“Na eyi ne daa nkwa, sɛ wobehu wo, nokware Nyankopɔn koro no, ne nea wosomaa no, Yesu Kristo no.”—YOHANE 17:3.
1. Dɛn nti na Onyankopɔn ne Yesu Kristo ho nokware nimdeɛ ho hia kɛse saa?
ONYANKOPƆN ne ne Ba, Yesu Kristo ho nokware nimdeɛ ho hia ma wɔn a wɔpɛ daa nkwa no. “[Onyankopɔn] pɛ sɛ wogye nnipa nyinaa nkwa na wɔba nokware nimdeɛ mu.” (1 Timoteo 2:4) Saa nimdeɛ a efi Onyankopɔn Asɛm, Bible, a efi honhom mu no mu no besiesie yɛn ma yɛahu onii a Onyankopɔn yɛ ne asɛyɛde a yɛwɔ wɔ ne ho.

(Yohane 8:44) Enti, sɛ nkyerɛkyerɛ bi ne Onyankopɔn Asɛm bɔ abira, sɛ ɛyɛ atoro a, ɛnde gye a yegye di na yɛde kyerɛkyerɛ afoforo no sɛe Yehowa din na ɛma yɛyɛ n’atamfo.

3. Bible no nkyerɛkyerɛ a emu da hɔ a ɛfa Onyankopɔn, Yesu Kristo ne honhom kronkron ho no ne dɛn?
3 Sɛnea yɛadi kan asua no, Baasakoro nkyerɛkyerɛ no nyɛ Bible nkyerɛkyerɛ.

(Adiyisɛm 4:11; Kolosefo 1:15, 16) Onyankopɔn somaa ne Ba no baa asase so sɛ onipa sɛ ɔmfa ogye afɔre a edii dwuma sɛ ade a wogyina so de nnipa bɔne firi wɔn no mmɛma na ɔnka Onyankopɔn ne n’atirimpɔw ahorow ho asɛm nkyerɛ nnipa komapafo nso.

Mmom no, Baasakoro nkyerɛkyerɛ no abɛyɛ Kristoman nkyerɛkyerɛ titiriw.
“Me ne Agya no Yɛ Baako”

Dabi, ɛrentumi mma saa efisɛ Yesu kae bere nyinaa sɛ ɔyɛ Onyankopɔn Ba, ɔba fam sen Onyankopɔn na ɔhyɛ Onyankopɔn ase. Ɛnde dɛn na na Yesu kyerɛ wɔ Yohane 10:30?

5 Na Yesu kyerɛ sɛ ɔne n’Agya kura adwene ne atirimpɔw biako. Yebetumi ahu eyi wɔ Yohane 17:21, 22, faako a Yesu bɔɔ Onyankopɔn mpae sɛ n’asuafo “nyinaa nyɛ biako sɛnea wo, agya, wowɔ me mu, na mewɔ wo mu; sɛ wɔn nso nyɛ biako wɔ yɛn mu . . . sɛnea yɛyɛ biako no.” So na Yesu rebɔ mpae sɛ n’asuafo nyinaa bɛba abɛyɛ onipa biako? Dabi, na ɔrebɔ mpae sɛ wobenya adwene ne atirimpɔw biako te sɛ nea Yesu ne Onyankopɔn te no.
6 Adwene koro no ara na wɔada no adi wɔ 1 Korintofo 1:10, faako a Paulo ka sɛ Kristofo ‘nyinaa nyɛ nokoro na mpaapaemu amma wɔn mu na mmom wɔabom awie pɛyɛ adwenkoro ne nsusuwii koro mu.’ Enti, bere a Yesu kae sɛ ɔne n’Agya yɛ biako no, wankyerɛ sɛ na wɔyɛ onipa koro te sɛ nea bere a ɔkae sɛ n’asuafo bɛyɛ biako no wankyerɛ sɛ na wɔyɛ onipa koro no.

Yohane 1:14 ka kyerɛ yɛn sɛ “Asɛm no bɛyɛɛ ɔhonam, na ɔbɛtraa yɛn mu.” Kristoman kyerɛ sɛ “Asɛm” (Hela, loʹgos) yi a ɔbaa asase so sɛ Yesu Kristo no ne Ade Nyinaa so Tumfoɔ Nyankopɔn no ankasa. Nanso hyɛ no nsow sɛ wɔ King James Version no mu mpo no Yohane 1:1 ka sɛ “na Asɛm no ne Nyankopɔn na ɛwɔ hɔ.” Obi a ɔne onipa foforo wɔ hɔ no nyɛ saa onipa foforo no ara.

“M’awurade ne Me Nyankopɔn”
13, 14. Dɛn nti na Toma tumi frɛ Yesu sɛ “me Nyankopɔn,” nanso ɛnkyerɛ sɛ Yesu ne Yehowa?
13 Baasakorofo de Yohane 20:28 nso gyina nea wɔka no akyi.
