Fasin blong kros i neva save win. Fasin blong no akseptem wan tingting i no save mekem wan i kam moa gud. Fasin blong raorao i neva givim wan gud ansa wetem insperesen. Sori tumas tu se samtaem yumi luk ol fasin blong raorao iven long medel blong ol memba blong jos blong yumi. Yumi harem olgeta we oli no tritim gud ol hasban mo waef mo ol pikinini, blong olgeta we oli yusum ol strong toktok blong kontrolem ol narawan, mo long olgeta we oli stap panisim ol famli memba wetem fasin blong no wantem toktok long olgeta. Yumi harem abaot ol yut mo ol pikinini we oli stap spolemgud olgeta mo abaot ol wokman we oli stap putumdaon ol fren blong wok blong olgeta.
Ol dia brata mo sista blong mi. I no mas olsem. Olsem ol disaepol blong Jisas Kraes, yumi mas stap ol eksampol long hao blong toktok wetem ol narawan—speseli taem yumi no agri wetem wan samting. Wan long ol isi wei blong faenemaot wan tru man blong folem Jisas Kraes, hem i hao wan man i mekem gud wan nara man wetem lav mo sore.
Sevya i mekem i klia gud long ol toktok blong Hem long ol man we i stap folem Hem long tufala saed blong wol. “Olgeta we oli man blong mekem pis oli save harem gud,” Hem i talem.1 “Sipos wan man i slavem fes blong yu long raet saed, yu mas letem hem i slavem yu long lef saed tu.”2 Mo afta, i tru, Hem i givim komanmen ia olsem wan jalenj blong wanwan long yumi “Yufala i mas lavem ol enemi blong yufala, mo yufala i mas prea from olgeta we oli stap mekem i nogud tumas long yufala.”3
Bifo Hem i ded, Sevya i bin givim komanmen long olgeta Twelef Aposol blong lavem wanwan long olgeta olsem we Hem i bin lavem olgeta.4 Mo afta Hem i ademap, “Nao from we yufala i stap lavlavem yufala, bambae olgeta man oli luksave se yufala i man blong mi.”5
Mesej blong Sevya i klia: Ol tru disaepol blong Hem, oli bildim, leftemap, leftemap tingting, pulum intres, mo givim insperesen—nomata se situesen i olsem wanem. Ol tru disaepol blong Jisas Kraes, oli stap putum pis.6

Jisas Kraes i talem se olgeta we i gat “spirit blong raorao” i no blong Hem, be hem i “blong devel, we i papa blong raorao, mo [devel] i tantanem hat blong ol man blong raorao wetem kros, wan wetem narawan.”8 Olgeta we oli sapotem fasin blong raorao, i olsem we oli wantem folem Setan, iven sapos oli luksave o no luksave. “I no gat man i save wok blong tu masta.”9 Yumi no save sapotem Setan wetem ol rabis toktok mo afta ting se yumi save gohed blong givim seves long God.

Blong stap bildim gud koneksen mo filing wetem ol nara man i wanem we yu nidim moa, mo hemia i wanem we ol fren blong yu i nidim.

Oli save se mi wantem harem ol tingting mo ones filing abaot evri samting we mifala i toktok raon long hem—speseli ol jalenj we i afektem kwik wan.
