Hmun dangah pawh he tiang hian kan hmu, “Kei mi thianghlim zawng zawnga te ber aia te zawk hnenah hian chu khawngaihna chu pek a ni” (Eph 3:10) tiin. 

Hmanah chuan sawichhetu leh tiduhdahtu leh sawisatu a ni a, mahse Pathian khawngaihna chuan ‘rinawmah’ ngaiin, a rawngbawltuah a ruat a (1Tim1:12-14), “Ani chuan kan thiltih angte ni lovin, ama ruat leh khawngaihna ang zâwkin min chhandam a, kohna thianghlimin min ko bawk a; chu khawngaihna chu leilung pian hmain Krista Isuaah chuan min pêk a ni tawh” (2Tim1:9) a ti hial a ni.

He tiang hi nimahse, “Nangni Dana thiam chan tumte u, Krista nen in inthen ta; khawngaihna chu in tluk san ta” (Gal 5:4) a tih avangin; Dana thiamchan tumtute chu; rinna kal lova, felna leh thiamchanna chu Dan avanga chan an tum thin avangin’ khawngaihna chu chutiang mite tan chuan tluk san theih a ni tih hei hian a ti chiang a ni.
