Usually the word politeuma is related to Greek city states or poleis. In this context politeuma can mean “government,” “citizenry,” “polity,” or “state,” or, as a technical term, it can refer to the body of citizens who had political rights.1 The Ptolemies seem to have adopted the word politeuma and transferred it to a specific form of association which was apparently destined for organized groups of persons living within an urban area.
This word pops up in St Paul's writings, along with Johns Revelation. when l witness Christians firmly involved in national politics see difficult often corrupted path opening up. Temptation look very many, often finical powers that corrupt.
But there is local to myself at a home l pass frequently. An example of someone being involved in national politics and not being corrupted.

That man, (sorry dears its a man). William WILBERFOCE.
Add to that great list of course Martin Luther king Snr, also point to Bono of U2 along with Bod Geldof, of course one of my heroes is Martin Luther, Elizabeth Fry social reformer around Prisons. Bonhoeffer, “How would you expect to find community while you intentionally withdraw from it at some point? The disobedient cannot believe; only the obedient believe.”
