Ki te whanau ano koe i roto ia te Karaiti, ehara koe i te tamariki a te rewera, engari kua riro koe hei tamariki na te Atua. Eaha râ te auraa ia riro ei tamarii na te Atua? Because there are a lot of people, e ki ana kua whanau hou ratou, but still walk as the old creation after the flesh and live the same lives as those, no te ao.
Becoming a child of God
Nana, he aha te ahua o te aroha i homai nei e te Matua ki a tatou, kia kiia ai tatou he tamariki na te Atua: No reira kaore te ao e mohio ki a tatou, no te mea kihai tera i mohio ki a ia. Arohanui, inaianei he tama tatou na te Atua, a kahore ano kia kitea he aha tatou a mua: engari e mohio ana matou ki tena, ina puta mai ia, ka rite tatou ki a ia; for we shall see Him as he is. Na ki te mea kei tetahi tenei tumanako ki a ia, ka tahia e ia ona he, rite tonu ki a ia he ma. Ko te tangata e mahi ana i te hara, ko ia ano te ture: he takahi hoki te hara i te ture. E matau ana ano koutou i whakakitea mai ia hei waha atu i o tatou hara; kahore hoki he hara i roto i a ia. Ko te tangata e noho ana i roto i a ia e kore e hara: Ko te tangata e hara ana, kaore ia i kite ia ia, kahore hoki i mohio ki a ia (1 Hone 3:1-6)
When you become a child of God; He Tama a te Atua, na roto i te whanautanga i roto i a te Karaiti, Kua tapu koe, he tika hoki. As a child of God you have become holy and righteous and therefore you shall walk in holiness, and in righteousness. You shall live according to His will and you shall keep His commandments, because His Holy Spirit abides in you.
Because the Holy Spirit dwells in you, you have received His nature and you shall live from your new nature. You have crucified your old nature (o koutou kikokiko), a kua riro ia ia tona ahua, therefore you shall walk in this ahua hou I muri i te Wairua.
Ko koe Noho ana i roto ia Ihu Karaiti i te ringa matau o te Atua. That’s your new place.
Before you got whanau ano, your place was on this earth, and you were subjected to all powers and forces of darkness, that rule in this world. You were their slave, a ko ratou hei rangatira mo koutou (i roto i te kikokiko).
I whai mana ranei ratou ki te whakahaere i a koe? Kore rawa, no te mea kua tangohia e Ihu to ratou mana, engari i mahia noa e ratou, a kei te mahi tonu ratou.
Kei a ratou tonu te kaha ki te mahi i roto i te kikokiko (wairua me te tinana) o nga tangata, a i te mea e haere ana te tangata i runga i te kikokiko, ka rangatira ia e enei ope.
Aita râ Iesu i mauiui e aita oia i horoa i to ’na iho ora, (mō Te hinaaro o te Atua) mo koe, kia rangatira ai koutou, a ka whakahaeretia e enei ope kino o te hoariri.
Ko te hiahia o te Atua kia riro koe hei tamariki na te Atua; Ko tana tamaiti; Ko tana tama; he hanga hou, whanau i roto i tona Wairua, noho i runga i te tapu me te tika, me te tino ngohengohe ki te Kupu a te Atua.
Noho ana i roto ia Ihu Karaiti
A, no te haere koe i muri i te Wairua, me te noho i roto ia ia (noho i roto i tana Kupu), katahi koe ka noho ki te ringa matau o te Atua. Ka noho koe, me Ihu Karaiti, I nga waahi o te rangi, a kingi tahi me ia ki runga ake i nga mana katoa o te pouri.
Ina tango koe i to tuunga i roto i a ia, e ia ora ia au i To’na hinaaro, katahi ano ka taea e koe te hanga tikanga i runga i tenei whenua.
Ko te ao kotahi te tino whaikorero
He maha nga momo mahi kei tenei ao; pakanga, matenete, Nga aitua taiao, me etahi atu. Kei te noho nga tangata i runga i nga hiahia me nga hiahia o to ratou kikokiko, e rave ratou i ta ratou i hinaaro e e rave i te mau mea atoa ta te Atua i opani.
Ko te wairua matua o tenei ao ko te noho mo te 'whaiaro' me te whakatutuki i o raatau hiahia me o raatau hiahia.
Ka ora te tangata i muri i te kikokiko. Āe, tae noa ’tu te mau “kerisetiano” e apiti nei i teie nei ao, e hiahia ana ratou kia manakohia e te ao, me te hiahia kia paingia ratou, kia urutau ki o raatau whanonga.
He iti noa te rereketanga o te noho o te tangata hara, me te Karaitiana. Ka noho raua i runga i to raua hiahia, o ratou ake hiahia, me nga hiahia.
Ko te rereketanga anake ko te mea e kiia nei ko te Karaitiana e whakamahi ana i te aroha noa o te Atua hei whakatika i nga hara me te hara tonu.
Kei hea te hunga tapu?
Engari kei hea te hunga tapu, i roto ia Ihu Karaiti? I haere ratou ki hea? Kei hea:
- Ko te hunga tapu e haere ana i runga i te tapu me te tika, e tahuri atu ana i te kino; mai i te hara
- Ko te hunga tapu e haere ana i runga i te ngakau papaku me te ngohengohe ki te hiahia o te Atua hei utu mo o ratou ake hiahia me te hiahia o te tangata.
- Te feia mo'a tei haere na roto i te mana o Iesu Mesia e tei haapa'oi Ta'na mau faaueraa.
- Te hunga tapua haapao i te Parau a te Atua maoti i te faatano i te Parau a te Atua i te hoê huru oraraa o teie nei ao tei î i te hara
Ko wai ka maia ki te tu mo te Atua me tana Kupu me te tu ki tenei ao?
Ko wai e maia ki te tu mo Ihu Karaiti?
I te wa ka riro koe hei tamaiti na te Atua, e kore koe no te ao a muri ake nei, na reira e kore te ao e mohio ki a koe atu, koira ta te Kupu.
Te e kore te ao e mohio ki a koe no reira e kore e taea e koe te noho tahi ki te ao. E noho ana koe i tetahi atu rangatiratanga, katahi ka noho te ao.
Eita to te ao e nehenehe e taa i te mau mea o te Varua, no te mea kahore ratou i whanau hou i roto i te Wairua, kahore hoki te Wairua Tapu o te Atua e noho ana i roto i a ratou.
Engari he aha te nuinga o nga Karaitiana i tenei tau? Kaore ratou e hikoi, ano he tamariki na te Atua. Engari he rite tonu ta ratou noho ki te ao (ko te rewera to ratou matua).
E rave rahi mau Kerisetiano e ere i te mau tamarii auraro, ua riro mai râ ei mau tamarii orure hau teoteo, e haere ana ki roto Te whakapono ki te Atua.
He kikokiko ratou, he whai i ta te kikokiko, no reira ko te whakapehapeha me te tutu tetahi wahi o to ratou ahua.
Ko te 'whaiaro' te kingi i roto i to ratau oranga. Ka mahia e ratou ta ratou e hiahia ai, noho ki ta ratou e hiahia ai, e haamâha i te hiaai e te hinaaro o to ratou tino.
Ia ore râ te tahi taata e haapao i te Parau a te Atua; Ihu, kātahi (s)kei te noho tutu ia, ki a ia, no reira ka noho i roto i te hara.
No te aha Iesu i haere ai ma te hara ore?
No te aha Iesu i haere ai ma te hara ore? No te mea i aroha a Ihu ki te Atua, Tona Matua i runga ake i nga mea katoa, no reira i ngohengohe ai a Ihu ki te hiahia o tona Matua. Ua rave Iesu i te mau mea atoa i auhia e te Atua. No te mea i noho a Ihu i runga i te hiahia o te Atua me te pupuri i ana ture, kare he hara i roto i tona oranga, kare ano he hara i roto i a ia.
I a koe e noho ana i roto i a te Karaiti, ko te tikanga kei te noho koe i runga i te Kupu; Tona hiahia.
I a koe e haere tonu ana i runga i tana i pai ai, me te pupuri i ana whakahau, ka mawehe atu koe i a koe ano i te hara.
No reira he mea nui kia mohio ki te Kupu, kia ako ai koe i tana i pai ai. Na te Kupu, ka mohio koe ki a ia, e ia haapa'o outou i te parau e ora outou ia au i To'na hinaaro.
Mai te mea e here outou Ia’na e e haapa‘o i Ta’na mau faaueraa, ka noho tonu koe ki roto ki a ia, e kore ano e haere i runga i te hara.
Engari ki te tutu koe ki a ia me te kore e pupuri i ana ture, ka whakarere koe ia ia, a ka haere koe i runga i te hara.
Ki te haere tonu koe i roto i te hara, te tikanga kaore koe e aroha ki a ia. Ahakoa ka mea koe e aroha ana koe ki a ia. Kia mahara, nui atu te reo o au mahi i nga kupu. E whakaatu ana o mahi, Ko wai koe:
- he tamaiti na te Atua, ko te hunga e whakapono ana ki tana Kupu, e whakarongo ana ki tana Kupu, e pupuri ana i ana ture, e haere ana i runga i te Wairua, rānei
- he tamaiti na te rewera, o tei ti‘aturi i te mau parau o te ao nei e te haapa‘o nei i te reira e te haapa‘o nei i te mau faaueraa o te ao nei, e haere ana i runga i te kikokiko.
'Kia tote o te whenua'
