Naʻe fakamatalaʻi ʻe Samuela ko e tangata Leimaná ʻa e faikehekehe ʻi he mate fakaesinó, ʻuluaki mate fakalaumālié, mo e mate fakalaumālie hono uá pea pehē ki he founga ʻoku tokoniʻi ai kitautolu ʻe he Fakalelei ʻa e Fakamoʻuí ke tau ikunaʻi ʻa e ngaahi mate ko ʻení. Ne ʻosi akoʻi foki ʻe he kau palōfitá mo e kau taki kehe ʻo e Siasí ʻa e ngaahi moʻoni ko ʻení.

Mate fakaesinó Naʻe akoʻi ʻe ʻEletā ʻEla C. Naʻe akoʻi ʻe ʻEletā ʻEli C. Tingei ʻo e Kau Fitungofulú:

“Ko e mate fakaesinó ko e fakamavaeʻi ia ʻo e laumālié mei he sinó. Pea tuʻunga ʻi he Hinga ʻa ʻĀtamá, ʻe foua ai ʻe he faʻahinga kotoa ʻo e tangatá ʻa e maté” (“Ko e Palani Lahi ʻo e Fiefiá,” Ensign pe Liahona, Mē 2006, 73).

Ko e ʻuluaki mate fakalaumālié. Ko e mate fakalaumālié ko e “motuhi … mei he ʻao ʻo e [ʻEikí]” ( ʻAlamā 42:9).

Naʻe fakamatalaʻi ʻe Palesiteni Sipenisā W. Kimipolo ko e mate fakaesinó mo e ʻuluaki mate fakalaumālié ko e nunuʻa ia ʻo e Hinga ʻa ʻĀtama mo ʻIví:

“Naʻe talangataʻa ʻetau ʻuluaki mātuʻá, ʻa ʻĀtama mo ʻIvi. ʻI heʻena kai ʻa e fuaʻi ʻakau naʻe tapuí, naʻá na hoko ai ʻo matelie.

Naʻe fuofua fakahoko ʻa e mate fakalaumālié ki māmani ʻe he Hinga ʻa ʻĀtama mo ʻIví. Koeʻuhí ʻoku fāʻeleʻi kitautolu ki ha māmani kuo hinga, ʻoku tau maʻu ai ʻa e tūkunga ko ʻení—ʻoku fakamavaheʻi kitautolu mei he ʻao ʻo e ʻOtuá. Naʻe ui ʻe Samuela ko e tangata Leimaná ʻa e tūkunga ko ʻení ko e “ʻuluaki maté” (Hilamani 14:16).

Naʻe akoʻi ʻe Samuela ko e tangata Leimaná ʻe ikunaʻi ʻe he fānau kotoa ʻa e Tamai Hēvaní ʻoku moʻui ʻi he matelié ʻa e mate fakaesinó mo e mate fakalaumālié tuʻunga ʻi he mālohi ʻo e Fakalelei ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí (vakai, Hilamani 14:17). ʻOku lahi mo ha ngaahi potufolofola kehe ʻoku nau fakamoʻoniʻi ʻa e foʻi moʻoni ko ʻení (vakai, 2 Nīfai 2:9–10; 9:15, 22, 38; ʻAlamā 11:43–44; 12:12–15, 24; 42:23; 3 Nīfai 26:4–5).

Ka ko kinautolu ʻoku ʻikai ke nau fakatomalá, ʻe “toe hoko kiate kinautolu ha mate fakalaumālie, ʻio, ko ha mate ʻanga ua, he ʻoku toe motuhi atu ʻa kinautolu ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku kau ki he māʻoniʻoní” (Hilamani 14:18). ʻOku ʻuhinga ʻeni he ʻikai lava ha taha ʻoku teʻeki fakaleleiʻi ʻene angahalá ke nofo ʻi he ʻao ʻo e ʻOtuá ʻi he hili hono fakafoki mai kiate Ia ke fakamāuʻí.

Ne fakamatalaʻi ʻe ʻEletā Lāsolo M. Nalesoni ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá ʻa e tūkunga ko ʻení:

“Ka hoko mai e mate fakaesinó kuo teʻeki fai hano fakatonutonu ʻo ha ngaahi fehālaaki fakaeangamaʻa, ʻe mole e faingamālie ke fai ai ha fakatomalá. Ko ia ai, ‘ko e huhu [moʻoni] ʻo e maté ko e angahalá.’ (1 Kolinitō 11:26.)
