Biathlam 13: 18 ah kan hmuhmi No. 666 timi nih hin Khrihfami fak piin a kan buaiter.
Sullam a ngeimi le minung Number a si tikah zeidah a sullam a si hnga tiah ruahnak phunphun a um i, nihin tiang dong loin a sullam an kawl. Cheukhat nih No. 666 hi vawleicung ah hruaitu phunphun hna he an tahchun hna. Caesar a si an ti, Nero a si an ti, Caligula a si an ti, Ronald Wilson Reagan a si an ti, Mikhail Gorbachev a si an ti etc. Nihin tiangah aho chimmi hmanh an hman lo. Asinain vawlei hruaitu hna lakah ahodah Number 666 hi a si lai timi cu kan cuan cio hna.

Asinain vawlei hruaitu hna lakah ahodah Number 666 hi a si lai timi cu kan cuan cio hna.
Kan fian khawhnak ding ah a tlangpi in Dal 13 chung hi kan vun zoh hmasa hna lai. Biathlam 13 hi political mit in cuanh a haumi a si. John nih rili kam i, a um lio ah a hmuhnak a ngei. Cucu “ki hra le lu pasarih a ngeimi saram rili chungin a rak chuah thluahmah kha ka hmuh. Ki pahra cungah luchin pahra an um i, lu pakhat cio cungah khan volhpamhnak min a um” ti hi a si (13: 1b). Hi bantuk khuaruahhar a simi saram hi ahodah a si hnga timi an zoh lengmang tikah saram taktak kha a chim duhmi si loin ram (Rome Uknak) a chim duhmi tu a si (Daniel 7: 7-8; Rev 12: 3; 17: 3, 7).
Rome uknak hi ahohmanh nih do hawk tha loin a rak thawngmi a si. Asinain Khrihfami an karh tuk tikah siangpahrang tiang in Khrihfa ah canter an si. Cuticun duhsah tein Rome cozah hi amah tein a ziam thluahmah. “Khrihfa biaknak kha Rome biaknak ah an rak sermi hi Rome uknak a thihtertu a si”[1] tiah Hennry nih cun a ti. Tuanbia kan zoh tikah Rome pennak ram vialte fun than i, thawhter aa zuammi an tampi. “Charlemagne (A.D 800) nih fun than i, thawhter aa zuam, asinain a hlawhtling lo; A.D 962 ah Otto of German nih aa zuam than i, a hlawhtling hlei lo; Tsar of Russia nih aa zuam i, a hlawhtling lo; Napoleon zong nih a tlinh lo; Mussolini zong nih a tlinh lo i, Hitler zong nih a tlinh lo— ahohmanh nih Rome an thawhter than ko ti hna lo.”[2]
Roman uknak zoh tikah political mit cun a thimi a lo i, biaknak lei tu in a nung. Cucu Roman Catholic biaknak hi a si. Pope umnak khua fate Vatican nih Italy in zalonnak (Independence) a hmuh hnu cun Roman Catholic biaknak hi puanzar phen in a rak cawlcang lengmang. “Vawleicung biaknak fonh ding in aa zuam i, European Common Market a rak chuah pitu zong hi Roman Catholic a si.
Hi pahnih hi Rome pennak ram a thawhter thantu a si lai tiah an zumh. Rome uknak a thawhthan naak ding in Roman Catholic hi biatak tein a cawlcangmi a si.”[3] European Union zong a chuak beh, A tuanbia a sau caah kan chim ti lai lo Chim duhmi cu Roman Catholic biaknak hi biapi ngai in rian a tuanmi a si. Biathlam 17: 3; 18 rel ahcun zeitluk in dah rian a tuan khawh timi theih khawh a si. 13: 7, 8; 17: 6 ah kan hmuh thanmi cu Roman Catholic thiamthiam hi Khrihfami a hremtu hna a si.
Pathian bia phuan ruangah Roman Catholic biaknak nih a thahmi hna an tam tuk cang. “Muslim, Communist le a dangdang fonh in Khrihfami an thahmi vialte hna naak in Roman Catholic nih Khrihfami a thahmi a tam deuh lai”[4] tiah Thomas Mathews nih cun a ti. Cun nihin ah Roman Catholic nih biatak tein biaknak vialte fonhnak lam (a unified world religious system) a kawl cuahmah lio pi a si. Biaknak min in Khrihfabu cu a si ko nain a nunnak in nun pimi biaknak si loin a hriamnam tu ah bianak hi a hman.
Mah ruangah hin Roman Catholic biaknak hi hlawhhlang nu tiang Bible nih cun a uah. Asinain Khrihfa dohtu (Antichrist) nih vawleicung nawlngeihnak lak a duh in hawikawmhnak a hrawh lai i, amah lila zong a hrawh te lai (Biathlam 17: 16). Hi tiangah kan theih khawhmi cu Khrihfa dohtu (Antichrist) a chuahnak dingah Roman Catholic hi lamsialtu a si i, a caan a phan than te lai i, Khrih dohtu nih nawlngeihnak vialte lak a duh tikah ahcun Roman Catholic biaknak hi a hrawh te lai. Kan theih duhmi background vun si seh law, ‘saram’ kong hi kan vun zoh than cang hna lai.
Hi pahnih hi Rome pennak ram a thawhter thantu a si lai tiah an zumh. Rome uknak a thawhthan naak ding in Roman Catholic hi biatak tein a cawlcangmi a si.”[3] European Union zong a chuak beh, A tuanbia a sau caah kan chim ti lai lo Chim duhmi cu Roman Catholic biaknak hi biapi ngai in rian a tuanmi a si. Biathlam 17: 3; 18 rel ahcun zeitluk in dah rian a tuan khawh timi theih khawh a si. 13: 7, 8; 17: 6 ah kan hmuh thanmi cu Roman Catholic thiamthiam hi Khrihfami a hremtu hna a si.

Biaknak min in Khrihfabu cu a si ko nain a nunnak in nun pimi biaknak si loin a hriamnam tu ah bianak hi a hman.
Mah ruangah hin Roman Catholic biaknak hi hlawhhlang nu tiang Bible nih cun a uah. Asinain Khrihfa dohtu (Antichrist) nih vawleicung nawlngeihnak lak a duh in hawikawmhnak a hrawh lai i, amah lila zong a hrawh te lai (Biathlam 17: 16). Hi tiangah kan theih khawhmi cu Khrihfa dohtu (Antichrist) a chuahnak dingah Roman Catholic hi lamsialtu a si i, a caan a phan than te lai i, Khrih dohtu nih nawlngeihnak vialte lak a duh tikah ahcun Roman Catholic biaknak hi a hrawh te lai. Kan theih duhmi background vun si seh law, ‘saram’ kong hi kan vun zoh than cang hna lai.
Rome cozah cu Khrihfami ruangah a thi tiah Hennry nih cun a ti. Asinain Biathlam 13 ah Lamkaltu John nih a thawhthannak kong a kan chimh. ‘Rili chungin a chuakmi’ saram he a tahchun. ‘Saram’ sullam cu Rome cozah hruaitu a si i, ‘rili chungin’ a rak chuak timi sullam cu Gentile miphun chungin a chuakmi a si lai. Bible biaphuan zoh tikah ‘rili’ sullam cu Gentile ti duhnak a si (Biathlam 17: 15; Isaiah 57: 20; Luke 21: 25). Cheukhat nih cun ‘rili’ sullam cu Mediterranean a si an ti. John nih hmuhnak a ngeih lio hi Island Patmos ah a um lio te a si ve.
Cucah Mediterranean he aa naih bik ko tiah an zumh. John F. Walvoord nih cun “a pahnih in a hmaan ve ko zeicatiah Gentile miphun zong a si lai i, Mediterranean hrawnghrang in a chuak te lai”[5] a ti. Cun ki hra le lu sarih a ngei i, ki hra cungah luchin pahra an um i, lu pakhat cio cungah volhpamhnak min an um timi ah hin “ki hra le lu sarih sullam cu Rome pennak chungah a rak ummi hna kha an si kho i, luchin sullam cu anmah tein nawlngeihnak an ngeihmi ciomi kha a si khomi a si. Volhpamhnak min sullam cu Pathian le Jesuh Khrih a dohnak kha a si”[6] tiah a chim chih.

Volhpamhnak min sullam cu Pathian le Jesuh Khrih a dohnak kha a si”[6] tiah a chim chih.
Rome uknak a thawhthan tikah Satan (limkheng-v2b) nih uktu (saram) kha nawlngeihnak a pek lai i, siangpahrang thutnak zong a pek chih te lai. Hi Rome cozah uktu hi Daniel 7 nih a chimmi hna thazaang a kemh dih te lai. Daniel 7 ah Babylon (lion), Persia (vom), le Grecce (cakei) kan hmuh hna. Bible nih saram in tahchunnak a hmanmi hna hi an thawnnak le an thazaang kha a langhter duhmi a si. Khrih dohtu (Antichrist) nih hi vialte thazaang hi a kemh chih dih te lai i, a thawng taktak te lai (Biathlam 13: 2). Careltu fiannak ding ah saram, Khrih dohtu, Rome cozah uktu ka timi hna hi sullam khat an si. 13: 3a ah kan hmuhmi cu ‘a lu pakhat ah fak ngai in hma a um, asinain a dam than.
Rome cozah a rak tluknak hi a dam than tikah vawleicung vialte an khuaruah a har dih i, cu saram cu an zulh cio.’ ‘Fak ngai in hma a ngei’ timi hi an hlathlai lengmang tikah Rome cozah a tluknak hi a chim duhmi a si ko tiah an zumh cio. Asinain ‘fak ngai in a ngeihmi hma cu a dam than i vawleicung an khuaruah a har dih i, saram cu an zulh cio’ timi ah hin ruah lo piin Rome cozah a thawhthanmi nih vawleicun khuaruah a harter dih te hna lai i, an zulh cio dih te lai. Saram (Antichrist) nih a hruaimi uknak a si tikah a thawng lai i, vawleicung buainak a phisin khotu ding ah an zumh cio lai i, cuticun aho paoh nih a leadership cu an zulh lai. A thawn le thawn lo cu Babylon, Persia le Grecec hna thawnnak vialte fonh tluk kha a si te lai. Cu pinah Satan hrimhrim nih thawnnak le nawlngeihnak a pek lai. A thawn tuk tikah minung nih an upat tuk lai i, an biak te lai (v4).
Rome cozah a rak tluknak hi a dam than tikah vawleicung vialte an khuaruah a har dih i, cu saram cu an zulh cio.’ ‘Fak ngai in hma a ngei’ timi hi an hlathlai lengmang tikah Rome cozah a tluknak hi a chim duhmi a si ko tiah an zumh cio. Asinain ‘fak ngai in a ngeihmi hma cu a dam than i vawleicung an khuaruah a har dih i, saram cu an zulh cio’ timi ah hin ruah lo piin Rome cozah a thawhthanmi nih vawleicun khuaruah a harter dih te hna lai i, an zulh cio dih te lai. Saram (Antichrist) nih a hruaimi uknak a si tikah a thawng lai i, vawleicung buainak a phisin khotu ding ah an zumh cio lai i, cuticun aho paoh nih a leadership cu an zulh lai. A thawn le thawn lo cu Babylon, Persia le Grecec hna thawnnak vialte fonh tluk kha a si te lai. Cu pinah Satan hrimhrim nih thawnnak le nawlngeihnak a pek lai. A thawn tuk tikah minung nih an upat tuk lai i, an biak te lai (v4).
Aa phorhlawtnak kha a lian chin lengmang lai i, Pathian tiang in a volhpamh lai i, a hmun thiang Biakin (Jerusalem Biakin) zong kha a thurhhnawmh te lai. Hi caan a phanh tik hi hremnak nganpi a dongh lei i, kum thum le a cheu chungah a si te lai. Daniel 9 ah fiang tein hi saram pa kong hi a tial cang. Saram pa hi minung a si lai i, ‘Alexander bantukin raltuknak ah khulrang tein teinak a hmumi a si lai i, Hitler bantukin zaangfahnak ngei loin a ziachia lai, Kissinger bantukin diplomacy a thiam lai i, Napoleon bantukin biachim a thiam lai, Caesar bantukin a hrang lai i, Bill Gates bantukin a thluak tha lai’[7] tiah Thomas Mathews nih cun a ti.
Lamkaltu John nih ‘saram’ dang kong a kan chimhmi a um rih (Biathlam 13: 11). Pakhatnak ‘saram’ cu rili in a chuakmi a si i, pahnihnak ‘saram’ cu vawlei in a chuakmi a si. A pahnihnak saram hi Biaknak lei hruaitu a si tiah Thomas Mathews nih cun a ti. A cunglei ah Roman Catholic nih Roman cozah (Antichrist) a chuahnak dingah zeitluk ind ah lam a sial timi kan hmuh. Vawlei cozah le biaknak (Roman Catholic) he then awk tha loin keh-orh in a kal timi an si. Thiang Thlarau nih Fapa sunparnak a pek bantukin Biaknak nih vawlei cozah sunparnak a pek ve lengmang. Cuticun an pahnih in Satan duhnak an tlinter lai.
Cucaah Biaknak nih vawlei cozah a dirhkamh lengmang caah ‘hlawhhlang nu’ tiah Bible nih cun a auh (17: 2). Asinain Antichrist nih biaknak (hlawhhlang nu) cu a hrawh te lai. Caan tha hmuh hlan chung cu a kawmh lai zeicatiah ramkhelnak nih hin biaknak hi a hriamnam ah a hman lengmangmi a si. Biaknak namneh ahcun mipi uk khawh an si lo. Political lungthin naak in biaknak lungthin hi a thawng deuhmi a si. Cucu ramkheltu nih cun an theih i, biaknak hi an hriamnam ah an hman theo lengmang tawn.

A pahnihnak saram kan zoh tikah thil pahnih a kemhmi a um: 1) tuu bantukin ki pahnih a ngei; 2) Satan bantukin bia a chimmi a si (v 11). A sullam cu “biaknak lei thisa a ngeimi le Satan lungput a ngeimi a si i, kap hnih kemh in a nungmi a si”[8] tiah John F. Walvoord nih cun a ti. A pahnih saram nih a langhter duhmi cu Roman Catholic biaknak a si. Zeicatiah vawleicung biaknak kan zoh tikah Roman Catholic bantuk/tluk in rian a tuan kho i, political a khel khomi an um lo. Zeitluk in dah rian a tuan khawh te lai timi cu 13: 13 in a tanglei rel ahcun fiang tein hmuh khawh a si. Vawleicung mi vialte hna kha a pakhatnak saram kha a biakter hna i, an orhlei kut a si lo ah an cal ah hmelchunhnak a tuahter hna lai (v16). Cu hmelchunhnak a ngei lomi paoh cu thil zuar khawh zong a si lai lo i, thil cawk khawh zong a si lai lo.
Hi hmelchunhnak cu Satan Number 666 kha a si. “Pathian nih zumtu hna cu Amah fale kan sinak langhternak caah Thiang Thlarau a kan pek i, Satan zong nih Pathian nawlcawng in a fale kha hmelchunh Number 666 a serpiak ve te hna lai”[9] tiah George W. Davis nih a ti. Khi ni tikah cun zumtu le zumlotu fiang tein theih khawh le thleidan khawh a si cang lai. Zumtu caah cun hremnak in lengmang a si te ko lai. Khrih dohtu (Antichrist) caah zeitluk in dah Roman Catholic bianak nih rian a tuan te lai timi kaahin a lang. Asinain Khrih dohtu (Antichrist) nih a caan a za cang ko lo maw a ti cun a hrawh te lai. Political tiluan cu aa thlen lengmang bantukin khi ni tik zongah aa thleng than lai i, vawlei cozah (Antichrist) nih biaknak cu an huat than lai i, thangchia mualpho in an chiah than (rel chih ding 17: 16).
Hi hmelchunhnak cu Satan Number 666 kha a si. “Pathian nih zumtu hna cu Amah fale kan sinak langhternak caah Thiang Thlarau a kan pek i, Satan zong nih Pathian nawlcawng in a fale kha hmelchunh Number 666 a serpiak ve te hna lai”[9] tiah George W. Davis nih a ti. Khi ni tikah cun zumtu le zumlotu fiang tein theih khawh le thleidan khawh a si cang lai. Zumtu caah cun hremnak in lengmang a si te ko lai.

Saram (Antichrist) pa number 666 hi a phunphun an chimmi a um. Asinain hohmanh nih hman tein an chim khawhmi a um rih lo. Ahodah a si te lai timi theih khawh a si rih lo. Cheukhat nih cun hi saram Khrih dohtu (Antichrist) hi a chuak cang, asinain ahodah a si timi kan theih rih lo caah a si an ti. Cucu zawndawmh in ruahmi thiamthiam a si.
Lamkaltu John nih cun ‘Hi Number theihnak ding ah cun fimnak a herh. Theihhngalnak a ngeimi nih cun saram Number hi tuak hna seh, zeicatiah minung number a si. A Number cu 666 a si’ a ti (13: 18). Hlan lio Greek Bible catialmi cheukhat hna ah cun 666 tial loin 616 in an tial. Asinain an zoh than lengmang tikah 666 si ko tiah an hmuh than. John nih a tial lio ah hin tinhmi zong rak ngeih seh law theih lo a si zeicatiah ‘fimnak’ a herh a ti tikah theih dingmi thil cu a um. J. A Darby lengbang nih cun “hi Number 666 nih a chim duhmi hi ka thei bak lo tiah ka chim ngam ko” tiah a ti.
Asinain fiang tein kan theih khawhmi cu Khrih dohtu pa number cu a si. Hi pa hi ahodah a si timi kan thei rih lo. A number 666 zoh tikah sullam cu a ngei. Bible ah Number a umning hi sullam cu an ngei pah cio. Tahchunnak ah Pathian nih van le vawlei le a chung ummi vialte hna kha niruk chungah a ser hna i, a ni sarihnak ah aa din. Ni sarih hi a tlingmi sullam a ngei. Ni ruk timi hi minung Number a si i, chambaunak a ngeimi a si tiah ruah a si. Siangpahrang Nebuchadnezzar milem kha kio ruk sang le kio ruk kau in sermi an si. Minung Number he aa tlai. Cucaah Number 6 cu minung a chim duhmi a si i, Number 666 hi Khrih dohtu pa number a si te lai.
Asinain fiang tein kan theih khawhmi cu Khrih dohtu pa number cu a si. Hi pa hi ahodah a si timi kan thei rih lo. A number 666 zoh tikah sullam cu a ngei.

Ram pakhat nih ramchungmi sinak hmetpungtin (identity card) an ngei cio. An identity card nih ahodah a si timi a langhter bantukin Number 666 nih ahodah kan si timi langhternak caah hman a si te lai.
