Naʻa Nau Fai ʻa e Finangalo ʻo Sihová
Fakahoko ʻe he Moʻungaʻi Tangata Lahi Tahá ha Ngāue Anga-Fakatōkilalo
NAʻE ʻilo ʻe Sīsū ʻe mātuʻaki mahuʻinga ʻa hono ngaahi houa fakaʻosi mo ʻene kau ʻapositoló. ʻE ʻikai fuoloa, kuo puke ia, pea ʻe ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻa ʻene tuí ʻo laka ange ʻi ha toe taimi. Naʻe toe lāuʻilo ʻa Sīsū ʻoku ʻi ai ʻa e ngaahi tāpuaki lahi ʻoku hanga mai mei muʻa. ʻE vave pē hano hakeakiʻi ia ki he nima toʻomataʻu ʻo e ʻOtuá pea ʻe foaki ange kiate ia “ha hingoa ʻoku maʻolunga ʻi he hingoa kotoa pe: koeʻuhi ke ʻilonga ha tui ʻi Langi mo Mamani mo Lolofonua pea peluki ʻi he huafa ʻo Sisu.”—Filipai 2:9, 10.
Kae kehe, naʻe ʻikai hanga ʻe heʻene pekia naʻe tuʻunuku maí pe ko ʻene vēkeveke ki hono pale kuo talaʻofá ʻo fakaleluʻi ʻa Sīsū mei he ngaahi fiemaʻu ko ia ʻa ʻene kau ʻapositoló. Naʻá ne “ʻofa kiate kinautolu ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻangá,” ko hono hiki ia ki mui ʻe Sione ʻi heʻene Kōsipelí. (Sione 13:1, NW) Pea ʻi he ngaahi houa mahuʻinga fakaʻosi ko eni ʻo ʻene moʻuí ʻi he tuʻunga ko ha tangata haohaoá, naʻe akoʻi ai ʻe Sīsū ki heʻene kau ʻapositoló ha lēsoni mātuʻaki mahuʻinga.
Ko ha Lēsoni Fekauʻaki mo e Anga-Fakatōkilaló
Naʻe ʻi ha loki ʻi ʻolunga ʻi Selusalema ʻa e kau ʻapositoló mo Sīsū ke kātoangaʻi ʻa e Pāsová. Ki muʻa atú, ne ʻosi fanongo ʻa Sīsū ki heʻenau fekīhiaki pe ko hai naʻe māʻolunga taha ʻiate kinautolú. (Mātiu 18:1; Maake 9:33, 34) Naʻá ne ʻosi fetalanoaʻaki mo kinautolu ʻi he meʻá ni pea naʻá ne ʻosi feinga ke fakatonutonu ʻa e anga ʻo ʻenau fakakaukaú. (Luke 9:46) Kae kehe, ʻi he taimí ni, naʻe fakamamafaʻi ʻe Sīsū ia ʻa e ngaahi lēsoni ko iá ʻo ngāueʻaki ha fakahūhū ʻoku kehe. Naʻá ne fili ke ʻoua ʻe talanoa pē kiate kinautolu ʻo fekauʻaki mo e anga-fakatōkilaló ka ke fakahāhā ia.
Ko Sīsuú, “naʻa ne tuʻu mei he kai, ʻo ne tuku hono ngaahi kofu tuʻa,” ko e tohi ia ʻe Sioné. “ʻO ne toʻo ha tauveli, ʻo ne noʻo. Pea ne toki lilingi ha vai ki he kumete, ʻo ne hanga ʻo fufulu ʻa e vaʻe ʻo e kau ako, mo ne holoholo ʻaki ʻa e tauveli kuo ne noʻo ʻaki.”—Sione 13:4, 5.
ʻI he ʻea māfana ko ia ʻo e Hahake Lotolotó he kuonga muʻá, naʻe faʻa tui ai ʻe he kakaí ʻa e ngaahi sū senitolo ʻi heʻenau fononga ʻi he ngaahi hala efuá. ʻI haʻanau hū ki ha fale ʻo ha taha lāuvale, ʻe fakafeʻiloaki mai ha tokotaha talitali, ʻa ia te ne tokonaki mai ha ngaahi kumete mo ha vai ke fufulu ai honau vaʻé. ʻI he ngaahi ʻapi tuʻumālie angé, ʻe fakahoko nai ʻe ha tamaioʻeiki ʻa e ngāue ko ia ko hono fufulu ʻo e vaʻé.—Fakamaau 19:21; 1 Samiuela 25:40-42.
ʻI he loki ʻi ʻolungá, ko Sīsū mo ʻene kau ʻapositoló naʻe ʻikai ko ha kau fakaafe ia ʻa ha taha. Naʻe ʻikai ke ʻi ai ha tokotaha talitali ia ke ne tokonaki ʻa e ngaahi kumeté, pea naʻe ʻikai ke ʻi ai ha kau tamaioʻeiki ia ke nau fai ʻa e fufulu vaʻé. ʻI he taimi naʻe kamata ke fufulu ai ʻe Sīsū honau vaʻé, naʻe fakalanga ai ha ongoʻi mā ʻi he kau ʻapositoló. Ko eni ko e Tokotaha ē naʻe lahi taha ʻiate kinautolú kuó ne fakahoko ʻa e ngāue anga-fakatōkilalo tahá!
ʻI he kamatá, naʻe fakafisi ʻa Pita ke ʻai ʻa Sīsū ke ne fufulu hono vaʻé. Ka naʻe tala ange ʻe Sīsū kiate ia: “Kapau ʻe ʻikai te u fufulu koe, ta ʻoku ʻikai haʻo kau mo au.” ʻI he taimi naʻe ʻosi ai hono fufulu ʻe Sīsū ʻa e vaʻe kotoa ʻo ʻene kau ʻapositoló, naʻá ne tala ange: “ʻOku mahino kiate kimoutolu ʻa e meʻa kuo u fai kiate kimoutolu? ʻOku mou ui au ko Lapai, mo ʻEiki: pea ʻoku totonu hoʻomou lea pehe; he ko au ia. Pea kapau ā kuo u fufulu homou vaʻe, ʻa au ko e ʻEiki mo e Lapai; pea ʻoku totonu ke fai ʻekimoutolu foki, ʻo fefufuluʻaki homou vaʻe ʻomoutolu. He kuo u tuku hamou faʻifaʻitakiʻanga, koeʻuhi ke mou fai foki, ʻo hange ko ʻeku fai kiate kimoutolu.”—Sione 13:6-15.
Naʻe ʻikai ko e fokotuʻu ia ʻe Sīsū ha ouau fufulu vaʻe. Ka, ko ʻene tokoniʻi ʻe ia ʻa ʻene kau ʻapositoló ke ohi ha faʻunga fakakaukau foʻou—ʻa ia ʻoku anga-fakatōkilaló mo ha loto-lelei ke fakahoko ʻa e ngaahi ngāue māʻulalo tahá koeʻuhi ko honau fanga tokouá. ʻOku hā mahino, naʻe mahino kiate kinautolu. Fakakaukau atu ki he meʻa naʻe hoko ʻi he ngaahi taʻu ki mui ai ʻi he taimi naʻe malanga hake ai ʻa e tuʻunga-lea fekauʻaki mo e kamú. Neongo naʻe ʻi ai “ʻenau fakakikihi,” ko e faʻahinga naʻe ʻi aí naʻa nau tauhi maʻu ha fokotuʻutuʻu maau pea naʻa nau fanongo anga-fakaʻapaʻapa ki he ngaahi fakakaukau ʻa e niʻihi kehe taki taha. ʻIkai ko ia pē, ʻoku hangehangē ko e tokotaha ko ia naʻá ne tokangaʻi ʻa e fakatahá ko e ākonga ko Sēmisí—ʻikai ko ha taha ʻo e kau ʻapositoló, ʻo hangē ko ia te tau ʻamanekina nai, koeʻuhi he naʻa nau ʻi ai. Ko e fakaikiiki ko eni ʻi he tohi Ngāué ʻoku fakahā ai ko e kau ʻapositoló ne nau ʻosi fai ha fakalakalaka lahi ʻaupito ʻi hono fakahāhā ʻa e anga-fakatōkilaló.—Ngāue 15:6-29.
Lēsoni Kiate Kitautolu
ʻI hono fufulu ko ia ʻa e vaʻe ʻo ʻene kau ākongá, naʻe tokonaki mai ai ʻe Sīsū ha lēsoni mālohi ʻi he anga-fakatōkilaló. Ko e moʻoni, ʻoku ʻikai totonu ki he kau Kalisitiané ke nau fakakaukau ʻoku nau mahuʻinga fau ke totonu maʻu pē ai ki he niʻihi kehé ke tauhi kinautolu, pe totonu ke nau kumi ki ha ngaahi tuʻunga lāngilangi mo ongoongoa. ʻI hono kehé, ʻoku totonu ke nau muimui ʻi he sīpinga naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe Sīsuú, ʻa ia “naʻe ʻikai te ne haʻu ke maʻu sevaniti, ka ke sevaniti pe ʻe ia, pea ke tuku ʻene moʻui ke huhuʻiʻaki ha tokolahi.” (Mātiu 20:28) ʻIo, ko e kau muimui ʻo Sīsuú ʻoku totonu ke nau loto-lelei ke fakahoko ʻa e ngaahi ngāue anga-fakatōkilalo tahá ʻiate kinautolu taki taha.
Ko e ʻuhinga lelei ia naʻe tohi ai ʻe Pita: “Mou noʻo kotoa pe ʻaki ʻa e fefakavaivaiʻaki: he ʻoku tali tekeʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻa e ʻafungi, ka ʻoku ne foaki kelesi ki he angavaivai.” (1 Pita 5:5) Ko e foʻi lea faka-Kalisi ki he “noʻo” ko e haʻu ia mei he foʻi lea ʻoku ʻuhingá ko e “ʻēpani ʻo ha tamaioʻeiki,” ʻa ia ʻokú ne nonoʻo ha teunga ngakōkō ʻi loto. Ko e lave nai eni ʻa Pita ki hono hanga ʻe Sīsū ʻo noʻo ʻa e tauvelí mo fufulu ʻa e vaʻe ʻo ʻene kau ʻapositoló? ʻOku ʻikai lava ke fakapapauʻi ʻa e meʻá ni. Ka neongo ia, ko e ngāue anga-fakatōkilalo ʻa Sīsuú naʻe maongo taʻemangalo ia ʻi he loto ʻo Pitá, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku totonu ke hoko ki he loto ʻo e faʻahinga kotoa pē ʻe hoko ko e kau muimui ʻo Kalaisí.—Kolose 3:12-14.
