So whether our home will be in heaven with Jesus or on a paradise earth , Pentecost of the year 33 is very important to us . - See endnote .

Fale ina bɛ mu yɛ ma ngelegohu lɔ mua Yesu - ni ɔɔ mu yɛ ma ndunyama alijɛni hu lɔ , Pɛntikɔstii vui na yɛni a foo magbeengɔ wa lɔ mu va . - Njiei nasia gaa ti kakei ji gɛlɛmi .

Why should we be interested in the book of Hebrews ?

Gbɛva mia kungɔ kɔlei na hinda i gbee mu ma Pɔɔl nyɛini Hiblubleisia gama ?

He felt that he could talk to Jehovah about anything , even asking for help when he struggled with difficult questions .

So how did Abraham learn about Jehovah ?

( Jɔsua 24 : 2 ) Eblaham ye naa kaa wueni kɔlongɔ Jɛhova ma ?

( See paragraph 7 )

( Njɛpɛ wumbuma 7 gbee )

But this does not mean that our family background will determine the type of person we will become .

Let us take a close look at three of Jehovah 's friends described in the Bible : ( 1 ) Ruth , the loyal young widow from Moab , ( 2 ) Hezekiah , a faithful king of Judah , and ( 3 ) Mary , the humble mother of Jesus .

A mu yɛpɛ lɛ naa kɔlongɔ Jɛhova ndiamɔ sawanga ma nahi Baibui yɛpɛni kɔlongɔ ti ma : ( 1 ) Luut , pondo nyahin na gbuani Moab nahi tɔnya lomi yɛ ngi lii hu , ( 2 ) Hɛsikaya , na yɛni a Maha lɔnyangɔ yia na yɛ Juda mahu , kɛ ( 3 ) Mɛɛli , Yesu ngi nje .

He warned David to hide and then told Saul why he should let David live . - Read 1 Samuel 19 : 1 - 6 .

I Devidi lahi lɔ kɔ i lɔwu , kɛ i ndenga Sɔɔl ma kɛ ii guni i Devidi waa . - I Samuɛl 19 : 1 - 6 , gaa .

Eventually , Abraham and Lot learned that those strangers were actually angels .

Kɛɛ na woma , ti kɔɔilɔ kɛ ye hotangei nasia ti yɛni a maikanga lɔ .

I have made many friends at Bethel and in the congregation .

Ngi ndiamɔya gboto gbatɛilɔ Bɛtɛl kɛ jamaa hu .

Jehovah 's people are known for their brotherly love .

Ti Jɛhova mableisia gɔɔ lɔ kɛ ti longoi a ti ndeengeisia .

However , what could happen if one of our brothers or sisters was disciplined because he or she did not obey God 's commands ?

( I Pita 2 : 12 ) Kɛɛ gbɔɔ a wue ji ta ndahi kpakpau ve mu ndee wɛ ɔɔ ti ngi gbua jamaa ma jifa ii jiani a Ngewɔ jaweisia ?

Later , when David was an old man , he gave many valuable things to help build Jehovah 's temple .

( II Samuɛl 12 : 1 - 5 , 13 ) Tao ji Devidi wovani , i haiŋ bagbangɔnga veilɔ kɔ i kpɔma wue Jɛhova hɛ wɛlei loo va .

Just as it has taught you , remain in union with him . "

Why should God 's forgiveness motivate us to forgive our brothers ?

Manumi na Ngewɔ a kɛ a mue , a ye gbɔ mu ma kɔ mu yaa manu mu ndeengeisia ma ?

Paul knew that if we accept Jesus ' great love , it will compel us , or motivate us , to love and honor Jesus .

Pɔɔl yɛ kɔɔ lɔ kɛ mu kɔɔnga kɛ ndoma wa mia Yesu kɛni nuuvuisia va , na a kpɔnda lɔ mu ma , ɔɔ a mu lii wumbu lɔ kɔ mu lo a Yesu tao mu bagɔɔ ngi ma .

Surely , we feel the same way .

A tɔnya , pili yakpi ji mia mua bɛ mua gii la .

David understood what he needed to do to be loyal to Jehovah .

Devidi yɛ kɔɔ lɔ na mahoungɔ yɛla i pie kɔ i wɔna a Jɛhova .

Today , Jehovah invites us to do all we can to support his Kingdom .

Ha bɛ , Jɛhova mu lolinga kɔ mu na gbi wue mua gu a pie la kɔ mu loko hei ngi Mahayei bu .

Soon , my joy in the ministry increased . "

Hu ii lɛmbini ngi kohunɛ majɔɔilɔ Ngewɔ layia lelei hu . "

And when trust has been broken , it can be very difficult to rebuild .

Ji numu fele ta la a ti nyɔunyɔu , na a pie lɔ tɛɛ luwa ti nyɔunyɔu ma nɛmahu .

But most of all , we need love from Jehovah .

Kɛɛ numui na mu gbeengɔ ngi lomi va i lee kpɛlɛ ma ta mia a Jɛhova .

IT WAS Sunday morning in Jerusalem .

LAHADI volo yia ma a ngendei hinda wa wueilɔ Jelusalɛm .

Remember those who are taking the lead .

A gii a nasia ti wu mahu .

Why did Paul use that expression ?

( II Kɔrintabla 9 : 15 ) Gbɛva mia Pɔɔl nduawoni hi ?

Let us imitate her example , humbly accept the assignment , and trust that Jehovah will help us .

A nyande lɔ mu too tɔmasei na woma Mɛɛli kɛni a ji mua mua yekpe mayei mu loko hei ye ngingi bu , tao mu liivaa Jɛhova ma kɛ a gbɔɔ mu ma .

Why do you need to be careful about the way you treat those who eat the bread and drink the wine at the Memorial ?

Gbɛva mia kungɔ bi bi mahugbe a pili na ba jia a nasia ta bledi na mɛ tao ta ndɔi na gbɔi ta tee Kiiya gomi hu ?

How can you be loyal to both Jehovah and your friend or relative ? You too can be loyal to Jehovah first and be loyal to others by being kind .

Ji bi ndiamɔ yekpe ɔɔ bi mamɔ a jumbuma hinda wa wue , ba ye kɛ kɛ bi wɔnagoi a ngie kɛ Jɛhova ?

When we keep busy preaching , studying , and doing things for others in the congregation , we are protected because we do not have time to worry too much about our own problems .

Ji mua mu nɛmahui wu Ngewɔ layia lelei ma , Baibui gaa wuelei ma , tao mua gbɔ nunga yekeisia ma jamaa hu , na a mu mahugbe lɔ gbɛva see wati ɛɛ yɛ na kɔ mu hei mu gii a mu mahindeisia .

We can show that we love those taking the lead in Jehovah 's organization by the way we treat them .

Mua kɛ lɔ kɛ mu longoi a mahugbeblei nasia ti Jɛhova hugbatei hu ji mua bagɔɔmi gɛ a tie .

How does God 's love motivate us to love our brothers ?

Ndomi na Ngewɔ lii hu mu va a ye gbɔ mu ma kɔ mu lo a mu ndeengeisia ?

Most people glance at themselves in a mirror every morning before going out in public .

Nunga gbotoma ta tia yekpe gbee lɔ mɛmɛ hu ngenda gbi pɛiŋ ta yaa li hinda .

Also , some anointed ones might not stay faithful .

( Galesiabla 2 : 4 , 5 ; I Jɔn 2 : 19 ) Tao kɛnga a wue lɔ gbɔma kɛ malibla lɛnga tɛɛ lɛ gulɔma a wɔna la a Jɛhova .

Would she feel that her husband loves her and respects the marriage arrangement ? - Matthew 5 : 28 .

Bi langɔ la kɛ a gii lɔ kɛ ngi hini longoi a ngie tao kɛ i bagɔɔ lɔ heinyɔya hindei ma ? - Matiu 5 : 28 .

What does Christ 's love motivate us to do ?

Gbɛ mia Klisti lomi a mu lii wumbu pie va ?

What did the high priest and the offering he made every Pentecost represent ?

Gbɛ mia bledi nasia ti yɛ looni fa i yɛ a kpua a saa Pɛntikɔstii volo gbi lee ma ?

How does this help us to show brotherly love ?

Ji a ye gbɔ mu ma kɔ mu ndomi gɛ a mu ndeengeisia ?

How did Jonathan treat his father ?

Jonɛtan ye jiani a ngi kɛkɛ ?

As we prepare for the Memorial , we might ask ourselves : ' Have I been hurt by a brother ?

Sia mu mua yekpe magbatɛma Kiiya Gomi va , a nyande lɔ mu mua yekpe mɔli a mɔli jisia : ' Nya mbaa Klistimamɔ gbi lɔ na , na nya gbalɛma hinda wuenga ?

However , the more problems our brothers have , the more opportunities we have to show how much we love them .

( Hinda Gɛngɔ 6 : 5 , 6 ) Kɛɛ na hindei le , sia lee kpagbama hindeisia ta mu ndeenga mai , hi mia mua gu sabu ma kɔ mu kɛ kɛ mu longoi vui a tie .

We should also avoid asking questions that could hurt others .

( I Tɛsaloniabla 2 : 12 ) A nyande lɔ kɔ mu lapi kɔ mua numu mɔli a mɔli gbi na a waa ngi ma .

Abraham and Sarah come to know and worship Jehovah

Eblaham tia Seela ti Jɛhova gɔɔilɔ tao ti ngi vɛilɔ

It is more like a beautiful flower that needs water and care to bloom .

Kɔ i gbekpe kungɔ bi yaa njei wu ma tao ba mahugbe .

Does that mean that Abraham is the only human ever to become Jehovah 's friend ?

Kɛ Eblaham mia lee nuuvu le na wotenga a Jɛhova ndiamui ?

But later , that slave did not forgive a fellow slave a much smaller debt of only 100 denarii .

Kɛɛ na woma ye bɔilupui na ii manuni ngi mbaa bɔilupui ma na kungɔ yɛla i ngi pawa a dinailɔsi 100 yakpe .

We do not want to be like Diotrephes , who did not welcome the brothers visiting his congregation because he did not respect them .

Mu gbi mui loni mu wue sia Dayotɛfis yɛna , na ii yɛ a ngi ndeengeisia gulu ti yɛ a li ti jamaa hu ajifa bagɔɔma ii yɛ ngi yeya ti va .

Others have found the same to be true .

Nunga yekeisia bɛ ti tɔnga kɛ ndahi nasia ti Baibui hu ti lɔnyangɔ .

One widower who was 84 years old thought that he could not pioneer because of his age and poor health .

Pondo hindo yia na ngi vui gungɔ yɛla a fo 84 yɛɛ a gii la kɛ ɛɛ gu i pelela yingi wue ngi vui va , kɛ jifa kahugbua yekpe ii yɛ ngi wɛ .

Third , remember what Jesus taught us : " All things , therefore , that you want men to do to you , you also must do to them . "

( Matiu 23 : 8 ) Ye sawei , nda nɛmahu na Yesu yɛ ndeni yɛɛ : " Hindɛisia gbi wu loni nunga ti pie a wue , a pie hi a tie bɛ . "

He is sure that he has been invited to go to heaven .

A kɔɔ lɔ vui kɛ Jɛhova ngi lolinga kɔ i li ngelegohu .

IN THE year 61 , the congregations throughout Israel enjoyed relative peace .

FUI JI hu 61 , jamaa nasia kpɛlɛ ti yɛ Isuɛl lɔlei hu , ti yɛɛ kulo ndiilɛi hu .

Instead , when we love our brothers , we think about their feelings before we say or do something .

Kɛɛ ina mu longoi a mu ndeenga , mua gii lɔ a tie pɛiŋ mua ya yɛpɛ ɔɔ hinda gbi wue .

Yet after becoming king , David committed serious sins .

Kɛɛ ji Devidi woteni a mahin , i jumbuma hindanga wueilɔ .

His traveling partner Timothy had just been freed from prison , and together they hoped to visit the brothers in Judea .

Timɔti na tia ta ti yɛ a jia jamaasia mahu ti yɛ ngi gbuanga lɔ lee kpindi wɛlei bu tao i yɛɛ ti magaa hu kɔ ti li ti ndeengeisia gama Judia lɔlei hu .

For example , when Jehovah said that he would destroy the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah , Abraham was concerned .

Tɔmasei gɛ va , ji Jɛhova ndeni kɛ i Sɔdɔm tia Gɔmɔla jukuuma , Eblaham liinyanilɔ .

( 4 ) Do I need to worry when I see the number of those who eat the bread and drink the wine at the Memorial going up ?

( 4 ) Kungɔ ngi lii hɛɛ ina nasia ta bledi na mɛ kɛ ndɔi na gbɔi ta tee Kiiya Gomi hu ti jikei lɛilɔ gulɔma a mato la ?

How can we show love for them ?

( I Jɔn 3 : 16 ) Mua ye kɛ kɛ mu longoi a tie ?

And we should not think that their husband or wife , their parents , or other family members are also anointed .

( I Tɛsaloniabla 4 : 11 ; II Tɛsaloniabla 3 : 11 ) Tao ii guni mu gii la kɛ ti hinga ɔɔ ti nyahanga , ɔɔ ti mabla yekeisia bɛ ti malingoi .

It was that quality that motivated Abraham to obey Jehovah .

( Saam 25 : 14 , NW ) Piehinda yekpi na mia pieni Eblaham goloni Jɛhova wɛ .

How can you avoid falling into the trap of dishonesty ?

Bi ndiamɔ yekpe wa gbi ndɛɛ gulanga wɔɔ gba bi wɛ ?

Jonathan told David : " Do not be afraid , for my father Saul will not find you ; you will be king over Israel , and I will become second to you . " - 1 Samuel 23 : 16 , 17 .
