Ko e Ngāue Lahi Taha ʻo e ʻOfá

4. Naʻe anga-fēfē ʻa e hoko ʻa ha sōtia Loma ʻo ʻiloʻi naʻe ʻikai ko ha tangata anga-maheni pē ʻa Sīsū, pea ko e hā naʻe fakaʻosiʻaki ʻe he sōtia ko iá?

⁴ Ko e senituliō Loma ko ia naʻá ne tokangaʻi ʻa e tāmateʻi ʻo Sīsuú naʻe fakatumutumu ia fakatouʻosi ʻi he fakapoʻuli naʻe hoko ki muʻa ʻi he pekia ʻa Sīsuú pea mo e mofuike mālohi naʻe hoko ki mui aí. “Ta koe mooni koe Alo eni oe Otua,” ko ʻene leá ia. (Mātiu 27:54, PM) ʻOku hā mahino, naʻe ʻikai ko ha tangata anga-maheni pē ʻa Sīsū. Naʻe tokoni ʻa e sōtia ko iá ki he tāmateʻi ʻa e ʻAlo tofu-pē-taha-ne-fakatupu ʻo e ʻOtua Fungani Māʻolungá! Naʻe mātuʻaki mahuʻinga fēfē ʻa e ʻAlo ko ʻení ki heʻene Tamaí?

5. ʻE anga-fēfē nai hono fakatātaaʻi ʻa e fuʻu vahaʻa taimi kāfakafa ko ia naʻe nofo fakataha ai ʻa Sihova mo hono ʻAló ʻi hēvaní?

⁵ ʻOku ui ʻe he Tohitapú ʻa Sīsū “koe uluaki fanau i he mea fakatubu kotoabe.” (Kolose 1:15, PM) Fakakaukau angé​—ko e ʻAlo ʻo Sihová naʻe ʻi ai ia ki muʻa ʻi he ʻuniveesi fakamatelié. Ko e hā leva hono lōloa ʻo e fakataha ʻa e Tamaí mo e ʻAló? ʻOku fakafuofua ʻe he kau saienisi ʻe niʻihi ʻo pehē ʻoku taʻu 13 piliona ʻa e motuʻa ʻo e ʻunivēsí. ʻE lava ke ke sioloto atu ki he fuʻu taimi lahi ko iá? Ke tokoniʻi ʻa e kakaí ke nau mahinoʻi ʻa e motuʻa ʻo e ʻunivēsí ʻo hangē ko ia ko e fakafuofuaʻi ʻe he kau saienisí, ʻoku fakaeʻa ʻi ha fale ki hono fakafuofua ʻo e tuʻuʻanga palanité ha laine tala-taimi ʻoku mita ʻe 110 hono lōloá. ʻI he luelue ʻa e kau ʻaʻahí ʻi he laine tala-taimi ko iá, ko e foʻi manga taki taha ʻoku nau faí ʻokú ne fakafofongaʻi ʻa e taʻu ʻe 75 miliona nai ʻi he moʻui ʻa e ʻunivēsí. ʻI he ngataʻanga ʻo e laine tala-taimí, ko e kotoa ʻo e hisitōlia ʻo e tangatá ʻoku fakafofongaʻi ia ʻe ha kiʻi foʻi maaka ʻe taha ʻoku matolu tatau mo ha kiʻi fulufuluʻi ʻulu ʻe taha ʻo e tangatá! Kae kehe, neongo kapau ʻoku tonu ʻa e fakafuofua ko ʻení, ko e laine tala-taimí fakakātoa ʻe ʻikai ke lōloa feʻunga ia ke ne fakafofongaʻi ʻa e taimi ʻo e moʻui ʻa e ʻAlo ʻo Sihová! Naʻe anga-fēfē ʻene ngāue ʻi he lolotonga ʻo e ngaahi kuonga kotoa ko iá?

6. (a) Naʻe anga-fēfē ʻa e ngāue ʻa e ʻAlo ʻo Sihová ʻi he lolotonga ʻene ʻi ai ki muʻa ke hoko ko e tangatá? (e) Ko e hā ʻa e faʻahinga haʻi ʻoku ʻi ai ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo Sihova mo hono ʻAló?

⁶ Naʻe ngāue fiefia ʻa e ʻAló ʻi he tuʻunga ko e “tufunga pōtoʻi” ʻa ʻene Tamaí. (Palōveepi 8:30, NW) ʻOku pehē ʻe he Tohitapú: “Naʻe ʻikai ha momoʻi meʻa ʻe taha ʻe hoko mai, ʻo ʻataʻatā [mei he ʻAló].” (Sione 1:3) Ko ia ai, naʻe ngāue fakataha ʻa Sihova mo hono ʻAló ke ʻomai ʻa e ngaahi meʻa kehe kotoa pē ke nau ʻi ai. Ko ha ngaahi taimi fakatoʻoaloto mo fakafiefia moʻoni ē naʻá na maʻú! Sai, ʻe loto-tatau ʻa e tokolahi ko e ʻofa ko ia ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo ha mātuʻa mo ha kiʻi tamá ʻoku fakaofo ʻene mālohí. Pea ko e ʻofá “ko ha fakamaʻu haohaoa ia ʻo e fāʻūtahá.” (Kolose 3:14, NW) Ko ia ai, ko hai ʻiate kitautolu, ʻe lava ke ne kamata ke mahinoʻi ʻa e mālohi ʻo ha haʻi kuo ʻi ai ʻi ha fuʻu vahaʻa taimi lahi fakaʻulia pehē? ʻOku hā mahino, ko Sihova ko e ʻOtuá mo hono ʻAló ʻoku fakafāʻūtahaʻi ʻe he haʻi mālohi taha ʻo e ʻofá kuo fokotuʻú.

7. ʻI he taimi naʻe papitaiso ai ʻa Sīsuú, naʻe anga-fēfē hono fakahāhaaʻi ʻe Sihova ʻene ngaahi ongoʻi fekauʻaki mo hono ʻAló?

⁷ Ka neongo ia, naʻe fekauʻi mai ʻe he Tamaí hono ʻAló ki he māmaní ke ʻaloʻi mai ko ha pēpē fakaetangata. Ko hono fai iá naʻe ʻuhinga ia ai ko ha ngaahi hongofuluʻi taʻu, naʻe pau ai kia Sihova ke ne tukuange ʻa e feohi fekoekoeʻi mo hono ʻAlo ʻofaʻangá ʻi hēvani. ʻI he mahuʻingaʻia lahi ʻaupitó, naʻá ne ʻafio mai ai mei hēvani ki he tupu hake ʻa Sīsū ʻo hoko ko ha tangata haohaoá. ʻI he aʻu ki hono taʻu 30 nai, naʻe papitaiso ai ʻa Sīsū. ʻOku ʻikai ko ha meʻa ia ke tau toe hela fakamahaloʻi ʻa hono lahi ʻo e ongoʻi ʻa Sihova fekauʻaki mo iá. Naʻe folofola tonu hifo ʻa e Tamaí mei hēvani: “Ko hoku Alo Ofaaga eni, aia oku ou fiemalie lahi ai.” (Mātiu 3:17, PM) ʻI he vakai hifo ki hono fai loto-tōnunga ʻe Sīsū ʻa e meʻa kotoa pē naʻe kikiteʻí, ʻa e meʻa kotoa pē naʻe kole kiate iá, kuo pau pē naʻe fiefia lahi ʻaupito ai ʻa ʻene Tamaí!​—Sione 5:36; 17:4.

8, 9. (a) Ko e hā ʻa e meʻa naʻe fou ai ʻa Sīsū ʻi Nīsani 14, 33 T.S., pea naʻe anga-fēfē hono uesia ai ʻa ʻene Tamai fakahēvaní? (e) Ko e hā naʻe fakaʻatā ai ʻe Sihova hono ʻAló ke faingataʻaʻia pea pekiá?

⁸ Kae kehe, naʻe anga-fēfē ʻa e ongoʻi ʻa Sihova ʻi Nīsani 14, 33 T.S.? Naʻe anga-fēfē ʻene ongoʻí ʻi hono lavakiʻi ʻo Sīsuú pea toki puke atu ia ʻe ha fuʻu kakai tokolahi ʻi he poʻulí? ʻI hono liʻaki ʻa Sīsū ʻe hono ngaahi kaumeʻá pea fakamoʻulaloaʻi ia ki ha hopo taʻefakalaó? ʻI hono lumaʻi iá, ʻanuhi, pea tukiʻí? ʻI hono uipi iá, ʻo mafaʻafaʻa ʻa hono tuʻá? ʻI hono tukifaʻo iá, ʻa e ongo nimá mo e ongo vaʻé, ki ha fuʻu pou ʻakau pea tautau ai ia lolotonga hono leakoviʻi ʻe he kakaí? Naʻe anga-fēfē ʻa e ongoʻi ʻa e Tamaí ʻi he kalanga ʻa hono ʻAlo ʻofaʻangá kiate ia ʻi he langa mo e toʻe he mamahí? Naʻe anga-fēfē ʻa e ongoʻi ʻa Sihová ʻi he tauʻaki ʻe Sīsū ʻene mānava fakaʻosí, pea ko e fuofua taimi ia talu mei he kamataʻanga ʻo e fakatupu kotoa pē, ʻo e ʻikai ke ʻi ai ʻa Hono ʻAlo ʻofaʻangá?​—Mātiu 26:14-16, 46, 47, 56, 59, 67; 27:38-44, 46; Sione 19:1.

⁹ ʻOku tau moʻu sīlongo. Koeʻuhi ʻoku maʻu ʻe Sihova ʻa e ngaahi ongoʻi, ko e mamahi naʻá ne faingataʻaʻia ai ʻi he pekia ʻa hono ʻAló ʻoku mahulu atu ia mei he mālohi ʻo ʻetau leá ke fakahāʻí. Ko e meʻa ʻoku malava ke fakahāʻí ko e taumuʻa ʻa Sihova ki hono fakaʻatā ia ke hokó. Ko e hā naʻe fakamoʻulaloaʻi ai ʻe he Tamaí ʻa ia tonu ki ha ngaahi ongoʻi peheé? ʻOku fakahaaʻi mai ʻe Sihova ha meʻa fakaofo kiate kitautolu ʻi he Sione 3:16​—ko ha veesi Tohitapu ʻoku mātuʻaki mahuʻinga ʻa ia kuo ui ko e Kōsipeli siʻisiʻi. ʻOku pehē ai: “Naʻe ʻofa pehe ʻa e ʻOtua ki māmāni, ko ia naʻa ne foaki hono ʻAlo tofu-pe-taha-ne-fakatupu, koeʻuhi ko ia kotoa pe ʻoku tui pikitai kiate ia ke ʻoua naʻa ʻauha, kae maʻu ʻa e moʻui taʻengata.” Ko ia, ko e taumuʻa ʻa Sihová ʻoku kātoa pē ʻi he meʻá ni: ko e ʻofá. Ko e meʻaʻofa ʻa Sihová​—ʻene fekau hifo hono ʻAló ke faingataʻaʻia pea pekia maʻatautolú​—ʻa e ngāue lahi taha ia ʻo e ʻofá kuo faí.

¹² Hangē ko hono ngāueʻaki ʻi he Tohi Tapú, ko e a·gaʹpe ʻoku faʻa fakahaaʻi ai ʻa e foʻi fakakaukau ʻo e ʻofa ʻoku tataki ʻe he tefitoʻi moʻoní. Ko ia, ʻoku mahulu hake ia mei ha tali fakaeongo ki ha tokotaha kehe. ʻOku fālahi ange ia, fakakaukauloto lahi ange ki ai mo ʻosi fakakaukauʻi ʻi hono makatuʻungá. Hiliō he meʻa kotoa, ko e ʻofa faka-Kalisitiané ʻoku mātuʻaki taʻesiokita. Ko e fakatātaá, toe sio angé ki he Sione 3:16. Ko e hā ʻa e “māmāni” naʻe ʻofa lahi ki ai ʻa e ʻOtuá ʻo ne foaki ai hono ʻAlo tofu-pē-taha-ne-fakatupú? Ko e māmani ia ʻo e faʻahinga ʻo e tangatá ʻoku ala huhuʻí. ʻOku kau ki ai ʻa e kakai tokolahi ko ia ʻoku nau tuli ki ha ʻalunga angahalaʻia ʻi he moʻuí. ʻOku ʻofa ʻa Sihova ki he tokotaha taki taha ʻi he tuʻunga ko ha kaumeʻa fakafoʻituitui, ʻi he founga naʻá ne ʻofaʻi ai ʻa ʻĒpalahame faitōnungá? (Sēmisi 2:23) ʻIkai, ka ʻoku fakaaʻu anga-ʻofa mai ʻe Sihova ʻa ʻene leleí ki he faʻahinga kotoa, neongo ko ha mole lahi ia kiate ia. ʻOkú ne fiemaʻu ʻa e faʻahinga kotoa ke nau fakatomala pea liliu ʻenau ngaahi foungá. (2 Pita 3:9) ʻOku fai pehē ʻa e tokolahi. Ko e faʻahinga ʻeni ʻokú ne tali fiefia ko hono ngaahi kaumeʻá.
