When I heard Obama say we are not a Christian nation, I got angry, probably like most of you. It also was a little shocking to actually hear someone say it. Why did Obama say it? What purpose does he believe he is serving by announcing this to the world?
I think it’s safe to say that this first overseas trip by Obama has been a nightmare for those of us on the political right. Obama is proving to be every bit as radical as we feared he might be. He is every bit the globalist and anti-American that we tried to portray him as BEFORE the election. The media did a great job of covering for him and making the right seem hysterical in its pronouncements.
He’s already apologized numerous times to numerous countries for numerous perceived wrongs that America has done to those countries in the past. So once more, why bring religion into it?
Obama claims to be a Christian, but is he? A lot of people will quote, “judge not lest ye be judged” (the actual verse is Matt. 7:1 "Do not judge, or you too will be judged.", a sinners favorite Bible verse), as a way of silencing opposition to whatever they are currently promoting. So we dare not judge whether Obama is a Christian as he proclaims. Well, the Bible also says in Matt. 10:33 “but whoever denies me before men, I also will deny before my Father who is in heaven.”
Hmm, “We are not a Christian nation”, so says Obama to a group of men, hmm, denial of Christ before men, hmm. Once more, why would a Christian man like Obama deny this country is Christian?
Well of course, he means we aren’t a theocracy, and we aren’t. But no one has ever claimed that we are. Why deny something that no one thinks? It’s like saying “I didn’t steal from you” to someone you just met. The person is going to immediately be suspicious and wonder what you stole.
The truth is he said this to appease the Muslim audience he was addressing, and to continue his narcissistic desire to be loved by the world. The truth also is that we were founded as, and up until recently have maintained ourselves, as a country based on Judeo-Christian ethics. So Obama didn’t lie, but he did try and imply something to the Turks that wasn’t exactly true either, and in so doing he spoke clearly to me, about his own theology.
Obama has been taught Islam, and now claims Christianity. He has had a diverse life for sure. What his true inner beliefs are, only he can answer, but we as Christians and Americans have the right to try and discern some of those beliefs for ourselves.
As I’ve stated in the past, Islam is easily proven a false religion. It’s not a sister to Judaism or Christianity as it claims, it’s the ravings of a lunatic mind. It’s as much political tome as religious doctrine. It’s beliefs are based on force. Force by killing those that refuse to submit to it’s will. It’s totally legalism, which is exactly the opposite of the salvation offered through Jesus Christ, hmm, opposite of Jesus? Hmm.
As an adult, Obama went to Jeremiah Wrights Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago. I checked out their website, mission statements, Bible curriculum, and several other pages on their website. I found the words Jesus Christ 3 times, total. I found the word Christ 8 times. They claim “the God of our weary years”, which I discovered was from a poem written by James Weldon Johnson, and not from the Bible. Interestingly, I did find the word Black too many times to count, along with Black Community, Black Society, etc. The truth is in reading their website, you get the distinct feel that their mission is about their Blackness more so, than it is about their Savior.
Just to check it out, I looked at a local mega-church’s website. Their mission statement named Jesus Christ directly in 4 of the 16 statements, and says Christ in all 12 of the rest. There is nothing remotely political in any of the statements. No desires for an American theocracy, no classes on protesting abortion clinics, or anything else. It’s all about Jesus Christ, as it should be.
Islam and Trinity United are Obama’s religious experience. Hopefully, there were others more grounded in Christ than these two, but these are the two that seem to have been a part of his life for the longest.
Which brings me back around to my initial reaction, I was angry. After a few moments of thought though, I was just sad. I am sad for Barrack Hussein Obama. I am sad for our country. Of course, we have had non-Christians as President before, but none to my knowledge, have denied our countries heritage in Christianity before now. Sometimes, some things are bigger than politics. This is one of those things for me. I truly pray for Barrack Hussein Obama’s salvation or at least, his re-awakening in Christ. I believe he needs it. I believe we need it.
Cheers!
