Can Christian Confront Bad Leadership? by Omooba77: 8:27am On Mar 01, 2020 |
The Bible enjoyed us to pray for Our leaders. Is it also right for us to confront bad leadership like Elijah did to Ahab; Jeremiah to kings? |

Why not? |

Omooba77: Yes that is for church leaders to confront because they have such voice at such level but not for ordinary church goers |

Omooba77: Moses Elijah Elisha Samuel Etc Did your see any of them go to the king in their days with the entire church members? NO.... They went alone because they were sent, Followers are not sent, they follow the person that was sent. |

It is citizens right to condemn their leaders when they are not meeting up to expectations.. But only in a mature way... It shouldn't be condemnation all the time, suggestions should also follow suit 1 Like |

Ladylite:God can send anyone, Samuel was sent as a child. Ye are prophet too |

Omooba77: Just be calm abeg. God can not and does not send just anyone. God is not confused and disorderly. If you have no deep relationship with God, you can't be sent. Even you will not have faith to go. And the person will not respect anything you say. Why will I send someone that barely knows me to someone important if I expect them to take my words seriously. Think na. Open your Bible, God never just sends anyone. They must have a major history with God. |

Ladylite: God can use anyone, even a mad man to deliver His message.. He used a donkey to confront Balaam... |

Elijah escaped the first time and ran up in God's Chariot. He came back to try it with Herod and ended up with his HEAD IN A PLATE. We are all Jeremies now because our Lord and Savior CHRIST, has conquered the World, the Ratish Fulanis inclusive. |

Omooba77: God is not a Nollywood director. The calibre of the person to whom the message is meant for and urgency of the message determines the vessel used to deliver it. I knew u would speak of donkey but it was only one incident and just for the prophet. Not for a king. The topic is about people in authority. God will never use mad Men or donkeys for them. Have some sense pls |

Omooba77: NO! The whole earth is under the influence of Satan the devil (1John 5:19; John 14:30) but any King sitting on the throne of Israel supposed to be a representative of God because God has given them what could help them to lead as righteous rulers "the laws of God". All other nations of the earth are using human wisdom to form their laws. That is why God's prophets are like watchmen for kings ruling his people. But when Jesus began his ministry, it was evident that the nation has been condemned so there is no need thinking of how to correct them again, that is why we can see that neither Jesus nor his his followers said anything against the rulers of their people. John the baptist did it and was killed! Matthew 14:3-12 |

TATIME: Many prophets in old testament lost their lives criticising kings |
Re: Can Christian Confront Bad Leadership? by Nobody: 6:37pm On Mar 01, 2020 |
Omooba77: Jesus is the greatest critic of worldly rulers, but his form of criticism is not direct. He preach and teach people to hope in God's kingdom (God's government) telling them there is nothing this worldly rulers can do to make any real improvement! So complaining about how they failed is unscriptural since we're waiting and praying for God's own government! Matthew 6:10 |
