Ine eo kar katōke ekar “naan eo an aelōñ in kiiñ eo” (Matu 13:19), “naan eo” (Mark 4:14), ak “naan eo an Anij” (Luk 8:11) katak ko an Maajta im rikarejar ro An.

I. Bwidej eo Edekāke, Ejjeļo̧k Okaraņ

Jet ine “rebuñut ijo e dekāke, ijo e dik bwidej ie, im e mōkaj an eddek, bwe e pejpej bwidej: ak ke e lukkuun raelep e kōjeje, im bwe ejjeļo̧k okran, ej aemedļo̧k, bwe ejjeļo̧k okraer” (Mark 4:5–6).

Jisōs eaar kōmeļeļeik menin kōn ro “raar ron̄jake naan, e m̧ōkaj aer bōke, im e bun̄būrueir,” ak kōnke eaar “ejjeļo̧k okraer ilo er, … n̄e apan̄ ak jum̧ae ej waļo̧k kōn naan, em̧ōkaj aer inepata” (Mark 4:16–17).

Ta eo ej kōm̧m̧an bwe ro rej ron̄jake en “ejjeļo̧k okraer”? En̄in ej jekjek eo an membōr ro rekāāl ro rej oktak tok jen ippān mijinede ro ak ilo elōn̄ wāween ko rem̧m̧an ilo Kabun̄ in ak kōjeram̧m̧an ko reļļap an membōr ro ilo Kabun̄ in. Kōnke tōmak eo an armej rein eaar jab, n̄e jum̧ae ej waļo̧k. Ak bōlen ro raar rūtto ļo̧k ilo Kabun̄ in―ro eto aer membōr―remaron̄ jako barāinwōt kōnke ejjeļo̧k okraer. Iaar jeļā jet iaan―membōr rein ro raar jab dim im aetok oktak eo aer n̄an gospel eo an Jisōs Kraist. Eļan̄n̄e jejjab katōk okarar ilo katak ko ilo gospel in im iien otemjej lo̧o̧ri katak ko, elōn̄ iaad remaron̄ bōk juon bōro edōkāke, eo bwidej eo edōkāke n̄an ine in jetōb.

Mōn̄ā ko ilo jetōb rej menin aikuj n̄an an jetōb eo mour, eļaptata ilo juon laļ eo mej ej etal jān tōmak ilo Anij im jim̧we eo an em̧m̧an im bōd.

Jodikdik ro, eļan̄n̄e katak eo eļap an pen, eñin juon waanjoñak ealikkar. Eļan̄n̄e kwojkwoj eo ej iwōj im kwōj text ak wunojdikdik ak mijiin ak kōm̧m̧an jabdewōt men ñan kaarmejete eok make jen am najidik eok ilo jetōb, kwōj kam̧ōjņo̧ik naan in kam̧ool eo am̧ im kōm̧m̧an bwe en pen am̧ en̄jake jetōb.

II. Kālōklōk ko: Kea eo an Laļ in im M̧oņ ko nae M̧weie

Jisōs eaar katakin bwe, “im jet re buñut ilo bwiljin kālōklōk ko, im kālōklōk ko rej eddek, im koutamweiki, im e jab jebar leen” (Mark 4:7). Ear kōmleleiki bwe errein rej “ro raar roñjake naan, im inepata ko an lal in im mom an mweiuk ko im mom kake men ko jet, rej deļo̧ñ im koutamweik naan, im ejab jebar leen” (Mark 4:18–19). Aaet eñin ej juon kakkōļļe ñan ad woj aolep roñjake.

Inaaj m̧okta kōnono kōn riab eo ke m̧weie enaaj bōktok mōnōnō. Jekdoon ia jeped ie ilo mour in jetōb––jekdoon jon̄an oktak eo ad––jenaaj aolep jelm̧ae kapo ilo menin. Eļan̄n̄e mwilid im kōnaan ko ad rej obrak kōn wāween in, kōjerbale ak bōke bwe en ad, jej ņa etan arōk. Ebwe ijo kar ba im jeje kake mweiuk im jidik wōt naaj kakopaik tok ijin.2 Ro rej tōmak ilo men eo ņa etan katak kōn mweie rej po im ļōmņak ke riab eo ke m̧weie enaaj bōktok mōnōnō. Ad kabwijer jeram̧m̧an ko im an lukkuun ļap wōnāād ejjab juon kōkkaļļen ad jibadek lañ, im an ejjeļo̧k men kein ejjab kam̧ool am jab kautej lañ. Ke Jisōs ekar jiroñļo̧k rikaļoor eo ear tōmak ke emaroñ bōk mour indeeo eļan̄n̄e ear aji ļo̧k aolep men ewōr ippān ñan ro rijeramōl (lale Mark 10:17–24), E ear jab kwaļo̧k nana eo an mweie ak nana eo ilo mwilin rikaļoor eo kaki mweiuk ko. Āinwōt ad wōj aolep jelā, Jisōs ear nōbar Rijaimria eo emman eo ear bar kōjerbal ejja jāān eo wōt ñan lale eo mōttan me Judas ear karmejete e. Mani ejjab okran aolep nana ak iakwe mani (lale 1 Timote 6:10).

Bok in Mormon ej jiron̄ kōj kōn iien eo ke Kabuñ eo an Anij “eaar jino bōjrak ilo eddōk eo an” (Alma 4:10) kōnke “armej ro ilo kabun̄ eo raar jino  … likūt burueer ioon m̧wiuk ko im ioon men ko rewaan an laļ” (Alma 4:8). Jabdewōt eo eļap m̧weiuk ippān ekauwōtata ilo mour in jetōb ilo tōpar kōn wōt mweiuk im men ko an laļ in.3 Ejjejet ijino in ñan katak eo tok juon an Rilo̧mo̧o̧r.

Kālōklōk eo ekkañ tata im ejjab aikuj bōk jikin gospel eo ilo mour kein ad rej kajoor ko an laļ in me Jisōs eaar ņaetaer “ļōmņak ko im m̧weiuk ko im kam̧ōņōņō ko an mour in” Men kein rellōn̄ n̄an kōllajraki. Jet waanjon̄ok renaaj lukkuun alikkar. (Luke 8:14)

Ilo juon tōre Jisōs ear jiroñ Rikaļoor eo An eļaptata, ba n̄an Piter, “Kwōj itōn latipñōl Eo; bwe kwō jab ļōmnak kōn men ko an Anij, a kōn men ko an armej ran.” (Matu 16:23; bar lale D&C 3:6–7; 58:39). Ļōmņak kōn men ko an armej meļeļe kōmōkaj mokta men ko an laļ in im̧aan jen men ko an Anij ilo m̧akūtkūt ko ad, ilo itoklimo ko ad, im ļōmņak ko ad.

Jej jenliktak ñan men ko “rekam̧ōnōnō ilo mour in” (1)  eļan̄n̄e jej añūrlap, im ekautōmeik anemkwōj in kālet eo eaorōk letok in Anij; (2)  ilo ad apañ kake kapo ko rellōñ, ko rej ubakeļo̧k kōj jen menin aorōk ko an indeeo; im (3)  eļan̄n̄e jej ļōmnak bwe ewōr ad jolet, eo ej kōmōjnoik eddōļo̧k eo ad eaorōk ñan ad maroñ ilo̧k ilo mejān kajjik eo ad ñan indeeo.

Jej anjo̧ kōn “kōjparok… an mour in” ad mijak in jelm̧ae ilju im jekļaj ebōbrae kōj jān ad bōk bun̄tōn ko im kōm̧m̧an jokālet ko, eo ekiil ad wōnm̧aanļo̧k ilo tōmak, lōke ilo Anij im kalimur ko An. Roñoul lalem iiō rōmootļo̧k rikaki in BYU eo aō emman, Hugh  W. Nibley, ear konono kōn kauwōtata eo kōn bo ilo kapo ko an lalin. Kar kajitkini ilo juon iien bwebwenato eļan̄n̄e wāween ko an laļ in im eddo ko ad ñan kwaļo̧k kōn gospel ekōm̧m̧an ad kōņaan pukōt jet wāween ad “ņa iaļen m̧antin laļ in ko ad ilo ta ko jej kōm̧m̧ani ilo Kabun̄.”4

Uwaak eo an: “Eñne lukkuun meļeļe eo an Kabuñ in, ta ejjab ke? Kwōj aikuj m̧ōņōņō in bōk metak ko ijin, kwōj aikuj m̧ōņōņō in jelm̧ae kauwōtata. Ijo in tōmak ej itok ie tok. … kalim̧m̧ur eo ad bwe jen idajon̄jon̄, ej aikuj bwe en pen, ej aikuj bwe jen jab pidodo ekkar ñan mantin mour.”5

Menin eaorōk ilo gospel in kar kakūrmole ilo kāmpōj en an BYU jet allōñ rōmootļo̧k jen juon ritōl eļap an Katlik, Charles J. Chaput, archbishop eo ilo Philadelphia. Konono “kōn kain ñūrbōktak ko an Katlik im LDS rej leto letak ippān doon kaki,” āinwōt “mare im baam̧le, lukkuun aorōk eo an em̧m̧aan im kōrā, lukkuun unleplep eo an mour, im menin aikuj eo an anemkwōj in kabuñ,” eaar ba:

“Ikōnaan bar kalikkar aorōk eo an lukkuun mour kōn ta kōmij tōmak kake. Menin eaikuj bwe en im̧aantata––ejjab baj ñan kōj wōt im baam̧le ko ad ak ilo kabuñ ko ad, ilo kālet ko ad kōn kien, ilo jerbal in bejnej ko ad, ad lale ro rijeram̧ōl, ilo bar juon wāween, ilo men otemjej jej kōm̧m̧ani.”

“Eñin unin an aorōk,” ear wōnmaanļo̧k wōt. “katak jen imminene ko ilo Katlik. Kōm Katlik kōmij tōmak bwe jerbal ko ami ren emman ilo jukjukinped eo. Erom juon jon̄ak em̧m̧an im̧aan jukjukinpād eo im erom m̧ōttan jukjukinpād eo.”6

Naan in kakkōl eo an Rilo̧mo̧o̧r eo nae limo ko ilo laļ in rebōbrae naan ko an Anij ilo mour ko ad im rej kapen ad door menin aorōk ko im̧aan tata—buruwōd bwe en tōt—ilo kien ko an Anij im tōl an ritōl ro ilo Kabuñ eo an An.

Em̧m̧an eo an juon bwidej ej pedped wōt ioon bōro ko buruwōd wōj kajjojo eo ej bōk ine eo an gospel in.

III. Wōtļo̧k ioon Bwidej Em̧m̧an im Jebar Leen
