Sɛ nhwɛso no, bɔ mmɔden susuw ɔsomafo Paulo nsɛm a ɛwɔ 2 Korintofo 7:1 no ho: “Afei sɛ yɛwɔ saa bɔhyɛ yi nti, adɔfo, momma yɛnhohoro yɛn ho mfi ɔhonam ne honhom mu fi nyinaa mu, na yɛawie yɛn ahotew Onyankopɔn suro mu.” Nya nsɛm yi mu ntease.

Paulo ahyɛde a ɛne sɛ ‘yɛnhohoro yɛn ho mfi efĩ ho’ no wɔ tumi kɛse nnɛ! Sɛ ade a ɛbɛkanyan yɛn ma yɛayɛ saa no, Onyankopɔn hyɛ bɔ sɛ ‘obegye yɛn,’ kyerɛ sɛ ɔbɛbɔ yɛn ho ban. Ebia wubebisa wo ho sɛ, ‘So me ne no benya abusuabɔ a emu yɛ den—te sɛ nea ɛda agya bi ne ne babarima anaa ne babea ntam no?’ So adwene a ɛne sɛ Onyankopɔn a ɔwɔ ɔdɔ na onim nyansa no ‘begye’ yɛn anaa ɔbɛdɔ yɛn no nhyɛ nkuran?

Nanso hyɛ no nsow: Gye sɛ ‘wotwe wo ho fi afide ho’ ansa na woatumi ne Onyankopɔn anya abusuabɔ a emu yɛ den. Bisa wo ho sɛ: ‘So tawa a ne nom ka obi hɔ no nka ‘afide’ a Onyankopɔn kasa tia no ho? So nom a mɛnom no bɛyɛ ɔhonam ho fĩ a migu, a ɛbɛma mede me ho ato akwahosan ho asiane ahorow mu? Esiane sɛ Yehowa yɛ Onyankopɔn a ne ho tew anaa ɔyɛ “kronkron” nti, so n’ani bɛsɔ hyɛ a mɛhyɛ da agu me ho fĩ wɔ saa kwan yi so anaa?’ (1 Petro 1:15, 16) Hyɛ no nsow sɛ Paulo bɔ ‘obi ho fĩ a obegu wɔ honhom mu,’ anaa nea n’adwene tɔ kɔ so ho kɔkɔ.

Ɛhe na mama tawanom a aka me hɔ no kwan ma asɛe m’asetra akodu?’ Ebia nsɛmmisa a ɛhaw adwene yi a wubesusuw ho no bɛma woanya akokoduru a wode begyae!

Ansa na wɔrebehu nokware no, na Lin abusua no adua betel nnua 1,300 wɔ wɔn asase so. Ɛwom sɛ na ebegye mfe anum ansa na nnua no asow de, nanso sɛ enya sow a, Lin abusua no betumi ahwɛ kwan sɛ wobenya $77,000 (U.S.) afe biara.

(2 Korintofo 7:1) Dɛn na na wɔbɛyɛ?

Bere a n’ahonim haw no no, Owura Lin sii gyinae sɛ obegyae adesua no. Bere koro no ara mu no, Owurayere Lin tɔn betel aba a onya fii wɔn nnua dedaw no bi so no, na onyaa mfaso bɛboro $3,000 (U.S.).
