About CLMI
A Covenant Platform, Not a Church
Understand who we are, what we stand for, and the mandate that drives everything CLMI does.
Covenant Leadership Ministry International (CLMI) also known as Believers in Politics (BiP)is a non-denominational platform aimed at reconciling leaders in both private and public sector to God through a deeper understanding of their calling and Gods agenda and application of the word of god to practical leadership realities.
CLMI is to service all churches of Christ and not to plant a church. It will encourage its members to grow and be more dedicated to the service of God in their churches. New converts to Christ through any of CLMI outreaches and activities would be encouraged to attend any of the existing churches of Christ. CLMI does not have any political ambition but to support existing churches, complement the efforts of these churches to win souls for Christ and to establish such souls in their churches. CLMI is not in any competition with the church of Christ either locally, denominationally or internationally but rather to join in the fulfilment of the end-time agenda of God. CLMI is committed to raising saints to be kings.
CLMI is not to collect tithes as all members are to pay their tithes to their churches. Whatever offering or partnership donations made to CLMI is voluntary and in excess of their regular offering and tithe to their church. CLMI holds monthly fellowship across all the major towns and cities across all nations of the world. This fellowship meetings hold every third Sundays of the month 5 – 7 pm. Also, CLMI holds biannual public lecture every second and last quarer of the year, one national leadership convention holds third quarter of the year and biennal International Leadership convention.

We do not hold to doctrines as a testament or a creed, for the whole Bible and scripture therein is our creed. Whereas we recognise the existence of many different interpretations among churches, denominations and Christians, CLMI affirms the basic beliefs that unite our members — and all genuine Christian believers — making it possible for the work of God to be effectively carried out. This also facilitates the admission of unbelievers and new converts into the fellowship, and ultimately into any church of God. Even so, we state our beliefs for the avoidance of doubt, as a basic threshold and requirement for eligibility into CLMI.
