Ne nau maʻu ha ʻAmanaki Lelei ki he Hāʻele Mai ʻa Kalaisí—pea ʻe Lava ke Tau Pehē Foki mo Kitautolu
Naʻe maʻu ʻe he kau palōfita ʻo e Tohi ʻa Molomoná ha ʻamanaki lelei ʻe hāʻele mai ʻa Kalaisi. ʻI heʻetau lau ʻenau ngaahi leá, te tau lava ʻo maʻu ʻa e ʻamanaki lelei tatau ki he taimi te Ne toe hāʻele mai aí.
Ko e hā ha ngaahi lea ʻokú ke fakakaukau ki ai ʻi hoʻo fakakaukau ki he Tohi ʻa Molomoná?

Ko e toetuʻú ʻa e taimi lelei taha ke tau toe fakalaulauloto ai ki he pōpoaki ʻo e Tohi ʻa Molomoná. Ko e mahuʻinga tahá, ko e pōpoaki ko Sīsū ʻa e Kalaisí, ko hotau Fakamoʻuí mo e Huhuʻí. Koeʻuhí ko Ia, ʻe lava ai ke fakatauʻatāinaʻi kitautolu mei he ngaahi mamahi ʻo e sinó mo e laumālié. Mei he maté mo e angahalá. Te tau lava ʻo ikunaʻi e meʻa kovi kotoa pē ʻoku ʻomi ʻe he māmaní kiate kitautolú.
ʻI hono fakalea ʻe tahá, te tau lava ʻo maʻu ha ʻamanaki lelei.
Naʻe ueʻi ʻe he ʻamanaki leleí—ʻamanaki lelei moʻoni, kuo fakatefito ʻia Sīsū Kalaisí—ʻa e kau palōfita ʻo e kuonga muʻá ke nau tauhi ha ngaahi lekooti ʻi he ʻū lauʻipeleti koula ʻa ia ʻe hoko ko e Tohi ʻa Molomoná. ʻOku talamai ʻe Sēkope, “He ko hono ʻuhinga ʻeni kuo mau tohi ai ʻa e ngaahi meʻa ní, koeʻuhi ke nau ʻilo naʻa mau ʻilo kia Kalaisi, pea naʻa mau maʻu ha ʻamanaki lelei ki hono nāunaú ʻi he ngaahi taʻu ʻe lau teau ki muʻa ʻi heʻene hāʻele maí” (Sēkope 4:4; naʻe tānaki atu hono fakamamafaʻí).
Naʻe fie maʻu ʻe Sēkope ke tau ʻilo naʻá ne ʻiloʻi—mo e kau palōfita tauhi-lekooti kehé—ʻe hāʻele mai ʻa Kalaisi. Ko ha ngaahi taʻu ia ʻe laungeau kimuʻa peá Ne hāʻele maí! Pea naʻe ueʻi kinautolu ke nau maʻu ʻa e ʻamanaki lelei ko iá mei he ngaahi lea ʻa e kau palōfita ne nau laú. ʻOku fakamatala ʻe Sēkope ʻo pehē, “pea naʻe ʻikai ko kimautolu pē naʻe maʻu ha ʻamanaki lelei ki hono nāunaú, kā ko e kau palōfita māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē foki, ʻa ia naʻe ʻi muʻa ʻiate kimautolú.
“Vakai, naʻa nau tui kia Kalaisi mo hū ki he Tamaí ʻi hono huafá, pea ʻoku mau hū foki ki he Tamaí ʻi hono huafá. …
“Ko ia, ʻoku mau fakatotolo ki he kau palōfitá, pea ʻoku mau maʻu ha ngaahi fakahā lahi mo e laumālie ʻo e kikité; pea ʻi heʻemau maʻu ʻa e ngaahi fakamoʻoni kotoá ni ʻoku mau maʻu ai ha ʻamanaki lelei, pea ʻoku tuʻu maʻu ai ʻa ʻemau tuí” (Sēkope 4:4–6; vakai foki, 1 Nīfai 19:21; Sēkope 7:11; Mōsaia 3:13; Hilamani 8:16).
Naʻe teuteuʻi kinautolu ʻe he ʻamanaki lelei ne nau maʻu mei heʻenau ngaahi aʻusia fakatāutahá pea mo e ngaahi kikite ne nau lau ʻi he ngaahi folofolá, ki he ʻaho ʻe hāʻele mai ai ʻa Kalaisí. ʻI he founga tatau pē, ʻoku poupouʻi kitautolu ʻe he kau palōfita ʻo e ʻaho ní ke tau teuteu ki he taimi ʻe toe hāʻele mai ai ʻa Kalaisí. Kapau ʻoku tau fie maʻu ke tau maʻu ʻa e ʻamanaki lelei tatau, ʻe fie maʻu ke tau “fakatotolo ki he kau palōfitá, pea [feinga ke] maʻu ha ngaahi fakahā lahi pea mo e laumālie ʻo e kikité.” He ʻikai ngata pē hono fakamālohia kitautolu ʻe heʻenau ngaahi fakamoʻoni kia Sīsū Kalaisí ka te nau tokoni foki ke teuteuʻi kitautolu ki Heʻene hāʻele maí.
