Have Christians and Christianity failed?

Let us do some very simple math.. We are always told that Kenya has 80% Christians. Out of 40 Million Kenyans according to the past statistics, that make it 32 million Christians in Kenya. That is a very big number. Social researchers have found that, in a group of people, only 5% understand the aim and goals of a group. Out of 32 million remains 1.6 million people.

Let us do some more math. Imagine if our country had 32 million engineers who have been learning about engineering from a tender age and get lessons about it three or four times a week. I believe that this country would have amazing infrastructure, roads, building and be a hot bed of engineering prowess. Imagine if there were 32 million doctors, we would have the best healthcare in the world.

How is it then, that a country with 32 million Christians, who have been taught all their lives and attend church every Sunday and midweek services, has the world worst unchristian mannerisms?

If 32 million of us just kept the 10 commandments, we would not have murder, corruption will be nill, politics would be clean, adultery will be near zero, equity and equality for all… the list is endless.

But, ooh noo, corruption is at a all time high, tribalism is rife, hate, adultery, greed, strife, social injustice, and let me simplify it for you, YOU HAVE A PADLOCK OR LOCK ON YOUR DOOR in a country that 32 million of its citizen know that “Thau shall not steal”… the list is endless. What is happening?

Out of 32 million Christians, if we go with the social theory of 5% it means, there are only 1.6 million people who live according to the biblical teachings.

Christians, we all need to step up, repent and go back to the heart of worship. We should actually cast out our religiosity and Christianity and put on Christ, have a relationship with The Holy Spirit and do The Father’s will.

We are failing as a church and look at the results, we are failing our country and we are failing our world.

Look at the chain.. If we just loved our neighbors, just that one thing, we would have solved a huge percentage of the problems we face in this country. We would love our neighbors so much that we can’t allow the politicians to make us fight one another, we would love our neighbors so much that we will rise up with fists of justice to fight corruption because it will deny them rights and deny us our rights, we would love our neighbors so much that we would dare not have any affairs with their spouses…

Think about it my brothers and sisters, the country is waiting on you, the whole of you, 32 million of you and counting, waiting for you to rise up and rescue the country and the world. We are the light of the world, let us put it up. In God to God and through God, by His mercy, grace, knowledge and wisdom.

Your truly
