Go Lemoga Dikgang
Ntlo E E Kgaoganeng
Jesu o ne a re “ntlo le eona ha e ikgaogantse,” ga e kake ya ema. (Mareko 3:25) Ke boemo joo United Church ya Canada, ebong kereke e kgolo go di leta tsotlhe ya Porotesetanta ya morale oo, e iphitlhelang e le mo go jone mabapi le kgang ya bosodoma le go tlhomamisiwa ga banna le basadi ba basodoma jaaka baruti.
Tshwetso eo e neng ya dirwa ke General Council ya bo-32 ya United Church ya Canada e letlelela batho bao ba dirang bosodoma gore ba direle jaaka baruti. Go ya ka The Globe and Mail, ebong lekwalo-dikgang la Canada, tshwetso eo e tlhalosa gore go sa kgathalesege mokgwa wa bone wa go tlhakanela dikobo, bat ho bape lela “bao ba ipolelang gore ba dumela mo go Jesu Keresete ebile ba bolela gore ba a Mo utlwa ba a amogelwa go nna maloko a a tletseng a Kereke eo,” ebile “maloko otlhe a Kereke a a tshwanelega go akanyediwa jaaka badihedi ba ba tlhomamisitsweng.” Pego e e nang le ditsebe di le 125 ya United Church e a re: “Go na le meluta e e larologaneng ya mekgwa ya go tlhakanela dikobo: wa bosodoma, wa go tlhakanela dikobo ka tsela ya bosodoma le jaaka monna le mosadi, wa monna le mosadi. Eno e tshwanetse ya lejwa e le ya tlholego lela ebile e le mpho e e tswang kwa Modimong.”
Globe la e ne e akgela malebana le tshwetso e e dirilweng ke kereke eo ya go amogela basodoma gore e nne baruti, e ne ya tlhalosa gore “kgang-kgolo e ne e le go lalola ga kereke eo.” Pego e senola gore, la esale ka 1972, kereke eo e ntse e latlhegelwa ke maloko a yone go sa kgaotse mme ebile e mo bothateng jwa madi. Ka ntlhayang? Moruti John Tweedie o tsopola “go nna batho ba tswa ka bontsi mo kerekeng eo ka metlha ereka ba bona e ntse e katogela kgakala le medi ya yone ya Bokeresete.” “Ka ntlha ya moo,” The Post ya Canada e bega jalo, “lebaka la go bo ba amogela dilo tsa go nna jalo tse di jaaka bosodoma, go tlhakanela dikobo kwantle ga lenyalo, go senya mpa fa o kopiwa go dira jalo, le manyalo a a senyegang ke ka go bo ba batla go gogela basha.”
Lefa go le jalo, a go utlwa Keresete go letlelela gore melao-metheo ya Bibela e tlolwe? Phapaanong le seno, Leloko la Modimo le tlhalosa jaana ka phepalalo: “Lo se ka lwa tsietsega; batho ba ba sa itshwareng sentle. . . basodoma . . . ga go bape mo go bone bao ba tla ruang Bogosi jwa Modimo.”—1 Bakorintha 6:9, 10, Today’s English Version.
Go Dirisa Thupa
“Tlogela go Dirisa Thupa, mme o Bone Ditlamorago tsa Gone” e ne e le setlhogo sa kgang nngwe e e tlhagang go The Natal Mercury, ebong lekwalo-dikgang la Afrika Borwa, leo le neng le ngongoregela tshekamelo ya morago jaana ya go sa tlhole go otlhaiwa bañ a ka thupa kwa gae le kwa sekolong. Ke mang yo o ikarabelelang mo boikutlong jono jo bo letogileng male bañ a le go betsa? Moperofesara Smythe, ebong motlhankela wa tsa pholo ya bañ a kwa Unibesithing ya Natala, mo Alrika Borwa, o baya baitseanape ba thuta-tlhaloganyo ya ngwana molato ka tlhamalalo. “Ka gale fa motho a batlisisa ka moo ba ikutlwang ka gone mo kgannyeng eno,” Smythe o tlhalosa jalo, “o fitlhela gore phetogo eno ya boikutlo e simolola le thuto ya motheo ya baitseanape jwa go ithuta tlhaloganyo. Ba simolotse ba gana gotlhelele gore bana ba bidiwe ka tsela le la e ka nna ele, mme morago ga moo fa ba gakgamadiwa ke ditlamorago tsa go sa otlhaye tseo di nnang gone ka ntlha ya thuto ya gore ba seke ba swabisiwa le gore ba seke ba kganelwa go dira sepe.”
Smythe o buelela gore go nne le tekatekanyo. “Boitaolo jo bo leteletseng bo maswe lei a jaaka go atlhaya go let a tekanyo go ntse,” o ne a tlhalosa jalo, “mme ntlha ya gore ngwana o siamisiwa bonolo la a otlhaiwa thata go na le la a sa otlhaiwe ka tshwanelo e tshegetsa lebaka la gore o otlhaye la o belaela.” Moporolesara yoo o otlelela gore boikaelelo jwa go otlhaya ka thupa e tshwanetse ya nna go nna kamego e e lorato ka itekanelo ya ngwana ya gone jaanong le ya mo isagweng.
Kgakololo e e ntseng jalo ga e ntsha mme ba boela mo kaelong eno e e sekeng e losa ya Bibela: “Eo o rèkègèlañ thupa o ila morwawè: me eo o mo ratañ, o tla a mo oatlhaee go sa le galè.”—Diane 13:24; bona gape Diane 23:13, 14.
A Go Betšha Ga Se Boleo?
Kereke nngwe ya Roma Katoliki bosheng jaana e ne ya nna setheo sa ntlha sa bodumedi kwa Wisconsin, U.S.A., seo se neng sa dira kopo eo mo go yone ba kopang go newa tetla ya go rekisa dithekete tsa lottery, go bega jalo The Sheboygan Press. Lemororo go rekisa go no go tlhalosiwa e le boiteko jwa go “oketsa” dikoleke tsa beke le beke, Press e tlhalosa gore lebaka la konokono la go rekisiwa gono go go buelelwang ga dithekete tsa lottery “ke go oketsa pale ya batho ba ba nnang gone kwa metshamekong ya yone ya bingo.” Go begiwa gore kereke eo e set se e tsamaisa metshameko ya bingo eo e dirang dipoelo tse di “tlogang ka R2 000 go ya go R2 500” bosigo bongwe le bongwe.
Fa moruti wa kereke eno ebong Robert Fleishman a ne a bodiwa gore a go betšha ruri-ruri ke go dira boleo, o ne a araba ka go re: “Ga ke itse.” Lemororo a ne a dumalana gore lebaka la go bo kereke e etleetsa bingo kana go rekisiwa ga dithekete tsa lottery “ke selo se se sa amaneng go le kalo le pitso ya rona ka kakaretso ya semoya,” o ne a oketsa ka go re “la ba sa tle mono, ba tla ya gongwe go sele” go dirisa madi a bone gone.
A moeteledipele wa bodumedi yo o ipitsang gore ke molatedi wa ga Keresete o tshwanetse a etleetsa go betsha? Legoka! Go betsha lela e ka nna ga moluta ole lela go ikuela mo go e nngwe ya dinonolo tse di maswe thata mo bathong—ebong bogagapa. Bao ba go etleetsang ba rotloetsa bat ho gore ba dumele gore go siame go bona poele ka dilo tseo di latlhegelang batho ba bangwe. Lela go le jalo, Leloko la Modimo le le tlhotlheleditsweng le tlhalosa ka papamalo gore batho ba ba bogagapa ga ba kitla ba rua Bogosi jwa Modimo.—1 Bakorintha 6:9, 10; Baefesia 4:19; 5:3.
