Toʻo mei he In Remembrance of Me, tā ʻe Walter Rane

Naʻe folofola ʻa Sīsū, “Ko au ko e mā moʻui kuo ʻalu hifo mei he langí: kapau ʻe kai ʻe ha tangata ʻa e maá ni, ʻe moʻui taʻe ngata ia” (Sione 6:51). Naʻe pehē ʻe ʻEletā D. Toti Kulisitofasoni, “ʻOku hanga ʻe Sīsū ʻo akoʻi mai kitautolu ko ʻEne kau ākongá, ʻoku totonu ke tau fekumi ki he ʻOtuá he ʻaho kotoa ke maʻu ha meʻakai—ha tokoni mo ha meʻa ke tau moʻui ai—ʻa ia ʻoku tau fie maʻu he ʻaho ko iá. Ko e fakaafe ko ia ʻa e ʻEikí … ʻoku hā ai ha ʻOtua ʻofa, ʻokú Ne ʻafioʻi ʻa e meʻa siʻisiʻí, mo e ngaahi fie maʻu fakaʻaho ʻEne fānaú pea vēkeveke ke tokoniʻi tahataha kinautolú. ʻOkú Ne talamai te tau lava ke kole ʻi he tuí ki he Tokotaha ko iá, ʻʻokú ne foaki lahi ki he kakai kotoa pē, pea ʻoku ʻikai valokiʻi; pea ʻe foaki ia kiate iaʻ (Sēmisi 1:5).”¹ ʻI he mahino kiate kitautolu ʻe foaki mai ʻe Sīsū Kalaisi ʻetau ngaahi fie maʻú, te tau tafoki kiate Ia ki heʻetau maʻuʻanga tokoni fakalaumālié.

ʻOku fakaafeʻi kitautolu ʻe ʻEletā Sefilī R. Hōlani ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá “ke kau fakataha ʻi he fononga ʻo e ngaahi fuofua kau ākonga ʻa Kalaisí ne nau fakaʻamua e mā ʻo e moʻuí—ko kinautolu naʻe ʻikai tafoki ka naʻe haʻu kiate Iá, ʻo nofo mo Iá, pea ʻilo naʻe ʻikai ha toe founga ke nau maʻu ai e malú mo e fakamoʻuí.”²
