I) Jesuh te hnak thu ngaihsunurkul phunthum. (Luka 2:18)

Jesuh Khrih suahkehhnak thu heh ngaihsunurkul phunthum um i.  

1) Pathian heh minung cang:

Kin pon ah, “Ngaihsunurkul” kin tide fangin aicankul thu, khuaruah harthai thu, minungte linghnak hruang songai cang thil deuhlo hnak thu titebang pawl heh ngaihsunurkul thu ti de ising. Kin Bawipa Jesuh Khrih laivum ah te hnak thu kin rel tlang de hnak le Jesuh te hnak sunloih tlang in puai kin bawn tlang de hnak heh ponfang dang deuh in rel ilesingkhaw, “kin sanghnak thupon” heh laivum minungte hmai ah fiah ruai / lar ruai thawn kin bang i.

• Christmas thu heh ruat sal ilesingkhaw “Tawngkho (incarnation) thu” i.
• Pathian heh minung canghnak thu i.

Ciamanin, tawngkho (incarnation) thu tu minung dan ah ngaihsunurkul thu i. Ciami ngaihsunurkul thu ling fiang lesikhaw Christmas thu ling fiang ising.

Pathian heh minung cang (Hebrew 2:17): Tawngkho thu (or) Pathian heh minung ah cang ti heh sang tuh in harsa ngai thu pakhat i. Zaiman tifangin Pathian in Moses hnenah, “kaimah siarlo pathian dang bia mah ih, milin bia mahih” ti i (Exo. 20:3, 5). Thisan le taksa nai minung, angthai, rawthai, thinhnawmthai, lauthai, …, minung ihnak ah 100 % naitu lettama – လက်သမား – fapa Jesuh heh Pathian tiin sang ai bia tuh heh thil nauta ilo ai thil bai ilo i. Jesuh laivum ah a nunglai ah khai minung tam sawn in sang tlanglo i. Jesuh thuanthu ngaan tamber hnak laibute (Matthai, Marka, Luka, le John) song ah ngaihven deuh ilesingkhaw, Jesuh in amah heh, “Pathian fapa ing (Pathian ing)” tiin, a ti dun manin buaihnak tlang i. Jesuh rek tuh in a mawh a si tlang (စွဲချက်တင်) hnak ah khai, “Jesuh in Pathian hlat hnak Messiah / Pathian Fa ing ing tiin a ti dun hnak thu” heh lang i (Matthai 26:64; Luka 22:70).  Ikhalselai, laivum minungte sualngaithiam hnak semkhim a co thil tuh hnak hrangah minung ihnak 100 % naitu Jesuh Khrih heh ngaihsunurkul kin Pathian i. Cetihai Pathian ihnak heh minung ihnak ah a cang kul bel hnak ngaihsunurkul thu heh Hebrew lai ngaantu in he tihin ngaan i.

“Ciatihin, Naupangte, ti ai a kohnak a minungte tu thi le sa naimi minung imanin Jesuh khai anite bangin thi le sa nai ah cang ai minung ihnak thawn nung ve i. Hetih ai a bawn fangin a tumtekhnak tu amah a thihhnak in thihhnak vumah thu a naitu Satan heh siatsuah ai,

Laivum minungte sual ngaithiamhnak semkhim co thil tuh hnak hrangah, amah Pathian in, a ihnak huham naitu Jesuh khrih hmangin minung ihnak ah cang i (Kolose 1:15, 19).

2) A suah nia linglo – Herod Vs Quirinius

Laivum ah thil thupi canghnakte le mi-thupi, mi-ropite thu heh pai tuhlo in, hai thil tuhlo in ngaan khum de i. Bible hlun thuanthu hliakhlaihhnak laibu [1] songah Jesuh te hlan, kum 2000 zolo ai thil canghnak te heh a kumte a cekci i deuhlo hman in rin a nongber kumkhat kumhnih dung thu heh Bible thiamte le thuanthu zirte in ling ben tlang vek i. Ikhalselai, Christmas – Jesuh te hnak – thu heh ngaihsunurkul in a kum khai ling ben tlang lo i. Kin Bible songah khai fiah io in ngaan hnak um cuanglo i. Jesuh suah kum ling thillo hnak thu Bible thiam te in a hnia ai bangin ngaan vek i.

i) Herod Judea uktu BC 37- 4 AD (Matthai 2:1).

Matthai laibu ah Jesuh heh Herod Judea ram kumpibawi per tengah Jesuh te i, tiin ngaan i (Matthai 2:1). Herod in Judea ram heh BC 37 in uk thok ai BC 4 tian uk i. [2] Herod heh AD 4 ah thi ti fawn i.[3] Matthai ngaan hnak songah Jesuh heh BC 4 hlan ah te kul ngio bangin um i.

ii) Quirinius, Syria ram ukthok AD 6-7 (Luka 2:1).

Luka ngaan hnak songah sik leh thio ilesingkhaw, Jesuh heh Quirinius in Syria uk teng ah te tiin um leh thio i. Quirinius in Syria ram heh caan com neu ian uk ai BC 6-7 tian uk, tiin um i.[4] Luka 2:1 ngaan hnak sik ilesingkhaw Jesuh heh BC 6-7 ah te, tiin ruat thil i. Ikhalselai Matthai ngaan hnak thawn sik kom fangin bang dun thil nawnlo i. A cungai Mathai laibu le Luka laibu kopin hliakhlaih ai Jesuh suah kum ling thillo hnak thute heh Bible thiamte ngaan hnak ai siar hnak i.

Ngaihsunurkul Jesuh suahcam heh laivum thuanthu zirte in khai a suah kumtal rin ling fiah benlo i. A cungah kin ngaanzo bangin, Bible songai Matthai le Luka ngaan hnakte sik kom in, Herod le Quirinius ukhnak kumte thawn sikkop dun fangin Jesuh suah cam heh bang dun thillo i.[5] Bible thuahthu zirtu zaimawzah in BC 4 Jesuh te i, ti i, Ikhalselai, BC 6-7 dung sawn ah te i tiin ngaantu khai um thotho ve pah i. Ciaheh, kin Bawipa Jesuh Khrih te hnak ngaihsunurkul thu pakhat i.

3) Thi khalselai nungsal / thosal (1 Korin 1:18-25)

“Jesuh heh ngaihsunurkul i” ti hnak thu rel teng i manin, Jesuh te hnak thu ilo khalselai, ngaihsunurkul a thih hnak thu le a thosal hnak thu bet in ruat tlang nga sing.  Minung thizo hnak nung lehsal ti heh thil cang thillo hnak ngaihsunurkul phun khat i. Kin naupang lai ah i pa in mithi nungsal thu kin rel awng i. Chawngkhuah, Kalaymyo, ai umtu i pa unau songkhat thizo hnak nungsal awng ti i. Laivum ah minung thi ai nungsal ti heh pakhat pakhih ngawn um thai men i, ikhalselai cebang ai mithi nungsal heh umlo tluk i ai, laivum minung dan khai ilo i. Ikhalselai, kin Bawipa Jesuh khrih tu thi i, ikhalselai nung sal rori i. Kin Bawipa Jesuh Khrih thi ai nungsal hnak thu a lingtu, Bible song ai ngaan khum hnak songah, Jesuh nungsal a hmutu / a ling fiangtu minung 500 zolo um ti i (1 Korin 15:6). Jesuh thosal / nungsal hnak thu heh ngaihsunurkul thu pakhat i ai, sang tuh khai har ngai i. A ling thiamlo te hrang ah tu thil cangthilhnak ilo manin mithi thosal thu sang heh voi thu i.

Thinglamteh vumah Khrih thihhnak thu heh a pairal cuahcotute ca ahcen voithu menma i; ikhalselai nun o lai betbo mite kin ca ahcen Pathian ai hathnak hmual i. Lai Thianghlim in, “Mifimte ai fimhnak tu siatsuah tuhai, mithiamte thiamhnak tu hnawl tuh ing,” ti i.Ciamanin mifimte akonah um tlang i? Mithiamte akonah um tlang i? Laivum thu el thiam pawl a konteng ah um i? Laivum ai fimhnak heh voithu i, ti khiah Pathian in larruai zo ilo im?

Minung in amah ai fimhnak in Pathian ling thil lohnak tuhin amah Pathian in a fimhnak in bawn awng cia zo i. Ikhalselai i phuanghnak anite ai “Voithu,” tihnak Thuthangpha heh hmang in a sangtute nun o tuhin Pathian ai bawnhnak i. Judah mite in a dik le dik lo ling thil tuhin ngaihsunurkul mak ngaingai hmu nuam tlang i; Greek mite incen fimhnak sawn in si tlang i. Ikhalselai kin tu thinglamteh ai khenmi Khrih phuang tlang ai cia thu tu Judah mite caah bahhnak i ai Greek mite ca ahcen voithu i. Ikhalselai Pathian ai ko cia mite ca ahcen Judah mi ituseh Gentile mite ituseh, ciatih ai kin phuanghnak tu Khrih i ai Khrih tu Pathian hathnak le Pathian fimhnak i. Zaimantifangin Pathian voihnak tu minung ai fimhnak tahin fim sawn i; cen Pathian ai ṭawnṭaihnak tu minung hathnak tahin hat sawn i (1 Korin 1:18-25).

Pathian ai Dan ah sual ngaithiam tuhhnak hrang ah thisan luang kul i, cia heh Jesuh in a nunhnak liam thihhnak in ciami sual ngaithiamhnak heh bawn i. Ikhawlselai, Pathian ihnak in tho leh ai cetihin, a sangtu hmuahhmuah nunhnak co tlang thil tuh hnak hrang ah nung lehsal ai tho i. Minung khuaruah ah mithi thosal ti heh cang thil hnak ilo i, Ikhalselai, Jesuh Khrih Rauhla thawm in ling hnak a co tute (1 Korin 2:10-12) caah Pathian thilti benhnak ngaihsunurkul i, tiin sang tlang ising.

II) Prophette rel cia khiah khim (Luka 2:20)

“Hmailam thu rel cia” ti heh a tam sawn ah thu-zara (သာမန်ဖြစ်စဉ်) ilo ai, mi zongzong in khai rel delo i. Hmailam cang tuhhnak thu rel hmuahhmuah khai dikcang siolo ai, sang sio tuh hnak khai ilo i. Tunlai san ah hmailam thu reltu heh um fuatfo de i. Tunlai san ah hmailam thu a reltute thu heh ngaihvek in ruat sak ilesing khaw;

Cebang hmailam thu rel thaitu heh Bible siar in, Bible thu dikcang neu in zir tuh heh zuamlo hnak manin i thai tuh i. Rauhla siava ai naperhnak, zawl tuar hnak khai i thai i. Rauhla miio bangin hmailam thu rel cia hnak thute ngawn a tam sawn ah dikcang awnglo i.

Kin Bawipa Jesuh Khrih laivuam ah te tuhhnak thu heh a liamciam kum tampi ah Pathian mihmante in rel ciahnak thu i ai, kin Bible songah hmun tamnawn ah siar thil in um i. Kin Bawipa Jesuh Khrih a te tuhlai hnak thu thawn Bible songai rel cia hnak thu tlawm lai sik nga sing.

1) Moses in rel cia hnak khim (Deu 18:15, 17)

Bawipa ning Pathian in ningmah unau songin kaimah bang prophet ningmah ca suakruai tuhai ciami thu heh ngai tu sawn ih. Ciamanin Bawipa in i hnenah, ‘Thildik ngai i ngen tlang i. Amahte lakin nangmah ang prophet suakruai tuh ing. Ciami prophet tu a pong tuhhnak rel tuhai i thupehnak hmuahhmuah heh mizapui hnenah rel tuh i.

2) David hnen ah rel cia hnak khim (2 Sameul 7:16)

“Tesinfa nai tuh betbo ai na ukhnak tu a kumzangza in khoruai tuh ing. Na kumpibawi ukhnak tu bo thil tuh lo i,’  tiin rel tu,”  tiin ti i (2 Samuel 7:16).

Prophette in Pathian in relhnak(or) phuang ruai hnak thu, kin Bawipa Jesuh Bethlehem khua ah te tuh hnak thu heh a cungai kin ngaanzo hnak bangin a liamcia caan raipi in rel cia zo hnak thu i. Hmailamthu rel cia tute in amahte relhnak thu heh a zatute in sang tuh in, “pathian rauhla in irel i” tiin, ti tlang de i. Ikhalselai, hmailam thu rel ciahnak thu heh a cang ngaingai fangin ian heh a zatute in sang tuh hnak i. Laivum minungte in ruat ban tawk hmailam ah thil cang thai tuhhnakte heh reldun in kilkhawl dun de ai dikcang hnak tawkfang um thai i, cia heh laivum minungte kilkhawl dun dan, “thu-zara (သာမန်ဖြစ်စဉ်) tiin, ngai sung thi ising. Ikhalselai, a rel ciahnak thute heh 100% dikcang siolo ai, sangtio tuhhnak khai i cuanglo i. Ikhalselai, Kin Bawipa Jesuh laivum ah te tuhhnak thu tu kum tampi in rel ciahnak thu, ngaihsunurkul thu dik i.

Jesuh kawisal tuhhnak khai rel ciahnak thu thotho i:

Kin Bible songah Jesuh Khrih te tuhhnak thu khai rel awng cia bang in Jesuh kawi lehsal tuhhnak thu khai rel cia i. Jesuh in, “Jesuh in a hnuahlunte hnenah, “Thin har le vansang in um mah ih. Pathian sang tu ilai kaimah khai i sang tu ih. I Pa inn ah innkhan tampui um ai ning caah umhnak remm tuhin feh tuh ing. Ciatihin ihlah selai hetihin ning rel tuh lo ing. Cen, kaimah feh ai ning umhnak tuh i rem ben fangin kawi leh tuh ing; ciatihin i umhnak ah um tlang tuh ve i si.” (Johan 14:1-3).

Second coming heh Noah san lai bang i tuh i (Matthai 24:36-44)

Ciami nia le can heh van ai a umtu vancungmi in ituseh, Fapa in ituseh, aisu inkhai ling lo i; Pa ian in ling i. Noah san laiah thil a canghnak bangin Mi Fapa a hleng can ah cang tuh ve i.

Ciatihin tilawi in a lan sek hlan tian ziang cang tuh i, ti aisu inkhai ling tlang lo i. Ciabang thotho in Mi Fapa a hleng fangin khai cang tuh i. Ciami can a hleng fangin lo ah mite pahnih naper kawm tuhai pakhat tu lang tuhai pakhat tu hlum tuh i. Nupangte pahnih sum ruan dun tuhai pakhat tu lang tuhai pakhat tu hlum tuh i.

“Ciamanin ralring in um tu ih; zaimantifangin zaikom ah ning Bawipa hleng tuh i ti ling lo i si.

Ciamanin ralring ngai in um tu ih, zaimantifangin Mi Fapa tu ning ralring lo can ah hleng tuh i.”

Noah san ah minung tampi in Pathian thu heh zai siar tlanglo ai Pathian thinraw hnak tuar tlang i.

Jesuh heh a sangtu mite lang tuh in kawi sal tuh i, hlun tuh in ready zo aw sim?
