Ritim: Kamapim Tok Hait 21:9-14
Orait na ol i tromoi ston bilong makim husat i mas kisim dispela wok, na ston bilong Matias i kamap. Olsem na ol i putim em wantaim ol 11-pela aposel. —Aposel 1:26
Jisas i go antap long heven pinis na Holi Spirit i no kam daun yet, na ol disaipel i wet i stap long Jerusalem. Long dispela taim ol i makim wanpela aposel bilong kisim ples bilong Judas Iskariot.
Planti lain i tok olsem ol disaipel i mekim rong taim ol i mekim olsem. Planti ol i ting olsem dispela pasin bilong tromoi ston em i no gutpela long painimaut tingting bilong God. Sampela lain i ting olsem God em i no laik olsem Matias i kisim ples bilong Judas, na ol i laik makim Pol bilong kisim ples bilong Judas. Tasol yumi mas klia olsem, Pol yet i no tok olsem em i wanpela bilong ol dispela 12- pela aposel, maski em i stap wanpela aposel (1 Korin 15:5-9). Na Buk Baibel i no tok olsem dispela samting ol disaipel mekim i kranki.
Bikpela bilong ol i lusim ol pinis, na Spirit i no kam yet. Long dispela 10-pela de, ol disaipel i mekim tupela samting: Ol i prea planti, na ol i soim bilip bilong ol taim ol i makim Matias. Ol i bilip olsem Bikpela bai pinisim wok bilong em. Em bai “i stap king bilong ol lain bilong Jekop oltaim” (Luk 1:33). Ol Aposel i bilip olsem Jisas bai i pinisim wok bilong em, na tu ol i save long wok bilong ol yet insait long dispela wok bilong Krais. Ol i save olsem ol i nidim 12-pela aposel, bikos as bilong ol lain bilong God i dispela 12-pela lain bilong Israel. Na olgeta lain bilong God bai i sanap antap long wok bilong dispela 12-pela aposel Krais yet i makim.
Ol aposel i stap redi long kisim dispela man bai i stretim Jerusalem na inapim olgeta promis bilong em.
Long Kamapim Tok Hait 21 yumi i lukim wanpela piksa long taim wok bilong Spirit bilong Krais bai pinis: Jerusalem em i naispela tru. Na dispela 12-pela nem long ol pikinini man bilong Israel i stap long ol dua is stap long banis bilong dispela taun, na dispela banis bilong taun em i gat 12-pela ston bilong strongim as bilong en, na nem bilong ol 12-pela disaipel i stap long ol dispela ston.
Yumi i mas holim wankain bilip olsem ol aposel, na yumi i mas redi long mekim wok long kingdom bilong God. Yumi i mas prea strong olsem: “Bikpela, Man bilong wokim haus, yu mas hariap long mekim wok!”
