1. What was the name of Noah’s papa?
2. Did Noah have any tama? How many?
3. What were the names of Noah’s tama?
4. What kind of wood did Noah build the ark out of?
5. What kind of manu did Noah send out to check for dry ground?
That comes from the Bible?
“Haere ai te whakakake i mua o te whakangaromanga, te wairua whakapehapeha i mua i te hinganga.”
Nga Whakatauki 16:18
“Pride leads to destruction, and arrogance to downfall.”
Proverbs 16:18
This means if we are too conceited or self-important, something will happen to make us look hukehuke. We may have boasted about doing something, and then it has turned to custard and we felt ashamed or embarassed.
The opposite of having pride is being māhaki, and that is not always easy for us but, if we genuinely want to please Ihowā, He will help us.
Ephesians 4:2 “Be always humble, gentle, and patient. Show your love by being tolerant with one another.”
Ihu Karaiti is our example. He had all the mana and authority of Ihowā, His Papa, but He told His hoa (and us too) ”If anyone has a desire to become great among you, let him be your servant; And whoever has a desire to be first among you, let him take the lowest place.” Matthew 20:27
“Pērā i te Tama a te tangata, kīhai nei i haere mai kia mahia he mea māna, engari, kia mahi ia, ā, kia tuku i a ia kia mate hei whakautu mō ngā tāngata tokomaha.”
Matiu 20:28
Even as the Son of man did not come to have servants, but to be a servant, and to give his life for the salvation of men.”
Matthew 20:28
