ʻOku kau he vahe ko ʻení ha ngaahi konga ʻoku taʻemakapusi ia ki he tuʻunga matuʻotuʻa ʻo e fānau īkí. ʻOku lelei taha pē ke tatali kae ʻoua kuo lalahi feʻunga ʻa e fānaú ke mahino kiate kinautolu ʻa e fetuʻutaki fakasekisualé mo e mālohi ʻo e fakatupú, kimuʻa pea toki akoʻi ange kiate kinautolu ʻa e ngaahi konga ko ʻeni ʻo e vahé. Kuo fakahā mai ʻe hotau kau taki ʻo e Siasí ko e fatongia ia ʻo e ngaahi mātuʻá ke akoʻi ʻenau fānaú ʻo fekauʻaki mo e fakatupu ʻo e moʻuí (founga hono faʻu mo fāʻeleʻi ʻo e fānaú). Kuo pau foki ke akoʻi kiate kinautolu ʻe he ngaahi mātuʻá ʻa e fono ʻo e angamaʻá, ʻa ia ʻoku fakamatalaʻi ʻi he vahé ni.

ʻE lava ke kamata akoʻi ʻe he ngaahi mātuʻá ʻenau fānaú ke nau maʻu ʻa e fakakaukau totonu ki honau sinó he taimi ʻoku kei iiki ai e fānaú. ʻE tokoni ʻa e talanoa mahino mo fakahangatonu mo kinautolú pea mo hono fakaʻaongaʻi ʻa e ngaahi konga totonu ʻo honau sinó mo e anga ʻenau ngāué, ke nau tupu hake ai ʻo ʻikai ke nau maaʻi ʻa honau sinó.

ʻOku natula fieʻilo pē ʻa e fānaú ia. ʻOku nau fie ʻilo ki he anga e ngāue ʻa honau sinó. ʻOku nau fie ʻilo pe ko e haʻu mei fē ʻa e fanga kiʻi pēpeé. Kapau ʻe tali mahino leva ʻe he ngaahi mātuʻá ʻa e faʻahinga fehuʻi peheé ke mahino ki he fānaú, ʻe kei hokohoko atu pē hono ʻoatu ʻe he fānaú ia ʻenau ngaahi fehuʻí ki heʻenau mātuʻá. Ka ʻo kapau ʻe tali ʻe he ngaahi mātuʻá ia ʻa e ngaahi fehuʻí ke ongoʻi mā, fehiʻanekina pe taʻefiemālie ai e fānaú, mahalo te nau ō kinautolu ki ha taha kehe ʻo fehuʻi ki ai pea mahalo te nau maʻu mei ai ha ngaahi fakakaukau mo ha ngaahi tōʻonga hala.

Ka ʻoku ʻikai fakapotopoto foki pe fie maʻu ke fakahā fakaʻangataha ki he fānaú ʻa e meʻa kotoa pē. ʻOku fie maʻu ke ʻoange pē ʻe he ngaahi mātuʻá ʻa e fakamatala ne nau ʻeké mo lava ke mahino kiate kinautolú.

ʻI he tō hake ʻa e fānaú ʻo matuʻotuʻá, ʻoku totonu ke talanoa leva ʻa e mātuʻá mo kinautolu ʻo kau ki he fakatupu ʻo e fānaú. ʻOku totonu ke mahino ki he fānaú ʻoku lelei e ngaahi mālohi ko ʻení pea naʻe foaki mai ia ʻe he ʻEikí kiate kitautolu. ʻOkú Ne finangalo ke tau fakaʻaongaʻi pē ia ʻi loto ʻi he ngaahi fakangatangata kuó Ne ʻomi kiate kitautolú.

ʻOku omi e fānau īkí ki he māmaní mei he Tamai Hēvaní ʻoku nau kei maʻa mo taʻehalaia. ʻI he lotua ʻe he ngaahi mātuʻá ha fakahinohinó, ʻe ueʻi kinautolu ʻe he ʻEikí ke akoʻi ʻenau fānaú ʻi he taimi totonu pea ʻi he founga totonu.

Ko e Mālohi ʻo e Fakatupu e Moʻuí

  • Ko e hā hono ʻuhinga ʻoku totonu ke akoʻi ai ʻe he ngaahi mātuʻá ki heʻenau fānaú ʻa e fakatupu ʻo e moʻuí pea mo e angamaʻá? Ko e hā ha founga lelei ʻe lava ke nau fai ai ʻeni?

Naʻe fekau ʻe he ʻOtuá ki he meʻa moʻui kotoa pē ke ne fanafanau ʻi hono faʻahinga pē ʻoʻona (vakai, Sēnesi 1:22). Ko e fanafanaú ko ha konga ia ʻo ʻEne palaní ke lava ai e meʻa moʻui kotoa pē ʻo hokohoko atu ʻenau moʻui ʻi he māmaní.

Naʻá Ne tuku mai leva ʻa ʻĀtama mo ʻIvi ki he māmaní. Naʻá na kehe kinaua mei Heʻene ngaahi fakatupu kehé he ko ʻEne fānau fakalaumālie ʻa kinaua. Naʻá Ne fakahoko e mali ʻa ʻĀtama mo ʻIví ʻi he Ngoue ko ʻĪtení peá Ne fekau ke na fanafanau mo fakatokolahi ʻa e māmaní (vakai, Sēnesi 1:28). Ka naʻe pau ke puleʻi ʻena moʻuí ʻe he ngaahi fono ʻo e moʻui angamaʻá, kae ʻikai ko ʻena ʻilo fakanatulá.

Naʻe finangalo ʻa e ʻOtuá ke fāʻeleʻi mai ʻEne fānau fakalaumālié ki ha ngaahi fāmili ke lava ʻo tokangaʻi mo akoʻi lelei ai kinautolu. ʻOku tau hangē ko ʻĀtama mo ʻIví, ʻo pau ke tau foaki ha ngaahi sino fakamatelie ki he fānau fakalaumālie ko ʻení. Kuo fakahā mai ʻe he Kau Palesitenisī ʻUluakí mo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá, “ ʻOku mau fakahā heni ko e founga ko ia ʻoku fakatupu ai ʻa e moʻui fakamatelié, ko ha tuʻutuʻuni fakalangi ia” (“Ko e Fāmilí: Ko Ha Fanongonongo ki Māmani,” Ensign, Nov. 1995, 102). Kuo fekau mai ʻe he ʻOtuá ko e toki taimi pē ke tau feohi fakasekisuale aí, ʻa e taimi ko ia ʻoku mali ai ha tangata mo ha fefiné. ʻOku ui ʻa e fekau ko ʻení ko e fono ʻo e angamaʻá.

Ko e Fono ʻo e Angamaʻá

  • Ko e hā ʻa e fono ʻo e angamaʻá?

Kuo pau ke tau toki feohi fakasekisuale pē mo hotau hoa ʻoku tau mali fakalao mo iá. Kuo pau ke ʻoua naʻa feohi fakasekisuale ha taha, ʻo tatau pē ʻa e tangata pe fefine, ki muʻa ʻi he malí. Hili ʻa e malí, ko hotau malí pē ʻoku ngofua ke tau feohi fakasekisuale mo iá.

Naʻe folofola ʻa e ʻEikí ki he kau ʻIsilelí ʻo pehē, “ʻOua naʻá ke [tono]” (ʻEkesōtosi 20:14). Ko e kau ʻIsileli ko ia naʻa nau maumauʻi ʻa e fekau ko ʻení, naʻe pau ke tautea mamafa ʻa kinautolu. Kuo toutou fakahoko mai ʻe he ʻEikí ʻa e fekau ko ʻení ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho fakaʻosí (vakai, T&F 42:24).

Kuo akonekina kitautolu ʻoku mahulu hake ʻi he fetuʻutaki fakasekisualé ʻa e ʻuuni meʻa ʻoku fālute ʻe he fono ʻo e angamaʻá. Kuo fakatokanga mai ʻa e Kau Palesitenisī ʻUluakí ki he toʻu tupú ʻo fekauʻaki mo e ngaahi angahala fakasekisualé makehe:

“ ʻOua naʻá ke fai ha faʻahinga meʻa ki muʻa ʻi he nofo-malí ke fakatupuʻaki ha faʻahinga ongo mālohi fakaekakano ʻa ia kuo pau ke toki fakahaaʻi pē ia ʻi he nofo-malí. ʻOua naʻá ke ʻuma [hangē ko ia ʻoku fai ʻi he faikaumeʻá], tokoto ʻi ʻolunga ʻi ha taha, pe ala ki he ngaahi konga fūfūnaki mo toputapu ʻo ha taha, ʻo tatau ai pē pe ʻoku vala pe taʻe vala. ʻOua naʻá ke fakangofua ha taha ke ne fai atu ia kiate koe. ʻOua naʻá ke fakatupu ʻi ho sino pē ʻoʻoú ʻa e faʻahinga ongo ko iá” (Ki Hono Fakamālohia ʻo e Toʻu Tupú [tohi tufa, 2001], 27).

Hangē ko hono maumauʻi ʻo e fono ʻo e angamaʻá ʻi ha ngaahi founga kehé, ʻoku hoko foki ʻa e feohi fakahomosekisualé ko ha angahala mamafa. Kuo lea mai e kau palōfita he ʻaho kimui ní ʻo fekauʻaki mo e fakatuʻutāmaki ʻo e tōʻonga fakahomosekisualé pea pehē ki he hohaʻa ʻa e Siasí ki he kakai ʻoku nau fakahehema ke fai ʻení. Naʻe pehē ʻe Palesiteni Kōtoni B. Hingikelī:

“Ko e ʻuluakí pē, ʻoku mau tui ko e malí ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo ha tangata mo ha fefine, ko e tuʻutuʻuni ia ʻa e ʻOtuá. ʻOku mau tui ʻe lava pē ke taʻengata ʻa e nofo malí ʻi hano fakahokoʻaki ʻa e mālohi ʻo e lakanga fakataulaʻeiki taʻengatá ʻi he fale ʻo e ʻEikí.

“ ʻOku ʻeke ʻe he kakaí pe ko e hā ʻetau fakakaukau kiate kinautolu ʻa e kakai tangata mo e fefine ʻoku nau nonofo fakatangata mo nonofo fakafefine peé. Ko ʻeku tali ki aí, ʻoku tau ʻofa ʻiate kinautolu he ko e ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine kinautolu ʻo e ʻOtuá. Mahalo pē ʻoku ʻi ai ʻenau ngaahi ongo mo ʻenau ngaahi tōʻonga ʻanautolu ʻoku fuʻu mālohi pea faingataʻa ke mapuleʻi.

Kapau ʻe ʻikai ke nau muimui ki he ngaahi ongo mo e ngaahi tōʻonga ko ʻení, ʻe kei hokohoko atu ai pē ʻa ʻenau moʻuí ʻo hangē ko e kāingalotu kehe ʻo e Siasí. Pea kapau te nau maumauʻi ʻa e fono ʻo e anga-maʻá pea mo e ngaahi tuʻunga ʻulungāanga ʻo e Siasí fekauʻaki mo e ʻulungāanga maʻá, ʻe fakahoko leva kiate kinautolu ʻa e fakatonutonu ʻa e Siasí ʻo hangē pē ko ia ʻoku fakahoko ki ha toe niʻihi kehe.

“ ʻOku mau loto ke tokoniʻi ʻa e kakai pehení, ke fakamālohia ʻa kinautolu, ke tokoni kiate kinautolu ʻi heʻenau ngaahi palōpalemá pea mo honau ngaahi faingataʻá.

ʻOku Loto ʻa Sētane Ke Tau Maumauʻi e Fono ʻo e Angamaʻá

  • Ko e hā ha ngaahi founga ʻoku ʻahiʻahiʻi ai ʻe Sētane ʻa e kakaí ke nau maumauʻi e fono ʻo e angamaʻá?

ʻOku ʻikai ngata pē hono poupouʻi kitautolu ʻe Sētane ke tau teunga taʻetāú, ka ʻokú ne poupouʻi foki kitautolu ke tau fakakaukau taʻetaau mo taʻefeʻunga. ʻOkú ne fakahoko ʻeni ʻi he ngaahi fakatātaá, heleʻuhilá, tūkuhuá, hivá mo e ngaahi tauʻolunga pe hulohula ʻokú ne fokotuʻu mai e tōʻonga ʻulí. ʻOku fie maʻu ʻe he fono ʻo e angamaʻá ke maʻa ʻetau ngaahi fakakaukaú mo e ngaahi tōʻongá. Naʻe akonaki mai ʻa e palōfita ko ʻAlamaá ko e taimi ʻoku fakamaauʻi ai kitautolu ʻe he ʻOtuá, “ ʻe fakahalaiaʻi ʻa kitautolu foki ʻe heʻetau ngaahi fakakaukaú; pea ʻi he tuʻunga fakamanavahē ko iá ʻe ʻikai te tau loto-toʻa ke sio hake ki hotau ʻOtuá” (ʻAlamā 12:14).

Naʻe akonaki mai ʻa Sīsū ʻo pehē, “Kuo mou fanongo naʻe pehē kiate kinautolu ʻi muʻa, ʻOua naʻá ke tono fefine:

“Ka ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Ko ia ʻoku fakasio ki ha fefine ke holi ki ai, ʻoku tonoʻi ia ʻe ia ʻi hono lotó” (Mātiu 5:27–28).

Naʻe fakatokanga mai ʻa Palesiteni Kōtoni B.

Naʻe loto mamahi e palōfita ko ʻAlamaá koeʻuhí ko hono maumauʻi ʻe ha taha ʻo hono ngaahi fohá ʻa e fono ʻo e angamaʻá.
