⁸ Ekome ji akɛ, be ni atee Yesu shi lɛ, mɛi pii na lɛ kɛ amɛhiŋmɛi. (1 Kor. 15:5-7) Klɛŋklɛŋ mɔ ni Paulo tsĩ etã akɛ ena Yesu be ni atee lɛ shi lɛ ji, bɔfo Petro (Kefa). Yesu kaselɔi komɛi hu wie akɛ, be ni atee Yesu shi lɛ, Petro na lɛ. (Luka 24:33, 34) Mɛi ni ji enyɔ ni Paulo kɛɛ amɛna Yesu ji, “Mɛi Nyɔŋma Kɛ Enyɔ lɛ,” loo bɔfoi lɛ. Kɛkɛ ni ewie akɛ, Kristo “jie ehe kpo etsɔɔ nyɛmimɛi ni fa fe 500 yɛ be kome mli,” ni eeenyɛ efee akɛ, enɛ ji be ni Yesu kɛ amɛ kpe yɛ Galilea ni abɔ he amaniɛ yɛ Mateo 28:16-20 lɛ.

10. Be ni Paulo na faŋŋ akɛ atee Yesu shi lɛ, mɛni no tsirɛ lɛ ni efee?

¹⁰ Paulo wa Kristofoi lɛ ayi. Shi be ni ebana faŋŋ akɛ atee Yesu shi lɛ, efee bɔ fɛɛ bɔ ni ebaanyɛ koni eye ebua mɛi ni amɛhe anɔkwa sane nɛɛ amɛye, ni ekã shi faŋŋ akɛ, mɛi komɛi ni le bɔ ni eba ejeŋ ehã tsutsu ko lɛ bo lɛ  toi waa.

Ni ani no hãaa hemɔkɛyeli ni oyɔɔ akɛ wɔsɛɛ lɛ abaatee gbohii lɛ ashi lɛ mli awa?

11. Mɛni eeenyɛ efee akɛ no hewɔ nyɛmimɛi komɛi ni yɔɔ Korinto lɛ ná susumɔi ni ejaaa yɛ gbohiiashitee lɛ he?

¹¹ No mli lɛ Kristofoi komɛi ni yɔɔ Korinto lɛ hiɛ susumɔi ni ejaaa yɛ gbohiiashitee lɛ he, ni amɛteŋ mɛi komɛi po kɛɛ “gbohiiashitee ko bɛ.” Mɛni hã eba lɛ nakai?

Ni kɛ́ akɛ amɛhe eshai ekeko amɛ lɛ, belɛ amɛbɛ hiɛnɔkamɔ ko kwraa.​—1 Kor. 15:13-19; Heb. 9:12, 14.

12. Yɛ nɔ ni awie yɛ 1 Petro 3:18, 22 lɛ naa lɛ, mɛni hã esoro Yesu shitee lɛ kwraa yɛ gbohiiashitei ni tsɔ enɔ lɛ hiɛ lɛ ahe?

13. Mɛɛ gbɛ nɔ Paulo kɛ Adam to Yesu he?

¹³ Te feɔ tɛŋŋ ni gbɔmɔ kome gbele hãa mɛi akpekpei abɔ náa wala? Paulo hã sanebimɔ nɛɛ hetoo, ni hetoo ni ehã lɛ mli kã shi faŋŋ. Ekɛ Adam to Kristo he ni ewie yɛ Adam he akɛ: “Gbele tsɔ gbɔmɔ nɔ kɛba.” Be ni Adam fee esha lɛ, ekɛ gbele ba lɛ kɛ eseshibii fɛɛ anɔ. Kɛbashi ŋmɛnɛ lɛ, wɔmiina nibii gbohii ni ejɛ etoigbele lɛ mli kɛba lɛ. Shi Paulo wie yɛ Yesu he akɛ: “Gbohiiashitee hu baatsɔ gbɔmɔ nɔ kɛba.” Akɛni Nyɔŋmɔ tee e-Bi lɛ shi hewɔ lɛ, wɔná hiɛnɔkamɔ. Kɛkɛ ni Paulo kɛshi sɛɛ akɛ: “Ejaakɛ bɔ ni Adam mli ni mɛi fɛɛ gboiɔ yɛ lɛ, nakai nɔŋŋ hu Kristo lɛ mli abaahã mɛi fɛɛ ahiɛ akãmɔ yɛ.”​—1 Kor. 15:21, 22.

14. Ani abaatee Adam shi? Tsɔɔmɔ mli.

¹⁴ Be ni Paulo wie akɛ “Adam mli ni mɛi fɛɛ gboiɔ yɛ” lɛ, no mli lɛ te etsɔɔ tɛŋŋ? No mli lɛ, eetsɔɔ akɛ Adam seshibii fɛɛ ná esha kɛ emuu ni ayeee akɛ gboshinii kɛjɛ Adam dɛŋ, ni no hewɔ lɛ, amɛbaagboi. (Rom. 5:12) Adam fataaa mɛi ni ‘abaahã amɛhiɛ akãmɔ’ lɛ ahe, ejaakɛ efataaa mɛi ni Kristo bagbo ehã lɛ ahe. Mɛni hewɔ? Ejaakɛ be ni efee esha lɛ, no mli lɛ, eye emuu. No hewɔ lɛ, eje gbɛ waa ni efee esha lɛ. Esane lɛ tamɔ mɛi ni  “gbɔmɔ Bi lɛ” baakojo amɛ akɛ abotiai lɛ; amɛ fɛɛ “amɛbaaya naanɔ hiɛkpatamɔ mli.”​—Mat. 25:31-33, 46; Heb. 5:9.

15. Namɛi fata “mɛi fɛɛ” lɛ ni Paulo kɛɛ ‘abaahã amɛhiɛ akãmɔ lɛ’ ahe?

¹⁵ Paulo wie hu akɛ, “Kristo lɛ mli abaahã mɛi fɛɛ ahiɛ akãmɔ yɛ.” (1 Kor. 15:22) Mɛni enɛ hu tsɔɔ? Mɛi ni afɔ amɛ mu lɛ fata “mɛi fɛɛ” lɛ ni abaatee amɛ shi lɛ ahe, ni akɛni Kristofoi ni yɔɔ Korinto lɛ, ni ji, mɛi ni Paulo ŋma wolo nɛɛ eyahã lɛ ji mɛi ni afɔ amɛ mu, ni amɛyɛ hiɛnɔkamɔ akɛ kɛ́ atee amɛ shi lɛ amɛbaaya ŋwɛi hewɔ lɛ, amɛ hu amɛfata he. Paulo wie yɛ amɛhe akɛ, ‘afee amɛ krɔŋkrɔŋ yɛ Kristo Yesu mli, ni atsɛ amɛ koni amɛbafee mɛi krɔŋkrɔŋi.’ No sɛɛ lɛ, ewie “mɛi ni egboi yɛ Kristo mli lɛ” hu ahe. (1 Kor. 1:2; 15:18; 2 Kor. 5:17) Yɛ wolo kroko ni Paulo ŋma lɛ mli lɛ, ewie akɛ, ‘Mɛi ni kɛ Yesu efee ekome yɛ gbele ni tamɔ enɔ lɛ mli lɛ kɛ lɛ baafee ekome yɛ shitee ni tamɔ enɔ lɛ mli hu.’ (Rom. 6:3-5) Atee Yesu shi kɛ mumɔŋ gbɔmɔtso, ni etee ŋwɛi. No hewɔ lɛ, nakai nɔŋŋ ebaaba lɛ yɛ mɛi fɛɛ “ni kɛ Kristo efee ekome,” ni ji mɛi fɛɛ ni afɔ amɛ mu lɛ agbɛfaŋ.

16. Mɛni tsɛ ni Paulo tsɛ Yesu akɛ “klɛŋklɛŋ yibii” lɛ tsɔɔ?

¹⁶ Paulo wie akɛ, atee Kristo shi “akɛ mɛi ni egboi lɛ ateŋ klɛŋklɛŋ yibii.” Shi wɔle akɛ, Yesu jeee klɛŋklɛŋ mɔ ni atee lɛ shi yɛ shikpɔŋ lɛ nɔ. Anɔkwa, be ni atee Yesu shi lɛ, no mli lɛ, atee Lazaro kɛ mɛi krokomɛi shi kɛba wala mli yɛ shikpɔŋ lɛ nɔ momo. Kɛ́ nakai ni lɛ, mɛni hewɔ Paulo tsɛ Yesu akɛ “mɛi ni egboi lɛ ateŋ klɛŋklɛŋ yibii” lɛ? Etsɛ lɛ nakai ejaakɛ, lɛ ji klɛŋklɛŋ mɔ ni atee lɛ shi kɛ mumɔŋ gbɔmɔtso, ni ahã lɛ naanɔ wala. Yɛ gbɛ ko nɔ lɛ, etamɔ klɛŋklɛŋ yibii ni Israelbii lɛ kpaa ni amɛkɛhãa Nyɔŋmɔ lɛ.

17. Mɛɛ be “mɛi ni kɛ Kristo efee ekome lɛ” agbohiiashitee lɛ je shishi?

¹⁷ Be ni Paulo ŋma wolo lɛ eyahã Korintobii lɛ, no mli lɛ be ni abaatee “mɛi ni kɛ Kristo efee ekome lɛ” shi kɛya ŋwɛi lɛ shɛko. Nɔ ko ni Paulo wie lɛ hãa wɔnaa nakai. Ewie akɛ: “Mɔ fɛɛ mɔ yɛ lɛ diɛŋtsɛ egbɛhe ni sa: Kristo ji klɛŋklɛŋ yibii lɛ, no sɛɛ lɛ, mɛi ni ji Kristo lɛ nii lɛ, yɛ be ni eba lɛ mli.” (1 Kor. 15:23; 1 Tes. 4:15, 16) Nɔ ni Paulo wie nɛɛ hãa wɔnaa akɛ, ‘be ni Kristo eba lɛ’ mli abaatee bɔfoi lɛ kɛ mɛi krokomɛi ni akɛ mumɔ efɔ amɛ mu lɛ shi kɛya ŋwɛi ni amɛkɛ Yesu afee ekome yɛ shitee ni tamɔ enɔ lɛ mli, ni nakai be lɛ mli wɔyɔɔ ŋmɛnɛ lɛ.

¹⁸ Ni Kristofoi anɔkwafoi pii ni bɛ ŋwɛi hiɛnɔkamɔ lɛ hu? Ani abaatee amɛ hu shi? Hɛɛ. Biblia lɛ kɛɔ akɛ, Paulo kɛ mɛi krokomɛi ni baaya ŋwɛi lɛ anine baashɛ “klɛŋklɛŋ shitee kɛmiijɛ gbohii ateŋ lɛ nɔ.” (Fip. 3:11) Enɛ tsɔɔ akɛ shitee kroko yɛ, aloo jeee nakai?
