In other words, Can you be a Peter Obi? grin

He's like the closest thing we have to that amongst the immensely popular once.

But sometimes, diplomacy dictates you cross the lines.

But your pastors are running for political officies and supporting politicians. They allow politicians climb their pulpits.

This question seem unnecessary. Can you say the non politicians are genuine Christians?
To be a genuine Christian is more than simply being a non politician. undecided

There is not relationship between light and darkness, especially in the Nigerian politics.

naijaclass:
The political docility of Christians of the early church could be traced to the fact that Israel and some gentile nations were under the colonial rule of the Roman Empire and Christians were taught to be in subjection to the authorities that be at best, they were to pray for those in power and could not participate in the politics of their time.

This might have been responsible for why Christians hesitate to be actively involved in the politics of our days, whereas, the God we believe and serve is interested in the way the world is governed (Romans 13: 1, 1Timothy 2: 1-2, Genesis 1: 28).




It is of concern to Christians: To be a part of ‘high-level’ decision-making processes to ensure that Justice is done.

Politicians come better pass Christians.

So the question should be, can you be a Christian and still be a good politician.

So presiding senior pastor of redeemed Christian church of God who is full time active and well known politician in edo that is senior pastor Osagie Ize Iyamu is not a Christian because he is a politician and till date he is still preaching in one of the biggest church in benin city. Politicians are better than Nigeria pastors.
Christianity is a scam.

It is a ''future impossible tense'' no politician is a Christian, but most Christians today are politicians even in the church, they play politics.

That's not possible.For you to be a politician and a world leader then it's impossible.The world it self is ruled by the devil and it gives power to people who are interested in ruling the world in one way or the other.For you to rule a country or the world as a politician or not, there must have been a devil swearing in you must do
All this powerful men in the world are of the devil including your world celebrities

Peter Obi is a proper example. While dude was living a clean life, he never knew a time like this where his past life will be talked about by millions of Nigerians and across the world.

Jesus Christ did not command such gatherings as that which you describe. Instead those gatherings are as commanded by God in His Old Law of Moses, as agreement specifically for those who are of the blood of Jacob. The Hebrew epistles was written by the author specifically to the believers of Jewish/Hebrew decent. undecided
