  • NELSON MANDELA and His Faith How Can It Help Us to Avoid an Inappropriate Relationship
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Stellenbosch University SUNScholar Repository RESEARCH AT STELLENBOSCH 2014 n reviewing related news reports it soon became clear that there was no real certainty Iabout whether Nelson Mandela had any formal relationship with the Christian faith, or with a particular church or Christian denomination. The media reported that he was a member of the Methodist Church of Southern Africa (MCSA), and senior clergy from that denomination featured prominently in the public and private pastoral events surrounding his death and burial. Moreover, it was interesting, although not surprising, to see how keen the church (and Christians) were to claim that he was an adherent of the Christian faith. In addition, I was fascinated by how the governing African National Congress (ANC) used the association between Mandela and the Christian faith, (and the MCSA in particular, which is South Africa’s largest mainline Christian denomination) to engage the Christian constituency in order to win voter support in the lead up to the 2014 National Elections. As a public theologian a couple of questions arose in my mind. Firstly, was it true that Nelson Mandela was a Christian (and if so, in what ways was he Christian)? Secondly, was he a member of a specific Christian NELSON MANDELA and his faith How can it help us to avoid an inappropriate relationship denomination as claimed in the media? Thirdly, why The death of Nelson Mandela on 5 December 2013 were the church and the state so eager to support this put the spotlight on his religious convictions and association between Mandela and South Africa’s largest mainline Christian denomination? faith affiliation.
