•   Bhaibheri rinonyevera nezvezvivi zvakakura izvo zvinoita kuti munhu asapinda muUmambo hwaMwari.

Asi Bhaibheri rinoratidza kuti munhu anenge akawana ruponeso anogona kutsauka otangazve kuva netsika yekuita chivi chakakura. Semuenzaniso, VaHebheru 10:26 inoti: “Kana tiine tsika yokuita chivi nemaune pashure pokunge tagamuchira zivo yakarurama pamusoro pechokwadi, hapasisina kana chibayiro chimwe chasara nokuda kwezvivi.”​—VaHebheru 6:4-6; 2 Petro 2:20-22.

(Mateu 24:13; VaHebheru 10:36; 12:2, 3; Zvakazarurwa 2:10) VaKristu vepakutanga vakafara chaizvo pavakaziva kuti vamwe vavo vaitsungirira mukutenda kwavo. (1 VaTesaronika 1:2, 3; 3 Johani 3, 4) Zvingava nemusoro here kuti Bhaibheri risimbise nyaya yekutsungirira takatendeka kana kuri kuti vaya vasina kutsungirira vanozongopona zvakadaro?
