Palemba la Genesis 1:27, Baibulo limafotokoza chifukwa chake anthufe timakhala ndi njala yauzimu. Lembali limati: “Mulungu ndipo adalenga munthu m’chifanizo chake, m’chifanizo cha Mulungu adam’lenga iye; adalenga iwo mwamuna ndi mkazi.” Popeza kuti Yehova Mulungu ndi mzimu, anthufe timafanana ndi Mulungu mwa makhalidwe osati mwa maonekedwe.

Iye anapatsidwanso chikumbumtima n’cholinga choti azisankha zinthu mwaufulu koma mogwirizana ndi malamulo a Mulungu. Choncho, anthu analengedwa mosiyana ndi nyama ndipo akhoza kuchita zinthu zimene Mlengi wawo amafuna.—Genesis 1:28; Aroma 2:14.

Baibulo limafotokoza chinthu chofunikira kwambiri chimene chingatithandize kukhala anthu auzimu. Palemba la 1 Akorinto 2:12-15, Baibulo limafotokoza kuti munthu wauzimu amakhala ndi mzimu wochokera kwa Mulungu.

Imathandiza anthu kufufuza ndi kumvetsa zinthu malinga ndi mmene Mulungu amazionera. Koma munthu amene alibe mzimu wa Mulungu amatchedwa munthu wakuthupi, ndipo munthu wotere amaona zinthu zauzimu ngati zosafunikira. Pachifukwa chimenechi, iye sadziwa zambiri.

Ndipotu anthu amene safuna kutsogoleredwa ndi mzimu wa Mulungu ndipo amatsatira zofuna za thupi lawo ndiponso zinthu zimene Mulungu amadana nazo, amatchedwa anthu akuthupi.—1 Akorinto 2:14; Yuda 18, 19.
