Hwɛ Jesus Christ
Sɛ yɛhwɛ Jesus Christ a, Ɔbɔ boa hɛn ma yɛdze hɛn ahyɛmudzi horow no abɔ bra na wɔakrɔn hɔn frɛ no dɛ Israel elderfo.
Ber a nna Jesus nam Capernaum a nna nyimpadodow pii etwa Noho ehyia no, ɔbaa bi a nna mfe 12 a ɔwɔ gyinabew a ɔyɛ dzen mu no tseen ne nsa kaa N’atar ano ndwow. Na amonmu hɔ ara onyaa ayarsã.
Kyerɛwnsɛm no kyerɛw dɛ Jesus, ohun “dɛ [ahoɔdzen] efi [No] mu kɔ no,” “danee no ho wɔ dɔm no mu” na “ɔhwɛe … dze hun ɔbaa no a ɔayɛ adze yi.” “Na ɔbaa no hun dɛ oennsuma no,” “ɔbɔhwee n’enyim, na ɔkãa nokwar nyina kyerɛɛ no.”
Jesus see no dɛ, “Babaa, nya ahomka: wo gyedzi agye wo, kɔ asomdwee mu.”
Jesus Christ gyee ɔbaa no nkwa. Onyaa honandua mu ayarsã, naaso ber a Jesus danee hwɛɛ no no, ɔdaa ne gyedzi edzi wɔ No mu kyerɛe na Ɔsãa n’akoma yarba. Ɔdze ɔdɔ kasae kyerɛɛ no, ɔmaa no Ne ngyetomu ho awerɛhyɛmu, na ɔdze N’asomdwee hyiraa no.
Enuanom, dɛ yekitsa asɔfodzi krɔnkrɔn no, yɛreyɛ nkwagye edwuma no. Mfe da mu no Ewuradze dze baanodzi edwuma no ato elderfo a wɔwɔ Israel no hɔn abatsir do ankasa. Yɛwɔ nkenyan asodzi fi Ewuradze hɔ—a yɛnye hɛn nkyerɛbaa reyɛ edwuma no, ɔwɔ dɛ yɛsom wɔ kwan a ɔkrɔn mbordo mu, yɛma Israel mboaboa ano no kɔdo ntsɛmntsɛm wɔ ntwamutam n’afa nyina, yɛkyekyer hɛn efiefie dɛ gyedzi na asɛmpa nsuae krɔnkrɔn mbea, na yesiesie wiadze no ma Jesus Christ ne Mbae a Otsĩa Ebien no.
Ma ndzɛmba nyina tse no, Agyenkwa no akyerɛ hɛn kwan: ohia dɛ yɛhwɛ na yɛsom Jesus Christ dɛ mbrɛ Ɔhwɛɛ na ɔsoom N’Egya no. Agyenkwa no kãa no kwan yi mu kyerɛɛ Nkɔnhyɛnyi Joseph dɛ:
“Hom nhwɛ me wɔ hom adwendwen biara mu; mma hom nngye kyim, mma hom nnsuro.
“Hom nhwɛ me mfẽ mu epirakur, nye mprɛgow ananmu wɔ me nsa nye m’anan mu; hom ndzi nokwar, hom ndzi me mbrasɛm do, na hom benya ɔsor ahenman no edzi.”
Asetsena ansaana yɛreba asaase do no Jesus bɔɔ N’Egya anohoba dɛ Ɔbɛyɛ N’Egya ne pɛ na ɔayɛ hɛn Agyenkwa na Pomfo. Ber a N’Egya bisaa dɛ, “Woana na mobɔsoma no?” Jesus yii ano dɛ:
“Egya, wo pɛ nyɛ hɔ, na enyimyam no nyɛ wodze afebɔɔ.”
No ɔnnkyebo abrabɔ nyina mu no Jesus dze dɛm anohoba no bɔɔ bra. Ahobrɛadze, botooyɛ, na ɔdɔ mu no Ɔkyerɛkyerɛɛ N’Egya ne nkyerɛkyerɛ na Ɔdze tum na etumdzi a N’Egya dze maa No no yɛɛ N’Egya n’edwuma.
Jesus dze N’akoma maa N’Egya. Ɔsee dɛ:
“Mebae … nnyɛ dɛ merebɛyɛ mankasa me pɛ, na mbom [Egya no a] ɔsomaa me no ne pɛ.”
No owuyaw mu wɔ Gethsemane no Ɔbɔɔ mpaa dɛ, “Naaso nnyɛ me pɛ a, na wodze na ɔnyɛ.”
Sɛ Ewuradze frɛ Israel elderfo dɛ “hom nhwɛ me wɔ hom adwendwen biara mu” na “hom nhwɛ epirakur no” wɔ No honandua a ɔasoɛr efi owu mu no a, ɔyɛ ɔfrɛ dɛ yefi bɔn na wiadze ho na yɛdan mbra No hɔ na yɛndɔ na yentsie No. Ɔyɛ ɔfrɛ dɛ yɛkyerɛkyerɛ Ne nkyerɛkyerɛ na yɛyɛ N’edwuma wɔ No kwan mu. Dɛm ntsi, ɔyɛ ɔfrɛ, dɛ yebenya awerɛhyɛmu wɔ No mu koraa, yegyaa hɛn pɛ mu na yɛdze hɛn akoma ma No, na ɔnam No ɔpon tum no do yɛabɛyɛ tse dɛ Ɔno.
Enuanom, sɛ yɛhwɛ Jesus Christ a Obehyira hɛn ma yɛayɛ Ne elderfo wɔ Israel—ahobrɛadze, botoo, ogyaa no ho ma, ɔdɔ hyɛ no .mã. Na yɛdze N’asɛmpa na N’Asɔr ho nhyira na dɛwdzi bɛbrɛ hɛn ebusua ebusua na hɛn enuanom mbanyin na nkyerɛbaa a wɔwɔ ntwamutam n’afa ebien no.
President Russell M. Nelson afrɛ hɛn dɛ yɛnhwɛ Jesus Christ wɔ kwan yi ara mu: “Biribiara nnyi hɔ a ɔyɛ mberɛw anaa ɔba ara wɔ yɛrebɛyɛ esuafo a yɛyɛ ndam no. Otwar dɛ hɛn enyi tsim wɔ Agyenkwa na N’asɛmpa no do. Ɔyɛ adwen mu edwuma dzen dɛ yɛbɛper na yɛahwɛ No wɔ adwendwen biara mu. Naaso sɛ yɛyɛ a, hɛn ekyingye na suro tu kɔ.”
Otsim yɛ kasafua kɛse. N’asekyerɛ nye dɛ idze betsim dzendzenndzen, ɔbɔtwe afam na oesuo mu koraa. Yɛdze hɛn enyi tsim Jesus Christ na N’asɛmpa no do ber a yɛdze hɛn ahyɛmudzi horow robɔ bra.
Sɛ yɛdze hɛn ahyɛmudzi horow no bɔ bra a, wonya nhyɛdo wɔ adzebiara a yɛkã na yɛyɛ do. Yɛbɔ ahyɛmudzi bra a dabiara gyedzi ho nyɛe a ɔnnyɛ dzen a otsim wɔ Jesus Christ do ahyɛ no mã: mpaabɔ a ofi akoma mu wɔ Ne dzin mu, yɛremee wɔ Ne asɛm mu, yɛredan akɔ No hɔ dze ennu hɛn bɔn ho, yeresie Ne mbransɛm, yeridzi sacrament na yɛresie N’ Ahomgyeda krɔnkrɔn, yɛrosɔr wɔ Ne temple krɔnkrɔn mu mber dodow a yebotum, na yɛdze N’ asɔfodzi krɔnkrɔn no ridzi dwuma asom Nyankopɔn ne mba.
Ahyɛmudzi som nyɛe yinom buei hɛn akoma na adwen wɔ Agyenkwa No ɔpon tum na Sunsum Krɔnkrɔn n’ahotsew nhyɛdo no ho. Nkakrankakra no, Agyenkwa sesã hɛn awosu ankasa, hɛn nsakyeree ba No hɔ no mu dɔ mbordo na hɛn ahyɛmudzi horow no dzɛw wɔ hɛn akoma mu.
Anohoba horow a yɛyɛ kyerɛ hɛn Ɔsor Egya no bɛyɛ ɔbotan-tsim pisi, hɛn bun mu apɛdze. Ɔsor Egya n’anohoba ma hɛn no dze enyisɔ na dɛwdzi hyɛ hɛn mã. Hɛn ahyɛmudzi no gyae dɛ wɔreyɛ mbra a yedzi do na wɔbɛyɛ ahomka fapem a wokenyan na wɔkyerɛ hɛn kwan ma yɛdze hɛn adwen tsim Jesus Christ do.
Ɔsom nyɛe yinom wɔ hɔ ma hɛn nyina, mbofra nye mpanyin. Hom mberantsɛ a hom kitsa Aaronic Asɔfodzi krɔnkrɔn no, biribiara a maakã no anafua yi fa hom ho. Meda Nyankopɔn ase ma hom. Hom yɛ ayɛdze horow na ahyɛmudzi krɔnkrɔn a ɔwɔ hɔ ma Latter-day Saintfo ɔpepe dapɛn biara. Sɛ hom siesie, hom hyira, anaa wɔdze sacrament no kɔ aprɔw; hom som; hom numa wɔ temple; hom to nsa frɛ nyɛnko bi ba dwumadzi mu; anaa hom gye hom quorumba a, hom reyɛ nkwagye edwuma no. Hom so botum ahwɛ Jesus Christ na hom dze hom ahyɛmudzi no abɔ bra dabiara. Mobɔ hom anohoba dɛ sɛ hom yɛ a, hom bɛyɛ Ewuradze no nkowaa awerɛhyɛmufo seisei na, wɔ da ɔreba mu no, elderfo ekunyin wɔ Israel.
Enuanom, minyim dɛ iyi nyina bɛyɛ dɛ ma ɔyɛ dzen. Naaso meserɛ hom nkaa Agyenkwa ne nsɛm yinom: “Ɔnnka mo nko, osiandɛ Egya no wɔ me nkyɛn.” Dɛmara na ɔtse dze ma hɛn. Ɔnnka hɛn nko. Ewuradze Jesus Christ na hɛn Ɔsor Egya dɔ hɛn, na Wɔwɔ hɛn nkyɛn. Osiandɛ Jesus hwɛɛ N’Egya na owiei werdam afɔrbɔ kɛse no ntsi yebotum dze awerɛhyɛmu ahwɛ Jesus Christ dɛ Obotum aboa hɛn.
Hɛn mu biara nndzi mu. Ɔtɔfabi a yenntu mpon wɔ sunsum mu. Biribi twe hɛn adwen anaa yenya abagura. Yɛyɛ mfomdo. Naaso sɛ yɛdze nnuho akoma hwɛ Jesus Christ a, Obepegya hɛn, ɔaatsew hɛn efi bɔn ho, ɔdze hɛn bɔn akyɛ hɛn, na ɔaasa hɛn akoma yarba. Ɔwɔ abotar na ayamuyie; No ɔpon ho ɔdɔ no nnyi ewiei da na ɔmmbɔ adze da. Ɔbɔ boa hɛn ma yɛdze hɛn ahyɛmudzi no abɔ bra na yɛakrɔn hɛn ɔfrɛ mu dɛ Israel elderfo.
Na Egya no dze ndzɛmba nyina yebehia dze bɛyɛ No botae behyira hɛn: “ndzɛmba … dza ɔwɔ sor nye asaase do nyina, nkwa nye kan, Sunsum nye tum no a, Egya no ne pɛ do dze edua ne Jesus Christ Ba, no do no.”
Sɛ kan na tum krɔnkrɔn hɛn hɛn abrabɔ mu a, ndzɛmba nwanwa na osi:
Odzi Kan, yetum hu adze! Ɔnam nyikyerɛ do yɛhyɛ ase hu dɛ mbrɛ Jesus hun ɔbaa no: traa enyi do kɔr akoma mu no. Sɛ yehu dɛ mbrɛ Jesus hu a, Ohyira hɛn ma yɛdze No dɔ dɔ hɔn a yɛsom hɔn no. Yɛdze No mboa no, hɔn a yɛsom hɔn no bohu Agyenkwa no na wɔatse No dɔ nkã.
Otsĩa Ebien, yɛwɔ asɔfodzi tum! Yɛwɔ etumdzi na tum dɛ yedzi dwuma wɔ Jesus Christ ne dzin mu dze “hyira, kyerɛ kwan, bɔ ban, hyɛ dzen, na yɛsã binom yarba na yɛdze anwanwadze brɛ hɔn a [yɛ] dɔ hɔn na yesie [hɛn] awar na ebusua ebusua dwudwoodwo.”

Enuanom, ana siantsir bi nnyi hɔ mma hɛn dɛ yedzi dɛw? Yɛwɔ! Yekitsa Nyankopɔn n’asɔfodzi krɔnkrɔn no.
