- Most churches have cancelled fundraisers spearheaded by politicians and in the process grabbed the pulpit back.
- For the church to redeem itself, its leaders must remove the log in their eyes. They must stand for what is just and what is right.
The Church and the state have been cosy bedfellows for decades. Clerics abdicated their moral role of justice and fairness and defenders of the weak and the poor.
Blinded by power and expensive gifts, they bequeathed corrupt and greedy politicians a platform with which to pacify the downtrodden.
They rolled out the red carpet to welcome the rich and in return, were rewarded with gold and silver.
Clerics became so obsessed with their bank balances and junked the teachings of Jesus, the central figure in Christianity.
But in a brash gesture, Zoomers called the Church out and nudged clerics back to their calling.
Most churches have cancelled fundraisers spearheaded by politicians and in the process grabbed the pulpit back.
The dalliance with politicians at the expense of their key role is an error that should never be repeated.
For the church to redeem itself, its leaders must remove the log in their eyes. They must stand for what is just and what is right.
Dereliction of duty means no one will feed and tend to the sheep.
