Ngaahi ʻEkitivitī Ako ʻOku Ala Fakahokó

Fakaʻaongaʻi ha kiʻi taimi ke ke fakalaulauloto ai ki ha faʻahinga tūkunga pe pole te ke fehangahangai mo ia ʻa ia te ke fiemaʻu ai ha tokoni.

ʻOku lahi e ngaahi fatongia mo e ngaahi huafa ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí. ʻOku nau takitaha akoʻi mai ha meʻa mahuʻinga fekauʻaki mo Ia mo ʻEne malava ke tokoniʻi kitautolú. ʻI hoʻo ako he ʻaho ní, kumi Hono ngaahi huafá mo e ngaahi fatongiá pea fakalaulauloto ki he founga ʻe lava ke Ne feʻunga makehe ai ke tokoniʻi koé.

Ko e folofola ʻa e ʻEikí ki he ongo tuʻi ʻo Siutá

Lolotonga e kuonga ʻo ʻĪsaiá, naʻe fakatou fehangahangai ʻa e Tuʻi ko ʻĀhasi ʻo Siutá pea mo hono foha kimui ai ko e Tuʻi ko Hesekaiá, mo ha ngaahi tūkunga faingataʻa ʻaupito: naʻe fakamanamana ha ngaahi puleʻanga mālohi ke ʻohofi kinaua. ʻI he ongo tūkungá fakatouʻosi, naʻe naʻinaʻi ʻa e ʻEikí ki he ongo tuʻí mo hona kakaí ke nau falala kiate Ia kae ʻoua te nau fakafaʻafaʻahi mo e ngaahi puleʻanga kehé. Lau e ngaahi veesi ko ʻení, ʻo kumi e ngaahi kupuʻi lea ʻoku nau fakahaaʻi mai ʻoku fakaafeʻi ʻe he ʻEikí kinautolu ke nau falala kiate Ia.

ʻI he hokohoko atu hoʻo akó, fakalaulauloto ki he ʻuhinga ke falala ki he ʻEikí ʻi he ngaahi faingataʻa pau ʻokú ke fehangahangai mo iá.

Ko e Ngaahi Huafa ʻo e Fakamoʻuí

ʻI ha veesi naʻá ke akó, naʻe fakaʻaongaʻi ai ʻe ʻĪsaia ha huafa pau maʻa Sīsū Kalaisi ʻa ia, kapau ne mahino, ne mei tokoni ki he ongo tuʻí ni mo hona kakaí ke nau falala kiate Ia. Toe vakaiʻi e 2 Nīfai 18:13 pea fakakaukau ke fakaʻilongaʻi e huafa ko ʻení.

ʻE lava ke tokoni hono ʻiloʻi mo mahino e ngaahi huafa ʻo e Fakamoʻuí ke tau ʻiloʻi, ʻofa, mo falala lahi ange ai kiate Ia ʻi heʻetau moʻuí. Ke tokoni ke mahino kiate koe ʻa e huafa “ʻEiki ʻo e Ngaahi Kau Taú,” fekumi ki hono ʻuhingá ʻi he Fakahinohino ki he Ngaahi Folofolá.

1. Tali e ongo fehuʻi ko ‘ení:

   • Ko e hā naʻá ke ako fekauʻaki mo Sīsū Kalaisí?

   • ʻE fakafeʻungaʻi fēfē nai ʻe he fatongia ko ʻení ʻa e Fakamoʻuí ke tokoni ki he ongo tuʻi ko ʻení mo honaa kakaí ʻi he taimi ne fakamanamanaʻi ai kinautolu ʻe he ngaahi kau tau kehé?

Ngaahi Kikite ʻa ʻĪsaiá

Naʻe kikite foki ʻa ʻĪsaia ki he ongo tuʻi ko ʻení mo hona kakaí fekauʻaki mo e ʻaloʻi ʻo e Fakamoʻuí mo ʻEne Pule Taʻu ʻe Taha Afé. Lau ʻa e 2 Nīfai 17:14–15; 19:2, 6–7, ʻo kumi e meʻa naʻe akoʻi ʻe ʻĪsaia fekauʻaki mo Sīsū Kalaisí, tautautefito ki Hono ngaahi huafá.

Kapau ʻokú ke fiemaʻu ke ʻiloʻi mo ha toe ngaahi huafa kehe ʻo e Fakamoʻuí ʻoku lekooti ʻi he Tohi ʻa Molomoná, fakakaukau ke lau ha niʻihi ʻo e ngaahi veesi ko ʻení: 1 Nīfai 10:4–6; 12:18; 13:41; 15:14–15; 17:30; 19:12; 2 Nīfai 1:10; 2:6, 10; 9:5, 46; 10:3, 14; 15:16. ʻOku ʻi ai foki mo ha ngaahi huafa mo ha ngaahi fakamoʻoni fakafolofola ʻi he Fakahinohino ki he Ngaahi Folofolá ʻi he “Sīsū Kalaisí”

2. Fili ha huafa ʻe taha ʻo e Fakamoʻuí ʻokú ke fie ʻilo lahi ange ki ai. Hili iá pea fai leva e ngaahi meʻa ko ʻení:

   • Fakamatalaʻi e ʻuhinga ʻo e huafa ko ʻení kiate koé. (Fakakaukau ke kumi e huafá ʻi he Fakahinohino ki he Ngaahi Folofolá. Kapau ʻoku ʻikai ʻasi e huafá aí, fakakaukau ke ako ha fakamatala fakalūkufua kia Sīsū Kalaisi pea fakalaulauloto ki he founga ʻe fekauʻaki ai e huafa naʻá ke filí mo Hono ʻulungāngá mo e misioná fakalūkufua. ʻE ala tokoni foki ke kumi ʻa e huafá ʻi ha tikisinale angamaheni.)

   • Fakakaukau ki ha talanoa pe kumi ha fakatātā ʻokú ne fakahaaʻi e ngāue ʻa e Fakamoʻuí ʻi he fatongia naʻá ke filí.

   • Fakamatalaʻi e meʻa ʻoku akoʻi atu ʻe he huafá fekauʻaki mo e Fakamoʻuí, ko ʻEne ngaahi taumuʻá, ko ʻEne ʻofá, mo Hono mālohí.

   • Fakamatalaʻi e founga ʻoku fakafeʻungaʻi makehe ai ʻe he fatongia ko ʻení ʻa e Fakamoʻuí ke tokoniʻi koe ʻi hoʻo moʻuí pe ko e ʻuhinga te ke falala ai kiate Iá. (ʻE lava ke kau heni ʻa e founga kuo ʻosi tokoniʻi ai koe ʻe he Fakamoʻuí ʻi hoʻo moʻuí.)

Ko e Falala ki he ʻEikí

Meʻapangó, he naʻe fili ʻa e Tuʻi ko ʻĀhasí mo ha niʻihi tokolahi ʻo e kakai ʻo Siutá ke ʻoua te nau tui kia ʻĪsaia pea ʻikai ke nau falala ki he ʻEikí ke maʻu ha maluʻi. Naʻe ʻohofi hono kakaí, pea puke pōpula ha tokolahi. (Vakai, 2 Ngaahi Tuʻi 16; 2 Fakamatala Meʻa Hokohoko 28.) Naʻe fili ʻe he Tuʻi ko Hesekaiá ke falala ki he ʻEikí mo muimui ki he akonaki ʻa ʻĪsaiá, kae ʻikai hangē ko ʻene tamaí. Ko hono olá, naʻe maluʻi ʻe he ʻEikí ʻa e kakai ʻi Selusalemá ʻaki Haʻane tuku hifo ha ʻāngelo ke fakaʻauha ʻa e kau tau ne ʻohofi kinautolú. (Vakai, 2 Ngaahi Tuʻi 19:15–20, 32–35.)

Fakalaulauloto ki he meʻa kuó ke ako mo ongoʻi fekauʻaki mo Sīsū Kalaisi ʻi he lēsoni ko ʻení. Tohi ʻi hoʻo tohinoa akó ʻa e founga te ke ala fakatupulaki ai hoʻo falala kiate Iá. Te ke lava ʻo hiki ha huafa pe fatongia pau ʻokú Ne maʻu pea mo e founga te ke fie falala lahi ange ai kiate Ia ʻi he fatongia ko iá.

Fili Pē: Fie Ako Lahi Ange?

Ko e hā mo ha toe meʻa ʻoku tau ʻilo kau kia ʻĀhasi mo Hesekaia mo e kau tau naʻá na fehangahangai mo iá?

ʻI he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo e Tuʻi ko ʻĀhasí, naʻe fakamanamanaʻi e ngaahi puleʻanga ʻo ʻIsileli, Sīlia mo Siutá ʻe he Puleʻanga ʻAsīliá ʻa ia ne mālohi angé. Naʻe fiemaʻu ʻe he ongo tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli mo Sīliá ʻa e Tuʻi ko ʻĀhasi ʻo Siutá ke kau fakataha mo kinaua ʻi ha felotoi ke tauʻi e puleʻanga mālohi ʻo ʻAsīliá. ʻI he taimi naʻe fakasītuʻaʻi ai ʻe he Tuʻi ko ʻĀhasí ke kau ʻi hono fakafepakiʻi ʻo ʻAsīliá, naʻe ʻohofi ʻe ʻIsileli mo Sīlia ʻa Siuta koeʻuhí ke fokotuʻu ha pule ʻe taha ʻi he taloni ʻo Siutá ʻa ia te ne poupouʻi ʻenau fakafaʻahi ke tauʻi ʻa ʻAsīliá (vakai, 2 Nīfai 17:1, 6). Naʻe ʻikai falala ʻa ʻĀhasi ki he maluʻi ʻa e ʻEikí, ka naʻá ne fakaava e tauhiʻanga koloa ʻo e temipale ʻi Selusalemá peá ne ʻoatu e ngaahi koloa ko iá ki he kau ʻAsīliá ko haʻane feinga ke fakatau mai ʻaki ia honau maluʻí mo ʻofeina ai kinautolu. Ka neongo ia, naʻe kei ʻohofi pē ʻe he kau ʻAsīliá ʻa Siuta (Vakai, 2 Ngaahi Tuʻi 16:8; 2 Fakamatala Meʻa Hokohoko 28:21).

ʻI he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo e Tuʻi ko Hesekaiá—ko e foha ʻo ʻĀhasí—naʻe fakafehoanaki ʻe ʻĪsaia ʻa e kau tau ʻAsīliá ki ha vaitafe ʻa ia ne fakataipe te ne lōmakiʻi ʻa e fonua ko Siutá pea “aʻu hake ki he kiá”—ko hono ʻuhingá ki he ngaahi holisi ʻo Selusalemá (2 Nīfai 18:8). Naʻe fakahoko ʻa e kikite ko ʻení ʻi he haʻu ha kau sōtia ʻAsīlia ʻe toko 185,000 ke ʻohofi ʻa Selusalema, pea nau tuʻu ʻi he ngaahi holisi ʻo e koló. Naʻe fili ʻe he Tuʻi ko Hesekaiá ke falala ki he ʻEikí mo muimui ki he akonaki ʻa ʻĪsaiá, kae ʻikai hangē ko ʻene tamai ko ʻĀhasí. Ko hono olá, naʻe maluʻi ʻe he ʻEikí ʻa e kakai ʻi Selusalemá ʻaki Haʻane fekauʻi hifo ha ʻāngelo ke fakaʻauha ʻa e kau tau ne ʻohofi kinautolú (Vakai, 2 Ngaahi Tuʻi 19:32–35).

ʻOku ʻuhinga ki he hā ʻa e ngaahi huafa ʻo e Fakamoʻuí ʻi he 2 Nīfai 19:6?

Naʻe fakamatala ʻa ʻEletā Sefilī R. Hōlani ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá ʻo pehē:

“ʻOku fakapapauʻi mai ʻe he foʻi moʻoni ko ia ʻe aʻu ʻo hilifaki ʻa e puleʻangá ʻi [he uma ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí] ʻa e meʻa ko ia ʻe fakahaaʻi ʻe he māmaní kotoa ʻi ha ʻahó—ko Ia ʻa e ʻEiki ʻo e ngaahi ʻeikí mo e Tuʻi ʻo e ngaahi tuʻí pea te ne pule tonu pē ʻi he māmaní mo hono Siasí. …

ʻI heʻene hoko ko “Fakaofó,” te ne hoko ko hotau fakalaloa, ko hotau taukapo, ʻo ne taukapoʻi ai ʻetau ngāué ʻi he fakamaauʻanga ʻo langí. …

ʻOku fakahā mai ʻe he “ʻOtua Māfimafí” ha meʻa ʻo kau ki he mālohi ʻo e ʻOtuá, ʻa e taʻe fakangatangata Hono mafimafí, pea mo e taʻemalava ke ikunaʻi hono ivi tākiekiná. …

ʻOku fakamamafaʻi ʻe he “Tamai Taʻengatá” ʻa e tefitoʻi tokāteline ko Kalaisí ko ha Tamai—ko e Tokotaha Fakatupu ʻo ha ngaahi māmani taʻefaʻalaua, ko e Tamai ʻo hono toe fokotuʻu hake ʻo e moʻui matelié ʻo fakafou he Toetuʻú, ko e Tamai ia ʻa e moʻui taʻengatá maʻa hono ngaahi foha mo e ʻofefine fakalaumālie naʻe fakatupú, pea ko e Tokotaha ʻoku fakafofonga maʻá e Tamaí (ʻElohimi) ʻo fakafou ʻi hono fakamafaiʻi fakalangí.
