ʻI he taimi ʻoku papitaiso ai kitautolú, ʻoku tau fuakava ke …

Ko e hā ʻoku tau fuakava ke fai ʻi he taimi ʻoku papitaiso ai kitautolú? (ʻI he ʻomi e tali ʻa e kau akó, lisi ʻenau ngaahi talí ʻi he palakipoé ke fakakakato ʻa e fakamatala fakatokāteline ko ʻení: ʻI he taimi ʻoku papitaiso ai kitautolú, ʻoku tau fuakava ke fefuaʻaki ʻetau ngaahi kavengá, tuʻu ko ha kau fakamoʻoni ʻa e ʻOtuá, ngāue ki Ai, mo tauhi ʻEne ngaahi fekaú.)

Ko e Moihū he ʻaho Sāpaté

Fakamatalaʻi ange ʻoku fakahaaʻi mai ʻi he Tohi ʻa Molomoná ʻa e ngaahi founga ʻe niʻihi ʻoku lava ai ke tauhi ʻe he kau mēmipa ʻo e Siasi ʻo Kalaisí ʻa e fuakava ʻo e papitaisó.

Vahe ki he vaheua ʻe taha ʻo e kau akó ke nau ako ʻa e Mōsaia 18:17, 23–25 kae ako ʻe he vaeua ʻe tahá ʻa e Molonai 6:4–6.

Fakaafeʻi leva ke nau vahevahe e meʻa ʻoku nau maʻú.

Ko e hā ha niʻihi ʻo e ngaahi ʻuhinga naʻe faʻa fakataha ai ʻa e kāingalotú? (ʻOku totonu ke ʻilo ʻe he kau akó ʻa e ngaahi moʻoni ko ʻení: ʻI he taimi ʻoku tau hoko ai ko ha kau mēmipa ʻo e Siasi ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí, ʻoku fekau kitautolu ke tau tauhi ʻa e ʻaho Sāpaté pea tauhi ia ke māʻoniʻoni. ʻI heʻetau hoko ko e mēmipa ʻo e Siasí, ʻoku totonu ke tau faʻa fakataha maʻu pē ke fafanga kitautolu ʻaki ʻa e folofola lelei ʻa e ʻOtuá, ke ʻaukai, lotu, fetokoniʻaki, mo maʻu ʻa e sākalamēnití.)

Lau ʻa e lea ko ʻeni ʻa ʻEletā Sefilī R. Hōlani ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá:

“Ko e tokolahi ʻo e kakaí ʻoku ʻikai ke nau haʻu ki he lotú ko e fekumi pē ki ha ngaahi moʻoni foʻou mei he ongoongoleleí pe fetaulaki mo ha kaungāmeʻa fuoloa, neongo ʻoku mahuʻinga kotoa pē ʻa e ngaahi meʻá ni. ʻOku nau haʻu ko e fekumi ki ha aʻusia fakalaumālie. ʻOku nau fie maʻu ʻa e nongá. ʻOku nau fie maʻu ke fakamālohia ʻenau tuí pea fakafoʻou ʻenau ʻamanakí. ʻI hono fakanounoú, ʻoku nau fie maʻu ke fafanga fakalaumālie kinautolu ʻaki ʻa e folofola lelei ʻa e ʻOtuá, pea ke fakamālohia ʻaki ʻa e ngaahi mālohi ʻo e langí” (“A Teacher Come from God,” Ensign, May 1998, 26).

ʻOku lava fēfē ʻe he fakataha mo e kau mēmipa kehe ʻo e Siasí ʻi he Sāpate ʻo tokoniʻi koe ke ke ongoʻi ʻoku “fakamālohia ʻaki ʻa e ngaahi mālohi ʻo e langí”?
Ko e hā ʻokú ke fai ʻi he Siasí ke toe ofi ange ai mo toe feʻunga ange hoʻo moihū ki he Tamai Hēvaní mo Sīsū Kalaisi?

Ke tokoni ke toe mahino ange ki he kau akó ʻa e ʻuhinga ʻoku fekau ai ʻa e kau mēmipa ʻo e Siasí ke tauhi ʻa e ʻaho Sāpaté pea tauhi ia ke māʻoniʻoni, fakaafeʻi kinautolu ke nau lau ʻa e ʻEkesōtosi 31:13, 16–17 pea fakafekauʻaki ia mo e Mōsaia 18:23.

ʻOku ʻuhinga ki he hā ʻa e pehē ko e Sāpaté ko ha “fakaʻilonga” ʻi hotau vā mo e ʻEikí?

Lau e fakamatala ko ʻeni ʻa ʻEletā Lāsolo M. Nalesoni ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá:

“ʻOku tau fakaʻapaʻapaʻi fēfē ʻa e ʻaho Sāpaté? ʻI hoku ngaahi taʻu kei talavou angé, naʻá ku ʻilo ai ki ha ngāue ʻa ha kakai kehe naʻa nau fakatahaʻi ha ngaahi lisi ʻo e ngaahi meʻa ke fai pea mo ha ngaahi meʻa ke ʻoua ʻe fai ʻi he ʻaho Sāpaté.

Maʻu ʻo e Sākalamēnití

Hiki ʻi he palakipoé, ʻa e lea ko ʻeni ʻa ʻEletā L. Tomu Peuli (1922–2015) ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá (meí he “As Now We Take the Sacrament,” Ensign pe Liahona, May 2006, 39):

“ʻOku ʻomi ʻe hono maʻu ʻo e sākalamēnití kiate kitautolu ha kiʻi taimi toputapu ʻi ha feituʻu māʻoniʻoni.” (ʻEletā L. Tomu Peuli.)

ʻE tokoni fēfē ʻa e fakakaukau ko ʻeni ʻo “ha mōmeniti toputapu” mo “ha feituʻu māʻoniʻoni” ki heʻetau fakakaukaú mo ʻetau tōʻongá ʻi he taimi ʻoku tau maʻu ai ʻa e sākalamēnití?

Fakamanatu ki he kau akó naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe Sīsū Kalaisi kuo toetuʻú ʻa e sākalamēnití ʻi he taimi naʻe ʻaʻahi ai ki he kau Nīfaí ʻi Mahú. Fakaafeʻi ha niʻihi ʻo e kau akó ke nau taufetongi ʻo lau leʻolahi ʻa e 3 Nīfai 18:1–11 kae kumi ʻa e kalasí ʻa e meʻa naʻe akoʻi ʻe he Fakamoʻuí fekauʻaki mo e taumuʻa ʻo e sākalamēnití.

Ko e hā ʻa e tefitoʻi moʻoni naʻe akoʻi ʻe he Fakamoʻuí ʻo kau ki he taumuʻa ʻo e sākalamēnití? (ʻI he taimi ʻoku ʻomi ai ʻa e tali ʻa e kau akó, hiki ʻa e tefitoʻi moʻoni ko ʻení ʻi he palakipoé: ʻI heʻetau maʻu ʻa e sākalamēnití pea manatu maʻu ai pē kia Sīsū Kalaisí, te tau maʻu ʻa Hono Laumālié.)
Ko e hā ʻokú ke fai ke manatu maʻu ai pē ki he Fakamoʻuí lolotonga hoʻo maʻu e sākalamēnití pea ʻi he lolotonga ʻo e uiké?

Fakamanatu ki he kau akó naʻe lēkooti ʻe Molonai ʻa e ngaahi lea naʻe fakaʻaongaʻi ʻe he kau muimui ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí ʻi he taimi naʻa nau tāpuakiʻi ai ʻa e sākalamēnití. Fakakaukau ke fakaafeʻi ʻa e kau akó ke lau ʻa e lotu tāpuakiʻi ʻo e sākalamēnití ʻi he Molonai 4:3 mo e 5:2 pea laineʻi ʻa e ngaahi kupuʻi lea ʻoku fekauʻaki mo e tefitoʻi moʻoni ʻoku tohi ʻi he palakipoé.

Ko e hā ʻe ala hoko ʻo kapau he ʻikai ke tau “manatu maʻu ai pē kiate ia”? (Molonai 4:3; 5:2).

ʻOku ʻuhinga ki he hā ʻa e “ʻikai fiekaia pe fieinua hono laumālié ʻo taʻengata, kā ʻe mākona pē ia”?
Ko e hā ʻa e ngaahi founga kuo fakafiemālieʻi ai ʻe hoʻo maʻu ʻa e sākalamēnití hoʻo fiekaia mo fieinua fakalaumālié?
ʻOku tokoni fēfē ʻetau maʻu ʻa e sākalamēnití ʻi he loto-fakatōkilalo mo e houngaʻiá ke tau toe manatu lelei ange ai ki he Fakamoʻuí ʻi he toenga ʻo e uiké?

Fakaafeʻi ha kau ako ke nau fakakaukau ki heʻenau tōʻonga lolotonga ʻa e houalotu sākalamēnití lolotonga hono lau leʻolahi ʻe ha tokotaha ako ʻa e fakamatala ko ʻeni ʻa ʻEletā Talini H. ʻOakesí:

“Lolotonga e houalotu sākalamēnití—tautautefito ki he lolotonga fakahoko ʻo e ouau sākalamēnití—ʻoku totonu ke tau tokanga taha ki he lotú pea ʻoua naʻa toe fai ha ngaahi meʻa kehe, tautautefito ki ha tōʻonga te ne fakahohaʻasi e niʻihi kehé ʻi heʻenau lotú. … ʻOku ʻikai ko e houalotu sākalamēnití ke lau tohi pe lau makasini ai.

ʻI hoʻo fakakaukauʻi ʻa e fie maʻu hoʻo kau akó mo e ngaahi ueʻi ʻa e Laumālié, ʻe lava ke ke lau ʻa e Maʻake 14:37 mo kinautolu pea fakamahino ange ko e founga ʻe taha ʻe lava ke fakaʻaongaʻi ai ʻa e veesi ko ʻení ko ʻetau tuku ki he tafaʻakí ʻa e ngaahi meʻa kotoa ʻe ala fakahohaʻasi kitautolú pea tuku kakato ʻetau tokangá ki he ʻEikí ʻi he uike kotoa ʻi heʻetau lotu ʻi he houalotu sākalamēnití.
