Study the Principle of Learning: Exercise Faith in Jesus Christ

Ngāue ʻaki ʻa e Tui kia Sīsū Kalaisí

Jesus Christ can help me do all things as I exercise faith in Him.

ʻE lava ke tokoniʻi au ʻe Sīsū Kalaisi ke u fai ʻa e meʻa kotoa pē ʻi heʻeku ngāue ʻaki ʻa e tui kiate Iá.

ʻOku tau ako ʻi he Tohi Tapú, ki ha fefine naʻe puke ʻi ha ngaahi taʻu lahi. Naʻá ne fakamoleki kotoa ʻene paʻangá ʻi he feinga ke maʻu ha faitoʻo. Naʻá ne ʻosi ʻalu ki ha kau toketā tokolahi, ka naʻe toe kovi ange ʻene puké. Naʻe fanongo leva ʻa e fefiné ʻia Sīsū. Naʻá ne mamata kiate ia ʻi ha haʻofanga kakai. Naʻá ne tui naʻe maʻu ʻe Sīsū ʻa e mālohi ke fakamoʻui ia. Naʻá ne tui kapau te ne lava pē ʻo ala ki hono kofú, ʻe fakamoʻui ia. Naʻá ne lue mai ʻi he tuʻa ʻo Sīsuú ʻo ala ki Hono kofú. Naʻá ne ongoʻi naʻe fakamoʻui hono sinó. Naʻe ongoʻi ʻe Sīsū e mavahe ʻa e mālohí mei Hono sinó. ʻI Heʻene fehuʻi pe ko hai naʻe ala ki Hono kofú, naʻá ne tomuʻa ilifia ke fakahā ko ia, ka naʻá ne toki talaange leva ko ia.

Naʻe folofola ange ʻa Sīsū, “Ke ke fiemālie: kuo fakamoʻui koe ʻe hoʻo tuí; ʻalu ʻo fiemālie” (Luke 8:48).

Naʻe tui ʻa e fefiné ni, peá ne ngāue ʻi he tui. Ko ha kiʻi ngāue siʻisiʻi pē ʻa e ala kia Sīsuú, ka naʻe ʻomi ai Hono mālohí ki heʻene moʻuí. ʻOku ʻikai fiemaʻu ke ke ongoʻi mā pe ilifia ke kole tokoni ki he ʻOtuá. ʻOkú Ne fie tokoniʻi koe. ʻI hoʻo fakaʻaongaʻi ʻa e tuí, naʻa mo e fanga kiʻi founga īkí, ʻe lava ke ne ʻomi e mālohi ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí ki hoʻo moʻuí.
