ʻAlamā 32. Maʻu ʻa e Tuí ki he Folofola ʻa e ʻOtuá

• Ko ha poini tefito ʻi he ʻAlamā 32 ko e maʻu e tui ki he folofola ʻa e ʻOtuá. Naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAlamā ʻi he taimi ʻoku tō ai ʻa e folofola ʻa e ʻOtuá ʻi he kelekele lelei ʻo e lotó, ʻe kamata ke tupulaki pea tupu ia. ʻI heʻete fai ki he folofolá, pe tanumaki ia ʻi he talangofuá, ʻe ʻomai ʻe he folofola ʻa e ʻOtuá ha fua ʻoku mātuʻaki mahuʻinga, ʻoku melie ange ia ʻi ha toe meʻa ʻoku melie, hinehina ange ia ʻi ha meʻa ʻoku hinehina, pea haohaoa ange ia ʻi ha meʻa ʻoku haohaoa. ʻE ʻikai ʻomai ha fua pehē ʻi hono fakaliʻeliʻaki e folofola ʻa e ʻOtuá.

  ʻE tanumaki fēfē ʻetau tui ki he folofola [ʻa e ʻOtuá] ke tau keinanga ai ʻi he fua ko ʻení? Naʻe akonaki ʻa Palesiteni Siosefa Filitingi Sāmita (1876–1972) ʻo pehē, “Kapau ʻoku tau fie maʻu ha tui ʻoku moʻui pea tolonga, kuo pau ke tau fakahoko kakato kotoa hotau fatongia ko e mēmipa ʻo e Siasí” (Doctrines of Salvation, comp. Bruce R. McConkie, 3 vols. [1954–56], 2:311).

  Naʻe fai ʻe ʻEletā Siosefa B. Uefilini (1917–2008) ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá ha ako meimei tatau: “ ʻOku ʻi ai e tui he taimi ʻokú te falala moʻoni ai ki he meʻa ʻoku ʻikai ke tau mamata ki aí, fakataha mo e talangofua kakato ki he finangalo ʻo ʻetau Tamai Hēvaní. Ka ʻikai maʻu ʻa e tolú ni kotoa—ʻuluakí, ko e falala moʻoní; uá ngāue; pea ko e tolú, ke talangofua kakato ki he finangalo ʻo ʻetau Tamai Hēvaní—ka ʻikai maʻu ʻa e tolú ni kotoa, ta ko e fakangalingali ʻa e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku tau faí, ko ha tui ia ʻoku vaivai mo taʻeʻaonga” (ʻi he Conference Report, Oct. 2002, 89; pe Liahona, Nōvema 2002, 83).

  “ʻI he fakamatala fakaʻofoʻofa [ʻo e ʻAlamā 32], naʻe ueʻi ai ʻe ʻAlamā e kau lautohí mei ha fakamatala fakalūkufua ki he tuí ʻo fakatatau e folofola ʻa e ʻOtuá ki ha tengaʻi ʻakaú ke fakamamafaʻi ha fetalanoaʻaki ki he tui kia Kalaisí ʻa ia ko e Folofola ʻa e ʻOtuá, ʻo tupu ko ha ʻakau fua, ʻa ia ko ha fuʻu ʻakau ʻoku fua ʻo hangē tofu pē ko ia ne fakakaukau ki ai ʻa Līhai ʻi he ʻofa ʻa Kalaisí. … Ko Kalaisi ʻa e mā ʻo e moʻuí, vai ʻo e moʻuí, mo e vaine moʻoniá. Ko Kalaisi ʻa e tengaʻi ʻakaú, fuʻu ʻakaú, mo e fua ʻo e moʻui taʻengatá.

  “Ka ʻe mole ʻa e loloto mo e uho ʻo e ʻAkau ʻo e Moʻuí ʻi heʻene hā ʻi he fetalanoaʻaki ko ʻení, pe kuo liliu hano konga lahi, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai ke hokohoko atu ʻa e tokotaha laukongá ki he vahe ʻe ua hoko mai ʻi he Tohi ʻa Molomoná” (Christ and the New Covenant [1997], 169).

ʻAlamā 32:8–16. “ʻOku Monūʻia ʻa Kinautolu ʻOku Lotofakatōkilaló”

• ʻOku hōifua ʻa e ʻEikí ki he lotofakatōkilaló pea ʻokú Ne faʻa tokoniʻi kitautolu ke tau lotofakatōkilalo. Naʻe hā he ʻAlamā 32:8–16 ha founga ʻe ua ke tau hoko ai ʻo lotofakatōkilalo. ʻOku fakamatala ʻa e Veesi 13 kiate kinautolu ʻoku “fakamālohiʻi ke lotofakatōkilalo”; ʻoku fakamatala ʻa e veeesi 14 mo e 16 kiate kinautolu ʻoku lotofakatōkilalo ʻiate kinautolu peé “koeʻuhí ko e folofolá.”

• Naʻe toe fakamatala ʻa ʻEletā Kālosi E. ʻEisī (1926–99) ʻo e Kau Fitungofulú ki ha kulupu ʻe ua: “ ʻOku tokolahi hotau niʻihi ʻoku tau maʻu ʻa e ‘founga ʻa e kau Nīfaí’ ko e konga hotau ʻulungāangá. ʻOku ai ha taimi ʻoku akoʻingofua ai kitautolu; ʻoku fakaʻatā ʻe heʻetau lotofakatōkilaló ke tau aʻusia e tumutumu fakalaumālié.

ʻAlamā 34:14–17. “Tui ke Fakatomala”

• Naʻe lea ʻa ʻEletā Lōpeti E. Ueili ʻi heʻene hoko ko ha Fitungofulú ki he tui ʻoku fie maʻu ke fakahoko ʻaki ha ngaahi liliu ʻi heʻetau moʻuí ke tau ʻinasi he tāpuaki ʻo e Fakalelei ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí:

  “‘ʻOku lahi fēfē nai e tui ʻoku ou fie maʻu ke ʻaonga ai e fakalelei ʻa Kalaisí kiate aú?’ ʻI hono toe ʻai ʻe tahá, ʻoku lahi fēfē nai e tui ʻoku fie maʻu ke u maʻu hoku fakamoʻuí? ʻI he tohi ʻa ʻAlamaá … ʻoku tau maʻu ai ʻa e talí. Naʻe akoʻi ʻe he palōfita ko ʻAmulekí e tefitoʻi moʻoni faingofua mo maʻongoʻonga ko ʻení: ‘Ko e ʻAlo ʻo e ʻOtuá, … te ne ʻomi ai ha ngaahi founga ki he tangatá ke nau maʻu ai ha tui ke fakatomalá’ (ʻAlamā 34:14–15; ko e toki tānaki atu hono fakamamafaʻí).

  “Kātaki kae fakatokangaʻi ange e foʻi lea ko ʻeni ʻe tolú: tui ke fakatomalá. Ko e kiʻi tokoní ia. Naʻá ne ngāue ʻaki tuʻo fā ia ʻi ha veesi ʻe tolu [vakai, ʻAlamā 34:15–17]. …

  “ʻOku fuʻu mahuʻinga ʻa hono fakatahaʻi ʻo e tui kia Kalaisí mo e tui ke fakatomalá. ʻOku kau ia ʻi he fakakaukau maʻongoʻonga ʻoku tau maʻu ki he mahuʻinga ʻo ha tui ʻoku faingofua pea mahinongofua—tui feʻunga ke fakatomala. ʻOku pehē foki ʻoku ʻikai fie maʻu ʻa e tui feʻunga ko ia ke hiki ha moʻungá; ʻoku ʻikai fie maʻu ʻa e tui feʻunga ke lea ʻi he lea fakafonua kehekehé, pe tui ke fakamoʻui e mahakí; ko e meʻa pē ʻoku tau fie maʻú ko ha tui feʻunga ke tau fakatokangaʻi kuo tau faiangahala pea fakatomala mei heʻetau ngaahi angahalá, ke tau ongoʻi mamahi koeʻuhí ko kinautolu, pea holi ke ʻoua ʻe toe faiangahala ka ke fakahōifua kia Kalaisi ko e ʻEikí. Pea ʻe hoko leva ʻa e mana maʻongoʻonga tahá, ʻa e Fakaleleí, ʻa ia ʻoku fakahaofi ai kitautolu ʻe Kalaisi mei he ngaahi tautea naʻe totonu ke tau aʻusiá, pea naʻe fakahoko ia koeʻuhí ko kitautolu” (“The Liahona Triad,” in Bruce A. Van Orden and Brent L. Top, eds., Doctrines of the Book of Mormon: The 1991 Sperry Symposium [1992], 6–7).

ʻAlamā 34:15–16. “ ʻOku Lava ʻe he ʻAloʻofá ʻo Totongi ki he Ngaahi Tuʻutuʻuni ʻa e Fakamaau Totonú”

• ʻOku konga ua e fakamaau totonú:

  1. ʻOku ʻomai ʻe he talangofua ki he fonó ʻa e ngaahi tāpuaki ʻokú ne ʻomi e fiefiá (vakai, T&F 130:20–21).

  2. ʻOku ʻomai ʻe he talangataʻa ki he fonó ʻa e ngaahi tautea ʻokú ne ʻomi e mamahí (vakai, ʻAlamā 42:22).

• ʻOku founga ʻe ua ʻa hono fakahoko ʻo e fakamaau totonú:

  1. ʻOua naʻa maumauʻi e fonó.

  2. ʻI hoʻo maumauʻi e fonó, totongi e tauteá.

  Palopalemá: ʻOku ʻikai ke fakatonuhiaʻi ha taha fakakakano ʻi he fonó (vakai, 2 Nīfai 2:5); kuo faiangahala kotoa pē (vakai, Loma 3:23). Ko ia ai, kuo pau ke totongi ʻa e tauteá.

• ʻOku ʻi ai e nunuʻa ʻe ua ʻo e faiangahalá:

  1. ʻOku motuhi ʻa kitautolu ʻe he fono fakamāmaní—moʻua ki he fakamaau totonú (vakai, ʻAlamā 42:14).

  2. ʻOku tau mate ʻi he fono fakalaumālié—“ʻoku ʻikai lava ʻo hū ha meʻa ʻoku taʻemaʻa ki he puleʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá” (1 Nīfai 15:34).

  “ʻOkú ne ʻoatu [ʻe Sīsū] ia ke hoko ko ha feilaulau koeʻuhi ko e angahalá, ke fakakakato ʻa e ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni ʻa e fonó” (2 Nīfai 2:7).

• Naʻe kamataʻi ʻe Kalaisi ʻa e fono ʻo e ʻaloʻofa, ka naʻe anga fēfē?

  1. Naʻá Ne haohaoa ʻi hono tauhi ʻo e fonó pea naʻe ʻikai Haʻane angahala. Naʻe fakatonuhiaʻi Ia ʻe he fonó.

  2. Naʻá Ne mamahi pea totongi e tauteá ʻi he Ngoue ko Ketisemaní pea ʻi he kolosí, ʻo hangē ko ē naʻá Ne halaia ki he angahala kotoa pē ne fakahokó.

  3. Ko hotau Fakalaloa Ia ki he Tamaí (vakai, ʻAlamā 33:11; T&F 45:3–5).

ʻAlamā 34:32–34.

“ʻOua Naʻa Mou Toloi ʻa e ʻAho ʻo Hoʻomou Fakatomalá”

• ʻE lava ke uesia ʻe he fakatoloí mo e fakataʻetaʻepaú ʻetau feinga ke foki ki heʻetau Tamai Hēvaní. Naʻe akonaki ʻa Palesiteni Siosefa Filitingi Sāmita ʻo pehē, “ʻI hono ngāue ʻaki e fakatoloí ki he ngaahi tefitoʻi moʻoni ʻo e Ongoongoleleí, ʻokú ne kaihaʻasi e moʻui taʻengatá—ko e moʻui ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo e Tamaí mo e ʻAló” (The Way to Perfection [1970], 202).

  ʻAlamā 34:32–34

  Ko e hā e tuʻunga naʻe fakatokanga ki ai ʻa ʻAmuleki ki he faingataʻa ʻa e fakatomala hili ʻa e moʻui ní?

ʻAlamā 34:34–35. Ko e Laumālie Pē Ko Iá Te Ne Puleʻi Kitautolú

• Naʻe fakamahino ʻe ʻAmuleki ʻoku ʻave kitautolu ʻe heʻetau ngaahi fili fakaʻahó ke puleʻi pe tākiekina ʻe he Laumālie ʻo e ʻEikí pe ʻe he tēvoló. Naʻe fai ʻe Palesiteni Hāloti B. Lī (1899–1973) hono fakamatalaʻi ko ʻeni ʻo e ʻAlamā 34:35: “Ko kinautolu ko ia ne mate ʻi he angahalá, ʻo teʻeki ai ke fakatomalá, ʻoku pehē ʻi he ngaahi folofolá ʻe maʻu kinautolu ʻe he tēvoló maʻana (vakai, ʻAlamā 34:35), ʻa ia ʻoku ʻuhinga ia ko ʻenau toki lava pē ke totongi e taupotu taha e tautea ki he meʻa ne nau faí, ko hono toki huhuʻi ia kinautolu mei he haʻi ʻa e tēvoló. ʻI hono tuku kinautolu ʻi ha taimi feʻunga ke fehangahangai mo e ngaahi matangi mālohi ʻa Sētané pea feʻunga ke fakafiemālieʻi ʻa e fakamaau totonú, ʻe fakahaofi kinautolu mei he haʻi ko ʻeni ʻa Sētané pea vahe ki he maama fakasilesitiale, telesitiale mo e tilesitiale ʻa ʻetau Tamaí ʻa ia ʻoku makatuʻunga ia mei heʻenau moʻui ʻi he māmani ko ʻení” (The Teachings of Harold B. Lee, ed. Clyde J. Williams [1996], 59).

• Naʻe fakamamafaʻi ʻe ʻEletā Melivini J. Pālati (1873–1939) ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá e mahuʻinga ʻo e fakatomala lolotonga e nofo ʻi māmaní:

  “Ko e moʻuí ni ko e taimi ia ke fakatomala ai ʻa e tangatá. ʻOua naʻa fakakaukau ha taha ʻo kitautolu te tau mālōlō ki he faʻitoká ʻoku teʻeki ai ke tau lavaʻi ʻa e ngaahi fehālaaki ʻo e kakanó pea pehē ʻe mole ʻi he faʻitoká ʻa ʻetau ngaahi angahalá mo e ngaahi tākiekina ki he koví. Te nau ʻiate kitautolu. Te nau fakataha mo e laumālié ʻi he taimi ʻe mavahe ai mei he sinó.

  “… ʻI he [moʻui fakamatelié] ko e taimi ia ʻoku faingofua ange ai ke liliu mo takiekina e tangatá” (The Three Degrees of Glory: A Discourse [Sept. 22, 1922], 11–12).

ʻAlamā 35. Ko Hono Lekooti ʻo e Tau ʻa e Kau Nīfai-Leimaná ʻi he ʻAlamā 43–62

• ʻI hono fakahokohokó, ʻoku hoko atu ʻa e, ʻAlamā 43 ʻi he ʻAlamā 35. “Ko ʻeni ko ʻAlamā, naʻá ne loto mamahi lahi ko e tupu ʻi he fai hia ʻa hono kakaí, ʻio koeʻuhí ko e ngaahi taú, mo e lilingi totó,” naʻa ne fakatahaʻi mai hono ngahi fohá “takitaha” ke ne fakahā “ʻa e ngaahi meʻa ʻoku kau ki he māʻoniʻoní” (ʻAlamā 35:15–16). Naʻe fakatokanga fakahangatonu mai ʻe Molomona ʻa ʻene poupou mālohi ki he ngaahi lea ʻa ʻAlamā ki hono ngaahi fohá, kia Hilamani, Sipiloni, mo Kolianitoni—kimuʻa peá ne foki ki he “fakamatala ʻo e ngaahi tau ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo e kau Nīfaí mo e kau Leimaná” (ʻAlamā 43:3; fakafehoanaki e ngaahi ʻaho ʻi lalo he ngaahi peesi ʻo e ʻAlamā 35 mo e ʻAlamā 43).

  ʻOku fakamatala ʻa e ʻAlamā 35 ki he meʻa ne tupunga ai e tau ʻa e kau Leimaná mo e kau Nīfaí, ʻa ia ʻoku fakakau kotoa ia ʻi he vahe 43–62. Ko e ngaahi fekeʻikeʻí pea aʻu ki he taú ʻoku toʻo kongokonga lalahi ia mei he ʻAlamā 35:

  1. Ko e “kau Sōlami tuʻukimuʻa tahá … naʻa nau ʻita koeʻuhí ko e folofolá, he naʻe fakaʻauha ʻe ia ʻa ʻenau ngāué [ngāue fakataulaʻeiki kākaá]” (veesi 3).

  2. Ko e kau Sōlami ko ia naʻe uluí, “naʻe kapusi ki tuʻa mei he fonuá; pea naʻa nau tokolahi” (veesi 6), naʻa nau ʻalu pea nau nofo mo e kakai ʻo Selesoní (kakai ʻo ʻĀmoní). Naʻe fafangaʻi kinautolu, fakakofuʻi pea foaki ange mo ha ngaahi konga kelekele ke hoko ko honau tofiʻa, pea naʻe feau ʻenau ngaahi fie maʻú kotoa (vakai, veesi 9). Naʻe lau kinautolu ʻi he fonua ne nau ʻi ai kimuʻá ko e masiva, meʻa ʻuli mo taʻeʻaonga (vakai, ʻAlamā 32:2–3).

  3. Naʻe hoko e angaʻofa ʻa e kakai ʻo Selesoní ʻi hono tali e kau ului foʻoú ko ha meʻa fakatupu ʻita ki he kau Sōlamí (vakai, ʻAlamā 35:8). Naʻe fai ʻe he pule lahi ʻo e kau Sōlamí ha “ngaahi lea fakamanamana lahi kiate kinautolu” (veesi 9). “Naʻe ʻikai manavahē ʻa e kakai ʻo ʻĀmoní” (veesi 9), naʻe ueʻi hake ʻe he meʻá ni ke toe ʻita lahi ange ʻa e kau Sōlamí mo honau takí .

  4. Naʻe “kamata ke fetuʻutaki [e kau Sōlami naʻe ʻikai ke uluí] mo e kau Leimaná, ʻo nau ueʻi hake mo kinautolu foki ke nau ʻita” ki he kakai ʻo ʻĀmoní, ʻa ia ko ha kau Leimana ne ului (veesi 10; vakai foki, ʻAlamā 43:6–7).

  Ko e ngaahi meʻa ne hokó ʻa ia ne lekooti ʻi he ʻAlamā 35 ʻoku hā ai e founga ne kamata ai e tau ʻa e kau Nīfaí mo e kau Leimaná ʻi ha taimi lōloá ʻa ia ʻoku lekooti ʻi he ʻAlamā 43–62. Naʻe ueʻi ʻe Sētane e loto ʻo e kau Sōlamí ke ʻita (vakai, 2 Nīfai 28:20). Naʻa nau takiekina ai e kau Leimana mo e kau Nīfai angatuʻú ke nau ʻita pea tauʻi ʻa kinautolu naʻe faileleí.
