Mihing’ pilna le siamna khempeuh in zong, na aneu bel khat sung nangawn ah nuntakna guang thei lo hi.

Tua mah bangin mite’ lungtang sunga apiang kha lam nuntakna zong Pasian’ kiang pan a hong pai nuntakna bek mah tawh apiang ahi hi. Mi khat peuh “tung lam panin asuah khiat kei leh” Christ in a piak ding nuntakna ama’n ngah kha lo ding hi (John 3:3).CKZ 60.2

Khantohna thu zong nuntakna thu mah tawh kibang hi. Paak ngumte palh sak a, paakpalhte agah sak pen Pasian ahi hi. Khaicite khangsak a, “a masa-in ateh, tua ciangin avui, tua ciangin avui tungah atang” apiangsak pen Ama vangliatna ahi hi (Mark 4:28). Kamsang Hosea in, Isreal-te “unok bangin khang ding hi.” “Ankung bangin hing dinga, lenggui bangin zaam ding hi,” ci hi (Hosea 14:5,7). “Unok kungte’ khan dan a ngaihsun dingin” Jesu in (68) hong cial hi (Luke 12:27). Singkungte le paakkungte zong amau’ lung hihmawhnate, amau’ hanciamnate tawh akhang hi loin, amau’ nuntakna dinga Pasian’ vaihawm sakna bangbang a saanna uh tawh akhang ahi hi.

Nate pan a thuphate tawh singkung le ganhingte a khuasak uh mah bangin, Christ zong Amah a muangte’ a dingin khuasakna ahi hi. Christ pen amau’ “tawntung khuavak,” “nitaang leh lum” ahi hi (Isaiah 60:19; Late 84:11). Amah pen “Israel mite’ a dingin daitui ahi hi.” “A kimet lopate’ tungah guah bangin Amah zusuk ding hi” (Hosea 14:5; Late 72:6). Amah nuntakna tui hi-a, “Leitung mite nuntakna apia, vantung pan a ahong pai suk Pasian’ anlum ahi hi” (John 6:33).CKZ 61.1

Huih in leitung pumpi atuam cip bang teek in Pasian in tehkak theih aom lo, a Tapa ahong piakkhongna ah, a hehpihna thupha-huih kuumpi tawh leitung buppi atuam cip ahi hi.

Jesu in, “Keima sungah om un, tua hileh note’ sungah kei ka om ding hi. Lenggui hiang in a guipi sungah aom kei leh ama thu-in gah aneih theih loh mah bangin, keima sungah na om kei uh leh note in zong bangmah na hih thei kei ding uh hi... Kei lo-in note in bangmah na (69) hih thei kei ding uh hi,” acih ciangin hih thu mah ahong hilh ahi hi (John 15:4,5). Ahiang in khanna le gahna aneih theihna dingin akungpi abelh mah bangin, nang zong nuntak siangtho na neih theihna dingin Christ na belh akul ahi hi. Amah tawh lo-in nuntakna na nei kei hi.

Tua banga a hanciam uh hangin piang zo lo ding hi. Jesu in, “Kei lo-in bangmah na hih zo kei ding uh hi,” ci hi. Hehpihna sungah ih khanna, ih lungdamna, ih kimanna, cihte khempeuh Christ tawh ih kipawlna pan bek in piang hi. Amah tawh nisim naisim a kikholhna, -Ama sunga omna bek mah tawh hehpihna sungah a khangto ding ihi hi. Amah pen ih upna ahong mapat-sak bek hi lo-in, ahong mahial-sak ding Pa zong hilai hi. A masa bel, a nunung bel le a tawntung in Christ ahi hi. Ih masuan a kipatcilna le a tawpna bek ah Amah hong om ding hi lo-in, ih kalsuan sim in lamdungtawn ah eite ahong ompih ding ahi hi. David in, “A tawntung in ka masuan ah Topa ka om sak hi; ka tak lamah Amah om ahih manin, kei ka ling kei ding hi,” ci hi (Late 16:8).CKZ 62.3

“Christ’ sungah bang cih om theih ding ka hi hiam?” cia na lung akham leh, Amah na saan cil lai-a na hih bang mahin hih in. “Topa ahi Christ Jesu na saan uh mah bangin, Ama sungah nungta un.” “Midik in upna tawh a nungta ding hi” (Colossians 2:6; Hebrews 10:38). Ama a’ ahi khin ding, Amah bia-a athu a mang dingin, Pasian’ tungah nang mahmah kipia-in, na Honpa dingin Christ na saang hi. Nang le nang na mawhnate kimaisak in, na lungtang na kheek (70) thei kei hi; ahi zongin Pasian’ tungah na kipiak ciangin, Christ hangin Amah in tuate khempeuh hong hih sak hi, ci-in na um hi. Upna tawh Christ a’ nahi hi; upna tawh Ama sungah na khangto ding hi -hih pen piakna le laakna ahi hi. Na lungtang, na utna, na sepna -a vekpi-in Amah na pia ding hi, -Ama hong ngette khempeuh amang dingin Ama tungah nang mahmah kipia in; tua ban-ah thu na man nadingin tha ahong pia ding—na hatna, na dikna, le na tawntung huhpa ahi ding, na lung sungah Christ ahong om nading, in thupha khempeuh a kicinna ahi Christ, a vekpi in na la ding hi.CKZ 63.1

Na nasepna sungah tuni hong zangh in. Kei tawh hong om in la, ka nasep khempeuh Nang’ sungah kisem ta hen.” Hih pen ni sim vaipi ahi hi. Zingsang simin tua ni’ a dingin Pasian’ tungah ki-ap in.

Hih kammal sung-ah tawldamna, kipna le khamuanna thu om hi. “Ka kiangh hong pai un,...tawldamna ka hong pia ding hi,” ciin hong sam lai hi (Matthew 11:28). “Topa’ sungah tawlnga un la, Amah ngak hithiat un,” cih laphuak siampa’ kammal ah zong hih thu hong kilang hi (Late 37:7). Isaiah in zong, “Om hit-hiatna le khamuanna sungah na hatna uh om ding hi,” hong ci hi (Isaiah 30:15). Hih tawldamna pen mawk omna tawh a kingah hi lo hi; banghang hiam cihleh Honpa in tawldamna ahong khapna sungah, “Keima hakkol kisuan un;.tua hileh tawldamna na ngah ding uh hi,” cih nasep ding sawlna zong kihel hi (Matthew 11:29).
