Sione 2:1–11

Naʻe fakahaaʻi ʻe he ngaahi mana ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí ʻa “hono nāunaú.”

Naʻe fakahaaʻi fēfē ʻe he mana ko ʻení ʻa e nāunau ʻo e ʻOtuá? (vakai, veesi 11).

Te tau lava ʻo maluʻi ʻa e ngaahi feituʻu mo e ngaahi meʻa toputapú.

Te tau lava fēfē ʻo tokoni ke maluʻi hono molumalu ʻo e ngaahi meʻa toputapu ko ʻení?

Kuo pau ke fanauʻi foʻou kitautolu kae lava ke tau hū ki he puleʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá.

Fakakaukau ke fakaafeʻi ʻa e kau mēmipa ʻo e kalasí ke nau akoako mo e tokotaha ʻoku tangutu ʻi hono tafaʻakí, ʻa e founga te nau tali ʻaki e fehuʻi ko ʻení. ʻI heʻenau fai iá, te nau lava ʻo aleaʻi ha ngaahi fehuʻi hangē ko ʻení: Ko e hā ʻoku tau ako mei he folofola ʻa Sīsū ʻi he Sione 3:3–7? ʻOku tokoni fēfē ʻa e fakatomalá, papitaisó, mo e hilifakinimá ke toe fanauʻi foʻou kitautolú? ʻE ala tokoni ʻa e fakamatala ʻi he “Ngaahi Maʻuʻanga Tokoni Kehé” ki he fealeaʻaki ko ʻení.

Neongo ia, ka ʻoku hoko ʻa Nikotīmasi ko ha sīpinga ʻo ha taha naʻe liliu tupu mei he muimui ki he ongoongolelei ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí.

Sione 4:5–34

ʻOku foaki mai ʻe Sīsū Kalaisi ʻa e “vai moʻui” mo e “meʻakai” ʻi hono fai e ngāue ʻa e ʻOtuá.

• ʻOku fie maʻu fakaʻaho ʻe hotau sinó ʻa e meʻakai mo e vai. Naʻe ʻuhinga ʻa Sīsū ki he ngaahi fiemaʻu fakaemāmani lahí ni ʻi Heʻene fakatou akoʻi ʻa e fefine Samēliá mo ʻEne kau ākongá (vakai, Sione 4:5–34).

  ʻOku foaki mai ʻe Sīsū Kalaisi ʻa e vai ʻo e moʻuí kiate kitautolu.

Kumi fakakalasi, ki he ngaahi lea naʻe ngāue ʻaki ʻe he fefine Samēliá fekauʻaki mo e Fakamoʻuí ʻi he Sione 4:6–30.

Ngaahi Maʻuʻanga Tokoni Kehé

Ko hono ʻuhinga ʻo e toe fanauʻi foʻoú.

Naʻe akoʻi ʻe ʻEletā Tēvita A. Petinā ʻo pehē: “Ko e uluí … ko ha fuʻu liliu lahi, kae ʻikai ko ha meʻa siʻi—ko ha fanauʻi foʻou fakalaumālie mo ha liliu mahuʻinga ʻi he meʻa ʻoku tau ongoʻi mo fie maʻú, ʻi heʻetau fakakaukaú mo ia ʻoku tau faí, pea mo kitautolu. ʻOku fakahoko moʻoni ʻe he ʻelito ʻo e ongoongolelei ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí ha liliu mahuʻinga mo fakaʻaufuli ʻi hotau angá pea ʻoku malava ia tuʻunga ʻi heʻetau falala ki he ʻngaahi ngāue māʻoniʻoni, mo e ʻaloʻofa, mo e manavaʻofa ʻa e Mīsaia Māʻoniʻoní’ (2 Nīfai 2:8). ʻI heʻetau fili ke muimui ki he ʻEikí, ʻoku tau fili ai ke liliu—ke toe fanauʻi foʻou fakalaumālie” (“Ye Must Be Born Again,” Liahona, May 2007, 20).

Naʻe akoʻi ʻe Palesiteni Tāleni H. ʻOakesi: “Naʻe fanauʻi foʻou kitautolu ʻi heʻetau fai e fuakava mo hotau Fakamoʻuí ʻi he fanauʻi kitautolu ʻi he vai pea mo e Laumālié pea mo ʻetau ʻai kiate kitautolu ʻa e huafa ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí. Te tau lava ʻo fakafoʻou ʻa e fanauʻi foʻou ko iá ʻi he Sāpate takitaha ʻi he taimi ʻoku tau maʻu ai ʻa e sākalamēnití. ʻOku fakapapauʻi ʻe he Kāingalotú, ko kinautolu kuo fanauʻi foʻou ʻi he founga ko ʻení ko e ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine ia kuo fakatupu fakalaumālile ʻo Sīsū Kalaisi (vakai, Mōsaia 5:7; 15:9–13; 27:25). Neongo ia, kuo pau ke tau kei tauhi pē ʻetau ngaahi fuakavá mo kātaki ki he ngataʻangá, kae lava ke tau ʻiloʻi ʻa e ngaahi tāpuaki ne fakataumuʻa ki he tuʻunga fanauʻi foʻou ko ʻení” “Have You Been Saved?,” Ensign, May 1998, 56).
