Saptuam sagihte toh Kisai Theihtuak Khenkhatte
1. Kilakna bung 2na leh 3na a thute Jesu Khrist’ kampau ahi ua, Aman a gen bang bang a sawltak Johan in a gelh ahi. Hiai bung nihte ah Jesu Khrist in Thukhun Thak saptuamte gamtat ding dan: a hih dingte leh hihlouh dingte; A kipahpihte leh kipahpih louhte kitel tak in genkhia hi.

2. Kilakna bung 2na leh 3na a thute Jesu Khrist in a Vaihawmna Laltutphah apan A gen ahi. Hiai bung nih a thute A thohnawn nung a van a A vaihawmna tutphah apan Jesu Khrist in A gen ahih ziak in poimohngaih ding ahi. Hiai khawvel a mihingte’ mitmuh a simmoh huaitak a sa a hong vak lai a A thugen ahi kei a, lei leh van a thuneihna teng teng piak a om a, Pa Pathian taklam a laltutphah apan a gen ahih ziak in mawk koihdap mai louh ding ahi.

3. Kilakna bung 2na leh 3na sung ah Jesu Khrist in “A Thugen Zak Ding” (ngaikhiat ding) chih sagih vei A gen hi. Hiai in A thugente saptuamte’n a poimohdan a theihna ding uh leh a zuih ding uh A deihna a sagihveitak gennon ahi. A thugente saptuamte khalam dinmun leh hinkhua ding diktak ahi a, hiai dinmun leh hinkhua nei lou saptuamte Aman thunun ding ahih ziak ahi. (Kilakna 2:7; 11; 17; 29; 3:6; 13; 22).

4. Saptuam Adia Poimoh pen Khalam Dinmun leh Hinkhua ahi. Mihingte’n saptuam i gen chiang in a mi phazah (membership) in kigen deuh nak hi. Saptuam a minkhum a tam zoh peuh leh ahihkeileh biakinn kai mi a tam zoh peuh leh saptuam hat in kikoih hi. Etsakna in, mi 2000 biakinn a kai zelna tualsung saptuam, mi 100 a kaina tualsung saptuam sang a hatzaw a ngaihtuah ahi. Himahleh Jesu Khrist in biakinn a mi kaizah (a tam leh tawm) ngaih poimoh pen in a nei kei. Aman saptuam sagihte kiang ah saptuam mizah a tam ziak a A kipahpihna thu ahihkeileh a tawm ziak a A salhna thu i mu kei. Saptuam ah a mi tam leh tawm thil poimoh pen ahi kei a, a poimoh pen saptuam mite khalam dinmun leh a hinkhua uh ahi zaw.

Mi khenkhat in kumsim budget leh sum neihzah in saptuam dinmun a taklang a chi uh. Kumsim budget khangsak zou a, semtu goih zah a behlap touh zel leh saptuam khang a masawn in koih uhi. Biakinn lian leh hoih, Staff quarters tam zaw leh hoih zaw a neih zoh uh leh saptuam khang a masawn in kingai uhi. Hiaite Jesu Khrist’ mitmuh in khalam dinmun toh teh in bangmah lou leh manphatna bei bang lel ahi. Jesu Khrist in saptuam a A zon thil khat kia a om a, huai ahihleh saptuam mite piangthak ahi uhia? Piangthakte’n Ka thupiakte a zui uhia? Keimah theihpihtu muanhuai ahi uhia? chih ahi. Saptuam neitu Jesu Khrist in saptuam ah leilam thilte zong lou in, vanlam thilte A zong zaw; salam thilte zong lou in khalam thilte A zong zaw hi: “Toupa’n mihing et bang in a en kei, mihing in pawlam a kilatdan a en a, Toupa’n bel lungtang a en zaw hi (I Samuel 16:7). Piangthak lou, Pathian thumang lou, muh theih leitung thil leh sum leh pai a hausa mi 2000 omna saptuam sang in mi piangthak, Pathian’ thupiakte zui, diktat tak leh Pathian limsak tak a hing, himahleh muhtheih leitung thilte leh salam a hausa lou, mi 200 lel omna saptuam, Pathian’ mitmuh in a manpha zaw hi. Noah leh a inkuanpihte mi 8 kia himahleh huai hun a midang tamtakte sang in Pathian’ mitmuh in a manpha zaw uhi, aziak ahihleh Noah leh a innsung mite Pathian mitmuh a, diktat leh Amah thumang ahi ua, midang teng bel mi diktatlou leh Pathian thumanglou ahih ziak uh ahi.

5. Saptuam a Mi Poimoh Pen Makaite Ahi Uh. Jesu Khrist in saptuam sagihte kiang a A laikhakte, saptuam chih a “Angel” kichi minloh (address) in ahihkeileh tawn in A khak hi. Hiai “angel” kichi saptuam chih a pastorte ahihkeileh makaite genna ahi. Jesu Khrist in saptuamte a mohsakna, a taihilhna leh a omdan ding ua A gente pastor ahihkeileh makai tawn in A gen hi. Hiai in saptuam mite’ khalam dinmun tung a mohpua lianpen leh poimoh pen pastor ahihkeileh makaite ahi uh, chih a taklang hi. Pastor ahihkeileh makai hingal a, mohpuakna ngaipoimoh lou mi tung a gik hi (Jeremia 23).

Tulai in saptuam makai (Pastor leh upate) muanhuai lou, Pathian’ thutak ahihna bang tak a gen ngam lou a, saptuam mite ngaihnop zawng, amaute kipak sak a, a nopsakna (entertainment) ding uh thute gen thei lel kiom panta. Amaute’n Kumzabi 19na a Baptist thugen minthang leh Pathian zat mah mah, Charles Spurgeon in a na genkholh thu a tangtung sak uhi. Spurgeon in “A time will come when instead of Shepherds feeding the sheep, the church will have clowns entertaining the goats.” (Hun a hong tung ding a, huai hun chiang in saptuam in belamte vak belampute hilou in keelte nopsakna pe ding chiamnuih siamte (Jokers) a nei zaw ding) a na chi hi. Tulai in saptuam a thugen khenkhat in Laisiangthou in kitel tak a a gen khelhna, Pathian thangpaihna, Pathian thununna, tangtawn gawtmun chihte gen ngam nawn lou in, Pathian’ itna, hoihna, vualzawlna chihte leh mihing lungsim nopna ding leh salam damtheihna ding ban ah sum leh pai hauh theihna ding lampite gen tam zawta uhi. Hiai bang thute leltak gen pastor leh makai hilou a, saptuam mite pianthakna ding, khalam khanna leh pichinna ding leh Jesu Khrist adia theihpihtu muanhuai hihna ding awlmoh pen a nei a, Pathian thutak ahihna bang tak a gen ngam hih ding Pathian in saptuam makaite A sapna leh A lametna ahi zaw, chih theih ding ahi.
