Freedom From Deception

  • Ex. 32:1 When the people saw that Moses delayed to come down from the mountain, the people gathered around Aaron, and said to him, “Come, make gods for us, who shall go before us; as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.”
  • Ex. 32:2 Aaron said to them, “Take off the gold rings that are on the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me.”
  • Ex. 32:3 So all the people took off the gold rings from their ears, and brought them to Aaron.
  • Ex. 32:4 He took the gold from them, formed it in a mold, and cast an image of a calf; and they said, “These are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!”
  • Ex. 32:5 When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation and said, “Tomorrow shall be a festival to the LORD.”
  • Ex. 32:6 They rose early the next day, and offered burnt offerings and brought sacrifices of well-being; and the people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to revel.

In the wilderness, the Israelites happened to put their trust in Moses rather than God. When they thought that Moses disappeared, there came backsliding and corruption.

When people put their eyes on man, there are three consequences:

  1. They will spend their times and belongings for meaningless life (Ex. 32:2-4).
  2. They celebrate their lives in worldly manner (Ex. 32:5)
  3. They are committed to other God (Ex. 32:6).

Freedom from deception: In order to be free from any deception from this world: 

  1. Be humble before God 1 Pet 5:5,
  2. Love the truth/the word of God, 2 Thes 2:9
  3. Fear the Lord, Ps 34:13-14.
  4. Make the cross of Jesus the center of your life 1 Cor 2:1-5

Kawl Cozah Dirhmun le A Ruahning (Policy) le Laimi

Caganntu: Rev. Dr. Sang Awr 

Rev. Dr. Sang Awr hi Myanmar Institute of Theology ah Vice Principal reipi a tuan hnu ah, pension a lak ih a tu cu Myanmar Baptist Convention ah President a tuan laifang a si. Laimi in hruaitu patling pakhat a si. Hih a canganmi hi Singapore ah cancer natnak in siizung a to lai ah seherh zet in kan Laimi pawl mitvan theinak ding hrangah, a nganmi a si ih, ka khuaruah in kauh ter ngaingai.

Biahmaithi:  Biaknak lei riantuanmi ka si nain kan cozah nih ram an kan hruaining ka zoh tikah ka purh khawh tawk ka hmuhning tial ka duh. Laimi dirhmun in cuanh ka duh fawn. Biaknak lei Vuanci nih kum khat ah voihnih tluk Kawlram chung biaknak lei riantuantu upa he tonnak an tuah tawn i MBC President dirhmun in kaa tel ve theo.  Khrihfa lawng si loin Muslim le Hindu zong an i tel. Kanmah duhmi chimnak nakin anmah nih zul hna seh ti an kan duhmi kha an kan chimh tawn. A donghnak ah nan duhmi kan chim ve uh an ti i biaknak ah luatnak a um lonak, biaknak lei inn sak a harnak, zalong tein i pumh khawh lonak, thawngtha chimtu harnak an tonning hna kan chim tik hna ah “tha tein kan in zohpiak hna lai” an ti nain a taktak ah cun kan duhnak an tuah bal lo. Biaknak lei vuanci cu ralbawi General a si ve caah ralkap kalning in a kan hruai ko. Hi bantuk ka hmuhtonmi tete le nihin cozah an dirhmun le cozah nih thil an ruahning le Laimi dirhmun kha ka hmuhning ka hun tial lai.

1.  Kawl Cozah Dirhmun: 

Kawl cozah dirhmun kan zoh hmasa lai. Nihin Kawl cozah dirhmun kan zoh tikah hngal ngai in a um.  Laiholh in “Hngal” kan timi hi “midang zeirel lo, kaa zaa ve” timi ruahnak ngeih khi a si. Ralkap nih kum 50 deng an kan uk cang i nai hrawng hi hlah maw an hngal khun ka ti. Tlangcungmi ral a thomi hna zong kan daihter khawh hna. Cun ramleng in cozah dohnak aphunphun a tuahmi hna zong zeipipa tuah kho ding an si lo, aho cozah zong nih langhngan in an bawm hna lo tiah an zei hriktida a thak lo. Cun vawleipi kalning zoh tikah kan dirhmun a fek tiah an i ruah. UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon nih phone a chawnh hmanh ah Pu Than Sui nih a tlai duh lo. UN Secretary General a si an ti tikah voihnih tiang a chiahter men hna. UN zong zeiah an rel lem lo tinak a si. Nargis lio zongah US le French tinbaw an luhter hna lo. Kawlholh in chim ahcun an i seihchiah taktak. Hiti hin an hngal ngamnak cu a ruang tete an um. 

1.1. Ram Hruainak Upadi Fehternak (Constitution Referendum)  

Nan theih cio bantukin ramhruainak upadi cu an suai I referendum an tuah. Rammi zapi zakhat ah 90 reng lo nih an kan thohkhanmi cozah kan si tiah an i lunghmuih ngai. Kan duhmi kan tuah khawh i kan dirhmun a fek cang, tiah an i ruah. Rammi thinlung taktak a si lo, ti cu ralbawi a fim deuh nih cun an hngalh ko lai nain hruaitu zapi ruahnak ah cun kan ti kho taktak, rammi nih an duh taktak ko, ti lungput khi an ngei dih. Democracy min a pu nain ralkap kut thiamthiam ah kan um lai. Mizapi hi zeidah an tuah khawhmi a um lem tiin lalhnawh zong khi a si men lai. Rammi kan si a fah tuk zongah annih cu an rum i an zei a poi lo. Mipi kan si a fah chin cuahmah zongah an zei a poi lo. Cucu lung a fim ko mi caah celh awkah a har hringhran.

1.2. Ramdang Thohkhannak:  Vawleicung politics luanning ah vawlei tuanbia hi kanmah lei a hoih cang tiah an ruah. Amerikan le EU hi an chan a dih pah ziahmah lai i Tuluk , Russia , India chan a tho lai tiah an zumh. Cu ti an ruahnak cu a ruang a um.

1.2.1. Tuluk Ram:  Kawlram le Tuluk hi hlan deuhpi in aa dawmi ram innpa an rak si. Nai hrawng in pehtlaihnak a thuk chinchin. Tuluk nih UN ah Kawlram kong a chuah paoh ah Veto in a khamh. Russia zong nih cu thiamthiam. Beijing Olypic lioah Tabboo halchia an timi pakhat cu zeibantuk Journalist hmanh nih Kawlram kong hal khawh lo dingah an telh. Hi tlukin Kawlram an dirpi hi a chan a um.

1) Kawlram hi an thil zuarnak market tha tuk kan si. Nichiar Tuluk ram in Muse khua le a dangdang in a lutmi thil hi chim cawk a si lo. Tuluk thil a hmang lomi kan um ti lo. Tuluk an i miak tuk.

2) Kawlram in Zinan Pipeline tuah an duh. Tuluk nih zakhat ah 90 cu Middle East in zinan a cawk. Singapore pawng Macalla Straits in tinbaw in phurh a si. Nikhatkhat ah Amerika maw, ram pakhatkhat he buainak a um ahcun zinan phurhnak lam a pit sual lai tiah an hna a ngam lo. Cucaah Bengal rili in Kawlram tan in Tuluk ram ah pipeline in a luh ahcun an caah a miak tuk, security caah hnangam tuk a si. Tuluk nih UN ah a dirkamh bantukin Kawl cozah nih Zinan Pipeline tuahnak nawl a pek ve.

3) Tuluk cu a rauh hlan ah Super power a si lai tihi an theih tuk fawn. Sipuazi lei zongin Amerika changtu dirhmun a phan pah cang. Holh set tung loin thil tam tuk a tuah. Nitlaklei hruainak model hmang loin an cozah reform a tuah. Deng Tsio Ping nih “chizawh hi a ran le a nah bia a pi lo, zu a seh khawhtu kha bia a pi deuh” a ti. Chim duhmi cu nitlaklei hruainak model theng hi a tha bik a si hlei lo, ram a thancho kha bia pi a tinak a si, Tuluk model hi kan hlawhtling tiah an i ruah cang. Tuluk he ram innpa kan si pinah a thangcho chin lengmangmi bochan awktlak ram a si fawn. Tuluk kan i bochan ahcun aho nih dah zei an kan ti khawh lai tiah an ruah. Hi ruangah hin kan dirhmun a fek ko tiah an hngal chinnak a si. Tuluk nih Koko tikulh a halmi zong hi a pek khawh men. A chung thil kan fiang lo.

1.2.2. Russia Ram:     Hi karlak ah Russia a lut ve. UN zongah Tuluk a chim hlan hmanh ah Kawlram dirkamhnak a thawk. Tuluk he Veto Power in Kawlram an khamh. Vawlei politics luanning ngai hi Amerika he an i daw lem lo timi paoh kha tha an pek hna. Afrika le Latin Amerika zongah thuk ngai in an lut cang. Cold war a um ti loh ti a si nain a hramte a taang rih. Georgia kong ah a fiang khun. Thil biapi a chuah ahcun Shanghai Declaration ram hna zong an i kom kho fawn. Kawlram chungah bawmhnak an tuah.. Russian Scientists Kawlram ah zeizatdah an um ti kan fiang kho lo. Acheu nih cun 1000 tluk an um lai tiah an ti. Mandalay -Maymyo lam pawngah inn nganpipi an sak i a tam bik cu cuka ah cun an um ti a si. Kawlram mi Nuclear science cawn dingin Russia nih full sholarship a pek hna. Tukum 2008 chungah a kalmi hna hmanh hi minung 900 an si cang. Kum 2000 in 2010 tiang project a si i tam ngai an kal cang. Tutan a kalmi ah Laimi zong 4 tluk an i tel ve. Ph.D tiang cawnter an timh hna.. Hmailei ah fimthiamnak lei in Kawlram thanchoternak caah thil tampi an tuah. Hi ruangah Kawl cozah a lung a hmui i a hngalnak a si fawn.

1.2.3. India Ram:      India ram zong a lut ve. Kawlram a dawt tuk caah cun si dawh cu a si lo. Tuluk an luh tuk tikah a thinphan dawh a si. Tuluk le India cu ramri kong ah a buai ciami an si. Atu le atu Indian ralbawi General pawl an phan lengmang. Tamu in Kalemyo in Mandalay tiang lam cawhpiak an timh. Tam ngai an cawh cang. Security ca bik ah si dawh a si. Cun India caah Tuluk bantukin sipuazi market tha ngai a si ve. India thil tam ngai Kawlram ah a lut. Superpower a si kho te dingmi India nih a ka dirpi tiah aa ruah. Kawl cozah cu zer tuk ve kaw ram thum komh in a komh zia a thiam ngai hna. Hi nih hin Kawl cozah a lung a thawnter i a zei a poi lo chin lengmang. 

1.2.4. ASEAN Ram Hna: ASEAN ah a luh hnu in a hngal deuh fawn. Vawleicung komhnak bu ah kan i tel kho tiah an ruah. ASEAN nih an ruah ningin an hruai kho hna lo. Ram chungah buainak a um tik zongah zeipipa an i thlak kho lo. UN zong nih zeipipa an tuah kho lo. Kuzale a hei thlah tawn i Kawl General pawl nih lecture an pek hna i an kirter hna. Nihin tiang an tuah khawhmi a um lo. Khatlei in ASEAN meeting paoh ah an kai ve i vawleicung ramdang he tonnak caan tha an ngei lengmang.  ASEAN member an sinak nih hin tha a pek ngai hna. An ral a thatter hna. A hupphengtu ah an i hman. Sipuazi lei cun zeipipa a bawm kho lo. Cucaah atu an i zuam bikmi cu nitlaklei nih sipuazi an phihmi hi phoih khawhnak a phunphun in lam an kawl.

2. Kawl Cozah Ruahning (Policy):

A bikin miphunte caah tih a nung ngaimi cu “miphun pakhat, ram pakhat, biaknak pakhat” ti a si. Hi ruahning cu khuazeika cauk hmanh ah an langhter lo. Asinain Kawlram chungmi hna hi cozah pakhat, miphun pakhat, nunphung pakhat, holh pakhat, biaknak pakhat tangah a um khawh nakhnga lam tampi in an i zuam. Ruah setmat lo ahcun ramchungmi zong nih theih khawh a si lo. Cun Kawlram in a chuak cangmi hna zong nih mit in hmuh lo pinah nunnak in tuarnak a um lo caah hngalh ngaingai khawh a si lo. A ing, a tuarmi le mit in a hmu taktak mi nih fiang deuh in an hmuh khawh. Roman Empire chan lio zongah hi bantuk hi ruahnak policy hi a rak um balmi a si.

2.1. Biaknak pakhat (One Religion):  Biaknak kong hi a hmasa ah tial ka duh. Kawlram pumpi hi biaknak pakhat ah can dih an kan duh. Phungki pawl nih an ruah ahcun biaknak kal phung a si caah ruah thiam deuh a si. Asinain cozah nih kha rian kha aa hmaithlak tikah harnak le lungretheihnak tam tuk a chuak.. Phungki lawng si loin minung cawnpiaktu (puansen aa aih lomi) kha an thlah hna i Khrihfa thawngtha chimtu hna report a tuah tawntu hi mah hna hi an si bik. Laimi dirhmun in kan chim ahcun:

Karen Buddhist le Khrihfa karlak ah an tuah bantuk kha a si ve lai. Laimi ngakchia tampi an lut cang.

2.1.2. Thawngtha Chim Khawh Lonak:  Khrihfa Thawngtha chimnak hi an hmurka in cun a luat tuk ko an ti nain a taktak ahcun luat tein chim khawh a har ngai cang. Tuk le velhnak hmun a tam cang. A um ciami Khrihfa chungah zeimawzat luatnak a um nain Khrihfabu thar dirhnak le zum lotu hna sinah thawngtha chimnak cu a har hringhran ko. Lairam zongah Buddhist pura an sak luaimai cang.

Mah miphun sinak cio kha thanchoter i an sunsakmi nunphung tehna zong kilvenpiak ding a si.  Alan (flag) an tuah tikah State le Division vialte theihhngalhnak caah arfi 14 an rak cuanter.

Lungawi Thusimnak ih Huham Cahnak

By San No Thuan

America ah hin, November thla ih a zarh neta biknak tlawngkai nili ni hi rampi a cozah in lungawi thusim ni (thanksgiving day) tiah ni a khiah sak. Hi lungawi thusimnak ni ah zo pawl hnen ah lungawi thu kan sim ding ti hi thusuhnak tampi a um. Thu pahnih in tar langah ka duh. Zo pawl hnen ah lungawi thu kan sim ding? Lungawi thu ziangtin kan sim ding? Lungawi  thusim thiam cu thansonak a si zia pawl a tawi zawng in ngan ka duh.
 1. Zo pawl ih hnenah lungawi thu kan sim ding?
  1. A pakhatnak ih lungawi thu kan sim dingmi cu nitin te lam in hruaitu le thluasuah in petu Pathian hnen ah lungawithu kan sim ding. Kan nunnak ah Pathian ih thluasuah in pekmi pawl siar salnak caan a si.
    1. Na zalennak
    2. Na neihmi sum le saw
    3. Na fimnak le thiamnak
    4. Na damnak
    5. Na inn sungsang tvp….
  2. Kan tlun ih thil tha a tuahtu pawl parah lungawi thu sim ding kan si.
    1. Na nulepa
    2. Na rualpi
    3. Na unau, nupi, pasal
    4. A lo bawmtu pawl tvp…
2. Lungawi thu ziang tin kan sim ding?
Lungawi thu kan sim daan cu kan mai duhmi hnak in an mai duhmi le tulmi zawng sawn in sim sehla, an lungawi a awi sawn ding. Caan tampi ah, innsaangnu in a duhmi cu innsaang thilri tha le mawi te’n um ding. Siiti le fang khopkham te in um ding. A birthday ah thil thar laksawng pakhat khat leisak ding. “Ka lo duh” tivek men hi an nih ih an ruahmi le theihtheimi duhdawtnak a si lo. Tuluk tong in na sim rero nan, an nih ih theihmi ttong cu Japan ttong lawng a si thei men. Amai theih ding zawn in lungawi thu kan simthiam a tul.
3. Lungawi thusim thiam cu thansonak ih hram a si.  
  1. Lungawi thusim na thiam le bawm duhtu tam na nei sin ding. Lungawi thu na sim a si le na thinlung a nuam ding ih, midang khal an thinlung na nom ter sin a si. Thuthimnak ah, September 2008, Dallas khua ah ABC, USA in confernce an tuah ih ka va kai ve. Cu tawk ah thil mawi zet pakhat ka zir ngah. Second World War lai ah, Japan le American pawl an do awk ciamco ih, America ih ummi Japan pawl cu concentration camp ah American a cozah in a khum ih a hrem. Cui a hrem laifang ah mirang pastor hrek khat in an rak tuam hlawm ih an zoh tha zet. Cumi thu cu ABC,USA ih Asian Ministry lam kaitu Rev. Florence Li in mipi hmai ah lungawi thu a sim ih, a rak bawm dahtu mirang pawl kha laksawng peknak le sunloih upatnak a pek. Cumi lungawi thusimnak in a dang mirang pawl khal kha tulai fang ih a ra reromi refugee pawl bawm ding ah an thinlung a thangphawk ter a si. Curuangah lungawi thusim na thiam le na thangso sin ding.
  1. Lungawi thusim na thiam le khui tik hman ah na vaivuan lo ding. Kawltong in auhchi luat, “sinak hngilh aw” tiah kan timi khi lungawi thusim thiam lo tu pawl an si. Lungawi thu sim kan thiam lo tikah, a tui’ kan dinhmun cu kan mah te ih ding thei le si thei vek ah kan ruat aw ih, kan thinlung cu a hung hngal ih a puarthau. Midang bom khal kan tum nawn lo ih, midang hrangah le Pathian hrangah mi santlai lo ah kan cang dah ta. Cumi si lo ding in, ni tin thlawsuah kan donmi hi Pahtian ta a si ti thei in, Pathian par ah le, Pathian in cui’ thlawsuah pawl pe ding ih a hmanmi minung pawl parah lungawi thu kan sim ringring a tul. Cu tikah, hmailam ah ziangtin ka feh ding timi fiang te in kan thei ih, mi vaivuan ah kan cang lo ding.

Pathian Lung a Awitertu Nun Daan




Thuhmai hruai:

Tui sunah, kei ka nun mansan hi ziang a si? Pathian in ziang ruangah in sersiam si pei ti a thei lo ih a vak vaimi kan tam zet. New York feh ding a si nan, Washington lam ih a pan ciamco kan tam tuk lai. Bible ca in kan nun mansan cu ziang a si ti ziang tin in zirh?
Pathian lungawi  ter dingah ah sersiammi kan si.

·      Saam 14:2 - Minung lakah fimnak a neitu le Pathian a hawl ih a biatu an um maw? ti theih duh ah, Bawipa in minung pawl cu,Vancung ihsin a run zoh.
·      Efe. 5:10 - Bawipa ih lungawinak kha hawl uh.

Pathian hi ziang kan tuah le a lungawi, hnisuamso mithmai thawn a um? Noah ih nunnak in Pathian a lungawi tertu nun cu ziang a si ti kan zir thei.

1. A mah kan duhdawt bik tikah Pathian a lungawi.

·      Seem 6:8 Sikhalsehla Noah parah cun Bawipa cu a lung a awi.
·      Seem 6:9-10 Noah ih faale pawl cu hi pawl hi an si: fapa pathum a nei ih Shem, Ham le Jafet an si. Noah cu mi á¹­hazet a si ih acuih san ahcun amah pakhat lawnglawng Pathian ih lungkimmi a si. Pathian thawn a umtlangmi a si.

Pathian in Noah par ih a lungawinak cu Pathian thawn pawlkom (fellowship/walk with God) aw ringringtu, feh tlaangtu a si a ti. Thu maksak zet a simi cu a saangbik Pathian in kan mah thawn pawlkomawk tlaang a duh timi hi a si. Jesuh in curuangah in zirhmi cu Pathian kha duhdawt ve ding hi a thupi bik tiah in sim.

·      Matt. 22:37 Jesuh in, “Bawipa na Pathian cu na thinlung zate, na nunnak zate le na ruahnak zate in na duhdawt pei.”

Kan nun man san cu Pathian hi midang le thil dang hnak in duh bik ding in fial. Pathian kan duhdawt timi cu thil dang le midang hnak in amah thawn pawlkom awtu le nung tlaangtu kan sinak khi a si.

2. Amah kan rinsan tikah Pathian a lung a awi.

·      Heb. 11:7 Noah kha hmailam thu-ah Pathian in ralrinnak a pekmi a theih theinak cu a zumnak ruangah a si. Pathian thu a ngai ih long a tuah ih cuih long sungah amah le a innsaang himte in an luat. Curuangah leilung cu hnonnak a tong ih Noah cu a zumnak ruangah dingnak Pathian hnen ihsin a co.
·      Seem. 7:2 Saram thiang ei á¹­ha phunkim in phunkhat ah khuah sarih ciar keng aw; a sinain a thiang lo ramsa cu phunkhat ah a nu le a pa khuah khat ciar lawng la aw.
·      Seem. 7:5 Cule Bawipa ih thupekmi vek cekci in Noah cun a tuah á¹­heh. Noah cu tipi thuanthum thawn peng zaza in a hlatnak ah a um. Asinan, Pathian lawng sak aw a ti tikah, Pathian a rinsan ih, a sak mei.

2.1. Pathian rinsan timi cu?

Pathian cu ka hrangah thil thabik remruat tu a si ti zum khi a si. Ziangah tile a ruahnak cu kan ruahnak hnak in a sang sawn. 
·      Is. 55:9       Van tla khi leilung hnakih a saang bangtuk in Ka ruahnak le ka lamzin cu nan ruahnak le nan lamzin hnakin a sang sawn a si.

Midang ih mithmai hnak in Pathian ih mithmai zoh ih Amai thu lawng ngai khi a si.
·      John 14:15 Jesuh in, “Keimah in duhdawt ahcun ka thukham pawl nan thlun ding.
·      John 15:12 Ka thukham cu hihi a si: Keimah ih ka lo duhdawt vek hin nannih khal pakhat le pakhat duhdaw aw ve uh!

Pahtian kan rinsan timi cu ziangkim Pathian in ka hrangah a tha bik a remruat ti ring in, Amai mithmai lawng zoh in a duhmi lawng tuah khi a si.

3. Lungawi thusim kan thiam tikah Pathian a lungawi.

Seem. 8:20  Cule Noah cun Bawipa ih hrangah biaká¹­heng a don ih a thiangmi ramsa le vate tla phunkhat in pakhat ciar a lak ih meisa biaká¹­heng parah Pathian hrangah mei-ur thawinak a pek.

·      Noah cun Moriah tlaang par ah a lawng a taan tikah, a leng ah a suak ih Pathian a thangthat a si.

·      Pathian cu lungawi thiammi kan si ding hi a duh bik.

·      Miphar pahra pawl lak ah pakhat lawng a ra kir sal tikah, Jesuh in a dang pakua pawl teh tiah a rak sut (Luke 17:12f).

4. Ziang ruangah lungawi thusim thiamtu si ter in duh si pei?

·      Na thinharnak pawl a lo dam ter ding. Kan riahsiatnak cu lungawi thusim kan thiam lo ruangah, a siatnak lawnglawng kan zoh ih buainak a suak. Pathian ih thlawsuah siar aw la, na tonmi harsatnak cu sim tlak lo te a si ding.

·      Na zumnak a lo fek ter sin ding. Ziangah tile Pathian in lam a lo hruai daan a lo cing mang ter ding.

Thunetnak

Pathian in kan nunnak hi leitlun ih a sersaimnak san cu Pathian lungawi tertu si ding ah a si. Himi na theih a si ahcun, “ziangtin ka nunnak ah nomnak ka ngah thei pei?” timi ihsin, “ziangtin ka nunnak ihsin Pathian in lungawinak a ngah thei pei?” timi hi na sut aw sawn ding. Paul cun, kan tumtahmi cu Bawipa lungawi ter ding hi a si a ti.

·      2Cor. 5:9 - Ziangkhal sisehla leilung kan inn ih kan um ah siseh, khitawk kan inn ih kan um ah siseh, ziang hmuahhmuah hnakin amah kan lungawiter ding kha a thupi bik a si.

Ziang vek nun ah Pathian a lungawi?
1.        Pathian kan duhdawtbik tikah a lungawi. Duhdawtbik timi sullam cu Pathian thawn kan pawlkom aw ih kan fehtlaang ringring ih, a lungawinak kan hawl khi a si.
2.        Pathian kan rinsanbik tikah a lungawi. Pathian rinsanbik timi cu ka hrangah Pathian in a tha bik khua a khaang ringring ti thei ih, a mithmai lawng zoh khi a si.
3.        Lungawi thusim kan thiam tikah a lungawi. Lungawi thusim thiam ding ziang ah in duh sak? Lungawi thusim thiammi lungput cu:
a.     Asiatnak hnak in a thatnak zoh in lungawi thu kan sim tikah, kan lungawi a awi. Thinhennak cu a sia lam lawnglawng kan zoh theu ruangah a si.
b.     Pathian ih rinsan ngam sinnak in neih ter.

For Everything, There Is A Season


 1Pet. 1:1 ¶ Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, ¶ To the exiles of the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
1Pet. 1:2 who have been chosen and destined by God the Father and sanctified by the Spirit to be obedient to Jesus Christ and to be sprinkled with his blood: ¶ May grace and peace be yours in abundance.
1. Suffering and death gives us wisdom
There was a woman who said, “Having to face the fact that my husband was dying made us value our love for each other with an intensity and intimacy we had not known before. Every day became a gift to experience together. No longer did we take life or our relationship for granted.”
Psa. 90:12          So teach us to count our days that we may gain a wise heart.
2. For everything, there is a season
For everything, there is a season. Everything is subject to change. There is winter, spring, autumn, and summer in US. We cannot have winter all the times and summer as well.  When we attach so much to these impermanent worldly things, we suffer when they are about to change. We are so thankful for our mother who has lived through out so many seasons of life. As we have been living together with our parents here in this world, it is very painful to depart each other.
Eccl. 3:1,2  ¶ For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die . . ..
 3. Physical death is the beginning of eternal life
John 11:25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me, even though they die, will live . . .." 
Dr. Steven Hre Kio, the ex-chief consultant of UBS, says that when his mother died, he was mad at God. Thus, he stopped going to church. One day, at the middle of the night, all his room was brighten by a certain light and the voice said to him, “Your mother is not dead but is alive more than before.” From that day, he was committed to serve God in the ministry.
Why does this physical death is the beginning of eternal life? It is because: (1Pet 1:2)
1.     God has chosen, based not on merit, quality, and smartness, but solely based on His grace and love.
2.     Your sins are forgiven because of Christ’s merit done for you till the end of his life on the cross.
3.     The sanctification of the Holy Spirit is constant and going on.
If you believe in God’s love and forgiveness on your sins, a new life begins in you that will lead you to the power to overcome death. Death will be a happy birthday for you.
Though we say goodbye to her here in this world, in heaven, they will say good morning to her.
Conclusion:
1.     Suffering and bereavement bring us wisdom to be humble, to love, to share, and not to take God’s blessings of good health for granted. Every second is a new gift to us.
2.     Nothing is permanent. For everything, there is a season. Don’t be attached yourself too much on the impermanent things but find peace in the Words of God.
3.     Physical death is the beginning (birthday) of eternal life. Why? Because:
a.     God has chosen you to be his own child based on His grace and love.
b.     God reveals himself in Christ and proclaims his forgiveness to us        because of his love and grace but not on our merits. 
c.     The Holy Spirit is with you and guide you till you come your heavenly home.
Therefore, if you believe this good news, this physical death for believers cannot be a hopeless end. Knowing that death as the beginning of the eternal life will give you a new hope and peace of mind.

Remark: This is the message that I have preached at the condolence service for the loss of the beloved mother of Ko Richard, and Naw Teresa at U Michael's house in America on 11/8/2008.
