² Ngemuva kwekutsi umuntfu afundze ngaJehova futsi ancume kubhajatiswa, buhlobo bakhe naNkulunkulu buchubeka bukhula. Uba nemgomo wekuba ngumKhristu lovutsiwe. Lokuvutfwa lesikhuluma ngako akusho kubamdzala ngeminyaka. Kodvwa kusho kuba nebudlelwane lobuhle naJehova. Umphostoli Pawula abefuna kutsi emaKhristu ase-Efesu abe bantfu labavutsiwe. Wawakhutsata kutsi abenebunye ekukholweni futsi achubeke afundza ngaJesu kute abe ‘njengemadvodza lakhule ngalokwenele, futsi avutfwe ngelizinga leliphelele njengaKhristu.’​—Efesu 4:13.

3. Libandla lase-Efesu lifanana njani nebantfu baJehova lamuhla?

³ Libandla lase-Efesu bese lineminyaka likhona ngalesikhatsi Pawula alibhalela incwadzi. Labanyenti kulelibandla besebavele banesikhatsi lesidze bangemaKhristu lavutsiwe. Nobe kunjalo, bekakhona lamanye labekasadzinga kucinisa buhlobo bawo naJehova. Nalamuhla, bazalwane nabodzadze labanyenti sebakhonte Jehova sikhatsi lesidze futsi solo bangemaKhristu lavutsiwe. Kodvwa labanye ebandleni basengakafinyeleli kulelo zinga. Sibonelo saloko kutsi tinkhulungwane tebantfu tiyabhajatiswa umnyaka nemnyaka, ngako-ke labanye kubo kusadzingeka kutsi bavutfwe. Kutsiwani ngawe?​—Kholose 2:6, 7.

⁵ UmKhristu lovutsiwe ulingisa Jesu futsi ulandzela “tinyatselo takhe edvute.” (1 Phetro 2:21) Jesu watsi kubaluleke kakhulu kutsi umuntfu atsandze Jehova ngenhlitiyo yakhe yonkhe, umphefumulo nengcondvo yakhe yonkhe futsi atsandze makhelwane wakhe njengobe atitsandza yena. (Matewu 22:37-39) UmKhristu lovutsiwe wenta konkhe lokusemandleni akhe kute awulalele lomyalo. Indlela laphila ngayo iyakhombisa kutsi bubaluleke kakhulu buhlobo bakhe naJehova kanye nelutsandvo lolujulile lanalo ngalabanye.
