Christians In Politics and Governance

Christians in Politics and Governance must be actively involved in the realm of politics and the administration of societal affairs. This engagement includes participating in political processes, holding governmental positions, advocating for policies aligned with Christian principles, and promoting ethical governance.

At The Online Church (TOC), we encourage our members to participate in politics, leadership, and governance at all levels. While our primary focus is on the church, worship, humanity, and the environment, we do not avoid political matters that affect us. We believe that Christians in politics and governance should see themselves as stewards of God's creation and agents of His Kingdom. Through this perspective, they can foster positive change and transformation in their spheres of influence, glorifying God and enhancing the well-being of humanity.

As Christians in politics, they must seek to apply their faith-based values and beliefs to public policy issues and decision-making. Their goal is to uphold principles such as justice, compassion, integrity, and the sanctity of life. By doing so, they would advocate for policies that promote social justice, protect human rights, alleviate poverty, and foster peace and reconciliation.

Navigating the complexities of political life, Christians in politics and governance are called to uphold their faith convictions while respecting the diverse perspectives and beliefs of others. They must engage in dialogue, collaboration, and cooperation across religious, ideological, and cultural divides, working towards solutions that reflect God's love and wisdom. By doing this, they would achieve a positive change and transformation in their spheres of influence for the glory of God and the betterment of humanity.
