Kohhran lam i hawi ang u

A bul aṭanga kir leh

Mizoram hi ‘Kristian ram’ tia koh a ni fo a, a dik a ni. Chhungkaw zawng zawng hian Kristian an ni tih an hriattîr a, Presbyterian Kohhran hi hun rei tak chhung chu kohhran thu nung ber leh zah ber a ni. Mahse, chuti chung chuan zawhna harsa tak tak kan inzawh a ngai.

Eng vangin nge Mizoram hi India rama HIV rate sang ber (2.73%) a nih, ram pum average aia sang?

Eng vangin nge ruihhlo leh zu ngawlvei hi an pun chak em em, a bik takin ṭhalaite zingah?

Eng vangin nge a hma aia fakna zan leh harhna inkhawm tam zawk awm mah se, rinnaah hian hlimthla a lo chhuah chhoh zel?

Eng vangin nge Kristian ṭhalai tam takte chuan Pathian biaknaa tel reng pawhin thlarau lamah kan dal em em?

Thu dik hriat chu a hrehawm hle. Kan biakna leh thlarau lam insiam dan chu a thûk lo ta hle mai. Thuk tak chu rilru natna nen kan inthleng a, order chu phurna nen kan hralh a, sakramen chu mittui tlakna nen kan inthleng a ni.

Reformed worship aṭanga emotionalism thlengin

Tunlai kan kohhran tam zawkah chuan Pathian biakna hi a danglam nasa hle. Tuna ‘pangail’ kan tih hi hetiang hi a ni fo ṭhin:

1. Drum, guitar leh mahni duh thu au chhuahna hmanga fakna nasa tak zai.

2. Concert ang maia boruak, zahna aia rilru lam ngaihtuah zawk.

3. Thurin zirtîrna thla tin emaw, casual communion emaw, reformed tradition-ah kar tin zah taka sakramen aia thilmak, rilru puthmang leh chêttîrna ngaih pawimawh zâwkna sermon.

Hetiang Pathian biakna hi tunah chuan Mizo culture tia humhalh a ni ta. Pastor tam tak chuan, “Hetiang hian kan mite hi rilru lama an inzawm dan a ni,” emaw, “Hei hi kum 1906 harhnain min rawn thlen chu a ni,” an ti. Mahse, hei hi kan Presbyterian nihna dik tak a ni tak tak em? A nih loh leh kan thlak em ni?

Reformed leh confessional tradition kan theihnghilh

I theihnghilh lo ang u. Kan kohhran hian Westminster Confession of Faith hi a pawm a, kan bul ṭanna chu John Calvin, John Knox leh Scottish Reformation te aṭangin kan chhuak a, heng hruaitute hian hetiang hian an zirtîr a ni.

Westminster Confession of Faith Chapter 29.7-ah chuan, “Lalpa Zanriah Sacrament-ah chhang leh wine hi Krista thisen leh tisaah a rawn chang tak tak.” Institutes of the Christian Religion, Book 4, Chapter 10-ah, “Sam chu a thluk (solfa-in) zai tur a ni, mihring phuah belh hmang loin.” Scots Confession Chapter 21-ah, “Sacraments (Lalpa Zanriah leh baptisma)-ah khawngaihna a tel lo titu chu ânchhedawngin awm rawh se.” Calvin’s Institutes, Book 4, Chapter 17, Section 47-ah “Lalpa Zanriah Sacrament hi neih ngun tur a ni…” (a sawi nachhan chu Medieval Roman Catholic biakin ṭhenkhatten Lalpa Zanriah hi an neih khât vanga a do letna).

An biakin chu emotionalism emaw, music emaw-ah a innghat lo va, hengahte hian a innghat:

1. Sam hla sak leh thu ziaha ṭawngṭaina.

2. Thla tin zahna nena inpawlna neih ṭhin (Lalpa Zanriah Sacrament).

3. Catechism leh Pathian thu zirtîrna.

4. Pastoral hruaitu chak tak leh discipline ṭha tak neih.

Kum 1906-a Mizorama harhna a lo thlen hnu pawh khan kan kohhran hmasate chuan liturgical order leh Bible thuchah an vawng reng a. Tunlaia charismatic style hi kum sawmthum aṭanga kum sawmli chhûngin a lo darh ta a ni — Pentecostal media leh harhna crusade-te’n a nghawng fo ṭhin vângin.

Emotion-based worship leh psychology

Emotional hype (music ring tak, au vak, mipui awm khawma phûr hluaina ang chi) hian dopamine a tichak a, chu chu addiction avanga lo awm, chemical ang chiah hi a ni. Mite chu an phûr hluai mai, mahse, a hnuah mood a tlahniam buaih a, chu chuan thlarau lam engmah lo leh lungngaihna thlengin a thlen a ni.

Structure, silence, mystery leh sacramental grounding-te tel lo chuan thlarau chu a nghet lo rêng a ni. Hei hi a ni, ‘aw ring taka biakna’ hmanga sei lian ṭhalai tam tak chu hmânlaiin ‘meia kâng’ nia inhriat pawh ni se, thlarau lamah an lo vawt ṭhîn a ni.

Ministries leh kohhran chhuahsan

Ministry-ho hian kohhran chhuahsan ta se engtin nge ni ang? Kohhran hruaitu ṭhenkhat chuan heti hian an sawi, “Liturgical, reformed worship lama kan kir leh chuan kan kohhran chhunga charismatic style rawngbawlna hmang ṭhîn ministry-ho tam tak chu an chhuak mai thei. Ṭhalai tam takin anmahni hi an lawm a, an chhuak a nih chuan mi tam tak an la ang a, kohhran thar an din thei a ni.”

He hlauhna hi a tak tak a ni. Mahse, dik takin i sawi ang u. Pathian tilâwm tûrin kan biakna kan thlak danglam em? A nih loh leh mi tilâwm tûrin kan thlak danglam em? Isua’n, “Mipui hlim takin awm rawh u,” a ti em? A nih loh leh heti hian a sawi em: “Kawngkhar chu a zîm… a hmutu pawh an tlem hle,” (Matthaia 7:14).

Bible zahna, inpuang taka biakna lama kan kir leh avanga mi ṭhenkhat kan hloh chuan thil lungchhiatthlak a ni lo; thianghlimna ṭûl tak a ni. Krista kohhran hian hma a hruai tur a ni a, mi ngaihdan a zâwm tur a ni lo. Rawngbawlnate hian liturgy leh sakramen mawina hmu rawh se, a nih loh leh thutak an pawm theih loh chuan kalsan rawh se.

Hmasawn chak – Kohhran rinawm

Ni e, India ramah hian Pentecostal kohhran, charismatic style worship ang chi hi an lo ṭhang lian zel a; mahse, chu chu kan thil tum a ni em — number inelna mai em ni?

Kohhran ṭhang chak tak takte hi kan ensan tur an ni lo, an ṭhanlenna chu:

1. Emotional manipulation.

2. Hrilhlâwkna dik lo, zawlnei der ang chi emaw thil mak lem.

3. Thuhril chhung lam aṭangin lo chhuak.

4. Sakramen leh theology chungchanga buaina.

Thilmak pawh lo ti tak tak pawh ni se, Exodus-a Pharoa puithiamte pawh khan thilmak an tih ve theih tho kha (Exodus 7:10–12). Chuan, Isua hminga thilmak tih hrim hrim hian chhandamna a kâwk kher lo tih hi Bible-ah kan hmu thei bawk (Matthaia 7:21–23). American Orthodox theologian pakhat Peter Heers chuan, “Thilmak (miracles) hi kan rinna berah kan dah ber tur a ni lo, thilmak buaipui ṭhînte chu rinna lama chak loh ṭan an ni,” a ti a; a dik khawp mai.

Isua’n a kohhran chu ṭhang chak pawp pawp turin min hrilh lo, zirtîrte siam turin a hrilh zawk a ni. Reformed tradition hian speed aia thûk zawk hi a thlang fo zawk.

Mizoramin a mamawh, kan kir leh ngaihnate

1. Zahawm tak leh thianghlimna nena thla tin tal communion (Lalpa Zanriah Sacrament) neih ṭhin.

2. Sam hla sak leh ordered liturgy.

3. Ṭhalai leh naupangte tan catechism neih.

4. Theology lam hawi thu sawi, motivational speech lampang ni loin. Upa leh pastor train chhuah, huaisen tak tak neih.

5. Rilru tihharh mai ni lovin, thlarau siamtu biaknaah.

Ṭhalaite hian thil thianghlimah an rilṭâm a, thûk lo lamah an rilṭâm lo. Kohhran hian khawvel copy hi a bânsan a, thianghlimna kawngah hma a hruai ṭhin a ngai a ni.

Thu tawp nan

Lalpa Zanriah Sacrament hi Kohhran pate (church fathers)-te pawh hian an la serious hle. A bik takin Tirhkoh Johana zirlai Ignatius phei chuan Middle Recension of Smyrnaeans 6:2–7:1-a ama ziakah chuan Lalpa Zanriah Sacrament hi chhinchhiahna satliah tih zirtîrna chu thil hlauhawm tak a ni a, ṭhenkhat hrilhfiahnaah phei chuan amah hian hetiang ring pawl ho chu Kristian an ni lo a tihna an ti hial!

Jeremia 6:16 (MGB)-ah, LALPA chuan heti hian a ti: Kalkawngahte ding ula, en rawh u. Kawng ṭha awmna kawng hlunte chu zawt rawh u, tahchuan kal ula, i thlarau tan chawlhna in hmu ang. Anni erawh chuan, ‘Tah chuan kan kal lo vang,’ an ti a.

Harhnain kum 1906 khan engin min rawn thlen a; mahse, tunah chuan a thûkzia rawn hruai kir leh turin siamṭhatna kan mamawh a ni. Tirhkohte Thiltiha Pentecost-a lo thlena an rik buaih hnu pawh khan kohhran chu structure pangngai tak an nei chhunzawm nghal a, chu chu kohhran pate (church fathers)-ho ziakah kan hmu thei. Mipui hloh hi hlau lo ila, thu dik hi i hlau ang u.

Mizoram kohhran hma lam hun tur chu Bible order emaw, popular emotion emawte chu kan thlan danah a innghat a ni. Duhthlanna chu kan ta a ni. Kohhran chu kohhran ni leh rawh se.

Soli Deo Gloria (Ropuina chu Pathian chungah chauh awm rawh se).
