Kathryn Kuhlman in, “Kha siangthou hi ka mi tuahkhakte lak a mi lamdang pen ahi” (Holy Spirit is the most wonderful person I ever meet) a chi hial hi. Hiai Khasiangthou toh na kimaituah ngei hiam kingaihtuah in.

    (d) Khamangthangte itna: Khasiangthou nasep diktak latsak a om masa tuh namchih akipan mi tengteng in hotdamna a ngahna ding ua pau leh ham thu amau pianpih pau chiat a zaksak a hi (Nas.2:11). Kha siangthou toh dimna ah mangthangte hotdamna ding awlmoh penin a nei uhi (Nas.2:38-40;4:12, 33; Ro.10:1). Kha toh dimna dik Khamangthangte itna, veina ahi (Ro.9:1-5).
