According to Paul, just as the law came to increase trespass, so sin came to increase
Akọwa Nkọwa
Paul in his letter to the Romans 5:20 states that "Now the law came in to increase the trespass, but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more." Here, Paul explains that just as the law made the knowledge of sin greater, the sin increased in response. However, despite the increase in sin, grace, which is the undeserved love and favor of God, abounds all the more. In other words, the more sin there is, the more God's grace is able to overcome it. Therefore, the answer is "grace".

Akọwa Nkọwa
In Romans, Christians are admonished to put on the Lord Jesus Christ and not to make provision for the flesh. This means that Christians should embrace the teachings of Jesus Christ and let Him be their guide in their everyday life. They should not indulge in sinful desires that are of the flesh, but rather, live a life that is pleasing to God. Making provision for the flesh means giving in to the desires and temptations of the flesh, which can lead to sin and ultimately, separation from God. Therefore, Christians are encouraged to walk in the spirit and not in the flesh, and to follow the example of Jesus Christ in all things.

The sin of Manasseh for which the LORD sent bands of the Chaldeans, Syrians, Moabites and Ammonites to destroy Judah was "the shedding of innocent blood." Manasseh was a king of Judah who practiced idolatry and even sacrificed his own sons to false gods. He shed the blood of the innocent by sacrificing children in the fire, and also by killing many people who opposed him. As a result, God's judgment fell on Judah and Manasseh, and they were defeated by their enemies.

Rahab's reward for hiding the messengers sent by Joshua to spy out the city of Jericho was that she and her household were spared when the city was conquered and destroyed by the Israelites. As part of the agreement, the Israelite army instructed her to tie a scarlet cord in her window to mark her house, so that they would know to spare it. Rahab's faith and actions showed that she had aligned herself with the God of Israel and demonstrated her belief in the spies' message, leading to her and her family's salvation.

Akọwa Nkọwa
God did not lead the Israelites by the way of the land of the Philistines although that was near because He did not want them to see war and return to Egypt. The Israelites had just left Egypt and were on their way to the Promised Land. The way of the land of the Philistines was the shorter route, but it was also the more dangerous route because of the presence of the Philistines who were known for their military might. God knew that if the Israelites encountered war at this early stage, they might lose heart and return to Egypt. Therefore, He led them by a longer route through the wilderness, where they could learn and grow stronger before facing the challenges ahead.

According to Amos, God decided to raise up a nation that would fight and oppress Israel because the people rejected Him and sold the righteous for silver. In the book of Amos, God expresses His displeasure at Israel's mistreatment of the poor and needy and their failure to follow His commandments. He accuses the people of selling the righteous for silver and rejecting Him. As a result, God declares that He will raise up a nation against them, which will oppress and afflict them. This nation is later identified as Assyria, which eventually conquered and destroyed Israel.

Jesus used this parable to illustrate the love and compassion of God, who seeks out and rejoices over even one lost sinner who repents and turns back to Him.

The medium brought up the spirit of Samuel, who prophesied Saul's downfall and the transfer of his kingdom to David.

The statement "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations" was made by God during the call of Prophet Jeremiah. In this statement, God is telling Jeremiah that he had already set him apart for a special purpose even before he was born, and that purpose was to be a prophet to the nations. This shows that God has a plan for every individual, and he can call and equip anyone he chooses to fulfill his purpose.

He compared the situation to a person who prefers darkness because they do not want their evil deeds exposed by the light. Therefore, Jesus is saying that people who do wrong things prefer to hide their actions, and avoid the light that might reveal them. They choose to live in the darkness of their wrongdoing because they do not want to be exposed by the light of truth.

This policy was unpopular and oppressive, leading to resentment among the people and the eventual split of the kingdom after his death. Therefore, the use of forced labor can be seen as an unwise decision by King Solomon.

The LORD told Moses that He would rain bread from heaven for the people of Israel to eat, but He instructed them to gather just enough for one day.

As a result, the bread became full of worms and stank. This showed that they lacked faith in God's provision and His ability to provide for them daily. Therefore, the answer is obedience and faith.
