Ngaahi Maʻuʻanga Tokoni Kehe
Ko e tokāteline ʻa Kalaisí
Naʻe akoʻi ʻe ʻEletā Sefilī R. Hōlani: “ʻOku nofotaha ʻa e ‘tokāteline ʻa Kalaisí’ hangē ko hono akoʻi ʻe Nīfai ʻi heʻene lea maʻongoʻonga mo fakaʻosí ki he tui ki he ʻEiki ko Sīsū Kalaisí, fakatomalá, papitaiso ʻi he fakaukú, maʻu ʻo e meʻafoaki ʻo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní, mo e kātaki ki he ngataʻangá. ʻOku ʻikai ke fai ha feinga heni ke fakamatalaʻi fakakātoa ʻa e palani ʻo e fakamoʻuí, ʻa e ngaahi ʻulungaanga lelei kotoa ʻo e moʻui faka-Kalisitiané, pe ko e ngaahi fakapale ʻoku fakatatali mai maʻatautolu ʻi he ngaahi naunau fakalangi kehekehé. ʻOku ʻikai lave ia heni ki he ngaahi lakanga ʻi he lakanga fakataulaʻeikí, ngaahi ouau ʻo e temipalé, pe ngaahi akonaki moʻoni kehe pē. ʻOku mahuʻinga kotoa e ngaahi meʻá ni, kae hangē ko hono fakaʻaongaʻi ʻi he Tohi ʻa Molomoná, ʻoku faingofua mo hangatonu ʻa e ‘akonaki ʻa Kalaisí.’ ʻOku nofo taha pē ia [ki he ngaahi ʻuluaki tefitoʻi moʻoni ʻo e ongoongoleleí] ʻi hono fai ʻa e fakalotolahi ke faʻa kātaki, tuʻu maʻu, ke laka ki muʻa. Ko hono moʻoní, ko e mahino mo e faingofua ʻo e ‘tokāteline ʻa Kalaisí’ ʻoku maʻu ai hono mālohí” (Christ and the New Covenant: The Messianic Message of the Book of Mormon [1997], 49–50).
Naʻe pehē ʻe ʻEletā D. Toti Kulisitofasoni: ʻOku ou fokotuʻu atu ki he taha kotoa … ke ne fekumi ʻi he lotu mo e ako folofola ki he fakamoʻoni tatau ʻo e natula fakalangi, Fakalelei, pea mo e Toetuʻu ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí.

Kātaki ki he ikuʻangá.
Naʻe fakamatala ʻa Palesiteni Tieta F. ʻUkitofa ʻo pehē:
“ʻI heʻeku kei tamasiʻi siʻí, naʻe ʻuhinga ʻa e ‘kātaki ki he ngataʻangá’ kiate au pē ne pau ke u feinga mālohi ange ke ʻāʻā ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga ʻo e ngaahi fakatahaʻanga hotau Siasí.

“… Ko e kātaki ki he ngataʻangá ʻoku ʻikai ko ha meʻa fakafiefiemālie pē ʻi hono kātakiʻi e ngaahi tūkunga faingataʻa ʻo e moʻuí pe ‘kītakí.’ ʻOku longomoʻui ʻetau tui fakalotú he tokoniʻi e fānau ʻa e ʻOtuá ke nau fou he hala hangatonu mo fāsiʻí ke fakatupulaki ʻenau moʻuí ke toe foki kiate Ia. ʻI heʻetau vakai ki ai mei hení, ʻoku pau mo nāunauʻia e kātaki ki he ikuʻanga, kae ʻikai taʻepau mo fakamamahi. Ko ha tui fakalotu ʻeni ʻo e fiefia, ʻamanaki lelei, mo e fakahaofi. …
“ʻOku ʻuhinga mai e kātaki ki he ikuʻangá ke ‘fakakukafi maʻu ai pē ʻi he fai leleí’ (Loma 2:7), ʻo fāifeinga ke tauhi e ngaahi fekaú (vakai, 2 Nīfai 31:10), mo fakahoko e ngaahi ngāue ʻo e māʻoniʻoní (vakai, TF 59:23)” (“Have We Not Reason to Rejoice?” Ensign pe Liahona, Nov. 2007, 20).
