Dimapur July 23 (MExN): Highlighting several instances where divine intervention had ‘warned against’ killings, works of ‘divisive forces’ as well as guided the Naga movement, the Naga National Council lamented that “sectarian leaders” shows no signs of regret or repentance for the Naga killings and refuses to accept the truth.
“Till date, the sectarian leaders show no sign of regret, (realization) or (repentance) for the killings, telling lies and false accusations against the Nagas” according to NNC member Thomas. “Indeed the fact they know that God foretold in 1972, 1974, in march and December 1975 were when no one knows or expects the Shillong will be signed, the mission compound will become as Transit Peace camp or Eno Muivah and Isak will form the NSCN” he stated.
The NNC maintained that despite “God’s Law, His warning and guidance” in the past 25 years, "they" without rest and sleep have been sowing the seeds of hatred and enmity among the Nagas, committing killings, destroying Naga traditional democracy, the integrity and well-being of Nagaland.” The Council stated that these acts cannot be justified “even if they make friendships with hundreds of foreign countries or for that matter even if they explore up to outer space.” They will have no justification for the killing of thousands of Nagas in “the face of God or human” he added.
The NNC stated that instead of justifying the formation of NSCN or killing or attempting to “sell out sovereignty of Nagaland by submitting 30-point competencies proposal” the best thing to do for the NSCN (IM) “is to accept the truth and obey God”. Thomas asserted that God spoke through Lt Kepfelhou on August 15, 1974 at UN Seti Camp: “I will neither deceive you nor betray you. If you obey me, my words will be fulfilled. I will truly take you to your land”.
The statement asserted that in 1984, God spoke to Muivah and Isak through evangelist Athui and a “lady Army” of NSCN “to stop killing and rejoin the NNC” and warned that “if you failed to obey me, I will work against you and there will be more killing taken place among yourselves (NSCN)”. The NNC stated that the words were fulfilled in 1988 when the NSCN split into two factions “as they failed to obey God and killing among themselves is unabated till date”.
Also, the NNC pointed out that the Rainbow flag of Nagaland is a great manifestation of God choosing the Nagas by Himself and leading the Naga Nation. “For which God had given many signs and spoke through his servants that this was for him. For instance, God spoke through an American woman while the people from more than 200 countries gathered together in the yearly tabernacles feaast in jerusalem in 1999 and at that time they were praying for the Naga people” Thomas asserted. “I have chosen Naga people by myself. Before the return of Jesus Christ, it is my will that the Nagas are to be free, for which I have given their kingdom” quoted Thomas of a prophesy made by Lt Kepfelhou on August 13, 1974.
