E noʻonoʻo i kēia lā he hana hou ʻoe i loko o Kristo
ʻAʻohe mea e ninini i ka waina hou i loko o nā hue ʻili kahiko. Inā ʻaʻole e hoʻokaʻawale ka waina hou i nā ʻili, ninini ʻia a nalowale nā ʻili. Akā, pono e ninini ʻia ka waina hou i loko o nā ʻiliʻili hou “. Luka 5:37
He aha kēia waina hou? A he aha nā ʻili waina kahiko? ʻO ka waina hou ke ola hou o ka lokomaikaʻi a mākou i hoʻopōmaikaʻi nui ai a ʻo nā ʻili waina kahiko ko mākou ʻano hāʻule kahiko a me ke kānāwai kahiko. ʻO ka mea a Iesu e haʻi mai nei iā mākou inā makemake mākou e loaʻa i kona lokomaikaʻi a me kāna aloha i loko o ko mākou ola pono mākou e ʻae iā ia e hoʻololi i kā mākou wā kahiko i mau hana hou a ʻapo i ke kānāwai hou o ka lokomaikaʻi.
Ua lilo ʻoe i mea hana hou? Ua ʻae ʻoe i kou mea kahiko e make i hiki i ke kanaka hou ke ala hou? He aha ke ʻano o ka lilo ʻana i hana hou i loko o Kristo i hiki ai ke ninini ʻia ka waina hou o ke aloha i kou ola?
ʻO ka lilo ʻana i hana hou i loko o Kristo ʻo ia hoʻi ke ola nei mākou i kahi pae hou a pili hou ʻole i kā mākou maʻa mua. ʻO ia ke hana a ke Akua i nā mea mana i ko mākou ola ma mua o ka mea hiki iā mākou ke hana ma kā mākou iho. ʻO ia hoʻi ua lilo mākou i "winekin" hou a kūpono i kahi e ninini ʻia ai ke Akua. A ʻo ia hoʻi, ʻo kēia "waina" hou ka ʻUhane Hemolele nāna e lawe a loaʻa i ko mākou ola.
I ka hana, inā ua lilo mākou i mea hana hou i loko o Kristo, a laila hoʻomākaukau pono mākou e loaʻa ka lokomaikaʻi o nā sacraments a me nā mea āpau e hiki ai i kā mākou pule i kēlā me kēia lā a me ka hoʻomana. Akā ʻo ka pahuhopu mua ka lilo i mau ʻili waina hou. No laila pehea mākou e hana ai?
Hana mākou i kēia ma ka bapetizo ʻana a laila me ke koho ʻana e huli i ka lawehala a ʻapo i ka ʻeuanelio. Akā ʻo kēia kauoha ākea mai ke Akua mai e huli i ka lawehala a ʻapo i ka ʻeuanelio, pono e noʻonoʻo a ola i kēlā me kēia lā. Ke hana nei mākou i nā hoʻoholo kūpono a me ka noʻonoʻo i kēlā me kēia lā e kiʻi iā Kristo i nā mea āpau, e ʻike mākou i ka ʻUhane Hemolele me ka mana ʻole, a ninini koke i ka waina hou o ka lokomaikaʻi i loko o kā mākou ola. E ʻike mākou i kahi maluhia a me ka hauʻoli hou e hoʻopiha ai iā mākou a loaʻa iā mākou ka ikaika ma mua o ko mākou hiki.
E noʻonoʻo i kēia lā he hana hou ʻoe i loko o Kristo. Ua hele hewa ʻoe mai kou ʻaoʻao kahiko a hoʻokuʻu i nā kaulahao i hoʻopaʻa iā ʻoe? Ua ʻapo ʻoe i ka ʻeuanelio hou piha a ʻae i ke Akua e ninini i ka ʻUhane Hemolele i kou ola i kēlā me kēia lā?
E ka Haku, e ʻoluʻolu e hana i kahi hana hou. E hoʻololi iaʻu a hoʻololi hou iaʻu. I koʻu ola hou i loko ou e lilo i mea e loaʻa mau ai ka ninini piha ʻana o kou lokomaikaʻi a me kou aloha. ʻO Iesū ke manaʻoʻiʻo wau iā ʻoe.
