ʻOku maʻu ʻe he ngaahi fāmilí mo e niʻihi fakafoʻituituí ha fatongia toputapu ke fakatupulaki ha tui kia Sīsū Kalaisi mo tauhi maʻu ha fakamoʻoni mālohi. Naʻe fakatokanga mai ʻa e Fakamoʻuí ʻe malava pē ke kākaaʻi e “kakai filí” ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho fakaʻosí (Siosefa Sāmita—Mātiu 1:22). ʻOku nofotaha ʻa e lēsoni ko ʻení ʻi hono fakamālohia ʻo e fakamoʻoní ke maluʻi mei he ngaahi mālohi ʻo e filí, ʻa ia ʻoku feinga ke fakaʻauha ʻa e tuí.

Fakamatalaʻi ange naʻe tuʻo taha e lea ʻa ʻEletā Siosefa B.

Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau ʻa e fakamatala ko ʻení:

Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin
“ʻOku mahino ki he kau fonongá ko hono tafu mo tauhi maʻu ha afi ʻoku kakahá naʻe ʻikai ko ha meʻa noa pē pe fakafiemālie; ka ko ha meʻa naʻe fie maʻu kae moʻui. …
“ʻOku ʻikai fie maʻu ke tau maluʻi kitautolu mei ha fanga ulofi fekai ʻi heʻetau fonongaʻia e moʻuí he ʻaho ní, ka, ʻi ha ʻuhinga fakalaumālie, ʻoku tau fehangahangai mo e fanga ulofi kovi ʻa Sētané ʻi he fōtunga ʻo e ʻahiʻahí, koví, mo e angahalá. ʻOku tau moʻui ʻi ha ngaahi taimi fakatuʻutāmaki ʻi he taimi ʻoku ʻalu fano holo ai ʻa e fanga ulofi fekai ko ʻení ʻi he feituʻu tukuʻuta fakalaumālié ʻo fekumi kiate kinautolu ʻoku vaivai ʻenau tuí pe loto fakapapaú. … ʻOku tau tuʻu laveangofua kotoa pē ki he ʻoho ʻa e filí. Ka neongo ia, te tau lava ʻo fakamālohia kitautolu ʻaki e maluʻi ʻoku ʻomi ʻe ha fakamoʻoni mālohi, ʻoku hangē ha afi kakaha kuo tafunaki feʻunga pea tauhi fakalelei” (“Spiritual Bonfires of Testimony,” Ensign, Nov. 1992, 34).
Ko e hā ʻoku hoko ai hono tauhi ha fakamoʻoni mālohí “ko ha fie maʻu kae moʻui” ʻi he māmani ʻo e ʻaho ní? (Hili ha ngaahi fealeaʻaki, hiki ʻeni he palakipoé: ʻI he taimi ʻoku tau fakamālohia ai ʻetau fakamoʻoní, ʻoku faingataʻa leva ke tau tuʻu laveangofua ki hono ʻohofi ʻetau tuí.)
ʻE lava ke tokoni fēfē hono maʻu ha fakamoʻoni mālohí ke ke fakamālohia ʻa e kau mēmipa ʻo e fāmilí mo e niʻihi kehé mei hono ʻohofi ʻenau tuí?
Fakaʻaliʻali pe tā ʻa e saati ko ʻení ʻi he palakipoé. ʻOua ʻe fakakau ʻa e ngaahi tefitoʻi moʻoni mataʻāʻā ʻi he ngaahi haʻí; ʻoku ʻoatu ʻa e ngaahi tefitoʻi moʻoni ko ʻení ki he lelei ʻa e faiakó. Kole ki he kau akó ke nau lau e ngaahi veesi ʻi ha taha ʻo e ngaahi ʻotú, ʻo kumi ha ngaahi tefitoʻi moʻoni ʻe tokoni ke maluʻi mei he ngaahi mālohi ʻoku nau fakavaivaiʻi ʻa e tuí. Fakaafeʻi e kau akó ke fakamatalaʻi fakanounou e meʻa ʻoku nau laú ʻi ha fakamatala mahino ʻo e tokāteliné pe tefitoʻi moʻoní pea vahevahe ʻenau ngaahi fakamatalá.
(ʻI he taimi ʻoku tau tauhi ai ʻa e tui taʻeueʻia kia Sīsū Kalaisí, ʻe lava ke tau laka atu ki muʻa ʻi he hala fāsiʻi mo lausiʻi ʻoku fakatau ki he moʻui taʻengatá.)
(ʻI he taimi ʻoku tau muimui ai ki he kau ʻaposetolo, kau palōfita ʻa e ʻEikí, mo e kau taki kehe ʻo e Siasí ʻa e ʻEikí, ʻe lava ke maluʻi kitautolu mei he kākaá.)
(ʻE lava ke ʻomi ʻe he ʻEikí ʻa e nonga mo e fakahinohino ʻi he taimi ʻoku ʻohofi ai ʻetau tuí, ʻo fakafou ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní.)
(ʻOku fakamālohia ʻe he ʻaukaí, lotú, mo e ako folofolá ʻa e tuí mo e fakamoʻoní pea malava ai ke tau matuʻuaki ʻa e ngaahi faingataʻá.)
Kuo fakamālohia fēfē koe pe ko ha taha ʻokú ke ʻilo ʻe he ngaahi tefitoʻi moʻoni ko ʻení mei he ngaahi ʻohofi ʻi he tuí?
Te ke fakaʻaongaʻi fēfē ʻa e fakamatala ko ʻení ke fakamālohia ha taha ʻokú ke ʻilo ʻoku fefaʻuhi mo ʻene tuí?
Fakamanatu ange ki he kau akó ʻa e meʻá ni: “Ko e tuí ko ha meʻaʻofa ʻa e ʻOtuá kuo foaki ko ha fakapale ʻo e angamāʻoniʻoni fakatāutahá. ʻOku foaki maʻu pē ʻi he taimi ʻoku ʻi ai ʻa e angamāʻoniʻoní, pea ko e lahi ange ʻa e talangofua ki he ngaahi fono ʻa e ʻOtuá, ko e lahi ange ai pē ia ʻo e tui ʻoku foaki maí” (Bruce R. McConkie, Mormon Doctrine, 2nd ed. [1966], 264). Fakamoʻoni ange ʻe maluʻi mo fakamālohia ʻa e ngaahi fakamoʻoní ʻi hono maʻu ʻa e tui kia Sīsū Kalaisí, muimui ki he kau palōfitá, fekumi ki he Laumālié, pea mo hono ako e folofolá. ʻI he taimi ʻoku ʻikai ke tau fai ai e ngaahi meʻá ni, ʻe lava ke fakavaivaiʻi ʻa e tuí pea mole mo e ngaahi fakamoʻoní.

“Naʻá ne pehē mai, ʻPalesiteni, ʻoku ʻikai fie maʻu ia.’ Peá ne fakamatala mai leva ʻo pehē: ʻʻOku ou ʻilo ʻoku moʻoni ʻa e Tohi ʻa Molomoná. ʻOku ou ʻilo ko Siosefa Sāmitá ko e palōfita ʻa e ʻOtuá.’
“Ne u pehē ange, ʻSai, fakaʻofoʻofa ia.’ ʻKa te ke maʻu pē ʻa e tali ki hoʻo ngaahi fehuʻí. Naʻá ku ngāue fuoloa ki he meʻá ni, ko ia tangutu pē hena ʻo fakafanongo.’
