It is a known fact that all the Nagas are called Christians.The tenets of Christianity is to love the Lord with all our body,mind ,soul and strength.This is the greatest commandments and the second is to love our neighbors as ourselves..Nagas have organized revival meetings,crusades and promised to God that we will live like true Christians.However,when temptation comes we are not able to resist the devil.This may be due to the reason that we do not read the Bible or even if we read the Bible we do not live as per the teaching of the bible which is the word of God.
In 1872 Christianity came first to the people of th Aos.There was a great revival among the Aos from November 1-3,2017 in Mokokchung Town. After two months another revival of election came and the Aos are the first among the Nagas to fight each other for election followed by the Lothas.Christians should fight against the satanic influence.However Christians are fighting against each other during the election .Why do people fight each other ? What shall one gain by killing our own brother or burning the properties of our own Villagers.Election shall be over within two weeks and people have to live together.So let us all think it over what Jesus said in Matthew 5:9 Let us all try to learn to be peace maker and not trouble maker.
I have been told that people are fighting under the influence of liquer.So why not we try like this.Let some young people make very good tea and call all the people who wants to fight each other and serve the tea with good quality biscuits and advise them to fight.I am sure nobody will dare to fight because there is no influence of alcohol in the tea.
It is learn that on the day of polling every single voter shall capture by video caamera and if anybody is found doing proxy just to earn extra money shall be arrested immediately and send to jail.This is very good arrangement .this is a time of testing our allegiance to our creator that w are fearfully and wonderfully made.Every individual is a unique person and if anybody mtry to impersonate then God will punich because He has creatwed every individual in a very spcial way.We talk about video camera which is invented by huiman being with the knowledge given by our creator.God has more powerful eye that video camera.The Bible says that God sees everything with His seven eyes which moves around allover the world. Nobody can escape.
For the next few days many people will be very busy doing something or other for their own choice of candidates.This is a movement of working hard for their candidates.How good and pleasant for our people if we start like this movement to send 10,000 missionaries from Nagaland which has been committed by our forefathers.It is learnt that even after 40 years of this commitment we could not send even 3000 dedicated missionaries. What a failure.
Therefore my appeal to all our people during this election that let us all think of our lives and keeping in mind the above mentioned bible verse let us all go to the polling on February 27 and elect the best candidates who can bring better development so that peace will flow like a river..If we elect our leaders not not according to the will of God we will suffer like the people of Israel who live under slavery for 70 years.Let not this happen in Nagaland which is for Christ.
May the Almighty Good bless all who read this message diligently
