ʻO ka hele ʻana o kahi Karistiano
Aia kahi hōʻike ma ka televise e pili ana i kahi kanaka ma Siberia i haʻalele i ka "ola honua" a hele i kahi monastery. Ua haʻalele ʻo ia i kāna wahine a me kāna kaikamahine, haʻalele i kāna ʻoihana liʻiliʻi a hāʻawi iā ia iho i ka hale pule. Ua nīnau ka mea kākau moʻolelo iā ia inā kipa kāna wahine iā ia i kekahi manawa. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia ʻaʻole, ʻaʻole ʻae ʻia ke kipa ʻana mai nā wahine no ka mea e hoʻowalewale ʻia lākou. ʻAe, manaʻo paha mākou ʻaʻole hiki ke loaʻa iā mākou kekahi mea like. ʻAʻole paha mākou e hoʻi koke i kahi monastery. He ʻano like kēia moʻolelo me ko kākou ola. Ma ke ʻano he Karistiano mākou e neʻe nei i ʻelua honua, ma waena o ka honua a me ka noho ʻuhane. ʻO kā mākou huakaʻi o ka manaʻoʻiʻo ua like ia me ka hele ʻana i kahi kaula.
ʻO nā pōʻino o ka hāʻule lōʻihi ma kekahi ʻaoʻao a i ʻole kekahi e hele pū me mākou i kā mākou huakaʻi i ke ola. Ina e pahee kakou ma kekahi aoao, ua oi aku ko kakou manao honua; Inā mākou e paheʻe i lalo i kēlā ʻaoʻao, ola mākou i ka hoʻomana. A i ʻole maʻa mākou i ka hoʻomana a i ʻole ke ola honua. ʻO ke kanaka i manaʻo nui i ka lani a kali wale i ka pau ʻana o nā mea āpau, ʻaʻole pinepine ka hiki ke hauʻoli i nā makana nani a ke Akua i mālama ai. Manaʻo paha ʻo ia: ʻAʻole anei ke Akua i aʻo mai iā mākou e hoʻokaʻawale iā mākou iho mai ke ao nei no ka mea ʻaʻole no kēia ao kona aupuni a no ka mea ua hāʻule? Akā, he aha ke ʻano o kēia ao? He mau kuko kanaka lākou, ka ʻimi ʻana i ka waiwai a me ka mana, kahi ola i hōʻike ʻia e ka ʻoluʻolu a me ka haʻaheo. ʻAʻole na ke Akua kēia mau mea a pau, akā no ka honua honua.
ʻO ka mea i manaʻo nui i ka lani, haʻalele pinepine ʻo ia mai ke ao nei, me ka haʻalele ʻana i ka ʻohana a me nā hoaaloha a hāʻawi wale iā ia iho i ke aʻo ʻana i ka Baibala a me ka noʻonoʻo ʻana. ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi i nā manawa ʻaʻole maikaʻi mākou a kū i nā pilikia, maʻa mākou e pakele i ka honua. Hiki iā ia ke ala e pakele ai ʻoiai ʻaʻole hiki iā mākou ke hoʻomanawanui hou i ka ʻeha a me ka pono ʻole a puni mākou. Ua hele mai ʻo Iesū Kristo i kēia ao hāʻule, ua hoʻohaʻahaʻa iā ia iho ma ka lilo ʻana i kanaka, a ua ʻeha ʻo ia i ka make ʻino i ola nā kānaka a pau. Ua hele mai ʻo ia ma ke ʻano he mālamalama i ka pōʻeleʻele e hāʻawi i ka manaʻolana a e hoʻopau i ka ʻeha.
ʻOiai ua ʻike ke Akua i ke ʻano o kēia ao, ua hana ʻo ia i nā mea he nui no ke kanaka e hauʻoli ai, e like me ke mele, nā mea ʻala, nā meaʻai, nā kānaka a mākou e aloha ai, nā holoholona, a me nā mea kanu. Hoʻomaikaʻi ʻo Dāvida i ka hana a ke Akua: "I koʻu ʻike ʻana i ka lani, ka hana a kou mau manamana lima, ka mahina a me nā hōkū āu i hoʻomākaukau ai: he aha ke kanaka i hoʻomanaʻo ai ʻoe iā ia, a me ke keiki a ke kanaka i mālama ai ʻoe iā ia?" ( Halelu 8,4-5. ).
Ua hana kupanaha ʻia ko mākou kino make, e like me kā Dāvida i hōʻike ai a hoʻomaikaʻi aku i ke Akua no ia mea: "No ka mea, ua hoʻomākaukau ʻoe i koʻu mau puʻupaʻa, a ua hana ʻoe iaʻu i loko o ka ʻōpū. Ke hoomaikai aku nei au ia oe i kuu hana kupanaha ana; He kupanaha kau mau hana; Ua ʻike koʻu ʻuhane i kēia." (Salamo 139,13-14. ).
ʻO kekahi o nā makana nui a ke Akua i hāʻawi mai iā mākou, ʻo ia ka hiki ke hauʻoli a hauʻoli. Hāʻawi ʻo ia iā mākou i ʻelima mau manaʻo a me nā manaʻo i hiki iā mākou ke hauʻoli i ke ola. He aha nā pōʻino i ʻike ʻia e ka poʻe manaʻo "honua"? Aia paha mākou i waena o ka poʻe pilikia ʻole i ka hiki ʻana i ka poʻe ma kahi pae like; he poʻe pilina mākou. Akā, hiki paha iā mākou ke hana i nā hoʻololi e hōʻoluʻolu i nā poʻe ʻē aʻe a i ʻole e pale aku i ka nalowale ʻana o kahi mea aloha. Malia paha ua nui ka manawa no ka ʻohana a me nā hoaaloha a mālama ʻole i ko mākou manawa mālie me ke Akua. ʻOiaʻiʻo, pono mākou e kōkua i nā poʻe ʻē aʻe a noho ma laila no lākou, akā ʻaʻole pono mākou e kākoʻo i ko lākou ʻoluʻolu a ʻae paha iā mākou iho e hoʻohana ʻia. Ma keʻano he Karistiano, pono mākou e aʻo e ʻōlelo "ʻaʻole" a hoʻonohonoho pono i kā mākou mau mea nui. ʻO ka mea nui, ʻo kā mākou pilina me ke Akua, ʻo nā mea ʻē aʻe a pau ke lua. Naʻe fakahaaʻi ʻe Sīsū ʻa e meʻa ʻokú ne kole kiate kitautolu: “Kapau ʻe haʻu ʻa ha taha kiate au ʻa ia ʻoku ʻikai te ne fehiʻa ki hono tamai, mo e faʻē, mo e uaifi, mo e fānau, mo ha tokoua, mo e tuofefine, mo hono moʻuí, ʻe ʻikai te ne lava ke hoko ko hoku ākonga” (Luke 1).4,26).
Aloha no ke Akua
ʻO ko kākou aloha i ke Akua ka mea nui loa, akā pono kākou e aloha i ko kākou mau hoa kanaka. I kēia manawa, pehea lā mākou e hele ai i kēia kaula paʻa me ka hāʻule ʻole ma kekahi ʻaoʻao a i ʻole kekahi? ʻO ke kī ke kaulike - a ʻo ka mea kaulike loa i ola ʻia ʻo Iesu Kristo, ke Keiki a ke kanaka. Ma o kāna hana wale nō i loko o kākou e hiki ai ke hoʻokō i kēia kaulike. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Iesū i kāna mau haumāna ma mua koke o kona make ʻana: "ʻO wau ke kumu waina, ʻo ʻoukou nā lālā. O ka mea e pili mai ia'u, a owau hoi iloko ona, e hoohua mai ia i ka hua nui; no ka mea, aole e hiki ia oukou ke hana i kekahi mea ke ole au." (Ioane 15,5). Ua haalele pinepine oia a ua nui ka manawa ma ka pule me ka Makua. Ua hoʻonani ʻo ia i ke Akua ma kāna mau hana a me kāna hoʻōla. Ua ʻeha ʻo ia me ka poʻe i ʻeha a ua hauʻoli pū me ka poʻe i ʻoliʻoli. Hiki iā ia ke hana me ka poʻe waiwai a me ka poʻe ʻilihune.
Ke ake nei i ke ola hou
Naʻe fakahaaʻi ʻe Paula ʻa ʻene ʻi heʻenau fie maʻu: “Ko ia ʻoku tau uʻi ai mo ʻi hotau ʻaʻahi ʻi hotau nofoʻanga ʻoku ʻi he langí” (2. Korineto 5,2). ʻAe, makemake mākou e hālāwai me ka Mea nāna i hana, e noho pū me ia a mau loa aku. Ke ake nei kakou i ka manawa e pau ai na ehaeha o keia ao, a e lanakila ai ka pono o ke Akua. Makemake mākou e hoʻokuʻu ʻia mai ka hewa a e lilo i mea hou aʻe i ke kanaka hou.
Pehea ka manaʻo o Iesu Kristo i ke ola o ke kanaka i haʻalele i kona ʻohana, holo aku i kāna mau kuleana honua, a ʻimi i kona ola? Pehea kēia i kūpono ai i ka misionari a ke Akua i hāʻawi mai ai iā mākou e lanakila ai nā kānaka iā ia? Hiki i kekahi o mākou ke haʻalele i ko mākou ʻohana a i ʻole nā kānaka ʻē aʻe a hāʻawi iā mākou iho i ke aʻo Baibala wale nō. Hoʻokaʻawale mākou mai ka honua a ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻomaopopo i ka hopohopo a me nā pono o nā kānaka. Akā, pono mākou e nīnau iā mākou iho, pehea ka makemake o Iesu Kristo e ʻike i ko mākou ola ma kēia ao? He aha ke kumu? Aia mākou ma laila e hoʻokō i kahi misionari - e lanakila i nā kānaka no ke Akua.
mea
Naʻe pehē ʻe Sīsū ki he tokoua ko Simona mo Anedereʻa: “Haʻu, ʻo muimui kiate au! E hoolilo au ia oukou i mau lawaia kanaka." (Mat 4,19). Ua hiki iā Iesu ke hoʻokokoke aku i nā kānaka ma ka ʻōlelo ʻana ma nā ʻōlelo nane. Ua hoʻokō ʻo ia i nā mea a pau āna i hana ai ma muli o ka makemake o kona makuakāne. Me ke kōkua o Iesu hiki iā mākou ke hele i kēia kaula. I nā mea a pau a mākou e hana ai a me nā hoʻoholo a pau a mākou e hana ai, pono mākou e ʻōlelo e like me Iesu Kristo: "E ka Makua, inā makemake ʻoe, e lawe ʻoe i kēia kīʻaha mai oʻu aku nei; ʻAʻole naʻe koʻu makemake, akā, e mālama ʻia kou makemake. (Luke 22,42). E ʻōlelo pū kākou: E mālama ʻia kou makemake!
