Ngakho-ke, ukuba lo msebenzi usekhona eBhayibhelini, beningeke nehlele ngezansi. Kuncane iBhayibheli elisitshela khona ngama-Israyeli, lowo ongakwazi ukuhlukanisa phakathi kowenza okubi noma okuhle noma ukunahlulela. Ake nicabange ukube bekufanele nginahlulele ngokomlando wama-Israyeli—beniyoqhubeka ningilandele njengoba nenza namuhla? Ingabe niyazi ukuthi nilukhuni kangakanani?

Ngenxa yokuthi angizelanga ukuzobethelwa esiphambanweni, kumele ngikhulume amazwi angahlangene neBhayibheli ukuze ninqotshwe.

Ngalokho, eminyakeni eminingi emva kokuhamba Kwakhe, uMathewu wakha uhlu lozalo Lwakhe, nabanye futhi benza umsebenzi omningi owentando yomuntu. UJesu akazelanga ukuzophelelisa nokuzuza umuntu kodwa ukuzokwenza isigaba esisodwa somsebenzi: wokuzoletha ivangeli lombuso wasezulwini nokuqedela umsebenzi wokubethelwa—futhi lapho uJesu esebethelwe, umsebenzi Wakhe wafika ekugcineni. Kodwa kulesi sigaba—umsebenzi wokunqoba—maningi amazwi okumele akhulunywe, mningi umsebenzi okumele wenziwe futhi kumele kube nezinqubo eziningi. Kulindeleke okufanayo ngezimfihlakalo zomsebenzi kaJesu noJehova okumele zembulwe, ukuze bonke abantu babe nokuqonda nokucacelwa ekukholweni kwabo, ngoba lona umsebenzi wezinsuku zokugcina futhi izinsuku zokugcina ziwukuphela komsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, isikhathi sokuphela kwalo msebenzi.

Phakathi nesigaba sikaJesu somsebenzi, maningi amazwi agcina engashiwongo noma angaphiniyiswanga ngokugcwele. Kodwa uJesu akakhathazekanga ngalokho akusho noma angakushongo, ngoba inkonzo Yakhe kwakungeyona inkonzo yamazwi ngakho ngemva kokubethelwa esiphambanweni wahamba. Leso sigaba somsebenzi ikakhulu sasingenxa yokubethelwa, futhi asifani nhlobo nesigaba sanamuhla. Lesi sigaba somsebenzi ikakhulu simayelana nokuqedwa, ukucaciswa kanye nokufinyelelisa wonke umsebenzi esiphethweni. Uma amazwi engakhulunywanga kwaze kwaba sekupheleni kwawo, ngeke ibe khona indlela yokuphetha lo msebenzi ngoba kulesi sigaba somsebenzi wonke umsebenzi ufikiswa ekugcineni futhi ufezwa ngokusebenzisa amazwi.
