Loku kufanana kahle nalabo labatenta shengatsi babantfwana beMbuso kodvwa babe bangatseli titselo letinhle.

(Mat. 13:30) Kodvwa lamabele langumfanekiso aletfwa njani endlini yaJehova lamuhla? Labo labavuniwe baletfwa ebandleni lebuKhristu lelisungulwe kabusha lapho batfola khona umusa waNkulunkulu kanye nesivikelo sakhe, nobe batfole umvuzo wasezulwini.
