(Mt. 24:14) Ko e kau malanga faivelengá naʻa nau tofa ʻa e halá, hangē ko e laú, ki he faʻahinga kotoa te nau muimui ʻia kinautolú.

Ko e fakatātaá, ko Filipe naʻá ne ʻalu ki Samēlia, ʻa ia naʻe tokanga ai ha kakai tokolahi ki heʻene fakamatalá. (Ng. 8:5-8) Naʻe fononga ki he feituʻu lahi ʻa Paula mo e ngaahi kaungāmeʻa kehekehe, ʻi hono malangaʻi ʻa e pōpoaki faka-Kalisitiané ʻi Saipalo, ko e ngaahi konga ʻo ʻĒsia Maina, Masitōnia, Kalisi mo ʻĪtali. ʻI he ngaahi kolo ʻa ia naʻá ne malanga aí, naʻe hoko ai ko e kau tui ʻa e fuʻu tokolahi fakatouʻosi ʻi he kau Siú mo e Kalisí. (Ng. 14:1; 16:5; 17:4) Naʻe fakahoko ʻe Taitusi ha ngāue fakafaifekau ʻi Kēliti.

(1 Pita 1:1; 5:13) Ko ha ngaahi taimi fakafiefia moʻoni ia! Ne fuʻu faivelenga ʻa e kau malanga Kalisitiane ko ia he ʻuluaki senitulí ʻo taukaveʻi ai ʻe honau ngaahi filí kuo nau “fulihi a mamani.”—Ng. 17:6PM; Ng. 28:22.

(Ng. 13:48) ʻOku tohoakiʻi mai ʻe Sihova ʻa e kakai ko iá ki heʻene kautahá. (Lau ʻa e Hakeai 2:7.) Ko e hā e fakakaukau ki he ngāue fakafaifekau faka-Kalisitiané ʻoku fiemaʻu ke tau tauhi maʻu koeʻuhi ke fāitaha kakato ai mo e ngāue fakatahatahaʻi ko ení?

Fakakaukau angé ʻi ha mōmeniti: ʻIkai ʻokú ke houngaʻia he ko e tokotaha naʻe ʻuluaki lea atu kiate koe fekauʻaki mo e ngaahi moʻoni Fakatohitapú naʻe ʻikai te ne fakahaaʻi ha tomuʻa fehiʻa kiate koe? Ko ia ko e hā ke taʻotaʻofi ai mei hono fakahoko ha pōpoaki ʻoku lava ke fakahaofi ha moʻui ʻa ha taha pē nai ʻe fanonogo ki ai?—Lau ʻa e Mātiu 7:12.

8 Kuo hoko ʻa e kakai mei he meimei ʻātakai kotoa pē ko e kau sevāniti ʻa Sihova. Ko e fakatātā tuʻu-ki-muʻa ʻe taha ko Saula ʻo Tāsusí, ʻa ia naʻe hoko ʻo ʻiloa ko e ʻapositolo ko Paulá. Ko Saulá, ko ha Fālesi, ko ha tokotaha fakafepaki fakafili ia ʻo e kau Kalisitiané. Ko ʻene tuipau loto-moʻoni naʻa nau halá naʻe taki atu ai ia ke ne fakatangaʻi ʻa e fakatahaʻanga Kalisitiané.

Neongo ia, naʻe sio ʻa Sīsū ia ki he meʻa lelei ʻi he loto ʻo Saulá peá ne fili ia ke ne fakahoko ha fekau makehe. Ko hono olá, naʻe hoko ai ʻa Saula ko e taha ʻo e ngaahi mēmipa longomoʻui mo faivelenga taha ʻo e fakatahaʻanga Kalisitiane ʻi he ʻuluaki senitulí.

Kae kehe, ʻi he fakalakalaka ʻa ʻIkināsio peá ne ngāueʻaki ʻa e meʻa naʻá ne akó, ko e tokotaha houtamaki anga-fakamālohi ko eni ki muʻá naʻá ne hoko ko ha tokotaha anga-lelei. ʻOku ʻikai toe ngāueʻaki ia ʻe ha taha ke ne tānaki moʻua, neongo ia ʻoku fiemālie ʻa ʻIkināsio ʻi hono liliuʻi ʻe he ngaahi moʻoni ʻo e Tohi Tapú mo e laumālie ʻo e ʻOtuá ʻa hono angaʻitangatá. ʻOkú ne toe houngaʻia ʻi he taʻefilifilimānako ʻa e kau malanga ʻo e Puleʻangá ʻa ē naʻa nau fai ʻa e feinga ke ako mo iá.
