Tua behlapin SDA-te in Mang 14:6-12 bulphuh-in, vantungmi thum thupuak pen "pau khempeuh, nam khempeuh, pawl khempeuh" tungah puak dingin ngimna nei hi. Tua in SDA kiphuhna abulpi ahihi.

Ei SDA amimal le kipawlna in zong imasuan ahi SDA ihihna abulpi pen ahi, vantungmi thum tangkona i kin kei leh, agahlo singkung bang ihi hi. GC president lui, Elder Folkenberg in ihnasepna pen "motor buanlak awk bangin, apei akinawh pei mah2 hang letmat khat zong akinlo" bangin nasep i manlah hangin lungdamna thupuak adingin masuan letmat khat zong kinlo thei hi cin gen hi.
