Deus nos chamou
Deus nos chamou antes da fundação do mundo. Ele nos conhece pelo nome, nos predestinou para sermos conforme a imagem de Cristo e nos capacita para o chamado.
Chamados por Deus
Os que Deus predestinou, também os chamou. O Seu chamado é irrevogável — fundamentado no propósito eterno e na graça abundante.
Na tepani tumanyi kubha, kubhokana na mambu ghanihagha ghokapi, Chapanga ahenga lihengu papamu na bhala bhabhumpala, mu kubhapekeha mambu ghambone, yani, bhala bhabhalowakiki kwa ndandi jaki. Kwa ndandi bhala bhaakabhamanyi kutumbu pakutumbula, nde bhaabhalowiki bhapata kulengana na Mwana waki, nahuli Mwana abya mbelakeka wa kutumbula pachilanda ja bhalongu bhamaheli. Na bhala bhaakahawili kutumbu pakutumbula, nde bhala bhaakalohike, na bhala bhaakalohike, bhanihabha nde bhaakabhatendiki bhajetakaliwaje palongi jaki, na bhala bhaakabhajetakili palongi jaki, bhanihabha nde bhaakabhalumbalile.
Nundobha Chapanga ahoghula mihu gha mitima jinu nahuli mpata kuubhona unang’anu waki, mpata kumanya lihobhalelu lela leandokile na umaheli wa hindu yaki na ulumbalilu ukolongwa wa nhupu wa upwelelu ghoabhabhekili bhandu bhaki, na mpata kumanya ntundu uwezu waki moubheli ukolongwa nakanopi kwa ndandi jitu tepani tetuhobhalela. Uwezu hoghu ghouhenga lihengu mkati jitu na ulengana na makili ghala makolongwa nakanopi,
Henu ngawibhona ihoni kundandila Bambo witu, wala ngawibhona ihoni kwa ndandi jangu nepani nengongakiki kwa ndandi jaki, nambu uhinakalyaje mang’ahiku papamu na nepani kwa ndandi ja Malobhi Manyahi, kwa makili ghaupekewa na Chapanga. Jombi akatukengalili na akatulohiki tutamaje matamu mahuhu, nga kwa kulengana na matendu ghitu ghamboni nambu ngati bhela moakapali mweni na chihomu chaki. Chihomu hechi tupekiwi muka Kristo Yesu mangani ja kutumbula kwa chikahi, nambu sajenu chiyekuliwi kwitu kwa kuhika kwaki Mkengalela witu, Kristo Yesu. Jombi ayoningi makili gha nyiwa, na kwa indela ja Malobhi Manyahi auyekwi womi wanga na nyiwa.
Nambu ananjomwi kung’ahakika kwa chikahi kichokope, Chapanga wa chihomu chokapi na ambaju andoha mwenga kujingila mu ulumbalilu waki wa mileli mu kulombana na Kristo Yesu, jombi mweni anaantenda kubha bhomi kabhete na kumpeke ukangamalu na makili, na kumpeke luhuli lwa chakaka.
A resposta ao chamado
Ninguém pode vir a mim se o Pai não o atrair. Deus escolheu os fracos para confundir os fortes — e nos chamou para a luz.
Nga mundu joaweza kuhika kwangu nepani, nangakuhutwa na Atati joandumike, na nepani ananimuyohaje mu lichobha la kujomukela.
Bhalongu bhangu, mkombukaje chikahi pamukalowakiki, bhamaheli bhinu bhakabhi nga mbulau hata kwa maholalelu gha bhandu, bhamaheli bhakabhi nga bhandu bhabhabhi na makili au bhandu bhabhabhi na yeu bhabhalowakike. Nambu Chapanga akaihawili hindu ing’ang’a ya ndema nahuli iwezaje kuipoha lihamu yeibhi na mbulau, na Chapanga akaihawili hindu zaifu ya ndema ghoni nahuli iwezaje kuipoha lihamu yeibhi na makili.
Bhalongu bhango bhapalu, njowanyaje! Bho, Chapanga ngacheakahawili bhahochu bha ndema ghoni bhakubhaje bhana hindu yamaheli ya uhobhalelu na bhapwelelu bha ukolongwa ghoakabhalaghile bhala bhabhumpala?
Jombi atukengalili kuhuma mu makili gha lubhendu, na kutujingiha mu ukolongwa waka Mwana waki mpalu. Ambaju kwaka jombi tukombulewa, yani mahoku ghitu ghabhohakeka.
Petulu akabhayangike, "Ng’anambukaje na kughaleka mahoku ghinu na kila jumu winu abatizwaje kwa lihina laka Yesu Kristo nahuli mpata kugholuleka mahoku ghinu na kujopalela nhupu wa Roho Mhuhu. Maghambu chilanga chela chakabhi kwa ndandi jinu, kwa ndandi ja bhana bhinu, kwa ndandi ja bhokapi bhabhatama kutali na kwa ndandi ja kila mundu ambaju Bambo Chapanga witu anaandoa kwake."
Confirmando o chamado
Procurai tornar cada vez mais firme a vossa vocação. Deus começou a boa obra e a completará até o dia de Cristo.
Bhela bhalongu bhango, mtendaje ukangamalu nakanopi kuutenda ulowakeku winu hoghu ghondowakiki na Chapanga ubyaje lijambu la kutamakila mu matamu ghinu; ngati anamtama kwa ntundu ghonihoghu ngamwihabhuki ng’o. Kwa ntundu ghonihoghu anamuwezaje kupekewa lujeku lwa kujingila mu ukolongwa wa mileli waka Bambo na Mkengalela witu Yesu Kristo.
Bhela, mi na uchakaka kubha Chapanga joatumbwili lihengu aleli lamboni mkati jinu, anaajendalya kutenda bhenibhela mbaka palikamikaje mu lichobha lela laka Yesu Kristo.
