Value is not placed on people of no value in crises. Our very most respected man of God is in trouble, the man known to be the King solomon of our generation; he is indeed generational thinker whose sermons are sought after for Phd’s etc . It is under this man that I learnt that more is expected from me as a Christian than just to sit down and wait on God for some huge miracle, he taught me that I am a Christian and by principle everything on this earth is under me, they must heed to my command as a child of God. It is just not proper for uncircumcised philistines(pagans/atheist) to rule over this world, in politics, business etc.
Our good pastor with his values and in fulfilling his duties as a true child of God is faced with these major topics;
• Politics
• Business and
• Religion
These 3 topics are so delicate in our new created world that makes conflicts of interest inevitable when a stand is taken. Consequences comes after such stand, your personality is lost at such since every act is judged at your stand. Being Christians the best one can do is to trust in God and leave all others to him.
Now that does not mean that Christians do not make mistakes and must be exempted from persecution. One becomes a man or woman to be a Christian, when a stand is made; a stance must be defended. Persecution will come, if it was a stand taken under God’s directions, a stand will be exonerated; if a stance wasn’t taken under God’s directions, the Christian then learns and make better judgements in the future.
One must not be pampered or held in high esteem just because he is a Christian or man of God. A Christian must go through whatever the politician or the business man goes through when they take a stand. Value has to be built upon conviction not just because one is a man of God
Our Pastor must be commended for being a true Child of God , he must embrace the criticisms from the general public. He mustn’t loose hope, if he backs down; other pastors would leave everything for the uncircumcised philistines to rule us
