Hi,
I am of the view that the word "christian" should be properly defined.A christian is one that has accepted Jesus Christ as his / her personal Lord and Saviour.A church goer is not a christian until he / she has accepted Christ as stated above.Most of our leaders are not christians based on the above,they are church goers.So,how would you see the effect of the Holy Spirit in their lives?A christian that is walking in the spirit ordinarily cannot be involved in corruption at every level.The Holy Spirit is there in him / her to guide as he /she is alive to His leading is ready to allow Him to lead.That doesn't mean that a christian cannot be involved in corrupt practices.This happens when he / she is not walking in the spirit or he /she hasn't renewed his / her mind (Rm. 12:2).There's always a decision to make.You have the choice which cannot be overridden by God.

Nevertheless,everybody is expected to act in the beneficial interest of other citizens.This is what is lacking in our days.Instead,we go the selfish lane and cause destruction of all sorts.God is not responsible for the evil happenings taking place.The ball is in our court. He is a good God.

A lot to share but...time.

Regards.
