Ko e fakahinohinoʻi ʻe Paula ʻa Tīmote ʻo kau ki hono ngaahi fatongia ʻi hono tokangaʻi e Siasí
Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi ʻa e fakamatala ko ʻeni naʻe fai ʻe Palesiteni Tōmasi S. Monisoní:
“ʻOku ou manatu ki ha meʻa ne hoko kiate au he ngaahi taʻu kuo hilí ʻi heʻeku kei pīsopé. Lolotonga ha polokalama kamata ʻo ʻemau fakataha lakanga fakataulaʻeikí he pongipongi Sāpate ʻe taha, ne mau teuteu ai ke fakanofo ha talavou ke hoko ko ha taulaʻeiki. Ne ʻaʻahi mai he ʻaho ko iá ha Aleaʻanga Māʻolunga ne toe ngāue foki he temipalé. ʻI heʻeku teuteu ke fakatangutu e talavoú ke hanga ki he haʻofangá kae hoko atu e fakanofó, ne taʻofi mai au ʻe he aleaʻanga māʻolungá peá ne pehē mai, ʻPīsope, ʻoku ou ʻai maʻu pē ʻa e niʻihi ʻoku fakanofó ke nau hanga ki he temipalé.’ Naʻá ne fulihi ʻa e seá ke hanga ʻa e talavoú ki he feituʻu ne tuʻu ai e temipalé. Ne u fakatokangaʻi he taimi ko iá ha founga ne ʻikai fakamafaiʻi” (“Lea Kamatá,” [fakataha ako fakatakimuʻa fakaemāmani lahi, Nōvema 2010], lds.org/broadcasts).
Fakamatalaʻi ange naʻe fakamafaiʻi ʻa Palesiteni Monisoni ʻi heʻene hoko ko e pīsopé, kae ʻikai ko e aleaʻanga māʻolungá, ke tokangaʻi e ngāue ʻa e ʻEikí ʻi hono uōtí.

Ko e hā ha fakatuʻutāmaki ʻe ala hoko ʻi hono fakangofua ʻe ha pīsope pe palesiteni fakakolo ha founga taʻefakamafaiʻi pehē?
Fakamatalaʻi ange naʻe fai ʻe he ʻAposetolo ko Paulá ha tohi kia Tīmote, ko ha taki lakanga fakataulaʻeiki kei talavou ʻi ʻEfesō. Naʻe fehangahangai ʻa Tīmote ʻi he kolo ʻo e Siasí naʻá ne tokangaʻí, mo ha ngaahi faingataʻa tatau mo ia ne fehangahangai mo Palesiteni Monisoní.

Fakatatau ki he veesi 6–7, ko e hā naʻe mahuʻinga ai ke fakahoko ʻe Tīmote e fatongiá ni?

Ko e hā ha moʻoni te tau lava ʻo ako mei he faleʻi ʻa Paula kia Tīmoté fekauʻaki mo e fatongia ʻo e kau taki lakanga fakataulaʻeikí? (Mahalo ʻe fakaʻaongaʻi ʻe he kau akó ha ngaahi lea kehe, kae fakapapauʻi ʻoku nau ʻiloʻi ha moʻoni hangē ko ʻení: ʻOku maʻu ʻe he kau taki lakanga fakataulaʻeikí ʻa e fatongia ke fakapapauʻi ʻoku akoʻi ʻa e tokāteline moʻoní mo e ngaahi founga totonú. Tohi ʻa e moʻoni ko ʻení ʻi he palakipoé.)

“Ne u vakai ʻe lava ke mafola e foungá ni. Neongo ne u kei siʻi ange he aleaʻanga māʻolungá, ka naʻá ku ʻiloʻi ʻa e meʻa ne fie maʻu ke faí. Ne u fakatafoki ʻa e seá ke hanga ki he haʻofangá peá u pehē ange ki ai, ‘ʻI homau uōtí, ʻoku mau tangutu ʻo hanga ki he haʻofangá,’” (“Lea Kamatá,”lds.org/broadcasts).

ʻOku tāpuakiʻi fēfē kitautolu ʻe he kau taki lakanga fakataulaʻeiki ʻoku ngāue ke fakapapauʻi ʻoku akoʻi ʻa e tokāteline moʻoní mo e ngaahi founga totonú ʻi he Siasí?
Fakamatalaʻi fakanounou ʻa e 1 Tīmote 1:8–11 ʻaki hono fakamatalaʻi ange naʻe fakatokanga ʻa Paula kiate kinautolu naʻe loto ke hoko ko e kau faiako ʻo e fono ʻa e ʻOtuá ka naʻe ʻikai ke nau maʻu ha mahino totonu ki aí.

Fakatatau ki he veesi 15–16, ʻoku hoko fēfē ʻa Paula ko ha “fakaʻilonga” kiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku tui kia Sīsū Kalaisí?
Fakamatalaʻi fakanounou ʻa e 1 Tīmote 1:17–1 Tīmote 3 ʻaki hono fakamatalaʻi ange naʻe faleʻi ʻe Paula ʻa Tīmote ke pikitai ki heʻene tuí. Naʻe akoʻi ʻe Paula ko Sīsū Kalaisi hotau fakalaloá, peá ne faleʻi e kāingalotu ʻo e Siasí fekauʻaki mo e founga ʻo ʻenau fakafōtungá. Naʻá ne toe fokotuʻu mai foki e ngaahi fie maʻu ki he kau pīsopé mo e kau tīkoní.

Kapau ʻoku fakafofongaʻi ʻe he pine fakamaʻu pepá ha tokotaha, ko e hā ʻe ala fakafofongaʻi ʻe he makinitó?
Kole ki he kau akó ke fakakaukau ki he founga kuo nau hangē ai ko e makinitó pea tākiekina e niʻihi kehé. Fakaafeʻi e kau akó ke kumi ha tefitoʻi moʻoni ʻi heʻenau ako e 1 Tīmote 4 ʻokú ne akoʻi mai e founga te tau lava ai ʻo hoko ko ha ivi tākiekina lelei ʻi he moʻui ʻa e niʻihi kehé.
Fakamatalaʻi fakanounou ʻa e 1 Tīmote 4:1–11 ʻaki hono fakamatalaʻi ange naʻe kikiteʻi ʻe Paula ʻi he “ngaahi kuonga fakamuí” (veesi 1)ʻe mavahe ha kāingalotu ʻe niʻihi ʻo e Siasí mei he tuí pea muimui ki he ngaahi akonaki mo e ngaahi founga loí, ʻo hangē ko e “ʻoua naʻa malí” (veesi 3). Naʻe naʻinaʻi ʻa Paula kia Tīmote ke fafanga e Kāingalotú ʻaki e tokāteline moʻoní.
Fakaafeʻi e kau akó ke lau fakalongolongo e 1 Tīmote 4:12 ʻo kumi e meʻa naʻe faleʻi ʻe Paula ʻa Tīmote ke ne hoko ko iá. Fakamatalaʻi ange ʻoku ʻuhinga e foʻi lea ʻulungaanga ʻi he veesi ko ʻení ki he tōʻongá. Kole ki he kau akó ke nau lipooti e meʻa ʻoku nau maʻú.

Fakaʻaliʻali ha paʻanga ki he kalasí.

ʻOkú ke pehē ʻoku ʻuhinga ki he hā e kupuʻi lea “ko e ʻofa ki he koloá, ko e tefito ia ʻo e kovi kotoa pē”? (1 Tīmote 6:10).

Fakatatau ki he veesi 9–10, ko e hā ʻoku fakatau ki ai ʻa e ʻofa ki he paʻangá? (Hili e tali ʻa e kau akó, hiki e moʻoni ko ení he palakipoé: ʻOku fakatau ʻa e ʻofa ki he paʻangá ki he taʻe-māʻoniʻoní mo e hē mei he moʻoní.)

ʻOkú ke pehē ko e hā ʻoku fakatau ai e ʻofa ki he paʻangá ki he taʻemāʻoniʻoní mo e hē mei he moʻoní?
Ke tokoni ke mahino ki he kau akó ko ha “ʻofa” ki he paʻangá ka ʻoku ʻikai ko e paʻangá ʻoku fakatau ki he taʻemāʻoniʻoní, fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi ʻa e fakamatala ko ʻeni ʻa ʻEletā Tāleni H. ʻOakesi ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá:

Ko ia ‘ko e ʻofa ki he koloá [ʻa ia] ko e tefito ia ʻo e kovi kotoa pē.’(1 Tīmote 6:10; tānaki atu hono fakamamafaʻí.) Ko e faikehekehe mātuʻaki mahuʻingá ʻa e tuʻunga fakalaumālie ʻoku tau fakaʻaongaʻi ʻi hono fakakaukauʻi, vakaiʻi mo tokangaʻi ʻaki e ngaahi meʻa ʻo e māmaní” (“Spirituality,” Ensign, Nov. 1985, 63).
