ʻOku fakahinohino ʻe Paula ʻa Tīmote kau ki hono ngaahi fatongia ʻi hono tokangaʻi ʻo e Siasí
Lau ʻa e lea ko ʻeni ʻa Palesiteni Tōmasi S. Monisoní: “ʻOku ou manatu ki ha meʻa naʻe hoko ʻi ha ngaahi taʻu lahi he kuohilí ʻi he taimi naʻá ku fua fatongia ai ko ha pīsope. Lolotonga ʻa e ngaahi polokalama he kamata ʻemau houalotu lakanga fakataulaʻeikí he pongipongi Sāpate ʻe taha, naʻa mau teuteu ke fakanofo ha talavou ki he lakanga taulaʻeikí. Ne ʻaʻahi mai ki homau uōtí he ʻaho ko iá ha mēmipa ʻo e fakataha alēlea māʻolungá, ʻa ia naʻe toe ngāue pē he temipalé. ʻI heʻeku teuteu ke fakatangutu ʻa e talavoú ke hanga ki he kāingalotú kae kamata ʻa e fakanofó, ne taʻofi au ʻe he aleaʻanga māʻolungá peá ne pehē mai, “Pīsope, ʻoku ou ʻai maʻu pē ʻa kinautolu ʻoku fakanofó ke nau hanga ki he temipalé.” Naʻá ne toe fokotuʻu ʻa e seá ke hanga ʻa e talavoú ki he feituʻu ʻoku ʻi ai ʻa e temipalé. Naʻá ku fakatokangaʻi he taimi pē ko ia ha founga naʻe ʻikai fakamafaiʻi” (“Opening Remarks” [worldwide leadership training meeting, Nov. 2010], lds.org/broadcasts).
ʻI he hoko ʻa Palesiteni Monisoni ko e pīsopé, ko ia kuo fakamafaiʻi ke ne puleʻi ʻa e ngāue ʻa e ʻEikí ʻi hono uootí, kae ʻikai ko e aleaʻanga māʻolungá.

Naʻe hiki ʻe he ʻAposetolo ko Paulá ha tohi kia Tīmote, ko ha taki lakanga fakataulaʻeiki kei talavou ʻi ʻEfesō. Naʻe fehangahangai ʻa Tīmoté ʻi he kolo ʻo e Siasí naʻá ne puleʻí mo ha ngaahi pole ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe hoko kia Palesiteni Monisoni ʻi he talanoa naʻá ke laú.

Lau ʻa e lea ko ʻeni ʻa ʻEletā Tāleni H. ʻOakesi ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá:
“ʻOku ʻikai kovi ʻa e paʻangá. Naʻe fakaʻaongaʻi ʻe he Samēlia Leleí ʻa e kupuʻi lea tatau ke tokoni ki he tangatá, ka naʻe fakaʻaongaʻi ia ʻe Siutasi ke lavakiʻi ʻa e ʻEikí. ʻOku pehē ‘ko e ʻofa ki he koloá [ʻa ia] ko e tefito ʻo e kovi kotoa pē.” (1 Tīmote 6:10; tānaki atu ʻa e fakamamafá.) Ko e faikehekehé ʻe makatuʻunga ia ʻi he tuʻunga fakalaumālie ʻoku tau ʻi aí ʻi he anga ʻetau vakaí, fakakaukaú mo ʻetau levaʻi ʻa e ngaahi meʻa ʻo e māmaní pea mo ʻetau ngaahi aʻusia aí.
“Kapau te tau tuku ke hoko ʻa e paʻangá ko ha meʻa ke tau ʻotua ʻaki pe fakamahuʻingaʻi, ʻe lava ke ne ngaohi kitautolu ke tau siokita, taʻefieauna, “hīkisia ʻi he ngaahi meʻa taʻeʻaonga ʻo e māmaní.’ ( ʻAlamā 5:37.)
