HE NEHU KI TE NEHU.
IHANGA te tangata kite ahua o teAtua. E hara tena i te pena me ta te momona e ki nei he rite tonu te tinana tangata kite tinana Atua. E mea nei te Paipera "He wairau te Atua" kahore ona tinana. Na he mea whakawairua tatou, i rite ai tatou kite Atua. Otiia kua homai he tinana kiaua wairua na, hei mohoanga hei mahi i ta te Atua e pai ai ite ao nei. He ahakoa he mea matemate te tinana he mea hanga e te Atua kite oneone (Ken. ii, 1) Ka tangohia te wairua, ka mate te tinana, ka timata te memeha, te wehewehe, te pap 1rukaru, te hoki kite mea i hanga ai ia. "He puehu koe ka hoki ano koe kite puehu." (Kene iii, 19). Na ka ngohengohe tatou ki ta te Atua e pai ai, i te mea tukua nga renga mate, pirau kite oneone ka tanumia mete ki ano. "He oneone kite oneone ete he rere ke te oneone, te nehu, te pungarehu ahakoa kotahi tonu te mea i hanga mai ena. Ahakoa e toru aua kupu he whakaatu ka hoki ano ia mea ki tona ahua i te hanganga iho, a, i whakatinana ai i te mea e nohoia ana etc wairua i ora ai ia. Tena ko tena kupu he pungarehu kei roto tena kei nga whenua, kei etahi wahi ano o te tinana kite tahuna ka whakapungarehu tonu. Tera pea tetahi mea e marama ai te maori, he rakau ka rereke nei ona ahua kite mea ka mate, ka pirau haere. He mea ano ka whakapuehu, he mea ano ka whakawairakau ka tupuria e te otaota, he oneone, kite tahuna ka puehu. Kahore taua tikanga e meatia nei ko te puehu he hara ite Karaipiture; engari he ngoikore, he hanga noa iho ehara i te pera mete Atua Kenehi xviii, 27, Hopa xxx, 19). Tona tikanga ia he pouri, he ripeneta (Ehetere iv, 1 ; Hopa xxxxii, 6). Ehara rawa i te hara engari he murunga hara(Hipeix, 13). Na koi ana te tuturutanga o aua kupu i te nehunga tupapaku, ko nga mea i hanga ai te tinana e te Atua ka hoki ano ki tona ahua, ki tona ahua o te timatanga mai. na Rev. W. Beatty, o Akarana.
Kitea rawatia ake kua ngoikore ke ia. Tau tu whanako ete pakeha. Hei te ra tonu e whiti nei i te wa tonu e tiro mai ana nga Konohi o te tangata nana nga taonga. Pakeha! Pakeha ! Totoro ake ano tou ringa i runga i te mahi whanako he mano tonu te rironga mai. Te iwi ote matauranga te Pakeha!
