ed saray sinasaol a gawa na negosyo; nisay manunan kalat to ed bilay so panangamor ed materyal iran bengatla. Lapud sikato so para ed balon sistema na Dios, papaliisan to so mauges a pililimog ed saraman so manbibilay a para ed mundo nen Satanas. (1 Corinto 15:33; Salmo 1:1; 26:3-6, 9, 10) Bilang resulta, sikato so wala ed mundo nen Satanas balet siansian aliwan kabiangan to.
14. No sika so para ed balon sistema na Dios, anto so ganggan na Biblia a tuloken mo?
14 Kumusta ka ey? Kasin labay mo so magmaliw a kabiangan na mundo nen Satanas? Odino kasin sika so para ed balon sistema na Dios? No sika so para ed balon sistema na Dios, isian mo so inkasika ed mundo, a pati say palson relihyon to. Talinengen mo so ganggan: “Ompaway ka ed sikato [Babilonia a Baleg], baley ko.” (Apocalipsis 18:4) Anggaman kuan, say ipaway ed Babilonia a Baleg, say sankamundoan ya imperyo na palson relihyon, so mangisakup ed mas nen say basta pamultot na koneksion ed saray palson relihyoson muyongan. Kabaliksan to met so agpibabali ed saray relihyoson selebrasyon na mundo.—2 Corinto 6:14-18.
15. (a) Imbes ya inkianak nen Jesus, anto so niganggan ed saray Kristianos a selebraan? (b) Anto so mangipanengneng a si Jesus so agnayarin nianak ed ambetel a panaon? (c) Akin a say petsan Disyembre 25 so pinilin agew a panselebra ed inkianak nen Jesus?
15 Say Krismas so sakey a prominentin relihyoson piesta natan. Balet ipapanengneng na awaran ya aliwan sikato so selebrasyon a ginawa na saray inmunan Kristianos. Imbaga nen Jesus ed saray patumbok to a selebraan da so pakanodnonotan na impatey to, ya aliwan say inkianak to. (1 Corinto 11:24-26) Say katuaan so, say Disyembre 25 so aliwan petsa na inkianak nen Jesus. Agnayarin diad saman, lapud ipapanengneng na Biblia a diad panaon na inkianak to et saray managpastol so wala ni ed kaumaan diad labi. Sikara komon so andid’man ed ambetel, mauran a panaon na betel. (Lucas 2:8-12) Diad tua say Disyembre 25 so pinilin petsa a panselebra ed inkianak nen Jesus lapud, a singa impaliwawa na The World Book Encyclopedia: “Saray totoo ed Roma so manseselebra la ed satan a bilang say Piesta nen Saturno, a seselebraan da so inkianak na agew.”
16. (a) Anton arum a prominentin relihyoson piesta so walaan na aliwan-Kristianon gapowan? (b) Nisesengeg ed antoran rason a saray tuan Kristianos so agmanselebra ed Krismas tan Pasko na Inkioli?
16 Say Pasko na Inkioli (Easter) so sananey a prominentin relihyoson piesta. Say Semana Santa ed arum iran bansa ed Latin-America so mipadpara. Balet say Pasko na Inkioli (Easter) so agmet sinelebraan na saray inmunan Kristianos. Satan, met, so walaan na gapoan ed saray aliwan-Kristianon selebrasyon. Inkuan na The Encyclopœdia Britannica: “Anggapo so pamatnagan ed impanselebra na piesta na Pasko na Inkioli ed Balon Sipan.” Ingen kasin peteg a makabaliksan a say Krismas tan say Pasko na Inkioli so aliwa ran Kristianon selebrasyon noagta peteg a walaan na gapowan ed saray managdayew ed palson dirios? Impasakbay nen apostol Pablo so sumpad agpangilaok na tua ed tila, a kuanton anggan “say melag a lebadura et palebagen to so interon masa.” (Galacia 5:9) Imbaga to ed saray arum ya inmunan Kristianos a mauges ed sikara so panselebra ed saray agew a sinumpal ed silong na ganggan nen Moises balet ta sikara la so inekal na Dios a para ed saray Kristianos. (Galacia 4:10, 11) Agaylan lalon importante ed saray tuan Kristianos natan so iyarawi ed saray piesta ya agbalot imbaga na Dios a nepeg a selebraan tan satan so nanlapud palson relihyon!
