A VEIN [Vault] OF PURE GOLD

KO E TANAKI’ANGA ‘O E KOULA HAOHAOA

PROVERBS 30:5

Every word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.

PALOVEPI 30:5

Ko e folofola kotoa ‘a ‘Elohā kuo ‘osi-‘a-sivi; Ko e fakaū ia kiate kinautolu kuo hūfanga kiate ia.

 

Sola Scriptura - Scripture Alone - Ko e Folofola´ pe    

This Bible is a Book of authority, it is an authorized Book, for God has written it. Oh, tremble, tremble, lest any of you despise it; mark its authority, for it is the Word of God. Then, since God wrote it, mark its truthfulness.

This is the Word of God; come search, ye critics, and find a flaw; examine it from its Genesis to its Revelation, and find an error. This is a vein [vault] of pure gold, unalloyed by quartz, or any earthy substance. This is a star without a speck, a sun without a blot! A light without darkness; a moon without its paleness; a glory without a dimness. O Bible!

It cannot be said of any other book that it is perfect and pure, but of thee we can declare all wisdom is gathered up in thee, without a particle of folly. This is the judge that ends the strife where wit and reason fail. This is the book untainted by any error; it is pure, unalloyed, perfect truth. Why? Because God wrote it.

Ko e Tohitapú ko e Tohi ma’u’anga mafai, pea ko e Tohi kuo fakamafai’i, he na’e hiki (tohi nima) ‘e he ‘Otua. ‘Alaa, ke ke tete ‘i hono ‘ao, na’a faifaiangee pea ke situ’a mei ai; faka’ilonga’i hono mafai, he ko e Folofola ‘a e ‘Otua ia. Pea kapau na’e hiki ‘e he ‘Otua, pea ke faka’ilonga’i ‘a ‘ene faitotonu.

Ko e Folofola eni ‘a e ‘Otua; ha’u ‘a e kau fakaangaa ‘o fekumi pe te ke ‘ilo ha mele; hakule meia Senesi ki Fakaha, pe te ke ma’u ha fehalaaki. Ko e tuku’anga koloa malu eni ‘o e koula haohaoa; ‘ikai toe fio ai ha me’a kehe ‘i mamani. Ko e fetu’u eni ‘oku ‘ikai hano fe’ufe’u, ‘ikai toe uesia ‘e ha ‘elemeniti kehe, pe ko ha toe melengatamaki ‘i ha me’a ‘i mamani. 

‘Oku ‘ikai ha tohi ‘i mamani ‘e kakunga ki hono haohaoa mo hono masani.  Te tau sani ia ‘o pehe, “ko e poto kotoa ‘oku fā’utaha ‘iate koe ‘o ‘ikai ha tapa te ne momo’i matavalea ai.”  Ko e tu’i fakamaau ‘eni ‘oku ne fakangata ‘a e fepaki ‘i he ngaahi mo’oni ‘oku tonounou ai ‘a e poto mo e ‘ilome’a ‘a e tangata.  Ko e tohi ‘oku ‘ikai ke fakamele’i ‘e ha fehalaaki; ‘oku haohaoa pea ma’oni’oni hono ngaahi mo’oni.  Ko e ha ‘a e ‘uhinga?  He na’e hiki kotoa ‘e he ‘Otua.
