UPATE KUATE AHI UA?
“Kei na upa hihpih uh leh Khris thuaknate theihpihpa, leh thupina hihlat a hong om diing chiamkholpa’n, na lak ua om upate ka hanthawn hi:
Na lak ua om Pasian’ belamte ching un, enkaitute bang a sepsak in, phutluih ziak hilou in himahleh utkawm tak in, punna thanghuai deih ziak hilou in himahleh kithalawptak in” (1 Pet. 5:1-2). Hiai Lai Siangthou in Upate pen Pasian’ belamte CHINGTU, VAKTU, KEMTU leh ENKAITU hi dia Pasian in a seh mite ahi uh chih a hon hilh hi (Nas. 20:28; Eph. 4:11 te leng en in).
“Vaihawmsiam upate pen a lehnih a pahtawi tuak a seh hi uhen la, thu leh thugin a semgimte hikhol diak uhen” (1 Tim. 5:17). Hiai a kipan in Upate pen vaihawmtu leng hi uh ahihdan teltak in i muthei hi. Pasian’ saptuam a Khris’ thupiak bangbang a vaihawmtute ahi uhi. Vaihawmtu ahih ban uah, “thu leh thugin a semgimtu” ahi uhi. Huaibel thugentute ahihkeileh sinsaktute leh thugin kembittute leng ahi uhi.
- TUPNA BANG AHIA?
Tupna kichi pen utna, sunmang (daydream), kilawphuai sak zualna, ahihkeileh duhthusam chih ningniangte ahikei. Ahihhang in TUPNA kichi bel hiai a nuai a bineu thumte zang in genchian leng i chi hi:
- TUNMUN (Goal) diing kichiantak a theihtelna
- Huai tunmun ZOTNA LAMPI kichiantak a theihtelna leh
- Huai lampi zui a PANTEITEINA
Uthuai i sak zualte hiam, i duhthusam hiamte pen a nop sung kihihngap lel a, a haksa hong tun chiang in kitawpsan pah zel hi. Tupna i neih chiang in bel a nuam a haksa ah kuhkaltak in hon pangsak a, kipahna hong om diing muhkholhnate ziak in phatuamngai tak in hon pang sak tuntun hi.
Huaiziak in hiai a tung a bilian nihte (I & II) zang a hilhchetna i piakte a kipan in “Upa diing a tupna dik” tuh tomchik a gen in “Upate dinmun theihtelna kichiantak nei a, huai dinmun lunggulhna toh tung teitei dia kuhkal tak a panteiteina ahi”.
- TUPNA DIK KHENKHATTE
Upa hi diing a tupna dik toh kisai in gen theihdan tuamtuam hunkhop a omkha diing. Himahleh tuate lak a poimoh tungtuan hia I theihte enkhawm lehang uthuai I sa.
LUNGGULHNA
“Hiai tuh thugen muanhuai ahi. Kuapeuh in ENKAITU (bishop) dinmun a lunggulh (desire) leh nnahoih sep a lunggulh hi…” (1 Tim. 3:1). Hiai ah “Lunggulh” kichi thumal nihvei I mu hi. Mangkang pau ah “desire” ahi a, eipau a kilehnate ah “Ut” chi in kilet hi. Ut kichi in leng genkha thou mahleh “Lunggulh” kichi thumal in a gennop pen kawkkha diak hi. Huaiziak in “Lunggulh” chih thumal I zang ut chitchiat hi. A tung a “Lunggulhna” thumal nih I muhte genna diing in Greek thumal tuamtuak nih ana kizang hi.
Khatna ah, “Enkaitu dinmun lunggulh” kichihna mun ah OREGETAI a kizang hi. Hiai in a gennop tak bel mihing lungtang sung a kipan a hong suakkhia lunggulhna, deih tuntunna genna ahi. Pawlam a kipan thuzohnate ziak a hong kipan hilou in, mahni sunggil a kipan a deihna, lunggulhna ahi. Huai upa dinmun pen mite’n, “Nang kaan a chin omlou hiveh aw, nang upa in hong pang mai oh” chi a pawlam a pan sawlluihna ziak hiam, zolna ziak hiam hilou a, amah lungtang sung a kipan a kipapiakna (voluntary) a gennuam hi. Hiai pomdan mah Sawltakpi Peter in a laikhak ah upate tungtang a genna ah, “Phutluih ziak hilou in himahleh utkawm tak in” (1 Pet. 5:2) chi in a na gen hi.
Nihna ah, “Nnahoih sep a lunggulh hi” kichihna mun ah EPITHUMEI a kizang nawn hi. Hiai thumal pen Strong in hichi bang in ana hilhchian hi –
- Banghiam khat a lungsim nga, ahihke’h banghiam khat lam a lungsim kuansak (to set the heart upon)
- Deih tuntunna, hoihsak luat ziak a deihna (long for)
- Enna, thikthuse khop a deihgohna (covet, desire)
- Etlah tuntun petmahna (lust after)
Hiai EPITHUMEI thumal pen a masa a I gen OREGETAI toh na kilamdang hi. Sunglam a kipan hong suakkhia lunggulhna pen sang in pawlam a thilhoih, deihhuai, etlahhuai a om ziak a lunggulhna pen a genzaw hi. Ahihleh UPA DINMUN lunggulhna diing a pawlam a etlahhuaina hon hiiptu, leh thikthuse khop a hon deihgohsak theitu bang hi diing ahia?
Upate nnasep diing huai “NNAHOIH” a muh ziak a huai nnasepna enlah tuntun a huailam a lungsim kuansakna ahi.
- Huai upate nnasep diing nnahoih pen hoihsalua a amah seplouh dia pammaih sa tuntun,
- Huai nnahoih pen ama’n semkhalou a midang in a sep maimah diing uh pammaih tuntun sa a thikthuse khop a lunggulh.
- Huai nnahoih sepna pen enlah (numei-pasal ki-etlahna bang khop hial a enlah) tuntun.
Bangziak a hiai Upa dinmun lunggulhna toh kisai genna dia OREGETAI leh EPITHUMEI hong kizang sese hiam? A lunggulh huai mahmah nnahoih sepna pen nuamtak leh tawldamtak a sepna hi gigelou hi. Sawltakpi Paul in Pasian’ nnasepna “nnahoih sep” toh kisai hichi bang in ana gen hi –
“Kris nnasemte ahi u hia? (mi hai bangin genta leng) ka hi sem; sep gimna bang ah thupi sem in, suangkulh a tanna ah bang thupi sem in, vuakna ah bang a-kan-a-val in, sihna ah bang tamveipi. Judate lak ah vuakna khatvei a sawmli chinglou ngavei ka tuak a; Thumvei chiang a khet in ka om a, khatvei suang a den in ka om a, thumvei long siatna ka tuak a, jan khat leh ni khat tuipi ah taihmang in ka om a, Khualzinna ah tam veipi, luite lak a lauhuai, suammite lak a lauhuai, ka chipihte lak a lauhuai, Jentelte lak a lauhuai, khopi a lauhuai, gamdai a lauhuai, tuipi a lauhuai, unau takloute lak a lauhuai; Septawlna leh sepgimna, ihmutmohna ah tamveipi, gilkial leh dangtakna ah, anngawlna ah tamveipi, khosik leh vuaktang a omna ah bang. Huan, hiaite ban a kigen lou saptuam tengteng ka ngaihtuahna ni teng a hondelh gige leng a om hi” (2 Kor. 11:23-28).
Tua zah dong a kipumpiak kuul ahihman in hiai nnasep seem diing a mahni sung a kipan mahmah a kimanna (voluntary) leh kingapna hong suakkhia “lunggulhna” (OREGETAI) poimoh hi. Huai sunglam a pan lunggulhna pen hatsaktu diing in pawlam a pan a kaitu/hiptu huai nnahoih sepna pen “lunggulhna” (EPITHUMEI) a poimoh mahmah hi.
HUCHITEL A ETLAH HUAI “NNAHOIH” BANG HITEL AHIA?
Sawltakpi Paul in huai nnahoih tuh “Toupa’ nna” ahihdan a gen hi. “Huaiziak in ka unau ittakte aw, kiptak in, hihlin vuallouh in, Toupa’ nnasep a kidim in om gige un, na nnasep uh Toupa ah a thawn ngeikei chih theikawm in” (1 Kor. 15:58).
Hiai Toupa’ nnasep bel Pa Pasian apan hong kipan ahihdan Jesu Khris in a kam ngei in gen hi. “Kei hon sawlpa’ deihdan hih leh A nnasep zoh diing tuh ka an ahi” (Jn. 4:34). Pa Pasian apan hong kipankhia huai nnasep Jesu Khris in leitung a A hong sepkhiakte Matthai in sehthum in ana khen hi. “Huan Jesu’n Galili gam teng a tawnsuak a, a synagogte uah a SINSAK (teaching) a, lalgam tanchin hoih a PHUANGZAK (preaching) a, mipite lak a natna chiteng a nate a HIHDAM (healing) zel hi” (Matt. 4:23). Huaiziak in Jesu’n leitung a a hong pailai a A nnasep bel SINSAKNA PIAK (Tundingna), TANCHIN HOIH PHUANZAKNA leh HIHDAMNA/PANPIHNA PIAKNA chihte ahi uhi.
THUPIAK THUPI
Jesu Khris in a hong sih a, vui a om a, A thohnawn khittak in nungzuite kiang ah a sepsuah ngeingei diing un Thupiak Thupi chi a chiamteh a om thupiak a peta hi. “Huaiziak in kuan unla, namchih a kipan NUNGZUITE BAWL unla… Thu kon piak tengteng zui diing in SINSAK un…” (Matt. 28:19-20). “Huan Aman a kiang uah, Khovel teng ah kuankhia unla, thilsiam teng kiang ah tanchin hoih hilh un. A gingta a baptisma tang hotdam in a om diing a, a gingtalou tuh siamlouh tang in a om diing. A gingtate tuh … Damloute’ tung ah a khut uh a nga diing ua, HIHDAM in a om diing uh” (Mk. 16:15-18). Leitung a a damlai a A septe mah huaibel – “Tanchin hoih puanzakna, Sinsakna (tundingna) leh Damloute hihdamna (panpihna nnasep) te mah semsuah diing in A nungzuite a hon ngiat hi. Huaiziak in tu khristian hun a “Toupa’ nnasep” bel hiai a tung a i gen thupi thumte mah ahi uhi.
Hiai Toupa’ nnasep sepsuahna diing in upate dinmun koih a ana om ahihdan I muthei hi. “Huan Amah mah in a khente sawltakpite hi diing in, a khente Tanchin Hoih gen diing in, a khente zawlneite, a khente pastorate leh sinsaktute diing in a pia hi. Huai tuh misiangthoute thopna diing, nnasepna (Toupa’ nnasep) sepna diing leh Khris pumpi lamtouhna diing in” (Eph. 4:11-12)
Huaiziak in hiai nnahoih – salsuahna nna, mangthangte hotdamna nna, panpih ngaite panpihna nna, puk diingte tundingna nna, lei leh vaan siamtu Khris buchinna ngahna, kitundingna leh kikepbitna nna sang a thupizaw hiai leitung ah nnasep omlou hi. Huaiziak in sawltakpi Paul in, “Toupa nnasep ah kidim gige in om un” ana chi hi (1 Kor. 15:58). Hiai nnahoih pen lunggulh tuntunna ziak a upa dinmun lunggulhna tuh tupna dik ahi.
- KITHALAWPNA
“Na lak ua om Pasian’ belam omte ching un, enkaitute bang a sepsak in, phutluih ziak hilou in himahleh utkawm tak in, punna thanghuai deih ziak hilou in himahleh kithalawptak in, na etkol diing ua piak a omte tung a kilalsaklou in, himahleh belamte etton dia kibawlzaw in” (1 Pet. 5:2-3). Phutluih ziak hilou a mahni a suak kithalawpna toh upa hihna dinmun lunggulhna hiai ah a gen hi. Banghiam punna, metna khattou muhna diing lametna hilou in KITHALAWPTAK a nnasepna a gen hi. Huaiziak in nnahoih sem diing a kithalawptak a mahni leh mahni kipiak khiakna (voluntary) bel tupna dik khat hinawn hi.
- AWLMOHNA/LIMSAKNA
“Huaiziak in Pasian’ saptuam, Amah sisan a a leite ching diing in NOUMAU mahmah leh Kha Siangthou in enkai dia a hon seh belamte LIMSAK un” (Nas. 20:28). Hiai ah Ephesa saptuam upate’n a khawkngaih mahmah diing ua Paul in a thuhilhna bel LIMSAK DIING chih ahi. Mangkang pau ah, “take heed to yourselves and to all the flock…” a chi hi. Amasapen a “amau mahmah” KI-AWLMOH diing. A nihna ah a etkol diing ua piak a om Pasian’ belamte AWLMOH diing in a thuhilh hi.
Vaanleng a I lenkhiak dek chiang in vaanleng a panpihtuten hon thumopte uh lak a poimoh mahmah khat tuh “Oxygen mask a hong kikhaikhiak ngeingei leh nang nak (nose) ah bulh masa inla huaizoh chiang in midangte panpih in” a chi uhi. Mahni ki-awlmoh masakna tuh midangte awlmoh theihna dia poimoh masa ahihdan I muthei hi. Huaiziak in Paul in, “Ginna ah na omna uhiam chih noumau ki-enchian chiat un” (2 Kor. 13:5) a chi hi.
Saptuam upate a diing in mahni ki-awlmohna tan ah tawplou in Pasian’ belamte awlmohna poimoh nawn leuleu hi. Bang ziak a awlmoh ngai uh ahia? Sawltakpi Paul mah in a dawnna hichibang in hon gen suaksuk hi: “Ka pai nung in ngehangte na lak uah a hong lut diing a, belamte a hawikei diing uh chih ka thei hi. Noumau lak mah a kipan nungzuite amau lam a kaimang diing in thutuam gen na hong om diing uh” (Nas. 20:29-30). Belamte awlmoh lou kiloh belampu in bel a belamte a mangthang sak vek diing hi (John 10:11-15). Huaiziak in AWLMOHNA tuh Saptuam upa hihna diing a tupna dik khat hinawn hi.
- SEPSAKNA/NNASEPNA
“Na lak ua om Pasian’ belam omte ching un, enkaitute bang a sepsak in, phutluih ziak hilou in himahleh utkawm tak in, punna thanghuai deih ziak hilou in himahleh kithalawptak in, na etkol diing ua piak a omte tung a kilalsaklou in, himahleh belamte etton dia kibawlzaw in” (1 Pet. 5:2-3).
Toupa’ lalgam a piitu hihna tuh sepsakna (servanthood) ahi. Zebedai’ ji in a tapa nihte adia Jesu kiang a thupina a ngetsak lai in Jesu’n hichibang in a dawng hi: “… Jentelte’ vaihawmte tuh a tung uah a lal mahmah ua, a mi liante un a tung uah thu a nei mahmah lai uh chih leng na thei uh. Himahleh nou lak ah zaw huchi a hikei diing; kuapeuh na lak ua mi lian hih ut tuh na nnasem un a omzaw ding ahi; kuapeuh na lak ua masapen hih ut tuh na nnasem un a omlai ding ahi; Mihing Tapa nnasepsak a om diing in a hong paikei a, nnasem diing leh mi tampi tatna dia a hin pe ding a hongpai ahi zaw, a chi a” (Matt. 20:25-28).
Upa dinmun bel nnasepna dinmun ahi a, nnasep a mite piitu, etton diing a piituhihna ahi. Jesu’n sepsakna hinkhua ana zat tampite lak ah tallang mahmah khat Johan 13:3-17 kikal ah I muthei hi. Paikan ankuang a umzoh phet un a dingkhia a kinulna puan a teng a, kuang ah tui a sung a, nungzuite khe a ban in a silsak hi. “Nou Sinsakpa leh Toupa n’on chi ua, na chi dik uhi, Ka hi ngei tak ahi. Kei Toupa leh Sinsakpa’n na khe uh ka sil leh nou leng na khe uh na kisilsak diing uh ahi. Na tung ua ka hih bang in nou leng na hih samna diing un, hih diing dan hon hilh Ka hi ngal a. Chihtaktak in, chihtaktak in K’on hilh ahi, Sikha a pu sang in a thupi zawkei; sawltak leng a sawlpa sang in a thupizaw samkei hi. Huai thilte na theih ua, na hih uleh hampha na hi uh” (t.13-17). Huaiziak in nnasemtu diing a lungtang a kimintak a kipiakkhiakna tuh Upa hihna diing a tupna dik ahi nawn hi.
