Vantung tawhtang
“…Lei ah na hente vantungah zong kihen dinga, lei ah na khahte
vantungah zong kikhah ding hi…” (Matt 16: 19). Peter zong vantung
tawhtang kipia a, tua tawhtang pen tawhtang takpi hi loin, Lungdamna
thu a hilhna a gen hizaw hi. Tua lungdamna thu gen theih nading
thuneihna pen tuhun ah lungdamna thu tangko dinga Pasian sap mite
khempeuh tungah zong hong tung ciat ta ahi hi. Hih thu pen Topa Jesuh’
kammal le nungzuipite tungtawna hong kizom suk ciin le zuih ding
ngeina hoih (tradition) taktak pen ahi hi. Tuhun ah Pasian’ Lungdamna
thu tangkote zahpih theih hi nawn lo-a, amaute in Peter ngah mah
bangin vantung kong lut theihna tawhtang a neite uh ahi hi.

Sawltak laikhak sung ih et ciangin, Nungzuipi sawltak Peter mahmah in
Pentecost ni in Judah mite’ tungah lungdamna thu tangko theihna
tawhtang tawh vantung kong honna thu a na hilh masa pen pa ahi hi
(Sawltak 2), bektham loin Samiria mite (Sawl. 8), le Gentail mite
(Sawl. 10) tung dongah lungdamna thu na tangko hi. Hih banga lungdamna
thu tangko theihna thuneihna pen Peter bek ah a kiciangtan (not
exclusive to Peter) hi lo a, Local Pawlpi ciat in zong tua lungdamna
thu tangko theihna tawhtang a nei ahi hi. Tua hi a, Lai Siangtho in
“…na hente kihen dinga, na khahte kikhah ding…” (Matt. 18:18) a cih
ciangin a huamin gen lehang, Peter le Roman Church bek a gen hi
lozawin, leitung kiu-li a om Local Pawlpi ciat ii thuneih nading a gen

Note lah na lutnuam kei uh a, a lutnuamte lah na lutsak kei uh hi” na
ci hi (Matt. 23: 13).

Mi khat peuh ii mawhna na mai sak uh leh – cihthu pen Matt. 16: 19 le
18:18na te ah zong ih mu khin hi. Sawltakpite pen Pawlpi ii khuampite
ahi uh hi (Efesa. 2: 20). Tuni tuhun in sawltakpite khat zong om nawn

amaute’ tungtawnin a kiphut pawlpi’ thuneihna zia (tradition) pen
tuhun ciangin local pawlpi ciatin kemcing-a ih cihtakpih ding ih
vaipuak ahi hi. Sawltakpite in Pawlpi phut ih cih mah bangin, amaute’
phuh pawlpi in a khangkhanga kizom ding ahi hi. Tua a khangkhang a
kizom pawlpi pen leitung kiuli a om local pawlpite ahi hi (1 Cor.
5:4). Hih local pawlpi ciat in Pasian’ tangmi dingin ding uh a, mawhna
maisakna thu le hencipna thu a tang koko uh ahi hi. Hih banga leitung
mite tungah mawhna maisakna pen Pawlpite lungdamna thuhilhna ah kinga
a, tuamah bangin pawlpi sungah ki-ukna kikhalna, kihonna kihenna zong
pawlpi khat ciat’ nasep mah ahi hi. Topa Jesuh ii thupiakna authority
a ngah pen RC pawlpi bek cihna hi loin local Pawlpi ciat ah hizaw hi.

Article 30 of the Belgic Confession: Pawlpi ki-ukna (the Government of
the Church)
Pawlpi maan taktak ih cih pen Topa Jesuh’ in a kammal tawh hong hilh
Kha thu tawh kisai lam-ah ki-ukna hi ding hi ci-in ih um hi. Pasian’
kammal hong hilh ding pastor ahkl minister te a om kul a, tuate in
pawlpi zatloh a phamawh zeksahte ah hong makaih ding uh a kul ahi hi
(Zeksah cihteh tuiphumna le nekkhawm cihte hi). Pawlpi khat ii
kilamzia ah pastor te bek hi loin, upa makaite (deacons le elders)
zong a om kul hi.
Hih thu teng tawh pawlpi khat a kilam nakleh pawlpi khat in a kip hi

mihoih lo mawhna a bawlbawlte Lai Siangtho zia tawh enpha in thuhilh

Hih bangin pawlpi sungah nahoihsep kisemin pawlpi kilam kimdimdiam
dinga, Paul in 1 Timothy 3na sungah a gen mah bangin a citak mite a
hunzui-in mukhia in pawlpi’ adingin kiteel ding hi.
