Nea edi kan no, Yesu ka kyerɛɛ n’akyidifo sɛ wɔnkae ne wuo na ɛnyɛ ne wusɔreɛ. Ɔsomafo Paulo frɛɛ saa afahyɛ no “Awurade anwummeduane.”

“Mo ne wɔn a wɔnnye nnie nntwe kɔndua korɔ.”
Ebia ebinom bɛka sɛ amanne ahorow bi a na wɔyɛ no Easter bere mu no nyɛ bɔne, efisɛ ɛmaa “abosonsomfo” bɛtee Yesu wusɔre no ase. Sɛ Paulo te ase saa bere no a, anka ɔremma kwan da! Bere a Paulo tutuu akwan wɔ Roma Ahemman no nyinaa mu no, ɔhunuu abosonsomfo afahyɛ ahorow, nanso, wamfa ne ho anhyɛ emu biara mu ansusuw sɛ ɛno bɛma wɔate Yesu ho nsɛm ase yiye. Mmom no, ɔbɔɔ Kristofo no kɔkɔ sɛ: “Mo ne wɔn a wɔnnye nnie nntwe kɔndua korɔ. Na twaka bɛn na tenenee ne amumuyɔ wɔ? Anaasɛ ayɔnkofa bɛn na hann ne sum wɔ? Enti momfiri wɔn mu, na monte mo ho,’ Yehowa na ɔseɛ, ‘na mommfa mo nsa nnka deɛ ɛho nteɛ.’”
