Luke 12–17; Sione 11

Ko e hā ka folofola ai e ʻOtuá ʻo pehē “Ko e vale koe” ki ha tangata faʻa ngāue, mo lavameʻa ʻa ia kuó ne langa ha ngaahi feleoko lalahi pea fakafonu ia ʻaki ʻa e ngaahi fua ʻo ʻene ngāué? (vakai, Luke 12:16–21). ʻI he ngaahi vahe ko ʻeni ʻi he tohi Luké, ʻoku akoʻi ʻe he Fakamoʻuí ha ngaahi talanoa fakatātā ʻe ala tokoni ke tau tokanga taha ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku taʻengatá. ʻOku hiki atu heni ha niʻihi ʻo e ngaahi talanoa fakatātā ko ʻení. Te ke fakamatala fakanounouʻi fēfē ʻa e ʻuhinga ʻo e tala-fakatātā takitaha? ʻOkú ke pehē ko e hā ʻoku finangalo ʻa e ʻEikí ke ke akó?

Kuó ke fifili nai ki he ongo ʻoku maʻu ʻe he Tamai Hēvaní kiate kinautolu kuo faiangahala pe “heé”? Naʻe fakaangaʻi ʻe he kau Fālesí mo e kau tangata tohí ʻa Sīsū ʻi Heʻene feohi mo e kakai peheé. Naʻe tali ange ʻe Sīsū ʻaki Haʻane talanoa ha talanoa fakatātā ʻe tolu, ʻa ia ʻoku hā ʻi he Luke 15—ko e talanoa fakatātā ʻo e sipi naʻe heé, paʻanga naʻe molé, mo e foha maumau koloá.

Lolotonga hoʻo lau ʻa e ngaahi talanoa fakatātā ko ʻení, fakakaukau ke ke lisi ʻa e ngaahi meʻa ʻoku nau faitatau mo faikehekehe aí. Hangē ko ʻení, te ke lava ʻo fekumi ki he meʻa naʻe molé mo hono ʻuhingá, founga naʻe maʻu ai iá, pea naʻe fēfē tali ʻa e kakaí ʻi he taimi naʻe maʻu ai iá. Ko e hā ha ngaahi pōpoaki ʻa Sīsū ki he niʻihi ko ia ʻoku “heé”—ʻo kau ai ʻa kinautolu ʻoku ʻikai ke nau ʻiloʻi ʻoku nau heé? Ko e hā ha ngaahi pōpoaki naʻá ne ʻoatu ki he kakai ko ia ʻoku nau fekumi ki he niʻihi ʻoku heé?

Ko hono moʻoní, ʻoku lelei maʻu pē ke ʻoua naʻá te hē. Naʻe tohi fekauʻaki mo e Luke 15:7, ʻa ʻEletā James  E. Talmage ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai ha ʻuhinga lelei ki he fakamahamahalo ko ia ʻoku mahuʻinga ange ʻa e tokotaha faiangahala ne fakatomalá, ʻi he laumālie angatonu naʻá ne fakafisingaʻi e angahalá” (Jesus the Christ [1916], 461). Ka neongo iá, ʻoku tau faiangahala kotoa pē pea ʻoku tau fie maʻu ʻa e fakahaofí, pea ko e pōpoaki fakafiemālie ʻa e ngaahi talanoa fakatātā ʻa e Fakamoʻuí ko e malava ko ia ke tau fakatomala kotoa pē pea toe foki ki he māʻoniʻoní, he ʻoku finangalo ʻa e ʻOtuá ke ʻoua naʻa ʻauha ha laumālie ʻe taha.

Naʻe fakamatalaʻi ʻe ʻEletā James E. Talmage ha lēsoni te tau lava ʻo ako mei he talanoa fakatātaá: “Ke mou faivelenga; he ʻoku vave e mole atu ʻa e ʻaho te mou ngāueʻaki ai hoʻomou ngaahi koloa fakaemāmaní. Ako mei he taʻefaitotonú mo e koví; kapau ʻoku nau mātuʻaki tokanga ke teuteu ki he kahaʻu pē ʻoku nau fakakaukau ki aí, ʻe fēfē hono lahi ange hoʻo teuteu ki aí, ʻi hoʻo tui ki ha kahaʻu taʻengatá! Kapau kuo teʻeki ke ke poto mo anga-fakapotopoto ʻi hono fakaʻaongaʻi ʻo e ‘koloa taʻe māʻoniʻoní’, ʻe fēfē ai haʻo falalaʻanga ke tauhi e ngaahi koloa lahi ange ʻoku tolongá?” (Jesus the Christ, 464).

Kapau naʻá ke kau ʻi he kau kilia ʻe toko hongofulú, ʻokú ke pehē te ke toe foki ʻo fakamālō ki he Fakamoʻuí? Ko e hā mo ha toe ngaahi tāpuaki kehe naʻe maʻu ʻe he tangata kilia houngaʻiá koeʻuhí ko ʻene fakahaaʻi ʻene fakamāloó? ʻOku tokoniʻi fakalaumālie fēfē koe ʻi hoʻo fakahaaʻi hoʻo houngaʻiá? Mahalo naʻa lelei kiate koe ke ke kamata hiki ʻi ha tohinoa ʻa e ngaahi meʻa ʻokú ke houngaʻia aí, hangē ko ia ne fakamatalaʻi ʻe Palesiteni Henry B. Eyring ʻi heʻene lea “ʻOiauē Manatu, Manatu” (Ensign pe Liahona, Nōvema 2007, 66–69).

Ko e mana ko ia ʻo hono fokotuʻu hake ʻa Lasalosi mei he maté ko ha fakamoʻoni mālohi mo taʻe toe-fehuʻia ia ko Sīsū ko e ʻAlo moʻoni Ia ʻo e ʻOtuá mo e Mīsaia naʻe talaʻofa maí. Ko e hā ha ngaahi lea, kupuʻi lea pe fakamatala ʻi he Sione 11:1–46 ʻokú ne fakamālohia hoʻo tui ko Sīsū Kalaisi ʻa e “toetuʻú, mo e moʻuí”? ʻOku tākiekina fēfē ʻe he ʻilo ko ʻení hoʻo moʻuí mo hoʻo ngaahi filí?

ʻOku mahino nai ki he kau mēmipa ho fāmilí ʻa e ongo ko ia ʻo e mole ha meʻa—pe ke te mole? ʻE lava ke kamataʻi ʻe he talanoa ki heʻenau ngaahi aʻusiá ha fealēleaʻaki fekauʻaki mo e ngaahi talanoa fakatātā ʻo e sipi heé mo e paʻanga naʻe molé. Pe te mou vaʻinga langatoi fakafāmili. ʻOku tokoni fēfē ʻa e ʻekitivitī ko ʻení ke mahino kiate kitautolu ʻa e ngaahi talanoa fakatātā ko ʻení?

Ko e hā ha founga ʻe lava ke tau hangē ai ko e tamai ʻi he talanoa ko ʻení ʻi he mole hatau ʻofaʻanga? Ko e hā te tau lava ʻo ako mei he aʻusia ʻa e foha lahí ʻe ala tokoni ke tau anga faka-Kalaisi ange? Ko e hā ha ngaahi founga ʻoku tatau ai ʻa e tamai ʻi he talanoa fakatātā ko ʻení mo ʻetau Tamai Hēvaní?

Ke tokoni ki ho fāmilí ke nau fakaʻaongaʻi ʻa e talanoa ki he kau kilia ʻe toko hongofulú, te ke lava ʻo fakaafeʻi ke nau fai ha fanga kiʻi tohi fakapulipuli ʻo fakahaaʻi ai ʻenau houngaʻiá pea tuku takai holo ia ʻi he loto falé.
