Lai Siangtho siamte in a gen uh ciang Sawltak Paul’ in a khualzin thumveina (the third missionary journey), AD 55/56 kiim-a a gelh hi, ci uh hi. Hih a thumvei khualzinna hunah (Rom laikhak banah) 1 & 2 Korin laikhak zong gelh hi, kici hi.

Rom Laikhak Thupina

Rom laikhak thupina tampi laka khat gen lehang, hih laikhak pen pawlpi tangthu a hun thupi mahmah [pawlpi] puahphatna (reformation) hong pianna hang khat hi, ci lehang kikhial lua lo ding hi. Ba’m cih leh, tua hun lai-a mi minthang leh puahphatna mei a tawh kuang, University of Wittenberg a professor Martin Luther ii laibu deih leh kingakna laibu khat ahi hi. Tua puahphatna hun kiimin [Roman Catholic] pawlpi sungah (tuhun tawh bel na tampi kilamdangta) pawlpi kalsuanzia ding a kilawm lo leh thu hoih lo tampi om hi. A hang lianpen leh bulpi sum hang ci leng kikhial lua lo ding hi.

Pope Leo X in Rom khuapi-ah St. Peter’s Cathedral kici lam nuam ahih manin sum tampi kisam a, tua dingin amah a mai-et siam mahmah, Archbishop Albert tungah vangam lut theihna letmat, ‘letter of indulgence’ kici, Dominican monk Johann Tetzel makaihna tawh zuak theihna khuan pia hi. Lai Siangtho in, “…khuavak sunga om mite sangin hih leitung mite in amaute kibatpihte tawh kizopzia-ah a geel siamzaw uh hi” (Lk 16:8) a cih bangin, Albert in mi kithutuakpih ziahziah ahih manin [RC] pawlpi sung panin langpanna om loin sum muhna dingin vangam lut theihna letmat zuak ziahziah uh hi.

Tua hang leh thu tuamtuam hangin Martin Luther in tua hun a pawlpi kalsuandan pen dik/maan lo hi, ciin Wittenberg khua-a Castle Church maiah October 31, 1517 in pawlpi kalsuanzia maan a saklohna hang a gelh “95 Theses” kici suangin, puahphatna mei tawh kuang hi.

Lai Siangtho in, “Sum itna [deihluatna] pen siatna namkim bulpi hi. Mi kimkhatte in sum deih lua-in upna pan pialkhia uh a, gimna-lungkhamna tampi a thuaklawh uh hi” (1 Tim 6:10) a cih bangin, sum deihluatna hang-in [RC] pawlpi paikhial a, Lai Siangtho tawh kituak lo, ‘upna’ hang hi loin, vangam pen sepna hiam, lei zawh thu hiama kilut ding hi, a cih pen Martin Luther in a nial theihna pen Rom laikhak a sin leh theihtelna pan hi kici hi. A hang bel, Rom laibu sungah Pasian ta/mi suahna, vangam lut theihna pen ‘upna hang bek’ (by faith alone) hi, cih kician takin kigelh hi (1:17; 3:21-26, 28; 5:1 c.f. Gal. 3:24; Efe. 2:8-9). Tua hun a pawlpi kalsuanzia pen Jesu Khris thuhilhna, “…Note in Pasian nasep leh sum nasep na thuahkhawm thei kei ding uh hi” (Mat. 6:24; Lk 16:13) cih tawh zong kikalh hilhel a, tua hun lai-in, ‘Na dangte khempeuh zong masa un; tua hi leh, Pasian gam leh a dikna hong kipiathuah ding hi!!’ khawng peuh ci zanzan mai thei tak uh!!

Lai Siangtho siamte in Rom laikhak pen khenpi lianpi nih – thu-up (doctrinal) lam tawh kisai (1-11) leh Khristian nuntakna, zuihpah theih ding (practical) lam tawh kisai (12-16) hi, ciin gen uh hi. A kimzaw deuhin ensuk lehang – Pasian nasem Paul a kipulakna, Rom mite a hopihna (greetings), a lunggulh leh laibu thu-tuunpi a genna (1:1-17); mihingte mawhna leh Pasian in a mawhsakna (1:18-3:20), mimawhte diktansakna/justification (3:21-5:21), sianthosakna/sanctification (6:1-8:17), pahtawina/glorification (8:18-39), Israel’ hun paisa, tuhun leh hun hong tung lai ding (9:1-11:36), Khristian nuntakzia ding leh manpha khakna (12:1-16:27), ciin zong kikhen thei ding hi.

Rom 14:8; A Kim le Paam

Gensa mah bangin Rom 12 pan a tawp dong pen Khristian nuntakna a zuih pah theih ding thu kigelhna ahi hi. Rom 12 sungah Khristian khat ading a Pasian tung a kipiakna, a hingtanga kipiakna lam (duty to God) kici thei ding a, a lian 13-na pen gam (leh hong uk makaite) tunga omdan ding (duty to state) leh, a lian 14 leh 15-na pen i Khristian pihte tunga vaipuak (duty to man) danin kigen thei ding hi.

Tua banah, Rom 14 a neu 1 pan simsuk lehang, kisel theihna thute tawh kisai a upna thanemte mawhpaih lo dingin hong hilh pah hi. Tua tawh kizomin, nek le dawn thu leh ni khat a thupisak diakte thu tawh hong zom hi (n. 1-6). Tua ci bang mite a kaihkhop kim theihna dingin Jesu si-in nungta kik ahih manin, kuama tungah thukhen lo dingin hong vaikhakin (n. 10, 13), kuamah puksak lo dingin hong hilh lailai banah, tua ding a kisam thu tampi gen lai hi (n. 13ff).  Tua ci bang kawmkalah, Khris adinga nungta dingin hong vaikhak hi. Aneu 7-na sungah, kuamah ama ading bekin nungta loin, si lo ahihna thu kimu hi.

Khris Ading Nuntakna

Khris ading nuntakna cih ciangin, i nuntakna kingakna bulpi Khris hi ding, ama deihna bang a nuntak ding cihna ahi hi. Jesu Khris mahmah zong, Pa Pasian deihna semin, ama nopsakna ding hi loin, leitung mawhnei mite leh Pa Pasian kikalah kilemna a om theihna dingin Pa Pasian in leitungah gentheihna leh sihna thuak ding a hong sawl hi a, tua Jesu nasep maban zom a, ‘kilemkiksakna thupuak’ sem dinga palaite (ambassadors for the ministry of reconciliation) i hi uh hi (2 Kor 5:17-21).

Lungngaihhuai…

Khristian nuntakna pen Khris sungah nuam a, leitung lamah haksa hi. Zomite kum za val lungdamna thu sang khin napi, i picin theihlohna khat pen a nuam bekbek lamen, bang hiam haksatna hong om ciang zawh sawm loin, tua haksatna kizosak pahpah. Leitung piancil pan Pasian nung a zuite nuntakna i et ciangin, a nuam bekbek hi loin, bawlsiatna, thonginn sung, gentheihna leh sihna nangawn thuak toto uh hi.

Tuhun i Khristianna khawng i ngaihsut ciang, cidamna ding, hauhna ding, mite pahtawina ding ciang bekin, leitung a haksatna thuak ding lam hi loin kinak kalsuan mahmah hi. Tua ci bang a gensiamte paakta, pahtawi, cial thuahthuah mawk lai hi hang! I lunggulh leh lametpen ding, a thupipen sih khit nung a ‘tawntung nuntakna’ ahih laitakin, tua pen thupingaihsut loin, a kiim le paam teng i baan sawk a, masakloh ding kimasak zel ahih manin, phun leh ciakna, nuak leh thadahna, pawlpi sung cidamlohna lianpi omin, pawlpi kitamtam mawk hi. Minphatna, pilna, siamna, sum le pai a thupi lo cihna hi lo hi. Tuate neih ding, zat ding a Pasian in a bawl ahi hi. Ahi zongin, i thupingaihsut pen tuate himasa lo ding hi, cih i gennop hizaw hi. Jesu in zong vantungah i min a kigelhna hang a lungdam dingin hong hilhzaw hi (Lk 10:20).

Thukhupna

Thu-ummasate nuntakna i ngaihsut ciangin Khris ading a nuntakna uh pen baih lo hi. Khris sungah nuamsa uh ahih manin citak takin kalsuan uh a, leitung haksatnate kizosak lo hi. Nungzuipite (apostles) pan kipan, Stephen, Paul leh thu-ummite nuntakna pan etteh theih ding tampi om hi (Sawl. 6, 7; 2 Kor 11:16-33). Thudik, thumaan, Pasian thutak hangin gentheihna, thuakna, gilkial-dangtakna, mite langdona, leh thahna dong ciang a thuak uh hangin, citak takin Khris adingin nungta uh hi. Sawltak Paul in, “…Khris ‘minthanna’ i tanpih theihna dingin ama ‘thuaknate’ i ‘thuakpih’ takpi leh Khris tawh go luahkhawm, Pasian goluahte i hi hi” (Rom 8:17) ci a, “eite in i ‘thuak’ leh amah tawh i ‘uk’-khawm ding hi. Amah leh amah kinial thei lo ahih manin amah i nial leh, amah in zong eite hong nial ding hi” (2 Tim. 2:12) ci hi. Tua banga Khris adingin a nuam leh haksa thuak ngam lehang, pawlpi, khua, minam sung hong cidam ding a, Khris hangin a piang bangbangah – i hau a i zawng zongin, i vah a i kial zongin, simmawhna leh bawlsiatna thuakin, thupha tampi i san ciangin zong kilungkim thei ding hi (c.f. Mat. 6:25, 26; Fil. 4:11-13; 1 Tim. 6:6-12; Heb. 13:5).
