Ko e hā naʻe tupu ai ʻa e Hē Fakaʻaufuli mei he Moʻoní?
Hili e pekia mo e Toetuʻu ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí, naʻe hokohoko atu hono tataki ʻe Heʻene Kau ʻAposetoló ʻa e Siasí ʻi heʻene tupulakí. Naʻe fakamatalaʻi ʻe Palesiteni M. Lāsolo Pālati ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá ʻa e founga naʻe faifai pē pea tō ai ʻa e Siasi ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí ki he hē mei he moʻoní ʻo pehē:
ʻOku fakahaaʻi ʻe he Fuakava Foʻoú naʻe ngāue mālohi ʻa e fuofua Kau ʻAposetoló ke tauhi e siasi ne tuku ʻe Sīsū Kalaisi ke nau tokangaʻi mo tauhí, ka naʻa nau ʻiloʻi ʻe iku taʻeʻaonga ʻenau ngaahi ngāué. Naʻe tohi ʻa Paula ki he Kāingalotu Tesaloniká, ʻa ia naʻa nau tatali loto-vēkeveke e hāʻele ʻanga ua mai ʻa Kalaisí, “ʻe ʻikai hoko ʻa e ʻaho ko iá, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai tomuʻa hoko ʻa e liliu kovi” (2 Tesalonika 2:3). …
Ne faifai pē pea fakapoongi ʻa Pita mo hono ngaahi kaungā ʻAposetoló tuku kehe ʻa Sione ʻOfeina ʻo hangē ʻoku tau ʻiló. Naʻe fāinga ʻa e ʻAposetolo ko Sioné mo e kau mēmipa ʻo e Siasí ke nau kei hokohoko atu ʻi heʻenau fehangahangai mo e ngaahi fakafepaki fakalilifú. ʻE fakalangilangiʻi taʻengata ai pē kinautolu, he naʻe hokohoko atu e tui faka-Kalisitiané pea hoko ia ko ha mālohi lahi ʻi he fakaʻosinga ʻo e senituli hono ua A.D. Naʻe ʻaonga lahi ha kāingalotu loto-toʻa tokolahi ʻi hono paotoloaki e tui faka-Kalisitiané.
Neongo e ngāue fakafaifekau mahuʻinga ʻa e Kāingalotu ko ʻení, ka naʻe ʻikai ke nau maʻu e mafai fakaeʻaposetolo tatau naʻe maʻu ʻe Pita mo e Kau ʻAposetolo kehé ʻo fakafou ʻi hono fakanofo ʻe he toʻukupu tonu ʻo e ʻEiki ko Sīsū Kalaisí. ʻI he mole ʻa e mafai ko iá, ne kamata ke fekumi e faʻahinga ʻo e tangatá ki ha mahino fakatokāteline ʻi he ngaahi maʻuʻanga tokoni kehé. Ko hono olá ne mole ai ha ngaahi moʻoni mahinongofua mo mahuʻinga. (M. Russell Ballard, “Restored Truth,” Ensign, Nov. 1994, 65–66)
Naʻe mamata ʻa e palōfita ko Nīfaí ki he Hē Fakaʻaufuli mei he Moʻoní ʻi ha mata meʻa-hā-mai. Naʻá ne mamata ʻe hanga ʻe he kakai fai angahalá ʻo “toʻo mei he ongoongolelei ʻa e Lamí ha ngaahi konga lahi ʻa ia ʻoku mahinongofua mo mahuʻinga taha; kae ʻumaʻā foki mo e ngaahi fuakava ʻa e ʻEikí kuo nau toʻo mei ai” ʻi he lolotonga ʻo e hē ko ʻeni mei he moʻoní (1 Nīfai 13:26). Naʻá ne mamata foki ki “ha ngaahi konga lahi ʻoku mahinongofua mo mahuʻinga [ʻe] toʻo” mei he Tohi Tapú lolotonga e Hē Fakaʻaufuli mei he Moʻoní (1 Nīfai 13:28). Naʻe talaange ʻe ha ʻāngelo kia Nīfai, “Koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi meʻa ko ia ʻa ia kuo toʻo mei he ongoongolelei ʻa e Lamí, ʻoku tūkia ai ha fuʻu kakai tokolahi ʻaupito, ʻio, ʻoku maʻu ai ʻe Sētane ʻa e mālohi lahi kiate kinautolu” (1 Nīfai 13:29).

Naʻe hoko e fakatanga fakalotú ke tupu ai ha kumi ʻe ha tokolahi ʻo e niʻihi ko ʻení mo ha niʻihi fakafoʻituitui kehe ha feituʻu foʻou ʻe lava ke nau moihū tauʻatāina ai, ʻo kau ai e kau Pilikimí, ʻa ia naʻa nau tuku folau mei ʻIngilani ki he ongo ʻAmeliká ʻi he kamataʻanga ʻo e 1600 tupú. Naʻe mamata ʻa e palōfita ko Nīfaí ʻi ha meʻa-hā-mai ki he kau fokotuʻu lotu foʻou ko ʻení ʻa ia ʻe faifai pē pea nau nofo ʻi ʻAmeliká.

Ne kau ʻi he kau sōtia naʻe tau maʻa ʻAmeliká ʻa ʻAsaeli Sāmita. ʻOku ʻiloa ʻa ʻAsaeli, ko e kui tangata ʻa e Palōfita ko Siosefa Sāmitá ʻi he tafaʻaki ʻene tamaí, ʻi haʻane lea ʻe taha ʻo pehē, “Kuo ueʻi fakalaumālie hoku lotó ʻe fai ʻe ha taha ʻo hoku hakó ha ngāue ke liliu e māmani ʻo e tui fakalotú” (Joseph Fielding Smith, Church History and Modern Revelation, 2 vols. [1953], 1:4). Naʻe mamata tonu ʻa ʻAsaeli ki hono faʻu ʻo ha puleʻanga foʻou, ʻo fakatefito ʻi he tauʻatāina fakalotú.
Naʻe akoʻi ʻe ʻEletā Lōpeti D. Heili ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá ko hono fokotuʻu ʻo e ʻIunaiteti Siteiti ʻo ʻAmeliká, ko ha sitepu ia ʻi hono teuteuʻi ʻo e māmaní ki hono Toe Fakafoki Mai ʻo e ongoongoleleí.
Naʻe tataki ʻe he ongo fakalotú ʻa kinautolu naʻa nau fokotuʻu ha puleʻanga foʻou ʻi he konitinēniti ʻAmeliká. ʻI he toʻukupu ʻo e ʻOtuá, ne nau fokotuʻu mo maluʻi ai e tauʻatāina fakalotu ʻa e tangataʻi fonuá ʻaki e Totonu ʻa e Tangatá (Bill of Rights).

… ʻOku ou fakamoʻoni kuo kau e toʻukupu [ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí] ʻi he ngāue kotoa ʻo hono Toe Fakafoki Mai ʻo e ongoongoleleí talu mei muʻa ʻi hono ʻai ʻa e ngaahi tuʻunga ʻo e māmaní. (Robert D.

Naʻe akoʻi ʻe Palesiteni M. Lāsolo Pālati ʻo pehē:
Naʻe faingataʻaʻia fakapaʻanga ʻa Siosefa Sāmita ko e Lahí, ʻa e tamai ʻa e palōfitá. … [Naʻá ne] hoa ngāue pisinisi mo ha taha. Naʻe ʻave ʻe hono hoa ngāue fakapisinisí ʻa e paʻangá pea mole ai.

Naʻe faifai pea hiki ʻa Siosefa Sāmita ko e Lahí ki Palemaila. Naʻe ngāue e toʻukupu ʻo e ʻEikí, ʻo hiki ʻa e fāmili Sāmitá ki he feituʻu naʻá Ne finangalo ke nau ʻi aí. (M.
