Revelation of the Word

THEME: CHURCH AND POLITICS

Esther‬ ‭3:6‬ ‭

‭‭‬‬‬‬‬‬ “Yet having learned who Mordecai’s people were, he scorned the idea of killing only Mordecai. Instead Haman looked for a way to destroy all Mordecai’s people, the Jews, throughout the whole kingdom of Xerxes.”

INSIGHT
-Political sensitizers are active political participants who give advice to the public on political matters. These can be social groups, activists, civic education groups, political experts, church leaders, journalists etc. Some of them are Christians and profess their faith in God. Most often they speak about social economic issues that affect the public. Haman who was king Xerxes senior-most official who plotted to kill all the Jews when Mordecai could not pay homage to him. Haman was a proud and self absorbed leader who expected everyone to kneel down for him. Mordecai on the other hand was quick to disburse true information on the ongoing plot against the Jews, to Esther. Queen Esther then prayed, fasted and approached the King thus overturning the whole matter. Mordecai shows us how politically active he was in being a sensitizer in the true, right and Godly way. We are called to spread the gospel of peace during this time of elections in the societies we live in.
