Politics within the Church


1)      Politics are a tricky thing to have, because they can cause a great amount of grief, however, without politics, there cannot be equality. We should have politics within the church to govern and lead the church for the church. Politics become bad when a certain individual or group of individuals decide to use the political system within the church to gain an advantage over other people. The point of politics is to bring equality, once equality is lost, politics have failed. The upside to politics is that we can decide as a church or convention what we want as a whole, whether that be adding or taking away a new position, mission, or theological belief.
