"By their fruits, you shall know them", said Jesus Christ.

God did not leave the world blind to the wickedness that lives in the heart of man. No, Jesus Christ told us exactly what to look out for. And you only need to train your heart to know what to look for... learn to examine the fruits in order to spot the good trees from the bad trees.

Very possible!



Some of us do not attain or maintain power by dipping hands into evil.

There are many good kings in the Bible, are kings and president not human? As a Good Christian king or president, power and money cannot override you.

Solomon had a wonderful knowledge of the Scriptures and a high view of God, as can be seen by his prayer of dedication found in 1 Kings chapter 8.

And he wrote, A man born of woman is of few days. Solomon show a penitent attitudes, he repented. How can you label him a bad character? Who had not sin before?

You need to read your Bible! I am certain you did not even know this about King Solomon, to begin with. grin
You've gotta read that book for yourself, not wait for your pastors/teachers to spoon feed you these things.

Maybe a King but any political post like governors, the lawmakers and so on, they are all criminals either directly or indirectly, forget their Pastor or Alhaji titles.

In this very world or another one? Pastor Osinbajo can give us the best answer to this since he became the vice president if practicing Christianity is as easy as it was when he was not into politics.

Why not?

Whosoever that is good is good, and whosoever that is bad is bad. But the most important of it is Psalms 90:12.

If he is God's ordained King , why not?

He can choose to always stand on the truth and shun evil at all times.

Remember! He is the king; where the word of a king is , there is POWER.

A big NO
Take Osibanjo for instance
He's has been silent on what matters most in the country simply because of political interest
He's covering lies and evil act of the demon party "APC"

I HAVE A QUESTION FOR SEUN AND OTHER MODS

If this was a topic related to Islam, ppl would be required to make a declaration that allah is the greatest on their profile page.

So anybody can comment on a christian topic but not on an islamic topic, we can't even felicitate with them..

An explaination is needed

In present day Nigeria it's impossible, cos even our so called men of God are not "true Christians'

Some ministers of Church are more concern to grow there ministries than winning soul to Christ, there by involving in fetish things, how much more an African man who want to remain in power.
