JAPTA 4
?Hu Ya Jisas Kraes?
1, 2. (1) Sipos yu save nem blong sam man, ?i min se yu save gud olgeta? Eksplenem. (2) ?Ol man oli gat wanem tingting long Jisas?
I GAT plante impoten man long wol. Maet yu save nem blong sam long olgeta. Be hemia i no min se yu save gud olgeta. Ating yu no save evri samting long laef blong olgeta, mo yu no save se oli wanem kaen man.
2 Plante man tede oli save nem blong Jisas Kraes we i laef bitim 2,000 yia bifo. Be bighaf blong olgeta oli no save se Jisas i wanem kaen man. Samfala oli talem se hem i wan gudfala man nomo, sam oli talem se hem i wan profet, mo sam narafala oli ting se hem i God. ?Wanem tingting blong yu?—Yu luk Ol Not 12.
3. ?From wanem i impoten blong save Jehova mo Jisas Kraes?
3 I impoten blong save trutok long saed blong Jisas. ?From wanem? Baebol i talem se: “Laef ya we i no save finis, hemia se man i gohed blong save yu we yu nomo yu tru God, mo i save Jisas Kraes we yu yu sanem hem i kam.” (Jon 17:3) Sipos yu save trutok long saed blong Jehova mo Jisas, yu save laef blong olwe long paradaes long wol. (Jon 14:6) Mo tu, sipos yu save Jisas, hemia bambae i givhan long yu naoia. Hem i soemaot nambawan eksampol, blong yumi folem long laef blong yumi mo long fasin we yumi mekem long ol narafala. (Jon 13:34, 35) Long Japta 1, yumi lanem trutok long saed blong God. Naoia, bambae yumi tokbaot samting we Baebol i tijim long saed blong Jisas.
“!MIFALA I FAENEM MESAEA!”
4. ?Tufala tok ya “Mesaea” mo “Kraes” i minim wanem?
4 Plante yia bifo we Jisas i bon, Baebol i talemaot promes blong Jehova blong sanem Mesaea no Kraes i kam. Tok ya “Mesaea” i kamaot long Hibru lanwis, mo tok ya “Kraes” i kamaot long Grik. Tufala tok ya i minim “jusumaot.” Jisas i “Mesaea” no “Kraes” from we God i jusumaot hem blong i mekem wan impoten wok. Hem bambae i mekem ol promes blong God oli kamtru.
5. ?Ol disaepol blong Jisas oli bilif se hem i Mesaea?
5 Ol disaepol blong Jisas oli bilif strong se hem i Mesaea we God i promes blong sanem. (Jon 1:41) Saemon Pita i talem long Jisas se: “Yu yu Kraes.” (Matiu 16:16) Naoia, bambae yumi tokbaot olsem wanem yumi tu, yumi save bilif strong se Jisas i Mesaea.
6. ?Olsem wanem Jehova i givhan long ol man we oli gat tingting daon, blong oli luksave Mesaea?
6 Longtaem bifo we Jisas i bon, ol profet blong God oli raetemdaon plante save we bambae i givhan long ol man blong oli luksave Mesaea. ?Save ya bambae i givhan olsem wanem? Sipos wan fren i askem long yu, blong yu go karem wan man long epot we yu neva luk hem bifo. Sipos fren ya i talem plante samting long saed blong man ya, bambae yu luksave hem. Long sem fasin, Jehova i yusum ol profet blong talemaot plante samting we Mesaea bambae i mekem, mo samting we bambae i hapen long hem. Taem ol profet tok ya oli kamtru, oli givhan long ol man we oli gat tingting daon, blong oli luksave se Jisas i Mesaea.
7. Yu tokbaot tu profet tok we i soemaot se Jisas i Mesaea.
7 Bambae yumi tokbaot tu profet tok. Faswan, hemia tok we profet Maeka i talemaot 700 yia bifo we Jisas i bon, se Jisas bambae i bon long smol taon ya Betlehem. (Maeka 5:2) !Mo hemia nao ples we Jisas i bon long hem! (Matiu 2:1, 3-9) Sekenwan, hemia tok we profet Daniel i talemaot, se Mesaea bambae i kamtru long yia 29. (Daniel 9:25) I gat plante narafala profet tok tu, we oli soemaot klia se Jisas nao i Mesaea we God i promes blong sanem.—Yu luk Ol Not 13.
8, 9. Taem Jisas i baptaes, ?wanem i soemaot se hem i Mesaea?
8 Jehova i mekem wan samting we i soemaot klia se Jisas i Mesaea. Hem i promes blong givim wan saen long Jon Baptaes blong soemaot Mesaea long hem. Jon i luk saen ya taem hem i baptaesem Jisas long Jodan Reva long yia 29. Baebol i tokbaot samting ya, i se: “Afta we Jisas i baptaes, wantaem nomo hem i kamaot long wota, mo heven i open nao hem i luk spirit blong God i kamdaon long Jisas olsem wan sotleg. Mo tu, wan voes i kamaot long heven, i talem se: ‘Hemia Pikinini blong mi. Mi mi lavem hem tumas, mo mi glad long hem.’” (Matiu 3:16, 17) Taem Jon i luk saen ya mo i harem voes we i kamaot long heven, hem i save se Jisas nao i Mesaea. (Jon 1:32-34) Long dei ya we Jehova i mekem tabu spirit i kamdaon long Jisas, hem i kam Mesaea, no Man ya we God i jusumaot blong i kam Lida mo King.—Aesea 55:4.
9 Ol profet tok blong Baebol, ol tok we Jehova i talem, mo saen we God i givim taem Jisas i baptaes, trifala samting ya i pruvum se Jisas i Mesaea. ?Be Jisas i kam wea, mo hem i wanem kaen man? Bambae yumi luk samting we Baebol i talem.
?JISAS I KAM WEA?
10. ?Fastaem Jisas i laef wea?
10 Baebol i tijim se Jisas i laef longtaem long heven bifo we i kam long wol. Maeka i talem se Mesaea i stat “bifo we bifo olgeta.” (Maeka 5:2, NW) Jisas hem wan i talem plante taem, se hem i laef long heven bifo we i kamdaon long wol. (Ridim Jon 3:13; 6:38, 62; 17:4, 5.) Taswe, Jisas i fren gud wetem Jehova bifo we i kamdaon long wol.
11. ?From wanem Jehova i lavem Jisas tumas?
11 Jehova i lavem Jisas tumas. ?From wanem? From we hem i mekem Jisas fastaem long ol narafala samting. Taswe, Baebol i talem se Jisas i “fasbon blong olgeta samting we God i mekem.” * (Kolosi 1:15) Mo tu, Jehova i lavem Jisas from we hem nomo i wokem Jisas, i no gat wan narafala man we i givhan long hem. Taswe Baebol i talem se Jisas i wan pikinini nomo we God i gat. (Jon 3:16) Ol narafala samting, Jisas nomo i givhan long Jehova blong wokem. (Kolosi 1:16) Mo tu, Jisas nomo we Baebol i singaot hem se “Tok ya,” from we Jehova i yusum hem blong talemaot ol tok blong hem long ol enjel mo ol man.—Jon 1:14.
12. ?Olsem wanem yumi save se Jisas mo God tufala i no sem man?
12 Sam man oli bilif se Jisas mo God, tufala i sem man nomo. Be Baebol i no talem olsem. Baebol i talem se Jehova i wokem Jisas, i min se Jisas i gat stat blong hem. Be i no gat wan man we i wokem Jehova, taswe i no gat stat blong hem. Hem nomo i wokem olgeta samting. (Ol Sam 90:2) Jisas, Pikinini blong God, i neva traem blong kam olsem God. Baebol i talem klia se Papa i hae moa long Pikinini blong hem. (Ridim Jon 14:28; 1 Korin 11:3) Jehova nomo i “gat olgeta paoa.” (Jenesis 17:1) I no gat wan narafala man long heven mo wol we i gat bigfala paoa olsem hem.—Yu luk Ol Not 14.
13. ?From wanem Baebol i talem se Jisas i “pija blong God ya we yumi no save luk”?
13 Jehova mo Pikinini blong hem Jisas, tufala i wok tugeta blong plante milian yia, bifo we tufala i wokem heven mo wol. !Tufala i lavlavem tufala tumas! (Jon 3:35; 14:31) Jisas i folem gud ol fasin blong Papa blong hem, taswe Baebol i talem se “hem i pija blong God ya we yumi no save luk.”—Kolosi 1:15.
14. ?Olsem wanem Pikinini blong Jehova i bon olsem wan man?
14 Pikinini ya we Jehova i lavem tumas, i rere blong lego heven mo kamdaon long wol olsem wan man. ?Olsem wanem samting ya i hapen? Jehova i mekem wan merikel. Hem i tekem laef blong Pikinini blong hem long heven, mo i putum long bel blong wan yang gel we nem blong hem Meri. From samting ya, Meri i gat bel we i no slip wetem man. Nao hem i bonem wan pikinini boe we i no gat sin, mo hem i putum nem blong hem se Jisas.—Luk 1:30-35.
?JISAS I WANEM KAEN MAN?
15. ?Olsem wanem blong save gud Jehova?
15 Sipos yu ridim ol Gospel ya, Matiu, Mak, Luk, mo Jon, bambae yu kasem plante save long saed blong Jisas, laef blong hem, mo ol fasin blong hem. Samting ya bambae i givhan long yu blong yu save gud Jehova tu, from we Jisas i gat sem fasin olsem Papa blong hem. Taswe, Jisas i talem se: “Man we i luk mi, hem i luk Papa tu.”—Jon 14:9.
16. ?Jisas i tijim ol man long wanem? ?Evri samting we Jisas i tijim i kam wea?
16 Plante man oli singaot Jisas se “Tija.” (Jon 1:38; 13:13) Impoten samting we hem i tijim ol man long hem, hemia “gud nius blong Kingdom.” ?Kingdom hem i wanem? Hem i gavman blong God long heven we bambae i rulum fulwol, mo bambae i givim plante blesing long ol man we oli obei long God. (Matiu 4:23) Evri samting we Jisas i tijim i kamaot long Jehova. Hem i talem se: “Ol tok we mi stap tijim ol man long hem, oli no blong mi, be oli kamaot long God we i sanem mi mi kam.” (Jon 7:16) Jisas i save samting we Jehova i wantem, hemia se ol man oli mas harem gud nius blong Kingdom blong God we bambae i rulum wol.
17. ?Jisas i tijim ol man long weples? ?From wanem hem i wok had blong tijim olgeta?
17 ?Jisas i tijim ol man long weples? Long evri ples we hem i faenem ol man, olsem ol taon mo vilej mo ol ples raonabaot, maket haos, haos prea, mo long ol haos blong olgeta. Hem i no wet blong ol man oli kam long hem, be hem i go long olgeta. (Mak 6:56; Luk 19:5, 6) Jisas i wok had, mo i yusum plante taem mo paoa blong hem, blong tijim ol man. ?From wanem? From we God i wantem se hem i mekem olsem, mo oltaem hem i obei long Papa blong hem. (Jon 8:28, 29) Mo tu, Jisas i prij from we hem i sore long ol man. (Ridim Matiu 9:35, 36.) Hem i luk se ol lida blong skul oli no tijim ol man long trutok blong God mo Kingdom blong hem. Taswe, hem i wantem talemaot gud nius long olgeta man.
18. ?Wanem ol fasin blong Jisas we yu yu laekem tumas?
18 Jisas i lavem ol man mo i mekem i gud long olgeta. Hem i kaen mo ol man oli no fraet blong toktok long hem. Ol pikinini tu oli laekem blong stap klosap long hem. (Mak 10:13-16) Oltaem Jisas i mekem i stret. Hem i no laekem nating, taem man i mekem kruked fasin no i spolem narafala. (Matiu 21:12, 13) Long taem blong Jisas, ol woman oli no gat raet blong mekem plante samting, mo ol man oli no respektem olgeta. Be Jisas i kaen long ol woman mo i respektem olgeta. (Jon 4:9, 27) Mo tu, Jisas i mekem tingting blong hem i stap daon oltaem. Wan naet, hem i mekem samting we ol man blong wok nomo oli stap mekem. Hem i wasem leg blong ol aposol blong hem.—Jon 13:2-5, 12-17.
19. ?Wanem i soemaot se Jisas i save samting we ol man oli nidim mo i wantem givhan long olgeta?
19 Jisas i save gud ol samting we ol man oli nidim, mo hem i wantem givhan long olgeta. Hem i soemaot samting ya taem hem i yusum paoa blong God blong mekem ol sikman oli kamgud. (Matiu 14:14) Wan man we i gat sik ya leprosi, i kam long Jisas mo i talem se: “Sipos yu wantem, yu save mekem mi mi klin.” Jisas i luk we man ya i stap safa. Hem i sore long hem mo i wantem givhan long hem. Ale hem i putum han blong hem long man ya, mo i talem se: “!Mi mi wantem! Yu kam klin!” !Nao sikman ya i kamgud bakegen! (Mak 1:40-42) ?Yu ting se man ya i harem olsem wanem?
OLTAEM JISAS I OBEI LONG JEHOVA
20, 21. ?Olsem wanem Jisas i soemaot nambawan eksampol blong obei long God?
20 Jisas i soemaot nambawan eksampol blong obei long God. Nomata wanem samting i hapen, mo wanem samting ol enemi oli mekem long hem, be hem i obei long papa blong hem. Taem Setan i traem hem, hem i no foldaon long sin. (Matiu 4:1-11) Sam famle blong Jisas tu oli no bilif se hem i Mesaea. Oli talem se “hed blong hem i krangke.” Be Jisas i gohed nomo blong mekem wok blong God. (Mak 3:21) Taem ol enemi oli spolem hem, hem i no givimbak long olgeta, be hem i gohed blong mekem samting we Jehova i talem.—1 Pita 2:21-23.
21 Go kasem taem we Jisas i hang long pos mo i ded, hem i mekem samting we Jehova i wantem. (Ridim Filipae 2:8) Traem tingbaot ol samting we i hapen long dei we hem i ded. Oli holemtaet hem, ol giaman witnes oli talem se hem i tok nogud long God, ol rabis jaj oli jajem hem se i mas ded, ol man oli laf long hem, ol soldia oli mekem hem i harem soa long bodi blong hem, mo oli nilim hem long pos. Taem klosap hem i ded, hem i singaot se: “!Olgeta samting i finis nao!” Bigfala tingting blong Jisas i blong finisim wok we Jehova i givim long hem. (Jon 19:30) Tri dei afta we Jisas i ded, Jehova i mekem hem i laef bakegen olsem wan spirit man. (1 Pita 3:18) Sam wik biaen, Jisas i go antap long heven, i “sidaon long raet saed blong God,” mo i wet blong God i putumap hem i kam King.—Hibrus 10:12, 13.
22. From we Jisas i obei long Papa blong hem, ?yumi gat wanem janis?
22 From we Jisas i obei long Papa blong hem, yumi gat janis blong laef olwe long paradaes long wol, olsem we Jehova i wantem fastaem. Long nekis japta, bambae yumi tokbaot olsem wanem ded blong Jisas i mekem se yumi save laef olwe.

Bible Transleison wea Isi for Minim
“Toktok bilong God hem laef.”—HEB. 4:12.
SONG: 37, 116
1. (a) Wanem assignment nao God givim long Adam? (b) Wanem nao pipol bilong God iusim languis for hem?
WEI wea iumi olketa man iusim languis for story hem wanfala present from Jehovah. Long garden bilong Eden, God givim Adam wanfala assignment for nemim evri animal. Nem wea Adam givim long olketa animal hia hem barava fitim nao. (Gen. 2:19, 20) Bihaen datwan, pipol bilong God iusim languis for praisem Jehovah and for story long pipol abaotem hem. And tu, pipol bilong God transleitim Bible long olketa difren languis mekem staka pipol savve lane abaotem Jehovah.
2. (a) Wanem thrifala point nao Niu World Bible Transleison Komiti tingim taem olketa transleitim Bible? (b) Wanem nao bae iumi storyim long disfala study?
2 Staka thousand Bible transleison nao stap. Samfala barava stret and samfala nomoa. Taem Niu World Bible Transleison Komiti transleitim Bible, olketa evritaem tingim thrifala point hia: (1) Mekhae long nem bilong God and putim long olketa scripture wea hem shud stap long hem. (Readim Matthew 6:9.) (2) Sapos hem fitim, transleit followim evri word long oldfala manuscript, bat sapos hem no klia, transleitim mining. (3) Iusim olketa toktok wea pipol isi for readim and minim. * (Readim Nehemiah 8:8, 12.) Distaem New World Translation Bible stap long winim 130 difren languis, and olketa wea transleitim disfala Bible followim thrifala point hia. Long disfala study, bae iumi storyim hao olketa followim thrifala point hia taem olketa transleitim 2013 revised New World Translation long English and long olketa nara languis tu.
BIBLE WEA MEKHAE LONG NEM BILONG GOD
3, 4. (a) Wea nao Tetragrammaton hem stap? (b) Wanem nao staka Bible transleison duim long nem bilong God?
3 Long Hebrew languis olketa iusim fofala leta wea olketa kolem Tetragrammaton for raetem nem bilong God. Tetragrammaton hem stap long staka oldfala Hebrew manuscript, olsem example, long olketa Dead Sea Scroll. Hem stap tu long samfala copy bilong Greek Septuagint wea olketa raetem midolwan long 200 B.C.E. and 100 C.E. Staka pipol sapraes taem olketa luksavve nem bilong God stap staka taem insaed long olketa oldfala manuscript.
4 Datwan showimaot nem bilong God shud stap insaed long Bible. Bat staka Bible transleison no garem nem bilong God. Olsem example, long 1950, organization bilong God releasem New World Translation of the Christian Greek Scriptures. Tufala year bihaen, datfala Revised Standard Version hem release tu. Datfala Bible hem aotem nem bilong God wea hem stap long American Standard Version wea release long 1901. Why nao olketa aotem nem bilong God? Olketa wea transleitim datfala Bible sei hem “barava no fitim” for iusim nem bilong God. Staka Bible transleison long English and olketa nara languis tu aotem nem bilong God.
5. Why nao hem important for putim nem bilong God long Bible?
5 Waswe, hem important for olketa Bible transleita putim nem bilong God long Bible? Yes! God nao givim kam Bible and hem laekem pipol for savve long nem bilong hem. Transleita wea duim gud waka bilong hem shud savve long wanem God laekem. Staka scripture showimaot hem important for savve long nem bilong God and for mekhae long datfala nem. (Ex. 3:15; Ps. 83:18; 148:13; Isa. 42:8; 43:10; John 17:6, 26; Acts 15:14) Jehovah iusim holy spirit for mekem olketa wea raetem Bible for raetem nem bilong hem staka thousand taem insaed long olketa oldfala manuscript. (Readim Ezekiel 38:23.) So taem olketa transleita aotem nem bilong God, olketa showimaot olketa no respectim Jehovah.
6. Why nao revised New World Translation Bible putim bak nem bilong God long sixfala scripture moa?
6 Distaem, samfala nara pruv stap wea showimaot iumi shud iusim nem bilong God. Long datfala 2013 revised English New World Translation hem iusim nem bilong God 7,216 taem. Olketa putim bak nem bilong God long sixfala scripture moa, wea hem no stap insaed long Bible wea release long 1984. Faevfala long olketa scripture hia nao hem 1 Samuel 2:25; 6:3; 10:26; 23:14, 16. Nem bilong God hem stap long olketa scripture hia long olketa Dead Sea Scroll. * Mek-six scripture hem Judges 19:18. Olketa putim bak nem bilong God long scripture hia bihaen olketa studyim gud moa olketa oldfala Bible manuscript.
7, 8. Wanem nao nem bilong God hem minim?
7 Olketa tru Christian luksavve nem bilong God, Jehovah, hem barava important. Datfala nem hem minim “Hem Mekem Kamap.” * Long bifor, olketa pablikeson bilong iumi iusim Exodus 3:14, wea sei “Mi Bae Kamap Wanem Mi Laek for Kamap,” for explainim mining bilong datfala nem. Datfala Bible bilong iumi wea release long 1984 sei Jehovah bae kamap eni samting wea hem laek for kamap mekem evri plan bilong hem savve kamap tru. * Bat 2013 revised Bible sei: “Maet datfala nem Jehovah hem garem datfala mining, bat hem savve minim narafala samting tu. Hem minim Jehovah savve mekem creation bilong hem for duim eni samting wea hem laekem, mekem plan bilong hem kamap tru.”
8 Jehovah savve mekem creation bilong hem for duim eni samting wea hem laekem. Olsem example, God mekem Noah for wakem ark, hem mekem Bezalel for savve hao for wakem enikaen spesol samting, hem mekem Gideon for kamap man for faet, and hem mekem aposol Paul for kamap wanfala missionary. Pipol bilong God luksavve nem bilong God hem garem bigfala mining, dastawe Niu World Bible Transleison Komiti putim nem bilong God long Bible.
9. Why nao Governing Body laekem pipol for garem Bible long languis bilong olketa?
9 Staka Bible transleison nao aotem nem bilong God long Bible, and olketa putim “Lord” or nem bilong wanfala god bilong olketa. Datwan hem wanfala main reason why Governing Body laekem pipol for garem Bible long languis bilong olketa wea mekhae long nem bilong God. (Readim Malachi 3:16.) Distaem New World Translation hem stap long winim 130 difren languis and evri transleison hia mekhae long nem bilong God.
TRANSLEISON WEA STRET AND ISI FOR MINIM
10, 11. Wanem nao samfala samting wea no isi taem olketa transleitim New World Translation long olketa nara languis?
10 Taem olketa transleitim English New World Translation go long olketa nara languis, olketa faendem samfala samting hem no isi for transleitim. Olsem example, English Bible iusim Hebrew word “Sheol” long Ecclesiastes 9:10 and long samfala nara scripture. Samfala nara English Bible transleison tu iusim datfala word “Sheol.” Bat staka wea transleitim Bible long nara languis no savve iusim datfala word bikos pipol no savve long datfala Hebrew word. Datfala word no stap long languis dictionary bilong olketa, and samfala tingse hem nem bilong wanfala ples. Dastawe Governing Body sei olketa transleita savve transleitim datfala Hebrew word “Sheol” and Greek word “Hades” olsem “Grev.” Wei for transleitim tufala word hia olsem “Grev” hem stret and hem isi for minim.
11 Long samfala languis hem no isi tu for transleitim Hebrew and Greek word for “soul.” Long samfala languis, datfala word “soul” hem savve minim wanfala spirit or samting wea lusim body taem man hem dae. For mekem pipol no konfius, Governing Body sei olketa transleita savve transleitim datfala word “soul” followim mining bilong hem long scripture. Wanfala appendix long New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures—With References hem storyim olketa difren mining wea datfala word “soul” hem garem. Governing Body laekem taem man readim revised Bible hem isi for hem minim. Olketa explainim mining bilong samfala Hebrew and Greek toktok long olketa footnote.
12. Wanem nao samfala nara change wea kamap long 2013 revised Bible? (Lukim tu article “Datfala 2013 Revised English New World Translation,” long page 14.)
12 Olketa kwestin wea samfala transleita askem showimaot maet mining bilong samfala nara scripture hem no klia tu. So long September 2007, Governing Body givim instruction for changem samfala toktok long English New World Translation Bible. Taem datfala komiti duim datwan, olketa ting raonem staka thousand kwestin from olketa wea transleitim Bible long olketa nara languis. Olketa changem samfala old English toktok go for olketa English toktok wea pipol savve iusim distaem. Datwan mekem hem isi for man readim and minim Bible, bat hem no changem mining bilong olketa scripture. Waka wea olketa brata duim for transleitim Bible long olketa nara languis hem helpem datfala komiti tu.—Prov. 27:17.
OLKETA BARAVA TINGHAE

Toktok wea Savve Encouragem Narawan!
TAEM Jesus story long samfala woman, samfala taem hem no iusim nem bilong olketa bat hem iusim datfala toktok “woman.” Olsem example, taem hem healim wanfala woman wea baksaed bilong hem bend for 18-fala year, hem sei long hem: “Woman, bae iu gud bak nao.” (Luke 13:10-13) Jesus iusim datfala toktok wea pipol long bifor savve iusim for showimaot respect, taem hem story long mami bilong hem. Bat narafala toktok hem stap wea olketa savve iusim wea showimaot respect winim datfala toktok “woman.”
Datfala toktok stap long Bible wea samfala iusim taem olketa story long samfala woman, wea showimaot olketa kaen and tingim feeling bilong olketa woman hia. Jesus iusim datfala toktok taem hem story long wanfala woman wea garem sik wea blood hem ran olowe for 12-fala year. Woman hia hem brekem Law taem hem kam for lukim Jesus bikos Law hem sei eniwan wea garem sik olsem hem no klin. Hem shud no kam klosap long pipol bikos long sik bilong hem. (Lev. 15:19-27) Bat woman hia barava needim help. Bible sei: “Hem go lukim staka doctor and spendem evri selen bilong hem finis, bat treatment wea olketa givim hem no finisim sik bat just mekem hem worse go moa.”—Mark 5:25, 26.
Woman hia wakabaot kam midol long olketa pipol, hem kam bihaen long Jesus and tasim kaleko bilong hem. Semtaem nomoa blood hia stop nao! Woman hia no laekem eniwan for savve wanem hem duim, bat Jesus sei: “Hu nao tasim mi?” (Luke 8:45-47) Then nomoa woman hia wea fraet and seksek tumas hem nildaon front long Jesus and “talem evri samting long hem.”—Mark 5:33.
For mekem woman hia no fraet, Jesus story kaen long hem olsem: “Dota bilong mi, iu no wari!” (Matt. 9:22) Olketa savveman wea studyim Bible sei datfala Hebrew toktok and Greek toktok for “dota” savve piksarem “wei for kaen and tingim feeling bilong man.” Jesus encouragem woman hia taem hem sei: “Faith bilong iu mekem iu gud bak. Iu go and no wari moa, bikos sik hia hem finis nao.”—Mark 5:34.
Taem richfala man Boaz story long Ruth, datfala woman from Moab, hem iusim datfala toktok “dota.” Ruth tu hem fraet lelebet bikos hem kam kolektem leftova grain long garden bilong man wea hem no savve long hem. Boaz sei: “Dota bilong mi, iu herem mi!” Then hem encouragem Ruth for gohed kolektem leftova grain long olketa garden bilong hem. Ruth hem nildaon front long Boaz and askem hem why nao hem kaen tumas long hem, wea hem woman from difren ples. Boaz encouragem hem and sei: “Mi herem finis nius abaotem evri samting wea iu duim for mami-in-law bilong iu [datfala widow woman Naomi] . . . Mi prea for Jehovah . . . blessim samting wea iu duim and barava rewardim iu.”—Ruth 2:8-12.
Jesus and Boaz showimaot nambawan example for olketa elder! Samfala taem, maet tufala elder savve story witim wanfala sista wea needim help. Bihaen tufala prea for askem help bilong Jehovah, and lisin gud long wanem datfala sista talem, datwan bae helpem tufala for savve hao for iusim Bible for encouragem and comfortim sista hia.—Rome 15:4.

Wanem taim ol manmeri bilong God i stap kalabus long Bikpela Babilon?
Ol i stap kalabus bihain long yia 100 C.E. na i kam inap long yia 1919. Bilong wanem yumi tok olsem?
Ol tok profet na ol samting i kamap long graun i soim klia olsem ol Kristen i lusim kalabus long 1919, na God i bungim ol Kristen em i bin makim, na ol i kamap olsem wanpela kongrigesen. Tingim: Kingdom Bilong God i kirap mekim wok long 1914. Insait long ol yia bihain, bikpela traim i painim ol manmeri bilong God, na dispela i helpim ol long stretim stretim pasin bilong ol. * (Mal. 3:1-4) Long 1919, Jisas i makim “gutpela wokboi i gat savetingting” long lukautim ol manmeri bilong God—em ol manmeri husat i kamap klin pinis—na dispela wokboi bai givim “kaikai long ol long taim stret.” (Mat. 24:45-47) Long 1919, ol manmeri bilong God i kirap gen long bihainim lotu i tru. Long dispela rot, ol i lusim kalabus long Bikpela Babilon. (Rev. 18:4) Tasol wanem taim ol Kristen i kalabus long Bikpela Babilon?
Inap planti yia, yumi tok olsem kirap long 1918 ol manmeri bilong God i stap kalabus long Bikpela Babilon inap sotpela haptaim. Wastaua bilong Mas 15, 1992, i tok: “Lain bilong Jehova long bipo ol i bin kalabus long Babilon inap sotpela taim, na olsem tasol long yia 1918 lain bilong Jehova long nau ol i bin kalabus inap liklik hap taim tasol long Bikpela Babilon.” Tasol sampela moa wok painimaut i soim olsem ol Kristen i kalabus long Bikpela Babilon inap planti yia paslain long 1918.
Orait yumi ken skelim wanpela tok profet i stori long ol manmeri bilong God bai i stap kalabus, na wanem taim ol bai kamap fri. Dispela tok profet i stap long Esekiel 37:1-14. Long wanpela visen, Esekiel i lukim planti bun bilong man i stap long wanpela ples daun. Jehova i tokim Esekiel olsem “ol Israel i olsem ol dispela bun i drai pinis.” Bikpela truim bilong dispela tok profet i kamap taim “lain Israel bilong God” i lusim kalabus bilong Bikpela Babilon. (Gal. 6:16; Apo. 3:21) Bihain, Esekiel i lukim ol bun i join na kamap olsem bikpela lain soldia. Dispela visen i makim stret lain bilong God taim ol i kamap fri na lusim kalabus bilong Bikpela Babilon long 1919! Tasol dispela visen i givim wanem save long yumi long haptaim ol i stap kalabus long en?
Namba 1: Baibel i kolim ol bun olsem “bun i drai” na “bun i drai tru.” (Ese. 37:2, 11) Dispela i soim olsem ol manmeri em bun i makim, ol i dai long sait bilong bilip inap longpela taim tru. Namba 2: Dispela senis i kamap isi isi, na em i no kamap wantu tasol. Pastaim, nois i kamap, na “ol bun i wok long skruim ol yet i go bek long ples bilong ol na ol i kamap olsem man.” Bihain “rop na mit i kamap long ol dispela bun.” Bihain long dispela, skin i karamapim ol bun, rop, na mit. Taim olgeta dispela samting i kamap pinis, “win i kamap long ol dispela bodi, na ol i gat laip.” Jehova i bringim dispela lain i go bek long graun bilong ol yet. Olgeta dispela samting i mas kamap insait long sampela haptaim.—Ese. 37:7-10, 14.
Lain Israel bilong bipo i stap kalabus inap longpela taim. Long 740 B.C.E., planti manmeri bilong 10-pela hap lain bilong Israel i go kalabus. Long 607 B.C.E., Jerusalem i bagarap na lain Juda i go kalabus. Ol i lusim kalabus long 537 B.C.E. na liklik lain Juda i go bek long Jerusalem long wokim gen tempel na kirapim bek lotu i tru.
Taim yumi tingim ol dispela stori bilong Baibel, yumi luksave olsem ol Kristen i stap kalabus long Bikpela Babilon inap longpela haptaim moa winim haptaim long 1918 i go inap 1919. Longpela bilong haptaim em ol Kristen i stap kalabus long Bikpela Babilon i wankain long haptaim em ol gras nogut long tok piksa i gro wantaim gutpela wit, “em ol pikinini bilong Kingdom.” (Mat. 13:36-43) Dispela haptaim we gras nogut i gro wantaim gutpela wit i makim haptaim we namba bilong ol apostet i bikpela moa winim namba bilong ol Kristen tru. I olsem kongrigesen Kristen i stap kalabus long Bikpela Babilon. Ol Kristen i stap kalabus long Bikpela Babilon bihain long 100 C.E. na i kam inap long taim bilong klinim tempel long taim bilong pinis.—Apo. 20:29, 30; 2 Tes. 2:3, 6; 1 Jon 2:18, 19.
Insait long haptaim we ol Kristen i stap kalabus long Bikpela Babilon, ol pris pasto na lain politik i laik holim yet namba bilong ol long mekim wok bos, olsem na ol i pasim rot bilong ol man long kisim save long Tok Bilong God. Sampela taim, ol i putim lo i tambuim ol man long ritim Baibel long tokples ol i save long en. Sampela man i sakim dispela lo, na ol pris pasto na lain politik i stretim rot na kukim ol long paia. Ol pris pasto i save mekim nogut tru long ol man sapos ol man i kamapim tingting em ol pris pasto i no wanbel long en, olsem na ol i pasim rot bilong ol man long kisim save long tok i tru.
Long visen bilong Esekiel, ol bun i kisim laip gen na God i bringim ol i go bek long graun bilong ol yet. Dispela i makim wanem samting? Truim bilong en i kamap long wanem taim? Truim i kamap olsem wanem? Truim i kamap isi isi inap longpela haptaim. Em i kamap insait long planti handret yia paslain long taim bilong pinis, na dispela i olsem “nois bilong ol bun i pairap.” Maski bilip bilong ol lotu giaman i go long planti hap bilong graun, sampela manmeri i stap gut long God na ol i mekim olgeta samting ol inap mekim bilong sapotim lotu i tru. Sampela bilong ol i trensletim tok bilong Baibel i go long tokples em ol manmeri inap save long en. Sampela man i autim tok i tru em ol yet i bin kisim save long en long Baibel.
Klostu long yia 1900, Charles Taze Russell na ol wanwok bilong em i givim bel tru long kamapim klia ol tok i tru bilong Baibel. Dispela i kain olsem mit na skin i wok long kamap na karamapim bun. Zion’s Watch Tower na ol narapela pablikesen i helpim ol man i gat gutpela bel long kisim save long tok i tru. Bihain, “Photo-Drama of Creation” long 1914, na buk The Finished Mystery long 1917 i strongim ol manmeri bilong God. Long 1919, ol manmeri bilong God i kisim laip gen long sait bilong bilip, na ol i go sindaun long nupela ples long sait bilong bilip. Long ol yia bihain, ol manmeri husat i bilip na wet long kisim laip long graun, ol i joinim liklik lain Kristen em God i makim na 2-pela lain wantaim i stap olsem “bikpela lain soldia.”—Ese. 37:10; Sek. 8:20-23. *
Ol tok yumi skelim pinis i soim klia olsem ol manmeri bilong God i kalabus long Bikpela Babilon taim ol apostet i kamap planti moa long ol yia bihain long 100 C.E. Dispela em wanpela haptaim we ol Kristen i stap long tudak long sait bilong bilip, wankain olsem samting i painim ol Israel taim ol i stap kalabus. Ol manmeri bilong God i bin karim bikpela hevi long sait bilong bilip, tasol yumi ken amamas tru olsem yumi stap long taim we “ol man i gat gutpela save na tingting bai ol i lait” na mekim “stretpela pasin tasol, na bai ol i kamap klin tru”!—Dan. 12:3, 10.
Yu ting Satan i kisim Jisas i go stret long tempel na traim em?
Yumi no save sapos Jisas i sanap insait long tempel o em i mekim olsem long rot bilong wanpela visen. Sampela taim, ol pablikesen bilong yumi i stori olsem Jisas i bin sanap insait long tempel. Tasol sampela taim, ol pablikesen bilong yumi i tok dispela samting i kamap long rot bilong visen.
Pastaim yumi ken skelim stori bilong Baibel. Holi spirit i kirapim aposel Matyu long stori long samting i kamap long Jisas, na em i tok: “Nau Satan i kisim em [Jisas] i go long taun holi na putim em antap tru long banis bilong tempel.” (Mat. 4:5) Luk i stori long wankain samting na em i tok: “Em i bringim Jisas i go long Jerusalem na putim em antap tru long banis bilong tempel.”—Luk 4:9.
Long bipo, ol pablikesen bilong yumi i stori olsem, Satan i no bin kisim Jisas i go na putim em antap long tempel, nogat. Wastaua bilong Mas 1, 1961 i tok: “Long stori bilong Satan i traim Jisas long ples drai nating, yumi no inap tok olsem tru tru Satan i kisim Jisas i go long ol ples tru na traim em, nogat. I no gat wanpela maunten i stap tru em man inap sanap long en na lukim ‘olgeta kingdom bilong graun wantaim ol nambawan gutpela samting bilong ol.’ Olsem na yumi no inap tok olsem Satan ‘i kisim [Jisas] i go long taun holi na putim em antap tru long banis bilong tempel.’ I no gat nid long Satan i mekim olsem bambai em inap pundaunim Jisas long traim.” Tasol ol Wastaua i kamap bihain i stori olsem sapos Krais i bihainim tok bilong Satan, em bai kilim em yet i dai.
Sampela man i tok Jisas i no bilong lain Livai, olsem na i no stret long em i sanap antap long banis bilong tempel. Olsem na ating Satan “i kisim [Jisas] i go” long tempel long rot bilong visen. Dispela samting i wankain long samting i bin kamap long profet Esekiel inap planti handret yia i go pinis.—Ese. 8:3, 7-10; 11:1, 24; 37:1, 2.
Sapos Satan i traim Jisas long rot bilong visen, orait yumi laik save:
Dispela traim i kamap tru long Jisas o em i wanpela stori nating?
Sapos Satan i laik bai Jisas i tanim ol ston i kamap bret, o em i laik bai tru tru Jisas i lotuim em, orait olsem wanem long narapela traim? Satan i laik bai tru tru Jisas i sanap antap long tempel na kalap i go daun long graun, o nogat?
Tasol sapos tru tru Jisas i sanap antap long banis bilong tempel, orait yumi laik save:
Jisas i brukim Lo taim em i sanap antap long banis bilong tempel?
Olsem wanem Jisas i lusim ples drai nating na em i go long Jerusalem?
Sampela wok painimaut inap helpim yumi long bekim dispela 2-pela askim.
Profesa D. A. Carson i stori olsem tok Grik, hi·e·ron’, em ol i trensletim olsem “tempel” long Buk Luk na Buk Matyu, em “inap makim eria olgeta insait long banis, na i no makim tasol haus lotu.” Olsem na i no gat nid long Jisas i sanap antap long haus lotu yet. Ating em inap sanap long graun insait long banis bilong tempel long kona i go olsem long saut is. Stat long dispela kona, graun i go daun inap olsem 137 mita long veli bilong Kidron. Dispela kona bilong banis long saut-is bilong tempel i gat fletpela rup, na dispela kona i stap long graun i antap moa. Wanpela saveman bilong bipo, em Josifas, em i tok olsem sapos wanpela man i sanap long dispela kona na em i lukluk i go daun, “em bai pilim airaun” bikos dispela kona i stap antap tru. Jisas i no bilong lain Livai, olsem na em inap sanap long dispela hap, na ol man i no inap sutim tok long em.
Tasol olsem wanem Satan i bringim Jisas i go long tempel taim Jisas i stap long ples drai nating? Yumi no save long dispela samting i kamap olsem wanem. Stori bilong traim i painim Jisas i no kolim stret hamas aua o de Satan i traim Jisas, na tu, stori i no kolim wanem hap stret Jisas i stap long en long ples drai nating. Ating Jisas i bin wokabaut i go bek long Jerusalem, maski sampela haptaim i lus long em i wokabaut. Baibel i no tok olsem Jisas i stap yet long ples drai nating taim Satan i wok long traim em. Baibel i tok tasol olsem Satan i kisim em i go long Jerusalem.
Olsem wanem Satan i “soim [Jisas] olgeta kingdom bilong graun”? Yumi save olsem tru tru Jisas i no lukim olgeta kingdom bikos long ples drai nating we em i stap long en, i no gat wanpela maunten we man inap sanap long en na lukim olgeta kingdom. Olsem na ating Satan i yusim visen long soim olgeta kingdom long Jisas, wankain olsem man inap yusim projekta na skrin long soim piksa bilong ol narapela narapela hap bilong graun. Tasol taim Satan i tokim Jisas long “brukim skru na lotu” long em, dispela em samting i kamap tru tru. (Mat. 4:8, 9) Yumi inap tok olsem tru tru Satan i tokim Jisas long lusim banis bilong tempel na kalap i go daun long graun bambai em inap dai—Jisas i no inap i dai sapos dispela traim i kamap long rot bilong visen.
Olsem yumi tok pinis long kirap bilong dispela atikol, yumi no save sapos tru tru Jisas i sanap long tempel o dispela samting i kamap long rot bilong visen. Olsem na yumi inap tok olsem ating Jisas i go long Jerusalem na sanap long banis bilong tempel.

BIHAINIM BILIP BILONG OL | DEVIT
“Bikpela Yet Bai i Winim Dispela Pait”
DEVIT i sanap na i lukim ol soldia i ron i kam abrusim em. Wai na ol i mekim olsem? Ol soldia i pret na ranawe long ples bilong pait. Ating Devit i harim ol i kolim nem bilong wanpela man inap planti taim. Taim Devit i lukluk i go long ples daun, em i lukim wanpela traipela man i sanap i stap.
Em Goliat tasol! Nau Devit i save long as na ol soldia i pret long em, em i traipela man tru winim olgeta soldia. Maski Goliat i no werim strongpela klos pait bilong em, hevi bilong em bai winim hevi bilong tupela bikpela man. Em i karim ol samting bilong pait, em i gat bikpela strong, na em i bin mekim planti pait pinis. Goliat i singaut strong long lain ami bilong Israel, em i laik salensim ol. Tingim, taim Goliat i singaut na tok bilas long lain ami bilong Israel na king bilong ol em Sol, ating ol man i stap longwe ol inap harim nek bilong em. Em i tokim ol long makim wanpela man long i kam pait long em, na bai dispela pait i pinis!—1 Samuel 17:4-10.
Ol Israel i pret. King Sol tu i pret. Devit i harim olsem winim wanpela mun nau dispela samting i kamap na ol i no pait! Lain ami bilong Filistia na Israel i stap tasol long ples bilong pait na long olgeta de Goliat i wok long tok bilas long ol Israel. King bilong Israel na lain ami bilong em i pret long Goliat! Tripela brata bilong Devit tu i insait long ami. Devit i harim dispela na em i bel hevi. Goliat i tok bilas long ami bilong Israel, tasol long tingting bilong Devit, em i tok bilas long God bilong Israel, em Jehova! Devit em i yangpela man, olsem na em bai mekim wanem? Na long nau yumi kisim wanem skul long bilip bilong Devit?—1 Samuel 17:11-14.
“EM DISPELA MAN TASOL. KISIM WEL BILONG MAKIM KING NA PUTIM LONG EM”
Pastaim yumi laik stori long samting i kamap planti mun i go pinis. Em apinun pinis na ples i wok long i go tudak, na Devit i lukautim ol sipsip bilong papa bilong em long ol ples maunten arere long Betlehem. Devit em yangpela man na em i luk nais, ating em i gat 15 krismas samting, em i gat retpela skin na gras, na em i gat gutpela save. Long taim ples i no gat nois, em i save paitim gita bilong em. Em i amamas tru long lukim ol samting God i bin wokim. Na em i lusim planti aua long paitim gita, olsem na isi isi save bilong em long paitim gita i go bikpela. Tasol long dispela apinun, papa bilong Devit i salim tok long Devit i mas kam lukim em, na Devit i no save long risen bilong dispela bung.—1 Samuel 16:12.
Em i lukim papa bilong em Jesi i toktok wantaim wanpela man i lapun tru. Em gutpela profet Samuel. Jehova i salim em i go bilong makim wanpela pikinini man bilong Jesi long kamap king bilong Israel! Samuel i bin lukim 7-pela bikbrata bilong Devit, tasol Jehova i kamapim klia long Samuel olsem em i no ken makim wanpela bilong ol dispela man. Taim Devit i kamap pinis, Jehova i tokim Samuel: “Em dispela man tasol. Kisim wel bilong makim king na putim long em.” Orait long ai bilong ol bikbrata bilong Devit, Samuel i kisim oil em i bin bringim i kam na kapsaitim liklik oil long het bilong Devit. Kirap long dispela taim, laip bilong Devit i senis. Baibel i tok: “Spirit bilong Bikpela i kam i stap strong long em na spirit i stap long em oltaim bihain.”—1 Samuel 16:1, 5-11, 13.
Kirap long dispela taim, yu ting Devit i tingting long kamap king? Nogat. Em i amamas long wet long spirit bilong Jehova long helpim em long save long taim stret em bai mekim ol bikpela wok moa. Em i wet i stap na mekim yet wok bilong lukautim sipsip, em wok i no gat nem. Em i daunim laik bilong em yet na strongim bel long mekim dispela wok. Tupela taim ol wel animal i ronim ol sipsip bilong papa bilong em, wanpela taim em laion na long narapela taim em bea. Tasol Devit i ron i go na pait wantaim ol dispela wel animal bilong kisim ol sipsip i lus. Tupela taim wantaim, em i kilim ol dispela wel animal bilong pait!—1 Samuel 17:34-36; Aisaia 31:4.
Ol i bung gen na toktok wantaim Devit. King Sol i harim stori long samting Devit i save mekim. Maski Sol em strongpela man bilong pait, Jehova i no orait long em, long wanem, em i sakim tok bilong em. Jehova i rausim pinis spirit bilong em long Sol, na planti taim spirit nogut i bosim em, olsem na em i kisim pasin bilong belhat, tingting kranki, na pait. Tasol taim Sol i harim musik, dispela i save helpim em. Sampela man long lain bilong Sol i harim olsem Devit em man bilong pilaim musik na em i save pait. Olsem na ol i bringim Devit i go long haus bilong Sol na em i mekim wok olsem man bilong pilaim musik, na em i save karim ol samting em king i yusim bilong pait.—1 Samuel 15:26-29; 16:14-23.
Ol yangpela inap kisim planti skul long pasin bilong Devit long bilip. Tingim, em i lusim sampela haptaim long mekim ol samting we inap helpim em long i go klostu long Jehova. Na tu, em i wok strong long kisim save long ol samting we inap helpim em long lukautim em yet, na tu, ol man inap kisim em long mekim wok bilong ol. Tasol bikpela samting moa, em i redi long larim spirit bilong Jehova i stiaim em. Em i stap gutpela eksampel tru em yumi inap bihainim!—Saveman 12:1.
“YUMI ISRAEL I NO KEN PRET LONG DISPELA FILISTIA”
Taim Devit i wok long Sol, planti taim em i save go bek long ples bilong em bilong lukautim ol sipsip, sampela taim em i stap inap longpela taim. Wanpela taim em i lukautim sipsip, na Jesi i salim Devit long i go lukim 3-pela bikbrata bilong em, ol i stap long lain ami bilong Sol. Devit i harim tok na karim ol kaikai samting bilong ol brata bilong em na i go long ples daun bilong Ela. Olsem yumi stori long kirap bilong atikol, taim Devit i go kamap, em i bel hevi long lukim olsem tupela lain ami i sanap long ples daun na lukluk long narapela narapela na ol i no pait.—1 Samuel 17:1-3, 15-19.
Devit i no amamas long samting i kamap. Bilong wanem lain ami bilong Jehova, em God i gat laip, i pret na ranawe long dispela haiden man? Long tingting bilong Devit, i olsem Goliat i tok bilas long Jehova. Olsem na em i tokim ol soldia long ol i mas pait na daunim Goliat. I no longtaim, Eliap em bikbrata bilong Devit i harim em i toktok wantaim ol soldia. Em i belhat na sutim tok long liklik brata bilong em olsem em i kam bilong lukim planti man i dai long dispela pait. Tasol Devit i bekim tok bilong em olsem: “Mi laik save long wanpela samting, olsem na mi askim ol man. Dispela i nogut, a?” Devit i toktok yet long pait na daunim Goliat, em i mekim olsem i go inap long wanpela i tokim Sol long ol tok bilong em. Orait nau king i singautim Devit i go long em.—1 Samuel 17:23-31.
Devit i strongim bel bilong king na i tok: “Yumi Israel i no ken pret long dispela Filistia.” Sol na lain ami bilong em i pret long Goliat. Ating ol i tingting planti bikos ol i lukim olsem Goliat i traipela man. Sapos ol i sanap klostu long em, mak bilong het bilong ol bai stap long bros bilong em. Ol i ting sapos ol i pait long Goliat, em bai isi tru long em i daunim ol hariap. Tasol yumi luksave, Devit i no holim wankain tingting olsem ol long samting i kamap. Olsem na em i redi long i go pait long Goliat.—1 Samuel 17:32.
Tasol Sol i tok: “Nogat tru. Yu no inap. Bai yu pait long em olsem wanem? Yu mangi nating tasol, na em i bin i stap soldia long taim em i yangpela yet i kam inap nau.” Yu ting Devit i mangi nating? Nogat. Tru, Devit i yangpela tumas long kamap wanpela soldia, tasol ol man i save pinis olsem Devit em strongpela man bilong pait na long dispela taim, ating em i gat 19 krismas samting.—1 Samuel 16:18; 17:33.
Devit i stori long Sol long samting em i bin mekim taim laion na bea i laik kaikai ol sipsip. Yu ting em i laik kisim biknem? Nogat. Devit i save long risen na em i winim dispela pait. Em i tok: “Bikpela i bin helpim mi, olsem na ol laion na bea i no bin bagarapim mi. Na nau tu em bai i helpim mi, na dispela Filistia bai i no inap kilim mi i dai.” Ol dispela tok i strongim bel bilong Sol na em i tok: “Gutpela, yu ken i go. Na Bikpela i ken i stap wantaim yu.”—1 Samuel 17:37.
Olsem wanem? Yu laik kisim wankain bilip olsem bilong Devit? Tingim, i gat as na Devit i bilip na i no olsem em i tingting tasol o em i gat laik long mekim. Em i bilip long God, long wanem, em i kisim save long em na em i lukim ol samting God i bin mekim bilong helpim em. Em i save olsem Jehova em Man bilong lukautim em na Man bilong truim ol tok promis bilong em. Sapos yumi laik kisim dispela kain bilip, yumi mas wok yet long kisim save long God em Man i as bilong ol tok bilong Baibel. Taim yumi bihainim ol tok yumi kisim save long en, ol gutpela samting bai kamap na dispela bai strongim bilip bilong yumi.—Hibru 11:1.
“BIKPELA I GIVIM YU LONG HAN BILONG MI”
Pastaim, Sol i laik bai Devit i werim klos pait bilong em. Dispela klos i wankain liklik long klos pait bilong Goliat, ol i wokim long kopa, na i gat ol liklik ain ring i joinim ol hap bilong klos. Tasol taim Devit i pasim dispela bikpela klos, em i no inap long wokabaut. Ol i no skulim em olsem wanpela soldia, olsem na i hatwok long em i pasim klos pait, na tu, em i no inap pasim klos pait bilong Sol, long wanem, Sol em longpela man tru winim ol arapela man bilong Israel! (1 Samuel 9:2) Em i rausim dispela klos pait na pasim klos bilong em yet, em klos ol wasman bilong sipsip i save werim bilong lukautim ol sipsip.—1 Samuel 17:38-40.
Devit i karim katapel, beg long sol bilong en, na wanpela stik bilong lukautim sipsip. Long nau yu inap ting olsem katapel i no strongpela samting bilong pait, tasol long bipo ol man i yusim bilong pait. Ol katapel i gat liklik paus na ol i joinim tupela longpela rop long en, ol wasman bilong sipsip i save yusim katapel long ronim ol wel animal. Ol i save putim wanpela ston long paus, tantanim katapel, na bihain ol i lusim han long wanpela sait bilong rop bilong tromoi ston i go long man o animal ol i laik paitim. Em gutpela samting bilong pait, olsem na lain ami i save makim sampela man long yusim katapel long taim bilong pait.
Devit i kisim ol samting bilong pait na i go hariap long bungim birua bilong em. Yumi ken ting olsem taim Devit i kamap long ples daun, em i beten strong na em i kisim 5-pela liklik raunpela ston arere long wanpela liklik wara. Bihain em i ron i go long ples bilong pait!
Taim Goliat i lukim Devit, em i gat wanem tingting? Baibel i tok, Goliat i “lukim Devit i yangpela tumas na pes bilong en i gutpela na em i no inap long pait. Na em i ting Devit i samting nating tasol.” Goliat i singaut strong olsem: “Bilong wanem yu kisim dispela stik i kam? Yu ting mi dok na yu laik paitim mi, a?” Em i lukim Devit i holim stik, tasol em i no lukim em i holim katapel long han bilong em. Goliat i singautim ol god bilong ol Filistia long bagarapim Devit, na em i tok long em bai kilim i dai Devit na kisim bodi bilong em na givim long ol pisin na ol wel abus na bai ol i kaikai.—1 Samuel 17:41-44.
Long nau, Devit i stap olsem gutpela eksampel long pasin bilong bilip em yumi ken bihainim. Tingim olsem dispela yangpela man i singaut long Goliat: “Yu holim bainat na ol spia na yu kam pait long mi. Tasol mi kam pait long yu long nem bilong Bikpela I Gat Olgeta Strong, em God i bosim ol ami bilong mipela Israel. Em dispela God yu bin bikhet na tok bilas long en.” Devit i save olsem strong bilong man na ol samting ol i yusim bilong pait i samting nating. Goliat i no rispektim God Jehova, olsem na Jehova bai mekim sampela samting long bekim tok bilong em. Devit i tok: “Bikpela yet bai i winim dispela pait.”—1 Samuel 17:45-47.
Devit i luksave olsem Goliat i traipela man tru na em i gat ol samting bilong pait. Tasol Devit i no larim ol dispela samting i mekim em i pret. Em i no mekim wankain popaia olsem Sol na lain ami bilong em. Devit i no skelim em yet wantaim Goliat, nogat. Em i tingim strong bilong Goliat na strong bilong Jehova. Goliat em i longpela klostu 3 mita, em i traipela man tru winim olgeta man, tasol yu ting em i winim King bilong heven na graun? Nogat. Em i wankain olsem olgeta narapela man, em i olsem wanpela binatang em Jehova inap long bagarapim!
Devit i ron i go long bungim birua bilong em, na em i putim han i go long beg bilong em na kisim wanpela ston. Em i putim ston long katapel na tantanim strong. Goliat i wokabaut i go long Devit, na ating em i sanap baksait long man i holim hap plang bilong em. Tasol dispela man i no inap long haitim het bilong Goliat, long wanem, em i longpela man tru. Olsem na Devit i makim poret bilong Goliat.—1 Samuel 17:41.
Nau Devit i tromoi ston i go. Tingim, ol man i sanap na lukluk tasol taim ston i paitim poret bilong Goliat. Jehova i helpim Devit na em i no tromoi gen narapela ston. Ston i paitim stret poret bilong Goliat. Na dispela traipela man i pundaun long pes i go daun long graun! Man i holim hap plang bilong em i pret na ranawe. Devit i wokabaut i go long Goliat na kisim bainat bilong em na katim het bilong em.—1 Samuel 17:48-51.
Nau Sol na lain ami bilong em i strongim bel na ol i redi long pait. Ol i singaut bikmaus na ranim lain Filistia. Lain ami bilong Sol i winim pait olsem Devit i bin tok: “Bikpela yet bai . . . givim yupela olgeta long han bilong mipela.”—1 Samuel 17:47, 52, 53.
Long nau, ol wokman bilong God i no insait long wanpela pait tru. Dispela taim bilong pait i pinis. (Matyu 26:52) Maski i olsem, yumi laik bihainim pasin bilong Devit long bilip. Olsem Devit, yumi laik tingim Jehova olsem God i stap tru, na yumi laik daun long em na lotuim em wanpela tasol. Sampela taim, yumi pilim olsem yumi no inap long karim ol hevi bilong yumi, tasol Jehova i gat bikpela strong na em bai helpim yumi long karim ol hevi. Sapos Jehova i stap olsem God bilong yumi na yumi bilip long em olsem Devit i bin mekim, orait i no gat wanpela hevi o wanpela samting bai traim bilip bilong yumi na yumi lusim God. Tru tumas Jehova i gat olgeta strong winim bilong ol man!

Jisas Krais Em i Husat?
1. Laip bilong Jisas i kirap olsem wanem?
I no gat narapela man i olsem Jisas. Paslain long mama i karim em long graun, em i bin stap long heven olsem wanpela ensel. (Jon 8:23) Em i namba 1 samting God i bin wokim, na em i helpim God long wokim olgeta narapela samting. Jehova yet i bin wokim Jisas, olsem na i stret Baibel i kolim Jisas olsem “pikinini tru” bilong God. (Jon 1:14) Jisas i mekim wok olsem Mausman Bilong God, olsem na Baibel i kolim em “Tok.”
2. Bilong wanem Jisas i kam long graun?
God i salim Pikinini bilong em i kam long graun, em i kisim laip bilong Jisas long heven na putim long bel bilong wanpela meri Juda husat i no bin slip wantaim man, nem bilong em Maria. Olsem na Jisas i no gat wanpela papa bilong graun. (Luk 1:30-35) Jisas i kam long graun (1) bilong skulim ol manmeri long tok i tru bilong God, (2) bilong stap gutpela piksa long yumi long pasin bilong bihainim laik bilong God, long taim bilong hevi tu, na (3) bilong givim laip bilong em i gutpela olgeta olsem ofa bilong “baim bek” ol man.
3. Bilong wanem yumi mas i gat pe bilong baim bek yumi?
Dispela tok baim bek i makim pe bilong helpim man na bai em i no ken i dai. (Kisim Bek 21:29, 30) Em i no laik bilong God long pastaim tru long ol man i go lapun na dai, nogat. Olsem wanem yumi save long dispela? God i tokim namba 1 man Adam olsem sapos em i mekim sin, em bai i dai. Sapos Adam i no bin mekim sin, em i no inap i dai. (Stat 2:16, 17; 5:5) Baibel i tok dai “i kamap” long rot bilong Adam. Olsem na olgeta tumbuna pikinini bilong Adam i kamap bihain, ol i kisim sin na dai long em. Yumi mas i gat pe bilong baim bek yumi long dai em yumi bin kisim long Adam.
Husat inap givim pe bilong baim bek yumi long indai? Taim yumi dai, dispela em i pe bilong ol sin bilong yumi yet. Yumi ol man i no gutpela olgeta, olsem na yumi no inap baim bek ol narapela long sin bilong ol.
4. Bilong wanem Jisas i dai?
Jisas i gutpela olgeta, em i no olsem yumi. Olsem na em i no dai long sin bilong em yet—em i no bin mekim wanpela sin. Em i dai bilong baim bek sin bilong ol narapela. God i kamapim pasin bilong em long laikim tru ol manmeri, taim em i salim Pikinini bilong em i kam na i dai bilong helpim yumi. Na tu, Jisas i laikim tru yumi, na em i kamapim dispela long rot bilong bihainim ol tok bilong Papa bilong em, na em givim laip bilong em bilong baim bek sin bilong yumi.
5. Jisas i mekim wanem long nau?
Taim Jisas i stap long graun em i oraitim ol sikman, kirapim bek ol man i dai pinis, na helpim ol man i karim bikpela hevi. Em i kamapim long ples klia samting em bai mekim long bihain long olgeta man i bihainim tok bilong em. (Matyu 15:30, 31; Jon 5:28) Bihain long Jisas i dai, God i kirapim em bek olsem wanpela spirit. (1 Pita 3:18) Jisas i wet i stap long han sut bilong God inap long taim Jehova i givim strong long em bilong stap King na bosim olgeta hap bilong graun. (Hibru 10:12, 13) Nau Jisas i mekim wok King long heven, na ol disaipel bilong em i autim dispela gutpela nius long olgeta hap.
Klostu nau, Jisas bai yusim strong bilong em olsem King bilong pinisim olgeta pen na hevi, na ol manmeri husat i save kamapim ol dispela hevi. Olgeta man husat i bilip long Jisas na bihainim tok bilong em, ol bai kisim laip oltaim long Paradais long graun.

SAPTA 15
Pasin Bilong Lotu Em God i Orait Long En
Yu ting God i laikim olgeta lotu?
Olsem wanem yumi inap luksave long lotu i tru?
Husat i lotu tru long God long nau?
GOD JEHOVA i tingim tru yumi na em i laik bai yumi kisim helpim long gutpela pasin bilong em long stiaim yumi. Sapos yumi lotuim em long pasin i stret, bai yumi stap amamas na abrusim planti hevi. Bai yumi kisim tu blesing na helpim bilong em. (Aisaia 48:17) Tasol i gat planti handet lotu em ol i tok ol i save helpim ol man long kisim stretpela save long God. Tasol ol i gat narapela narapela tingting long God em i husat na em i laik bai yumi mas mekim wanem.
2 Olsem wanem yu inap save long stretpela pasin bilong lotuim Jehova? Yu no gat wok long stadi long tok bilong olgeta lotu na skelim narapela wantaim narapela. Yu mas lainim tasol ol tok Baibel i mekim long trupela lotu. Olsem: Long planti kantri i gat hevi long ol man i yusim giaman mani. Sapos ol i givim wok long yu long makim stret wanem mani em i giaman mani, bai yu mekim olsem wanem? Yu ting yu bai traim long tingim olgeta mak bilong giaman mani? Nogat. Gutpela moa sapos yu skelim gut mani tru. Taim yu save pinis long mani tru i luk olsem wanem, yu inap luksave long giaman mani. Na olsem tasol, taim yumi lain long olsem wanem yumi inap luksave long lotu i tru, yumi inap luksave long ol lotu giaman.
3 Em i bikpela samting long yumi lotuim Jehova long pasin em i orait long en. Planti man i ting God i laikim olgeta lotu, tasol Baibel i no tok olsem. Sapos man i tok em i wanpela Kristen, dispela samting tasol i no inap. Jisas i tok: “Yupela i no ken ting, olgeta manmeri i save kolim mi, ‘Bikpela, Bikpela,’ ol bai i go insait long kingdom bilong heven. Nogat. Man i bihainim laik bilong Papa bilong mi i stap long heven, em tasol bai i go insait long kingdom.” Olsem na bilong God i ken orait long yumi, yumi mas kisim save long ol samting God i tok yumi mas mekim na bihainim dispela tok. Jisas i kolim ol man husat i no mekim laik bilong God, olsem “ol man bilong mekim pasin nogut.” (Matyu 7:21-23) Olsem giaman mani, lotu giaman i no inap helpim man. Na kain lotu olsem inap nogutim man.
4 Jehova i opim rot long olgeta man i ken kisim laip oltaim. Tasol bilong kisim laip oltaim long Paradais, yumi mas lotuim God long pasin i stret na wokabaut long pasin em i orait long en. Sori tru, planti man i no laik mekim olsem. Olsem na Jisas i mekim dispela tok: “Yupela i mas i go insait long liklik dua. Dua i go long ples bilong lus, em i bikpela, na rot i go long dispela ples em i op tumas na em i isi long bihainim. Na planti manmeri i save bihainim dispela rot. Tasol dua i go long ples bilong kisim laip, em i liklik tru, na rot i go long dispela ples em i hat tru long bihainim. Na wanpela wanpela manmeri tasol i save lukim na bihainim dispela rot.” (Matyu 7:13, 14) Lotu i tru i bringim ol man long laip oltaim. Lotu giaman i bringim ol man long ples bilong lus. Jehova i no laik bai wanpela man i kisim bagarap, olsem na em i givim rot long ol man long olgeta hap i ken kisim save long em. (2 Pita 3:9) Olsem na pasin bilong yumi long lotuim God inap mekim na yumi kisim laip o yumi dai.
ROT BILONG LUKSAVE LONG LOTU I TRU
5 Olsem wanem yumi inap painim ‘rot i go long laip’? Jisas i tok lotu i tru bai stap ples klia long wokabaut bilong ol man i bihainim dispela lotu. Em i tok: “Yupela lukim pasin bilong ol na bai yupela i save,…Olgeta gutpela diwai i save karim gutpela kaikai.” (Matyu 7:16, 17) Olsem na yumi inap luksave long ol man i bihainim lotu i tru long rot bilong ol bilip na pasin bilong ol. Ol i gat sin na ol i save popaia, tasol olsem wanpela lain, ol man i lotu tru long God ol i traim long mekim laik bilong God. Orait nau yumi ken skelim sikspela samting i olsem mak bilong ol man i bihainim lotu i tru.
OL MAN I LOTU LONG TRUPELA GOD
- Baibel i as bilong ol tok ol i autim
- ol i lotuim Jehova tasol na autim nem bilong em
- narapela i laikim tru narapela
- ol i bilip olsem Jisas em i rot bilong God long kisim bek ol man
- ol i no bilong dispela graun
- ol i autim tok olsem Kingdom Bilong God tasol inap pinisim ol hevi
6Baibel i as bilong ol tok ol wokman bilong God i autim. Baibel yet i tok: “Spirit bilong God yet i bin kamapim olgeta tok i stap long buk bilong God. Na dispela tok em i gutpela samting tru bilong skulim yumi long tok tru na bilong stretim ol manmeri tingting bilong ol i no stret na bilong stretim wokabaut bilong yumi na bilong skulim yumi long ol pasin i stret long ai bilong God. Olsem na dispela tok i mekim yumi ol manmeri bilong God i kisim tru olgeta gutpela pasin, na em i mekim yumi i redi long mekim olgeta kain gutpela wok.” (2 Timoti 3:16, 17) Aposel Pol i tokim ol wanlain Kristen: “Taim yupela i kisim tok bilong God long maus bilong mipela, yupela i no kisim olsem tok bilong man. Nogat. Yupela i kisim olsem tok tru bilong God.” (1 Tesalonaika 2:13) Olsem na tingting bilong ol man o pasin bilong ples i no as bilong ol bilip na pasin bilong lotu i tru. Tok Bilong God, Baibel, i as bilong en.
7 Ol tok Jisas Krais i lainim ol man long en i kam long Baibel, na em i stap gutpela piksa long dispela samting. Em i beten long Papa bilong em long heven na i tok: “Tok bilong yu i tru olgeta.” (Jon 17:17) Jisas i bilip long Baibel, na olgeta samting em i lainim ol man long en i stret wantaim tok bilong Baibel. Planti taim Jisas i tok: “Buk bilong God i gat tok olsem.” (Matyu 4:4, 7, 10) Na em i kolim tok bilong skripsa. Na olsem tasol, lain bilong God long nau i no skulim ol manmeri long sampela tingting bilong ol yet. Ol i bilip olsem Baibel em i Tok Bilong God, na tok bilong Baibel i as bilong ol tok ol i autim.
8Ol man i bihainim lotu i tru, ol i lotu long Jehova tasol na ol i kamapim nem bilong em. Jisas i tok: “Yu mas aninit long God [“Jehova,” NW ], Bikpela bilong yu. Na yu mas lotu long em wanpela tasol.” (Matyu 4:10) Olsem na ol wokman bilong God i lotuim Jehova tasol. Ol i helpim ol manmeri long save long nem bilong trupela God na ol pasin bilong em. Song 83:18 (NW ) i tok: “Yu, nem bilong yu Jehova, yu wanpela tasol yu God Antap Tru na yu bosim olgeta hap bilong graun.” Jisas i stap gutpela piksa long pasin bilong helpim ol narapela long save long God, olsem em i tokaut long en long beten: “Mi autim pinis nem bilong yu long ol man yu bin givim mi long dispela graun.” (Jon 17:6) Na olsem tasol, ol man i lotu tru long God ol i lainim ol narapela man long nem bilong God, ol samting em bai mekim, na ol pasin bilong em.
9Insait long lain bilong God narapela i laikim tru narapela na i no tingim em yet tasol. Jisas i tok: “Sapos yupela wan wan i laikim tru ol arapela man bilong lain bilong mi, orait dispela bai i soim olgeta man olsem, yupela i disaipel bilong mi.” (Jon 13:35) Ol Kristen bilong bipo i gat dispela kain pasin bilong laikim narapela narapela. Pasin laikim em God i tok yumi mas kamapim i no tingim skin, namba, kantri bilong man, na dispela pasin laikim i mekim ol man i pas gut tru wantaim olsem wanpela lain brata i no inap bruk bruk. (Kolosi 3:14) Ol lain bilong lotu giaman i no gat dispela kain gutpela lain brata. Olsem wanem yumi save long dispela? Pasin bilong birua long narapela kantri o skin i mekim na wanbilip i kilim i dai wanbilip. Ol Kristen tru i no save holim gan samting bilong kilim i dai brata Kristen bilong ol o ol narapela man. Baibel i tok: “Sapos yumi laik save husat em i pikinini bilong God, na husat em i pikinini bilong Satan, orait yumi ken save olsem, man i no mekim stretpela pasin, em i no bilong God. Na man i no save laikim tru ol arapela pikinini bilong God, em tu i no bilong God.…Yumi wan wan i mas laikim tru ol arapela. Yumi no ken i stap olsem Kein. Em i man bilong Satan, na em i kilim i dai brata bilong en.”—1 Jon 3:10-12; 4:20, 21.
10 Pasin laikim i as na narapela i no kilim i dai narapela, tasol dispela pasin i kirapim ol trupela Kristen long mekim ol arapela samting tu. Ol trupela Kristen i save givim taim, strong, na mani samting bilong ol bilong helpim na strongim bel bilong ol narapela. (Hibru 10:24, 25) Ol i save helpim ol wanbilip long taim bilong hevi, na ol i no save giamanim ol. Ol i bihainim ol dispela tok bilong Baibel, olsem “mekim gutpela pasin long ol arapela.”—Galesia 6:10.
11Ol Kristen tru i bilip olsem Jisas Krais em i rot bilong God long kisim bek ol man. Baibel i tok: “I no gat narapela man i inap kisim bek yumi. Nogat. Long nem bilong Jisas wanpela tasol yumi olgeta manmeri bilong graun inap i stap gut. Em wanpela tasol God i bin makim bilong kisim bek yumi.” (Aposel 4:12) Olsem yumi lukim long Sapta 5, Jisas i givim laip bilong em olsem pe bilong baim bek ol man i harim tok. (Matyu 20:28) Na tu, God i bin makim Jisas long i stap King long Kingdom bilong heven, em dispela Kingdom bai bosim graun olgeta. Na bilong yumi ken kisim laip oltaim, God i laik bai yumi bihainim ol tok Jisas i lainim ol man long en. Olsem na Baibel i tok: “Man i bilip long Pikinini, em i gat laip i stap gut oltaim oltaim. Tasol man i no bihainim tok bilong Pikinini, em bai i no inap kisim laip.”—Jon 3:36.
12Ol man i lotu tru long God ol i no bilong dispela graun. Taim Jisas i sanap long kot long ai bilong Pailat, bikman bilong Rom, Jisas i tok: “Kingdom bilong mi em i no bilong dispela graun.” (Jon 18:36) Maski ol disaipel bilong Jisas i stap long wanem kantri, ol i stap aninit long Kingdom bilong em long heven, olsem na ol i no insait long ol wok politik bilong dispela graun. Ol i no insait long ol pait bilong dispela graun. Tasol ol man i lotuim Jehova ol i no pasim ol narapela long joinim wanpela politikol pati, o sanap long eleksen, o votim man. I tru ol man i lotu tru long God ol i no insait long wok politik, tasol ol i save bihainim ol lo bilong kantri. Bilong wanem? Long wanem, Baibel i tokim ol long “stap aninit long ol gavman.” (Rom 13:1) Taim lo bilong gavman i pait wantaim lo bilong God, ol man i lotu tru long God ol bai bihainim pasin bilong ol aposel em ol i bin mekim dispela tok: “Mipela i mas bihainim tok bilong God tasol. Mipela i no ken bihainim tok bilong ol man.”—Aposel 5:29; Mak 12:17.
13Ol disaipel tru bilong Jisas i autim tok olsem Kingdom Bilong God tasol inap pinisim ol hevi. Jisas i tok profet: “Bai ol i autim dispela gutnius bilong kingdom bilong God long olgeta hap bilong graun, bai olgeta lain manmeri i ken harim, na bihain tasol bai las de i kamap.” (Matyu 24:14) Ol i no kirapim ol man long bilip olsem ol bikman bilong graun inap pinisim ol hevi, nogat, ol disaipel tru bilong Jisas Krais i autim tok olsem Kingdom Bilong God long heven tasol inap mekim olsem. (Song 146:3) Jisas i lainim yumi long beten long nambawan gutpela gavman i mas i kam, taim em i tok: “Kingdom bilong yu i mas i kam. Mipela i mas bihainim laik bilong yu long graun olsem ol i save bihainim long heven.” (Matyu 6:10) Baibel i tok profet olsem dispela Kingdom “bai i daunim ol na bagarapim ol arapela king [i stap nau] na kingdom bilong en bai i stap oltaim.”—Daniel 2:44.
14 Tingim ol dispela tok yumi skelim pinis na askim yu yet: ‘Wanem lotu i save kisim olgeta tok bilong en long Baibel na i autim nem bilong Jehova? Wanem lain i laikim ol narapela olsem God i tokim yumi long mekim, na i bilip long Jisas, na i no bilong dispela graun, na i autim tok olsem Kingdom Bilong God tasol inap pinisim ol hevi? Long olgeta lotu i stap long graun, wanem lotu em inapim ol dispela mak?’ Ol samting i kamapim klia olsem em ol Witnes Bilong Jehova.—Aisaia 43:10-12.
YU BAI MEKIM WANEM?
15 Bilong mekim God i amamas, i no inap long yumi bilip tasol olsem em i stap. Baibel i tok ol spirit nogut tu i save bilip olsem God i stap. (Jems 2:19) Tasol ol i no save bihainim laik bilong God na God i no orait long ol. Bilong God i ken orait long yumi, yumi mas bilip olsem em i stap, na tu, yumi mas bihainim laik bilong em. Yumi mas lusim tu lotu giaman na kirap bihainim lotu i tru.
16 Aposel Pol i soim olsem yumi no ken insait long ol lotu giaman. Em i tok: “Bikpela i tok moa olsem, ‘Yupela i mas lusim ol, na i go i stap long narapela hap. Na yupela i mas lukaut gut, nogut yupela i pas long ol samting i no klin long ai bilong God. Na bai mi yet mi kisim yupela.’ ” (2 Korin 6:17; Aisaia 52:11) Olsem na ol Kristen tru i sakim olgeta samting i insait long lotu giaman.
17 Baibel i soim olsem olgeta kain lotu giaman i hap bilong ‘Bikpela Babilon.’* (KTH 17:5) Dispela nem i kirapim yumi long tingim taun Babilon bilong bipo, we lotu giaman i bin kirap long en bihain long Bikpela Tait long taim bilong Noa. Planti bilip na pasin bilong ol lotu giaman long nau i kirap long bipo yet long Babilon. Olsem: Ol Babilon i bin lotuim ol god triwan. Long nau wanpela bikpela bilip bilong planti lotu em God Triwan. Tasol Baibel i kamapim klia olsem i gat wanpela trupela God tasol, em Jehova, na Jisas Krais em i Pikinini bilong em. (Jon 17:3) Ol Babilon i bilip tu olsem taim man i dai, em i gat wanpela spirit i stap laip yet na spirit inap pilim bikpela pen long ples paia. Long nau, planti lotu i save lainim ol man long dispela kain tok.
18 Lotu bilong ol Babilon bilong bipo i bin go long olgeta hap, olsem na Bikpela Babilon long nau i makim olgeta lotu giaman long graun. Na God i bin tok profet olsem olgeta lotu giaman bai pinis wantu. (KTH 18:8) Olsem wanem? Yu inap luksave long as na em i bikpela samting long yu mas lusim olgeta samting bilong Bikpela Babilon? God Jehova i laik bai yu “lusim dispela ples” hariap, taim haptaim i stap yet bilong mekim olsem.—KTH 18:4.
19 Sapos yu lusim lotu giaman, ating sampela bai no laik poroman moa wantaim yu. Tasol taim yu mekim wok bilong Jehova wantaim lain bilong em, bai yu kisim planti samting, winim ol samting yu lusim. Olsem ol disaipel bilong Jisas long bipo em ol i bin lusim ol samting na bai ol i ken bihainim lek bilong Jisas, yu tu bai kisim planti brata na sista bilong spirit. Yu bai insait long wanpela bikpela famili bilong planti milion trupela Kristen em ol i stap long olgeta hap na ol i laikim yu tru. Na yu inap wet long kisim gutpela samting, em laip oltaim “long taim i laik kamap bihain.” (Mak 10:28-30) Ating bihain, ol man husat i no laikim ol bilip bilong yu na i lusim yu, ol bai skelim tok bilong Baibel na ol tu bai kirap lotuim Jehova.
20 Baibel i tok klostu nau God bai pinisim pasin nogut bilong nau na kamapim nupela taim i gat stretpela pasin long en aninit long Kingdom bilong em. (2 Pita 3:9, 13) Dispela nupela taim bai i gutpela tru! Na long dispela nupela taim bai i gat wanpela lotu tasol, wanpela trupela lotu. Em i savetingting long yu mekim ol samting long nau bambai yu ken bung wantaim ol lain i lotu tru long God.
