Kuo Fanauʻi Kiate Kitautolu ha Tamasiʻi

Naʻe fakahaaʻi kia ʻĀtama, ʻa e ʻuluaki tangatá, ko e Fakamoʻuí ʻa e ʻAlo pē Taha Naʻe Fakatupu ʻo e ʻOtuá (vakai, Mōsese 5:7, 9; 6:52, 57, 59, 62). Talu mei ai mo e fakamoʻoni ʻa e kau palōfita māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē ʻo kau ki he hāʻele mai ʻa e ʻAlo ʻo e ʻOtuá ʻi he kakanó ke huhuʻi Hono kakaí (vakai, Ngāue 10:43; Sēkope 4:4).

ʻI ʻIsileli he kuonga muʻá, naʻe fakateunga e kau taulaʻeikí mo e haʻa tuʻí ʻaki ha pulupulu pea nau āfei ʻa e fakaʻilonga ʻo honau lakangá ʻi honau umá (vakai, ʻĪsaia 22:21–22). Naʻe hāʻele mai ʻa Sīsū Kalaisi, ko e ʻAlo ʻo e ʻOtuá, “[ko e taha ʻokú ne maʻu ʻa e mafai]” (Mātiu 7:29). Pea te Ne pule ko e Tuʻi ʻo e ngaahi tuʻi mo e ʻEiki ʻo e ngaahi ʻeikí he lolotonga ʻo e Nofotuʻi, ʻa ia ʻe “pule [ai] ʻa ia ʻoku ʻaʻana ʻa e totonu ke pulé” (T&F 58:22; vakai foki, Ngaahi Tefito ʻo e Tuí 1:10).

ʻOku maʻu ʻa e foʻi lea fakaofó mei he foʻi lea faka-Hepelū ki he “maná,” ʻo fokotuʻu mai ai ʻa e ʻaloʻi fakaofo ʻo e Mīsaiá mo e ngaahi mana te Ne fakahoko lolotonga ʻEne moʻuí. Ko e foʻi lea akonakí ʻoku fekauʻaki ia mo e ngaahi fekau mo e ngaahi akonaki ʻe ʻomi ʻe he Mīsaiá ke ne tataki atu ʻetau toe foki ki he Tamai Hēvaní. Hangē ko e fakamatala ʻa e palōfita ko Sēkopé ʻi he Tohi ʻa Molomoná, “ ʻOku akonaki [ʻa e ʻEikí] ʻi he poto, pea ʻi he fakamaau totonu, pea ʻi he ʻaloʻofa lahi, ki he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē kuó ne fakatupú” (Sēkope 4:10).

“[Tui kia Sīsū Kalaisi, ko e ʻAlo ʻo e ʻOtuá, ko e [tokotaha] maʻongoʻonga taha ʻo e moʻuí ni mo ʻitāniti. Tui naʻe ʻi muʻa ʻene moʻui taʻe-mafakatatauá ki muʻa he taimi ne teʻeki faʻu ai ʻa e māmaní. Tui ko ia ʻa e Tupuʻanga ʻo e māmani ʻoku tau nofo aí. Tui ko e Sihova ia ʻo e Fuakava Motuʻá, ko e Mīsaia ʻo e Fuakava Foʻoú, naʻe pekia pea toe tuʻu, … pea ʻoku moʻui, ko e ʻAlo moʻui ʻo e ʻOtua moʻuí, ko hotau Fakamoʻui mo hotau Huhuʻi.]”

“[Ko Sihová, ʻa ia ko Sīsū Kalaisi ko e ʻAlo ʻo ʻElohimí, ʻoku ui ia ʻko e Tamai,’ ko e ʻTamai Taʻengata totonu ʻo e langí mo māmani’ (vakai, Mōsaia 16:15). Ko hono fakaʻuhinga tataú ko Sīsū Kalaisí ʻoku ui ʻKo e Tamai Taʻengata’ (ʻĪsaia 9:5; fakafehoanaki mo e 2 Nīfai 19:6). … ʻI he hoko ʻa Sīsū Kalaisi ko e Tupuʻangá, ʻoku toutou ui ai Ia ko e Tamai ʻo e langí mo māmani … ; pea koeʻuhí ʻoku taʻengata e lelei ʻo ʻEne ngaahi fakatupú, ʻoku taau ai hono ui Ia ko e Tamai Taʻengata ʻo e langí mo māmaní.]”

“Mahalo ʻoku tau mavahe mei he hala ʻoku fakatau atu ki he nongá pea fie maʻu ai ke tau kiʻi tuʻu hifo ʻo fakalaulauloto mo manatu ki he ngaahi akonaki ʻa e ʻEiki ʻo e Melinó, pea tau fakapapau ke fakaʻaongaʻi kinautolu ʻi heʻetau ngaahi fakakaukaú mo ʻetau tōʻonga moʻuí pea ke tau moʻuiʻaki ha fono ʻoku māʻolunga angé, ʻo ʻaʻeva ʻi he hala ʻoku lelei angé pea hoko ko ha ākonga lelei ange ʻo Kalaisi.”
