Kumabo is the word used in Burkina Faso for what Jesus did for us at Calvary. Kumabo means to take the head out. Africans who were on their way to the coast to go into slavery were chained by the neck to the person in front and behind them. If someone cared enough to pay to redeem them, they were released from the neck iron and freed. Kumabo, to take the neck out, to redeem. Jesus paid for our redemption with His life (K. Conkle).
Brothers and sisters: To this day, whenever Moses is read, a veil lies over the hearts of the children of Israel,
but whenever a person turns to the Lord the veil is removed.
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
All of us, gazing with unveiled face on the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, as from the Lord who is the Spirit.
Therefore, since we have this ministry through the mercy shown us, we are not discouraged.
And even though our gospel is veiled, it is veiled for those who are perishing,
in whose case the god of this age has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, so that they may not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
For we do not preach ourselves but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your slaves for the sake of Jesus.
For God who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," has shone in our hearts to bring to light the knowledge of the glory of God on the face of (Jesus) Christ.
