The Methodist lay preacher Sitiveni Rabuka's party LOGO has
Blood of the Lamb of God, White Dove and Holy Spirit and Green Olive branch, all tied to his fundamentalist Christianity.
Fijileaks: We call on the Elections Supervisor to throw out his insensitive LOGO that is designed to make raw appeal to Christian I-Taukeis. Rabuka should have named his party 'The Lamb of God Party'. We also notice that out of 5,000 signatures, only 25 plus Indo-Fijians have signed his proposed party application

In his application to the Supervisor of Elections, Rabuka explains the proposed People's Alliance Party logo:
*The RED upper hemisphere symbolizes the covering of the BLOOD of the LAMB OF GOD over the Isles of Fiji, valour, courage, enthusiasm, sacrifice, love and life
Note: JESUS was referred to as a lamb as a way to indicate his innocence before his execution, going willingly to the slaughter to provide a means for humans to become blameless in the eyes of God.
*The White Dove, according to Rabuka, acknowledges the presence of the Holy Spirit in, among, and over us. It signifies purity, excellence, honour, and peace. He also claims the Green Olive branch signifies blessings, health, renewal, harmony and hope
Note: In Christian Iconography, a dove also symbolizes the Holy Spirit, in reference to Matthew 3:16 and Luke 3:22 where the Holy Spirit is compared to a dove at the Baptism of Jesus. The dove and olive branch also appeared in Christian images of Noah's Ark
