“ʻOku Taau mo e Lamí”

Painting of Jesus Christ in America, greeting Nephites.

‘Oku ke pehē ko e hā hono ʻuhinga ʻo e moihū ki he Tamai Hēvaní mo Sīsū Kalaisí? ʻOkú ke pehē ko e hā hono ʻuhinga ʻoku tau hū ai kiate Kinauá? Naʻe mamata ʻa Sione ki he taloni ʻo e ʻOtuá mo e kakai nāunauʻia kehekehe ʻoku nau fakahīkihikiʻi mo hū kiate Ia. ʻE lava ke tokoni atu ʻa e lēsoni ko ʻení ke fakatupulaki hoʻo holi ke moihū ki he Tamai Hēvaní mo Sīsū Kalaisi ʻi he ʻofa mo e loto-fakamātoato ange.

Ko e taloni ʻo e ʻOtuá

Kumi ha himi ʻokú ne fakamanatu atu ʻa e nāunau, mālohi, mo e ʻofa ʻa e ʻOtuá. ʻOku fakahaaʻi fēfē ʻe he himi ko ʻení hoʻo ngaahi ongo ki he Tamai Hēvaní mo Sīsū Kalaisí?

  • Ko e hā ʻokú ke ʻilo fekauʻaki mo e Tamai Hēvaní mo Sīsū Kalaisi ʻokú ne ueʻi ʻi ho lotó ha holi moʻoni ke moihū kiate Kinaua?

ʻI he taimi ʻoku tau moihū ai ki he Tamai Hēvaní mo Sīsū Kalaisí, ʻoku tau foaki kiate Kinaua ʻetau ʻofá, ʻapasiá, mo e ngāue tokoní (vakai ki he Ngaahi Tefito ʻo e Ongoongoleleí, “Moihuú,” topics.ChurchofJesusChrist.org). ʻE lava ke fakahoko ʻe he moihū ki he Tamai Hēvaní mo Sīsū Kalaisí ha liliu mahuʻinga ʻi heʻetau moʻuí pea tokoniʻi kitautolu ke tau ongoʻi ofi ange kiate Kinaua.

  • Ko e hā ha ngaahi faingamālie ‘oku ke maʻu ke ke hū ai ki he Tamaí mo e ʻAló?

Tuku ha kiʻi miniti ke ke fakakaukau ki he lahi ‘o e taimi ‘oku ke moihū ai ki he Tamai Hēvaní pea mo Sīsū Kalaisí. Fakakaukau ki he founga ʻe liliu ai hoʻo moʻuí kapau te ke toutou moihū kiate Kinaua pea mahuʻingamālie ange hoʻo moihuú. Fekumi ki he ivi tākiekina ʻo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní ʻi hoʻo ako ʻa e Fakahā 5 ke ʻiloʻi e founga te ke lava ai ʻo lotu fakamātoato ange ki he Tamai Hēvaní mo Sīsū Kalaisí.

ʻOku Taau mo e Lamí

A modern replica of an ancient papyrus scroll, folded and sealed with multiple clay seals. Sealing an ancient document in this way identified its owner and his authority, made the document legally binding, and protected it from unauthorized disclosure. Jesus Christ’s role as the only person worthy to open and read the sealed book in Revelation 5 highlights His authority as the executor of God’s plan of salvation.

Naʻe mamata ʻa Sione ʻi heʻene mata meʻa-hā-maí ki he taloni ʻo e ʻOtuá ʻi he puleʻanga fakasilesitialé. Naʻe ʻātakaiʻi ʻa e taloní ‘aki ha kakai nāunauʻia mo ha fanga manu kehekehe ʻoku nau fakahikihikiʻi mo moihū ki he ʻOtuá (vakai ki he Fakahā 4:1–11). Naʻá ne mamata ki he Tamai Hēvaní ʻoku ʻafio ʻi Hono taloníi, ʻokú Ne toʻo ha tohi kuo fakamaʻu ʻaki ha meʻa fakamaʻu ʻe fitu (vakai ki he Fakahā 5:1). Naʻe ʻi he tohí ʻa e finangalo, ngaahi meʻa lilo, mo e ngaahi ngāue ʻa e ʻOtuá lolotonga e taʻu ʻe 7,000 ʻo e moʻui fakamatelie ʻa e māmaní (vakai ki he Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 77:6–7).

Lau ʻa e Fakahā 5:2–4 , ʻo kumi ki he fakafōtunga ʻa Sioné.

  • Ko e hā naʻá ke fakatokangaʻí?

  • Koeʻuhí ʻoku fakafofongaʻi ʻe he tohi ʻoku ʻi ai e ngaahi meʻa fakamaʻú ʻa e hisitōlia fakatuʻasino ʻo e māmaní, mahalo naʻe hohaʻa ʻa Sione kapau ʻoku ʻikai ha tangata ʻe moʻui taau ke fakaava ia, he ʻikai leva ke hoko e taumuʻa ʻa e ʻOtuá ki hono faʻu ʻo e māmaní. Ko e hā nai ʻe hoko ki he fānau ʻa e Tamai Hēvaní kapau naʻe ʻikai lava ke fakahoko ʻEne palani ki honau fakamoʻuí?

Lau ʻa e Fakahā 5:5–7 , ‘o kumi e ʻuhinga naʻe ‘ikai fiemaʻu ai ke tangi ʻa Sioné. Fakatokangaʻi ange ʻi he Liliu ʻa Siosefa Sāmita ʻo e veesi 6 , naʻe liliu e fitú ki he hongofulu mā ua (‘i he Fakalahi ki he Liliu ʻa Siosefa Sāmitá).

Fakatokangaʻi e fakamatala ʻa Sione ki he Fakamoʻuí. Manatuʻi naʻe akonaki ʻa Sione ʻo fakafou ʻi he ngaahi fakataipé. Vakai ki he konga “Fili pē: Fie Ako Lahi Ange?” ki ha fakamatala lahi ange fekauʻaki mo e ngaahi fakataipe ko ʻení.

Lau ʻa e Fakahā 5:8–14 , ʻo kumi e founga naʻe fakafōtunga ʻaki ʻe he kakai nāunauʻia kehekehé ʻa e taimi naʻe lava ai ʻe Sīsū Kalaisi ʻo toʻo ʻa e tohí mei he toʻukupu ʻo e Tamai Hēvaní. Te ke lava foki ʻo lau ʻa e founga naʻe fakamatalaʻi ai ʻe Siosefa Sāmitá ʻa e faʻahinga ‘oku nofo takai ʻi he ʻafioʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá ʻi he Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 76:20–21 .

  • ʻOkú ke pehē ko e hā naʻe fakafōtunga ai ‘a e kakai nāunauʻiá ni ʻi he founga ko ʻení?

  • Fakakaukauloto pē naʻá ke ‘i ai. ʻOkú ke pehē ko e hā e ongo naʻá ke mei maʻú? Ko e hā e meʻa naʻá ke mei faí?

  • Ko e hā te tau lava ʻo ako mei he founga naʻe moihū ai ʻa e kakai nāunauʻiá ki he Tamai Hēvaní mo Sīsū Kalaisí?

Ko hai ʻa e “Laione ʻo e faʻahinga ʻo Siutá” mo e “Aka ʻo Tēvitá”?

Ko e ongo kupuʻi lea fakatouʻosi ko ʻení ko e huafa ia ʻo Sīsū Kalaisi. “Ko e laione ʻo e hako ʻo Siutá” ko ha huafa totonu ia koeʻuhí ʻoku fakaʻeiʻeiki mo mālohi ʻa e laioné pea koʻeuhí naʻe ʻaloʻi e Fakamoʻuí ʻo fakafou ʻi he hako ʻo Siutá (vakai ki he Sēnesi 49:8–10 ; Mātiu 1:3 ; Hepelū 7:14).

Naʻe fakahā ʻe Kalaisi kimui ange ʻi he fakahā ʻa Sioné, “Ko au ko e aka mo e hako ʻo Tēvita” ( Fakahā 22:16). Naʻe faʻa fakamamafaʻi ʻe he kau hiki Kosipelí ko Sīsū ko ha hako ia ʻo e Tuʻi ko Tēvitá (vakai ki he Mātiu 1:1 ; Maʻake 10:47 ; Luke 1:32 ; Sione 7:42).
