  6. Lutherans in Delhi: To be or not to be?

    These are times that try our souls. News of MELC’s plan for Delhi expansion has agitated the alert minds of our Zou community here.

    Back at home in Manipur, my family is an ardent adherent of the Lutheran church; and to that extent, I consider myself a member of this denomination. But living in a metropolitan city like Delhi, I think our secular and legal identity as “Zou tribe” has more relevance in everyday lives. The Zou community rightly takes pride in our historic and enduring association with ZCF, the mother of all ethnic Zo Christians in Delhi. Till now, we are not forced to make a cruel choice between our loyalty to our common Christian identity and our conflicting sectarian allegiances like MELC, ZPCS or ZCBC.

    Past experience affirmed that ZCF is a “Free Church” that has an intellectual legacy challenging us to expand our minds, to transcend our “narrow domestic walls,” and to explore more inclusive religious possibilities. This exposure allows for an expansive community bond that sustains our sojourns in Delhi, a strange land for many of us.

    Against all odds, a slightly different version of Free Church has been held up by the Kuki Worship Service in certain cities of India. Unlike the predominantly Baptist Paites, the diverse nature of denominational affiliations among the Kukis and the Zous makes Free Church the best model available in our present condition. We don’t need sectarian zealots here. But we yearn for visionaries who appreciate social solidarity beyond one’s local church – a community of interest based on shared language, history and culture.

    It will be a tragedy of history if we in Delhi fail to learn any lesson from the recent Shillong Split of ZWS, and the bitterness of spirit created by such sectarian divisions and social segregation. Are we tempted by short-term financial benefits in tithe harvesting, or sentimental feeling of victory in extending a sectarian empire, or temporary gains in membership statistics? If anyone glories in these, I despise such mean souls.

  11. Dear Delhi Zous and friends,
    If every one of you don't like any religious denomination (Lutheran, Presbyterian, Catholic, Bible Church, Christian church, etc.) to be founded, and if you are all determined to oppose any move on this issue, why don't you start NON-COOPERATION movement? Are they trying to colonize the Delhi Zous?

    If we co-operate, we will be colonized by the alien power - one after another. The English, The French, The Spanish, etc. heheheheee.. . Just ignore and don't cooperate. To me, that's the best medicine and the need of the hour now. If you don't do that now, more religious denominations (alien power) are yet to come, and we will be more divided. Just don't co-operate and stand united in word and in deed, guys.

    Regards,

    Moderator, ZouWorkshop

  12. The problem within our Zou community has always been because of people who knows the truth, but always compromise for their personal gain and favoritism. It is high time for the younger generations to fight against social evils. Do not cover yourself with good words when you want to support something. If things are bad, called it bad. Never compromise bad things as good though it benifit you greatly.

    Social gospel has been too common in our community. Several community leaders and pastors receive more praise than the Lord Jesus Christ. We are going far away from the Lord, and it is high time for us to repent our wrong doings. Is Jesus our Lord? or, Is Pastor A or Mr. B our god? It is sad to know that denominations are more prominent in our community churches than the Lord Jesus?

    My last advice to my Zou brothers is this: If you don't have the true heart to serve Jesus, and if you don't have the passion to follow Jesus in any circumstances, do not get involve in Church administration. Church belongs to God, and not to you or any denominations in particular. The truth is the Bible, and never use it for your personal fame like the Pharisee. Your good position in the government offices or private company or your BA's and MA's and eloquency is not the qualification to be a shepherd or church leaders, but honesty with God's Word and humble submissiveness to it is the qualification to be a good church leaders.

  13. Surely God will not be happy with the so called Church Leaders who act like a thief and hastily establish a new Church without any consultation and consensus with the affected members of the society to promote vested interest even though they may be decorated with very highly respectable titles such as Rev., Bishop, Pastors etc. I feel it is high time that all the young scholars and all the right thinking persons from amongst the Zou community should stand together and express their views freely and frankly without any fear or favour, led or hindrance and contribute their knowledge and talent for the promotion of unity and fraternity amongst the entire Zou community (and not for the promotion of sectarian interest on the basis of clan, religion or place of brith etc.) as is being done in the instant case in Delhi. I can only say it is very unfortunate when the Kuki Chiefs and Aimol Chiefs sit together and resolved to try and promote unity amongst themselves, our Zou Church Leaders appears to be too keen to divide us on every possible lines only to promote sectarian interest, personal benefits and short term gains etc. instead of trying to promote love and unity among the entire Zou community. No matter whoever may say or do what they want, I am confident as always that we shall not waver in defending the truth for the promotion of unity amongst the entire Zou community.

  15. Let me tell you something about the establishment of Lutheran in Delhi.

    To be frank, I have always wanted our parent churches to be established in every cities wherever we are. I have this feeling from the experience which I faced in Shillong when Presbytarian was established way back in 1999 or 2000.

    Last year, The Lutheran leaders came to Delhi to study the feasibility of eastablishing their Church. By that time, I told them that I am with their purpose but to delay for atleast 3/4 years in view of Delhi Zou Society situations. They delaid for one full year but could no longer wait for another 2/3 years and they came with their Assembly resolutions.

    Eventhen, I tried my best to delaid for another 2/3 years, but in vain.

    This is the short story!

  16. You will forgive me if I asked are you, Can you 100% confidently say, I will go to Heaven if A Lightning strikes you at this moment ??!! How many can say Yes ??!
    I read thro' a couple of the messages that have been posted in this Workshop, well to be very frank I completely failed to see, why the issue should even be discussed with such passion and commitment as if the whole issue is SALVATION or REDEMPTION itself.
    Maybe we could change the topic to "Religious Dogmas & Hypocrisy" or " Whether or not Lutheran's expansion is Ideal to Delhi Zou Society" ? Or Even what's wrong with Lutheran (MELC). Let's take a closer look at all the different denominations that we have around us, amongst us. It's just a matter of time before it happens. Religions zealots ??! Well I feel it might be just possible that we have entangled and absorb ourselves in political arguments that no longer applies in this day and time for so long that we completely failed to understand or accept the fact that these so called religious fanatics and zealots might have a very simple, transparent, clean, honest, well intended and ascetic plans and ambitions. I think, there's a NEED (mind you, not want) to see things in a bit more liberal, practical and optimistic way. Why don't we take religion as religion and politics as politics. Black is black and white is white. Let's try removing the Grey matter that emanates when we mixed black and white colors. Perhaps on our ways from Burma/ China to India, could it be possible that our ancestors have brought along with them the Communist or Autocratic Ideologist so prevalent in those countries to this secular country, India. May their souls rest in peace. Lets be prudent and have the sense not to turned the whole issue into a Bollywood Masala Movie.

    Bangteng hileh sialsi nunga sialdai kai toh kibang sim giap lei kilom ? As far as I'm concern, I think we are aggravating the situation. What we're now discussing is not a remedy, but a process of degradation in the Society. We talk about it like some hideous crime have been committed. If someone has committed a crime, let's go to the Police and file an FIR. Let's try opening up a little bit, broaden our horizons and perspectives and try to see what's happening around the world. Let's be a little bit tolerant, forgiving and let's not be sarcastic about everything and anything that crosses our malnourished dysfunctional thoughts.
    One thought crosses my mind, though radical, maverick and far fetch I feel is worth exploring. If we had been at the times of Jesus Christ and his apostles, what would our stand be ??!!
    I believe we all believe in the Missionaries who are working amongst non-believers (Hindus), would we be responsible for the break up of Hindu Dalit communities, etc. I know, it all seems like an absurd comparision to make.
    My point is that a Coin has two sides and whichever angle you look at it, its still a Coin and the crux of our religions ideology is to worship God. I don't believe the name of the church or the building would redeem me from all my sins.
    If I may, I did like to look the above said issue in a little different perspective. "a b........... ..P Q R........... ...w x y z" – Alphabetical order of the English Alphabet. Maybe we are thinking differently or maybe we are talking about things in a slightly different perspective. Wait a minute, in fact maybe we are talking about completely different topics in some parallel universe.

    "I STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT THERE'S A REASON WHY THERE'S "Q" IN BETWEEN P AND R".
    Point Illustration: -
    P= Politics
    Q=.......... ......... .....
    R=Religion.
    I would like to request you all kind readers to kindly filled up the blank and let's see which English word fits the description best??!!!!

    Personally, I believe we will have to stand in a very long long "Q" QUEUE, before we enter Paradise if we have to put P=R or even put P next to R. As a matter of fact, I don't see the queue ending ever!!!!.
    Maybe we are the Religions zealots ?!! Lets take a look back at history's most revered philosophers, since we all look like one.
    Koiten Bangen uh!!!
    1. Al Gore (Former VP of USA) quotes Mahatma "Become the Change you want to see in the World".
    2. Socrates "Know thyself, It is the beginning of wisdom."
