Is it a good idea for Christians to get involved in politics, because if they are involved in it, they tend to lie, make promises they can't fulfill and sometimes get their hands dirty which is sin.
And ministers of the Gospel, are they suppose to endorse any candidate to their congregants. What's your take?
God created man to be ruled by the laws of spirit rather than his fellow man. However, because of sin, we are subject to human rules that are full of lies, nepotism, tribalism, and other societal vices that we see today. Politics is about lies, deception, and corruption, and a Christian who has been redeemed from sin and Satan should not participate in it. There is nothing good in it, and true Christians filled with the Holy Spirit have no desire for it.
First thing first, politics is different from Christianity lifestyle, a Christian can participate in politics and there's nothing bad in it, but does every politician fear God? No, thisbis common and notbonky in politics but every life strata, it is wrong for a man of God to endorse a political candidate for a position, he can bless him privately but very wrong to make a public proclamation of a candidate, we need to bebvery careful on how we relate political things with the dealings of the Lord, give caesar what belongs to it, give God what is due to Him.
