³ Ko e fakamatala fakaueʻiloto ko ʻení ʻoku fakamatala ai ki ha maka-maile ʻi he lotu moʻoní​—ʻa ia ko hono fokotuʻu ʻa e puleʻanga ko ʻIsileli fakalaumālié, ʻa e fakatahaʻanga ʻo e kau Kalisitiane paní. (Kal. 6:16) Ka ʻoku toe ʻi ai ha meʻa lahi ange. ʻI he taimi naʻe lea ai ʻa Pita ki he fuʻu kakaí ʻi he ʻaho ko iá, naʻá ne ngāueʻaki ʻa e ʻuluaki kī ʻo e “ngaahi kī [ʻe tolu] ʻo e Puleʻanga,” ʻa ia ko e kī taki taha te ne fakaava mai ha ngaahi monū makehe ki ha toe faʻahinga kakai kehe.

Ko e hā ʻe lava ke ako ʻe he kau Kalisitiane he ʻaho ní mei he ngaahi meʻa mahuʻinga naʻe hoko ʻi he Penitekosi ʻo e 33 T.S.?

Pea ko e kamataʻanga pē ia ʻo e tupu ʻo ha kautaha ʻa ia ʻoku hokohoko atu ʻene tupu lahí ʻo aʻu mai ki he ʻahó ni! ʻIo, ko ha kulupu ʻo e kakai tangata mo e kakai fefine manavahē-ʻOtua​—ʻa ia ko e fakatahaʻanga Kalisitiane ʻi onopōní​—ʻoku fakafou ai ʻa e hoko ʻa e “ongoongo lelei . . . ʻo e Puleʻangá” ʻo “malangaʻi ia ʻi he kotoa ʻo e māmani kuo nofoʻí ko ha fakamoʻoni ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē” ki muʻa ke ngata ʻa e fokotuʻutuʻu lolotongá ni.​—Māt. 24:14.

 5. Ko e hā ʻa e tāpuaki ʻe hoko mai mei he feohi mo e fakatahaʻanga Kalisitiané, fakatouʻosi ʻi he ʻuluaki senitulí pea mo e ʻahó ni?

⁵ Ko e fakatahaʻanga Kalisitiané ʻe toe hoko foki ia ko ha matavai ʻo e fakaivimālohi fakalaumālie ki hono kau mēmipá, fakatouʻosi ʻa e faʻahinga ʻoku kau ki he kau paní pea ki mui ai, ko e faʻahinga ʻoku kau ki he “fanga sipi kehe.” (Sione 10:16) Naʻe fakahaaʻi ʻe Paula ʻene houngaʻia ki he fetokoniʻaki naʻe fakahoko ʻe he kau mēmipa ʻo e fakatahaʻangá ʻi heʻene tohi ki he kau Kalisitiane ʻi Lomá: “ʻOku ou fakaʻamu ke u sio kiate kimoutolu, ke u ʻoatu ha meʻaʻofa fakalaumālie kiate kimoutolu koeʻuhi ke ʻai ai kimoutolu ke mou tuʻu mālohi; pe, ʻikai ko ia pē, ka ke tau fefakalototoʻaʻaki fakafou ʻi he tui ʻa e tokotaha taki taha, fakatouʻosi haʻamoutolú tui mo haʻakú.”​—Loma 1:11, 12.

Naʻe ʻoange ʻe Sīsū ki heʻene kau ākongá ha ngāue faingataʻa kae fakafiefia ʻaupito ke nau fakahoko. Naʻá ne tala ange kiate kinautolu: “Ngaohi ko e kau ākonga ʻa e kakai ʻo e ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē, ʻo papitaiso kinautolu ʻi he huafa ʻo e Tamaí mo e ʻAló mo e laumālie māʻoniʻoní, pea akoʻi kinautolu ke nau tauhi ʻa e ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē kuó u fekau atu kiate kimoutolú.”​—Māt. 28:19, 20.

Ka neongo ia, kuo faʻu ʻe he Kau Fakamoʻoni ʻa Sihová ʻa e fakamatala makatuʻunga ʻi he Tohi Tapú ʻi he ngaahi lea ʻoku laka hake ʻi he 1,000. Kapau ʻokú ke lolotonga feohi longomoʻui mo e fakatahaʻanga Kalisitiané pea ʻokú ke kau ʻi he ngāue malangaʻi ʻo e Puleʻangá mo e ngaohi-ākongá, ʻoku ʻi ai ʻa e ʻuhinga ke ke fiefia ai. ʻOku lau koe ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo e kiʻi tokosiʻi ʻi he māmaní ʻi he ʻahó ni ʻoku nau maʻu ʻa e monū ʻo e faifakamoʻoni fakaʻāuliliki ki he huafa ʻo Sihová!

 8. Ko e hā ʻa e tokoni ʻoku tau maʻu fakafou ʻi he fakatahaʻanga Kalisitiané?

⁸ Ke tokoniʻi koe ke ke kātaki fakataha mo e fiefia lolotonga ʻa e ngaahi taimi fakalilifu ko ení, kuo tokonaki mai ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtuá ha feohiʻanga fakamāmanilahi ʻo e fanga tokoua. Naʻe tohi ʻa Paula ki he kau Kalisitiane Hepeluú: “Tuku ke tau fetokangaʻaki koeʻuhi ke fakaʻaiʻai ai kitautolu ki he ʻofá mo e ngaahi ngāue leleí, ʻo ʻoua ʻe liʻaki ʻa ʻetau fakataha fakatahatahá, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku angaʻaki ʻe he niʻihi, kae fefakalototoʻaʻaki, pea toe ʻāsili angé ʻi hoʻomou sio ko ia ki he fakaofiofi mai ʻa e ʻahó.” (Hep. 10:24, 25) Ko e fakatahaʻanga Kalisitiané ko ha tokonaki ia meia Sihova koeʻuhí ke ke lava ai ʻo fakalototoʻaʻi ʻa e niʻihi kehé pea toe fakalototoʻaʻi foki ai mo koe. Nofo ofi ki ho fanga tokoua mo e fanga tuofāfine fakalaumālié. ʻOua ʻaupito naʻa liʻaki ʻa e fakatahataha fakataha ʻi he ngaahi fakataha faka-Kalisitiané!

Ka ʻi he taimi ia ko ení, “naʻe fanongo ʻa e tokotaha taki taha [ki he kau ākongá] ki heʻenau lea mai ʻaki ʻa ʻenau taki taha lea.” (Ngā. 2:6) ʻOku pau pē naʻe maongo ki he kau fanongo ko iá ke fanongo ki he ongoongo leleí ʻi heʻenau lea tuʻufonuá. Ko e moʻoni, ko e kau Kalisitiane ʻi he ʻaho ní ʻoku ʻikai ke nau maʻu ʻa e meʻaʻofa ʻo ha malava fakaemana ke lea ʻi he ngaahi lea mulí.
