Onyankopɔn Asɛm nka kyakyatow ho asɛm nkɔ akyiri, nanso ɛka nsɛm pii a ɛkyerɛ sɛ kyakyatow biara ne Bible nnyinasosɛm ahorow nhyia.a Sɛ nhwɛso no, wogye tom kɛse sɛ kyakyatow de anibere ba. Saa nokwasɛm no nkutoo yɛ asɛntitiriw a ehia sɛ Kristofo susuw ho, efisɛ Bible ka sɛ “aniberefo” rennya Onyankopɔn Ahenni, na wɔde anibere toto abosonsom ho.—1 Korintofo 6:9, 10; Kolosefo 3:5.

Kyakyato nso ma obi nya ahopɛ ne akansi honhom, ne ɔpɛ a emu yɛ den sɛ obedi nkonim. Ɔsomafo Paulo bɔɔ kɔkɔ wɔ nneɛma a ɛtete saa ho bere a ɔkyerɛwee sɛ: “Mommma yɛmmpɛ anuonyanhunu nnyiyi yɛn ho abufuw nntentan yɛn ho.” (Galatifo 5:26) Afei nso, kyakyato ma ebinom nya gyidihunu de wɔn ho to siade so. Wɔn a wɔtow kyakya nya gyidihunu ahorow nyinaa bi, na wɔhwɛ kwan sɛ siade bɛma wɔn ti ayɛ yiye. Ɛkae yɛn Israelfo a wɔanni nokware a na ‘wɔtow pon ma siade bosom na wɔhyɛ mfrasa nkuruwa amaama ma hyɛbea bosom no.’—Yesaia 65:11.

Ɛwom, ebetumi aba sɛ obi a ɔde sika ketewaa bi to nkyia remmu ne ho sɛ ɔyɛ oniberefo, ɔhopɛfo, obi a ɔpɛ akansi, anaasɛ okura gyidihunu. Nanso, nkɛntɛnso bɛn na ne kyakyato no betumi anya wɔ nea ɔne no reto no so? Wɔn a kyakyatow aka wɔn hɔ no de nkyiato nketenkete ‘sɛ nea wɔde redi agoru’ na efii ase. (Luka 16:10) Anigyede bi a na ɛte sɛ nea asɛm biara nni ho no bɛdanee adebɔne koraa maa wɔn.

Ɛte saa titiriw wɔ mmofra fam. Mmofra pii ani agye nkyia ketewaa bi a wɔto di ho, na ɛhyɛ wɔn nkuran ma wɔde sika akɛse to nkyia. (1 Timoteo 6:10) Nhwehwɛmu bi a Arizona Bagua a Ɛhwɛ Kyakyatow Ho Nsɛm so wɔ United States de bere tenten yɛe no sii so dua sɛ wɔn a kyakyatow aka wɔn hɔ no mu pii fii ase wɔn mmofraberem “denam nkyia nketenkete a wɔne wɔn nnamfo anaa wɔn abusuafo toe wɔ agumadi anaa sopaabɔ mu so.” Amanneɛbɔ foforo ka sɛ “mmofra fi kyakyatow ase wɔ fie, na ɛtaa yɛ sopaa a wɔne wɔn abusuafo ne wɔn nnamfonom bɔ.” Amanneɛbɔ no de ka ho sɛ “mmofra a wɔtow kyakya ɔha mu aduasa fii ase yɛɛ saa ansa na wɔredi mfirihyia dubiako.” Sɛnea nhwehwɛmu bi a wɔyɛe a wɔtoo din Why Do People Gamble Too Much—Pathological and Problem Gambling kyerɛ no, mmofra a wɔadu mpanyin afe so a wɔtow kyakya no pii nam nsɛmmɔnedi anaa ɔbrasɛe so na enya sika a wɔde tow no.
