Ko e Fekumi Ki he ʻEikí

Siʻoku kāinga ʻofeina, ʻoku ou fiefia ke tuʻu atu ʻi muʻá ni ʻi heʻetau kau fakataha ki he konifelenisi lahí ni. Kuo hoko ko ha tāpuaki mahuʻinga kiate au mo Sisitā Tekisela, homa fāmilí, pea kiate au ke fakafanongo ki he ngaahi lea ʻo e potó, faleʻí, fakafiemālié mo e fakatokanga kuo fai ʻi he ngaahi konifelenisi lahí he ngaahi taʻu lahi kuo maliu atú.

ʻI he faʻahitaʻu makehe ko ʻeni ʻo e taʻú, tautautefito ki he Sāpate Toetuʻú, ʻoku ou fakakaukau ai ki he mahuʻinga ʻo e ngaahi akonaki ʻa e Fakamoʻuí pea mo ʻEne sīpinga ʻo e angaʻofá mo e ʻofá ʻi heʻeku moʻuí.

ʻE hanga ʻe ha mahino loloto ange kia Sīsū Kalaisi, ʻo ʻomi ha ʻamanaki lelei lahi ange ki he kahaʻú, pea neongo ʻetau ngaahi tōnounoú, ka te tau maʻu ha loto falala lahi ange ke ikunaʻi ʻetau ngaahi taumuʻa māʻoniʻoní. ʻE ʻomi foki ai ha holi lahi ange ke tokoniʻi hotau kāingá.

Naʻe folofola ʻa e ʻEikí, “[Fekumi] kiate au ʻi he fakakaukau kotoa pē; ʻoua ʻe tālaʻa, ʻoua ʻe manavahē.”¹ Ko e fekumi ki he ʻEikí pea mo hono ongoʻi ʻa ʻEne ʻi aí, ko ha ngāue fakaʻaho ia ke fai, pea ko ha ngāue mahuʻinga.

Kāinga, ʻoku tau maʻu ʻo lahi ange ʻi he ʻahó ni ʻi ha toe taimi, ha ngaahi faingamālie makehe mo e ngaahi maʻuʻanga tokoni ke fakaloloto ʻetau mahino kau ki he ngaahi akonaki ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí pea mo ʻEne Fakaleleí. ʻE tokoni hono fakaʻaongaʻi totonu ʻa e ngaahi maʻuʻanga tokoni ko ʻení ke tau maʻu ai ha moʻui ʻoku mahutafea pea fonu fiefia.

ʻI he talanoa fakatātā ʻa e Fakamoʻuí kau ki he vainé mo e ngaahi vaʻá, naʻá Ne folofola: “Nofo ʻiate au, mo au ʻiate kimoutolu. Hangē ʻoku ʻikai faʻa fua ʻa e vaʻá ʻiate ia pē, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai nofo ʻi he vainé; pea ʻe pehē foki ʻa kimoutolu, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te mou nofo ʻiate au.”²

Ko e lahi ange ʻetau mahino ki he fatongia fakaofo ʻo Sīsū Kalaisi ʻi heʻetau moʻuí, ko e lahi ange ia ʻetau mahino ki heʻetau taumuʻa ʻi he matelié ni, ʻa ia ko ʻetau maʻu ʻa e fiefiá. Ka ʻoku ʻikai taʻofi kitautolu ʻe he fiefia ko iá mei hono aʻusia e ngaahi ʻahiʻahí mo e faingataʻá, ʻo aʻu pē ki ha niʻihi ʻoku fuʻu lahi mo taulōfuʻu pea iku ai ke tau fakakaukau he ʻikai malava ke maʻu ha fiefia ia ʻi he ngaahi tūkunga peheé.

ʻOku ou ʻilo mei he ngaahi meʻa fakatāutaha kuó u aʻusiá ʻe lava ke hoko atu e fiefiá ʻi he moʻui angatonú mo e tauhi maʻu kia Kalaisí neongo e ngaahi faingataʻa ʻoku tau angamaheni ki ai ʻi he moʻui fakamatelié. Ko hono moʻoní, ʻoku faʻa hanga ʻe he ngaahi faingataʻá ni ʻo fakalahi, siviʻi mo tataki kitautolu ki ha mahino lahi ange fekauʻaki mo e taumuʻa ʻo ʻetau moʻui fakamatelié pea mo e Fakalelei ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí. Ka ko e fiefia kakató ʻe toki lava pē ke maʻu ʻia Sīsū Kalaisi.³

Naʻá Ne folofola, “Ko au ko e vainé, ko e ngaahi vaʻá ʻa kimoutolu: Ko ia ʻoku nofo ʻiate aú, mo au ʻiate iá, ko ia ia ʻe fua lahí: ka māvae mo au, ʻe ʻikai te mou faʻa fai ha meʻa.”⁴

ʻOku ou tui ʻi heʻetau fakaloloto ʻa ʻetau mahino ki he Fakamoʻuí, te tau maʻu ha holi lahi ange ke moʻui fiefia pea mo ha tui ʻe lava ke maʻu e fiefiá. Ko hono olá, te tau malava ke hanganaki loto vēkeveke ange ki he moʻuí pea ki hono tauhi e ngaahi fekau ʻa e ʻOtuá he ʻaho kotoa, neongo e ngaahi tūkunga faingataʻá.

ʻOua muʻa naʻa tuku ki ʻapongipongi e meʻa te tau lava ʻo fai he ʻaho ní. Ko e taimi ʻeni ke tau haʻu ai kia Kalaisí he “kapau te [tau] tui kiate [Ia], te [tau] ngāue lolotonga ʻoku kei ui ʻa e taimí ko e ʻahó ni.”⁵

ʻOku totonu ke tau fakakaukau ke fakakau mai ki heʻetau ngaahi fengāueʻaki fakaʻahó, e ngaahi akonaki ʻa Kalaisí. ʻE hanga ʻe he fanga kiʻi ngāue iiki mo faingaofua fakaʻahó ʻo:

1. Fakaloloto ʻetau mahino ki hono mahuʻinga ʻo e ʻEikí ʻi heʻetau moʻuí, pea

2. Tokoniʻi kitautolu ke vahevahe ʻetau mahinó ki he toʻu tangata kei tupu haké, ke nau ongoʻi moʻoni e ʻofa ʻa e Tamai Hēvaní mo Hono ʻAlo ko Sīsū Kalaisí, ʻi heʻenau mamata ki heʻetau sīpinga ʻi hono moʻui fakamātoato ʻaki e ongoongoleleí.

Ko e hā leva ha niʻihi ʻo e ngaahi tōʻonga faingofua ʻi he kuonga fakaonopooni ko ʻení ʻe hoko ko ha fakanonga ki hotau laumālié ʻi hono fakamālohia ʻetau fakamoʻoni kia Sīsū Kalaisi mo Hono misioná?
