Anachita zimenezi n’cholinga choti munthu aliyense amene akuthawa azifikako mosavuta n’kutetezeka. (Num. 35:11-14) Misewu yopita kumizinda imeneyi inkalambulidwa bwinobwino. (Deut. 19:3) Malinga ndi zimene olemba mbiri ya Ayuda amanena, pankakhala zikwangwani zosonyeza kumene munthu angalowere kuti akafike kumzinda wothawirako. Kukhala ndi mizinda yothawirako kunkathandiza kuti munthu amene wapha mnzake mwangozi asathawire kudziko lachilendo kumene akhoza kuyesedwa kuti ayambe kulambira milungu yonyenga.

Tinganene kuti tiyenera kukonza mtima wathu kuti tisamavutike kukhululukira anthu komanso anthu asamavutike kupempha kuti tiwakhululukire. Tizikhala ofulumira kuchitira ena chifundo, osati ofulumira kukhumudwa.​—Mlal. 7:8, 9.

Koma m’malo mochita zimenezi, anachititsa kuti anthu asamatsatire “Mtumiki Wamkulu wa moyo,” koma aziyenda pamsewu wopita kukawonongedwa.

Koma sikuti Paulo ankalalikira chifukwa chongoona kuti ndi udindo wake kapena poopa kukhala ndi mlandu. Ankachita zimenezi chifukwa ankakonda anthu ndipo ankaona kuti moyo wawo ndi wamtengo wapatali.

Choncho pitani mukaphunzire tanthauzo la mawu akuti, ‘Ndikufuna chifundo, osati nsembe.’ Chifukwa ine sindinabwere kudzaitana anthu olungama, koma ochimwa.” (Mat. 9:9-13) Kodi pamenepa tinganene kuti Yesu ankalekerera anthu ochimwa? Ayi sitingatero. Tisaiwale kuti Yesu akamalalikira ankauzanso anthu ochimwa kuti alape. (Mat. 4:17) Koma iye anazindikira kuti anthu ena amene anali ‘okhometsa misonkho komanso ochimwa’ anali ndi mtima wofuna kusintha. Sikuti kunyumba ya Mateyu anthuwo anangopitira kukadya, chifukwa Baibulo limasonyeza kuti ena mwa anthuwo ankafuna kutsatira Yesu.

Ngati tchimolo lachitikadi, ayenera kuthandiza munthuyo motsatira malangizo a m’Malemba.

Choyamba, muyenera kupempha Mulungu kuti akuthandizeni kuchita zinthu mwanzeru ndiponso mozindikira. (1 Maf. 3:9) Chachiwiri, muyenera kufufuza m’Mawu a Mulungu komanso mabuku amene kapolo wokhulupirika watipatsa. Zimenezi zingakuthandizeni kuzindikira ngati munthuyo ali ndi “chisoni cha dziko” kapena walapadi ndipo ali ndi “chisoni mogwirizana ndi chifuniro cha Mulungu.” (2 Akor. 7:10, 11) Muyenera kuona mmene Baibulo limafotokozera anthu olapa ndiponso amene sanalape. Onani mmene limafotokozera mtima wawo, maganizo awo komanso khalidwe lawo.

¹⁸ Pomaliza, muyenera kuganizira zinthu zonse zokhudza munthuyo. Muziganizira zimene zachitika pa moyo wake, zolinga zake komanso zimene sangakwanitse kuchita.

Adzaweruza mwachilungamo anthu onyozeka ndipo adzadzudzula anthu mowongoka mtima, pothandiza ofatsa a padziko lapansi.” (Yes. 11:3, 4) Popeza akulu amatsogoleredwa ndi Yesu, iye adzawathandiza kuti aziweruza mmene iye amaweruzira. (Mat. 18:18-20) Timayamikira kwambiri kuti tili ndi akulu achikondi amene amayesetsa kuchita zimenezi. Timathokozanso kwambiri zonse zimene amachita polimbikitsa chifundo ndi chilungamo mumpingo.

Koma Yehova sasintha, choncho amaonabe kuti chilungamo ndi chifundo ndi makhalidwe ofunika kwambiri. Kunena zoona, ndi mwayi waukulu kwambiri kulambira Mulungu amene anatilenga m’chifaniziro chake, amene tikhoza kumutsanzira komanso amene tikhoza kuthawira kwa iye.
