Ko e ʻuhinga ia ʻoku ui ai ia ʻe he Tohi Tapú ko ha “puleʻanga fakalangi.” (2 Timote 4:18) Neongo ko e Puleʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá ʻoku ʻi hēvani, ʻe pule mai ia ki he māmaní.—Fakahā 11:15.

Ko e fakatātaá, naʻe tala ʻe he ʻapositolo ko Paulá kia Tīmote: “Kapau ʻoku tau kataki, te tau kaungā-tuʻi foki mo ia.” (2 Timote 2:11 [2:12, PM]) ʻIo, ko Paula, Tīmote, mo e faʻahinga faitōnunga kehe ʻa ia kuo fili ʻe he ʻOtuá, te nau pule fakataha mo Sīsū ʻi he Puleʻanga fakahēvaní.

Ko Sione tonu ʻokú ne tala mai kiate kitautolu: “Ko kinautolu ʻeni ʻoku nau muimui ki he Lami, neongo pē ko e fe ha potu ʻoku ne ʻalu ki ai. Ko kinautolu ia naʻe fakatau mei he kakai, ko e fuatapu maʻa e ʻOtua mo e Lami.” (Fakahā 14:1, 4) ʻIo, ko e kau muimui faitōnunga kinautolu ʻo Sīsū Kalaisi ʻa ia kuo fili makehe ke nau pule ʻi hēvani fakataha mo ia. Hili hono fokotuʻu hake mei he maté ki he moʻui fakahēvaní, te nau “pule ko e ngaahi tuʻi ki he māmaní” fakataha mo Sīsū. (Fakahā 5:10, NW) Talu mei he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo e kau ʻapositoló, kuo fili ai ʻe he ʻOtuá ha kau Kalisitiane faitōnunga koeʻuhí ke fakakakatoʻaki ʻa e fika 144,000.
10. Ko e hā ko ha fokotuʻutuʻu anga-ʻofa ai kia Sīsū mo e toko 144,000 ke nau pule mai ki he faʻahinga ʻo e tangatá?
10 ʻOku mātuʻaki anga-ʻofa ʻa e fokotuʻutuʻu kia Sīsū mo e toko 144,000 ke nau pule mai ki he faʻahinga ʻo e tangatá. Ko e meʻa ʻe taha, ʻoku ʻiloʻi ʻe Sīsū ʻa e anga ʻo e hoko ko ha tangatá pea faingataʻaʻiá. Naʻe pehē ʻe Paula ko Sīsuú “oku ikai . . . taemanavaofa ki he e tau gaahi vaivai; ka nae ahiahiʻi tatau be ia i he mea kotoabe, ka nae ikai haane agahala.” (Hepelu 4:15, PM; 5:8) Ko hono kaungāpulé foki kuo nau faingataʻaʻia pea kātekina ʻa e hoko ko e tangatá. Tānaki atu ki ai, kuo nau fāinga mo e taʻehaohaoá pea fekuki mo e faʻahinga alangamahaki kotoa pē. Ko e moʻoni, te nau mahinoʻi ʻa e ngaahi palopalema ʻoku fetaulaki mo e faʻahinga ʻo e tangatá!

11. Ko e hā naʻe pehē ai ʻe Sīsū ʻoku totonu ke lotu ʻa ʻene kau ākongá ke fai ʻa e finangalo ʻo e ʻOtuá ʻi hēvaní?

Naʻe pau ke liliu ia ʻi he taimi ʻe kamata pule ai ʻa e Puleʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá. Ko e Tuʻi fakanofo foʻoú, ʻa Sīsū Kalaisi, naʻe pau ke ne faitau mo Sētane.—Fakahā 12:7-9.
