ʻOku tau lau he māhiná ni ʻi heʻetau ako ʻa e Haʻu, ʻo Muimui ʻIate Aú fekauʻaki mo ha aʻusia makehe: ko e ʻaʻahi ʻa e Kalaisi kuo toetuʻú ki he ongo ʻAmeliká ʻo fakaafeʻi ʻa e kakai Nīfaí ke nau “ʻunuʻunu mai kiate au, koeʻuhí ke mou ʻai homou nimá ki hoku vakavaká, pea ke mou ala foki ki he mataʻi faʻo ʻi hoku nimá mo hoku vaʻé, koeʻuhí ke mou ʻiloʻi ko au ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsilelí, pea ko e ʻOtua ʻo e māmaní kotoa pē, pea kuo tāmateʻi au koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi angahala ʻa e māmaní” (3 Nīfai 11:14).

ʻOku fakamatalaʻi ʻe Palesiteni Sefilī R. Hōlani ʻi heʻene fakamatala “Ko e Kāmeni ʻo e Lakanga Fakataulaʻeiki Māʻoniʻoní,” (peesi 4) ʻoku tau manatu kia Sīsū Kalaisi ʻi heʻetau tui ʻa e kāmeni fakatemipalé hili hono maʻu hotau ʻenitaumení. ʻOkú ne vahevahe ʻa e talaʻofa ʻa e Kau Palesitenisī ʻUluakí ʻe hanga ʻe hono tauhi ʻetau ngaahi fuakavá mo hono tui ʻo e kāmení ʻo ʻomi ha faingamālie lahi ange ke tau maʻu ai ʻa e maluʻi mo e mālohi ʻa e Fakamoʻuí.
ʻOku ou fakamoʻoni ʻoku ʻofa ʻetau Tamai Hēvaní mo e Fakamoʻuí ʻiate koe pea naʻe hāʻele mai ʻa Sīsū Kalaisi koeʻuhí ko e taumuʻa pē ko ʻení: ke ʻomi kiate kitautolu ʻa e fakafiemālie ʻoku tau fekumi ki aí. Ko Sīsū Kalaisi ʻa e fakafiemālié.
