TEACH ME YOUR WORD

AKO‘I MAI HO‘O FOLOFOLA´

Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.

JEREMIAH 33:3

Ui kiate au, pea te u tali koe, pea te u fakahā kiate koe ‘a e ngaahi me‘a lalahi mo ma‘ungata‘a, ‘oku ‘ikai te ke lava ke ‘ilo ia.

SELEMAIA 33:3

Sola Scriptura - Scripture Alone - Ko e Folofola´ pe    

We should be abler teachers of others, and less liable to be carried about by every wind of doctrine, if we sought to have a more intelligent understanding of the Word of God. As the Holy Ghost, the Author of the Scriptures, is He who alone can enlighten us rightly to understand them, we should constantly ask His teaching, and His guidance into all truth.

When Daniel interpreted Nebuchadnezzar's dream, what did he do? He set himself to earnest prayer that God would open up the vision. The apostle John, in his vision at Patmos, saw a book sealed with seven seals which none was found worthy to open, or so much as to look upon. The book was afterwards opened by the Lion of the tribe of Judah, who had prevailed to open it; but it is written first—"I wept much.” The tears of John, which were his liquid prayers, were, so far as he was concerned, the sacred keys by which the folded book was opened.
