Prophetic Leadership:
• Only pulpit sermon is not sufficient nor forgetting the prophetic messages from old testaments period. Churches has become like financial institutes, instead of honouring the teaching from the Bible to search the lost sheep's they are busy searching development. Not to be personalised. High time to revive the leaders of the church community from their shortsighted and demonstrate the true Christian faith and it's faith. Amen.
Spiritual Sanctuary:
• The church can help rehabilitate the accused rather than isolating them and also give proper judgment according to the biblical judgments irrespective of the different denomination present in Christianity so that the victim may be at peace while encouraging peace and harmony among people but with all of this being said even some church leader, associates of church are equally responsible for the atrocities committed by their own church members irrespective of their position ;should also be held accountable. While preaching the message of God ,one should also follow it
Facilitate Dialogue:
• Right now the Church in Nagaland must show that they are serious about the problems confronting the Naga people. The Church needs to lead in facilitating dialogue between various interest groups and also between tribes. The Church must become the uniting point for all Nagas.
• At present I fail to see a structured leadership on God's Law and find rampant refusal to Obey His Law that has lead to the moral and social crisis as they fail to acknowledge that Sin is Transgression of The Law 1 John 3:4
No role at all:
• Church must make politicians accountable, it is them who are destroying everything.
• The Church has become irrelevant. Contemporary Christianity has neither the conceptual resources nor the moral fibre necessary to solve the moral crises plaguing our society today.
• I don't know if it will work but we Nagas as a whole we need refuge, healing, and restoration amidst the turbulence of modern life. In a time of moral complexity, the Church must be a place where the weary are welcomed, where truth is spoken with love, and where the soul can reconnect with divine purpose. In our Nagaland scenario, we really need a strong foundation of peace and stability that is essential for addressing the deeper issues affecting our community.
• Internet and wide immigration from India, bringing their cultural behaviour is one of the reasons. You can look it as a soft cultural change in the Naga society, this has not only happening to the Naga society but other cultures too. Different culture cannot be mixed and by time the dominant ones will have more influences on the social and moral crisis.
• The irony of the question lies in its assumption that the Church is merely a solution to the crisis, when it must also confront the extent to which it has been an active participant in shaping the social and moral realities it is now expected to reform.
• Church is politicized as well, targeting specific aspects and turning blind eyes to the rest. It's more like building narratives based on their conveniences. People have lost faith in the institution of Churches.
