Te Loi: ʼE Mole He Huafa ʼo Te ʼAtua
TE MANATU ʼA TE HAHAʼI “Neʼe mole matou manatu tahi ʼo ʼuhiga mo te fakaʼaogaʼi ʼo te huafa ʼo te ʼAtua. Kapau koia, ko te huafa fea ʼae ka matou fakaʼaogaʼi anai?”—Tagata faiako teolosia ko David Cunningham, Theological Studies.
TE MOʼONI ʼI TE TOHI-TAPU Neʼe ui fenei e te ʼAtua: “Ko au ia Sehova. Ko toku huafa ʼaia.” (Isaia 42:8, MN) Ko Sehova ʼe ko he huafa Fakahepeleo ʼe fakaʼuhiga “ ʼE Ina Fakahoko.”
ʼE loto e Sehova ke tou fakaʼaogaʼi tona huafa. ʼE ui fenei ʼi te Tohi-Tapu: “Koutou kalaga ki tona huafa, koutou fakaha ana gaue ia mua o te atu hahai, koutou fakamanatu te lahi o tona huafa!”—Esaia 12:4. *
Neʼe fakaʼaogaʼi e Sesu ia te huafa ʼo te ʼAtua. ʼI tana faikole, neʼe ui fenei e Sesu kia Sehova: “Nee au fakailoilo kia natou [te ʼu tisipulo ʼa Sesu] tou huafa, pea e au toe fakailoilo anai ia kia natou.” He ko ʼe neʼe fakaha e Sesu ia te huafa ʼo te ʼAtua ki ʼana tisipulo? ʼE ina hoko atu fenei: “Koteuhi ke nofo ia natou te ofa ae nee ke [ʼAtua] ofa ai ia au, pea ke au nofo ia natou.”—Soane 17:26.
HE KO ʼE ʼE MAʼUHIGA KE TOU ILOʼI TE MOʼONI? Neʼe tohi fenei e te tagata faiteolosia ko Walter Lowrie: “Ko he tahi ʼe mole ina iloʼi te huafa ʼo te ʼAtua ʼe mole feala ke ina iloʼi lelei ia ia, pea ʼe mole feala ke ʼofa ki ai mo kapau ʼe manatu ʼe ko he malohi fakapulipuli.”
Neʼe kau ia te tagata ʼe higoa ko Victor ki te ʼu misa ʼi te ʼu vahaʼa fuli, kaʼe neʼe ina logoʼi neʼe mole pe la ina iloʼi te ʼAtua. ʼE ina ui fenei: “ ʼI te temi leva ʼae neʼe au iloʼi ai ko te huafa ʼo te ʼAtua ʼe ko Sehova, neʼe hage leva kua feala taku fakaovi kia te ia. Neʼe hage pe kia au, ko taku hoki felaveʼi ʼae mo Ia ʼae neʼe lahi tona palalauʼi. Neʼe liliu ai leva ko he Tahi ʼe moʼoni kia au, pea mo au maʼu te ʼu felogoʼi lelei pea mo ia.”
Pea ko Sehova ʼe fia fakaovi ki te hahaʼi ʼae ʼe natou fakaʼaogaʼi tona huafa. ʼE fakapapau fenei ʼi te Tohi-Tapu: “Ko natou ae e natou iloi tou huafa e falala kia koe. Koteuhi e mole ke siaki natou ae e natou kumi ia koe.” (Pesalemo 9:11) ʼE toe tapuakiʼi e te ʼAtua ia natou ʼae ʼe fetapa ki tona huafa. ʼE ui fenei ʼi te Tohi-Tapu: “Ko ae e paui anai ki te huafa o te Aliki e haofaki anai ia.”—Loma 10:13.
