Batismo
O batismo é mandamento de Jesus e proclamação pública de fé. É símbolo de morte para o pecado, sepultamento com Cristo e ressurreição para uma vida nova no Espírito.
O mandamento de Jesus
Ide e fazei discípulos, batizando-os em nome do Pai, do Filho e do Espírito Santo. O batismo é porta de entrada na comunidade cristã.
Buuna yenaani huli mabuli moosi, na saani mo bayihi ba me. Tondehaani bo mu nduhi a Taata, a Mwana, na yi Livupu la Ngidi. Na longesaani bo mu ubaasalila moosi ma me atuma benu. Na yaabaani liniili: me tsa mba na benu bilumbu byosi, natee hu tsukusu a tsi.»
Yisu ayasusaha na aleeli huli bo: «Matwala moosi baava huli me, umata hu yulu natee ŋa toto. Buuna yenaani huli mabuli moosi, na saani mo bayihi ba me. Tondehaani bo mu nduhi a Taata, a Mwana, na yi Livupu la Ngidi. Na longesaani bo mu ubaasalila moosi ma me atuma benu. Na yaabaani liniili: me tsa mba na benu bilumbu byosi, natee hu tsukusu a tsi.»
Mu taangu mo yiina, Yisu amati hu itaanzi hya Ngalili, ayidi hu nzali a Yolodani huli Yowani, mana Yowani atondehe nde.
Pasi muutu wu usa imiinu na wu buutondehe, sa ayoboho. Ka muutu wu uvelesa imiinu sa babelese.
Titswene, nde aleeli bo: «Yenaani mu tsi yoosi, mu uyayabisa Musamu wu Mubwe huli bivaangu bya Nzambi byosi. Pasi muutu wu usa imiinu na wu buutondehe, sa ayoboho. Ka muutu wu uvelesa imiinu sa babelese.
Mu taangu mo yiina, Yisu amati hu musyenge a Nazareti mu itaanzi hya Ngalili, na Yowani atondihi nde mu nzali a Yolodani. Bu Yisu haapali mu nzali, masulubete, nde amoni mayulu maadibumi. Na Livupu laakulimini ŋa yulu a nde we libembe.
Morrer e ressuscitar
Fomos sepultados com Cristo pelo batismo na morte para que andemos em novidade de vida. O batismo é renascimento pelo Espírito.
Benu a liyaabi ve ti, bisu boosi ba laayaki tondihili mu Yisu Kristo, ni mu lipfu la nde batondihi bisu? Mu tondihili mo yiina yi lipfu, badiihi bisu kaka na nde. We bu Kristo hasuuhi mu babakwa mu muyusu a Taata, ni bumosi kaka, bisu luudyata mu moonyi wu munyatihi mu nde.
Benu a liyaabi ve ti, bisu boosi ba laayaki tondihili mu Yisu Kristo, ni mu lipfu la nde batondihi bisu?
Naana ubila ve! Bisu ti laamiikwa mu masumu, ka buni lutwala ubweba moonyi mu masumu? Benu a liyaabi ve ti, bisu boosi ba laayaki tondihili mu Yisu Kristo, ni mu lipfu la nde batondihi bisu? Mu tondihili mo yiina yi lipfu, badiihi bisu kaka na nde. We bu Kristo hasuuhi mu babakwa mu muyusu a Taata, ni bumosi kaka, bisu luudyata mu moonyi wu munyatihi mu nde.
Ni mu buuna, tso bisu laaba itwadi na nde mu lipfu bibaayaka laafwanina na la nde, bumosi kaka, bisu luuba itwadi na nde mu tsuuhili yi yafwanina na ya nde. Ni mu buuna, liyabani ti, imuutu hya bisu a benu hya tsikulu bakomini hyo ŋa muti itwadi na Kristo. Mana itwadi hya bisu na masumu hitabuha, na libwevelebani baviha ba masumu. Mu tooni ati, muutu wu miikwa itwadi na Kristo, aka wu akuha, na amiitahuha na masumu.
Ni mu buuna, ŋa baatondihi benu, baadiihi benu na Kristo, mana benu lisuuha kaka na nde mu babaakwa. Mu tooni ati, benu laamiisa imiinu mu matwala ma Nzambi ma maasuuli nde ŋa hati la babaakwa.
Mu taangu mo yiniiyi, benu boosi laaka baana ba Nzambi mu imiinu mu Yisu Kristo. Mu tooni ati, benu boosi ba baatondehe mu Kristo, benu laamiilwata Kristo.
Yisu afutili nde bunuubu: «Mu mbuli, mu mbuli me ndi mu undeele we, hwavele ubuta muutu mu mamba na mu Livupu, nde utwala ukoto mu ipfumu hya Nzambi ve.
Yisu afutili nde bunuubu: «Mu mbuli, mu mbuli me ndi mu undeele we, hwavele ubuta muutu mu mamba na mu Livupu, nde utwala ukoto mu ipfumu hya Nzambi ve.
Nzambi hafuuhisi bisu, a mu tooni ati bisu laavaanga mambu ma mabwe ve. Naana! Nde hafuuhisi bisu, mu bunene bwa kwili lingebe a nde mu bisu. Nde hafuuhisi bisu, mu taangu yi Livupu la Ngidi laaswahi bisu na laavidi bisu buta li linyatihi.
Mamba mo maana aba ni ifwaani hya tondihili yi yili mu ufuuhasa benu taangu yi. Tondihili mo, a yili mu uswaha mbiindu a nyutu a benu ve. Ka ni mu usobo mbiili ŋa busu bwa Nzambi, mu matsimi ma maatsyeme. Tondihili yili mu ufuuhasa benu, mu tooni ati Yisu Kristo asuuhi mu babaakwa.
Batismo e Espírito
Arrependei-vos e cada um seja batizado. O batismo no Espírito Santo é poder para vida e testemunho.
Peetelo akaali bo: «Sobwaani mbiili, na pasi muutu mu benu batondehe mu nduhi a Yisu Kristo. Saani buuna, mana Nzambi amasa masumu ma benu. Ni huuna benu lu uyaka bungodu bu Livupu la Ngidi.
Peetelo akaali bo: «Sobwaani mbiili, na pasi muutu mu benu batondehe mu nduhi a Yisu Kristo. Saani buuna, mana Nzambi amasa masumu ma benu. Ni huuna benu lu uyaka bungodu bu Livupu la Ngidi.
Kabu li lilahi laasiingi mambu ma Peetelo hakaleele. Baatondihi bo mu nyahulili a masumu. Mu ilumbu mo hiina, we biveeve bitatu (3 000) bya baatu baabiisili kabu la banga hiitu.
Ka bu makonge ma baatu maasiidi hiitu mu Tsaangu Yimbwe yi Filipo hakayabisa bo mu Ipfumu hya Nzambi na mu Yisu Kristo, babahala na bakaasu boosi baayaki tondihili. Simoni nde mwakulu asiidi hiitu, na ayaki tondihili, nde a habwetahuha na Filipo ve. Na nde akakimuha mu bimangu na bipadi bibinene bi byakavangama.
Bu baaba mu nzila, bo baayato ŋa mbuha mosi yi yaba na mamba. Buuna musi Etyopi aleeli: «Mono mamba, hima hyukondosono me mu uyaka tondihili a me?» [] Nde atsikimisi likuumbi. Filipo akulimini na nde hutso a mamba, na atondihi nde. Bu bo baapali hutso a mamba, mawasa-mawasa, Livupu la Pfumu laamasi Filipo ŋa mbuha mo yiina. Mutumi a habwemono nde ve. Ka nde akaduukala nzila a nde na kinya yoosi.
«Utwala uliha baatu mo baniba, ba baamiiyaka Livupu la Ngidi we bisu, mu utondehe bo mu mamba ve.» Buuna Peetelo atumisi ti bo bayaka tondihili mu nduhi a Yisu Kristo. Ba baayaki tondihili, baalembisini Peetelo mu umaakwilala na bo mu mwa matsuhu.
«Utwala uliha baatu mo baniba, ba baamiiyaka Livupu la Ngidi we bisu, mu utondehe bo mu mamba ve.»
Pahuli aleeli bo: «Yowani akatondehe ba baakasiinga usobo mbiili. Nde akaleele huli bisu Isereli, mu usa hiitu mu muutu wu uya ŋa mbisa a nde, muutu mowuna ni Yisu.»
Humbisa uyuha mambu mo maana, bo baayaki tondihili mu nduhi a Pfumu Yisu. Pahuli asuusili bo myoho, na Livupu la Ngidi laakulimini ŋa yulu a bo. Lo laaviidi bo matwala ma utoyo mu mandaha ma baaveleyaba, na ubihula.

Pahuli asuusili bo myoho, na Livupu la Ngidi laakulimini ŋa yulu a bo. Lo laaviidi bo matwala ma utoyo mu mandaha ma baaveleyaba, na ubihula.
Bunuubu, mu hima ubwekeele? Teleme, yaka tondihili na sambila Pfumu a we, mana nde atsyemese we mu masumu ma we."»
Yowani atondihi baatu mu mamba, ka mu bilumbu hole, Nzambi utondehe benu mu Livupu la Ngidi.»
Ka benu lu uyaka matwala, bu Livupu la Ngidi lukulamana ŋa yulu a benu. Benu lu uba bambangi ba me mu Yeruselemi, mu itaanzi hya Yuda hyoosi na hya Samariya, natee hu hwasuka toto.»
Bu bo baakasambila, mbuha yi bo baaba baakuukama yanyingimi. Bo boosi baaluuli mu Livupu la Ngidi, na bo baakayabisa mambu ma Nzambi na hiitu hyoosi.
Humbisa utondehe baatu boosi, Yowani atondihi kaka Yisu. Na bu Yisu hakasambila, yulu laadibumi, na Livupu la Ngidi laakulimini ŋa yulu a nde we libembe. Na ndaha mosi yamati hu yulu: «We ni Mwana a me wu litondo, wu me umbapfulala utondo.»
Ni mu buuna, tso benu baa lili banga bubi, benu li yaabi uva baana ba benu bisiha bibibwe. Tandisini a Taata wa hu yulu, buni nde hu uveleva Livupu la Ngidi huli boosi ba bali mu uvondo nde lo!»
Um batismo
Em um Espírito fomos todos batizados em um só corpo. O batismo é um só, assim como um só é o Senhor e uma só é a fé.
Ni mu buuna, tso hu li Bayudaayo, Bangeleke, baviha, buuve ba bali bunyanga, bisu boosi baatondihi itwadi, mana lituunga nyutu mosi. Mu Livupu la Ngidi ndulu ni lo limosi, bisu boosi laanywidi mu idiinga hya lo.

Benu lili mu utsima ti utwala ukaba Kristo? Pahuli ni wu akwidi ŋa kuruwa mu tooni a benu? Buuve, benu kaahu mu nduhi a Pahuli baatondihi?
Matondo huli Nzambi, bu me aveletondehe tso mumosi ŋa hati la benu, vengo Krisipusi na Ngayusi. Ni mu buuna, muutu tso mumosi a hutwala uleele ve ti, baatondehe nde mu nduhi a me. Eye! Kaahu, me ambwetondehe kaka bisu nzo a Setefano. Me tsimi ti me a haabwetondehe muutu mukima ve. Mu tooni ati, Kristo a haatsindaha me mu utondehe ve. Ka nde atsindaha me mu uyabisa Musamu wu Mubwe, hwavele usalila bitoyili bya tsiki yi imuutu, mana lipfu la Kristo ŋa muti livelefwa matwala.
Me a hakanzaba nde ve. Ka Nzambi atsindihi me mu utondehe mu mamba. Nde aleeli me bunuubu: "Nde wuuna wu we umono Livupu mu ukulamana na utsahala ŋa yulu a nde, ni nde wuuna utondehe mu Livupu la Ngidi."
