MASIMPE NCAATONDEZYA
Mukwiimpana atwaano twakaindi twakuyeeyela buyo, Makani Mabotu akalembwa munzila iiluzi alimwi iisyomeka. Mucikozyanyo, alijisi mazina aamasena manji aaliko ncobeni, bunji bwangawo alakonzya kuswaigwa mazuba aano. Alatwaambila kujatikizya bantu ibakapona ncobeni alimwi ibakasinizyigwa abasikulemba makani aakaindi.—Luka 3:1, 2, 23.

Kuyungizya waawo, zintu izyakacitika zyakalembwa munzila iitondezya kuti zyamasimpe alimwi zilasyomeka, mane buya akuyubununa bulubizi bwabasikwiiya ba Jesu bamwi. (Matayo 26:56; Luka 22:24-26; Johane 18:10, 11) Twaambo ootu toonse tutondezya kuti balembi ba Makani Mabotu bakali kusyomeka alimwi bakaliluzi kumakani ngobakalemba kujatikizya Jesu.

(Luka 24:11) Nokuba boobo, kudooneka koonse kwakamana ciindi balo alimwi abasikwiiya bambi nobakamubona ziindi ziindene-indene Jesu iwakabusyigwa. Mubwini, aciindi cimwi, bantu bainda ku 500 bakamubona ntongolameso.—1 Bakorinto 15:6.
Kwiinda mukulibikka muntenda yakwaangwa akujaigwa, basikwiiya bakakambauka cabusicamba kujatikizya bubuke bwa Jesu kubantu boonse—nokuba kuli baabo ibakamujaya. (Milimo 4:1-3, 10, 19, 20; 5:27-32) Sena basikwiiya banji boobu nobakaba basicamba ikuti nobatakali masimpe kuti Jesu wakabusyigwa ncobeni? Mubwini, bubuke bwa Jesu mbombubo bwakali kukulwaizya Bunakristo kaindi alimwi amazuba aano.
