ʻOku tāpuekina kitautolu ʻi he uike takitaha ʻaki e faingamālie ke maʻu e sākalamēnití ʻi heʻetau maʻu lotú. Ko hono moʻoní, ko e taha ia e ngaahi ʻuhinga ʻoku tau ʻalu ai ki he lotú ʻi he Sāpaté. Ka ʻokú ke ʻiloʻi nai e ʻuhinga ʻoku fuʻu mahuʻinga ai e sākalamēnití? ʻOku ʻi ai ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻoku tau palōmesi ke fai ʻoku hoko ai ia ko e taha ʻo e ngaahi ouau mahuʻinga mo toputapu taha ʻi he Siasí: manatu kia Sīsū Kalaisi.
Fakakaukau ki ai: ʻoku hoko ʻa e manatu ki he Fakamoʻuí ko ha konga mahuʻinga ʻo e ongo lotu tāpuakiʻi ʻo e sākalamēnití. ʻOku tau palōmesi ai te tau “manatu maʻu ai pē kiate ia” (T&F 20:77, 79), ʻo ʻikai ʻi he Sāpaté pē kae maʻu ai pē. ʻI he taimi te tau manatu maʻu ai pē ki he Fakamoʻuí, ʻe hāsino ʻa ʻEne ngaahi tuʻunga moʻuí mo e akonakí ʻi heʻetau moʻuí, pea te tau maʻu foki ha ivi takiekina mo ha poupou mālohi ʻi heʻetau moʻuí.
Founga naʻe Tokoniʻi Ai ʻe he Manatú Ha Talavou
Hangē ko ʻení, ʻi he taimi naʻe ui ai ʻe ha ʻāngelo ʻa e ʻOtuá ʻa ʻAlamā ko e Siʻí ke fakatomalá, naʻe tō ʻa ʻAlamā ki he kelekelé pea ʻikai toe lava ʻo lea pe ngaue ʻi ha ngaahi ʻaho lahi. Lolotonga ʻení, naʻe fakamamahiʻi ia ʻe heʻene manatu ki heʻene ngaahi angahalá, ka naʻá ne “manatuʻi … [ʻene] fanongo ki ha kikite ʻa [ʻene] tamaí … kau ki he hāʻele mai ha tokotaha ʻa ia ko Sīsū Kalaisi, ko e ʻAlo ʻo e ʻOtuá, ke ne fai ha fakalelei ki he ngaahi angahala ʻa e māmaní.” Naʻá ne pehē leva: “Ko ʻeni, ʻi he nofo ʻi hoku ʻatamaí ʻa e fakakaukau ko ʻeni, naʻá ku tangi ʻi hoku lotó: ʻE Sīsū, ʻa koe ko e ʻAlo ʻo e ʻOtuá, ʻaloʻofa mai kiate au, ʻa ia ʻoku ou ʻi he ʻahu ʻo e mamahí, pea kuo takatakai ʻiate au ʻa e ngaahi sēini taʻengata ʻo e maté. Pea ko ʻeni, vakai, ʻi heʻeku fakakaukau ki aí, naʻe ʻikai te u toe manatuʻi ʻa hoku ngaahi mamahí” (ʻAlamā 36:17–19).
Naʻe tataki ʻa ʻAlamā heʻene fakakaukau pē kia Kalaisí ke ne lotu ʻo kole ha ʻaloʻofa, ʻa ia naʻe mole ai ʻene ongoʻi halaiá, fakasiʻisiʻi ʻene mamahí, pea tokoniʻi ia ke fakatomala. Te tau lava ʻo līʻoa ʻetau moʻuí maʻa Kalaisi pea aʻusia ʻa e fiefia ʻʻoku maʻu ʻi hono moʻui ʻaki e ongoongoleleí ʻo hangē ko ʻAlamaá. ʻOku kamata kotoa ʻeni ʻi heʻetau fili ke manatu kia Sīsū Kalaisi mo e mālohi ʻo ʻEne Fakaleleí.
Ko ha ngaahi tāpuaki ʻeni ʻe nima ʻe hoko mai ʻi hono tauhi ʻetau palōmesi ke manatu maʻu ai pē ki he Fakamoʻuí.

ʻOku ʻikai ke fakahā mai pē ʻe Sīsū ʻa e hala ki he moʻui taʻengatá; ka ʻokú Ne taki ʻa e halá. Naʻá ne folofola, “Ko au ko e hala, mo e moʻoni, pea mo e moʻui” (Sione 14:6). Ko hotau faʻifaʻitakiʻanga haohaoá ʻa Kalaisi. Naʻe akoʻi mo fakahaaʻi ʻe Sīsū ʻa e ʻofá, anga-vaivaí, loto fakatōkilaló, mo e manavaʻofá lolotonga ʻEne ngāue ʻi he māmaní. Naʻá Ne fakaʻaongaʻi Hono taimí ke akoʻi, tokoniʻi, mo ʻofa ki he niʻihi kehé.

Ka faifai angé ʻokú ke puputuʻu pe ʻikai ʻiloʻi e meʻa ke faí, manatu ki he Fakamoʻuí. Naʻa Ne folofola, “Ko au ko e maama ʻo māmani: ko ia ʻoku muimui ʻiate aú, ʻe ʻikai ʻalu ia ʻi he poʻulí, ka ʻe ʻiate ia ʻa e maama ʻo e moʻuí” (Sione 8:12).
