Abstract
Faith and politics in the South African context, are they God-ordained institutions, intended to be mutually supportive? Or are they permanent opponents? These questions will be the bone of contention for this article. The problem of the relation between faith and politics is not new. It has accompanied the faith communities for almost twenty centuries without being fully resolved. Answers that have been given at certain times and in certain situations seem to be inadequate when circumstances change and new issues appear. The roots of this struggle for theological clarity may be traced to the Bible and in the theological traditions. After investigating literature about politics and faith throughout ages, one could recommend that Christians should participate in politics.
