Ko e Ongoongoleleí ʻi Heʻeku Moʻuí
Ko ʻEku Fakamoʻoni Fetaiakí
ʻOku nofo ʻa e tokotaha naʻá ne faʻú ʻi Singapoa.
Kiate aú, ʻoku fetaiaki e moʻoni ʻo e ongoongolelei ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí mo e moʻoni ʻo e Tohi ʻa Molomoná. Kapau ʻoku moʻoni ʻa e ongoongoleleí, pea ʻoku moʻoni leva ʻa e Tohi ʻa Molomoná.
Naʻe akoʻi ʻe he ongo faifekaú e ongoongoleleí ki hoku fāmilí ʻi homau ʻapí ʻi Singapoá. Naʻe ʻikai kau ʻeku tamaí ki he Siasí, ka naʻe kau ʻeku faʻeé. Naʻá ne akoʻi kimautolu kau kia Sīsū Kalaisi mo ʻEne ongoongoleleí. Ne u loto vēkeveke ʻi heʻeku kei siʻí ke talaange ki hoku kaungāmeʻá ko ha Tokotaha Siasi au.
Naʻá ku falala maʻu pē ki he ngaahi akonaki ʻeku faʻeé. Ka ʻi heʻeku hoko ko ha tokotaha lahi kei talavoú, ne fehuʻi mai ʻe ha faifekau pe naʻe tuʻo fiha ʻeku lau e Tohi ʻa Molomoná. Kuo ʻosi fai mai e fehuʻi ko ʻení kimuʻa, ka ne u fakatokangaʻi he taimí ni tupu meí he teʻeki ke u lau e Tohi ʻa Molomoná, ne ʻikai ke u ʻilo ai pe ʻoku moʻoni.
Ko ha Foʻi Moʻoni Taʻe Toe Veiveiua
Naʻe ʻikai lava ke u toe kalofi ha foʻi moʻoni taʻe toe veiveiua: ʻoku fetaiaki ʻa e moʻoni ʻo e ongoongolelei ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí mo e moʻoni ʻo e Tohi ʻa Molomoná. Kapau ʻoku moʻoni ʻa e ongoongoleleí, pea ʻoku moʻoni foki mo e Tohi ʻa Molomoná. Koeʻuhí naʻe ʻikai ke u ʻilo pe naʻe moʻoni e Tohi ʻa Molomoná, ʻoku ou taʻepauʻia ʻeni ʻi he meʻa kotoa ne u tupu hake ʻo tui ki aí. Ne u puputuʻu, pea ne ʻi hoku lotó maʻu pē ʻa e fehuʻi—“ʻOku moʻoni nai e Tohi ʻa Molomoná?”
Naʻe fakatupu ʻi he tupulaki hoku vā fetuʻutaki mo e Fakamoʻui ko Sīsū Kalaisí ha holi ki he moʻoní. ʻI he ʻaho ne u fakatokangaʻi ai he ʻikai pē feʻunga ʻeku ako kia Sīsū Kalaisí taʻe te u lau fakamātoato e Tohi ʻa Molomoná ko e ʻaho ia ne u loto fiefia ai ke ʻilo pe ʻoku moʻoní.
Uiuiʻi ko ha Faiako
Naʻá ku lotu ke maʻu ha fakahinohino. Lolotonga e taimi ko ʻení, naʻe ui au ʻe heʻeku palesiteni fakakoló ke u faiako fekauʻaki mo e Tohi ʻa Molomoná ʻi he kalasi Tokāteline ʻo e Ongoongoleleí. Naʻá ku tali e uiuiʻí he ne u ongoʻi mahalo naʻa ko e tali ia ʻa e ʻEikí ke tokoni mai ke u ʻilo e moʻoni ʻo e Tohi ʻa Molomoná pea ke ofi ange ki he Fakamoʻuí.
Naʻe faingataʻa ʻa e faiakó. Hili e ngaahi fuofua Sāpaté, naʻá ku ʻiloʻi he ʻikai pē ke lelei kae ʻoua ke u tui ki he Tohi ʻa Molomoná.
Fai ʻo ha Ngaahi Talanoa Fakakongokonga
Naʻá ku kamata ke ako e Tohi ʻa Molomoná ʻi he uike kotoa pē pea ʻikai fuoloa kuó u fiefia ʻi hono laú. Naʻe hoko kongokonga e ngaahi talanoa ʻi he Tohi ʻa Molomoná pea ne u ofi ange ai kia Sīsū Kalaisi.
Naʻá ku lau kau ki hono ʻaloʻi ʻo Kalaisí, ʻa ia ne mamata ki ai ʻa Nīfai ʻi ha vīsone:
“Naʻá ku mamata ʻo vakai ki he fuʻu kolo lahi ko Selusalemá, kaeʻumaʻā mo ha ngaahi kolo kehe foki. Pea naʻá ku vakai ki he kolo ko Nasaletí; pea ʻi he kolo ko Nasaletí naʻá ku vakai ki ha tāupoʻou, pea naʻe fuʻu hoihoifua ʻaupito ia mo hinehina. …
“Pea [naʻe pehē mai e ʻāngeló] kiate au: Vakai, ko e tāupoʻou ʻokú ke sio ki aí ko e faʻē ia ʻa e ʻAlo ʻo e ʻOtuá, ʻi he anga ʻo e kakanó” (1 Nīfai 11:13, 18).
Naʻá ku lau ʻo kau ki he palani ʻo e fiefiá pea ʻilo ʻoku fie maʻu ʻa e tui kia Sīsū Kalaisí ki hotau fakamoʻuí. Naʻe akonaki ʻa ʻAmuleki:
“ʻOku ou ʻiloʻi ʻe hāʻele mai ʻa Kalaisi ki he fānau ʻa e tangatá, ke toʻo kiate ia ʻa e ngaahi maumau-fono ʻa hono kakaí, pea te ne fai ʻa e fakalelei ki he ngaahi angahala ʻa e māmaní; he kuo folofola ʻaki ia ʻe he ʻEiki ko e ʻOtuá.
“… Hangē ko e palani lahi ʻa e ʻOtua Taʻengatá kuo pau ke fai ha fakalelei, pe ʻe malaʻia ʻa e faʻahinga kotoa ʻo e tangatá” (ʻAlamā 34:8–9).
Naʻá ku lau fekauʻaki mo e tokoni ʻa Sīsū Kalaisi ki Heʻene fanga sipi kehe ʻi ʻAmelika ʻo onoʻahó, peá u ʻilo ko e ʻOtua ia ʻo e puleʻanga kotoa pē. Naʻá Ne folofola ki he kau Nīfaí: “Pea ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou pehē kiate kimoutolu, ko kimoutolu ia ʻa e faʻahinga ʻa ia naʻá ku lau ki ai ʻo pehē: ʻOku ai mo ʻeku fanga sipi kehe ʻoku ʻikai ʻi he lotoʻaá ni; te u ʻomi mo kinautolu foki, pea te nau fanongo ki hoku leʻó; pea ʻe ʻi ai ʻa e lotoʻā pē taha, mo e tauhi pē taha” (3 Nīfai 15:21).
Naʻe Maʻu Fakakongokonga ʻEku Fakamoʻoní
ʻI heʻeku lau ʻa e Tohi ʻa Molomoná, naʻe maama ange ʻeku tui kia Sīsū Kalaisí pea mahino lahi ange ʻEne palaní (vakai, ʻAlamā 32:28).
ʻOku ou fakamoʻoni ko e Tohi ʻa Molomoná ʻa e maka-tuʻu-loto ʻo ʻetau tui fakalotú. Kuo fakahā mai ʻe he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní kiate au ko Siosefa Sāmitá ko e palōfita moʻoni ia naʻá ne toe fakafoki mai ʻa e Siasi ʻo e ʻOtuá ki he māmaní pea liliu e Tohi ʻa Molomoná mei he lauʻi peleti koulá. ʻOku fakamoʻoni e Tohi ʻa Molomoná kia Sīsū Kalaisi pea fetakinima mo e Tohi Tapú. ʻOkú na fakatou fakamoʻoni ko Sīsū Kalaisí ko e ʻAlo moʻoni ʻo e ʻOtuá pea ko e ʻOtua Ia ʻo e ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē, kae ʻikai ko ha taha pē.
