Abanye kambe bashumayela uKristu ngomhawu nangombango kepha abanye ngenhliziyo enhle; laba bashumayela ngothando, bazi ukuthi ngimiselwe ukuvikela ivangeli, kepha labo bamemezela uKristu ngombango kungenganhliziyo emhlophe, bethi bazakungivusela ukukhathazeka ekuboshweni kwami. Kunani pho? Nokho uKristu uyamenyezelwa ngezindlela zonke, noma ngokuzenzisa noma ngesiminya; kulokho-ke ngiyathokoza, yebo, ngiyakuthokoza
