Lolotonga ʻene ʻi he māmaní, ko Sīsuú naʻá ne “maʻumea ki he Otua.” (Luke 12:21, PM) Hili ʻene toetuʻú, naʻe fakapaleʻi ia ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻi hono fakakalauniʻaki ia “ʻa e langilangi mo e fakaʻapaʻapaʻia.” Naʻe hakeakiʻi ʻe Sihova ʻa hono ʻAló “ki ha tuʻunga māʻolunga ange pea foaki anga-ʻofa ange kiate ia ʻa e hingoa ʻa ia ʻoku māʻolunga ia ʻi he hingoa kehe kotoa pē.” (Hepelu 2:9; Filipai 2:9, NW) Ko e ʻalunga moʻui ʻa Sīsuú naʻá ne ʻai ʻa e loto ʻo Sihová ke fiefia. (Palovepi 27:11) Ko ʻene moʻui fakaemāmaní naʻe lavameʻa ia koeʻuhi naʻá ne lavaʻi ʻa ʻene taumuʻá. Naʻe fai ʻe Sīsū ʻa e finangalo ʻo e ʻOtuá pea ʻomai ʻa e fakaʻapaʻapaʻia ki Hono huafá.

Ko e ngaahi tufakangá ni kotoa ʻoku haʻu ia meia Sihova, ʻa ia ʻokú ne foaki “ki he mea kotoabe ae moui, moe mānava.” (Ngāue 17:25, PM) ʻI he ʻikai ha moʻuí, ʻe ʻikai hano ʻaonga ʻo e ngaahi tufakangá ni.

Ko hai ʻa e talavou ko ení? Ko hono hingoá ko Saula. Ka naʻe hoko ʻa Saula ko ha Kalisitiane pea faifai pē ʻo ne hoko ko e ʻapositolo ko Paulá.

Hili ʻene fakamoleki ʻa e meimei taʻu ʻe 30 ʻi he tuʻunga ko ha misinalé, naʻe fai ʻe Paula ha tohi ki hono ngaahi kaumeʻa ʻi Filipaí. ʻI he tohí naʻá ne fakamanatu ai ʻa e niʻihi ʻo ʻene ngaahi lavameʻa ʻi he kuohilí ki muʻa ke ne hoko ko ha Kalisitiané, pea naʻá ne pehē leva: “Aia [Sīsū Kalaisi] kuou kataki ai hono liaki oe gaahi mea kotoabe, bea oku ou lau ia koe kinohaa, kae kehe keu maʻu a Kalaisi.” (Filipai 3:8, PM) ʻIkai, naʻe ʻikai ke fakaʻiseʻisa ʻa Paula ʻi he founga naʻá ne ngāueʻaki ki ai ʻa ʻene moʻuí!

ʻI he tuʻunga tatau he ʻahó ni, kuo malava ʻa e niʻihi ke ngāueʻaki honau ngaahi tufakangá mo e ngaahi talēnití pea naʻa mo ʻenau akó ke fakalahi ʻa e ngaahi meʻa ʻo e Puleʻangá.
