ʻEletā Jeffrey R. Holland

Naʻe akoʻi ʻe Kalaisi ʻi he kuonga ʻo e Fuakava Foʻoú “Mou fakamolemole, pea ʻe fakamolemolea ʻakimoutolu” [Luke 6:37]. Pea ʻi hotau kuongá: “Ko au, ko e ʻEikí, te u fakamolemoleʻi ʻa ia ʻoku ou loto ke fakamolemoleʻí, ka ʻoku ʻekeʻi meiate kimoutolu ʻa hoʻomou fakamolemoleʻi ʻa e kakai kotoa pē” [Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 64:10]. Ka neongo ia, ʻoku mahuʻinga ke fakatokangaʻi ʻe hamou niʻihi ʻoku fuʻu moʻui loto mamahí ʻa e meʻa naʻe ʻikai ke Ne folofola ʻakí. Naʻe ʻikai ke Ne pehē, “Oku ʻikai ngofua ke mou ongoʻi ʻa e mamahi moʻoní pe loto mamahi moʻoní, ʻi he ngaahi aʻusia fakamamahi mei he nima ʻo ha taha.” Pe naʻá Ne pehē, “Koeʻuhí ke lava ʻo fakamolemoleʻi kakato kimoutolú, kuo pau ke mou toe foki ki ha ngaahi tūkunga ʻoku ʻikai lelei pe tuʻunga ngaohikovia, pe maumau.” Kae naʻa mo e ngaahi maumau-fono kovi taha ʻe ala hokó, te tau toki lava pē ʻo hao hake mei heʻetau mamahí ʻi ha taimi te tau fokotuʻu ai hotau vaʻé ʻi he hala ki he fakamoʻui moʻoní. Ko e halá ko e fakamolemole ʻa ia naʻe foua ʻe Sīsū ʻo Nāsaletí, ʻa ia ʻokú Ne ui mai kiate kitautolu takitaha, “Haʻu, ʻo muimui ʻiate au” [Luke 18:22]. (Jeffrey R.
