Likhona na ithemba lokuthi inturhu enjengale izakhe iphele? Lithini iBhayibheli?
Ukuphela Kwenturhu
IBhayibheli lihlathulula isikhathi esiphila kiswesi ngokuthi ‘mimihla yokuphela,’ sikhathi lapho abantu bazokuba nelaka, isihluku nelunya. (2 Thimothi 3:1, 3) Inturhu enjengale yenza abantu baphile ngokusaba. (Lukasi 21:11) Nanyana kunjalo, iBhayibheli ithembisa isikhathi lapho inturhu ingekhe isaba khona begodu “abantu . . . . bazokuhlala endaweni enokuthula, eendaweni eziphephileko neendaweni zokuphumula ezinokuthula.” (Isaya 32:18) Izokuqedwa njani inturhu?
UZimu uzokuqinisekisa ukuthi abantu abambi bangasabi khona begodu atjhabalalise zoke iinkhali.
“Abakhohlakeleko bazokutjhatjalaliswa ephasini.”—IzAga 2:22.
“[UZimu] uqeda izipi ephasini loke. Uphula umsebe, aphohloze nomkhonto; Utjhisa iinkarana zamasotja ngomlilo.”—IRhubo 46:9.
UZimu uzokufundisa abantu bona babe nokuthula begodu ngendlela le uzokuqeda inturhu.
“Angekhe zilimaze namkha zibange umonakalo kiyo yoke intabami ecwengileko ngokuqinisekileko iphasi lizabe lizele ilwazi lakaJehova njengamanzi agubuzese ilwandle.”—Isaya 11:9.
Nanje, uZimu ufundisa abantu ephasini loke ukulisa inturhu nokusebenzisa iinkhali, bona ‘benze iinsabula zabo zibe maplurhu nemikhontwabo ibe mimikhwa yokuthena imithi.’—Mikha 4:3.
