Is Taking Part In Politics A Sin? by Maccoy1(m): 11:41am On Feb 22, 2015
As a beliver, is taking past in politics a sin, especially when we are faced with debates that warrant us to portray the opposition in bad light and With the rate at which rumors, allegations, propaganda nd lies are involved...some of us post materials that the opposition claim is false even when some this allegations can be back up with facts and evidence....
The reason am bringing this up is that when ever i remember the scripture that says don't judge i feel guilty, but on the other hand i feel caged not being able to express my view? Pls whats ur take on this

Nigerian politics is a sin except you plan to lose.
Sometimes, I wonder if God really intervenes in our politics.

As christians, we should pray to God to change the heart of the bloodlusted retired general (BUHARI).

In Nigeria?? Damned if there is.
Of course, one can't rule out the possibility of such, but with the system so corrupt that power perpetually remains in the hands of a minority few, it's near impossible to become a leader without compromise.

As a born again Christian, you will have to sin if you're a politician in this present day and in this country.

The bible says "If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown into hell". Matt 5:29

So, can you be a politician without lying and being corrupt or even aiding and abetting wrong doing?

If you steal, engage in corrupt practises, divert public funds, sabotage the economy and lacks honesty.
You rig elections, maim your opposition party members, empower criminals to manage the country's resources and run from one religious institutions to another.

Politics in Nigeria is pure sin..95% of our politicians have killed directly or indirectly not to talk of the various rituals they perform which require humans.
The Soka case comes to mind where politicians go there to buy Human fluid and parts before they were discovered but up till now the case is still being buried cos of the orders from Ogas at the top.

ill advice christians to strongly participate..
let ur light so shine, so all men shall see and glorify ur father in heaven..

as long as u stick to the truth. ur oppositions would be no match.

but then again.. i dont think shepherds(pastors) should be forerunners of politics.. they have their office. they have responsibilities in feeding the flock, hearing from above.
