Speaking on restoring Nagaland for Christ, Rev. Dr. Wati Aier said that God was looking for the best and the brightest for restoring the land. The best and the brightest however, he said \u201ccomes from the courage to admit that one is a sinner before God.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cNagas must turn the world upside down\u201d, \u201cLet us be rebels with the right cause and let us be radicals for right cause\u201d, Dr. Wati affirmed. Referring from Bible he said human beings were supposed to say no to what was wrong and that kind of attitude was the need of the hour. He went on to say that Nagaland could be restored if only people like the 12 disciples were totally committed for a cause.<br \/>\nDr. Wati ended his sermon with a hopeful note saying, \u201crestoring Nagaland means making Nagaland, and we are called to be workers to restore Nagaland for Christ.\u201d<br \/>\nThe fourth and the fifth day of the crusade would be held at Purana Bazar and city tower with deputy commissioner Dimapur Maongwati Aier and director NCRC mission centre Dimapur Reverend Vevozo Khamo as speakers respectively.<br \/>\nThe Restore Nagaland for Christ crusade program is being organised byUnited Christian prayer ministries in collaboration with gospel ministries, Bible colleges and Churches in Dimapur for five days on the theme \u201c\u2026I (God) have this against you, that you have abandoned the love you had at first.

Talking about the first commitment made by the national workers and Nagas in 1950 to 1960 which brought peace, joy, love, and unity among the Nagas, he said that to restore the same revival spirit in the society today, \u2018we should forgive and ask forgiveness from God.\u2019 He stressed that restoring Nagaland for Christ was a responsibility and restoring relationships among Nagas was the only hope and solution to restore Nagaland.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rev.
