Hasband: [Kros and singaot big] “Mi barava les taem olketa gele no askem mi firstaem bifor olketa spendem selen! Hao nao iu no askem mi firstaem?”
OLKETA wanem problem nao datfala hasband and waef mas stretem? Hasband hia savve kros kwiktaem. Tufala no agree long wanem pikinini savve duim and no savve duim. Luk olsem tufala hia no story gud tugeta.
Evriwan wea marit bae garem problem. Nomata sapos problem hem big or smol, hasband and waef mas lane hao for stretem olketa problem. Hao nao olsem?
Gogo, olketa problem wea hasband and waef no stretem savve stopem wei for story tugeta. King Solomon wea garem gudfala savve hem talem olsem: “Samfala raoa kamap olsem haf iron wea satem door bilong wanfala taoa.” (Proverbs 18:19) Hao nao iutufala savve openem datfala door for story gud tugeta and stretem olketa problem?
Hem tru wanfala hasband and waef mas story gud tugeta for tufala hapi, bat for barava hapi tufala mas showimaot love and respect. (Ephesians 5:
Fofala Wei for Stretem Olketa Problem
Ting raonem fofala wei hia and hao Bible savve helpem iu for stretem olketa problem taem iu showimaot love and respect.
1. Markem taem for storyim problem.
“Evri samting garem wanfala taem wea set finis, . . . taem for stap kwaet and taem for toktok.” (Ecclesiastes 3:
“Taem for toktok” hem stap tu. Olsem rabis grass savve kamap big seleva, olketa problem tu savve kamap big seleva. So no ting nating long wanfala problem and tingse hem bae finis seleva. Sapos iu stopem story, respectim narawan and markem narafala taem for gohed storyim datfala problem. Diswan bae helpem iutufala for followim disfala toktok long Bible: “No gohed kros taem sun hem go daon.” (Ephesians 4:
TRAEM DISWAN: Markem taem evri week for storyim eni problem wea famili garem. Hem gud for iutufala agree for no storyim problem long taem wea iutufala luksavve narawan savve kros kwiktaem, olsem taem iu kam bak from waka or bifor iu kaikai. Bat markem taem wea iutufala savve story gud tugeta.
2. Talemaot stret tingting bilong iu and showimaot respect.
“Iufala mas tok tru long neiba bilong [iufala].” (Ephesians 4:
Taem iu storyim wanfala problem witim hasband or waef bilong iu, tingim hao datfala taem hem no for raoa, bat for talemaot tingting bilong iu. For duim datwan, storyim wanem problem nao iu tingim, wanem taem nao datwan savve kamap, and storyim hao nao feeling bilong iu abaotem datfala problem. Tingim diswan, sapos iu no laekem wei wea hasband bilong iu putim dirty kaleko bilong hem olobaot, story gud long hem olsem, ‘Taem iu kam bak from waka and iu putim kaleko olobaot [taem and wanem abaotem datfala problem], hem olsem iu nating tinghae long waka wea mi duim for klinim haos [hao nao feeling bilong iu].’ Long gudfala wei storyim tingting bilong iu abaotem hao for stretem datfala problem.
TRAEM DISWAN: For mekem iu storyim gud datfala problem long hasband or waef bilong iu, raetem long wanfala pepa datfala problem and hao iu laek for stretem.
3. Herehere and luksavve long feeling.
Disaepol James talem olketa Christian for “kwiktaem for herehere, slow for toktok, slow for kros.” (James 1:
Wolfgang wea marit for 35 year hem talem olsem: “Taem mitufala waef storyim problem, mi savve feel nogud lelebet taem mi tingse hem no minim gud tingting bilong mi.” Dianna wea marit for 20 year talem olsem: “Mi savve talem hasband bilong mi hao hem olsem hem no herem mi taem mitufala storyim problem.” Hao nao iu savve winim datfala problem?
No tingse iu savve long tingting or feeling bilong hasband or waef bilong iu. Bible talem olsem: “Man wea praod mekem raoa kamap, bat olketa wea story tugeta garem bigfala savve.” (Proverbs 13:10) Respectim hasband or waef bilong iu and no katem story taem hem talemaot tingting bilong hem. Maet iu storyim moa long toktok bilong iuseleva wanem hasband or waef talem, for showimaot iu minim samting wea hem talem and trae for no kros or tok spoelem hem. Letem hem stretem iu sapos iu no minim gud samting wea hem talem. No wanfala nomoa for story. Traem diskaen wei for story gogo iutufala evriwan luksavve long tingting and feeling bilong narawan.
Hasband or waef mas hambol and patient for herehere gud and for showimaot hem minim wanem narawan talem. Sapos iu duim olsem long hasband or waef bilong iu, bae hem tu laek for duim olsem.
TRAEM DISWAN: Taem iu storyim moa toktok wea hasband or waef bilong iu talem, no iusim sem toktok wea hem talem. Trae for storyim long kaenfala wei, wanem iu tingse hasband or waef talem and tingim.—1 Peter 3:8.
4. Agree long hao for stretem problem.
“Tufala nao gud winim wanfala, bikos tufala bae kasem gud samting from hard waka bilong tufala. From sapos wanfala hem foldaon, narawan savve helpem hem for standap.” (Ecclesiastes 4:
Jehovah markem hasband for hed long famili. (1 Corinthians 11:3; Ephesians 5:
TRAEM DISWAN: Raetem long wanfala pepa olketa difren wei wea iutufala tingim for stretem wanfala problem. Taem iutufala no savve tingim eni samting moa for raetem, lukluk long wanem iutufala raetem and chusim wanfala wei for stretem problem wea iutufala agree long hem. Markem taem for iutufala storyim sapos datfala wei for stretem wanfala problem wea iutufala chusim hem waka or nomoa.
Waka Tugeta
Jesus storyim hao marit hem olsem wanfala yoke. (Matthew 19:6) Long taem wea Jesus stap long earth, yoke hem wanfala pis timba wea olketa taengem long tufala animal for duim wanfala waka. Sapos tufala animal hia no waka gud tugeta, datfala yoke bae spoelem nek bilong tufala. Bat sapos tufala waka gud tugeta, tufala savve pullim hevi samting or pullim hou for digim wanfala big garden.
Hasband and waef wea no waka tugeta no savve hapi. Bat sapos tufala waka gud tugeta, tufala savve stretem staka problem and duim staka gud samting. Wanfala marit man wea nem bilong hem Kalala talem olsem: “For 25 year mitufala stretem problem long wei for talemaot stret tingting bilong mitufala, tingim feeling bilong narawan, prea long Jehovah for help, and followim wanem Bible talem.” Waswe, iu savve duim olsem tu?
ASKEM IUSELEVA . . .
Wanem kaen problem nao mi laek storyim witim hasband or waef bilong mi?
Wanem nao mi savve duim for minim gud tingting bilong hasband or waef bilong mi?
Sapos mi evritaem forcem hasband or waef bilong mi for duim wanem miseleva laekem, wanem kaen problem nao savve kamap?

CHAPTER 87
Iusim Gudfala Tingting and Plan for Future
TOKPIKSA ABAOTEM WAKAMAN WEA NO RAETEOUS
IUSIM OLKETA RICHES FOR “FREN WITIM OLKETA NARAWAN”
Jesus just storyim nomoa tokpiksa abaotem son wea lus. Olketa wea tekem tax, olketa man wea teachim law, and olketa Pharisee wea herem datfala tokpiksa shud luksavve God hem willing for forgivim pipol wea sin and wea repent. (Luke 15:1-7, 11) Distaem Jesus storyim wanfala tokpiksa for olketa disaepol bilong hem. Hem story abaotem wanfala rich man wea faendaot wakaman wea lukaftarem evri samting long haos bilong hem duim samting wea no stret.
Jesus sei datfala rich man faendaot wakaman hia spoelem selen bilong hem. So hem sei bae hem finisim hem from waka bilong hem. Then datfala wakaman hem tingting olsem: “Boss bilong mi bae finisim mi from waka, so wanem nao bae mi duim? Distaem mi no strong nao for waka long garden, and mi shame tu for askem selen long eniwan. Ating mi savve nao wanem mi bae duim, mekem taem mi finis from disfala waka pipol bae welkamim mi long haos bilong olketa.” Hem kolem kam evriwan wea garem kaon long boss bilong hem, and sei long olketa: “Haomas samting nao iu kaonem long boss bilong mi?”—Luke 16:3-5.
First wan hem sei: “Six handred gallon olive oil.” Datwan hem samting olsem 2,200 liter. Maet datfala man garem bigfala planteison bilong olketa olive tree or hem wanfala bisnisman wea salem oil. Datfala wakaman sei long hem: “Tekem bak disfala pepa wea showim kaon bilong iu and kwiktaem changem for 300 gallon.”—Luke 16:6.
Datfala wakaman sei long narawan: “Waswe iu, haomas samting nao iu kaonem?” Hem sei: “Wan handred bag wheat.” Wakaman hia sei long hem: “Tekem bak disfala pepa wea showim kaon bilong iu and changem for 80 bag.”—Luke 16:7.
Datfala wakaman garem paoa for daonem kaon bilong olketa bikos hem lukaftarem yet selen bilong boss bilong hem. Hem duim olsem for fren witim pipol wea maet helpem hem bihaen hem finis from waka bilong hem.
Gogo, boss hem savve long wanem hem happen. Nomata hem savve bae hem lusim selen from datwan, hem barava tinghae long wakaman hia and Jesus sei hem praisem hem bikos “nomata hem no raeteous, hem duim samting wea wise.” Jesus sei moa: “Pipol distaem garem gudfala tingting winim pipol wea stap long laet saed long hao for stap gud witim nara pipol.”—Luke 16:8.
Jesus no acceptim wanem datfala wakaman duim, and hem no teachim olketa disaepol for no honest taem olketa duim bisnis. So why nao Jesus tok olsem? Hem sei: “Iusim olketa riches bilong iufala long disfala world for fren witim olketa narawan, mekem taem olketa riches bilong iufala hem finis, bae olketa fren hia welkamim iufala long olketa ples wea iufala bae stap for olowe.” (Luke 16:9) Diswan minim olketa wea worshipim God, wea olketa nao “pipol wea stap long laet,” mas luksavve long wanem bae happen long future and iusim gudfala tingting. Olketa hia mas tingim hope bilong olketa for laef olowe taem olketa iusim gud olketa material samting wea olketa garem.
Jehovah God and Son bilong hem nomoa savve welkamim man long Kingdom long heven or long Paradaes long earth. Iumi mas traem best for fren gud witim tufala and iusim olketa material samting wea iumi garem for sapotim Kingdom. Sapos iumi duim olsem, bae iumi kasem laef olowe taem gold, silver, and olketa nara material samting hem finis.
Jesus sei tu olketa wea faithful for lukaftarem and iusim olketa riches or material samting wea olketa garem bae faithful for lukaftarem olketa samting wea moa important. Jesus sei: “So sapos iufala showimaot iufala no faithful for iusim olketa riches long disfala world, no eniwan bae trustim iufala for lukaftarem olketa riches wea tru [olketa responsibility wea God givim long pipol bilong hem].”—Luke 16:11.
So for olketa disaepol kasem ‘olketa ples wea olketa bae stap for olowe,’ olketa mas barava faithful. Man no savve worshipim God and long semtaem busy for aftarem olketa material samting. Jesus sei: “No eniwan savve waka for tufala boss, bikos bae hem heitim narawan and lovem narawan, or bae hem faithful long narawan and ting daonem narawan. Iufala no savve worshipim God and long semtaem busy for kasem staka selen.”—Luke 16:9, 13.

Olketa Young Wan, Strongim Faith Bilong Iufala
“Faith hem kliafala pruv wea showimaot samting wea man hope long hem, hem tru, nomata hem no savve lukim datwan.”—HEB. 11:1.
SONG: 41, 69
1, 2. Wanem hevi nao olketa young wan kasem distaem, and hao nao olketa savve deal witim datwan?
CLASSMATE bilong wanfala young sista long Britain sei long hem: “Gele wea kleva olsem iu shud no biliv God hem stap.” Wanfala young brata long Germany hem sei: “Olketa teacher bilong mi sei story long Bible abaotem creation hem laea nomoa. And olketa tingse evri student bilivim evolution.” Wanfala young sista long France sei: “Olketa teacher long skul sapraes tumas for savve nomata distaem samfala student biliv yet long Bible.”
2 Sapos iu wanfala young wan wea iu worshipim Jehovah or iu studyim Bible, waswe, iu kasem hevi for bilivim evolution and for no bilivim God nao wakem evri samting? Sapos olsem, iu savve duim samting for strongim faith bilong iu. Bible encouragem iumi for tingting gud abaotem wanem iumi herem or readim. Hem sei: “Gudfala tingting and wei for luksavve bae protectim iu.” Long wanem wei? Hem bae helpem iu for no bilivim olketa laea teaching, and for strongim faith bilong iu long Jehovah.—Readim Proverbs 2:10-12.
3. Wanem nao bae iumi storyim long disfala study?

WANEM IU SAVVE DUIM FOR STRONGIM FAITH BILONG IU
4. Wanem nao hem klosap semsem long wei for bilivim evolution and wei for bilivim creation? So wanem nao iumi evriwan mas duim?
4 Maet samwan sei long iu, “Mi bilivim evolution bikos olketa scientist sei hem tru. Hao nao iu bilivim God hem stap sapos no eniwan lukim hem enitaem?” Hem nao tingting bilong staka pipol. Hem tru, no eniwan long iumi hem lukim God or lukim taem hem wakem wanfala samting. (John 1:18) Bat waswe long pipol wea bilivim evolution? Olketa tu bilivim samting wea olketa no lukim. No eni scientist or eni man lukim wanfala samting wea hem laef hem isisi change for kamap nara samting. Olsem example, no eniwan lukim wanfala monkey hem isisi change for kamap wanfala man. (Job 38:1, 4) So iumi evriwan mas lukluk gud long olketa pruv wea stap, and ting raonem gud mekem iumi luksavve long wanem nao hem stret. Staka pipol studyim nature and “luksavve” wanfala God hem stap. Olketa luksavve hem nao wakem evri samting hia, hem garem bigfala paoa, and hem garem olketa nambawan wei.—Rome 1:20.
5. Wanem nao iumi savve lanem abaotem creation long samfala pablikeson bilong iumi?
5 Taem iumi lukluk long olketa samting long nature and barava ting raonem, iumi bae luksavve olketa samting hia barava spesol. “From iumi garem faith iumi luksavve” wanfala Creator hem stap nomata iumi no lukim hem.

(Heb. 11:3, 27) Iumi savve lanem staka samting abaotem olketa samting wea hem wakem taem iumi readim wanem olketa scientist faendemaot abaotem nature. Samfala information hia stap long video The Wonders of Creation Reveal God’s Glory, and tufala brochure Was Life Created? and The Origin of Life—Five Questions Worth Asking, and datfala buk Is There a Creator Who Cares About You? Long olketa Awake! magasin, iumi savve readim tu olketa interview bilong olketa scientist and olketa narawan wea storyim hao nao gogo olketa biliv long God.

Olketa scientist wea designim olketa samting followim nature olketa savve tumas, bat wanem olketa designim hem no kasem hao God designim olketa samting.” Long South Africa, parents bilong wanfala gele wea 15 year sei: “First article wea gele bilong mifala savve readim long olketa Awake! magasin nao hem datfala ‘Interview’ article.” Olketa pablikeson hia savve helpem iu tu for pruvim wanfala Creator hem stap, and for iu luksavve and no followim olketa laea teaching. Taem iu duim olsem, faith bilong iu bae barava strong and iu bae olsem tree wea rut bilong hem stap deep insaed long graon wea no foldaon nomata hem big wind.—Jer. 17:5-8.
BILIVIM WANEM BIBLE TALEM
7. Why nao God laekem iu for pruvim wanem Bible talem hem tru?
7 Waswe, hem rong for kwestinim sapos wanem Bible talem hem tru? Nomoa. Jehovah no laekem iu for bilivim nomoa samting wea olketa narawan bilivim. Hem laekem iuseleva for “chekim evri samting” mekem iu savve pruvim wanem Bible talem hem tru and hem kam from God. Taem iu savve gud long Bible, datwan bae strongim faith bilong iu long wanem Bible talem. (Readim 1 Thessalonica 5:21; 1 Timothy 2:4.) Wanfala wei for savve gud long Bible hem for studyim samfala subject wea iu laek for savve samfala samting moa abaotem.

Or maet olketa laek for comparem wanem Bible talem witim wanem olketa savveman wea studyim olketa oldfala samting bifor olketa talem, or wanem olketa savveman saed long history and science olketa talem. Olsem example, wanfala profesi nao hem Genesis 3:15. Jehovah talem datfala profesi no longtaem bihaen Adam and Eve againstim Jehovah and les for stap anda long rul bilong hem. Disfala profesi hem join witim staka nara profesi wea helpem iumi for minim wanem Kingdom bilong God bae duim for pruvim God nomoa fit for rul, and wanem hem bae duim for finisim evri nogud samting.

Diswan bae helpem iu for luksavve holy spirit bilong Jehovah nao leadim olketa man hia.—2 Pet. 1:21.
9 Wanfala brata long Germany ting raonem hao evri buk long Bible storyim samting wea join witim Kingdom. Hem sei: “Mi sapraes long datwan bikos 40-fala difren man nao raetem Bible. And staka long olketa laef long olketa difren taem, and olketa no savve long each other.” Wanfala sista long Australia studyim wanfala article insaed long Wastaoa bilong December 15, 2013 wea storyim mining bilong Pasova. Hem lanem hao datfala spesol celebration hem join witim Genesis 3:15 and witim Jesus. Hem sei: “Datfala study article helpem mi for luksavve Jehovah hem barava nambawan God.

Diswan strongim faith bilong hem and hem fren gud witim Jehovah.—Matt. 13:23.
10. From olketa man wea raetem Bible olketa honest, wanem nao datwan showimaot?
10 Tingim tu wei wea olketa man wea raetem Bible olketa honest. Olketa no hol bak for storyim tru samting wea happen. Samfala man wea raet wea stap laef long datfala taem storyim nomoa olketa gud samting abaotem kantri and olketa leader bilong olketa. Bat olketa profet bilong Jehovah raet abaotem olketa gud samting and nogud samting wea pipol long Israel and olketa king bilong olketa duim. (2 Chron. 16:9, 10; 24:18-22) Olketa storyim tu rong samting wea olketa seleva duim, and wea olketa narawan wea worshipim Jehovah olketa duim. (2 Sam. 12:1-14; Mark 14:50) Wanfala young brata long Britain sei: “Wei for honest olsem hem samting wea staka pipol for raet olketa no savve duim. Diswan mekem iumi barava sure Jehovah nao givim kam Bible.”
11. Hao nao advaes insaed long Bible pruvim God nao givim kam Bible?
11 Taem pipol followim advaes long Bible long laef bilong olketa, olketa kasem gud samting. Diswan mekem olketa barava sure God nao givim kam Bible. (Readim Psalm 19:7-11.) Wanfala young sista long Japan sei: “Taem famili bilong mifala followim wanem Bible talem, mifala barava hapi. Mifala stap gud tugeta, wan mind, and showimaot love long each other.” Bible hem helpem staka pipol for luksavve samfala samting wea olketa bilivim hem no tru. (Ps. 115:3-8) Bible helpem pipol for depend long Jehovah, wea hem nao Olmaeti God. And tu, Bible storyim olketa nambawan promis for future. Bat pipol wea bilivim evolution mekem olketa samting long nature nao for kamap god bilong olketa. Olketa narawan sei gavman bilong man nao bae duim samting for mekem pipol garem gudfala future. Bat kam kasem distaem, olketa gavman hia no fit for stretem olketa problem long world.—Ps. 146:3, 4.
STORY GUD WITIM OLKETA NARAWAN
12, 13. Wanem nao wanfala gudfala wei for storyim creation and Bible long olketa narawan?
12 Taem iu story long olketa narawan abaotem creation and abaotem Bible, hem gud for savve long tingting bilong olketa firstaem. Samfala wea bilivim evolution olketa biliv wanfala God hem stap. Olketa sei God nao startim evolution for wakem evri samting wea laef. Samfala narawan sei masbi evolution hem tru bikos hem nao wanem olketa teachim long olketa skul. And samfala pipol wea biliv long God bifor olketa no biliv long hem nao distaem bikos long olketa nogud samting wea olketa religion duim. So taem iu story witim samwan, hem gud for faendemaot wanem hem bilivim and why hem bilivim datwan. Then lisin gud long wanem hem talem. Sapos iu duim olsem, maet bae hem willing for lisin long iu tu.—Titus 3:2.
13 Sapos samwan sei hem krangge samting for bilivim God nao wakem evri samting, hao nao bae iu story long hem? Askem hem long kaenfala wei for explainim hao nao laef hem start. Iu savve sei sapos evri samting wea laef hem kamap seleva, firstfala samting wea laef, example nao wanfala cell, mas fit for gohed wakem olketa nara cell wea semsem olsem hem tu. Wanfala professor long chemistry sei for cell hia gohed laef hem mas (1) garem samting olsem skin for protectim hem, (2) fit for kasem paoa and iusim datwan, (3) garem information wea bae kontrolem lukluk and hao hem bae grow, and (4) fit for copyim datfala information. Datfala professor sei tu: “Nomata wanfala barava smol samting wea laef bat hem needim staka samting for mekem hem gohed laef.”
14. Wanem tokpiksa nao iu savve iusim for story abaotem creation?
14 Taem iu story abaotem creation long samwan, iu savve storyim tokpiksa wea aposol Paul iusim. Hem sei: “Iumi savve, evri haos man nao wakem, bat man wea wakem evri samting hem God.” (Heb. 3:4) Wanfala haos samwan nao mas designim and wakem. So olketa samting wea laef, wea design bilong olketa hem winim wanfala haos, samwan nao mas designim and wakem. Iu savve iusim tu olketa pablikeson bilong iumi for explainim diswan. Wanfala sista story witim wanfala young man wea no bilivim eni God hem stap. Hem givim hem tufala brochure wea iumi storyim long paragraf 5, and samting olsem wanfala week bihaen, datfala man sei: “Distaem nao mi bilivim God hem stap.” Datfala young man studyim Bible and gogo hem kamap spiritual brata bilong iumi.
15, 16. Wanem nao gudfala wei for story witim narawan abaotem Bible, and wanem nao goal bilong iumi?
15 Sapos samwan hem no sure wanem Bible talem hem tru, hao nao u savve story gud witim hem? Hem gud for faendemaot wanem hem bilivim, and wanem hem interest long hem. (Prov. 18:13) Sapos hem interest long science, storyim samfala example long Bible wea showimaot taem Bible storyim samting wea join witim science, wanem Bible talem hem tru. Sapos man hia interest long history, iu savve storyim wanfala samting wea happen bifor wea stap insaed olketa history buk. Then iu savve showim hem long Bible hao staka year bifor datfala samting hem happen, Bible storyim finis. Olketa narawan maet lisin long iu sapos iu storyim eni samting from Bible wea savve helpem olketa for garem gudfala laef, olsem advaes wea Jesus storyim long Sermon long Maunten.
16 Taem iumi story witim pipol, iumi no laek for argue witim olketa. Iumi laekem olketa for hapi for story witim iumi and for olketa lanem wanem Bible talem. So long kaenfala wei askem samfala kwestin long olketa, and then lisin gud long wanem olketa talem. Showimaot respect taem iu storyim wanem iu bilivim, especially long samwan wea age bilong hem winim iu. Sapos iu respectim olketa narawan, olketa tu bae respectim iu. And olketa bae tinghae long wei wea iu barava bilivim wanem Bible talem nomata iu young nomoa. Bat sapos samwan laek for argue and mekfani long wanem iu bilivim, no story witim hem.—Prov. 26:4.
DUIM SAMTING FOR STRONGIM FAITH BILONG IU

17 Maet iumi savve finis long olketa main teaching long Bible, bat iumi mas duim samfala samting moa for strongim faith bilong iumi. Iumi mas waka hard for studyim olketa deep samting long Bible, olsem wanfala man wea digdig for olketa spesol samting wea garem hae price.

2 Dispela em i as na yumi mas tingting strong tru long ol samting yumi bin harim, nogut isi isi yumi lusim bilip.2 Ol tok God i autim long rot bilong ol ensel, ol dispela tok i stap strong. Na olgeta man i kalapim na sakim ol dispela tok, ol i bin kisim strafe i stret long rong ol i mekim.3 Sapos olsem, orait olsem wanem yumi inap abrusim pe nogut sapos yumi no tingim gut tok i stori long samting God i bin mekim bilong kisim bek yumi? Bikpela bilong yumi i kirap autim tok long dispela samting na ol man i bin harim tok bilong em, ol i tokaut olsem tok bilong em i tru.4 Na God tu i tokaut long dispela samting long rot bilong ol mirakel na ol narakain samting, na ol kain kain strongpela wok, na em i tilim ol presen bilong holi spirit inap long laik bilong em.5 God i no bin makim ol ensel bilong bosim dispela graun bai kamap bihain, em dispela samting mipela i toktok long en.6 Bipo wanpela man i bin tokaut olsem: “Man em i wanem samting na yu save tingim em?

Waswe, Hem Old Tumas or Hem Fitim Distaem?
SCIENCE
BIBLE HEM NO SCIENCE BUK, BAT HEM TALEM STRET SAMTING WEA OLKETA SCIENTIST FAENDEMAOT BIHAEN. TINGIM SAMFALA EXAMPLE.
Waswe, evri samting wea stap long universe garem start?
Long firstaem olketa scientist sei evri samting hia no garem start. Bat gogo olketa luksavve universe hem garem start. Datwan nao samting wea Bible storyim longtaem kam finis.—Jenesis 1:1.
Wat nao sheip bilong earth?
Long bifor, staka pipol tingse earth hem flat. Long mek-faev century B.C.E., olketa Greek scientist sei earth hem raon. Bat thri handred year bifor datwan, long mek-eit century B.C.E., Isaiah wea raetem Bible sei ‘sheip bilong earth hem olsem ball.’—Isaiah 40:22, NW.
Waswe, olketa samting long skae savve kamap old and nogud tu?
Greek scientist, Aristotle, wea laef long mek-foa century B.C.E., sei olketa samting long skae olsem olketa star and planet no savve kamap old and nogud. Olketa man bilivim datfala idea for staka handred year. Bat long mek-19 century, olketa scientist kamap witim wanfala teaching wea olketa kolem entropy. Olketa sei evri samting long earth and skae savve kamap nogud. Wanfala scientist wea sapotim datfala teaching hem Lord Kelvin, hem talem tu toktok wea Bible talem abaotem heven and earth, wea sei olsem abaotem skae and evri samting wea stap long hem: “No longtaem bae olketa i nogud nomoa olsem olketa olfala kaleko.” (Sams 102:25, 26) Kelvin bilivim wanem Bible talem hao God savve disaed for no letem wanem hem creatim for kamap nogud.—Eklesiastes 1:4.
Wanem nao earth and olketa nara planet sidaon antap?
Aristotle sei earth and olketa nara planet, sun, moon and olketa star, each wan garem samting wea klia olsem glass stap raonem olketa. Earth nao stap long midol, and evri samting hia sapotim earth bikos olketa stap klos raonem each other.

Bat samting olsem 700 year go finis nomoa, taem wanfala nogud sik killim dae staka million pipol, then olketa doctor just luksavve gud samting wea kamaot from datfala Law bilong Moses. Kam kasem distaem, olketa doctor savve keepim sikman difren from pipol mekem sik no spred.—Levitikas, chapter 13 and 14.

Evri year winim 500 thousand pikinini dae bikos long diarrhea. Diswan hem bikos pipol no garem proper ples for toilet and datwan spoelem wata for drink. Law bilong Moses sei taem man toilet finis hem mas berem and ples wea pipol toilet long hem mas farawe from ples wea pipol stap.—Diutronomi 23:13.
Taem for circumcisem baby.
Law bilong God sei for olketa Israelite mas circumcisem baby boy bilong olketa long mek-eit day bihaen hem born. (Levitikas 12:3) Olketa doctor sei wan week bihaen baby born nao blood bilong hem strong and waka gud. Long bifor taem olketa doctor no savve yet staka samting abaotem health, wei wea olketa Israelite followim datfala law hem protectim olketa.
Feeling hem join witim health.
Olketa doctor and scientist faendaot olketa feeling olsem wei for hapi, garem hope, tinghae, and willing for forgive savve helpem man saed long health bilong hem. Bible sei: “Wei for hapi hem olsem gudfala medicine for heart bilong man, bat wei for sorre hem savve mekem man wikdaon.”—Proverbs 17:22, NW.

CHAPTER 22
Waswe, Iu Followim “Wisdom From Antap” Insaed Living Bilong Iu?
1-3. (a) Hao nao Solomon showimaot spesol wisdom taem hem stretem wanfala raoa midolwan tufala woman? (b) Wanem nao Jehovah promis for givim long iumi, and wanem kwestin nao kamap abaotem datwan?
HEM hardfala kot case—tufala woman raoa abaotem wanfala baby. Tufala stap long sem haos, and no longtaem go nomoa each wan bornem wanfala son. Wanfala baby dae, and tufala woman evriwan sei hem nao mami bilong baby wea laef. * No eniwan lukim samting wea happen. Wanfala smol kot herem finis disfala kot case bat olketa no savve stretem. Gogo, olketa tekem kam disfala raoa long Solomon, king bilong Israel. Waswe, bae hem fit for faendemaot tru samting?
2 Bihaen hem lisin lelebet long raoa bilong tufala woman hia, Solomon ask for wanfala sword. Then, hem givim order for olketa katem long haf datfala pikinini, and givim wan haf long each woman. Stretawe, really mami askem king for givim go datfala baby—pikinini wea hem lovem—long nara woman. Bat nara woman sei for olketa mas katem datfala baby. Solomon savve long truth nao. Hem savve long bigfala love wea wanfala mami garem for pikinini wea hem bornem, and hem iusim datfala savve for stretem raoa hia. Tingim hapi bilong mami hia taem Solomon givim hem datfala baby and sei: “Hem nao mami bilong baby.”—1 Kings 3:16-27.
3 Datwan hem barava spesol wisdom, hem tru? Taem pipol herem hao Solomon stretem datfala problem, olketa garem respect and fraet “from olketa lukim hao wisdom bilong God stap long hem.” Tru nao, wisdom bilong Solomon hem wanfala present from God. Jehovah givim hem “heart wea wise and garem fasin for minim samting.” (1 Kings 3:12, 28) Bat waswe long iumi? Iumi tu savve kasem wisdom from God? Yes, bikos spirit bilong God muvim Solomon for raet olsem: “Jehovah seleva givim wisdom.” (Proverbs 2:6) Jehovah promis for givim wisdom—wea hem nao wei for iusim gud savve, fasin for minim samting, and fasin for luksavve—long olketa wea really luk aotem datwan. Hao nao iumi savve kasem wisdom from antap? And hao nao iumi savve followim insaed living bilong iumi?
Hao Nao for “Kasem Wisdom”?
4-7. Wanem nao fofala samting man mas garem or duim for kasem wisdom?
4 Waswe, iumi needim bigfala savve or bigfala education for kasem wisdom from God? Nomoa. Jehovah willing for sharem wisdom bilong hem witim iumi nomata wanem living and education iumi garem. (1 Corinthians 1:26-29) Bat iumi mas duim samting firstaem, from Bible encouragem iumi for “kasem wisdom.” (Proverbs 4:7) Hao nao iumi savve duim olsem?
5 First samting, iumi need for fraet long God. Proverbs 9:10 hem sei: “Wei for fraet long Jehovah hem start bilong wisdom [“first step for kasem wisdom,” The New English Bible].” Wei for fraet long God hem faondeson bilong tru wisdom. Why nao olsem? Tingim hao wisdom hem minim wei for iusim savve long gudfala wei. For fraet long God, hem no minim man barava seksek front long hem, bat hem minim for kam front long hem witim bigfala respect and trust. Wei for fraet olsem hem gud and barava muvim man. Hem muvim iumi for mekem living bilong iumi fitim savve wea iumi garem abaotem will and olketa wei bilong God. Hem nomoa only wise wei for iumi followim, bikos olketa standard bilong Jehovah evritaem barava helpem olketa wea followim.
6 Mek-tu samting, iumi mas hambol and no ova tumas. Man no savve kasem wisdom from God sapos hem ova tumas and no hambol. (Proverbs 11:2) Why nao olsem? Sapos iumi hambol and no ova tumas, iumi willing for sei iumi no savve long evri samting, tingting bilong iumi no stret evritaem, and iumi need for savve long tingting bilong Jehovah long planti samting. Jehovah “againstim praod pipol,” bat hem hapi for givim wisdom long olketa wea garem hambol heart.—James 4:6.
For kasem wisdom bilong God, iumi mas waka hard for lukaotem
7 Mek-thri samting man need for duim hem for studyim Word bilong God. Wisdom bilong Jehovah hem showaot insaed long Word bilong hem. For kasem datfala wisdom, iumi mas waka hard for luk aotem. (Proverbs 2:1-5) Mek-foa samting hem prea. Sapos iumi really askem God for wisdom, bae hem willing for givim datwan. (James 1:5) Hem bae ansarem olketa prea wea iumi askem help bilong spirit bilong hem. And spirit bilong hem savve openem wei for iumi faendem—insaed Word bilong hem—olketa samting wea savve helpem iumi for stretem olketa problem, stap klia long danger, and disaed long wisefala wei.—Luke 11:13.
8. Sapos iumi barava kasem wisdom bilong God, hao nao bae hem showaot?
8 Olsem iumi lukim finis long Chapter 17, wisdom bilong Jehovah hem helpem man. So, sapos iumi barava kasem wisdom bilong God, datwan bae showaot long fasin bilong iumi. Disaepol James storyim olketa frut bilong wisdom bilong God taem hem raet olsem: “Wisdom from antap hem firstaem klin, then keepim peace, hem willing for mekwe, redy for obey, fulap witim mercy and gudfala frut, no teksaed witim eniwan, no hypocrite.” (James 3:17) Taem iumi storyim each part bilong wisdom bilong God hia, iumi savve askem iumiseleva, ‘Waswe, mi really followim wisdom from antap?’
“Klin, Then Keepim Peace”
9. Wanem nao hem minim for klin, and why nao fitim for klin fasin nao first part bilong wisdom?
9 “Hem firstaem klin.” For klin hem minim for no dirty long aotsaed and long insaed tu. Bible joinim wisdom witim heart, bat wisdom from heven no savve go insaed long wanfala heart wea hem dirty from wicked tingting, feeling, and reason wea muvim man. (Proverbs 2:10; Matthew 15:19, 20) Bat, sapos heart bilong iumi hem klin—fitim man wea no perfect—bae iumi “tanawe from samting wea nogud and duim samting wea gud.” (Psalm 37:27; Proverbs 3:7) Dastawe hem barava fitim for klin fasin nao first part bilong wisdom! Tru nao, sapos iumi no klin long fasin and spiritual saed, hao nao bae iumi showimaot olketa nara part bilong wisdom from antap?
10, 11. (a) Why nao hem important for iumi keepim peace? (b) Sapos iu luksavve iu mekem wanfala brata or sista feel nogud, hao nao iu savve showimaot iu man for mek peace? (Lukim tu footnote.)
10 “Then keepim peace.” Wisdom from heven muvim iumi for aftarem peace, wanfala frut bilong spirit bilong God. (Galatians 5:22) Iumi traem best for no spoelem ‘wan mind bilong peace’ wea pipol bilong Jehovah garem. (Ephesians 4:3) Iumi savve duim best bilong iumi tu for mekem peace kamap moa taem samting spoelem datwan. Why nao diswan important? Bible hem sei: “Go ahed . . . for stap long peace; and God bilong love and peace bae stap witim iufala.” (2 Corinthians 13:11) So sapos iumi go ahed for stap long peace, God bilong peace bae stap witim iumi. Wei wea iumi deal witim olketa nara brata hem affectim wei wea iumi fren witim Jehovah. Hao nao iumi savve kamap man for mek peace? Tingim wanfala example.
11 Wanem nao iu shud duim sapos iu luksavve iu mekem wanfala brata or sista hem feel nogud? Jesus hem sei: “Sapos iu tekem present bilong iu long altar, and taem iu long there iu remember hao brata bilong iu hem garem samting againstim iu, leavim present bilong iu front long altar, and go; mek peace witim brata bilong iu firstaem, then taem iu kam bak, offerim present bilong iu.” (Matthew 5:23, 24) Iu savve followim datfala kaonsel long wei for duim samting firstaem for go long brata bilong iu. Wanem nao goal bilong iu? For “mek peace” witim hem. * For kasem datwan, maet iu need for luksavve and no denyim wei wea hem feel nogud. Sapos iu go long hem witim goal for mek peace and keepim datfala tingting, luk olsem iufala fit for stretem eni rong tingting, talem toktok for sei sorre wea fitim, and willing for forgive. Taem iu duim samting firstaem for mek peace, iu showimaot wisdom bilong God nao leadim iu.
“Willing for Mekwe, Redy for Obey”
12, 13. (a) Wanem nao mining bilong word wea olketa transleitim olsem “willing for mekwe” long James 3:17? (b) Hao nao iumi savve showimaot iumi willing for mekwe?
12 “Willing for mekwe.” Wanem nao hem minim for willing for mekwe? Olketa savveman sei hem hard for transleitim datfala Greek word wea olketa transleitim “willing for mekwe” long James 3:17. Olketa transleita iusim olketa word olsem “kaenfala,” “patient,” and “tingim feeling.” Hao nao iumi savve showimaot iumi followim disfala part bilong wisdom from antap?
13 Philippians 4:5 hem sei: “Showim front long evri man wei wea iu willing for mekwe.” Narafala transleison sei: “Pipol mas savve long iu olsem man wea willing for mekwe.” (The New Testament in Modern English, by J. B. Phillips) Lukim hao diswan hem no minim wei wea iumi ting abaotem iumiseleva; diswan hem minim wei wea nara pipol ting long iumi, and wanem kaen nem iumi garem. Man wea mekwe hem no forcem man for followim evribit olketa rul or mas followim tingting bilong hemseleva. Bat, hem willing for lisin long nara pipol and, long taem wea fitim, hem mekwe for samting olketa laekem. Hem kaenfala, no raf taem hem deal witim nara pipol. Diswan hem important for evri Christian duim, and moa important for olketa wea serve olsem elder. Kaenfala fasin hem mekem pipol laekem man, olketa no fraet for go story witim man olsem. (1 Thessalonians 2:7, 8) Hem gud for iumi askem iumiseleva, ‘Waswe, pipol ting long mi olsem samwan wea tingim feeling, willing for mekwe, and garem kwaet fasin?’
14. Hao nao iumi savve showimaot iumi “redy for obey”?
14 “Redy for obey.” Greek word wea olketa transleitim “redy for obey” hem no stap long eni nara ples insaed long Christian Greek Scripture. Wanfala savveman sei disfala word “olketa planti taem iusim for discipline insaed long army.” Hem savve mekem man tingim wei for “willing for followim” and “stap anda.” Man wea letem wisdom from antap leadim hem bae barava willing for followim wanem olketa Scripture talem. Hem no olsem man wea disaedem samting and then letem eni nara samting wea no fitim datfala disison for affectim datwan. Bat, hem savve kwiktaem for change taem kliafala pruv from Bible showimaot hem disaedem samting long rong wei or garem olketa rong idea. Waswe, pipol ting long iu olsem kaen man olsem?
“Fulap Witim Mercy and Gudfala Frut”
15. Wanem nao mercy, and why nao hem fitim for James 3:17 storyim “mercy and “gudfala frut” tugeta?
15 “Fulap witim mercy and gudfala frut.” * Mercy hem wanfala important part long wisdom from antap, bikos wisdom olsem hem “fulap witim mercy.” Lukim hao “mercy” and “gudfala frut” olketa stap tugeta. Diswan hem fitim bikos insaed long Bible, planti taem mercy hem minim feeling wea muvim man for duim planti kaenfala samting, from hem tingim and kea long pipol. Wanfala buk talemaot mining bilong mercy olsem “feeling for sorre long nogud samting wea kasem samwan and for trae for givim help long datwan.” So, wisdom from God hem no samting wea no garem feeling, or no fitim really living bilong pipol. Bat, hem samting wea kam from heart and wea kwiktaem for lukim need wea kamap. Hao nao iumi savve showimaot iumi fulap witim mercy?
16, 17. (a) For join witim wei for lovem God, wanem nao muvim iumi for share insaed long preaching waka, and why nao olsem? (b) Wanem nao olketa wei wea iumi savve showimaot iumi fulap witim mercy?
16 Waswe, iumi agree wanfala important wei hem for sharem gud nius bilong Kingdom bilong God witim nara pipol? Wanem nao muvim iumi for duim disfala waka? Main samting hem love for God. Bat mercy and wei for kea long nara pipol tu muvim iumi. (Matthew 22:37-39) Planti pipol distaem “olketa garekil and stap olabaot olsem olketa sheep wea no garem eni shepherd.” (Matthew 9:36) Olketa shepherd bilong giaman religion blindim and no lukaftarem olketa long spiritual wei. From diswan, olketa no savve long wise kaonsel wea stap insaed Word bilong God or olketa blessing wea Kingdom bae klosap mekem kamap long earth. So, taem iumi tingim olketa spiritual need bilong pipol raonem iumi, fasin for kea wea kam from heart bae muvim iumi for duim best bilong iumi for talem olketa abaotem loving purpose bilong Jehovah.
17 Wanem nao olketa nara wei wea iumi showimaot iumi fulap witim mercy? Tingim tokpiksa bilong Jesus abaotem datfala Samaritan wea faendem wanfala man haf dead long saed road from pipol stealim and killim hem. From fasin for kea muvim hem, datfala Samaritan “showimaot mercy” long hem taem hem klinim garekil bilong datfala man and lukaftarem hem. (Luke 10:29-37) Waswe, diswan no showimaot hao mercy hem minim wei for givim gudfala help long olketa wea needim? Bible talem iumi for “duim gud samting long evriwan, bat main wan nao long olketa wea garem sem faith olsem iumi.” (Galatians 6:10) Tingim samfala wei for duim olsem. Wanfala olo brata or sista maet needim transport for go and kam long olketa Christian meeting. Wanfala widow insaed kongregeson maet needim help for fixim samfala samting long haos bilong hem. (James 1:27) Man wea feel wikdaon maet needim “gudfala toktok” for mekem hem feel hapi. (Proverbs 12:25) Taem iumi showimaot mercy long olketa wei olsem, iumi showimaot iumi followim wisdom from antap.
“No Teksaed, No Hypocrite”
18. Sapos wisdom from antap nao leadim iumi, wanem nao iumi mas traem best for aotem from heart bilong iumi, and why nao olsem?
18 “No teksaed.” Wisdom from God hem no daonem man wea garem difren kala skin or from narafala nation. Sapos wisdom olsem hem leadim iumi, iumi traem best for aotem from heart eni feeling for showimaot diskaen wei for favorim samwan. (James 2:9) Iumi no favorim eniwan from olketa garem education, selen, or responsibility insaed kongregeson; and tu iumi no lukdaonem eniwan wea worship witim iumi, nomata maet luk olsem olketa low tumas. Sapos Jehovah showimaot love bilong hem long olketa, then olketa barava fit for kasem love bilong iumi.
19, 20. (a) Wanem nao history bilong datfala Greek word for “hypocrite”? (b) Hao nao iumi savve showimaot “love wea no hypocrite for olketa brata,” and why nao diswan hem important?
19 “No hypocrite.” Greek word for “hypocrite” savve minim wanfala “man for act wea pleim wanfala part long wanfala plei.” Long bifor, olketa man for act from Greece and Rome werem mask wea kavarem full feis taem olketa act. So, datfala Greek word for “hypocrite” hem minim samwan wea act nomoa, or haedem tru fasin bilong hem. Disfala part bilong wisdom bilong God shud no only affectim hao iumi deal witim olketa nara worshiper bat tu hao iumi feel abaotem olketa.
20 Aposol Peter sei wei wea iumi “obeyim truth” hem shud kamaot from “love wea no hypocrite for olketa brata.” (1 Peter 1:22) Tru nao, love wea iumi garem for olketa brata bilong iumi hem no just samting for pipol lukim. Iumi no want for werem mask or act difren for giamanim pipol. Love bilong iumi mas tru wan wea kam from heart. Sapos olsem, then olketa brata bae trustim iumi, bikos wanem olketa lukim saed long iumi hem really iumi and no wanfala mask. Kaen wei for no hypocrite olsem hem openem wei for fren gud midolwan olketa Christian and help for mekem feeling for trust kamap insaed kongregeson.
“Protectim Wisdom wea Helpem Man”
21, 22. (a) Hao nao Solomon fail for protectim wisdom wea helpem man? (b) Hao nao iumi savve protectim wisdom, and hao nao iumi savve kasem gud samting sapos iumi duim datwan?
21 Wisdom bilong God hem wanfala present from Jehovah, wea iumi shud protectim. Solomon sei: “Son bilong mi, . . . protectim wisdom wea helpem man and wei for tingting gud.” (Proverbs 3:21) Sorre tumas, Solomon seleva fail for duim datwan. Hem go ahed wise long taem hem garem heart wea obey nomoa. Bat gogo, planti waef bilong hem from nara ples mekem heart bilong hem tanawe from klin worship bilong Jehovah. (1 Kings 11:1-8) Last part long laef bilong Solomon showimaot hao savve hem iusles sapos iumi no iusim datwan long stretfala wei.
22 Hao nao iumi savve protectim wisdom wea helpem man? Hem no just important for readim Bible evritaem and olketa Bible pablikeson wea “faithful and wise slave” preparem, bat tu, iumi mas traem best for followim samting wea iumi lanem. (Matthew 24:45) Iumi garem evri reason for followim wisdom bilong God. Iumi garem living wea moabeta distaem. Hem mekem iumi fit for “hol strong long datfala really laef”—laef insaed niu world bilong God. (1 Timothy 6:19) And samting wea moa important, from iumi mekem grow disfala wisdom from antap iumi kam moa klos long start bilong evri wisdom, Jehovah God.
^ par. 1 Wan Kings 3:16 sei tufala hia jury woman. Insight on the Scriptures sei: “Tufala hia maet jury woman, no long wei for tek selen, bat tufala bin duim fornication and maet tufala hia Jew woman or tufala woman from nara ples.”—Olketa Jehovah’s Witness nao pablisim.
^ par. 11 Greek toktok wea olketa transleitim “mek peace” hem kam from wanfala word wea minim “‘for changem samting, for exchangem samting,’ wea lead go for ‘fren bak moa.’” So goal bilong iu hem for changem samting, and sapos fitim for aotem nogud feeling from heart bilong samwan.—Romans 12:18.

Mark 7:1-37
7 So olketa Pharisee and samfala man wea teachim law wea stap kam long Jerusalem, olketa kam long hem.2 Olketa lukim samfala disaepol bilong hem no wasim hand taem olketa kaikai* and olketa komplenim olketa.3 Diswan hem bikos evri Jew and olketa Pharisee tu mas followim kastom bilong olketa man long bifor kam for wasim gud hand* bilong olketa bifor olketa kaikai.4 And taem olketa kam bak from market olketa mas tuwetem body witim lelebet wata bifor olketa savve kaikai. Olketa followim tu plande nara kastom wea olketa garem, olsem for putim insaed long wata olketa kap, olketa samting for keepim wata insaed, and olketa dish wea olketa wakem long copper.5 So olketa Pharisee and teacher hia askem hem olsem: “Hao nao olketa disaepol bilong iu no followim kastom bilong olketa man long bifor kam? Olketa no wasim hand bifor olketa kaikai!”6 Hem sei olsem long olketa: “Samting wea Isaiah talem long profesi abaotem iufala hem barava fitim. Hem sei: ‘Long toktok nomoa pipol hia mekhae long mi bat olketa no lovem mi.*7 Olketa hard waka nating for worshipim mi bikos olketa sei olketa law bilong man hem teaching wea kam from God.’8 Iufala lusim law bilong God, and strong for followim kastom bilong olketa man.”9 Then hem sei moa long olketa: “Iufala savve tumas hao for go raonem law bilong God mekem iufala savve gohed followim nomoa kastom bilong iufala.10 Tingim wanfala example long diswan. Moses hem sei, ‘Respectim dadi and mami bilong iufala,’ and, ‘Man wea tok spoelem dadi or mami bilong hem mas dae.’11 Bat iufala sei, ‘Man savve sei long dadi or mami bilong hem: “Eni samting wea mi garem wea savve helpem iu, datwan hem corban (wea minim samting man givim long God).”’12 Wei for iufala talem olsem hem stopem hem for no duim eni samting for helpem dadi or mami bilong hem.13 So kastom bilong iufala wea evri genereson followim hem mekem toktok bilong God hem iusles nomoa. And iufala duim plande nara samting olsem tu.”14 So hem talem olketa for kam long hem moa, and hem sei long olketa: “Iufala evriwan lisin long mi, and minim samting wea mi talem long iufala.15 No eni samting wea man kaikaim savve mekem hem for no klin. Bat olketa samting wea kam from insaed long man nao mekem hem for no klin.”16* ——17 Bihaen hem lusim olketa pipol hia and go insaed wanfala haos, olketa disaepol bilong hem askem hem abaotem datfala tokpiksa.18 So hem sei long olketa: “Hao, iufala tu no minim samting, olsem olketa hia? Hao, iufala no savve no eni samting wea go insaed long man savve mekem hem for no klin?19 Diswan hem bikos samting hia hem no go insaed heart, bat hem go insaed bele bilong hem, and gogo hem go aot from body bilong hem.” So samting hem talem showimaot evri kaikai hem klin nomoa.20 Hem sei moa: “Samting wea kam from insaed long man nao mekem hem for no klin.21 Bikos olketa nogud tingting wea spoelem man nao kam from heart bilong hem, wea mekem hem durong,* steal, killim man dae,22 duim adultery, greedy, duim olketa barava nogud samting, trikim man, nating shame for duim rong samting,* jealous, talem olketa nogud toktok, praod tumas, and krangge.23 Evri nogud samting hia hem kam from insaed long man and mekem man for no klin.”24 Hem lusim datfala ples and go long olketa ples wea klosap long Tyre and Siʹdon. Hem go insaed long wanfala haos and nomata hem no laekem eniwan for savve hem stap long there, bat pipol savve nomoa.25 Wanfala woman wea demon stap long smol gele bilong hem, hem herem nius abaotem Jesus. Semtaem nomoa hem kam and baodaon long hem.26 Hem woman bilong Phoe·niʹcia long Syria bat wea laen bilong hem kam from Greece. Hem gohed askem hem for raosem datfala demon from gele bilong hem.27 Bat Jesus sei long hem: “Firstaem, olketa pikinini nao mas kaikai, bikos hem no stret for tekem bred bilong olketa pikinini and torowem go long olketa smol dog.”28 Bat datfala woman hem sei: “Datwan hem tru Lord, nomata olsem, olketa smol dog andanit long tebol savve kaikaim olketa pis bred wea foldaon taem olketa smol pikinini kaikai.”29 Jesus sei long hem: “From iu talem datwan, go bak long haos.

Then hem raon kam long De·capʹo·lis,* gogo hem kasem Sea long Galʹi·lee.32 Long there, pipol tekem kam long hem wanfala man wea earpas and wea no savve toktok gud.

Hem Mekem Olketa wea Taed for Strong
Yeartext bilong iumi for 2018: “Olketa hu i trastem [Jehovah], bae i kamap strong moa.”—AESAEA 40:31.
SONG: 152, 67
1. Wanem nao samfala problem wea iumi mas deal witim, bat why nao Jehovah hapi long olketa wea faithful long hem? (Lukim piksa long start bilong study.)
LAEF long disfala world hem no isi. Staka long iufala olketa brata and sista safa from bigfala sik. Samfala wea olo finis mas lukaftarem olketa nara olo relative. And olketa narawan stragol for provaedem need bilong famili. Mifala savve staka long iufala no deal witim wanfala problem nomoa, bat mas deal witim evri problem hia long semtaem. Diswan savve tekem staka taem, strong, and selen for deal witim datwan. Nomata olsem, iu barava trustim Jehovah bae helpem iu. Iu savve, klosap nao evri samting bae kamap gud bikos hem nao wanem Jehovah promisim. Jehovah barava hapi for lukim iu gohed faithful!
2. Hao nao Aesaea 40:29 encouragem iumi, bat wanem kaen tingting nao iumi shud no garem?
2 Waswe, samfala taem iu feel hem hard tumas for deal witim olketa problem wea iu garem? Sapos iu feel olsem, no wari, hem no iuseleva nomoa. Samfala wea faithful long God bifor tu feel olsem olketa no wei nao. (Fas Kings 19:4; Job 7:7) Wanem nao helpem olketa for no givap? Olketa depend long Jehovah for strongim olketa. Bible sei God “mekem olketa hu i taet fo strong.” (Aesaea 40:29) Sorre samting nao, samfala distaem feel olsem best wei for deal witim olketa problem hem for stop worshipim Jehovah for lelebet taem. Olketa feel olsem wei for worshipim Jehovah hem no wanfala blessing bat hem wanfala hevi. So olketa stop for readim Bible, no go long olketa meeting, and preaching. Datwan nao samting wea Satan laekem olketa for duim.
3. (a) Wanem nao iumi savve duim for no letem Satan mekem iumi wikdaon? (b) Wanem nao bae iumi storyim long disfala study?
3 Satan savve wei wea iumi busy for duim olketa spiritual samting savve strongim iumi, and hem no laekem iumi for strong long spiritual wei. So taem body and tingting bilong iu taed tumas, no lusim Jehovah. Gohed for klos long hem. Bible sei hem bae ‘mekem iu barava strong.’ (1 Pet. 5:10; Jas. 4:8) Long disfala study, iumi bae lane from Aesaea 40:26-31 abaotem wei wea Jehovah savve strongim iumi. Bae iumi storyim tu, tufala samting wea maet happen wea savve mekem iumi no strong for duim waka bilong Jehovah, and iumi bae lanem hao for followim olketa Bible principle for helpem iumi for no givap.
OLKETA WEA TRUSTIM JEHOVAH BAE KAMAP STRONG MOA
4. Wanem nao iumi lanem from Aesaea 40:26?
4 Readim Aesaea 40:26. No eniwan savve haomas star nao stap long full universe. Olketa scientist sei insaed Milky Way galaxy nomoa, hem garem 400 billion star. Nomata olsem, Jehovah givim nem long evri star. Wanem nao iumi lanem from datwan? Jehovah interest long olketa star, nomata olketa no savve worshipim hem. Sapos olsem, datwan minim Jehovah mas barava interest long iu, bikos iu lovem and worshipim hem. (Sams 19:1, 3, 14) Dadi bilong iumi long heven savve long evri samting abaotem iu. Bible sei: “Hem kaontem finis tu evri hair long hed bilong [iu].” (Matt. 10:30) Jehovah laekem iumi for savve hem “gohed fo lukaftarem olketa wea i gohed fo obeim hem.” (Sams 37:18) Tru nao, Jehovah savve long evri problem wea iu garem and hem bae strongim iu for deal witim olketa problem hia.
5. Why nao iumi sure Jehovah savve givim iumi strong wea iumi needim?
5 Readim Aesaea 40:28. Jehovah nao givim paoa long evri samting. Olsem example, tingim paoa wea hem givim long sun. Wanfala man for raet abaotem science, David Bodanis, hem sei insaed wanfala second sun hem givimaot paoa wea semsem olsem paoa wea kamap taem staka billion atomic bomb bosta. Wanfala man wea duim research, hem faendaot hao paoa wea sun givimaot insaed wan second nomoa savve givim paoa for pipol long full world for 200,000 year! Tru nao, Jehovah, man wea givim paoa long sun, savve givim iumi strong wea iumi needim for deal witim olketa problem bilong iumi.
6. Why nao hem no hard for duim wanem Jesus laekem, and hao nao datwan affectim wanem iumi duim?
6 Readim Aesaea 40:29. Wei for worshipim Jehovah mekem iumi barava hapi. Jesus talem olketa disaepol: “Iufala waka witim mi.” And hem sei, “Wei for duim olsem bae strongim iufala. Bae hem no hard for iufala waka witim mi, and iufala savve karem samting wea mi askem iufala for karem.” (Matt. 11:28-30) Datwan barava tru! Samfala taem iumi feel taed taem iumi lusim haos for go long meeting or preaching. Bat bihaen iumi kam bak long haos, iumi feel strong and redi for deal witim eni problem. Tru nao, hem no hard for duim wanem Jesus laekem.
7. Storyim eni experience wea showimaot wanem Matthew 11:28-30 talem hem tru.
7 Tingim experience bilong wanfala sista wea garem sik wea mekem hem wik tumas, sorre, and garem olketa headache wea pain tumas. So samfala taem hem hard for hem attendim meeting. Nomata olsem, wanday bihaen hem go long meeting, hem sei: “Tok wea kamap hem abaotem wei for wikdaon. Brata wea givim tok, story long wei wea showimaot hem tingim and minim man wea kasem problem olsem. Taem mi herem datwan mi krae. Datwan helpem mi for tingim hao meeting nao ples wea mi need for go long hem.” Hem barava hapi bikos hem traem best for attendim datfala meeting!
8, 9. Wanem nao aposol Paul minim taem hem sei, “Taem mi wik, hem nao taem wea mi strong”?
8 Readim Aesaea 40:30. Nomata sapos iumi savve hao for duim staka samting, bat sapos iumi depend long strong bilong iumiseleva nomoa bae hem hard for iumi duim evri samting wea iumi laek for duim. Iumi evriwan need for luksavve long diswan. Aposol Paul no fit for duim evri samting wea hem laek for duim. Taem hem talem feeling bilong hem long Jehovah, Jehovah sei: “Paoa bilong mi barava strong taem iu wik.” Paul minim wanem Jehovah talem. Dastawe hem sei: “Taem mi wik, hem nao taem wea mi strong.” (2 Cor. 12:7-10) Wanem nao hem minim?
9 Paul luksavve hem no fit for depend long strong bilong hemseleva. Hem needim help bilong God wea garem bigfala paoa. Holy spirit bilong God nao fit for strongim hem. And datfala holy spirit savve mekem Paul garem paoa for duim samting wea hemseleva no fit for duim. God savve duim datwan for iumi tu. Taem Jehovah givim iumi holy spirit, datwan mekem iumi kamap barava strong!
10. Hao nao Jehovah helpem David for deal witim olketa problem bilong hem?
10 David, man wea raetem psalm, hem experiencem wei wea holy spirit bilong God strongim hem. Hem sing olsem, “Yu gohed fo givim paoa long mi, fo faetem olketa enemi blong mi. Ya, yu gohed fo mekem mi strong fo barava winim taon blong olketa enemi blong mi.” (Sams 18:29) Iumi tu kasem samfala problem wea olsem enemy wea iumi no savve winim witim strong bilong iumiseleva. Dastawe iumi needim Jehovah for helpem iumi.
11. Hao nao holy spirit savve helpem iumi for deal witim samting wea no isi?
11 Readim Aesaea 40:31. Eagle no depend long strong bilong hemseleva for flae go ap hae and for flae farawe. Warm air wea go ap long skae savve liftim eagle for hem flae go ap hae, wea mekem eagle hia no taed. So taem iu mas deal witim wanfala samting wea hem no isi, tingim datfala eagle. Barava askem Jehovah for givim ‘holy spirit for helpem iu’ for strong. (John 14:26) Gud samting nao, iumi savve askem Jehovah for givim iumi holy spirit enitaem nomoa. Maet iumi need for askem Jehovah for helpem iumi, especially taem iumi feel nogud long wanfala brata or sista long kongregeson. Bat wanem nao savve mekem iumi feel nogud olsem?
12, 13. (a) Why nao samfala taem iumi feel nogud long each other? (b) Wanem nao iumi lanem abaotem Jehovah from story bilong Joseph?
12 Wei for feel nogud long each other savve happen bikos iumi evriwan no perfect. Samfala taem maet iumi kros long samting wea narawan talem and duim or maet olketa nao kros long samting wea iumi duim. Diswan no isi for deal witim. Bat datwan givim iumi chance for showimaot iumi faithful long Jehovah taem iumi lane for wan mind for waka tugeta witim olketa brata and sista. Jehovah lovem olketa nomata olketa no perfect, and iumi shud olsem tu.
13 Jehovah letem pipol bilong hem for kasem test. Iumi lanem datwan from story bilong Joseph. Taem Joseph young, olketa haf brata bilong hem jealous and salem hem and hem kamap slave long Egypt. (Jenesis 37:28) Jehovah lukim evri samting wea happen, and for sure, hem sorre for lukim hao olketa treatim nogud faithful fren bilong hem, Joseph. Bat Jehovah no stopem datwan. And nomata taem olketa accusim Joseph and sei hem trae for reipim waef bilong Potiphar and hem go long prison, still Jehovah no duim eni samting. Bat waswe, God lusim Joseph? Nomoa. Bible sei: “[Jehovah] hemi stap wetem Josef, an hemi gohed fo duim olketa waka ya barava gud tumas.”—Jenesis 39:21-23.
14. Wanem gud samting nao iumi kasem taem iumi no keepim kros?
14 Nara example hem David, wea staka nogud samting kasem hem. From hem fren bilong God, hem no laek for keepim kros. Hem raet olsem: “Yu no kros, an yu no wari, tufala samting ya i wei fo mekem trabol . . . nomoa.” (Sams 37:8) Important reason why iumi no laek keepim kros hem bikos iumi laek followim example bilong Jehovah, from “hemi no save panisim yumi fitim olketa sin blong yumi,” and hem forgivim iumi. (Sams 103:10) Iumi savve kasem olketa nara gud samting tu sapos iumi no gohed keepim kros. Olsem example, kros savve kosim sik olsem hae blood, shortwind, savve spoelem liver, pancreas, and mekem olketa problem long bele. And taem iumi kros, iumi no savve tingting stret. Samfala taem from iumi kros tumas iumi talem or duim samting wea mekem narawan feel nogud, then bihaen, iumi feel sorre for longtaem. Hem gud for followim advaes long Bible, wea sei: “Garem kuaet tingting, bae yu helti.” (Provebs 14:30) So wanem nao bae iumi duim taem narawan mekem iumi feel nogud, and hao nao iumi savve mek peace? Followim wise advaes insaed Bible.
TAEM IUMI FEEL NOGUD LONG NARAWAN
15, 16. Wanem nao iumi shud duim taem samwan mekem iumi feel nogud?
15 Readim Ephesus 4:26. Iumi no sapraes taem pipol wea no worshipim Jehovah treatim iumi nogud. Bat taem wanfala Christian brata or sista or famili member talem or duim eniting wea mekem iumi feel nogud, datwan savve barava affectim iumi. Hao sapos iumi no fit for forgetim samting wea happen? Waswe, bae iumi keepim feeling for kros for staka year? Or waswe, bae iumi followim advaes long Bible for stretem datwan kwiktaem? Sapos iumi leavim problem for longtaem, bae hem barava hard for mek peace.
16 Hao sapos iu feel nogud long wanfala brata, and iu gohed tingting abaotem datwan? Wanem nao bae iu duim for mek peace? First samting, iu savve prea long Jehovah. Askem hem for helpem iu for story gud witim brata bilong iu. Tingim, brata bilong iu hem fren bilong Jehovah tu. (Sams 25:14) God lovem hem. Jehovah kaen long evri fren bilong hem, and hem expectim iumi for duim sem samting tu. (Provebs 15:23; Matt. 7:12; Col. 4:6) Mek-tu samting, tingting firstaem abaotem wanem bae iu talem long hem. No tingse hem laek spoelem iu. Maet hem mistek nomoa or iu no minim gud wanem hem duim. Willing for luksavve maet iuseleva duim samting wea kosim datfala problem. Maet iu savve startim story olsem, “Taem iumi story yesterday, maet mi kwiktaem feel nogud, bat mi tingse . . . ” Sapos iutufala story bat no mek peace yet, gohed traem best. Prea for brata bilong iu. Askem Jehovah for blessim hem and helpem iu for tingim gudfala wei bilong hem. Iu savve sure Jehovah hapi taem iu traem best for mek peace witim brata bilong iu wea hem fren bilong God.
TAEM IUMI GOHED TINGIM NOGUD SAMTING IUMI DUIM BIFOR
17. Taem iumi sin, hao nao Jehovah helpem iumi for fren bak witim hem, and why nao iumi shud acceptim datfala help?
17 Samfala feel olketa no fit for worshipim Jehovah bikos olketa duim serious sin. Wei for feel guilty savve mekem iumi feel wik, no garem peace, and no hapi. King David stragol witim feeling for guilty and hem sei: “Taem mi no talemaot olketa sin blong mi long yu, mi barava wik fogud, bikos mi gohed fo krae nomoa evri de, . . . Long de an long naet, yu gohed fo panisim mi.” Gud samting nao, David no fraet for duim wanem Jehovah laekem hem for duim. “[Hem] tok olsem, ‘Bae mi talemaot sin blong mi long [Jehovah].’” Then hem sei, “Yu fogivim mi an tekemaot olketa sin blong mi.” (Sams 32:3-5) Sapos iu duim serious sin, Jehovah redi for helpem iu for fren bak witim hem. Bat iu mas acceptim help bilong Jehovah thru long olketa elder. (Provebs 24:16; Jas. 5:13-15) Iu mas duim diswan kwiktaem! Sapos nomoa, bae iu no kasem laef olowe. Bat sapos iu gohed feel guilty nomata iu kasem forgiveness, wanem nao iu shud duim?
18. Hao nao example bilong Paul savve helpem olketa wea tingse olketa no fit for worshipim Jehovah?
18 Samfala taem aposol Paul feel wikdaon from hem tingim sin wea hem duim bifor. Hem sei: “Olketa nara aposol winim mi, and hem no fitim for olketa kolem mi wanfala aposol, bikos mi spoelem olketa long kongregeson bilong God.” Nomata olsem, Paul sei: “Bat from God hem kaen long mi nao mi duim disfala waka.” (1 Cor. 15:9, 10) Jehovah acceptim Paul nomata hem no perfect, and hem laekem Paul for luksavve long datwan. Jehovah savve forgivim iu sapos iu barava repent, and sapos sin wea iu duim hem serious, iu need for story long olketa elder. Trustim hao Jehovah forgivim iu, and acceptim datwan!—Aesaea 55:6, 7.
19. Wanem nao yeartext for 2018, and why nao hem fitim?
19 From iumi klosap tumas long end bilong world, iumi expectim bae iumi kasem staka problem. Bat iumi shud tingim hao Jehovah, man wea hem “mekem olketa hu i taet fo strong moa. An hemi givim paoa long olketa hu i wik,” bae givim iu wanem iu needim for gohed faithful for worshipim hem. (Aesaea 40:29; Sams 55:22; 68:19) Long 2018, evritaem iumi go long Kingdom Hall bae iumi tingim disfala tru toktok wea stap long yeartext bilong iumi. Hem nao: “Olketa hu i trastem [Jehovah], bae i kamap strong moa.”—Aesaea 40:31.

Ol i kisim tingting olsem ol i no inap kamap gut long wanpela hap; ol i ting olgeta bai lus.
Orait nau Pol i sanap namel long ol na i tok: ‘I no gat wanpela bilong yupela bai i lus; sip tasol bai lus. Long nait wanpela ensel bilong God i kam na tokim mi olsem, “Pol, yu no ken pret! Yu mas i go sanap long pes bilong Sisar long Rom. Na God bai helpim olgeta man i stap wantaim yu.”’

Olsem na olgeta 276 man i stap long sip ol i kamap gut long nambis, olsem ensel i bin tok promis.
Dispela ailan ol i kamap long en, em Malta. Ol asples i mekim gutpela pasin tru, na ol i lukautim ol man i kam long bot. Bihain Pol i kalap long narapela sip na ol i kisim em i go long Rom.
