Ɔkae sɛ: “Sɛnea mo Agya a ɔwɔ soro no yɛ pɛ no, mo nso monyɛ pɛ saa ara.”—Luka 6:35; Mateo 5:48; Exodus 34:6.\nWɔbɔɔ nnipa wɔ Onyankopɔn suban so, enti nnipa betumi akyerɛ ayamye. (Genesis 1:27) Eyi kyerɛ sɛ yebetumi asuasua Onyankopɔn na yɛakyerɛ ayamye akyerɛ nnipa a wɔnyɛ yɛn abusuafo nso. Bible ka sɛ ayamye yɛ Onyankopɔn honhom kronkron anaa n’adeyɛ tumi aba no fã a ɛho hia paa. (Galatifo 5:22) Enti sɛ obi sua Ɔbɔadeɛ Nyankopɔn no ho ade, na ɔbɛn no a, obetumi anya saa su no bi.\nEsiane sɛ yefi awosu mu wɔ ayamye na ɛho hia Onyankopɔn nti, ntease wom sɛ Onyankopɔn se ‘yɛne yɛn ho nni wɔ ayamye so.’ (Efesofo 4:32) Ɔkae yɛn nso sɛ: “Mommma mo werɛ mmfi ahɔhoyɛ.”—Hebrifo 13:2.\nƐnnɛ, nnipa a wonni ayamye ne bonniayɛfo dɔɔso paa. So yebetumi akyerɛ ayamye akyerɛ nnipa a wɔbɛn yɛn ne ahɔho? Dɛn na ɛbɛboa yɛn ma yɛatumi ayɛ saa?

Paulo de, ɔkae sɛ, wogyee abɔfo a “wɔanhu.” Sɛ yɛbɛka a, sɛ yɛde yɛ yɛn su sɛ yɛbɛkyerɛ ayamye akyerɛ afoforo ne ahɔho anaa nnipa a yennim wɔn a, yebetumi anya akatua a yɛnhwɛ kwan.\nAsɛm a Paulo kae no, sɛ wohwɛ Bible ahorow bi mu a, wubehu sɛ wɔtwe adwene kɔ Abraham ne Lot asɛm a ɛwɔ Genesis ti 18 ne 19 no so. Sɛ yɛkenkan nsɛm abien no nyinaa a, yehu sɛ abɔfo a wohuu wɔn no, na wɔn nyinaa de nsɛm a ɛho hia na ɛnam. Abraham de, abɔfo no ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ Onyankopɔn bɛma ne bɔhyɛ a ɛne sɛ Abraham bɛwo ɔbabarima no aba mu. Lot nso, na abɔfo no rebegye no afi ɔsɛe a ɛbɛba Sodom ne Gomora so no mu.—Genesis 18:1-10; 19:1-3, 15-17.\nSɛ wokenkan kyerɛw nsɛm a ɛwɔ soro hɔ no a, wubehu sɛ na ɛyɛ Abraham ne Lot su sɛ wɔbɛkyerɛ ayamye akyerɛ nnipa a wɔretwam a wonnim wɔn. Israelfo bere so no, na ɛyɛ amammerɛ ne obiara asɛde sɛ ɔbɛkyerɛ ayamye akyerɛ nnamfo, abusuafo ne ahɔho a wɔretwam. Ná Mose Mmara no mpo hwehwɛ sɛ Israelfo no bɛma ahɔho a wɔte wɔn mu no asɛm ahia wɔn. (Deuteronomium 10:17-19) Abraham ne Lot mpo de, wɔyɛ boroo nea akyiri yi mmara no kae sɛ Israelfo no nyɛ no so. Wɔyɛɛ nea wobetumi biara sɛ wɔbɛkyerɛ ayamye akyerɛ ahɔho, na wohyiraa wɔn nso.\nAbraham ayamye no nti wohyiraa no ma onyaa ɔbabarima, na yɛn nso yɛanya nhyira no bi. Ɔkwan bɛn so? Abraham ne ne ba Isak adi dwuma titiriw paa ma Onyankopɔn atirimpɔw aba mu. Wɔn na wɔde wɔn kyekyee abusua a Yesu, Mesia no fi mu bae no.

Ɛnyɛ su a obi pɛ a na ɔda no adi, na mmom ɛyɛ biribi a ɛho hia Onyankopɔn paa.\nYɛda Ayamye Adi a, Ɛma Yehu Onyankopɔn Yiye\nBible ka sɛ yɛn mmere yi mu no, nnipa pii bɛyɛ “bonniayɛfo, wɔn a wonni nokware, wɔn a wonni tema.” (2 Timoteo 3:1-3) Ɛnyɛ dɛn ara a, wobɛtaa ahyia nnipa a wɔwɔ saa subammɔne no bi.
