Tua bang mah in, mi khat peuh i it pen leh itloh pen a hi zongin “gamtat khialhna leh mawhna a bawl mite tungah a kilawm a kituak in gawtna (punishment) leh khaalna (corrective action)” pen kilam danglo in zatna zong a hihi. A mimal sangin a thu masak a lampai na in hong sinsak a hih leh mi khempeuh a kikim (or) kibuk kim (equally) in bawl (treat) ding cihna a hihi.

June 13, 2023 (Tuesday) ni a New Orleans Ernest N.

(Vote pia mite pen Tuucing – Pastor te a hihi).

Hih thu a pian ciangin thu-um mi leh thu-umlo mi tampi tak sungah kitguihna (shock) om hi. Pawlkhat in Rick Warren nasep pen hoih sa in panpih uhhi. A ma mimal minthanna, sepzawhna, lawhcinna leh huzaapna hangin a sep a bawl khempeuh panpih, thapia uh a, SBC in hih bangin mi thupi, mi lian leh mi pammaih khat a hawlkhiat pen diksa lo in SBC mawhpaih uhhi. Pawlkhat leuleu in SBC pen mimal sangin a thu (guipi) tung a ding zaw a hih manin a mau (SBC) upna bulpi (doctrines) tawh kituak a nasem a hih manin hih bangin khaalna (corrective action) a kipiak pen hoih sa, thukim uh a, SBC in a sep ding a kilawm a sem a hihi, ci uhhi. (SBC pen doctrines tung a kilam a hih manin sep khial bawl khial omlo, paidan man mahmah hi ci uhhi.)

Hih gawtna (punishment) leh khaalna (corrective action) a pianna nung thu tom cik hih bang a hihi. SBC i upna pulakna (statement of Faith) sungah “Tuucing (Pastor) nasep pen pasal i sep ding bek a kiciangtan (limit) a hihi. Numei pen dai khinkhian (quiet) in Pasal nung zui ding hi. Numei in Pasal nasep ding (Tuucing- Pastoring) a sep ding hilo hi” ci’n sanna kigelh hi. Tua hi a, Saddleback Church in numei Tuucing (Pastor) a neih (zat) pen SBC i upna guipi tawh kilawm ta lo hi (deemed not be in friendly cooperation) a hih manin kihawlkhia (expel) hi ci’n Baptist Press in thusuah nei hi.

(Kammal Siampi (Priest) leh Tuucing (Pastor) pen Laisiangtho sungah a zatna zong kibanglo a hih manin, tuhun in zong a kibanglo in sanna leh zatna pen Laisiangtho zuihna hi zaw ding hi) Hih mun ah a lak khiat huai thu khat in, Saddleback Church i sepzia, sanzia leh paizia pen SBC i upna guipi tawh kituak maw, kituaklo cih tawh kisai etcikna, kan khiatna pen a kip thukan pawl (Credential committee) in kicing tak in nei hi. Tua bek hilo in, Saddleback Church pawlpi pan in thu genna, Pastor Rick Warren i thu genna leh a aw uh mi kim in a zakna ding lampi honsak, (BaptistNews.com ah suaksak) uh hi. (Thulang gen bek tawh thu khensat loh ding, thu kicing in zak khit ciangin thukhupna bawl ding cih lim lak a hih manin a kisep zia ah pau banna tawm hi.)

Hih lai gelhna sungah, “Saddleback Church pen man hi, manlo hi; SBC nasep pen hoih hi, hoihlo hi; Pasal Tuucing pen a man hi, manlo hi; Numei Tuucing pen kilawm hi, kilawm lo hi cih a gen nuam i hi kei hi. I gennop thu pen a hih leh “A mimal sangin a thu masa zaw” cih a gen nuam i hi a, Saddleback Church leh Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) pen etkakna ding in zang ut i hih manin a gen masa i hihi. (Cihnopna ah a upna guipi (doctrines) – or a thu paipi (theory) man leh manlo a kalhkhia (argument) nuam i hi kei a, na kisep zia (or) paizia ah a om sa thu leh a om sa mi kikal khen khia a vaihawmna a pulak nuam bek i hihi.)

Or Pastor Rick Warren i mimal lawhcinna, pawlpi lawhcinna, makaih zawhna, min thanna, huzaapna cihte en in na khensat tam?

A cih nopna ah bel ei mite kipawlna (or) pawlpi sungah hih bang dinmun in thu khensat a kul ding in om hi leng, a mi i lawhcinna, minthanna en in a mimal lam ki-awn zaw ding hi, a ci a hihi.

Mihingte pen a mi a om man a kipawl khawm a hih sam hangin, tua kipawl khawmna dingin pen a thu a om na tung a kiphut, ki ding leh kilam masa zaw a hihi.

Tua bangin thu a kikhek tak ciangin, pawl lut mite in zong kipawlna guipi (te) lenkip leh panpih ding sangsik in, Lutang panmun len mite i cih bangbang “hoih hi, hi hi” ci mawkmawk mi tampi om thei hi. A taktak in tua bang mite pen makai siamna kemlo (lack of leadership qualifications) a hihi. Tua bang hun tak teh a kipau lap (or) kidik tansakna (justify) na pen “a mah siam kei leh, (or) Pasian in sathau nilh kei leh, (or) a mah om kei leh i pawl pen khangto lo ding” cih peuh a hihi. Tua bang dinmun ah Lutang a sem mite in Pawl i kiphuh khiatna guipi (te) pan lam a pial ciangin thu khensat ding mite in a thu tungah ding nawnlo in a mimal tungah dingin thu khensat uh hi. (SBC Vs Rick Warren tawh tehkak zel thei ding kisam hi)

Mi pawlkhat pen nuntakna ah lawhcing mahmah na pi’n thu guipi (te) tungah dingtang na lam-ah thanem mahmah hi. Lasak siam mahmah in thu gen lamah tha nem hi. Thugen siam mahmah na pi’n lasak thanem zong om hi. Lo khoh siam mahmah na pi’n inn bawl (lam) ah thanem hi. Mi cim khat in a genna ah “Zomite pen Tuucing nasep a siam nak leh, pawlsung ah gelna leh vaihawmna (management) a siam mahmah kisa lel hi” a cih ka za ngei hi. Pawl sung mite in zong “mun khat ah a lawhcin nak leh, mun khempeuh ah a siam pen” ding sa ziau kha mawk thei hi.

Tua bang hunte ah pawlmi sung pan in pawl kiphuhna thu guipi(te) a len leh a kepcing sawm mite pen kikhial sak, man kisa lo thei zaw lai hi.

(A thu sangin a mi masak zaw cihna a hihi)

A thu zong khial thei, a mi zong khial thei hi. A thu a khial a hih leh, a khialhna kicing tak leh hoih tak in kantel, lak khia in a kipuah theih bangin, a mi a khialh leh zong a kim a kiang a om mite in a thu paizia tung ah ding kip in a puah theih, a puah ding a hihi.
