Kamaloni: ʻIo. ʻI he Taniela 12:8 ʻoku pehē ai: “Pea ko e meʻa kiate au, naʻa ku fanongo ki ai ka naʻe ʻikai ʻuhinga kiate au.”

Soni: Ta ʻoku ʻikai ko au pē ʻoku ʻikai mahinoʻi ení.

Kamaloni: Ko hono moʻoní, naʻe ʻikai ke mahinoʻi ia ʻe Taniela koeʻuhí naʻe ʻikai ko e taimi ia ʻa e ʻOtuá ki he tangatá ke nau mahinoʻi kakato ʻa e ʻuhinga ʻo e ngaahi kikite ʻi he tohi ʻa Tanielá. Ka ʻi he taimí ni, ʻoku lava ke tau mahinoʻi kakato ia.

Kamaloni: Ki muʻa ke ta kamatá, te u fakanounouʻi atu pē ʻa e meʻa naʻe sio ki ai ʻa Tuʻi Nepukanesa ʻi heʻene misí. Peá ta toki lāulea leva ʻo fekauʻaki mo hono ʻuhingá.

Soni: Sai ia.

Kamaloni: ʻI he misí, naʻe sio ai ʻa Nepukanesa ki ha fuʻu ʻakau lahi fakaʻulia naʻe māʻolunga ʻo aʻu ki hēvani. Pea naʻá ne fanongo leva ki ha fekau mei he talafekau ʻa e ʻOtuá ko e fuʻu ʻakaú ʻe tuʻusi hifo. Kae kehe, naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻOtuá ke tuku pē ʻa hono tefitó ʻi he kelekelé. Hili ha “fituʻi kuonga” ʻe toe tupu ʻa e fuʻu ʻakaú.d Naʻe ʻuluaki fakahoko ʻa e kikite ko ení kia Tuʻi Nepukanesa tonu. Neongo naʻá ne hoko ko ha tuʻi tuʻu-ki-muʻa—ʻi hangē ko ha fuʻu ʻakau ʻoku aʻu ki hēvani—naʻe tuʻusi hifo ia ʻi ha “fituʻi kuonga.” ʻOkú ke manatuʻi ʻa e meʻa naʻe hokó?

Soni: ʻOku ʻikai ke u manatuʻi ia.

Kamaloni: Sai pē. ʻOku fakahaaʻi ʻe he Tohi Tapú naʻe mole meia Nepukanesa ʻene fakakaukau leleí ʻi ha taʻu ʻe fitu. ʻI he lolotonga ʻa e ngaahi taimi ko iá, naʻe ʻikai malava ke ne pule ko ha tuʻi. Ka ʻi he fakaʻosinga ʻo e fituʻi kuongá naʻe toe maʻu ai ʻe Nepukanesa ʻene fakakaukau leleí pea kamata ke toe pule.e

Soni: ʻOō, ko ʻene toki mahino eni kiate au ʻa e meʻa ʻokú ke ʻuhinga ki aí. Ka ko e hā ʻa e kaunga ʻo e ngaahi meʻa ko ení ki he Puleʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá mo e taʻu 1914?

Kamaloni: Te u fakanounouʻi atu, ko e kikite ko ení ʻoku fakahoko ia ʻi he tafaʻaki ʻe ua. Naʻe ʻuluaki fakahoko ia ʻi he taimi naʻe tuku fakataimi ai ʻa e pule ʻa Tuʻi Nepukanesá. Ko e fakahoko hono uá, naʻe kau ai ʻa hono tuku fakataimi ʻa e pule ʻa e ʻOtuá. Ko ia, ko hono fakahoko hono ua ko ení ʻoku fekauʻaki ia mo e Puleʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá.

Soni: ʻOkú ke ʻiloʻi fēfē ko e fakahoko hono ua ʻo e kikite ko iá ʻoku fekauʻaki ia mo e Puleʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá?

Kamaloni: Ko e meʻa ʻe taha, ʻokú ta maʻu ʻa e fakamoʻoni ʻi he kikité pē. Fakatatau ki he Taniela 4:17, naʻe ʻoatu ʻa e kikité “koeʻuhi ke ʻilo ʻe haʻa moʻui ʻoku hau ʻa Elioni ʻi he puleʻanga ʻo e tangata, pea ʻoku ne ʻatu ia kiate ia ʻoku ne finangalo ki ai.” ʻOkú ke fakatokangaʻi ʻa e fakamatala ki he “puleʻanga ʻo e tangata”?

Soni: ʻIo, ʻoku pehē ai ʻoku “hau ʻa Elioni ʻi he puleʻanga ʻo e tangata.”

Kamaloni: Ko ia. Ko hai ʻokú ke fakakaukau ko e “hau”?

Soni: ʻOku ou tui ko e ʻuhinga ia ki he ʻOtuá.

Kamaloni: Lelei ʻaupito. Ko ia ʻoku fakahaaʻi mai kiate kitautolu ʻoku ʻikai ʻuhinga pē ʻa e kikite ia ko ení kia Nepukanesa. ʻOku toe kau ki ai ʻa e “puleʻanga ʻo e tangata”—ʻa ia ko e tuʻunga-pule ia ʻa e ʻOtuá ki he faʻahinga ʻo e tangatá. Pea ʻoku ʻuhinga mālie ia ʻi heʻeta sio ko ia ki he kikite ʻi he konga tohí.

Soni: Ko e hā hoʻo ʻuhingá?

KO E KAVEINGA TEFITO ʻO E TOHÍ

Kamaloni: Ko e tohi ʻa Tanielá ʻoku lāulea maʻu pē ki he kaveinga tatau. ʻOku faʻa lāulea ai ki hono fokotuʻu ʻa e Puleʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá ʻi he malumalu ʻo e pule ʻa hono ʻAló, ʻa Sīsū. Ko e fakatātaá, toe foki angé ki he vahe ki muʻá. Te ke saiʻia ke ke lau mai ʻa e Taniela 2:44?

Soni: ʻIo. ʻOku pehē ai: “Ka ʻi he taimi ʻo e ngaahi tuʻi ko ia, ko e ʻOtua ʻo Langi te ne fokotuʻu ha puleʻanga ʻe ʻikai fulihi ʻo taʻengata; pea ko hono pule ʻe ʻikai tuku ki ha kakai kehe: ka te ne laiki mo fakaʻauha ʻa e ngaahi puleʻanga ko ia, kae tuʻu pe ia ʻo taʻengata.”

Kamaloni: Mālō. ʻOkú ke fakakaukau ʻoku ʻuhinga nai ʻa e veesi ko ení ki he Puleʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá?

Soni: ʻOō. ʻIkai tama ke u fuʻu fakapapauʻi.

Kamaloni: Sai, fakatokangaʻi ʻoku pehē ko e Puleʻanga ko ení ʻe “tuʻu pe ia ʻo taʻengata.” ʻOku malava ke hoa ia mo e Puleʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá, ka ʻoku ʻikai lava ke tau fakakaukau atu ʻoku ʻuhinga ki he pule fakaetangatá, ʻikai ko ia?

Soni: Ko ia.

Kamaloni: Ko e toe kikite eni ʻe taha ʻi he tohi ʻa Tanielá ʻoku ʻuhinga ki he Puleʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá. Ko e kikite ʻoku ʻasi ʻi he Taniela 7:13, 14. ʻI he fekauʻaki mo e tokotaha pule ʻi he kahaʻú, ʻoku pehē ʻe he kikité: “Naʻe tuku kiate ia ha hau, mo ha langilangi, mo ha pule, koeʻuhi ke tauhi kiate ia ʻe he ngaahi kakai, matakali, mo faʻahinga lea kehekehe: ko hono hau ko e hau taʻengata, ʻa ia ʻe ʻikai liua, pea ko hono puleʻanga ko e taha ʻe ʻikai ʻauha.” ʻOku ʻi ai ha meʻa ʻi he kikite ko ení ʻokú ke fakatokangaʻi?

Soni: ʻOku lave heni ki ha puleʻanga.

Kamaloni: Moʻoni ʻaupito. Pea ʻoku ʻikai ke toe ʻuhinga eni ia ki ha toe puleʻanga kehe. Fakatokangaʻi ʻoku pehē ko e Puleʻanga ko ení ʻoku ʻi ai hono mafai ki he “ngaahi kakai, matakali, mo faʻahinga lea kehekehe.” ʻI hono toe fakalea ʻe tahá, ko e Puleʻanga ko ení te ne puleʻi kotoa ʻa e māmaní.

Soni: Naʻe ʻikai teu ʻiloʻi ko e ʻuhinga ia ʻo e konga tohí, ka ʻokú ke moʻoni. He ko e meʻa ia ʻoku leaʻaki hení.

Kamaloni: Toe fakatokangaʻi ʻa e meʻa ʻoku leaʻaki ʻe he kikité: “Ko hono hau ko e hau taʻengata, ʻa ia ʻe ʻikai liua, pea ko hono puleʻanga ko e taha ʻe ʻikai ʻauha.” ʻIkai ʻokú ke loto-tatau ko e kikite ko ení ʻoku meimei tatau ia mo e meʻa naʻá ta toki lau ʻi he Taniela 2:44?

Soni: ʻIo, ko ia.

Kamaloni: Ta fakamanatu nounou angé ʻa e meʻa naʻá ta ʻosi lāulea ki aí. Ko e kikite ʻi he Taniela vahe 4 naʻe ʻoatu ia koeʻuhí ke ʻilo ʻa e kakaí “ʻoku hau ʻa Elioni ʻi he puleʻanga ʻo e tangata.” ʻOku fakahaaʻi ai ko e kikite ko ení ʻoku ʻi ai ʻene fakahoko lahi ange ʻo ʻikai ko e fekauʻaki pē mo Nepukanesa. Pea ʻi he hoko atu ʻa e tohi ʻa Tanielá, ʻokú ta ʻilo ai ʻa e ngaahi kikite fekauʻaki mo hono fokotuʻu ko ia ʻa e Puleʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá ʻi he malumalu ʻo e tuʻunga-pule ʻa hono ʻAló. Ko ia ai, ʻokú ke fakakaukau ʻoku ʻuhinga lelei nai ke ke fakaʻosiʻaki, ko e kikite ko eni ʻi he Taniela vahe 4 ʻoku toe fekauʻaki ia mo e Puleʻanga ʻo e ʻOtuá?

Soni: ʻOku ʻuhinga lelei ia. Ka ʻoku ʻikai ke u mahinoʻi ʻa ʻene fehokotaki mo e 1914.
