“Kotou Nonofo Mau i Taku Folafola”

“Kapau e kotou nonofo mau i taku folafola, pea ko aku tisipulo mooni koutou; pea e kotou iloi anai te mooni, pea e fakaateainai anai koutou e te mooni.”—SOANE 8:31, 32.

Koteā Ia Tona Fakaʼuhiga? ʼE fakaʼuhiga e Sesu ia te kupu folafola ki ʼana akonaki ʼaē ʼe haʼu mai he matapuna māʼoluga age. Neʼe ʼui fēnei e Sesu: “Ko te Tamai, ae nee ina fekaui mai au, nee ina fakatotonu mai kia au te mea ae e tonu ke au fakaha pea mo akonaki ki ai.” (Soane 12:49) Neʼe ʼui e Sesu ʼi tana faikole ki tana Tamai ʼaē ʼe ʼi Selō, ia Sehova ʼAtua: “Ko tau folafola ko te mooni ia.” Neʼe ko he agamāhani tana fakaʼaogaʼi ʼo fakatafito ʼana akonaki ki te Folafola ʼo te ʼAtua. (Soane 17:17; Mateo 4:4, 7, 10) Koia, ko te kau Kilisitiano moʼoni ʼe natou ‘taupau tana folafola,’ pea mo natou tali ia te Folafola ʼa te ʼAtua, ia te Tohi-Tapu, ʼe ko te “mooni” pea ʼo ʼuhiga mo te ʼu meʼa ʼaē ʼe natou tui kiai pea mo ʼanatou gāue ʼe natou fakatafito mālohi ki te Tohi-Tapu.

Neʼe Mulimuli Feafeaʼi Kiai Ia Te Kau ʼUluaki Kilisitiano? Neʼe fakaʼapaʼapa ia te ʼapositolo ko Paulo ki te Folafola ʼa te ʼAtua ohagē pē ko Sesu. Neʼe ina tohi fēnei: “E hau te Tohi tapu katoa mai te tuku manava a te Atua, pea e aoga ia.” (2 Timoteo 3:16) Neʼe hinoʼi ia te ʼu tagata ke natou akoʼi ia te ʼu tisipulo Kilisitiano ke natou “pipiki ia ki te folafola mooni o hage ko te akonaki nee ina tali.” (Tito 1:7, 9) Neʼe fakatokaga ia te kau ʼuluaki Kilisitiano ke natou liʼaki ia “te filosofia pea mo he kaka alunoa, o falala ki te talatisio a te u tagata, pea ki te u malohi fakalaumalie o te malamanei, kae mole kei fai kia Kilisito.”—Kolose 2:8.

Ko Ai ʼAē ʼe Mulimuli Ki Te Manatu ʼAia Iā ʼAho Nei? ʼE ʼui fēnei ʼi te tohi (Catechism of the Catholic Church): “ ʼE mole gata ʼaki pē ki te Tohi-Tapu ʼe maʼu ai e te Ekelesia [Katolika] ia te falala ʼaē ki te ʼu meʼa fuli neʼe kua fakahā. Ko te tupuʼaga lā ʼaia ʼe tonu ai ke tou tali pea mo fakamaʼuhigaʼi ia te Talatisio pea mo te Tohi-Tapu.” ʼI te ʼalatike ʼo te nusipepa (Maclean’s), ʼe talanoa ai ki te fafine takitaki lotu ʼi Toronto, ʼi Kanata, ʼe ina lagaʼi ia te fehuʼi ʼaenī: “He koʼē neʼe ʼaoga ke ʼi ai he ʼu fetogi ʼi te ʼu sēkulō e ʼuafulu ki muʼa atu moʼo takitaki ʼo tātou? ʼE tou maʼu ia he ʼu manatu ʼe lelei ʼo ʼuhiga mo te ʼu meʼa ʼaē ʼe ina fakalotovaivaiʼi tātou koteʼuhi ʼe tonu ke tou haga lagolago ki te ʼu manatu ʼaia ʼaki ia te ʼu akonaki ʼa Sesu pea mo te Tohi-Tapu.”

ʼE ʼui fēnei ʼi te tohi (New Catholic Encyclopedia) ʼo ʼuhiga mo te kau Fakamoʼoni ʼa Sehova: “Kiā nātou, ko te Tohi-Tapu tokotahi pē ʼaē ko te matapuna ʼo te tui pea mo te aga ʼaē ʼe tonu ke fai.” Heʼeki faʼa fualoa, neʼe fakatuʼu e te tagata ʼi Kanata ia te palalau ʼa te tuagaʼane ʼi tana ʼosi fakahā age ia ia. Neʼe ina ʼui fēnei age, ʼo ina tuhiʼi age tana Tohi-Tapu: “ ʼE au ʼiloʼi pē ko ai ia koe ʼuhi ko tou fakaʼiloga.”
