HE HAS SAID

KUO NE FOLOFOLA

PSALM 9:10

Those who know your name trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you.

SAAME 9:10

Pea ‘e falala kiate koe ‘a ha‘a maheni ki ho huafa; He tala‘ehai kuo ke li‘aki, ‘e Sihova, ‘a e kau kumi ki he ‘Afiona.

 

Sola Scriptura - Scripture Alone - Ko e Folofola´ pe    

There may be a promise in the Word which would exactly fit your case, but you may not know of it, and therefore you miss its comfort. You are like prisoners in a dungeon, and there may be one key in the bunch which would unlock the door, and you might be free; but if you will not look for it, you may remain a prisoner still, though liberty is so near at hand.

Should you not, besides reading the Bible, store your memories richly with the promises of God? Ought you not to be profound in your knowledge of the words of God, so that you may be able to quote them readily when you would solve a difficulty or overthrow a doubt? Since "he hath said" is the source of all wisdom, and the fountain of all comfort, let it dwell in you richly, as "a well of water, springing up unto everlasting life.” So shall you grow healthy, strong, and happy in the divine life.

CHARLES SPURGEON

‘Oku ‘i ai ha palomesi ‘i he Folofola ‘e fe’unga tonu mo ho’o mo’ui, ka koe’uhi ‘oku ‘ikai te ke ‘ilo, pea ‘ikai ai ha tokoni mo ha fakanonga mei ai. ‘Oku ke hange ha popula ‘oku tauhi ‘i ha ‘ana, pea ko e fo’i kī te ne fakaava ‘a e loka´ ke fakatau’ataina ai koe´, ‘oku ‘oku ‘i loto ‘ana pe; ka ‘okupau ‘e ‘ikai te ke kumi ‘a e kīi´, te ke kei nofo popula ai pe, neongo ko ho veteange´ ‘oku ofi pe kiate koe.

‘E ‘ikai nai te ke tanaki ki ho’o lau Folofola ‘a ho’o tokonaki ke lahi ‘aupito ‘a e ngaahi palomesi ‘a e ‘Otua ki ho loto ke ke manatu ma’u pe ki ai? ‘Ikai ‘oku totonu ke ke tu’u mo e lau ‘i he ‘ilo ki he Folofola ‘a e ‘Otua, ke ke lau ma’uloto ke tali a’ki ha faingata’a mo ikuna’i ‘aki ha loto tala’a? Kuo’uhi, “Kuo Ne Folofola” kuo hoko ia ko e kamata’anga ‘o e poto kotoa, mo e fauniteni ‘o e fiemalie kotoa, tuku ia ke matu’aki nofo’ia koe ke hoko “ko e matavai ke mapunopuna ‘o a’u ki he mo’ui ta’engata.” Ke ke tupulaki ai pe ‘o mo’ui lelei, kaukaua mo ke fiefia ‘i ho’o mo’ui fakalangi.
