Ka ʻoku anga-fēfē ngāue ʻa e lotú? ʻE lava fēfē ke tokoniʻi kitautolu ʻe he lotú ke fakaʻehiʻehi ai mei hono lōmekina kitautolu ʻe he loto-moʻuá?—Saame 94:18, 19.

Naʻe tokanga ʻaupito ʻa Sīsū ki he anga ʻo e ongoʻi ʻa e niʻihi kehé. (Mk. 6:30-32) Hangē pē ko e talaʻofa ʻa Sīsū te ne tokoniʻi ʻa e kau ʻapositolo naʻe fononga holo mo iá, te ne tokoniʻi foki mo kitautolu ʻi he ʻahó ni. ʻOku ʻikai fiemaʻu ke tau fakataha mo Sīsū ka ne toki tokoniʻi kitautolu.

7 Naʻe talaʻofa ʻe Sīsū ʻe ʻomai ʻe heʻetau Tamaí ʻa e laumālie māʻoniʻoní ʻi he taimi ʻoku tau kole ai iá. (Luke 11:10-13) ʻE anga-fēfē ke tokoniʻi kitautolu ʻe he founga hono tolu ko ení ke fakasiʻisiʻi ʻa e loto-moʻuá? ʻOku tokoniʻi kitautolu ʻe he laumālie māʻoniʻoní pe ivi ngāue ʻo e ʻOtuá ke tau fakatupulekina ʻa e ngaahi ʻulungaanga lelei ʻoku maʻu ʻe hotau ʻOtua māfimafiʻiá. (Kol. 3:10) ʻI he Tohi Tapú, ʻoku ui ʻa e ngaahi ʻulungaanga ko ení ko e “fua ʻo e laumālié.” (Lau ʻa e Kalētia 5:22, 23.) ʻI he taimi ʻoku tau fakatupulekina ai ʻa e ngaahi ʻulungaanga lelei ko ení, ʻe lelei ange ai hotau vahaʻangatae mo e niʻihi kehé, pea te tau fakaʻehiʻehi ai mei he ngaahi tuʻunga te ne fakatupunga ʻa e loto-moʻuá. Tau vakai angé ki he anga hono tokoniʻi kitautolu ʻe he fua ʻo e laumālié ʻi he ngaahi founga pau.

Anga-fēfē? ʻI hoʻo fakahāhā ʻa e ʻofa fakatokouá, manavaʻofa lolotó mo e tokaʻí, ʻoku lava ke ke fakaʻehiʻehi ai mei he ngaahi tuʻunga ʻokú ne faʻa fakatupunga koe ke maʻu ʻa e ngaahi ongoʻi ʻikai lelei hangē ko e ʻitá, ongoʻi feifeitamakí mo e loto-mafasiá. ʻOku hoko eni ʻo faingofua ange ai ke tauhi maʻu ʻa e melino mo e niʻihi kehé.—Loma 12:10.
9 “Kātaki-fuoloa, anga-lelei, lelei.” ʻOku pehē ʻe he Tohi Tapú: “Hoko ʻo feangaleleiʻaki, manavaʻofa kaungāongoʻi, ʻo fefakamolemoleʻaki mātuʻaki loto-lelei.” (ʻEf. 4:32) ʻI he taimi te tau muimui ai ki he faleʻi ko iá, te tau maʻu ai ha vahaʻangatae melino mo e niʻihi kehé, pea te tau taʻofi ai ha ngaahi tuʻunga ʻe lava ke ne ʻai ai kitautolu ke tau loto-moʻua. Pehē foki, ʻe faingofua ange ai ke fekuki mo ha ngaahi tuʻunga ʻe malanga hake koeʻuhí ko ʻetau taʻehaohaoá.
10 “Tui.” ʻI he ʻahó ni, ʻoku tau faʻa loto-moʻua ki he paʻangá mo e ngaahi meʻa fakamatelié. (Pal. 18:11) ʻE lava fēfē ke tau fakaʻehiʻehi mei he faʻahinga loto-moʻua ko ení? Kuo pau ke tau muimui ki he akonaki ʻa e ʻapositolo ko Paulá ke tau “fiemālie pē ʻi he ngaahi meʻa lolotongá.” Ko e tui mālohi kia Sihová ʻe tokoniʻi ai kitautolu ke tau falala kiate ia te ne tokonaki anga-ʻofa mai ʻa e ngaahi meʻa ʻoku tau fiemaʻú. Kuó ne talaʻofa mai: “ʻE ʻikai ʻaupito te u mavahe meiate koe pea ʻe ʻikai ʻaupito te u liʻaki koe.” Ko e ʻuhinga ia ʻoku lava ke tau lea fakataha ai mo Paulá: “Ko Sihova ʻa hoku tokoní; ʻe ʻikai te u ilifia. Ko e hā ʻe lava ke fai mai ʻe he tangatá kiate au?”—Hep. 13:5, 6.
11 “Anga-malū, mapuleʻi-kita.” Fakakaukau ki he ʻaonga mo e tokoni te ke maʻu ʻi hoʻo fakahāhā ʻa e anga-maluú mo e mapuleʻi-kitá. Ko e ongo ʻulungaanga ko ení te ne maluʻi koe mei hono fai pe leaʻaki ha ngaahi meʻa te ne ʻai ai koe ke ke loto-moʻua aí, pea ʻe tokoni ia ke ke fakaʻehiʻehi ai mei he “loto-kona fakatupu koví, ʻitá, lilí, fekailangakí, mo e laukoví.”—ʻEf. 4:31.
12 ʻOku fiemaʻu ke ke anga-fakatōkilalo kae lava ke ke falala ki he “toʻukupu māfimafi ʻo e ʻOtuá” pea “lī atu hono kotoa ʻo [hoʻo] loto-moʻuá kiate ia.” (1 Pita 5:6, 7) Kapau ʻokú ke anga-fakatōkilalo, ʻe poupouʻi mo tokangaʻi koe ʻe Sihova. ʻI hoʻo ʻiloʻi ʻa e meʻa ʻokú ke lava ʻo faí mo e meʻa heʻikai ke ke lava ʻo faí, ʻe ʻikai te ke falala pē kiate koe. ʻE siʻisiʻi ai hoʻo loto-moʻuá koeʻuhí te ke falala pē ki he ʻOtuá.—Mai. 6:8.

13. Ko e hā naʻe ʻuhinga ki ai ʻa Sīsū ʻi heʻene pehē: “ʻOua ʻaupito naʻa loto-moʻua”?
13 ʻI he Mātiu 6:34 (lau), ʻoku tau maʻu ai ʻa e faleʻi fakapotopoto ʻa Sīsuú: “ʻOua ʻaupito naʻa loto-moʻua.” Ko e akonaki ko ení ʻoku hā ngali faingataʻa ke tau ngāueʻaki. Ka ko e hā naʻe ʻuhinga ki ai ʻa Sīsuú? ʻOku tau ʻiloʻi naʻe ʻi ai ʻa e taimi naʻe loto-moʻua ai ʻa Tēvita mo Paula. Naʻe ʻikai ke ʻuhinga ʻa Sīsuú, heʻikai ʻaupito ke ongoʻi loto-moʻua ʻa e faʻahinga ʻoku tauhi ki he ʻOtuá. ʻI hono kehé, naʻá ne tokoniʻi ʻene kau ākongá ke nau mahinoʻi ko e loto-moʻua ʻoku ʻikai fiemaʻú pe loto-moʻua tōtuʻá he ʻikai ke fakaleleiʻi ai ʻa e ngaahi palopalemá. ʻE ʻi ai ʻa e ngaahi pole ʻi he ʻaho taki taha, ko ia ʻoku ʻikai totonu ke fakalahi ʻe he kau Kalisitiané ʻenau loto-moʻuá ʻaki ʻenau fakakaukau ki he ngaahi palopalema ʻi he kuohilí pe palopalema ʻi he kahaʻú. ʻE lava fēfē ke tokoniʻi koe ʻe he faleʻi ʻa Sīsuú ke fakasiʻisiʻi ʻa e loto-moʻua tōtuʻá?
14. Hangē ko Tēvitá, ʻe lava fēfē ke ke fakasiʻisiʻi hoʻo loto-moʻuá?
14 ʻI he taimi ʻe niʻihi, ʻoku loto-moʻua ʻa e kakaí koeʻuhí ko e ngaahi fehālaaki naʻa nau fai ʻi he kuohilí. ʻOku nau ongoʻi halaia tōtuʻa nai fekauʻaki mo e meʻa naʻa nau faí, neongo kuo ʻosi atu ha ngaahi taʻu lahi mei ai. ʻI he taimi ʻe taha, naʻe ongoʻi lōmekina ʻa Tuʻi Tēvita koeʻuhí ko ʻene ngaahi fehālākí. Naʻá ne pehē: “Ne u kaila ʻi he toʻe ʻa hoku ʻatamai.” (Saame 38:3, 4, 8, 18) ʻI he tuʻunga ko iá, naʻe ngāue fakapotopoto ʻa Tēvita. Naʻá ne falala ki he meesi mo e fakamolemole ʻa Sihová. Pea naʻe fiefia leva ʻa Tēvita ʻi heʻene ʻiloʻi kuo fakamolemoleʻi ia ʻe Sihova.—Lau ʻa e Saame 32:1-3, 5.

15 ʻE ʻi ai ʻa e taimi te ke loto-moʻua nai ai fekauʻaki mo e ngaahi meʻa lolotongá. Ko e fakatātaá, ʻi he taimi naʻe tohi ai ʻe Tēvita ʻa e Saame 55, naʻá ne ilifia naʻa tāmateʻi ia. (Saame 55:2-5) Neongo ia, naʻe ʻikai ke ne tuku ʻa e loto-moʻuá ke maumauʻi ʻene falala-pau kia Sihová. Naʻe kōlenga ʻa Tēvita kia Sihova ke tokoniʻi ia mo hono ngaahi palopalemá, ka naʻá ne ʻiloʻi naʻe toe mahuʻinga ke ne fai ha meʻa fekauʻaki mo hono tuʻungá.
