“KO HOKU NGAAHI KAUMEʻA ʻAKIMOUTOLU”
“Ko hoku ngaahi kaumeʻa ʻakimoutolu ʻo kapau ʻoku mou fai ʻa e ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ou tuʻutuʻuni atu.”—SIONE 15:14.
1, 2. (a) Ko e hā ʻa e ngaahi puipuituʻa kehekehe naʻe haʻu mei ai ʻa e ngaahi kaumeʻa ʻo Sīsuú? (e) Ko e hā ʻoku mātuʻaki mahuʻinga ai ke tau hoko ko e ngaahi kaumeʻa ʻo Sīsuú?
KO E kau tangata naʻe nofo mo Sīsū ʻi he loki ʻi ʻolungá naʻa nau haʻu mei he ngaahi puipuituʻa kehekehe. Ko e ongo tautehina ko Pita mo ʻAniteluú ko e ongo tangata toutai. Ko Mātiú ko ha tokotaha tānaki tukuhau ia ki muʻa—ko ha mēmipa ʻo ha ngāue naʻe fehiʻanekinaʻi ʻe he kau Siú. Ko e niʻihi, hangē ko Sēmisi mo Sioné, ʻoku ngalingali naʻá na ʻiloʻi ʻa Sīsū mei heʻena kei siʻí. Ko e niʻihi kehe, hangē ko Nātanielá, naʻá ne ʻiloʻi nai ia ʻi ha ngaahi taʻu siʻi pē. (Sione 1:43-50) Neongo ia, ko e faʻahinga kotoa naʻe ʻi ai ʻi he pō Pāsova mahuʻinga ko ia ʻi Selusalemá naʻa nau tuipau ko Sīsū ʻa e Mīsaia naʻe talaʻofá, ko e ʻAlo ʻo e ʻOtua moʻuí. (Sione 6:68, 69) Kuo pau naʻe māfana ʻa honau lotó ʻi he fanongo ki heʻene tala ange kia kinautolu: “Kuo u ui kimoutolu ko hoku ngaahi kaumeʻa; koeʻuhi ʻilonga ha meʻa ne u fanongo mei heʻeku Tamai kuo u fakaʻilo kiate kimoutolu.”—Sione 15:15.
2 Ko e ngaahi lea ko ia ʻa Sīsū ki heʻene kau ʻapositolo faitōnungá ʻoku ngāueʻaki ʻa hono tefitoʻi moʻoní ki he kau Kalisitiane pani kotoa pē he ʻaho ní, pea aʻu atu ai ki honau takanga ko e “fanga sipi kehe.” (Sione 10:16) Tatau ai pē pe ko e hā ʻa hotau puipuituʻá, ʻe lava ke tau maʻu ʻa e monū ʻo e hoko ko e ngaahi kaumeʻa ʻo Sīsū. Ko ʻetau kaumeʻa mo iá ʻoku mahuʻinga ʻaupito koeʻuhi ko e hoko ko hono ngaahi kaumeʻá ʻoku ʻai ai kitautolu ko e ngaahi kaumeʻa foki ʻo Sihova. Ko hono moʻoní, ʻoku ʻikai malava ke ʻunuʻunu ofi kia Sihova ʻo ʻikai tomuʻa ʻunuʻunu ofi kia Kalaisi. (Lau ʻa e Sione 14:6, 21.) Ko e hā leva kuo pau ke tau fai ke tau hoko ʻo kaumeʻa ai pē mo Sīsū? Ki muʻa ke lāulea ki he kaveinga mahuʻinga ko iá, tau sivisiviʻi angé ʻa e faʻifaʻitakiʻanga tonu ʻa Sīsū ʻo ʻene hoko ko ha kaumeʻa leleí pea sio ki he meʻa ʻe lava ke tau ako mei he anga ʻo e fakafeangai kiate ia ʻa ʻene kau ākongá.
Faʻifaʻitakiʻanga ʻa Sīsū ʻi Heʻene Hoko ko ha Kaumeʻa Lelei
3. Ko e hā naʻe ʻiloa ai ʻa Sīsuú?
3 “ʻOku tokolahi ʻa e ngaahi kaumeʻa ʻo e tokotaha koloaʻiá,” ko e tohi ia ʻa e poto ko Tuʻi Solomoné. (Pal. 14:20, NW) Ko e fakalea ko iá ʻokú ne fakamatalaʻi fakanounou ʻa e hehema ʻa e faʻahinga taʻehaohaoa ʻo e tangatá ke fokotuʻu ha ngaahi kaumeʻa makatuʻunga ʻi he meʻa ʻe lava ke nau maʻú kae ʻikai ʻi he meʻa ʻe lava ke nau foakí. Naʻe ʻikai fakahāhā ʻe Sīsū ha vaivaiʻanga pehē. Naʻe ʻikai tākiekina ia ʻe he tuʻunga fakapaʻanga pe fakasōsiale ʻo ha tokotaha. Ko e moʻoni, naʻe ongoʻi ʻofa ʻa Sīsū ki ha talavou pule koloaʻia peá ne fakaafeʻi ia ke ne muimui kiate ia. Kae kehe, naʻe fakahinohino ʻe Sīsū ki he tangata ko iá ke ne fakatau atu ʻa e meʻa naʻá ne maʻú ʻo foaki ki he masivá. (Mk. 10:17-22; Luke 18:18, 23) Naʻe ʻiloa ʻa Sīsū, ʻo ʻikai ʻi heʻene feohi mo e kau koloaʻiá mo e tuʻu-ki-muʻá, ka ko ʻene fakakaumeʻa ki he faʻahinga māʻulaló mo fehiʻanekiná.—Mt. 11:19.
4. Ko e hā ʻoku lava ai ke pehē ko e ngaahi kaumeʻa ʻo Sīsuú naʻe ʻi ai ʻenau tōnounou?
4 Ko e moʻoni, ko e ngaahi kaumeʻa ʻo Sīsuú naʻe ʻi ai ʻenau tōnounou. Naʻe ʻikai malava ʻa Pita ʻi ha taimi ke vakai fakalaumālie ki he ngaahi meʻá. (Mt. 16:21-23) Ko Sēmisi mo Sione naʻá na fakahāhā ʻa e sio tuʻunga ʻi heʻena kole kia Sīsū ke ne ʻoange maʻanaua ʻa e ongo tuʻunga tuʻu-ki-muʻa ʻi he Puleʻangá. Ko ʻena tōʻongá naʻe fakaʻitaʻi ai ʻa e kau ʻapositolo kehé, pea ko e tālanga ko ia ki he tuʻunga ʻiloá ko ha tupuʻanga hokohoko ia ʻo e fakakikihi. Kae kehe, naʻe feinga anga-kātaki ʻa Sīsū ke fakatonutonu ʻa e fakakaukau ʻa hono ngaahi kaumeʻá pea naʻe ʻikai te ne kina ʻia kinautolu.—Mt. 20:20-28.
5, 6. (a) Ko e hā naʻe kaumeʻa ai pē ʻa Sīsū mo e tokolahi taha ʻo e kau ʻapositoló? (e) Ko e hā ne fakangata ai ʻe Sīsū ʻa ʻene kaumeʻa mo Siutasí?
5 Naʻe ʻikai ke kaumeʻa ai pē ʻa Sīsū mo e kau tangata taʻehaohaoa ko ení koeʻuhí naʻá ne kātaki tōtuʻa pe sio kehe mei heʻenau ngaahi taʻehaohaoá. ʻI hono kehé, naʻá ne fili ke tokangataha ki heʻenau fakaueʻiloto leleí mo honau ʻulungaanga leleí. Ko e fakatātaá, ko Pita, Sēmisi mo Sioné naʻa nau māʻumohe kae ʻikai poupouʻi ʻa Sīsū ʻi hono taimi faingataʻa tahá. ʻOku mahinongofua naʻe siva e ʻamanaki ʻa Sīsuú ʻia kinautolu. Naʻa mo ia, naʻá ne ʻiloʻi naʻe lelei ʻenau fakaueʻilotó, ʻi heʻene pehē: “ʻOku loto pe ʻa laumalie ke fai, ka ʻoku vaivai ʻa kakano.”—Mt. 26:41.
6 ʻI hono kehé, naʻe fakangata ʻe Sīsū ʻa ʻene kaumeʻa mo Siutasi ʻIsikalioté. Neongo naʻe hokohoko atu ʻe Siutasi ʻene ʻai ke hā fakakaumeʻa ki tuʻá, naʻe ʻiloʻi ʻe Sīsū ko hono kaumeʻa ofi ko eni ki muʻá kuó ne fakaʻatā ke kākaaʻi ʻa hono lotó. Koeʻuhi naʻe hoko ʻa Siutasi ko ha kaumeʻa ʻo e māmaní, naʻá ne ʻai ai ia tonu ko ha fili ʻo e ʻOtuá. (Sem. 4:4) Ko ia ai, naʻe ʻosi tukuange ʻe Sīsū ia ke ʻalu ʻa Siutasi ʻi Heʻene fakahaaʻi ʻa ʻEne kaumeʻa mo e toenga ʻo e kau ʻapositolo faitōnunga ʻe toko 11.—Sione 13:21-35.
7, 8. Naʻe anga-fēfē hono fakahāhā ʻe Sīsū ʻa ʻene ʻofa ki hono ngaahi kaumeʻá?
7 Naʻe sio fakalaka ʻa Sīsū ʻi he ngaahi fehālaaki ʻa hono ngaahi kaumeʻa mateakí peá ne fai ʻa e meʻa naʻe lelei taha maʻanautolú. Hangē ko ení, naʻá ne lotu ki heʻene Tamaí ke ne maluʻi kinautolu lolotonga honau ngaahi ʻahiʻahí. (Lau ʻa e Sione 17:11.) Naʻe fakahaaʻi ʻe Sīsū ʻa e fakaʻatuʻi ki honau ngaahi ngātanga fakaesinó. (Mk. 6:30-32) Pea naʻá ne mahuʻingaʻia ʻo ʻikai ʻi hono tala ange pē kia kinautolu ʻa e meʻa naʻe ʻi heʻene fakakaukaú ka naʻá ne fanongo foki mo mahinoʻi ʻa e meʻa naʻa nau fakakaukau ki aí mo ongoʻí.—Mt. 16:13-16; 17:24-26.
8 Naʻe moʻui mo pekia fakatouʻosi ʻa Sīsū maʻa hono ngaahi kaumeʻá. Ko e moʻoni, naʻá ne ʻiloʻi kuo pau ke ne foaki ʻene moʻuí ko ha fiemaʻu fakalao ia ke fakalato ʻa e tuʻunga ʻo e fakamaau totonu ʻa ʻene Tamaí. (Mt. 26:27, 28; Hep. 9:22, 28) Ka naʻe foaki ʻe Sīsū ʻa ʻene moʻuí ko ha fakahāhā ia ʻo ʻene ʻofá. “Talaʻehai ʻoku ai ha ʻofa ʻa ha taha ʻe lahi ʻi he ʻofa ko é,” ko e lea ia ʻa Sīsuú, “ke ne liʻaki ʻene moʻui koeʻuhi ko hono ngaahi kaumeʻa.”—Sione 15:13.
Naʻe Anga-Fēfē ʻa e Fakafeangai ʻa e Kau Ākongá ki he Kaumeʻa mo Sīsuú?
9, 10. Naʻe anga-fēfē ʻa e fakafeangai ʻa e kakaí ki he nima-homo ʻa Sīsuú?
9 Naʻe nima-homo ʻa Sīsū ʻi hono foaki ʻa hono taimí, ʻofá mo ʻene meʻa fakamatelié. Ko hono olá, naʻe ongoʻi ofi ʻa e kakaí kiate ia pea naʻa nau fiefia ke fai e meʻa tatau ʻi heʻenau fai ha foaki kiate ia. (Luke 8:1-3) Mei he meʻa tonu naʻá ne hokosiá, naʻe lava ai ke pehē ʻe Sīsū: “Foaki, pea ʻe foaki atu ʻa e kakaí kiate kimoutolu. Te nau huhua atu ki homou fungá ha fua lahi, kuo faʻo lolo hifo, ʻo lulu fakataha pea fonu mahuohua. He ko e meʻafua ʻoku mou fuaʻaki atú, te nau toe fua mai ʻaki ia kiate kimoutolu.”—Luke 6:38, NW.
10 Ko e moʻoni, naʻe feinga ʻa e niʻihi ke feohi mo Sīsū koeʻuhí pē ko e meʻa naʻe lava ke nau maʻu meiate iá. Ko e ngaahi kaumeʻa loi ko ení naʻa nau liʻaki ʻa Sīsū ʻi he taimi naʻe ʻikai ai te nau mahinoʻi ha meʻa naʻá ne leaʻaki. ʻI he ʻikai falala kia Sīsū ʻi he ʻikai te nau mahinoʻi iá, naʻa nau vave ki hono fai ha fakamulituku hala pea nau sītuʻa meiate ia. ʻI hono kehé, naʻe mateaki ʻa e kau ʻapositoló. Ko ʻenau kaumeʻa mo Kalaisí naʻe faʻa ʻahiʻahiʻi, ka naʻa nau fai ʻenau lelei tahá ke poupouʻi ia lolotonga ʻa e ngaahi taimi leleí mo e koví. (Lau ʻa e Sione 6:26, 56, 60, 66-68.) ʻI hono pō fakaʻosi ʻi he tuʻunga ko ha tangata ʻi he māmaní, naʻe fakahaaʻi ai ʻe Sīsū ʻa ʻene houngaʻia ki hono ngaahi kaumeʻá, ʻi heʻene pehē: “Ko kimoutolu ia kuo nofoʻi maʻu mo au ʻi hoku ngaahi ʻahiʻahi.”—Luke 22:28.
11, 12. Naʻe anga-fēfē hono fakafiemālieʻi ʻe Sīsū ʻa ʻene kau ākongá, pea naʻe anga-fēfē ʻenau tali ki aí?
11 ʻI he hili pē hono fakaongoongoleleiʻi ʻe Sīsū ʻa ʻene kau ākongá ʻi heʻenau mateakí, ko e kau tangata tatau pē ko ení naʻa nau liʻaki ia. Naʻa nau fakaʻatā ʻi he taimi nounou ʻa e manavahē tangatá ke ne lōmia ʻa ʻenau ʻofa kia Kalaisí. Naʻe toe fakamolemoleʻi kinautolu ʻe Sīsū. Hili ʻene pekiá mo ʻene toetuʻú, naʻá ne hā kia kinautolu ʻo fakafiemālieʻi ʻi heʻene fakapapauʻi ange ʻene kaumeʻa mo kinautolú. ʻIkai ngata aí, naʻá ne tuku kia kinautolu ha ngāue toputapu—ke ngaohi ke hoko ko e kau ākonga ʻa e “ngāhi kakai kotoa pe” pea ke nau hoko ko ʻene kau fakamoʻoni “ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga ʻo māmani.” (Mt. 28:19; Ng. 1:8) Naʻe anga-fēfē ʻa e tali ki ai ʻa e kau ākongá?
12 Naʻe ʻikai toe tuku ha ivi ʻo e kau ākongá ʻi hono fakamafola ʻa e pōpoaki ʻo e Puleʻangá. ʻI he poupou ʻa e laumālie māʻoniʻoni ʻo Sihová, naʻe vave ʻenau fakafonuʻaki ʻenau akonakí ʻa Selusalema. (Ng. 5:27-29) Naʻa mo e fakamanamana ʻo e maté naʻe ʻikai lava ke ne fakatafokiʻi kinautolu mei he talangofua ki he fekau ʻa Sīsū ke ngaohi ākongá. ʻI ha hongofuluʻi taʻu siʻi pē mei heʻenau maʻu ʻa e fekau ʻa Sīsuú, naʻe lava ke tohi ai ʻa e ʻapositolo ko Paulá ʻo pehē ko e ongoongo leleí kuo malangaʻi ia “ki he meʻa moʻui kotoa pe ʻi he lalo langi.” (Kol. 1:23) Ko e moʻoni, ko e kau ākonga ko ení naʻa nau fakamoʻoniʻi ʻenau fakamahuʻingaʻi ʻa e haʻi ʻo ʻenau kaumeʻa mo Sīsuú!
13. Ko e hā ʻa e ngaahi founga naʻe fakaʻatā ʻe he kau ākonga ʻa Sīsuú ke ueʻi ai kinautolu ʻe heʻene ngaahi akonakí?
13 Ko e faʻahinga ko ia naʻa nau hoko ko e kau ākongá naʻa nau toe fakaʻatā ʻa e ngaahi akonaki ʻa Sīsuú ke ne ueʻi ʻenau moʻui fakafoʻituituí. Ki he tokolahi, naʻe ʻuhinga ení ko hono fai ʻo e ngaahi liliu lahi ʻi heʻenau tōʻongá mo e angaʻitangatá. Ko e kau ākonga foʻou ʻe niʻihi naʻa nau hoko ki muʻa ko e kau faka-Sōtoma, kau tono, kau konā, pe ko e kau kaihaʻa. (1 Kol. 6:9-11) Ko e niʻihi naʻe pau ke liliu ʻenau fakakaukau ki he faʻahinga ko ia ʻi he matakali kehé. (Ng. 10:25-28) Kae kehe, naʻa nau talangofua kia Sīsū. Naʻa nau huʻihuʻi ʻa honau angaʻitangata motuʻá pea ʻai ʻa e angaʻitangata foʻou. (Ef. 4:20-24) Naʻa nau hoko ʻo maheni mo e “ʻatamai ʻo Kalaisí,” ʻo mahinoʻi mo faʻifaʻitaki ki he anga ʻo ʻene fakakaukaú mo ʻene ngāué.—1 Kol. 2:16, NW.

Ko e founga ʻe taha ke talangofua ki he tataki kuo ʻomai ʻe he kalasi tamaioʻeiki anga-tonu mo potó, ʻa ia ʻoku faʻuʻaki ʻa e fanga tokoua ʻo Sīsū kuo pani ʻe he laumālié ʻoku nau kei moʻui ʻi he māmaní. Naʻe talaʻofa ʻa Sīsū ʻi he lolotonga ʻo e “fakaʻosiʻosi ʻo e fokotuʻutuʻu lolotongá” te ne fakanofo ʻene tamaioʻeikí “ke ne tokangaʻi ʻene ngaahi meʻá kotoa.” (Mt. 24:3, 45-47, NW) ʻI he ʻahó ni, ko e fuʻu tokolahi ʻo e faʻahinga ko ia ʻoku nau feinga ke hoko ko e ngaahi kaumeʻa ʻo Kalaisí ʻoku ʻikai ko e ngaahi mēmipa kinautolu ʻo e kalasi tamaioʻeiki ko ení. ʻOku anga-fēfē hono tākiekina ʻe heʻenau tali ki he tataki ʻoku nau maʻu mei he kalasi tamaioʻeiki anga-tonú ʻa ʻenau kaumeʻa mo Kalaisí?

15 Lau ʻa e Mātiu 25:31-40.

16 Kapau ʻokú ke ʻamanaki ke moʻui ʻi he māmaní ʻi he malumalu ʻo e Puleʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá, ʻe lava fēfē ke ke fakahāhā ʻa hoʻo fakakaumeʻa ki he fanga tokoua ʻo Kalaisí? Tau vakai angé ki he founga pē ʻe tolu. ʻUluakí, ʻaki ʻa e kau ʻaufuatō ʻi he ngāue fakamalangá. Naʻe fekauʻi ʻe Kalaisi ʻa hono fanga tokouá ke nau malangaʻi ʻa e ongoongo leleí ʻi māmani lahi. (Mt. 24:14) Kae kehe, ko e toenga ʻo e fanga tokoua ʻo Kalaisi ʻi he māmaní he ʻaho ní ʻe faingataʻa kia kinautolu ke fua ʻa e fatongia ko iá taʻekau ai ʻa e tokoni ʻa honau takanga ko e fanga sipi kehé.
