Kungani laba bantu bejabule kangaka? Beze komunye wemihlangano yethu emikhulu. Njengezinceku zikaNkulunkulu zangaphambili, ezaziyalwe ukuba zibuthane kathathu ngonyaka, sibheka phambili ekubuthaneni ndawonye sibe baningi. (Duteronomi 16:16) Njalo ngonyaka siba nemihlangano emithathu: umhlangano wosuku olukhethekile, umhlangano wesifunda wezinsuku ezimbili nomhlangano wesigodi wezinsuku ezintathu. Sizuza kanjani kule mibuthano?

Iqinisa ubuzalwane bethu bobuKristu. Njengoba kwakuwathokozisa ama-Israyeli ukudumisa uJehova “phakathi kwezihlwele ezibuthene,” nathi siyakuthokozela ukumkhulekela ndawonye emibuthanweni ekhethekile. (IHubo 26:12; 111:1) Le mibuthano isinika ithuba lokubonana futhi sixoxe noFakazi bakwamanye amabandla noma kwamanye amazwe. Ngekhefu, sidla ndawonye emagcekeni omhlangano, okwenezela emoyeni wobungane kule mibuthano engokomoya. (IzEnzo 2:42) Kuyo, silubona ngokoqobo uthando oluhlanganisa “bonke abazalwane” emhlabeni.​​—1 Petru 2:17.

Ngezinkulumo ezimnandi, uchungechunge nemiboniso, sifunda ukwenza intando kaNkulunkulu. Siyakhuthazeka lapho sizwa okuhlangenwe nakho kwabantu abanqoba ubunzima nezinselele zokuba amaKristu kulezi zikhathi ezinzima. Emihlanganweni yesigodi, amadrama agqokelwe izingubo zasendulo enza uku-landisa kweBhayibheli kube ngokoqobo futhi asifundisa izifundo eziwusizo. Kuyo yonke imihlangano, labo abafuna ukubonakalisa ukuzinikezela kwabo kuNkulunkulu bayabhapathizwa.
