Naʻe fakaʻosi ‘e ʻAlamā ‘ene akonaki ki hono foha faingataʻaʻia ko Kolianitoní ‘aki haʻane fakamatalaʻi ange kuo teuteu ‘e he Tamai Hēvaní ha founga ‘a ia ‘e lava ai ‘e kinautolu ‘oku fai angahalá ‘o maʻu ‘a e ‘aloʻofá. Naʻá ne akoʻi ‘a hono fohá ‘o kau ki he ngaahi tautea ‘oku fie maʻu ‘e he fono ‘o e fakamaau totonú ki he angahalá. Hili ia peá ne fakamoʻoniʻi leva ‘e fai ‘e Sīsū Kalaisi hono “fakalato ‘a e ngaahi fie maʻu ‘a e fakamaau totonú” (ʻAlamā 42:15) ‘i Heʻene mamahi koeʻuhí ko kinautolu kotoa pē kuo nau fai angahala pea nau loto ke nau fakatomalá. ‘Oku foaki mai ‘e he ‘Eikí ‘a e ‘aloʻofá kiate kinautolu ʻoku loto-fakatomalá (‘a kinautolu ia ‘oku fakatomalá).

‘Oku akoʻi ‘e ʻAlamā ‘a Kolianitoni ‘o kau ki he fono ‘o e fakamaau totonú
Kuikui taimi siʻi peá ke fakalaulauloto ki ha meʻa ‘e hoko ‘i ha hokosia ‘a e taimi ‘o ho Fakamaau Fakaʻosí. ‘Okú ke loto nai ke totonu ho Fakamaau Fakaʻosí, ‘i hoʻo vakai atu ki he anga hoʻo moʻuí? Ko e hā nai ‘a e ‘uhinga te ke fie maʻu ai ke totonu ho fakamāuʻí?

Tā ha fakatātā faingofua pē ‘o ha ngaahi meʻafua ‘i hoʻo tohinoa ako folofolá ‘o hangē ko e meʻafua ‘oku fokotuʻu atu hení. Hili ia peá ke hiki ‘a e foʻi lea ko e Fakamaau Totonú ‘i lalo ‘i hoʻo fakatātaá. Fakaʻatā ha konga ‘i hoʻo tohinoá ke tānaki atu ha ngaahi fakahingoa kehe ki hoʻo fakatātaá ‘i hoʻo hoko atu ‘a e lēsoní.
Lau ‘a e lea ko ‘eni ‘a ‘Eletā Tāleni H. ‘Oakesi ‘o e Kōlomu ‘o e Kau ‘Aposetolo ‘e Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá, ke tokoni ke mahino ange kiate koe ‘a e fakakaukau ki he fakamaau totonú:
“ʻOku lahi ‘a e ngaahi ‘uhinga ‘o efakamaau totonú. Ko e taha ko e palanisi (potupotu tatau). Ko e fakatātā manakoa ‘e taha ‘okú ne fakataipe ‘a e fakamaau totonú ko e ngaahi meʻafua ‘oku palanisí.
“… Ko e fakakaukau ko ia ki he fakamaau totonú, ‘a ia ko ha meʻa ‘oku totonu ke maʻu ‘e ha tahá, ko e tefitoʻi moʻoni ia ʻoku tefito ai ʻa e talaʻofa kotoa pē ʻi he folofolá ʻa ia ‘oku pehē, ‘e fakamāuʻi ‘a e tangatá ‘o fakatatau ki heʻenau ngaahi ngāué” (“Sins, Crimes, and Atonement” [lea naʻe fai ki he kau faiakó ‘i he lēsoni fakalotu ‘a e CES, Fep. 7, 1992], 1).
Naʻe hohaʻa ‘a e foha ‘o ʻAlamā ko Kolianitoní ki hono totonu ‘o e Fakamaau Fakaʻosí. Lau ‘a e ʻAlamā 42:1, pea fakaʻilongaʻi ‘a e meʻa naʻe pehē ‘e Kolianitoni ‘oku ‘ikai totonu pe ‘oku ‘ikai angatonu ai ‘a e Fakamaau Fakaʻosí.
Manatuʻi naʻe fai ‘e Kolianitoni ha ngaahi angahala, pea ko e niʻihi ai ko ha ngaahi angahala mamafa ‘aupito (vakai, ʻAlamā 39:2–3); ko ia mahalo naʻe fakaʻamu pe ‘amanaki ai ‘a Koianitoni ‘oku taʻe totonu ke tauteaʻi ‘a kinautolu kuo nau fai angahalá.

Hiki ‘i hoʻo tohinoa ako folofolá ‘a e ‘uhinga ‘okú ke pehē ai ‘oku totonu ke hohaʻa ‘a kinautolu kuo ‘ikai te nau fakatomala mei heʻenau ngaahi angahalá ki he meʻa ‘oku tuha ke nau maʻu” ‘i he fakamāú.
Naʻe fakamahinoʻi ‘e ‘Alamā ‘i he ʻAlamā 42:2–11, ʻa e meʻa naʻe hohaʻa ki ai ‘a Kolianitoní ‘i heʻene fakamatalaʻi ange naʻe fakahoko ‘e he Hinga ‘a ‘Ātamá ‘a e mate fakasinó (‘a ia ko e fakamavaheʻi ia ‘o e sinó mo e laumālié ‘i he mate ‘a e sinó) mo e mate fakalaumālié (‘a ia ko e fakamavaheʻi ia mei he ‘Otuá koeʻuhí ko e angahalá). Ko ia naʻe fie maʻu ai ke fokotuʻu ha palani ke toe fakafoki mai ‘a e faʻahinga ʻo e tangatá mei honau tuʻunga hingá. Kapau naʻe ‘ikai pehē, ‘e nofo ‘a e faʻahinga kotoa ‘o e tangatá ‘i ha tuʻunga angahalaʻia pea nau mamahi ‘o taʻengata ‘o fakatatau ki he ngaahi fie maʻu ‘a e fakamaau totonú.
Lau ‘a e ʻAlamā 42:12, pea feinga ke ‘iloʻi ‘a e meʻa naʻá ne ngaohi ‘a e faʻahinga ‘o e tangatá ke nau aʻu ai ki he tuʻunga ‘o e hingá. Lau he taimí ni ‘a e ʻAlamā 42:14, pea fakaʻilongaʻi ‘a e nunuʻa ‘o ‘etau talangataʻá ‘a ia ‘oku fie maʻu ‘e he fakamaau totonú. Hiki ki he fakatātā ‘o e ngaahi meʻafuá ‘i hoʻo tohinoa ako folofolá ‘a e Maumauʻi —talangataʻa pe fai angahala ‘i lalo ‘i he meʻafua ‘i he toʻohemá, mo e Tautea—kapusi mei he ‘ao ‘o e ‘Otuá ‘i lalo ‘i he meʻafua ʻi he toʻomataʻú.

‘Okú ke pehē ko e hā hono ‘uhinga ‘o e “tautea ‘o e konisēnisí” ( ʻAlamā 42:18)?

Fakatatau ki he meʻa naʻe akoʻi ‘e ʻAlamaá, ko e hā ha meʻa ‘oku fie maʻu ‘e he fono ‘o e fakamaau totonú ‘i he taimi ‘oku talangataʻa ai ha tahá? (ʻOku fie maʻu ‘e he fono ‘o e fakamaau totonú ke tau ongoʻi moʻoni ha loto mamahi pea kapusi kitautolu mei he ‘ao ‘o e Otuá koeʻuhí ko ‘etau talangataʻá.)

Fakatatau ki he meʻa naʻe akoʻi ‘e ‘Alamaá, ‘okú ke loto nai ke makatuʻunga ‘ataʻatā pē ‘a e Fakamaau Fakaʻosí ‘i he fakamaau totonú? ‘Okú ke loto ke ke maʻu ‘a e “meʻa ʻoku totonu ke ke maʻú” ki he ngaahi meʻa hala kuó ke faí?
ʻAlamā 42:15–31
‘Oku akoʻi ‘e ʻAlamā ‘a Kolianitoni ‘o kau ki he palani ‘o e ‘aloʻofá
Ko e taha ‘o e ngaahi anga ‘o e ‘Otuá ko e angatonú. ‘Oku fakahalaiaʻi ‘e he ngaahi ‘eke ‘a e fakamaau totonú ‘a e fānau takitaha ‘a e Tamai Hēvaní pea ‘e ‘ikai tuku ha toko taha ‘o kitautolu ke tau nofo mo Ia ‘i hotau tuʻunga angahalaʻiá. Fakakaukau ki he fehuʻi ko ‘ení: ‘Oku ‘i ai nai ha founga ‘e lava ai ‘o tāmateʻi pe taʻofi ‘a e ngaahi ‘eke ko ‘eni ‘a e fakamaau totonú?
‘E tokolahi ha kakai te nau tali ‘a e fehuʻi ko ‘ení ‘aki haʻanau fokotuʻu mai, kapau te tau fakatomala, ‘e ‘ikai te tau faingataʻaʻia ‘i he ngaahi nunuʻa ‘o ‘etau ngaahi angahalá.

Naʻe pehē ‘e Palesiteni Poiti K. Peeka, ko e Palesiteni ‘o e Kōlomu ‘o e Kau ‘Aposetolo ‘e Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá, ko ha fakalaloa ‘a Sīsū Kalaisi.
