This is one of the facts history of Christianity came and started in Naga hills nobody can't denied the foundation of the church why Molungyimsen used the first Church in Nagaland people may confuse or embarrassed why the church established in 1872 and the village Molungyimsen established in 24th Oct 1876 the reasons we found in this brief documentary video so let's all explore receive the blessing and cherish the legacy of Rev Dr E W Clark and we really appreciate to Hornbill TV for incredible achievement may the good Lord bless
150 years is not a joke..! With advancement of technology we are forgetting some hard facts. Even to imagine about that very time is truly out of our present world as it was God's work. We are what today is because of the gospel message that reached our soil through Dr EW Clark on 22nd Dec 1872 at Molungkimong village & there after continue to flourish every corner of Naga soil which is undeniable. Had he not step into Molungkimong village just think, there hadn't been such memorable remnants of he & his wife anywhere else..!! Hard facts yet I believe every true soul will agree.
Lima, there is no denying the fact that Christianity first came to Molungkimong. However, problem is there is no footprint in the history of the flourish of the good news from Molungkimong village after 1876. If there is one, I would love to know.
@@llemtur6596 Well, you just said it clearly..👍 Christianity first came to Molungkimong Village in 1872 and that's a Universal truth. That's all I was saying. ABAM just celebrated 150 years of Christianity so what more footprint we need other than that. God bless..
@@lima409 every soul will say that Christianity first came to Molungkimong village and there is no doubt about it and that is why ABAM celebrated 150 years of Christianity along with all the churches under its umbrella. But my question to you is, was Molungkimong able to sustain the good faith and take the good news to others villages.
@@llemtur6596 I don't understand why you hold so much against Molungkimong village. In my simple words I can only say, I am grateful that I am a Christian today as its only because of the message of Christ brought to us by Dr. EW Clark. Molungkimong Village still exist so as its people which means God's grace is bountiful & his love endures forever. We have come a long way as Christians, yet sometimes wonder do we as Christians truly living it out as one.. kindly leave me on this.. Thank you🙏
@@lima409 all I want you to understand is the history of Christianity in our land. It's true that the gospel of our Lord first set its foot in Molungkimong and it is also true that the continuity of Christianity was made possible because of the believers who moved and formed the village Molungyimsen. I don't have anything against you or Molungkimong but just want to set the records right and that is exactly what the video you are commenting under is about. As a true christian let us all learn to leave the deserved credit in its rightful place.
Never knew such a beautiful Christian village exists in Nagaland! From whose soil Mission works spread started and spread to the rest of Nagaland.why did Dr. Clark not start this Mission centre in Dekahaimnong ? Only now we see the truth of Christianity! Molungyimsen people-God and Truth and History is on your side, The world is watching , keep up with your faith and continue with mission works started by Dr.Clark.
God bless Molungkimong! God bless Molungyimsen! It takes two to clap! If the first church was not started in 1872 at Dekahaimong and if Dr. Clark had not continued with the expansion of Christianity by starting his mission works from the new village - Molungyimsen, Nagaland May not have become a Christian state today . May both the Villages have a blessed jubilee celebration . Dr. Clark was wise ! Today Impur Mission Centre, Angami Mission centre, Lotha Mission centre and many more mission centres established in Nagaland are the living testament of the great legacies of the mission works of Dr. Clark ,which he started from 1876! God bless all
There is no reason to confuse regarding Molungyimsen being the first Christian Church in Nagaland. I want to bring up this matter in this way. For instance, I started a school in Mokokchung but the school could not run well as there were certain obstacles that brought hindrances, So I decided to shift the school to Dimapur to meet my expectations which will be beneficial for me. Though I shifted the School to Dimapur, the date of establishment of the school will be the same as it was the same school I started in Mokokchung. It's just that the location was changed not the date. Likewise, the Christians in Molungkimong were persecuted as Mrs Mary Mead mentioned in her book," A corner in India" So, all the believers along with Dr. E. W Clark founded a new village which is Molungyimsen now and continued with the church work. This proves that Molungyimsen Baptist is the first church in Nagaland. God bless Molungyimsen.
With due respect from the villages like katsüng yimsen, Chungtia yimsen,longpa yimsen etc... I suggest to ask them, how they celebrates their Jubilee of church and also village peacefully with God's blessings...🙏🙏
ABAM has already seconded about the issue,but still,to share our own thoughts is interesting 😊.. so,lets try not to hurt out sentiments My opinion is,what if we could consult the different yimsen,yimsen villages about their Jubilee celebration both village n church...🙏🙏
@@sanenamer9706 No need to poke in if you don't know the issue because your narrative about the yimsen villages has got nothing to do with Molungyimsen Church. BTW ABAM states that the first Ao/Naga Church was established in Molungkimong in 1872 and that is true. But it doesn't say Molungkimong Baptist Church so try to understand that first.
Molungyimsen est in 1876 will celebrate 150 years of Christianity, but if I'm not mistaken 1876+150=2026 so how come they will celebrate this year(150 year...) Mmm...... According to Nagaland History, Molungkimong is the first christain village and Dr. E.W. Clark visited in 1872. So technically Molungkimong will be the first christain village right 😅 It seems someone is trying to change the Nagaland History 😂😂
Dziesengulie sachu you have a lot to learn about the history of Christianity in Nagaland. Anyway, for you to start with let us assume that Molungkimong village is the first christian village. Can you name the villages after 1876 where Christianity was planted by Molungkimong.
Dad: my son will be a great debater one day Son: i can because of unfiltered sperms from daddy!! (Sad 😩) It's not about lacked of knowledge but it's about lacked of sperms!! 🤣🤣
Dear people of Molungkimong and Molungyimsen, please don’t forget your Father village CHUNGTIA. Chungtia is the protector of both your village from your enemies. Molungyimsen village was founded under the 100% protection of Chungtia. Molungyimsen museum must have some picture of Chungtia village with a good description which says”Protector of Molungyimsen and protector of Christianity”
Advent of christianity and the First Church in Nagaland was established in 1872 . Dr. Clark , along with the elders of Dekahaimong and the believers relocated to a new village - Molungyimsen. So Mission centre was started from 1876 in the Naga Hills. How many christians remained at Dekahaimong then? Did Dekahaimong continue to exist as a Christian village , if all the babtized members left with Dr. Clark to the new village? Curious to know
No,not all the Christians left the village. There were 25 converts in Molungkimong. Only 15 families went to the new Village, out of which 6 were Christians and the 9 others were non-believers.
@@erzatzudir9213 There were only 24 converts (9 baptized at Sibsagor and 15 at Molungkimong) so where did the extra person come from? Which record is it written? Dr. Clark’s report to the ABFMS says that there was only 1 church and 10 church members in the Naga Hills in 1876 (i.e. at Molungyimsen). If there were converts at Molungkimong during that time then he would have surely written about it. This proves that there were no converts or practicing Christians in Molungkimong after 1876 till 1892.
To clear any misconceptions regarding this news report, here are some excerpts from the missionary records regarding Molungyimsen: The First Christian Village and the oldest Naga Church in the Naga Hills. To establish a village where the spirit of Christianity rather that that of war should reign, the Christians of Deka Haimong with the missionary moved a few miles westward to a vacant mountain crest and founded the village of Molung on the 24th of October 1876. Here in all the ages was the first Naga village to hold Christ as King, all praise to His name. - Dr. E.W. Clark. Most encouraging news comes from Molung. If we are to believe the reports, the whole village, practically, has become Christian. - S. A. Perrine. Impur. Molung (Molungyimsen) village is now very largely Christian; that is, the Christian element much predominates. It is fairly good ideal Christian village for the first in the tribe out of heathenism. - Rev. E.W. Clark. The church at Molung (Molungyimsen) village, the first church organized in all that mountain region. - Mrs. Mary Mead Clark. There are two churches in this tribe of Nagas, one at Merangkong, and one at this Molung (Molungyimsen) village. Rev. E.W. Clark. The year closing with December, 1892, presents no startling facts. One new church has been formed. It is in the village where the first baptisms were performed in the Naga Hills. It was because the Christians were persecuted so much in this Deka Haimong village that they were induced to form the new village Molung. But the chief persecutors have died; several Christians have gone there from other villages. These were formed into a church, and three were baptized, two of the three being chief men of the village. - Rev. E.W. Clark.
@sunep Imchen Hello Mr.Sunep Imjen . please ! do you have any reasoning capacity or so to say commonsense ? What is the use of being included in putu menten (council members) WITHOUT HIS OWN HEAD ATTACHED TO THE BODY ! THE TRUTH is ,in the midst of the Era of HEADHUNTING which was practice by every Naga people ( village). ,the brave christian believers knowing that they were going to be victim of HEADHUNTERS risk everything (even their lives ) just so to preserve and practice the Christian religion freely . Bro. @Sunep Imchen,Use your brain !
God bless Mulongyimsen. Spread the love of Jesus Christ. And thank you for bringing the gospel light. Let this 150 years celebration be a pleasing aroma in the sight of our Lord
"Truth alone triumphs" God is Truth and the only and everlasting Truth is none other than God. Twisted comments basing on fabricated verbal narratives are but shall disappear with the air he/she breathes. Molungkimong Church was established several times including Dec. 22/23, 1872 but were abolished due to the reasons best known to them. The present Molungkimong has been established during the year 1919 on the active initiative of teacher/Pastor Repalemba Nokdir from Molungyimsen village.
@Erza Tzudir Ok, chapel must have existed there but due to persecutions by Dekahaimong villagers and moreover the missionary who brought the gospel was ordered to leave before dawn, therefore that chapel coud not be continued or existed after that and about that Supongmeren's baptism record, it would be very enlightening for everyone if you could show to the world, and not that letter no so and so.....
@Narola Tzudir No this gives us a sense that the people leaving the village were being insulted and mocked upon by the Deka Haimong villagers. They thought that the handful of people with Dr. Clark couldn't establish the new village and would return but our Almighty God was with them and they survived all the ordeals and hurdles.
@Narola Tzudir Unlike your oral narratives we are just sharing the records. We don't stick to oral stories but written documents. Do you know what Oba Chungtia told Molungyimsen during that time? If you haven't then please see Chungtia Baptist Church Centenary Souvenir. It's clearly written that they were fed with rumours and lies regarding the establishment of Molungyimsen village.
“One new church has been formed. It is in the village where the first baptisms were performed in the Naga Hills. It was because the Christians were "persecuted" so much in this Deka Haimong village (Molungkimong) that they were induced to form the new village Molung (Molungyimsen). But the chief persecutors have died; several Christians have gone there from other villages. These were formed into a church, and three were baptized, two of the three being chief men of the village.” (Edward Winter Clark, “The Naga Mission: Rev. E. W. Clark,” Baptist Missionary Magazine, 73.8, 1893, p. 402). @Narola Tzudir are you indicating that Rev. Dr. E. W. Clark wrote about the persecution without really knowing the meaning of persecution?
,I give a big thank you to all the founders of Molungyimsen but I think it would have been much better if you lesson to the authority and follow the commands of dekahaimong village because today all your sacrifices, sufferings and determination to defend the Christian faith had become useless and meaningless in the minds of many people. Today the people are more interested to invent the truth rather than to discover the truth just to chase the fame.
In short! People :> WHERE did the First Naga Baptist Church Started? Records :> In Molungkimong. People:> Where is it now? Records :> In MOLUNGYIMSEN VILLAGE. PEOPLE :> When did the present MOLUNGKIMONG BAPTIST CHURCH STARTED/ ESTABLISHED ? Records :> In the year 1919 . People:>. Was there church in Molungyimsen village before Baptism took place in1878 ? Record : >Yes, ofcourse ther was Church in MOLUNGYIMSEN even before Baptism took place In 1878.
#Sanen Amer#@ maybe Dr. EW Clark Basin is of great historical value to your Village because it will definitely relate the historical facts now and then how your Village ( Molungkimong) gived out orders to take the WHITE Man( Missionary EW Clark ) back to where he came from ! and also the prosecution of the believers that follows ..
After thorough research n based on evidence, ABAM did not deny the fact that , Molungkimong did prosicuted the Christian which eventually induce the Christian believers to form a new Village called Molungyimsen in order to preserve and to freely practice the Christian Baptist religion.
@@jamir6813 Don't spread mere speculation stating tat it is fact n s based on evidence cuz it doesn't make any sense n wit wat prove r u proudly making such statement tat Christianity was in danger in da hands of Molungkimong cuz if it was true then Christianity wouldn't hav survived in our respected village till this date n there is no believers of animism, so tat speaks volume bout the importance n love for our religion. And i believe tat it was due to internal conflicts based on administration , due to which molungyimsen was formed n not because Christianity was at threat however it is true tat at first Christianity wasn't accepted by every one due to circumstances at tat time n doh it was a slow process but eventually majority of people r Christian's except for some immigrants or Dailywagers ... So get ur facts straight n don't b delusional. Period
Ezra Tzudir might have known the factitious fabricated story of a certain enteresred individuals while we are speaking historical facts and documents of those days hundred fifty years back Started and stopped can never be the first but start and continuance we are speaking Plse try to understand
People from the so-called holy land spreading false information. You know what, even Jesus was persecuted on this earth. Oh my. You people will not change.
The village was formed in the year 1876 and now they are about to celebrate 150 years Anni in 2022?? Are they even real?? Molungyimsen people should accept the truth/facts that Christianity first came in the year 1872 at Molungkimong village(Deka haimong).. Molungyimsen peeps why so Tara tare to celebrate 150 years ya...if you peeps consider your Village as the first Christian village then why not wait patiently and celebrate in the year 2026.. Let Molungkimong village and ABAM celebrate the 150 years Anni in 2022!!🤷🏽♂️
Molungyimsen doesn’t have any issue regarding the advent of Christianity at Molungkimong (Deka Haimong) so get your facts right. Its about the first Naga Church established by Dr. E.W. Clark in 1872 and that church is still alive in Molungyimsen. So accept that fact and don’t spread false information
@@dhiamung hello human.. uh if you are talking about the first Naga church established in 1872 then it's in molungkimong okay and the church is still alive in molungyimsem??? Does that even make any sense?? Churches is still alive in every corner of the world.. If you are talking about 1872 then it's MOLUNGKIMONG ... MARK IT📌 OKAY THAT THERE WAS NO THE SO CALLED MOLUNGYIMSEN IN THE YEAR 1872..so please don't blabber and show the world your foolishness..👍
@@BolBol23 Hello Mr... Carnal people always act and talk like the way you people do how can the people of Molungkimong claim first church be ashamed of it without doing anything waoooh people are watching over the misinformation, misinterpretation, given by Molungkimong know that yours is what? 1919 accept the truth
In this fight for the 'us first' , can we have a contest of who is more gracious, Christian-like and have their priorities sorted? Let the winner be the one who says " Okay, let your village church be recognised as the first church in Nagaland. For us, the fact that the Gospel was accepted and spread in our land is more important than the glory of being first". The irony and the tragedy of Christians fighting over a non-issue
People who were dancing to the made up tune of that villager starting to hate Molungyimsen and Hornbill TV when the legacy and facts with living testimony of missionary at Molungyimsen brought to the limelight.
Ke ke leke le beh ABAM is with Molungkimong on this issue. So is all the Ao villages including the village(not gonna mention) where one of you(molungyimsen) is working as a pastor. Funny how every other villagers and tribes knows the truth except for your own villagers. In order to win an argument, hotai, where is the written records eh hote be nu. While we all know that most of the knowledge and facts were passed down verbally. The argument I came across was " Shifting of the church". You guys acknowledge the fact that it was "shifted" From Molungkimong to molungyimsen and since it was already present in Molungkimong, you guys wanna take the tag of 1872 along with it too; though molungyimsen was formed in 1876. Why take the year alone? In that logic Molungyimsen should also be called Molungkimong nahoi? Kuch beh
Poor soul. ABAM is with Molungkimong? All Ao villages with Molungkimong? So what?? Are they gods? Do they have the power to change written records and accounts? The truth shall come out soon and humble pies shall be served galore.
Tell her to stand firmly on our historical facts and records which was written down by the pioneer of American Baptist Mission in Nagaland Dr. EW Clark. Fear not God will guide our way ,Amen.
@@sunepimchen4989 you need to study and research Nagaland History and the advent of Christianity in Nagaland. You're a frog inside a well in this debate.
Molungyimsen village is never the first christian village in Nagaland as claimed by this misleading video and also as claimed by Molungyimsen people and their supporters. If we proclaimed the slogan ' The first christian village in Nagaland' for Molungyimsen village which founded in 24th Oct 1876, then what about Molungkimong (Deka Haimong/ Haimong) village in which the first baptist church was already existed there since 1872. No harm, it is true that Mrs Clark used the word " first christian village" for Molungyimsen in her book ' a corner in india'. But the author used it for the sole reason that this village was founded with a prayer and demon worshipping was not performed like any other Ao villages formation in those olden days. Even today of 2022 AD, there are only a few numbers of Ao Naga villages in Nagaland which offered prayer during village formation. But it does not meant that Molungyimsen was the first village where baptist christian existed for the first time in Nagaland during Clark' era. And we all know the founders of Molungyimsen village on 24th Oct 1876 because it is founded from the then Molungkimong village in their own jurisdiction but against their wishes. The founders were mostly non- baptist christian. We knew the founders by name and their clans. And there were multiple reasons for its formation. It is true that, later on, Molungyimsen became the American Baptist Foreign Mission Centre which shifted to Impur in 1894. But how can one say that Molungyimsen is the first christian village in Nagaland? Please justify.
Molungkimong (Deka Haimong) is where the advent of Christianity took place and also the place where the Naga Church was founded but it is not the first Christian village. Not only Mary Mead but Dr. E.W. Clark and Rev. S.A. Perrine have named Molungyimsen as the first Christian village in the Naga Hills in their writings. Look into the records instead of spreading your own narrative. Moreover the first Christian village is not about offering prayers during village formation. Molungyimsen wasn’t called the first Christian village when it was formed but it was named only after all the villagers accepted the new faith, so again read the records before speaking out your mind.
@@dhiamung Plz refer the book , A corner in India by M M Clark, page-24. Here, even the point of prayer offered beside a fig tree at the new village site is never found in missionary record. It is only found in twisted record book locally written by Molungyimsen. Who will believed without documents that the small fig tree now showing near the controversial Litche tree at Molungyimsen was the fig tree beside which the new settlers offered a prayer on 24th Oct 1876, some 148 years back. But for sure, they did no expensive Demon worshipping at the new site as have been practising by the then Ao-Naga villages during new village formation. You know, as per 1876 Godhula's report (i don't have enough time and pages to write in detail here), there were 23 baptist believers at Deka Haimong village. The reporter himself was the pastor. And unlike today, there was only one baptist member in a family that time and there were no baptist church at all in any other parts of Nagaland. On 24th Oct 1876, only 15 families migrated from Deka Haimong (Molungkimong) to the new site. Out of 15 families, majority were non-baptist believers. So atleast a few christians were left behind at Dekahaimong alongwith pastor's family and Supongmeren , the assistant. And the remnant church continued and that church is still living today at Molungkimong (may refer ABAM and Molungkimong join research paper 1980). So it is unwise for you to give comments without supportive documents. Moreover, don't you know that the nickname 'Christian village' have already used by missionary in their record for Molungkimong (Deka Haimong) village even before the founding of Molungyimsen (Molungting) village on 24th Oct 1876. Then which village in Nagaland have used first as christian village by the missionary? Which village in Nagaland had first baptist christians and church ? Which missionary station come first in Nagaland basing on timeline: 1872-station (Molungkimong)? 1876-station (Molungyimsen}? 1894-station (Impur) ? To me , the village where the christian alongwith church exist first in Nagaland should be the first christian village and it is Molungkimong /Deka Haimong/simply Haimong in short. Not because of prayer offered at new site and not because of avoiding demon worshiping at new site. Furthermore, many missionary activities have already performed by the missionaries like Dr E W Clark and Godhula assisted by Supongmeren and the then village councils from this first station (1872) Deka Haimong/Haimong. (Am not comparing the numbers of work done by missionaries from different mission stations/mission centre in Nagaland). So , Molungyimsen is never the first christian village in Nagaland.
@@t.nungsangtemjenao7491 I haven’t come across 1876 Godhula's report and I don’t think you have it either so no need to make an excuse basing on your time & pages. Here are some points taken out from the Annual Reports of ABFMS to justify the truth about Molungyimsen. Mission to the Assamese, Sixty First Annual Report, 1875 “…Mr. Clark has had charge of the church, and directed the labors of the evangelist, especially of Godhula and Kunbar, besides doing the work of the press. The native preachers just named spent between three and four months in the Naga Hills, with what results we have not yet been advised. Mr. Clark writing under date of Oct. 26, expressed the fear that the Naga Church had suffered from a great defection, and that not more than twelve of the disciples would be found to have maintained their integrity…” Note: Before this report Godhula suspended two church members in Deka Haimong (Molungkimong) for taking part in a headhunting party and some of the first converts passed away so your claim of 23 baptist believers at Deka Haimong village in 1876 is false. Mission to the Assamese, Sixty Third Annual Report, 1877 “…The first migration to the new locality was not large, and those who preferred to remain at the old village made much more opposition than was expected. Godhula, my Assamese assistant, becoming alarmed at this opposition, left the hills at once… About two-thirds of the people of the old village have come here, and the Christian element is here the ruling one…” Note: This proves that Godhula left Molungkimong after the formation of Molungyimsen village. Assam Mission Statistics, 1876 as reported in 1877 by Dr. Clark from Molungyimsen. Station - Haimoung No. of Organized Church - 1 Church Members - 10 Note: This statistics was given by Dr. Clark from Molungyimsen to the ABFMS where it shows that there was only 1 church and 10 church members in the Naga Hills which was at Molungyimsen. So was there a church at Molungkimong during that time? Lastly, it is clearly said that “this fig tree is in memory of…” so your wild allegation of Molungyimsen claiming the fig tree as the one 146 years ago (not 148) is meaningless. Read the plaque given beside the fig tree to know its story.
Rightfully documented report. Much needed informations to clear the confusion about "Christianity in Naga Hills". Thank you so much. Keep up the good work.
A news channel in Nagaland sharing misinformative news. Molungkimong is the first chriatian village. We all knew that. Even molungyimsen was founded by the majority of nonbelievers. There's a huge difference between 1872 and 1876. A news channel should send someone more educated reporter. Not an entertainer.
In a village ,if the believers are prosecuted so much by the NON believers even up to the extent of ordering the believers by the village authority to take the Missionary back to where he came from , this village cannot be called as The First Christian Village! It's very true that Christianity first reached the beautiful village of Molungkimong in the year 1872 , but the believers were prosicuted by the non believers of Molungkimong so much and not only that ,the village authority even give out orders to take the Missionary i.e Dr.EW Clark back to where he came from . This let's the believers and some non believers who were willing to give up everything just so to preserve the Christianity ,to form The first Christian Village (Molungyimsen ) in Nagaland .
Persecution exists today. But God's church will remain. During grouping time there was no church in Nagaland. But we still count those days. People worshipped in their convenient way and we still count those days. Fear God
@@sunepimchen4989 yes God church will remain its true and one should fear God and that's very true . But please learn the History of Nagaland first so that people will stop laughing at your meaningless comments! Bye.

To the people of Molungyimsen please stop giving false story. Molungkimong is the first Christian Village. Dr. E.W Clark visited in 1872 it's crystal clear no matter how much you try announcing in social media.. it's just a waste of money. Why trying to change our History..??Do you think Lychee tree from 1872 will be still there?? Are you serious?? Please stop.
Akali Jimo, you have a lot to learn about the history of Christianity in Nagaland. Anyway, for you to start with let us assume that Molungkimong village is the first christian village. Can you name the villages after 1876 where Christianity was planted by Molungkimong.
Nagaland Baptist church council officially accepts 1872 as the first Baptist church established in Nagaland which was in Dekahaimong which is called Molungkimong in mokokchung district. Molungyimsen village was established in the year 1876 and thereby claiming to be first established church by them does not arise according to my limited wisdom. Moreover the record clearly shows that the new village was established comprising both by non Christians and Christians so the question of first Christian village does not arise.
The first Christian village wasn't named during the formation of Molungyimsen but in the later years when all the villagers accepted the new faith. And the first Naga Church established in Dekahaimong (Molungkimong) in 1872 is still alive in Molungyimsen.
#Diamung, Molungyimsen can claim the tag of first church if they use the name Molungkimong in their church. Because the first church and christian village is Molungkimong 1872.
Waooo I love this village - Dr. Clark and his Christian team village - First Naga Christian village -Christian pilgrimage village -Naga Educational heritage village Land of -land marks and significant of Dr. Clark. Acts 4:12." Since there is only one truth that saves, truth is more important than peace.
What?Naga christian village?Molungyimsen was separated from Molungkimong in the year 1876 on 24th October. all together 15 family went to form Molungyimsen. Only six Christian and 9 non Christian. How can you say its first Christian village?shame on you.
@@sunepimchen4989 that's the consequences of of spreading fake news and false claim.. High time for AO community to understand the roots and history of first Christianity in Nagaland..
I'm sure there must be a reason why Molungkimong was and still is, for the longest time and "till date" considered the place where Christianity first birthed, in every article and academic books available. It's irrelevant for you to jolt and try your hands at changing the history of our state. What happens to the bygone jubilee souvenirs that marked the history of Molungyimsen? Hasn't it been done and dusted? It has been engraved in the stars. "Light at the end of the tunnel", I consider this fabrication the 'tunnel' before the assured light which is the sesquicentennial. No ill will whatsoever, I just wish we could grandly celebrate the coming of Christianity together.
They are not claiming about the Advent of Christianity but they are trying to bring out the truth about the Church and the celebration of 150 years of First Naga Church in Naga Hill's which is still in Molungyimsen Village.
If we go by the facts, they don't get to celebrate their yim's sesquicentennial until only later. You're saying something, but meaning something else. When there is too much flactuation in decision making (jubilees- evidences) in any standard organization, management, grouping or assembly, people refuse to take them seriously. You've celebrated all the 25th to 125th jubilees, how are you suddenly claiming all of them to be a mistake? What about the blessings bestowed upon you during those celebrations; they just can't evaporate into thin air. How fruitful could filing a case against ABAM be for Aoer? This is deception! Literally everything amalgamates, so stop beating around the bush!
Firstly, the first Church in Naga Hill's was called "The Naga Church" which was established in 1872 at Deka Haimong (Molungkimong) but from 1876 the Church at Molung (Molungyimsen) was referred as 'The Naga Church' by Rev. Dr. E.W. Clark and other missionaries. So the fact is, there was no Church at Deka Haimong (Molungkimong) after 1876. Secondly, Rev. Dr. E.W. Clark was considered as British Spy and a colonizer and the Christian's were persecuted by the Non-Christians at Deka Haimong (Molungkimong) village. So Rev. Dr. E.W. Clark, some Christian's and few Non-Christian's established a New Village called 'Molung' ( Molungyimsen). The Church at Molung (Molungyimsen) was called 'The Naga Church' which was 'The First Church in Naga Hill's'. It was from this Church that Angami and Lotha Mission Fields were started. Thirdly, the Church at Deka Haimong (Molungkimong) was established in 1892 which was called as 'Deka Haimong Church'. Again in the year 1919 another Church was established at the same village and that time it was called 'Molungyimchen Church'. Moreover, the fact is Molungyimsen had been celebrating Jubilees according to ABAM's resolutions and even this year they will be celebrating Sesquicentennial according to ABAM resolution. Remember, when you say Molungyimsen's Jubilee was a mistake you are also accusing ABAM as well. Please check the ABAM's resolutions.
Believers who worshipped God in their hearts and took prayer fellowship daily in their old church at Mulongkimong after Dr.Clark leave with the Nonbelievers of Mulongyimsen only to start his mission center. because of those unsung believers who were left at Mulongkimong, we are here today, they might be crying for disowning them by today's fake made-up stories. But the truth will justify them. Mulongkimong 1872 and Mulongyimsen 1876. Who will believe it?
Christians at Molungkimong after 1876? There wasn't any till 1892. And what are the contributions of those believers from Molungkimong that led us here today? Which book are you quoting this from? Have you by any chance seen a letter or a report written by Dr. E.W. Clark? Judging by your comments it seems you have been led astray by some oral narratives and I pity you. If you want to know the history of the Naga Church then better read books and written records.
@@dhiamung Written records cannot judge the believer's faith who were left by Clark and nonbelievers of Mulongyimsen. We know that they took church regularly. Yea reorganization of churches happens from time to time because of the problems and even today many churches face problems and reorganize. But the blood of Jesus once shed for the believer's life can't be removed by your fake written papers. Read Kilep Taküm Zülo book.
@@sunepimchen4989 What do you understand by the below given written records left by Dr Clark? “One new church has been formed. It is in the village where the first baptisms were performed in the Naga Hills. It was because the Christians were "persecuted" so much in this Deka Haimong village (Molungkimong) that they were induced to form the new village Molung (Molungyimsen). But the chief persecutors have died; several Christians have gone there from other villages. These were formed into a church, and three were baptized, two of the three being chief men of the village.” (Edward Winter Clark, “The Naga Mission: Rev. E. W. Clark,” Baptist Missionary Magazine, 73.8, 1893, p. 402). "There are two churches in this tribe of Nagas, one at Merangkong, and one at this Molung village (Molungyimsen)." Edward Winter Clark, "Mission to the Nagas" Amguri, April 1, 1884.
If the Clarks’ ‘only child’ died at age four, from where great great grandchildren came? Did they adopt after returning to America or later have more children of their own?
Molungyimsen : The first Christian Village in Nagaland. Molungkimong : The first Christian Church established in Nagaland. ( Truth be told: But the Christian's were prosicuted by the non believers in Molungkimong so much that they were inducee to form a new Village i.e Molungyimsen along with Dr. EW Clark in 1876 October 24th in order to keep and preserve and also to practice the Christian religion freely in the New Village i.e Molungyimsen.
Molungyimsen: the first mission center of Dr.Clerk, where education and his outreach mission started. But Molungkimong is the first Christian village and the first church established. Sir, you know what, Molungyimsen was founded by nonbelievers with Dr.clerk so that they could get the power to rule which was once denied to them.

I don't belong to Ao tribe but ever since we were kids, we've only known about Molungkimong being the first Baptist Church. And how comes Molungyimsen people are celebrating 150 years? And i want to know whether ABAM have approved molungyimsen villagers to celebrate 150 years of Christianity? If so please justify i want to know.And by reading Erza Tzudir's comments, it seems legit because three to four people are countering him/her in the comment section where Erza is throwing facts all alone. It's like Foxes tryna fight a lion. 😅✌️ Good luck.
Brother m belongs to Ao tribe and ever since when we were kids we heard and told by forefathers as well as by ABAM and NBCC told about Molungyimsen the first church in Naga hills based on written records by Clark and all the pioneer missionary's that is the facts you may not go through the records or may be just heard some oral narrations from the people of Molungkimong so its not Molungkimong but the first church in Naga hills e.i MOLUNGYIMSEN hope by now you wouldn't forget and Tell the truth to the people around us may His grace be with you
The truth is, Dr.Clerk was escorted by 60 warriors while coming to Mulongkimong. He was comfortable in the village until those powermongers who were denied power at Molungkimong for reason best known to them, created division using the name of religion and brainwashed Dr.Clerk and took him promising him to provide the land which he was requesting, as he wanted to start his mission center at the earliest. Just to have power or to rule by them in the new village they shifted to a new place. It's a political issue. Even an original citizen of Mulongyimsen was excommunicated for confessing the truth.
@sunep Imchen Hello Mr.Sunep Imjen . please ! do you have any reasoning capacity or so to say commonsense ? What is the use of being included in putu menten (council members) WITHOUT HIS OWN HEAD ATTACHED TO THE BODY ! The TRUTH is ,in the midst of the Era of HEADHUNTING which was practice by every Naga people ( village). ,the brave christian believers knowing that they were going to be victim of HEADHUNTERS risk everything (even their lives ) just so to preserve and practice the Christian religion freely . Bro. @Sunep Imchen,Use your brain !
Actually your knowledge about First Naga Church should be like this, it was established in 1872 in Molungkimong but in 1876 that Church was Shifted to Molungyimsen "The First Christian Village in Naga Hill's" because there is no record about the Church in Molungkimong after 1876.
Maybe you read some books by some controversial writers. Erza is spreading false narratives and recently made-up stories. Check the excerpt of some records that I shared here to clear your misconception.
#Annie. Molungyimsen should know their birthday first. Church stays in our hearts, not the structure. Believers were there @Molungkimong when power mongers leave molungkimong where they were denied power by elder councilors. It's a political issue, not a mere emotional made-up story.
I'm happy that this time, they didn't told reporters that their church was built by dr clark in 1876 🤣🤣🤣 A little advice to TV channels or youtuber in Nagaland, before doing a documentary or reports, pls do a little research first about the fact. 🙏🙏🙏
You can't even prove them (Hornbill Tv ) wrong either , because they have all the necessary facts an records of the history of the Down of Christianity in Nagaland .

Supongmeren was the first Baptist from Molungkimong village. He was baptized on Oct 1,1871 at Sibsagar in the river Dikhu. On December 10, 1872, nine people from the village were baptised at Sibsagar and another 15 on December 22 at Molungkimong village. Though Supongmeren and 9 others from Molungkimong Village were baptized first at Sibsagar on Oct 1, 1871 and Nov 10, 1872 consequently, the ABAM had decided that the first baptism will be dated 22 Dec 1872 as the latter 15 villagers were baptized in Molungkimong village itself by Dr. EW Clark. It has also been mentioned that the first baptism at Molungyimsen took place on June 2, 1878, two years after they established their village. Also the name Molung-yimsen means New Village. A child cannot say he was birthed before his father.
For your reference you can read about Supongmeren's baptism from- "Mary Mead. Letter to J.N Murdock. Dt. October 5,1871,BMM, 1872, January,p.24; Letter from Mr. Clark, Dt. August 10,1872 in BMM, December 1872; P.T. Philip, The Growth of Baptist Churches in Nagaland.p.51; All is Light! All is Light, Naga Mission and Church Record.p.18 About Molungyimsen 's baptism, refer to "Assam Mission Statistics for the Year 1878, BMM, 1879, July,p 231." You're welcome.
If a statement is based on historical facts and records one cannot prove it wrong or fake just by SAYING it's misleading or fake, people need evidence to support their claims , which you don't have!
When people do something which is facts please accept it and cherish it's not done by insane persons but it's done by reasonable persons based on original records and can't be erase in Church history
Molungkimong is the first Christian village. Dr.clerk came to molungkimong in 1872, so molungkimong is the first Christian village. In 1876, molungyimsen was founded by a group of people where most of the villagers were nonbelievers. ruclips.net/video/M_klfPUu7O8/видео.html

Halo.... you are still in confusion frame of mind after explaining everything in detail. None of them were believers initially but people who accepted Christianity those people and some non believers decided to build a new village thats is called molungyimsen and from there the Christianity flourished among the Nagas. So Molungyimsen is known as the first Christian village. Got it??
First Christianity village Molungyimsen kwa??hahaha shame on you guys and who tf uploaded this video,must delete before the account get suspend 😌 99.9% state/country etc... knows that First Christianity village is MOLUNGKIMONG not Molungyimsen so please stop spamming all over the media...... I have one question that how much money did you guys took just to say First Christianity MOLUNGYIMSEN huh??? Ans=?? Dr. Clark and his wife might be laughing at you guys from the heaven :0
Ya I heard that it was planted by the Dr. Clark servant (Ganur or kanur) not by Clark🤔 And even though Ganur grandson got fired for saying truth 🤣😆 Very funny Villagers Tsüngremi maneni moajangma AMEN Molungyimsenpur tem💔🤣💩
However the story is made up around this litchi tree by haters , God is still doing wonders at Molungyimsen through this significant works of missionaries .
We all knew that a misunderstanding arose between the councils, the older rulers didn't give the power to the younger generation for reason best known to them, so some believers from younger generations brainwashed Dr.Clerk as an excuse, moved to a new place promising him to give the land which he was asking. It's a political issue.
What brainwashing are you on about? I'm telling you, it's you who has been brainwashed. Dr. Clark along with the very few handful of believers were subjected to scrutiny which was why they were forced to leave Molungkimong

What a shame..!! Molyungyimsen was formed in 1876 and now they're declaring to celebrate 150 years jubilee? 🤣🤣Molyungyimsen you have 4 years to honor 150years of jubilee, why don't you make up? Outside of your Church it is mentioned that your village was established in 1872,when in reality your Church was formed in 1876,What a logic 🤣🤣and I've come across in some Clark's documents in which he clearly mentioned that he was not happy with the villagers in molyungyimsen, so he decided to get away, and one early morning he moved out along with his horse . However, some villagers saw and followed him and cut off the bridge when he was in the middle of the bridge,why talk of Prosecution in Molungkimong while he was mistreated by villagers in molyungyimsen ?
Thankyou hornbill TV... But i hope and pray that this documentary will not create more and more Issues.... Despite persecution,Dr Clark could overcome his mission works all those four years ie. 1872 to 76 in Molungkimong and I'm glad that has life was 100%saved when he was in Molungkimong... The word "persecution"is not a new word,even today Christian missionaries and christians are persecuted even today in different parts of the world and in India as well... God bless Molungkimong and Molungyimsen.. Dr Clark might have studied Missiology where he learn to establish more n more churches 🙏🙏
This is one of the facts history of Christianity came and started in Naga hills nobody can't denied the foundation of the church why Molungyimsen used the first Church in Nagaland people may confuse or embarrassed why the church established in 1872 and the village Molungyimsen established in 24th Oct 1876 the reasons we found in this brief documentary video so let's all explore receive the blessing and cherish the legacy of Rev Dr E W Clark and we really appreciate to Hornbill TV for incredible achievement may the good Lord bless
150 years is not a joke..! With advancement of technology we are forgetting some hard facts. Even to imagine about that very time is truly out of our present world as it was God's work. We are what today is because of the gospel message that reached our soil through Dr EW Clark on 22nd Dec 1872 at Molungkimong village & there after continue to flourish every corner of Naga soil which is undeniable. Had he not step into Molungkimong village just think, there hadn't been such memorable remnants of he & his wife anywhere else..!! Hard facts yet I believe every true soul will agree.
Lima, there is no denying the fact that Christianity first came to Molungkimong. However, problem is there is no footprint in the history of the flourish of the good news from Molungkimong village after 1876. If there is one, I would love to know.
@@llemtur6596 Well, you just said it clearly..👍 Christianity first came to Molungkimong Village in 1872 and that's a Universal truth. That's all I was saying. ABAM just celebrated 150 years of Christianity so what more footprint we need other than that. God bless..
@@lima409 every soul will say that Christianity first came to Molungkimong village and there is no doubt about it and that is why ABAM celebrated 150 years of Christianity along with all the churches under its umbrella.

@@llemtur6596 I don't understand why you hold so much against Molungkimong village. In my simple words I can only say, I am grateful that I am a Christian today as its only because of the message of Christ brought to us by Dr. EW Clark.

We have come a long way as Christians, yet sometimes wonder do we as Christians truly living it out as one.. kindly leave me on this.. Thank you🙏
@@lima409 all I want you to understand is the history of Christianity in our land. It's true that the gospel of our Lord first set its foot in Molungkimong and it is also true that the continuity of Christianity was made possible because of the believers who moved and formed the village Molungyimsen. I don't have anything against you or Molungkimong but just want to set the records right and that is exactly what the video you are commenting under is about. As a true christian let us all learn to leave the deserved credit in its rightful place.
Never knew such a beautiful Christian village exists in Nagaland! From whose soil Mission works spread started and spread to the rest of Nagaland.why did Dr. Clark not start this Mission centre in Dekahaimnong ? Only now we see the truth of Christianity!
Molungyimsen people-God and Truth and History is on your side, The world is watching , keep up with your faith and continue with mission works started by Dr.Clark.
❤️❤️
Alem kongkumer yes very true
Truly appreciate for understand the truth God bless you
God bless Molungkimong!
God bless Molungyimsen!
It takes two to clap!
If the first church was not started in 1872 at Dekahaimong and if Dr. Clark had not continued with the expansion of Christianity by starting his mission works from the new village - Molungyimsen, Nagaland May not have become a Christian state today .
May both the Villages have a blessed jubilee celebration .
Dr. Clark was wise !
Today Impur Mission Centre, Angami Mission centre, Lotha Mission centre and many more mission centres established in Nagaland are the living testament of the great legacies of the mission works of Dr. Clark ,which he started from 1876!
God bless all
There is no reason to confuse regarding Molungyimsen being the first Christian Church in Nagaland. I want to bring up this matter in this way. For instance, I started a school in Mokokchung but the school could not run well as there were certain obstacles that brought hindrances, So I decided to shift the school to Dimapur to meet my expectations which will be beneficial for me. Though I shifted the School to Dimapur, the date of establishment of the school will be the same as it was the same school I started in Mokokchung. It's just that the location was changed not the date. Likewise, the Christians in Molungkimong were persecuted as Mrs Mary Mead mentioned in her book," A corner in India" So, all the believers along with Dr. E. W Clark founded a new village which is Molungyimsen now and continued with the church work. This proves that Molungyimsen Baptist is the first church in Nagaland. God bless Molungyimsen.
Very true. And to add one more point, creation of Molungyimsen village was in 1876 but the church was created in 1872.
With due respect from the villages like katsüng yimsen, Chungtia yimsen,longpa yimsen etc... I suggest to ask them, how they celebrates their Jubilee of church and also village peacefully with God's blessings...🙏🙏
@@sanenamer9706 don't compare those villages with Molungyimsen. Your point of view is completely a different story.
ABAM has already seconded about the issue,but still,to share our own thoughts is interesting 😊.. so,lets try not to hurt out sentiments
My opinion is,what if we could consult the different yimsen,yimsen villages about their Jubilee celebration both village n church...🙏🙏
@@sanenamer9706 No need to poke in if you don't know the issue because your narrative about the yimsen villages has got nothing to do with Molungyimsen Church. BTW ABAM states that the first Ao/Naga Church was established in Molungkimong in 1872 and that is true. But it doesn't say Molungkimong Baptist Church so try to understand that first.
Molungyimsen est in 1876 will celebrate 150 years of Christianity, but if I'm not mistaken 1876+150=2026 so how come they will celebrate this year(150 year...) Mmm...... According to Nagaland History, Molungkimong is the first christain village and Dr. E.W. Clark visited in 1872. So technically Molungkimong will be the first christain village right 😅
It seems someone is trying to change the Nagaland History 😂😂
👍👍👍
Dziesengulie sachu you have a lot to learn about the history of Christianity in Nagaland. Anyway, for you to start with let us assume that Molungkimong village is the first christian village. Can you name the villages after 1876 where Christianity was planted by Molungkimong.

Advent of christianity and the First Church in Nagaland was established in 1872 . Dr. Clark , along with the elders of Dekahaimong and the believers relocated to a new village - Molungyimsen. So Mission centre was started from 1876 in the Naga Hills. How many christians remained at Dekahaimong then? Did Dekahaimong continue to exist as a Christian village , if all the babtized members left with Dr. Clark to the new village? Curious to know
No,not all the Christians left the village. There were 25 converts in Molungkimong. Only 15 families went to the new Village, out of which 6 were Christians and the 9 others were non-believers.
@@erzatzudir9213 There were only 24 converts (9 baptized at Sibsagor and 15 at Molungkimong) so where did the extra person come from? Which record is it written? Dr. Clark’s report to the ABFMS says that there was only 1 church and 10 church members in the Naga Hills in 1876 (i.e. at Molungyimsen). If there were converts at Molungkimong during that time then he would have surely written about it. This proves that there were no converts or practicing Christians in Molungkimong after 1876 till 1892.
@@dhiamung may be he (Erza Tzudir) might have included Supongmeren....!!!
@@supznaga859 Yes you're right. This people are so desperate to include him so they are trying to rewrite history. Feel sorry for them.
To clear any misconceptions regarding this news report, here are some excerpts from the missionary records regarding Molungyimsen: The First Christian Village and the oldest Naga Church in the Naga Hills.
To establish a village where the spirit of Christianity rather that that of war should reign, the Christians of Deka Haimong with the missionary moved a few miles westward to a vacant mountain crest and founded the village of Molung on the 24th of October 1876. Here in all the ages was the first Naga village to hold Christ as King, all praise to His name. - Dr. E.W. Clark.
Most encouraging news comes from Molung. If we are to believe the reports, the whole village, practically, has become Christian. - S. A. Perrine. Impur.
Molung (Molungyimsen) village is now very largely Christian; that is, the Christian element much predominates. It is fairly good ideal Christian village for the first in the tribe out of heathenism. - Rev. E.W. Clark.
The church at Molung (Molungyimsen) village, the first church organized in all that mountain region. - Mrs. Mary Mead Clark.
There are two churches in this tribe of Nagas, one at Merangkong, and one at this Molung (Molungyimsen) village. Rev. E.W. Clark.
The year closing with December, 1892, presents no startling facts. One new church has been formed. It is in the village where the first baptisms were performed in the Naga Hills. It was because the Christians were persecuted so much in this Deka Haimong village that they were induced to form the new village Molung. But the chief persecutors have died; several Christians have gone there from other villages. These were formed into a church, and three were baptized, two of the three being chief men of the village. - Rev. E.W. Clark.

"Truth alone triumphs" God is Truth and the only and everlasting Truth is none other than God. Twisted comments basing on fabricated verbal narratives are but shall disappear with the air he/she breathes. Molungkimong Church was established several times including Dec. 22/23, 1872 but were abolished due to the reasons best known to them. The present Molungkimong has been established during the year 1919 on the active initiative of teacher/Pastor Repalemba Nokdir from Molungyimsen village.
@Erza Tzudir Ok, chapel must have existed there but due to persecutions by Dekahaimong villagers and moreover the missionary who brought the gospel was ordered to leave before dawn, therefore that chapel coud not be continued or existed after that and about that Supongmeren's baptism record, it would be very enlightening for everyone if you could show to the world, and not that letter no so and so.....
@Narola Tzudir You'll find it in Laishir Mungchen. Do read it, it has first hand information from living witnesses.
@Narola Tzudir No this gives us a sense that the people leaving the village were being insulted and mocked upon by the Deka Haimong villagers. They thought that the handful of people with Dr. Clark couldn't establish the new village and would return but our Almighty God was with them and they survived all the ordeals and hurdles.
@Narola Tzudir Unlike your oral narratives we are just sharing the records. We don't stick to oral stories but written documents. Do you know what Oba Chungtia told Molungyimsen during that time? If you haven't then please see Chungtia Baptist Church Centenary Souvenir. It's clearly written that they were fed with rumours and lies regarding the establishment of Molungyimsen village.
“One new church has been formed. It is in the village where the first baptisms were performed in the Naga Hills. It was because the Christians were "persecuted" so much in this Deka Haimong village (Molungkimong) that they were induced to form the new village Molung (Molungyimsen). But the chief persecutors have died; several Christians have gone there from other villages. These were formed into a church, and three were baptized, two of the three being chief men of the village.” (Edward Winter Clark, “The Naga Mission: Rev. E. W. Clark,” Baptist Missionary Magazine, 73.8, 1893, p. 402).
@Narola Tzudir are you indicating that Rev. Dr. E. W. Clark wrote about the persecution without really knowing the meaning of persecution?
@Narola Tzudir don't try to track in oba Chungtia
,I give a big thank you to all the founders of Molungyimsen but I think it would have been much better if you lesson to the authority and follow the commands of dekahaimong village because today all your sacrifices, sufferings and determination to defend the Christian faith had become useless and meaningless in the minds of many people. Today the people are more interested to invent the truth rather than to discover the truth just to chase the fame.
In short!
People :> WHERE did the First Naga Baptist Church Started?
Records :> In Molungkimong.

All Ao Baptist Churches r under ABAM. Their verdict based on truth n evidence is Final as of now
After thorough research n based on evidence, ABAM did not deny the fact that , Molungkimong did prosicuted the Christian which eventually induce the Christian believers to form a new Village called Molungyimsen in order to preserve and to freely practice the Christian Baptist religion.
@@jamir6813 Don't spread mere speculation stating tat it is fact n s based on evidence cuz it doesn't make any sense n wit wat prove r u proudly making such statement tat Christianity was in danger in da hands of Molungkimong cuz if it was true then Christianity wouldn't hav survived in our respected village till this date n there is no believers of animism, so tat speaks volume bout the importance n love for our religion. And i believe tat it was due to internal conflicts based on administration , due to which molungyimsen was formed n not because Christianity was at threat however it is true tat at first Christianity wasn't accepted by every one due to circumstances at tat time n doh it was a slow process but eventually majority of people r Christian's except for some immigrants or Dailywagers ... So get ur facts straight n don't b delusional. Period

Ke ke leke le beh ABAM is with Molungkimong on this issue. So is all the Ao villages including the village(not gonna mention) where one of you(molungyimsen) is working as a pastor. Funny how every other villagers and tribes knows the truth except for your own villagers.
In order to win an argument, hotai, where is the written records eh hote be nu. While we all know that most of the knowledge and facts were passed down verbally.
The argument I came across was " Shifting of the church". You guys acknowledge the fact that it was "shifted" From Molungkimong to molungyimsen and since it was already present in Molungkimong, you guys wanna take the tag of 1872 along with it too; though molungyimsen was formed in 1876.
Why take the year alone? In that logic Molungyimsen should also be called Molungkimong nahoi? Kuch beh
Poor soul. ABAM is with Molungkimong? All Ao villages with Molungkimong? So what?? Are they gods? Do they have the power to change written records and accounts? The truth shall come out soon and humble pies shall be served galore.

Tell your mother not to let her villagers spread false information about the formation of the church.
Tell her to stand firmly on our historical facts and records which was written down by the pioneer of American Baptist Mission in Nagaland Dr. EW Clark.
Fear not God will guide our way ,Amen.
@@sunepimchen4989 you need to study and research Nagaland History and the advent of Christianity in Nagaland.
You're a frog inside a well in this debate.
Molungyimsen village is never the first christian village in Nagaland as claimed by this misleading video and also as claimed by Molungyimsen people and their supporters.
If we proclaimed the slogan ' The first christian village in Nagaland' for Molungyimsen village which founded in 24th Oct 1876, then what about Molungkimong (Deka Haimong/ Haimong) village in which the first baptist church was already existed there since 1872.
No harm, it is true that Mrs Clark used the word " first christian village" for Molungyimsen in her book ' a corner in india'. But the author used it for the sole reason that this village was founded with a prayer and demon worshipping was not performed like any other Ao villages formation in those olden days.
Even today of 2022 AD, there are only a few numbers of Ao Naga villages in Nagaland which offered prayer during village formation. But it does not meant that Molungyimsen was the first village where baptist christian existed for the first time in Nagaland during Clark' era.
And we all know the founders of Molungyimsen village on 24th Oct 1876 because it is founded from the then Molungkimong village in their own jurisdiction but against their wishes. The founders were mostly non- baptist christian. We knew the founders by name and their clans. And there were multiple reasons for its formation.
It is true that, later on, Molungyimsen became the American Baptist Foreign Mission Centre which shifted to Impur in 1894. But how can one say that Molungyimsen is the first christian village in Nagaland? Please justify.
Molungkimong (Deka Haimong) is where the advent of Christianity took place and also the place where the Naga Church was founded but it is not the first Christian village. Not only Mary Mead but Dr. E.W. Clark and Rev. S.A. Perrine have named Molungyimsen as the first Christian village in the Naga Hills in their writings. Look into the records instead of spreading your own narrative.
Moreover the first Christian village is not about offering prayers during village formation. Molungyimsen wasn’t called the first Christian village when it was formed but it was named only after all the villagers accepted the new faith, so again read the records before speaking out your mind.
@@dhiamung
Plz refer the book , A corner in India by M M Clark, page-24.
Here, even the point of prayer offered beside a fig tree at the new village site is never found in missionary record. It is only found in twisted record book locally written by Molungyimsen.
Who will believed without documents that the small fig tree now showing near the controversial Litche tree at Molungyimsen was the fig tree beside which the new settlers offered a prayer on 24th Oct 1876, some 148 years back.
But for sure, they did no expensive Demon worshipping at the new site as have been practising by the then Ao-Naga villages during new village formation.
You know, as per 1876 Godhula's report (i don't have enough time and pages to write in detail here), there were 23 baptist believers at Deka Haimong village. The reporter himself was the pastor. And unlike today, there was only one baptist member in a family that time and there were no baptist church at all in any other parts of Nagaland.
On 24th Oct 1876, only 15 families migrated from Deka Haimong (Molungkimong) to the new site.
Out of 15 families, majority were non-baptist believers. So atleast a few christians were left behind at Dekahaimong alongwith pastor's family and Supongmeren , the assistant. And the remnant church continued and that church is still living today at Molungkimong (may refer ABAM and Molungkimong join research paper 1980).
So it is unwise for you to give comments without supportive documents.
Moreover, don't you know that the nickname 'Christian village' have already used by missionary in their record for Molungkimong (Deka Haimong) village even before the founding of Molungyimsen (Molungting) village on 24th Oct 1876.
Then which village in Nagaland have used first as christian village by the missionary?
Which village in Nagaland had first baptist christians and church ?
Which missionary station come first in Nagaland basing on timeline:
1872-station (Molungkimong)?
1876-station (Molungyimsen}?
1894-station (Impur) ?
To me , the village where the christian alongwith church exist first in Nagaland should be the first christian village and it is Molungkimong /Deka Haimong/simply Haimong in short. Not because of prayer offered at new site and not because of avoiding demon worshiping at new site.
Furthermore, many missionary activities have already performed by the missionaries like Dr E W Clark and Godhula assisted by Supongmeren and the then village councils from this first station (1872) Deka Haimong/Haimong.
(Am not comparing the numbers of work done by missionaries from different mission stations/mission centre in Nagaland).
So , Molungyimsen is never the first christian village in Nagaland.
@@t.nungsangtemjenao7491 I haven’t come across 1876 Godhula's report and I don’t think you have it either so no need to make an excuse basing on your time & pages.
Here are some points taken out from the Annual Reports of ABFMS to justify the truth about Molungyimsen.
Mission to the Assamese, Sixty First Annual Report, 1875
“…Mr. Clark has had charge of the church, and directed the labors of the evangelist, especially of Godhula and Kunbar, besides doing the work of the press. The native preachers just named spent between three and four months in the Naga Hills, with what results we have not yet been advised. Mr. Clark writing under date of Oct. 26, expressed the fear that the Naga Church had suffered from a great defection, and that not more than twelve of the disciples would be found to have maintained their integrity…”
Note: Before this report Godhula suspended two church members in Deka Haimong (Molungkimong) for taking part in a headhunting party and some of the first converts passed away so your claim of 23 baptist believers at Deka Haimong village in 1876 is false.
Mission to the Assamese, Sixty Third Annual Report, 1877
“…The first migration to the new locality was not large, and those who preferred to remain at the old village made much more opposition than was expected. Godhula, my Assamese assistant, becoming alarmed at this opposition, left the hills at once… About two-thirds of the people of the old village have come here, and the Christian element is here the ruling one…”
Note: This proves that Godhula left Molungkimong after the formation of Molungyimsen village.
Assam Mission Statistics, 1876 as reported in 1877 by Dr. Clark from Molungyimsen.
Station - Haimoung
No. of Organized Church - 1
Church Members - 10
Note: This statistics was given by Dr. Clark from Molungyimsen to the ABFMS where it shows that there was only 1 church and 10 church members in the Naga Hills which was at Molungyimsen. So was there a church at Molungkimong during that time?
Lastly, it is clearly said that “this fig tree is in memory of…” so your wild allegation of Molungyimsen claiming the fig tree as the one 146 years ago (not 148) is meaningless. Read the plaque given beside the fig tree to know its story.

In a village ,if the believers are prosecuted so much by the NON believers even up to the extent of ordering the believers by the village authority to take the Missionary back to where he came from , this village cannot be called as The First Christian Village!
It's very true that Christianity first reached the beautiful village of Molungkimong in the year 1872 , but the believers were prosicuted by the non believers of Molungkimong so much and not only that ,the village authority even give out orders to take the Missionary i.e Dr.EW Clark back to where he came from .

Now We can easily confirm that the church which is in Molungyimsen is the oldest church in Nagaland and Molungyimsen village is the First Christian Village in Nagaland .
To clear any misconceptions regarding this news report, here are some excerpts from the missionary records regarding Molungyimsen: The First Christian Village and the oldest Naga Church in the Naga Hills.
“…To establish a village where the spirit of Christianity rather that that of war should reign, the Christians of Deka Haimong with the missionary moved a few miles westward to a vacant mountain crest and founded the village of Molung on the 24th of October 1876. Here in all the ages was the first Naga village to hold Christ as King, all praise to His name…”
Dr. E.W. Clark.
“…Most encouraging news comes from Molung. If we are to believe the reports, the whole village, practically, has become Christian…”
S. A. Perrine. Impur.
“…Molung (Molungyimsen) village is now very largely Christian; that is, the Christian element much predominates. It is fairly good ideal Christian village for the first in the tribe out of heathenism…”
Rev. E.W. Clark.
“...The church at Molung (Molungyimsen) village, the first church organized in all that mountain region…”
Mrs. Mary Mead Clark.
“…There are two churches in this tribe of Nagas, one at Merangkong, and one at this Molung (Molungyimsen) village…”
Rev. E.W. Clark. Amguri, April 1, 1884.
“…The year closing with December, 1892, presents no startling facts. One new church has been formed. It is in the village where the first baptisms were performed in the Naga Hills. It was because the Christians were persecuted so much in this Deka Haimong village that they were induced to form the new village Molung. But the chief persecutors have died; several Christians have gone there from other villages. These were formed into a church, and three were baptized, two of the three being chief men of the village…”

Why trying to change our History..??Do you think Lychee tree from 1872 will be still there?? Are you serious?? Please stop.
Akali Jimo, you have a lot to learn about the history of Christianity in Nagaland. Anyway, for you to start with let us assume that Molungkimong village is the first christian village. Can you name the villages after 1876 where Christianity was planted by Molungkimong.
Nagaland Baptist church council officially accepts 1872 as the first Baptist church established in Nagaland which was in Dekahaimong which is called Molungkimong in mokokchung district. Molungyimsen village was established in the year 1876 and thereby claiming to be first established church by them does not arise according to my limited wisdom. Moreover the record clearly shows that the new village was established comprising both by non Christians and Christians so the question of first Christian village does not arise.
You are absolutely right 👍💪
True...
The first Christian village wasn't named during the formation of Molungyimsen but in the later years when all the villagers accepted the new faith. And the first Naga Church established in Dekahaimong (Molungkimong) in 1872 is still alive in Molungyimsen.

Imti jamir ,I Love the bible verse that you quote. Need of the hour.
I'm sure there must be a reason why Molungkimong was and still is, for the longest time and "till date" considered the place where Christianity first birthed, in every article and academic books available. It's irrelevant for you to jolt and try your hands at changing the history of our state. What happens to the bygone jubilee souvenirs that marked the history of Molungyimsen? Hasn't it been done and dusted? It has been engraved in the stars. "Light at the end of the tunnel", I consider this fabrication the 'tunnel' before the assured light which is the sesquicentennial. No ill will whatsoever, I just wish we could grandly celebrate the coming of Christianity together.
If you watch the video nicely you will understand what the video wants the people to learn about Christianity in Nagaland.
Okay, then how about we do that without beating around the bush?!
They are not claiming about the Advent of Christianity but they are trying to bring out the truth about the Church and the celebration of 150 years of First Naga Church in Naga Hill's which is still in Molungyimsen Village.
If we go by the facts, they don't get to celebrate their yim's sesquicentennial until only later. You're saying something, but meaning something else. When there is too much flactuation in decision making (jubilees- evidences) in any standard organization, management, grouping or assembly, people refuse to take them seriously. You've celebrated all the 25th to 125th jubilees, how are you suddenly claiming all of them to be a mistake? What about the blessings bestowed upon you during those celebrations; they just can't evaporate into thin air. How fruitful could filing a case against ABAM be for Aoer? This is deception! Literally everything amalgamates, so stop beating around the bush!
Firstly, the first Church in Naga Hill's was called "The Naga Church" which was established in 1872 at Deka Haimong (Molungkimong) but from 1876 the Church at Molung (Molungyimsen) was referred as 'The Naga Church' by Rev. Dr. E.W. Clark and other missionaries. So the fact is, there was no Church at Deka Haimong (Molungkimong) after 1876.
Secondly, Rev. Dr. E.W. Clark was considered as British Spy and a colonizer and the Christian's were persecuted by the Non-Christians at Deka Haimong (Molungkimong) village. So Rev. Dr. E.W. Clark, some Christian's and few Non-Christian's established a New Village called 'Molung' ( Molungyimsen). The Church at Molung (Molungyimsen) was called 'The Naga Church' which was 'The First Church in Naga Hill's'. It was from this Church that Angami and Lotha Mission Fields were started.
Thirdly, the Church at Deka Haimong (Molungkimong) was established in 1892 which was called as 'Deka Haimong Church'. Again in the year 1919 another Church was established at the same village and that time it was called 'Molungyimchen Church'.
Moreover, the fact is Molungyimsen had been celebrating Jubilees according to ABAM's resolutions and even this year they will be celebrating Sesquicentennial according to ABAM resolution. Remember, when you say Molungyimsen's Jubilee was a mistake you are also accusing ABAM as well. Please check the ABAM's resolutions.
what does ABAM say in this matter?
Believers who worshipped God in their hearts and took prayer fellowship daily in their old church at Mulongkimong after Dr.Clark leave with the Nonbelievers of Mulongyimsen only to start his mission center. because of those unsung believers who were left at Mulongkimong, we are here today, they might be crying for disowning them by today's fake made-up stories. But the truth will justify them. Mulongkimong 1872 and Mulongyimsen 1876. Who will believe it?
Christians at Molungkimong after 1876? There wasn't any till 1892. And what are the contributions of those believers from Molungkimong that led us here today? Which book are you quoting this from? Have you by any chance seen a letter or a report written by Dr. E.W. Clark? Judging by your comments it seems you have been led astray by some oral narratives and I pity you. If you want to know the history of the Naga Church then better read books and written records.
@@dhiamung Written records cannot judge the believer's faith who were left by Clark and nonbelievers of Mulongyimsen. We know that they took church regularly. Yea reorganization of churches happens from time to time because of the problems and even today many churches face problems and reorganize. But the blood of Jesus once shed for the believer's life can't be removed by your fake written papers. Read Kilep Taküm Zülo book.
@@sunepimchen4989 What do you understand by the below given written records left by Dr Clark?
“One new church has been formed. It is in the village where the first baptisms were performed in the Naga Hills. It was because the Christians were "persecuted" so much in this Deka Haimong village (Molungkimong) that they were induced to form the new village Molung (Molungyimsen). But the chief persecutors have died; several Christians have gone there from other villages. These were formed into a church, and three were baptized, two of the three being chief men of the village.” (Edward Winter Clark, “The Naga Mission: Rev. E. W. Clark,” Baptist Missionary Magazine, 73.8, 1893, p. 402).
"There are two churches in this tribe of Nagas, one at Merangkong, and one at this Molung village (Molungyimsen)." Edward Winter Clark, "Mission to the Nagas" Amguri, April 1, 1884.

Molungyimsen: the first mission center of Dr.Clerk, where education and his outreach mission started.
But Molungkimong is the first Christian village and the first church established. Sir, you know what, Molungyimsen was founded by nonbelievers with Dr.clerk so that they could get the power to rule which was once denied to them.
@@zenithaonok2017 let them do whatever they want, the world knows it what's the truth..
There are few numbers of intellectual influencer who tries to manipulates the world with their fake claim..They are deeply rooted in corruption and does not leave no stone unturned in spreading this fake news about first Naga Christian village
Our forefathers knew the truth left ancient animism,follow Christ, they were blessed. But today again some money minded half converted leaders trying to bring idol worshippers bck in naga soil.
Blessing flow from this village 🙏 lucky us
May God bless Molungyimsen Amen
MAY GOD BLESS MOLUNGKIMONG AMEN🙏
Wow thank thank you hornbell tv.
The audacity to spread mis information is beyond me. I don't know where they will stop. Seriously being a good fearing Christian, you guys should not play against the true facts. It was in Molungkimong that Christianity first arrived. And that's a fact.
What misinformation? When did Molungyimsen claim that Christianity first arrived at Molungyimsen?
Yes first arrived but how could the church be there when it is said that the church has been shifted to Molungyimsen in 1876.

I thought tamul petalnut s not for us but tis village elders prove me wrong.😀😀😀
I don't belong to Ao tribe but ever since we were kids, we've only known about Molungkimong being the first Baptist Church. And how comes Molungyimsen people are celebrating 150 years? And i want to know whether ABAM have approved molungyimsen villagers to celebrate 150 years of Christianity? If so please justify i want to know.And by reading Erza Tzudir's comments, it seems legit because three to four people are countering him/her in the comment section where Erza is throwing facts all alone. It's like Foxes tryna fight a lion. 😅✌️ Good luck.
Brother m belongs to Ao tribe and ever since when we were kids we heard and told by forefathers as well as by ABAM and NBCC told about Molungyimsen the first church in Naga hills based on written records by Clark and all the pioneer missionary's that is the facts you may not go through the records or may be just heard some oral narrations from the people of Molungkimong so its not Molungkimong but the first church in Naga hills e.i MOLUNGYIMSEN hope by now you wouldn't forget and Tell the truth to the people around us may His grace be with you
The truth is, Dr.Clerk was escorted by 60 warriors while coming to Mulongkimong. He was comfortable in the village until those powermongers who were denied power at Molungkimong for reason best known to them, created division using the name of religion and brainwashed Dr.Clerk and took him promising him to provide the land which he was requesting, as he wanted to start his mission center at the earliest. Just to have power or to rule by them in the new village they shifted to a new place. It's a political issue. Even an original citizen of Mulongyimsen was excommunicated for confessing the truth.
@sunep Imchen Hello Mr.Sunep Imjen . please ! do you have any reasoning capacity or so to say commonsense ?
What is the use of being included in putu menten (council members) WITHOUT HIS OWN HEAD ATTACHED TO THE BODY !
The TRUTH is ,in the midst of the Era of HEADHUNTING which was practice by every Naga people ( village). ,the brave christian believers knowing that they were going to be victim of HEADHUNTERS risk everything (even their lives ) just so to preserve and practice the Christian religion freely . Bro. @Sunep Imchen,Use your brain !
Actually your knowledge about First Naga Church should be like this, it was established in 1872 in Molungkimong but in 1876 that Church was Shifted to Molungyimsen "The First Christian Village in Naga Hill's" because there is no record about the Church in Molungkimong after 1876.
Maybe you read some books by some controversial writers. Erza is spreading false narratives and recently made-up stories. Check the excerpt of some records that I shared here to clear your misconception.
My homeland 😇
God Bless Molungyimsen💫
GOD BLESS MOLUNGKIMONG💫💫💫
God will surely bless.. But not those spreading false information about Christianity and the formation of the church.
@@sunepimchen4989 you are spreading faults information. Can you just stop this??? Don't preach what you hear
#Annie. Molungyimsen should know their birthday first. Church stays in our hearts, not the structure. Believers were there @Molungkimong when power mongers leave molungkimong where they were denied power by elder councilors. It's a political issue, not a mere emotional made-up story.
God bless Molungyimsen the first Babtist Church in Nagaland Amen
Thank you hornbill tv..
God bless molungyimsen.
GOD BLESS MOLUNGKIMONG.AMEN🙏
Thanks molungyimsen people god bless
I'm happy that this time, they didn't told reporters that their church was built by dr clark in 1876 🤣🤣🤣
A little advice to TV channels or youtuber in Nagaland, before doing a documentary or reports, pls do a little research first about the fact. 🙏🙏🙏
Truely Said👍👍👍 agreed 💯👍👍
🤣 who knows, someday they might even claim tat.. 😂😂
You can't even prove them (Hornbill Tv ) wrong either , because they have all the necessary facts an records of the history of the Down of Christianity in Nagaland .
@@jamir6813 how many Christians were prosecuted in Molungkimong village?????
And remember once molungyimsen told nagaland post that the church was built by dr clark. Remember???
Puppet people pls stop spamming 🙏🙏🙏 Truth will reveal soon and i wish that pastor wouldn't end up his life so well.
#Jamir, I know you will be excommunicated from your village if you support the truth. Pity you.
Supongmeren was the first Baptist from Molungkimong village. He was baptized on Oct 1,1871 at Sibsagar in the river Dikhu. On December 10, 1872, nine people from the village were baptised at Sibsagar and another 15 on December 22 at Molungkimong village. Though Supongmeren and 9 others from Molungkimong Village were baptized first at Sibsagar on Oct 1, 1871 and Nov 10, 1872 consequently, the ABAM had decided that the first baptism will be dated 22 Dec 1872 as the latter 15 villagers were baptized in Molungkimong village itself by Dr. EW Clark.
It has also been mentioned that the first baptism at Molungyimsen took place on June 2, 1878, two years after they established their village. Also the name Molung-yimsen means New Village.
A child cannot say he was birthed before his father.
What? Supongmeren? Are you sure? Never come across his baptism before. Is it a new research findings?
If you are talking about baptism, baptism can be done anywhere and anytime when his soul connects with Christ.
Can you kindly enlighten me in which missionary record its written. I need it for a research.
For your reference you can read about Supongmeren's baptism from- "Mary Mead. Letter to J.N Murdock. Dt. October 5,1871,BMM, 1872, January,p.24; Letter from Mr. Clark, Dt. August 10,1872 in BMM, December 1872; P.T. Philip, The Growth of Baptist Churches in Nagaland.p.51; All is Light! All is Light, Naga Mission and Church Record.p.18
About Molungyimsen 's baptism, refer to "Assam Mission Statistics for the Year 1878, BMM, 1879, July,p 231."
You're welcome.
@@erzatzudir9213 actually Molungyimsen church was founded only on 2nd June 1878.
It is truly a very Educative and Informative news about the facts and records of Christianity in Nagaland . thanks to Hornbill Tv.
Hi you are misleading almost all the information here in this video are wrong. Be aware.
Funny people. Jamir, sorom nai naki. I am also planning to transfer first church Molungkimong to another first church. Oh my God. You guys are funny
If a statement is based on historical facts and records one cannot prove it wrong or fake just by SAYING it's misleading or fake, people need evidence to support their claims , which you don't have!
When people do something which is facts please accept it and cherish it's not done by insane persons but it's done by reasonable persons based on original records and can't be erase in Church history
According to me it may be the first mission school but where did Dr. Clark step his foot step and where was the first baptism took place.
Molungkimong is the first Christian village. Dr.clerk came to molungkimong in 1872, so molungkimong is the first Christian village. In 1876, molungyimsen was founded by a group of people where most of the villagers were nonbelievers. ruclips.net/video/M_klfPUu7O8/видео.html

Bro..! It's very much clear that your so called 'A news channel' is sharing a lot of informative facts and records to the people all around the world .one should know that, It is not wise to spread or point out 'Half Truth ' about the historical facts and records .
Lmao
100% facts
Let them earn, but you enjoy watching the facts..🤩
Halo.... you are still in confusion frame of mind after explaining everything in detail. None of them were believers initially but people who accepted Christianity those people and some non believers decided to build a new village thats is called molungyimsen and from there the Christianity flourished among the Nagas. So Molungyimsen is known as the first Christian village. Got it??
Is very hard travel. 4 hrs
First Christianity village Molungyimsen kwa??hahaha shame on you guys and who tf uploaded this video,must delete before the account get suspend 😌
99.9% state/country etc... knows that First Christianity village is MOLUNGKIMONG not Molungyimsen so please stop spamming all over the media......
I have one question that how much money did you guys took just to say First Christianity MOLUNGYIMSEN huh???
Ans=??
Dr. Clark and his wife might be laughing at you guys from the heaven :0
Worth watching.

We all knew that a misunderstanding arose between the councils, the older rulers didn't give the power to the younger generation for reason best known to them, so some believers from younger generations brainwashed Dr.Clerk as an excuse, moved to a new place promising him to give the land which he was asking. It's a political issue.
Hello Sunep imchen... 4rm whr did u get ts...??
R u a politician??
4rm whr d hell d word politics came in tos days
Maybe ua 4rm tat younger generation
What brainwashing are you on about? I'm telling you, it's you who has been brainwashed. Dr. Clark along with the very few handful of believers were subjected to scrutiny which was why they were forced to leave Molungkimong

What a shame..!! Molyungyimsen was formed in 1876 and now they're declaring to celebrate 150 years jubilee? 🤣🤣Molyungyimsen you have 4 years to honor 150years of jubilee, why don't you make up? Outside of your Church it is mentioned that your village was established in 1872,when in reality your Church was formed in 1876,What a logic 🤣🤣and I've come across in some Clark's documents in which he clearly mentioned that he was not happy with the villagers in molyungyimsen, so he decided to get away, and one early morning he moved out along with his horse . However, some villagers saw and followed him and cut off the bridge when he was in the middle of the bridge,why talk of Prosecution in Molungkimong while he was mistreated by villagers in molyungyimsen ?
This is how molungkimong villagers used to create history. Nothing new of your such feeble narration.

Despite persecution,Dr Clark could overcome his mission works all those four years ie. 1872 to 76 in Molungkimong and I'm glad that has life was 100%saved when he was in Molungkimong...
The word "persecution"is not a new word,even today Christian missionaries and christians are persecuted even today in different parts of the world and in India as well... God bless Molungkimong and Molungyimsen.. Dr Clark might have studied Missiology where he learn to establish more n more churches 🙏🙏
Dr. Clark didn't live in Molungkimong from 1872 to 1876. Know the facts right.
