abanyabyaha bari mu nzira y’irimbukiro bakaberekeza mu nzira y’ubutungane.
Ubwo Yohani Wesley yavugaga ku byo we na bagenzi be baregwa yaravuze ati : ” Bamwe
barega bavuga ko inyigisho z’abo bantu ari ibinyoma, ubuyobe kandi ari ubwaka; kandi ko
batari barigeze bazumva kuva kera kugeza icyo gihe; ko yaba ari amahame ayobya, ubwaka
n’ubupapa. Ibyo birego byose byamaze kujya binengwa uhereye mu mizi, kubera ko
byagaragaye rwose ko buri cyiciro cy’ayo mahame ari inyigisho yumvikana y’Ibyanditswe
Byera nk’uko bisobanurwa n’itorero ryacu. Kubw’ibyo rero, ayo mahame ntashobora kuba
ibinyoma cyangwa ngo abe ayobya mu gihe Ibyanditswe ari iby’ukuri.” “Abandi barega
bagira bati, ‘Inyigisho zabo ntizikebakeba rwose; batuma inzira ijya mu ijuru irushaho
gufungana.’ Kandi mu by’ukuri, iki ni cyo cy’ishingiro duhakana, (nk’uko ari cyo cyonyine
cyigeze kubaho mu gihe runaka,) kandi mu buryo bw’ibanga ni nacyo gishamikiyeho ibindi
byinshi cyane byigaragaza mu buryo butandukanye. Ariko se abo bantu baba batuma inzira
igana ijuru irushaho gufungana kuruta uko Umwami wacu n’intumwa ze babigenje? Mbese
amahame yabo yaba akomeye kuruta avugwa na Bibiliya? Muzirikane gusa amasomo make
yumvikana: “Ukundishe Uwiteka Imana yawe umutima wawe wose, n’ubugingo bwawe
bwose, n’imbaraga zawe zose, n’ubwenge bwawe bwose, kandi ukunde na mugenzi wawe
nk’uko wikunda.’ 279 ‘Kandi ndababwira yuko ijambo ryose ry’impfabusa abantu bavuga
bazaribazwa ku munsi w’amateka.’ 280 ‘Namwe iyo murya, cyangwa munywa, cyangwa
mukora ikindi kintu cyose, mujye mukorera byose guhimbaza Imana.” 281
“Niba inyigisho zabo zikomeye kurusha ibi byavuzwe n’Ibyanditswe, bakwiriye
kubarwaho ikosa; ariko mu mitima yanyu muzi neza ko atari ko bimeze. Nyamara se ni nde
wavuga ko yakoroshyaho n’akanyuguti kamwe ntabe agoretse ijambo ry’Imana? Mbese
umuntu uwo ari we wese w’igisonga wabikijwe ubwiru bw’Imana yagaragara ko ari
indakemwa mu gihe ahinduye umugabane umwe w’ibyo yabikijwe? —Oya. Ntacyo
yagabanya, ntacyo yakoroshya. Ahubwo ategetswe kubwira abantu bose ati, ‘Ntabwo
nshobora gucisha bugufi Ibyanditswe kugira ngo bihuze n’ibibashimisha. Mugomba
kuzamuka mugashyikira urwego bibasaba kugeraho bitaba ibyo mukazarimbuka by’iteka
ryose.’ Imvugo ya rubanda ni uko abo bantu badafite urukundo. Koko se nta rukundo bafite?
Ni mu ruhe rwego? Mbese ntibagaburira abashonji kandi bakambika abambaye ubusa? ‘Oya
rwose; aho siho hari ikibazo: Ibi ntibabura kubikora rwose, ahubwo nta rukundo bagira mu
gushyira mu gaciro! Batekereza ko nta muntu ushobora gukizwa uretse abagendera mu nzira
nabo banyuramo.” 282

Wesley atangira umurimo we, cyane cyane byari ingaruka y’inyigisho zavugaga ko kwizera
konyine ari ko guhesha agakiza kandi ko umuntu adakeneye kumvira amategeko y’Imana.
283 Abantu benshi bemezaga ko Kristo yakuyeho amategeko y’Imana kandi ko kubera ibyo,
bitakiri ngombwa ko Abakristo bayubahiriza; bakavuga ko uwizera yabatuwe mu “bubata
