“Ka mamate e tau tagata agahala ti o hifo e tau agaaga ha lautolu ke he matakavi fakakikiveka, ha i ai e matematekelea he matakavi ia, ‘ko e afi tukulagi.’” (Catechism of the Catholic Church) Falu takitaki lotu ne talahau ko e matakavi fakakikiveka ko e tuaga ne fakatoka kehe katoatoa mo e vevehe kehe mai he Atua.

“Ko e tagata kua hala to mate a ia.” (Esekielu 18:4) Ko lautolu ne mamate “nakai iloa e lautolu ha mena.” (Fakamatalaaga 9:5) Kaeke ke mate e tagata ti nakai iloa ha mena, maeke fēfē ke matematekelea he “afi tukulagi” po ke mamahi ha ko e vevehe kehe tukulagi mai he Atua?

I loto he Tohi Tapu, ko e tau kupu Heperu mo e Heleni kua fa fakaliliu “tukuaga” kua hagaao ke he tukuaga he tau tagata. Ma e fakatai, he mogo ne matematekelea a Iopu he gagao mamahi lahi, ne liogi a ia: “Ane fufu e koe au i Seoli [tukuaga].” (Iopu 14:13) Manako a Iopu ke okioki, nakai ke he taha matakavi fakakikiveka po ke vevehe kehe mai he Atua, ka e he tukuaga.

Ko e mahani favale kua nakai fakatata a tautolu ke he Atua, ka e fakamamao ia mo tautolu. “Mai he vahā mukemuke ne fakaako ki a au e fakaakoaga he afi tote,” he talahau e Rocío, ne nofo i Mesikō. “Matakutaku lahi au ti manamanatu na ai fai fua mitaki e Atua. Ne manatu au kua favale a ia ti nakai fakamanavalahi.”

Ko e tau talahauaga mahino mai he Tohi Tapu hagaao ke he fakafiliaga he Atua mo e tuaga he mate ne hiki e puhala ne onoono ki ai a Rocío hagaao ke he Atua. “Ne logona e au e tokanoaaga​​—ko e logonaaga mamafa lahi ia ne utakehe mai ia au,” he talahau e ia. “Ne kamata au ke falanaki ko e mena manako e Atua ke moua e tautolu e tau mena mitaki, ti fakaalofa a ia ki a tautolu, mo e maeke ia au ke fakaalofa ki a ia. Tuga e matua taane a ia ne takitaki haana fanau he lima mo e manako ke he mena mitaki ma lautolu.”​​​—Isaia 41:13.

Tokologa ne kua eketaha ke mahani fakalotu ha ko e matakutaku ke he afi fakakikiveka, ka e nakai manako e Atua ke fekafekau a koe ki a ia ha ko e matakutaku ki a ia. Pete ia, pehē a Iesu: “Kia fakaalofa atu foki a koe ke he Iki [Iehova] hāu a Atua.” (Mareko 12:29, 30) Mua atu, ka mailoga e tautolu ne nakai mahani hepehepe e Atua he vahā nei, maeke foki a tautolu ke falanaki ke he haana tau fakafiliaga he vahā anoiha. Ke tuga e kapitiga ha Iopu ko Elihu, to mauokafua a tautolu he pehē: “Kia mamao mo e Atua ke mahani kelea ai a ia, mo Ia hana e malolo oti kana ke mahani hepehepe a ia.”​​​—Iopu 34:10.
