Brazil’s President Jair Bolsonaro made a surprise visit to The Send, a worship event in Sao Paulo, saying he ‘believes in Jesus as his Saviour and that Brazil belongs to God,’ it was reported in March.
Bolsonaro hasn’t been quiet about his faith. He considers himself a God-fearing man. His faith was strengthened during his presidential campaign and after he was nearly killed in an assassination attempt.
‘Doctors who attended to me said that for every 100 stabbings of the kind I endured, only one person survives. So, I am a survivor and owe my life to God. It was His will for me to live,’ he said, according to church leaders.
