At first glance, Christians attitudes to words political realities during institutions democratization era in democratic republic of Congo, were opposed one another, but their ideas in agreement as for democraticy’s expectation, failed. And they believe that one day in the way things are going, there will be improvement as expected because DRC is still a young democracy. Therefore, the population of Congo must understand that politic sis not bad, but politicians through their bad deeds make people believe that it is a demilish activity. So, it is wrong to think that Christians have no right to do politics, because voting is their right would unchristians when legislating or making decisions concerning the country, make decisions which will not allow Christians to adore God ?

Abstract
At first glance, Christians attitudes to words political realities during institutions democratization era in democratic republic of Congo, were opposed one another, but their ideas in agreement as for democraticy’s expectation, failed. And they believe that one day in the way things are going, there will be improvement as expected because DRC is still a young democracy. Therefore, the population of Congo must understand that politic sis not bad, but politicians through their bad deeds make people believe that it is a demilish activity. So, it is wrong to think that Christians have no right to do politics, because voting is their right would unchristians when legislating or making decisions concerning the country, make decisions which will not allow Christians to adore God ?

Abstract: (french)
Les attitudes des Chrétiens face aux réalités politiques à l’ère de la démocratisation des institutions en République Démocratique du Congo ont été de prime à bord opposées les unes les autres certes, mais quant à l’attente de ce que la démocratie devait amener comme réalité politique, les idées étaient en accord les unes les autres, que cela a échoué et ils s’y croient qu’un jour et dans la mesure où vont les choses, qu’il y aura de l’amélioration et la transformation tant attendu car le pays est encore dans sa jeune démocratie. Ainsi, la population Congolaise doit comprendre que la politique en soi n’est pas mauvaise mais ce sont des hommes qui l’utilise et qui s’y engage étant animé d’une mauvaise foi qui fait de sorte qu’on voie la politique comme la propriété du diable. D’où nous trouvons que ceux qui pensent que les Chrétiens n’ont pas droit à la politique se trompent, puisque les Chrétiens aussi votent. Et s’il faut les « non-Chrétiens » pour légiférer au parlement ou pour prendre des décisions de l’Etat, imaginer les décisions qu’ils prendront pourront-t-elles permettre aux Chrétiens d’adorer Dieu.
