Mlembi wa Ahebri analemba kuti: "Tiyeni tigwire mwamphamvu chiyembekezo chimene taulula, chifukwa tingakhulupirire Mulungu kuchita zimene analonjeza." Ahebri 10:23 (NCV). Ndipo pa 2 Akorinto 4:13,16 (NCV) Paulo akuti: "Kwalembedwa m'Malemba, 'Ndinakhulupirira, chotero ndinalankhula.' Chikhulupiriro chathu chili chonchi, komanso. Timakhulupirira, ndipo kotero timalankhula ... Choncho sitigonja. Thupi lathu lakuthupi likukula ndi kufooka, koma mzimu wathu mkati mwathu umapangidwa kukhala watsopano tsiku lililonse."

Sitiyenera kuyesa kufotokoza kutali tchimo lathu, koma kunena, "Zoona, ndachimwa, koma palibe kusiyana, chifukwa zimene uthenga wabwino ukulonjeza ndi zoona, ngakhale ine sindili pomwepo. Ndidzachita zimene Baibulo limanena ndi kulipira mtengo wake, ndipo n'zotsimikizika kotheratu kuti ndidzakwaniritsa cholingacho!"
"Koma mwagwanso," akutero Satana, "ndipo sizinafike nthawi yaitali kuchokera pamene munagwa."
"Sizipanga kusiyana kulikonse," mumatero. "Uthenga wabwino ndi woona!"
Timataya kulimba mtima mosavuta

Amaona zonse ndipo ndithudi adzakonza zinthu zonse kuti Iye akhale ndi nthawi yokwanira yomaliza ntchitoyo. Atamandidwe akhale Mulungu!
