 IBhayibhili liyasixwayisa ngezinto eziphathelane lesidimoni. Lithi:

 ‘Akungabi lamuntu phakathi kwenu . . . oyisanuse loba ochasisa ngemibono, ochasisa imilingo njalo ophathelene lobuthakathi, ophosayo, loba olamadlozi loba olemimoya loba okhangelele kwabafileyo. Loba ngubani owenza lezizinto uyisinengiso kuJehova.’​—UDutheronomi 18:10-​12.

 Kungani iBhayibhili lisithi izinto zesidimoni zimbi?

•   Ukuthanda izinto zesidimoni kwenza sibe lobungane lamadimoni. IBhayibhili lisitshela ukuthi kulezingilosi ezahlamuka zaba yizitha zikaNkulunkulu. (UGenesisi 6:2; UJuda 6) Izingilosi lezi ezimbi ezibizwa ngokuthi ngamadimoni zidukisa abantu zisebenzisa izangoma, osiyazi lalabo abachasisa amaphupho. Ukwenza izinto lezi kumbe ukuya ebantwini abenza lokhu kusenza sibe yizitha zikaNkulunkulu.

•   Abantu abenza ezesidimoni bangakhanya angathi bayenelisa ukubona okuzakwenzakala kwelakusasa. Kodwa nguNkulunkulu kuphela owenza “isiphetho sazakale kusukela ekuqaleni; lokuzakwenzakala kusukela ezikhathini zasendulo.”​—U-Isaya 46:10; UJakhobe 4:13, 14.

•   Abantu abenza isidimoni benza kukhanye angani bayenelisa ukukhuluma labantu abafileyo. Kodwa iBhayibhili lithi: “Abafileyo kabazi lutho;  . . Engcwabeni lapho oya khona akusetshenzwa, akulakulungiselela, kakulalwazi kumbe ukuhlakanipha.”​—UmTshumayeli 9:​5, 10.

 Ngenxa yezizatho lezi oFakazi bakaJehova abazihlanganisi laloba yini elesidimoni. Kabazilibazisi langezinto ezitshengisa izipoko, amavempaya kumbe amasalamusi. Intombazane okuthiwa nguMaria ithi: “Nxa ngingabona ukuthi engifuna ukukubukela kulesidimoni ngihle ngitshiyane lakho.” a

•   Zimisele “ukuba lomzwangedwa omsulwa” phambi kukaJehova ngokungazihlanganisi laloba yini ephathelane lesidimoni.​—ImiSebenzi 24:16.

•   Lahla konke ongabe ulakho okuphathelane lesidimoni. Bala ImiSebenzi 19:19, 20 ukuze ubone okwenziwa ngamanye amaKhristu ayelohlupho lolu.

 Khumbula ukuthi nxa ungazimisela ukutshiyana lezinto zesidimoni uyabe utshengisa ukuthi usekela uJehova njalo lokhu kuzamthokozisa kakhulu!​—IZaga 27:11.
