“Tuku hono fakafuo kimoutolu ki he fokotuʻutuʻu ko ení.”—LOMA 12:2.
1, 2. (a) Naʻe anga-fēfē ʻa e tali ʻa Sīsū ʻi he tala ange ʻe Pita ke ne anga-ʻofa kiate iá? (Sio ki he ʻuluaki fakatātā ʻi he kupú ni.) (e) Ko e hā naʻe tali pehē ai ʻa Sīsuú?
NAʻE ʻohovale ʻa e kau ākonga ʻa Sīsuú! Naʻa nau fakakaukau ʻe toe fakafoki mai ʻe Sīsū ʻa e puleʻanga ʻo ʻIsilelí, ka naʻe pehē ʻe Sīsū kuo vavé ni ke ne faingataʻaʻia peá ne mate. Naʻe muʻaki lea ʻa e ʻapositolo ko Pitá: “Anga-ʻofa muʻa kiate koe, ʻEiki; ʻe ʻikai teitei hoko ʻa e meʻá ni kiate koe.” Naʻe tali ange ʻe Sīsū: “ʻAlu ki mui Sētane! Ko ha tūkiaʻanga koe kiate au, koeʻuhi ʻokú ke fakakaukau, ʻo ʻikai ko e ngaahi fakakaukau ʻa e ʻOtuá, ka ko e ngaahi fakakaukau ʻa e tangatá.”—Māt. 16:21-23; Ngā. 1:6.

(1 Sio. 5:19) Naʻe fakaʻaiʻai ʻe Pita ʻa Sīsū ke ne maʻu ʻa e fakakaukau siokita ʻoku maʻu ʻe he kakai tokolahi ʻi he māmaní. Ka naʻe ʻiloʻi ʻe Sīsū naʻe fiemaʻu ia ʻe Sihova ke ne teuteu ki he faingataʻaʻia mo e mate kuó ne mei hokosiá. Naʻe hā mahino mei he tali ʻa Sīsuú naʻá ne tali ʻa e fakakaukau ʻa Sihová pea siʻaki fakaʻaufuli ʻa e fakakaukau ʻa e māmaní.

Kae fēfē ʻa e anga ʻo ʻetau fakakaukaú? ʻOku tau ngāue mālohi ke fakakaukau ʻo hangē ko Sihová, ʻa ia, ke vakai ki he ngaahi meʻá ʻo hangē ko ʻene vakai ki aí? Ko e fai peheé ʻoku fiemaʻu ki ai ha feinga lahi. Kae kehe, ʻoku faingofua ʻaupito ke fakakaukau ʻo hangē ko e kakai ʻi he māmaní. ʻOku peheé koeʻuhí ʻoku takatakai ʻiate kitautolu ʻa e laumālie ʻo e māmaní. (ʻEf. 2:2) Pehē foki, ʻoku faʻa tokangataha pē ʻa e kakai ʻi he māmaní kiate kinautolu pē, pea ʻe fakataueleʻi nai kitautolu ke fakakaukau ʻo hangē ko kinautolú. ʻIo, ʻoku faingataʻa ke fakakaukau ʻo hangē ko Sihová ka ʻoku faingofua ʻaupito ke fakakaukau ʻo hangē ko e kakai ʻi he māmaní.
4. (a) Ko e hā ʻe hoko kapau te tau fakaʻatā ʻa e māmaní ke ne tākiekina ʻetau fakakaukaú? (e) Ko e hā te tau ako ʻi he kupu ko ení?

Te tau lāulea ki he ngaahi ʻuhinga ʻoku hoko ai ʻa e vakai ki he ngaahi meʻá ʻo hangē ko Sihová ʻo ʻikai ke fuʻu fakataputapui, kae ʻaonga. Te tau toe lāulea ki he founga ʻe lava ke tau fakaʻehiʻehi ai mei hano fakafuo, pe tākiekina ʻe he fakakaukau ʻa e māmani ko ení. ʻI he kupu hono hokó, te tau ako ai ʻa e founga ʻe lava ke tau maʻu ai ʻa e fakakaukau ʻa Sihova fekauʻaki mo e ngaahi meʻa pau pea ʻai ʻene fakakaukaú ko ʻetau meʻa.

Naʻe ngaohi kitautolu ʻe Sihova ʻi he foungá ni. Ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻuhinga eni iá ʻoku tau maʻu ha tauʻatāina taʻefakangatangata. (Lau ʻa e 1 Pita 2:16.) ʻI he fiemaʻu ke tau ʻilo ʻa e meʻa ʻoku tonú pe halá, ʻoku fiemaʻu mai ʻe Sihova ke tau ngāueʻaki ʻa ʻene Folofolá ke tataki kitautolu. ʻOku fuʻu fakataputapui eni, pe ʻoku ʻaonga?

Ka, ʻoku teuʻi ʻe he ngaahi mātuʻá ʻenau fānaú ke nau lavameʻa ʻi he moʻuí. ʻI he tupu hake ʻa e fānaú ʻo mavahe mei ʻapí, te nau tauʻatāina ke fai ʻenau fili pē ʻanautolu.

(ʻAi. 48:17, 18) Ko ia ʻokú ne akoʻi mai ʻa e ngaahi tefitoʻi moʻoni tefito fekauʻaki mo e ʻulungaanga tāú mo e founga ʻoku totonu ke tau fakafeangaiʻaki ki he niʻihi kehé. ʻOkú ne fakaafeʻi mai ke tau ako ke vakai ki he ngaahi meʻá ʻi heʻene foungá pea moʻui ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene ngaahi tuʻungá. ʻOku ʻikai ke fuʻu fakataputapui eni. ʻI hono kehé, ʻokú ne ʻai kitautolu ke tau poto ange pea tokoniʻi kitautolu ke tau fai ha ngaahi fili lelei ange. (Saame 92:5; Pal. 2:1-5; ʻAi. 55:9) ʻE kei lava pē ke tau maʻu ha ngaahi saiʻia fakafoʻituitui, ka te tau fai ha ngaahi fili ʻa ia te ne ʻai kitautolu ke tau fiefia.

10 Naʻe pehē ʻe Sīsū: “ʻOku fakamoʻoniʻi ʻa e māʻoniʻoni ʻa potó ʻe heʻene ngaahi ngāué.” (Māt. 11:19) Neongo kuo fakalakalaka lahi ʻa e māmaní ʻi he tekinolosiá, kuo ʻikai malava ke ne solova ʻa e ngaahi palopalema lalahi ʻokú ne taʻofi ʻa ʻetau maʻu ha fiefiá, hangē ko e taú, lau-lanú, mo e faihiá. ʻIkai ko ia pē, ʻoku vakai ʻa e māmaní ki he fehokotaki fakasino taʻetāú ko ha meʻa pē ia ʻoku ala tali. Ka ʻoku fakahaaʻi ʻe he kakai tokolahi ʻoku veteki ʻe he meʻá ni ʻa e ngaahi fāmilí, fakatupunga ʻa e mahamahaki, pea ʻoku ʻi ai hono ngaahi nunuʻa kovi kehe. Fēfē ʻa e faleʻi ʻa Sihová?

(Ngā. 7:22; Saame 90:12) Ko ia naʻá ne kole kia Sihova: “ʻAi au ke u ʻiloʻi ho ngaahi halá.” (ʻEki. 33:13) Koeʻuhi naʻe fakaʻatā ʻe Mōsese ke fakafuo ʻe Sihova ʻene fakakaukaú, naʻe ngāueʻaki ia ʻe Sihova ʻi ha founga fakaofo ke ne fakahoko ʻa ʻEne taumuʻá pea ʻoange kia Mōsese ʻa e lāngilangi ʻaki ʻene ui ia ko ha tangata naʻá ne maʻu ha tui lahi.—Hep. 11:24-27.
